"You guys? If anyone can take care of the thousands of Thule troops outside, I will take back what I just said."
Su Lu said in an understatement, not paying attention to the generals who were at war with each other. What's the use of being arrogant with me? If you have the ability, go be arrogant with the Thule cavalry.
A group of generals withered instantly. It wasn't that they were unmotivated, but it was a guard camp against a thousand-man army. They were really not sure of winning. Luo Chengxing, the commander-in-chief of the Chinese army who had gone to the battle earlier, got himself involved.
If you go up there, you will die. Who dares to go there?
Old Luo Du was so angry that when he scolded my soldiers, he scolded me. But looking at these dejected generals, the old man was helpless. These grandsons couldn't live up to their expectations. They didn't even have anyone who could fight.
Deputy Marshal Xiao sounded helpless and spoke: "Su Lu, don't talk nonsense. The Thule Thousand-man Army is not easy to deal with. Your guard camp has just been formed. Going to battle will only cost your life. Don't show off."
Old Luo Du refused: "Why, you dare not go into battle if you dare to speak big words. Su Lu, if you don't dare to go into battle, I will punish you for making noise in front of the army today and kill you. Li Huaihua will not dare to say anything."
."
Su Lu laughed at him: "Wait and watch me go up and defeat the Thule people."
Seeing Su Lu go out, Luo Du waved his hand to the Guards, and the captain ducked out of the camp to monitor Su Lu.
Deputy Marshal Xiao opened his mouth to ease the awkward atmosphere in the big tent: "Okay, everyone, let's discuss how to defeat this Thule Thousand-man Army. Let him show off his power every day, and his morale has dropped again and again. In the next battle,
This is our doom."
Luo Du also frowned. As the commander of the First Army, although he was not very capable, he also knew that if things continued like this, the defeat of the Beizheng Camp would be inevitable sooner or later. However, these days he had exhausted everything he could think of.
The method was still useless, and the guard camp was defeated repeatedly against the thousand-man team.
The generals looked at their noses with their eyes and their hearts with their noses, like clay and wood sculptures, motionless.
Luo Du sighed, feeling as if he had been fed shit. Nepotism is a big deal! These grandsons all got the title of general by giving away money. None of them got the rank based on their ability to fight. The next battle will be
How to fight, Luo Du became more and more confused.
"Boom"
A head was thrown to the ground with a dull sound, and Su Lu strode in with a proud look on his face.
I was lucky today. As soon as I commanded the guards to pull out of the battle formation, the Thule people bumped into them, and they ran directly into the center of the crab formation, and most of them were stabbed to death by the spear formation.
The commander of Thule was killed on the spot, and the Thule soldiers who lost their command were in complete chaos. As soon as the pikemen made an attack, the cavalry was divided and surrounded. Except for one group that broke through the encirclement by relying on their numerical advantage, the rest were all killed.
The head of Captain Tule rolled a few times and stopped in front of Zhao Pu, the commander of the Dingxiang Army. On his bloody face, his eyes were wide open and stared at Zhao Pu, making Zhao Pu feel scared for no reason.
The Guardsman bent over and walked to Luo Du's side. He whispered a few words. Luo Du's eyes changed when he looked at Su Lu. Well, his expression felt as if he had eaten shit twice.
Deputy Marshal Xiao stood up, walked to Zhao Pu, squatted down, picked up the blood-stained head by his hair, and looked at it carefully.
"Tsk, tsk, it's true that the Thousand Commander of Thule has a protruding bone. This guy fought bravely and defeated six or seven of our guard camps. He finally fell into our hands."
"very nice!"
Deputy Commander Xiao's face twitched, and his whole body seemed to be trembling. He was so excited.
Luo Du looked at Su Lu, his face turned gloomy, and he finally spoke: "Although I am very unhappy, Su Lu, you defeated the Thule Thousand-man Army, and I will keep my word, what reward do you want?
"
Su Lu was not happy when he heard this: "What kind of reward do I want? Of course I want to be promoted to a higher position and get money. If that doesn't work, you have to satisfy me with these three things, right?"
The surrounding governors looked confused. How could you still say it so bluntly, okay?
Zhao Pu looked disgusted. This Su Lu is too vulgar. Just think about it in your mind. It would be wrong to say it directly. No, I have to find an opportunity to teach him this etiquette later. By the way, I can also ask him how to defeat Tu with his infantry.
Le's Cavalry Thousands.
Luo Du's face was as dark as a pot sticker, and he almost threw out the chess card arrow he was holding. Luo Du had seen many rebellious generals and lieutenants, but he was as shameless as Su Lu, so he really didn't pay attention.
Pass.
"It's impossible to get promoted to an official position. I can reward you with some silver. Come, go to the treasury and take out 10,000 taels and give it to Captain Su to take away."
"Only ten thousand taels?"
Su Lu was a little reluctant. Isn't this amount a bit too small? You should know that he defeated a thousand-man team and captured several kilograms of gold.
Luo Du waved his hands like he was shooing away flies: "Twelve thousand taels, no more, so hurry up and leave. My heart aches when I see you now."
Su Lu followed the messenger with a smile, went to the warehouse, handed over twelve thousand taels of silver, and then slowly returned to the supply camp.
A group of guards who were waiting for news in the baggage camp gathered around and asked expectantly:
"Captain, the commander-in-chief, are you going to give us an official or a promotion? You can't just give us some verbal rewards."
"I think it's because of the promotion title. The commander-in-chief can't promote us to captaincy. If General Huaihua doesn't nod, our guard camp can't improve the establishment."
"I can't increase my official rank, and I don't have any honors. This battle is a frustrating one."
A group of guardsmen were talking and discussing angrily. They had just defeated the Thule people in one fell swoop, and their excitement was gone.
Su Lu said a few words to the guards pulling the silver cart, threw a few copper coins each, and drove them away.
"There are ten thousand taels here, each of the brothers has 11 taels, and the rest, the brothers who died in the battle, each have 500 taels."
Li Kun said with a face of injustice: "Second brother, this division is not enough. The living brothers will divide 8,000 taels, and the twenty-one dead will have 10,500 taels. This is not enough at all."
ah."
Su Ping, who was rummaging around in the money box, suddenly lost his composure. He held the money with a look of disbelief on his face: "So, after a battle, we lost money. We might as well have suppressed the bandits in Beiyang."
What about making money?”
Han Shang next to him nodded heavily, this is the reason.
Su Lu was speechless. What the hell, even the brothers' pensions were not enough. This war was a loss.
Damn, I'll never do such a thankless job again. Come on, I'll just continue to transport food.
"Don't look at it anymore, pack up and get ready to hit the road. Let's continue to transport food and kill all the bandits in Beizheng. We can earn some money to send our brothers on their way."
All the guards agreed with a loud voice, turned around one after another, packed up their armor, and urged the civilians under their control to prepare to return to Beiyang.
Outside the crowd, Lao Wang, a citizen husband, curiously asked the unhappy old cat:
"Hey, brother, how much money do you get for the death of a Guardsman? Only twenty-one people died, why do you need more than 10,000 taels? I have been with many Guardsmen, and they have killed hundreds of people, and there are no
That’s a lot of pension money.”
Old Mao rolled his eyes at Lao Wang and said, "You know what the hell, those officials drink the soldiers' blood and receive their pay. We, the captains, are good people. Each of us receives a pension of five hundred taels."
"Five hundred taels"
Lao Wang lost his composure, rubbed his hands, looked left and right, lowered his voice, and asked Lao Mao: "Brother, do you still need someone? I can drive horses and take care of animals. If it doesn't work, I'll give it to you."
