Wang Fang was lying on the ridge of a millet field. Behind him were the same lying guards. Hundreds of soldiers sent behind the enemy were all lying here, quietly looking at the officials not far ahead.
He looked up at the secret whistle in the distance. There was no sign of the target. Wang Fang simply turned over, lay on the ridge and looked at the blue sky.
A month ago, after several draws, the front line entered the stalemate stage. The commander personally summoned himself, Xu Yirui, ordered himself as the main general and led a group of sergeants including Li Lu here.
In this valley near the official road, about 300 guards and soldiers were in ambush.
The goal of the guards this time is a group of barbarians.
When they searched a village in Gangcha County, they captured all the people in the village. After eating some people, the barbarians escorted them to Liaoxi to please the elders of Liaoxi town.
The Qin people who got the news informed Fubo, a name that slowly spread in western Liaoning.
There were bursts of yellow sand on the official road. Fu Bo, dressed in gray coarse cloth and short Ru, turned down his horse, threw the reins to the incoming guards, turned his legs, walked to Wang Fang and sat down on the ridge.
"When the barbarians arrive at Wulipo, they will be here soon. Colonel Wang, I'll trouble you this time."
Fubo's voice was a little heavy. It was difficult to fight this battle. There were more than 100 barbarians escorted. With only 600 guards, it was not possible to fight.
"Poof"
Wang Fang spit out the grass leaves he had bitten, and his face was full of disdain.
"Old man, why don't you believe my strength and think I can't take these cannibals?"
Fubo hehe smiled: "my old man can't say that. There are so many famous generals under the Lord's command. It shows that the general must be the best among them. It's not a big problem to win some barbarians."
Although he said this, the smile on fuber's face was less and less. As we all know, a single barbarian is much taller than ordinary people. A barbarian is cleaning up four or five guards, just like playing.
Birds whistled in the distance, and two guards poked their heads out of the valley.
"Here we are, captain."
One of them spoke.
Wang Fang shook the handle of the knife and said, "send a signal to General Li Lu opposite to let them know that the enemy has arrived."
With this, Wang Fang turned over, half knelt on the ground, began to wrap the handle of the knife with cloth strips, and quietly waited for the arrival of the barbarians.
In the opposite millet field, a red flag was raised and shook twice, indicating that they were ready.
There lies another 300 guards.
Wang Fang looked at the red flag disappearing in the millet field, his face became solemn, and ordered the nearby guards to say:
"Brothers, gather your weapons and prepare for war."
The ears of grain in the valley shook, and the ambush sergeants began to gather their weapons and prepare for battle, but the action was fast, and the valley soon calmed down.
The sound of weeping sounded in the distance. The yellow sand floated over with the north wind. The sound of weeping became louder and louder.
Finally, at the end of the winding Huangsha Road, there appeared a barbarian with weapons. Two, three, more and more barbarians appeared, and Qin men, women and children who only reached the waist of the barbarian began to appear in the middle.
These are the captured villagers. If they are caught in western Liaoning, they are the food of barbarians, who are called two legged sheep by barbarians.
The barbarian soldiers marched very fast, but the women and children marched much slower. Children were cut off their heads, thrown up and thrown into the barbarian army. After a moment, only the blood wrapped bones were thrown out.
"Cluck"
When Wang Fang heard that Fu Bo next to him bit his teeth very loudly, he couldn't help gripping the steel knife in his hand. These man eating beasts are really damn.
"Kill"
Suddenly there was a roar wrapped in anger on the other bank. A guard rushed out of the millet field, and the steel knife in his hand glittered with snow in the sunlight.
"Asshole"
Wang Fang scolded how Li Lu unified the army. Before the barbarians entered the trap, they rushed down to fight. This is to fill the barbarians' stomach with life.
"Kill"
More shouts sounded, and the guards ambushed in the opposite Millet Field rushed out one after another with knives.
Most of the generals under Li Lu's command were Qin people, and many of them were from western Liaoning. Maybe someone saw their neighbors or relatives. They couldn't stand their fear and rushed out regardless of the military order.
The lieutenant looked at Wang Fang and chopped the knife heavily on the ground.
Wang Fang took the lead in getting up and waved the steel knife in his hand: "kill"
More guards rushed out.
A moment later, the guards collided with the barbarians, and the killing was loud. The guards fought with the barbarians.
Although the number of guards is large, there is no trap to help. After all, they are not the opponent of barbarians, and fight and retreat.
Wang Fang's face was ugly. He fought with a tall barbarian. With his heavy breath, he fought with the barbarian soldiers. However, as the robes around him retreated, Wang Fang had to retreat.
The hand wrapped cloth has been soaked by the blood of barbarians. When holding the handle of the knife, it feels greasy.
"It's over this time!"
Wang Fang was disappointed. He led the army independently. This was the first time to deal with barbarians. He didn't expect to lose so miserably for the first time.
After following the Lord for so many years, I haven't learned a little skill from the Lord, even ordinary Long Qi ā The ng array can't be put out. The invincible forbidden guards under the prince's command were defeated one by one with six.
"Withdraw"
Seeing paoze fall one by one, the king had to issue a military order to retreat.
After leaving dozens of bodies, the guards withdrew in embarrassment. This ambush failed.
The barbarians did not chase, but after a burst of laughter, they continued to escort the villagers to western Liaoning.
As night fell, Wang Fang's army finally returned to the temporary station.
Treat the wounded paoze, pack up the weapons and boost the morale of the demoralized paoze. The king is very busy.
It was not until the moon rose from the East that he was free to sit down and eat.
Gnawing at the sweet potato in his hand, Wang Fang felt that it was not easy for the governor for the first time. He was busy leading the less than a thousand guards. The hundreds of thousands of soldiers under the governor did not know how tired they were.
"Wow"
The curtain of the door was lifted. Li Lu came in with his pocket handrail and put it on the table in front of Wang Fang. His face was a little ugly.
"Captain, if I don't manage the army strictly, you should punish me."
"The boy who rushed out is Lu Tang. He is from Gangcha county. The village where he was captured is his wife's mother's house. There may be his wife and son."
"Lu Tang is dead. He was cut into two sections by a barbarian. There's no way to bear the military law. I'll bear it for him, captain."
Lilu said in a low voice.
Wang Fang put down the sweet potato, looked at Li Lu standing in front of him and asked in a deep voice.
"Li Lu, you are also a military commander. I never interfere with your control over your own sergeants, but what you just said is not the reason for your lax management of the army."
"Come on, Li Lu doesn't manage the army strictly, whip 20."
"Lu Tang did not obey the military order and went out without authorization, which led to a great defeat and a hundred lashes."
"Li Lu is willing to replace him with a body, whip one hundred and two, and execute it immediately."
Looking at Li Lu caught by the two guards, Wang Fang said in a deep voice.
"I stripped my armor and ate this whip. I'll tell you why I beat you."
