Volume 15 The winner is the king Chapter 1215 North into the pool
The sky is very high and blue, the mountains are very high and it is difficult to climb, and the road is really dangerous.
This is a path to enter the Chihe Empire. Because it is too difficult to walk, I usually don’t see a passerby here for many years. At this time, people passing by are lined up.
Not only people, but also horses, animals, and beautiful female generals...
The trencher was stuck on the mountain road again, and the soldiers next to him rushed up and pryed with iron rods. This was not the first time they did such a job, but every time was the same as before, but it took a lot of effort.
"This road is not easy to walk." Lin Zhengfeng shook his head and complained. In order to achieve the goal of secretly entering the Chihe Empire, they chose an extremely difficult road this time. This road is really not easy to walk. Just the third day, more than 100 soldiers had an accident. What made Lin Zhengfeng's face was that all the soldiers who had the accident were his An Rong soldiers, and only one soldier on Hu You's side wiped his hands lightly.
After reaching a cooperation agreement with Hu You, Lin Zhengfeng joined Hu You's troops with 50,000 Anrong troops. This is not Lin Zhengfeng's stingyness. Hu You only paid 50,000 for 100,000 for 50,000, but he really doesn't have so many soldiers that he can take advantage of.
Before seeing Hu You's soldiers, Lin Zhengfeng didn't think there was anything wrong with his soldiers. But after seeing Hu You's soldiers, he suddenly realized that many of his soldiers could not be considered soldiers. After spending a lot of effort, Lin Zhengfeng could only barely get 50,000 elite soldiers. Now it seems that his 50,000 elite soldiers are still not very good.
"Yeah." Hu You frowned deeply. Before he set out on the road, he had already predicted that the road would not be too easy. But when he really walked, he realized that he still didn't think about the difficulties. It was still sunny now, and the road was already so difficult. It would be even more difficult to catch up with the rain and snow.
"But this is our only way." Hu You shook his head. They had no other choice.
Is there a good way to go?
Of course there are, but the easy-to-go road is even more dangerous. No matter how confidential the troops are, they cannot avoid the Chihe people's exploration. Once they lose the card of surprise attack, they want to use 150,000 people to defeat the Chihe Empire. That is a joke.
Night fell again, and it was difficult to walk on the mountain road during the day, so it was even more impossible to rush around overnight. Along the mountain road, the soldiers camped on the spot. Last night, soldiers slept until midnight and rolled directly under the cliff. They had to be careful to set up camp tonight.
"I can't take a shower, so I feel so uncomfortable all over." Ouyang Shuixian pouted and hummed. She hadn't had to take a shower for three days. The Narcissus had lost water and almost turned into a stinky water.
Girls can tolerate many things. But it’s really unbearable to not be able to take a bath. Girls love beauty, but they are all sweaty all over their body, which is so beautiful.
Hu You came in from outside and heard Ouyang Shuixian's words, and smiled and said, "Soldiers discovered the water spring. If you are not afraid of the cold water, you can go and wash it."
"Really?" Ouyang Shuixian's eyes lit up and she jumped to Hu You's side.
Hu You nodded and said, "Of course it's true, but this is in the mountains. There are many things, so be careful when you go there."
Ouyang Shuixian's face became a little uncomfortable. Those things refer to ghosts but snakes and insects. Ouyang Shuixian was not afraid of anything else, but was afraid of snakes and could not even listen to them, so Hu You could only use that thing instead.
"Can't you drive them away?" Ouyang Shuixian hesitated.
Hu You burst into laughter. When this girl was not fighting, she was not much different from ordinary girls and she was not very smart. She didn't even know where the snakes were and when they would come out. It was so easy to drive them away.
"Don't laugh, I don't care, I want to take a shower." Ouyang Shuixian hummed unreasonably. It is natural for women to be unreasonable, and whether they are princesses or civilians, they have unreasonable freedom.
"Okay, okay, let's have a meal first, I'll help you think of a solution after dinner." Hu You shook his head helplessly. Of course, there were more ingredients in the pretendings. When he discovered the water source before, he had already asked the soldiers to make arrangements. Not only Ouyang Shuixian was the only female general and female soldier in the army, taking a bath was their welfare.
Ouyang Shuixian smiled sweetly when she saw Hu You compromise. She knew that as long as Hu You nodded, there would definitely be a way.
"Hey, you are the only one of the young men?" Lin Zhengfeng came in and found Hu You sitting there alone, and couldn't help but feel a little strange.
Hu You said angrily: "Then how many people do you want?"
After using the meal, Hu You asked Zhe not to accompany Ouyang Shuiyuan to take a bath. Ouyang Shuiyuan was afraid of snakes, but Zhe not afraid of it. Zhe was very bitter when she was a child. Snake used to be her food source, so why would she be afraid?
"It's just a bit strange. Young Master, how about we drink something." Lin Zhengfeng was originally here to look for Hu You, and he just asked casually.
Hu You knew that Lin Zhengfeng must have something to come, so he nodded and asked Lin Zhengfeng to sit down. Lin Zhengfeng brought his own drinks, so Hu You didn't need to do anything.
Lin Zhengfeng's wine was good, and the room was filled with fragrance. As he drank it, Lin Zhengfeng frowned.
Hu You asked: "Are you worried about the rain?"
"If the young marshal already knew, a few experienced people under my command told me that this rain would not be small, and there would be problems with the mountains and roads."
Lin Zhengfeng is actually a good general, at least he is quite concerned about the soldiers. Although he cannot eat and live with soldiers like Hu You, it is rare to be able to care about the warmth and warmth of soldiers as an emperor. Hu You only took this into consideration and helped him in all aspects many times. Otherwise, Lin Zhengfeng would have no chance of taking the throne of An Rong.
"The sky is full of yellow clouds, and the rain is really not small. But you don't have to worry. Although the rocks here are dangerous, they are relatively stable, and there will be no mudslides or even more terrible disasters."
"That's good." Lin Zhengfeng felt much more at ease after hearing Hu You's words. Hu You experienced natural disasters in Dingsi, and only a dozen people left to survive were known. The shape of the land here is so similar to Dingsi. Lin Zhengfeng is afraid that he will experience it.
In the middle of the night, heavy rain came as promised. Lightning broke through the night sky, and the rain seemed to swallow the whole world. On the mountain road, tens of thousands of tents were swaying in the wind and rain...
************************************************
The mountain road finally came to an end. It was really not easy. In a full fifteen days, after losing nearly a thousand soldiers, the 150,000 troops were finally about to walk out of the damn mountain road.
I am afraid that even in the diary, many people are reluctant to recall the difficulties of these fifteen days. Not only did they experience a heavy rainstorm, they also had to be on guard against the venomous snakes and insects that had crawled into the tent at any time, and the danger of accidentally rolling off the cliff. If Hu You had not made many arrangements before entering the march, I am afraid that more than a thousand lives were buried here, that number would be much more.
Ouyang Shuixian, who was most energetic, was already in a daze, and lowered her head listlessly. The mountain road in the last few days was the most difficult to walk, and even she was weak in her feet.
Lin Zhengfeng's face was also very bad. This was the most difficult path he had ever walked in his life, no doubt about it.
Hu You looked at the plains in the distance and breathed a long sigh. He actually lost more than a thousand soldiers along the way, which was what he had not expected. He joined the army for more than a dozen, and lost so many soldiers during the march. This was the second experience, and the first time was naturally the Dingsi natural disaster.
However, these losses are worth it. It only takes a day to get to Jincheng, the capital of Chihe. If you follow the normal channel and fight all the way, even if you win in a row, you will lose at least 100,000 soldiers. And you can't achieve the goal of a surprise attack, and the final harvest will definitely be failure.
"I finally came out...wait, what are you?"
Before Hu You finished speaking, his face changed immediately. Wherever he saw, the troops of the Chihe Empire appeared. The armor reflected a dazzling light in the sun. Yes, it must be Hechi soldiers, and they were heavy armored cavalry.
Was he ambushed?
A very bad thought flashed through Hu You's mind. If that was the case, their half-month hardship would be in vain. But how could that be possible? This march was highly confidential. Before entering the mountain road, few people knew about the march route this time. And those who entered the mountain road were even more impossible to reveal the news.
Is it an ambush in advance or a coincidence? Hu You has no time to guess now. Chi He soldiers have obviously discovered the situation here. They are already in the array and are about to rush over. Once they get closer, it will be a disaster for Hu You.
The mountain road was too difficult to walk, and almost no war horses followed the army could come successfully. Their 150,000 troops were all infantry. Infantry encountered cavalry without arranging troops, and they were alive and died, and even Hu You could not stop the disaster.
The only way now is to not have the situation where infantry directly faces cavalry.
"Ouyang Narcissus!" Hu You shouted.
"At." Ouyang Shuixian also discovered the enemy situation over there and forced herself to keep her whole body energized.
"I'll order you to bring five thousand soldiers to fight the small hill on the right and hold the enemy back."
"yes!"
Ouyang Shuixian carried out Hu You's order without hesitation, although she knew it was an almost mortal order. The high ground was not very high, and could only slow down the enemy's impact speed and could not stop the cavalry from rushing up.
Infantry is at a disadvantage against the cavalry. The soldiers had just experienced a long journey of fifteen days and had not even drunk a sip of water. They had to work hard to fight, which would be even more difficult.
Although Ouyang Shuixian acted coquettishly in front of Hu You like a little girl who had not grown up, she was the few outstanding female generals in the world. Since Ximen Yufeng gradually withdrew from the command of the army, Ouyang Shuixian is now the first female general of the Immortal Legion.
Ouyang Shuixian's battle flag was raised, and various flag words were constantly typing out. After receiving the order, a team of soldiers immediately followed Ouyang Shuixian's military order. At this moment, the powerful combat ability of the Immortal Legion was revealed. Five thousand people quickly separated from the troops, seized the high ground, established temporary positions, and quickly completed pre-war preparations.
The whole action was like flowing water, and there was no sound except for the sound of footsteps and the sound of some soldiers crying and touching armor.
Lin Zhengfeng had long known that the Immortal Bird Legion had the nickname of Silent Death, and this time he finally saw it. Compared to the others, An Rongbing's chaos really made Lin Zhengfeng blush. But he was also very glad that his decision was. Choosing to cooperate with Hu You instead of starting a war was definitely the most right thing he did in his life.
The earth was trembling constantly. Even if you didn't look at it, you could feel the strength of the enemy's cavalry. Suddenly, you saw the enemy's heavy armored cavalry appear here. Many people were panicked. But when they saw Ouyang Shuixian and others leading people to fight for the position for a while, their hearts couldn't help but calm down. Girls were not afraid of you, the ones who brought birds, weren't afraid of birds.
At this time, Ouyang Shuixian was almost a goddess in the eyes of the soldiers. She gave the soldiers the strength to fight. The soldiers who received the orders tried their best to do what they should do, and the soldiers who did not receive the orders were also ready at any time.
Hu You didn't know that sending Ouyang Shuixian to the head would have such a role. The reason why he was called Ouyang Shuixian was because Ouyang Shuixian was very capable and her troops were at the nearest position. As a general, Hu You just made the most correct decision.
The order to Ouyang Shuixian was just the beginning, and Hu You's orders followed one by one. Because I didn't expect that I would encounter the enemy's cavalry as soon as I came out, and the heavy defensive weapons in the army had not yet been assembled at heavy level.
This time, Hu You's troops brought the bed crossbow made by Weiwei's latest invention. The bed crossbow is similar to the chariot crossbow, but it has a big difference. The chariot crossbow can only emit one arrow at a time, while the chariot crossbow can fire five at a time. These five are not arrows, but are the spears more than two meters long in the hands of soldiers. The chariot crossbow directly uses the spear as a launch weapon, and uses extremely strong power to fire five spears at the same time.
The spear was driven by the power of the crossbow, and its power was very terrifying. When Hu You was testing the shooting, he saw with his own eyes that the spear shot by Weiwei used the crossbow to penetrate the city wall more than two feet thick. This thing was even more amazing when shooting on the war horses. It was not pierced through, but directly smashed. Even the war horses and cavalry, and a spear were smashed.
This kind of bed crossbow is undoubtedly a good weapon against heavy armored cavalry. Hu You is now ordering people to assemble the bed crossbow. The bed crossbow is too big. It is impossible to move the whole thing. When crossing the mountain road, it was dismantled into small pieces and carried by soldiers. It takes some time to assemble, and this time depends on Ouyang Shuixian.
Ouyang Shuixian ignored other things. She only knew that Hu You's order was to prevent the enemy's cavalry from breaking into the main formation. As long as she had all her strength to complete this one.
In order to boost morale, Ouyang Shuixian personally beat the war drum.
"kill."
This is the sound of Chihe cavalry rushing up, and they need to shout to improve their courage.
Ouyang Shuixian did not respond with a voice. They used the arrows in their hands to tell each other that it would cost the price to rush up, the price of life.
The arrows were like rain and wine towards the Chihe Army, hitting the heavy armor and making a jingle sound. This sound was not a good thing for Ouyang Shuixian. It means that the arrows had no effect on the cavalry.
"Shoot the horse." Ouyang Shuixian cried.
I don’t know where the troops of Chihe jumped out, but even the horses were armed. Fortunately, the horses were not completely covered, and there were still some opportunities to shoot.
The people of Chihe smiled grimly. They were just passing by here, but they didn't expect to suddenly meet an enemy. This is a military merit that fell from the sky.
They didn't care about the beautiful female general who was commanding in front of the formation. Although they were both countries on the Tianfeng Continent, the Hechi Empire and the Mandala Empire were different, and there were no female soldiers here. The status of women in the Chihe Empire was relatively low and they were not qualified to go to the battlefield as much as Ben.
"General Ouyang, the side is dangerous." Chihe cavalry took advantage of the heavy armor and rushed straight to the position in a arrogant manner. Although the soldiers had shot the horses with all their might, the horses were also armed, and it was not easy to shoot, and the side was almost suddenly.
"Let the spear team go up, even if you die, you have to resist it." Ouyang Shuixian said angrily.
The soldiers of a thousand spears left the position. Although time was very tight, they still tried hard to set up some small formations. Facing the enemy cavalry's rushing, they did not take a step back, and formed two in groups, clutching the spears together, pointing the sharp tip directly to the enemy.
The enemy's war horses may be able to trample them into meat paste, but even if they die, they will leave a memory for the enemy.
The cavalry and spearmen collided heavily, and the air instantly exuded a strong sense of blood. The soldiers' humble groans and the writhing of war horses formed a blood-red oil painting.
Ouyang Shuixian's eyes were all red. A thousand spearmen only hit the enemy for ten minutes before the entire army was covered. However, their blood did not flow in vain. Those arrogant Chihe cavalry were afraid. Ouyang Shuixian could see fear in their eyes.
"Follow me!"
Ouyang Shuixian pulled out the battle knife and jumped out of the position. At this moment, she didn't care about so much.
"General Ouyang, you can't go." A general stopped Ouyang Shuixian. What kind of tricks are you doing? Let Ouyang Shuixian go up to fight in person, that's great.
"Let us go, if we can't do it, General Ouyang, you go again."
Another deputy general said as he pulled out his long sword and jumped out of the position first.
There are soldiers of the generals. The general is not afraid of it, and the soldiers dare to fight to the death. At this moment, even Ouyang Shuixian is about to rush forward, and the soldiers' anger is ignited.
What's so great about it? Don't you just have horses? Don't you know that it's popular now!
The soldiers behind saw the bravery from the side, and took the initiative to ask for the battle. Their comrades were fighting to death with their lives, and they couldn't watch them from the side. (...)
