Chapter 794(1/2)
The darker, slower, and colder it gets, in the strong wind, you can only hear the furious sounds of the sky and the earth, as if there is some giant beast hidden in the dark night, trying to swallow people up!
Zhao Yun stood on the horse with his back straight and his ears pricked, ready to fight at any time!
He said to the people in the scout camp: "Call back all the people who have been left outside! At this moment, the less noise the better. This will reduce the risk of being discovered!"
The people in the scout camp agreed and took the order and left!
This place is very close to Jizhou. If one's position and purpose are revealed due to the existence of the scouts placed outside, then this raid is destined to fail.
The word "surprise" lies in the word "sudden", which means that the enemy is not prepared. If the opponent is prepared because he has obtained military information, it will not be sudden. This is not called a surprise attack, but a head-on battle! This is fatal.
p>
With the huge disparity in military strength between the two sides, you want to engage in a head-on battle?! Unless you are crazy!
How many people does Zhao Yun have at this time? Since there are not enough people and the reinforcement may not be timely, the vanguard battalion must be sudden, and then it must be the most mobile existence. Only in this way can it use the least amount of energy.
of troops to achieve the greatest results! This is the meaning of a surprise attack!
Therefore, the closer he is to the target, the more cautious Zhao Yun will be. He has begun to withdraw his eyes and recall most of the people in the scout camp!
Zhao Yun walked along the ice front, listening to the surroundings with his ears upright, and vigilantly observing the darkness and void on both sides of the river, fearing that something might happen, such as an enemy attack suddenly coming to intercept him in the middle of crossing the river, which would be fatal.
!If this happens at this time, then the march will be more than just interrupted. Maybe the entire army will not be annihilated in the process, but it will definitely be at a huge price of blood! Countless historical experiences and war experiences have proven that when the army crosses the river,
A sudden attack in the middle of the attack will definitely achieve the most important victory.
Therefore, Zhao Yun did not dare to be careless, even if the scouts had reported that there was no Yuan Jun nearby. But he still did not dare to be careless, not even the slightest bit careless!
He couldn't afford the price of failure, not because he couldn't explain to Lu Xian if he lost, but because these people were his brothers, the people who followed him through life and death. When he was a bandit, they followed him.
During the reign of the Lu family, they also followed him, willing to go through life and death for him and never give up their loyalty. Zhao Yun was not willing to let them lose their lives because of his own carelessness. He had already tied his head to the body of Yurong after delivering this body of flesh and blood to the army.
On the waistband, I have already staked my life for glory.
However, Zhao Yun always believes that death must be glorious. You can sacrifice your life for the battle and get credit.
But if the general dies because of his carelessness, this is absolutely unforgivable. Zhao Yun is responsible for them and himself.
If it was really because he was not professional or responsible enough and he was careless and caused them to lose their lives, with his good cultivation, he would definitely blame himself. A person with a conscience must blame himself.
Those who refuse to forgive themselves. Those who are willing to bear the blame for this!
Therefore, Zhao Yun acted like this because he was responsible for his own conscience. In order not to bear the debt of conscience due to negligence!
Marching across the river is slow, elongating everything, as if time is endless. At the same time, it is also a silent march.
What supports them is a desire to win and a sense of comradeship that pulls each other apart!
The wind was so strong that people were almost dry and cracked, and their faces hurt!
Slowly, like a turtle crossing the ice, it took a lot of time to finally cross the ice in the river safely. Only now did Zhao Yun truly breathe a sigh of relief!
They immediately counted the number of people, took off the things wrapped under the horses' hooves, quickly packed them up, got on the horses, followed Zhao Yun, stopped the flag, but only galloped the horses, and quickly started to march towards Yanjin at night!
Although we are only on both sides of the river, we can clearly feel the differences in climate. The south of the river and the north of the river are so different!
Mi Heng only felt that he was getting colder! The wind from the north made his whole body dry and cracked, which was particularly uncomfortable!
The generals around Zhao Yun looked back at him on horseback and said nothing, but their expressions were very cold. It was as if they were watching a play!
Then they looked at each other subtly, snorted slightly, and exchanged a meaningful look that only they understood.
It’s no wonder that Ni Heng was so cold that he was dying. Because when he was crossing the river, there were soldiers holding his horse across the river for him. He sat still on the horse the whole time. In winter, in fact, direct contact with the ice may not necessarily
It's colder than sitting still.
They worked hard when crossing the river. After they actually reached the shore, they started running. In fact, the blood in their bodies began to flow with hot air, which warmed their bodies quickly!
Horse riding is a technical and physical activity. It is also an exercise that requires the whole body to exert force. Therefore, the amount of exercise is also very large. Even if your face hurts, your hands are cold, and your feet are cold, your body will actually warm up very quickly.
But Mi Heng was different. After he landed on the shore, he hitched the horse to the cart and sat directly on the cart!
It is impossible to be too detailed when marching in the army, such as having charcoal basins and the like. This is impossible.
Therefore, Mi Heng almost felt cold all over, and he couldn't feel anything in his limbs. The longer he sat in the car, the colder he got.
The faces of the cavalrymen and generals on horseback were slightly steaming and full of blood, which was in sharp contrast to his pale complexion!
There is almost no blood on Mi Heng’s face! His whole body is shaking! It’s freezing!
It was impossible for the generals to chat while they were marching, so no one paid any attention to him. They pretended not to see him and kept on going.
When the morning light rose, I looked behind a mountain and started to rest. I gave the horses water and fodder. The horses were very tired. After eating and drinking enough, I started to rest on the spot!
Horses must be given time to rest, otherwise they will not be able to run fast. In fact, if they keep running, their efficiency will become slower.
It is normal for an attacking army to stay awake for several days. Therefore, although they are tired, they dare not really sleep. Once they fall asleep deeply, they will not be able to get up, which will make them even more tired.
It only took two days. They would rather be tired and sleepy and risk their lives to complete the fight in one go, rather than rest in the middle and get tired.
While the horses were resting, they drank some water, ate some cakes, and rested their bellies.
When the cold pancakes arrived in my stomach, I felt that the rising blood was used to warm these things again, and my whole body felt cold again.
A sergeant whispered: "It's a pity that the horses have to rest, otherwise they would have been driving all the time, and the people would have been warmer! Why does it feel like the more I sit, the colder it gets?!"
"Isn't it just that the more you sit, the colder it gets? Look at our military advisor." When the word "strategist" came out of his mouth, there was an inexplicable ironic smile, and many sergeants laughed secretly.
Zhao Yun never said that Mi Heng was a strategist, and no one thought that he was a strategist, so he deliberately said this now to express general disapproval!
The sergeants have always been straightforward. If they like it, they like it, and if they are convinced, they are convinced. If they don't like it, they can still express it correctly. They don't hide much!
"Look at someone so arrogant, looking like a woman!" A sergeant laughed and said, "Only women ride in cars! You are a man, but it's too cold to ride in a car. That's right!"
It is not cold for them to ride horses and run long distances. Most of the time, they are afraid that the saddle will hurt their legs. Therefore, they only use their legs and lie on the horse's back to reduce the resistance of the wind and to prevent their buttocks and thighs from being damaged.
I have suffered too much, so I use all my strength, but I am not very cold.
A sergeant came over and said: "Our military advisor needs hot water to drink now. His teeth are too cold and his stomach feels uncomfortable. The general has no choice but to light a fire for him and boil water for him!"
p>
When the generals heard this from a distance, they were furious. They turned to look at Ni Heng, wishing they could eat him!
Now that he is on the road to attack, doesn't he know how risky it is to light a fire?!
Everyone gritted their teeth and felt extremely unhappy!
Are you serving grandpa or grandma?!
Even women are not as arrogant as him!
"There are so many things wrong with people!" the sergeant muttered, and then said with a sneer: "They might have to use hot water to make tea!"
What a leisurely mood!
Everyone feels like a ball of fire has been thrust into their hearts, not to mention the anger in their hearts!
There was a general who couldn't bear it any longer. He stood up suddenly, clenched his fists and was about to go, as if he was going to beat someone.
"What are you doing?!" The people around him hurriedly grabbed him and said, "The general will just let him give in. If you beat him, you will only be happy for a while, but what will be the consequences?! If you break the military law, even the general can't protect you.
, I’ll have you beheaded in public! It’s a big taboo to commit the following offense!”
"Even a breath of bad breath will make him angry!" The general sneered, "Should we just let him go?! No, I won't beat him. I'll just advise the general to ask him to stay, so as not to go to the front line. He really doesn't like him!"
”
Everyone said: "Are you stupid?! We went to perform meritorious service in the cold, but he felt comfortable at the back. How could such a good thing?! It would be better to let him go to the front line and follow the army. He would be cold and endure this attack.
He must face the pain of the battlefield and see that the bloody power of the blade is what he should face. It would be better for you to become confused and want to keep him?! What are you thinking?!"
The general thought about it carefully and realized that it was indeed the case, so he became speechless.
The generals pulled him to sit down again.
"Leave him here, in case he is captured, the general will eventually lead us to find him. I'm afraid it will be truly endless trouble. Only when we go to the battlefield, life and death will depend on it. If he is really killed by the enemy,
It is also his life, not our fault. Do you understand?!"
Got it!
The generals nodded in disbelief and endured not mentioning it!
But when they set off again, the generals looked at the carriages and horses with extremely unkind eyes!
Mi Heng occasionally encountered their unkind eyes, as fierce as wolves, and was very surprised.
A conceited person like him may not be someone who is willing to stoop down to understand ordinary people, let alone a warrior. For a person like him who is well-read in poetry and has a high self-esteem, these people are no different from savages!
Because he has never been baptized by poetry and books, how can a general have any conversation with him because he does not understand etiquette?!
So he never thought that this was his problem and didn't bother to understand it.
He didn't think deeply about this kind of look that showed disgust. He just thought it was the vulgar behavior of vulgar people. He didn't take it to heart!
Of course, he understands Zhao Yun very well, and they can get along well with each other. Although Zhao Yun is a warrior, he is not like a military general at all. He is elegant and polite, good at martial arts, and has a handsome face. Therefore, this is based on appearance.
Zhao Yun has absolutely no objection to human shortcomings.
And he knows nothing about committing public outrage!
This is actually another kind of conceit! I think that I am different from others and should be respected and held up by others. I have never thought that if you want to gain respect from others, you must first pay respect and cultivation yourself.
To be continued...
