Chapter 636 Wind and Snow
Cheng Mo and his party did not turn southeast to meet Hua Luo's baggage army, but turned northeast to the Wu army camp near Wusun.
This 50,000 army was led by General Anyuan, a third-grade general named Kang Cheng. General Anyuan was a third-grade miscellaneous general, much lower than General Anton of Qiao Jie. He had been holding back for most of his life and had a rare opportunity to go to war. He wanted to make a great fortune and go further and get a second-grade general. In the least, he also went from a miscellaneous general to a four-grade general like Qiao Jie. Unexpectedly, he was sent to the Wusun border and used as a decoration.
Kang Cheng was so angry that he grinded his teeth, so he just cursed Qiao Jie. Is General Si'an amazing? Is there anyone bullying like this? Yesterday Qiao Jie informed him that he would respond at any time, and he was so angry that his beard stood upright. Qiao Jie could have the credit, so he treated him as a strong man. Did he go on a war and not get the ground back at all?
Kang Cheng was so angry that he couldn't sleep. He left the tent before dawn. He saw heavy snow falling, and the snow in the open space in front of the tent was three or four inches deep.
"Send the order and send three additional sentries to the distance of thirty miles to detect. Each battalion cannot control its armor, so it will be ordered at any time." Kang Cheng lets the snowflakes fall on the armor and ordered solemnly.
No matter how dissatisfied with Qiao Jie's greed, he held all the credit in his hand, and could not let the 50,000 soldiers in his hand become lambs to be slaughtered. It was a good time for the enemy to attack. It was located on the borders of the Xiongnu, Wusun, and Wucha. The Xiongnu and Wusun might be out in the snow, so he could not be careful.
The stagnant pillar moved away, and a group of sentries left the camp.
Kang Cheng looked up at the sky. The sky was gray. I don’t know how long it would take to fall. He sighed and threw 50,000 soldiers here for no reason to eat the snow. His life was at risk at any time. The emperor was unreliable and the prime minister was not reliable. It was just a pity for those young lives.
While slandering Liu Xun, he cursed Cheng Mo secretly and walked slowly into the tent. In recent days, he has been scolding Cheng Mo a lot. Of course, he was muttering alone in the tent, but he didn't dare to reveal it. Qiao Jie was recommended by Cheng Mo. He was blind and recommended Qiao Jie as the main general with a corrupt character. Who would he scold?
Cheng Mo didn't know that Princess Jieyou wanted to borrow the commander of Wu Jun who was fighting for power, and she was so idle every day that she scolded him for playing? He was now running to Kangcheng, and I don't know if it was considered to be a trap.
It snowed when it was almost dawn, and the goose feathers were snowing heavily. The visibility was less than two feet long. I could only run forward by instinct. Such a marching method was very dangerous. If there was a trap along the way, people and horses would fall down without any corpses. But there was no way. The 20,000 cavalry of King Youguli and Hu Yanti's army might catch up at any time. Cheng Mo had only 1,500 people. If he was surrounded, it would not be enough to even put people in the gaps.
The snow was getting heavier and heavier, and the armor on his body was so frozen that he could not even hold the reins in his hands, but the entire team was still moving forward, moving forward, moving forward.
Cheng Mo was worried that Su Miaohua could not bear the pain of wind and snow, so he asked her to ride with him. Although he ran on the snow for a long distance, he was stronger than other horses and could not bear it. Su Miaohua sat behind him, and he blocked most of the wind and snow for her.
Su Miaohua shook her head decisively. As soon as her lips opened, Fengxue surged into her mouth. Su Miaohua said a few words before she said a complete sentence: "I'm not cold, and stepping on the snow can't carry two people."
This is not an outing, this is running for life. If she is exhausted from tracing snow, she will feel sorry for her.
Trace the snow seemed to understand the words of people. With a long hiss, he ran away and rushed forward, which was as if he had enough energy to carry the two of them.
When Su Miaohua saw that Trace Snow was running out, Cheng Mo disappeared into the heavy snow. He was shocked and quickly slapped his horse to chase him.
Cheng Mo didn't expect that Taxue could understand and accelerate while galloping at high speed. Inertia made him lean back. After sitting firmly, he reached out and patted Taxue's horse's head and said, "Wait for Rouge."
Yanzhi is Su Miaohua's mount, a seven-year-old mare.
Stepping on the snow, the horse's head tilted, as if looking back, Cheng Mo touched its head again, indicating approval.
Soon, Su Miaohua chased after him. Heizi and the soldiers were afraid that Cheng Mo would make mistakes, so they all accelerated and followed.
I don’t know how long it took for Cheng Mo to slow down the horse, waved his hand to stop the sergeant, identify the direction, and then continue to move forward. The sky was full of wind and snow, and the vast grasslands could not be measured by common sense, and I don’t know how far away from Kang Cheng’s troops.
At this time, Qiao Jie was fighting with the army of King Youguli. They were unable to walk fast with nearly one million livestock and were soon chased by King Youguli. One side wanted to take revenge, the other side was eager to escape. Both sides fought fiercely in the wind and snow, and the killing made the ground flow into a river of blood.
Hua Luo's army was also on the way to arrive. The wind and snow were too strong, which seriously affected the march, otherwise they would have arrived early. However, they were not too late. When Qiao Jie and King Youguli's army were in trouble, they finally arrived in the wind and snow.
The visibility was too low. Looking at the army emerging from the wind and snow, both sides of the fight were stunned and froze for half a cup of tea. Qiao Jie reacted first and ordered the flag bearer to shake the big flag with the word "Joe" written on it.
The flag is embroidered with red silk thread, and it appears and appears in the wind and snow. The red color is bright and easy to attract attention. Hua Luo suddenly sees the words on it clearly. Regardless of whether you recognize it or not, the four-sided character is the mark of the Wu Dynasty. There is always common sense. This is the Wu army. Needless to say, the hostile convenience is the Hun army.
"Kill!" Hua Luo's big banner pointed to the troops of King Youguli, and the Wusun army rushed over like a tide. They marched for a day and a night, and were exhausted, and their bodies were almost frozen by the snow. But everyone knew that only by killing the enemy could they camp and camp to shelter from the wind and snow. More importantly, the creatures in the mountains and fields were too familiar and eager to see them. They didn't have to look closely, and they could only see what it was. Only by winning a battle can they drive the cattle and sheep that could not be seen at all. Under the stimulation of cattle and sheep, the Wusun soldiers fought for the first place.
Forty thousand people versus twenty thousand people, it was an overwhelming massacre. The commander of the Youguli King cursed and wanted to kill Hua Luo, but he was entangled by Qiao Jie and could not make any move.
Hua Luo fought for a while, rushed to Shuai's banner, met with Qiao Jie, and dealt with the personal army commander of King Youguli. The two of them killed the unlucky guy to death. The Hun cavalry who was riding under him was shocked and chased by Wu and Wusun, and immediately scattered like birds and beasts.
The enemy ran away, neither of them chased each other, gathered troops, counted casualties, and treated the wounded.
Qiao Jie was busy, when Hua Luoyu came, stretched out his big hand and said in a stiff Wu language: "Marty Cheng asked me to respond and promised to give me the cattle and sheep of King Youguli."
