Bring the whole war back to Nanming

Chapter 149 Cannon Fodder Battalion
Huddled in the crowded tent, Han Jiayu felt uncomfortable all over her body. As long as she could remember, she slept in a comfortable big bed. Except for four people in a dormitory when she was in college, she even lived a comfortable life after time travel.

Today, I have to sleep in the same tent with a group of strangers, and I feel awkward thinking about it.Depressed weeping could be heard vaguely, most likely it was a woman hiding in a corner feeling sorry for what happened to herself and her family.

In such an environment, Fang Xiaobai, who was lying next to her, slept like a dead pig, with hands and feet still on her body from time to time. If it wasn't for the thunderous snoring, she would have thought that Fang Xiaobai was plotting something wrong!

In the early morning of the next day, before the sun had risen, the savage-faced military officer beat the sleeping civilians with a whip and drove them to the school grounds to gather.

Fang Xiaobai and Han Jiayu were luckier, because they were in the innermost place, so they didn't get whipped. Even so, the two of them were in a daze, Fang Xiaobai fell asleep, and Han Jiayu didn't sleep well.

Thousands of people stood sparsely on the huge campus, like a vegetable market, although the officers in charge of discipline took turns with whips, with little effect.Fang Xiaobai stood in the crowd, yawning boredly: "The officers and soldiers are also funny. A group of ordinary people can't even be counted as mobs. How could they be pulled out to fight against the enemy?"

Han Jiayu persuaded in a daze, "Xiao Fang, don't say a few words, I think those people are fierce, don't let them hear." After that, he also yawned, and half leaned on Fang Xiaobai's body to close his eyes and rest.

"Quiet! Everyone line up and come up one by one to get weapons! Time is running out, half of Chaos' siege tower has been built, and Chaos will attack the city in half a day at most. Whether Cangzhou City lives or dies depends on you! "

Teams of strong men, it is more appropriate to use the word civilian husband, the officers and soldiers pushed them to the side of the basket containing baskets of weapons, without even looking at them, they picked up the weapon and stuffed it into the civilian husband's hand, Fang Xiao Bai could see clearly that the officers and soldiers actually stuffed a tomahawk into the hands of a young man. It looked like the young man was only 13 years old at most, and it was a bit difficult to hold a tomahawk that was taller than others.

When it was Fang Xiaobai's turn, the same procedure was followed, and the officer threw a spear into his hand. Perhaps seeing that he was stronger than others, he might be able to carry it longer, and the officer in charge of distributing the equipment threw him a square spear. shield.

Han Jiayu's luck was not as good as Fang Xiaobai's. Although her body was not weak, the only weapons she was given were a rusty iron sword and a helmet, which looked a little funny at first glance. "Xiao Fang, they won't really push us into the battlefield, will they?"

After going through so much, Han Jiayu still had a fluke mentality.Fang Xiaobai's next words completely dispelled her thoughts.

"Han Jiayu, it is certain that we will go to the battlefield. You are a girl who studied science in high school. You don't know many things in history. Let me give you an example. At the end of the Northern Song Dynasty, Jin soldiers went south to surround Taiyuan City for several months. After the regular army has finished fighting, the young and strong will go to the top, and the young and strong will go to the top, and the old, weak, sick and disabled will go to the top, and finally the whole city was left empty before the golden soldiers captured Taiyuan, do you think they will push us to the battlefield?"

"I knew I wouldn't have run away from home." Han Jiayu muttered, her snow-white pretty face full of regret.

Fang Xiaobai couldn't laugh at this time, he shook his head helplessly, and said earnestly: "It's too late to say anything now, if you come, please be safe, and follow me on the battlefield later, if the battle is not good, we will run away, chaos They won't find us."

He has never been good at comforting people, and he hasn't changed since he was a child. After hearing this, Han Jiayu just said "oh" and stopped talking. He grabbed Fang Xiaobai's corner, not daring to let go.

The two followed the crowd, procrastinating all the way, several times Fang Xiaobai found a chance to escape, but because the officers and soldiers watched too closely, he couldn't act and let it go.Suddenly, he found a team coming towards him. The opponent was wearing red and white military uniforms, with simple plate armor on the chest and abdomen, and the weapons in their hands radiated a cold light. It looked like an elite army.

"Stop! I am Robert, Captain of the Cangzhou Garrison of the Second Legion under the Elector Boris. Who is the leader? Can you explain who they are?"

Robert's eyes were shining, and he scanned everyone. The militiaman who was looking at him couldn't help lowering his head, not daring to make a sound. When his eyes swept over Fang Xiaobai, a familiar feeling came to his heart. The small-headed officer walked out of the queue and saluted Robert flatteringly: "Report to the captain! My subordinate Wang Maofu is Zhang Chao's subordinate Qian Zong. This time, he is in charge of recruiting and deploying new recruits. Look, they all They are recruits who voluntarily join the army, enough to make up for our vacancies."

Wang Maofu took out the ingot of silver from his pocket and quietly stuffed it into Robert's arms.Unexpectedly, the other party slapped his hand and knocked out the money in his hand: "Don't play this game in front of me, it's useless! Fighting is a matter for soldiers, civilians don't need to participate, let them go."

"My lord captain, I can't help it. This is the order of the commander-in-chief. You have to let them go and talk to the commander-in-chief." Wang Maofu had no choice. He and Robert were like the relationship between the local army and the central army. The opponent's rank is higher than his own, and he has no place to cry when he contradicts his boss and the opponent kills him during the war. Now he can only push it to the general soldier.

Robert frowned, he knew that Wang Maofu was using drag formulas, and he had no choice but to think for a while, then he made up his mind: "Since I'm a recruit, I'm just short of manpower, why don't these recruits be handed over to me first. "

"This"

"I have the same rank as Zongbing Zhang, and I have the right to select recruits!"

Looking at Robert's appearance, if Wang Maofu dared to say no more, maybe Robert would fight him in front of the battle: "Since the captain is interested in them, I will reluctantly give up, but I have a request, I hope the next A group of recruits and adults don’t need to intervene.”

Robert didn't look at him, and he called the swordsmen behind him to lead several hundred militiamen, and walked away swaggeringly.Watching them leave, Wang Maofu spat out a mouthful of thick phlegm: "Bah! What the hell, monsters besiege the city, everyone will die, why are you so arrogant!"

"Brother, what shall we do?"

"What should I do? Let him do it! Let him take everyone away! Alas, I will go to Mr. Zhang to plead guilty."

More than a thousand militiamen silently followed Robert, and Fang Xiaobai hid among the crowd, curious about what happened just now: "Who is this foreigner? How dare he issue orders to Ming officials?" Scene: The clear lake water is sparkling, thousands of people are fighting together on the lakeside, foreigners are wearing red and white military uniforms, iron swords and shields are waving in the field of vision, he is holding a long sword and fighting side by side with foreigners.

"Xiao Fang? What's wrong with you?"

Seeing Fang Xiaobai standing there without moving, Han Jiayu touched him with his elbow. "Sorry, I'm distracted, let's go." He didn't understand why such a scene popped up in his mind, could it be that he had done it before?After much deliberation, there was still no result, so Fang Xiaobai had no choice but to put the matter aside.

Before they knew it, the crowd came to the city gate, and Robert ordered them to stop, light a fire and cook, and stand by for orders while he ran up the tower to observe the enemy's situation.Fang Xiaobai found a clean step and sat down on it. Han Jiayu was already so sleepy that he fell asleep leaning on Fang Xiaobai's shoulder.

"In the current situation, we must go up the city wall to assist in the defense, although the foreigner named Robert looks more friendly, eh? I heard what the officer in the school ground said just now? It seems to call us the cannon fodder battalion. It seems that the term cannon fodder is not a later generation. some."

Looking around, the guards are not tight, Fang Xiaobai thought to himself: "Now is a good opportunity to escape, the guards are lax and pay more attention to the city wall, but if we run away, we will still be caught. Not so lucky, I hope the so-called monster will not attack the city, give him more time to prepare to run away."

Facts always deviate from wishes, the less you want something to happen, the easier it is to happen.There was a rumbling sound outside the city, and everyone didn't understand it, so they poked their heads out to see what was happening outside through the city wall.

"Chaos is attacking the city! Everyone go to the city wall to defend against the enemy!"
