The King of Liang, the feudal lords outside the town, and the generals inside

After directly taking charge of the White Horse Army, Bai Yu devoted all his energy to the training and management of the White Horse Army.They are all brave and proficient in bows and horses. Whether it is close hand-to-hand combat or charging on the battlefield, it can be said that it is easy to say, but Bai Yu's focus these days is bows and arrows.

"On the battlefield, the most lethal weapon is none other than these feathered arrows. At that time, your arrows will be smeared with a kind of poison I specially made. Those who fall into it will be killed immediately, and Hua Tuo will not be able to save them in the next life. But now I want to kill you." What you practice is not shooting enemy soldiers, but their battle flags." Bai Yu pointed to the flags of different sizes and colors hanging around and waving in the hands of other soldiers, and said, "Aim at these, I want you to hit every shot without fail. .”

The White Horse Army has a total of 600 people, all surnamed Wei, each named after their own birthday.One named Wei Shiba was the leader among them, so he asked Bai Yu, "Your Highness, we don't understand, what's the use of shooting these flags?"

Bai Majun was used to being unrestrained in the mountains and fields, and he spoke straightforwardly and never knew how to be euphemistic. Bai Yu didn't stick to etiquette, but felt so relaxed.He replied: "There are only so many feathered arrows in total, and those who missed or were blocked have to be counted. Even if they hit all of them, they will only shoot down a group of forwards. No matter how close the enemy soldiers behind are, the bows and arrows will be useless." That's it - before you draw your bow to aim, someone has already cut your neck. Therefore, although the bow and arrow are powerful, they are not mobile enough. After all, ordinary crossbowmen cannot shoot arrows while running. In this case, instead of Instead of aiming the arrow at the enemy soldiers, it is better to aim at these command flags. Thousands of people on the battlefield are not fighting face to face, and they all have strict formations. Think about it, if the enemy troops lost their command flags as soon as the battle started, wouldn’t they be running around like headless chickens?”

Wei Shiba suddenly realized.

Bai Yu has been watching their training from the sidelines until the end of the day, when the sun sets, the twilight closes, and it gets dark quickly, then Bai Yu gives them the order to rest, and he himself is on his way back for dinner.The stars are embedded in the lake, and the water sparkles with the breeze, flickering and flickering.Bai Yu's carriage passed by the lake, he opened the curtain, lay on the side of the window and stared quietly at the stars all over the lake, Yan Xun's voice lingered in his ears again:

"Inferior in shape, weak in strategy. Better than temples, not in battlefields. Better than in battlefields, not in arrows and stones." He kissed Baiyu's ear tip and asked him, "Do you understand?"

Bai Yu nodded, and leaned back lazily in his arms, "The art of war of your Yan family is passed down from father to son. You tell me this all day long, do you think I'm your son again?"

The two rode together, and Yan Xun embraced him behind him, wrapping him in his arms.Not far away, the river was gurgling, sometimes accompanied by the sound of insects and dogs barking. The faint moonlight had just flowed down, but was also blocked by the tall and dense branches and leaves, which could barely cast a little mottled.In such a dark night, it was easy for people to involuntarily imagine and be on guard against fear, but with Yan Xun's company, Bai Yu was not afraid of any wild beasts and ghosts at all, and only felt that everything around him was so peaceful and peaceful.

Yan Xun hugged him even tighter, and Yan Xun's cloak was wrapped around him, with a Bai Ze embroidered on it.Bai Yu caressed those patterns, and heard Yan Xun say, "Remember what I told you, maybe I can use it someday."

Bai Yu blinked, and looked up at Yan Xun excitedly, "Can I be by your side? I heard that some generals will bring their wives with them when they go out to battle. This is called the wife of the army. Although I am not a wife, I can also Follow the army!"

Yan Xun didn't answer him, just smiled and leaned over to kiss his lips.

Jiuhuaqiu walked slowly by herself without the urging of her master.Around his neck was a luan bell given by Bai Yu, which jingled and echoed in the silent night.

Cen An achieved a great victory in the first battle he went south, and Liang Wangjun retreated and defeated one after another, lost the city and lost a lot of food and supplies.How can Cen An not be happy, his attack speed has been accelerated again and again, and his army has penetrated hundreds of miles alone.

He said triumphantly: "What's so difficult about fighting? I've read all the military books. You see, the rebels are retreating steadily. I didn't expect this general to be victorious and return to court in less than three months. Let's see who dares to look down on me. Who dares to talk behind my back that my position as a great general was stolen!"

Lieutenant General Xu Ti's flattery hurriedly followed, "Yes! The general is a hero, brave and resourceful! Even if Yan Xun leads the army, he must not be as good as the general Wanyi!"

Wang Ping even closed his eyes and blew nonsense, "Hey, General Xu's words are wrong. From the point of view of the general, even if the thirteen generals of the Yan family are tied together, it is not as good as our General Cen!"

Cen An couldn't help laughing, and said, "My aunt wants me not to fight King Liang, just let me hold him back. I know my aunt must be because she doesn't trust me and thinks I'm incompetent! I just want her to see Look at my abilities!"

The next day, when Mu Fengyi was defeated and returned to the camp, Qin Ran immediately ordered to retreat [-] miles and set up a camp.And spread the news that Bai Yu was supervising the battle in Qin Ran's camp.

After the sentry cavalry came back from inquiring about the news, Cen An said without hesitation: "It seems that the enemy army must be exhausted and unable to fight anymore. Tonight I will personally lead the army, lead the main force to attack the camp at night, defeat them in one fell swoop, and capture King Liang alive !"

Bai Yu yawned and asked, "How's it going?"

Qin Ran said: "Reporting to Your Highness, everything is within our plan."

"Okay." Bai Yu sat up straight and regained her spirits immediately, "Success or failure is the only battle."

An ambush was quickly set up in the camp, the tripping rope was connected to the mechanism, and sharp wooden wedges and densely packed barbed wire were planted in the trench.When Cen An came, he was left with an empty battalion full of murderous intentions, and Mu Fengyi had already led a powerful force to attack Cen An's rear camp.

Bai Yu had already boarded the cliff, looking down at the battle situation below from a high position, his white horse army stood beside him with bows and arrows, some of which were kerosene, some were highly poisonous, waiting for the prey to fall into the trap.

Bai Yu's heart was pounding.This was the first time he faced a real battle situation in person, he was a little scared, but more excited.Retreat again and again, endure again and again, just waiting for today, just waiting for the victory of this battle.Just win this one time.

He was whispering something.

Qiu Ye didn't hear clearly, and thought Bai Yu had some instructions, so he moved closer and asked, "What did Your Highness say?"

"... Store your qi, so your qi will become fierce. The power of soldiers is often tried and never used again, and once tried but never used again." Bai Yu's eyes were shining brightly, reflecting the light of the fire below the mountain and the moonlight in the sky.He smiled and muttered to himself, "I remember it all."

A sound of arrows pierced through the darkness with a long whistling sound. In an instant, like a volcano erupting suddenly in a deep sleep, it ruthlessly tore through the deliberately disguised silence. The cries were terribly intertwined.Soldiers trampled on the wounded, dead, and fallen enemies and their own people, no one cares about the life and death of the other, so the horses also fled in all directions, trampling the ground with iron hooves, like thunder bursting one after another.

Everything is stained with blood and dust, and the eyes are also full of blood and dust. It is shocking but extremely ostentatious and teases people's vision, making people excited in fear.Then the sense of smell is not far behind, the smoke of burning wood, the charred flesh, internal organs, stumps, and human heads.

Bai Yu took her own bow from Qiu Ye's hand, put on the arrow, and slowly pulled it away, her eyes were as bright and sharp as a falcon.

Cen An struggled to find out the direction in the confusion, and shouted with his weapons held high: "Soldiers! Follow me out—!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a sharp arrow "swished" and hit his raised right arm.Cen An let out a cry of pain, the pain made his face hideous, but he couldn't care less about it anymore, he gritted his teeth and pulled out the arrow, a large piece of flesh was scraped off by the arrow's barb.He swung his spear with his left hand, cutting his way through blood.

Qiu Ye's eyes widened, and he watched in surprise as Bai Yu threw the bow back into his hand, and then heard him say indifferently, "Here's an order, let Cen An go, and I'll let him fester and die in ten days."

Cen An searched for a famous doctor, but he was still unable to return to heaven. After his death, the army was in turmoil without a leader. Liang Wangjun easily regained all the lost cities and more food and supplies, and took in many defeated troops. double the expansion.The soldiers led by Fucheng and others were about to retreat to Cangzhou, so Liang Wang's army stopped chasing and integrated their forces to prepare for the final battle.

"Have you found out clearly, are there any other generals other than Cen An who were injured or injured? Especially General Chunyu. I told Qin Ran and the others not to hurt others."

Qiu Ye said: "Reporting to Your Highness, the other generals are all fine, Your Highness can rest assured."

Only then did Bai Yu let out a sigh of relief, and said with a smile, "That's good. They are all looking for Yan, that is, our own people."

"Cen An is dead, and his deputy general has temporarily taken over military affairs. I wonder who the court will appoint to lead the army next?"

"I'm not afraid of anyone coming." Bai Yu said.

The weather was getting colder, and it had been raining for the past few days, making it even colder and damper. Bai Yu was always afraid of the cold, so he put on Yan Xun's sable fur coat again.The clothes he wore in the past two years grew a lot, but after wearing them again this year, they only grew a little longer.Bai Yu was very happy, "It seems that I have grown taller again."

Qiu Ye said: "That's right, I look at Your Highness every day and don't think so. Your Highness is the only one who can grow a lot taller."

Bai Yu said happily: "I don't ask for too much, just like Yan Xun. I only passed his chest before, his arms and legs were thin, like a chick that has been plagued. When he sees me It will definitely be a surprise at that time. I wonder if he will still be able to hug me by then."

"Your Highness not only grows taller, but also becomes more mature and stable."

"That's right, I've grown up!" Bai Yu said, pinching the growing muscles on her body.Although it is still far from being as muscular and well-proportioned as Yan Xun, it is no longer the thin, skinny youthful figure of before.So he was looking forward to letting Yan Xun take a look at himself, looking forward to the day when they would meet again.
