Invincible son

Chapter 1182 1183 [A little bit of grandeur] (eight)
The Longbow Camp is located to the east of the Beishao River, with a straight-line distance of about [-] miles.

Six years before Kaiping, the strength of the Longbow Army surpassed the Fourth Battalion of the Western Army, repelling small-scale raids by the Wu Army many times, and trying to ensure that the vast territory north of Hucheng was not threatened.

But after that battle, part of the main cavalry of the Longbow Army was transferred to the Tibetan Front Guard, and the coach Tang Youzhi, Hou Ji Ning, was also transferred to the governor of Lingzhou.If only this is the case, the Longbow Army may still be able to maintain [-]% to [-]% of its strength in its heyday, but before Wang Pingzhang's rebellion, Emperor Kaiping ordered Su Wu to lead [-] veterans to the capital to rescue King Qin, and then took advantage of the situation to replenish this army into Beijing Army West Camp.

So far, the overall combat power of the Longbow Army has plummeted. Although the battalion maintains a total of about [-] soldiers with three guards, Xie Lin and his staff estimate that there are at least [-] new recruits in the Longbow Army.

Within the camp.

"I heard that your elder brother is now in the Zangfeng Guard? That is a good place, countless times stronger than our Longbow camp. It is said that since you have such a connection, why don't you let your elder brother ask the prince for help?" Favor, let you also enter Tibet Fengwei, why bother to suffer in such a place where the birds don't shit."

Next to the school grounds, the soldiers who finished the morning drills returned to their residences in groups. A big and round infantry looked at the handsome Xu Shiji and asked curiously.

They actually came here half a month ago. They originally belonged to the left guard of the Xiang Army in Lingzhou. The imperial court ordered the left guard of Lingzhou to switch with the Yangqu guard of the Longbow Daying Army.

In other words, the Yangqu Guards, who are basically recruits, are now stationed outside Xingyang City, but the Lingzhou Left Guards transferred are mostly veterans and a small number of recruits. Xu Shiji is one of the recruits, but he also joined the army It's been more than a year, but he hasn't experienced the baptism of iron and blood on the battlefield.Therefore, the strength of the Longbow Camp was not as weak as Xie Lin predicted, but because of the lag in the transmission of news in this era, he did not know that Pei Yue had made careful arrangements.

For a great battle related to the fate of the country, many times a small detail can determine the outcome of the battle.

Xu Shiji has a close relationship with this colleague named Qian Huai, and he has been taken care of by him this year, so he replied honestly: "Brother said, I still can't meet the requirements of Tibetan front guards, at least I have to fight on the battlefield." After gaining ten heads, he will have the confidence to go to the Commander of Zangfengwei and request to transfer me over there."

Qian Huai laughed loudly, ignoring the gazes from around him, and said boldly: "Don't worry, as long as you are not afraid of death, you will definitely be able to chop off enough heads this time. After you enter the Zangfeng Guard, don't forget to give my brother a hand." .”

Xu Shiji asked curiously, "Brother Qian also wants to join the Tibetan front guard?"

Qian Huai said calmly: "Who doesn't want to enter? Not to mention the treatment of Zang Fengwei, just the care that the Duke of the country takes for the relatives of the soldiers under his command. Who in Lingzhou doesn't give a thumbs up? You should be very clear about this matter. As long as one person enters Zangfengwei, even the county magistrate in his hometown will be polite to his relatives."

Xu Shiji nodded and said, "Yes."

Ever since his elder brother entered Zangfengwei, his family had a token sent by the Duke of Wei. From then on, when the officials passed by, they would smile and say something, not to mention that all the exorbitant and miscellaneous taxes in previous years would be exempted.

Thinking of this, he glanced at the sunlight above his head, and asked in a low voice, "Brother Qian, will this battle really start?"

Qian Huai smiled, shook his head and said: "I don't know, but the imperial court must have seen through the thoughts of those bastards in West Wu when they transferred us here from Xingyang City. Now there are Wu troops everywhere outside the border. There is a possibility of war breaking out, the imperial court attaches so much importance to the Longbow camp, it is likely that there will be a battle, and only the commander knows exactly what will happen."

Xu Shiji said: "I heard that the new coach is—"

Before the words fell, a high-pitched horn sounded suddenly from a distance, as if a torrential rain covered the sky and poured down on the world.

On the dusty school field, everyone was startled when they heard the voice, and then immediately followed their generals and ran wildly.

Xu Shiji also spread his legs and rushed forward, closely following behind Qian Huai.

This is the highest ranking order in the battalion. No matter whether you are a general or a soldier, after hearing this order, you must return to your station and wait for further instructions from above.

The West Wu North Route Army is attacking!
The vanguard army is less than fifty miles away from the Longbow camp!

The head coach of the Longbow camp ordered Lingzhou Zuowei to go forward to meet the enemy!
After Xu Shiji learned of this series of news, he inevitably fell into a trance.Although he had practiced hard since joining the army, improving his abilities all the time, and was ready to go to the battlefield after arriving at the Longbow camp, but when this moment really came, he suddenly found that his legs were a little weak.

"Brat, wake up!"

A big hand slammed on Xu Shiji's shoulder.

He turned his head to look, only to see Qian Huai, who was wearing a military uniform and holding a long gun, his eyes were full of concern, and his expression seemed much calmer than his.

Qian Huai was not surprised that Xu Shiji would behave like this. In fact, he was even more unbearable than this young man when he first played, and the anxiety on his face could not be concealed at all.Although Xu Shiji was a little dazed now, there was no obvious fear in his eyes.

Xu Shiji took a deep breath and gradually calmed down.

At this moment, he was already in the army formation, and he was familiar with his colleagues. Except for Qian Huai, the others did not pay too much attention to this recruit.

Opposite should be the vanguard army of Xiwu.

Xu Shiji asked in a low voice, puzzled: "Brother Qian, why don't we stick to the camp?"

Although the Xu family is a small family in the local area, his father is also a veteran of the Western Army and has achieved the post of commander. Therefore, he has high hopes for his two sons and has taught them by example since childhood.Xu Shiji really didn't understand, since the strength of the Longbow battalion was at a disadvantage, shouldn't the best choice be to stick to it with the battalion's complete defense system?

The large camps on the border of Daliang were not simple camps, but solid military cities, which was why they became battlegrounds for military strategists.

If the Western Wu army ignored it, it would be tantamount to handing over their retreat to the enemy's hands.

Qian Huai said calmly: "I guess I don't want to be too passive."

A few words, with a rather rare heaviness.

Xu Shiji remained silent. At this moment, he also wanted to understand the reason. The new coach obviously didn't want to stick to it, at least he had to frustrate Wu Jun's vanguard, otherwise the morale of the army would fall into a low state sooner or later.

Just want to do this, Lingzhou Zuowei must pay a heavy price.

In the distance, the sound of drums came gradually, resounding between heaven and earth.

Qian Huai clenched the spear in his hand, gritted his teeth and said, "Follow me, don't panic, don't be afraid!"

The sound of shouting and killing suddenly broke out.

Xu Shiji exhaled a foul breath, suddenly let out a roar from his chest, and rushed forward with the surging crowd.

Like a drop in the ocean.
