Since chatting with Murong Nan that day, Liu Yu has never seen Murong Nan again. The same is true today. It has been three days. He has been wandering around this small forest every day, but Murong Nan's figure has never appeared. Even he The two horses, one yellow and one brown, that he brought for training every day were also missing. Liu Yu missed them a little, and he didn't know whether he was thinking of people or horses deep down in his heart.
It was past midnight, and seeing the sun starting to set in the west, Liu Yu sighed, shook his head, and was about to walk towards the camp when he heard Xie Zingfeng's cheerful voice ringing behind him: "Brother Jinu, Brother Jinu, So you are here."
Liu Yu smiled slightly and looked at Xie Tingfeng. He was the youngest in the team. He was only sixteen years old, more than three months younger than Wei Shunzhi. Although he was tall and thick, he didn't even have hair on his mouth. He has a childish look on his face and looks a bit like his younger brother, so Liu Yu has always been particularly caring towards the youngest sergeant in the team.
"Xiao Xie, if you don't go and practice well, what are you doing here? Oh, by the way, you should be the one to take care of Ah Shou today."
Xie Tingfeng smiled "hehe": "Brother Ashou is almost healed. He could get out of bed the day before yesterday. Doctor Li said that he can resume training tomorrow. Thanks to Brother Ashou, I can't get out of bed these days. I ate a lot of small dishes."
Liu Yu has been practicing riding skills with Murong Nan every day these days, but rarely stays in the camp. Since Liu Jingxuan took his elixir, he was also moved to a separate camp in the west. This may not be because He is Liu Laozhi's son's privilege. Li Shenyi from the doctor's camp once said that any seriously injured sergeant has the right to have a separate account. Even the food is a small stove, a big meal of fish and meat, and I don't know how much he is greedy. sergeant.
Liu Yu smiled and punched Xie Tingfeng in the chest: "You kid, why do you always take the initiative to take care of Ah Shou these days? It turns out that there is delicious food there, and you don't need to train. Humph, these days I Come out for special training, Ah Shou's injury has not healed yet, giving you guys a chance to be lazy. Starting tomorrow, I will train you well, so don't even think about being lazy then."
As he said that, he pinched Xie Zingfeng's face that had little flesh: "Look, your kid has turned gray and fat in more than a month. It's all because I didn't train you properly, but you're going to lose your skin." oh."
Xie Tingfeng laughed: "If Brother Jinu can lead us to train every day, then I am willing to give you all the small dishes."
Having said this, he looked around: "Brother Jinu, when you come back this time, why don't you want your brothers? You ignore us every day. You run out early every morning and come back only after midnight. We want to say something to you." No words will work. But Brother Pingzi (Tan Pingzhi) said that you have military orders and are going to undergo special training, so we should not come in your way."
Liu Yu felt sad for a while, and thought to himself what was wrong with him. Could it be that he really had a new friend like Murong Nan, so he no longer wanted his old brother? After all, he is an outsider from the Hu tribe and will leave sooner or later. It is hard to say whether he might become an enemy one day in the future. But Tan Pingzhi, Xie Tingfeng and others are brothers of the same clan and team as him, no matter when , we will all live and die together.
Thinking of this, Liu Yu felt relieved, and the subtle and unspeakable longing for Murong Nan suddenly disappeared. He stood up and said with a smile: "The training is almost over. Today just ended. It will start tomorrow. , I went back to the team. The Qin soldiers are already attacking Xiangyang. I heard that in Huaibei, the Qin army has also dispatched a large army to attack General Tian Luo in San'a. We must be prepared to go to the battlefield at any time."
Xie Tingfeng sighed: "Brother Jinu, you may really be training in isolation these days and know nothing about the outside world. What you said is all out of date and has disappeared. In the battle report that just came in at noon today, General Tian Luo was added as the governor of Youzhou, and his unit was also given the designation of the Tianlang unit of the Beifu Army. San'a was trapped, and in order to save him, the imperial court sent the right guard general, General Mao Anzhi, Lead 40,000 imperial troops to send reinforcements and head straight to Huaibei."
Liu Yu smiled slightly: "It turns out to be General Mao Anzhi. This is the second son of our famous founding general Mao Bao of the Jin Dynasty. He is also a famous general. When our demon thief Lu Xue from Jingkou caused chaos and raided the palace, Mao Anzhi, who was the general of the palace guard at that time, personally led the troops to quell the rebellion, and he made a great contribution by killing Lu Xue. If he had led the troops, the Qin army would not have dared to besiege San'a again."
Xie Tingfeng's expression became serious, he shook his head and said seriously: "No, Brother Jinu, you are thinking too simply. This time the Qin army is not coming with a small force, but two generals. What is the name of each one?" "Nan, the other one is called Peng Chao. These two men brought 60,000 soldiers and horses. They first defeated our army at the border of Jin Dynasty, and then surrounded General Tian in San'a."
"But they kept besieging and refusing to attack, just to lure the main force of our army to send reinforcements. When the forbidden army led by General Mao was about to reach the front line, they received another 20,000 new reinforcements. They suddenly abandoned San'a City and attacked directly. General Mao, the battle report at noon said that General Mao's army was attacked by a surprise attack and was completely defeated overnight. General Mao, accompanied by a few personal guards, fled back to Jiankang. Guangling City is now under martial law. I heard that Marshal Xuan We are discussing the matter of sending troops in advance to confront the Qin army head-on."
Liu Yu was shocked at first, but then he thought about the discussion he had with Murong Nan about cavalry tactics a few days ago, and his heart suddenly brightened. It must be difficult for Mao Anzhi to realize that the Qin cavalry could use such tactics of one man and two horses. , achieving high-speed maneuvers, covering a distance of thousands of miles, and can attack in two days. If the Qin army has ten or twenty thousand cavalry, attack his camp over a long distance, and then tie their horse tails to branches like Murong Nan did, raising dust and making noise, I am afraid that even Mao Anzhi will The veteran general did not know the details of the enemy's army. It was not surprising that the army collapsed in panic.
Liu Yu nodded thoughtfully: "So that's it. General Mao has never really seen the power of the northern cavalry. After all, after Duke Huan's Northern Expedition, our Jin Dynasty has not fought against the northern cavalry for nearly twenty years. Look. Come on, the dispatch of our Beifu Army is just around the corner, Xiao Xie, I'm afraid we won't have many opportunities to train. Maybe early tomorrow morning, we will have our entire army dispatched to the front line."
A trace of confusion flashed in Xie Tingfeng's eyes, and he whispered: "Brother Jinu, you have a lot of knowledge and good martial arts skills. Everyone obeys you. Do you think we can defeat the northern barbarians this time? General Mao is Our general, our army was defeated before we even saw the enemy. I heard that those barbarians are copper-headed and iron-faced, and they know how to eat people!"
Liu Yu shook his head with a smile, and a calm and confident light flashed in his eyes: "I believe Brother Jinu, Hulu is also a human being, and we will definitely win the battle! Let's go back to camp!" chapter;
