Chapter 1336: Han Banner World (Twenty-Six) Meet Halfway

Following the sharp warning whistle, the soldiers playing on the oasis put on their armor and saddles in a very short time. Niu Ben was also extremely impressed by the quality they displayed. This time, thousands of soldiers brought by Wang Jian The rest of the cavalry are all elites in his army. Although there are not many old Qin troops affiliated with Wang Jian, and more are soldiers recruited from his new territory, in the past few years, there have been constant wars and Wang Jian. The harsh training made these people no less competitive than even the most elite Han cavalry.

An attack formation was quickly formed. In the desert, the fight for the oasis was extremely cruel. In such an encounter, even if the losing side would not be completely wiped out, in fact, they would all be cavalry. , and it is extremely difficult to achieve total annihilation, unless the strength of the two sides is too disparate, but the loss of supplies is the most fatal, and the vast desert that follows is enough to kill you.

{Pig + Pig + Island} novel www.hzua The enemy in the distance came very quickly. In the blink of an eye, they could already see their military flags. Niu Ben, who was originally a little nervous, immediately relaxed after seeing the opponent's flag. Laughing loudly, he snatched the spear in his hand and thrust it into the ground, "General Wang, he is one of our own, I will go and greet him."

Without waiting for Wang Jian to speak, the bull galloped and pinched the horse's belly. The horse neighed lightly and ran forward. Opposite, a yellow dragon flag was flapping in the wind, rising and falling as the rider advanced.

Wang Jian's heart dropped when he heard that they were Han cavalry. However, the soldiers did not lift their alert and maintained their fighting formation. Wang Jian narrowed his eyes and looked at the cavalry coming from a distance.

Wang Jian, who has fought with the Han army for many years, is naturally very familiar with the Han army's military flags. Based on the military flags, he can tell which team is coming from the other side. "It's actually the Young Guards." He breathed a sigh of relief.

The officers of the Han Youth Guards, Gao Yuan's most direct unit, were basically from Jishi City Comprehensive University, and the recruitment targets were limited to the counties where Gao Yuan started his career. And it is the kind that has a family and a family. This is a force with super combat effectiveness and the highest loyalty.

The Han cavalry came running in four columns, and the yellow sand brought up by the horses' hooves rolled up behind the team like a yellow dragon. As the two sides quickly approached, the yellow dragon flag was raised quickly. The rider on the horse violently reined in the horse, and the horse stood up with a long neigh. When the four hooves hit the ground, they were already stuck there like nails. The cavalry behind quickly dispersed, two to the left, two to the right. Behind the rider, a cavalry square formed in an instant. Wang Jian's expression changed slightly as he looked at the neatly drawn battle line, the saber raised high and shining with cold light.

"I am Niu Ben, the Han Dynasty envoy on an envoy. Which general of the Guards is leading his troops here?" Niu Ben galloped over on horseback and shouted loudly. The Han cavalry divided to the left and right, and a young general came out of the crowd, "General Niu Ben. The last general is Mei Hua, the first army of the Young Guards. On the order of the king, come to greet General Wang Jian."

"Haha, it turns out it's you!" Niu Ben laughed. Mei Yipo and Mei Pu were both influential figures in Jicheng. One is now the president of the Central People's Bank of China.

One is the steward of all the king's property. The Mei family is also the top business family in the Han Dynasty. Mei Su, the second eldest son, is in charge of the huge family, and Mei Hua ranks third in the family. The Mei family is now the top family in the Han Dynasty, but when it comes to their rise, it is Mei Hua who was extremely naughty at home and was sent to the army. The naughty boy back then has now become a major general in the Han Youth Guards. He is deeply loved by Gao Yuan, and together with Wu Ya, he has become the second general of the First Army, Heng Ha.

The two of them were sitting on the horse, but they embraced each other passionately. Niubeng had been on the mission for more than half a year, and when he suddenly saw his own army, his joy was beyond words.

"Has your Majesty arrived at Jishi County?" Niu Ben asked after letting go of Mei Hua.

"Yes, the king has arrived, and I was ordered to come and greet him." Mei Hua said with a smile, "That person opposite is General Wang Jian Luo? It was a pity that I didn't catch up with him during the grassland battle."

"It's all in the past, there's no need to mention it anymore. This is someone's sad thing. Don't let the pot go." Niu Ben said in a low voice.

"I know." Mei Hua smiled.

"Come on, I'll introduce you to General Wang, who is about to establish a country and become king." Niu Ben said with a smile.

Mei Hua turned around and raised her hand high. When she lowered her hand, more than a thousand shining sabers immediately dropped down. With a choking sound, they all returned to their sheaths, followed by thousands of people who got off their horses and held their horses with their hands. Standing on the reins, his movements were uniform, and Wang Jian's brows on the opposite side were jumping wildly. It is easy for a warrior to be brave and good at fighting, but in a team of this size, he can practice simple movements as if he were one person. Among them, Wang Jian, as the commander of the army, is naturally aware of the difficulty. Although both sides only had more than a thousand cavalry at this time, if they were to fight, they would not be their opponents. Thinking of this, Wang Jian couldn't help but feel nervous. With such elite cavalry brought out by him, his whole army combined There will not be more than five thousand cavalry, and the other side, a young guard alone has tens of thousands of such cavalry, and this does not include the notorious Huns cavalry and Donghu cavalry in the opponent's army.

The difference in strength is really too big, Wang Jian lamented in his heart!

"General Mei Hua, commander of the first division of the first army of the Young Guards Corps, has met General Wang." Mei Hua, who came on horseback, turned over and dismounted, and neatly gave Wang Jian a military salute.

He performed the general military salute of the Han army. Wang Jian also dismounted his horse, but clasped his fists in his hands and returned the salute: "Thank you for your hard work, general. The desert is difficult and the road is long. Wang Jian really cannot deserve such kindness from the king of Han!"

The other party came with his army, naturally to greet him.

"The general is too modest," the king said. The general went on an expedition alone and conquered a huge territory for us Central Plains people outside the territory. Although we do not belong to the same country, we are of the same species and race. The general is naturally worthy of the title. ." Mei Hua said loudly.

"Did your king really say that?" Wang Jian asked in surprise.

"Of course, how dare the general to fabricate the king's words?" Mei Hua said with a smile: "The king said that although we were rivals in the past, it was a fight between brothers behind closed doors, which was a conflict among the people. However, the general went on an expedition alone. But it has greatly increased the ambition of the people of the Central Plains, which is admirable and admirable.”

Wang Jian shook his head and smiled bitterly. What kind of lone expedition? Back then, he was beaten by the opponent and fled in embarrassment. He had no way to go to heaven and no way to enter the earth. He could only run into the desert and survive in death.

Turning around, he shook his head. The more than a thousand cavalrymen behind them lowered their weapons and dismounted.

"General, thank you for your hard work coming from afar. Let the brothers station themselves on the oasis and wash themselves off." Wang Jian said.

"Thank you, General. It's really uncomfortable in this desert." Mei Hua shrank her neck, "General, it seems like there are sand everywhere on the body. It's really uncomfortable. "

As Wang Jian arrived in Luzhou, the more than a thousand Guards looked calm and naturally divided into ten small teams of one hundred people. Every two teams were washed in one round, and the remaining teams were still fully armed. Occupying half of the oasis. Compared with Wang Jian's cavalry, they were obviously more orderly, and what was even more rare was that their noise was basically unheard. Even under the current relaxed situation, they still keep most people in a state of alert.

"The King of Han has trained his troops well. No wonder the world is invincible. We lost unjustly back then!" Wang Jian, who was sitting on the grass, looked at this scene and said with emotion. Sitting next to him, the general who came with him this time Huang Xiao also looked heavy. Both of them had experienced the bloody battle on the grassland back then.

Mei Hua smiled, but this time he was not modest. The big man was invincible.

"How is everything at home?" Niu Ben asked with concern. He had been away from home for more than half a year and was thousands of miles away in a foreign land. He really missed his hometown in his heart.

"Everything is going well. There are two more happy events," Mei Hua said with a smile: "During the Chinese New Year last year, Minister Cao got the princess of the former Zhao Kingdom as his wife. The king personally hosted the wedding, and the infantry commander also and Princess Shuyu of Chu State is engaged, and she will probably get married sometime this year.”

"Oh, it's true that I didn't make it to Minister Cao's wedding." Niu Ben was a little annoyed. Cao Tianci was his immediate boss, and they had been fighting side by side for nearly ten years.

"Don't worry, your wedding banquet is indispensable." Mei Hua said with a smile.

"The infantryman is engaged to Princess Shuyu of the Chu Kingdom?" Wang Jian was stunned, "Is the Han-Chu alliance now?"

"No." Mei Hua shook her head and said: "It is still the Qin-Chu alliance. But I heard that Princess Shuyu and our infantry commander are in love. Although we are still in a state of hostility, for this kind of thing Well, our king is still happy to see the results, these are two different things!"

Of course, these are not two different things. In Wang Jian's view, this is naturally a tacit attitude between Han and Chu, and this is obviously making things worse for Da Qin.

"General, this time the general came to greet us on the order of the king. When we set off, the team was huge, but when we got here, these were the only ones left," Mei Hua said.

"Oh, why is this?" Wang Jian asked puzzledly.

"The rest of the people I brought are all logistical equipment, drawn from the Third Military Region. Every hundred miles, they set up a supply point so that your team, General, can rest and replenish at any time without having to work so hard." Mei Hua He smiled and said, "Aren't there only these more than a thousand cavalry left this way? The rest are all at the supply point!"

Hearing Mei Hua's understatement, Wang Jian and Huang Xiao both breathed heavily. This was not establishing a supply point, this was a naked display of strength to them, explaining to them that the desert would not become a Han army. If they want to attack them, the Han army can easily cross the desert. (To be continued...)
