Chapter 754: The Sound of Drums and Horns Shows Its Sharp Edge (26)

Mei Hua happily walked among the groups of prisoners squatting on the ground with their heads in their hands. The sword in his hand banged against the armor of the other party. His eyes were shining as he looked at Meng Songhai beside him, "Deputy Commander, these guys' The equipment is really good. Look, the armor on the body is thick! "

Meng Songhai rolled his eyes, "What's better than what you have on you? This thing they wear weighs fucking dozens of kilograms on their body, but what you have on you weighs more. You can try it with a knife and see if it's your protection that's better, or yours." His protection is good.”

Mei Hua blinked her eyes, "It's true, let me try." As soon as the knife was raised, it was about to strike down. The prisoner under the knife's edge suddenly roared like a killing pig, "Spare your life!" The sound was so loud that Mei Hua was stunned. Startled.

"Damn it, I just want to test your armor, and I don't want to chop your head off, just scream your shit!" Mei Hua said angrily, turned the blade around, and hit the man's helmet hard with the back of the blade.

"Their iron smelting technology is not as good as ours, and this thing is heavy and hard to use." Meng Songhai said disdainfully.

Mei Hua chuckled, "Deputy Commander, that's only for our Guards. It's impossible for other troops to be equipped with armor like ours. Look at what they have on them. Even if they are re-forged, it weighs several dozen kilograms." Where’s the iron?”

"What you said is good!" Meng Songhai said: "It would be good to go back to the furnace and re-refining."

The two of them walked to Yang Dasha and saw their division commander with his upper body up, and the scars on his swollen muscles showing off their majestic appearance to everyone. In front of him, the general of the Tianhe County soldiers. Yao Changrong was being held down by two soldiers and knelt down in front of Yang Dasha.

Yang Dasha wiped the sweat and blood on his body with a piece of clothing. He watched Mei Hua and Meng Songhai walk over. He threw the stained clothes to the ground. He looked at the two people and asked, "Have you checked it out?" ?”

"We have counted them. A total of more than 800 enemy soldiers were killed and more than 1,500 were captured. Some people escaped and are now being pursued by the cavalry," Meng Songhai said.

Yang Dasha nodded, "How many casualties did we have?"

Meng Songhai grinned, "If these guys don't fight, our casualties will be very few. More than a hundred people were killed and nearly three hundred people were injured. Except for the seriously injured who need to be transported back, there are more than two hundred people bandaged and bandaged." , does not hinder the next battle.”

At the cost of more than a hundred people being killed. The enemy army of more than 3,000 people was completely wiped out. This was obviously a brilliant victory, but Yang Dasha was not very excited and shook his head, "These guys are much worse than the Donghu Army without fighting. It's really strange. Didn't I say that the soldiers of Tianhe County are not inferior to the standing army of Yan State? I have seen the guys under Chen Bin and Luo Weiran fighting, and they do have their own skills.

"

Meng Songhai chuckled and said: "That's what I said, but these Tianhe County soldiers haven't fought in a long time. The standing army of Yan State. At least they fought at different places. Luo Weiran and Chen Bin's troops were face to face with the Donghu people. After fighting in many battles and defecting to us, we fought head-on with the Donghu people for almost a year, and even the rusty nails were polished, how can these pustules compare."

"We still suffered four to five hundred casualties when we hit these pustules. What's so funny about you." Yang Dasha looked at Meng Songhai and said rudely, "With these silver-like wax gun tips, I feel very distressed even if a person dies. !”

Meng Songhai felt a little aggrieved, "Commander, we are all new recruits. Many of them reacted inappropriately in battle. Some of them stabbed others with one shot, but their own calves were twisted. Some of them killed someone and had their faces splattered with blood on the spot. He started vomiting, tell me, isn’t this asking for death on the battlefield? The officers below are throwing a tantrum!”

Yang Dasha looked up, and sure enough, from the various ministries gathered in the distance, many officers were waving their whips, jumping around and cursing, obviously very angry. It would be fine if they died without fighting, because these things were done by others, which really made these grassroots officers faint with anger. These soldiers were all brought out by them through hard work.

"It would be good to fight two more battles!" Yang Dasha was silent for a moment, "But that's fine, the more pustious the enemy is, the smaller our losses will be. When they come over, we will be dragged into the battlefield with the Donghu people. Go up there, it’s the killing place.”

"Teacher, what should we do next?" Mei Hua said eagerly, "I haven't had enough yet!"

"You have a good time." Yang Dasha smiled ferociously, squatted down, reached out and pinched Yao Changrong's chin, raised his head, and stared at him.

Yang Dasha's appearance was really unflattering. At this time, his upper body was covered with scars, and there were still a few scars on his face. At this moment, he and Yao Changrong were almost nose to nose, and Yao Changrong looked at each other. After a moment, he finally couldn't resist the strong murderous aura on the other side and actually sat down on the ground.

Yang Dasha snorted, "Death or life?"

Yao Changrong was trembling a little. Mei Hua on one side pulled out the knife impatiently and rubbed it on his armor, making an unpleasant squeaking sound, "Hurry up, if you want to die, I will give you a knife right away. You Why are you shaking? If you shake it again, my hands will slip. "

"Live, live!" Yao Changrong suddenly shouted.

Mei Hua chuckled and sheathed the knife, "You know what's going on."

Yang Dasha also laughed, "Just live. We want to take Shahe. If you can help us take this city, then live. Otherwise, you will die."

"Shahe? Shahe is an important town in Tianhe. The city is impregnable and has tens of thousands of soldiers defending it." Yao Changrong's words were shimmering.

"Bullshit, tens of thousands of soldiers? You already lost three thousand. Well, the other three thousand people who went to Baojing are probably going to the same fate as you. There are only four thousand people in Shahe now. But it's true that this city is difficult to attack. Otherwise, what would I need you for?" Yang Dasha roared, "Cooperate with us and take down Shahe City. I will give you a credit and you can still live well. Otherwise, once the knife is pulled and blood rushes up, you will be finished."

"My family is still in Shahe City!" Yao Changrong actually cried.

"Look at you, you are still a general!" Mei Hua said disdainfully, "You help us take over Shahe City, and Shahe City will be ours. What will happen to your family? If you don't agree, when we take over Shahe City, we will be the first to kill your whole family."

"How do you want me to help you?" Yao Changrong was completely defeated.

"It's simple, Mei Hua, pick one or two hundred timid Tianhe soldiers, and then you take all the troops in your camp, change into their Tianhe County soldiers' clothes, and go with them to trick the city gate for me."

"Okay!" Mei Hua was very happy, and got the first prize again. He was the first to enter the city, and the credit was great!

"Calculate the time, go to trick the city at night, and after entering the city gate, firmly control the city gate for at least half an hour, and wait for my main force to arrive." Yang Dasha said.

"I understand, let alone half an hour, even an hour is no problem." Mei Hua puffed out his chest.

"Don't be so slick, kid. I'll beat you up." Yang Dasha snorted, "Taking Shahe is an important part of this action plan. We can't afford any mistakes. The governor's main force is coming soon. I don't want us to be wandering around Shahe City after the governor's main force arrives."

"Understood!" Mei Hua turned around and went to pick people.

An hour later, more than 200 Tianhe County soldiers were accompanied by more than 1,000 Tianhe County soldiers who had changed their uniforms and headed all the way to Shahe. Half an hour later, the main force led by Yang Dasha also started their journey. They also brought a lot of prisoners. These prisoners will be escorted to Yiyang County for detention. The county jail there will definitely be full these days, until the militia under the command of Zheng Jun, the governor of Liaoxi County, arrives and abducts these prisoners. Hetao is just short of people. These prisoners will be sent to Hetao for reform for a few years.

Shahe is an important town in Tianhe County. In addition to its convenient transportation and the intersection of several counties, it is also an important grain storage point in Tianhe County. The grain in Shahe Warehouse is the most important grain supply place for Jicheng, the capital of Yan State. Every day, tens of thousands of kilograms of grain are transported from here to Jicheng, and the entire Shahe Warehouse stores millions of kilograms of grain.

Ji Wugui stationed tens of thousands of troops in Shahe to protect Shahe Warehouse.

Yiyang and Baojing were suddenly attacked and occupied by the Eastern Expedition Army. Ji Heng was shocked and angry. After finding out that the enemy troops that entered were only two thousand people, he finally put his mind at ease. The Eastern Expedition Army is now fighting on several fronts and is seriously short of troops. It seems that the opponent is also out of tricks. He actually wants to mobilize the Yan army's troops by attacking Tianhe County to reduce the pressure on other battlefields. However, Ji Heng, who has tens of thousands of troops, naturally will not take this little force seriously. He sent two troops to drive the opponent away and that was it.

But after nightfall, he felt a little uneasy. Logically speaking, there should be news from the distance of dozens of miles, but the two troops sent out have not sent back even a messenger. Could it be that the enemy is defending the city and they can't take it down after a long attack?

"General, General!"

Just when he was feeling a little uneasy, there was a panic shout from outside, and an officer rushed in directly, "It's bad, it's bad, the scouts we sent out are back, General Yao and his men were defeated, and are now fleeing back to Shahe."

"Defeated?" Ji Heng didn't react for a while.

"We were defeated. The scouts intercepted a few fast-running fleeing soldiers. They said that there were thousands of enemy troops over there. The enemy's strength reached several thousand, all of them elite. They attacked General Yao's troops and defeated our troops with one charge. Now General Yao is desperately fleeing back. The enemy is only ten miles away from them."

Ji Heng was shocked and grabbed the knife hanging on the wall. "Let's go, follow me to the city wall. Sound the alarm in the city immediately and gather all the troops to the city wall. Also, send a messenger immediately to ask for help from Ji Junshou." (To be continued..)
