I’m The King Chapter 570: : come out in full force
Mu Qiu has lost his human appearance, not only has he lost a lot of weight, he is also very weak, his face is pale, he is lying on the chair, his hair is messy, his beard is unshaven, his dirty clothes are stained, and blood is accumulated , can no longer see the original color appearance.
Mu Qiu was already two hundred miles away, and with his own footsteps, he rushed back in three or four days. Who would have expected that because of what happened to the Donghu people last time, the other party would also become vigilant However, the patrols became more intensive. The heavy rain on the first day was fine, but after the weather cleared up the next day, teams of patrol soldiers were galloping back and forth. Although the patrol range was only more than a hundred miles away, for deep For Mu Qiu in the Donghu-controlled area, it was a matter of life and death.
Fortunately, although he is young, he has gone through great battles, and he has passed several times in front of the gate of Hades Palace. The more dangerous he is, the calmer he is.
Although this is the case, I have suffered so much. I mustered my last strength to hold a log and swim across the Liaohe River. When I saw the patrol team of the Zhengdong Army, I breathed a sigh of relief. past.
When Xu Yuan stepped into the door, Mu Qiu had just woken up. Seeing Xu Yuan, he bounced up, staggered, almost fell, but still held on for a while. military salute.
"Sit down!" Looking at Mu Qiu's appearance, he knew that he had suffered a lot. Xu Yuan originally wanted to comfort him, but when he thought of this kid going deep into the enemy-occupied area on his own initiative, his comrades in arms had to leave. There was no answer, but his heart hardened again. Mu Qiu was a young officer he valued, but if he didn't study his temperament well, if he really put it to great use in the future, it would harm not only himself and the army , will also implicate the entire army.
Mu Qiu really didn't have the strength to stand any longer, the guards on one side helped him to sit down, but Xu Yuan suddenly said something. "You came back alone, what about the others?"
As soon as Xu Yuan said this, Mu Qiu's body softened as if he had been slashed by a knife, but this time he knelt down and sobbed: "Please punish me, Commander, because I ignored the military order and entered the opposite bank It was too deep, and I ran into Donghu's sentinel cavalry and the five brothers who were traveling with me. They are all gone." While talking, he became even more sad, beat the ground with his hands, and yelled loudly.
Looking at Mu Qiu's painful appearance with cold eyes, he knows that this time he has learned a lesson, and he will be more cautious in his actions in the future. For such a seedling officer, polishing is a must. But you can't grind it too hard, if you lose your aggressiveness because of this, it's not the original intention.
"Your command was wrong, and your comrades were killed. Your position as an officer was cut off, and you are still serving in the personal army. Are you convinced?" Xu Yuan said.
"Subordinates are convinced, thank you Commander for not killing me!" Mu Qiu sobbed.
"Stand up. Kneeling is not practiced in the army, so what's the point of kneeling like this!" Xu Yuan snorted coldly.
Mu Qiu stood up and put his hand into his arms. He took out the iron pipe that the whole group was protecting desperately, and offered it with both hands. "This is the map discovered by the subordinate team."
Took the iron pipe from Mu Qiu, unscrewed the cap, the joints of the pipe were well sealed with wax, not afraid of being soaked in water, took out the drawing, picked up the pen from the table, and put Mu The map drawn by Qiu was added to the large map on the wall.
Adding the topography of this side, the big picture on the wall immediately becomes much richer. Xu Yuan also felt that his heart brightened a lot.
"Although you lost a few brothers, but you can exchange for the topography and landform here, it is not a waste of life. A merit is a merit, and a demerit is a demerit. Mu Qiu, in this regard, you have made a deed. Yes." Xu Yuan turned around and looked at Mu Qiu, "Using the map of this place, after the arrival of Commander Sun's brigade, if you use troops, you will have some confidence. Donghu people are not soft persimmons. Qiu, you have never gone on an expedition with the governor to Donghu, so don't underestimate them. This time you went deep into the Donghu controlled area, and you have the heart to underestimate them. Don't even think about it, you can keep Taiwei Zhou's 100,000 troops in this Montenegro Baishui guys, it’s not easy, we should be careful every step of the way, and it’s not too much to walk on thin ice, we must not take the lives of ourselves and brothers for nothing because of arrogance!"
"The subordinates can save it."
"You and General Tao said earlier that there was a major military situation, didn't you just mean this?" Xu Yuan asked after returning to his seat and sitting down.
"Commander, it is indeed because of the great military situation. I was forced by the Donghu people, and I was in a panic, but I bumped into a place. There, I found a large number of Donghu people's farmland. And those who opened up the land and farmland turned out to be last year. Captured soldiers of the Yan army." Mu Qiu said.
Xu Yuan stood up suddenly, "Soldiers of the Yan Army who were captured last year? How many are there? Which Donghu tribe is there, and how many garrisons are there?"
Seeing Xu Yuan's appearance, Mu Qiu knew that this time the risk was not in vain, "Commander, after I found out about this, I didn't rush to escape, but continued to lurk there for three days." My God, after carefully observing the situation there, there are no less than two thousand captives of the Yan army in the field, and the Donghu people guarding them are only about 500 Donghu cavalry. As for which tribe, I don’t know, I only know them A three-headed snake is painted on the banner it is flying.”
"The flag of the three-headed snake?" Xu Yuan frowned. Last year, he followed Gao Yuan to conquer Donghu and fought with many Donghu tribes, but he had never encountered such a flag. "Come here, please come and invite Luo Lei."
Luo Lei is a member of the Buyi tribe. He used to live in this area, near the Liaohe River, and close to the Donghu people. Maybe he knows which Donghu tribe this is.
"Two thousand captives, but only five hundred guards?" Tao Jiawang on the side couldn't help being very surprised, "Aren't they afraid that these captives will rebel?"
Mu Qiu also looked up at Xu Yuan, and this was exactly what he couldn't understand.
"You don't know that the Yan army's captives, the Dayan court has reached an agreement with the Donghu people, and will return them to Dayan in batches within five years. The first batch of 5,000 people has returned with Zhou Taiwei After entering the Yan Kingdom, this person has hope, so naturally he will not take risks, and in Donghu, they will naturally not keep these people in vain. The Yan army has tens of thousands of prisoners, and there are craftsmen who know various skills, but the most, I'm afraid that they are all farmers, and the Donghu people will naturally take advantage of them and pull them here to reclaim wasteland and farmland. It seems that although Thorpe hasn't freed up his hands to take care of this place, his eyes have finally turned around." Xu Yuan chuckled, "Very good, thousands of captives, getting them back will solve my urgent need."
Tao Jiawang frowned, "Commander, these people are all looking forward to returning home in five years. They have no hatred in their hearts and no fighting spirit in their chests. Even if they get them back, I'm afraid they won't be able to do anything."
Xu Yuan sneered: "Among the thousands of people, there must be some passionate people. How many can you find out? Besides, these thousands of people are farming where the Donghu people are, so can't they farm with us? Even if you can't fight, it's good to farm for us."
"I'm afraid that Dayan Chaotang will find out about these things and come to us to beg these people, whether to give them or not at that time, we need to think clearly about the pass here, otherwise it will cause some unnecessary troubles for the mansion .” Tao Jiawang continued.
"Fart trouble, Dayan court signed an agreement with the Donghu people, and it's about my conquest of Dongfu. These are the slaves we snatched back from Donghu. If we **** them, they are ours. As for wanting them to go back , let them argue with the Donghu people." Xu Yuan dismissed it. "Anyway, we can still spit out what is in our Zhengdong Mansion's mouth? You say this in front of the governor, believe it or not, the governor will spit out saliva on your face."
Tao Jiawang sneered, "The commander is right." Zhengdong Army has always taken advantage of any advantage, and tried to find some advantage if there is no advantage, and spit out the fat in the mouth. How is it the style of the governor?
"Besides, the Donghu people have already started farming in this area, we have to show them some color, there are only 500 cavalry guarding them, but they really don't take us seriously. Go kill them , give them a wake-up call."
Tao Jiawang nodded, "That's what it should be, but the commander, Mu Qiu has already shown up, and the bodies of the five brothers who died in battle are also left there. It is not difficult for the other party to determine which side we belong to. How can there be no reason not to reinforce the guard after we are gone? I am afraid that the reinforcements have arrived or are on the way now."
"So we have to hurry up!" Xu Yuan laughed, "Soldiers are precious and fast, let him be caught off guard first, Zong Wang, I will take all the cavalry to attack the opponent, and you and Ni Huazong will take all the infantry The **** then crossed the river, and after advancing a hundred li, set up an ambush, and if the Donghu people were to be chased by reinforcements, they would give him another ruthless blow.”
"Subordinates obey!"
While talking ~IndoMTL.com~ there were footsteps outside, and then Luo Lei appeared in front of everyone.
"Mr. Xu, General Tao!" Luo Lei clasped his fists and bowed to the two of them. He glanced at Mu Qiu from the corner of his eyes. He knew that this was Xu Yuanshen's own soldier for years, but he didn't really care.
"General Luo, you have lived by the Liao River for a long time, but do you know which Donghu tribe's flag is a three-headed snake?" Xu Yuan asked straight to the point.
"Three-headed snake flag?" Luo Lei was surprised, "That's the Wusu tribe. The Wusu tribe is Mrs. Thorpe's natal family. The whole family has about 5,000 tents and can pull out tens of thousands of cavalry. They are a big family, but they have always stayed away from here, why did the commander suddenly ask about this people?”
Xu Yuan chuckled, "Not far, not far, we will meet him soon."
That night, more than a thousand cavalrymen from the First Army of the Northern Field Army were fully armed, sat on a sheepskin raft, spent most of the night, crossed the Liao River, and then went away with whips. Although Mu Qiu was tired , but still acted as the guide of the whole team, and after they left, more infantry began to cross the river, and when the sun rose high, the bustling Pioneer City suddenly became In an empty city, except for the hundreds of soldiers who stayed behind, all of them went out.
