[R18] Will drink wine – “About Wine” Chapter 133 [English]

Chapter 128 Enemy Attack

Bianbo Camp is an important supply area on the Libei border. In order to keep the frontline soldiers and horses strong, Xiao Jiming set up Sha 1, Sha 2 and Sha 3 battalions in the southeast of Libei to serve as a barrier to Bianbo Camp.Bianbo Camp stores military rations and equipment for the front line all year round. There are also war horses here as replacement horses for the front line.

Wu Ziyu woke up before dawn in the morning.He squatted at the door of the tent and asked the soldiers to pour water on his head. He said: “The front line was fought too hard. I ran away when I opened my eyes and lay down when I closed my eyes. I haven’t taken a shower for half a month.”

The soldier handed him a veil, and he wiped his face with it.

“Eat something good in these two days. In three days we have to go north to replace Guo Weili’s soldiers. We also asked Biansha Baldy to pay for Tudalong Banner. This battle has already reached our doorstep.”

Wu Ziyu is the youngest general in Libei’s current general ranks. He was originally a guard in the palace. He was dismissed from his original post by Xiao Jiming because of drinking and causing trouble and was placed in the military camp.He is not very good at fighting, but he is very good at escorting baggage and allocating food.Before the spring, Libei’s army was in short supply of food, so he defrauded a batch of food from the Zhongbo bandits to relieve the urgent need at the front of the battle.

When Chen Yang went to Libei to escort grain, he met Wu Ziyu.He followed Xiao Fangxu for the past two months, running until his legs were broken. He finally moved to Bianbo Camp to rest, and the soldiers under his command were exhausted.

“I thought it would be easy to drive out the Snakes when the prince came,” the soldier took Wu Ziyu’s dirty handkerchief and washed it in the basin. “Who knew it would get harder and harder. The borderline has retreated to the edge of the Shayi Camp. If this continues, the Bianbo Camp will have to move back.”

Wu Ziyu wiped his neck with a wet handkerchief, looked to the east with his shirt bare, and said: “Once Bianbo Camp moves back, all the crown prince’s layout in the southeast will be nullified. This is the root of Biansan Camp’s ability to maintain normal operations, and it cannot be thrown away.”

The soldier picked up a basin, poured the water, and said: “We can’t afford dry consumption. Soldiers aside, there are military craftsmen in these camps, and they all need to eat. If the second master doesn’t rebel, he can stay in Qudu and become the capital, and then forget about this. But now that he has killed the emperor, Juexi will no longer supply military rations, and the reserves of the Northeast Grain and Horse Road will not last long.”

Wu Ziyu was covered with a kerchief, squinting at the sky through the gap of dripping water, and did not answer the soldiers’ complaints.

The soldier put down the basin and said: “General, let’s have steamed buns and milk tea for breakfast. The milk is a good thing that has just been brought from behind. It can’t be put away, so you have to drink it as soon as possible. I’ll ask the cook to use rough tea to wash the thick milk skin, you-”

Wu Ziyu raised his index finger to signal the soldiers to shut up.He listened to the splashing water and footsteps around him, looked at the sky, and did not hear the whistle of today’s eagle patrol.He listened for a moment and asked: “Has the patrol team returned last night?”

The soldier was washing his feet with water. Hearing the words, he raised his head and looked at the sky, saying: “It’s not yet the hour. It will be at least three quarters to go back from Shasan Camp.”

“Why didn’t I hear the Eagle Patrol whistle?”

“We didn’t let them out,” the soldier hesitated and said, “We arrived at the camp last night and were too tired, so we didn’t report it to the general immediately. The eagles we brought back this time were all injured. They were caught so hard by the falcons of the Biansha Cavalry at the battle site that even their roars were broken. Eagle owners cherish their children, so we are back here again. We will skip the eagle patrol today and let the doctor look at their injuries.”

It is difficult to raise eagles, and you need to have enough patience when growing up. The eagles that can serve as scouts are only one in a hundred. Although they are not sea greens, they are still precious.This time Xiao Fangxu was fighting at the front. The man was not fighting well, and the eagle was not fighting well either.In Libei, horses and eagles are good brothers, and they have a deep relationship with the cavalry. No matter which one is hurt, the person will not be happy.

Wu Ziyu pulled off his handkerchief, whistled with his fingers, and an eagle flew down from the top of the tent.Because Wu Ziyu was not wearing any clothes, the eagle did not land on him, but jumped onto the clothes-drying pole.Wu Ziyu said: “Let me go. It’s war time now. Avoiding the eagle patrol is like losing an eye. Even if you are in the Bianbo camp, you can’t be careless.”

The soldier said: “…Chi has been patrolling the battlefield for half a month, general…”

“There’s no way,” Wu Ziyu said with a rough voice. He looked up at Chi, but said very gently, “Go.”

Chi spread his wings and soared into the air, hovering above Bianbo Camp for a moment, then rushed into the eastern twilight.

Wu Ziyu entered the tent with his arms bare, and warned: “The horses that followed us down will also be replaced, and the spare horses will be taken north in three days. Guo Weili was overwhelmed by the Viper tribe at Tudalong Banner. A group of brothers died, and many horses were stuck in the swamp. He has sent three military reports to urge us, and we are in urgent need of new horses.”

The private soldier put on his shoes barefoot and followed behind, saying: “We asked people to prepare early in the morning, but this batch of horses is the last batch. Autumn has not arrived, and our new horses in the territory have not come down.”

“Let me talk to him.” Wu Ziyu put on his clothes.

Guo Weili was promoted by Xiao Jiming single-handedly. This person can fight, but he is most suitable for Xiao Jiming to use.Because Xiao Jiming’s supply is like an iron chain, which can pull him back every time Guo Weili comes up, saving the main force from serious damage, and he is also the most convinced of Xiao Jiming.Now that the commander-in-chief has been replaced by Xiao Fangxu, the style of play is different. He has no one to hold him back, so there are more places to suffer.

Wu Ziyu retreated, bringing with him a batch of equipment that needed to be repaired on the front line.The Libei Iron Cavalry is extremely equipment-hungry and relies heavily on baggage, so there are more than 10,000 military craftsmen.These military craftsmen are scattered in various major camps. When there is a war, they have to repair equipment for the cavalry day and night.

Wu Ziyu’s own armor was also seriously worn out. He went to the military craftsman’s tent to check. He asked the soldiers several times during the process, but there was no news of Chi’s return.When it was almost noon, sparks flew out of the stove, and it was so hot that people couldn’t breathe.

It’s so hot that I feel sleepy.The wind outside the tent was hot. Wu Ziyu looked at the ground with sweat on his head. The steamer-like temperature had already caused many military craftsmen to suffer from sunstroke.Wu Ziyu made people pour cold water on him, but it was only a drop in the bucket.

“Let the kitchen boil the mung beans as much as you need.” Wu Ziyu buried his face in the cold handkerchief and ordered the soldiers, “There can be no delay in repairing the equipment. The prince is still wearing rotten armor.”

The soldier nodded in response, opening his collar due to the heat and not wearing any armor.He was about to turn around, but he felt a few drops of water fall on his face. He said strangely: “Why is it raining…”

Wu Ziyu’s neck was also stained with water, but the water was sticky.He raised his head and saw Chi’s figure rushing out of the scorching sun, and suddenly fell down.However, Chi fell halfway, and two falcons suddenly jumped out of the air. They grabbed Chi with all their strength and took off again.Chi let out a shrill scream, and his feathers flew away.

Wu Ziyu stood up almost immediately. Someone on the tower in the distance was already shouting: “The enemy is attacking——!”

The drum banged loudly, hitting Wu Ziyu’s chest hard.He immediately ordered: “Armor, this is a sneak attack by the Eagle Division, not the cavalry of the Viper Division – don’t panic!”

The curtains were opened in unison. From dressing to wearing armor, Libei Iron Cavalry made every step flawless.They gradually transformed from people one by one into steel caged under dull heavy armor, during which they moved quickly and methodically.

“The sixth team is going to strictly guard the grain storehouse, and the third team is going to strictly guard the granary. If the forward led by me is killed, Bianbo Camp will inevitably fall. When you see that the situation is critical, don’t wait any longer, let go of the soldiers immediately, and lead the military craftsman to rush along the horse road to the northeast grain horse road, where there is Zhaohui’s Liuyang Third Battalion.” In the gap between Wu Ziyu’s words, he saw that Chi had fallen to the ground, and the shocking red color made himHe paused for a moment, then quickly turned his head, grabbed the soldiers, and said, “Bianbo Camp has fallen. The horses and military craftsmen can leave, but the food cannot be sent away. If necessary, set fire to it. Don’t leave even a grain of rice to the Yingying Department! Go home, the prince is still in charge of Dajie!”

According to common sense, when the situation is not good, the general should retreat with his troops, leaving the forward to delay.However, Wu Ziyu expected that this sneak attack would be quite powerful. There were only two possibilities for the Biansha people to bypass the Sha 3rd Battalion in front of the Bianbo Camp. One was that they took a shortcut and came over quietly; the other was that Xiao Fangxu and Zuo Qianqiu were all killed, the front line collapsed, and the Sha 3rd Battalion was completely wiped out before they even had time to send back a military report.

Regardless of the possibility, the people who came to attack this time should not be underestimated.Wu Ziyu didn’t dare to give his time to others, he had to stay here by himself.

Wu Ziyu walked through the team while putting on his helmet: “Where is the enemy attack——”

Before Wu Ziyu could finish his words, a boulder as big as a man’s arm fell from the sky and crashed into the middle of the newly erected watchtower. The watchtower didn’t even have time to make a sound of collapse before it knocked down a tent.

“Trebuchet!” the soldiers shouted loudly from behind, “General, they are coming from the south!”

“What a stupid bandit!” Wu Ziyu spat, “Get on the horse! They are carrying heavy equipment and it is difficult to move around. They don’t dare to say anything when they go around. Without the ponies from the horse department, these people can’t escape!”

But Wanxi soon neighed, and with the horses running hastily, there were scimitars and fire.The other party had the same idea as Wu Ziyu, slaughtering the horses that could not be taken away and burning the food that could not be carried away. In this way, the supplies from Libei to the north would be tight immediately.Food can be redeployed in some way, but without these war horses, Guo Weili’s permanent battalion will have no combat capability.

“Fuck your mother…” Wu Ziyu slowly held the knife, “Let Team 6 lead the horses and go first!”

The soldiers got on their horses, and all the tents near the tent were on fire. He led the people and rushed over.The saddle suddenly sank, and the soldiers secretly thought something was wrong. The horse behind them was attacked and reared its hooves, with a spider-like Biansha soldier on its belly.The Biansha soldier pulled out a dagger from the side of his leg and stabbed the horse in the belly.

The dagger made white marks on the armor, but it didn’t penetrate at all.

The war horse has landed. The soldiers rolled down and dismounted, drew their swords and collided with the soldiers on the border.The armor of the Libei Iron Cavalry was so heavy that the Biansha soldiers were knocked so hard that their soles scraped the ground.But human armor is not as hard as horse armor. The soldiers cut off the opponent’s head and received the knife themselves.

This group of border soldiers were like locusts. Facing a trapped beast like the Libei Iron Cavalry, they chose to surround and fight to the death.The helmet that Wu Ziyu was wearing was taken off, and he was surrounded by several people. The fire had already burned the horse that had not run out, and the neighing was filled with blood, which made Wu Ziyu’s ears sting.

He is not a general who can fight, and the soldiers under his command are also the reserve transportation team of the Libei Iron Cavalry.They had just retreated from the battlefield a few days ago, and their exhausted bodies were unable to withstand such a strong attack, not to mention that they had to disperse their manpower to protect the Libei military craftsmen who were as important as the war horses.

The soldiers had already climbed onto their horses again, and he drove the horses to knock over the railings of the ferocious fire, and the horses inside ran out in an instant.

Wu Ziyu said: “Let the military craftsman mount the horse, take off the armor and get on the horse road quickly…”

Wu Ziyu’s voice was still in the air, and his back suddenly sank.He was pushed down by two people, and then he was knocked to the ground.The back of his head, which had lost the protection of his helmet, hit the ground hard. The next moment, a rope was tied around his neck, and the two of them worked together to drag him.

Wu Ziyu tugged on the rope that was tightened around his neck, and the tone of his voice changed due to the strangulation, and he hissed to himself at the back of the soldier: “We’ve arrived… ahem, we’ve arrived at the camp… tell Zhaohui to go north…”

Sweat dripped into his eyes, making Wu Ziyu almost unable to open his eyes.He was in the billowing smoke, out of breath, watching the sky turn yellow, and the group of ragged red falcons were circling.

“Fuck…” Wu Zi Yubei came out of it, his eyes stung by sweat were blurred with tears, and he kept chanting, “…fuck!”

The person has been dragged to the edge of the sea of ​​fire, and the sound of horse hooves is chaotic.Wu Ziyu hit the stone, hooked on the railing, and suffered severe pain from the fire.

The falcons in the sky suddenly dispersed, and then the eagle’s cry flew straight into the sky from the wind, and it suddenly grabbed the falcon’s back in the air, and the two sides fought fiercely.At the same time, the sound of fast horses came closer from far away. Wu Ziyu was choked by the smoke and couldn’t see clearly. He could only vaguely see the tall body standing firmly on the horse’s back.

He was shocked and shouted: “Your Majesty!”

Wu Ziyu’s ankle tightened, and he heard Chen Yang shout: “Drag him out!”

Wu Ziyu’s throat tightened, and he hurriedly said in a hoarse voice: “Hang it, drag it! It’s still hanging on my neck!”

Chen Yang immediately let go and swung his knife and hit Wu Ziyu’s neck. Wu Ziyu was so frightened that his hair stood on end, and he was dragged out with a collar around his neck.He rolled over to extinguish the fire, panting and raising his eyes, looking at the man on horseback against the sun as he turned over and dismounted, raised his finger and whistled between his lips.

The falcon swooped down from mid-air with a violent swing, its feathers were torn and scattered, and the falcon let out a cry of pain.The sharp claws stepped on the Falcon like knives. It rushed to Xiao Chiye and threw the Falcon to the ground with its claws.

“It’s not dad,” Xiao Chiye raised his arm to support Meng and looked back at Wu Ziyu, “It’s your second son.”
