[R18] Will drink wine – “About Wine” Chapter 205 [English]
byChapter 197 Unexpected
Fei Sheng was not sure what kind of medicine was sold in Yin Chang’s gourd. The Cizhou garrison did not move for two days after arriving in Fanzhou. Yin Chang went out several times and just wandered around after meals. Fei Sheng was anxious, but he was only accompanying him, not even a supervisor.
Fei Sheng wanted to write a letter to Shen Zechuan, but he was worried that Yin Chang really had two brushes. If the garrison triumphed in the end, he would become a real villain in front of Shen Zechuan, and his rationale would become irrational.
That day, Fei Sheng lay down to rest. He slept until around Xu o’clock, when he was suddenly woken up by his subordinates.
“No,” Jin Yiwei said, “that old villain has escaped!”
Fei Sheng sat up suddenly, picked up his boots, jumped and kicked, and asked in disbelief: “Run away? Ran away?!”
Fei Sheng opened the curtain and went out to see that there were still lights on in the whole camp, but there were only a thousand people in the garrison left.He’s chest beat violently, and he thought, “If Fanzhou loses the battle, then his future future will be over.”But he then thought about it, that’s not right!
Fanzhou will not be defeated no matter what, and he will be rewarded if he defeats it. Yin Chang can also secure his position as commander, so there is no reason for him to run away.Moreover, half of Zhongbo is surrounded by Shen Zechuan. Yin Chang has no place to go even if he runs away, unless he joins King Yi.
Fei Sheng suddenly raised his head, looked in the direction of Fanzhou, and said, “This old traitor doesn’t want to rebel against the enemy…”
The royal guards on night patrol came back with whips in hand. Before they could dismount, they blew their whistles: “There are traces of marching three miles to the southeast!”
Fei Sheng stepped forward and asked, “Are they the garrison or the Fanzhou thieves?”
“It’s coming towards us,” Jin Yiwei hung up his riding whip and straightened his sword. “It’s most likely a night attack.”
Fei Sheng’s heart dropped. He had never been a general from Qudu to Zhongbo, so he was not good at marching and fighting.He turned around and looked around the camp and said, “The commander has run away. Where is the general flag going down? Call him to come out and fight!”
The Jin Yiwei who was following behind said, “The general flag has also escaped!”
Fei Sheng regretted it to death. If he had known that Yin Chang was so unreliable, he would have dragged Gu Jin over, so that he could fill the vacancy at this moment.He calmed himself down and asked his subordinates: “How many people are left?”
“One thousand people,” Jin Yiwei said, leaning on the hilt of the knife, “this old man even rounded up the number.”
Fei Sheng gritted his teeth and said, “Thank you to his whole family!”
Fei Sheng had no choice but to bite the bullet.He asked the soldiers to extinguish all the torches and prepare to evacuate. At least they could not stay in the camp and be targeted by the enemy, and they could still survive in the snow.But when the fire was half extinguished, he could already hear the running footsteps of the enemy in the wind.
“Withdraw now,” Fei Sheng knew from the sound that he would not win, “Withdraw!”
The remaining soldiers tightened their belts, dragged their knives behind Jin Yiwei’s butt, and ran as fast as they could, abandoning soldiers and armor along the way, looking particularly embarrassed.Fei Sheng had a horse, but he did not dare to leave the thousand men and run back to Cizhou.The soldiers were lost before the battle even started, and he could already think of Shen Zechuan’s thunderous fury.
Fei Sheng hadn’t run a few miles away when he heard the sound of siege from ahead at night.They have camped here for several days. Fanzhou soldiers have already figured out the way and surrounded the camp in front and back, preparing to catch them all tonight.
Fei Sheng was in a dilemma. The situation was completely different from that in Dunzhou a few months ago. He was exposed in the wilderness without any shelter.The thousands of soldiers in hand may be able to resist a small group of surprise attacks, but they are determined to be unable to resist an onslaught that far exceeds their number several times.
Fanzhou soldiers gathered together. They were more mixed than the Cizhou garrison. They had no armor or even unified weapons.As the circle shrinks, they swarm closer like a colony of ants.Fei Sheng’s horses were next to the garrison. There were doubled enemy troops in all directions. The wave of people pushed against the human wall, making it difficult for the garrison to bend down.
In this situation, only by breaking the boat can there be a chance of survival.
Fei Sheng only hesitated for a moment while breathing, and then slashed his horse to death with a knife. While the blood was spilling, he raised his knife and shouted: “You and I are trapped beasts. If we can’t fight to the death to break through the encirclement tonight, we will have to die here!”
The soldiers were already frightened when they were surrounded. When they saw Fei Sheng riding a horse, they were afraid that he would abandon his troops and flee, so they were even more unwilling to fight and just wanted to kneel down and beg for mercy.But at this moment, Fei Sheng chopped down his own horse, showing his determination to advance and retreat together, and his morale was immediately boosted.Fei Sheng was well aware of the role of taking the lead. While he was speaking, he had already rushed forward, cut down the enemy troops head-on, and led his men to the northwest to break out of the encirclement.
At this moment, a roar suddenly erupted from the southeast, and a column of troops stabbed into the bodies of Fanzhou soldiers like sharp knives, scraping their livers and gallbladders to pieces, and blood spurted out like fountains.In less than a moment, all eight teams came in.
Yin Changcai’s face was so red after drinking that it was hard to tell whether he was drunk or cold.he blew his nose, jumped with joy, and loudly shouted to Fei Sheng through hundreds of people: “You are not dead yet!”
Fei Sheng’s sword was gone, and he kicked the enemy’s chest, saying a thousand words into one sentence: “Fuck!”
He is being used as bait by Yin Chang!
A total of 8,000 people from the Cizhou garrison came. There was no need for such a plan to attack Fanzhou, but Yin Chang realized something was wrong after arriving in Fanzhou. He had long heard that King Yi did not allow the people in the territory to flee out of the country, and set up soldiers and horses to block them on the border. However, they not only encountered no obstruction when they crossed the border, but they did not even encounter Fanzhou soldiers.
King Yi received the message, if he had the heart to surrender, he should have opened the door to welcome him.But not only did he not open the door, he also took away the soldiers and horses on the sideline. This was obviously concentrating his forces to prepare for a decisive battle with the Cizhou garrison.
Yin Chang guessed that Fanzhou would unite with the Dengzhou soldiers in order to win. They would only dare to fight like this if they crushed the Cizhou garrison in numbers.The old man was very thief and knew that he didn’t have enough people, so he threw Fei Sheng out and let the Fanzhou soldiers bite the hook. When the Fanzhou soldiers gathered into a group, they would then attack from behind with a sharp knife formation, first split them into pieces, and then break them one by one.
While Fei Sheng was wiping the blood, he saw that the sharp knife team was so powerful that Fanzhou soldiers could no longer gather together.
The sword edges of these teams face outwards on all sides. It can be clearly seen that they borrowed Lu Guangbai’s formation for fighting cavalry, but Yin Chang made changes. He arranged these teams very narrowly, and Lu Guangbai’s square “chariots” became long “sharp knives”.
Such a team of sharp knives are fierce and fast when attacking from behind. Once they penetrate the enemy’s camp, they can tear the opponent apart.The Fanzhou soldiers didn’t even have armor, so they didn’t even have time to cover their buttocks, and were cut into flesh in the blink of an eye.
This old man really has something!
Seeing that victory was within his reach, Fei Sheng couldn’t help but feel confident. Unexpectedly, before he could open his mouth, Yin Chang kicked him in the face.Although Yin Chang is older, he has real skills in his legs, causing Fei Sheng to stumble.As soon as Fei Sheng landed, the knife above his head swiped past him.
Fanzhou soldiers were calling for gold to retreat. Yin Chang chased after him with his sword, and shouted: “Where are you running away, Zhuzi!”
Since Fanzhou has gathered troops and horses, the main force coming tonight will be the main force in the territory. As long as these people are defeated, King Yi will have no possibility of resistance.The Fanzhou soldiers were disheartened, the morale of the Cizhou garrison was high, and a quick victory was at hand. Yin Chang would definitely not let them return to the city.
Fei Sheng got up and gave chase. Unexpectedly, this old man had good legs and feet and could run incredibly fast. He was running rampant in the dark, and Fei Sheng could only barely keep up.They chased them several miles away. Fei Sheng realized that the direction was wrong. He was about to call Yin Chang when he suddenly heard the sound of horse hoofbeats.
“Reinforcements!” Fei Sheng straightened his legs, trying to drag Yin Chang back, and shouted, “Mr. Yin, we are reinforcements from Fanzhou!”
Fei Sheng has sharp ears and eyes, which is the same as Gu Jin.He has few opportunities to join the army, and he does not have Gujin’s ability to distinguish military types by sound alone. However, he has extraordinary observation skills and can tell that the sound of the horse’s hooves is slightly deeper, unlike ordinary cavalry.
There are no stars in the night, and the snowy hills are rolling across the wilderness.The snow particles slid against the snow hills, rustled by the wind, and reached the feet of the Cizhou garrison.Yin Chang was as strong as a donkey, and he could already see a small number of cavalry rushing forward.He’s red nose was soaked in wine, and he couldn’t smell it despite the wind.
Fei Sheng’s face was covered with fine snow flakes, and he could smell the smell of sex in the wind at the moment the snow melted.Fei Sheng’s hair stood on end immediately, he suddenly stopped, waved his arms, and shouted sternly at the Jin Yiwei on the left and right: “Fire gun——!”
Before Fei Sheng’s voice could even finish, fire burst out in the darkness, like a falling meteor.Without thinking, Fei Sheng almost jumped up, threw himself on Yin Chang’s back, and rolled the old man into the snow. The loud bang rang in his ears, like a blunt instrument hitting his head, and Fei Sheng almost lost his voice.
Miscalculation!
Fei Sheng’s back was in burning pain when he rubbed it. He supported his body with one arm and shook his head vigorously.Because he couldn’t hear his own voice clearly, he could only shout at the top of his lungs at Yin Chang: “This thing burns your face! Back off, back off now!”
Fei Sheng had seen copper fire blunderbuss in the arsenal of the Eighth Battalion. This thing could only be equipped by the Spring Spring Battalion among the Eighth Battalion. It was controlled by the imperial court and the forging blueprints were in charge of the Ministry of War.Xiao Chiye and Shen Zechuan both had the idea of using fire weapons, but neither of them could get the drawings.
No wonder the cavalry was standing still just now, it was loading.The other party didn’t know how long they had been observing at night. They came not for the Cizhou garrison, but for Yin Chang.As the saying goes, you can hit a snake seven inches, and Yin Chang is the key point of the Cizhou garrison.
Yin Chang was stunned by the bullet. The old man struggled in the snow, covered his ears and shouted to Fei Sheng in horror: “Why the hell is this thundering!”
How could Fei Sheng have time to explain to this old country man who had never seen the world? He got up and ran back dragging Yin Chang.Yin Chang moved his palm away, stretched his head and looked back. The cavalry behind him exploded again. Yin Chang’s butt was rubbed by the exploding projectile, which made Yin Chang scream in pain.
Fei Sheng thought Yin Chang had been hit, so he said anxiously: “Don’t die!”
Fei Sheng must protect the old man no matter what tonight. He knows best that what Shen Zechuan lacks now is a general. Yin Chang will be of great use in the future.The key is, if Yin Chang dies here, Fei Sheng won’t fight. When he goes back in disgrace, not to mention his future, whether he can keep his original job is a problem. Shen Zechuan and Qiao Tianya can be used, and it doesn’t have to be he.
So Yin Chang must not die!
Yin Chang was frightened and ran away without Fei Sheng dragging him. He got rid of Fei Sheng in a few steps and muttered like a wheel: “Don’t hit me if you hit me. The old man has never done anything wrong, so I won’t hit anyone…”
Fart!
Fei Sheng followed behind and was very angry. He found the strength from nowhere and chased Yin Chang and cursed: “The old thief is too evil. You are not the one who left me in the camp as bait?”
Yin Chang twisted his neck and retorted: “Soldiers are crafty, they are crafty!”
They ran wildly in the wilderness at one go, but fortunately the other party had no intention of pursuing them, and they retreated after driving the Cizhou garrison for half a mile.The Cizhou garrison ran for half a night and fought with Fanzhou soldiers for half a night, and they were exhausted.On such a cold day, they were all sweating profusely and panting like cows.
Fei Sheng wiped his sweat and realized something while he was slowing down. He turned around, looked at the dim sky, spat hard and said, “I was cheated.”
* * *
It was already late at night when the military report came back to Cizhou. Shen Zechuan, wearing a toga, read Fei Sheng’s statement in the hall.The entire hall was silent, and no one dared to pry into Fu Jun’s expression.
Everyone thought that Fanzhou was the one in the pocket, but unexpectedly they encountered a tough fight.The Cizhou garrison prepared for half a year. Shen Zechuan invited Libei and the Forbidden Army to come for training. As a result, the first battle was fought so cowardly that everyone should be angry.
The sound of needle dropping could be heard in the study. Yao Wenyu covered her lips and coughed for a long time. While clenching her fist, she said: “The prince must temporarily calm down his anger. Fire blunderbuss have always been strictly prohibited by the imperial court, so their appearance in Fanzhou is unexpected. Although King Yi has such a sharp weapon, he still cannot change the already determined defeat.”
Yu Xiao, who had just returned from Dunzhou, didn’t feel hot anymore. He was afraid that Shen Zechuan would severely punish the garrison for this, so he said in a solemn atmosphere: “I will never waver if I betray you…”
Oh, I forgot to change into Mandarin!
Yu Xiaozai patted his knee in annoyance, and the staff around him immediately lowered their heads.
Shen Zechuan had calmed down after being interrupted by Yu Xiao again.He closed the letter, his expression became warmer, and the people below dared to breathe.
“Yuan Zhuo is right,” Kong Ling continued softly, “King Yi can’t change the sky even if he has a blunderbuss. Fanzhou is short of food, and he has no way to survive even if he stays behind closed doors.”
Yao Wenyu said as he lowered his sleeves: “But it’s strange… If King Yi had a gun in hand, why was he forced to this point? Just by selling it to the Luoshan bandits, he could earn enough to recruit new soldiers. Besides, this confrontation is not like King Yi’s past style.”
Zhou Gui remembered what Yao Wenyu said a few days ago, and immediately changed his expression and said, “Is it true that as Yuan Zhuo expected, King Yi has been killed by bandits in the territory? I feel very strange watching this battle.”
Zhou Gui and Yin Chang were familiar with each other, and he promoted Yin Chang not because Fei Sheng thought, but because he felt that Yin Chang had the ability to fight.If King Yi also had the ability to fight, then Fanzhou should have launched an attack on Cizhou long ago.
Kong Ling also became suspicious and said, “As Fei Shengxin said, he really doesn’t look like King Yi.”
Silence gradually returned to the study, and everyone was waiting for Shen Zechuan to speak.Shen Zechuan raised his eyes and looked at the crowd, his eyes like ice and snow, and said, “Reply to Yin Chang. In seven days, either the garrison will return in triumph, or he will come to see you.”
Shen Zechuan gave the garrison plenty of food and grass, and also gave the garrison sophisticated equipment. If the garrison couldn’t even take Fanzhou, there would be no need to think about future ambitions and hegemony.
There is no room for two tigers in one mountain.
After this spring, Zhongbo can only have one owner.Regardless of whether he is the real or fake King of Wings, Shen Zechuan will definitely choose Fanzhou.
