Chapter 1772 Wind and Snow
Snowflakes flew, as if the clouds all over the sky were smashed and thrown down.
Between the sky and the earth, there is snow white, silver white, gray white, all kinds of white, it seems that even the boundary between the sky and the earth has disappeared in the flying snowflakes.
The cavalry of the brigade is advancing along the river along the originally surveyed route in the snowy sky. The war horse exhaled white gas and snorted loudly, and the people, like monsters, billowed white smoke outside the linen covering their mouths and noses.
Except for the creaking sound of stepping on the snow and the sound of brushing and dragging, basically no one in the entire queue spoke, and it seemed that all their energy was left to fight against the wind and snow.
At the beginning, some people would curse Fengxue from time to time, but as time went by, many people knew that God couldn''t hear what the human beings like ants were calling, so they all shut up, at least for a while. It can maintain physical strength and prevent wind and snow from being stuffed into the mouth.
Zhao Yun was basically at the front of the entire queue. On the one hand, he had to look at the direction, and on the other hand, he also needed to observe the movement around him. Unrelenting, tall and straight, people can''t help but feel a sense of security.
Zhao Yun, like other soldiers, covered his mouth, nose and eyes with a piece of thick spun black gauze. Under the black gauze, his eyes were still calm and sharp, as if nothing could disturb his thoughts.
Although it is said that a lot of preparations have been made, and even exploration has been done in advance, when he actually walks, it still doesn''t feel like marching, but like fighting against the sky and the earth, and fighting against the wind and snow. However, Zhao Yun also felt a little I realize that if I can really succeed this time, every step I take now will be a huge growth for myself and all the soldiers behind me. This kind of growth will penetrate into the depths of everyone''s soul, precipitate into courage, and transform into combat power.
Sima Yi rode his horse from behind and chased him to the front. Although he was in the snowstorm, he still did not lose his courtesy. He first cupped his hands on the horse, and then said softly behind the black gauze: "General, the snowstorm is getting stronger now. , do you want to find a place to camp and hide for a while?"
Fortunately, I walked along the river, otherwise such visibility would likely lead to deviation from the direction and getting lost, and once I really lost my way in the desert, the consequences would be unimaginable...
For so many years, there is only one big man, and there is only one, Li Guang, who can not only get lost in the desert, but what''s more interesting is that he can walk back when he gets lost...
Zhao Yun looked back.
Because of the wind and snow, the speed of travel is not fast. This is still in the case that most of the materials are transported by sleds. It is simply unimaginable to rely on horses and manpower as before. Even so, walking in the wind and snow still consumes a lot of energy for people and horses. Even the guard with the most sloppy mouth, the left ear, is panting now, like an old cow.
"How is Zhongda''s physical strength? Can he hold on?" Zhao Yun looked at Sima Yi and asked with some concern. At first, when Sima Yi first came, Zhao Yun didn''t really take Sima Yi seriously. As for the identity of the Sima family in Wen County, it was even more irrelevant to Zhao Yun. The feelings also gradually changed.
This is a smart person who can and is willing to endure hardships.
Many smart people, or small smart people, mostly leave the impression on others of how to steal, **** and play tricks in a reasonable and legal way, leaving the hard work to others, and doing it easily and simply by themselves, but such smart people have no Anyone who would like it, even if these smart people become leaders one day or something, would also not like people like this.
Sima Yi is smart, but he doesn''t appear treacherous, at least not now.
Originally, Sima Yi''s riding skills were mediocre, but Zhao Yun could see that Sima Yi was improving a little bit during the time, and now he could let go of his hands, walking on horseback freely like an experienced rider.
Sima Yi cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, General, for your concern. I''m a good official..." This was not due to Sima Yi''s strong support, but because Sima Yi had stayed in Pingyang for a long period of time, and it happened that Sima Yi was going to be in Pingyang for a long time. this period of time in the body. The abundance of food in Pingyang, especially meat, and Sima Yi himself is not short of money, eventually making Sima Yi stronger and more enduring than in history. After this period of baptism, it is like a The long sword was gradually opened, revealing a sharp brilliance.
Zhao Yun''s exposed eyes seemed to be smiling: "Then go a little further!"
Sima Yi was taken aback for a moment, then he understood immediately, and cupped his hands helplessly: "Obey!" Zhao Yun''s feelings for Sima Yi are the threshold valve...
Since a "bad-faced scholar" like Sima Yi can still have physical strength, let alone other rough northern soldiers.
Sima Yi shook his head slightly, pulled back the horse, and prepared to return to his original position.
Although it was cold in the wind and snow, Sima Yi''s heart was still hot. He knew that the significance of such an action at the moment was not only aimed at Xianbei, but also that it would have an earth-shaking change in the war mode of the entire Han Dynasty.
It is common sense not to send troops in winter. But now this common sense was broken by General Hussars, by Zhao Yun, and by himself, so even if they didn''t find Ke Bineng''s royal court this time, they succeeded!
When there is an army that can move freely in winter, whether it is for Xianbei or other aspects, it is as terrifying as a giant sword hanging above the head.
It was snowing all over the sky.
Sima Yi looked up, the snowflakes fell gently on his face, but it couldn''t calm the surging mood in his heart...
Suddenly, the three scouts brought broken jade and chaotic jade along the way, stirring up a hole in the hazy scenery in the distance!
There seemed to be some noise, and it seemed that there was no sound at all. Sima Yi suddenly heard his heart beating violently. It seemed that a strong smell of blood began to spread in the army, causing Sima Yi to shudder all over his body. His hair stood up in excitement, and he suddenly turned his head to look around, only to realize that the listless soldiers with lowered heads had opened their eyes like ferocious beasts at this moment, showing a bloodthirsty smile!
…(╬￣dish￣)…
The snow stopped, and the surrounding area was pure white.
Suddenly, a human head flew up in the air, bringing out a cavity of blood, burning the white snow, so bright that it was shockingly bright, destroying the purity of the whole.
Zhao Yun led his soldiers, and with just a charge, they pierced through the unsuspecting Xianbei tribe. The Xianbei people, who were suffering from the wind and snow, never expected that someone would come out of the wind and snow, let alone organized resistance. They were almost powerless to fight back and were completely suppressed.
Some Xianbei people ran out of the tents yelling, some raised their bows to shoot, and some held spears to stop and kill them, but firstly, the scattered attacks could not form a joint force, and secondly, the hussars pawned The armor is very sharp, and ordinary attacks can''t cause much damage.
Except for a few unlucky ghosts, it is not known whether the horse was tripped or hit, and they fell off the horse. However, what''s interesting is that in normal weather, these unlucky ghosts would probably not die or be half disabled, but now that there is a thick layer of snow on the ground, most of them are still wobbly and can stand up again after being planted...
Zhao Yun lightly kicked the horse, and rushed away in front of the resisting Xianbei crowd. The spear was rolling, and it seemed that even the remnant snow on the snow was driven up together, roaring in the cold air, and immediately killed three people. Xianbei was knocked down, and a Xianbei man directly in front of him was knocked into the air!
Another Xianbei shouted and ran towards Zhao Yun. Before he could stab out the spear in his hand, he was swept by Zhao Yun with a fierce shot, and was slammed between his waist and ribs. Through the leather robe, he saw A piece of the Xianbei man''s waist and ribs obviously collapsed, his feet were off the ground, and he fell to one side, vomiting out a big mouthful of blood, with some finely chopped flesh and blood.
The blood sprayed into the air, and then fell on the snow surface, corroding the original flat surface one by one, with bright red scars, and the heat only rose halfway, and then it was frozen, forming blood-red ice. The face reflected the frightening cold light in the hands of the Han cavalrymen.
After Zhao Yun broke the small-scale resistance of the Xianbei people, he pulled out the reins of the horse to restore its strength, and the soldiers following Zhao Yun were naturally divided into two parts, like dragons from the left and right, Overtook Zhao Yun, and roared away to both sides of the Xianbei camp!
One side has elite soldiers and horses, strong armor, and a sudden attack, while the other side is defenseless and does not have good armor and weapons.
Sima Yi stood behind with his saber in his hand, wondering if he could also rush up and get two kills and one kill, but the reason in his heart still let him control the reins. After all, it seemed that others did it easily, so he really did it It may not be easy. Now, although I say that my riding skills are not bad, there is still a gap between these hussar soldiers who are on horseback and on flat ground.
The guards beside Sima Yi also seemed to have sensed Sima Yi''s impulsive thoughts, so they dissuaded him: "Young master, let''s stay here... If your hands are really itchy, then someone will catch two Xianbei dogs..."
Sima Yi pondered for a moment, shook his head, looked at the battlefield again, and said, "No need. It''s just in case..." Although saying that he couldn''t go into battle in person somewhat shattered his little idea of ??being unparalleled in the battlefield, Sima Yi could still It is important to distinguish between those. As for letting the guards tie up the Xianbei people to satisfy his desire to kill, forget it, he would not have fallen to such a point.
The Xianbei people have obviously fallen into chaos and panic. Some people are resisting, some people are crying loudly, and some even kneel down in the snow and bury their heads on the ground...
It''s a little pitiful, and a pity, but it''s all because you were born in the wrong place.
If you have an afterlife, remember to be a Han Chinese.
"Send people to patrol the surrounding area. Don''t pay attention to those who flee on foot! If there are horse drivers, shoot and kill the horses first!" Sima Yi turned his head and ordered. In this kind of weather, if you don''t have the help of war horses and don''t bring supplies and equipment, even if you escape, you won''t be able to get to the next Xianbei camp!
The soldiers behind took the order, whistled, and took twenty or thirty people and walked towards the two sides of the camp.
The battle in the Xianbei camp was coming to an end. As the leader of the Xianbei camp was knocked down, the resistance of the entire Xianbei camp completely collapsed and disappeared, leaving only the wailing of the whole place.
Sitting on the horseback, Zhao Yun looked at the leader of Xianbei who was coughing up blood, and said, "You won''t survive... But you still have tribal subordinates, and these old and weak women and children... After all, where is the next camp? If you Tell me honestly, after finding the next camp, all your young and old can still survive...how? I can learn Xianbei dialect, right?"
"Han dog..." The leader of Xianbei seemed to have been injured in his chest and abdomen, and there was blood seeping out of his mouth and nose, but he still didn''t howl in pain. He just stared at Zhao Yun and coughed several times before continuing. , "Ahem... who are you?"
"So-and-so, Chang Shan, Zhao Zilong." Zhao Yun said, "Your time is running out... If you tell the truth, I will give you a good time! If you young and old in the tribe can find the location of the next tribe, I promise , they can still live! If you can’t find it... Hehe... But, if you don’t want to say it, it doesn’t really matter, because in fact, we know the general direction! It depends on whether you want people in your tribe to live Go down... just say it!"
"Cough cough..." The leader of Xianbei coughed up some clotted blood again, panting, "Han dog... haha, cough cough, are you going to the next camp... Facing the direction of the rising sun, turn to the left by about an arm, Two and a half days away... go, go die..."
The Xianbei leader grumbled, coughing up the following curse mixed with blood.
After finishing speaking, the Xianbei leader closed his eyes and waited to die, and he didn''t say that Zhao Yun should make an oath, because normal people know that oaths are meant to be broken, and they still believe in the other party''s oath when they are on opposite sides. It''s so stupid that it''s not as good as a pig.
Zhao Yun nodded, got off his horse and walked up to the Xianbei leader, then pulled the Xianbei leader to his knees and sat up, pressed on his shoulder, nodded slightly to the Xianbei leader, and immediately pulled out the saber at his waist , Slashed down with one blow!
The human head flew up, and the headless body rolled down into the snow, staining a large area red.
Zhao Yun shook off the blood on the saber, and issued a series of orders: "Order the scouts to go to the northeast to investigate! Order Sima Zhongda to check and distribute the supplies! Gather these Xianbei together to take care of them! Repair the rest on the spot! Set off tomorrow!"
