Qi Yuan obeyed the order and began to select others according to Qin Meng's requirements.
After selecting the qualified people, there were indeed more people than that, so Qi Yuan got some suggested tickets for the soldiers to draw.
Qin Meng, Xie Yun, and Zhou Lie naturally did not participate.
But in the process of drawing lots, there was still an episode.
Some soldiers didn't want to stay. They won the remaining lottery. They immediately said that they were willing to follow the general to the death and could exchange it with others.
In such a trouble, all the people who were drawn made such a statement, and even those who met the conditions for keeping their fathers and brothers wanted to follow Qin Meng and kill the enemy together.
Qin Meng asked these people to gather alone and patted their shoulders one by one.
"Brothers, I know that you are also hot-blooded men, who don't bother to get a hard-won chance to survive. However, the wounded brothers need someone to take care of, and the incense in Houndstooth Village cannot be broken. I will leave a letter to Shangfeng , Indicating that you are staying under my order."
Speaking of this, Qin Meng's eyes flashed with sentimental light.
"I play with merit, and I implore you to take off your military uniforms and return to your hometown. Stay alive and marry a wife. Give birth to a lot of children. Tell them that there used to be three thousand soldiers in the Houndstooth Village who served the country and the people and stained the battlefield with blood. You, once were one of them, this is the highest glory of Da Sui Erlang! In this way, the achievements of the soldiers in Houndstooth Village will be passed on from generation to generation, and the iron and blood spirit of the soldiers in Houndya Village will never die!"
Plops, all the people who stayed knelt in front of Qin Meng, crying loudly.
Qin Meng sighed secretly, and said Qiyuan: "You ghostwriter, write a letter to General Xue."
Qi Yuan also burst into tears. After taking the pen and paper, the tears fell on the paper.
"Hou Yazhai defended Qin Meng, led all the soldiers in Hou Yazhai, and worshipped General Xue: Wuyinling received the enemy, our department suffered a heavy loss, but the manpower was lost, and one of the three stops. Since Qinmeng, each has been wounded, and everyone has manpower. Tired, almost unable to fight again. However, when the country is in distress, when the army is fighting to death, how can you, as a soldier of the Great Sui, evade the battle? All the soldiers of the Fangzhai, the country is determined to die, but there is a mission, and you will die. Only in the previous battle, there were more than a hundred wounded and survivors. All of them were loyal and brave soldiers. Bishit could not fight again. Therefore, Qin Meng courageously left more than a hundred people to take care of him. This survivor returns to his hometown. In this way, the heroic spirits of the Fangzhai soldiers who fell in the battle, are grateful to the general's grace. Qin Meng will worship again.
After Qi Yuan finished writing, he choked up and handed the letter stained with tears to Qin Meng.
Qin Meng took a pen, took a look at it, signed his name, dried it and folded it, and handed it to Zhou Lie.
"Zhou Lie, immediately send a capable person to General Xue. Xie Yun, lead the team to work and seal all access channels." Qin Meng did this to cut everyone's minds, outside the work, If you can't get in, you can't get out of the fortifications.
Zhou Lie called out loudly, and the Houyazhai generals acted silently. They looked at the injured brothers, and then bid farewell to the brothers who were left behind, expressing good blessings, and making simple fortifications in an orderly manner.
"Xie Yun, Zhou Lie. It is said that I will order everyone, everyone will not unload their armours, their horses will not unsaddle their saddles, and settle down at the foot of the mountain, ready to meet the enemy at any time. The cavalry is arranged on the left and right wings of the infantry. , All non-intermittent investigations, I will listen to the latest battle report every half an hour."
Qin Meng's arrangement is tantamount to placing his own group in a very dangerous place.
Coming down from the Wuyin Ridge, you will directly face the open land due to the north. Once a large army passes by, Qin Meng’s flanks will be watched by Qin Meng's troops. No matter who it is, you can’t let this one threaten your flanks. Where to stay.
Without waiting for the horse to come back to report the situation, Xue Liang received Qin Meng's letter, wrote it back and sent it to him quickly.
As Qin Meng had expected, the Sui army had a large force. It fought an unimaginable large-scale battle with the main Turkic forces.
For the Romanian side, there have been three battles involving groups of more than 10,000 unilateral parties.
Xue Liang fought even harder on the west line.
Because the retreat route is involved, the Turks did not exert too much effort on the frontal battlefield. However, on the front line of Jiming Mountain, they invested a lot of elites. After changing the small-scale attack and dispersing before, they carried out a group charge. Following the principle of Sui Jun’s elimination on the spot.
Xue Liang even more frankly said that the determination to die the country has been made for all the soldiers on the Western Front. This is true for all soldiers on the Western Front. He has transferred Qin Meng's letters and the letters he wrote to Shangfeng to Yang Lin.
In order to fight this battle, no one will spare their lives.
At present, on the frontal battlefield, General Luo Fang has already made some gains and has achieved good results.
Because of this, the contention on the flanking battlefield has entered a white-hot state.
Whether it can continue to expand the results on the frontal battlefield depends on whether it can be contained on the flanking battlefield. As long as the flanks can always give the main pressure to the Turks. Then, it will give the main force of the Romanian Chinese army sufficient time.
Qin Meng sighed and conveyed the content of the letter to everyone.
The officers and soldiers of Houyazhai all wanted to start at this point. This battle was not provoked by the Great Sui, but the Turkic prisoners. On the side of the Sui Dynasty, it was to challenge and defend the country.
Since it is a war to defend the home and the country, since it is an inevitable death, why must it be others, not oneself
Qin Meng had already foreseen the strategic intentions of the Turks. On the western flanks, the Turks would adopt an extinction strategy, and all those they saw would be killed. It is not only a problem of protecting the safety of the flanks, but also a frightening taste.
In that case, there will be no longer a relatively small-scale purge of five or six thousand people.
The number of enemies who come again will be more than 10,000 at least.
Qin Meng ordered that, in addition to retaining a small number of investigators, most of the horse scouts would retreat when investigating the necessary directions.
Unexpectedly, when the air was filled with tension, a scout brought two people.
It was Hao Meng, and the soldier who took him away from the battlefield!
Qin Meng couldn't believe his eyes. Hao Meng's body was shaved blue and purple. It was obvious that he was shaved by branches through the woods.
Looking at the soldier, half of his face was swollen and tall, his whole body was worse than Hao Meng, and he was barely clothed.
"What's the matter?" Qin Meng said angrily.
Hao Meng wiped his nose and said with a silly smile: "Brother, this person is good or bad. He lied to me to go so far, just let me leave my brother. I found out and beat him. He still brought me to see my brother. How about me? Isn’t he very capable? I finally found my brother again."
Qin Meng was so angry that he wanted to slap out, but looking at Hao Meng's pure and somewhat complacent little eyes, he was already out of anger before he raised his hand.
Looking at the soldier again, he must have exhausted all his solutions and kept coaxing him. As a result, Hao Meng recognized the truth. Just to find myself, I must have suffered a lot.
"Brother gave you the command of the commander, take him to the mountain." Qin Meng cherished this stupid boy very much, but at this time, he had to give an order with a stern face.
"Brother, don't you... Don't want me?" Hao Meng's gaze slowly showed disappointment. There were tears in the little mung bean's eyes.
It was too lethal. Qin Meng had gone through countless bloody battles. Not to mention his iron heart, he was decisive enough to kill. But in front of Hao Meng's eyes, he couldn't harden it.
"Hao Meng, you are also a member of my Houndstooth Village, don't you listen to this general's orders?" Qin Meng couldn't bear to look at Hao Meng, but gave Xie Yun a look.
Xie Yun snorted coldly, picked up his bow, and gently pulled the bowstring.
The unfolding sound of the bowstring was not loud, but for Hao Meng, it was very scary.
Xie Yun's precise arrow pierced his shoulder, leaving an indelible impression on Hao Meng.
"Hurry up!" Xie Yun shouted murderously, knowing that Qin Meng felt sorry for this stupid boy.
Hao Meng looked at Qin Meng, then at Xie Yun, finally shedding tears, lowered her head, and walked towards the closed fortifications on Wuyin Ridge with the more embarrassed soldiers.
"Report--" With a long dragging sound, a scout sent out flew to Qin Meng: "Report to the general, there are a large number of Turkic men and horses approaching, and the number is estimated to be ten thousand."
Everyone's eyes fell on Qin Meng.
Everyone knows that this battle is more or less good, and that it is inevitable.
Now, it depends on how Qin Meng, the leading general, went to fight.
"Xie Yun and Zhou Lie, you two led the cavalry in the front line two and one hundred, and moved forward slowly. Keep a ten-foot distance from the rear infantry phalanx, waiting for my order, no life, no charge. Brother infantry, swing in a triangular array, tight Following the cavalry. In this battle, you can only move forward and not back. You must charge even if you have one soldier and one soldier. All ministries, carry out orders!"
Qin Meng made a decisive decision and gave an order, and the officers and soldiers of Houyazhai quickly mobilized.
Xie Yun and Zhou Lie, leading the cavalry in front, set up two horizontal cavalry lines, waiting for Qin Meng to lead the crowd to arrange the infantry triangle array. The entire team, under Qin Meng's order, moved forward suddenly.
"Report to General Qin, within the visual distance ahead, Turkic people have been found. The other party has also seen us and is adjusting the formation and preparing to attack!" The front row of cavalry ran over to report to Qin Meng.
Qin Meng waved his hand, motioned the man to go back, turned his head and said to the people in the infantry array: "I'm going to charge soon, but you can follow the cavalry."
After all, Qin Meng urged the horse to the cavalry array.
The officers and soldiers of Houyazhai are still moving forward slowly, and the Turkic people in the distance are also approaching.
The front line of the Turkic people is still adjusting, and the cavalry charge is not like in the movie. No matter what, the charge is over.
A swarm of bees rushed up, not without it, but it was a mob.
The real elite is to take into account the group's charge effect. With a constrained array charge, that is the sweeping cavalry.
Qin Meng's attention was all on adjusting the enemy's front.
The cavalry came forward this time to buffer the pressure of the rear infantry array. Through the delay of the cavalry, the enemy's speed was slowed down, so that the infantry could receive the enemy. Otherwise, the infantry might be completely finished with one charge.
Just when the Turks launched a charge and Qin Meng wanted to order his cavalry to charge, Qin Meng suddenly heard a shout: "Brother, brother..." (End of this chapter)
