Chapter 23 General Yang Ye summoned
The city gate opened, Sheng Huaian and others dismounted and led the horses into the city.
Looking at the mighty war horses, each of which was a top-quality horse.
General Sun Hao, Wu Xiaowei and others opened their mouths wide.
These war horses can form a cavalry of thousands of people.
You know, their An Ning Army, with a scale of 30,000 people, only has 2,000 cavalry.
The reason is naturally that the Wei Dynasty lacks war horses and has no decent grassland for grazing and raising horses.
"General Sun!"
Seeing that General Sun Hao, the slave-breaking general, came to greet them, Sheng Huaian and others hurriedly performed the military salute.
"No need to be polite, are you going to rob the Xiongnu cavalry? You got so many good horses back." Sun Hao looked at the war horses, his eyes shining.
"Wu Xiaowei!" Sheng Huaian and others also saluted Wu Xiaowei.
After all, Wu Xiaowei was their superior.
Wu Xiaowei waved his hand, indicating that Sheng Huaian and others should not be polite.
He looked at Sheng Huaian, and now he was more and more curious. This kid was really capable.
He disappeared with his subordinates for five or six days, and came back with so many war horses.
"General, we did go to rob the Huns." Sheng Huaian replied with a smile.
"Tell me in detail!" Sun Hao became interested.
Looking at the sixty people led by Sheng Huaian, they actually had such abilities?
Sheng Huaian told all his experiences in the past few days.
The military lieutenant and the soldiers around him opened their mouths so wide that they could fit eggs.
This experience was really too magical. Fighting on the Huns' grasslands, killing countless enemies, and their own casualties were negligible.
Although it sounds simple, it is probably difficult to do it.
After all, they have never heard of this kind of guerrilla warfare.
"More than a thousand war horses, so many supplies, and killing so many enemies, you have done a great deed. When I report to General Yang, there will be a big reward." Sun Hao said with a smile.
This kid is really extraordinary. With the merit of attacking the camp, if his cultivation is enough, he can be promoted to lieutenant directly.
And looking at the aura of Sheng Huaian, it has only been a short time, but he has already reached the great perfection of martial arts.
A few days ago, this kid was only at the martial arts apprentice level, right? !
This cultivation growth rate is even more monstrous than those geniuses from big sects and big families.
Sheng Huaian and others returned, and brought back war horses and many supplies, which soon spread throughout the Anning Army.
"Old Wang and the others are not dead!?" Zhang Daniu widened his eyes after hearing this.
The old soldier glanced at Zhang Daniu: "Do you really want them to die?"
"No, that's not what I mean. I mean, they are resurrected again."
"Ah, that's not right. They were not killed by the Huns."
"Shut up!" The old soldier couldn't listen anymore.
If you can't speak, shut up.
Zhang Daniu scratched his hair and shut up obediently. He was just a little excited to hear that Sheng Huaian and the others were still alive, and his mouth was drooping.
The horses and supplies were handed over to the Anning Army, and the gold, silver, and jewelry and other gains were their own.
The supplies and horses handed over could also get a lot of military merit and rewards.
In particular, there were a lot of healing pills in the supplies.
Sheng Huaian and his men were arranged to go down and rest.
On the tower, Yang Ye looked at the Huns' camp and frowned slightly.
"The Huns have increased their troops!"
The other four generals saw the Huns' increase in troops, with some sorrow between their brows.
"The border is in danger, but they don't care and are still fighting for that position. What are the people at the border in their eyes?" said General Zhao Yongan, who broke the Lu, angrily.
"Shut up, watch your words!" Yang Ye glared at Zhao Yongan.
How can you say this casually! ?
Zhao Yongan then realized that he had spoken out of turn.
Although the other generals didn't say anything, they were also somewhat dissatisfied and angry like Zhao Yongan.
The battle of Anning Pass lasted for more than 20 days. Now the Xiongnu has increased its troops again. Anning Pass is in danger, but there is still no reinforcement from the court.
How can the generals guarding the pass not be angry?
"Kill!"
The war is still going on. The bodies of Xiongnu fell off the city wall one after another. Some soldiers on the city wall were also shot and killed by Xiongnu cavalry.
"Woo woo..."
The horn of war seemed so desolate.
Up to now, more than half of the troops of the Anning Pass defenders have been consumed by the Xiongnu army.
There are not many soldiers from the counties in the rear who came to support them. They are just perfunctory.
Today, Anning Pass is completely defended by the defenders of Anning Pass.
Sheng Huaian and others who were resting in the barracks were lazily basking in the sun and enjoying the rare quiet time.
During the five or six days on the grassland, they were worried all day long and did not live a peaceful life.
If the city was not under martial law, during the war, Sheng Huaian would have wanted to take his men to Yichun Tower to relax, relieve stress, and cultivate sentiment.
…
The war ended in the evening, the setting sun was as red as blood, and the world was full of murderous atmosphere.
The Hun army still left thousands of corpses behind.
At night, Sheng Huaian originally planned to meet the veterans, but General Yang Ye summoned him, so he had to meet General Yang Ye first.
The highest general of the Anning Pass garrison, General Pingbei Yang Ye, a fifth-rank general, a master-level strongman.
If Yang Ye hadn't guarded Anning Pass, this Anning Pass would have been trampled flat by the Huns' iron cavalry.
Sheng Huaian was still a little nervous when he was summoned by General Yang Ye.
No matter the other party's identity or the other party's cultivation, he now needs to look up to him and face him carefully.
"General, Sheng Huaian has arrived!" The messenger brought Sheng Huaian to Yang Ye's meeting room.
"Bring him in!" Yang Ye's voice came from the meeting room.
Calm and majestic!
Sheng Huaian was brought into the meeting room, where the five major generals were all.
Sheng Huaian looked at the six people, who were the highest generals of Anning Pass.
"Greetings, General Yang, generals!"
Everyone looked at Sheng Huaian who was saluting. Facing the eyes of the generals, Sheng Huaian felt a lot of pressure.
Everyone present was a warrior above the innate. Even if they restrained their momentum, the majesty accumulated in the army for many years was also very heavy.
"No need to be polite, this is our new young general in Anning Pass, and he is indeed a handsome man." Yang Ye saw Sheng Huaian and said with a smile.
According to military merits, Sheng Huaian was qualified to be awarded the rank of lieutenant and command a battalion.
"It's really good. You can be the first to attack the camp that night." General Zhao Yongan said with a smile.
"Dare to fight and dare to fight. You can be a general in the future." A deputy general also praised.
"I am short of a lieutenant and a captain. How about it? Are you interested in joining my regiment?" General Xuanfu Li Daoru looked at Sheng Huaian and smiled.
"Old Li, it's not good for you to snatch people in front of me?" Sun Hao said immediately.
The seventh battalion where Sheng Huaian is located is his regiment.
"You can't say that. This is called snatching people. It's just that the position of captain is more suitable for him. Putting him in your regiment is a bit of a waste of talent." Li Daoru is very optimistic about Sheng Huaian.
He has brains, dares to rush and dares to break through, and is decisive in killing.
Sheng Huaian was stunned. Why are these big guys starting to snatch people!
Is he so outstanding? Why are these generals paying attention to him.
"Okay, don't fight, I have other uses for this kid." Yang Ye said.
Several generals saw that they were going to use this kid!
Yang Ye looked at Sheng Huaian and said with a smile: "Sheng Huaian, he used to be a scholar, was drafted, showed his good archery talent in the first battle, and then the old soldiers passed on the practice of martial arts in the army. He was gifted in martial arts, brave in battle, and decisive in killing."
Sheng Huaian was shocked and a little stunned. Has he been investigated! ?
"Don't be afraid, I'm not checking your background. I called you here now because I have something for you to do." Yang Ye said.
"General, please speak!" Sheng Huaian said respectfully.
Yang Ye nodded: "Today, the Huns' army has begun to increase its troops again, with an estimated 50,000 troops and horses, and we have no reinforcements."
Sheng Huaian frowned. Another 50,000 troops were added, and they still had no reinforcements. This is not good news.
"I have heard about your deeds these days. Now I need you to lead the troops and go to the grassland again. Do you dare to go?" Yang Ye stared at Sheng Huaian.
He heard Sun Hao talk about what Sheng Huaian had done with his troops on the grassland in the past few days, so he wanted Sheng Huaian to go to the grassland to make trouble again.
"Of course, this matter is very dangerous. I will not force you. I will give you two days to consider it. You can reply to me in two days."
"No, you can go, but I have a condition." Sheng Huaian said immediately.
Going to the grassland to kill the enemy on your own is better than defending the city and killing the enemy.
With a killing system, he can only become stronger quickly by killing in war.
Therefore, he did not refuse this task.
"Oh, tell me, as long as I can do it, I will satisfy you." Yang Ye saw that Sheng Huaian agreed without hesitation, and nodded with a satisfied smile.
"I want more soldiers." Sheng Huaian said.
"Okay, I will give you 500 cavalry and promote you to a military officer. As long as you go to the grassland and cut off the food and grass of the Xiongnu army, it will be fine." Yang Ye said.
Sheng Huaian was stunned. He was promoted again?
A military officer is a thousand men, commanding a thousand people, and an eighth-rank military officer.
"Remember, you only need to attack and harass the Xiongnu troops transporting food and grass. You don't need to do much else." Yang Ye reminded.
"Make sure to complete the task!" Sheng Huaian saluted.
"Go down and rest for two days. I will select 500 elite cavalry and give them to you. Whether you can delay the Xiongnu army's siege depends on you." Yang Ye nodded.
Sheng Huaian didn't expect that he would go to the grassland again just after returning.
