Chapter 573 The Uninvited Guest

"However, the effect is really good!"

But seeing the completely crazy elephant, Yuchi Baolin smiled.Damn it, as long as it’s useful, I don’t care about anything else!
In a short period of time, the war elephants began to attack everything around them crazily, and the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty who had caused trouble had already withdrawn from the war elephants with lingering fear.

Rumble!
When she felt the violent shaking from the ground, which was the arrival of reinforcements, Yuchi Baolin looked at the elephant that was about to die with regret.

By this time, most of the hundreds of war elephants had been lost, and the rest were completely mad. Whether they could be calmed down or not depended on Alonashun's ability.

"withdraw!"

After taking a deep look at the overwhelming army in front of him, he knew that the real battle would come next.

And this is just an appetizer!
-
On a mountain ridge about eighty miles away from Aronashun's army, there were five big guns arranged neatly. Yes, they were artillery pieces that had been pulled from the bed.

If you look carefully, there are five identical artillery pieces on the hill three miles away.And the reason why it took a lot of effort to pull this thing weighing several kilograms here is of course not for decoration, but to deal with the opponent's elephant soldiers!

"It belongs to his grandma. This thing is very powerful, but it's just too damn hard to transport."

Shen Zhen patted the cold copper pipe: "I didn't realize it on the ship. If the weight of this thing is not reduced, it can only be used to defend the city. If you take it with you on the road, it will be a burden!"

Wang Xuance didn't listen to his nagging at all, but circled around the cannon with great interest.He had heard his husband talk about this thing a long time ago. According to his words, this thing is the trend of the future battlefield. It is only in the exploratory stage now and its practicality is not very great. But in the future, with the development of productivity and technological innovation, the weight will become heavier. Comes lighter and lighter until one person can easily use it!
But can this thing really be used by one person?
"Don't worry about anything else, just ask if it works. Why is there all this nonsense!"

He doesn't care how he got it, as long as he achieves his goal.

"There is no need to say how powerful it is. The distance of three miles is reached in an instant. If a shell passes by, it will be a road of blood. It will hurt you and die when you touch it. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a sharp weapon of war. If there are enough, That won’t have anything to do with us at all, we’ll just wait to hunt down the defeated troops.”

"The sound was like thunder. It was so loud that those beasts were probably scared out of their wits!"

Ji Xiancheng rolled his eyes at Shen Zhen, who was exchanging compliments, and said angrily: "Don't be careless. Once the beast is frightened, it is the most uncontrollable factor. If you are not careful, Alonashun will be finished, and we will be finished too."

At this time, Wang Xuance took over and said: "So, there is no need for us to confront them head-on. The war elephant he is proud of is his biggest flaw in my opinion. Once the war elephant is not used by him, it may harm him. , then he is just a tiger that has lost its teeth, and there is no need to worry about it at all!”

"And we don't want the losses to be too great. Arona is no match for the clown, and the big eater is our real enemy."

Ji Xiancheng nodded and said: "As long as you have an idea. Although the Wangshe City army is not from the Tang Dynasty, as allies at this time, we still try to reduce casualties as much as possible. This will be of great benefit to our future plans."

At this point, he glanced sideways at this bastard, "You bastard, you've eaten it up and wiped it clean without saying anything." As soon as he recovered, he pulled him to plot against Amelia, saying nice things and saying anything. It's for the Tang Dynasty, but as a brother, how can he not know that this guy is not evil?

How can this bastard be so kind-hearted with his temperament that he can shave off three ounces without oil?

"Cough cough!"

Wang Xuance coughed and pretended to be nonchalant and said, "We are still..."

"report"

"General Qi, Yuchi Baolin is back!"

Everyone was stunned, and Shen Zhen quickly said: "Let him come here quickly!"

After a while, Yuchi Baolin came here, and everyone was shocked when they saw the blood stains on his body!
"What's going on? But you can't win a battle with Alonashun?"

No wonder Wang Xuance was surprised. He had been warned many times not to fight with the enemy unless absolutely necessary. Now that there was a better way, who would be willing to let the soldiers pay the price of their lives to fight the enemy?

"Yes, after we ran a hundred miles, Ji met Aronashun's army. It was estimated that there were nearly one hundred thousand troops, and there were no less than ten thousand soldiers. When the general was about to come back, no one expected that the other side would send hundreds of thousands of troops. A war elephant and thousands of soldiers came to attack us."

"then."

At this point, he lowered his head. To put it bluntly, he still disobeyed military orders and really didn't have the courage to continue talking!

"What is the situation of the battle, how many casualties there are, how many enemies have been killed, you will come here one by one, but you will hide something, and you will be engaged in military law!"

After speaking, he looked at the soldiers and said, "Hurry up and check with those who went with you to verify the battle!"

"promise!"

But at this time, Yuchi Baolin breathed a sigh of relief and told the story of the battle truthfully, not daring to hide anything.Wang Xuance sent someone to verify, both to warn him and to help him.

Whether this matter is a big deal or a small matter, my family is fine. If the news comes back to the Tang Dynasty in the future, impeachment will be inevitable.Violating military orders has always been a sensitive matter and a taboo for kings and courts.

At worst, he will be dismissed, but at worst, his future future will be ruined.

"what?"

However, when Yuchi Baolin finished speaking, both Wang Xuance and Ji Xiancheng, as well as Shen Zhen on the side, were shocked.

"Are you saying that only dozens of people were injured in this battle, and no one was killed? Why the hell did you defeat thousands of enemies, kill thousands, and kill more than half of a hundred war elephants?"

He took a breath, stared at him and said, "Do you know the consequences of lying about military information? If you lie, even sir can't save you."

Yuchi Baolin raised her eyes and said loudly: "But there is one lie. I am willing to follow military law and have no complaints!"

At this moment, the soldiers who went to inquire about other soldiers came back.He whispered in Wang Xuance's ear for a while, and Wang Xuance breathed a sigh of relief.But then he was overjoyed.

"Okay, okay, I didn't expect you to give us a big surprise. Covered by arrows, we took advantage of the slow movement of the war elephant to first destroy its wings, then kill the spear thrower who was the most threatening to the cavalry, and then weaved in and attacked. Its weakness is that the battle elephant will be in disarray."

"Okay, okay. I didn't expect you to give us a big surprise!"

Everyone had smiles on their faces. None of them had ever fought with war elephants. They could only know some of the elephant's weaknesses from other people's inquiries and Jie Xian's reports.

But Jie Xiannasi also had his own plan, which was obviously not complete. However, Xianza Yuchi Baolin had a real fight with the war elephant, and still won the battle with a weak force.

Not only did it give the enemy a disincentive, but it also obtained extremely important information and thoroughly investigated the enemy's true and false situation.

Great work, really great work!
"Yuchi Paulin obeys the order!"

Wang Xuance said seriously. "The general is here!"

"You have made great achievements in this battle. I am temporarily under your command as General Yunhui. You will lead ten thousand troops. When you reach the Western Region, everything will be subject to the general's arrangements!"

"In addition, if you disobey military orders, I will report it truthfully!"

"Do you make sense?"

Yuchi Baolin glanced at Wang Xuance and said gratefully: "I have no objections, general!"

He knew that it would be the stupidest decision to hide the matter for him at this time. With so many people on the battlefield, it was impossible to hide it.It's okay to report the truth truthfully. It's not like he lost the battle. He has actual military achievements at the bottom. Even if he settles the score with him, the merits and demerits will be equal to each other at most.

But if he dares to conceal it and refuse to report it, once it is found out, it will be a crime of lying about military merit. By then, even Ji Song's current status may not be able to protect him.

"Well, you go down to rest for now, and pass on your experience of this battle as soon as possible. When the enemy arrives, you will be the vanguard."

"The final general honors your order!"

There was nothing to say at this time. He didn't think there was anything wrong with Pioneer at all. Having seen the quality of Alona Shun, he simply regarded it as a way to achieve success!

Seeing Yuchi Baolin go down, Wang Xuance and others looked at each other, and they all saw the smile in each other's eyes, as well as the calmness and ease of relief!

That's right, if there was a [-]% chance of winning before, then after Yuchi Baolin's battle, they had an [-]% or even [-]% chance of winning in one battle.

"Send the order and gather all the officers above the captain together and ask Captain Yuchi to pass on his experience to the west. Damn it, I didn't expect that old guy Jiexian to still hide something. Don't let me jump on him next time , otherwise I will have to slap him twice!"

After Shen Zhen finished speaking, his face was ashen. Although they had their own selfish motives, they were actually fighting for them now.This was hidden from them, which made him feel betrayed, which made him extremely unhappy!

"Okay, is there any use in complaining? If you have that time, you might as well think about what to do next."

Wang Xuance frowned. Although he was unhappy with Jiexian's actions, as an envoy to various countries and the young minister of Honglu Temple, he could understand Jiexian.

"Ignore everything else, at least most of what Jiexian said is the truth, so just be satisfied!"

"People who are not of my race must have different minds. Don't you understand this?"

"Although we are allies, our demands are different, which will inevitably cause their doubts. As long as we don't hold back, that's fine. There's no need to be demanding!"

Ji Xiancheng looked at Wang Xuance and nodded with satisfaction, and said with a smile: "After all, he has become a lot calmer. If sir finds out, I'm afraid he will have to drink a few drinks!"

"How can we not grow up!"

Wang Xuance clasped his hands behind his back, looked at the foot of the mountain and said in a daze: "Now the lives of thousands of soldiers are in our hands. If we are not careful, they will die without a burial place. How can we not think carefully about everything?"

He looked up to the north and said worriedly: "I didn't understand why Sir was thinking deeply before, but now I understand what kind of courage he has. The life and death of millions of people in the Western Regions, as well as the lives of hundreds of thousands of elite soldiers of the Tang Dynasty. Life and death!”

Then he stared at the two of them and said: "This battle must be fast. After the fight is over, we will go straight to the Western Region. We cannot let Mr. face it alone."

"As a disciple, I can't share my worries with my teacher. It's my fault!"

Ji Xiancheng nodded and said solemnly: "Yes, brother Qing must have arrived in the Western Region by now, right? And Xue Li. If nothing else happens, my junior brother will probably come too, right?"

They were all brothers who had grown up since childhood. How could he not know the temperaments of the other people?Once they know their husband's situation, they will go there no matter how difficult it is. This is his confidence and his trust in his brother!

"Little Junior Brother?"

Wang Xuance was stunned for a moment, then said thoughtfully: "If I remember correctly, he should be in Mingzhou now, right?"

"If we start by sea, it will probably be much closer, right?"

Ji Xiancheng nodded and said: "It's much closer. From the sea to the south, turn west. If there are no wind and waves on the road, it only takes one and a half months to reach Shendu. Then take a boat to the north. If we go to Tochara like us, It will arrive in March at most.”

Suddenly, Wang Xuance and Ji Xiancheng both looked at each other.

There is only one thought in the two people's minds now, and that is: It can't be such a coincidence, right?

"It's possible, and it's very likely."

Wang Xuance walked back and forth a few steps and said in a deep voice: "If it's true, I'm afraid it won't be long before we receive a message from the Navy!"

"Look at this crow's mouth. If this really comes, we will have to suffer a lot. If this happens, will the member of my junior brother's family not dare to risk our lives?"

Thinking of that little junior sister, they had a headache. Only those who have been in contact with Wu Mei know how terrifying this person is.With such deep scheming and far-reaching ideas, if it were a man, all of them would probably be crushed!
"Okay, it's useless to think too much. Let's pay attention to what's happening on the sea. The most important thing for us now is to finish this battle, otherwise everything will stop!"

"Not bad!"

Mr. Ji gave a bitter smile and said, "I hope we think too much!"

But they can't help but think about it. Their junior brother seems to be honest and calm, but only they know that this is not a fuel-efficient lamp. How honest do you expect him to be who dares to use a knife in the East Palace?

And because of his arrogance, he said it was rain. In order to test the wooden bird, this kid actually went up and flew around in the sky without telling his family.When this happened, my wife was so frightened that she fainted.

And his wife is not a good person either. What can't the two of them do together?
And it is indeed convenient from the sea. With Ji's name, the sea area east of the strait will be unobstructed, and maybe there will be fleet escort.

Even if you enter the Shendu sea area, there will be a Nanhai Navy fleet to respond. It can be said that there is no danger at all before embarking on the Shendu sea!
But no matter what, they were just guessing. They didn’t know the facts, so they could only put aside their worries and start discussing the next battle.
Sometimes things in the world are like this, good things don't work but bad things do.The more you talk about it and think about it, the more likely it is to happen.

Just as they were discussing the war, the naval base thousands of miles away and hundreds of miles away ushered in a fleet of five large merchant ships.As a general stationed here, Zhang Zhang is eagerly watching.

I saw five shabby-looking boats approaching slowly, with many big holes in their sails. Those who didn't know thought they had suffered a narrow escape from the storm at sea.

But Zhang Zhang, who knew the details, twitched the corner of his mouth. He had seen people seeking death in his life, but he had never seen anyone seeking death like this.This kid didn't dare to do anything else along the way, and he did a lot of pretending to be a fat sheep for fishing.

But when his mother encountered something, she hid far away and let the people on the other four ships take action.Never take action until the moment of crisis.Why does he get more and more awkward with this temperament?

When have you seen it before?
