Back to the Qin Dynasty as a prince

[The third shift is over, tomorrow will continue the third shift to compensate book friends]

Under the scorching sun, the grass is also a little yellow.There was no wind during the day, but the grass shook for a while.There is no one living in the wild, the grass grows crazily, and the weeds spread and grow without restraint, growing almost as high as a strong man's waist.

A person's head sticks out and stares at the straw hat, which is extremely inconspicuous in the endless situation.If you get close, you can see the shadow flickering.

A young man dressed as a civilian asked the military leader who was visiting from a distance: "Boss, what do you see?"

The one who was called the boss was a bearded military man, and he turned around and knocked on the young man's forehead: "Talky."

After a while, there was a sound in the grass.Several people dressed as farmers came back, put aside the grass and sat down.One of them said to the young man: "Xiao Jiu, follow the old university well. It's not that easy to be a good soldier."

The corporal leader who had been silent all this time suddenly lowered his head to the ground, closed his eyes, and listened carefully.Long Jiu stood up, turned to the other four people and said, "I didn't hear that."

The young man couldn't help but feel a little frustrated after seeing that the boss didn't find out, "Is our local army and frontier army really that bad?" He stabbed the bronze sword on the ground and stood it up in anger.

The bearded corporal frowned.

Another sergeant quickly patted the young man on the shoulder: "Hurry up and put away your weapons!"

The young man was unmoved.

The bearded sergeant's expression finally sank, and he pulled out the bronze sword, which flashed a blue light, and snapped extremely loudly.The young man covered his right face, which still had bloodshot eyes.

The right half of the young man's face was completely red with bloodshot blood.But the left half is pale with just one swipe.It was a bronze sword, a bronze sword with fronts on both sides.Fortunately, it was shot with the side of the sword.If there was a mistake, the young man would have died here.

The head of the corps said in a deep voice: "Don't think that you can act like a libertine in the army with a few bad money in your family! You don't even cherish your second life!"

The corps leader's corps is the most elite corps of 100 people from the local county, with pioneers for reconnaissance purposes.In later generations this is a scout.He is an absolute elite in the army, and the threshold for entry is absolutely high.

Similarly, such Wu is on duty to perform tasks, and the casualties are also very high.The young man was the last recruit to join this team, and he was called Xiao Jiu, because he was the ninth to join out of the five, and the other four had already been shrouded in horse leather on the battlefield.

And the corps leader is the boss, the veteran who has lived from the first time he joined the corps to the present, a veritable veteran.Being called the boss by the other four people, on the one hand, is the status of the corps leader, and on the other hand, it is pure admiration and obedience.

It can be said that the famous Xiao Jiu was the first to enter this most elite unit because of his connections, so the corporal leader was very disdainful.

Xiao Jiu muttered, stiffened her neck and did not speak.The bearded corporal glanced at him: "You still have a bit of backbone." Then he threw the bronze sword back to Xiao Jiu, and stopped talking.

Another veteran was soft-hearted and patted Xiao Jiu on the shoulder: "Didn't you want to ask the difference between the frontier army and the local army?"

Xiao Jiu nodded fiercely.

The veteran smiled: "What do you think of me and Corporal Chief?"

Xiao Jiu thought for a while, and the man in front of him was also a veteran who had fought many battles. Although the hero crawled out of the pile of bones, he was easy to talk and had a good temper, but it did not mean that he was soft-tempered. Xiao Jiu also trembled thinking about it.Looking at the corporal who was resting with his eyes closed, he felt like a sleeping beast.

Comparing the two, Xiao Jiu said: "I still think Wu Zhang is amazing."

The old soldier was slightly stunned, nodded and boasted: "It's still a bit sharp. How about us Wu in the cavalry army in Shangjun?"

Xiao Jiu puffed out her chest and said proudly: "I can't get out of the top three!"

The veteran said with emotion: "Yes. But our Wubi is not as good as the ordinary brothers in Xianyang. Although the brothers in Xianyang think that they will not lose against the frontier army, they dare not say that they will win."

Xiao Jiu tilted her head, a little confused.

The veteran laughed, and tapped Xiao Jiu on the head: "Our corporal commander was trained by the frontier army."

Xiao Jiu opened his mouth, and finally understood the gap between the local army and the frontier army.There are two big class gaps in the middle, and thinking about the ability of the bearded corporal, he understands how powerful the frontier army is.

In fact, one of the most important reasons for saying that the frontier army is strong is that the frontier army fights frequently.The formation of a strong army must go through many battles.

From the personal point of view of a sergeant, the frontier army has more chances to fight and naturally has more chances to beheaded.Soldiers with strong skills and high means naturally disdain to stay in the comfort zone of Xianyang, let alone go to local bandits to play.

The military merit system implemented by the Qin Dynasty is based on the military merit of beheading the enemy to determine promotion, and it may not be possible to catch up with the bandits several times in ten years in the local area.On the frontier, there may be ten battles a year.Although the danger is much greater in the frontier army, relatively speaking, there are also more machines that decapitate the head.

This is why the frontier army has always been stronger than other armies. Of course, in order to prevent the frontier army from being overwhelmed, every year Xianyang will send elites from the frontier army back to Beijing to defend, and then recruit elites from the capital to supplement the frontier army. Make the empire healthy!The three hundred palace riders led by Fusu were recruited from the border.

It's a pity that Qin Ershi had very limited means to deal with the frontier army, and Zhao Gao couldn't do anything about the two major frontier army systems in the north and the south. At that time, Li Si might have a way, but it's hard to say how much power he has under Zhao Gao's suppression. up.

This has caused the Northern Army to be basically abolished since the death of Meng Tian Fusu. The collapse of the spiritual leader and the struggle at the top have made the situation of the Northern Army into a difficult situation.And the Southern Army was completely taken away by Zhao Tuo, a big traitor, to stand on its own, a naked separatist.

While Xiao Jiu was thinking wildly, there was another commotion in the grass.The five of them are also well-trained fighters, their swords are out of their sheaths, and they are all ready.

A deep and hoarse voice said: "It's me!"

It was Qi Ze who came, and Qi Ze, who was wearing a straw hat on his head, looked at the bearded man: "Captain Qiu."

The one called Chief Qiu was the one with the beard, who hurriedly stood up but was pressed down by Qi Ze: "There is no need to be polite."

There are distinct strata in the army and strict hierarchy.It is only right and proper for subordinates to obey their superiors!So no matter how outstanding Corporal Qiu's military strength is, if he dares to disrespect the Shangguan, the Shangguan can be legally and legally beheaded on the spot at the time of battle.

"Are you sure this is the place that Lishou must pass?" Qi Ze asked.

Chief Qiu nodded, and said calmly: "If it is true that Lishou has obtained information, he will definitely choose this place when retreating."

Ji Ze asked this question three times because it was so critical.Although Fusu gave all 130 people to Qi Zelai, he didn't put his confidence in it.Another route of reconnaissance has been released. I believe that with the best reconnaissance method among the army here, the bandit's lair will definitely be found within two days.

Originally, Qi Ze also thought that he could only try his luck, but after carefully studying the map, Qi Ze changed his mind.Then he found Corporal Qiu again, checked the terrain himself, and finally decided to ambush in the weeds overgrown here.

In fact, this place is not flat land, there are hills on both sides, and there is a path in the middle. To put it bluntly, it is a small ditch between the two breasts.Usually not many people walk.It can be regarded as a shortcut to the county seat that the locals themselves know, and it is barely three horses in parallel.

Based on Qi Ze's conjecture and the judgment of Corporal Qiu, Qi Ze finally decided to ambush here.Moreover, Qi Ze found it very interesting that although this corporal chief Qiu had a low status, even the centurion commander of the local garrison would not dare to make things difficult for him. He was polite and had a high prestige among the grassroots.After some conversation, it turned out that he was transferred back from the Southern Army, and he was a subordinate of Tu Wei before.

Qi Ze muttered to himself: No wonder he is so cold-blooded.

Decided to ambush, it is time to prepare.First of all, you have to be safe, you can't even command your own people, Qi Ze is also a military marquis, he can be regarded as the battalion commander of later generations, at least a major.

Once Corporal Qiu and the centurion were taken care of, the problem would not be a big deal.After looking around one by one, the grass fell into silence again.

The sun was shining brightly, and although it was cool in the grass, it was very easy to make noise when moving. Even experienced fighters could only try to reduce the noise as much as possible, but absolutely couldn't make no sound at all.

So all the people had to endure the insects and ants in the grass, motionless, like statues.

Suddenly Corporal Qiu lay on the ground, listening quietly, and then said in a low voice: "Third brother, send the signal. Brothers, get on your horse. Go into the mountain!" A veteran called Old Three pushed down a tree, and then five People backed away slowly.Hide in the woods and get on your horse.

After receiving the news, Qi Ze and the Thirty Jingqi also got on their horses, but they didn't intend to let the rest of the cavalry get on their horses.There are no saddles in this era, so the thighs are easy to wear out, and few people can withstand cavalry training for injuries.Without stirrups, it is difficult to exert strength immediately.Warhorses without horseshoes are vulnerable to injury.

These three points limit the play and use of the cavalry.Therefore, with 130 people in Qi Ze's hands, only 36 people could really be killed.

He counted one, and the Thirty Palaces counted. In the end, only the most powerful Wu in the local army counted.The rest were more elite infantry who had dismounted.In fact, when the cavalry first appeared, it was used as dismounted infantry. Because of its strong athletic ability, it was put into use.In fact, until the Song Dynasty, the Central Plains Dynasty had never been afraid of cavalry if there was no shortage of horses.The Turks who were extremely powerful and consumed the Sui Dynasty to death, faced the Modao of the Tang Dynasty with only the word fear.

Among the quiet hills, Yiqi suddenly appeared.Immediately, the face was square and exhausted.His body was covered in blood, and he was injured in several places, but fortunately, none of them were critical.

Not far away, more than [-] cavalry followed closely and did not retreat.There are two people in the lead, one is bald and the other is scarred.It was one of the more than four hundred horse thieves, and the horse thieves chased after him cursing, not knowing what to do.
