Chapter 104 Dawn
A gust of night wind blew, and Wang Wenzuo tightened his cloak. The air was filled with the smell of soil and leaves. Not far from the fire, a soldier knelt on the ground, clasped his hands, and silently recited scriptures.To be honest, he doesn't hate this feeling, it can make him forget about the war for a while, and give his heart a moment of peace.

Wang Wenzuo now finally understands why both Tang and Baekje warriors believe in Buddhism so much: what every warrior who faces life and death fears most is not death, but nothingness after death. After all, land, beauty, wealth, and power have nothing to the dead. significance.The gorgeous sculptures and patterns in Buddhist temples, the scent of dyed incense, monks in cassocks chanting scriptures, and solemn and sacred ceremonies all tell believers that there is a better and happier world outside this cruel world. There may be many difficulties in reaching the eternal world on the other side, but compared to complete nothingness, this kind of hope is so precious.

"It's a pity that I don't have such a blessing!" Wang Wenzuo sighed. Atheism has already soaked into his bones. In his eyes, who have seen modern civilization, those sculptures, fragrances, temples, scriptures, and rituals are just clumsy An obsolete trick, which is a blessing and a curse.

He will not be deceived by others, but he cannot deceive himself either. He can only open his eyes wide and face the cruel reality until death comes and is enveloped by eternal nothingness.

The sound of horseshoes pulled Wang Wenzuo back from his thoughts. He raised his head and saw the messenger running towards him, panting, until he was stopped by the sentry.

"Let him come here!" Wang Wenzuo stood up, sat on the tree stump, and put the saber on his knees. The messenger knelt down on one knee four or five steps in front of Wang Wenzuo, and said in a deep voice, "Join the army, and the commander-in-chief will let you go!" The villain sends a message that the army has arrived in Sibi City!"

"I know!" Wang Wenzuo breathed a sigh of relief. This is good news, which means that his post-break mission has been completed, and the rest is to find a way to keep himself alive.I can completely remove the most critical torsion fiber group and automatic loading mechanism of the "Scorpion", burn all the rest of the luggage, and then march at full speed to get rid of the pursuers.

"Go and change a good horse, return to Sibi City immediately, report back to the Protectorate, and tell me everything is normal here, if there is no accident, you can return to Sibi City in two days at the latest!"

"Yes!"

After the messenger left, Wang Wenzuo let out a long breath, and he decided to take a nap first, after all, there was still some time before dawn, enough to sleep back into the cage.Wrapping his cloak tightly, he lay down on the ground warmed by the fire, and soon fell asleep—until he was awakened by the deafening sound of a horn in the dark.

"Join the army, join the army!" Someone shook Wang Wenzuo's shoulder vigorously: "The enemy, the enemy is approaching!"

Wang Wenzuo sat up feebly, lifted his cloak, and the horn sounded through the night sky wildly and hurriedly, as if he was shouting: "Hurry up, hurry up, hurry up."He heard people shouting, spears clashing, horses neighing, but luckily there was no fighting.

"Damn it, didn't Wang Xiaoxian say that the enemy would catch up to us tomorrow night at the earliest? Where is that bastard?"

"I don't know!" Cui Hongdu's face was also very ugly: "According to Tanqi, he is fighting the enemy's forward!"

"Damn it! He's my cavalry general, not a striker. The person who needs him to catch him now is not going to swing a knife and pull a bow!" Wang Wenzuo cursed: "Hongdu, go to the cavalry team and kill those guys Hold on to me!"

"Your subordinate obeys orders!" Cui Hongdu was taken aback for a moment, then he was overjoyed, sang to Wang Wenzuo and left quickly.Wang Wenzuo then shouted: "Jun Yan, you replace Cui Hongdu as my lieutenant general. Don't let everyone else be in a daze here. Go to your own troops and get dressed!"

"Yes!"

"As ordered!"

The officers dispersed, and Wang Wenzuo began to wear armor with the help of Sancho. As a soldier Cao joined the army, the armor Wang Wenzuo was wearing was of course the best in the arsenal—a forged leather coat outside two layers of cooked cowhide tanned thick leather. The nail leaves are strong enough to withstand the cutting and slashing of swords and most of the arrows. The vital parts are polished with very bright bronze heart mirrors, the thighs are protected by skirt armor, and the helmet takes into account both vision and protection.But no matter how good the armor is, it can't protect the defeated general, Wang Wenzuo couldn't help showing a wry smile.

Sanqiu fastened the last tie, and Wang Wenzuo jumped on the horse. He felt that he might weigh a thousand catties.I'm so sorry, old man, if I win this time, I'll give you twenty eggs!He stroked the mane of his mount, thinking to himself.

"Blow the horn and order the formations!"

As the fog in the air was evaporated by the morning light, Wang Wenzuo could clearly see the formation of his own army.Under the command of the Chinese army, the carts crossed the road, forming a simple barrier. Behind the barrier were three rows of foot archers, busy adjusting their bowstrings. Use a wooden stick to cross the land in front of the archers' feet, leaving a shallow ditch, and pour kerosene into the ditch. Once the enemy approaches, the archers can easily light the rags tied to the head of the arrow and launch rockets. .

Behind the archers are rows of infantry with spears, two-handed axes, and flails. The cavalry is behind the right end of the chariot wall, while the left end is composed of [-] infantry. Wang Wenzuo intends to let the enemy attack this side, and then these The infantry would fall back towards the chariots, luring the enemy into revealing their flanks and knocking them out with the "scorpions".

The people of Baekje came a little later than Wang Wenzuo expected. It was not until the sky was completely bright that Wang Xiaoxian returned to the main formation with more than [-] riders. The disgraced him was miraculously uninjured. Wang Wenzuo was too lazy to reprimand him: "Lieutenant Wang, because you are not here, I have already ordered someone to command your cavalry team. Now you stay by my side and listen to my orders!" Shouted, "Drums!"

The sound of the drum rumbled directly under the skin of the person, making the whole body twitch.A line of Baekje people emerged from the horizon, marching forward in a uniform manner.Wang Wenzuo took a deep breath, secretly glad that he had ordered the drums to be played, even a real warrior would subconsciously be nervous in the face of such a battle, even a very skilled martial artist would not be able to use up to [-]%, but the sound of the drums can make people forget Fear, show your true strength.

"The left wing of the Tang people is very weak!" Fuyu Zhongsheng stood on the top of the hill, flying the flag above his head. He keenly found the weakness of the enemy's formation, but this did not make him particularly happy. What he said to himself echoed in his ears: "The continuous crossbows of the Tang people are very terrifying. If the enemy has already formed a chariot formation, it is better not to confront them!" Hit the Tang people by surprise, but didn't want to rush to the sky, and it was not successful.

 I saw someone in the discussion area say that the official family only had the title of emperor in the Song Dynasty. In fact, this title has been around since the Three Kingdoms, Wei and Jin Dynasties. In the Three Kingdoms Jiang Ji's Theory of Ten Thousand Chances, it is said: Three emperors govern the world, five emperors belong to the world, and three emperors belong to the world. The five virtues, so it is called the official family. "Book of Jin·Shi Jilong Zaiji": "It's hard to call the official family, I want to do something arrogant, do you follow me?" The official family here refers to the emperor.

  As for someone saying that there will be fewer chapters after they are put on the shelves, this book friend can go and have a look for himself. They are all [-] words per chapter, and they are updated twice a day.This should be a psychological effect.Incidentally, everything about online articles is closely related to the author's rewards. According to Weber, the results of this book are very bad.
