But the desperate efforts of this horse thief military advisor were effective. He Dachui’s warhorse was stabbed by his sword, and it burst out with unprecedented force and ran away, and actually ran out of the battle. He Dachui tried desperately to rein in the warhorse, but failed, and could only let the tears in his eyes flow freely.
“Brother…” He Dachui knew the meaning of the word “brother” for the first time in his life.
So this is brother!
But when I understood it, there was no brother left!
The front was already Tiegu Pass, which was in sight.
He Dachui, who was still unsettled, suddenly heard someone shouting at the gate: “Open the gate and let him in!”
The thick gate of the gate suddenly opened.
He Dachui’s eyes were still full of tears, and at this moment, the tears had turned red, and blood and tears were flowing!
At this moment, he deeply regretted why he was so selfish!
What future do you want?
A group of brothers who had been living happily with him in the mountains and forests died for him!
The words of the military advisor and the brothers before they died flashed into his mind like thunderbolts.
“Brother… you can expect a wife and children in the future, don’t forget to burn incense for the brothers!”
“Brother, brothers… we all know!”
“Anyway, we are all going to die, so use your life to exchange a golden road for you!… Everyone is happy!”
The words of the three leaders who were shot with arrows before they died: “Brothers, fight for your lives… just for a future for you… Go quickly…”
The roar of the military advisor before he died: “Go~~~~”
He Dachui suddenly roared to the sky and cried crazily.
“Hurry up and enter the pass, if you don’t enter the city, the city gate will be closed!”
Someone urged loudly after closing it!
At this moment, the gate of Tiegu Pass is not easily opened. If it weren’t for this group of wolf bandits who broke into the battle and laid the foundation for the victory of the Iron Cavalry, it would not be easily opened. However, He Dachui was reluctant to enter the pass, and the people inside the pass were naturally anxious. They didn’t know that delay would lead to changes. What if there were any unexpected variables!
However, He Dachui still did not enter the pass despite the repeated urging from the other end, but suddenly turned his horse’s head and shouted: “Brothers, in the underworld, we are still wolf bandits! Come and go like the wind, gather and disperse at random! I’m coming!”
He actually rushed to the Black Cavalry camp again, and while his two hammers smashed the heads of two cavalrymen, he was stabbed into the body by more than ten spears!
He Dachui was bleeding from all seven orifices, and suddenly he smiled.
I’m here.
“I have never been so happy in my life!”
He Dachui is dead!
All his life, he longed to live in broad daylight, and all his life he hoped to get rid of the name of Wolf Bandit, return to a normal person, become a person of status, and bring honor to his family!
However, when he had seen hope, when hope was right in front of him and within reach, when the guards had already recognized him and let him enter the pass, he gave up, gave up without hesitation!
Entering the pass, he is no longer a Wolf Bandit. From now on, he is an officer! As long as he does not die, he will have a bright future!
But he did not enter after all.
No one knows what he is thinking.
Even more, no one knows what he means by “I have never been so happy in my life…”
Perhaps, he finally understood what a brother is.
Or perhaps, as a Yu Tang man, he finally fought for the country.
But his body was also destroyed in the army of thousands of horses, and no one considered what he said.
The Wolf Bandit was destroyed!
With the death of He Dachui, the battle gradually came to an end, and the duel between the two cavalrymen ended!
Yu Tang Iron Cavalry, with less than 3,000 remaining, won.
Dong Xuan’s 10,000 Black Cavalry, were completely wiped out!
Fu Baoguo stood straight all the time, and no one knew what he was thinking.
Only Fu Baoguo himself knew that he suddenly realized something in the moment just now!
“I know, I know how to deal with Han Shanhe. This method, even if it can’t establish a victory, but at least it can delay for a while! Hold on until the Lord Jiuzun comes to help!”
Fu Baoguo said: “We must find the body of the wolf bandit leader and bury him with military honors!”
“This person has made great contributions to this battle and should not be buried!”
Fu Baoguo said.
Great contribution?
Everyone felt puzzled. In everyone’s eyes, this group of wolf bandits is a group of fools, purely here to die!
How could there be such a great contribution?
Could it be that… the Marshal was talking about them using their lives to disrupt the Black Cavalry formation? And thus they had made a great contribution?
If that’s the case… it seems to make sense… but…
Fu Baoguo turned around and walked back, completely ignoring the chatter of the generals around him, because at this moment, he felt as clear-headed as if he had been enlightened.
“After being a marshal for so many years, I have made my brain rigid!” Fu Baoguo thought silently in his heart: “It was this wolf bandit… who reminded me with one sentence!”
“Come and go like the wind, gather and disperse unpredictably! Crowd up, rush and disperse!”
Fu Baoguo’s eyes became brighter and brighter.
“If we use the strict discipline of the Iron Cavalry and adopt the rogue fighting style of the wolf bandits, we can fully exert a very terrifying combat power effect… Well, it needs further improvement…”
“Gather the generals to discuss military information!”
“Yes!”
Four days later, the million-strong army of Hanshan River finally arrived late!
Yu Tang soldiers, standing on the top of Tiegu Pass, looked around, and saw that in the distance, there were densely packed military tents, and flags were flying everywhere, all over the mountains and plains!
Even if you use your eyes to the fullest, you can’t see the end at a glance!
There are mountains of people and soldiers, and the camps are like forests!
Dong Xuan’s rear reinforcements arrived, and Ping Ping’s morale was immediately boosted. For a time, the soldiers were strong and powerful; they were full of vigor and showed the posture of defeating Tiegu Pass in one battle and achieving success in one battle.
“Teacher, I have failed your expectations…”
Zhan Ge came to apologize, and the first sentence he said when he arrived at the central army tent was like this.
“Not to mention that victory and defeat are common in the military, let’s talk about your defeat, whether you lose to Tie Zheng or Fu Baoguo, it is not shameful. For you, it is a valuable experience and a good thing. I have never expected that you can defeat those famous generals in one battle. If you really win, it is certainly gratifying, but it may not be a good thing for your future.”
Han Shanhe acted very calmly, as if he had expected such a result, and he slowly comforted him with sincere words.
The reason why the old man Han Shanhe came so slowly was that on the one hand, he had to make preparations to deal with the sudden arrival of Jiuzun. This was the first priority, and he dared not delay or neglect it. On the other hand, it was indeed as he said, to let Zhan Ge take charge and experience it.
He really did not expect that Zhan Ge would defeat Fu Baoguo and occupy Tiegu Pass before his army arrived.
How could the title of the first person of Yu Tang Shaozhuang School be easily obtained? !
Although these words may hurt others, in Han Shanhe’s heart, they are the truth. Facing his beloved disciple, the one who will inherit everything from him in the future, he naturally speaks freely and directly to the root of the matter!
“Zhan Ge, you should know that the three big men of Yu Tang Army, Fang Qiu Leng Fang, are now old, and the two main commanders are Tie Zheng and Fu Baoguo. You are facing Fu Baoguo alone in this battle. It is really a rare experience for you!”
Han Shanhe said solemnly: “Tie Zheng still has weaknesses. Sometimes he relies on his own bravery, and sometimes he is impulsive and reckless. However, Fu Baoguo can really be called a versatile person. He is mature and prudent, and rarely takes risks for luck; however, rarely taking risks does not mean never taking risks. As long as the chances of winning are high enough, he will not hesitate to use surprise troops. The previous 30,000 cavalry raid proved this point!”
“This man can be called a tough opponent.”
Han Shanhe smiled faintly: “But all famous generals in the world have weaknesses, and Fu Baoguo is no exception. Or it should be said that his strengths are also his weaknesses… He is too stable! Sometimes being too stable can also become a weakness that can be exploited!”
Zhan Ge bowed and listened to the teacher’s teachings. At this moment, he suddenly had an impulse and wanted to ask, since all generals in the world have weaknesses, I don’t know what your weakness is? !
Yes, Han Shanhe, the world-recognized first general in this world, what is his weakness?
It seems that no one knows yet, or will it be revealed in this battle? !
…
In the following days, the two sides launched a more fierce battle than before.
Han Shanhe personally dispatched troops and began to attack Tiegu Pass; there were many battles in a row, and the battle situation was extremely tragic. The trend of the attacking and defending sides was obvious. Yu Tang was mainly defensive, and Dong Xuan attacked. The Yu Tang army, which relied on the city, naturally had an advantage. The ratio of casualties on both sides was roughly maintained at four to one, that is, Yu Tang occupied the advantage of terrain, and one person could win four lives of the other side.
But Han Shanhe didn’t care about this. This was within his expectation. Tiegu Pass was a great pass in the world, easy to defend and difficult to attack. With Fu Baoguo’s steady deployment, the current situation was not much of a surprise!
Moreover, their own troops far exceeded Yu Tang by several times. Even with such consumption, they could still afford it. If they continued to attack fiercely, at most ten days, the enemy’s morale would fall to the bottom. In fifteen to twenty days, Tiegu Pass would be broken!
This was Han Shanhe’s confidence. He was sure that his judgment would not be wrong!
Han Shanhe had no intention of using other strategies and tactics from the beginning. He directly launched a strong attack and won by force. This was the most direct and caused the greatest casualties, but it was also the most effective and targeted, especially for someone as stable as Fu Baoguo!
However, as Han Shanhe himself said, all famous generals in the world have weaknesses, and Han Shanhe is no exception!
His weakness may be that he is too confident. He never expected that a person who has already consolidated his character would have such a surprising change!
As the saying goes, a man who has been away for three days will be seen with new eyes, but that’s it!
This time, Han Shanhe mistook Fu Baoguo for someone else. Han Shanhe was shocked to find that he didn’t seem to recognize Fu Baoguo.
Or to be more precise… Fu Baoguo has changed!
