Xi Bin was talking to Jing Lin and Lu Qian, the two deputy generals, in the car, and listened to the cheers outside the ox cart.
Jing Lin and Lu Qian were afraid that he would be affected by the wind, so they couldn't stop persuading him, but Xi Bin knew that people's hearts were important at the moment, and besides, he also wanted to see with his own eyes how much capital he had left, so he insisted on going out.
The two lieutenants had no choice but to wrap him heavily in a futon, wrapped like a silkworm baby, and then Jing Lin, Lu Qian, and his personal guards Ah Qiu and Zai Qiu brothers carefully carried him out.
As soon as Xi Binfu appeared, the cheers stopped abruptly, and the soldiers who surrounded the ox cart quieted down, all eyes were on him, and after a moment of silence, all the soldiers knelt on one knee in unison, gave him the most solemn military salute, and shouted loudly: "See Gongzi" Xi Bin looked around, and according to the military knowledge he had mastered from Qingji, he made a visual inspection, and estimated that there were more than 2,000 people with him.
When Qingji sent troops, there were 15,000 people, and Xi Bin felt miserable when he saw it.
Jing Lin saw the expression on his face, and whispered on the side: "Childe, our warship was surrounded by Ji Guang's boat division, and Childe was unconscious at that time, so in a hurry, we had to take Childe ashore and escape, and even the sergeants didn't have time to take all of them out."
However, it was night at that time, Ji Guang could not completely annihilate our army, I believe that most of the people and horses escaped, but they were scattered for a while, and when they knew the news that Gongzi was still alive, they would definitely come to meet them. ” Xi Bin nodded silently, he knew that the defeat of this remnant army needed to be maintained by him, and what he wanted to give these people was confidence and courage, not sadness.
If the lord of an army is depressed, it will have an amplifying effect in the eyes of the soldiers, and the morale of the army will be scattered, then the big thing will be done.
Speaking of which, the original Xi Bin was just a crew of drama, and he may not have this kind of commander's experience, but he has completely integrated Qingji's memory and knowledge, relying on the insights of later generations and Qingji's knowledge, he can naturally be more appropriate for dealing with people.
He ordered his soldiers to stand and looked at the army of his own, a smile on his face.
Some of the soldiers have no weapons, some have no armor, they say that they are armies, and their current equipment is not much stronger than that of a group of bandits, but their spirit is definitely the kind of military appearance that has been in a hundred battles.
Xi Bin was secretly relieved: "The morale of the military is still available, this is the most important thing" He snuggled in Jing Lin's arms, raised his voice and said, "Brothers, don't be discouraged.
This battle is not a crime of war.
Ji Guang villain, seeking the country and seeking people, they only know the tricks of assassins, if the two armies are really facing each other, how can it be that the opponent of my hundred battles will not die to me today, and it is he Ji Guang who should cry" Xi Bin's voice was not high, he said a word, Jing Lin and Lu Qian repeated a sentence to the soldiers, Xi Bin did some ideological mobilization work, and finally said: "Since Qingji is not dead, he will definitely be able to lead everyone to make a comeback and recover the Wu Kingdom."
Jing Lin and Lu Qian took the lead and shouted: "God bless Qingji, God bless Qingji" Xi Bin's words were sonorous and powerful, which naturally boosted morale.
After saying this, Xi Bin gasped a little, he motioned for Jing Lin and the others to help him sit down, and asked in a low voice, "Where are we now?"
Jing Lin and Lu Qian both knelt beside him, and Jing Lin replied in a low voice: "Childe, we have now passed the Tengyi of Lu State, and we should have returned to Weiguo by way, but Gongzi's injuries are too serious, and we are worried that there will be accidents after a long journey, so we want to go to Qufu, the capital of Lu State, and ask a famous doctor there to treat Gongzi's injuries." ” Xi Bin thought about his more than 2,000 soldiers, and shook his head slightly: "Are we defeated so badly, why have many people even lost their weapons and armor?"
Lu Qian's face turned red and he was a little embarrassed: "Childe, it's not because of defeat.
It's because when we abandoned the boat and landed on shore, we didn't carry much with us.
Now that he is sheltered in the territory of the Lu State, he can't force it, so he has to exchange armor and weapons for food, so" Speaking of this, Jing Lin also lowered his head in embarrassment.
At that time, there were not many standing soldiers in various countries, and in the event of a war, they all recruited people from each household according to the military register, and prepared their own weapons, armor, and food.
Qingji's weapons in this army are well-made, so once they are sold, there is a big market, and the price is not cheap, but there are too many people who can't stand eating, so many soldiers are now disheveled.
Xi Bin was also a little embarrassed when he heard this, and after thinking for a while, he shook his head and said: "This can't be done, there is still a long way to go back to the country."
My wounds have not healed, my march is slow, and if the whole army follows me, I don't know when I will be able to return to the country.
The two of you immediately reorganize the whole army, leave 200 men for me, and you will take the rest of the men and horses with you, and immediately rush back to the city of Ai. ” "What" Jing Lin and Lu Qian were taken aback: "Childe, how can we rest assured that we can leave you, this must not be" Xi Bin said solemnly: "If the country of Lu wants to be unfavorable to me, what do you think I want you to rush back as soon as possible, but I am afraid that these two thousand people will not have food and clothing on the road, Aicheng is our foundation, if we do not return, people's hearts will inevitably be separated, and when we go back, Aicheng will become an empty city."
If we don't lose our foundation, we can make a comeback, and you have a heavy responsibility on your shoulders, which is a top priority. ” He took a breath and said, "Besides, with two thousand soldiers in poor armor, the Lu people looked down on me.
Listen to my orders, you quickly take people back to Aicheng, and I will go to Qufu, while recuperating from my injuries, and on the other hand, I will make friends with the people of Lu State, and maybe I can persuade them to help us. ” The people of this era refer to the ministers rather than the common people, and many of them do not have surnames at all.
Jing Lin and Lu Qian glanced at each other and said in unison, "Okay, then I'll stay with Gongzi and let him go back." ” After the two finished speaking, they glared at each other together.
Xi Bin frowned and said: "You all go back, without you sitting in Aicheng, how can I rest assured that I am now in the territory of Lu State, and I will bring two hundred guards, which is enough to defend myself." ” "Childe" Before Lu Qian could say more, Xi Bin said solemnly: "This is a military order" Jing Lin and Lu Qian hesitated for a moment before reluctantly crossing their hands and saying, "No" Jing Lin suddenly thought of something, and hurriedly said: "Gongzi, when we were in Tengyi, we heard some rumors that Gongzi Baoyu and Zhu Yong are still alive, and they have now fled to Chu State.
Himeko is also searching for their whereabouts. ” Cover up, candle mediocrity Xi Bin was stunned for a moment, and then remembered that these two people were Qingji's own uncle, and they were the same mother as Wu Wangji.
When they attacked Chu, they were in charge of the army with Qingji, and Ji Guang was originally fighting in Chu, he used the strategy of diverting the tiger from the mountain, and after luring Qingji and the two sons to Chu, he returned to China to recuperate under the pretext of being injured, and took the opportunity to murder King Wu and usurp the throne.
With the news of these two people, Xi Bin was overjoyed, these two people had been in charge of the army in Wu for a long time, they were well-known, and they were loyal to his father, Wang Ji.
Ji Guang slaughtered them all over the house, and these two sons and himself were the same enemy.
When the Chu army took the opportunity to counterattack, the three of them broke through in a hurry, thinking that they were dead, but they didn't expect that they were originally going to attack Chu, but in the end, they took refuge in the Chu State to save their lives.
Xi Bin immediately said: "Immediately send someone to the Chu State to find out their whereabouts and take them to Aicheng." ” Jing Lin said: "I heard that Wu Yuan Zixu also sent people to the Chu State to look for them, wanting to cut the grass and eradicate the roots.
The two sons do not know who they are under now, and it may be very difficult to find them. ” "Wu Zixu" Xi Bin sneered, this famous revenge male god in history has always been recorded in the history books as a loyal minister, and now Xi Bin certainly knows what dirty things he has done, Wu Zixu was destroyed by the King of Chu, and fled from Chu to Wu like a lost dog, and it was his father Wu Wang Ji who took him in and gave him an official.
Wu Zixu was anxious to take revenge by using King Wu's troops to attack Chu, but although Wu Wang's subordinates were also fighting against Chu, considering that his strength was not strong enough, he could not do Wu Zixu's request: attack the capital of Chu and destroy the king of Chu.
Because of this, he was ungrateful, and instead threw himself into the ambitious Ji Guangmen, helped Ji Guang with a plan, and recruited assassins to kill Ji Guang.
This person only has one thought of revenge in his heart, as long as revenge is necessary, he can call you a big brother today, and he can kill you with a knife tomorrow.
Xi Bin is now Qingji, with a different position, and of course he has no good impression of him.
He thought for a moment and said, "It's hard to find them, so let them come to me."
Send some people to the state of Chu, disguise themselves as woodcutters and fishermen, and spread the news that this son is in the city of Aicheng, and when they hear the news, they will definitely come to see me. ” "No" Jing Lin and the two replied again.
Xi Bin relaxed his body and said, "Okay, you can choose soldiers now, send some clever ones to Chu State, leave two hundred people to go to Qufu with me, and bring the others back to Aicheng, be sure to keep the foundation." ” Jing Lin and Lu Qian took the order, jumped off the ox cart to clean up the team, and began to select people and horses.
Xi Bin was a little tired, he asked the two brothers, Ah Qiu and Zai Qiu, to carry him back into the car, raised the back of his head, listened to the footsteps of the sergeant queue outside, and thought: "Now that the situation is like this, I, the person who has picked up a life, still have any scruples about making a vigorous fight, when the Red Army was defeated and took Sanwan for reorganization, there were only more than 700 people.
Now how can I say that I also have 2,000 men and horses, and I can't burn the original once with this little spark":
