Chapter 756

Zhang Peng woke up.

He was very busy last night, because the army was about to march into a decisive battle tomorrow, and grassroots officers like him had been preparing for more than an hour.In the past, things like this were based on experience, but now they have become the contents of the written regulations in the military.For example, preparing weapons and armor, boosting the morale of the soldiers, etc., waiting for the soldiers to fall asleep, each department will lead the team and the lieutenants to patrol the camp, and they will not return to the camp to sleep until late at night.

The good thing is that Zhang Peng and Lao Liu, as well as their subordinates, are scheduled to be the main striker for the battle against Wanyan Heda tomorrow, so they don't have to be on duty and can sleep soundly.

Zhang Peng was in his early twenties, the age when he wanted to eat and sleep.Before the emergency concentration of the army, he had just married in his hometown in Shandong, and married a young lady from the Wu family who had known him for a long time and who raised horses in Guanqiao Town.

Young couples are newly married, so they naturally have the joy of being newlyweds, and in summer, their clothes are light and thin, and it is common for them to stay on the kang for a day or two.Even after returning to the army in response to the military order, Zhang Peng was always sleepy.

So for him, going to bed late is not a problem, and it is not a problem to fight the next day, but he can't sleep well, and the feeling of being woken up in the middle of the day is too annoying.

Especially at this moment, when I woke up from the gentle country in my dream, my ears were filled with the roar of the rain falling on the tent, and the weeds and firewood under my body were already soaked, and even my back was cold.Zhang Peng was about to curse, but in the next moment, he smelled a tempting smell of meat, and vaguely saw someone shaking a piece of meat in front of him.

Old Liu's voice said: "Try it, how is the craftsmanship?"

Zhang Peng and Lao Liu were old partners, and both of them were sent to Li Ting's command after studying in the military academy.But Zhang Peng became a general, and Lao Liu became Zhang Peng's lieutenant instead.

The relationship between the superior and the superior has changed, but the friendship between the two has not changed. Zhang Peng has always trusted this old man, and he regards him as his elder in his heart, so he immediately opened his mouth and bit him.

He tore off a piece, chewed it twice, and replied vaguely: "This is the meat of Shui Laoya? Well, it smells like blood, and you need to sprinkle salt after roasting, so it doesn't taste good. Besides, when roasting next time, take the meat Put a pot lid on the upper windshield, the smoke will not disperse in a hurry, and the taste will be better."

As soon as the words fell, Lao Liu said triumphantly: "Did I say that? You are all really good at cooking, and you won't make mistakes if you fall asleep."

Several other people in the tent said, "Admiration."

Someone took a few copper coins from his belt and distributed them to others.

While they were laughing and joking, the shouts of the officers outside came through the violent wind and rain: "The enemy is ready to attack! Don't move rashly, don't make noise, and those who disobey the order will be executed!"

Zhang Peng woke up all of a sudden: "Enemy attack? Are you still making fun of me after the enemy attack?"

Old Liu replied: "I heard that Wanyan Heda came here with his troops taking advantage of the wind and rain. It was said just now that the distance from the camp is five miles. Counting the time, it is only two or three hundred paces now."

"Why didn't you call me earlier!" Zhang Peng cursed and jumped up.

"There is an order from above that all ministries are not allowed to move rashly. It should be to attract the enemy to fight. Don't worry, I have ordered the people around us to prepare carefully. You are wearing armor now, and you can fight when you are finished."

Zhang Peng immediately took the armor, put it on quickly, and asked Jue to come up to help end the straps.

Holding the helmet in his hands, he remembered something, and said hastily: "Let everyone hurry up and eat a few bites of dry food. If you have more food in your stomach, you will have more strength."

"I've ordered it, don't worry, I'm eating!" Lao Liu replied relaxedly.

Zhang Peng squinted his eyes and looked around, just in time for a burst of lightning to walk in the air. The light penetrated through the gap in the tent, allowing him to see his companions eating rice balls and scones, and the servant who was putting on his armor was in his mouth. He took a piece of meat.

Old Liu had been in the army longer than Zhang Peng, and he really didn't need to order these trivial matters, so Old Liu would naturally remind the soldiers.Zhang Peng nodded to Lao Liu, hung the short knife on his waist, and held the straight knife in his hand, and opened the tent a little.

The military tents in each capital are scattered, roughly forming a ring around the fire pit.Each of them surrounds the jurisdiction of each ministry in an irregular ring shape.The capital where Zhang Peng is located is close to the southwestern edge of the entire barracks, and it is very likely that he will collide with the enemy attacking at night first.

At this moment, every tent was normal, but the tents were opened one after another, and someone came out against the pouring rain, watching the movements of the surrounding companions through the dim light.

The roar of the rainwater falling on the ground seemed to be louder than before. Zhang Peng could not hear any instructions from the messenger at all, nor could he see the shadow of the messenger. This was the case in every tent, but every tent remained quiet.

In the process of continuous reorganization of the army, experienced veterans can almost all be promoted. These people are the most tenacious backbone of an army, ensuring that the army will not panic at any time.

According to Li Ting, his army was the first among the Jiedu envoys under Guo Ning's command to train grassroots officers. In this regard, Monk Luo and Zhao Jue's troops were far behind.Every general and every lieutenant under the Yinghai Navy Jiedushi has suffered in the military academy. No matter what they have learned, at least they have memorized the drills for dealing with various situations by heart.

Obviously, Marshal Li wanted to bring the enemy close and kill them all at once, so he gave the order not to move rashly.

Then don't move rashly, the whole barracks is very quiet.

Even if the tremors on the ground were getting closer and clearer, even if the roar of footsteps overwhelmed the thunder, thousands of people roared wildly near the camp, like a group of ferocious beasts, about to bite The terrible call, the barracks remained silent.

Zhang Peng turned back to the tent, stretched out his hand and shook the wooden wedge used to fix the corner of the tent twice, and pulled it out of the mud with great force.

This action made Lao Liu's eyes light up, and he whispered to his companions to shake the other wedges looser.Under the strong wind and heavy rain, the tent was less fixed and immediately began to shake. Fortunately, several people worked together to hold it firmly.

In the next instant, the sound of killing was like a tide.

The refusal horses arranged on the edge of the camp were suddenly overturned, and countless people rushed into the camp. The sound of knives and axes hacking on the doors everywhere, and the sound of arrows passing densely in the air suppressed the sound of wind and rain!
Zhang Peng half bent over, exposing his arms outside the tent, keeping his palms pressed down.In fact, in this dark night, the soldiers in the surrounding tents could not see his gestures, but this was clearly required by the drill code, and he did it without compromise.

Two arrows pierced through the tent with a puff, and a soldier in the tent grunted.Then, the dense figures of the enemy suddenly broke through the rain curtain. Someone swung a long knife and cut a hole in the tent, trying to jump into the tent and kill them.

At the same time that this person jumped in, the beep that Zhang Peng had been waiting for all along rang out.It was sent out by the copper whistle, which was very sharp. If it was placed in an open area, it could be heard from miles away.Such gongs were continuously issued, representing Li Ting's order to fight in the Chinese army.

Zhang Peng waved his hand abruptly.

"kill!"

Lao Liu and several companions yelled and exerted their strength together, and lifted up the entire tent that had lost the wedge.The gray-white tarpaulin of the camp fluttered, like a ghost with claws and claws, pressing back on the approaching enemy.Immediately, everyone came forward and stabbed wildly with their knives and guns.

There were at least seven or eight enemies under the tent, screaming continuously.Especially the enemy who just wanted to jump into the tent was stabbed more than a dozen times by two Dinghai soldiers. The blood on his body was sprayed on the cloth, and then washed away by the heavy rain.

"Follow me!" Zhang Peng stepped through the tent without hesitation, stepping forward on the still twitching and struggling body below.

Another bolt of lightning flashed across the sky, leaving a branch in half of the sky, as if tearing apart the thick clouds. The sky seemed to be a little brighter than before, and the clouds in the east faded slightly, showing a little white belly.

Zhang Peng didn't care to look up at the sky, he only saw a group of people roaring and rushing towards him on the road between the camps.

These people have no banners, no queues, and it seems that they don't hear the golden drums that convey orders.Many of them were topless, stepped in the mud with bare feet, and their hair was disheveled like ghosts.They didn't seem to consider properly distributing their physical strength, they just rushed forward frantically.

This is Wanyan Heda's subordinates.They don't look like the masters of the Dajin Kingdom at all, but more like the rebels who came and fell in Hebei, Shandong and other places in the early years.

They marched for twenty miles in this weather, and finally launched a surprise attack in the early morning, which is enough to show their courage.They are really risking their lives, if it is not for the reliability of their sentry cavalry, they will not suffer a big loss!

The tent that Zhang Peng and others set up was right next to the road, so their actions attracted the attention of many enemies. A dozen people were separated from the surging queue and rushed towards Zhang Peng and the others.

Twenty or so people on both sides rammed violently by the side of the road.

People against people, knives against knives, killing sounds against killing sounds, blood and flesh sprayed on the head.

Zhang Peng roared angrily and swung the straight knife in his hand. The straight knife collided with a machete, making a clanging sound, and the huge force of the fit cut knocked a forward enemy back.

Zhang Peng stepped forward, and just about to cut again, he stabbed a long spear sideways.Zhang Peng turned sideways and gave way, and swung his hand horizontally in the direction of the spear's stabbing. He seemed to feel a vibration in his wrist, and hot blood flowed on his arm.

He looked back anxiously, and saw an enemy soldier staggered to the ground screaming, with blood gushing from his shoulder.The spear and the arm attached to the spear also fell to the ground.

"Be careful!" Someone behind him yelled.

Zhang Peng subconsciously crossed the straight knife, supported the back of the knife with his arm and greeted it outward.He was lucky, this time he was blocking another long knife that was coming at him.The blades of the two sides rubbed against each other violently, making a tooth-sore metal interlacing sound.

The rain was too heavy. Although the handle of the knife had been tied with hemp rope beforehand, it was still a little slippery. Zhang Peng felt that he was about to lose his grip.He hurriedly used his shoulders to back away from the enemy, and took two quick steps back, splashing water under his feet.

At the same time, the eyes of the soldiers who roared in warning widened.He looked down and saw that his stomach had been pierced by a short spear.

The one holding the short spear was a very young enemy soldier, probably only in his teens, his face was immature and sickly pale.Holding a short spear piercing through the body, the young man pushed back the dying enemy, and shouted repeatedly: "I killed a bandit soldier! Did you see that? I got consistent money! A bucket of food!"

The shouting stopped suddenly, and half of the boy's head was chopped off by the Dinghai soldier who snatched up from behind.

The soldier shouted and cursed angrily, "If you don't want to be a human, do you have to be the dogs of the Jurchens? You are the bandits!"
