The enemy's situation is unknown, so if you attack rashly, even if you win, it will be a miserable victory.

If the loss is too great, he, the centurion, may be taken down at any time, and Gurley is most afraid of this result.

Thinking that even if the 3 people in the village wanted to leave, they would not be able to escape in a short while, so he finally gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, retreat, retreat."

Gurley didn't want to lose too much. He didn't want to be deprived of the power of the centurion, so he ordered a retreat.

A whistle sounded, which was the unique communication signal of Mengren.But all the Mengqi who heard the whistle immediately gave up continuing to charge, and also gave up on the opponents in front of them, turning around one by one and driving away quickly.

Mengqi actually withdrew, so resolutely.

Watching this scene, Wang Yi had a look of resentment on his face, and he punched the ground heavily. "Why are you running away, why don't you stay and let us kill a few more, my merit points!"

This cry was so desolate that Wen Yang, who was standing not far in front of him, trembled when he heard it.

Isn't it good that the enemy ran away?

You are even angry that the enemy is running too fast, what do you think, you really think that you are omnipotent, and you don't even look at how many people you brought in.

With only a dozen or so people, the remaining 100 Meng Qi escaped cleanly. This is already a big victory, okay?

Of course, Wen Yang didn't know that just outside Sunshine Village, the black cavalry was ready and could be killed at any time. Otherwise, how do you think Wang Yi has such courage.

"This...hero, I don't know how to call him, but this time you saved our entire Yangxing Village." Wang Yiqiang supported his exhausted body, took off his knife and walked in front of Wang Yi, with a look of gratitude talking.

"Yes, yes, heroes, thanks to you this time, you are gods and Buddhas descended to the world, and you are the Guanshiyin Bodhisattva who saves the suffering." Zhang Qi didn't know when he appeared by Wang Yi's side.At this moment, his body no longer trembled, and his legs no longer trembled.

"We are the vanguard sent by General Zhongwu." Wang Yi stood up, brushed off the dust on his body, and replied seriously.

"General Zhongwu?" Both Wen Yang and Zhang Qi were stunned. Obviously, in their identities, they were wandering outside of Jiayou and had no idea that the imperial court had sent Su Shi to help.

"Yes, General Zhongwu is Su Shi Shaofu. This time His Majesty appointed him as General Zhongwu to be in charge of the war on the northern front." Wang Yi nodded and explained the matter in general.

Wen Yang and Zhang Qi understood what Wang Yi meant, and they said excitedly, "So General Zhongwu has come?"

"Yes, the general has already arrived, and it's just around here. The scene just now must have been seen very clearly. It's just because there are only 200 men in Mengqi, which is too small, so the general didn't show up. But it doesn't matter, I think you will suffer later. Mengqi will call for more reinforcements, and this is the time for the general to come forward with the army."

Listening to Wang Yi's answer, Wen Yang was excited, but Zhang Qi was first excited and then afraid.

General Zhongwu won't see my timid side just now.

Oops, what can be done.

If I knew this was the case, no matter what just now, even if I risked my life, I had to behave well.

Ignoring the change in Zhang Qi's expression, Wen Yang looked at Wang Yi and asked, "General Zhongwu is the Su Shaofu who recruited soldiers to go to Liao and Meng?"

"Exactly. I went there the year before last, and I came back last year. I was terrified when I killed the Liao people and the Mongolian people. I just didn't expect it. Less than a year later, these people have the courage to provoke our Song Dynasty again. This time the general will definitely Give them a good look." When Wang Yi mentioned this, he was very proud.

After hearing this, Wen Yang also agreed very much. "Yes, General Zhongwu is indeed one of the most courageous people in Song Dynasty. If he comes, the northern border will be saved."

Finally seeing hope, Wen Yang thought in his heart, Da Song still did not abandon the northern border, no.

Thinking about it this way, the strength in the whole body can't help but relax, and the whole person suddenly leans back.

Fortunately, Wang Yi's eyes were quick and his hands were quick, so he grabbed him, and then quickly touched him around, and found that although there was a knife wound, it was only a traumatic injury, and he didn't understand why he fainted.

"Our commander is hungry." A frontier soldier saw the doubt in Wang Yi's eyes, stepped forward and explained aloud.

"Hungry?" Wang Yi didn't seem to understand.

"Yes, we are hungry. Our mission is to support Xincheng, and we can only get supplies when we get there. But now that Xinzhou is surrounded by the Mongolian army, we can't get in at all. The commander brought us to Yangzhou. Xingzhai is waiting for an opportunity. But there is not enough supplies, so we can only borrow food from Commander Zhang, one meal a day, and barely starve to death."

The soldier was weeping as he spoke.

In order to protect the people of Song Dynasty, they fought without even having enough to eat.

Originally, infantry was not as powerful as cavalry, and their physical strength was not as good. How could they win battles.

"Is there such a thing?" Wang Yi was incredulous when he heard this, and then looked back at Zhang Qi with a questioning expression on his face.

Wang Yi was a scout of the Su family army, as an elite under Su Shi's command, he never made trouble for food.

Even though they didn't walk with Su Shi when they came out this time, they still brought a lot of food when they left, such as compressed biscuits, beef jerky, ham sausage and so on. They persisted until they met Su Shi.

Wang Yi looked at Zhang Qi, and the latter also explained with a look of embarrassment, "As the brother said just now, their task is to enter Xincheng, and all their relationships have been transferred there. According to military regulations, If they don't enter the city, they won't get any supplies. But when they came to Yangxingzhai, I couldn't watch them starve to death, so I took out the food from our army and divided them in half. That's it, they won't starve to death. , we can’t starve to death.”

"Are you hungry? Can't you eat enough? Aren't there still more than 3 people in the village? Don't they have any food in their hands?" Wang Yi was very puzzled.

"There are definitely some, but what they have in their hands is their own rations, not military rations. How can we snatch them?"

"You can borrow it first. After all, only when you have strength can you fight and win a battle to protect their safety. Don't these people know?" Wang Yi became more and more confused.If the common people don't understand this truth, then he really wants to say that these people deserve to die.

"It's not the people's fault. They sent us food before, but we can't take it. This is a military law and we can't break it. Otherwise, if someone reports it, General Wang Xin will kill us, and our family will also want it." Involved." Zhang Qi explained again.

At this moment, Wang Yi somewhat understood.

But just can't understand.I would rather starve to death than eat the food of the common people, just because I am afraid of violating military laws.

It doesn't matter if you die alone on the battlefield. If you violate the military law, your family will also be implicated after death. Not only will your family not receive any compensation, but your descendants will also be implicated.

This is why, knowing that the people have food in their hands, neither Wen Yang nor Zhang Qi dare to ask for it or eat it.

"What kind of nonsense military law is this?" Wang Yi muttered in a low voice, but he still asked the team members around him to take out the food they brought and let everyone use it first.Then he walked to the side and reported the matter to Su Shi with the walkie-talkie.

"This policy cannot be said to be wrong. General Wang Xin formulated the military regulations because he was worried that someone would rob the people of food. Okay, now is not the time to talk about these things. We are coming to Yangxing Village. We will guard there and try our best. It is possible to mobilize more Mongolian riders, and then wipe them out in one fell swoop. As for their lack of food, you can give them the rations first, and when I arrive, I will naturally not be short of everyone's food."

"Yes, young commander." After Wang Yi agreed, he carefully put the walkie-talkie back on his body.Then he turned around and walked towards Wen Yang and Zhang Qi.

Wen Yang has woken up for a while. After drinking water and eating some beef jerky, his body has a little strength.

But when they learned that this was not their ration, they didn't dare to eat it.Until Wang Yi came over and said: "I have already contacted General Zhongwu. The general said that from now on, you will be under the general's control. These foods are for your supplementary use. Feel free to eat them. The army's food will arrive soon."

"Is this...really?" Wen Yang asked in disbelief.

"Of course it's true. Do I have to lie to you? Besides, the general will be here soon. If you don't believe me, just ask yourself. Now, eat something right away, and more Mongolian riders will come later. If you don't want to continue If you have done meritorious service, then don’t eat, just starve to death.”

"Eat, let's eat. By the way, these things you brought are delicious, delicious." Wen Yang nodded quickly, and then bit the beef jerky in his hand.

But it can be seen that he opened his mouth wide, but only bit down a little.People who are used to hard times know how to save money.

......

Outside Xincheng.

Meng Qi continued to surround him here, as if he was going to surround him to death.

Geli ran back with more than 100 riders, and went straight to a large yurt tent standing outside the city.

The vanguard general Alatan is having a drink with some of his commanders here.As soon as he saw Gurley running in, he laughed and said, "Gurley, you have gained a lot this time."

Hahaha.

The other Mengqi commanders also laughed in agreement.

Yangxing Village can be regarded as a large village, and there are more than 3 people in the Song Dynasty alone. If only these people are brought to Mengdi, there will be many more slaves.

This time, Gurley must have come to repay his credit by running into the big tent.

Under everyone's attention, Geli lowered his head and said, not daring to look at anyone, "General, Geli is incompetent. We did not capture Yangxing Village. We met the elite of the Song Army."
