Changzhou has few complex topography, except for the Crouching Tiger Mountain and several other small hills and ravines in the territory, most of them are flat terrain, and more than 100 holy warriors of Ji Ya have turned to a low slope, which is the only way for Changzhou to chase soldiers.

Although the Ma family is known as an iron cavalry, it is just an adjective that shocks the enemy, and although they also have heavy cavalry, they will not put it here to deal with a few thieves. Therefore, the Ma cavalry in Changzhou is still dominated by light cavalry, and it will take more than half a day to catch up.

Watching the five hundred cavalry galloping from a distance, Ji Yaxiu's profound eyesight was also amazing, and she said to the people behind her: "They are here, ready to start!" Sister Ruan commands, and General Chun Yu is the main attack!"

The second general behind him replied, "Yes." ”

Ruan Yu also saw the other party, and directly ordered: "All the arrows are in formation, attack the left flank of the enemy!"

More than 100 cavalry were led by Chun Yu Wuji and rushed towards the other side, and the other party obviously saw this more than 100 cavalry, thinking that it was the team after the Wulong ditch was broken, the leading Ma family disciples did not think how strong these thieves and horses could be in battle, and felt that they should have a chance of winning on their side.

And the holy warrior cavalry is not ready to confront them head-on, after all, there are few people on their side, even if a single combat power is far superior to the other party, hundreds of cavalry will inevitably be injured when they collide together, so these more than 100 cavalry did not gather together, but formed an arrow formation, diagonally attacking the side of the Ma cavalry.

From a bird's-eye view of mid-air, it looks as if a slightly curved arrow has been drawn on the map. Chun Yu Wuji was fierce and unparalleled, and took the lead in attacking the Ma family's troops, tearing the Ma family's cavalry open. Since it was not a frontal charge, the two sides did not fight in a front, but gradually gathered together after the holy warriors broke through the left flank.

In a short period of time, the two armies staggered, the war horses were mixed together, the scimitars and flying blood arrays danced, and the instantaneous impact strengthened the strength of the weapon swing, under the leadership of Chun Yu Wuji, Ruan Yu and Ji Ya, the holy warriors had the upper hand although they were few.

This is exactly what it is: the sand and dust cover the sound of iron hooves, and the blood dances and splashes the killing field. The gallop was facing the fall of the blade, and the horse was lying down with its hooves staggered. The sound of the hundred horsemen was boiling, and the flesh and bones were broken and melted into the soil. Win more with less and other idle things, and destroy the enemy five times as much as a backhand.

The son of the Ma family who led the troops was also unlucky, and he learned from the rout of the garrison in Mabao that Wulonggou might be a master of sword flying, and he also hesitated to pursue, but finally made up his mind to chase and kill a try. Because in addition to those few masters, the overall combat ability of Wulonggou seems to be inferior to the regular army of the Ma family, as long as he does not take the lead in rushing to the front and mixing in the cavalry, the opponent's master may not be able to find himself, as long as he rushes and kills for a while, he will have an explanation for the future when the family is held accountable.

Thinking is very good, but he still underestimated the strength of Wulonggou, if it is really those two thousand miscellaneous soldiers, five hundred cavalry is definitely a big victory, but it is a pity that he met the cavalry of a hundred holy warriors, not only lost the army, but even died in the chaos.

Seeing that the original five hundred cavalry, only a few dozen people were left to flee in a hurry, Ji Ya ordered to stop the pursuit. Although there were more than a hundred holy warriors who were killed, but so many cavalry slashed together, it was inevitable that someone would be injured, this time more than a dozen were injured, and two were seriously injured. Now that the pursuing cavalry has been routed, don't chase it anymore, and there is no strategic point in continuing to fight.

......

When Ji Ya and the others returned to the main army, they found that everyone had stopped in Qinghua County.

Ji Ya came to the place where the leaders were and asked, "Hmm, why did you stop here?"

Geng Chang said: "It's getting late, we are going to camp here. I've been stationed here for a few years and know what's going on around me. Coincidentally, there was a person I wanted to meet with the owner of the village. ”

"Who?"

"The owner of the village knows when he sees it, and he also has something to say to the owner of the village. ”

It didn't take long for someone to bring an old man over, and when he saw that the leaders here were men and women, the old man was very restrained, and he didn't know what to call him, so he knelt on the ground and said cautiously: "Little old man, see you in charge." ”

Ji Ya smiled and said, "The old man doesn't need to be afraid, I heard General Geng say that you have something to tell you?"

When the old man saw that it was a young girl who opened his mouth to ask, he was puzzled but also relieved. He knew that these were all strongmen from Wulonggou, and compared to the imaginary bandit leader with a thick face and a thick face, a little girl was a lot more reassuring.

After a brief introduction, Ji Ya knew what happened, just after Ji Ya went to meet the enemy just now, the people in Wulonggou arrived here, Geng Chang was more familiar with the neighborhood, and knew that this was a good place to camp, it was not early, everyone was not good to continue to hurry, so they waited for Ji Ya and the others to come back.

At this time, Geng Chang had a subordinate who wanted to go home to see, because Geng Chang had been stationed in Qinghua County, so he also recruited some soldiers locally. Although the family members have already died, but their hometown is nearby, this subordinate still wants to go back again, maybe after this westward journey, he will not have the opportunity to return to his hometown.

His subordinates have followed Geng Chang for several years, and Geng Chang also trusts him more, and he does not have too many difficulties, also because in addition to the forces of the Ma family in this area, there is really no one who can pose a threat to the main force of Wulonggou, and it seems that it is correct to defeat the Ma Jiatun soldiers in Zhuma Fort before the migration.

The villagers in his hometown were living very badly and were almost struggling on the verge of death, so he couldn't bear to ask his fellow villagers if there were anyone willing to leave with him? Knowing that he was going to the Yunzhong Military Region to make a living, the people in the village also hesitated, and finally the old village chief stood up and said that it was a death anyway, and it was better to go along, so the whole village also followed.

Knowing a rough idea, Ji Ya asked, "Qinghua County can't survive now?"

The old man smiled bitterly: "Qinghua County doesn't even have an official, and there are no rules, and there is a mess inside and outside the city......

It turned out that after it was occupied by the Holy Virgin Christianity, the local households had already been cleaned up. After the imperial court recovered, although officials were sent to manage it, in the end it was a mess. Two years ago, there were no officials here, and because of the changes in the court, no one paid attention here, and the order of the entire Qinghua County completely collapsed. The yamen also lost its management ability, and the entire county was controlled by a few large families, and the errand officers and soldiers also began to fend for themselves.

When the Ma family arrived some time ago, they restored order for a while, but unfortunately they heard that the imperial court was at war again, and the Ma family had no time to take care of Qinghua County, a broken place with little oil and water, when they transferred the soldiers and horses.

Because there are no officials to manage it, the only way to solve the problem is by force. Their village and neighbouring villages are always robbing them of water for irrigating their fields. In the past, when Geng Chang was there, it was distributed according to the total amount of land on both sides, and the conversion ratio was proportional. Now it is robbery by fighting with weapons, and the village over there has a small noble, whose title is not high but is exempt from tax and service, so they have been drawing Ding for so many years, and they are less than here. So such a situation was formed, counting the teenagers and half-year-olds, there were less than 20 people in their own village who could participate in the fight, and the other party had more than 50 people, so the weapon fight naturally suffered, and for two consecutive years did not grab the slightest water source, so these people either starved to death, or bowed to the neighboring village, and became a tenant farmer for that little Xungui.

Ji Ya lamented that it is not only a Qinghua County, but there are countless such places in the world, the Great Zhou Dynasty is collapsing, the majesty of the imperial court is not there, the princes are fighting in various places, the world is broken, and the people's hearts are also broken......

At this time, Ruan Yu on the side asked: "If this is the case in the countryside, what about the county town?"

The old man smiled bitterly, and did not explain more to her, but told a small story.

Just a few months ago, the man of a family in the city died in battle, and the woman supported her young son by making cooking cakes, and now the son is 14 years old, so he began to carry the burden to sell on the street. Although the hostess was old, she was still thin and beautiful, which attracted the covetousness of the two, and insulted the hostess by forcibly entering the house while her son was going out.

Later, when the son came back, he was not angry, so he went to them with a knife, and attacked the two on the street. After several days of mortuary on the street, I don't know who picked it up. It is rumored that it was taken away by a butcher in the back street and secretly sold. I don't know if the rumors are true or not, but the butcher's business has really been greatly affected.

After the story was told, everyone present frowned, such as Ding Xiaoxiao, Wan Li Zhengxiong and others couldn't help but shudder, fortunately Ai Qing was not here, otherwise she was an ordinary woman, where could she withstand this fright.

Ji Ya secretly said that this small Qinghua County is about to catch up with Huadu, and there are thieves who dare to force their way into private houses to insult women in broad daylight, and there are also people who can carry knives and swords to take revenge on the street and cut down people's lives. And no one has pursued these things afterwards, and the chaos is so terrifying. No wonder they are willing to choose to go together. There is a way that it is difficult to leave their homeland, and if they have a little hope of living, they will still give this group of 'bandits' to run to the northwest to gnaw sand.

Ji Ya first asked the old man to go down to rest, and then looked at Geng Chang: "What do you mean......?"

Geng Chang said: "Back to the lord of the village, after all, I have been stationed in Qinghua County for a while, and I can't do anything else, but I just hope to help some." Even if it's a little selfishness on my part, I want to stay here for two days, and I'll see if there are any people in Qinghua County who are willing to go with us. ”

Ji Ya hadn't said anything yet, and Jian Tu, who was in charge of logistics, said: "General Geng, I know that you have feelings for here, and I can't bear to see the people suffering, but staying for two days will not only disrupt our itinerary, but also face the risk of being hit by the forces in Changzhou. ”

Geng Chang's concern for the people is good, but what Jian Tu said also makes sense, tens of thousands of people move west, everyone must be cautious along the way, and if there is a batch of burdens that they are not familiar with, the journey will definitely be more difficult.

After all, Geng Chang is the one who leads the troops, even if he is worried in his heart, he will choose a suitable result, his proposal is indeed not good for the people of Wulonggou, this village is only one hundred and ten people, if you want to bring it, bring it. But the entire Qinghua County is really powerless.

At this moment, Xiong Ying, who rarely spoke, suddenly said, "Let's make a compromise?"

Everyone looked at the girl, and Xiong Ying said: "Although General Geng's proposal just now is not feasible, something can be done appropriately, such as organizing elite people now, and quietly cleaning up those who have committed the most heinous crimes, so that not only can the people be better, but also can copy some materials to subsidize everyone." As for the migrating people, when we have a foothold in the northwest, we will ask the local brethren in Qinghua County in the army to quietly come back and organize the people who are willing to leave to go west. ”

When everyone heard it, it seemed to be a way, which could not only collect money and food, but also alleviate the bad form of Qinghua County. In fact, what they don't know is that Xiongying is not for this high-sounding reason at all.

In Xiongying's view, Ji Ya is an ideal leader, Chun Yu Wuji, Huangfu Yan, Geng Chang and Ruan Yu are military thinkers, Jian Tu, Ding Xiaoxiao, Liu Ming and Ai Qing are kind civilians, disciples of the Wanli Fighting Male Family, and his eldest brother Xiongyi is a half-grown child, a billet of heroes and heroes. Only they are truly integrated into the 'role', and now whether it is in the eyes of the world or their own positioning, Wulonggou is a bandit, so why not follow the idea of the bandits? Everyone is about to leave the territory of Changzhou, the situation in Qinghua County is chaotic, almost all the people are evil, and there is no strong official force, as a bandit, of course they have to grab a handful.
