Chapter 203: The Final Battle of Yangzhou (Part I)
Wang Tieniu gently picked up the little girl, turned around slowly, and a deep voice sounded: "Go to the city to buy a coffin, and restrain yourself!"
Immediately, two sailors left the group and headed for the city.
Wang Tieniu is naturally not a person who is overflowing with sympathy, but today's situation has deeply touched him, perhaps it just evokes some memories in his heart. So he didn't hesitate to pick up the little girl, and now he also has this strength.
Zheng Tai walked over to Wang Tieniu, looking at the gloomy expression on his face, Zheng Tai felt that something was about to happen, so he asked, "What are you going to do?"
"I want to kill!" Wang Tieniu's indifferent voice sounded.
"It's not a good idea. Jung Tae said with a sigh.
"I know!" Wang Tieniu turned his head, glanced at him, and said, "But it's a way to make me feel better!"
Zheng Tai was silent for a moment, then with a little helplessness, he sighed: "Okay! I'll go and prepare!"
When it comes to killing, today's teenagers seem a little too calm, and this change is not good or bad, it only depends on the position of the individual. If you say that you can kill people, you can kill people, and the teenagers are no longer little beggars who are like duckweed and bullied.
Wang Tieniu went back, taking the little girl with him, what should have been seen has been seen, the decision has been made, and his mind has calmed down, although there is a terrifying coldness in his eyes.
Killing people is not a simple matter, just like an article, time, place, and person, these three elements are indispensable.
Wang Tieniu saw the tragedy, so he felt compassion, so he wanted to make his heart feel better, after all, this situation is inseparable from the teenagers.
He couldn't turn back the clock, so he wanted to do something to make himself feel better. I don't want to be at ease, because I can't be at ease, so I just want to make myself feel better.
Zheng Tai's movements were very fast, and more than a dozen scouts were scattered, all over the two sides of the battle, and the major forces.
It didn't take long for the results.
I don't know if it was out of weakness of heart or for some other reason, the seven clans and the five surnames and the maritime merchants of Yangzhou expelled the poor people in the shantytowns day and night, but when the two sides were fighting, they only chose after nightfall.
The next evening, five turtle boats came out together, carrying two hundred sailors, and the manor in the northwest suburbs had long been empty, but in the daytime, nearly 100 men left Yangzhou on Peng Ze's boat.
In this battle, the teenagers did not have any assistance, and there was no master around them, so they could only rely on themselves to face those unknown enemies.
"This time I might be scolded by my eldest brother. Wang Tieniu smiled at Zheng Tai, who was sitting on the side.
"If you don't fight well, you will definitely be scolded!" Zheng Tai nodded and added.
"Hehe, we're not big brothers, we're just young people! It's inevitable to be frivolous once in a while!" Wang Tieniu smirked.
Zheng Tai turned his head and glanced at Wang Tieniu, and also laughed.
The two of them were sitting on the edge of the canal at the moment, on top of a raised mound of earth, the mound was about a foot high, and two hundred sailors were scattered, as if at random, sitting on the ground, but if anyone familiar with the military formation came to see, they could notice that the position of these people was a little exquisite, just stand up, it was a shocking array, a chain of mandarin ducks.
Here, there was no mound, but with the sapper shovel that the eldest brother equipped for them, the teenagers only spent half an hour digging to build this mound. Five turtle boats were moored in the canal behind the mound, and a huge pit with a radius of ten zhang was a hole on the left, from which the earth was dug.
It is located at the corner of the canal, the river is dozens of zhang wide, and within a radius of ten miles, the only bridge is behind the mound and the huge pit, and the only way to cross the bridge is to pass on the narrow path between the two.
This is the battlefield that the teenagers are preparing for today! At this moment, the teenagers are making the final repairs.
After the tea, a team of people came in the distance.
The leader is Ye Kai, and behind him are hundreds of good players of the Zhenhai Gang.
Ye Kai is a master, and he saw this protruding mound of dirt, hundreds of teenagers on the mound, and the huge pit of the black hole.
Ye Kai raised his hand, and the team of the Zhenhai Gang stopped ten zhang away from the mound. Ye Kai quietly looked at the teenagers on the mound, and the teenagers were still doing their own thing.
The field is very quiet, the quiet is unusual, and it is this quiet, cautious Ye Kai did not act rashly.
Ye Kai was a master, and he could see at a glance that the teenagers on the pile did not know martial arts, but they were just a group of ordinary people, but the expression of focusing on wiping the blades in his hands moved him.
Ye Kai was not unknowledgeable and reckless, on the contrary, he saw a lot of things, for example, in the presence of two hundred people, there was not a trace of noise on the mound of dirt opposite, and some were just the softness of silk brushing over the steel blade. For another example, these young teenagers obviously don't know martial arts, but they still exude a powerful aura, which is an aura that can only be felt by equally powerful people.
The two hundred teenagers gave Ye Kai a sense of oppression that only he had when facing thousands of troops at this moment, and the momentum of the teenagers who were not afraid of battle Ye Kai had only seen it in the generals who had been in the past few years. Even those veterans of a hundred battles, although they can also have the courage to face life and death calmly, but in addition to these, the teenagers also have an awe-inspiring momentum, which is self-confidence, calmness, and a majesty on the battlefield, and these often only belong to those generals.
This is a full 200 generals!
This is impossible! Even the oldest generals would never have been able to train such a number of young generals!
It's not a question of money! It's impossible! No, there can be such a large number of generals.
Thousands of troops are easy to get a general is hard to find, what is said is the scarcity of generals, the inheritance of the art of war in this era is all based on the generals' words and deeds, the military book is written concisely, mysterious and mysterious, scholars read a few military books and dare to say that they know the military affairs, the real generals are all tempered in dozens or even hundreds of hard battles, and it is impossible to achieve it overnight.
Moreover, the army is the important weapon of the country, and even those thousand-year-old generals dare not train too many generals, otherwise they will be suspicious of the imperial court, which will lead to the disaster of extermination.
But Xu Chen is different! He studied history, and when he was in school, he read many ancient military books, and it was still the kind of version with the annotations of famous generals of the past dynasties. Coupled with the military thought of Taizu who was amazed by the world in later generations, it is really nothing to write a military school textbook.
As for the suspicion of the emperor...... If what he is doing now really lets the emperor Lao'er know, it is estimated that it will not be enough to destroy the nine clans.
Therefore, Xu Chen's current 300 sailors are the 300 cadets of the military academy he taught, and they are naturally rushing to lead the troops to fight.
These things seem to be a very common thing for these teenagers, just like daily training, which has long become a habit and is deeply imprinted in the bones of the teenagers. However, for outsiders, in such an era where only one scholar can be produced in three generations, these teenagers who are not only literate but also proficient in the art of war are a bit amazing, and even terrifying!
It was with this worry that Ye Kai stopped, as a master at the peak of foundation building, he chose to deal with the teenagers in a peaceful way.
Ye Kai took a few steps forward, clasped his fists and said to Wang Tieniu and Zheng Tai at the top of the mound: "Little brothers, in the lower Ye Kai, the leader of the Yangzhou Zhenhai Gang, this is polite!"
After speaking, he bowed slightly, using a very standard etiquette between the peers of the rivers and lakes.
When Wang Tieniu heard this, he just smiled, did not stand up, still sat on the mound, and replied loudly: "I have heard the name of the big boss Ye for a long time, I don't know why the big boss came here?"
Ye Kai frowned, and seemed to be dissatisfied with Wang Tieniu's posture, but he finally endured it, and was about to speak, but he didn't want one of the brothers behind him to rush out immediately, and scolded loudly at the teenagers on the mound: "Boy, don't you have a shame on your face, right?
After all, not everyone has Ye Kai's knowledge, this big man who rushed out in a hurry has long been a little impatient, and he also has the intention of showing himself in front of the big boss, obviously it's just a group of little hairy children, why do the big bosses talk nonsense with them, just let them get out, if they don't roll, rush up and kill them and it will be over! These things, they have done a lot these days.
"Your knife, hehe, okay, I remembered!" Wang Tieniu looked carefully at the big man and the knife in the other party's hand, and said with a smile.
"You!" The big man was really enraged now! How could it be reasonable for these little boys to dare to ignore him until now!
"Ahhhh......h
Yes, Dahan never thought that he would fail, he began to practice martial arts since he was a child, although he did not build a foundation because of his limited qualifications, but he still practiced a strong body for many years, and he also had a hundred or ten catties of strength in his hands, and he was even more fearless of death when he fought, and now he had dozens of lives on hand, how could such a person be defeated by a bunch of little children? This is impossible! No one will believe it!
"Slow!" The big man leaned forward and was stopped, Ye Kai put a hand on his shoulder, and he couldn't take a step forward.
"We're just here to borrow the way!"
Ye Kai not only said this sentence to Dahan, but also looked at Wang Tieniu on the mound again after speaking.
Wang Tieniu looked at him calmly, stretched out his right hand, his fingers drew a circle in the void, and replied: "This is my land, if I don't let it, no one will be able to cross it!"
"If you want to cross the river, you can go over there, or that way, it's okay!" Wang Tieniu said, pointing his fingers in the left and right directions, and said flatly.
Ye Kai's eyes narrowed, frowned, and a faint anger floated on his forehead, he had already endured it so much, the other party was still strong, even if he was a good-tempered person, he would inevitably be provoked to anger, not to mention that Ye Kai could be regarded as good-tempered now?
"Okay, good! Young people always think that 'Lao Tzu is the biggest in the world' after learning some skills, but you must know that such people often don't live long!" Ye Kai shouted three times, his face was a little gloomy, and the palm on the big man's shoulder was also loosened.
The big man understood, immediately shouted a few times again, raised the steel knife, and rushed towards the mound alone.
Seeing this, the corners of Wang Tieniu's mouth rose slightly, and after only one glance, he lowered his head and continued to wipe the steel knife in his hand, and Zheng Tai beside him only raised his head from the "busy schedule", and said lightly: "One team, five elements array!"
After saying that, he also lowered his head. Then, the five teenagers near the bottom of the mound stood up slowly, without armor or helmets, but one of them grabbed a weapon next to him, took a few steps forward, walked to the bottom of the mound, lined up, and met the enemy.
When Ye Kai saw this scene, his heart moved, and a trace of uneasiness faintly appeared in his heart, but he didn't say anything, just squinted his eyes and observed carefully.
"How can this be reasonable! It is too much to deceive people!" The big man who was running saw that the young men despised him so much, and his heart suddenly became angry, and his pace couldn't help but speed up a little.
There were only a few feet away from the teenagers on the opposite side, and the big man could clearly see the faint fluff on the corners of the teenagers' mouths, but these damn little devils still had a silent look on their faces, and there was even a hint of disdain.
"Ahhh
When the first young man was only a few feet away from him, he took off the black cloth cover at the top of the blade in his hand, and then put on a posture to welcome the arrival of the other party.
"Ahh
Of course, this is just a joke! Although the big man was angry, his heart was still full of confidence, until the moment of the battle.
The boys were still calm, as usual in training, calmly wielding wolf whisks, calmly cutting through the enemy's clothes, calmly hooking the enemy's flesh, calmly turning sideways, calmly raising the steel spear, calmly stabbing the enemy's chest, and finally calmly cutting the aorta on the enemy's thigh with a steel knife.
A qiē is so calm, calm rapid, calm unusual, calm terror.
A big man fell down so calmly.
The young man didn't have any surprises about this, and naturally there would be no boring expressions such as joy and shock on his face, because it was really boring.
He seemed to remember what the third brother said just now, looked down at the big man who fell to the ground and was convulsing, and after a while, he handed the wolf in his hand to a young man behind him, took a few steps forward, lifted the collar of the big man with one hand, picked up the steel knife of the big man with the other, and walked towards the huge pit one zhang away step by step.
Coming to the front of the giant pit, the young man struggled to straighten the already paralyzed big man, put on a kneeling posture, seized the time, raised the knife in his hand, and the cold light flashed, the big man's huge head flew up, fell into the huge pit, rolled on the dirt a few times and then there was no movement, and then, the young man used force on his legs, kicked the body of the big man into the huge pit, and then turned around and left.
When passing the one-foot-wide path, the young man's wrist flicked, and the steel knife that the big man had once plunged into the dirt on the path, like a monument. Then the boy returned to the front of the group, and the four behind him walked back to the mound and sat down again.
It's still the same position, it's still the same expression, it's still the same action. If it weren't for the blood left on the blade, if it weren't for the steel knife stuck upside down in the path, and the corpse of the big man with different heads in the huge pit, it seemed like it was really like just now.
It's just that everyone present knows what happened just now, the teenagers know, and Ye Kai also knows.
This qiē seems to be a long time, but in fact it is only in a moment, from the big man shouting and rushing forward, to being knocked down by the teenagers like lightning, to finally the corpse being kicked into the huge pit, it is really only a moment. Ye Kai didn't react, and the Zhenhai gang behind him didn't react.
After all, the master of building a foundation needs to build a foundation, Hao Dazhi is looking for a good medicine to build a foundation, and Peng Ze is old and difficult to build a foundation, which shows that it is not easy to build a foundation. Therefore, even with the huge financial resources of the Zhenhai Gang, there are only a few people who can build a foundation, and most of the gangsters do not know martial arts, but they are physically stronger. After all, they still belong to the business gang, doing business is the right thing, and only the hundreds of elites selected by Ye Kai have followed him to practice some martial arts since childhood, and the nearly 100 people who came today are all such people.
However, in front of their eyes, a big man who could be regarded as a good hand among them was killed by the other party in only a moment, and this shock made them speechless for a while.
If the scene had been more intense, maybe they wouldn't have been as uncomfortable as they are now, but the calm movements and calm expressions of the teenagers actually made them, the men who licked the blood at the tip of the knife, feel a burst of horror, and a cold from the depths of their souls instantly enveloped these people.
Ye Kai was also shocked, as a master at the pinnacle of foundation building, he could also kill such a big man lightly, but even he couldn't be so calm, it wasn't ordinary killing like hemp, it was a habit! It was a habit like eating and drinking, like walking with which foot first, because of habit so familiar, because of habit so calm, do you get excited when you drink water every day?
Ye Kai was afraid, yes, as a master of foundation building, he was actually afraid at the moment! But Ye Kai did not feel ashamed at all, he was a master, yes, but he was also a businessman, a successful businessman! If calmness is the habit of teenagers, then profit calculation is his habit.
The other party only came out of five people to kill one of their good players so easily, the other party still has two hundred people, and their number is only half of the opponent's, even if there are a few foundation building masters in it, Ye Kai still doesn't think they can defeat the other party lightly, and in order to walk more such a battle of will, it is really not a good deal to give away the already small combat power in the gang in vain!
So, Ye Kai, ready to retreat.
"Are these lands yours?" Ye Kai still asked before leaving.
Wang Tieniu bowed slightly: "That's right!"
Ye Kai also nodded, and then prepared to turn around and leave.
However, at this time, behind him, a strange cry sounded: "Yo! Isn't this Ye Da in charge! Walk in such a hurry, where are you going?"
