Chapter 1259: Carrying on the Past and Forging Ahead (149).

Zhongfu is located at the foot of Zhongtiao Mountain, by the mountains and rivers, a winding ravine around the Zhongfu circled for a week, obviously, this ravine is formed by artificial diversion, those ravines are large or small bluestone, pebbles are obviously moved from other places according to a certain plan to put in, which makes this ravine full of fun, above the ravine, a stone bridge made of white stone leads directly to the gate of Zhongfu, standing on Zhongtiao Mountain, looking at the Zhongfu under the mountain, Wang Qiang couldn't help but gasp, "General, This is a fucking military fortress, as long as there are enough defenders and sufficient equipment, if you want to knock him down, I'm afraid you can only rely on human lives. ”

"So we have to think of ways to transfer the soldiers of the Zhong Mansion away." Niu Teng said lightly: "According to our intelligence, there are more than 500 soldiers in the Zhong Mansion, and this time, Zhong Kui transferred all these 500 people!" ”

"So, isn't the Zhong Mansion just an empty shelf now?" Wang Qiang became excited.

"That's not true, in addition to the family soldiers, when Zhongli left his job, some of his henchmen came back with him, although these people are not many in number, they are all very strong!" Niu Tengdao.

"No matter how strong you are, as long as you have a limited number of people, you won't be an obstacle." Wang Qiang sneered, "A general without soldiers is a tiger without minions, and it is basically useless except for angry roars." ”

"That's a good thing to say!" Niu Teng laughed. "When night falls, the offensive begins."

"The gate is closed, the courtyard wall is three meters high, although the number of defenders is basically insufficient, but it is not easy to fight, on top of those arrow towers, as long as a few archers are arranged, our casualties will not be small." Wang Qiang exhaled, "General, I'm on the first wave." ”

"Okay, we have a thousand well-trained soldiers. The opponent basically doesn't have much defense now, and we can enter it with dignity. Niu Teng smiled and said: "If it's not necessary, let's not use the manpower of the National Security Bureau, the weapons they brought are also a bit appalling to our soldiers, don't scare them." ”

Wang Qiang turned his head to look at the other side, more than a dozen black-clothed people loomed in the dense forest a little farther away, even if they were all their own people, they seemed to be vigilant enough.

The sun is setting in the west. As time passed, more than a thousand hidden soldiers on Nakajo Mountain also began to get nervous, and under the leadership of the officer, they began to organize their weapons.

The lanterns on the wall of the Zhongfu Courtyard began to light up one after another, one every five meters or so, illuminating the entire courtyard wall and the place more than ten meters away from the wall, and on the stone bridge, a lamp was also placed on each pile. At this time, it was all lit up.

These lamps have obviously undergone some special techniques to make their light source basically only shine outward, although the lamps are installed on the courtyard wall, but the outside looks bright. But the entire Zhong Mansion was plunged into darkness, and these lights completely outlined the outline of the entire Zhong Mansion.

"Let's get moving." Niu Teng ordered.

Inside the Bell House. In the darkness, it was very bright above a tall building, and Zhongli stood in front of the window. Staring into the darkness in the distance, behind him, his other two sons, Zhong Qiao, Zhong Huai, all dressed in armor, stood solemnly behind him.

"Father, do you really think that those bandits beating the Lu family is fake, and it is true that they beat us? But the news that the eldest brother came back today is that there are thousands of bandits in Xialiang Town, where should their main force be! The second Zhong Qiao asked a little puzzled.

Zhongli shook his head: "Don't you think that this time the bandits are very different from last year's wave?" He turned around, looked at his two sons, and said: "From their first battle to capture the Lengshuigou military village, and then disguised themselves, defrauded Ziyang County, and killed Guo Qing, they immediately abandoned the county seat. ”

"What's the problem? Or maybe these bandits suffered a big loss last year, and this year they have learned from the pain and become even more cunning. The third Zhong Huai said.

"You have never been in the army, I don't know the difference here, I see the shadow of the regular army in this bandit, and these are obviously not the things that some bandits who have never received any formal military training can do." Zhongli sighed, a sad look on his face.

"What is my father worried about? If their target is us, as you expected, then this time, we will make them disgraced, and let Zhou Liang's useless thing see how we fight. ”

"What worries me is that the Han State has already intervened in this Shu County Rebellion, which is what they did in the Qi State back then." Zhongli stroked his long beard.

In the darkness in the distance, a little firelight suddenly flashed, and then the firelight spread out like flowing water, and in an instant, it was connected into a piece, and the firelight quickly rushed from the direction of Zhongtiao Mountain towards the side of Zhongjiafu, and the tsunami-like shouts of the mountains also sounded immediately, and under the firelight, a team of people dressed as Qin soldiers appeared.

"Sure enough, it's them." Zhong Qiao exclaimed, "Father, how did you accurately judge whether they beat Liang Zhen or not, and whether they beat us or not?" ”

Zhongli's brows furrowed even tighter, and it could be seen that his worries were a little heavier than before.

"Father, we have been prepared and prepared for it, why don't you look happy at all? The elite of the bandits really came to our side, this time, even if they can't annihilate them all, they can still lose their troops and lose their vitality, and Ziyang County can live a peaceful life for a few years. ”

Zhong Li sighed, "Sure enough, I can come to this judgment based on the fact that the Han people have already intervened in the rebellion of Shu County, although I am a high-ranking lord in Daqin, but in Ziyang, how many people know my former position and influence in the court, are these bandits in Ziyang County?" Of course not, the one who knows me best is naturally my enemy, the past Supervision Yuan of the Han Kingdom, and the current National Security Bureau, since they have intervened, this time the rebellion in Shu County may not end so easily. In Ziyang, the Lu family's name and wealth seem to be stronger than our Zhong family, but this is just the appearance, ordinary bandits will indeed target the Lu family, but the people of the Han State Security Bureau will definitely target me, since I guessed that the Han people have intervened in the rebellion in Shu County, I can naturally judge that they must be a false shot in Xialiang Town, and the thousands of people there are just those farmers who have recently been involved in the association, and their main elite, the core force, must have arrived here. ”

Zhong Qiao choked and pulled out the long knife on his waist: "It doesn't matter who he is, since he is here, let them come and go this time, father, you sit here and watch how your sons kill the enemy." ”

The two brothers saluted Zhongli in unison, turned around and strode out the door, and the stairs rattled with a tom sound, and the two of them were already hurrying downstairs.

Zhongli sat down slowly, looked through the window, looked at the rapidly approaching firelight in the distance, and sighed: "The people's hearts are insufficient, if it weren't for your lack of greed, how could Ziyang have a riot again, and how could these bandits have the opportunity to riot again!" ”

Wang Qiang held a gun in one hand and a shield in the other, striding at the front of the team, the ravine was more than a foot wide, but the water was very shallow, and when he stepped into the cool stream, Wang Qiang raised his arms and shouted: "Brothers, rush, demolish the houses of these corrupt officials and corrupt officials." ”

"Kill!" Thousands of soldiers, holding shields and spears, rushed after Wang Qiang with a roar.

In the arrow tower above the courtyard wall, Zhong Qiao sneered and raised the long knife in his hand, looked at the bandits who were already involved in the ravine, and said coldly: "Prepare, shoot." ”

With his order, there was a shout from the originally silent and uninhabited courtyard wall, and suddenly countless figures appeared, everyone held a strong bow in their hands, and the sound of arrows was terrible, whistling from the courtyard wall, and above several arrow towers, the whistling sound of the bed crossbow was breathtaking, and it rushed towards the dense crowd in the ravine like lightning.

The screams overpowered the screams in an instant, and the unsuspecting attackers fell in a dense rain of arrows. Wang Qiang has been on the battlefield for a long time, and the moment the sound of arrows sounded, a huge sense of danger hit his heart, at that moment, he squatted down suddenly, his body curled up into a ball, completely shrunk behind the shield, only to hear the tinkling of beads, and the vibration of his hand came, making his whole arm a little numb at this time.

Looking back, I couldn't help but be shocked and angry, in this short moment, too many of my own brothers had fallen in the ravine, and under the reflection of the firelight, the originally clear stream had already turned red.

In the rear of the attacker, when the sound of dense arrows sounded, Niu Teng's face changed greatly, and he rushed forward a few steps, staring at the still dark Zhong Mansion, and muttered: "Oops, fooled, Zhongli, this old fox, has set a trap for us to drill." ”

Because of the reflection of those lights, Niu Teng couldn't see the scene behind the lights, but from the density, accuracy, and strength of these feather arrows, he could already tell that this was by no means the manpower that Zhong Li had gathered in a hurry, but that their family soldiers had not left at all, so the people Zhong Kui took away were undoubtedly a cover.

"General, it seems that we still have to go up." Behind Niu Teng, a man in black walked up and said in a low voice.

"Of course, it's a shame that the boss sent you, otherwise I'd just run away with my tail between my legs today." Niu Tengdao.

"General, since this is a trap, will Zhou Liang turn around and attack us?" A man in black asked as he opened the box and sorted out its contents.

"No, thousands of people are besieging Xialiang Town, if they don't save it, it won't be difficult for him to break it, Lu Dafang's home, Zhou Liang can't afford to provoke it, so they must still be in Xialiang Town now." We still have time. Niu Teng took a deep breath, "Let's break through in your place, open this damn wall, and let's drown them with people." Niu Teng pulled out his knife, and behind him, there were dozens of his cronies, all of whom were good at the National Security Bureau who had infiltrated from the Han Kingdom. (To be continued......)
