Chapter 194: The Unexpected (2)

"PS: I fixed it, but it was delayed."

β€”β€”β€”β€” the following textβ€”β€”β€”β€”

On the second day of the fifth lunar month, Gao Chun, the county lieutenant of Yexian County, Ma Gai of Kunyang County, and Huang Ben, the lieutenant of Runan County, and three county lieutenants gathered officers and soldiers from the three counties to camp on the avenue at the foot of the Black Tiger Village Mountain.

While setting up camp, the three county lieutenants discussed a plan to suppress the thieves in the tent.

During this period, Zhang Jing and his henchman guard Li Ying were listening.

Huang Ben, the county lieutenant of Runan, didn't recognize Zhang Jing, so he asked, "Who is this?" ”

Gao Chun, the county lieutenant of Yexian County, introduced with a smile: "This is the five tiger generals under Taishi Chen, Zhang Jing and General Zhang. ”

The prestige of the Five Tigers of Chenmen was very loud in the Jin Kingdom, and Huang Ben, the captain of Runan, was shocked when he heard it: "The Five Tigers of Chenmen? ”

Seeing this, Gao Chun smiled and said to Ma Gai: "Ma Gai, I'll just say it, this guy must be surprised." ”

Magai smiled reluctantly.

A few days ago, when Gao Chun took Zhang Jing to his Kunyang County to meet him, he was also shocked, just like Huang Ben at this moment.

But he knew that there was a difference between the two of them.

Huang Ben was pleasantly surprised, surprised that he could actually meet the famous Five Tigers of Chenmen, and see Zhang Jing, a general of the dynasty who was about the same age as them, but who could hold tens of thousands of troops, but he was ...... He was more frightened.

The Five Tigers of Chenmen, the five sons of Chen Zhong, the imperial master of the dynasty, are all brave and resourceful fierce generals, most of these generals are responsible for resisting foreign invaders and suppressing rebellions on weekdays, Lu Kuang can actually invite this general of the dynasty to encircle and suppress a group of bandits, Ma Gai can't believe it.

Shocked, Margai's heart was filled with trepidation.

With the participation of Zhang Jing and other figures, the encirclement and suppression of the Black Tiger Village Yang Tong and his gang must be captured, so the question is, if the Black Tiger Village is destroyed and Yang Tong and his gang are cornered, will they be angry with him and publish his confession to the public?

"Maybe I should confess my guilt?" Seeking forgiveness?'

After glancing at Zhang Jing a few times, Ma Gai thought secretly.

At this time, Gao Chun patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile: "What's wrong?" ”

"No, it's fine."

Ma Gai shook his head, barely squeezing out a smile: "I still can't believe that the matter of a thief can ask General Zhang." ”

Gao Chun nodded abruptly.

In view of Zhang Jing's highest status, Huang Ben and Gao Chun originally unanimously implored Zhang Jing to be the chief general, but Zhang Jing waved his hand and resigned.

He explained with a smile: "I am a general in the army, you are the soldiers of the county government, I have no right to command you, although you have good intentions, but Zhang is afraid of trespassing." …… Zhang came here this time because of the entrustment of Mrs. Mao and a businessman surnamed Lu to see if he could provide some help......"

He didn't want to command it personally, but he was just a group of bandits, and he Zhang Jing could command it personally? He just picked up the gaps and quickly eradicated this group of Ying bandits, and the guards he sent to Liangcheng should almost send back the exact news.

Although Zhang Jing was actually troublesome and felt embarrassed, Huang Ben and Gao Chun were mistaken, and complimented with a smile: "General Zhang is too humble. ”

Later, the two persuaded each other many times, but Zhang Jing always shirked, and in the end, the position of the main general fell to Ma Gai, after all, in their opinion, Ma Gai has conquered this gang of thieves many times, and he has rich experience in this, and he once had a record of breaking the Black Tiger Village.

Of course, this 'main general' is not the other main general, and at best it is just a ruling when there is a difference of opinion among the people.

But even so, it still made Ma Gai panic.

Imagine, since he is the main general, he will inevitably express some opinions that are beneficial to the extermination of the Black Tiger Village, but the problem is that Ma Gai does not want to stimulate the Black Tiger Village too much.

Indeed, he thought about dying with Yang Tong, but it was a last resort, if things still had a turnaround, how could he be willing to die? Not to mention, it is very likely to expose the fact that he secretly communicates with Black Tiger Village.

But now, he has no choice, and he began to tell his opinion: "Black Tiger Village Yang Tong gang, I have dealt with them several times, I am not afraid of General Zhang making fun of them, this group of thieves is very tricky, they are good at taking advantage of the geographical advantages in the mountains, setting traps, obstacles, although now our troops are numerous, but if they attack, I am afraid that the young men under them will suffer heavy losses." …… I think it's better to fight with heavy attacks. ”

Hearing this, Huang Ben and Gao Chun both nodded again and again, and even Zhang Jing, who was listening, did not raise any objections.

Seeing this, Ma Gai felt a little more confident in his heart, and said with a smile: "Since you have no objections, after the camp is completed, we will send troops to attack the mountain......

As soon as the words fell, Zhang Jing interrupted with a smile: "Why wait until the camp is completed?" Why can't you sneak up tonight? ”

"Sneak attack tonight?" Ma Gai was stunned.

Looking at the stunned look on Ma Gai's face, Zhang Jing said with some amusement: "That's right, as Ma County Lieutenant said, this gang of thieves is good at using the mountain to set traps and obstacles, in this case, the first battle must be even faster, don't give them the opportunity to deploy traps and obstacles, why wait for the camp to be completed step by step before attacking?" …… With the strength of the three county lieutenants, it is enough to leave half of the officers and soldiers to build the camp, and ask the other half of the officers and soldiers to recuperate, and launch a sneak attack on the Black Tiger Village tonight. ”

As he spoke, he smiled and said, "In the past, the county lieutenant of Ma used to wait for the camp to be built before recruiting the bandits?" ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Be. ”

Margay nodded.

"That's even better." Zhang Jing said with a smile: "In this way, those bandits are even more defenseless, and they may be able to kill them by surprise." ”

When Gao Chun and Huang Ben heard this, they immediately supported Zhang Jing's suggestion.

Although Ma Gai accepted it on the surface, he was a little apprehensive in his heart.

As Zhang Jing said, he also felt that the Black Tiger Village was not very good at guarding against them from launching a sneak attack immediately on the night they arrived, but this was precisely the problem - if he forced Yang Tong and his gang to a dead end, how could Yang Tong and his gang let him go?

"It's all to blame on that damn Lu Kuang!"

Ma Gai secretly scolded Lu Kuang in his heart.

If it weren't for Lu Kuang inviting Zhang Jing and inviting the officers and soldiers of Runan and Yexian counties, how could he be so passive?

If there were no such people, he and the Black Tiger Village would still be able to maintain a tacit understanding, burn down the cottage halfway up the mountain, and then consume it until winter, so as not to fall into a situation where he had to fight for life and death with the Black Tiger Village.

He didn't know that in fact, Lu Kuang, who invited officers and soldiers from Runan and Yexian, was actually just a chess piece.

After discussing the tactics, Gao Chun, Huang Ben, and Ma Gai immediately began to act, ordering half of the officers and soldiers to go to the nearby forest to cut down trees, while the other half of the officers and soldiers stayed in the camp to recuperate.

Looking at the officers and soldiers resting in the camp, Ma Gai's heart was quite entangled.

Looking at Ma Gai from afar, Li Ying said to Zhang Jing with a smile: "This Ma County Lieutenant is really an upright person, every time he has to wait until he is ready before entering the mountain to encircle and suppress, doesn't he know that the longer he prepares, the longer the thieves on the mountain will also prepare?" ”

"Habit." Zhang Jing said with a smile: "There are people in this world who don't even build camps, and they attack for three days in a row and then win." ”

"Haha." Li Ying laughed when he heard this: "If General Luo is buried like this, General Luo will be unhappy." ”

"That reckless man, how can you be unhappy if you have wine to eat?" Zhang Jing said with a smile, although he kept calling reckless, but there was a bit of emotion in his tone.

At the same time, Zhao Yu stood outside the main village at the top of the mountain, looking at the officers and soldiers under the mountain.

I have to say that Zhang Jing underestimated the Black Tiger Village too much, thinking that it was just a gang of bandits, and he didn't need to take it seriously at all.

He didn't expect it, but Zhao Yu saw something wrong from the behavior of the officers and soldiers under the mountain-oh, Zhang Jing didn't know Zhao Yu at all.

"Something isn't right......

Looking at the officers and soldiers under the mountain, Zhao Yu muttered secretly.

As far as he could see, the officers and soldiers at the foot of the mountain were divided into two groups, one group went to the nearby forest to cut wood and build a camp, while the other group was only responsible for setting up the tent, and then entered the tent without knowing what they were doing.

Seeing this scene, Zhao Yu's first reaction was that this group of officers and soldiers was recuperating.

But the question is, what are these officers and soldiers doing to recharge their energy?

At this time, it must be a night attack on their Black Tiger Village, there is no doubt about it, but the question is, why did Ma Gai dare to do this?

It is undeniable that this time it is indeed the officers and soldiers of the three counties who have joined forces to crusade against his Black Tiger Village, but considering that Ma Gai has previously defeated his Black Tiger Village, and this is the territory of Kunyang, no matter what you think, Runan County Lieutenant Huang Ben and Ye County Lieutenant Gao Chun will not be anti-guest, and the two of them must be dominated by Ma Gai.

In other words, if the officers and soldiers under the mountain were really recuperating in order to sneak attack his Black Tiger Village, then it must be Ma Gai's approval, and this returns to the question of Fang Cai: Why did Ma Gai dare to do this?

You must know that his Black Tiger Village has the handle of Ma Gai, and the news sent by the eyeliner a few days ago, Ma Gai has never sent his wife and children away from Kunyang, no matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like he is going to die with his Black Tiger Village.

"Is there any one of the officers and soldiers under the mountain who is of a higher rank than Ma Gai?"

Thinking about it, Zhao Yu felt that there was only this possibility.

"Just be careful."

He muttered.

He used Lu Kuang to attract officers and soldiers from the three counties this time, just to plot against Yang Tong, if he lifted a stone to hit himself in the foot, it would be ridiculous.

He immediately sent someone to invite Guo Da and told Guo Da his judgment: "The officers and soldiers under the mountain may attack my Black Tiger Village at night tonight. ”

Guo Da's first reaction was not to believe it, and he didn't believe that Ma Gai dared to betray them, in his opinion, Ma Gai was at best disobeying their orders.

But when Zhao Yu pointed out the abnormality of the officers and soldiers under the mountain, Guo Da did not dare to slack off.

After all, there were too many officers and soldiers this time, far beyond their expectations - they originally thought that there were only officers and soldiers from Kunyang County, but they didn't expect that the officers and soldiers from Runan and Yexian County would also come to join in the fun.

Originally, if there was only Ma Gai, they and Ma Gai would have acted with each other, but the current situation does not allow Guo Da to take it lightly.

"Okay, I will immediately tell the boss to let the brothers lie in ambush in the mountain tonight, and if the officers and soldiers under the mountain really dare to come, then kill them without leaving a piece of armor!"

Around the end of the night, Ma Gai, Huang Ben, and Gao Chun each led 200 elites to attack the Black Tiger Village, but they were ambushed by the Black Tiger Village and retreated in embarrassment.

At that time, Zhang Jing was standing outside the tent of the camp and watching the battle situation of the night attack, and his face showed a little surprise and surprise when he saw this situation.

Immediately, his expression became solemn.

"This gang of bandits is indeed unusual."

He said with a frown.
