A moment later, the guards sent by Zhang Jing came back to pay their respects.

"General, the head catcher is named Ishihara, who was originally a ranger, and it is said that he was also recruited by local officers and soldiers in the Jiangxia area to fight against the rebels. Later, they passed through Kunyang, because they coveted Kunyang's thief reward, resulting in a companion being killed by the Black Tiger Village's group of bandits, so this Ishihara took his other three companions to the command of the Ma County Lieutenant, determined to eradicate the Black Tiger Village group of bandits. ”

"Revenge for friends and defection to the government is righteous."

Zhang Jing nodded appreciatively.

The secular view of rangers is mixed, because there are many righteous people who punish adultery and eliminate evil, and see injustice, but there are also people who commit murder and robbery because they are shy - the latter is not an exaggeration to call them rogues.

Since most of the rangers' actions are based on personal likes and dislikes, they are not welcomed by local governments.

However, Ishihara and these people, Zhang Jing still has a good impression, after all, Ishihara and others have been recruited by local officials and soldiers in Jiangxia and fought with rebels, and this alone is enough for Zhang Jing to eliminate his prejudice against them.

"Is there anything special about this person?"

Li asked puzzled.

Zhang Jing pointed to Ishihara in the distance and said, "You see that the county soldiers under him all hold wooden shields, I guess it must be what he asked Ma Gai for." Why do you need to carry a wooden shield? Apparently he suffered a loss in terms of flying arrows...... This person is definitely the one who knows the most about the Black Tiger Village, and I will ask him about it when I go back and learn about the strength of the Black Tiger Village. ”

Li Cheng suddenly realized, and carefully looked at the officers and soldiers in Kunyang, Runan, and Yexian here, and sure enough, only the officers and soldiers under Ishihara carried wooden shields.

He said with emotion: "The general is still as sharp as before. ”

"It's a must." Zhang Jing smiled indifferently.

At this time, Ma Gai, Huang Ben, Gao Chun three county lieutenants have begun to try to attack the mountain, at the request of Ishihara, he and his command of 300 officers and soldiers to take the lead, Ma Gai led the rest of the Kunyang officers and soldiers in the center, as for Huang Ben and Gao Chun, they were responsible for the left and right wings, three ways together, together to attack the old village of Black Tiger Village.

"Attack!"

With Ma Gai's order, nearly a thousand officers and soldiers rushed to the oncoming hillside like a tide.

In view of the fact that the mountains and forests below the old village of Heihu Village had been set on fire by Ma Gai earlier, the officers and soldiers had no obstacles.

Looking at the officers and soldiers all over the mountains, Ma Gai was very entangled in his heart.

Although it was an attempt to attack the mountain, Huang Ben and Gao Chun, as well as the unattainable General Zhang Jingzhang, all intended to take the old village in one go, so they used a full thousand officers and soldiers.

A thousand officers and soldiers!

How many people are there in Black Tiger Village? Six hundred? Seven hundred?

Among them, it is necessary to get rid of women and children, and Ma Gai really can't imagine how the Black Tiger Village can withstand so many officers and soldiers.

And if the Black Tiger Village can't resist it, then he ......

Just as Ma Gai was thinking wildly, he suddenly heard the officers and soldiers in front of him screaming and shouting: "Mulberry! Mullet! ”

Ma Gai subconsciously raised his head, and immediately saw that halfway up the mountain, there were bandits pushing down thick logs horizontally.

I saw that the log surrounded by one person rolled down the hillside, rolling faster and faster, as if it had become a killing weapon to hurt people.

Looking at the logs rolling down the mountain, the officers and soldiers who rushed to the front immediately panicked, turned around and ran, trying to run down the mountain.

But how can their speed be as fast as the speed at which the log rolls down?

For a time, dozens of officers and soldiers who fled on their backs were hit by logs, and one by one they became falling gourds, gurgling and rolling down, life and death unknown.

Among them, there are many Kunyang officers and soldiers under Ishihara's command who are armed with wooden shields.

Seeing this crisis situation, Ishihara shouted loudly: "Don't run away with your back, you can't outrun these logs, the soldiers with shields immediately form a formation, lean over and block with shields!" Shield ......"

Before he could finish his words, suddenly his companion Chen Gui dragged him down, and at the same time raised his shield above the heads of the two of them.

Hearing a boom, a log passed over the shield that Chen Gui held above his head, and continued to roll down the mountain, knocking down a large number of officers and soldiers.

"Damn it!"

Hearing the screams and wails behind him, Ishihara scolded, immediately turned his head to check Chen Gui's situation, and saw that the latter was holding his right hand holding the shield and showed a painful expression, and hurriedly asked, "Agui, how are you?" ”

Chen Gui gritted his teeth and didn't speak, and slammed his arm, but when he heard a click, the dislocated bone was suddenly reset, and he gasped and said, "No, it's okay......"

However, before he could finish his sentence, someone exclaimed, "Here we go again!" ”

Ishihara and Chen Gui hurriedly looked up, and sure enough, they saw a lot of sassaga pushed down again halfway up the mountain.

"Don't panic, form a formation, block with a shield!"

Ishihara shouted loudly, and immediately raised his shield with several officers and soldiers around him.

I don't know how long it took, but I heard a thud, and Ishihara only felt an irresistible force in front of him, and his entire arm holding the shield was numb.

But fortunately, they still stood in the way.

However, those who did not have wooden shields suffered from them.

From the beginning of the first wave of sandalwood attacks, there are many people who have been hit by the rapidly rolling logs, and immediately the bones were smashed, covering the wounds and screaming, and the poor bystanders did not have time to rescue them, so they were attacked by the second wave of sandalwood.

There were even people who were hit on the head by a log that was bumpy and flying up due to the uneven slope of the hill, and they fell to the ground and died on the spot.

Of course, not all officers and soldiers were hit by such a devastating blow, after all, the direction in which the sassal wood rolled down the hillside was unpredictable, and many officers and soldiers could still dodge back and forth.

However, while they were dodging, a rain of arrows fell from the top of the hillside, and someone was killed on the spot.

"Retreat! Fall back! Fall back! ”

Ma Gai shouted three retreats, and the officers and soldiers on the hillside heard it and quickly withdrew down the mountain, so as not to be embarrassed.

"Hahaha-"

The laughter of the bandits came from the mountains.

At the same time, in the main formation at the foot of the mountain, Zhang Jing and Li Ying looked up at the hillside in the distance and clearly saw this scene.

Li Cheng muttered in disbelief: "Salama wood resists the enemy? This gang of thieves actually ......"

“……”

Zhang Jing didn't say a word.

The night attack a few days ago can be regarded as his light enemy, so this battle can only be said that the Black Tiger Village is well prepared.

But Zhang Jing still had the illusion that he felt as if he was not helping to encircle and suppress a group of bandits, but commanding a tough battle.

After a while, Ma Gai, Huang Ben, and Gao Chun withdrew to the bottom of the mountain with the wounded soldiers, and immediately came to Zhang Jing's place to discuss with him.

Looking at the wounded soldiers everywhere nearby, Zhang Jing said in a deep voice: "Organize another army to attack the mountain......

Huang Ben and Gao Chun looked at each other and said euphemistically: "General, the soldiers ......"

Zhang Jing raised his hand to interrupt the two, and said in a deep voice: "For a salamella attack of the scale of Fang Cai, the thieves of Black Tiger Village must have been preparing for a long time, if they retreat from this, wouldn't they have sacrificed many soldiers in vain?" …… I guess there is no more wood on the mountain, and if we send another army, we will definitely be able to attack the old village. ”

Huang Ben, Gao Chun, and Ma Gai glanced at each other, and immediately gathered more than 500 intact officers and soldiers to storm the old village again.

To the surprise of Ma Gai, Huang Ben, and Gao Chun, Zhang Jing actually bent down to pick up a spear from a wounded soldier and swept it with one hand: "Lighter." ”

With that, he turned and walked towards the team that Zheng was preparing to attack the mountain again.

Li Cheng was slightly stunned, and immediately followed with the guards.

"He's going to go into battle himself?!"

Huang Ben, Gao Chun, and Ma Gai were shocked.

The dignified Five Tigers of Chenmen, the general of the dynasty who held tens of thousands of soldiers, actually wanted to go into battle in person in an operation to encircle and suppress bandits?

It turned out that they guessed correctly, only to see Zhang Jing walk up to the team of about 500 people, and said in a deep voice: "Don't panic, I guess the sassal wood on the mountain has been exhausted, and if you go up the mountain at this time, you will definitely be able to break the thief village." Join me...... Above! ”

Zhang Jing personally went out, and Huang Ben, Gao Chun, and Ma Gai dared to lag behind, and urged one after another: "Attack!" Offensive! ”

Although the more than 500 officers and soldiers did not know who Zhang Jing was, they did not dare to disobey the orders of Huang Ben, Gao Chun, and Ma Gai, so they attacked the hillside again.

At this time, in the old village of Black Tiger Village, there were four village owners, Chen Mo, Wang Qing, Liu Heimu, and Liu Mao, and more than 200 bandits in the vicinity.

Seeing that the first wave of the offensive of the officers and soldiers was repelled by them, except for Chen Mo, who was still expressionless, Wang Qing, Liu Heimu, and Liu Mao were all very proud, and the officers and soldiers under the joke mountain did nothing except for the large number of people.

However, just as they were laughing and chatting arrogantly, a bandit suddenly reported: "Four village masters, officers and soldiers are attacking the mountain again!" ”

"Huh? Dare to come? ”

Liu Heimu was surprised, and immediately asked the nearby bandits: "How many pieces of wood are there?" ”

One of the thieves replied, "It's basically all gone." ”

Hearing this, Liu Mao immediately said: "Three, since the sassaga wood has been used up, otherwise let's retreat to the main village......

Before the words fell, Wang Qing laughed at him and said: "Liu Mao, your courage is too small, without those sassal trees, you are so afraid of the officers and soldiers under the mountain?" ”

I have to say that Liu Mao is really not bold, otherwise he would not have taken his brothers to the Black Tiger Village in a hurry when his cottage had not been attacked by Ishihara's group of officers and soldiers.

But at this moment, being ridiculed by Wang Qing in person, Liu Mao still couldn't pull his face, and defended with a flushed face: "Who said I was cowardly? I just don't want the brothers to have unnecessary casualties, and Zhou Hu also said that if you can't stop it, you will give up the old village......"

"Haha." Wang Qing scoffed: "You are such a big person, you actually have to be at the mercy of a teenager? Come on, get out, Lao Tzu will guard himself for a while...... I don't care what Zhou Hu's kid arranges. ”

After that, he turned his head and asked Chen Mo, "What do you say?" ”

Chen Mo picked up the spear beside him and walked forward, and said lightly: "It depends on the situation." ”

"Hey."

Wang Qingwei laughed and rushed up with two knives.

Looking at the backs of Chen Mo and Wang Qing leaving, Liu Heimu whispered to Liu Mao: "As Chen Mo said, let's wait and see first, we can't be underestimated by Wang Qing's ......."

Liu Mao stiffened his face and nodded slightly.

A moment later, after a burst of crossbow shots, Zhang Jing, Huang Ben, Gao Chun, and Ma Gai led more than 500 officers and soldiers to kill the old village of Black Tiger Village.

In the face of the menacing offensive of the officers and soldiers, Chen Mo, Wang Qing, Liu Heimu, and Liu Mao led more than 200 bandits to resist.

"Aha, if you hit your grandfather Wang Qing, it's not good for your kid's life!"

Coincidentally, after cutting down several officers and soldiers, Wang Qing took the initiative to bump into Zhang Jing.

Hearing this, Zhang Jing's tense face showed a somewhat contemptuous smile.

“…… Not necessarily. ”

He Zhang Jing is not the kind of general who will only give orders in the back.
