Chapter 162: Liu Zeqing Blocked
Shandong, Dongchang Province.
Liu Zeqing, the general soldier of Shandong, after knowing a little about poetry and scriptures, began to pretend to be a cultural person every day, chanting poems and singing every other day on weekdays, and often invited guests to drink and sing together, to show off his poor knowledge.
On this day, Liu Zeqing's poetry was flourishing, and he set up a banquet to entertain everyone, so that people could listen to their own poems, and all the guests flattered and praised each other.
Only a young man who looked elegant kept silent, young people, especially young people with a little ink, still have some contempt for Liu Zeqing's half-people.
Liu Zeqing was very unhappy, he poured the wine into a large gold cup, and then summoned the ape he had raised in the General Military Mansion, and asked the ape to kneel with the wine glass in his hand and hand it to the young man.
The ape was tall and vicious, and it walked forward with the golden cup, and the young man trembled with fright, and hesitated to take it.
Liu Zeqing laughed and said, "Sir, are you scared?" ”
So saying, he ordered the soldiers to bring a prisoner, and to kill him on the spot in the hall, and then cut out his brain and heart, and put him in a wine cup and wine.
The ape held the golden cup of wine to him, Liu Zeqing laughed, and then drank it while still chewing in his mouth, his face did not change at all, and everyone at the banquet was frightened.
Liu Zeqing laughed, quite complacent, and he didn't know whether it was a real smile or a fake smile, the tofu brain plus raw liver and wine, only he knew whether it tasted fishy or not.
Not long after, a personal soldier from the General Military Mansion came to report: "Junmen, that Zhou Yuji has entered the boundary of Dongchang Mansion, and he has also escorted nearly 1,000 carts of grain and grass!" ”
"Oh?" Liu Zeqing touched the blood stains on the corner of his mouth, and said with a smile: "I thought I wouldn't have a chance to clean up this surnamed Zhou, but I didn't expect him to take the initiative to send it to the door now, and bring so much grain and grass!" ”
General Yao Wenchang said: "Military Gate, that's the military rations of the crown prince's Yongwei camp, do we really want to collect it?" ”
Liu Zeqing smiled strangely: "What's wrong with the crown prince? When I arrived at the boundary of Shandong, it was a dragon, and he also coiled it for me! ”
Thinking of the embarrassment and shame in Tongzhou, Liu Zeqing felt uncomfortable, after so many years, when did he suffer such a loss?
General Yao Wenchang felt a chill in his heart, Liu Junmen's murderous intent rose again, he still remembered that Liu Junmen quarreled with one of his cousins, Liu Junmen couldn't quarrel and moved to kill, his cousin pleaded with Liu Junmen's mother, Liu Junmen pretended to be reconciled, but sent someone to kill his cousin on the way back.
Yao Wenchang was stunned, and only listened to Liu Zeqing: "Yao Wenchang listens to the order!" Immediately lead 5,000 men and horses to attack Zhou Yuji's department, just fight to the death, it's best to get me the head of Zhou Yuji! ”
"Yes!" Yao Wenchang received the order, and then immediately began to count the people and prepare to set off.
Liu Zeqing sneered, and when he received Zhou Yuji's head, he could report to the court that Zhou Yuji was looting in Dongchang Mansion, anyway, Zhou Yuji was already dead by then, and the court would not do anything to him? At most, it is a few symbolic reproaches, isn't it the case that the imperial court treats the feudal officials?
In the vicinity of Shizhuang in Dongchang Mansion, Yao Wenchang wore a cooked copper helmet with two peacock feathers, wore chain mail, covered with silk robes, and rode a high-headed horse, very confident.
According to the spies, Zhou Yuji's department only has two or three thousand people, and most of them are baggage soldiers, and he has five thousand people, isn't it easy to kill Zhou Yuji?
Yao Wenchang has long been displeased with Zhou Yuji, the guerrilla general who was killed in the Tongzhou tavern was his subordinate, and this time it can be regarded as revenge for Sunset's old subordinates!
Just when Yao Wenchang led his troops to approach Zhou Yuji's heavy team for ten miles, a well-equipped cavalry suddenly burst out in front, seven or eight cavalrymen lined up, and the cavalry led by them rode their horses and asked loudly: "Where are you guys?" So what's going on? ”
Yao Wenchang frowned, he didn't expect the patrols of the Yongwei Battalion to come here, originally he was thinking of a beautiful raid.
Long Xiang, who stepped forward to ask, couldn't help but be a little suspicious when he saw that no one had spoken, and immediately made a gesture that made his teammates more vigilant, and several Ye Bushu quickly adjusted their formation.
"Kill them!" As soon as Yao Wenchang gave the order, the cavalry around him immediately urged the war horses, brandished their weapons, and rushed forward.
Several dragons were already ready to deal with the situation, and when they saw the other party's move, they were not polite, and pulled out their muskets from the sacks of the war horses with their heads lowered, only to hear a snap, and the cavalry who rushed to the front was beaten through and fell down and dismounted.
"Withdraw!" After killing one, Long Xiang did not accept the team and quickly retreated, there were too many people on the other side, and there was no need to fight, so it was most important to send a signal.
As an excellent night guard, courage and reconnaissance ability are important, and mastering various skills is also extremely important, but more important is to be able to run! If you can get the information and slip away, that's a really mature night!
In just a moment, several dragons slipped away a hundred steps away without closing the night, leaving only a few lonely backs.
"Damn! Slipped away right under your nose! Yao Wenchang scolded angrily and immediately said: "The whole army listens to the order and attacks!" ”
At this moment, only a "pop" was heard, and a red smoke rose in the sky that slipped away from the night.
Yao Wenchang and several generals glanced at each other, and they all found that the other party's face was a little unnatural, this soldier of the Yongwei Battalion is a chicken thief, and there are such methods!
After receiving the early warning that Long Xiang would not accept it at night, Zhou Yuji frowned, he didn't expect that Liu Zeqing to be so bold and dare to blatantly attack the Yongwei Battalion in his own territory.
Zhou Yuji has been integrated into the Yongwei camp for several months, and he has long understood the style of the Yongwei camp, and most of the soldiers in the camp adhere to the principle set by the crown prince: even if it is the king of heaven, those who dare to touch us, let him shed his skin!
Since the other party is so ignorant, Zhou Yuji naturally won't say anything polite to him and pretend to be a cultural person.
"Herald, array! Against! Zhou Yuji ordered, he decided to teach the other party a profound lesson, let them know how many pounds and taels they have!
After the order was given, the many grain trucks of the baggage brigade were lined up in an orderly manner in a tight huge circle, and all the soldiers picked up their muskets and stood in the ring to resist the onslaught of the cavalry.
Yao Wenchang has never fought with the Yongwei battalion, and has never seen the Yongwei battalion shoot, when he first joined the Weiqin King, they have been staying in Tianjin Wuqing to defend the city, although they have heard the achievements of the Yongwei battalion, but they never believe it, from top to bottom they think that the imperial court is touting the crown prince, touting the people of the Beijing camp.
There is never a shortage of conceited people in the world, and Liu Zeqing's arrogant character has also infected the whole army, so after Yao Wenchang gave the order to attack, they all showed off their might, waved the weapons in their hands, and approached the baggage team of the Yongwei battalion.
