No matter whether He Shouyi wants to believe it or not, Cui Xiucai's rebellion is a fait accompli.

The Ming army of Siming Mountain suffered heavy losses because of Cui Xiucai's defection, and although they barely held the cottage, there is no doubt that the next days will be very difficult.

The most serious problem is the lack of soldiers.

This will not be possible to make up for a while.

It takes time to recruit new recruits, and it takes even more time to train them.

Fortunately, He Shouyi got a batch of guns from Zheng Chenggong, and he could rely on firearms to guard them.

So the top priority now is to bring down the cannon from the dense forest down the mountain.

However, the premise of this is to confirm that the Qing army's green battalion will not suddenly kill.

Otherwise, it will not be as simple as losing a batch of artillery.

"Lord Commander, now that the East Captives have temporarily withdrawn from the army, let's appease the soldiers first."

Zhou Lihe suggested on the side.

"Hmm."

He Shouyi nodded and said, "You should indeed appease the brothers, let's go, third child." ”

The wounded in Siming Mountain were all placed in a house behind the Juyi Hall, and He Shouyi took Zhou Lihe and other cadres to go straight there.

The wounded were all wounded in different places, some were cut in the arm, and some were injured in the leg.

Those who stopped bleeding were better, and they saw Hades in a day or two after they couldn't stop.

From time to time, corpses were carried out of the house, and He Shouyi was very distressed to see it.

"Third brother, give more condolences to the families of the deceased brothers."

Zhou Lihe nodded silently when he heard this.

He Shouyi walked into the house and saw a lightly wounded soldier changing the dressing of the seriously wounded, and the seriously wounded man let out a heart-rending cry in pain.

"Brother, bear with me!"

He Shouyi stepped forward to help suppress the seriously wounded.

"Bear with it, and it's over!"

He looked closely at the wound.

The wounds of the seriously wounded had been completely festered, and the rotten flesh had to be dug out with a knife.

Otherwise, it will spread throughout the body, and the consequences will be serious.

There is not enough hemp boiling in the mountains, so you can only endure it.

He Shouyi put a wooden stick into the mouth of the seriously injured man and said, "Bit, don't hurt your tongue!" ”

Then he called for a knife, burned it on the fire, and then slashed at the rotten flesh.

Cutting meat is like cutting mud, He Shouyi picked up the knife in his hand, and quickly pulled out the rotten meat.

The seriously wounded man struggled for a while, and the two men pressed and almost made him jump.

"Brother, real man!"

He actually endured it without hemp boiling, what a man!

"Aren't Lang Zhong there?"

He Shouyi turned his head and asked Zhou Lihe.

"There are too many wounded, and there are only a few Langzhong in the village, so the brothers can only take care of each other."

Zhou Lihe said helplessly.

"It's hard for the brothers."

He Shouyi sighed.

"Third child, let's go out and talk!"

He Shouyi thought about it and pulled Zhou Lihe out of the house.

The two walked under an old locust tree, and He Shouyi sat down, like a relieved sheepskin raft.

"Big brother, don't be discouraged."

Zhou Lihe saw He Shouyi like this, not to mention how uncomfortable he felt in his heart.

"Why did it become like this, why did I become like this all these days when I left?"

He Shouyi was very remorseful in his heart. If he hadn't left Siming Mountain to go to Shuangyu, wouldn't the result be different?

"Big brother, I don't blame you, it's all Cui Xiucai's dog thief!"

"Cui Xiucai..."

When he read these three words, a fierce light appeared in He Shouyi's eyes.

That's the fierce light of a beast!

The lives of hundreds of brothers are all gone because of that Cui Xiucai's words!

It's all gone like a leek!

He Shouyi hates so much, he hates so much!

"I'm going to catch this guy and dig out my lungs and skin and cramp!"

He Shouyi clenched his fists and swore.

...

...

Yuyao County.

Cui Xiucai came to the front of Zhang Youfang, the chief officer of the Shaoxing Mansion of the Qing Army, with a smile on his face, and said flatteringly: "General Zhang has made great achievements in the world this time, and the court will definitely reward him greatly." General Zhang will surely have a prosperous official fortune from now on. The grass people are here to congratulate General Zhang. ”

He finally caught the line of the Qing army's general army, so he naturally had to behave well.

has been a poor talent all his life, and he is really poor.

As long as there is an opportunity to change his fate, no matter what it is, he will seize it tightly!

As for whether he was loyal to the Ming army or the Qing army, Cui Xiucai didn't care at all.

Which dynasty and which generation does not need to read people? Especially a capable and capable reader like him?

Zhang Youfang sat on the official hat chair with a golden knife, stroked his beard very proudly and said: "Cui Xiucai, your merits will be recorded, and you will be indispensable for the court's commendation and reward at that time." ”

This time, it was indeed thanks to Cui Xiucai who came to vote, so that the Qing army could find out the details of the Ming army's deployment and be able to make targeted arrangements.

Sure enough, the Ming army was defeated by a sudden attack, and the Qing army almost smashed Huanglong and took the cottage.

It's a pity that the Ming army resisted desperately, and it was difficult for the Qing army to go further under the terrain advantage.

Zhang Youfang could only order the withdrawal of troops.

But even then, the gains have already been substantial.

Cui Xiucai was overjoyed when he heard this: "Thank you General Zhang for your reconstruction!" ”

Cui Xiucai plopped down, knelt on the ground, hugged Zhang Youfang's riding boots and licked them.

"General Zhang's boots are dirty... The grass people helped General Zhang clean up. ”

Rao is Zhang Youfang was well-informed and was also taken aback.

No matter how Cui Xiucai says it, he is also a scholar, why is he so shameless?

Comparing his face with the city wall is an insult to the city wall!

However, for Zhang Youfang, the more such people there are, the better.

Zhang Youfang said with some disgust: "No need to clean it up anymore, get up." ”

Cui Xiucai smiled: "Obey." ”

Then stand up.

"This time, the thieves of Siming Mountain have suffered heavy losses, and General Zhang can destroy his lair in one fell swoop as long as he uses a little more force, once and for all!"

Cui Xiucai began to make suggestions again: "The grass people know a small path, they can kill directly behind the thieves from the back mountain, and kill them by surprise!" ”

"Oh?"

Zhang Youfang was quite interested.

"Why didn't you say it before?"

Cui Xiucai hurriedly explained: "Didn't the contemptible people not know General Zhang at that time? Even if the contemptible person said it, General Zhang wouldn't believe it. ”

Zhang Youfang seems to make sense when he thinks about it carefully, and when Cui Xiucai came to vote, he still suspected that it was a fraudulent surrender, and it was a strategy for the Ming army to lure them to attack the mountain.

Therefore, at that time, Zhang Youfang only selectively adopted Cui Xiucai's suggestion.

Although it turned out to be a good effect, Zhang Youfang did not fully trust Cui Xiucai at that time.

If Cui Xiucai proposed to attack from the back mountain trail at that time, Zhang Youfang would not believe it.

"Let's think about it."

For Zhang Youfang, it is certainly the best to take the nest of the Ming army in Siming Mountain in one fell swoop. But if you lose, the previous credit will inevitably be diluted.

He really needs to weigh it up.

Is it to preserve the existing credit or to fight.
