Chapter 366 Roll on the spot with a word

Lin'an, Zhejiang, the former capital of the Southern Song Dynasty, was ravaged by the peasant army at this time. When Deqing was captured, the situation had become clearer and clearer, and seeing that they were about to withdraw from Zhejiang, some peasant army leaders began to loot property on a large scale. Faced with this situation, the only thing Gao Yingxiang could do was to advance the retreat plan. The incident in Jiaxing Mansion reminded Gao Yingxiang that the endless looting would eventually make the local people rise up to resist.

On the ninth day of the first lunar month, the situation of stability had changed, and the Xuanfu army stationed in Deqing City divided half of its troops and horses, along the official road, heading west, aiming at Dusong Pass. At the same time, a small group of soldiers and horses from the Beijing camp suddenly appeared near Tianmu Mountain and attacked the sentry post near Tianmu Mountain. Gao Yingxiang reacted quickly, he was afraid that Tianmu Mountain would be occupied by the Beijing camp, so he ordered the army in the direction of Yu Qian to keep a close eye on Tianmu Mountain, and asked the leaders of the various departments to prepare for retreat within two days.

Yuhang and Li Zicheng's leaders gathered together, but at this time, everyone's faces were solemn and the atmosphere was depressed. Li Yan rarely spoke, and it seemed that he had not yet recovered from the previous fiasco. Li Zicheng sat on the chair, leaned forward slightly, bent his arms, put his elbows on his thighs, and supported his chin, "Everyone, the Living Yama King sent troops to come, and the target is directly at Dusong Pass, what should we do next?" ”

The corners of Zheng Guosong's mouth couldn't help twitching, according to his thoughts, it was okay if Dusong Guan didn't want to, but he didn't dare to say it. In contrast, Lu Weiliang was a little less taboo, thought for a moment, and said quietly: "General, my subordinates think that Dusong Pass is already a chicken rib for us now. King Chuang is now ready to evacuate, and it is estimated that the retreat order will be delivered to us in the next two days, at this time, it is really meaningless to defend Dusong Pass and cause more casualties. ”

Li Zicheng raised his head slightly, his eyes narrowed, and he sighed lightly: "But if the Living Yama King occupies Dusong Pass, then our back will be unstable, with the sharpness of the cavalry under the command of the Living Yama King, we can quickly cross the Tianmu Mountain in the west and cut off our back road." ”

Everyone's faces couldn't help but be a little ugly, Dusongguan had become a chicken rib for the peasant army. The retreat is imminent, so naturally I don't have the heart to attack Hangzhou City, since I don't want to fight Hangzhou, why do I want to do Dusong Pass? However, Dusong Pass was very important to the officers and soldiers, especially to the living Hades. If the living king of Hell takes the trench of Dusong Pass, he can send cavalry to directly attack Tianmu Mountain, in this case, the tens of thousands of soldiers and horses of the Beijing battalion under Xu Hongji are cooperating, and Tianmu Mountain will really not be able to hold it. With the fall of Tianmu Mountain, officers and soldiers can attack Lin'an and Yuqian at any time, and at that time, the more than 100,000 peasant troops who entered Zhejiang will be cut off.

In fact, it seems that the chicken ribs of Dusong Pass really have to be defended, at least until the soldiers and horses on the Lin'an side begin to retreat. But how many casualties will be added to defending Dusong Pass and fighting fiercely with the elite soldiers of the living Hades? The main thing is to cause more casualties for others, and no one wants to do this kind of thing. How difficult it is to deal with the living Hades, everyone knows very well in their hearts, if it is not necessary, they really don't want to fight with this person.

Everyone's thoughts naturally couldn't hide from Li Zicheng, and seeing that everyone was speechless, he had no choice but to continue: "Withdraw the soldiers and horses of Qiantang, divide the troops and Dusong Pass, and we will have to defend this Dusong Pass for at least two days." If we abandon Dusong Pass, don't say that Li is unwilling, and we will not be able to deal with the king, and when the time comes, what will the brothers think of us? ”

Hearing this, Zheng Guosong, Xu Beichuan and others all lowered their heads. Although what Li Zicheng said made sense, when he thought of having a vicious battle with the living Hades, he couldn't help but feel some palpitations in his heart. Especially Xu Beichuan, from Tongling to Deqing, was chased by the living king of Hades and beaten violently, and he was so angry that he lost his spirit.

No one invited to fight, and the scene was a little deserted. Li Zicheng could only smile bitterly in his heart. Li Yan can be regarded as a newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers, and after fighting with the living Hades, he was silent. The Living Yama King is really a scourge, since the incident, it has been almost invincible, but every time he encounters the Living Yama King, he will inevitably be unlucky. I don't know if God deliberately arranged it, and every time I have to face the living Hades.

In the end, Lu Weiliang and Li Zicheng had a good relationship, and when he saw that the scene was deserted, he took the initiative to resolve the embarrassment, "General, let's go to Dusong Pass, but this Dusong Pass subordinate can only hold it for two days at most, and after two days, he will withdraw if he says anything." Now that our troops have been defeated and suffered heavy losses, we must not fall into the quagmire of Dusong Pass. ”

Li Zicheng stood up and looked at Lu Weiliang, there was a little more gratitude in his eyes, "Brother Lu, don't worry, you are in charge of the affairs of Dusong Pass, in short, don't lose too much, everything can be done cheaply." ”

When encountering problems, Li Zicheng, like Lu Weiliang, first thinks of survival. This is also a helpless move, the internal situation of the peasant army is complicated, if it does not preserve its strength, it may be swallowed by others in the blink of an eye. This is a very realistic world, although Gao Yingxiang is his uncle, but in front of power, how many people can not be confused?

On the eleventh day of the first month of the fourth year of Chongzhen, the calm Dusong Pass made waves again, Liu Guoneng and Li Yuanqing led 10,000 soldiers and horses from the town outside Dusong Pass, and slowly advanced to the hills to the west. Liu Guoneng's advance was very slow, but it was very steady, and because the formation was maintained very tightly, there was no opportunity for the enemy to take advantage of it. At noon on the twelfth day of the first month, Liu Guoneng's headquarters arrived at the first key point stone village in the east of Dusong Pass. The stone village, built on the highest position on the steep slope of the hills, can be said to be the east gate of Dusong Pass, and has always been the defense point of Dusong Pass. At this time, the garrison of the stone village was to roll Lei Ren on the spot, and the defenders were more than 5,000 people.

Speaking of which, Rolling Lei Ren and Tie Mo on the spot can be regarded as a pair of old acquaintances. At the beginning, Tie Mo was able to rise rapidly, and he climbed up by stepping on his Lei Ren's shoulder. I thought that when I was in Yehuling, Lei Ren wanted the wind to be windy, to be rainy, and his life was chic and happy, but he didn't expect to be planted in the hands of Tiemo. In the battle outside the Wild Fox Ridge, Lei Ren had seen Tiemo's bravery with his own eyes, this guy was a mad dog.

After being under Wang Jiayin's command, Lei Ren would keep an extra eye every time he saw Tiemo, so after several encounters, the men and horses under his command suffered the least casualties. All along, Lei Ren didn't want to fight the living Hades, but this time he couldn't dodge. If he abandoned the stone village, Lu Weiliang behind him would probably immediately cut off someone's head.

", what kind of heart does Lu Weiliangan have? There are so many people, so I have to let Lao Tzu guard the bird place of Shizhai. When the battle is fought on this one, you still have to guard the Dusong Pass! Lei Ren hid in the room alone and cursed, he felt that Lu Weiliang did it on purpose. At the beginning, Wang Jiayin's old subordinates were not very popular under King Chuang. If it weren't for the fact that he had done too many angry things before, if it weren't for the fact that the officers and soldiers on the other side were the people of the Living Hades, Lei Ren would have wanted to surrender.

was sulking alone, and a gunshot rang out outside the stone village, and Lei Ren couldn't help but shiver. He ran outside with a knife and roared, and when he turned his head, the cold hairs on his back stood up. I saw that there were many more officers and soldiers on the high wall of the stockade, and the two sides were fighting fiercely. How so? How did the officers and soldiers hit the wall so quickly? Did they fly up?

Stone village, in fact, can only guard the wall, if the wall is lost, the stone village will be almost lost. Lei Ren couldn't think of a reason if he wanted to break his head, and the deputy general Qi Meilai passed in front of him in a panic with a vote of soldiers and horses, Lei Ren dragged the other party and yelled loudly: "Why are you going?" ”

Qi Meilai hurriedly said: "Support the wall, Leader Lei, you have to hurry up and kill the officers and soldiers, if you delay it any longer, the stone village will be gone......"

"Look at the Zhaimen, how many officers and soldiers are there? You can still get it back, ...... Order the people in the stockade to retreat to the west mountain road, Niangdi, if you don't leave, we all have to stay here...... The stone village can't hold it anymore......"

Lei Ren doesn't have any great skills, but he has amazing observation and can make accurate judgments on the battlefield situation in a timely manner, and because of this, he can mix well in the peasant army in a bad situation. The nickname of rolling on the spot is not called in vain, when it comes to running away and surviving, Lei Ren feels that he never loses to others.

Since there were no more reinforcements to guard the wall, the stone village was quickly taken down by Liu Guoneng and Li Yuanqing. Walking into the stone village, looking at the relatively intact Dazhai, Liu Guoneng was a little confused, "This is to take down the stone village?" ”

Li Yuanqing also didn't come back to his senses a little, and the attack went smoothly beyond imagination. Although the soldiers of the mountain battalion cooperated and secretly attacked the wall, if it weren't for the thieves going wrong, it would have taken a lot of effort to take the stone village, "What the hell is going on?" I really let the overseer say it right...... How did the Overseer know that as soon as we attacked the wall, the thieves would retreat without a fight....."

Liu Guoneng smiled bitterly, he had been with Tiemo for a long time, and he also knew the situation inside the peasant army, and after pondering for a while, he could understand a little, "Hey, it's probably because of Lei Ren." Brother Li didn't know that this person was called rolling on the spot, and he was famous for his life. This guy was messing around in Wild Fox Ridge back then, and I heard that he used to dominate the north of Jin with others in Wild Fox Ridge, and then he was killed by the Inspector and lost his armor, and after that, this guy seems to have a psychological shadow, and he ran away when he saw the Inspector......."

"And what's going on? In that case, how could Lu Weiliang let Lei Ren come to guard the stone village? Li Yuanqing shook his head with some tears and laughter, and rolled on the spot, it really deserves its name, this speed of escaping is the best in the world.

"Who knows what Lu Weilai thinks? Forget it, let's get ready, we have to continue to fight Dusong Pass tomorrow! ”

Liu Guoneng and Li Yuanqing sharpened their knives and prepared for a decisive battle in Dusongguan, but at this time, Dusongguan Dazhai had already turned the sky upside down. Hearing that Shizhai fell into the hands of the officers and soldiers in a blink of an eye, the leaders were so shocked that their eyes almost exploded, and some even scolded, "I beg for ..... What is Lei Ren doing...... A good stone village was guarded for less than half a day and then given to the officers and soldiers, why didn't he die? If he rushes back, Lao Tzu will ....."

A strong man slammed his knife on the ground, clanging, and before the words landed, a little minion ran into the hall, "Report...... Leader Lei led the troops back to the stockade, and now he has gone to his camp to rest......."

The corners of Lu Weiliang's mouth twitched, and he didn't bother to scold. This muddy ball came back really fast, and he was scolding here, and he came back. Without saying a word, Lu Weiliang took the leaders to Lei Ren's camp, and when he saw it, he was immediately speechless. I saw that the soldiers in front of me were talking and laughing, all of them were neatly dressed and armored, and their faces were full of red light, and they didn't look like people who had just fought a lost battle.

It's strange, obviously just abandoned the stone village and suffered a defeat, why do you still look relaxed? Lu Weiliang didn't say a word, and went directly to the deputy general Qi Meilai, and asked carefully about the damage, and everyone was even more speechless.

Shizhai fell, the soldiers were defeated and fled, but they only lost less than 400 people, I really can't imagine how this battle was fought, could it be that as soon as the officers and soldiers went up the wall, Lei Ren ran back with people?

Finally, Lu Weiliang couldn't help it, and after letting people find Lei Ren, he asked angrily: "Leader Lei, should you give someone Lu a good explanation?" ”

Lei Ren sneered in his heart, and there was not much fear on his face. There are nearly 5,000 soldiers and horses under his command, and he has soldiers in his hands, and he is afraid of a ball. Although Lei Ren fights and loves to flee for his life, he lives very clearly, always trying to find ways to enhance his strength, and never reluctantly does what he can't do. It is precisely because of this that his strength can grow little by little. In short, as long as his fists are hard enough and he has enough soldiers and horses in his hands, even if Li Zicheng wants to move himself, he has to think about it.

"Leader Lu, the officers and soldiers attacked the stone village, and suddenly appeared on the wall, and many officers and soldiers gathered at the gate of the wall. The situation is not in my favor, brother, I ordered the withdrawal of Shizhai, what's wrong? Lei Ren squinted, and he didn't hide it, so he almost said that he wanted to preserve his strength.

Lu Weiliang's head twitched, and for some reason, he felt that there was a hint of sarcasm in Lei Ren's eyes just now. was despised and couldn't speak. In fact, Lu Weiliang sent Lei Ren to Shizhai with the intention of weakening Lei Ren. Lei Ren initially threw himself under Wu Yangui, but after Wu Yangui was defeated and killed, he voted for Wang Jiayin. Lei Ren wandered around, but he was in a mixed mood, this guy was not a henchman, he only thought about his one-third of an acre. This kind of person is a headache, so Lu Weiliang wants to weaken Lei Ren, and when the time is right, he swallows Lei Ren's soldiers and horses.

Although the idea was good, I didn't expect Lei Ren to be not stupid, and he ran away after guarding the stone village for less than half a day.

A big man behind Lu Weiliang stood up and pointed at Lei Ren's nose, sneering and mocking: "Hey, you really dare to open your teeth, don't you panic?" Less than 400 people were lost, and the stone village was handed over, you are embarrassed to say, if Lao Tzu were you, he would have found a piece of tofu and killed him....."

"Yo he...... Big eyes, what are you talking about? Is it that after half of the loss is lost, Lei can order a retreat, when is the lives of his brothers so worthless? Do you know that the situation is unfavorable, but you have to fight hard? ”

"You..... You..... Strong words and reasoning ......"

Seeing that the two sides were arguing, Lu Weiliang only felt a headache, raised his hand and shouted: "Enough, shut up for me, huh, since you are back, then take a good rest, it is estimated that the officers and soldiers will soon launch an attack on the pass." ”

Lu Weiliang made a gesture, turned around with the person, took two steps, and glanced back at Lei Ren meaningfully.
