Chapter 46: Pig-like teammates
What does it mean not to be afraid of a god-like opponent, but to be afraid of a pig-like teammate?
That's it!
Glancing at the slowly approaching Japanese outside the city, and then looking down at the Ming army led by Lu Bin, who was preparing to go out of the city to kill the enemy, Qian Yuan hated it so much.
It is always the lowest level in the officer system of the Ming army, but they are often old fritters, and Lu Bin was so stunned that he was so instigated by Gui Youguang's words that he actually wanted to go out of the city to meet the enemy head-on.
Hu County's order can't be counted on, the big households in the city have different opinions, and the county officials and wardens feel that there is a lot of hope, after all, there are more than 100 people outside, and there are only two people who are clearly opposed, Qian Yuan and Zheng Ruozeng.
They all knew very well that even if there was a possibility of defeating the Japanese outside the city, they should not take this risk, as long as they held the city gate, the possibility of the Japanese bandits breaking the city was very small.
But Gui Youguang's fame has disintegrated their efforts, one is a great Confucian in the world, the other two are the hairless Qian Yuan, Zheng Ruozeng, who is currently in a state of unemployed vagrants, those officials and gentry who were born as scholars will hear about it?
Glancing at Qian Yuan, who was pale, Zheng Ruozeng reluctantly persuaded: "It may not be impossible to retreat, after all, the number of Japanese robbers is ......."
Gui Youguang instigated Lu Bin to leave the city, which was nothing more than telling the Japanese Kou that there were not no elite soldiers in the city, and with this force, you could not loot the village unscrupulously.
Before he finished speaking, Qian Yuan suddenly roared angrily: "Do you want to go to the ghost gate and lock you alone, and pull so many people to back you?!" ”
Lu Bin's escort Sun Chengen brought more than 70 people, and this time he took 50 people out of the city, the number was a bit small, so the guards of the townspeople and big households in the city gathered more than 100 people, and Shen Xingping, who was wearing a leather armor, stood at the front with a long sword in his hand.
What a death!
"Crunch ......"
The gates of the city were slowly pushed open, and the pirates outside the city let out bursts of cheers and swarmed up with spears.
"I don't know if there are so many coffins in the coffin shop in the city!" Qian Yuan pressed his hands tightly against the city wall, staring at Gui Youguang with an awe-inspiring bearing.
This old man is simply a scourge, the good situation has been stirred up like this, you don't care if you want to be the Virgin, but don't involve me!
"Good!" Gui Youguang's old face seemed to have a dog's tail flower, "Sure enough, it is worthy of being a tiger of the gate!" ”
Although there was a mess on both sides, Lu Bin, who was skilled in martial arts, showed his personal strength, and as soon as he met, he stabbed two thieves in a row with a spear in his hand, and the soldiers behind rushed up to protect the left and right, and the Ming army squad slaughtered into the group of Japanese robbers like a knife cutting tofu.
There was a cheer on the city wall, only Zheng Ruozeng and Qian Yuan had a sad face, and they could see clearly that the center of the Japanese was retreating, but they were taking the initiative to retreat, and at the same time, the two wings were rapidly deployed, and the Xiangyong behind had not yet kept up, and the Ming army had already lost its formation.
"Yang Wen!" Qian Yuan took a deep breath, no matter what, the dozens of soldiers that Lu Bin brought with him could not afford to lose, otherwise he could plan to escape from the city, and now he could only take the risk and give it a try.
Yang Wen was about to respond, when a dark-faced man on the side suddenly interjected: "Young Master Qian, I'll go with Brother Yang." ”
Yang Wen glanced at it unexpectedly and explained: "It's the Wang family's nursing home, and he shoots a good arrow." ”
Excellent archers in this era were very rare, and it was impossible to find a few in a single guard post.
Qian Yuan nodded and walked a few steps to the side, "Don't worry about those villagers, just bring the soldiers back." ”
"Xiang Yong is ...... behind" Before the swarthy man finished speaking, he caught a glimpse of the scene outside the city out of the corner of his eye.
The hundred-dozen township warriors have already blown up the nest, and the two wings of the outflanked pirates have not yet arrived, and the villagers have already dispersed in a hurry, some of them ran back and hoped that the city would open the door to let them in, and they ran to the left and right shrewdly, hoping to get around to the east city gate.
Of course, the city will not open the door, and more than a dozen Japanese robbers will cut down the twenty or thirty villagers one by one under the city in an orderly manner.
All kinds of weapons were scattered on the ground, screams were incessant, and blood soon gathered in the low-lying places.
"Ready." Qian Yuan waved his hand for the Wang Family Nursing Institute and Yang Wen to prepare, and walked to Zheng Ruozeng's side in a few steps, "Prepare to go out of the city again." ”
"No...... Can't go out of town ......"
"The city gate can't be opened, can't be opened!"
The county magistrates, the wardens and the gentry were all about opposition, and the scene of the village warriors being defeated just now frightened them out of their hearts.
"You should not open the door, but you should not open it." Qian Yuan sneered: "If you don't bring back Lu and his soldiers, will you personally go into battle to defend the city?" ”
The opposition immediately subsided, and only Zhang Xiancheng's lips slightly opened and wanted to say something, but Qian Yuan's eyes passed, and Zhang San immediately drew a knife in his hand.
"Obey me." Qian Yuan didn't let him point fingers at himself, he didn't expect Zheng Ruozeng to be so famous in later generations, but he was almost speechless at this time.
Of course, Qian Yuan's reputation was even lower, but the knives and guns in the hands of his guards made his words very influential.
Not far away, a large group of Japanese robbers were fighting with the Ming army, one side had a numerical advantage, the other side had stronger personal martial arts, and the weapons in their hands were all of the highest quality, after all, they were Lu Bo's own soldiers.
Although Lu Bin was a little stunned, but the few veterans who followed him were battle-hardened for a long time, and they had already discovered that the formation was out of touch.
However, it was not so easy for Lu Bin to return to the city, and the widows who dispersed the villagers had already gathered and blocked the way back to the city.
Attacking at both ends, once Lu Bin can't break through the interception of the Japanese in the first place, a large number of Japanese invaders behind him can stick up and calmly scatter the Ming army and strangle them.
Obviously, Lu Bin is also very clear.
The young man's face was full of hideousness, and Lu Bin was already a little unsteady on his feet, if it weren't for the veterans around him, he would have to fall down.
After stumbling a few steps, Lu Bin raised his spear and rushed out with a roar, followed by the remaining forty Ming army squads.
At this moment, Qian Yuan gritted his teeth and shouted, "Open the city gate!" ”
Everyone on the city wall nervously watched the squad that ran out of the city quickly, including the soldiers left by Lu Bin in the city, the thugs led by Yang Wen, and the guards of the big households in the city.
The widows who were caught in the middle were a little at a loss, they didn't expect that after the villagers were about to collapse, they would dare to send troops in the city.
A small leader of the Japanese with a waist knife was about to say something, when a long arrow suddenly appeared in his throat.
Qian Yuan looked fixedly, the dark-faced Wang family guard was bending the bow, the arrows were like meteors, and the arrows were not in vain, in just a dozen breaths, five or six widows had fallen from the arrows.
"Ahhh......h
In the shouting, the spear in Lu Bo's hand stabbed the chest of the Japanese in front of him, he gritted his teeth and pushed the other party all the way back, and the personal soldiers around him raised their swords together, and the more than 20 Japanese soldiers blocking the road finally broke up and fled to both sides.
Qian Yuan let out a long sigh of relief, he didn't expect that a sharpshooter in this era could exert such great power, you must know that the reinforcements brought by Yang Wen hadn't even arrived yet.
Although they quickly defeated the blocked Japanese invaders, the large group of robbers behind them also pressed up, and the Ming army and the village warriors rushed to the city gate, and there was chaos at the city gate under the mutual refusal.
Just when Qian Yuan and Zheng Ruozeng were in a hurry to jump to their feet, just when the large group of would-be robbers felt that there was still a chance, a rough short spear briefly slashed through the sky, and went straight into the chest of the thief who rushed to the front.
"Well done!" The Wang family guard praised loudly, bent his bow and arrows, and another widow was shot in the thigh.
"Good archery." Yang Wen easily shook the short spear he made with his own hands yesterday, ran two steps, and threw it violently.
Although there were no casualties this time, they all stopped.
"Prepare to close the gates." Qian Yuan, who rushed down the city wall in three steps and two steps, scolded loudly: "You haven't come back yet...... Close the gates, quick, quick! ”
At this time, Lu Bin, who was sitting on the ground, jumped up, his eyes were round and he shouted, "What about Uncle Peng?" What about Uncle Peng?! ”
Qian Yuan ignored this, Yang Wen and the Wang family guard entered the city gate, and the unthreatened widows had already approached a place dozens of steps away from the city gate, and if they opened the city gate at this time, they would be looking for death.
