Chapter 43: The Grass Pavilion Meeting
After talking about civil affairs, Wu Gang thought about Phoenix Mountain and the water bandits again.
Although there are more than 1,000 horses today, the only ones who can really fight are about 100 county soldiers and township soldiers.
"Commanders, should we attack Phoenix Mountain or the Water Bandits next?" Wu Gang also wanted to hear everyone's opinions.
Squadron Yang immediately spoke: "Young Marshal, the terrain of the Phoenix Mountain Trail is like a deep ditch, and if you want to pass through the deep ditch, you must pay a lot of casualties before you can attack Phoenix Mountain!" It is better to attack the water bandits first to expand the scale of the army, the water village is just a wooden wall and can be easily destroyed. ”
"I heard that the water bandits have more than 1,000 troops, and the leaders are also very strong, it is difficult to eliminate them with these sword soldiers alone!" The owner of the village shook his head and said.
Slowly sorting out the information in his head, Chen Fu also said: "Unless you use beast soldiers, you will train for a month first, and then the sword soldiers will be able to use them!" ”
The four commanders also nodded, and the current sword soldiers were simply unbearable!
It's okay to use a small part of the snake and rat soldiers, but Wu Gang doesn't want to cause the mountain people to panic, and the insect and beast soldiers are also his last hole cards, and they can't be used casually.
"There are too many changes in a month, let's fight the water bandits first! But you can't attack hard! Commander Wang, you will take 300 sword soldiers to the water village tomorrow to call for battle, and then defeat and lead some of the water bandits out, and then Commander Yang will lead 500 people to ambush them, and the Japanese young marshal will also support you tomorrow. "The true three worlds need the day after tomorrow or the day after tomorrow to fight against the soldiers, and Wu Gang will not have to go over to command tomorrow.
"Honorable Order." The faces of the two commanders Wang and Yang were also full of joy, but they heard that the water bandits were much stronger than the mountain bandits, which also meant that the corpses harvested would definitely not be less.
At this time, the head of the village Chen also said: "The young marshal Phoenix Mountain also has to be guarded, it is better to negotiate with them first and delay it for a few days, lest they go down the mountain and affect the actions of our soldiers." ”
Wu Gang nodded: "It's okay, passing by Phoenix Mountain tomorrow morning, this young marshal will personally talk to the master of Jiangzhai." ”
Although the reputation of Phoenix Mountain is not very good, it is not bad, at least it will not kill innocents indiscriminately, and if it can make them surrender, it will be good to attack hard.
Time was in a hurry, and early in the morning, most of the soldiers and horses also began to head to the southern east water village.
Wu Gang rode the king of mountain horses and soon came to the foot of Phoenix Mountain.
"Squadron Zhao, you go and ask them to go down the mountain for a while, and the young marshal will only wait for a pillar of incense." Wu Gang also wanted to go up and have a look, but he didn't want to take the risk.
There is a sentry post at the foot of Phoenix Mountain, and there are two mountain horses that transmit messages.
Although the other party was only three people, they rode a high-headed horse, and the small leader knew at a glance that they were the big men of the defeated army in Liaodong.
Huh~ Zhao's squadron stopped at twenty meters from the mountain bandits, and he was not afraid of being attacked by bows and arrows at this distance.
"Ladies and gentlemen, the young marshal of Xishan is passing by Phoenix Mountain, please inform you that the owner of the village and the master of the young village will go down the mountain for a while, and a pillar of incense will not wait."
Young Marshal Xishan! As soon as he heard that it was the name of the young master, the little leader immediately responded: "Wait a minute, the good man, we will report immediately." ”
Then a mountain horse also immediately rushed to the cottage.
Wu Gang also came to a grass pavilion and sat down, he waited for a while and just wanted to get up and leave, and there was a sound of horses' hooves on the mountain.
A total of ten good horses came to the foot of the mountain and stopped, and then the three war horses also slowly walked towards the grass pavilion.
"Good horse!" Seeing the king of the mountain horses grazing next to the grass pavilion, Jiang Lin couldn't help but admire.
Jiang Hu's attention was on the chainmail man with a knife and a gun. Shocked at a glance, Jiang Hu felt that he might not be his opponent!
When the guests came, Wu Gang also stood up, and to his delight, the little woman with a sword also came.
"Hmph~ poor boy, I'm just here to thank you for returning the sword last time, but I didn't want to come to see you!" Jiang Lian'er lowered her head and scolded secretly.
As soon as Jiang Hu got off the horse, Wu Gang laughed: "It must be the leader of the Jiang League, please." ”
Jiang Hu smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Young marshal please first, but don't mention this alliance leader!" ”
Jiang Lin shook his head speechlessly: Hey! It's also bullshit league leader, now the other cottages are gone!
"Hey~ Thank you for returning the sword last time!" Saying that, Jiang Lian'er also returned the salute.
Wu Gang was stunned for a moment before he laughed: "Miss Jiang doesn't need to say thank you, the Xishan Army will not hurt women and children." ”
Xishan Army! Jiang Hu's father and son immediately frowned! It seems that this group of people really has a big plan!
"Humph! I'm not a woman or child! Jiang Lian'er suddenly glared at Wu Gang angrily.
Jiang Lian'er is young, but her swordsmanship is not bad, and her combat strength is full of forty.
~Yes! The woman is naturally not weak! Wu Gang smiled awkwardly, it was indeed his wrong intention.
Ay! Jiang Hu glanced at his daughter with taste! No wonder you have to follow!
"Lian'er, don't be rude!" Jiang Hu's eyes changed, and Jiang Lian'er also reacted, now they are hostile!
Suddenly, Wu Gang also felt that this old uncle was a bit in the way!
"Master Jiangzhai, this young marshal also said bluntly. The Xishan Army hopes that Phoenix Mountain can join us, but in the future, your subordinates will also be dispersed and reorganized. ”
Jiang Hu shook his head with a light smile, how could Phoenix Mountain easily surrender to outsiders after being established in Phoenix Mountain for decades, not to mention that he didn't know how long these defeated soldiers could hold out. Even if he was willing to surrender, the other leaders might not.
"Young Marshal, in the future, the Xishan Army will command thousands of people, and I Phoenix Mountain will never dare to offend your army, if we encounter a foreign enemy, our two departments can also form an alliance to resist the enemy!"
It is better to be the head of the chicken than the tail of the ox, and Wu Gang also knows that they will not agree easily. "Our army does not need to form alliances, it is enough to deal with all foreign enemies. The owner of Jiangzhai can think about it for a few days, and my Xishan Army will not stop the people of Phoenix Mountain from traveling in the next few days. ”
Before Jiang Hu could speak, Jiang Lian'er laughed: "Okay, great, we can go down the mountain." ”
Wu Gang smiled: "Miss Jiang, don't worry, the Xishan Army will not stop you and your guards in the future." ”
"Yikes! Hmph~What are you talking about~" Jiang Lian'er blushed, didn't this poor boy know that her father was by her side!
Ay! Jiang Hu is so depressed! He didn't even have the courage to be angry now, he felt that if he dared to move, he would be killed by the chainmail man!
"That's good! Young marshal, the owner of the village will discuss with the brothers for a few days, and then let my son personally inform the brothers of the cottage of their choice. Saying that, Jiang Hu also stood up, he couldn't stand the eyebrows of his baby daughter and others!
Wu Gang also stood up: "Then wait for Brother Jiang." ”
Jiang Lin also returned the salute: "The young marshal is polite, and the great grace is not grateful!" But Jiang Lin still has to thank him. ”
Wu Gang nodded lightly, he knew that Jiang Lin was talking about letting them go before.
Jiang Hu hugged his fists again, and also took a pair of children on the horse and left.
"Oh, I forgot to ask her name!" Wu Gang has seen a lot of beautiful and quiet girls in his previous life, but Jiang Lian'er's style of being a heroine is something he has never seen before!
After coming to the foot of the mountain to join the large army, Jiang Lian'er couldn't help but look back: Hey! What else is this kid looking at! This kid didn't even tell me his name!
As soon as Jiang Hu returned to the cottage, all the leaders also surrounded him.
As soon as the owner of the village was seated, the second master asked: "The owner of the village, what kind of young marshal is this young marshal?" ”
What intentions! Jiang Hu can't say: his baby daughter was molested, and he didn't dare to do it!
Wu Gang's fiery eyes were like a wolf, if Jiang Hu really wanted to beat him ten times and a hundred times!
