However, it was said that a day ago, Gao Yu's military order was issued to Dezhou and Caozhou, but it caused an uproar.

The Caozhou Soldiers and Horses Supervisor is the old general of Liangshan two-headed snake Xie Zhen, after getting Gao Yu's order to send troops to Frost Wind Ridge to help the second general of water and fire capture the official document of Liangshan thief Dong Shuang, he thought about it for half an hour, and he was still restless.

After thinking about it for a long time, Xie Zhen still went to Texas to find the Texas Soldiers and Horses Supervisor, and the brother Twin-tailed Scorpion Xie Bao to discuss.

Xie Zhen entered the secret room and spoke first: "Brother, the old thief has always suppressed our old Liangshan people, and our original Taishou has also been demoted to the capital prison, but this time he is willing to use us to make meritorious contributions, or to deal with Dong Shuang in Liangshan, what do you think?"

"Big brother, I'm afraid this matter is not simple." Xie Bao frowned, and said in a low voice: "In my opinion, Gao Yu must be trying to frame us secretly!"

"Brother is right, I'm just remembering something!"

Xie Zhen suddenly came to his senses, slapped the table and said loudly: "Last year, we suppressed bandits in the territory, but the follow-up soldiers and horses were detained by unknown people, and we almost died at the hands of thieves that time, now it seems that it may be Gao Yu who did it?"

"I'm afraid it is!" Xie Zhen's eyes gradually sank: "If we go to attack Dong Shuang, this old thief has always wanted us to die, and it is estimated that we will mess around in the rear, and when the time comes, I am afraid that the foundation will be unstable, the court will misunderstand, and my life will be in danger!"

Xie Bao thought for a while, and said: "That Dong Shuang is also a hero, everyone in the rivers and lakes says that he is a hero and a hero, instead of fighting with him, why not go to him?"

Xie Zhen was still a little hesitant, but when he heard him say this, he was immediately overjoyed and said: "This is very good, let's set off now, take the soldiers and horses of the headquarters and go according to Gao Yu's words!"

The two discussed, each brought 5,000 soldiers and horses, and gathered to the east of Caozhou.

Time returned to the present, Dong Ping heard the report of the Snow Leopard Battalion that Xie Zhen and Xie Bao were coming, but he was secretly vigilant in his heart, so he only took Shi Bao and Yang Zaixing, and drove forward with three horses.

Dong Ping is still very relieved about the intelligence capability and individual combat capability of the Snow Leopard Battalion.

This unit is currently the strongest single combat presence in his army, each of them is equipped with spears made of point steel, a total of no more than a hundred people, divided into ten teams, each captain is a veteran of a hundred battles.

These people were all trained by Shi Xiu and Tang Bin for infiltration and reconnaissance, plus the carbon steel armor they were equipped with and the two Divine Condor crossbows for each person, their comprehensive quality was naturally strong.

Even the war horses that everyone is equipped with are famous horses purchased from the Western Regions a few days ago, and it is not a problem to travel hundreds of miles a day.

After being discovered during the investigation, even if he wants to forcibly break through, there is no one to be his edge.

In Dong Ping's opinion, in addition to not being equipped with modern guns, this unit can be said to be in no way inferior to the special forces he served in before.

After a while, Dong Ping had already seen the two people opposite.

When Xie Zhen saw Dong Ping, he immediately restrained his soldiers and horses, and only the two of them stepped forward, clasped their fists with both hands on the horse and said with a smile: "King Dong, get straight to the point, we are here to join you."

"Oh, are you sure?" Dong Ping smiled: "How can I believe the words of the official army?"

Xie Zhen said: "The king's words are wrong, our two brothers know your prestige in the rivers and lakes, and today Your Excellency came to meet us with three horses, and it is even more about the spirit of going to the meeting with a single sword, how can you not be admired by the people of the world?"

"And the court is mediocre and rejects loyalty, and we have been making meritorious contributions for several years, but we have ended up walking on thin ice, and we have been bullied by traitors and ministers in the court all day long!"

Dong Ping just kept smiling on the horse, clasped his hands to his chest and looked at the two people in front of him, without saying a word.

"Believe us, my lord!" Xie Bao also arched his hand and said: "We used to be Liangshan people, but that Song Gongming was willing to be a lackey of the imperial court, and our brothers only understood today that only by doing something by themselves is the most useful in this world!"

After speaking, Xie Zhen and Xie Bao jumped off the horse, knelt down directly on one knee, drew out a knife and cut it directly from the arm, clasped their fists with both hands, and said sincerely: "The two of us are willing to be born and die with King Dong, holding the whip and falling in the stirrup, there is nothing to say, if you violate this word, you will die under the sword!"

Looking at the bright red blood flowing all over the place, although Shi Bao and Yang Zaixing were well-informed, they couldn't help but admire it slightly in their hearts.

However, Dong Ping kept his face gloomy, and he didn't look at Xie Zhen and the others on the ground, and after looking at the ten thousand soldiers and horses behind them for a while, his eyes gradually stabilized.

"Bang!"

Dong Ping jumped off the horse, stared at Xie Zhen and Xie Bao for a while, and then helped the two of them up and laughed out loud.

"Why is King Dong laughing?" Xie Zhen asked suspiciously.

Dong Ping shook his head with a slight smile, took off the mask on his face, and said with a smile: "Two brothers, do you remember someone Dong?"

"Governor Dong, is that you?" Xie Zhen exclaimed in surprise, "How are you here?"

"It's a long story." Dong Ping explained to the two with a smile.

Just now, it wasn't that Dong Ping didn't believe that the two of them came to surrender, but it was just that the heart of defense was indispensable, and after checking the military configuration of the two just now, Dong Ping no longer doubted it at all.

Just because they brought all the soldiers and horses over, and there were no grain trucks to be seen in this flat land.

In other words, they completely abandoned their homes and businesses and rushed over as fast as they could.

At this time, after listening to Dong Ping's speech, Xie Zhen and the others also sighed with emotion: "Then Lu Yuanwai is a well-known hero in the rivers and lakes, so we should naturally give up our lives to help you, the governor!"

Dong Ping said with a smile: "Don't say that, in the future, we will be commensurate with each other, don't break the brotherhood."

The two were moved, and Xie Bao said again: "Big brother, I have already heard that the second general Shan Wei is preparing for an ambush in the Frost Wind Ridge, twenty miles away from Caozhou, how about we go and kill them by surprise in three days?"

Dong Ping smiled: "Yes, I have already learned that these two people are going to come to Wei to save Zhao, so I am investigating all the way, since the two brothers have found out, I will go and let them break this idea in advance!"

Xie Zhen and the others were overjoyed, and shouted loudly to the rear: "In the future, they will follow the Zhennan Marquis to do the way for the sky, but if there are those who do not follow, you can leave quickly!"

There are many old people in Liangshan in the army, and there are innocent people who were oppressed by the lawsuit, and when they heard that only less than a thousand people dispersed, Dong Ping gave each of the departed 20 taels of silver as the travel fee, and everyone was grateful and left with a thousand thanks.

Dong Ping called the military doctor who accompanied the army, bandaged Xie Zhen and Xie Bao briefly for a while, and then asked everyone to prepare to go.

"Big brother, then we rushed over three days later, and went to ambush and destroy them according to the time period that I and they originally agreed to meet?" Xie Zhen asked.

"Nope."

The corners of Dong Ping's mouth gradually brought a smile: "Rush over now, I want them to know what it means to be a "soldier, a trickster"!" ”

At the same time, thousands of officers and soldiers were digging rivers at the edge of the water.

"Hurry up!"

The young general stood on a boulder by the river and shouted: "Before nightfall today, be sure to dig up the water, and when the rainstorm arrives tomorrow, you can wipe out the Liangshan thieves in the nearby depression!"

Hearing him say this, the Overseers shouted even louder, picked up the whip and whipped it directly, and the soldiers immediately worked harder, lest they would not be able to complete their task.

"I'm talking about Dude." Another young man laughed and said, "If you burn them in the mountains according to what I do, no matter how many of his troops they have, they will have already turned into a pile of ashes, so why drive them into a depression to flood them with water?"

"Heh, I, Shan Tinggui, have always been strict in governing the army, how can I be so reckless as some people?"

Shan Tinggui smiled disdainfully: "Burning in the mountains, how can you prevent hurting your own people?" If thieves fire rockets against us, how are you going to deal with fire in the mountains? ”

"Also, Wen Shangshu wants us to wait for the reinforcements from the imperial court to arrive before fighting, you stunned young man can listen to it!"

"It's all as timid as you, what else is there to fight, just surrender!" The corners of the young man's mouth twitched: "I already expected that the southwest wind would be in three days, and then the fire would only become our sharp blade!"

"Come on, blow it!" Shan Tinggui laughed on the side and said, "Who lost the last time I acted and fought?"

The young man was furious: "Can you win or lose the exercise?" Soldier, treacherous ......"

Suddenly, a shout came from a distance, interrupting him abruptly.

"Report, General Wei Dingguo, the thunder carts and thunderbolt tubes piled up in the Frost Wind Ridge in the distance have all exploded, and now they have ignited a fire!"
