Section 566 The choice of fate of the multi-party contest

Bi Yingyuan, who has rejuvenated his bloody responsibility, and You Yuanming, who dares to fight, are cute and rough people, and the second junior general of the dynasty Ma Han estimates that the two generals will save people with righteousness, if they are not so unlucky, with their skills and excellent protective armor, they should not die so easily in the hands of bandits.

They knew that Zhao Yue had gone to rescue the Qilin brothers of the Liu family, and would lead Zhu Biao and Zhu Wannian to the middle camp. Bi You Er will go to the left and right camps, and it is unlikely that he will encounter the two most terrible people of the Zhu family.

As for those thieves who are fierce to the weak and afraid of the strong, the two generals are divided into Zhu Long or Zhu Hu, who are led by the left and right battalions, and no one can stop the two generals who are fast and capable.

The two ordered the entire army to retreat to the east.

This order caused a wave of surprise and slander.

An older man who disobeyed the command of the young second junior general unceremoniously questioned loudly in public: "Dare to ask the commander, why is it to the east?" ”

Another local man tilted his head and pouted and questioned: "I said two adults, you are outsiders, and you probably haven't figured out the local geography." Qingzhou Mansion is in the northwest of Taohua Mountain. Let's withdraw to Fucheng, not to the north, at least to the west, through Qingfeng Village to respond, this is the right direction to go back. East? Are we going to Weizhou Mansion? ”

His questioning contained a little teasing and ridicule, which was very much in line with the loose and unobtrusive military atmosphere that had been formed by Qiu Ba in the interior of the Song army for a long time, which caused a burst of laughter among the soldiers who were demoralized and uneasy.

The order was resisted, and he was slapped in public, and Wang Dynasty Mahan was not annoyed.

After the two glanced at each other, Wang Chao rode his horse to the head of the local capital, looked at the man pressing the knife and tightened his body vigilantly to guard against being killed, and said loudly with a smile: "We fought with the Peach Blossom Mountain bandits, but don't forget that there are three mountain bandits in Qingzhou. Although these three bandits do not agree, and there is no coalition to fight with us this time, the interests and goals of dealing with our officers and troops are highly consistent. I dare say that the Aomine bandits must be lying in ambush somewhere near the north where it is convenient to kill us, waiting for us to retreat. Even if we have a large number of people and a large number of troops, the thieves of Qingfeng Mountain are not afraid. But what if the Erlong Mountain Bandit is also ambushed somewhere, such as waiting to calculate us on the way to the safety of Qingfeng Village as soon as possible? ”

These words made the elder who was the first to provoke his head stunned and speechless.

The local capital head had the usual slippery and playful expression on his face with the mainland, and his eyes flickered with panic, obviously frightened and afraid.

The word spread. When the soldiers thought that they were intercepted and killed by the powerful Erlong Mountain bandits, who had many soldiers and generals, they couldn't help but shudder. Many people were frightened and frightened.

If it is said that Qingfeng Village has few thieves and weak skills, it is not terrible, and if it is intercepted on the way back, it can be killed. But if you encounter the ambush of the bandits of Erlong Mountain, it is a bandit and robber with thousands of cavalry and tens of thousands, and the thousands of people and horses here crash into the net on the way back, which is a dead end, not to mention the ordinary soldiers who run on two legs, it is this battle that shows the two commanders of the Dynasty Mahan who are extremely brave and ride on war horses that are convenient for escape, and it is difficult to break out of the military formation composed of countless cavalry and infantry to survive.

Once surrounded by tens of thousands of bandits, these people present are tired and panicked and have no will to fight, and lack the commander and fierce generals to lead the killing, how can they have combat effectiveness? Don't die in a bunch?

Just think of the scene of thousands of arrows shooting overwhelmingly, thousands of bandit cavalry chasing and killing, and people falling like harvested straws.

Thinking about it again, he hurried away with the good wish of returning to the safe city of Fucheng as soon as possible to rest, but like a sheep falling into the mouth of a tiger, he was dazed and did not know that he had entered the ambush circle, and he was violently attacked while walking, he was caught off guard and helpless, and he was full of arrows, and his head was easily cut off by the thief riding and waving a bright steel knife, and the horse was like mud, and the officers and soldiers were even more frightened and uneasy from top to bottom.

Taking a step back, even if the powerful and terrifying Erlongshan bandits were not involved, they would have to die if they were ambushed by Qingfeng Village.

Who knows whose life Lord Yama wants to take this time? Who's the damn hapless on the way back?

Even if only one dies, the one who is afraid of death is likely to be himself.

Besides, the bandits of Qingfeng Village may not be as weak as the legend. Aren't the brave and invincible Chief Qin and the highly skilled Huang Dujian planted in the hands of this gang of robbers?

Seeing this, Wang Chao restrained the soldiers, and smiled at the local Nadu, who had shrunk and couldn't adjust his temper, and said: "You are very courageous, and you can still say such funny naughty words in the current dangerous and tense state, which has eliminated a lot of anxiety and boosted everyone's morale. Not bad. However, "

But as soon as the two words came out, the smile on his face suddenly closed, his eyes became cold, and he exuded a fierce aura and fierceness, and said sharply: "During the Great War, at a critical moment, arbitrarily denying the command of the superiors and shaking the morale of the army is a capital crime according to military law." ”

Listening to the previous praise, Nadu couldn't help but show a smug look on his face, and said in his heart: "The little young commander is afraid that an old soldier like me will make trouble, and I am afraid that I will not be able to control the army and curry favor in disguise, and I hope I will cooperate." ”

Immediately hearing the words that followed, he obviously felt the strong killing intent issued by the dynasty, the smugness on his face couldn't help but stiffen, he subconsciously took a few steps back in fear, pressed the knife tightly on his waist and was ready to pull it out at any time, his eyes were staring at the dynasty, and he was highly vigilant that although he was young but obviously led the troops very cunning and experienced commander, he suddenly waved his knife and killed him to establish his authority with the right military method.

In fact, if the dynasty really wanted to clean him up, he didn't know whether he should resist or flee. His reaction was entirely instinctive to save his life.

In the army, if the superior wants to clean up whom, the subordinates dare to resist and escape.

Even if it is avoided in the present, it will only be more unlucky to settle accounts in the future.

Wang Dynasty didn't make a move, only stared at him coldly and sneered: "Don't panic. “

"I don't think you are a deserter, you are also a man, there are old and young people in the family who are still waiting for you to support, and you are a first-time offender. I'm not going to kill you this time. I only hope that you will keep in mind your military identity and military law, there is no child's play in the army, and you will take care of your mouth in the future, so as not to be happy on your lips and lose your head. ”

Nadu was so frightened that he was sweating profusely, and when he heard the verdict, he didn't have to die, he breathed a sigh of relief, his face was embarrassed and embarrassed, but he knew that he couldn't do it, so he quickly thanked him for not killing.

Wang Chao nodded slightly, but continued to suppress the resistance and power of the army represented by the capital to himself and Ma Han's command of the whole army, and said: "I am so young but I can be a commander, but you are dozens of years old but you are just a small soldier, this is the ability gap."

Shangguan's vision, the information that Shangguan has mastered, and the depth and breadth of the things he considers are beyond what you can imagine a few little army leaders who don't know a lot of words? In wartime, how can subordinates arbitrarily deny the judgments and decisions of superiors? You say that you know your mistakes, and you can really change them. ”

The head became more and more ashamed and embarrassed, and he was ashamed of himself, and wanted to be angry and retort or even resist, but he was afraid to do so. Because the words of the dynasty have won the approval of many soldiers.

Mahan glanced at the army and said loudly, "I know that some of you disobey the young me and the king's command. It doesn't matter. Nor do we force you to obey commands. If you have your own ideas, you can choose your own way back. Those who want to live, who believe in us, and who are willing to obey orders, go with us. Right now. Right away. ”

So saying, the two of them turned their horses and headed east.

The men's men immediately followed. Then a large number of soldiers followed.

This is the psychological effect of people naturally conforming from the herd. It is often referred to as the goat effect in management.

At this time, not to mention that the leader is reasonable, it is not very reliable, and the vast majority of subordinate people will instinctively believe that the leader is wiser and more responsible than themselves, and they will follow at a loss.

The army moved quickly to the east. Only a very small number of people, led by their own leaders or trusted people, choose to act alone on their own terms.

The two of them really didn't care at all, and did not bring the troops back to kill them to punish disobedience to the command.

Looking back, those officers and ordinary soldiers who boldly abandoned the camp and fled early when they heard the news.

The vast majority of the more than 2,000 people chose to flee to Qingfeng Village first.

Qingfeng Village is guarded by a very small number of troops under the threat of the three mountain strongmen, but it can always stand unbroken, and there is a famous Xiao Li Guanghuarong. is also because of the proximity of fleeing Qingfeng Village.

Running all the way, quickly away from the dangerous military camp where the sound of fighting was earth-shattering, these people saw that no one was chasing and killing, they all breathed a sigh of relief and relaxed their tense nerves, glad that they were smart and clever, and they were not afraid of military law, and they fled decisively early, so that they could get the easy life in front of them.

As for after escaping back?

The law does not hold the public accountable. Don't be afraid.

Besides, the officials of Fucheng can't be sure that they are deserters who run away without a fight. Some are excuses to cover up.

If you do it well, you might even be able to confuse a battle merit reward.

Those fools who don't know how to flee quickly are going to die in vain in the chaos. Even if he can live, even if his life is big, I'm afraid that it will be too difficult to come back without missing arms and legs.

These deserters quickly gathered on the way, more and more people, and finally gathered nearly 2,000 people, under the leadership of the fleeing generals, commanders and other officers, they marched more and more confidently and briskly towards Qingfeng Village.

I was too nervous by Vice General Bi tonight to sleep well. When you arrive at the safe Qingfeng Village, you have to rest and sleep beautifully, and you have to let Hua Rong entertain yourself, these heroes who have worked hard from the front line, and have a good meal and drink. It's not okay not to be satisfied.

I heard that Qingfeng Village has gathered many wealthy people under the protection of Huarong, and the village is very rich, there are a lot of chickens, ducks, cattle and sheep, and there are countless money, and there is a shortage of oil and water.......

The more the deserters think about it, the more beautiful it becomes. Some are greedy and bold, and even have the desire to get rich, and their hearts are excited, full of energy and impulse.

If you take advantage of Hua Rong's unpreparedness to attack and kill Hua Rong, with so many people, I am afraid that I will not be able to clean up the defenders of Qingfeng Village?

When the time comes, the Qingfeng Village will be blocked, and the people will be killed and robbed, and pushed to the Sanshan robbers. Hehe, grandpa can not only make a fortune, but I am afraid that he can also pretend to be a thief with his head for his huge military exploits....... this matter must be carefully calculated.

Officers with a heart begin to conspire. Murderous and sinister laughter rings out from time to time, and there is a growing trend.

But suddenly, a shrill gong sounded in the dim darkness of the sky.

Immediately, a piece of torches lit up in the four fields, countless swords, sword shadows, and figures with bows and arrows shook in the light of the torches, and many war horses neighed and ran out of the darkness under the nervous excitement. Countless robbers are scattered in this area like life-seeking demons that suddenly emerge from hell.

There is an ambush?

All the deserters were shocked, and the expressions of pride and ferocious greed flowing on their faces froze for a moment.

In a panic, I suddenly heard someone shouting like thunder: "You defeated soldiers who deserted from the army, listen, grandpa is a good man in Erlong Mountain." You are surrounded, and you don't want to die under the arrows, horseshoe, and knives, so you all honestly lay down your weapons and surrender with your hands held high. Otherwise, hum ........"

This cold snort is not eerie and ferocious. Frightened, the deserters trembled.

It seemed that the threat was still powerful, and at this time, the sky was also shouted by this person, and the sky became much brighter and clearer, and the sun seemed to be rising faster, and the vision was a little better. This is, of course, an illusion, a natural phenomenon in which the sun is about to rise. But the deserters, caught in boundless fear, became more and more aware of the fierceness and horror of the robbers who surrounded them.

The robbers who were ambushed here were indeed Erlongshan people, and the leaders of the team were Wu Yong and Ren Sen, the Shenji military masters.

Even if Chao Gai and others could not guess the prefect Murong Yanda's plan to suppress the bandits, and did not detect the news of this conspiracy, they could also feel that the officers and soldiers were afraid that there was a great insidiousness, not only for Taohua Mountain, but also with the intention of exterminating the three mountains.

Chao Gai has no good impression of the uncle and nephew of the Zhu family who do all kinds of evil in Peach Blossom Mountain, and he has no good impression of the Zhu family who is arrogant and domineering in Dulonggang, based in Qingzhou, Erlongshan has always had no contact and friendship with Peach Blossom Mountain, but he just abides by the moral principle of non-cannibalism and is safe and sound. When it came to the battle in front of him, Peach Blossom Mountain was the first to be attacked, and Chao Gai naturally didn't have the slightest intention and motivation to reach out to help.

The development of Erlongshan has encountered a bottleneck so far, limited to the population base of Qingzhou and the potential of the material that can be provided, there are three incompatible bandit forces to divide and enjoy the limited benefits of the local area, and compete for the source of troops and influence, it has become a big problem, Erlongshan wants to break through the bottleneck, and must try to solve the unfavorable situation of the coexistence of the three mountains, which seriously hinders the further rapid development and growth.

This method is the simplest, most effective, and most conducive to not damaging Erlong Mountain's reputation in the green forest, which is to use the strength of officers and soldiers to eliminate the two villages of Taohua Qingfeng and clear up the living space for Erlong Mountain.

Chao Gai, Wu Yong, and Gongsun Sheng, the three giants have already calculated this, and they are waiting for the officers and soldiers to do it, and I wish that the Peach Blossom Mountain thief Kou can fight with the officers and soldiers to fight to the death and lose both, and it is best to wish the family the four evils to die in battle, and the four wishes will be punished, and there will be four fewer scourges in the world. Peach Blossom Mountain was destroyed, the officers and soldiers were also heavily damaged and unable to fight again, Erlongshan was less threatened by the officers and soldiers, and Qingzhou Road was also a strong opponent to compete for interests and territory that hindered the more rapid development of Erlongshan.

Erlongshan will not participate in the battle of Peach Blossom Mountain, but it will not stand idly by and participate in cleaning up the officers and soldiers to pick up the benefits.

The opportunity for military advisor Wu to show his skills had finally arrived, and the whole person was so excited that he ordered the spies to closely reconnoiter the movements of the war, plan, and discuss with Chao Gai Gongsun Sheng, Ren Sen, Kong Hou and other major leaders of the decision-making level how to get the most benefits from it.

Where did these deserters flee? (To be continued.) )
