Chapter 332: The decisive battle is coming
"Anyway, sir, you have to be careful lately. People who lick blood from the knife edge are all willing to sacrifice their lives after they become famous, but in order to become famous, they will do anything! Li Hu reminded Hao Jingcheng in a low voice.
In fact, Li Hu also heard that Hao Jingcheng was a master, but looking at him as a scholar, he didn't look like a martial arts master, so he looked a little worried.
Hao Jingcheng nodded, and Li Hu said again: "The others are okay, after this battle, the enemies of the rebels have also come out, Niujiazhuang heard the night before that more than 100 people were dispatched to catch the two rebel leaders, and I heard that there are also people chasing and killing rebel fugitives near Shangqiu, and if they are caught, they will be burned to death." One of the rebel leaders, a pair of brothers, fled all the way to their hometown, and when they encountered a local family who had a grudge against them, they gathered people to besiege them on the road. ”
"Anyway, since the establishment of the rebels, there are many enemies they have provoked, and there are many people who want to take advantage of the opportunity to fall into the well to make credit, which has reduced some of our pressure!" Li Biao answered at this time.
"Anyway, it's a fryer over there in Shenxian anyway. This is the wall falling down and everyone pushing, once they see their bad luck, those who have been wronged will be avenged. Li Hu said with a smile.
"That's it, it's already miserable to provoke Brother Hao......" Li Biao also said in compliance.
On the side of the carriage, several people laughed heartlessly when they talked about these things on the rivers and lakes.
At the same time, in the camp tent set up at the foot of a mountain not very far from here, Xi Maijun was trembling when he heard the news of the report from Xi Zuo, and the situation on the battlefield was really completely different from what he expected.
In the days that followed, the rebels took a turn for the worse.
At the same time, the green forest shocks caused by the rout of the rebels are still flooding little by little.
The army by the carriage set out for camp, and the final battle with the rebels was reached, and it was time for the decisive battle, and everything was encircled.
After the day had passed, it was just dawn, and groups of figures marched through the dark mountains. Beyond the foothills, the wind was blowing, the scenery stretched out in front of the eyes, and between the cols below the view, a small river meandered by, and the sparse spots of light formed the outline of a small county town.
"Brother Zheng." Someone came up next to him, it was Xi Maijun, his face was a little haggard at this time, and it could be seen that these days were really a torment for him.
"It's finally here, after turning around for so long, they must not have imagined ......," the killer Zheng Xiu whispered.
When the wind blows through the mountains and fields, when the sky reveals a slight fish belly white, a slightly cool white mist lingers in the air, someone outside the small county town goes out to carry water, on the road, a group of more than ten people of the merchant traveler came to this side, and when they passed through the city gate, they were interrogated.
A moment later, on the tower of the small county town, someone suddenly warned that at the city gate, the merchant suddenly drew his sword, and the blood splashed in the early morning fog, and between the foothills on both sides, the sea of people descended like a wild dragon.
After leading the officers and soldiers around for a few days, the rebels shook a shot, turned to the east, took Feng County, which had only about 6,000 households, and killed hundreds of people from large families in the county under the slogan of avenging their brothers, set a fire, and then fled north of the city.
Under the circumstance that the entire strategic situation in the military state was constantly tightening, the operation at the tactical level successfully gave the local officers and soldiers and Hao Jingcheng and others a sharp dismount.
The rebels may not dare to slaughter a county town, but for the government, this is also a deterrent posture that cannot be ignored.
The next day, the rebels appeared outside Pingxian, probably thinking that the cost of capturing the county seat was too great, so they waved a shot and left, and these two gestures successfully nailed the troops at several points near the local official army.
Taking advantage of the hesitation of the local officers and soldiers at this moment, more than 3,000 people resolutely turned back, crossed the mountains and mountains, and swooped down towards their ultimate goal on this night!
The decisive battle is coming.
The crowd crossed the mountains quickly and silently, and when the sun set, they stopped in the sparse woods among the mountains. After a short camp, the atmosphere was solemn.
The killer Zheng Xiu sat by the stone under the tree, and began to eat dry food with clear water, looking at the sky and the surrounding terrain. Beside him, his men gathered together, eating, whispering, some wiping their blades, but no one made much noise.
Not many people have been clearly informed about this turn of events, where they are going, but in fact, the strange and solemn atmosphere has enveloped the entire team with the abnormal actions of the past two days. In the whispers of people, everyone is mentally prepared to take advantage of the big thing now.
People are not ruthless, and they can't stand steadily. In the current ranks of the rebels, there are many people who are willing to fight for their lives, especially in the last few days, the purpose is clear, and the transition is clean, so that everyone can regain the pride of the rebels at the beginning.
While many things are not transparent these days, the signals from above indicate that everything is going well.
Take the county seat, drag the officers and soldiers around, and make them clumsy. During this period, what is the "big job" is for, but it is secondary.
In short, the posture of "if you are not afraid, we will be more ruthless", as well as the accuracy and efficiency in a few short days, stirred up morale, and made people faintly feel that a big war was coming.
As for what it is, even the killer Zheng Xiu is not very clear at this time.
Since the departure of Ping County, Li Lei and others led the team, running fast, the purpose is quite clear, it was originally estimated that it was to take the army and air defense of Hexian, and it may even be to disturb the pace of the local officials and troops after taking advantage of the gap to enter the state city, do a dangerous fight, but halfway, the route is faintly wrong.
As a leader, you can always get something from the words of others, and in the team, there are occasionally people who are familiar with the surrounding terrain and mention the places they have passed by.
The killer Zheng Xiu drew a picture in his heart, trying to piece together the impression of the surroundings, and a leader next to him came over and greeted him softly, he responded a few words, and a thought suddenly rose in his heart.
He turned his head and looked in the direction where Li Lei, Xi Maijun and the others might be, although the shadows of the trees were sparse, the figures were longing. According to the rules at this time, everyone consciously maintains the gathering of people under their command, except for occasional contact, and will not walk around.
"We are here now, only two ridges away from General Ridge, and we can't make a fire. Fortunately, everyone also felt this thing to some extent, and with psychological preparation, victory or defeat depends on this time......" Under the tree, Li Lei, Xi Maijun and others held a small map and pointed softly.
"I thought too much, and when they couldn't react, this kind of thing can only be resolved quickly......"
