Wu Wenming, the magistrate of Xin'an County, and his personal staff, Master Gao Chang, want to talk about how to collect money, how to increase distribution, how to set up a clever apportionment, how to increase fire consumption, how to play tricks in words, and how to engage in some power schemes, that is all good. It can be said that it is outstanding. But where have you ever seen this bloody battlefield scene?

Hearing Chen Tianhua simply talk about what he did that day with the people of the villages and regiments of the five major families, the two of them were frightened and excited, just like a young child looking at the firecrackers in the hands of adults, and wanted to hear the following, but also afraid of the loud sound and firelight.

"And what about the rest of the war?"

Master Gao could hear it, and couldn't help but ask Chen Tianhua in his Shaoxing accent.

"Later?!"

Chen Tianhua glanced at this master, who looked like a treacherous villain.

"Toot toot!"

There was another terrible and sharp whistle, and the third column of firecrackers stepped past their comrades who had just cast firearms, and stopped at a distance of only twenty paces from the group drillers.

As soon as they picked up the firecrackers in their hands, and before the commander gave the order to fire, an unexpected situation happened!

"Ahh

A rattan player, facing the mouth of the black hole of the fire gun, looking at the brothers and nephews in front of him who fell on the ground like a straw bundle after harvesting a paddy field, the spirit and will finally could not withstand the tremendous pressure, and became the first domino to cause the collapse. He dropped the rattan card in his hand and brandished his long knife. Turn and flee backwards.

As if it had a powerful contagious effect, the rattan players threw down the rattan cards that were considered bad luck in their hands, brandished their long knives, and pounced on those who might stop them from escaping!

"Fire!"

Behind them, a distant but clear voice came, and excitement seemed to be audible in the coldness.

A dense burst of projectiles rushed up from behind the people, exposing their backs to the firecrackers' group practice, and they were knocked to the ground quite a bit. This scene accelerated the collapse speed of the five major group training.

"Hold on!"

"Steady!"

"Don't quit! Which back. Lao Tzu opened an ancestral hall to come out of his clan! ”

(This is a harsh punishment in regions where clans are strong.) Opening an ancestral hall and leaving the clan means that you will no longer be a member of this family, and once you are punished like this, you can imagine how difficult it is to make a living. ）

The leaders of the five great families were under the escort of their own soldiers. He shouted hoarsely. Trying to stop this collapse from continuing to spread.

"Hold on! The uncles chasing the thieves are almost there! ”

I don't know if it's because the eyes of the seventh young master of the Deng family are sharp, or if he is deliberately using such news to appease people's hearts. Hearing that the reinforcements chasing from the north were about to arrive, the group drillers, who were still a little panicked and ready to move, quieted down a little.

But only in a moment!

Three columns of muskets struck, and the pikemen on both sides immediately swooped down from the east and west flanks in tacit understanding. In front of the formation of the firecrackers, there were no more than ten steps away from the group training that was already showing signs of collapse.

"Kill!"

Under the order of the team officer, the pikemen, who were also lined up in three columns, held five-meter-long mourning guns, with fire in their eyes, pounced on the regimental training in front of them!

If the rattan players do not collapse, the team trainers can also rely on the rattan players to start a battle with the pikemen against the pikemen, or the rattan players can cooperate with their own pikemen to flank the group of pikemen who are rushing towards them.

However, it's too late!

The rattan players were scattered by the firecrackers, not only exposing their hearts to the Nanzhong army, but also hindering their own pikemen from stepping forward to fight against the spearmen of the Nanzhong army. Hehe, if they still have the courage to dare to step forward.

The long-distance marching and fighting for dozens of miles in a row consumed the body of the Nanzhong Army to the extreme, but the harsh training and almost cruel military discipline on weekdays made up for such weaknesses very well, on the contrary, in the face of the enemy who was about to collapse, these things accumulated on weekdays stimulated people's potential, and in the shouting, the pikemen rushed forward with their spears!

The shouts, like thunder in spring, rolled over people's heads!

The dull and creepy "poof" sound made by the tip of the gun piercing into the human body rang in people's ears.

The five-foot-long spear head is the most sharp, but it is the face of the regular army wearing three layers of armor, and it can also break through the armor in such a face-to-face fight, let alone face this group of regimental training with almost no armor on their bodies?

Seeing that the pikemen were harvesting their own lives almost effortlessly, the team trainers could no longer hold on. Open an ancestral hall out of my clan? That's a later thing, it's a big deal that Lao Tzu went to the South Seas to fish the world, and he can't die here now!

People pushed, grabbed the leaders, shouted to each other, pulled their close families, and fled to the east and west. There are also those who are not very bright-minded, and they rush to the south.

"Seven less! I'll take people to the front to set up an ambush and stop this group of pirates! The leader of the Peng family whipped his horse twice on the buttocks as he fled west with his team.

"Traitor! You go to the bullshit ambush set up in the west! ”

Deng Qishao scolded angrily in his heart, and also ran east with the remnants of the Deng family, giving way to the south!

A huge gap appeared on the road in front of them, and the soldiers were fine, but the homeless people couldn't help but burst into tears, even if they could continue to live!

"Quick! Hurry up! ”

From time to time, the shouts of the soldiers of the Nanzhong Army, who were the leaders of the displaced people, were heard in the procession.

While running forward, the homeless people from time to time smashed the wooden sticks in their hands and the tattered clothes wrapped in stones and broken bricks on the ground with hatred, and the group training of the five major families with constant shouts and wails, and the tough homeless people, rushed out of the team, waving the wooden sticks in their hands to chase and kill the group training that fled slowly.

A group drill was hit in the back by a raindrop-like stone flying behind him, and the huge pain made him slow down his escape step slightly. But in this short moment, another rain of stones flew behind him. Smash him to the ground!

Several homeless people pounced like mad tigers, the sticks and stones in their hands flew wildly, and in the blink of an eye, the group was smashed into a puddle of flesh.

On the other side, a short homeless man bit a group of people who was still holding a rattan card in his hand and holding a long knife and ran away, and the group of people panted and looked back at the homeless person's eyes that were red because of blood congestion, and couldn't help but feel more and more fear in his heart, and wanted to speed up and join the team. However, according to the laws of the devil. The more you don't want something to happen. It's bound to happen.

A spear that had been discarded by others lay on the ground, and the group training who was running wildly was mixed by this spear, and flew out diagonally, and the long knife and rattan card in his hand were thrown aside.

The short outcasts who were chasing. Seeing this, he immediately slammed the wooden stick in his hand on the back of the group training. A mouthful of blood spurted out of Tuanlian's mouth. I think it hurt my internal organs.

"Mi! Mi me! ”

When the group saw the short homeless man pick up the long knife he had thrown on the ground, he couldn't help but plead, hoping that this man would show mercy. Let yourself go.

"My lord told us that if others don't mess with me, I will definitely not do anything bad to others! But," said the short outcast, smirking, "you are going to take our lives today, so don't blame me for asking for your life in exchange for military merit!" ”

The knife fell, and blood splattered the short man's head.

He held up the long knife he had just captured, and couldn't help but exclaim, "Good knife!" ”

Seeing that the rattan card was still in good condition, it was a pity to discard it, so he wanted to take it together, but he held the rattan card with a knife in one hand and the rattan card in the other, and he was afraid that he would be accidentally injured by his own family. With an idea, he untied the leg of the slain group, passed through the handle on the rattan card, tied a cross knot on his chest, carried a human head, carried a long knife, and reflexively chased after the team.

"Yellow armor is long, yellow armor is long! I cut one, and this is a captured knife and rattan card! ”

Seeing the leader of his team, he couldn't help but come forward to show off his achievements.

"Okay, you boy! Brother Mai, this is a military feat! ”

"So, is it better for me to eat dinner in the evening?"

"Just kidding! Those who have military merits eat naturally differently! You are beheaded and captured, two credits! ”

Hearing this, the Mai brothers couldn't help but grin very happily.

"It's better to make military achievements!"

According to the regulations of the Nanzhong Army, auxiliary personnel during the war, such as Minfu and Zhuangding, if they participate in the battle and have military merits, they will be treated according to the first-duty personnel of the Nanzhong Army and the standard of military merit commendation.

Behind the dense crowd, Chen Tianhua grabbed the reins and looked at the dozens of carts behind him, Deng Xianda, who rushed over before, took away dozens of carts full of grain and baggage, and the vehicles left behind were covered with gold and silver, although they were hungry and cold, but they were also very important.

"Blow the trumpet! The firefighter is back! The pikemen continue to guard the wings! ”

Ordered the musketeers to release at least fifty paces of alert in the east, west, and north directions in a unit, and ordered the pikemen to escort on both sides of the road. In the north, although a large group of men and horses came all the way in the distance, after meeting with the group training that had fled back from the east and west, those who were chasing and killing also slowed down, and there were faint bursts of cries.

"It's time for us to go back, too!"

Chen Tianhua put away the binoculars in his hand, turned his horse's head and shouted to the people around him, "Brothers, go south, go back!" ”

Everyone shouted in unison, slowly escorted the team, and retreated south all the way. Behind him were the people of the five major families chasing unhurriedly, but they always maintained a distance of hundreds of steps. Caught up on the battlefield of Fang Cai, and the earth-shattering cries broke out in the chasing team, and there was a commotion in the crowd at one point, and some people tried to chase south, but they were severely stopped by the old man in the clan.

"Don't think there are enough dead people in our family?!"

The young people in the five major families could only watch with hatred as the Nanzhong Army team in the distance slowly disappeared from view, collecting the corpses and the wounded and not mentioning it.

Chen Tianhua led everyone to push and pull, and crossed the dozens of carts over the Butterfly Valley and entered the boundary of the Kowloon Peninsula.

At this time, the Kowloon Walled City was not the famous lawless place, it was an outpost subordinate to the Great Pengwei. There were dozens of officers and soldiers stationed, but it was only an earthen enclosure, and in terms of fortification, it was far less solid than that of those walled villages.

There were only a few pitiful copper cannons on the fence, which were covered with turquoise patina, and a few Ming soldiers were lying on the ground of the fence wall in fear, looking at the official road through the arrows on the battlements.

"Listen to the brothers on the fence!"

A few thick voices shouted there under the fence wall.

"Let's just pass by here, and the well water doesn't interfere with the river water! It's a friend, just get out of the way! If you want your wife to remarry, your son will change her surname. My father and mother have no one to support their old age. Just come out! ”

The general in the Kowloon Walled City looked at the dozens of people under him, and compared with those people outside, they were slightly better than those homeless people.

"Lose that mother! You haven't paid us for a few months?! Why are we going to sell this life?! ”

He exchanged glances with a few confidants and cronies a little. We understand each other.

His henchmen pushed and pulled the soldiers off the fence. A few people were left watching the wind and whistle from above.

"Good man! Let's make friends today! If you want to pass, you will have to do it! Just don't embarrass your brother. Don't go for it! ”

Listening to the general words, Deng Xianda, the battalion officer who led the team to wait in line outside the walled city, couldn't help but sneer. "Count your dog's acquaintance!" Reined in the horse's head and whispered an order to a captain beside him, "Quick! Urge those strong men to hurry up and get through here, and when you get to the beach, there will be a sailor's brother there to answer you! ”

"You! Hurry up and lead people north to meet Lord Chen and his party, they were blocked by the vicious dogs of the five major families, I'm afraid it will be a little difficult! ”

After explaining these things to his subordinates, Deng Xianda jumped off the horse, unloaded the saddle of the war horse, and took out a money bag from the mattress. I checked it and there were about twenty or thirty silver dollars in it.

"Go, hand it over to the guy who talks in the city, and say that our Nanzhong Army has invited them to tea!" He handed the money bag to a captain beside him who had always been known for his strength.

"Okay!" Although I am unwilling to act like this, this is not a typical tiger falling into Pingyang and being bullied by dogs! However, the commander still obeyed the order.

"Brother in the city, catch it! We're in a hurry, we can't invite our brothers to drink! A little money, invite the brothers to tea! ”

As he spoke, the long arm waved, and the money bag flew over the battlement in a beautiful arc and landed in front of the hand's feet.

Counting the silver dollars one by one, when he was extremely happy, the thousands of people led by Chen Tianhua carried dozens of carts, and they came to the Kowloon Walled City in the same dust, looking at the mighty crowd under the city, and laughed proudly at the people under him, "Do you see it, you still have to listen to me, right?!" There are not 10,000 people but 8,000 people outside, dozens of us, a few bad guns, a few broken knives, don't we go out and die in vain?! Where is this? ”

He shook the silver dollar in his hand at the crowd.

"Lao Tzu, I'm not the kind of person who sees money! After a while, when they are gone, they will divide the money among the brothers, and each of them will have a reward of 200 Wen! Double the small flag! The total flag is doubled again! ”

On the beach, the sailors who came from Hong Kong Island used the guns on the ship to draw a safe place for everyone here, and when they saw the guns lined up on the beach, all the veterans of the South China Army put their hearts in their stomachs. At sunset, a butt sat on the beach.

"Brothers have worked hard!"

"Brothers have worked hard!"

The two groups of people met each other and said their hard work to each other, and some of the soldiers of the South Central Army couldn't stop crying. In just one day, more than 100 people have been killed, and nearly half of them have been wounded, which is almost unprecedented in previous battles.

"Lose that mother! When have we ever suffered such a big loss?! ”

On the beach, while organizing the troops to cross the sea, and ordering the troops and displaced people waiting to cross the sea, to use the food brought by the cooking car and the sailor to have dinner on the beach, on the beach filled with the aroma of food, suddenly Chen Tianhua became furious!

"Liang Kuan! Beam width! ”

He shouted on the beach looking for his guard officer.

"The subordinates are here!"

"Have you eaten?!"

"My lord, my brothers have all had dinner!"

"Did the war horse feed the fodder?"

"Before the brothers eat, the war horses have been fed and drunk!"

"Do you have the guts to go with me again?!"

"My lord, are you going to fight Jiqingwei?!"

Hearing Chen Tianhua and Liang Kuan's simple questions and answers, a group of sergeants from the Nanzhong Army immediately came up next to them, and even the homeless people who were sitting around and gobbling up dinner pricked up their ears to listen to the movement.

"Fight is a must fight! But not tonight, the brothers have to go back to the island to take a breath, recuperate, sharpen their knives and guns, and then go to settle accounts with these earth dogs! ”

As he spoke, Liang Kuan had already assembled his subordinates, a guard of less than forty people. Although after a day of fighting and bloody, these guards, after a simple full meal, and after a short rest, they were still full of energy and murderous spirit.

"Come with me and go to Xin'an County!"

Chen Tianhua's meaning is very simple, "Since the matter started from Tai Po, then I will still decide Tai Po!" ”

Listening to what Chen Tianhua said, he couldn't help but let Wu Wenming Zhixian gasp, today during the day from the Shenzhen River to the Butterfly Valley, he saw almost a thousand corpses, of which more than 100 corpses were holding knives and guns, wearing armor, it was the corpse of the pirate in the mouth of the five families, and it was the soldier of this Lord Chen!

"Wu County, please rest assured, what a certain family promised you before still counts, and it is the five families who are enemies of our Nanzhong Army, and what does it have to do with the county? Don't worry, we said 10,000 silver dollars before, as long as Tai Po is in my hands, the 10,000 silver dollars will naturally be adults! The matter between me and the five families, please know that the county just sits in the county seat, and pretends not to know! ”

After sending Chen Tianhua away, Wu Wenming suddenly collapsed on the steps, looking up at the moonlight in spring, and couldn't help but sigh, I am afraid that this moon will be stained red with blood from tonight! (To be continued......)
