Chapter 84 Raiders Huanglongzhai 3

The momentum of these bandits has been plundered by Goode, and now when they hear that Goode has recruited them to become officers and soldiers, although they intend to move, no one will be the first to surrender. Goode knew that Huanglongzhai didn't need other places, and that their power was now stronger than that of the nearby county town, and he also knew that it was impossible to make them lay down their arms with this sentence.

He continued: "I know that you are afraid of being retaliated against by Huanglongzhai after surrendering, after all, Huanglongzhai is so powerful, a few years ago, it was able to subdue the surrounding county towns with the power of a cottage. But now you don't have to worry, what I want to tell you is that as long as you surrender, this county will be able to keep you safe. Do you know where the soldiers you fought just now are? ”

All the bandits looked at each other, not knowing why Goode was asking the soldiers of the Ruishi Battalion where they were from.

Goode didn't expect them to be able to answer, he paused for a moment, and said, "You must have heard of the place where they belong, that is Jinniu Mountain, and these soldiers are all members of the unclothed army on Jinniu Mountain. You may not know that now that the unclothed army has all been recruited into official troops, and the more than 8,000 horses belonging to the unclothed army are now concentrated at the foot of the mountain, plus the 3,000 county soldiers brought by this county, we can completely break through Huanglongzhai, and you, as the first batch of people to surrender, can guarantee the safety of everyone. ”

When the people in the right battalion of Huanglongzhai heard the news, they were all shocked, but they didn't expect that the unclothed army of Jinniu Mountain, which they often heard their three masters mention, had surrendered to the official army. Although everyone didn't think too highly of the Clothless Army, they all knew that the strength of the Clothless Army was second only to Huanglongzhai within a hundred miles of the Clothless Army, but they didn't expect them to become officials and soldiers silently.

This is the rhetoric that Gu De thought of temporarily, and what Zeng Yu expressed to him originally meant that when necessary, it could be made public that the unclothed army was a force belonging to Anping County. But Goode had read a saying in the book, that is, everyone had a herd mentality, so he changed his rhetoric so that the bandits in Huanglongzhai would be more likely to persuade themselves to surrender to the official army.

Sure enough, the bandit who had just picked up a life from the knife of the soldiers of the Rui Shi Battalion suddenly threw away the weapon in his hand and stood up, shouting, "I am willing to surrender!" Then he quickly walked towards the soldiers of the Ruishi Battalion, as if he was afraid that the leader of the Yellow Dragon Village behind him would stop him.

Sure enough, as soon as he took a step, the person who looked like a leader of Huanglongzhai picked up the knife in his hand and was about to chase him and kill him to stop him from surrendering. Goode ordered the soldiers of the Raiders to get out of the way for him to walk, while the other Warriors nearby drove towards the Petty Leader.

The man came to Goode, turned around and shouted to the other party: "Brothers, if we don't surrender today, it is estimated that it will be a dead end." We are just trying to survive in Huanglongzhai, and we don't want these centurions or centurions to be able to eat and drink spicy and play with women, since the ancient county lieutenant promised that we can become officers and soldiers, why don't the big guys descend early, so that we can also marry wives and have children openly in the future. ”

"Don't be fooled by him! How can there be a good person in office! Once we lay down our weapons, we will surely die without a place to be buried! It's better to fight now, maybe there is still a glimmer of life. The little leader who had tried to kill the surrenderer shouted.

The people who had planned to surrender with them suddenly became worried again, and for a while they didn't know who to believe.

"I can swear that if there is still a reckoning after you surrender today, I will be killed by ten thousand arrows piercing my heart!" Goode said.

"Hmph, that's a nice thing to say, I see that whoever of them dares to surrender, whoever moves me will kill him!" The little leader said, waving the knife in his hand.

The little boss seemed to intend for everyone to continue to attack the soldiers of the Ruishi Battalion, and the two sides were tense and saw that the situation was about to get out of control. Unexpectedly, just after roaring, he was about to raise his feet, accompanied by other exclamations, but a cold blade pierced his waist ribs from behind!

The little leader turned his head and saw his cronies in disbelief, his sword in his hand, blood stained on his hands......

"Is that you?"

This is what the little boss never expected, and in the end, he would die in the hands of his cronies, and he died such a wretched. If he compares himself with the three masters, he doesn't know whether he will feel lucky or sad, but the two of them can only compare on the Nai He Bridge now, hoping that he will go faster and catch up with the three masters before drinking Meng Po soup.

"Brothers, let's surrender, we can't be a thief for the rest of our lives!"

Everyone still dropped their weapons and stepped forward to say that they surrendered, and at this point, the right peak of Yangtou Mountain no longer belonged to Huanglongzhai, but regained the control of the government, and to be precise, it became the territory of Anping County.

On the right peak of Sheepshead Mountain, in the house of the three leaders of the right camp of Huanglongzhai before, Gu Dezheng sent people to the woods below the mountain to inform Zhou Cang and others, telling them that they had completely taken the right peak here, and the path up the mountain was also controlled, and they could go up directly from there without going through the dangerous road between the two peaks. At the same time, considering that although those people had surrendered, it was not appropriate to let them directly participate in the battle now, so Goode collected their weapons and let them stay in their respective barracks, and then discuss how to arrange them when all the unclothed army people arrived.

At this time, more than 1,200 people in the right battalion surrendered, and these 1,200 people belonged to young and strong men, as long as he was disrupted and arranged in the major armies, and a little training was given to let them understand military discipline and orders and prohibitions.

When Zhou Cang and the others hadn't come over, Zhao Dare came to ask Gude for his resignation. He came here this time mainly as an old face to lower the vigilance of Huanglongzhai, and he did not participate in the previous battle, and now that he has won the right peak, he expressed to Gude that he wants to go back as soon as possible.

Gude thought about it, he also needed to report the situation to Zeng Yu here, so he agreed to Zhao Kang's request, and also sent ten county soldiers to escort him back.

It was about to get dark in the evening, and Zhou Cang and the others led the three battalions of the unclothed army with nearly 8,000 men and horses to the camp at the top of the right peak, and Goode personally went out to meet them.

"Uncle bird, you have made a great contribution this time!" Wang Qing and Gude are old acquaintances, and when they saw Gude, they immediately spoke.

"Ziwu, you are tormenting me when you say this, who doesn't know that you are the number one general among all of us, how can I compare to you compared to the credit." Goode hurriedly waved his hand, not daring to take credit at all.

"Hahaha...."

Everyone laughed, they also knew in their hearts that what Gude said was indeed the truth, the expansion of the scale of the unclothed army in the past six months was almost all caused by Wang Qing and others, although he was indispensable behind Zhou Cang, Sun Hao and others to assist, but Wang Qing led the troops to attack, and the credit was naturally incomparable to others.

"Uncle bird, I should have recruited a lot of people this time." After Zhou Cang waited for everyone to be happy, he asked Goode.

Goode nodded and replied: "There are quite a few, a total of 1,283 people have surrendered, and now they are all resting in their respective barracks after handing over their weapons. ”

"How are they physical?" Wang Qing asked, he has always wanted to increase the number of soldiers in the Ruishi Battalion, but the Ruishi Battalion has high requirements for the physical fitness of the soldiers, resulting in the fact that although the population on Jinniu Mountain is large, the Ruishi Battalion has only expanded to 3,000 people.

"All of them are very good, and they all have a certain foundation, even if they can't enter your Ruishi battalion, they can become other pairs of soldiers." Goode replied in the affirmative.

What he said was also true, the physical fitness of these soldiers was really good, because Huanglongzhai itself had higher requirements for recruiting people as soldiers than other places, and those who were not good in physical fitness stayed in the camp as logistics people. And it can also be seen from the results of this battle that the main people in this battle were the Rui Shi Battalion and the right battalion, of which the Rui Shi Battalion just started to kill more than 200 people in a surprise raid, and then a thousand Rui Shi Battalion soldiers and more than 1,000 right battalion soldiers fought, the right battalion lost almost a third of the men and horses, that is, about 600 men and horses, and the Rui Shi Battalion also lost more than 200 people, of which nearly 100 people were killed in the battle, and then more than 100 were seriously injured, and even more were slightly injured, but the slightly injured were not affected because of their combat effectiveness. So it doesn't count as a loss.

"I hope to be able to take more prisoners in the future, so that I can expand my Sharp Warrior Battalion to more than 5,000 people." Wang Qing said happily.

"Haha, Ziwu, don't worry, as long as you capture Huanglongzhai, this radius of 100 miles is within our range, as well as the entire Anping County, are you still afraid that you won't be able to recruit people?" Zhou Cang said beside him, he always remembered that Zeng Yu asked to expand the unclothed army to more than 10,000 within a year, and he didn't take into account the reserve battalion at that time, so their current goal is only less than half completed.

"Let's think about how to take Huanglongzhai first, their current strength is not less than ours, and they are fighting at home." Goode is relatively stable, he said at the right time.

"Yes, let's discuss what to do next." Wang Qing also put away his excitement and said.

"Ziwu, I inquired earlier, it seems that the leaders of Huanglongzhai are not as monolithic as the outside says, on the contrary, there seems to be a certain contradiction between them, I heard that this three masters just don't want to participate in those who fight for power and profit so they took the initiative to come to the right camp." Goode said.

"Bo Bird, you mean, we can...?" Zhou Cang said hesitantly.

"Yes, but there is one person who must be solved, he is the third master of Huanglongzhai, this person is the county lieutenant who is close to the county seat, and as a result, he defected to Anping County, and now he is the most hostile to the government." Goode said.

"What about the others?" Wang Qing asked.

"The other five don't know, they only know that now the big boss and the second boss of Huanglongzhai are fellow villagers, and the other three came over later." Goode said.

"It's simple, we don't know, someone always knows."

Gude and Wang Qing looked at Zhou Cang, and both of them knew who Zhou Cang was talking about.
