Section 678 Great War Three Enemies, Down
Zhu Biao, who has a strong desire for revenge and is narrow-minded and possessive, misses the life of the eldest young master of Zhujiazhuang, who was rampant and domineering in the past but is a law-abiding, safe and good citizen. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
However, Zhu Wannian has no feelings for Dulonggang Zhujiazhuang.
He has never been here at all in his life, and he doesn't even have the slightest impression, this trip is with great ambitions and big goals, and he is in a hurry, how can he be interested in a rural earthen fort.
What are you doing to take back Zhujiazhuang first?
Spend troops in Dulonggang first, lose valuable manpower, and waste time?
Divide the troops, weaken the forces that attack Liangshan and defend against the killing of the officers and soldiers, and defend this single post where it is inconvenient to advance and retreat, so that the officers and soldiers have the opportunity to trap and encircle and exterminate in one fell swoop?
Zhu Biao made such a suggestion, do you have any brains?
What a childish stupidity!
I wish you a long life.
However, Zhu Biao is arrogant and undisciplined, his temperament is extreme, fierce and willful, and he doesn't pay attention to his two eldest brothers who are not as capable as him, and he may not listen to his father's words before.
Zhu Wannian knows that although he and Zhu Biao are uncles and nephews, he is an elder, and it is said that he can reprimand the younger generation, but the age difference between the two sides is not too big, before the family is broken, the two families are far apart, Zhujiazhuang is the ancestral industry, inherited by Zhu Chaofeng, the son of the wife, he and Zhu Yongqing are raised by the stepmother, surviving in the field, which is equivalent to being driven out of the house to support the family business, the relationship between the two families is not close, there is almost no contact in the past, and naturally there is no emotion, now it is in trouble, Zhu family needs to work together to tide over the difficulties, his ability is high and capable, In order to be the third nephew of the leader of the family as an elder, he has been running in Peach Blossom Mountain for several years, and he knows Zhu Biao's crazy character, so he has no reprimand for Zhu Biao's obsession, Zhu Wannian can only be persuaded with good words.
"After taking Liangshanbo, having a foothold and gaining a firm foothold, the next step is naturally to use troops around to further develop and grow. Dulonggang, in the bag. That Cangzhao lackey, what a grimace, Du Xing's is just a prisoner waiting for death. Ah Biao, your wish will be fulfilled, don't be in a hurry. And let that Duchenne obligation to take care of it for us first, and save enough money and food. ”
Although Zhu Long and Zhu Hu had the same impulse as their younger brothers, they also agreed after listening to Zhu Wannian's words, and helped persuade their stubborn and troublesome younger brothers.
The three brothers are in Qingzhou, but none of them want to go back to their hometown and have an understanding of the changes in Dulonggang.
The current Dulonggang is no longer the Zhujiazhuang that dominated one side in the past.
The old households are gone, and I don't know whether the original village was killed or distributed by the government in large numbers, or was driven away by the new overlord Du Xing, so that the old cronies brought out by Zhujiazhuang came to secretly investigate, and they didn't know anyone in the local area. The residents, including the former Li Jiahu Family Liangzhuang, are all new faces, all of them are homeless, and when they come to inquire again, they have changed to strangers.
The Zhu family's network foundation and influence in Dulonggang have long been gone, not only no one supports the Zhu family to come back as the master, but also by the local continuous loss of conversion is just a temporary residence in Dulonggang to cultivate money and save money and grain strange new households are strictly guarded, the Zhu family is back as a robber, in addition to unpopular violence, how can it have a stable foothold here?
Duchen and his subordinates moved to Zhujiazhuang Castle, which was easier to defend and more spacious.
In the past, the Zhu family spent a lot of effort to set up the anti-enemy trap and the snake road became Duchen's barrier to protect the village, and it was also changed, it was no longer a poplar tree that led the way, what is the secret, the village is tightly defended, and outsiders have no way to find out. The spies came here to inquire about the snake road and were arrested, and like other strangers who dared to trespass, they all came and went.
Attack in a hurry, and it will be difficult to deal with it just by winding the snake road.
Even if you can quickly defeat it with superior forces, you will have to lose a lot of manpower.
And the nine thousand bandits are the foundation of the Zhu family's hard work to accumulate and cultivate, and there are many places to rely on. Whether you can establish a foundation in Liangshan to fight the world, mainly relying on these backbone old people, the bandits have become noble, and they can't afford to lose, if they lose in Dulonggang, kill Du Xing, and grab the money and food, it will not outweigh the loss, but they are happy.
Moreover, after the pirates made trouble, the Dulonggang homeless households also took the opportunity to run away a lot.
There are also thousands of Halal Mountain Liukou swept through the surrounding state capitals of Liangshanbo, although they did not pass through Dulonggang, which is difficult for people and horses to pass through and fight in a remote location, the temporary residents here also took the initiative to look for it, and followed the protection of the Liukou with the summer grain that had just been harvested.
At present, the residents of Dulonggang who have not left have all moved to live in the original Zhujia Castle, which is protected by Du Xing and Zhuang Ding to prevent the tide of turmoil, and the countryside is uninhabited, so there is no easy way to kill and rob.
So, what are you in a hurry to fight?
To hit the nail of the snake road that he laid the foundation, and take the initiative to send him to death in the trap?
Du Xing is no longer the little butler who took over Dulonggang in a hurry, lacks prestige, and does not have many reliable manpower. Lijiazhuang, Hujiazhuang, and Zhujiazhuang all don't exist. Dulonggang now has only one dominant Dujiazhuang, with vast fields and no shortage of money and food, and has cultivated a foundation of power, and the armed forces under his command are not easy to bully.
If you fall into a trap and are captured alive, it will really be revenge instead of the enemy's intentions.
Duchen not only got rid of the hidden danger of his rival, but also caught thieves and killed thieves, but he was rewarded by the government, and he would be happy to grin if he got any benefits of fame and fortune.
Traps, that play, you don't distinguish between the generals and the soldiers, and the level of skills. Blindly breaking into the snake road, anyone can be the unlucky one.
Regarding this point, the three brothers of the Zhu family, who were born in traps and harming people, naturally know better than anyone else.
But there is a saying called the wrong mistake.
Decisions that are not made carefully are the right and best.
There are always things in this world called accidents, accidents, and coincidences. It is in this way that the world is full of wonders and surprises.
If Zhu Biao is hard and willful, he may be reckless.
Fight Dulonggang first, Liangshan side does not have enough troops, and it is inconvenient to expose the strength now, and there is really no good way to deal with it. It was inconvenient for Liangshan to send troops to support. It is impossible to count on the officers and soldiers to lift the siege. Then, Duchen's trouble will be big, and the 1,000 Liangshan army in Dulonggang will be in danger. The robbers of Taohuashan delayed time in Dulonggang, and the officers and soldiers of the surrounding state capitals had to go out to chase and suppress under the pressure of the court and Zhao Gonglian, even if they did not really fight, Zhu Wannian had no chance to prepare a wooden platoon under the siege, and he could not fight Liangshan, so he could only lead the army to flee to other places, but he could escape the catastrophe, and the Zhu family power could also be retained, and there would be a chance in the future.
Liangshan's side also thought of Dulonggang's weakness, and did not withdraw in advance, but also saw that Zhu Wannian was shrewd and could suppress Zhu Biao, and he would do everything he could to seize time to attack Liangshan.
It's a pity that no one supports him, and no matter how willful Zhu Biao is, he can only give up fighting Dulonggang first, but his mind is holding back in his heart and he has been working hard.
At this moment, he pondered, took Liangshan, arranged this new base, and the first thing to clean up was Duchenne.
In Dulonggang's hometown, I wish my family members not to occupy it, and I must not let others enjoy it. Just let it go to waste. When the time comes, he will lead his troops to personally kill and destroy.
"Enemy attack—"
A roar that tore through the throat suddenly came from a distance in the direction of Dongzhai Gate, startling the bandits and leaders in the hotel who were drinking and playing with money and making a leisurely noise.
Zhu Biao's eyes were also fixed, but then he sneered disdainfully.
Whether it was the Liangshan people or the officers and soldiers of Dongchang Mansion who came, he was not afraid.
Liangshan's little bit of business and health strength is under the pressure of the bandit army, the nest can't be saved, it's difficult to protect itself, and I'm afraid it's too late to escape, what kind of manpower can be divided to fight this?
Officers and soldiers of Dongchang Mansion?
What is the combat effectiveness of the inland army of the Great Song Dynasty?
The soldiers in the important places of Qingzhou are not good. The Dongchang soldiers who are used to being comfortable are even worse.
Those rotten soldiers can't fight at all, and 3,000 bandits are enough to deal with it. The camp was strong again, and the carts pulling money, food, and supplies added obstacles to the fence, further strengthening the defenses, and there were many bows and arrows to press the formation. The officers and men were afraid that they would not be able to get in, and they would kill as many as they dared to come.
Immediately, the sound of the light alarm gong and the screams of the incoming sentries were heard.
Sure enough, it was the officers and soldiers who came.
Zhu Biao was not surprised, but laughed.
But the screeching of gongs abruptly stopped, and was replaced by a loud sound that shook the mountains one after another.
There was a collapse of the wall and the screams of the bandits.
Hua Dao led Meng Futong to lead the brothers from the woods to the opposite of the east gate of the camp, the camp was empty within one or two hundred meters and there were no trees to cover it, and it was impossible to sneak closer, only to attack. The soldiers only showed a slight trace at the edge of the woods, and the bandits on the high guard tower of the camp were also immediately spotted although they were listless on duty, and quickly sounded the alarm.
Liang Shanjun didn't care about being exposed.
This time, wearing the Song military uniform and disguising the Song army, he was pretending to be officers and soldiers to fool the bandits and forcibly break the village.
The Song military uniform, the pirate empire saved money for the Song Dynasty to support, and reduced the financial pressure of the Song Dynasty, that is, to reduce the burden on the people, so I didn't rob much, but I also got a lot. Liangshanjun took root in the Song Dynasty and could be used for tricks, with tens of thousands of sets, which were usually worn in Liangshan as training clothes and work clothes. Anyway, across the vast water, outsiders can't see it. At this moment, it is naturally easy to disguise 2,000 people. And when the sentry bandits saw it, they naturally thought it was the officers and soldiers calling.
To break through a strong camp and rely on manpower to do it brutally, it is both difficult and costly.
This trip is all about quick fixes.
There are other enemies to deal with. It was necessary to rush for time to draw troops to rush over.
The Liangshan army immediately launched the prepared crossbow.
This kind of crossbow arrow is similar to the one used by the good guy Lan Bo in "First Blood", it has the power of high explosives, and it is a fortress-breaking weapon to avoid close adventures from a distance.
Ma Qi shot the first arrow at the watchtower, and it exploded with a bang. The above bandits who were calling the police and opening their bows were either killed or wounded.
Immediately after, the closed gate of the fortress also became in tatters, and the bandits guarding the gate fell down in a loud noise, screaming for the wounded, and the lucky turned and fled in terror.
The bandits on duty are not cowardly or so afraid of death, they dare to fight.
However, most of them were original civilians, and even if they knew about explosives, they had never seen it, and they knew nothing about gunpowder. Among them, there are Song soldiers who rebelled into bandits, and they know about gunpowder weapons such as flying fire crows, but they are equipped by the border army, and the inland soldiers have almost no chance to contact them, and the rumors they have heard are not so terrifying.
These people in the era of superstition suddenly encountered terrible means like thunder, no matter how fierce and courageous, no matter how conceited and brave, how could they have the courage to resist an attack that could kill a large number of people with a single sound?
So the thick and hard wood is broken into pieces in a blink of an eye, how can people resist this play?
I didn't see the crossbow arrows, and somehow there was an explosion.
Many bandits thought that there were experts in the officers and soldiers who knew how to demons. These are all ordinary people who can only wield knives, who can resist the demon law?
There are even more superstitious thoughts to see the watchtower, the gate and the brothers flying and destroying together in a loud noise, blood and broken limbs splashing everywhere, too infiltrating, too miserable death, there are ghosts in their hearts, and they think that they are going to be retributed for doing evil as bandits, and God fulfills the cause and effect, and today it is the turn of the brothers, including themselves, to repay their debts and lives, and they are terrified.
Run.
It is the instinct of life to face unknowable and unstoppable dangers.
These bandits screamed and wiped their heads and ran away, and as soon as they took the lead, the other bandits fled immediately even if they wanted to persist in the fight.
They are not revolutionary righteous men with great feelings and a spirit of sacrifice, how can anyone who is willing to stand up to the door here and die to fight for a chance of survival.
The guards of Dongzhai Gate scattered in a hurry, rushing to the camp.
The way to get in opened in the blink of an eye.
Meng Futong rushed out of the woods in one step, and took the lead in rushing forward.
Zhu Biao calculated to take revenge on Cang Zhao and Du Xing. Meng Futong, who once served as the king of the grass in Jigong Mountain in Qingzhou, also suffered the loss of the Zhu family's plot, and today he has a fate and has to take revenge.
Ma Qi, the deputy general of this trip, knew his thoughts, put his two knives in his hands, shouted and killed, and rushed forward with nearly 2,000 Liangshan troops.
After entering the camp, Ma Qi galloped with 500 cavalry on foot to the place where the horses were released in the camp. The Taohuashan bandits have hundreds of war horses, and they must be grabbed as soon as possible, otherwise when the bandits react and ride the war horses, even if they do not resist, it is convenient to escape, and the Liangshan army is on foot, and they can't stop it at all.
The bandits in the camp are also confident that the camp is strong, if there is an enemy attack, self-confidence is completely too late to rush up to defend, and they did not put the officers and soldiers in their eyes, but it was not their turn to be on duty, and the heads and faces gathered in the hotel to accompany Zhu Biaole in the summer, and the others were not so big-faced, and they could only be exposed to the unobstructed scorching sun in the wilderness, lazy and lazy gambling and even drinking and sleeping under the slightly shady tent, and there were no guards at all in the horse camp, only a dozen horse breeders were listless and busy taking care of the war horses and mules and horses, and were rushed by Ma Qi and others. These horsemen exclaimed that the escape was over in a blink of an eye, and the war horses fell into the hands of the Liangshan army.
Ma Qi shook off the blood stains on the knife, and couldn't help but be happy when he glanced at the war horse.
The emotional bandits are also ready to respond to the big war at any time, the war horses are actually equipped with saddles, but the belly belt is loose, the horse chew is not worn, it is hung on the horse, the war horse can eat and drink leisurely, as soon as there is a war, the bandits quickly tighten the belly belt, put on the horse chew, and in a blink of an eye can turn into cavalry into battle.
Perhaps they were not planning to defend the camp, but to hunt down the officers and soldiers.
It seems that the Peach Blossom Mountain bandits believe in their own combat effectiveness and are confident that they can defeat the invading officers and soldiers.
At this time, this was convenient for the Liangshan cavalry.
