Chapter 1356: Night Attack

The owner of the mule rushed forward with a cry of rage, waving his arms wildly, and went straight to the captain who had slashed the mule. When the lieutenant saw him rushing to the front with a hideous face, he was also a little frightened and unreasonable, so he withdrew to avoid him.

"Take him, take him. Rebellion? Lord Zhang, Lord Zheng, this chauffeur actually attacked my Da Liao soldiers and horses, this is a capital crime. He didn't have to retreat yet. Xiao Quan shouted loudly.

The two Great Zhou officials had no choice but to step forward to stop the coachman. The official surnamed Zhang advised: "Don't make trouble, this mule is already dead." When you return to Da Zhou, the official will compensate you for the price. Don't make a fuss. ”

The official surnamed Chen also persuaded: "This is in the place of the Liao people, what can you make trouble about?" I don't have to annoy them, I don't know if I worry about my life. Heroes don't suffer immediate losses, don't be annoyed. ”

The owner of the mule stomped his feet and pointed at the two of them and scolded: "You officials, do you still have a little backbone? How strong am I in Da Zhou, and now I am tossed like this by you? Take the blood and sweat of the common people to serve these beasts of the Liao people, let them be powerful and blessed, you are only cowardly and afraid of death, just trying to live in peace for a while. You don't reason with them, but you come to persuade me? My family's big flower is my family's way of life, and they were cut down and killed like this, do you pay? Can you afford my family's livelihood? ”

The two officials smacked their lips and rubbed their hands, speechless, and only said in a row: "The matter has come to this, what is the use of you saying these angry words?" ”

The owner of the mule shouted, "It's useless, but the Liao people cut off my livelihood, so I want to ask for an explanation." My family can't live, so I have to fight with them. ”

Xiao Quan was listening to this, and his heart was furious. The people of the Great Zhou Dynasty spoke insulting words, and said that they would fight hard with their own people, which was worth it. stepped forward and shouted angrily: "That Diao Min, be careful when you speak, and scold us for being brutes or dogs in front of us?" You don't want to live anymore. Get out of the way immediately, otherwise you won't blame Lao Tzu for being polite. ”

The owner of the mule was dumbfounded and scolded angrily: "Liao dog, they are afraid of you, but Lao Tzu is not afraid of you." You dog thief, I curse you that you won't live tonight, and you will be dismembered to death by a knife. Curse thee that after death thou shalt not be reborn for eternity, and curse thy sons that men shall be slaves and women who shall be prostitutes for generations......"

Xiao Quan Canglang pulled out his scimitar and rushed forward, the cold light flashed, and the scimitar slashed between the two Great Zhou officials, hitting the top of the coachman's head. A single knife cut the head of the mule's owner almost in half. The two Da Zhou officials were so frightened that they sat on the ground, their pants getting wet. The mule's master rolled his eyes, staggered back, and fell silently beside the body of his mule, whose name was Dahua.

"Damn, toast and don't eat and drink. Lao Tzu killing you is like killing a dog, if anyone dares to be presumptuous, he will kill you all. Listen to me, your Great Zhou is no longer a Central Plains country, you are our dogs of Da Liao, and you people are also the dogs of our Da Liao, do you hear clearly? How can a dog disobey his master's command, and dare to bite his master, and then he will skin you and eat your flesh? Xiao Quan roared around with his bloody scimitar.

There were already many coachmen from the Great Zhou Dynasty and the miscellaneous servants who accompanied them to help, and they witnessed the scene of the Liao general slashing and killing the chauffeur Sun Laoba who was driving the car. However, in the face of more than 500 heavily armed Liao cavalry, they were just unarmed civilians, and they dared not speak out, so they could only stand there and stare angrily at Xiao Quan, who was dancing with his teeth and claws.

The two Da Zhou officials were afraid that there would be another trouble, so they hurriedly got up and persuaded the coachmen not to think about making trouble. Otherwise, it's really a don't want to live. Although everyone despises them, they are really heroes at this moment and do not suffer immediate losses. So let the officials of the Great Zhou pass the word and allow them to collect the body of the dead Sun Laoba. The two officials were busy communicating, and it was impossible for the Liao people to take care of the body of the dead coachman, so of course they agreed to let the Dazhou coachmen collect the funeral on their behalf.

The coachmen carried out the body of Sun Laoba, discussed it with a lot of gossip, and finally decided to bury it on the spot. After all, there are still hundreds of miles to go, and it is obviously not realistic to carry a corpse. Although the fallen leaves have to return to their roots, they have no choice but to be buried here temporarily, and in the future, they will notify his family to come and move the bones back to their hometown in Taiyuan for burial.

The coachmen dug a pit at the edge of the hillside and buried Sun Laoba in the ground, and everyone stood in front of the grave, sad and frightened. The Liao people are evil wolves, they kill people casually, and there is no guarantee for the lives of themselves and others. On this hundreds of miles to the east, I don't know how much anger I have to suffer, how many beatings and scoldings I will suffer, and I don't even know if I can live. Thinking of this, everyone complained and hated the Great Zhou court even more in their hearts. A good Great Zhou has fallen to the point where even his own people can't protect it, what hope do the common people of the Great Zhou court have for such a thing?

When the coachmen buried Sun Laoba, the Liao soldiers had already lit more than a dozen large bonfires. After all, the dead green mule could not escape the fate of being roasted by the corpse, and the Liao soldiers divided the mule into more than a dozen pieces and roasted them on the bonfire, and soon the smell of meat wafted out. The Liao soldiers were in a good mood, talking and laughing loudly, screaming unscrupulously, as if they had completely forgotten that they had killed a Da Zhou coachman before, and another group of Da Zhou coachmen were burying him. Perhaps in their minds, the people of the Great Zhou Dynasty are really like pigs and dogs, and they die when they die, and they are not worth mentioning like grass mustard ants.

As the night deepened, the bonfire had become embers, like a red cloth in the darkness in the night wind. The well-fed and well-fed Liao soldiers were already snoring and falling asleep. The drivers of Da Zhou, who were driving the car, had also fallen asleep on the edge of the car. They were not allowed to warm themselves around the campfire, so they had to huddle tightly together, hunched over the rags on the car to keep warm.

A small group of Liao soldiers on duty at night were still wandering around, but when everything was silent and the four fields were silent, they no longer wasted their physical strength, but shrank beside the car to avoid the cold wind of the night.

At this moment, the ground seemed to vibrate slightly, and the rumbling sound was like a muffled thunder rolling over the ears. Dozens of Liao soldiers who were keeping vigil stood up in astonishment and looked left and right, the wind in the four fields was loud, and the trees and grass were whirring, and nothing seemed to have happened. The stars are shining in the sky on an autumn night, and it can't really be the sound of thunder in the sky.

"What's going on? Did you hear that? A Liao army commander frowned.

"It looks like an earthquake, but it doesn't seem to be." The soldiers of the Liao army said one after another.

"Damn, if you say it, you don't say it, maybe it's the rumors." The captain of the Liao army waved his hand.

The crowd sat down again. The next moment, however, they jumped up again, for once again they heard the thunderous sound clearly, and this time it was the sound of the official road crossing to the west. The mystery was soon revealed, and the black pressure of the cavalry pouring out of the intersection rushed like a black torrent, rushing straight to the gentle slope where the camp was encamped. They held aloft in their hands

The long knife shone blue under the starry sky, forming a cold forest of long knives.

"Enemy attack!" The Liao army commander suddenly let out a heart-rending cry, and his voice tore through the deep night, and his voice was full of fear and horror.

"Enemy attack! Enemy attack! Dozens of night vigil Liao soldiers reacted, and they all shouted loudly, and drew their blades with all hands and feet.

The terrible shouts woke up the sleeping Liao soldiers and coachmen in the camp, and the war horses and the mules and horses pulling the carts also made a commotion, and the camp was suddenly in chaos, and all the Liao troops got up in a panic, after eating mule meat and drinking wine last night, they screamed and screamed for a while, and some people even lost their armor and blades, and there was nowhere to find them in the panic. They walked around and kicked the embers of the campfire and scattered sparks everywhere.

"Don't mess around, get on the horse to meet the enemy, southwest direction!" Xiao Quan roared loudly. At the same time, he rushed to the place where the war horse was parked, grabbed a horse and turned over. Seeing this, the soldiers of the Liao army also rushed to their horses, and although their armor was not neat, they also reacted quickly.

To the southwest, more than a thousand cavalrymen had rushed to the edge of the camp like ghosts in the night. A black steed jumped up in the air and leaped over the cart in front of it, and the green flute blade in the hand of the slender woman on the horse flashed brightly, and with a wave of her hand, she had already killed the two Liao people who were running in front of the horse's head.

A large number of cavalry in the rear charged, and two burly men rode tall horses and rushed to the front, holding spears and using force at the same time, they moved three carts in a row to the distance of Zhangxu. Those vehicles full of supplies weighed thousands of pounds, and these two people actually moved these carts with two big guns, which shows the great strength of the two people. The point is that the charge of the two men did not show the slightest hindrance, and after picking up three large carts in a row, a gap of a wide width was exposed in the southwest direction of the camp, and the rear cavalry was able to pour in through the gap.

The camp instantly became a slaughtering ground, and after more than a thousand attackers rushed into the camp, the resistance of the Liao soldiers was almost negligible. It's okay for these guys to show off their might and harm the unarmed people, but it's just vulnerable to fighting such a night raider. They resisted less than half a pillar of incense before they began to flee in all directions.

"Not a single living mouth can be left, all of them will be killed." A clear voice came from the mouth of a man with a slender figure riding a five-flowered horse, as cold as the wind on an autumn night. That was Lin Jue.

The slaughter ended with a stick of incense, the camp was littered with corpses, and the smell of blood was in the air, but everything was calm.

"Count the corpses." Lin Jue shouted.

Soon after, the corpses of all the Liao soldiers were carried to the corner and covered a large area of ground.

"Report to the military division, a total of five hundred and three." Liang Qi, who counted the corpses, ran to Lin Juema to report, but he couldn't change his name to be a military advisor.

"Five hundred and three? Why are there two missing? Lin Jue frowned and shouted.

"Brother Lin, don't worry, they can't run, I'll take my brothers to search around, where can they run? Come on, come with me. Ma Bin shouted loudly, turning the horse's head to search.

At this moment, there was a commotion on the side, dozens of figures came over noisily, Sun Dayong hurriedly took dozens of guards to stop them, these people were all coachmen, after the battle began, they shrunk into a ball and hid on the edge, and of course the Luoyan Army did not do anything to them after figuring out their identities.
