Chapter 142: The stand-in for the Battle of the Three Waters
In the middle of the field, there is a simple little shack.
Maybe it's a place for the family to watch over the food on a summer night, maybe it's a tea shed, maybe something else. But that was a long time ago.
Although there is no war yet. But the decline of the Ming Dynasty, everyone in the entire Ming Dynasty is sympathetic.
No matter what happens between these sheds, although the world is crumbling day by day. The shed between the fields is no longer inhabited. And depending on the degree of decay, it has been at least twenty or thirty years.
"That's it." Lin Cha said, "Clean up and get ready to welcome your guests." ”
"Yes." Dozens of pro-soldiers immediately began to clean up the place. As for these men with knives, what kind of cleaning can be done here, but it just looks like there is a place to sit.
In many corners, it is still as thick as a finger of dust.
After a while, the dust shook a little.
After a while, the corner above the table began to shake slightly.
Lin Cha's heart moved, and he said secretly: "It's here." His eyes flashed, and he looked at the people around him, but saw that these people all looked slightly nervous. The larynx shakes up and down.
Apparently nervous.
Lin Cha said: "Don't leak any flaws, otherwise we'll be finished." You know? Just send out the signal and hold it for a moment or three, and it's a great achievement. ”
Lin Cha led everyone out of the camp and saw dozens of samurai surrounded by a middle-aged civil official. Seeing this, Lin Cha guessed that this person was none other than Lin Jiading. He stepped forward and said, "Brother Clan, meet Brother Clan." ”
The civil official was slightly stunned and said, "Okay, good, as long as you abandon the darkness and turn to the light, I will recognize you as a clan brother." ”
Lin Cha said: "Brother please." ”
Most of the soldiers around this civil official stayed outside to guard, and only a few followed him into the tea shed.
When this civil official saw the situation inside the tea shed, his brows furrowed slightly. This person is proud of his family, and compared with the situation of ordinary people in this era, it is simply a world of difference. Although it is not a habit of cleanliness, it is inevitable that it will be a little uncomfortable for such a situation.
Lin Cha immediately said: "Brother clan, the situation is simple. Sluggish. ”
"It doesn't matter." The civil servant said.
Immediately, a brocade robe was spread on the chair, and the civil official slowly sat up and said, "Let's get to the point." ”
Lin Cha raised his head, a glimmer of light flashed in the depths of his eyes, and then dissipated invisibly, leaking a faint smile that was almost flattering, and said, "Okay." ”
Just as they were saying the right thing, on both sides of the tea shed, a large number of people and horses were quietly marching into the hands of many foot soldiers
Carrying a long knife. He bit down on a twig in his mouth. Just in case you have a sound coming.
However, after all, these people are not elite soldiers like Zhang Xuan's own soldiers and the Eight Banners of the Qing Dynasty, and they can lurk in the past silently.
And it's not nighttime now.
Visibility was low at night. There are a lot of things that can be disguised, and now it is under the blue sky and white sun, although there is some mist, but these mist, with the sun rising. The mist also quickly dissipated invisibly.
So no matter how hidden they are, they can't keep it hidden.
Lin Cha's eyes had been observing the shadow on the ground, although he was talking to this civil official about the treatment after surrender.
But Lin Cha's mind was not on this at all.
But he thought he was hiding it well, but he didn't know that he had already been seen, and the eyes of this middle-aged civil official flickered a little. Random regained his composure, pretending that I saw nothing at all.
Both sides have evil intentions and have their own calculations, but they don't know who can calculate whom?
The praying mantis catches the cicada and the yellow finch is behind, but who is the praying mantis, who is the cicada, who is the yellow finch, who is the hunter, everyone thinks they are hunters. Only after the dust has settled can we know who is the real hunter and who is the prey.
"It's time." Lin Cha's eyes flashed, and he said: "Brother clan, as long as you allow me to do something, I will take my headquarters and the four surnamed pirates to defect to His Majesty Yongli." ”
"Okay." The middle-aged civil official said: "Brother clan, speak quickly, say it." ”
"Your head." Lin Cha shouted, drew his knife with his backhand, and the sword light slashed down like a horse.
The middle-aged civil official's face turned pale, and there was a sense of inwardness, but he didn't dodge, but a person greeted him from the side, and the two long knives touched together in front of the middle-aged civil official's eyebrows, and there was a "clank" sound, and sparks splashed.
The middle-aged civil official only felt that before his eyes, he was as red as fire, with a scorching power. There was a buzzing in my ears. I couldn't help but let out a loud shout, and immediately took a few steps back. There was a large area of fiery red in his eyes, and his ears were buzzing, and for a while all he could see was the silhouette of a human figure, and all he could hear was faintly.
I can't really see it, I can't understand it.
It took a while to recover.
When he recovered, he was able to distinguish between superior and inferior, and all calculations were auxiliary to strength. After all, the victory or defeat is determined by strength. 、
And the guards he brought were completely incomparable to the brothers of life and death brought by Lin Cha.
The two sides fought for only a while, and more than half of them were already in the end.
This kind of small-scale fighting is more brutal than fighting with a large army, and it is possible for a large army to fight or to be a prisoner, but this kind of small-scale fighting, both sides are the elite selected from tens of thousands of troops.
Whether it's loyalty, or something else,
They are far beyond other soldiers, and the more so, the more people can't let go.
"When." A long knife was nailed to the ground, and in front of this senior civil official, Lin Cha sneered and said: "Brother, the younger brother borrowed your head to get promoted to make a fortune, so that the clan brother can be fulfilled." ”
"Huh." The middle-aged civil official said: "I was born as a member of the Lin family, and died as a ghost of the Lin family. Do you think you've really won? ”
As he spoke, he suddenly picked up the dagger in his hand and stabbed it into his neck, this time quickly and accurately, cutting off the major arteries, and blood gushed out, spilling Lin Cha's body.
Lin Cha wiped the blood beads on his face, and there was a trace of unhappiness in his heart, although he didn't know what Lin Jiading just said meant. But this feeling of not being under his control made him very unhappy.
However, at this time, he didn't ponder Lin Jiading's words, and cut off the person's head with a knife. Reaching out for the man's clothes, he tore off a large chunk of his clothes and wrapped his head around him. Then he left the tent. At this time, the two sides have unabashedly revealed their armies. The tea shed is between the two armies.
At this moment, there was still some distance between the two armies, and Lin Cha quickly returned to the formation of the army, came to Ding Chukui, turned over and dismounted, and knelt on the ground. He raised his head high and said, "My subordinates have taken Lin Jiading's head, please take a look." ”
Ding Chukui didn't speak, just gave a look to the left and right, a guard turned over and dismounted, took the head, looked at it carefully, first frowned, and finally took a closer look, and said, "My lord, this person is not Lin Jiading." ”
"What?" Lin Cha said loudly: "How is this possible, he obviously -----"
"It's fake." Ding Chukui said: "If I guessed correctly, this is because it is the old housekeeper who followed Lin Jiading, Lin Jiulang, I heard that he was born in Lin Jia's family. is Lin Jiading's scholarly background. Deeply trusted by Lin Jiading, many things that Lin Jiading does not show up for are sat by him, and the people below are called the Ninth Master. ”
"But I don't want to die here."
Lin Cha and I felt very bad, he knelt down and pleaded guilty and said: "My lord, my subordinates are not doing well, and I ask the adults to punish me." ”
Ding Chukui smiled faintly and said, "No, I think you did a very good job." His voice changed, and he shouted, "Someone." ”
"Yes."
"Hang this head for me, and order everyone to shout in unison, just shout that Lin Jiading is dead." Ding Chukui said.
When Lin Cha heard this, he immediately felt admiration in his heart, the so-called truth is false, and the truth is true. In the chaotic environment of the battlefield, many times the loud voice is the truth. This human head, on the battlefield, who can look at it carefully.
As long as it can make a difference, it's enough.
This kind of quick wit to push the boat down the river is really difficult for him to achieve.
