Chapter 137: Personal Feud
I don't know why, the time of the Zhucheng army's attack was chosen at night.
When it was almost time, a long string of torches suddenly lit up at the foot of the mountain on the east side of Wulian Mountain, and the three families of Zhucheng set out, and more than 3,000 people began to climb the mountain from east to west.
As soon as the attack began, Xu Shiyang was immediately woken up.
He hadn't slept well for two days, and today he finally found an opportunity to squint for a while, but he was called up to check the situation in a daze, and his heart was very angry, but he couldn't get angry.
He rubbed his eyes and stared at the battlefield to the east, taking a closer look.
The three families of Zhucheng do not seem to have the same heart, their 3,000 soldiers are divided into three roads, all of them spread straight towards the top of the main peak of Wulian Mountain, looking at the past in the dark, like three fire snakes, climbing towards the main peak.
Xu Shiyang grinned, how could there be such a fight.
According to Lu Zhishen, the main peak of Wulian Mountain is not an important target at all, and the population there is very small, and there is nothing special except for the height.
The Zhucheng army actually rushed to the main peak in one go, still at night, obviously not knowing their enemies at all, but after seeing the Xu family's bumper harvest, they really couldn't sit still, so they chose a conspicuous target and rushed over.
"Probably because I said at the beginning that I attacked yesterday, but I was busy settling the displaced people, so I didn't have time?"
Xu Shiyang smiled and said to himself: "Well, am I lying?" ”
If everyone launched an attack together, Xu Shiyang would definitely assign attack targets to each battalion and militia of the New Army, and strive to control the entire Wulian Mountain area as soon as possible.
It's a pity that the Xu family really doesn't have time to attack.
At this time, a rapid bangzi began to sound on the mountain, dense torches lit up around the fire snake spreading towards the main peak, and countless homeless people spontaneously gathered together to fight against the menacing militia of Zhucheng with wooden sticks and stones.
This scene gave Xu Shiyang the feeling of confrontation between a swarm of marching ants and three forest worms.
The officers of the alliance have all gathered around Xu Shiyang, and Lu Zhishen has come over with him.
The monk stared at the battlefield on the mountain for a while, and after realizing what was going on, he immediately shouted and lifted the iron staff, and was about to go up the mountain to join the battle.
Xu Shiyang glanced at him, and with a shout, several soldiers surrounded him and stopped him.
Lu Zhishen didn't look at it, with a wave of his hands, 5 or 6 strong front soldiers were all thrown aside by him!
And everyone flew out several meters, but none of them were injured, this strength and the accuracy of the handling made Xu Shiyang breathtaking.
'This can't be a low-martial world, right?' ’
Of course, it's nothing in the low-martial arts world, after all, no matter how high the kung fu is, are you afraid of kitchen knives?
Soon, seven or eight spears stood in front of Lu Zhishen instead of the Feng soldiers, and there were several muskets behind him, and the fire ropes in the hands of the god soldiers had also been lit.
"What did you tell me the day before yesterday?" Xu Shiyang said calmly: "When you go down the mountain, you enjoy the equal treatment of the people of the fort, but you must abide by my military discipline." If not, you will help me with military justice. ”
"You're going to disobey orders? Or did your promises at the time not count at all? ”
Lu Zhishen is definitely not afraid of death, but this kind of heart-wrenching remarks are far more lethal to him than spears and muskets.
"Sprinkle the family ......, and the sprinkler family counts when it comes to talking." Lu Zhishen lowered his head and whispered: "But the Sprinkle family can't watch the brothers on the mountain fight to the death, and they are indifferent." ”
"Xiao Langjun, let's do it, you let the Sprinkle family go up the mountain, if you can come back alive, the Sprinkle family will cut itself in front of you, so that the Sprinkle family can be regarded as a military discipline for you with your own hands."
"I hate you guys who use righteous and awe-inspiring reasons to put others in a dilemma."
Xu Shiyang muttered helplessly.
Lu Zhishen's words are quite in line with his personality and the taste of the so-called heroes in this world, Luan Tingyu, Sun Li and others who are standing silently next to him already admire him, Xu Shiyang feels that if he is not here, they may be married to a brother or something.
Even Xu Shisong and Xu Shiliu, who don't have much affection for the homeless people, their faces softened a lot when they heard this, obviously they admired such a guy - yes, who wouldn't want to have such a loyal and capable subordinate?
But I think it's most important to be disciplined. ’
Xu Shiyang bared his teeth and said to Lu Zhishen helplessly:
"I want your life to be useless, when you come back, go and get a hundred and thirty military sticks yourself."
"Why one hundred and thirty?"
Is this Lu Zhishen still a little obsessive-compulsive?
"A hundred sticks are to beat you to evade military service! And then this commander will punish you for being a commoner! This is all military law, and the commander will punish you according to military law, do you have complaints? There are thirty sticks left to beat your comrades who just attacked! Get out of here! If you want to evade military service, run away quickly, and when I will arrest you back, it will be a capital crime to escape the second time! ”
Xu Shiyang himself exploited a loophole for himself, and the soldier who escaped from the battle was beheaded, and the crime was to his family (degraded to the common people), but now the new army has not really started a war with Wulian Mountain, so he said that Lu Zhishen is just a desertion of military service, and such a guy is captured with a hundred military sticks, and then he is demoted to a common people.
In fact, if it weren't for Lu Zhishen's great prestige among the homeless people in Wulian Mountain, killing him might lose the trust of the homeless, Xu Shiyang really wanted Lu Zhishen's life, and then cried in front of his grave how much he admired him and how much he didn't want to kill him, just for the sake of military discipline he had to die, so that he could brand the supreme brand of military discipline among the soldiers.
For a modern army, discipline is the guarantee of combat effectiveness, and a warrior with strong kung fu can only be regarded as a stormtrooper captain at most.
Fortunately, if you don't kill him, but beating him up with one hundred and thirty military sticks in front of everyone can also have a similar effect, and it is best for Lu Zhishen himself to express himself at that time, admit his mistakes, promise never to do it again in the future, and firmly take military discipline as the code of conduct in the future or something.
Looking at Lu Zhishen's back gradually moving away, Xu Shiyang secretly thought about how to use Lu Zhishen's matter to strengthen the construction of military discipline, but he didn't notice that Wang Ping and Wang An, who led the troops to participate in the war behind him, muttered in private for a while, as if they were discussing something.
After a while, Wang Ping stepped forward and whispered:
"My Wang family has some personal enmity with the Xin family and the Zhu family over there in Zhucheng, please allow San Lang to allow us to attack."
"Huh?" Xu Shiyang looked at this uncle in surprise and was speechless for a while.
The territory of the Wang family is the closest to Wulian Mountain, and Wulian Mountain spans Rizhao and Zhucheng counties, and he said that it is not impossible to have a personal enmity with the dock fort on the other side of Zhucheng.
However, at this time, it is proposed to attack the de facto allies, is this really not in the name of personal revenge, taking the opportunity to annex the dock fort of Zhucheng?
In fact, as soon as the Wang family said this proposal, the Ding family and the Bao family, whose territory was also bordered by Zhucheng Wubao, suddenly realized that they also came up together, requesting that they immediately send troops to attack the camp of the lord of Zhuchengwu Fort and cut off their back road.
