Eight thousand soldiers and horses crossed the Yellow River.

Luo Cheng's actions are always unexpected, and no one can calculate that Luo Cheng will suddenly wave his troops across the Yellow River at this time. After all, he should not have led his troops across the Yellow River to comfort the ambassador of Henan.

But that's what Luo Cheng did.

He didn't inform anyone, and he didn't even send a reprint to the court.

In this way, he quietly led 8,000 men and horses to cross the Yellow River, and after chatting with his old friend Liu Zhenjiang at Antler Pass, Luo Cheng smiled and took Liu Zhenjiang's Antler Pass to defense, and asked Lao Liu to accompany him with his 800 town soldiers.

Lao Liu smiled bitterly and gave him away from the Antler Pass, and then took someone to Luo Cheng as a guide.

"Do you want to kill Plains County directly?" Lao Liu asked.

"Don't worry, let's go to Douzigang first." Luo Cheng looked at the vast plain at night. He came here once two years ago, turned Douzigang upside down, and beat Liu Badao, who had just become a bit of a climate, like a lost dog.

Now that you're here, let's revisit the old place.

"But didn't the marshal say that all kinds of bandits want to attack Pingyuan County?"

Luo Cheng smiled, "The intelligence is true, but maybe they haven't gone to Pingyuan County yet, so let's go to Douzigang to find them first." ”

That's the case, but Lao Liu didn't believe it, if he really knew that the thieves were going to Pingyuan County, then he would go directly to Pingyuan County and wait. But after all, he is also an old fritter, and after thinking about it, he immediately understood the mind of this handsome.

If you run to the plain county and scare the bandits when you don't attack, what if you don't attack?

It's better to let the bandits go to Pingyuan County first, and then Luo Cheng will lead his troops to come to the rescue, which is a great achievement. Besides, you can still make a fortune by taking the opportunity to copy down the bandits' lair.

"Zhang Liang!"

Luo Cheng beckoned, and Zhang Liang strode over.

"Dashuai."

"Are those thieves out of Douzi Gang?"

"I already set off yesterday, and now it is estimated that I am almost in Ande City, the county town of Plains."

After crossing the Yellow River, it was only eighty miles from Lujiao Pass to Ande, the county town of Pingyuan, and Luo Cheng only needed to speed up his march and arrive in one day.

However, Luo Cheng did not plan to go directly to Ande, but ordered the whole army to go east.

Ande is in the north of Antler Pass, and Douzigang is in the east of Antler Pass.

In the night, the soldiers and horses marched all the way east.

Although they were holding torches, everyone was a little complaining about the night march.

The fourth said to Luo Cheng, "These bandits have all run across the Yellow River, no matter where they attack, that's the matter of Hebei officials and generals, let's take care of our Henan." ”

"How can things be so simple, haven't you heard that your lips are dead and your teeth are cold, this Hebei is in chaos, what good is it for us. Besides, although I haven't figured out why Li Mi and the others want to gather thieves to fight Pingyuan County, but since he Yang Xuangan and Li Mi are enemies of me everywhere, then I will sabotage his plan, besides, it is good to suppress bandits and destroy thieves, do you forget how much we gained last time we came to Douzigang? Besides, there are so many bandits this time, not to mention anything else, as long as we copy the lair of these thieves this time, we will definitely be able to make a lot of money, why not? ”

Anyway, in the eyes of the imperial court, all those who rebelled and rebelled were already inhumane. Once caught, they were summarily executed. Luo Cheng is not so ruthless, after all, he is from his own clan.

So when he came this time, in addition to sabotaging Yang Xuangan's plan, he also planned to come to the black, rob all the money accumulated by the bandits, and then rob those bandits and the people who were coerced by them.

If they were snatched back, they would naturally be used as slaves for their brothers, or as tuntian slaves for the soldiers of the standing county of each county. Although it was a bit cruel to capture people back as slaves, Luo Cheng felt that he had a better future than them as thieves.

In these days, fighting a war actually has a technical content.

If you fight well, you will be promoted and make a fortune, and if you fight badly, it will naturally be due to the lack of food and wages, and the soldiers will complain.

In the vast night, Luo Cheng's 8,000 soldiers and horses were led by 800 people from Lujiao Pass and stepped into the bean hill for hundreds of miles.

Not long after entering Douzigang, a group of people came to greet him.

"Dou Jiande meets the marshal."

Luo Cheng looked at the Hebei man who was rolling in front of him and falling off the horse and bowing down on one knee, and sighed a little in his heart, if Sun Anzu and they didn't run away at the beginning, maybe Dou Jiande would be a strong general under his command now.

"Get up."

"Xie Dashuai."

Dou Jiande got up and came to Luo Cheng, "I have already found out the reality of each nest camp. As he spoke, he handed over a hand-drawn map, which showed where the camps of the bandits were now stationed, and marked the number of people in the camp and the number of troops left behind.

"It's very detailed, and this map is very good."

"It's all the skills I learned when I was under the command of the marshal."

"Dou Jiande, Ben Shuai will give you another chance now, are you willing to return to the team?"

Dou Jiande hesitated, and finally shook his head.

"It's good now."

"Whatever you want."

With Dou Jiande, the thief, Luo Cheng is clear about the reality of the anti-king camps in Douzigang, and the thieves and bandits are basically still that kind of wandering type, no base, no base camp, where to grab it, after robbing a place of money and grain, and coercing a large number of young people to join, and then continue to go down.

Because there are Luo Cheng and Zhang Xutuo in Henan, many bandits have gathered in Hebei now, and with Li Mi's secret coordination, the families are now forming an alliance to fight the plain county together, and they have also set up their old camps in Douzigang.

Unexpectedly, Luo Cheng came from Henan with soldiers and horses to kill them, and wanted to serve their lair in a pot.

There were Dou Jiande and Liu Zhen who led the way to the party, and after Luo Cheng's 8,000 soldiers entered Douzigang, they began to sweep.

Although there are now more than a dozen bandit camps in Douzigang, each family is also dozens of miles away, and they are still a little wary of each other, but the young and strong old thieves have gone to fight Pingyuan County, although there are many people in the camp, but they are all women, children, old and weak, plus some new ones, and the combat effectiveness is very low.

Among Luo Cheng's 8,000 soldiers and horses, there are not only 5,000 old troops of the Fifth Left Army, but also thousands of people who have experience in suppressing bandits in the previous two years.

Like the autumn wind sweeping away the leaves, swept away.

Every time Dou Jiande led the way in front, and then arrived at the place, Luo Cheng gave an order, so the whole army attacked, and the thief camp collapsed, and then it was good to just encircle and make a forced landing, and then it was to clean up the battlefield, count the loot, and register the prisoners.

After the attack was completed, he continued to be led by Dou Jiande to the next camp.

For three days in a row, Luo Cheng led his troops non-stop, breaking through one thief camp after another, seizing countless grains, cloths, money, silk, livestock, etc., and the captured thieves and prisoners were also very amazing.

"A total of more than 1,000 beheaded, hundreds of thousands of six animals were captured, and more than 100,000 thieves were captured."

Wang Ziming, who was in charge of statistics, held the thick account book and said to Luo Cheng with a look of amazement, "It's really a big harvest, but there are too many captures and prisoners, and we thousands of people are too busy to come." ”
