Chapter 219: The Parties 4

Mobile reading

Fengzhou, Dongheshu,

Zhang Dong also looked helplessly at the old and weak women and children holding knives and guns around him, and then looked at the barbarians who were all over the ground outside the fortified earthen walls and river ditches, making colorful and green costumes and making different noises; Others are clearly left behind, and the people who have been caught are being beheaded one by one, or some women are being thrown to the ground and wreaking havoc.

He suddenly set up his bow and released arrows, shooting like lightning in the middle of a barbarian leader who was jumping in front of him, and suddenly there was chaos in those barbarian arrays. It's a pity that there are not many people in his hands who can be used in the righteous army, otherwise he will take advantage of the situation to kill the generals, and I am afraid that there will be a lot of gains.

To be honest, he did not expect that he would have a chance to return to southern Xinjiang, and he still came to fight in Annan, which is further south; But he did not have much reluctance and resentment, but felt very calm and a little hatred; Because they have been fighting against those bandits and barbarians who plague the people, in the words of the false leader, they can be regarded as "soldiers" who deserve to protect the people, love the people, and protect Li Shu.

But it is also because he has faced these Xiyuan barbarians in the Guiguan generation, so he is still a little familiar with it and is at ease; Only then did he lead these old and weak people to fight and walk, all the way back to this place that held the estuary of the water and land.

Based on his past experience, the approximate size can be judged by the number of bronze drums in the enemy's formation; Because a copper drum represents the most basic village, and the number of strong men that can be recruited and dispatched is about dozens to more than two hundred, led by a village head or Du Lao.

Of course, with the organization and discipline of most brutes, the equipment and formations were far from being comparable to those of the regular ranks; The only thing that can be commended is their personal bravery from the wilderness; But once the numbers go up, it's still quite terrifying. And in front of them, at least more than forty bronze drums were displayed, which also meant that there were as many as two or three thousand barbarian tribesmen.

The only hope is that the Jiaozhou side can send rescuers. But at the same time he didn't have much hope, and here he only had a team of people who cooperated with the local local group; Even he and the four fire chiefs were only forty-seven soldiers. Whether it is a choice between public and private, there is no reason to abandon the main battle situation there and divide the troops to take into account the small group of men and horses here.

But he still had to hold on on to the surface, and maintained enough confidence and confidence to encourage and mobilize the soldiers and civilians in the garrison, and swore that the support would come soon; Otherwise, I'm afraid that the hearts of the people with this credential will be scattered, and they won't even be able to support the moment in front of them.

You must know that this was originally a garrison where 200 garrisons and their dependents were stationed, and there were many military fields and mouth fields that had been carved out on the spot; As a result, the current garrison, which is home to five or six hundred people, has suddenly squeezed into three or four times as many people as the number of refugees, and it has suddenly become extremely crowded and short of water.

Fortunately, there is a river behind this fortification, and a large number of old and weak women and children have been sent away by the boats collected first, and a batch of materials have been rushed in, otherwise it will be even more difficult and disgusting.

In addition, there were more than a hundred local garrisons, and a little more young and strong than them, which constituted the main force of fighting side by side to defend the stronghold. The reason why there are only more than 100 people at present, and a small half of them are injured, is because they rushed out on their own without saying anything, wanting to meet and rescue those who fled to the people.

Then they fell for the tricks of the barbarians who came to chase and kill, and they hid in large numbers under the low-lying banks of the river, and when they rushed out, they outflanked and cut off the back roads of these soldiers; If he hadn't happened to appear with a new force and crushed and captured the barbarian chieftains under the biggest bronze drum, most of them would have been handed over to the outside;

Therefore, Zhang Dong was also able to replace the missing team leader and the seriously injured team deputy, and took over the heavy responsibility of commanding the defensive operation in the garrison as the second fire commander. In fact, he also lived up to expectations and came up with many countermeasures, and made these gathered barbarians return again and again in vain. It's just that the days that follow were even more difficult.

He looked at the barbarians who were gathering more and more outside the wall and re-attacking, and sighed in his heart: Maybe he will be broken here today, and he can only kill a few more before he completely falls, so that he can live up to this time; This may be the fate of these soldiers of the Long March.

。。。 The words are divided into two sides ...

And outside the East River,

The earth-shattering sound of the copper drum, and in the smoke of burning the internal organs, the witches who communicated with the ancestral gods also became more and more crazy, but they still failed to change the result of these fierce and brave cave men, who led people to rush up again and again and were knocked down against the wall; Three of them are dead, and one is old; Those Han sons even used the corpse of Dongding to build a fortification and defense line on the top of the wall, and continued to provoke them with their bravail.

And Roap, as their actual leader, just watched all this with a blank face, and then kept urging the entire column of complete brute soldiers to rush forward again; And completely ignoring their light attack, there is no equipment and props that can be used to attack the fortification, and can only be piled up with a body that lacks protection.

Compared with those who were unclothed and only had a bamboo spear or machete, and could only risk death with a shuttle dart to approach most of the barbarian soldiers who threw it; The cave men standing beside him were undoubtedly stronger and better equipped. Everyone has a barrel armor inlaid with bamboo and iron, and a fine knife, a Wu hook, a crossbow and other things, and the hat is also sewn with animal skin decorations; This also represents their identity as the bustard Ding of the Roche Bendong.

As the Luo clan that received many remnants of the defeated generals after the defeat of Nanzhao that year, it actually inherited a lot of Nanzhaoman's training and military formation methods; It is to take the landers as the township soldiers, and prepare their own bows, arrows, knives, soldiers, mules and horses to practice battle regularly, and since then they have been divided into dozens of townships and have more than 10,000 soldiers; and slaves and maids ploughed on public and private acres for food.

and also followed the example of the Southern Zhao Luo Thozi (elite vanguard), and selected from the township soldiers to establish the Bustard Ding, which was led by the subordinates; And those who can have these bustards to accompany them before the battle are undoubtedly the cronies and close servants of the ministers.

Luo Apu was originally a lowly child born of a slave, born from a wild combination after a fire festival song; It was only because the mother, who was still a little beautiful, fell in love with the head of the ministry that she got the opportunity to be a small servant; Then, because he was very good at pleasing the lords, he was promoted to the former envoy of the hall, and after paying the unimaginable price and twists and turns of ordinary people, he got this opportunity to lead the team out to supervise the battle as a servant master, and to be a powerful and blessed person above those ordinary barbarian tribes.

Therefore, in addition to the five lords of the Luo clan, the six generals, as well as the cave masters and generals, even those who are attached to the seventeen cave masters and below, he can completely distinguish himself from one of them; So he actually has a different kind of mission.

According to the instructions he received, the more these miscellaneous villagers who were brought along the way, the more the better; secondly, those who come from the vassal caves, can not let this generation overstep the generation to grab too many benefits; It is best to wear off and deplete the enemy's strength and spirit, so that these people from the Roche headquarters may have a chance to fight.

It's just that it seems that the ancestral god doesn't want him to be better, and the more he doesn't want anything, the more he comes; Then a report made his face change.

"The yellow mule rushed over to do something. I don't need what he brought, I can naturally fight it."

And seeing the tall shelf and shape on the wall made Zhang Dong's face change, how could this kind of city-guarding equipment that is obviously only possessed by the state city get these barbarians here.

。。。。。。。。

In front of the Thorn History Mansion in Jianing City, the state city of Fengzhou, dozens of miles away, a large area of blood stains on the ground that had not yet dried; A large group of the great families, gentry, and leading figures of the city were kneeling down on it under the leadership of a gray-haired, thin, and resolute old man, and with a cautious flattering and sycophantic expression, and eagerly stammered and greeted in unison:

"The big leader is fine, the big leader has mercy, we have removed the obstacle of ignorance of current affairs as promised."

"After welcoming your ministry, please protect our net worth as promised. Since the time of gratitude and try to cooperate.。。 ”

Then the thin old man waved his hand again, and the gate of the palace suddenly opened from the inside, and many carts full of goods were pushed out, as well as dozens of crying and crying women of all colors tied up in one place.

"That's what we're waiting for, and there's more to come."

"These lowly maids are those officials who don't know the times, and they are all at the disposal of the big chief."

And in the midst of the barbarian array in front of them, a figure on the back of a mountain horse and covered with shining gold and silver ornaments also appeared.

"Good, good. Say.. Say.. ”

But Wei Jizong, the master of Nanlin Cave, who was described as black and thin with thin eyes and long eyebrows, was also gently twisting his curly and slender beard, and said in an unfamiliar Chinese dialect.

"The foreheads are all meritorious people, Gu (I) will definitely ask King Daluo for merit and reward."

After hearing this, the gentry and representatives of large households who were kneeling on the ground could not help but show relieved expressions, and continued to blurt out with flattery and good words that did not require money; Others stood up with their knees clapped and tried to leave, only to be driven back by the barbarians who blocked the streets.

"Gu (I) said that. Are you leaving? ”

However, Wei Jizong changed color violently.

"What does this mean, Great Chief?"

The thin old man in the lead couldn't help but be startled, and said tremblingly.

"Of course, I want you to help more."

"But... Can.. However, Leader Huang has already promised us. ”

Then he fell to his back with a fierce whip in the face, screaming and spitting out several mouthfuls of blood and teeth, causing the rest of the people who rushed up to retreat and fall to their knees.

"Huang's that's the guarantee of the Huang family. I don't care what my Merriam-Webster does ... ”

Wei Jizong continued to rub his beloved beard.

"It's okay to spare a dog's life, and I want to make more inches."

"Then don't leave any of them...

"How can this be..."

Suddenly a wailing and weeping erupted.

"Okay, okay."

"We are meritorious people."

"You can't die a good death, a brute."

"I'm not at odds with you."

"Fight and end up together...

With his command, these people were still a crowd of people, and they were suddenly in front of the falling knives and guns, and blood was splashed on the spot; The barbarian soldiers of the other side, as if they had been invited to some kind of carnival feast, tore apart the stagnant dead silence and the deformed uneasy atmosphere, and raged in the burning city in the earth-shaking cries and exclamations.

As the initiator, Wei Jizong smiled slightly, and stepped into this bloody mansion under the guidance of the fully clothed servants.

He is not only the lord of the Nanlin Cave who is a vassal of the Luo clan and the in-law of the previous generation, but also a distant branch of most of the Wei clan, one of the big surnames in the Western Plains; Therefore, the 3,000 Dongding under his command now far beyond his actual strength are actually quite a few people from several other Dongzhai surnamed Wei who are close to him; He even suspected that there might not be no instructions from the most powerful Merriam-Webster sect.

And he also believes that he is acting on the same road, and Huang Yixin, the Jiangxia cave master who has already gone out of the city with equipment to reinforce other places, and the extra strong cave men under his command are also like this.

Therefore, once the Luo clan he attached to penetrates deep into Annam and makes some gains, presumably those old-fashioned departments such as the Huang, Nong, and Wei clans, who are still shrouded in the residual awe and psychological shadow of the imperial court, will come to get a piece of the pie. Therefore, during this period of time, he should try his best to grab the maximum benefits and benefits for the Nanlin Cave under his jurisdiction.

As for these fools who betrayed others in order to save their own homes, they still expected themselves to continue to reflect on and retain them; But I don't know what room for negotiation and negotiation is there under the sword and I am the fish; If you don't take these big households, where will you get more goods and children to reward and satisfy the children of those tribes and the soldiers of the caves?

These big families are the most wealthy people in the city, and who can they kill if they don't kill their fat sheep. As for the credibility and fame and reputation afterwards, will the dead still get up from the ground and care about these things with them? As long as the aftermath was clean and properly sealed, he didn't even need to be careful that there would be more waves in Da Luo.

Although it is said that it is necessary to try to gather and appease the hearts of the local people, and to choose one or two from the Han family for their own use, it is the way to occupy long-term peace and stability; But that's just something that King Da Luo and his men should be thinking about. As the lord of a cave, shouldn't he satisfy his own soldiers' desire to burn, kill, and plunder, and restrain and restrain his subordinates from incurring their resentment and ridicule from others?
