Chapter Eighty-Seven: Capture the Cave
(Yesterday, I found that Fan Linger was mistakenly written as Zhao Linger in some places, and it should be beaten!) What a low-level mistake! In addition, there are more than 5,000 red tickets, thank you brothers for your love! Today's third watch, a small outburst, not only as a self-examination, but also as a thank you for the support of the brothers! )
No matter what the people encountered, just this armed march made Xiao Tianjian, the newly established Xingtian Army, famous, fly into the distance like wings, as long as they saw his team, they were all amazed.
And Xiao Tianjian on the way to the escort march, the requirements for military discipline are very strict, all personnel are not allowed to act without authorization, must be ordered, and at the same time must not harass the pedestrians who pass by, and always maintain the formation of the formation, so that the style of action is very different from the team of ordinary poles, so that those pedestrians who meet by chance are all surprised.
But as for those caravans that occasionally met on the road, when they saw Shi Ran's scout team from afar, they all dispersed in a hurry, and they didn't even bother to take some of the goods away in a panic, so they were thrown on the road, Xiao Tianjian naturally accepted it happily and put away the useful things.
From Fanjiabao to Wang Tianlong's lair, the distance is roughly dozens of miles away, along the way to pass through a few dozen Zhuangzi, these Zhuangzi found Xiao Tianjian's team from afar, the people in the village immediately fled into the village fort to close the village gate, and pulled up the drawbridge, shouting and making a vigilant posture, for fear that this team would suddenly attack their Zhuangbao, one by one frightened.
But Xiao Tianjian is not here now, he wants to rush to Wang Tianlong's lair as soon as possible and gain a foothold, so even if he passes through some forts along the way, he doesn't provoke them, but just asks Luo Yingjie to write some stickers, and sends Shi Ran's scouts to shoot into the forts along these roads with bows and arrows.
The post is very simple, that is, to tell these rich people in Zhuangzi that they are Xingtianjun, so that these rich people will get to know each other a little in the future, and Hugh will provoke them, save the hurt and be angry, and wait until the Xingtianjun comes back to visit them in the future!
This can also be regarded as making some arrangements for the future, and when necessary, you can blackmail these rich people and force them to come up with some money and food to honor their Heavenly Army.
They had never heard of such a Xingtian army nearby, and they didn't know the origin of this Xingtian army, but they looked at the Xingtian army from a distance, they were still frightened, and they couldn't figure out when they suddenly came to such a chaotic army here, which couldn't help but remind them of the scene when Shaanxi was surrounded by displaced people, for fear that they didn't know when, their Zhuangzi would be harmed by these chaotic people.
So the two wealthy families who were more clever, after receiving the letter from the Xingtianjun, quickly made up their minds, and hurriedly prepared some money and food, ready to send it out at any time, and handed it over to the Xingtianjun, at least it was to buy a guarantee for themselves first, and after the province, this strange army of soldiers and horses was eyeing their Zhuangzi, which was regarded as paying some protection money for peace first.
This kind of thing is also common at this time, at the moment all parts of Shaanxi are not peaceful, although such a large force of rebels like Gao Yingxiang and the Eight Kings was forced out of Shaanxi for a period of time under the encirclement and suppression of the troops and horses of the five provinces mobilized by Chen Qiyu, the governor of the five provinces, and temporarily stopped operating in the Shaanxi area, but there are many small poles in various places, because their impact is relatively small, so they have failed to attract the attention of the government and the imperial court, so they have their own space for survival.
And these small poles rely on these big families to make a living, but after all these years of losses, the rich people have built their own forts, hired Zhuang Ding and trained their own village bravery, so the general pole wants to conquer a fort, in fact, it is very difficult, Xiao Tianjian and Wang Tianlong's attack on Fanjiabao this time is a proof, if it is not for Wang Tianlong to intercept the tenants outside the village so that they can not enter the village, resulting in a weak defensive force in the village, Xiao Tianjian even if he later swallowed Wang Tianlong's subordinates, With his poor tiger squat cannon alone, it is very difficult to pour into Zhuangzi, and he often has to pay an extremely heavy price to conquer a manor like Fanjiabao.
Later, fortunately, Xiao Tianjian came up with a way to use wild bees, and he was able to get away with Fanjiabao, otherwise, if he only attacked hard, even if Fanjiabao was defeated, I am afraid that he would have to die a lot of his subordinates.
At the beginning, Xiao Tianjian had just trained dozens of soldiers, and he wanted to attack a Zhuangzi like Fanjiabao, which was actually a little unwise, to put it bluntly, he was arrogant, greedy and not enough to swallow an elephant, and he could defeat Fanjiabao, in which luck should account for the main component, and it could be regarded as Xiao Tianjian's good life!
Therefore, under normal circumstances, the small strand of poles is reluctant to attack Zhuangzi, because most of the small strands of poles are composed of displaced people, and the combat effectiveness and equipment quality are extremely low, and the organization is also very poor, which can be seen in Wang Tianlong, in this case, the ability to attack the fortification is naturally very pitiful! If it weren't for the last resort, the general pole would not easily attack the Zhuangzi of a large family! In that case, it is often impossible to beat Zhuangzi, and the losses are heavy, and the gains outweigh the losses, so the small strands of poles are generally tied to meat tickets or cut the diameter for a living, and the development is very slow, and there are very few cases of leapfrogging development like Xiao Tianjian!
But for the big families, they don't want to easily mess with the poles, a pole is easy to say, I am afraid of messing with a few poles, let a few poles unite to attack his manor, it will be a big trouble, at the moment the government they can't count on it, they can only count on the village soldiers composed of the Zhuang Ding and the tenants in their village to resist the attack of the pole.
Therefore, under normal circumstances, large families will adopt a compromise method and appropriately take out a small amount of money and grain to send to the poles, in exchange for the poles will not easily attack their Zhuangzi.
And this time Xiao Tianjian's march, in fact, also played a role in showing off the force, the Zhuangzi in the places along the way, after seeing their lineup, everyone was frightened, panicked, the smart ones are indispensable to strike first, immediately after the Xingtian Army passed, they sent people out to follow, and began to inquire about the origin of the Xingtian Army.
Dozens of miles are not far away, and in one day, Xiao Tianjian led the team to the outside of Wang Tianlong's lair, and when he saw that it was getting late, they did not immediately attack the cottage, but gave an order and stationed them outside the mountain on the spot.
According to the information collected, the current leader of this Tianlong Village is a former leader of Wang Tianlong's subordinates, this person is also surnamed Wang, a distant relative of Wang Tianlong, and an uncle and brother, named Wang Xi, as soon as Wang Tianlong died, this became his territory, and his subordinates had just gathered more than 100 people, but compared to when Wang Tianlong left, these people were just some homeless people who had just been recruited, and there was no combat effectiveness at all.
So Xiao Tianjian was not in a hurry to do it, and after arriving at the cottage, he was stationed at the foot of the mountain, burying the pot and cooking to let his subordinates have a full meal first.
The benefits of this leggings were evident during the march that day, and after walking down dozens of miles, the people who put on the leggings did not feel too tired, and the calf in the past was much less painful because of the long-distance march, which made many people very satisfied with this pair of leggings, until this time, the gaiters were untied and the legs rested.
And with the arrival of the Xingtian Army, the cottage suddenly opened again, Wang Xi was still a little complacent about his cousin being killed, thinking that there was finally a day when he would come out, so these days he has been recruiting new people, preparing to do it with great fanfare, and also taste the feeling of calling for wind and rain.
Originally, he thought that Wang Tianlong was dead, and this matter would come to an end, and the opponent couldn't kill it all, and then come to take his Tianlong Village, basically he didn't expect that the pole that swallowed his cousin would come here again to grab his territory, but this evening, I heard that a pole of thousands of people came outside, stationed in the mountain pass below their cottage, and then realized that trouble was coming, and hurriedly sent someone to find out the news below, and the people sent out quickly ran back. The pole that came up was the one that killed his cousin, and it was clear that he was coming to seize the village.
Wang Xi panicked when he heard this, although he was illiterate, but he could tell how much, looking at the black crowd outside the mountain pass, a fool could also see that the other party had a lot more hands than others, not to mention that now there are many people under the other party who were their subordinates in Tianlongzhai before, and they are very familiar with the situation here, this battle does not need to be fought, he knows what the result is!
Seeing that the opponent was camped in the mountain pass, Wang Xi knew that he was not an opponent, so he packed up the soft things that night, and took a few cronies and two beautiful women under his hands, so he took advantage of the night to escape in the back mountain, as for the remaining new recruits, he couldn't control it, although the boss was majestic, but at least he had to have a life, he was not stupid, he knew very well the combat effectiveness of his subordinates, and he thought that his cousin was also one of the few fierce people in this area, and they were all done by others, and they were more than a few wins, and now there are nearly a thousand people at once, And he only has more than 100 miscellaneous fish just recruited, and he can't fight against others at all.
As soon as Wang Xi ran, the remaining homeless people naturally no one would carry it here, and immediately Tianlongzhai was in chaos, and the timid snatched some food on his back and ran away, and the bold simply opened the mountain gate directly, and ran to the bottom of the mountain to find the Xingtian army to surrender.
The result was that Xiao Tianjian did not fire a single shot, and occupied Tianlong Village before dawn, and all his subordinates entered Tianlong Village after dawn.
