Chapter 113: Qiu Kou III
"Death to the dog thief."
But in a relatively immature uneven roar, the repeating crossbow machines raised from the youth team as the background came to the rescue; I saw that those short arrows shot out like flying locusts were tightly nailed to the target's body, although they were not able to penetrate the enemy's armor and create a city, but they also blocked his rampaging pounce momentum for a moment.
Then he rushed to the banner in spite of it, knocked over the two last standard-bearers and scribes, and gave up the momentary delay of cutting down the banner, and once again erupted and accelerated to the figure that was constantly retreating in a hurry, and pounced viciously and rolled it into a ball like a falcon preying for food, and startled a large number of hurried shouts and uproars.
"Be careful."
"Pipe head."
"Come on."
"Kill this thief." ””
It's a pity that this time he obviously found the wrong target and object, and what he fell next to the banner was only a big soldier similar to Zhou Huai'an's body, after shaving his beard and wearing armor all over his body, he couldn't tell if he didn't look at his face carefully; After all, under the possible signs of danger, Zhou Huai'an naturally didn't mind playing this kind of trick of Li Daitao's stiff arrangement of a stand-in; Now it's finally coming in handy.
After all, Zhou Huai'an has already passed the age when he is full of middle and second character, and he has to expose himself to the threat of the enemy when he has enough advantages, just to take the opportunity to say a few more words and pretend to show off his superiority; On the battlefield where anything can happen, this is simply a typical villain template who dies too much, or a FLOG who dies by himself.
As early as when he was on the African continent, he learned a basic truth from his compatriots who were active there; At least the bullets that fly around will not dislike you for being rich or poor, noble or despicable, but will take away your most precious things without discrimination; Therefore, when necessary and under the circumstances, wear body armor when it is necessary, wear a helmet when it is necessary, take up weapons as a deterrent, pay some money to buy roads, hire some security forces who are half-official and half-bandits, and take a detour to the defense area of the peacekeeping force.
Therefore, compared with those European and American journalists who almost constantly sacrifice their lives in various ways, just to make a big news to deceive their attention; or members of various so-called "humanitarian organizations" who come to Africa to carry out charitable activities with a high sense of natural superiority and predetermined positions; or a group of individuals who, under the brainwashing of anti-intellectualism, take for granted what they have around them, and who have unprovoked episodes of the Second Sickness and the Virgin; The majority of the Chinese people, who have always believed in making a lot of money quietly and adapting to local conditions, are obviously more likely than them to live a long life and achieve results on the ground.
I saw that the stand-in who was knocked down also seemed to be aroused by some kind of ruthlessness, regardless of the bleeding from the wounds cut out of his body, and the reflex was to take this enemy general like an old tree, and no matter how he pounded and hammered, it was a trend of "insisting on Qingshan and not relaxing"; This also won a corresponding opportunity for the others, and at this moment the soldiers with fishing nets and hooks also surrounded them;
These things were originally used to control and hunt when attacking the earthen village, and some of the more powerful and powerful props that may have been kept in the homes of the big tyrants; I saw a shout and roar, and the fishing nets also caught each other one after another, one is not enough for two, two is not enough, three is not enough... Then he poked his hands and feet with a hook and nail and suddenly lost his balance and fell to the ground again, and then dragged and pulled back and forth on the ground so that he had nowhere to exert his strength, and his disgraced and dirty body was captured on the spot.
"How are you feeling?"
Then, Zhou Huai'an personally carefully inspected the temporary stand-in who had just been freed, a new soldier of the rebel army who was called a stupid big man;
Because he only has his size and body in a short period of time, it is more important to lift the ban on the size and body of a modern person. Fortunately, although the other party was slashed several times, and even the helmet was pulled off, but because the protective ability of this iron-clad suit was quite good, the blood flow looked quite scary, but the cut was not too deep, and it was stopped after he bandaged and sewed it up with his own hands.
"No. Not.. Nothing ... ”
The other party didn't seem to have seen this kind of battle, and suddenly struggled to get up and say in flattery.
"I thought. . . Just lie down and eat more. ”
"Then heal your injuries quickly, and I'll still be of great use when I turn around."
Zhou Huai'an was relieved to hold down the other party.
"Also, don't use the stupid big name."
"From now on, you'll be called Sha Da,"
"Silly calf, don't thank you yet."
Next to it, there was an envious assist
"The head of the pipe is one of the best in the camp, and there are learned people."
"Gnawing your name, that's the boss's blessing"
"Wouldn't that be the same as my dead father."
The stupid big man couldn't help but laugh on the spot.
"I'm going to be obedient."
Zhou Huai'an couldn't help but smile and said nothing, at least for him, this tenacious man who dared to fight with a strong enemy, it was too wasteful to be a stand-in, and it could be cultivated as a sign of personal guards.
On the other side, Qin Chou, the northern captive who was wrapped in a ball of hands and feet, also struggled to open his puffy eyelids and woke up leisurely under a basin of cold water.
"Qin Datou, Qin Dog."
Cheng Da Bite, who was hanging on his arms, stood on the side, shouting with hatred on his face
"Do you remember grandpa?"
"What are you, dare to stain my eyes?
Qin Chou, who was still bleeding from his wounds and was dying, turned around and leaned against a stone, but he said with contemptuous spittle.
"Lao Tzu will be planted in your hands,"
"What about me?"
Lao Guan, who was bandaged all over his body, was also leaning on with the support of others.
"I remember you, dog, standing in the saddle and holding the thief's boots."
"It turned out that you were the one who led the horse. Dead Eye"
Only then did the other party seem to recognize Lao Guanlai, and he couldn't help but smile miserably because of the bruises on his face
"I'm still so depressed in the grass thief.."
"Since it fell into your hands, it was also my bad luck. So what else is there to say?"
"At this point, it's also a reincarnation of retribution."
Lao Guan's voice became more and more urgent
"Don't you have the slightest remorse."
"Repentant, why should I repent."
"I need to repent of what I need to do to you mud-legged people."
"My life's future and net worth are all given and supported by the Lord."
"If the general wants me to kill the official, I will kill the official, and if you want me to kill the thief, I will kill the thief,"
"As long as the grace is enough, even if the mother is in the way, it is not impossible to kill."
Then, he paused and sneered
"Could it be that you stupid mud legs really believe the vain words of the day to make up the average?"
"Haha, it's really ridiculous in the world."
"Only the gold, the children, and the goods are what our generation really wants."
"Even if I am humiliated by you at this moment, I have already used most of it."
"It's really worth this life. Hahaha"
Then his laughter turned into a painful scream, because Zhou Huai'an no longer knew when he stood by and stepped on his wound hard.
"Ah sorry, I didn't know that a defeated dog who was a prisoner of the ladder still had this kind of consciousness and spirit."
I saw him say with an expressionless face.
"Come on, let's have a good chat when we come back, I really have too many questions and ideas that I want to dig out in you."
"Let's see if I can hold on a little longer with my hard mouth."
"Give him restraints, the kind that can effectively prevent self-harm, suicide, and make people feel the most pain."
But Lao Guan and the others had a somewhat surprised expression, because it was rare to see this monk Guan Tou really angry or when he was in a good way; Most of the time, it always looks like everything is meaningless, and the appearance of peace of mind is confident; This time it was obviously an accident, and then it spontaneously turned into some kind of heartfelt feeling and inexplicable touch, why should it be so for their subordinates.
Of course, Zhou Huai'an didn't know the psychological changes of these subordinates, he didn't hesitate to jump out to play some kind of villain role, but he really hated this kind of so-called "villains are talking a lot", and these subordinates in the righteous army are all clumsy and not good at words; If he really continues to use the topic to continue to play nonsense, I am afraid that the high morale of this obviously great victory will be dealt a blow and subsided.
"Next, I'll tell you about the fact that you rushed forward without being ordered."
After letting people take away such trouble and retreat left and right, Zhou Huaian sighed at Lao Guan and Chengda who stayed behind
"I don't know what grievances and past you have..."
"But because of the encirclement, the casualties of many brothers because of your persistence are real."
"Let's hope this is the last time."
"If you still want to recognize me as the head of the pipe,"
"The head of the pipe is serious, but this time it was we who did a bad job"
Lao Guan bowed his head and admitted it quite bummerly.
"I'll go get a military law when I get back. Set an example for everyone. ”
"I was impulsive and asserted on my own, and I should have accepted punishment."
Cheng Da bite is also a low voice
"As soon as you are punished by military law, please deal with me first."
"That's good. Thirty strokes for each of you. ”
Zhou Huai'an nodded.
"But the army must not be slack, so get ten sticks first, and write down the others to see the after-effects."
"Let's use it in the lifeguard team and clean up the wounded for a month."
"Okay."
"Ordered."
This is their unanimous answer, and it seems that there is an illusion of being a little closer
After dealing with and pressing this matter in a few words, he got a confession from the captive and was also sent over, combined with Lao Guan and Cheng Da Bite's statements, Zhou Huai'an finally knew the ins and outs of this matter.
This enemy general who led hundreds of people to resist stubbornly in a corner of the dock, and in turn killed and injured many righteous soldiers, was a subordinate of Bi Shiduo, the commander of Huainan Metropolitan Soldiers, and Qin Chou, the capital of Tianchang; In a sense, if a group or organization hates the most, it is undoubtedly a traitor, and as a rebel, there is no exception.
This Bi Shiduo is one of the models, to say that he was once a veteran general of the Righteous Army, and he was also one of the first old people to follow the general Wang Xianzhi to raise troops, and he was even older than the current general Huang Chao. Because in the early years, he fought bravely and fiercely under the command of Wang Xianzhi, and won the nickname of "Bi Harrier", and was able to lead a team of soldiers and horses alone;
Later, Wang Xianzhi was defeated and died in Huangmei County, Jingbei, and he defected to Huangchao with Shang Rang as the head of the old Wang clan entrenched in Yahawthorn Mountain; is regarded as a weighty and influential mountain figure in the rebel army; It's just that later, when he moved to Fujian, because he was defeated one after another at the hands of Zhang Luan, the general under Gao Piao, the then Zhenhai Jiedu envoy, he began to have different thoughts and thoughts about the pessimistic and disappointed future.
Then in the Battle of Fuzhou, he was persuaded by Liang Zhan, another of Gao Yu's henchmen Mingzhou Observer, with a high-ranking official Houlu; Under his leadership and call, more than 20 leaders of the rebel army, including Li Hanzhi, Qin Yan, Xu Qing, and Zheng Hanzhang, led their troops out of the city and surrendered the official army.
Not only betrayed the rear of Huangchao, which was attacking southward, but also attacked the old and weak women and children who were left behind by the rebels with a counterattack, causing many of the rebels to lose their relatives and families.
Therefore, in addition to the traditional official army, the enemy who is more bitter and bitter is undoubtedly the traitor who betrayed the friendly army in the Battle of Da Yuling, and most of the broken men and horses, including the old Angry Wind Battalion, were almost wiped out. As the saying goes, a traitor is more hateful and destructive than an enemy.
And this time in the rebellion of the coastal states of Lingdong, there was actually a shadow of Bi Shiduo's department; And this general Qin Chou, together with another brother Qin Yan, was one of the most powerful minions under Bi Shiduo, and one of the dozens of rebel leaders who defected to the imperial court at the beginning; This couldn't help but make the old soldiers of the original angry wind battalion under Zhou Huai'an angry in their hearts and feel the same hatred for the enemy.
And this Tianchang will be Qin Chou, and his ability to be a native of Pengcheng, Xuzhou, is Pang Xun's fellow countryman; Later, he followed his brother Qin Yan, who was in the local army. Hundreds of outlaws were gathered, attacked and killed the next order, stole military funds and defected to Wang Xianzhi, and were assigned to Bi Shiduo's department.
Therefore, after Bi Shiduo led the people to defect to the official army, because of the merit of the remnants, after Bi Shiduo was sent by the Huainan Governor's soldiers and horses, Qin Yan also had to be assassinated by Hezhou, and Qin Chou became the third ranked Tianchang Commander under the command of the Huainan Commander's Soldiers and Horses, relying on the team and foundation.
"That's what that's normal."
Zhou Huai'an couldn't help but say to himself in his heart,
"It's actually a former elite soldier who defected to the official army."
"No wonder they are so familiar with the way these rebels fight, and can support them for a long time with the support of outnumbered enemies."
After all, if it is such a difficult character to come out casually in the official army, it will be a hellish difficulty for these peasant troops, a world full of extreme malice. There's nothing worth continuing to mess around, and you need to run away right away to avoid it.
More than half of the casualties in the attack on Fengling Port this time were caused by the encirclement and annihilation of these trapped beasts and fighting officers and soldiers, and the individual casualty ratio even reached the level of 3 to 4 to 1, which also exposed the obvious lack of stamina of these peasant rebel troops, the weakness of being unable to endure drowning battles, and the defects of being difficult to sustain in the face of adversity.
However, it also gave Zhou Huaian the most intuitive feeling and experience of the elite combat effectiveness of the regular officer army; It seems that in the case of not being able to make up for the gap in physical fitness for a while, it is still necessary to think of a new way to improve the bonuses brought by reasonable tactical skills and improved equipment.
This requires a relatively stable territory and a continuous supply of materials, at least in the current environment of relying on plundering in mobile warfare, it is difficult to complete the investment and accumulation consistently.
If you can light up the firearm technology tree, even if it is the most primitive firearm, it means that no matter how strong you are, you will be knocked down by a chemically powered projectile, or the possibility and probability of blowing up.
Speaking of blowing up, Zhou Huaian suddenly had some ready-made ideas, which were also supported by a realistic basis, but it also took time to prepare and try. It was only at this moment that a column of smoke suddenly rose from the sea in the distance, and it was in the direction of the big ship.
