On the ninth day of the first month of March, it is cloudy, and it is appropriate to sacrifice and kill animals.

Ye Xiurong, the former general of the Song Dynasty, surrendered to the Yuan Dynasty after the Battle of the Mountains, and was ordered to blend into the Haifeng Juyi Qunhao, and was recognized and insisted on by the old minister. On the ninth day of the first month, the head of the owl sacrificed the flag, with a strong line.

The raid plan is largely unchanged, with a few minor changes. The original plan was that Chen Zan led 800 Ferris Zhai Ruishi to break into Chen Yi's den in Baishipo, Dongling, and his deputy was Fang Yulong - the reason for this arrangement was that Fang Yulong was given some credit for the profits, after all, it was the information he provided; The second is that Fang Yulong is a genuine general, who has been in the army for more than ten years, and is a veteran army who has been boiling from a big soldier to a ready general. This person is a good hand in marching and fighting, and he can assist Chen Zan very well in this operation.

This arrangement was originally very good, but before leaving, the commander-in-chief Jiang Fenglie and the deputy commander Chen Zan proposed to change Zhang Wenxiu to be the deputy, and Fang Yulong accompanied Jiang Fenglie and other heroes to respond.

This change was obviously unexpected by the group of heroes, but what was even more surprising was that although Fang Yulong was a little reluctant, he didn't make a fuss, and he accepted it very face-savingly.

At three o'clock, a few rays of sunlight leaked out between the thick clouds and sprinkled on the top of the hillside.

Zhao Lie soaked up the sun and looked at the long dragon-like team at the foot of the mountain.

This team did not have a uniform uniform, but mostly wore gray, black, white, brown and other coarse cloth single clothes, some black cloth wrapped in the head, some gray belt to tie the forehead, and the calf was tied with a belt, and the dress was very simple and neat. Their weapons were as simple as their attire, with clubs, forks, wooden-handled guns, wood knives, sickles, bamboo bows, and so on. Zhao Lie even saw that some people didn't have any weapons, only a large bundle of thick ropes on their backs.

The entire team was barely armoured - "almost" because there were still a few people wearing armor.

Chen Zhan, the owner of the village, is wearing a cowhide armor, and there are two fine iron round guards on his chest, and his helmet is also a leather helmet. Two of his henchmen were also in leather armor, but a little shabby. However, the group of guards who followed them were uniformly dressed, armed with swords and bows, and in good spirits.

Seeing this "sharp soldier", Zhao Lie could only say that "the momentum is sharp", and he couldn't say anything else.

Shi Yang, who was on the side, saw Zhao Lie's tightly knit brows, and hurriedly stepped forward to cheer up: "Zhao Tou, don't worry, the equipment of the Chaoyang thief is not much better." There are more of us than them, and a few of them are waiting for him, so it's not like he can beat him as much as he wants. ”

Ding Xiaoqi came over curiously: "How does Brother Shi know?" ”

Shi Yang smiled: "I have beaten these thieves." ”

"How to fight, tell me quickly." Ding Xiaoqi listened to the story most actively, and hurriedly pulled Shi Yang aside.

Zhao Lie turned his head to look at Ma Nanchun: "There are more of us than them, a few of us are waiting for him, and he can beat him as much as he wants." Well? ”

The same words, Shi Yang said like cheering, but when they came out of Zhao Lie's mouth, they were faintly bantering.

Ma Nanchun stroked his beard, which was blown by the mountain wind, looked at the marching team intently, and said after a while: "Shi Yang's news is outdated. According to the news of the black crow, Chen Yi was meritorious in leading troops to break the Song army, in addition to getting a thousand names, he also received some trophies rewards, standard swords, guns and bows, and 100 pairs of armor. To use an inappropriate analogy, in terms of equipment alone, they are more like the Song army and we are like thieves......"

"Yesterday I saw that you were full of confidence."

"Because regardless of the equipment gap, we are ten times more numerous than the thieves."

Indeed, the huge superiority in numbers can compensate for the lack of equipment, not to mention the ......

Ma Nanchun suddenly pointed forward and smiled: "What's more, our people and horses may not all be like Ferris Zhaiding." ”

Zhao Lie turned his head and saw that behind the Ferris Village team, a fiery red banner appeared, with tassels fluttering, yellow tiger-shaped patterns in the middle, and a huge "Jiang" character was particularly eye-catching. The banner was in the hands of a strong man with a tiger's back and a bear's waist, and behind him was a team wearing white suits, white stripes and foreheads, draped in standard weapons, and marching in order. Nearly half of them wore simple half-body armor and carried wooden shields, as well as primary weapons (knives) and secondary weapons (spears).

This team was superior to Chen Zhan's escort team in terms of equipment and spirit, and was farther than those villagers, and the number of the team was as high as 200.

Jiang Fenglie's guard.

If there are really "sharp people" in this gathering, I am afraid that there are only more than 200 people.

It was the first time for Ding Xiaoqi to see such an elite and neat team, his eyes were shining for a long time, and he lowered his head sullenly.

Ding Xiaoyiqi said: "What's wrong? Not good enough for this team? ”

"No, it's great."

"Then why not be happy? It can't be because that skinny guy kicked you yesterday, right? Sister, I'm angry for you. ”

"It's not." Ding Xiaoqi sighed and touched the shotgun in his back pocket, "I thought I would have a chance to test the gun this time...... This team is so powerful, I'm afraid I won't have a chance. ”

Over there, Ma Nanchun also smiled and pointed to the team: "Eight hundred Zhaiding, two hundred elites, three times as many as thieves, does the virtuous brother think that thieves still have a chance?" ”

Zhao Lie shook his head: "I don't know, I haven't fought." ”

Ma Nanchun squinted at him: "Then you will always count, right?" ”

Zhao Lie said lightly: "It's a pity that fighting is not counting. If numbers can determine the outcome of a war, then as long as the two sides show the carriages and horses, count each other, and the side with fewer people will automatically surrender, wouldn't the war be much simpler? ”

Ma Nanchun smiled, shook his head and said, "Brother Xian seems to have been not very optimistic about this battle. Why? ”

Zhao Lie spread his hands: "I said that I don't know how to fight, and I can't talk about it." It's just that I want to ask, we will attack at this time, and it will take two or three hours to catch up on the thirty-mile mountain road...... Uh, an hour or two. If I'm not mistaken, it's a night raid, right? ”

"It's a night attack. Dongling Mountain is precipitous, the mountains around Baishipo are deep and dense, insects are like hemp, it is especially dangerous at night, so the thieves do not dare to flee into the back mountain after defeat, only surrender. ”

"Although I don't know how to fight, it's taboo to wear white clothes at night." Zhao Lie clasped his arms in his hands, and nodded his chin towards the white-clothed team, "This General Jiang's escort team is white-clothed, why?" ”

Ma Nanchun stared at Zhao Lie for a while, and laughed: "Who said you don't know how to fight, I think you understand it." You can understand, Jiang Shiyi has been fighting with his father for three years, how can he not understand? ”

Zhao Lieqi said: "Why is that? ”

Two words burst out of Ma Nanchun's mouth: "Mourning." ”

Zhao Lie was stunned, and only exhaled for a while, but he couldn't say anything.

After the long line passed, three people appeared at the end of the line, and the middle one was Jiang Fenglie. He changed into a white power suit, a dark cloak, the same white stripe on his forehead, and a sword hanging from his waist, full of heroic spirit. On the left is Fang Yulong, and on the right is Zhang Wenxiu. Both of them wore half-body leather armor, a lower armor skirt, and a hand knife at their waists, both of which were Song military standards.

Fang Yulong looked at this side, his face was gloomy.

Zhao Lie knew why, because before departure, he changed the plan and replaced Fang Yulong with Zhang Wenxiu, but it was Ma Nanchun who raised objections. It is quite inappropriate to think that Fang Yulong's guards are unruly, and even the officials of the court dare to attack, so a fierce servant, and the master will accompany him to attack.

As soon as these heart-wrenching words came out, Ren Fang Yulong was reluctant, so he could only take the initiative to retreat. There was a temporary change in the course of action.

Fang Yulong saw this as Ma Nanchun's revenge. Only Zhao Lie knew that Ma disdained to play this kind of painless revenge. The one who proposed to remove Fang Yulong was Mr. Ritsu Zhai, who was always shrouded in a black robe. After he looked for Ma Nanchun last night, the next day, Ma Nanchun raised an objection.

Ma Nanchun's statement to Zhao Lie is that no matter what Mr. Ritsu Zhai's starting point is, anyway, he can give some eye medicine to the person who wants to put himself to death, why not?

It is the Jiang family's intention to withdraw Fang Yulong, and changing the chapter Wenxiu is Chen Zhan's request. Zhang Wenxiu also participated in the Battle of Yushan, and his position was the battalion headquarters of Yuhou, which was equivalent to Ye Xiurong. He is the only general with battlefield experience other than Jiang Fenglie, Fang Yulong, and Ye Xiurong. Chen Zan nodded generally, which is reasonable.

Jiang Fenglie said something to Zhang Wenxiu sideways, occasionally turned his head and smiled at Zhao Lie and the others. The black-robed old man followed him not far away, with beads in his hand, and his eyes never seemed to open, so no one could see anything from his eyes.

Zhao Lie suddenly beckoned Ding Xiaoyi and said with a smile: "Yesterday, your shot showed your face greatly, and it is estimated that there will be many people who will look for you in the future, and there may be no shortage of big people." ”

Ding Xiaoyi's face was a little red, he helped the shotgun on his shoulder, rolled his big eyes, and said, "Then should I give a shot to those who come to get close?" ”

Zhao Lie: "......"
