Chapter 168: Suo Chao is very congested, and Dong Ping is very proud

ps: Chinese New Year's Eve, hello to everyone, I wish you all good health and a happy mood! Happy Chinese New Year's Eve! Happy New Year!

Just when Lin Chong and his gang came east to meet the Qingzhou soldiers and horses, Lu Qian carried Suo Chao and ordered the personal guard battalion, the seventh battalion, the eighth battalion, plus the four battalions of recruits, and also went west to meet the enemy from Puzhou.

This didn't seem to be in line with Lu Qian's previous strategy, but after the general information from Puzhou was transmitted to Liangshanbo, Lu Qian was moved. The Puzhou army is too forced.

This time, the Puzhou army dispatched 3,000 people, which is not a small number, not only Xu Ning was in the regimental training ranks, but Lu Yi, the supervisor of the Puzhou soldiers and horses, was also in the army.

But among these 3,000 people, in addition to the forbidden army of thousands of people, the rest are all Puzhou Tuyong.

As we all know, the forbidden army in Puzhou has been lost in half due to the previous transfer with the Jeju forbidden army. Therefore, it is not easy to piece together the forbidden army of thousands of people. As for the remaining 2,000 Tuyong, it is even more 'patchwork'.

Puzhou is not on the border, and there is no huge banditry, how can there always be a large number of Tuyong, most of these people are forcibly recruited from various counties.

Therefore, although the number of these 3,000 people is quite a lot, they are vulnerable in Lu Qian's eyes.

By the way, they were not only vulnerable in the eyes of Lu Qian, but also in the eyes of the people of Yanggu County and Qinghe County. It was Xu Ning, the number two person in the army, and Lu Yi, the commander of the Puzhou soldiers and horses, who had no hope for their offensive along the way. If the armies of the five states gather, they can still shout "666" on the side, but can they fight independently, it's heheda.

That Lu Yi was born in the Hebei Forbidden Army, and he was naturally not a fool to be able to be the prisoner of soldiers and horses in such a heavy place as Puzhou. He knew in his heart that Xu Ning's martial arts were strong, much more than himself, and he was also very knowledgeable, so he relied on him very much; I also know that most of the 3,000 men and horses under his command are indiscriminate, and they must not be compared with the bandits, and bluntly said to him that this battle is not useful, but it is not wrong. If you want Xu Ning to lead the 500 forbidden army first, you must be cautious.

Xu Ning was not very moved. He has been in Puzhou for some time, how can he not know the personality of his boss? That's a master who needs people to be in the front, but not people to be in the back.

When he first arrived in Puzhou, this Lu Yi ignored him, and he had no comradeship at all. Gai knew that Xu Ning had offended Shangguan and had no bright future. Now I'm going to fight and serve, but I'm going to be a good person.

But Xu Ning thought that Lu Yi was unreliable, and he didn't expect that when he found out about the letter from the Liangshan army to the Puzhou army, he immediately sent someone to inform Lu Yi and asked him to march quickly and come to fight him. But the result was that Lu Yi and his men turned around and ran. And when Xu Ning knew the news, he couldn't run even if he wanted to.

The 500 forbidden army is actually a patchwork of two forbidden army battalions, and these two battalions were originally transferred from Jeju to Puzhou, and some of the veterans in them are the ghosts of the bottom of the kettle under Liang Shanbo. There are indeed some of the human armor in that step, but there are not even twenty divine arm bows, and Puzhou is not a very important town. After being surrounded by a large army, the Forbidden Army was already trembling. Xu Ning fought with Suo Chao for thirty or forty rounds, and there was no sign of defeat, and all his men surrendered.

Then after the golden gunner Xu Ning was aimed at by more than a dozen divine arm bows, he also sighed and dismounted to be bound.

He still trusted Lu Yi too much this time, so much so that he couldn't get up after being climbed into the pit. If Lu Qian is the likes of the Song River, the Golden Gunner will be 'in a catastrophe'.

But he's not.

After Suo Chao led the recruits of the fourth battalion to chase and kill Lu Yi, the veterans of the third battalion guarded the prisoners of war and built a camp, and in the tent of the Chinese army, Lu Qian personally untied Xu Ning. Seeing the courtesy, he said: "Xiao Ke Lu Qian, don't blame you for offending the teacher." ”

Xu Ning hurriedly returned the salute. Since falling into the encirclement of the Liangshan army, although Xu Ning felt embarrassed, he knew that he should not worry about his life. So when he fought against Suo Chao, he was not timid at all, he was engrossed, and he fought for dozens of rounds, and he did not fall behind at all. You know, this master can't be distracted at all.

And in a situation like his, it is like being in a desperate situation, and if you can do fifty percent of everything, you can get it. It's like that Fang Jie, who is Fang La's nephew, the so-called No. 1 general in the south, with the help of Du Wei's flying knife, a halberd will thunderbolt fire Qin Ming shrugged off the horse, and knocked Guan Sheng and Hua Rong hard, although it is inevitable to fall into the wind, it is difficult to see whether he wins or loses. In Song Jiang's team, Li Ying and Zhu Tong were sent out of the battle and chased and killed. Fang Jie saw that the four were about to attack, so he turned back the horse's head. was intercepted by the undercover Chai Jin, and those who were as strong as Fang Jie in martial arts dismounted in a panic and fled for their lives, so that they could make Chai Jin poke this kind of goods with one shot, and Yan Qing caught up with a knife and died. This fight is not confident at the time, which can be seen.

Speaking of which, the dozens of battles between Xu Ning and Suo Chao are not only not his shortcomings, but can make people look up to him even more.

The most direct proof is that Suo Chao failed to chase Lu Yi, led the troops back to the village, and when he saw Xu Ning in the Chinese military tent, his attitude was quite close, just because he admired the martial arts of the golden gunner.

At this time, Lu Qian had already made a decision with Xu Ning that he would let him leave tomorrow. only said that he fought all the way out of the encirclement, and as for the five hundred forbidden soldiers he led, he lost all of them.

This is normal. The entire Puzhou officialdom knows Xu Ning's martial arts. The teacher of the dignified Golden Gun class, that is the head of the emperor's close bodyguard, can he not be strong in martial arts? I'm afraid it's the number one in the huge city of Tokyo. And there is no leopard head by Lu Qian's side, two is no flower monk Lu Zhishen, a fierce general of the Western Army, and three is no Yang Zhi, a person with a good background, and there is only a small Suo Chao by his side. Before being promoted by Liang Zhongshu, he was only a legitimate soldier in the forbidden army of the Daimyo's Mansion, a figure the size of a sesame seed. can't resist Xu Ning's desperate onslaught, that's right.

"Teacher Xu is strong in martial arts, and his character is also loyal. It has a lot to do with my cottage, how did the big boss go? ”

Xu Ning turned down the tent to rest, and only Liang Shanbo and his people were left inside. Lu Qian is on top, Suo Chao, Song Wan, Xue Yong, Han Bolong, Guo Sheng and others are below. Suo Chao was the first to speak.

Since Lu Qian said 'great ambition' that day, Suo Chao has obviously raised his spirit. According to his opinion, Liangshanbo soldiers and horses are certainly strong, but the regret is that there is a shortage of masters. Look at the Manichaeism in the south of the Yangtze River, the top masters are like clouds, and they are not powerful. And what about Liangshan? Lin Chong, Lu Zhishen, Yang Zhi, Suo Chao, don't talk about anything else, just say that the powerful people in the official army in these states are not comparable to cottages. It's a pity to let go of Xu Ning, a person who is already inextricably linked to the cottage.

"Not to mention that Mrs. Xu just gave birth to a son, is it with Teacher Xu's temperament, An will go up the mountain?" Lu Qian smiled and said, Xu Ning is not desperate again. "If you are so unwilling, don't earn it, lest there be a gap and ruin the brotherhood of my generation."

Lu Qian's whole mood was very good, because when he was talking to Xu Ning in the tent, several prompts popped up in his head one after another, but it was Lin Chong and his gang on the East Road who had already defeated the Qingzhou Army. Although none of the three generals in Qingzhou have been caught, Lu Qian has already received the experience, but it is not less than the current one.

Lu Qian, who was in a good mood and believed in casting a long line to catch big fish, would naturally let Xu Ning go. This time the two sides only formed a friendship, and the next time it will be a matter of course. The leaders of the tent all agreed when they heard this.

Only Suo Chao was a little upset when he heard this. Those who are unwilling should not earn it, lest there be a gap and ruin the friendship between brothers and our generation. That's a nice thing to say, but look at him back then......

Suo Chao thought about it at that time, and he was indeed not forced to stay in the cottage, but that words were too different from the gentle drizzle that Lu Qian treated Xu Ning now. Suo Chao felt slightly sad when he thought about it, he just felt that he had been wronged.

Don't mention Lu Qian, just talk about the east road of the Liangshan army. easily defeated the Qingzhou soldiers and horses, killed four or five hundred people, and captured seven or eight hundred prisoners of war. But the losses suffered by the Liang Shan army were not small.

There were more than 70 dead soldiers in the battle array alone, and most of them were elites wearing foot armor. As for the injured, there are even more. After removing those skin wounds, it is only said that they must be nursed in the medical battalion with the army, and there are hundreds of people, of whom there are also thirty or twenty people who can be classified as seriously injured, and there will only be more deaths in the future. And in detail, whether killed or wounded, two-thirds come from arrows.

In the battle with the Qingzhou army, Liangshan suffered 200 casualties, compared with a military force with a land strength of up to 5,000 people, this number of casualties is not harmful. Although the war would cause the armor to be damaged, the Liangshan army pushed out the elite of the entire Qingzhou army, and the captures in this battle were far greater than their losses.

The stripped armor immediately became the equipment of the three main battle battalions, and the armor ratio of the three main battle battalions reached 100, even the iron armor exceeded 30%.

He called for the sailors to transport the wounded and prisoners of war back to Liangshan, but Lin Chong's troops remained in place, waiting for the Dongping army, which would arrive later. Unlike Lu Qian, after finishing the Puzhou army, he had to return to Liangshan. They started at the beginning, and the target was the Dongping Army + Qingzhou Army. Otherwise, how could ten battalion heads be pulled out at once?

The Qingzhou army knelt so simply, but no one thought about it. Qin Ming plus Dong Ping, the total strength is also four or five thousand.

But now half of the Qingzhou army has been defeated, and the rest are scattered, and by the time Dong Ping led the team to arrive, the remnants of Qin Ming's defeated generals totaled less than five hundred.

Dong Yibang is a very arrogant person, don't look at the two small flags planted behind him, just say that he thinks that Cheng Wanli's daughter is beautiful and goes to ask for marriage, which can be seen.

Who is Rencheng Wanli? Governor of Dongpyeongfu. And he was born in Mr. Tongguanfu's Shangmenguan, with a backstage and an official position. Even if it is impossible to climb to the two mansions in this life, how can people recruit a martial artist as a son-in-law with such a future? You Dong Ping is young and promising, clever in mind, three teachings and nine streams, omniscient, and everything is fine. But you're still a martial artist after all. In this Great Song Dynasty, the martial artists were born short of the literati. Just as Cheng Wanli did, I am a civilian official, and he is a military attaché. When someone gives birth to a beautiful girl, that's the capital. In the future, it is right to form a family affair with the sons and nephews of Tong Guan's cronies, or the outstanding descendants of his colleagues in the officialdom.

Dong Ping is not very old to climb to the position of the capital of soldiers and horses, of course, he is not stupid. repeatedly asked people to ask for marriage, but was rejected by Cheng Wanli, and he was infatuated, why is this? Although he is suspected of being embarrassed and difficult to sheath, he has a high vision, and he thinks that he can be worthy of the daughter of the Cheng family, and he is also tough.

Dongpyeongfu is closer to Jeju, and Dong Ping also knows Yangsanbo well. knows that the people of Liangshan should not be underestimated. However, it was the Qingzhou Army who shook his face first. The reason why Murong Yanda sent soldiers and horses to help Uncle Zhang go at night was not to sell Cai Jing, how could he be mixed with Tong Guanmen's belonging? Dong Ping may be aware of this, or he may not have come into contact with this level, but the fact is that the Qingzhou Army is not right first, and Dong Ping will not forget it.

For a character like him, the most important thing to remember is a face. If the Qingzhou army wins, Dong Ping has nothing to say. Now the Qingzhou army was beaten by the Liangshan army for a while, and the losses were extremely heavy, which made Dong Ping so ridiculous and unhappy.

"Hmph, my Dongping soldiers and horses and Qingzhou soldiers and horses are not related, how can I stick together and suppress the thieves? Don't you want your family to be under my orders? You go and tell the Qin commander, don't mention this matter. ”
