Chapter 122: Retreat from the Enemy
Zhu Long was scared and sweated, this arrow was a little bit downward, and it would definitely pass through his head, and the fool understood that this was the other party's intimidation, and the meaning was very clear, if you attack again, I will shoot you immediately. Compared with Zhu Long and Zhu Biao, it was even more miserable, his shoulder was injured, and the cold sweat of the pain in the cold weather flowed, but he was also a martial arts practitioner and gritted his teeth and persisted.
Pang Wanchun turned around and went back after shooting three arrows, and Chao Gai began to arrange his troops.
"Chao Ran."
"Yes."
"Order you to lead a hundred people from the headquarters to keep an eye on Zhujiazhuang's team, dare to make a move to kill Zhu Hu first, and then kill Zhu Long and Zhu Biao, and you must not let Zhujiazhuang's team rush over." Chao Gai ordered.
"Yes." Chao Ran responded.
Chao Gai led the remaining more than 120 people to turn their heads to deal with the double gun general Dong Ping behind, Dong Ping is known as the merry double gun general, not only a personal bravery, but also a person who can use soldiers, with more than 100 soldiers are all veterans for several years, murderous, this pressure is greater than more than 1,000 people in Zhujiazhuang.
Chao Gai took the lead, followed by Jiao Ting, Li Kui, Pang Wanchun, and Zheng Tianshou, followed by sixty cavalry archers, and dozens of sword and shield fighters, and Dong Ping's team on the opposite side, with a great momentum.
Speaking of the team of Zhujiazhuang in the back, Zhu Biao shouted: "Brother, attack, take Chao Gai in one fell swoop." β
Zhu Long scolded: "Are you still obsessed at this time, just now it was the mercy of others, otherwise our three brothers would have died a long time ago." β
Zhu Biao said: "If we retreat at this time, can Dong Ping spare us?" β
Luan Tingyu said: "Chao Gai is an official of the imperial court, Dong Ping may not be able to bargain for him, you have also seen the archery skills of the archer just now, it is still a question whether Dong Ping can go back alive, you can leave quickly while Hu Sanniang's people have not come up." β
"Then where are you, Sect Leader Luan?" Zhu Long asked.
Luan Tingyu said: "I'm here to watch the situation, if there is no problem for a while, I will bring the second son back, and the second son is in their hands." β
Zhu Long said: "Since this is the case, then my third brother and I will withdraw first, and there will be Lao Luan's sect leader." β
Zhujiazhuang people whistled, the tide retreated, Hu Sanniang brought people over to fight with the Yuncheng regimental practice, this time Dong Ping was dumbfounded, jumped to scold his mother, and thanked Zhulong's eight ancestors.
After a long absence, Hu Sanniang looked at Chao Gai in front of her, as if she had a million words to say, but this place was not the place to speak.
The two armies are facing each other, a stone's throw away. Chao Gai smiled: "General Dong Ping, don't come unharmed." β
Dong Ping said: "Okay, it's very good, what is the so-called thing that Chao Tuanlian brought troops to my Dongping Mansion to rule." β
"Haha, can't you come to visit relatives? Why do you have to ask you with the troops, if it weren't for the three stupid boys of your Cong Zhu family, I would have brought the troops here? You still have to think about how to explain to Cheng Taishou after you go back, unfortunately you can't keep your official hat. Chao Gai laughed.
Dong Ping was angry for a while, red and green, it seemed that Chao Gai already knew about this matter, could this Chao Gai be able to pinch it.
In fact, Chao Gai can't be pinched and won't be counted, this is all the credit of the Intelligence Department. Li Han set up the intelligence department, as a hidden organization, Chao Gai invested a lot of money and energy, Li Han did not disappoint Chao Gai, the intelligence work is getting better and better, and it is becoming more and more a bit of an intelligence department. For example, this time, the intelligence department began to investigate early in the morning, and the reason for the incident was quickly revealed.
It turns out that the skills of the three brothers of Zhujiazhuang are very good, and they are also the bosses of the three villages in Dulonggang, as the governor of Dongping Mansion, Dong Ping, who naturally knows the three brothers of Zhujiazhuang, met Zhu Biao when he was drinking flower wine in the Qinglou, Zhu Biao inadvertently talked about the marriage between Hu Sanniang and Chao Gai, who he liked, and was very annoyed. Dong Ping is annoyed with Chao Gai, after Chao Gai rescued the prefect's daughter Cheng Wan last time, Cheng Wan gradually became bored with Dong Ping, and became more and more estranged. In addition, last time in the suppression of the bandits in Qingfeng Mountain, Dong Ping found that Chao Gai's power was getting stronger and stronger, and I believe that it would not take long to surpass him Dong Ping. So Dong Ping said, I also want to get rid of Chao Gai.
The two hit it off, but Chao Gai stayed in Yuncheng most of the time, and the Yuncheng regiment trained more than 1,000 cavalry, infantry, and naval troops, even if Dong Ping and Zhujiazhuang led all the soldiers and horses, they might not have been able to fight, and even if they did, they would cause great trouble, not to mention that these two people didn't plan to rebel, they just wanted to kill Chao Gai.
Zhu Biao's eyes rolled, saying that his fiancΓ©e was in Hujiazhuang, we bullied his fiancΓ©e, and he would definitely come to help, and when we fought with him, you led the troops to kill Chao Gai, and said that this arson was not only innocent, but also meritorious.
Dong Ping was very happy, and promised that as long as he killed Chao Gai, he would arrange a military position for the three brothers of the Zhu family, it would definitely be impossible to get higher, but it was no problem to arrange a head, after all, the three brothers of the Zhu family could also be regarded as people with some martial arts.
The two agreed that implementation would begin immediately. Just Zhujiazhuang was ready to plant thousands of acres of pepper orchards, which deliberately provoked a dispute with Hujiazhuang, Hu Cheng was not at home, Hu Sanniang was lonely, and he wrote a letter to Chao Gai as a matter of course.
The original foolproof thing was actually full of loopholes, Dong Ping showed the wisdom of Chao Gai's military division, and Zhu Wu saw through this matter at a glance. In addition, Hu Sanniang's original personal maid Zhang Lan is Li Kui's wife, Zhang Lan grew up in Hujiazhuang since she was a child and is very familiar with the terrain here, so Chao Gai sent her to communicate with Hu Sanniang in advance, and saw through Zhujiazhuang's strategy, so she came up with a series of plans.
Dong Ping saw that Zhu Long led people to retreat, and knew that there was no drama this time, although he was a little worried about how to explain to Cheng Zhifu after he went back, but he still didn't want to miss this good opportunity in front of him, even if he couldn't kill Chao Gai, he had to humiliate and humiliate him.
Dong Ping said: "I've always heard that you've been practicing painting halberds recently, and I don't know how hot it is." β
"Do you want to try?" Chao Gai said coldly.
"That's exactly what I mean."
Chao Gai urged the horse to go to fight Dong Ping, Zheng Tianshou said: "My brother just fought with Luan Tingyu, and his strength was damaged, so don't be fooled by him." β
Pang Wanchun said: "I'll meet him." β
"No, your strengths are in the bow and arrows, give up your strengths, compare your weaknesses with his strengths, and you can have any hope of victory. You watch from the sidelines, and if I am defeated, you can release arrows to save me. Chao Gai said.
Pang Wanchun said: "Brother, rest assured, Wanchun will not be dishonored." β
The big black horse rushed over like a meteor, and Dong Ping also came to the middle of the formation with two guns.
The two horses stopped, and Chao Gai said: "Let's do it first, count me as bullying you, and let you make three moves." β
If you shoot first, the other party will use one gun to parry, and the other gun is only for you, at this time the attacker has no weapon to defend, and the average person is suddenly hit. Therefore, when encountering a general with two guns, you generally can't shoot first, and you have to wait for the opponent to strike first.
Dong Ping saw that Chao Gai saw through his measurements, and immediately attacked like a rain of guns. Chao Gai's painting halberd waved the sky and the shadows of the halberd parried one by one. Chess opponents will meet good talents, this fight is thirty rounds in an instant, Chao Gai is addicted, Dong Ping is an expert in using guns, take the technical route, and have been in the army for many years with exquisite martial arts and two guns, and feel that it is stronger than Luan Tingyu.
Although Chao Gai is ashamed of his skills alone, but fighting a war is not a single skill, Chao Gai transports huge strength, dang, dang, dang. The halberd and Dong Ping's twin guns kept colliding, and Dong Ping's arm was numb with huge strength. Dong Ping is depressed, this is a martial arts battle, or a blacksmith shop to fight iron, this battle can't be fought, Chao Gai's strength is better than Dong Ping's, Dong Ping gradually can't bear it.
Dong Ping turned the horse's head and walked away. Chao Gai stopped the horse and didn't chase after him, he took out the cloud chasing moon bow from his back, and pulled the bow, and the frightened Dong Ping hurriedly lay on the horse's back.
"Haha." Chao Gai laughed. It turned out that Chao Gai didn't hold an arrow at all.
Dong Ping scolded: "Damn, dare to tease me." β
"If you are allowed to fail, I will not be allowed to release empty arrows, go back quickly, otherwise Governor Cheng and the others will be in a hurry, and your official position will really not be saved." Chao Gai said.
Dong Ping has the heart to fight again, it is a draw, and it is difficult to win Chao Gai, let alone a group fight, several of Dong Ping's lieutenants are all martial arts overturners.
"Hmph, I'll see you later." Dong Ping said that he would leave with the team.
Chao Gai came back, and Hu Sanniang asked, "It's okay, I heard that this Dong Ping is very powerful." β
"It's okay, no matter how good it is, I'll beat it away. Your injuries are fine. Chao Gai asked.
Hu Sanniang's face turned red, Hu Sanniang fell off the horse and fell on her buttocks, and said coquettishly: "I hate it." β
In front of the two armies, Chao Gai still has to maintain his demeanor, and it is not easy to be a general.
At this time, the soldiers came to report and said that Luan Tingyu asked to see him.
Chao Gai asked the soldiers to let Luan Tingyu come over, and Luan Tingyu dismounted from a distance to show his sincerity, and Chao Gai immediately dismounted.
Luan Tingyu hugged his fists and said: "King Chao has good skills, and he actually beat Dong Ping away with two guns." β
Chao Gai smiled: "It's all a coincidence, I told Dong Ping that I had already sent someone to Dongping Mansion to complain, he was mentally afraid, where would he dare to fight." But why didn't the head of the Luan sect go back with the Zhu brothers? β
Luan Tingyu sighed and said: "I have heard for a long time that Chao Tianwang is righteous, although the two families have a holiday, but there is no great hatred, as the so-called grievances should be resolved and not settled, why not stop and let go of Zhuhu." β
"Can't let it go, this kid actually dares to argue with us, we must cut him eight pieces." Li Kui shouted, "Otherwise, when we leave, Zhujiazhuang will bully Hujiazhuang again." β
Chao Gai said: "You also saw it just now, the Zhu brothers colluded with the scum in the official mansion to put me to death, and if it were you, what would you do." β
Luan Tingyu said: "If King Chao is only a person from the rivers and lakes, he should have killed Zhu Hu." But at present, Chao Tianwang is a group training in Yuncheng, how can he also be an official, if Chao Tianlian is not too troublesome, he will send Zhu Hu to the yamen. β
This Luan Tingyu is still quite cunning, Zhu Hu sent to the yamen is nothing more than a trial, not to mention that there are no serious consequences, so naturally he will not be sentenced to any punishment.
