Chapter 60: Suddenly
"How many people came?" Monk Kong stood up suddenly. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Big boss! It's dense, it looks like there must be more than 300 people! The pony thief thought for a moment and replied.
As soon as he heard that more than 300 officials and troops were coming, Monk Kong was a little flustered, but when he turned around, he saw that Sima Luo was still holding his long hair, shaking his feather fan gently, and acting as a dog-headed military teacher, so he asked eagerly: "Mr. Sima, will Ji An come out?" ”
"Don't panic, wait for the students to ask!" Sima Rotten pretended to be a wise bead in his hand. Then he turned to the little horse thief and asked, "Let me ask you, are there any cavalry coming from this group of officers and soldiers?" ”
"I saw only seven or eight horsemen, and the rest were all infantry." The pony thief replied after a moment's thought.
"Oh!" Sima Luo frowned and began to think.
"Hahaha, the students have a good plan today, and they will definitely make this group of officers and soldiers come and go!" In less than half a moment, Sima Lang had an idea, and shook the feather fan even more forcefully.
Monk Kong immediately stepped forward, with a humble and clear demeanor: "Please come here, sir!" ”
Sima Rotten attached himself to Monk Kong's ear, and said in detail like this. Monk Kong immediately showed joy and called a group of brothers to make arrangements.
Chen Ming and Zhu Lei led the bandit brigade to advance to two hundred meters away from the gate of the cottage, and were about to arrange for the army to attack the village, but they heard the sound of a piano.
Looking for prestige, I saw an old man in a white robe, with his hair scattered and sitting on the earthen platform on the gate of the village.
"I'm grass! Did you meet Zhuge Kongming? Do you want to sing me an empty city plan? Both of them had a strange feeling in their hearts.
A group of officers and soldiers were also disturbed by this Sima rotten pretense: Lao Tzu came to beat you bandits, and you set up a stage for Lao Tzu?
In confusion, the gate of the cottage suddenly opened, and a crooked-eyed monk with a shiny face walked out on a tall horse.
I could only hear him shouting, "Hey! The officers and soldiers on the opposite side listened! You and I have no enemies in the past, and there are no grievances in the near future, why do you commit my copycat? ”
"Damn, have you watched too much drama! Prepare bows and arrows for Lao Tzu! Chen Ming ordered.
"Who will dare to fight me?" This monk Kong shouted again.
When Chen Ming heard this, he almost smiled crookedly, and immediately ordered the army to move forward. It doesn't matter if your mother is an empty city plan or Zhuge Liang, Lao Tzu will beat you directly!
But I have to admit that the two of them, Monk Kong and Si Luo, did achieve the purpose of confusing the soldiers of the bandit brigade, and also made the officers relax their vigilance.
"Fight!" I only heard Monk Kong shouting, and a team of horse thieves screamed, and suddenly rushed out from both sides of the gate of the cottage.
Taking advantage of the terrain superior to the bandit suppression brigade, more than 30 horse thieves rushed on horseback, and the sound of horses' hooves rumbled, which frightened many recruits in front of them with weak legs.
The sudden change made Chen Ming have no time to deal with the arrangement, and the horse thieves in front had rushed to the front row of recruits and directly trampled over more than a dozen soldiers. The recruits who turned around and ran around, more than a dozen of them were also cut down by horse thieves with knives. Of course, the horse thief also slowed down after this stop.
Although the bandit brigade had fought a lot of battles, it had never fought against the cavalry, and the entire army was in a panic.
"Raise your spear forward!" A voice shouted.
I saw Xiong Wenjie and Huang Qingqing, with more than 20 soldiers of the personal guards, rushing out from the center. Soon rushed into the horse thieves who had lost their speed, and the soldiers of the personal guard, who had experienced more battles, were extremely strong, and saw their spears stab out quickly, and soon stabbed more than a dozen horse thieves off the horse on the spot.
"Run!" One of the horse thieves saw that something was wrong, and shouted as he pulled his horse and ran back.
But it took time for the horses to turn around, and in the intervening moments seven or eight more horse thieves were stabbed by the soldiers of the Guard.
Seeing that the horse thief was defeated, Chen Ming also reacted, and hurriedly ordered all teams to be on guard, and at the same time collected the soldiers and wounded who died in battle.
When Xiong Wenjie and the others saw the horse thieves retreating, leaving more than 20 horses behind, they all smiled, and stepped forward one by one to hold the reins and control these overwhelmed horses.
Xiong Wenjie and four or five local guards who could ride horses immediately turned over their horses and stood guard at the gate of the cottage. Chen Ming also ordered the mounted sentinels to assemble and hand them over to Xiong Wenjie to command the enemy.
Considering that the strength of this group of horse thieves was unknown, Chen Ming ordered Xiong Wenjie to take more than a dozen horseback soldiers on guard, and ordered the veteran teams to cover and retreat alternately.
After a brief period of panic, he was also in good order.
Hearing that Chen Ming, Zhu Lei and the others were going to pass by, Wang Rui's tense face finally showed a smile: "It's not too bad!" Xiong Wenjie and Huang Haiqing's performance is very exciting! Record: Give a small credit to the participating team of the pro-guard team once, and issue the corresponding bonus medal! ”
Xiong Wenjie and Huang Haiqing, who were praised, both had a bright light in their happy eyes. Huang Haiqing said happily: "My lord, can you organize a cavalry team, and if you encounter the enemy's cavalry in the future, you can ride and fight against the enemy!" ”
Wang Rui smiled and pointed at Huang Haiqing and said, "I have this thought." But, let's talk about it, what do we do now? ”
Everyone looked left and right, and they didn't know what to do for a while.
"My lord! This group of thieves has just defeated Mr. Chen, and now the defense must be the lightest, let's simply take advantage of the fact that this group of horse thieves has not escaped, and immediately attack this so-called 'Juyi Mountain' and take them by surprise! The dragon's resolute voice came.
When he was attacked by the Japanese invaders before, after defeating the Japanese invaders, he then led the team to participate in the attack on Zhaojiazhuang, so he was very decisive and had quite a lot of experience in surprise attacks.
"Oh! Tell me your reasons and general battle plan! Wang Rui patted Long Duanyu, who was sitting next to him, on the shoulder encouragingly.
Looking at everyone's expectant eyes, Long Duyu realized Lord Wang's love for himself, and knew that Lord Wang wanted him to show himself in front of everyone.
He organized the language in his heart for a while, and then said very seriously: "First, this gang of horse thieves will not think that we will go and return so quickly, the soldiers are very fast, at most they can prepare for half an hour, and they can set off immediately, so that they can arrive after midnight and attack at night!" ”
"You can grab some more horses!" Huang Haiqing interjected excitedly.
"Haha, you're thinking about horses all day long! Your horse will be indispensable in the future! We already have plans to develop cavalry! Wang Rui said with a smile.
"Second, our army marches fast and can fight at night, not to mention bandits and bandits, even other officers and soldiers around here, no one can compare. This will bring into full play the combat power of our army. After attacking at night, as long as the horse thieves do not get on their horses, they will be a pile of tofu scum in front of our army's spears and crossbows! Long Dulu then added.
"Yes, all right! You go and send out soldiers who can fight at night, and you can also pick out some recruits who can walk at night, so that they can also get a workout! The Junior Guards Battalion can also draw some able-bodied men to fight with them. Wang Rui quickly made arrangements.
"My lord, we also ask to go to war!" "Yes, yes!" Let's get up where we fall! Chen Ming and Zhu Lei hurriedly said.
"Good! Go and don't discourage yourselves! Give him a backhand blow! Wang Rui thought about it and agreed.
