Chapter 235: South of the Battle City (3)
Huang Shao led people away very much, Liu Zheng heard the sound of "Gao Qu Shuai", and already understood that these people were really Yellow Turban thieves, but he didn't expect that he swept the gun, and a Qu Shuai died under his own gun.
It's just that even if Qu Shuai died, the people who came over with the shouts were a little crazy, but the noise in the distance was mixed but not chaotic. Those who were left behind lit torches and were gathering men, and those who left did not seem to be running away in a panic. After thinking about it again, it is obvious that the person who shouted just now is not the same person who died under the gun, that is, there are at least two Qu Shuai on the other side.
In the dark night, as the torches were lit in the distance, the carts loaded with things and the people with weapons from far and near became clearer, and the offensive of a group of people on the other side became more rapid and fierce as the vision became clearer. Liu Zheng had the heart to probe that the person who had just spoken out was still there, but at this time, the offensive was too fierce, and he didn't have time to speak, so he could only grit his teeth and raise his breath, clenched his gun and kept firing back and killing, but he didn't retreat or advance half a step, but just blocked everyone out of the road.
Huang Min glanced at several brothers with nearly fifty people to detour to Zhangjiazhuang, turned his head and noticed that the colleagues in front of Liu Zheng were either seriously injured or began to fight after Yan Zheng and the others fell, and even had a tendency to retreat and collapse, waving his hand to signal the colleagues around him to go in to support, but he also frowned and was nervous.
He couldn't figure out why Liu Zheng hadn't asked anyone to fight back so far, so that he could do something naturally, and he couldn't figure out why Liu Zheng could have such long-lasting endurance, and even dared to be stuck in the road alone.
Just so confident that you can destroy yourself these people?
At the thought of being underestimated by the other party, Huang Min scolded in his heart, thinking that the rain was too strong before, and he couldn't see clearly in many places, at this time, with a torch, as long as he was careful to pay attention to the traps, it would definitely not be difficult to take a detour to attack Zhangjiazhuang, and you Liu Zheng would definitely ......
After thinking about it, Gongsun Zhan may bring troops over at any time, and if he remembers correctly, the guest servants who have guarded Zhangjiazhuang in the past two days have less than a hundred people, and I am afraid that fifty people will not be able to please them, at this time, I heard the drums on the mountain road suddenly disappeared, but no one rushed down, and the quiet mountain farm seemed to be within reach, but it seemed to be full of danger, which also made Huang Min's heart more urgent and irritable.
In addition to complaining that the people who have not rebelled so far, Huang Min even felt that if Huang Shao was not stunned, but ordered someone to stop the person who was riding away in advance, that is, the other party had superb riding skills and excellent horses, as long as he stopped for a while, he was afraid that time would be able to win more.
At the same time, halfway through, Lu Zhi had already put down the drumsticks, his hands were slightly spasmodic and drooping due to excessive force, and his throat was also a little dry and hoarse.
Through the gaps in the trees in front of them, the scattered people in the distance under the light of the torches were divided into three groups, one went straight away, looking at the direction to prepare to go to the farm, and the other group turned along the edge of the mountain forest in other directions, obviously planning to detour to Zhangjiazhuang, and the last group was still fighting with Liu Zheng.
The old man glanced condescendingly, looking at Liu Zhengyi's husband, his eyes were appreciative, but his heartbeat suddenly accelerated.
The number of people is not right......
There are obviously only about 200 people in this group, so where are the remaining 800 people?
Suspicious tactics? Or is there really a fine work among the more than 1,000 people on his side? Or is it that another group of people is bluffing, saying that it is a thousand people, just to get the thousand people of Deran to move?
What about the purpose?
Divert the tiger from the mountain, capture the horse farm, the farm?
Still is...... Just a temptation from Bo Jue? Or Zhao Xin?
Lu Zhiquan understands all the tricks, but it is difficult for a clever woman to cook without rice, there is no scout reconnaissance at this time, and the person who sent the bamboo slips over there appeared extremely abruptly, which is related to the life of the family, and there is a group of old and weak women and children behind him, and he is also a little nervous about the number of people for a while.
After all, this time is different from the past, if the imperial army and the thieves are fighting, and the positions on both sides are clear, that is, some people are internal responses, and there are actually many henchmen around them, plus the troops are reorganized and scattered, some internal responses just want to fish in troubled waters, and there is no chance to make a move.
But at this time, the number of people is not right, whether the eight hundred people are on the enemy or friendly side does not know, and the location and purpose are also clueless, in this case, Lu Zhi's thoughts are flying, and he is naturally nervous, but in addition to being nervous, he also has more appreciation for the plan of Liu Zheng, Cai Yu, and Zhang Ke.
Lu Zhi is one of the few people who really knows Liu Zheng's intentions, in fact, in order to prevent a large number of people from affecting the situation, Liu Zheng can be described as a dangerous soldier this time, although according to the current situation, the danger should not be great, but a slight difference, including Liu Zhengnei, it is still possible to die in this incident, he has not raised objections before, and now looking at it, it can be regarded as a link and a link......
Well, the other party is a moth thief, born in a rabble, and it is difficult to succeed is also a reason.
Lu Zhi looked at the mountains and fields on his left and right, laughed, and then found that the two children were standing on either side, each holding one of his fingers hard, listening to the fight in the distance and breathing rapidly.
He squatted down and put his hand on the shoulders of the two children, "Xiao Lang, Deda, there are more than 50 people who have made a detour this time, guess how many people are in the mountains and forests around here?" ”
"Is there anyone in the woods?"
Xiao Sun Li's voice trembled, but he also suddenly realized, "I thought that the more than 100 guards had withdrawn, and they had all hid in the forest." So why not send someone to protect it at the farm? I just took a look, and the master and aunts were a little anxious. ”
Li Lang was still looking up at the end of the road, but he was short, and the bushes blocked his vision, so he couldn't see clearly for a while, but he also frowned and said, "There are more than a hundred people, right?" I overheard my father and mother talking, and I heard that there were more than 1,000 thieves...... It's the courage of the teachers, and we have to say the least there are hundreds of ......."
There was a sudden rustling sound in the nearby woods, and then a figure jumped out.
The man jumped to the side of the three of them, holding the spear in both hands and gasping for breath, Li Lang was startled, and only after seeing the figure clearly did he know that there was a false alarm, "Uncle Wen Chou? ”
Lu Zhi stood up, patted the shoulders of the two children, and said with a smile: "With your Uncle Wenchou, there are only three." ”
"What?!"
"Master?!"
The two children screamed.
Wen Chou was startled, patted the hats on the heads of the two children, and said breathlessly: "Scream, call a fart, your teacher has beaten 50,000 people, and you are still afraid of these 1,000 people...... Okay, okay, uncle, I was actually shocked when I heard it, you, you as his apprentice, can be like this, it can be regarded as a comfort to me. Ha, haha, not everyone is as abnormal as him......"
Lu Zhi made a silent gesture at Li Lang and Sun Li, and asked with a smile, "Ready to go back?" ”
"Right...... There are too many of them, and we can't fit them anymore. Brother Zhao Li went to see his wife. Brother Li Cheng was waiting over there to try if he could use rolling logs and traps to kill a few more. I'm just here to ask Zi Gangong what you mean, do you want to see what Liu Gongzi will do again, or go back, go back? ”
Wen Chou gasped, Lu Zhi thought about it, took the hands of the two children, nodded and said, "It's okay, I can settle people's hearts when I go back with the two children." The big drum is here, cheer or kill, whatever you want. ”
Wen Chou glanced at the trembling figure of Liu Zheng and the people in the distance, reached out and got into the robe, and lifted the clothes that were mixed with sweat and rain to stick to his body, "Ran to death...... I'll rest for a while and wait until I make plans...... Zi Gangong, I didn't see it clearly just now, did Brother Ziyuan run out? ”
"Ran out, Ziyuan's riding skills are really as extraordinary as he said."
"Horse breeding is naturally good. There are also few people, and they don't seem to have many horses. When I heard the sound of horses' hooves on their side, it really scared me to death. But Liu Gongzi is too, this is a bit redundant. Didn't Gongsun Fujun inform it early, early? ”
"If you show it to people, if you wait until you call someone, the thief will think that there is still a lot of time, but when you see us go to find Bo Jue, you will also feel that time is pressing. By the way, let's try to see if the thief is elite...... I think you'll be able to go down the mountain to pick you up soon. ”
Lu Zhi looked around, and there seemed to be a little more yellow halo under the dim firelight in the direction of the city wall in the distance, and then that little yellow halo began to thicken and spread.
"Bo Jue is here."
He smiled, listening to the sound of the fight at the end of the mountain road continuing, although he already knew that Liu Zheng was extraordinary, but thinking that Liu Zheng had been fighting for at least two moments, this endurance martial art still surprised him, and then pulled the two children and turned around and said, "Let's go home." ”
The two children followed step by step, and Sun Li realized that his father's task was so dangerous, "Master, if it is elite, if they still have bows and arrows, won't my father ...... Phew. ”
"Hehe, I can go back. First, the rain is heavy, the bowstring is easy to get damp, and the bow and arrow cannot shoot far and cannot be aimed accurately. Second, it is a sound shooter, and it also needs a quiet environment to be able to listen to the voice at night, which is still raised by the imperial court, if there is no talented person this time, it is absolutely impossible for someone to shoot your father. Your father also wore armor under his robe, which is related to wound treatment, and your uncle Zhongjing also left some medicine and experience before leaving, how can he worry about his life? ”
Lu Zhi explained as he walked: "Also, there are only seven or eight of their riders, and the horses are also very poor, so they can't catch up. With Deran watching, your father is not a mediocre hand, if he can't do anything, he will retreat. Now that I can see the situation clearly, I can't advance and retreat freely, so my father is injured, so I can only blame my bad luck. As for why you want to do this, it is very important to be virtual and real, that is, to attack the heart. At least in this battle, we didn't spend a single soldier, but most of the more than 100 people here were dead...... And those who quit can't please either. ”
"What about us? What about the fifty people who were blocked in the road and rushed up to kill them? ”
"Three holes of the cunning rabbit...... When we have a cave, they have to find it out, and they have to have time. ”
"Caves?"
"Hehe, the old man also knows ......"
"But what about our guards?"
"Guards......"
In a whisper, the three of them disappeared on the mountain road, and the fight between Liu Zheng and the thief in front of the road continued, but with the sharp decrease in the number of people, people's hearts still inevitably floated.
When someone reported that Huang Min was paying attention behind him, Huang Min turned his head and saw clearly that the firelight on the side of Zhuo County was dense, approaching like a firefly, and his face was suddenly like ashes, and he ran in the direction where Huang Shao was far away.
The crowd began to break up and flee.
……
Gongsun Zhan's movement when he left was not small, if the people in the city had a heart, they would naturally be able to know the situation, but from the houses near the city gate, those white horse Yi suddenly appeared from many streets and alleys, quickly and silently gathered out along the city gate, estimated that the number exceeded a hundred, Ma Tai was still a little surprised by the combat quality of this group of white horse volunteers.
He left someone to keep an eye on the situation in the yard, and turned back into the house.
There was a big man in the room eating the food calmly, holding a bowl in his left hand, holding a chopstick in his right hand with a burn scar and stuffing the vegetables into his mouth, chewing and slurring his words: "More than a hundred?" ”
"Qu Shuai heard it? This ability...... Ma admires! ”
Ma Tai gave a thumbs up and sighed, knelt to the side, and then touched the ring knife on his waist, and said expectantly: "That Gongsun Zhan has already produced half of the family soldiers, what is Qu Shuai going to do?" ”
The big man swallowed the food, threw a grain of corn that fell on the desk into his mouth, stretched his legs with both hands, and sat in a leisurely position: "I don't know." ”
Ma Tai was stunned for a moment, "Then why did I go to the county government to send bamboo slips before?" Didn't you want to lure out Gongsun Chan and take advantage of the situation to capture Zhuojun? ”
Seeing that Dahan shook his head, Ma Tai asked again: "Is that to make Huang Shao and Bu Ji cornered, and then use them for us?" Or ...... Kill Liu Zheng to avenge Wancheng? ”
The last question Ma Tai hesitated for a moment, and the big man shook his head one after another, looked at the scar on his right hand, and said with a smile: "Of course revenge must be avenged." But you don't know the situation in Wancheng in the past, and you don't know the relationship between me and my eldest brother, at this time...... It's better to keep your mouth shut. ”
Ma Tai's expression froze, and the big man picked up the rice bowl again, sandwiched a piece of bacon and ate it with relish, "The situation is changing rapidly, where is this scene can be seen clearly." Even if under the guidance of our others, Gongsun Chan sent troops, Huang Shao's side is destined to suffer, and whether Huang Shao will surrender or flee after that, is it expected? is not to say this, Zhao Xin, Qin Qiong, Eren, Liu Zheng, Bu Ji...... Even the people left here by my eldest brother, or some stragglers left here by the Montenegrin army......"
He shook his head, "Eight hundred people can make waves, but they can't make waves." Before the result is out, I should set up a game for Liu Zheng to make him nervous, and it doesn't hurt to be happy afterwards. ”
The big man said that he was open-minded, and Ma Tai was stunned, "Then I'll wait......"
"I said that I don't care about the gains and losses...... Oh, since Huang Shao's disguise has summoned all the brothers once, he still has to move. Yes, you should at least get in touch with Buji. ”
The big man took a spoon and drank a mouthful of vegetable soup, and Ma Tai nodded, "In the past, he commanded the soldiers of Yan and Qingzhou, and he still had prestige, so it is natural for Qu Shuai to take him back to Qingzhou to compete with your eldest brother." Just this thing...... You can do it alone, right? ”
Dahan thought it was delicious, so he simply picked up the soup bowl, and then looked up and said, "Then the Cai family brothers and sisters are very powerful, Liu Zheng has to be serious, you take the opportunity to find someone to arrest it." Remember, the third sister is not allowed to be touched, I am useful. As for the rest of the women...... Be kind to all of them. In recent months, being able to keep the farm in good order by one person must be extraordinary. If we want to be rich, we still have to rely on this kind of person who has a little ability to take care of it...... You can bring someone there. Remember, at most, let him suffer a little loss, don't kill him. ”
“…… Here. ”
Ma Tai still had doubts, but he also felt that he was too polite, so after thinking about it, he still hugged his fists and left.
The big man drank all the vegetable soup, mixed the remaining rice, vegetables and meat together, and after eating it cleanly, he burped, went out with a ring knife, and listened to everyone calling softly "Qu Shuai", so he also patted his stomach and asked with a smile: "See clearly Gongsun Chan is gone?" ”
Someone arched his hand and said, "I see it clearly." Leaving with him were also the county lieutenant Wang Men, the second brother Liu Weitai, and the henchmen Yan Gang and Wen Ze. ”
The big man's palm grazed down from the back of the ring knife, "Eat and drink, nothing." I don't think I'm happy that I've gathered all my brothers but don't do anything......"
Everyone denied it again and again, and Zhao Hong waved his hand and smiled: "It's okay." Actually, I'm not satisfied. Anyway, I don't have anything to do, so I'll find something to do. Zhao Yu, go and tell those Wuhuan people that the gang outside is hooking them up, and ask them if they want to cooperate with us to kidnap the son of our prince to Xianbei, so as to knock on the mountain and shake the tiger, and cut off our Han people's idea of forcing them to death. Oh, and you must tell them that Lao Tzu is still happy to live in peace with the barbarians, and even if they don't do it, they will make trouble. ”
The big man named Zhao Yu was stunned, "Light hijacking? ”
"What, is it possible to fall in love with Zhuo County? Lao Tzu has such a bad taste? There is not much rain in this place all year round, and it is better to have a few states in the south. Let's just have fun and grab it...... Not to mention the 4,000 people on the shore of Taoshui, when the Black Mountain Army comes back, I won't be bored waiting. ”
The ring head knife resisted on the shoulder, and the big man glanced left and right, "Let's go, call two hundred brothers, follow me to the county guard's mansion, and the rest of the people are at will, there are grievances to revenge, and there are revenges to revenge." Oh, don't touch Liu Zheng's industry, let's rob other people's, it's best to be those gentlemen and heroes who have been kind to Liu Zheng before and switched to other places...... Got it? ”
"Qu Shuai is wise!"
Soon after, everyone parted outside the gate, and the big man walked to the street near the city gate, and looked out of the city gate, where a group of yellow dots kept floating in the night, and he picked his teeth with his nails, "Tsk, it's miserable." ”
When the husband saw him and his companions beside him, he came over with a big shout, and the big man whispered something like "join in the fun", and fled away with a hippie smile.
