When camping in the evening, the poor mule turned into fragrant broth, and each soldier in the firearms battalion was given a large spoonful, of course, there was a delicious food that could not be enjoyed alone, Chen Shangwu ordered Si Yang to send a large piece of meat to Wang Kefan.

This is Chen Shangwu's superiority, he was born in a family of merchants, and he is the most mellow in the details of dealing with people, if he personally sends the meat over, he will definitely touch Wang Kefan's nose, but let a small soldier come forward, it is not good for Wang Junmen to drive him back.

Sure enough, Wang Kefan accepted the meat.

Dragon meat in the sky, donkey meat in the ground, mules are born from donkeys, have excellent genetics, and the cooked meat has a strong and mellow taste, which makes people appetite.

Snoring, Wang Kefan ate very fragrantly, and his mouth was full of oil.

sighed, Li Runniang also ate very fragrantly, and her mouth was full of oil.

Li Runniang had just rushed back from Jingzhou, and the two met for the first time after the Chinese New Year, but they sat speechless, concentrating on eating meat, until the bowl was clean and the last bite of broth was drunk...... It is said that it is a common thing, but in fact, it is better to understand the situation on the front line from another angle, Li Runniang stayed in Jingzhou for a month, and knew the details of the loyalty camp more clearly.

"Big brother (Li Guo), they don't have any words to praise Xianggong!" Li Runniang said happily: "The loyal battalion fought a battle and lost a battle a year ago, thanks to those ideas you came up with, it only won two battles after the year, and killed hundreds of Tartars, and the eldest brother was very happy, saying that they had finally found a way to deal with the clothed soldiers......"

The clothed soldiers, that is, the Wuzhen Chaoha soldiers of the Han Army Banner, their combat effectiveness is a cut worse than that of the Tianyou soldiers and Tianzhu soldiers, but in theory, they are also real Tartars, in the eyes of Du Yinxi and Li Guo and others, as long as they can exchange their lives with the real Tartars. Even if the battle is won.

Wang Kefan nodded and said with a smile: "The clothed soldiers are not difficult to deal with, the really powerful ones are the Tianyou soldiers, as well as the Bayala soldiers of Luckdehun, if the loyal battalion fights with them, I am afraid that they will not be able to beat." ”

Li Runniang glanced at him with a white eyeball: "Look at what you said, my eldest brother has been fighting for half his life, how can he do that kind of stupid thing of touching eggs on stones, he has long been arranging for everyone to withdraw from the Yangtze River, and Jingzhou Wharf is very busy every day!" The eldest brother also said. Let you be careful, if the third brother (Wang Sheng) really can't stand it, just withdraw from Yuezhou Mansion, the loyalty camp doesn't have to worry about you, and you will definitely be able to get out. ”

This is obviously just a kind word. I'm afraid that there is already a war on the Yuezhou Mansion, and Wang Kefan will send a fast horse to rush there now. It was too late to inform Wang Sheng to retreat. But in front of Li Runniang, he still expressed his gratitude to Li Guo, the eldest brother.

Li Guo knew that it was good to run, but what Wang Kefan was most worried about was that Li Guo was reluctant to give up the territory north of the Yangtze River, and stubbornly defended Jingzhou Mansion and Chengtian Mansion and fought hard with the Qing army, and was broken by Kong Youde. Survivors and landless, people and lands exist. Losing the land and losing the land is a valuable experience that has been exchanged for countless blood.

"Xianggong, why are you going back and forth in the Makufu Mountain and not killing it directly?" Li Runniang said: "I'm looking for you." I also drilled in the ravine for several days, and my 'little red' lost a full circle. ”

Xiaohong is Li Runniang's mount, once killed Bo Erhui, but she was unknown afterwards, she was a buried heroine of the Qing Dynasty, but she (it) herself had no complaints.

"Now is not the time. Let's go around, and I'll tell you a story. After the meal, the couple walked a hundred steps, and did not bring their own soldiers to escort them, walked through the bamboo forest, climbed the hillside, stood on a high place and overlooked the beautiful scenery around them, let the refreshing mountain breeze blow through the clothes, and their minds suddenly opened up.

Wang Kefan continued: "A long, long time ago, the tiger didn't know anything, so he had to learn from the cat, and after learning the three tricks of pounce, lifting, and cutting, it wanted to eat the cat, but he didn't expect the cat to secretly leave a hand, and ran to the tree with a swish, and the tiger couldn't go up the tree, so he had to look at it and stare at it......

Li Runniang clapped her hands and shouted: "This story is to coax children, I have heard it a long time ago!" ”

"It's not over yet, you definitely haven't heard the end later." Wang Kefan continued: "The cat hid in the tree and waited until the tiger was gone before coming down, but I didn't expect the tiger to hide next to it, and suddenly pounced on it and ate the cat." ”

Li Runniang was very smart, and immediately understood the meaning of this story, and said with a smile: "Xianggong compares himself to a cat, but compares a tartar to a tiger, which is too out of tune." Alright then, let's continue to hide in the ravine and wait until the tiger is gone. ”

"Don't worry, although the Tartar is a tiger, Xianggong is Wu Song, and sooner or later he will be killed!" Wang Kefan smiled, turned around and looked at the surrounding mountains, but his elbow suddenly felt soft, it turned out that Li Runniang took his arm and put his right hand on his face and rubbed it gently.

"Of course I'm relieved, Xianggong is a hero who stands up to the sky, and no one can compare!"

"You girl is so numb!" Wang Kefan said that his mouth was numb, but he didn't pull his right hand back, but gently slapped her buttocks with his left hand, but he didn't expect the tentacles to be elastic, and he couldn't help kneading them repeatedly, Li Runniang's cheeks were crimson, and he shook his arm violently and hid to the side.

"You, you don't have a positive shape in broad daylight, what should you do if others see it?"

"I'm wrong for that!" Wang Kefan said solemnly: "I touched my wife's fragrant buttocks just now, and suddenly I had a flash of inspiration, and I had a plan, so I kneaded it more than ...... Oops, I still haven't figured it out, hurry up and let me pinch two more! ”

Li Runniang was not fooled: "Don't talk nonsense, hurry up, what are your clever plans?" ”

Wang Kefan suppressed his disappointment and groaned: "The tiger is too big, I can't kill it now, but I can't hide in the ravine all the time, I'm going to go around behind the tiger and kick it in the ass......"

The Chu army hid in the Mufu Mountain, Geng Zhongming was not familiar with the terrain, and he did not dare to enter the mountain to chase after him, so he mobilized Tong Yanghe's Wuzhen Chaoha soldiers, and guarded the pass outside the mountain to prepare to attack the Chu army, but such a large Mufu Mountain, the Qing army of tens of thousands of people would definitely not be able to surround it, which gave the Chu army room to find fighters.

To endure some hardships and drill ravines in order to win victory in the future.

After the Chu army entered the Mufu Mountain, it was received by the volunteers of Ningzhou, and there was no problem with the supply of grain and grass for the time being, but the output in the ravine was limited, and the mountain people were too poor, and they would definitely not be able to raise these tens of thousands of troops for a long time......

The husband and wife talked while walking back, just out of the bamboo forest, they heard a noise next to the stream, looked up, there were nearly a thousand soldiers around, three layers inside and three layers outside, with the sound of the bowstring behind the crowd, the soldiers cheered from time to time, and then when a gong sounded, someone loudly reported the name of the shooter: "Zhang Yong of Ji'an camp, an arrow is white!" ”

With a bang, the onlookers cheered together, and the soldiers of the Ji'an battalion were especially excited.

"Let's go, look, they're shooting willows!" Wang Kefan took Li Runniang and walked over with great interest.

There are a few willow trees beside the stream, the tender green willow branches can reach the ground, there are soldiers cut off a few sections of willow, inserted in the ground as a target, each wicker is tied with a sweat towel, two rows of Chu soldiers stand thirty steps away, are testing bow and arrow archery.

The sweat towel was tied to the wicker and did not unfold, and the difficulty of shooting thirty steps away was not small, but the Zhang Yong just now was a step ahead, and did not shoot the sweat towel that was easy to hit, but shot the wicker at the bottom with an arrow, and it was a full house at that time.

"Good! Good! This brother is a good means, look at the reward! In front of the crowd, Xiong Lichun laughed.

The soldiers immediately stepped forward and raised the bamboo strips in their hands, and Huang Cancan's copper coins splashed at Zhang Yong like rain, but Zhang Yong jumped backwards and avoided the money rain, he suddenly stretched out his hand like electricity, copied a few copper coins from the money rain, and bowed to Xiong Lichun: "Thank you, Master Xie!" ”

Xiong Lichun's eyes narrowed slightly, and then there was another burst of laughter, even happier than just now, he turned around and waved his hand to Wang Dingyi, and made a gesture of please: "General Wang, the brother you brought is really good at archery, and the old bear also has itchy hands, let's play together!" ”

In the bow and arrow competition just now, the Ningzhou volunteers lost to the Ji'an battalion, Xiong Lichun was ready to go down in person, bullying Wang Ding to get back face, Wang Ding was originally a scholar, not good at archery, seeing that he directly invited the battle and it was not easy to retreat, it was a little embarrassing at that time.

"I'm compared to you!" Gu Zongfu jumped out and blocked Wang Ding.

He is a veteran of the border army of the Chongzhen Dynasty, and he has an extraordinary bearing when he goes to that station, holding a hard bow with a stone in his hand, according to common sense, he can't use a stone bow to shoot a target thirty steps away, but Gu Zongfu just uses this bow, which shows that the bows he usually uses are stronger.

(One stone bow is very good, those who can use it freely are all strong archers in the army, those who can use two stone bows are better martial arts generals, and those who can open three stone bows are very, very great fierce generals.) In ancient times, one stone was equal to about 100 kilograms, while the bow power of modern archery competitions is about 20 kilograms, and it is a toy in front of a stone bow. ）

This is a master! Of course, Xiong Lichun refused to compare with him: "Hehe, General Gu's interest is so good, wait a minute, let my second brother compare with you, and I will still play with General Wang." ”

After he finished speaking, he ignored Gu Zongfu, stepped forward and picked up five copper coins, tied them to the top of the wicker, and then stood thirty steps away, stretched out his hand and twisted out five feather arrows from the quiver, and swished out of the beads, only to hear the clanging sound, and the five copper coins were all shot away by him.

"Good!"

"General Xiong is mighty!"

This hand is much more clever than the Zhang Yong just now, not only the volunteers in Ningzhou applauded, but the soldiers of the other battalions also applauded loudly, only the Ji'an battalion, which was dismissed from face, did not make a sound.

"I didn't expect Xiong Lichun to be quite powerful, Wang Ding will definitely admit defeat." Wang Kefan also nodded, with the continuous arrows he revealed, there are few people in the Chu army who can compare, of course Wang Ding can't compare to him, and he can save some face by admitting defeat directly.

Unexpectedly, Wang Ding insisted on finishing the competition. (To be continued......)
