Chapter 18 - The Scout War

Shizhou Wei military and civilian command envoy Yamen, under Zhang Yun did not send people to support Yang Shiqing. A group of officers who had narrowly escaped death under the full pursuit of the bandits sat here, speechless.

Of course, there is at least one of them, who is definitely painful on the surface and happy on the inside. This is Xu Hongwei, the commander of Chenzhou Wei.

But in this atmosphere, Xu Hongwei still had to show sadness on his face. Although many people here will definitely lose blood luck after a while, at least they haven't lost ground yet!

So in order to keep the sadness on his face, Xu Hongwei, who was actually extremely happy in his heart, sat very uncomfortable here. In this way, after a long time, it is inevitable that some flaws will be revealed. This makes everyone here even more dissatisfied!

"Why don't you run when everyone runs? If you don't run, it's okay! You've also made meritorious contributions......"

In fact, everyone's thoughts are the same, including Xu Yanping, the commander of Huguang who escaped by luck.

"Lord Xu seems to have a lot of insights into our current situation, otherwise it wouldn't be the attitude we have now. So be it! Then could you please come out and tell me how we should deal with the imperial court? No matter how dissatisfied others are with Xu Hongwei, they can't touch him, but Xu Yanping is different. immediately opened his mouth and forced him to Liangshan.

"Ahh Lord Xu, Xia Guan has no opinions at all. If there must be any opinion, it is that we might as well send a letter back to our respective guards, and let them continue to recruit troops and horses, with 50,000 soldiers and horses in hand, can the little bandits continue to run rampant? Xu Hongwei, who was forced to go to Liangshan, was very surprised, but he couldn't help but express his position. So he held back an argument to ask for reinforcements.

It's just that this argument of his, everyone here is dismissive!

The fighting families have been brought out. Even if everyone left at least half of their men unhanded, even if they reorganized all the men they left behind, it would only be 8,000 troops. What's the use of that?

As for the requisition of ordinary military households who are as thin as slaves, it is even more nonsense......

In this regard, Xu Yanping naturally knows the details of this. Therefore, it is very unkind to look at Xu Hongwei again. It's just that it's not good to have a seizure, so I have to beat it slightly.

"Some people, don't think you've done something. Just cocked his tail to the sky, you must know that the report to the court has to be written by the official. Hum! Let's go back, everybody. Think about how we're going to write this book next! ”

Hearing this, everyone else scattered in a hurry. But Xu Hongwei sat stiffly on the chair. I can't move for half a day!

"Still too young! I didn't expect that I had reached the age of knowing the destiny of heaven, and I still suffered such a loss! When everyone was gone, Xu Hongwei patted his face and couldn't help but smile bitterly.

Now I have two choices, one is to directly take the credit, but it is obvious that my own network is not as good as Xu Yanping, who has been the commander of Huguang for more than ten years, and he will definitely suffer a loss after reporting it. It is even more necessary to completely offend it to death!

The second thing is to cooperate with him, and it's a big deal to share the credit with him. As for the others, how far and how far to roll them ......

The thought turned to the empty lobby. and the people of Xu Fu, who probed their brains in the front yard. Xu Hongwei really wanted to cry without tears. Looking at this posture, Xu Yanping is not afraid that he will not comply at all!

……

"Bang Bang ......"

The bandits in charge of the execution were obviously quite sophisticated. Which loud whip flower was waved, so that Zhang Yun, who was watching the execution next to him, nodded secretly!

This was naturally accompanied by Yang Shiqing's screams, which made Zhang Yun even more satisfied.

In fact, Zhang Yun didn't know that there were many doorways in this industry. The two bandits who were executed. I'm afraid he is a master in this way. Therefore, they may not dare to really beat Yang Shiqing ruthlessly. It's just a good show to deceive yourself......

But Zhang Yun didn't care, this saw that the wind and rain were coming. At this time, he lost one of his generals. It doesn't seem like a good choice either!

What's more, now watching Yang Shiqing being beaten to the point of flesh and blood, even if it is the mercy of the executioners. There were no internal injuries left, and this external injury alone was enough for him to drink a pot and remember it for a long time. And Zhang Yun's purpose is this.

"Childe, my subordinates don't dare anymore!" A hundred lashes were quickly beaten. Yang Shiqing had a face that was about to be squeezed out of shape. Reluctantly came to Zhang Yun's side to beg for mercy.

But Zhang Yun saw that he had been whipped a hundred times, and he was still able to pronounce clearly. I was speechless for a while. This kid is really a secret. The last one is not a good performance!

It's just that he came to such a play, but it made Zhang Yun a little embarrassed. There are so many discerning people on the side. What do you want to say yourself?

"Humph! I hope you will do it yourself, and next time you will not violate the military order. Otherwise, this son will never be spared. After holding it for a long time, Zhang Yun said these words, and after thinking about it, he felt that he couldn't be so cheap, so he leaned closer to his ear and said.

"That's the end of this time, and after I go down, hurry up to reconnoiter the movements of the officers and soldiers of this son, and strive to atone for the crime. Otherwise, wait until this matter is completely settled. Think about it for yourself, what will this son do to you......"

After putting down these words, Zhang Yun immediately turned around and left. Don't care about how Yang Shiqing is grateful to Dade behind him. Because Zhang Yun felt that he was releasing water in front of so many people. After all, it's a bit unruly......

The next step was to test each other's attacks, and the officers and soldiers were waiting for the order of the imperial court. Zhang Yun also needed time to lick his wounds.

At the same time, it is also necessary to take into account the movements of the officers and the military. Adjust your strategy accordingly. In fact, Zhang Yun also thought about whether to give up this place. But after this war, Wu Liangpeng, a small local hundred, seems to have something to gain in this war in which many officers were killed? This made Zhang Yun unable to make up his mind to leave.

……

On the hillside a few miles away from the Ming army camp, there are more than a dozen men in black, monitoring day and night.

On this day, the sun had just risen, and there was movement in the Ming army camp!

"See? The 180 people who walked out of the official army camp were definitely spies of the official army. Luo Jiabao, Zheng Yongquan. You two hurry back and report. The others come with me. ”

The bandits who came to monitor were all scouts carefully trained by Zhang Yun. However, they are too blatant surveillance. Finally, it still alarmed people who shouldn't have been alarmed.

Unexpectedly, as soon as I left the barracks, a group of rats followed behind me. It seems that what Liu Bao said yesterday was right. Recently, those thieves should not be able to launch a major attack! ”

"Actually, it's good for them to delay time like this, waiting for the imperial army to arrive. Hey hey ......"

A group of Ming soldiers walked on the official road without any scruples, as if they didn't know that there were watchers behind them. I didn't even do the cover action of drilling the mountain and walking the path.

There was nothing wrong with that, but alas, this time their opponents. But it is not the people of this era.

Therefore, it didn't take long to keep up, and the more Luo Zhongbiao thought about it, the more wrong it became. Until another three-way intersection. But the Ming army in front of them did not accept it at night, but still chose to take the big road. Luo Zhongbiao suddenly realized. It turns out that he has already been exposed......

At this moment, it is less than an hour before dawn. It is the time when man is most troubled. The Ming army did not collect at night and was submerged outside the tent area on the flat land of the mountain stream, but suddenly touched a group of uninvited guests.

Black clothes with dark night are simply a perfect match, although the Ming army does not collect at night, it can be called an elite soldier. However, there are more strong players in the strong. has been touched by the black-clothed bandits within ten feet. The night watchman finally sounded the alarm.

The moment the piercing gong sounded, all the black-clothed bandits who touched it jumped up. Fighting each other for the people of this era. It's also a very tall gesture exchanging things with each other's sights!

"Woo Woo ......"

"Bang Bang ......"

It's just that Shizhang is not far away, and the Ming army is also very elite. Almost everyone is a string controll. Therefore, the black-clad bandits did not wait for the tent area to rush in. One hundred and eighty arrows struck through the air. In this regard, a group of black-clothed bandits did not hesitate. Immediately with a musket and with a color. In an instant, the fire flew everywhere and the gunshots shook the sky!

"Brothers, stop loading, it's most important to hurry up and rush over, don't let the bows and arrows in the hands of these dogs work." I don't know who yelled in the dark.

All the bandits woke up from a dream and quickly gave up continuing to charge. Hurry up after throwing a wave of homemade grenades. Immediately rushed forward with a bayonet.

With the flash of light from the explosion of gunpowder, the two sides who were close immediately began a bloody hand-to-hand fight......
