Light cavalry come and go like the wind, and once you show a flaw, they will pounce and bite like a hungry wolf. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

Liu Guang hated the Liangshan cavalry cruising around him, but he was unable to drive them away, so he could only let them go.

It is not good to go out of the division, should you withdraw the troops and go back?

As soon as this thought was born, Liu Guang himself was extinguished.

The army moved the people, and the scenery was only one day away, and they withdrew to the city in embarrassment, how do the soldiers in the army think of themselves? What do the people of the city think of themselves? What does the prefect Jiang think of himself? What do children think of themselves?

Can't afford to lose this man!

Even if this trip is difficult, you can rely on the large number of people under you, even if you don't win, you can ensure that you are undefeated. If you can't break through the main village of Liangshan, take a rural Zhujiazhuang, and it's enough to go back to your life.

After making up his mind, Liu Guang continued to urge the soldiers to advance.

Under the harassment of Lin Chong and Yang Zhi's cavalry, Liu Guang led the officers and soldiers to walk slowly, and only walked twenty miles in a day. This time, Liu Guang learned the lesson of last night, and after arriving at a village, he immediately asked soldiers to cut down trees to make a fence and surround the village, which ensured that the night was uneventful.

On the third day after leaving the city, Lin Chong and Yang Zhi's cavalry harassed them for half a day before leaving early.

In the afternoon, Liu Guang led the officers and soldiers to stumble to the foot of Dulonggang, just to see the camp built by the Liangshan people in the past, boxy, wooden villages, moats, arrow towers are all available, Liu Guang was secretly frightened, just from the camp built by the people and horses of Liangshan, you can see that the other party is well-trained.

He led the officers and soldiers to walk for three days, but he never built such a camp, but only requisitioned the village houses of the common people by tricks.

In the face of such a camp, if you want to break through, I am afraid that you will need to waste a lot of strength. If you don't break it, when you attack the mountain yourself, you will have to worry about the future!

When Liu Guang was weighing whether he should find a place to camp first, or immediately attack the opponent's camp, the military gate of the camp opened, and two cavalry troops rushed out from inside, which were the leopard Tao cavalry and the dragon cavalry led by Lin Chong and Yang Zhi.

Liu Guang hurriedly put people on guard.

However, these cavalry did not come forward to fight, but quickly withdrew, burrowed into the dense forest mountain road, and headed for the top of Dulonggang Mountain.

The officers and soldiers made a false alarm, but they did not dare to pursue. Look at the camp again, it has become an empty village.

Liu Qi was overjoyed and said: "Father, there are few cavalry on the other side, and he must be afraid of being besieged by our army, so he abandoned the camp and fled to the mountains." ”

Liu Lin also said; "I'm worried that I don't have a place to live at night, isn't this a ready-made camp?"

Liu Huiniang was suspicious and said: "Daddy, I'm afraid there is something strange in this. This village is located just at the intersection of the mountain, and the location is important. Why did the other party give up? Even if you want to throw it away, why not tear it down. Isn't it an enemy to leave us so easily? I'm afraid it's an empty city plan, and there are ambushes hidden in it! ”

Liu Guang pondered for a moment, turned his head and asked He Tao, "Brother He, what do you think?" ”

He Tao scolded in his heart and asked me if it was okay!

But he pretended to be respectful and said: "There are many people on our side, are you afraid that he won't succeed?" Whether it is an empty city plan, send a few people who dare to die, and go in to find out! ”

Liu Guang nodded and said, "If you have insight, then bother Brother He to send a few people in to investigate!" ”

Sure enough, I guessed it again! People complain, I have to be responsible for the black pot!

He Tao couldn't, so he could only point back and say, "You, you, and you, take a few people in and have a look!" ”

The named officers and soldiers were also apprehensive in their hearts, but they had to bow their heads and obey the orders by the officials so loudly, several people cowered and approached the gate of the village, turning their heads forward step by step, and seeing the wide open camp gate, it was like an open tiger's mouth, waiting for them to take the initiative to come forward and die.

He Tao scolded in the back: "Serving the country, supreme glory, afraid of a ball?" If there is an accident, I will raise your wife and children! ”

When he said this, the officers and soldiers were even more afraid.

He Tao gestured to a few crossbowmen beside him, and those crossbowmen leveled the crossbow body in their hands.

After a while, several people ran out excitedly and reported: "My lord, it's empty, and there is no one inside!" ”

"That's true!"

"The villain dares to vouch for his life!"

It was getting late, and the officers and soldiers who had been marching for a day were also very tired, and when they heard that this was an empty camp, they were very happy, and they had a good place to stay at night.

Liu Guang was surprised in his heart, there was no trap? So he said to He Tao: "Brother He, do you think we should move in?" ”

He Tao said with a bitter face: "General, it's not hypocrisy, but these soldiers under our command have no ability to build another camp, and the axes for building wooden fences last night were all taken from the people's homes, how do you let everyone cut down trees and dig ditches?" ”

Liu Guang looked back at these lazy officers and soldiers, shook his head, and ordered: "Enter the village!" ”

After the army entered the village, they searched and found that there were no traps or the like, but there were a lot of grains, sorghum, and sesame straw piled up on the training ground, which made it convenient for the officers and soldiers to make fires and cook.

There were only a dozen tents in the camp, and I thought it was the place where the cavalry lived, but they didn't have time to collect it because they were in a hurry to escape. There were still some leftovers in the tent.

Liu Guang inspected for a week and found no abnormalities, so he ordered the soldiers to set up camp, set up tents, and prepare to make dinner.

Officers and soldiers from the training ground to the nearest straw, fire cooking, or light a bonfire around to keep warm, talking about the two days of suffering, these soldiers still have lingering palpitations, Wang Lao Wu is a junior head of the regimental training camp, surrounded by several of his brothers, while roasting the fire, while chatting, someone asked: "Fifth brother, what do you say we are doing out of the city this time?" ”

Wang Lao Wu glanced at him and said, "What else can you do, go out of the city to suppress bandits!" ”

The man glanced at his mouth and said, "This bandit has been following us for two days, and he has killed more than 200 brothers, but I haven't seen the general move!" ”

Wang Lao Wu sneered: "How can Liangshan be so easy to suppress, do you know who those cavalry leaders are?" ”

Everyone came over and hurriedly asked, "Which one is it?" ”

Wang Lao Wu lowered his voice and said, "It's the leopard head Lin Chong and the blue-faced beast Yang Zhi!" ”

"I know, I know, Lin Chong, the head of the 800,000 forbidden army! A lot of people know about him."

"And that blue-faced beast Yang Zhi, I heard that he is still the descendant of the Yang family general, and his martial arts are outstanding!"

"My mother, against such two people, no wonder the little general led so many people up and was defeated!"

Wang Lao Wu lowered his voice and said mysteriously: "I have a brother who worships the little general in the cavalry team, and he later told me that the little general fought with Lin Jiaotou, and he was defeated without even passing a round. ”

"Wow, it can't be that powerful, right?"

"They're so good, so how can we win?"

"Win?" Wang Lao Wu said disdainfully: "It's good to be able to save your life!" Those who are officials have horses, and they are one step faster than us when they flee for their lives, and our brothers' two legs can't outrun their four legs! ”

"What then? Brother Wang, you have to teach us, my mother is still waiting for me to go back? ”

Wang Lao Wu snorted coldly: "Who has no one waiting to go back?" But this official has to work hard for us to get promoted and make a fortune, so how can Liangshan be easy to deal with? Last time, Huang Tuanlian took more than 1,000 brothers, and all of them died in the water. So, I'll remind my brothers, keep your eyes sharp when you fight, don't work too hard, don't stay too behind, hide when you have the opportunity, and keep your life! ”

"Brother Wang is right!"

"It's still Brother Wang who takes care of the brothers......"

Wang Lao Wu heard everyone's compliments, and was proud in his heart, and suddenly a whip hit him on the head, and the hot pain made Wang Lao Wu furious, "Who the fuck beat Lao Tzu!" Huo Ran stood up and was about to have a seizure. But when he got up and looked at it, he was stunned, bowed his head and didn't dare to speak.

"Bastard!" Liu Guangyi was beaten by a general's armor with a horse whip and another whip, leaving a blood mark on Wang Laowu's face, and said angrily: "I don't dare to serve the country with my body, and I even dare to spread cowardly remarks, Deputy General He, you tell him what a sin it is to talk nonsense in the army and disturb the hearts of our army!" ”

Night patrol, He Tao also can't live in peace, he hasn't gone far with Liu Guang, he encountered this incident, he can't say a reason in his mouth, he used to be just a arrester, and he was not a regular soldier who was in charge of the government to catch thieves, and he naturally couldn't memorize the seventeen precepts and fifty-four beheadings.

Liu Huiniang, who was dressed as a small soldier beside Liu Guang, said: "Article 8 of the Seventeen Precepts, good tongue and sharp teeth, acting in vain, transferring sergeants to make them discordant, this is called slandering the army, and the offender will be beheaded." ”

Liu Guang snorted: "In this case, step forward left and right, behead it to show the public, to set an example!" ”

Wang Lao Wu was so frightened that he fell to his knees, pouting with a handful of snot and tears: "The general spares his life, the little one is just a momentary gaffe......"

The soldiers under Wang Lao Wu were also frightened, but because of the majesty of the general, they didn't say anything to plead.

Liu Huiniang was also taken aback. She went out with her father for the first time, and she was full of curiosity about various affairs in the military camp, Liu Qi and Liu Lin were depressed because of the cavalry battle and were beaten by Lin Chong, and after dinner, they went to bed early. Liu Huiniang was in high spirits, and she had to pester her father to go out to patrol the night, so she encountered the scene in front of her.

She casually said the content of the seventeen precepts and fifty-four beheadings, just because she had a good memory, and when she heard her father ask, she said it casually, but she didn't really want to kill the person in front of her, not to mention that she was killed because of her own words, Liu Huiniang was even more uneasy. Hurriedly persuaded his father: "Daddy, slow down." This person just complained a few words and did not cause any consequences, so why not give him a chance to mend his ways? ”

He Tao saw that Liu Guang's face softened a little, and hurriedly persuaded: "General, now that the big war is imminent, I will cut off my soldiers first, I am afraid that it will be unfavorable to the morale of the army!" ”

Wang Lao Wu originally thought that he would die, but when he saw the two of them interceding for him, he also burst out with a desire to live, and he kept begging Liu Guang for mercy.

Liu Guang thought for a while and said: "Okay, but the death penalty can be avoided, and the living crime cannot be escaped, first beat thirty military sticks and tie them to the pillar in the center of the school field to set an example!" ”

Wang Lao Wu kowtowed like pounding garlic, and hurriedly thanked the general for not killing, and then was pulled away by the soldiers, beaten by Ping Pong, wailing constantly, and finally pulled to the pillar in the center of the school field and tied up.

The other soldiers all looked sideways, and asked why Wang Lao Wu was beaten, and the soldiers whispered and told what had happened, and soon the military camp knew about it, and at the same time, they were secretly vigilant in their hearts, and they also called Wang Lao Wu wronged, thinking that he was just telling the truth!

Liu Guang saw that those soldiers were really shocked, and they didn't dare to complain anymore, so he took Liu Huiniang and He Tao to continue to inspect with satisfaction.

After a round of inspection, He Tao took the opportunity to leave.

Back in his camp, Liu Guang saw that his daughter had been frowning, and said with a smile: "Ah Xiu, if you have such a sad face, it will not be a water hibiscus, but a xiaolongbao!" ”

Liu Huiniang smiled and said: "I used to just learn the art of war with my master, but I always had the feeling of talking about soldiers on paper. ”

"Oh, how did you feel about this night patrol there?"

Liu Huiniang shook her head and said confusedly: "I always feel that something is wrong, but I can't say why." ”

Liu Guang laughed and said: "Don't think so much, rest early, tomorrow morning, I will send troops to attack the mountain, and the villages and towns in that district will not be able to stop my government army!" ”

Liu Huiniang sighed helplessly: "Okay, I'll go to rest first, and Daddy shouldn't work too hard!" ”

Liu Guanghaha smiled and sent his daughter to the camp tent next door, and then returned to his handsome tent and sat down, a smiling face slowly changed, wrinkled into a ball, the discipline of the soldiers was sloppy, there was no fighting spirit, even if there were many people, it was difficult to succeed. What's more, Liangshan's generals were so strong in martial arts, Qi'er and Lin'er were defeated in an instant!

Liu Guang already had a premonition that this battle would not be easy, as long as he fought two battles and made a little meritorious service, he planned to withdraw to the city immediately.

The darkness before dawn often needs dawn to break it, but tonight, it's firelight.

Dawn is also the most difficult time for people, but it happened at this time.

At the edge of the camp school field, a hole was cracked in the ground, and more than a dozen people crawled out of the hole, they looked around, and found that there was no movement, they immediately divided into two roads, all the way to the place where the officers and soldiers stored their horses, and all the way to the firewood pile in the school field.

Wang Lao Wu, who was tied to the central pillar of the school field, was in pain all over his body, and he did not fall asleep in a daze until before dawn, but a sound woke him up, and he saw a magical scene in front of him. He held his breath, did not dare to make a sound, and continued to observe the movements of these people.

Soon the firewood in the school yard was lit by these people, and the smoke billowed and the fire ignited. The fence where the horses were stored was also destroyed and ignited, and the horses inside were disturbed and fled in all directions.

The firelight illuminated the school yard and also illuminated those who set the fire, and Wang Lao Wu saw that they were each dressed in tight black clothes, masked, with daggers stuck in their waists, and they moved neatly. Only by the light of the fire did these people realize that there was a person tied to the pillar in the center of the school field.

A man in black rushed over, pulled out the dagger on his waist and was about to stab it, Wang Lao Wu hurriedly lowered his voice and hurriedly said: "Be a good man and slow!" I, Wang Lao Wu, am also a tough guy, because I said a few good words for the heroes of Liangshan, but I was beaten by those dog officials, and I was tied here to show the public, I hate them so much, please save my life, I am willing to go to Liangshan to make cattle and horses for heroes! ”

The man in black hesitated, and another person rushed over when he saw this, and said, "We have to leave quickly!" ”

The man from before nodded, cut Wang Lao Wu's rope with a dagger, and carried him away.

At this time, the officers and soldiers in the camp were also awakened, and they panicked to call for water to put out the fire, intercept the war horses running around, and became a mess.

The dozen or so figures, with a Wang Lao Wu, took the opportunity to escape to the entrance of the cave and dived again.

In the darkness of the night, on the edge of the river, Chao Chong rode on his horse and looked at the burning camp.

Li Kui, Bao Xu, and Zhou Tong also rode horses and followed behind Chao Chong.

Yu Baosi, who was one zhang tall, did not ride a horse, carried a three-zhang Canglong flag, and stood tall behind Chao Chong.

They had already led the Liangshan men and horses to wait here for a long time, and when they saw a fire in the camp, they ordered the horn of attack to be sounded.

After the horn made of ox horns "buzzed", the four sides of the camp sounded one after another, which was the order to attack together.

The first capital thundered from the east side, the second capital Wu Song from the south side, the third capital Luda from the west side, the fourth capital Liu Tang came down from the north side of the mountain, and the fifth capital Huang Xin led the soldiers to carry a large amount of fire oil.

Chao Sheng's archers followed the Thunder from the east.

Leopards and dragons roam around, capturing escaped enemies at any time.

The decisive battle came suddenly.

When each soldier attacked, he carried a load of firewood and grass on his shoulder, and took advantage of the chaos in the camp to get close to the wall, and threw firewood into the trench outside the camp, and the trench was quickly filled.

Then a lot of fire oil was smashed on the wooden wall, a torch was dropped, the firewood and grass in the trench were ignited, the wooden village was ignited, and the entire camp was surrounded by fire.

There are mountain-like piles of firewood and grass burning brightly, and war horses are scurrying around; Outside, fires were burning in all directions, and the camp was lit by the light of the fire as if it were day, and the 2,800 officers and soldiers inside were panicked and scurrying in all directions, but there was no way out.

He Tao was awakened, saw the furnace-like camp in front of him, and remembered that he was defeated by the Ruan brothers in Shijie Village four months ago, and said in horror: "Zhongliang Mountain is also treacherous!" ”

Liu Guang also rushed out of the camp tent, first went to protect his daughter Liu Huiniang, saw the scene in front of him, was anxious, and scolded the soldiers who were running around: "Fight the fire, go and put out the fire!" ”

The camp is only 100 steps away from the river, so there is no well in the camp, but in this case, how did you get out of the walled gate? How do you fight a fire without water?

Chao Sheng's archery team approached the east wall, and as the order to "release arrows" sounded, rockets were fired into the camp, and a large number of official and military tents were set on fire, and the situation in the village was even more like fire.

The soldiers and horses around them shouted loudly according to the prior arrangement, like thousands of troops and horses, and the momentum was amazing.

This embattled situation created an illusion for the officers and troops in the camp that they were surrounded by nearly 10,000 enemies.

Chaos and panic spread, and reason and wisdom were forgotten. The officers and soldiers scrambled to escape, but the gate of the village was opened, but they were faced with the strict battle of the Liangshan army.

The outside world is as hot as an oven, but Liu Guang's heart is as cold as winter, and it's completely over! From the very beginning, he fell into the calculations of the Liangshan thieves!

According to reliable information, there are no more than 1,000 thieves in Liangshan, and there are only 400 in Zhujiazhuang. With an army of three thousand, he should not lose no matter what! Look at the current posture and listen to the shouts outside!

The panicked people have already thought that there are enemies everywhere outside, where is there still a fighting spirit? And trapped here, there is only the fate of being burned to death by the fire, and it seems that there is only a breakthrough!

Liu Guang found two sons and asked them to collect as many cavalry as possible, and finally found more than thirty. Liu Guang put on heavy iron armor for his daughter Liu Huiniang, held her daughter on his horse, protected her behind, and led his son and more than 30 cavalry to break out.

Liu Guang straddled the horse and carried a gun, in order to better break through, he ordered Liu Qi to erect his own banner, righteously summoned the soldiers, and shouted: "Ben will be here!" Don't panic, lean on me! ”

People in a panic are like people who have fallen into the water, even if it is a straw, they will grab it, and when they see someone erecting a big flag, they will gather one after another.

Liu Guangdao: "Internal worries and external urgency, all the soldiers will break out with me and kill them!" "Ichima is now rushing towards the east gate.

Seeing that the general was so brave, all the officers and soldiers who gathered over also shouted and followed, fantasizing about killing this furnace-like camp.

As soon as Liu Guang rushed out of the east gate of the camp, he flicked the horses and flashed sideways to the side, Liu Qi and Liu Lin also flashed to the side when they saw this, and the running infantry behind them were pushed across the drawbridge by the people behind them, and killed the first capital spearmen phalanx, Thunder snorted coldly, stood at the front of the queue, and shouted: "Raise your gun!" Hold! ”

"Hold on!"

"Hold on!"

The phalanx of spears blocked the exit, and there were fires on both sides, and the chaotic officers and soldiers were like rushing waves, touching the shore of the rocks, and then being pushed back.

The waves were raging, and I stood still.

Chao Sheng's archery team saw that the officers and soldiers broke through, and also came to help in the battle, and fired from the back of the spearmen phalanx, and the casualties of the officers and soldiers who were in chaos were even heavier, but they could not break through the phalanx line by half a step.

Liu Guang hid behind and watched secretly anxiously, if he continued like this, he couldn't escape!

But there is no endless road, after all, the firewood and grass in the trench are only grain, sorghum, sesame straw, although the fire looks vigorous, but it is not resistant to burning, originally relied on the Liangshan soldiers to keep filling firewood into it to maintain the fire, because the battle started, no one filled the firewood, the fire was naturally a little smaller, Liu Guang saw this and didn't care too much, a pat the war horse, while the fire was small, the prancing horse rushed over.

Liu Qi and Liu Lin led dozens of cavalry to follow.

When Thunder found out that it was not good, it was too late to block it, and the war horse grazed the edge of their phalanx and roared away.

Chao Sheng hurriedly ordered the archers to shoot, but only seven or eight cavalrymen were shot down, and more than twenty people fled.

When the officers and soldiers saw this, they shouted: "The general has fled!" ”

"The general has fled!"

The fighting spirit was lost all of a sudden, and he was blocked by a counterattack by Thunder and returned to the camp.

Chao Chong's fire attack was actually just a trick to attack the heart and cause panic to the officers and soldiers in the camp, and the actual number of people who could be burned to death was limited.

But Liu Guang's absconding left the officers and soldiers in the camp leaderless, and completely turned into a plate of scattered sand.

The burning of grain, sorghum, and sesame straw did not last long, and when the fire weakened, Chao Chong ordered the soldiers to attack from all sides, enter the camp, and capture the enemy as much as possible.

The red light of the fire slowly receded, revealing the white of the fish's belly in the east, and the sky became brighter and brighter.

By the time the first light of dawn in the east shone through, the battle was over completely.

In this battle, more than 200 enemies were killed and more than 2,300 people were captured.

Soon, Lin Chong and Yang Zhi, who were in charge of the perimeter blockade, also came to give orders, and they all more or less caught some fish that slipped through the net.

Shi Qian, who was dressed in black, with more than a dozen people in black, also handed over orders to Chao Chong: "Lord, the task is completed, no one will be damaged!" ”

Chao Chong laughed, patted the dirt on his shoulder, and said, "It's really hard to let you lurk in the tunnel!" ”

Shi Qian was happy in his heart, and recovered his jumping personality, and said: "It's not hard, it's just suffocating, it's dark and I can't see anything, and there are people farting, so far I don't know who it is!" ”

Chao Chong laughed.

At this moment, Wang Laowu, who had been rescued by Shi Qian, saw the officers and soldiers intercepted by Lin Chong, one of them was in his forties, with long beard and messy hair, black charcoal on his face, his head bowed, and his hands tied behind his back.

Wang Lao Wu went up and grabbed him, and said, "Liu Guang, old thief, you also have today!" He asked Chao Chong for credit: "King, king, this is Liu Guang, the leading general of the official army!" I know him too! ”

Lin Chong jumped off the horse, looked closer, and said to Chao Chong: "General, sure enough, it is Liu Guang, the first offender, the sky is dark, and he is dressed up as a small soldier again, and he actually deceived my eyes, what a mistake!" ”

Chao Chong was overjoyed, rewarded Wang Lao Wu with a few pieces of money, walked up to Liu Guang and said, "General Liu, Chao Chong in Xialiang Mountain." I'm so happy to have captured you the first time we met! ”
