Chapter 239: Parties (4)
After leaving the Tokyo Detention Division, she thought about the place where she lived, how to survive, and give her brothers a way out. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Fortunately, Li Tianwang took everyone in, and he already had a bite to eat.
Li Cheng is a good man, and the robes of our cavalry army are also good men, and everyone has gotten along well in the past two years. Apart from...... In addition to the endless fighting of this battle, it is simply headless.
Could it be that my Chen Lanruo's life is to keep killing people on the battlefield, and then one day I can't kill and be slashed under the horse, is this kind of life really what I want?
Thinking of this, Chen Lanruo raised her hand in front of her and looked through the light of the bonfire and the lightning outside. But I saw that my arms were full and strong, and the strong, slender and graceful muscles were looming. And the palms have been sharpened with thick calluses because of the long-term lifting of the gun and the knife.
"Am I still a woman......"
The long war had almost worn away her feminine features, and she could no longer remember the gentle, virtuous appearance of her youth.
Only, only a year ago in Huaixi. The man with thick eyebrows, bright eyes, and white and neat teeth when he spoke, for the first time, made her realize that she was still a woman and could still be liked.
"Daws, Daws...... Little thief, where are you now, are you okay? ”
"This damn battlefield!"
In the electric light, the blood light can be faintly seen from the palm prints.
Seeing this blood, a wisp of tenderness that suddenly surged in her heart disappeared in an instant, and was replaced by her unique strength.
During the day, she slaughtered three thieves with her own hands and won this little encounter.
Although the scale of the battle was small, the thief army only had about 200 men. However, they suddenly came out of the reeds by boat, and the area around Hunan was mostly paddy fields and river forks, which was not conducive to cavalry charges. He and a dozen of his knights were blocked by them on the river embankment, and on the other side was a rotten paddy field, which could not be spread out at all. Although in the end, relying on the bravery of the cavalry army, he finally repelled the group of thieves, but he still paid the price of four lives.
Those are the elite of the Tokyo Left-behind Division, these days, the qualified cavalry died one less and one less, and there was no place to replenish it if it was consumed. Moreover, they followed themselves from Kaifeng, walked most of China, and were not allowed to return to their hometowns until they died.
Thinking of the four brothers who were now buried in the open space at the head of the village, Chen Lanruo's heart was blocked for a while.
She has experienced too many battles like this in the past few months. Since Li Tianwang's army came to Hunan, the battle was still very smooth at the beginning, although Zhong Xiang Zhong Demon gathered tens of thousands of believers, the momentum was huge, but after all, it was a group of rabble, and how could it be the opponent of the regular army.
But as the battle continued, the war changed a lot, and the situation began to be unfavorable to Li Tianwang.
The demons of Manichaeism are also ruthless, and they threaten all the people everywhere they go, recruit the manpower and material resources that can be levied before, and kill those who can't be taken away, burn them clean, and give the imperial army a strong wall to clear the wilderness.
And Li Cheng took the same approach.
Both sides have the goal of completely destroying the economic base and war potential of their opponents in order to rob and strengthen themselves.
That's it, if you kill me, you will kill me, and if you burn me, I will burn. The southern part of Dongting Lake was smashed into ruins. After two days on the road, there were scattered corpses everywhere. Not to mention a living person, not even a bird can see one.
This is where the army passes, and there is no grass!
Li Tianwang thought that after coming to Dingzhou, he would be able to easily quell the rebellion of Zhong Xiang, and use this military exploits to open his teeth and build a mansion, which will be prosperous and rich. However, after fighting, Zhong Xiang changed his style of play after repeated setbacks.
He no longer gathered a large army to fight Li Cheng, but turned his troops into small teams of several hundred people, taking advantage of the geographical advantages, and shuttled back and forth among the rivers and reeds in small boats. When he saw that he had a chance, he took a cold shot and gave Li Cheng a blow. I couldn't beat it, so I whistled away.
There are no boats, and they are not accustomed to water, and the poor northern men under Li Cheng can only watch the enemy fly away.
In one battle after another, the combat effectiveness of those demons under Zhong Xiang has also been greatly improved, and they gradually fought with Li Chengjun.
The war dragged on, and Li Tianwang's manpower and material resources were also consumed, and it was gradually difficult to continue. Robbery alone can no longer sustain the army's food and clothing.
Li Chengbu's men and horses did not move, and after crossing the Yangtze River in the south, there were only more than 7,000 left. Later, there were many battles in the south of the Yangtze River, and only 5,000 were left in Hunan. Now such a consumption is even more insufficient.
Li Tianwang was also anxious, and after entering Dingzhou, he simply pulled down his face, directly swept the city's property, and conscripted all the men in the city into the army. It is a pity that the officials and gentry in Dingzhou City sent people to invite Li Cheng to come to Dingzhou in order to relieve the siege of Zhongxiang, and the result was that "I want the central government, I hope for the central government, and the central government will suffer even more when it comes." ”
In the troubled times, Chen Lanruo was not sympathetic to the people of Dingzhou: he had no brains, and he opened the door to welcome the tiger, so he had to blame others.
After recruiting men from Dingzhou City, Li Chengjun finally expanded to 20,000, and the main force of soldiers finally reached the previous 7,000. However, the combat effectiveness is much worse.
Moreover, those rotten folk men simply do not have qualified cavalry to replenish.
Thinking of the cavalry army that he was fighting less and less, Chen Lanruo was worried. He lowered his head and thought about how he would deal with it if the Zhong Demon Man still used that kind of tactic.
Just as he was thinking, several cavalrymen who were suddenly laughing and eating wine suddenly stopped, and the room suddenly became quiet.
Chen Lanruo had a cold hair standing on the back of her neck, and suddenly pulled out the clothes hanging on the side and covered her body, and shouted: "Enemy attack, get on the horse, and prepare to fight!" ”
When everyone was finished, they went out of the house and jumped on their horses.
I heard the sound of horses' hooves coming from far and near, and the target was this deserted village.
"It seems that we have really been bitten by the demons, and the enemy is one mile away from me, twenty horses. Hehe, play cavalry assault with me, and get an axe in the class. Chen Lanruo smiled coldly, "Let's go, meet up, kill this thief, let's come back and have a drink." ”
The long lance in his hand shook, and the sky was full of buzzing and trembling.
All the cavalry responded at the same time: "I am willing to follow the general and ride to fight, we haven't scared anyone yet." The battle was fought during the day, and tonight we'll have to give those puppies a little bit of power. ”
"Thief, the lance in grandpa's hand has just been grinded, watch me poke your **!"
"Smash your eggs!"
"Birdman, come here, let Grandpa kill you!"
In the midst of laughter, more than a dozen horsemen roared out, and the long lances of the horses shone with a terrifying light in the night.
rushed out of the village, and sure enough, there were about twenty cavalry in the previous life, all of them were light horses, each of them only had a knife in his hand, and the equipment was extremely poor.
Chen Lanruo shouted: "Straighten up the formation and prepare to charge!" ”
Seeing Chen Lanruo and the others, the enemy on the opposite side was in a mess, and they were all shouting: "Your own people, don't do it, don't do it." ”
A familiar voice sounded: "General Chen, it's me, it's me!" ”
Everyone looked at him, and then they recognized him, and they all relaxed, and shouted: "It turned out to be Mr. Tao, in the middle of the night, what are you doing here?" ”
Sure enough, one of the men came on horseback.
This person is thin and small, with two stiff mouse whiskers on his mouth, and he looks very obscene, and he is Tao Zisi, the mastermind of Li Tianwang.
He ran to Chen Lanruo's side, and smiled flatteringly: "General Chen, I heard that you had an encounter with the demon's water army today, I couldn't rest assured, so I brought people and horses to come over to respond." Hey, it's okay if you're okay, so I'm relieved. The general went out of the city to suppress the thieves for many days, but he was cleared. ”
As he spoke, his greedy gaze fell on Chen Lanruo's chest, which was not too full.
Being stared at by this obscene middle-aged man with lustful eyes, Chen Lanruo felt uncomfortable even if she was a heroine in the middle of the women. This guy doesn't know what evil he has fallen into, since the army crossed the Yangtze River in the south, he has changed his love for himself in the past, and has been running over all day to offer courtesy, and he also said to the king that he wants to marry her.
Isn't this a joke, this bird-feathered beast is a dog shit, and he only likes to tell right and wrong and play conspiracy on weekdays. What kind of person is I, Chen Lanruo, even if I want to remarry, I have to marry a hero like Wang Daosi, and the surname Tao is also worthy?
Fortunately, the Heavenly King just smiled and said, "Zisi, you are old, if Lan Ruo is really a Fanghua, marrying you is also wronged, don't mention this matter again." ”
Tao Zisi finally asked for four concubines from the Heavenly King before leaving.
However, in the next year, this guy refused to give up, and still came over to provoke the obsession, which made Chen Lanruo angry and anxious.
Everyone is working under Li Tianwang, and it is not easy to turn against him.
Looking at Tao Zisi's physically and mentally exhausted face at this moment, Chen Lanruo suppressed the urge to poke his face with a lance, and said coldly: "Look at what to see, I'm not welcome to look at Hugh again." Mr. Tao, you are as timid as a mouse on weekdays, and you only know how to hide in the big tent of the Chinese army and point fingers, how can you have the courage to go into battle in person today? Tell me, did my father-in-law have urgent military affairs to consult with me and sent someone to look for me? ”
Hearing her break this, Tao Zisi was greatly embarrassed and coughed: "Yes, it is an urgent matter, the king of heaven sent me an order, so that I must return to Dingzhou early tomorrow morning, not only me, but even Ma Jin and the commanders of all armies must return to the city." ”
Chen Lanruo was shocked in her heart and asked urgently: "But what happened?" ”
"There is a great event, it is reported that Wang Shen, the defense envoy of Huangzhou, is swearing in Anlu and preparing to come to Hunan to exterminate Zhong Xiang. Seeing that it was the beginning of autumn, the King of Heaven estimated that in a month at most, Wang Shen's main force would come to Dingzhou. ”
"Ah...... Wang Shen ...... "There was a flash of lightning that swept through the sky, illuminating the sky and the earth white, followed by earth-shattering thunder. Chen Lanruo's body shook, she used all her strength to hold the horse lance, and her knuckles turned white because of the force.
Seeing Chen Lanruo's expression, Tao Zisi felt a strong jealousy in his heart, and sneered: "General Chen can be regarded as looking forward to Wang Daosi!" ”
"Wang Shen, I'm going to kill you!" Chen Lanruo let out a long roar and threw the horse lance in his hand fiercely.
The long lance was nailed to the big tree in front of it, and it trembled and buzzed.
"Whoa!" Heavy rain fell from the sky, drenching her head and face.
Tears welled up like a spring, and then they were washed away by the rain.
