Chapter 10: Ambush at the Boundary Pass

Zhang Jin said that this person was originally a peasant in Changshan County, and a few years ago there was a famine, the grain harvest failed, and he could not pay taxes, so he instigated hundreds of young and strong people from his fellow villagers to rush into the county seat and kill the county order, open a warehouse to release grain, recruit troops and buy 10,000 people, and almost occupied the entire Changshan County. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 But as his power swells, so do his shortcomings: greedy, lustful, and brutal.

Almost all the people in Changshan County are soldiers, from sixty-year-old people to fourteenteen or fifteen teenagers, all of whom are Zhang Jin's conscription targets. So he was brutal and simply did not restrain military discipline, and allowed his subordinates to act recklessly, robbing money and grain everywhere, and humiliating women, and the people of Changshan County were immediately killed if they resisted the slightest resistance. The whole of Changshan County is a hell.

And Zhang Jin said that he was also extremely indulgent, and forcibly married dozens of young girls to enrich his harem for him to have sex day and night.

In the afternoon of this day, Zhang Jincheng's military advisor Ren Ji hurriedly walked into the gate of Zhang Jincheng's Caotou Palace, walked directly to the back hall, and just walked to the gate of the courtyard, several Zhang Jincheng's personal soldiers stopped him, "Sir, please stop!" The leader of the pro-soldiers shook his head, "You can't go in now." ”

Ren Ji heard bursts of women's screams and laughter coming from the back hall, and he couldn't help but sigh secretly, since Song Jiang's main force withdrew to Qinghe County to face Gao Chang, Zhang Jin said that he had become more and more indulgent himself. The Han army and Song Jiang fought a big battle, no matter who won or lost, their next target would be Zhang Jincheng, but Zhang Jincheng had no sense of distress at all, and only knew how to enjoy himself all day.

Ren Ji was so anxious that he was stopped by the soldiers twice, and he was so anxious that he shouted: "King, something has happened in Qinghe County!" The Han army has come to kill us! ”

The laughter in the inner hall suddenly stopped, and then the sound of broken dishes and the screams of several women was heard, only to hear Zhang Jincheng scolding angrily: "Get out of here, get out of here!" ”

In a moment, the courtyard door opened. I saw Zhang Jincheng, who was naked and full of alcohol, rushed out and asked angrily, "Where is the Han army?" Is Song Jiang a rice bucket? It was wiped out by the Han army so quickly! ”

Ren Ji took out a letter of information. He said calmly: "This is the latest news from the patrol, just north of us. It is reported that Song Jiang and the Han general HB recruited Gao Chang to fight in Rao County, and was killed and defeated. Successively folded Shi Jin, Mu Hong, Ou Peng, Mu Chun and other generals, has given up the periphery of Qizhou, Beihai, Qinghe County and other places, the whole army retreated to his old nest Jeju Liangshanbo, Gao Chang has no water division, can not attack Liangshanbo for a while, so he left some soldiers and horses to garrison, and the brigade of men and horses went straight to our Changshan. ”

Zhang Jin said that he was suddenly scared into a cold sweat, and most of the wine woke up, and then scolded: "Song Jiang, you old dog is so useless, you can escape really fast, Gao Chang Xiaoer, if you can't beat Song Jiang, you will pinch Lao Tzu as a soft persimmon." Although he scolded badly, Zhang Jin said that he felt that he was empty-hearted, after all, he couldn't even beat Song Jiang, and Gao Chang beat Song Jiang so much that he only dared to hide in Liangshanbo's lair.

Zhang Jin said that he had to let go of his arrogance at this time, and said to Ren Ji: "Sir, please come into the house to discuss the military situation!" ”

Although Ren Ji was unhappy in his heart, Ren Ji had received Zhang Jincheng's life-saving grace when he was just a poor scholar, and the life-saving grace had to be repaid, so he still followed Zhang Jincheng into the inner hall.

The inner hall was full of messes, and more than a dozen young women were busy cleaning up the dishes and tables, but Zhang Jin said that he had no patience to wait, and roared angrily, "Get out of here!" ”

More than a dozen women were so frightened that they crawled out, and Zhang Jincheng kicked open two tables, pulled over a soft mat, put on his robe, and found the map discarded in the corner.

"Where is the Han army now?" Zhang Jin said that he spread out the map on the soft seat and asked urgently.

Ren Ji knelt in front of the map. After looking at it for a moment, he pointed to a hill in the north and said: "This area is called Hawthorn Tree Gang, and 20,000 Han troops are currently stationed in this area. General Li Qingfang was leading his troops to confront him in the area of the boundary thirty miles away. ”

Zhang Jin said that he was overjoyed, "Li Qingfang did a good job, he occupied the boundary first, this place is easy to defend and difficult to attack, I will immediately go to support." As soon as my army arrives, Gao Chang Xiaoer, hum! I will see how his 20,000 men and horses can break through the defenses of my 80,000-strong army. ”

Zhang Jin said that he immediately led an army of 50,000 troops to the border to meet the Han army.

。。。。。。

The time was already the third watch in the evening, and Zhang Jin said that he knew the danger of the boundary pass, so he did not give his subordinates any time to rest, and rushed to the boundary pass non-stop. In the night, tens of thousands of thieves were running towards the northeast. The official road is flat and wide, and if they march overnight, they will reach the border by early tomorrow morning.

Zhang Jin said that he was in the middle of the team, riding on a black horse and constantly shouting: "Speed up! ”

。。。。。。

By the time of the fourth watch, Zhang Jincheng, who was riding on a horse, had already seen the boundary from afar, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but have a sneer. At this moment, Zhang Jincheng said that an unexpected threat suddenly appeared!

In a forest on the east side of the official road, a cavalry of 5,000 men was like a ghost in the night, and in an instant, it was killed among the thieves. The quality of Zhang Jin's subordinates was uneven, resulting in a great difference in physical strength, and after a night of rapid marching, the troops were stretched for nearly eight miles. In the face of the sudden Han cavalry, the thieves and soldiers were scattered, and the team was suddenly in chaos, many people turned around and fled, and more people collapsed to the ground in fright, and their legs were difficult to move.

The Han soldiers slaughtered like a storm, slashing with swords, heads rolling, and blood bursting out. In less than a quarter of an hour, Zhang Jin's army began to rout on all fronts, and the 50,000 thieves suffered heavy casualties and fled in all directions. Zhang Jin said that seeing that the situation was not good, he immediately jumped off his horse, led hundreds of personal soldiers, and fled south in a hurry under the protection of night. It's a pity that his military advisor Ren Ji didn't have such good luck, and in the chaos there was a Han general, who saw Ren Ji riding a good horse, and there were many elite protections around, guessing that it was an important person in the thief army, and immediately danced the knife and slapped the horse to kill, and shouted: "General Feng Sheng is here, and the thief has not dismounted." Ke Ling Ren Ji was a literati, and when he saw Feng Sheng killing like a wolf, he hurriedly commanded the elite soldiers around him, "Stop him, hurry!" Stop him! “

Feng Sheng waved his sword, and several pro-soldiers suddenly became headless ghosts. Ren Ji saw that his soul was scattered, turned around and urged the horse to flee. Feng Sheng sneered, took out his bow and arrows from his horse, and drew his bow and arrows. The sound of "whoosh" was right in the heart of Ren Ji. Ren Ji screamed and fell off his horse and died on the spot.
