Chapter Eighty-Seven: Double Reeds
The fire in Fengyang City seemed to be much smaller, but the fire in the direction of the Imperial Tomb outside the city seemed to be even bigger than before, and the entire sky had turned transparent red and was slightly distorted.
A gust of hot wind blew, and the snowflakes floating in the air also turned into a light rain and fell hazy. There was a smell of cypress trees in the air, and there was no need to ask, it must be the peasant army burning 10,000 big cypress trees outside Huangxing Temple.
Under the red sky, more than twenty musketeers were still lined up in a neat formation, and their faces were bright and uncertain in the light.
The wounded soldiers in the courtyard were still moaning loudly, making the rain floating in the air even colder.
Although the musket has a short range and poor accuracy, as long as you withdraw a hundred meters away, if you want to be shot, it is equivalent to stepping on **** when you go out, and you step on two lumps in a row. However, if you can enter the yard at a distance of 20 meters, the chance of being shot increases by 100 percent under intensive fire. Therefore, no matter how miserable the wounded soldiers were, no matter how eager the intruders outside were, Liu Zongmin would rather shoot without mistake than call someone to rescue them.
The two sides began to confront each other, and this situation fell into the eyes of Fei Hong and others, but they thought that the soldiers were timid.
The donkey spat outside: "This group of thieves is a useless thing, brothers don't be afraid." ”
Just as he was about to say something impassionedly, next to him, Wen Laosan stretched out his hand: "Donkey, if you have a fire rope, borrow some." ”
"What arquebus?" The donkey snorted, and when he looked back, he was taken aback. But I saw that the rope hanging on Wen Laosan's musket was only a finger long. At most, you can burn half a pot of tea.
Looking at the others, the arquebuses on the guns were also much shorter, and the longest one was only about a foot long.
I think that when I was fighting in Henan, as soon as I went to the battlefield, it was because of this that the musketeers carried as many arquebuses as possible. It's not surprising that a battle formation lasts all day, and it needs to be at least a meter long. Sometimes, for insurance, it is possible to take him two or three meters and wrap it around his waist a few times.
Wen Laosan still has that weird look of yin and yang: "The thief army is afraid of our firearms and dare not rush here." However, wait a little longer, and we won't need them to attack, and when our arquebuses are all burned out, the guns in our hands are worse than burning sticks. ”
The donkey hurriedly said: "Fei Tou, instead of sitting and waiting, it is better to kill it now." ”
Wen Laosan said in a strange voice: "Kill out, you speak lightly, when we musketeers fight, we must be protected by spearmen, and sometimes we have to open the way with artillery." Let's rush out now, surrounded by people on all sides, but I'm afraid that if we don't kill a thief, we will be eaten clean by others first. ”
The donkey was furious: "That's not going to do nothing, and the group of daring imps in front of me don't fight me, what can I do?" ”
Fei Hong suddenly cried out sadly: "It's all my fault, it's all my fault, if it weren't for my insistence on returning to the city, your brothers wouldn't have ended up in such a field as they are now." ”
Wen Laosan sneered: "Fei Tou'er, I think that Sun Xianggong is a ghost, Fengyang was in chaos like that last night, I'm afraid that he ran faster than us, how could he wait for death in the city, in my opinion, he shouldn't have entered the city to save him at all, but now it's okay, but we will be filled." ”
Fei Hong shook his head: "The grace of a drop of water should be reciprocated by a spring." We have received the great favor of Sun Xianggong, so we naturally have to repay it, otherwise, are we still individuals? No matter whether he haunts the city or not, he must always go to the dock to see it in person to be at ease. ”
Wen Laosan: "Sure enough, that Sun Xianggong had already run away, and there was not even a shadow of a boat on the dock." This is a peace of mind, but unfortunately we are going to be unlucky, and even Erya was arrested by the thief army. ”
As soon as he heard Wen Laosan mention his daughter, old tears came out of Fei Hong's eyes, and he murmured: "Second girl, daddy can't stand you, can't stand you......"
Seeing that he was sad like this, the donkey glared at Wen Laosan angrily and shouted: "Wen Jianjian, what the hell are you talking about, isn't this pouring salt on Brother Fei's wound?" ”
Wen Laosan was not convinced, and said in a loud voice: "It's so difficult that I said it wrong, Fei Tou is a good person, and everyone is very convinced." But he's not a good leader, you have to admit that! ”
"You!" The donkey was furious, so angry that his face turned red, and he turned his gun and pointed at Wen Laosan.
Wen Laosan grabbed the muzzle of his gun and put it on his forehead: "There is a kind, do you want to kill your brother, come here, anyway, you can't survive today." ”
Fei Hong's tears fell: "It's me Fei Hong who doesn't, you brothers have been with me for ten years." For so many years, the big guy hasn't enjoyed a day of happiness, and he is still a big soldier. ”
At this time, someone shouted: "Boss, someone is coming!" ”
The team was once again in one, and the donkey turned his gun and looked fixedly ahead.
I saw a tall and thin man walking over and shouting: "Don't shoot, I am General Liu's staff, I came to negotiate with you, I am Sun Yuan!" ”
As soon as they heard that it was Sun Yuan, all the musketeers were stunned.
Before they could scream, Sun Yuan ran over with an arrow, kept glancing at everyone, and kept waving his hands to signal them not to speak.
Fei Hong hurriedly shouted to everyone: "Don't speak." ”
The "Sun Xianggong" blurted out by everyone was swallowed back into his stomach.
Sun Yuan ran to Fei Hong, didn't care about anything else, and said in a low voice: "Erya is with me, it's okay, don't worry." The thieves told you to surrender, and you answered first, find an opportunity to flee again, and obey my orders. ”
Then he deliberately said loudly: "I don't know where you heroes come from." Then he kept squeezing his eyes at the crowd.
As soon as he heard that Erya was fine, Fei Hong breathed a long sigh of relief, and his face was full of gratitude.
Although he didn't understand why Sun Yuan was doing this, he still raised his breath and said loudly: "Fei Hong, the firearms battalion of Datong Town is defending the seventh grade. ”
Outside, there was a commotion in the army, and some people exchanged heads: "Ah, Zhengqipin, isn't this a big official?" ”
"Yes, big official, the seventh grade master!"
The peasant army has no knowledge, and in their opinion, the county lord of Zhengqipin is already a high-ranking figure. But he didn't know that the rank of the Zhengqipin officer in the army was low, and in the eyes of the officialdom, he was no different from an ordinary soldier.
"The Datong border army, from the seven-quality management team, is sound and sound."
"The firearms battalion of the Datong border is rich from Zhao of the seven-quality management team."
"Zhengjiupinjia Changlu Mid-Autumn Festival."
"From the seventh quality management team Chen Xiaosi."
……
The intrusive army outside was even more commotionous.
"My mother, why are there so many officials."
Liu Zongmin was also moved when he heard it: That bird feather show talent...... Well, what Master Sun said is really good, this group of people is really the main force of the border army, and they have to be with official ranks, as long as they are pulled over, they can be used as family members immediately.
At this time, someone over there shouted sullenly: "I am from the seven-grade management team of the firearms battalion of Datong Town, surnamed Jiang, no name, they all call me a donkey." ”
"Haha!" Liu Zongmin couldn't help laughing, and the other peasant armies also laughed with Zhongjiao, and for a while, the murderous aura on the battlefield dissipated a lot.
The reason why Sun Yuan asked Fei Hong and others to report their names and origins was mainly to let Liu Zongmin know that this group of people were all officers of the border army of the Ming Dynasty, who had rich experience in warfare, and were the talents urgently needed in the army.
After the musketeers finished reporting their names, Sun Yuan whispered: "When I surrender you, you first pretend not to agree, and then put the musket on my head." However, after my persuasion, you finally agreed. ”
To tell the truth, Sun Yuan does not have Liu Zongmin's complete trust now, and Liu Zongmin also sent Xiao Ding and others to monitor his Yan family. With so many tails following behind, it is not easy to find the seal of the household department or find a way to escape.
It's better to play a good play, so that Liu Zongmin thinks that he is determined to go with the peasant army and lower their vigilance.
Fei Hong blinked, indicating that he understood.
Sun Yuan said loudly again: "You must also understand the situation in front of you, you have been surrounded by me, quickly lay down your weapons and let our army fall, otherwise you will ......" and then said in a low voice, "Quickly draw your gun." ”
"Shut up!" Fei Hong roared angrily, and the musket in his hand was pressed against Sun Yuan's temple.
At this time, an unexpected situation appeared, and on the other end, Er Ya exclaimed: "Don't, don't...... Daddy......"
Sun Yuan was shocked, before he came over to be a lobbyist just now, he had already told Erya to stop making a sound.
But at the juncture, Erya couldn't help but scream. If she accidentally shouted and leaked her mouth, so that Liu Zongmin knew that Fei Hong was her father and that she was the father-in-law of their father and daughter, things would be in trouble.
Sun Yuan hurriedly turned around, laughed, and interrupted Erya's exclamation: "Good lady, you and I are just a spring breeze, I didn't expect you to be my wife." Rest assured, this group of rammers is not unreasonable, and your man will be fine. ”
Erya suddenly remembered Sun Yuan's advice just now, and hurriedly covered her mouth with her hand.
The other intruders all burst out laughing and said, "Master Sun's donkey-sized licensed goods are really powerful, this little lady saw his power and tasted it, but she couldn't bear it." ”
Someone said: "Maybe the master was superb when he did that." ”
"Yes, yes, this person has read books, his brain is flexible, and his tricks are naturally much more than ours who only know how to peel off their clothes and pounce on them."
Liu Zongmin also laughed so much that he almost fell off the horse: Today's incident is much more interesting than the slaughter of the city, and this Master Sun is a wonderful person.
Listening to the thief's obsceneness, Erya was ashamed and angry, and tears fell again.
Xindao: My whole person is Shao Wei's son, although I am in a hurry today, but if I want viagra to hear it, I can't wash it by jumping into the Yellow River, woo, how can this be good?
Seeing that Sun Yuan was put to his head with a gun, he actually talked and laughed freely, and the soldiers of the army were greatly admired.
Fei Hong gritted his teeth and gently pressed Sun Yuan's head with the barrel of the gun, and deliberately shouted: "Don't talk nonsense, and scream again, can't you blow your head?" ”
Sun Yuan laughed: "The army did not kill the envoy when he came to fight, and his head fell off with a big scar, and twenty years later, Sun Mou is a good man again." ”
This is a rough word, but the soldiers are all peasants, and only then can they understand it.
Suddenly, there were thieves cheering: "Good! ”
"Good man!"
"Master Sun is so good!"
