Chapter 557: Lao Tzu Doing Things, It's Your Matter!
"Shoot!"
.
"Bang bang bang!"
"Bang bang bang!"
"Bang bang bang!"
The rest of the snipers opened fire one after another.
They're all professional snipers who can take down an enemy with a single shot. Moreover, the targets they shoot at are often the leaders of the enemy. The leader of Ma Jiajun is still relatively easy to identify. I don't know who came up with the solution, the big and small leaders wore hats of different colors, and as a result, they were just caught by the Tiger Army.
With the sound of gunshots, outside Dongjiabao, the leader of the Ma Jiajun continued to fall. Ma Jiajun, who couldn't figure out the situation, dispersed in a hurry. They were fast when they arrived, and they were just as fast when they fled. It's hard to imagine that such a team can actually run rampant in Hejian Mansion. If they didn't have an official background, they would have been wiped out countless times.
"Keep shooting!"
Zhang Zhun said coldly.
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
The snipers kept shooting in the back, and the fleeing Ma Jiajun kept falling. Some of the leaders of the Ma Jiajun, even if they escaped from a distance of 60 zhang, were hit by Mini's bullets that were chasing from behind, and fell to the ground. For a while, both inside and outside of Dongjiabao were stunned.
What is it called?
Fight?
Slaughter?
After a fierce burst of gunfire, there was no longer any Ma Jiajun standing outside. There was only Ma Jiajun who was desperately fleeing. Those Ma Jiajun who escaped with their lives, even if they escaped from the shooting range of the tiger gun, they still ran fast. After a while, their figures all disappeared.
Zhang Zhun said calmly: "Okay! You can take someone out in pursuit! ”
Dong Mianwu was obviously a little distracted, as if he couldn't imagine that the Tiger Ben Army was so powerful. was slapped on the shoulder by Zhang Zhun before he came to his senses. When he came to his senses, he hurriedly said, "Good! ”
"Kill me out!"
"Kill those bastards!"
Suddenly, before Dong Mourning Wu could move, Dong Huaxia's voice came from the side.
Zhang Zhun turned his head to look, and just saw Dong Huaxia coming down from the city wall angrily. He grabbed his red tassel gun with one hand, and with a wave of his hand, he took the Dong family disciples out to kill. The atrocities of the Ma family army aroused the anger of the children of the Dong family, and they followed behind Dong Huaxia with red tassel guns, and there were four or five hundred people.
"Squeak quack!"
The heavy gate of the fort was slowly opened.
Those disciples of the Dong family in white clothes and white pants, under the leadership of Dong Huaxia, quickly went out to kill outside. The arrival of the Tiger Army gave them great self-confidence. Ma Jiajun's atrocities made them angry at the same time. After leaving the city, they carried all the same spears and looked everywhere for the traces of Ma Jiajun.
In fact, the Ma Jiajun outside the city, who could run, ran all out, and the rest were basically wounded. Or maybe they're so scared that they can't run at all. Dong Huaxia and the others were unrelenting, holding their spears, and went up one by one, one at a time, and picked all the injured Ma Jiajun.
After there was no survivor, Dong Huaxia commanded the children of the Dong family to put out the fire, and he himself took a few disciples to find Ma Laosan's body, and then dragged him up and transported him back to the fort. At this time, the people of Dongjia Village in the castle also poured out one after another to help put out the fire. Seeing Ma Laosan's corpse, the people came up angrily and wanted to break him into pieces, but Dong Huaxia stopped him. He also wants to keep Ma Laosan's body on display.
Dong Sanhuai, Cao Siming, Liu Zongshao, Liu Zongli and others came to Zhang Zhun with heavy steps. Zhang Zhun stood there with a solemn face and did not speak. Dong Sanhuai's expression was very complicated, he wanted to say something, but he didn't say it. It can be seen that he is still quite skeptical, and his ideological burden is quite heavy.
Zhang Zhun said slowly: "Old Dong, are you going to say that I did something wrong?" ”
Dong Sanhuai sighed helplessly.
It just so happened that Dong Huaxia dragged Ma Laosan's body in from outside the castle, and said loudly: "Dad, I am willing to follow Lord Dudu!" I can't stand a day like this anymore! Look at Ma Laosan, now he is like a dead dog! Damn, what's the big deal? ”
After all, he is young, and his position changes relatively quickly. Following Zhang Zhun's rebellion, he may have concerns, but Ma Jiajun bullied people too much, and he really couldn't help it. Now, everyone has been killed, and he wants to open it. The feeling of being bullied is so uncomfortable, and it is still the most refreshing now. If you dare to provoke me, I will dare to kill you!
Cao Siming, Liu Zongshao, Liu Zongli and others all came over to look at Ma Laosan's corpse. Ma Laosan, who was extremely arrogant in the past, was hit by three Mini bullets and died on the spot. On the surface, the wound of the Mini bullet is only the size of a peanut. This is much more powerful than ordinary hidden weapons. So, they couldn't help but turn around, subconsciously looking at the Tiger Ben Gun used by the Tiger Ben Army. This is a real killer! No wonder even such a ferocious Tartar was killed by thousands of them in one breath by the Tiger Ben Army!
As the eldest son, Dong Mourning Wu was a little more stable, and said slowly: "Dad, everyone else is bullied to the brain, if we still passively swallow our anger, maybe even Dong Jiabao will be robbed by them tomorrow." Is it tolerable, or is it intolerable? We can't take it anymore! ”
Dong Huaxia said angrily: "That's right! We can't take it anymore! The more we endure, the more they think we are weak and deceitful! We will rise up and rebel! Even if it's a rebellion, let's admit it! Now, there are so many anti-thieves in the world, there are not many of us, and there are many of us! We're the opposite! ”
Dong Sanhuai frowned and shouted, "What nonsense are you talking about? ”
Dong Huaxia craned his neck and said angrily: "Daddy, see for yourself, what is the result of our repeated endurance?" If it weren't for the Tiger Army's action, the houses outside, as well as the clothes and food inside the houses, would have been burned by Ma Laosan. It's winter, and a big snowstorm is coming. The villagers have no houses, no clothes, no food, how can they survive the winter? Ma Laosan, this is forcing us to a dead end. We have no other way but to rebel. ”
Dong Mourning Wu said: "Daddy, will you forget the tragedy of He Jichun's family, right?" If we are not the Three Castles Union, and there is still a little power to resist, I believe that our Dong family will definitely be the fate of He Jichun's family. Uncle Cao, Uncle Liu, you say, don't you? ”
Cao Siming sighed helplessly, and said obscurely: "Alas, Ma Laosan...... Feudal official...... A dog...... Kill a dog, and there are many more! ”
Liu Zongshao nodded and said: "Since we have killed Ma Laosan, we have no way out, let's get up and do it!" Let's unite all the martial arts practitioners in Cangzhou to do it together! I think they've been trying to rebel for a long time. It's not a human life at all. If you say that you have to pay the money, you have to pay the money, otherwise you will set fire to the house, and the means are even more cruel than Tartars! ”
Liu Zongli also nodded and said, "There is only one way to rebel!" I think we used to worry too much about the future. Now there are so many rebels in the world, in the 36th battalion of the Central Plains, in Shandong, and Zhang Dudu, let's participate in a point, it's nothing. I look at the number of qi in the imperial court, and it's about the same. The officials only know how to make money desperately, regardless of the life or death of the people, such a court cannot last long. ”
Dong Huaxia said angrily: "That's right! Those who are officials know how to make money, and they don't care about anything else! The Tartars entered the Kou twice, and all the officers and soldiers hid in the town, and they didn't dare to meet the Tartars at all! If the Tartars go south again, they will certainly do the same! We have to protect ourselves, only we have to fight by ourselves! ”
Dong Sanhuai finally made up his mind, turned his head to look at Zhang Zhun, and said in a deep voice: "Lord Dudu, can we send the old, weak, sick and disabled away first?" ”
Zhang Zhun said affirmatively: "Of course you can." ”
Dong Sanhuai said bitterly: "Then there is labor." ”
Zhang Zhun nodded, asked Zhang Haibin to come over, and carefully discussed the matter of retreating the people with Dong Mourningwu. Since Dong Sanhuai proposed to evacuate the old, weak, sick and disabled, he was preparing to deal with the enemy to the end. Whether this enemy is the Ma army or the Tartar cavalry.
To evacuate the population and at the same time transport the Tiger Army, a ready-made port is needed. Dongjiabao, Caojiabao and Liujiabao are zigzag structures, and Liujiabao is by the sea. Liujiabao has its own wharf. In the past, Liujiabao had been in the shipping business for a while, but then the situation changed too quickly, and they slowly left the sea.
"Who's going to see the docks with me?"
Zhang Zhun said in a deep voice.
"Your Excellency, please!"
Liu Zongshao took the initiative to say.
Zhang Zhun nodded, rode horses with Liu Zongshao and others, and quickly came to the dock of Liujiabao. The wharf in Liujiabao is indeed relatively simple, with only three berths. However, the foundation is still there. The surrounding terrain can expand the berths of the wharf to at least ten or more. As long as the strong men of the Three Castles are willing to dispatch, the dock can be expanded soon.
The four castle lords were worried about a large number of people, so they did not dare to provoke an incident and swallowed their anger. Now, the people can retreat to live in Laizhou Mansion, and their worries are naturally much less. According to their request, except for the respective disciples of the Three Forts, everyone else retreated to Laizhou Mansion for a while.
Of course, there is some reluctance to leave their homeland, and those people who are asked to leave are a little reluctant, but they have to leave as soon as possible. Listening to the tone above, this place will soon become a battlefield. If they continue to stay here, they will definitely suffer the damage of the war. In the face of disaster and their homeland, they certainly know how to choose. Besides, they don't have a chance to come back. As long as the Tartars are defeated and Beizhili returns to calm, they still have a chance to come back.
Zhang Zhun said confidently: "Gaomi County, Laizhou Prefecture, has a large amount of land, and I can carve out three larger areas for you there. I don't think you need to, though. It's absolutely safe there. ”
At this point, the four castle masters also wanted to open. The more you endure some people and some things, the more others will bully them to the top. If you give him a hard shot, things will change in no time. Since his situation is not good, he can only follow the Tiger Benjun and find a way to change his fate.
At Zhang Zhun's suggestion, the three forts gathered their respective disciples and formed the Volunteer Army. The official number is "Cangzhou Volunteer Army". The strength of the Volunteers was 1,600 in total. The commanders were Dong Sanhuai, Cao Siming, Liu Zongshao, Liu Zongli and other four people. Their main duty was to assist the Tiger Army in their battles. At present, the main responsibility is to make all preparations before the big war.
Dong Mianwu took the initiative to take on the responsibility of helping the residents retreat, and discussed the relevant details with Zhang Haibin. Liu Zongli was responsible for leading part of the volunteers to expand the wharf. Zhang Zhun himself was also at the wharf in Liujiabao and personally supervised the work. The warship brought by Zhang Haibin was moored outside the port and unloaded some of the supplies.
During the break, Zhang Zhun instilled some ideas that were easy for them to accept to the younger generation of the volunteers. For these young disciples, rebellion or something is indeed very exciting. In the past period of time, they were really bullied by Ma Jiajun. Most of the people who practice martial arts are relatively easy to get excited. Forced by the situation, they had to hide their anger. Now, Zhang Zhun has successfully unleashed their anger, and the anger has been transformed into combat effectiveness, and the effect is considerable.
Zhang Zhun, who has been a non-commissioned officer for eight years, also understands the psychology of these young people very well, and knows how to do what they like and win them over. A young man like Dong Huaxia, who is easily impulsive and full of energy, is Zhang Zhun's main goal. Soon, Dong Huaxia began to be full of hope and fighting spirit for the rebellion. Up and down the Volunteer Army, except for a few castle owners, everyone else basically threw themselves completely to the side of the Tiger Army.
"My lord, the fleet has arrived."
Two days later, the merchant ships of the Tiger Army Navy began to dock at the dock of Liujiabao one after another, sending some supplies and some of the Tiger Ben Army. The supplies sent by the merchant ships were mainly cement. This is an indispensable building material for the construction of the wharf. In addition to cement, there is a lot of wood and stone. There are basically no mountains and no forests, and stones and timber are relatively scarce.
"My lord, the leopard riding camp reports to you!"
Liu Jixiang got off the boat and reported to Zhang Zhun excitedly.
"Good!"
Zhang Zhun smiled and nodded.
The first Tiger Army to arrive was, of course, the Leopard Cavalry Battalion soldiers led by Liu Jixiang. In a place like Beizhili, the role of cavalry is the most prominent, and Zhang Zhun naturally had to transfer the leopard cavalry over as soon as possible. As soon as the timing is right, the dragoons and tiger cavalry will also be transferred.
After the soldiers of the leopard cavalry battalion arrived, they immediately attracted the collective onlookers of most of the soldiers of the volunteers. No way, handsome! Really handsome! The uniforms of the cavalry of the Tiger Ben Army are specially made in accordance with the uniforms of the armed police, and they look very straight. Each fighter also has specially customized combat boots. Coupled with two horses per person, it is really majestic and high-spirited, attracting the attention of countless people. For example, Dong Huaxia's envious eyes couldn't help but burst into flames.
When it comes to the number of war horses, Dongjiabao also has more than a hundred. As long as you are willing to spend some silver, there is generally no shortage of war horses in this place of Beizhili. However, such a handsome cavalry has never been there. In the general cavalry team, due to the need to wear armor, it is impossible to put the military uniform on the outside. Therefore, it does not look so uniform and solemn. Of course, the armor itself carries a powerful deterrent power.
What's more, the Leopard Cavalry is definitely not just handsome on the surface, it also has super combat effectiveness. It has been almost a year since the cavalry of the Tiger Army was formed, and its combat effectiveness has been initially formed. The great victory of Huangxian County is due to the contribution of the leopard cavalry. Even Dong Huaxia was so envious of the leopard cavalry, not to mention the other children of the Dong family. What young man does not aspire to such an army?
The deputy commander of the Leopard Cavalry Battalion was none other than Li Zhaohui. Li Zhaohui was born in Guanning Iron Cavalry, and he has quite a set of training in riding. After the end of the Huangxian War, the leopard cavalry battalion conducted rigorous training near Huangxian. Under Li Zhaohui's training, the riding skills of the soldiers of the leopard cavalry battalion have improved quite quickly. The appearance of the Leopard cavalry in Beizhili is, of course, eye-catching.
Of course, there is another very important reason for the improvement of the combat effectiveness of the Leopard Cavalry, that is, the Huben Navy has captured a considerable number of good horses from the Tartars, which further enhances the strength of the Leopard Cavalry. Good cavalry needs good war horses, there is no doubt about it.
It's a pity that Dong Huaxia has inquired with Zhang Zhun that the cavalry of the Tiger Ben Army will not expand for the time being. The main reason is that there are not enough war horses. Dongjiabao, Caojiabao, Liujiabao and other three places all the war horses combined, less than 500. Obviously, with only 500 war horses, Zhang Zhun could not be allowed to expand his army. There was no way, Dong Huaxia had to find a way to see where to get more war horses.
The arrival of the Tiger Ben Army and the Leopard Cavalry greatly stabilized the mentality of the people. The people of Caojiabao and Liujiabao, as well as their respective disciples, all came to watch the style of the leopard cavalry. And the leopard cavalry also seemed to be very active, completely controlling the field within a radius of tens of miles. The spies of the Leopard Cavalry even went out to the outside of Cangzhou County.
After a brief discussion, Zhang Zhun decided to build a military camp in the open space between the triangles of Caojiabao, Dongjiabao and Liujiabao. A large number of young men began to dig trenches according to the white line drawn by Zhang Zhun in order to successfully stop the approach of the Tartar cavalry. Timber from behind, as well as cement, tents and other equipment, will also arrive one after another.
"My lord, Hejian Mansion sent someone to ask for a meeting."
When he was busy, Liu Mang suddenly came to report.
"Riverhouse?"
"Who?"
Zhang Zhun asked lazily.
"Liu Guoda, the magistrate of Cangzhou."
Liu Mang replied.
"Call him!"
Zhang Zhun frowned.
Liu Mang turned around and went out, and soon brought Liu Guoda up.
Zhang Zhun glanced at the other party casually, and said indifferently: "I am Zhang Zhun." ”
Liu Guoda said respectfully: "Lord Governor, the officials are polite." ”
Zhang Zhun said casually: "Don't talk nonsense, what's the matter with you?" ”
Liu Guoda said with some dissatisfaction: "Your Excellency is the commander of Shandong Military Affairs, why did you come to Hejian Mansion?" And bring so many soldiers and horses? ”
Zhang Zhun said casually: "I'm here to visit relatives,"
Liu Guoda couldn't help but say: "I don't know what kind of relatives Lord Du Du and Dong Jiabao are?" ”
Zhang Zhun said very seriously: "I have a concubine, also surnamed Dong, and Dongjiabao is her family. Visiting relatives and friends, staying for a while, does Lord Liu feel that there is any problem? ”
Speaking of which, he suddenly remembered why he thought that the maid who served tea in Dong Jiabao was a little familiar, it turned out that she actually looked a little like Dong Shuyan. Strange, how can she look like Dong Shuyan? Could it be that Dong Shuyan and Dong Jiabao still have something to do with each other?
Liu Guoda frowned and said, "If you stay for a while, there is naturally no problem." However, there was a conflict between the Governor and the Ma clan in Nanpi, and the Ma clan had already sued Hejian Mansion. After all, this is not the jurisdiction of adults, and adults live here, but I am afraid that something is wrong. ”
Zhang Zhun sneered and said disdainfully: "Liu Guoda, are you questioning me?" ”
Liu Guoda is a civil official. Civilian officials always have a little psychological advantage in front of military generals. Although he is only the magistrate of the seventh grade, and Zhang Zhun is the governor of the first grade, in his heart, he does look down on these martial artists. Therefore, he said painlessly: "Don't dare, this official just wants to find out the truth!" ”
Zhang Zhun smiled slightly and said coldly: "Very good!" I also want to get to the bottom of it! I want to ask the emperor and the cabinet, what is going on with this so-called salary increase? When Ma Jiajun came to Dongjiabao, he set fire to the house without asking about it, which was even more ferocious than Tartar! I want to see who gave him the guts! ”
Liu Guoda's complexion changed slightly.
The increase is just a gimmick they come up with by themselves, to loot other people's money into their own purses. In this year, everything is fake, only the silver is real. As long as they can get money, they dare to use any means. However, if Zhang Zhun really pokes it out, this matter is really difficult to handle.
Emperor Chongzhen, ahem, the emperor is not a benevolent lord. Chongzhen is worried about how to get enough money to meet the huge military spending. For this reason, he racked his brains, searched for dry intestines, and pondered how to make money every day. To put it more bluntly, even if you kill someone and set fire, Chongzhen may not bother to pay attention to you. However, if you embezzle his money, but he happens to know about it, you will definitely die without a place to bury.
Liu Guoda said in a strong manner: "We are loyal to the country, and the sacred heart is self-evident." ”
Zhang Zhun smiled coldly and said disdainfully: "Since that's the case, you can go back!" Remember to tell your colleagues that from now on, the 50 miles around Dongjiabao, Caojiabao, and Liujiabao are military restricted areas, and all unincorporated people are not allowed to enter. ”
Liu Guoda's face turned blue with anger, but he didn't dare to say anything.
Zhang Zhun ran to his door, and then set aside a piece of land, telling you that this land is now a military restricted area, and no one is allowed to enter without his approval, this is not a ...... Did you deliberately slap yourself in the face? What's worse is that apart from extremely despising such a martial artist Qiu Hachi in his heart, he really has no better way.
In desperation, Liu Guoda left in a huff.
Zhang Zhun said casually in the back: "Lao Tzu does things, it's your business!" It's your turn to squeak crooked! ”
"Da Da Da!"
Suddenly, there was the sound of horses' hooves.
But it was the Leopard Cavalry Battalion's Tanma who reported that the Ma Jiajun had dispatched again, and they were coming to Dongjiabao with great momentum. The one who took the lead was none other than Ma Jinwu, the boss of the Nanpima clan.
