Chapter 423: The Wang Family's Grain Transport Team Was Attacked
"When you leave, you take a thousand chickens with you, and another thousand for the New Year, plus five big fat pigs."
As soon as he finished speaking, Wang Shihua's heart was annoyed: Damn, Lao Tzu still can't do it to the point where his heart is like a stone, but why is there a sense of joy and relief flowing in his heart? Forget it, don't think about it, I, Wang Shihua, a dignified seven-foot man, why should I be afraid to do things?
These two jade bracelets are definitely several times the price of two thousand five hundred chickens and five big fat pigs on weekdays, but the problem is that now is the time of famine, the belly is bigger than the sky, and everything else has shrunk terribly, so Wang Shihua can still give Fang Jue so much at this time, and he is indeed moved by Fang Jue's words.
"Great! Lord Wang, I thank you for all the victims, your kind deeds will surely move heaven and earth......"
As soon as he heard this, Wang Shihua was a little dissatisfied in his heart: Are you praising me or scolding me?
Picking up the box at the moment, he asked angrily, "Can I take it now?" ”
"Of course, these two bracelets are already yours, and they match the other two."
"Why are you so generous this time, aren't you afraid that I won't give you anything after taking the bracelet?"
"Look at what you're saying." Fang Juele said hehehe: "You are the head of the family of tens of thousands of people, if you even rely on this little thing, compared to your reputation...... Scold! Scold! You know better than I am. ”
"Then why don't you give me the military expenses of my Baojing Regiment as soon as possible?"
"Public is public, private is private, and cannot be compared."
The matter discussed by the two is now decided.
At ten o'clock in the morning, 100,000 catties of grain and 1,000 chickens were ready, and Tieshi was escorted to the county seat with 1,000 people...... The days of training at the horse farm were too boring and difficult, and when they heard that there was a mission to go out, everyone asked for their lives, and even Iron and Stone were tempted. Wang Shihua saw that Tie Shi, who had never taken the initiative to ask for help in such a trivial matter, had to give him face, and others were not easy to fight with him, so Tie Shi led the team. And Yang Sanfeng and Tie Shi are good at marksmanship, they communicate more, and the relationship is very good. Tang Ming, this guy is used to being at ease, and under the offensive of money and bullets, he is like a fish in water in the Wang family, how can he stand the boring life of the training ground, and after arriving in the county seat, he invited them to visit the kiln on the condition that he got the name of the iron stone and became another deputy general.
After sending Fang Jue away, Wang Shihua did not go to the construction site to inspect for the first time, because his energy was attracted by the batch of weapons and ammunition that had already been shipped.
I never thought that something big would happen in terms of grain transportation.
Whether it is Wang Shihua or Tie Shi who leads the team, they all think that this time is just a formality, and the reason why they brought a thousand people is to act for Fang Jue, so that Fang Jue feels that the Wang family attaches great importance to it and is willing to spend effort to protect this transaction. Even Fang Jue himself felt that the road must be extremely safe.
The last time the grain transport team was attacked, the four major families and Tian Hezi were all involved, Fang Juemen was very clear, but who made him inferior in strength, he had to endure it. It can be different from last time, last time, the Wang family's escort personnel just arrived at the Jiangyin Grand Canyon and did not leave, and this time, the Wang family's 1,000 men and horses will directly escort the grain to the county granary. There is a family that ranks second among the four major families to personally escort it, which one dares to come up and look for death without opening his eyes?
If it weren't for the strict management of the army with iron and stone, the team would have become a bandit march long ago. After walking slowly for three or four hours, I came to the west entrance of the Jiangyin Grand Canyon at about half past one in the afternoon.
"Stones, the brethren are tired, and the sun is hot, I see, let's go to the canyon to hide from the sun, shall we?"
"Old Don, isn't this okay? The head of the house asked us to escort the grain ......."
Yang Sanfeng on the side said with a smile: "Stone, the head of the family just ordered that the grain should be safely delivered to the county seat and handed over to the surnamed Fang, and there was no specific time. In my opinion, let's take a rest, march in the afternoon, and rush to the county seat in the evening. It is not a hasty march, and it is not good to make the brothers so tired that they can't even carry their guns. ”
"If you want to rest, you can't rest in this canyon, and you can rest when you get out of the canyon safely. This is where they were ambushed last time. ”
"Stone, you think too much, can the surname Fang compare with our Wang family? Whether it is the other three families or other big bandits, they dare to bully the county magistrate Fang without soldiers, but do they dare to fight with our Wang family? It's not that I, Yang Sanfeng, bragging, but now our Wang family is strong, well-equipped, and has sufficient ammunition and food. I want to see which one of those who don't open their eyes dares to break ground on Tai Sui's head. ”
The Wang family is already proud, and the generals have long been cultivated into proud generals who are 'the first in the world and the second in Lao Tzu'. As soon as he heard this, Tie Shi inevitably felt a little proud in his heart, and after thinking about it, he smiled at the two of them and nodded slightly, and said, "Okay!" Then take a break at the entrance of the canyon, so that you can escape the heat and move in and out freely. ”
Tang Ming hurriedly clamped the horse's belly and chased after Fang Jue, who was riding a horse in front.
"County Magistrate Fang, seeing that the sun is about to reach its most vicious time, if the brothers are in a hurry, if they are too hard, if something happens, it will be bad if they can't keep up with their physical strength. I see, how about we go to the edge of the canyon and rest for an hour before we go? ”
Although Fang Jue made an agreement with Wang Shihua: he only received grain in the granary of the county seat, and anything happened to him in the middle of transporting grain had nothing to do with him. But so much food can save a lot of people, Fang Jue is naturally worried. And now that he has come to the place where he was ambushed, he is even more worried.
"Old Tang, I think it's better to rest after leaving the Grand Canyon, right?"
"County Magistrate Fang, don't worry, it's okay. We rested at the mouth of the canyon, advancing and retreating freely, and there was a signboard of my royal family here, so we couldn't do anything. ”
When County Magistrate Fang heard this, he thought about it, and he also felt that it was the best, and then looked up at the scorching sun, so he smiled and nodded.
Everyone was resting at the mouth of the valley, Yang Sanfeng saw that Tie Shi always looked up around, and looked around with binoculars from time to time, with a solemn face, so he smiled and said: "Shishi, are you looking for the sister of Shui Ling?" ”
"No, I'm watching the birds."
"Bird watching?"
"Yes! If a flock of birds suddenly flies, it means that there must be someone alive under the tree and other large animals passing by, so I can prepare. ”
When Lao Tang heard this, he smiled and said: "If you really don't feel at ease, wait a minute, Sanfeng and I will each take a team of people and horses to search the mountains on both sides of the canyon, how about it?" ”
Old Tang was joking, but he didn't think about it, so he nodded and said, "It's okay!" Wait for you and Sanfeng to take 200 people each to the mountains on both sides to guard it, and when the team passes, come down and make peace with us. ”
This is nothing to deploy, because this is the most common way to walk the rivers and lakes.
An hour later, Yang Sanfeng took 200 people to the south of the canyon to search and guard, while Tang Ming took people to the north of the mountain.
The devil is in the details, especially for snipers, many times, defeat is a trivial detail. Iron and stone really carried forward the calmness and delicacy of a sniper, and patiently waited until the top of the mountain on both sides was under the banner of safety, and then let everyone load their guns and rush forward quickly.
Nearly 20 minutes later, when it was less than 200 meters away from the mouth of the valley on the east side of the canyon......
"Stop! Stop it! ”
Tieshi turned his head suddenly, and when he saw the second stunned man's expression changed greatly, he rode over and shouted: "Second stunned, what are you doing?" ”
"Brother Shi, quickly turn the team around." The second stunned man rushed to the side of the iron stone, lowered his voice, and said hurriedly: "You sniff, sniff the air around you carefully." ”
Tie Shi took a deep breath, didn't feel any peculiar smell, and looked at the two stunned angrily. The anxious second stunned voice became even lower: "Brother Shi, there is an ambush here." Dog's day actually used chili powder to cover up the taste of black oil (oil), and almost hid it from me. Hurry back! ”
Iron and stone have rich experience, coupled with the trust in the second stunned man, when he heard this, he didn't even hear it, and immediately waved his hand and shouted: "The back team becomes the front team, give me a step back!" ”
After roaring, he leaned over to the county magistrate Fang, whose face was fused--as the main general, he naturally knew the severity: the food was gone, and it could be adjusted again, but if the county magistrate Fang was assassinated, his life and death would be small, and even if the great cause of the Wang family was not destroyed by the county magistrate's father, his strength would be greatly damaged.
Say it's too late, then it's too soon!
Just when the coachman was busy turning the carriage around, he saw firelight flickering halfway up the mountain on both sides, and soon saw two large fireballs rolling down halfway up the mountain on both sides, falling more than ten meters in front of the team and in the middle of the team.
"Boom! Rumble! ”
In the midst of two muffled sounds, two fire lines two or three meters wide ignited, and the flames soared to three or four meters high in an instant.
The second half of the whole team was okay and retreated smoothly, but the poor part of the first half of the people, more than 20 carriages, nearly 150 people, was besieged in the middle of the line of fire, and the two sides were forty or fifty meters apart, but everyone could not advance or retreat.
"Don't panic! There is no gunshot, only fire, don't mess with yourself......" The sniper is the most calm, and the iron stone listened to it with a pale face, but he didn't hear the gunshot, and turned around to shout at the ** who were like ants on a hot pot. The people around him also shouted loudly, and soon, the team settled down and quickly gathered around Iron Stone.
"Brother Shi, they use black oil, which can't be extinguished...... Cough! cough ......" In the firelight, the black smoke mixed with a large amount of pungent chili pepper smell rushed to this side, and as soon as the second stunned man said a word, he was choked and coughed, and even tears came out.
"Lie on the ground, don't choke on the smoke." At the critical moment, Fang Jue's insight or knowledge played a decisive role.
As soon as they heard what he said, everyone hurriedly fell to the ground, and their breathing was really smooth.
"Pull the reins and don't let the horses run wild...... If you can't do it, you will kill the horse. "At this time, no one mattered, whether it was horses or food. In fact, some of the horses were already running around in panic, stepping on some people who were lying on the ground, and there were screams one after another. With the sound of iron and stone, several shots were heard, and several horses fell to the ground in neighing...... Disorderly! Mess. But the safety of the iron stone and others in the center is still guaranteed.
"Stones, pour oil with water, the more you pour the fire, the bigger it gets, only with earth or sand."
"County Magistrate Fang, at this time, where do you want me to find sand for you?"
Iron Stone's voice fell......
"Boom! Rumble! Boom ......"
Just then, one of the enemy's killer tactics came.
I only heard several explosions in succession, and in the blazing firelight, several flames suddenly rose and scattered along with the explosion. A strong aroma of wine rises to the sky...... The emotional enemy was afraid that they would not be able to burn them, and they actually buried wine jars under the oil.
Under the ejection of a mass of sparks of different sizes, many people who were lying on the ground couldn't dodge, and were hit by sparks, and were immediately burned and ran around screaming...... The horses, which had been somewhat quiet, were frightened by the Martian bullets, and immediately panicked in the neighing, which aggravated the panic scene......
If at this time, someone takes advantage of the chaos to ambush again, they can definitely destroy Tie Shi and the others at a very small cost, or even zero casualties......
