Knock knock knock......

Guo Ye personally held the hammer and beat the drum in front of the battle, and attacked the sword and shield battalion in the first battle of the north gate.

Under the rumbling drums, Ruan Laosan led the sword and shield battalion Tiger Ben straight to Qianzhou City, which was three miles away.

The fast-moving team of thousands of people raised dust and fog to cover the sky, until the thousands of people in the Sword and Shield Battalion disappeared In Guo Ye's eyes, he looked at the drumsticks in front of him and the drumsticks in his hands did not stop, and the drums continued to beat for a long time, as if he wanted to compete with the heavenly thunder.

The sword and shield battalion traveled less than a mile away from the north gate of Qianzhou City, and Ruan Laosan suddenly grabbed the reins and ordered the messenger to say: "Pass the order to go down and suspend the advance." Inform the captains of each team to form a shield wall in units of 100 people, and then slow down and squirm towards the north gate of Qianzhou City. ”

"Whoa!"

"Yes!"

The two Ruan Laosan's personal soldiers immediately turned their horses' heads, and while riding their horses and shouting to spread the word, they kept waving small colored flags in their hands, warning the sword and shield battalion with flags.

Da Da Da ~ Under the sound of hurried horses' hooves, Zhang Zhiyong rode his horse to Ruan Laosan's side, and arched his hand: "Pioneer officer Zhang Zhiyong, wait for Ruan Lang to send!" ”

Ruan Laosan said: "Officer Zhang Xianxian, once the shield wall is formed, I will lead the army to the north gate, and you will lead a thousand sons to follow." However, my shield wall can only escort you to a hundred paces or so from the north gate, and then it will be up to you and a thousand brothers to storm the door. ”

"No problem!"

Zhang Zhiyong raised the steel knife in his hand and said in a deep voice: "At that time, Ruan Lang will only need to order the brothers of the Sword and Shield Battalion to make a way for Zhang." The remaining 100 steps are up to us. As for whether to live or die, it is up to God to decide. ”

"What a guts!"

Ruan Laosan approved, arched his hand and said, "Then you go down and prepare, take care!" ”

"Driving~"

Zhang Zhiyong quickly turned the horse's head and turned back.

Da Da Da ~ There was another sound of tight horses' hooves, and a high-spirited young and crazy figure approached Ruan Laosan, shouting: "General Ruan Lang, Lord Guo ordered me to be the right vanguard officer, and I will also go with Zhang Xianguan to hit the city gate in that moment, how about it?" ”

The person who came was Xue Rengui, who had recommended himself before and took the initiative to invite him.

"Fart!"

Ruan Laosan glared at him fiercely, spat on the ground, and scolded Xue Rengui: "Little Brother Guo, oh no, Lord Guo has made you a right pioneer, you kid really treat yourself as a green onion?" Lord Guo has ordered, your kid is on the battlefield for the first time, so you must follow me without leaving half a step, and you must not act without permission. Otherwise, you go back and continue to be your herald. ”

"Hugh is underestimating!"

Xue Rengui looked at Ruan Laosan angrily, raised the iron tire bow in his hand, and said arrogantly: "If you don't let me charge, I won't go." But within a hundred paces, I will be able to shoot the bandit who defends the city, and I will see! ”

Ruan Laosan knew that Xue Rengui was a junior brother on the battlefield, and after listening to the other party's unobstructed words, he immediately included Xue Rengui, a kid, in the ranks of embroidered pillows who were born as famous teachers, but had low eyes and great achievements.

Then he shook his head and sneered, and said: "Don't brag here, I think when Lao Tzu followed his little brother to fight against bandits in Longxi County for the first time, he almost peed his pants in fright." Can you, a fledgling boy, shoot the bandit leader as soon as you go into battle? And it's a hundred steps away? Roll the calves and learn a little more by my side. Your third uncle is a battle-hardened old man. ”

Xue Rengui has always been arrogant, listening to Ruan Laosan's merciless belittlement, his face naturally couldn't hold back, but with Guo Ye's order first, he didn't want to go back to be a herald for Lao Shizi.

So I had to snort angrily: "Let's see! ”

After a while, several captains of the Sword and Shield Battalion stepped forward to report that the shield wall had been formed and could move forward at any time.

Ruan Laosan praised loudly when he heard this, and ordered the herald to blow the horn and order dozens of shield walls composed of hundreds of people to move forward.

Woohoo... Woooooooo

One after another, the humanoid shield walls began to move forward, in an orderly manner, without the slightest chaos.

The first battle of the North Gate has officially begun!

……

……

Qianzhou City, North Gate.

Thousands of White Lotus Sect bandits wearing white robes were stationed on the city tower in batches. However, this bandit army defending the city was not from the regular army, it was composed of some members and believers of the White Lotus Sect, and many of them were forcibly recruited into the Protector Army.

Therefore, from the bandit army guarding the city on the north gate tower, there is no trace of military style at all. On the contrary, more like a bunch of lazy ruffians. That is, the rabble that Guo Ye and Li Jing said.

At this time, it was time for dinner, so the city tower was even more noisy and messy, and there was a lot of frolicking and noisy noise.

About 5,000 people were eating dinner on the castle tower, and the movement was as noisy as the bazaar.

The leader of the defense of the north gate of Qianzhou City is surnamed Wu, with a single name and a tiger character, and the person is as his name, with a tiger on his back and a wolf's waist, and he looks like a powerful and reckless man. His status in the White Lotus Sect is really not low, and he is one of the Eight King Kongs under the White Lotus Sect Leader Hu Bilie.

In addition to the sect leader Hu Bilie in the White Lotus Sect, there are two elders, four deacons, and eight vajras. These people were the backbone of the original Manichaeism, Taiping Dao, and the White Lotus Society, and after the formation of the White Lotus Sect, they naturally became the core figures in the sect.

It can be seen that Wu Hu, who led 5,000 Dharma Protectors to defend the north gate, has a pivotal position in the White Lotus Sect.

At this time, Wu Hu was setting up a table under the eaves of the city tower, drinking and eating meat with several henchmen.

Bang Dang!

After killing another bowl of wine, Wu Hu burped, drunkenly put his hand on the shoulder of a henchman next to him, and shouted, "How is it?" Since following Lao Tzu's rebellion, have you been happy to live with the immortals? ”

"Hey, that's that."

The leader sneered, "When I was in Taiping Dao, the brothers followed Chief Wu. Now that it has become the White Lotus Sect, the brothers still follow the leader of Wu. Hehe, the leader of Mengwu can afford it, and our brothers each lead a thousand people to protect the Dharma, drinking wine and eating meat all day long, and the life is very comfortable! ”

"Of course!"

One of the leaders sitting on the opposite side also echoed the flattery: "Since the White Lotus Sect started in the south, how many cities have you captured?" This official army really didn't fight, and when he arrived, he was stunned to see that as soon as our White Lotus Sect came, he lost the city and fled. Haha, what's that word for? ”

"Flee from the wind!"

Another leader stood up, and while carrying the wine jar to pour wine for Wu Hu, he patted his ass and said: "Brothers, these days, people have not killed less, they have drunk less wine, they have eaten less meat, and women have not played less. Ahem, but, Chief Wu, the brothers haven't paid a reward for a long time. ”

The so-called reward of the White Lotus Sect is actually the same as the army's salary, but they are not an army raised by the imperial court, so they have no habit of paying silver.

It was only by sacrificing and slaughtering the city that he secretly hid some silver in his pocket. It was mainly up to the leaders of the White Lotus Sect to give them a reward of silver.

After the leader finished speaking, he glanced at the few small leaders at the table and motioned for everyone to talk to Wu Hu about it.

After a few people received the look, they were about to open their mouths to speak, when suddenly the drunken Wu Hu raised his hand - bang!

A heavy palm fell on the wine table, spilling most of the freshly filled wine in the bowl.

Wu Huhong's drunken face turned ruthless, and he scolded and said: "Reward silver and reward silver, you know that you want to reward your mother with silver." Lao Tzu knows that you are all worried about the gold and silver treasures that are hoarded in the city. Phew, don't talk about you, even Lao Tzu is red-eyed, it was looted from the fifteen cities of Lingnan Road, and it is rich enough to rival the country. Hiccup......"

Wu Hu burped again, glanced at a few people fiercely, and said, "But don't say that Lao Tzu doesn't dare to fight those gold and silver treasures, even the sect leader can't make his own decisions, do you understand?" A bunch of stupid fools, do you really think that our White Lotus Sect can be where it is today, and it all depends on the sect leader's command? Wake up, there are still people behind our White Lotus Sect who have ideas! Hehe, before the White Lotus Sect was completed, had you ever seen those two elders beside our sect leader? ”

Those two elders who wore a dead face all day long?

Several of the small leaders present had the honor of meeting the two elders in Lingnan Mansion, and vaguely remembered that the sect leader Hu Bilie had great respect for the two of them.

Now when they heard Wu Hu, who was one of the Eight King Kongs of the White Lotus Sect, say this, several people's faces showed a bit of shock.

Immediately, they all asked, "Chief, what is the origin of these two elders?" ”

"Brother Tiger, could it be that there is someone behind our White Lotus Sect who is controlling everything?"

"My God, Brother Wu, you can talk to the brothers, so that we little pawns can also have a long experience, okay?"

"Hiccup~"

Wu Hu burped again, then picked up the only half bowl of wine on the table and drank it all, raised his hand and wiped the wine stains on his mouth with his sleeve, and said in an urn voice: "Okay, say it today so that you can see it for a long time!" If you want to talk about these two elders, they have a big head. You've heard ......"

"Newspaper—"

"Report it!!"

Suddenly, several urgent reports came one after another to interrupt Wu Hu's speech, and I saw several White Lotus bandits guarding the city running to the wine table and shouting at Wu Hu:

"Leader Wu, there is a situation under the city!"

"Leader, it seems that the officials and soldiers of the imperial court are coming!"

Boom!

When Wu Hu heard this, he shouted in shock: "The officials and soldiers of the imperial court are coming to suppress it? How is this possible? ”

At this time, Wu Hu completely sobered up, and was so frightened that he sobered up!
