Chapter Thirty-Nine: The Bandit Army
Yang Lin, who got up early, took Wang Erniu to play Tai Chi on a dirt slope outside the entrance of the cave for an hour, the cold fog in the mountain is obviously more like Yin Qi than the Yin Qi that Li Bin said, practicing is now a habit that Yang Lin Lei can't move, after seeing the battle between the scorpion and the urging Erfan, Yang Lin has strengthened his determination.
"Erniu, do you remember my mantra?"
"Remember, a watermelon is divided into two halves, half for you and half for me······ It turns out that practicing martial arts is so simple, and I Erniu may be able to become a peerless master in a few years. ”
For Wang Erniu, who had big nerves, Yang Lin could only roll his eyes, he was sweating after two punches, but Wang Erniu was cold all over, and the internal reason did not need to be explained.
After breakfast, the generals and soldiers of Yanglin gathered together, the common weapons of the navy are longbows and crossbows, as well as a small number of crossbows, due to the cost of reasons, even the most elite team under Zhang Liang is not fully equipped, so the five hundred sailors in the hands of the hands of only fifty crossbows and more than a hundred boxwood longbows, crossbows are only equipped with a few centurions, Yanglin is very dissatisfied after counting the number of arrows and crossbows, but there is no way, lack of money is the problem of various departments and even the whole country in the early Tang Dynasty, In turn, the poorer the country, one can imagine how rich the rich are.
Yang Lin now has no time to study the way to make a fortune, the first thing he wants to teach everyone is the angle, the angle of the bow, the calculation of the landing point of the arrow, in the secret hemp jungle, direct shooting will definitely not work, there are too many obstacles of several tree trunks, so everyone has to practice throwing, after several rounds of calculations, Yang Lin got a more accurate number, and set up a distance mark around the cave, that is, cut a few pieces of bark on the bark casually, others would not think that this is to play a role in marking the distance.
The training task in the morning of the first day was basically over, and in the afternoon, Yanglin organized everyone to dig up and trap in, and arranged various fortifications, in fact, these Dongdong Yanglin were seen in the movies of later generations, but Zhang Long and Zhao Hu, who led the troops, were stunned, and those who have this kind of defense means can generally become the generals of the army.
After two consecutive days of arming work, Yang Lin felt that Tunliangdong was already a relatively safe camp, so everyone rested, and at the same time began to teach everyone to sing military songs, so as to ease everyone's feelings.
"The red glow flies in the west mountain at sunset, the soldiers shoot the target and return the camp to the camp, the red flowers on the chest reflect the colorful glow, the happy singing is flying all over the sky, Mi Suo Na Mi Suo, Na Suo Mi Dolai, the happy singing is flying all over the sky······"
When the smoke of the dinner stove rose, the whole Tunliang Cave sang the pleasant military song 'Return from Shooting'. This military song is simple and easy to learn, with a cheerful rhythm, and is deeply loved by the soldiers.
In the camp of the Luoyang City Guards, the Erfan who hurried for three days finally saw the Hou Junji of the governor Luoyang, and the big tent urged Erfan to see the Dugu Mou who sent the letter, I heard that there were masters among the robbers, and even the master of the big inner Er Fan suffered a loss, but it aroused Dugumou's competitive heart, Luoyang is located in the center of the Henan Plain, the garrison has many cavalry, and Hou Junji is also a cavalry general. Since Dugumou asked for war, Hou Junji was naturally happy to be idle, anyway, he was a person sent by the emperor, and the meaning couldn't be more obvious, so he allocated Dugumou a guard and horse, and asked him to go to the river with Erfan to suppress the bandits, and he began to send people and big ships to the river to prepare to transport grain.
In addition to the Qianniuwei who was in charge of the imperial city, the rest of the ace armies such as the left and right Weiwei were counted according to the strong men who governed the military households, such as Zuo Weiwei, there were more than 30,000 people in the strongest period, and there were only more than 20,000 people left, each person represented a family, and when the strong men of that family grew up again, I don't know how many years, so the number of people was not full, and Hou Junji handed over to Dugumou's Luoyang Wei is even more so, and only 5,000 people are called a guard.
The speed of gathering the army into the mountain is naturally slow, and it took three days for the lone ranger to rush to Luoyang, and it took at least seven days to rush from Luoyang to the Tunliang Cave with the army, which is still not a problem, and the Erfan can only pray that Yanglin can hold on to the Tunliang Cave for ten days.
In fact, the day after urging Erfan and Dugumou to lead the army to set off, Zhao Heihu's men and horses had already arrived at Tunliang Cave, that is, after Yang Lin had been stationed in Tunliang Cave for five days.
"Forty-five degrees, full strings, put."
Yang Lin used a telescope to observe the robbers who had been killed, and the number was more than Yang Lin imagined, there were nearly 4,000 or so, and there was no shortage of skilled martial arts players, which was the real team that hijacked the grain ship. With the number reported by Yang Lin, Zhang Long decisively issued an attack order.
"Tuk-tuk······
"Puff Puff ······"
The arrows are thrown in the air, the speed will be faster and faster, and the landing point is just the front of the bandits' impact, only a hundred arrows will go down, dozens of people will be killed and injured, and the accuracy is completely beyond Zhao Heihu's expectations.
On a big tree in the distance, after a few days of recuperation, the scorpion who has recovered from his injuries is observing the situation of the team's attack on the mountain, the first round of arrow rain down, he knows that the general guarding the cave is probably not simple, and the general who can master the landing point of the bow and arrow after a round of positioning and shooting can already be regarded as a famous general.
"Fifty degrees, full strings, put."
A round of arrow rain made the robber formation that rushed over a hundred steps away a little panicked, but it still rushed forward more than a dozen steps, and the second round of arrows came in an instant, and took away the lives of dozens of bandits, this loss is even greater than the hard attack on the city wall, Zhao Heihu, who looked anxious, was distressed, and the thousands of people and horses who were not damaged when attacking the grain ship were killed and injured more than a hundred in just a few breaths, this is the good hand of his nephews and nephews trained by him! Zhao Heihu, who couldn't bear it, stretched out his hand, and the minion next to him handed him a big axe, Zhao Heihu jumped violently, and the tall and thick figure instantly jumped out of more than ten zhang, shooting towards the entrance of the Tunliang Cave, this is another master who is at the same level as Xuan Erfan.
The red beam flickered, and the body of the scorpion in the treetop shook.
"Bang."
The sound of the gun was even more terrifying under the echo of the cave, Zhao Heihu was holding the axe in his hand and was resisting the arrow in the air, and suddenly felt a huge impact force on the body, and the body instantly fell from the air like a kite with a broken line, in the battle circle, the martial arts masters saw that the situation of the two masters suddenly changed, and they couldn't care about the arrow disease like rain, and in a short period of time, three good hands jumped up to support Zhao Heihu's body, and when they reached the ground, Zhao Heihu, who had practiced kung fu to the point that the arrow was difficult to hurt, had already been blurred in flesh and blood, and there was less than half a life left.
"Retreat."
The bandits, who were not even afraid of death, were shocked by a scene between lightning and flint, and the attack launched by 4,000 people ended in more than 100 dead and wounded in less than half an hour, and the second leader was seriously injured.
"Heaven bestows the horse with might."
"Heaven bestows the horse with might."
The infrared beam swept across the battlefield for a week, and did not disappear until the bandits retreated far away, and the scorpion on the treetops could not see the situation inside the cave at all, but judging from the reaction of the officials and soldiers, it should be the so-called heavenly concubine, a seven or eight-year-old child, who controlled this extremely powerful killing weapon.
The morale of the bandit army dropped to a very low point, the red beam was like a divine light, leaving a huge shadow of fear in their hearts, when the scorpion slowly came to the camp of the bandit army, the old servant Xu, who knew a little trauma medical skills, had already cleaned up the shrapnel on Zhao Heihu's body, and a small handful of bloody brass shards were placed in a small copper plate.
"I thought that you were good at practicing kung fu and could stop this evil thing, but I didn't expect to end up like me." The scorpion's eyes were not aimed at Zhao Heihu, who was wailing, and the old servant Xu had already briefly described the matter of the red beam to him, but Zhao Heihu, who did not take it seriously with his copper skin and iron bones, still suffered, what he didn't know was that the scorpion was shot at a distance of 600 meters, if he was also at this distance, the situation should be better, but he was shot in the air at a distance of more than 100 meters, not only the protective wallet was shattered like tissue paper, but the shrapnel almost pierced his internal organs, asked for his old life, the scorpion looked at the shrapnel, and secretly congratulated himself that he didn't take a straight blow like Zhao Heihu, otherwise, I am afraid that I will not be able to die anymore without practicing qigong.
"There is such an evil thing in the imperial court, I am afraid that we will not be able to attack it, but after a long time, the army of the imperial court is coming, and we can only escape to the mountains."
Seeing that it is the most painful thing to see and not being able to eat, the 800,000 stone grain in the Tunliang Cave is a huge bait, and it is also a difficult bone to gnaw, so that the scorpion is in a dilemma, Xu Lao Servant is right, if you want to fight against such evil things, I am afraid there is no chance of winning, as soon as the imperial army comes, they only have to escape, but he is not reconciled, and decided to find a way to explore this Tunliang Cave at night, to find out what this evil thing looks like, if there is a chance, maybe he can assassinate the horse that day and destroy the evil thing.
