271. Building a corpse as a dam Zhegao (4)

"Leper, what did the deputy envoy say?"

Sun Laosan sat on the pony and asked his partner who came back with a dirty face.

"Naturally, you scolded me, third brother, you are cunning, specifically instructed me to touch this moldy head, the original deputy envoy was very happy, as soon as I opened my mouth, I was immediately scolded!"

"Hehe, that's because you're stupid, you can't speak, and if you change me, the deputy envoy is not only ......"

"Dangdang, dang!" Before Sun Laosan finished speaking, he heard the sound of the gong, he cursed in a low voice, and then shouted: "Get up, you have to work hard, grandma's, I originally wanted to gamble a few enjoyable ...... first"

With the sound of the gong, the soldiers in the tents of each camp ran out one after another, but in a few moments, the makeshift fortress was already full of people.

"Time?" The leper said: "Didn't you say the second half of the night? ”

"Idiot, you mean that the second half of the night starts, but you don't mean that the first half of the night will be fine!" A person next to him whispered: "This is the rule that the young tiger sent someone to set, do you dare to disobey?" That is, you idiot, you were asked by the third branch to ask the deputy envoy if he could play two, you look at the third brother himself, he is the old man's family, and he doesn't ask himself! ”

"Mother, I'm really stupid." The leper patted his head: "Yes, the young tiger is helping us earn credit, after this battle, which of our brothers will not count a few achievements, and we can finally save some money to beg for a daughter-in-law." ”

"You? Don't think about it, you have a few copper dians, and they were also sucked away by the third child, so it's better for a stupid person to gamble...... You should be like the Tiger Guardian of the Young Tiger, someone must take care of it, except for a little pocket money, the rest of the money will be taken away and saved, and the interest will be calculated for you, if you want to withdraw it, you must have a reason! ”

These officers and soldiers came out at the same time as the guards, and they also had conversations with each other during breaks along the way, especially about the income of the guards and how those incomes were used. When the guards who came out of the Xiliu Courtyard, each person had at least five taels per month, they were already speechless, you know, these five taels are job subsidies plus allowances, not counting all kinds of rewards and subsidies, for example, if they are marching in the field, they will have field subsidies, if they go to war, they will have war subsidies, and the rewards for war achievements are even heavier, so these two hundred family guards, almost all of them have a net worth of several hundred taels of silver!

changed to the general sergeant's family, he worked hard to save some money, either lost in gambling or injected into the hole of the girls, but the tiger guards were different. Yu Guozhen forbade them to carry a large amount of cash with them, and military discipline strictly did not give them the opportunity to gamble and scoop, so there were only two ways for them to have money: one was a small number of well-known family guards, and the money was handed over to their families for safekeeping and disposal; The second is the kind of people who have no family, in addition to leaving pocket money, the silver money is deposited in Huwei Money Village for unified safekeeping, and when it is necessary to withdraw, it is only necessary to apply on paper, and the interest of one percent is calculated on a monthly basis.

"If I can be the housekeeper for Yu Gongzi, it will be beautiful." Leper head.

"Let's be a good errand for Governor Shi first, and maybe there will be a chance in the future." When Sun Laosan heard this, he turned around and said, "Shut up Lao Tzu and listen to the movement outside." ”

The gong sounded in the camp on their side, and the rogues on the opposite side also heard it, and now the two sides are facing each other across the river, and no one has destroyed the pontoon bridge, so there is also a stirring in the camp of the rogues on the opposite side. However, seeing that there was only a commotion here for a while, it was quiet again, and there was no movement on the other side.

"Damn, why hasn't the Kaishan Tiger moved?" On this side of the river, the prince muttered a curse.

In order to wait for the signal of the Kaishan Tiger to attack the officers and soldiers at night, they had not rested in the middle of the night. But judging by the appearance, we have to continue to wait.

It was about a moment of ugliness (about half past one in the morning), and the rogues who had been waiting for most of the night were already a little uncontrollable, and many people began to discuss whether there was something wrong with the Kaishan Tiger. Wang Zishun was also restless, and began to hesitate in his heart whether the night attack would continue.

Originally, what he controlled in his hands was him, the King of the Mixed World, and the three of Kaishan Tiger, and the combined strength of the three of them was only more than 20,000 people, and among them, the elite who could fight was only six or seven thousand. The King of the Mixed World folded nearly two thousand on the other side of the river, and the Kaishan Tiger divided nearly two thousand, and there were only a little more than three thousand that were still available in his hands, which already made him feel unsafe.

At this moment, outside the camp tent opposite, dozens of fires suddenly lit up, and then rockets flew wildly, as if a rapid and dense meteor shower had fallen in the air. After this rain of arrows, the sound of killing was everywhere, and the sound of horses' hooves seemed to come from all directions!

Immediately afterward, the screams of ghosts and wolves were heard in the camp of officers and soldiers, and flames rose to the sky everywhere. When the prince saw this scene, he was immediately overjoyed: "Okay, it is done, brothers, whether you eat meat and soup, or eat bran and vegetables, it depends on today, let's go!" ”

As soon as he gave the order, he couldn't hold back the Liukou and suddenly cheered out, rushing straight to the pontoon bridge. They crossed the bridge, and saw that the officers and soldiers who had been guarding here were indeed gone, and the cowards were even more excited, and they were about to rush to the camp, but at this moment, the sound of bangzi sounded.

The sound of bowstrings and muskets rang out almost simultaneously, and more than half of the more than 200 rogues who rushed across the bridge fell in the sound of death. The thieves behind them were unaware of the moment, and rushed forward, but then the second and third rounds of shooting arrived, and they were stuck on the bridge, unable to advance an inch.

Wang Zishun in the crowd also realized that something was wrong at this time, but before he could order a retreat, behind him, the thieves' camp suddenly burst into flames, and the sound of thunderous horses' hooves also came from all directions, in the darkness, I don't know how many riders there are!

"Why are there so many officers and soldiers, it's bad, it must be the Guanning army coming in a big way, damn it, it's a plan today!"

The prince was in line with his thoughts, and the officers and soldiers suddenly appeared behind him, and the attack of the Kaishan Tiger was only sound and not real, so it was obvious that the Kaishan Tiger had been completely destroyed. He didn't know that the Kaishan Tiger was rescued from drowning in a coma, and although he sent someone to deliver a message after waking up, he was intercepted and killed by Yu Guozhen halfway.

And at this time, Kaishan Tiger himself was also on the periphery of Sun Lin's camp, and when he saw the scene in front of him, he had nothing to do except sigh.

Nearly 3,000 Liukou, half on the bridge and half in the village, now the village is full of flames, shouts of killing and horses' hooves in all directions, and dense muskets are fired indiscriminately. In the dark night, the panic caused by this was great, and the thieves found that their night attack was a plan, and they were already depressed, and now that the enemy's counterattack appeared, they had no idea of victory, that is, Wang Zishun at this time, thinking about not organizing an effective defense, but how to escape.

Liu Ling drove the horse and shouted wildly, their biggest role was to intimidate and confuse the enemy, seeing that the thieves were getting more and more chaotic, his heart became more and more hot.

Then he saw Jia Zhen's figure, wearing the enamel bowl helmet on his head, holding a musket in his hand, unhurriedly firing at the bridgehead according to his fixed rhythm. Liu Ling saw the envy in his heart, and his heart suddenly moved: If he had made a special honor in this battle, he might really be able to cast himself under Yu Guozhen's account. Anyway, with the reputation of Yu Gongzi, what is it to ask Governor Shi for someone?

At this moment, a shout suddenly came from the pontoon, and then, a group of rogues jumped into the water despite the cold wind!

They were not far from this shore, and they tossed twice down the water and went ashore, and when they came ashore, they did not want to resist, but turned and fled.

This reminded the wanderers who could not advance or retreat on the pontoon bridge that the Zhegao River was not very deep or wide, and this year's winter was warm, the water surface was not frozen, and if you jumped for a while, you might not drown.

The first to jump into the water was Wang Zishun, his silver helmet shining in the firelight, and Liu Ling looked at it at a glance. He originally wanted to make a meritorious contribution so that he could use it as a promotion rank, or to be promoted among the officers and soldiers to make a fortune, or to join Yu Guozhen, who was better treated, so he didn't hesitate at all, and chased in that direction.

There is more than one person who thinks about it like him!

Whether it was wanting to perform in front of Yu Guozhen, or thinking about being promoted and making a fortune, everyone knew that the one whose helmet was shining in the firelight was the real big fish, so the officers and soldiers who were more than 200 and less than 300 chased after them.

Yu Guozhen frowned, and shouted: "Come back, come back!" ”

But it was noisy in the dark, and no matter how much he drank, where could it be passed on, and even if it did, there were not many of these people who were willing to throw away that great credit.

They all understand that the ten ** of the person wearing the silver helmet is the thief and the prince of Hengtian, and in the reward of the imperial court, it is the existence of a knight.

Seeing that he couldn't stop it, Yu Guozhen muttered and scolded, after all, it was only an officer and soldier who was temporarily dispatched, and in such a situation, he really couldn't do it like an arm. He sighed, this is their own path, and no one else can do it.

"Hugh is going to be messed up, continue to suppress." He commanded.

The sound of locks around him still maintained the original rhythm, so the guards did not change because of the abnormal movements of the officers and soldiers, and a small number of officers and soldiers still ran back and forth to bluff. And Sun Lin, on the other side of the bridge, after suppressing the rogues back onto the pontoon bridge and jumping into the water one after another, also led people to approach and began to shoot the rogues in the water on the shore.

The two ends were blocked, and the thieves couldn't get away at all in a hurry, and because there were many thieves in the night, Yu Guozhen was not prepared to take many more prisoners in this battle. So they shoot mercilessly, even when the rogues in the water cry and beg for mercy, they ignore them.

Under such a wild shot, the thieves in the Zhegao River are facing a one-sided massacre! Blood stained the river red, and the corpses were piled up in one place, almost becoming a weir that blocked the flow of water.

Liu Ling had already approached the group of thieves fleeing upstream along the river bank at this time, at first they were still bent on fleeing, but when they were a little far away from the battlefield of Deqiaodu, someone among the thieves suddenly shouted, and then dozens of thieves gathered together, turned around and recoiled. Liu Ling was chasing after him, but he didn't have time to react for a while, and a knife from nowhere in the darkness was slashing at his head.

At the last moment, Liu Ling thought in his heart that it would be nice if he also had a big enamel bowl on his head.
