Chapter 13: Taking Linjiang County (1)
Everything was calm, Lin Yue was sent to the Yangtze River by Zhang Yan and others, invited the best doctor in Jinyang County, and woke up two days later after treatment. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
This syncope was completely due to excessive blood loss, but fortunately, even if the bleeding stopped, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable.
I woke up in the early hours of the morning two days later, when the sun had just dawned and the sun had not risen.
Lin Yue opened his eyes, Zhang Yan, Xu Yuan and others stood in the house, seeing Lin Yue wake up, everyone's faces were happy, Zhang Yan said: "Big brother, you have been in a coma for two days, and you finally woke up." ”
Feeling the whole room shake, Lin Yue asked, "Is this in the boat?" ”
"Well, it's already on board."
The crowd nodded.
Xu Yuandao: "At the third watch this morning, we have left Jiangnan, and now we are on the Yangtze River, I have asked the fishermen in the village before we set off, when we arrive at the north bank of the Jiangbei, it should be half a month later." ”
"Half a month later..."
After repeating it, Lin Yue didn't say anything.
After a while, Lin Yue asked, "What happened to that battle, and what were the results?" ”
Speaking of the results, Zhang Yan and Xu Yuan looked at each other and smiled.
Zhao Youfu laughed and said: "Big brother, don't you know, later I sent people to search in the dense forest, caught more than 200 prisoners, captured countless weapons and armor, if it wasn't for Brother Zhang Yan sent someone to urge me, I could have caught more." ”
Liu Shi rolled his eyes and said, "What's the use of you catching more, it's not all released." ”
"You know what, where did all the armor you wear come from? It's not that Lao Tzu took it off the officers and soldiers, and if he doesn't capture the prisoners, isn't this battle fought in vain? ”
Zhao Youfu replied with a snort.
Lin Yue glanced at the two of them, his eyes stayed on Zhao Youfu, and said with a smile: "I didn't expect you to understand it too, that's right, we will grab whatever the officers and soldiers have, and when we cross the Yangtze River, our situation will be more dangerous, how can we do without good weapons and equipment." ”
"Look, the eldest brother has said so, you kid learn a little." Zhao Youfu glanced at Liu Shi and said.
Liu Shi pouted, and a nameless fire was forcibly suppressed by him.
"But what Liu Shi said is not unreasonable, we only have two hundred people, and it is useless to have more armor, but it increases the weight of the fishing boat, and when we get to Jiangbei, are we afraid that there will be no weapons and armor."
"Big brother, we don't have two hundred people anymore..."
On the side, Zhang Yan said with a guilty face.
Zhao Youfu's originally smiling face also regained its calm at this time.
Lin Yue asked, "Isn't it, we don't seem to have any casualties in the first battle of the Dense Forest?" ”
Zhang Yan said: "I took fifty brothers to lure the enemy before, and only fifteen came back; Later, when Youfu was taking prisoners in the dense forest, he encountered several forces of officers and soldiers who were fighting with trapped beasts, and under the battle, we lost thirteen people. ”
Originally, there were two hundred people when they came out of Heiyun Village, and the dense forest was arranged seamlessly, and forty-eight were killed, Lin Yue also felt a pain in his heart, he felt the same as Zhang Yan and others, from the moment the bandits called him eldest brother, Lin Yue regarded them as his brothers.
Everyone was silent for a while, Lin Yue forcibly suppressed the sour feeling in his heart, and said: "Since we have chosen this path, we should have no regrets, death is not terrible, this is our destination, serve the field, and return the horse leather shroud; These forty-eight brethren will watch us from heaven, and he wants us to avenge them, and he will also bless us to arrive in Mubei safely, and ask for the people's lives! ”
"Big brother has a point!" Zhang Yan arched his hand.
The other three also nodded in unison, and when they embarked on this road, they couldn't go back, so they could only move forward bravely, not afraid of life and death!
Especially Xu Yuan, a determined look appeared on his face, as if he had made a great determination.
"Big brother is right, what is there to be afraid of death, we have not been afraid since we were bandits, and we will not be afraid in the future!"
Xu Yuan said categorically.
Zhao Youfu looked at Xu Yuan and said, "Why are you robbing me again?" ”
He really thought so in his heart, but Xu Yuan said it first.
Although Liu Shi didn't say anything, he could see that his thoughts were the same as the other three.
Lin Yue was a little relieved in his heart, as long as everyone was not discouraged and not afraid of death, he had the confidence to cross the river to fight, although Jiangbei was dangerous, but he would go there, because that was the only way to Mubei, if he wanted to join the army, he had to cross the seven counties of Jiangbei!
.......
After Li Changshan and Feng Lan were washed away by the flood, they returned to Jinyang County for several days, this time the thieves were extremely dangerous, if the two were not hung by the branches, they didn't know where to rush, but they were afraid that they would die for a lifetime.
Zhu Li's death made the two of them both sad and regretful, sad that after all, they are both big families, with the same spirit and branches, sharing honor and disgrace, Zhu Li's death has a little impact on the Feng and Li families; As for regret, it doesn't mean Zhu Li, but because Lin Yue was not caught, the great credit flew away from under their noses like this, how could the two of them not be angry.
As soon as Lin Yue left, all his dreams came to naught...
After discussion, the two decided to send someone to Jiangbei quickly, although they failed to catch Lin Yue, but if they reported the news to Qin Zang, it would be a great achievement.
On the second day after returning to Jinyang County, Li Changshan sent a messenger to cross the Yangtze River in a fast boat and go to Jinshan County; Jinshan County is the head of Jiangbei, located in the seven counties, Qin Zang is stationed there, which is the capital of the seven counties of Jiangbei.
The journey from Jinyang to Jinshan is very long, even if it is 800 miles expedited, it will take several days to arrive, and with the water journey, it will take no less than 20 days.
Li Changshan's decision can be described as extremely beneficial to Lin Yue and the others, if it weren't for his greed for merit and insisting on reporting to Qin Zang, he would only need to send a message to a few counties in the north of the Jiangbei River, then Lin Yue and the others would have to face countless officers and soldiers as soon as they went ashore, and the consequences would be unimaginable.
Lin Yue didn't know about these, and after half a month of traveling, he finally arrived in Jiangbei, abandoned the ship and landed on the shore, and walked to the nearest county seat.
More than 150 people, all dressed in jet-black armor, carrying a longbow, waist and hip horizontal knife, very well-equipped, under the leadership of Lin Yue and others, rushed forward, met a lot of people along the way, and the people were all in a hurry to dodge.
Lin Yue's injuries had healed for the most part, and half a month's recuperation was enough for his wounds to heal, and at this time, riding on a tall horse, he didn't feel the slightest pain while walking.
After walking forward for thirty miles, everyone came to a valley, and with a wave of Lin Yue's hand, everyone stopped.
"Big brother, twenty miles further will be Linjiang County, should we take this county for rest."
On the side, Zhang Yan asked.
Lin Yue said: "Of course Linjiang County must be taken, but we have few people, so it is not appropriate to attack, so we will rest here for a while, and then go after changing our clothes." ”
As he spoke, Lin Yue turned over and dismounted, and walked towards a small hill not far ahead, watching the terrain of the valley as far as his eyes went.
Change?
The crowd was puzzled.
Zhang Yan and the others also turned over and dismounted, following closely, Liu Shi and Zhao Youfu turned around and went to give the order, so that everyone could rest in place.
"Big brother, what do you mean by changing clothes?"
Zhang Yan and Xu Yuan followed, and Zhang Yan asked.
Xu Yuan had a flash of inspiration, seemed to think of something, and said, "What does the eldest brother mean?" Before the officers and soldiers discovered us, we waited for the people to dress up and sneak into the city, and then take advantage of their unpreparedness to take Linjiang? ”
"Brother Xu is really agile, that's exactly what I mean."
Lin Yue looked back at Xu Yuan, his eyes were full of appreciation, among the several leaders of Heiyun Village, Lin Yue valued Xu Yuan the most, although his martial arts were slightly worse, he was sleek and thoughtful, and sometimes even Zhang Yan was inferior.
Zhang Yan suddenly nodded and said, "It's a good plan, but you have to implement it quickly, so as not to change later." ”
"Don't worry, the news of our landing shouldn't have reached Linjiang so quickly."
Lin Yue said: "Let the brothers rest for a while, wait for a quarter of an hour, then remove the armor and weapons on their bodies and hide them, and then pretend to be a caravan to march forward, and strive to enter Linjiang County before dark." ”
"Okay, I'll do it."
Zhang Yan turned around and walked down the small hill.
Xu Yuan frowned, seemed to be a little worried, and said, "Big brother, if the officers and soldiers of Jinyang County tell Linjiang County the news of our crossing of the Yangtze River, then wouldn't our trip be a self-defeating one?" ”
Lin Yue also frowned, his immature face became a little gloomy, Xu Yuan's concerns were not unreasonable, if this was the case, then it would be a little dangerous to go.
But when he thought about it carefully, he denied this possibility, shook his head and said: "It shouldn't be, if I were the commander of Jinyang County, I would pass this news to Qin Zang, because in this way, I would have made a great contribution, but it was passed on to Linjiang County, but it was not half a credit, what did he want?" ”
"But after all, it is related to our net worth and life, we need to be cautious, and you have to tell your brothers later, you must be careful and vigilant, and you must not be careless."
Xu Yuan arched his hand and said, "Yes." ”
