Wei Bo ran out of the camp tent, climbed the flag pavilion, and looked at the water, only to see that from the camp and the open space by the river, there were many people standing densely, and in the front were five trebuchets, throwing stones at Wei Zhong's camp. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info Wei Bo asked his entourage: "Who patrolled last night, why didn't you send a signal?" ”

"The patrolman is dead." The attendant replied.

"It seems that some people didn't take the old man's words to heart yesterday," Wei Bo wrote a black account for some people in his heart, "Did you send someone to Dangyang to deliver a letter?" ”

"It's been sent out." The attendant replied.

Wei Bo asked rhetorically: "Take the official road?" ”

The attendant nodded.

"This person is only afraid of more evil and less auspicious," Wei Bo looked at the thieves and bandits in front of him, "Send a few more people to the north along the trail, and then turn into the official road from Dangyang to Dangyang, and send a letter to Dangyang, so that Shi Duan and them can take precautions." ”

The entourage was puzzled: "Is it too late to report to Dangyang now, won't the thieves attack Dangyang County?" You should be halfway through it at this point, right? ”

Wei Bo shook his head: "The old man estimates that there are three or four thousand thieves on the opposite side, and this is already all the people they can take down the mountain, after all, the thieves still have to leave people to guard the lair, in case someone takes advantage of the fire to rob." Give Wei Zhong a signal and let them protect themselves. ”

Wei Zhong was also standing on the flag pavilion at this moment, watching the trebuchets of the thieves in the distance throw fire oil canisters at his camp, but the number of trebuchets on the other side was small, and the people who operated them were unskilled, and most of the fire oil cans fell outside the fence at first. But as the thieves slowly moved the trebuchet forward, one or two canisters of fire oil were already hitting the fence. Seeing this situation, Wei Zhong couldn't help but sigh: "Is this an official army or a bandit, not only trebuchets, but also fire oil cans, I don't know what else these thieves have prepared?" ”

On the opposite side, several Wugang cars were slowly launched, the cars were full of firewood, and after they were ignited, they were pushed by the thieves and rushed towards the camp, Wei Zhong hurriedly ordered: "Archers, archery, archery." ”

"Aim, put." The prepared archers, under the command of the leader, fired continuously and shot the thief who was pushing the cart, but unfortunately the Wugang cart still rushed forward by inertia and crashed into the fence, although it failed to rush in, but ignited the oil and set fire to the wooden fence.

Mr. Liu was satisfied with this situation, and he said to the kings: "Please send men and prepare to attack." Then he said to his followers: "Order the trebuchet to attack the camp next to it, and not let it hinder our attack." The mountain kings looked at each other again, and the king had to say, "Whoever grabs it belongs to whom, and the one who rushes in first can take one more percent." ”

"Why don't we attack Dangyang County, where it is said that there are only 200 soldiers?" King Ariyama asked.

Mr. Liu sneered: "May I ask the king, which way did you take when you came back from the captivity?" How many people are you going to keep here? If the people in the camp rush out and burn the boat, how will you go back? As long as these three camps are not removed, we must always worry about the way back. Excuse me, who wants to stay here? I immediately led the others to attack Dangyang County, and promised to keep the booty for him. ”

Several mountain kings looked at each other, but no one stepped forward. Mr. Liu snorted coldly again: "Since several of them are unwilling to stay, then they all have to stay, and honestly prepare to attack these three camps, don't get an inch." Let the trebuchet continue to attack. ”

Seeing that the trebuchet began to attack Uncle Wei's camp, Wei Zhong said to his entourage: "The thieves are about to start attacking, you are here to take action, and the old man will go down to command." The entourage wanted to stop him, Wei Zhong said: "The guards here are all Zhuang Ding of the Kong family, if the old man doesn't go down to command, I'm afraid that they will be resentful and refuse to contribute." He patted his entourage on the shoulder, "Don't worry, the old man was also on the battlefield back then, and he will protect himself and will not take risks lightly." ”

Walking down the flag pavilion, Wei Zhong came to the front of the lined up team: "In battle, pay attention to the drums, and enter when you hear the drums, and retreat with gold, as long as the old man does not beat the gong, you must guard it for me." If someone wants to leave now, the old man will be the first to kill him. But when it's time to retreat, the old man will personally bring someone to break the back for you. Now all you have to do is to repel the thieves' attacks and hold the warehouse. ”

The thieves on the opposite side had already begun to attack, and under the leadership of the leader, they trotted towards the camp, and the three rows of thieves in front of them were still carrying shields. Wei Zhong shouted loudly: "Archer, get out of the ranks." "More than a hundred people immediately lined up in three rows, the first row was the archers, the second row was the spearmen, and the third row was the knife men." Archers, on the arrows. Wei Zhong watched the thieves get closer and closer, and when he was thirty steps away from the camp, he shouted, "Release the arrows." The bow and arrow rang out and shot at the thief. The thieves who ran ahead raised their shields, increased their speed, and continued to rush towards the camp.

Although these Zhuang Ding practiced for a long time, they did not go through any battles, let alone killing, they couldn't help but panic, the speed and accuracy of archery were much worse than usual, and the thieves had shield protection, so the casualties were not large. Wei Bo, who was watching the battle from a distance, was slightly disappointed when he saw this situation, and it seemed that he still had to let these Zhuang Ding see blood. After three arrows, the thief had already approached the fence, and Wei Zhong said, "The spearman stepped forward." The spearmen stepped forward, and in the face of the gap, the swordsmen stood still, holding their swords, while the archers retreated behind the swordsmen, discarding their bows and arrows, drawing their sabers, and waiting solemnly. Looking at the bandits coming towards the gap in the fence, a spearman suddenly turned around and tried to escape, but was killed by a knife soldier standing behind. The bandits ran too fast, and most of the first two rows fell into the ditch behind the fence, causing the bandits to panic. The bandits behind jumped hard, but they were stabbed by the gunmen. But there were more and more bandits rushing in, and the spearmen gradually retreated, Wei Zhong shouted: "Go up with the old man", and led the sword soldiers to rush up, so that the spearmen and the bandits could disengage from each other, so that they could repair and fight again.

Uncle Wei in the nearby camp commanded the archers to support Wei Zhong with strong crossbows and shoot those bandits who were close to his camp, so the bandits who attacked Wei Zhong had to divide their troops to attack Uncle Wei's side. Uncle Wei instructed his entourage: "Tell you to go down, bring your weapons, get ready, as long as the camp on the opposite side gives a signal, immediately attack and cut off the thief." ”

"Those weapons and food are left for each other?"

"These bandits are not subordinate to each other, they are all preserving their strength, and they are unwilling to sacrifice themselves to fulfill others, otherwise the camp of the second brother would have been defeated long ago. If these bandits see that they can get food and weapons without bloodshed, they will not embarrass us. ”

Wei Bo also said to his entourage: "Let the archers prepare, and once the camp in front begins to retreat here, if the bandits are pursuing, shoot arrows immediately to delay the bandits' movements." ”
