Chapter 204: A Trick to Capture a Thief

After Wang Zong was defeated, he returned to the front of the camp with a sad look: "Father-in-law, this robber's marksmanship is really powerful, and the little son-in-law is really difficult to defeat him, who else can beat him?" The father and son suddenly became a little helpless. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

Xu Gang was arranged by Chen Shu to the rear army, listened to the battle report from the front, and heard that the robbers had defeated the general's son and son-in-law, which was very rampant, and annoyed Xu Gang's temperament, only to see him say angrily: "How can this be reasonable!" A robber is still dominated by him in the mountain pass, blocking the route of our army, and there is no one in the entire vanguard army to retreat, what else to talk about going to Yongzhou to quell the chaos? ”

He was indignant in his heart, so he walked into his camp, took the Kunwu long sword, took the overlord divine bow, and called Chen Shu in front of him, shouting: "General, Xu Gang asks for battle, and guarantees that the thief can be captured." ”

Chen Shu had heard a little about Xu Gang, thinking that you are a civil official, even if you have practiced fist and foot kung fu, how can you be a thief's opponent, I saw him wave his hand, shook his head and said: "Xu Zhuangyuan, why are you here, isn't it good to stay in the rear army?" With the credit, General Ben will share it with you. The little general can't win yet, let alone you are a literati? ”

Xu Gang frowned slightly, and continued: "General, the last general is invited to fight!" Please allow the general to fight! ”

Chen Shu's face was slightly unhappy, and when he was about to continue to reject him, Wang Zong whispered in his ear: "Father-in-law, anyway, there is no good plan now, since this champion wants to go up and try it, why do you want to stop his heart to serve the country?" ”

Wang Zong's voice was a little yin and yang, obviously he was not very interested in Xu Gang, maybe this was also the reason why the literary and military officials of this dynasty were born to be incompatible! Chen Shu listened to his son-in-law's words, nodded, and said to Xu Gang: "Then you be careful!" ”

Xu Gang hugged his fists and saluted, and walked towards Li Da, he walked to the middle of the field, and drew his long sword with a brush, and shouted: "Hey! Dog robbers! This is the official road of the imperial court, that is, merchants passing by, and you should not block the road, and ask for any money to buy the road. What's more, we are ordered to march south, and now we are the pioneers of the road, and the soldiers and horses of the imperial court have passed through this mountain, and you don't want to avoid it, and dare to block the way to this mountain. Since it hit me in my hand, quickly dismount and sacrifice my long sword! ”

Li Da said: "Bah! Do you think you are a copper-clad and a gall-iron neck? There are only two young generals, and they were beaten by Lao Tzu to vomit blood and come back, who are you? Isn't it impatient to live? Look at the guns! With that, he urged the horse to rush over, and looked at Xu Gang with a shot to stop him and stab him.

Xu Gang's eyes closed and he shouted: "Good come!" Then he swung his long sword violently and slammed it upward, and suddenly a strong force passed to Li Da's hand, and he was so shocked that he shouted: "Oh no! Then the hand was loosened, and the gun went into the middle of the day, and the man shook his horse.

Xu Gang took a step on the ground, held a sword in his right hand, grabbed Li Da's leg with his left hand, and said with a smile: "Come here." Then Xu Gang dragged back violently, and Li Da was top-heavy and fell backwards.

Li Da's face changed greatly, and he couldn't stop struggling with his hands, Xu Gang said while dragging his feet: "I think you can still earn it?" As soon as his voice was thin, he strangled Li Da and squeezed it, so that Li Da's hands and feet couldn't move.

Xu Gang led his horse again, turned around and walked back to the front of the camp and said, "General, the last general has captured Li Da alive here." ”

When Chen Shu saw it, he was full of joy, but he was making his own calculations in his heart: "This Xu Gang is actually so good, my son is not as good as him, even the virtuous son-in-law is not worth one-tenth of him, take a closer look, my virtuous son-in-law and his body are not much different, and he wears his head back and forth, if you let the virtuous son-in-law take his credit, wouldn't it be a great creation?" ”

Chen Shu had the intention to take the risk, so he asked Xu Gang to put down Li Da, and Wang Zong came to tie Li Da, but who expected Xu Gang to use it too violently, and after Li Da was placed on the ground, he couldn't move, and he was already dead.

Xu Gang's face was a little embarrassed, thinking that he was angry, he forgot to stop, and actually strangled the thief to death, so he lowered his head slightly and said: "General, the thief was caught to death by the general." ”

Chen Shu's son and son-in-law stretched out their tongues one after another, their eyes were full of jealousy, and they said in unison: "Good swordsmanship, good strength!" ”

Chen Shu didn't look at the corpse on the ground, only looked at Xu Gang and said: "Xu Gang, I didn't expect your ability to be so strong, it is your credit to capture Li Da alive, and I will record it in the credit book." ”

Xu Gang was overjoyed when he heard this, and hurriedly hugged his fists and replied: "Yes, thank you General, the thief likes this white horse very much, can you reward the general?" ”

Chen Shu cast an appreciative look, nodded, and then said: "Since the thief has been captured by you, the horse armor is yours, so don't ask me." Take it yourself. ”

Xu Gang was secretly happy, although he didn't know much about horses, he faintly felt that Li Dabao was extraordinary, so he wanted it, but he didn't want Chen Shu to give him everything! So he hurriedly took off Li Da's armor, left the corpse aside, obtained the silver helmet and silver armor, and rode a white horse.

Back in the camp, Yang Wenguang and Yang Huaiyu were overjoyed, only to hear Yang Huaiyu arch his hand and say: "General Xu, you have made a contribution in the first battle and won a pair of armor, brother, I don't know when I will be able to see the merit." ”

Xu Gang laughed, gave the armor to Yang Huaiyu, and said, "Don't panic, when you arrive in Yongzhou, you will have a lot of credit, and you are indispensable." ”

Chen Shu wanted to kill them all, but he followed the advice of his son-in-law Wang Zong, and arranged the bandits into the forward camp, and let them go first when attacking the pass.

In the meantime, Chen Shu ordered the camp to be set up, and 50,000 horses passed through the mountain, and traveled forty or fifty miles of remote and dangerous roads.

Chen Shu's face was as pale as earth, and the horse stood still, and said, "My son, why is it so loud? ”

Chen Zhifei was also so frightened that his face was bloodless, and he trembled and said, "Daddy, I also think it's strange, but I don't know what the noise is." ”

So Chen Shu sent someone to inquire, and came back after a while, and reported back: "General Qiqi, there is less than a stone's throw in front of you, and it is a valley, so you just dropped a boulder and smashed a big hole in the ground, and the hole was dark and I don't know the depth. ”

Chen Shu was shocked when he heard this: "You have encountered such trouble? Command that the men and horses be stopped, and my son, and my son-in-law, go and see with my father. ”

Chen Shu, father and son, brought their guards and soldiers, urged them to step forward, and sure enough, they found that there was a big cave like a well in the valley, and a huge stone was faintly visible in the cave, Chen Shu muttered: "It's so strange! With that, he ordered his men to throw the rope down and explore how deep it was.

Several soldiers tied a boulder to the rope and fell to the bottom of the cave, until they couldn't put it down, they picked it up, and after measuring it, they replied: "General, the boulder is stuck above the hole, but there are still more than 20 zhang deep under the boulder." ”

Chen Shu looked at the sky and said lightly: "What does it mean to drop a boulder out of thin air and smash open the crypt, and there is still space under the cave?" What about the bad luck? Don't...... or if there is any treasure in the ground, it is not known, but send a man to find out what is underneath. (To be continued.) )
