Chapter 355: Want to Ambush?

The battle ended in a short time, and there were ten Liukou sentinels, and eight people were killed or wounded in a moment, but Jieyifeng and them did not suffer any casualties, and the combat effectiveness between them was too different. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Only the white felt hat has some strength, but he is a department commander in Li Zicheng's old camp, who has fought with Li Zicheng and others for many years, but died under an inconspicuous handcuff. Several of the rogue sentinels who were hit by the firearms were either killed on the spot or died soon after. A few people who were hit by the arrow lay on the ground and groaned, and after Jieyifeng and others cleaned up the battlefield, they gave them a good time.

In this battle, two prisoners were captured, twelve horses and mules, a number of weapons, bows and arrows, and some silver and treasures. However, among the ten rogue sentinels, there was nothing worth collecting. This time he went out to suppress the rogues, Wang Dou said first, and did not register military merits at the first level, so the heads of these rogues were not interested.

They quickly cleaned up the battlefield, took the captives with them, tied the two rogues to their horses, stuffed rags on their mouths, and left quietly. Leaving some corpses scattered and left in the cold wind, the blood slowly coagulated, making the smell of blood a lot lighter.

"Listening to the accent of the military master, we are also from Henan? I don't know if it's Henan Mansion, Kaifeng Mansion, or Runing Mansion? ”

After Jie Yifeng and the others galloped for more than ten miles, they came to a hillside to interrogate the two captured prisoners. They simply told everything they knew, like pouring beans.

These two people, one is from Lushan in Ruzhou, and the other is from Lu, Henan Province, and they have not long joined the peasant army. Because they had practiced boxing and kicking before, and they also knew how to ride horses, they had a good status in Li Zicheng's peasant army and existed as a horse army. This time, he went out to sentry with the old battalion's horsemen, but he didn't expect to encounter Jie Yifeng and others, and the whole army was wiped out.

The interrogators of these two people are "Big Girl" and "Second Girl", in fact, they are also from Henan, with similar accents and understanding of the situation, it is most appropriate for them to interrogate these two captives. During their interrogation, Jie Yifeng and others were patrolling the side, especially Jie Yifeng, holding a clairvoyant mirror in his hand, just looking around.

The terrain here is good, the scenery on all sides is unobstructed, especially the phoenix clairvoyant mirror is in hand, and any movement around can be known for the first time.

Through interrogation, the "eldest girl" and "second girl" have obtained detailed information that the Liukou is indeed preparing to ambush the Shunxiang army near Ruzhou.

In fact, as early as when the Shunxiang army and Chen Yongfu's troops left Kaifeng, Li Guo, Liu Fangliang, Hao Shaoqi and others in Ruzhou had already received the news. Perhaps the intelligence of the Shunxiang Army is well protected, but the officers and soldiers of Kaifeng City are protected like big holes in all sides, and they can't stop the spying of these rogues at all.

Therefore, Li Guo and Liu Fangliang, who were besieging Ruzhou, made an ambush plan early. It was a small force of men and horses, and then more than 10,000 infantry troops were ambushed in the area of Xiaotunzhai, and nearly 3,000 "cavalry" were ambushed in Shenwu Mountain.

They were divided into several steps, small groups first lured the enemy, and then threw gold and silver along the way, if the officers and soldiers were in a fierce pursuit after the plan, or the competition for gold and silver was in chaos, more than 10,000 infantry troops suddenly besieged in groups, according to experience, at this time the officers and soldiers were always defeated.

However, Li Guo and Liu Fangliang were cautious, and also set a second step, if the more than 10,000 infantry troops could not be perfectly ambushed, and the officers and soldiers continued to pursue after being defeated, the 3,000 cavalry would play a decisive force.

According to their experience, as long as the officers and men are frustrated at the front, the morale of the follow-up main force will be greatly lost, and the current relief of the siege of Ruzhou will certainly become an empty talk.

The thief was so treacherous that Jie Yifeng and the others next to him took a breath of cold air, and the "eldest girl" and "second girl" who were in charge of interrogation exchanged glances while quickly recording them.

Among the two rogues captives, one was familiar, and he was a little familiar with the accents of "Big Girl" and "Second Girl", so he asked tentatively. …,

"It's a person from Zhangde Mansion."

"Big girl" said lightly, looking at the "self-cooked" while gobbling up her own fried noodles, while praising vaguely, Liandao This dry food tastes really good, and the rough food that is better than the one you gnaw is really one in the sky and the other in the ground.

The two captives cooperated so much, telling everything they knew, and there was no sign of escape, and the eldest girl was much gentler towards them, not only changing the binding position, but also giving them dry food and water.

"Zhangde Mansion? Exceptional"

"Self-cooked" fussed: "The little one went there once when he was a teenager, and the roast chicken and hemp candy over there are really a must, and now the little one can't forget it." ”

He smiled sheepishly: "It's really a township, you said that the world is not big, and you meet fellow villagers everywhere." ”

"Where are you?"

"Big girl" silently smoked her pipe and asked a word of self-cooking.

"The small one is Lushan's, and he broke into the king a few months ago...... No, the thieves broke through Lushan, and everything in the city was robbed, and in order to survive, the villain had to be a thief. The villain also practiced riding, so he joined the thief army, and he was also reused and incorporated into the horse team. ”

"A few months ago...... You've been fighting a lot of battles so far, right? Quite a few words"

"That is, Jiaxian, Yiyang, Baoshan, Yiyang, Lushi, Yongning, the small ones all participated in the attack, but looking at the mighty appearance of the military masters, those thieves are absolutely incomparable."

"Big girl" was silent for a while, and said lightly: "Have you ever killed someone?" Officers and soldiers, or ordinary people. ”

Zilai was stunned for a moment, and looked carefully at the face of the "big girl", but he was expressionless, just silently smoking his pipe.

Zilai Shu smiled again: "To be honest, I have really killed, officers and soldiers, women and children, have all been killed." Alas, this murder will be addictive, the rich woman comes so easily, think about the past, digging in the soil, now it is to give me the field, and I can't settle down. ”

He said: "Not only me, but also those men among the thieves, Ding Zhuang, are afraid and refuse to settle down." To tell the truth, being a thief is more comfortable than being a citizen, in the past, those high-ranking officials and big families, official ladies, refused to look at the small ones, broke the city, but they had to obediently kneel at the feet of the small, let them go east, they didn't dare to go west, hehe......"

Zilai Shu cracked his mouth, as if he was reminiscing about the "happy" life of the past, he secretly glanced around, and quietly said to the eldest girl: "Why don't the eldest brother follow me as a thief, they are all fellow countrymen, with your skills, I will help you introduce you, and you will definitely be in charge of hundreds of people, which is like being a small soldier now." ”

The "big girl" was still expressionless, took off her pipe and put it away, took out the two handcuffs, and silently loaded the ammunition.

Zilai Shu had nothing to say: "Big brother, what kind of firearm are you?" It's amazing, I've never seen it among the thieves. ”

The eldest girl did not answer, he filled the gunpowder, stood up silently, and looked down the hillside, this beautiful place in the past is now a depression. He pondered for a long time, then turned around and aimed a handcuff at his familiar body.

Zilai was stunned: "Big brother, who are you?" ”

With a bang, a flash of fire came out of the big girl's handcuff, and he stumbled and fell backwards, his body rolled a few times, and when his body stopped on the ground, his eyes were wide open, and he was already angry.

The "Erya" next to him who collected the information was stunned for a moment and shouted, "Brother......"

Jie Yifeng and others were alarmed, and they all looked at the "big girl".

After the "big girl" killed the "self-cooked", she took another handcuff in her hand and aimed it at the remaining rogue captive.

The one quickly knelt on the ground, prostrated desperately and begged, shouting again and again: "Don't kill me, don't kill me......"

A sadness flashed in the eyes of the "big girl", and said: "Brother, in the next life, live in a peaceful and prosperous world, and don't be a thief." ”…,

A flash of fire erupted, and he pulled the trigger.

……

In the afternoon of the same day, Changxizhuang, which was close to the boundary of Ruzhou.

The official road here is not far from Rushui, the four sides are empty, and the fields of Zhuangzi in the past have been abandoned, although this area is convenient for farming near the river. However, under the perennial sweep of soldiers and thieves, the Zhuangzi village in the land of the river is often the object of their plunder, in order to avoid all kinds of bandits, these Zhuangzi near the river, in fact, most of the villagers hide in the mountains.

Although the mountains and wilderness are much more difficult than the river areas, they can survive to some extent.

Some small snowflakes falling from time to time in the sky could not change the dryness of the yellow earth in the slightest, and when people and horses walked casually, there was a large patch of dust. Therefore, with the sound of thunderous horses' hooves, the smoke and dust of the official road in the distance seemed to be overwhelming, and with the rising smoke and dust, a large area of black and oppressive cavalry rushed towards the area of Changxizhuang.

These cavalry marched in a very orderly procession, five horses in a column, ten paces apart from each other, two paces from the left and right, and twenty-five paces apart. The knights on the horses wore eight-petal hats and iron-tipped helmets, the sergeants in iron-clad armor carried bird guns, and the iron-clad sergeants had spears inserted in their saddle covers.

With the agitation of the cold wind, the iron helmets of each person, as well as the bright red cloak, flew with the horses hunting, and the armor of each person was painted with red paint, a dazzling fiery red color.

At the front of the cavalry, a big banner with the word king was particularly eye-catching, and nearly a thousand cavalry were rolling forward, each face was full of sharpness, and an indescribable fierce spirit stretched out.

"Stop Moving"

When he rushed to Changxizhuang, an order came out of the banner of the king, and then the shrill horn of the Chinese army trumpeter sounded. Hearing this voice, the sound of shouting orders one after another sounded, from the thousand general to the general, to the general officer, the team officer to the captain, soon the transmission was completed, and the cavalry that was rolling and marching immediately stopped.

"The Sentinel Has a Report"

Rolling a few horses rushed over, ran to the banner of Wang Zida to report a few words, and Gao Shiyin, who was under it, touched his face full of horizontal meat, and said: "There is always an emergency military situation if you don't collect thousands at night?" ”

He said: "The order is to go down, and the whole army will dismount and rest for a quarter of an hour. ”

A gong sounded, and the whole army dismounted, sat on the ground to rest, drank water and ate dry food.

However, the Shunxiang army was strictly disciplined, but no one made a noise. Over the years in the army, abiding by the regulations has penetrated into the marrow of every Shunxiang army soldier, and it is a reckless person like Gao Shiyin who now relies on the regulations to fight.

Moreover, the sergeants under his command, especially those veterans who have been in the army for nine years of Chongzhen, or even seven years of Chongzhen, are all literate, and in terms of literacy, they are afraid that they are close to the level of Xiucai. Gao Shiyin and other officers who were the most reluctant to read also knew hundreds, thousands of words, and it was not a problem to write documents by themselves.

At this time, gathered beside Gao Shiyin, there were also the town officials, comfort officers, and some staff officers in the Qian Headquarters. When the Shunxiang Army marched in a leading formation, the personnel of these thousands of headquarters were also behind Gao Shiyin.

Only the quartermaster led some of the muskets, but they were behind the army in their baggage wagons, but their wagons were not too far behind most of them, at most a hundred paces.

Soon after, Jie Yifeng appeared in the sight of Gao Shiyin and others under the leadership of the internal sentry cavalry of Gao Shiyin's Ministry for five nights, and they captured a lot, nearly thirty horses galloped, arousing a lot of momentum.

Each cavalry department and infantry army department of the Shunxiang Army, although there is a team of people in each of them as sentinels, as the vanguard of the army. However, of course, they are amateur sentry sentries who can't be compared with the sentry horses who don't collect thousands of professional sentries at night, and it must be very important for them to bring back emergency military information.

Soon, the five people of Jieyifeng came to Gao Shiyin's body, presented the information they had found after giving a gift, explained it in detail, and left a copy, and then they got on their horses and ran back to Jiaxian. …,

"These thieves are so bold that they want to ambush my forwards?"

Gao Shiyin shouted angrily, and one of the praise paintings of the Thousand Headquarters took a refined oilskin ring cylinder, took out a map from inside, and spread it on a mound of earth. Subsequently, the generals of the army, as well as the commanders of the ministry, such as the pacification, comfort, and quartermaster, surrounded Gao Shiyin, looking at the map and discussing the matter.

The pacification officer, the consolation officer and others have the right to express their own remarks and suggestions, but the military execution of a department is presided over by a minister, Gao Shiyin. And this map was also received from the battalion headquarters when Gao Shiyin sent out the troops.

Wen Daxing's night does not collect thousands of people than the Shunxiang army arrived in Jiaxian County many days earlier, and the night does not collect in his department, and the terrain from Ruzhou to Jiaxian County has been surveyed and drawn a number of maps.

"According to the unveiling officer who did not collect thousands of troops at night, the thieves set up ambushes in the small tunzhai near Ruzhou, first with a small bait, and then besieged with a large part, and they were very vicious. Xiaotunzhai is less than twenty miles away from our army, and we need to make a decision as soon as possible. ”

The speaker was a praise painting from the Thousand Headquarters, but he was also a soldier and had the title of general. Most of the staff officers of the Shunxiang Army were from military backgrounds, and officers and sergeants who were more literate and resourceful in each department were selected to serve as praise paintings.

The high literacy rate in the Shunxiang army makes the praise and painting of each department to the warriors, although there are many literati, but they are more responsible for copying and writing paperwork, because they are difficult to understand military affairs, and the high-level war style of the Shunxiang army is not suitable for them for a while, so it is generally difficult for these literati to ascend to the elegant hall and be reused in the army.

"According to the intelligence, there are as many as 10,000 thieves in ambush, can you suspend the march and ask General Dingguo for help?"

"Pause a fart"

Gao Shiyin shouted angrily.

When the war starts, it is the role of the vanguard to test the enemy's situation and disrupt it, so the general army has a striker. There is no striker, just as a sword without a tip is not lethal. Only with elite strikers can they be invincible.

Gao Shiyin was appointed as a striker, it was when he was full of ambition, how could he back down? What about the rogue ambush? Let them taste what it is like to set up an ambush and be killed.
