711 It's Time

A bunch of people on the opposite side were clamoring, standing in a mess, talking about the queue, far inferior to Lao Hu and others, but they also had an advantage, that is, there were more than 400 people with horses, and many people could shoot arrows immediately off the horse, no wonder they were so arrogant. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

Moreover, after the defeat of the Ming army in Zhu Xianzhen, there were many routs under Zuo Liangyu, Yang Dezheng, Fang Guoan and others, and they stayed in the people, and they became bandits and thieves.

Especially for those who originally had horses, the harm was even more violent, and often a few horsemen could sweep away hundreds of people.

This shot broke the sky and was once a subordinate of Fang Guoan, and when he was defeated, there were dozens of people around him, and everyone had horses.

So far, they have more than 400 horses, which is a big force in Kaifeng Prefecture, and even the officers and soldiers of the Fucheng have to treat them differently.

Whenever there is a war or troubled times, women and children are the first victims, after they are caught or coerced, they are either humiliated, or killed or eaten, and they are one of the villains, and countless women are tortured to death by them.

However, now the "business" is very important, whether it is to break the sky or other forces, they will try their best to keep the "goods" intact and intact, and on the eve of transportation, they will even surprise to supplement their business, so that they will look better and sell them at a good price.

Since last year, the "business" of abducting and selling women and children has been popular in Kaifeng Prefecture, which has been continuously transported across the Yellow River, and then exchanged for a large amount of grain and cloth from the Sanjin Commercial Bank. Iron tools, and even munitions for everyone's needs.

Women and children who were worthless in the past are now worth a lot of money, especially healthy and intact.

Kaifeng Fucheng has now become an important "business distribution center", even the governor Hou Sui arrived in Kaifeng, have joined the ranks of "doing business", now the city women are gradually few, children are rare, continue to collect. All shipped to Xuanfu and Monan.

Shoot the sky is very keen on doing "business". Now in their village, in addition to the twelve village owners who still have wives and women, the rest of the subordinates have wives and daughters and children, and all of them are sold. Even Shot Potian and others are considering whether to sell their wives and daughters.

Anyway, depending on who they are. How can you worry about whether there is a pressure on Mrs. Zhai? I'm just tired of playing. Replace a group of women.

"Leave the little lady."

The minions on the opposite side roared in unison, and they knew that the "Mountain Patrol Army" was inside and outside the old nest fortress. Many soldiers have women, and this time they fought with the Wei family's "Breaking into the Sky", and even captured many women and children.

If these women and children are snatched, their own people may be able to get one or two, and they will be sold after ten days and a half months, so why not?

They clamored loudly, although there were many old and weak in the crowd, many of whom did not have a spear and only wielded sticks or hoes, after all, there were many people, and the momentum was not small.

……

"Damn, it's on Lao Tzu's head."

Lao Hu roared angrily, he had been the leader for many months, he had also raised his majesty, and the "Mountain Patrol Army" personnel behind him were also full of righteous indignation.

Kong San and Huang Weijie also watched intently, they are the elite of the intelligence department, they have been trained in all aspects, and their military knowledge is just one of them, and when they see that the other party is just a rabble, it is easy to beat their foot soldiers, but the difficult thing is that the opponent's horsemen are not easy to deal with.

They quickly discussed and arranged the troops, and Huang Weijie led hundreds of foot soldiers as the rear formation to cover the baggage, women and children. Kong San went to the front to personally command, the two teams of bird soldiers, as well as a team of archers, two teams of sword and shield soldiers, a total of 250 people as the elite of the front formation, and the rest of the spearmen lined up in several rows.

Finally, Lao Hu's horse team was in a relatively neat military formation.

After nearly half a year of training, most of the three subordinates who were originally hungry and homeless were also decent, at least they lined up neatly when they were fighting, and they knew how to fight in formation, so every time they encountered a rabble, they only knew that there was a swarm of bandits and horse thieves rushing forward, and they were invincible.

Of course, they are not a regular army after all, and they don't understand any other flags and drums except for the signal of Mingjin to withdraw the troops, so they basically rely on roaring to fight, and now they also need Kong Sanju to command.

"Hachijo, protect Master Hu, do you know?"

Before going to the front, Kong San ordered the horse team to be a personal general, but it was a young man with a fierce expression who rode a fat black horse.

His real name is unexaminable, he used to be a horse thief, there were not many evil deeds, and he was good at carrying a thick saber, and he would also open a bow left and right, and he was once saved by Kong San, and since then he has been loyal to him, and after investigation at the beginning of the year, he has also developed into a peripheral member of the Ministry of Intelligence.

He led the team of fifty personal soldiers and horses, which was the common escort of the three village owners.

"Don't worry, the villain will definitely protect the big villager!"

Hachijo looked at the other side with a smirk, a blood-devouring glint flashing in his eyes.

"Don't worry about Lao Tzu, on the contrary, Master Confucius, you should be more careful ahead."

Lao Hu waved his hand indifferently, although he was forcibly pulled to Henan by Kong San and Huang Weijie, full of reluctance, but after a few months, he deeply liked this kind of life of licking blood on the knife edge, which was too exciting.

And in the past, he was just a small soldier, despised and disdained, but now thousands of people in the whole village looked at his face, which was too beautiful. When he fought by himself, he rushed to the front, and the brothers in the rear roared and followed, this feeling was too exciting.

Perhaps, this is the ideal life in my heart.

He seems to be involved in the role, and only when he dreams back at midnight will he think of his mother, his unborn child, and his life in Xuanfu Town.

And in the past few months, he has been more or less in a relationship with Kong San and others, and when he speaks at this time, he can't help but have concern in his tone.

Kong San nodded, quickly led a few guards to the front, and shouted: "The brave are rewarded, the cowardly are killed, there is no retreat, kill all the thieves on the opposite side!" Mountain Patrol Army, Forward! ā€

The whole army roared together, and those who cultivated and planted the villagers, the villagers were different, they patrolled the mountains to suppress bandits, and "collect protection money" for a living, there were always several times a month to go out to fight, and there were many people killed in the battle, and the village was up and down. There is quite a fierce atmosphere.

And after each war, the three village owners can also reward those who have merit, and those who retreat are beheaded, which is quite morale-boosting, and it is a quasi-military group, not an idle bandit.

They roared rhythmically, stepping on the dry loess earth, and at this time the sword and shield soldiers were in front, and the spearmen were behind, and the shields were densely covered. A sharp spear tip. Just sticking out of the gap, it looks like a huge turtle array.

……

The Shooting Heaven and the others on this side gasped, and the Shooting Heaven was a middle-aged man with a scar on his face, and he muttered: "This Ground-Stepping Dragon's soldiers and horses are very powerful." From which battalion? ā€

But he wasn't overly worried. After all, there are many soldiers on your side. He shouted: "Beat the drums, and the whole army charges!" ā€

Immediately, the drummer next to him beat the big drum.

There are only two flags and drums of the subordinates who shoot through the sky, and one is to advance. One is Mingjin's troops, no matter how complicated it is, his subordinates won't understand. In fact, he didn't understand how to shoot through the sky, because he used to be in Fang Guoan Town, and he was also a swarm of bees when he fought.

"Kill!"

Together, thousands of minions howled together, except for the horsemen, who did not move, the rest of them danced all kinds of weapons and rushed towards Lao Hu's side.

They were in a mess, there was nothing to fight for, and some of the people in front of them were holding shields, some were not, and they were indeed a rabble.

However, relying on the large number of people, many surrounding forces were overturned by shooting through the sky before, after all, at this time, the combat army rarely talked about the array, let alone the civilian bandit force.

The mountain patrol stopped early, and under Kong San's order, two teams of bird-gunned soldiers and the team of archers went out to fight, and quickly came to the front of the queue.

They stood in two rows of birds, the archers in a row, and behind them were sword and shield men, and their spears still peeking out of the gaps between the shields.

"Light the arquebus, the front row of firecrackers crouch down ......"

Kong San calmly ordered that the bird guns of the mountain patrol army, because of the different calibers of the bird guns used, did not use fixed paper tube ammunition, but Huang Weijie was responsible for logistics, and it was impossible to have the idea of fixed equipment.

He let the sergeants use bamboo pipes and copper pipes, each tube according to their own firecracker situation, gunpowder ration, and also fire door primer and propellant separately, each soldier also has a lead bag full of projectiles, after training for a long time, everyone can also use it proficiently.

Of course, gunpowder is also expensive for the mountain patrol army, and they usually train in peacetime, practice more empty guns, or use sand and soil for practice.

Immediately, the people in charge of lighting the fire in each team quickly lit their fire ropes for each soldier with a fire pot, and the mountain patrol army could not be compared with the Jingbian army, and each soldier had a fire fold.

Then the gunners in front squatted down neatly with a bang, and the gunners in the rear were aiming with guns, while watching the fire and paying attention to the primer, for fear that the wind would suddenly blow the primer away.

Of course, it is impossible for their bird guns to have a self-closing fire door device, and in windy weather, there are often cases where the fire guns are dumb.

The soldiers and horses that shot through the sky, thousands of people were still howling and rushing, and the people in front of them also saw the bird gun team on the side of the mountain patrol army, and they were not very worried.

However, the quality of firearms made by the government is too poor, not to mention that they are easy to explode, and many firearms often fail to fire when they are in battle, and even if the opponent has a bird gun or a three-eyed gun during a general firefight, these thousands of people rush away, they often can't hold their breath and fire indiscriminately before they reach the firing range.

Therefore, even if they saw the bird team of the mountain patrol army, the howling people continued to howl, and at most some people subconsciously blocked their shields in front of them.

"No orders, no firearms, violators of orders will be killed!"

Kong San calmly looked at the crowd rushing towards the black pressure on the opposite side, and the guards beside him also repeated his orders over and over again. The soldiers in the second row were also focused on aiming, but the beads of sweat came down, and no one wiped them, and the military discipline of the mountain patrol army was very strict, and they were beheaded when they said they were beheaded.

"Put!"

Looking at the people in front of him, he rushed into a hundred, eighty, and seventy steps, and Kong San finally roared.

The sound of a salvo of bird's guns erupted with scorching firelight, followed by thick white smoke.

Fifty shots of birds, except for about ten shots that did not hit, the rest of them all spewed out large puffs of white smoke, and blood mist rose from the bodies of nearly twenty people who shot through the sky, and some people's shields were shattered, and then the bullets hit their bodies behind them, and they screamed and rolled to the ground.

"The second row is back, the first row, up!"

"Put!"

It was the sound of the gun again, and this time more people fell to the ground, and then those who were shot rolled on the ground and screamed. Not to mention that none of these people have armor. Even if they have armor, it is difficult to block the power of the guns at close range, after all, although these bird guns cannot be compared with the Jingbian Army bird guns, they are also relatively sophisticated and powerful.

Moreover, many of the dead and wounded were still the braver people in the crowd, and seeing their miserable howling and painful appearance, many people around them immediately lost all their courage.

After the two rows of musketeers finished firing, they immediately retreated and returned to the formation. A piece of the sound of a cane brushing. Nervously, he refilled his lead pellet gunpowder.

"Bow and arrow, shoot!"

"Whoosh Whoosh ......"

There was another rain of arrows, and in the sound of arrows breaking through the air, some people who shot through the sky were shot over. Especially those who don't have a shield.

Although the bow and arrow are not as powerful as the bird's gun. But it's fast. In just a short distance, some people have already shot several arrows.

And after the fierce blows of the birds' guns and bows and arrows, those who shot through the sky screamed in horror. Most of the people had lost their courage, and they were either looking left and right, or crowding to flee to the rear.

Then the chaotic crowd crowded to the front of the patrol army.

"Thorn!"

The shields of the sword and shield soldiers were erected, and then in the gap between their shields, dense spears were swallowed and pierced.

Every time their spears stretched and contracted, a mist of blood was raised, and a terrible howl rang out, and these spears stabbed indiscriminately, or stabbed in front of them to shoot into the faces of the celestials, or in the throat, or in the chest, or in the lower abdomen, waist, and eyes.

When they were stabbed with spears, they either fell to the ground trembling or shouted hoarsely, and if their internal organs were punctured, they rolled on the ground in pain, and they wished to die on the spot.

Most of these people who shoot the sky are either hungry or homeless, and they usually rely on the large number of people to fight against the wind, how have they ever seen such a vicious formation, such a tragic situation? Watching the blood rush and the miserable howls around them one after another, they collapsed, howling and fleeing only to the left and right rear.

And some of the habitual bandits, or the tougher ones, were either first killed by the arrows of the birds, or now they are dead under the spears. The courage of the horseman, in the face of a neat military formation, is so powerless, even if the mountain patrol army is such a half-toned military formation.

……

Seeing that the infantry of his own side was defeated by the mountain patrol army, and his face was blue when he shot through the sky, he thought to himself: "In the end, we have to rely on our own horse team!" ā€

He shouted: "Brothers, you can't fall into the name of our Heaven Breaking Camp, just follow me!" ā€

His horse team of more than 400 people, all of them are habitual bandits, their hands are stained with blood, they are accustomed to seeing life and death, they heard the order of the lord of the village, they all shouted angrily, their horse hooves stirred up huge dust, and rushed towards the flank of the mountain patrol army.

Seeing hundreds of horsemen coming on the opposite side, their horses' hooves vibrated and hit the ground, and the momentum was not small, Lao Hu laughed: "It's finally Lao Tzu's turn, brothers, all rush with me!" ā€

His horsemen roared in unison, drawing their swords.

Moreover, the horse team of the mountain patrol army also pays attention to the queue, especially the personal guards of the team, and they usually need to cooperate.

At this time, they were in a row of ten, divided into five rows, all horses to horses, and the first two rows also used spears, like the walls of the feathered cavalry. The rest of the horsemen were all in the rear, and some were scattered on the left and right, although the number of people was slightly inferior to the side of the sky, and the majesty was far exceeded.

"Kill!"

Lao Hu roared, taking the lead, and the horse team of the mountain patrol army also roared and rushed out together......

……

"Hahahaha, fight with Lao Tzu, the surname Qian is looking for the wrong person!"

When riding back, Lao Hu was triumphant, and the result was not unexpected, and the stragglers who shot through the sky faced Lao Hu's horse team, and were defeated, killing and wounding more than 50 people on the spot, and more than 100 horsemen surrendered.

Shot through the sky and abandoned the baggage, took the remnants of the horse team, and fled back to the lair in a gray manner, and the foot soldiers who ran away didn't care about it, so that Lao Hu surrendered more than 500 people.

After the return of the great victory, the whole army was jubilant, and when he heard his words, it was a howl of "the mighty lord of the village", which made Lao Hu even more happy, looking left and right, and full of spirit.

Of course, Lao Hu hung up again, and was slashed on his left arm, but fortunately he didn't hurt the bones, and he didn't care.

Kong San and Huang Weijie cared for a few words, and when they saw that he was fine, they were also relieved. Frequent battles, hanging lottery is inevitable, that is, the two, in the past few months, there are countless wounds of all sizes, and they have long been used to it.

"The king asked me to patrol the mountains......"

The loud "military song" sounded again, and everyone in the mountain patrol army rushed to their fortress with the spoils of war and joy.

Their village is called Da'an Village, located between the vortex and the Zaolin River, the surrounding land is flat and fertile, and the irrigation is also convenient, which is a very good land.

However, in the current world, the land is not fertile, and the irrigation is inconvenient, so there is no point, because few people dare to settle down to farm.

After all, there are many bandits around, the homeless and hungry people are endless, you have planted the field, and when you are about to harvest, they will come to loot, and the people who come are more powerful than the other, and the people and horses are more than the other, who dares to guarantee that they will be able to keep the money, grain and property?

This is also the sorrow of troubled times, and it is impossible to farm with peace of mind.

It's not that there is no lesson, the predecessor of Da'an Village is a force, the owner of the village recruited homeless people to cultivate, and it is quite famous in the local area, but in July last year, it was broken by a group of homeless people, the granary was looted, and the remnants of the villager people also became part of the homeless people.

Because of this lesson, Kong San and Huang Weijie did not dare to let the villagers farm, and made a living by "abducting and selling people", "weapons processing", and "collecting protection fees".

Everyone went all the way back, the villages were barren along the way, there were no people, Kong San and Huang Weijie frowned, shook their heads and sighed, but Lao Hu didn't care, everyone in the mountain patrol army didn't think anything was wrong, troubled times, isn't it?

At this time, Lao Hu and the three of them were in the forefront, and the eight guards were a few seats behind, after all, there were some secrets that they couldn't listen to.

Looking at Lao Hu, who was shaking his head and humming a little song, enjoying himself, Kong San suddenly said lightly: "It's time!" ā€

Huang Weijie nodded, and Lao Hu was stunned: "What's the time?" (To be continued.) )
