Chapter 69: Marriage
When the smoke cleared, Wang Dou and the others saw the startled and frightened bandits a few steps ago, and beside them, there were corpses of the bandits everywhere, and some people who were not dead were still rolling on the ground and screaming.
At this time, the fierce war drums of the Chinese military headquarters sounded, and immediately two rows of pikemen in iron armor behind the sword and shield soldiers of Jingbian Fort rushed out with their guns.
"Kill!"
The pikemen in the first row were led by Han Chao, and Han Chao shouted an order, and the pikemen stabbed out the spears in their hands to the bandits in front of them.
A row of spears stabbed out like lightning, each shot at the opponent's eyes, throat, heart, and waist, and in the screams, several bandits covered their wounds and fell down in pain.
The pikemen stabbed once and then again, and some of the bandits' broadswords and spears stabbed at them, although they had iron armor to protect them, but there were still a few people who had a low muffled snort when they were wounded, and they gritted their teeth and stood still, but the spears in their hands stabbed out again, stabbing the bandits on the opposite side to death.
"Stand back!"
With Han Chao's voice, the first row of pikemen retreated, and the second row of pikemen led by Zhong Tiaoyang stepped forward.
"Kill!"
The pikemen in the second row stabbed out the spears in their hands in unison, and there was another scream.
……
In the short battle, Lian was shot by birds, killed by javelins, and assassinated by two platoons of pikemen, and more than 30 corpses of bandits had fallen in front of the Jingbian Fort array alone, lying on the ground with blood everywhere, and more than a dozen bandits were injured.
Previously, the bandits seemed to have a gap on the side of Jingbian Fort, and they picked and pinched the persimmons, and the attack vanguard of more than 200 people was divided into as many as 100 in front of the Jingbian Fort army, but before they could react, the casualties had accounted for nearly half.
Even if these bandit pioneers are the bravest of the bandits and the most fearless of life and death, their faces have changed drastically at this time, and they are very afraid, but they hesitantly stand on the periphery and dare not step forward.
Xu Zucheng muttered: "It's really sharp!" ”
……
The bandits fled in advance, and the officers and soldiers pursued for a while, no more chaotic than other officers and soldiers, and the sergeants of Jingbianbao also kept in line during the pursuit. The officers and men pursued for a while, and when the opponent's horse team came out to intercept it, they collected their troops and returned to the battle.
The first battle was victorious, and the morale of the officers and men was greatly boosted.
During the break, Xu Zucheng summoned Wang Dou to speak, looking at Wang Dou's subordinates, Xu Zucheng nodded again and again: "Good soldiers!" ”
He said, "Wang Dou, are these the family members you trained?" ”
Wang Dou hugged his fists and said: "Lord Hui, these are all military households from Jingbian Fort, and they have been trained roughly for several months!" ”
Everyone collectively took a breath of cold air and trained the military for a few months?
If you train for a few months, what will it look like?
Xu Zucheng was also speechless, and finally sighed: "The future is terrifying!" ”
His personal general Yang Dongmin also said on the side: "So brave, I'm afraid that Qi Shuai's soldiers back then were just like that!" ”
Yang Zhichang, the defensive officer of the Five Forts, was also very surprised and looked at Wang Dou in disbelief.
Xu Zucheng looked at the bird guns in the hands of the bird guns in Jingbian Fort with emotion, and heard that these bird guns were only made by ordinary craftsmen in Shunxiang Fort, and he was speechless for a long time.
He looked at the sergeants who looked at Wang Dou, although these were just ordinary soldiers in Jingbian Fort, but they all had abilities comparable to those of the family, and even the two teams of soldiers made Xu Zucheng pay attention to them, ignoring their beggar costumes. I also heard that there were still a few teams of soldiers left behind in Wang Doubao, so that Wang Dou had a hundred or dozens of troops in his hands, and his combat power was comparable to that of his family.
Listening to Wang Dou's words, Yang Zhichang, the defender of the Five Forts, immediately made fun of him.
In this era, night blindness is widespread, it is difficult to read things at night, and the organization of night battles is extremely difficult, this night battle is chaos, no wonder Yang Zhichang said this.
Zhang Gui said angrily: "Lord Yang, when the Four Leaning Liang bandits were exterminated last year, it was Wang Zongqi who led people to sneak attack at night, how can this night attack be done?" ”
Listening to Zhang Gui's words, Xu Zucheng was also a little moved, and he muttered: "It's just that the families who are good at night battles in each fort and don't collect at night are scarce, I'm afraid that the troops are insufficient!" ”
Although the officers had some family members, most of them did not have the ability to fight at night. Although it is customary to be active at night, the number of people in each fort is small, and there is no experience in cooperating with each other, so it is also a question who will command and command. Night battles are notoriously dangerous, and any small accident can be undone.
Just as he was muttering, Wang Dou stood up again and clasped his fists and saluted: "Lord Xu, since the night attack was proposed by the lowly position, the lowly position is willing to lead his subordinates to steal the camp!" ”
Yang Zhichang, the defensive officer of the Five Forts, immediately sneered: "General Banner Wang, there is no joke in the army!" ”
Wang Dou said lightly: "Dare to make a military order!" ”
……
At night, Wang Dou quietly took his five teams of soldiers and two teams of soldiers out of the fortress. In his discussion with Xu Zucheng and others, if the night attack was successful, Wang Dou would release a rocket signal, and the officers and soldiers in the head fort would lead troops to support.
Watching the figures of Wang Dou and the others wiped out, Xu Lu sighed: "This young man just can't hold his breath, he can't stand the excitement, this bandit is not trivial, but it is not as good as the bandits in Si Leanliang."
When the officers and soldiers entered the camp, they saw that most of the inside had been burned, there were broken trees and broken branches everywhere, and the corpses and blood of the bandits were all covered with staggering.
In the camp, Xu Zucheng and others saw Wang Dou with a face covered in blood, and then looked at his subordinates, they were all covered in blood, I don't know if it was their own or someone else's, it can be seen that many of them are wearing colors.
Wang Dou tiredly reported to Xu Zucheng that he led more than 80 people, and after successfully attacking the camp, he killed more than 200 bandits, captured more than 500 thieves, and most of the bandit cavalry were killed, and it is estimated that only dozens of people fled, and some thieves dispersed at night. In addition, more than 280 war horses were seized, as well as a number of gold and silver, and many grain and grass materials were not liquidated.
Looking at the tragic appearance in the camp, Xu Zucheng sighed: "Wang Dou, you have made meritorious contributions in attacking and killing the thief camp, you should be credited, and this official will repay you for your merits and ask for rewards." ”
Everyone sighed and nodded, Wang Dou made this contribution, with less hits, and did what was impossible for everyone to do, everyone was impressed.
Only Yang Zhichang snorted lightly, with a look of jealousy in his eyes.
Xu Zucheng ordered to search and suppress the bandits, count the supplies, and looked at the boxes of gold and silver in front of him, as well as a lot of grain and grass, everyone was overjoyed, and the harvest was too big this time.
Looking at the more than 280 war horses in front of him, Xu Zucheng pondered for a while, and he said to Wang Dou: "Wang Zongqi, these captured horses and materials ......"
Wang Doushen gave a bow: "Everything is up to Lord Xu!" ”
Xu Zucheng was stunned, he looked up to the sky and laughed, he patted Wang Dou's shoulder heavily, and said loudly: "Wang Dou, you are very good, very good!" ”
……
On the ninth day of October in the eighth year of Chongzhen, Wang Dou got married.
On this day, the entire Jingbian Fort was decorated with lights and beams. But I didn't have anything to be unhappy about, although I didn't make a defensive officer, but I was transferred to the state city to serve as a tuntian official, and I was also very happy, after all, the state city was prosperous, and it was much better than staying in a small Shunxiang Fort.
There is a saying among scholars that if you lose the east, you will reap the mulberry or something, and it is so appropriate to use it on yourself.
After listening to Zhang Gui's words, Wang Dou quickly came back to his senses, Zhang Gui was transferred to the state city to serve as a tuntian official, and he was appointed as a defensive officer. He hurriedly said: "Rejoice and rejoice, the elder brother is promoted, and the younger brother is also congratulating you, and you will have to work a lot in the future." ”
Zhang Gui smiled so much that he couldn't see his teeth, and he said: "It's easy to say, it's all brothers, just come and find it if you have something!" ”
Wang Dou welcomed Zhang Gui in, and soon, the good news that Wang Dourong was promoted to the defense officer of Shunxiang Fort spread, and the soldiers in the fort were even more happy.
Then more guests rolled in, Lin Daoji came, Zhang Jungui came, Chang Zhengwei, the manager of Huiyao Fort, Zhong Dayong, the team officer came, and Feng Dachang, the commander of Shunxiang Fort, Zhou Zhuang, Hu Zhuang, Jia Duonan, Lu Xianyang, Zhang Shubo, and others came, all accompanied by smiling faces, respectful and affectionate, and defending adults one by one.
Wang Douyi greeted them with a smile, and there was a person next to him who called his brother-in-law, but it was Xie Xiuniang's younger brother Xie Yike.
This guy is sixteen years old this year, he has clear eyebrows, but his body is stout, he is the only male in the Xie family, Xie Xiuniang has a total of eight brothers and sisters, two younger brothers starved to death a few years ago, one elder brother, two sisters were given away, Xie Xiuniang's family now has only one sister and this younger brother.
Xie Yike, this guy is a self-acquaintance, he has only been in the castle for a few days, and he mingles with everyone, and Wang Dou likes him very much.
At this time, he glared at Xie Yike: "You kid, you know how to run around, and you don't follow me to greet guests." ”
Xie Yike shouted: "Okay, brother-in-law will do whatever he says."
That kind of expectation and feelings for Wang Dou, she can't express it in words, she heard a small song before, and felt that it was in her heart.
"Separation, unless heaven and earth are done. To be separated, unless the east has done the west...... You have to share the time, but you can't share me. When I want to leave, I can't leave you. Even if you die in Huangquan, you can't be a ghost! ”
Xie Xiuniang felt that there was something blocking in her heart, and her mood was very agitated, she felt like crying, but in front of everyone, she was embarrassed to cry.
Suddenly, there was another shout outside: "Ah, Master Xu is also here!" ”
Immediately, everyone in the room hugged out, and Xie Xiuniang also subconsciously stood up, and then sat down again. She sat stunned, and before she knew it, tears were already flowing. Perhaps, this is what the reader calls happiness.
