Chapter 188: Like a Dog
At the moment when Luo Shixin drew the knife, Qin Qiong, who felt that he was a little strange, had already made a move, and the long lance in his hand poked out as quickly as lightning, wanting to shoot down the horizontal knife in Luo Shixin's hand. This time it is already extremely fast, and it seems to be a simple lance, but if there is no extraordinary reaction and years of hard training, there is no such speed. Zhang Xutuo didn't expect Luo Shixin to have such a choice, he screamed and urged the horse forward, after all, he was still a little slower than Qin Qiong.
When the sound of Qin Qiong's spear almost touched Luo Shixin's horizontal knife, an armor-piercing cone flew quickly and hit the horizontal knife, and the strength of the armor-piercing cone shook the horizontal knife to a deviation, and it happened to hit Qin Qiong's long lance, Qin Qiong's reaction was far more comparable, and he picked up the horizontal knife and flew out.
"Why be so confused!"
Zhang Xutuo hurried to Luo Shixin and said loudly.
Luo Shixin smiled bitterly: "An Zhi is my brother, he has made many military exploits for the country in Liaodong, but after all, he was squeezed out by those people from the family, and he came back with tens of thousands of soldiers who fought hard but was intercepted and killed by the people and horses of the imperial court, and those generals were all defeated, but An Zhi came back with men and horses, and the pain and sadness I thought it would be me, and I would leave angrily." General, you are the person I respect the most, I have always regarded you as the division commander in my heart for the past two years, you can't tolerate it, and I can't bear to see my brother and division commander see each other with swords and soldiers, what can I do except die? ”
Qin Qiong came over and took off the long lance on his war horse's victory hook and threw it back, and his own soldiers immediately took a few steps back.
Qin Qiong hugged Li Xian and said, "Thank you!" ”
Li Xian withdrew the hard bow and said coldly: "I save Shixin, it has nothing to do with you, why do you want to thank me?" ”
Qin Qiong was stunned, but she didn't know how to answer.
Li Xian said to Luo Shixin: "Right and wrong, there is justice in the future." Shixin is now a military general of the imperial court, and you are also a bloody and hard-fought fame, and you can't make a mistake about yourself. I came this time to hunt down Zhang Jin and call Brother He Ruo revenge, Zhang Jin said that he had escaped, and I would not stay for long. ”
He hugged his fists and said, "When we come and say that you and my brother still have to see each other, let's drink again." I'm going to chase Zhang Jin and say, don't do stupid things again. There are many sufferings in this world, and if you can't think of it once, you will die once, and you don't know that you will die thousands or hundreds of times. Parents, you have no right to end your life. ”
He glanced at Zhang Xutuo with contempt in his eyes.
Turning his gaze back to Luo Shixin, Li Xian smiled and said, "Don't leave it at that, there will be a period later!" ”
Li Xian flicked his horse and said loudly to Zhang Xutuo: "That general who thinks he is loyal and patriotic, will you still come to attack?" If I don't come, I'll be gone. If you want to fight, then hurry up, and I will also understand the power of the elite soldiers of Qi County. Have you thought about it, if you don't fight, no one will report to the court, how can you explain? ”
He pointed at Zhang Xutuo with a black knife and said, "Oh...... I forgot, I only need to send some gold and silver to the important ministers in the court, and the great sin is not a sin. I can't say it, those few people can say a few words casually in front of the emperor, and they can also add a few more military exploits to General Zhang! ”
His actions were extremely impolite, but neither Qin Qiong nor Luo Shixin reprimanded him.
Even the Qi County soldiers present were speechless, because they all knew that although the leader of the thieves spoke harshly, none of them were not true. The imperial court has been eroded to a certain point, just take the equipment supply of the soldiers of Qi County as an example. The officials and soldiers of Qi County have won many victories in the battle against the thieves, but Zhang Xutuo has reported to the court many times, and the court only slightly rewarded Zhang Xutuo and Qin Qiong Luo Shixin, but he refused to give out a copper coin about the soldiers' pensions.
The county soldiers who were killed and wounded in previous wars, don't say that they are credited, even the bereavement is made up by the people of Qi County. Zhang Xutuo was helpless, and after discussing with Pei Yingzhi, the county guard of Qi County, he raised some gold and silver with the rich families of Qi County and sent it to Pei Ju, the squire of the Yellow Gate, and only one month, His Majesty's holy decree to reward and encourage the soldiers of Qi County arrived, and there were 1,000 sets of armor and equipment of the government soldiers.
Qin Qiong and Luo Shixin both deeply understand the sadness in this.
Although Zhang Xutuo was angry at the meanness in Li's gossip, he looked at the resolute sadness on Luo Shixin's face, and then looked back at the soldiers who were already exhausted after the repeated battles, and he only sighed after all.
"Let's go!"
He said to Li Xian: "Just remember one thing, don't come to my Qi County to commit murder, otherwise even if you fight to the last drop of blood, the old man will kill you." ”
Li Xian smiled and was noncommittal.
He turned to Qin Qiong and hugged his fists and said, "I have heard for a long time that Brother Qin is righteous, and his words have been offended a lot. I don't need to say more about the darkness and dirtiness in the court, but now I can see Brother Shixin, and I am really happy to see Brother Qin, who I have always admired. If you and I can not meet on the battlefield in the future, I am willing to get drunk with Brother Qin. ”
Qin Qiong also clenched his fists and said: "This is the best, I hope you and I will never see each other." ”
Li Xian nodded, hugged Luo Shixin's fist, and then ordered: "Let's go, don't kill Zhang Jincheng, don't get rid of this disaster, and swear not to return to the teacher!" ”
"Whoa!"
The five thousand elite horsemen made a uniform respect, and then slowly withdrew to the north. Zhang Xutuo watched the cavalry team leave, and sighed in his heart. The soldiers of the imperial court turned out to be thieves. But this thief is killing the thief. And why did the elite army of the imperial court become mountain bandits and horse thieves? Zhang Xutuo had already guessed it thoroughly. Even without Luo Shixin's words, he could have figured out the joints. In the past few years, the Great Sui has been said to be better than the next one, the imperial court [***], the family dictatorship, and His Majesty is no longer the ambitious Majesty at the beginning of his accession to the throne, all have changed.
"Count the prisoners and kill them all!"
Zhang Xutuo said coldly: "Let's go home!" ”
"Go home!"
The soldiers of Qi County cheered, and the sound shook the sky. There was no need to engage the five thousand elite light cavalry, and each of them breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts. In fact, they know that if they do fight, the odds of victory are in the hands of their opponents. Although his side has the advantage of troops, he has already fought with most of the men and horses of Zhishilang Wang Bo, and he is in a hurry from Qi County to the starry night, and he is already tired. Even when their combat power was at their peak, it was impossible for them to win against five thousand light horsemen who came and went like the wind, let alone the current situation?
In this battle, the soldiers of Qi County killed more than 20,000 enemies with the help of Yanyunzhai elite cavalry, captured more than 13,000 people, and forcibly scattered the men and horses of Zhishilang Wang Bo and Juye Ze Da Zhang Jincheng, Zhishilang Wang Bo only fled with more than 9,000 people, and Zhang Jin said that he was injured and escaped alone. With Zhang Xutuo's order, more than 13,000 prisoners of war were all beheaded, and after counting the casualties and rectifying the baggage, the soldiers of Qi County embarked on the journey home.
……
……
Wang Bo was very annoyed and aggrieved.
Came with an army of 100,000 and led Zhang Xutuo to the decisive battle under Daishan, the time and place can be said to have been snatched from Zhang Xutuo's hands, so that the county soldiers of Qi County left their homes to fight, and the county soldiers were tired from chasing after the starry night, and his men and horses relied on the terrain to wait for work. No matter how you look at it and think about it, he has the chance to win this battle.
But fate is always so ruthless, when he was in Jibei County, it was smooth sailing, whether it was the official army, or the heroes on the other green forest roads, which one was his opponent? originally wanted to change to a larger area to display his ambitions, but the ending made him feel as if he was being annihilated by a. People are full of pleasure, and he is almost squeezed into a human.
Wang Bo has 10,000 men and horses in his hands now, and the grain, grass, and baggage that he has robbed all the way have been robbed of 3,000 carts of goods and things that have been taken away by Zhang Xutuo's old thief, and what he must do now is to go and grab some supplies first. The route he had come had already been snatched up by him, and it was even more desolate than the locust fields, and there was nothing to scrape in. He calculated that Zhang Xutuo had won such a big victory and won so many things, and he would definitely have to return to Qi County, so he was not in a hurry to return to Jibei County, planning to take a detour and plunder.
After escaping from the foot of Daishan, he successively gathered more than 20,000 defeated soldiers, and Wang Bo had nearly 30,000 men and horses in his hands. After having grain and grass, he returned to the north of the Yellow River and contacted other heroes to take revenge.
Fortunately, as soon as he remembered Ju Ye Ze Zhang Jin called Wang Bo, he felt comforted in his heart. Although he was defeated, there were still 30,000 horses, and Zhang Jin said that this time he was planted at home and became a loner.
What he didn't expect was that Zhang Xutuo, who had planned to meet Qi County, suddenly changed his mind.
Because of Li Xian's words, Zhang Xutuo's heart was quite touched. On the way back to the city, he felt a little guilty as soon as he remembered the words of Li Xian's cavalry chanting not to kill Zhang Jin and vowing not to return to the division. The more he thought about it, the more unwilling he felt, so Zhang Xutuo asked Luo Shixin to return to Qi County with grain and grass, and he and Qin Qiong took 10,000 county soldiers to chase after them all the way along the traces left by Wang Bo's rout.
Wang Bo laid down two county towns and several forts of wealthy families along the way, seized countless grains, and retreated north of the Yellow River. As a result, when they arrived in Linyi, they were caught up by Zhang Xutuo with troops, after a vicious battle, Wang Bocai gathered 30,000 horses and horses were defeated again, and the soldiers of Qi County killed more than 10,000 enemies, Wang Bo was panicked like a lost dog with more than 4,000 people and horses to kill a bloody road and ran away, this battle, Wang Bo only robbed tens of thousands of grain and six animals, and was robbed by Zhang Xutuo.
Zhang Jin, who was more unlucky than him, said that because there was no one around him to follow, it was easier to escape, he first sneaked into a mountain and hid for more than ten days, and after making sure that he had thrown off the pursuers, he thought about it, he still had to go back to Dongping County, and he would soon be able to pull up a team in the name of Zhang Jin. So he began to flee alone for hundreds of miles, day and night along the way, not daring to see people, and the whole person was as if he had rolled out of the mud.
The once glamorous master of Junozawa now looks even dirtier than a beggar. When they were thirsty, they would find a small river or even a ditch to drink a few sips, and when they were hungry, they would not dare to go out to beg for food, so they could only sneak into the village and steal something to eat. Along the way, Zhang Jincheng, who was already extremely dry, was as thin as skin and bones.
But what reassured him was that at least he got rid of the devil-like black-armored general.
After walking like this for more than a month, Zhang Jinshu, who was no longer sincere and benevolent, finally returned to Dongping County. He was like a dog, drinking dirty water and eating rotten food, and he survived. He was unwilling, he hated, hated the black-armored general who took everything from him. He swore revenge, by all means.
In a dilapidated temple, Mr. Zhang decided to make it his new nest. It's just that this temple has been occupied by a few beggars, and Zhang Jin said that he was angry when he looked at those beggars who were dirty like dogs.
"Listen, all of you! I am the big boss of Junoze, Zhang Jin, from today on, you will follow me, here I will be used as a righteous hall, and in the future, you will follow me to recapture Junoze, women, wine, what do you want! ”
He puffed up his chest and said arrogantly to the beggars: "As long as you follow me, you are the first batch of my subordinates to regroup, and Lao Tzu will definitely take care of you in the future." ”
He pointed to an old beggar and said, "You, get out of the way, give that place to Lao Tzu!" ”
There was a tattered futon where the old beggar was sitting, and Zhang Jin said that he felt that it should be soft and comfortable to sit on.
"And you, give me the bun in your hand, and Lao Tzu will reward you with a few women in the future!"
He said as he walked forward, kicking the old beggar.
"Where's the dog thing!"
Zhang Jin said? If you are Zhang Jin, Lao Tzu is Yang Guang! ”
"Fight this wild dog that came out of nowhere!"
"Shoot him!"
Several beggars swarmed up, punching and kicking.
"Lao Tzu is Zhang Jincheng! Lao Tzu is the big boss of Junozawa! Lao Tzu will ...... in the future I can be an emperor in the future! ”
The sound grew fainter and weaker, and gradually, there was no movement.
