364 The Verge
From Hunan into Sichuan, the road is far away and lonely, there are no planes and trains in ancient times, mostly by horse or on foot, or by boat, and Zhang Xianzhong out of strategic considerations, take a boat against the current, land and water go together, the road by the river is not better than the official road, high and steep, very difficult to walk, the speed is greatly reduced, so that Zhang Xianzhong feels a little bored to walk.
When you are bored, it is best to find something interesting to do, so that you can pass the time, Zhang Xianzhong likes to command his subordinates to fight, to be honest, Zhang Xianzhong likes the feeling of controlling other people's lives, and the taste of killing and killing at will makes him feel that he is as noble as a god in the sky, so omnipotent.
When the troops arrived in Fuzhou, Zhang Xianzhong personally led his three righteous sons with 150,000 troops to personally witness Wangjiangguan.
The 150,000 troops, including 30,000 sailors and 120,000 cavalry, came in a mighty and overwhelming manner, encircling a small Wangjiang Pass tightly.
The current Zhang Xianzhong is no longer the insignificant Eight Kings of Xiying when he first rebelled, that is a nickname, he established power when he occupied Hunan and Jiangxi, and now he is a veritable King of Daxi, and his subordinates are no longer those ragged and hungry people, but an army that has been on the battlefield for a long time, with bright armor and strict discipline.
A real-life version of the shotgun swap.
To the surprise of Lu Haoshan and others, the first thing Zhang Xian did when he led the army to surround Wangjiang Pass was not to attack, but to send an envoy to ride a horse slowly to Wangjiang Pass, and said arrogantly: "Who is the general guarding the pass, come out to discuss." β
Watching Jiangguan is the new Qianhu Chen Zhong, hearing the call of the envoy, he turned his head to see what instructions Lu Haoshan had, Lu Haoshan nodded lightly to him, Chen Zhong understood, and immediately responded loudly: "Wangjiangguan Qianhu Chen Zhong is here." What's your name, what's your name, what's the point of being this thousand households? β
"I am the messenger of the king of Daxi, and now on the orders of my king, I order you to switch and surrender immediately, as long as the switch surrenders, we will not kill a person, if you dare to say half a word, after breaking the pass, the chicken and dog will not stay, give half an hour for you to think about it." The messenger clasped his hands to his chest. Said with his head held high.
What kind of master will cultivate what kind of subordinates, Zhang Xianren is unkind, this guy also speaks stinky, this is said as if he gave everyone a way out, Lu Haoshan listened to it very harshly, and threw Chen Zhong with a look, signaling him to refuse.
After getting the attitude of his own adult, Chen Zhong immediately said loudly: "Don't think about it, sue sΓΉ Huanghu." If you have any ability, just use it, and we will continue to make any moves. β
"Figured it out so quickly?" The messenger was a little surprised, and if it were someone else, he would have to discuss it. In the past, they were all knowledgeable, but I didn't expect what this little thousand households thought before?
Seeing that Chen Zhong did not reply to him, the messenger said loudly: "You are only guarding here with a thousand households, and there are more than 1,000 people when you are full. Do you know how many centaurs our king has? There are 150,000 people around here alone, and you can stop so many of us with a thousand or hundreds of people? This is the mercy of our king, and his heart for the people. lest the lives be ruined, I will give you a chance, and if you dare to say half a word, you will immediately send troops to attack. β
said that it was a persuasion, the words were ugly, the face was ugly, and the look of gratitude and indesperability made Lu Haoshan a little annoyed when he saw it, and he didn't bother to talk nonsense with him when he heard the words, he reached out and took a three-stone strong bow, stretched the bow with an arrow, and pulled the bow like a full moon with force, aimed at the head of the horse, and let go with a "whoosh", and a sharp arrow shot out like lightning, accurately hitting the neck of the horse that the messenger was riding.
".......Neigh", the horse stood up in surprise, the front two hooves were raised in the air and struggled, and then fell to the ground with a "boom" and struggled, the horse was not good, and the messenger on horseback was not much better, and suddenly fell a dog to chew, not to mention the wolf bèi.
"Hahaha......" The soldiers of Wangjiang Pass laughed loudly, the believer got up, his face was pale, he opened his mouth and vomited, and the two front teeth spit out with saliva, and the original teeth were broken, and the soldiers of the Sichuan army on the city wall saw it and laughed louder.
The arrogant messenger was furious when he heard those laughter, and just pointed at the Sichuan army and wanted to scold, but he didn't expect Lu Haoshan to be another arrow, this arrow was shot at his feet, most of the arrow shaft was inserted into the ground, the arrow feathers were still trembling, it was clearly a threat, and the believer did not dare to provoke the Sichuan army again, and the next arrow hit his life, and he ran away quickly after throwing down a sentence.
Runs faster than a rabbit.
Zhao Gongchang complimented: "The adults wear willows in a hundred steps, and the villains admire." β
"If you shoot well, you can't get used to this kind of villain's ambition." Li Dingguo also echoed on the side.
Lu Haoshan smiled indifferently, threw the bow towards the guards, and then said indifferently: "I'm not used to people who are more arrogant than me, what kind of goods, I am so ashamed, if it weren't for the two armies fighting and not cutting him, he would have been killed a long time ago, and he would have been killed a long time ago. β
After a pause, Lu Haoshan continued: "What's wrong with these people recently, as soon as they have a little fame, they start to be full of benevolence, righteousness and morality, and they all change their temperament? β
Like Zhang Xianzhong and Li Zicheng, when they first started the rebellion, they only cared about filling their stomachs, and they could do anything for this, to be honest, they were two bandits, and now they are good, Li Zicheng has become a person who buys people's hearts, restricts his subordinates, divides land and land for the people, and sings what to open the door to meet the king, and the king comes to the nonsense of not paying food, and this Zhang Xianzhong is even more funny, and what do you say is benevolent and sympathetic to the people, and you don't blush when you say it, don't say anything else, just this way The people who pulled the fiber for him don't know how tired and killed, how many people were killed, this road is blood, tears and white bones, Now suddenly noble?
These two people, when they rebelled, they did less than the immoral things? It's like being a bitch and setting up a chastity archway.
didn't bother to waste his words with these people, Lu Haoshan said his answer with two arrows.
These two arrows cut off the hope of peace talks, and also shot Zhang Xianzhong's liver fire, waved it, and said coldly: "Kill, this king wants to wash Wangjiang Pass in blood, and kill a chicken and dog here." β
Under the order, the Great Western Army, which had been prepared for a long time, immediately rushed towards Wangjiang Pass like a tide, some people pushed and crashed into the car, some people carried ladders, and there were soldiers with longbows and firearms sandwiched in it, and those soldiers in front of them all held a wooden shield covered with cowhides, and one by one the sound of killing shook the sky and rushed towards Wangjiang Pass.
Pouring out of the nest is naturally not a game, in addition to food and grass, all kinds of siege equipment are brought, looking at this formation and frame, it is much higher than when Ainengqi attacked Wanxian.
Looking at the swarming Great Western Army, Lu Haoshan opened his mouth and asked, "Dingguo, are Dashan and Sun Xiong in place?" β
"If you go back to the adult, YiqiΔ is already in place, and the brother sent out has also arrived at the predetermined place, so it can be said that everything is ready, just waiting for the adult's order." Li Dingguo said respectfully.
Hearing that Zhang Xianzhong had fallen into his well-designed trap, Lu Haoshan showed a cruel smile on his lips, and sneered to himself: "Yes, I sent elite soldiers to attack at the beginning, and I didn't send innocent people as cannon fodder, so I still have a little bit of appearance, okay, if you don't come to the void, I won't play with you." β
"Dingguo"
"The last general," Li Dingguo immediately replied loudly.
"Don't play with them anymore" Lu Haoshan suddenly said with a straight face: "The person who brought you, give me a good fight, don't be soft." β
Although there are only 150,000 here, these 150,000 are the elite under Zhang Xianzhong's command, and if he defeats this group of people, he will cut off his left and right hands, and besides, everyone has entered his own sphere of influence, even if he wants to run, he can't run, and he doesn't have to go around in circles with him.
Li Dingguo's eyes lit up when he heard this, his subordinates were divided into an artillery brigade and a new fire brigade, all of them used firearms, and they were the elite of the Sichuan army.
It's okay, I have long wanted to see the power of these subordinates on the battlefield.
After Li Dingguo received the order loudly, he turned around and shouted: "The artillery brigade and the fire brigade are in position and ready to fight." β
At the sound of an order, a new type of firearms was erected on the city wall, condescendingly aiming at the Great Western Army charging below, and the newly developed artillery also aimed the muzzles of the black holes at the soldiers who rushed up below.
Battle, on the verge of breaking out. (To be continued......) R1292
