Serve the court and be loyal to the Lord!

This shameless sentence is easy to say, but it is very difficult and dangerous to do. In fact, if it weren't for the poisoning tricks that Chen Yingliang learned from Yang Zhiji, which worked smoothly and completely paralyzed the command system of Meng Rang's army, and severely hit the morale and fighting spirit of Meng Rang's army, the Qianjun army, which was not superior in strength, experience and combat effectiveness, might not have been able to stop Meng Rang's team from breaking through with all its might. But even so, the war was fought dangerously and narrowly at one point.

Chen Yingliang's tactical arrangement was like this, using poisonous wine, poisonous meat, and poisonous water to hit the enemy's military heart, and also poisoned some enemy generals and elites and lost their combat effectiveness; Then let the brave people of the village beat drums and shout in the mountains and forests, and cooperate with the means of rolling stones and trees to cut off the mountain road, creating a panic atmosphere, so that the enemy can not care about each other, the army is even more panicked, and also take the opportunity to let the poison attack, and the real killing move is the last hammer anvil tactic.

The so-called hammer anvil tactic, as the name suggests, is like striking iron, constantly hitting the enemy's rear with a hammer, forcing the enemy to continue to march forward, and then the team that plays the role of the chopping board to solve the enemy head-on, this is a common tactic in the Macedonian phalanx era, the pikemen serve as the chopping board, and the cavalry is responsible for acting as a hammer, Chen Yingliang has a certain understanding of this tactic, and found that the Modao team trained by Kan Liang can fully play the role of the Macedonian spear formation, and it can come in handy on the ambush battlefield with narrow roads. The idea of emulating came up with it, and arranged for Ma Sanbao to lead the light infantry to play the role of a hammer according to local conditions, and put it into practical action.

Facts have proved that in a special environment, Chen Yingliang's tactics are very effective, the light infantry led by Ma Sanbao copied the small Dao to attack the back of Meng Rang's front army, not only completely cut off the connection between Meng Rang's front army and the middle and rear army, but also made the enemy have the fear of being dumplings if he did not break through quickly, and put the main forces into the frontal battlefield, and went all out to impact the front defense line of the Qian Jun army, which also hit Chen Yingliang's hands, because the Qian Jun army in this position was not only the best equipped, but also covered with bows and arrows, And occupy an absolutely advantageous narrow terrain, just enough to give the enemy a head-on attack.

Next, the battle is completely a model specimen of the Mo knife soldiers' combat, first by the Mo knife team behind the strong crossbow shot the distant enemy, after the enemy rushed closer, the archers threw the enemy to kill, the enemy paid heavy casualties and then rushed to the Sui army close, the Mo knife team in a dense formation also had the opportunity to show their skills, a long Mo knife first straight chop and then back, one after another, like a precision machine qì general effective killing, the oncoming enemy almost no chance of hand-to-hand combat has been hacked to death and chopped over, At the same time, bows and arrows continued to be thrown, suppressing the enemy's rear and continuing to expand the results.

The narrow mountain road has become a nightmare for Meng Rang's army, the mountain road that is not a few zhang wide can not be Meng Rang's army to develop the team to give full play to the advantages of troops, can only be a hard head to continue to impact the front of the copper wall and iron wall, the few soldiers and the fine Qianjun team can fully play the advantages of being well-equipped, the iron armor on the body can reach many unexpected attacks, reduce casualties, and the Mo knife and bow and arrow in the hand can be a three-dimensional killing of the enemy, even if the Mo knife soldiers in the front row unfortunately fall, the companions in the back row can also immediately fill his position, Do not give the enemy any chance to widen the gap at all.

In such a situation, the wisest thing for Meng Rang's army was of course to retreat temporarily, lure the Modao soldiers to fight in the open field, or try to attack the flank and back of the Sui army of Qianjun, but Ma Sanbao continued to blempty in the rear and fight flexibly, and the townsmen were still beating drums and shouting on both sides of the mountain road to intimidate the enemy, and the Meng Rang team, whose command system was completely paralyzed, did not dare to retreat, and could not think of any way to outflank it, so Wang Xin, who could only squat on the ground and excrete, continued to charge continuously, repeatedly charged, and died in vain. It also gave the army a chance to kill the enemy in actual combat and exercise.

Then for a period of time, the Qianjun army basically only needed to do two things, that is, slashing and slashing and drawing the bow and arrows, the snowy Mo knife flew over, and the oncoming enemy was chopped and stoned to death, flesh and blood flew sideways, and the flying feather arrows continued to whistle and fall, shooting into the dense places of the enemy in the rear, so that one after another the enemy screamed and fell down with arrows, and the killing was extremely wide, but with the descent of the body and the accumulation of corpses in front of him, as well as the desperate impact of Meng Rang's army trapped beasts, the Sui army's defense line was almost broken through by the enemy, fortunately, Kan Liang, who commanded the battle, was also quite experienced, Immediately rearranged a defensive line fifty paces away from the rear, and then the front team fought and retreated, retreated to rest behind the second defensive line, and replaced the new force of the rear team to continue to kill the enemy, and then the battle line was stabilized again.

By the way, because of the lack of experience, the two teams of Mo sword soldiers before and after the rotation of the battle, almost chaotic and give the enemy a chance, fortunately Kan Liang made up for the leak in time, personally shot, fiercely waved the blade to smash the heads of several outlaw thieves who came forward, and intimidated the enemy with their own divine power, which made the team under his command successfully change defenses.

The narrow and long mountain road gave the Sui army Mo knife team plenty of tactical space, and it also became a nightmare place for the Meng Rang thief army, on the mountain road battlefield of the head-on battle, the corpses of the thief soldiers were dense, layer upon layer, just like laying a layer of flesh and blood carpet on the mountain road, because the road was narrow and the team was too dense, countless wounded soldiers of the thief army were completely trampled to death by their own companions, and some intact thief soldiers were accidentally pushed down and tripped and trampled into flesh sauce blood corpses, and the blood flowed along the roadside and accumulated into a puddle of blood.

After paying a heavy price and still unable to break through the resistance of the Sui army of Qian County, Meng Rang's front army was no matter how elite and good at fighting began to panic, and many soldiers were already looking around looking for a path to escape, and when they heard the news that Meng Rang had been robbed by Du Fuwei's people, countless thief soldiers suddenly turned around and ran, and many people directly took off their heavy iron armor, threw these iron armors that were hard to grab on the ground, and escaped lightly into the deep mountains and old forests, while the Sui army team counterattacked on all fronts, and the Mo Dao team advanced like a wall, slashing and defeating the enemy, and successfully captured Wang Xinxi, who was fleeing for his life by his own soldiers.

On the other side, Ma Sanbao, who had been fighting flexibly, also started a major counteroffensive, wantonly slashing and killing the thief army that fled for their lives, and won a lot of money, and also took advantage of the distance to reach the position of Yuan Tiangangsheng to capture Meng Rang in front of Kan Liang, and easily annihilated more than 800 poisoned thief elites like chopping melons and vegetables, and captured almost all the thief army war horses, temporarily solving the problem of insufficient war horses of the Sui army in Qian County.

learned from Chen Yingliang's mouth about the course of the battle, Zhang Xutuo did not speak for half a pillar of incense, and Mulan, Luo Shixin and others exchanged heads, and there was no admiration in their eyes when they looked at Chen Yingliang, but there was some disdain, as if they felt that Chen Yingliang's winning methods were a little disgraceful. At the end, Mulan was still very unconvinced and asked Chen Yingliang: "Chen Tongshou, you poisoned the mutton soup and wine, this trick is very unique, but how do you know that Meng Rang will definitely eat these wine and meat?" ”

"I never expected Meng Rang himself to eat this wine and meat." Chen Yingliang smiled and said: "I just want to poison some of the thieves, because according to the habit of the thieves team, I found that these good wine and meat must only be enjoyed by elite soldiers and strong generals, and I will definitely be able to poison some of the enemy's elite soldiers." In addition, I can also make the enemy notice the small pond next to it, there is little water in the mountainous area, and the enemy has been marching for more than 20 miles, so I must drink some water when I encounter the pond, so that the arsenic letter stone I put in the pond in advance will not be wasted. ”

Speaking of this, Chen Yingliang smiled and said with a smile: "As for Meng Rang, Wang Xinwei and Li Chou, these big thieves were all poisoned, I really didn't even think about it beforehand, and now it seems that this can only be said to be the Holy Blessing Qitian, God blessed, let Meng Rang these big thieves kill themselves." ”

"It's your shit luck, right?" Mulan snorted in her heart, and then said with an arrogant expression: "So, Chen Tongshou wasn't sure that he would be able to hold Meng Rang beforehand?" Have you thought about it, if you don't work this time and fail to capture the big thief Meng Rang, what will happen to you? ”

Before Mulan's words fell, Chen Yingliang's faces suddenly changed when Ma Sanbao, Kan Liang, Zhang Di and Li Yi beside him changed, and Chen Yingliang said with a smile: "What are the consequences, I don't need to think about it, I just need to consider where my own responsibilities are, and try my best to kill the thieves and quell the rebellion, so I can have a clear conscience." ”

"Chen Tongshou, of course you don't have to think about the consequences." Mulan sneered and said: "If it weren't for your Chen Tongshou's good luck this time, once Meng Rang's rebels successfully crossed Mangdang Mountain, they would be able to flee to the south of Pengcheng immediately, and then Chen Tongshou of Qian County would be able to stand by and continue to chase and kill Meng Rang, and it would still be our Qi County team, right?" Also, Chen Tongshou sent someone to pretend to be Du Fuwei's messenger to lure Meng Rang to the south of Pengcheng under the pretense of Du Fuwei's reputation, I'm afraid that his real thoughts are like this, right? Of course, it is best to kill Meng Rang, if you can't get rid of him, you can also let him wander to the south of Pengcheng and return the envoy to us Ambassador Zhang who suppressed the thieves and quelled the rebellion? ”

Chen Yingliang, who really had the idea of causing trouble, was a little embarrassed, but the generals next to him, Ma Sanbao and Kan Liang, couldn't bear it, especially Zhang Di, who had already had a conflict with Mulan, and directly said sarcastically: "General Hua is so smart, have you guessed this?" Since the general is so smart, why haven't you even caught a single hair of Meng Rang after so many years of tossing? Why did our Chen Tongshou catch Meng Rang himself for the first time? ”

"That's because we forced Meng Rang to Mangdang Mountain!" Mulan raised her eyebrows and said loudly: "If we don't chase and fight in the back, it's up to you ......." ”

"Shut up!" Zhang Xutuo spoke in time to stop the corners of his mouth from expanding, and then shouted to Mulan: "Shut your mouth!" Dare to talk nonsense again, provoke right and wrong, and engage in military law! ”

Afraid of Zhang Xutuo's harsh management of the army, Mulan obediently shut up, but was even more dissatisfied with Chen Yingliang in her heart, secretly scolding Chen Yingliang for favoring and protecting the short, and the rewards and punishments were unknown, and did not reprimand Zhang Di, who also provoked quarrels. Zhang Xutuo turned to Chen Yingliang and said: "Chen Tongshou, please don't mind, these generals under the old man's account are all rough people, and they are open-mouthed, don't be like them." ”

"Don't worry, the old general, it's okay." Chen Yingliang smiled lightly and said: "General Mulan is also telling the truth, without the old general's thousand-mile pursuit and huge pressure on Meng Rang's thieves, it would be impossible for our army to achieve such a big victory, so let's do it, if the old general doesn't dislike it, you can take Meng Rang these thieves to ask the court for credit, and I will solve the reward for the money and grain on the side of the Qianjun team." ”

felt that the battle exploits that should have belonged to him were sent back by Chen Yingliang again, Mulan, He Yanyu and Luo Shixin and others' eyes suddenly lit up, especially Luo Shixin, who was a little concerned about money, his eyes were still bright enough to show the shadow, but unfortunately Zhang Xutuo arched his hand and said: "Thank you Chen Tongshou for your kindness, but the old man has never had the habit of plundering the beauty of people and competing for the merits of friendly troops. ”

If Yun Da Shaoqing said such a thing, Chen Yingliang would definitely immediately package Meng Rang carefully, tie a beautiful bow, and stuff it into Yun Da Shaoqing's hand, but Zhang Xutuo couldn't do it, Chen Yingliang, who knew Zhang Xutuo's arrogant character, didn't even say a kind word, and nodded directly and said: "Okay, since the old general said so, then the lower official is not welcome." ”

The light in the eyes of Mulan and the others suddenly dimmed, and Luo Shixin began to grit his teeth, and then Chen Yingliang built Zhang Xutuo to take advantage of the fact that the sky was not yet completely dark, and asked the main force to withdraw from Mangdang Mountain to camp and rest in an open area, and only arranged for the body to have enough fresh troops to search and kill the remnants of the enemy, and wait until dawn the next day, and then arrange cavalry to pursue a large number of remnants of the enemy, this time Zhang Xutuo finally did not refuse, and immediately nodded and agreed to Chen Yingliang's construction. In order to get close to Zhang Xutuo's team, Chen Yingliang ordered the army of Qian County to go out of the mountain together and go to camp and rest next to Zhang Xutuo's team for the night.

Chen Yingliang soon found out that he had done a stupid thing that backfired, when he was camping and resting, the soldiers of Qi County who were chasing him for thousands of miles were all unkempt, gnawing on hard dead wheat cakes, and drinking raw and cold water; The team of Qianjun who is close to the old nest is killing pigs and slaughtering sheep, cooked by professionally trained Huotou army essence water, the meat is fragrant, and each person can also get a bowl of water and wine, singing and dancing to celebrate today's victory in Mangdang Mountain. The contrast is so strong, the soldiers of Qi County who have worked hard in vain are of course all nests, and Chen Yingliang is because he forgot to reward Zhang Xutuo's team with wine and meat in advance, so he can only give a small amount of wine and meat to Zhang Xutuo and other generals in the army - as a result, the messenger who sent the wine and meat came back to report that Luo Shixin had smashed the wine jar.

With a wry smile, Chen Yingliang could only quickly send someone to contact Yongcheng, and asked the eldest grandson Wuji and Dong You and others to quickly send a batch of wine and meat, so as to compensate Zhang Xutuo's team the next day, and at the same time strictly ordered the officers and men in the army to be sure not to clash with friendly forces. In addition, Chen Yingliang called Ma Sanbao again, and whispered a task to Ma Sanbao, so that Ma Sanbao must have a party with Zhang Xutuo's generals, and then set up a gambling game after the party, and deliberately lost some money to Luo Shixin in the gambling game, Ma Sanbao asked why, Chen Yingliang replied truthfully: "I like Luo Shixin very much, I want to have a good relationship with him, and I heard that he has a temper that loves money, and every time he kills the enemy, he has to cut off his nose and bring it back for money, so let you go to my favor." ”

Ma Sanbao suddenly realized, and then nodded and promised, and then Chen Yingliang suddenly remembered the important matter of Qin Qiong's filial piety, and hurriedly sent someone back to Yongcheng, asking the eldest grandson Wuji to send him a few old ginseng so that he could give it to Qin Qiong's wife.

In the early morning of the next day, the pursuit of the Sui army began again, but considering that the enemy's main force had been destroyed, it was useless to kill more miscellaneous soldiers, Chen Yingliang, who had no cavalry in his hands, did not send an army to pursue over Mangdang Mountain, but only arranged for light infantry familiar with the terrain to search the mountain, and Zhang Xutuo arranged for Luo Shixin and Tang Wanche to lead the cavalry to pursue across the mountain, and ordered every effort to search for the whereabouts of Cao Wei, the thief army of Meng Rang, so as not to gather the remnants of the actual number two person of Meng Rang's army, Re-mess.

Luo Shixin and Tang Wanche's cavalry returned to the camp before it was dark, and reported to Zhang Xutuo with anger that not only did they not find Cao Wei's whereabouts, but they also did not even cut down a few of the iron-clad traitors. On the other side, Chen Yingliang couldn't cry and laugh when he heard the news, the light infantry he sent into the mountains relied on their familiarity with the terrain, not only captured far more prisoners than the Sui army of Qi County, but also caught the traitor general Cao Wei who accidentally broke his leg! As a result, when escorting the prisoners back to the camp, the soldiers of Qijun were happily singing military songs, but the soldiers of Qijun were so angry that they drew their swords and cut stones, and Mulan also cut down the famous solid stones and aragonites of Mangdang Mountain.

This is not over, it is night, although Chen Yingliang finally took out the wine and meat to reward Zhang Xutuo's team, and Zhang Xutuo, Luo Shixin and others celebrated to the fullest, somewhat resolved some of the estrangement and contradictions between each other, after the banquet, Ma Sanbao also launched a gambling game according to the order, and pulled Luo Shixin and a large group of generals to gamble next to the bonfire, when Chen Yingliang took the opportunity to send the old ginseng to Qin Qiong, Qin Qiong, a famous general of Lingyan Pavilion and a famous door god, was of course inexplicable, and Chen Yingliang said with sincerity: "General Qin, This is a little heart I gave to Lingtang, I have long heard of the general's filial piety, and I also admire filial piety the most, so I specially prepared these old ginseng, and asked the general to take it home to honor Gaotang. ”

"Chen Tongshou, I have received your wishes, but I don't have to." Qin Qiong said with a smile: "But my mother has already passed away, and when I was still under the tent of General Hu'er, her old man had already passed away." Also, she has vertigo (high blood pressure), and the doctor said that she will never use ginseng and deer antler supplements. ”

Chen Yingliang, who was deceived by the TV series again, was extremely embarrassed, and he didn't know what to do with the ginseng that had been handed out, and Mulan next to him laughed directly, but at this time, Luo Shixin's thunderous roar came from the gambling game, "Wait!" I'll go back and get the money! I don't believe it, you can still open twelve in a row! ”

yelled, Luo Shixin really rushed back to the military tent to get the money, Chen Yingliang was shocked, quickly called Ma Sanbao to the side, and asked him alone why he didn't listen to the order and didn't deliberately lose the money to Luo Shixin? Ma Sanbao said with a smile: "Tongshou, I lost, and I deliberately lost ten taels of gold and twenty yuan to him, but Kan Liang opened eleven big ones in a row, and Luo Shixin bet eleven small ones in a row, and he lost them cleanly with interest!" ”

"Kan Liang? Didn't you say he was the biggest fat sheep in our county? Nine out of ten bets are lost, bet straight, and never lose the account? Chen Yingliang was stunned.

"Kan Liang is a fat sheep, it's no problem for me to win his mother-in-law." Ma Sanbao replied with a wry smile: "But who told him that he was very lucky tonight, he opened eleven small ones in a row, and ran into Luo Shixin to make trouble, if I have to do it with him, I just have no chance to lose money." ”

Chen Yingliang had nothing to say at all, he could only hope that Kan Liang's luck would turn bad and lose the money he won to Luo Shixin again. But what made Chen Yingliang desperate was that when Luo Shixin returned to the scene with a large package, he yelled and threw the package on the gambling table, saying that it was all a small bet! Then Kan Liang opened the dice cup again, and Luo Shixin's roar immediately resounded throughout the audience, "It's big again!" Lao Tzu hit a ghost today, why did he open twelve big ones in a row?! ”

"Lao Tzu doesn't believe in this evil! My knife, bet small! ”

"Big? Big again?! Thirteen big! ”

"Lao Tzu fights! My horses, my armor, and my spears are all on it! Or bet small! ”

In the end, Zhang Xutuo really couldn't stand it and came forward in person, which stopped Luo Shixin's action of betting his pants on the gambling table, and also stopped the impulse of the generals of Qi County to return the account and withdraw the money, leaving Kan Liang, the famous fat sheep of Qian County, laughing in front of a large pile of trophies, saying that he finally won back all the output in the previous months, and made no less than ten times! Li Yi and Zhang Di were asking Kan Liang for a treat, and Chen Yingliang also lamented vigorously on the side, "It's self-defeating, it's self-defeating!" It's really lucky, nothing can stop it! ”
