Chapter 217: Dead End, Uncle and Nephew Desperately
Although the horse thieves are fierce, after all, they are from a horse household, and they are essentially helping farmers, although the skill of controlling horses is comparable to that of elite cavalry, but to say that they are cavalry is too high to think of them.
Horse thieves, but a bunch of horse thieves!
A group of thieves who can ride horses, how can they be the opponents of the Liaozhen elite cavalry killed by the blood sea corpse pile!
Under the sudden blow of the wolf cavalry, the more than 70 horse thieves blocking the east had almost no power to fight back, and they were scattered in all directions.
There were even horse thieves who had not had time to mount their horses, and their eyes lit up, and they were killed by the merciless guns.
Cao Bianjiao took the lead, as if entering a no-man's land, where the spear arrived, people turned on their backs.
But most of the wolf cavalry were holding the standard equipment of the Liao army, the three-eyed firecracker, and took advantage of the cheap raid to knock down the horse thieves who had not yet reacted.
Rushing closer, before he could strike the gun, he swept the pipe made of fine iron straight away, and with the help of the horse's momentum, smashed the opponent's chest like a thousand pounds of iron hammer, and vomited blood to death.
The powerful one directly smashed the horse thief to suffocation to death. If it is smashed on the head, it will suddenly be a gourd opening and the brain will splash
The deafening sound of the gun resounded over the entire town of Autumn Water with that sharp scream.
Hearing the movement, the soldiers of the Beijing camp suddenly came to their senses, and they knew that they must have come to reinforcements, because in addition to the soldiers and horses of the imperial court, which army in this world would use guns.
"Brothers, reinforcements are coming, rush with Lao Tzu!"
Pei Shaokuan was excited, pulled out his saber and pointed out the town, wanting to fight those horse thieves with reinforcements. However, after a few shouts, only a dozen pro-soldiers and two thousand generals surrounded them, and the rest of the soldiers stood there stunned and did not move.
Damn, Lao Tzu's face has been lost by you!
Pei Shaokuan was so angry that he stomped his feet, annoyed that his soldiers were too cowardly, but he didn't dare to force the order, let alone raise the knife, cut off one or two cowers, and then say a few heroic words that made people angry.
What kind of virtue does his soldier have, and what kind of virtue does he know as a superior? I'm afraid that if they really do that, these soldiers will be able to reverse the mouth and blow him into a hornet's nest on the spot. It's a big deal to report to the imperial court afterwards - Pei commanded the hero to kill the enemy and sacrificed his life for the country.
Qianhu Li Guoheng is a person who understands, and when he saw this scene, he hurriedly stepped forward and persuaded in a low voice: "My lord, I don't know if you are here today, whether you are a friend or an enemy, we can't be sure." According to the lower officials, it is better to wait and wait until the situation is clear. ”
Listening to this suggestion of "old Cheng is serious", Pei Shaokuan suddenly knew that Li Guoheng was looking for himself to go down the stairs, so he was busy and went down, nodded very approvingly, and affirmed: "What Li Qianhu said is very true, if it weren't for your reminder, this official would have almost made a big mistake." If it was our people, it would be fine, but if not, the official would have killed the brothers. ”
After a pause, he ordered Li Guoheng with a straight face: "You take someone to see it immediately, if it is our people, you will immediately report it to the official to know, and the official will lead his troops to rush out of the gang and kill all those bold horse thieves!" If not, give the order and hold on until dawn! ”
Hearing the order, Li Guoheng bowed violently and praised from the bottom of his heart: "My lord is wise!" ”
Those soldiers of the Beijing camp listened to the commander's order, and immediately nodded in agreement one by one, and then looked nervously out of the town, no one paid attention to the sneering look on the commander's face at the moment
After the sound of the gun, Peng Dazhui knew that it was definitely an official soldier, and with his "professional" instinct, he almost did not hesitate for a moment, and turned over and got on the horse.
Peng Dazhui, who had raised horses for 20 years before he became a horse thief, could naturally hear from the sound of horses' hooves that there were not many officials and soldiers who came, perhaps not as many as his own. They just took advantage of the surprise, and if they really got together, they might not be able to beat the subordinates who had followed them for many years.
Peng Dazhui, who has been wandering in Hebei for almost two years, knows that none of the officers and troops in Hebei can fight, let alone any cavalry, but after the Dongjiang Liao soldiers rebelled in Wuqiao, there were many brightly dressed officers and soldiers in the direction of the Beijing Division, a person who looked like a person, and there were many cavalry.
But these officers and soldiers are all shelf goods, and I heard that thousands of people called hundreds of Liao soldiers to defeat the army, and they have exhausted their living treasures. According to the friends of the green forest on the road in Shang County, now those thousands of officers and soldiers are all shrunk in Shang County, and they dare not fight with the Dongjiang soldiers at all.
Thinking of those officials and soldiers who came to fight the Beijing Division, Peng Dazhui suddenly had a thrill, and he remembered, aren't the officials and soldiers in the town all speaking with the accent of the Beijing Division? Could it be that these eggless people are the same as those officials and soldiers in Shang County, and they are all from Beijing?
If it is really from the Beijing Division, then eighty percent of the cavalry in the east are also from the capital. These people can't beat thousands of people and hundreds of people, what is there to be afraid of!
Combined with the bears of the officials and soldiers in the town, Peng Da Hammer became more and more sure, and the soldiers from the east must also be from Beijing.
Thinking of this, he decisively drew his knife and yelled at his subordinates who were still in a daze: "Thief mother, brothers, it's the official dog in the capital, a bunch of bears and eggs, and they can't defeat the rebels, but they want to bully us, damn, with them!" ”
"I with the official dog!"
A group of horse thieves have been robbing homes for many years, which one has not been stained with human blood, which one has no banditry, and when they heard that the big boss is going to do it with the official dog, and the official dog is still the soldiers and horses in Beijing that even the rebels can't beat, they are busy beating the horses and galloping over.
"Second brother, you and some people from the four seas took the woods in the south, and I took people to copy the north, and the official dog didn't come much, so don't be afraid of him!"
After the order, Peng Da Hammer shook the reins of the horse and was going to take people to the north, Qi Lao Er and Peng Sihai did not hesitate, and they wanted to take people to the woods when they heard the order.
As soon as the two of them beat their horses and were about to run forward, a few horses came out of the woods, and they could see through the moonlight who they were if they were not Du San who stayed in the east!
Du Sanyi, who was in a hurry to escape for his life and was scratched with blood by the branches, howled when he saw the big bosses: "The big bosses, the officers and soldiers are coming, the officers and soldiers are coming!" ”
"What about the brethren?!"
Seeing only a few Du San, Peng Dazhu's heart sank violently, knowing that the Tao was not good, and it seemed that the brothers in the east had been poisoned by the official dogs.
Du San cried while desperately beating the horse here: "It's all gone, it's all gone, the officers and soldiers are coming too fast, the guns are too ruthless, the brothers can't hold it, so they are all covered!" The small one is still running fast, otherwise he won't be able to see the big boss! ”
After hearing Du San's confirmation, Peng Dazhui whipped on the mount with hatred and scolded: "Damn, thief official dog, kill so many of my brothers, Lao Tzu will fight with you!" ”
Those who stayed in the east were all subordinates who had followed him for many years, and many of them were old neighbors in the village, who killed officials and rebelled with him back then, but now they all called the officers and soldiers to kill them at once, how could Peng Dazhui not be angry.
The horsewhip was whipped again, and he was going to fight with the officers and soldiers.
Qi Lao Er was a little hesitant, if the brothers in the east were still holding on, they would rush there, just to catch the officers and soldiers off guard, but now they would flee back to Du San and a few, and they would rush over again, with the remaining ninety people, I was afraid that they would not be able to bargain.
Besides, there are still hundreds of officers and soldiers in that town, although they are timid, but when the reinforcements of Zhilu Dao come, it is impossible to shrink back in the town and not come out. If this is combined with the officers and soldiers who come, it will be impossible to deal with it. At that time, I'm afraid that even whether I can get out of it will be a problem.
Thinking of this, he instinctively wanted to stop the big boss from taking risks, but before he could stop him, Peng Dazhui had already beaten his horse and rushed to the wheat field in the north.
Qi Lao Er was startled and blurted out: "The big boss can't be on!" ”
Before the words fell, I saw Peng Dazhu's horse suddenly jump up with both hooves, and even the people and horses stopped straight in mid-air
Although he reined in suddenly, Peng Dazhui, who was skilled in riding, still sat upright on the horse, and his body did not shake.
"Good horsemanship!"
Seeing the superb equestrian skills of the horse thief from a distance, Shi Dayong couldn't help but praise secretly, and immediately led his troops to rush over.
The terrain of Qiushui Town is flat, the road into the village passes from east to west, but the south side is a forest, the forest is not dense, and the side near the town is only tree roots, no tree trunks, which is obviously cut down by the villagers.
To the north is a wheat field, because the weather has not been beautiful in recent years, this wheat is sparsely planted, most of it is withered and yellow, and I don't know if there will be a harvest in the coming year.
Thanks to Xiao Cao's careful questioning, Shi Dayong knew the topography of the town, and also thought that since the Xiangma thieves could block the Beijing camp in the town, they were obviously blocking the avenues on both sides. The south side is not densely wooded, and it is not easy for people to escape, and the north side is a wheat field, as long as the head is not stupid, no matter how stupid people are, they will not choose to run there.
After a short discussion, Shi Dayong made a surprise attack on the east by Cao Bianjiao, and he led people from the wheat fields in the north to the west, taking advantage of the confusion of the horse thieves in the west to solve them in one fell swoop.
Shi Dayong is not Cao Cao, at this moment, he just wants to solve the horse thieves as soon as possible, rob their military horses to relieve the siege of Dengzhou, and naturally he will not be like Cao Cao who can't bear to spoil the people's crops. It's a big deal to keep some money down afterwards, and the right to compensate for the losses of those people
Under the moonlight, nearly 100 black figures came to meet them, and Peng Da Hammer, who was about to go to the wheat field, was startled and strangled the mount.
The officers and men were menacing, the wheat fields were empty, and although there were fields and ditches, they could not stop the officers and men from galloping on horseback.
Seeing that the officers and soldiers were about to run, Peng Dazhui subconsciously turned his horse's head and galloped back. As he ran, he shouted, "Run, run!" ”
The thieves didn't need to be reminded by the big boss, and they knew that they had to run, and the officers and soldiers were obviously coming at them, and the other party was running at high speed, if they caught up, they would be scattered in a round. At that time, they can only be slaughtered by these officers and soldiers.
As soon as the horse's head turned around, there were also officers and soldiers in the woods to the south, and dozens of war horses rushed out of the woods, just like Du Laosan and them, all of them were scraped by the branches. But these officers and soldiers didn't know it, and they only knew how to hit their horses and kill them.
Officers and soldiers rushed from the north and south sides at the same time, and the horse thieves suddenly panicked. Although the road under him runs through the two prefectures and counties, except for a section close to the county seat of the prefecture and county, which can run four carriages side by side, most of the rest of the sections are built according to the situation, some are wide, some are narrow, and the widest place can have several zhang, this narrowest place, but can only accommodate two carriages in parallel, and some places can only accommodate one carriage to pass through.
This section of Qiushui Town is better than the narrowest place, but it is not much better, it can only accommodate two carriages in parallel, and the horse thieves are fleeing at this time, such a narrow road naturally cannot accommodate nearly a hundred people running at the same time.
Those who are in front have not yet risen, and those who are behind have not been able to cross over.
The chasing soldiers behind him have been killed in an instant, and the horse thieves are in panic all day long, even Peng Dazhui has always been bold, and he can't help but be shocked into a cold sweat.
There are only two paths left for the Ringing Horse Thieves, either they wait for death on this road, or they quickly flee in both directions.
To the south, there are forests, and further south, there is a low hill, and as the mountain rises, the forest becomes denser and denser, and it is impossible to ride horses at all. In this dark night, I don't know the road ahead, there are pursuers behind, and running into the forest can only be a dead end.
To the north, there is a wheat field, and you can run wildly, but at the end of the wheat field is the clear water river that is several feet deep. Not to mention people, even horses can't get by!
North and south, both are dead ends, and there is only one road under your feet.
The Ringing Horse Thieves, without exception, all chose to run west, and this was their only way to live, at least, in their opinion.
The shouts of the officers and soldiers were behind them, but the people in front were still blocked, Peng Da Hammer was so anxious that he was sweating, and Qi Lao Er was even ready to swing a knife to kill the people in front of him, so as to take their horses and run.
Peng Sihai was anxious to protect his uncle, and when he saw that the officers and soldiers were catching up, he turned his heart sideways and shouted, "Uncle, you run quickly, my nephew will lead someone to block the official dog!" After shouting, he yelled at the horse thieves who were still grabbing the road and wanted to run: "You can't run horizontally and vertically, it's better to fight with the official dog!" ”
Hearing this, more than a dozen fierce horse thieves suddenly stopped, and one by one they showed a fierce light, and turned around with red eyes to fight with the official dog with Peng Sihai.
The rabbit is in a hurry and bites, the thief and the dog are going to be killed, and Lao Tzu will fight with you to break the net! Even if you die, I will pull you on your back!
Hearing his nephew's voice, Peng sledgehammer slammed the mount, he didn't run, he couldn't let the Peng family break off! If you want to die, you have to die yourself, and you have to pass incense to the Peng family if you keep your nephew!
Peng Dazhui has no son, just Peng Sihai's only nephew, if Peng Sihai is poisoned by officers and soldiers, his Peng family will be broken, and he Peng Dazhui has no face to see his dead parents and eldest brother.
"Sihai, uncle stays, you go!"
Peng Da Hammer hit the horse and rushed forward, the knife in his hand was raised high, and his vicious eyes stared straight at a masked officer and soldier general opposite.
"Uncle, nephew will die with you!"
Seeing that his uncle didn't run and the anti-Korean officials and soldiers killed him, Peng Sihai was also anxious, clamped his legs, and followed with a knife.
"Brothers, fight with the thief dog!"
The dozen or so fierce horse thieves also beat their horses and rushed towards the officers and soldiers.
