Chapter 710: Only Two
In front of him is Zhao Jin's lair, can this kind of tyrant still be able to compete with us? He thought to himself.
At this moment, a breeze suddenly arose, the wind gently stirred the small flag on the spear, the flag waved in the wind slapped the flagpole, the cavalry still marched forward at a neat pace, and the dazzling light on the armor from time to time set off their tiger and tiger even more vigorously.
Ma Chonghao suddenly felt an indescribable pride in his heart.
To be able to have such a military strength, what else do you want in this life?
Then, he raised his hand, raised his horsewhip and shook his front finger, "Everyone listens to Zhao Jin rampant in the township, and the house has long been full of gold and silver treasures, everyone hurry up and work hard as long as the Zhao family is flattened, and when the time comes, everyone will be free for three days, and Lao Tzu will ignore it."
"Good"
"Take down Zhao Jin"
Among the cavalrymen, the cheers grew higher and stronger, until they finally converged into a deafening roar. These shouts converged to form a deafening shout, driving away the last trace of anxiety that the officers and soldiers had after arriving in a strange land.
However, although he felt that this was a must-win battle, Ma Chonghao still commanded the troops cautiously. Under his guidance, all the people and horses acted together, and Ma Chonghao and the leaders of the various groups were behind the Jinyi Guard Horse Team, while marching, paying attention to the surrounding situation, ready to deal with sudden situations at any time. The scattered cavalry that followed them peeking at them, of course, they also noticed.
"My lord, do you want to send someone to sweep these spies?" Someone went over to inquire about it.
"No need, our brigade is not here to fight, but to handle cases, just destroy the withering and decay and take down Zhao Jin in one fell swoop, there is no need to entangle with such miscellaneous pieces." Ma Chonghao came to a conclusion. "If they divide the soldiers and horses to stay here, and it won't be much good to win Zhao Jin's points later, how can they be convinced? Leave them alone, just keep going. ”
As soon as he said this, he was immediately approved by the other leaders. Although each side has its own ideas along the way, it is already used to listening to Ma Chonghao's command in the operation, although this is an internal guard, he is not ambiguous about the marching formation, besides, there is no battle on this way to the north and west, just normal action. Can Zhao Jin's gang still compete with such an army?
However, for the cavalry below, marching in such a hot day is not a good errand. The red flying fish suit with a cloak looked majestic, but in this hot weather, it was a weapon of sweat, and he was wearing sweat all over his body, not to mention the non-stop march. Mixed with the dust raised on it, the exposed face is a flower.
Even if the others are not as neatly dressed as the brocade guards, they are not too much, because the boss has a strict order, they must be fully dressed, showing the majesty and majesty of the official army, and they have to take care of it in advance, there is cold boiled water with salt in the gourd, and everyone has a heatstroke medicine, otherwise I am afraid that there will be heat stroke on the way. But even so, there are many people who feel uncomfortable, and there are already horses that have fallen on the road. If there is no incentive to "win Zhao Jin's money and divide women" along the way, I am afraid that there will be more people who can't hold on.
Ma Chonghao was naturally uncomfortable, but his face was full of excitement now, he thought that he was going to start fighting when he entered Xuzhou, but he didn't expect it to be so smooth. However, of course, he knew that the more smooth he was now, the more he should act safely, and he should not give Zhao Jin any opportunity to take advantage of. He also saw the fatigue of everyone after marching for so long, so he planned to stop and rest first.
"Everyone work hard, there are too many variables in this Xuzhou City, and it is easy for our cavalry to be plotted when they go in, more than ten miles west of this Xuzhou City, there is a manor of Yunshan Temple, we will requisition it directly, and then camp there to rest" Ma Chonghao said loudly.
There was a weak response around him, but Ma Chonghao raised his voice and shouted: "Brothers, we are about to take Zhao Jin, and we are about to make a fortune."
Sure enough, as usual, the crowd was so excited that they almost howled in reply, and then they had the spirit to continue marching.
Nearly 2,000 elite cavalry drove over, and they deliberately showed their momentum, which had indeed shaken the entire Xuzhou. Although they did not enter the state city, many people were still shocked, and many people returned to the city to publicize after seeing this military situation along the way, so now the people in the state city are already panicking. However, there are also many people who applaud Zhao Jin's doom is coming.
The manor designated by Ma Chonghao as a camp was originally the Zhuangzi of Yunshan Temple, and after Zhao Jin took Yunshan Temple, this Zhuangzi bowed his head early, so it has been put like this without major changes, just changed the master who paid contributions. There was not even any family training stationed in it, and there was no resettlement of displaced people
Naturally, there is no resistance in such a place, and the leaders of the village saw the arrival of such a large group of cavalry, where did they dare to say more, so they had to obediently open the gate and invite the military masters in.
After two days of hard work, the cavalry of all walks of life were finally able to rest for a while, but after all, this place was still within the enemy's territory, and of course they could not rest as easily as they did in other places. When they dismounted and rectified, the leaders of each family shouted and arranged, appointed sentinels, and appointed people to patrol the surroundings.
Although it is only three hours away from Hejiazhuang, it is very close to Hejiazhuang whether it is here or there. However, the night was quiet, there were no people who came to disturb them, and even the number of detectives and spies was much less. They were still hanging in the distance, God knows if it was a passing by or a spy.
After it got dark, the cavalry arranged by Ma Chonghao around the manor really caught someone, but this person was not Zhao Jin's spy, but a messenger sent by Zhizhou Tong Huaizu.
"If the Lord captures Zhao Jin's traitor, the lower officials will fully cooperate"
This messenger only brought such a message, not even something on paper, and Ma Chonghao, who was in a good mood, also had a gloomy face, because this message also has a mystery, if it can't be captured, then don't say anything.
The dignity of a dignified mansion, in other realms, it is a figure like a god, but under Zhao Jin's obscenity, he actually cowered into this, and now the imperial army is coming over, and he doesn't dare to express his position openly, isn't this official more aggrieved than a dog? Ma Chonghao secretly sighed in his heart.
From Nanjing, cross the river to Yangzhou and then go north to Qingjiangpu and then all the way north, those forces who had surrendered to Zhao Jin along the way, saw these thousands of elite cavalry, and knew that after Jinyiwei captured the anti-thieves, they were all openly and secretly currying favor, obediently sending gold and silver women, talking about the distribution of fertilizer in the future, where would they dare to have other thoughts?
It is said that this Xuzhou Zhizhou, should know how many benefits this Zhao Jin has, looking at the general trend is determined, he should come over to talk about it in detail, but he turned out to be so salty and indifferent, there is nothing else, not even a kind word to let the brigade enter the city, let alone supply anything.
Is this Xuzhou still a big tomorrow? In this kind of situation, even Ma Chonghao, who has always been in love, has become gloomy, but he is only ruthless in his heart, and when Lao Tzu takes Zhao Jin, he must sue you for being a thief in Zhizhou, what is it if this is not a thief? At that time, don't say that this dog official can't keep his official position, and he doesn't have to think about his family property or anything, and everyone will even share his share.
Listening to this messenger, it turned out that the messenger sent by Zhizhou Tong Huaizu was not even put down from the city with a bamboo basket after dark, but sneaked out of the city before the city gate was closed, and had been hiding nearby, and only dared to come over after dark, and sent him away Fanzi deliberately asked the reason, and the answer was very simple, to get down from the city, Zhao Jin would inevitably know who knew the state of Xuzhou City?
What made Ma Chonghao and the leaders of the various teams even more depressed was that except for the envoy sent by Zhizhou, no one else came, obviously the cavalry around Zhuangzi was heavily guarded, and there would be no Zhao Jin's subordinates coming to keep an eye on him, but no one came, are the local tyrants deaf and blind? Isn't it normal for them to run over to the army? Why did you come to Xuzhou with such a big momentum, but there was no reaction everywhere?
However, in the middle of the night, even the frightened farmers were asleep, but a sentry came to report to Ma Chonghao and others, saying that someone asked to see him, which finally lifted the spirit of the leader of Yiyu.
But when the people who asked to see them came running, their hearts sank again. It turned out that this man they had already met in the daytime, was the steward of the manor. As soon as he saw these officials, the steward immediately knelt down and kowtowed, and swore an oath on his chest, saying that he had long been committed to the court, but he was afraid of Zhao Jin's obscenity, so he had been lurking here with humiliation and burden, just waiting for the clouds to see the blue sky.
He also said that his former master and ancestor were all eminent monks, compassionate and caring, but they were murdered by the thief Zhao Jin, and he could only bow down and save his useful body until today.
These things he said, to be honest, these leaders don't care too much, who cares about those bald donkeys in your Yunshan Temple? But the steward's next words whetted the appetite of these people.
The steward patted his chest and said, as long as the imperial army takes Zhao Jin and the general situation is settled, he can take these leaders to dig up the treasures in the Yunshan Temple, the location of these treasures, and the properties that Yunshan Temple is now hiding in various places, he knows it all, and leads all the lords to accept it, he only needs this manor outside the city and the two Zhuangzi in the east.
Everyone pinched their noses and listened to this person's refuge, everyone knew that this was a man who saw the wind and steered the rudder, but he just looked at the majesty of the current imperial army and wanted to get a piece of the pie from it. He couldn't do what he said in his mouth, but it was always good for someone to say it at the moment, so he said a few words to make this happy busy.
