Chapter 67: It's a soft persimmon that hits! (Congratulations to the gods of the Alliance, thanks!) )
The wind is dashing, blowing the sparkling water.
Liu Chuang stood on a large rock and raised his eyes to look into the distance.
Behind him, Tai Shi Ci was making final preparations. I saw him take the lion by the hand, tighten the saddle belt, and then step on the stirrup and get on the horse.
"Childe's saddle is indeed exquisitely made."
Tai Shi Ci writhed a few times on his horse, and couldn't help but let out another admiration.
Liu Chuang has not been idle in Ruyin these days. He ordered people to make several sets of saddle stirrups and horseshoes, and matched them with Tai Shici, Xu Sheng, Ling Xiao and others. This thing can't be too popular...... Liu Chuang was very careful even when making zuò.
He jumped off the stone and let out a long breath.
"What's the matter, Li Tong's side, is there any news?"
"Li Tong's vanguard army has reached Rushui, but has not yet crossed the river.
This guy is a cautious man...... But I estimate that by the time it gets dark at the latest, his army will definitely arrive in the county seat of Ruyin. ”
"Very good!"
Liu Chuang said, and glanced at the cavalry lined up neatly in the forest.
This is almost all the family wealth he can take out now, a total of one hundred and eight people, including Pei Shao and Zhou Cang.
These one hundred and eight people also formed Liu Chuang's pro-army subordinates.
I vaguely remember that Dong Zhuo once had an elite army called the Flying Bear Army, which was the commander of Li Dao.
It is said that this elite is the elite that Dong Zhuo spent a lot of money to draw from the Xiliang Army, and merged a group of people to slaughter each other.
It's a pity that this Flying Bear Army didn't be surprised for long.
With Dong Zhuo being killed, the Flying Bear Army, under the leadership of Li Dao, soon fell apart and was no longer known.
Liu Chuang likes this name because his milk name also has the word 'bear' in it. In later generations, there will be more romances of the gods. said that Jiang Ziya was carrying a non-bear and was in charge of the gods. The bear was an extremely ferocious and special animal in the Eastern Han Dynasty.
So when forming this pro-army subordinate, Liu Chuang thought of the word 'flying bear'.
But there was a flying bear army in front of him, which made him quite unhappy.
So after thinking about it for a long time, he called this pro-army the 'Flying Bear Guard', although it was not as majestic as the Flying Bear Army, but it was the most suitable for the current scale. The Flying Bear Guard was divided into two teams, commanded by Zhou Cang and Pei Shao respectively. Comparable to the team.
Perhaps, in the future, this Flying Bear Guard will become the Flying Bear Army.
But Liu Chuang didn't want to expand rapidly, he needed to turn this Flying Bear Guard into a real soldier of a hundred battles.
I have a lot of ideas in my head, but unfortunately I don't have the opportunity to implement them.
Escape this catastrophe. If Yi Qiē can follow the rules, according to Bu Qi and Lu Dai's strategy, he can obtain a place to live. Only then will he really assemble the Flying Bear Guard. Otherwise, all one qiē can only be a pipe dream.
"Childe, Zi is here!"
Just when Liu Chuang was thinking wildly, he suddenly heard someone shouting loudly.
He hurriedly stepped forward. Take a look.
In the distance, a troop of soldiers and horses ran along the official road.
All of them looked disheveled, and many of them didn't even have weapons in their hands.
And the one left at the forefront is Xiao Ling.
He urged his horse to run. While looking back. Behind this team, smoke and dust billowed and a group of military horses was rapidly approaching, getting closer and closer.
Liu Chuang's face. Suddenly a bright smile appeared.
He beckoned to lead the horse, and then pulled the saddle and stirrup. Straddle the horse.
"It's coming!"
After he said softly, he turned his head to Tai Shi Ci and said, "Whether it can succeed or not, in one fell swoop...... Give way to the striker and cut off his waist. ”
"That's right!"
Xiao Ling and the others ran away from the wolf, and quickly passed in front of Liu Chuang and the others.
In about ten minutes or so, a cavalry roared by...... Further back, the infantry ran desperately, trying to catch up with the cavalry in front.
It's just that the formation of this army of soldiers and horses has been completely messed up when they are running.
Everyone was almost out of breath, and no one paid attention to the situation on the side of the road. In the middle of the line, there was a big 'Li' character written on it. Liu Chuang calculated the time and knew that it was almost over, and then urged the dragon, and the war horse suddenly stood upright with its hooves on its back, and let out a neighing like a dragon's roar.
"Kill me!"
Liu Chuang roared and rushed down the hillside first.
Tai Shici also urged the lion to skull, followed Liu Chuang, picked up his bow and arrows, and opened his bow and arrows while galloping on his horse.
He fired at an astonishing rate, one after the other.
Nearly five stone strong bows, almost six hundred catties of tension, one after another red stem white feather arrows whistling out, emitting a whistle sound that broke through the air.
Liu Chuang also holds a bow and shoots arrows, although his archery skills are not as accurate as Tai Shi Ci, but he can also do one arrow and one person, and the arrows are not missing...... In any case, he learned to shoot with Chang Sheng, and although he was bumpy and wandering, he never stopped practicing. Later, I met Tai Shici, a marksman, so I naturally humbly asked for advice. His archery skills, after being guided by Tai Shici, have also gradually matured.
Two people, two bows, two pots of arrows.
Rushing from the hillside to the official road, only a hundred and ten paces away, the two of them had already used up all the thirty arrows in the pot.
At this time, the two of them had already arrived in front of Yuan Shujun. I saw the two of them put away their strong bows, each with their weapons, and roared into the crowd. Under the leadership of Pei Shao and Zhou Cang, Flying Xiongwei also showed no weakness and rushed into the chaos. Yuan Shujun, who was originally chasing the enemy, did not expect to encounter an ambush at all, and immediately became a mess. Liu Chuang danced the dragon stick, and Tai Shici danced the crane and spear.
A stick, a gun, like entering a no-man's land.
And behind them, Zhou Cang danced a large guillotine knife nearly seven feet long, and the sword was flying up and down.
The spear in Pei Shao's hand was also like a dragon going out to sea, only killing rivers of blood. The Flying Bear Guards were all armed with spears and charged in the chaos of the army. Although the training time of these pro-army subordinates is not too long, under the leadership of the four main generals, they are extremely brave.
The rise of Liu Chuang's killing, the big stick whirring.
The overlord threw the stick one after another, although some Yuan Jun generals stepped forward to stop him, but he was beaten off the horse one by one.
The lethality of the coiling dragon stick may not be as amazing as that of a knife or gun.
However, Liu Chuang's strength is strong, and the coiling dragon stick is heavy.
Whoever was hit by Yuan Jun by him would not die with broken bones and tendons......
The chief general of the Yuan army. His name is Li Mao.
He was ordered to be a pioneer officer, but he knew that he was blocked by Xiao Ling on the road.
After the two clashed for more than ten rounds, Xiao Ling showed a look of exhaustion and fled with the people.
Li Mao, born in the Huainan clan, is young and vigorous, and his heart is arrogant.
After defecting to Yuan Shu, he was immediately reused with his family strength and became a captain of the first battalion. He was only twenty-one years old. became a lieutenant in the army, and he was naturally complacent. This time he came with Changnu, and Li Mao made up his mind to kill the generals and capture the flag and establish meritorious deeds.
So. How could he let Xiao Ling go.
In his opinion, Liu Chuang and the others are just a bunch of rogues, and there is no need for General Changnu to personally go out, he alone is enough to recapture Ruyin County. Therefore, Li Mao pursued Xiao Ling relentlessly, and the two thousand vanguard troops were completely disjointed because of his hard work.
was rushed by Liu Chuangtai Shi Ci. The soldiers and horses were in chaos.
Li Mao was chasing in front, and when he was about to catch up with Xiao Ling, he suddenly heard a big chaos in the rear.
He hurriedly reined in his horse and turned around to investigate.
A fast horse galloped in. Immediately, Hu Cong rolled down from the horse, walked a few steps quickly, knelt down on one knee and said, "Captain Qiqi, it's not good...... The thieves set up an ambush and attacked on the way, and the Chinese army was caught off guard. It has become a mess, please ask the captain to quickly raise troops to rescue. ”
Li Mao was furious. "Thief Kou An dares to deceive me!"
Without saying a word, he immediately turned the horse's head.
"Pass my orders and fight back with all your might!"
The cavalry turned around and walked backwards, and the formation, which had been chaotic due to the rapid march, suddenly became even more confused.
At this time, I heard a drum behind me.
After Xiao Ling converged the large group of men and horses in front, he immediately turned around and pursued.
In an instant, Yuan Jun was in a mess. The cavalry in front went back, and the foot soldiers in the back rushed forward. In addition, Xiao Ling was shot by such a horse, how could he not panic. At this time, Li Mao's order was useless, so he shouted loudly, trying to stabilize his position, but Xiao Ling had already rushed into Yuan's army...... At this time, Xiao Ling had no previous lack of support. People go down to the mountains and tigers, and horses are like dragons out of the sea. A big spear danced, and the Yuan army was defeated and retreated again and again, and no one could stop it......
Xiao Ling's martial arts are not bad, under Liu Chuang's account, although he can't be with Liu Yongtai Shi Ci, it is only under Liu Chuang and Guan Hai, and between Xu Sheng and Bozhong.
A person who dares to fight with Cheng Pu and survive, how can he be easy to match?
If it weren't for Liu Chuang's order, Xu was defeated but not won, Xiao Ling might have beheaded Li Mao a long time ago.
In his heart, he naturally held back a fire, so that Xiao Ling's shot became even more fierce. Li Mao stepped forward and wanted to stop Xiao Ling, but after only a few rounds, he was killed by Xiao Ling with crooked armor. If it weren't for Hu Cong's desperate rescue of him, I am afraid that he would have died in this chaotic army. However, Li Mao's bad luck is not over. finally escaped from the chaotic army, and met Liu Chuang head-on...... Liu Chuang didn't talk nonsense with him, and knocked Li Mao off the horse with a stick, and more than a dozen knife and axe men swarmed up, tied Li Mao's rope, and brought him back to the main formation directly.
"Hugh will kill me, I will surrender!"
Li Mao was so frightened that he shouted loudly.
Bu Qi and Huang Shao glanced at each other, and waved their hands to signal the sword and axe to step forward.
Seeing the bright big knife shaking in front of his eyes, Li Mao was frightened. The whole person is paralyzed on the ground, where is there still the high-spirited appearance before?
The knife is light, and the green silk falls off.
Bu Qiu had a satisfied smile on his face, watching as the knife and axe hand shaved off Li Mao's hair, and then cut off his ears and nose.
"Someone comes, send this person to Chang Nu, and say that it is a gift from Gongzi to him."
That Li Mao had already fainted in pain, and was put in a sack, so he went straight to the direction of Shen County.
By this time, the fighting had ceased.
Of the 2,000 soldiers and horses brought by Li Mao, 800 became Liu Chuang's prisoners and were escorted into the county town of Ruyin.
In addition to these 800 prisoners, Liu Chuang also obtained nearly 100 war horses and countless armor and armor in this battle. Looking at the rich loot, Liu Chuang couldn't help but feel extremely happy. After he and Bu Qi glanced at each other, he nodded towards Bu Qi, "Zishan, let's start the second step." ”
Bu Qi smiled and said, "This time, I'm afraid Ruyin is going to be lively!" ”
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
In the evening, Chang Nu received a 'gift' carefully prepared for him by Liu Chuang during the march.
Seeing Li Mao, whose face was covered with blood and unconscious, Chang Nu's mood can be imagined. Although Li Mao is not his close confidant. It is indeed a person that Yuan Shu values very much. The Li family behind it is a century-old family in Huainan and has a lot of influence. originally thought that I could use this opportunity to make friends with the Li family and get some benefits in the future...... But now, not to mention the benefits, to be able to obtain the Li family's forgiveness is a great creation.
What's more, Liu Chuang's behavior. Even more extreme humiliation of the slaves.
Killing people is not enough, this Liu Chuang deceives people too much!
In fact, Chang Nu is similar to Li Mao, and they don't take Liu Chuang very seriously.
Even if Liu Chuang defeated Li Mao, Chang Nu still didn't take Liu Chuang to heart. Opposite. Liu Chuang's actions completely angered Chang Nu.
"Pass my order, the three armies will speed up their actions, I want to step on Ruyin City and take that Liu Chuang's dog's head!"
With Chang Nu's order, Yuan Jun's speed of action suddenly accelerated.
Six thousand soldiers and horses rushed straight to Ruyin, after dark. I saw that the lights of Ruyin City were bright, and the city gate was wide open...... Chang Nu did not suspect that he had a plan, and ordered Yuan's army to immediately launch an attack on Ruyin. At the same time, Li Tong's vanguard army. It has reached the foot of Ruyin City.
Similarly, the north gate of Ruyin was wide open, and Cao Jun drove straight in.
The Yuan army entered from the south gate of Ruyin, after the two sides met in the city. They were all a little surprised.
When Liu Chuang attacked Li Mao during the day, he was wearing Cao Jun's armor. Therefore, when Yuan Jun saw Cao Jun. subconsciously regarded the other party as Liu Chuang's department. Therefore, the two sides immediately started a battle in the city, although the number of Cao's army was not superior, but Li Tong's army was well-governed, and the soldiers were willing to serve, so although the number was not superior, but they did not fall behind at all. On the Yuan side, it has the advantage of military strength. When Chang Nu heard that his soldiers and horses had an encounter with Liu Chuang's headquarters in the city of Ruyin County, he immediately ordered the whole army to attack and launch a fierce attack on Cao's army.
This battle lasted for nearly half an hour.
Although Cao's army was brave, Yuan's army was superior in numbers and attacked fiercely under the command of Chang Nu, so it was defeated and retreated, and suffered heavy casualties.
When Li Tong arrived with a large army, Cao's army had already been forced under the city gate.
With a breath of bravery, he held the city gate to the death.
"Why did the thieves get so many soldiers and horses?"
When Li Tong heard this, he was also taken aback, and hurriedly ordered a counterattack.
The two sides attacked in Ruyin County, and I fought for nearly half an hour. Until this time, Chang Nu and Li Tong both sensed that something was not quite right. According to the information they received, Liu Chuang's command was only more than 1,000 people, and even if some soldiers and horses were replenished after the occupation of Ruyin, it was only 2,000...... But looking at the opponent's strength, I am afraid that the number has already exceeded 2,000.
"Mingjin, Mingjin!"
Chang Nu finally didn't mess up, and immediately ordered Mingjin to withdraw his troops.
At the same time, Li Tong also ordered the soldiers and horses to stop the attack.
He personally led his followers, entered the city, and saw from a distance that Yuan's army was heavily guarded, firmly occupying the south gate of Ruyin County.
Looking at the other party's banner, Li Tong gasped.
"How is it Yuan Shu's people?"
He was guarding the western part of Runan, and he was no stranger to Yuan Shu's soldiers and horses, so he immediately urged his horse forward and asked loudly: "Dare to ask which general under Yuan Highway's account led the army?" ”
Chang Nu also led his troops to the city and met Li Tong.
"A certain family of slaves, and where are the soldiers and horses? Where are the thieves? ”
Li Tong shuddered, and immediately realized that he and Chang Nu were afraid that they had fallen for Liu Chuang's tricks.
So Li Tong hurriedly said: "A certain Li Tong, who is the general of Wei Zhonglang in Runan Town, came to exterminate the thieves on the order of Cao Gong, why did General Changnu come here?" ”
"Li Tong?"
Chang Nu looked stunned.
Li Tong is famous in the Jiangru area, and Chang Nu has naturally heard of his name.
Not only did he know, but even Yuan Shu had heard of it, and even sent someone to recruit him, but Li Tong politely refused at that time.
It's Cao Cao's people!
There is not harmony between Yuan Shu and Cao Cao, especially Yuan Shu was born in the family of the fourth and third dukes, and he is a son-in-law, even if it is Yuan Shao, he doesn't care about it. Although Cao Cao was born as an official eunuch, he was obviously a head lower than the old Yuan family, regardless of his background or net worth.
Therefore, after Cao Cao occupied Yuzhou, Yuan Shu has been eyeing Runan.
Although the two sides did not clash directly, the small friction never stopped.
"Li Tong, where is the thief?"
Chang Nu also knew that he had been fooled, but he was unwilling to admit it, so he quickly turned the topic to Liu Chuang.
Li Daodao: "A certain family has just arrived in Ruyin, and I didn't expect that the thief would not be seen, but there was a conflict with General Changnu...... The whereabouts of the thieves can be found by asking someone. Someone came, immediately looked for the three elders in the city, inquired about the whereabouts of the thief, and then quickly reported to me. ”
He ordered the search for Liu Chuang's whereabouts, and Chang Nu also ordered the search for Liu Chuang's whereabouts.
But now the question is, what to do with this Ruyin county?
The two sides fought fiercely in the county town of Ruyin for nearly an hour, with countless casualties.
In Ruyin County, because of this inexplicable battle, it has been greatly damaged, and many houses have been turned into ruins.
Li Channel: "General Changnu, this Ruyin County was originally under the rule of Cao Gong, and it was stolen by thieves before, but it is taken back today, and I also ask General Changnu to lead his troops to withdraw from Ruyin, so as not to cause conflicts." ”
Chang Nu folded hundreds of people, how could he be willing to give up Ruyin?
Just when the two were arguing, a soldier came to both sides with an old man.
"Uncle, do you know where the thief went?"
The old man was the lieutenant governor of Ruyin, and immediately said: "Back to the two generals, the Liukou evacuated Ruyin before it got dark and went to the east. ”
"Huh?"
Li Tong was stunned, "You mean, the thief has left?" ”
"Exactly!" The chief cried and complained: "When the rogues evacuated, they took all the grain from the city, leaving not a single grain of grain. The two generals, the people are anxious about this, and they don't know what to do, and they ask the two generals to help each other and help the people through this misfortune. ”
In other words, this Ruyin is now an empty city?
When Chang Nu heard this, he immediately said: "General Li, in the name of my lord, Chang Nu wants to capture the thief."
Now that the thieves have evacuated from Ruyin, I won't bother anymore. I will continue to pursue the thieves, and Ruyin City will be handed over to the general to deal with the aftermath. ”
Just kidding, how much grain and grass do the people of a county have to pay?
The benefits were not reaped, and a lot of grain and grass had to be paid...... Of course, Changnu did not want to continue to stay in Ruyin County.
Li Tong couldn't guess Chang Nu's thoughts, and he couldn't help but sneer in his heart.
However, he did not refuse, but arched his hand and said: "In this way, it will bother General Changnu." ”
"Send someone to Pingyu immediately, and ask the full pet Taishou to allocate grain and grass immediately.
Half of the grain and grass in the army will be distributed to the people in the city, and in two or three days at most, the grain and grass in Berning will be delivered, and it will be restored to normal in one qiē. ”
"General, why don't you pursue the thieves?"
Li Tong watched Yuan Jun, who had quickly evacuated Ruyin County, and the corners of his mouth curled slightly, "I and Berning both underestimated this tributary. Then Liu Chuang set up such a bureau for me to drill, how could he be an idle person? Cao Gong ordered me to recapture Ruyin, and now that Ruyin is in hand, let the slave go to test the thief's means first. ”
