Chapter 69: Killing the Thief
Yuncheng's baked cakes are not delicious, Yun Zheng took a bite and threw them down, the dead cakes are as hard as kraft candy, they can't be torn off with their teeth, and the young man's teeth can't deal with this kind of baked cakes, and the old Bao Zheng is particularly tragic when he tears this kind of baked cake with few teeth.
Yun Zheng, who really couldn't stand it, sighed and said: "A porridge and a meal were not easy to come by back then, and it makes sense to think about the difficulty of material resources at a glance, but it is not cost-effective to lose your teeth for this, you still eat some fish here, it tastes good, but the fishy smell is heavier, but at least it can ensure the safety of your teeth." ”
Lao Bao really couldn't deal with the baked cake in his hand, so he sighed and threw down the baked cake and said: "I think back then, when the old man was in his hometown in Luzhou, he liked to knock iron broad beans the most, but now he can't deal with a baked cake, it seems that it's time to say goodbye to the old man and return to his hometown." ”
A little Ersheng, who was more angry than General Yunlu and the prefect of Kaifeng Prefecture, glanced at the two earthen buns in front of him, took the baked cakes from the table, took out a knife and chopped the cakes in three or two strokes, and then poured them into the fish soup, signaling the two earthen buns to use slowly.
Bao Zheng glanced at Yun Zheng and said, "It seems that this cake is not eaten with teeth?" ”
Xiao Er interjected on the side: "Two guest officers, this is the signature dish of the shop, called "Fish Cake", when eating, chop it with a knife, and then soak it in fish soup to soften, the cake is full of fish soup, the most delicious ......"
Yun Zheng stared at Xiao Er angrily, eager to kill this guy, if today's scandal spreads, his reputation as a pseudo-gourmand will be gone.
Xiao Er couldn't stand General Yun's terrifying aura, and bowed down.
Bao Zheng took a small piece of soaked soft cake, stuffed it in his mouth, took a bite and said, "It tastes really good." In fact, the truth in this world is all figured out, just like this cake, you can't bite it for a while, take the fish soup to bubble, and you can eat it very easily.
Yunhou, the old man is still behind you, what is the purpose of driving the bandits in Shandong to the sky and the earth? When the old man passed through the state mansion all the way, when he saw the heads of thieves hanging on the city gate in those state capitals, he knew that Yunhou had made a lot of money from this hunt, but he didn't know why Baiyunhou drove all the remaining bandits to the motor, where Zhang Qing went?
Others are trying to divide and annihilate bandits. Does Yunhou want to finish his work in one battle? ”
Yun Zheng also ate a piece of cake. The fishy smell made people vomit, so I quickly spit it out and rinsed my mouth with water, and then said: "Divide and annihilate it, that's a sign of weak strength, I gathered all the thieves together, because I was worried that those thieves wouldn't die." According to the law of the Great Song Dynasty. There is a distinction between thieves and thieves. Those who are cut and those who are served.
It is said that the thief's heart does not change, and the exile of these people to the army is an unstable factor. So let them gather at the motor, and all Zhang Qing's subordinates will become traitors, so that they will have no scruples about killing! ”
Bao Zheng was stunned for a moment and hurriedly said, "Could it be that those rumors are true?" The general's murderous intent can't be suppressed, and he has to kill every once in a while, and this counterinsurgency is just to vent his murderous **? ”
Yun Zheng nodded irritably and said: "That's true, when I was a teenager, I was determined to be thirsty for the blood of the Huns and hungry for Hulutou, but now there is no war in the four realms of the Great Song Dynasty, it's really annoying!" You can only practice with these traitors. ”
Bao Zheng pondered the tone of his speech, and then said slowly: "But Zou Cheng has gathered no less than 2,000 bandits now, how can the general kill them in one drum?" ”
"Tomorrow's siege, you just have to watch the battle from behind!" Yun Zheng slapped the table, and Wei Ling was full of joy.
Zou Cheng was known as "Zou Lu Holy Land" in ancient times, and is located in the southeast of Shandong. There are outstanding people here, heroes and sages, there are three generations of good mothers who choose neighbors and teach their children, and there are Confucian Yasheng Mencius who is praised as "merit is not under Yu......
A good city has now become a miasma, more than 200 bandits in this small city rape and plunder all kinds of evil, Mada, the four generals under the command of Zhang Qing, but also with those rebellious soldiers under the slogan of equal wealth and poverty, all the rich families in Zou City were killed, forced those poor families to take away the food and utensils of the rich households, ready to tie the people of the whole city to their chariots, such a method is necessary after every rebellion, this trick has proved to be very useful.
Motor, Zhang Qing's comfortable days did not last long, countless bandits came to Zou Cheng to ask to join the rebellion team, at the beginning, they thought that this was a sign that their great event was about to be accomplished, and began to increase the number of bandits entering the city, but the heart of Motor and Zhang Qing was constantly sinking, for no other reason, just because those thieves were brought over by Yun Zheng.
As a forbidden army and a motor, how could Zhang Qing not know who Yun Zheng was, they never imagined that they would fight against this legendary killer demon king at the beginning of the incident......
Ma Da stood on the top of the city wall, looking at the cavalry that kept appearing in the field outside the city, worried, those wolf-like cavalry, in the shortest possible time has been cleared of the sentinels they sent outside the city, the outside of the city is full of the corpses of those thieves who were dragged alive by the war horses in the spring emitted a strong putrid smell, now, no bandit dared to step out of Zou Cheng.
"We're dead, big brother! The Murder King is going to lock Zou Cheng and not allow us to go out of the city. Zhang Qing has long lost the bravery that he showed when he got into trouble, and his red eyes, messy head, and mouth full of wine prove that his spirit has collapsed.
Seeing Zhang Qing coming, Ma Ma patted Zhang Qing's shoulder with a smile and said, "Can the wife and daughter of the county still satisfy you?" ”
Zhang Qing cracked his mouth and smiled: "It's worth it, Lao Tzu is a cheap life, even if he dies here, it's worth it." ”
Ma Ma nodded and said: "What we are doing is a head-killing business, I thought we would be recruited, but now that the Cloud Demon King is here, don't think about the wealth in the future, I just looked carefully, there are many cavalry in the south, west and north of Zou Cheng, but there are only a few horses in the east, even if the Cloud Demon King is powerful, he only has two hundred people on hand There is no way to lock Zou Cheng, this is our way of life." ”
Zhang Qing was shocked: "To the east is Xianyuan County, although the people of the Kong family are highly respected, they are a hollow boss without soldiers. It's just that once we attack Xianyuan County, there will be no way back. ”
Mada, who was in his thirties, looked at the young Zhang Qing and said with a smile: "Anyway, there is no way to live, it is better to fight, do you not plan to taste what it is like to be a woman of the Kong family?" ”
Zhang Qingyi raised his arm, threw the wine jar far away, beat his chest and said to the motor: "Big brother, what kind of charter should you speak, brother must listen to your ......"
Just as Zhang Qing was arranging an escape route, he heard a low horn sound outside the city, and more than 200 cavalry lined up and slowly approached Zou Cheng. There is no routine persuasion. There was no customary scolding formation, the cavalry in black armor just took out his hand crossbow, pressed the crossbow arrow into the trench and put the crossbow string, and the war horse advanced twenty paces. All combat readiness has been completed.
Yun Zheng and Lao Bao stood on a small hill. Just a cold look.
Shouts and curses rang out one after another from the top of the city. The cavalry was increasing, and the formation changed from a straight line just now to a huge arc, and the oblique spur rushed towards the city gate due north.
The cavalry siege is a joke. However, Lao Bao still believes in Yun Zheng's military literacy, when he saw the horse team passing through the city gate, the crossbow arrows continued to shoot at the city head, those cavalry shot very accurately, and very regular, after blocking a few scattered arrows flying out of the city head, there were constantly crossbow arrows planted from the city head by bandits, and the large shield platoon made of two door panels appeared on the city head was destroyed by the armor-piercing cone with gunpowder at the first time.
Bao Zheng was surprised to see that five people in the cavalry team jumped off their horses and waved their arms and shields to block the ash bottles and other things thrown from the city, put five neat bundles of two feet square in the hole of the city gate, lit the long lead with a fire fold, and then rode on their horses to join the horse team that kept throwing crossbow arrows.
This time, when the horses had finished shooting their crossbows, they left the city gate far away, lined up three hundred paces away, withdrew their crossbows, drew their own horses, or broadswords, or spears, and stood there quietly waiting.
With a thunderclap, Bao Zheng saw with his own eyes that the two strong city gates became torn apart, and then the position of the city gate was shrouded in smoke and fire, and those cavalry did not care about the debris flying in the sky, urging the war horses to kill towards the city gate like a violent wind.
Yun Zheng retracted and stretched the old man's neck, and said to Bao Zheng with a smile: "The city is broken!" ”
Bao Zheng looked at the cavalry rushing in and asked Yun Zheng: "It's that simple?" ”
Yun Zheng smiled: "How difficult do you think? A few forbidden troops plus some bandits, the use of gunpowder is actually very excessive. Bao Gong, let's go into the city, you still have a lot of things to do, this city must be ruined by those people. You are responsible for the security of the people, and I am responsible for the killing. Yun Zheng said and took out the sword in his waist and licked the edge of the sword greedily, as if he could no longer restrain his murderous **.
Bao Zheng shuddered, grabbed Yun Zheng's armor and said, "You are the boss, don't do these things yourself." ”
Yun Zheng glanced at the well-behaved magistrates who were around Lao Bao like quails and said: "One hundred and ten traitors, let you be afraid of becoming like this, if you pay attention to the local regimental training and the army on weekdays, there will be no one hundred or ten people occupying a city, and after a while, I hope you can still maintain your heart as a gentleman who is as warm as jade." ”
After speaking, he broke free from Lao Bao's hand, stepped on the war horse and ran towards the city gate accompanied by the monkey.
Bao Zheng hurriedly got into his carriage and urged the scared coachman to chase Yun Zheng in the carriage.
As soon as he entered the city gate, Bao Zheng felt dizzy, there were no living people here, there were headless corpses everywhere, the rules of the Jiazi Battalion were only considered dead people if the enemy cut off his head, this rule Yun Zheng had said to Bao Zheng before.
Even if Bao Zheng is sophisticated, he is still trembling in the face of such a slaughter scene, which has nothing to do with courage, only with temperament, those magistrates who are almost scared to death can only mechanically follow Bao Zheng to the city surrounded by fast hunting.
The group carefully bypassed the heads of people rolling all over the place and walked to the county office, only to arrive here that the battle was still going on, those samurai in black armor, had already dismounted their horses, and a group of five people had been scattered in every corner of the city to fight, everywhere there were screams, everywhere there was the sound of blades clashing, and of course, there were countless people kneeling on the ground begging for mercy.
Bao Zheng watched as those black-armored people cut off the ranks of those who surrendered on their knees without hesitation, as if he didn't have any intention of capturing some of the bandits alive to ask for credit.
Yun Zheng stood in the middle of the street with the long sword in his hand, less than ten steps away from him, more than a dozen of his own generals were fighting with more than thirty bandits, these people surrendered on their knees at first, and then they would be beheaded if they surrendered now, so they were red-eyed and desperate.
Two gunpowder bullets were thrown into the crowd, and after the smoke passed, the bandits there were bleeding from their ears, and their mouths kept screaming words that they couldn't understand, like headless flies.
Bao Zheng walked to Yun Zheng's side in fear, and before he could open his mouth to speak, a bandit with a face covered in black ash and an eye hanging outside tried to stretch out a hand to him, and his back had been slashed three or four times, and he couldn't live.
Bao Zheng habitually wanted to pull his hand, but a flying claw had already flown over, tightly clasped the bandit's neck, and dragged him back alive, and the other black-armored man chopped off the bandit's level with a knife. (To be continued......)
