"Gan Cunxiao escaped, wait for the white sail water thief to listen, quickly open the gate of the water village and welcome us inside" Zheng Bao dispelled all his thoughts and yelled at the top of his throat.

Gao Zhiyuan, who was standing on the women's wall, was unmoved, as if he was watching a clown jumping beam.

With the help of the firelight, quickly count the soldiers and evil wave thieves around Zheng Bao.

Seeing that the number was only about five hundred, his heart was immediately settled.

Zheng Bao's face sank, and he shouted loudly: "Do you want to disobey?" ”

"Go back, this is not the place you should be," Gao Zhiyuan said loudly, his tone unquestionable.

The anger in Zheng Bao's heart skyrocketed instantly, and he pointed the sword in his hand forward: "The emptiness of the water village actually dares to resist"

"Pass the order, and kill all of them after capturing this village," Zheng Bao shouted, trying to hide the ominousness in his heart.

Hundreds of Zheng family soldiers shouted in unison: "Kill, don't leave a single one"

Then he took a step forward and rushed to the gate of the water village.

Gao Zhiyuan saw that the corners of the mouths of the nearly five hundred soldiers below him flashed with confidence.

"Shoot the Arrow"

A white-sailed water thief pointed his bow and crossbow downwards and then attacked.

Woohoo......

A rain of arrows whistled down.

Hundreds of Zheng family soldiers burst out of a barrage of damage points above their heads.

Looking ahead, Gao Zhiyuan raised his arm.

The gate of the water village was opened, and two hundred first-order white-sailed water thieves rode up on war horses.

Zheng Bao's face sank, he couldn't imagine that Baifan Water Village was so arrogant, and he had to take the initiative to attack even though his troops were insufficient.

But if they seek death, it will fulfill them.

The war horse let out a neighing roar and crashed into it with dozens of soldiers behind it.

Stomp ......

The sound of dense horses' hooves sounded from the rear, and a Zheng family soldier shouted at the top of his voice: "The head of the family, the soldiers and horses left behind in the Evil Wave Water Village, have defected."

"What?" Zheng Bao couldn't help but be startled, and his expression was a little flustered.

Flags whistling in the wind at night, whistling from the north.

Gao Zhiyuan took the opportunity to shout: "Reinforcements have arrived"

"Kill" 200 white sail thieves in unison.

The Zheng family soldiers hurriedly turned around and looked north, and couldn't help but be shocked.

In front of it, there was a white sail water village that could not be taken, and there was a huge enemy army that did not know the specific number in the back. Once a flanking attack is formed, how can it resist under the cover of night?

"What should we do with the head of the house?" A soldier asked Zheng Bao.

Zheng Bao came back to his senses from the stunned crowd and gritted his teeth fiercely: "Withdraw, withdraw from the mouth of the wet beard and think about it in the long run"

"No," the soldier shouted his order.

Dozens of family soldiers behind Zheng Bao shouted in unison: "The head of the family has an order, withdraw to the mouth of the beard"

All the Zheng family soldiers also came to their senses one after another, and hurriedly ran wildly.

However, it was too late.

The evil wave descending army roaring from the north had arrived, and Jia Nian led more than 300 soldiers and horses to wear a pair of battles.

The place was in chaos, and with the fact that it was night, countless Zheng family soldiers fell into a panic.

"Withdraw"

Seeing this, Zheng Bao was anxious, and shouted at the top of his voice with dozens of family soldiers.

The sound was muffled by the sound of the sword soldiers, and it lost the effect it was supposed to have.

"Please evacuate quickly," one of the soldiers yelled.

Dozens of family soldiers urged in unison: "Please evacuate quickly"

"Go" Zheng Bao took a deep look at the soldiers who were in a daze, endured grief and turned around, and ran all the way with dozens of family soldiers.

Just after Zheng Bao left, a huge voice resounded here.

"The mayor of the town has an order, and those who descend will not be killed"

The sound spread in all directions, followed by the sound of weapons falling to the ground.

The torches illuminated the front of the water village as if it were daylight, and a soldier named Zheng fell to his knees.

Jia Nian walked towards the soldiers surrounded by all the white sail thieves and the soldiers of Changhe Town, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"Greetings to the lord" at the gate of the water village, Gao Zhiyuan drank.

All the white sail thieves shouted in unison: "Welcome to the mayor"

The five hundred soldiers were shocked and hurriedly lowered their heads.

"Collect your weapons and press them into the water village," Jia Nian commanded loudly.

The white sail thieves shouted: "No"

Then he walked towards the Zheng family soldiers who knelt on the ground.

"My lord, do you need to pursue?" Gao Zhiyuan walked towards Jia Nian and proposed to him.

Jia Nian thought for a while: "Yanqing"

"In" Tang Yanqing drank.

Jia Nian instructed: "You lead the headquarters and a hundred white sail thieves and a hundred evil wave thieves to follow all the way, if Guo Dapang succeeds, return immediately, otherwise he will help."

"No," Tang Yanqing yelled.

Then with a wave of his hand, he took more than 200 people, turned over and galloped away.

Looking at the backs of more than 200 people who were far away, Gao Zhiyuan smiled heartily: "Lord, the general trend has been decided"

"Thanks to your plan" Jia Nian turned over and dismounted, sighing at Gao Zhiyuan.

Gao Zhiyuan saluted solemnly: "This is all the lord Hongfu, and his subordinates just put forward some trivial opinions."

"Why be so humble" Jia Nian said: "If you hadn't mentioned it on the side, how would I have known that these Zheng family soldiers surrendered so easily"

"It's all Zheng Bao's own doing," Gao Zhiyuan explained.

Jia Nian's mood was happy: "Hiding soldiers and thieves seems to be a wonderful strategy, but I don't want to lose the righteousness and the hearts of the people."

"If they have a good day, they will be invincible. But once they suffered a setback, more than a thousand thieves scattered in a hurry, and there was no loyalty at all," Jia Nian said.

Then a pride rose in his heart: "What's the use of such a thief?" ”

This may also be one of the reasons for Zheng Bao's failure in history.

Otherwise, how could Liu Ye accomplish such a feat with the strength of one person.

I secretly warned in my heart that Zheng Bao's mistakes must not be repeated in his own body.

It is the regular army that is in the hands, not the thieves.

"Dare to ask the lord, can more than a thousand people be able to afford it with the power of the Zheng clan in Chaoxian County?" Gao Zhiyuan asked suddenly.

Jia Nian was dumbfounded.

There were only one hundred and fifty soldiers in Changhe Town, and half of them were surrendered water thieves.

But even so, the consumption of these soldiers made Changhe Town chok.

If you raise thousands of people, the consumption will inevitably be like mountains and seas.

"An ordinary soldier's living expenses for a year are 8,000 yuan, and his living expenses are about 4,000 yuan. The funeral expenses of ordinary soldiers are about 3,000 yuan, and the general's pension ranges from 10 gold or 60 gold, plus the purchase of war horses, armor, weapons, ......"

Gao Zhiyuan said slowly, and then changed the conversation: "But if they become water thieves, they only need to consume a very small amount of wealth and raise those big and small bosses, and they can get a thief army." Therefore, what Zheng Bao did was nothing to blame, but he was just clever and mistaken by cleverness."

"You're going to let me keep raising thieves?" Jia Nian asked.

Gao Zhiyuan nodded: "Raise a thief army, such as the Yellow Turban Army"

"Guo Da Fat?" Jia Nian said.

Gao Zhiyuan explained: "Now the lord occupies Chaohu Lake, although the land of Chaohu Lake is fertile, it is the limit to raise thousands of soldiers."

"Therefore, it is better to raise thieves in the mouth of the mustache," Gao Zhiyuan said with a pun.

Jia Nian thought slowly: "Let Guo Da Fat raise thieves"

His heart beat violently, and Jia Nian fell into deep thought.
