Chapter 100: Undercurrents are surging
The clouds were thick and the sky was overcast.
On the city wall, Qin Huaidao stood still, staring at the front with a pair of tiger eyes, without blinking, a little worried in his heart, and he didn't know if the imperial court knew everything that happened here, and had already sent troops over, if not, only these people in Zhaojia Village could hold it?
"What are you thinking?" Cheng Chumo came over.
"I'm wondering if the Imperial Court knows what's going on here."
"Then you must know that reinforcements must be on the way."
Qin Huaidao was a little surprised: "Why are you so sure?" ”
"Don't worry, the saint's intelligence ability is not bad, I can't say specifically." Cheng Chumo replied in a low voice.
Qin Huaidao nodded knowingly, and didn't ask any more, since Cheng Chumo said that he would come, he would definitely come back, and he was relieved in his heart, and said with a smile: "In this way, it is enough to hold for half a day, and according to the speed and distance, the imperial army can arrive at noon at most." ”
"Then it depends on the determination of the Taiyuan Wang family." Cheng Chumo turned around, looked at Zhaojiacun in the ravine and added: "I inquired just now, there are about three hundred young people who can fight, and nearly a hundred people have been killed, these people are really, they shouldn't have died, hey, I just hope that I won't hesitate to fight again." ”
"Don't talk about this, it will affect the morale of the military." Qin Huaidao reminded him, saw Zhao Shuwen coming over, and asked, "Can you tell this official now, where is Wang Tongbiao training the private army?" ”
"Shaohua Mountain."
Qin Huaidao suddenly said: "It's actually Shaohua Mountain, which is not far away, no wonder it came so quickly." ”
"It's a pity that the account books and vouchers were taken away by them, and there is no physical evidence, so it is difficult to convict on the basis of only one side." Zhao Shuwen said a little helplessly, thinking of the tragic death of the woman and child, his heart hurt even more, hatred surged in his heart, and said in a deep voice: "My lord, as long as I can take revenge, let me do anything." ”
"Just bite them to rebel, the court will not let them go without physical evidence, if you don't defeat the Taiyuan Wang clan this time, Zhaojiacun may not survive." Qin Huaidao said coldly.
Zhao Shuwen still understands the truth that if you don't die, you will suffer from it, and nodded silently.
Not long after, the villagers sent barbecue, just now a battle killed some horses, Zhaojia Village didn't know how to receive everyone, simply roasted horse meat, the taste is average, but it can be satisfying.
After eating some casually, Qin Huaidao lost his appetite and asked Zhao Shuwen about the Wang family, but unfortunately Zhao Shuwen didn't know much, and basically acted according to orders, because he was recommended by the Wang family to enter the court and became a county order, and he was grateful in his heart, so he obeyed everywhere, and would rather die on his back, if it wasn't for the Wang family's absolute, unkind first, Zhao Shuwen might not betray.
One cause and one effect, who can tell?
At noon, the roar of horses' hooves rang through the sky, and the earth seemed to shake.
Everyone suddenly became nervous, and they all raised their eyes to look into the distance, only to see dust flying.
A moment later, a huge cavalry appeared on the hillside in the distance, all over the mountain, roaring, like a flood rolling, the waves of the sea, instantly flooding the entire hillside.
Banner hunting, war horses neighing!
The armor reflects the sunlight and is particularly eye-catching.
Qin Huaidao's face changed, this requires two or three thousand people, right?
The others' faces also changed drastically, staring at the front without saying a word.
Not long after, the cavalry rushed into the woods, the roar of the horses' hooves was deafening, everyone in Zhaojia Village turned pale and panicked, but Qin Huaidao was not afraid, they were all cavalry, what were they afraid of without the tools to climb the wall? Is it possible to hit a wall with a horse? I really can't beat the back mountain and run, so I shouted: "Don't panic, hold steady, listen to my command!" ”
The sound was loud and heard all around.
Everyone's hearts were inexplicably relieved, and they looked over one after another.
At this time, Cheng Chumo shouted: "Hahaha, it's the army of the imperial court, don't be afraid, it's the army of the imperial court." ”
"Are you sure?" Qin Huaidao looked at the rushing army again.
The army is slowing down, the momentum is strong, the armor is tight, but there is no killing intent, the first person is a veteran, Qin Huaidao suddenly thought of a person, and laughed: "Haha, General Xu, what a great majesty!" ”
"Stinky boy, where are you guys playing?" The general scolded with a smile, revealing a bit of cordiality, it was Xu Shiji, the newly appointed general of Zuo Wuwei, and the commander of the Hundred Cavalry Division.
"I didn't expect you to come here in person, it's hard work, and I'll open the door for you at the end!" Cheng Chumo shouted excitedly and ran down.
"Let's all go and help." Qin Huaidao looked at the others, everyone nodded and ran down to open the door, while Qin Huaidao looked at Zhao Shuwen: "Pacify your people, don't mess around and cause misunderstandings." ”
"Understood." Zhao Shuwen hurried to appease the clansmen.
Qin Huaidao also rushed down the steps, came to the door, and after waiting for the suspension bridge to be slowly lowered, he walked out quickly, and said to Xu Shiji: "The junior has seen Uncle Xu!" ”
"You kid, I haven't seen you grow a lot taller for a while, I heard that you have been having a lot of fun recently, and the old man's position is still thanks to you, otherwise the cold wind is still blowing in the north at this time, let's say, what's the situation now? The Holy One didn't let me hang out. Xu Shiji said with a smile.
"Uncle Xu, the Taiyuan Wang clan sent a private army to intercept and kill us, wearing armor, equipped with crossbows, corpses and weapons are all inside, they are all evidence, you can understand it at a glance."
"What, are they trying to rebel?" Xu Shiji's face changed greatly.
Qin Huaidao motioned for Xu Shiji to step aside, lowered his voice and said: "Uncle Xu, Wang Gui's third son, Wang Tongbiao, is training troops in Shaohua Mountain, with a scale of two thousand, or even more, Zhao Shuwen, the county commander of Weinan County, is willing to be a witness, this matter is important, and troops must be sent to encircle and suppress it, but we can't let them know." As he spoke, he looked at the soldiers not far away.
Xu Shiji, a veteran of a hundred battles on the battlefield and rich experience, reacted quickly and asked rhetorically: "Are you worried that Zuo Wuwei has a problem and will reveal the news in advance?" ”
"It's hard to say, there is no harm in guarding against it, there is a precedent." Qin Huaidao said in a low voice.
When Xu Shiji heard that there was a precedent, he became more and more careless, thought about it, and said in a low voice: "This is the first battle since the old man took office, and it must be fought well, and it is also a battle for the hundred cavalry division to correct his name. ”
"So serious?" Qin Huaidao was a little surprised.
"It's not serious, how can it be useless? Tell us what you think. Xu Shiji asked.
Qin Huaidao said with a smile: "The juniors who march and fight don't dare to get an axe in front of you, Zhao Shuwen can be a guide and lead everyone to Shaohua Mountain, but it's ......"
"But what?" Xu Shiji's eyes lit up.
"However, it has been a morning since the incident, but no one has come to extinguish it, and the younger generation estimates that Wang Tongbiao has already led people to run away, as long as no one can be found, there is no way to convict them, the Wang family is all old foxes, and they are fine." Qin Huaidao said seriously.
"It makes sense, you know more about the situation, tell me your opinion, and see if it is consistent with the old man." Xu Shiji asked, saving the heart of the school examination.
