Chapter 136: Beautiful and Healthy Parallel Goods
The soldiers of the Blue Wolf Army in the bamboo forest trampled on each other and suffered heavy casualties. Shi Xianda understood that he had been attacked suddenly, and quickly withdrew from the bamboo forest, retreating on the path where he was coming.
At this time, Gong Changyu held a bow and crossbow, led a team of people and horses to stand at the height of the intersection, and shouted, Thief Kou Shi Xianda, where are you fleeing today?
Seeing this, Shi Xianda couldn't help but scold, Gong Jichang, the eagle dog of the imperial court, was really cunning, and dared to ambush my blue wolf army in the safest place!
"This is a soldier who is not tired of deceit! Hahaha! Gong Chang shot at Shi Xianda when he pulled his bow and arrows.
Shi Xianda, who was standing at a low place, couldn't dodge it, and was hit by an arrow in his left shoulder. This guy is worthy of being a battle-hardened general, and he quickly broke the arrow feather in pain, and threw a black ball towards Gong Changyu's location.
Immediately, the ball made a loud "bang", and the smoke filled everywhere, with a choking smell of chili powder. By the time Gong Changyu and his subordinates came back to their senses and stopped coughing, Shi Xianda and his assistant Zhang Yimou had already fled without a trace.
The blue wolf army behind the palace resisted desperately, fought and retreated, and the soldiers of the elite battalion fought hard to catch up, until they drove them out of the maple realm, and then stopped. Liu Yuntian, the general manager, volunteered to take a team of men and horses to take a detour and capture Shi Xianda alive.
Gong Changyu thought about it, stopped Liu Yuntian and said, "Don't chase after the poor." General Ben estimated that their follow-up troops would arrive soon. This ambush battle is mainly based on deterrence, so that this blue wolf army can know how powerful General Ben is, and there will be a chance to fight them in the future. ”
At that time, Zhu Rongchu, who was Gong Changyu's staff, was a small ghost, and he did not agree with Gong Changyu's approach, believing that Shi Xianda did not have many troops, and should rely on the favorable terrain and the advantages of fighting in his hometown to wipe out this vanguard force to prevent future troubles, especially not to let Shi Xianda go.
Gong Changyu shook his head, he admired Shi Xianda for being a man, although he was fighting for the Blue Wolf Country, but he and Feng Quan, the lord of the Blue Wolf Country, had already dissociated themselves, and it was too cruel to put him to death. Immediately, Gong Changyu rejected Zhu Rongsen's suggestion.
After this battle, Gong Changyu captured a lot of horses and grain, and also captured more than 200 blue wolf troops, achieving the first victory since the formation of the Jingjie battalion.
This news soon spread in the capitals (townships) of Rulin County, and some insightful squires and wealthy people spontaneously sent money, grain and grass to Gong Changyu in order to thank the "Jingjie Battalion" for making a significant contribution to the protection of local tranquility, and some even sent their own children to Gong Changyu's account.
The regimental training team quickly expanded to more than 800 people, which made Gong Changyu very grateful, and he seized the time to train these recruits and decided to fight with the blue wolf army that entered Shi Xianda in Jingnan County.
One day, my uncle's family went to a temple more than 20 miles away to worship, and Hei Dashuai and they went out with the team to practice. Only Gong Changyu and Feng Jiao'er stayed in the courtyard to watch the house. At noon, Gong Changyu, who was idle and bored, was reading the military books that gave him a headache in the attic of the Zhu family's mansion, and unconsciously fell asleep on the desk.
When he was sleeping soundly, he was woken up by a barking dog. He looked through the window in the attic and saw four mysterious men with masked faces and green hearts on a red background and green hearts climbing over the wall, whispering in the courtyard, looking for something.
At this time, Feng Jiao'er came to the attic with some fruits, and she didn't find the man who sneaked into the courtyard. When the masked men saw Feng Jiao'er coming out, they didn't go up to catch her, but quickly hid behind the wooden pillar and hid.
Gong Changyu secretly thought, mother, who are these people? What are our intentions in the Zhujia compound for most of the day? Could it be a killer sent by Shi Xianda?
Before he had time to think about it, Gong Changyu turned to the table and picked up the revolver, and then stood by the window again, carefully observing the movement in the courtyard. After the masked men waited for Lin Haiying to go upstairs, one of them did a front flip, crossed the corridor, and rushed to the front hall.
These masked men are agile, and they don't look like they're here to assassinate, but they're supposed to be on some secret mission. Gong Changyu seemed to sense that something was wrong, and walked lightly down the attic, only halfway to the corridor, and met Feng Jiao'er who came upstairs.
"Boss, there are a few mysterious people in our compound, don't you notice?" Gong Changyu whispered.
"Changyu, as soon as I entered the backyard with a fruit bowl, I found their traces, but I don't want to startle the snake." Feng Jiao'er grabbed a horse's skinned hoof and stuffed it into Gong Changyu's mouth.
Gong Changyu chewed a few times, swallowed it whole, and muttered in his mouth, I'm tired of eating this horseshoe, can you change a new fruit for me to eat?
"No, you can't." Feng Jiao'er smiled and shook her head.
Since Gong Changyu and Lin Haiying reunited, nosebleeds have been bled from time to time, and Feng Jiaoer saw it in her eyes and was anxious in her heart. She saw in a book of herbs about horseshoe:
Horseshoe, also known as water chestnut, has the reputation of underground Sydney pear since ancient times, and northerners regard it as Jiangnan ginseng. The skin of the horseshoe is purple and black, the meat is white, the taste is sweet and juicy, crisp and delicious, it can be used as a vegetable, as well as a fruit, and can also be made into horseshoe flour, which is used to make a horseshoe cake. Jingjiang (present-day Guilin) horseshoe has long been famous and nutritious, containing protein, vitamin C, calcium, phosphorus, iron, quality, carotene and other elements. Horseshoe has the effect of clearing heat and moistening the lungs, generating jin and eliminating stagnation, soothing the liver and brightening the eyes, and improving qi and circulation......
So, according to pharmacology, Feng Jiaoer would get some horseshoe for him to eat every three or two days, and when he was free, he would personally go to the kitchen to make horseshoe meatballs and horseshoe cake for him to eat, hoping that the strange disease of nosebleeds would be cured as soon as possible.
After a long time, Gong Chang wanted to vomit after eating. However, in order not to make Feng Jiao'er feel cold, and she was embarrassed to say it, she still did not refuse to come, and ate them all.
"It's a horseshoe again." Gong Changyu looked at a large plate of horses' hooves, couldn't help frowning, his heart was almost broken, and he found a reason to prevaricate: "Madam, let's go down and see those masked people." ”
"Let's finish eating these hooves." Feng Jiao'er gave him a blank look.
"You put the horse's hooves on the table in the attic, and wait until the masked men are settled." Gong Chang met Nunuzui.
"Okay." Feng Jiao'er went straight to the attic, put the plate on the table, and came down quickly.
The two of them arrived at the entrance of the building, and a few bullets came over, Gong Changyu hurriedly retreated, and then pushed Feng Jiao'er behind him: "Jiao'er, you go to the attic, I'll deal with it alone!" ”
"Changyu, a good hand is hard to beat four hands. There were three or four of them, muskets in their hands, and none of them could be dealt with by you. Feng Jiao'er refused to leave. She didn't know that Gong Changyu's runner had a total of seven bullets in it, and the rate of fire was several times faster than the speed of the musket outside, so it was a piece of cake to kill these people.
"Boss, you are pregnant, you can't help me here, you will only make trouble for me." Gong Changyu pulled down the ram of the revolver.
"Changyu, are these people here to kill people or rob things?" Feng Jiao'er asked.
"I think it's possible to have both." Gong Changyu replied without thinking, he carried Feng Jiao'er up to the attic and hid her in the shadow wall of the attic. Then he closed the door, went to the window, opened it, and jumped down, and quickly hid behind a wooden pillar to observe the situation at the entrance of the staircase.
Several masked people who rushed to the top of the stairs were overjoyed when they saw Gong Chang coming down to the ground, and immediately turned around and came back, outflanking him. They would never have thought that Gong Changyu had lived in this courtyard for more than ten years, and he could find every corner with his eyes closed, and he was afraid that these killers who would break in rashly would not succeed.
The killers didn't speak, and after each fired a shot at the pillar, they stopped, and also hid behind the wooden pillar, confronting Gong Changyu, throwing out poisonous needles from time to time, so that Gong Changyu couldn't probe out.
After a moment of silence, Gong Changyu squatted down, picked up a wooden bowl on the ground, and threw it into the air, and immediately a killer stretched out his hand and shot at the wooden bowl, revealing his position. At the same time, Gong Changyu pulled the trigger, and the killer's wrist was hit by the bullet that flew over and hit the major artery of the wrist, and the blood flowed, covering his wrist, and he couldn't help howling.
The other two killers saw that their accomplice was injured and did not go over to save him. One person took out an earthen ceramic* from his body, lit it, and threw it at Gong Changyu.
"Not good!" Gong Changyu hurriedly rolled on the spot and dodged the *.
Bang –
A puff of black smoke rose, * exploded, and more than a dozen splashed porcelain pieces flew towards Gong Changyu's eyes, he quickly blocked his face from the battle robe, and under the protection of the iron gauntlet, the porcelain pieces fell to the ground, so dangerous, a little slower than 0.01 seconds, his eyes were blind! Gong Changyu looked at it again, and the two pieces of porcelain were embedded in the back of his hand, bleeding. Ignoring the pain, he took the porcelain piece off.
Then another * rolled over and landed at Gong Changyu's feet, it was a dud bomb and did not explode. Gong Changyu was frightened into a cold sweat.
The two killers took advantage of the opportunity to drag a table as cover, and while shooting Gong Changyu, they climbed the high wall, but soon their muskets ran out of bullets.
Gong Changyu got up, came out with a revolver, and fired back at the killer.
"Ouch-" another killer shouted, and he was shot in the leg.
"Click-"
A bullet stuck in the chamber of the revolver jammed, and Gong Changyu was so angry that he scolded: "! This bullshit is a beautiful parallel import! ”
Over there, a killer couldn't climb the high wall, and with a long sword in his hand, he watched as the other two accomplices fled.
"Where to run!" Gong Changyu carried an armor-piercing gun, quickly rushed to the side of the high wall, and pierced the body of the killer with a shot, and the killer held a long sword and slashed at Gong Changyu's head.
"Die!" Gong Changyu grabbed the barrel of the gun with both hands, lifted him in the air, nailed him to the wall, and poked it hard, and the killer's long sword immediately fell down with a "clang", and he died of anger.
