Chapter 383: Li Chengdong is killed
"It was said that these three people resold sunglasses to other soldiers, so ......" Ma Han sighed and said, it turned out that the pro-guard army, as Rwan's pro-army, clothing, food, housing and transportation were free, and the wearers were the most fashionable and popular, especially the big sunglasses who took them felt that they were handsome, and this has also become an ordinary soldier, whether it is a trendy product that the Ming army or officers and soldiers are rushing to buy, but unfortunately there is no place to buy this thing! Only the pro-guards have it! So many people started to beat their minds!
If you buy something, you sell it, and the items of the pro-guard army are free, and you can report the loss of a new one if you sell it, so some can't help but be tempted to start trading quietly, and you don't want to be found by the military discipline department who has nothing to do all day long!
Rwan's face darkened! "Catch it well, this belongs to reselling public property!" Saying that, he sighed, "Am I too good to you, there is no shortage of food or drink, and it is impossible to lack silver if the salary is so high, it is ......"
"Who would think that there is a lot of silver", Xu Wuhou said beside him, Ma Han immediately glared at him, seeing that the two of them were about to get on the bar again, Lu Wang exhaled: "I will leave a batch of sunglasses and sell them to ordinary soldiers, Nima, it is not a rare and valuable thing, why is it so popular!" ”
The team began to set off, more than ten scouts led by Liang Ping had already set off first, as for the marching route, they had already traveled once, that is, they first went north from the east bank of the Baihe River for ten miles, and then crossed the river and went straight to the west, crossed the mountains and crossed the mountains, and inserted into the rear of the thief camp. But when you get there, you can follow the mountain road to the Purple Mountain Nest!
Zuo Mengeng's 2,000 men and horses followed closely behind the reconnaissance company, followed by Xu Wenjue's, and finally Zhu Yujian, it was inconvenient to march in the mountains, and it was convenient to hide all the infantry except for a few generals on horseback!
As the night wore on, Rwann walked slowly on his horse. While looking at the map in his hand with a flashlight, this is the road map of Liang Ping's words, he studied it carefully, not worried that the mountain road was difficult, but thinking about how to go straight to the Purple Mountain without knowing how to detour behind Li Zicheng, after all, Li Zicheng installed a lot of open and dark posts on this road, once they found it, they were in danger of annihilating the whole army with 5,000 men and horses, even if Huang Degong and others wanted to rescue, they could not be rescued. Because they don't have wings!
"Hey, it's snowing again!" Lu Wang looked intently, and Xu Wuhou was slightly surprised by his side, so he raised his head, and sure enough, the sky that was originally bright and starry had become gloomy, and small snowflakes slowly rose in the air!
"It seems that this time the entry into the mountain is not so smooth", Lu Wang sighed, once the snow is heavy, it will not be so easy for these 5,000 people to hide in Yinshan! And the weather will get colder, which can cause unexpected problems in the battle. Fortunately, the warmth of the soldiers is guaranteed, looking at the soldiers around him who are wrapped tightly and wearing Lei Feng hats, Lu Wang is still relieved!
"Hurry up. Before dawn, you must go around to the rear of the camp of the thief army", Lu Wang lightly ordered, it is easy to walk along the river bank, and it is convenient to cross the river. Now that the weather is cold, the river has long been frozen, and the difficulty is to cross the mountains and mountains in the section after crossing the river, according to Liang Ping. Thorns are all over the place, rocks are rolling, it's okay to walk alone, but it's not so easy for the 5,000 horses to be crushed! Of course, once you cross this inaccessible mountain and reach the back of the thief army, there is a ready-made mountain road to the Purple Mountain, and the only small problem is how to solve those open piles and secret posts!
The snow unexpectedly slowly fell heavier and heavier, and soon the silence of the entire Nanyang City became extremely quiet under the snow, just like the quiet departure of Lu Wang!
There is an empty gasoline drum near the west gate of Nanyang City near the bank of the White River, the bonfire is booming inside, and there are more than a dozen officers and soldiers standing under a big parasol next to it, who are constantly pacing, chatting about the sky, and cursing something: "Why did it suddenly snow on a good day during the day!" ”
"That's it, this ghost weather is terrible", someone chimed in: "We are suffering from the crime, why do you have to put up this errand, what do you say the thief army has become, how can you have the courage to come out, what kind of patrol is there, let those people in the city stare at the city wall at a glance, and still patrol outside the city?" I look at the uncle who wants to rectify us", it seems that this person is quite dissatisfied with Lu Wang!
"Are you impatient, even Fu Xingbo, you dare to chew your tongue", someone around him hurriedly stopped him, "Now the situation is hot, you have to be careful, didn't you hear that a regiment of the Ming Army was attacked and slaughtered by half a hundred a few days ago!" Patrolling is normal, it's just that we're unlucky enough to run into this expensive errand! ”
"Shhhh Thousands of households are coming", someone hurriedly stopped it, and everyone couldn't help but look up, only to see a large group of people coming from the north, at least more than 200 people came over, and the majestic general headed by Li Chengdong was Li Chengdong! Although the weather suddenly changed and the snow was falling, he had to lead the troops to patrol step by step, because it was said that there were people from the military discipline department on the wall above his head!
Li Chengdong glanced at the oil drum, reined in the horse and jumped down and walked over to stretch out his hand to bake the fire, he had already walked around, from the northeast corner of the city wall, to the west gate for more than 20 miles, it took two hours to stop and go back and forth, the cold and freezing really made people feel too hard!
Seeing that the boss came to roast the fire, more than a dozen soldiers under the umbrella immediately surrounded him to offer their courtesy, took out half a roasted hare and handed it over, and some even secretly took out a small wine jug from their arms!
Wine! Li Chengdong stared at the wine jug and couldn't help swallowing his saliva, and couldn't help but turn his head to look at the top of the city wall, where it was dark and he couldn't see anything!
"Don't worry, Lord Qianhu, there is no one above, and your subordinates will help you block it", a few pawns immediately helped Li Chengdong block it!
Drink or not, Li Chengdong is struggling in his heart, there is no more suitable than drinking two sips to keep warm, but there are regulations in the army that it is forbidden to drink alcohol when on duty, and once it is found, it must be severely punished, this is definitely not a joke, the military discipline department under the little uncle is definitely not vegetarian, and there are definitely no less than 100 officers and soldiers who have been beaten in their hands, and the iron-faced selfless anyone dares to clean up, the pro-guard army is awesome enough, I heard that there were three crying fathers who were beaten just now!
Forget it, Li Chengdong decided not to take this risk, he was not afraid of 10,000, he was afraid of what happened, plus his special identity, he really didn't want to find trouble! So he shook his hand at the pawn who handed the wine. Slowly walked under the umbrella, put his hands behind his back, and looked at the dark white river not far away and fell into contemplation!
He was very depressed in his heart, he felt very tired, it was that feeling tired, he was worried every day, he couldn't eat and sleep peacefully, he was really going to collapse when he was doing things under such a fairy-like figure, he felt that he could be exposed at any time, he didn't know if he had really deceived Lu Wang. Is this little fairy already known his true identity, but he is lucky, if he really knows his identity, it is impossible not to start, with his current authority to kill someone and not play, this really makes him unable to figure it out, of course he can't figure it out, Lu Wang can indeed kill him blatantly at any time, but he doesn't want to provoke Gao Jie to cause unnecessary chaos. is even more reluctant to leave a murderous side to others.
Gao Jie knew about his knot, and enlightened him from time to time, and luckily thought that Lu Wang would not notice him at all. But seeing that he was worried every day, he decided to let him leave and fly away! But for what reason to leave, with the blockade around Nanyang City now. It's certain that there is no way for him to go undetected, and sneaking away undoubtedly means that he has a ghost in his heart! In the end, the two decided that the big war was about to break out. You can take advantage of the chaos to escape, and then Gao Jie will report him on the grounds that he died in battle!
Bear with me for a few more days! Li Chengdong sighed, as long as he left here, where the world could not be accommodated, he could even go back to Xuzhou City incognito and become a housekeeper at Gao Jie's house!
Continuing to patrol, Li Chengdong, who finally figured it out, turned over and continued to walk along the city wall to the south gate, although it was cold, he still decided to do his best, not how serious and responsible he was, but he didn't want to be caught by the people of the Military Discipline Department!
Li Chengdong's patrol team has a total of 1,000 people, responsible for patrolling the 20-mile line of the southeast and west gates, he has set up a total of five fixed sentry posts in this distance, each sentry has ten people, and the remaining five hundred people he himself leads two hundred, and another group of three hundred men and horses staggered patrol, this is the best policy, four miles of a fixed sentry plus mobile patrol soldiers can be described as foolproof, he is confident that nothing can go wrong, even if there is a thief attack, as long as it is not a large group of people, he has the ability to do it!
It's already three o'clock in the morning, hearing the sound of the city wall, Li Chengdong, who was standing at the last fixed sentry to roast the fire, took a long breath, walked the next section and arrived at the West Gate, and then turned back to the East Gate It was almost dawn, and he could go back to the tent after work to sleep warmly, thinking about it was very exciting! So immediately turned over and took two hundred brothers along the city wall and walked slowly towards the west gate, this section of the road is very easy, but also the safest, the reason is very simple, near the west gate is stationed Zheng Hong's regiment of the battalion, and there are officers and soldiers on duty on the city tower.
The snow is flying all over the sky, covering the sky and the cold is also pressing, everyone can't help but tighten their necklines, here is very close to the West Gate, and you can see the lights of a camp stationed near the West Gate from afar, everyone is more and more relaxed, and from time to time gags and chatter!
"Hey, my lord, there's something wrong, look over there!" The relaxed atmosphere immediately dissipated, and then the air condensed, and everyone was a little flustered when they swords!
"What's wrong?" Li Chengdong looked at the soldiers next to him in confusion, his eyes followed the direction of his finger, and he saw in a daze that there was indeed something wrong with being twenty meters away from the west side of the team, and there were dozens of black things lying on the ground, which looked like someone was lying there!
"Alert!" Li Chengdong shouted, and his subordinates immediately put on a battle policy, but those black things were still motionless, which surprised him, "Niu Dan take some brothers to see, be careful!" Li Chengdong shouted to a personal soldier beside him, and immediately someone responded and slowly approached with a small team of people!
Ten meters away, the team stopped, shot arrows with bows, and the swishing sound didn't stop, but those black things still didn't move, but Niu Dan and others also found an abnormality! It's a dead body! So he immediately brought someone closer, and after a while, he ran to Li Chengdong out of breath: "My lord, it's a dead body!" ”
"Dead bodies?" Li Chengdong frowned, "Officers and soldiers or thieves?" Or ......" What he wanted to say was not the Ming Army, but Niu Dan immediately interrupted him: "No, it's a red-haired ghost!" Fan Ghost"
"Red-haired ghost!" Li Chengdong was taken aback, of course he knew the origin of the red-haired ghost, how could he appear here, and he died so much at once!
With questions, Li Chengdong immediately led the team to surround him, and borrowed the torch to look at nearly forty red-haired ghosts lying on the ground, which surprised him a lot, and he couldn't help jumping off the horse, reaching out and touching these corpses, the tentacles were cold, and they had been dead for a long time!
What the hell is going on, he can't understand, this is so close to a group, does this matter have anything to do with a group, Li Chengdong stood up and raised his eyes to look at a large camp more than two hundred meters away, his eyes were full of all kinds of puzzles: "Let's go, let's go to a group and ask!" ”
"Hey, what's that?" At this moment, the sharp-eyed soldier suddenly pointed to a place ten meters away, and everyone's eyes immediately focused on it, only to see the white snow began to roll up and down!
Li Chengdong's pupils were shrinking, "Enemy attack!" "He is experienced and knows that someone is hiding under the white cloth and is stealth, and now he is going to launch! It's just that obviously he found out a little slower, because nearly a hundred black-clothed people instantly poured out around them and surrounded them, Li Chengdong's heart sank suddenly, this is a full set, and he happened to step in!
Without any greeting, as soon as the people in black appeared, they didn't wait for Li Chengdong's men to react, and when they raised their hands, they shot crossbow arrows all over the sky! The bursts of screams made Li Chengdong's heart sink to the bottom of his heart, and he had a premonition that there would be less evil and less luck today!
"Brothers, kill out!" Li Chengdong naturally didn't want to be a turtle in the urn, even if he was dying, he had to struggle, no one wanted to die, he didn't want to die, under the cover of a few pro-soldiers around him, he ran in the direction of the camp of the crazy super regiment, where is hope! "Enemy attack, enemy attack!" Li Chengdong screamed desperately, he believed that a regiment would immediately support when he heard the call, at least the officers and soldiers on the city gate would also stretch out their hands!
The people in black did things very neatly, and after a rain of arrows, they immediately pulled out their steel knives and pounced, and the bloody battle began, screams, shouts, and escapes, accompanied by the snow all over the sky, the sound was in the ears!
A few recruits under Li Chengdong didn't dare to say how good they were, but they were definitely good at running, and the moment they were attacked, they immediately helped him and began to flee, and by the time the man in black drew his sword and fought with a bloody blade, he had already escaped more than ten meters away!
"Enemy attack! ......" Li Chengdong screamed while running wildly, but suddenly several black-clothed people appeared in front of him, startling him a lot, and immediately stopped, "You are ......"
No one talked to him at all, and several black-clothed people in front of him immediately flew over, and several guards greeted him, and fell in a pool of blood in the blink of an eye, which made Li Chengdong shocked: "I'......ll fight with you."
Before the word "done", a long knife had pierced his throat, and at the same time, he also felt a sharp pain in his lower body, as if his heart had also been pierced, and then there was no more, leaving with too much incomprehension!
"I stabbed him first", a stiff Chinese voice sounded,
"It's me!" There was a person squatting under Li Chengdong, and a short knife in his hand was inserted into his lifeline!
"Don't fight, I'll get it first!" With this voice, a steel knife inserted in Li Chengdong's heart was pulled out, and before the blood could spurt out, suddenly the knife light flashed again, and Li Chengdong's head was gone!
"The surname is Yang, you ......" The person squatting on the ground just wanted to say something, but was stopped: "Stop talking nonsense, hurry up and work!" ”
Li Chengdong's two hundred brothers left with him, not one of them stayed, and they also took a lot of puzzles, they didn't understand why there were so many corpses of red-haired ghosts, oh, it seems that there were still corpses of, and they couldn't understand why they were so close, when the attack happened, there was no movement in a large battalion, and there was no movement even on the city wall, which is really unscientific! It's just that there's no one to answer their questions!
A recent fixed sentry rushed to the scene when he heard the sound, the bloody and tragic scene made them can't help but vomit, but the murderous spirit of the team next to them made them dare not vomit, this team of people and horses is a group of people from the Ming Army, it is said that they were the first to rush to the scene when they heard the movement! (To be continued......)
