However, it was said that Huang Wenchang and Zhang Da ran wildly for their lives, and it was easy to get out of the battlefield, so they dared to look back and find that there was no thief to pursue.

After the official army retreated to Liangcun, Huang Wenchang was able to collect one hundred and seventy or eighty defeated troops, and more than 700 horses went to seventy percent without shooting a bow or a gun, where would he dare to go back to Leijiabao,

Seeing the hesitant expression of the guard, Li Youcai, who had escaped by luck, came up: "Dongjia, Lei Chuang and them seem to have fallen into the hands of thieves." ”

Huang Wenchang knew that Li Youcai had something to say, and asked at the moment: "Now that our army has been defeated, and Leader Lei doesn't know whether he is alive or dead, I don't know if Mr. Li has a countermeasure?" ”

Li Youcai said cautiously: "The owner, according to his subordinates, since Lei Chuang and they failed to escape, and there are all the soldiers of the owner here, it is better to give him a cover for defeat and victory, and we can still get some compensation silver." ”

Huang Wenchang was a little surprised, more than 700 people were beaten by the thieves and fled, only less than 200 remnants of the defeated army remained, and the weapons, grain and grass were also discarded.

Zhang Da, the official of the hundred households on the side, didn't know why, so he stepped forward and asked: "Master Li, our army has not won a single point in this battle, and has lost hundreds of men and horses, how can this hide Lei Zhibo?" ”

Li Youcai sneered: "Today, our army entered to suppress Li Rei, the clinker thief was cunning, and set up an ambush in the Shi family, the thunder leader did not care about himself, waved his sword to meet the enemy, but the thief army was numerous, the arrows were like locusts, and the thunder leader was finally outnumbered, unfortunately martyred, and the front army was defeated. ”

Li Wei immediately drove the army to clash with our army's main formation, but fortunately, the garrison adults took the lead, shouting, "You can't break the thief, and you have the face to see Gao Yang's father?" "Immediately beheaded several thieves, Li rebelled when he heard the wind and lost heart, the thieves were panicked and frightened, our army took the opportunity to advance, the thieves were defeated and lost, and they died in the mountains and forests, but the sky was getting late, and the soldiers fought again and again, our army had to hoard and support the city, and then plan for the future, and also asked the county to respect the body of the official army with serious casualties, and give more compensation, if the humble position does not break Li Rebellion, he will never withdraw the army."

Huang Wenchang and Zhang Da were stunned, and they both said that the reader has many eyes, and this dead person can be said to be alive, but he still has doubts, so he asked: "If Lei Zhibo asks us to capture, what should we do?" The people who support the city are all tenants of my Huang family, doesn't Mr. Li want to use them to pay to the county, right? ”

Li Youcai smiled: "The owner, we didn't get it, Li Xingzhi has it, the student is not talented, I am willing to go to the Dajiaotai to contact him, the owner can quickly send people to transfer the money and grain of Leijiabao to Yongcheng, and tomorrow at the latest, the students will have good news." ”

Huang Wenchang looked at Li Youcai with a straight face, and was suspicious, but now that he has been defeated, he can only follow Li Youcai's plan, and said at the moment: "If Mr. Li can move Li Xingzhi, he will find a job for Mr. in the garrison yamen, what do you think." ”

Li Youcai was originally a down-and-out talent in Gaoyang, he is already in his forties this year, due to repeated failures, he has long given up the idea of being an official in the imperial examination, and now Huang Wenchang promised to let him enter the garrison yamen, that must be to promote himself as an official, how not to make him happy, and bowed to Huang Wenchang and said: "It's not early in the east, students should go to the big teaching platform first!" ”

Huang Wenchang was in chaos, and the only hope was Li Youcai in front of him, after thinking about it, he asked his nephew Huang Hu to follow Li Youcai to go with him, and he led the army back to Yongcheng, and ordered Zhang Da to take people to Leijiabao to collect money and grain.

Yongcheng is actually not a city, but a village courtyard of the Huang family outside Gaoyang City, not far from Liangcun, close to Ma Pengdian, Huang Wenchang saw that there are three sides of the lake here, easy to defend and difficult to attack, so he ordered people to build a dock fort here, thinking that he was a place to hoard grain outside the city, so in less than half an hour, Huang Wenchang led the army to arrive at Yongcheng.

After arranging for the rout to rest, Huang Wenchang tossed and turned, and fought such a big defeat, if he slept there would be a ghost!

Unlike Huang Wenchang, Li Jiashan will be in full swing, every soldier is excited, even the old and weak women and children in the rear camp are also thunderous, more than 100 people defeated more than 700 officers and soldiers, and only six casualties have been inflicted.

In the lobby of the cottage, Qian Anning was proudly holding the documents that had just been counted, and was reporting to Li Xingzhi.

"The big boss, our army killed two in this battle, four were wounded, but they were all slightly injured, it is estimated that it will be fine for a few days, three hundred and thirty-eight officers and soldiers were captured, and two hundred and seven officers and soldiers were killed in the battle, most of them were squeezed and trampled to death by each other, and now all the corpses have been collected, how to deal with it is also asked to show the big boss."

After Qian Anning finished speaking, he peeked at Li Xingzhi, and seeing that Li Xingzhi was noncommittal, he said: "Our army has captured 12 stones of grain and grass, 200 longbows, 200 pairs of swords and shields, 330 spears, and 5,000 arrows and 7 sets of armor. ”

"The official army entered the suppression, and they only brought twelve stone military rations?" After listening to Qian Anning's words, Li Xingzhi asked suspiciously.

Qian Anning was taken aback, and hurriedly knelt down and said: "The big boss, what his subordinates said is true, there is indeed only so much grain and grass, and this Yang leader can testify." ”

Li Xingzhi smiled and said continuously: "Mr. Qian, please get up, a certain family doesn't mean to blame you, it's just that now that we have captured so many prisoners, the food in the cottage can't last long!" ”

Qian Anning and Yang Biao glanced at each other, and their hearts were full of slander, before in Leijiabao, so much food was given up when they said they gave up, but now it's okay, where can I get so much food?

Chen Wu laughed and said: "Big boss, now that the main force of Gaoyang's official army is gone, isn't the grain in this Gaoyang realm still at our disposal?" ”

Li Xingzhi was also relieved when he heard this, yes, he is a thief, if he doesn't rob a big family, what will he eat? What to drink? Now that the main force of Gaoyang's official army is in mourning, isn't the money and food on the periphery of Gaoyang still left to be taken by himself?

So he said at the moment: "Brother Chen is right, now this Gaoyang, who dares to go against us, you will arrange the officers and soldiers into the front camp tomorrow, and after two days of rest, we will take the money and food for the city." ”

Everyone laughed and was about to speak, but the patrol post under the mountain came with news, saying that Huang Wenchang, the garrison of Gaoyang, had sent an envoy to ask to see the big boss.

Wang Zhong said: "Huang Wenchang was defeated by us today, and he dared to send someone over, isn't he crazy?" ”

Li Xing waved his hand and said, "You don't need to say much, I'll wait and see what happened to Huang Wenchang, who sent someone here?" If he can't come up with one or two, a certain family will use his head to sacrifice the flag. ”
