Chapter 191: Two Old Friends
Can't wait any longer, Lu Zhishen and Shi Wengong must have already done it!
Zhu Long waved his hand, and the four soldiers behind him lifted out two ladders and gently set them up on the fence.
Zhu Long climbed up with an escalator in one hand and a gun in the other.
Lu Fang also climbed another ladder, Wei Dingguo held the ladder, stood below and regretted, why did he move a step slower and let the leader rush in front of him? After so many years of officialdom, I am too ignorant!
Suddenly, in the silent night, a miserable scream came from the opposite direction, Lu Fang mentioned it in his heart, and his movements froze, but Zhu Long sped up his movements, not caring about being exposed. He staggered to the top of the ladder, grasped the spire of the fence in one hand, and leaped to the plank.
On a long row of wooden planks, several officers and soldiers who were awakened opened their eyes in horror and were stunned for a moment before they reacted and shouted at the top of their voices: "Enemy attack!" ”
Zhu Long held a spear, shot the nearest officer and soldier to death, and continued to kill the front, and several officers and soldiers in front of him were so frightened that they rolled down.
But an officer and soldier behind Zhu Long drew a sword and bravely rushed up. The planks were narrow, and there was a fence next to it, and Zhu Long's gun was too long to turn the head of the gun in a hurry, so he raised his foot and kicked the officer and soldier down.
At this time, Lu Fang and Wei Dingguo also crossed in one after another, and the three of them jumped to the ground to form a defensive line to resist the officers and troops who came to besiege, and the Zhu family army behind them continued to strengthen and enter.
Zhu Long saw that the people were almost coming in, and he didn't wait any longer, in the face of the heavily surrounded officers and soldiers, he roared angrily, waved the iron spear, and killed several people in a row, the officers and soldiers were terrified, and no one dared to do it. Lu Fang and Wei Dingguo fought the left and right, and the soldiers behind fought bravely together, killing the large number of officers and soldiers to turn around and flee.
There was chaos in the barracks, there were officers and soldiers everywhere in the small space, Zhulong was a hundred people, it was like falling into the ocean, fortunately Shi Wengong also came in, although the two teams were small in number, but they were led by fierce generals, morale was high, and the officers and soldiers were suddenly attacked, fighting separately, and they couldn't stop the Zhujia army at all.
The two teams did not converge, and Shi Wengong rushed left and right in the barracks, setting fire everywhere and creating chaos. Zhu Long led his troops straight to the gate of the camp.
There were many officers and soldiers archers in the open space behind the gate, throwing a rain of arrows at the Zhu family army attacking outside, and they were suddenly killed from behind by the wolf-like Zhu family army, and the archers who had no melee ability were instantly defeated.
Zhu Long's men opened the gate, Lu Zhishen and Wu Song rushed into the camp like tigers out of the cage, and the soldiers behind continued to rush in, and the officers and infantry who did not form a phalanx were killed and retreated.
Gao Lian watched the camp fall into a sea of fire, and the soldiers of the Zhujia Army were led by a group of fierce generals, and the officers and soldiers were overwhelmed, and his eyes were dark, and he almost fainted.
He didn't know that Lin Chong and Zhu Hu had already gone to attack Gaotang Prefecture, and thought that the main force of the Zhu family army was here, but he only felt that the enemy and us had similar strengths, and now they were attacked by the enemy army, and they couldn't hold it at all.
He was disheartened at the thought that his plan had failed again.
The Zhu family's army attacked too quickly, he just heard the movement, and the Zhu family's army had already entered the camp, making the camp a mess, and he didn't have time to organize a counterattack.
"Master Gao, let's go, I'll escort you out!" Zhang Qing rode over and shouted loudly.
Gao Lian nodded innocently, was helped on the horse by Zhang Qing, and ran away with him in despair, without having the heart to scruple about his subordinates, and even abandoned the Flying Divine Soldier that had spent countless efforts to build.
Zhang Qing's cavalry was intact, protecting Gao Lian from the back door and fleeing to Dongchang Mansion.
It was very troublesome and took a long time for the Flying Divine Soldier to put on a thick full-width armor, and now it was important to flee for his life, so he had to throw down the armor and flee on horseback.
Hua Rong and Zeng Tu watched Zhang Qing flee from under their noses, and did not step forward to intercept them, because the opponent's cavalry was more than twice as large as their own.
After a while, the Flying Divine Soldiers came out, and they swooped down from the small mound, but the horses of the Flying Divine Soldiers were so good that many of them still ran away, and only captured more than eighty horsemen.
The officers and infantry fled in swarm, but were blocked by Hua Rong and the Zeng brothers, who shot and killed a few of the escapees, and then surrendered honestly.
Zhu Long and the others counted and harvested the armor, weapons and prisoners, and were busy for more than two hours, and finally packed and got into the car. After two battles, all the equipment of the 5,000 infantry in Gaotang Prefecture fell into the hands of Zhu Long.
Except for the hundreds or so who volunteered to join the Zhu family, most of the rest of the ordinary soldiers were still let go.
But none of the Flying Divine Soldiers were let go, and Zhu Long, who surrendered, warmly welcomed him; Those who are unwilling to surrender, Zhu Long coerced and lured them to force them to surrender, after all, this is the essence of various places, and many people's martial arts have reached the second-rate level, which can greatly improve the combat effectiveness of the army, and Zhu Long is reluctant to let go.
The only regret is that Ou Peng and Ma Lin were taken away and not rescued, so Lu Zhishen was depressed.
In the afternoon, Lin Chong and Zhu Hu came back, and to Zhu Long's surprise, they brought back a large group of war horses and hundreds of carts of money.
But he didn't care about this, because Lin Chong, Zhu Hu and a richly dressed middle-aged man walked side by side and walked slowly towards Zhu Long.
There is no need to guess, Zhu Long knows that this person is the descendant of Zhou Shizong, and the Chai Jinchai official who is called "Little Whirlwind" by the Jianghu people!
Chai Jin has a very prominent reputation in the rivers and lakes, he has a wide range of friends, righteousness and wealth, plus his identity is sensitive, and the local government is unwilling to provoke him, so many heroes who have committed crimes have hid in him for refuge, such as Wu Song thought that after he killed someone, he hid in Chai Jinzhuang, and Song Jiang was the same.
Lin Chong is matter is too big, killing the prison camp and Lu Qian sent by Gao Yu, Chai Jin really can't settle it, but Rao is so, Chai Jin still sent Lin Chong out safely, and wrote a letter of introduction, asking him to go to Liangshan, which shows the great energy of Chai Jin.
Zhu Long showed enough respect for such a former gangster, and when Lin Chong introduced him, he hurriedly dismounted to greet him, and arched his hand: "I have long admired the name of the great official of Chai, and when I see it today, it is enough to comfort my life!" ”
Chai Jin suffered a lot in prison, broke a lot of heart, and hurriedly returned the salute: "If it weren't for the great officials to send troops to rescue, Chai could only die in prison, how can he see the light of day again, the grace of saving his life, there is no way to repay it, please accept it!" ”
After speaking, he was about to bow down, Zhu Long hurriedly supported him, and the two greeted each other.
Zhu Hu suddenly smiled and said, "Big brother, there are two old friends here!" ”
Zhu Long blamed: "Since you are an old friend, why don't you come out to meet me?" ”
Zhu Hu smiled, with a wave of his hand, two big men in coarse cloth clothes walked out of the team, Zhu Long saw it and was taken aback, "Chao Tianwang, Brother Liu Tang, why are you two here?" ”
Chao Gai was a little embarrassed, and arched his hand with a wry smile; Liu Tang stiffened his chest, with an unshakable momentum.
Chai Jin explained: "A few months ago, Chao Tianwang and Liu Tang brothers, as well as Bai Sheng brothers, the three of them came to Chai Mouzhuang as guests and stayed for a few months. Later, Chai was trapped in Gaotang Prefecture, and in order to save me, the two broke into the Gaotang Prefecture prison, outnumbered, and were also arrested by Gao Lian! ”
"Two true righteous people!" Zhu Long sincerely saluted Chao Gai and Liu Tang, there were more than 100 guests on Chai Jinzhuang, but the only ones who could sacrifice their lives to save him were Chao Gai and Liu Tang.
They didn't expect that Zhu Long would respect himself so much, Liu Tang was a little embarrassed, Chao Gai was an underworld boss after all, he was born with the temperament of a big brother, and he was not stage frightened on any occasion, so he smiled and said: "I wish the big official too much reputation, the big husband should have repaid his kindness!" ”
