Chapter 56: The Wind Rises in Zengtou City (9)
Shi Wengong and Su Ding led thousands of military horses and returned to Zengtou City in a hurry, only to see that at this time, Zengtou City was on fire everywhere, and two of the five Dazhai had been burned.
Wei Dingguo's 500 firefighters in silk clothes are not only only fighting against the enemy, but they are also good at killing people and setting fires, chasing the remnants of the army led by the three Zeng Tu brothers all the way, killing people and setting fires at the same time.
At this time, Wei Dingguo also learned of the defeat of Shan Tingjue, and when he saw Shi Wengong coming back, he was worried about the lives of his friends, so he did not want to be entangled with Shi Wengong.
Shi Wengong, who was not far away, saw this situation, knew that there was no chance, and he did not chase after him, so he joined forces with Zeng Tu and others and returned to the main village.
After the tea, in the hall of the main village of Zengtou City, Zeng Rong, the mayor of Zengtou, Zeng Tu, the third son Zeng Suo, and the fifth son Zeng Sheng, the main and deputy teachers Shi Wengong and Su Ding gathered together, and the atmosphere in the hall was heavy and weird.
"The two teachers are both highly capable people, please get a charter, what should we do next?"
Shi Wengong and Su Ding glanced at each other, they both saw a touch of bitterness from each other's faces, their own family knew their own affairs, according to the plan set by the two earlier, they only needed to trap the Shenhuo General in Fahua Temple first, and after he and Su Ding raided the Lingzhou officer and soldier camp guarded by General Shengshui, and then turned back to attack Fahua Temple on both sides, if the cooperation is good tonight, you can break the officials and troops of Lingzhou, and tomorrow you only need to deal with the people from Dulonggang with peace of mind.
Just because the Zeng brothers were greedy for merit, but with more than 2,000 Zhuang Ding, who had never seen blood, they dared to raid head-on, but fell into the trap of the Shenhuo general, not only lost the soldiers, but also put Zeng Mi and Zeng Kui into the hands of the Lingzhou official army.
And although the two of them can be regarded as a big victory, Shi Wengong and Su Ding both understand in their hearts that tonight Lin Chong and Yang Zhi are just the temptation of Taishan Jun, and tomorrow is the time to move seriously.
Shi Wengong pondered for a moment and said: "Taigong, now that the reinforcements of Dulonggang have arrived, tonight we are also a victory and a defeat, and we have lost the opportunity, not to mention that the two sons have also fallen into the hands of the Shenhuo General. ”
I once saw Shi Wengong's appearance of wanting to speak and stopped, and knew in my heart what he was worried about, but after all, it was a nation on horseback, although he had lived in the Central Plains for a long time, but the bravery and ruthlessness in his bones had always flowed.
"Tonight is these few unsuccessful boys, ruined the plan set by the two teachers, although the old man does not know how to march and fight, but he also knows the truth of military law, then Zeng Mi and Zeng Kui don't say that they were just arrested tonight, even if they die, they deserve to die, the two teachers don't need to worry about his two lives, what to do."
Hearing this, Shi Wen Gongzhi felt a lot of emotion in his heart, and only sighed in his heart: Although this person is dying of old age, his means, city government, and courage are all first-class, if it is a Han person, we will give up this life to help him, but it is a foreign Jurchen.
Shi Wengong thought about it for a while, and was about to discuss it with Zeng Lane and Su Ding, and make a plan, even if he couldn't save the crisis in Zeng Tou City, he tried his best to save the lives of the Zeng family.
Zeng Sheng heard his father say that he didn't care about the life and death of the two brothers, which made the young son's heart all kinds of fire, and he got up suddenly and said: "Father, why are you afraid of those people, tonight it was the child who accidentally fell into the thief's trick surnamed Wei, tomorrow the child will gather troops and horses, and will rescue the second and fourth brothers." ”
"Vertical arrogance!"
Zeng got the words, took the case, pointed to this young son who was spoiled by himself in the past, and said angrily: "It's all because the old man spoiled you on weekdays, so that you can develop such an arrogant and ignorant temperament, if it weren't for your greed for merit tonight and ruined the plan of the two teachers, how could your two brothers fall into the hands of the officials and soldiers, and how could we be so passive?" ”
"How can you be passive? That Dulonggang came to be different and was retreated by the two masters, and the masters under the Taishan Jun of Lao Shizi were not the same as being beaten by the two masters and almost died, if you want me to say, it should be them who are afraid. ”
Zeng Sheng didn't listen to what Zeng Lane said at all, and still stiffened his neck and said, only although this person is the most talented in martial arts among the five sons of the Zeng family, but he is also the most unruly, except for a martial arts, his stomach is empty, he is a teenager, but how can he see the reality of Zeng Toushi hidden under the surface tonight.
Shi Wengong swallowed the words he originally wanted to say back into his stomach, and only glanced at Su Ding meaningfully, Su Ding smiled bitterly, arched his hand towards everyone, and spoke.
"As the young man said, although Teacher Shi and I defeated the two of Taishan Jun's men tonight, there are many tricks, if it is true, it will take a lot of effort to win these two, not to mention that in the Dulonggang array, there are more than one person with higher martial arts than these two people tonight; According to Su, tonight's fight will be just a temptation for that Taishan Jun, and tomorrow will be a hard battle, if you are not very careful, I am afraid that it will overturn. ”
Su Ding's words, but Zeng Sheng was stunned on the spot, although he was still unconvinced, but he didn't know how to refute, so he had to turn around and sit down angrily.
Zeng Tu, the son of the Zeng family, and Zeng Suo, the third son, also frowned after hearing this, Zeng Tu was the eldest son after all, and his mind was the most mature and stable, and after sitting and listening for a long time, he arched his hand towards his father and the two masters at this time, and said.
"Father, two masters, the child has an idea, although we have a break in Fahua Temple tonight, but the two masters also defeated the holy water general's department, now even if the Dulonggang reinforcements come, we are not inferior to them in terms of troops, but also occupy a geographical advantage, now the only thing to worry about is nothing more than the lack of people to lead the army, according to the child's intentions, that Taishan Jun is not known as benevolence and righteousness, let's use the guy caught a few days ago, go to him to find the Lingzhou officers and soldiers in exchange for the second brother and the fourth brother."
Zeng Langyan nodded approvingly, his eyes looked at Shi Wengong, the corner of Shi Wengong's mouth smiled slightly, although he felt that such an idea was shallow, but he didn't say more, this is also a way.
This method only lasted for a moment, and then it burst like a bubble, and a Zhuang Ding rushed into the council hall and opened his mouth.
"Oh no, no, the thief in the dungeon has been rescued."
