Chapter 673: Don't talk about martial virtues
After trying the forbidden army's catties, it is impossible to say that the thieves of Qingfeng Mountain are unwilling.
has thwarted the attacks of the forbidden army several times, and in the green forest of the Great Song Dynasty, it can be regarded as a strong hand with a head and a face, and this rabble should also be proud.
However, Wang Ying and Zheng Tianshou did not alleviate even the slightest pressure, and the strings in their hearts were always tight, as if they were not careful, they would be worried about their lives. This makes them physically exhausted very quickly, and at the same time, they are becoming more and more anxious.
The five thousand forbidden troops under the mountain were nothing to them. They even firmly believe that if they get the right moment, they can easily break through.
After all, Wang Ying also weighed the situation of the forbidden army, and it was vulnerable.
Besides, how many of the forbidden troops under the mountain are real forbidden troops, and how many are under the guise of indiscriminate refill?
However, Li Kui is different at the foot of the mountain.
What does it feel like to be targeted by Li Kui, like he was blocked in a cave by a tiger, and getting out of the cave is a matter of life and death. And it's a situation where you will die. Although the tiger did not eat people, it was in a bad mood and came to bite it. It's a person who can't stand the horror of such a small life anytime and anywhere. What especially made him angry was that he was at war with the forbidden army, and Li Kui didn't care. But if he wants to escape, Li Kui will immediately block the route he wants to escape.
It's playing with him!
The big man wanted to cry aggrievedly.
Knock Knock Knock –
The snare drum under the mountain remembered again, Wang Ying lay on the sack of grain, and said weakly: "These officers and soldiers are here to scare me again, is there any end?" Hateful, annoying! ”
"Owner of the village, it's not good, the official army is attacking again!"
Wang Ying immediately jumped up from the sack, scooped up his simple knife, and his legs seemed to be heavy as lead, but he cheered up, went out of the cave, met the minions waiting for his order, and raised his arms and shouted: "Little ones, follow me to rob and kill this group of dog thieves who have come to send them to death." ”
After speaking, one person took the lead and rushed to the place of the incident majestically.
But when I arrived at the place, I found that more than a dozen of my subordinates had died, but I only saw the backs of the officers and soldiers fleeing like rabbits. It must not be able to catch up, and Wang Ying shouted angrily on the mountainside.
Hua Rong saw the situation and immediately ran to Li Kui to ask for advice: "Brother, the thief is going crazy. ”
"It's only been one day, continue to tease them, it's been ten days and half a month, I don't care about this day or two days."
Li Kui replied indifferently, but his eyes kept staring at an idle book that he had touched from the study of Hong Zhong in the Qingfeng Zhai Department, the content of the book was about the harmony of yin and yang, this is the harmony of heaven and earth, huh...... The idea is very high, but the style is simply unsightly.
In order to criticize the author's shameless behavior, Li Kui decided to read it.
After going out, Hua Rong sighed with emotion: "My brother is really a scholar, he is tireless in learning, and he doesn't forget to study knowledge even when he marches and fights." ”
But he just thinks about this, he is a disciple of Jiangmen. Not every disciple of Jiangmen can be like Chong Jianzhong, from the children of Jiangmen to the rank of civil officials. This requires a famous ancestor, and the ancestor of the breeder is a great Confucian who is famous all over the world. And then there is also a famous teacher, such as Zhang Zai. This made Chong Jianzhong turn from Jiangmen to civil officials. But even so, there is no Zhongjin Shi in the cultivation of Jianzhong, and he is often bullied.
Hua Rong's talent is just a rough understanding of literature and ink, and his martial arts are passed down from his family, but it is impossible for his family to worship the famous teacher.
Since Li Kui felt that the bandits could still hold on, Hua Rong was determined to give the bandits something more exciting, and he would personally go up the mountain to meet the bandits for a while.
Knock Knock Knock –
It was the snare drum again.
Wang Ying scolded on the mountainside, he was ambushed, and he was ready to teach the officers and soldiers a painful lesson, but you actually broke the appointment, is there still a minimum of trust between people?
Even at night, it didn't stop.
Anyway, there are a large number of officers and soldiers, and even if a quarter or a fifth of the men and horses are transferred, it is not something that the bandits can easily defeat.
In particular, through several cold sneak attacks, the officers and soldiers not only did not suffer losses, but also made a lot of gains. Seven or eight thieves die at a time, and in less than three or five days, the thieves on this mountain will be killed.
Originally, Hua Rong commanded the troops, and others didn't say it, and the generals of the forbidden army in Qingzhou were not very convinced.
How big is the doll, holding chicken feathers as arrows to drive them, the old men in the army?
But after taking advantage of it a few times, he was immediately impressed by Hua Rong. Of course, people with a bit of brains know better that Hua Rong may be good at martial arts, or he is still a disciple of the general, and his achievements in the army may not be lower than theirs. But Hua Rong was able to play the thief so easily, not because of his ability, but because Li Kui was pointing behind his back.
It seems that there is no discipline and unbridled means, but it can give full play to its numerical advantage. At the same time, it constantly weakens the strength and morale of the thieves.
Especially in the time when they went up and down the mountain again and again, playing like teasing, many lieutenants and lieutenants found that their soldiers cooperated a lot.
It's only been a long time!
If Li Kui is allowed to train the troops, maybe in a year, this army will be able to go to the Western Xia battlefield to fight.
Even Zhao Tingzhi, who didn't like Li Kui's horizontal and vertical eyes, secretly sighed in private: "On paper, I finally feel shallow, Li Kui has an arrogant personality, but he really has the ability to turn his hands into clouds and cover his hands for rain." ”
But Zhao Tingzhi will never say this outside.
Civil officials in the Great Song Dynasty were often appointed as superintendents and commanders.
This is due to the system, not that civilian officials are better at fighting wars than military generals.
Fan Zhongyan, Zhang Dian, Wang Shao, Zhang Qi, Shen Kuo...... Each name indicates that on that day, the powerless civilian officials will take on the heavy responsibility of commanding the army.
Therefore, the generals of the Great Song Dynasty studied the art of war, and the civil officials of the Great Song Dynasty studied the art of war more crazy than the military generals.
The formation is so complicated that even the veteran of metaphysics is dazzled, but often the civil officials can still deduce such a complicated formation.
It can be said that most of the civil officials of the Great Song Dynasty were military artists. Why was Li Qingchen appointed as a privy councilor?
Li Qingchen, who had never fought and commanded an army, also wrote about the art of war. No one knows how it was written, but Emperor Shenzong said it was good.
Zhao Tingzhi naturally will not be left behind, he has also pondered the art of war, but pondering is one thing, and using it is another. Li Kui's methods may not be very clever, but they are indeed the best and most practical methods. He would even pretend to stay on when Li Kui and Hua Rong were talking, just to eavesdrop on a few words.
For example: "Small wins become big wins." ”
"The art of war, just can't. Water is impermanent, and soldiers are impermanent. Only by following the trend can we get twice the result with half the effort. ”
are all words in the book, and Zhao Tingzhi is familiar with them. But how to use it on the battlefield is the means of the general.
If these are not enough to show that Li Kui is old enough to use soldiers, on the hillside, the bandit leader shouted like a madman, which is enough to show that Li Kui's IQ has crushed the other party countless times.
A martial artist who is about to go crazy has no longer any threat.
Maybe at some point, he will go crazy and rush down the mountain with people and throw himself into the net.
Bell, bell, bell
On the mountainside, Hua Rong shot five thieves in one breath with arrows, and with a random shot from the crossbow archers, seventeen or eighteen thieves lay on the ground. Either don't move, or just wail.
Wang Ying watched his men die one by one, his eyes were red, and he roared at Hua Rong: "Thief, don't talk about martial arts, do you engage in sneak attacks, and have the ability to fight in an upright manner?" ”
Wang Ying also knew that the other party was not like the few forbidden army generals who had fought with him. If it is really a one-on-one fight, Wang Ying is also a little weak-hearted. What's annoying is that you're so strong, and you still use sneak attacks. is too bullying, Wang Ying fell into the grass not to be angry, but to be unscrupulous.
But Hua Rong just ignored him, and let the crossbowmen retreat down the mountain under the cover of the crossbowmen.
As soon as his head was hot, Wang Ying led people down the mountain with him.
Seeing this, Zheng Tianshou did not hesitate, raised the big knife in his hand, and roared angrily: "The head has fallen, and the bowl is big and scarred." Brothers, fight with the officers and soldiers. ”
"Fight!"
"Kill!"
Although Cao Yuanchun, who commanded Yamashita to respond, was injured and could not participate in the battle, there was no problem at all in sending men and horses to respond.
Seeing this, he hurriedly ordered: "Set up an army formation, open the middle gate to let our army retreat to the main formation, and order the outflanked men and horses to wait for the thieves to go down the mountain, and block the back road of the thieves." Not a single thief shall be spared. ”
Cao Yuanchun also hated the thieves of Qingfeng Mountain, in front of this inconspicuous den of thieves, he not only lost his soldiers, but also injured himself.
When you catch the bandit leader, you have to humiliate it before you can relieve the hatred in your heart.
"Li Kui, your grandfather Wang Ying is here, dare to fight!"
"Li Kui, come out quickly!"
Wang Ying's crying roar was of no avail at all.
Not to mention Li Kui, even Li Kui's little follower Ruan Xiaowu is not there. Only Hua Rong, the righteous brother that Li Kui had just received, returned to his own formation.
When Cao Yuanchun saw this scene, he felt a little sympathetic to Wang Ying. It's not good to offend anyone, you have to offend Li Kui. No, even the wicked who occupy the mountain as the king are crazy.
Wang Ying seems to have lost her mind, she can't eat or sleep well these days, and she doesn't say anything. In the last two days, he didn't even have a chance to close his eyes for a moment. Although he seems to be a criminal who has not yet been caught, he seems to have entered the trial stage, and he is still the most inhumane way to keep him from sleeping. Even flat-haired animals can't stand the means, can he hold on to a living person?
"Li Kui......"
Wang Ying roared hoarsely again, and at this time, Hua Rong, who had already gathered up the people in his headquarters, put down the hard bow in his hand. Carrying a bright silver gun, he stood in front of Wang Ying with a lofty spirit. raised his hand and pointed at Wang Ying with a silver tip, and said crisply: "Well, the thief is also worthy of fighting my brother." I'll see you for a while. ”
"Be careful, this thief is not bad."
Cao Yuanchun reminded behind Hua Rong.
He has suffered the loss of Wang Ying, and in his opinion, Wang Ying, a thief who has kung fu but still likes to use tricks, is the most insidious. Of course, no matter how dangerous Wang Ying is, he was also played around by Li Kui. Except for scholars, there is no more dangerous than a cunning thief like Wang Ying.
But Hua Rong didn't seem to hear it, and rushed up to kill Wang Ying.
The distance between the two was two or three feet, Hua Rong slid a distance at speed, suddenly lowered his waist, tied down the plate, clenched the bright silver spear with both hands, and shook out three spear flowers in the air.
Wang Ying seemed to be expected by Hua Rong, and suddenly flashed away to meet Hua Rong's attack. But Wang Ying knew in her heart that this was a gap. The movement of his lower shoulder had betrayed the direction he wanted to attack, and his heart was suddenly alert, this was a master.
Struggled to dance the long knife into a ball, resisting Hua Rong's tentative attack.
Bell, bell, bell
is inferior in strength, and it is also a loss in strength.
Wang Ying landed on the ground, swooping, and took four or five steps back with his feet alternately, only then did he stabilize his figure.
At this time, he also understood that there was no way back. The opponent's martial arts are much higher than him, and if he wants to win by strength, he has no hope at all, so he can only work hard.
Wang Ying didn't make a sound, and sprinted towards Hua Rong with his head covered, and the sword light flashed from time to time. Wang Ying wanted to rely on his speed, get close to Hua Rong, and use the shortness of the knife to find opportunities for himself.
But Hua Rong lightly stabbed a shot on Wang Ying's offensive route, and immediately widened the distance between the two.
Suddenly, Wang Ying's body twisted coldly, but he saw that the tip of Hua Rong's spear was already on Wang Ying's thigh.
After fiddling with the tip of the gun, Wang Ying rolled to the end like a stone thrown off.
The soldiers behind Hua Rong rushed forward, put the knife on Wang Ying's neck, kicked away Wang Ying's weapon, and was immediately tied up by Wuhua Da.
Wang Ying was pressed down in front of Hua Rong, raised her head with difficulty, and the little mung bean stared at Hua Rong with dead eyes, shouting with a hideous face: "I don't accept it!" ”
