One hundred and thirty-eight chapters

In the early morning of the next day, some small wriggling black dots appeared faintly at the end of the southern horizon: Cheng Xi's gang of rebels appeared in the field of vision of the Nanjin Pass defenders one after another.

The guards at the gate became nervous, and from time to time someone pointed and whispered. The newcomer, Wang Biao, was like water, and he stood at the pass with the handle of the knife in his hand, looking coldly into the distance. Behind him stood two followers, with straight waists and cross-bows on their backs. Zhou Jun and the guards of Nanjin Pass, and the named guerrilla Tang Zhong were also on the wall, and seeing this situation, they subconsciously leaned over to Wang Biao.

"Wang Qianhu," Zhou Jun's title had already been used for his new official position, "this official can count on you and his brothers." ”

"Please rest assured. There are a number of lowly positions. Wang Biao replied, his eyes didn't look at Zhou Jun, but still stared at the approaching crowd a few miles away.

"Brother Wang, I'm not afraid of your jokes, I haven't fought before, there are so many thieves, are we sure?" Tang Zhong whispered in his mouth, and also looked at Wang Biao expectantly.

"Don't worry. Lord Zhou, please rest assured, this is just a group of displaced people. It's a pity that Wang has fewer soldiers, if Lao Wu doesn't go to Hexiguan, the two of us will open the gate and go straight to the front," Wang Biao looked up at the rising sun, "The team can be closed at noon." This kind of guy, if you don't kill a hundred under a knife, there will always be seventy or eighty. ”

Zhou and Tang glanced at each other, their eyes met each other's eyes, and at the same time they let out a sigh of relief.

Wang Biao suddenly remembered something, and turned to Zhou Jun: "Lord Zhou, there is a junior brother who also brings a team of people. I didn't see him again after the Liubian Station separated, thinking that he would come to Nanjin Pass in the end, so he went straight to Boryeong Mansion. A certain and Lao Wu are here, and Bao Ning expects him to have nothing to do. It's better to send someone to call him over, and everyone will have a good time together. Otherwise, the credit for this white pick is not his share, but it seems that a certain and Lao Wu are not righteous, and he will not rely on it. After speaking, he turned his head and instructed his relatives again: "Report a letter to Lao Wu and ask!" ”

The two guards responded, took off their bows, each took out a ringing arrow from the quiver, first blew lightly on the mouth to make sure that the small hole was not blocked, and then drew the bow and arrows, one after the other, and the two arrows screamed and rushed into the sky.

Zhou Jun was a little uneasy: "At the moment of the great enemy, why does Wang Qianhu still have to divide his troops to call people?" ”

Wang Biao responded: "Where can I use many people? A certain pie is enough for a fruit. The thief is grinding to the front of the pass, why is it almost noon, wait and call him later......" As he spoke, there was also a scream of arrows breaking through the clouds on the other side of the Jialing River. Wang Biao stopped talking, listened to it, and smiled, "Three sounds." That's what Lao Wu means. ”

Tang Zhong interjected: "What does this arrow mean? ”

Wang Biao said: "The thieves will not cross the river, they must go straight to our Nanjin Pass along the river bank." If a certain sound is made, it is to tell Lao Wu that when he crosses the river to cut off the back road of the thieves after a certain attack, he will reply to the sound. There are two rings, which means that there are two teams here to attack - Lao Wu knew that he was going to call the general, and he replied three times, which means that the three of them made meritorious contributions side by side. ”

Tang Zhong subconsciously scratched his head, but his fingers touched the iron helmet, and he helped him down to cover up his embarrassment, and smacked his tongue: "It's amazing!" A few sounds can deliver such a message! ”

Wang Biao smiled: "Ordinary things, nothing unusual. When there is chaos on the battlefield, no one sees anyone, and it all depends on a ring. We've been together for a long time, and we're very familiar with each other. Then he turned to Zhou Jun, "Lord Zhou, wait for a certain and my brother to go out together, and you and Lord Tang will just keep the door closed." Bother to prepare some food, and the brothers should be hungry when they come back. The first-level merit depends on the adults to watch the reward, and the adults promise a few things, all depend on the adults. ”

Zhou Jun secretly thought: Neither he nor the defenders need to meet the enemy, let a few foreign gods go out to fight with the thieves to collect the great achievements of the thieves? That's a big deal! So he was completely relieved and returned: "So good! Wang Qianhu rest assured. ”

Wang Biao clenched his fists, turned around and ordered: "Li Song, you go to Baoning Mansion to find the four-eyed dog." Liu Si, you go down and close the door and wait for an order. Let's make a mark, everybody! The two fruit chiefs took the order and led their subordinates to leave the wall.

The soldiers of this team took out green strips of cloth and tied them to each other, Wang Biao said to the puzzled Zhou and Tang: "It will be very chaotic when the fight will be very chaotic, and it will be difficult for hundreds of people to recognize who is a friendly soldier, make a mark, don't cut the wrong person." These words opened the eyes of Zhou and Tang again, and Tang Zhong hurriedly ordered loudly: "Recognize the green cloth mark, this is a friendly army, and those who are accidentally injured will also have their brains cut off!" After speaking, he turned his eyes back and saw Wang Biao's soldiers, and then secretly glanced at the group he brought with him, and realized that there was something wrong with these words-with his hands and feet trembling, could he hurt the group of tigers and wolves?

There was a commotion among the defenders, and everyone was rummaging around, hoping to find something similar to give them an extra layer of protection. But in a hurry, who would bring that thing when it's okay? At this time, Cheng Xi's gang of rebels who were at the forefront had already reached about three miles in front of the pass.

Nanjin Pass was close to the south gate of Boryeong, and after a while, Li Song's team came to the south gate of Boryeong Mansion. Of course, they are not here to find some four-eyed dogs-Wu Dazhuang, who has controlled the gate of Hexiguan and the city tower at this moment, is nicknamed Four-Eyed Dogs-Li Song is here to rob the south gate! Because there is Nanjin Pass in front of it, the south gate of Baoning Mansion has not been closed, the city gate official has checked the waist card, I heard that the team of people who came down from the front pass is here to help defend and respond, and he was overjoyed, patted Li Song's shoulder and said vigorously that after the battle, he would invite him to drink.

Wang Biao and Wu Dazhuang were the first horsemen led by Zhang Hu. Ten people died all the way down, two died of illness and one died in battle, and there were seven left. At this moment, a man named Niu Youtian became a battalion officer, and the other six people were already the commanders of each infantry team. According to the strategy discussed in advance by Zhang Hu, Fang Ge and Cheng Xi, the main force of Zhang Hu and Fang Ge was blocked in the north, and Cheng Xi took the lead in launching the battle in the south. However, with the thousands of displaced people in Chengxi, not to mention Baoning Mansion, it is absolutely impossible to defeat even Nanjin Pass, so Wang and Wu received the order and deceived the defenders with the waist card obtained by Lu Tong, not only to open and close for Chengxi, but also to take the south gate of Baoning in one go. Later, Cheng Xi led the crowd to make trouble in the city, and then fully cooperated with Wang and Wu to open the north gate......

Partly because of this, Fang Ge didn't build any complicated equipment such as siege towers and chariots. Another reason is that you can't expect people without any training or discipline to build it anyway - large equipment requires dozens or even hundreds of people to push it, and this kind of work usually requires auxiliaries to do it. Due to the accumulated fear of various tortures such as leather whips and sticks, the auxiliaries subconsciously obeyed orders and became a habit, coupled with the fact that there were grassroots officers who were forced with knives on the spot, so in most cases they would slowly advance forward at the risk of the fire pouring from the defenders, while the people were not, although they would push away at the beginning for fear of the sword and axe, once they entered the attack range of the city and saw the tragic death of their companions around them, they would 100% scatter and flee, throwing the soldiers in the tower under the attack of the enemy. The precious soldiers will die as if they were imprisoned in coffins!

Fang Ge was so confident in taking the Boryeong Mansion that he even scribbled the earthen ramparts on the city wall to command the deployment.

Cheng Xi was mixed in the ranks of the hungry people, and he was already approaching the shooting limit of the defenders on the wall of Nanjin Pass. As the reflection of the swords and guns on the wall became more and more dazzling, and the faces of the defenders became more and more recognizable, the fear in the hearts of the people became more and more intense, and the pace slowed down significantly. Seeing this, the morale of the defenders suddenly rose, and one by one they brandished their blades, shouting and scolding the people below, and using all the vicious words to cover up their cowardice just now. The archers drew their arrows from their quivers and placed them on the emcourse to shoot.

Wang Biao's soldiers had lined up four columns behind him, twenty spearmen with spears, the round shields of the sword and shield soldiers were all on their backs, and the knives were also in their sheaths, except for the sound of breathing, the ranks were silent. Tang Zhong looked at this group of people, and then turned his face to look at his subordinates, the contrast between the two was too stark, and he scolded embarrassedly: "Shut up Lao Tzu!" Those who have the courage will follow Wang Qian out of the customs to kill thieves! ”

There was a moment of silence.

Wang Biao said to Tang Zhong: "Lord Tang, Mo teaches the brothers to release arrows. These guys ran away all at once, and it was hard to chase them. ”

Tang Zhong hurriedly ordered to stop the eager archers, and Zhou Junqi said, "Don't you let go of the arrows...... What should the thieves do when they approach? ”

Wang Biao smiled proudly, pointed to the crowd and said, "Lord Zhou, where do you see the thieves have any ladders?" Even if you get to the bottom of the city, can you climb up through the cracks in the bricks? The lowly ones are that they come closer! ”

Seeing that the displaced people at the front had trembled and walked dozens of steps away from the wall, without waiting for Zhou and Tang to speak, Wang Biao said to himself: "Don't wait for the four-eyed dog." Signal! ”

Another sharp arrow pierced the sky, and before the end of the whistle disappeared, Wu Dazhuang's echo was heard in Jiangdong.

"Prepare for war!" Wang Biao roared loudly and pulled out his waist knife from the ground.

"Boom." The sword and shield soldiers held the shield in their left hand, and drew their steel knives with their right hands......

"Ahh

Suddenly, there was a scream from under the closed door, followed by a series of screams.

Before Zhou and Tang could understand from their shock, Wang Biao shouted again: "Kill!" "The knife in his hand fell, and he slashed at the soup people obliquely!

Tang Guji's head rolled against the wall with the small half of his neck attached, his eyes wide open in horror, and he didn't understand what was going on until he died.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Zhou Jun turned around and ran. A spear pierced diagonally from behind, and the tip of the spear burst out of the front of the thigh! The spearman then twisted the barrel of the gun, and the prismatic head of the spear spun in a sharp circle in the flesh, and pulled it out, bringing out a few pieces of bone stubble. Zhou Jun, who was in tears of pain, rolled on the ground, a steel knife slashed in the air, Zhou Jun subconsciously raised his arm to protect his head, and then the small half of his arm fell to his chest, and then rolled to the ground. Before fainting, the last thing that caught Zhou Jun's eyes was a guard he had personally selected yesterday who was about to slash the second knife with a sly smile.

"Don't pay attention to this dog official, rush to close the door!" Wang Biao commanded, leading a group of sword and shield soldiers and a group of spearmen to fly down the horse.

The other soldiers, who already knew their mission, each formed a small group of three or five people, and rushed towards the stunned defenders on the wall with a shout......

When Wang Biao rushed off the road, Liu Si, who heard Wu Dazhuang's arrows echoing, had already put down the gatekeeper, and his soldiers rose up at the same time, most of them cut down their targets, and the unsuspecting defenders were crying and scattering in all directions. Ten spearmen quickly formed a semi-circular defensive formation in the doorway, delaying a possible counterattack, some of the sword and shield men joined the battle group, and a few others joined forces to lift the huge latch.

At the same time as the Nanjin Pass portal was opened, the southeast of the other side of the Jialing River and the direction of Xiguan had already ignited a sky-high fire: the four-eyed dog Wu Dazhuang had also succeeded.

Cheng Xi led everyone into the gate, and the homeless people greeted the "officers and soldiers" with green cloths on their bodies warmly, and at the same time beat the guys who were running around with sticks and hoes, and laughed and scolded each other: "What are you afraid of, Lao Tzu has already said that something is wrong!" ”

"Chase quickly, chase quickly, don't teach the turtle son to get away!"

The two Xiongguan barriers to the south of Boryeong Province have fallen.
