Chapter 284: Night Battle
Li Xiao coughed violently a few times, and his handsome face turned red.
Zheng Xuanqing was a little dissatisfied, and slapped Li Xiao on the back vigorously.
Li Xiao laboriously swallowed the steamed bun that was stalked in his throat, and then said with a smile: "Don't worry, I was choked by the steamed bun just now, and I never meant to laugh at you." ”
Zheng Xuanqing glanced at Li Xiao: "Don't always talk about me." You're much older than me, and you're twenty-one this year! When do you plan to marry a daughter-in-law? ”
Li Xiao and Wang Wei's little thing, Zheng Xuanqing also knows very well.
Li Xiao said without thinking: "When Qinglong Village is suppressed, I will marry Wang Wei." ”
Zheng Xuanqing reminded: "Wang Wei's father is Wang Tong, the second leader of Qinglong Village, and now he is in the camp ten miles outside the city gate. You are an official, and your future father-in-law is a bandit, how is this possible! ”
Li Xiao's eyes flashed with determination: "That day in Qinglong Mountain, Wang Wei and Wang Tong were cut in two. Now, she has nothing to do with Wang Tong. ”
"I believe that." Zheng Xuanqing pouted: "You have to let your eldest brother believe it." ”
It is also necessary to block the mouths of the people.
That's the hardest part.
Zheng Xuanqing didn't say it directly, he was already kind.
Li Xiao was about to speak, when he suddenly heard a sharp whistle, and his expression suddenly froze. Without thinking, he got up and pulled out the long knife in his hand.
Zheng Xuanqing took a step slower and quickly stood up. The two of them rushed forward and backward towards the place where the whistle sounded.
Dozens of pro-soldiers got up and chased after them.
The whistle was sharp and sharp, and it sounded constantly. It can be seen that the situation is urgent.
By the time Li Xiao and Zheng Xuanqing arrived, the bandits who had climbed in from the city wall with a rope as a ladder had already killed all the ten soldiers who patrolled the night. The last soldier was struck in the shoulder, blood gurgling, and with his last breath, he blew the bamboo whistle in his mouth.
Zheng Xuanqing's eyes were red, and he gritted his teeth and shouted angrily: "Kill them!" ”
Li Xiao was experienced in dealing with the enemy, so he pounced without saying a word, and raised his knife to cut a bandit. The soldiers behind him rushed to the side of the city wall, cut all the ropes first, and cut off the bandits outside the city wall before turning in.
As for the dozens of bandits who have already turned in, they have become turtles in the urn, and they cannot let go of any of them.
These bandits are all murderous bandits, resisting and fleeing at the same time. Fortunately, more people heard the sound of the bamboo whistle and rushed over, catching up with the scattered bandits.
It's no longer appropriate to say that it's more like a bite between beasts, and it's important to bite each other to death in the shortest event.
Zheng Xuanqing was red-eyed, and he raised his knife to cut one over regardless of it. Boom! A piercing sound rang out behind him.
Li Xiao quickly blocked a knife for Zheng Xuanqing, and by the way, killed the bandit who attacked from behind.
"Zheng Er, calm down!" Li Xiao shouted angrily.
If he hadn't made a timely move just now, Zheng Xuanqing would have been slashed.
Zheng Xuanqing's blood was boiling at this time, where was he calm, he probably didn't even hear this sentence, and continued to raise his knife and rush forward.
Li Xiao had no choice but to fight side by side with Zheng Xuanqing, watching and listening to all directions, and blocking one or two knives for Zheng Xuanqing at any time.
I don't know how long it took for Zheng Xuanqing to realize that the bandits had been killed. His strength was also drained. He reached out and wiped his face and wiped his hand with blood.
Zheng Xuanqing couldn't help but exclaim: "I'm injured!" ”
Li Xiao snorted him angrily: "I'm hurt by a fart!" That's the blood of the bandits on your face. How are you doing, don't you count it in your heart? If it weren't for me, you would have been hit three times if you didn't say anything just now. ”
As soon as the cool breeze blew, Zheng Xuanqing's blood was diluted, and he was finally a little afraid. However, his mouth was very stiff: "I am not as good as you, and my courage is not weak at all." ”
"No, in terms of courage, I have to obey you." Li Xiao sneered and ridiculed, but still reached out to help Zheng Xuanqing.
In the past month, Zheng Xuanqing has actually never been on the city wall, nor has he really killed bandits. He took the errand, and first recruited 4,000 men, and then divided them into 40 groups of 100 men, each responsible for one or two markets, and patrolled day and night. In case a villain takes advantage of the opportunity to cause trouble.
This is also a little selfishness of General Zheng. The eldest son has lost a leg, and the second son will have to support the door in the future, so it is better to go to the battlefield less.
Zheng Xuanqing, with Li Xiao's support, walked a few steps slowly. After exhaustion, the most taboo should stop immediately and move slowly.
At that moment, another sharp whistle sounded.
This movement, at least a few miles away. It was accompanied by a burst of fire.
Zheng Xuanqing's face changed, and he gritted his teeth and said angrily: "These bandits fight all day during the day, and they don't stop at night. ”
Li Xiao sneered: "I led the forward battalion from the west gate into Beihai County today, and Zhou Sui and Wang Tong must have known about it." The Jiaodong army is coming, and the imperial army is also coming, and if they don't fight to attack the city, they will have to face an army of 20,000. ”
"If I am Zhou Sui Wang Tong, I will also attack the city day and night."
After a pause, he instructed again: "I'll lead people over now, you're exhausted tonight, so don't be reckless." Go back and get some rest. ”
Zheng Xuanqing wanted to be strong, but his legs were sore, and his wrists were weak, so he was really unable to fight again. I had to slowly return to the barracks.
……
This night, the bandits who attacked Beihai County at night came one after another, and they never stopped. Most of the bandits who climbed into the city wall were killed, and occasionally a few escaped, rushed into the houses, killed people and set them on fire.
Fortunately, there are men who patrol the night in every market. These men have knives issued by the barracks in their hands, and even if the knives are blunted by the soldiers, they are still sharp weapons.
As soon as one or two bandits moved, these men with weapons swarmed up and chopped the fleeing bandits into pulp.
It can also be seen from this that the King of the North Sea is really far-sighted.
These men are all from Beihai County, and no matter how afraid of bandits, in order to protect their families, they have to kill people with knives. When the army is weak, you can resist it for a while when you go to the city gate.
At dawn, the bandits attacked the city more and more frantically.
Hearing the sound of war drums, Li Xiao's blood surged, and he quickly went up to the city tower, and took out a clairvoyant mirror to look down at the city. I saw a young man with a fierce face raising his arms and shouting under the flying green dragon, and another tall man about forty years old beat the war drums himself.
The young man was Zhou Sui, and the forty-year-old man who beat the drum was Wang Tong, who had voted for the bandits.
It's just that the hatred is too far away.
Li Xiao shot three arrows angrily, and each time the arrow flew out, a bandit fell in response. It is a kilometer away from Wang Tong.
Wang Tong seemed to be aware of it, and glanced at the city tower from afar.
"Within three days, capture Beihai County." Zhou Sui coldly ordered: "Otherwise, we will retreat in three days." ”
The imperial army is coming. A hastily set up camp could not resist the imperial army at all.
The new July has begun.,Ask for a monthly pass~(@^_^@)~
