Chapter 57: Encirclement and Annihilation
Rushing during the day, Zhao Ming found that it was a very unwise choice.
When I looked up, it seemed that the whole sky had turned a fiery red, and the baking earth was like a microwave oven, and the steaming people couldn't stop gasping for breath.
The horses were constantly spewing hot air.
Everyone almost didn't sleep all night, and they all ate dry food on the way, and they began to rush back without eating a mouthful of hot food in the city.
Even a man of iron can't bear it.
The horses were even more unbearable.
"Zhao.... Zhao Ye, do you want us to rest? I couldn't walk on this hot day. ”
The monkey's tongue spit out, but it was still not shirtless, and the military uniform had long been dry and wet and dry on the surface of the body because of sweat.
All exuded a disgusting aura.
Zhao Ming also frowned, looked back at the donkey convoy that had fallen behind for a long distance, and then looked at the tired brothers who were almost clinging to the horseback.
Dashan didn't say a word, but the dry and white lips also showed that he didn't feel well.
Zhao Ming was also uncomfortable, he knew that he would have a good rest in the city for a day, and it would not be too late to hurry at night.
The main thing is that with so many small yellow croakers, he also had to set off early.
"Rest for a quarter of an hour, and continue to set off in a quarter of an hour!"
Zhao Ming beckoned everyone to rest, and he also turned over and dismounted, and this time the whole person fell to the ground with his buttocks, and his buttocks and the hard ground collided solidly, grinning in pain.
They are tired, and Zhao Ming is actually even more tired.
He has been leading the charge last night, such a ragtag army in a ragtag army, if you want to integrate them and sharpen them, you have to have someone to act as a sword to break a bloody path for them, so as to continuously expand everyone's self-confidence.
Since fleeing, he has only eaten less than ten days of full food, and his body and bones have not been adjusted well, and Zhao Ming can't bear these twists and turns.
Seeing that they could rest on the spot, everyone was also relieved, and they all sat on the ground and leaned against each other, and no one wanted to speak.
It's just that before Zhao Ming and his party had rested for more than five minutes, several fast horses rushed towards this side.
"Zhao Ye! Yes.... Someone! ”
One of them began to chant before he could dismount from his horse.
Rest and rest, Zhao Ming did not let down his vigilance, and still released the brothers who acted as scouts to patrol around.
This check really found out that there was a problem.
"Something's wrong?"
Hearing the movement, Zhao Ming opened his eyes suddenly.
"Zhao Ye! Someone appears in the east! A lot of people are riding horses and don't look like ordinary people! ”
The man quickly recounted, the meaning of this was obvious, it was not an ordinary person, and it was not explicitly said that it was an army, so it was probably a bandit.
"Get up for Lao Tzu and get on the horse!!"
With a condensed expression, Zhao Ming quickly turned over and shouted.
This time, it was also to wake up the brothers who were just about to take a nap, and they were unhappy, but they didn't dare to complain.
In last night's fight, Zhao Ming successfully proved in their hearts that they would follow this young man and eat and drink spicy food in the future.
Hundreds of people lined up in unison, turning over and getting on their horses in unison.
Because he had just woken up, this movement was a little sluggish, but after a few bumps on the horse, the hot wind blew, and the person was a lot more sober.
——
"See clearly? Are they resting in place? ”
"Yes! The brothers saw it for real. ”
"Good! All right! A godsend! ”
Han Laosan laughed, and turned to look at the two people standing side by side on horseback.
One of the two of them wrapped a strip of rag around one eye, and the other had two legs, which was obviously long and short, and it looked very wrong.
These two middle-aged people are naturally Cao Blind and Liu Cripple.
The drought began to show signs last year, and this year there is no harvest.
Now there are countless bandits of all sizes in this Guanzhong land, and their three forces are still some of the most powerful figures in this Weinan land.
Because of this, there is a lot of friction between them.
"Han Dangjia, since we have inquired clearly, then let's do it without further ado, Lao Tzu was not called by you to come to see the play."
The first to be helpless was Liu Cripple, although he was a cripple, his temper was the most hot.
The trading done on weekdays is also the most shameful.
In comparison, Cao Blind is not so anxious, he is not a bandit himself, but the master of the family needs him to put on this layer of skin.
The first is to protect Zhuangzi, and the second is to use simpler and crude methods to obtain benefits in this year of great disaster.
"What's the hurry? I'll start by saying that I can only get 400 guns here, and I don't have more. And your men will rush ahead.
Say okay, I'll take care of the guys, and you guys will help! ”
"Lao Cao, you!"
Hearing this, Liu Cripple was immediately annoyed.
Seeing this, Han Laosan hurriedly rounded the field, "Hey, Lao Liu, after all, people have taken out guns, and we have many brothers and brothers."
Besides, Lao Liu, don't think we don't know, the brothers in you will die and catch a batch.
It's all some disaster victims, and you feel sorry for the farts when you die? ”
Han Laosan's words are true.
The three waves of them were gathered together, and the number was about a thousand.
Among them, Liu Cripple alone brought six or seven hundred brothers over, and Han Laosan and Cao Blind combined were more than three hundred people.
But Liu Cripple and these people are almost the worst, not to mention the ragged clothes and weak energy, and there are only more than two or three hundred horses.
Weapons are everything, and those with knives are the most normal.
Most of the rest were victims who had been forcibly dragged in.
In ancient times, Liu Cripple's behavior would definitely be able to accumulate his powerful momentum in a short time, but it can't be put now.
With a few guns, he is a grass platform team, and he is vulnerable.
Seeing that both of them were aiming their fingers at themselves, Liu Cripple was secretly annoyed in his heart, but he still gritted his teeth and nodded.
"Okay, Lao Tzu let his brothers go first, but if you don't press it up, when Lao Tzu is defeated, none of us will be able to eat this mouthful of meat!"
As he spoke, Liu Cripple had already driven the brothers to start charging forward.
But he was not a fool either, first let the cavalry henchmen drive the victims forward, and the cavalry pressed behind.
Cao Blind and Han Laosan glanced at each other, and scattered their respective hands to both sides.
Since they plan to eat this logistics escort force, they will not give the other party the possibility of escaping.
"Second brother, do you think that this kid Liu Cripple will eat this batch of goods by himself, right?" Han Laosan rode a horse and asked Li Shundang on the side.
After all, this Liu cripple has six or seven hundred people, although they are all composed of disaster victims and a group of old bandits, and they don't have a gun. But these people are not afraid of death.
And the troops on the other side don't look like any elite.
Through their observations, the group of people looked listless and seemed to be very vulnerable.
"I don't know! But no matter how this cripple is beaten or what it looks like, we can always eat a piece of meat. ”
Li Shundang shook his head and said lightly.
