Chapter 351: Night Attack on Spring Breeze Town
Chapter 351: Night Attack on Spring Breeze Town
Ji Rentu led a group of black horsemen under his command and shuttled rapidly in the dense forest in the middle of the night. This place is not far from the border of Chunfeng Town, and it can be reached by crossing the hill not far in front of it, and then ten miles to the west.
But the commander of the Black Cavalry was in a very bad mood at this time. The loss of Chunfeng Town is not only a loss of most of his family's wealth, but more importantly, he will completely lose his right to speak in Ji Shenfu.
If it is said that half a year ago, the defeat of Ji Rentu and his troops in Liangchengang can be attributed to the long-term premeditation of Yinren's side, or the dumping of the pot on Helian Tiexin is a straw bag, then this time in the battle of Chunfeng Town, the bald man could not shirk it as before.
He knew his eldest brother, although he usually dressed as a scribe and looked pleasant. But in fact, he is a ruthless person, and the other party will not give up because of the so-called brotherhood.
How can a person who can go to the position of the county magistrate be restrained by this so-called brotherly love, and the murderous knife in his hand?
Ji Rentu shook the reins in his hand and said secretly in his heart: I have to think of a way to get this matter out! I originally wanted to make meritorious service for my crimes, but I didn't want to provoke a commotion! Hmph, Yan Mingbo, Li Chengqian! Lao Tzu remembers you.
Just when the bald man secretly made up his mind in his heart, a group of black-armored soldiers appeared in the border land.
The first man in armor held a pitch-black halberd in his hand, and in addition to a group of black-armored soldiers around him, there were several other people, who were not idle at first glance.
The person who came was none other than Qin Kai and others who were chasing Zhang Ming and his party.
"My lord, the person who is in front of you at the border is a dog!" said Batu, who was dressed in a black and red coat, in a deep voice.
Hearing what the other party said, everyone present couldn't help but look at it. Although it was late at night, the people present were all masters of the chivalrous realm, even if they didn't have the so-called night vision ability, they could take a general view of this camp.
Especially the man in armor who is the leader, as a general who defends the city, he is extremely familiar with the battle. In addition, his cultivation was the highest among the people present, and he also came into contact with some methods of using internal energy. Without Batu to say, Qin Kai noticed this camp formation.
This method of marching and arranging the formation is very different from the formation of various sects of martial arts today, and the marching formation is nothing more than this "ten formations of military battle". They are: the long snake formation, the two dragons out of the water array, the heaven and earth three talent array, the four doors of the bottom array, the five tigers and sheep array, the six Ding Liujia array, the seven-star Beidou array, the eight-door golden lock array, the nine-son chain array, and the ten-sided ambush array.
These ten arrays can be transformed into each other, and there are endless variations:
Attack the head or tail of a long snake formation, and turn the other end to form a two-dragon water array.
In the middle, it is the three talents of heaven and earth.
The two ends retreated, forming a four-door bottom formation, interspersed with each other, and turned into a five-tiger flock formation.
Then it is arranged according to the Liuding Liujia, that is, the Liuding Liujia Formation.
Then half of it was pulled into a long snake formation, and half was like a four-door bottom array, that is, the seven-star Beidou array.
Circle around, arrange the array according to the Bagua Array, leave eight exits, and turn into a square, that is, the Eight Gates Golden Lock Array.
According to the arrangement of the nine palaces, each grid of soldiers will be interspersed, gradually like a whole, intersecting each other, that is, the nine sons of the chain array.
Exhausting the enemy army through various hidden weapons and traps is an ambush formation on all sides.
Compared with the way of formation in each major sect, the Ten Formations of Military Struggle pay more attention to the use of formations, rather than change and innovation. Just like the "Seven Killing Arrays" that Yi Xifeng pondered by himself at the beginning, used to deal with the Blood Moon Greedy Wolf, this kind of formation that integrates the rules of heaven and earth is the main direction of the research of the various major schools of martial arts.
Batu's son, Baruch, this time Bude is known for its defense of the four-door bottom formation, two in the front and two in the front, used for attacks in both directions, have a good effect.
"Yes, this bottom array is elegantly arranged, and there is a valve between the two doors, which is convenient for the soldiers to go back and forth, and it is also convenient to change the formation. "Qin Kai is worthy of being a veteran general in the army, and he can see the advantages and disadvantages of this formation at a glance.
There are only ten kinds of formations in the ten formations of the military battle, but each general has a different understanding of it, and more or less will add some of his own understanding, or small valves, small changes. After all, the way of the military formation has always been about ten kinds of formations and a hundred kinds of people!
The crowd did not tarnish any further and leaned over to them.
......
"Report, young master, a team of people came from behind, I think the head of the line should be the master and Lord Qin. A black-armored soldier bowed to Baruch.
The young man's heart was relieved, and he immediately ordered the soldiers to meet him first.
Soon Baruch joined the crowd, and his two hundred black-armored soldiers were naturally returned to his father.
"Rook, I've seen Lord Qin, Gang Leader Yin, and Mr. Xie!" Baruch said, bowing down.
Yin Shisan and Xie Huangqi naturally forced out a smile and nodded. Qin Kai, on the other hand, asked a few words with a smile and mentioned a few more words.
"Rook, did you find anything unusual before?" Batu knew that everyone was carrying a task at this time, so he stopped talking nonsense and asked directly to the point.
The young man thought for a while, shook his head and replied: "I have already taken someone to check again, and I haven't found anyone who can. ”
When everyone heard this reply, they had some doubts in their hearts, they had just found the corpse of the sandman team in the woods, which was obviously done by Zhang Ming's group, and the two places were less than ten miles apart, although the speed was not fast, it was to prevent a trace of detail from being missed, so that the group could escape.
Now listening to Baruch's statement, could it be that Zhang Ming and these people disappeared out of thin air?
"Are you thinking about it, in this half-burnt incense time, haven't you seen anyone pass through here?" It was the yellow lion who had been silent on the side just now, Xie Huangqi.
The ten-man sand team was his direct subordinate, and he didn't want to let go of this group of people, they fled from under his nose.
The young man frowned and pondered for a moment, then replied, "If you want to say that someone has passed through here, there really is! A team of sandmen from your Sand River Gang has just passed by here. ”
"Sand Squad?" Yin Shisan was startled at first, and then looked at the yellow lion on the side.
Xie Huangqi shook his head with an ugly face and explained: "I sent the ten people just now, and the rest of the group is on a mission and can't move." ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone present still understood the original nature of the matter, and their faces became very gloomy!
Baruch obviously didn't understand what they meant, and frowned and wondered, "Ten people? Only eight people just came." ”
"That's right, they killed my ten-man squad and stripped eight of them of their clothes!" Xie Huangqi explained in a hateful voice.
"What? You say, these eight people are the spies we want to catch?" Baruch was also a little surprised, and after a short time he realized that something was wrong with this matter, and immediately asked: "No, I have met a few of them, and I have asked them some questions, if the spies are pretending, how can they know so much detail?"
Hearing this, Yin Shisan's face became even more gloomy, but he could only stubbornly reply: "Among this group of spies in Chunfeng Town, there are people from Yinren Town, as well as ...... And one of my Sand River Gang helmsmen!"
"What?!, you're a spy on yourself?!," Baruch asked angrily.
"Okay, this matter is not your business!" Batu said to stop his son, although this matter is related to the Shahe Gang, but it has to be investigated carefully, in fact, Yin Shisan is also very wronged.
His good concubine ran away with others, and before leaving, he gave away his own casino! This made Yin's gang leader, who has always only bullied others and rarely bullied, a little unresponsive.
After all, the last time he was bullied was when he was very young, since his parents were killed by officials, this ruthless young man has been constantly in the market without fear of getting out. Although he has also experienced several life and death, when he and several brothers became the Sand River Gang, this kind of bullying has never happened again.
And this time, it undoubtedly made him relive the grievances he tasted when he was young.
"It's okay, General Ba, this matter is indeed a mistake made by our Shahe Gang, no matter what, I Yin can't get out of it. The cold-faced man stuck out his tongue and licked his lips, and replied with a smile.
Xie Huangqi saw the anger of his boss and wanted to say a few words of comfort, but before he could say anything, the man in armor on the side suddenly interjected: "Someone is coming!"
Everyone was shocked, they naturally would not doubt Qin Kai's judgment, as the three strongest people in Fallen Leaf City, he and Ji Rentu were respectively called "Beiren Tu and South Tiebi", plus Yin Shisan, who was in charge of the affairs of the market and rivers and lakes, the three of them could be described as a real powerhouse.
After all, Yin Shisan was born in the wild road, although his own martial arts realm was no worse than Qin Kai, but his exploration of his own martial arts was not as good as these martial artists who had the power of the gate lords behind him, and the Yin gang leader did not master the exploration of the internal strength.
This is also why when Qin Kai appeared on Zhang Yan's battlefield, Zhang Ming was able to estimate in advance, but he could only wait until the man in armor appeared.
Soon, Ji Rentu appeared in everyone's field of vision with nearly a hundred black horses. Fortunately, when Liu Dong sent troops to attack Chunfeng Town at night, he left reserve soldiers in advance, otherwise there would be only a dozen horsemen behind them at this time.
"It's Lord Ji Ren Tu!" Batu muttered as he looked at the group of soldiers in black and black armor.
Although the Six Gates and the Black Knights are the two major components of the Deciduous City military, one is responsible for maintaining order and safety in Deciduous City, and the other is responsible for going out to crusade against dissident forces.
The six gates have a full six chivalrous realm powerhouses, which is one more than Ji Rentu and the four cavalry generals under his command, so he naturally feels that his own power is more important. And these black horsemen have been fighting outside all the year round, and naturally they look down on these pampered city guards at home.
However, if you are not used to it, you are not used to it, and the fact that the two sides belong to the same side of the same force and are brother armies has changed differently.
"But General Ji?" Qin Kai not only had an advantage in numbers, but even the number of warriors in the Chivalry Realm was more than that of the other party, so he took the lead in speaking.
The bald man naturally noticed the existence of this old enemy and old friend, so he had to say loudly: "Brother Qin is polite!
Since they were all their own people, the two sides no longer hesitated and quickly brought the soldiers together. In a short period of time, the 200 people who were originally stationed here directly skyrocketed to more than 700 people, and there were all kinds of infantry from the cavalry road.
"Brother, Yinren has made an alliance with the spring breeze!" asked the bald man Masashi.
Everyone was shocked, and they suddenly found that tonight's fierce news was really more fierce than the other! Everyone did not dare to respond to this, so they had to wait for the other party to continue.
When Ji Rentu saw everyone's reaction, his heart sank, and then he looked at Qin Kai, who was the leader, his eyes flickered, knowing that the other party didn't know the news, and then thinking about what Qin Hongyao said before, he realized that he was fooled.
He was just about to have a seizure, when he caught a glimpse of Yin Shisan, who was contemplative, the bald man's eyes rolled, and he instantly made up his mind in his heart.
"Bah, you guy, you dare to come here!" he said as he raised his horsewhip and pointed at Yin 13 in front of him. And Xie Huangqi beside him, frowned slightly, and took two steps forward, obviously very dissatisfied with Ji Rentu's tone.
"I just met a killer under you, who actually protected a woman, that person I still know, isn't it your good look, named Red Mole!
Except for Yin Shisan and Xie Huangqi, the rest of the people couldn't help but exchange glances when they heard this.
If it was said that before, Yin Shisan was implicated because of a small helmsman under him, it was inevitable that he would still be a little wronged. But if it's a concubine, this matter is a little troublesome.
Seeing that Yin Shisan's face was getting more and more ugly, Qin Kai stepped forward and said, "Brother Tu doesn't know, those seven people are not the killers under the command of the Yin Gang Leader. ”
The bald man finally found a wingman who could help him attract firepower in the future, how could he let it go so easily, and without waiting for the man in armor to continue, he interrupted: "That little girl named Red Mole, I've seen it, it's definitely her and I can't bear it!"
Qin Kai continued: "It's her who is right, but this person is a traitor, or a spy in Chunfeng Town. ”
"Spy?" asked Ji Rentu as he feigned doubt.
"That's right, these eight people are not a sand squad sent by the Shahe Gang, but a group of people pretending to be them! They are very strong and resourceful!" As the guards of the Southwest Xuanwu Gate, they can be regarded as having officially fought with them, so they naturally have the right to make an evaluation.
Ji Rentu glanced at Liu Dong and Hu Qingzheng behind him, and then breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I see, I also said that this Chunfeng Town is really allied with Yinren Town?"
This sentence is not pretended by the bald man, but it is really relieved. From the moment he saw the expressions of the crowd in front of him when he heard the news, he put his heart back in half of his stomach, and in this way, his plan was not a complete failure.
"Brother Rentu, what are your plans next?" Qin Kai asked, obviously the man in armor attached great importance to Ji Rentu's suggestion. Even if the vast majority of the soldiers on the field were under his jurisdiction at this time, and the other party only brought a hundred iron horsemen to join.
It's not that Qin Kai's status is lower than that of Ji Rentu, but that it lies in their ultimate goal. Everyone in the audience came here for their own purpose.
Yin Shisan is very simple and direct, that is, to kill Qin Hongyao and deal with traitors within the gang.
Batu's goal is also very clear, to catch the real culprit who destroyed the southwest Xuanwu Gate.
Qin Kai is to determine one thing, what is the real purpose of this group, and whether it will have any impact on Ji Shen's support of the state.
And this coincided with Ji Rentu's plan, the two hurriedly glanced at each other, and then the bald man said in a deep voice: "The next plan is naturally not to let them really form an alliance! ”
Ji Rentu grinned, revealing his white teeth, and said with a smile: "Set off immediately, I'll wait for the night attack on Chunfeng Town!"
