Chapter 423, the new captain of Jianzhou
The east gate of Jianzhou City was wide open, thousands of soldiers under the command of Jianzhou Captain An Chongbao, went straight to the camp of Weiwangfu not far from the city gate, the colonel of Weiwangfu saw it from afar, and immediately reported to the Chinese military tent, Tang Jiusheng ordered the fat man to take a hundred soldiers to stop the enemy army, and the rest of the soldiers immediately packed up their things, pulled out the camp and set up the village, and quickly retreated to Lao Yeling. These soldiers had already prepared and immediately moved when they heard the order.
An Chongbao saw that there were only more than 100 soldiers left on the opposite side to fight the enemy, and the rest fled with the carriage and the baggage, and laughed contemptuously, "Damn, leaving this little person behind the palace? It's not enough for Lao Tzu to stuff his teeth! I knew that I would go out of the city yesterday to do you!" An Chongbao led his troops to come over, and ordered the crossbowmen to release arrows, and suddenly the arrows rained down on the official road.
The fat man slashed his round double hammer and fired carved arrows, and more than 100 soldiers hid behind the giant shields that had been prepared long ago, forming a shield array with no dead ends, and they didn't even show their heads. Seeing that the rain of arrows was ineffective, An Chongbao immediately ordered the crossbowmen to dodge, and the spearmen formed a phalanx to attack forward.
The two spearmen of the hundred-man team formed a step formation, and rushed to the soldiers and horses of the Weiwangfu in a neat manner, and the fat man saw that the other party was underestimating the enemy, so he actually sent the spearmen to charge directly, turned around and shouted, "Let go of the arrow!" and flashed to the side. The soldiers of the Weiwang Mansion immediately lowered their shields, and dozens of soldiers raised their crossbows and fired arrows at the unprotected spearmen in the infantry formation, and immediately dozens of spearmen were hit by arrows and fell to the ground and wailed. A huge gap suddenly appeared in the middle of the spearmen's formation.
The fat man saw that there was a gap in the spearmen's infantry formation, his heart was ecstatic, he took the lead, and roared wildly, "Brothers, throw the shield, rush with me!" The fat man opened the sledgehammer, broke through the spearmen's infantry formation, and rushed straight to An Chongbao, who was commanding in the formation, An Chongbao hurriedly ordered the flag captain to change the military flag, and the two hundred sword soldiers in the front row set up a position, trying to stop the fat man.
As soon as the swordsmen lined up in formation, the fat man was already brandishing a sledgehammer and rushing in front of him. The fat man opened the two sledgehammers in his hand, and the swordsmen smashed them on their backs, and hundreds of palace soldiers also followed into battle after cutting down the spearmen, and the two sides fought each other in short combat. The fat man led hundreds of soldiers to rampage in An Chongbao's array, and the soldiers and horses in the front of Jianzhou County were scattered and fled, and they were defeated.
An Chongbao of the Chinese army was furious, and ordered the crossbowmen around him to release the arrows, the crossbowmen just raised the crossbow, and the fat man had already killed in front of him, and the fat man urged the horse, and the big white horse jumped up more than a foot high in the air and flew into the crossbowman array.
The crossbowmen were so frightened that they abandoned their crossbows and fled for their lives. An Chongbao was furious, picked up the meteor hammer and was about to fight the fat man, but was solemnly pulled by the captain of Zhiguo beside him.
Captain Zhiguo solemnly and bitterly persuaded: "Captain An, you must not! You are the chief general in the army, and your task is to command the army, and you can't fight alone! If you make a mistake, who will command this team? Besides, we still have a backhand!"
When the fat man saw An Chongbao rushing up by himself, he returned to the horse and left, and shouted loudly: "Brothers of Weiwangfu, withdraw for me!"
An Chongbao was furious, and rearranged the formation, with the Chinese army as the front team and the rear army as the middle army, so that the disabled army could be regrouped and be responsible for the rear of the palace. An Chongbao led thousands of soldiers to continue the pursuit of the fat man, and at the same time sent Captain Zhiguo back to the city to mobilize reinforcements. An Chongbao has already seen that the fat man and these more than 100 people are just bait.
But the army led by An Chongbao was just testing the strength of the other party. What An Chongbao didn't expect was that
After a short period of fighting, he lost more than 100 soldiers in vain, but the fat man didn't even have a single wounded soldier on his side, and An Chongbao was really angry with smoke on his head! He wanted to get back the loss immediately, eat the fat man and the more than 100 soldiers first, and then go to hunt down and kill those people in front of him.
But the more than 100 soldiers in charge of the Wei Wangfu did not look back, just walked with their heads down. After Jiang Fatzi personally broke off, he only kept a distance of about 300 steps from An Chongbao's forward team, and the fat man was full of luck as he walked, shouting: "Come on! The fat man is waiting for you to come and die! We have an ambush in front, you bastards, cowards, dare to come and chase your fat man?"
Seeing the fat man's provocation, An Chongbao also scolded back with full luck: "Dead fat pig, there is a kind of you don't run, you stop, let's fight again! Believe it or not, I'll beat your shit out!"
The fat man laughed wildly and stopped the horse, "The fat man is hot here, if you want to eat, come quickly, the fat man is waiting for you here!"
An Chongbao secretly rejoiced in his heart, as long as you don't run, I will have a way to catch you! Except for the main general riding a horse, both sides are infantry, and the foot distance is not fast, and Tang Jiusheng and others can still be seen driving the carriage from a distance, walking on the official road unhurriedly, and withdrawing in the direction of Lao Yeling.
At this time, An Chongbao's army was already seven miles away from the city. The drawbridge at the east gate of Jianzhou City was lowered, the city gate was wide open, and Captain Zhiguo, who returned to the city to mobilize reinforcements, solemnly led thousands of cavalry out of the city to catch up. The sound of horses' hooves rumbled, and the earth shook as it shook. You must know that there are only 1,000 cavalry in Jianzhou, and all of them have been pulled out to chase the soldiers of Weiwangfu, which shows that An Zhongbao is bound to win!
Originally, Ye Tengjiao didn't want to transfer troops to pursue Tang Jiusheng, but An Chongbao forced him to send troops with a knife, and it happened that at this time, Jing Luo made the Yamen Feige pass the book, and Niu Mandi had already made up his mind to turn his face with King Wei, and sent 3,000 soldiers and horses to quickly reinforce Jianzhou, and he wanted to eat the army of only 500 people in King Wei's Mansion outside Jianzhou City. At the same time, he sent troops to block the road to Luye City, and wrote a letter for help to Yin Quan, the king of Pingxi.
Niu Mandi didn't know that the more than 500 soldiers outside Jianzhou City were his subordinates, and the people in Jianzhou City also didn't know about it.
In this case, An Chongbao first took a thousand infantry out of the city to test, if the situation is not good, he will decisively withdraw to the city, An Chongbao also let a thousand cavalry be ready to go out of the city to pursue at any time, and there are two thousand infantry on standby, waiting for reinforcements at any time. The 8,000 garrisons of Jianzhou County have all entered a state of combat readiness, and An Chongbao has made up his mind to fight to the death with the soldiers and horses of the Weiwang Mansion.
A thousand cavalry under the leadership of Captain Zhiguo, quickly caught up with An Chongbao's team ten miles outside the city, An Chongbao saw that the cavalry chased up, and was overjoyed, and immediately ordered the infantry to give way, and he personally led the cavalry to chase the fat man, and caught up with the more than 100 infantry in the blink of an eye, and the fat man immediately let the infantry form a shield array, and then rode alone to block the road, laughing wildly, "An Chongbao, Jianzhou City has been occupied by the ambush of King Wei, why don't you quickly dismount and surrender?"
An Chongbao saw that the fat man was surrounded, but he was still so determined, he was suspicious, and looked back in the direction of Jianzhou City, and could only see the thick smoke billowing in the city from a distance. When those cavalrymen heard that Jianzhou City was occupied by King Wei's ambush soldiers, they all panicked, and when they looked back, they saw smoke rising from the direction of Jianzhou City, and they were all shocked.
The fat man roared loudly: "Cavalry brothers, now Jianzhou has been taken by King Wei's army, you are all good sons of my Great Shang Kingdom, your duty is to protect your family and defend the country, you are neither An Chongbao's private army, nor Ye Tengjiao's private army, you belong to Jianzhou, belong to King Wei, and belong to the imperial court!
The thief dared to chase and kill the soldiers of the Wei Wangfu, and the crime was unforgivable, and he would have been ordered by the king to kill An Chongbao, the anti-thief! As long as you do not follow this anti-thief, you will be protected from your guilt! I hope you will continue to serve the imperial court and follow the general to win his wife and son in the field!"
The fat man's words were all ordered by Tang Jiusheng in advance, and it was not easy to memorize them. When An Chongbao's cavalry heard the fat man's words, they all hesitated and exchanged words with each other, if Jianzhou was really gone, where else could they go? Could it be that the officers and soldiers should not be left to do it, and go up the mountain to become bandits?
An Chongbao's muscles twitched on his face, and he lifted the meteor hammer and shouted: "Brothers, don't listen to his nonsense, whoever can kill this dead fat pig, Lao Tzu will reward five hundred taels of silver!" An Chongbao was helpless, and was ready to go into battle with the fat man in person, as long as he defeated the fat man, his morale would naturally recover.
The fat man saw that An Chongbao's side was already disheartened, and he laughed proudly. Captain Zhiguo behind An Chongbao asked solemnly and softly: "Captain An, if Jianzhou is really lost, then what are we going to do now? I don't care about others, I only listen to you, you command, you say that I will never beat a chicken!"
An Chongbao sighed, "We have no way to retreat, we can only work hard to move forward and kill this dead fat pig! The reinforcements sent by Niu Jinglu's envoy are already on the way, and it's a big deal that we will join forces again and recapture Jianzhou!"
Zheng gritted his teeth and looked at the fat man, nodded and said, "Okay! Since these soldiers are disobedient, let's go up together, kill this dead fat pig first, and stabilize the morale of the army!" As he spoke, he pulled out his saber and pointed at the fat man.
An Chongbao sighed, there was such a loyal one left around him! An Chongbao nodded and said: "Okay, let's go together, you left and me right, let's attack this dead fat pig!"
Zheng nodded and said, "Okay, let's kill him together!" Zheng Zheng immediately urged the horse forward, and he was about to cut the fat man. When Zheng Chong and An Chongbao were about to pass by, Zheng Chong's face suddenly turned hideous, and he slashed at An Chongbao with a knife in his hand, An Chongbao felt a cool breeze in the back of his head, and before he could react, his head had already fallen to the ground.
He solemnly slashed An Chongbao with a knife, turned over and dismounted, lifted An Chongbao's head, turned around and said loudly to the cavalry: "Brothers, the anti-thief An Chongbao has been beheaded by me! King Wei has forgiven everyone for the sins of thieves, from today on, we are the cavalry under the jurisdiction of King Wei's Mansion, and no one will dare to deduct our military salary anymore! This fat man will be our captain of Jianzhou in the future, acting general of Jianzhou!"
The fat man was overjoyed, "Good boy! Raising soldiers for a thousand days, using soldiers for a while, is really good!"
Solemnly carrying An Chongbao's head, he strode to the fat horse, and knelt down on one knee, "The last general of Jianzhou County is solemn, see Captain Jianzhou!"
As soon as An Chongbao died, those cavalrymen were immediately leaderless, and when they saw Captain Zhiguo solemnly saying that this fat man was the new captain of Jianzhou, since he had a new leader, who was he not messing with?
The fat man's mouth couldn't close, he turned over and jumped down from the horse, put the sledgehammer aside, and helped Zheng Zheng up first, "Captain Zheng, please get up!" and then said loudly: "Brothers, get up, we will be a family in the future, you are all my subordinates, follow the fat man and I eat and drink spicy food, fucking thieves!"
Zheng nodded and said, "Yes, fuck the thief!" Someone immediately shouted: "Yes, fuck the thief!"
That afternoon, outside the east gate of Jianzhou City, the sound shook all over the world: "Fuck the thief!"
