The frost and snow of the day and the sheep soup are soaked in the snow, and the thousands of troops can drink it

Although Hongfeng Village is called a cottage, it is not surrounded by strange peaks. There is only a small stream around the hills, and it looks like a local gentry Zhuangzi.

Therefore, in the eyes of Zu Cue, there is no danger of geographical advantage, and he was caught off guard, and this battle is invincible.

At noon, the sun is shining. The bleak north wind blew the smoke rising in the red wind village crookedly, and then blew it away.

Although it has been more than half a month since he returned to Yandu Prefecture, Xiao Qingwei has not been captured, and the morale of the village is a little low. In winter, the big boss Chen Yang didn't know where to get some whole sheep, but it made a lot of jubilation in the village.

In the bitter cold of winter, what could be more pleasant than eating a bite of hot mutton soup and steamed buns. Chen Yang also seems to have intended to use this to raise the mood of his brothers, especially his brother Chen Guo, who loves this even more. Take a sip of white soup, scoop up a few slices of mutton and chew it in your mouth, the rising heat runs through your limbs, and you are satisfied.

"Second brother, is this Xiao Qing really so evil?"

Chen Yang wrapped his jacket, walked to Chen Guo's side and sat down, and pushed him with his arm.

"Hey, in my opinion, it's just a coward, a loach! slippery and don't keep his hands, in fact, there is no real ability, if he stands still, I will make him turn into mud with a hammer. ”

Chen Guo was particularly angry, his mouth was stuffed with slices of meat, he said vaguely, and patted the abductor meteor hammer beside him.

"Don't underestimate others too much, if you are poisoned to suppress your internal strength, can you still escape for more than a month under the pursuit of major forces?"

Chen Guo stopped talking, picked up the mutton soup and sipped it vigorously, making a loud "snort" sound.

Seeing this, Chen Yang shook his head, and also picked up a piece of mutton from the pot, stuffed it in, and finally chewed it. At the beginning, Hongfeng Village was created in order to be able to eat and drink as well as it is now.

"Report - big leader, no, there is a man and a horse who bypassed Luofeng Stream and went to Dazhai to kill!"

Chen Yang was stunned for a moment, immediately threw down the meat slices, wiped his hands on his jacket indiscriminately, and led Chen Guo to rush towards the gate of the village.

In front of the Red Wind Village, people shouted and neighed.

Zu Que suppressed the bandits this time, and even brought a bed crossbow. The bed crossbow stored in the palace of Yuzhang was improved by Zu Cuo himself, which increased the destructive power of the crossbow arrows, although the quasi-head was reduced a lot, but the lethality of the fortifications increased a lot, especially some wooden fortifications, and the king of Yuzhang gave the name of the city-breaking crossbow.

As soon as Chen Yang went to the wall, he knew that something was wrong.

Without giving him time to shout, Zu Que directly ordered to shoot after the city-breaking crossbow was assembled.

"Enemy attack! Ring the bell!" Chen Yang pushed the herald, who came back to his senses and hurriedly ran to the watchtower to ring the alarm bell.

Zu Cu drew a bow and arrows, and the strings were like a full moon. An arrow was fired, hitting the herald, and the corpse fell from the watchtower, shattering to pieces.

Chen Guo roared angrily, and climbed straight to the watchtower with the meteor hammer.

Zu Que's old trick was repeated, and another arrow shot out, hitting Chen Guo in the shoulder. Chen Guo snorted, relying on the foreign kung fu practiced horizontally, and forcibly received an arrow from Zu Cu, the arrow only broke through the flesh slightly, and the arrow cluster was not completely nailed into the flesh and blood.

Chen Guoyi ripped off the arrow from his shoulder, glanced at Zu Que contemptuously, and continued to climb up the watchtower like a nobody. Zu Que's red sandalwood bow also has six stones, so it is easy to block the arrow with his body, even Zu Que himself is really surprised.

The "bell bell" alarm bell finally rang, the sound was louder than usual, it was that Chen Guo, who thought that the stake that rang the bell was not strong enough, so he lifted his huge meteor hammer and threw it on the bell with all his strength.

A large bell cast of muddy iron was actually hammered by Chen Guo with a meteor hammer, and the hammer was pitted and unrecognizable.

The thieves in the village heard the bell ringing, and they couldn't care about any mutton anymore, so they hurriedly got up to look for weapons and armor.

"Bang Bang" two huge crossbow bolts broke through the wooden gate and chiseled through a large piece of the door. The exaggerated barbs of the arrows hooked the wreckage of the gate, and a long, thick hemp rope was tied to the tail of the crossbow arrow.

A group of soldiers held up the regimental sign above their heads, and trotted forward with an improvised device.

Originally, the hemp rope behind the crossbow was held by the soldiers and pulled backwards, pulling the city gate down like a tug-of-war. After inspecting the equipment yesterday, Ke Qingwei gave Zu Xuan some more convenient and quick suggestions, including about the use of this city-breaking crossbow arrow.

The gadget was Qingwei's suggestion, and a very common device was installed on it, a winch, although it was generally used for opening and closing city gates.

After Qing Wei proposed a slight improvement, as long as the hemp rope was wrapped around it, the two of them pushed the winch hard, and easily pulled the gate down, saving a lot of energy and time, and reducing casualties.

The two groups of cavalry slowly marched out from the left and right flanks of the array, began to accelerate at a short distance, and rushed towards the wall.

At this time, there were already some minions in Hongfeng Village who climbed the wall of the village and raised their bows to meet the enemy. Zu Que also accompanied the archers in the array, shooting arrows and firing back. For a while, the arrows were like flying locusts, falling on the wall, so that the defenders could not raise their heads, and only shot a few arrows sporadically, symbolically obstructing it.

The cavalry crossed the broken gate and rode into the village. The minions in the village couldn't form any formation at this time, and from the beginning of the establishment of the village to the present, no one had taught the matter of marching the battle formation.

For them, fighting was nothing more than a rush and a rout, and they were not capable of forming shields or rejecting horses to resist the cavalry.

Therefore, after more than 200 cavalry entered, the battle situation was like a one-sided massacre. How can the combat effectiveness of the bandits be compared with the well-trained private army of the palace, not to mention that they are still unprepared to fight, and the Hongfeng Zhai army is defeated like a mountain.

After the cavalry had been killing for a while, they released signal flares, signaling that the whole army could cover the killing.

After all, more than 200 horsemen could not completely annihilate more than 2,000 people, if they were accidentally dragged by the reacting foot soldiers in the not very empty terrain of the cottage, the situation would be reversed. Therefore, it is wise to take this opportunity to press the infantry and expand the results of the battle.

Leaving the archers to shoot the formation, Zu Ke led the foot soldiers and took the lead into the village.

A young man rushed out of the central tent, not yet fully clothed in armor, and rushed at a cavalryman with a sword. Zu Ke thought that the identity of the other party must be unusual, so he raised his bow and shot an arrow, which hit the young man's heart, and the young man fell to the ground without saying a word.

"Son!" Chen Yang exclaimed in surprise on the wall, his eyes cracked.

"Dog thief, kill my child, I and you are inseparable!

Chen Yang stared at the blood-red eyes, jumped straight off the wall, took advantage of the momentum, chopped down several guards, and slashed at Zu Cu with a knife.

It turned out that the young man who was killed by Zu Cu with an arrow was the young master of Hongfeng Village who was the first to shoot against Qing in the inn that day. was blasted out by Qing Wei with a punch before, and several ribs were broken, and now he is still wrapped in bandages, who would have thought that he would die under the arrow of Zu Cuo in such an unknown way.

Over there, Chen Guogang got off the lookout, smelled Chen Yang's shouting, and also carried the meteor hammer and strode to kill.

Zu Que was not in a hurry, turned the horse's head, let go of Chen Yang's steel knife, patted the horse's back, took advantage of the momentum, the sword was unsheathed, and the sword pointed directly at Chen Yang's eyebrows.
