Chapter 162: Surrounding the Mountain and Erecting Flags
Just when the two sides were about to have a decisive battle, Lei Ming, the broken knife of Liaodong, appeared, and Lei Ming said that he had something to say.
At this moment, the situation on the field is already restless, where do you want to listen to what nonsense the idle people say, but Shi Yunshan is more stable, and still raised his hand and asked, "What do you have to say?"
Lei Ming said: "Actually, it's not that I have something to say, it's just that I met Zhang Yongjie of the Thousand Islands Sect just now, and he asked me to pass on the message to the heroes." β
When both sides on the field heard this, they both knew what Zhang Yongjie wanted to say, which was nothing more than words such as whoever killed someone today, and he would retaliate ten times more in the future.
Peng Meng was quite impatient, why did this kid surnamed Zhang always linger? He was gone, and he still had to ask someone to take the talk, which was simply strange. If this battle could have been avoided, what else did he need to say?
Many people on the field also think the same way, comparing everyone's brains and not building iron, they can avoid a big war, but they have to live and die for the whole thing.
When everyone comes here today, they say that there is no way to negotiate at all, and they can only meet in a narrow way, and the brave wins. This kid surnamed Zhang just blindly asked everyone not to fight, but there is no specific way to solve the problem, you say this is not nonsense?
The current scene, after all, is the Tianhai Immortal Sect at a disadvantage, they know that this Qiandao Zhang Yongjie will definitely ask someone to threaten Shi Yunshan, which is beneficial to them, so Li Ling said something and asked, "What is Zhang Yongjie's opinion on Qiandao?"
Liaodong Broken Knife Lei Ming was entrusted by Zhang Yongjie to ask him to bring a message to everyone, and the content of this is indeed a clichΓ©, which probably means that Zhang Yongjie will definitely avenge the loser.
Lei Ming was about to relay Zhang Yongjie's words, but Shi Yunshan, Peng Meng didn't want to hear it. Shi Yunshan was already afraid of this, Zhang Yongjie, who acted uneasily and played his cards, and finally regained his composure at this moment, how could he accept negative thoughts again?
Therefore, Shi Yunshan decisively gave the order to attack, after all, since this Lei Ming did not say anything, Shi Yunshan can still insist that this Lei Ming did not bring the words in the future, and continue to make false promises with Zhang Yongjie.
All of a sudden, there were battles in the square, and the sound of killing shook the sky. Zhang Yongjie saw this scene clearly on the mountain. But the distance was too far away, and I couldn't hear what the people on the field were saying.
Zhang Yongjie sighed, he actually knew that these people were not persuasive, and they had to fight you to the death. Looking at the chaos in the Mingyang Palace opposite, Zhang Yongjie was lying on the ground as if he was in prostration, looking at the sky.
The conflict of interests, Zhang Yongjie for the first time realized how strong the driving force of the conflict of interests is.
Since ancient times, there has been a saying that some people die for money, and birds die for food, once it comes to the conflict of interests, there is no reasonable solution, and it is impossible to avoid a bloody battle to the end.
The six monkeys exchanged some dry food and water for everyone to eat. The six monkeys took a few pieces of baked cakes and a skin bag of water and handed them to Zhang Yongjie.
Zhang Yongjie didn't have the appetite to enjoy it, pinching the baked cake in his hand, full of emotion. In his mind, the image of the bronze Taoist tearing the baked cake and eating in front of him many times came to his mind.
Although the bronze Taoist has done many evils, he is a living person after all, and he died under his own sword. Zhang Yongjie's feelings in his heart cannot be described in words.
The six monkeys were squatting aside to eat baked cakes, Zhang Yongjie pointed to the scene of the fight in Mingyang Palace, and asked, "Is it good-looking?"
The six monkeys twitched their mouths and said, "Wonderful, hehe." β
Zhang Yongjie was speechless and said: "Why do people always refuse to work hard in their own acres and threes of land with peace of mind, but want to come out and grab food everywhere, and have to live a life of licking blood from the knife edge?"
The six monkeys didn't realize that Zhang Yongjie was asking him what he was asking, and the four monkeys came over to join in the fun and said: "The six monkeys are this life, where does he have an acre and three points of land? Hehe, our group of street slickers, all of them are full of food, and the whole family is not hungry." β
Yes, these street in the realm of Yandu, they don't even have land, what kind of hard work are they talking about? They can only wander and wander between heaven and earth, Zhang Yongjie couldn't answer for a while, so he had to pay attention to the bloody battle in Mingyang Palace.
There was a scuffle in the square, and the sound of killing shook the sky, and the ordinary members of the Tianhai Immortal Sect had all cowered in the harem at this moment, and the women, children and old people were decreasing little by little, presumably moving to the secret path.
Li Ling, who was dressed in black, had already retreated to the harem at this moment, and was standing with Xiao Yan, who was dressed in white.
At the top of the Liaozong Palace, a large white flag has been raised, and the flag is embroidered with the iconic symbol of the Tianhai Immortal Sect, a pattern of red sunrise and blue sea.
Dense drums sounded inside Mingyang Palace, which was the picture of the east wind blowing and the war drums beating.
On the square, the Li family's men and horses wanted to encircle the masters of the Tianhai Immortal Sect many times. However, many masters of the Tianhai Immortal Sect fought back desperately, charging back and forth, trying to disrupt the Li family's formation.
After half an hour of scuffle, although the Li family was damaged, it was still strong, and there were still nearly forty masters left.
On the other hand, in the Tianhai Immortal Sect, there are only Shao Qi, Black Iron Monk, Sha Tongtian, Wang Yi'an, Wang Yiqing, Xiao Ding, Xiao Yan, Xiao Feng, Fierce Monk Tie Shoulder, Zhou Yibai, Kunlun Sanren Lumenzi, and Xiao Yuanshan and other twelve or thirteen. The rest of the masters have been strangled by the Li family.
And looking at the current situation, after all, there are few Tianhai Immortal Sect disciples, and it is already a matter of time before the entire army is wiped out.
Zhang Yongjie glanced at the situation inside the Mingyang Palace, Xiao Yan in white and Li Ling in black, the two of them were walking into the interior of the Liaozong Hall with a few entourages.
Zhang Yongjie looked at the current situation, there was no doubt that the Tianhai Immortal Sect would be defeated. Wouldn't it be that Xiao Yan's sister was going to be captured at that time? Even her life was in danger? Thinking of this, Zhang Yongjie couldn't calm down at all.
Even if he is powerless to stop the war, he must ensure Xiao Yan's safety and must not let her be hurt in the slightest.
At this time, the Li family had already sent out a red signal flare, and the gang members on the surrounding mountain had begun to launch ropes into the palace wall, and with the power of the ropes, they tried to climb into the Mingyang Palace.
This Mingyang Palace of the Tianhai Immortal Sect was already dilapidated. After the shelling of Shi Yunshan last time, a corner of the Liao Sect Hall was damaged, and it has not been repaired to this day.
If the thousands of watts on the surrounding mountain entered the Mingyang Palace and wreaked havoc, this Mingyang Palace would definitely cease to exist.
At this moment, the sound of three golden lacquer horns came from inside the Liaozong Palace. There were many dark windows under the ground of Mingyang Palace, and once the dark windows were opened, a rain of arrows shot out from the inside, shooting the tile gang on the rope to the ground.
Some archery skills are better, and the rope is directly broken, and a string of tile gangs on the rope will fall down and die.
Zhang Yongjie knew that it was obvious that these dark windows were coming from the secret passages under the ground of Mingyang Palace. It seems that when this Mingyang Palace was designed and built, it was built into a battle fortress, and it was not too easy to break through.
Nearly an hour has passed since the battle, and the fierce monk Tie Shoulder has been greatly reduced due to the cutting off of two fingers, and his force has been greatly reduced, and he has been slashed to death by Shi Yunshan at this moment.
And Kunlun Sanren Lumenzi, Xiao Yuanshan also lay on the ground, obviously going to heaven to report.
The Tianhai Immortal Sect is in danger, but the Li family still has more than 30 masters, and the more they fight, the more courageous they become.
Zhang Yongjie is on the high ground of the surrounding mountains, and he can see the overall situation better. Looking at the messy scene in front of me, it was simply shocking. The day before yesterday, it was still a beautiful Tianhai Immortal Sect Mingyang Palace, and at this moment it has become a Shura field.
And Si Lai, Six Monkeys and other street runners, looking at the scene of the battle in front of them, they were already unbearable, they all felt dizzy, and they were vomiting on the side, and they vomited out the food and drink they had just eaten.
At this moment, there were three more sounds of golden lacquer horns inside the Mingyang Palace, and Zhang Yongjie looked back and saw another black flag slowly rising above the Liaozong Palace.
A huge green dragon is embroidered on the black flag, waving in the wind. This flag, even if Zhang Yongjie has never seen it, it is not difficult to guess what it represents.
Obviously, this banner represents the 'Blue Dragon Society'. Xiao Yan and Li Ling were already standing at the top of the Liaozong Palace, looking down at the scene in the square.
Li Ling once again pulled out the 'high imitation' embroidered spring knife in his hand and shouted: "The second group of personnel, start attacking." β
Looking at this situation, even Zhang Yongjie knew that Li Ling's side still had a new force. When the two sides are extremely tired, they will send a fresh army to end with the autumn wind sweeping the leaves.
Zhang Yongjie knew that after all, Li Ling was a friend of the 'upper position', and it was obvious that in this kind of war, it was impossible for the upper position to only allocate a dozen masters to Li Ling. will definitely draw more strength to help Li Ling achieve victory.
Shi Yunshan, Peng Meng and other masters of the Li family in Luoyang, of course, could also know that the situation was about to change, and their hearts were shocked, and some of them had even begun to retreat in their hearts.
At this moment, more than 30 new troops broke out of the window on the second floor of the Liaozong Palace, brandished a big sword, and joined the battle.
Shi Yunshan and Peng Meng's mood at the moment can be described as a pain in the brain. If these thirty or so masters participated in the big battle from the beginning, there would be nothing to be afraid of.
The terrible thing is that these more than 30 new forces will rush out when everyone is exhausted, how much shock will this cause to their own hearts?
And at this moment, looking at the top of the Liao Sect Palace, the banner of the Blue Dragon Society has been pulled out, who knows how many people and horses the Blue Dragon Society has sent this time? The ghost knows if there are still three groups of people and four groups of people in Li Ling's hands?
The men and horses of the Green Dragon Society rushed out of the Liaozong Palace, and took the lead in surrounding Shi Yunshan and Peng Meng respectively.
Peng Meng took a big breath, brandished the steel knife, and slashed around. He counted several people, but he was finally outnumbered, and was pierced through the body with a sword, and his soul flew out of the sky.
Shi Yunshan fired three sleeve arrows in a row towards the Liao Sect Hall, shooting at Li Ling, but due to the time of the big war, there was no point in the head, and there was no threat.
Seeing this situation, Shi Yunshan immediately shouted: "Retreat." β
The masters of the Li family in Luoyang have shrunk into a ball at this moment, and they are fighting and retreating. Retreat towards the gate of Mingyang Palace, after all, there are still ropes at the palace gate.
In the end, Shi Yunshan took less than thirty masters and fled from the gate of Mingyang Palace in a panic to the rout.
The thousands of Li family gangs surrounded by mountains on all sides were in turmoil, but they still stayed where they were, after all, Uncle Shi did not give the order to retreat.
When it was young, three red signal flares came from Erwolf Mountain, and those Li family gangs retreated to Erwolf Mountain one after another.
The people and horses inside the Mingyang Palace rushed out and killed for a while, but the Li family had too many people to prevent them from gathering in the area of Erwolf Mountain.
There was another sound of golden lacquer horns inside the Mingyang Palace, and the masters of the Green Dragon Society returned to the interior of the Mingyang Palace one after another to be on the defensive.
Zhang Yongjie thought that Shi Yunshan was defeated from Mingyang Palace, so he would flee in a panic, and this battle would mean the end.
But the scene couldn't be more obvious. This Shi Yunshan shrank his men and horses in the area of Erwolf Mountain, trying to wait for an opportunity to fight again, but there was no sign of retreating.
Do you still want to fight? You have already lost both, and you still have to fight? One of the two giants of the Li family in Luoyang, Peng Meng has already died, and Shi Yunshan still wants to fight?
Zhang Yongjie was haggard, but the matter had come to this point, and he didn't know how to interfere, and he knew that he couldn't interfere anymore.
Since this is the case, I simply watched this excitement. Look at this Shi Yunshan and Li Ling, who is the eldest brother and who is the second brother, who is more skilled in the end, and can have the last laugh.
Of course, Zhang Yongjie secretly made up his mind that when they were finished, he would go out to settle accounts with them and settle accounts for their disregard for human life.
Zhang Yongjie immediately gathered a cannon fodder team of nearly 100 people together, and wanted to send people to the nearby market or people's homes to buy food and cloth, and then set up camp here.
These cannon fodder were originally as timid as rats and did not dare to go out. But Zhang Yongjie made it clear that those who do not obey orders can leave on their own.
The two dogs, the three pockmarks, the four lai, the six monkeys and others discussed for a while and decided where to go.
Si Lai said: "Even if our group of people return to Yandu, they will only stand here and there on the side of the street. This Zhang Yingying is strong in martial arts, and his body is still electrified, so we might as well follow him, what do you think, brothers?"
Ergouzi took the lead in responding and said: "Yes, let's go back anyway, we will be bullied by Lao Du in Nancheng, it is better to follow Zhang Yingying, so when someone bullies us, this Zhang Hero can still stand up for us." β
After the four of them finished discussing, they came to Zhang Yongjie's side again, and Zhang Yongjie asked, "Have you discussed the results?"
The four lai smiled and said: "Zhang Yingying wants us to do something, this is naturally simple, but we also have one condition." β
Zhang Yongjie frowned and said, "You say." β
Si Lai said: "Let's do something for Zhang Yingying, that hero is naturally our eldest brother, this group of people, how can we live in peace in the future, and rely on the eldest brother to help, we don't want to be street runners anymore, the eldest brother has to find something for us to do." β
The six monkeys took the opportunity to say: "Yes, yes, we are not small, there is nothing." It's best if the eldest brother can tell each of us a daughter-in-law. β
Zhang Yongjie sneered: "Bullshit, look at this situation, are you relying on me? β
San Mazi hurriedly said: "Brother Zhang misunderstood, don't listen to the nonsense of the six monkeys, we just need to find something to do, as for the daughter-in-law, then we have to rely on our own ability." β
The second dog said again: "Yes, it's not a street slicker, if you have something to do, how can you not get a daughter-in-law?"
Zhang Yongjie remembered this group of people, at the beginning they said that it was impossible to do small jobs in this life, and then they asked themselves to find something for them to do.
People have a good heart and should help them. But it's not easy to find something to do for their group of street runners. I think they don't have long skills, what can they do to find them?
Zhang Yongjie thought for a while and said: "As soon as the matter is here, I want to go to Nanjing to join the army to fight the Japanese invaders, if you are willing to join the army, we can go together." β
Several people discussed for a while, and Si Lai said: "Brothers, listen to me, I think it is reliable to join the army to fight the Japanese invaders. β
The six monkeys said: "You can't even win the battle against Nancheng Lao Du, you still go to fight the Japanese Kou? Are you here to be funny?"
Si Lai waved his hand and said: "You know a fart, who said that I can't beat Nancheng Lao Du?" It's just that every time I beat that Nancheng Lao Du, that grandson can always find his cousin Li Zhutou and arrest us in prison, who dares to provoke that Nancheng Lao Du?"
San Mazi said: "That's it, these people don't have the ability to fart, and they have to pretend to be big brothers, and if they lose, they will go to the government, and I don't want to associate with them for a long time." β
Ergouzi also said: "In the past, when we beat someone, the government would arrest us, and if we were caught in prison, it would be a pain of flesh and skin, and we would be imprisoned for several months." β
Ergouzi paused, and then said: "This time is different, we entered the barracks and beat the Japanese invaders, not only will the government not arrest us, but the more Japanese invaders are beaten, the government will reward us." β
The six monkeys asked, "Do you want to reward your daughter-in-law?"
Everyone laughed and laughed at the six monkeys for always thinking about their daughter-in-law. The six monkeys said: "I can't even ask for a daughter-in-law, what's the use of joining the army?"
Si Lai said: "If we fight too many Japanese and become a general in the military camp in the future, are we afraid that we won't be able to get a daughter-in-law?"
Zhang Yongjie heard what they said about becoming a general in the future, and thought to himself, just a group of people who don't know how to learn, and still want to be a general, wouldn't that be the sun coming out of the west?
But after thinking about it, these people finally have 'lofty ambitions', and at this time they should be encouraged a lot, not pour cold water, and when they arrive at the barracks in the future, someone will naturally polish their habits.
Zhang Yongjie said: "Yes, after joining the army, you can be regarded as having a serious thing to do, work hard, and achieve something in the future, which is also expected." β
The four squad leaders went to communicate with the rest of the people, they thought that there was nothing serious to do anyway, and the life of street slickers was too boring, and in the end most of them were willing to go to Nanjing to join the army to fight the Japanese invaders.
Zhang Yongjie took out another 500 taels and handed them over to Si Lai, and promoted him to quartermaster and put him in charge of logistics and supply. It is said that you must first familiarize yourself with familiar skills, so that after joining the army, you will have a future.
The four scoundrels were promoted from squad leader to quartermaster, in charge of the overall logistics supply, and immediately the new officer took up three fires, and scraped all the silver and silver on everyone's body, gathered together, and said that it was to be arranged as a whole.
This harvest actually brought together more than 500 taels, plus Zhang Yongjie's silver taels, the quartermaster department already has more than 1,000 taels of silver.
The four lai gangsters immediately ordered the people to go everywhere to buy grain and cloth, and whoever bought more would get a prize, and whoever bought less would also have a prize.
Zhang Yongjie was dazed when he heard this, and asked, "Why is there less to buy, and there are also prizes?"
Si Lai smiled and said: "If you buy less, or get nothing, then it will be a prize for 'bamboo shoots and shredded meat'." β
Zhang Yongjie didn't understand what this 'bamboo shoots and shredded meat' meant, and the six monkeys smiled: "That's bamboo spanking, these four guys are really not things, and they don't arrange tasks for themselves." β
Zhang Yongjie felt quite funny, and said to Si Lai: "We are going to set up camp here, you have to know how much you need, don't hoard too much." β
Silai patted his chest and said, "Big brother, look at it, I know what I do." β
After saying that, Si Lai Gang instructed another group of people to cut down trees around and set up a tent frame first.
In the evening, those who went out bought cloth and grain, and even some careful people bought a few large iron pots and some bowls and chopsticks.
After the tent was set up, some torches were raised around it. When Zhang Yongjie saw this meeting, he thought to himself that these four gangsters are not useless people, and he can be regarded as the logistics chief of more than 100 people.
There was also some leftover cloth. The four lai gang made a few flags, Zhang Yongjie went over to take a look, only to see that the four lai gang was holding a handful of hay, sticking a bucket of sewage, and writing a big 'Zhang' character on the white flag.
Si Lai said with a smile: "Our current group of people can be regarded as organized people, and we must make a big banner so that outsiders can see it." β
After Si Lai finished speaking, he found a small flag with the word 'Li' written on it. Only then did Zhang Yongjie know that this person's original surname was Li, and his name was Li Lai.
Ergouzi, Sanmazi and Six Monkeys also came to their side at this time, and the six monkeys said, "Write me a flag too." β
Si Lai waved his hand and said, "You squad leader, what flag do you need? Isn't it a joke to spread it?"
The six monkeys said, "Why can't I have a flag?"
After speaking, the six monkeys said to Zhang Yongjie again: "Big brother, our team of hundreds of people also needs someone to be responsible for information exploration, I think this matter of collecting information can be handed over to me." β
Speaking of information, Zhang Yongjie has a deep understanding that in the past, he was scurrying like a headless fly, because the information collection was not in place.
Zhang Yongjie nodded and said: "Okay, you will be the patrol commander, you have to be serious and responsible, don't get me fake news." β
The six monkeys smiled and said, "Don't worry, that's what I did in the past, to find out the news, that's my forte." β
After speaking, the six monkeys immediately asked the four lai gang to write a flag for him, and the four lai gang had no choice but to write the word 'king' again.
The two dogs, the three Mazi also recommended their skills, the two dogs are good at attacking, promoted to the vanguard officer, and the three Mazi are good at breaking off and becoming the rear guard.
The four lai gangsters wrote the words 'Yang' and 'Zhao' for the two of them.
Zhang Yongjie asked them for their real names, but none of them had a large size, and everyone else called them that way from childhood to adulthood.
Zhang Yongjie felt that the names Yang Gouzi, Zhao Mazi, Li Laiyi, and Wang Hou'er were not very elegant.
Zhang Yongjie said: "If you want to go to Nanjing to join the army, these names are not good, you have to choose a big name for yourself." If not, he will commend the generals on the day, and look at General Yang Gouzi and General Zhao Mazi, what kind of system is this?"
But when it comes to choosing names, this group of people basically has no ink, and if they could choose their own names, they would have already named themselves.
Zhang Yongjie pondered for a while, and remembered that the way of naming the Tang Gate was often four-character idioms or colloquialisms. We just pulled up the team today, of course, this team has not yet been certified by the imperial court, and it belongs to the rabble. But also prepare for the future when you join the army.
I just raised the banner and hope to be able to win in the future. Zhang Yongjie immediately proposed to use 'Flag Victory' to name the four people.
Since then, there have been no vulgar names such as Yang Gouzi, Zhao Mazi, Li Lai, and Wang Hou'er. Instead, Yang Qi, Zhao Kai, Li De and Wang Sheng were four.
The four of them have a big name, as if they have a status, and from then on say goodbye to the dirty experience of the past. With great enthusiasm, they welcomed the future and started their new life movement.
Zhang Yongjie looked at their elated appearance, and sighed in his heart, hoping that after they joined the army in the future, they could really do something.
