Chapter 12: Johnson & Johnson shoots the dervish

The poem says:

Military discipline and orders should be strict, how can they be arrogant and greedy.

Killing people on the battlefield is like mowing grass, and generals are dancing knives like whirlwinds.

The winning horse loses its front hooves, and Johnson & Johnson shoots the dervish with arrows.

I don't know the hardships of the battlefield, and I am a scholar on paper.

Not to mention Li Shijian's quiet seizure of Ping'an Prefecture, as well as the arrangements for reorganization, recruitment and defense, let's talk about Chen Zhiyuan later.

After winning Ji Jiugong that day, I thought about it and felt unfair in my heart, and there was a big sword Chang Sheng, who strongly advocated attacking Lu Jiugong's Anshun Prefecture and taking revenge on Lu Jiugong. So Chen Zhiyuan decided to attack Anshun Prefecture.

After all, Chen Zhiyuan only had 50,000 horses, so he only left 2,500 people to defend the city and handed it over to Ji Xiaohu to command.

In Chen Zhiyuan's view, the imperial court was standing still, and it was very far away from Ping'an Prefecture; for a while, there could be no battle on the side of Ping'an Prefecture, and it was enough to have a group of men and horses to defend the city.

So, the arrangement was completed, Chen Zhiyuan led the victorious troops, marched to attack Lu Jiugong, and came to the bottom of Baiyun Ridge, just when Lu Jiugong and his subordinates retreated to this place, they no longer retreated, so the two sides confronted each other.

Chen Zhiyuan sent a big sword to win the challenge many times, and Lu Jiugong knew that none of his generals were the opponents of the big sword, so he naturally insisted on not fighting, and only hoped that the dervishes would come early.

Chen Zhiyuan thought darkly, Lu Jiugong's subordinates, that Chang Sichen, is a very strategic guy, could it be that they can't hold out, and there is another conspiracy? What kind of conspiracy should I use to break the enemy?

Here, Chen Zhiyuan thought hard about how to break the enemy.

However, it was said that after Lu Jiugong came back from the Great Time Temple in Chengbei, Anshun Prefecture, it was the second day, that is, the third day of the challenge that the big sword often won the challenge, and the dervishes father and son came to Lu Jiugong's camp.

Lu Jiugong and Chang Sichen got the report and hurried out of the camp to greet them. After meeting, after greeting each other, Lu Jiugong and Chang Sichen expressed their gratitude, and asked Liu Xiaobang'er for his name.

The dervish took over and said, "Before the old man became a monk, he gave birth to this son. Recently, I was a little unhappy in my hometown, and I missed the old man, so I came to see him, so the old man brought him over. ”

After everyone finished saluting, they entered the camp, set up a banquet, and after they were seated, they listened to the sound of cannons outside the camp before they made three rounds of wine. A small soldier came to report, saying that the big sword often wins and comes to challenge again.

The dervishes said: "Don't worry, let him shout outside for a while, the old man has eaten wine, and he will kill him!"

So Lu Jiugong and Chang Sichen both toasted to the dervishes. Then, all the generals also came up to toast, and at the same time, they also took the big sword Chang Sheng and scolded a few words.

Among the generals, there is also a female general in a big red cloak, who is only eighteen or nineteen years old. When toasting, the female general said: "The master is so good that the little girl admires! The little girl does it first as a respect, and the master must not drink!"

The dervishes laughed, but there was a toast, and the wine was dry, but he did not say anything to the toasters.

Here, Lu Jiugong took advantage of the opportunity and secretly said to Chang Sichen: "Sir, is there any way to keep this dervish monk?"

Chang Sichen said: "There wasn't before, but now it seems to be." ”

Lu Jiu said fairly: "How do you say this?"

Chang Sichen said: "I just saw the dervishes speaking in a tone that I love this son Liu Xiaobanger very much. And Liu Xiaobang'er, in my opinion, must be a big disappointment in his hometown!"

Lu Jiu said fairly: "I understand, what Mr. means, that is, we can start with Liu Xiaobang'er and keep Liu Xiaobang'er, even if it is to keep the dervishes, right?"

Chang Sichen said: "The king of heaven is wise, and this is what the villain means." ”

So Lu Jiugong called his subordinates and secretly ordered: "Go find the quartermaster and prepare five hundred taels of silver for this heavenly king!"

Chang Sichen said: "Heavenly King, according to the villain's opinion, I'm afraid that this Liu Xiaobang'er is not married yet......;

Lu Jiu said fairly: "Sir, to be honest, this Liu Xiaobang is thin and lean, and he looks like a beggar, I'm just afraid that my niece won't be happy." ”

Chang Sichen said: "Heavenly King, 'people want to be dressed and Buddha wants to be golden', I look at this little stick, after entering our camp, after changing clothes, the eyebrows and eyes are quite delicate." Another way is 'the tiger father has no dog son', he is such a hero, how can the son be useless?"

Lu Jiu said fairly: "Reasonable! Please ask Mr. to protect the media for the two families between the banquets." ”

Chang Sichen said: "The villain is the matchmaker for the two families!"

So Chang Sichen raised his wine and toasted the dervishes and said: "Master Mingchen, Ling Lang is just right, I don't know if he has a family?"

When the dervish monk heard this, he smiled and said, "The old man is a poor family, and my son hasn't asked for a daughter-in-law yet." Why, the donor wants to tell my son about a family affair?"

Chang Sichen smiled: "Exactly!"

The dervish said, "I don't know who the woman is?"

Chang Sichen said: "Lu Tianwang has a niece daughter, two years ago, her parents were killed by the dog official, and the mourning lasted for three years, but the time has not yet arrived, so she has never married, and in terms of age, she is equivalent to Ling Lang." I don't know what Master Mingchen thinks?"

When the dervish monk heard that it was the niece of Lu Jiugong's family, he was not very happy. Lu Jiugong was also sitting at the table, how could he not see it? At that time, he also said to the dervishes:

"Master Mingchen, my niece is also above the middle-aged level, and she will not insult Ling Lang!"

At that time, he said: "King Lu, the old man knows that the permanent donor will not be false, and he also knows that what you say will be true, and the old man is not very happy, not because of his niece, but because of you, the king of heaven!"

When Lu Jiugong heard this, he was puzzled, and although he was unhappy in his heart, he also held back his anger and asked, "Master, I don't know why this king has hindered this beautiful thing?"

The dervishes said, "Since you ask the old man, the old man will tell you the truth." ”

Lu Jiu said fairly: "Master, please speak!"

So the dervish said:

Your Shunyi Army, there are currently four major forces, and a new Chen Zhiyuan has emerged. Recently, you have been killing each other, and you really don't know the reason for the cold of your lips and teeth.

Don't look at the court now that the army is standing still, and think that the court will allow you to sit big. Du Huaibiao, the prince of the Eastern Court, commanded an army of 200,000 and guarded the Qingliu Pass, and could march eastward at any time! The soldiers of the East Court and the West Court had a total of 800,000 soldiers and horses, all of whom were the elite of the Datong Khanate!

The Shunyi army in the eight eastern states is only four or five hundred thousand in total, and they are essentially homeless, poorly equipped, poorly trained, not strictly disciplined, and unclear orders!

It is conceivable that the Shunyi army could resist the army of 800,000 tigers and wolves? What's more, the army of the Datong Khanate was more than these 800,000 horses!

If the Emperor Khan reacted and dispatched a large army to encircle and suppress, I was afraid that even Zhu Wu, the king of Shunyi, would not be able to escape the end of annihilation.

Lu Tianwang think, my son climbed up to your Lu Tianwang, a relative, at that time, although the world is big, where can it be tolerated?

When Lu Jiugong heard this, he was like a blow to the head, his face turned red and white, and he wanted to get angry, but he couldn't get angry.

Chang Sichen kicked Lu Jiugong's foot under the table, suggesting that he should not be angry, and said with a smile:

"What Master Mingchen said is extremely pertinent, I don't know how the Shunyi Army can fight against the elite soldiers of the imperial court according to the master's opinion?"

The dervishes said: "Lao Qu for more than ten years, footprints all over the Datong Khanate, the current Khan Emperor is mediocre, the three pillars of the prince support the army self-respect, the tail is not lost, the court officials and the three pillars collude with each other, fight for power, up and down, corruption has become a trend, so that people's minds change!"

Speaking of which, at this time, it is the time for heroes to use force, but those who do not have foresight and wisdom cannot achieve great success; those who cannot seek the world are not enough to seek this corner of the eastern eight states!

If not, don't call yourself the king, if you take refuge in the Ming Lord and the Emperor on another day, you can also get glory and wealth, if you call the king of heaven in vain, you want to be glorious for a while, but you are afraid that when the disaster comes, it will not be able to save it!"

Hearing these words, everyone in the audience was shocked: since the rebellion, who has ever thought so?

Today, if it weren't for the outspoken words of this Master Mingchen, I am afraid that the army will inevitably be defeated in the future, and I will be on the table! It seems that the old saying is right, people have no foresight, there must be near-term worries, I wait for the battlefield to earn my life, I only know that happiness is a moment, and a day is a day, this is not good.

Lu Jiugong had already extinguished his anger, and said respectfully: "The words of the master Jin Yu made Xiao Wang Mao suddenly open! Xiao Wang is willing to respect the master as a military advisor, but if the military master has a word, he should obey his words, and ask the master to be merciful and have mercy on the lives of 100,000 of his subordinates!"

The dervish had not yet answered this, but Chang Sichen stood up, bowed deeply to the dervish and said:

The villain listened to the master's words and had an idea, so please ask the master for some advice, I don't know what the master thinks?"

The dervishes said: "The donor has always been a knowledgeable person, and he can't talk about it, so please tell me what kind of high opinion it is, and let the old man learn a thing or two." ”

Lu Jiugong heard this, and also said, "Mr. Chang, just say it." ”

Chang Sichen said: "Heavenly King, Master Mingchen, it is better for us to make peace with Chen Zhiyuan now, our army will cross Ping'an Prefecture to the south, attack Jizhou, Yangzhou, Nanjian Prefecture and Beijian Prefecture in the south of Datong Khanate, take the land of the four states as the foundation, and conquer the southern eight states in one go, and then watch the battle between the imperial court and the eastern eight states, at that time, advance, our army can enter Zhongzhou to approach the imperial capital, retreat, and divide the four states to protect one side, how?"

The dervishes said: "The four prefectures of Naji, Yangzhou and Nanbei Jianzhou are under the jurisdiction of Nanting Zhugong in the military system of the Khanate, and Nanting Zhugong Xiang Huaizhong is dead, and the Khan Emperor has not announced a new Zhugong.

And the geographical situation of the four states is easy to defend and difficult to attack, as long as you can fight it, it is not impossible to be the king. The old man has a suggestion, if you want to conquer the land of the four states, first, you must not disturb the people, and second, you should be a soldier so fast that he will not have time to react. ”

When Lu Jiugong heard the words of the two of them, he was like an initiation, and he made up his mind at that time. Lu Jiugong said:

The master instructed Xiao Wang, and Xiao Wang thanked the master for this! Xiao Wang agreed with Mr. Chang's opinion. It's just that if he wants to make peace with Chen Zhiyuan and don't hurt him, he will not be willing to make peace. After all, the two sides are fighting each other, and the cause is me! I also asked the master to help Xiao Wang cut him and win with a big sword!"

The dervishes said, "Well said! Please prepare a horse for the old man!"

Immediately, the colonel in front of the tent took the armor and led the war horse over. The dervish monk does not use armor, and goes directly to the camp!

However, it was said that outside Lu Jiugong's camp, Chen Zhiyuan and Shi Qiangsheng were both under the flag gate, and they saw that the big knife often won the challenge, and no one on the other side dared to come out, so they were relieved.

Seeing that it was close to noon, Chen Zhiyuan was about to give the order to temporarily withdraw his troops, but unexpectedly, the war drums in the opponent's camp suddenly sounded!

When Chen Zhiyuan and Shi Qiangsheng looked at it, they saw that in the camp opposite, at the opening of the camp gate, there was a monk who came out with a dervishes and a horse first, followed by Lu Jiugong and led the troops to rush out surrounded by the generals!

Seeing that Lu Jiugong's men were lined up in formation, the monk took the alderival and rode the horse, and came to meet the big sword and win. Chen Zhiyuan was shocked: "Mingjin withdraws his troops!"

Shi Qiangsheng was puzzled: "Heavenly King, the other party is just a monk out of the horse, why do you want to withdraw the troops when you see him?"

Chen Zhiyuan said: "I hate that Lu Jiugong, he won't come out for a few days, but it turned out that he invited this dervishes monk to come, obviously to murder my big sword Changsheng general!"

When Shi Qiangsheng heard this, it turned out that Chen Zhiyuan was afraid of this dervish monk and was afraid that he would kill Chang Sheng! Is this dervish monk very powerful? Anyway, I will teach him to eat my arrow, so that I can show my means!

However, Chen Tianwang attaches so much importance to this monk, presumably he has something extraordinary, but he is afraid that it will be difficult to shoot an arrow to death, right?

So Shi Qiangsheng stretched out his bow and set up arrows, looking at the dervishes, and "swishing" was a series of nine arrows!

Shi Qiangsheng shot arrows in a row, and Chen Zhiyuan's Chinese army gong sounded.

Chang Sheng heard the sound of the gong and wanted to return to his own army. However, it is also said that he is a ghost who is upside down, and he should be upside down or damned, right?

In the sound of gold, the dervishes were also stunned: What's the matter? The old man has just come out of the battle, and you are about to retreat?

The dervish monk secretly applauded in his heart: I didn't expect Chen Zhiyuan's subordinates to have such a good shooter!

The dervish immediately swung his sword and blocked the arrow. However, Shi Qiangsheng's archery skills are indeed superb, and the dervish monk can't block all the arrows with a single sword, especially the last arrow, which is actually the last to come first, and the dervish naturally raises his left arm to block the arrow in an emergency.

It turned out that he was still holding a bowl in his hand! This bowl was his signature, and he also held it in his hand when he went to battle.

If he was empty-handed, the dervish monk would be able to grab the arrow in one go, but with a bowl in his hand, the dervish monk blocked it like this, and suddenly thought:

If I receive this arrow, I am afraid that it will be broken. So, a good dervishes, for the sake of the bowl, actually used his left arm to block the arrow, then it was inevitable that he would be hit by the arrow and bleed!

Although the dervish was hit by the arrow, he acted as if nothing had happened, and brought his left arm to his mouth, bit the arrow, and pulled it out. Hey, after a drag, it's amazing!

The blood on the forearm flowed down the arm to the bowl, and a strange thing happened: the dervish monk felt as if his blood had been drained, and his eyes were dark, and he fell off the horse!

In fact, friends who have read the clumsy work "Two Worlds for Immortals" know that this is a ritual that the dervish monk inadvertently completes.

It's just that the dervish monk is just a mortal at this time, and the bowl is a second-order Taoist weapon, in comparison, although the grade of the bowl is low, the cultivation of the dervish monk is even lower!

Fortunately, the grade of this bowl is not too high, otherwise, it would have killed the dervish monk now!

Moreover, this drop of blood recognized the Lord, and at that time the dervishes fell down like a dried corpse with their blood drained.

Chang Sheng was about to fight the horse and returned, listened to the movement, and when he saw the dervishes fall off the horse, he was going to pick up a ready-made cheap!

When he rushed to the dervishes and wanted to slash with his sword, he saw that the dervishes had woken up, stared at himself, and smiled slightly!

It turned out that although the dervish monk seemed to have been drained of his essence and blood for a while, in just a few breaths, he felt that he had endless energy, injected into his body, and was alive and vigorous again, and even the wound on his arm had healed! If it weren't for the blood stains on his sleeves, who could have trusted the dervish monk to have just suffered an arrow wound?

Not only that, but the dervishes felt that his bowl was as if he knew his own mind!

It's just that at this time, the dervish didn't think much about it, and he didn't expect that after listening to Mingjin's order, Chang Sheng actually didn't listen to the order and turned back to kill himself!

The dervish smiled slightly, and the big sword Changsheng was so shocked that his soul flew away!

The dervishes did not wait for the Changsheng broadsword to slash his body, only twisted his body, dodged the Changsheng broadsword, raised his hand to block, and knocked on the Changsheng broadsword with a single knife, only to hear the sound of "choking", and the Changsheng broadsword involuntarily rebounded upward.

The dervish monk spun close to the ground, then made a spin, a single knife in his hand, and at the same time slashed at the winning war horse, and cut off the horse's two front hooves on the spot. This is a real "horse stumbling hoof"!

So the sword always wins, and the horse falls, and the man falls!

The dervish monk had already stood up, and he only stepped forward to step forward, and he trampled on this constant victory without moving!

When Lu Jiugong Chang Sichen and the others saw that the dervishes had captured Chang Sheng alive, they gave an order, and all the troops rushed forward together!
