It is said that the road and bridge in front of it were destroyed, and the soldiers of the inspection department had no choice but to stop the army to inspect, and Cai Jinde had to personally guard the minions and secretly report, and walked out of the sedan chair, looking at the Quartet with a solemn face. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Suddenly, a cold light flashed in the darkness, and a sharp sword flew away, and all the guards and minions all held knives in front of Rigor to block the black-clothed masked man from flying a sword, "Lord Yan, quickly retreat, there are us here, don't panic." ”
The guards surrounded the masked people, only to see the trees in the forest, flying down, dozens of black-clothed and masked people, and the strict guards minions, fighting together.
"There are assassins, there are assassins, hurry up and protect Lord Yan, and there will be no mistakes. Zhou Bing heard the sound of the sword, so he led people to rescue, besieged all the black-clothed people, and fought together in this dark night.
"Withdraw, there are more and more officers and soldiers, if you continue to entangle, you are afraid of heresy. One masked man spoke to another, tall masked man.
"Dog thief, it's your fate, let's go," Da Gao took out a leaf-shaped dart from behind his back and shot it out, dodging rigorously without hurrying, hitting his left arm.
Zhou Bing saw the black-clothed people, grabbed the road and ran away, so he waved his hand and said, "It's dark and the forest is deep, I'm afraid there will be an ambush, the poor Kou Mo chases, go, go over and help the adults up, see if there's any big problem?"
The soldiers went over and lifted up the sedan chair door rigorously, "Bastard thing, do you want me to die, right? I don't know whether I live or die," rigorously got together, came back to his senses, was furious, waved his arm and gave a slap in the face, all the soldiers let go of the strict, rubbed the beaten face with their hands, was weightless for a while, fell to the ground again, and then pulled the wound on the left arm, the painful strict crying father called the mother, and all the soldiers covered their mouths and stole fun.
"Do you dare to laugh at your own officials, believe it or not, and send you all to the northwest border?"
"Lord Yan, don't be bored, let the future take a look for you, your body is important, you don't have to be angry with these subordinates, if you are angry, it will be a misfortune for the imperial court," Zhou Bing helped up Lord Yan.
"Don't be stunned, bring me some rags, cotton, and medicinal wine, this wilderness is a rapid march, and there is no doctor to find, only the last general will do it himself and bandage the wounds of the adults," Zhou Bing turned back to Yan Yan and said.
Zhou Bing took out the dart from his left arm, biting the rag and almost screaming out, the blood kept gushing outward, and the cold sweat on his forehead broke out, Zhou Bing quickly used potion to wash the wound, shook off some powder on the wound, and then bandaged it with a clean rag, and the blood stopped slightly.
"Who are these people? Go find out quickly, tell me, dare to assassinate the court official, the courage is too great, I have to destroy his nine clans, alas, mom, you are light, hurt the official." A cold sweat broke out in pain, and he said to Zhou Bing.
"Okay, Lord Yan Yan, it'll be fine after a few days of rest, I'll send someone to investigate, and I will definitely give an explanation to the adult. Zhou Bing got up and hurried away.
It is said that on this side of the broken bridge, the river is turbulent and flowing, and Zeng lingered on the riverbank, "Pass the order to go down, set up camp, the river is wide and the bridge is broken, and it is late at night, there is no ferry log, and tomorrow the bridge will cross the river, Da'an will rest early, and tomorrow early in the morning, and then take the wooden bridge to cross the river." ”
In the early morning of the next day, the sun slowly rises in the east mountain, the layers of mist are shrouded, the villages in the distance, the smoke is bursting, between the fields, there are already carrying hoes to the ground, or are swinging hoes to farm, and then in the distance is Jijiaoling, the mountain is in the shape of chicken horns, the trees are verdant, the birds in the forest have flown out to forage, the bridge is broken nearby, and the water flows murmuring......
"Broken Bridge"
-- Cold Mountain Lone Pine
The grass on the riverbank is verdant and green,
Flowers, butterflies, dancing river fish fat.
Thousands of flying magpies in the foggy mountains,
Grass hats and smoke peasant clothes.
(The poem in this is the title of the lone pine of Hanshan, do not plagiarize, copy and quote, and the offender will be investigated for legal responsibility.) )
On the edge of the broken bridge, Zeng Ze had already stood here, looking at the other side of the river, he couldn't help but feel relaxed, took a deep breath, and listened to the fresh air, listening to the song of birds and insects in the trees.
"The order went down, the leader of the gang buried the pot to make rice, and the rest of the soldiers cut down trees and built bridges. Zeng Ze waved his hand and said.
The soldiers began to get busy, a meal of hard work, the wood was cut, the simple wooden bridge had been built, all the soldiers had breakfast, put away their tents, ready to assemble at the bridge.
Accompanied by Zeng Ze, Zhou Bing and others, he walked to the front of the wooden bridge, "Yes, good job, build a wooden bridge so quickly, now...... Let's go. ”
After waving their hands rigorously, the soldiers set off along the wooden bridge in full gear, and the troops were mighty, along the farm road, to the foot of the Jijiao Ridge.
Jijiaoling, the mountain is quite high, and the forest is dense, there is only a stone path in the forest, along the steep mountain forest, Zhou Bing took the forward battalion, all the way to the stone path, to the ridge.
At this time, the wood rolled down the ridge and rolled down the forest path, Zhou Bing drew his sword and shouted loudly, "Dodge, dodge, hide in the woods and grass,"
All the soldiers jumped in, and in the thorn cage grass of the trees on both sides, the thorns were covered with blood, and they screamed, Zhou Fu snatched the spear in the hands of the soldiers, and threw the wood that was rolled to the side, "Quickly dodge, come down again, dodge aside." ”
Immediately afterwards, there were more and more rolling logs, and the faster and faster they rolled, after Zhou Bing's gun picked a few circles, he saw this group of chaotic and menacing rolling logs, and blocked them horizontally with the handle of the gun, and the rolling logs behind came one after another, "porphyry" Zhou Bing's blood spurted out of his mouth, and then fell, and the rolling wood smashed and rolled over his body, and in an instant, Zhou Bing was hit by the chaotic wood and died on the spot.
At the foot of the mountain, he shouted in a strict voice, "Rush up, you group of ghosts who are afraid of death, retreat again, and deal with it by military law,"
At this time, Zeng Ze led the team and ran down the mountain, all the soldiers lost their helmets and abandoned their armor and returned, Zeng Ze's helmet was crooked, his face was covered with dust, and his robe was torn by thorns, very embarrassed, "Lord Yan, the path ahead is full of wood, and the soldiers can't climb the steps up the mountain, Lord Zhou Bingzhou...... Martyred. ”
"Ah...... How could this be," Hearing that Zhou Bing had died in Jijiaoling, he was so frightened that he took a few steps back and sat on the ground.
At this time, Lord Yan, cold sweat dripped down his forehead, this is the death of the court official, he can't get out of it, because he supervised the inspection department, he will kill Vice General Zhou Bingzhou in vain, and he thought about it for a long time before he got up from the ground.
Rigor summoned Chen Erdan, a close guard, and said softly, "You go to Jiangsu, find Shen Shiqian, the prefect of Jiangsu, and ask him to ......."
Chen Erdan clenched his fists to lead the order, chose a fast horse and galloped away, and only then did he have a smile on his pale face at this time, "Lord Zeng, who is on the top of this mountain? Are there any other paths that can go to Wangjiabao? Go and find out quickly, camp at the foot of the mountain, and make plans at night." ”
The soldiers began to set up camp, bury the pot to make rice, this mountain road is narrow, and there is a rolling wood to block the way, if you rashly attack the mountain, the consequences are unbearable.
Zeng took a few guards and looked for people everywhere to inquire, but there were few pedestrians in this barren mountain range, and Zeng searched for a long time, but there was no trace of people and animals.
Zeng sat on the stone to rest, a few guards stood aside, idle and short, the mountain wind hit in gusts, and suddenly felt cold.
At this time, there was a burst of singing from the mountain col, everyone looked at it, the person who came was holding a black-haired dog in his hand, holding a steel fork in his hand, hanging a curved bow obliquely behind his back, carrying a quiver behind his right shoulder, the sword barrel was full of white feather arrows, no need to think about it, the person who came must be the hunter in this mountain and wilderness, the so-called relying on the mountain to eat the mountain, no mountain to bear it.
This person has his hair tied in a bun, wrapped in a blue coarse cloth on the top of his head, his face is full of beard, his face is big black and round, his face is pitted, and he has a fierce face.
Zeng Ze got up and stood up, threw away the stone in his hand, and walked towards the hunter, "This brother, can I ask you something?"
"Master Jun, if you have a question, just ask, we mountain people, we don't know how to beat around the bush, what do you ask? I know everything. Orion said bluntly.
"Do you know how many roads there are to get to Wangjiabao?
"This goes to Wangjiabao, there is still a mountain road to go, if you go through Qiansong Ridge, but I am afraid that something is wrong, there are bandits, the officials don't care, the people sigh, everyone calls that "Evil Ghost Ridge", generally take a detour, go to this Jijiao Ridge and go. Orion said.
"Qiansongling, how many bandits, do you know? This Jijiaoling will not work, I am afraid that the only way to turn around is Qiansongling. Zeng Ze asked.
"There are two or three hundred bandits, but if you go to Qiansongling, you have to pass through the front village, the middle village, and the back village. Orion said.
"This ...... Let me go back and think about it, thank you Brother Orion here, let's go ......" Zeng Ze thanked Orion, and led his guards back to the foot of the mountain, and returned to Rigor Strictly.
After watching Zeng Ze lead his guards away, Orion showed a strange smile on his face, and led Hei back to the mountain pass.
"Lord Yan, the name here is called Jijiaoling, the terrain is dangerous, a one-way path up the mountain, easy to defend and difficult to attack, there is a road to Wangjiabao, but to pass through Qiansong Ridge, there are bandits assembled, there will be no special to tell you, please Yan Da decide. Zeng clenched his fists and said rigorously.
After thinking about it for a long time, he said with a sudden smile, "Take the Qiansong Ridge, if you want to stop us and others, you will destroy them, and I will wait for the general to ask the court for merit and reward." ”
"If you don't obey the order, then I'll go and prepare, everything is based on Lord Yan's arrangement. Zeng Ze returned to the camp tent of the Chinese army, threw the marching token to the generals in the hall, and the troops finished the camp and went to Qiansong Ridge.
Zeng Ze rode a black horse, holding a spear in his hand, walked in front of the team, led the army to cross the bridge, climbed the hill, and traveled all the way to the foot of Qiansongling Mountain.
The gate of Qiansongling Qianzhai is closed, and there is no sentry at the door.
"The hero of Qiansongling, I am the general judge of the Yingtan Inspection Division, the surname is Zeng, today's business trip, passing by Guibaodi, please pass by your master, can you take the Qiansongling Road, go to Wangjiabao. Zeng Ze rode a tall horse, brandished an iron gun, and shouted loudly to the inside of the walled gate.
At this time, the gate of the village was wide open, a black horse rushed out of the gate of the wall, and immediately the general was full of black beard, and the face was like carbon black, a spear in the hand, the waist wore a treasure knife, angry eyes, making people frightened.
"Hey, isn't this the hunter in the col under the Jijiao Ridge? how could it be him?" Zeng Ze thought to himself.
"There is a way in heaven that you don't take, and there is no door to hell, you have come to vote, tell you, this is my realm, why do you still gather troops to commit it?" said the third master of the black bearded man Bao Fei.
"Hero, we want to go to Wangjiabao by going to Qiansongling, not to gather a crowd to attack, to clear you, I hope the hero will tell your master, can I wait for the way?" Zeng Ze said with a fist.
"I am this, the owner of Qiansongling, surnamed Bao Mingfei, your name is Bao Sanye, it is not difficult for you to wait, I won the spear in my hand, and let you wait. Bao Sanye waved his spear and pointed at Zeng Zeyan.
"Which general is willing to go into battle against the enemy?" Zeng Ze turned to the general behind him and asked.
All the generals bowed their heads and were silent, and at this time, a general rushed out from the crowd, "Lord Zeng, let me meet the bandits of Qiansongling,"
This general is the inspection department, Zhou Bing's subordinates, Wanan's name Wenyuan, this person has been in the military since he was 14 years old, he has been in the guard, the official worships hundreds of households, and then transferred to the inspection department, and works together under Zhou Bing.
This person is a little white, with a small beard, small eyes, single eyelids, and some eyes looking at each other, which is what we often call eye (teasing corns).
Nan Wenyuan waved the spear in his hand, pressed the horse's belly between his legs, and flew over on horseback.
"Come and get the name together, Bao Sanye's subordinates will not kill, and the nameless rats," Bao Sanye asked with a spear before he took the reins.
"I am the advance officer under the account of the Patrol Inspection Division, surnamed Nan Wenyuan, against the master of this Qiansongling Village, let me meet you. Nan Wenyuan lightly pinched the horse's belly, and stabbed with a spear in his right.
"Sample, one-handed against Yu me, I want to see you, how much ability do you have?" Bao Fei thought to himself in his heart, and also swung his spear and stabbed Nan Wenyuan.
The two men galloped and fought together, spears and spears against each other, spears and spears, and only the sound of horses' hooves was heard, which brought up the dust.
Bao Sanye deserves to be "Saiyide", the wind of a spear dance whirring, forcing Nan Wenyuan to hurriedly hold the gun with both hands, because this just after the battle, he almost shook the spear in his hand away, so he didn't dare to underestimate the enemy anymore, and went all out to fight with Bao Sanye.
In less than ten rounds, Bao Sanye picked Nanwen Yuan under the horse, and the minions of the mountains stepped forward with knives, tied Nan Wenyuan on the ground, and escorted him back to the cottage.
"Bao Fei and Bao Sanye are here, who else is not convinced? Just come forward and give it a try," Bao Fei shouted sharply with a spear in his hand.
"I'm going to meet him, Duan Xing, the young general of the inspection department, came to ask for advice, look at the gun. Duan Xing rushed out of the team and rushed away.
"Hehe, another one, I will tie you all back to the cottage one by one, and let you stay in my cottage and be a prisoner of the steps. Bao Fei looked up at the sky with a smile and said happily.
Duan Xing waved his spear and rushed Bao Fei away, Bao Sanye Lema stood in front, waved his spear with both hands to block it, only to see Duan Xing holding the gun in one hand, his head bowed slightly, and he took out the Feiyan Dart from his arms, and when the weapons clashed, he waved the Feiyan Dart and ran to Bao Fei Bao Sanye......
