The night was getting thicker, the night wind was mixed with a slightly damp smell, the hooked waning moon was gradually obscured by dark clouds, and a heavy summer rain seemed to be brewing, or it would fall in an hour. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

"Grit your teeth and step up. Li Chengliang urged. I also knew in my heart that these disciples had just experienced a big battle, and they had been on the road since noon, but they were even more worried that Bai Mosheng's dozens of light horsemen who had come out in front of him would be entangled once they encountered the main force of the Japanese Invaders, and if there was another summer night rainstorm and the roads were muddy, they would inevitably be more auspicious.

The situation seemed to be even more chaotic than Li Chengliang and his team had originally expected, and their group had just traveled about ten miles north, and they could begin to see the sparse weapons and armor abandoned on both sides of the road, Li Chengliang beckoned a local beggar disciple to come over and ask him to identify the origin of these weapons and armor, and the reply was that this was the standard equipment of the nearby guard army.

"Extinguish the torches, the beggars help the disciples scatter into the forests on both sides, and the disciples of the Moge Pavilion form a formation of imperial swords, ready to meet the enemy. Li Chengliang gave an order, stepped down, and ran forward along the side of the road.

The moonlight is completely unrevealed, and it is difficult to see a ray of light on the earth.

But God doesn't seem to want Li Chengliang to walk in the dark for too long, but in a quarter of an hour, you can see the bright light in front of you, hear the sound of shouting and killing in front of you, and then go forward for a few miles, around a dirt slope, Li Chengliang watched with the angular probe of the hillside, and was surprised to see that the Daming Guard Army, which has always been criticized by the coastal people, is fighting bloody battles with the Japanese invaders, and the people on both sides are huge, holding torches, and the raging fire will reflect the battlefield as bright as day, which should be where the main force of the Japanese invaders is.

Li Chengliang secretly said in his heart that it was not good, Bai Mosheng led the light horse and the foot strength was fast, and he would inevitably miss the battlefield here, which meant that Song Chi and the others would also miss the battlefield here. Taking a closer look at the situation on the battlefield, there are about 1,000 guards and more than 1,000 of them, forming a defensive battle formation and trying to advance in a dense formation, while the Japanese should have hundreds of people, scattered into groups, and break through and attack at the points of the guard's army line. The Ming army's sword and shield soldiers in the rear formation rushed out to divide and surround these scattered Japanese invaders, and the Japanese were in danger, shouting endlessly, waving their blades, slashing and slashing, and the Ming army was difficult to fall into its front.

Li Chengliang thought for a moment, turned over and retreated, returned to the disciples, summoned everyone to one place, and briefly described the situation ahead, everyone looked at each other, and felt a little helpless.

Wan Qisong spoke: "Senior Brother Li, what should I do next? Moreover, those guards may be able to support one or two now, but from what I have seen before, according to Senior Brother Li's tactics, the guards will not last an hour or even less, and the army will collapse. The bravery of the Japanese is truly terrifying......"

Li Chengliang raised his hand to stop Wan Qisong's words, and said: "I will definitely not let you be sent to death, now we are like this, the two local beggar gang disciples have all your strength to find a large army to the north and northwest, and the rest of the disciples will go with me to join the general of the Weisuo army and listen to his dispatch." ”

Wan Qisong asked and immediately said: "Senior brother, I know that you know a lot about the army in northern Xinjiang, but this is not the north, and the generals are not the best choice in a hundred miles, most of them are mediocre materials, and they cannot be trusted." ”

Li Chengliang glanced at Wan Qisong in astonishment, and nodded: "It's the senior brother who is less worried." In this way, we will go to the northeast side, scatter and harass the rear of the Japanese Invaders, do not entangle, and retreat as soon as we are discovered, and the meeting place is here. ”

"Order!" the crowd took the order.

Li Chengliang led his disciples to the northeast and walked for several miles, it seemed that the shouting and killing were a little silent, Li Chengliang couldn't help but be a little suspicious, so he asked everyone to stop and sent a disciple to the vicinity of the battlefield to inquire about the situation.

However, after a while, the disciple returned to report, and the result surprised Li Chengliang, and the Weisuo army, which was still fighting with the Japanese Kou, had already retreated at this time and fled in all directions to the west.

Wan Qisong glanced at Li Chengliang with an unsurprising expression.

Li Chengliang was silent, thought for a moment, and said in a deep voice: "We will follow the Japanese Kou, and if there is a division, we will destroy it." ”

Wan Qisong nodded solemnly, there was no better way at this moment.

"We haven't arrived in Rugao County yet, and here is Renqiao Town fifteen miles to the northwest, and the situation is worrying!" said the beggar disciple who was familiar with the nearby geography.

Li Chengliang could only shake his head helplessly when he heard this: "I am now short of manpower, and the only way to attack rashly is to hit the stone with an egg, keep tracking the Japanese Kou, and try to contact the White Pavilion Envoy and Elder Song is the best policy." The march of the Japanese is not slow, and it is difficult for us to surpass, and now I only hope that the retreating Ming army can inform the people in the town in advance to leave quickly. ”

Leaving two disciples to pick up Bai Mosheng or Song Chi's subordinates who could come in hand, Li Chengliang took the remaining disciples and continued to follow the Japanese Kou inland.

Sure enough, as the beggar disciple said, the Japanese invaded the northwest for more than half an hour, and a small town with a southern style was in sight.

Immediately after the Japanese invaders, Li Chengliang led the crowd to chase them, but after a long time of running and fighting the enemy, everyone was already exhausted, that is, Wan Qisong and Li Chengliang were gasping for breath, and their physical strength was a little weak.

Li Chengliang gritted his teeth and said to everyone: "We can't sit back and watch the Japanese invaders make chaos, we will scatter into the town, or try our best to find a lone Japanese to kill in a group of three, once we encounter many people, we must not be entangled and stay, the Japanese invaders bully the people of the Ming Dynasty, and the martial arts in our hands are the Great Wall on the southeast coast!"

Mo Ge and the disciples of the beggar gang here are mostly southeasterners, since they were young, they have not shared the sky with the Japanese Kou, and have a deep blood feud, even if they are exhausted at this time, there is still a spiritual support to meet the enemy, listen to Li Chengliang's orders, all of them receive orders, and they disperse.

Li Chengliang took Wan Qisong and another Moge disciple to grope along the road into the town, there is a stream in front of the town, a stone bridge on it, and a memorial arch stands behind the stone bridge, with the three words "Renqiao Town" on it. Under the torii, several Japanese robbers are laboriously tearing off the metal sheets embedded in the torii pillars.

"Baga!" a widow who had easily pried off a word put it in his mouth and bit it, and found that it was only a piece of copper and not gold, and scolded angrily.

Suddenly, a rocket flew into the dark night sky from nowhere in the town, and with a loud bang, a huge fireworks exploded in the air, and in an instant the dark town seemed to be daylight again.

Li Chengliang, who was still groping in the grass in front of the town, caught a glimpse of a trace and shouted in a low voice: "Stop!"

Before the words fell, the town that was still sleeping in the dark and let the pirates ravage it seemed to come to life, and in an instant, the earth-shattering shouts filled the surroundings.

The Ming army of the brigade rushed out of the courtyard of the deep house in the town, and fought with the Japanese who were scattered and plundered the treasures, and rushed out of the cellar where the wine was kept, a large number of young and strong men, armed with the weapons of the militia, divided into several teams in seven or eight to besiege and kill the Japanese in less battle.

Li Chengliang secretly exclaimed, "Beautiful!", the hand of the commander of the Ming army successfully attracted the Japanese to disperse in the towns, each had to take care of their own plunder, and the blade left their bodies.

Li Chengliang and the others sprinted quickly, using all their strength to make light moves, and raised their swords to kill the few widows at the bridgehead, and they were immediately inseparable.

Li Chengliang held the sword flower in his hand, and a false stab led the horizontal knife in front of him to block, how did Li Chengliang's sword momentum suddenly change, and he drew an arc downward, opening a gap in the abdomen and chest of this widow, Li Chengliang took advantage of the victory to pursue, and directly gave the Japanese a bloody mouth in his throat, and the result.

After a few people finished taking care of these Japanese robbers, they were about to rush into the town with their swords to join the war group, and suddenly found that the scattered Japanese robbers in the town had fought and retreated, and gathered about 200 people who were killing out of the town.

"Go down to the river!" Li Chengliang immediately made a decision, pulling Wan Qisong and the Moge disciples beside him to turn over and jump into the stream, hiding under the bridge and hole, and temporarily avoiding this large group of widows.

In the sky, the dark clouds finally couldn't carry the so much rain, and lightning slashed the entire sky, and the rumbling thunder drowned out the sound of fighting in the town, resounding in the sky.

"Bang la-la" pouring rain fell in an instant~
