Chapter Twenty-Seven: Opening the Warehouse to Help Grain

Since entering Xiagang Town, Xie Tong has been observing the surroundings, trying to find the ambush location of the brothers, seeing this messy stone hill, he smiled heartily, and said in his heart that Lai Kezhong really knows how to pick a place, this is the best ambush location.

The troops slowly entered the stone hill, and there was no movement, Xie Tong said in his heart, could something go wrong.

Suddenly, dense bamboo arrows were shot from both sides of the stone hill, and someone was shot off the horse when he boarded, and the wails came and went.

Rao is Chen Daoting has been on the battlefield for a long time, and he is still surprised, after all, this is the territory of the righteous army, and the Tang army is still hundreds of miles away from accidents, he didn't expect that someone would ambush them, he immediately shouted, "The whole army retreats."

Xie Tong and Huo Zixin glanced at each other, and the two of them had already had a good heart!

Xie Tong suddenly slapped out his palm, directly hitting Chen Daoting's chest.

Chen Daoting also reacted very quickly, hurriedly raised his true qi, and slapped Xie Tong stiffly.

Xie Tong didn't move at all, but Chen Daoting's shoulders shook so much that he was almost slapped off by Xie Tong's palm. There was murderous intent in his eyes, and he didn't expect Huo Zixin and the others to sneak attack him.

Huo Zixin even used his housekeeping skills, Tianshan Xuanying pointed at him, he took advantage of Chen Daoting and Xie Tong's palm, and pointed at Chen Daoting's lower abdomen.

After Chen Daoting palmed his palm, his qi and blood surged, and before he could react, when he saw Huo Zixin using that terrifying fingering, his heart was not good, and he quickly turned sideways, but after all, he was a step too late, and Tianshan Xuanying Finger hit him hard in the ribs, directly knocking him upside down and flying out.

Chen Daoting fell to the ground fiercely, spitting out a mouthful of blood.

The sound of shouting and killing came from both sides of the stone hill, and Lai Kezhong threw out a big bow and shot fiercely, his bamboo arrows seemed to have eyes, each arrow. One of the enemies must fall, and more than a dozen people will be killed by his arrows in an instant. The enemy was suddenly in chaos and retreated out in no order.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Chen Daoting hurriedly stood up and ran out after the troops.

Xie Tongna allowed him a chance to escape, and hurriedly used his own unique skills. He poured his true qi into his fingers and pointed it at the back of Chen Daoting's heart.

Chen Daoting heard the sound of breaking wind behind him, his heart screamed badly, and his body suddenly turned right, but Xie Tong's true qi had already reached behind him and hit him directly on his right back, he was directly knocked to the ground by this strong true qi, and spit out a mouthful of blood again, this blow had already injured him with extremely serious internal injuries. Can't slip out anymore.

Xie Tong and the others slowly surrounded them, the battle continued, Xie Tong said to Lai Kezhong, "Brother Lai, this ambush is very important, and we must not let the enemy run away!"

Lai Kezhong smiled and said, "Brother Xian, don't worry, Yuan Jing has already led his brother to block the retreat, and he can't fly out of Baobao! With an iron gun in hand, he strode out.

Chen Daoting turned over and sat on the ground. He was fingered twice in succession, it was already the end of the crossbow, and he didn't have the strength to forcibly resist, he coughed up two mouthfuls of blood, but instead calmed down, and said, "Who are you? Why are you calculating me!"

Huo Zixin said: "Lao Tzu is the descendant of the Tianshan Sword Sect. Didn't you already know that?"

Chen Daoting said, "It turns out that the famous Tianshan Sword Sect will also do despicable and obscene things, aren't you afraid to make people laugh when you spread it?"

Xie Tong walked up to him and said, "In the face of the enemy, there is nothing despicable and indecent, there is just how to take revenge!"

Chen Daoting said: "Contemptible people don't know you. How can I take revenge!"

Xie Tong snorted coldly, "Your Excellency, you have forgotten who you designed to capture in Yichang, who you used to test your Xuan Bing True Qi, and who you threw into the river! ”

Chen Daoting's eyes shot out a look of disbelief, and he said tremblingly, "You, you are Xie Yang, aren't you dead?"

Xie Tong stared at him fiercely, and said, "Xie Yang's is indeed dead, Lao Tzu is the newborn Xie Tong!"

Chen Daoting's face had turned dead gray, since the other party had told him so many secrets, he had obviously made up his mind to kill him, and he would not be allowed to leave here alive, he turned his heart sideways and silently recited, "The master will avenge me!"

Huo Zixin cut off his head with a sword.

Xie Tong looked up to the sky and sighed, and muttered, "Sword Master, I slashed your first enemy, and the next one is Datuk Venerable Meng Kai!"

The whole ambush went very smoothly, all 500 enemies were killed, Lai Kezhong really did not boast, after the ambush was over, everyone rested in the rocky hill and counted the casualties.

The battle was a great victory, and only forty-six brothers were killed, but many were wounded, and many brothers were hung up.

Xie Tong took out the talisman from Chen Daoting's arms, and said in a loud voice, "Brothers, follow me into Jiangyin City!"

Xie Tong led the crowd to Jiangyin City and was stopped by the soldiers at the city gate.

Xie Tong took out the talisman and said, "Lord Chen was ordered to go to health, and I am responsible for all the affairs of Jiangyin City, and those who violate the order will not be pardoned immediately." ”

The soldiers all recognized this talisman, where did they dare to stop him, and all the soldiers also followed Xie Tong into the city.

Xie Tong even imprisoned all the commanders, big and small, and simply appointed new officers. The entire Jiangyin City was immediately controlled by him.

Everyone thought that Chen Daoting had been transferred to the front line, and this person was the newly sent city guard of the Heavenly King, so how could he dare to go against his will.

Xie Tong summoned Huo Zixin and the others over, prepared a table of wine and food, and celebrated.

Everyone didn't expect to take Jiangyin City so easily, the night before yesterday, everyone was still blowing the river breeze by the river, starving, but now they are eating and drinking in Jiangyin City, it is really unpredictable.

Duan Yuanjing said, "My lord is really clever, and he took Jiangyin without much effort, if you don't see it with your own eyes, it's really hard to believe!"

Xie Tong said, "How can it be so exaggerated as you say, after all, it still loses a lot of brothers!"

Huo Zixin smiled and said, "Brother Duan, Xie kid can't boast about it, this kid has a weird belly of bad water, hey, I can only blame Chen Daoting for not being lucky enough to meet him!"

The crowd laughed and raised their glasses.

Lai Kezhong said, "I don't know what the virtuous brother plans to do next."

Huo Zixin said, "It's not simple, send someone to inform Lord Wang, and let him send troops over!"

Lai Kezhong continued: "We have secretly captured Jiangyin, I am afraid that this matter will be known to the enemy in the near future, if the enemy leads the army to attack, all the 5,000 men and horses in this city will defect, I am afraid that they will not be able to hold out to Lord Wang." ”

Xie Tong nodded, and said, "Lord Wang will not send a soldier to take over Jiangyin, after all, the army is hundreds of miles away, and it is impossible to bypass the enemy's defense line and garrison a worthless city like us, not to mention, we can't hold it, what we have to do is to rest here for three days, and before the enemy finds out that Jiangyin is lost, all of them will evacuate."

Duan Yuanjing exclaimed, "My lord, there is a huge Jiangyin City, do you just give up?"

Xie Tong said, "Isolated and helpless, if we stay here, the whole army will be annihilated, and what we have to do is to conduct a large guerrilla operation, so that the enemy can not figure out our direction and route, so as to achieve the goal." ”

Duan Yuanjing was silent, but Xie Tong could clearly see his lost application. This bandit-turned-leader may just want to be able to fight the enemy openly!

Huo Zixin said, "Don't be discouraged, Master Xie's methods are endless, maybe one day he will knock down Suzhou and health for you."

Xie Tong scolded with a smile: "Where is Shao boasting!Lao Tzu doesn't have that skill yet!" He looked at Duan Yuanjing and said, "Brother Duan, how are the material reserves in Jiangyin City!"

Duan Yuanjing said, "All kinds of military materials are complete, and the food is very sufficient."

Xie Tong said, "That's good! I ordered to go down, let the brothers rest for three days, and set off in three days, and at the same time open a warehouse to help with grain, so that the people can remember our goodness!"

Duan Yuanjing said: "I'll send food early tomorrow morning!"

Huo Zixin said with a smile: "Xie Xiaozi's trick is ruthless enough, thousands of stones of grain have been distributed to the people, Huang Chao knows that he will be heartbroken!"

The next morning, before Xie Tong woke up, he heard the noise of the street, like a mountain shouting and a tsunami, Xie Tong called the guards and asked, "What's going on!"

The guard replied respectfully, "Lord Qiyu, Commander Duan opened a warehouse to help grain, and after the people of the whole city heard the news, they all rushed over, and the street of the granary was already blocked."

Xie Tong couldn't sleep anymore, so he planned to get up and take a look.

The scene in the granary simply stunned Xie Tong, and the people surrounded the front street of the granary like a tide, so that Xie Tong had to walk in through the back door.

Lai Kezhong and others were also at the door of the granary, and when they saw Xie Tong coming, they greeted with a smile.

Xie Tong walked over and said, "Why didn't Brother Lai sleep lazily, but came to help with food!"

Lai Kezhong said thoughtfully, "I don't hide it, I am also from a poor family, I have been hungry since I was a child, my parents died early, and after becoming a guest of the Hakka people, I completely walked out of the life of starvation and clothing, therefore, I still know the suffering of the people very well, although Huang Chao keeps saving the people, but from the perspective of our army all the way, the facts are contrary to the promise, and the people are still struggling to make a living. ”

Xie Tong looked at him, he really didn't know what to say, war is a nightmare for ordinary people, and only by eliminating war can the people live and work in peace and contentment.

Lai Kezhong saw him in a daze, and said, "Brother Xian, I don't know what our army plans will be next!"

Xie Tong returned to reality and said, "There is no target for attack for the time being, but the battle ahead will definitely require grain and grass, how about our army not attack the grain transport army of Huangchao first! In this enemy rear, the guards transporting grain should not have any resistance!"

Lai Kezhong smiled and said, "Huo Zixin, this kid is right, the virtuous brother is really a bad belly."

Xie Tong was puzzled, "The two armies are fighting, of course, they are doing everything. ”

Lai Kezhong continued: "There is a canal from Suzhou to Yanjing, which was built by Yang Guang, Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty, and presumably the enemy's grain and grass are pulled by big ships, rather than by land, do you have the ability to intercept big ships?" )
