Chapter 47 Infighting
Looking up, there was a closed city gate in front of me. After turning around, the Japanese pirates had already started to clean the battlefield. They held simple shields, collected various weapons from the ground, and searched for valuable items from the dead bodies.
His fingers tried to curl up slightly, and Uncle Peng smiled bitterly and thought to himself that he was really old. He was injured twice in a row in such a small scene, so he fell into a desperate situation.
Uncle Peng has been in the Lu family for twenty years. He started with Lu Tong, and has never left all the wars between all and all.
In terms of military achievements and qualifications, if it were released in the early years, a hundred households would be fine, but Uncle Peng still stayed in the Lu family and chose to assist Lu Bin, the most talented youngest son of the Lu family, after Lu Tong was imprisoned.
During the first charge, Uncle Peng was injured in his left hand. When he turned around for the last rush, Uncle Peng was severely injured in his right hand and right shoulder. Even if he wanted to commit suicide, he couldn't pick up the knife.
Close your eyes...
Try to keep your breath closed...
But the move to get away with it was soon discovered. The reason was very simple. He forgot that the fine leather armor he was wearing was a good thing for the Japanese pirates.
Although he has been defeated more and won less than he won over the years, his subordinates have also killed dozens of Japanese pirates. How could Uncle Peng be willing to fall into the opponent?
But before I could do anything, Uncle Peng felt relieved.
The reason was very simple. A sharp arrow flew down from the city wall and penetrated into his throat obliquely.
After a brief sob, Uncle Peng closed his eyes again.
"Qian Yuan!"
"Qian Yuan!"
Lu Bin, whose eyes were red, pulled out his waist and rushed towards Qian Yuan without hesitation. Yang Wen and Zhang San also put the spear flat without hesitation.
The city wall was tense for a moment, and even Zheng Ruozeng and Gui Youguang were staggering and being pushed into the distance.
Qian Yuan glanced at him expressionlessly, turned around and patted the Wang family guard's shoulder. He couldn't see clearly outside the city before, but this time he saw it very clearly, and he was simply a sniper.
"Don't, Master!"
"Young Master, don't be impulsive!"
The personal soldiers around Lu Bin reacted quickly. Four or five people stopped in the middle, snatching the knife, and hugging the waist, surrounding Lu Bin tightly.
"Qian Yuan, wait for me!"
"Should you wait!"
At the beginning, he still spoke harshly, but soon Lu Bin began to speak nonsense, but the personal soldiers were a little helpless. Their name was the Ming army, but in fact they were basically private soldiers of the Lu family. How dare they block the mouth of their young master?
But everyone knew that the situation outside the city was extremely dangerous before, and it was the scholar Songjiang who took the risk of sending people out of the city to turn the tide. Speaking of which, it was everyone's life-saving benefactor.
Qian Yuan waited for a while and watched the Japanese pirates gradually leaving, but Lu Bin still couldn't stop talking. He was a little impatient.
"Get out of the way." Qian Yuan walked past the guards, then passed the Lu family's personal soldiers, and stood in front of Lu Bin, looking straight into the other party's bloodshot eyes.
"Let go." Qian Yuan said lightly.
"Mr. Qian..."
"Let go."
The left and right soldiers hesitated to let go. Before Lu Bin could move, a loud slap suddenly rang out.
"Bang!"
Yang Wenlun, who was worried that Qian Yuan would take a few steps forward, looked at his young master with a slap and flipped the son of Lu Tong, the Western Ginseng General, to the ground.
"Are you awake?"
Qian Yuan put on the hem of the long gown and squatted down, "I'm not awake, I can give you a few more."
The Lu family's personal soldiers had different expressions. Some were already drawing their swords to prepare for internal conflict. Some pushed forward a few steps and stared at the Qian family guards opposite. Some nodded secretly. To be honest, it was their own young master who was looking for a slap this time!
"The thief went out of the city to attack the thief and killed thirteen people in battle. The village hero fled in all directions. Only seven people fled into the city from the East City Gate, and the remaining more than a hundred people died for a lifetime."
"Uncle Peng shouldn't die, should those more than a hundred people die?"
"General's Hu Zi, General's Hu Zi, I think it is a tiger father and a dog son."
Under Qian Yuan's sharp eyes, under such sharp and merciless words, Lu Bin, who finally regained his mind, gritted his teeth and lowered his head.
The other party was right, because he was confused and was encouraged by Gui Youguang to leave the city. Then he was only concerned about rushing to the battlefield and was lured into the enemy deeper. If the young man in front of him had not insisted on leaving the city to respond, everyone would have died at the city of Jiading.
Lu Bin suddenly raised his head, "But why..."
Before he finished speaking, Qian Yuan quickly interrupted, "I have my reason, want to know?"
He reached out and pulled Lu Bin up, Qian Yuan whispered: "Senior Zheng has mixed the remaining rural brave men and soldiers, and beware of Japanese pirates stealing the city at night. Go and see, wait until the county corps finds me."
...
The attacking Japanese pirates disrupted everything in Jiading City, and even the bangs stopped ringing at night. Qian Yuan estimated that it was about ten o'clock in the evening.
Asked Yang Wen to open the window, a cool breeze blew from the small pond in the county government's backyard. Qian Yuan put down the fan in his hand and raised the teacup to look at Lu Bin opposite him, "Do you understand now?"
After a while, Lu Bin nodded awkwardly, "I understand."
"Mr. Zheng and I have discussed it and the preparations are ready."
The house fell into silence again. After a while, Lu Bin asked uneasyly: "What is the chance of success?"
"Fifty percent." Qian Yuan said expressionlessly: "If the township heroes had not disbanded and the city was under insufficient troops, I would never have taken this dangerous plan."
Lu Bin felt a redness on his face, and he cursed a few more words in his heart, Gui Youguang, that turtle.
Although there are at most two or three hundred Japanese pirates outside the city, the total number of people in the city is only this. Lu Tong and Yu Dayou will definitely not be able to withdraw their men from helping each other in a short period of time. There is no need to expect Zhenhaiwei and Jinshanwei.
If you hold on like this, Jiading City will not be able to defend it in a few days. Qian Yuan and Zheng Ruozeng have to give up the plan that they are determined to stick to.
Looking at Lu Bin's leaving figure, Qian Yuan, beside the candlelight, couldn't help but sigh. In the war against Japanese destiny in the southeast, Lu Tong was the famous general second only to Qi Jiguang and Yu Dayou. The people even drew the three of them in a row to draw the "three generals in the anti-Japanese destiny" together.
However, Qian Yuan had never heard of the name Lu Bin in his previous life. Although he was born into a general and had extraordinary martial arts skills, he obviously lacked experience. If he could survive this level, he might be able to stand alone in the future.
After driving away those mixed thoughts, Qian Yuan began to carefully take stock of possible loopholes in the plan.
If he could defend himself, Qian Yuan would never take risks. Unfortunately, everything was destroyed by Gui Youguang. He was really a thief.
The excitement before going on battle in the daytime, the excitement of killing Japanese pirates, the depression of defeat, the sadness of Uncle Peng's death, and the hope that he felt after listening to the Songjiang scholar telling the plan, all kinds of emotions were mixed together, and Lu Bin felt a little at a loss.
When he walked out of the yard slowly and was about to leave the county government, Lu Bin suddenly saw that the light was still on in the side room. He hesitated for a while and pushed the door open.
"Mr. Zheng, there is no rest yet."
"President Lu." Zheng Ruozeng smiled and stood up, "Is the wound okay?"
"It's bandaged, but it's just a minor injury." Lu Bin had to go to a private school to study in addition to martial arts since he was a child. He looked down at the table with all kinds of food and pay and weapons books, "Thank you for your hard work, sir."
Zheng Ruozeng smiled bitterly and said, "Nothing is hard work."
Seeing the admiration on Lu Bin's face, Zheng Ruozeng's bitterness became even stronger, "It's really not hard work. He transferred escorts, food and wages from wealthy families, distributed them to soldiers, township tycoons, and yamen runners, and left some as a supplement for the rest. All things are very complicated. I thought I would be busy for a long time, but..."
"But Mr. Qian only took one hour to deal with it. I just checked it, and there was no mistake."
Lu Bin was born in a general. He has always known that these things are simple, but they are very complicated to deal with. My father was busy with these things, and he often made mistakes in a hurry... No wonder his father said before that Songjiang scholar is really good at being a master!
