Chapter 111 Neat
The county town was too tall and well prepared. Lu Fang led his people to pass by and took a look, and gave up his plan to attack.
Although his subordinates were tired, they mostly carried horses, even though they were as thin as their masters.
The bandit turned around and marched straight north. During the period, they passed by Zhang Chun's tall fortress, which was not much better than the county town. The soldiers on the wall were even better than those of the county soldiers and the Fifth Battalion. Mr. Zhang was a sensible man. He did not just hoard money and grain, but used them to build powerful family soldiers. No matter whether the officials, bandits or barbarians came, they had to touch their foreheads first if they wanted to make a decision.
Seeing Lu Fang's red Chinese-character flag from afar, Zhang Chun, who also missed his glorious time in the previous dynasty, also felt a little contemptuous. He called his son Zhang Fen and pointed at Lu Fang and others.
"My son, remember that things are all compared. In the past, when the Han family was successful, people in the world felt that this was not good or not. The scholars also wrote letters to criticize my father all day long, treating him as a treacherous and pointing fingers at the government. This is to change, and people's hearts are beginning to feel that the Han Dynasty is better than now. In the future, many people will definitely appear under the banner of the Han family. We must learn to distinguish which fish are fish and which pearl are."
"If you read it wrong, it will be a disaster of extermination!"
Lu Fang did not stay outside the Zhang Manor for a long time. He saw that the surroundings seemed to be as solid as clear walls, so he continued to go north.
He has only one goal, the ferry!
Lu Fang sent someone to see the main force of the Fifth Battalion crossed the river and then dared to come. When he was entangled by the Huns' cavalry, he took the east coast ferry and set a fire to disrupt the military morale of the Fifth Battalion, so that he could be defeated by the Huns. Even if things didn't work, Lu Fang and his subordinates could still escape downstream by boat.
However, those who waited for Lu Fang at the ferry were not only the chaotic and weak refugees.
There is also the Xianzhang troops of the Fifth Battalion, which are still standing still with a spear and armor, and there is also a cavalry team in the east. They all wear yellow turbans on their heads and dress up as a new army to conceal their identity as a "bandit". The leader is Ma Yuan!
Ma Yuan narrowed his eyes and pointed to the person wearing a black fur among the enemy and said, "Lu Fang, do you take the initiative to bring people here, are you trying to surrender or offer your head?"
...
By the end of night, during the day, more than 400 Huns were driven into the ditch by the Fifth Reun and more than half of them had alarmed King Julin. He ordered his subordinates not to pass the ditch again. At the same time, he began to focus on Lian County as the center to gather all the troops that were defeated due to the great victory and robbery.
But the Huns, whose discipline was worse than the new army, had long dispersed all over the plains. They had captured some Lilu in groups. The obedient and loyal appearance in front of the Han emperors for the past sixty years disappeared. The killing and wildness that had been left in the blood were amplified by collective evil and began to have a carnival.
Behind the ruins of Lilu was a locust tree, with the tree tied tightly to the yard. From his position, you could see his father's motionless feet. His father fell in the yard, knocking his head on the stone slab and dying. Blood flowed along the gap and flowing to the feet of Lizhi.
He was moving his feet and unwilling to touch the blood. He had been scolding the ancestors of the Hu people, scolding the unpromising Xinjun, scolding himself who was lucky enough to hold the wall and did not take his family away as soon as possible. He was cursing and was exhausted and cried dry. He just started begging, begging the Hu people to give him a knife and have a good time.
But the Huns were not. They laughed very unrestrainedly in the house, and the crying of their wife and daughter in the room kept coming, which made him so painful that he could only raise his head and howl.
Today is the middle of the moon, the moon is very big and round. The heavens are watching the world, but don’t expect him to punish evil and promote good.
Two Hu people watching from the inside and outside fell to the ground in a quiet voice, and there was no time to issue a warning. A group of people wearing soap clothes entered the room and went to the family occupied by the Hu people in batches.
Several of them touched the outside of the yard, and the inside stopped howling, and just stared at them blankly. A young man came to him, cut the rope with a knife, and handed the handle to the inside, and said in a local accent: "Go!"
The inside was red eyes and rushed into the yard, stabbing the Hu people standing beside his father and peeing, then slashed the blade into the house. This time, the Huns' howlings came one after another!
Li was covered in blood. Next to the old father's body in the yard, a few bloody heads of the captain were placed. Li was carrying his wife and daughter who survived by chance, bowing to Mengze again and again, thanking him for saving his life.
"We are soldiers from the Fifth Battalion!"
Meng Ze was full of pride, although he had only been doing this for less than half a day.
This was the plan of the fifth reunion. After nightfall, the Hu people did not dare to run around. He selected a hundred brave men from the strokes, and the locals who were anxious and familiar with the Qianmo Road formed this team.
"General Swallowing Hu probably can't come back. To the west of the mountain is the territory of the Hu people, desert grasslands, and soldiers are lost. But to the east of the mountain is our familiar home court. The Hu people are also deaf and blind people here! Let them see how good the swords of the people in the new Qin Dynasty are!"
Similar incidents occurred in Linhe Geli. In just one night, the team brought back more than a hundred heads and thousands of refugees.
Wan Xiu, who had been taking people back and forth for several times, brought back a big surprise to the fifth reunion when it was dawn.
A man with a vertebral bun on his head but wearing a Hu suit was tied to his horse by Wan Feng, and he was carried and thrown in front of the fifth reunion.
"We were ordered by Sima to sweep the barbarians along the river, but thirty miles south, we found a group of people trying to cross the river to the east bank with a sheepskin raft. At first, we thought they were fleeing people, but when we got closer, we found something wrong, so we captured them."
The man in Hu's clothes in the lead did not say a word, while the rest were Xiongnu, so he couldn't ask about Mingtang.
The fifth reunification directly asked Brother Biao to torture the man. He only spoke after breaking the first finger, but said irrelevant words, saying that he was just an innocent citizen and was forced to lead the way by the Hu people and begged to let go.
What a joke, the Great New King's Army didn't even let go of innocent people, let alone these suspicious people.
His words could not deceive the dialect master of Diwulun: "I heard that your accent doesn't look like a local, but a Sanshui person. Could it be that he is a subordinate of Lu Fang?"
This person shut up again. At this time, he found someone who could speak the Xiongnu. After interrogating several Hu people with him, he learned that this person really came from Anding, and was Lu Fang's brother Lu Qin!
It turned out that Lu Qin was ordered by King Julin to smuggle to the east bank and contact Lu Fang to respond. If he was not helping, he would take him over and return to the Huns together. Unexpectedly, he was captured by Wan Xiu after he arrived by the river.
Qibiao broke Lu Qin's finger and cursed: "You brother claims to be Liu. Why are you? Is he a bastard or you a bastard?"
At this time, a cheer sounded on the other side of the shore. Di Wulun and others were confused. Wan Xiu was asked to guard the chariots by the canal. He went to the ferry to watch, but saw a boat ferrying on the other side of the shore. The boat was carrying not people, but a full bow!
"I'm lucky to be unfair."
Ma Yuan bowed to the fifth reun: "Lu Fang was indeed lucky and wanted to take people to attack the ferry. Seeing that our power was going to stop, he encountered the Xuan army and the county soldiers who came from the county town when he evacuated. Zhang also sent his disciples to help, surrounded hundreds of people and killed 300 on the spot. Only more than a hundred people fled in the night and were trying their best to search."
Ma Yuan pulled the red Chinese flag and presented it to the fifth reunion, pointed to the head of the boat and said, "The governor, governor, county magistrate under Lu Fang... and other censors, soldiers, etc., good guys, there are five three ministers, and there are more than a dozen nine ministers."
"The civil and military officials in the court are neatly arranged, and they are all here."
The fifth reunion was happy: "Where is Lu Fang himself?"
Ma Yuan brought a hideous head over: "The prisoners all said that Lu Fang is wearing black fur clothes under his command. After I personally chased and killed them, most of the prisoners were dead. Among the surviving people, some said yes, and some said no."
"It's okay, Lu Fang's brother has been arrested, so he will know as soon as he recognizes it."
The fifth reunion asked someone to take Lu Qin over, and asked him to identify "Lu Fang's head" in the fire.
After taking a look, Lu Qin was overjoyed, but he only lowered his head and cried bitterly: "My brother, you have not accomplished a big thing yet, and you have been a slutty hand..."
"Stop pretending!"
Seventh Biao stepped on him on the ground, and at the order of the fifth reunion, he broke all of Lu Qin's ten fingers. He asked once every time he broke it, "Is this Lu Fang?"
"yes!"
Lu Qin was bleeding from his teeth. He always gritted his teeth and fainted from pain in the end.
The fifth relationship is still a little suspicious, and only let people take over "Lu Fang's head". Anyway, after the stability of the vassal state was first accused and recognized by the court, even if Lu Fang was really the case, it would not be difficult to contribute to the merits.
But Lu Qin is OK. In addition, the third brother Lu Cheng who had long died, the family must be neatly arranged.
After all the people at the ferry crossed the river, the fifth reunion also arrived at the east bank.
Thousands of refugees in the three counties of the West Bank were temporarily placed here. Xuan Biao has led people to help them build shacks, burn bonfires to keep warm, and organize people to patrol to prevent thieves from committing evil deeds, which has allowed the people to settle down.
Now I heard that those fellow villagers who were rescued from the atrocities of the Hu people told me that the fifth reunion returned, and their attitude was completely different from the morning guard. The elderly and elderly came over and bowed their heads to the fifth reunion again and again, thanking them for their gratitude.
The fifth reunion brought Meng Ze and others who had frequently attacked last night: "A hundred children from my hometown have also volunteered to join me. With them standing guard for you, you can feel at ease!"
Hearing this, the people were overjoyed. Indeed, although the Fifth Battalion was different from the general New Army, the children of the Party in their hometown could still trust them more.
The fifth relationship also made people push several captive Xiongnu people up, and let the people who left their hometown beat them to death and vent their anger. After everyone was tired of fighting and venting their anger, they promised that they would bring food from the camp to build a porridge shed tomorrow.
The fifth rein thought that after he had suppressed so many sporadic barbarians, the main force of the Huns would definitely be angry and sent troops to attack. However, the next day, the carts by the canal were waiting for the morning, but no Hu people attacked.
Wan Xiu, who was sent out to explore the news, came to the return, saying that the Huns were retreating one after another and had left Lian County, and the main force had reached the foot of Helan Mountain, dozens of miles away.
At this distance, the fifth reunion could only sigh.
The reason for the evacuation was not only that the Hu people had plundered enough, but also because a new army of thousands of people was heading from north to south and could reach the city of Shanghe in the afternoon. Wan Xiu and his vanguard scout came to the front.
"Who is coming?"
"Captain Dou Rong."
"Dou Rong?" Wu Lun thought hard and seemed to be the eldest brother-in-law of Dasikong Wang Yi, probably because he was a nepotism.
"Du Zhou Gong is from Pingling. I have seen me, so I have to avoid it for a while." Ma Yuan immediately prepared to leave.
And at this moment, a famous scene that made the fifth reunion unforgettable appeared.
But when he was closed for several days, the Shanghe City Gate, which was unwilling to open even for help from the people, suddenly opened wide. The captain Liang Qiuci rushed out with two thousand soldiers and marched hard towards the direction where the Huns left, as if chasing the enemy who was already in the sky.
For a moment, the flags swayed, the spears and halberds were facing the sky, and the crossbowmen even stopped and aimed and shot in the empty wilderness!
The royal army marched north in a fierce manner, and after half an hour he returned arrogantly, cheering: "Great victory, all the captains have been expelled by the Liangqiu Captain! The little Huns escaped in a panic!"
"Recover all the lost land!"
The fifth reunion was stunned. After all, Liang Qiuci was not bad enough. If he had replaced other friendly troops, he might have slaughtered a few people in the Lilu and carefully combed their heads to repay their merits.
But he set his mind on the side of the fifth reunion and sent someone to ask Boyu Sima to go to Shanghe City for a while.
When the people knocked on the door for help, when the barbarians were rampant and violent, and when our army crossed the river and fought to the death, what did you do?
The fifth reunion immediately sent all the heads of the Hu people to the east coast, and did not give any of them to Liangqiu. He only agreed to give them to the priests and county magistrates of Tewu County so that Tewu County can maintain a unified caliber, and at the same time, he ordered Wan Xiu to go to Dou Rong's army to join him again.
The Hu people retreated very quickly, and the fierce battle on the battlefield was over. It was the turn of the battle on the case table.
After changing the past, the fifth reunion was still happy to endorse Liang Qiu, but now his wings are hard, stabbing his friendly troops, and his boss's hand is itchy again.
It's time to tear off the mask: "I'll let Liang Qiuci get out of here, and I'll take over the defense of the four counties in Xinqinzhong. Wouldn't it be nice?"
