Chapter 357: Liangshan Gathers Forces to Break the Officers and Soldiers
Let us also say that Huang An, the envoy of Jeju Prefecture's point dispatch regiment, and a member of the prefecture's robber catching officer, led more than 2,000 people to collect their own boats and transfer them to the lakeside of the small fishing village. The waterway was divided into two routes to capture Liangshan Park.
Huang An, the regimental training envoy, led his people onto the boat, waved flags and shouted, and rushed to the golden beach from the waterway, while the Jeju Prefecture's thief officer led a thousand people to station troops near the Liangshan River to respond.
The regiment training envoy Huang An looked at the beach approaching, but he could not see a single person along the way. Apart from the sound of the officers and soldiers paddling the water, the entire Liangshan waterfront was filled with the chirping of cicadas and insects. Other than that, it was quiet. Huang An's heart was so quiet that he had an unknown premonition inexplicably. It was like the enemy was in darkness and we were in the clear, exposing all the weaknesses of his body to the enemy's arrows. Huang An wiped the sweat from his forehead and looked at the fierce enemy. Yang, couldn't help but feel restless and unbearable. Just as Huang An walked a few more miles along the waterway with an uneasy mood, he suddenly heard the whining sound of trumpets blowing on the water.
When Huang An heard the sound, he was startled and said in shock: "This is not the sound of drawing horns. Please anchor the boat in the bay." The soldiers stopped in a hurry and anchored the boat here. Huang An put up a pergola with one hand and followed the drawing of horns. Sheng looked over there and saw three boats rowing far away on the water. Huang An took a closer look at the boats. There were only five people on each boat. Four people were rocking double oars, and each stood on the bow. One man wears a crimson turban on his head and wears the same red embroidered jacket, with a short knife stuck sideways at each waist. The oarsmen on the three boats are all dressed in the same way.
The villagers who were traveling with Huang An saw the person coming clearly, so they hurriedly rushed to Huang An and reported: "The three people on these three boats: one is Ruan Xiaoer, one is Ruan Xiaowu, and the other is Ruan Xiaoqi." ,"
When Huang An heard this, he thought that he had come just in time. I was about to arrest you desperadoes, but I happened to come out with these men and was hit by my soldiers. God asked me to arrest you and bring you to justice. Thinking of this, what happened next? Dreams of promotion and wealth came one after another. Huang An felt happy, and then filled with excitement, he pointed his hand towards the three boats over there and shouted: "Follow me, take these three people,"
After Huang An shouted, there were forty or fifty boats on both sides of him, shouting for death, rowing hard and rushing forward.
The people on the three boats looked at the officers and soldiers shouting and killing them, with smiles on their faces and no panic at all. Instead, they whistled at the officers and soldiers, laughed for a while, and then turned the bows of the boats together. , paddled and returned.
Huang Tuanlian was about to catch up, but he didn't expect that these three inconspicuous boats would disappear in the blink of an eye, and the officers and soldiers behind them could not catch up with them. Huang Tuanlian looked anxious and shouted again: "Just kill this thief and I will get a big reward,"
There must be brave men under heavy rewards. With Huang Tuanlian's words, the officers and soldiers were all excited and excited, and they all used their own abilities. The three boats walked in front, and the officers and soldiers behind them filled the boats. The arrow will pass.
The three Ruan looked at it with disdain on their faces. They each picked up an iron shield in the cabin to cover the arrows. The ding-dang-dang-dang was blocked by the shield, like moths rushing to a flame, without any trace. Exceptionally, it fell on a water boat.
When the officers and soldiers saw that their bows and arrows were useless, the people on the boat started laughing louder and louder, which made all the officers and soldiers angry and angry. They rowed the oars one by one at the risk of their lives, regardless of the battle formation of the boats. Like a boat race, they each pursued the three boats in their own battlegrounds.
However, they could not catch up to the water port of Ersanli. A small boat rowed back from the front as if it was flying and reported to Huang An: "Master Huang, don't rush. You can't catch up. You can't catch up."
When Huang An looked at this person, he saw that his body was soaked with blood, his hair was messy, and he looked even more miserable. He felt bad and said in his heart: "Don't panic, something happened ahead."
The soldier who escaped said: "They killed the boat we entered and threw it into the water. Now they have even taken the boat away."
Huang An was shocked when he heard this. He thought that the official ships were all big ships with more than 20 people. Even if one ship entered, how could it be killed by only a few people? So Huang An frowned and asked : "What happened, how did I fall into that guy's trap,"
The deserter replied in a panic: "We were catching up to the critical point and were about to catch up with the boat. Unexpectedly, at this time, two more boats came from a distance, each with five people in their clothes. They were dressed like that group. We took advantage of their small numbers and killed them with swords. However, they still separated and fled. The several large boats that came with us also separated. However, we could not catch up to four or five miles of water. Seven or eight small boats emerged from the small harbors on the four sides, and crossbow arrows were fired from the boats like locusts. When we rushed back to the boat, we came to the narrow harbor and saw about twenty or thirty people on the shore, leading one at each end. The big iron rope cut across the water, but when we moved forward and tried to rush through the rope, we were hit by the gray bottles and stones on the shore like raindrops. The officers and soldiers had to abandon their boats and go into the water to escape. I narrowly escaped death, but when I went to the dry road to ask for help, a thousand people and horses on the shore were gone, and the horses were also taken away. The soldiers guarding the shore were all killed in the water. I found this small boat by the reed pond and came to report to the regiment."
Huang An heard what was said and complained endlessly. He quickly asked the herald to wave the white flag and ordered all the ships not to rush, and to return to Huang An to gather around Huang An.
The soldiers turned the boat around after receiving the order. Before they could take action, they only heard the beating of war drums behind them, which was similar to the sound of rushing between the lakes. The officers and soldiers in the middle were shocked when they heard this, and turned back. When he looked at it, he saw that the three boats he had just chased were coming at high speed like arrows. However, at this moment, he was leading dozens of boats behind him. There were only three or five people on each boat. The one boat leading the charge, A man stood on the bow of the boat, waving a red flag in his hand, whistling in his mouth, and seemed to be flying towards me.
Huang An looked at this momentum and thought that there were only less than a hundred people. He secretly laughed at him for not overestimating his capabilities, so he ordered the ships to be separated and showed off their skills to prepare for the enemy.
However, just before Huang An's soldiers and horses controlled the ship, they heard the sound of cannons in the reeds all around.
Huang An was frightened when he heard this. When he looked back in panic, he saw red flags everywhere, and countless small boats came out of the reed swamp. Huang An looked around and the waterway was cut off. He could not advance or retreat. He panicked for a moment. hands and feet.
At this moment, a person on the boat who was fighting from the side shouted: "Huang An, leave the head and go back."
The officers and soldiers looked at the momentum of ambushes on all sides, and they were already losing most of the battle before they started fighting. None of them had time to care for themselves, let alone listen to the frightened and overwhelmed Huang Anlai's orders. So the officers and soldiers fled in all directions and were captured by Liangshan. Everyone was killed, leaving behind their helmets and armor, and their souls were lost.
Huang An saw that his soldiers had no intention of resisting, and in this moment, the entire fleet of officers and soldiers was scattered by the boats moored in Liangshan River. Huang An saw that he had no chance to recover, and he did not give up anymore. To take care of the life and death of those people, I looked around in a panic and saw the encirclement of Liangshan. It was thin and thick, but there was a flaw in this huge encirclement that Huang An could easily see. Huang An was like As if grasping a life-saving straw, he desperately ordered his men on several large boats around to steer the boat in the direction he was pointing, and protected him as he sailed across the reeds to the shore.
Huang An looked back and saw that no one was chasing him, but those officers and soldiers who were running around like headless flies in an attempt to break out of the encirclement were being killed by Liangshan's people. It was a tragic scene of blood and flesh, and the lake water over there was stained. There was a touch of blood red, and Huang An looked at it from a distance with great horror. Just when Huang An was hiding in Tibet, thinking that he was out of the siege of Liangshan people, before he could secretly rejoice, forty or fifty people suddenly emerged from the small harbor here. A small boat arrived, but Huang An hadn't even opened his mouth to exclaim. Without saying a word, crossbow arrows were fired from the boat over there like raindrops.
When Huang An scrambled for his way amidst the rain of arrows, there were only three or four small boats left around him. Huang An jumped into the fast boat. When he looked back, he saw that the officers behind him were also escaping. The people in Liangshan who were rushed up to kill were stabbed to death with swords and thrown into the water.
Huang An was driving a small speedboat when he saw Lin Chong standing on a boat beside the reeds. He caught Huang An's boat with a hook. Lin Chong pulled the boat to his own with a strong effort of his arms and suddenly jumped. He came over, grabbed him by the waist, and shouted: "Don't struggle, or I'll kill you."
The soldiers on the boat watched Huang Tuanlian being captured, and their faces were all pale with fear. Anyone who could know water hurriedly went into the water, but they couldn't swim very far, and they were shot by random arrows in the water. Those who were dead and did not dare to go into the water were captured alive by the Liangshan people who jumped out of the boat.
Huang An was dragged to the shore by Lin Chong. As soon as he got on the shore, from a distance, Chao Gai and Gongsun Sheng rode from the mountain side with swords and guns drawn, leading fifty or sixty minions behind them, and thirty or twenty cavalry in front. , all came to the lakeside to meet them.
In this battle, Liangshan's group captured one or two hundred officers and soldiers alive, and all the captured ships were collected and settled in the Nanshui stronghold. However, it took half an hour for all the troops and leaders to arrive at the stronghold.
Chao Gai took everyone to sit down in the Juyi Hall, and all the leaders went to put on their military uniforms.
The group sat down, captured Huang An and tied him to the general's pillar. They took the gold and silver satin and rewarded the young men.
A total of more than a thousand good horses were captured during the inspection. This was Shi Jin's credit, Donggang was the credit of Du Qian and Song Wan, Westport was the credit of the three Ruan heroes, and the capture of Huang An was the credit of Lin Chong. The leaders were overjoyed and killed Cows and horses are slaughtered, and there is a feast in the village.
Self-brewing good wine, fresh lotus roots and fresh fish from the water pool, fresh peaches, apricots, plums, plums, loquats, jujubes, persimmons, chestnuts, etc. from the trees in Shannan, self-raised chickens , pigs, geese, ducks, etc. There is no need to go into details, the leaders just want to celebrate.
It was no trivial matter that a new arrival in the village won a complete victory. While everyone in the village was enjoying themselves and drinking, a young man came up to the mountain anxiously and said: "The people from Leader Zhu at the bottom of the mountain are outside the village."
