Zhang Xianzhong and others were eagerly waiting for Zhu Youcong to enter the ambush circle, but the undistinguished general Zhenguo kept walking and stopping all the way. He would dismount his horse and run to the roadside from time to time to get involved, but refused to enter the valley. In the end,
What makes the rebels feel depressed is that this little fat man only sent a small team of people to stroll in front, but left the huge convoy behind. Judging from the situation, they were preparing to set up camp. But it was just after noon and it was still early.
Is he such a lazy general in charge of the army?
"Commander, what's going on? Could it be that the officers and soldiers noticed something strange and got scared?" Ma Shouying was now like a hungry dog with a big piece of fat hanging on his head, seeing delicious food in front of him but unable to eat it.
The feeling of scratching my heart and lungs was really uncomfortable.
"This...shouldn't be possible!" Zhang Xianzhong didn't have much confidence. He and his men were all ambushing in the valley. The forward troops who had just rushed over did not send anyone to search the mountain. Logically speaking, they must not have discovered the army ambushing in the mountain. But
How to explain the strange behavior of the group of people outside the valley?
"Commander, why don't we just send some people to rush down?" Zhang Miaoshou was also anxious. If nothing else, the large convoy in the distance would make people salivate. Someone who can disturb the opponent's military morale with big meat cakes.
, will they bring less food, grass, and military pay? Whether they can catch people is another question. Anyway, such a big credit will not fall on themselves; but if they capture more, their men can eat more.
A few full meals, right?
"Wait a minute..." Zhang Xianzhong didn't dare to be too careless before he fully understood the enemy's intentions. Who knew if this group of people was here to lure him and others to attack? What if the group of people strolling down the mountain was just a cover, and
But the real big fish is parked behind, so if you rush down, why don't you scare him away?
Zhu Youcong is not afraid, nor does he want to escape, but he has a new plan now. Don't think that he can't get information because the rebels are ambushing the mountains and sending spies. The soldiers in the reconnaissance camp are hiding, otherwise it would be like this
Years of rigorous training were in vain? They had already sneaked into the mountains when Xiong Zhaojuan's brigade set off, and found out the rebels' deployment. According to the latest intelligence, Zhang Xianzhong and the others are still very upright. One hundred thousand rebels are now
They were divided into two groups and nestled in the forest facing the valley. It seemed that they had to wait for Zhu Youcong's troops to enter the valley before launching an encirclement attack. Since everyone was so reasonable, Zhu Youcong certainly had no reason to lie.
He decided to simply block the entrance of the valley and force the rebels to come down the mountain and attack from the front.
"General, the arrangements have been made in the back. Can you see if we..." The people who accompanied Zhu Youcong looked relaxed on the surface, but in fact they were worried, for fear that an arrow would suddenly fly out of any corner and kill the target.
The huge general was injured.
"Let's walk again..." Zhu Youcong was also very unhappy. Why can't the rebels see a handsome guy like me wandering down the mountain? I don't ask you to send out all your elites to chase and intercept him, but why don't you?
It's time for someone to express my admiration! Hey... It seems that I'm not charming enough. After this battle is over, I must let the rebels remember my face well, so as not to make them ugly and beautiful.
separated!
"But..." The people who were temporarily recruited to serve as guards hesitated. If they were the only ones, let alone move forward, it would be nothing if they went to the rebel camp to sing folk songs, but now they are with the general.
You can't be careless and careful.
"In this way, we will walk to the big tree in front." Zhu Youcong held the last glimmer of hope and pointed to the front. If this still fails to attract the rebels, he will have to use that move even if he can't bear it.
It's a poisonous plot.
"Boss, you see, those people seem to be going back." The only person who could call Xing Honglang that among the rebels was his military advisor, the old Taoist surnamed Wei who ran out of who knows which temple...
"Go back, just go back. Anyway, the commander-in-chief didn't give the order, so we just stay here and don't move!" There is no way, who said that his strength is not as good as others, he deserves to be sent to the most dangerous front line to squat.
"Don't you think the man surrounded by them has a good background?" The old Taoist priest who ran out of the monk's temple must not be a serious person. In fact, Wei Laodao was also a spy from the White Lotus Sect to the rebels. Just now there was a sound coming from a distance.
Those few flashes of light were a special way for the White Lotus Sect's senior leaders to give them orders, and the meaning was very clear, which was to let him find a way to expose his target. Although he didn't quite understand what the leaders wanted to do, Wei Laodao decided to use himself
Xing Honglang jumped out with his wisdom.
"So what?" Xing Honglang answered absentmindedly. Who was at the foot of the mountain had nothing to do with him? Anyway, he just had to obey orders and direct his men to fight.
"If it's a big fish, we can't let him run away..." Wei Laodao was also anxious. If he couldn't complete the task assigned by his superiors, what if the leaders got angry and didn't pick him up before the rebels entered Liao?
What should I do if I go back? Is it possible that I have to go to Liaodong with the rebels and live the life of a savage living like a savage? Then I might as well shave my head and find a monk temple to stay!
"What does Master Yi mean?" Of course Xing Honglang knew that there was a rich man's precious son among the officers and soldiers, but he was still somewhat self-aware and did not expect to get such a big credit. But Xing Honglang also knew that
He is not a strategist that can be compared to a fake like Xu Yixian. If it weren't for his resourcefulness, why would his 10,000 or 20,000 subordinates be able to reap so many benefits with minimal casualties in every battle? Now he is so anxious.
, then he must have seen some huge benefits.
"Boss, you have also seen how nervous Mr. Nani is about this person. If our brothers are lucky enough to win the first prize, when we come to Liaodong, we won't..." In such a short time, Wei Laodao could not think of any good ideas, so he had to
Try to arouse Xing Honglang's greed. It's definitely not possible to use money now. The hundreds of people at the foot of the mountain are not worth much money no matter how well-dressed they are. No matter how stupid Xing Honglang is, he will not do it for such a small gain.
To take risks. It seems that things have to start with the better life in Liaodong in the future, and only the attention of the Tatars can tempt this former bandit.
"But over there with Marshal Zhang..." Xing Honglang is a good hand at killing people with a big knife, but it's too hard to ask him to use his brains to plan something. After hearing what Wei Laodao said, he also
He was a little excited. Whether Yamashita was the valuable fat man was not within his scope of consideration. Even if it wasn't a big deal, he would kill him all the way. What he was worried about was Zhang Xianzhong's reaction. If someone accidentally angered Marshal Zhang, who has a bad temper, that would be a big deal.
It's really hard to do.
"Hey! Let me tell you, Marshal Zhang is just too careful. Isn't there just less than 5,000 officers and soldiers? We have an army of more than 100,000 people and even one of us drowned them with just a spit, so what else do we have to worry about?
You know, such a good opportunity does not come every day..." Seeing that things were a little hopeful, Wei Laodao continued to use his eloquent tongue to deceive this guy with strong limbs and a simple mind. "Think about it again.
Ah, we are going to seek refuge with the Qing Dynasty this time. If our brother has made such a great contribution, will we still need to look at the face of Zhang in the future?"
On the mountain, he was trying his best to lure the rebels to act according to the Ming army's deployment. However, Zhu Youcong at the bottom of the mountain could not hide his disappointment and said to the people around him: "Let's go back. Prepare to burn the mountain!"
Logically speaking, it is not unusually difficult to set fire to the mountains at this time, but don't forget that as early as the Northern Zhou Dynasty, the soldiers and civilians of Jiuquan, Gansu Province had used "kerosene" to defeat the Turkic wolf cavalry. By the Later Liang Dynasty, they had already used
Incendiary bombs made from iron cans were used in water battles, and the "Martial Arts Summary" written by Zeng Gongliang of the Northern Song Dynasty introduced in detail how to use petroleum to make offensive weapons. How could that naughty old man Sun in Luoyang not know this?
?On this trip, Wang Zhizhen was ordered to bring hundreds of porcelain jars filled with "fire oil". As long as these things are thrown up the mountain, lighting a fire is just like playing?…
"Kill -" It seemed that Zhu Youcong was going to be disappointed again. Before he could turn his horse, Xing Honglang on the mountain finally couldn't resist the huge temptation and rushed out with thousands of his men.
"Coming?" Zhu Youcong finally felt a little relieved now, and he saved money again! It seems that those petroleum products do not need to be wasted, but should be reserved for the cooking team to cook, so as to save them from chopping up all the time.
Indiscriminate logging destroys the forest.
"Brother Zhang, what's going on?" Nimacha, who had been trying to identify the person at the foot of the mountain, first noticed something strange. These stupid Ming bandits acted without authorization before receiving military orders? It seems that they have not been trained.
It just doesn't work. If it were us, the warriors of the Qing Dynasty, how could we behave like this?
"Damn it, what is Xing Laosan doing?" Zhang Xianzhong, who was still hesitating, threw the riding whip on the ground angrily. That damn Xing Honglang dared to disobey the order and be exposed early. What if he scared away the big fish?
What is good?
"Commander, what do you think we should do?" Ma Shouying was also anxious. He was still waiting to catch the fat man with his own hands so that he could go to Liaodong to receive the reward. If that man was really among those hundreds of people, he would not let Xing Laosan
Got a huge bargain?
"What else can we do? Order the entire army to attack. Don't let any of the officers and soldiers escape!" There is no time to investigate the responsibility at this time. Since the target has been exposed, we can only fight to the end. But the enemy's simple camp should not be able to resist it.
How long has it been, the only trouble is that we can't let that general who is holding the country take advantage of the chaos to escape.
"Kill - grab the money, grab the food, grab the fat man!" Following Zhang Xianzhong's order, the rebels emerged from their hiding places, and for a while the shouts of killing filled the mountains and plains.
"Run! The thieves are coming! Run, protect the general!" The people following Zhu Youcong were also very cooperative, shouting loudly while retreating in a "panic"!
"Don't run too fast, fire two shots into the air!" Zhu Youcong was filled with hatred while giving the order. Damn Zhang Xianzhong actually dared to let the traitors shout such slogans? You'd better go to hell alone.
Come on, otherwise I won’t beat you into a pig’s head to show you what a real fat man is, and I won’t be the Ming Dynasty’s general!
