The next day, Chao Gai personally sent everyone down the mountain. While he was having a farewell drink with everyone on the Golden Beach, a strong wind suddenly blew.
It was already mid-October, the wind was freezing, and this gust of wind made people shiver.
When everyone was trying to avoid the sudden strange wind, they heard a "click" sound, and Wu Yong's military flag was cut into two pieces at the waist.
Lin Chong waited for the person Chao Yong ordered, and his expression changed when he saw this ominous sign.
Li Kui stared at the bull's eye and said: "The empress of the Nine Heavens Xuannv is unable to manifest her spirit."
Chao Gai was a bit superstitious at first, but he recalled Chao Yong's assertion that the victory was less and the defeat was more, and he couldn't help but said: "Just when we came down the mountain, the wind blew and broke the military flag. I'm afraid it will be disadvantageous to the army. It's better to wait for a few days and choose a good time and auspicious day to bring back the army."
It’s never too late to send troops.”
It was Wu Yong's first time to lead an army on an expedition. Although he felt a little ominous, he did not want people to think that he was timid. He smiled and said: "The wind and clouds in the world are so strange. Besides, the weather is getting colder and the delay is getting longer. It may be uncertain."
At some point there will be heavy snow that blocks the road, making marching even more inconvenient, and the army retreats as soon as it comes down the mountain, losing its strength. Wu Yong then requested to send out troops today, hoping for permission from the King of Heaven."
Chao Gai and Wu Yong have also been close friends for many years. Seeing Wu Yong's determination, he had no choice but to say: "The military advisor must be careful with his troops. If things are not harmonious, he will withdraw first and we will discuss it later."
When Wu Yong heard what Chao Gai said, he couldn't help but feel a little unhappy in his heart, but his face remained calm and he said: "I will obey the order of the King of Heaven."
Wu Yong led the army out of the mooring and looked towards Cangzhou.
When Chao Gai returned to the mountain, he felt uneasy, so he ordered Dai Zong to go down the mountain to inquire about the news.
Wu Yong led his troops out of the water pool and looked at the mighty army moving forward, feeling very high-spirited.
The nearby state capitals have received documents from the Privy Council, ordering them to guard the city to prevent the Liangshan bandits from plundering the city. After detecting the entry of the Liangshan army, the city gates were all closed, and no state government dared to send troops to disturb the city.
The journey was uneventful, and within a few days, the army arrived at the border of Cangzhou and descended to the village gate ten miles outside Zengtou City.
Wu Yong saw that it was still early, so he led the leaders to see the topography of Zengtou City.
When everyone rode horses to the outside of Zengtou City, they found that it was indeed a dangerous place.
This Zengtou City was built on a high hill, with steep terrain on three sides and a slightly flat terrain on one side. However, a stockade was built on this side, which felt like one man was in charge of the gate and no one could open it.
When Wu Yong saw the terrain of Zengtou City, he felt a little worried. He didn't expect that for the first time he led his troops on an expedition, he would encounter such a place that was easy to defend and difficult to attack. Even if he could defeat it, he would only lose many men and horses.
There are not many, but if Chao Gai and his son led the army and suffered many casualties, it would be unsightly.
Although Wu Yong was troubled in his heart, he pretended to be calm and calm. He shook his feather fan and said, "Let's walk around Zeng Tau Market and see if there are any flaws."
The leaders responded and were about to turn their horses away when they saw the gate of Zengtou City open and a group of horses and men flying out. There were seven or eight hundred men and horses, all strong men, including dozens of horsemen.
At first a man, wearing a copper helmet and a chainmail, holding a steel gun in his hand, rushed forward, then reined in his horse and shouted: "You are an anti-national grass bandit in Liangshanshuipo, robbing the state and plundering the government, and you are harming me."
How many people are there? My brothers and I have long wanted to take you to ask for rewards, but we didn't expect you to come to our door. If you are dismounted and bound, I will not let you suffer more. If you are caught in the battle, I must let you know that I have
The methods of the five tigers in the family."
It turns out that after Zengtou City robbed the Liangshan war horses, they were also afraid that the Liangshan army would attack, so they were on guard at dawn and night. Today, however, Zeng Kui, the fourth son of the Zeng family, was on duty. Seeing that the leader of Liangshan dared to ride lightly to check the terrain of Zengtou City, he immediately
He led his soldiers and horses and rushed out, hoping to capture some leaders so that they could go back to the court in exchange for rewards.
Wu Yong thought about the way Zhuge Liang was calm and calm in the book, pointing out the country. He also shook his feather fan and said with a smile: "Who will go out with me to capture this man?"
"The military advisor asked me to go get this person."
As soon as he finished speaking, a man rode out of the battle to attack Zeng Kui.
When Wu Yong saw it was Lin Chong, he nodded with relief.
On a normal day, the leader of the battle would be either Thunderbolt Fire Qin Ming or Double Spear General Dong Ping. Today, Lin Chong was thinking about Chao Yong's various orders and wanted to take advantage of the war to see how the people in Zengtou City were doing in martial arts. If it was true,
If his martial arts skills are strong, he will be more vigilant. If his martial arts skills are weak, he will have to destroy Zengtou City in one go.
Lin Chong rode out of the battle and shouted: "I'm Lin Chong, the leopard leader. If you don't kill nameless ghosts with a gun, you can give me a name."
Zeng Kui said: "My grandfather is Zeng Kui, the fourth of the five tigers in the Zeng family. You, the leopard-headed one, are also a bandit leader. The imperial court has offered a reward of three thousand guan to you. Today, grandpa will capture you first with the three thousand guan."
After saying that, he hit the horse and rushed over.
When Lin Chong saw this, he also tried his best to fight against Zeng Kui.
I could see that Lin Chong was holding a snake spear that was eight feet long and appeared like a snake, while Zeng Kui was holding a steel spear in his hand, and he was very confident in his advance and retreat.
For a time, the fight was evenly matched.
When the fight lasted for more than thirty years, Zeng Kui realized that he could not defeat Lin Chong. He made a feint and passed Lin Chong's snake spear, then turned his horse and walked back.
Lin Chong was afraid that Zeng Kui was cheating, so he turned his horse around and came back instead of chasing him.
Hua Rong saw the sound of horse hooves suddenly coming from Zengtou City, and said: "There may be a large group of people coming out of Zengtou City, and we don't have any troops, so why not go back and wait until the next day to fight again."
Wu Yong looked calm and nodded: "Instructor Lin won a small victory, which can be said to be a victory. Everyone who came all the way is tired of thinking about it, so we will go back to rest for the night. Tomorrow we will break through this Zengtou market."
At that moment, everyone turned their horses' heads and headed towards the lower village.
"Don't leave the bandits."
Zeng Kui had also heard the noise behind him. He must have been his brother and teacher Shi Wengong. Su Ding got the news and came to help. When he saw Wu Yong and others turning their horses to leave, he couldn't help but yelled and caught up.
Wu Yong heard loud shouts of killing from behind, and knew that if he was entangled by this group of people, reinforcements from Zengtou City would probably surround him. If one of them failed, all the leaders would be killed. Without the leadership of the leaders, Liangshan
I'm afraid the entire army will be wiped out.
At this time, Wu Yong also regretted not bringing more soldiers and horses.
Dong Ping saw that Lin Chong had been victorious for a while, but he ran away in a hurry not wanting to be chased. He shouted: "I can't wait to turn back and kill this group of birds before leaving."
At this time, Wu Yong could no longer think about what Zhuge Liang would be like when he was being chased. He panicked and said, "The enemy is outnumbered and we are outnumbered. We must not turn around to fight."
When Dong Ping heard this, he had no choice but to follow Wu Yong and escape.
Hua Rong was a little unwilling, took out his bow and arrow, turned around and looked at Zeng Kui's throat, who was leading the way, and shot the arrow.
Zeng Kui, however, was very skilled in martial arts. When he saw Hua Rong's arrow coming, he turned sharply and narrowly dodged it.
However, a horse soldier behind him failed to react in time and fell off his horse with a scream.
Zeng Kui saw Hua Rong's excellent archery skills and did not dare to pursue him. (To be continued. Please search Piao Tian Literature, the novel is better and updated faster!)
