Water Margin farming to become powerful

Chapter 390
It would take at least three days to go back to Liangshan, and Song Jiang couldn't imagine how terrifying the front would be.

Turning around in the morning, sure enough, Song Jiang's slower and slower team was caught up by the guards.

When the booming sound of the cannon came again, the people around Song Jiang had no fighting spirit, and some even knelt down to pray to the gods and Buddhas, but they were chopped down by the team supervising the battle.

Those who disturb the morale of the army should not be left behind when the army is defeated.

With such strict law enforcement by Liang Shanzhong, no one dared to say something depressing when the guards came after them, but everyone had a look of fear in their eyes.

Song Jiang called the leaders around him to discuss: "If you run like this, you will only run slower and slower."

There were only Zhu Dian, Lei Heng, Chai Jin, Yang Lin, Mu Hong, Hua Rong and other leaders left around, and everyone was inevitably nervous when talking about the situation at this time.

Hua Rong suggested: "Their guards are only able to do something on land. If we go back to the Liangshan River and rely on the eight hundred miles of water to defend, we can still advance and retreat. The most urgent thing now is to escort brother first. Back in the cottage, if something happens to my brother, our cottage will really be shaken."

Song Jiang stayed with his closest people, and he nodded after thinking about it.

Lu Fang grimaced and said, "Leave the ones who can't walk first, block them for a while, and only take the elite back, no matter how much you lose, brother's safety is the most important thing, and other things are irrelevant at this time."

Song Jiang thought for a while, with a look of pain on his face, and finally nodded.

After everyone's discussion was over, they saw Kong Liang's face turned pale beside him.

His men and horses are the most useless in the team. Half of them have been separated when they ran here, and the remaining half must be whipped to move forward. If he wants to give up, he must give up his men and horses first.

Seeing him like this, Song Jiang smiled softly and said.

"Teacher, go back to the village with me."

Kong Liang's face instantly turned from worry to joy, he was Song Jiang's apprentice, no matter what Song Jiang would not ignore this little affection in the army, he took him away as expected.

As for the bandit brothers under Kong Liang, most of them are going to be left behind, but what does this have to do with him, Kong Liang?

After a stick of incense, Lin Chong and Ling Zhen, who were behind, were told to organize troops to build a camp to stop the pursuit of the guards and cover Song Jiang's brother back to the mountain.

It was Zheng Tianshou, the white-faced gentleman who came to inform the news, and he said with a serious face: "The safety of Liangshan rests on the three of us. My brother allocated 2000 of us. You must know that the soldiers and horses in my brother's hands are not counted. Many, that's why my brother trusts us."

Lin Chong frowned and looked at him for a while, then nodded and went to make arrangements.

On the other hand, Ling Zhen was heartbroken.

During the time he was going up the mountain, he had roughly seen the situation. There were originally two factions of Song Jiang and Chao Gai on Liangshan. The Ruan brothers and others were suppressed by Song Jiang.

Lin Chong was the hero who helped Chao Gai win the position of Uncle Liangshan on Liangshan back then. People on both sides tried to win him over, and he himself was very good at fighting, so he has always been on Liangshan and his position is stable. Bringing the elite back to Liangshan, leaving people to defend, but immediately chose to abandon Lin Chong and himself, the official general who had just surrendered to Liangshan, with a strong intention of throwing away his pawns to protect his commander.

As for Zheng Tianshou, the white-faced lord, he came down from Qingfeng Mountain.

He and the dead Wang Xiaohu and Yanshun were all Song Jiang's loyalists. This guy said he was guarding the camp with him, but in fact he meant to supervise the army.

I and Lin Chong had less than 1000 people under them, and the other 2000 of the so-called 1000 people Song Jiang left to them were naturally in the hands of Zheng Tianshou, and I couldn't escape even if I wanted to.

What about brotherly loyalty? At this time, not only do you have to send yourself to death, but you also have to be on guard against yourself...

But here and now they have no choice.Lin Chong and Lin Zheng could only organize defense on the spot.

Song Jiang came to cry for a while and then left.Instead, a lot of gold and silver treasures were left behind.

Both Lin Chong and Ling Zhen were officers who came out of the ranks, and their tactical level was much higher than that of the original bandits, landlords, and small capitals on Liangshan.

Lin Chong's combat experience was very rich with Liangshan's southern and northern wars, and Ling Zhen was one of the rare talents with a vision for using firearms.At this time, the two cooperated and quickly found a position suitable for defending the Musketeers.

The camp built by more than 2000 horses should be very stable in theory, but at this time, everyone in the Liangshan army is in danger. Seeing Song Jiang's brother go away with the banner, they all know that they are abandoning soldiers.

Although they were building a position, everyone looked as if they were mourning.

The guards didn't give them too much time, they arrived just after noon.

At the beginning, the guards didn't talk too much, and directly attacked the position with artillery.

Ling Zhen has seen the firepower of Liangshan before, so the position is at an elevation angle. It is not easy for the cannons of the protection army to hit this place. The elevation angle of the bronze cannon is not high. It is easy to turn somersaults, and maybe it can kill the fired artillery. If you do not use the elevation angle, you must use the parabola method to calculate the trajectory, then you must pull the cannon very far, but in this way, the accuracy of the bronze cannon wants to Hitting the camp is almost impossible.

The regiment that charged up first was not an artillery regiment. After a few bronze cannons failed to work, the regiment leader could only choose to use musketeers to attack the fortifications. It is impossible to bypass this position, but if you want to seize it, you can only add people to it, and Lin Chong and the others need to send a small number of troops to attack the channel for the Musketeers to attack. The effect of blocking the enemy.

The two companies that rushed forward were all beaten and retreated.

When the iron-faced Pei Xuan came to the front line, the head of the fifth regiment had a lawsuit on his forehead.

Seeing Pei Xuan's arrival, he didn't have much joy on his face. Supervisor Pei is a political cadre. He just ran over from the position of capturing prisoners. He rode a few horses. He ran fast, but you can't use Supervisor Pei to charge, right?
Ask the infantry of the Protectorate Army behind Pei Xuan, if they want to catch up, they will have to wait until evening at least.

The time for the pursuit could not be delayed for a moment. The commander of the fifth regiment received the order as the main force to rush to the front and try to prevent Liangshan's team from returning to Liangshanpo.

Once these elite bandits returned to the stronghold and flooded into the sea, the losses caused to the brothers who attacked Liangshan later would be many times greater.

After the second company was exhausted, the head of the fifth regiment gritted his teeth: "It's not like we haven't fought the fierce battle on Dulonggang. The first battalion transferred two companies to prepare, and we must take this high ground!"
