Chapter 491: Direct Attack on the Rear

On the rugged mountain roads of Jiangxi, Qin Wakuai and You Erlang led a troop of a thousand men and marched slowly, and their target was Leping County not far away.

Qin Wakuai lived in a village under Leping County. When he was thirteen or fourteen years old, he followed his village friends through a small path to sneak into Leping County.

You Erlang lived in the county town, but his family had been moved to Changsha Prefecture, and only some distant relatives and neighbors still lived in the county town.

So the division of labor between the two is very simple, one is responsible for beating and the other is responsible for comforting.

Suddenly, Qin Wa Kuai raised his hand and signaled the troops behind him to slow down.

"Old Qin, is this the path you were talking about?" You Erlang looked at the mountain path in front of him covered with thick fallen leaves and felt a little amused.

"That's right!" Qin Wa Kuai nodded and said cheerfully, "It's because there are so few people that it's like this! Otherwise, how can it be called a secret passage?"

"You're amazing!" You Erlang gave a thumbs up, full of admiration.

"Stop talking nonsense, I'll lead the way, brothers follow! After we climb over this mountain, we can see Leping County." Qin Wakuai said, and he was the first to go up.

You Erlang was directing the soldiers from the rear, with one leading the way in front and the other holding the line in the back, and they worked in perfect harmony.

Seeing that the captain and deputy captain were leading the charge, the soldiers had no complaints in their hearts. They gritted their teeth, climbed up the trees, and climbed up step by step.

In the evening, under the reflection of the setting sun, the white clouds are painted golden and pink, colorful.

The clouds float in the wind, and the rays of light change and flow, rendering the magnificent colors to the extreme, shocking and beautiful.

Zhang Ermazi stood on the top of the city looking at the beautiful scenery, spitting at the people below and saying, "Damn it, you left me here to watch over the city while the other brothers went to the front to fight for military merits, right? Even if I can't be a general, I'll be a local emperor for a while!"

As he said that, he turned around and walked down the city wall, and ordered the guards behind him: "Go and snatch Chen Xiucai's wife for me. This bastard talks nonsense all the time. I have been displeased with him for a long time. It is a sin for such a pretty woman to follow him. Today I will let her know what a man is!"

"Hehehehe" the guard smiled obscenely and nodded.

Leping County was governed by Lord Ou for a while and was quite prosperous, with brothels in the city.

Zhang Ermaizi has lived there for a month. He has played all the games he should have played and it is boring. So today he wants to play some games.

Not long after, the royal guards, accompanied by four big soldiers, stormed into Mr. Chen's house aggressively. They ignored his desperate pleas and attempts to stop them, and forcibly dragged Mrs. Chen out of the house.

The neighbors opened their doors and saw this scene. Before they could say anything, they saw the guard suddenly draw out his long sword and said in a cold and tough tone: "What are you looking at? The general suspects that Chen Xiucai is secretly colluding with the court. We are just taking Chen Xiucai back to question her! If anyone dares to peek again, they will be regarded as accomplices and arrested!"

"What a joke! I'm the one who colluded with the court. Why are you arresting me? Why are you arresting my wife?" Chen Xiucai rushed out with disheveled hair, grabbed the hand of the personal guard and questioned him.

"Are you doubting our ability to do things?!"

The guard was furious and kicked Chen Xiucai to the ground, pointed the knife at him and shouted: "If you dare to stop me again, I will chop you to death!"

Chen Xiucai rushed forward without hesitation, but was kicked away by the guards again. He fell to the ground and was dizzy. There was no trace of the demeanor of a scholar left.

Mrs. Chen, who was caught by the soldiers, cried and was speechless as she watched her husband being humiliated.

"Take her away!" The guard waved his hand, and the soldier dragged Madam Chen away.

"Let my wife go!" Chen Xiucai struggled to get up, rushed out of the yard and looked up, only to see another army appearing on the street. Chen Xiucai's face turned pale and he felt that his life was hopeless.

However, in the next moment, the soldiers on the opposite side quickly raised their arms, aimed at the guards, and pulled the trigger without hesitation. In an instant, more than a dozen arrows flew out like arrows from a bow, instantly nailing the five defenseless people to the spot without even a chance to resist.

Chen Xiucai stared at the scene blankly and was unable to react for a moment.

"Husband!" Madam Chen broke free from her restraints and immediately ran to her husband.

At this time, a man walked out from the opposite army, looked at Chen Xiucai, bowed and said, "It's you, Mr. Chen. I'm You's Erlang. Do you remember me, Mr. Chen?" "You Erlang?"

Chen Xiucai looked up at the man in armor and suddenly remembered that this man was You Erlang.

Thinking back to the time when You Erlang was in the community school, he received a lot of teachings from him because he was naughty and mischievous.

Unfortunately, due to the financial difficulties of the county government, the community school was forced to close down. You Erlang and a group of students studied for only half a year before returning home.

Later, You Erlang joined the army and worked under Lord Ou. Last time, when his son was one month old, he invited me.

Looking back now, the students of the community school back then have now become centurions of the imperial court.

Thinking that the other party had just saved his wife, Chen Xiucai bowed gratefully and said, "Erlang, thank you for your help!"

You Erlang clasped his fists in return and said in a clear voice, "Mr. Chen, you are welcome. I am now the deputy commander of the Fifth Army Battalion of the Beijing Camp. My department is ordered by the Minister of Rites and the Governor of the Fifth Army Battalion, Lord Ou, to eliminate the rebels in the city. Mr. Chen, please come with me to appease the people in the city and ensure that no other unnecessary chaos and accidents will be caused."

"Okay, I'll go with you!" Chen Xiucai agreed decisively. He first comforted his wife and sent her home, and then followed You Erlang to comfort the neighbors.

This was also the reason why You Erlang came to find Chen Xiucai first after entering the city. In this county, although this scholar had only taught in the community school for half a year, he was the teacher of many people of their generation and had a certain reputation.

On the other side, Qin Wa Kuai led 800 soldiers and rushed straight to the county government office.

The main force of the rebels was transferred to Anqing by Prince Ning, and only a few hundred people remained here.

In addition to management, these people's job is to make money and try every possible way to get money out of the pockets of the gentry.

Thanks to their efforts, the county government has accumulated a lot of gold, silver and jewelry, just waiting for people from the palace to transport them away.

But no one expected that Ou Zanghua would dare to do this. He would split the whole into small pieces, bypass the front line and go straight to the rear.

When Zhang Ermaizi was still thinking about how to torture Chen Niangzi, the delicate flower, tonight, Qin Wakuai had already led the attack in.

"Why is it so noisy outside?" Zhang Ermaizi couldn't help but frowned slightly as he listened to the screams coming from outside. He secretly speculated in his heart that perhaps those unruly people had united to launch a counterattack.

When he thought of this possibility, his face turned pale instantly. Without saying a word, he immediately picked up the package he had prepared and planned to escape in the chaos.

He secretly swore in his heart that when he went to Anqing, he would report to the prince with exaggeration, and then bring back an army of 10,000 to flatten this place!
However, when he just opened the door and prepared to rush out, he was shocked to find that six longbows were pointed at him at the gate of the yard.

Zhang Ermaizi trembled all over, knowing that there was no way he could escape this dense rain of arrows. He could only helplessly put down the package in his hand, slowly kneeled on the ground, and kept shouting: "Mercy, mercy! I am willing to surrender, I am willing to surrender!"

The soldiers automatically made way for him, and Qin Wa Kuai walked in with a big stride, holding the hilt of his sword tightly in one hand. He looked directly at Zhang Ermaizi with a sharp gaze, and said in a cold tone: "You have been in Leping County for only a short month, but you have been able to make the people here boil with resentment. This is also an 'extraordinary' ability."

"General, please have mercy on me! I have no choice but to do this... I was completely coerced by King Ning to take this step!" Zhang Ermaizi pleaded anxiously, his face full of fear.

Qin Wa Kuai shook his head and immediately ordered his men to tie the man up.

Just at this time, You Erlang brought Chen Xiucai to report the situation. They happened to see Zhang Ermaizi being tied up and taken out.

Chen Xiucai was slightly stunned and asked, "Why does that person look a bit like Zhang Erlang?"

You Erlang turned his head and took a look, then said with a smile, "It really is him. That's not right. Why is he tied up?"

When Zhang Ermaizi heard the conversation between the two, he lowered his head even more.

A soldier replied: "My Lord, that man is the leader of the rebels who was left here by King Ning to guard the place. He is called Zhang Ermazi."

You Erlang frowned slightly. Then why did he want to snatch his master's wife?

Chen Xiucai, who was standing beside him, obviously realized something and was shaking with anger, cursing, "You have evil intentions."
