Water Margin Survival

Shan Tinggui deserved to be Lingzhou Tong, the place he chose for the hostage exchange was Yimapingchuan, and there was nothing to hide.In this way, Shi Wengong, who is good at making surprise attacks by surprise soldiers, has no good way. Who told the fourth son of Zengtou City to fall into the hands of Liang Shanjun?

It is said that the day has not yet arrived, and the Liangshan and Fangshan coalition forces have arrived at the scheduled location.The reason why Fangshan people and horses were there was because Wang Qing heard that Wang Lun was going to send troops to teach Zeng Toushi a lesson. After sweeping away his previous sickness, his face was flushed with joy, and his face was radiant. Hanging up the previous bad omen, and finally asked An Daoquan several times before confirming that this guy was excited.

At this time, Liu Min wanted to sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight, and act like a coward, pretending that she couldn't understand Wang Qing's lips.It was Li Zhu who made the decision, and assembled more than a thousand cavalry from a dozen hills under his command.It's a pity that when this group of people heard that they were going to negotiate with Zengtou City, there was no excitement in their eyes for the opportunity of revenge, but only infinite fear and cowardice.

Fortunately, Du Po, who was tentatively appointed as the temporary team leader, took this group of people to visit the nearly thousand heads brought back by Han Shizhong. They vomited enough of the acid water in their stomachs, and when they collapsed to the ground exhausted, the phobia in their hearts was relieved.

But what Du Po didn't expect was that this kind of experience would have sequelae.The specific manifestation is that since this night, another seed has been planted in the hearts of this group of elites in Wang Qing's army (after all, they are cavalry with horses): fear of beams, or fear of Korea.

It's a pity that Han Shizhong was not in the mood to be complacent. After returning from Jeju Island, he seldom lost his temper with his own people, so he yelled at Guo Sheng for half the night in the barracks.The reason was that during daytime battles, the gunners led by Guo Sheng underestimated the enemy, which directly led to the disconnection between the gunners and the archers. The Jurchens in Zengtou City directly smashed into the unprepared archers, causing unnecessary casualties of nearly a hundred people. brother.In the end, fortunately, the brothers in the Panshi Camp inserted reinforcements in time to block Jurchen's backup.Only then did no greater losses be caused.

This campaign killed 170 people in the pro-guard battalion. This was not the biggest sacrifice in previous battles, but it was the one with the most serious problems.Therefore, even if Han Shizhong was kind to Guo Sheng for saving his life, he still scolded him mercilessly this time, and he couldn't escape the end of a bloody sprinkler.

Does Wang Lun know nothing about all this?

No, on the contrary Wang Lun knew it clearly.He has a bottom line for the interaction behavior of the leaders of the cottage, that is, they are not allowed to fight in private (discussion is not included), after all, they are all big and three thick men, it is normal to be angry and bloody, as long as they don't cross the line.Wang Lun generally rarely intervenes.Guo Sheng did make a major mistake this time, and after returning to the mountain, he is going to enter the judicial department!More importantly, he needs such a long memory, which will be beneficial and harmless to him in the future.

Therefore, although Wang Lun got the news, he just asked Lu Fang to watch from the sidelines to prevent Han Shizhong from violently hurting others.It is said that he was violent enough today, and brought back all the heads of the enemy.The more than 1000 people who were rescued from Erlong Mountain were so frightened that their legs were weak. Many of these people were former imperial guards under the jurisdiction of Daming Mansion and Kaifeng Mansion. Hot.While being stunned on the spot, he couldn't help secretly rejoicing that the Liangshan Army had been extraordinarily merciful that day.

Han Shizhong knew very well in his heart, and he came to these Jurchens who kept saying that "they are not of my race, so their hearts must be different".Wang Lun would not offend him.Because this is not a civil war, but a story that has been repeated countless times in history: the story of "the farmer and the snake".

Han Shizhong guessed right.Wang Lun really didn't waste his time talking about this matter.But he warned Han Shizhong very seriously that killing the enemy on the battlefield is nothing more than a thing.After all, to be kind to the enemy is to be cruel to yourself.But if after the war, the system is established to massacre captives or other groups, it will turn an excellent fighter into a murderous maniac with no bottom line.The result of this is enough to destroy any iron army.

At this time, there was no movement in Zengtou City, and there were only more than [-] "two kings" coalition forces on the empty plain. Wang Lun ordered the battalions to line up, and at the same time ordered Du Po to take his cavalry to the second line.This was not because Wang Lun underestimated Du Po, but because he was worried about this group of improvised bandits.

After waiting for a while, there was still no movement in the direction of Zengtou City, but there was a commotion behind the team. When Wang Lun and Li Zhuzheng looked back, they suddenly saw Du Poo's general Wei He riding alone to report: "I don't know where to come from." There are as many as a thousand people coming out of nowhere, no matter how much they invite, they will not leave, they must meet Brother Wang Lun!"

"Don't be the trick of the bandits in Zengtou City, junior brother, don't move lightly, let Brother Yu deal with it!" Li Zhu said.

"It doesn't matter! Even if there are more than a thousand spies, if my army moves here, it will be crushed! At this time, there is no news from the scouts, so please ask the brother to sit in the army. If there is something to do, I will come back immediately!" Wang Lun waved his hands and said at the same time. Ting nodded, Jiao Ting understood, raised his hand, and immediately there were more than a hundred cavalrymen eager to try.

"Junior brother, what do you think is so important to people's hearts? Why do you value it so much?" Li Zhu asked puzzled.

"Brother, in another ten years, if you look back and look back, the answer will naturally be revealed!" Wang Lun chuckled, and glanced at Wu Yong, who immediately said, "Little brother and Mr. Li are right here, as soon as there is news, report back immediately." !"

"Forget it, let Junshi Wu and brother Shizhong stay here! I'll go with my junior brother, I see that short-sighted person dares to imitate Jing Ke's assassination of King Qin!" Li Zhu sneered.

Wang Lun smiled when he saw the talk, and said: "Then I will be in trouble!" After speaking, he said to Han Shizhong: "Hold the flag for me for the time being!"

"Brother, don't worry!" Han Shizhong cupped his hands.

How can Wang Lun be worried about Han Shizhong, a famous ZTE general?Although he is still far from being as experienced as he will be in the future, after the baptism of battles in the past few years, and the generous professors of veterans such as Wang Jin and Lin Chong, this famous general has already emerged.

Wang Lun crossed the phalanx of more than 1000 cavalry in the personal guard battalion, and came to the crowd blocked by the army hundreds of feet away. Du Po went up to meet him, briefly introduced the situation, Wang Lun nodded, and led everyone to the guard station. Off the line, Xia Ma identified himself to these unarmed civilians.

As soon as Wang Lun's words fell, the crowd was like a frying pan, and there was a burst of mourning, and the people knelt down and said, "My lord, you have to decide for us!"

Li Zhu had no temper to wait for the people to finish crying. After all, he was on the battlefield, and immediately shouted loudly: "The dog thieves in Zengtou City are coming, and there will be a fight right away. If you have something to say, send some representatives up. Don't waste the time of the king leader!"

Li Zhu is a master of both internal and external cultivation, what he said was full of air, and made the eardrums of these more than a thousand people twitch, and they could hear clearly.The crowd turned from grief to joy, and hurriedly recommended a few old men to come forward. Wang Lun invited these five or seven people, and said: "I am Wang Lun of Liangshan, if you have anything to do, please tell me!"

"Unless it is absolutely necessary, we dare not bother the king!" One of the oldest elders among them said sadly: "My lord, Zengtou City is my tyrant in Lingzhou, and the lord must not make peace with them! Otherwise, once you leave, we will live a life of being oppressed by them again!"

After the old man finished speaking, another person continued: "We are all villagers in the nearby village, but because we have lived a long time, everyone recommends us to speak out! Your Majesty, Zengtou City is not a good person. Don't let them deceive you!"

"How did they bully you? Can you be more specific?" Wang Lun asked.

"They have been here for more than a hundred years since the time of Taizu Taizong. In the past few decades, it was considered a rule. Knowing that people are in a foreign land, they are restrained and do not disturb the place. But later, they lived here for a long time. They said they raised horses for me in the Song Dynasty, but they often did not obey the rules. In the beginning, they were just horses trampling fertile fields. Our ancestors dared to We went up to reason with them, but later on, we didn’t even dare to approach Zengtou City within a radius of tens of miles!” said an old man with gray hair.

"Their horses run wherever they go, no matter whether they are in the fields of the common people or in the villages. They play blindly. Some villagers can't see them. If they say a few words to them, they raise their hands and beat them. After the beating, they will demonstrate. At midnight The villagers are not allowed to fight the fire. Or they will ride their horses in the middle of the night, howling ghosts and wolves, and not letting people sleep! If someone is running into a wedding or a wedding, if they run into it, it will be over. Molesting the bride, intimidating the groom, I don’t know how many people in my hometown are mad at these unruly fans! Your Majesty, you can’t even imagine how we got through this life!” An old man was crying, his eyes and nose were full of saliva , and didn't care to wipe it, but couldn't stop sobbing, obviously extremely sad.

"You are useless! There are so many people, why don't you unite and call them bullying?" Li Zhu couldn't listen anymore, and said angrily.

"Your Majesty, it's not like we haven't tried what you said before! But they drafted troops, hundreds of people at first, and thousands of people later, in groups, and relying on good horses. How can our crops be their opponents? A few days ago, there was a team of Tian Hu, a thief from the east of the river, and Wang Qing from the west of Beijing, who were heading for Zengtou City. They robbed us of food, and we accepted it. This harm! Who would have thought that even such a villain would be defeated by Zeng Toushi, what do you tell us common people to do?" cried the sobbing old man.

Li Zhu and Du Po heard the words, their faces were flushed, and they couldn't help but look at each other in shame. Li Zhu coughed dryly and said, "Then you wait for the people...why don't you ask the government for help?"

"These guys raise horses for the government, and they have a lot of money to honor them. The whole government wears the same trousers as them. How can they care about us little people?" :

"We are the citizens of the Great Song Dynasty, and they are just outsiders. Why does the court of the Great Song Dynasty favor outsiders? We can't figure it out, and our hearts are bitter!" (To be continued...)
