Chapter 1008 Fifth First Battle One
On an official road in Nansidao, there were about ten thousand soldiers marching slowly. The soldiers were all wearing the uniforms of the Yellow Shirt Army. Only a few of them were still wearing ordinary people's clothes. They were all locals.
yellow.
There were only a few cavalry among the more than 10,000 people, and the rest were infantry. They had all kinds of things in their hands, including long spears, short knives, bows, arrows, spears, and some farm tools such as rakes.
The development speed of the Yellow Shirt Army is too fast, with new recruits joining the army almost every day. It is not possible to equip all soldiers with sophisticated ordnance at the same time. Only the most elite troops can be equipped with customized weapons.
The general on horseback was tall and thick, with a big belly and a scar on his cheek. A huge machete hung on his waist, which was his handy weapon.
Despite his lazy appearance, he is also known as a ruthless person among the Yellow Shirt Army. No one knows his real name, but everyone calls him Liu Sandao.
Previously, Liu Sandao was just a bandit leader who was king of the mountain. He only had a hundred or so brothers who could support him to death. Because of his amazing arm strength, the officers and soldiers who went to encircle and suppress him could not do anything to him. Often, even those officers could not withstand him.
Sandao, over time the name Liu Sandao spread.
In other words, no one has been able to withstand the fourth sword in Liu Sandao's hands.
After joining the Yellow Shirt Army, he was like a fish in water. He fought without risking his life. He was highly appreciated by Chen Tiansheng, and his official position was steadily rising. No, in less than a year, he had become a general in charge of 10,000 troops.
, this is completely different from the previous bandit leader.
A figure who seemed to be a deputy general laughed in front of Liu Sandao and said: "Boss, we have something good to gain this time, right? We must grab a big one. Brothers, their hands are itching these days."
"
The Yellow Shirt Army does not have its own tax system and can only obtain military supplies through seizure. This is also a major shortcoming of Chen Tiansheng now.
Liu Sandao said carelessly: "Your Majesty received a report that an army grain transport team will pass through Longyuan Mountain today. I heard that there are a hundred trucks. We came out this time to grab these grains and grass.
of."
"Good boy, one hundred cars?"
The lieutenant general almost laughed out loud: "Well, aren't we getting rich? There just isn't much food and grass in the army. Let's grab it and let our brothers eat it ourselves."
"Hehe, just wait and see, let's take action. If we want to rob, let's grab a big one." Liu Sandao's face was filled with a sinister smile.
The soldiers walked slowly along the official road. There were no even the most basic precautions on both sides of the road. Because the officers and soldiers had been passively beaten for nearly half a year, these yellow-shirted soldiers had long ignored the officers and soldiers.
Inside.
Not to mention that there were no large army guards on both sides, and even the sentries were not dispatched. No one took this sneak attack seriously.
After a while, the army marched into the mountain road of Longyuan Mountain. Before going far, they ran into a convoy transporting grain and grass.
"Brothers, don't hold back, give me all your drinks. Drink the popular ones and the spicy ones. I can't treat you badly!" Liu Sandao, with excited eyes, waved and shouted.
Although he has become a regular member of the Yellow Shirt Army, Liu Sandao still has the aura of a bandit.
"Kill, kill!"
The yellow-shirted soldiers swarmed up, and the mountain road was not very wide. Even several carriages could not walk side by side. The mountain was suddenly crowded with yellow-shirted soldiers, and they looked majestic.
The battles between the Yellow Shirt Army and the official army have always been unstructured. Anyway, they just rush in and defeat the official army by relying on their superior strength. This time is no exception.
Sure enough, the army's grain transport team, which numbered only 2,000 people, was suddenly frightened and retreated with almost no resistance.
The packed grain trucks lined up in a long queue were just left in the valley.
The battle went smoothly beyond Liu Sandao's imagination. He walked to the grain truck with a big smile, patted the bulging grain bags on it and said with a smile:
"These officers and soldiers are really useless. They ran away after just a scare. I want to see blood."
"Hey, the boss is so brave. How dare those officers and soldiers touch the boss's brows?" the deputy general said with a flattering smile.
He is Liu Sandao's confidant who has been with him since he was a bandit. Although he has no shit skills, he is a top-notch flatterer, so Liu Sandao likes him and will always take him with him whenever he is promoted.
"The old rule is that five of the grain trucks will be left behind to transport them to our own camp, and the rest will be handed over to King Huai. Let the brothers keep their mouths shut, and be careful if you talk nonsense." Liu Sandao
He said with a sinister smile.
"Don't worry, brother, leave it all to me!"
Every time he robbed supplies from the army, Liu Sandao would keep some privately and then sell them for heavy amounts of gold.
In fact, Chen Tiansheng was well aware of his little tricks, but he had no plans to deal with him. After all, he had to employ people, so it didn't matter if he gave him some rewards, as long as they were not excessive.
If the water is clear, there will be no fish. Chen Tiansheng still understands this truth.
"Plop~"
The grain truck next to it suddenly fell over, and all the grain bags on it fell to the ground. Some of the linen bags were torn.
"Damn it, can't you be more careful? It's all money! There's also your food expenses." Liu Sandao cursed several times.
But before he finished cursing, his eyes froze. What leaked out of the grain bag was not grain at all, but sand and dirt.
"how so!"
Liu Sandao jumped off his horse in an instant, and with a big knife he pierced the grain bags one by one.
"Pfft!"
"Stab~"
That's right, there wasn't a single cart of food, it was all sand and gravel. No wonder these soldiers thought the cart was heavy.
"Brother, it seems something is not right." The deputy general muttered in confusion.
"Whoosh whoosh!"
"Kill!"
Just as Liu Sandao was thinking about what was going on, deafening shouts of killing suddenly rang out from both sides of the mountain road, and arrows as dense as locusts rained down on the yellow-shirted soldiers.
Liu Sandao's face turned pale. He could clearly see the figures of officers and soldiers on both sides of the mountain road, and the flags were waving so much that he felt dizzy.
"Damn it, I fell into a trap, this is bait! Liang Jun's target is us!"
Liu Sandao, who quickly came to his senses, cursed angrily, drew his sword and roared: "Meet the enemy, meet the enemy!"
"General, we are ambushed, what should we do?"
The deputy general who followed him was even more timid, and when he saw so many Liang soldiers, he panicked and asked in a tearful tone.
"Pah! Why are you crying? He's not dead yet!"
Liu Sandao, who was upset and angry, slapped the deputy general on the face, causing the deputy general to be stunned for a moment.
"Woo~"
The deputy general sobbed and stopped crying, but the panic in his eyes still lingered for a long time.
After Liu Sandao thought for a moment, he roared: "Withdraw the troops and withdraw from Longyuan Mountain!"
Chapter completed!
