145 Festival Wagang(1/2)
.
When the Chinese New Year arrived, Dongdu was full of joy and joy. There was no sign of too many wars. Although wars were everywhere this year, hundreds of countries still came to congratulate him. The emperor wanted to set up a banquet for hundreds of lanes in Dongdu to invite envoys from all over the world who were worshipping.
The Turks, Silla, Marcelo, Kucha, Persia, Ryukyu, Shule, Khotan and other countries, both far and near, large and small, all went to the Eastern Capital to send envoys to pay tribute. For a moment, the people were busy again, just because the emperor said that they would see the majesty of a great country.
The busy people are not only the people, but also the court officials, who are afraid that the emperor will not be satisfied with their careers. Of course, in addition to the Dongdu, there are also generals who are busy and hard-working, such as Zhang Xutuo, and the soldiers who are escorting the baggage are like Li Jing, and the bandits who are trying their best to resist Zhang Xutuo's encirclement and suppression are like Lu Mingyue!
Li Jing had already passed Jindi Pass and headed straight for Dongjun. After arriving in Dongjun, the journey was only one-third. He had to pass Wuyang and Jibei to reach Qijun. The soldiers traveled day and night, which was very hard. In addition, the New Year was coming, and the soldiers could not reunite with their relatives at home, but had to travel far away to Qijun. He could not help but complain. However, when he saw Li Jing as an escort leader, he was not angry and was invincible and did everything himself. In his admiration, he knew that the suppression of bandits was not distinguished from the New Year or not, so he couldn't say anything. He just hoped to arrive in Qijun early and get in the business.
Everyone walked downstream along the south bank of the Yellow River, and drove along the way. The horses whizzed, the snowflakes were pouring, and the cold wind was sobbing. They looked over and felt that the white area was endless, as if there was no end, and their hearts were as confused as the white area they saw.
Li Jing was on the horse. A was still calm, his face was as calm as ever. He was not slow in leading the team, but he never rushed to move. Cheng Yaojin didn't know anything, but he only complained about the slow walking of the team. Li Jing was the same as Xiao Buyi's attitude towards Cheng Yaojin, and he rarely paid attention to such a rough man. He did not make useless disputes. This march was assigned by the Ministry of War. Of course, the biggest one. Qin Shubao secretly admired Li Jing's method of marching. He knew that Li Jing was always a general and was quite familiar with the method of marching. This long journey was similar to marching, itinerary, route, dispatch, and soldiers' ability to withstand the generals. Li Jing was taciturn. However, every move was legal, and he was a bit useless when he came to command and escort.
There was a soldier beside Li Jing, with a brown face, an iron helmet, and a big bearded man looked more powerful than Cheng Yaojin, but his eyes were even smart. He kept following Li Jing. When he saw that there was no one on the left and right, he whispered: "What a big snow. What a beautiful snow, Li Jing, how long has it been since we went together?"
Although the man's voice was low, he felt excited in his tone. When he smiled, he showed his teeth. Of course, this person was dressed in Hongfu women. She said that when Li Jing went on a trip, she would follow him because it was always a taboo to bring women in a marching manner, so she simply dressed as a man. She was very experienced and pretended to be a soldier and followed Li Jing, but no one noticed it.
Li Jing's face was still, but he looked into the distance and said, "From Jindi Pass to Dongjun, there are always thieves and bandits in the Wagang army, so we must act carefully."
Hongfu Nu sneered, "You have been a lord for a few years, and your courage has become smaller? What kind of talented people in Wagang are you? You are just a mob."
Li Jing's face was nothing special, just said, "It doesn't matter how brave you are, just don't lose your life. It doesn't matter if you lose your life. It doesn't matter if you disappoint your third brother, that's not my wish. He asked for this opportunity for me. If I can't accomplish anything, Dongdu wouldn't have to go back."
Hongfu Nu was slightly stunned and asked, "Did you tell me the third brother?"
"Why do he need to tell me?" Li Jing stared into the distance, "This trip is a hard work for others, but for me, Li Jing, it is an opportunity. Wei Wensheng, the Minister of War, and I have always been disagreeable, I am afraid that I will make contributions. Over the years, I have only made me a member of the army and refused to use it. This time I gave me the opportunity for nothing, it goes without saying that only the third brother can fight for me. The third brother is active in mind, kind-hearted in his heart, and has a lot of communication skills. But he has not long since arrived in the east, so he would never know such an opportunity. Apart from him, there is only one person in the east who cares about me. I think you must have told him?"
"Everyone says that there is no better father than father, but I think there is no better husband than wife," Hongfunn's lips smiled bitterly, "Li Jing, you are right. I'm going to give you this opportunity, and I'll lose your face."
Li Jing was silent for a long time and finally said, "Hongfu, thank you. I know that in this world, you are the only one who cares about me the most..."
Hongfu Nu bit her lips, looked up at the sky, her nose twitched twice, and she said no more.
"I have been waiting for this opportunity for too long," Li Jing suddenly sighed, "Without you, without my third brother, I might have to die of old age in Dongdu. But I knew that after Chai Shao lost to the third brother in the martial arts competition in Wude Hall, I was always dissatisfied. Of course, they also knew that it was an opportunity. Li Xuanba and Wei Wensheng, the Minister of War, have always had friendships. It was strange that he did not ask for this opportunity for Chai Shao. The third brother offended Chai Shao, and because I snatched him another opportunity, I suppressed him twice. I was afraid that the old ghost Li Yuan would be dissatisfied. The third brother was not in the temple, but it was always bad to offend Li Yuan for me."
When he mentioned Li Yuan, he was full of disdain. Hongfu smiled and said, "Li Yuan dared not be troublesome now. I heard that he was drunk and scrambled for singing girls, and was attracted by someone to laugh at him."
Li Jing said lightly: "Li Yuan is a very scheming person. Do you think he is really a drunkard? He knows that the emperor is very suspicious, but he is afraid that the emperor will be suspicious. He has been drinking and entertaining sex all day long, for fear of causing a murder."
Hongfu sighed softly, "Li Jing is still the Li Jing of the past, he does not show his emotions, and is wise and stupid. Even if I provoke the test, I will never lose my sense of duty, but Hongfu is no longer the Hongfu of the past."
Li Jing finally turned his head and smiled at the corner of his mouth, "Although Hongfu has changed, in Li Jing's eyes, it will always be the Hongfu in the past."
Hongfu's face was sallow with makeup, and there was no sign of joy, but his eyes showed joy, and he said softly: "With your words, I suddenly felt that these ten years were nothing."
The two were silent in the past and allowed the horse to move forward. Forget it for a while
Where is. After a long time, Hongfu Nu suddenly said, "I heard that Xu Shiji had just come to the Wagang Army and moved to the canal transportation. Now it has grown a lot of power."
Li Jing nodded without waiting for the answer, and had already looked up, a spy rushed back quickly and said anxiously: "Mr. Li. There are nearly a thousand bandits ahead. We are heading here at this moment."
When Qin Shubao Cheng Yaojin saw the spy running over, he was already urging his horse to come. He was shocked when he heard this and asked in unison: "Who is it?" Although the two of them had experienced many battles, their current responsibilities were to deliver materials. There were only 200 soldiers here to escort the land. If the bandits were killed, it would be obviously a disaster.
"It seems to be a team of Wagangland." The spy said anxiously: "Sir, please decide quickly. The bandits will be about a cup of tea."
Li Jing pondered for a moment, and Cheng Yaojin had already shouted: "The soldiers come to block the enemy, and the water comes to cover the earth. I am afraid that he will be a bird. Lord Li, I am willing to ask the soldiers to resist the enemy."
While he was making generous speeches, Li Jing had already ordered the team to become the front team, but Cheng Yaojin was puzzled. "Mr. Li. What are you doing?"
Li Jing bowed and said, "General Cheng, my duty is to guard the baggage, food, grass and horses, but not to resist the bandit army. I also asked Lord Cheng to resist the enemy first and buy some time for us to dodge."
"Well," Cheng Yaojin hesitated, "I wonder how many soldiers Lord Li is going to let me lead to fight the enemy?"
"That's it," Li Jing hesitated: "I heard that General Cheng is invincible for a long time. You also know that these soldiers are used to protect food and grass..."
Cheng Yaojin laughed anxiously and said, "Are you saying that I will resist nearly a thousand bandits alone?"
"General Cheng is really smart." Li Jing said relievedly: "I am just thinking that way."
Cheng Yaojin said angrily: "Do you think I, Lao Cheng, dare not?"
Li Jing bowed and said, "Since that's the case, General Cheng is here." As soon as he finished speaking, he ordered the team to retreat. Seeing this, Qin Shubao lowered his voice and said, "Yaojin, you must be careful."
Cheng Yaojin said stunned: "Shubao, do you want to abandon me too?"
"It's not that I abandon you, but that I want to follow the team." Qin Shubao smiled, "The overall situation is the most important thing, Yao Jin, follow it."
Cheng Yaojin snorted coldly, "I'm here with a horse and a single axe to retreat. I think that Li Jing dares to be arrogant when he sees me in the future, as if he owes him eight hundred cents and refuses to pay it back?"
Qin Shubao shook his head and said, "Then be careful." He rode his horse and followed Li Jing closely, and he was amused. Qin Shubao and Cheng Yaojin had been together for several years, and knew that Cheng Yaojin seemed reckless, although he had bad breath, he was very smooth. He would most likely withdraw when the opportunity was wrong, but it was not surprising that there were too many.
Cheng Yaojin just looked at Li Jing's back and sneered. The place was flat and there was no danger to guard. The nearest county town was half a day away. The other party came in a fierce manner. Following the footprints, where can you hide? It is said that Li Jing is always talented, but now it is normal. He might as well understand the principle of crossing the river and hitting the river. If he gave him two hundred soldiers and the enemy's head-on attack, why should he run away in panic?
He followed Zhang Xutuo to attack the bandits for many years, but he didn't know the nature of the bandits. Although there were many bandits, they were not equipped with strong equipment. They claimed to have a thousand people. I am afraid that if they really fought, they would be only the bravery of more than a hundred people. When he and Zhang Xutuo attacked the bandits, they knew that except for the thief heads and guards, the rest were like refugees.
Standing in the snow with a long-handled axe in his hand, Cheng Yaojin looked ahead, and a tragic feeling arose in his heart. He wanted Li Jing to know what a real general is!
It took not long to take long, the white snow in front of him had already appeared in a black area, coming like an ant, noisy and noisy. However, the dozens of riders looked quite powerful, and the ones following him were not as good as Cheng Yaojin expected, all of them were straw sandals and clothes, with hungry faces, some had long swords in their hands, and some had rust on them, and some were chopping off thicker branches. Tie an iron head on it, which was considered a long spear. As for the things like bows and arrows, I'm sorry, it was a luxury guy, and few people used it. As for horses, it was already a big scene and a big formation!
Cheng Yaojin shook his head secretly, but did not take this outfit as a stranger. He only saw too many people, and most of the bandits would rob them. If they were too rich, it would be better to go home and be a master. The dozens of riders came in front of him quickly, and they instantly floated in front of Cheng Yaojin like clouds. When he saw Cheng Yaojin standing alone with a horse, he couldn't help but look at each other.
Although they were not well-equipped and did not have many horses, they were defeated by many people and came over with great momentum. They thought that the gods blocked the gods and the demons blocked the demons. This time, the spy said that officers and soldiers were escorting the official horses over, and they thought that they rushed back to have supper after making a vote. But they thought that there was still someone standing on the road without knowing their lives.
"Brother Shan, look." A pointed monkey beside him reached out and pointed at the back of Cheng Yaojin. "The fat sheep was there. She didn't go far."
Brother Shan, whose face is like a heavy date, has a wide forehead, is arrogant, and has a straight hand, looks like a horse spear. He looks down at Cheng Yaojin with a cold eyes, holds the spear and waves it, "Get out!"
"Get out of here, grandma!" Cheng Yaojin held the axe in one hand. Hearing the other party's insult, he slammed the stirrups with his legs and rushed up.
In battlefield battles, horse spears are now mostly used, and horse spears can be regarded as an improved version of the spear. Because both sides of the battle have more armor, the spears are far less harmful than horse spears. However, horse spears are expensive and can basically be used by generals. Of course, Brother Dan’s horse spears are not something that can be made by the villages. Instead, they are snatched from the hands of officers, soldiers and generals.
Cheng Yaojin was originally good at using horse spear. His family was rich and robbed by thieves and had to form a Boxer to protect his home. Later, he followed Zhang Xutuo to fight in the east and west. It was so happy. Although others were reckless, their knowledge was not bad at all. It can be seen from using horse spear, but his skills were not bad. Later, he felt that he was extremely unhappy with the horse spear, so he switched to the battle axe. Now he urged his horse forward and shouted loudly. The long axe slashed down with the horse's stance, and he was about to cut Brother Dan in half.
Brother Dan's pupils shrank rapidly, and he also roared, neither dodging nor dodging, and was holding his spear, blocking Cheng Yaojindi's axe. With a strong impact, Cheng Yaojindi's axe bounced high
The horse's lance is slightly bent, but the horse cannot hold back the force. With a long neigh, he retreats backwards.
Although Cheng Yaojin's axe was swept open, it was a man who borrowed the horse's power. The axe borrowed the force, pushed it with one hand and used the force to resolve the bounce force. The long axe was suddenly cut horizontally. Brother Shan was shocked, knowing that this person was not only powerful, but also definitely a martial arts master. Otherwise, how could he lift the weight easily if he was used by a big long axe? Knowing that this person could not be solved in just one move or two moves. Brother Shan bowed on the horse's back and the horse was horizontal on his back. He had already sealed Cheng Yaojin's axe, pushed the tail rod of the horse's spear, and stabbed it with a "huh" sound, which was fast and fierce. Cheng Yaojin was also shocked in his heart. This man's martial arts was very powerful. He took back the long axe in time and knocked the horse's spear flying.
Brother Shan was about to step forward when he saw everyone, and waved his horse spear and said, "A bunch of idiots, go and top dress up sheep, just leave five or six here."
Everyone woke up and separated like a tide and chased forward. Although Cheng Yaojin was brave, he was entangled by Brother Shan and could not intercept him. He couldn't help but be angry, "No courage, if you are a real hero, defeat me, Cheng and then chase others."
Brother Shan felt a little calm when he saw his subordinates chasing him. He felt that it was not a problem to deal with a hundred officers and soldiers with a thousand people. He just entangled Cheng Yaojin and laughed: "No courage, if you are really a hero, let me snatch the official horse first and then fight."
"Your grandma, do you think I will hit your provocation?" Cheng Yaojin slashed the axe.
Brother Shan was not in a hurry to attack, but just held it with a spear and laughed: "Your grandpa, then do you think I will hit you?"
More than a dozen people had already come up with a hook-tick lasso. Cheng Yaojin was secretly shocked, knowing that they had experience with horse generals and were trapped and unable to use it. If they were tortured and injured the horse, it would be a big bad.
Before those people approached, Cheng Yaojin shouted loudly, swung the battle axe and chopped down at Brother Shan like a storm. Brother Shan was secretly frightened and blocked the enemy with a spear. He used his skill to remove his strength, but the person couldn't help but retreat.
After Cheng Yaojin slashed several axes, he suddenly turned his horse's head and swung the axe toward a bandit. The man was holding a hook and preparing to mix Cheng Yaojin's horse's legs. Unexpectedly, Cheng Yaojin's man had a long axe, and could not dodge, and screamed in anger. He had already cut his head with an axe.
A big head flew into the sky, carrying a bunch of blood mist. When the bandits saw his fierceness and fierceness, they all took a few steps back. Cheng Yaojin sneered and urged the horse to come out of the air, and actually followed the bandits.
Brother Dan looked furious. He didn't expect that this old man was brave and resourceful, and he couldn't stop him. With a wave of his horse spear, he followed Cheng Yaojindi and chased him reluctantly.
Cheng Yaojin urged the horse to go quickly. Not long after, he had already chased the rear of the bandits. Nearly a thousand bandits had only dozens of horses, and most of them had to run away on two legs. Naturally, they could not run away. Cheng Yaojin shouted angrily, raised his axe and killed another person. Several people saw that they were not good at seeing this, but the bandits in front cheered loudly, only to see the baggage everywhere. One cart in the east and one cart in the west, the officers and soldiers had abandoned the baggage from afar and fled. Everyone had long seen this kind of battle and knew it was common. Nowadays, officers and soldiers do not fight tough battles. They rely on their large numbers of people and more than a thousand people came out, and many officers and soldiers fled in a glance. When Cheng Yaojin saw Li Jing abandoning the baggage, he couldn't help but curse: "Li Jing, are you a man?"
The bandits did not pursue the officers and soldiers. The formation had long been chaotic. Some threw the spears and swords in their hands into the cart. They could not wait to push food, grass and equipment, and some even wanted to untickle the baggage cart and could not wait to change their armor.
Brother Dan also quickly chased after him, glanced at him, suddenly his face changed drastically, and he shouted loudly: "Jia Xiong, Zhai Hong. Organize the team."
He was screaming, but the sharp-mouthed man laughed and said, "Brother Shan, you're going to make a fuck. You should deal with this reckless man quickly, let's go back first."
Before he finished speaking, his face changed drastically. He felt the ground tremble and turned his head to look over. He found that the two teams of cavalry rushed towards him in a horn. The momentum was unstoppable!
Brother Dan was shocked and angry. He knew that the officers and soldiers had actually used the trick of seducing the enemy, so he probably abandoned the baggage. It was to make his subordinates confused. Although this move was simple, it was the best to attack the heart. These baggages were expensive, and the people in the mountain village were all mud-legged. How could they not grab them when they saw it?
Two teams of cavalry arrived in an instant, and the two leaders gave orders, and the officers and soldiers pulled their bows and shot arrows, as if it were raining.
The bandits were already panicked when they saw the other party's voice. When they saw the arrows flying, they cried and shouted at their parents, and fled continuously. Some were shot to death by arrows, and some were shot to death. They didn't care about the pain, but they just ran around like headless flies. The panic and fear quickly spread. Brother Shan stood behind and tried his best to stop the team's retreat, but how could he be? Under the impact of the subordinates, he also retreated repeatedly. The sharp-mouthed monkey cheeks had been shot by an arrow, and grinned in pain: "Brother Shan, the wind is tight!"
"A group of idiots know that greed for money will not accomplish great things." Brother Shan sighed to the sky. The sharp-mouthed man with monkey cheeks was full of shame, and he was afraid that the officers and soldiers would rob and kill him, so he would have been retreating with the bandits.
Brother Shan was behind the palace. When Li Jing saw the bandits running for life, he waved the iron spear in his hand, and the officers and soldiers stopped abruptly and stopped shooting arrows. His command discipline was clear. In this regard, he was much better than the bandits.
Brother Shan admired Li Jing's command and knew that this person was not an incompetent person. He couldn't stop the horse and said loudly: "Wangang Shan Xiongxin, Jia Xiong, Zhai Hong are here, I don't know the name of the general. Shan Xiongxin remembers the defeat today, and only asks to find this face again the next day."
"Li Jing, the Minister of State, is here." Li Jing remained silent, "It turned out to be General Dan, who was the general who led the army in Wagang. He was not welcomed. Please forgive me. If you want to go far, I will send you away."
When Shan Xiongxin heard the word Li Jing, his face was solemn and said loudly: "It is said that Li Jing of Kyoto has millions of soldiers in his heart. He doesn't go out to know the major affairs of the world. Now when he sees him, he is well-known. Shan has recorded it."
After he finished speaking, he waved his horse's spear and rode his horse slowly, without panic. Cheng Yaojin rushed over and looked up and down at Li Jing and said, "General Li, you are really a plan, I, Cheng, are you just today.
It turns out that there are not only bandits, but also me, Lao Cheng. Since you didn’t tell me earlier, Lao Cheng almost lost his life?"
"Oh? You ask yourself to stop the enemy, but it's not my subordinates. How dare I control it? General Cheng just blocked thousands of people and was unable to defeat them. It's also hard for him." Li Jing was not complacent, nor was he cold, and ordered his subordinates to reorganize the baggage early.
Cheng Yaojin blushed when he heard that the crowd was invincible, but asked: "General Li, why don't we chase after them by taking advantage of the victory and kill them without leaving any armor?"
Li Jing glanced at him, "Don't chase the poor bandits, beware of their intimidation. Besides, our responsibilities are left to others to protect food, grass, horses, and bandit suppression."
Cheng Yaojin curled his lips and wanted to say something, but Qin Shubao came over to salute and said, "The general predicted the enemy to be in a state of deity and used his troops to achieve the skills. This time, only a hundred soldiers were used, and a thousand enemy soldiers who were killed without losing one person were defeated. Shubao was so impressed that he was overwhelmed."
"Just a bunch of mobs." Although Li Jing won, his face felt a little lonely. "It's a pity that he can't become famous on the battlefield like General Zhang." Qin Shubao was slightly stunned. He knew that he was not appreciated by talent, so he wanted to comfort him, but he didn't know where to start.
Li Jing waved his gun and said, "Let's go, let them waste some time, don't miss the trip." The officers and soldiers were well-trained and sorted out the baggage early, and the team drove for several miles. There were already forests in front of them, covered with snow, and the branches were covered with snow. There was a path in the middle, which was quite spacious, enough for marching.
Cheng Yaojin wanted to urge the horse to move forward, but Li Jing stopped the team. A few shocked birds flew up in the woods not far away, and Li Jing frowned and said nothing.
"General Li, why don't you leave?" Cheng Yaojin turned around and asked. Qin Shubao also looked at the shocked bird and said, "The birds in the forest are frightened. Most of the people are lying here."
To be continued...
