Chapter 31 Lost

"Do you think we can defeat the army?" Liu Heng asked back.

"Isn't this a fact?" Chen Xunping spread his hands and said, "During the day, we, several hundred refugee recruits plus 60 archers, defeated more than a thousand official troops with the spear phalanx you taught us."

Liu Heng smiled helplessly and said: "Second brother, could it be that you really didn't notice that the archers of the army were appearing from the beginning to the end, and even the personal servants were hiding behind the guardsmen."

Chen Xunping frowned and thought for a moment, then said: "When you say this, it seems like it is really the case. I have never seen any archers from the army."

Liu Heng continued: "Second brother, think about it. The archers of the army and the servants of the army attack our spear phalanx. What do you think the result will be?"

"Hiss!" Chen Xunping took a sharp breath and said, "Our spearmen are all civilians, and none of them can wear armor. They have no defense at all against the archers. The time to form an army is short, and a round of arrows rains down.

Someone will definitely run away in the past, and then the entire phalanx of spears will be scattered for their lives."

Liu Heng said with a smile: "If I guess correctly, all the archers of the official army were used to besiege Shi Yunhu and the others. On the surface, they are the main force, so we are lucky to win this battle. I really have to listen."

If Zhao Yutu says it, our fate will be no worse than Shi Yunhu's."

"This damn Zhao Yutu is asking our brother to die." Chen Xunping, who had figured it out, said angrily, "No, I will chop off his head now. If he wants to harm our brother, he must be killed."

Seeing Chen Xunping standing up with an anger, Liu Heng next to him grabbed his wrist and pulled him back.

"Second brother, don't be impulsive. I think Zhao Yutu may not want us to die."

Chen Xunping stood without moving, but did not sit down either, and asked: "How do you know he didn't deliberately let us die? Don't forget, he is Shi Yunhu's."

"Sit down and talk, sit down first and then talk." Liu Hengqiang pulled Chen Xunping to sit down, "Zhao Yutu is also a bandit, and he is also a bandit leader. It will not do him any good if we are suppressed by the government army. On the contrary, he will be wanted by the government."

"But he asked us to go to that Datong East Road just to let us die. If we don't kill such a person, what else can we do with him?" Chen Xunping grabbed a dry branch and threw it into the fire.

Liu Heng said with a smile: "I don't think he meant to let us die. Most likely, he was obsessed with his official position."

"What do you mean?" Chen Xunping frowned.

Liu Heng said with a smile: "Zhao Yutu is a man of some talent and learning, so he saw the advantages of occupying the important road of Datong East Road and temporarily forgot about the dangers on the road to Daliang Mountain. After ten years of hard study, he only

When naming Yi Chao, the vast majority of scholars studied to become officials. Zhao Yutu also had the same intention. After all, only a few of the thousands of scholars have the opportunity to become officials."

The flames from the fire burned the branches Chen Xunping threw in, and the flames jumped up to an inch high.

Chen Xunping hummed: "Students are not good people. They are full of twists and turns. I think Shi Yunhu was deceived by him."

Liu Heng threw a few pieces of firewood into the fire, and the flames were suppressed. He picked up a wooden stick and picked it twice to let the firewood burn.

Putting down the wooden stick to stir up the fire, Liu Heng said, "At first I thought Shi Yunhu would attack us on our way westward, but he didn't attack us along the way. This has always puzzled me. After listening to Zhao Yutu's words today

Only then did I realize that Shi Yunhu was also obsessed with being an official and temporarily forgot to deal with us."

"Don't talk about Shi Yunhu, I also want to be an official. If you hadn't always disagreed, I would have taken people to Datong East Road." When he said this, Chen Xunping looked scared.

Liu Heng smiled and said: "Okay, second brother, this matter is over. Let's not mention it. Don't touch Zhao Yutu either. I still have use for this person."

"What good can he be? He's full of bad ideas, and it will be a disaster if you keep him."

Liu Heng smiled, stood up, patted the dirt on his body, and said, "Let's go and take a look around the camp. Nothing can happen at this time."

Chen Xunping grabbed some firewood and threw a few pieces into the fire, then left with Liu Heng to inspect the camp.

After a day's journey, even the refugees who had not participated in the battle were very tired, and the sound of snoring could be heard in the camp.

Except for a few patrol teams, no one was out and about around the camp.

"I've met the great master."

A patrolling team hurriedly stopped after seeing Liu Heng and Chen Xunping on patrol.

Liu Heng asked: "Is there anything unusual?"

"Report to the boss, everything is normal."

"Keep patrolling!"

After questioning this patrol team, Liu Heng and Chen Xunping went to several other teams to ask questions one by one. After confirming that there were no problems, they returned with Chen Xunping.

On the way back, Chen Xunping said: "The army has just lost a battle during the day, there is no danger, and the brothers have been exhausted after a long day's journey. Just arrange for two people to keep an eye on it as I said, or let the others

Brother, go back and rest."

Liu Heng shook his head and said: "Second brother, you and I are both from the border army. You and I know best what is going on in the camp every day. If there is no one patrolling, if someone attacks the camp, a few dozen people can be enough to defeat thousands of people."

There was a roar in the camp, you and I have never seen such a thing."

Chen Xunping said nonchalantly: "The situation you are talking about is a confrontation between two armies. We are not really an army now. We are just a group of bandits running around. There is no need to be so careful."

Liu Heng became serious and said: "Everyone is working harder to ensure the lives of us and the more than a thousand people in the camp. We are bandits and now we are marching. We must strictly abide by military orders and regulations. There is no harm in being stricter.

I believe the people below won't be dissatisfied if we stay with you all night."

Chen Xunping didn't expect Liu Heng to take this matter so seriously, and he couldn't help but become nervous.

When the two people were almost walking to the fire where they left, they saw an additional figure there.

Chen Xunping's eyes narrowed, his expression changed immediately, and he said angrily: "Zhao Yutu!"

I saw him striding towards the figure beside the fire. When he got close, he kicked the figure in front of the fire and knocked him to the ground.

"Zhao Yutu! How dare you come here?"

Chen Xunping was riding on Zhao Yutu and was about to hit him with his fist.

"Stop!" Liu Heng shouted from behind, quickly walked over and pulled Chen Xunping away, and helped Zhao Yutu up from the ground.

Zhao Yutu covered his chest and coughed twice, and said with dissatisfaction: "Chen Xunping, what do you mean? Just give me a kick when you come up. I don't remember offending you, right?"

"It's easy to kick you. You tricked me into going to Daliang Mountain to die. I will kill you now." Chen Xunping raised his hand and grabbed Zhao Yutu's collar, and punched him with the other hand.
