Wearing a thin cloth, Zhou Tong waded through the waist-deep water with difficulty. He held a long knife in his mouth and his face was covered with mud. He was followed by more than thirty men dressed in the same clothes as him. The last three were
A man dragged a small sledge behind him. On the sledge were piled a crossbow tied with oilcloth and a bag of food.
After walking through an inlet, they climbed ashore one by one. Zhou Tong twisted his trousers and said to the strong man next to him: "Wang Xing, we are walking in such a secretive way. The general will not think that we are coming out from the west, right?"
"
The strong man helped Zhou Tong wring out his clothes and said: "I can't tell, the general is very cunning. Captain Wu, we should be more careful. Liang Ji is unreasonable and ruthless. He treats everyone the same. Captain Wu and the others
I was climbing a mountain, but I was caught by Liang Ji. Now I am still learning to jump. We brothers cannot commit this crime.
Captain, why do you think the commander is training us all as scouts? Although that bastard Lang Lige is an iron kite, I'm afraid he can't make everyone into an iron kite, right?"
Zhou Tong sat on the rock and took out the tarpaulin from his arms. He looked at it and said, "Old Wang, the general wants everyone to have more skills to save their lives. I don't expect to train everyone into an iron kite to kill the enemy."
It's right to save your life first, everyone is good, but my team is dragging everyone down."
The strong man next to him chuckled and said, "You, a scholar, have been humbled by joining our Qiu Ba team. With you here, at least someone has written the family letters of the brothers."
Zhou Tong chuckled and said: "Don't be too happy. After training, do you think you don't need to read? Five words a day is a hard rule. If you can't complete it, hehe, Lao Wang, the whip from the Military Law Department can really be used."
Come down."
When he said this, Lao Wang's face fell. Everything in Jiaziying was good, but this one was not so good. What calligraphy should Qiu Ba learn? Are his fingers as thick as a rolling pin used to hold a brush?
Zhou Tong added some lines on the map and pointed to the mountain road ahead: "We have completed most of this road. As long as we figure out the mountain ahead, we can go back quietly. Then the brothers will be proud and proud.
.
But I feel like something is wrong. It's too quiet here. It's not a good sign that there are no birds singing in the mountains. When I went to the mountains in the past, there should be water snakes crawling in the water, but I didn't seem to see them today.
Lao Wang, you take the map and hide with two brothers, and we go to climb the mountain secretly. Even if we are caught, you hold the map, and we have completed most of the map. Since we are scouts, it is best to send the map back.
important."
Wang Xing nodded, wrapped the map in a tarpaulin, quietly went into the water with two people, crossed the river and hid in the bushes on the opposite side.
Zhou Tong then picked up his weapon and climbed up the path carefully.
The journey was surprisingly smooth, but Zhou Tong became impatient. As soon as he drew a few maps, he would order his two brothers to take the mountain terrain map back. Seeing that he was about to reach the top of the mountain, he suddenly took the last one
Thread the blueprint on the crossbow arrow, raise your hand and shoot down the mountain, then hold the knife and shout to set up the formation.
It was too late, dense crossbow arrows were fired at them, leaving countless white spots on their bodies. Zhou Tong felt that his whole body was in pain. These bastards had agreed to only use long strings, how could they use short strings now?
Coming? The arrow hit my body and it hurt.
Peng Jiu came out from behind the tree, holding a chicken leg in his hand and gnawing on it. He pointed at Zhou Tong with the chicken bone and said: "You have been killed in battle. Take out the map yourself and don't let me dig through the body. You are eating!"
"
Zhou Tong patted his clothes. The wet clothes quickly turned blue when stained with white ash. He led his men to sit on the rocks and began to take out food to eat. He had no good impression of Peng Jiu who killed him.
Peng Jiu chuckled and said: "It doesn't matter if you are not convinced. We will have tough words next time when we win. Since you are unwilling to cooperate, I have no choice but to search. I agreed not to resist. You are already corpses."
Zhou Tong swallowed a large piece of meat pie, took a sip of water, looked up at the proud Peng Jiu and said with a smile: "That's natural, let's search, let's agree in advance that you are not allowed to touch your crotch. If you touch it like crazy, I will do it."
Angry."
Peng Jiu smiled and said, "Then you have to promise not to hide the map in your crotch."
Peng Jiu, who was smiling lewdly, and a group of his subordinates came out from their respective hiding places. When they were about to search him, Peng Jiu's expression suddenly changed. He found that Zhou Tong had the wrong number of men. There were thirty people in each team, plus the total number of people in the team.
Thirty-one people, obviously there are less than thirty-one people here, only twenty-four people, and seven people are missing.
Zhou Tong proudly put the meatloaf in his mouth and took a big bite and said with a smile: "Lao Peng, you are finished. The purpose of my talking nonsense to you is to delay your time. Lao Wang should have gone around the road by now, right?"
"
Peng Jiu threw away the chicken bones and said with a sullen face: "I have investigated it. If you don't go to this position, you won't be able to explore the whole mountain. What you sent back is also a incomplete map."
Zhou Tong laughed and said: "Lao Peng, of course you don't know if you haven't learned trigonometric calculations. As long as I know two points and the angle of observation, I can figure out the third point, which is the height of the top of the mountain. The reason why I took the risk to come up is nothing more than
It was just to see the mountainous terrain, but I didn’t know where the road was. The last arrow I shot had the things I saw on it. Lao Wang and the others should have gotten those residual pictures when you pointed at me with the chicken legs.
Well, with the wisdom of the general, your broken mountain still has secrets for him. Just wait to be punished."
After Zhou Tong finished speaking, his own subordinates immediately burst into laughter. Although they looked a little worse and the more unlucky ones had their heads full of bruises, their spirits were very high.
Yun Zheng was roasting a wild boar and kept applying the sauce on the wild boar. The whole valley was filled with the aroma of barbecue. Liang Ji stood on the side and helped Yun Zheng carry the seasoning. In the open space not far away, countless people
The man in Tsing Yi was running in circles carrying the logs, and Lang Lige was chasing after him with a whip in his hand like a ferocious look.
Yun Zheng saw all this from TV. Regardless of whether it is easy to use or not, it is still better than the training methods of the Song Dynasty, which involve endlessly hitting wooden piles with a mallet to practice strength, and endlessly swinging a knife.
, Of course, Yun Zheng has not let go of these two things. He is now discussing with Zhou Tong and others how to combine weapons such as swords, shields, spears, and crossbows to deal with cavalry.
The Song Dynasty's method was to use huge tower shields and heavy infantry armor. Although carrying these two things could effectively resist the impact of cavalry, it was completely impossible to counterattack and defeat the enemy. Therefore, after defeating the enemy, they were always exhausted.
On this occasion, he was killed again and turned around.
Yun Zheng had seen the infantry armor, which was made up of more than a thousand iron pieces connected in series. It weighed a total of sixty kilograms. He also held a long weapon weighing more than ten kilograms in his hand. When he first saw this thing, Yun Zheng took it.
It was taken off his shopping list. This was a turtle shell ready to be beaten. It was a choice Da Song made out of desperation.
Yun Zheng did not need to make such a choice. He could get enough war horses. The reason why he did not accept Bao Zheng's money was because he wanted to continue to exert influence on the ranch. After all, he would also need war horses in the future.
When the wild boar was roasted, Zhou Tong came back. He took off his boots and put on light cloth shoes and came to Yun Zheng's side. He took the plate handed over by Yun Zheng, took a bite of the roast pork and said with a sigh: "Kill."
The enemy is 10,000, but you will lose 3,000!"
"Take your time, let's train our subordinates first, so that we can receive a large army in the future. However, this army is likely to be poor and have nothing. Not only do we have to receive a poor army, but we also have to receive three times the army.
The poor family members left and right have a long road ahead of them. Take your time and don’t be in a hurry. By the way, Peng Jiu was defeated by you? It’s amazing!"
Yun Zheng saw Peng Jiu angrily going to Langlig to receive punishment, and asked the last question strangely.
"It's nothing strange. It's just a method of segmentation. If I can't deceive even a rough guy, how can I follow you to deceive everyone in the world? I have studied your experience carefully. In fact, it is just a trick. To put it bluntly, deceit is
cheat.
This is a very profound knowledge, Changsheng, do you think we can deceive those old traitors in the future?"
"I'm afraid it will be difficult, unless we get to the level of the old traitor Feng Yun. In fact, deceiving people also pays attention to status. There is a certain number of deceptions based on what status you deceive and what class of people you deceive."
"Didn't you deceive everyone in Xixia with your bare butt?"
Yun Zheng chuckled and said: "They are all a bunch of beasts with endless desires. If my tricks are used in the Song Dynasty, I am afraid that they will be chopped into meat by the swordsmen. We are monkeys, and we are not as good as donkeys."
To compete with whose dick is longer, we compete with other things, such as brains."
Zhou Tong nodded in agreement. He cut the meat from the wild boar with a knife. He ate three plates before he stopped. He wiped his mouth with oil and said with a smile: "In just one month, my appetite has greatly increased. I never used to eat it."
I can now eat four of the sesame seed cakes in one meal, but the meat on my shoulders, thighs, and chest has become so solid that I feel like I can kill a cow with one punch."
"Stop bragging. If you kill a cow, kill a pig first. Then go ahead. It's time for you to ride a horse. You must practice this skill well. Even if you can't charge, we can still run faster than others when we escape.
"
Zhou Tong laughed and went to the big venue. This is Woniu Mountain. The place where Huang Zhou fought fiercely with the bandits was now opened up as a training ground by Yunzheng. There is a large flat grassland on the top of the mountain. With the efforts of the Jiaziying family,
Down, deep pits were filled in, and some hills were leveled, and the entire top of the mountain became the most suitable place for horse racing.
Some of the classmates are practicing strength, some are practicing crossbow shooting, and some are holding a knife and practicing each move under Liang Ji's training. Everyone is working hard. There is no one who can survive ten years of hardship.
A person who is not strong-willed.
Wu Jie likes to attack difficulties the most. Now he is leading a group of people to imitate Huang Zhou's appearance to practice attacking difficulties. Although the time is still short, under Xiao Lin's training, it has already become a model. (To be continued)
