Chapter 190: Those who come are not good but dare to see
The horses had been guarding the castle for three days, and they refused to rest even though their eyes were red.
Although no one said anything about him, the whole fort was on alert waiting for the golden soldiers to come to fight. He thought it was all because of his arrow.
Although the news said that because twelve people were attacked and killed, Jin Bing abandoned Qili Tai and retreated to Kaide Mansion, but it was not that Jin Bing was frightened out of his courage. Instead, he was frantically looking for the woodcutter in the countryside.
I don't know when I will remember the hatred here and come running.
It's not certain whether the more than 300 guards and 700 people in this castle can survive.
A puff of dust and smoke rose in the distance, it was the cavalry.
Is it finally here?
The horses immediately tensed up and their teeth chattered. Others on the castle also became nervous, but they soon discovered that the cavalry approaching were the defenders of the fort next door.
More than a dozen Zhou soldiers, led by a military leader in his forties, arrived at the foot of the castle.
"Brother Wang, why are you here?" Ding Dashan came out and asked in surprise after receiving the news.
Since the Jin soldiers occupied Kaide Mansion and the Anli army retreated, these skirmishers dared not leave the fortress easily.
With the protection of the high walls of the fort, you can still fight the golden soldiers, but if you encounter them outside, you will have no confidence.
Therefore, apart from sentries passing messages back and forth between the various forts, and bringing people out to meet each other, there has been no use for some days.
"Brother Ding, have you heard the news?" Wang Juntou asked excitedly.
Ding Dashan sighed.
"After all, the war in the North is so tense. It is understandable that Prince Cheng Guo is in a hurry to go back." He said in a low voice, "But on the other hand, the military orders are overwhelming and the emperor's orders cannot be violated. He escaped from prison and escaped like this.
It is indeed a treasonous act. After he is caught, everyone will try to persuade him. Not only will he not be able to help Duke Cheng, but it will only cause more chaos."
Wang Juntou looked at him with a strange expression.
"What are you talking about?" he said, "What's going on with the Crown Prince Chengguo?"
Ding Dashan also stared.
"Isn't there news that the crown prince of Duke Cheng is wanted?" he asked.
Wang Jun sighed.
"Who said that?" he said, holding Ding Dashan's arm with an excited expression, "More than a dozen Jin soldiers from Kaide Mansion were killed."
This, Ding Dashan cheered.
"Brother Wang, you don't have enough information. I've known about it for a long time, saying that he is from the country..." he said.
Before he finished speaking, Wang Juntou interrupted him.
"Again." he said.
again?
Ding Dashan was stunned for a moment, then looked shocked.
"Again?" he repeated.
Wang Jun nodded, stretched out his hand and made a number.
"Eighteen," he said.
Eighteen!
My dear mother-in-law!
Could it be that woodcutter in the country who did it again?
Ding Dashan felt like his heart was going to jump out of his throat. What kind of hero was this?
…………………………
Eighteen heads were lined up in front of the gate of Kaide Mansion. The blood stains had solidified after a night, and their faces were ferocious under the sunlight, showing the pain they suffered before death.
The golden soldiers standing on the city wall kept shouting and cursing, but the city gate was always closed and did not open, which made their shouts and curses seem a bit timid.
A team went to search the Jin soldiers who attacked Qilitai at night. Taking advantage of the large number of people, they did not return to Fucheng when it was dark. As a result, all the heads were placed in front of the city gate early the next morning.
The entire army was wiped out.
The Jin army general standing on the city wall turned red with anger.
It was not easy to fight all the way from the north to here, and many people were killed, but I have never been as embarrassed as at this moment.
This is provocation, this is naked provocation.
It's also shocking.
Can one person do it?
"No, the wounds are different. The detective said that the traces at the scene showed that there should be more than a dozen people." A deputy general said in nonsense.
A dozen people?
Turns out he’s not the same person?
If they had known that there were more than a dozen people, they would never have sent out only a dozen people to search for him.
Was the original person a decoy?
These Han people are indeed despicable and shameless.
Kill them all, kill them all!
General Jin angrily yelled and cursed again. Following his curse, the city gate opened wide and a large group of gold soldiers poured out, roaring and surrounding the heads of more than a dozen gold soldiers.
The generals of the Jin soldiers also rushed out fully armed, and were about to order everyone to chase and suppress them, when several Jin soldiers who were collecting the heads of their companions suddenly shouted.
They were speaking nonsense, and their voices were even weirder now, as if they were frightened.
Ding Dashan, who was hiding in the secret passage, couldn't help but poke his head slightly and vaguely saw a golden soldier holding an ax and shouting.
The Jin soldiers used long-handled axes, which were common farm tools in the countryside.
What's so special about this ax?
It seems that Jin Bing is very scared?
Ding Dashan saw the general yelling something, and the crowd gathered their heads and retreated in like a tide, and the city gate was instantly closed.
No troops were sent to hunt down the murderer? Are you scared? What happened?
Ding Dashan was confused, and the sentry next to him tugged on his sleeve.
"The woodcutter," he whispered, "They said the woodcutter is here."
The sentinels all understood some nonsense, which was also the requirement of Duke Cheng back then.
The woodcutter, it was indeed the woodcutter who killed Jin Bing, but after these thirty people were killed, Jin Bing was so frightened that he didn’t even dare to search?
As for that? Ding Dashan was even more puzzled.
"Fuck!"
After hearing this, a military leader in the room slammed the table.
His strength was so great that the somewhat fragile table fell apart with a crash.
The tea bowls on the table were all thrown to the floor, and curses immediately erupted in the room.
These are the several nearby camp commanders who were summoned.
Ding Dashan felt even more sorry for his own property.
"You idiot Shida, why are you so crazy?" he shouted angrily.
"The woodcutter!" Shi Juntou ignored him. He had already jumped up and pointed to the north, "That's the woodcutter from Subi Lake. Damn it, no wonder the golden dog was so scared that he closed the door and dared not come out.
, not only killed thirty people, this woodcutter killed enough golden men to pile up a mountain of firewood."
The woodcutter of Subi Lake!
There was silence in the room for a moment, and then there was an explosion.
Although it is far away from the Northland, military affairs are exchanged, and the story of the woodcutter is legendary and passionate, so it naturally spreads.
I just didn't expect that the woodcutter would leave the Northland and come here.
"Could it be that it was arranged by Duke Cheng?" a military leader said suddenly.
The emperor ordered Duke Cheng to come to aid Kaide Mansion, but everyone knew that Duke flatly refused.
In fact, it is understandable for them that Duke Cheng Guo does not come back. After all, what they have to stop in the north is ten thousand or twenty thousand golden soldiers. Compared with the two thousand here, it is really not worth mentioning.
This is how it is on the battlefield, there are always choices and trade-offs, and the overall situation must be taken into consideration, and many times the so-called taking into account the overall situation means sacrificing the small situation.
They also recognized that this was what soldiers would inevitably encounter. They were ready to die at any time when they went to the battlefield.
But I didn't expect that Duke Cheng Guo didn't come and sent a woodcutter instead.
"But don't woodcutters belong to the army? The imperial court even ordered them to be arrested, saying they were disturbing people's morale and disrupting military affairs." Another military leader hesitated and said.
This is also true. At the beginning, Jin Yiwei asked Duke Cheng Guo to strictly investigate the woodcutter, otherwise he would be impeached for raising private soldiers, which would be a crime of treason.
"The woodcutter only kills the golden men. Now that the golden men have come to us, they only come to kill the golden dogs." Wang Juntou thought for a while and said.
Ding Dashan shook his head.
"Then there are more golden dogs in the Northland," he said.
It would be easier to kill a golden dog in the North.
A group of people were sitting in the room, thinking hard around the scattered wooden tables and tea bowls, when suddenly a soldier ran in with a panic expression.
"Sir, it's not good." he shouted.
The military leaders in the room immediately straightened up.
Because of too many losses, the Jin people were angry and decided to take action against the fort officers and soldiers?
The soldier looked a little strange and pointed outside.
"It's a group of people who call themselves woodcutters," he said.
Woodcutter.
The military leaders in the room froze again.
As expected, there is no one behind the scenes...
Woodcutter.
The characters who had always been chatting suddenly arrived outside the gate of their camp and were about to see a living person!
It feels a bit unreal and weird.
Still feeling a little timid for no reason.
A group of rough men, like 28-year-old young girls, clenched their hands and looked hesitant.
To see or not to see?
