"Woooooooooooooooo~~~..."
In the afternoon, at the junction of Bohai County and Pingyuan County, on the plain north of Douzigang, in the early autumn wind, a short and then long horn sound suddenly sounded, but it was mixed with the autumn wind, and then drowned in the commotion and In the shouts.
It turned out that two gangs under Zhang Jinscale were hurriedly trying to cross a small river that was only more than a foot wide in an attempt to keep up with the large army on the other side of the river.
But soon, the rumble of horse hooves easily shook the land, bringing the original commotion and shouting to a halt. But it was just a slight stagnation, and what followed was a larger-scale commotion and shouting, a hasty escape and a panic to meet the enemy.
"It's Cheng Dalang!"
Someone cried in public. "Cheng Dalang's cavalry is here!"
"Where are the spears? Where are the spears? Aren't the two leaders ready with spearmen? Why don't you stand up... Why are the spearmen at the front? Come this way quickly!"
"Where are our cavalry? Didn't we say there are two cavalry? Why don't you come to rescue them?"
"Where are all the good cultivators? Aren't there hundreds of good cultivators?"
"Zhang Lezi is unreasonable. He came here this morning and said it himself. If Cheng Dalang comes here, he will come back and save us!"
However, the pikemen did not push forward, their own cavalry did not appear, the practitioners showed no shadow, and friendly troops did not appear for the time being... In the confusion and panic, before Cheng Dalang's cavalry actually hit him, the thieves in front He turned around in panic, causing the two groups of troops behind him to separate and flee.
Immediately, hundreds of cavalrymen flying the banner of Cheng easily maintained their impact speed in the fields and official roads. The armored cavalry was in front and the light cavalry was behind, chasing and dividing the two groups of thieves.
On the uncovered plain fields, the brutal killings and bloody trampling, as well as the helpless screams and complete chaos, formed a sharp contrast.
This scene has been staged two or three times today, and it has been staged twice yesterday. Each time it happened when a small number of rebels were separated from the larger army by rivers and ditches... And although every time they faced The scenes were different, but in the end Cheng Dalang's 800 cavalry easily completed the tactical tasks - assault, separation, killing, and driving away.
In the end, the isolated rebels were forced to give up their rendezvous with the larger army, turned around and went into the fields to the west, and then dispersed into the few sorghum fields, or hid in small irrigation ditches.
In fact, even in a few sorghum fields that are as high as one person or in small river ditches that are as deep as two people, cavalry with high vision and high mobility cannot hide people. However, these cavalry are not obsessed with killing, as long as the rebels If you take the initiative to flee from the large group, you will immediately get a chance to escape.
In two consecutive days, Cheng Dalang alone came five times, and the infantry also attacked three times on the edge of Douzigang. In addition, the two vanguard cavalry suddenly disappeared at the beginning. The troops who were attacked may still need to spend their lives to learn this trick, but as a Zhang Jinscale, the commander-in-chief of the army, had already realized something.
It is precisely because of this that when Cheng Dalang was about to complete his assault easily, he encountered an unexpected enemy.
A group of more than a thousand people, with extremely high armor coverage and exceptionally capable soldiers, suddenly bucked the trend and hurried over to Xiaohegou, obviously trying to rescue them.
Of course, this core force, which naturally ranks among Zhang Jinsheng's confidants, arrived too late. The two thousand-man gangsters hanging on the other side of the river had already been dispersed and fled, and this army of soldiers was also forced to Stopped on the other side of the small river ditch where there was actually a pontoon bridge - when all the friendly forces on the other side had dispersed, it seemed not a wise move to try to cross the river in front of a cavalry that had begun to regroup.
However, this core force, which had obviously been ordered to do so, was unwilling to retreat.
"Where is Cheng Dalang? Zhang Botao is here in Hejian. Do you dare to challenge him?!"
Just when Cheng Zhili was about to turn around and lead his troops to leave, a horse suddenly came from the opposite bank. The horse was so handsome that it flew directly into the air and flew over the river, and then calmly neighed and landed. The man on the horse was also tall and fully clothed. , a pair of bright armor shining brightly in the afternoon sun, brandishing a spear and calling for battle.
"It's Zhang Lezi Zhang Xiaoyi."
An appropriate guard at Cheng Zhili's side immediately stepped forward and reported in a low voice. "I knew during my previous reconnaissance that this guy had become Zhang Jinheng's confidant, leading one of the three Chinese army soldiers... and there should be two hundred crossbowmen in this group of soldiers. Zhang Lezi was also surprised. A master who has access to the four meridians!"
The general is just introducing the situation, but the current meaning is self-evident - there are two hundred crossbowmen, which means that as long as the crossbow is mounted, one can cross the river calmly, and Zhang Laizi should just rely on his high cultivation to delay.
In other words, there is no need to pester at this time, just leave when it’s time.
"good."
Cheng Zhili, who was covered in armor, grinned. "It's the right time to leave now... But Zhang Lezi is an old friend after all, and it would be rude not to say hello... That horse should also be a dragon colt, so it's a pity to give it to Zhang Lezi... Besides, he can't set up a crossbow array. Is it the skill of burning an incense stick?"
The surrounding family generals and confidants Ma Shujiaqi were all used to following Cheng Dalang. They understood immediately, but they didn't say a word. They just held the reins and reins of their horses tightly.
The next moment, Cheng Zhili laughed loudly, raised his long spear and said, "Is it Zhang Lezi? Wait for me to kill you!"
Zhang Botao was overjoyed when he heard this and wanted to reply.
Unexpectedly, as soon as Cheng Dalang finished speaking, he came on horseback.
Not only that, dozens of elite armored cavalry beside him also followed suit. At least half of them were exuding true energy, but they were guarding his own general who was also wearing a white light, and went straight to the man who was alone in the formation. Zhang Xiaoyi left.
Zhang Xiaoyi was stunned for a moment, and it took him a moment to realize what was going on. However, Cheng Zhili, who had no martial ethics, led his men to kill him directly.
But he was about to rein in his horse and prepare to escape with the dragon colt under his crotch, but unexpectedly, the white light on Cheng Zhili's body suddenly bloomed like a jade plate, and Duanjiang's true energy adhered to the Changshan, causing the Changshan to almost grow by ten feet out of thin air. Then he saw a foot-long ray of light striking towards his face.
At this moment, Zhang Lezi, Zhang Botao, or Zhang Xiaoyi had already given up on escaping. Instead, they only had one thought that flashed through them - Cheng Dalang was about to condense his elixir! But since they are all of this level of cultivation, why not kill themselves in a single fight in a grand manner, but instead lead their own soldiers to bully the few?
Is he shameless? !
Zhang Xiaoyi turned over, and Zhang Xiaoyi who was sitting on the horse was cut off directly from the chest and abdomen. For a moment, his clothes, armor, bones and flesh were even, and then he was bleeding like a fountain. The upper body that fell off the horse was still thinking.
It can only be said that Duanjiang Zhenqi is worthy of being the orthodox inheritance of Emperor Bai.
There was little gossip, and Cheng Dalang succeeded with one blow. He ignored the many thief soldiers who were almost frightened on the other side of the river. He directly gathered his energy and turned around and left. However, a close soldier had already stepped forward and led the dragon colt to follow.
Immediately, the eight hundred cavalrymen cheered and headed south directly along the flat terrain. However, before evening, they entered the area of Douzi Post and gathered the large troops in the post.
Then on a small stone hill, I saw Zhang San and Li Si, as well as generals Niu Da, Guo Jingke, Cheng Mingqi, Fang Yanshi, and Zhou Xingfan.
"Congratulations to Cheng Dalang for returning victoriously!"
Niuda was the first to surrender. They had similar backgrounds and were fellow townsmen, so they naturally wanted to show their closeness.
"It's these people who can't help but fight! I thought they were some kind of heroes, but they turned out to be nothing more than that!"
Cheng Zhili shouted loudly and immediately took off his clothes and armor at the foot of the post. Not only was he sweating profusely, but most of his white flesh was exposed, making him look like a hero.
"You don't know, these thieves don't know anything! Yesterday, when I attacked the rearguard troops for the first time and burned their camp and luggage, I was actually asked to find more than a hundred crossbows in the car... I thought at that time, what if They used their cars to form a formation across the river and mounted their crossbows. What could I do?! It turned out that they didn’t even know how to pick up a crossbow, let alone a train formation! The second time I went to fight, there were a lot of spears that had escaped from the Wei army. , were all set up. I thought I had met someone knowledgeable, but I just went around to the other side, and they were in chaos! Today, these soldiers and horses can only trample on each other, even the spear array and crossbow array. Not many of them stood up..."
Zhang Xing and Li Ding could hear clearly on their posts, but they could only look at each other silently in the whimpering autumn wind.
After a while, Li Ding nudged the person next to him with his elbow and asked in a low voice: "Why don't you go down and give me some comfort and praise? Will you be your Dongdu Hu Baoyi?"
"It's not like I didn't do anything yesterday." Zhang Xing curled his lips. "Besides, this kind of spirit has done it again and again, making that kind of method ridiculous...rewards and punishments are clear, just keep your word."
"But since everyone is like this, you should cooperate and show it to the people around you." Li Ding couldn't rush him enough.
Zhang Xing thought for a while, then nodded, but before turning around, he asked in a low voice: "With the battle going like this, do we need to change our strategy?"
Li Ding just nodded.
"No matter what military strategy you have later, you must respectfully ask me for advice before making the final decision." After saying this in a low voice, Zhang Sanlang walked away with his hands behind his back.
Li Silang was stunned for a moment, then came to his senses, but then sighed and shook his head.
"Cheng Dalang fought well." Zhang Xing came down from the stone hill with his hands behind his back. Although he was condescending, he still smiled.
The sweat on Cheng Dalang's body was about to be blown dry. He was just waiting for this scene. Then he stood up and bowed down with his shirt off, and in turn blew each other one, two, three, four.
This scene was played out for a while yesterday, so I won’t find it boring today.
Unexpectedly, Zhang walked very slowly, and instead asked in a hurry: "Cheng Dalang, do you know what we were talking about before you came?"
Cheng Dalang was slightly startled, knowing that the other party had changed the scene, he quickly became solemn and said: "I know what's reasonable but I don't know..."
"We are talking about Zhang Jinsheng." Zhang Xing glanced at Guo Jingke and spoke seriously. "Chief Xiao Guo and Zhang Jinsheng are old friends. Needless to say, his achievements are all due to him leading Zhang Jinsheng into a trap and destroying the opponent's cavalry..."
"Chief Xiao Guo is the first to contribute." Cheng Dalang was unambiguous and immediately waved his hand.
And Guo Jingke also quickly returned the courtesy... He naturally knew that, not to mention that Zhang Sanlang was the leader and Li Silang above was the military leader, but that Cheng Dalang was also one of the unmistakable big leaders, and he had always been on the same level as Xu Dalang and the others. Yes, this battle is even more majestic. From status to reputation to strength, he is obviously a level above me... How can he dare to win?
As for the first achievement... To put it bluntly, your 800 cavalry raided five or six times. One family is worth twice as much as the others combined. Who dares to compete with you for the credit?
Moreover, Guo Jingke also had something on his mind - he had been half-hearted before, but after this day and a half of fighting, Zhang Jinscale's face had already been torn off, so that he also felt extremely guilty.
"According to Leader Guo's words." Zhang Xing finally walked down, but he was quite emotional. "That Zhang Jinzheng was also a serious hero in the past. No matter how you look at it, he is a figure. Once he became powerful, his reputation spread throughout Hebei and the Eastern Region. He probably also had the name in Dongdu and Jiangdu... But I don't know why. , in these two days, you Cheng Dalang attacked five times, Cheng Qilang (named after Cheng) attacked once, Fang Erjiulang (Fang Yanshi) attacked once, and Leader Niu also made a symbolic attack with surrendered troops, plus Leader Guo At the beginning, everyone said that this person was just like that...Cheng Dalang, why do you think it is?"
"I think, rather than saying that Zhang Jinsheng is just like this, it is better to say that the characters here are all real heroes!" Cheng Zhili smiled and immediately spoke up. "Master Zhang, your situation is like playing the eastern border of Hebei as a chessboard. Turning your hands makes clouds and rain. Master Li's military strategy is also very powerful. He leads a group of civilians, but he only needs to stay in Po Tai for a few months." To be able to create such a strong army, to ambush and raid dozens of miles away from Po Tai, and to set up camps and military stations in Douzigang along the way without any loss, it is really a person I have never seen in my life; as for me, Cheng Da and Brother Niu, of course they are I have some skills, but I can only say that I didn’t lose face to both of you.”
Zhang Xing also smiled, and then shook his head.
Cheng Zhili immediately became solemn.
"Actually, after I thought about it, the reason why this gold scale is 'no more than this' is because it is 'no more than this'." As he spoke, Zhang Xing patted the other party's smooth shoulder with his cold hand.
Cheng Zhili was suddenly startled, but his muscles only tensed. He was stunned but did not release his true energy. Instead, he asked seriously: "What do you mean, Third Master?"
"It doesn't mean anything else."
Zhang Xing stopped his hand and said with emotion.
"I was just thinking, according to the intelligence, when Zhang Jinscale was forced to rebel against the Wei Dynasty, and after gathering dozens of troops and hundreds of civilians, he was forced to fight the local government and rob the official grain, what would happen? Not afraid?
"Then, he first fought with Cao Shancheng, the magistrate of his own county, Yi County. As a result, the two sides fought more than a dozen battles for a month and could not win each other. At that time, would you feel frustrated again?
"As a result, they were suddenly forced to go to other counties to seek food. Recruiting soldiers was like drinking water. Ordnance was picked up everywhere. The war was even more devastating. More than a dozen counties, many serious officers and soldiers, many local heroes, and many famous families could only stay here. He was completely defeated. At that time, would he have thought... It turned out that only I, Zhang Jinscale, and Cao Shancheng were the heroes of the world, and the others were 'just like that'?
"It can be seen that all the heroes in this world are afraid of being 'no more than that'!"
"Master Zhang is absolutely right!" Cheng Dalang came to his senses and saluted seriously again. "No matter what, we should not underestimate the enemy just because we are fighting a war, especially when our career has just started... Mr. Zhang taught you the right lesson."
Cheng Dalang's words were sincere, because his character was also very cautious. It was just that he felt comfortable fighting in the past two days, so he started to act recklessly... Even other people also woke up.
"Mr. Zhang means more than that."
At this moment, Li Ding suddenly walked down from the stone hilltop.
"Actually, there are too many reasons for the war...the right time, the right place, the right people, all aspects...Looking at it today, it is just that Zhang Jinsheng expanded the army too quickly, had no experience in running an army, and added to the indiscriminate killing, which broke people's hearts. So we easily restrained them. To put it bluntly, if you give it to someone for two years, they have fought many battles and practiced little by little, you may not know who will lose! Even if you give them two years, they will throw away their peripheral troops and only bring them with them. With thousands of people in our headquarters, it may not be so easy!”
At this point, Li Ding stood in front of a few people and made a conclusion confidently: "This is because Zhang Jinsheng has lost his eyes, and it is also because we have made sufficient preparations... and based on the success or failure of a battle, he arbitrarily evaluates the effectiveness of a general and an army. The advantages and disadvantages are ridiculous!”
Everyone was stunned for a moment.
"Did you hear that?" Zhang Xing suddenly spoke, pointing at Li Ding. "This is the theory of famous generals!"
Everyone nodded quickly.
"Okay." Li Ding's face turned red and he coughed slightly. "It is ridiculous to determine the success or failure of a general or an army based on the success or failure of a battle. However, the most dangerous thing about soldiers is that after the success or failure of a battle, if you can go on to overthrow the army and kill the general, then at least you can defeat the enemy. Crucified in one place, there is no more superfluous talk... At this point in the battle, we have to change our strategy and decide the winner immediately before Zhang Jinscale wakes up to his situation!"
All the generals were in awe.
"Can the outcome be decided tonight?" Zhang Xing, on the other hand, frowned slightly. "Eighty-nine battles were fought before and after, but he was reduced by seven to eight thousand men, less than 20% of his strength."
"Yes." Li Ding answered seriously. "Although there are only 10 to 20% fewer troops, the military is already impetuous and the command is ineffective... At this point in the battle, his biggest disadvantage has actually been revealed, that is, the troops are too bloated and the elite cannot be spread among them."
"But we only have three thousand infantry, and the cavalry is also very tired during the day." Niu Da carefully interrupted, causing Cheng Zhili to nod. "They still have a small forty thousand people."
"There's no need to fight hard." Li Ding said with squinted eyes. "I have been observing the wind direction, wind strength, cold and heat, dryness and wetness for half a day... We can use fire attack tonight... Otherwise, we will not easily call a decisive battle."
All the generals below Zhang Xing were startled. They thought they were going to ambush from all sides, but they didn't expect this to happen.
All I can say is that the way to use military force is to remain focused.
But then, Xiao Zhou, who was more serious, came to ask seriously: "Brother Li, the crops in the field are only a shallow layer, and they can only be exposed to one layer of fire. How can they burn with such power and cause damage?"
Li Ding shook his head in reply: "I don't expect fire to burn people to death. Fire is used to cause chaos. In essence, our strategy of ambush from all sides has worked. The opponent's military morale has been messed up, so we can fight in advance."
"What Li Shuijun means..." Cheng Dalang hesitated. "The thieves are unprepared and exhausted. Let's send out spies and start fires everywhere inside their camp at the same time?"
"No need." Li Ding still shook his head. "I observed the situation before I came out from the podium, and thought that I might use this trick, so Bai Ri had asked Fang Xian Lieutenant to prepare under the post, and leave it to him to set fire inside the camp. You guys can gather your energy. Rui, just bring a torch with you and set fire to the outside during the night attack."
Fang Yanshi looked calm and bowed in all directions: "My Shuijun has already made arrangements, don't worry."
Everyone looked at this person one after another and could only keep silent, but then focused their attention on Zhang Xing.
Li Ding followed everyone's gaze and suddenly realized, but he quickly raised his hands and saluted: "This is my strategy. I don't know if Mr. Zhang agrees with it... I still want you to make the decision in everything..."
Several people looked strange.
Zhang Xing thought for a while and immediately asked the others: "Do you have any opinions?"
No one dared to say anything, except Guo Jingke whose lips moved obviously.
"Chief Xiao Guo, please speak." Zhang Xing pointed.
Guo Jingke bowed his head and said: "I don't know how to fight, and I don't dare to participate in the military, but I don't know how much Li... Li Shuijun will burn... burn the crops... how much will he burn?"
"How much will be burned?" Zhang Xing asked Li Ding seriously. "Can Du Chengsui's crops be burned? Aren't you afraid of hurting Tianhe and having Sanhui and Siyu blamed?"
"It's hard to say..." Li Ding was silent for a moment before speaking. "The way I lit the fire was a little out of control...but the area in front of the post was densely covered with rivers, so the fire would not spread too much. Moreover, if Zhang Jinsheng was exterminated one day earlier, more food would be saved. In comparison, this The loss of crops is not worth mentioning... Come to think of it, even if the three radiances and four emperors are above me, I won't blame you."
Zhang Xing was also silent for a while.
Seeing this, Li Ding wanted to say something more, but he remembered what he had said before and just waited silently.
The others just stared with big eyes and small eyes, all bowed their heads and said nothing.
After a long while, Zhang Xingfang nodded: "When the war started, I don't know how many lives were lost. To care about this at this time would seem to be incompetent... Let's just settle it. This battle can be ended tonight."
Li Ding was relieved, but soon he felt strange... because he seemed to be a little scared of Zhang Xing just now, fearing that the other party would say no and accuse him of only focusing on military affairs and not politics.
Cheng Dalang looked at this scene and finally nodded in his heart.
"How to say?"
About an hour had passed since the military discussion inside Douzigang. Under the double moon, on the plains about ten miles in front of Douzigang, leader Zhang Jinsheng and Zhang Da were also trying to end the military discussion. "Are these two? One is to go north, farther away from Douzi Hill. The cavalry will not be able to come so fast without a base; the other is to go south, directly into Douzi Hill and find the enemy's camp?"
The leaders below just lowered their eyebrows and frowned, without any reaction.
"Forget it, I shouldn't count on you..." Seeing this, Zhang Jinscale suddenly took a deep breath. "But you have to be honest. It's nothing more than this. You have no other choice... Well, let's go to Douzi Gang tomorrow. If we can find the other side's camp, we can fight hand-to-hand in the hill. , of course it’s good; but if you miss something or are stopped by someone, just withdraw immediately, go north, and go around Beanzi Hill!”
Many leaders below breathed a sigh of relief and praised him one after another.
Zhang Jinscale also waved his hand on the huge square couch and told the leaders to get out.
However, after the leaders dispersed, Zhang Jinscale asked his soldiers to call back four or five of his trusted leaders privately.
"Big boss!"
Several trusted leaders knew that Zhang Jinsheng had an order, so they simply bowed down and bowed down under the leadership of the leader. "Please give me the chief's instructions. We will definitely not let the news leak out."
"This battle cannot be fought."
Reflecting on the bonfire not far away, Zhang Jinsheng made a completely different judgment with a dark face. "Thinking about it now, I'm afraid we fell into the trap from the beginning, otherwise Guo Xiaozi, who led me to attack Pu Tai that day, wouldn't have run away halfway, and Cheng Dalang has actually joined the army... But now I finally What I'm afraid of is that Cao Shancheng is responsible for this. Although he is just a county magistrate, he is a man of real ability. Putai is also an officer and soldier, and he is also capable... Gaotang is our hometown, but now it is a bit empty. .”
"Then let's..."
"Tomorrow morning." Zhang Jinsheng gritted his teeth. "Wang Er, you lead your headquarters to attack Douzigang. Don't worry about the lives of the soldiers. I will replace them for you if you don't have many. Be sure to bring in those leaders. As long as you escape back... The rest of you, pack up your things early tomorrow morning and pretend with me to take a detour from the north, but in fact, leave them alone and go back to Gaotang from the north! I finally figured it out, these guys only use money and food, and they don't know what to do. There are not many decent people who can easily be bribed by the army. Besides, without these people, we will not be short of food."
Only then did several leaders wake up and immediately left in response.
As soon as the people left, Zhang Jinsheng sat alone on the huge square couch and remained silent.
After a long time, he decided to ask someone to dismantle the square couch under him and start a bonfire. However, he was blown by the warm autumn wind and gradually became sleepy. Finally, he simply fell asleep on the couch alone.
"Li Shuijun."
I don’t know how long it took, but Fang Yanshi walked over on a slope on the edge of Douzigang, interrupting Li Ding’s contemplation. The latter was looking at the covered mountain more than ten miles away under the double moon. The huge and chaotic camp was in a daze that could not be covered.
"Are you ready?" Li Ding came back to his senses and asked seriously.
"Everything is ready." Fang Yanshi responded carefully. "They have all formed up."
"Then you watch the opportunity and take action within a quarter of an hour." Li Ding, with his hands behind his back, simply ordered.
Fang Yanshi nodded, but did not leave.
"Have something to say?" Li Ding suddenly felt enlightened and turned around to ask.
"Yes." Fang Yanshi responded seriously. "Li Shuijun really wants to return to Dongdu?"
Li Ding remained silent.
"Actually, I have a cousin who was involved in Yang Shen's troubles before. He also said that he had met Li Shuijun... Li Shu also kept writing letters to him before..."
"What exactly do you want to say?" Li Ding urged. "Don't miss the fight."
"I think so." Fang Yanshi bowed his head sincerely. "With Li Shuijun's background and talents, as well as our current good situation, the materials in Putai, the people of Hebei, and the full support of our Fang family, Shuijun can definitely stay and do some great work. You can have a career, and you don’t have to be controlled by others... Even if you have to join the Deposed Dragon Gang, you can still have your own business! You don’t have to be so aggrieved as you are today, being controlled by an assassin!"
"I can only accept your kindness." Hearing this, Li Ding finally smiled. "But Fang Erjiu Lang... there are some things you don't know at all... For example, Zhang Sanlang is more than just an assassin... You all think that he killed a Nanya Xianggong and came to rebel, but I know, He was really determined to bring peace to the world, so he wanted to rebel, so much so that he killed a Nanya Xianggong by the way."
"That's it. What kind of ability does Zhang Sanlang have to calm the world? Can he have the ability to form an army like Li Shuijun?" Fang Yanshi was furious for a moment, as if he couldn't be convinced.
"Zhang Sanlang." Li Ding raised his head with his hands behind his hands and smiled bitterly. "I have seen countless heroes in my life, such as the late emperor, Yang Bin and his son, Uncle Cao, and Xianggong Zhang... Also like Sima Erlong, like the female Phoenix of the Bai family, like the Nanyang Wu brothers, even more like Cheng Dalang, like you... before and after Young and old, civil and military nobles, they are all well-informed, right?"
"Li Shuijun's experience is truly rare." Fang Yanshi could only bow his head. "This also proves that Suicune is a hero in the world."
"Then let me tell you, among these people, Zhang Sanlang has three talents and virtues that can be said to be the best in the world, and he has three talents and virtues that can be said to be the best in the world."
Li Ding ignored the other party's sincere flattery and easily looked at the twin moons above his head and said something earth-shattering.
“The three first-rates are wisdom, practice, and benevolence…
"The first three things are that he sees things in the world like a candlelight, can easily get to the root, and has the overall situation in mind, which is clear to the sky and the earth. Others treat him as a chess piece, but he can always jump out of the chessboard to open up new paths.
“Secondly, being able to bend and stretch, being able to bend oneself in the market place or in an official office, with one book and one sword is enough to be indifferent to life, but once stretched out, like a real dragon rising up, daring to be the first in the world.
"The third one is the ability to recognize people and the ability to gather people...I won't go into details about this. It is really the best I have ever seen in my life."
At this point, Li Shuijun looked back and smiled in embarrassment: "Of course, there are many small problems, too numerous to mention. Being limited by one's origin, being cynical, and hating wealthy families are just one of them... But no matter what, how can I dare to deal with them? What about fighting? I'm just an ordinary person with a slightly stronger military."
Fang Yanshi wanted to say more, but he saw the other party waved his hand directly: "No need to say more, even if you are dissatisfied with Zhang Sanlang, I will go back to Dongdu... Because if the situation in the world really makes Zhang Sanlang powerless, That's nothing more than another hero between Guan and Long...but Zhang Sanlang has something to say over there."
Fang Yanshi waited for a while, finally sighed and turned around.
After a while, there was a sudden movement under Douzi Hill, and then there was a burst of croaking, and a large group of crows rose into the sky... Although a small number of them were scattered to other sides, a considerable number of them were driven towards the crows due to human beings. Go to the open space to the north.
In front of Douzi Post, in front of the completed troops, Zhang Xing, who had put on a set of Mingguang armor and was fully clothed, was startled. He led the yellow gelding and turned around to laugh with the others: "I thought Li Silang was just joking in the past... But Unexpectedly, this trick really worked."
Everyone was puzzled, so Zhang Xing had no choice but to explain: "Li Silang told me before that walnut shells are tied to the bird's feet, and smoldering charcoal cores are stuffed into the walnut shells to attack with fire...crows attack at night, Sparrows attack the city.”
Everyone was still puzzled.
Xiao Zhou came to ask seriously: "The crow carries fire, why should it stop?"
"Because my feet are hot." Zhang Xing laughed even more. "Crows swarm and sparrows are common. They are the least afraid of people. Once their feet are hot, most crows will fall off the trees and most sparrows will crawl into the eaves... But this time there are not so many flowers. It will take more time to travel ten miles. Let's get it right. Their feet burned, their feathers even ignited, and then they fell naturally into a plain with only the sorghum field and the wooden objects of the camp to stand on."
Only then did everyone wake up, but they were still a little confused.
"Let's go!" Zhang Xing became serious, and then took the horse one step forward. "The 'forwards' are quick, let's not get out of touch with them... Even if this strategy fails, we will still set fire to them."
"Master Zhang."
At this moment, Cheng Dalang suddenly led a horse forward and asked. "Do you have to go into battle in person for your rich body?"
"You can't avoid this." Zhang Xing responded seriously. "I am a boy from a humble family in the North. I have no prestige and I don't know much about military affairs. Fortunately, I still have some cultivation. If I don't go into battle to fight, how can I convince a true hero?"
Cheng Dalang nodded, and then put the reins in his hands over: "Mr. Zhang, since I have promised to join the Deposed Dragon Gang, I will be the big leader under you, the right dragon head. There must be no confusion between superiors and inferiors. This dragon colt , please come and take a ride.”
Zhang Xing took the reins and threw them to the other party again: "I have received the kindness, and I will give it to you again. I know that your cultivation is better than mine. When fighting in battle, it depends on your majesty, Cheng Dalang."
Cheng Zhili was so meticulous that he naturally knew that the most critical step had been taken, so he did not show any humility and led the horse over again. When the other party got on the yellow gelding, he also climbed on the dragon colt.
Immediately, about 4,000 people on horseback who had just been prepared slowly set off from Douzigang and headed directly for the Qinghe bandit camp where there were still more than 40,000 people more than ten miles away.
It was as if one was going to break ten.
A quarter of an hour later, a crow with shrunken legs landed directly on a huge wooden square couch, waking up the leader Zhang Jinsheng from his sleep.
ps: Good night everyone.
