But Chang Yu was already murderous. How could he let these thieves go so easily? He chased them with a knife in hand. He was wearing a battle armor and holding a long knife. Although it was his first time to kill an enemy in battle, he was extremely brave and could kill enemies on the battlefield. The arena competition is different. You don't need to pay attention to any technical skills. You just need to swing the sword and do it in a big way. The winner lies in the momentum!
I saw him rushing into the enemy group with a simple sword in his hand, rushing left and right like crazy, slashing and slashing, like a god descending. Those thieves had long been frightened and had no intention of fighting when their leader was killed. But when they encounter him at this moment, it is almost likely to be a disaster. , just running away.
Chang Yu was so brave. When Chunxiang, Cheng Ming and others saw it, they immediately abandoned their horses and led their troops to pursue him.
The bandit troops who had previously been ambushing both sides rushed down the hillside with an order from Bearded Beard and started fighting with some of the Tengxiang Guards and some of the eunuch troops led by Chen Zhong.
The Tengxiang guards had all been out and seen the world, killed people and shed blood. Although they were nervous but not timid when facing the bandits rushing down the mountain, they dared to face them with their knives.
But the eunuch army was lagging behind in this regard. Although they practiced day and night, they only had fights with some gangsters. This was the first time that they actually used a knife to kill people. They were not only nervous but also scared.
At this time, the role of the soldier comes into play!
Fan Jiaqian did not follow Chang Yu in the charge. He was sitting on the two wings commanding the counterattack against the archers on the mountain. At this time, he could see that his subordinates were nervous, so he shouted: "Why don't you just kill someone? If you don't kill him, he will kill you. They are just thieves." , It’s like killing a chicken, brothers, don’t be underestimated by others, don’t lose your status to Eunuch Chang!”
Others naturally refer to the Jinyi Guards, Fujun Guards and Tengxiang Guards besides the eunuch army!
There is a saying that the more inferior a person is, the stronger his self-esteem is and the more afraid he is of being looked down upon by others!
Eunuchs are a group with absolutely low self-esteem!
Self-esteem is also very strong!
right! Just killing a few thieves, the eunuch soldiers held their steel knives tightly and watched the thieves rushing down to cheer each other up. Although they were still nervous, their fear dissipated a lot.
Finally done it!
People's fear and nervousness are all staged, just like a fight. You will be nervous before the fight starts, but once you start fighting, you just want to beat the other person. All the nervousness and fear are gone, and once the coward shows up, the one who loses will definitely lose. !
This is the saying goes: When encountering each other on a narrow road, the brave prevails!
Fighting is very similar to fighting, except that the purpose of fighting is not to end the opponent's life. After the close encounter, the eunuch army went from a tense and stalemate fight at the beginning to a clear advantage after the blood was exhausted. After all, these eunuchs were all jumped out of the palace by Chang Yu. The young, brave and powerful big man cannot be compared to these thieves in single fights and group fights.
Even though these thieves were experienced in fighting, their little advantage was lost in a blink of an eye thanks to their physical advantages and the protection of their armor.
Especially when some thieves suddenly discovered that their leader had suddenly disappeared. The brothers in front were being chased by officers and soldiers all over the mountain. They immediately knew that it was over!
A group of dragons has no leader. The dragon is a dragon in the sky.
Look at these officers and soldiers getting braver and braver as they fight, and there are still hundreds of people over there (the Jinyi guards and the Fujun guards guarding the silver car) who are watching but not taking action. How can they still have the intention to fight again? They run away after a few whistles!
escape?
The thieves suddenly fled, making the eunuch army seem at a loss. They just felt like they had run away, so they all looked towards the Fan family!
Fan Jiaqian was also a little surprised by the sudden retreat of the rebel army. He glanced at Chang Yu a few times and suddenly realized something. He looked at each other again and Li Zhong, and they both said in unison: "Chase"
Grass! Seeing the thieves being chased all over the mountains and plains, Tang Potian, who had always been at the rear, kept clapping his fists and grinning. He was so disappointed that he could not catch up with such a good thing!
Wu Mengming's face had warmed up at this time. Seeing the eagerness of his men around him, he was also a little moved. After all, Chang Yu just said that a thief would cost ten taels of silver. As long as he got close to him, he could both earn money and share the work. Why not? for.
Just when he was about to order the Jin Yiwei to join the battle, he suddenly caught a glimpse of Tang Potian's appearance and immediately woke up!
Chang Yu was a man who knew rewards and punishments clearly. He ordered the army to guard the rear of the palace and the imperial guards to guard the silver chariot. Tang Potian had such a good relationship with him that he didn't dare to act rashly. If he joined the battle group on impulse, he might be killed by Chang Yu later. He was slapped with an AWOL hat, and the least he could do was scold him. After all, he didn't look good when he blew his nose and slapped his face while sleeping in the car before!
Yes, let’s watch the show honestly.
This battle only lasted twenty minutes, and the leader of the thieves was killed at the beginning.
Chang Yu held a knife and sat on a big rock on the hillside, breathing heavily. Many soldiers around him were still hunting down the fleeing thieves.
Facts have proved that these thieves have very few combat capabilities, but they can escape over mountains and ridges as if they were walking on flat ground. This is something Chang Yu really feels ashamed of.
Looking at the scene in front of him, he felt suddenly like a dream, and even more ridiculous. Was this bearded monkey sent to give points? It was so vulnerable!
After Chang Yu took a breath, he stood up again with his knife, but he did not join the battle group. This kind of pursuit all over the mountains and fields was not very successful. After all, the thieves were as hard to catch when they climbed up the mountain as loaches in the water.
What's more important is that he just rushed into the enemy's formation and killed at least a dozen people in a wild attack. This record is enough to brag about.
After watching it for a while, Chang Yu sighed inwardly. There was indeed a qualitative difference between experienced drivers and novices. They were also chasing down thieves. The Tengxiang guards led by Cheng Ming were all very capable and even dared to fight alone. On the other hand, the eunuch army also spared no effort. , but I always feel that I can't let go, I am a little constrained by my lack of confidence, and only three or five people dare to intercept one. Although this tactic is more effective and safer, it still lacks a sense of domineering!
Seeing that the thieves were fleeing further and further away, some even reaching the mountainside, and it was obvious that the pursuers were exhausted, Chang Yu ordered the troops to withdraw and count the losses.
After a while, the damage report was presented to him: forty-six people were injured in the Tengxiang Guards, 23 people were injured in the Eunuch Army, four horses were killed, and seven were injured. No one in the entire team was killed!
Chang Yu punched his fists hard and took a long breath. As long as no one died, he also knew that the reason why the damage was so small this time was that the enemy's trap was discovered in time in front of him and he did not completely enter the encirclement. Secondly, there was the possibility of the enemy army. He was overconfident, perhaps thinking that just posing could scare away the officers and soldiers, so he just fired some arrows to create pressure, but did not cause much damage.
When the battle began, with the leader of the thieves being crushed to death by a horse, the main force in front had no decent confrontation at all. It can be said that they fled from the beginning.
Although the two wings of the bandits rushed down the hillside and fought for a while, they encountered the eunuch army and the Tengxiang Guards who were far superior to them in strength, equipment and even size. They began to flee for their lives within a few minutes of confrontation.
"Eunuch Chang, in this battle, a total of 113 thieves were killed, 17 were captured, more than 200 weapons, 33 bows, more than 70 arrows, and 6 horses." A small banner of a Jin Yiwei said to Chang Yu reported that Jin Yiwei was assigned by Chang Yu to take the spoils lightly.
Chang Yu showed a smile, then his face turned cold: "Keep no prisoners alive, kill them!"
Seventeen thieves knelt by the road, begging for mercy in a low voice with fear on their faces. However, it did not move Chang Yu's heart. Then he gave an order, raised his knife and dropped it. The executioners were the eunuch army!
Previously, Chang Yu promised to kill one thief and reward him with 10 taels of silver, so the heads of the 113 thieves who were killed have been placed on the roadside. Together with the 17 people who were just killed, there are a total of 130 heads. .
As for the beard, the body was trampled by horses in a terrible way, but the head was still there. Although many people wanted to chop it off to take credit, everyone who participated in the war knew that in fact this man was killed by Chang Yu. No one who is greedy for money would dare to risk it. achievement.
Those who do what they say will be rewarded. I am afraid no one is as active as Chang Yu in fulfilling his promise, so he did something that surprised Wu Mengming and even everyone, opening the box and releasing money!
Yes, Chang Yu ordered the silver car to be opened to directly collect the pay to reward the soldiers who killed the enemy!
This is absolutely unprecedented and even punishable by death!
What is salary? Public funds! Even the warlords who dominate one side dare not use it so blatantly!
However, Chang Yu took action, and it was so blatant. He promised to reward the soldiers and immediately cashed it in, and the money was also from the court. There was nothing wrong with it!
One hundred and thirty heads, one thousand three hundred taels of silver, plus a subsidy of ten taels for each injured soldier, a total of more than 2,200 taels.
Wu Mengming's expression was indescribable, but the soldiers who participated in the battle were extremely excited. This kind of reward that could be cashed immediately was almost unprecedented. This was the first time I heard about it. This Eunuch Chang was really honest and straightforward and kept his promise. As for those who were injured, The soldier felt a little more touching towards Chang Yu. The reason was very simple. Being injured these days was almost equivalent to abandoning a son. It was easy to be discharged from the army, but serious to be dead.
pension? What are you thinking!
There are merits and rewards, and responsibilities must be pursued. After ordering the team to reorganize, Chang Yu gathered Wu Mengming and the leaders of the guards to inquire about the cause and effect. Why was he so careless that he almost became a turtle in the urn?
Cheng Ming said that the Jin Yiwei had been exploring the road ahead and reported nothing unusual at any time. Several spies were seen running back in front of the incident, warning that there was an ambush ahead, but at this time half of the team was trapped by the opponent...
How did the thieves know that officers and soldiers were here and ambush them in advance?
Wu Mengming said that several villagers were previously found...
When Chang Yu heard this, he almost yelled. There are mountains here. How many miles can the villagers in the mountains go over the mountains to cut firewood?
It's obviously the opponent's spy who is easy to attack!
But the other party could tell the name and location of the village, so he couldn’t be kidnapped right then and there without proof! Wu Mengming retorted, but Chang Yu was speechless for a moment.
Then Wu Mengming said again, the other party claimed to be from Laolongbei Kowloon Village twenty miles away. Even if those villagers were thieves and spies, how could they return so quickly to inform them of the forty-mile mountain road back and forth, and then only ten miles away? There is an ambush outside, maybe the opponent can fly!
Another unsolved mystery.
Maybe that Yao'er Village is the den of thieves, why don't we kill the general and fetch it to him now, Tang Potian said with a roar.
This trip was to collect wages and not to suppress bandits. Chang Yu did not want to cause more trouble and immediately ordered the team to continue moving forward.
However, in order to prevent another accident, Jin Yiwei was ordered to send five teams to the front to explore the road, and his confidant Li Tiezhu was ordered to lead an army of twenty eunuchs to the front.
After this battle, the team was delayed here for more than half an hour. It was impossible to reach Xuan Mansion before dark. Unless they rushed twice as fast, it was not realistic.
In a moment, the team left, leaving only bloodstains on the ground, corpses in the grass on the hillside, and one hundred and thirty heads piled neatly on the side of the road.
I'm afraid that in the future, pedestrians will not dare to walk on the mountain road in Yantong Mountain, and thieves will not dare to enter.
