"Did you catch that guerrilla?"
Zhao Wugu rode back with blood still dripping from the blade in his hand.
"This guy wanted to put on common people's clothes and get away. Our people found him in a house in the village." Deputy Captain Lu Liang kicked the man dressed as a farmer who was lying on the ground.
The man who was kicked shrank in fear.
Deputy captain Lu Liang continued: "He is as fat as a pig. How can ordinary people be so strong? Even if he pretends to be a commoner, he still has to choose a wealthy family in the village. I really thought that others would not recognize him if he put on two tattered clothes." .”
The clothes on the captured guerrilla general of Fubiao Camp were in tatters, and his cuffs and shoulders were obviously much shorter and narrower, especially his belly, which was very conspicuous even when he was slumped on the ground.
"It's good to catch him. Maybe we need to rely on this guy to enter Yangqu." Captain Zhao Wugu glanced at the man on the ground. He was dressed in a strange way. It was difficult not to see that there was something wrong with him.
Lu Liang raised his foot and kicked him again, and shouted coldly: "Have you heard what our captain said? Please cooperate with us in Yangqu in a while."
"I heard it, I heard it. I will definitely cooperate with this general." The captured guerrilla from Fubiao Camp cautiously glanced at Zhao Wugu on horseback.
Although he didn't know the other party, he could understand from the attitudes of the people around him that the thief in front of him would be the leader of the surrounding thief cavalry.
"Change him into suitable clothes and take him with you to Yangqu." Zhao Wugu said to Lu Liang, and then turned his horse's head to gather soldiers and horses to prepare for entering Yangqu.
At first, he just wanted to capture the general soldier Jie Shigong, but he didn't expect to encounter the Fubiao camp soldiers and horses from Yangqu on the way, which also made him want to capture Yangqu City.
"Let's go and change back to your original armor." Lu Liang said to the captured Fubiao camp guerrillas on the ground.
The other party stood up from the ground obediently, and was escorted by several cavalrymen from the Tiger Flag to change his clothes.
Lu Liang handed the man over to his subordinates and came to Zhao Wugu himself.
Glancing at the six to seven hundred prisoners from Fubiao Camp, he said, "What to do with these people? It's definitely inconvenient to carry them around, and it's easy to expose our whereabouts."
"Leave a team of people to guard them while our people change into their clothes." Zhao Wugu said.
Lu Liang thought for a while and said: "It's easy to change clothes, but what about the weapons? The weapons used are very different from theirs, and there are war horses. We have hundreds of horses, and this Fubiao camp is only five or six Ten riders, the difference is huge.”
"Weapons are easy to handle. We can get a few carts and load them up to serve as food and fodder for the army. We will leave all the extra war horses. We are cheating the city this time, and there are not many defenders in the city. As long as we enter Yangqu, Even if we only have a few hundred people, we can still capture the city." Zhao Wugu said.
After capturing the defeated soldiers of the Fubiao Battalion, the situation in Yangqu City was easily discovered.
An undefended Yangqu City, and the hundreds of dismounted cavalry he brought were also regular troops. He believed that as long as he could capture a gate of Yangqu, he would have a great chance of capturing Yangqu City.
Shanxi Chengxuan's political envoy Si Yamen and governor's Yamen are both in Yangqu City. Even if hundreds of people go to capture Yangqu City, he feels that this risk can be taken.
Not long after, the guerrilla general from Fubiao Camp was brought over.
He has been put on armor, and he finally has the toughness of a general.
"In order to look more like him, I asked someone to add two of his own soldiers." Lu Liang pointed at the other two prisoners brought over with the Fubiao Battalion guerrillas.
Zhao Wugu nodded.
A team of cavalry was left in the village to guard the prisoners of the Fubiao camp, and Zhao Wugu took the rest and rushed to Yangqu.
The guerrillas from Fubiao Battalion and two of his own soldiers were brought to the middle of the team. Although they also rode horses, the reins were in the hands of others, and they only had armor and no weapons, so they cooperated very well along the way.
The journey of more than ten miles is neither close nor far, and you can get there quickly if you ride a horse.
Because most of the cavalry had left their horses behind and could only walk on two legs now, they were a little slower. It was almost noon when they arrived at Yangqu.
"No, why are there so many people in front? Didn't it mean that Yangqu City Gate is only open for half a day?" Approaching Yangqu, Lu Liang observed the situation of Yangqu City through a monocular telescope.
Zhao Wugu also took a monocular to look at the situation in Yangqu City.
Monocular telescopes are usually specially equipped within the Tiger Flag at the level of captain, and the cavalry is equipped with at least one in the team.
Although it is troublesome to grind the lenses of monocular telescopes, and the output is not particularly high, after so many years of accumulation, the Ordnance Bureau of Tiger Character Banner has accumulated a lot of monocular telescopes, and a group of skilled craftsmen who make monocular telescopes.
If it weren't for the fact that this thing is of little use if only one person has it, the Ordnance Bureau could have a monocular telescope for every ten or so people.
"You lied to us?" Lu Liang moved his eyes away from the monocular and looked coldly at the Fubiao Battalion guerrillas in the team.
"No, no, I will never lie. The city gate of Yangqu is really only open for half a day. I can swear it." The guerrillas of Fubiao Camp waved their hands to defend themselves, and even did not hesitate to swear and curse.
At this time, I heard Zhao Wugu say: "He didn't lie to us. Something happened in Yangqu that we don't know about. Look carefully, everyone leaving Yangqu City is carrying big and small bags."
After hearing this, Lu Liang picked up the monocular telescope again and started observing.
"Really, it looks like they fled outside the city to seek refuge. It seems that Mr. Jie Shigong and others should have fled back to Yangqu yesterday and brought back the news of the fall of Tianmen Pass." Lu Liang said.
Zhao Wugu raised the corner of his mouth and said with a playful expression: "It seems there is no need to deceive the city. Lu Liang, arrange for someone to send a message to the army behind and tell them about the situation in Yangqu. The others will follow me and don't let Yangqu go." The high officials in Qu City have escaped."
With that said, he took the lead in urging his horse forward.
Their cavalry only came to Yangqu first, and behind them, there was the third combat division rushing to Yangqu from Tianmen Pass.
A tiger-shaped banner cavalryman in the team separated from the team and rode away along the way he came.
Zhao Wugu led dozens of riders to the outside of Yangqu City and stopped the convoy escaping from Yangqu City.
Those who fled Yangqu with a convoy at this time were either rich or noble.
"Let's go, why don't the team leave? Go and have a look. If there are any civilians, please send them away to me." In the city gate, an official sedan was blocked inside.
The officials in the sedan looked anxious when they saw the team stopped.
"Sir, don't worry, I'll go right away." The boy who was following the sedan hurriedly squeezed out of the city.
