Yi Dougu's move to take refuge with Li Zhi had always been filled with speculation. Now that he saw Li Zicheng's defeat at the gate of Kaifeng, his thoughts came to life again.
That night, after the discussion in King Chuang's camp was completed and they had dinner together and returned to their own camp, they summoned his dog-headed military advisor Hu Daoren, the second master Hun Mo Wang, and the third master Du Youwei to come to discuss the matter.
There was a red charcoal fire burning in the military tent, and wine and meat were all available. Yi Dougu was not full in the Chuangwang camp. He really found it difficult to swallow such a bland meal, so he only pretended to do so.
Now that he had returned to his military tent, he felt a little more comfortable. He sat directly on a woolen mattress. There were roast chicken, stewed meat, and warm rice wine on a short table in front of him.
The second head of the family, Hun Demon King, was a rough man. He was originally a bricklayer. He built a house for a wealthy family and disliked the lack of reward money. So he got a gang of scoundrels to sneak in at night, slaughtered nine members of the family, and raped them. He killed the family's only young daughter, robbed the property, and then fled to the mountains.
A year later, he joined Yi Dou Gu. He was ruthless, greedy and lustful, and left no one alive. He quickly emerged under Yi Dou Gu. Although he was cruel and rough, he respected Yi Dou Gu very much, so he sat on the second palm. From his home position, he was in charge of a group of nearly a thousand thieves.
He was used to being arrogant and extravagant. He couldn't stand the rules set by Li Zicheng for the first time, so he said: "Master, we see that King Li Chuang is not doing well here either. Brothers are working hard to survive." After the city of Luoyang was captured, those good things were controlled by the people they broke into the camp.
We are not allowed to eat by ourselves, but are only given bits and pieces, and we can't even drink the hot soup. These days are becoming more and more bleak. In our opinion, we might as well take advantage of the current opportunity and run south. Go and visit some of his big cities and have a great time. "
Yi Dougu was munching on a chicken leg, but his eyes were looking at his military advisor, Taoist Hu. His military advisor was originally a Taoist priest in a Taoist temple in southern Shaanxi. He was kidnapped and made a military advisor in front of the tent.
He just took a sip of rice wine and when he saw Yi Dougu looking at him, he said slowly: "We are here to help King Li Chuang conquer the west of Henan Province. We are not here to defect. Unlike those local thieves in Henan Province, we are supposed to be here. You can come and go freely and find your own way at any time.
However, King Li Chuang was unable to conquer Kaifeng, and the army had just suffered a defeat in the north of the city. If the chief executive abandoned King Li Chuang at this time and led everyone to find another way out, it would be inappropriate both emotionally and rationally. "
Yi Dougu put down the drumstick at this time and said: "The military advisor is right. During the discussion tonight, King Li Chuang also intends to withdraw his troops. We are not in a hurry. When he decides to withdraw, we will work with him." I just want to go to southern Henan alone."
He took a sip of rice wine and asked Du Youwei: "Lao San, have all the brothers who escaped from the crock pot been settled?"
Du Youwei, the third leader, is less than thirty years old this year. He has been with him since the Yidou Valley uprising, which has been nearly ten years.
This Du Youwei is not powerful and tall, but he is extremely brave in fighting. He is very capable on both horse and step. In addition to riding and shooting, he can also jump up and down on galloping horses, so he has won a The flower name is "Tiaojian Tiger"!
He was the most loyal to Yi Dou Gu and won Yi Dou Gu's trust, so over the years Du Youwei had been commanding the most elite army of more than 400 cavalry veterans.
At this time, when Yi Dou Gu asked about this, he quickly put down the steamed meat in his hand and replied: "Everything is settled. It's such a pity that the more than 3,000 people on the Crock Pot side have dispersed like this!"
Yi Dou Gu's face was full of regret, and he said with some confusion: "Brother Crock Pot has three thousand troops, even if he is facing Madman He, he can escape unscathed. Why shouldn't we all escape?" The army is in disarray!"
He then took a sip of wine and asked Du Youwei: "Can I get some truth from the brothers who escaped? How did Crock Pot and the others disappear in a single battle?"
Du Youwei replied: "It is said that the cavalry of the official army is very strong and has been intercepting the outside. There are not a few infantrymen running out at all. The only people who come to our side are the cavalry around the crockpot. It took more than 500 people to escape." Less than a hundred people.”
He seemed to remember something, put down the wine bowl again, and continued: "That's right. According to a leader who escaped, there was a team of elite cavalry in the army, all covered with armor. Even their horses were covered in armor, and they couldn't shoot arrows. Wounded, a knife cannot kill him.
They were rushing all the way, and their cavalry only met each other once, and they were rushed to pieces. There were also officers and soldiers riding around to intercept them. Many brothers were chased and killed by the officers and soldiers on the way to escape. "
"Are you saying that the official army sent infantry directly to attack the formation, while the cavalry only intercepted it from the outside?"
The second master, the Demon King, had a look of disbelief on his face and continued: "Isn't this leader of the army stupid? This is too fucking weird!"
Yi Dougu glanced at him, shook his head and said: "This is called self-confidence. I am not simple. Fortunately, King Li Chuang sent a few of our brothers to attack the south of the city, otherwise..."
He suddenly stopped when he said this. His whole body was frozen there as if he had been cast a "body-fixing spell", but his face was ashen and even his lips were trembling slightly.
"Dang!" There was a crisp and fragrant sound.
It turned out that the wine bowl in the hands of the third master Du Youwei fell to the ground. He suddenly stood up and shouted: "No..."
At this moment, the felt curtain at the entrance of the military tent was suddenly opened, and a bandit rushed in in a panic, shouting: "Master, the army is attacking at night..."
At the same time, the noise outside the military tent was also heard when the felt curtain was raised. Everyone looked panicked. Military advisor Hu Daoren trembled and said: "No, why bother to go far away from the near and go around to the south of the city?" …”
Both the Demon King and Du Youwei shouted loudly: "Brother..."
Yi Dou Gu also stood up suddenly, threw the wine bowl on the ground with great force, and shouted: "Fuck it, no matter who it is, do it with his mother!"
…………
It turned out that Chen De and the others did not attack the camp gate of Yidou Valley first. He stopped about fifty or sixty steps outside the camp gate. With the weak firelight at the camp gate, he could vaguely see that there were only thirty thieves guarding the camp. here.
He was afraid that there were still bandits inside the camp gate and that he could not open the camp gate for a while. At that time, the cavalry group was not allowed to rush in, and the night attack would lose its surprise, so he ordered more than ten servants to take advantage of the cover of night and march 20 steps to the left of the camp gate. Touched outside.
When this group of Chen Yongfu's servants reached the camp wall, they could actually hear the grunting of the bandit soldiers in the camp. They were so frightened that they quickly held their breath and gently helped each other climb over the wall and the four of them got in.
Their target was not the sleeping thieves, so they quietly passed through the gaps where they lay horizontally and vertically, ran along the camp wall and touched the camp gate.
