On a cliff in a mountain city.
A dilapidated camp stood there, the scenery along the way was desolate, and crows were chirping in the sky from time to time.
The mountain where this camp is located is surrounded by caves. From time to time on the mountain road, you can see peasant soldiers of the Zhongxiang Rebel Army and various miscellaneous soldiers transporting grain and grass, as well as various porcelain, gold and silver. Silver jewelry, and drinks.
It turns out that this mountain is literally the famous Tianwang Mountain, which is the main base of Zhong Xiang's rebel army.
Tianwang Mountain is located 500 kilometers northeast of the capital of Huaxia. It is a relatively dangerous mountain in Huaxia.
This is also the place where Zhongxiang's rebel army has the most frequent activities.
In the camp of the Zhongxiang Rebel Army in Tianwang Mountain, the leader of the gang is a man with a green dragon tattoo on his face and fierce eyes. His name is Cao Liangpeng.
Cao Liangpeng used to be a businessman specializing in selling paint in Lin'an City. Later, because the raw material origin of the family business was illegally occupied by people from the Lu Jianguo Group of the Hanyang Dynasty, Cao Liangpeng's family business plummeted and he embarked on a revolution. path of.
Therefore, four years ago, Cao Liangpeng led a peasant uprising army of 2,000 people and successfully attacked the large-scale caravan sent by the Hanyang Dynasty to the Manchu Heavenly Kingdom, and successfully plundered a large amount of gold and silver vessels, porcelain, tea, silk, and Countless gold and silver.
At the same time, in less than two and a half years, Cao Liangpeng led his Zhongxiang rebel army to attack the Manchurian Kingdom's caravan again, plundering a large amount of mink skins, animal skins, pig iron, ginseng, horses, and many more Sorghum red wine.
In this way, Cao Liangpeng seemed to have started a cheating life. In just six years, the number of Zhongxiang's rebels increased from 800 at the beginning to 50,000.
The generals under Cao Liangpeng are respectively. . .
The steel-toothed wolf general, Lin Jianzhong.
Huang Chenyi, a Taoist and Confucian scholar.
The Little Overlord, Li Zhicheng.
Thunder Tiger, Wang Yufeng.
The white-faced strong man, Chen Yu.
Fighting Dragon Heikui, Zhao Wenlong.
The jade-faced oiran, Guo Bimin.
These generals and counselors all have strange looks, and they are known as the Seven Monsters of Tianwang Mountain under Cao Liangpeng.
In the main command room of the camp, the Palace of the Heavenly King.
Cao Liangpeng sat upright, holding a rare small lizard in his hand.
I saw the six monsters of Tianwang Mountain gathered together in the Tianwang Hall. Wait, why are there only six monsters? It turns out that's because among the previous seven monsters, the Thunder Tiger King Yufeng had already died in the battle.
As for the miscellaneous soldiers who escaped back, there are still 15,000 skirmishers.
Cao Liangpeng was furious when he learned that Wang Yufeng had died in the battle.
"His grandma, who killed Wang Yufeng, and caused us to lose another brother!"
Cao Liangpeng slammed the table and reprimanded angrily, his eyes showing blazing fire.
The soldiers who escaped from the audience explained in fear: "King Huitian is a general named Pan Gangfeng. The rain of arrows shot by his cavalry was so powerful that our gang leader Wang Yufeng was killed before he could escape. The arrow killed him."
Suddenly, the little bully Li Zhicheng on the side heard this, immediately stepped forward, grabbed the soldier and slapped him boldly.
"Fuck you, uncle, you didn't protect the gang leader. This is the fault of you as miscellaneous soldiers!"
Li Zhicheng's slap made a snapping sound!
Moreover, Li Zhicheng was extremely arrogant in his criticism of his subordinates.
"Okay, okay, Li Zhicheng, please step aside and let me interrogate them properly!"
The person who came out to speak was the Taoist scholar Huang Chenyi. Huang Chenyi was very tall and wore a pair of glasses, but he still liked to hold and shake the feather fan. He had a scholarly air about him. He was from Tianwang Mountain. The counselor of the Zhongxiang Rebel Army.
Huang Chenyi walked forward unhurriedly, looked at the soldier, and said straight to the point: "During the battle, did you ever see the enemy's formation clearly?"
"Yes, yes, military advisor, we attacked from the four gates of the camp, but they attacked directly from the north gate, because the opponents were all strong and strong Tiefutu. As soon as they rushed out, they attacked our soldiers and horses to the north. The formation broke up, and then a gap appeared in the large army on the north side, and the opponent's horse archers came out from the north gate, went all the way around to the back of our large army on the south side, and directly fired arrows to kill Gang Leader Wang."
The soldier boy recalled it and quickly explained a series of details.
When Huang Chenyi heard this, he touched his chin, thought for a moment, then waved his feather fan and said, "Oh no, Brother Cao, this time General Pan Gangfeng must have an extra counselor by his side."
When Chen Yu heard this, he stood up quickly and said, "How do you know that the general of the officers and soldiers opposite has an additional adviser!?"
"Brother Cao, King of Huitian, this kind of fighting method that likes to carry out sneak attacks and break through the enemy's weak points is definitely not what General Pan Gangfeng can do."
Huang Chenyi explained respectfully.
"Oh, if there is such a thing, where do you start talking about it?"
Cao Liangpeng said arrogantly.
"King of Heaven, when encountering this kind of situation, the enemy general would divide his troops into four equal parts and stand at the entrance of each camp. However, he concentrated his energy and divided the troops into different types. Then carry out the attack with a clear division of labor. This behavior is typical of a character who knows the attributes of soldiers and horses very well!" Huang Chenyi explained objectively and analytically.
Suddenly, when Zhao Wenlong heard this, he quickly touched the beard on his chin and said: "Well, it's a bit interesting. Generally, those officers and soldiers are fully armed. They think that all arms are fully developed, but this time he Well, change the method and let some light cavalry without armor on the war horses run directly to the rear to attack our position. This is obviously a move that can only be done by a strategist who knows the battle very well."
"In my opinion, the top priority is that we should use the plundered pig iron to make all kinds of materials, weapons and armor we need to improve the combat effectiveness of our army. This will also allow us to compete with the officers and soldiers! "Chen Yu explained.
"No, don't worry. I want to meet Pan Gangfeng and his counselor another day. I want to see what magical powers he has." Cao Liangpeng waved his hand and said.
At this moment, in the Longxiao Forbidden Army camp.
Pan Gangfeng is secretly designing an armor in his room.
Suddenly, Yin Xiaoshuai walked in.
"General, what are you doing?"
"Oh, Master Yin, it's you! I plan to make a special armor and give it to you."
"Oh, is it like this? Show me!"
As soon as Yin Xiaoshuai finished speaking, he took the drawing from Pan Gangfeng's hand and took a closer look. What caught Yin Xiaoshuai's eyes was a pair of golden suozi armor with mountain patterns, and another one staring at a Suan Ni pattern on his head. Phoenix-winged helmet.
"What kind of armor is this!?"
Yin Xiaoshuai was very excited, but asked in confusion.
"This armor, I named it the Great Han General Eagle Dragon Armor! As long as you achieve a certain level of military merit, I will reward you with this armor. But it is a pity that I am currently using this armor. It's planned to be made, but I don't have the materials at hand at the moment! So can you help me find these materials?" General Pan Gangfeng explained unhurriedly.
"Tell me, what materials do you need?" Yin Xiaoshuai said happily.
"20 pounds of black iron, 30 pounds of pig iron, and some animal skins."
"Okay, I will help you find these things myself, so just feel free to help me build this armor!"
"Let me tell you where the places you should go are. However, the journey is more dangerous, but I believe you can help me find these materials."
"Don't worry, General Pan. I will definitely complete the goal I set. Of course, your kindness moved me."
"Hahahaha, I am like a fish in water. I got a consultant like you. I really didn't know that I had to cultivate this blessing in eight lifetimes!"
"General Pan, you are over-rewarding!"
So, on the next morning, Yin Xiaoshuai put on his weapons, mounted his bay-red horse, and set off all the way, heading towards the places mentioned by General Pan Gangfeng.
