The situation Wu Shuo faced was desperate.
There are wolves arrayed in front, and tigers chasing behind.
But it can be seen at this moment that General Wu still has experience in fighting.
He almost immediately analyzed his only possibility of survival - to turn around and face the young general.
This is not an overestimation of one's abilities with blood rushing to the forehead, but a reasonable judgment made in an instant.
If he charges any further, he will be shot into a sieve by crossbow arrows. This objective desperate situation cannot be made up for by bravery and experience.
When he turned back to fight, the young general was separated from his main force, and now he was surrounded by his own troops.
I was fighting with him in the same place. The enemy's crossbowmen were wary and did not dare to shoot arrows rashly.
You don't have to win the battle, as long as you can fight back and forth for a few rounds, you can regain the confidence of your own troops around you!
Once your troops realize that the enemy is not invincible, they join you in besieging this young general who is surrounded...
Two fists can't beat four hands, so what can he do no matter how brave he is?
As long as he can capture the bandit leader alive and then steal the opponent's top-quality Wusun horse, he still has hope of survival!
Thinking of this, Wu Shuo flicked his horse's head and came back with a halberd in his hand: "You little thief, don't be arrogant, do you dare to leave your name?"
General Wu wants to use his battlefield experience to teach this young man a lesson.
The battlefield is not just about bravery.
"I am..."
Liu Chan pinched the horse's belly, and Wusun Ma, who seemed to have reached his limit, sprinted again!
The sudden change in speed caused Wu Shuo to stab the air with a halberd, causing a fatal flaw.
"Song Jiang..."
Liu Chan's spear lying in front of him was like a poisonous snake spitting a message. It thrust out violently when the two horses crossed each other, and penetrated directly into Wu Shuo's chest.
Hot blood, accompanied by Wu Shuo's stunned and confused expression, shot out from his chest...
"Song Gongming is right!!"
Song Gongming is also...
The roar echoed in the valley, and Wu Shuo's body was lifted high on a spear by Liu Chan.
Blood dripped from his head and face, and he stood alone in the enemy formation, like a fierce god alive.
Wu Shuo's pre-war analysis was very reasonable, and there were no major logical flaws.
There's just a small problem here.
That is the strength of General Wu, whether he can support him and Liu Chan in a back-and-forth battle...
…
Clang.
Not only is the way out blocked, but now his own general is being picked on a spear by the enemy in such a shocking way...
The surviving Wu troops in the valley all lost their will to fight.
They joined the army just to make a living, and some were even forcibly recruited.
He has no lofty ideals and does not know why he is fighting.
A salary of one hundred dollars a month is being deducted at every turn. What a waste of life...
But within a moment, the sound of weapons being discarded could be heard endlessly, and the Wu army in the valley fell to their knees, all wailing and begging for surrender.
Liu Chan threw Wu Shuo's body out, rode his horse and speared, and returned slowly.
Chai Rong hurried over with several village leaders who were completely convinced. He knelt down on one knee in front of the horse willingly and clasped his fists with his hands: "General Gongming is unparalleled in wisdom and bravery. I am convinced."
Several village leaders bowed down one after another, lowered their heads and clasped their fists: "I'm convinced."
"General Gongming is unparalleled in wisdom and bravery!"
A few bandits nearby who were smart and knew how to cause trouble shouted loudly.
Soon the cheers of the bandits spread throughout the valley.
"Incomparable in wit and invincible in bravery!"
…
In the battle in the valley, Liu Chan and Shanyue's coalition forces had more than 1,500 troops, and Wu Shuo's army had 1,000 troops.
More than a hundred coalition soldiers were killed, dozens were seriously injured, and more than 300 were slightly injured.
The Wu army lost more than 500 soldiers, and more than 400 people were asked to surrender. Less than 100 people took advantage of the chaos to escape.
It can be called a great victory.
Among them, 0 people under Liu Chan were killed, 0 were seriously injured, and more than 100 were slightly injured.
This horrific casualty ratio once again made several village leaders, including Chai Rong, stunned.
This cannot be achieved simply by stacking armor.
After this battle, the name and deeds of General Song Jiang, Song Gongming and Ming Dynasty spread more and more widely through bandits and fleeing Wu soldiers.
He has become a legendary figure among people in the mountains and rivers of Wudi, and even the spiritual leader of many people.
This was something Liu Chan never expected at this time...
As for the captured spoils, Chai Rong and others asked Liu Chan to distribute them, and said that even if Liu Chan took them all, they would have no objection.
It's not that these bandits suddenly became generous.
But they are shrewd and have understood that compared with these things, the most important thing at the moment is to hold on to "Song Jiang"'s thigh.
As long as you follow General Gongming, you will not be short of these things in the future.
But Liu Chan was much more generous than they imagined.
He only took half of the money and grain from the seized ordnance and supplies as supplies, as well as Wu Shuo's Yunnan horse.
As for the other leather armor weapons, except for the necessary arrows, the rest were all distributed to several cottages.
Even the more than 400 surrendered soldiers were not retained and all were allocated to them.
The village leaders were deeply moved for a moment. They were both wise and brave, and they did not want to be alone. They were generous and generous.
Isn’t this the enlightened master sent by God?
What do they lack at this time? Isn't it money, food, manpower, equipment and weapons that they lack?
General Gongming gave too much...
Chai Rong and the village leaders exchanged glances and knew that the others had the same idea as him.
Several people tacitly established the core leadership position of "Song Jiang" in their hearts.
And decided to resolutely support the leadership of General Song Gongming. Only General Song Gongming can save Shan Yue.
Of course, in their eyes, General Song Gongming distributed this way just because there were too many ordnances, too much to be transported back to Jingzhou through Sun Wu's checkpoint.
It would be better to go along with the flow and arm these mountains and rivers to cause more trouble to Sun Wu.
As for the soldiers who were surrendered by the Wu army... their homes are here, their families and relatives are here, and there are even many veterans among them. It is almost impossible for me to reform them ideologically.
No matter how much energy you put in, you can't make them as loyal and elite as your subordinates.
No need to absorb it.
…
Two days later, the large group of people returned to Chaijiazhai in Wufang Mountain with the seized money, grain and luggage.
"General Gongming, what should we do next?" Chai Rong's eyes lit up and he cupped his hands.
Several other village leaders also looked at Liu Chan expectantly.
At this time, they had also learned that their old nest had been destroyed and they were now homeless.
But it doesn't matter, they still have "Song Jiang".
Everyone hopes that "Song Jiang" will lead the expansion of the Wufangshan Chai Village, unite everyone into one village, change the name to a domineering one, and elect General Song Gongming as the leader of the new village.
I even thought of a nickname. General Gongming will be called Tianwang, and they will be the five-direction god general...
However, Liu Chan broke their illusions in the next second. He only said three words: "It's time to go."
Everyone was stunned.
Walk?
We had just won such a big victory and our morale was at its peak. Why did we leave?
It's just that today is different from the past. In the hearts of a few people, General Gongming is a god-like existence.
He said it was time to leave, so of course he had his reasons.
When Liu Chan saw several people waiting for his words, he didn't show off: "It was just a small fight before, but now we have eaten two thousand Sun Wu people in one breath... Do you think the government will let it go?"
As soon as these words came out, several village leaders were immediately disheartened.
Yes, we must be on guard against Guan Yu in the direction of Jingzhou, and the border troops cannot move.
However, Sun Wu does not have other elites.
If the Chinese army comes, or the children of aristocratic families lead a large number of family private troops...
Can they really defend Chaijiazhai?
"Furthermore, although Wufang Mountain can be said to be easy to defend and difficult to attack, it lacks depth, has a single terrain, insufficient water sources, too little cultivated land in the surrounding areas and on the mountain, and has no copper and iron minerals, which is very detrimental to long-term development."
Liu Chan's few words stunned several village leaders.
Especially Chai Rong, General Gongming only stayed here for such a short time, how could he know Wufang Mountain better than himself?
Not to mention the other village owners, they just want to be bandits.
A few more years of leisurely life, sleeping with a few more beautiful women, living happily and earning money every day, until I can no longer bear it anymore and stretch my neck to death...
Is there so much to pay attention to here?
Liu Chan looked at the confused looks on their faces and smiled confidently: "It doesn't matter if you don't know how to be a bandit, I can teach you."
