Chapter 6 - Lifting of troops
I heard from Zhang Tie that Shi Xie had secretly ordered the county magistrate to kill us. I was shocked. Is this news reliable? " Zhang Tie replied, "There's no mistake! They would rather believe it than not! We can't help it if we don't want to! It's the opposite! " Li Xiong then added: "Even if Shi Xie can tolerate us, his brother Shi Wu cannot! Officials forced citizens to rebel, and the citizens had no choice but to rebel! At worst, if we fail, we can just take over the mountain and plant the grass! "
I revealed a worried expression and said, "Shi Xie has the entire Jiao Prefecture! With our power alone, how can we fight against him! " Zhang Tie said angrily: "If a man dies, then so be it! What was there to be afraid of! "Why do you have to live like a horse under someone else? It's better to fight like this and die with dignity even if you have to die!" Li Xiong asked curiously: "Fourth brother, when did you become so greedy and afraid of death?!" I replied, "But I have my family! "How can I make them do it on their own …"
Zhang Tie said angrily, "You don't have to do it! Fan Li and the rest will definitely not be a burden to you! " Li Xiong sighed, and said: "Everyone has their own aspirations, if you don't join, we won't blame you!" Chen Zhi watched carefully from the side, not making a sound.
I sighed and said, "Now we have to go all out! We are good brothers. Since someone forced us to such a state, we have no choice but to give up! " Zhang Tie and Li Xiong patted my shoulder and said, "Good brother!"
Li Xiong and Zhang Tie then asked Chen Zhi, "What about you?" Chen Zhi thought about not replying.
I hit my left palm with my right hand and shouted, "I've thought of a way to kill the county magistrate. We wanted to collude with the lead county magistrate and kill them, and then announce this matter to the entire Jiao Prefecture! I predict that Shi Xie's army of tens of thousands will not go to Ankang County! " Chen Zhi laughed and said, "Alright! Heroes think alike! As long as we take over the lead and Ankang counties, and slowly expand our power, we will no longer need to fear Shi Xie in the future! "
I said worriedly, "But I am still a bit worried. If Shi Xie insists on sending out troops …. Just in case, we'll have to really send troops to attack Zanda! I have no choice but to do so! " Chen Zhi agreed with me: "The possibility of Shi Xie sending his troops is very high, if we do not attack Zanda, in theory, we will not be able to stand firm, aiya! It seems like I have to prepare to leave my hometown for the worst! "
Li Xiong and Zhang Tie remained silent... In the end, the four of them had no choice but to do so …
I went home and stood in the kitchen, looking around my own kitchen. I could never see enough of my own kitchen, and I had a feeling that I could not let go of it. Even standing in his own kitchen or looking around in a daze was a type of happiness! A feeling of home, the warmth of home. Actually, what I'm most afraid of is wandering around, and what I'm most afraid of is being homeless! I couldn't help but pick up the lid, scoop a few spatulas into the pot, and sigh heavily a few times. In the end, he wandered around the house, looking at everything, everything …
I don't know when I'll be back from home this time.
The County Magistrate laughed loudly. "Great!" Good! We have accomplished this great deed, there is no need to worry about not being promoted! " His trusted aide flattered him, "My lord, don't forget about me at that time!" County Magistrate: "Alright!" Good! I will never forget you! " The two of them looked at each other and laughed …
The servants came to report: "Lord County Official, Li Xiong, Fan Li and the other four requests an audience!" The County Magistrate said happily, "Quickly invite him in! "Quick, invite him in!" The servant retreated, "Yes! I'll go and ask them to come up immediately! " The servant went to invite him.
After a while, the four of us came in. The County Magistrate smirked and said, "Welcome! Welcome! I am sending someone to invite you to the banquet! Who would have thought that everyone would come! Haha... Come in and take your seat! "
I cupped my hands and bowed. "Thank you, Sir, but there's no need!" I turned to shout, "You traitor! You want to kill us and then offer the city to the traitor Zanda!" Today, we will remove all harm for the country and kill you, traitor! Brothers, quickly make your move! "
Just as I finished speaking, Li Xiong rushed forward and twisted the county magistrate's head. The county magistrate never dreamed that he would die, and Zhang Tie had killed all of his trusted aides. Hundreds of county soldiers rushed forward to avenge the county magistrate, Li Xiong stretched his eyes and shouted, "Any of you want to die! Come on! Do you want to try my, Li Xiong's, flame gun?! " On the other hand, Liu Jian led a hundred over people to draw his bow and arrows, preparing to shoot the hundreds of county guards who were rushing over.
All the county soldiers jumped in fright, not only because Li Xiong and Zhang Tie had the courage to fight, but also because they were afraid of their opponents' bows and arrows. I looked at the several hundred soldiers and shouted, "Brothers!" This is a traitor's secret letter from the Elephant Forest County's bandit district to the bandit county magistrate, telling that bandit county magistrate to start a war and separate himself from my men! Shouldn't these traitors be killed? This traitor usually had the power to bully the common people! Brothers, haven't you suffered enough under him? "
I looked at the leader's magistrate and the body of his confidant. I clutched my chest and vomited with my mouth open. Because I had never killed a man or seen a corpse as bad as this one, and because of what I had done to the county magistrate and his men, I felt very uneasy. He really didn't know how many more people he would have to kill in his next life …
When Shi Xie heard that the lead county magistrate had died, he was enraged. Shi Xie shilling Yu Lin was so angry that he sent all of his taiwai s to attack me.
I gathered soldiers from two counties, for a total of more than seven hundred men. As a soldier with a lot of prestige in the Ankang, Li Xiong's family owned over a hundred private songs, and Zhang Tie's Zhang family naturally had their own private songs too. And since his family was born into a martial general, naturally, his private songs were all highly skilled and skilled. My family has been doing business for generations, often taking dangerous roads, and there are always servants who know martial arts. My family's employees and the private music department can get around two hundred people. This way, the four of us will have more than a thousand men.
I gathered the 1000 people and shouted loudly to them, "The land of us big men were exchanged for it with our ancestors' blood. Now, the Elephant Forest County wants to separate the Elephant Forest County from the big men. If we were to let this plot succeed, when we are old enough, wouldn't our descendants ask us, "Isn't the Elephant Forest County our big man?" Why did it break away and become a nation? Grandpa, why don't you defend your country? ' How should we answer that? Furthermore, how can we explain ourselves to our ancestors after we die? We threw away the land that our ancestors exchanged our blood for, and now we still have the face to go down to meet our ancestors? Could it be that we can only be ashamed of our ancestors and have our future generations feel sorry for them? "
When the thousand over people heard my words, the crowd became furious, "We absolutely cannot be ashamed of our ancestors and let down our descendants!" I looked at the thousands of people and knew they could use it, so I raised my arms and shouted, "Yes! The brothers were right! We must not let down our ancestors and our descendants! Let's go to the punitive zone together, defend the big men and defend our own dignity! How is it? If you want to be a man, then go. If you don't want to have any dignity, then I won't force you! " With my provocation, the crowd thundered in response, "Good! "Alright!" Li Xiong, Chen Zhi, Zhang Tie, and I all laughed happily.
Liu Jian put on the armor that he had worn in the past to protect his family and protect his country, still having the same heroic feeling he had when he was young, when he was on the expedition in the Liang Zhou. Liu Jian stepped forward and said, "Young Master! There is a man called Li Gang outside. He is leading dozens of people to seek refuge with us! " Now was the time to hire someone. If someone came to vote, they naturally wouldn't refuse.
"Tell him to come in!" Liu Han then instructed one of his attendants to invite Li Gang in. A handsome young man led dozens of people here. Zhang Tie walked over and said: "Brave one! Zhang Tie welcomes you all! "
"Zhang Tie? You are Zhang Tie? Zhang Meng's grandson, Zhang Zhi's son? Zhang Tie still hates you? " When Li Gang heard Tie Ta introduce himself, he stared intently at Tie Ta, and the dozens of people he brought all stared fixedly at Tie Ta. Tie Ta found this extremely strange. "What's wrong?" he asked. Is there anything strange about me? " Li Gang thought in his heart: "Zhang Tie, the grandson of my grandfather's good friend Zhang Huai! If it wasn't for Zhang Mo helping the officials without finding out the truth, my family wouldn't have been ruined like this! Should I identify myself to him? Sigh! Let's take a look first! " Li Gang thought about it and laughed, "No! Nothing more! "Haha!" He stared fixedly at Li Gang, and felt that this person must be related to his own family, but it was inconvenient for him to ask about it.
Chen Zhi walked up and said: "Warriors, are you willing to go with us to the punitive zone to take back Elephant Forest County?" Li Gang cupped his hands and replied: "That's all I can ask for!" Chen Zhi laughed, "Good! "Alright!"
"Report ~!" The scout rushed in and cupped his hands towards me, saying: "Young Master, the taiwai of Yu Lin County led two thousand people and charged towards the Ankang County first. He wants to cut off our path to the Elephant Forest County County first!" I was shocked. "What!?" Are we going to start a war with Yu Lin, the taiwai of Yu Lin County? "
Zhi sighed and said, "There's nothing we can do! We have no choice but to fight! Once Zhang Min's army arrives, it will be hard for us to resist the enemy! We will ambush Zhang Min and defeat him! and then use his troops and his transport to replenish us! " I looked extremely unwilling. "This …" Li Xiong and Tie Ta, "Alright! Just do it! " I sighed. All three of my brothers had agreed to it, and my opposition as a lackey was of no use.
Chen Zhi's face showed worry, "But I'm a bit scared! I'm afraid that when the two counties' soldiers see that we are going to attack Zhang Min's army, they will definitely go into an uproar! They think that we lied to them and attacked their own people. With the internal affairs being so chaotic, how could we be a match for Zhang Min? " Li Xiong frowned and nodded his head, saying, "I was afraid of that too! "We will combine the private troops of our families with the soldiers of two counties. When the soldiers of two counties are in turmoil, we can easily control the situation." Chen Zhi sighed, and said: "I hope everything goes as planned! Sigh! I hope this gamble will succeed! "
Zhang Tie said: "Zhang Min has more men than us, we can't possibly eat them all. We can only let them flee, as long as our army can win!" I looked up at the sky and thought, "Can we really win this battle?" To tell the truth, I don't want to start a war at all. After all, I still want to inherit my inheritance. Sigh! I am filled with an inexhaustible terror of war, unlike Li Xiong and Zhang Tie who are generals, I don't have a strong sense of rejection towards war! But now that things have come to this, I have to submit to my three brothers.
Li Xiong and the rest sent their men to ambush them while they waited for the arrival of Zhang Min's army …
"Big Brother, look!" The enemy is here! " Tie pointed at the distant mountain road. Tung followed the direction indicated by the iron finger and saw a long line of people crawling along the narrow mountain road like a snake. Humph! Humph! Let the enemy have a taste of our power! "Prepare to attack!" There was a look of excitement on his face, as if the war was something he was happy about. With Xiong's order to prepare for the attack, the soldiers were ready to attack.
"Kill!" Defeat the enemy! " Following Xiong's orders, the rocks and rolling wood on the mountain continuously fell. Zhang Min's army were ambushed and they were thrown into a mess. "Our first battle was destined to be a beautiful victory! "Haha!"
But being proud was really too early, too early. Everything on the battlefield changed in a flash, but there were too many unpredictable factors.
When the soldiers of the two counties saw that the one fighting against them was a commander-in-chief of Yu Lin County, they could not help but be stirred up: "What's going on? Aren't we going to attack the Zoda? "Why did he start fighting with his own people?" That's right! That's right! "How did he end up fighting together with his own people?" Were we deceived? " The two counties soldiers revealed a puzzled expression, they did not continue to attack Zhang Min's army.
Seeing this, Zhang Min could not help but be overjoyed, he said to his assistant general: "Quickly organize the troops! The enemy's situation had changed! Haha! Li Xiong, you fools want to use our old army to beat us up, are you stupid? You fifteen-year-olds are still too young! Let me take care of all of you! "Haha!"
What was the outcome of this battle? Please look at the next decomposition.
