stubborn thief

Chapter 95
The artillery battles on the official road ranged from childhood to ugly.

Until the two sides ran out of gunpowder and cannonballs, the infantry under the guerrilla general Lu Cheng finally took a detour and touched the mountain ridge.

Both teams believed that the other was a thief, and they had a great psychological advantage, and they were not afraid even if they got into a hard battle.

The battle was hard, and in the end Lu Cheng even climbed the mountain to supervise the battle. Finally, with the advantage of his troops, he completed the encirclement on the mountain ridge. The three-way officers and troops attacked twice, completely defeating the enemy.

The results of the battle were not bad, and numerous armored weapons were seized, as well as nine medium-sized artillery pieces and three blown-out cannons.

What's more, the capture of the thief's head will determine the merits of this battle.

As long as there is this, the families of the fallen sergeants can also wait for the court to allocate their pensions.

Thinking of this, Lu Cheng was in a good mood, and the medicine bandage on the shoulder hit by the lead pill didn't hurt anymore. Even the surviving Mr. Bai in Jingjiagou was a bit pleasing to the eye.

He patted Mr. Bai on the shoulder and said with emotion: "I blamed you wrongly before, Liu Chengzong's leadership was very fierce, and the battle was strictly regulated.

You call it an attack with [-] troops, it is not easy to save your life. "

Mr. Bai vaguely felt that something was wrong.

In Jingjiagou during the day, the thief leader is very fierce, but the thief soldiers are far less fierce.

The thieves fled as soon as they blew up with the flying cannons, not to mention that in the middle of the night, it should have been easier to break up. How could it be like this, they were beaten even more fiercely after they were bombed with the flying cannons.

Besides, where did the thieves get so many cannons?

But listening to the commander's meaning, it seems that he doesn't care about the guilt of the previous defeat, which is the most important thing to President Bai.

Officers at all levels reported the deaths and injuries of their subordinates, making Lu Cheng secretly rejoice.

His soldiers were not lightly wounded, and the casualties had already exceeded one-third. In addition to the fact that his men were killed in Jingjiagou during the day, the loss was close to half.

This battle was even more dangerous than he imagined, and it was almost entirely dependent on the soldiers' zeal, clenching their teeth and holding on.

Officials kill thieves, have a strong psychological advantage.

Will have enough morale to support them to win.

The captured bandit chief kept yelling and scolding, and the guerrilla general removed the shawl that was holding down the wound, and put on a short robe over his right shoulder.

As he walked towards the prisoners, he was still counting with his fingers on the road. The thieves were in their early [-]s, and many of their subordinates could become officials.

"Liu Chengzong! You have a big temper. You even scolded you when you were captured. You kept calling me a thief. You were confused as a soldier in Yuhebao. Look who I am!"

Lu Cheng used his left hand to grab the bun of the captive thief's head and pull it up, and when he saw the face of the thief's head, he was stunned.

Reach out and press down on the head again.

He looked left and right, rubbed his temples suspiciously, and then stretched out his hand to pull the thief's head up.

It's broken, why is it still this face.

He knew this face, Mr. Bao Pao of Yanshuiguan, who was promoted to a banquet the year before, and also came here for a drink.

Bao Bao, who kept scolding, was also stunned, the dirty words in his throat stopped abruptly, and he couldn't turn around in his mind for a while, so he could only stare at him.

Lu Cheng wondered, "Why are you a bastard?"

"Lu, General Lu? Why did you throw the thief?"

"You fucking cast a thief, don't take a rest at Yanshuiguan, and go to the fucking mountain to bombard your grandfather!"

Lu Cheng was mad, and the fire in his heart climbed up the trachea, so high that his head was about to explode: "thief, thief, thief, you motherfucker!"

Bao Bao is not a temperamental clay figurine, not to mention that the troops were almost wiped out in the battle, and he scolded Lu Cheng with his neck in his throat for a while.

Two mid-level military attachés, one standing and the other kneeling, scolded each other, which made the surrounding soldiers uncomfortable... They were tired and sleepy, and just wanted to find a place to sleep quickly.

After a long time, the two of them calmed down, reviewed what happened today, and finally came to a conclusion.

They were played.

cunning.

Too sly.

Cunning enough to make Lu Cheng feel discouraged, Liu Chengzong must have fled dozens of miles to the south during the time they were bombing.

With more than 200 wounded soldiers, they couldn't catch up even after the year of the monkey.

"The thief also has to sleep, the soldiers are tired, go to your Yanshui Pass first."

Lu Cheng and Bao Bao are always disgusted with each other now, but there is really no other way. Ten miles away is Yanshui Pass, and his soldiers need a place to rest.

He let the guards at Yanshui Pass loosen their ties, and said, "After the corpses are cleaned up, let's go to sleep in the pass. Tomorrow, the wounded soldiers will stay in the pass, and the rest will continue to chase the thief with me."

Compared with Lu Cheng, who was so angry that his teeth were clenched, Bao Bao always had all his thoughts.

Most of his subordinate sergeants lost their lives in this battle, and they don't know how to report this matter to the court. Now they can only listen to Lu Cheng.

Looking back at the remnants of the defeated soldiers who were picking up the corpses in the dark night, a dozen artillery pieces and the dejected brothers, Bao Bao always scolded all the swear words he could swear in his life.

Excited to get out of the customs, I wanted to make some meritorious deeds, so that more food, grass and money would be allocated from the top, who would have thought that such a result would be returned.

Bao Bao, who used to be a major soldier, always felt that the most disgusting thing in the world was lack of pay.

Later, he learned that there are many things that are more disgusting than unpaid wages, such as lack of rations and no reward for merit.

Now he really feels what it's like to be disgusted and open the door to disgust.

When you fight with your own people, you lose and you are captured. The most important thing is to fire yourself first.

Bad things come together!

A group of soldiers who stayed up half the night without sleep, marched and fought, had to transport 300 artillery pieces and more than [-] corpses, and it took an hour to walk six miles.

Walking to Yanshuiguan, the moonlight has disappeared.

Before approaching the pass, looking at the pass where a giant beast was lying in the darkness, Lu Cheng suddenly slammed in his heart for no reason.

He said to Chief Bao Pao, "Could the thief take the Yanshui Pass while we are fighting?"

General Bao gave him a white look, co-authoring that the general thought that what happened tonight was not disgusting enough.

But thinking about it carefully, he was also afraid of such a thing happening. If Yanshui Pass was lost again, he would just kill himself before the pass.

"Well, send two people over to see if it's ours."

After a while, the soldier who had discovered the truth in the past came back and reported with an embarrassed expression: "General, Li Laosi's artillerymen are in the city. Ask me how his brother is."

"Ugh."

President Bao sighed and waved his hand to send his subordinates back to the customs. Then he said to Lu Guerrilla: "Li Laosi's younger brother is also an artilleryman, so you will be killed."

What Lu Cheng could say, he didn't say anything, and his heart finally relaxed. This long day was a great test for anyone's spirit.

He just wanted to find a clean bed and hurry up to sleep for two hours.

After walking four or five hundred steps, they could already see the silhouette of the city gate, and they suddenly found that the gate was not open.

Someone in the city shouted loudly, "General Lu, it's been a long journey!"

"Your soldiers understand quite well..." Lu Cheng was half-speaking, suddenly stunned: "How did they know that I was here?"

The man at the head of the city drew his sword and waved it forward, and the voice came into Lu Cheng's ears from a distance: "Liu Chengzong is here, waiting for a long time, this road is dead!"

In the roar, the city head burst into flames.

The four generals' artillery exploded at the head of the city one after another, and the cannonballs smashed through the army array with a shrill whistle, ploughing out four bloody paths of scattered stumps and broken arms.

　Good morning!
