Lord: Start with a book of Water Margin

Chapter 80 Chao Gai asks for help

Tian Lei loaded up the car and the housekeeper came in to report. Zhao Zhen was also eager to return to the fantasy world and say goodbye to Gao Hu. Gao Hu sent Zhao Zhen out of the village gate and watched Zhao Zhen leave on horseback.

Back at the village, Zhao Zhen made some arrangements for things in Bailiu Village and said to Tian Lei: "Next time Lu Zhuocheng comes, tell him that I need a tall horse. As long as it looks good, you can ignore everything else. "

Seeing that Tian Lei agreed, Zhao Zhen asked him to step back and took the cabinet with him, and the cabinet door returned to the fantasy world.

I had just returned to the fantasy world, and before I had time to place the cabinets and cabinet doors at hand, Zhao Yuanli came to report, and the households in Dongxi Village asked to see him.

Zhao Zhen was stunned for a moment. He had been famous for this neighbor for a long time.

On the way, Zhao Zhen did not forget to tell Zhao Yuanli the requirements for the cabinet and asked him to send it to the bone carving workshop early and complete it in two months. And he told me to be careful.

The two came to the front hall. A middle-aged man was dressed as a butler, and two young men were dressed as bankers. They were both standing in the hall. When they heard the sound of Zhao Zhen and his two men approaching, the three of them turned around and saluted. They were dressed as butlers. The man said: "Master Zhao, my Chao Baozheng has a letter to submit."

Zhao Zhen motioned to Zhao Yuanli to help the two of them sit down, opened the letter, and started reading. But it was a letter asking for help. The letter first stated that we were neighbors in the mist, and although there had been fights in the past, no one had been killed.

He complimented Zhao Zhen again, saying that Zhao Zhen now guards a territory and has recruited many heroes from the world. He hoped that Zhao Zhen would rescue Dongxi Village because he was a human being.

The letter also stated the reason. It turned out that since Dongxi Village stopped fishing, Baozheng Chao Gai led the villagers to boldly explore the surrounding fog.

There was some harvest at first, including seven or eight pieces of meteorite, a century-old ginseng, and a Huoyang jujube tree. Unfortunately, the good times did not last long. More than ten days ago, when Chao Gai and the farmer were exploring the fog, they came across a nest of more than twenty people. A forest wolf fights with three hairy-eared bears.

Chao Gai is also experienced in hunting, and he also knows that normally, wolves do not dare to fight with bears, even if it is an adult female bear with two cubs.

When something goes wrong, there must be a monster. A few people hid aside. Sure enough, the wolves were no match for the hairy-eared bear. Every time the hairy-eared bear attacked, he was either killed or injured.

Seven or eight wolves died, and the others were all injured. Chao Gai followed the retreating wolves and found the wolf den.

He killed all the forest wolves in the wolf den and returned to the village with the prey and the Huoyang jujube tree found next to the wolf den. Unexpectedly, the wolf king was not killed by the hairy-eared bear, but was knocked unconscious to the ground. When he woke up, he saw several people finishing the murder and cleaning up the scene.

Later, he followed Chao Gai to find Dongxi Village. A few days later, he attracted more than a thousand wolves and attacked Dongxi Village.

Chao Gai and his men were hunting in the mist, and the village was unprepared. The farmers working in the fields were so slow that they killed forty or fifty of them on the spot. When Chao Gai returned, he was also ambushed and attacked by wolves, and seven or eight more were killed.

Although he relied on the support of the villagers, he escaped back to the village. Now the entire Dongxi Village is infested with wolves, and all the livestock outside the village have been eaten. In Dongxi Village, which has more than a hundred households, half of the households have lost their young men, and they are somewhat unable to resist. The wolves sneak into the village every night and cause trouble.

Nowadays, people in Dongxi Village are panicked, and Chao Gai has no choice but to send people to Xixi Village to ask for help.

The steward Chao Ning brought the Huoyang jujube tree as a gift. The letter said that as long as Zhao Zhen could lead people to kill the wolves, Chao Gai was willing to surrender the whole village and offer the found spiritual objects and half of the property of the Chao family village. I just hope that Zhao Zhen will not hesitate when he sees the letter and send troops to rescue him quickly.

When Zhao Zhen saw this, he asked Zhao Yuanli to send a villager, took the order, and summoned Bao Xu, Jiao Ting, Ruan Xiaowu and other heroes, each with half of his troops, to the Xixi Village Pier to collect them. Tao Zongwang was left to guard and take care of him on Shuibo Liang Mountain, and Guanghui took care of him in Xixi Village and Kushutun.

Zhao Zhen also wore it, and instead of holding the green gun, he took a new thirty-level sword made by Yang Mazi, a cross-mouth waist sword, and another simple sword that Zhao Yuanli held, and later gave it to Jiao Ting on the dock. The men on the village were all dressed up, and half of them followed Guang Hui to guard the village, while the other half went to the dock to follow Zhao Zhen to fight in Dongxi Village. They also took out the shields they had prepared early from the warehouse and piled them on the dock.

After a while, we packed up and waited for the troops from Kushutun and Shuibo Liangshan.

People and horses gathered together and stood on the pier. It was already evening. Torches were lit around the pier. Taking advantage of the moonlight and firelight, Zhao Zhen stood on the hastily built high platform. He saw Bao Xu and Jiao Ting below the stage. The five leaders, Du Qian, Ruan Xiaowu and Shi Qian, were wearing armor and each had a sword. Later, there were more than a hundred people in the village, including steel forks, simple knives, heavy swords, and five-pronged forks, all arranged like a forest of hemp. Zhao Zhen couldn't help but feel heroic and shouted to the people below: "Since ancient times, it takes a thousand days to raise an army, and it takes a moment to deploy it. Today, Dongxi Village is asking for help. We are all human beings, so we should lend a helping hand. To save Dongxi Village today, you will go forward with all your strength. The first battle of the day at the Liangshan Township Military Camp. Those who are brave will be rewarded, those who are cowardly will be punished. Those who are the best in the army will be promoted and awarded."

After that, a piece of paper was burned on the high platform to worship the gods of heaven and earth.

world log

Consume the third element of Qi Luck to expand the territory, and the water surface area will be expanded by one mile.

Spend 12 points of luck to eliminate the fog, and the boundary of Liangshan Township and Dongxi Village are connected.

Across the river, Zhao Zhen saw many torches lit in Dongxi Village from a distance. Zhao Zhen shouted: "Get on the ship and set off."

After getting off the high platform and boarding the stern, the rest of the people also boarded the ship in order, carrying weapons and shields. The two-masted boat and the fast boat set off in sequence. The three people from Chao Ning in front drove the boat to lead the way. The lights on the boat were all turned off, and they took advantage of the moonlight. , went straight to Dongxi Village Pier.

Shi Qian followed the boat ahead, went ashore, identified the wind direction, and approached Dongxi Village from the downwind to investigate first.

By the time everyone got ashore, Shi Qian had returned from the inspection and found Zhao Zhen and said, "Master, we inspected from a distance and found that most of the wolves were resting. After a rough count, there were no less than 300 wolves here. Thirty or fifty paces behind the wolves, there are twenty or thirty young wolves."

After Zhao Zhen heard this, he called Li Ji, the rabbit, and asked if there was a way to kill all the wolves here. Li Ji listened to Shi Qian's description and said: "Master, we have brought a lot of fences. As long as we quickly surround the wolf cubs with nets, the wolves will go crazy and attack. If the perimeter is properly guarded, we can gradually kill the wolves." group."

Zhao Zhen nodded after hearing this and asked each team to get ready. Shi Qian led a team holding a seine net and lurked over to capture the wolf cubs. The long stick soldiers abandon their sticks and hold shields in front, the sword soldiers are behind, and the heavy sword soldiers can take over at any time.

Develop a good strategy and everyone will act accordingly.

Just as Li Ji said, the young wolf was caught, howling and howling, and the wolves went crazy and seemed to pounce forward, but unfortunately they were all blocked by shields.

Behind them, Pu Dao soldiers came forward and started scratching, and the pack of wolves immediately killed and wounded many of them. The young wolves howled so eagerly that the pack of wolves became more and more crazy, chewing sawdust from the shield. Jiao Ting, Bao Xu and others came and went to support and defend the shield formation. The occasional forest wolf that jumped over the shield wall was not a problem.

Half of the wolves were killed, and they finally regained consciousness. The wolf king howled in the distance, urging the wolves to retreat. The wolves were hesitating. Shi Qian, who wandered outside the battle formation after successfully capturing the wolf cub, seized the opportunity and slit the wolf king's throat with a knife.

Zhao Zhen was in the formation and ordered people to beat the young wolves with sticks. Without the command of the wolf king, the adult wolves only knew how to pounce upward in a swarm.

The howling of wolves attracted several other wolf packs, and they all attacked the shield array like crazy. Chao Gai seized the opportunity and led his men out of the village to attack the wolves, which also dispersed a lot of pressure on Zhao Zhen's shield array.

Using the young wolves as bait, most of the forest wolves were eliminated, and the remaining forest wolves fled in all directions. At this time, the wolf pack had reached eight or nine of the ten stops.

After counting the losses, there were no casualties. The leather armor effectively protected the vital points. Later, many wolves jumped into the shield formation with the help of wolf corpses. Although chaos was caused from time to time, they were all killed by Jiao Ting, Bao Xu, and Ruan Xiaowu, and the shield formation remained intact.

After killing the wolves, many villagers sat down and gasped, regardless of the blood. After a while of fighting, their strength was exhausted.

Zhao Zhen picked up a shield. The shield was covered with scratches and bite marks, and some of the shields were only half the size.

We counted the wolf carcasses, including the cubs, and there were nearly a thousand of them. At the wolf-killing shield formation, wolf corpses were all over the ground and blood flowed like a river. The wolves that escaped were so frightened that they would not dare to invade the village again in the future.
