Laiwu County is located at the eastern foot of Taishan Mountain, called Mu in ancient times, has always been a place where soldiers must fight, the famous "Battle of Long Spoon" occurred here in the Spring and Autumn Period, during the Liberation War, the East China Field Army also launched the "Laiwu Campaign" here.

On the seventh day of October in the sixteenth year of Zhengde in the Ming Dynasty, the sky over Laiwu County was once again shrouded in the clouds of war, and more than 5,000 Ming soldiers of Qingzhou Wei came to the north of Laiwu City, and there were more than 5,000 thieves guarding the city, led by Xue Bingxin and Sun Cai.

Because he received Xu Jin's order to contain the thieves in Laiwu City and prevent them from going south to rescue Xintai County, during the day today, Qingzhou Wei just made a feint, ran to the city to scold, and put a few firecrackers to collect the troops and return to the camp.

The night was bitterly cold, and the north wind above the city was strong, and the flames in the brazier were hunting. Xue Bingxin wore a black suit tonight, even her hair was wrapped in a black scarf, and she held a long sword in her hand, looking heroic, tall and slender, with exquisite curves and a youthful and energetic atmosphere.

At this time, Xue Bingxin was standing at the battlement at the head of the city and looking at the Ming army camp, her pretty face was as cold as ever. A slender young man stood behind Xue Bingxin, his gaze peeking at the former's cold side face from time to time.

This young man was about twenty-five or sixteen years old, with an angular appearance, his name was Lei Jun, he was not a member of the White Lotus Sect, he was originally a ringing horse thief in Lailai Mountain, and later took refuge in Zhao Quan. Xue Bingxin saw that this person's martial arts were quite passable, and the key was that he was good at riding and archery, so he wanted to go to his side and be promoted to the centurion of the cavalry.

It is said that Zhao Quan in order to distinguish it from the title of the Ming army, so the official position of the army is called the ancients, the officer who commands a hundred people is called a centurion, the officer who commands a thousand people is called a thousand, the commander who commands ten thousand people is called a thousand, and the one who commands ten thousand people is called a captain, and then there is a general.

"Lei Jun, what time is it?" Xue Bingxin suddenly asked coldly.

Lei Jun hurriedly replied: "Back to Commander Xue, it's almost time!" ”

"Ready to go!" Xue Bingxin turned around and went down the stone steps to the city, and Lei Jun hurriedly followed.

Xue Bingxin and Lei Jun got out of the city, and immediately rode along the street to the south of the city. At this time, on the streets south of the city, three hundred elite soldiers were ready to go, and all of them were cavalry.

The cavalry of these three hundred people was formed by Xue Bingxin himself, most of them were horse thieves who came to take refuge, a considerable number of them were White Lotus disciples, and some were young people from horse households, all of whom were proficient in horsewearing.

Xue Bingxin ran to Jiema Mountain before, intending to bring Tang Jing and his gang to join the cavalry team, but unfortunately they were wiped out by the Ming army first, otherwise her cavalry would definitely be like a tiger.

"I've seen Commander Xue!" When the three hundred people saw Xue Bingxin, they all saluted honestly.

It is said that most of these 300 people are unruly horse thieves, but after being trained by Xue Bingxin for a month, they all became obedient, who dared to disobey and single-handedly, plus Xue Bingxin was fair and selfless, but he never treated the people below materially, so he gradually gained everyone's recognition.

"I wish Senior Sister Xue success and take down Xu Jin's head." Sun Cai arched his hand at Xue Bingxin.

Xue Bingxin didn't know what she was thinking, and only after nearly a second did she nod and said, "Senior Brother Sun, I'll leave it to you here." ”

At about one o'clock in the morning, the north gate of Laiwu City suddenly burst into flames, and then the city gate was opened, and Sun Cai led two thousand thieves to rush out of the city and attack the camp of Qingzhou Wei.

Bang bang bang......

The Qingzhou Wei camp sounded a hurried copper Luo sound, and the Ming army obviously did not expect that the thieves would dare to take the initiative to go out of the city to sneak attack, and the battle was in chaos in a hurry. Fortunately, there were only 2,000 thieves who attacked the attack, and the Ming army gradually stabilized its position and began to mobilize troops to counterattack.

Just when the golden drums in the north of the city were ringing in unison, and the shouting of killing shook the sky, the south gate of Laiwu City was slowly opened, and a light horse of 300 people quietly went out of the city, without lighting torches, and went out of the city in the dark, and the horses' hooves were wrapped in cotton cloth, and there was no big sound.

Xue Bingxin led this 300 light cavalry to march for several miles in the dark, until he could not hear the shouting and fighting sound from the north of the city, so he ordered someone to light a torch, remove the cotton cloth that wrapped the horse's hooves, and then galloped away in the direction of Xintai County.

At the same time, a similar scene occurred in Tai'an City. The thieves in the city suddenly opened the west gate and launched a night attack on the camp of the Ming army, while a group of 5,000 thieves marched out of the east gate and marched in the direction of Xintai County.

And the only difference is that the 5,000-strong thief soldiers in Tai'an City are almost all foot soldiers, and the Tongjing who left the city is very large, and they were immediately detected by the Ming army. However, although the Ming army detected it, it was helpless, because at this time, there were as many as seven or eight thousand thieves who attacked the camp, which was equivalent to the number of the Ming army, so the Ming army could only watch the five thousand thieves leave.

"Kill!"

"Kill these dog officers and soldiers!"

"Lao Tzu White Lotus Talisman Protector, invulnerable, hehe!"

The shouts of killing outside the camp of the Ming army shook the sky, and those thieves held torches and showed their teeth and claws dozens of meters away from the camp of the Ming army, but they did not really rush over, but only occasionally put some cold arrows, obviously just trying to scare the Ming army into retreating in the camp.

"Brother, you have a two-stone bow in your hand!" Xie Erjian patted a Linqing guard archer who was waiting beside him, and asked lazily.

The archer replied honestly: "Back to Xie Qianhu, the subordinates do use two-stone bows!" ”

"Then borrow the envoy!" Xie Erjian couldn't help but say something, so he took the two-stone strong bow from the archer and took a long arrow from the quiver.

Boom......

After a cracked string, the man in the team of thieves who bare his chest and claimed to be invulnerable fell to the ground with a scream. Under the light of the fire, but he saw that an arrow was inserted in the position of his heart, and only half of the shaft of the arrow was exposed, and he could not die anymore.

Xie Erjian casually returned the two-stone bow to the archer, turned around and walked towards the main general's tent.

The archer only reacted at this time, looked at Xie Erjian's back, and then looked at the corpse of the thief who fell a hundred steps away from the camp, snorted disdainfully, and scolded: "Bullshit's invulnerability!" ”

The commander of Lin Qingwei was called Lao Daxing, about fifty years old, with a full beard and a very rough look.

In the camp tent, Wang Lin'er and Xie Erjian stood in front of Lao Daxing, and the former said loudly: "Commander Lao, the thief attack on the camp is just a bluff, but it is actually covering the departure of another team." If the subordinates are not bad, this team must be rushing to the aid of Xintai City, without further ado, we should immediately send troops to catch up, otherwise I am afraid that the general judgment will be broken...... The great event of Lord Chincha. ”

Lao Daxing hesitated: "But the camp is surrounded by a large number of thieves, so what can I do, let's wait for dawn to take a look!" ”

Wang Lin'er said contemptuously: "It's just a group of rabble, why be afraid, as long as we go out of the camp to fight, those thieves are allowed to retreat." If Commander Lao does not believe it, his subordinates are willing to lead 2,000 men out of the camp to defeat the thieves. ”

Hearing this, Lao Daxing said happily: "Okay, then as Wang Qianhu said, this commander will hand over two thousand soldiers and horses to you to command." ”

Although this commander Lao is rough-looking, he is actually a thoughtful guy. First of all, Wang Xie and the others are the henchmen and old subordinates of Qin Cha Xu Jin, and they must give face; Secondly, Xu Jin's order to himself was to contain Wang Tang's department, if he watched five thousand thieves gallop to Xintai, he might be held accountable afterwards.

Therefore, Commander Lao readily agreed to Wang Lin'er's initiative to ask for help, it would be best if he could repel the thieves, and if he lost the battle in the end, he happened to have a top tank.

Wang Lin'er and Xie Erjian didn't bother to pay attention to Lao Daxing's careful thoughts, gathered nine brothers, and ordered 2,000 men.

Boom Boom Boom ......

The gate of the Ming army camp was wide open, and three artillery pieces were bombarded by the thieves outside the camp, using flowering shells, and the thieves fell down a large piece on the spot like cutting wheat, and the terrible screams resounded through the night sky.

"Kill!" Wang Lin'er snorted coldly, and led two thousand Ming troops to swarm out, and the sound of bursting beans sounded immediately.

Although there were many thieves under Wang Tang, they were all rabble, and tonight's mission was just a bluff, and they had no desperate intentions at all.

Xie Erjian and Wang Lin'er took the lead, rushing into the group of thieves and slashing and slashing, as if cutting melons and vegetables. When the 2,000 officers and soldiers of Lin Qingwei saw that the main general was so brave, they were immediately emboldened, and shouted to kill the thieves who were several times their size.

Under the ferocious rush of the Ming army, those thieves finally couldn't resist and collapsed, and turned around and fled in the direction of the city gate with a shout.

Commander Lao saw it in the camp and couldn't help laughing excitedly, if he didn't know what to do at this time, then he was in vain.

At that moment, Lao Daxing immediately ordered the whole army to pour out of the nest, beat the water dogs, and quickly killed the city gate, if he could take advantage of this to capture Tai'an City, it would be a great achievement.

"Kill!" The Ming army rushed desperately in the direction of the city gate as if they had been beaten with chicken blood, and the thieves who ran slowly were stabbed by the Ming army behind them on the spot.

"Damn, a bunch of rice buckets, I'm so angry, close the city gate, close the city gate!"

At this time, Wang Tang, who was standing on the top of the city watching the battle, couldn't help but be shocked and angry when he saw this, and hurriedly ordered people to close the city gate.

Rumble ......

The heavy city gate was slowly closed, and thousands of thieves who didn't have time to enter the city couldn't help but point to the city and scold, but the situation didn't last long, because the Ming army came up, and these thieves could only scatter and flee for their lives.

When Lao Daxing saw that the city gate was closed, he could only retreat and command his men and horses to chase and kill the fleeing thieves.

Wang Tang looked at the subordinates who were slaughtered like melons and vegetables outside the city, and his flesh trembled with pain, these are the teams he pulled up, but tonight the meat buns beat the dogs, and half of them disappeared all of a sudden, Ma's, this is all Zhao Quan's bastard, beheading plan? Chop a yarn!
