Chapter 20: Encounter the White Lotus Sect Again

The denunciations of the incense people, Su Chengyu didn't understand half of the sentence. There is no Hokkien dialect in his memories of both lives.

Seeing his puzzled look, Xiucai Chen Xiongfei hurriedly came up and translated it for him in a low voice.

Seeing that he couldn't deny it, Wang Gu simply put his neck horizontally, "Tell you, let me go back quickly." If it's too late, my master will definitely lead the heavenly soldiers and generals to turn you into ashes! ”

Su Chengyu was too lazy to talk nonsense with him, so he glanced at Shi Lin, and he paced ten zhang away.

Wang Gu's miserable howl immediately came from behind him, and it was obvious that Shi Lin's "talking" style was completely different from Su Chengyu's.

The Zhu family brother came over and reported: "Your Highness, after the count, a total of 305 demon thieves have been captured and more than 100 have been killed. On our side, one person and two horses were shot by a stray bullet. Four others suffered minor injuries. ”

Su Chengyu looked at the guard who was lying on the square cloth not far away and had lost his breath, he was still teaching him to make fixed ammunition a few days ago, and he was still fighting bravely by his side just now.

Su Chengyu froze suddenly, and at this moment he really felt the cold and hard reality of the battle just now, and when he looked down, he found that his hands and feet had been trembling slightly. He was very calm when directing the battle, and for the first time he was on a real battlefield, the urgency to defeat the enemy in a desperate way overrode everything, leaving him to focus on the battlefield.

It was only at this time that the suppressed tension, fear, restlessness, excitement, irritability and other emotions in his heart poured out.

Fortunately, when he succeeds, people can bring out their full potential when they are pushed to the limit. Obviously, he has quite good military potential and is a man fit for the battlefield.

Su Chengyu quickly adjusted his emotions, visited the wounded with the Zhu family, and told them to recuperate. The dead guard asked people to carefully restrain and wait until the ancient city wall to buy a coffin for burial.

In troubled times, human life is as cheap as grass and trees, and everyone has long been accustomed to it. Several people quietly gathered the deceased, and although they were very sad, they did not show any excess.

After a while, Shi Lin finished his "conversation" and reported to Su Chengyu: "Master, this group of people is the remnants of the White Lotus Sect Ye Langsheng who fled when he made trouble, and they have been lurking in the Liangguang and Fujian areas, and this time they took advantage of the civil turmoil in Tingzhou to rebel.

He said that Qingliu County was controlled by a White Lotus Sect incense master named Ye Li, and there were nearly 300 disciples under his command, and there were 4 or 500 incense people who were bewitched and coerced by them. ”

"This guy," Shi Lin looked at the fat man on the side, "his name is Wang Gu, he is one of Ye Li's disciples, and he has some status in their sect. Ye Li thought that we were rich merchants and gentry, so he sent him to plunder us. By the way, he also said that there was a man named Yu Wu, who was originally the leader of these people, who had been killed by the bombing, and sent more than 20 horsemen to intercept us on the way north to Ninghua. ”

Su Chengyu frowned and nodded, although he had achieved a victory now, Qingliu County still had a large number of White Lotus Sect bandits. If someone had fled in the battle just now, or if the twenty or so cavalry had found out that their large force had been defeated, it would not be long before the White Lotus Sect in Qingliu County would have learned of what had happened here.

If they come to retaliate, it will be troublesome, and I wonder if they will be able to reach the ancient city before this. He was thinking about his next strategy when he suddenly heard Shi Lin shouting a warning.

The guards who had not yet taken a breath hurriedly picked up their weapons and turned on their horses, and the scholars were also infected by the battle just now, and gathered together with firearms to prepare for battle.

Su Chengyu raised his eyes and looked at it, although he couldn't see it clearly before the sky was bright, but there were vaguely hundreds of people coming from the northeast. These people wore white scarves on their heads, all kinds of weapons in their hands, and dozens of horses, and they looked very much like the White Lotus Sect bandits.

How did it come so quickly?! He was anxious, his own people had just passed through a big battle, and the other party was waiting for work and cavalry, and at this time the battle was afraid that there would be heavy casualties.

What's more, there are more than 300 captives next to them, if they take advantage of the situation again, the consequences will be unimaginable!

The White Lotus Sect bandits on the opposite side had obviously also discovered Su Chengyu and them, and immediately stopped advancing and set up a formation nearly two hundred steps away. I saw that his soldiers moved quickly, the infantry was in the center, and the cavalry was flanked by cavalry, the formation was neat, and it was obviously well-trained.

"Master, it's not good!" Shi Lin leaned next to Su Chengyu, pointed to a small black dot on the opposite side and said, "They seem to have artillery." ”

Su Chengyu complained in his heart, if the other party occupies the range advantage, it means that he must take the initiative to charge, otherwise he can only be a target.

He rolled over his horse and swung his pistol at the guards, "Formation, ready to charge!" He also instructed Chen Xiongfei to fly them, "Guard the prisoners, and kill them immediately if anyone moves!" ”

Wang Gu also saw the group of people in the distance, and immediately recognized that it was his own disguise, and while the guards were busy lining up in a charging formation, he secretly stood up and shouted loudly: "Brother of the White Lotus Sect, save me!" I am a disciple of Lord Ye Xiang! ”

Seeing this, his two subordinates immediately shouted, "We are from the White Lotus Sect, save us!" ”

"Attack quickly, there are not many of them......"

Although Chen Xiongfei is a scholar, he has always been determined to kill the enemy on the battlefield and serve the country. As soon as he got Su Chengyu's order, he saw that a captive dared to blow up the stab, and he was not polite at the moment, and he smashed the chest of a guy who was shouting indiscriminately. The shouting stopped abruptly.

But the shout had already drifted into the ears of the White Lotus Sect members on the other side. The leader, a very young leader, was directing his men to fire the cannons, and when he heard these shouts, he was stunned for a moment, and then reached out and held down the man who was filling the cannon barrel.

Soon, a young man rode out of the ranks of these White Lotus Sect bandits, and he actually held a white flag in his hand!

The Zhu family brother volunteered to ride a horse to contact, but Su Chengyu did not stop him, and he might not even understand what the other party said.

From a distance, it can be seen that the Zhu family brother and the person holding the white flag talked happily, and after a while, they each turned back to their own formation.

Without waiting for Su Chengyu to ask, he heard the Zhu family brother lower his voice and said, "Your Highness, they are brave and strong people from Sidu Town. Pretending to be a demon thief is to attack Qingliu County. ”

Su Chengyu breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, but he still asked the guards to be on guard, and he brought Shi Lin and Zhu Jiadi to the front of the battle.

The young leader on the opposite side also brought two people to drive his horse to Su Chengyu's approach, hugged his fists and said: "I heard that this hero defeated four hundred demon thieves with only a few dozen people, I admire it very much!" Oh, in Liu Guoxuan, Xiasidu Town, he was ordered by the governor of Tingzhou to lead the township to recapture Qingliu County. Dare to ask the hero your surname? ”

It's Hokkien again. Su Chengyu listened to the translation of the Zhu family, and considered not revealing his identity first, so he arched his hand and said: "I am the caravan steward passing by here, my surname is Su, and my name is ......."

As soon as he was halfway through his words, he suddenly pointed to the young man opposite and said in surprise: "You said your name is Liu Guoxuan?!" ”
