Tan Hong already has a case in his heart, and there are still some details to consider, although he doesn't dare to say that it is a foolproof strategy, but Tan Hong still has to fight hard.

"What are you waiting for, waiting for death?!"

Before Tan Hong could turn around and give orders, a loud roar sounded in the head of Wanxian County. After hearing this shout from behind, Tan Hong turned his head to look, and before he could see the scene behind him, a person slammed into his back, knocking Tan Hong, who was already quite weak, to the ground, and at the same time the person was still anxiously shouting: "Don't come and help yet!" ”

It was Xiong Lan who pounced.

Under Xiong Lan's greeting, other Wanxian officers also reacted. After these subtle changes, although everyone still doesn't think it, in fact, Xiong Lan has faintly become the leader of everyone, and has some appeal in this group of Wanxian troops. Every time everyone is at a loss, Xiong Lan can stand up and be the leader. After hearing his urging, the people whose brains couldn't turn were still hesitating, but some people also ran up to help hold down Tan Hong.

"Bring the rope and tie him up." Although the howling cold wind kept passing through the head of Wanxian County, Xiong Lan was already sweating profusely, and it seemed that Tan Hong had made a wrong bet this time, and he didn't know if it was too late to change the court immediately. Just now, Tan Hong stared at the city and said that the Qing army would be defeated, Xiong Lan heard it in her ears, pointed behind Tan Hong's back, and used gestures to get everyone to take people. However, some people did not understand his gestures, or understood them, but they were still hesitating - after all, it is not so easy to turn your face like turning a book. Seeing this, Xiong Lan didn't wait any longer, let out the loud shout just now, and took the lead in rushing towards Tan Hong without hesitation.

Xiong Lan didn't expect that she would make a mistake in betting, this bet was wrong, if she didn't defect to the Ming army, she had to flee quickly, and she fled far away before Deng Ming came back. However, this is not Xiong Lan's style of doing things, he worked hard for so long, and it took a lot of effort to persuade the people from the North Shore Camp to return to Wanxian, and then led everyone out of the city to surrender to Deng Ming, and then risked releasing Tan Hong from prison...... Of course, Xiong Lan was unwilling, and after some hard work, the bamboo basket was still empty, Tan Hong wanted to fight, and Xiong Lan was the same.

The officials at the head of the city tied Tan Hong into a big zongzi again, and the person who took the rope apologized while tying it back: "I'm sorry for Master Hou, the little one has pleaded guilty to Master Hou, Master Hou, you can bear with it again." ”

Tan Hong, who had no ability to resist, finally scolded this time, and after scolding for a while, he shouted again: "You are capricious, even if you surrender again, can Han Shizi spare you?" Don't forget that you just landed once two days ago! You followed Xiong Lan to surrender again, can Han Shizi not cut you with a thousand knives? ”

"It's not a matter of bothering the Hou Ye." Xiong Lan said nonchalantly.

After tying up Tan Hong, Xiong Lan dragged him to the side of the steps with a rope, and shouted to his accomplices while spitting:

"You guys, go and change the flags!"

"You guys, follow me to the county office!"

……

In the county hall of the county government, Tan Hong's relatives were enjoying the freshly boiled rice porridge, or biting into the hot steamed cakes that had just been served. Beside them, the soldiers arranged by Xiong Lan were diligently serving them tea and pouring water, and asked them to eat slowly and not in a hurry with a smile on their faces. Although there was only a small amount of food in the stomach, it immediately gave them new strength, and the few people who took the lead in jumping into the pit in the Nanda camp were still weak in their hands and feet, but they had already discussed it properly, and when they finished eating a soft cake, they went to the city to protect Tan Hong - after being hungry for so long, the fine grain soft cake was brought to the eyes, and it was impossible not to eat it at all, but unless they didn't want to die, they dared to eat Haisai and survive half to death.

After only a few bites, there was a sudden commotion outside the county office, and then the messy footsteps reached the door, Tan Hong's guards looked up blankly, only to see Xiong Lan leading a group of people to rush in murderously.

"If the officers and soldiers are victorious, the Tan thieves will be defeated." Xiong Lan didn't have time to explain more to the accomplices in the county office, and after summarizing the upcoming situation in the most concise words, Xiong Lan pointed to those who were still biting the bread in their mouths and shouted: "Quickly take down these Tartars and put them in our prison!" ”

Everyone was stunned, and suddenly everyone jumped up as if they had been whipped, and the soldiers of the North Battalion, who had just nodded their heads, suddenly had a fierce light on their faces, and turned around and threw themselves at the guards on the south bank who were sitting on their chairs; And the guards on the south bank did not tie their hands one by one, and they also jumped up one after another, and threw themselves at the cake baskets beside them.

They were so hungry that they finally smelled the food, and all these guards wanted was to eat another bite anyway. The men were still pushing the bread into their mouths as they were being pushed to the ground.

"Thirty-five, thirty-six, thirty-seven......" Xiong Lan quickly pointed to the number of captives to make sure that none of them had missed the net. The last captive to be pulled over was tied with his hands tied behind his back, a piece of bread in his mouth, and he turned his back to the sky, trying to swallow the food in his mouth.

Xiong Lan stretched out her hand and pinched the corner of the cake, pulled it hard, tore off the half of the cake that was still outside her mouth, and threw it back into the cake basket.

"Bear thief, give grandpa a good time...... The guy who had snatched the cake from his mouth had been dragged out of the hall, and he swallowed a little bit of what he had in his mouth, and a terrible cry came from outside.

Xiong Lan turned a deaf ear to this, and he hurriedly explained to the person in charge of the county government: "Hurry up and pick dozens of people with loud voices and strength to listen to the city, and the rest of the people will prepare meals well to welcome His Highness back to the city." ”

The person in charge of the county government is named Pu Fu, and not long ago he was just an ordinary man. After Tan Hong's defeat and the army's disarray, he was promoted by Xiong Lan all the way, and now he is a small leader in Wanxian County. After Xiong Lan left the county office in a hurry, Pu Annoyed anxiously assigned the tasks assigned by the chief, and after arranging all the work, he sighed easily, and his chest was full of satisfaction after work.

Looking around the empty county government hall, Pu Fu looked at the messy seats, as well as the overturned porridge bowls and cake baskets, and couldn't help but feel distressed, holding the cake basket in one hand and carefully picking up the broken dough cakes on the ground with the other. Picking up the grain on the ground, Pu Fu remembered how poor his family was when he was young, not to mention such a good fine grain, even a grain of coarse grain residue was reluctant to throw away. When the neighbors in the village fight, they will automatically avoid the bowls and jars to avoid damage, where will the precious grain be wasted?

When I was a child, my parents and elders taught me to be honest and honest, otherwise I would have no friends, and all the owners in the world also like loyal and honest men. In the past 20 years, Pu Fu has indeed done this, he has been a firefighter in Tan Hongjun for so long, and he has never stolen jiān to play tricks, everyone knows that he works hard, is honest, and treats people kindly...... Until a few days ago, Hou Ye suddenly said that from now on, everyone is not a Ming army, but a soldier of the Qing Dynasty, this matter made Pu annoyed for several days: the ancestors have been Ming people for generations, why did they shave their heads and become tartars all of a sudden?

When Pu Fu was still hesitating, Hou Ye assigned him to Beiying - the people in Beiying are not popular, but the soldiers in Beiying also have to eat, and they can't do without the gang; After two days of cooking with shame for Daming, I heard that Hou Ye was taken away, and he secretly shed tears for this reason, no matter what, in the past few years, Hou Ye has given him food to eat; Before the tears dried, Mr. Xiong shouted that he wanted to surrender to the Ming army, and the officers were persuaded by Mr. Xiong, how could a little man oppose it? Even if he feels sorry, he can only hide this dissatisfaction deep in his heart.

Park Annoyance trembled and did a good job of Xiong Zong's assignment, but he didn't expect Xiong General to praise him for being able to endure hardships and not be afraid of tiredness, and promoted him all the way, and in a few days, Pu Fuxing became one of the best people in the team. Today, when Xiong General rushed into the county government and ordered Tan Hong and his subordinates to be released, Pu Fu felt that this matter seemed to be a little inappropriate: Han Shizi is a good person, and he has not pursued everyone's sins, this front foot is out of the city and the back foot is reversed, even if people go to tea and cool, they can't go so fast, right? But Xiong Lan's order was still carried out to the letter.

After seeing Tan Hong's group of guards, Pu Fu began to feel ashamed again, these people are also old comrades-in-arms, brothers in a battalion for many years, only a few days have not seen each one of them hungry, Pu Fu felt that he should have secretly sent them something to eat a few days ago. For such a humble guy as Pu Fu, the guards usually call him around, and of course they won't give these traitors any good eyes today, Pu Fu is not angry at all, the smile on his face is not pretended, he really thinks that he can't live with these brothers, and he must make up and atone for his sins when he has the opportunity in the future, he originally betrayed Tan Houye, and it is nothing to suffer some white eyes first.

Unexpectedly, Xiong Lan rushed in again, and when he heard Xiong Lan's order to tie up people, Pu Annoy's head buzzed and he fainted, and he obeyed the execution in reverse, and rushed towards those who he was still full of apologies just now. In subduing the bears' total enemies, Pu Fu also viciously grabbed them by the throat and cheeks, and snatched the bread that had bitten into their mouths. Pu Nu didn't know that the fierce light on his face at that time made his companions around him feel furious.

Now when he thinks back to the desperate eyes of those who were preyed upon by his mouth, Pu Fu felt a burst of sadness, but at that time he was only happy, feeling that he had shown his skills in front of the general bear.

"How did we end up like this?" Pu Fu held his head and felt very confused. In just a few days, his life has changed more than in the past 20 years, and Park Fu has subverted his past code of conduct, and the changes have surprised the people around him and himself as well. But in just a few days, Pu Fu has changed from an obscure little corner to a well-known member of the Wanxian guys. Just now, Mr. Xiong praised him for his courage in doing things, and said that hundreds of men in Wanxian County will be under his care from today onwards. If he does a good job, when he gets through the current hurdle, Xiong Lan will let him lead a team of soldiers to try it out—isn't that an officer?

"Head! Here we go! ”

When Park Fu was annoyed, a group of people came into the house to interrupt his thoughts, and several of the leading guys were all small leaders that Park Fu had just picked out from his subordinates, leading a group of people with big shoulders and round waists to report to Park Fu.

"Follow me." Pu Nu jumped up. Anyway, my brain is not enough, and I can't figure out many things, so I simply don't think about it. Leaving his sorrows behind, his whole body was full of energy: "Go to the city, and listen to the chief master!" ”

，

……

Deng Ming heard a new round of loud drums behind him, and he ordered his horse to look back, yes, it was indeed the Ming army that began to attack.

It was not only Deng Ming and these people who noticed this movement, but some enemy soldiers who were still in hot pursuit also slowed down when they heard the sound of drums, and turned back to point in the direction of the Ming army. But most of them didn't notice it and continued to chase after Deng Ming.

"Stop, we'll wait here for a while." Deng Ming looked around and asked Zhao Tianba, "If we stick here, how long can we keep it?" ”

"The Tartars can't be attacked in a short period of time," Zhao Tianba looked at the crowd of people chasing after each other, some had begun to crawl towards the high place where they were, and some ran around the high place, wanting to copy the road in front of Deng Ming: "I don't know if Zhou Qianzong can get there in a moment and a half." ”

"Okay, I'm sure Zhou Qian is fine." The Qing army was much stronger than his own forces, and although most of the Qing army had been lured out by himself until now, Deng Ming was still very worried that the Qing army would turn back to rescue the main general. He led the guards all the way to the highest point of the hill, then leaped off his horse and drew his sword: "Ladies and gentlemen, if the army is not victorious, how can we be left alone!" ”

Zhao Tianba remembered that he had heard Deng Ming say that in the first battle of Zhengcunba, Zhu Di, the king of Yan, led more than 100 people to attract the main force of the official army to run around the big circle, and Zheng He was one of the more than 100 people at that time. The officers and soldiers were all the southern army, tens of thousands of foot cavalry abandoned the main general Li Jinglong to chase and kill Zhu Di, and when the official army chased the king of Yan several times, the leading generals were killed by Zheng He. Although Deng Ming said a few words, the thrilling in it can be imagined, and it was precisely in this way that Zhu Di tightly held the main force of the Southern Army, and no one thought of going back to rescue Li Jinglong and the camp from beginning to end. At this time, Zhao Tianba saw that some Qing troops were slowing down, and seemed to hesitate, who dared to say that there would not be more enemies to follow suit?

"What His Highness said is extremely true," Zhao Tianba agreed loudly: "When you fight, you fight!" ”

Seeing that Han Wang Shizi no longer continued to flee, but dismounted at the top of the hill, the pursuing Qing army suddenly thundered with joy: it was obvious that Han Shizi had been trapped and had no way to escape, so he had to fight the trapped beast on the top of the mountain. Chasing all the way from the river, most of the Qing soldiers were already quite tired, but after seeing that Han Shizi finally fell into the encirclement, they continued to fight forward without resting, and their cheers overwhelmed the sound of golden drums from behind, and all the soldiers once again stared intently ahead. Right in front of their eyes, Han Shizi was standing on the top of the mountain with a few retinues, and the black-pressed Qing army was climbing up the hillside, quickly forming an encirclement and shortening the distance between him and Han Shizi.

"In a cavalry battle, there should be room for flickering and maneuvering, otherwise it is better to ride a horse than to walk." Seeing the dense Qing soldiers climbing up the mountainside, Zhao Tianba said to Deng Ming: "Your Highness sits here to watch the humble defeat of the enemy." ”

After speaking, Zhao Tianba took ten cavalry on his horse and attacked the nearest enemy army from the top of the mountain. The Qing army who bent down to climb the mountain was already out of breath, barely holding on to the idea of receiving a reward, and when they saw the eleven cavalrymen rushing down from the heights with a shout, many of them did not even have the strength to raise their guns to meet the battle.

Zhao Tianba rushed to the enemy formation, slashed his horse with a knife, and in a blink of an eye, he put the few Qing soldiers in front to the ground, and the Ming cavalry beside him also slashed and slashed. Those Qing soldiers originally thought that they had a victory ticket in their hands and were ready to take people easily, but they didn't expect the Ming army to be so fierce, and the fantasy in their hearts disappeared without a trace.

As soon as the morale of the Qing soldiers was discharged, they turned around and retreated to the group of companions behind them. Zhao Tianba did not chase either, and when he saw that he had forced the enemy troops on this side back by ten steps, he immediately turned his horse's head and returned to the top of the mountain, waved his hand to signal the people who had just charged with him to rest a little, and led the other ten people to rush towards the enemy troops on the other side.

After rushing and killing several times, the Qing army's offensive suddenly slowed down. Originally, in order to grab the merit, everyone ran as fast as they could, but now when they saw that the Ming army was strong, they gathered together with each other, shouting in unison and slowly forcing up to the top of the mountain. Zhao Tianba rushed into battle several times, so that there was always a distance between the Ming army and the Qing army, which allowed the horses to run and overwhelm the enemy in momentum. When the Qing army no longer evacuated as before but formed a close formation, Zhao Tianba no longer entered the enemy formation, and at most rushed over to scare the enemy, so that the enemy army could stop or retreat backwards on its own, so as to delay time.

After retreating to the top of the mountain again, Zhao Tianba stood on horseback and looked at the shore from afar. There, Tan Yi's banner was gone, the sand and dust were billowing on the shore, and in the haze it seemed that some people were running for their lives, and the boats on the river were also moving, and several of them had caught fire.

"Zhou Qian should have succeeded, wait a while, and he will come to relieve His Highness." Zhao Tianba loudly ordered the standard-bearer and the other four people: "You protect Your Highness, and the rest and I will block the enemy soldiers." ”

Now the Qing army's formation is very tight, the charge has no effect, and at the same time, the encirclement has also been reduced, and the Ming army only has a circle of territory around the top of the mountain, even if they want to charge the formation, the horses do not have enough distance to accelerate, not to mention that everyone's mounts are also starting to get tired.

Zhao Tianba changed his strategy, asked the others to do their best to maintain the battle line, ran around the encirclement by himself, and stepped forward to help when he saw where the pressure was high. Zhao Tianba shouted loudly, danced a spear in his hand vigorously, and kept piercing into the group of enemy soldiers in front of him, blocking the Qing soldiers from advancing outside.

The Qing soldiers in the front row are the fastest along the way, many people have lost their armor, there is no protection, in the face of the fierce Zhao Tianba, they can't help but be cowardly, so they just shout in their mouths, but they don't attack desperately - Han Shizi is already at the end of the road and surrounded in a circle, there are so many Qing soldiers in all directions, as long as a few attack the top of the mountain, they will win, and it is wise to save some strength and grab Han Shizi when the time comes; If he rushes forward with his life, it is needless to say that he will lose money before he dies before victory, even if he does not die, if he attracts the attention of the Ming army to himself, where should he reason if his companions on the opposite side rush up the mountain to catch Han Shizi?

The Qing soldiers on the innermost side of the encirclement did not rush forward, and the companions who were blocked by them, including Tan Yi's personal guard cavalry, were so anxious that they cursed, urging the people in front to rush forward, or they would retreat and give up their positions.
