Chapter 30: Reversal

When he learned that the supply convoy and Zhang De had been captured, Li Jinglong did not panic, and sent ten fast horses in various directions in a row to urge new supplies.

But you can endure hunger for a few meals, but the thirst is unbearable, and the housekeepers who are about to smoke in their throats are clamoring one after another, and they can't hold it down for this. Li Jinglong hurriedly ordered the whole army to collect bamboo to make bamboo tubes, and sent the remaining 70 people of the front army to fetch water by a small river half a mile away.

Xu Hao, who was drinking sour plum soup, chuckled and said, "The beauty trick can be played!" ”

At this time, Xu Jingqin walked over with his brothers angrily and said angrily: "You are messing around, I will never agree." ”

Xu Hao, who was still lowering his head to taste the sweet and sour taste, said softly without raising his head for a long time: "Tie him up." ”

The four guards of Yanwang's Mansion immediately stepped forward and pressed Xu Jingqin to the ground, Xu Jingqin shouted while struggling: "It's against you, Xu Hao, don't forget your own identity?" ”

"Drag it down and hit the fifty big board again." After Yun said lightly, Xu Hao raised his head, looked at the surprised brothers around him, and his tone became cold, "Whoever opens his mouth to intercede will be punished heavily." From now on, those who dared to disobey the generals' orders, those who retreated from battle, those who surrendered on their knees, and the whole family was reduced to a cheap slave and sent to the Yanwang Mansion in Beiping for ten years of labor; Those who obey orders and dare to fight and dare to kill will be rewarded with one tael of silver for knocking down one person, ten taels of silver for more than five people, and one hundred taels of silver for more than ten people; Now the prince of Yan Wangfu testifies, with five hundred taels of gold as the basis, I, Xu Hao, swear to the sky and will never break my word. ”

As the guards brought up a box and opened it, people's eyes suddenly lit up, and the golden and dazzling colors were so exciting. And on the other side, the constant snapping is the eldest young master Xu Jingqin who was beaten by his own family.

By the turbulent river, more than 30 young village girls were squatting by the river to wash their clothes, six or seven women were washing their long hair with their heads bowed in the water, and a group of children were swimming to their heart's content. In the heat, the women rolled up the sleeves of their skirts, revealing their white calves and arms.

Laughter and laughter rippled in the air, and from time to time naughty children had water fights, and the affected women enjoyed the cool feeling brought by the splash, allowing their thin clothes to be wet with water and cling to their skin.

This scene feasted the eyes of the men who came to fetch water, and while fetching water, they wrinkled their eyebrows at the women on the other side, and from time to time some people laughed and laughed.

In the face of men's teasing, a woman will be afraid, and several women will be ashamed, but when a group of women, it is simply unscrupulous, not to mention some women in the countryside, who immediately have the courage to start ridiculing each other, which immediately attracted the men to hahadaxiao and their interest was high.

In this way, you are talking meat word by word, and the scene becomes ambiguous and disorderly. Suddenly, in the dense forest on the other side of the river, Zhu Gaoxu led sixty guards of the Yanwang Mansion to leap horses and shoot cross-guns.

"Not good, there is an enemy attack."

In the face of the menacing cavalry, Li Jinglong's front army suddenly became a mess, throwing away the things in their hands and turning around and running. Zhu Gaoxu took the lead and rode his horse across the river quickly, and the wooden knife in his hand slashed down diagonally, knocking out an unlucky guy who ran in Zuihou.

Sixty cavalrymen pursued seventy infantry viciously, and after destroying more than two dozen men in succession, the rest of them ran into a mountain col.

"It's not good, you have to be ambushed." Xu Hao, who was watching the battle on the teaching ground, lost his voice and immediately ordered: "Everyone set off immediately to support the prince." ”

Xu Jingqin, who had been beaten, had a gloomy face, and took the lead in rushing towards Xiaohe with two hundred energetic family members. Xu Hao hurriedly said to the red leaves before leaving: "Remember my words." ”

Just when the Xu family was in a hurry, Li Jinglong listened to the praise of his brothers in unison, and ordered the gate of the village to be opened with pride, and the whole army was dispatched.

A hundred cavalry, two hundred infantry, who had long been ready to go, immediately descended the mountain, and although everyone was hungry and thirsty, they were all excited by a sudden victory.

In the col, Zhu Gaoxu, who looked embarrassed, was covered with mud and grass, and his head was still a little dizzy, barely remembering that his mount was hooked by a tripping horse, and then he was thrown out.

Everywhere in front of him were figures with weapons and shouting, horses struggling and neighing lying on the grass, and the guards who were also stunned and staggered to their feet, some of them were once again knocked to the ground by the enemy who pounced on them, and some raised their swords and hurried to meet the enemy.

"Your Highness, get on your horse."

Several personal guards shouted in Zhu Gaoxu's ear, one led the uninjured war horse over, and the others struggled to lift Zhu Gaoxu onto the horse and rushed towards the road from which he came.

Fortunately, Zhu Gaoxu was not injured, and after coming back to his senses, he roared angrily, and rushed left and right with the remaining guards, and finally fought his way out.

There were about thirty people who escaped, probably because of a game, otherwise they were besieged by more than 200 enemy troops, even if Zhu Gaoxu was brave and invincible, and the guards were loyal to the Lord, God forbid, at most three or five people could escape.

Fortunately, the Xu family's team had arrived at the river in time, and Li Jinglong, who had already led the army, did not order Zhu Gaoxu to be intercepted with a smile, but ordered the ambush army in the mountain col to send some people back to the camp with the prisoners, and the rest came to converge and slowly launched a formation opposite the Xu family.

The morale of his team was high, and the number of people was more than double that of the opposite side, and the proud Li Jinglong said with a smile: "The cavalry army that this commander is most worried about has been completely defeated, and the rest is no longer to worry about. Haha, Xu Jingqin is probably already dizzy, and he is actually in a formation with his back to the water, does he want to learn to break the kettle and sink the boat, put himself to death and live later? ”

Wang Tong said with a smile: "The river is not deep, and he should cross the river and flee immediately." ”

Li Jinglong sneered: "Ben Shuai is not Song Xianggong who only seeks benevolence and righteousness, when will he stay if he doesn't fight at this time?" The herald ordered the Chinese army to attack the opposing commander directly, and to capture Xu Jingqin alive. ”

The war drums rumbled, Wang Tong led a hundred light cavalry to swarm out, shouting to capture Xu Jingqin alive, while Li Jinglong's left and right armies began to move to both sides, intending to completely encircle, while Li Jinglong's personal guards and rear troops were pressing forward step by step, following behind the cavalry.

Xu Jingqin, who was on the opposite side, turned around and walked away, and escaped to the back of the team, while the family members panicked, and the various flags of various colors during the hunt were hurriedly thrown on the ground.

On the green mountain, Zhu Di watched in disbelief that his family was besieged by others, and his previous advantages were all in vain, and he sighed: "Even if they give up the car to protect the handsome, most of them can cross the river and escape, I'm afraid it will be useless." Next, Li Jinglongjin can lead the army to pursue the situation, and retreat can capture the castle, and the general trend has gone. ”

The old man silently observed, a little strange why the grandchildren would suddenly dig their own graves when they had the advantage in the previous strange tricks.

Zhu Gaoxu was young and underestimated the enemy, and although he had to be rescued by being ambushed because of his identity, he couldn't save him with everyone. With a little brain, it is not difficult to calculate that the opponent has an advantage in numbers, and it will be useless to go no matter what, send dozens of fast legs and feet, and do their best, the most important thing at that time is to stabilize the position.

"In the end, an impulsive young man, too reckless. And Xu Hao, the coach, was unable to convince the public, which led to chaos up and down, which was a pity for the previous good situation. Zhu Di looked very disappointed, "Young people are not afraid of losing, but this time they lost too badly." ”

The old man frowned, seeing that the cavalry had rushed out, it was not difficult to imagine the miserable situation of the next one-sided fall, not to mention that there were gradually approaching infantry troops around, even if he was in such a dangerous situation, all he could do was to order the whole army to do Zuihou fight.

In the face of this disadvantage, the behavior of Yan Wang Zhu Di and the old man immediately showed the difference. For Zhu Di, the first thing that came to mind was to flee first in order to make a comeback, the persevering Zhu Di, as a prince, does not care about false fame, does not care about death and injury, as long as he can win the victory in the end, any sacrifice and defeat are bearable.

And for Xu Da, who once dominated the world, every battle must have the consciousness of fighting to the death, even if the enemy army is five times or more than ten times his own, he must not give up lightly until Zuihou.

Suddenly, the old man's old eyes flashed, and he said, "No, Xu Hao's son must have a backhand." ”
