"Ma Yongzhen! This official thinks that you are also a man, and I will meet you today! If you have the guts, come out and fight my men for a few rounds, and if you plan to be a turtle with a shrunken head, go back to the turtle cave in the mountain and be your eight kings. ”

Qin Mu led a hundred men and horses, stopped at the place where Ma Yongzhen's camp was a stone's throw away, and shouted loudly. Generally speaking, when the army chooses to camp at home, the terrain in front of the village is relatively empty and flat to prevent it from being attacked by the enemy.

Qin Mu's hundred men and horses, barely able to be regarded as cavalry, are only thirty or forty, and the rest are just infantry on horses. This kind of open terrain is very beneficial to him, even if he can't beat us, he can always run through.

Qin Mu opened his mouth and asked Ma Yongzhen to come out and fight alone, this is also a matter of great benefits, if Ma Yongzhen does not fight, it will be a great blow to his prestige;

If he goes out in battle and wins, Qin Mu will turn around and leave, anyway, he will dare to come to the village to challenge with a hundred people, and he has already earned him enough face;

If Ma Yongzhen is defeated, or even Meng Ke, no, it is General Meng Tian, if we General Meng Tian are cut under the horse, then the rebels will collapse without attacking.

No matter how you calculate it, Qin Mu will not lose.

Ma Yongzhen naturally understands this truth, but the choice left for him is nothing more than two, to fight, or not to fight. From his point of view, the general beside Qin Mu was indeed not easy to match, but the meditation horse naturally exuded a killing aura, and it was difficult for people who were not the survivors of a hundred battles to develop such a powerful momentum.

Ma Yongzhen knew that he was not sure of victory, and in a flash of thought, Huang Zhi, the leader of his subordinates, replied to Qin Mu with a sneer: "Who are you?" is also worthy of challenging my general, get out of the acquaintance! ”

"This official bank will not change its name, and it will not change its surname, and the new Qin Mu of Changzhi County will also! What general, you don't put gold on your face, it's just a child's house, this official is a dignified Qipinzhi County, it is your parents and officials, you are children, and you don't rush out to meet your parents when you see them. ”

The two sides roared at each other across a stone's throw away, although Qin Mu's words were not listened to, but they were reasonable, but it was a pity that people even took off their pants, would they still reason with you?

"Worship your mother's head, if you have the ability, you and I will try two tricks, who doesn't dare is a grandson."

"It's the opposite, it's the opposite, you dare to talk to the official like this"

"Lao Tzu is the opposite, can you be at a glance?"

But no, people have already reversed, Qin Mu laughed self-deprecatingly: "Ma Yongzhen, the official is wrong, you were forced to fall into the grass, the official can understand, I thought you were a man, this is the only way to meet you, if you don't dare to fight, you don't even dare to speak, it's just this pattern, if the official can calm Gu Xiancheng, he will be able to calm you, let's see!" ”

After Qin Mu finished shouting, Liu Meng and the others immediately cooperated tacitly, no need to talk nonsense, a contemptuous look, a haughty posture was enough to make the rebels in the camp uncomfortable;

Of course, there is no shortage of people in Qin Mu's army who make "boo" actions to the camp, a group of big-headed soldiers, you can't ask them all to be as noble, pure, and graceful as Qin Dazhi County, right!

In short, Qin Mu's goal of attacking the opponent's morale was achieved, and he was about to lead the army to leave, when the enemy's gate suddenly opened, and the rebels in the camp poured out like a tide, with several horsemen in front, one of which was the bandit leader Ma Yongzhen.

Taking advantage of the fact that the other party's foothold was not stable, Qin Mu did not hesitate at all, and immediately waved his knife and shouted: "Brothers, give it to me!" ”

Boom! Meng Ke's long knife was instantly unsheathed, and the cold light shot out, clamping the horse's belly, and the war horse rushed out like a dragon out of the sea, rushing out, and more than forty horsemen behind him followed closely to kill, and the smoke and dust were flying for a while, and it was unstoppable.

Qin Mu looked at the figures they rushed out of, and retracted his sword in a daze, in fact, he really wanted to shout "Brothers, follow me", the conscience of heaven and earth, he really wanted to!

But all the heroic feats in this world must have the corresponding strength to build the foundation, otherwise you will be playing lanterns in the toilet and looking for shit.

Qin Mu believed that sooner or later he would shout "Brothers follow me", but not now.

Fortunately, he is a civilian official, and the dozens of cavalry infantry who stayed behind to "charge the formation" can understand. Speaking of which, there are really few civilian officials who dare to press the battle in front of the enemy camp like him! In contrast, Qin Dazhi County's battle was already very heroic.

A muffled bowstring, a rain of arrows rose in the enemy's array, Meng Ke's body lay forward, the long knife danced in the cold light, like a wringing machine, all the oncoming arrows were wrenched, and the galloping war horse flew with four hooves, the mane was rolled, the tail was straight, and the yellow dust rushed towards the enemy formation without hesitation.

Ma Yongzhen suddenly raised his head to the sky and let out a long roar, and at the same time galloped out, and in an instant, Meng Ke met casually, Meng Ke focused on his arms, and the thunder slashed out horizontally, and the majestic momentum seemed to be able to cut Mount Tai in two.

"Dang!" Ma Yongzhen's big knife was slashed and rose quickly, and the tiger's mouth was sour and numb. His body fell backwards with the force of the oppression, and Meng Ke's blade slashed against his forehead, splitting a strand of his hair into the wind.

Qin Mu can be regarded as having truly seen the power of Meng Ke's qi destroying the mountains, in the previous night raid battle, Meng Ke had never encountered an opponent at all, and he looked very powerful when chasing and cutting people all the way, but in that case, even Qin Mu could do it, and there was no comparison with today's head-on life-and-death game.

Seeing that Ma Yongzhen was almost killed by the knife, there was an exclamation from the rebels, and they released arrows to relieve Ma Yongzhen. Meng Ke had no choice but to swing his knife and wring his arrows, then quickly turned the horse's head and approached Ma Yongzhen again.

Huang Zhi on the side came to block. Meng Ke's beard flew sideways, murderous, and after the whole person stood up, the long knife slashed down like a thunderbolt on a sunny day, Huang Zhi raised the knife with all his might, but he still couldn't parry, "Ah! A miserable scream was terrible, Meng Ke not only slashed Huang Zhi's knife away, but the long knife also split half of his shoulder, and the bloody Huang Zhifei fell off the horse, almost not human.

At this time, the rebel brigade also surrounded the people, and more than ten spears stabbed out at Meng Ke together, Qin Mu saw that Meng Ke and they were entangled with a large number of rebels, and there was no chance to chase and kill Ma Yongzhen, so he immediately ordered Ming Jin to collect his troops, and his men and horses were just like this, but they didn't want to consume them in vain.

Meng Ke and they quickly broke away from the battle, and Ma Yongzhen did not chase them, because they were basically infantry, and they couldn't catch up if they wanted to. When Qin Mu led the army back to the city, the city was full of jubilation, and the people on the street crowded both sides of the street, welcoming them like heroes.

In the previous Ganzhou City, there were no generals inside, and there were no soldiers to help, just like a child without a mother, the attack on the rebels, the people in the city were panicked, and Qin Mu had just defeated Gu Xiancheng tens of thousands of horses, and the people didn't care if you defeated tens of thousands of rabble, or tens of thousands of elite divisions, they only looked at the numbers.

Qin Mu has defeated tens of thousands of rebels, can't he deal with Ma Yongzhen's hundreds of men? This is the most direct thought of the people, they regard Qin Mu as the only savior.

In addition, as soon as he returned to help, he immediately killed in front of Ma Yongzhen's camp and thwarted the enemy's prestige, and this feat won the worship of the people. Even when Yang Tinglin saw Qin Mu, his eyes couldn't help but heat up.

If you say that in this Ganzhou city, who is under the most pressure, it is none other than Yang Tinglin, but he is not good at military affairs, in the face of the overwhelming Ma Yongcheng, Yang Tinglin sent people to appease but to no avail, his heart is like pressing a thousand stones, seeing Qin Mu, who had just won a big victory, came back to help, Yang Tinglin's heart finally fell into place.

Compared with the jubilation in the city of Ganzhou, the morale of Ma Yongzhen's camp was much lower, and as soon as he collected his troops and returned to the camp, he recruited the generals in the army to discuss the matter.

Ma Yongzhen's face had regained his composure, and his eyes swept over the generals and said: "Come, pass on my order, immediately slaughter fifty cattle and sheep, add food to the brothers at noon, and lift the alcohol ban at noon, everyone in the army is allowed to drink a drink, and tell the brothers, when Ganzhou City is captured, I will have a good drink with everyone again, and I will not get drunk." ”

Soon after the herald in front of the gate went out, bursts of cheers rang out from the camp, and the morale that had just suffered a small setback suddenly recovered. After hearing the cheers outside, the eyes of the generals in the tent looking at Ma Yongzhen also became firm.

Don't underestimate Ma Yongzhen's small moves, a person who can regulate morale at any time, he is not far from the ranks of famous generals.

"General, four thousand auxiliaries have arrived at South Snake Mountain, and they will arrive tomorrow evening." Hundreds of households Han Xiu came out and reported.

Ma Yongzhen nodded slightly, and then asked, "How much do you know about Qin Mu?" ”

Qin Mu, everyone here has heard of it, it is said that not long ago he came all the way south from Nanchang and exterminated a lot of small mountain bandits along the way, and some of the mountain bandits simply fled from the wind, which made Qin Mu's name spread all over Jiangxi for a while.

But before, including Ma Yongzhen, he didn't really take Qin Mu seriously, most of the so-called thieves were just villagers who had no food and clothing to gather to rob the road, and Qin Mu's extermination of them didn't mean anything.

Another hundred-hundred-household Hong Dazhuang said: "General, Qin Mu led 300 people and defeated tens of thousands of horses in one fell swoop, although it was a bit of a fluke to win, but Qin Mu, a civil official, dared to lead people to attack at night, which in itself is worth a high look." ”

"Don't put gold on his face, just now he said loudly, zuihou is not shrunk behind as a turtle with a shrunken head, if he dares to come up, I can blow him into two pieces with one sword." The other hundred households snorted dissatisfiedly.

Ma Yongzhen said calmly: "The famous generals of the ancients are not known for their personal bravery, but for their strategic courage and the ability to adapt to emergencies, such as Han Xin, Wei Qing and others are the most haode examples. Qin Mu didn't charge into battle personally, if you despise him because of this, it would be a big mistake. ”

"General, is Qin Mu really so at stake?"

Ma Yongzhen said: "After breaking through the South Snake Mountain, our 800 men and horses came by victory, I expected that there would be no good generals in Ganzhou City, and there were tens of thousands of refugees who could not eat enough, as long as we attacked the city, tens of thousands of refugees in the city would inevitably rise up, but now, these tens of thousands of refugees not only failed to play a role in our internal and external cooperation, but became the main force to resist us;

This kind of change is unexpected, if it is not bad as I expected, this must be inseparable from the sudden arrival of Qin Mu. In the blink of an eye, turn harm into profit, turn waste into treasure, this person is not simple, we have to deal with it seriously! ”

"General, what to do, you give the order."

"Hong Dazhuang listens to the order, you take three hundred men and horses tonight, hide your tracks, and attack Xinfeng overnight, in case the sneak attack fails, you will try to gather the scattered men and horses of the two masters near Xinfeng, and then reverse the siege of Xinfeng, Qin Mu's troops are limited, and there are fewer people left behind in Xinfeng, as soon as you besiege the city, he will have to be saved, so that he can run back and forth."

"Subordinates obey!"
