Chapter 205 Southern Sky 5
In fact, after seeing such changes and reactions from Dagang, Jiaozhou, Qu Chengyu only felt a faint sense of crisis and urgency;
On the one hand, these thieves, no, the rigorous and orderly and calmness shown by the rebel army invaded and in Zhenpinggang District and Fangqu made him secretly frightened by many corps under the banner of the official army, and he had a faint demeanor of the former Gao Linggong commander and a command like an arm envoy.
Especially the personal army of Monk Xu is so organized that it makes people a little shocked; although it will also be clamoring and clamoring in normal conditions, when it enters duty or in front of the battle, it is calm like a reef under the sea waves; it is faintly filled with the threat of being hit and bleeding from the head and even being crushed to pieces.
On the other hand, the guest troops he invited had occupied Dagang, Jiaozhou as scheduled, which was considered to have achieved the initial goal; but if the Qu clan who survived did not show enough value and equality, it would be sooner or later to be gradually marginalized or even abandoned in disguise.
.....
Amid the complex smells of metal and leather, and the shouts of horns, Zhang Dong, who is a former Long March garrison, is also busy in the sweat-riding crowd. In the distance, his former chief Zhao Yingong was leading a small group of rebel cavalry with spears and bows, expelling and cleaning up the eyeliners and ears of the bandits gathered on the periphery.
The severely silted outer trenches around the port were dug out waist-shallow depth, and then filled the land to the inner side to make a steep slope that was not easy to cross; then Zhang Dong's team fire received a new task.
Then, they pulled the ropes with wooden sticks tied to the car and spread them out, and then vigorously pushed the tip of the wooden sticks two or three steps apart, and swung the hammer cone toward the ground force; so several interlaced interception fortifications were arranged in an instant; this is the original shrinkage version of the wire block - the rope stick block;
Although according to the daily practice and practice of the rebel army, the strength of this thing can only be said to be better than nothing in dealing with the cavalry's charge, it is still effective in blocking the advancement of the infantry. When paired with props such as sharp and harsh bells and empty cans, those night-time stealing teams that play the imaginary enemy are often trapped and fallen on it.
Anyway, on the battlefield, this thing is not required to stop the enemy for how long it will be. It is enough to provide warning in front of the formation and a moment of buffering. The life and death victory or defeat of meeting the enemy may be within this moment of delay. When Zhang Dong began to hang cans and bells containing fragments on these straightened cables one by one; the horse team that was driving and cleaning up the threat from afar was quickly returned under the leadership of Zhao Yingong.
In the vast smoke and dust that followed them were many variegated enemies waving their weapons; they looked everywhere in the mountains and fields, and there were a lot of them. Amid the sound of whistles blowing one after another, Zhang Dong's fire was also slowly retreated along the deliberately left gap and turned around the newly built fortifications and temporary defense lines under the influence of some orderly overall emotions.
At this time, he noticed that behind the defense line, the opponent had already prepared the corresponding armor and equipment, as well as the fire-making pot and other tools. They were all clearly placed in a convenient position to access.
In fact, for such a fierce enemy, based on Zhang Dong's years of experience in guarding the border and defending the base, he did not feel any need for panic. Because the opponent's formation and queue were too scattered, and there was a lack of the most basic coordination and connection, there were also various types of refutations in combat equipment. In addition, it seemed that the rebel army had already been fully prepared, and the connection between the inside and outside was always in order, which made people less worried.
He first drank half a barrel of hot tea together, and then took half a saliva in his mouth; then he heard the sound of whistles again, which made them start to wear protective gear on the spot; Zhang Dong, who put on the tight gray cloth robe, also got a protective gear called pockmarker in front and back; it was on the stitched leather, and he felt that it would not be much heavier than the leather armor, but it had a faint old patent leather smell.
Then, he stepped on a two-foot old horizontal knife with patent skin almost falling out on his waist, carefully checked the polished blade; he picked up a pair of pretty maintenance--and tried it when the wooden bow was used to put the strings on it, which was quite compact and even. He then pulled out a bamboo arrow from Hu Lu, clamped it with two fingers to compete in the sky light, and found that it was cut quite straight, symmetrical, round and clean, and did not sigh again in his heart; it was obvious that the equipment used by these thieves was much more attentive than most official troops he had seen.
He poked the corners of the pockmark armor with a black and black wrought iron again with a force, and found that he still had certain protection capabilities, not just for a silence. Then he breathed a sigh of relief. At this time, the drums and shouts suddenly sounded in front of the formation, but the enemies had already rushed to the range of arrows that had been calibrated with stones in advance.
It seemed that these enemies who had completely loose and messy formations had even been unintentionally arranged in a whole line and launched an attack in an eager manner, like a swarm of roars and screams; then they were hit by several crossbow teams in front of them with high and low heights; amid the buzzing sounds, the enemy soldiers running in the front row were like being cut down and knocked over tree stumps, and were trampled and tripped by the back team that was not enough to collect;
Then the rain of arrows shot by the back team, which suddenly became a bit loose and chaotic as blood splashed and squeezed in a rushing place to rush into the enemy group and filtered it, and became a little loose and chaotic.
After just two rounds of shooting, the entire row of these impacts seemed to be hit by a stick, and broke into pieces on the spot;
Then, some of them were still burying their heads and continuing to rush forward, some began to run towards both sides, and some stopped at a loss, and squeezed into the same place with the people rushing up from behind. Some even lay down on the ground, like the frightened pheasant, and refused to move again.
Seeing this situation, the team officer commanding next to him asked the drummer to blew the sound of a flute representing a slight adjustment of the formation, and after getting closer to the more dense formation, Zhang Dong also raised his bow upwards, aligned with the left and right to the higher diagonal angles and radiated them one after another. After a few breaths, a more dense and long rain of arrows swept over the enemy's rear team, which was still rushing forward, and in an instant, a particularly sparse gap was cleared out.
Then, the remaining enemy troops who were rushing straight ahead also reacted to the empty and mourning behind the fields as if they were waking up from a dream, and turned around and ran back as various morale fell. At this time, the other two groups of swords that had just deviated from Hong Kong to the outside were looking at the back of the other party's already forgot to chase, but they had no time to continue to do the merging and attack according to the plan and deployment.
Fortunately, the cavalry and barracks who had retreated before had rested; they were seen trotting out of the winding trenches and flying on horses. During the acceleration and speeding, the enemy forces were already surrounded by the wild retreating forces, and they rushed and slashed in between.
In the Hong Kong District and Fangqu, the rebels who had just symbolically comforted the rebels who went to welcome the "fathers" and controlled many key rebels in the urban area, and soon showed a kind of cruel and decisive side again.
Because of the existence of these pirate prisoners that had been defeated before, it also solved a problem that Zhou Huaian had been considering; how to legitimately carry out a scrupulous scruple of the local forces in Jiaozhou Port; and how to keep the people and things you want in a cage and change bird-like manner to facilitate long-term control of Jiaozhou Port after entering.
Now, with the recognition of corresponding victims and pirate captives, as long as the former owners and relatives who had secretly communicated with them were captured one by one; and then follow the clues to a certain extent, you can legitimately clean up the local forces of Jiaozhou Port. For example, those who have malicious and hostile emotions towards the Guangzhou Left-behind Office will no longer need to tolerate or tolerate them.
So, Lin Shenhe became a witness and participant in all these changes. Under the leadership of the influential and well-informed Qu clans in the local area, he followed the armoured soldiers armed to the teeth, and broke into the houses and shops again and again. In the midst of various crying, begging for mercy and defense, he took out the people in robes and brocades, and tied them into strings and dragged them on the street.
Therefore, the leader of the underground gray forces and the large and small gangs in the local area, except for a "Hua Lao" who controls the business of a prostitute and prostitute, who was able to abandon everything and escape alone when the opportunity was approaching, the other four members of the other four were connected with their confidants and their heads were cut off and hung on the erected wooden pole in the port area.
Then, Cao Feng, the head of the famous Sanfeng Society, and his sworn brothers, were hung on the head with a look of dying with an expression of dying. Then, they were hung by the black and white people who were usually known to cross the coast of Jiaozhou, and were quite capable.
Most of them, who are usually powerful or swaying, are like helpless chickens in front of these serious slaughter soldiers, crying or wailing like slugs, and are disgusting and sad in time.
There are also very few who want to take risks or fight back; then they are trapped by a hook net and swept white dust to charm the eyes, ears and noses, and then beat them into an unbearable shape.
Of course, for Zhou Huaian, who is deeply conscious of outsiders, sometimes the fear and infamy of cutting the knots with quick knife are also effective means of spreading reputation.
...........
In a village on the outskirts of Guangzhou,
The bearded and haggard, covered in alcohol, also ushered in the end of his determination in a temporary confinement place.
"Is it time to go on the road now?"
He said relieved with some self-deprecatingness.
"I used up my use at that time."
After this period of time, he already knew what was happening to him. At first, he was taken out to show his face in public unexplainedly, and he became a generation of people who were well-known to be a thief. He also had many new works inexplicably under his name.
Although most of them were the scattered scattered traits that he had left one after another in his early years, after being woven by those ulterior motives, he could use them to comment and endorse those rebellious propositions. At this point, he suddenly realized that his family was framed by the traitors' scattered schemes and had no way out.
After knowing this result, his spirit of persistence and support suddenly collapsed, and he became like he was drinking too much and drinking too much.
"I don't know if it's Jiujiu or Jianyao..."
He sucked the remaining wine in the empty bottle again, and continued to sigh.
"I hope I'll give a whole body..."
Then, he was taken to a carriage covered on all sides and drove out loudly; and the carriage did not stop until the next day, and Pi Rixiu was pushed back again with sleepy eyes and drove off the carriage, not muttering to himself: "Is it just execution here?"
Then, he only saw a green vegetable bed around the soil surrounding the green seedlings, swaying with the wind and the spring scenery was warm; and during this period there were neither newly dug burial pits nor tied ropes, nor a punishment platform suitable for beheading, and only a ditche that seemed quite freshly dug out.
Could it be that he wanted to tie up Qianqian and buried alive? He couldn't help but think even more, afraid that he could still be so calm under the light of the sky; then he saw the escorted military history bring out a document.
"Spider, you will be here to receive labor reform under the supervision of the people... atone for the past ones."
The other party announced in a cold voice that lacks emotion.
"I hope you can do it yourself..."
Then, suddenly a figure rushed over from behind and hugged him tightly, saying in a choked and sad voice.
"Xiolang,...Xiolang... It's great that you don't have any truth..."
"Wei Niang..."
Until this moment, Pi Rixiu couldn't help but feel a little confused, looking at the woman dressed in a country woman.
"You...you...how are you here..."
"It was the slave who invited me to accompany Xiulang..."
The woman was still rushing to him, as if she was afraid that she would disappear if she would let go.
"I have not already vowed to join Xiulang to advance and retreat together and live and die together..."
"Even if you go to the Nine Springs together, you will never leave me."
Looking at the woman who was sobbing and crying in her clothes, Pi Rixiu didn't know what mood or language to use to express this kind of ups and downs of anxiety and ups and downs suddenly. Finally, the words turned into a tossing and tossing sentence.
"It's fine if you're fine, it's fine if you're really fine..."
