Chapter 528: Hunting in the Wild (4)
(Please give me a monthly ticket!)
There were fighting everywhere on the Juye Plain for dozens of miles, but this was already a one-sided battle.
Within a range of dozens of miles, more than 100,000 grass army had already been defeated and fled everywhere. However, the Tang army attacked from all sides and the entire army was dispatched. Cavalry teams charge and galloped, and any grass army general who wanted to raise the flag to gather his troops would be severely attacked by the Tang cavalry as soon as possible. The Tang army's soldiers were also chased by teams, and they drove away, divided, slaughtered, and killed red-eyed people.
More Tang army auxiliary soldiers joined the pursuit team at this time. The matter of cleaning the battlefield has been temporarily abandoned, and these auxiliary soldiers also rushed to chase and kill or captured the scattered soldiers who were defeated by the cavalry and warriors.
The entire giant wilderness was as ferocious as hell, with fierce fighting everywhere. Arrows flying above the head were flying, and there was a bright metal reflection in front of me. Countless swords and spears were pricked. Blood under my feet stained the earth red, penetrated deeply into the soil, and was bloody.
The sound of the Tang army's shouts, the screams of the grass army, the moans of the wounded, the sound of the captives begging for mercy. The sound of steel knives entering the flesh, the sound of arrows entering the bones, the sound of weapons hitting, the sound of running gasps, the sound of war horses neighing, all the sounds mixed together, becoming the sound of death in hell.
Huang Chao had been hit several times along the way, and in the end there were only more than a thousand men left by his side. As soon as he raised the flag, he wanted to gather some soldiers, but the Cao Army brothers had not gathered together, but instead attracted the evil wolf Zhuge Shuang.
Zhuge Shuang took Li Hanzhi, Wang Jian, Jin Hui, Zhu Wen, and Zhu Zhen and other fierce and desperate people. Seeing Huang Chao's banner, the few people were so excited that they were blinded by their eyes and didn't think about danger at all. They raised their spear, rode their horses and killed them.
Three thousand elite cavalry killed one day, and there were more than two thousand people. They suddenly came out and caught Huang Chao off guard. The two sides fought for a while. There were fewer and fewer people around Huang Chao, but the Tang army had more and more soldiers. During the melee, Huang Chao and his subordinates separated and had to escape alone.
Before he could escape far, Huang Chao heard the sound of the road behind him, and three cavalry rushed straight. When Huang Chao turned around, he saw several young Tang soldiers. Looking at the armor, he seemed to be just an ordinary soldier.
Huang Chao ran while thinking about a way to escape.
Zhu Zhen rode on the horse and shouted loudly: "Child Huang Chao, hurry up and surrender, and be defeated by my three brothers. It will not be humiliating your identity."
Huang Chao immediately turned his head and asked, "Don't you know the names of the three brothers Gao?"
"You can hear the name of grandpas. The one in the middle is Zhu Wen and Zhu San, and the one on the left is Zhu Cun and Zhu Second Brother. Your grandpa, I am Zhu Zhen and Zhu Fourth Brother."
Huang Chao didn't care about Zhu Zhen's stinky mouth, and at this time he just spoke in flattery, "But I wonder where the three young heroes are now?"
When he talked about this, Zhu Zhen couldn't help but be angry. In the Zhenguo Army's vanguard selection army, he was already the leader of the team, and he was about to be promoted to command. As a result, after joining the Xuanwu Army, he made a lot of contributions. But now, Zhu Zhen and Zhu Cun are just the commander of the squad, and Zhu Zhen was promoted to the commander because he entered the commander's tent that day. However, he had not even earned the lowest level of the deputy lieutenant to accompany Rong. This huge difference is so angry that he can think about it.
"Your grandpa, my second brother Zhu and I are the commanders, and Zhu San is the deputy commander!" Zhu Zhen didn't want to be seen clearly by a thief, so he said loudly.
Huang Chao said in surprise: "Brother Zhu, don't bully me, I can still recognize the armor styles of the court officers."
Zhu Zhen turned red and said with hatred: "How happy are the old thief? Grandpa and his wife have served as commanders and deputy commanders before!"
When Huang Chao heard this, he was shocked. The position of command and commander has only emerged in recent years. It was the first time that the Shence Army had set up commanders, and then some vassal troops also set up commanders and commanders in the army, and some even set up commanders. In short, these official positions are a bit chaotic. But generally speaking, the commander of the Shence Army is a very high-level, at least a third-rank official position. With these guys in front of him, it is impossible for such positions.
If it weren't for this, it would be just a low-level official position. He suddenly thought of Zhenguo Army. The Zhenguo Army changed its military position not long ago, and the generals of the capital became commander, and the ten generals of the battalion became commander. Although these two positions are not low, they are still trapped. Could it be that these two people used to be from Zhenguo Army?
He asked indirectly, and found out that these three guys were actually under Li Jing's command before, and had defeated Wang Xianzhi together in Songzhou. Later, because of a reason they refused to explain clearly, the three left the Zhenguo Army and joined the Xuanwu Army, but could only be a soldier leader like the leader of the mate. Although they did not know the specific reason, it must be because of military discipline. After all, he had heard of the strict military discipline of the Zhenguo Army.
After finding out the other party's identity, Huang Chao turned his mind and ran around and advised: "Why are the three brothers chasing me? You just want to catch me and make meritorious contributions, but think about it, what kind of person is the governor of Xuanwu Jiewu? With his three talents, he joined him, but he only had a small sergeant and gangster. Even if you catch me and vote for him, with Mu Renxuan's greedy and narrow personality, you may not be able to get any generous rewards, and you may be able to be robbed of me."
Seeing that the three of them didn't speak, Huang Chao couldn't help but strike while the iron was hot: "It's better for three of you to let me go, and I will definitely be rewarded later. I can give you a lot of money to repay you, or it's better for you to follow me directly. With your talents, I think you can completely get the position of a general. As long as three of you are willing to vote for me, I will definitely give you three of you three thousand soldiers."
Zhu Zhen immediately whispered to Zhu Wen: "I think the old thief's words make some sense. Mu Renyu is not a good bird. We have worked hard and made so many achievements, but we don't reward him. If we hadn't seen Eunuch Ximen and Eunuch Yang last time, the third brother would have been appreciated by them, I'm afraid that even the chief of the mate would not be promoted. Moreover, most of the rewards we made were deducted by Mu Anguo's donkey ball thing, and we got less than 10% of the rewards. The money we made was so hard that we made with our heads. Otherwise, we might as well leave the thief and secretly get a large amount of money."
"This is a violation of military orders. If it is discovered, it will be beheaded." Zhu Cun said in surprise.
"Bird's military order, second brother is still the Zhenguo Army. After leaving the Zhenguo Army, look. Not only Xuanwu Army, but also the other five towns, which are different. All military orders are bullshit. Damn, if you don't mention the military rations, you will even deduct the desperate rewards. Damn it will be deducted by 90% of the rewards. Even the fair rewards will be lost. There is no such thing as a mother's nepotism. If you have the ability, you still have to have to have a relationship. The rest are all empty, and money is real."
Zhu Wen was also hesitant for a while, and was finally moved by Zhu Zhen. Money is the kingly way, and nothing is empty. When they escaped from the Zhenguo Army, there were only eight horses. Later, a few horses were afraid of being exposed, so they threw away the horses. Since joining the Xuanwu Army, they received a reward of thousands of guan, but only a hundred guan. Only these guan was not fully fulfilled. Now Zhu Wen needs money very much. Zhang Tailiu, like the guise servants brought by many officers, followed behind the army and lived in the city not far from the barracks.
Huang Chao gave a bag of gold to Zhu Wen and the other two. Zhu Wen asked for Huang Chao's banner again. In the end, Zhu Zhen also asked for Huang Chao's golden armor. After looting Huang Chao, Zhu Wen was still credited and put Huang Chao on it.
When Huang Chao left, he said to Zhu Wen: "If the three brothers Zhu don't want to stay in Xuanwu's army, they can come to Huang at any time. Huang's camp gate is open to the three brothers Zhu at any time. As long as the three are willing to come, Zhu's second brother Zhu's fourth brother is at least a fifth-rank guerrilla general, and Zhu's third brother is at least a fifth-rank rank racist general."
Zhu Wen nodded to Huang Chao and did not refuse directly.
The three of them walked back to the foot of Juye Mountain in the night. The Tang army fought for a day and was exhausted at this time. After beheading more than 30,000, the Tang army returned to the camp one after another to rest and have dinner. The staff and secretary's offices in the army were even more busy and were nervously recording military merits.
After the three of them entered the camp, they immediately reported the situation of the battle to the leader of the vanguard battalion. Mu Anguo had previously fought in the Qing Dynasty, but there were no three of them. He thought the three of them had died in battle. He was very happy to see them coming back. The three of them performed very well recently, especially this time, because Zhu Wen proposed to him the plan to attack the rear army, he received praise after reporting to Zhuge Shuang. Now, after discussing the merits after the war, Zhuge Shuang has given the first merits of the three thousand cavalry to Mu Anguo.
After Mu Anguo found out, he did not say that it was Zhu Wen, who first proposed it and directly received the merit. Now that he saw the three of them coming back, he couldn't help but say a few words of praise.
After Zhu Wen took out the thief's banner, Mu Anguo was very shocked. After seeing Huang Chao's golden armor and sword in Zhu Zhen's hand, he was even more shocked. After asking, Zhu Zhen proudly told them how they chased Huang Chao and how they were finally chasing Huang Chao.
However, Zhu Zhen boasted too much, and many flaws were revealed in his words. Mu Renyu became suspicious and asked Huang Chao how he escaped. After deliberately deceiving a few words, Zhu Zhen finally deceiving more loopholes in his words. Finally, although Zhu Wen kicked Zhu Zhen quietly and took the conversation, he said that they were chasing him. Huang Chao threw away his armor and was about to catch up, but in the end, a team of thieves and cavalry broke out halfway and rushed out to meet Huang Chao and escaped. They had to pick up Huang Chao's flag and armor and returned to the camp!
How could Mu Anguo believe these words!
Originally, his subordinates got Huang Chao's flag and armor, which was a great military achievement. But now, the great achievements in the Paper World that could have captured Huang Chao alive were in front of him, but he missed it. The joy suddenly turned into regret. He wanted to cut off three generals with one knife.
In anger, he couldn't help but slapped Zhu Wen and the other two, and kicked him again. He didn't believe Zhu Wen's nonsense in his heart, and believed that Zhu Wen must have benefited from Huang Chao and released Huang Chao privately, but there was no evidence for the moment.
In the end, he had to keep calm on his face, but he asked someone to take a bag of gold, fifty taels per one, a total of twelve gold flasks, a total of 600 taels of gold, and rewarded three people.
"This is a reward to you, take it!"
