Chapter 115 Killing Demons(1/2)
Liyang, school field.
"rush!!"
Dugujie gave the order and the war drums sounded. The county soldiers raised the ladders in their hands and, under the protection of the shield bearers, rushed forward. When they arrived outside a high wall, the county soldiers began to set up the ladders and the shield hands raised their hands naturally.
Pick up the shield and start climbing.
On the edge of the fence in the distance, there are several soldiers' heads hanging.
Liyang's six teams of county soldiers now have different training subjects for each team, and they are training separately in various places.
Du Gujie walked back and forth among the teams, urging them to practice.
There were loud shouts of killing in the school grounds. That is to say, the school grounds are located far away from residential buildings, so there was no disturbance to the residents.
Compared with their initial state, the county soldiers have indeed undergone earth-shaking changes. They are no longer as idle as they used to be. They carry the ladder and charge again and again. They really have some momentum and look presentable.
Even standing here, they stood upright, looking excited and excited, not as half-dead as before.
When Liu Taozi rode a blue lion and led everyone to appear at the gate of the school ground, Dugujie went to greet him very excitedly.
Dugujie quickly walked up to Liu Taozi and bowed before him, "Mr. Liu!!"
Liu Taozi nodded, and then looked at the county soldiers in front who were practicing.
At this moment, they can finally be called soldiers. They are all wearing new military uniforms and have complete weapons. All of them are wearing light armor, and they can tell the difference between officers and soldiers at a glance.
Dugujie stood beside Taozi with his hands on his hips, turned around and looked at everyone, proudly preparing to show the results to Taozi.
"gather!!"
He gave the order, and immediately the soldiers raised the flag and beat the war drum, the sound was short and loud.
The sound of war drums sounded, and everyone who was practicing quickly stopped and began to look for the location of the general's flag and war drums. After finding the target, the captain quickly rectified his soldiers and started running towards this side.
The speed of the gathering was not too fast. The captain yelled and cursed loudly. The soldiers ran swaying. Occasionally they bumped into the people in front of them and were whipped by the captain several times. The voices of the captains echoed each other, which was extremely chaotic.
After a moment of noise, the six teams finally slowly lined up in front of Liu Taozi and others. It couldn't be said to be very neat, but it could be seen that it was a formation.
Dugujie's face was very ugly at this moment, and he no longer had the pride he had just now.
He glanced at Liu Taozi, his face a little embarrassed, "It wasn't like this before, the gathering was very fast, but this time we changed positions and gave the order suddenly."
"Dugu Gong, there is no need to say more."
"They could kill someone?"
"If I can kill, I specially found the death row inmates who participated in the rebellion before and ordered them to be executed. They have all seen their blood."
Liu Taozi nodded.
"To be able to train them to this point within ten days, Dugu Gong is really a talented person."
Hearing Liu Taozi's words, Dugujie really had mixed feelings in his heart. Since leaving the army, he had not heard such praise for many years, and he had taken a lot of blame.
Liu Taozi stepped forward and looked at the army in front of him.
"I am the county magistrate Liu Taozi!!"
"I also asked Dugu Gong to train you!!!"
Liu Taozi's voice was so loud that Dugujie couldn't help but look at him a few more times. It was a pity that such a voice could not be used as a messenger.
The county soldiers looked at the tall and strong man on the horse and looked at each other with excitement in their eyes.
Liu Taozi looked at everyone, "Practice troops for a thousand days, use them for a moment!!"
"Everyone has been practicing for ten days, and today is the time to see results!!"
"Today I will personally lead the army to suppress the rebellion! If it succeeds, it will prove that the county soldiers are still useful! From now on, two meals a day, winter clothes and weapons will be distributed just like these ten days!!"
"If things don't work out, don't practice again, just like the past story!!"
The county soldiers were immediately in an uproar. They exchanged looks and started talking in low voices. Dugujie also frowned. When Liu Taozi asked him to counter the rebellion, he knew it must be for some important matter. Now he said he wanted to counter the rebellion.
, but what kind of rebellion are we going to put down?
Liu Taozi looked at Dugujie, who took out Lou Rui's handwriting.
"Here is this handwritten letter from the prefect, ordering me to take charge of the political and military affairs in Liyang!!"
"Where is Lieutenant Dugujie?!"
"The end is here!!"
"I want you to help me lead the army and go to Chongguang Temple immediately! The thieves and monks in Chongguang Temple secretly forged armor, made bows and crossbows, set up banners, bought drums and gold, and deceived the ignorant people by saying: The dead of the tallest are in black!!"
"The evidence is conclusive! There is no doubt that the intention is to rebel! Send troops immediately to defeat it!!"
If the person standing in front of him was Zhao Kai, he would definitely ask, but this person was Dugu Jie. After hearing the military order, he instinctively did not refute or question. He just coldly performed a military salute and said, "General.
Follow orders!!"
He looked at the people behind him and said, "March in formation!! Set off one by one!!"
The county soldiers had no idea what was going on. They quickly lined up according to the drills of the past few days. On Dugujie, they began to loudly issue various orders. One by one, they went out from the gate of the school field to ride on the Dugujie.
He got on the big horse and was directing them to move forward.
Yao Xiong was very excited. He tightened his grip on the handle of the knife and said, "Brother!! Please be the pioneer!!"
"You can board with me later!"
"only!!"
Tian Zili looked confused, and said quickly: "Brother, is it true that the prefect asked you to quell the rebellion??"
Liu Taozi glanced at him, but he didn't say anything, but Tian Zili knew everything, but he was not afraid. He suddenly laughed and pulled out the knife ferociously, "Who cares about that! Today we will do it
Follow my brother to ascend first and kill these evil monks!!!"
Marching is indeed not a simple matter. After these county soldiers left the school field, the formation once again became chaotic. Liu Taozi was driving in the middle of the team, but Dugujie had to run back and forth to ensure that the people in front did not run too fast.
Those behind can keep up.
Dugujie seemed to have returned to the time when he first started training the army. He became extremely irritable and yelled, and the county soldiers marched in the direction of Chongguang Temple in a chaotic manner.
Along the way, the people in the city were so frightened that they hid in their houses and did not dare to go out.
The entire main road became very empty. The county soldiers passed through Nancheng and finally arrived in front of Chongguang Temple.
Chongguang Temple is backed by the city wall, with tall walls on three sides. At this moment, Chongguang Temple is still as quiet and deserted as before.
"Dugujie! You send people to surround the entire Chongguang Temple. If you let one person escape, you will be punished by military law!!"
"only!!"
"Li Sheng, you take teams A and B to the left!"
"Zhao Sanlang! You take Team C and Team D to the right side!!"
“Don’t let anyone run away!!”
Dugujie issued an order, leaving the county soldiers of the Wu and Ji teams at the front.
The movement outside finally aroused the alert of Chongguang Temple. Someone climbed up the wall of the courtyard and said, "Mr. Liu!! What do you want to do?!"
Liu Taozi was unmoved. He slowly dismounted. Yao Xiong immediately ran over with his armor and put on the armor for Liu Taozi himself. This armor was really good and looked very thick and strong. Dugu Jie could tell that this was
Armor only owned by the knights in the prefect's family.
Liu Taozi put on his heavy armor, and then took out his Huajing sword. He raised the sword and slowly pointed it at Chongguang Temple in front of him.
"attack!!!"
The heavy drums sounded and the flag was raised. At this moment, the county soldiers carried the ladder and rushed towards the courtyard wall in front of them.
Monk Hu saw the scene in front of him and screamed in fright.
Soon, a large number of warrior monks appeared on the courtyard wall. They stood on the courtyard wall at a loss and just shouted.
These monks were trained to bully the people, not to fight against officers and soldiers, and they had never had any experience in defending a city. They never thought that someone would stage a siege for them.
One after another, the ladders were leaning against the courtyard wall, and even higher than the courtyard wall. The county soldiers clung to the ladders, but this courtyard wall was different from the wall they used for training, or they did not control their center of gravity.
, the ladder suddenly fell sideways, and the county soldier struggled to hold it on, but failed, and the ladder next door was knocked over as well.
Before the two sides even fought, the county soldiers had already suffered casualties.
Dugujie's old face was dark, and now he was roaring hysterically, "Hold up! How did I teach you?!"
The sword and shield hand held a large shield and began to climb.
The man with the sword and shield was crawling when he suddenly stepped on the air and fell directly from the top.
There were more casualties.
Fortunately, their opponents are not elite.
Several monks were struggling to push away the ladder. I don't know if they were pushing in the wrong direction or something. They missed and screamed and fell from the courtyard wall. They fell in front of the county soldiers and could no longer move.
There was also a monk who was about to pick up something and throw it down, but he pushed his companion down with an elbow.
The two sides haven't even fought yet, but they have already suffered casualties.
To be continued...
