Chapter 222 New Concept War (IV)

The mining area, a previously prosperous mining area has now become a sea of ​​fire. In front of the warehouse of the mining area with hundreds of corpses, there are constant crying and screams of women from the shacks in the mining area, as well as the crazy laughter of Zheng army officers and soldiers. Many Zheng army rushed around in the shacks, searching for property, and people were constantly killed, and the entire mining area became hell.

A man who looked like a general of Zheng Jun laughed wildly and said, "We have gained a lot of money this time!"

The mining area was the last source of Wang Shichong's recruitment. There was no way, and the people who could be recruited had almost finished conscripting. Now even women in their thirties and forties were recruited to the army as servants. However, in the Songshan Mountains, due to kaolin, there are large and small refugee mining areas scattered here. Although these miners are poor, they are still on the line of food and clothing, and their bodies are relatively strong.

More than a hundred refugee miners who dared to resist were killed and four or five hundred of them were captured, most of whom were young and strong. With a little training, they could become cannon fodder and attract arrows or bed crossbows of the Tang army.

A person who looked like a lieutenant said: "This time, more than 580 people were recruited and a large amount of food and money was seized. It was a great contribution, right? In addition to these dozen girls...hahaha..."

These Zheng soldiers tied the hands of these miners with ropes, lined up in two lines like a string of gourds, and slowly began to move forward. At this moment, a soldier pulled a woman's hair from a cellar, and said with a grim smile: "I didn't expect there was a fish that slipped through the net here..."

The woman actually has no appearance, she is as thin as bean sprouts, she wants her breasts but not her butts: "Ah... Help!"

The officers and soldiers of Zheng kicked her down and cursed, "What are you howling, why are you howling? Let's go! After you go down the mountain and return to the military camp, you will let you howl enough!"

The girl lay on the ground, staring at the soldiers with a resentful expression, and her voice was shrill: "You...you beasts in human skin are better than the other ones to deal with us unarmed people! You must die well, and you must not die well!!!"

The officers and soldiers raised their hands and slapped the girl in the face: "It's quite fierce, curse, continue to curse, are you afraid of getting shit later, I'm going to take your surname..."

Li Damazi's eyes were about to break apart, and he shouted in a stern state: "Xiu Niang... Let my Xiu Niang go!"

Li Damazi held up a chisel and launched an attack on the Zheng army officers and soldiers. Yang Dazhuang, who had not yet touched the Zheng army's arrow, had to yell angrily: "Rebel, kill the officers and soldiers!"

The generals of Zheng Army saw Yang Dazhuang and others coming out of the grass and smiled grinning: "Shield soldiers come forward and catch the alive!"

The miners did not have any decent weapons, mainly hammers, hammers, crowbars, iron rods, hatchets or axes. The Zheng army soldiers also reacted very quickly. The shields held shields and formed a row to compress the miners.

Miners without training are not opponents of regular troops at all. Although miners will cooperate when mining mines, in this case, they fight on their own and rely on their bloody courage. However, bloody courage is bloody courage, after all, does not represent true strength.

One person is desperate and ten people are invincible. This is just an adjective and you have to divide the target. If you are a child, no matter how hard you work, you will definitely not be able to defeat a prepared strong man. The battle method of these miners is only equivalent to a child, while the Zheng army soldiers are adult strong men.

In just a quarter of an hour, these miners were also squeezed into the middle of the shield by their shields, unable to move, disarmed and tied up with ropes.

Mr. Hu and Yang Dazhuang were also surrounded by Zheng's soldiers, and they could hold on to one more incense stick.

call out!

A sharp roar suddenly sounded, and a crossbow arrow about one foot long broke through the sky and hit the temple of the Zheng army general. This short soft steel crossbow was made of mild steel and had a very close range. It only had an effective killing range of thirty to fifty steps. However, the strength of the steel crossbow was not small, and it directly penetrated the entire skull cavity, went to the left and came out on the right, and the strong impact force knocked the Zheng army general overturned.

Almost at the same time, metal trembled from all directions in the mining area, and crossbow arrows fell like raindrops. The proud Zheng army soldiers were all shot into arrows. Once they were shot, they were all passing through the front and back. The screams in the mining area were loud, and Zheng army officers and soldiers were on their backs and overturned, killing and injured.

The Zheng Jun captain was shocked and shouted loudly: "There is an ambush! There is———"

The word "ambush" just reached the tip of his tongue, and a crossbow arrow hit his mouth and penetrated straight to the back of his head. The arrowhead, carrying brain and blood, protruded a small piece from the back of his head.

The surviving Zheng army soldiers gasped for breath. What a terrible force!

A round of crossbow arrows came, and more than 200 officers and soldiers were shot over, completely messed up. The crossbow machine equipped by the Beiwei Army had a short range and great power. Since they needed to get close to the shooting, they crawled forward until they entered the distance of twenty or thirty steps beside the Zheng army soldiers. Of course, fortunately, Yang Dazhuang and others attracted the main attention of these Zheng army officers and soldiers. Otherwise, Liu Tong and the others would not have been able to sneak so successfully to the enemy's nose in broad daylight.

Looking at these Zheng army soldiers who were inferior to those of beasts, the anger in the hearts of these Beiwei army soldiers also burst out instantly. They seemed to have no intention of capturing them. One round of arrow rain followed another round of arrow rain without pausing at all.

At this time, the soldiers of the Zheng army seemed to be in a storm. They felt the sound of crossbow arrows tearing the air everywhere, and they could not see an enemy at all. The crossbow arrows of the Beiwei Army were short and the crossbow arms were short. They didn't need to stand up and line up to shoot arrows at the enemy in neat formations. They could still shoot arrows on the ground.

"Puchi phuchi..."

The sound of crossbow arrows entering the flesh sounded, and the shrill screams of the Zheng army soldiers. These Zheng army soldiers were actually not Zheng army soldiers. A month ago, they were farmers or gangsters in Luoyang City. Of course, they were bullied by one and were unstoppable. However, if they were asked to fight against the equally well-equipped army, they would probably throw down their weapons without hesitation and run away, and the fool would go up and fight to the death!

Now that they have been ambushed by the enemy, they are shot down in one encounter. If they don’t pee, they will be a miracle. The more timid, they are shaking all over. The more clever, they throw away the spoils in their hands and flee. Some officers are roaring, trying to organize these unscrupulous subordinates to fight for a way out.

The mining area is so big, and there are railings around miners who prevent wild beasts from invading. In a mess, so many people naturally crowded together, and no one could move. For a moment, screams, screams, and curses were endless, and they were in a very embarrassing way.

At this moment, the Zheng army soldiers who were fleeing in various places accidentally ran to the Beiwei army soldiers. At close range, the crossbow arrows had lost their effect. Xunxiang swung his head horizontally and slashed at a fleeing Zheng army soldier.

"Puff..."

The big head rolled onto the top like a ball, and the soldiers on the beheaded were like tigers and rushed into the flock of sheep. It was so wonderful that these Zheng soldiers who were just like wolves and tigers had turned into sheep at this time.

It is not because they became sheep, but because Liu Tong and Xunxiang specifically explained the key points of the subjugation, only killing the generals. At this time, Zheng Jun, a Yingyang General, two Yingyang Generals, four regiment corpses, and eight brigade commanders, were all shot and killed in the first time, and none of them were spared.

At this time, only a few of the generals of the Zheng army were left. The Zheng army soldiers who had lost their general commander were like a mess and could only escape in a panic.

The Beiwei Army soldiers who rushed into the Zheng army formation flew up and down with their swords, causing the Zheng army soldiers to cry and shout for their parents. In the chaos, the girl who was kicked and vomited blood laughed wildly, clapping her hands and shouting: "Good kill! Kill them all! I said you will not die well, now the retribution is coming? You deserve it, you deserve it!"

The surviving Zheng army soldiers shouted in panic: "Stop fighting, surrender, we surrender..."

The battle began in a hurry and ended very quickly. From the time when the first crossbow arrow was shot out to the end of the battle, it took only two incense sticks in front and after, and two incense sticks were about five minutes.

Originally, his hair was scattered and rushing left and right, and he looked crazy. Yang Dazhuang suddenly found that the Zheng army soldiers were kneeling on the ground. He suddenly found that hundreds of men dressed in rags appeared around him, like refugees. If you observe carefully, you will definitely find the problem. The people dressed as refugees, but they had evil spirits that were absolutely invisible to the refugees.

Mr. Hu's eyes were very poisonous, and he discovered who was among the strangers at first sight. He walked to Xunxiang and bowed and said, "Thank you for your life. I wonder how you are so proud of your surname and great name, where are you looking for?"

"Puchi, puchi..."

Xunxiang turned around, but saw the girl rushing up with a stone at this moment, smashing it hard on the head of the Zheng army officers and soldiers who had beaten him before, and screaming as they smashed: "Smash you to death, I will smash you to death!"

After only a few hits, the head of the Zheng army soldier was shattered and bloody. She was still smashing her lifelessly, shouting: "Smash you to death, smash you to death!"

"He is dead!" Li Damazi walked to the girl and said, "Xiang Niang, stop smashing it!"

The girl called Xiuniang turned a deaf ear and continued to smash the head of the Zheng army officer and soldier into a flat meat, but she still kept smashing it.

Li Damazi had no choice but to pull her away: "Don't smash it, he's already...Oh!"

Before he finished speaking, Xiuniang threw herself into Li Damazi's arms and howled and cried, choking while crying: "They are not humans...they are beasts...they are all beasts...they should all die."

I don’t want to find out the situation, and Liu Tong doesn’t want to.

They picked up the steel crossbow arrows and took them back. Now they were fighting behind enemy lines and there was no way to replenish the supplies. They really couldn't use the equipment of the Zheng army soldiers. Liu Tong and Xunxiang decided to do so, so they gave all the equipment from Zhechong Mansion to these miners.

Just when Liu Tong and Xunxiang were about to retreat, Mr. Hu led Yang Dazhuang and other miners to stop Liu Tong and Xunxiang and others and said, "I am in the lower Yizhou Hu Kui and Hu Dingyuan, I wonder who you are?"

Ancient characters are also signs of identity. Having characters can at least determine one thing: the other party is literate, or the other party is from aristocratic origin.

Liu Tong bowed and wrote a compilation: "In the Lingzhou Liu Tongwenji! Lord Hu Dong..."

Hu Kui pointed at Yang Dazhuang and said, "This Yang Dazhuang is the Lord of the Cave."

Liu Tong asked in confusion: "Master Yang Dong, what's going on? These officers and soldiers..."

Yang Dazhuang kicked the body of a Zheng army soldier who was cut out from a disastrously and said angrily: "To be honest, we fled from Hedong and Hebei. We set up a shack in this area, accompanied by wild animals, fed with tree bark and grass roots, spent time, and lived by mining mineral soil. The mined mineral soil was mined and transported to Luoyang for sale, and exchanged for some money to buy some food to make a living. Although life was difficult, there was always hope. But today, these beasts

He came to the mining area with murderous intent and wanted to recruit us into the army. He didn't give us a chance to survive. He killed him with a knife! Poor villagers, who were still in different places without knowing what happened. A few children who ran slowly were caught by them and were used to falling to the stones and fell to death! Are they soldiers of the court or butchers? We just want to dig some mines for a few money. We have never done anything illegal. Why did they kill us!"

Speaking of this, the burly man choked and tears came out: "I pity my wife, because she had a body, could not get up, and hid in the shack, but was burned to death by them with a fire. All animals were beasts!"

Xunxiang patted Yang Dazhuang on the shoulder and said, "Master Yang Dong, please feel sorry for me..."

As he spoke, he made a retreat gesture, the soldiers of Beiwei Army retreated one after another. This battle that annihilated more than 800 Zheng army members was already a great victory in other ordinary people, but it was not considered a military merit in the Beiwei Army because their goal was to capture Luoyang City.

Looking at the Beiwei Army soldiers who were retreating in an orderly manner, Hu Kui said, "General Liu, please wait!"

Xunxiang pressed his hand on the hilt of the horizontal knife, looked at Hu Kui suspiciously and asked, "There are only so many we can help, so you can do it yourself!"

Hu Kui said: "The two generals are the generals of the Tang Dynasty?"

Liu Tong became alert and shouted coldly: "Do you know us?"

Hu Kui quickly explained: "Don't misunderstand, two generals. Hu's father is the general of the Great Qi State Protection and the general of Yizhou. When Yang Jian defeated Qi, he broke his promise and became fat. The whole family of the Hu family in Yizhou vowed that he would never serve in the Sui Dynasty. Although Hu had never served in the official position, he still had this little bit of vision. You have hundreds of people in advance and retreat. You are the elite among the elite, and they are definitely not comparable to those of the refugees. The two generals think they have a major task, but I am afraid that it would be difficult to sneak into Luoyang if they want to hide the Zheng army at this time!"

Liu Tong asked, "Do you have a way?"

Hu Kui nodded and said, "Now the Luoyang city gates are closed, and the inside and outside are not connected. Now no one can enter Luoyang City. Luoyang City is not allowed to go out or enter at this time!"

Xunxiang was shocked when he heard this.

If they cannot enter Luoyang City, how else will they complete this task?

He is not so naive that he uses more than 600 people to capture Luoyang City.

Liu Tong looked at Hu Kui and smiled coldly, "Mr. Hu, please tell me what you have, no need to go around in circles."
Chapter completed!
