Chapter 114 Fighting

However, the situation expected by the officers and soldiers and Feng Gouzi is basically not the same. The speed of action of the officers and soldiers is far less than the speed of preparation on the Xing Tianjun's side. Within two days, the Xing Tianjun collected the main force and went outside of Dongye Town to set up a camp, and all kinds of materials were constantly replenished to the army. I'm ready to fight against the officers and soldiers.

However, the officers and soldiers in Zezhou were linger. They had been linger for nearly ten days before they were ready in Zezhou and began to make a vow to set out in the direction of Yangcheng.

Along the way, the scouts and soldiers sent by the Xingtian Army constantly monitored their actions, and constantly sent the information back to the Xingtian Army camp in Dongye Town.

"It's really true for Feng Gouzi! This officer is so slow that he is just like a snail. It's only more than 100 miles from Zezhou to us. If it were our forced army, we could get there in a day, but these officers and soldiers can only travel less than 30 miles a day, and it will take at least four days to get to us! Humph! At this speed, he still wants to destroy us, unless his mother's sun comes out in the west!" Luo Li stood behind Xiao Tianjian and looked at a hanging map and said to the other generals.

"Yes, the brothers have been waiting here for a few days, and they are practicing non-stop every day. It can be said that the morale is like a rainbow. His mother's hands have been itching for a long time. Just wait for the officers and soldiers to come and clean them up!" Yan Chongxi also said with his voice.

Wang Chengping stood behind the crowd and listened to Xiao Tianjian's group of old brothers. He couldn't help sighing. He was also a horse thief. Although he had fought against the government a lot before, they were basically guerrilla warfare. When they met a small group of officers and soldiers, they would fight if they could fight. If they couldn't fight, they would run away. They often walked away with one blow and never Dare to fight against a large group of officers and soldiers.

And Xing Tianjun's gang seemed to be bold. With their 2,000 troops alone, in the face of four or five thousand officers and soldiers from Zezhou, they seemed to have nothing to do. Not only did they not mean to be afraid at all, but they were in a hurry to fight one by one, and they didn't pay attention to the officers and soldiers at all.

This can't help but make Wang Chengping admire Xiao Tianjian more. As a civilian army, Xiao Tianjian can make his subordinates like this. It's really not what ordinary people can do. Even if he was born as a horse thief and has been in charge of the plate, he has to admire Xiao Tianjian to death.

The calmness of the generals made Wang Chengping much more at ease, so he also stared at the map and began to actively think of ways.

Xiao Tianjian looked at the map and turned to analyze the crowd: "When the officers and soldiers come from Zezhou, there is only one official road to go. They will not choose the path to act, and after they come to Yangcheng, they have to meet the local villages in Yangcheng County first.

The officials of Yangcheng County will never dare to put so many officers and soldiers into the city. Otherwise, thousands of officials and soldiers will enter the city, and Yangcheng County will basically be almost the same as being robbed, so I am sure that the villagers in Yangcheng County will choose a place in the east of the city to meet the officers and soldiers in Zezhou.

Look at the map. Their best camp is also in Taipingzhuang, five miles east of the city. The terrain here is flat and more suitable for the army to gather and camp. The materials provided by Yangcheng County to the officers and soldiers will definitely be transported here first and provided for the officers and soldiers! And my idea has just been confirmed by Feng Xi. There should be no mistake!

Although we don't plan to let them meet, we still can't leave these grain supplies provided by Yangcheng County to the officers and soldiers, so we have to go here to a sentinel, take some soldiers, and take this batch of supplies back!

As for the place where we intercept the officers and soldiers to enter Yangcheng, I think it is best to choose the Beiliuzhuang area east of the Qinhe River. The terrain here is more suitable for us and the officers and the army, and it is also more suitable for chasing after the war. As long as we defeat the officers and soldiers here, the officers and soldiers will flee in the direction of Zezhou. We You can chase all the way to the area of Zhouzhuang. In this way, a large area on the Qinhe side will also be our territory in the future! Basically, we can control the official road from Yangcheng to Zezhou. In the future, Yangcheng County will have to act according to our faces. If we don't let them pass, it will be difficult for officials here to go to Zezhou. They can only choose to go north to Qinshui County and take a detour to Zezhou!

So this time if we don't fight, we won't fight. If we want to do it, we have to completely beat the officers and soldiers in Zezhou. In a short time, they will have no strength or courage to come back to our trouble!

According to the news from Zezhou, the officers and soldiers will arrive in the area of Beiliu in another day and a half. Today, we will pull out the camp and rush to Beiliu first to wait for the arrival of the officers and soldiers!

Li Shuanzhu listens to the order!"

Xiao Tianjian pointed to the map and explained his battle deployment to his generals and began to issue orders.

"The end will be!" After Li Shuanzhu heard their names, he immediately straightened his chest and replied.

Judging from the news, the villagers in Yangcheng and the inspectors here have begun to transport the grain and other things from the supply army out of the city. It is estimated that they will be transported to Taipingzhuang tonight. Your task is to focus on your sentry soldiers, and at the same time bring a hundred hunters to cooperate, and then mobilise the township soldiers in several villages near there as a supplement. Go and solve this group of people in Yangcheng County for me, and grab all the grain and bald things for me!" Xiao Tianjian ordered him.

Without saying a word, Li Shuanzhu immediately straightened his chest and took the order, "The last general got the order. Don't worry, the general can't run away from them!"

"In addition, don't kill too much for the local villagers. After this war, we are going to seize the northern part of the county. After all, most of the villagers are also locals, and they are basically poor. They follow the orders of the talents to fight against us. If they kill too much, their relatives will inevitably hate us, which is not conducive to our control of the county in the future. Northern region!" Xiao Tianjian then ordered him.

"The last will remember! At worst, let them go or catch them back! If we can't kill, we will kill as little as possible!" Li Shuanzhu immediately agreed.

"If the rest of the people wait, don't wait. Leave this to Feng Gouzi to watch. You all rush to the north with me and wait for the officers and soldiers to come over!"

With Xiao Tianjian's order, Xing Tianjun, who gathered in Dongye Town, began to pull up the camp. Feng Gouzi, Li Shuanzhu, Liu Bao and others saw Xiao Tianjian lead the rest of the main force on the road to Beiliu.

March 17 is also a day to remember for Xing Tianjun. This is the first large-scale battle with the officers and soldiers after Xing Tianjun settled in Yangcheng. It is also the largest military operation after they entered Shanxi. Nearly 2,000 Xing Tianjun set foot on the road to the battlefield.

A sentry army carried their weapons, carried their armor, stepped on the unique drums of the Xingtian Army, and strode on the road in the countryside, while the cavalry of the scouts set out one step ahead and began to explore the way in front of the team, while cleaning up the possible enemy's. Scout, cover the action of the main force.

Wang Chengping's elite cavalry team acted with the main force. In the center of the team, it was the vehicles of the army carrying various tents, grain and other things. They quickly left the area of Dongye Town and walked out of their control area.

In the two or three villages that passed along the way, the villagers poured out of the village one after another and sent the Xing Tianjun out on an expedition. At this time, the villagers completely believed what their security chief said. Xing Tianjun not only did not escape this time, but also had to go out to meet the officers and soldiers under the leadership of Xiao Tianjian, so they were no longer suspicious. They all came out to see Xing Tianjun off.

When the villagers saw the Xingtian Army's brigade passing by their village, they were stunned. Although they had seen the soldiers of the Xingtian Army before, most of the time they saw the team. They had never seen such a large army as Xing Tianjun.

Today, as soon as I saw the soldiers of Xing Tianjun, I was a little stunned. I saw that the soldiers of the Xing Tianjun were all embarrassed and dazzling, and everyone was wearing gray leggings. Even if their clothes were a little messy, their neat pace was still amazing.

The whole Xing Tianjun's team marched on the road, in rows, with knives and guns like a forest, and was not chaotic at all. Even the steps they stepped on were almost the same. Every time they fell on the drums of the drummers in the army, the pace was not chaotic at all, and no one left the team without authorization. The whole Xingtian Army's soldiers It seems to be a high morale, and there is a kind of murderous spirit faintly.

This kind of murderous spirit is only experienced by Xing Tianjun in dozens of battles, large and small, which has experienced in the past year. Coupled with strict training, everyone is full of essence and a very solemn look. When they see villagers see them off by the roadside, everyone deliberately straightened their chest and settled down. He deliberately hit the ground with the soles of his feet, making his footsteps louder.

When many big feet landed neatly, the sound formed a roar, and then walked forward like a black dragon.

Seeing the strong military power of Xing Tianjun, the villagers were much more relieved. They couldn't help but start cheering for them. Suddenly, the whole village cheered.

And Xiao Tianjian also rode on his yellow horse and slowly followed the team through these villages. When each villager saw Xiao Tianjian, they immediately recognized him and quickly knelt down and kowtowed to Xiao Tianjian. Xiao Tianjian also bowed to them on the back of the horse. Some villagers also patted with their little grain left. Some cakes ran out of the fortress for the soldiers of the Xingtian Army, and some people even boiled a few eggs they had finally accumulated, and quickly ran out of the fortress for the soldiers of the Xingtian Army.

Such a scene moved Xiao Tianjian and his soldiers. Just for the sake of these ordinary people, they feel that it is worth fighting this battle. For these people who love them, even if they die before the battle, there is nothing to regret.

Originally, the soldiers did not dare to accept the things that the common people gave them, but some ordinary people cried and insisted that they accept it. Finally, Xiao Tianjian personally ordered that they could accept their intentions, and then the soldiers dared to accept it.

"See no brothers! Why do the people treat us like this? Just because we treat them as people, they regard us as relatives, and those who win the hearts of the people win the world. With these ordinary people supporting us, will we still be afraid of the officers and soldiers?

Xiao Tianjian asked the soldiers who passed by!

"Don't be afraid! ..." The generals in the army answered loudly.

"Our Xing Tianjun..."

"Mighty!"

"Our Xing Tianjun..."

"Bight to win!"

So under the guidance of the officers, the soldiers roared loudly.
