Chapter 167 Guerilla Tactics
When he heard the news that the officers and soldiers occupied Beiliu Village, they immediately divided their troops and began to go to the surrounding area to plunder. Zhao Er's donkey smiled and said to his subordinates, "This mother's officers and soldiers are really the best!" With such a good opportunity, if you don't cross the Qin River quickly, but plunder here, isn't this for us?
Several team generals under Zhao Er donkey also laughed and scolded the officials among the officers and soldiers as fools. So Zhao Er donkey asked about the where the two sentinels separated by the officers and soldiers, and immediately said, "That's what I'm waiting for. Since they help me so much, then our brothers Don't be polite to them! The scout just said that there is a group of more than 200 officers and soldiers who are attacking Guojiazhuang in the north. Let's not wait any longer. Let's take this opportunity to eat these officers and soldiers first! Pack up and go immediately!"
Not long after, Zhao Er donkey led his generals, walked out of the forest in the ditch, and rushed all the way to Guojiazhuang.
However, Guojiazhuang is fighting fiercely at this time. A lame-legged security chief stood on the wall of the village and shouted, commanding more than 100 township soldiers in Guojiazhuang and the officers outside the village to fight fiercely.
As soon as he learned that the officers and soldiers were coming, the chief security officer recruited all the villagers in the village to the wall of the village. After arriving here, the officers and soldiers asked them to open the village to surrender. As a result, the chief security officer and soldier who persuaded him to surrender fell under the wall without saying a word.
So this group of officers and soldiers immediately began to attack Guojiazhuang under the command of an officer, and the two sides killed each other in Guojiazhuang.
The township soldier team here belongs to the newly formed township soldier team. The training has not been carried out for a long time, so the combat effectiveness is not strong, and the weapons are also very poor. There are only five old birds, plus a small number of crossbows and some knives and guns. Most people only hold hoes and forks in their hands, so they are more equipped with more than their equipment. Many officers and soldiers fell into passivity as soon as the war began.
Fortunately, the morale of these villagers was not bad. In order to protect Zhuangzi, they dared to work hard. With only a limited number of weapons, they repelled the two attacks of the officers and soldiers and killed and injured more than a dozen officers and soldiers, but their resistance could only reach this level. After all, they were not trained enough, and they could follow him at the beginning. Our lame people resisted desperately, but once they encountered casualties, their morale plummeted and they hid under the wall one after another and dared not resist desperately.
This security officer was also a veteran sent by the Xingtian Army. Although he was lame on one leg, he was very brave. He stood on the wall of the village and fought desperately to resist the attack of the officers and soldiers, and constantly greeted the villagers to resist. Soon, he was in the sharp arrows of the two officers and soldiers, but he still stood on the wall of the village and fought. Looking at the lame security chief fighting so desperately, it aroused the morale of the villagers, so the villagers stood up again and fought desperately against the officers and soldiers under the wall.
However, the officers and soldiers were better trained and were much better equipped. Under the cover of bows and arrows, they finally attacked the Zhuang wall. After cutting down an officer and soldier, the chief security officer was immediately stabbed in the lower abdomen with a long gun by another officer and soldier who climbed up the wall. After snorting, he fell on his back to the wall. Before he died, he grabbed the long gun of the officer and soldier inserted in his stomach and roared freely to let the villagers continue to resist.
And the villagers in Zhuangzi couldn't hold on any longer at this time. At this time, they only heard the sound of a pop-like sound of birds outside the village. Then the officers and soldiers outside the village were in chaos, and some village soldiers immediately raised their eyes and looked out of the village. He went, and immediately cried, "Brothers, look! It's Xing Tianjun's coming! We are saved! We are saved! Kill it! Kill these bastards! ......”
The villagers on the wall looked out of the village one after another. They really saw a whistle dressed in gray and suddenly came out from behind the officers and soldiers. In the middle, a Xingtian army flag was already familiar to the local villagers. As soon as they appeared, they lined up and fired a row of guns at the officers and soldiers. Even if they knocked overturned a piece of officers and soldiers, they shouted. Then he rushed over. After the officers and soldiers who were still shouting outside the village were attacked by this group of Xing Tianjun, the formation immediately became in chaos.
The 400 Xingtian army troops were against more than 200 officers and soldiers. In addition, Zhao Erlu was suddenly attacked behind the officers and soldiers. The officers and soldiers who were caught off guard almost did not resist at all, so they were immediately defeated and fled by Zhao Er donkey. In an instant, the situation was reversed. Those officers and soldiers who had just climbed the wall, If the situation is not good, how dare you stay on the wall! So they turned around and climbed down from the village wall. Some officers and soldiers had no time to escape. They were forced by the village soldiers in the village to jump directly from the village wall. As a result, they were either killed by falling to death under the village wall on the spot, or their legs were broken under the village wall and lay on the ground screaming.
Zhao Er donkey was so happy that he led his troops to chase and kill them. It was the people who killed more than 200 officers and soldiers. He immediately knocked down half of the officers and soldiers, and the rest also caught them and ran away on the spot. In the end, only a few officials rode horses. Seeing that the situation was not good, they immediately abandoned their men and rode away from this place, and finally got In order to escape, Zhao Er donkey suffered very few casualties, which was disproportionate at all.
After the war, Zhao Erlu asked the township soldiers to clean the battlefield, leaving behind the three injured men in the battle, and left all the weapons captured by the officers and soldiers to the township soldiers in Guojiazhuang. At the same time, he also left 20 soldiers and a chief, who were responsible for leading the township soldiers of Guojiazhuang to enhance the defense ability here to prevent the officers and soldiers from turning back. Revenge, and he kept leading his men and pounced on the next group of officers and soldiers who were robbing another village.
Ma Liancheng was immediately shocked after hearing the statements of several officers and soldiers who fled from Guojiazhuang. Originally, he thought that the thieves stationed in Beiliu Village had withdrawn to the thief's nest in Yangcheng. He didn't think that they had not left at all, but he played a game of hide-and-seek with them here and took the opportunity to eat them. He has more than 200 men.
So he quickly sent someone to pick up the other group of plundered men, but it was still a step slower. When he sent people to pick up the other officers and soldiers to find the group of officers and soldiers, the group had already been annihilated. Almost none of the two hundred officers and soldiers were killed by Zhao Erlu. Just because when Zhao Er donkey found them, they had already invaded a village and were doing evil in the village and slaughtering the villagers in the village. As a result, they were blocked in the village by Zhao Er donkey, and almost none of them escaped.
The people who connected this group of officers and soldiers were also shot by Xing Tianjun and fled the Zhuangzi in a hurry.
As soon as Ma Liancheng heard the return from his men, he immediately led his army to the Zhuangzi who appeared in Xing Tianjun. However, when they arrived there, the Zhuangzi went empty again, leaving only the broken bodies of the officers and soldiers of the Zhuangzhuang. So Ma Liancheng immediately sent someone to track the wheres of the Xing Tianjun, and soon sent out to explore the horse. It is reported that this team of Xing Tianjun is escorting the people of the village to a place called Qingsonggou near Qinshui.
When he learned that there were only more than 300 people in the Xingtian army, Ma Liancheng was cruel and insisted on annihilating this group of thieves. Otherwise, leaving this group of thieves on the east bank of the Qinhe River, he was not worried about crossing the Qin River. Once the back road was cut off, it would not a good thing for him.
So he immediately led his troops to Qingsonggou, but when he led his troops to Qingsonggou, he did not see any trace of Xing Tianjun. At this time, he came to report that after entering Qingsonggou, the thief army ran from the other side of Qingsonggou to Jinjiazhuang in the east.
Ma Lian's anger is seven orifices of smoke. This group of thieves of the Xing Tianjun are really too cunning. They pulled these two thousand soldiers and horses and circled around the mountains in this area. They did not fight with them head-on at all. As a last resort, they had no choice but to lead their soldiers to Jinjiazhuang again.
As a result, after arriving at Jinjiazhuang, the house was still empty again, and the villagers in the village were gone. They sent to search. It turned out that the people of Jinjiazhuang fled into the mountain with the thieves before the officers and soldiers came. Now they don't know where they are going.
After two days, Ma Liancheng took two thousand people under his command to go around here and sent countless horses. Every time he found the trace of this group of thieves, he rushed over and rushed to the air. As a result, the tired people were tired, but they could not catch the thieves.
On the third day, the news came from Beiliu Village, which had been occupied by the officers and army. It was said that a group of thieves suddenly killed Beiliu and tried to break into the battalion of the officers and soldiers in Beiliu, so he quickly led his troops back to Beiliu Village. As a result, when he came back, the group of thieves disappeared again, but they were killed and injured. Dozens of officers and soldiers who stayed in the Beiliu Battalion.
This time made Ma Liancheng mad. He learned the cunning of the thief army this time. He didn't expect that there were less than 400 thieves, but they played with so many officers and legions like monkeys, but they could never catch this group of thieves. They slowed down half a beat every time, and could only smell fart behind the buttocks of this group of thieves.
At this time, a subordinate said to Ma Liancheng, "Ma Shoubei, there is no way to go on like this. We may be dragged down by this group of thieves!" It's better to find a way to force them out! Save so many of our brothers from messing around in this area every day.
Ma Liancheng immediately asked, "So what can you do to force this group of thieves out?"
The general manager immediately said, "The purpose of this group of thieves is obvious, but they don't want us to cross the Qinhe River and enter their territory in Hexi. At present, the summer is coming. Obviously, the thief army is afraid that after we cross the river to Hexi, we will destroy the food in the fields of the unsidents. Instead of this, we are not If you take the opportunity to pull out the camp and go to the Qinhe River, you will make the appearance of crossing the river, forcing this group of thieves to appear. After they appear, it will not be too late for us to deal with them!"
