Chapter 155 Breaking
(Who, who, who said that pig's feet can only defend? Hey hey! Pig's feet can also defend and fight back! Of course, this is still to accumulate strength in the future! Isn't it? Come on, bring the red ticket! Ha ha!)
Yang Luting walked very carefully all the way, especially after leaving Fengxiang County and entering Liyang County. He was much more cautious. While escorting the team to move forward carefully, he repeatedly told the custoler of all villages on the road and asked them to obey the dispatch.
But the officers and soldiers are still officers and soldiers after all. Although they came to Yanyang under the banner of suppressing bandits this time, the people who passed were suffering. The discipline of the officers and soldiers and the township brave army was extremely bad. Along the way, they often robbed the villages they passed by. They could not harm the village and fort, so some small villages became their looting. The goal.
Almost such things happen every day. The officers and soldiers and those villagers raise the banner of suppressing bandits, but they do the act of burning, killing and looting. Along the way, the people avoid the wind. However, many people are still copied by them all the only food and valuable things in their homes, and there are also officers and soldiers and village women near the village soldiers. He rushed into the barracks and humiliated them wantonly. Although the people scolded, there was nothing they could do about them.
Although some ordinary people went to the military camp to complain afterwards, these ordinary people were not driven away by random sticks, but were directly killed by the evil soldiers.
Yang Luting is not a good thing in this regard. In his opinion, it is impossible for the officers and soldiers to work before the battle without giving them some sweetness. He didn't see all such things. He simply turned a blind eye to the evil deeds of his soldiers and generals, as long as they obey the orders and follow the army. As for committing such a thing, he I didn't ask at all.
In this way, these people along the way suffered. They suffered from the disaster but had no way to sue. They could only bear this evil breath with tears. Some people even prayed secretly. This time, it was the same time to let these bastard officers and soldiers go to Tianlongzhai. They were beaten by the Xing Tianjun of Tianlongzhai. It's best to die. They harm the place.
In this way, Yang Luting escorted the brigade and slowly rushed to Tianlongzhai all the way. They walked for more than five days.
On the morning of the third day of July, it was not until the three poles on the sun that Yang Luting ordered all the soldiers and horses, began to pull out the camp, and began to rush forward with 3,000 soldiers and horses. After arriving in this area, the gully and the mountain road was very difficult to walk. Three thousand people ate horses and consumed a lot of food and grass every day, so they carried half of them with the army. Months of grain and fodder also robbed a lot of people's grain along the way, and walking in the mountain road was much slower.
At least there are some thin clouds in the sky, which has reduced the heat a lot, but even so, the officers and soldiers walking on the road are still sweating hotly and muttering complaints.
Yang Luting rode a yellow horse in the middle of the army. He couldn't help looking up at the surrounding terrain. He lowered his head and asked, "Where have we been?" What's ahead?"
The soldiers immediately replied, "Go back to the general, if you can't go five miles further, it is the Stone Buddha Temple. Where can the general rest? It's just that the Stone Buddha Temple was destroyed by the rebels in the early years, and now there is no monk!"
Yang Luting turned his head and looked at the terrain, so he ordered to go down: "Tell the front team, speed up, and you can rest when you get to the Stone Buddha Temple!"
So the officers and soldiers of the brigade were in front and rushed to the front. However, as soon as they had just walked more than four miles from the Stone Buddha Temple, they saw a fast horse coming from the front of them. They rushed straight into the front army regardless. They were so shocked that the officers and soldiers in front flashed to both sides of the road one after another and watched the rush. He cursed at the scout of the Chinese army.
But the good eyes immediately saw that the situation seemed to be wrong. There were still two arrows in the buttocks of the scout's horse, and an arrow in the back of the scout, so they immediately closed their mouths and realized that there might be something wrong with the scouts in front of them.
Yang Luting rode on the horse and slowly followed the team. Suddenly, he saw a chaos in front of him. Soon he saw a horse rushing over, so he quickly pulled the rein and stopped. His own soldiers immediately stepped forward to stop the running horse. The scout on the back of the horse tilted his body and fell off the war horse and shouted, "The little one is tight. If you want the military affairs, you need to meet the guard!"
As soon as the soldiers saw the tragic appearance of the scout, they did not dare to neglect it. They immediately ran to Yang Luting with him.
Yang Luting's heart thumped and then sank. He didn't wait for the scout to speak near him, so he shouted and asked, "What's going on in front of you?"
The scout was put on a stand in front of Yang Luting with his wounds and cried, "Lord the guard, when I went to the front today to explore the way and passed the Stone Buddha Temple, I was suddenly attacked by a group of thieves. The seven brothers of the little ones were folded in their hands. Only the little luckily broke through and came back to report to the guard!"
Yang Luting's heart tightened and asked harshly, "How many people are there in the thief army?" Have you figured it out?"
The scout's eyes were flustered. Although they set out early this morning, they did not dare to leave the army too far. On the road, they made a circle. They robbed a small village with only a dozen families on their way, and also robbed two village girls by the way. They left the small village and walked to the stone Buddha. When they were in the temple, they saw that the stone Buddha temple was relatively clean, so they planned to share what they got and play with women by the way.
But I didn't think that as soon as they entered the Stone Buddha Temple, they were immediately tied up by a group of unknown people hiding in it. However, this scout got off the horse and peed on the roadside because he was in a hurry to pee uphill. He took a step slower into the Stone Buddha Temple. As a result, he narrowly escaped his life, but even so, he still It was the enemy soldier who was driven out who shot an arrow and fled back to report the news.
"They have... at least dozens of people, oh! No! At least there are more than 100 people! There is no sign, so the little one can't confirm their identity yet!" The scout fled in a panic and had no chance to enter the Stone Buddha Temple to investigate the situation. He only saw more than a dozen people rush out of the Stone Buddha Temple to chase and kill him, so he simply made it up to prevaricate Yang Luting's question.
After listening to this, Yang Luting was a little relieved and looked around the surrounding terrain. Although the terrain on both sides of the place are relatively high, there is very little vegetation. It is not like a suitable place for ambush. It is expected that even if the Xing Tianjun gets the news of them to suppress it, he will hide in Tianlong Village. It was dangerous inside, and it should not run out for dozens of miles and fight with them here, so I was relieved a lot.
If according to this scout, the stone Buddha temple may have been occupied as an old nest by a small pole during this period after it was destroyed by the chaotic army. Today, it is also bad luck for them to dare to attack so many officers and soldiers on themselves, then suppress this small pole on the way. Son, it's good for their heads to sacrifice the flag, and it's good to strengthen the military prestige.
So he asked someone to take the injured scout down and bandage the arrow first, and ordered, "It is said that Mr. Liu Qian came to see me!"
Not long after, an officer with a cross-faced face quickly came from the front, came to Yang Luting and stepped in and held his fist and said, "Mr. Liu Fang, I don't know what do you want to order?"
"Mr. Liu Qian, just came to report that he encountered the whereabouts of a small thief in the Stone Buddha Temple in front of him and lost several scouts. You take the people of the headquarters, and I will give you another 300 township soldiers. I will cooperate with you to take a step forward and rush to the Stone Buddha Temple to eliminate this thief! I have won this battle, and I will remember your first achievement!"
Liu Fang turned his eyes a few times and asked first, "I'm obedient, but I don't know how many thieves are in front of me?"
Yang Luting replied coldly, "You can rest assured about this. According to the report, the number of thieves perched in the Stone Buddha Temple will not be more than 100, but just a small poles perched here! With your headquarters, plus 300 villagers, it should be more than enough to take them down! Are you afraid of such a small pole?
After listening to this, Liu Fang was relieved and immediately patted his chest and shouted, "Lord Yang, I, I, Liu, have not followed you for a day or two. How can you not understand your subordinates? When are you afraid? Not to mention a hundred and ten thieves, even if the Xing Tianjun comes together, his subordinates will never say a word of fear! Please rest assured, my subordinates will take the troops forward and take the heads of those Xiaoxiao who dare to kill us!"
Yang Luting nodded with a smile and said, "How can I not know Mr. Liu Qian's bravery? But you should be more careful when you go here. Although there are not many thieves, don't be careless. This time we are going to Tianlongzhai to destroy the Xing Tianjun. We must not overturn the boat in the gutter here and break our morale!"
Liu Fang took the order loudly, and his heart was nothing more than a hundred and ten thieves. If I couldn't even take them, wouldn't it be too bad? If there is a large army of soldiers and horses in front of him, he may still hesitate, but there are only such a few thieves, and he is still afraid of nothing!
So Liu Fanghu Biao returned to the team, shouted, and went to summon 300 villagers. He followed the more than 200 officers and soldiers under his command and told them that there was a small pole in front of them to destroy it. So more than 500 people accelerated their speed and rushed to the Stone Buddha Temple.
