Eighth year of Chongzhen

Chapter 94 Dedication
Zhang Xianzhong kept a gloomy face and said nothing, just beating his horses and galloping. A few rogues on the road were knocked away by the horses. Their bones were broken and their tendons were broken.Yu Zhong hurriedly hid by the side of the road, and after more than a dozen riders ran past, the thieves cursed endlessly, and some even went back to the camp to get bows and arrows to prepare for revenge.The matter quickly reached Gao Yingxiang's ears, and Gao Yingxiang's murderous intent towards Zhang Xianzhong was even stronger.

Zhang Xianzhong's camp is located in the northwest corner of the Liuzei camp, on a slightly higher terrain.Different from the messy camps of other thieves, the camp dedicated to the camp is very neat.The big camp was separated from the outside by a shallow ditch of camp gates, and there was a camp gate made of giant wood on each side, guarded by soldiers at the camp gate.Although the soldiers' tents are also of various kinds and shapes, they are all arranged neatly, with certain gaps between the tents, and there are wide passages in the middle of each row of tents for the passage of soldiers and horses.

This is what Zhang Xianzhong learned when he was in the army, and then he taught the four sons the method of choosing a place to set up a camp. Among them, Sun Kewang and Li Dingguo learned it most seriously and solidly. The current camp is set up under the supervision and command of the two. That's right, for this Zhang Xianzhong specially praised the two names in front of everyone.

The bandit guarding the gate of the camp saw his main horse galloping from afar, so he hurriedly pushed aside the wooden fence and stepped aside, Zhang Xianzhong urged his horse to rush into the camp.Not long after, Sun Kewang and others followed and entered the camp one after another.Li Dingguo, who was at the end, slowed down his horse and ordered in a loud voice: "Close the gates of the camp! Call one hundred archers and three hundred spearmen for each of the four gates! No military orders are allowed to leave the camp! Anyone who comes to the camp should report quickly!"

Zhang Xianzhong didn't slow down his horse until he was in front of his big tent, reined in his horse and jumped down. The soldiers at the tent door hurried forward to take the reins, and led the yellow puma to wash and feed.

The two beautiful women in the big tent rushed out upon hearing the sound, Zhang Xianzhong immediately showed a smile on his face, stepped forward a few steps and hugged each other in his arms, and said with a lewd smile: "It just so happens that I am full of evil spirits, you two will be defeated by the master first." Let's talk about it after defeating the fire! Hahaha!"

A beautiful woman smiled coquettishly and said: "Who dares to offend the master! Don't be afraid that the master will chop him with a knife!"

Zhang Xianzhong entered the big tent with his arms around the two, and smiled as he walked, "I dare not cut him with a knife, but my gun dares to stab you! Hehehe~"

Another beautiful woman covered her mouth with a handkerchief and giggled, and the beautiful woman who spoke said coquettishly, "I'm not afraid of being stabbed, but I'm afraid that Master's gun will be useless!"

With a strange cry, Zhang Xianzhong let go of the snickering beautiful woman, squatted down slightly, and with strength on his arms, picked up the beautiful woman and ran to the back tent. He patted Zhang Xianzhong on the back and said with a smile: "Don't look at me being so slender, but I have great strength, hehehe~" Another woman followed into the inner tent, and after a while, there was an unbearable moan The sound came out.

Sun Kewang and others jumped off their mounts and stood outside the tent to wait. They had long been accustomed to the behavior of their adoptive father.Only Li Dingguo frowned secretly, he was very repulsed by the fact that his adoptive father kept women for fun in the army, but because of the righteousness of father and son, he was still unable to speak out to persuade him.

Half an hour later, two disheveled beautiful women walked out of the tent with spring faces on their faces. Under the greedy eyes of everyone outside the tent, they covered their mouths with their hands and smiled coquettishly as they walked towards their tent.

Li Dingguo said dissatisfiedly: "The battle is imminent, and the soldiers in the army saw women coming and going in and out of the adoptive father's tent. I'm afraid it will be bad for the army. Brother, when you find the right time, you still have to persuade the adoptive father. The rules in the army must not be broken!"

Sun Kewang is the oldest among Zhang Xianzhong's four sons, and he is respected as the elder brother by several people on weekdays. Because he is good at flattering his adoptive father, plus he has a keen mind and is good at fighting and resourceful, Zhang Xianzhong likes him very much.

"A man doesn't care about trifles, power and beauty are exactly what we seek, and the foster father is in his prime, this fact is unusual! Dingguo, you are 16 years old this year, and you are also an adult. You should be more righteous in your daily conversations." For the sake of the father, you must keep in mind the superiority and inferiority!" Sun Kewang said with a smile, he was very disapproving of Li Dingguo's seriousness.

Li Dingguo was dissatisfied, and wanted to defend himself, Liu Wenxiu, who had been close to him, grabbed his robe, and said with a smile: "There is no need to talk about this matter! My younger brother saw that the adoptive father's expression was different, could it be that Gao Chuang's words made it difficult for the adoptive father? ? As a son of man, we need to find out clearly, and it is only for the father to relieve his worries!"

Ai Nengqi, who was introverted, nodded vigorously to express his agreement.

Zhang Xianzhong treated the four of them like parents and children. In order to make them great weapons in the future, he specially recruited a scholar to teach them how to read and write, and collected military books and war books for them to read and memorize.The four of them have benefited a lot in the past two years, among which Li Dingguo is the most outstanding, not only has the most literacy, but also lights up and studies hard in his tent after practicing his soldiers on weekdays. Zhang Xianzhong once joked that he would be sent to take the imperial examination in the future , Maybe a scholar can come back.

Sun Kewang restrained his smile, and said, "Just now in Gao Chuang's big tent, the few of us waiting are far away from the adoptive father, and we can't hear the two of them talking. But Gao Chuang's temperament may not allow us to dedicate the camp. Secretly grow stronger, this time I am afraid that I will contribute to the camp!"

Li Dingguo said in a firm tone: "It's nothing more than sending us to dedicate a camp to attack the city! If you try your best to disregard the casualties, you can win Shouzhou! What I'm worried about is that our official cavalry is always behind us. If we don't solve our worries , It always gives people the feeling of a thorn in the back! King Gao Chuang has tens of thousands of fine cavalry in his hands, but he is not willing to fight recklessly! The official army cavalry is only more than two thousand, if I were King Gao Chuang, I would send a thousand cavalry to lure the enemy. The rest of the fine cavalry lie in ambush on both sides, wait for the officers and soldiers to enter the circle, and fight out together, even if they are not wiped out, there is no doubt that they will be severely injured!"

Sun Kewang sneered: "Gao Chuang is using those elite cavalry to intimidate others, how could he use them to fight for his life! Two thousand cavalry in the military area is nothing, didn't Gao Chuang send thousands of cavalry to confront him? This time to break Shouzhou , we must grab more food and grass, gold and silver are of no use, can people eat when they are hungry?"

Li Dingguo frowned and said, "The officers and soldiers won't just send cavalry. If I'm not mistaken, there must be a large army of officers and soldiers coming! The Shouzhou in front of us must be captured as soon as possible, otherwise it will be very troublesome!"

Liu Wenxiu nodded and said: "Second brother is absolutely right! The sooner Shouzhou is broken, the better for me to wait! With a lot of food and grass, I can leave calmly before the army comes. The state must be conquered as soon as possible!"

Sun Kewang said: "I waited to think of it, how could the foster father miss it? Just listen to the foster father's orders!"

While speaking, Zhang Xianzhong's deep voice came from the big tent: "Come in!"

Immediately after Sun Kewang took the lead, several people filed in, only to see Zhang Xianzhong, naked to the waist, sitting behind the big case.The big case in this set of accounts was created by someone he sent the year before last, and it completely imitated the style of the big case in the camp of the senior generals of the Ming Dynasty. After tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, of course you have to have a general's addiction.

After saluting, Sun Kewang said: "Father, did Gao Chuang have any troubles for you just now? The boy saw that the father's expression was different. Could it be that he has unexpected intentions? I hope the father will tell the children what difficulties there are, and the children are willing to be righteous. Father share your worries!"

Li Dingguo and the others also looked at Zhang Xianzhong together, their eyes were full of concern.

Zhang Xianzhong's heart warmed up, but he said disdainfully: "He is a horse dealer, but he can't help me! He just sees our strength grow day by day, and he is jealous! Being a father today is torn face with him, maybe After beating Shouzhou, he won't be able to tolerate me, Lao Zhang!"

Sun Kewang said angrily: "What is he trying to do! Although there are many others, we are not afraid of him when we offer camp!"

Ainengqi said in a muffled voice: "Father, I found him in his tent at night and killed him!"

Li Dingguo said anxiously: "Father, now we have to find a way to get out! Taking advantage of the fact that there is Shouzhou in the front and the army in the back, Gao Chuang dare not fight head-on! We have to find a way to get out when Shouzhou is captured. That's good!"

Liu Wenxiu said: "Father, second brother is resourceful, we'd better listen to his ideas!"

Sun Kewang glanced at Li Dingguo jealously, and said, "I haven't seen the scene of the foster father before? The foster father must have something to say about this!"

Zhang Xianzhong got up and bypassed the big case, and came to them with his hands behind his back, looked at them with loving eyes, and said with a smile: "My old Zhang is lucky in this life, a few fakes are better than real children! Don't worry, children, he is proud of you!" If you dare to be unkind, don't blame me, old Zhang, for being unrighteous! This time, I will definitely make him look good! When he loses his army and generals, he becomes a prodigal dog! Let's see if he dares to shout at my old Zhang! Hmph!"
