Traveler Major League

Chapter 5 Ambush
The first thing that came into view were a dozen officials on horseback wearing official uniforms. This group of people was talking and laughing, seemingly defenseless.

"Huh? There is actually a young man carrying firewood?" Liu Ze asked Brother Yu strangely.

Brother Yu made a silent gesture and patted Liu Ze on the shoulder.

The officer and the young man who carried the firewood seemed to know each other, and after a wink and a greeting, they continued on their way.

Oh, it turned out that it was Yin Zi who arranged for him to relax his vigilance by the second brother.

No wonder these officials are so bold. Although famine is everywhere now, there is no pole that dares to attack the officials in this world. Moreover, they have such elite cavalry, followed by strong soldiers carrying long spears and holding round shields. Three lines of troops , has been stretching hundreds of meters away.Although it is not a complete regular army, it is still full of momentum.

At this time, the pony pawn was riding a big brown horse. He was said to be a pony pony, but in fact, he was almost 40 years old in comparison.In Yan'an Mansion, which is close to the border, especially a native like him, who has a little bit of money in his family, was a man who could shoot a strong bow and ride a strong horse since he was a child!
The horse coder rode leisurely towards this side, holding a 2-meter-long line gun that can be used both on and off the horse in his hand, and a waist knife hanging on his body. There are not a hundred or fifty heroes who can be folded on them. Pawns have liked this kind of knives and guns since they were young, otherwise they wouldn't have gone out of their way to get the job of Chengcheng Bingfang pawn.

For him, this time, with a dozen of his subordinates who can ride horses and shoot arrows, followed by more than [-] armed men, cleaning the nearby poles that don't even have many weapons at hand is really easy!After all, we have dealt with each other before, and the so-called large and small poles nearby look at the crowd, but in fact, each force is only the core of dozens of people, and the rest are basically farmers who are farming. number.

When it comes time to do it with real knives and real guns, they are all vulnerable to a single blow!

Hearing the constant sound of flattery around him, our pleader Ma became more and more complacent, his face was full of smiles, and he was also thinking in his heart to wait for a few poles to be suppressed, and then give those he likes to The part-time job in the village was given to Tutu. At that time, a lot of money was entered into the account. After distributing the profits to colleagues and the county magistrate, he could also lose a lot. After all, he spent a lot of money to get this position before. Fish it!
"Go ahead! Speed ​​up, the Majia River is just out of the mountain pass ahead, it's hot weather, get a drink and rest there, line up before entering my Majiazhai, don't lose my face! My father has already arranged meals Let’s have fun at night! Tomorrow, we will start to suppress Wang Er’s fellows first, they are very fat! Haha!” said Ma Dianji, waving his horsewhip to the orderly next to him.

"Your order!" Upon hearing the order, the cavalry immediately turned their horses and ran towards the team behind.

Soon, the team behind began to trot. After all, seeing the sky getting late, they will reach the destination immediately after passing the mountain pass. The villagers who have been walking for a day are tired and thirsty, and they are sweating, but seeing They were almost at their destination, and they cheered up and ran another section of the mountain road in one breath.

As soon as the folks arrived at the Majia River, they had a good time, and they didn't care about the formation. They left their weapons and carts on the road and went down the river to enjoy the coolness and sweetness.

The leading dozen or so cavalry also unsaddled their saddles, allowing the horses to drink and rest freely.

Just when these citizens relaxed their vigilance.

Suddenly there was a shout around: "Kill! Only kill Ma Debao! Only kill Ma pawns! Only revenge, don't care about idlers! Surrender to avoid death!"

It was too late to say, and then soon, I saw a few sharp arrows shooting at the crowd drinking water by the river at the same time. This was shot by the archer who had been with the second brother all the time. People are extremely lethal.

The sound of killing was mixed with wailing, and before they could react, a large number of young men with blackened faces holding farm tools, spears and other weapons poured out from both sides of the mountain pass, and rushed towards the government soldiers who had already exploded. .

Liu Ze did not rush down the mountain directly, because the main job of these logistics personnel who are not strong in combat power is not to rush down: one is because the distance is a bit far, and they have no strength to run down; Beating gongs and waving flags widely spread suspicious soldiers.

Liu Ze was very surprised by this arrangement. This second brother is really not an ordinary person, he is very familiar with the art of war!

It can be clearly seen from the top of the mountain that although the river is not wide, a group of people are crowded together without a formation. It is still a bit difficult to cross the river together.

Besides, he didn't have a weapon in his hand, and not far away was the second brother's ambush, running fast.

More than 400 ambush soldiers were divided into three groups. The front line was the widest and the number was the largest. There were nearly 300 people. The second brother led the core of four archers and a dozen people to follow behind the front line, ready to support at any time.

There are fifty people on each side, outflanking from the left and right river banks.There was a sound of the bowstring, and four long arrows could be seen piercing the air from a distance. Because the crowd was extremely dense, all the arrows were shot, and the screams and wailing continued, which aggravated the chaos of the crowd.

It is impossible to resist. After all, there are very few people who carry a waist knife with them.

The peasants without weapons were like ants on a hot pot in a hurry, jumping into the river and fleeing if they were good at water, the others knelt down and surrendered, and none of them resisted.

The minzhuang were like frightened sheep, and the chaos soon spread to the cavalry in the middle.

The situation of the dozen or so cavalrymen in official uniforms was a little bit better. They all clustered around the horse stewards. Judging from the situation, they should still want to rush to fight against a wave.

From a distance, the dozen or so people looked like a pile of sand castles on the beach, facing the ambushes without any shelter.

When they were about to confront each other, the cavalry suddenly divided into two teams. One team hurriedly put saddles on the horses, and the other team formed a formation and rushed directly towards the place where the ambushes were most dense.

The two horseless cavalry who charged fell to the ground one after another and struggled in pain. The rest of them did not hesitate, rushed up the river bank like lightning, and shouted to kill. Although there were only five people, they also killed them. momentum.

They formed a triangular formation, and the leader, Ma Dianli, held a line gun. When he saw the pole approaching, he grabbed the center line and stabbed him down directly. One shot at a time, he kept moving forward.The cavalry on the side took cover and cooperated with each other with long spears. It looked like an angry porcupine, directly piercing through the wave of ambushes rushing to the front.

"Hold on! Hold on! Gather to me!" the magistrate with a hideous face roared, "No retreat, no retreat! Those who retreat will be cut off!"

At the same time, he inserted the thread gun into the soil, picked up a bow and arrow and shot more than a dozen arrows at the front ambush soldiers, and screams were heard from the crowd.

In the era of cold weapons, such a master's deterrent power is too great, and everyone has no armor to protect them. In the blink of an eye, more than ten people were shot down by arrows. The big guys looked at each other and dared not go forward again.

But Ma Dianji's desperate resistance was of no use, because the number of these officials was too small, and the core subordinates led by the second brother immediately swarmed up, and he was not given time to regroup.

The surrounding civilian soldiers only hesitated for a moment, and saw the ambush surrounded them again, and saw a few sharp arrows shooting towards this side, knocking down two cavalry again, and now they gave up resistance completely, and ran away Yes, Ma Dianli's five-man formation was completely broken.

In fact, when the ambushes appeared, Ma Dianji knew that he was finished, and Majiazhai was also finished, but he still wanted to fight. At this moment, he looked desperately at the ambushes who surrounded him, holding a knife in his left hand and a gun in his right, coldly Looking at the second brother seriously, he said, "You are rebelling!"

"Master Ma, surrender. If you surrender, you will be spared!" Seeing that the officer Ma was so brave, the second brother didn't want to increase the number of casualties.

"It's better to break the jade than to ruin it! I know my father's temper. Up to now, no one in the village has reported it. I'm afraid it's all over..." Ma Dianji glanced in the direction of the village with red eyes, silent.

Seeing this situation, the second brother wanted to continue persuading: "We are for the sake of the folks in Zuojin. The dog official of Chengcheng county magistrate threatens the grain tax. If we don't kill him, we will not survive!"

"Wang Er, it's not the first day we've met. Who here doesn't know your details?" Ma Dianji shook the blood on the tip of the thread gun and continued, "You incited the people to kill officials and rebel! The crime is unforgivable! I can't kill you today, and you will die without a burial in the future!"

Seeing his harsh words, the second elder brother stopped persuading him: "Is there any hero in ancient and modern times who didn't call the wind and rain between good and evil to achieve great things? It's not up to you to judge whether it's right or wrong! Once you jump in, your destiny is already doomed , I kill you, you kill me, there is no difference! The flood of the world, in this year when ambition is hard to achieve! Everything is hard to achieve! It is already extremely difficult to stand firm. If you want to get ahead and do some big things, you have to Pay attention to the rules everywhere, it's probably harder than climbing to the sky! Lord Ma, there will be no future!" After saying that, he waved his hand.

The ambush soldiers surrounded by the side raised their swords and guns at the same time, and they moved forward together. The so-called two fists are hard to beat with four hands. The two cavalry next to them did not resist this time, and were stabbed into a sieve by the surrounding spears without a sound.

Dianji Ma got up and Yu Yong stabbed another one down, but this did not change the situation of the battle. Before his long spear could be withdrawn, the opponent in front of him saw the opportunity and stabbed him, which caused Dianji Ma to rush to defend with a knife.At the same time, a few pikemen directly poked into his back from behind, and blood spattered instantly. Official Ma's eyes widened, staring at his second brother unwillingly.

But what if you are unwilling?It's not that the name has been lost in the long river of history.

The six cavalry who were saddling the horses in the river did not complete the task, and were directly led by a bald man to make dumplings. They were even separated by the horses, so they fought on their own. Although they resisted desperately, they did not cause any harm to the ambush soldiers. Any casualties were stabbed down by spears or stunned by rakes and other agricultural tools and weapons, and fell into the river in different tragedies.

Is this the ancient battlefield?

Liu Ze was very surprised when he saw the battle for the first time, it was completely different from the movie.

Is this the defeat of the army?

Once encountering an ambush without preparation and without the commander's order, even facing a weaker enemy, it will be very easy to collapse.Even these deserters who swam across the river couldn't really escape!Because there are more than a dozen ambush soldiers with weapons on the other side of the river, waiting for a rabbit!No one escaped, it was a proper annihilation battle!
