Water Margin: Lu Bu sits on Mount Liang

Chapter 228
The third year of Zhenghe in the Song Dynasty, the third year in Liao Tianqing, and the end of Meng Chun.

The winter was warm, and the snow covered the soil thawed early, soaking the ground. Hu Yanzhuo put on his armor and picked up his iron helmet. The old wife stood at the door with her children in her arms and couldn't help smiling when she saw her husband in high spirits. She loved Huyan back then. Zhuo had this heroic appearance before he married him. After many years, he finally saw him in armor again, only different from before. Although he still admires the hero now, he is more worried.

The woman stepped forward with light lotus steps, tied the cloak on Hu Yanzhuo, smoothed the wrinkles on the battle robe, and said softly: "Officials, be careful all the way, swords have no eyes on the battlefield, don't get hurt."

"Ma'am, don't worry!" Hu Yanzhuo hugged the iron helmet, and couldn't help stretching out his free hand to touch his wife's face. From the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of his son and daughter looking at her, and then turned to touch the Bu Yao on the woman's head: "It's just a few thieves. Your family officials have the courage to be undeserved, how could they be hurt?"

The woman knocked off Hu Yanzhuo's hand, and said with a displeased expression: "Even if the beggars outside are still hurting people, how can the bandits with knives be helpless? Don't be careless."

"My husband has found out, so he will not be negligent." General Shuangbian saw that his old wife was angry, and he felt a faint headache, so he didn't dare to talk stubbornly, and hurriedly continued.

"It's good to know." The woman glared at him, and said a little angrily, after so many years of husband and wife, how can they not know what kind of temperament the other party has.

Hu Yanzhuo smiled and didn't answer, but walked towards the door.

"Daddy came back earlier after beating the bad guys." "I wish my father the best of luck and success in no time."

A pair of little people said their blessings, Hu Yanzhuo laughed loudly, and said: "When the father comes back, I will take you two to hunt." In the excited children and the worried look of the old wife, the burly double whip will After leaving the house, he took the double whips from the soldiers, turned on his body and kicked Xue Wuzhi, and left the city with a slap of the whip.

In the barracks outside the city, a chilling atmosphere floated in the air. Countless soldiers were running with swords and soldiers. Groups of war horses were being guarded. The generals were making final preparations. The voices were endless, and the entire barracks seemed noisy and chaotic.

Since returning from Bianliang last year, Hu Yanzhuo has started to prepare for the crusade against Liangshan. A group of bandits and grass bandits did not hide on the mountain. I don't think it's because the bandits are too strong, but I look down on Shandong's comrades even more. They are so incompetent that they make the bandits bigger, which is a disgrace to our generation.

Crow's hooves flew and galloped into the barracks. After a while, the horn sounded, and the barracks seemed to come alive. Amid the shouts of the generals, the sergeants began to assemble, and a neat team assembled in the school grounds.

Han Tao and Peng Qi were both dressed in military uniform, wearing iron armor, holding their sword hilts, and under the escort of two teams of personal soldiers, they walked over quickly. .”

"The two generals are invited, are all the affairs ready?"

"The weapons, food and grass have all been loaded into the car, and we are waiting for the commander's order."

The burly double whip general nodded, and the two hurriedly walked behind him and stood still. Hu Yanzhuo just took two steps forward when the cold wind blew, and the surrounding flags spread out, fluttering with the wind, and the sergeant standing below His face is firm and firm, and his figure is upright and powerful while leaning on a sword.

Looking around, the majestic Hu Yanzhuo nodded in satisfaction. What he should say has been said to his sergeant in the past two months, so he didn't want to waste any more words, and waved his right hand: "Let's go—"

"Wan Sheng—"

"Wan Sheng—"

"Wan Sheng—"

During the shouting, the sergeants hit the ground with the end of their guns, and then turned and left amidst the general's shouting. After a short while, troops came out from the gate of the barracks. Looking down from a high altitude, dense crowds of people were waiting in the camp. Behind the gate, waiting for the comrades in front to go out through the gate.

At the beginning of mid-spring, the conquering army entered Chenzhou, passed through Kaifeng Mansion, and then went straight all the way, approaching the Guangji army at the end of mid-spring.

……

The wind blows through the water, and waves of water ripples are pushed forward with the howling airflow, and then hit the tidal flats to form fine waves.

The wind blew past the flag erected on the checkpoint. Lu Bu stood on the crenel and looked at the boats sailing in the water in the distance. Among the few people Niu Wenzhong recruited, Shen An and Shi Jing were disrespectful to Ye Duo, and they were also very dissatisfied with the rules of the cottage, and there were always complaints, how about using this battle to give them to..." He stretched out his right hand and made a gesture The action of cutting.

"It doesn't have to be like this." Lu Bu pointed his finger, his tiger eyes narrowed slightly: "On the battlefield, swords have no eyes. If he can survive, it is his luck. He can wait for a chance to leave."

Turning around, the golden crown on his head shone with the sunlight. This time the imperial court dispatched troops was an opportunity to test the combat power of his subordinates. The fourth battalion that had just left just now was to meet the imperial court vanguard.

If the enemy's attack is fierce and hard to resist, then rely on the natural danger of the water to fight against it. If the vanguard team is vulnerable, the soldiers in the cottage should be pulled out to fight in the field to see blood. No army is as bloody and ferocious. It is achieved by playing defense, and offense is the best way to train soldiers.

As for those two strong men who were full of complaints, he didn't look down on them. If he wanted to kill them because of this, wouldn't it mean that he took them too seriously?
It's just a pair of insects, so you don't need to look directly at them.

"Brother, be merciful." Qiao Lie followed Lu Bu towards the checkpoint, but he somewhat guessed Lu Bu's thoughts in his heart, but as the person in charge of information in the cottage, the Taoist found that he could not tolerate such a duplicitous villain. .

Brother is a person who does big things, so let the poor do the dirty work.

Thinking of this, as if getting rid of some troubles, the Taoist walked two points briskly, and caught up with the figure in front of him in the sight of the guards at the checkpoint.

At the beginning of spring, Hu Yanzhuo's army entered the Guangji army. The forward Han Tao led [-] troops and had passed Dingtao and entered Jeju. The war was approaching, and merchants were the first to respond. They paid tolls almost overnight. They all disappeared, and the people nervously took out sticks to guard the doors and windows.

Since Liangshan established the rules, it has stopped looting the people, but the soldiers of the Xiang Army and the Forbidden Army have no such worries. They are two points more ruthless than the bandits when they rob things.

After a while, Liangshan's vanguard army also entered Jeju along the river, and the officials of Juye County didn't dare to provoke this group of strong men, they just closed the city gates and watched the army passing under the banner of Liangshan.

……

Misty mist filled the waterside, and the sound of armor colliding continued to resound. Liangshanzhai soldiers in leather armor carrying swords, shields and long spears came ashore and lined up amidst the roars of junior officers.

His big feet in combat boots stepped on dry grass, he was wearing black iron armor with chains and a black iron helmet with a tiger's head on his head. He turned over hard and got on the horse's back.

"I don't know how powerful this imperial army is?" Reaching out his hand to take the ax handed by his own soldiers, he looked at Wen Zhongrong who came behind him: "I followed my brother to fight against the imperial army in the west and east of Beijing, and I feel that they are all the same. Sample."

"Should have some strength, otherwise how can we let him come here?" The strong man with Zhangba Snake Spear was wearing a decent armor and looked forward with serious eyes.

"Brother underestimates our own people." Mie Gong came over with a pair of thick eyebrows, and the bright silver chain mail on his body reflected a cold light: "Brother has fought all over the east and west of Beijing, but he has not seen any officers and soldiers who can fight. "

"It's better to be careful." Wen Zhongrong frowned, glanced at Dong Xian who was riding a horse, and said respectfully to Mie: "The imperial court can let this army and horses come to conquer, it should be different from the soldiers and horses here. Otherwise, wouldn’t it be superfluous?”

As he was speaking, Dong Xian came riding a horse with a green mane. The young man was full of vigor. He was wearing a flamboyant purple and gold chain armor, a beast head swallowing shoulder pads, a purple gold helmet with eight prongs on his head, and wearing Lion head combat boots, a purple and gold tiger head gun in his hand, with a majestic appearance and an extraordinary appearance.

This is because Yang Lin felt sorry for the old man's nephew, so he specially asked Wuhu to build the armor, and he was afraid that the horse he rode for the first time was not good, so he asked his friends in the rivers and lakes to buy him a good horse. Appearance.

"Commander, the scouts have been dispatched and the army has assembled, please give me your order."

Xuan Jiao nodded, as the commander of the army who is testing the army this time, even if he wants to go to the front to fight, he must be patient and command from behind, and immediately said: "Order Cui Yebu to be on the left and Wen Zhongrong to be on the right. Gong is in the middle, the army goes down the main road, and when there is news of the scouts, it will go straight to the headquarters of the officers and soldiers."

"Yes!"

A group of men clasped their fists to accept the order, and then went back to their respective troops. Not long after, 2000 people from the Fourth Battalion moved forward and moved forward along the main road.

In the distance, Tang Erhu and Du Lisan looked at each other, and after waving their hands, the scouts spread out and walked in groups of four or five cavalry towards the possible location of the enemy army.

……

Han Tao's headquarters was resting. Since he passed Dingtao, he always felt that someone was watching him along the way. However, he could see the wilderness in all directions, and no one was following him. However, he was still a little worried. Isaac Many scouts went out to investigate.

Maybe I've been too nervous recently.

Han Tao grinned and looked aside. Groups of sergeants in armor and armed with swords were walking with their heads held high. This time, the court allocated enough weapons and armor, and the money and food were also distributed in full. Not only the generals above The officer was very happy about this, and the morale of the sergeants below was also high, and the voices for war continued for a while.

"Regimental envoy, there is no one following behind, nor on the left and right sides." A trusted officer beside him caught up from behind, approached Han Tao and said in a low voice, "Maybe you are watching from a further distance?"

General Yu Sheng glanced at him, heaving his body up and down with his mount, then glanced at the soldiers who occasionally approached around him, and then at the two thousand soldiers behind him, he could occasionally hear the buzzing whispers, turned his head Click: "Let the scouts look into the distance, I hope it's just me who is suspicious and too worried."

"The regiment trainer is also thinking about the safety of the army." The confidant smiled: "If someone really comes to pluck the tiger's beard, then they are courting death."

"Don't underestimate the gangsters." Han Tao looked at him with a serious expression: "It's a real record for him to beat his comrades on Jingdong Road in a row."

The confidant nodded: "Tuanlian taught me a lesson, but we are not comparable to Jingdong."

"What nonsense." Han Tao glared at him, "Hurry up and deliver the order."

"Yes!"

The man smiled, and hurriedly rode out, and then more scouts ran towards the front of the army, gradually drifting away.

……

The sharp cold wind blows through the woods, and the ungerminated branches look a little bleak in the sun from a distance. The horseshoes step on the withered yellow grass, swirl the black soil and withered grass leaves, and come towards the opposite side with a rumbling sound. The cavalry killed.

On the galloping horse, Tang Erhu's face was full of fierceness, and the comrades behind him took out flying axes and bows and arrows. The moment the two sides approached, the bowstrings rang, the short spears and flying axes whizzed, and with several screams, both sides were shocked. Someone was shot and fell.

Tang Erhu was agile, he hid in a stirrup and dodged the incoming arrows, when he turned over, he was holding the short spear behind his back, when the two horses staggered, he knocked out the sword he had chopped off, and pierced the spear into his chest Between the ribs, the knight on the opposite side glared angrily, grabbed the spear shaft with all his strength, and wanted to take Tang Erhu off the horse when he turned over and fell off the horse.

"roll--"

Tang Erhu let go abruptly, allowing the opponent to fall with the short spear, and quickly drew out the other short spear with one hand to kill him. When he stabbed the man to death, he looked back, and saw two horsemen fleeing quickly.

"Chase--"

As soon as someone reined in his horse, he was about to chase him, but Tang Erhu stretched out his hand to stop him: "No need, the opponent's army is too close, this distance is not enough to chase and kill."

Dismounting and retracting the short spear, retracting the opponent's weapon and bow, he jumped on the horse with a run-up: "Send a signal, go back! It will be up to the commanding officer next."

The remaining few people looked at each other, dismounted and took the dead comrade with him, grabbed the empty horse, and hurriedly swung his whip back. On the other side, Du Lisan, who had also been caught, also made the same decision. It blew in the woods and in the wilderness, and then more or less scouts flew back on horseback.

……

"The regiment training envoys have orders, defend on the spot, and beware of enemy attacks!"

"Array—"

woohoo-

The sound of the horn sounded in the wilderness, and the messengers were running around in the army. While the words they shouted surprised all the soldiers, they were also extremely excited. When you are a fighter, you don’t want to think about your future on the battlefield. Judging from Shangguan's meaning this time, as long as he can make meritorious service, rewards are indispensable.

The general shouted and reprimanded, and a group of sergeants with swords and shields stepped forward to set up their positions. The spearmen behind stepped forward and stood still.

In the sight, black shadows appeared in the distance, densely packed figures stepped on the ground, making loud footsteps, the long wind blew the flags, and the big banner with the word Liangshan came into view, and the figures came in formation Strong and burly, full of spirit.

"How capable are these thieves..." Han Tao narrowed his eyes and held the jujube stick tightly.

　PS:

　　Dong Xian made a second design, combining history with "Shuo Yue", so there is no need for a crescent shovel. In other words, Xiao Ke has never understood why Dong Xian used a crescent shovel without becoming a monk... for personal gain~
