Aspiration

Chapter 68

There are really quite a few poles in the Central Plains, with dozens of small ones and tens of thousands of large ones.No wonder the Henan government concealed Hao Yaoqi's rebel army and did not report it. Governor Li Fengxian felt at ease where he was an official, because there were so many thieves, it was impossible to distinguish who was the pole and who was the rebel army.There is a difference between the pole and the rebel army. The pole is full of food, without great ambitions, without a lofty goal.The rebel army has political goals. They aim to change the dynasty and truly rebel.For the imperial court, there is an essential difference between the two.

Chongzhen didn't care much about the poles. Compared with the Manchus and Li Zicheng, Zhang Xianzhong, etc., the poles were nothing more than poor people, just for one bite. When there was a good harvest, they would be wiped out as soon as the officers and soldiers suppressed them. .

For this reason, a group of officials in Henan did not report to the imperial court about the activities of Hao Yaoqi's rebel army in Henan.

Li Laiheng carefully selected two people and prepared to pull them over.

One group is the hairy gourd soldiers from Song County, they are very famous.The so-called hair gourd soldiers are pole soldiers who are good at climbing mountains. They wear gourds on their bodies, straw sandals on their feet, no rattan armor and no helmets.It is said that the hair gourd soldiers have a very long history. In the Southern Song Dynasty, their ancestors once followed the Yue family army to fight the Jin soldiers, and they were the trump card of the Yue family army in mountain warfare.Li Laiheng has always wanted to build an elite division for mountain warfare, and now there is a formed troop here, which can be used for battle as long as it is slightly improved.Therefore, Li Laiheng is very interested in this unit.

The other group is miners from Henan. You can tell by their names that they come from miners.Digging mountains and holes is their specialty.In the future, engineers and soldiers will definitely be needed. Siege of cities and digging tunnels are their strengths. Maybe, digging out their strengths will become a very strong army for attacking tough battles.

The leader of Mao Hulu Bing was a lean old man in his fifties, surnamed Hou and surnamed Jianbao.Although he is fifty years old, he can climb mountains and climb rocks, walking like flying.Regarding Li Laiheng's arrival, he asked disdainfully: "Little friend, you know how to climb mountains, do you think it's a monkey trick?"

"No, I went to Beijing Tianqiao to see the monkey show. Why go to this remote mountain to see it? There are only wild monkeys to watch here." Li Laiheng took five soldiers with him today, and planned to mobilize them to join the rebel army.

How could Hou Jianbao, the leader of the hair gourd soldiers, not know Li Laiheng's intention?He doesn't want to join any organization, what he wants is to occupy the mountain as the king and be a carefree king of the mountain.

However, if he knew Li Laiheng's will, he would not think so.Since Li Laiheng is here, it's not a matter of discussing with anyone, you have to join.

For the old man after joining, he is still the head of Mao Gourd Bing, but there is still a head above him, and Li Laiheng is his head.If he doesn't join, he has only one way to go, death.

He didn't want to die, and Li Laiheng didn't want him to die either, so Li Laiheng said: "Old man Hou, let me tell you, I've taken a fancy to you gourd soldier, you won't suffer if you give it to me, and don't talk about Feng Houfeng from now on." Wang, what kind of son is you? Man, I guess there is no problem. Of course, the problem is that your old man is not dead."

"Are you scaring me?" the old man said angrily.

Li Laiheng smiled, "Scaring is also a skill? Waiting old man, your military adviser is not a man of life, do you believe it or not?"

What he was talking about was the short, thin man with a goatee sitting behind the old man, who was immediately known to be the dog-headed military division of the fur gourd soldiers.Such people are generally prone to capriciousness after recovery, because their ambition is to be the master, and it is their philosophy to be a chicken head rather than an ox tail.

When the old man was angry, the young man didn't say anything nice, and now he scolded his military adviser again, so he was naturally angry.He was about to scold him, but he didn't expect that Li Laiheng was so overbearing that he was unreasonable at all, and he didn't see how he moved. With a wave of his hand, the military officer who hadn't said a word until now became a headless ghost.

"Yes, I'm right."

Everyone was horrified, there are brutal people in the world, they never expected that there would be such brutal people who would kill someone with a knife in other people's lair before finishing three sentences.

When the old man let out a whistle, dozens of people shouted in unison, "Wow", the steel knife was unsheathed, and surrounded Li Laiheng and the other six people tightly.

Surrounding Li Laiheng, there were all capable soldiers. With a move, the Mao Gourd soldiers were confident that they could tear their corpses to pieces immediately.They didn't rush to fight, they just stared at the six enemies.

"Say! Who sent you? What exactly are you going to do?" The old man Hou lived to be 50 years old, so he naturally knew that the result of recklessness is often a bitter fruit. Be careful, and you will never go wrong.Therefore, he still endured it, and it was necessary to ask them where they came from.

"I am a subordinate of King Chuang, Li Laiheng, and I am going to recruit you."

Li Zicheng, they knew it, they had heard too much, but to them Mao Gourd Bing, they just admired them, they didn't think about seeking refuge or forming a gang, and the wandering pole didn't create a tall image in Mao Gourd Bing's heart.

Li Laiheng also knew that this group of poles in the Funiu Mountains were ignorant and did not have much admiration and awe for Li Zicheng's reputation. When he came today, literary attacks were worthless, so he came up with martial arts.

"Li Zicheng? Li Zicheng is considered a ball. You are so bloodthirsty that we have greatly reduced our admiration for him. You young man killed our second master, what do you think?"

"Isn't it just a second in charge? No, this person can be your second in charge. If you still want a first in charge, then I can send you a first in charge."

Li Laiheng's unreasonable words angered everyone.

"kill him!"

Dozens of voices shouted together.

The people Li Laiheng brought today were all his essence. Hearing the shouting, before the shouting people woke up, they had already left the hall.

"Chasing!" shouted from behind.

Li Laiheng led five people towards the cliff on the opposite mountain.

You are looking for death, you are playing tricks in front of your mountain-climbing ancestors?The old man was happy. The cliff in front of them was used for military training, and it was extremely difficult. Up to now, less than one out of ten of his gourd soldiers can climb up quickly.The scene is full of the elite of the old man waiting, and most of them can climb up.

But they didn't climb, they were going to watch six people fall one by one, at least, they would be able to retreat and surrender with their hands up.

However, a horrifying scene appeared, and the six people climbed up in an instant.

Faster than the old man!
How did they know that rock climbing is one of the basic skills of the special forces in the 21st century, one of the elites chosen from one in a hundred thousand?

The stunned Mao Gourd Bing watched them go up, and quickly came down again.Self-confidence is hurt.The result of injury is discouragement, and the result of discouragement is decadence.

Li Laiheng came over again, and he said to the old man, "I have heard about the great names for a long time and specially invited you to join the gang. King Chuang will soon enter Henan, attack Luoyang, and attack Kaifeng. In the future, he will also defeat Beijing and establish a new dynasty." , you join now, and you will be the founding soldiers of the country in the future. Isn’t it good?”

A moment of silence.

After a while, the old man Hou asked, "Why did you kill my second head?"

"This man has a cunning face. Sooner or later, he will die badly. It is better to die early, so as not to harm others in the future."

Incomprehensible logic.

There is no reason to talk about such a monster.However, the hairy gourd soldiers have already been tempted, and the days when they can only have enough food and clothing are already very boring, why not come out and do something vigorous?Now it is someone who invites you, but in the future if you come to the door yourself, the price will drop.

Li Laiheng observed the words and expressions, and knew that there was still a fire to be made.

"Old man Hou, I will make you a side general. From now on, your hairy gourd soldiers will be one of the three main forces of my Li Laiheng army. You won't treat fame like dirt, will you?"

"You seal me? Who are you under Li Zicheng?" The old man Hou saw that Li Laiheng was only about 20 years old, and he was still a child. What qualifications does he have to be an official?
Li Laiheng smiled, "I heard that there was an army that swept through Henan like no one else, do you know who led it?"

"You are General Li Laiheng who is known as the God of War and is as famous as Zhang Kewang under Zhang Xianzhong?"

"Didn't I declare myself a long time ago?"

When the old man heard it, he immediately became excited as if he had been beaten with chicken blood.He pondered for a while, and said: "General Li, it is my wish to serve King Chuang. There is no gift of audience. I will mobilize the mine soldiers from Funiu Mountain to join King Chuang. I don't know what the general wants? I don't admire the gourd soldiers." Others, only admire the mine soldiers, they are brave and good at fighting, and they are indomitable. Their leaders are my friends, and I will persuade them to come and join them."

Not long after, the mine soldiers came to join them. More than 1000 people grew up in small mines. They were born with good muscles and were the embryos of good soldiers. They only needed a little more formal training to make them keep attacking the city. The elite troops of the village.

Li Laiheng has received two unique elite soldiers, and his mountain warfare and attack troops can be gradually formed.

The prototype of Li Laiheng's army began to take shape.
