Chapter 417: Mengzhou City, a Bird of Fright
The people were shocked to see Qin Ming's fierce appearance and the large group of fierce cavalrymen, and the scene when they were broken into the city more than a year ago was not forgotten. When they heard this, they immediately fled to the city regardless of everything, and they scattered all over the place in various ways.
There was a commander in Mengzhou City patrolling nearby. This guy was also unlucky. He was transferred from other places just because he was newly promoted. He didn't know how powerful Liangshan was. He thought that like the strong men in other places, he didn't dare to offend the court at all. He just came to seek death because he was crazy and rushed out with more than a hundred people.
He pointed a spear in his hand and sneered: "Where did the thief come from? How dare you invade the city of our court? Are you impatient? You are tactful and quickly dismounted and tied up, otherwise you will be a ghost under the knife."
Qin Ming was furious. He was a fourth-rank general in Qingzhou's military commander. How could this little sixth-rank commander take this kid seriously, in terms of status and force. He didn't even take this kid seriously when he heard this. He didn't answer and waved his mace and rushed forward.
The commander was also furious when he saw this. In his opinion, the other party was just a first-class thief. He was completely in the sky and the other party was in the middle of the sky and the earth. He was condescending and took the initiative to talk to him. The other party dared not to answer, which was extremely rude, so he also brought a horse and a knife to greet him.
This sixth-rank commander will have different results from the two different perspectives of Qingzhou military commander and bandits. Unfortunately, the always dark court did not make any mistakes in this matter. The gap in strength between Qin Ming, the ambitious but extremely unlucky commander, was far greater than that between their original positions.
Therefore, the two of them had only three rounds of interaction. The commander's sword was smashed to the ground by an angry thunder fire, and then it was smashed over with people and horses. The poor commander could not understand why even a thief was so powerful these days. I am a decent commander who was a martial artist. If I were lucky enough in the future, I might be able to become the general manager of the military and horse in Qingzhou.
Unfortunately, he didn't know that the fierce general on the other side was the former general manager of Qingzhou, so he could only die with peace of mind.
The other patrolmen immediately dispersed when they saw the generals die. The guards on the city hurriedly shot arrows down, fearing that Qin Ming and the others would take the opportunity to enter the city.
At this time, Hua Rong, a white-robed, white armored, white horse and silver spear, flew out with one horse, and shot an arrow from afar, nailing a letter firmly on the city wall. The garrison general at the city was sweating like rain, because the arrow happened to fly over his neck, but did not hurt him at all. This was probably ten times more difficult than shooting him directly. He was completely equivalent to running around the gate of hell.
At this time, Hua Rong was five hundred steps away from the city gate, and they could not even shoot from top to bottom, but they shot from bottom to top, and it was so accurate. What kind of shooting technique is this?!
The entire city was silent, and everyone couldn't help but shrink their necks. Hua Rong sneered: "Don't panic. I will not kill the nameless person under the arrow. Hurry up and send this letter to your prefect Yao, so that he can offer this city early, otherwise we won't be so polite next time we come."
After saying that, Hua Rongchang laughed and drove away with Qin Ming and his group, but it shocked all the soldiers on the top of Mengzhou City, and no one dared to chase after him. Although there were only 300 people on the other side, Qin Ming's stick and Hua Rong's arrow undoubtedly deeply shocked them.
Moreover, when they sent the letter to Yao Shu, they also passed on this fear very well. When Yao Shu saw the content of the letter and the description of the garrison general adding fuel to the fire, they almost fainted on the spot. He couldn't even say a word, and his teeth kept trembling.
In the end, several regiment training envoys and staff came up to offer advice, saying that they should send people to inform Ping An, Dezhou and Qingzhou, and that the king would be the best way to let them come to rescue. At the same time, the whole city was also ready to be prepared. The bandits in Liangshan could not stop the reinforcements of the three groups, and the heavenly soldiers would inevitably be wiped out everywhere.
Yao Shu agreed immediately without thinking, and then he chatted there with a pale face, only to blame his own hardship. No one in the management of Mengzhou City proposed to send troops to fight, and there was even no suggestion to send some wardens to inquire about the enemy. They were all afraid of being beaten.
These situations were even better than the best people expected by Liangshan. They even saved the men who were feinting attacks. The messengers who were asking for help were naturally intercepted by Liangshan's men who had already been prepared for it, and then sent them to the central army tent where Du Jia was.
After discussing for a while, everyone unanimously decided to deal with Ping'an's men first. There are three reasons. First, Ping'an Mansion is farther away from Mengzhou, and the probability of the wars being discovered there is lower; second, Ping'an Mansion's character is said to be quite impatient, and he is very proud of his strength. The chance of leading troops is higher, so it is naturally easier to take the opportunity to seize the city; third, Du Jia thinks the name "Ping' is auspicious...
Then, except for two companies of the ambush sentry left behind, they divided into small groups to patrol here, all the rest of the people came out and headed straight for Ping'an Mansion, and then lie down in two ways not far outside the city. Sure enough, after receiving the letter of help from the messenger sent by Liangshan, ** was not shocked but overjoyed. He felt that the opportunity for promotion and wealth had finally come.
It turned out that his commander, his younger brother Zhao Jiang, had the courage to be inappropriate. He had worked under Xiaozhong Gongliu Gong and made contributions to the border battlefield. It was not until his brother ** became the prefect of Ping'an to help his brother. However, since he came here, he felt that he had nothing to do except dealing with refugees or thieves occasionally. He made his hero completely useless. He was naturally overjoyed to see that he could finally use his strength.
Then ** encouraged his brothers and arranged for them to let each soldier two steamed buns, one pound of beef and half a bottle of wine to reward the army. After the army was rewarded, Zhao Jiang brought five hundred cavalry, one thousand infantry, and more than ten commanders, and the commander rushed out of Ping'an City like a gust of wind. He wanted to capture all the Liangshan bandits in one go. In Zhao Jiang's opinion, the other party was just a group of bandits. It was not a problem to repel them. He could only kill most of them, and then capture those thieves alive to show his ability.
