Chapter 325

That night, Liu Zheng at the dinner table did not give him a correct letter, and Changsun Hong did not urge him. After all, in the minds of the Song people, Dali was still in the position of a small country, and it was not an attractive place for a general with lofty hearts.

There is always a chance, Changsun Hong thought to himself, since people have come to Sichuan, they are just under their noses, and there are many opportunities.

If it really doesn't work, Wang Kui issued a transfer order, can Liu Zheng still rebel? At this moment, Liu Zheng was not rich in strength, and it was not comparable to the command of the three armies decades later. He had no power, no soldiers, and no capital.

So neither side was in a hurry, everyone drank, chatted, and became friends.

The night banquet ended happily, and Wang Kui and everyone were drunk and drowsy. They had a big sleep that night and had nothing to say.

The next day, it was not until the morning when everyone woke up one after another because they were all living in the inn in the government office, and they got up in groups of three or two in the hall. When they remembered the fine wines last night, they all praised them and felt that drinking such beautiful wine would be a blessing for a lifetime.

The rain outside was still falling, a little heavier than last night. It fell into the yard outside the door, splashing countless water splashes in the mud. The sky was gloomy, and the rain seemed to be going all day long.

It was not convenient to go out when it rained, so I chatted for a while. Someone noticed that the officials in the corridor outside ran around, as if they were very busy. I stopped him and asked, and I realized that it was not peaceful outside Gongzhou Prefecture. Some bandits who gathered in the mountains always disturbed and caused trouble in the villages and towns outside the city, robbed and killed. The local officials had a headache. Today, another wave came out of the mountain and went to the vicinity of the city to loot. The prefect and others were discussing with Wang Kui and others in the hall.

Everyone was a warrior. It was a big deal when they heard that it was a big deal. The land of Jinghu Lake was full of heavy troops, which was less than seeing a large bandit who dared to make trouble outside the city. I saw it in Sichuan today. There was nothing to say. I just came here and there was no chance to show my head. I had to rush over and do my best.

So everyone rushed to the lobby of the government office and happened to meet a group of people coming out of it. Wang Kui and Changsun Hong were walking in front, and the Gongzhou prefect and local generals followed behind.

"Sir, I heard that there are thieves outside, but it's true?"

The tough Gundam asked the first question, he was impatient and couldn't stand it.

Wang Kui was stunned and nodded: "There is indeed a matter of this. We are about to order troops out of the city to suppress this group of thieves."

Everyone was excited and shouted: "Since that's the case, I'm just here and I haven't made any achievements. Why not follow me? First, I'll see the majestic troops of the Sichuan Commander Command, and second, I'll loosen my muscles and bones. I haven't had a knife for a long time, and my bones are soft!"

Wang Kui touched his beard and looked back at Changsun Hong.

Just now, the agreed plan was to take Changsun Hong to the Shimenfan barbarian army from Rongzhou to guard the guards of Gongzhou to go out to suppress the bandits. Because the rain was heavy and the number of bandits was not clear, the soldiers and horses of Gongzhou Prefecture could only be kept to guard the city, preventing the thieves from luring the tiger away from the mountain. Moreover, there was a mountain ten miles outside the city of Gongzhou. When fighting in the mountains, the barbarian army had to have a better advantage.

The generals from Jinghu Lake will go to watch the fun, and the person who leads the team will decide.

Changsun Hong narrowed his eyes and looked over one by one, and found that basically all the generals of Jinghu Lake were here. Liu Zheng also stood there, and instead laughed in his heart.

I was sleepy and encountered a pillow. I was thinking about how to convince these people. Today I have an opportunity.

People who lead troops in war have a few tricks. To make others convince you, you have to take out the capital to intimidate others. Spending money and fame and fortune alone is not a long-term solution. You must show the ability to be strong, which is the king of becoming a leader.

Changsun Hong bowed and said loudly: "Since you are willing to contribute to Sichuan, it is of course a good thing. I have no reason to refuse. I would like to ask you to go back and wear it in order, fight in the rain, and have no eyes on the sword and gun. You must make preparations."

Everyone was overjoyed and shouted, "This is what they should."

"I'll go and order the troops first, please ask everyone to meet with me at the north gate later." Changsun Hongdao sent everyone to get the sword and put on armor.

After they left, Wang Kui looked at the rain outside, rubbed his nose, and said, "Second brother, you'd better leave a few people for me, don't poach them all."

Changsun Hong was seen through by him, but his face was not red. He sneered: "No, brother, don't worry, I only have two or three people, and I can't afford to support them if there are too many. Besides, these people are all working for the Song Dynasty in your place or me. Is there any difference?"

Before Wang Kui could blink and brow, he waved his hand and rushed into the rain curtain.

Wang Kui looked at the direction where he disappeared, smiled bitterly, shook his head, and turned to the officials in Gongzhou Prefecture to arrange the matters to respond.

A quarter of an hour later, outside the north gate of Gongzhou Prefecture, raindrops were flying. Five hundred black armored and black helmets of Shimen were already lined up in a square formation and waiting in an open area.

Five hundred people were facing the wind and rain, with a colored armor, a weapon with a round shield with a left hand and a right hand. They remained motionless in the rain. The pair of eyes under the iron helmet stared at Changsun Hong who was riding on the horse in front of him. No one spoke, and was silent as if he could not beat human stones in the rain.

When Liu Zheng and more than ten others rode their horses and ran out of the city gate with swords, Changsun Hong had already begun pre-war mobilization.

He said it very concisely, with only three sentences.

"Twenty miles outside the city, hundreds of thieves are killing people and robbing things. Let me kill them!"

Without the bold words of the mountains and rivers, and without the hot and bloody oath, it was as if a few small stones were lost in the pool, causing an inconspicuous ripples.

The generals of Jinghu Lake who heard these words couldn't help but frown. Each of them was a long-time general. Some older ones even participated in the battle to destroy Jin. It was common for each person to stand alone, kill people in blood and lead troops to fight. They were all familiar with this kind of pre-war mobilization.

When a team of people is taken out to fight, morale is very important. Every soldier must mobilize his emotions and scream before he can win the battle.

How could this mobilize? It is dull and lifeless, should I go out for a walk or fight?

It can be seen from the sight of the leopard. The people in Jinghu didn't agree with Changsun Hong's ability to lead troops at this moment. Liu Zheng even curled his lips, secretly glad that he did not agree hastily last night.

The soldiers in Dali and the generals in Dali seem to be nothing but ears.

"Gundam, it seems that you and I will be more at ease. These soldiers seem to be not very good. We will chase geese all day long, so don't be pecked by geese. The gutter is capsized here!" Liu Zheng leaned close to Gundam's ear and said quietly.

Gundam understood and was about to answer, but was blocked by a loud sound.

"Bang!"

The sound of five hundred long-handled weapons in the ground was overwhelmed by everything outside the north gate.

"Here!" Five hundred people roared out in unison, as neatly as one person opened their mouths, and even more alarmed a group of birds living on the city tower, spreading their wings and flying around.

The loud voice even shocked the mount under the crotch of the generals in Jinghu Lake, and they restlessly tilted their hooves and shook their heads. They comforted them and then calmed down.

In the barbarian army formation, there was a centurion leading the team, who shouted: "Everyone turned left! Step in one step!"

"Wow!"

The iron leaves of the armor made the teeth sore, and the array of five hundred people turned around at the same time. No one turned the wrong direction and no one collided. It seemed like a thick piece of black paper spread on the ground, which was folded by someone, and suddenly changed direction.

"Bangbangbangbang!"

The shoes on the ground were stern and loud. Four people lined up in a row from the square formation in an orderly manner, and those who were walking in front were arranged in rows. The people who were not at the turn were silent, waiting silently for their commands to send out their commands.

Some people wearing black leather armor either rode horses or walked quickly, and set out first, and should be scouts.

The team of five hundred people was so orderly, without any slightest confusion, heading towards the official road.

At this time, Changsun Hong turned around and wiped the rain on his face. His eyes shone with light under the ghost face of the iron helmet.

"Everyone, please follow our army and go and destroy the thieves!"

He was wearing black armor and heavy armor, which was obviously different from the iron armor of the Song Dynasty's official army. A long knife hung beside him, and a long bow was on the side of the round shield and horse behind him. A fierce murderous aura rushed over him, and rain and mist filled him, almost making people feel that all the falling raindrops evaporated on the armor.

"Guru."

Gundam swallowed and opened his mouth with difficulty: "Liu Zheng, what did you just say?"

"...I said, I should take a good look at Dali's playing style later." Liu bloated his eyes and wiped his face. I don't know if it was sweat or rain that was wiped out.
