Chapter 3 Short-haired thief ()

Li Sheer looked around and looked for a way to escape later. He turned around and whispered to the second leader Wang An: "Let the brothers behind retreat first. If the situation is not good, we cannot be pulled back as a back." At this time, he suddenly heard a cheer in his formation. Li Sheer looked back and saw that the group of infantrymen who were pressing from the side were a little confused. More than ten people fell down. On the half slope behind them, a group of archers were shooting arrows at them. The bow in their hands was quite large, and one person was more than high. A big turret rose from the top of the slope. The sunset reflected from behind, illuminating the flying phoenix on the flag as if it was painted in blood. The chicken claws were holding seven feather arrows, which were the big flag of Qijiazhuang.

"The best thing about these Qijiazhuang killers is to beat sticks and pick up cheap things. They do meat-eating things every time, and others are gnawing bones. This time, it must be Lu Fang's short-haired thief. This guy is even more cunning. Let's make us mess with him. I only pity those hundreds of brothers." Li Sheer was cursing happily, but Wang An, the second-leader next to him, complained: "The first wave just now was the other two groups of refugees. None of our brothers died. You even planned to take advantage of the two groups of strength to get rid of them. If Lu Fang hadn't come, he might have to leave behind a hundred people when he retreated later. I wonder which one of you or him was even more cunning." Seeing that the leader kept cursing, there was no intention of stopping. Wang An tentatively said: "Then are we still withdrawing? Leave the Qijiazhuang people here and let them kill themselves."

"Retreat? If Lu Fang wins, we won't even get the hair. Where can hundreds of people get food and clothing in winter?"

"We can annex the things of those two gangs, and it is probably enough to spend a winter together. It's better to stay here than to stay here - if Qijiazhuang collapses, I'm afraid even these two and a half pounds will be left here."

Wang An pointed to his head timidly and replied that he was really scared by those people. Wang Zhuer's martial arts skills are so good that he is a famous hero in a radius of hundreds of miles. He raised a hundred pounds and rushed up with hundreds of brothers. He was pierced with more than ten holes on his body like a blood gourd. In half a cup of tea, he collapsed, and the other party even had a hair. The farther he hid, the better. Go back and poured down the pot of wine hidden in the shack, and found a woman to have a good sleep and forget all of this.

"Did you, the second!" Lisher looked at Wang An with a look of regret, and pointed at Wang Er's head and said, "Think about the thing on your shoulders. If the short-haired thief wins, we will certainly not be able to divide anything. The leaders of the two groups of people don't know if they are still alive. Do you think that Lu Fang will leave it for us to annex, and he will definitely not even leave it for us. Maybe he will use the excuse that we will escape in the face and will not stop until we bite a piece of meat." Lisher's voice became heavier and louder, and his saliva splashed Wang An's face, and a black face full of flesh was about to be pressed to his subordinates' face, forcing Wang An to retreat step by step.

Lisher continued: "Even if Qijiazhuang loses, the short-haired thief's men are all local snakes, and the sky is almost dark, so many people will definitely not die. Those evil stars are just guards of business travelers and will not chase them far away. If we leave the Qijiazhuang people and those who leave alone and wait until these evil stars leave, do you think the short-haired thief will use this as an excuse to cause trouble for us? At that time, the groups of people here will definitely hate us for escaping first. Then you will come to resist the short-haired thief alone?"

Wang An was sweating profusely when he heard this and said, "Then call my brothers now?"

"What are you going to go? Just watch the fun here. If the short-haired thief wins, he will go up and take a bite and give us some points. If he loses, he will have time to withdraw. After all, we did not leave them and escape alone. We left in the end. It is considered that the righteousness and righteousness are over. They can't blame us. It's almost dark, and those evil stars will not take the risk to chase us. After all, they are caravan guards, not catching envoys."

Wang An was right and was about to flatter him a few times when he suddenly said, "The scenery here in Xiaoshe is good, I wonder what kind of fun to watch?"

Wang An was about to turn around and curse who was so bold and dared to be arrogant in front of the big leader. But he found that the big leader who was spitting like he was just now was quite strange, the fat on his cheeks was twitching, and the corners of his mouth were trying to rise up, as if he wanted to laugh, but the smile was even worse than crying. But he heard the voice just now saying: "I wonder where is the wife and brother who followed Wang in the morning, why isn't they by Wang?"

"Come with Leader Wang? The sister of Lu Zhixing, who came with Leader Wang in the morning, is the legitimate daughter of the Lu family in Qijiazhuang. She is a famous beauty. She married the cartilage short-haired thief who married Lu Fang. Could it be that the short-haired thief behind Lu Fang?" Wang An only came to his mind when he thought of this. Seeing the black face of the leader in front of him, he suddenly turned white, and the sweat on his forehead fell like raindrops, and he banged out one word from his mouth: "Brother Lu volunteered to come forward to persuade him to surrender, but was taken advantage of by someone and was captured."

"Voice?" Wang An felt a big step forward by himself, standing in front of the leader, and standing on both sides of him, clamping himself in the middle. The man was quite old, wearing a gray robe, with a weird style, and a hood attached to the robe. At this time, the hat was on his back, and there was no bun on his head, only short hair about an inch long.

"That's right." Li Sheer smiled dryly and retreated, but was blocked by the guards behind him. "Brother Lu asked to go and persuade him to surrender. You know, all of them are big words that are not a basket of words, and they are not as good as Brother Lu's literacy, so..."

"Okay, let's not mention this for now. You prepare your people, especially those scoops. If you can't get rid of the guys below and save the trip back this time, you can let you go. The elders of the Lu family and the Wang family can't spare you in the meeting hall." Lu Fang pointed to the elite soldiers of the Black Clouds below and said.

The situation on the battlefield has changed. Heiyun is worthy of being one of the elites in the world. Although he was attacked by a side and back and was shot by more than ten people, his formation is not chaotic. First, a sharp whistle sounded and clicked the flag in the center to the right, and then he drew an arc to the enemy side and back. Then, the row of stairs moving slowly forward stopped. Then, the right wing turned around with the chess as the center, facing the direction of the original side and back enemy. All the wounded soldiers who were injured and fell to the ground were moved to the back of the ranks. Then the soldiers on both wings contracted to the center, turning the enemy from both sides into a circular formation. Hundreds of long spears were pointed out densely, like a huge angered porcupine.

Wang Qinian breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that the soldiers under his command had turned into a round formation. Unexpectedly, these bandits still had so many tricks. Fortunately, the opponent had no cavalry and the soldiers were not elite enough. Otherwise, if they rushed over from behind and were attacked from both sides, they would have to lie here even if they had high martial arts skills. However, the archers just now were 70-80 steps away, and they could actually shoot through the armor of the soldiers under his command. One of them even had his thighs and his tendons were broken. They were also a useless person when they saw it. Could it be that they had crossbow machines? But there were no such thing as crossbow machines that had launched as fast as the arrows. It was like raindrops. Fortunately, the rows of veterans behind them all carried leather shields. Unfortunately, if they had arrived half a cup of tea later, all the refugees in front would have been driven away. Now they had to start over again, and the result would be difficult to determine.

"It's true that it's a hundred battles. It's as fast as the wind, its rush, its rush like forest, its rush like fire, and its movement as mountains. Finally, I saw with my own eyes what the four elite soldiers mentioned in Sun Tzu's Art of War looked like." Lu Fang held the hilt of the knife at his waist with one hand and touched the short beard on his chin with the other hand. He looked back at the two leaders behind him. Wang An was fine, but he didn't see the beauty of it. Li Sheer, who had been in Huang Chao's army for several years, had his eyes protruded. Seeing Lu Fang turn his head, his eyes full of begging eyes, he just said something and asked to withdraw. Lu Fang smiled and turned around, patted Li Sheer's shoulder and said, "Now you can send the zippers down."

Chen Wu is a team leader in Heiyundu. He stood in the second row outside the round formation and was thinking: "I have been in the army for 15 years, including the beginning of the uprising with Qin Zongquan. I have been in the army for 15 years. First, I fought Huang Chao, then Zhu Wen, and then followed Sun Ru to Huainan to fight Yang Xingmi. Finally, Sun Ru was cut off his head, and Caizhou soldiers surrendered Yang Xingmi. He has good martial arts skills and was incorporated into Heiyundu. He is already 30 years old this year. He spends half of his time fighting, killing or being killed, and he doesn't even have a wife. When can he have his own piece of land, two cows and a wife, and have a stable meal when he goes home at night, which is not like now."

Suddenly something flew past his ear, and it was very fast. "Arrow?" There were dozens of refugees moving in front of him, and there was no crossbow in his hands. "You've made a mistake, those people may be here to collect the corpse."

With a dull "bang", the person in front of him came down softly. Chen Wu felt a heat on his face, and the hot liquid splashed on his face. He wiped it and opened his eyes. The man's head was like the melon he had accidentally dropped on the ground, rotting, red and white flowing all over the ground. Next to it was a pebbles covered with blood, brain matter, which could not be seen in the original color.

"Stone-tag, when did the Khitans run so far?" Chen Wu's first reaction was to squat down, hold his head in his hand, and the soldiers with the leather shield went to the enemy with archers. Looking out from the crack of the human being, the dozens of bandits who thought they were collecting the corpse were all shining a belt. Suddenly, when they released it, a stone flew over with a whoosh. It was the stone-tag rope used by the Khitan cavalry in Zhu Wen's army. People were hit from time to time in the formation, moaning and cursing. Suddenly, there was a cracking sound behind the back, and the military formation was in chaos. It turned out that a stone happened to break the flagpole of the central army's general flag pole.

Li Guang felt that the left arm was a little thrusting. He was stabbed by the bamboo gun of the bandit who had turned around and desperately. Although he gave it a little and put on armor, he was still slightly injured. The thieves who were running ahead were very familiar with each other and all ran to the steep and uneven hillside. The brothers stopped because they were afraid of hurting the horse's hooves. There were no one in front of him who were still resisting. There were corpses and discarded weapons everywhere on the ground.

"Why did the Heiyun retreat? There was no more general flags. The team is waiting, let's go back to the camp." Li Guang looked back and was surprised to find that the Heiyun, who had just moved steadily behind them, had turned into a circular formation and was retreating to the highland car camp. A group of people appeared behind him, as if he was about to cut off his retreat.
