Wulin martial arts hegemony record

Chapter 126 Goddess Palace Owner Gu Shijing

"The rebels destroyed the pontoon bridge on the Mahu River."

"You just watch them destroy it and don't stop it?"

"The rebel army is destroying the other side of the bridge, and there are tens of thousands of Qiang people waiting in front of them. Even if we send dozens of sword soldiers to guard the bridge here, we dare not go there to stop it, because it is sending us to death. .”

"Tens of thousands of rebels?"

"Yes, the rebels came out of Leqiang City again. After they destroyed the pontoon bridge, they began to march south and never returned to Leqiang City."

"You mean that the rebels abandoned Leqiang City?" Tang Tianshu was a little surprised.

"Looking at the situation, it should be like this. I won't tell you any more. I have to report to Mr. Jiang immediately." After the scout finished speaking, he flew into Liangjiang Town.

"It seems that our battle has frightened the rebels." Xue Chang said in a comfortable mood.

"Yeah, maybe our time to go home will be much earlier." Tang Tianshu was thoughtful.

..............................................................................

In a large mansion in Liangjiang Town, the leaders of the anti-insurgency army gathered again. Li Bosong first praised the martial arts army greatly, not only wanting to give them their first meritorious service, but also said that they would report their heroic performance to the court .

This made Jiang Shijia, Bian Jinlin, Dugu Changhui, and even Ye San and Ye Ziqiong present all look happy.

"However, I didn't expect that the rebels would abandon Leqiang City so quickly, which made our plan to surround and destroy the main force of the rebels in Leqiang City fail." Li Bosong looked at the crowd and asked in a deep voice: "The rebels After the main force retreats to the south, our original plan can no longer be implemented, so what should our army do next? Do you have any suggestions?"

Deputy General Ning Mingkuo said: "General, the rebels abandoning Leqiang City is actually a bad move for them. We can easily occupy Leqiang City. There are multiple ports in the city, which can facilitate our food and luggage from the barracks. It was transported to Leqiang City by ship and turned into a forward base for attacking the rebels.

Although I haven't received the latest information yet, I think the main force of the rebels will probably retreat to the attached city. Using the fairly good city defense there, backed by the thorny road in the south, they can get continuous support from Sheng Qiang and fight us. A persistent defensive battle. "

"Hmm..." Li Bosong murmured, "It's very possible."

"General." Ye Ziqiong couldn't help but said: "I've read the information about Laifu City. Its walls are not high, and the defense facilities outside the city are also very simple. Moreover, it is located on a plain, so it is impossible for it to block it. Our army's tens of thousands of soldiers plus siege equipment stormed the city.

What's more, most of us martial arts people can jump up the city wall that is less than two feet high with light work. Even if the rebels have the support of Sheng Qiang, the city will fall after a short period of defense.

Miao Wuhen is very cunning, it is impossible for him not to know this, I think he will probably not defend the city, but lead the troops to withdraw to the south of the Thorn Road, and use the vast mountains there to continue to deal with our army ..."

Ye San looked at the eloquent Ye Ziqiong with a look of relief. He knew how hard this immature girl had been working hard during this period. She worked hard to learn military knowledge and actively asked him for battlefield experience in order to be a better leader. The iron-blooded Changhemen has won battles on the battlefield to be worthy of the noble blood flowing in her body. She is indeed the best heir to her master!
"Master Yemen's suggestion is very reasonable!" Tang Yunxian, an officer in Southwest Jimi Prefecture, said first.

In his 30s, he has no wife and only one concubine. It was the first time in his life that he saw such a beautiful woman. He was shocked, but he knew that the status of the powerless self and the other party was too different. , but there was still a shred of hope in his heart, so he seized this rare opportunity to show off his talents: "But I don't think the rebels will do what you said—"

He deliberately paused, but the girl didn't ask, but just looked at him, as if to listen.

"Over the past 30 years, the Shu Qiang has thrived on the plains along the river, and its population has increased by five or six times. However, although the Sheng Qiang living in the south of Jidao occupies a wider area, their population is much smaller than that of the Shu Qiang. Therefore, Shu Qiang is the main force of the rebel army.

Even if the traitor Miao Wuhen has the ability to make all the raw Qiang living on the plain along the river retreat to the south of the Thorn Road, the vast mountains there are barren and cannot support so many people, and the mature Qiang is used to farming , unable to adapt to the mountain life of hunting in a short period of time, chaos will inevitably arise over time.

I even think that many Shuqiang tribes will not abandon the land they have cultivated for many years and follow the rebels to Laifu City. "

"Taught." Ye Ziqiong bowed her hands and thanked earnestly.

"Master Yemen is talented, intelligent, young and promising, but he doesn't know much about the Qiang people." Tang Yunxian returned the gift modestly, but he was very happy in his heart. He turned to Li Bosong and said, "General, take advantage of the main force of the rebel army to retreat to the south. At this time, please allow the humble officials to go to the Shuqiang tribes along the river plain to persuade them to come and surrender, which can also weaken the strength of the rebel army and cause discord among them."

This time, Li Bosong said decisively without much thought: "Ning Mingkuo, in a moment, you will inform the Navy and Flying Fish Gang that they will send a boat to transport our soldiers across the Mahu River in the early morning of tomorrow. The landing plan is still the same as today. .”

"Yes!"

"After the army occupied Leqiang City, Tang Zheng, you went as an envoy to persuade Shuqiang tribes to surrender, and you told them that if they didn't surrender, when the army arrived, people and animals would all die, and not a blade of grass would be left!"

"Uh... yes." Tang Yunxian groaned secretly. Li Bosong's toughness unintentionally made it more difficult for him to persuade, but he dared not object in person.

Li Bosong looked at the deputy general Ning Mingkuo, then at Ye Ziqiong, and said forcefully: "Whether the rebels defend the city or retreat to the south of the Thorn Road, our army will immediately go to Leqiang City after a short rest. March south until you surround and capture Laifu City, and then formulate the next military plan according to the situation."

Seeing that Li Bosong had made a decision, Jiang Shijia, Bian Jinlin, deputy general Ning Mingkuo, and Tang Yunxian, who was in charge of Southwest Jimi Prefecture, were about to get up and obey.

But Ye Shan said, "I have a suggestion."

"Fan Yanghou, please tell me." Li Bosong became very respectful to Ye San, not only because of Ye San's title, but also because the other party did have real skills, and it was because of his suggestion that he got it Great victory in the landing battle.

"Now the army has passed the Shu River and will continue to march south, but we have overlooked a place - Rongzhou Barracks, where supplies and supplies for the entire army are piled up, but there are only 500 soldiers there? Or 1000 soldiers stationed? "

Before the deputy general Ning Mingkuo could respond, Ye San continued: "You may think that we have completely sealed off the route for the rebels to go north, and the rear is absolutely safe. Ordinary soldiers can't get through, but martial artists can do it. I believe this time the landing battle has let you see the power of the trained and assembled martial arts people in ordinary battles, but in fact the martial arts army is even more terrifying because they can do surprise attacks that ordinary troops cannot. Don't use common sense to speculate about an army with many martial arts people."

Li Bosong frowned, and asked solemnly: "Fan Yanghou, do you mean that the rebel army will probably send those thieves with martial arts skills to raid the Rongzhou barracks?"

"Not necessarily, but it's always good to plan ahead." Ye San replied.

"General, this time we killed and injured nearly [-] killers trained by Miao Wuhen in the Battle of the River Beach. According to previous information, he may have about a hundred of his subordinates with martial arts skills." Jiang Shijia said hastily.

"The Rongzhou military camp can't be lost!" Li Bosong said decisively: "Ning Mingkuo, you should dispatch 1000 soldiers to return to the Rongzhou military camp immediately to strengthen the defense. Commander Jiang, according to the situation of your own troops, you should also dispatch enough troops to resist the rebels' surprise attack." Return to the Rongzhou military camp immediately, this time the defense of the Rongzhou military camp is mainly in the charge of your martial arts army!"

"Yes!" Jiang Shijia responded with some excitement. He felt that the just-concluded battle had won the respect of Li Bosong, and he was only given this important task.

In this military meeting, Dugu Changhui did not interrupt from the beginning to the end, just like a clay sculpture.She had figured it out that she didn't know anything about commanding operations, so she simply didn't speak to avoid making a fool of herself.

However, Li Bosong and Ning Mingkuo respected her equally. After all, her heroic deeds of "standing proudly on the bridge and forcing the surrender of five hundred soldiers with one sword" spread throughout the army, and not everyone could do it.

..............................................................................

Xue Chang's scout team lived in a house in Liangjiang Town. He was already very tired and fell asleep on the bed. When he was woken up, he thought it was time for dinner, but Tang Tianshu Informed: They received a new order to return to the Fangrongzhou barracks immediately.

Most of the hundreds of people in the entire martial arts army were wounded in the Battle of the River Beach. The leader of the army was Bian Jinlin. His status as a commander was beneficial for him to command the ordinary soldiers stationed in the barracks at the same time.Considering that most of the people transferred back to the barracks are from Bashu martial arts, the deputy team leader was selected as Master Jingxin.

This is a request she made voluntarily. As a Buddhist monk and nun, large-scale killings on the battlefield are still too cruel and bloody for her, so she would rather give up the opportunity to do meritorious service on the battlefield and return to the Rongzhou military camp to face the possible rebellion. The sneak attack of the military martial arts people.

As for the scout team, apart from Xue Chang's return from the fifth team, there is also the sixth team composed of Goddess Palace, which was personally appointed by Commander Jiang Shijia. It is necessary to continue to attack the rebels, and even go deep into the vast mountains south of the Thorn Road, so more experienced scouts are needed.The barracks is mainly for defense, and the requirements for scouts are not high, and the two newly-built teams are sufficient for the job...

The reasons are very good, but no one knows whether he really thinks this way in his heart.

................................................

After breakfast, Xue Chang practiced boxing in the yard to eliminate food; Xiao Hongzhang silently wiped his sword as usual, occasionally looking up; Qin Hankuan lay back in the room to catch up on sleep.

Tang Tianshu opened the door and came in, and said in a low voice, "I have some bad news for you, we have to continue patrolling today."

"Didn't we patrol yesterday? Shouldn't it be Team Six's turn today?" Xue Chang was a little surprised, thinking that Tang Tianshu had made a mistake.

"The order given by Palace Master Gu requires us to obey." Tang Tianshu said in a slightly dejected manner.

Xue Chang was taken aback for a moment, and immediately said, "It's not fair!"

"Why is she?!" Xiao Hongzhang, who was usually taciturn, couldn't help but say something at this moment.

"Just because of my old age, I was appointed as the person in charge of the scouting team of the barracks." Accompanied by this cold voice, the oldest female Taoist from Goddess Palace stepped into the yard.

Although these two scouting teams were in the same scouting team a few days ago, and they lived next to each other, and they couldn't see each other when they looked up, but because the Goddess Palace people don't communicate with others, Xue Chang and the others are completely unfamiliar with them, and they rely more on blindness to identify people. Guess.It wasn't until the two teams were left in the barracks by Jiang Shijia that Xue Chang and the others knew that this elderly female Taoist was Gu Shijing, the current goddess palace owner.

At this moment, Gu Shijing stood in the courtyard with an indifferent face, and the other three female priests also walked in.

Xiao Hongzhang, who was originally angry, stopped talking.

Tang Tianshu put on a smiling face: "Master Gu, let's take a short rest and go patrol in a while."

"I think you are all quite leisurely, what are you doing resting, hurry up and go on patrol!" Gu Shijing waved her hand, urging impatiently.

A sense of righteous indignation welled up in his heart, and Xue Chang couldn't help saying loudly: "The scout team has its own rules, and everything must be done strictly according to the laws! The head of the Hanshan School, Leng Yuntian, has been the captain of the scout team for many years, and he has never favored his disciples. Each team takes turns to patrol, and Palace Master Gu, you are just a temporary appointment, what right do you have to tamper with the regulations of the scout team! Considering that you are new to the army and are not familiar with it, as long as you act according to the regulations again, we will still obey you Order."

The righteousness of Xue Chang's words made Gu Gongzhu's old face alternately green and white, and the other three female priests, especially the young female priest Tang Tianshu suspected to be Luo Lanmeng, opened their clear eyes wide, very Looking at Xue Chang in surprise, it was the first time she had seen someone dare to speak to the uncle like this.

Gu Shijing's eyes pierced Xue Chang like two cold sharp swords.

Xue Chang faced it calmly.

After a moment of silence, Gu Shijing asked in a cold tone: "Which sect do you belong to? What's your name?"

Xue Chang said loudly: "My surname is Xue Mingchang, and I have no family or sect."

"No family, no sect..." Gu Shijing snorted softly: "Why was the Great Zhou army set up? In a big way, it was to protect the people of the Great Zhou, and in a small way, it was to protect the emperor! The former owner of Goddess Palace and my teacher My uncle is the current empress dowager, and my junior sister is—"
