Chapter 666 Taiping

When this small army set off in a stately manner, the main army, Alixi's family members, and even their families were alarmed.Many people gathered at both ends of the road in the shack area, asking each other what happened.

Zhang Pingliang's wife, Mrs. Li, also left the house. Under the flickering candlelight, she looked worriedly at her newly married husband with her big talking eyes.

Zhang Pingliang puffed up his chest and waved to her.

To join the army in this world, the most important thing is to have a heart like a stone.Even if Zhang Pingliang is not considered a ruthless figure in the army, he has killed more than [-] people in his hands in the past few years, and he has seen thousands of dead people on the battlefield.The death of two villagers in Houhu Village was nothing to a senior soldier like him.

But one thing, no one can stop Zhang Pingliang, the general of the Dinghai Navy, from taking his new wife to live in the newly renovated yard!The thieves scattered all over the capital are no good, let alone the wavering and hesitant pawns in the headquarters!

At the same time, there were also generals on duty to report the news to Liu Ran, the capital guarding Yutian County.

"Let him go."

Liu Ran waved his hand.

The deputy general pondered: "I'm afraid the entourage is a little less manpower. There are at least 50 people entrenched in Koizumi Mountain, half of them have served as soldiers in Dading Mansion, and they are ruthless characters."

"Zhang Pingliang took fifteen people and two horses, which is enough. He decided to set off so suddenly, and the night march must be along the Lihe River to the north, 37 miles away. He would have to walk all night, and then enter in the early hours of tomorrow. In the mountains... the thieves were caught off guard, and it was impossible to resist them."

Liu Ran still has a lot of confidence in Zhang Pingliang's martial arts and his ability to lead the team to fight.

Among the three brothers with different surnames who escaped from the chaotic situation on Beijing Road, Liang Hu fought with the black army and died in front of Liu Ran.Liu Ran has been promoted to the capital all the way by virtue of his merits, while Zhang Pingliang is not easy to stick to the wall.

Fortunately, he is a man with a family, and he will never be as muddle-headed as before.

Marshal Guo regarded the tens of thousands of soldiers in Dinghai as his confidantes, and the benefits he gave were generous. The wealth of his own family, and even the wealth of his descendants, were clearly in front of his eyes.Whether you can get it in your hands depends on whether you are active enough and willing to contribute to the great cause of the Ding Navy.

Talented and active people will naturally get various opportunities, and Liu Ran himself is an example.He also heard recently that in Jinshan outside Juyong Pass, some Khitan captives were promoted to be generals, and some Han slaves who returned from the grassland were promoted to military prisons within ten days and a half months.

At present, the Mongols are defeated and there is nothing wrong with them, but the expansion of the army and the enrichment of many institutions are getting closer day by day.But if you can't see the situation clearly, and you don't want to keep up with this turbulent trend, people who have been moving forward can only leave it behind.

After thinking about it, Liu Ran was a little worried again. He pointed to one of his subordinates: "Oh...you take twenty cavalrymen and follow them from a distance. If there is nothing wrong with this trip, you can bring them back again."

The friendship between Liu Ran and Zhang Pingliang is not hidden from others.This kind of nostalgic general is the most reassuring thing on the battlefield.The subordinate immediately took the order with a smile, and turned around to arrange for the cavalry.

Liu Ran's estimate was right.

In the early morning of the next day, Zhang Pingliang rushed into Koizumi Mountain with his team.

Because of the night march, they carried pine torches throughout the journey, and had no intention of concealing their whereabouts.When we arrived at Xiaoquan Mountain, it was already twilight again, and there were still several miles away from the village occupied by bandits, and the bandits in the village woke up with a start.

The sound of beating gongs and drums and shouting sounded at the same time, and many bandits climbed up the fence shirtless and began to draw bows and arrows, trying to block the mountain road in front of the village.There were also people who recognized that some of the small group of Dinghai soldiers were old acquaintances, and they felt betrayed, so they scolded them very loudly.

Zhang Pingliang completely ignored them.

These routs are the enemies of Dinghai, an obstacle to Dinghai's restoration of peace, and the bane of the surrounding people's endless complaints!Damn them!

On the way here, he has repeatedly explained the truth to the soldiers; he has already given all the steps to kill and defeat the enemy, and now he does not want to say a word more.It was the order of Liu Ran, the general of the garrison, to exterminate these bandits.Now that you have joined the army, those who disobey the order will be beheaded!

Two cavalrymen rushed forward, threw heavy iron hooks, and turned the horses back. The rope tied to the front bridge of the saddle was suddenly tightened, and then a section of the fence was pulled down.

There was a gap of more than two feet, enough for ten elite soldiers with helmets and armor to rush in.Zhang Pingliang himself is a good fighter on the battlefield, and his subordinates have become proficient in the small formation of five, the coordination of sword shields and spearmen, and the cover of archers.In contrast, the thieves have no rules at all.

They tried to confront Zhang Pingliang's troops head-on, and then they were killed bloody, with knives and guns thrown all over the ground.Seeing that the situation was not good, several leaders who looked like they immediately fled to the stables at the back, and then were chased by the cavalry, who slashed and killed them with knives behind them.

When Zhang Pingliang stood in the middle of the stockade, less than half a quarter of time passed.He and none of his ten men were killed, only three were injured, and there was no expression of excitement on their faces. However, the Alixis who rushed into the village later saw blood, dead people, severed limbs, and internal organs that flowed out. Started to turn pale.

Soon, a group of captives gathered in front of Zhang Pingliang, and he pointed to the people around him: "Bulky Eye, Monkey, Pua, you three go, pick out the leader, and kill them all."

These three soldiers were accused by Zhang Pingliang earlier, and had an old friendship with the thieves in Koizumi Mountain, so they have been refusing.These three people are also soldiers who fled from Dading Mansion to Zhongdu, and they all use nicknames to call each other.It is called "Pu'a", which means pheasant in Jurchen language.

Before, they thought Zhang Pingliang was young and looked down upon him, but now they saw him be ruthless, and they were vaguely afraid.When they marched, they also found that there seemed to be traces of cavalry chasing behind the team. It was obvious that they would all be specially sent to escort the formation... Who would dare to obey?

Bu Yan took a deep breath, turned to the monkey and said, "Damn it, go."

The monkey shook his hand: "We can't blame us for this, there's nothing we can do about it."

Such an old soldier has a side that values ​​the friendship of comrades-in-arms, but also a cold side.After all, each of them has experienced the massacre of the Mongols. As long as they have seen the scene where there is no distinction between men, women, and children, and the corpses are scattered all over towns, villages, mountains, and wild fields, they will not hesitate to kill at all.

The two of them were still talking, and the pheasant strode forward and squatted beside a kneeling bandit.The thief really knew him, grinned, and said in a hoarse voice: "I'm comfortable enough, you should do it quickly!"

Pheasant muttered twice, then pulled out the short knife from his waist, aimed at the gap between the cervical vertebrae, and pressed down hard.

The blade pierced into the bone, and after a little stagnation, the pheasant increased its strength, and then used a skillful force horizontally.With a click, the two joints of the cervical spine were separated, and then he slowly cut off the flesh and blood vessels. When the blood stained his arms and chest, the bandit's head and body were completely separated.

When holding the thief's head in his hands, Pheasant felt a little uncomfortable.He still remembers that when he was guarding Shiziling, he fought side by side with the dead. Later, when the masses fled south, they did a lot of looting along the way. Pheasant's family and relatives were also taken care of by him.

It's a pity that the world has changed. In the peaceful days that Ding Haiwan wants, people who are used to acting recklessly cannot be tolerated.The officers and soldiers of the Ding Navy must maintain the iron-clad order laid down by Marshal Guo in the vast territory, and no one will be allowed to challenge it.

He raised his head, put it in front of Zhang Pingliang, and bowed slightly to the young general.

Buyan and Houzi stared blankly, and after a while they also drew out their knives and walked towards their target.

The scene that followed was much more noisy than before, and the remaining bandit leaders were not as stubborn as Pheasant Killer.Some of them cried, some begged for mercy, and some scolded the protruding eye and the monkey for their lack of loyalty, but the result was the same, and they were all killed one after another.

The smell of blood in the air was much stronger than before.

"Everyone did a good job." Zhang Pingliang said with satisfaction: "When I return to the city, I will be the host and invite everyone to eat meat!"

The action of exterminating this group of thieves was indeed a bit slow, but once it acted, the superiority of force of the Ding navy officers and soldiers was fully revealed, and the victory was very straightforward.After this scene, the higher-ups can't continue to criticize Zhang Pingliang anyway, and the brand-new big courtyard promised to him will be fulfilled sooner or later.

In that case, Zhang Pingliang would have an explanation for Mrs. Li, so he treated his subordinates to a meal, and there was no financial pressure.

Zhang Pingliang himself came from a very humble background and couldn't read a few big characters, but that doesn't mean he didn't know much.Li Shi's skin is as smooth as jade, there are no calluses on his hands, and he is not used to serving others.Although she was always dressed in ordinary clothes, her bearing was very graceful and elegant.This is obvious, although her natal family doesn't say anything, but Li must be a lady with a history.

Such a good woman married me, Zhang Pingliang, and treated me so considerately.She just wants to have a yard to enter, is it too much?
Not to mention the courtyard, even if she wants more, she has to fight for it!Fortunately, I have this body of martial arts, and I am covered by Brother Ran... In the future, I will follow the army to fight everywhere, and I will definitely make more contributions!I have to let my wife and the children I will have in the future have a good life!
