I’m The King Chapter 1255: : Carry on the past and usher in the future (one hundred and forty-five) in disguise
Lengshui Village is now in ruins. When the Yueyi Army fled into Cang'er Mountain last year, they fled along the road in front of Lengshui Village to Lengshuigou, and then fled all the way into Cang'er Mountain. The insurgents who fled here ransacked and stole almost all the rations and livestock in the village. Then the Qin army chased them, and the people of Lengshui Village who had just lost their homes immediately fell into the slaughter. The Qin army could not catch up and fled into the village. The rebel army in the mountain turned around and killed all the men in the village, beheading their heads as a result of the battle.
Lengshui Village, without the men, just fell into disrepair. With the failure of the Qin army to suppress the uprising army on Cang'er Mountain, the improvement and suppression became a siege, and Lengshui Village became an important checkpoint again. The Qin army repaired it here. A military village was set up, blocking the road from Lengshuigou into the mountain. There are more than ten military strongholds blocking Cang'er Mountain like this, distributed around Cang'er Mountain. Lengshuigou is the largest of them. Originally there were 300 troops stationed there, but with the land reform in Shu County, the disturbances in Shu County became more and more serious. Small-scale riots have already begun in some places. Compared with Ziyang County It's not bad, but Zhou Liang is a bit struggling to deal with it. He is in charge of the bandit suppression in Ziyang, Ningqiang, and Nanzheng counties. Originally, he didn't care about the harvest disturbances, but he took The manpower is short and the mouth is soft. Officials from all over the country saw that the army came forward to be much faster and more effective than the government officials, so they kept making demands on him, so that he had to keep sending the army out. It was a bit poor. Cope with it.
With insufficient troops, they began to mobilize soldiers and horses to besiege the various military villages in Cang'er Mountain. Of the 300 people in Lengshuigou Military Village, 200 people were transferred to suppress the riots in various places.
In Zhou Liang's view, after more than a year of blockade. The bandits in Cang'er Mountain have long been out of control. This can be seen from the fact that they have never tried to go down the mountain to attack the military stronghold. They have no food, drink or supplies in the mountain. These people may have become savages long ago, leaving a hundred It is enough for people to look at the army village, not to mention that these people are just going out to suppress them. Go and come back quickly, that is, a matter of a few days.
The military stronghold under the night. The moonlight dragged the shadows on the ground long and long, and the shadows were clinging. On the top of the military village, several lanterns gave off a faint blush feebly. Lengshui Village, a few miles away, is in ruins. Although it has only been more than a year, there are only ruins left here. When the military fortress was built, basically everything that could be demolished there was demolished.
This army trained by Meng Tian was once the leader of the Qin army. But in the past two years, he was ordered to enter Shu to suppress the uprising of the peasant army. A well-trained army can easily deal with a mob of peasants, without any suspense, they will win in one battle.
But after being stationed in Shu County for more than a year, this former tiger and wolf division. Like their leading generals, they are slowly degenerating. The once strict military discipline slowly disappeared from them. It was much easier to burn, kill, rob, and loot than to guard those few salaries.
Or their combat effectiveness is still there, but an army that has thrown away discipline is no longer as brave as it used to be. On the top of the military village, two soldiers were leaning against the wall. One of them was holding a chicken leg and a jug in his hand. They were eating and chatting. Their weapons were casually leaning against the wall.
For these soldiers, the happiest thing is that every ten days when they are on duty, they can take their money to the brothel in the town to have a good time, which was unimaginable before Yes, Meng Tian ruled the army very strictly back then, and later Zhou Yu took over, and the military regulations were even more strict than before. A person who has no foundation in the Qin army wants to secure the position of general, and naturally he must be severely punished.
I was ordered to go to Shu County to suppress the uprising of the peasant army. This army is like a bird out of a cage. If there is a strict general leading it, it will not cause much trouble, but their general Zhou Liang He was the first to be assimilated by the officials of Shu County. Under the temptation of money and women, Zhou Liang fell completely. The upper beam was not straight and the lower beam was crooked. , and finally all the soldiers.
The two soldiers happily chatted about the most beautiful woman in the town. When that woman was living the best life, she didn't even notice that the two shadows were already on all fours, crawling all the way to the wall of the army camp just under them, just under them.
A moment later, the sound of regular footsteps came from the direction of Lengshui Village. The two soldiers turned their heads when they heard the sound. Come in the direction of the army stronghold.
The two soldiers glanced at each other, "Why did you come back after going out for two days? Isn't this time you will be transferred to Ning Qiang?" A soldier said casually.
"Maybe before leaving the county, the place has already been pacified. What can a group of farmers do?" Another soldier laughed.
"Ning Qiang!" The soldier who spoke first was stunned, and looked at the soldiers who were getting faster and faster, "Then why did they come from the direction of Lengshui Village?"
At this question, another soldier was also stunned, blinking, staring at the group of Qin soldiers who were approaching quickly, and suddenly shouted, "No, they are not ours, they are.... "
Without uttering a word, the wall of the village was lowered, there were two abnormal noises, and the two soldiers let out an uh. , the jug fell to the ground, and they covered their throats with both hands, trying to scream, but the arrow was shot so accurately that it completely destroyed their throats, and the two of them collapsed to the ground, clutching their throats.
Under the wall of the village, two nooses swished up and caught the wall stacks on the wall. Climbed up, and more people climbed up. With the creaking sound, the suspended suspension bridge was lowered. Immediately afterwards, the gate of the village was easily opened from the inside.
In the Lengshuigou military stronghold, in an instant, there was a cry of killing.
The Cang'er Mountain Rebel Army led by Niu Teng succeeded in one blow. Hundreds of rebels took advantage of the sharp decrease in the guards of the Lengshuigou Army Village and the opportunity to reduce their vigilance. They basically occupied the Lengshuigou Army without paying any price. stronghold. The more than a hundred Qin troops stationed in Lengshuigou were completely killed by the angry rebels, leaving none behind.
"How's the situation now?" Niu Teng, who was standing in a pool of blood, looked at a man dressed in local clothes in front of him, and asked.
"Ziyang County is now extremely empty. Five days ago, a large-scale peasant riot broke out in Ningqiang County. I personally took the army to Ningqiang to quell the riots, now is the best opportunity."
"How much time do we have?"
"One day!" The spy said, "Zhou Liang has quelled the Ningqiang disturbance two days ago, and will return to Ziyang the day after tomorrow at the latest. We have one day to take down Ziyang, and then count Zhou Liang, Zhou Liang It is Ning Qiang, Ziyang, and Nanzheng, the only combat-capable Qin army in the three counties. If he is destroyed, these three counties will be ours. Now the farmers in these places are on the verge of breaking out. Start the fire, I believe it will soon become a prairie fire."
Niu Teng took a deep breath: "I have been staying in the mountains this year. I don't know much about the outside world. How much work have you done and how many people have come? I don't want this uprising , like last year’s peasant army uprising, which rises quickly and loses quickly.”
"General, don't worry, this time the National Security Bureau has invested a lot of money. Over the past year, we have sneaked in a large number of people, and we have also stored a batch of weapons and armor. The key is that this first battle must Fight well, and then take advantage of the fact that it is difficult for the Qin army to mobilize troops to destroy us for a while, and grow rapidly."
Niu Teng smiled grinningly: "If you still can't win this battle, I will write the word Niu upside down. You go, tomorrow, I will take down Ziyang, and then I will destroy Zhou Liang. You can Start preparing for the incident."
"Okay, then I'll go first." The spy saluted Niu Teng, turned around and disappeared into the darkness in a hurry.
Watching the man disappear, Niu Teng turned around and shouted loudly: "Assemble the whole army!"
An hour later, hundreds of rebels put on the uniforms of the Qin army and headed towards Ziyang.
Guo Qing, the magistrate of Ziyang County, has been feeling a little guilty these days. Because of the land reform, there have been frequent riots in various parts of Shu County, and the garrison is exhausted. ~ It made him extremely worried that it would happen in Ziyang. Ziyang is no better than Ning. The people here are more fierce and aggressive. The exposure of Ziyang farmers a year ago not only shocked Shu County, but also shocked Qin. Guo Qing felt that if Ziyang also came If there is a riot like Ning Qiang's, it is definitely not to encircle the county government, but to rush in with a knife and a gun to kill himself.
Bisheng Zhou Liang took the garrison to Ningqiang to quell the riot there. There were no soldiers in the city, so Guo Qing felt that he had no idea! Especially a few days ago, Guo Kuo, that is, his distant relative and two yamen servants lost their lives inexplicably, which made him even more terrified.
"My lord, I'm back, I'm back!" Outside, the county head Bo happily rushed into the county mansion.
"What's back?" Guo Qing yelled annoyed at Zhu Bo.
"My lord, General Zhou's army has returned. I just reported at the gate of the city that the army has already entered the city." The master Bo said happily: "My lord, don't worry about it now!"
Hearing that Zhou Liang's troops had returned to the county seat, Guo Qing's heart finally calmed down, but he put on airs in front of his subordinates, "What am I worried about, what do I have to worry about?" (to be continued)
