Chapter 609 Patrol out of the city
Daling River City now only has Zu Dashou's Qian Zong stationed and guarding it. In addition, there are five thousand civilians responsible for building the city. Although Daling River City was destroyed by Hou Jin last year, it now seems to have begun to take shape and has a certain
defensive capabilities.
Mazi sat upright on his horse, looked at Daling River City and curled his lips and said: "If you have the damn money to build the city, you might as well make up for the arrears of military pay."
Wang Wu also let out a long sigh and said, "Stop saying a few words, you idiot, otherwise you will die from this mouth sooner or later."
Although Mazi was rude and arrogant, he respected Wang Wu very much and kept his mouth shut.
A group of people entered Dalinghe City on horseback, and the gatekeepers came to check their waistbands and documents, and checked them one by one before letting them enter the city.
Seeing this scene, Liu Zhi and Li Yi looked at each other and nodded, understanding that Inspector Yuan was not drunk when he asked them to inspect, otherwise where would this document come from?
Because the military order was with him, Li Yi could not inquire whether the Momen giant was in Dalinghe City, so the group went directly into Wengcheng and rested in a simple thatched hut.
The weather was cold, and all four of them breathed cold air. Wang Wu walked over with his hand on the handle of the knife, opened Liu Zhi's cotton coat, and saw that he was wearing fine cotton armor with silk lining inside. He couldn't help laughing and said: "You
The boy is smart. Even if the cotton armor is penetrated by an arrow, the silk can block the arrow. Do you have a helmet?"
Liu Zhi took out an iron hat from the package. This iron hat was made of leather, nailed with iron armor, decorated with red tassels on the top of the head, and had ties on both sides to protect the head.
Wang Wu stepped forward and pulled off the red tassel on the iron hat and threw it to Liu Zhidao: "This thing is too conspicuous."
Armor is a soldier's favorite thing. Liu Zhi picked up Hongying with some distress, but he was not angry because he understood that Wang Wu was telling the truth.
The Sentinel Cavalry of the Ming Dynasty can be said to be the most powerful group of officers and soldiers. However, due to the financial constraints of the Ming Dynasty, military pay could not be paid. The armor, clothes and weapons were very old. Compared with the well-equipped and fierce Sentinel Cavalry of the Later Jin Dynasty,
, at a disadvantage.
If they want to patrol the Daling coast, it's best not to provoke those fierce Houjin sentries.
Wang Wu checked Liu Zhi's armaments and then turned to look at Li Yi.
Li Yi held the tiger tooth gun and said: "I have no armor, only this gun."
Wang Wu looked at the Tiger Tooth Gun, said "Good gun", and then said: "Just wait, I will borrow a suit of armor for you."
After saying that, he raised his legs and walked out.
But Mazi, who had been recharging his energy, came over and looked at the tiger tooth gun in Li Yi's hand with a surprised look on his face, and said: "This gun looks extraordinary, are you still a cavalry general?"
Liu Zhi on the side smiled and said: "Brother Mazi, don't look at Li Yi's gentle temper. He is a fierce general with a long spear in the pass, sweeping away his opponents. If you go to Baoding and mention his name of An Xin Young Tiger, that person
I don’t know, no one knows.”
Hearing this, Mazi laughed and said: "You kid, you actually lied to me. If you are a fierce man, I still believe that this Li Yi has smooth palms, thin skin and tender flesh, can you still be a fierce man?"
Generally, people who practice martial arts have calluses on their hands, but for some reason, Li Yi's palms are very smooth. Although Liu Zhi knows how powerful Li Yi is, he can't explain it.
Seeing that Liu Zhi was speechless, Mazi laughed and said: "You two are good, not like that useless young master before, otherwise I wouldn't bother to talk to you. Take my advice, and listen to Brother Wang Wu in everything outside the city.
If so, he was originally from the Liao Dynasty and had participated in the Battle of Saarhu. He knows the situation outside the Pass best."
Liu Zhi heard this and asked quickly: "Brother Mazi, do you know why the Superintendent suddenly sent us to patrol the border?"
After hearing this, Mazi said indifferently: "The temperament of the supervisor is unpredictable. Don't tell me, Wang Wu and I have been following him for two or three years, and sometimes we still don't understand."
At this point, he lowered his voice and said, "You just need to understand that the Supervisor's words and actions are different from ordinary people."
Different?
Li Yi and Liu Zhi looked at each other and both agreed.
Wang Wu came back after a while, threw the borrowed armor in front of Li Yi, and said: "Have a good rest tonight, we will set off before dawn tomorrow."
Everyone took orders and went to rest.
Before dawn the next day, Wang Wu called everyone to wake up and prepare to set off.
The order they received was to inspect the situation along the Daling River. It didn't mean that they could just walk around the Daling River. They also had to go to Shisanshanyi, Guangning Youtunwei, and Guangning Youtunwei on the other side of the Daling River.
In the north, Yizhou Guard, Gouhe Village, and Taipingbao were inspected, especially Youtun Guard, which was stationed for defense by the Eight Banners Army of the Later Jin Dynasty. It was very difficult to detect the situation.
The group crossed the Daling River and headed directly towards Thirteen Mountain Post.
When a group of them entered the area of Thirteen Mountain Post, the sky was just getting bright. Wang Wu asked Mazi to watch the horses and slowly approached Thirteen Mountain Post with Li Yi and Liu Zhi.
Although this is a stronghold shown on the map, it has been abandoned since the rise of the rear army, leaving only ruins and walls that can only block the night wind.
Wang Wu did not relax his vigilance. He looked around and whispered: "Be careful. Hou Jin's sentries often spend the night here, and there may be enemies inside."
Liu Zhi slowly drew out his sword and whispered, "I'll go take a look."
Wang Wu nodded and said: "Be careful."
Liu Zhi was very agile and took advantage of the darkness to lower his body and slowly crawl towards the ruins.
Li Yi and Wang Wu waited quietly. After a while, Liu Zhi came back and said with lingering fear: "Brother Wang, there are seven Tatar soldiers inside, five wearing armor, and two wearing only cotton clothes. It looks like they are Tatar soldiers."
Aha, there are more than 20 Han Chinese people tied up in the corner. It seems that they were robbed from the nearby village."
Wang Wu nodded when he heard this and said: "Zu Dashou said two days ago that small groups of cavalry from the Hou Jin Dynasty often come to plunder the population. It seems that these people were robbed by the Tatar soldiers and wanted to be transported to the Hou Jin Dynasty to enrich the population."
Liu Zhi heard this and said excitedly: "Brother Wang, there are only seven of them and they are not prepared yet. If we can sneak attack, we may not be able to annihilate them all and achieve great success."
Liu Zhi came outside the pass just to make meritorious deeds. When he saw the opportunity to kill the enemy, he was willing to give up.
Despite Liu Zhi's excited persuasion, Wang Wu remained unmoved.
He looked at the gradually brightening sky and said, "Go back first."
Liu Zhi had no choice but to endure his desire to perform meritorious service and returned to the place where his war horse was hidden.
When Mazi saw them coming back, he quickly asked: "Boss, is Thirteen Mountain Station safe?"
Liu Zhi understood that people like Mazi who liked to lick blood from the edge of the knife might have similar thoughts to his own, so he quickly said: "There are seven Tatar soldiers in Thirteen Mountain Station. If we take advantage of them, we can annihilate them all."
them."
You know, beheading at this time is a reward and a reward. Mazi was very moved after hearing this, but Wang Wu next to him didn't say anything and could only look at him with questioning eyes.
Although Wang Wu was fierce, he was not an impulsive person. He looked at Liu Zhi and said, "Have you seen clearly how many of them are wearing armor? What kind of armor are they wearing, and what weapons are they carrying?"
Liu Zhi said quickly: "There are seven of them in total. Two of them look like Aha, wearing sheepskin coats and only have waist knives and spears. The other four are wearing copper-nailed cotton armor, iron helmets on their heads, and holding arms in their arms."
A fine iron sword, a riding bow hanging on his waist, and a tall man wearing white iron armor and an iron helmet, with a saber hanging on his waist, and a tiger spear leaning against the wall."
Before Wang Wu could speak, Mazi on the side took a breath and said: "Damn it, the leader seems to be a white-toothed soldier, and the other four are also horse soldiers. They are all tough and difficult to deal with.
"
The army of the Later Jin Dynasty was mainly divided into three types: guard troops, camp troops, and unarmored troops.
Among them, the Guard Army was the most important combat force of the Hou Jin Dynasty. It was the most well-equipped and the most adept at fighting, and the Baibaiya Labing was a type of Guard Army.
The camp troops mean armored soldiers, and they are mainly divided into the horse armor army and the soldier armor army, which refers to the two branches of cavalry and infantry. They can be regarded as the backbone of the Eight Banners soldiers and the main combat troops.
As the name suggests, the unarmored soldiers are troops with low armor coverage. They are mainly composed of Han Baoyi and Houjin ethnic minorities. They carry simple weapons and are responsible for assisting the camp troops and guard troops in combat.
Although there were only seven Eight Banners soldiers that Li Yi and the others encountered, they already included Hou Jin's guard troops, camp troops and unarmored troops, all types of troops.
Wang Wu also said: "It's very difficult for us to deal with these four horse-armored soldiers and two unarmored soldiers. The white-toothed soldiers headed by them are even more difficult to deal with. Even if I confront them, it will be difficult to kill them cleanly."
Let's discuss whether he should take action or not?"
Although Liu Zhi knew something about the outside world, he had never fought against the Eight Banners Army and had no idea of its combat effectiveness. Now his mind was filled with thoughts of meritorious service. As soon as Wang Wu finished speaking, he said eagerly:
"What are you thinking about? The four of us took the opportunity to attack in a sneak attack. We first killed the White Tooth Soldier and three horse-armored soldiers, and then only one horse-armored soldier and two unarmored soldiers were left. Aren't we easy to deal with them?"
Although Liu Zhi's statement is very idealistic, it is not unattainable.
You must know that the head of a Bai Bai Ya La soldier is enough for an ordinary frontier soldier to be promoted to three levels in a row. Mazi worked hard outside the customs just to get promoted and make a fortune? At that moment, he was a little moved.
"Boss, I think we can give it a try. Even if we can't kill four people at once, as long as we kill two, we are still somewhat sure." Mazi said.
Although Mazi and Liu Zhi both agreed to take action, Wang Wu was still very hesitant.
In fact, he was very confident in his skills and wanted to perform meritorious deeds. However, he was here to patrol this time. In fact, the supervisor asked him to inspect Li Yi and the other three. If he missed it, Liu Zhihe would
If Li Yi had an accident, it was his fault.
He looked at Li Yi, who had been silent, and said, "Li Yi, what do you think?"
Li Yi thought for a while and said: "There are dozens of Ming people in Thirteen Mountain Station. As sergeants, we are responsible for protecting our homes and the country. If we miss this opportunity when we clearly have it, I think everyone will definitely think about it afterwards."
Regretful."
Obviously, Li Yi also agreed to take action.
"Fuck, let's do it." Wang Wu listened to Li Yi's words, his eyes became firm, and he said: "I will sneak attack on the White Tooth Soldier, and the three of you will each sneak attack on a vest soldier. No matter whether it is successful or not,
You must go all out, otherwise you will die."
Mazi was also a desperado. He smiled and said: "In my eyes, the Tatar heads are nothing but white money. How could I miss them?"
