Chapter 238
Born with the courage to be a bully
Zhu Wu and Yang Chun cheered, and a gust of wind rushed over. Cao Cao and others also smiled and hurried forward to greet them.
The bullock cart stopped, Shi En jumped out of the car and said with a smile: "Brother Wu, the rescue went smoothly this time, thanks to brother Zhu Jing's efforts!"
Cao Cao took a look and saw a young man in his twenties with a frail body in the carriage. He was probably the "Nine-Patterned Dragon" Shi Jin. The other man was in his early thirties, with a tough look and a strong body. He was carrying a sword. Naturally, It was the "Iron Gandan" Zhu Jing who helped Shi Jin get out of the car.
Zhu Wu and Yang Chun rushed forward, hugged Shi Jin and cried loudly. Shi Jin escaped from death with red eyes, patted the two of them and said, "Brothers, please don't do this. Where is Chen Da?"
Zhu Wu said: "Chen Dashang is acting as a suspect outside the city. Brother, this time thanks to the heroic action of Brother Wu Zhiwu and Master Lu, we can see each other again."
Shi Jin nodded and said, "Brother Shi En has already told me everything in prison."
At that moment, he cupped his hands towards Lu Zhishen and said, "Brother, you and I are one brother. I cannot thank you enough for my kindness, but it will always be in my heart."
Lu Zhishen chuckled and said, "If something happens to the Sa family, wouldn't you come to save me? What should we care about between brothers?"
Shi Jin nodded deeply and walked up to Cao Cao: "Xiao Ke has long heard that Shandong's 'Wu Mengde' was generous and generous, and his righteousness was so great that it turned out to be even more famous when we met! The brother of the Wu family traveled three thousand miles back and forth for his younger brother. This kind of friendship will last for Shi Jin even to death. memorable."
Having said that, he bowed down and bowed.
Cao Cao quickly helped him up and said with a smile: "I have also heard of your good name as 'Nine Patterns Dragon' for a long time, and I have long wanted to get to know you. It is just a coincidence that I have been able to get Wei Li."
Shi Jin stood up, introduced Zhu Jing and said: "This Zhujie level, Shi Jin has taken great care of him since he was in prison. He never lacked food and medicine. Today he fought hard with Brother Shi En to save me."
Zhu Wu and Yang Chun heard this and hurriedly kowtowed. Zhu Jing hurriedly helped him up and said: "I can't do it, I can't do it. You are such a good man, if I accept your worship, my longevity straw will be broken."
Cao Cao took two steps forward, cupped his hands and said, "Hero, on behalf of these brothers, I thank you for your heroic action!"
Zhu Jing suddenly laughed and said: "Being able to work for 'Wu Mengde' is a blessing for me. How dare you say thank you? Besides, 'Nine Patterns Dragon' is also a rare hero. If he were not alone, I would have let him go."
Ruan Xiaoqi shouted: "Brothers, this is not the place to talk. It's better to defeat his army first, and then we can talk slowly."
Cao Cao said: "Xiao Qi understands! Brothers, now that Shi Dalang has been rescued and He Laogouye has been captured, we only need to defeat the officers and soldiers, and then we will have full success! We should gather our remaining courage and defeat his army in one fell swoop."
When Wu Song heard this, he pursed his lips and screamed, and more than two hundred men rushed out from all directions - one hundred of them were brought by Liangshan, and more than a hundred selected from Shaohua Mountain, all came from the water gate with Cao Cao and others, and ordered them to Huddle around just in case.
Shi Qian reminded: "Before, I watched with my own eyes all the troops and horses heading to the south gate. There were at least three thousand people there."
Wu Song smiled and said: "I have more than two hundred heroes here, and I have an old dog like Prefect He as my hostage. Why should I be afraid of him?"
Zhu Jing said: "In my humble opinion, the defenders saw that Prefect He was captured, so it is not surprising that they surrendered in the wind."
Before he finished speaking, he heard a sudden loud noise from the south gate, reaching everyone's ears.
For a moment, everyone was a little surprised, but Wu Yong suddenly stamped his feet and exclaimed: "Ah! Shi Qian set off three fireworks, which can be seen for dozens of miles away. Given the nature of Zhou Tong brothers, most of them would not sit still and watch. "
Cao Cao's expression changed and he shouted: "I'll go to meet you soon!"
But he said that outside the south gate, Zhou Tong had already retreated several miles away. When he saw the fireworks flying in the city, he couldn't help laughing with his hands on his hips: "Brother's clever plan has come true. Just wait for him to hit the south gate and then he can enter the city... Eh!"
His mind turned around and a thought suddenly came to his mind: "Why should I wait for a mere two hundred people to open the door for me, even though I have a strong team here? Why don't I open the door and pick him up? Wouldn't my brother be happy?"
Immediately he shouted: "Brother Chen Da, quickly get up our troops and break down the city gate to pick up my brother!"
Chen Da was startled: "Brother Wu's general ordered us to call our bluff and lure him to assemble a large number of troops. Now he has gathered many troops. I only have 800 men. There is no ladder or ladder. How can we get in Hongqiao?"
Zhou Tong glanced at Chen Da in surprise, frowned and shook his head: "Brother, I have two old sayings that I have to tell you."
Chen Da saw that he looked very serious and couldn't help but become respectful: "Please teach me, brother."
Zhou Tongtong: "The first sentence is, if the general is out, the military orders will be compromised!"
The original text of this sentence is "The emperor's orders are not accepted." When Zhou Tong heard Cao Cao, Xu Guanzhong and others talking about it, he mentioned how to distinguish the difference between "the emperor and the army".
When Chen Da heard that his words were so elegant and elegant, it seemed that such sentences were only found in books, Chen Da was immediately moved and nodded repeatedly: "Ah, that makes sense."
Zhou Tong was very proud and said: "Second sentence, subduing the enemy's army without fighting is a great good man!"
Chen Da asked in confusion: "This...how can you still produce a good person in a war?"
Zhou Tong also didn't know the meaning of the original sentence, "The best thing is to subjugate the enemy's army without fighting." He quoted it from memory, explained it based on his feelings, and said confidently: "Brother, you really think about it. Fighting, how many sins will you commit? Isn't it you who will die?"
, even if he dies, then if he admits defeat without having to fight the enemy, and no one has to die, isn't this a great good person? It is better than building a seven-level pagoda."
After hearing this, Chen Da became even more shocked and said with admiration: "That's it! Brother Zhou, my brother Zhu Wu is unjustly called the 'Shenji Military Advisor'. When he explained the art of war to us, I, Old Chen, never understood a word. How could you explain it like this?"
Understand? Subduing an army without fighting is a great virtuous man, and it is better than building a seven-level pagoda! You see, I understood it as soon as you said it. It shows that your resourcefulness is superior to that of my brother Zhu Wu!"
Zhou Tong was immediately overjoyed. When he looked at Chen Da again, he was as affectionate as seeing a close friend: "You can say these words, which shows that you have wisdom. Listen to me: Although he has many soldiers and horses, half of them are from outside, and they can only eat us."
Why didn't the other half of Huazhou's army, which was killed and crippled, be taken to attack Shaohua Mountain? They must be useless! There are only a hundred thousand soldiers of this kind, and I, the little overlord, regard them as nothing."
The word "Hui Gen" was learned from Lu Zhishen.
Chen Da nodded repeatedly after hearing this, but still hesitated. Zhou Tong was so angry that he jumped up and said: "The way to be a general must be broken when it is broken. Let me tell you one more thing. If you still don't understand, you don't have the root of wisdom - I, Liang Shanyi
One hundred people, plus your Shao Huashan more than 900 people, the total is more than a thousand people who can fight. My brother has so many leaders, but he only leads 200 people, but he handed over 800 people to me. What is the reason for this? Think about it.
!”
Chen Da originally wanted to say, "Because we have to pretend to be a large army, and there are too few people to light a bonfire." But he swallowed it back before he could say it. He thought it must not be that simple. After thinking about it over and over again, he suddenly came up with an answer: "
Could it be that...in Brother Wu’s heart, you are the most talented general?"
Zhou Tong said proudly: "You and I have only known each other for a short time. If time passes, you won't have to think about it for so long!"
Chen Da woke up from his dream and felt a rush of hot blood. He jumped up and shouted: "My sons, follow me... follow General Zhou to break the city!"
The two men led 800 minions and drove to the city in a grand manner. Zhou Tong waved his halberd and the 800 men stopped outside the range of the bow and arrow and formed a formation.
The officers and soldiers on the city were all shocked: Are they coming to rob the city? But there is not even a ladder, it’s not like that. Besides, if they really want to rob the city, how can they only come with 800 people?
Regardless of what they thought, Zhou Tong laughed three times, rode the BMW, and trotted straight to the bottom of the city.
Chen Da watched from behind and couldn't help but think to himself: How brave! Aren't you afraid that the arrows from above will turn you into a hedgehog?
Zhou Tong, on the other hand, was fearless. He waved his halberd first and said, "Hey! When Zhou came here, he said a few words, all for your sake. If he wants to make a cold arrow, it won't be too late until Zhou has finished speaking."
There were several people on the city who were ready to shoot him, but at this moment they suddenly realized: Well, if this man had no ability to block arrows, how could he have come here so easily? Why should I bother to make a fool of myself. Hey, let's hear what he does.
Say it.
But I heard Zhou Tong shouting majestically: "Hey! Huazhou officers and generals listen carefully. I want my little overlord Zhou Tong to defeat Qingzhou, defeat Zengtou City, and defeat Daming Mansion. I will conquer all the way and be invincible. I have always only
I talk with the sword in my hand, why do I have to wait and talk with you today? Alas..."
He let out a long sigh and showed a compassionate look on his face: "It's just that as I got older and killed more and more, suddenly one day, an idea came to my mind - all the people I killed in my life were all raised by my father and my mother.
We have to endure so much hard work to raise them to adulthood. They have no enmity with me, but they are killed by me. As a result, the family has no breadwinner, no one to care for their parents, no one to take care of their wives and children. Isn't it pitiful?"
His words touched the hearts of many soldiers. There was a sudden commotion on the city tower. A general shouted bravely: "Zhou Tong, you are so awesome. You are so powerful. Fly up and kill me."
."
But more sergeants lowered their heads and whispered: "I think General Zhou speaks sincerely this week. This doesn't sound like bragging."
Zhou Tong seemed not to hear the noise above and said to himself: "Therefore, Zhou Tong made an oath that whenever he attacks the city in the future, he will first persuade before attacking. If you don't listen to my advice, you will be damned. If you are willing to listen, you will be damned."
I advise you to open the city gates and surrender as soon as possible, so as to avoid the tragic disaster of swordsmanship. Zhou has let you go back to reunite with your parents, wives and children. Isn't it better than working for the dog officials? They are corrupt and pervert the law. Are they divided?
You have one article?"
The discussion at the top of the city became more and more intense, and Zhou Tong raised his voice and said: "Don't think that I am deceiving you. If there are soldiers who have been defeated before, you should know that I, Zhou Tong, have never lied - I can do it with just a hundred people."
Thousands of your troops have been killed, and now the 30,000-strong army is ready to attack. How can you stop it? One more thing, you have also seen the boss’s three fireworks just now. Think carefully about what they mean. What Zhou said
That’s it, if you want to shoot me, you can do it. Anyway, I’ll just count to ten, and if I refuse to open the door, we’ll both be destroyed!”
After saying that, he turned around and left. No one really dared to shoot an arrow - a few who wanted to shoot were knocked down by Pao Ze as soon as they raised their bows.
Zhou Tong walked up to the 800-man formation safely and soundly, raised his hands high, counted on his fingers, and shouted: "Ten, nine..."
After saying this, the city tower became more and more chaotic. Some people said that Liangshan's army was indeed powerful and difficult to defeat. Some people were unwilling to open the door and surrender like this. Some people cried and said, "I miss my mother, I want to go home..."
They cried and screamed for a while, making a fuss.
Zhou Tong, however, remained calm and counted indifferently: "Four, three, two..."
Just as the last finger was about to bend, there was a sudden crash, and the city gate opened. Several sergeants, holding bloody swords, knelt at the door: "General, stop counting, I'm willing to surrender!"
Zhou Tong laughed loudly and waved his halberd: "Brother Chen Da, follow me into the city!"
Chen Da had a fanatical look on his face and shouted, "My sons, Huazhou has arrived!"
The two charged first and reached the city gate in a matter of seconds. Eight hundred people behind them also swarmed in. Until this moment, the debate on the city tower had not yet come to a conclusion.
Zhou Tong did not stop, and rushed up to the city along the horse path, shouting wildly: "Those who kneel will be spared death, those who stand will be killed!"
At this time, Cao Cao and others were afraid that he had made a mistake, so they rushed over. Unexpectedly, what they saw was that in addition to twenty or thirty dead bodies, there were more than three thousand people kneeling on the ground.
"Tiger Jumping over the Stream" Chen Da's excited preface was inconsistent with the follow-up, and he reluctantly told the story from beginning to end. Shi Jin, Zhu Wu and others couldn't help but respect each other. Lu Zhishen and Wu Song looked at each other and smiled, and Shi Wengong couldn't help but nodded happily.
Even after Cao Cao heard this, he couldn't help but be shocked for a long time. Finally, he called Zhou Tong, patted him heavily on the back, gritted his teeth and said: "Brother Zhou Tong, you are full of courage!"
Youfenjiao: Born with a bold and overbearing attitude, he never dares to do anything. He thinks carefully about every detail, and his life experiences are bound to be without misfortune.
