Eighty thousand!

Huo Bao was not surprised.

There was a young leader in Bozhou. The court was eager to suppress bandits, so it was definitely a large army.

Just ask for help?

According to what Shui Jin had learned before, among the 50,000 soldiers and horses in Bozhou, Marshal Sun was the leader and had the largest number of troops, while the other four were almost the same.

The scouts investigated, and the soldiers from 6,000 to 9,000 were almost all of Monk Feng's main force.

Monk Feng surrounded him but did not kill him, which obviously left a way out for himself.

But the soldiers coming were six thousand or nine thousand, and they were different.

Huo Bao glanced at Zhu Qiang, and Zhu Qiang compared "six" with his hand.

Huo Bao felt very calm and said directly: "My sixth uncle is on tour, ten miles away, let's go there first!"

...

When Huo Bao and others arrived at the camp, the leader of the Ma village had ordered the cooking and the camp was pulled out after the meal.

Seeing Huo Bao leaving and returning, the leader of the village was not happy but was surprised. He was relieved only after hearing the reason.

"Is it Marshal Feng? I've heard of Daming for a long time!"

The leader of the Ma Village sat down with confidence, but was not in a hurry.

"It's a meeting and a fate. I also asked General Yin to pass on the message on behalf of Lao Ma, saying that Lao Ma was going to disturb dinner!"

This is an appointment and I will go by before night.

But now it’s just the first time (five in the morning)!

The two armies are thirty miles apart!

The leader of the village Ma understood that even if the Chuzhou army took the initiative to meet, they could not be tired soldiers.

Otherwise, he would be a fool!

At dawn, smoke in Chuzhou camp was curling.

General Yin was sweating on his forehead.

When he went to Chuzhou, his main task was not to see Marshal Huo send a message to ask for help, but to borrow food.

Before, the group avoided the pursuit of the imperial army and took a detour to Liangshan. They thought they could suppress several bandit camps along the way to replenish food and grass, but unexpectedly they lost everything.

Yesterday at noon, I was killing horses at night.

A horse can produce about 300 kilograms of meat.

I killed ten horses for two meals yesterday, but I can only count as half a pound of meat per person, and I can drink enough water.

Unexpectedly, I met the leader of Chuzhou halfway.

The one who made Huo Bao called him "Sixth Uncle" was Huo Shuai, who was born in Black Python Mountain, and his brothers were named Huo Shuai.

Where is this a tour?

It was obvious that he got the news and ambushed the soldiers in Bozhou.

If those two thousand newcomers hadn't come out to intercept them, they would have been defeated today!

General Yin was very afraid, but he also knew that with the two thousand new recruits, he could have a good talk.

Between the thick skin opening and killing, he chose to open his mouth.

"General Ma, we have been out of Bozhou for ten days, and the food and grass are cut off. Can we borrow some food and grass first?"

The leader of the village was surprised: "I have been away from Bozhou for more than 400 miles and walked for ten days? Did the official dog set up a checkpoint?"

“…”

General Yin said: "We come from Duliangshan!"

The leader of the village Ma pondered and said, "Did Bozhou... be surrounded ten days ago?"

General Yin nodded, his expression was quite strange.

The face of the Ma village leader immediately drooped.

Before the officers and soldiers surrounded him, all the personnel withdrew from Bozhou, which was suspicious!

He didn't mention going to see Marshal Feng, but leaned back to the chair and said, "What does Marshal Feng mean? If you don't make any sense of the reason, I, Lao Liu, are really afraid!"

Collaborating with officers and soldiers?

So what does it mean to come to Chuzhou?

General Yin could not see his misunderstanding, and quickly explained: "It's really just a coincidence... Marshal Sun welcomed the little leader into Bozhou, but the big guardian around the little leader had a good relationship with Marshal Liu. Marshal Sun was angry and wanted to form an alliance with our Marshal and wanted to attack Marshal Liu. Marshal Liu heard about it and invited our Marshal to have a drink and wanted to give our three sons to our Marshal as adopted sons... The Bozhou army saw that chaos was going to arise, and our Marshal was unwilling to form an alliance and did not want to be affected, so he led the crowd to avoid it... Unexpectedly, on the day he left the city, he found that Shandong soldiers had arrived in Bozhou before..."

Both the leader of the village and Huo Bao were staring at the young general.

This person doesn't seem to be lying.

The uncle and nephew looked at each other.

Monk Feng, who has lost his foundation, has no need to force him too much to prevent him from jumping over the wall.

The head of the village Ma said, "We are also on a temporary patrol. The food and grass are limited. First, we will take two cars to deal with it. Then we will find a way to do it if we have the rest."

One truck of grain, five stones, two trucks, ten stones, and one meal of porridge is enough.

General Yin hurriedly thanked.

The master of Ma Village ordered people to go down and prepare food and grass.

Zhu Qiang pulled Huo Bao's sleeve and the two of them came out to speak.

"Master Bao, my subordinates have to go back. Shi San has not released General Jin yet, and he has ambition to die..."

Huo Bao was so angry.

Is it shameless now?

When I was eating the courage of the bear heart and leopard, I just thought about success?

This is a war, not a dream.

If I had met Monk Feng’s army...

How many new students can be left?

I really don’t dare to think about it!

"Bao Master, it's not entirely true that Shi San is planning well... Who would have thought that the real monk Feng was hiding behind and kept letting General Jin show up... If it weren't for the wrong person being arrested, this would have been done!"

Huo Bao said angrily: "You don't know your mistake yet? What are you fighting? One or two thousand new recruits, who have not been trained in a day... How dare you? This is killing people, killing your own people!"

Zhu Qiang's face was pale and he didn't dare to tell the difference anymore, and said, "Master Bao, I...I..."

Huo Bao remembered the first time the Child Barracks of Heimen Mountain was first established, and he felt a little regretful: "It's my fault! When he was fighting for the sergeant in Heimen Mountain, he allowed you to win with a trick, so that you all have the will to take advantage of the situation and did not teach you the right way!"

Shi San is not rude in his bones, but he also knows the importance of it.

If there were only Shi San and his men, even if they had the idea of ​​a surprise attack, they would probably give up.

Zhu Qiang likes to calculate and is gambled when doing things. He doesn't want to miss anyone who can fight.

The two of them got together and their courage doubled.

Zhu Qiang red eyes and said, "Master Bao, Shi San has done something, but he will not die. It's more of my fault! Shi San had this idea, but he was worried that the soldiers would be damaged and could not explain to Master Bao. He was about to retreat... It happened that we were at night and we joined forces with the army twice. It was because I encouraged him to continue to do things, which made a mess..." Speaking of this, he wiped his tears: "The General Jin should be the arm of Monk Feng. Monk Feng dared not act rashly, because he was worried about him... Shi San asked me to come back and send a letter to Master Bao, saying that if the person who came was not good, he would first deal with General Jin and cut off his arm..."

Huo Bao was speechless.

Kill the opponent's arm, will you be buried with your own two thousand newcomers?

Seeing Zhu Qiang's panic expression, Huo Bao was not good to say anything else.

After all, I was just a thirteen-year-old child. I was so scared that I experienced so much in one night.

Think about Shi San again...

They are all naughty kids!

"Go! Tell Shi San that the hundred households are gone and the deputy captain of the archer is gone! His fault this time is a death penalty, but it is hard to spare the crime of living. Forty boards, he deserves to be beaten to the end!"

Zhu Qiang's eyes lit up and he hurriedly said, "I've recorded everything, I'll tell him now!"

"Hmph! You haven't left behind! Whether you are walking outside or staying behind, I have repeatedly reminded you to put people first and save your life when you encounter problems! When you encounter teams that are unknown to us, you retreat and hide and protect yourself, which is the credit; you want to give the sheep a tiger's mouth! With such a brain, how can I feel assured to let you continue to lead the troops? You are a veteran of the child army camp, and you shouldn't be so stupid. You have to snatch the sixty-year-old board and beat it to the end!"

Zhu Qiang looked a little depressed, but he still nodded and admitted his mistake: "Don't be angry, I know I'm wrong, I will never dare to act freely in the future..."

...

Because the grain carts were not running fast, it was almost Chen Shi when Zhu Qiang and his party arrived at the Bozhou Army's garrison.

The camp has already ignited.

Five more horses were killed.

No one expected that the Chuzhou Army was thirty miles away.
To be continued...
