Chapter Three Hundred and Twenty-Four: The Scholar Encountered the Soldier
Chen Sanlang took the lead and the castle was fierce. Later, Zhou Fencao saw him, but was frightened. In this team, everything was centered on Chen Sanlang. An ancient saying goes: How could Chen Sanlang lead the way and charge into the battle without a gentleman standing under a dangerous wall?
What if something happens?
Zhou Fencao was so anxious that he looked at Xu Nianniang like help, hoping that he would take action.
Xu Nianniang said calmly: "Don't worry, he won't have any trouble."
Zhou Fencao felt a little calm, but he was always a little nervous. You must know that this is not a joke. On the battlefield, there is no sight of swords and guns. Who can say the accident accurately? He wanted to send all the Zhuang soldiers to help, but Chen Sanlang had an order in advance, and now the Zhuang soldiers who are guarding the supplies and family cannot move.
I really couldn't move, because many bandits had already swarmed from other directions and came toward this side.
In this moment, the assault team led by Chen Sanlang had already handed over the front with the old bandits of Jiaoshan led by the three cavalry and killed them into a group.
Chen Sanlang knew very well the principle of capturing the king first. He ignored the rest and had to kill these three thief leaders first, with the sword sharpening his sword and targeting one of them.
He was not Ameng, the first time he went to Yongzhou, and he killed countless thieves and had rich practical experience. But these were not known by Zhou Fencao and others.
The thief's head used a golden-ring sword, which was quite powerful. He saw Chen Sanlang's blue shirt and his face was fair, but he was just a scholar, and he looked a little contemptuous. He was not careful and was bullied by Chen Sanlang, but he still couldn't figure out what was going on. He felt cold under his ribs and was stabbed by a sharp blade, screaming in pain.
With a sword, Chen Sanlang skillfully carried the reins, controlled the steering of the war horse, drew the sword with his backhand, swung the evil sword and slashed at another thief head on the side.
The thief used a steel gun. Seeing Chen Sanlang's unexpected fierceness, he was panicked a little and quickly raised his gun to block it.

The handle of the tough wooden spear, which was as thick as the mouth of the cup, was cut off by a sword, and the sword edge fell down without any obstacles. Blood was sprayed. The thief's head groaned and fell off the horse, and died so much that it could not die again. The thief's head who was stabbed by a sword just now lay on the back of the horse, unable to move, and was dying.
However, when the meeting was done, the two thief leaders were killed, and the remaining one was stunned. He felt a cold air rise from the tailbone until his forehead, and he couldn't help but let the cold sweat slip. A voice in his heart shouted: "Hell, what's the county magistrate?"
Without hesitation, he turned his horse to escape.
Chen Sanlang was not willing to let him escape. He clamped his legs, the war horse under his crotch neighed, and chased after him with a quick arrow.
Although they are all war horses, there are advantages and disadvantages. Chen Sanlang's mount is obviously much faster than the thief's head. He chased him closer in a blink of an eye, his hands raised his sword and his head rolled.
Chen Sanlang was brave enough to kill the three thief leaders in a row, and it was like a god descending. The bandits were shocked to death when they saw it, and their momentum was subsided. No one knew who led the lead and turned around and ran away. As the saying goes, the army was defeated like a mountain. When they saw a companion running away, the others were not stupid. They followed them and were defeated in a flash.
This is not to say that Chen Sanlang has become a peerless master, and taking the head is like taking things out of his pocket. It is really because of this group of Jiaoshan bandits. In fact, Song Zhiyuan was right before. Most of this group of people were ordinary people in Yongzhou, and they were honest and stuttering. It was just that in a chaotic world, they flocked to thieves.
It is more than enough to be a thief and bully the good, but once you encounter a person with orderly training, it will be vulnerable.
Among them, there were only three thief leaders. Once the thief leader died, the rest became a mob. Some old thiefs still wanted to resist and save the defeat. However, many of the thiefs under Chen Sanlang were not vegetarians. Chen Sanlang led the way, which greatly increased the morale of the entire team. Just kidding, all the adults were slashing with their swords. How could they not fight hard?
The old saying goes: " Raise troops for a thousand days, use troops for a while."
That's when.
Most of these Zhuang soldiers were born in poverty and had a difficult life, and could not eat enough to cover their stomachs and clothes. However, since they applied for Zhuang soldiers, they lived in Chenjiazhuang, Jingxian County, and they lived well and had no need to do anything except training. Training was hard, but this kind of life with meat every day was simply a dream to laugh.
This life was given by Chen Sanlang, and everyone knew very well that without Chen Sanlang, they would be a group of poor people who had to dig food in the soil even if they fought to the death.
The gratitude should be repayed. The Zhuang Bing's duties were mainly to guard Chenjiazhuang. After migrating, the guard's target became Chen Sanlang.
They were Chen Sanlang's soldiers, and this prerequisite was established from the first day of recruitment.
Zhuang soldiers are actually private soldiers. In fact, many gentry and tyrants will support this type of people in their families. The larger the family, the more private soldiers there will be.
The soldiers of Chenjiazhuang are not outstanding in training. After all, they lack leading talents. However, they are very generous in equipment. They are all leather armor and can withstand many attacks. On the battlefield, there are quite a few differences between armor and armor. Although leather armor is not as good as heavy armor, compared to Buyi, they don’t know how much they win.
In addition to leather armor, the weapons they control are also good steel products, sharp and durable.
The gap in equipment is often an important factor in determining the outcome. Chen Sanlang is invincible, and in the rear, the baggage troop surrounded by hundreds of bandits seems indestructible. The Zhuang soldiers who were responsible for the staying behind are all long spears, shields, shield defenses, and spears counterattacks.
After ragged bandits were rushing to the first wave, they did not dare to rush up again after falling down dozens of corpses. They just surrounded them and kept screaming, using bows and arrows, and even threw stones. However, most of the few bows and arrows in their hands were made of earth, soft and lacking strength, and had a short range, so it was difficult to cause damage. Not to mention throwing stones and pieces, they were like fighting with gangsters, and there was no rules at all.
They surrounded them to wait for the thief leader. Unfortunately, they soon found that the other side was even more miserable. All the thief leaders were killed and the team was defeated. At this point, everyone knew that the team in front of them was not easy to mess with, so they ran away one by one. In order to run faster, they threw away all the weapons in their hands.
The Zhuang soldiers did not pursue them because Chen Sanlang ordered them to protect them and was not allowed to leave the baggage and his family.
Of course, these bandits have nothing worth chasing. One important motivation for chasing on the battlefield is to seize military achievements and confiscate spoils.
Nowadays, the concept of military achievements can be ignored. As for the spoils... hoes and hatches all over the ground, what are you going to do?
The battle happened quickly and ended quickly, almost one-sided situation. Chen Sanlang's first quick entry into Yongzhou was completed. The price he paid was just a minor injury to five people. Among them, the one who was seriously injured was Song Zhiyuan, who was hit by a cold arrow.
