Pirate Song

After Gao Huaiyuan slapped him, the surrounding village heroes were all stunned. They all shrank their necks in fear, thinking that this kid named Gao is really cruel! He even beat up the county captain, what else?

People didn't dare to beat him up, so they quickly lowered their heads, not daring to see the joke, and thought to themselves, be more honest and don't offend this person, otherwise it would be troublesome if he moved his head!

Gao Huaiyuan also didn't expect that he would strike so hard in his anger, and actually slapped Fatty Zhou unconscious. After being stunned for a moment, he waved his hand to Zhou Hao and said, "Liu Zhou has worked hard all the way, and now he fainted from exhaustion."

, help him go down quickly, rest here temporarily, and inform his subordinates to be on guard and rest in place!"

Zhou Hao was happy when he heard this. He knew that Gao Huaiyuan was going to temporarily detain this damn fat man, so he called a few people over and helped lift this fat man up to a half-empty cart.

His men knew that he was at a disadvantage and came to cause trouble.

At this time, Fatty Zhou was so desperate that he was about to wake up. Li Ergou, who was following Zhou Hao, did not say a word. He stretched out his hand and cut the guy on the back of his neck. With a squeaking sound,

Then he fainted again. Several people looked at each other and smiled. Zhou Hao gave Li Ergou a thumbs up and said, "Look at this guy and let him sleep a little longer. Don't cause trouble for our boss!"

Li Ergou nodded, sat next to Fatty Zhou, and faithfully followed Zhou Hao's orders. Whenever Fatty Zhou tried to wake up, he would hit the guy's head with the hilt of the knife to make him faint again.

, I knocked three or four big lumps on this guy in a row, and then he finally lay down and rested.

After Gao Huaiyuan solved the problem of Fatty Zhou, he ordered the supply camp to be on alert. Everyone strung their bows, unsheathed their swords, and were ready for battle at any time. At this moment, his uneasiness became more and more intense.

I always feel like something is going to happen.

Sure enough, after a while, the sound of horse hooves was heard, and several war horses emerged from the night. Several archers were so startled that they almost let go of their arrows. Fortunately, when they got close, Huang Yan called out to one of his own.

There was no mistake or accidental injury.

"Boss! Our army is nowhere to be found in Xiaoyizhuang. I found someone and asked. The Jin Army has sent troops to attack Lord Meng's camp in the past two days. Lord Meng left the camp and led the troops yesterday and disappeared without a trace!

I also found out that Xiaoyizhuang has now been occupied by the Jin army. Basically all the people here have fled. The Jin people killed the old, weak, women and children left in the village. About a dozen Jin soldiers in the capital are now living in Zhuangzi.

Li! And the Jin army has about two thousand troops and is stationed five miles east of Xiaoyizhuang. Fortunately we didn't run into it, otherwise we would have been in trouble!" Huang Yan saw Gao Yan as soon as he saw it.

Huaiyuan jumped off his horse and quickly reported to Gao Huaiyuan.

Upon hearing this, Gao Huaiyuan immediately asked: "Since Jin Bing is in Xiaoyizhuang, how did you find the locals to ask about this matter?" He immediately discovered the flaw in Huang Yan's words.

Huang Yan then replied: "We are lucky. Before we arrived at Xiaoyizhuang, we wanted to hide the horses in a small forest, but we happened to meet a few people who had escaped from the village.

They have caused us a lot of trouble, and now those people are still in the woods! I was afraid of delaying things, so I didn’t dare to bring them over!"

After Gao Huaiyuan asked about this matter, he secretly thought it was a fluke. Fortunately, he was a little more alert tonight. Otherwise, he would have led the convoy all the way to Xiaoyizhuang. Although the Yidu Jinbing there was not a problem,

But once a fight breaks out, it will definitely alert a large number of Jin soldiers east of Xiaoyizhuang. It will be difficult to escape by then!

At this time, the people around were also wiping cold sweat together, thinking that they were lucky. Fortunately, the commander himself was alert, otherwise he would have been in big trouble! Especially the new recruits, they no longer sympathized with Fatty Zhou.

, I felt that the guy really deserved the slap he received from Gao Huaiyuan. Well done!

Xiaoyizhuang could not go now. Although they did not hit the Jin soldiers, Gao Huaiyuan faced a huge problem. If Meng Zongzheng led his troops to retreat, where should they go to find Meng Zongzheng's Song army now?

? It stands to reason that when Meng Zongzheng was evacuating, he should have sent people to the direction of Xiangyang to inform him of this heavy transport team, but for some reason, he did not meet his men.

Gao Huaiyuan thought nervously for a moment, called Jia Qi, Huang Yan, and Zhou Hao over for a brief discussion, and then immediately issued an order: "Turn around immediately, rush to Qifang Town, and station there to wait for news from our army! Action

Be quick and don't make any noise! ​​Huang Yan continues to lead the way, while Zhou Hao and two people from the capital are responsible for the rear!"

Everyone immediately responded to the order and passed on Gao Huaiyuan's order. The team suddenly became a little confused. They thought they could go to the camp to take a rest, but they didn't expect that something went wrong, and they were so far away from the Jin Army.

As they approached, many people began to panic, beating their mules and horses one after another, and hurriedly turned around on the road. As a result, they failed to achieve their goals and became more and more panicked. In addition, Gao Huaiyuan had an order not to light torches, so they huddled together on the road.

group.

Gao Huaiyuan led a few people to rush over. One to two hundred large cars were crowded into a pile. It was really not easy to turn around at once. Moreover, it was such a dark night when the ignition could not be started, and it was a crowd of people.

When we are together, forget about this mess.

Gao Huaiyuan rushed to the front of the team to clear them one by one. He worked for most of the night before he finally cleared the team and rushed back to Qifang Town along the original road.

Qifang Town is not big, with only a hundred or so households. In order to protect themselves, the residents here used to build an earthen wall around the town. It is said to be a town, but in fact it is more like a stockade. On weekdays, this is a market town.

It was a place where ordinary people conducted transactions, but since the Jin army attacked here, the people in the town were afraid of military disaster, so most people took Xinruan and fled to Xiangyang with their families, so it seemed very cold here.

Gao Huaiyuan and his party are already acquaintances here. They have gone back and forth several times. They know that Qifang Town is the only relatively safe place in this vast place. So when they felt that they could not find the army, they immediately thought of

After arriving at this place, we took these people and materials with us and temporarily retreated here to look for Meng Zongzheng's army again.

When they retreated to Qifang Town after much trouble, the sky in the east had begun to brighten slightly. As they entered, the town suddenly became lively. Fortunately, the Jin Army did not attack here, and no one was attacked yet.

Despite the damage, all facilities are still in complete condition.

After Gao Huaiyuan ordered everyone to enter the town, he immediately asked his men to seal the two town gates. He first controlled the town gates, and then felt a little more relieved.

He really couldn't understand what Meng Zongzheng and Hu Zaixing were doing. Aren't they fighting well? Why did the Jin army get here? Even the small Yi Village where they were stationed was occupied by the Jin army.

Where did they go? This thing is really weird.

Jia Qi, who has been following him all the time, thinks that Meng Zongzheng and the others are going around in circles with the Jin soldiers. Maybe they are retreating to advance, hoping to disperse the Jin army's forces and then encircle and annihilate them. This is his only choice.

I can think of an explanation!

Gao Huaiyuan could only explain it this way after thinking about it! But he was a little worried about what happened this time. He felt that Meng Zongzheng and the others should send someone to inform him first, otherwise, he would accidentally bring so many people with him.

Throwing things into Jin Bing's place is equivalent to giving all these things to Jin Bing!

Unable to figure out this matter, he stopped thinking about it. In short, what he should consider now is how to ensure the safety of these people and goods, and how to find Meng Zongzheng's whereabouts as soon as possible, hand over the goods to the army, and complete this errand. Who will

Let him be the leader this time!

Just after they entered the town, Gao Huaiyuan sent someone to find Li Zheng here. After revealing his identity, he asked about the situation in this area.

After asking for a long time, the old guy didn't know anything about the question, as if he hadn't asked anything at all. Gao Huaiyuan had no choice but to drive him back and find a way by himself!

But at this time, Zhou Hao, who was in charge of the rear, rushed back with his people. As soon as he entered the town, he immediately shouted: "Hurry to the city gate! The Jin army is coming!"

As a result, the people in the town immediately panicked, causing chaos and chaos everywhere. The gatekeeper immediately closed the gate of the town, and with a bang, he lifted the thick door bolt.

Inside the gate.

"Send the order! Everyone please calm down immediately. The escort teams in each township barracks restrain their subordinates and are not allowed to run around. Without my instructions, they will all stay beside their vehicles! Anyone who dares to disturb the morale of our army again

, shoot to death on the spot!" Gao Huaiyuan looked at the undisciplined village warriors in the town and immediately ordered his subordinates.

So someone immediately rushed to the town, found the rural soldiers or those in charge, and conveyed Gao Huaiyuan's words to them. Although these people were not very convinced by Gao Huaiyuan, at this time, they could only count on Gao Huaiyuan.

, so I had to go around shouting and gathering up my people, whipping them with whips and hitting them with sticks, to keep them under guard and stop running around in the town!

However, there was still a group of people who were disobedient and ran around like headless flies. Gao Huaiyuan had one of them arrested, and upon questioning, he found out that he was a Xiangyong from Fanling County.

"Bastard! Where is your escort team?" Gao Huaiyuan asked angrily, dizzy with anger.

The countryman replied tremblingly: "Young man, I don't know! We didn't see our Zhou county captain last night!"

Gao Huaiyuan is so sweaty! He just remembered that he knocked out the Zhou County Lieutenant from Fanling County last night, but what time has it been? Why hasn’t the Zhou County Lieutenant woke up yet? Is it possible?

Did he use too much force last night and beat that guy to death?

After driving this guy away, he immediately called Zhou Hao over and asked, "Where is Fatty Zhou? Why haven't you returned to his team yet?"

"This... this... I'm going to take a look!" Zhou Hao replied while rubbing his hands.

"Stop talking nonsense and take me to see it!" Gao Huaiyuan felt that something was a little strange, so he immediately scolded him.

When he followed Zhou Hao to a car, he saw Li Ergou sitting in the car, Fatty Zhou lying next to him, and Li Ergou holding a mallet from nowhere in his hand.

Looking at Fatty Zhou, who had a pimple on his head and was frothing at the mouth and unconscious, Gao Huaiyuan was really shocked by them, and he couldn't laugh or cry for a moment.

When a basin of cold water poured on Fatty Zhou's head with a splash, the groaning man finally woke up. He opened his eyes and looked around in confusion. Finally, the pupils of his eyes finally focused successfully and focused on Gao Huaiyuan.

On the body, the fat man immediately struggled and jumped up as if he had been on stimulants, howling and trying to pull the knife and fight Gao Huaiyuan desperately.

But as soon as he jumped out of the car, he fell to the ground again. A dog came and ate shit, and even the meat head's nose was broken. It seemed that his head was still dizzy from all the tossing in the middle of the night!

"That's enough! Let me tell you Lieutenant Zhou, if I hadn't stopped you last night, you would have sneaked into the Jin soldiers' camp in Xiaoyizhuang and either been killed or captured by the Jin soldiers! I saved you.

life, do you know?

We have now retreated to Qifang Town, and the Jin Army will soon arrive outside the town. You should go back to your people immediately and gather your men. If you dare to offend me again, I will be the first one.

Throw you outside the town! Get out of here!" Gao Huaiyuan yelled at the swaying Fatty Zhou, almost swearing. At this moment, he was no longer in the mood to argue with this guy, so he simply spoke out

Threaten him.

Only then did Fatty Zhou realize that he was already in a town. He looked around suspiciously, trying to figure out what was going on. Why was his head hurting so badly right now, and he was still feeling dizzy, but soon

He could see from the people around him that the problem was indeed serious, especially when he suddenly heard the loud horn sound unique to the Jin Army coming from a distance, so his fat face suddenly changed, looking like a rabbit.

Without even farting, he stumbled out and ran out.

"I said Lieutenant Zhou, your people are on the east side of the town! Why are you running to the west?" A young man reminded him very kindly from behind.

"Pass my order, everyone in the baggage camp, except the cart drivers and cooks, should immediately go up to the town wall. There must be no mistakes! Zhou Hao, take people to guard the west gate, and the rest of the people will follow me to the east gate!" Gao Huaiyuan

After beating Fatty Zhou, he immediately gave instructions to the people around him.

Everyone immediately nodded in agreement and took action. All the young men from the transport camp immediately summoned their subordinates and, following Gao Huaiyuan's instructions, drove the new soldiers up the wall.

Gao Huaiyuan looked towards the east of the town through the light of the morning light, and saw that the horizon was filled with steaming yellow dust. The yellow dust was mixed with dots of flags. Judging from the color, it must be the flag of the Jin Army.

, he almost wanted to cry at this moment, why did God take such good care of him? He almost never let him go, every time he came out, he had to meet Jin Jun?

Even the chance of winning the lottery is not so high! Gao Huaiyuan wants to hit the wall now! Even if he wants to come out and experience it, God does not need to favor him so much!

But it happened to be such a coincidence. This time, he happened to bump into him again. A group of golden soldiers rushed towards Qifang Town aggressively. It seemed that their traces had been discovered. This time, the golden soldiers were in a strong position.

Must win!

Gao Huaiyuan really couldn't understand. The Jin army should be still attacking the city in Zaoyang County at the moment, and there were also Meng Zongzheng and Hu Zaixing. Chen Xiang's three troops were restraining them. Why did they bypass Zaoyang now?

County, has appeared in this area? Could it be that the troops of Meng Zongzheng and others have been scattered? If that is the case, then his best choice now is to take his cronies, open the west gate, and leave

Everything, Tao Zhiyao pulled down!

But after thinking about it carefully, I feel that this possibility is unlikely. Meng Zongzheng has a reputation as a wise general, and judging from various signs this time, the Song Army cannot be defeated by the Jin Army so easily. There is no reason for this to happen!

Therefore, Gao Huaiyuan cannot leave a large amount of supplies and run away like this. He is confident of escaping back to Xiangyang from here, but other people may not be so lucky and can run back with him. Anyway, there are nearly two people here.

Thousands of people, although most of them are mobs, the Jin Army is not necessarily as elite as them, so it may be safer to stay here for the time being. If Meng Zongzheng and the others want to defeat the Jin Army, then he is here

Delaying the Jin soldiers here may create a rare opportunity for the Song army.

Thinking of this, Gao Huaiyuan strengthened his belief in holding on to Qifang Town, and issued several orders to prepare for battle. At the same time, he also sent people to immediately invite the commanders of the four accompanying rural soldiers.

Not long after, the commanders of the four township barracks rushed to the east gate, and among them was Fatty Zhou, who had a bump on his head. Looking at him now, he looked a little dizzy.

"Everyone, please! Gao made a long story short today. Everyone knows what happened today. Now our whereabouts have been discovered by the Jin soldiers. Fortunately, we were a step faster and got here first and did not encounter the pursuit of the Jin soldiers in the wild.

This is a good thing for us! But I also want to tell you that although this town has walls, to be honest, everyone has seen that the walls here are not high. If you want to block the Jin soldiers here, I'm afraid it won't be possible.

Easy! I want to hear your opinions!" Gao Huaiyuan asked, staring at the four people.

"This... this... I'm thinking, if it's not easy to guard here, can we go out through the west gate immediately and return to Xiangyang?" A person stammered a suggestion to Gao Huaiyuan. At this time, he was already a little frightened.

He was at a loss. He was just an archer from a small county. He had never experienced such a big scene. So the first thing that came to his mind was to run away and knock him down. After saying that, he quickly looked towards the other three people.

I hope they can support their opinions!dd
