Chapter Seventy Mr. Hu

There is no doubt that the scouts are serious soldiers. But if the scouts don't stop at night, they are not exactly serious soldiers. Their military pay is more than that of regular soldiers, but compared to regular soldiers, Ye Bushou does not pay attention to the military formation, but focuses more on the abilities of each individual.

Those who open large formations, face powerful enemies, crush them with majestic formations, pay attention to coordination, and integrate advance and retreat are true soldiers. This is not the case if the night is not harvested. But when they perform their tasks, they are equally dangerous and bear heavy responsibilities.

If you don't want to collect it overnight, you must have the ability to do it.

Ying Yi has more than 3,000 soldiers and horses. In terms of average quality, he may not be very strong. More than 3,000 young people were selected from eight or nine thousand young men, a ratio of less than three to one. And one hundred and twelve nights without harvesting is the best among the more than 3,000 people. Putting it in the entire Crescent Valley, it is a ratio of one to eighty or ninety.

While most of the soldiers were still unarmed, they were already fully equipped.

For the time being, it is known that there are more than a hundred people who can do it.

In the dim night, Ying Yi crossed his sword and straddled his horse, scanning them with his eyes. They looked like a rabble these days. Those who are good at using swords use knives. Those who are good at using bows use bows. Everyone has different abilities, weapons, armor, and even images.

It's not possible to rely on them to start a grand formation, but when it comes to causing trouble, these people are the best.

"There are many thieves, but I am few." Ying Yi said solemnly: "But you have to distinguish between right and wrong in battle. The more people you have, the more powerful you will be. You won't be able to train with me for more than half a month, but you are all capable people. Let me see what you are capable of tonight. Remember, we are not here to confront the traitors head-on. We will leave as soon as we touch them. We will never procrastinate, scare off the enemy, or be reluctant to fight."

Everyone was silent.

"Go, use the small flag as a unit, and let the thieves see how powerful you are."

In silence, the night fell into pieces, and a group of pairs disappeared into the darkness.

In the end, Zhang Shi's team was left, but he stopped talking.

Ying Yi waved his hand: "Go and leave me alone."

"Yes, sir." Zhang Shi took a deep breath and rode away.

Ying Yi looked at the team of thieves who looked like a black dragon in the distance and couldn't help but chuckle: "It's a good time to seize souls..."

He clamped down hard on the horse's belly, and disappeared into the darkness amidst the faint sound of the horse's hooves.

...

The bandit soldiers meandered and spread for several miles. The lights were dim and not a fanfare. If the bandits were compared to a python, then Li Guo's position would be seven inches away from the python.

Yes, it didn't surprise Ying Yi. The leader of this bandit army is none other than Tiger Li Guo. Among Li Zicheng's men, there was only one named Li who was qualified to lead tens of thousands of troops. Li Guo was the only one.

He was astride a horse, carrying a gun, and was fully armored. He had a fierce cloak on his back. If you didn't know that he was a thief and had bad behavior, and with his sharp face, he really could have been a young general.

"It's because I didn't know about it. If I had known that the Ming Dynasty military pay was here, how could there have been such a commotion now." Li Guo's voice was calm and somewhat elegant. It's just that what I think in my heart is different from what I say in my mouth.

The last time he came here, he came to welcome Cao Cao and Luo Rucai. I didn't know about military pay at that time. I thought that if I knew about it, I would never be able to escape this military pay. But there was always a brazen figure in his heart that made him grit his teeth.

That night, that fire, that person!

There was a middle-aged man riding next to him, dressed in sackcloth and unkempt. Hearing this, he smiled and said, "In my opinion, it's not a bad thing."

When Li Guo heard this, he couldn't help but smile and said, "Mr. Hu, what do you think?"

Mr. Hu said with a smile: "There are good and bad under King Chuang's command, but if you want to achieve great success, you must cut off some dead branches and leaves. Isn't this just the right time?"

Li Guo was startled for a moment, then nodded with deep understanding: "What you said is true."

But he added: "But military pay is important, so let's not mention it for now."

Mr. Hu laughed, dropped the topic, and said, "The person the general was talking about earlier..."

When Li Guo heard this, he couldn't help but look self-deprecating: "This man is fierce, and I won't deny it. I was really frightened by him. Otherwise, I wouldn't have asked my uncle to lend me my husband to help."

He had a look of recollection on his face: "When my uncle asked me to come to greet Mr. Luo, he was not far ahead. When it got dark, I camped in a forest to rest. Unexpectedly, in the middle of the night, fires broke out on all sides, and everyone Everyone was panicked and couldn't stop scolding. There was a man who broke into the rebel army and was invincible. Dozens of my close friends fell into his hands, and even the fire blunderbuss was dodged by him. The man only had a stick, and he beat people as hard as cutting grass. Da Infinity came with a stick, pierced several of my confidants, took them out and nailed them to a tree five to six feet away."

Speaking of this, Li Guo couldn't help but become murderous: "I thought it was officers and soldiers attacking, but later I found out that it was just this one person. It was really a shame and a big insult. That person just knew me and would kill me sooner or later, but I didn't know where I had offended him. Kill him! This kind of person has the courage of an overlord and is really difficult to deal with. This time it’s up to you, sir.”

After hearing this, Mr. Hu's rosy face showed a strange color under the weak firelight, and he said with a smile: "From what the general said, this person is really not an ordinary person."

Li Guo nodded and said: "I think he is indeed not an ordinary person. He is only one person, and I have more than a thousand elite cavalry, but he dares to come and kill me. How can he be an ordinary person with such courage? And he also defeated me and destroyed my generals. . I don’t think he’s an ordinary person. I’m afraid only an outsider like Mr. can deal with him.”

Mr. Hu laughed and said, "Don't worry, general. If this person doesn't show up, we will catch him once he shows up. But I have a condition."

Li Guo said without hesitation: "Sir, please speak."

Mr. Hu said: "General, kill this man and the body belongs to me."

Li Guo thought of Mr. Hu's origins and abilities and couldn't help but said immediately: "This is natural."

After that, Li Guo talked about military pay again.

"My uncle has been besieging Kaifeng for a long time. It is a shame that the people in the city refused to surrender, which caused our army to run out of money and food. This time, the two million taels of military pay is really a blessing from heaven. Be sure to get it. The Ming Dynasty worked hard to achieve this, haha, it's not just for me. My uncle made a wedding dress? I have been marching for three days in a hurry. Before dawn today, I will arrive at the southern foot of Fangcheng Mountain. I will see the right moment and hit the target with one strike, making no mistake."

"It's just that the situation here is not very clear. I don't know whether the military pay is in the hands of the Ming army or Hao Yaoqi. Does Mr. Hu have any insights?"

Mr. Hu said with a smile: "The general is coming with a large army. With the power of Mount Tai, who cares about the Ming army or Hao Yaoqi? If it is in the hands of the Ming army, it will defeat the Ming army. If it is in the hands of Hao Yaoqi, it will be easy to use some tricks." , Isn’t it the same as having it at your fingertips?”

Li Guo nodded slightly: "After all, Hao Yaoqi is a close confidant promoted by my uncle. He may be greedy, but as soon as my army arrives, he must obey me no matter how unwilling he is."

"That's the truth." Mr. Hu said with a smile: "To remove dead branches and leaves, you can't use force or be too hasty. He can still be used against the enemy Ming army. Once the Ming army is defeated, everything will be easy."

Li Guo smiled and said: "Sir's words suddenly enlightened me..."

At this moment, there were hurried horse hooves trampling over: "Head of the family!"

Li Guo's expression changed: "Call General!"
