Zhu Chongba at the end of Ming Dynasty Volume 1 Chapter 508: White-pole soldiers and black-pole soldiers

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Down the mountain, the two armies glared at each other.  One side holds a white-barrel gun, and the other side holds a black-barrel gun.  The black-barrel spearmen under Xu Renjie looked at each other's weapons and knew that they had met the rightful master. When Zhu Yuanzhang taught them the tactics of the black-barrel spear, he told them that this tactic was Xi Jinping's.  Now that the white-pole soldiers in Sichuan saw the opponent's weapons, the black-pole soldiers knew that they had met the person they had imitated.

    There is no doubt about the enemy's strength. The black-rod soldiers felt that they were in a state of excitement. They really wanted to use the black-rod guns in their hands to fight with the white-rod guns on the opposite side. Let's see.  Who is more powerful.

    The white-armed soldiers on the top of the mountain were a little stunned when they saw the weapons of the black spearmen. They did not expect that there was an army using exactly the same weapons as their own, with the curved hook under the tip of the gun and the ring at the tail of the gun.  , they were exactly the same as the white guns in their hands. In a daze, they seemed to have met brothers who had been separated for many years, and their heads were full of question marks.

    Ma Xianglin obviously also saw what kind of weapons Xu Renjie's soldiers were holding. He couldn't help but sneered on the top of the mountain: "Hey! This is Li Gui coming! We, Li Kui, have no choice but to chop you into pieces with an axe."  It¡¯s two halves.¡±

    "Water Margin" has been deeply rooted in people's hearts these days, and the true and false stories of Li Kui can be said to be known to everyone. Ma Xianglin's words obviously refer to Xu Renjie as the villain Li Gui, which is quite mocking.

    Xu Renjie was not annoyed. He might not be good at other people, but his level of talking and arguing was always as good as others, so he laughed at the top of his lungs and said: "Li Kui's nickname is Black Tornado. Naturally, he is black. The ones on both sides of us are  Which side of the gun is black? That side is Li Kui!"

    The Tujia people are soldiers with white poles, and the Zhu army are soldiers with black poles. Of course, Zhu Jun has the upper hand over black soldiers.  This is in line with the joy of a "black whirlwind", and it really means turning the white soldiers into Li Gui.

    Ma Xianglin on the ridge was stunned. After thinking for a long time, he didn't think of anything to say to counterattack.  He is a fierce general. Since ancient times, fierce generals have not been easy to use their mouths, not to mention that the Tujia people are the same as most ethnic minorities.  He is relatively direct in doing things, honest and honest, and has little inner twists. He does not have the ability to seize on others' words and scold them.  If he could beat twenty Xu Renjies in a fist fight, then twenty Ma Xianglin combined could not scold one Xu Renjie in a verbal scolding.

    He blushed at the top of the ridge.  After picking at my head for a long time, I didn't know what to say. I was so angry that I jumped on my feet.  After holding it in for a long time, he finally said: "You are the one who is lying. Our white-gun soldiers are famous all over the world. How could it be Li Gui He just likes white gun-rods."

    Xu Renjie was furious when he saw him.  Then he laughed and said: "That's true. When Li Gui was written about in "Water Margin", he was also said to have thin skin and white flesh, hahahaha."

    "That's nonsense!" Ma Xianglin jumped with anger.

    Xu Renjie changed his tone and stopped talking about this issue.  Instead, he asked seriously: "Li Gui, how did you know we were going to take the Yinping Ancient Road?"

    Ma Xianglin angrily said: "There are dozens of my Tujia people living in the villages nearby. My Tujia people know the terrain here very well. Mother knew that you might pass through Qingchuan County according to the "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", so she ordered me  I have been stationed here for a long time, waiting for you to fall into the trap." After he said this, he remembered that Xu Renjie used the word Li Gui when he called him, and his answer was equivalent to admitting that he was Li Gui.  Suddenly, I felt annoyed and furious.

    Xu Renjie was shocked after hearing what he said. It turned out that Qin Liangyu had already guessed that they might be coming here. He was worthy of being a world-famous general, and his strategic vision was not trivial.

    At this time, Ma Xianglin on the top of the ridge continued: "The Manchu Tatars like to use "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" as a reference for their military books. Our white-armed soldiers have fought bloody battles with the Tatars many times, and the bad moves used in "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" like this  , please don¡¯t use it on us.¡±

    Xu Renjie rolled his eyes and felt depressed. Those savages from the Manchu Qing Dynasty, you actually read "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" as a military book? That's so stupid, right? It's so bad that even if I borrowed "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" once in a while, I would be found out. Damn it.  Tatars are really harmful.

    He looked up at Motian Ridge and saw that the mountain was extremely steep. It was indeed a strategic location that Zhuge Wuhou paid attention to back then. The mountain was only slightly less dangerous than Jianmen Pass. Guarding the mountain was the world-famous Bai Bai.  Soldiers, if you want to attack by force, it will be more difficult than dreaming.

    While he was rummaging around, Wang Er and Ying Shanhong, the couple next to him, came over and whispered: "Brother Generalissimo, I'm afraid this mountain will be difficult to climb, but do you have any clever ideas?"

    Xu Renjie spread his hands: "There is nothing we can do!"

    Wang Er waved the iron rod on his hand: "Then I'll give it a try."

    "Don't!" Xu Renjie quickly grabbed him: "No matter how great your martial arts skills are, even if dozens of rocks are thrown down from the mountain, you won't survive. Don't lose your life in vain here Let me think about it, since Li Yan is right.  The Qiang people, I can also persuade the Tujia people to try corn or something, just in case they??just let us go.  "

    Wang Er saw that the Motian Ridge was really steep and did not want to attack it forcefully, so he nodded and said hello.

    Xu Renjie cleared his throat and roared up the mountain again: "General Ma, in fact, I admire General Qin very much. I have long admired General Qin's deeds against the Tatars. I feel that our two armies should not fight.  , we should sit down and have a good talk maybe we can become friends."

    Ma Xianglin snorted and said, "The thief and I have nothing to talk about."

    Xu Renjie said: "Don't be so insistent. Why don't we talk? Our army has a magical crop that can grow a lot of food on barren land. I heard that Shizhu, the hometown of the Tujia people, is also a very poor place.  , Tujia people often don¡¯t have enough to eat, why don¡¯t we sit down and discuss it, I will hand over new crops to you, and you will withdraw your troops and not go against us, what do you think?¡±

    Then Xu Renjie talked about the benefits of corn in earnest. He was a well-educated and educated person. He spoke clearly and logically. It only took a very short time to explain the benefits of corn.  Got it crystal clear.  I thought that the Tujia people would be a little interested, but I didn't expect that Ma Xianglin didn't even want to hear it.  He had a sullen face and didn't answer.

    However, a small school official behind him shouted loudly: "Thieves, don't use sweet words! You evil thieves killed General Ma's wife Ma Fengyi, and now you actually have the nerve to be friends with us The Tujia people and you evil people  We swear not to be independent." (Note: Ma Fengyi, also known as Zhang Fengyi, led a white-pole soldier to participate in the suppression of bandits. In the sixth year of Chongzhen, he was killed by the Thirty-sixth Battalion. See chapter 337 of this book for records.

    Xu Renjie vaguely seemed to have heard about this incident, and was shocked.  He quickly explained: "That was not done by us, but by the thieves of the Thirty-sixth Battalion. Our Zhu Army and the Thirty-sixth Battalion are not the same. We had a war not long ago, and we defeated the Thirty-sixth Battalion."  Driven out of Sichuan."

    He started to explain the difference between Zhu Jun and the 36th Battalion again. He talked for a long time and his mouth was dry.  Unfortunately, Ma Xianglin remained unmoved, shaking his head and saying: "The war between you and the Thirty-Sixth Battalion is nothing more than a dog-eating-dog fight. You are a bunch of thieves in every sense of the word Now that the Liaodong Tatars have invaded, all the people of our Ming Dynasty will  People. No matter what nationality, we should unite as one to fight against the Tartars, but the country spends a lot of manpower and material resources to deal with you bandits. You are the residents of the Ming Dynasty, so hurry up and go to the underworld."

    Negotiations have come to this point.  It can be said that Xu Renjie almost heard it. Ma Xianglin hated the bandits deeply and would never compromise as easily as the Qiang people.  Li Yan's strategy of luring the Qiang people to grab corn may not work on the Tujia people, because the Qiang soldiers did not shoulder the heavy responsibility of defending Jianmenguan, but were stationed on the mountain next to Jianmenguan.  Only then could he run around to grab food, thus falling into Li Yan's trap.  But now that the white soldiers are guarding Motian Ridge, they will obviously not come down easily. Even if they come down, Xu Renjie will not be able to create a corn-growing village for Ma Xianglin

    This is Qingchuan County, a place where Zhu Jun¡¯s power has not yet been able to extend. It is completely different from the situation in Jianmenguan.

    Xu Renjie was worried!

    As a result, the black-pole soldiers did not dare to attack the mountain, and the white-pole soldiers did not come down from the mountain. They stayed on the ridge. The two armies were in a stalemate for most of the day. Until night, when the Zhu army set up camp, Xu Renjie still could not think of a way. During this period, he fought countless  I tried to persuade Ma Xianglin several times, but to no avail.

    That night, torches were lit everywhere in the camp to prevent the white-armed soldiers from coming down from the mountain to steal the camp. The white-armed soldiers on the mountain also illuminated the entire Motian Ridge in the light of fire to prevent Zhu Jun from touching the mountain Xu Renjie's subordinates  Zhu Jun is well-trained, and the white-armed soldiers are also experienced in many battles. It is almost impossible to use underhanded tactics and use bad medicine. To deal with such an experienced enemy, in addition to fighting for strength, don't try to use tricks.  It just so happens that they have the advantageous location, so if they want to compete head-on, they have no chance.

    That night Xu Renjie stayed up all night, and his hair almost turned gray. At dawn, he walked to the front of the camp with a pair of dark circles under his eyes. He looked up at the top of the mountain and saw that the soldiers with white poles on the top of the mountain were still in neat military appearance, without any flaws.

    "What can we do?" Xu Renjie couldn't help but said to himself.

    Wang Er walked up next to him and said in a low voice: "I think it's better to force the charge and let me take the lead."

    Xu Renjie was about to agree when he suddenly looked over Wang Er's shoulder and landed on a torch behind him that had just been blown out. The top of the torch was burnt black and smoke was rising slowly.

    Xu Renjie suddenly smacked his head, thinking about it, and said happily: "I have a way to get Ma Xianglin down from the mountain and beat him."

    When Wang Er saw him beaming with joy, he couldn't help but wonder: "What's your clever plan?"

    Xu Renjie smiled and said: "Didn't we encounter many Tujia villages along the way? Ma Xianglin himself said that there are many Tujia villages nearby. Let's set fire to these villages. I don't believe Ma Xianglin can't come down.  .¡±

    When Wang Er heard this, he suddenly started to sweat profusely: ¡°Isn¡¯t this inappropriate?, Our Zhu Army has never disturbed the people. If you use the Tujia people to threaten the other side's army, not to mention Zhu Bage will not spare you if he finds out, I will beat you to death with a fist as big as a bowl.  "

    Xu Renjie pursed his lips: "Second brother, how many years have you known me? Am I the kind of person who doesn't take people's lives seriously? We are not really burning, just pretending.  Just make Ma Xianglin mistakenly think that we are going to burn the village, as long as you force him to go down to Motian Ridge, then we will see if you can beat him."

    Wang Er suddenly realized and said happily: "Okay, let's do it then!"

    An hour later, Zhu Jun began to break camp and the soldiers began to lay out their things.  Roll up the tent, tie it with rope and carry it on your back.  He made a show of wanting to evacuate from here.  Ma Xianglin, who was on the mountain, heard the sentry report and hurried to the edge of the cliff to take a look. Sure enough, Zhu Jun's 2,000 men had already begun to move back. The black-pole soldiers in front did not move in a hurry and stared at the white-pole soldiers on the mountain.  Be prepared for them to suddenly rush down from the mountain and attack Zhu Jun's tail.

    Ma Xianglin couldn't help but think to himself: This band of bandits is really different from ordinary bandits when they withdraw.  A powerful army will also be specially arranged to take the rear, unlike other bandits who retreat in a rush without any rules at all.

    Although he thought so, he couldn't help but want to mock the thief, so he raised his voice and laughed loudly at Zhu Jun at the foot of the mountain: "Hahaha, you ran away with your tail between your legs? You don't dare to attack us.  Motian Ridge? You also said you wanted to split up with me as a Li Kui Li ghost, but you ended up running away. What does that mean?"

    I saw only the rear of the bandit formation.  Xu Renjie walked out with a smile, holding a fan in his hand. He shook the fan annoyingly and said with a smile: "General Ma, I talked to you sincerely all day long, but you remained unmoved.  . If you insist on saying that we are heinous thieves, today I will do what the thieves like to do the most"

    Seeing that he was smiling strangely, with an expression on his face that showed no good intentions, Ma Xianglin was startled for no reason, and a bad premonition arose from the bottom of his heart.  Asked: "What bad thing are you going to do?"

    Xu Renjie said: "You Tujia people ruined our major event of entering Sichuan, and I am very unhappy now. I have to massacre Tujia civilians in several villages to vent their anger, and then burn those villages to the ground Hahaha! Of course, they look so good.  I won¡¯t kill a pretty Tujia girl, so it would be nice to use her as a concubine to fill a house. Tsk tsk!¡±

    When he said these words, he was still waving the fan in his hand. If he had a birdcage in his hand, he would really look like a typical evil second generation ancestor, which is indescribably annoying.  Weird, when he talked about the last Tujia girl, he actually had a lustful smile on his face, which made people want to punch him in the face.

    Wang Er next to him couldn't help but shook his head, thinking: If I didn't know he was acting, even I couldn't help but beat him. This guy's playful smile is really disgusting.

    Even Wang Er, an insider, was disgusted. You can imagine Ma Xianglin on the mountain.  He was so angry that he jumped up and yelled: "How dare you!"

    Xu Renjie smiled and said: "I am a thief. I even dare to rebel, so what else can I not dare to do?"

    Ma Xianglin said angrily: "My Tujia people are not so easy to catch. When they see your army from a distance, they will naturally hide in caves. Don't think you can hurt them."

    Xu Renjie laughed again: "To deal with the passing troops, hiding in the mountains may be effective. But if you encounter me who is bent on catching them, hiding anywhere will be useless. I have eight thousand soldiers here, and I can't just surround them on a few hills.  After the siege was completed, I searched cave after cave. All the Tujia girls I found were tied up, stripped naked, and arranged in eighteen different ways. I took those girls back to the tent to play with if they looked prettier.  Do something that only men and women can do, hahahaha"

    Wang Er next to him couldn't help but cover his ears. If he continued to listen, he would really hit someone with his fists.

    Ma Xianglin was furious.

    Several lieutenants behind him quickly grabbed him and shouted: "General, don't fall into the trap. This is the thieves' method of provoking generals. They want to trick us down the mountain and make us lose our advantage."

    Ma Xianglin said angrily: "Of course I know this is a way to provoke the generals, butthere are indeed many villages of our own clan nearby. Usually when the bandit army passes through the border, it will be fine if they hide in the mountains, but if the thieves really want to surround the mountain  If we catch them, they will definitely have no way to escape, and this is not a lie."

    Several lieutenants were silent. They all knew that what Xu Renjie said was true. If an army was determined to capture a village of people hiding in the mountains, it would not be too simple. They would surround the mountain and search for them in caves.  Don't even think about slipping through the net.  It's just that most armies don't have the time to do such nonsense. Regular armies march and fight with a certain purpose, but bandits have no such purpose. It's entirely possible for them to go to the mountains to capture people for fun.  .

    Several lieutenants hugged Ma Xianglin and said: "General, if the Tujia brothers in those villages are killed because of this, we can only blame him.Our fate is not good we can't bear to mess up the big plan.  "

    "Fart! All of them fart." Ma Xianglin sneered and raised his white-barrel gun. His white-barrel gun was slightly different from that of ordinary white-barrel soldiers. The barrel was decorated with silver ornaments, making it look more noble and gorgeous.  He held the symbolic gun high and said loudly: "I, Ma Xianglin, fought bloody battles among tens of thousands of Tatars in the Hun River, fighting left and right, as if they were in an uninhabited land. Although I was hit by the Tatars,  Liu Ya was blinded in one left eye, but he still killed thousands of troops and defeated the enemy as before At this time, there are thousands of thieves in the area, how do they compare to the Tatars? If there is no favorable geographical location, can I not defeat them? "

    Ma Xianglin loudly ordered: "Pass my order, the white pole soldiers are ready to go down the mountain and defeat the rebel army. They are not allowed to harass my Tujia village. No one comes to persuade me. Anyone who tries to persuade me will be killed!"

    When the several lieutenants heard this, they immediately stood in awe and saluted Ma Xianglin together: "General, you are so powerful, we are not as good as you. How dare you disobey your orders!"

    The soldiers with white poles on the top of the mountain shouted in unison and began to go down the mountain.  (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to Qidian to vote for recommendations and monthly votes.
