Chapter 3: Morning Dew Sixth In the middle of the night, the scouts finally sent back the news from across the river.
Zhang Jin said that he had led a large group of men to kill Ping'en, and the seven masters of the cuckoo seemed to be aware of it, closed the four gates in advance, and evacuated everyone's families and people into the city.
"How many people will be dispatched" Duan Qing was so anxious that he rushed to the side of Ling Yunqing, the leader of the sentry probe, and asked.
"Big, about 35,000 people.
All, all are sharps.
Ling Yunqing gasped and responded.
How can such a simple answer satisfy the anxious people.
Without waiting for Cheng Mingzhen to speak, the quick-tempered Duan Qing grabbed Ling Yunqing's neck and scolded loudly: "How can he be crazy."
As for the others, didn't you go to the twenties?"
"No, no, I didn't come back" Ling Yunqing shook and added weakly.
I didn't rest for two days in a row, and I swam back and forth in the Lishui River.
He looked like he was about to fall apart, and if he wasn't careful, he would fall into a pile of bones.
"Yes, I was discovered, I had to run first" "Bring him a bowl of broth, put more salt in it" Without waiting for Duan Qing to continue asking, Cheng Mingzhen rushed forward in time and ordered outside.
Duan Qing also sensed that Ling Yunqing's face was wrong at this moment, and hurriedly stepped forward to stop the other party and hugged him, "What are you doing in a daze, move a Hu bed" He stared at his eyes and shouted, full of anger spurting out of his eyes.
The soldiers hurriedly came to a Hu bed, found a few thick sheepskins to spread out, and carried Ling Yunqing to it.
The sentinel team was Ling Yunqing gasping for a moment, struggling to stand up, "Yes, I'm sorry." subordinates, subordinates are incompetent" "You've done your best" Cheng Mingzhen smiled and pressed his shoulder, signaling that he didn't have to get up, "Lie down and say, the broth will be fine immediately." ” "Genus, my subordinates were mixed up outside the city of Lishui and caught a few live mouths and asked."
Ling Yunqing smiled, as if he was aroused by the broth, and saliva slowly trickled from the corners of his mouth.
He himself was not aware of it at all, and while gasping, he continued to report, "The number should be accurate.
The subordinates scattered them and asked questions, and the answers were the same."
This is the basic skill that the scouts taught to them during the training, Cheng Mingzhen according to the requirements of the soldiers of the Great Sui Mansion for the scouts.
So Ling Yunqing reported, and his tired face faintly showed a little smugness, "The departure time is big, probably today, Zhang Jin said that he personally led the team."
Hao Wuye and Sun Liuye were ordered to receive Qingzhang, and they didn't go all the way with the big boss."
As he spoke, more saliva trickled down the corners of his mouth, with strands of red blood in between.
The generals were in pain and anxious, wanting to let Ling Yunqing rest for a while before continuing to report the details, but they were afraid that as soon as he stopped, he would no longer be able to support it.
I had to hold back the grief and indignation in my heart, and silently gathered around Hu's bed to listen to him continue to tell the news of exchanging his life for his life.
"Shou, it's Zhang Biao who guards the water city.
The number is probably between 3,000 and 5,000.
It seems that he has learned the news that we have returned, and he is very careful.
The brothers had barely succeeded in half a pillar of incense before he discovered it.
Chase from outside the city all the way to the river.
The subordinates were incompetent, so they had to leave the brothers alone and swim back first, and the rest of the brothers " The rest of the brothers are estimated to not come back nine times out of ten.
The rule of scouting is that it is better to lose your companions than to return the information that the Lord needs in time.
Ling Yunqing learned this very well.
Looking at everyone's admiring looks, he smiled smugly again, but accidentally revealed a mouth full of scarlet.
The guards brought the broth, Cheng Mingzhen took it with his own hands, and slowly held it to Hu's bedside, "You rest first and drink the soup."
Take a sip of soup before talking. ” "Sect head" Ling Yunqing turned his head sideways and looked at Cheng Mingzhen's eyes, "You say, I, did I do the right thing?"
"You did a good job, very good" Unable to refuse the expectation in the other party's eyes, Cheng Mingzhen nodded and replied with a forced smile.
When Ling Yunqing heard the praise, he immediately became as happy as a child, "The military rations that Zhang Jin said may be stored in Qujiazhuang near the river.
This, this news has not been verified, and the subordinates don't know if it is allowed or not, if the head of the sect is possible, they will go and set it on fire."
"I'll take someone to burn it tonight, brother, don't worry, not a single grain of rice will be left for the surname Zhang" Duan Qing wiped his nose and assured with red eyes.
"Brother, you can have a bowl of soup first.
The head of the sect will hold it for you."
Ling Yunqing no longer had the strength to shake his head, but he expressed his refusal with his eyes, "I, I, I" More blood and more water flowed from the corners of his mouth, moistening the sheepskin red, "I" tried his last strength, he grabbed Duan Qing's hand, "I, my wife is pregnant, and she will give me a son this year" "Brother, don't worry, your son is my son" Duan Qing regretted that his intestines were blue, and he couldn't wait to swear to the sky.
He hated himself for being so stupid, he didn't see that Ling Yunqing was so tired that he ran out of oil.
He regretted that he hadn't hugged the other party earlier and let the other party rest a little longer.

Rest for a while, maybe the other party won't be exhausted to death.
"Sect Head" Ling Yunqing turned his gaze to Cheng Mingzhen, as if expecting a certain promise.
He didn't seem to believe anyone except Cheng Mingzhen, his eyes were direct, loose and eager.
Cheng Mingzhen was burned by this gaze, leaned over, and promised in a low voice, "Zhang Jin said that he will definitely not be able to enter Ping'en City, don't worry, your" Before he could finish speaking, Ling Yunqing's head was already tilted to the side.
Uncontrollable blood flowed down the corners of his mouth, but his expression was faint, as if all his wishes had been fulfilled.
Zhang Jin said: "There was an angry roar in the Chinese military tent.
On the one hand, it is because of the pain of losing its companions, and on the other hand, it is angry at the madness that Zhang Jincheng said. led more than 35,000 sharp soldiers to attack Pingen, where his own people were stationed, and nearly 5,000 sharp soldiers remained in the water.
That is to say, in order to deal with the Jinzi Battalion, he moved out all the combatable soldiers of Juluze.
The people left for the second master, Xue Song, to guard the old nest are all old and weak women and children.
As long as the government gets the news and makes a little arrangement, it can completely dig the foundation of Juluze.
"How to fight" When the roar subsided slightly, Duan Qing asked Cheng Mingzhen with red eyes.
"Sect leader, how do you say how to fight, let's fight with him" Wang Fei also hated his eyes and asked with a little crying.
The expressions on the faces of the generals at this moment were similar to those of the two, and they were all sad and inexplicable.
If there was still a trace of awe in Zhang Jincheng in everyone's hearts before this, at this moment, all the former friendships have been replaced by hatred.
Most of the people's families are located in Ping'en County, and in case the city is broken, it is impossible not to be harmed.
And the hurt inflicted on them is the old robe, and there is no reason but jealousy Cheng Mingzhen summed up the information of the scouts in exchange for their lives in his heart, held the table with his hand, and was silent.
To be honest, there was too little intelligence and too much messiness to devise a well-thought-out strategy to defeat the enemy.
But there was only so much he could get, and there were only a few hours left to prepare.
After the scouts were discovered, Zhang Jin said that he would definitely get the news that the Jinzi Battalion Ruishi had rushed back early tomorrow morning.
As Zhang Jin is called, he is definitely not willing to fight the Jinzi battalion head-on, but desperately storms Ping'en, trying to catch Du Juan and everyone's family members to force everyone to be captured.
"Leader, let's fight the old thief."
"Yes, even if you die, let the old thief go with you to see Lord Hades."
Seeing that Cheng Mingzhen never spoke, everyone felt more and more desperate.
Zhang Jin said that he likes to eat raw and alive, and people and livers.
Before Cheng Mingzhen submerged in Juluze, every time Zhang Jiajun broke a city, he would hardly leave any living creatures.
No one can tolerate their wives and children being killed in front of their eyes, they would rather fall first than keep the last dignity of men.
Just when the atmosphere was so depressed that it was almost bursting, Cheng Mingzhen finally spoke.
"Let's cross the river tonight," he said slowly but firmly, glancing at the group.
"Wang Fei, you take five hundred people to touch Qujiazhuang.
Duan Qing, you take 2,000 people and block Zhang Biao in the city of Zhushui for me."
"Nuo" didn't care whether such a person could complete the task or not, Wang Fei and Han Gesheng strode forward and reached out to take the arrow.
"What about you, sect leader, there are only fifteen hundred people left around you" Han Gesheng was relatively old, frowned, and reminded in a low voice.
"Everyone, listen to my arrangement.
Four thousand people, forty thousand people are enough to deal with Zhang Da's family" Cheng Mingzhen nodded, his smile full of confidence.
"Zhang Biao got the news that we have been killed, and he must send someone to inform Zhang Da first.
He and Zhang Hu were busy competing for the position of young master, and they were afraid that they would be caught by the other party if something went wrong, so no one dared to make decisions on their own. ” "The last general will go to order troops" Hearing Cheng Mingzhen's analysis, Wang Fei's confidence increased greatly, and he raised his legs and walked out of the tent.
"Wait" Cheng Mingzhen immediately shouted to stop him, and then whispered, "It's a pity that the grain is burned, you don't need to really attack Qujiazhuang, you just need to" After telling Wang Fei, he turned his head to Duan Qing again, "Zhang Biao is afraid of taking responsibility, so he definitely won't dare to go out of the city to fight with you."
You don't have to go all out to siege the city, you just need to be outside the city."
Duan Qing's eyes flashed on the ground, like a lantern lit in the dark night.
"The last general understands that the head of the sect can rest assured.
I have always been in charge of the water city, and the terrain is definitely more familiar than the surname Zhang. ” "You can only bring the infantry, and the cavalry is all left to me" Cheng Mingzhen emphasized again, and then waved his hand to order Duan Qing and Wang Fei to set off.
Before the two of them could walk out of the tent, he pulled out a third arrow and commanded in a low voice, "Geng Laosi, you are in charge of the remaining scouts for Team Ling."
Carrying a horn, arrange a group of people every two miles, from Qujiazhuang to me to the city of Ping'en.
Listen to my orders and tell everyone, don't lose face as a leader."
"Nuo" was so excited that the guy who was called Geng Lao Si was bloody, stepped forward, and responded loudly.

"Xiao Qiang, you take five hundred foot soldiers, next to the official road five miles north of Qujiazhuang, waiting for my general order.
After hearing the horn."
The general who was called Xiao Qiang also strode forward, took the general's order, and trotted out of the Chinese military tent.
After calculation, there are only about 1,000 soldiers left around Cheng Mingzhen.
But he was still too much, nodded and called Han Gesheng, and ordered in a low voice, "I'll give you another five hundred people, set off tonight, and go around between Ping'en and Qingzhang."
Hold the five and six masters in tow for me, and don't let them come back no matter what happens under Ping'en City.
The specific method is the same as a few of them, the crops in the field have just been harvested."
Han Gesheng smiled honestly and took the order with great confidence.
It's all arranged.
Cheng Mingzhen glanced at the half-empty Chinese military tent and shook his head with a smile.
I have been avoiding this day, but this day still came.
Since he was powerless to retreat, he had no choice but to step forward.
No matter what is written in that dark fate:
