"These rebels are quite resilient, like indestructible cockroaches!"
Zhao Muyun was secretly stunned when he saw that the rebels were not scared by their bloody tactics, but were staring at the fat piece of meat, Chenjiazhuang, as if they would not give up until they got it.
"Brother Zhao, what should we do?"
The rebels split up and Zhao Muyun did not have enough manpower, so Wang Tiezhu asked hurriedly.
Zhao Muyun knocked down a rebel with one punch and said coldly without even turning his head, "Don't worry, if Dewey's men don't come by now, then Yanzhou can forget about this credit!"
"Zhu Zi, go get Li Si to force Li Runjin out. I don't believe these rebels dare to act rashly."
Calculating the time, an hour has passed.
It is only thirty-four miles from here to Luotuo Weir. Dewey and his men should be able to reach it even if they climb.
If Dewey had arrived after Zhao Muyun had taken out Li Runjin to make the rebels afraid to act rashly, the situation would have been different.
He is not here to provide timely help, nor to add icing on the cake, but to pick peaches.
Just as Wang Tiezhu turned around and was about to enter the village, smoke and dust rose not far to the west, and footsteps rumbled!
A large black flag fluttered in the wind, and then armored Dayin soldiers appeared behind the rebels.
"Damn it! I fell into a trap!"
Zhang Hong finally realized that the cavalrymen who had just killed more than a hundred of them must be from the Dayin army.
Adopting such a tactic of attrition is not only to harvest heads, but also to delay time and catch them all in one fell swoop.
"Brother, let's run!"
"It's too late to run away." Zhang Hong's face was pale at this time.
It was all his fault for coveting Chenjiazhuang's population resources. It turned out that people had deliberately dug a pit for him to jump into!
Now we are trapped, with fierce men blocking the way in front and government troops surrounding us from behind. It is probably too late to run away.
"Then...what should we do?" the subordinate asked in panic.
"Let them continue attacking, we will retreat first." Zhang Hong's eyes turned.
What!
Isn't this just betraying your men and running away for your own life?
The subordinates immediately felt contempt for Zhang Hong.
No wonder Zhang Hong was not taken seriously by Li Jingang. It turned out that his character was so bad that few people were willing to follow him.
After Zhang Hong finished speaking, he ran away without looking back.
Several men looked at each other and hurried to follow.
"General Zhang ran away?"
The other rebels were divided into two groups, one rushed towards the villages and towns, and the other was being harvested by Zhao Muyun and others.
When the Dayin troops rushed out from behind not far away, they were already panicked and helpless, and hurriedly looked towards Zhang Hong.
However, they found that Zhang Hong turned his horse around and ran south with a few followers.
For a moment, they no longer had the will to fight, dropped their weapons and fled.
The rebels, like a pile of loose sand, collapsed immediately after their leader fled.
"Zhu Zi, take a few men with you and capture the escaped rebel leader alive!"
"no problem!"
Wang Tiezhu mounted his horse and took two of his men with him and shot away like an arrow.
now.
Outside Chenjiazhuang, there were scattered rebels.
Dayin's troops also arrived quickly and surrounded them from behind.
Seeing that the enemy was neatly dressed, with bright armor and shining swords, the rebels knelt down in surrender, shouting that they were forced by the bandits.
Soon, the arriving Dayin troops captured all the rebels. Except for Zhang Hong and his cronies, few escaped.
Village Chief Chen also breathed a sigh of relief at this time.
It turned out that the officers and soldiers who had helped them fight off the rebels and defend the village were also from Dayin.
No wonder it looks so majestic?
Thinking about it, he just stopped someone from entering the village and questioned who the other person was. Now it seems that he has offended him.
When he thought of this, cold sweat broke out on Chen He's forehead.
I wonder if the general who asked him to feed the horses just now was showing some goodwill?
Chen He felt uneasy.
At this time, a middle-aged general from the Dayin army rode his horse straight towards Zhao Muyun.
The bodies of the rebels who died tragically along the way made the middle-aged general secretly frightened.
He never expected that this newly promoted captain who was going to Yinzhou from Guannei Road was indeed a capable man.
With just over a dozen cavalry horses, they killed more than a hundred rebels.
"You must be Captain Zhao from Yinzhou! I've heard so much about you!"
He came to Zhao Muyun with his guards and asked with a bow.
"Could it be that you are Commander Du of Yanzhou? I'm so sorry, so sorry!"
Zhao Muyun and the visitor chatted and looked at each other.
"Hearing about someone is worse than meeting them in person. Captain Zhao is truly young and promising. He came to Yanzhou without even saying hello, and just came here quietly. I must have been neglectful!"
As an old official, Dewey was surprised that Zhao Muyun became a captain at such a young age and was so brave that he defeated the rebels with only a dozen cavalrymen. However, he still had a sense of arrogance in his bones, and his tone was full of questioning.
After all, a prefectural commander should stay in his own territory and cannot leave without permission.
However, Zhao Muyun suddenly appeared in Yanzhou, which was definitely against the court rules.
Zhao Muyun understood what he meant. He didn't expect that this person not only did not thank him for the generous gift he presented to Yanzhou, but blamed him instead.
However, it is normal for outstanding people to be envied.
For Zhao Muyun, the position of captain may just be a starting point; but for someone of Dewey's age, it has already turned his life upside down.
