Zhang Village Master, does it have a roster?Chen Qichao asked suddenly, which made Zhang Shiji stunned.
Roster, what do you want to do?Zhang Shiji asked back in a daze.
I called someone to the roster and sent a weapon, how fast!This is also the rule of our Dameiling.Chen Qichao said lightly.
What rules are you? You are not afraid that we will take more weapons!
Zhang Shiji complained in dissatisfaction.
But the temptation brought by those more than a dozen vehicles of weapons was something he could not resist!
He asked his men to report the list and then summarize it. After more than an hour of busyness, he finally completed a roster.
Originally, the household registration statistics of several remote mountain villages such as Lutouzhai were unpredictable. In addition, since the end of the world, many of the information stored in the computers could not be viewed due to the collapse of the Internet.
In addition, Zhang Shiji was not in the mood to do civil affairs, so he spent a lot of time just counting the number of people.
Brothers, why do you go to Lutou Village?Chen Qichao was not in a hurry to hold the roster, but shouted loudly to the team.
After a while of silence, someone finally said softly: It’s not because there is no way out!
What if I lead a way for everyone?Chen Qichao suddenly used his internal force to transmit the voice to a distance, allowing hundreds of people present to hear it clearly.
Zhang Shiji began to suspicion about Chen Qichao's words. In addition to some of his subordinates, a considerable number of people who were forced to defect to the end of the world. Those people belonged to the exploited people. He was a little moved when he heard Chen Qichao's confusing statement. Zhang Shiji repeatedly winked and coughed, but Chen Qichao regarded it as a wind in his ears.
Chen Qichao saw black smoke rising from Lutou Village behind him, and knew that his subordinates had succeeded, so he turned Lutou Village into a sea of fire. He immediately shouted: In order to give everyone a way out, your village leader has decided to join my Dameiling and fight against the zombies together. In order to show his determination, he has sent someone to burn Lutou Village!
As soon as the words were finished, everyone turned their heads and looked back. They found that the smoke was rolling in Lutou Village, and the sea of fire was about to turn into ruins. They immediately believed Chen Qichao's words, thinking that Zhang Shiji was really ruining his family.
Zhang Shiji was both annoyed and hated. Of course, he understood that it was Chen Qichao's actions. He was about to order his subordinates to come up and tie Chen Qichao up, but suddenly he felt that there was something hard on his back, and a voice sounded in his ears: Master Zhang, don't act rashly, otherwise my guy will not recognize anyone.
It was Ma Dongxian who came with Chen Qichao, and his voice continued to ring in Zhang Shiji's ears: Master Zhang, there is another thing to tell you, your wife, children, are in our hands now, you can do it.
Zhang Shiji looked back and found that Chen Qichao brought less people. Cao Yun, who was matched with a sword and arrogant temperament, was gone. His throat couldn't help but feel bitter, but he couldn't speak.
I have already negotiated with the leader of Zhang. All the people from Lutou Village moved to Damaile. Master Zhang, let me say a few words.Chen Qichao turned his head and said, but the smile on his face made Zhang Shiji shudder.
Zhang Shiji swallowed his throat with difficulty, and finally shouted helplessly: My Lutou Village will join the leader of Chen, and all of them will be moved to Dameiling.
As soon as Zhang Shiji said that, his dozen or so of his confidants who felt wrong had already surrendered when they saw that the leader of the village had already surrendered. Look at me, I look at you, and I don’t dare to attack, so they had to endure it.
Soon, Monk Zhen and Wei Yunlong took their men down the mountain and met with Chen Qichao. They were wrapped in Zhang Shiji's family, hundreds of Lutou Village, and dozens of trucks of food and food supplies, and came to Dameiling.
Wang Zhenwu, Miao Lang, Ma Jiao and others came with three hundred elite troops. Seeing that the situation was settled, they slowly retreated to Dameiling.
Majiazhuang and Lutouzhai successively surrendered to Dameiling, making Chen Qichao's name even more prosperous and faintly became the most powerful force within a radius of 100 miles!
********************
In more than March, the Jianghuai region ushered in its first initial rain.
As the saying goes, spring rain is as expensive as oil. Unfortunately, in this zombie-ridden apocalypse, normal agricultural production has been destroyed. Except for a few areas, most places are dead and there is no hope.
For Dai Shantian, his mood was also extremely bad.
He had just patrolled outside and found that the situation in the entire camp was very bad. Most of the places were soaked in mud, and the people of each camp were suffering. Moreover, as the rain continued and the food was about to end, the situation would continue to worsen.
Dai Shantian had just returned to the tent, and an old servant who had been following him for many years brought two steamed cakes and a pot of bad wine.
Drinking the stuffy wine alone, Dai Shantian felt more and more frustrated as he drank.
Speaking of which, Dai Shantian was originally a real estate developer on the surface, but secretly he was a gangster.
When the end of the world came, he also wanted to become king and dominate. So in the early days of the end of the world, he mobilized all his connections and sold his property. With his original younger brother, he recruited more than a thousand young and strong men to form a militia.
Later, Dai Shantian encountered a mysterious sect. Seeing that the other party was powerful, he directly turned to the other party with tactfulness.
The sect praised Dai Shantian's sensibility, and most of his subordinates were outlaws, who were brave in fighting when they encountered corpse tides and were willing to use their lives. So he allocated a batch of gun military funds to Dai Shantian, and even handed over thousands of people from some survivors found from other places to Commander Dai Shantian.
Of course, the sect also sent an elder Zhang Zhiyuan as the military supervisor.
Dai Shantian was full of energy and was ready to make achievements in this chaotic world and show his strength.
But the good times did not last long. The sect that was originally full of energy and swore to control the world, but in the battle with the Corpse King, the man who was unfathomable and respected as the Ghost King fell.
As soon as he died, the remaining troops of the sect began to split. First, the ghost king's direct troops withdrew their troops without authorization, avoiding the S City New District, where the corpse group was the most prosperous, and disappeared.
Dai Shantian immediately smelled something wrong, knew that things were no longer possible, and despite Zhang Zhiyuan's opposition, he also withdrew from the battlefield with his troops.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he entered the southwest area, he was ambushed.
Thousands of unprepared men were beaten to pieces by hundreds of Meiling Army. The weapons and supplies that had finally accumulated were lost. It was only after returning to Qingshan Town, Laowo, to stabilize their position.
However, this Meiling army chased after him and continued to chase him to the foot of the mountain. They set up camp and surrounded him.
Dai Shantian was angry for a moment and was about to lead his reorganized subordinates to go down the mountain to fight a good battle with his opponent. Who knew that God was not going well and it started to rain.
Facing the Meiling Army who was trapped in the camp and was ready for battle, Dai Shantian hesitated for a while, but finally he was unwilling to waste his subordinates' lives in the unnecessary battle.
Dai Shantian has also heard of the name of Meiling Army at the foot of the mountain. Meiling Army and Chen Qichao were all influential figures during this period.
There are also many ambitious people like Dai Shantian in the end of the world. Some elites who usually control power or armed forces will transform into leaders or controllers of the survivor team in the end of the world.
However, Chen Qichao was busy clearing the inside and did not step on Dai Shantian's territory, so he did not have any conflicts with him.
Now he is directly pressed to the other party's door, which is a bit intolerable.
Dai Shantian put the wine glass heavily on the table, feeling very angry.
It was not that he didn't want to fight the Meiling army to the death, but he knew in his heart that his subordinates had already lost their morale after the battle of S City New District and the ambush in the country, and had long lost their fighting spirit. On the other hand, the soldiers and horses of Dameiling were at their peak.
If I defeated them again, the morale of the army that I finally gathered together might be completely dispersed.
Dai Shantian dared not bet on Ah. In this end of the world, only by having soldiers and food can you ensure your safety, otherwise you will live a worse life than a pig or dog!
Just as Dai Shantian was thinking about these things in a suffocating manner, a quarrel sounded outside the tent, and the noisy sound made Dai Shantian even more upset and couldn't help but shout: What's going on!
The bodyguard outside the tent immediately came in to report: Back to the boss, it was the brothers from Zuoying who were making noise.
Why noisy?Dai Shantian suddenly said a little unhappy. He was already full of anger, but now he was even more angry when he was tortured by the other party.
The bodyguard hesitated for a moment, looked at Dai Shantian's blood-red eyes because of drinking, and immediately did not dare to hide it. He quickly reported: It was Elder Zhang's man who stole more than a dozen women from Zuoying and injured the family members who came forward to stop him. The brother was dissatisfied for a moment, so he started to clamor and asked the boss to make a comment.
damn it!Dai Shantian threw the cup to the ground hard. When has it been, and he still doesn’t forget to be arrogant!
In addition to the previous club and the young and strong men recruited, Dai Shantian's subordinates also retreated thousands of families of the army.
Those people joined the team just to have a good meal. The young and strong family joined the team, and the old and young followed behind.
As a civilian, he can barely stutter.
When there is something to do, we can also recharge the number of people and strengthen the army.
However, Elder Zhang and his dozens of personal guards were the Supreme Emperor of Dai Shantian’s thousands of men. They believed that they were masters from the Hell Gate. They usually acted as majestic and gave priority to food and clothing. They teased women and bullied the weak.
Dai Shantian also turned a blind eye, as long as he didn't do too much, it would be fine.
But now, when is there a strong enemy outside, and the people in the army are disintegrated. These grandsons are still not doing anything to provoke public anger. I really don’t know if they are alive?
Even if Elder Zhang is very capable and those personal guards are not weak, they can kill many zombies alone?
Dai Shantian walked out of the tent and saw hundreds of people yelling indignantly in the rain. When he saw the leader coming out, he immediately shouted to ask him to make the decision. More than a dozen miserables simply knelt in the mud, howling with tears.
Boss Dai, I have been with your old man since the beginning of the rebellion, fighting zombies and fighting the Meiling Army to the death, but I have no complaints at all.Seeing that I finally returned home safely, I just want to take the little money you rewarded by your boss and be a farmer and settle down.But then I thought that those beasts raised by the bitch actually fell in love with my wife and insisted on taking her to serve Elder Zhang.Boss Ah, my wife has been pregnant for three months, and I have tried my best to carry her here.Boss, you want to save my wife!
A middle-aged man knelt in front of Dai Shantian and said crying while kowtowing.An older man rushed over and hugged Dai Shantian's legs and burst into tears.
Boss, I, Chen Yousi, have been with you for decades!I was killed by the club along the way. I didn’t even say I wanted to raise an army, so I followed everyone and joined the army.My brother and son both died for the club, and only one miserable daughter was left.He was worried about staying at home, so he simply disguised himself as a man and became a civilian.Boss, my daughter is only sixteen years old, but she does all her work as a man, just to stutter.Now that we are finally back alive, the girl has let the gangsters take her away. Boss Ah, you have to make the decision for us and don’t let us brothers who follow you through life and death feel disappointed!
Dai Shantian's face turned red. The old man Chen Yousi was the one who followed when his father was the leader of the club.
Later, he inherited the community and was one of the few people who had been following him. Whether they fell to the trough or were chased by others, they were never abandoned. His brothers and sons died in the community fighting and battlefield, which was a loyal and righteous family.
The middle-aged man also followed his old man. He once blocked his enemy's knife for him, causing him to become disabled. He didn't get his wife until some time ago.
These people's words pierced his heart like sharp arrows, not to mention that thousands of empathetic soldiers were looking at him quietly in the rain, and his eyes made him feel cold behind his back as he came out of the sea of blood.
Bodyguards gather!Follow me to find Zhang Zhiyuan!Dai Shantian quickly distinguished the priorities and he immediately shouted loudly.
Before he could enter the camp where Elder Zhang was located, Dai Shantian heard the sound of a woman crying and the sound of her personal guards teasing.
He tried his best to suppress his anger, and then said to the guard guard at the gate: I want to see Elder Zhang!
The guard guards at the gate were direct disciples of the Eastern Branch sected by the Hell Sect. They have always been above the top and have always looked down on those militias.
They looked at Dai Shantian with a slight smile, and then said: Lord Dai, Elder Zhang has rested. If you have anything to do, come again tomorrow...
I have important things to report to Elder Zhang. If this is delayed, can you afford it?Dai Shantian said with anger on his face.
What important things can happen if you can do it now? Could it be that the rioters at the foot of the mountain have been attacked?I don’t think so. Can you defeat the thousands of soldiers of Lord Dai?
The disciple of the Hell Gate who was guarding the gate couldn't help but laugh.
Of course he knew what Dai Shantian was doing at this time, so he naturally didn't want to let the other party in!
Dai Shantian didn't say anything nonsense, and pushed open the disciple of the Hell Gate guarding the gate and strode in.Dai Shantian's bodyguards divided some of them around the gatekeepers, and most of them rushed in.
Dai Shantian, you are so bold. You dare to break into Elder Zhang’s tent directly. I see how you explain to the Lord then!
Seeing that the personal soldiers could not stop the other party, they could only stand beside him and threaten coldly.
Dai Shantian ignored the fierce and timid leader of the soldier, and went straight to the camp where there were women crying with a cold face. When he opened the curtain, he saw more than a dozen disciples of the Hell Sect were laughing around several women who were stolen. The women looked frightened and their clothes were not covered, and they were constantly being exposed to the disciples of the Hell Sect.
Dai Shantian's face turned black when he saw this scene. He immediately ordered his subordinates to snatch the women out and put on his clothes and send them back to the camp.
And those disciples of Hell Sect immediately stopped and shouted at Dai Shantian.
Dai Shantian's bodyguards had already been furious, and immediately pushed and shoved the disciples of the Hell Sect without hesitation.
Although the disciples of Hell Sect are good at martial arts, Dai Shantian's bodyguards are also outlaws who lick blood from the edge of the knife. Seeing that both sides were about to start a fight, Elder Zhang was still alarmed in the end.
Lord Dai, what are you doing?After hearing the aggrieved personal soldier's report first, Elder Zhang said with displeasure as he was a little as water.
Facing the sinister Elder Zhang, Dai Shantian suppressed his anger. He knew that he still needed the support of the Hell Gate. After all, the other party's background was not comparable to his small underworld club.
So even though the authority was violated several times, Dai Shantian still maintained a relative respect: Elder Zhang, your subordinates forcibly rob the family of my subordinates...
Unexpectedly, Elder Zhang interrupted the other party without hesitation. He said impatiently: Didn’t he just snatch a few girls?Is it necessary to make a fuss?
Dai Shantian's expression changed, but he still suppressed his anger and his fists clattered.
Then he pointed out the hidden dangers: Elder Zhang, your personal guard has already aroused the anger of the people. If it is not properly handled, it may disrupt the morale of the army!
Although Elder Zhang is arrogant and domineering, he is not a fool. Those who can become the elders of Hell Sect branch are all human spirits.
Dai Shantian insisted on giving up S City and withdrawing troops directly. On the surface, he firmly opposed it, but in fact he was very supportive. Otherwise, Dai Shantian would not have retreated so quickly.
Moreover, when Elder Zhang saw Xie Tenglong's fall with his own eyes and lost contact with the Hell Sect General Hall, he knew that it was different from before. He had to have soldiers in his hands, so that he could live in the end of the world and get promoted and make money!
So he was very considerate of Dai Shantian and wanted to conquer him, so he would give him some face in everything.
He understood Dai Shantian's meaning just now. In this situation, what he feared the most was mutiny. There were thousands of soldiers and military families outside.
Once a mutiny occurs, no matter how powerful Elder Zhang is, can he lead people to kill all thousands of people?
Then can they still break through the zombies?
Elder Zhang is not Xie Tenglong, he does not have that kind of self-confidence.
Lord Dai is worthy of loving the people like his son... Elder Zhang first made an official voice, then pointed to the captain of the personal soldiers who came over and said lightly: You guys, let all the invited women.
Yes, but those women have been picked up by Lord Dai.
The captain of the personal soldiers had already finished the process and was very upset that Dai Shantian rashly interrupted his group of people, so he said with a slight smile.
Boss, and my daughter!My daughter didn't see it!Chen Yousi shouted anxiously from the side that he had just walked around but did not see his daughter.
Adults, and my wife!The middle-aged man He Youcai was also shouting there, and two other men who could not find their relatives were shouting at the same time.
Dai Shantian immediately turned his head and said to the captain of the personal soldiers: Master Liu Xiang, there are still a few women, please release them.
Although the man named Liu is the captain of Elder Zhang, he is a relative of a powerful figure in the headquarters, so he is the position of Deputy Xiangzhu in the Eastern Branch.
This time, he served as Elder Zhang's personal soldiers, and if there was no accident in Xie Tenglong's plan, he could remove the deputy character Liu Xiangzhu's name after going back.
Therefore, this person has always been arrogant and domineering, even Elder Zhang wants to sell him some face!
Chen Yousi ran and crawled to the tent next to him, and He Youcai and others followed closely. Dai Shantian signaled several bodyguards to follow him quickly to prevent accidents.
Soon, a low crying sound came from the camp, just like a wounded old wolf who wanted to cry but couldn't cry loudly.
At this time, a bodyguard hurried over and said in Dai Shantian's ear: Chen Yousi's daughter was ruined, and the two fathers and daughters were hugging their heads and crying.
Seeing that if the bodyguards next to him were not holding tightly, Chen Yousi would have rushed up and fought.
In addition, the other militia were full of indignation and gloomy faces. Elder Zhang quickly pretended to blame his personal captain: Captain Liu, what's going on?
These women were all voluntarily, just trying to earn some money and food.Captain Liu said indifferently, and had not even seen the other person directly.
In fact, what he was talking about was the helpless act of some women at the bottom after the arrival of the end of the world.
If you don’t have a skill, if your physical strength is not as good as that of a man, many women can only do some flesh and blood business in exchange for some supplies in order to survive.
This kind of thing is common in Hell Gate or other teams of survivors.
Of course, Elder Zhang knew the virtues of his personal soldiers, but he was unwilling to offend Deputy Xiangzhu Liu for a few mud legs. He could only say without any pain: Since that is the case, you won’t give others some money and food!
Now that the end of the world is coming, the original coins have really lost their original function. Master Liu Xiang took a bag of several kilograms of rice handed over by his subordinates, threw it in front of Chen Yousi, and then walked away cursingly.
Dai Shantian's face turned ashen, his steel teeth were clenched, and he was about to have an attack, Elder Zhang hurried out to smooth things over and said: Lord Dai, everyone is the same court, there is no need to hurt the harmony.Master Liu Xiang has a lot of connections in the headquarters, and even I dare not offend him too much...
Dai Shantian felt very resentful when he heard this, knowing that if Elder Zhang had not come forward today, Lord Liu Xiang might not even be willing to compensate for the bag of rice.
But he also knew that Master Liu Xiang had a backstage in the Hell Gate General Hall. If he still wanted to stay under the Hell Gate, he would not offend the other party.
Dai Shantian, who had hesitated for a while, had to suppress his anger and turned to persuade the militia.
After a long quarrel, the militia dispersed and returned to the camp, but through their mouths, what had just happened soon spread throughout the camp.
********************
Everyone, how to attack Qingshan Town must be discussed carefully.In the big tent of the camp at the foot of the mountain, Chen Qichao, who was sitting in the middle, spoke first.
Chen Qichao disagreed at the beginning of the militia that ambushed Dai Shantian.
You should know that although he had previously conquered Lutouzhai and merged with Majiazhuang, survivors from Hongjiazhai and other places joined one after another, which once increased the strength of Dameiling to more than 1,000 people, and the population was directly close to tens of thousands!
But Chen Qichao knew that most of these people were untrained recruits, and some were citizens or farmers who had never seen blood, far from meeting the standards he required.
But Ma Dongxuan reminded Chen Qichao that one mountain cannot accommodate two tigers, and Dai Shantian’s old nest Qingshan Town is only a hundred miles away from Dameiling. He is also the most threatening force to his side at present!
If the owner of Dameiling was Xie Tenglong, of course he didn't need to worry about a vassal force under the Hell Sect. But now Chen Qichao overthrew Bai Menglong and eliminated everything from the Hell Sect. Then whether it was the Hell Sect instructions or Dai Shantian himself had ambitions, he would definitely fight against Dameiling.
Dai Shantian had thousands of men. Even though the quality was not as good as Dameiling, his absolute quantity advantage was enough to make the Meiling army exhausted.
Chen Qichao's troops were also stationed in several major fortresses in Dameiling, and there were still hidden dangers inside.
Dai Shantian was originally a local powerful and the boss of the underworld community. When he returned to Qingshan Town to stabilize his position, he would attract foreign aid under the banner of Hell Gate. I am afraid that there would be no place for Meiling Army to gain foothold in S City!
Chen Qichao accepted Ma Dongxuan's suggestion and ambushed Dai Shantian's troops with the 800 Meiling Army who had rushed into an army.
He made some adjustments in the deployment of troops, with the elites on the left and right battalions as the main force and the other new recruits as the auxiliary. When he found out Dai Shantian's temporary camp, he first rushed to Dai Shantian's main camp with Baiwu Camp at night. After shocking Dai Shantian, Elder Zhang and others, the large group of people bluffed everywhere, causing the leaderless Dai family militia to defeat in an instant. This made Chen Qichao succeed. Not only did he seize a large amount of military supplies, but he also chased him to the bottom of Qingshan Town.
Of course, the Meiling Army also lost more than 100 people, including Zhang Shiji, who had always been dissatisfied with the seizure of power and more than a dozen of his confidants.
The war entered a stalemate stage, which made Chen Qichao feel new pressure. Although the Meiling Army surrounded Qingshan (the small hill where Qingshan Town is called Qingshan, also known as Qingshan), Chen Qichao knew in his heart that the situation where Qingshan Town's troops continued to have an advantage has not changed, and who wins and loses is still between.
During the ambush battle, Chen Qichao did not want to fight a defeat, but expected a total annihilation battle.
But Dai Shantian had two more tricks, so he quickly gathered his troops and wrapped his family members in the army, and slowly retreated to Qingshan Town. Chen Qichao had to lead his army to chase after him, and he could not find a chance to speak out for a while.
Dai Shantian's militia was already discouraged in the battle. If we win another big victory, I am afraid that his entire army will lose courage and will not be far from being defeated.Ma Jiao sat there and responded first.
That's why we must seize the time and strive to defeat the Qingshan Army again.If Dai Shantian calms the morale of the army and stabilizes his position, it will be difficult for us to fight.
Wang Zhenwu, who was sitting next to him, agreed.
The rest of Cao Yun, Monk Zhen and Wei Yunlong nodded there and said yes.
Mr. Ma, what do you think?Chen Qichao turned to Ma Dongxuan and asked.
It should not be difficult to defeat the Qingshan Army again, and the morale between the two armies will be obvious at a glance.What I am now worried about is how to surrender all the Qingshan Army.His troops combined with his military power may have at least a few thousand!If it can be absorbed, it will be an absolute qualitative change for our Dameiling’s strength!This will lay the foundation for us to take over the Southwest District and may even regain several other districts!
Ma Dongxuan stroked his palm and nodded.
Then the sir should have made a decision long ago, so you might as well speak out.Chen Qichao admires Ma Dongxuan's deep thoughts and foresights very much. This is the real strategist.
We can do two-pronged approach, fight first and then pull.Ma Dongxuan replied decisively.
Chen Qichao said with a smile: So sir asked me to send Xia Yu to invite Dai Shantian’s uncle and benefactor from the original club. It turned out that sir had already calculated...
That's exactly!But the most important thing is that we must defeat Dai Shantian and leave him with no way out, otherwise with his personality, those uncles and benefactors will not be able to impress him.Ma Dongxuan nodded and replied.
Dai Shantian is from the underworld and is keen on official career. Now he has received support from the Hell Gate, so it may be difficult for him to turn back.
Chen Qichao said with a frown.
He didn't expect that the Hell Gate's foundation was so powerful. Even after Xie Tenglong was killed, there were still many remaining troops in S City.
He even suspected that forces like Dai Shantian who were supported by the Hell Gate were probably not a few!
In other words, he is likely to face the crazy revenge of the Hell Gate next!
As the saying goes, the boat will turn around whenever it reaches the water. If Dai Shantian falls into a desperate situation, it will not be possible to not turn around.Ma Dongxuan replied with a smile, his eyes flashing with cunning.
Yes, what the sir said is exactly.Chen Qichao thought for a while and suddenly shouted, it seems that the key to making Dai Shantian surrender lies in Elder Zhang in his army.
What does the leader mean?Ma Jiao has some understanding.
Kill the man surnamed Zhang and force Dai Shantian to rebel!Chen Qichao waved his hand fiercely.
Everyone realized that Elder Zhang was a sect from Hell who came to Dai Shantian's team to supervise the army. If he died in Dai Shantian's army, the latter would definitely not be able to bear this responsibility, and the other party would have no way out.
Chen Qichao opened a sketch, which was the layout map of Qingshan Town.
After the two armies stalemate for more than ten days, Chen Qichao had already sent people to sneak into Qingshan Town and figured out the situation above.
Half of Dai Shantian's army were from S City, and there were also a large number of military subordinates mixed in it, which provided great convenience for Meiling Army's reconnaissance, and at least found out the general distribution of each camp.
Elder Zhang's camp is here, and the terrain is slightly higher here. Compared with other militias soaked in the mud, it seems that Dai Shantian is quite taking good care of the Zhang surnamed.
Chen Qichao pointed to a point in the sketch and said.
Another place with the surname Zhang also provided convenience for us to attack him.
Ma Jiao looked at the sketch and said bluntly. In order to avoid the mud and possible mountain torrents, Zhang's camp was built on this small hill. On the left and right were the camps of the civil servants, in front of the militia camps, and behind were Zuoling in Qingshan Town, which was guarded in the middle. I think the key is Zuoling.
Yes, Zuoling, if we cross Zuoling, we can attack Elder Zhang directly from behind.However, Zuoling Mountain is dangerous and there are Qingshan Army checkpoints, so it is not so easy to pass.
Wang Zhenwu suddenly raised a question at this time.
It was difficult for the army to move, so we sent hundreds of elite troops to sneak over.Chen Qichao's fingers hit the sketch hard, who would you like to take on this important task?
Wang Zhenwu, Zhen Monk Shang, Cao Yun, Wei Yunlong, Miao Lang, Ma Jiao and Ma Dongxian looked at each other, stood up one after another, and said in unison: I am willing to go!
Chen Qichao swept over their faces, thinking for a while in his heart and said: "The person who is surnamed Zhang is important, but the frontal attack is equally important. If we don't fight in front, Dai Shantian's attention will be difficult to attract us."Once the Qingshan Army faces us head-on, our number of troops will be at a disadvantage. If it is defeated, it will be useless even if the attack succeeds.Therefore, Dongxian, Ma Jiao and Wang Zhenwu must stay.
When everyone heard this, they nodded and said yes.Ma Dongxian, Ma Jiao and Wang Zhenwu are not inferior to others, but they are better at commanding the army.The army is really inseparable from them when it is unfolding in the front!
I plan to let the monk and Miao Lang serve as reserve teams to prevent Dai Shantian from escaping.Madongxian, you lead your personal soldiers to guard the Central Camp!Chen Qichao slowly stated the subsequent arrangements.
Zhenwu, Miaolang!
Chen Qichao called out the two of them by name, and held their hands solemnly and said: The key to the victory or defeat of this battle lies with you and the two of you. Please don’t have the expectations of defeating the soldiers!After the great victory, I would like to worship the first wine for you!
Wang Zhenwu looked calm, while Miao Lang grinned and said: Please don’t worry, my old Miao will definitely present his dog head to you!
Okay, you two mainly focus on the Hundred Martial Camp, and then select 300 elite soldiers, find a few spies who are familiar with the terrain path of Qingshan Town, and take action immediately!Chen Qichao nodded and said solemnly.
That night, the Meiling army at the foot of the mountain had dinner early, and then the whole army rested as soon as possible.
At around three o'clock in the morning, which is the most sleepy period of human beings, the Meiling Army was quietly awakened, and then smeared and ate dry food and breakfast in the quilt, and then quietly sorted out the soldiers.
At around four o'clock in the morning, the entire Meiling army gathered in the rain that began to become lighter, and began to set off in several parts.
Ma Jiao led more than 200 people in the Right Battalion, thinking that the vanguard was in the front, Wang Zhenwu led more than 200 people in the Left Battalion, followed closely behind, they were the main force of the front attack.
Wang Zhenwu led two hundred people in the reserve camp, lying on the flanks, and was at his fate.
The Chen Qichao and the Ma brothers led more than 500 people in the central camp to command, and Xia Yu served as the commander and followed.
Watching teams of soldiers carrying spears and carrying ring knives, quickly lined up out of the camp and set up a formation at the foot of the mountain, Xia Yu looked at Chen Qichao who was standing straight in the drizzle, and couldn't help but ask softly: Leader, why did you attack at this time?
Now is the time for people who have been sleeping soundly all night.Chen Qichao turned his head and replied with a smile. Seeing Xia Yu nodding with a little thought, he turned around and continued to look at his subordinates who were marching and setting up the formation.
go ahead!Ma Jiao, who was riding on the horse, saw that his subordinates were lined up in an order, waved his hand and ordered.
Chen Qichao looked at the general who was promoted when he was the commander of the secret camp, and his eyes were filled with relief.
Although Ma Jiao is not as good as Wang Zhenwu and Zhen’s martial arts, he is a good player in commanding the army and leading the army.
That's why Chen Qichao made Ma Jiao take on an extremely important forward position!
Amid the drums of the low-level non-commissioned officers, two hundred soldiers began to advance, and the neat footsteps seemed very powerful, but Ma Jiao knew that most of the recruits had not been training for a long time. Although they were walking neatly now, they just followed the rhythm of the veterans. I don’t know how effective it would be if they really fought?
In order to allow the new militia to adapt to life in the army as soon as possible, Chen Qichao, in addition to retaining a few purely elite troops, he invaded many veterans as backbone non-commissioned officers to train troops.
Soon the Mass Exchange Department came to the Dai family army camp at the foot of Qingshan Town. The guard guard at night finally found an abnormality and quickly shouted and beat the gong.
The Dai family army had thousands of people, and the military family was more. The small Qingshan Town could not accommodate so many people, so their camps were built to the foot of the mountain, facing the Meiling Army from afar.
Ma Jiao ignored the movements on the other side and raised his hand and ordered: Stop!
The entire army stopped as ordered. The sergeants in the front row squatted down, held their spears diagonally, and stepped on the tail of the spears leaning on the ground with their feet. The sergeants in the back also held their spears diagonally, crossed the shoulders of the sergeants in front, forming rows of spear formations like forests.
This is a spear formation that Chen Qichao and several generals have improved based on previous actual combat.
However, because most people are short in training and incomplete in equipment, they look like half-baked goods.
At this time, hundreds of people ran out of the formation. They braved the arrows that had begun to shoot out sparsely, ran to the Dai Family Army camp, threw out the rope cover, and then a few people pulled it hard and pulled down the not-so-reliable wooden fence.
When the open space came out, Ma Jiao pulled out the ring knife and roared: Kill!The whole army burst into a shout, and then everyone stood up with their spears and ran forward quickly.
Roster, what do you want to do?Zhang Shiji asked back in a daze.
I called someone to the roster and sent a weapon, how fast!This is also the rule of our Dameiling.Chen Qichao said lightly.
What rules are you? You are not afraid that we will take more weapons!
Zhang Shiji complained in dissatisfaction.
But the temptation brought by those more than a dozen vehicles of weapons was something he could not resist!
He asked his men to report the list and then summarize it. After more than an hour of busyness, he finally completed a roster.
Originally, the household registration statistics of several remote mountain villages such as Lutouzhai were unpredictable. In addition, since the end of the world, many of the information stored in the computers could not be viewed due to the collapse of the Internet.
In addition, Zhang Shiji was not in the mood to do civil affairs, so he spent a lot of time just counting the number of people.
Brothers, why do you go to Lutou Village?Chen Qichao was not in a hurry to hold the roster, but shouted loudly to the team.
After a while of silence, someone finally said softly: It’s not because there is no way out!
What if I lead a way for everyone?Chen Qichao suddenly used his internal force to transmit the voice to a distance, allowing hundreds of people present to hear it clearly.
Zhang Shiji began to suspicion about Chen Qichao's words. In addition to some of his subordinates, a considerable number of people who were forced to defect to the end of the world. Those people belonged to the exploited people. He was a little moved when he heard Chen Qichao's confusing statement. Zhang Shiji repeatedly winked and coughed, but Chen Qichao regarded it as a wind in his ears.
Chen Qichao saw black smoke rising from Lutou Village behind him, and knew that his subordinates had succeeded, so he turned Lutou Village into a sea of fire. He immediately shouted: In order to give everyone a way out, your village leader has decided to join my Dameiling and fight against the zombies together. In order to show his determination, he has sent someone to burn Lutou Village!
As soon as the words were finished, everyone turned their heads and looked back. They found that the smoke was rolling in Lutou Village, and the sea of fire was about to turn into ruins. They immediately believed Chen Qichao's words, thinking that Zhang Shiji was really ruining his family.
Zhang Shiji was both annoyed and hated. Of course, he understood that it was Chen Qichao's actions. He was about to order his subordinates to come up and tie Chen Qichao up, but suddenly he felt that there was something hard on his back, and a voice sounded in his ears: Master Zhang, don't act rashly, otherwise my guy will not recognize anyone.
It was Ma Dongxian who came with Chen Qichao, and his voice continued to ring in Zhang Shiji's ears: Master Zhang, there is another thing to tell you, your wife, children, are in our hands now, you can do it.
Zhang Shiji looked back and found that Chen Qichao brought less people. Cao Yun, who was matched with a sword and arrogant temperament, was gone. His throat couldn't help but feel bitter, but he couldn't speak.
I have already negotiated with the leader of Zhang. All the people from Lutou Village moved to Damaile. Master Zhang, let me say a few words.Chen Qichao turned his head and said, but the smile on his face made Zhang Shiji shudder.
Zhang Shiji swallowed his throat with difficulty, and finally shouted helplessly: My Lutou Village will join the leader of Chen, and all of them will be moved to Dameiling.
As soon as Zhang Shiji said that, his dozen or so of his confidants who felt wrong had already surrendered when they saw that the leader of the village had already surrendered. Look at me, I look at you, and I don’t dare to attack, so they had to endure it.
Soon, Monk Zhen and Wei Yunlong took their men down the mountain and met with Chen Qichao. They were wrapped in Zhang Shiji's family, hundreds of Lutou Village, and dozens of trucks of food and food supplies, and came to Dameiling.
Wang Zhenwu, Miao Lang, Ma Jiao and others came with three hundred elite troops. Seeing that the situation was settled, they slowly retreated to Dameiling.
Majiazhuang and Lutouzhai successively surrendered to Dameiling, making Chen Qichao's name even more prosperous and faintly became the most powerful force within a radius of 100 miles!
********************
In more than March, the Jianghuai region ushered in its first initial rain.
As the saying goes, spring rain is as expensive as oil. Unfortunately, in this zombie-ridden apocalypse, normal agricultural production has been destroyed. Except for a few areas, most places are dead and there is no hope.
For Dai Shantian, his mood was also extremely bad.
He had just patrolled outside and found that the situation in the entire camp was very bad. Most of the places were soaked in mud, and the people of each camp were suffering. Moreover, as the rain continued and the food was about to end, the situation would continue to worsen.
Dai Shantian had just returned to the tent, and an old servant who had been following him for many years brought two steamed cakes and a pot of bad wine.
Drinking the stuffy wine alone, Dai Shantian felt more and more frustrated as he drank.
Speaking of which, Dai Shantian was originally a real estate developer on the surface, but secretly he was a gangster.
When the end of the world came, he also wanted to become king and dominate. So in the early days of the end of the world, he mobilized all his connections and sold his property. With his original younger brother, he recruited more than a thousand young and strong men to form a militia.
Later, Dai Shantian encountered a mysterious sect. Seeing that the other party was powerful, he directly turned to the other party with tactfulness.
The sect praised Dai Shantian's sensibility, and most of his subordinates were outlaws, who were brave in fighting when they encountered corpse tides and were willing to use their lives. So he allocated a batch of gun military funds to Dai Shantian, and even handed over thousands of people from some survivors found from other places to Commander Dai Shantian.
Of course, the sect also sent an elder Zhang Zhiyuan as the military supervisor.
Dai Shantian was full of energy and was ready to make achievements in this chaotic world and show his strength.
But the good times did not last long. The sect that was originally full of energy and swore to control the world, but in the battle with the Corpse King, the man who was unfathomable and respected as the Ghost King fell.
As soon as he died, the remaining troops of the sect began to split. First, the ghost king's direct troops withdrew their troops without authorization, avoiding the S City New District, where the corpse group was the most prosperous, and disappeared.
Dai Shantian immediately smelled something wrong, knew that things were no longer possible, and despite Zhang Zhiyuan's opposition, he also withdrew from the battlefield with his troops.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he entered the southwest area, he was ambushed.
Thousands of unprepared men were beaten to pieces by hundreds of Meiling Army. The weapons and supplies that had finally accumulated were lost. It was only after returning to Qingshan Town, Laowo, to stabilize their position.
However, this Meiling army chased after him and continued to chase him to the foot of the mountain. They set up camp and surrounded him.
Dai Shantian was angry for a moment and was about to lead his reorganized subordinates to go down the mountain to fight a good battle with his opponent. Who knew that God was not going well and it started to rain.
Facing the Meiling Army who was trapped in the camp and was ready for battle, Dai Shantian hesitated for a while, but finally he was unwilling to waste his subordinates' lives in the unnecessary battle.
Dai Shantian has also heard of the name of Meiling Army at the foot of the mountain. Meiling Army and Chen Qichao were all influential figures during this period.
There are also many ambitious people like Dai Shantian in the end of the world. Some elites who usually control power or armed forces will transform into leaders or controllers of the survivor team in the end of the world.
However, Chen Qichao was busy clearing the inside and did not step on Dai Shantian's territory, so he did not have any conflicts with him.
Now he is directly pressed to the other party's door, which is a bit intolerable.
Dai Shantian put the wine glass heavily on the table, feeling very angry.
It was not that he didn't want to fight the Meiling army to the death, but he knew in his heart that his subordinates had already lost their morale after the battle of S City New District and the ambush in the country, and had long lost their fighting spirit. On the other hand, the soldiers and horses of Dameiling were at their peak.
If I defeated them again, the morale of the army that I finally gathered together might be completely dispersed.
Dai Shantian dared not bet on Ah. In this end of the world, only by having soldiers and food can you ensure your safety, otherwise you will live a worse life than a pig or dog!
Just as Dai Shantian was thinking about these things in a suffocating manner, a quarrel sounded outside the tent, and the noisy sound made Dai Shantian even more upset and couldn't help but shout: What's going on!
The bodyguard outside the tent immediately came in to report: Back to the boss, it was the brothers from Zuoying who were making noise.
Why noisy?Dai Shantian suddenly said a little unhappy. He was already full of anger, but now he was even more angry when he was tortured by the other party.
The bodyguard hesitated for a moment, looked at Dai Shantian's blood-red eyes because of drinking, and immediately did not dare to hide it. He quickly reported: It was Elder Zhang's man who stole more than a dozen women from Zuoying and injured the family members who came forward to stop him. The brother was dissatisfied for a moment, so he started to clamor and asked the boss to make a comment.
damn it!Dai Shantian threw the cup to the ground hard. When has it been, and he still doesn’t forget to be arrogant!
In addition to the previous club and the young and strong men recruited, Dai Shantian's subordinates also retreated thousands of families of the army.
Those people joined the team just to have a good meal. The young and strong family joined the team, and the old and young followed behind.
As a civilian, he can barely stutter.
When there is something to do, we can also recharge the number of people and strengthen the army.
However, Elder Zhang and his dozens of personal guards were the Supreme Emperor of Dai Shantian’s thousands of men. They believed that they were masters from the Hell Gate. They usually acted as majestic and gave priority to food and clothing. They teased women and bullied the weak.
Dai Shantian also turned a blind eye, as long as he didn't do too much, it would be fine.
But now, when is there a strong enemy outside, and the people in the army are disintegrated. These grandsons are still not doing anything to provoke public anger. I really don’t know if they are alive?
Even if Elder Zhang is very capable and those personal guards are not weak, they can kill many zombies alone?
Dai Shantian walked out of the tent and saw hundreds of people yelling indignantly in the rain. When he saw the leader coming out, he immediately shouted to ask him to make the decision. More than a dozen miserables simply knelt in the mud, howling with tears.
Boss Dai, I have been with your old man since the beginning of the rebellion, fighting zombies and fighting the Meiling Army to the death, but I have no complaints at all.Seeing that I finally returned home safely, I just want to take the little money you rewarded by your boss and be a farmer and settle down.But then I thought that those beasts raised by the bitch actually fell in love with my wife and insisted on taking her to serve Elder Zhang.Boss Ah, my wife has been pregnant for three months, and I have tried my best to carry her here.Boss, you want to save my wife!
A middle-aged man knelt in front of Dai Shantian and said crying while kowtowing.An older man rushed over and hugged Dai Shantian's legs and burst into tears.
Boss, I, Chen Yousi, have been with you for decades!I was killed by the club along the way. I didn’t even say I wanted to raise an army, so I followed everyone and joined the army.My brother and son both died for the club, and only one miserable daughter was left.He was worried about staying at home, so he simply disguised himself as a man and became a civilian.Boss, my daughter is only sixteen years old, but she does all her work as a man, just to stutter.Now that we are finally back alive, the girl has let the gangsters take her away. Boss Ah, you have to make the decision for us and don’t let us brothers who follow you through life and death feel disappointed!
Dai Shantian's face turned red. The old man Chen Yousi was the one who followed when his father was the leader of the club.
Later, he inherited the community and was one of the few people who had been following him. Whether they fell to the trough or were chased by others, they were never abandoned. His brothers and sons died in the community fighting and battlefield, which was a loyal and righteous family.
The middle-aged man also followed his old man. He once blocked his enemy's knife for him, causing him to become disabled. He didn't get his wife until some time ago.
These people's words pierced his heart like sharp arrows, not to mention that thousands of empathetic soldiers were looking at him quietly in the rain, and his eyes made him feel cold behind his back as he came out of the sea of blood.
Bodyguards gather!Follow me to find Zhang Zhiyuan!Dai Shantian quickly distinguished the priorities and he immediately shouted loudly.
Before he could enter the camp where Elder Zhang was located, Dai Shantian heard the sound of a woman crying and the sound of her personal guards teasing.
He tried his best to suppress his anger, and then said to the guard guard at the gate: I want to see Elder Zhang!
The guard guards at the gate were direct disciples of the Eastern Branch sected by the Hell Sect. They have always been above the top and have always looked down on those militias.
They looked at Dai Shantian with a slight smile, and then said: Lord Dai, Elder Zhang has rested. If you have anything to do, come again tomorrow...
I have important things to report to Elder Zhang. If this is delayed, can you afford it?Dai Shantian said with anger on his face.
What important things can happen if you can do it now? Could it be that the rioters at the foot of the mountain have been attacked?I don’t think so. Can you defeat the thousands of soldiers of Lord Dai?
The disciple of the Hell Gate who was guarding the gate couldn't help but laugh.
Of course he knew what Dai Shantian was doing at this time, so he naturally didn't want to let the other party in!
Dai Shantian didn't say anything nonsense, and pushed open the disciple of the Hell Gate guarding the gate and strode in.Dai Shantian's bodyguards divided some of them around the gatekeepers, and most of them rushed in.
Dai Shantian, you are so bold. You dare to break into Elder Zhang’s tent directly. I see how you explain to the Lord then!
Seeing that the personal soldiers could not stop the other party, they could only stand beside him and threaten coldly.
Dai Shantian ignored the fierce and timid leader of the soldier, and went straight to the camp where there were women crying with a cold face. When he opened the curtain, he saw more than a dozen disciples of the Hell Sect were laughing around several women who were stolen. The women looked frightened and their clothes were not covered, and they were constantly being exposed to the disciples of the Hell Sect.
Dai Shantian's face turned black when he saw this scene. He immediately ordered his subordinates to snatch the women out and put on his clothes and send them back to the camp.
And those disciples of Hell Sect immediately stopped and shouted at Dai Shantian.
Dai Shantian's bodyguards had already been furious, and immediately pushed and shoved the disciples of the Hell Sect without hesitation.
Although the disciples of Hell Sect are good at martial arts, Dai Shantian's bodyguards are also outlaws who lick blood from the edge of the knife. Seeing that both sides were about to start a fight, Elder Zhang was still alarmed in the end.
Lord Dai, what are you doing?After hearing the aggrieved personal soldier's report first, Elder Zhang said with displeasure as he was a little as water.
Facing the sinister Elder Zhang, Dai Shantian suppressed his anger. He knew that he still needed the support of the Hell Gate. After all, the other party's background was not comparable to his small underworld club.
So even though the authority was violated several times, Dai Shantian still maintained a relative respect: Elder Zhang, your subordinates forcibly rob the family of my subordinates...
Unexpectedly, Elder Zhang interrupted the other party without hesitation. He said impatiently: Didn’t he just snatch a few girls?Is it necessary to make a fuss?
Dai Shantian's expression changed, but he still suppressed his anger and his fists clattered.
Then he pointed out the hidden dangers: Elder Zhang, your personal guard has already aroused the anger of the people. If it is not properly handled, it may disrupt the morale of the army!
Although Elder Zhang is arrogant and domineering, he is not a fool. Those who can become the elders of Hell Sect branch are all human spirits.
Dai Shantian insisted on giving up S City and withdrawing troops directly. On the surface, he firmly opposed it, but in fact he was very supportive. Otherwise, Dai Shantian would not have retreated so quickly.
Moreover, when Elder Zhang saw Xie Tenglong's fall with his own eyes and lost contact with the Hell Sect General Hall, he knew that it was different from before. He had to have soldiers in his hands, so that he could live in the end of the world and get promoted and make money!
So he was very considerate of Dai Shantian and wanted to conquer him, so he would give him some face in everything.
He understood Dai Shantian's meaning just now. In this situation, what he feared the most was mutiny. There were thousands of soldiers and military families outside.
Once a mutiny occurs, no matter how powerful Elder Zhang is, can he lead people to kill all thousands of people?
Then can they still break through the zombies?
Elder Zhang is not Xie Tenglong, he does not have that kind of self-confidence.
Lord Dai is worthy of loving the people like his son... Elder Zhang first made an official voice, then pointed to the captain of the personal soldiers who came over and said lightly: You guys, let all the invited women.
Yes, but those women have been picked up by Lord Dai.
The captain of the personal soldiers had already finished the process and was very upset that Dai Shantian rashly interrupted his group of people, so he said with a slight smile.
Boss, and my daughter!My daughter didn't see it!Chen Yousi shouted anxiously from the side that he had just walked around but did not see his daughter.
Adults, and my wife!The middle-aged man He Youcai was also shouting there, and two other men who could not find their relatives were shouting at the same time.
Dai Shantian immediately turned his head and said to the captain of the personal soldiers: Master Liu Xiang, there are still a few women, please release them.
Although the man named Liu is the captain of Elder Zhang, he is a relative of a powerful figure in the headquarters, so he is the position of Deputy Xiangzhu in the Eastern Branch.
This time, he served as Elder Zhang's personal soldiers, and if there was no accident in Xie Tenglong's plan, he could remove the deputy character Liu Xiangzhu's name after going back.
Therefore, this person has always been arrogant and domineering, even Elder Zhang wants to sell him some face!
Chen Yousi ran and crawled to the tent next to him, and He Youcai and others followed closely. Dai Shantian signaled several bodyguards to follow him quickly to prevent accidents.
Soon, a low crying sound came from the camp, just like a wounded old wolf who wanted to cry but couldn't cry loudly.
At this time, a bodyguard hurried over and said in Dai Shantian's ear: Chen Yousi's daughter was ruined, and the two fathers and daughters were hugging their heads and crying.
Seeing that if the bodyguards next to him were not holding tightly, Chen Yousi would have rushed up and fought.
In addition, the other militia were full of indignation and gloomy faces. Elder Zhang quickly pretended to blame his personal captain: Captain Liu, what's going on?
These women were all voluntarily, just trying to earn some money and food.Captain Liu said indifferently, and had not even seen the other person directly.
In fact, what he was talking about was the helpless act of some women at the bottom after the arrival of the end of the world.
If you don’t have a skill, if your physical strength is not as good as that of a man, many women can only do some flesh and blood business in exchange for some supplies in order to survive.
This kind of thing is common in Hell Gate or other teams of survivors.
Of course, Elder Zhang knew the virtues of his personal soldiers, but he was unwilling to offend Deputy Xiangzhu Liu for a few mud legs. He could only say without any pain: Since that is the case, you won’t give others some money and food!
Now that the end of the world is coming, the original coins have really lost their original function. Master Liu Xiang took a bag of several kilograms of rice handed over by his subordinates, threw it in front of Chen Yousi, and then walked away cursingly.
Dai Shantian's face turned ashen, his steel teeth were clenched, and he was about to have an attack, Elder Zhang hurried out to smooth things over and said: Lord Dai, everyone is the same court, there is no need to hurt the harmony.Master Liu Xiang has a lot of connections in the headquarters, and even I dare not offend him too much...
Dai Shantian felt very resentful when he heard this, knowing that if Elder Zhang had not come forward today, Lord Liu Xiang might not even be willing to compensate for the bag of rice.
But he also knew that Master Liu Xiang had a backstage in the Hell Gate General Hall. If he still wanted to stay under the Hell Gate, he would not offend the other party.
Dai Shantian, who had hesitated for a while, had to suppress his anger and turned to persuade the militia.
After a long quarrel, the militia dispersed and returned to the camp, but through their mouths, what had just happened soon spread throughout the camp.
********************
Everyone, how to attack Qingshan Town must be discussed carefully.In the big tent of the camp at the foot of the mountain, Chen Qichao, who was sitting in the middle, spoke first.
Chen Qichao disagreed at the beginning of the militia that ambushed Dai Shantian.
You should know that although he had previously conquered Lutouzhai and merged with Majiazhuang, survivors from Hongjiazhai and other places joined one after another, which once increased the strength of Dameiling to more than 1,000 people, and the population was directly close to tens of thousands!
But Chen Qichao knew that most of these people were untrained recruits, and some were citizens or farmers who had never seen blood, far from meeting the standards he required.
But Ma Dongxuan reminded Chen Qichao that one mountain cannot accommodate two tigers, and Dai Shantian’s old nest Qingshan Town is only a hundred miles away from Dameiling. He is also the most threatening force to his side at present!
If the owner of Dameiling was Xie Tenglong, of course he didn't need to worry about a vassal force under the Hell Sect. But now Chen Qichao overthrew Bai Menglong and eliminated everything from the Hell Sect. Then whether it was the Hell Sect instructions or Dai Shantian himself had ambitions, he would definitely fight against Dameiling.
Dai Shantian had thousands of men. Even though the quality was not as good as Dameiling, his absolute quantity advantage was enough to make the Meiling army exhausted.
Chen Qichao's troops were also stationed in several major fortresses in Dameiling, and there were still hidden dangers inside.
Dai Shantian was originally a local powerful and the boss of the underworld community. When he returned to Qingshan Town to stabilize his position, he would attract foreign aid under the banner of Hell Gate. I am afraid that there would be no place for Meiling Army to gain foothold in S City!
Chen Qichao accepted Ma Dongxuan's suggestion and ambushed Dai Shantian's troops with the 800 Meiling Army who had rushed into an army.
He made some adjustments in the deployment of troops, with the elites on the left and right battalions as the main force and the other new recruits as the auxiliary. When he found out Dai Shantian's temporary camp, he first rushed to Dai Shantian's main camp with Baiwu Camp at night. After shocking Dai Shantian, Elder Zhang and others, the large group of people bluffed everywhere, causing the leaderless Dai family militia to defeat in an instant. This made Chen Qichao succeed. Not only did he seize a large amount of military supplies, but he also chased him to the bottom of Qingshan Town.
Of course, the Meiling Army also lost more than 100 people, including Zhang Shiji, who had always been dissatisfied with the seizure of power and more than a dozen of his confidants.
The war entered a stalemate stage, which made Chen Qichao feel new pressure. Although the Meiling Army surrounded Qingshan (the small hill where Qingshan Town is called Qingshan, also known as Qingshan), Chen Qichao knew in his heart that the situation where Qingshan Town's troops continued to have an advantage has not changed, and who wins and loses is still between.
During the ambush battle, Chen Qichao did not want to fight a defeat, but expected a total annihilation battle.
But Dai Shantian had two more tricks, so he quickly gathered his troops and wrapped his family members in the army, and slowly retreated to Qingshan Town. Chen Qichao had to lead his army to chase after him, and he could not find a chance to speak out for a while.
Dai Shantian's militia was already discouraged in the battle. If we win another big victory, I am afraid that his entire army will lose courage and will not be far from being defeated.Ma Jiao sat there and responded first.
That's why we must seize the time and strive to defeat the Qingshan Army again.If Dai Shantian calms the morale of the army and stabilizes his position, it will be difficult for us to fight.
Wang Zhenwu, who was sitting next to him, agreed.
The rest of Cao Yun, Monk Zhen and Wei Yunlong nodded there and said yes.
Mr. Ma, what do you think?Chen Qichao turned to Ma Dongxuan and asked.
It should not be difficult to defeat the Qingshan Army again, and the morale between the two armies will be obvious at a glance.What I am now worried about is how to surrender all the Qingshan Army.His troops combined with his military power may have at least a few thousand!If it can be absorbed, it will be an absolute qualitative change for our Dameiling’s strength!This will lay the foundation for us to take over the Southwest District and may even regain several other districts!
Ma Dongxuan stroked his palm and nodded.
Then the sir should have made a decision long ago, so you might as well speak out.Chen Qichao admires Ma Dongxuan's deep thoughts and foresights very much. This is the real strategist.
We can do two-pronged approach, fight first and then pull.Ma Dongxuan replied decisively.
Chen Qichao said with a smile: So sir asked me to send Xia Yu to invite Dai Shantian’s uncle and benefactor from the original club. It turned out that sir had already calculated...
That's exactly!But the most important thing is that we must defeat Dai Shantian and leave him with no way out, otherwise with his personality, those uncles and benefactors will not be able to impress him.Ma Dongxuan nodded and replied.
Dai Shantian is from the underworld and is keen on official career. Now he has received support from the Hell Gate, so it may be difficult for him to turn back.
Chen Qichao said with a frown.
He didn't expect that the Hell Gate's foundation was so powerful. Even after Xie Tenglong was killed, there were still many remaining troops in S City.
He even suspected that forces like Dai Shantian who were supported by the Hell Gate were probably not a few!
In other words, he is likely to face the crazy revenge of the Hell Gate next!
As the saying goes, the boat will turn around whenever it reaches the water. If Dai Shantian falls into a desperate situation, it will not be possible to not turn around.Ma Dongxuan replied with a smile, his eyes flashing with cunning.
Yes, what the sir said is exactly.Chen Qichao thought for a while and suddenly shouted, it seems that the key to making Dai Shantian surrender lies in Elder Zhang in his army.
What does the leader mean?Ma Jiao has some understanding.
Kill the man surnamed Zhang and force Dai Shantian to rebel!Chen Qichao waved his hand fiercely.
Everyone realized that Elder Zhang was a sect from Hell who came to Dai Shantian's team to supervise the army. If he died in Dai Shantian's army, the latter would definitely not be able to bear this responsibility, and the other party would have no way out.
Chen Qichao opened a sketch, which was the layout map of Qingshan Town.
After the two armies stalemate for more than ten days, Chen Qichao had already sent people to sneak into Qingshan Town and figured out the situation above.
Half of Dai Shantian's army were from S City, and there were also a large number of military subordinates mixed in it, which provided great convenience for Meiling Army's reconnaissance, and at least found out the general distribution of each camp.
Elder Zhang's camp is here, and the terrain is slightly higher here. Compared with other militias soaked in the mud, it seems that Dai Shantian is quite taking good care of the Zhang surnamed.
Chen Qichao pointed to a point in the sketch and said.
Another place with the surname Zhang also provided convenience for us to attack him.
Ma Jiao looked at the sketch and said bluntly. In order to avoid the mud and possible mountain torrents, Zhang's camp was built on this small hill. On the left and right were the camps of the civil servants, in front of the militia camps, and behind were Zuoling in Qingshan Town, which was guarded in the middle. I think the key is Zuoling.
Yes, Zuoling, if we cross Zuoling, we can attack Elder Zhang directly from behind.However, Zuoling Mountain is dangerous and there are Qingshan Army checkpoints, so it is not so easy to pass.
Wang Zhenwu suddenly raised a question at this time.
It was difficult for the army to move, so we sent hundreds of elite troops to sneak over.Chen Qichao's fingers hit the sketch hard, who would you like to take on this important task?
Wang Zhenwu, Zhen Monk Shang, Cao Yun, Wei Yunlong, Miao Lang, Ma Jiao and Ma Dongxian looked at each other, stood up one after another, and said in unison: I am willing to go!
Chen Qichao swept over their faces, thinking for a while in his heart and said: "The person who is surnamed Zhang is important, but the frontal attack is equally important. If we don't fight in front, Dai Shantian's attention will be difficult to attract us."Once the Qingshan Army faces us head-on, our number of troops will be at a disadvantage. If it is defeated, it will be useless even if the attack succeeds.Therefore, Dongxian, Ma Jiao and Wang Zhenwu must stay.
When everyone heard this, they nodded and said yes.Ma Dongxian, Ma Jiao and Wang Zhenwu are not inferior to others, but they are better at commanding the army.The army is really inseparable from them when it is unfolding in the front!
I plan to let the monk and Miao Lang serve as reserve teams to prevent Dai Shantian from escaping.Madongxian, you lead your personal soldiers to guard the Central Camp!Chen Qichao slowly stated the subsequent arrangements.
Zhenwu, Miaolang!
Chen Qichao called out the two of them by name, and held their hands solemnly and said: The key to the victory or defeat of this battle lies with you and the two of you. Please don’t have the expectations of defeating the soldiers!After the great victory, I would like to worship the first wine for you!
Wang Zhenwu looked calm, while Miao Lang grinned and said: Please don’t worry, my old Miao will definitely present his dog head to you!
Okay, you two mainly focus on the Hundred Martial Camp, and then select 300 elite soldiers, find a few spies who are familiar with the terrain path of Qingshan Town, and take action immediately!Chen Qichao nodded and said solemnly.
That night, the Meiling army at the foot of the mountain had dinner early, and then the whole army rested as soon as possible.
At around three o'clock in the morning, which is the most sleepy period of human beings, the Meiling Army was quietly awakened, and then smeared and ate dry food and breakfast in the quilt, and then quietly sorted out the soldiers.
At around four o'clock in the morning, the entire Meiling army gathered in the rain that began to become lighter, and began to set off in several parts.
Ma Jiao led more than 200 people in the Right Battalion, thinking that the vanguard was in the front, Wang Zhenwu led more than 200 people in the Left Battalion, followed closely behind, they were the main force of the front attack.
Wang Zhenwu led two hundred people in the reserve camp, lying on the flanks, and was at his fate.
The Chen Qichao and the Ma brothers led more than 500 people in the central camp to command, and Xia Yu served as the commander and followed.
Watching teams of soldiers carrying spears and carrying ring knives, quickly lined up out of the camp and set up a formation at the foot of the mountain, Xia Yu looked at Chen Qichao who was standing straight in the drizzle, and couldn't help but ask softly: Leader, why did you attack at this time?
Now is the time for people who have been sleeping soundly all night.Chen Qichao turned his head and replied with a smile. Seeing Xia Yu nodding with a little thought, he turned around and continued to look at his subordinates who were marching and setting up the formation.
go ahead!Ma Jiao, who was riding on the horse, saw that his subordinates were lined up in an order, waved his hand and ordered.
Chen Qichao looked at the general who was promoted when he was the commander of the secret camp, and his eyes were filled with relief.
Although Ma Jiao is not as good as Wang Zhenwu and Zhen’s martial arts, he is a good player in commanding the army and leading the army.
That's why Chen Qichao made Ma Jiao take on an extremely important forward position!
Amid the drums of the low-level non-commissioned officers, two hundred soldiers began to advance, and the neat footsteps seemed very powerful, but Ma Jiao knew that most of the recruits had not been training for a long time. Although they were walking neatly now, they just followed the rhythm of the veterans. I don’t know how effective it would be if they really fought?
In order to allow the new militia to adapt to life in the army as soon as possible, Chen Qichao, in addition to retaining a few purely elite troops, he invaded many veterans as backbone non-commissioned officers to train troops.
Soon the Mass Exchange Department came to the Dai family army camp at the foot of Qingshan Town. The guard guard at night finally found an abnormality and quickly shouted and beat the gong.
The Dai family army had thousands of people, and the military family was more. The small Qingshan Town could not accommodate so many people, so their camps were built to the foot of the mountain, facing the Meiling Army from afar.
Ma Jiao ignored the movements on the other side and raised his hand and ordered: Stop!
The entire army stopped as ordered. The sergeants in the front row squatted down, held their spears diagonally, and stepped on the tail of the spears leaning on the ground with their feet. The sergeants in the back also held their spears diagonally, crossed the shoulders of the sergeants in front, forming rows of spear formations like forests.
This is a spear formation that Chen Qichao and several generals have improved based on previous actual combat.
However, because most people are short in training and incomplete in equipment, they look like half-baked goods.
At this time, hundreds of people ran out of the formation. They braved the arrows that had begun to shoot out sparsely, ran to the Dai Family Army camp, threw out the rope cover, and then a few people pulled it hard and pulled down the not-so-reliable wooden fence.
When the open space came out, Ma Jiao pulled out the ring knife and roared: Kill!The whole army burst into a shout, and then everyone stood up with their spears and ran forward quickly.
