Chapter 801 Kong Rong "kills" Gongsun Kang! 【Ask for monthly ticket】
Ma Chao turned his face and looked at the end of the sea. There were indeed some black spots. He raised the telescope hanging around his neck and looked at it. He said with some uncertainty:
"It seems to be a ship... Is there a caravan in Qingzhou?"
He grew up in Liangzhou. Although he has spent a month or two at the beach recently, he still feels unfamiliar with the sea.
However, Kong Rong, who had been a prefect in Beihai for several years, responded faster:
"Ship? Are you sure it's a ship?"
He took Ma Chao's telescope and looked at it, with a panic on his face:
"It seems they are coming to attack us, Meng Qi, should we hide first..."
Before he finished speaking, Ma Chao's attention was attracted by the word "attack". He excitedly picked up the walkie-talkie and ordered:
"Intelligence team, use the drone to see if it is a warship coming from the sea!"
"The city defense camp began to inspect the city defense equipment, and took the prisoners working outside the city to the nearby gravel beach for strict supervision and confiscated their shoes to prevent them from escaping."
"First Cavalry Battalion, Second Cavalry Battalion, all assemble!"
After issuing orders one after another, Ma Chao realized that he was still wearing beach pants and casual shoes. He quickly got on his horse and prepared to go back to the county town and change into armor.
Before leaving, he saw that Kong Rong was a little panicked and couldn't help but said:
"Mr. Wen Ju, weren't you still talking about military achievements just now? Now, military achievements are coming in a boat!"
Kong Rong was originally worried about where to hide when the bandits came. When he heard Ma Chao's words, he calmed down and no longer panicked. Instead, he started gearing up excitedly:
"Meng Qi, if I can chop off the heads of one or two bandits later, will it be equivalent to going into battle to kill the enemy?"
Ma Chao nodded:
"That's for sure. As long as my Han people participate in killing the enemy, they will have military merit. If they kill a lot of people, they can even be granted the title of marquis."
Kong Rong is not leaving now. He is thinking of ways to create a marquis, even the lowest rank of Guannei Marquis. As long as he can get it, he will meet his friends such as Bing Yuan, Wang Lie, Chen Ji, Cai Yong, etc. Then you can show off your authority!
Dear friends, Kong Mou’s eyes are a little blurry. Come and help me take a look. Is the name written on my military merit book a Marquis?
Kong Rong shivered with excitement when he thought of this scene.
Our ancestors of the old Kong family were both civilized and martial. They could explain principles when opening a book and smash a dog's head when closing a book. Now, in my generation, Kong Wenju, we can finally reproduce the grace of our ancestors who were both civilized and martial!
Kong Rong was a typical scholar. Scholars tend to be impulsive when their brains are hot. He didn't care about swords and guns. He jumped on his horse happily and followed Ma Chao back to Huang County to change his armor, planning to get rid of his addiction to murder.
As soon as the two arrived in the city, Xun Yue, the newly appointed governor of Donglai, greeted them:
"Meng Qi, Wen Ju, there are countless ships coming to the sea, what should we do now?"
Xun Yue was Xun Yu's uncle and brother. He liked to talk about literature and classics, and he was also obsessed with the sea. When he heard that a dock was going to be built here, he volunteered to come to Donglai to be the prefect.
He didn't expect that on his first day in office, before he could go to the beach and feel the charm of Wen Hou's "Viewing the Sea", thieves would arrive across the sea.
Ma Chao said:
"Prefect Xun, don't panic. I have everything under control. The situation is urgent now. Please ask the prefect and the people to stay in the city and arrange the city defense. If necessary, some houses can be demolished to use as defense equipment. I will lead the cavalry to greet them on the beach and let them just Once you get off the boat, half of it will be lost!”
After identifying the enemy, Ma Chao immediately became mature.
Kong Rong put on a set of stab-proof clothes, a scribe's robe over it, and the cuffs were sealed with steel wristbands. He was now dressed as an elegant man who could defeat enemy chiefs with a sword while talking and laughing.
But before he could ask someone to take a photo, the sword in his hand was snatched away by Ma Chao:
"Mr. Wen Ju, if you want to follow me out of the city to fight, you must change your sword into a cavalry sword. That one is suitable for cutting from top to bottom. The scribe's sword is a ritual weapon and is not suitable for cutting."
If it's an eight-sided Han sword made of impact steel, it doesn't matter if you chop it occasionally.
But the scribe's sword used by Kong Rong, even though the hilt and scabbard were fancy, the blade was just a piece of iron... This thing was just a decoration for literati, and it had no lethality at all.
Now that we have to go out of the city to meet the enemy, we naturally have to put the scribe sword aside.
Ma Chao took off his cavalry sword and handed it to Kong Rong:
"This is the sword given to me by my husband. It is made of impact steel and can even chop skulls. I will give it to Duke Wenju today. I hope Duke Wenju can bravely kill the enemy and be granted the title of Marquis and Prime Minister!"
< br>
Kong Rong had been coveting the knife for a long time, but he didn't expect Meng Qi to bear the pain and give it up. He was so excited that he took it in his hands, wiped it with his sleeves, and then hung it on his waist.
After finishing his work, Kong Rong asked:
"Meng Qi, you gave me the knife, then what did you use it for?"
Ma Chao picked up his tiger head spear and got on his horse:
"I have a tiger-headed spear given to me by my husband. I can kill the enemy like a bamboo stick piercing tofu... Mr. Wen Ju, do you want to act with the cavalry?"
Kong Rong is now like a passionate young man:
"Go together, go together, brother Zhongyu, guard the city of Huang County, don't open the city gate easily, wait for news of our triumphant victory!"
After saying that, Kong Rong followed Ma Chao, rode all the way to the outside of the city, met up with the cavalry camp, and came to a forest by the sea, waiting quietly for the ships to approach.
At this time, the intelligence team also captured close-up footage of the ship.
When Ma Chao saw it, he was a little surprised and said:
"The flag on the ship is Gongsun. Are these people from Liaodong coming?"
The most famous Gongsun family today are the Gongsun family of Liaoxi, where Gongsun Zan, the right governor of Beiping, belongs, and the Gongsun Du family of Liaodong prefect, who has only emerged in recent years.
Gongsun Zan and Cheng Yu were hunting in the grassland, and now he is one of his own. It is impossible for him to attack Donglai, and even if he comes, he should not come from the direction of Liaodong.
Kong Rong looked at the picture from the drone and said with some surprise:
"Gongsun Du was able to live safely in Liaodong, mainly because of the mud barrier and inconvenience in conquest. But he came across the sea like this...could he want to get involved in the Central Plains?"
Lao Kong traveled all over the country and considered himself a man who had seen the world, but the fact that Gongsun Du was involved in the Central Plains was like a joke to him.
No matter how the princes of the Central Plains are arranged and combined, it is not your turn, Gongsun Du, to play around here.
Besides, the imperial court is now sweeping away the princes with the force of autumn wind sweeping away fallen leaves. The return of the Han Dynasty to unification is already a certainty. Gongsun Du is now sending troops. What the hell is this?
Is it really like what Meng Qi said, to give us military honors?
Not far away on the sea, Song Xian, dressed as a sailor, was busy polishing the spear in his hand.
On the first day he boarded the ship, he used candy as a bribe to get the position of team leader and became a junior officer in charge of a hundred people. Later, he took the initiative to give his dog-leg machete to the captain of the ship and obtained a leather suit. Armor and a spear said to be made of thousand-year-old cold iron.
Of course, the captain boasted that it was a thousand-year-old cold iron, but in Song Xian's eyes, it was just a crudely made iron gun, not worth the price of a dog-leg machete.
But when the battle is about to take place on the shore, a spear is much more practical than a dog-legged machete.
When the tip of the gun became sharp, Song Xian threw the polishing stone into the sea, and then secretly stuffed two candies into his mouth.
When we dock later, no matter whether there is a big battle or an attack, a lot of energy will be consumed, so eating two candies now will help your physical fitness.
While he was busy with this, Gongsun Kang, who was on the only high-rise ship in Liaodong, had a dog-leg machete hanging on his waist that had been tossed several times, and he was imagining the grand occasion of breaking through the Central Plains.
Looking at the coastline getting closer and closer, he turned around and said to his soldiers:
"Nowadays, the people of the Central Plains are in dire straits, the princes are fighting each other, and the people are in darkness. The only one who can save the Han Dynasty is me, the Gongsun family of Liaodong... Sirs, our opportunity has come to make contributions!"
After saying that, he took off the dog-leg machete hanging from his waist and raised it high above his head:
"This is a magic sword blessed by the gods. Whoever climbs to the top of the city of Huang County first, I will give this sword to him, along with 100,000 acres of fertile land and 50 girls from aristocratic families. Whatever you want Toss! ”
When the soldiers under his command heard this, they immediately let out a roar, took out their weapons, and kept patting their armor.
Seeing this scene, Song Xian couldn't help but shook his head:
"It's terrible to be uneducated. Fortunately, Hou Cheng, Cao Xing and the others are not here, otherwise they would have been assimilated by this guy. After all, brainless people will attract each other..."
Seeing the coastline getting closer and closer, Song Xian excused himself to pack his luggage and returned to the cabin. He dug out his small bag, took out the walkie-talkie and turned it on, then tuned to Ma Chao's exclusive channel 333, and gently pressed the call button:
"Call Digua, call Digua, I am handsome Song Xian!"
Soon, the signal light of the intercom flashed, and Ma Chao's voice came over:
"Brother Song Xian? Where are you? Why can you contact me?" "I'm on the boat, and I'm following Liaodong Gongsun Kang's army to attack Donglai County. Where are you? Hurry up and organize people to seize military glory. By the way, Get me out.”
In the woods, Ma Chao was a little confused:
"Aren't you in Youzhou? How come you got together with the Liaodong army?"
Song Xian's voice was slightly tired:
"The child has no mother. It's a long story. General Lu sent me as an envoy to Liaodong in order to paralyze them and convey the imperial court's intention not to attack Liaodong in the short term. As a result, I performed too well and instead gave away Gongsun's ambition for hegemony. I was so excited that they suddenly wanted to arrest me on the way back. I hid in a small fishing village, but was captured and followed the fleet to attack Liaodong County. "
After listening to this series of encounters, Ma Chao felt that Song Xian's life was exciting, and it was much more exciting than digging for crabs and sea intestines on the beach.
He said to Song Xian:
"I am leading the cavalry to ambush in the woods in front of your fleet. As soon as the Liaodong army gets off the boat, we will launch a charge...Which boat are you on? Let me explain to everyone to avoid accidentally hurting our own people."
< br>
"On the fourth boat from the north, I handed over my dog-leg machete and replaced it with a leather armor and a long spear. Please help me pay attention. That knife was given by the master and cannot be lost."
Ma Chao nodded:
"Don't worry, even if they throw it into the sea, I can help you find it."
As soon as the voice message was sent, Kong Rong couldn't help but ask:
"How can you find it if you throw it into the sea? This is not the small ditch in front of your house."
Ma Chao pointed in the direction of the sea:
This work is compiled and uploaded by Liujiu Book Bar~~
"Just pray to the gods and ask the Sea Dragon King to help deliver it. It's very simple."
This is not simple at all... Kong Rong wanted to say nothing about the strange power and chaos, but he was worried that there really was a dragon king in the sea. If he blamed himself, it would be the end.
After confirming Song Xian's ship, Ma Chao began to issue orders and told Song Xian's physical characteristics.
Not long after, the small boat began to dock, and the large ship docked one or two hundred meters away from the coast, sending people off to the shore through the small boat.
Kong Rong excitedly pulled out the cavalry sword from his waist and asked in a low voice:
"Meng Qi, can we start?"
Ma Chao said:
"Mr. Wen Ju, don't be impatient. Wait until these people pass that section of the beach before attacking... The sand is soft and they have been exposed to the sun for most of the day. It will take a lot of energy for them to walk from the shore. We will kill them when they get to the forest." When they come out, they either kill each other at the neck, or they step on the thick sand and return to the beach.”
After listening to Ma Chao's words, Kong Rong sighed:
"I often imagine that I am like what was written in the poem of Marquis Wen, killing one person in ten steps and leaving no trace for thousands of miles. However, when I fight with real swords and spears, I find that I am really useless and I don't know any of these skills."
Ma Chao smiled and said:
"Everyone has a first time. The first time I went to the battlefield, I fell off the horse's head because I used too much force."
Kong Rong asked:
"How old were you when you first went to war?"
"When I was twelve years old, I followed my father to quell the Qiang rebellion and killed more than twenty people. It was very satisfying."
Kong Rong sighed again:
"I am already thirty-nine this year, but I still only know how to talk on paper."
Ma Chao knew that Kong Rong was too nervous when he went to the battlefield for the first time. He would be excited and melancholy at times... The treatment for this problem is very simple, just wait until he sees more blood.
The two chatted for a while, and the people from Liaodong began to gather on the beach.
Many of them were obviously captured strong men. After riding on the boat for a few days, they suddenly touched the ground and could no longer stand. They knelt on the beach and refused to get up.
Some people are probably fishermen. When they get off the boat, they use the weapons distributed in their hands to dig and dig on the beach, looking for all kinds of small seafood.
It wasn't until a man in bright silver armor came over on a sickly horse that the chaotic crowd looked like an army.
Ma Chao watched this scene with a telescope, communicated with Song Xian, and confirmed that the man in bright silver armor was Gongsun Du's son Gongsun Kang, and he immediately became murderous:
“It’s okay for handsome people to wear bright silver armor, but you ugly guy also wears bright silver armor. Are you afraid that you won’t be noticed?”
He wanted to send you to see the King of Hell later, but when he noticed that Kong Rong was still worrying about gains and losses, he smiled and said:
"Gong Wenju, this Gongsun Kang is a great hero, so I will leave it to you to kill him, right?"
Kong Rong looked through the telescope, and his enthusiasm for book business gradually faded:
"This man's armor looks very strong, can my cavalry sword do it?"
"Don't worry, I will pick off his armor in advance, and you can just chop off his head... Let's make it clear first, if Gongsun Du hates you for this, or even sends people to hunt you down, it has nothing to do with me."
Kong Rong was still hesitant at first, but when he heard that Gongsun Du would hate him, his scholarly spirit took over again:
"How can he, a traitor and a traitor, have the right to bear grudge against me? Not only will I kill him later, I will also write an article about how he killed him, and then I will scold Gongsun Du and his whole family... He hates me. He probably doesn't know that I am Kong Wenju. Are you capable of swearing? ”
Kong Rong hesitated to kill Gongsun Kang alone.
But killing Gongsun Kang would make the Liaodong Gongsun family remember their hatred, that would be great!
After Gongsun Kang's army was assembled, Ma Chao also found Song Xian. This guy led his team and hid on the far left side, for fear of being noticed by Gongsun Kang.
Ma Chao also found the dog-leg machete hanging on Gongsun Kang's waist.
"Mr. Wen Ju, after the battle begins, I will rush over quickly and knock off Gongsun Kang's weapons and pull off his armor. The cavalry captain of the first battalion will follow and knock off Gongsun Kang's helmet. You will follow the captain of the first battalion and directly Cut off Gongsun Kang’s head.”
After determining the tactics, Ma Chao said to the intelligence team:
"Send a few more drones to take pictures of the Wenju public formation beheading Gongsun Kang to make it more beautiful. Maybe it can be displayed at Chang'an University in the future."
After the weak-handed Confucian scholar joined the imperial court, he suddenly became a fierce general who could kill enemy chieftains. In addition, Kong Rong was wearing a scribe's robe, and he would most likely become a role model for the Han literati in the future.
As long as we promote it later, nobles from all over the country will be enthusiastic about joining the army, which is definitely a good thing for the Han Dynasty.
Gongsun Kang was getting closer and closer, and Kong Rong's palms were full of sweat:
"Meng Qi, what are the two lines in the military song of Marquis Wen?"
"A man should be in a dangerous career, why should he let a scholar's crown ruin his life? What's more, the country is in danger, and the competition between feathers and feathers will never stop!"
Kong Rong gently patted the bush next to him:
"Yes, how can I, a great man, let a Confucian scholar miss my life? Meng Qi, I am ready and can go into battle to kill the enemy at any time!"
Ma Chao gave him a thumbs up:
"Ordinary Confucian scholars, facing an army of more than a thousand people, have already fought with two groups. Wen Jugong can talk and laugh at Yan Yan, which is really a role model for our generation."
When the distance was about the same, Ma Chao gave the order to charge through the intercom.
As soon as the order was given, the two cavalry battalions moved. Everyone fired a volley with the steel crossbows in their hands, and then rushed towards the Liaodong soldiers who had just crossed the beach.
Ma Chao took the lead and rushed towards Gongsun Kang who was stunned.
The Prince of Liaodong had never thought that there was an ambush on the shore. At this time, he was frightened by the sudden appearance of the ambush and froze in place at a loss.
Ma Chao ran over and swiped the tiger-headed spear, knocking the sword out of Gongsun Kang's hand. Then he thrust the spearhead into Gongsun Kang's shoulder and lifted it hard, and the bright silver armor of the coquettish suit was opened.
After doing this, Ma Chao rushed into the Liaodong army and began to charge. The captain of the first cavalry battalion followed closely and knocked off Gongsun Kang's helmet.
Gongsun Kang suffered two blows in a row, and then he came to his senses:
"Organize a counterattack, organize a counterattack quickly!"
While he was shouting at the top of his lungs, Kong Rong came up on horseback, raised his cavalry sword and swung it hard, and Gongsun Kang's head flew off his shoulders.
"What a knife!"
Kong Rong's face flushed with excitement. He had never expected that killing the enemy chieftain would be so smooth and smooth.
He looked at Ma Chao and felt that the child was getting more and more pleasing to his eyes. He couldn't help but hit Ma Chao and asked proactively:
"Meng Qi, you and I have gotten along quite well these days, and today you have given me another great gift... I would like to ask, are you married?"
