Episode 386

Donghuashan entered a short period of calm, but from the news of the Tanma report, officers and soldiers constantly mobilized troops around the perimeter, stationed heavy soldiers everywhere, built fortifications, and set up defense zones. Obviously, they were preparing to fight. Zhao Lunzi swayed between accepting Zhao An and breaking through to Jiangnan.

Yang Ling’s words, like a halberd, deeply poked at his vital point. After thinking about it, Zhao Maniac’s original revolt, even the ambition that had sprung up, vanished. His backbone is the Liu Liuyi faction, and Liu Liu’s behavior is not as ambitious as a person who can make a big difference?

However, since the main force in his own team tended to Liu Xiang, he could not cut off his connection with Liu Liu at all. Among the few roads, it seemed that the only option was to accept Zhao An. But are they willing to Xing Tiger and Feng Lei?

The night was dark, and the crickets were wearily weaving and weeping. Occasionally, fireflies were flying in the shadows of the trees, circling out the blurred halo. The red lady stared dreamily at Liuying, and her eyes were a little confused.

Li Hua ’s eyes are also a bit ‘blurred’, but with a fierce pair of thick eyebrows, they are a bit silly when they are blurred, but they do n’t have the beauty of Cui Yinger ’s eye-turning and charming eyes.

The Qiaotou negotiations ended safely, and he never knew anything was wrong. He knew that there was a problem with the third son. When he wanted to go back, he called him and asked him a question. . Li Hua panicked in his heart, and ordered his second brother Zhou Pan to quietly patrol the mountains and look around for his whereabouts, but now the next night, there is still no news.

He secretly observed the expressions of Xing Huo, Zhao Sui and others, and could not see the slightest difference. He should have no idea about it. Moreover, today’s deliberations still invite him as a leader. There was no scolding at all, nor did he seem to know that he was secretly doing things.

Li Hua couldn’t think of where to break his head, and he couldn’t think of where the third son had gone. Where can people go? It’s not like the skill of the youngest man who has hunted in the mountains since childhood, would he accidentally fall off the cliff by himself?

In addition, Yang Ling’s remarks also made Li Hua commit an audit: Liu Liu and Yang Hu’s group are not like a big deal, and they cannot follow them to Jiangnan, which is to find their own way. However, it is obvious that dismantling is impossible, and Xing Tiger and Zhao Maniac do not have a fuel-efficient lamp. If they want to go, Lao Tzu must find a way to slip away. Shanxi is full of mountains, and there is a place where I can be happy.

Zhao Sui looked at the two thoughtful people and frowned slightly. The Red Lady has listened to him about the matter of the Golden Eye Carving. Zhao Madman immediately asked her second brother Zhao Pan to dispose of the body with a few confidants, and strictly told the Red Lady not to tell the story.

If reconciliation fails, there will be a big battle. At this time, there must be no internal reconciliation, and disputes can only arise once again. What he didn’t understand was that at the moment of life and death, how could the Red Lady also be in a state of unwillingness? This is the famous Yang Xuanhu?

Zhao Fu shook his head. Looking at Xing Tiger again, Xing Tiger caressed his chest, coughing constantly, after a long time. He gasped and said: “Vice Marshal Zhao, so what do you think? Do you want to choose Zhaoan?”

Zhao Sui sincerely said: “No, leaving, working hard, or accepting Zhao An, is to find a way out for the brothers. Only those words are just my analysis, how to choose, I listen to you.”

Tiger Xing was silent for a while. Then he sighed softly: “Brother Zhao, you are a talent, you have a good family, and you have a spouse in your room. It was Brother Liu who dragged you into the team. Presumably, you were a bit reluctant at first, but … You are not weak, since you joined, you will have more trust in you. Let you lead the army alone. You proposed the division of troops and he did not hesitate. I … just ask you. We really have no hope? Liu Liuzhen Not worth your help? “

Zhao Sui looked to Xing Tiger, without a word for a while.

Xing Huo said: “Yang Ling’s words may make sense. I read some books, but I didn’t learn how to do it. I’m a rough man. I only know that if we really are so … so vulnerable, he’s a grandfather. , Why shouldn’t the depraved deserve to go to Zhongtiao Mountain to call for security?

Yes, Yang Hu was indeed defeated in Shandong, and more than half of the 100,000 troops were damaged, but the casualties of the officers and soldiers were minimal. However, the news was heard afterwards. It was said that the gunpowder exploded in the army, which caused the war horse to explode the camp, trample on each other, and countless casualties. , But it is not the merits of the officers and soldiers, otherwise, the outcome of the Shandong war will be unclear. With this battle, can you discuss success or failure, or heroes? “

He raised his eyebrows, although his face was sick, he still showed an arrogant boldness: “Since ancient times, he has become a hegemony, and there has been no smooth sailing. When they failed, there were hundreds of people around him, and finally it was not The reorganization of the Dongshan is back? I do n’t believe that there are 50,000 elite soldiers on Donghua Mountain, and Liu Liu and Yang Hu also have 50,000 or 60,000 people in Jiangnan. It will be as unbearable as Yang Ling said! “

Zhao Sui closed his eyes and sighed secretly in his heart: Tiger Xing still seems to insist on seeing, so he just wants to reconcile!

He opened his eyes suddenly and said in a deep voice: “So, should the Grand Marshal stick to Zhongtiao Mountain, or should he break through the south and take the Central Plains?”

Xing Tiger said: “You are right, our 50,000 soldiers and horses, if guarded according to natural danger, officers and soldiers may not be able to attack, but natural danger can help us, Tianwei can also kill us. The most feared thing is winter, we are now grain Insufficient, if Yang Ling seals the mountain, we will die more than one-third from the cold and starvation this winter, then the remaining landlords do n’t have to fight anymore, they can only be restrained, so they can only keep their lives for a while, but in fact they are dead. One. “

Xing Huo said such a long sentence in one breath, and he breathed a few hard breaths: “When Xing Huo and Liu Liu and Liu Qi were righteous, they once said that they could not be born on the same month and the same year, but they begged to die on the same month and the same year. I turned to Jiangnan, but I turned to the government for the sake of wearing a black gauze on my head. I couldn’t do such a thing.

So I decided to go to Jiangnan and vow to die with good brothers. So Jiangshan will be named Zhu? Hey! I believe it! Old Zhao, since joining the rebel army, you have tried your best to make the whole army, Wu Xing, I see Tiger in my eyes and keep in mind. Your two brothers left intentionally. I heard about this.

Well, I will be the master of the old Liu. Brother Zhao, you have to leave. You can take your gold and silver to leave softly. I will send someone to leave the mountain to stay free, and never stop. Everyone has their own ambitions. But you must not take away one army and one army to disturb our army. How are you willing? “

Zhao Sui said: “Since following the robbing of horse robbers, attacking the city and looting the ground, smashing prisoners and releasing prisoners, punishing corrupt officials, and killing gentry, which one is missing me? It is not a big joke to take a soldier and a soldier to accept Zhao An. What? The court wanted me to use it? Will he spare me? “

Xing Huo said: “I have never been ill since I was healthy. But this disease has never been good. I haven’t done much to fight in the march. This marshal is really not true, and you command the team. When I came, I was always one layer behind. Brother Zhao only learned ten times better than me, but he couldn’t show it. This is mine.

If Brother Zhao is still willing to follow us, I am willing to give up the rank of marshal. Our team, work together and follow your instructions. As for who is the emperor, ha! The character hasn’t been written yet, what do he care about? The eldest husband worked vigorously on his mother, first overthrowing Zhu tomorrow, and then discussing with him. If you have the skills, then you will do it. Anyway, I am indisputably, what do you think? “

Zhao Sui’s heart was hot, and the blood in his chest suddenly turned. Needless to speculate about the sincerity of Tiger Xing’s words, he clearly knew that this was the best time to seize military power. Don’t look at the boldness of Xing Tiger’s words, but he was born as a stolen horse robber. If he really chooses to leave Zhongtiaoshan to take refuge in the government, he wouldn’t blame his face if he cut his head.

However, the situation is pressing. If you choose to stay. In exchange, he currently had to hand over his military power. As for whether Jiangnan will be annexed by Yang Hu and others when they arrive, now I have no idea what to do, and I have no choice. When I arrive at Jiangnan, I will say, as long as I lay down my mind, I would n’t be able to fight against those mud legs?

Thinking of this, Zhao Fang clenched his teeth and said with a loud voice: “Brother Xing, don’t say it, shame brother. The good horse doesn’t eat the grass, and now he enters this way, and I don’t want to look back one day. You can do whatever you say, only Brother Xing is here, you will always be my brother. “

“Good brother!” Xing Tiger’s excited face flushed. He stood up and supported Zhao Sui’s shoulders, saying, “Then our brothers hit the Yellow River side by side, and Bingfeng pointed directly at Jiangnan. He turned him upside down and waited. Liu Liu and Yang Hu converge, let’s discuss where to occupy, Xu Tu develops, and fight for the world! “

“If you have selfishness, don’t blame me Xing Huo for turning his face ruthlessly, as soon as he crosses the Yellow River, I will kill you immediately!” Xing Huo sneered secretly, but his face was generous, and the two “good brothers” were excited Hold together, then they turned to Hong Niangzi and Li Hua together.

“Sister Cui, Brother Li, what do you think?”

“Vice-Marshal Cui, General Li, what do you think?”

“…”

“Red lady?”

“Ah? Well, well, I agree. Just do it!”

“Ah! Brother, I didn’t say anything. Master Xing, why don’t you say it? Let’s do it. I, Li Hua, went up the sword and down the fire, without frowning. Let’s just do it! Er … Brother Xing, what are you talking about?”

“…”

Qincha Xingyuan moved from Puzhou City to the military camp at the foot of Donghua Mountain.

Tomorrow is the three-day period. If Zhao Maniac does not reply again, the officers and men will launch an offensive. Even if they cannot defeat the Zhongtiaoshan thieves at least, they must at least attack some of the outer hills in order to attack the mountain or the next step. The second step offensive lays a good foundation.

If the battle of Zhongtiao Mountain cannot be resolved quickly, it will have to dispatch troops, consume countless amounts of money, and trap them alive here. The Jiangnan battlefield was deployed according to other places. Officers and soldiers from various provinces and counties were fortifying and stepping up, gradually narrowing the encircling circle, intending to force Yang Hu ’s white army into the dead and force him to face a decisive battle. Under that communication condition. The fighter plane is changing rapidly, and he can’t give orders from far away in Shanxi, where he needs to go to the center to coordinate and command.

The tent is high and the tent is brightly lit. Yang Ling and Miao Kui and others were deploying a full-scale offensive after the failure to recruit. Yang Ling took the baton and Xu Tai was holding an oil lamp to take a close look. From afar, someone shouted: “Report ~~~ Urgent military situation!”

With the sound of the horseshoes, a red soldier with a leather jacket flew behind the shoulders with an urgent news, and the red flag flew from the horse to the tent. The man hurried to the big tent and was immediately stopped by several personal soldiers. . After a moment, the identity of the man was verified, and the four personal soldiers brought him in.

When the man saw Yang Ling, he bowed his head and said anxiously, “Grandpa Qiqiang. The Dongtiaoshan bandits broke through from the southeast.”

Yang Ling moved and said: “Breakthrough? How many people?”

The news soldier said: “Escaped more than 400 people, all brave and combative. They took advantage of the night to copy the path and rushed out. After escaping from the siege, they first fled to Sanchakou, and then fled to the Yellow River along the lines of Yanggan and Yangzu. Wei has sent Sun Qianhu to lead troops to catch up. “

“There are only more than four hundred people?” Yang Ling was a little surprised. If Zhao Sui did not want to accept the solicitation, he would naturally be able to break through before the army, but he only sent four hundred people to break through the path. what is this? Is it a suspect? “

Xu Tai hurried back to the case and looked down at the map, suspiciously saying: “They fled towards the Yellow River, would they have to cross the Henan?”

Miao Kui pointedly said: “Duke Guo, it seems that Zhao Sui did not want to eat toasts. They walked along Yanggan and Yangzu, they must attack Fenglingdu and flee to Shaanxi or Henan from there.”

Yang Ling sighed, thinking for a moment and asked, “Apart from these four hundred people, are there any other people on the mountain going down?”

The signal soldier shook his head and said, “Only these four hundred people broke through. There was no more movement.”

Jiang Bin walked forward boldly: “Duke Guo, according to his humble opinion, this man might have been a casual soldier who escaped unsuccessfully. Otherwise, what was his intention to send such a lone army? Seize the ferry and cover the army Cross the river? “

Yang Ling shook his head solemnly and said, “If a timid soldier flees in private without such a strong combat power, once he highlights the encirclement, he will inevitably flee from each other, and he will not act in such an organized manner at the same time. Such a lone army. There must be a purpose. “

Jiang Bin touched his chin and said, “Guogong. I have an idea. They can send a small group of horses to avoid our army’s eyes and ears. By copying the small path to break through, then we can also send a small group of horses to climb up the mountain and kill them. In the hinterland, Donghua Mountain is about 300 miles away. There must be a mountain on the road. How many of them can take care of it? Guo Gong might as well give me a team of horses. I committed suicide to Yuzhufeng. “

Yang Ling snorted: “There are fifty thousand people on the mountain, not five hundred people. They sent four hundred people to break through. What are you going to do with hundreds of people? Are they shortlisted? It ’s extremely big and ca n’t echo with you at all. You lead an lone army into the encirclement. If you can get martial arts again, you have to be eaten by them all. What is the benefit of acting with our army? “

Jiang Bin was speechless, Yang Ling pondered, and said decisively: “Submit the order, and all the people will immediately attack the mountain according to the original plan! Since Zhao crazy sent troops to break through, it is impossible to recruit, and we don’t have to wait for tomorrow.”

Xu Tai asked: “Duke Guo, will this lone army who escapes northwest along the river send someone to chase and intercept?”

Yang Ling shook his head and said: “There are four hundred people in the area. It is enough for Sun Qianhu to chase soldiers along the way. Fenglingdu and Pujindu are all heavily guarded, and once the river passes through Tongguan, there is a large army gathered. It is self-seeking. We have concentrated our forces to eliminate Donghua Mountain’s stolen horse robberies. From now on, we will try our best to seize the strongholds of the mountains. The ferries along the south foot of the river are all on alert and have been prevented from being used by the enemy. “

“Comply with the order!” Xu Tai and Jiang Bin folded their hands together and hurried out.

The drums roared, and the battle of Zhongtiao Mountain finally started. The shouts continued throughout the night, and fire broke out one after another in a radius of 300 miles, and escaped out of the small mountain of horses. It became the fuse of the battle. The officers and soldiers began to attack the mountain as planned.

A battle report was sent to Yangling ’s Chinese army. The flags on the sand table alternated with red flags and blue flags. It was a dangerous situation. It was caused by the constant change of hands in the fate of officers and soldiers .

Peripheral attacks continue to gain and lose, and some hills have been firmly controlled by officers and men. This attack speed is somewhat beyond Yang Ling’s expectations. He frowned and stared at the sand table for a long while. Yang Ling pointed to several places and said: “These canyons must pass through the commanding heights before they can enter the narrow areas. The progress is too fast now.”

Miao Kui said happily: “Hey, I think our army is encircled, so that the thieves and the Koujun have lost their hearts, and the various troops are making rapid progress.”

Yang Lingning looked at that one after another and plugged in the red flag mountains. Still wondering: “It’s too fast, the progress is too fast, all the generals are too greedy. Once they seized the hill, they immediately rushed in, and the position was not stable. They had to order them to fight steadily and be careful, Zhao Zhao will counterattack.”

Xu Tai shook his head and said: “Guogong, it’s too late. It’s just plain. I don’t know how long it will take to convey this order again. Now the enemy forces in the mountains are intertwined, and blood is fighting everywhere. The battle is on. The frontier generals are expected to fight. We played on our own, and we simply could not give orders and dispatched at any time. “

Yang Ling sighed, pacing back and forth nervously in the tent: really overestimated his opponent? Or did the solicitation and differentiation play such a big role? The hills of all roads are paved with blood, and the fierce fighting is absolutely not false. The ringing horse thief does not seem to deliberately give up the position to lure me in.

And I ’m really worried that the enemy ’s ambush will be impossible. The mountains and valleys of Donghua Mountain are criss-crossing, the ravines are ups and downs, and it is easy to ambush people. It is difficult to mobilize people to form an attack formation. Besides, the imperial army assaulted from all directions at the same time. As a result, Xiang Majun wants to concentrate his troops to eat all the way.

Jiang Bin was happy to see the battle and was eager to try. Anxiously said: “When Guo Gong arrives, Xiang Ma steals people’s hearts apart, and this Hui Gong has mobilized a large number of troops from Shanxi to fight from all sides at the same time. Xiang Ma Thieves’ fighting power is quite different from the previous times. They do n’t have any tricks to play anymore. The Duke gave me soldiers all the way, let me go into the mountains and let out this bad breath. “

Yang Ling smiled. Said: “There is no need to hurry. You can fight the battle. You and the General Xu can’t move. In the mountains. It is impossible to wipe them out. Zhao Maniac will break through if he sees a bad situation …”.

He said here, his pupils tightened suddenly: “Breakout … Breakout … Does Zhao Lunzi even want to break out of a fight?”

Yang Ling turned back immediately, staring at the sand table for a while, and said slowly, “Don’t you, Zhao Lunzi don’t want to continue trying to defend the mountain, but decisively give up this natural danger and break through?”

Miao Kui doubted: “They have been guarding and retreating. Why would they want to break through and send a small group of horses to alert the officers and men to urge our army to attack? It is not easier to concentrate the men and horses and unexpectedly choose a little to kill the encirclement. ? “

Yang Linggan smiled and said: “It is easy to kill the encirclement like that, but it is also easy to chase and intercept the army of the imperial courts. It is easy to lose the Dongshan Huatian Insurance. How can they resist my more than one hundred thousand army?

What if Zhao Maniac decides to break through from the start, but confuses my eyes and ears with a defensive power and lures my army into the mountains? After taking the initiative to break through, picking up before leaving, and attracting the soldiers into the mountain, he gave up the dangerous stronghold and jumped out of the heavy fence to escape from Yaoyao. The various armies should get news, rectify the army, and then withdraw from the mountain. Act fast? “

“Good Zhao crazy!” Xu Tai breathed a sigh of relief: “From the past few battles, I also think that the fighting power of the horse thief should not be so that my army can succeed. The analysis of the Dagong is good, I also think This can be huge. “

Yang Ling’s eyes flickered, and he patrolled the entire sand table: “Then … they should have a secret passage that allows the army to pass through, so that they can quickly jump out of the enclosing circle that gathers in the mountains, and use the outside space to take advantage of the empty space. Which direction do you choose? “

He and Xu Tai’s eyes moved towards the Yellow River on the sand table.

Since the beginning of Feiling crossing, the lower reaches of the Yellow River have narrowed, so there are so many ferry docks in this large area. What does it mean that the small group of troops Zhao Zhao took the lead to go down Henan? If Zhao Maniac was really ingenious, led the army into the mountain and then jumped out of the encirclement, then it is self-evident that he should choose the Yellow River ferry to cross the Yellow River.

This should also be his only choice. Hebei and Henan Chen Chongbing are at the border, cities in Shanxi are closed and guarding themselves, and the army is gathered in Donghua Mountain. If you are on a dry road, there is a way to live when the officers and soldiers are chasing and blocking?

Yang Ling straightened up, looked at Xu Tai, and nodded slightly.

Xu Sen’s offensive on this road was slow. Seeing the fire on other hills, it was clear that the army was progressing rapidly, and Xu Sen would be anxious. The promotion of a general to a military commander can never be faster than the achievement of war. This time, Wei Guogong personally commanded the battle. If this battle was fought beautifully, it would be a promising future. But now he obviously lags behind other officers and soldiers.

Xu Shen will stand on a rock with a single knife and point to the jungle in front of the Mizhaza ground: “Put the rocket, shit, I must take it down. Liu Qianhu, bow and arrow cover. Punch me again “.

The generals of the two men had not yet answered their words, and suddenly there was a wind blowing in the night sky, and the night sky was deep, but the sky suddenly dimmed, or it immediately made people aware of what happened. Xu Sen will be horrified. He quickly jumped off the stone and evaded, shouting, “Shieldman … ah!”

A eagle carved his shoulder, and the chain of the chain mail prevented the arrow clusters from going deeper, but still shot his skin. Thousands of feather arrows fell with a whisper of wind. Sweeping his unpredictable life, a scream of screaming came out.

Xu Shen would not have expected that there were so many archers on this ringing horse before he had charged for three rounds. He never saw the other party exposed such strength. He was frightened and angry. He pulled out the arrow and was about to make the officers and soldiers fight back. The forest in front of him suddenly shouted the sound of killing, taking advantage of the mountain. Countless men and women rushed out of the jungle and charged towards his troops.

“Woo!” Even though he had just been attacked by the arrow rain, the archer who emerged from behind the shield still responded very quickly, and Qianyudian cold star rushed to the murderous cry in the dark. The ringing horse robber held the wooden shield and only heard the sound of “Tuk Tuk”. The brigade stalled for a moment, some people fell with arrows, but others rushed forward at a faster speed.

Behind them. There are also constant launches of arrows and rain. Pour over them and pour on the Ming position. Closer, closer. Xu Shen will scream with a narrow blade, leading the soldiers to rush up.

Although his shoulder was injured, he held the knife in both hands and chopped left and right, like a wolf, and he was cut by a few stolen horses instantly. Wave after wave of thieves rushed in fearlessly, the officers and soldiers also grabbed the swords and shouted and greeted them up. The people and horses on both sides collided like giant waves on the seashore, and the waves rolled and the blood flowed like springs.

The first batch of soldiers and robbers who collided head-on fell, and the second and second batches rushed over their bodies without hesitation, and countless soldiers screamed towards death, seeking life. The **** smell permeated the valley.

The enemy had too much strength in this valley entrance, Xu Sen would kill his arm sore, he staggered two steps under the **** of his soldiers, wiped the sweat and blood on his face, he noticed that his own horse The position has been chaotic, hastily changed into three lines of defense formed by the defense, the first line has been broken, the second line where he is is in a fierce battle, and the enemy is getting more and more courageous, the more and more wars are approaching the third line of defense .

Everyone is attacking the mountain with all their strength. It is impossible for someone to come to support him, and it is too late to come over the mountain and cross the mountains to help. Xu Sen will gritt his teeth and is about to order the reserve team to all fight. A gong sounds in the night sky and the forest is ahead There was a shouting shout again, the bandits who were violently hacking heard the gongs and the battle retreated, and gradually let way, another force rushed over, like chopping vegetables and chopping melons. The exhausted, slow-moving officers and soldiers piled up.

Xu Shen will cry without tears: how is this possible? Zhao Maniac only has 50,000 soldiers and horses, and the defense of the gully mountains is in all directions. There will never be a team of more than 2,000 people in each place. How could they arrange so many people at this Gukou?

The dead trees and clumps of grass ignited by the rocket reflected a large flag that had just emerged from the forest. A large black character reflected in Xu Sen’s eyes, and he was startled. His army progressed slowly, and he still wandered around Donghua Mountain. However, a big Xing character was raised in front of the flag, which really shocked him.

Everyone knows that the leader of the ring horse army of Zhongtiao Mountain is Tiger Xing, but this man has been ill shortly after starting his army. This rebel team has always been commanded by Zhao Madman. Today is really evil. The sick tiger came out of the mountain and rushed. Here, they … they are about to break through. And selectively break through. It’s my defense zone!

This idea flashed across his mind like electric flint. But it was too late, Tiger Xing, who was sick and led the army, personally led the elite who was brought out of Bazhou and repeatedly killed, and the waves of Taosha survived, rushing to destroy all the crazy offensive …

When Yang Ling got the news, General Xu’s defense line was broken, and General Xu’s and Liu Qianhu were killed in battle. Yan Qianhu led only three hundred soldiers to escape his life. The local people who came to report the news brought accurate information. Xing Tiger personally led the team, and about 15,000 people stood around to take the Fei Lingdu straight. What they chose was actually the first ferry with the toughest defense and the hardest to break.

Jiang Bin was instructed to rush to Feiling to support the Ministry, and Miao Kui said anxiously: “Guogong. The soldiers in the mountains were too late to withdraw. They should transfer all the second-tier defensive troops on the outside to Feilingdu. The people are dead there and they will be wiped out in one battle. “

Yang Ling sat in his chair. After a long moment of contemplation, he took a long breath and slowly said, “What about Zhao Madman? What about the Red Lady? Who can tell me, where are they … now? Are they in the army of Xing Tiger or still in Zhongtiao Mountain?”
