Chapter 748: Burning 30,000 soldiers

(Girls' Literature)

"Tang Bing is in front, catch up and kill clean, no one will be left!"

Zhong Ruhai made up his mind, in a battle tonight, only beheading the level and leaving no living mouth, this battle is based on the head of the merit, which can block the mouths of some people for Yin Ziqi.

Although the Yan soldiers had been fighting hard for a whole day, they saw that the great achievement was about to be completed, and they suddenly burst out with amazing combat effectiveness and swarmed up. This time, Zhong Ruhai still intends to concoct the same method, the front of the Shenwu Army is extremely difficult to break, but if he can go around its flanks and rear flanks, he can defeat it with the advantage of flanking and flanking.

Zhong Ruhai did not personally lead his personal guard cavalry to outflank the rear wing, but sent a thousand cavalry up. Before the cavalry detoured back to the flank of the Shenwu Army, the foot soldiers only made a feint on the front.

Soon, the Horse Ranger brought back the news that this Shenwu army was only about 2,000 people, and it should only be after they stayed. Zhong Ruhai knew even more in his heart, if this was not the last stubborn resistance of the Shenwu army, or their main general was timid and afraid of death, and fought for his own chance to survive at the cost of sacrificing the lives of his subordinates.

Having come to this conclusion, Zhong Ruhai pursed his lips, how could the Tang soldiers be undefeated if they had such a main general? In this way, he didn't think much about it, and ordered the army to quickly press up, and solve the Tang soldiers blocking the front as quickly as possible, and then chase after the Tang soldiers who continued to flee and kill these people completely. He really wanted to catch the stupid commander and ask how he had come up with such a mess!

At the beginning of the battle between the two armies, everything was similar to the state on the pass, and the Tang soldiers, known as the Shenwu Army, maintained a high combat effectiveness, and as long as the Yan soldiers rushed fiercely, the casualties on both sides immediately increased greatly.

Therefore, it is very necessary to wait for the cavalry to be outflanked by the flanks and flanks, but Zhong Ruhai waited for nearly half an hour, and still did not see any signs of complete chaos in this Shenwu army blocked in front.

After waiting for about half an hour, the remnants of the cavalry fled back one after another, and the original cavalry was ambushed by the other side and plunged headlong into the pockets that the Shenwu army had already opened, and was beaten in a mess, and only three or four out of ten could escape.

Zhong Ruhai was shocked and angry, he couldn't imagine that the trapped beasts of the Shenwu Army still had such a high will to fight, and even had extra energy to ambush the Yan soldiers halfway.

"A bunch of waste! can't even defeat the fleeing defeated soldiers, what face is there to live in the world?"

He scolded his subordinates for not leaving any affection at all, and he couldn't wait to slaughter these people one by one to get rid of the hatred in his heart.

However, after all, Zhong Ruhai is a person who is accustomed to seeing strong winds and waves, and there are not a few cases where he was defeated when he fought against the Khitans in the north, and today is just a small loss, what is it worth? What's more, Yin Ziqi has great trust in him and handed over 30,000 elites to him.

The cavalry pressed all over and attacked the flank of the Tang soldiers!

Zhong Ruhai believes that if the same trick is used twice, it will not work. The first time the Shenwu Army took the sudden lead, and now he sent thousands of cavalry to swagger over, what other way could the other party turn the sky upside down.

"The Tang soldiers withdrew, and they withdrew ......"

Taking advantage of the slight stagnation of the Yan soldiers' attack, the Shenwu army formation blocked in front actually quickly turned into a column and began to retreat.

"The whole army obeys the ......"

Zhong Ruhai wanted to order the cavalry to catch up with him, but when the words came to his lips, his thoughts turned around, and he felt that there were too many tricks of the Shenwu Army, and if he rushed up in case he fell for the tricks again, it would be troublesome, so it was better to follow steadily behind. Anyway, these remnants of the Shenwu Army can't give birth to wings, and it will be difficult to escape.

After holding this thought, Zhong Ruhai was not in a hurry to plan to annihilate the nearly 10,000 Shenwu army, but only followed behind, looking for an opportunity to besiege.

After the Shenwu army successfully counterattacked, they no longer fell in love with the stack, but quickly turned to the old horse slope in the west, and Zhong Ruhai also followed closely to catch up.

The terrain of Laomapo has been much wider than the previous battlefield, and there is already a faint plain posture, but here used to be mostly the wetland quagmire left after the Yellow River burst, and under the great drought and no rain, the water dried up completely, leaving only patches of dry yellow reeds. In the south of the reeds, there is another high slope, and the east-west direction extends for dozens of miles to the suburbs of Luoyang, and the mulberry forest is dense on it.

In Zhong Ruhai's opinion, this kind of unremarkable terrain is extremely stable, and he can finally breathe a sigh of relief when he gets out of those passes and mountain passes. At this glance, you can see a place of miles or even tens of miles, even if the Shenwu Army is cunning, what tricks can it play?

Thinking of this, Zhong Ruhai led the army to chase after him boldly. It is estimated that there will be one more hour before dawn, and as long as the sky is bright, it will be the time when all this Shenwu army will be destroyed.

However, Zhong Ruhai immediately found another trouble, they chased them into the dry reeds of Lao Ma Po, although their vision was wide, they lost their mobility, and the withered grass more than half a person tall stuck to them like a pool of mud. It's just that the speed of the Shenwu Army's retreat has gradually slowed down.

After chasing for half an hour, there was no progress, but fortunately, Zhong Ruhai was on a horse, and the dry grass had a limited impact on him, but seeing that the Tang soldiers in front of him were walking faster and faster, his own Yan soldiers were annoyed by the dry grass, and his heart became more and more irritable, and he secretly swore that he would burn this withered reed clean after the end of this battle in the future.

This idea just popped out of his mind, and Zhong Ruhai was shocked into a cold sweat.

Boom! Boom!

He was not allowed to think about it, the explosions continued one after another, and many of the Yan soldiers had already seen the power of this kind of thing the night before, and they were still frightened into a riot at this time. Some people have seen it with their own eyes, and some people have heard rumors, this kind of weapon that makes a loud noise, but there is no broken bone and tendon when it comes into contact with it. Not only that, but the people he met did not have the strength to fight back.

"Don't panic, Tang Bing can't last long, if you persist for a while, you will be safe!"

In fact, Zhong Ruhai had no bottom in his heart, but he had to appease the army so much. Sure enough, his words quickly had an effect, and as word of mouth spread, the Yan soldiers trapped in the dry reeds gradually settled down.

"Smoke, smell of smoke......"

A wave has not settled, and a wave has risen, and the smell of smoke wafts from nowhere in the dry reeds.

I don't know which one shouted first.

"Look at the west, there's a fire!"

Zhong Ruhai's heart was suddenly shocked, and he followed the prestige, and sure enough, there was a fire looming several miles away. However, after the fire was discovered, the fire in the distance spread rapidly at a speed that could be seen by the naked eye, and it was already a piece in the blink of an eye. Knowing that this kind of wildfire would spread extremely quickly if it became a trend, he resolutely ordered the whole army to march eastward, and he must dare to break away from the dry reeds before that.

However, as soon as the order was issued, and before it reached the whole army, some people discovered that there was a fire in the east, and it burned at an astonishing speed. This clock was half as cold as the heart of the sea, and by the light of the fire in the distance, he suddenly found that there was no dead grass on the old horse slope in the south, and ordered the whole army to march to the old horse slope.

The Yan soldiers did not do what they wanted, they were blocked by the arrows like spring feathers, and after a few rounds, they were forced back.

At this point, Zhong Ruhai knew in his heart that he had fallen for Tang Bing's tricks again. He only hated himself for letting his guard down, but in such an open place, who would have thought that Tang Bing would dare to risk setting up an ambush here. Unwillingly, the Yan soldiers launched another round of fierce assault on Lao Ma Po, and for some reason there was a burst and explosion under their feet, and a large number of foot soldiers flew with flesh and blood, and their limbs and arms were broken.

Helpless, Zhong Ruhai made a decision immediately, and ordered to turn towards the south without fire.

Although he knew very well in his heart, since Tang Bing had the intention to set up an ambush here, how could he leave such an obvious loophole? However, Zhong Ruhai had no choice now, even if he knew that there might still be a dangerous situation ahead, it was much better than not being able to do anything.

About a stone's throw away, the south side of the withered reeds was lit up without accident.

Zhong Ruhai was desperate, and the people trapped with him were not hundreds, thousands, but 30,000 people, accounting for sixty percent of the elite of this western expedition. He hated himself for having sent the gods to lead people deep into the reeds, and the fire, though miles away from them, still illuminated the whole sky, and the earth became hotter and hotter with the scorching.

Perhaps it is desperation that gives rise to a strong desire to survive. The trapped Yan soldiers set their sights on Lao Ma Po again, only there was no fire here.

Who knew that just as he was about to rush again, the old horse burst into flames on the slope.

Pei Si, who was covered in injuries, stood on the high place of Lao Ma Po, overlooking the grand scene in the distance with a complicated expression.

At this time, the withered reeds had burned into a piece, and at the same time spread rapidly to the surrounding and inner sides to form a magnificent sea of fire, which looked like a cloth bag gradually closing its mouth, tightening more and more, and those rebels who had been showing off their might a moment ago were in pain, screaming and screaming in pain.

After a long time, Pei Si closed his eyes, he knew that these people were going to die, and they were going to die very miserably. But he, he didn't have pity for these damned rebels. His heartache was that for the sake of this magnificent sea of fire, nearly 5,000 soldiers under his command gave their lives.

Although it is a common sense to speculate that exchanging 5,000 for 30,000 is definitely a big victory, Pei Si can't be happy no matter what, and even has a faint resentment and anger in his heart.

The initiator of all this, Yang Xing was standing less than ten steps away from Pei Si, only to see that he retracted his gaze with satisfaction, walked over slowly, and sighed lightly.

"Erlang, I've wronged you!"

Pei Si was speechless when he heard this, and only felt that there were hot tears flowing down his face.

After a long time, Pei Si finally collected his mood and asked:

"Since the general has a plan, why don't you tell him directly?"

Regarding the question with Pei Si, Yang Xingben only replied lightly.

"If Erlang knows the inside story, how can it be realistic? If it is not realistic, how can the treacherous traitor be ambushed......
