Chapter 241: Ambush in Meridian Valley (1)
That night, the cold moon hung high, and the silence around it was as deathly as death, and there was nothing but the sound of wolves howling and ghosts crying.
At the time of the third watch, the death-like silence was broken by a shout of killing that rushed into the sky.
Originally, it was the Qingfeng Battalion that was stationed at the north gate, and according to the original plan, they should have disarmed at the third watch and moved towards the other three gates to make way for them.
Unexpectedly, at this time, the rebels in the city suddenly launched an attack, trying to escape in vain.
The commander of the Qingfeng battalion was Zheng Feng, and when he sensed the enemy's intentions, he immediately returned to the army to block it.
In an instant, the bloody battle between the two sides is already a line of life and death!
"General Zheng, the rebel offensive is too fierce, and the number is nearly ten times ours, the brothers are about to be unable to stop it, what should we do now?" A soldier hurried to the road.
Zheng Feng gritted his teeth vigorously and shouted angrily: "What about the reinforcements, haven't they come yet?" ”
The soldier shook his head and responded: "The other three gates are also caught in the melee, and there are no reinforcements to support for the time being." ”
"And what instructions does the general have?"
The pro-soldier replied urgently; "The herald sent out has not yet returned."
Hearing this, Zheng Feng scolded: "Grandma's bear, defend it to me, don't let go of a rebel to break through, and wait for the general's order!" ”
However, before Zheng Feng's shout fell, the herald hurriedly ran over and said:
"The general has an order, order your troops to open a gap, let the rebels break through, and then follow and kill!"
Zheng Feng took the order flag and responded respectfully: "Go back and report to the general, I will definitely complete the task." ”
At the same time, He Xiaomei also received a military order from Lin Feng.
"The general has an order, ordering your troops to storm Qinshui City. Be sure to occupy Qinshui City before dawn. ”
He Xiaomei's beast battalion had already begun to sharpen its knives, so after hearing Lin Feng's military order, he was very excited, and immediately reorganized the beast army and pounced on the east city gate.
In this way, with the east gate as the main direction of attack, the west gate and the south gate as the direction of feint attack, for the attack on Qinshui City, it started in advance.
Because the north gate was opened, the rebels in the city did not have much fighting spirit. However, after a few face-to-face confrontations, they were completely defeated, and they all collapsed in the direction of the north gate.
After the east gate of Qinshui City was breached, the south gate and the west gate were also breached one after another.
According to Lin Feng's previous order, He Xiaomei led the beast battalion and swept away the rebels in Qinshui City.
Xue Yong and Yan Yun's subordinates led their headquarters to besiege the rebels who fled from the north gate from the left and right directions.
When the day was bright, Qin Shuicheng completely changed hands.
Originally, the 200,000 troops inside, except for more than 10,000 remnants of the defeated general who broke out of the encirclement and fled in the direction of Longyang County, the remaining 100,000 rebels either surrendered on the spot or were killed on the spot.
Ba Shanhe looked at his Ba family, Qinshui City, which had been in operation for nearly three hundred years, was shattered in his own hands, and his heart was twitching.
Batu noticed Bashanhe's expression, and comforted him in a condensed voice: "The green mountains left are here, and I am not afraid of no firewood." Today's sea of blood is deep, and he will definitely let Lin Feng repay his blood debts one day. ”
Bashanhe gritted his teeth vigorously and shouted angrily: "Lin Feng, if I don't kill you, this king will not be a man!" ”
"Report, king, there is Meridian Valley ahead, and if you leave Meridian Valley, you will enter the boundary of Longyang County." At this time, a scout soldier rode a horse and came to the road.
Yin Ziwen frowned slightly, and said: "King, the Meridian Valley Mountain is steep, if Lin Feng ambushes heavy troops there, the consequences will be unimaginable!" ”
Batu, who had already suffered two big losses in a row at Lin Feng's hands, still did not grow, and immediately snorted disdainfully, and responded: "Hmph, General Yin is too careful, then Lin Feng'er, he didn't know that we would break through last night, since he didn't know in advance, how could he have ambushed the troops in the Meridian Valley in advance?" ”
In fact, their plan to break through was just a temporary idea, so Lin Feng would never know about it in advance.
Moreover, the most important point is that at this time, it is very likely that Qinshui City has been completely lost. This shows that their back road has also been completely blocked, and there is no other way to escape. Even if there is a tiger's den in Longtan ahead, they have to break through.
"Pass my military order, throw off the baggage as much as possible, and pass through the Meridian Valley as quickly as possible." After Bashanhe thought about his current situation, he didn't hesitate, waved his hand suddenly, and shouted urgently.
With the shouting of Bashan River, fifteen thousand cavalry, like rolling waves, rushed to the Meridian Valley.
However, when their vanguard entered the hinterland of the Meridian Valley, on the cliffs on both sides, flags waved, and the shouts of killing shook the sky.
On a steep place in front of him, there was a young general, sitting on the Black Wind Dragon Horse, holding the Dragon Yin Sword, and the silver armor on his body was shining in the sun, flashing with a murderous cold glow.
Above its head, there is a flag fluttering in the wind, and the word "forest" is written on it.
Seeing this scene, Batu and Yin Ziwen shouted in surprise almost at the same time: "It's not good, it's Lin Feng, we're in ambush!" ”
The name "Lin Feng" is tantamount to a thunderbolt that explodes among the rebels.
In an instant, the rebels' front army was already in chaos.
At this time, Bashanhe was like a fierce beast caught in a desperate situation, and let out a roar in the air: "Don't mess up, stabilize me, steady!" ”
"We have no way out, if we want to live, we will fight our way out of the encirclement with me!"
Under the deterrence of the Bashan River, the rebels barely stabilized their position.
However, the terrain of Meridian Valley is narrow, and it can only accommodate a thousand people at most to fight at a time, so it is impossible for him, more than 15,000 people, to be fully deployed.
"In addition to the three thousand Praetorian Guards, the other 12,000 people, with a team of 1,000 people, divided into twelve echelons, took turns to attack and break through. This king wants to see if this Lin Feng has three heads and six arms? ”
Just when the rebels were in formation, Lin Feng's department also showed a slight agitation.
Due to the sudden rush of the matter, Lin Feng only led 1,500 dragon scale iron horsemen to kill him, and the remaining 30,000 troops would have to arrive at least two hours later.
Due to the terrain, Lin Feng was on top of the steep fortress on the left and right, and arranged 500 archers respectively. At the same time, more flags were distributed, drums were beaten, and shouts were shouted, so as to confuse the rebels, so that they did not know the depths, and to the greatest extent, to undermine their morale.
Lin Feng personally led the last 500 dragon scale iron horsemen to defend the pass and meet the main force of the rebels.
"General, this rebel army seems to want to jump over the wall in a hurry and break through the siege!" Zhou Daniu saw that the rebels were reorganizing the formation, so he muttered to himself.
Lin Feng's expression was solemn, he nodded slightly, and responded: "The terrain here is narrow, which is suitable for the tactics of inverting the bead curtain. As soon as the rebels attack, we will crush them before they can react. Then drive the rout and let it rout for a thousand miles. ”
"Yes, General!" Hearing Lin Feng's strategic deployment, Zhou Daniu and several other pro-soldiers responded excitedly.
In their eyes, as long as there is a great general, not to mention that the other party is ten times their own, even if it is a hundred times their own, they will definitely be able to defeat them.
Invisibly, Lin Feng has become an invincible legend!
Ba Shanhe looked at the flag that was swaying in the wind, and there was a burst of nameless anger in his heart, and he raised his throat and shouted: "Wang Hu, you are the pioneer of the first echelon!" ”
"Zhang Long, you are the pioneer of the second echelon!"
"Murong Qiu, you are the vanguard of the third echelon!"
………………
"Yin Ziwen, you are the pioneer of the seventh echelon!"
………………
"Batu, you are the vanguard of the twelfth echelon!"
"This king is in command and is the vanguard of the last attack echelon!"
"Yes, King!" The generals who were named, whether they were willing or not, all instinctively responded.
Seeing the morale of his side, Ba Shanhe immediately nodded with satisfaction and responded: "The offensive echelons are cross-attacking, and they will never give them a chance to breathe, and strive to defeat them in one fell swoop, have you heard?" ”
"Yes, my lord. We will never give the other side any respite and crush the officers and troops in one fell swoop. Batu and the others shouted in unison.
Seeing that it was almost over, Bashanhe directly waved the first order flag and shouted: "First echelon, attack!" ”
With Bashanhe's shout, Wang Hu raised his throat and shouted: "Brothers, the time has come for us to be loyal to the king, rush with me!" ”
In an instant, the sound of rolling horses' hooves was like the rising tide of the sea, and it swooped up violently.
Seeing this scene, the dragon scale iron rider under Lin Feng's command also felt hungry and thirsty, and the war horse under his crotch smelled the smell of blood, and let out a restless neighing sound.
"General, the rebels are rushing up, should we attack?" Seeing that the rebels were coming menacingly, Zhou Daniu, the captain of the pro-soldiers, asked urgently.
However, on Lin Feng's expression, there was still not the slightest ripple, like an ancient mountain, unmoved by the scene in front of him.
After a while, Lin Feng replied in a condensed voice: "Don't use it for the time being, they want to use serial tactics to drag us down." We have few people, so we should not be hard against them. ”
"Tell the order, the archers are ready, and all those who come within one hundred and fifty paces will be shot!"
"Yes, General!" The herald responded, waved the order flag, and conveyed Lin Feng's order.
Before the herald stopped waving the flag, Zhou Daniu shouted again: "General, there are only 300 steps left!" ”
Lin Feng nodded lightly and responded, "Take the Xuantie Hard Bow!" ”
Without waiting for Lin Feng's words to fall, Zhou Daniu handed over the Xuantie hard bow respectfully.
Lin Feng didn't aim at all, he just opened his bow and set up his arrows, and he did it in one go.
As soon as the first feathered arrow flew out, the second feathered arrow followed suit......
