Chapter 232: Jiuwen is missing
Mr. Wu explained that the stone bridge at the foot of the mountain is the only passage between the forest and the outside world, and that the stone bridge has been abandoned after the explosion.
If the wooden bridge is cut off, although the officers and soldiers will not be able to enter for a while, they are likely to set fire to the mountain as they did last time.
It is the windy season of spring, and once the wildfire burns, it is impossible to save it.
Rather than that, it's better to fight!
Nine texts were afraid that they would tear down the bridge, so they asked this question, and when they heard that this answer was in line with the original intention, they did not delve into it anymore.
After that, Mr. Wu commanded everyone to transfer all the old, young, sick and weak in the village to the back mountain overnight, but Jiuwen insisted on not going and stayed in the main village.
The next day, the officers and soldiers began to attack the mountain.
As Sun Yuanwai predicted, although Liu Quan's officers and soldiers were numerous, they were trapped in the dense forest, coupled with the unfamiliar terrain and many traps, he did not show an advantage for a while.
Qing'er and Wang Lun followed Mr. Wu all day long, assisting him in coordinating all military supplies, supplies, and food.
The two of them were young, and they were used to doing things, and they got started very quickly, and it didn't take long for them to become Mr. Wu's arms - wherever they went, the three of them were so busy that they couldn't even spare time to eat.
In comparison, Sun Yuanwai and Jiuwen are gradually not calm.
On this day, Sun Yuanwai said anxiously: "Why haven't Captain Jia's soldiers and horses come yet? I don't know what's going on. ”
Jiuwen was chattered by him for a long time, and he began to mumble in his heart. Normally, the team should have been in place a day and a half ago, but now there is still no news.
This time, they were carrying Bai Chuan's rescuers, and Jia Gong's nephew was stationed there, only four or five hours away.
Since the last time Jiuwen was attacked in Liangzhou. Sun Yuanwai was frightened, no matter where Jiuwen went from now on, he had to explore the road and set up a formation first.
This time, when the Jiuwen people were still in the middle capital. He had already met with Captain Jia once, and all the things in Pingxian County were laid out and stabilized.
I thought that as long as the cottage could resist for half a day, the reinforcements would be able to annihilate Liu Quan in one fell swoop as soon as the reinforcements arrived, but I didn't want to start a war for two days, and the army would not see half a shadow!
Now that he has been trapped for two whole days, do you want to count on this rabble in the cottage?
Seeing that the situation was gradually getting out of control, the two of them became more and more bottomless. It was decided to have a showdown with everyone and unite the forces of the cottage to save themselves.
In the evening, Jiuwen invited the leading brother, Mr. Wu, Qing'er, Wang Lun and other cadres, and had to take the initiative to reveal their identities.
The identity of the Nine Emperor Princes shone brightly. Mr. Wu was so frightened that he fell to the ground with a "plop", and the leading brother and several other leaders also fell to their knees with the "hulala".
Jiuwen hurriedly helped the leading brother up, and bluntly said that he had borrowed Bai Chuan's soldiers and horses to escort him, as long as the village lasted a few days. You will be able to flank the inside and outside with reinforcements. Annihilate Liu Quan.
Mr. Wu smiled and said, "Nine Emperor Zidan relax! Do you know that Shirakawa has two or three floods in mid-February every year, and it is estimated that the team is blocked by the floods. However, the river is not big, and it will pass in three or five days. Now that the prince is with us, the morale of the warriors will definitely be greatly boosted from now on, and it will not be a problem to hold on for another seven or eight days! ”
Jiuwen nodded and said firmly: "Mr. is reasonable, I will personally lead the troops into battle tomorrow." Boost morale! ”
As soon as these words came out, the whole house immediately blew up the camp. Everyone spoke out to stop it.
Only Qing'er alone supported Jiuwen, and analyzed: "The Nine Emperors' participation in the battle is still secondary, the key is to let Liu Quan's people know that they are unknown, and they are enemies of the prince, that is, enemies of the imperial court!" Since ancient times, the siege of the city is the bottom, and the attack is the top, as long as the opponent's army is weak, we can carry it for a while. ”
The leading brother retorted loudly: "The battlefield has no eyes, this is too dangerous!" If something happens to the Nine Emperors, we can't afford to pay for a few heads. ”
Jiuwen listened but was indifferent, he had made up his mind and insisted on going into battle to supervise the battle.
Sun Yuanwai refused to follow to the death, and the two sides disputed.
Qing'er hurriedly said: "The Nine Emperor Princes can disturb the other party's military morale when they go into battle, who else can do it?" Liu Quan didn't intend to let any of us go here. There is a way to fall under the nest, and there are eggs? When the cottage can't be defended, it's useless to invite the Nine Emperors to come out, I'm afraid that it's useless for the Jade Emperor to come! ”
Qing'er's words were reasonable, and everyone present was speechless, and finally agreed that Jiuwen would be guarded by his own soldiers, and Qing'er also fought side by side with Jiuwen as he wished.
The next day, Jiuwen and Qing'er led their soldiers to guard the empty field in the middle of the mountain.
Three high poles were erected on the ground overnight, and the banners of the Nine Emperor Princes were hung on them, and people could see them from a distance as soon as they entered the mountain.
The main role of Jiuwen's participation in the war lies in this, so the form is far greater than the content.
All 20 of his own soldiers were transferred from the front line to defend here, but in fact, they suffered a lot in the battle situation, which greatly weakened the resistance of the cottage.
But the leading eldest brother insisted on this in order to ensure the safety of the Nine Emperor Princes.
In fact, this is halfway up the mountain, far away from the stone bridge, and the number of enemies killed is very small, and there is danger here, which is very safe.
Rao is like this, Sun Yuanwai is still not at ease, and insists on letting Jiuwen and Xiao Si ride a horse together, and Qing'er is also ordered to ride with Xiao Er.
This was agreed by everyone last night, although Jiuwen and Qing'er were unhappy, they couldn't screw them.
I didn't want to be so elaborate, but the accident happened!
It happened by chance, and a small group of the enemy got lost, and without arguing the direction, they actually touched the place from the back hill and clashed with their own soldiers.
These pro-soldiers are all one in a thousand, and the enemy is not a problem at all, but in the fierce battle, a stray arrow swept in front of Jiuwen's horse.
Jiuwen's horse was frightened, neighed, stood up straight, and almost threw Jiuwen out of the horse, but fortunately, Xiao Si protected him tightly, and the two of them were dead on the horse.
The startled horse then shook the order several times, but still failed to shake the man off the horse, and suddenly rushed into the depths of the dense forest with angry hooves, and disappeared in a blink of an eye.
Seeing this, Qing'er and Sun Yuanwai were so anxious that they pulled out their horses and chased after them, seven or eight personal soldiers followed behind them, and the rest stayed where they were.
But the forest here was too dense, and Jiuwen's horse was running too fast, and everyone only chased for a while, not to mention the human figure, even the whip sound that Xiao Si deliberately made could not be heard.
This dense forest is far away from the battlefield, and the trees are extremely luxuriant, covering the sky and the sun, but the forest looks dark and damp in broad daylight.
Everyone lost their way and had to search separately in several ways.
Xiao Er seems to be very experienced in tracking, and can easily detect the traces of horses' hooves in the woods where his vision is not clear.
With the horseshoe prints that kept appearing, Qing'er felt that they should be chasing in the right direction.
She didn't know how to track, she just anxiously searched around, her mind flustered.
Jiuwen's participation in the war was promoted by her efforts, but now this kind of thing has happened, if she doesn't get Jiuwen back safely in person, Qing'er can't let her go!
The more Qing'er and the others walked deeper into the forest, the more they felt that this place was inaccessible, and they were afraid that even the people in the village would not come in. (To be continued......)
