Chapter 59: Ambush Rush
Qi Gong led 500 auxiliary troops of the Supervision Department to the east of the Yellow River.
The Yellow River from Henan to the east, several diversions, although all dynasties are strictly defended, but can not prevent the impact of the Yellow River, especially in the era of the faint monarch and ministers, the river defense is not solid, the Yellow River will be flooded even more, in the situation that the front diversion is blocked, from the middle of the river embankment, began to impact towards the plain, the eight hundred miles of water in Liangshanbo is the Yellow River south invaded Huai, rushed out, and entered the east line of the Yellow River in Hebei, it was also exploded in this way, and a pheasant head was rushed.
After breaking away from the pheasant head, the Yellow River forms a tributary to the northeast impact, and now at the beginning of spring, the upstream melts ice, it is the time when the water overflows, and the rolling yellow water rushes forward, making a rumbling sound.
He instructed a group of men to cross the river in a boat, take a long rope to find a big tree on the opposite side and tie the rope tightly, and then tie the rope to the body, and then tie the rope to the big tree, control the body, and slip into the river and start to build a pontoon bridge.
Unlike the Yangtze River, most sections of the Yellow River are not as wide as those in most sections, and even more so in tributaries, in which case the water is urgent, but pontoon bridges can be built.
More than a dozen big men carried sharpened logs down the river, two held on to the wood, and two began to smash the sledgehammer under the riverbed, and the wooden stakes slowly stood up on the riverbed.
Qi Gong carried a nine-ring machete, locked his brows and looked at the opposite side, the pheasant head was on the opposite side, there were at least three or five hundred minions, all of them could kill Rao, although he also had five hundred men, but he could fight, but there were only thirty or so, if you really want to move, those auxiliary troops are only afraid that they will disperse when they hear the wind, and they will not dare to leave when the time comes, maybe it will be a dead end.
Half an hour passed, and the two leaders came over and said, "Big brother, this pile can't be stopped, and it will fall immediately when it is washed by the river." ”
As soon as Qi Gong's expression changed, he rushed to the bank of the river, only to see that the big trees had just stood up, and they were washed down by the waves, if it were not for the auxiliary soldiers to block it, they would have been washed away, and he couldn't help frowning deeply, and muttered: "How is this good?" ”
At this moment, there was a rumbling sound of water upstream, and a soldier with torches immediately exclaimed, "Oh no, a ship has come down from above!" ”
Qi Gong was shocked and angry, and hurriedly looked back, and saw more than a dozen ships going down the river, coming towards them, and then one of them carried a knife and shouted loudly: "Don't go, these thieves are with an army!" "It's Xu Ding.
When the auxiliary army heard the wind, they threw their tools and ran around, and Qi Gong shouted with a big knife: "Don't run, don't run!" "But where can I call people back, seeing the ship approaching, the people on the boat pulled the wooden bow and the bitter bamboo arrows and shot at the auxiliaries indiscriminately, far away, the arrows shot by such a soft bow only broke the flesh and skin on the body, and could not hurt their lives at all, but the auxiliaries were so frightened that they couldn't stop screaming, and fainted on the ground when they saw the blood.
Qi Gong suddenly shouted: "It's a miserable person! After carrying the big knife, he was about to go over desperately, and one of his cronies hugged him desperately and shouted: "Big brother! We're only about 30 people, even if it's over, how can we stop those water thieves, let's go! ”
Qi Gong struggled to shake the cronie away, and shouted, "I'm going to leave like this, how can I go back to the king of letters!" After holding the nine-ring machete, he rushed forward, and at this time, a shout: "Climb down!" With the shout, the bowstring swished, and the arrows rained down on the boat, and when he heard the sound of the bowstring, he hurriedly climbed down with his head, and the arrows passed over his head, so frightened that his heart trembled, and secretly called luck.
More than a dozen boats, standing one or two hundred water thieves, caught off guard, dozens of people were hit by arrows, these are all hard arrows in the army, more than a dozen water thieves were killed on the spot, and the rest were also shot and fell into the water, Xu Ding was hit by an arrow in his left shoulder, and shouted loudly in pain: "Hurry back to the rudder, they have an ambush!" ”
The ambushes on both sides of the bank were exhausted, and Yang Wen took the lead to the river and shouted: "Gong Gong, quickly put the wood!" ”
Qi Gong didn't understand what Yang Wen meant, but he reacted immediately, and took the thirty or so subordinates, all of whom took off their clothes and went into the water, fixed their bodies on the long rope of the pontoon bridge, and then pushed the logs that were washed down by the piling towards the boat.
The boat was going to rudder against the current, and when the Yellow River was in a hurry, where was it so fast, several people used weapons to push the big wood forward, just hit the waist of the boat that was about to turn around, the boat was knocked to the side, and even some boats were directly knocked over.
Xu Ding was in the first boat, and he jumped into the water when he saw it badly, Xiahou Cheng saw it in the back, and couldn't help but panic, and wanted to jump into the water, but he was reluctant to get those boats, and the foundation that was finally obtained, so he shouted loudly in a hurry: "General Xuan, General Xuan, save ......." He didn't finish talking, and by the light of the torches opposite, he saw the stump with his head curly yellow and his head disembarking from the boat, and the man pulling the horse's tail and heading towards the shore.
The horse was tall and flowing with water and walked to the shore, and the water followed behind, and the water became deeper and deeper, and his whole body was immersed in the water, and his head could not be seen, but one hand was still holding the horse's tail, and after walking for a while, the horse walked close to the shore, and the water became shallow from deep to shallow, and the stump gradually came out of the water, and opened his mouth and gasped for breath, and his face was suffocated with purple whiskers.
The tall head curly yellow walked from the water to the shore, followed the tarp ashore, took off all the clothes and armor on his body, only wore a piece of crotch cloth to cover his shame, turned over on the horse, knocked the saddle with an axe, the tall head curled the horse Huang neighed, the four hooves turned over, and went to the north.
Yang Wen hadn't seen the horse before, but when he heard the neighing of the horse, he saw the horse heading north, and immediately chased after the horse, saying as he walked: "Look at the people and horses!" ”
Xiahou Cheng was stupid when he saw it, and when he saw that he had gone without a trace, he couldn't help but stomp his feet and scolded: "Hurry!" You unrighteous thief! He was scolding, when he saw the waves on the opposite side overturn, a turtle-like arc spread out, followed by Qi Gong grabbed Xu Ding out of the water, Xiahou Cheng knew that the big thing had gone, so he urged the boatmen around him to turn their heads and go towards the upstream water village, he secretly said in his heart: "I still have two or three hundred minions in the water village, I will take them to the Daimyo's Mansion to join the army." Thinking of this, he urged the boat to go quickly.
More than a dozen boats came out, and when Xiahou Cheng returned to Shuizhai, he was the only one.
When Xiahou Cheng saw the banner of Shuizhai, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and said in his heart: "It's finally back......." He didn't wait for a sigh of relief, he saw that on the bank of the river, countless infantry did not know where to flash out, so they rushed towards the water village, this water village is the water to build a village, the main body is still on the shore, was rushed, the fence was all knocked open, the minions inside were all defenseless, being killed like a chicken and a duck, there was no power to fight back, and finally jumped down to the river, trying to escape by water, but those soldiers chased to the bank of the river, kept releasing arrows, and streams of blood floated on the surface of the river, and even the river water was dyed red.
Xia Houcheng saw Wen Da on the boat holding a dragon head and a big knife on the bank of the river, constantly urging the horses to walk around, and shouted loudly: "It's all demolished for me, don't leave a little wood here, don't let those thief bones go, just kill!" I couldn't help screaming and fell backwards, a mouthful of blood spurted out of my mouth, and the person fainted, and the boat guy saw that someone on the shore had taken off his clothes and went into the water, and came towards them, and he was so frightened that he was terrified, so he propped the boat and went to the opposite shore, and when he reached the shore, he fled without his life with Xiahou Cheng on his back.
He urged the horse to the north, and he said secretly while running: "I go west to the Neihuang taken by Zhao Zhen, to the south is the Great Song Dynasty, and to the east is Liu Yu, which road is not my way out, Lao Tzu simply went north, and went to the Jin country." He was thinking about it, he heard the sound of horses' hooves behind him, looked back, and saw a general riding a white horse chasing over, he would be a fire in his heart, and when he saw Yang Wen's figure, he took the horse, and said in his heart: "Grandpa just now has no way to take you in the water, is it possible that he is afraid of you on this shore, wait for you to come, grandpa will kill you." ”
The two generals met, and they didn't say anything, and the knives and axes fought together, and they fought back and forth for fifteen or six rounds, Yang Wen was able to hold on first, but the more he fought, the more passive he became, although he would not lose immediately, but he also knew that he would never win the rope, and in a hurry, at the moment when the two horses were close, he pulled out the Liulang sword from his waist and swung it hard at the big axe.
With a choking sound, the axe and gun of the big axe were broken, and he was shocked and angry, and said in his heart: "It's not good, this son has a treasure blade, and I will fight again, I'm afraid that he will plot against me." Thinking of this, he made an axe, forced Yang Wen away, and then took the horse away, Yang Wen also pulled the horse and didn't dare to chase forward, he just won half a move, but Liulang's sword was thin, and he couldn't really hit the big axe.
He urged the horse to run out for more than ten miles in one breath, and then he slowed down, looked at the sky and sighed, and said in his heart: "How did I become like this." ”
At this time, at night, the cool breeze was blowing on the body of the jumper who was not wearing clothes, and he couldn't help but shiver for a while, and the jumper was so cold that he shivered, and said secretly in his heart: "Where to find a piece of clothing to wear, otherwise it will be enough to panic when it comes to white ugliness, so blow down all the way, you have to get sick." As he was thinking, he heard the sound of gongs in all directions, and a group of men and horses flashed out of the shadows.
The people and horses tightly surrounded the stump, and then hugged out a few people to the front of the battle, the first person, stepped down the whirlwind, the three-pointed two-edged gun in the palm, the waist tied with the royal belt, it was the letter king Zhao Zhen, his left hand Yue Yang, right hand Qiong Ying, the horse queen Du Xing, was hugged over, looked at the squirrel and smiled: "General, your whereabouts have already been guessed by our Mr. Lu, where are you going?" It's better to get off the horse quickly, and tie your hands and catch it. ”
He gritted his teeth and shouted, "Zhao Zhen! Do you think you're going to take your family seriously? But first ask your grandfather's big axe if you agree! After urging the horse, he rushed up, Yue Yang raised the purple gold dragon spear in his hand, and urged the horse to step forward to stop the fight, the two of you come and go, and in the blink of an eye, it is more than thirty rounds.
Zhao Zhen saw that Yue Yang was fighting viciously, and gradually lost the upper hand, so he whispered to Qiong Ying: "You hit the one with an axe with a stone, and answer Yueyang." ”
Qiong Ying said unconvinced: "Even if I am in the past, I can also defeat him!" ”
Zhao Zhen persuaded: "I want to capture him alive here, wouldn't it be a waste if you stepped forward to kill him." ”
Qiong Ying said disappreciably: "If I can kill him, I can capture him." ”
Zhao Zhen couldn't see it, so he glared and said: "You are in the army now, you have to obey the dispatch, and you don't do it yet." ”
Qiong Ying was not convinced, but she couldn't do anything more, she rolled her eyes, had an idea, urged the horse forward, and arrived in the middle of the formation, raising her hand is a stone to hit out.
Jian Qi and Yue Yang were fighting fiercely, and suddenly the wind sounded in their ears, what a rush! With a twist of the palm, the big axe turned violently, the axe was blocked in front of the face, the stone hit the axe, and with a bang, it exploded into six pieces and flew apart, Yue Yang took the opportunity to shoot and stabbed at the throat of the thief, and the big gun passed under his jaw.
He snorted in pain, and then scolded: "Where did the thief come from, he actually hurt people with a secret arrow!" ”
Qiong Ying screamed: "Scarface thief, you dare to scold your aunt and grandmother!" "Urging the horse forward, the wheel in the hand painted the gold square towards the slash, the big axe swinged, fighting alone Yue Yang, Qiong Ying, it was fearless.
Zhao Zhen saw Qiong Ying come forward, and couldn't help but slap his thigh, Lu Qing asked him to ambush the horse pit here, the plum blossom pit, set up more tripping ropes, and then use arrows to force the stumbling horse to fall into the pit, but after Zhao Zhen saw Qiong Ying, he changed his mind and wanted to rely on Qiong Ying's flying stone to make a contribution, but now Qiong Ying actually went into battle, so that the threat to the Fei Ying is not so big.
Zhao Zhen looked at it for a while, and saw that the squandering had the upper hand again, and couldn't help but secretly say, "That's it, I'll go up too." Thinking of this, he urged the horse forward, shook the three-pointed two-edged spear in his hand and stabbed at the sting.
Zhao Zhen is inexperienced after all, he didn't see it, although he had the upper hand, but after he entered the night, he first dripped, and then fought Yang Wen viciously, under the fierce fight, his body sweated, and was blown back by the cold wind, he was already a little dizzy, if he was fine, he would be relieved after sleeping all night, but he fought with Yue Yang for so long, and his body was already a little weak, Qiong Ying came up, and it was only a matter of time before he was defeated, but as soon as Zhao Zhen came up, he cheered up violently.
"Lao Tzu doesn't ask for anything else, just behead you Zhao Zhen here, and exchange one of my cheap lives for your precious life!"
Thinking of this, he roared, and turned the big axe with both hands, the axe spun like a windmill, and swung forward, Yue Yang, Qiong Ying's shot and halberd were knocked away, and the tall head curly yellow rushed forward, and the big axe in the hand of the thief stabbed towards Zhao Zhen's heart.
Where did Zhao Zhen have time to pull the gun back to the grid, looking at the axe coming, he couldn't help but secretly scream: "It's not good, I'm going to die here!" "It's just that I thought of this, the big axe was handed to the end, and it stopped, it turned out that this axe has a name, and the net is the most suitable for group battles, and the killer is a hit, just in the axe gun, he used all his strength to send the axe out, just thinking about stabbing Zhao Zhen to death with the axe gun, but the big axe was sent to the end, and then I remembered that the axe and gun had already been cut down by Yang Wen, where can I still kill people."
