Chapter Eighty-Eight: The Rear Army Is Blocked
Just when Yu Wanchun's Chinese army was approaching Maling Road, You Tongcai commanded the rear army to set off, they escorted a large amount of grain and grass and military supplies, and walked slowly, only to walk less than two miles, a person flashed out from the side of the road, and shouted loudly in front of the army: "The general who leads the army must not go anymore!" ”
It was Yang Tengjiao who opened the way in front, he waved the golden pear flower axe in his hand, made an appointment with the army, and said in a deep voice: "Who are you?" How dare you stop my army? ”
The man bowed his hand; "Back to the general, people Xu Ding, once worshiped under the account of Liu Qi as a general, after the eldest prince was captured by Zhao Zhen, people followed all the way, and the day before yesterday, I saw Zhao Zhen's men and horses sneaking into the Maling Road and making an ambush there."
Yang Tengjiao's face changed greatly, and he urgently ordered his subordinates to immediately invite You Tong and Quan Daqing to come over, and then dismounted and interrogated Xu Ding.
This will You Tong and Quan Daqing also arrived, Yang Tengjiao and them again, You Tong was still a little suspicious: "He won't lie to us, right?" ”
Yang Tengjiao shook his head and said: "There is no need for him to deceive us, and this kind of thing, first believe it, and then doubt it, in order to ensure the safety of the army." ”
You Tong saw that he was solemn, and couldn't help but panic, so he said, "Then what should I do?" Do you want to send someone to inform the marshal immediately? ”
Yang Tengjiao calculated the time, shook his head and said, "I'm afraid it's too late, judging from the speed of the marshal's actions, he should have already entered Maling Dao." ”
Quan Daqing said: "Then let's rush to answer immediately." ”
Yang Tengjiao said: "Zhao Zhen can arrange the ambush so safely, it is clear that he or the strategists around him are extraordinary, there must be soldiers and horses at the entrance of Maling Road, and they must be according to the speed of our march, and when we arrive at Maling Road, where there is already a fight, he must have military horses to stop us from entering Maling Road." ”
You Tong stomped his feet and said: "This doesn't work, that doesn't work, don't we care about the handsome and escape by ourselves?" ”
Yang Tengjiao smiled slightly and said: "Brother You, Brother Quan, if my expectations are good, they will definitely set up soldiers and horses at the entrance, first intercept us into Maling Road to meet the marshal, and then in the case of our full attack, take our heavy grain and grass, if the two of you are willing to listen to me, not only can the marshal rush out of Maling Road smoothly, but also can thwart Zhao Zhen's letter army." ”
You Tong was cautious, so he said: "I don't want to make meritorious contributions, as long as there is no fault, if you can do this, I will listen to you." Quan Daqing glanced at You Tong with disdain, and said: "Brother Yang Xian, you just have to tell me, and I will listen to your arrangement." ”
Yang Tengjiao glanced at Quan Daqing gratefully, and then said to You Channel: "Brother You rest assured, I am not a fool, naturally we must first ensure that we do not make mistakes, Brother You can lead 3,000 people in the headquarters, keep the grain and grass and leave, from then on, to the west, in Nanle Town, where Yu Dajiang's sister-in-law Yu Hu is stationed, there are also 3,000 people and horses, and although Yu Hu is not good in martial arts, but not like Yu Long, he has always defended Nanle Town is not bad, Brother You will solve the grain and grass in the past, as long as the grain and grass are not lost, then we will not make a mistake." ”
You Tong nodded and said, "The virtuous brother arranged it well, and the foolish brother will leave." After getting on the horse and turning around, he greeted his subordinates, and was about to leave, but Yang Tengjiao stopped him again and said: "If Brother You goes like this, I'm afraid that someone will see your grain and grass halfway and move the thief's heart, although Brother You is not afraid, but the military horse is lonely, it is better not to cause trouble." ”
You Tong nodded again and again: "What Brother Xian said is good, how you and I should go, I will go." ”
Yang Tengjiao said: "Brother takes all the grain away, the forage of the war horse is just left, and the grain pocket is carried by the cavalry's horse, so there is no need to pity the horsepower." ”
You Tong thought so, so he asked the general to load the bags of rice and grain on the horse, although each horse was loaded with three or five bags, but there were some leftovers, Yang Teng gave all the horses to You Tong, so most of them were carried away, and there were less than 100 bags left.
After Yang Tengjiao waited for You Tong to leave with the men and horses, he ordered his subordinates to cut down more trees, load them on the car, and cover them with grain bags and forage bags, and then said to Xu Ding: "Xu Zhuangshi, I have a task with you here, do you dare to take it?" ”
Xu Ding said: "Listen to the drive." ”
Yang Tengjiao said: "You just sneak to the exit of Maling Road, they should also have ambush soldiers there, you see whether you recognize the guard of the man and horse, if you recognize it, you don't have to step forward, if you don't recognize it, you just believe that King Zhao Zhen asked you to go, and make up a lie to transfer them away." ”
Xu Ding said: "This matter is not difficult, people will go here." He left at the moment.
Quan Daqing said puzzledly: "What does this mean, brother Xian?" ”
Yang Tengjiao smiled bitterly and said: "I'm just afraid that our commander, surrounded by the enemy, lost his head, and don't wait for us to break the other party's block, he wants to escape, if that's the case, there is a promise to transfer the opponent's ambush away, and he can still rush out from the exit and join the front army." ”
Quan Daqing knew what Yang Tengjiao meant, and couldn't help but sigh secretly.
Yang Tengjiao cheered up and said: "My brother will lead the people and horses to move forward in a while, attracting their ambush soldiers, and then my brother will lead the army to attack on one side. ”
Quan Daqing said: "Foolish brothers listen to virtuous brothers." ”
At that moment, Quan Daqing took 3,000 people and horses, escorted the fake grain and grass carts, and rushed towards Maling Road, Yang Tengjiao coaxed You Tong to leave, and left those grain trucks behind, just to deceive people.
Yang Tengjiao took the rest of the people and horses, followed behind, and walked in secret, not letting people see it.
When Quan Daqing arrived at Maling Road, the inside of Maling Road was already dark, Quan Daqing only did a hurry to respond, urging people and horses to just move forward, only to the entrance, shouting and killing, Sha Zhen with his son, daughter, son-in-law with a thousand elite soldiers to kill out, originally to more and less, the best way is to build fortifications, to fight more with less, but Sha Zhen They have to wait for Yu Wanchun to enter Maling Road before they can come to set up an ambush, so there is no way to build fortifications, this will only be a waiting.
Quan Daqing stepped forward and shouted: "The rear army protects the grain and grass, and the front army will follow me to attack and take down the enemy!" "Once he was in the lead, he rushed forward.
Yueyang has been studying the military town for a long time, which will be arranged into a circle array, and the arrows will be released to the opposite side, and the command of Quan Daqing will set up a large shield temporarily made of tree body, covering the feather arrows, advancing step by step, and at the same time ordering the archers behind him, constantly throwing forward, Yueyang They did not prepare so much armor, but were killed and injured by the opponent's arrows.
Sha Zhen saw that the situation was not right, so he said to Yue Yang: "Virtuous son-in-law, we are afraid that we will not be able to win if we fight with the other party, but we will lead our troops to rush!" ”
Yue Yang was still hesitating, but there was another burst of shooting on the opposite side, and the minions of the umbrella cover mountain were shot over again, and Sha Kewu shouted loudly in distress: "If we don't move forward, I'm afraid we will all die here!" ”
As soon as Yue Yang gritted his teeth, he said, "But rush for a while!" Sha Kewu immediately rushed out of the formation with a team of men and horses and killed Liu Jun.
Quan Daqing watched Sha Kewu's men and horses coming, and immediately waved the order flag, and one of his subordinates with more than 1,000 elite soldiers followed and surrounded him, wrapping Sha Kewu's men and horses.
Sha Kewu led his subordinates to fight hard, but he only had about 300 people, and for a while, where could he rush out.
Sha Zhen led another 300 people to rush over, and another subordinate of Quan Daqing rushed over with another 1,000 people, and wrapped Sha Zhen again, Liu Jun was a team of five people, a group of three teams, and attacked each other, Sha Zhen was like a beast trapped in a cage, and he couldn't rush out.
Yue Yang didn't see it right in the back, so he said, "How are these puppet armies different from being surrounded?" "They have already seen it just now, Liu Jun in Maling Road is like a fly without a head, as long as he is attacked, he will lose control, but Liu Jun on the opposite side is well-trained, although he fights more and less, but he is not chaotic at all, and he can't help but be surprised.
Sha Liwen was not surprised, and said: "Among the Liu army, there are also strong soldiers, which is what we have encountered." ”
After the two of them talked, Quan Daqing had already rushed over with his men and horses, and Yue Yang saw that he only left a hundred or so people to guard the grain and grass cart, so he said: "Let's attract them over, and His Highness will be able to rob his grain and grass smoothly!" Then he rushed over with Sarliwen and Quan Daqing's men and horses, and fought with Quan Daqing's men and horses.
The battlefield is divided into three places, although Liu Jun has many soldiers, but the battlefield is stalemate, Liu Jun can't eat Sha Zhen and Yueyang, and Sha Zhen and Yue Yang They can't break through.
The two sides fought for a while, and the killing sound started again not far away, but it was Zhao Zhen, Qiong Ying, and Du Xing who surrounded them with 800 people, and rushed straight to the grain and grass cart, and those Liu Jun who watched the grain cart immediately dispersed, and Zhao Zhen and they almost effortlessly took down the grain and grass cart.
Zhao Zhen lacked experience on the battlefield and didn't feel anything wrong at all, so he ordered Du Xing to take a group of soldiers and horses to protect the grain cart, and he and Qiong Ying went to the opposite side to kill, and responded to Sha Zhen and Sha Kewu respectively.
Quan Daqing waved the order flag to mobilize the people to respond, and one of his personal soldiers shouted a little anxiously: "General, why hasn't Commander Yang come out to meet us?" ”
Quan Daqing glanced at the pro-soldier coldly, and said, "General Yang has his own balances, do you still want you to command?" "After waving the order flag, just try to support, but they just relied on the number of people to suppress the opponent, now the advantage of numbers is not obvious, it is difficult to fight back by the letter army, and they can't stop retreating, but Quan Daqing fought with a sword to suppress the formation, so that although the soldiers and horses showed a decline, they were still undefeated.
"Kill!" There was a roar, sounded, followed by Yang Tengjiao led four thousand elite soldiers to rush out, the soldiers marched in two ways, the first way surrounded and wrapped Zhao Zhen, Sha Zhen, Yue Yang and others, the other was only a few hundred people, and they rushed towards the grain and grass carts, and they were so close that Du Xing couldn't do anything, so they lit the fire folds and threw them on the grain and grass carts, and those grain and grass carts immediately burst into flames, and the churning fire waves rolled towards Du Xing and them.
Du Fishy people were caught off guard, and immediately messed up, which would have hundreds of people in the periphery just put arrows, Du Xing they were like live targets were shot to the ground by arrows, Du Xing saw that he had to wait any longer, he had to be pierced by random arrows, so he danced a pair of chicken heart hammers, desperately rushed out, and was shot four arrows on his body, and the blood flowed out like flowing water, but he didn't care about these, so he rushed to the opposite side, trying to rescue Zhao Zhen, but only half of the rush, an arrow hit the horse's belly, and the horse monster screamed in pain, and walked away, Du Xing struggled several times, He couldn't pull the horse back, and as he bled out, his hands became weak, and he could no longer control the horse.
Zhao Zhen and Qiong Ying were rushed apart, there were only a dozen guards around them, desperately rushing to kill, Yang Tengjiao saw that although the letter army was surrounded by layers, but he did not retreat, fighting desperately, he couldn't help but be amazed, suddenly, he saw Zhao Zhen in the crowd at a glance, and said in his heart: "This person looks like he has an extraordinary posture, but I am afraid that Zhao Zhen's cronies are re-generals, but I went over and killed him, and I can also frustrate their spirit." Thinking of this, he urged the horse over, and the golden pear flower axe in his hand was silently behind Zhao Zhen.
One of Zhao Zhen's personal guards exclaimed: "Your Highness! With a swoop, he flattened Zhao Zhen's back, Yang Tengjiao's big axe slashed on his back, and the tip of the axe penetrated directly through his heart.
Zhao Zhen hurriedly returned his hand and hugged the guard, he and Yang Tengjiao looked at each other, and the two of them were shocked at the same time, Zhao Zhen didn't expect that Yang Tengjiao didn't know when he got behind him, but Yang Tengjiao didn't expect that the person in front of him was Zhao Zhen, after being stunned, he couldn't help laughing and said: "His Royal Highness the King of Letters, but please dismount and surrender, as long as the last general captures you, even if our army is defeated, it will be worth it!" ”
Zhao Zhen put down the guard, snorted coldly, turned his horse back, and confronted Yang Tengjiao, shaking the three-pointed two-edged gun in his hand: "Rats, you want to catch this king, come up with the gun and try it!" ”
Yang Tengjiao didn't urge the horse to come over, and danced the big axe to fight, and the two immediately fought together.
Zhao Zhen's basic martial arts is 70, get the whirlwind skull +1, the path short knife (that is, the knife taken from the hands of Zongyan Zongyin, Lu Qing identified it as the Hun King Hu Hanxi's wine-stirring saber 'path') +3, some time ago, he used the white killing order to add four dimensions to himself, reaching: governing the country +10, martial arts +1, unifying the army +10, wisdom +10 to reach governing the country 65, martial arts 75, unifying the army 55, wisdom 80, due to the system regulations, the bonus can not make a single item exceed other items by more than ten points (from the basic value), After the bonus once, it will take three months before it can be added again, so Wu Yong can only go to 75, and Yang Tengjiao's Wu Yong is 95, a big axe dance, like a windmill dance, just around Zhao Zhen up and down, but it is about ten rounds, Zhao Zhen can't catch it, if it weren't for Yang Tengjiao's bent on catching him alive, then he would have died here a long time ago, Zhao Zhen's guards wanted to come over to answer, but they were all entangled by Liu Jun, and they couldn't get rid of their opponents desperately.
Zhao Zhen fought more and more weakly, in desperation, he looked for an opportunity, shook a shot, turned the horse and left, the whirlwind sensed the crisis of the main Rao, let go of the four hooves, and rushed forward desperately, although Zhao Zhen fought Yang Tengjiao, but those soldiers could not stop him, the three-pointed two-edged spear flew and provoked, and he rushed out of a bloody way.
Yang Tengjiao followed and killed, if it was someone else, he wouldn't chase it, but the opposite side must be Zhao Zhen, he couldn't stand the temptation, and urged the horse to chase over, one of the two people ran in front, one chased behind, and gradually got out of the battlefield.
