Chapter 65: Greed for Life and Fear of Death

Shimen Mountain.

This place is the main road to Qinzhou, not very far from Qinzhou, Xiao Yuan is a soldier at the morning hour, and ordered He Gui to suppress the bandits.

Therefore, near noon, the latter had arrived here with his troops.

After finding a place near Shimen Mountain to rest and recuperate, He Gui began to let the army make a fire to make food.

After a while, the smoke rose, and the gang leader began to get busy, and such a big movement was near the mountain bandits' lair, and the other party just didn't want to know it, it was impossible.

In the dense forest, there was a minion patrolling the mountains, and when he saw so many troops, the minion was startled at first, and immediately lay on the ground, and after a few steps, he immediately turned around and ran.

"Woe to you! Woe to youβ€”"

As soon as he ran back to the cottage, the minion screamed frantically and rushed into the hall in a panic.

In the hall, on the tiger skin chair directly above, sat a big man with a beard on his face, a fierce appearance, a disheveled head, and a chest **.

This person is the leader of the bandits in Shimen Mountain, named Lei Bao, in the early years he was a Jiangyang thief, burned and killed adultery, did all kinds of evil, because he was wanted by the government, he gathered a group of grass robbers, and occupied the mountain as the king.

Looking at the panicked little minion, Lei Leopard frowned, and shouted in a deep voice: "What are you panicking about!" What's wrong!? ”

"Big ...... The big bosses, officials, officers and soldiers, there are officers and soldiers. The little minion stammered.

"What!?" Lei Leopard couldn't help but stand up and asked, "How many!" ”

"Very, a lot, a few thousand." The little minion replied in a trembling voice.

......Hearing this, Lei Leopard first took a deep breath, and then slowly sat back.

Over the years, they have robbed so many people and done so many evil deeds, so naturally they have long been prepared for the encirclement and suppression of officers and soldiers.

He didn't panic, but looked at the person sitting next to him, and said, "Second brother, are you all ready to be together?" ”

"Big brother, don't worry, we have long expected this day, just wait for them to come!" The second owner of the cottage is full of confidence.

"Good! Tell the brothers, come and kill as much as you want! Look at these officers and soldiers, will they dare to come to suppress us in the future! ”

He Gui sent troops to suppress the bandits, first, he did not study the terrain, second, he did not send scouts to inquire about the situation, and third, he did not hide his whereabouts, and clearly gave the other party sufficient time to prepare, and it was not difficult to see that he was a complete waste.

At this moment, he sighed even more, looking depressed.

Seeing this, his lieutenant general couldn't help but say, "Since Lord Taishou gave the order, how is the general going to attack next?" Can you have a detailed plan? ”

"How else can you attack?" He Gui glanced at him and said angrily: "You can only take a strong attack." ”

"But this ......" the lieutenant wanted to say something, but he didn't know how to speak.

"What's this, that, he's too guarded, if you want me to suppress the bandits, what can I do, I can only suppress it!" He Gui complained, and then said: "Pass the order, and after eating, attack directly." ”

"This ...... Yes, the Admiral understands. "He is the chief general, he has no strategy for using troops, and the deputy general has no choice but to respond.

After the meal, He Gui didn't ink, and really launched a strong attack on Shimen Mountain.

The mountain roads here are winding, and there are many steep mountains around, and it is difficult for the soldiers to march, but with He Gui's order, the soldiers can only launch a full-scale attack.

If you look down from the sky, you can see groups of soldiers in the mountains and forests everywhere, attacking the cottage in an encirclement shape, but when these soldiers are halfway through, something happens suddenly.

The ground in the forest was full of dead leaves, and someone accidentally stepped on the improvised mechanism and was hoisted into the air by a rope.

Someone fell directly into the trap and was pierced by the bamboo thorns below.

Someone was hit by a boulder and died instantly spitting blood from his mouth.

There were also many soldiers who were shot into hedgehogs by random arrows from nowhere......

The screams were all over the dense forest, and as soon as they fell, they rang out again, almost in one piece, one after another.

He Gui didn't know what was going on, and under the protection of the heavy soldiers, he immediately shouted in panic: "What's the matter!" What's going on!? ”

"General, it seems that the attacking teams in all parts of our department have been attacked, and the other side has an ambush!" There are generals back.

"What!?" He Gui was shocked and was about to say something, but at this time, in the surrounding dense forest, a large area of leaves shook, and then, countless random arrows shot from the forest.

Plop puff plop!

In just an instant, dozens of soldiers were shot to the ground, and the screams filled the audience.

"Protect General Ben! Fast! Protect General Benβ€”"

In such a situation, He Gui was so frightened that his heart and gall were broken, and he kept screaming bitterly.

With his shout, countless soldiers immediately protected him behind him and began to wave their blades to block arrows.

The sound of clanging came from time to time, and there were more soldiers around who howled to the ground from time to time, this scene, in the eyes of He Gui, who had never been on the battlefield, was so terrifying.

He couldn't hold on any longer, and while fleeing for his life, he shouted again and again: "Withdraw!" Get out of the wayβ€”"

He came quickly, retreated faster, but left a corpse on the ground, and until now, he had not seen a single enemy, and he had no idea where the enemy was.

Such an incompetent person, greedy for life and afraid of death, but in an important position in the army, I really want him to continue to mix, and when it comes to the real war, I don't know how many people will be killed!

And after he withdrew from Shimen Mountain, he was embarrassed, his armor was crooked, and the soldiers who followed him still had the heart to suppress bandits, but after such a while, where did people still have a trace of fighting spirit.

The army is not like the army, the corporal and the soldiers, hanging their heads, and its adjutant general also walked over quickly, moved the corners of his mouth, and said: "General, our action just now was a little too hasty. ”

"Can you blame me for this!" He Gui glared at him, and complained dissatisfiedly: "If you want to blame, you can only blame us, the new Taishou!" Who told him to say that he was a bandit! ”

The Qinzhou army does not suppress bandits, and allows bandits to run rampant, so what do you need the army to do?

The adjutant general wanted to say something, but He Gui was a superior, and after he swallowed his saliva, he didn't dare to refute, but asked: "Then, what should I do next?" ”

"No more fighting!" He Gui directly waved his hand irritably, and said with palpitations: "I almost died in the forest just now!" This bandit can't be stopped! Isn't it good to stay in the barracks! Why provoke these mountain bandits, they rob, let them fight, and they can't get in the way of us! ”

What he said was ridiculous for a soldier!

The deputy general shook his head secretly, and said: "General, Lord Taishou has issued a military order, if you don't suppress the bandits, how can you explain it?" ”

"Humph! I have my own way of this. ”

He Gui said: "Let's stay here for three or five days, and then go back to report it, and say that we can't fight, isn't it over?" ”
