831. Ambush on the mountain road
The mountain is steep, similar to most of the peaks on Quang Nam West Road. The side facing the road is even more bare and rocky.
"Follow the book!"
Zhu Ming? Staring at the mountain for a few seconds, he turned his horse's head and ran backwards again.
Five hundred light horsemen followed closely.
After about a few hundred meters, the vegetation can finally be seen on the mountain. The mountain is not as steep as it was at the bend.
"Abandon the horse and go up the mountain!"
Zhu Ming? He shouted with a gun, turned over and dismounted.
The deputy head of the regiment on the side couldn't help frowning, "Commander, are you sure we abandon the horse?" If you abandon your horse, won't you be caught up by the monkeys of the Yue Li Dynasty? ”
Zhu Ming? Looking to the north, there are continuous or independent mountains in the wilderness and grassland.
He said, "We can't ride horses in the mountains, and neither can the monkeys in the Yue Li Dynasty. Competing for foot strength, are we still afraid that they won't succeed? ”
With that, he slapped his war horse on the buttocks.
The war horse seemed to understand and ran north along the official road.
The deputy head of the regiment was still frowning, "But if there are no war horses, it will be difficult for us to deal with these Yue Li Dynasty monkeys." ”
Zhu Ming? He said deeply: "If you are caught up by them, you will fight to the death with them...... Even if only ten brothers return to Guwanzhai, let's ...... The task was also accomplished. ”
Then he said no more and went up the hill.
The deputy head of the regiment looked at him, his eyes gradually became firm, he also turned over and dismounted, patted the war horse away, and shouted: "All brothers, abandon the horse and go up the mountain!" ”
The five hundred guards of Yongping Village abandoned their horses and climbed towards the mountain.
And this news quickly reached Chen Guojun's ears.
After hearing the scout's words about the hundreds of Song troops in front of him suddenly disappearing, this member of the royal family of the Yue Li Dynasty just chuckled and looked at the mountains stretching beside him.
Since the Song army ran here, it was impossible for them to withdraw like this. It didn't make sense, so he guessed that Song Jun must be hiding.
Chen Guojun chuckled and said to himself, "Do you want to block my 20,000 army with just a few hundred soldiers?" ”
Perhaps out of great self-confidence, the number of soldiers in the right army he led now was not as large as that of the left army led by his lieutenant.
"Ordered the two generals of the Tiger Army, Wu Bulie and Qi Anong, and let them lead their subordinates into the mountains to sweep. When it encounters the Song army, it will be destroyed immediately! Chen Guojun said to the side of the herald.
Then, he whipped and continued to gallop in the direction of Guwanzhai.
Just a mile away, he could even imagine where Song Jun climbed the mountain.
Two groups of Yue Li Dynasty soldiers left the ranks of the army.
When he arrived at the corner of the mountain range next to Deguan Road, Chen Guojun looked up and looked up, "Stop!" ”
He grabbed the reins, and the horse neighed.
The army behind followed and slowly stopped advancing.
Chen Guojun was a fierce general who could fight well in the territory of the Yue Li Dynasty, and he was also a famous general. He could see where the best place was for an ambush.
Right now, he was stopped in front of the best place to ambush.
Wu Buyeol and Qi Anong each walked to the front with a thousand people, and then drove their horses to Chen Guojun.
Chen Guojun pointed to the mountain with a horsewhip and said: "The Song army disappeared here, look at the terrain, and cross this corner, it is the most suitable place for the Song army to ambush." Although there are only a few hundred of them, there are foreign objects such as thunder in the Song army, so we can't be careless. The two of you lead the army to abandon their horses, go around this corner, and do not stop when they see the chaotic horseshoe prints on the ground, and go up the mountain a few hundred meters further. If it is not as expected by this commander, then hundreds of Song troops are watching us from the mountains at this time, and you must encircle and annihilate them. ”
"Yes!"
The two generals of the Yue Li Army hurriedly surrendered their orders. Then, they each took their subordinates and continued along the official road.
Chen Guojun led the army to stay in place. looked at the mountain, and the corners of his mouth hooked up a slight sneer.
He is indeed a general. Zhu Ming? did not escape his speculation.
And at this moment, on the mountain, Zhu Ming? led five hundred Song troops to hide in the vegetation, and they were indeed secretly watching the continuous Yue Li Dynasty army below.
Seeing that the army of the Yue Li Dynasty suddenly stopped, Zhu Ming? 's face was not very good-looking, and the deputy general next to him was even more anxious, "Commander, these monkeys of the Yue Li Dynasty should be the intention of the rebels to discover us, how can this be good?" ”
After they climbed the mountain, they had already planted a lot of thunderstorms in this short period of time, and they did have the idea of blowing up the cliff to block Li Dajun.
But now that the army of the Yue Li Dynasty has stopped, it is obviously no longer possible for these mines to cause much damage to the army of Yue Li.
Zhu Ming? His eyes fell on the two armies in front of the Yue Li Dynasty's army, and he watched them slowly approach the corner at the foot of the mountain.
As soon as the thunder is detonated, the foot of the mountain will be immediately covered with rocks.
But if you only bomb these two thousand-strong troops, it is a bit of a pity.
Zhu Ming? His eyes were firmly fixed on the Yue Li army under the mountain, and he did not speak.
The deputy head of the regiment couldn't help but become more and more anxious beside him.
Seeing that there were already many people in front of the army led by Wu Bulie and Qi Anun, he couldn't help but say again: "Regiment Commander, let's detonate it now!" ”
"Wait!"
Zhu Ming? "Wait! What we have to do is delay them! ”
Now that it is detonated, even if it can kill many soldiers in Wu Buyeo and Qi Anong's army, it is impossible to stop Chen Guojun's army for long.
And if it is not detonated and the hole cards are not revealed, Chen Guojun will not dare to lead the army forward easily.
Zhu Ming? I want to fight for every second. He had already vaguely guessed that Chen Guojun should have anticipated his intentions.
It is no secret that the Great Song Dynasty has thunder. Moreover, before the Great Song Dynasty repaired roads, it was not uncommon for the commander of the Yue Li Dynasty to have heard of the power of the thunder.
At this time, it is better not to explode.
Seeing that, the soldiers led by Wu Bulie and Qi Anon were about to all go around the corner.
The front soldiers have already arrived before Zhu Ming? Where they climbed.
There were messy horseshoe prints on the ground.
Wu Buyeo and Qi Anon only pretended not to see each other and continued to lead the soldiers forward.
In the army of the Yue Li Dynasty, Chen Guojun watched his army disappear around the corner, and smiled in his mouth, "The generals of this Great Song Dynasty army are very patient, but, what can they do?" ”
He sent only 2,000 men to clear the way.
Even if the Song army is in ambush, the most they think will be lost by hundreds of them! And that's already the biggest estimate.
And only waited for Wu Bulie and Qi Anong to lead the army to climb the mountain, Chen Guojun felt that the Song army hiding in the mountain had no way to retreat.
"Captain!"
On the mountain, look at Zhu Ming? Not yet ordered. The deputy head of the regiment was already in a hurry, and reminded again.
If you don't blow it up, you won't even be able to blow up a single hair.
Zhu Ming? Narrowing his eyes slightly, he detonated the two lines of thunder on the left.
Immediately a herald ran away.
Then there was a boom.
The cliff was filled with smoke and dust.
The whole mountain seemed to shake slightly.
Many large gray-brown stones were blown apart and tumbled down the official road below.
The Yue Li soldiers below were shocked, and in an instant they were shouting and hurriedly running to the front.
But there are still people who are crushed under boulders, or hit by rubble, and they are miserable.
It's just that there aren't many people who are hit.
The deputy head of the regiment stared at his head, slammed his fist on the ground angrily, and shouted: "It's too late! ”
He is undoubtedly interested in Zhu Ming? Very dissatisfied.
If it's not Zhu Ming? After hesitating, it was absolutely impossible to kill only such a few people when most of the two Yue Li soldiers crossed the corner.
Just killed three or two big birds and small birds in the back, no matter how you look at it, it's all a mistake.
Not far away, Chen Guojun watched the boulder finally fall on the mountain, and the corners of his mouth chuckled, "Finally, I can't help it?" ”
There was a look of contempt in his eyes.
Zhu Ming? Waiting until this time to detonate, missing the best time, is undoubtedly very indecisive.
This is a big taboo for generals.
And on the mountain, Zhu Ming? There was not much annoyance on his face, and he only said: "I will need to leave ten dead soldiers, who wants to stay?" ”
Immediately behind him, a personal guard said: "Commander, I am willing to stay!" ”
"Commander, I'm willing to stay!"
They are not forbidden troops and have not been on the battlefield. At this time, many people were pale, but such voices came and went.
After leaving the village, knowing that they would have to face the army of 50,000 Yue Li Dynasty, many people were ready to die in battle.
There is no shortage of heroes in this era.
Zhu Ming? Turning around, he called the names of ten people. These ten people are all his personal guards, and they are all familiar with him.
Then, he said: "You stay here and continue to ambush, and when the Yue Li soldiers move away the stones of the official road and advance again, they will detonate the remaining thunderbolts." ”
"The rest of the people, prepare to retreat with Ben!"
