Chapter 191: Brother Duel
Chapter 191: Brother Duel
The East China Sea is wide and deep, and it is surrounded by hundreds of rivers. Although the five mountains are tall, they do not reverse dirt and dust. --------- Three Kingdoms. Cao Zhi "When You Want to Travel to the South Mountain"
It is said that Jia Long thought about it for a long time, and seemed to see the beauty of becoming the king of the two rivers. It's a pity who is the cat and who is the mouse in this game, and Jia Long may have completely miscalculated.
Jia Long thought that he was acting in secret, and he would definitely be able to take Chen Long by surprise and annihilate him. Then, with the help of Liu Biao's strength, he divided Chen Long's forces equally, nourished his own territory and forces, and prepared for returning to his hometown in Yizhou in the future.
The troops led by Jia Long, except for General Cai, are all Yizhou masters. Everyone couldn't imagine that Zhang Yun would accidentally sink into the sand outside Baling City, and Jia Long thought that he was in a hurry, and after volunteering to lead the team to ambush and win a complete victory, Chen Long would definitely get carried away.
Jia Long's military style generally marches in the mountains, which quite brings Jia Long's sense of high spirit. The sharp peak of the Boundary Dragon Leader has been exposed, but as the so-called Wangshan runs a dead horse, Jia Longjun still circled the mountains for a long time, and finally came to the northern foot of the Boundary Dragon Leader.
The army rested on a gentle slope halfway up the mountain, with a steeply rising cliff overhead, and a thin gray line in the middle, leading to the western edge of the mountain. The land route between Changsha and Baling is the only way to go.
Jia Long stood on a sparse slope, looking out at the jungle on all sides and the fields below. He was resourceful, and his eyes swept over the locations suitable for ambushes, calculating where the best way to give full play to the combat power of the squad, so that Long Chen had nowhere to escape. General Zhang stood quietly beside him, also looking around, and General Cai had already found a piece of bluestone to drink and rest under the service of his own soldiers.
Jia Long and General Zhang watched for a long time, and finally settled on an ambush location. Although General Zhang nodded slightly, he had a touch of melancholy, and suddenly said: "Jia Zhi, his subordinates are stupid, why do you choose to ambush by land?" Now that the Jingzhou Navy has retreated from the Xiangjiang River due to the destruction of warships, then Chen Long only needs one warship to return to Changsha along the waterway?"
A strange smile appeared on Jia Long's white face: "General Zhang's concern is not unreasonable. But as the so-called real is virtual, and the virtual is real, although Chen Long burned the warship by luck, does he know how many warships Zhang Yun's navy has? Is there a Jingzhou navy in Dongting Lake, can he have time to investigate? Is Zhang Yun's remaining warship really retired or fake, does he dare to bet? To be honest, even I don't know much about Zhang Yun's movements. If he entered the big cave court in a small boat and was surrounded by Zhang Yunshui's army, wouldn't he catch a turtle in an urn. He laughed dryly, proud of his intelligence. The general also seemed to heed a few times, but he couldn't tell whether it was a dry laugh or a sneer.
Deep in the bushes a few hundred meters away, Long Chen secretly scolded in his heart: "Your fake dragon is a turtle." Glancing at Lu Chang, Lu Chang understood, hid in the bushes, and crossed the boundary dragon collar to go.
The two had already made an appointment, one monitored the movements of Jia Long's army, and the other reported to Huang Zhong and Zhao Yun to arrange a sneak attack, and now they heard that Jia Long decided to wait for the dragon at the northern foot of the Boundary Dragon Territory, so he had to let Lu Chang go to inform Huang Zhong and Zhao Yun, who were scheduled to ambush at the southern foot of the Boundary Dragon Territory, to cross the Boundary Dragon Territory at night and directly raid the ambush location of Jia Long's army.
Whoever is the cat and who is the rat will win or lose tonight. Chen Long was afraid of the strength of General Zhang of Nayizhou, and specially called Huang Zhong and Zhao Yun to fight in a group.
Although he knew that the answer would be revealed tonight, Long Chen still couldn't help but guess who that guy was. To be honest, Chen Long vaguely felt that Yizhou's surname Zhang was strong in martial arts, and there was only one Zhang Ren in his impression, I don't know if it would be such a coincidence? This is also the deep meaning of recruiting Zhao Yun.
To put it simply, in the blink of an eye, it was dark and the wind was high, and Jia Longjun was in the mountains that he had to pass, all of them hid their bodies and waited, and when they looked from afar, they saw a piece of lush trees, where could they see half a figure.
Seeing that Jia Long's troops had disappeared, Chen Long launched a light attack from the other side, carefully taking advantage of the darkness to cross the mountains and find the troops touched by Huang Zhong and Zhao Yun. Lu Chang, Hao Pu, and Zu Lang were all there, and when they saw the lord coming over excitedly, Huang Zhong's eyes lit up, and he knelt down on the ground and said: "The lord is above, please forgive Hansheng for being late in surrendering!" ”
Chen Long knew that Huang Zhong was referring to not agreeing to his invitation at the beginning, so he laughed and helped Huang Zhong up and said, "Why did Han Sheng say this!" If there was no good undercover agent Huang Zhong, how could my Qinglong Army easily convince Wei Yan and take Changsha! ”
Huang Zhong stood up at this time, although he was the lord and his subordinates, they all felt Chen Long's strong brotherly love. Chen Long carefully described the location of Jia Longjun's ambush, and even reconnoitred the arrangement of Jia Long and General Zhang, Zhao Yun said with a smile: "Let the fake dragon come and go tonight, and watch me peel off his fake dragon scales." ”
Chen Long said with a smile: "Don't be too careless, Zilong, I highly doubt that it is our senior brother Zhang Ren who leads the team, and when the time comes, we must not show mercy to our subordinates, and we must capture them alive!" ”
Zhao Yun smiled: "This is natural. To be honest, I've never met this senior brother, and I don't know how high his kung fu is. But the gun in my hand isn't vegetarian either. Saying that, the rainstorm pear blossom in his hand snorted slightly, as if he was responding to Zhao Yun's strong self-confidence.
Chen Longxin said, It's a pity that my gentian bright silver treasure spear is not there, otherwise I would have to let Zhang Ren taste my power. smiled at the moment: "Then Senior Brother Zhang Ren will be handed over to Senior Brother Zilong!" ”
Chen Long divided the troops into three groups, and took Lu Chang's group as a team to capture Jia Long; Huang Zhong led Hao Pu into a second team, focusing on General Cai; Zhao Yun took Zu Lang into a group of three teams to capture General Zhang.
Each team consisted of about 300 soldiers, exactly three to one. Jia Long and General Zhang led the main force of the sneak attack to ambush on the west side of the mountain road, and the specific location of General Cai is unknown, so it should be on the east side of the mountain road.
The mountains are high and the roads are slippery, and the night is like ink, not to mention that Chen Long's team only sneaks between the dense forests and cliffs, which increases the difficulty of the march. Fortunately, the mountain wind swept up, making it advantageous for Chen Long's troops to hide their tracks and smells.
Nightingales and insects chirp freely in the night, as if the night is their paradise for singing. The little hedgehog who walked at night was about to climb a small tree, when the little tree suddenly moved, and then the little hedgehog was kicked and fled into the crack in the stone, not even having the courage to look back. As the footsteps moved, the two figures gradually became clearer, and one of them lowered his voice and said, "The ghost weather in this mountain is really cold, who knows if the person surnamed Chen will come tonight?"
His accomplice made a silent gesture, and suddenly his hands and feet trembled, and a sharp serrated dagger had already slit his throat with a flash of starlight. The soldier on the other side opened his mouth in horror, but found that his throat could no longer make a sound, and he fell down in shock.
Chen Long's special soldiers were highly skilled, and slowly harvested the hidden piles of the Jia Long Army on the periphery, until they surrounded the main force of the Jia Long Army.
Chen Long calculated the time, and suddenly a whistle sounded through the jungle, and the annihilation battle against Jia Long's ambush began, for a time the arrows were like flying locusts, and the black shadows holding steel knives and daggers crossed back and forth, and the screams came and went.
Chen Long held a steel dagger, like a dragon head rushing to the front, easily dodging the sneak attack of the hidden weapon feather arrows, but the goal was to find Jia Long. Zhao Yun on the other side, still with a steel gun in his hand, seemed to be a little ineffective in the dense forest, and simply twisted the gun and rushed forward in a straight line, with such great power that the trunk of the thick bowl in front of him was wildly split, and it seemed that there was no obstruction. The soldiers around him took advantage of the majesty of Chen Long and Zhao Yun to rush forward like a devastating devastation, and Jia Long's army suffered a great setback, and his morale was low for a while.
There were about 300 people around Chen Long, forcing the enemy on the west side of the road out of the forest, and Huang Zhong in the east had also succeeded, dozens of remnants of the army poured out from the jungle in the east, just caught in the heavy siege of Chen Long's army, and was surrounded by Chen Long's archers, and then shouted: "Those who throw down their weapons will not be killed!" Those who leave their weapons will not be killed! ”
The chaotic enemy forces were instantly silent, as if they were all waiting to see how the others would react. At this sensitive moment, no one dared to speak out easily, for fear of attracting a cold arrow and dying for his life. It was inconvenient to observe in the dark, so Chen Longling lit a torch to illuminate the entire battlefield. Among the hundreds of enemy troops, there were not a few who were wounded by arrows, and the uniforms were all uniformly blue and black, and it seemed that it was impossible to see who was the leader among them.
Chen Long and Huang Zhong's side was cold for a while, but Zhao Yun's side was in full swing, when Zhao Yun's spear was like a bamboo, there was a sudden sonorous explosion, and a spear and a long snake hit the body of the rainstorm pear flower, causing Zhao Yun's figure to stagnate suddenly, and the shadow of the spear immediately rushed to his face, surging out like mercury spilling out of the ground.
Zhao Yun felt extremely familiar with the gun's momentum, and dismantled it casually, and for a while, the two spears pierced in the dense forest, but they didn't even touch a single branch next to them, and they didn't collide with each other, but it was like a marksmanship performance, and it was difficult to distinguish the winner from the winner in fifty or sixty moves. Zhao Yun's team had also driven the remnants of Jia Long's army to the outer mountain roads, and there were only more than 100 people left in Jia Long's army, which were compressed into an encirclement of hundreds of torches and strong crossbows.
Chen Long and Huang Zhong saw that the big thing had been accomplished, so they let Lu Chang take over and continue to do the work of persuasion, and they and Huang Zhong went to the vicinity of Zhao Yun's battle circle, Huang Zhong saw that Zhao Yun was skilled in martial arts, and secretly praised him, stroked his beard, and said: "Lord, why do I think these two people's kung fu are so similar!" ”
Chen Long laughed loudly, and suddenly shouted, "Is it General Zhang Renzhang of Yizhou in the field?"
The black-clothed man opposite Zhao Yun did not have messy marksmanship, but his figure paused, his eyes swept over Chen Long and Huang Zhong under the torchlight, and quickly assessed the strength of the two. Seeing that the two of them were calm and relaxed, they couldn't help but sigh in their hearts, they were defeated and lost tonight, these people's martial arts are not under them, and I am afraid it will be difficult to escape tonight.
Zhang Ren's momentum declined, but Zhao Yun was more imposing, a treasure spear dance was impenetrable, and Tong Yuan's personal marksmanship was at hand. Zhang Ren recognized the marksmanship, and suddenly praised loudly: "The friend on the other side is so handsome in marksmanship, who are you?"
Chen Long laughed and said: "Good senior brother learned that you are opposite your third junior brother Zhao Yun, and I am your fourth junior brother Chen Long, senior brother and brother meet each other, why don't you stop fighting and talk affectionately!" ”
Zhang Ren's gun did not stop, and he said loudly: "Since you are a senior brother, and it is not too late to talk after winning the gun in my hand!" As soon as he said that, the sound of chirping birds came from the night sky, and it turned out to be that trick of a hundred birds and a phoenix.
Chen Long was slightly angry, knowing that Zhang Ren had a stubborn personality and it was inconvenient for him to help Zhao Yun, so as not to affect Zhao Yun's confidence, so he roared: "Zilong, don't show mercy to your subordinates, let Senior Brother taste your authentic Hundred Birds and Phoenix!" ”
