Chapter Ninety-Seven: Ambushing the Court Personnel

"Today is the third day, and I don't know if the marshal has encountered the enemy army in the domestic city......" In the camp, Su Xingchen was bowing his head and pondering in the main general's tent!

Four days ago, the court general Laihu'er launched a fierce attack on Pyongyang City according to the agreement with Du Ruhui, and Pyongyang City was in danger in one day, and Goguryeo King Gao Yuan had no choice but to send a letter of help to his Moli Zhiyuan Taizuo, hoping that Yuan Taizuo would lead troops to support!

Everything was as agreed by the two sides, and after receiving the information that Pyongyang City had sent a request for help, Su Shang immediately ordered 13,000 troops and personally led a large army to attack the domestic city!

And Su Xingchen was left behind, he led 5,000 soldiers to guard the camp of Hunshui, to hold the retreat for the allied army, and also to transport the prisoners of the people, grain and grass materials to Datong Island, at the same time, he must be ready to lead the army into Pyongyang City to collect all kinds of talents and materials when the court army breaks through Pyongyang City!

After the court army began to attack Pyongyang City four days ago, because the attack on the first day was too fierce, and the court army also suffered serious casualties, so on the second day after the siege, Laihu'er specially asked the army to stop the siege, rested for a day, and only attacked again on the third day, however, the intensity of the attack also slowed down!

Although the intensity of the attack has become smaller, in the past two days, Laihu'er has divided the army into three parts and attacked the city in turn, twelve hours a day.

After two days and two nights of attack, the soldiers in Pyongyang City were seriously consumed, and the soldiers of the Sui Army repeatedly attacked the head of Pyongyang City, although they were driven down again at the last moment, but according to this situation, if Gao Yuan did not raise the flag and surrender, Pyongyang City would definitely be broken by Laihu'er within two days!

"It seems that I have to let the fleet go, and only by getting close to Pyongyang City can I enter Pyongyang City as soon as Pyongyang City is broken......"

Su Xingchen considered the various arrangements for the Allied army to enter Pyongyang City after the city of Pyongyang was broken, and there were really too many things to collect after the Allied army entered the city, not only money, grain, grass, livestock, war horses, weapons and armor needed to be collected, but also all kinds of craftsmen and young people, and many prisoners, so he had to think carefully and try to make the most perfect decision!

Just then, a scout soldier trotted in after guarding the messenger of his own soldiers!

The scout soldiers gave Su Xingchen a standard military salute, "Report to the general, our team found a team of court officials, a total of eleven people, all dressed in disguise, I heard that they were going to give a decree to General Laihu'er!" At the moment, our captain is secretly following, please instruct the general! ”

"The marshal's worries are really good! It seems that this court really does not intend to break through the city of Pyongyang! If the marshal hadn't made arrangements in advance, the major events of the Confederate forces would have delayed them! Or the marshal wise! Su Xingchen sighed secretly, thought about it, and said with a smile: "You wait!"

Then, with a wave of his hand, he recruited the guards in, "Go, find Captain Wang Peng from the pro-barracks!" ”

"Yes!" The pro-soldiers ran out quickly!

Soon, Wang Peng followed the pro-soldiers and ran in quickly, "Hello general, Wang Peng, the captain of the pro-military battalion, is here to report!" Please give the order of the general to press the platoon mission! ”

"Captain Wang Peng, you immediately lead a scout squadron, follow this scout brother to arrest people, and be sure to bring back all the court personnel in that team! Also, keep our identities strictly confidential! ”

"Yes! I'm going to do it right away! ”

……

Half an hour later, Wang Peng led a team of fifty people, and under the leadership of the messenger scout, about twenty miles away from the Sui army camp, found the scout team that was tracking the court team!

"How? Where have they arrived now? ”

"Report to the general, they have reached five miles away, there are eleven people in total, all on horseback!"

"That can only ambush them! Otherwise, it's easy for someone to run away! Wang Peng secretly thought, he wanted to set up an ambush on the spot, looked around, and found that this place is not very suitable for ambushes, here is relatively flat everywhere, the weeds and shrubs are not high, it is really impossible to ambush people, only there is a small forest on the left side of the road, but it is a little far away from the road, not suitable for ambush at all!

Suddenly, Wang Peng laughed, and he remembered a place that was very suitable for ambush. There is a small hill about five miles away from here, which is also the only way to the Sui army camp, and the road is lined with weeds and trees, which is very suitable for stumbling horses and ropes to ambush the cavalry!

"I'm going to ambush them on a hill five miles away, and now we'll go and prepare. This captain, your team continues to follow them secretly, and if there is any accident, you will immediately send a signal to notify! ”

"Yes!"

Soon, Wang Peng led the team to the small mountain, which is really suitable as an ambush place, there is a slope canyon about fifteen zhang long in the middle of the small mountain, the slope on both sides is a little steep, the weeds and shrubs on it are overgrown, not very suitable for climbing, the canyon is not big, the middle is just a road less than one zhang wide, there is a large area of woods at both ends of the canyon, the trees are tall, very lush!

Wang Peng observed around, didn't think much about it, and immediately gave everyone a task, "Quick!" Go ahead and set up a trap ambush! Three tripping ropes are placed at each end of the canyon, one team is responsible for the entrance, the second team and the third team are responsible for the exit, and the fourth team and the fifth team are ambushed on the steep slopes on both sides of the canyon, waiting with strong bows, and no one can be let go! ”

"Yes!" Everyone responded in unison and acted separately!

Placing a tripping rope is as simple as tying one end of the rope tightly to a tree, wrapping the other end around a tree across the road for pulling, and digging a shallow ditch in the middle of the rope and covering it with something as long as it is not easy for people to see.

The movement of the crowd was fast, and in less than a quarter of an hour, the traps and ropes had been placed!

At this time, one of the scouts of the tracking team arrived on horseback, "Report to the general, the target is very fast, and it has reached four miles away!" ”

When Wang Peng heard this, he thought that it would come very quickly, and immediately ordered: "Everyone will be in ambush immediately!"

"Da Da Da! Da-da-da-da! ”

The sound of hurried horses' hooves came, from far and near, from small to large, and occasionally mixed with a few "Drive!" Drive! "The shout! The court personnel came quickly, and after a while, a team of eleven people appeared in front of the hill!

All of them were dressed in Goguryeo national costumes, one of them was obese, dressed as a rich man, and the others were dressed as warriors, accompanied by the fat man, looking like a rich man with a bodyguard entourage!

They galloped all the way, and soon came to the front of the canyon, all of them looking tired and dusty, but they had no intention of stopping to rest and investigate!

"Up!"

Just when their group of eleven people was about to rush out of the mouth of the canyon, Wang Peng shouted, and several people who were responsible for pulling the ropes immediately pulled the ropes, and the three thick ropes were instantly pulled up half a person high, and they appeared above the war horses of the court personnel!

"Be careful! There is a horse rope interception ahead! ”

The entourage dressed as a warrior shouted loudly, but unfortunately, the speed of the war horse was too fast, and the short distance passed in an instant, and they didn't have time to slow down the war horse, so they rushed straight over!

The stumbling horse rope was higher than the war horse, and it did not have any effect on the war horse they stepped on, the war horse was still galloping, but eleven of them hit the tripping horse rope at high speed, and the tripping horse rope was bent forward at once, but after an instant, it rebounded proudly, and eleven people flew backwards under the interaction of the tripping horse rope and speed!

"Smack! Syllable! Smack......"

Eleven sounds in a row, eleven people fell to the ground in the air one after another, but the high-speed reaction force was still strong, and they rolled several times in a row before stopping!

"Quick! Blindfold them and tie them up! ”

With a shout, more than a dozen big men jumped down the slopes on both sides of the canyon, they held short ropes, and their movements were fast, and after a while, they tied up all the court personnel who had not yet recovered from the fall!
