Chapter 673: Ambush Battle in the Northern Mountains

However, it was said that after Chen Zhi's unit arrived in the territory of Yi County, in order to capture Yi County by surprise, he disembarked and landed on the shore. Chen Zhi adopted Deng Ai's plan to lure the enemy, and asked Mu Shun to take 2,000 people to lure the enemy outside the city of Yixian.

Huang Jie, the guard general of Yixian County, saw that the Liangzhou army was very small in number, and he looked like a rabble, and he did not doubt him in his heart. Huang Jie immediately set up 3,000 soldiers and horses, and then went out of the city to engage the Liangzhou army.

Seeing that the soldiers and horses of the Jingzhou army were coming out of the city to kill, Mu Shun immediately led his soldiers to scatter his legs. Huang Shot didn't know what the plan was, and chased after the attack. The result...... Huang shot into an ambush by the Liangzhou army, and he himself was captured by the Liangzhou army.

Because ...... The main general Huang shot and was captured by the Liangzhou army. Therefore, the Liangzhou Army and Navy Division took the county seat of Yi without blood. The special identity of Huang Jie is also known to Chen Zhi, Deng Ai, Mu Shun, and Ren Kui.

Deng Ai expected that Huang Zu of Xiling City would definitely send reinforcements from Xiling City to rescue Huang Jian and rescue Yi County. After all, Huang Jie is the only son of Huang Zu.

In the end, Deng Ai once again made his statement, but the ambush troops were in the dense forest in the north of the city of Yixian County, and all the reinforcements of Xiling City were wiped out here. Chen Zhi thought about it for a while, and then happily adopted Deng Ai's suggestion.

The Liangzhou army raised 15,000 troops, divided into three routes, and ambushed in the east, west, and south directions of the dense forest. Chen Zhi and Deng Ai ambushed the soldiers on the south side; Mu Shun ambushed his troops on the west side of the dense forest; Ren Kui ambushed his troops on the east side of the dense forest.

The three-way army quietly ambushed in the dense forest, waiting for the arrival of reinforcements from Xiling City.

………

Hearing the news reported by the Liangzhou Army, Chen Zhi and Deng Ai were immediately overjoyed. It turned out that the reinforcements from Xiling City really rushed south to rescue Yi County.

About a quarter of an hour later, the sound of a large group of people and horses came from outside the dense forest. The reinforcements of Xiling City had advanced to two hundred paces beyond the dense forest.

The reinforcements of Xiling City, in order to rush to the county seat as soon as possible, naturally did not dare to slack off, and did not send an advance force to explore the way in the dense forest. What's more...... In the opinion of the Xiling City reinforcements, the county town should still be in the hands of the Jingzhou army, and has not yet been broken by the Liangzhou army.

The reinforcements of Xiling City rushed all the way to the dense forest, and they were getting closer and closer to the ambush of the Liangzhou army. Two hundred steps...... One hundred steps...... Fifty steps!

Just as the reinforcements from Xiling City advanced to thirty paces, they suddenly ...... There seemed to be some different kind of sound, breaking the sound of the march of the troops.

Immediately after, in just a moment's interval, there were one after another, incessant, heart-rending screams, which spread from the reinforcements of Xiling City.

At this moment, countless arrows flew out of the dense forest and fiercely plunged into the military array of Xiling City reinforcements. Although, it was only a short period of three or five breaths, the reinforcements of Xiling City, those who were killed by arrows, were countless.

Seeing that something was wrong, Huang Zu's deputy general immediately handed down the general's order and ordered the army to retreat. But...... At this time, the reinforcement army of Xiling City had already been shattered and scattered by the arrows of the Liangzhou army, how could it retreat in a uniform and orderly manner?

The reinforcements of Xiling City had already traveled forty miles all the way to the dense forest in the north of Yixian County, and they were already exhausted.

Now, it was a sudden attack by the Liangzhou army, and the reinforcements of Xiling City were tired and panicked, and they immediately scattered and fled, how could they take care of the general order of the main general.

Seeing that the reinforcements in Xiling City were defeated like a mountain, Huang Zu's deputy general didn't care about them, and immediately turned his horse's head and galloped towards the rear. In the opinion of Huang Zu's lieutenant general...... At the moment, it is still important to save his life, as for the life and death of Huang Taishou's son Huang Shot, he obviously has no time to deal with it.

Just when the reinforcements of Xiling City began to scatter and flee. Seeing that the time was ripe, Chen Zhi and Deng Ai immediately commanded the soldiers and rushed in the direction of the defeated troops in Xiling City.

The tired reinforcements of Xiling City, how can they escape faster...... The Liangzhou army ambushed the soldiers who had been working for a long time.

Soon, the Liangzhou army led by Chen Zhi and Deng Ai ambushed the soldiers and caught up with the defeated troops of Xiling City, and rushed into the defeated army of Xiling City.

Although the Liangzhou Army and Naval Division is not very good at land warfare, it is still more than enough to deal with a defeated army like Xiling City reinforcements. In addition, with Chen Zhi and Deng Ai, two generals who can fight well, the land combat ability of the Liangzhou Army and Naval Division is naturally not to be underestimated.

Under the leadership of Chen Zhi and Deng Ai, the Liangzhou Army and Water Division, with a murderous and menacing tail, pursued and killed the defeated soldiers of Xiling City. The Liangzhou Army and Naval Division, when he meets someone, he will cut it, and kill it when he sees someone, and he will kill the defeated soldiers of Xiling City...... Crying dad and calling mother, I only hate that I have two legs.

The reinforcements of Xiling City, once defeated, have long been demoralized and the morale of the army has collapsed, not to mention the determination to fight hard. They only care about running for their lives, so how can they have any thoughts about fighting.

Those Xiling City reinforcements who didn't have time to escape immediately knelt on the ground, begging for mercy with tears in their eyes. Seeing this, the Liangzhou military and naval divisions naturally did not rush to kill them all.

Besides, Huang Zu's lieutenant general, with his own personal guards and a small number of defeated soldiers, ran all the way for nearly ten miles, and he had already left behind the brigade of Xiling City reinforcements. At the same time, the shouting and killing of the Liangzhou army behind him was also faintly audible, and the deputy general breathed a sigh of relief.

But at this moment, just when the deputy thought he could escape. All of a sudden...... On the right and left sides of the col, a group of soldiers and horses, screaming and killing, rushed to kill. These two soldiers and horses are Mu Shun and Ren Kui, who ambushed the soldiers here.

The deputy general was immediately stunned in place, looking at the soldiers and horses of the Liangzhou army rushing to kill in disbelief, forgetting to whip the horse and flee for his life. But the truth is, there is no way for him to escape.

In an instant, Mu Shun and Ren Kui led the troops to the front. Before the lieutenant could react, Ren Kui swung a knife and fell under the horse.

The deputy general's personal guards, as well as the small number of defeated soldiers in Xiling City, did not hesitate at all, and immediately fell to the ground and begged for mercy, and their movements were really skilled.

After Mu Shun and Ren Kui received this defeat, they led their troops to the south. By the time the two of them rushed to the main battlefield, the Liangzhou Army and Water Division led by Chen Zhi and Deng Ai had already defeated Xiling City, and there were few left.

Seeing that there was a brigade of the Liangzhou army outflanking and killing, the defeated soldiers of Xiling City in the battlefield could no longer escape, so they had to give up resistance.

In this ambush battle, which lasted more than three quarters of an hour, the Liangzhou army lost nearly 1,000 people, beheaded more than 7,000 enemy soldiers, and the remaining enemy soldiers became prisoners.

Subsequently, Chen Zhi and Deng Ai escorted the captives and returned to the county seat.
