Yan Chongwu, who 'came back from the dead', felt a little bored after watching the 'sharing of joys and sorrows' between the Marquis of Pingbei and his own soldiers. He turned his head, glanced at Shen Gui, who was in high spirits, and asked impatiently:

"We have spent so much effort and created momentum for a Nankang secret spy for so long, isn't it just to turn the tiger away from the mountain in the final analysis? Now that the city defense of the East Customs has been empty, let's not take the opportunity to seize the customs, how can we still have spare time to stay here and watch those people push grain carts? ”

Shen Guiyi pointed to Pingbei Hou, whose hair was all mud, and said to Yan Chongwu disdainfully:

"You and this old man have been old rivals for many years, have you ever seen him personally lead a large army and enter my northern territory for half a step? If it hadn't been for us, how could he have made such a desperate decision? ”

Yan Chongwu thought about it a little and found that it was indeed as Shen Gui said. Guo Xiaoping has always sought stability with his troops, and has never taken half a step north of the East Customs for many years; Even if a small force is sent to feint to disturb and probe the truth, other young generals will always be dispatched, and the number of troops led by each one will definitely not exceed 1,000.

Today, the Pingbei Army has already poured out of the nest, and in order to speed up the march, it even threw off the grain and grass baggage, causing the three armies to disintegrate on their own, and they could not care about each other; The most rare thing is that Guo Xiao, the Marquis of Pingbei, even led the guards to clear the grain road in person, which is a God-given opportunity that he never dreamed of. From this point of view, the arrangement before Shen Gui was really not useless.

"I just wanted to cut off the grain, but I didn't think about it, but a big fish crashed into the net. Hey, this is calculated, but the most difficult thing to calculate is the human heart......"

Shen Gui looked at Guo Xiao's back and muttered a sigh of emotion.

"What are you still nagging about? Now this place is full of mud, they want to escape nowhere to escape, let's rush down and cut it hard, and then loot and burn the materials, take advantage of the situation to turn around and turn back to the East Customs, take advantage of the weakness to enter and seize the customs in hand, in this way, even if the 150,000 lives of the Pingbei army are completely left in Fengjing. ”

"Not to mention anything else, just these nearly 100,000 logistics troops, how many of us can kill? Don't look at these people's auxiliaries on the battlefield, as cowardly and incompetent as lambs to be slaughtered, but at this time, in the face of such a huge gap in numbers between the two sides, they can still have some courage under the leadership of Guo Xiao. At that time, who became the prey and who was the hunter was between the two words. What's more, even if we wipe out the team of 100,000 people now, plus the old man Guo Xiao, it is still too early to take the East Customs. ”

Yan Chongwu puffed his teeth vigorously, frowned tightly, and said:

"Then let them go like that, according to your wishes?"

When Shen Gui heard this, he looked at the scene of 'helping the old and the young' on the official road, and laughed gloomily:

"Heh, these people are dead and dead, and all that remains is the question of when and where they died and how many people were buried."

In fact, Shen Gui's concern, in addition to the difference in the number of people between the two parties, is also this muddy land. At this time, the opponent's chariots and soldiers could not move freely, and their own soldiers were no better. Moreover, once the sergeants on both sides are entangled and fighting, their own soldiers still have all kinds of thoughts in their hearts, but the other side soldiers no longer have any way to retreat. And this battle of trapped beasts is often the most dangerous, if you can wait a little longer, you should be able to avoid a lot of meaningless casualties.

Between a few ups and downs, Shen Gui shuttled back and forth in the forest. After he returned to Yan Chongwu's side again, he raised his chin towards him:

"The so-called one blow, then decline, three and exhaustion. There is a small hill not far away, which is quite high. In my opinion, they will spend the night there. Let's go over there first, and leave it to my brothers. ”

After speaking, Shen Gui took the lead and flew away in the northeast direction. Seeing this, Yan Chongwu didn't ask much, tied the straw sandals in his hand around his waist, jumped off the tree like a black bear, and chased Shen Gui's back.

After Shen Gui and Yan Chongwu's figures disappeared, Fourteen jumped directly to the treetops where Shen Gui was standing. After stabilizing his body, he took out a black red silk flying knife from behind his waist......

"Whoosh......"

The head dart of the fourteenth shot, with a bright red silk at the end, was like a heavenly fire, and instantly pierced into the Pingbei Hou Guard Battalion Commander who was commanding the people, and the almost invisible neck guard gap! This red silk dart is really an earth-shattering dart! At this time, the distance between the two sides was nearly 100 steps, and the target was directly hit under the fourteenth and first rounds, and the strength and precision of its wrist kung fu were really vividly displayed under this dart!

And the commander of the personal guard battalion also received a great favor from the fourteenth, and did not suffer any crime, but his throat shook a few times in vain, and then he died.

'Knock knock! ’

At the moment when this red silk dart suddenly appeared, several Pingbei Hou guards who reacted quickly had already sounded the warning gong in their hands. Pingbei Hou Guo Xiaozhen is worthy of a battle-hardened veteran, he first identified the location of the enemy's ambush in an instant according to the death of the commander of the guard; Then a short body hid in the back of the grain cart, and at the same time commanded loudly in a hoarse old voice:

"Don't mess around, everyone! Don't mess around! All of them hid on the southwest side of the grain truck...... Damn, left-hand side left-hand side! The personal guard battalion can move and form a team on its own, and touch the periphery of the woods in the northwest direction to search for the traces of thieves, and remember not to enter the forest and go deep out, so as not to be ambushed. The chief officer of the Punishment Army! Spread a certain commander's order, anyone who escapes from the battle and shouts loudly to disrupt our army's letter can be killed in front of the battle, and there is no need to report it to a certain person in advance! ”

From a few sentences, it can be seen that Guo Xiao, Marquis of Pingbei, is worthy of the title of 'famous general in the world'. Although he has never taken risks in his life, he really knows everything about military affairs. The so-called 'good fighters have no outstanding merits, no miraculous victories, no wisdom and fame, and no brave feats', so it seems that Guo Xiao is ranked among the world's famous generals, and he really has some knowledge.

After all, Guo Xiao has not had any outstanding achievements that people talk about to this day!

Now, with just a few words, he let the soldiers and people present know what they should do; In addition, he has strict military discipline on weekdays, so in addition to being a little flustered at the beginning, after he commanded loudly, everyone was able to settle down a little and go their own way.

And the dozen or so young men on the winter solstice, at the moment when the other party was panicked, each of them only had time to throw three darts at most. Except for the three darts of the fourteen shots, all of which hit the enemy, the others more or less missed one or two slashes.

Of course, this can't be blamed for their poor dart skills, because the targets they chose were all the personal guards of the Pingbei Marshal wearing armor, and the distance between the two sides was too far, even if there was a slight deviation, it would inevitably be tied to the thick armor.

Therefore, this long-planned ambush had time to result in the lives of less than twenty enemies, and was touched by the rest of the guards of their respective armies to the edge of the woods.

At this time, Fourteen did not love to fight, raised his right hand and waved, and more than a dozen black figures flew into the depths of the jungle. At the same time, a few darts flew out at random as if it were a lottery where the flowers and trees were shaking.

In this way, the guards who came to search the forest, after leaving behind a few more corpses of their comrades, once again retreated to the official road in disgrace.

"Yu Junhou, just now we were ordered to enter the forest to search, but because the other party withdrew very quickly, we didn't dare to chase after us under the orders of the commander, so we couldn't ......"

Pingbei Hou Guo Xiao was inspecting the red silk dart that cost the life of the battalion commander in detail at this time, and after hearing the report, he raised his right hand, raised the dart in front of the other party, and said flatly:

"Judging by the style of this dart, the people who attacked us should be just some reckless people in the three roads of the north, but there is nothing to worry about. Ben Shuai has long felt that something is wrong, this time the pioneer battalion attack is too smooth, Ben Shuai has always been a little worried in his heart, is it that we have won the full set of others? Therefore, this will order Liang Jing to lead the Chinese army on his behalf, and the commander will personally lead the troops to the back, in case the three roads in the north will go around and disturb our army's grain road. didn't expect that what was waiting at this time was these Jianghu people who only knew how to hide their heads and show their tails and secretly ambush...... Could it be that he really has no generals to send and no soldiers to send at this time? ”

The personal guard who returned stood in place with an embarrassed expression, and he didn't have any ideas when he answered, and he seemed incompetent if he didn't answer, so he had to pat himself casually:

"The young marshal was young and heroic, General Feng used his soldiers like a god, and killed 30,000 enemy troops with only one fire, and by the way, he also frightened Zhang Huangling's bitter gall, and fled back to Fengjing without firing an arrow, and now he is still cowering in the city, not daring to go out half a step. Although some rivers and lakes are recklessly attacking our army's grain routes today, according to the footprints left in the forest and the traces left by the trees, there are no more than 20 people who come. Could it be that our army of nearly 100,000 will not be captured by so many cats and dogs? Hahahaha......"

After Guo Xiao listened to the words of the guard, he also stroked his mud-stained beard and nodded. Yes, whoever wants to defeat the strong with the weak must avoid facing each other head-on and foolishly starting a war of attrition. And now the three roads in Youbei are in a weak position, and if you want to turn defeat into victory, you can only cut off your own grain road. But at this time, none of the soldiers in Youbei were seen, but only a few people from the rivers and lakes came, and it seemed that he was really a little too cautious.

"Okay, okay, since the other party has retreated, let's hurry up and get on the road. According to the map of the dark north drawn by the scouts, thirty miles further on, there is a small hill. The ground is quite high, and I command all the soldiers, that we will rest there tonight. After dawn tomorrow, this official road should be much easier......"

The guard nodded, and after passing the order, everyone gritted their teeth again, and slowly continued to hurry up with difficulty.

When passing by the corpse of the battalion commander, the old commander Guo Xiao took out his sword, personally squatted down, cut off the bun of the battalion commander of the guard, put it in his arms, turned around and said to the guard just now:

"Bury the body of your battalion commander at the edge of the woods, and make a monument with a sword, and pay tribute with a helmet. After I regain the lost territory in the north, the old man will personally hold a funeral for him! ”
