Chapter 352: Rain in the Pine Desert (18)
Huangzhang Valley, is a mountain artery connecting Khitan Liucheng and the new city, the geography is long and narrow shape, where the two mountain peaks are connected, the direction is very tortuous, can see a hundred meters away at a glance, are rare, only about dozens of zhang wide, the narrowest place, can only accommodate two carriages in parallel, the ground is the Gobi rocks, the height is undulating, the four walls are steep, the mountains and rocks are craggy, between the peaks and ravines, there are sometimes clusters of red pine forests and poplar trees, they are also the only bright colors in the Huangzhang Valley.
After Ma Renjie arrived with his troops, he did not stop for a moment, but plunged into the valley, and the speed of the march was greatly reduced, and the horses could only lead and walk, and he observed as he walked, and the more he looked, the more frightened he became.
"Su Renshi found a good coffin board for Li Qianzhong's house" Zong Huaichang said angrily, looking very expectant, "As long as you bring him in, block the two ends, and let him go down to earth, he won't be able to run out in three or two days, and it's not concocted by us."
"The coffin board is a good coffin board, but it is not easy to nail these boards up and hammer them to death" Ma Renjie's face was as gloomy as ever, and he raised his eyes to look at the steep slopes on all sides, thinking about the most labor-saving ambush method.
"Take a walk, find a more gentle place, climb up, and then disperse, it's not difficult" Yan Bandit Stone no longer looked around, somehow, there was only a long strip of blue sky left on the canyon, which always made him feel insecure.
Ma Renjie nodded silently, raised his hand and waved his horsewhip.
Not only did the speed slow down, but the formation and formation were also pulled apart by the messy terrain, and they could not look at each other, they belonged to the same outpost, the front team was already at the next bend, and the rear team was still moving forward in the narrow road, and when they entered the valley, the herald could not ride horses, but could only shout at the top of their voices to convey orders.
The sun rises and the moon sets, nine bends and eighteen bends, walked for more than a day, all the parts of the Ma Ren Festival have entered the Huangzhang Valley, Yan Bandit Stone has finally found a hearty ambush site, the mountain is gentle here, the field of vision is broad, the best thing is that there is a large area of dense red pine forest, enough to accommodate nearly 10,000 people to hide, will be able to give the Khitan people a big surprise.
Ma Renjie was also very satisfied with this place, and waved his hand and ordered, "This is it, send an order to the whole army, burn the fire and cook, and after a full meal, disperse according to the establishment of the battalion and sentry, and each of them will choose an ambush point to report."
The loud voices shouted and gave orders in the valley one by one, and the soldiers, who had long been hungry, first cheered like thunder, and then fell to the ground staggered, exhausted, and would rather go back and forth to Youzhou than walk this ghost mountain road again.
"Whoosh"
Yan Bandit Stone looked at the red pine forest on the ground, and a wolf howl sounded, and feathered arrows flew out like locusts.
"It's not good, there is an ambush" Ma Renjie shouted, first made a rolling top, hid behind a boulder, frightened, the sound of his back breaking the air sounded, and the sharp pain spread from the shoulder blades, followed by the ribs, waist, not long after, his back was full of feather arrows, and Zhang Xuanyu was similar.
Ma Renjie twisted his neck with difficulty, and what he saw was the Khitan soldiers and horses gushing out from behind, all over the mountains, condescending, with bows and arrows, caught off guard, and lax subordinates, like lambs to be slaughtered, falling to the ground one by one, running like headless flies, pushing and trampling each other, and making a mess.
"Retreat, retreat" Yan Bandit Shi was alert, simply fell to the ground, covered himself with a shield, and shouted loudly.
"Retreat, withdraw your grandmother's legs" Zong Huaichang had a few feather arrows stuck in his body, blood flowing, he scolded angrily, and jumped on a boulder, "Sons, if you want to live, go out with me and fight with these Khitan pieces."
Zong Huaichang spoke, and was hit by an arrow on his body, covered in blood, bloody, bloody, his majestic drinking order played a role, and the nearby soldiers and horses rushed with him to meet the Khitans, but he took pity on the Yan bandit stone, lying on the ground, it was still safe, but the soldiers were swarming, the front could still see and hear, and knew how to avoid, and the back, rushing to kill, not caring about the many under his feet, he did not die under the enemy's feather arrows, but died at the feet of his own soldiers.
Alas.
Zong Huaichang relied on the courage of a mouthful of blood, rushed into the Khitan soldiers and horses, rounded the two Xuanhua plate axes in his hands, like a big windmill airtight, brave, the Khitan people transferred a team of long-handled weapons, around him in three circles, from all directions headless and brainless crazy stabs, ash rods layer by layer dense like a forest, stabbed him all over the body, nailed him to death on the spot.
After the army Li Duozuo led the troops to the south of the Huangzhang Valley, he saw the fire in the valley from a distance, and the sound of fighting was loud, and he thought that Su Renshi and Ma Renjie had attacked, and they were besieging and annihilating the Khitan Li Duzhong Department, and he did not hesitate at the moment, waved his troops and entered the hinterland of the valley, but found that the corpses were everywhere, all of them were Han Erlang, and the three corpses were hanging in Changgao, which was Ma Renjie, Zong Huaichang and Yan Bandit Shi.
The so-called fighting sound was deliberately made by the Khitan thieves and specially led him to take the bait.
Li Duozuo turned his head and looked around, Huangzhang Valley was surrounded by Khitans, and on one side of the boulder, there was Li Quanzhong, the supreme khan with golden helmets and golden armor, and when he saw the face of a person next to Li Quanzhong, Li Duozuo's eyes suddenly split, "Su Renshi, traitor and traitor, will not give up with you."
Su Renshi hid his face with his sleeves and didn't dare to see him.
"Waha" Li Quanzhong looked up to the sky and laughed, his voice shook the four fields, and he was indescribably complacent, "The Great Third Army, you are the last general, this Great Khan specially appeared to see you, what do you have to say, despite the truth, this Great Khan will definitely listen to it word for word"
Li Duozuo stared at the two of them viciously, but he couldn't say a word.
"Great Khan, a large group of people and horses have come from far south of Huangzhang Valley, pushing vehicles, and I don't know what to transport" A spy rushed over with a deep foot and a shallow foot, kneeling on the ground to report.
"Car?" Li Qianzhong was still hesitating, but Li Duozuo immediately laughed and answered triumphantly, "Hahaha, my Great Zhou Fireworks Army is here, who said that Ben will be the last person, Ben will be the first person to take your life"
Pyrotechnics? Li Quanzhong's mind was stunned, he had seen the power of the fireworks army, he subconsciously pulled out his waist knife, grabbed Su Renshi's neck beside him, lifted him up with his feet off the ground, the white knife went in, the red knife came out, Su Renshi's eyes widened, he vomited blood in a big gulp, and muttered to himself, "Why, maybe ......"
"Great Khan, in all directions of the Yellow Deer Valley, there are many small groups of foot soldiers in the Great Zhou, wearing blue tassels, I don't know what the intention is?" Another spy came to report, Li Quanzhong was even more angry, holding the handle of the knife, turning and stirring it over and over, and digging out a bloody hole in Su Renshi's chest and abdomen.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Li Duozuo made a gesture to the guards around him, and several figures rushed out, and the darts with sleeve arrows flew like falling leaves in the sky, flying towards the angry Li Quanzhong.
"Ding Bell" Li Qianzhong's guards blocked most of them, and two of them still shot half of the cheek and shoulder respectively.
"Wow" The sharp pain struck, and Li Quanzhong screamed.
"Li Quanzhong is dead, those who surrender are exempted" Li Duozuo opened his throat and shouted, taking advantage of the Khitan chaos, he hurriedly ordered a breakthrough.
"Hugh wants to take care of me, take him down, Ben Da Khan wants to use his head as a wine jug" Li Quanzhong endured the severe pain, covered half of his face, raised his foot and kicked over a few guards, stepped on it, let himself be high, and exposed, "Sun Wanrong, you go outside the valley and block the fireworks army, remember, don't rely on them too close"
Sun Wanrong led his troops to rush out of Huangzhang Valley, and he came across from him, but where was the Fireworks Army, it was Yao Chong's grain transportation team.
The Khitans rode horses and patrolled in the distance, eyeing each other, shooting arrows from afar, but not approaching, Yao Chong did not know the inside story, but he knew that he had encountered the two Great Zhou soldiers and horses, and he was afraid that something would happen.
"Set fire, set fire to the grain" Yao Chongmeng ordered, "Everyone is scattered, in all directions, whoever gets out alive will report to the government that the Khitans have harmed my elite in the Huangzhang Valley"
"Boom ......" flames erupted.
Sun Wanrong was shocked, "Retreat quickly, retreat quickly"
It was good for him to retreat in a hurry, and collided with the Khitan soldiers and horses in the Huangzhang Valley, and Li Duozuo took advantage of the gap and rushed out.
"Chase, chase"
The Khitans followed closely.
"Don't worry, don't worry, the wild call is coming"
A loud shout, like spring thunder, it was Ye Huli, who saw the sky-high fire and led the army to help.
