Chapter 20: Outwitting Canglong Ridge

Speaking of Wang Qing's side, at this time, he was already on the way back with Pei Yuanshao, and saw Wang Qing and Pei Yuanshao walking in front on horseback, smiling, but the three brothers Gude and Wu were missing in the team. It turned out that they had already taken the Golden Bull Village, and almost a thousand people surrendered to them, and they arranged this time in their own ranks. Because they found something in Jinniuzhai and needed to be guarded, they stayed behind this time to lead a thousand men and horses in Jinniuzhai. The other horses, led by Wang Qing and Pei Yuanshao, returned to the cottage to resume their lives, in addition to the 500 people brought by the original cottage, there were more than 800 people who surrendered in Jinniuzhai, and there were more people who came back than they attacked, a total of more than 1,300 people.

Pei Yuanshao praised Wang Qing: "Ziwu, I didn't expect you to be so powerful in marching battles in addition to your outstanding martial arts, just more than a hundred people, and you hit the gate of the camp in Jinniuzhai." If it weren't for you, this attack would definitely not have gone so smoothly, and it would have been impossible for us to directly destroy Taurus Village. ”

"Lao Pei, you have won the award, this is also taught by my father, our family has been in the army for generations, so we are more familiar with these." Wang Qing recalled that when he was in Qianlong Village, his father's careful teaching to him, and he also sighed in his heart, and now he has finally learned something useful. He recalled the attack on Jinniuzhai this time, which gave him a new understanding of what his father had taught before.

On that day, according to Gude's suggestion, in the morning, Wang Qing led more than 50 people, pretending to be the men and horses of Jinniu Village, and went to the exit of Canglongling to ask for help from the three masters of the cottage, saying that the Shankou camp was being attacked by the Woniu Cottage Brigade.

At that time, in order to be realistic, they painted themselves all covered in blood, and many of the clothes on their bodies were cut with knives, so the people of Jinniuzhai were not suspicious, and hurriedly sent people to the camp on the top of the mountain for help, and then the other horses went straight to the bottom of the mountain under the leadership of Lu Wei, the third master.

When Lu Wei and the others rushed to the entrance of Canglong Ridge, they were not completely out of it, and they were attacked by the men and horses who were ambushed there by Gude, killing and wounding dozens of people at once.

However, when they returned, they found that the exit had been blocked by a fence, and it turned out that Wang Qing and the others pretended to be injured and stayed here, taking advantage of Lu Wei and their entry into Canglong Ridge. Wang Qing first hurriedly sent people to catch up with the people who went to the camp on the top of the mountain to ask for help to prevent the news from leaking prematurely, and at the same time blocked the exit, so that Lu Wei and the others were blocked in Canglong Ridge, with cliffs on both sides, and they had nowhere to go at all.

Wang Qing and the others waited until the evening, ate and drank enough, and let the soldiers prepare to start the attack, it turned out that it was already the time for the attack agreed by Gude and them.

There is Wang Qing leading here, and the other horses are all carrying bows and arrows, following behind, although these soldiers are not very good at archery, and they have not been systematically trained, but Canglongling itself is too narrow, if you hold spears and other weapons, you can't use them. Wang Qing and the others walked directly along Canglongling, because Lu Wei and they were in a hurry at that time, and they were carrying spears, so Wang Qing was not worried at all, in terms of force, he believed that these people in Jinniuzhai were not his opponents.

They came to the middle of Canglong Ridge and finally met Lu Wei and them. At this time, after a day of not eating or drinking, Lu Wei and the others had already lost their morale. But because Lu Wei suppressed the soldiers, there was no desertion. Besides, thinking that they had already sent people to ask for help from the camp on the top of the mountain before they came out, they didn't know that Wang Qing had already sent someone to chase back the people who asked for help.

When Wang Qing and them arrived, the other party thought it was his own people and horses, and was about to walk over, who knew that they were greeted by a cold gun, Wang Qing stabbed the Jinniuzhai soldiers who came over with a shot, took the gun back, and the person fell directly off the cliff.

At this time, Lu Wei also found out that Wang Qing was leading people to attack, and hurriedly shouted: "Brothers, now we can only fight hard, otherwise no one will survive, and if you don't want to die, kill me." ”

Hundreds of people rushed towards Wang Qing and them, but Canglong Ridge was too narrow, and only two or three people could walk side by side at a time, Wang Qing was blocking the front, they couldn't rush over at all, and in addition to Wang Qing, there were other people who kept shooting bows and arrows, and people kept falling and falling off the cliff.

When Lu Wei saw this, he knew that such an attack would definitely not work, so he led his men and horses to retreat first, wanting to rush through the entrance, who knows how far Lu Wei had just rushed out, and he bumped into Gude and them, who came to attack together according to the prior agreement.

Goode saw a big man leading the way, and the other party seemed to be the one who took the lead in trying to go down the mountain in the morning, so he raised his knife and went up to meet him. Lu Wei didn't expect that there were people in the rear who attacked at the same time, and he was not in a hurry to resist, and was killed by Gude's knife. At this time, the men and horses of Jinniuzhai were attacked by Wang Qing and them in front and back, and they were tired, hungry and thirsty, and they couldn't resist at all, and they were defeated at once. Wang Qing knew from Wang Da Wang Er that the three hundred people led by Lu Wei usually plundered everywhere and killed countless people, so he did not surrender and killed all the other party.

Wang Qing and Gu De converged and went to the Canglongling exit camp to repair. This place used to be stationed with Lu Wei and people, as the three masters of the cottage, although there are only 300 people, but the facilities are very complete, and there are food, wine and meat.

This time it was a big victory, only a few people were slightly injured because they were accidental, Wang Qing was very happy and asked everyone to add food, but because they were in the army and close to the camp on the top of Jinniuzhai Mountain, they didn't drink. After arranging for men and horses to patrol, Wang Qing let the soldiers rest, but they must not leave their clothes and knives, just in case.

Early the next morning, Wang Qing beat the drum for everyone to gather, and everyone else arrived except for the patrolling people.

"Where we are now, I think we all know that. Ahead is the Jinniuzhai camp, and according to the news, there are more than 1,000 people there in total. So we are in a very dangerous situation, and if the people from Taurus Village find us, we people will definitely not be able to resist it. At that time, we will either be completely annihilated, or withdraw from Canglongling, and in that case, our previous efforts will be in vain. Therefore, we need to hold this camp, wait for the arrival of the second master, and then launch a general attack to break through the Taurus Village in one fell swoop. ”

"Break through the Golden Bull Village~Break the Golden Cow Village~" all the soldiers raised their weapons and shouted.

"Hold on, now I'll arrange it. Goode led a hundred men to build fortifications, and Wu Qin and your three brothers led the others to set traps. In this way, if we are discovered by the people of Taurus Village, we can resist for a while. ”

This camp is like a heart, the front of the camp on the mountain is wide, you can 30 people in parallel, from here to the camp is wider and wider, it seems that the camp inside the space is very large, not to mention 300 people, even if it is a thousand people, can live here. But near Canglong Ridge, it gradually narrowed.

Wang Qing demanded that the camp be built under the gate wall in the direction of the mountain, and that it be built with soil to strengthen the camp. At the same time, the stones are laid on both sides to reduce the width of the camp gate, so that the opponent's offensive side is reduced, so that they can defend more easily. At the same time, Wang Qing cleared the road near Canglong Ridge and demolished the houses and everything, so that he could not only strengthen the gate of the camp, but also if his own reinforcements came up from the mountain, they could also enter the battle faster.

Gude and the others took the order to leave, and Wang Qing said to the soldiers beside him: "Liu Cheng, you take two people to send a letter to Centurion Dong Hong below, and ask him to wait until the second master of the family and the horses come up the mountain quickly." ”

"Yes!" Liu Cheng called the two of them to rush down the mountain. At this time, Liu Cheng admired Wang Qing very much, in his opinion, his pioneer was simply a god, such a small number of people actually attacked the gate of the camp of Jinniu Village, and he could still keep the news from being discovered by the other party.

At this time, Liu Cheng was not the only one who admired Wang Qing, everyone felt the same way about Wang Qing. They had come here with Zhou Cang and Pei Yuanshao from the border counties of Bingzhou before, and there had never been a battle so easy, and more often than not, they were both defeated.

Although Zhou Cang and Pei Yuanshao rushed to the front every time, they all rushed forward in one go, so although they won, they also injured the enemy by 10,000 and lost 8,000 themselves, and even more often, because they faced too many alien people, they were all defeated by the other party. So they had more than 4,000 horses, and when they arrived at the Woniu Cottage, there were only more than 1,000 left.

Liu Cheng and the others went all the way down the mountain, passing by some checkpoints in the middle, and told everyone that they had attacked the gate of the camp in Jinniuzhai, and everyone who heard the news was very happy. When they came to the mountain pass camp, Dong Hongzheng sent people to prepare lunch, because they had already met the scouts of Pei Yuanshao's team, they were already very close to here, and they could get here in the afternoon.

Dong Hong heard a report from his subordinates that Wang Qing's personal soldiers were coming, and hurriedly asked people to bring them over.

"Liu Cheng, why are you, is it Ziwu that their attack is not going well?" Dong Hong knew Liu Cheng, and when he saw him descending the mountain, he thought that he had come down to let him lead troops to support.

"Tell Centurion Dong Hong, the attack of the vanguard lord is very smooth, we have gone all the way up to Canglong Ridge, and we have not encountered any major obstacles. Last night, we killed the three masters of Jinniuzhai stationed in Canglongling and the three hundred men and horses he belonged to. I'm here, and Lord Pioneer is asking me to tell you that if the second leader arrives, go straight up the mountain. ”

Dong Hong was stunned when he heard Liu Cheng's report, and he couldn't believe it. He didn't expect Wang Qing to be so powerful, more than a hundred people, and he dared to attack the gate of the camp in Jinniuzhai.

"Then isn't Ziwu very dangerous now, there are more than a thousand people in the camp on the top of Jinniuzhai Mountain now, how can Ziwu be able to resist." Dong Hong was surprised and began to worry about Wang Qing's safety, after all, the other party had more than 1,000 people not far from them, no matter how powerful Wang Qing was, it was impossible for them to be a hundred.

"Yes, we are in a very dangerous situation right now. Fortunately, the pioneer master was secretive before, and the Jinniuzhai camp did not know about our attack at present. ”

"That's okay, the second master will be able to arrive here in the afternoon, and then we will go to attack the camp of Jinniuzhai. You're tired from running down, so take a rest and you'll go up with us later. Dong Hong asked Liu Cheng to take them down.
