Chapter 9 Ambush Everywhere

"What are you afraid of, just say that the brethren had a cold last night and broke his stomach, and see what he can do. " Brother Erdan said with a nonchalant face. Since Li Chengliang's disloyalty to the court is well known, there is no need for him to pretend, although he is his own official, he is afraid of what he will do.

"My lord, it's really inappropriate to do this." The generals were still a little worried. They are not like Brother Erdan, who has Shen Chongming's backing behind them, and for Li Chengliang in Liaodong Town, it is more difficult to clean up a small thousand households than to pinch an ant to death.

Brother Erdan's eyes widened, and he shouted: "Where did you get so much nonsense, obey orders, and have your own official to take responsibility for everything!" ”

Seeing that Brother Erdan's mind has been decided, the generals under him have nothing to say, so they can only obey orders.

The striker general didn't do anything, and the news quickly spread to Li Chengliang. "What, you said that the avant-garde men and horses of Dingliao have all hid in the mountains?" Li Chengliang couldn't believe that Brother Erdan had such courage.

"Yes, my lord, the last general went to inquire, but the horse said that his people had a cold last night and broke their stomachs, so they all hid in the mountains." The general who came to report the news said with some embarrassment, more than 2,000 people and horses are all bare-chested, and it is spectacular enough to think about it.

"Bastard!" scolded angrily, Li Chengliang naturally wouldn't believe such an indiscriminate excuse. It must be Ma Erdan's sincerity against himself.

"My lord, what should I do now?" The general asked cautiously. In fact, he already had a plan in his heart, Ma Erdan dared to go against Li Chengliang so blatantly, even if he was from the capital, he would definitely not be able to get any benefit this time.

"You take your men and horses and continue to move forward, and this official will go to meet this master Ma from the capital." Li Chengliang said with a gloomy face, this time he must kill his sharp spirit, if not, he will definitely get worse next time.

The general took the order and left, and Li Chengliang also waved his hand and rushed forward with the angry horses of the guards, as if he was going to find Brother Erdan to seek revenge.

The people and horses were bustling, but fortunately, when the soldiers saw that it was Li Chengliang, they immediately gave way, which made him rush to the place where the avant-garde people were resting in just a quarter of an hour.

"The last general......" Seeing that it was Li Chengliang coming, a general immediately stepped forward to give a salute, but Li Chengliang was angry, and raised his hand to be a horsewhip, "Bring the horse and the second egg to Lord Ben!" ”

There was a maroon whip mark on his cheek in an instant, and the general with cold sweat on his forehead didn't dare to show the anger in his heart, so he hurriedly went to find Brother Erdan. But I'm worried in my heart, looking at Li Chengliang's bastard appearance, I'm afraid that this level will not be easy today.

"My lord, Li Chengliang is here." Seeing that Brother Erdan was hiding in a mountain nest basking in the sun, the anxious general in his heart directly called out Li Chengliang's name but didn't realize it.

"What's the panic, huh? What's going on on with your face? Brother Erdan's expression changed, and he stood up suddenly.

"My lord, this skin injury is nothing, you still want to think about how to deal with Master Li, look at his appearance, I'm afraid that I will really be rude to you this time." The general said with some concern.

Brother Erdan suddenly smiled and said indifferently: "I'll talk about this later, you sit down and deal with the wound first." As he spoke, Brother Erdan turned around and waved his hand to the Jinyi lieutenant not far away and said, "Quickly bring the wound medicine." ”

"My lord, let's still think about it......" The general still needed to be persuaded again, but was interrupted by Brother Erdan. Okay, let's take care of the wound first. ”

Li Chengliang waited left and right, but he didn't see Brother Erdan coming, and he couldn't help but be angry in his heart, and strictly ordered an avant-garde sergeant to lead the way, waiting to find Brother Erdan, and saw him intimately next to the general who had eaten his own horsewhip!

"Ma Erdan!" With a loud shout, Li Chengliang strode forward.

It just so happened that Brother Erdan had just finished dressing the wound medicine for his generals at this time, and when he heard Li Chengliang's voice, he hurriedly got up and ran up. The flattering smile on his face made Li Chengliang even more angry, and he was still pretending to be stupid at this time, what is this not underestimating himself?

"Yo, it's really a sin for Master Li to miss the end of his arrival." Brother Erdan licked his face and smiled, without the slightest expression of weakness.

Li Chengliang's eyes glared angrily, and he asked, "Ma Erdan, why did you disobey the military order and stop moving forward, could it be that you want to try the power of this official's military law?" ”

Brother Erdan's expression was stunned, and he was full of puzzlement: "My lord, where does this disobedience to military orders begin, how can the last general not know?" ”

"You...... As a striker, you have not received the order of your own officer, why do you stay here? Li Chengliang almost slapped the second brother directly.

Brother Erdan suddenly realized and said with a smile: "My lord, this is a complete misunderstanding, it's just because my avant-garde soldier broke his stomach when he slept in the wilderness last night, so he had no choice but to stop temporarily." The last general was also anxious, just waiting for the soldiers to be more comfortable and continue to hurry. ”

"It's full of nonsense, why didn't the official see that your person had a bad stomach. Moreover, the army is outside, and all matters large and small must be asked about the meaning of the official before making a decision, and you are so good at asserting that you can stop your avant-garde people from advancing, what is this not disobeying the orders of the army? Li Chengliang's face was full of majesty, and he insisted that Brother Erdan had disobeyed the military order. His idea is very simple, that is, to force Brother Erdan to admit this, so that others will have nothing to say to punish him.

"Tell your lordship, I'm going to at the end!" Brother Erdan came to this sentence with his stomach covering, using this kind of scoundrel move, but Brother Erdan is the best at it.

"You ......" Li Chengliang never expected his opponent to be such a scoundrel, and he suddenly didn't know how to deal with it.

"My lord, I'm sorry." With a painful face on his face, Brother Erdan turned around and ran towards the mountain nest on the side. He had just looked at it, and hid in the mountain nest, and didn't want to know what the people down there were doing except to look down from above.

Li Chengliang was speechless for a while, and he didn't care for a while, seeing that the kid was Wang Ba's iron heart, he made up his mind not to admit that he was disobeying the army's orders, how could this be good?

In a blink of an eye, it was another quarter of an hour, but I still didn't see Brother Erdan come out of the nest in the small mountain. Just as Li Chengliang was anxious to come forward to find him, he heard a dull shout in the valley to the east.

This voice came a little suddenly, but Li Chengliang, who had been in the army for many years, was just stunned and guessed what was going on, and encountered an ambush!

"Let's go!" When such a thing happened, Li Chengliang still cared about arguing with Brother Erdan here, and hurriedly walked down the hill with a group of guards with a shout.

"Quick, gather the people!" As soon as Li Chengliang left on his front foot, Brother Erdan walked out of the mountain nest, his expression was a little serious, he also knew what was going on, and what he was most worried about really appeared.

Hurriedly gathered the men and horses down the mountain, and the situation was already chaotic at this time. The soldiers who suddenly encountered an ambush in front of them were retreating in a panic, and the generals who did not know what to do behind had to lead people to immediately go forward to kill the enemy.

"My lord, what now?" The people and horses under the mountain were too crowded, and Brother Erdan immediately decided to stay on the mountain and wait for the situation to be clear before making plans. But he can endure his temperament, but his generals do not have this calmness.

"Let me think about it." Brother Erdan frowned and said, I always feel that this ambush is a little weird.

"Quick, retreat, retreat!" At this moment, Li Chengliang was full of regret, he rushed to the front to do something, and it was difficult to control the overall situation now.

In the face of the sudden ambush, the men and horses who took over the position of the striker immediately fell into disarray, and when Li Chengliang and his guards caught up, the situation of rout was irreparable.

Li Chengliang sighed secretly, knowing that this was the case, he would not send someone to send an order to the army to quickly move forward and fight the ambush when he caught up.

In this matter, their own men and horses have been in a mess as soon as they advance and retreat, and it is impossible to regain their strength, so it is better to withdraw from Huangcaoling in one go, and wait for the army and horses to be reorganized and come back to fight.

With great effort, Li Chengliang finally passed the order to retreat to the rear formation, so the rear formation changed to the front formation, and nearly 20,000 troops stumbled back according to the original route.

"Your Excellency General, the Ming army is about to escape, what can I do now?" Seeing that the Ming army gradually stabilized from the chaos, Musashi, who was following behind Miyamoto Ichiro, couldn't help but say in a hurry.

Just now, when the Ming army's forward entered the ambush circle, he originally said that he was going to wait for the follow-up main forces of the Ming army to arrive before launching an attack, but what he never expected was that at this time, His Excellency Miyamoto actually ordered an attack, and immediately destroyed the good situation.

"Hehehe, Musashi-kun, don't worry, the show is about to start." Ichiro Miyamoto not only did not regret it, but had an inexplicable look on his face.

"Fun? Your Excellency, please give me advice. Musashi was stunned, but he also felt that Miyamoto Ichiro was not that kind of rice bucket type general, otherwise he would not have today's status.

Miyamoto Ichiro smiled and said nothing, and listened for a while before saying, "Pass on my military order, and the time has come for the Toei samurai to make meritorious contributions!" "Anyway, Ichiro Miyamoto rushed down the mountain with generals at all levels, and he didn't chase after him at this time.

It is not to talk about running away from the road, but Li Chengliang, who is walking in the crowd, can be said to be embarrassed, just when he is thinking fiercely in his heart about stabilizing his position and then killing back to take a good breath, there is a cry of wah and a wow and a whoaw in front of him again, just like the sound made when the ambush soldiers on the mountain appeared.

Listening to this voice, Li Chengliang's body couldn't help but be stunned, and cold sweat instantly covered his whole body, and the real ambush turned out to be here!

Wave after wave, in the face of the ambush soldiers who came out from the other direction, the army that was originally a little flustered suddenly became a mess, no matter how Shi Ru, who was supervising the formation behind, shouted, no one obeyed his orders.

Brother Erdan, who hadn't figured out what was wrong, didn't have to think about it at this time, and in a blink of an eye, he was worried about how to deal with the current ambush.
