Seeing the people of Cockscomb Mountain appearing at the other end of the valley, Fang Dongquan and Huang Xueren were stunned.

How did the people of Cockscomb Mountain come here?

Could it be that the people of Cockscomb Mountain came with them? But it shouldn't be, although not long ago Huangzhushan also ran to attack Jiguan Mountain, the Tang Dynasty and Jiguan Mountain are considered to have a mortal enemy, but when he and others evacuated Jiguan Mountain, they were very cautious, and they didn't find that the people from Jiguan Mountain followed behind.

Moreover, even if the people of Jiguan Mountain want to take revenge on them, they will not come here, but will go directly to Huangzhu Mountain.

However, many impossibilities have now become a reality, and the people of Jiguan Mountain, who could not have appeared here, have now appeared here.

This had to make Fang Dongquan and them wonder!

If Fang Dongquan and the others were just puzzled, then the Ming army who was still in the valley would begin to panic.

Why?

Because they were now in the valley, this narrow valley was the most easily ambushed terrain, and now on the other side of the valley suddenly appeared such a large number of men and horses, and these horses knew at a glance that they were bandits.

Their first reaction was: These horses in front of them were those bandits from Huangzhushan, that is, the target of their trip, the army of the puppet Tang Dynasty.

Otherwise, how could there be so many bandits here?

As the direct commander of this Ming army, Qianhu Zeng Ziyun was very nervous at this moment, and he didn't care about discussing it with Su Jiakang and others, so he just ran forward to check the situation.

At this time, whether the bandits from the opposite side were bandits from the puppet Tang Dynasty or not, but it was very dangerous for this Ming army, and he didn't want to be blocked in the valley by others.

And although he has no combat experience, he is also a person who has read military books, and his limited military knowledge tells him that he must not stay in the valley, either retreat or fight in one go!

ran to the front and took a look, and found that there were only about 100 people on the other side, and looking at the clothes and weapons, Zeng Ziyun could judge that the people and horses on the opposite side were definitely bandits, and it was difficult to say whether it was a bandit army of the pseudo-Tang Dynasty.

However, it doesn't matter if it is the army of the puppet Tang Dynasty, as long as the other party is a bandit, strictly speaking, they are the enemies of their Ming army!

So Zeng Ziyun didn't hesitate much, and shouted directly: "Don't stop, rush over, rush over!" ”

Regardless of whether the other party is hostile or not, whether it is the army of the puppet Tang Dynasty or not, Zeng Ziyun knows very well that all he has to do is rush over.

In this way, you can avoid a potential crisis and being stuck in the valley.

When Zeng Ziyun ordered the Ming army to start rushing over, Fang Dongquan and Huang Xueren on the top of the mountain were not idle, seeing that the Ming army had begun to move, the Ming soldiers in the valley had already run up one after another and rushed forward.

At this time, although Fang Dongquan still couldn't understand why the people and horses of Jiguan Mountain appeared here, but now it seemed that the time was fleeting, and there was not much time left for him, and if he waited like this, the ambush they had carefully arranged would come to naught.

Now the attention of the Ming army is attracted by the people of Jiguan Mountain at the other end of the valley, and looking at their formation, the Ming army is ready to rush over and fight with the people of Jiguan Mountain.

This situation is much more optimistic than the previously expected ambush situation!

So he gritted his teeth, and then the whole person stood up, and at the same time raised the ring knife in his hand!

He shouted: "The whole army obeys the order and attacks!" ”

At this critical moment, although the situation was still unclear, Fang Dongquan still gave the order to attack, and as for the real situation, he no longer cared.

Regardless of what's going on, let's talk about it first.

At this time, Qian Mengjiu, who was beside him, puffed up his breath and shouted: "The Tang Dynasty is in ruin, in this battle, the soldiers must fight bravely to kill the enemy!" ”

Then he took a drum from one of the bandits beside him, and beat it again and again, regardless of the rhythm, and the drum immediately echoed in the valley!

In the sound of thunder and thunder, Fang Dongquan and Huang Xueren each led the men and horses to pour out from the dense forest on both sides, and in front of these two groups of people, Butcher Chen was already wielding a pig-killing knife and led more than 20 forward bandits to kill out first.

At the first moment when Fang Dongquan gave the order to attack, without waiting for Qian Mengjiu to beat the drum, Butcher Chen had already rushed out with more than 20 bandits under his command!

The more than 20 bandits, all armed with long-waisted knives and small wooden shields, leaped down the mountain with vigor and agility, rushing out like a flood that had burst its banks.

In front of them, there was a chaotic Ming army that was preparing to rush forward to attack Jiguan Mountain.

This scene in the valley also made everyone in the other end of the valley stunned, where did this officer and soldier come out? Also, there are still people who dare to ambush officers and soldiers!

What the hell is going on?

Bursts of drums and shouts suddenly came from the high mountains on both sides of the valley, and many Ming soldiers turned their heads to look, only to see a large number of bandits on both sides rushing down, because the situation was panicked, and the time was pressing, they couldn't count the number of bandits rushing down for a while.

At this time, everyone in the Ming army, whether it was an ordinary soldier, or Zeng Ziyun and Su Jiakang, and their high-level leaders, almost instantly came up with the same thought: "There is an ambush!" ”

There are enemy troops blocking in front of you, and there are enemy troops on both sides, if this is not considered an ambush, then what is an ambush?

And the enemy troops rushing down on both sides were quite loud, and there were countless of them!

Zeng Ziyun was stunned at this time!

A middle-aged hundred-man beside him asked him with an anxious face: "My lord, what should we do now, should we continue to rush forward or defend on the spot?" ”

However, another hundred households said: "We can't rush through, the valley is too narrow, although we have a lot of people, but the hundred thieves in front of us are enough to block the valley mouth, and there are enemy troops on both sides, it is not appropriate to defend on the spot, we must immediately withdraw from the valley!" ”

Zeng Ziyun has also read military books, but after all, he is only a twenty-year-old young man, and he encountered an ambush when he led troops to the battlefield for the first time, and he was still calm there, but now he is completely flustered and can't make any decisions at all.

He wanted to rush out, but he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to rush over, he wanted to defend on the spot and was afraid of being surrounded in the valley, he wanted to retreat, but he was afraid that this retreat would cause the collapse of the whole army, whether it was fighting or defending or fleeing, every option had advantages and disadvantages, and now Zeng Ziyun didn't know which one to choose, so he hesitated, gritted his teeth, but just didn't speak.

For the Ming army at this moment, every second is very precious, Zeng Ziyun hesitated for a second, and it was more dangerous for the Ming army.

But now, Zeng Ziyun hesitated, and saw that his face was on the side, his tall and stout body was trembling slightly, and his trembling hands couldn't even hold the waist knife.
