Chapter 378 Fighting a thief in an ambush

Seeing that the situation was not good, the three thieves saw that the situation was not good, so they left the infantry army and the people who came with them, and gathered at the west gate with only the horse army, ready to escape.

The walls have collapsed, the officers and troops are close at hand, and death is approaching.

At this time, the thieves in the central county town had long lost their fighting spirit, and they were swarming around like headless flies, and no one wanted to resist at all.

Zhang Mingzhe and his subordinates did not encounter any resistance along the way, and easily entered the county seat, and when he looked around, he saw that a group of thieves had already lost their blades, shouting and screaming, running back and forth, looking like the end was coming.

"Sons, if you meet a thief, kill it, whoever kills the thief, the gold and silver treasures on his body belong to whomever he wants, but he has to keep a few alive, so that he can ask where is the treasure house of the thief leader? We have to take the big head before the people behind come. Zhang Mingzhe walked into the county seat and shouted loudly to the left and right.

"Yes, General."

When the Guyuan soldiers got the order, they spread out their blades, and they first asked the man if they knew where the treasure house of the thief was, and if they couldn't answer, they killed him with a knife, and then searched his body, and put the gold and silver treasures he found in his pocket, and then went to search and kill the thief.

After searching for a while, they found a few men who claimed to know the treasure trove of thieves.

Guyuan soldiers escorted them to Zhang Mingzhe and asked his own general to interrogate them.

"Do you know where the treasure trove of the thief is?" Zhang Mingzhe squinted his eyes and asked repeatedly.

"Back to the military master's words, the little one carried the box containing gold and silver treasures for the thief, and the box was full of silver, as well as any gems, jade, antiques, calligraphy and paintings, and I can't count them." A bold man replied with a grin, regardless of the steel knife on his neck.

"You are a bold man, a little interesting, since you know where the treasure house of the thief is, quickly lead the way, take us to see, if there is really a treasure, spare you from death, if there is a half-false, kill you alive." Zhang Mingzhe said sharply.

"Master Jun, the little one only knows the treasure house of the Heavenly Star, and the treasure house of the other two thieves, and the little one doesn't know where it is." The man quickly replied.

"Where are the treasures of the two thieves, who knows? If you don't know, it's useless, and General Ben will kill you right away. Zhang Mingzhe turned his face and asked in a sharp voice at the other men who claimed to know the thief's treasure house.

"The little one knows, the little one knows, the little one knows where the treasure house of the Black God is."

"The little one knows where the treasure trove of scorpion blocks is."

Under the threat of death, two men immediately shuddered in response.

"Hmph, count your acquaintances, sons, divide the soldiers into three ways, go to the thief's treasury immediately, leave forty percent, and the remaining sixty percent quickly hide. Remember, no private division is allowed, otherwise Lao Tzu's military law will be ruthless. Zhang Mingzhe said hatefully.

"Yes, General."

When the soldiers received the order, they each took the insider, and flocked to the place where the stars and the black gods and scorpions stored their gold and silver treasures.

*****

Near the west gate of the city, passing the stars, the black god and the scorpion block are riding on horses, looking at the east of the city in extreme depression.

"After a year of hard work, the things I grabbed were cheap for the officers and soldiers." The black god pursed his mouth and muttered unhappily.

"It's nothing, as long as we still have our lives, we can pull out another team of people, as long as we have people and horses, and break a few more counties, how much have you lost this time, all of them can be made up, do you say yes or no?" The scorpion block comforted the black god of God.

"That's right, when the officers and soldiers entered the city, they only thought about competing for gold and silver treasures, and the outside of the city would inevitably be empty, so we could take the opportunity to slip away, this is a good thing, take money to buy your life, it's worth it." Guo Tianxing commented.

"Since the officers and soldiers have come in, when are we leaving?" The Black Slayer asked.

"Don't worry, when more officers and soldiers enter the city, let's run again." The more officers and soldiers there are in the city, the fewer there are outside the city, and the safer it will be when we run. Guo Tianxing's palm pressed down, signaling everyone to be calm.

****

Outside the city, the Ming army was in the main formation, and Liu Wuguo and other generals heard the shouts of killing in the central county town, and their whole hearts seemed to be scratched by a kitten, which was extremely itchy.

At this time, Zhang Mingzhe must have made a fortune in the central county, and everyone wants to go in.

"The commander, although the thieves are weak, but there are 20,000 people, General Zhang only has 2,000 soldiers and horses, if the thieves know that they can't help it, they fight to the death, I'm afraid that General Zhang will be difficult to deal with, and please give a quick order to the commander, let me wait for the follow-up." Yang Jinrong took the lead in asking Hong Chengchou for his life.

"Yes, commander, you must not let General Zhang fall into a heavy siege, and please give an order quickly and let me wait for the attack." Liu Wuguo also pleaded repeatedly.

"Well, go ahead." Hong Chengchou agreed.

"Thank you." When the generals were overjoyed, they pulled out the Yanling knives on their waists and shouted loudly: "Sons, follow me to kill the enemy." ”

"Rush." When the Ming army received the order, they rushed to the central county town with a roar.

Silver, gold, treasure, and women awaited them.

When all these generals rushed to the central county town with their troops, Hong Chengchou found that Liu Renyu did not move at all, and he had no intention of entering the city to kill the enemy.

"Renyu, why don't you enter the city and kill the enemy?" Hong Chengchou asked.

"Commander, the thieves are too weak, it is enough for the other generals to lead troops to cover up and kill." Liu Renyu said with a smile.

"It's also said that Renyu can defeat Jiannu in Liaodong, and it is naturally not enough to see just a thief." Hong Chengchou stroked his beard and smiled.

When Hong Chengchou and Liu Renyu were asking and answering each other, they didn't watch out for the sudden dust in the west, and a large group of cavalry galloped out of the city and ran straight to the west.

Liu Renyu made a visual inspection and found that this team of rogue cavalry running out of the city was only afraid of as many as 2,000 people.

"Commander, there are enemy cavalry fleeing from the city, marking a request to fight." Liu Renyu guessed that the thieves who ran out at this time must be real thieves, so he specially asked to fight.

"Originally, the official has already arranged an ambush, so I think I should be able to deal with the thieves, but since Renyu intends to kill the thieves, let's go." Hong Chengchou said with a smile.

"Yes, commander, come when you go down." Liu Renyu first saluted Hong Chengchou, and then shouted loudly to his subordinates: "Desheng, Tie Niu, Renjie, follow me to attack, Jiye, left to stay, the people of the military dog unit, take the military dog to attack together." ”

"Yes, Marshal." The generals responded in unison.

After Liu Renyu gave the order, he didn't wait for his subordinates to follow, so he rode his horse and galloped wildly, running towards the Heavenly Star, the Black Demon God and the Scorpion Block, who were about to escape.

Yang Desheng and several other generals saw that Liu Renyu ran away first, and hurriedly chased after his sons.

It is said that the geographical location of this central county is very special, it is located in a basin, surrounded by mountains on all sides, and the avenues in and out of the county are generally located between two mountains, winding, which is very suitable for ambushing soldiers.

Hong Chengchou surrounded three sides, leaving only the west side and not sending troops to defend, just to let the thieves run into his ambush circle.

Over the stars, the black god and the scorpion block only the officials and soldiers have entered the central county to make a fortune, should not chase and kill themselves, or even if they send troops to chase, it doesn't matter, they carry gold and silver with them, when they are poor, they can throw away these things outside the body, so that the officers and soldiers stop pursuing, if so the officers and soldiers still want to chase, then drill the ravine, as long as they enter the ravine, basically the officers and soldiers will not pursue again.

These tricks have been tried and tested many times before, and there should be no surprises this time, but this time there was an accident, because these tricks were not used this time.

Guo Tianxing and a few other thieves fled quickly along the road to the west, and there were many curves along the road without incident, but when they walked through another bend, they suddenly found that the road ahead was cut off.

The avenue narrows here, the slope of the mountains on both sides is steep, and there are a large number of rejected horses in front of the road, and this road is impassable!

When the thieves such as the stars of the sky saw these things, they were all terrified and shouted badly.

Seeing the rejection of horses here, there is no doubt that there must be an ambush of officers and soldiers here.

When these thieves were wandering on their own, they didn't pay attention to the sound of a cannon on the mountain, and countless Ming troops came out, shouting and rushing down.

In the blink of an eye, many of the soldiers and horses of the old battalion around the three thieves fell from their horses.

"Oops, there are ambushes, retreat." The star shouted loudly, and then turned his horse's head, and prepared to run towards the east, but the road was blocked by boulders and rolling logs, and there was no way to escape.

What's worse is that Liu Renyu happened to lead the troops to kill them, completely cutting off their back road.

Now there is really no way to go to heaven and no way to enter the earth.

"Brothers, surrender is also death, it is better to fight with the officers and soldiers." Seeing that his side was in a desperate situation, the black god decided to fight to the death, even if he died.

Guo Tianxing and the scorpion block responded loudly, and then led his men and horses to dismount and fight on foot to meet the Ming army and Liu Renyu's troops and horses in ambush.
