Chapter 244: Ghost Horse Road (Part II)

"Quick! Speed up and get through the Ghost Horse Road as soon as possible! Li Deming rode on his horse, urging his subordinates to speed up his pace with a panicked face, because just a few miles behind them, the pursuers of the Great Song Dynasty were also desperately chasing them, although he left some people behind, but I am afraid that it will not last long.

Last night was a nightmare for all party members, and even Li Deming is now wondering if he still hasn't woken up in this nightmare? In just one night, they lost most of their troops, and now there are less than 10,000 people who have escaped, and their morale has long fallen to the bottom.

Thinking of last night's situation, Li Deming couldn't help but show a little fear on his face, originally after the defeat last time, after his efforts, he finally stabilized the morale of the army, and even sent troops to attack Gyeongju City, although it was unsuccessful, and he lost a lot of troops, but he also looted some property, and finally blocked some people's mouths.

It's just that Li Deming also knew that when the war reached this situation, it was impossible for him to win, so he sent someone to Cao Wei to send a letter asking for peace, originally thinking that he knew the Song people, as long as he took the initiative to seek peace, the other party would definitely be happy, because the Song people didn't like to fight in the first place.

But what Li Deming never expected was that his letter asking for peace had just been sent into the city, and the Song army came to rob the camp that night, and he was completely unprepared by surprise.

Although there are patrol soldiers in the party battalion, when they give warnings, the party soldiers in the battalion don't even have time to put on their armor, let alone find their horses, and for cavalry, no horses is equivalent to no legs, and some people can't even find weapons, how can this be fought?

Thanks to Li Deming's quick opportunity and seeing that the situation was not good, he immediately decided to let people break through from all sides, and then he himself killed him from the rear with his henchmen, otherwise even he would become a prisoner of the Song army.

After Li Deming fled all the way for several miles, he began to collect the defeated troops, and in the end only collected a few thousand people, you must know that he had taken 30,000 people on an expedition before, although he had lost a lot of people after two defeats, but there were still more than 20,000 people, but he lost most of them overnight, and now he was almost certain that after he returned, the major tribes would definitely take advantage of this to attack him, and he didn't know how much effort it would take to calm the anger of the various tribes?

However, although the number of defeated soldiers collected was not large, Li Deming did not dare to wait any longer, and the pursuers behind him could be killed at any time, so he immediately fled north with these thousands of defeated soldiers, fortunately, there have been defeated soldiers who escaped on the road to join, especially the number of several of them is still quite a lot, which makes the number of defeated soldiers under Li Deming increase by several thousand again, although in the end it is still less than 10,000, but it finally gives him some confidence.

"Father, there is the Ghost Horse Road ahead, but the road there is steep, I am worried that the Song army will set up an ambush here, so should we send someone to investigate?" At this moment, I saw Li Chengyu hanging an arm around his neck to drive forward, before when he was fleeing, Li Deming was in danger several times, thanks to Li Chengyu's desperate rescue, which allowed Li Deming to escape safely, but he himself was injured and was slashed on the arm, fortunately it was not too serious.

Hearing his son's words, Li Deming also showed a contemplative expression, and said that he had walked many times, of course he knew that this was an excellent place to set up an ambush, but now people were panicking, if they found that there was an ambush in front of them, I am afraid that the defeated soldiers under him would not dare to go any further, and they might surrender directly to the Song army.

"Report~, the Song army has defeated the broken army, and now it is speeding up to our side!" Just as Li Deming was pondering, he suddenly saw a horse flying over and reporting loudly that it was the spies he sent to the back to spy on the Song army.

"There's no time, speed up and pass through the ghost horse road!" When Li Deming heard this, he immediately made a decision and yelled again, and Li Chengyu next to him also sighed secretly when he heard this, the pursuers behind were imminent, even if there was an ambush in front, they could only rush hard.

In fact, there is no need for Li Deming's orders, these party members who finally escaped have long been frightened, and now if Li Deming orders them to stay and resist the pursuit of the Song army, maybe they will rebel on the spot.

As the Ghost Horse Road got closer and closer, Li Deming still ordered to prepare for being ambushed, but these defeated soldiers under him had already been dispersed, and the soldiers could not find the generals, nor the generals could find the soldiers, so his orders could not be conveyed at all, at most, he could only let more than a thousand personal guards around him listen to the order, and he couldn't care much about it, in fact, his current mentality was similar to that of ordinary soldiers, as long as he could escape back, the life and death of others was not important to him.

"It's coming!" At the same time, Huyan Shouxin, who was in ambush behind the mountain beam, suddenly snorted, and then put down the telescope in his hand and said very excitedly, the telescope in his hand was given to him by Li Zhang, but this telescope was made by Li Zhang, and it was made of glass on the plane.

"Where?" Cao Ma couldn't help but ask eagerly when he heard this, and then Hu Yan Shouxin handed him the telescope in his hand, and Cao Ma also held it up in front of him very carefully to watch it carefully.

I saw that in the attached team in the distance, there was a relatively neat group of party members, this party cavalry everyone had horses, and their clothes were relatively neat, not as embarrassed as other party members, and among these people, there were a few people who were protected by the regiments, and at a glance they knew that they were the top leaders of the party.

"It's a little far away, I can't see the appearance of the person being protected, I'll take a look when I'm closer, I've seen Li Deming before and recognize his appearance!" Cao Yu held the telescope and looked at it for a long time, and finally let go of his helplessness, the other party was still far away from them, even with the help of this telescope, he couldn't see the other party's appearance clearly.

"Then wait a little longer, if we can kill Li Deming, then we will have the first credit!" Hu Yan Shouxin looked at the defeated party soldiers on the ghost horse road, and then spoke again, at this time, there were already party members passing the road under their feet, but in order to lure Li Deming over, they could only let these people go.

"That...... Brother Huyan, if I kill Li Deming this time, can you give this to me? I saw Cao Yu gently stroking the telescope in his hand at this time, and then cheekily asked Hu Yan Shouxin for a reason, he really liked this telescope so much, he could find the traces of the other party several miles before the enemy, this is simply an artifact specially prepared for generals.

"Don't even think about it, this is what I finally asked for from Li Zhang, if you want it, go to Li Zhang yourself!" Hu Yan Shouxin heard that Cao Ma wanted his baby, so he grabbed it and said, he was reluctant to give away the telescope, when he was in the capital before, his father Hu Yan Bixian asked him for him and he didn't give it, let alone Cao Mata.

"Stingy, I'll look for Li Zhang when I go back!" Cao Yu saw Hu Yan's trustworthy appearance, and couldn't help but pout at the moment, but when his eyes fell on the telescope in the other party's hand, his heart was still a little itchy.

Just as he was speaking, the team suspected of Li Deming in the party's defeated army finally came to the road under their feet, Hu Yan Shouxin didn't know Li Deming, so he could only lend the telescope to Cao Ma again, and when Cao Ma saw the appearance of the people below, he immediately whispered excitedly: "That's right, the one in the middle who wears black iron armor and has a long beard is Li Deming!" ”

"The whole army is ready!" I saw Cao Ma put down the binoculars in his hand and immediately ordered his subordinates, and then I saw him raise the short gun in his hand and shoot the first shot at the party members below.

"Slap~" With Cao Mata's crisp gunshot, the ambushed musketeers also immediately opened fire, and for a while, the ghost horse road was covered by a rain of bullets, and the party members who were shot also fell off their horses, and the sound of people shouting and neighing horses was endless.

"It's not good, rush!" Hearing the gunfire overhead, Li Deming also reacted immediately, and immediately whipped the horse that straddled down, and commanded the guards around him to accelerate and rush forward.

In fact, Li Deming's judgment is very accurate, the ghost horse road is very narrow, and the front and rear are blocked by the defeated soldiers under him, but in comparison, there are fewer people in front, not to mention that there are still the pursuers of the Great Song Dynasty behind, so if you retreat at this time, I am afraid that you can only die, but if you can rush through the ambush of the Song army, there may be a glimmer of life.

The guards around Li Deming also understood what he meant, and immediately drew their waist knives and began to rush forward, but those who dared to stand in front of them, no matter who they were, would be directly cut down by them, so that they could clear the way as soon as possible, otherwise they would all die here.

However, although Li Deming's plan was good, he didn't know that the musketeers above his head had locked his position, and under the command of Cao Yu and Hu Yan Shouxin, several teams of musketeers concentrated their fire on Li Deming's side, which also caused heavy losses to the guards around him, and even he himself was shot, but this shot just grazed his arm, although it cut a wound, but it was not serious.

"Father~" But at this moment, Li Deming only heard a miserable cry around him, and then saw his son Li Chengyu was shot and fell off the horse, and fell in front of his horse, but Li Chengyu did not die, but reached out to let Li Deming pull himself, so that the father and son rode the same horse, and he might still survive.

However, Li Deming was frightened at this time, especially when there were bullets all around him, which made him feel that his life was on the verge of death, so at this time, he was ruthless, and Tima ran past Li Chengyu, which made Li Chengyu a little stunned at first, and then his face was also full of desperate expressions.
