Chapter 32: Resolving the Crisis (2)
On the south mountainside, General Huangjia still stubbornly led the army forward, although it was difficult, but he also moved towards the mountain step by step. He was surrounded and protected by the soldiers with shields, and he could not command freely, so he had to shout loudly as he walked, so that the officers and soldiers still did not dare to retreat.
"Report!" At this time, a soldier with a black and gray face staggered up and cried loudly to General Huangjia: "Report to the general, our camp has been burned ......."
"What's going on? Who did this to you! General Huang Jia was originally anxious, but at this time, he was even more angry and shouted loudly.
The soldier cried: "Report to the general, my subordinates don't know, and our grain and grass are also ...... Also burned......"
"Wow lala......" General Huang Jia shouted angrily, brandished his long sword, slashed indiscriminately, and the surrounding shields clanged, and he cursed in his mouth: "Stupid! A sucker! Useless stuff! ”
After scolding for a while, he said to the soldier: "Go and inform Wutuli to come and support here, we will attack it in one go......"
The soldier snorted: "Report to the general, someone has just been to the north, and General Wu has already ...... Already rushed up the hill ......"
"Idiot! Idiot! Idiot! General Huangjia scolded again, raised his long sword, and shouted into the mountains: "You bandits, turtles with shrunken heads, are as timid as rats, and you will come out for me to fight to the death!" ”
His shouts were loud, but there was no response at all, and there was no sound in the mountains except for the occasional cry of his own soldiers falling for their lives.
"Damn bandits, get me out! I'll fight to the death with my grandfather! Come out! I'm going to chop you into meat sauce with a knife" General Huang Jia was angry, bared his teeth and scolded: "Are you afraid? There's a kind of ...... come out."
Unfortunately, the mountain was as quiet as ever, the smoke was thick, and there was no one around except for the scattered officers and soldiers.
He still didn't give up, he walked slowly all the way, scolded all the way, and his voice was loud, for fear that the people in the mountains would not hear. It's just that he shouted like this, not realizing that his whereabouts were completely exposed.
At this time, Su Lian and the others, who were rushing towards the mountain, also heard this shouting and scolding. Su Lian originally wanted to go back to the village to report to everyone about the situation of the officers and soldiers and the situation that the camp tent under the mountain had been burned and the Tartars would retreat, so that everyone could rest assured.
Hearing the shout at this moment, he immediately stopped and beckoned to Zheng Shou, and the three of them slowly disappeared towards the voice.
"Guts bandit boar, you come out for me! Grandpa pinched you to death! Come out, come out and die for grandpa! Damn ......" General Huang Jia still kept scolding, not too tired, and conscientious.
He didn't feel it at all, and at this time he was being stared at by a pair of eyes in the dark......
Su Lian took the bow and arrow, set up the arrow, bent the bow, aimed, and drew the bow......
"Whew!" , a loud sound, poof, General Huangjia's scolding stopped abruptly. The soldiers with shields around them didn't know it until General Huangjia fell and smashed into one of the soldiers, and the soldiers turned back.
I saw that General Huangjia stuck a feather arrow in his throat, blood spurted, and he was already killed.
"The Major General is dead!" The soldier shouted loudly, suddenly dropped his shield, and ran wildly down the mountain, shouting all the way: "The young general is dead...... The Major General is dead......"
When the soldiers heard the shouting, there was also a great chaos, and the originally untidy ranks were even more chaotic at this time, and each of them threw away their armor and rushed down the mountain.
"Kill!" Zheng Shou shouted, shook his hand and rushed out. As soon as he took the lead, the brothers in the surrounding ambush immediately rushed out, and more than 200 people chased after the officers and soldiers who fled in the desert, and slaughtered them in a painful manner.
Although beating the water dog was enjoyable enough, Su Lian only slaughtered a few of them, and did not chase them all the way. The brothers in the village were killed, and chased them until they reached the foot of the mountain, and then they laughed and retreated.
Zheng Shou also chased down, his eyes were red all the way to kill, he really couldn't see that he was an elegant-looking scribe, he was so arrogant, he followed Su Lian for most of the night, and he still had the strength to kill the enemy with his own hands.
"Haha......" Zheng Shou returned to the mountain, patted Su Lian on the shoulder, and laughed: "Brother Su, it's so happy, it's been a long time since I've been so happy!" Haha......"
He was covered in blood, his eyes were red, and he felt comfortable, could it be that this was the taste of the battlefield?
Looking at the corpses all over the mountains, Su Lian didn't have much excitement in his heart. The officers and soldiers of this battle were completely defeated, more than 2,000 people, only half of them retreated, there was no loss in the village, but thousands of Tartars had been killed, and everyone was full of excitement and joy.
For some reason, although he won this game, Su Lian was vaguely worried. He thought that in the future, maybe more and bigger battles were coming.
Seeing that the east had gradually appeared white, Su Lian suddenly felt tired, and beckoned to Zheng Shou: "Brother Zheng, let's go back." ”
The three of them slowly went up the mountain, and when they returned to the village, they were stunned by the scene in front of the walled gate.
The morning is slightly bright, and the dew has just risen. On both sides of the steps in front of the wall, there were already people standing. People automatically lined up, out of the middle way, and when Su Lian and the three of them appeared in front of the door, they immediately shouted and applauded.
"Brother Su, I have never received such an honor, thanks to you, haha......" Zheng Shou said with a smile.
"Brother Zheng, brothers, take care of each other, one person can't do great things no matter what, and the merit is naturally everyone's brother!" Su Lian smiled and pulled Zheng Shou to go up together.
Several people climbed the stairs and waved and smiled at the crowd. Walking to the door of the middle section of the chamber, Guo Rongtai, Ye Kanglong, and Sun Deya all stood in front of the stage to welcome the return of several people. Although Ye and Sun were helpless, they were also smiling and applauding non-stop at the moment.
Ye Wuyang also stood at the front of the team, waving and applauding Su Lian, seeing Su Lian coming over, she was even more happy, dancing her hands, dancing and laughing, like a flower blooming.
"Brother Su, hard work!" Guo Rongtai took a few steps forward, pulled Su Lian's arm, and said with a smile: "This time I can retreat from a strong enemy, Brother Su has arranged it properly, and he has made great strategizing!" ”
"Big boss, this is the result of the concerted efforts of all brothers, and I dare not take credit alone! I should thank the brothers for their hard work and work together! Su Lian smiled modestly.
Guo Rongtai nodded with satisfaction and said: "The brothers are naturally hard, but Brother Su has a clear mind, is not chaotic at all, responds to the law, and commands calmly, this is the first work." Guo Rongtai said to everyone at the bottom of the stairs again: "Do you think so?" ”
"Yes!" "That's what the big boss said!" "Brother Su's head work!" "Brother Su doesn't have to be humble!" Everyone shouted together, happy and excited.
"After a hard night's work, it's better to go and rest first...... Guo Rongtai said: "Let's discuss the follow-up later!" ”
Several people were really tired, and they were not polite at the moment, thanked several masters and the crowd, and went back to rest.
At this time, the North Mountain Pass, Wutuli also retreated down the mountain. They were rushing towards the mountain in a hurry, but although they encountered an ambush in the mountain, they were outnumbered and still moved slowly towards the mountain step by step. At this time, news came from the south, saying that the major general had been killed by an arrow, and the grain and grass in the battalion had been destroyed and burned. Although Wutuli and General Wang temporarily stabilized the hearts of the people, the army had no intention of fighting and retreated.
One stepped back, and the others followed. The originally unstable morale of the army collapsed at once, and the officers and men no longer had the heart to go up, and they collapsed in all directions for a while, and it was useless to shout loudly in the vultures. The people in the ambush in the village rushed out in time to slash and kill, which made the officers and soldiers even worse and grabbed the sky.
Although it was only a loss of three to five hundred people, the death of the major general undoubtedly became a big stone that weighed on everyone's hearts. Wu Tuli also felt powerless, and he shuddered at the thought of the young general's father's methods. If the father of the major general learns the news, he will not be able to escape the blame, and I am afraid that he will have to peel off a layer of skin if he does not die. Every time I thought of this, I was suffocated for a while.
The soldiers walked down the mountain in a hurry, and they fell behind in the vultures, and when they saw that the army was depressed, they wanted to say a few words of encouragement, but they couldn't get out of their mouths, and they were extremely uncomfortable.
General Wang looked at the scattered formation, felt sorry for himself, mustered up his strength, shouted, and ordered all the soldiers to sort out the formation and line up, when suddenly an earth-shattering shout came from a distance. Everyone's hearts were cold, and they stared blankly at the dust splashed in the northeast direction......
