Chapter 600: Spotting the Ambush (Second Update, Asking for Subscription)
"It is very likely that Li Shimin has already begun to arrange, and even on the way to Tongguan, we will be ambushed by gunpowder, so we must not take it lightly." Luo Cheng's eyes swept slightly, and he said firmly.
Luo Cheng's consideration has its own reason, and everyone also said yes after hearing it.
After finishing the order, Luo Cheng still did not relax, he directly found Yao Ping, and said: "It is difficult to leave this matter to others, you lead the Snapdragon Army to check, and you must not fall into an ambush by the enemy." ”
Instead of leading troops to explore the road by themselves, it is better to let the Snapdragon Army explore in advance to avoid too many casualties. This is already a very appropriate disposition, and there are other appropriate ones.
In fact, after hearing that Luo Cheng was leaving, Li Shimin began to prepare. With the bonus of thunder punishment, it undoubtedly added a little self-confidence to Li Shimin.
Such a newborn product can often have unexpected effects, and it is really the most suitable to deal with Yan Yun's army. Although it is still difficult to defeat Luo Cheng, there are always more opportunities.
It was Li Shimin who asked people to be at a certain distance outside Tongguan and arranged this thunder punishment. As long as Luo Cheng arrives with the troops, he will be ignited, and then he will be able to watch a good show.
Luo Cheng's impression on Li Shimin is naturally extremely profound, which can be seen from the size of the stones. Although he has a good relationship with Luo Cheng, it is good to be able to see him deflated.
But soon, Li Shimin found that things were not so simple, and the cautiousness shown by the enemy army surprised him, could it be that Luo Cheng had already discovered something?
In this way, aren't all his plans in vain?
Li Shimin suddenly felt a sense of powerlessness in his heart, and what he was thinking about didn't seem to have much effect. Could it be that this is the gap between himself and Luo Cheng? It's sentimental.
In the absence of a think tank around him, Li Shimin said that his brain hurts.
But Li Shimin still prayed, hoping that Luo Cheng was just investigating carefully, and did not find anything abnormal. Anyway, it's his own brother, so I want to give him some face.
It's a pity that the reality is not as beautiful as Li Shimin imagined, Yao Ping and the scouts are getting closer and closer. It was as if he was about to find out his soldiers who were lying in ambush here, and the situation was quite critical.
If those soldiers are captured, even the thunder punishment will be leaked, which is not a good thing. Strictly speaking, this matter is even more important than fighting enemy troops.
After a little hesitation, Li Shimin made up his mind, even if he gave up this opportunity. Nor can the enemy get a thunderbolt penalty, so he directly makes people beat the drums, which is a signal arranged in advance.
Those soldiers were lying in ambush outside the pass, so it was naturally difficult to get Li Shimin's direct orders. Only through such signals can the message be delivered as quickly as possible and avoid missing the opportunity.
After receiving Li Shimin's order, those soldiers were a little hesitant, after all, the previous order was not like this. But the military order is like a mountain, even if they are confused, they can only honestly ignite the fire.
The use of lightning punishment was not complicated, as long as the fuse was lit, and as the flame burned, the soldiers dispersed. It's all up to this, if you don't run away, won't it be cool?
At the same moment, Yao Ping also led the Snapdragon Army to investigate, their reconnaissance ability is extremely strong, and they are very sensitive to the wind and grass around them. They soon noticed something strange ahead.
The gunpowder was buried on the way, but as the fuse was lit, an inexplicable aura gradually emanated. This made Yao Ping, who had a keen perception, quickly notice something unusual.
In the crowd, Yao Ping swept his gaze, and he vaguely recalled his earlier time in Yangzhou. It is this feeling, the inexplicable but dangerous aura, that is unexpected.
Because Yao Ping had felt such danger before, his reaction was much sharper. He quickly realized that the enemy must have buried gunpowder here, or even ignited it.
Glancing his gaze out, Yao Ping suddenly saw a hidden fuse, and his face suddenly changed. The enemy has set up an ambush here, and the fuse has already been lit, and it is too late to organize it.
"Hurry back."
Yao Ping didn't have time to explain anything, so he shouted loudly.
The Snapdragon Army has always been forbidden by order, before Luo Cheng, and the same is true in front of Yao Ping.
So the Snapdragon Army quickly retreated, but before they could run away completely, the fuse finally burned to the end.
"Bang."
A loud bang came, and the terrifying wave of qi directly lifted the dirt and pounced on the Snapdragon Army.
For such an unconscious attack, Luo Cheng had already explained to them, and everyone fell to the ground without hesitation, although this posture was a little shameful, it could minimize the damage.
After a wave of explosions, everyone could be regarded as relieved and got up in disgrace. Yao Ping's eyes swept around, but the enemy army had already withdrawn at this moment, and all he could see was the mess on the ground.
Slowly exhaling a breath of turbidity, Yao Ping said in a deep voice: "Let's go and see what the situation is, if we don't find any traces of the enemy, I will go back to report to the marshal first, so as not to have more accidents." ”
Although it also has a gunpowder bonus, it is still terrifyingly dangerous. Yao Ping didn't take it lightly, after all, if he wasn't careful, he might be killed.
Yao Ping took someone to investigate, but did not find too many traces, so he went back to inform Luo Cheng.
After Luo Cheng heard this, he was a little surprised, but after all, he guessed Li Shimin's thoughts, and he was not too excited. He wouldn't even be surprised if it weren't for the enemy's decisive ignition.
"The people of the world really wanted to design an ambush, but when they were discovered, they should have been afraid of exposing the gunpowder, so they hurriedly set people on fire, rather than waiting for them to enter the ambush." Luo Cheng smiled and said.
Yao Ping was a little embarrassed, after all, this is a fateful thing, if Li Shimin delays some longer, I am afraid that the Snapdragon Army will also pay a certain number of casualties, which is not what he wants to see.
After groaning, Luo Cheng continued: "Although the ambush here has been cracked, the people of the world are not people who are willing to give up, so you still need to be careful and continue to find out the situation along the way." ”
For Luo Cheng's orders, Yao Ping has never completed them without discounting, and this is no different at this moment. After giving up the order, he led the Snapdragon Army to continue to move forward, much more carefully than before.
After all, it was a ghost gate that was closed, how could you not be more cautious?
……
Seeing that Yan Yun's army was still marching in an orderly manner, Li Shimin was suddenly a little helpless. His own arrangement was completely disrupted by Luo Cheng, this is really out of common sense!
Having said that, Li Shimin still did not retreat, the war had not yet begun, and he had to hold on for a while longer. I don't know what means Luo Cheng will use next.
Li Shimin's eyes were slightly condensed, showing considerable caution.
