Chapter 1018 How can you walk by the river without getting your shoes wet

A thousand Ming troops, with swords and shields on both sides and a hand in the middle, slowly entered the ravine.

Wang Fuchen walked ahead, looking at the hills on both sides of the ravine from time to time, although these hills were far less steep than the camel peak, but it was easier to hide troops, and it was no problem to ambush nearly 10,000 horses.

The soldiers looked around vigilantly, and the trees on the hills on both sides, under the illumination of the moonlight and the blowing of the mountain wind, the shadows were like devils with teeth and claws, making people's hearts beat faster and their palms sweaty.

A thousand people did not dare to gasp loudly and stepped on the stones, and the wind rustled the leaves in the woods, hiding the footsteps of the soldiers and the sound of the rubbing of the armor.

A soldier looked around, tripped over a stone without paying attention, rushed forward a few steps and hit his comrade, almost fell, the team immediately commotioned, the soldier hurriedly whispered: "It's okay, the stone tripped a little!" ”

When the surrounding soldiers heard the noise, they restored order and continued to move forward.

In the woods on the hills on either side, a few branches were pulled apart and a human head sticked out. The head glanced out by the moonlight, and found that an infantry army was passing from below in the ravine, and the head observed it for a while, then retracted it, and then said to the general sitting next to him: "The Ming army really took this road, and the handsome man is really clever!" ”

Guangyuan is the exit of the Golden Bull Road in Sichuan, and the current situation is not suitable for the Jin army to hold on for a long time.

After the loss of the Chengdu Plain, the food supply of the Jin army could only come from Hanzhong, so the Jin army of Guangyuan must have to return to Hanzhong, because it was impossible to pass through the thousands of miles of plank road from Hanzhong to transport grain to help them replenish, which was too cost-effective.

The general is Hu Guozhu, he saw the arrival of Ma Jinzhong and Li Dingguo, the Ming army outside the Hump Pass has reached 50,000 or 60,000 people, the Ming army saw that the right road was not passable, it was inevitable to take a detour, and he only had 10,000 people, once the Ming army went around his back, he would be difficult to resist.

The Jin army ruled Sichuan for several years, and the Jin state knew no less about the terrain of Sichuan than the Ming army, and Hu Guozhu had already paid attention to each trail, and found out the time it took to complete each trail from the mouths of the local mountain people.

During this time, Hu Guozhu urged Chen Junji, the prefect of Hanzhong, to deliver materials day and night, and finally in the afternoon of the day before yesterday, most of Guangyuan's materials were transported, and some of the things that could not be transported away, he could only give up.

At this time, Hu Guozhu should have quietly retreated, burned the plank road, and retreated to Hanzhong, but he was a little unwilling in his heart, and he didn't want the Ming army to get the whole of Sichuan so easily, so he decided to fight an ambush for the Ming army, and then evacuate after teaching the Ming army a lesson.

Hearing this, he also glanced down at the branch, and after a while, he turned his head back, and then said to himself: "What kind of clever calculation is this, the Ming army is afraid that the marshal will empty Guangyuan, so he naturally has to take the nearest trail over." If you use dim sum, you can be clever too! ”

The general touched his head and smiled, and then asked Zhengse, "Marshal, since the Ming army has entered the urn, when will we do it!" ”

"What a big risk is Ben Shuai taking, is it just for this little pawn?" Hu Guozhu smiled coldly, confident, "You continue to observe, the big fish is still behind!" ”

In the ravine, Wang Fuchen had already walked half the way, he looked at the hills on both sides, there was nothing abnormal, and he whispered: "Don't relax, I'm about to go out!" ”

Li Dingguo led 2,000 men and horses, has arrived at the entrance of the ravine, the troops stopped for a long time, there was no problem in the ravine, Wang Fuchen's 1,000 people were not attacked, Li Dingguo breathed a sigh of relief at the same time, he couldn't help but ask himself if he was too suspicious.

Yu Youming pressed the sword, paced back and forth at the entrance, walked for a while and suddenly came to Li Dingguo's side, clasped his fists and said: "General, the time Wang Fuchen should have passed, and there was no accident in the ravine, should we also go over immediately?" ”

Li Dingguo didn't say anything, his eyes looked at the two raised hills, pondered for a while, he pondered for a while, and then suddenly said to Youming: "Order a thousand people, go again!" ”

Li Dingguo made good use of ambushes, he was still a little worried, if he set up an ambush, he would not move the vanguard in front, he would definitely let go of the forward and ambush the brigade behind, so as to obtain the greatest results.

"Will the general be too careful?" Yu Youming hesitated for a moment and questioned.

Li Dingguo waved his hand, "It doesn't take much time, be careful to sail the ship for 10,000 years, use the soldiers should be strange, and be cautious when you should be cautious. ”

When Yu Youming heard this, he could only bow his head slightly, and then transferred another thousand people, ordered a thousand households, and led him through the ravine.

Because Wang Fuchen had already passed, the spirit of the 1,000 people this time was much more relaxed, and after receiving the order, they immediately marched towards the ravine, and the speed was doubled.

At this time, among the trees, the head of the person sticking out of the woods shrank back again, "Dashuai, here you are again, but there don't seem to be many people!" ”

Hu Guozhu was slightly stunned, and hurriedly turned around to look down, although he couldn't see it clearly, but judging from the outline, it should be similar to the first batch of people who walked over.

"Dashuai, do you want to fight?" The next subordinate asked.

Hu Guozhu's face couldn't help but be entangled for a while, how can there be as many rear armies as there are front armies? He knew that he had met a master, and suddenly Hu Guozhu smiled on his face, "Ben Shuai knows who the general of the leader is, it must be Li Dingguo, Li Laohu!" Ma Jinzhong and Wang Deren are not wise generals, and there are many Li Dingguo in the Ming army. ”

Several generals around him were shocked when they heard this, Li Laohu ambushed and killed Aobai, the first warrior of Dajin, and designed to besiege the emperor of Jin, he was a ruthless character, with thick thighs.

"Wait! Killing Li Laohu is more important than hurting more than 1,000 people and horses of the Ming army! Hu Guozhu suddenly became a little excited in his heart.

In the ravine, the 1,000 Ming army passed smoothly again, without any accidents, not even a single bird was encountered.

Li Dingguo stood up when he saw this, it seemed that he was scaring himself and making a false alarm, "It may be that Ben will think too much." Let the sons and daughters get up, and the whole army will pass quickly and join the front army! ”

"Get up and go!" When Yu Youming heard this, he immediately waved his hand and beckoned the rest of the people and horses to stand up, and more than 1,000 people slowly walked forward towards the ravine.

The army finally entered the ravine, Li Dingguo walked in the forefront, the courage of the soldiers, he was not only a wise general who was good at using soldiers, but also had extraordinary force, always charging in front and retreating in the rear, so he was supported by the soldiers.

With Li Dingguo in front, and the two teams in front of him passed normally, the soldiers relaxed a little, but Li Dingguo, who was walking in the front, did not relax his vigilance, and only after successfully passing through the ravine, he could really rest assured.

"Dashuai, it's time to do it!" The branches were removed, this was already the third wave, and the generals were a little anxious.

Hu Guozhu looked at the people below, and a sneer came out of his nose, "It's time to do it!" Tell the soldiers, fire ten thousand arrows at once, and move quickly. As soon as our side makes a move, the Ming army in Hump Mountain will know, so we only have half an hour, and after solving the battle, we will immediately retreat to the plank road! ”

Hu Guozhu was a little excited in his heart, and the success of today's battle was to avenge the battle in eastern Sichuan.

Suddenly, a trumpet sounded, suddenly sounded in the darkness, and the sound of killing on the hill immediately spread everywhere, followed by the sound of breaking the sky, and the screams and screams of the soldiers rang out in one place.

Li Dingguo's expression was suddenly shocked, and while pulling out his war knife and blocking the arrows, he roared angrily, "Don't panic, rush forward, the front army will meet us!" ”
