This cave hall is very large and spacious, and it is not a problem to live in a thousand children and 800 people, and there are more than ten small rooms separated from the inner side, which are very exquisitely decorated, and are obviously intended for high-ranking officers. Sugar hua rainbow

Kim so-jong was surprised and delighted, this was the place he was looking for, but where was the person he was looking for

The whole cave hall was empty, and there was no one left.

His guards searched all the rooms, and in the largest, most elaborately decorated room, they found a dozen wooden crates containing grayish-white powdered things.

"There are also discoveries outside the cave, I don't know what they are." A leader grabbed a handful of powder and showed it to Kim Xiuzong, who didn't recognize what it was, he called the masked: "Do you know each other?"

The masked man's face changed drastically, and he said in a trembling voice, "This is gunpowder." ”

"Gunpowder" Jin Xiuzong couldn't help but scream, although gunpowder is a rare thing, he has not only seen it but also knows how powerful it is.

Kim so-jong opened all the wooden boxes in one go, and his face became desperate.

"Withdraw."

At the sound of an order, he turned around and left.

The leader who was in charge of the broken road came briskly, blocked him in the corridor, and said to him, "We are surrounded, and they have closed the door from the outside, but I didn't expect that this door can be latched on both sides." ”

"Open the door now"

Jin Xiuzong roared loudly, this is the first time since the start of the war, the commander's panic immediately caused the uneasiness of the soldiers, although there are not many Silla soldiers who entered the cave, they are all elite for a while, not only are they skilled, but also have super psychological quality, the landslide is in front and the complexion remains the same, but now the commander is panicked, how can they still be calm

When the clanging sound of axes and chisels sounded, the troops in charge of the perimeter of the Black Crested Head, who had received the internal warning and were lurking in the dense forests at the foot of the Eastern High Mountains, rushed to the command post to come to the rescue, numbering about 1,500 people.

"That's right, the main force of the Black Crested is all here."

Li Mao did not hide his excitement, because the excitement involved the shoulder wound, the pain was dripping with cold sweat, the poison fed by the Silla people on the flying knife was too strong, and a large piece of skin and flesh on Li Mao's shoulder was instantly necrotic, and he had to cut it all off.

"Didn't you say that there are three thousand black crests, and this is only two thousand."

"The Black Crested Head is called 8,000, but in fact there are only 3,000, and it is not something that Silla can afford to support such an army. One thousand out of three thousand were stationed north of the palace and were the king's own army, directly under the king himself. There are only 2,000 people who can go out to fight, this time it is a dumping out, this is the information we just got, General Qin, you can explain the source of this information. ”

"This information was provided by a big man in Silla, it is absolutely reliable, if anything goes wrong, you will cut off my head."

Seeing Qin Mo's oath, everyone believed that General Qin was witty, good at talking big and indiscriminately setting off empty cannons, but he would never be nonsense in this kind of matter.

"Tear a little hole, let our old friend in for a reunion, and then send him to the western sky."

Li Mao took the initiative to disarm, and the rescued black crested head was like a moth to a fire, reoccupying the ground part of the Shannan command post, and they didn't feel that they had fallen into the plan to lure the king into the urn, not because the Silla people were stupid, but because of their terrifying combat power, Li Mao couldn't stop it even if he fought for his family.

"It's all in, it's time to go." Qin Mo rushed back from the front line and reported to Li Mao.

Li Mao sat upright, his hands on his knees, his head bowed, and made a contemplative gesture. The wound on his shoulder was carefully treated by Wang Nianfu, cutting off the carrion and removing the toxins, and it was no longer a major problem, but due to excessive blood loss, he was a little weak.

Wang Nianfu is Ge Rixiu's eldest disciple, and his medical skills are not higher than Chang Heqing's, so it took a lot of thought to invite him to sit in charge of Li Mao this time.

"Is there any news from the ponies, why is there no news?"

After Li Mao finished speaking, his eyes were full of tears, his plan to "invite you into the urn" seemed simple, but in fact, it took a lot of thought and made a lot of sacrifices, Ma Xiongan failed to retreat into the warehouse, and fell on the battlefield, I am afraid that it will be more auspicious. Read the full text of the latest chapter

Shi Xiong and Ma Xiongan are both very spiritual young generals, and they must be pillars of talent during holidays, so it is a pity to die in this way. Ma Hedong, who was standing on the side, had red eyes, and came out to worship: "Xiong'an can die for the handsome, and he will die without regrets." ”

"He is not only for me, but also for the people of Liaodong and for the great cause of Liaodong." Li Mao asked Qin Mo to help Ma Hedong up, and said to a gray-haired Taoist priest beside him, "Daoist Yu, you can start." ”

The Taoist priest stroked his beard and said with a smile: "You have to think about it, if this fire is lit, it will be a landslide." ”

Qin Mo said: "Order, order, the landslide will be the landslide, and it will save them a lot of trouble by sending them to heaven at once." ”

Daoist Yu turned around and was about to go, Chen Xiaoyi ran over in a hurry, he is now a confidential staff officer in the staff hall, responsible for the transmission of confidential information, because he saw a large number of people, Chen Xiaoyi slowed down, evened his breath, leaned over and muttered twice in Li Mao's ear.

Li Mao was shocked, and hurriedly reached out to pull the Taoist priest, because he used the injured hand, and his forehead suddenly hurt and sweated. Everyone looked at each other and looked at Chen Xiaoyi, who said sadly: "Miss Lan'er was taken captive by them. ”

These words are like a basin of cold water poured on everyone's hearts, and no one responds anymore, if Lan'er becomes a hostage of Jin Xiuzong, can this fire still be lit, but I am afraid that it will not be lit.

Chen Xiaoyi saw that everyone was unwilling, but he was helpless, so he had the courage to say the clever plan he had come up with, and he whispered in Li Mao's ear: "But leave Jin Xiuzong alive and write a letter to him to let him hide in the warehouse." ”

Li Mao was pleasantly surprised: "You judge that Jin Xiuzong will agree." Chen Xiaoyi said confidently: "If he is a man, he shouldn't sneak around to do this shady deed, the reason why he kidnapped Mrs. Ru is to leave a way back, so I conclude that he will agree." ”

When Li Mao heard this, he was immediately impressed by Chen Xiaoyi, and his expression improved significantly. He thought about it, called someone to get a pen and paper, and wrote a letter, so that Qin Mo would immediately pass it to Jin Xiuzong.

The iron door at the entrance of the warehouse is very strong, Jin Xiuzong has not been able to open it with great effort, just when he is at a loss, the door is opened from the outside, and the person who opened the door to meet him is the big leader Ziyunxuan, a figure similar to a military advisor and a supervisor in the black crested head,

"When they received the signal that we were besieged, they all rushed over, and we were all relieved to see that the commander was safe and sound." Ziyunxuan excitedly expressed his merit to Jin Xiuzong. When the slave army rushed to the rescue, he couldn't resist it, and had to send a special distress signal to the friendly forces on the periphery, and the eleven assistant leaders each led their men and horses to come to the rescue, and the inside and outside should join forces to kill the slave army, and once again occupied the Shannan command post.

The establishment of the black crested head is based on Zuo, with one hundred people to lead the army.

Jin Xiuzong helplessly glanced at the eleven leaders behind Ziyun, all the senior generals of the black crested head are here, and the elites are all here, this time there is a good show to watch.

"It's all coming"

"It's all here."

Seeing Jin Xiuzong looking into the distance, Ziyun Xuan would be wrong: "Although we are surrounded, their forces are very weak, and it is very simple to break out." ”

"Bastard, don't you see it's a trap?"

The white-clothed masked man behind Jin Xiuzong finally couldn't help but scold angrily, his voice was very sharp, it was a woman.

Ziyunxuan opened his mouth and couldn't answer, and after two snorts, he asked, "What about Li Mao, did you kill Li Mao?"

"It's a trap, and we've fallen for it."

Kim so-jong could only admit defeat, and when the craftsman opened the door, he also checked the other two doors at the entrance, one door had been blocked by rocks, and the other door was a false door, and when the door was opened, the stone wall was opened.

"They've withdrawn from the secret passage, the passage is sealed, and we're trapped here."

"Let's kill it. They are vulnerable. Ziyun Xuan was puzzled and argued loudly with Jin Xiuzong.

"Shut up, idiot"

The woman behind Jin Xiuzong scolded again, and Ziyunxuan didn't dare to say anything.

A junior colonel walked through the crowd, knelt down on one knee in front of Jin Xiuzong, and handed him a letter, Jin Xiuzong read it, pondered for a moment, and said: "Da Zuo Ling, Zi Yun and the eleven commanders went into the cave to discuss matters, and the rest of the people went up to the wall and entered the house, and stood by on the spot." ”

Everyone agreed, and Kim so-jong ordered the warehouse door to be closed on the grounds of secrecy. Turning and heading straight for the cave hall filled with gunpowder deep in the mountain, he sat on a wooden box full of gunpowder, bowed his head, and remained silent.

The generals looked at each other, and Ziyun Xuan mustered up the courage to ask.

Suddenly, the ground trembled violently, the mountain shook, and the roaring sound turned over half of the eastern high mountain from far and near, and the cave hall was filled with smoke, and the rubble flew wildly, like the end of the world.

The mountain collapsed, the sun and the moon were gone, and in the deafening explosion, half of the eastern high mountain and the command post on the mountain flew into the sky.

As soon as the aftermath of the explosion stopped, 500 bundles of slave troops, 300 Heiyu Marquis, and 200 Sabre troops went up the mountain to search for living people and mend knives in the ruins, and the 2nd Brigade of the 1st Division, the City Defense Garrison Bureau, the Security Bureau, and the 1st Battalion and 2nd Division of the 3rd Division, which had been ordered to rush in, all weaved a net on the periphery of the East High Mountain to ensure that no fish slipped through the net.

After a stick of incense, the dust and fog on the mountain dissipated, and someone sent a safety signal on the top of the mountain, Li Mao said: "Let's go to meet Jin Xiuzong." ”

Everyone advised him not to move, but to bring Jin Xiuzong for interrogation.

Li Mao sighed: "The person who comes is a guest, and you still have to take care of your face." ”

The carefully built stone steps up the mountain were gone, and the mountain road that was temporarily cleared was not easy to walk, Qin Mo and Chen Xiaoyi helped Li Mao climb the hillside with difficulty and came to the entrance of the old warehouse. The blast wave of the explosion hit the landslide, burying the iron gate of the entrance, which could not be opened for a while, and the sappers were picking iron picks to open the way.

Li Mao glanced down the mountain, and his heart was beating in shock, after a loud noise, the East High Mountain became a pile of gravel mountains, and then looked at the hundreds of bloody corpses that stopped in the open space in front of the cave, and his heart was even more emotional. He turned to the Taoist priest and said, "Congratulations, you have finally made you research a great killing weapon. ”

Yu Daoist's face was red and white, and he was smuggling for a long time, and Fang said: "I failed to refine this thing in alchemy, you said that you were going to open a ditch to blow up stones, and I took out the formula to dedicate it to you, my original intention was to use it for the benefit of all beings, and it was used by you to kill people, how could it be my original intention You said that you want to lose your life, I don't need you to congratulate me."

Yu Taoist said insincerely, it was he who designed the **.

Qin Mo thought that the sappers were too slow, and asked Daoist Yu: "Daoist, do you still have your **, come to a box, I will blow up this door." Yu Taoist said: "Good, good, the cave is full of gunpowder, do you want them to die?"

Qin Mo said with a smile: "I'm afraid that your gunpowder has failed, and the outside is blowing up, why doesn't it blow up" Yu Daoist said: "Nonsense, how can my ** fail is that your boss won't let me ignite it, so naturally it won't explode." ”

Just as he was shouting, the iron door opened, and a thick cloud of smoke and dust rolled out, and a few soldiers who couldn't dodge coughed violently, exchanged tears, and were embarrassed.

Qin Mo shouted: "It's over, Commander Jin has choked to death." ”

Daoist Yu sniffed and said, "There is no explosion inside, this is the dust that fell when the mountain shook, you have to save people quickly, this smoke and dust will kill people." ”

When Jin Xiuzong, Ziyunjian, Ziyunxuan, and the eleven commanders were rescued, except for Ziyunjian, who was still able to struggle to get up, the rest of the people only had one breath left.

She said to Li Mao coldly: "Mrs. Ru is in the Maxia River Mill south of the La Liga Battalion. He turned his face sideways, refusing to say anything more. Ziyun's appearance is extremely beautiful, and her figure is even more sultry. It's just that his eyes are like snakes and scorpions, and the sight of them makes people feel cold.

Li Mao waved her hand and asked her to take her away, and sent Chen Xiaoyi to save people. At the beginning, it was Chen Xiaoyi who offered a plan to let Jin Xiuzong retreat into the cave and save his life, he was a person who understood, and quickly told Lan'er's whereabouts in order to save his life.

Wang Nianfu is at the foot of the mountain at the moment, Li Mao was afraid that he would be kind enough to save people, so he did not agree to let him go up the mountain to save people, but at this moment he has a place to use. Qin Mo personally went down the mountain to pick him up.

After Jin Xiuzong was rescued, the first thing he said to Li Mao was: "The king of our country was deceived by traitorous ministers, and he made this mistake, and he had no intention of being an enemy of your country. I also don't want to be the enemy of your army, but the military order is like a mountain, so I have to obey. ”

Li Mao waved his hand to take the person down to recuperate, Qin Mo said to Li Mao excitedly: "I caught a big leader, twelve leaders, plus Jin Xiuzong himself, the black crested head was wiped out and was wiped out." The one called Ziyunjian, you've seen it, what is the first beauty in Silla, the second beauty in Liaodong, compared to her, she is a scumbag, Jin Xiuzong has the grace of knowing her, Ziyunxuan is her younger brother, she wants to sacrifice the hue to protect them, the opportunity must not be lost, do you want it or not, I will arrange it. ”

Li Mao glared at him: "Has the battle report been counted?"

Qin Mo said: "The staff hall is counting, I'll ask, hey, in fact, I know without asking, the two thousand black crests are all wiped out, and if they are not killed, they will also be mended." ”

Li Mao said: "I will hand over the eleven leaders to you, you have to take care of them, and you will need them in the future." ”

Qin Mo said: "Ziyun is also a leader, she is not among the eleven"

Li Mao said: "She only became a leader by the side door, it doesn't count, those eleven people have actual experience in training and commanding troops, and they are talents." ”

Qin Mo said: "I understand, you also want to train a few troops like the Black Crested to fight the black man." ”

Li Mao did not speak.

According to the battle report of the General Staff Office, 1,800 Black Crested Heads were annihilated, 103 were captured, and another 140 were missing. Li Mao asked: "What does it mean to be missing, someone came to report to you that they had smuggled human beings?"

The staff officer replied: "I found some broken corpses, I can't tell which side it is, I am verifying, it is estimated that it is theirs." ”

Li Mao said: "Don't estimate, come up with real data, your staff office is to help me make decisions, and the data are estimated, so how can I do it." ”

The staff officer stood dumbfounded.

Shi Kong smiled and sent the staff officer away, but said: "The head of Jindu is also the head of the staff hall, and he is busy with many things, and sometimes it is inevitable that he can't take care of it." ”

Li Mao said: "The General Staff Office is the core department of the three armed services, and it needs a competent person to preside over it. You see who is suitable. ”

Shi Kong smiled: "Such a big thing, I don't dare to talk nonsense, what is my identity." ”

Li Mao said: "How is Shixiong?"

Shi Xiong said: "He, so-so, if you really want him to do it, he can do it well, but isn't he leading the army outside." ”

Li Mao smiled and said, "Yes, General Shi came to the staff hall because he was a little aggrieved. ”

Shi Kong said: "Don't dare to say that he is wronged, the staff hall is at the same level as the division, and he can experience and learn skills under the commander, that is his blessing, and he can't ask for it." ”

The good thing about Shikong is that he does his duty, doesn't talk nonsense, and doesn't break the rules.

Li Mao smiled and asked again: "Has Xiong'an found it?"

Shi Kong sighed and said, "I found it in the pile of dead people, and someone slashed him on the forehead, Mr. Wang said that he was only thirty percent sure, and it depends on whether his life is big or not." ”

Ma Xiong'an was dug out of the pile of dead by the slave army, he was unconscious at the time, Mao Taigong took a look at it and said that this person was not good, and he was left in the wounded camp for a long time and no one cared about it, and then because of Li Mao's strict order, he was taken out of the wounded camp and handed over to Wang Nianfu, and the person had one breath left, and it was a miracle that he could survive until now without dying.

Li Mao heard that there was still thirty percent hope, and he was a little relieved.
