Chapter 199: Ambush
In this world of great contention, the changes in the national strength of various countries are like sailing against the current, and if they do not advance, they will retreat.
It is undoubtedly the misfortune of a country to have a dim-eyed and short-sighted king, and if this emperor is still an old man who has lost his ambitions, then the whole country will not be able to run at the starting line.
In the end, Yang Mu had no choice but to settle for the next best thing and reached a consensus with the Emperor of Dongguo that the two countries would not invade each other and strengthen cooperation.
Obviously, the Emperor of the Dong Kingdom did not take the new vassal state of Cangguo in his eyes at all, and he did not expect that in the battle between himself and the Sheng State, Cangguo could help anything.
……
In the blink of an eye, it was already the middle of June.
The emperors of various countries should have seen also, in the meeting with the emperor of the Jin State, also discussed some civil caravan exchanges, Yang Mu said that he would send some envoys to Jincheng to join the Jin Alliance.
The emperors of various countries returned one after another, and Yang Mu also set off to return to China, and after nearly ten days of travel, he arrived at the junction of Dong and Sheng.
"Not good! There is an ambush! ”
Suddenly, Miao Xi stood up from the side of the dragon chariot, looked around vigilantly, lit a torch, and summoned the glass ink bee back.
Glassbee pointed in a direction, and there were a large number of ambushes there.
"This ...... It seems that Sheng Guo is preparing to make a move on the border, and then blame Dong Guo. ”
Yang Mu's face was gloomy, this is the border between the two countries, if his group dies here, even if everyone knows it, in the context of the preparation of these countries, even the Jin State will not pursue it.
Even, this is more in line with the original intention of the Jin Kingdom, confusing the pool of water in the world, which is more conducive to its hegemony.
"Your Majesty, can we pretend to be merchants and return home from the trade route?" Ji Ling'er asked.
Yang Mu shook his head: "I have had a short exchange with the Emperor of that Shengguo, he is a scheming person, he will not fail to think of this, he must have blocked all the passages between the two countries, presumably at this time, it is very likely to mobilize the army, Chen Bing Shengcang border." ”
Hearing this, everyone changed color in unison.
Blocking the passage between the two countries can also detour through Yanguo to go back, but if it is the border of Chen Bing and take this opportunity to start a war, it will be bad.
Cangguo's military strength is relatively small, if His Majesty the Emperor does not rush back, the people in the country are unstable, why fight?
"Boom—"
Like the sound of the earth shaking and the mountains shaking, the violent sound is approaching from afar.
From a distance, a black shadow appeared on the eastern horizon, and horses galloped towards this side, and on horseback were soldiers in military armor, murderous.
Ambush!
"Your Majesty, please take refuge for the time being, and let Weichen cut it off." Hu Xiao pulled out the knife at his waist with a serious expression.
In the rear, more than 1,000 pro-guards were in full array, took out crossbow arrows and other equipment, and waited for the ambush soldiers on the opposite side to rush over and fight to the death.
Yang Mu frowned, looked at the other side, and asked: "This is the border between the two countries, Sheng Guo doesn't dare to send too many people, there should only be this wave, two or three thousand people, are you sure to annihilate two or three thousand people?" ”
"Your Majesty, rest assured! My personal guards have all practiced the martial arts given by the queen's mother, and there is no problem in dealing with ordinary soldiers! Hu Xiao clenched his fists, then bowed his head and said: "Please also ask Miaoxi Niangniang to escort Your Majesty to take refuge temporarily, and wait for us to face the battle." ”
Miao Xi nodded, asked the dragon chariot to turn around, and protected Yang Mu to retreat towards the rear.
The ambush on the horizon approached closer and closer, and the smoke and dust were rolled up, and when they reached within a hundred feet, a small number of people rode horses to outflank them, while the rest came down from their horses, and then set up their positions.
Yang Mu looked at it and shook his head, if these three thousand volts could really use the advantages of good horses, then today, his thousand guards might really have to be explained here, and at most, he could only return to the territory of the cave country by the same way under the protection of Miao Xi and become an exiled emperor.
But now, the horses under the crotches of the Sheng Guo armor soldiers are just a means of transportation, and this group of people choose to dismount and fight, so the outcome is unpredictable.
"Whoosh-"
"Whoosh-"
"Whoosh-"
……
The hundreds of repeating crossbows placed on the ground, like a machine gun, frantically sprayed arrows, and the rain of arrows in the sky was thrown into Sheng Guo's military array.
Like harvesting wheat, the three thousand armor soldiers of the Shen Kingdom fell one by one.
The enemy generals were horrified and quickly ordered their soldiers to disperse in all directions, change into columns, and advance in a circle.
However, this wave just now not only caused heavy losses to the soldiers of Shengguo, but also made all the soldiers frightened, and the original majestic momentum has disappeared.
The two sides fought together.
At this time, the gap between the pro-guard army and the Shengguo armor was also revealed, although the Cangguo pro-guard army had not practiced the internal martial arts, but after all, they had learned superficial martial arts, and when it came to frontal fighting, it was not comparable to ordinary soldiers, and the individual combat ability was much stronger than that of this group of soldiers in Shengguo.
When the main forces of the two sides fought together, a small number of Sheng Guo's soldiers and horses also caught up with Yang Mu's dragon chariot.
As the saying goes, open guns are easy to dodge and dark arrows are difficult to defend, even if Miao Xi is a master who is infinitely close to the innate realm, he can only protect Yang Mu's surroundings and dare not take the initiative to attack.
"Buzz ......"
Miao Xi took out her small gourd, released the glass ink bee, and pounced on the armor soldiers sitting on the horses.
It can be seen that these horses are the elite of the army, and after seeing the pitch-black thing flying towards them, they began to dodge.
However, that doesn't change anything.
The glass ink bee is a small insect with high poison, and no matter how elite these soldiers are, after being stung by a bite, they will feel unwell for more than a dozen breaths, and then plant the horse.
In the distance, the second man with the Jinyi guard also rushed over.
After about a cup of tea, all the armor soldiers who caught up were all eliminated, and the brocade guards went to reinforce the pro-guard troops who were fighting.
This battle lasted for half an hour, and the ambush soldiers of Sheng Guo were all wiped out, and they were hated by the crossbows and the elite guards.
After the war, the Cangguo side lost more than 200 people and captured more than 3,000 war horses.
What is now in front of Yang Mu is not a security issue, but how to return to China.
Continuing to move forward, it will definitely not work to return to China by way of Shengguo, and it is not realistic to go back from Yanguo over the mountains and mountains, and it is impossible to return to China without a few months of travel.
Because once you enter the mountains and mountains, you will be isolated from the world, and if you can't get any news of yourself for a month or two, you may have some kind of chaos, and you may have no fighting spirit, and you will be wiped out by Sheng Guo in one fell swoop.
"Fuck! After thousands of calculations, I didn't expect Jin Guo to play cards according to the routine, and now everyone doesn't talk about the rules at all! Yang Mu couldn't help but curse secretly, in the face of the cruel reality, it would be useless to let him have ten more libraries in his mind.
