Chapter 288: The Wind Rises
"Yongfu...... What's wrong with you......" After suddenly seeing his most trusted scout leader crashing into the big tent with a serious injury, Wu Jue, who was already wearing armor and was about to leave the account, quickly leaned over and supported the other party.
"My lord......" Yongfu, the head of the scout who had lost too much blood and had a pale face, after being helped up, used up his last bit of strength, and roared with a hideous face: "Western Xia cavalry...... It was stationed in Laitan Town, ten miles to the north, and the town had been given to them by them...... When it was laid, the people of the city were ...... Slaughtered and emptied......"
After speaking, Yongfu, the leader of the spies who breathed a sigh of relief, tilted his head, burped his fart, he had already been seriously injured and died, just now he was hanging on to his life by the breath in his chest, and as soon as that breath was relaxed, he was ......
"Well......" After listening to Yongfu's "last words" before his death, Wu Jue, the god of war, who was still holding his corpse, was suddenly shocked, he understood that the distance of only ten miles was for a light cavalry with super mobility...... That means they can rush to themselves in less than a quarter of an hour.
Fortunately, Laitan Town is located on the north bank of the Qujiang River, and Yunmen Town is located on the south bank of the Qujiang River......
After completely knowing the enemy's movements, Wu Jue, who already had countermeasures in his heart, gently placed Yongfu's body on the marching bed in the tent, and gave an order to his younger brother Wu Luan, who had just entered the tent: "Wu Luan, all the battle plans I arranged before have been nullified, now, you quickly bring all our men into the city, and confront the cavalry in the wilderness outside the city, we have no advantage, we have to fight according to the city......"
What Wu Jue, the god of war who was giving the order, didn't know was that it was because of his order that the group of people under him was not wiped out, if he ordered these two thousand people to fight a positional battle with the special forces of the Western Xia Kingdom "Iron Harrier Army" outside the city, then in the end, the number of people they could survive was estimated to not even be in single digits.
And the reason why the "Iron Harrier Army" of the Western Xia Kingdom with thousands of people will slaughter the city in Laitan Town is that they do not want to reveal their whereabouts and carry out the "sealing" action, at this moment, because they already know that their whereabouts have been discovered by the spies of the Guang'an Army, therefore, in order to solve the "worries", they have decided to stew Yunmen Town, together with the Guang'an Army inside.
Just three minutes after the 2,000-strong infantry of the Guang'an Army poured into Yunmen Town in a chaotic manner, standing on the city wall and looking at Wu Jue in the north, he saw that as far as the eye could see, there was a burst of smoke.
After Yang Zheng ...... saw the movement in the distance, Wu Jue immediately ordered: "You take five hundred people to defend the south gate of the town!" ”
"Yes, sir!" After receiving the general's order, Yang Zheng, who knew how urgent the current situation was, immediately ran down the city wall and took a battalion of men and horses to guard the south gate of the city.
Because Yunmen Town is a small county with a population of less than 10,000 people, therefore, there are only a few hundred meters of city wall here, and there are only two small city gates in the north and south, or because Yunmen Town is a small county town and the financial resources are insufficient, so the city wall of this county is not high, almost only seven or eight meters away, and it is only three stories high, but also because Yunmen Town is a small county town and its strategic position is very low, so around the city wall, there is not even a moat, which is very embarrassing......
"Wu Xuan......" After seeing his subordinate Yang Zheng take a battalion of soldiers and horses to guard the south gate, Wu Yu turned his head and instructed his own brother: "You take a battalion of soldiers and horses to wait in the city, if the enemy only attacks one city wall, then you can lead the troops out from the other side of the city gate and attack their flank......"
"Yes, the general ......" After listening to this good idea proposed by his own brother, Wu Luan, who had learned another trick, went down to the city and prepared to go with an expression of sudden realization.
"All the generals listen to the order," After arranging his tactics for his two generals, Wu Jue took a deep breath and instructed the soldiers guarding the north gate around him: "Wind the crossbow machine......"
"Roaring ......" After receiving Wu Jue's order and following the roar in response, the forbidden soldier with a crossbow machine hanging from his waist immediately ......
Just a quarter of an hour before this small-scale siege was about to break out, Lu Yu, who was still learning Emei marksmanship from the old nun Xuanyi Shitai in "Lu Jiadang", suddenly received the news brought back by the blue ghost Yarotan and knew about the slaughter of Laitan Town.
In an instant, Lu Yu realized that the "Iron Harrier Army" of the Western Xia Kingdom had become angry after chasing and killing Yeluhan in the north, otherwise, they would not have used the means of slaughtering the city to cover their whereabouts.
At the same time, Lu Yu also realized that the purpose of the Western Xia "Iron Harrier Army" to slaughter the city was probably not only to vent their anger and cover up their whereabouts, but also to "make up for their mistakes".
After understanding that the enemy began to play ruthlessly, he was worried that they would slaughter Lu Yu here, and he couldn't sit still, after all, Laitan Town was about sixty miles away from Taiping Town, where he was located, and if the enemy attacked at full speed, they would be able to hit Taiping Town in an hour, which ......
After realizing the seriousness of the problem, Lu Yu first apologized to Master Xuan Yi and stopped practicing, and then he changed into his dark gray linen samurai uniform, and then, he put on his father-in-law's divine sword "Jade Handle Dragon" and an iron-tired black lacquer giant bow, and went out of the house and headed towards the place of the incident.
The purpose of Lu Yu's trip was not to fight hard with the Western Xia "Iron Harrier Army", he also understood that if he fought hard with the other party, then, with his own "combat power", he could only fight to kill more than a dozen of them at most, and then, he would be shot into a sieve by them 100%.
The real purpose of Lu Yu's trip was to use his ability of the "Five Elements Escape" Taoist technique to lure the "Iron Harrier Army" away and lead them to the deep mountains and old forests, and then he would fight guerrilla warfare with them and constantly consume them.
Lu Yu estimated that as long as he could unconsciously use guerrilla methods to "consume" hundreds of them, he would inevitably be able to scare them into "collapse", and after the "collapse", they would definitely not dare to act rashly.
Of course, Lu Yu, who is still accumulating merits and resisting the catastrophe, will not really kill people, his idea is that if he doesn't kill people, he will only beat them to serious injuries and cripples, and the rest will be handed over to the Criminal Prison Department to do.
Although Lu Yu has no internal force in his body and can't use light skills, but with the high-level blue "Wind Talisman" that he found from his senior brother Xuan Yihong on his body, his speed is not slower than that of ordinary light skills, with Lu Yu's "speed" at the moment, he will definitely be able to reach his destination within an hour.
Just when Lu Yu drove the full throttle to "drag rac", he had already handed over Wu Jue with the "Iron Harrier Army" of Western Xia, but he fell into a very embarrassing hard battle......
