Chapter 305: Drawing Salary from the Bottom of the Cauldron
"Join the army, we can't resist!" The two soldiers on the left also shouted. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
At this time, Li Yanqing saw a Western Xia soldier swing a knife and slash at the back of his subordinate's neck, he didn't have time to draw the bow, with a wave of his hand, a dagger shot out, hitting the head of the Western Xia soldier, and the knife fell to the ground.
"Retreat!"
Li Yanqing shouted, he put a bow on his back, held a shield in one hand, and at the same time kept shooting flying knives, killing five or six people in a row, creating an opportunity for two of his subordinates to retreat, and two of his subordinates rushed into the woods.
Li Yanqing was murderous, he shot the enemy with a flying knife while retreating, and shot six more people in the blink of an eye, each of which was shot to the head, killing with one knife.
Therefore, the Western Xia soldiers were all frightened by Li Yanqing's bloody methods, and they all raised their shields and shouted to kill, but no one dared to rush forward, watching the other party calmly retreat into the woods.
This pine forest covers an area of about fifty acres, like a tuft of hair on a hill, and the sky covered by a huge canopy makes the forest extremely dark. ”
Li Yanqing responded angrily: "I've disappointed you, live well." ”
"His grandmother's! I'm afraid you'll die. ”
Wang Gui rushed over with a few soldiers, Li Yanqing only smelled a strong bloody breath, and was startled, "Are you injured?" ”
"I took a few stabs, but it wasn't a big problem, the leather armor was very strong, and we killed about twenty people and two brothers."
"We also suffered two casualties on our side."
"So what's next? Ignition? Wang Gui said eagerly.
Li Yanqing gathered the five soldiers together and asked, "Can you still have the physical strength to support it?" ”
The five soldiers nodded, "It's okay!" ”
Li Yanqing smiled and said: "Now we have a chance to counterattack the enemy army, I estimate that there are not many enemy troops guarding the horses at the foot of the mountain, so we simply went to the east and robbed their horses." ”
Everyone's eyes lit up, this was a bold and feasible plan, Wang Gui slapped his fist and said excitedly: "Good way, fuck it!" ”
"First set fire to the pine forest, and then we will go down the mountain from the south, and we will no longer have spears and armor, but only bows and arrows, and we will try to travel as lightly as possible, and then turn back and take the armor and weapons of the guards."
They took off their armor, threw away their spears, and lit the pine needles with flint and fire sickles, which were so dry that the thick pine needles spread like straw as soon as they were lit.
Li Yanqing was suddenly startled and shouted to everyone: "Run!" ”
Everyone turned around and ran, running wildly towards the southern hillside, the fire quickly chased behind them, only for a moment, the fire in the pine forest was soaring, the smoke was billowing out, and dozens of Western Xia soldiers who had just entered the pine forest were so frightened that they hurriedly fled.
Everyone ran to the edge of the cliff, there was no road below, but Li Yanqing had prepared in advance, although a lot of armor was not needed, but he left the ribbon that tied the leather armor, and kneaded them into a long rope, which played a role at this time.
They fastened a long rope to a large tree and quickly climbed downward, and in a short time the seven men climbed down the hill and ran to the east of the hill with their legs......
The pine forest on the top of the mountain is in flames, the flames are more than 20 zhang in the air, the smoke is billowing out, straight to the sky, the fire can be seen dozens of miles away, on the third layer of the city head of the Wulong Village, the soldiers point to the fire in the distance and talk about it.
Zhizhai Sun Qing stood in front of the battlements with his hands in his hands, his eyes were very serious, he recognized that the firelight was halfway to Shenquan Village, it couldn't be Li joining the army and what happened to them, right?
Li Yanqing's two practitioners, Yan Jiuling and Yang Huai, both walked out of the room, looking at the fire in the distance, Yan Jiuling said in horror: "Could this be Li joining the army and their ......?"
Yang Huai snorted, looked at him coldly and said: "Yan Zhi, stepping on two boats will never end well, and now, do you have a way back?" ”
Yan Jiuling didn't dare to say anything, he silently looked at the fire in the distance, his eyes were full of guilt and remorse.
Yang Huai sneered, secretly proud in his heart, in this way, the position of the chief to join the army belongs to him.
At this time, a soldier ran up to the three cities and shouted: "Zhizhai, something has happened!" ”
"What's going on?" Sun Qing stepped forward and asked urgently.
A soldier was brought up, he was so tired that he almost collapsed, knelt down and cried: "Li Senjun was ambushed by the Western Xia army, begging Zhizhai to come to the rescue!" ”
Sun Qing was also anxious, grabbed him and asked, "Let's be clear, how many Western Xia people are there, how is Li joining the army now?" ”
"There are about two hundred Western Xia cavalry, and Li joined the army when he left, but now I don't know."
Sun Qing was taken aback, there were actually two hundred Western Xia cavalry, this was not an ordinary Western Xia spy! He immediately realized the seriousness of the problem, once Li Yanqing was arrested, many secrets of the Northwest Army would be leaked, and he immediately ordered: "The first battalion to the fourth battalion are immediately assembled and ready to attack!" ”
Liu Hongliang, the deputy governor of the village, hurriedly stepped forward and said: "Could it be a trap for the Western Xia army, luring us out of the village and ambushing us halfway?" ”
Sun Qing said coldly: "This is the Song Realm, where are there so many Xixia people!" ”
Having said that, Sun Qing is still not at ease, although this is the Song realm, but after all, it is not the east bank of the Yellow River, the Western Xia army and the Song army in this area have been fighting for many years, it is said that the Western Xia army cannot cross the border to kill, but two hundred Western Xia cavalry didn't appear the same?
He also instructed Liu Hongliang, "I will lead the army to the rescue, you can implement a first-level alert, don't be careless!" ”
"Obey the order!"
At this time, the two thousand soldiers had been assembled, Sun Qing turned over his horse, rushed out of the walled gate, and led the two thousand soldiers to run towards the place where the fire was ignited.
.........
In the easternmost part of the hills, where Li Yanqing was first attacked at noon, fifty war horses were tied to several large trees, and five Western Xia soldiers who were in charge of guarding the horses gathered together, pointing to the fire on the mountain and talking about it.
Just behind a big rock more than 20 steps away, Li Yanqing, Wang Gui and five soldiers were close to the mountain, Li Yanqing observed for a moment, determined that there were only five soldiers, and then smiled at Wang Gui in a low voice: "Let's divide one point, I will deal with three people, and you will deal with two, how about it?" ”
Wang Gui pouted, "You can just kill them alone, why do you have to give them to me." ”
"Credit! I'm going to give you all the credit for killing the Western Xia soldiers, don't you contribute? ”
Wang Gui's eyes lit up, "What you said is true?" ”
Li Yanqing spread his hands, "I am a civil official from Jinshi, and I have no power to restrain the chicken, if it weren't for the king's desperate killing of the enemy, would I have survived until now?" ”
"you!"
Wang Gui stabbed Li Yanqing with his elbow, and he looked back at the five soldiers, two of whom were Li Yanqing's sergeants, and the three of them were his own subordinates, so they should be able to handle it.
"Then we said okay, you kid is not allowed to go back."
"When did I deceive your Heavenly King?"
Wang Gui suddenly remembered what happened when he was a child, and a warm smile appeared on his face, he patted Li Yanqing on the shoulder, "You do the back three, and I'll do the front two." ”
"How do you do that?"
Wang Gui didn't speak, he pulled out an arrow, suddenly screamed, stumbled two steps, planted on the ground, the arrow in his hand stood up, and from a distance, it looked like an arrow had pierced the back of the neck.
The five Western Xia soldiers were startled, they saw for a long time, and saw that one person was hit by an arrow and fell to the ground, the five looked at each other, one of the leaders whispered a few words, and the two soldiers drew their swords and slowly approached Wang Gui.
Li Yanqing secretly admired this kid for being accurate, and sure enough, the two of them stepped forward, he gently pulled out three daggers, and waited for Wang Gui's blow.
Two soldiers approached Wang Gui, one of the soldiers stretched out his leg and kicked the corpse on the ground, at this time, a soldier suddenly found that the arrow did not hit the neck, but was inserted into the ground next to the neck, and couldn't help but be surprised, at this moment, Wang Gui's war knife swung violently, a soldier's lower leg was cut off, and he fell to the ground with a scream, Wang Gui didn't care about him, he roared and pounced, knocking down another Western Xia soldier, and the war knife pierced the opponent's chest.
At the same time, Li Yanqing also shot, and three flying knives shot out in an instant, and the three soldiers who were panicked fell to the ground one after another.
Wang Gui pulled out his war knife and hacked the soldier with the broken leg to death with a fierce knife, and the other five Song soldiers did not lag behind, galloping over to untie the reins of the war horse, Li Yanqing put three pots of arrows on the horse's back, turned over and rode a majestic war horse.
At this moment, there was a roar on the top of the mountain, and when Li Yanqing turned around, he saw dozens of Western Xia soldiers running along the mountain beam, it turned out that they were also worried about the safety of the horses, and hurried back, but they were one step slower than Li Yanqing and them.
"Let's go!"
Everyone got on their horses one after another, driving dozens of war horses to the east, and the Western Xia soldiers desperately chased after them, but Li Yanqing shot five or six people in a row, they no longer dared to run, and watched the large group of war horses disappear into the night.
