Chapter 582: Mutiny (5)
In the ice and snow, a group of cavalry galloped quickly, the trees and mountains on the side of the road flashed, and the cold wind blew on the face and made people feel painful. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
After a while, the team stopped on a narrow road, flanked by steep mountain walls, dozens of feet high, towering into the clouds, and snowflakes floating in the sky, the size of goose feathers, and everyone in the cavalry was covered with a thick layer of snowflakes.
Yang Jinrong, who was at the front, turned his head and asked, "Captain Deng, is this what you are talking about?" ”
"Yes!" Deng Xiaochao nodded, stepped forward and pointed to the mountain walls on both sides with a horsewhip and said: "General Yang, please look, the mountain walls on both sides are steep, and people are almost impossible to climb, we just need to ambush the brothers at both ends of this road, and wait for He Shichang's team to escort the military salary into this road, we will block their way and retreat from the front and back, even if they plug their wings, they will not escape!" ”
Yang Jinrong carefully observed the terrain here, was very satisfied, and said to Deng Xiaochao with a smile: "The place chosen by Deng Duwei is good, and that's it!" ”
After speaking, Yang Jinrong pondered for a while, and then said to Deng Xiaochao: "Captain Deng, when you kill him later, don't hurt He Shichang's life, how can you say that he is also a general, and the relationship with this general is not bad, let's leave him alive!" ”
Deng Xiaochao sneered in his heart, hesitated on his face and said: "General Yang, since the relationship between the two of you is good, then He Shichang is very likely to recognize you, if you let him go, he will think of this scene afterwards and suspect you, do you think he will let you go?" General Yang, you can't be kind to a woman if you do big things, and you must not be soft at critical moments! Otherwise, it's too late to regret it! Besides, now not only is the Tianshan Army short of military salaries, but the Desert Army is also short of military salaries, why did Wang Dashuai only allocate military salaries to He Shichang and ignore the Desert Army? It's still different from intimacy! General Yang is only afraid that he is not as important as He Shichang in Wang Dashuai's heart, right? ”
Yang Jinrong struggled in his heart for a while, and finally relented, gritted his teeth and said fiercely: "Okay, after the fight starts, kill them all, and leave no one alive!" ”
"Got it!" Deng Xiaochao clenched his fists and agreed, and then waved to the masked knights behind him: "Everyone is divided into two, the person on the left will follow me to the exit of the sandwich road, and the person on the right will follow General Yang to the entrance of the back sandwich road, and when all the targets enter the sandwich road, they will be attacked back and forth!" Do you understand everything? ”
"No!"
The team quickly split into two, one team returning the same way and ambushing behind the cliffs on either side of the entrance to the metro, and the other behind the cliffs at the exit.
After about an hour, a contingent of more than 50 Tang cavalry men from far to near was loaded with large wooden boxes, all bound with thick hemp rope.
He Shichang walked at the front of the team on horseback with his whole body draped, whipping the war horse with a whip from time to time, turning around and shouting: "Hurry up, the one behind will follow."
A pro-soldier rode a horse to catch up with He Shichang and asked, "General, I don't know what happened to the Tianshan Army, can we stabilize the situation by pulling these copper coins in the past?" ”
Another soldier also caught up and said, "Yes, general, what if we pull these copper coins over and are robbed by the rebels?" ”
"Who dare!" He Shichang snorted coldly and said: "There was no military salary before, and those soldiers were in chaos, and now we are going back with military salaries, if they dare to mess around again, it will be a rebellion!" ”
The pro-soldier who spoke first said: "I don't know why, the little one always feels unsteady in his heart!" ”
He Shichang thought that his soldiers were scared, so he had to comfort: "Don't be afraid, as long as the army stabilizes, you will be considered a great achievement, and this general will not treat you badly!" ”
The soldiers didn't make a sound, and they sat on horseback with their heads bowed, not knowing what they were thinking.
When the team was about to enter the middle road, the soldier on the left looked at the large number of horseshoe prints on the snow, and couldn't help but wonder: "Why are there so many horseshoe prints in this field?" Looks like a big group of people should be passing by! ”
The soldier on the right smiled and said: "This is nothing strange, this road is the road to Gaochang, there are many pedestrians on the road, and it is normal to have these horseshoe prints!" ”
"There are no footprint prints, only horseshoe prints, and there are a lot of them! Who will brave the wind and snow on this snowy day? ”
"It's strange what you say, we can all brave the wind and snow to travel, don't we allow others to brave the snow to travel with 100,000 urgent things?"
The soldier on the left asked, "General, you're about to enter the middle road, and the little one will go over to explore the road first?" ”
He Shichang waved his hand and said: "Forget it, don't always be suspicious, this is a big road, there are a lot of pedestrians on the road, nothing will happen!" Let's let the sergeants behind hurry up! ”
"Yes, General!"
The wheels of the carriage creaked on the snow, and from time to time someone scolded the animals pulling the cart, and the whip crackled, and He Shichang and his party walked into the road.
"There's someone in the back!" Suddenly, a loud shout spread to the entire delivery team.
He Shichang turned his head to look, only to see that a team had appeared behind the team, and those people were all masked, holding all kinds of weapons to block the retreat and kill behind them, he was shocked, and immediately shouted: "Quick, hurry up and rush out of the mezzanine, drive-"
The horsemen and the soldiers who protected the carriage began to panic, there were only more than fifty of them, and the enemy was killing from behind, and they wanted to turn around the camp but they had no courage, so they could only rush the carriage quickly towards the exit of the road.
Just when He Shichang and the others were about to rush out of the crossing, a group of people suddenly appeared in front of them and blocked their direction.
The war horse raised its hooves and stood up, He Shichang on horseback was almost thrown off the horse, "Law-" finally appeased the war horse, He Shichang was already frightened.
"Kill-" Deng Xiaochao, who was running at the front on horseback and was masked, took out his weapon and shouted: "Kill-"
"Kill-" The knight behind him got up and shouted, and a large number of horses' hooves resounded throughout the road, and at this time, the pursuers behind had already chased after the team that was attacking He Shichang in front and back.
The frightened He Shichang couldn't escape at this time, there were cliffs on both sides, and the front and back were blocked, and there was almost no other way than to face the battle.
At the critical moment, He Shichang still aroused a trace of blood, he pulled out his horizontal knife and shouted: "Brothers, the brave wins when they meet on the narrow road, and they will fight a bloody road with me!" ”
"Kill-" The soldiers of the Tang Army who escorted the military salary also knew at this time that they could only fight to the death, and if they didn't fight, they would die! Since the other party has set up an ambush here, and he is still masked, he just doesn't want to be known, even if he surrenders, he is afraid that it will be a dead end, and if he wants to live, the only way is to fight to the death, if he can rush out, he can live, and if he can't rush out, he will die here.
The two sides soon fought together, He Shichang failed to rush out, in the case of snow on the road, the war horse could not run at speed, the front was blocked, the two sides were scuffled together, He Shichang's men and horses were blocked in the middle and could not advance or retreat, and the soldiers had no intention of fighting at all, and the casualties rose sharply.
There was no suspense about the outcome of the victory, He Shichang's people were all killed, and he himself was also cut off his horse by Deng Xiaochao and seriously injured.
Yang Jinrong jumped down on horseback, pulled off the mask and walked towards the seriously injured He Shichang with a knife, He Shichang saw that the leader of the masked man turned out to be Yang Jinrong, and pointed at Yang Jinrong in shock: "You, you, you ・・・・・・ Yang Jinrong?" Why do you want to do this? ”
"When you get to the Hades Palace, I'll ask the Hades Lord!" After Yang Jinrong finished speaking, he raised his knife and cut it off, and his head rolled to the side in a moment.
Deng Xiaochao said loudly at this time: "It's over, the brothers will leave here immediately with the carriage, take the dead brothers away, and check them in detail to see if anything has fallen, don't leave evidence to be traced!" ”
"No!"
There were corpses lying on the snow, the blood had stained the snow red, and Yang Jinrong and the others quickly drove the carriage out of the direction from which they came.
The team walked all the way for twenty or thirty miles, away from the place of battle just now, Yang Jinrong relaxed, and his mood became happy, this operation was finally successful, as long as all the money was transported back, the military salary of the desert army could be solved, and there was still a surplus, and the rest of the team also began to fall under the mask and laughed.
After walking for another thirty miles, Deng Xiaochao saw that many people in the team were a little tired, after all, they had just gone through a big battle, and they had hurried such a long way, and everyone was very tired, so he suggested to Yang Jinrong: "General Yang, I see that everyone is very tired, why don't you stop and rest for a while?" ”
Yang Jinrong looked left and right, and then put his hand on the pergola to look ahead, and saw that there was a valley a few miles ahead, just where he could take shelter from the wind and snow, so he pointed to the front and said: "Go to the valley in front to rest, you can also avoid the wind and snow, it is too cold to be blown by the wind in this wild!" ”
"That's fine!" Deng Xiaochao agreed, waved his horsewhip and said loudly: "Brothers, work hard, go to the valley in front to rest!" ”
The team soon came to the valley, Deng Xiaochao let the soldiers rest under the order of Yang Jinrong, these people are the two of them, they are all trustworthy people, and they are not so particular, everyone finds a place to rest, eat dry food and find water to drink.
At this moment, hundreds of people suddenly rushed out from the snow-covered hillside on both sides, these people were dressed in all kinds of clothes, all of them were masked, and one by one they rushed down the hillside with all kinds of weapons and shouted to kill Yang Jinrong and the others.
Yang Jinrong and others, who were resting and completely gave up their defenses, were shocked, panicked, and the ambush rushed down too fast, Yang Jinrong was scattered by a large ambush before he even had time to organize the defense, and the two sides immediately scuffled, the panicked Yang Jinrong and others were killed and retreated, and the pro-soldiers hurriedly met the battle, insufficient preparation, and their timidity was revealed, and only three percent of the combat power was played, and in a blink of an eye, Yang Jinrong's personal soldiers suffered heavy losses, and they were cut down to the ground by the ambush soldiers one by one.
Deng Xiaochao saw that the situation was not good, and immediately pulled Yang Jinrong to run to the side of the war horse, Yang Jinrong shouted: "Let go of me, Lao Tzu will fight with them!" ”
Deng Xiaochao didn't let go, and said loudly while pulling Yang Jinrong to run: "General Yang, don't be stupid, you can't take away the military salary, it's important to escape now, stay in the green mountains, don't be afraid of no firewood!" ”
"Hey-" Yang Jinrong also knew that what Deng Xiaochao said was right, and after sighing, he ran to the side of the war horse with him, turned over on the war horse, and the two immediately hit the horse and galloped forward.
After a while, Yang Jinrong's personal soldiers were completely killed, but Deng Xiaochao's personal soldiers were safe and sound, they were neither killed nor injured, and they all got up from the ground.
The leader of the ambush pulled down his mask and ordered: "Check again, see if you fake your death, do it cleanly, don't leave your tail!" ”
The person who said this was Chu Ge, he hadn't shown up since he was replaced by Yang Jinrong as the military envoy of the Great Desert Army, and no one would have thought that he would appear here. (To be continued.) )
