Chapter 465: The Fisherman Profits
The group of people who followed Wang Guozhong rushed into Prime Minister Zuo's mansion in a daze, and in the end, let Wang Guozhong induce Wang Er and his cronies to kill him, and now they are already on Wang Guozhong's thief ship. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
If they are given a little time, they may figure out what's at stake and switch sides or run away.
But at this moment, seeing the famous "armor-piercing cone" Wei Daheng leading his subordinates, shouting the slogan of revenge for Wang Er, these people didn't have time to think about it so much, followed the shouts of Wang Guozhong and Zhang Liwei, and also rose up and fought for their own survival!
It didn't take long for the two sides to finally kill together.
Although Wei Daheng's subordinates were numerous, almost twice as many as those on Wang Guozhong and Zhang Liwei's side, his subordinates had basically not stopped since midnight until now.
In the first half of the night, they were packing up and preparing to set off the next morning, and as soon as they packed up their things and settled down, they received orders from King Hengtian and Prime Minister Zuo, asking them to lead the army to move to Rolling Rabbit Ridge.
In the middle of the night, with torches, I drove so far up the mountain road, just arrived at Rolling Rabbit Ridge, and not long after camping, I found that Shennanyu was on fire, and under the order of Wei Daheng, I returned again, and I rushed back with torches and equipment.
In this period of more than an hour, Wei Daheng took thousands of men and horses under his command to and from the center of Rolling Rabbit Ridge and Shennanyu, and all the legs under his command were thin.
At this time, with a roar from Wei Daheng, it was a sprint more than a mile away, and when they came to the troops led by Wang Guozhong, they were already sleepy and lacked horses, and they didn't have much strength left.
Therefore, although Wei Tycoon seems to be outnumbered, he does not have much combat power to speak of, and a considerable number of his men and horses are still unclear about the current situation.
They were all allies before!
And many of them are still the personal soldiers in front of the tent that Wang Jiayin, the king of Hengtian, has always relied on, although the shouting and killing are loud, but there are still a few who really contribute.
In this way, the two groups of people collided together, and Wei Daheng, who thought that he could win quickly, was a little dumbfounded, and after more than half an hour of melee, his more than 4,000 people actually fought with about 2,000 people on the other side into a stalemate scene.
And as groups of people and horses continued to arrive in the direction of Hengtian Wangfu, Wei Daheng gradually found that his numerical advantage on his side was constantly losing, so the more he fought, the more anxious he became, and the voice of peace continued: "Brothers, give it to me!" Zuo Cheng treats us well! We're going to avenge him! ”
However, the sound of his shouting order could only make more of the guards of the Hengtian Palace, who were outside the melee before, join the battle group.
This melee in Shennanyu finally evolved into a melee between the men and horses under the command of Wang Jiayin, the king of Hengtian, and the men and horses under the command of Zuo Cheng and the military advisor Wang Er.
And Wang Guozhong and Zhang Liwei also kept shouting under the protection of a large number of subordinates: "Zuo Prime Minister Wang Er plotted to kill the king and plotted against him, and the armor-breaking cone Wei tycoon made a rebellion for the tiger!" Kill them and get a reward! ”
With the addition of the Hengtian King's personal guards around Yunfeng Temple, the numerical advantage of Wei Daheng's men and horses became smaller and smaller as time continued, and when a large number of people and horses appeared again in the direction of Rolling Rabbit Ridge, this advantage would not exist at all.
"Eight King Kongs" Zhang Cunmeng is the henchman of Wang Jiayin, the king of Hengtian, and he was originally dissatisfied with Wang Er, the left prime minister and military advisor who came later, so he and Wang Er's Baishui people who defected to Wang Jiayin were quite eye-catching.
At this time, Zhang Cunmeng heard the scolding between Wei Daheng, Wang Guozhong, and Zhang Liwei from a distance, and thought that he understood the basic situation, and concluded that it was Wang Er, the prime minister of Zuo, who saw that he led the army to reinforce the leader, and had a different heart for the Hengtian King and wanted to stand on his own.
Filled with righteous indignation at the moment, and without asking about the situation, Zhang Cunmeng led his men and horses to rush into the battle group, and shouted an order that made Wang Guozhong and Zhang Liwei very reassuring:
"The king treats him well, but he plots against him, and the brothers kill him!
"It's time to serve the King!"
This is really an unclear situation, and it is definitely going to kill people!
At this time, the light of day has long passed the ugly time, and the thief army on Toudaoling will soon usher in its own end with the departure of the main force led by the leader of the town "Eight King Kongs" Zhang Cunmeng.
After Lu Xiangsheng asked Lu Yuanding to bombard for half an hour, he finally sent the vanguard of the tentative attack, and the generals who led the troops were Li Bei and Chen Tan, who led the selection of the front to attack the northern peak of Shimen Pass.
Lu Xiangsheng, who originally thought that he would be stubbornly resisted, sent Li Bei and Chen Tan's men and horses not long after, and saw the light of torches waving left and right repeatedly on the Toudao Ridge above the watchtower.
This is a pre-agreed signal.
As long as Li Bei or Chen Tan's men and horses attacked Toudaoling, they would report to the official army camp not far from the bottom of Toudaoling in this way.
When Lu Xiangsheng saw the firelight, he was naturally surprised and delighted, and immediately went down to the watchtower, and ordered Lu Xiangguan and Liu Guoneng to lead the main force of the official army out of the camp with him, light torches, and march quickly towards Toudaoling.
It is said that Li Bei and Chen Tan's department, one with the musket team of the mining camp that had not yet been ordered to be transferred to the west camp of the town at this time, and the other with the elite sword and shield hand of the Tianxiong battalion, rushed to Toudaoling with only one charge.
In the night, Li Bei's troops touched the bottom of the Toudao Ridge, only to be discovered by the panicked defenders, and then Li Bei decisively took his musket team and braved the sparse arrow rain of the thief army to charge, but only used a round of musket salvo to kill the leader of the thief army who tried to command the blockade in the chaos.
Then, immediately afterwards, the remaining brigade of thieves knelt in the middle of the fortified camp and shouted surrender.
Toudaoling was successfully taken in this way, and it was so smooth that it was so successful that everyone expected that Chen Tan's men and horses didn't have time to make a move.
After taking the first ridge, the main force of the official army led by Lu Xiangsheng soon came to the bottom of the Rolling Rabbit Ridge, and was relied on by Wang Jiayin and Wang Er's Shennanyu thieves as the dangerous Rolling Rabbit Ridge, at this time there was no defense of the thief army at all, and the only thing that troubled the advance of thousands of officers and troops was that in addition to the steep slopes of the Rolling Rabbit Ridge, there was darkness before dawn.
However, when the officers and soldiers of the brigade poured to the foot of the Rolling Rabbit Ridge in an endless stream, it was quiet on the Rolling Rabbit Ridge, and there was neither a loud alarm nor a rain of arrows.
Chen Tan, who had asked for the post of striker but had never made any contributions, took the initiative to ask for help again, served as the vanguard of the attack, and led the sword and shield men of the Tianxiong Battalion with high morale under his command, and ran all the way to the Rolling Rabbit Ridge, which was still very smooth, and did not encounter resistance from a single soldier.
Seeing this, Lu Xiangsheng was overjoyed, and immediately ordered the main force of the official army to climb the Rolling Rabbit Ridge in turn, and after he took the rear team of people and horses to the Rolling Rabbit Ridge, he found that the entire Shennanyu was already a big mess, and the two buildings of no small scale were burning in the fire, and under the light of the fire, it was vaguely visible that there were a large number of people and horses fighting together, and the number of people was afraid that there were not tens of thousands.
The generals under his command were happily talking about the spectacle in front of them, and Lu Xiangsheng knew in his heart that it must be Zhang Liwei's success in recruiting Wang Guozhong and creating such chaos in Shennanyu, and he was also very happy in his heart at the moment.
When the generals saw Lu Xiang ascending to the ridge, they all hurriedly came over to pay respects, and asked to be the vanguard, rushed down the Rolling Rabbit Ridge, rushed into Shennanyu, and killed the thieves and soldiers who were fighting in front of them.
Only Liu Guo was silent, and sighed in his heart: "What is the snipe and clam competing for the benefit of the fisherman, what is the appearance in front of you!" ”
Liu Guoneng sighed in his heart and secretly rejoiced.
At this moment, Lu Xiangsheng, who had fully realized the power of Chongzhen's musket, did not hesitate to choose the musket team of Li Bei's mine battalion as the vanguard of the army, and then supplemented by the spear battalion of the Lu Xiangguan Institute as the backing, and set off first.
Regarding the fact that Rolling Rabbit Ridge changed hands quietly, no one on both sides of Shennanyuli who was still fighting hard had time to take care of it, and it was not until the musket team of Li Bei's department and the spear battalion of Lu Xiangguan appeared on the hillside about a mile away from Niangniang Temple that the sharp-eyed thief army screamed: "Who is that?" That's the official army?! ”
As such screams continued to appear, and finally converged into a trend, the "Eight King Kongs" Zhang Cunmeng and the "Armor-Breaking Cone" Wei Daheng, who were immersed in the battle, suddenly discovered that another huge team had appeared on the periphery of the huge battle group.
"Officers and soldiers!? That's the official army! ”
