Chapter 68: Guillotine (continue to ask for votes and collections)
Just when Dong Li killed Lei Gong, the Yellow Turban Lux's infantry had already arrived in front of the Guillotine Ditch.
The ten-zhang wide ditch is covered with snow. If you look closely, you can see that there are some very strange condensations in the snow. However, it is not obvious, and for the Yellow Turban Lux who is eager to catch up with Lei Gong, it can basically be ignored.
Led by one of the leaders, the Yellow Turban Lux began to tentatively slide down the ravine.
There seemed to be nothing dangerous about it, and after confirming it, the leader immediately shouted loudly: "All the army go, all the army go!" ”
Five or six hundred yellow turban wrestlers slid down from the edge of the ditch one after another, and walked towards the opposite side step by step.
In the beginning, it didn't seem like anything out of the ordinary. Occasionally, a few Yellow Turban wrestlers couldn't pull out their feet when they got stuck in the snow, and the Yellow Turban Leader didn't pay attention to it. But the more you go inside, the more people fall into the snow, and the more often you go. Especially when he reached the middle of the ditch, the leader found that half of the people were incapacitated.
"What are you doing? Hurry up...... Otherwise, Lord Lei Gong will be angry, and everyone will have no good fruit to eat. ”
As he spoke, he walked up to grab a soldier, but his feet seemed to suddenly collapse, and his feet fell into a ball of softness that he couldn't step on. The leader screamed, trying to get out. But the harder I worked, the more my body sank down, and in the blink of an eye, half of my body sank into the snow in the ditch.
A very old legend flashed through the leader's mind.
According to legend, Guillotine was a place where people's heads were often chopped, and even in the distant Warring States Period, it was the place where Qi, Lu, Wei, and Yan fought. At the end of each campaign, a large number of prisoners of war were beheaded. Later, Liu Bang rebelled, and his general Han Xin once killed thousands of prisoners after a battle, and his heads filled the horizontal ditch.
During the period of Emperor Wu, it became a place of execution, and many death row prisoners lost their heads here.
Guillotine ditch, the resentment is very heavy, and those who want to wade through the ditch will be caught by the unjust ghosts in the ditch and dragged into the underworld.
Later, the locals hired the master to do it, and the bridge was built. The situation improved when the government stopped executing prisoners in this place.
The Yellow Turban Lux prides himself on being a disciple of a great sage and a good teacher, and is protected by the immortals.
When I first came to Changyi, I heard people mention this kind of thing, but it was just a joke, and I heard it.
Can ...... now
The leader felt a wave of fear and shouted, "It's the ghost door open, retreat, retreat!" ”
As he spoke, he struggled desperately outside, but the more he struggled, the faster he sank. The Yellow Turban Lux, who had not yet fallen into the ditch, also panicked. If it is a frontal enemy, they may not be afraid of the other party. But this kind of ghost and god thing can take people's hearts. Since they believe in the Tao of Taiping, they naturally stay away from ghosts and gods. If the leader didn't shout, they wouldn't be too flustered. But when this shout started, many people panicked and fell into the snow in the horizontal ditch.
On the mountain beam not far from the other side of the ditch, seven or eight horsemen appeared.
At the head were two scribes, their expressions solemn and their expressions even more calm.
Behind them, were five trolls. Armed with a bow and arrows, he quietly waited for the scribe's orders.
"Since ancient times, ghosts and gods cannot be deceived, and you know that you have offended trolls that even ghosts and gods will fear...... Now, the trolls are angry, and they will all die without a place to bury. Brother Huang, I think it's almost time to start, what do you say? ”
Huang Shao nodded and raised his hand.
Five trolls bent their bows and arrows, and the arrows were wrapped in cloth and stained with pine oil.
Tang Zhou lit the arrow, and one rocket after another roared towards the horizontal ditch. In the horizontal ditch, a lot of pine oil was poured, most of which were bought by the people of Changyi and Dongjun in the city by Tang Zhou and other places in the Tang and Zhou dynasties, and there were fifty altars.
The pine oil was poured into the groove and soon crystallized.
All it takes is a little fire, and those crystals will burn quickly and spread throughout the groove.
Looking at the Yellow Turban wrestlers who were stuck in the ditch and constantly engulfed in flames, the two scribes couldn't help but laugh.
"It's a pity that there aren't many supplies at hand, otherwise, even Changyi would have been burned!"
Huang Shao closed his eyes and listened to the wails of the Yellow Turban wrestlers. The stench of burning the human body filled the air, but he didn't seem to be aware of it. His cheeks twitched slightly: This fire will be a witness to the severance of Huang Shao and Taiping Dao.
In the distance, the sound of tearing has gradually subsided.
Huang Shao opened his eyes, "Mr. Tang, it seems that the lord's side is about to end." Let's go...... This time, I'm afraid it's hard not to alarm Zhang Jiao. The disciple died, the dojo was burned, I really want to see, what will Zhang Jiao's expression be when he knows it? ”
Tang Zhou said with a smile: "What other expressions can you have, only to be as violent as a rael!" ”
"Let's go, meet the lord!"
Huang Shao turned the horse's head, and Tang Zhou followed. The five trolls stared blankly at the flames in the ditch and shuddered.
No wonder the Lord Guild reminds us to be careful of the Central Plains people.
If these guys are ruthless, they are much more powerful than us. Six hundred people, it takes a stick of incense to kill. But these two people actually raised their hands and wiped it out. With this help in the future, the revenge of Jincheng will definitely be rewarded!
The troll turned his horse and chased after Huang Shao and the others.
It was past noon, and the sun was gradually obscured by dark clouds, and it looked like there was another wind and snow coming.
When Huang Shao and the others joined Dong Li, the battle was over. Of the two hundred Yellow Turban wrestlers, only about thirty or forty escaped. The rest of them had been reduced to corpses, and a dozen trolls were stacking corpses on top of each other on the battlefield.
Tang Zhou saw a black-faced man, who was tied up and thrown aside, unconscious.
"Lord, who is this person?"
"Oh, it's Yuan Shao's friend, I guess Yuan Shao will be very happy to see him. Take him first, and then kill him when it's really troublesome. Oh, let this head be placed on top of the corpse. This is called Lei Gong Grave! ”
More than a hundred corpses fell to the height of a person.
On the top is the head of Lei Gong, which looks very weird and makes people feel palpitations at the same time.
Dong Li ordered someone to throw Zhou Cang on a horse, and then Dian Wei came to report.
Although the opponent's cavalry was almost completely annihilated in this battle, three of their own side were killed and two were seriously wounded.
This is just the beginning!
Dong Li looked at the corpses of the three trolls who had fought in the northwest with him, and there was a sudden sadness in his heart.
He jumped off his horse and cut off three strands of hair from the three corpses, which were wrapped in cloth and wrapped in cloth.
"Tang Zhou, find someone to bury them well and make a good mark. When we have the ability in the future, we will move back to Lintao. ”
"What about the other two?"
"If you can ride a horse, you can ride a horse, if you can't ride a horse, we will take it with us. They are my brothers, and they must not be discarded! ”
The trolls who were busy couldn't help but be very moved when they heard Dong Li's words. Dian Wei was even more at a loss, and said continuously: "Lord, a lord like you, I Dian Wei has made up my mind, followed ......"
"You and my brother, presumably I am in danger one day, and you will not give up!"
"Nature, this is nature!"
Dong Li put the heads of the three corpses into his arms and turned over on his horse. But in his heart, a strangeness arose.
Have I changed?
Not discarded? I'm afraid that those two people may not be able to survive tonight!
When did I become so hypocritical, thinking about buying people's hearts everywhere...... It's just that hypocrisy is hypocrisy, and it's better than being a dead ghost with a ruined family. Sister, everything Ugly did today was for our family. Don't blame me, Ugly hasn't changed, Ugly is still the same Ugly back then, but the world is constantly changing.
He shook his head vigorously to see that the people around him had cleaned up.
Dong Li took a deep breath and raised his finger forward: "Let's go, we'll spend the night outside Shanyang County tonight, let's go!" ”
******
At dusk, the fire in the ditch was extinguished!
The blended snow and the swampy mud at the bottom of the ditch mixed together, and many charred corpses could be faintly seen floating on the surface.
Zhang Zhangba led a thousand yellow turban wrestlers, looking at the tragic situation in front of him, and his heart burned with raging anger.
That day, he went to arrest Dian Wei's family overnight, but he was a step too late. After two full days of circling around Suiyang, I didn't find the shadow of my opponent. After going back, although Li Damu didn't say anything, Zhang Zhangba always felt that Li Damu kept blaming him in his heart. Ashamed, ashamed, Zhang Zhangba couldn't bear it anymore. He wanted Li Damu to ask for his life, and then mobilized a thousand Yellow Turban wrestlers from near Qiaoxian County, and vowed to arrest the damned Dian Wei.
At the same time, Li Damu also asked for help from the parishioners in Qingdao and Yanzhou.
Three days earlier, it had been learned that the enemy had appeared near the East Gun. Zhang Zhang's eight starry nights rushed from Yuzhou to Dongjun, but he learned that the enemy had fled to Changyi. He was very happy in his heart, he knew that there were eight hundred Yellow Turban wrestlers led by his fellow brother Lei Gong in Changyi.
So he hurriedly chased after him, but he didn't expect the Changyi Dojo to become a ruin.
From the mouths of the believers who were cleaning up the dojo, it was learned that Lei Gong had caught the other party's whereabouts and tracked them down.
Zhang Zhangba followed the route of Lei Gong's pursuit non-stop. Before reaching the guillotine, he was still optimistic. In his opinion, although the other party is fierce, there are Lei Gong and his eight hundred yellow turban wrestlers, and they don't want to escape.
Who knows......
While ordering people to build a temporary bridge, he looked at the charred corpses in the ditch.
Zhang Zhangba began to feel that the situation was a little different. Judging from the scene, the other party is not just a group of reckless people, but a master next to him to give advice. Are these people really just Jianghu rangers who avenge Liu Wang, the mountain village husband?
If not, who would it be?
Just when Zhang Zhangba was pondering, the simple pontoon bridge was also built.
With the men and horses across the guillotine ditch, Zhang Zhangba did not dare to pursue desperately this time. Be cautious along the way, after climbing over a mountain beam. He was stunned! The Jingguan that fell from the corpse without data is in the shape of a pyramid. How tall is one person, and at the top, there is his senior brother, the head of Lei Gong. In the night, this Beijing view is breathtaking, making everyone silent.
"Senior brother!"
Zhang Zhangba let out a sad cry and jumped off the horse.
He was sad and became calmer. Kill 200 of your own well-trained cavalry in one fell swoop...... You must know that these cavalry are not comparable to those county soldiers in Suiyang County. Is this something that a dozen people can do? No way!
To chase, or not to chase?
Zhang Zhangba was hesitant. At this time, someone ran in front of Zhang Zhangba with a surviving yellow turban wrestler.
From the mouth of the yellow turban wrestler, Zhang Zhangba got the answer.
A dozen people, but absolutely not twenty people. At the head were two ugly ghosts, one of whom was armed with a double hammer, and the killing method was fierce, like a fierce god. Lei Gong died in the hands of that person, that's right, it was Dian Wei and his party.
There are only a dozen people, actually, actually......
This is definitely a shame for the arrogant Zhang Zhangba, a deep shame.
At the same time, he no longer has to worry about the other party's reinforcements.
All the circumstances have shown that the opponent is those dozen people, and it is remarkable to double it again, thirty people!
Even if Na Dian Wei and that unknown villain are covered in iron, how many nails can they twist?
Zhang Zhangba roared angrily: "Chase, chase me...... If you don't catch those people, it will be difficult to eliminate the hatred in my heart, and pursue! ”
At the sound of rumbling horses' hooves, snowflakes fell.
