That Tongling is located in the north of Anqing ten miles, is a mountain range that stretches from north to south but fifteen miles, if you want to go directly to Anqing City, there is a strange way left and right, but the detour is quite far, and you want to take away more than ten miles of paths.

Therefore, under normal circumstances, it is a sheep intestine mountain road on the ridge first, and this mountain road has almost ten miles from north to south are walking according to the mountain, when it is about to go out of Tongling, it will enter a valley with a big belly and a small mouth, which is called the gourd mouth by the locals, the whole mountain belly is five miles long from north to south, the widest part of the east and west is about one mile, and the narrowest is about ten steps.

As for why the official cavalry was blocked in the mouth of the gourd, and the whole team of 3,000 people was blocked, Huang Jie really didn't want to bother to study, after leaving Meilin Village first, he followed Sun Li a few steps slower, to say that he still has self-knowledge in the march to fight, of course, he will not overstep his authority, and let Sun Li command.

The team that went out this time, although the slowest speed was a mule cart, but everyone had mules and horses to walk, and the speed was naturally dissatisfied, and it took almost half an hour to come to the edge of the mountain road less than two miles away from the exit of Hulukou, and immediately Sun Li assigned Di Hao, Wang Tietou and Ren Sanniang to lead more than 100 minions disguised as people, and took the torches and oil cans, grease and other things to go over the mountain to the ambush, and led Huang Jie, Zhu Gao and Liu Qi by themselves, The Japanese soldiers who led more than 100 horsemen on mules slowly touched the direction of the pass of the gourd.

There was also the white official, who led the coachmen to turn around the mule cart with the hot food first, and after opening it for a while, if there was an accident, they would ask the coachmen to set up the cart and flee back to Meilin Village first.

The two groups went their separate ways. Soon they arrived at the predetermined location, and Di Hao's situation was not mentioned for the time being. It was only said that Sun Li led everyone to stop at a place close to the pass without falling half a mile, and was about to dismount the Japanese army...... It should be said that he got off the mule. Feed the mules with the forage that had been prepared long ago, in order to keep the mules quiet.

Then, he asked Zhu Gao to stay behind to respond, and he led Huang Jie and Liu Qi to walk forward to visit, and the three of them took advantage of the moonlight to touch into the sparse forest on the side of the mountain road, and when they were still more than 100 steps away, they saw the raging fire light from the pass, and the shouting and scolding one after another.

After getting closer, I saw the end of the pass. There was a wall of fire that was five or six zhang wide, completely blocking the exit of the mountain road, and some people wearing the color and style of the Song military uniforms were busy cutting down the trees around the mountain road, and they were constantly adding firewood to the fire.

Sun Li took Huang Jie and Liu Qi and walked a few steps forward, then hid under a low tree, covered his mouth with his hand and made a cooing birdsong, and then listened to the response of the top of the tree. Xiang Li said: "Head Sun, the thieves set fire to seal the road half an hour ago, and it looks like they are about to escape." ”

Sun Li's current identity is naturally the head of the Huangzhou Waterway Transfer Yamen. He looked at the mountain road and frowned, "You set the fire half an hour ago?" Is there any movement of the officers and troops in the mouth of the gourd? ”

The man saw that the color of the suit should be a minion from the Chashan Branch, and when he saw him, he shook his head and said, "I shot a few arrows earlier." Now they are just scolding, and they also expected that the thieves were going to escape. ”

Liu Qi looked at the huge fire at the pass. Looking back, he smiled: "Those stone-breaking troops are not stupid, they keep adding firewood like this." When the ground was hot, they withdrew from the fire when they were gone, and there was no hour and time when the ground was cold, and the men and horses could not walk. ”

When Huang Jie heard this, he didn't know what he thought of and sneered, so Liu Qi asked, "Huang Da Xiucai, what are you laughing at?" Could it be that I'm not right? ”

Huang Jie couldn't help laughing, covered his mouth and laughed so much that he couldn't breathe, and then said, "Yes, yes!" You're right, I laughed because I thought of a joke, isn't there 3,000 people in the mouth of the gourd? If you pee on the head of the fire, can't you put out the fire? ”

Sun Li, Liu Qi and the minions listened, at first they were inexplicable, and then they each made up the scene of the 3,000 people lining up to pee on the fire, and naturally they were all as unbearable as Huang Jie, holding their stomachs and laughing so much that they couldn't breathe.

Liu Qi smiled and leaned on the tree, pointed at Huang Jie and said, "What a talent!" Can you think of such a sour solution? Hey, hey, hey! Laugh at me! ”

After all, Sun Li is old, so naturally he will not behave like Liu Qi, but he also pursed his lips and smiled: "Actually, if you think about it, it is also a good way." ”

At this time, they heard the sound of clothes not far away, and the four of them were immediately on alert, and when the sound reached more than ten steps, they also made a cooing sound, and Sun Li also called him over. Seeing that Qingfu was also a minion of Chashan, he listened to him: "The three leaders want me to transfer the news, and they are all ready, just waiting for the banner of the head of the Sun Sect to launch." ”

Sun Li said hello, and also untied the horn bow from his body, and after taking out several arrows and inserting them on the ground, he said to Liu Qi: "Liu Qi listens to the order!" Quickly went to lead the whole team of the Japanese army, and when he heard the three rings, he waved his army to kill, and if there was a mistake, the military law would deal with it! ”

Liu Qi hurriedly knelt on his knees, and replied with a military salute and a fist: "Liu Qi has an order!" ”

After speaking, he turned around and left, but then Sun Li looked at Huang Jie and said, "Huang Jie listens to the order!" If you have my order, you are not allowed to rush forward and kill! ”

Huang Jie was stunned when he heard this, and saw Sun Li's eyes burning, staring at him, and he didn't dare to blow up for a while, who told him to give up the command of this time to Sun Li early in the morning, so he could only learn from Liu Qi, and replied with a military salute: "Huang Jie has an order!" ”

Seeing that Huang Jie was obediently restrained, Sun Li nodded with satisfaction, and then he said to the two minions: "You two will also follow by the side, just give orders at any time." ”

The two minions naturally had no objections, Sun Li grabbed the two ringing arrows in his hand, got up and opened the bow into a full moon, and heard the two terrible and piercing chirps of "Dysprosium" suddenly pierced the night sky, instantly covering up the crackling sound of the flames and the shouting and scolding on both sides.

Immediately afterwards, I saw a lot of fires on both sides of the mountain road about fifty or sixty steps south of the pass, followed by the earth-shattering shouts of killing, and I saw all kinds of sparks with sparks constantly being thrown down to the side of the mountain road, quickly illuminating the road.

The leader of the Broken Stone Army thought that he was panicked, and saw that the thieves who were adding firewood to the fire gathered in a panic, so there were thieves with shields who randomly formed a loose shield wall, and those with bows also shot arrows on both sides of the mountain road, and after a stalemate of about 100 breaths, they saw that there were more and more flinching objects thrown on both sides of the mountain road, and the original ones that were thrown began to ignite the grass and trees on the side of the road.

Sun Li stared at it, the three ringing arrows in his hand were almost pinched out by him, and when the stone-breaking army and thieves finally stepped out of the place about one hundred and fifty steps away from the fire at the pass, they also opened their bows and shot the three ringing arrows into the sky!
