Twelve miles northwest of Zhujiazhuang, there is a nameless hillside, the height is not more than a few dozen meters, the radius is only a few hundred meters, the only advantage is that the top of the slope is very flat, the trees are sparsely scattered and there are not a few, only a cluster of weeds are silently bearing the decay from green to yellow.

Although this hillside is near the official road, it can be regarded as a good resting place, but because it is not far from the flowery Zhujiazhuang, it has rarely been cared about.

It's just after noon on this day, but the hillside is not as deserted as in the past, and there is actually a group of officers and soldiers who choose to set up camp here, and it is also a rare cavalry team in the official army.

Since the establishment of the Great Song Dynasty, there has been a shortage of good horses, so although this horse team is only 500 people, it is the elite concentration of half of the Shandong garrison.

As for the reason why Zhujiazhuang also made up hundreds of horse teams at the beginning, it was because they recruited many horse thieves near Dongping Mansion, as a horse thief, if they didn't even have a horse, wouldn't they be ridiculed by their peers?

And at present, the leader of this vanguard horse team is the two regimental training envoys of Lingzhou Mansion - Shan Tinggui, the holy water general, and Wei Dingguo, the divine fire general!

On the hillside, Shan Tinggui nailed a thick wooden wedge into the soil, took the reins and tied the war horse to it, chewed his horse's head, loosened the belly belt, put a few bean cakes on the ground, and let it lick and eat by itself, and then walked to Wei Dingguo with a smile and sat down.

Seeing Wei Dingguo staring blankly at the bottom of the hillside, he didn't seem to be aware of it, so he casually folded a dog's tail grass and flicked it on Wei Dingguo's head, and said with a smile: "Old Wei, what do you want to do?" Look at you even drooling all over the place! ”

Shenhuo glanced at Wei Dingguo at him, stretched out his hand to sweep away the grass on his head, but he was not in the mood to laugh and play with him, but instead sighed and said faintly: "I don't know if our brothers can come back alive in this attack on Liao." ”

Shan Tinggui's smile also faded a little when he heard this, although the princes in the court were all gearing up to tear off a piece of fat from the Liao State in the twilight of the Western Mountain, but they, the local military attachés, knew that the slack of armaments in the Great Song Dynasty was definitely better than that of the Liao State!

Therefore, it is inevitable that the two will be apprehensive about attacking the Liao State.

"Why do you want to do so much, the sky is falling and there is a tall one on top!"

Half-loud, Shan Tinggui suddenly grinned again: "Anyway, let's go this time to fight, the real main force is the Western Army and the Forbidden Army - even if you want to rush to the front at that time, people are still afraid that you will take the credit!" ”

After a pause, he teased again: "I said Lao Wei, you're not right!" What we have to deal with now, but the demon who can summon the 'Heavenly Thunder', you old mind is on the side of the Liao Kingdom, be careful not to capsize in the gutter and break the prestige of your Divine Fire General! ”

"Snort~"

Wei Dingguo snorted, and said with disdain: "What kind of thunder is not thunder, isn't it just the exaggeration of those rural villagers?" My fire gourds haven't been blown into Zhurong in Lingzhou! What 'burning 800 miles horizontally, burning three mountains in one night', Lao Tzu himself felt blushing when he heard it! ”

Shan Tinggui laughed and stopped mentioning the matter.

In fact, like Wei Dingguo, he sneered at what 'Heavenly Thunder' and 'Megatron', and he mentioned it just now just to make fun of Wei Dingguo.

"Two adults!"

At this moment, the sentry in charge of the lookout on the east side suddenly ran over, and before the people arrived, the shout first reached the ears of Shan and Wei: "There is a group of people in front, looking at the appearance, it should be the red scarf thief under the command of Na Wuda!" ”

This is really a casual chatter!

Shan Tinggui and Wei Dingguo glanced at each other, stretched out their hands to pull the sentry who reported the news, and asked in a series of questions: "How many people are there in the red turban thief?" Is it a cavalry or a foot soldier? Did you come directly to us, or did you march along the official road and happen to pass by here? ”

"It seems that there were only a few hundred people, almost all of them, and only a few guys who looked like leaders were riding." The sentinel answered the first two questions, but could not answer the third.

But this is enough, Shan Tinggui shook him off, and while striding towards the east side of the breakthrough, he smiled at Wei Dingguo and said: "Old Wei, this group of stupid thieves is really bold, and a few hundred foot soldiers dare to find it—if the response is not timely, it is a good opportunity for our brother Dafa Li City!" ”

Wei Dingguo didn't say anything, but his face was contemptuous.

It's just that when the two of them came to the edge of the east side, when they looked down, they were both stunned - they saw that on the official road, hundreds of red turban troops had already set up a formation, facing the dirt slope in a half-moon shape, obviously to face off with the official army.

"Are these thieves crazy?" Shan Tinggui frowned and said: "The foot soldiers have suffered a loss to the cavalry, and they even dare to fight down the hillside, if we rush over condescendingly, but there is still the good fruit of these stupid thieves to eat?" ”

Wei Dingguo said: "Isn't the strong beam in the countryside so stupid? After winning a few thieves, I thought that Lao Tzu was the best in the world, but what did he know about arranging troops? ”

As he spoke, he waved behind him and shouted, "Sons, hurry up and line up!" General Ben will take you to harvest some bounty money, and spend money on the way! ”

This cavalry is a patchwork of horse teams from the state capitals of Shandong, if they encounter hard bones, they will not pass the buck to each other and hinder each other, but at the moment there are only 500 foot soldiers, and they are still dying in the battle under the gentle slope - this is a good deal sent to the door, who will push it out?!

So whether it was the soldiers and horses of Lingzhou or the soldiers of Qizhou, they all responded like thunder, and led the war horses to the east side to line up quickly, looking at the red turban troops below, as if they were selling their heads.

At this time, a big man in the red turban army formation broke out, pointing to the scolding battle of "straight lady thief" and "no egg" on the hillside.

Wei Dingguo was already hot-tempered, and he didn't take this group of red turban thieves in his eyes at all, so he turned over on his horse, put the Pu knife in front of him, and shouted: "Sons, go with me to kill this group of thieves!" ”

As he spoke, he knocked the horse's belly and rushed out like an arrow!

Behind him, hundreds of horsemen also followed with sabers and screaming.

This hillside is no more than 100 paces, and the slope is relatively gentle, which can be said to be the most suitable place for cavalry charge.

Wei Dingguo condescended and rode his horse wildly, it was really a galloping and high-spirited, and he felt that he was only a pair of wings away from flying.

Seeing that it was approaching fifty steps, but there was not even a shadow of an archer on the other side, Shenhuo Jiang became more and more disdainful in his heart, and simply stretched out his limbs, raised his sword high, and just waited for a tiger to enter the flock and kill the Quartet!

Bang ~ Bang ~ Bang ~

At this moment, there was a sudden crisp sound like popping beans at the foot of the mountain!

In the smoke of gunpowder, before Wei Dingguo could figure out what was happening, he felt that his body was suddenly empty, and then the whole person flew up like a cloud, but he didn't fly far, and then he slammed into the ground in an upside-down posture!
