The next day, Gu Siduo went straight to Wan Hong and whispered the matter. Wan Hong was really a little vigilant, shook his head and said, "General Bone, you are going to accompany your wife to worship your ancestors tomorrow, Wan has nothing to say." But I was puzzled to take 800 people with me. Isn't this a bit out of place? …… It's not that Wan is unreasonable, it's really a heavy burden, and I can't help but be careless. The enemy's heart will not die, in case something goes wrong, how do you tell me to communicate with the master? ”

Gu Siduo was a little embarrassed, so he had to tell the truth timidly. He laughed, and said that our mother-in-law is thin-skinned and good-looking, and she was bullied and embarrassed by the neighbors in the past, but now she just wants to go back to show off her power and vent her anger. Women! It's just a little careful, I played a package ticket with her again, and I hope Brother Wan will understand. At the end, Gu Siduo patted his chest and said, if the transfer of troops is not more than a thousand, it is not a violation, and it will not embarrass your brother. And I will go out of the city tomorrow morning and return at dusk, I will never make a mistake, and in the future, in front of the lord, I will say more good things about my brother when I have time.

Wan Hong was entangled by him, although he still had doubts, he had to sigh and acquiesce, and repeatedly stated that this time the war horses could only take away a maximum of fifty, and the officers above the team owner were not allowed to be transferred out of the city. He secretly slandered in his heart, how could Gao Yue find him some unreliable partners.

After breakfast on the third day, Gu Siduo and Xue Shu led 800 soldiers out of the city like a moon. Wan Hong was at the head of the city, looking at the back of Gu Siduo who was getting farther and farther away, and couldn't help frowning, thoughtful.

Let's say that Gu Siduo came out of the city, and it was a rare comfort to take a look along the way. On the contrary, Xue Shu seemed to be a little impatient, and kept urging him to speed up. Seeing that he wanted to return to his hometown in such a hurry, Gu Siduo was secretly amused, so he said yes and ordered the team to speed up.

After a while, the sun is already rising. Gu Siduo was still talking and laughing, and he was guided by Xue Shu's command. This time she raised her eyes and looked around, and said a little strangely: "Xue Niang, I also know the way to Shawa Township, it doesn't seem to be like this?" ”

Xue Shu sat in front of him, looked back and smiled, and said, "I know." This road is a small road, and it also leads to Shawa Township, and the reason why I don't go up the official road is precisely to enter the village by surprise and catch them off guard, so that I can see those frightened faces. ”

"Also, go into the village!"

Gu Siduo smiled secretly, this was almost a pretending scene, and it was so serious, the woman was more serious, and she was really stubborn.

"Huh? Just now, your brother Xiaogen is still by his side, why haven't you seen it now? ”

"Oh, it's awkward that he keeps sticking to us, I asked him to go to Shawa Township in advance, and there is also a reception. You look around, and you notice a lot. ”

Gu Siduo nodded, relieved, and didn't ask any more. Anyway, no matter how he goes, he should come out today to accompany his mother-in-law to relax.

After walking for a while, the sky gradually turned cloudy. The wind in the first month is still very face-cutting, and the head is blowing, which is very embarrassing. Gu Siduo led the army and entered a valley. Everyone looked up and looked around, this valley was winding, the grass on both sides was deep and dense, and in many places there were steep cliffs, it was simply two high stone walls sandwiched by a narrow passage, and it was full of fog and darkness.

"Come on, take a detailed look around, and the whole army will stop marching first!"

After all, he is a person who has been fighting for a long time, and when he entered this natural and dangerous place, Gu Siduo couldn't help but be vigilant immediately, and stopped his horse as he walked, and changed his previous relaxed expression to some solemnity, and commanded his subordinates loudly.

"Wait a minute."

Xue Shu in front of her twisted her body uneasily, leaned close to Gu Siduo and whispered: "Husband, concubine, I want to solve it, the grass on the hillside over there is relatively deep, I will go over first, and when I come, you will make someone investigate." ”

Gu Siduo temporarily stopped the actions of his subordinates, so that everyone stood by and was not allowed to move. He jumped off the horse, helped Xue Shu down again, and said with concern: "Do you want me to accompany you over?" ”

Xue Shu blushed and said, "Oops...... So many people are watching, panicked, don't follow, I'll come when I go, you tell everyone not to walk around. ”

Gu Siduo laughed, then didn't move, and watched Xue Shu trot up the hill, bent down behind the unkempt grass and trees, and disappeared.

Everyone did not dare to look at it, and hurriedly looked away to avoid it. Gu Siduo stretched, patted his neck, yawned loudly, and lazy tears welled up in his eyes. The voice echoed for a long time, and the valley became more and more secluded and gloomy.

A pro-soldier stepped forward and said, "General! Supposedly, your voice should have startled many birds at once. But after half an hour's effort, I haven't even seen a single bird, and the valley is too quiet, could there be something wrong? ”

Gu Siduo chuckled in his heart, rubbed his eyes, and glared, "Won't it?" It's only thirty or fifty miles away from Xinxing, where will there be enemies? Besides, we are out of the city temporarily, except for our own people, who knows our whereabouts? You don't make a fuss. ”

Having said that, Gu Siduo became more and more uneasy. He then thought that it was convenient for Xue Shu to go, how could he not have returned until now, even if he was relieved, it should be almost the same.

"Continue to stand by and be on guard, I'll go over and take a look."

Gu Siduo thought about it, after all, he couldn't hold it back, and asked his subordinates not to act rashly, so he took a step and walked to the back of the small slope where Xue Shu was hiding.

No one answered him. Gu Siduo walked in three steps and two steps, and turned around to see that there was indeed a trace of a weed being subdued behind the slope, but Xue Shu was nowhere to be found.

Gu Siduo looked around in amazement, and his eyes were full of barren trees and strange stones, where was the half-shadow of Xueshu. He was confused and a little anxious, and immediately shouted: "Snow Lady, Snow Lady? Snow ......"

A thud of the drum interrupted his shouting. Then, the mountain walls on both sides suddenly erupted with earth-shaking shouts and killings, and then many boulders and rough logs rolled down with a bang, and with the speed of a thunderous galloping horse, they brought up scattered stones that fell all the way like a waterfall, and rushed down violently.

"Ahh My leg! ”

"Lao Zhao, how are you? Hold on! ”

"Oh no! The deputy of the Wang team was also stoned to death! ”

Eight hundred Longxi soldiers were hit by the countless stones and trees, and they were caught off guard, and a large number of people were killed and injured on the spot. The rest of the enemy attacked from somewhere, and because the mountain road was narrow, they were even more chaotic and huddled together, writhing like a wounded python. The sound of footsteps, heavy wheezing, the screams of people and the neighing of horses immediately boiled the valley to the sky.

Gu Siduo's souls are all rising, Xueshu here is still alive and dead, and his subordinates over there have already suffered heavy casualties. As soon as he gritted his teeth, he still put the overall situation first, immediately turned his head and rushed over, pulled out his saber and roared to ask the soldiers to form a circle formation first, and stabilize the formation with a circular defensive momentum.

The soldiers swooped up, knocking Gu Siduo to the ground, dodging a whistling log. The soldiers cried out in their ears: "Many of the brothers have died...... It's too late to form a general! Hurry up and get out of the valley! ”

At this time, countless crossbows had already swept down like a torrential rain, and the outermost Longxi soldiers who could not dodge screamed that there were many casualties, and even Gu Siduo's shoulder was also hit by a first-class arrow. The severe pain made his mind clear up a little, knowing that if there was any more hesitation, then everyone would have to explain it all here immediately. Gu Siduo bit his back molars so hard that he couldn't get rid of them, straightened up suddenly, and roared: "Ben will be here!" Don't panic, everyone rush out with me! ”

In the chaos of the sudden ambush attack, the main general is alive, which is to give the soldiers who are at a loss for what to do, eat a reassuring pill, the so-called snake has no head, the bird has no wings, and an army loses its main general, most of which is a situation of rapid collapse and even the rout of the whole army. The soldiers who were in a panic at the moment, seeing that Gu Siduo came out to command, immediately shouted as hard as they could in response, and everyone bent down to speed up their pace, while trying their best to avoid the arrows and stones that rushed in front of them at any time, while staggering back and forth.

Fortunately, the entrance to the valley was not blocked for some reason, Gu Siduo endured the pain, and rushed out easily with the remnants of the defeated army. He lifted his frightened eyes and glanced at them, and saw that at most half of the survivors who had escaped with him were left. Although it was like a loss, more than half of it was lost inexplicably, and he didn't know who the enemy army was who was sneaking up, but he heard the shouts of killing in the valley behind him, and countless powerful footsteps chased after him and seemed to be getting closer and closer, as if stepping on his heart, Gu Siduo was unable to return to the army and fight, so he had to retreat wildly with the remnants of the army to Xinxing City.
