Colorful fireworks burst into the night sky. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
On the silent mountain road, there were suddenly shouts of killing. From Heishi to Heishiguan, you must pass by the sheep intestine trail that swirls down from Yundui Mountain, walk in the forest of peaks, and confront each other on the cliffs. And Heishi Pass is located at the end of this trail, connected in three directions, confronting Piling, and becoming the pivot of Gongxian, Luoyang, and Xingnan.
After dark, Shan Xiong believed in the order of the soldiers to cross the river, quietly and silently shaped like this sheep intestine path.
The trail is about eighteen miles long, and according to the reconnaissance of the horses, there are not many soldiers and horses stationed in the Black Stone Pass, and almost all of its main forces are concentrated in the southern pass. As a result, the defense of this eastern checkpoint was relatively lax, and the weather was cold, and even the patrol posts were canceled.
God help me!
Shan Xiongxin ordered, the horse wrapped its hooves, the mouth title, quickly passed the path of the Black Stone Pass, and the soldiers approached the Black Stone Pass.
At the same time, he was a little more careful, and let the vanguard army of about 800 men set out first, and when the vanguard army reached the middle of the path, the army would follow. The forward army and the main force are about five miles apart, which can ensure that the front and rear echo. In the event of an ambush, the vanguard would block the enemy's attack, and then the main force quickly withdrew, lined up at the Blackstone Ferry to meet the enemy, and gave the enemy a ferocious head-on attack.
Shan Xiongxin also suffered a lot and had to do so.
When the vanguard army entered the trail, there was no obstacle along the way, and Shan Xiongxin was relieved and ordered the army to enter the trail and prepare to respond.
According to Shan Xiongxin's idea, a small group of people as the vanguard can make the Blackstone Pass defenders lose their vigilance.
If they go out of the pass to fight, the rear army will take advantage of the situation and take the Black Stone Pass in one go...... If the Blackstone Pass garrison doesn't fight, it's easy. A small force of soldiers and horses can gain a firm foothold, and after the main force arrives, launch a general attack on Blackstone Pass and conquer it in one fell swoop.
In short, in Shan Xiongxin's view, this battle must be won.
However, when the army entered the trail, Shan Xiongxin's eyelids began to jump non-stop.
For some reason, he always felt restless. Maybe he was scared by Li Yanqing's design, so that the closer he got to Heishi Pass, the more nervous he became. Or ...... I shouldn't be at the front and sit in the middle army, maybe it's safer......
"Quick, everyone hurry up, the vanguard army is now approaching the Black Stone Pass, sons and daughters speed up."
Shan Xiongxin was clever, and after making up his mind, he turned his horse to the side of the road, made a letter of encouragement, and constantly urged his soldiers and horses to speed up.
In the eyes of the soldiers, it is understandable for Shan Xiongxin to do this.
But in fact, Shan Xiongxin took this opportunity to retreat to the land of the rear army.
When the soldiers and horses marched to the center of the path, brilliant fireworks suddenly appeared on both sides of the cliff.
The clear fireworks illuminated the path through the air, and from the jungle on both sides of the cliff, rows of archers suddenly appeared.
And in the Black Stone Pass, there was a loud shout of killing that resounded through the sky.
In the firelight, a green-shirted scribe stood under a certain yellow umbrella on the cliff. Covered with a moon-white crane, holding a folding fan in his hand, the brush is opened, and on the blue brocade fan, there are four big characters written on the dragon flying and phoenix dancing: Strategizing! On this cold day, the young man didn't seem to feel cold, and shook his fan twice, and then said loudly: "Single, dare to offend me and close the city, Xue will wait for you for a long time!" ā
Before the words fell, Xue Shu closed the folding fan in his hand and pointed to the path: "Release the arrow!" ā
In an instant, arrows rained down on the sky.
The Wagang army, which was a little flustered, was attacked by this arrow and immediately panicked.
Shan Xiongxin still kept a little calm, and after quickly observing it, he shouted loudly: "Brothers, there are not many thieves, rush forward, there is still a way to live." ā
The slopes are a bit steep, but not impossible to climb.
At a cursory glance, the Xingyang army is only more than a thousand people, and most of them are archers.
If you rush up, you can't say that you can still defeat the opponent. If you can hold Xue Shu, this Black Stone Pass will naturally be self-defeating.
Shan Xiongxin knew that Xue Shui was Li Yanqing's brother and was resourceful.
The appearance of this person here just shows to a certain extent that Li Yanqing is not in Heishi Pass.
Since Li Yanqing is not here, how can I be afraid of your little Xue Shui? Thinking of this, Shan Xiongxin raised his lance and pointed to the hillside, and ordered his soldiers and horses to attack.
After two rounds of arrow rain, the Sui army on the hillside suddenly stopped shooting.
The Wagang army launched an attack, and when they climbed to the middle of the waist, they suddenly heard Xue Shu shouting: "Let go of the wooden stones." ā
With Xue Shu's order, I saw a sudden fire on the hillside. One by one, one person can't hug it, about two meters long, weighing hundreds of catties, and the whole body is smeared with tung oil, and it rolls down from the hillside with a bang. The Wagang army was smashed and screamed, and some of them were unlucky, and they were run over by the burning logs, and their whole bodies burned up, turning into burning people. Not only is the power of this rolling log huge, but the most terrifying thing is that it rushes down the hill and lands on the trail, which quickly becomes congested. The foot soldiers may not be affected, but the cavalry's war horses, when they were attacked by this kind of firewood, were suddenly shocked, and Xi Yuyu neighed and jumped wildly, causing countless people, innocent and tragic.
Shan Xiongxin was furious, and he was ready to go into battle in person......
But at this time, there was a report from the Malay: "General Qiyu, the vanguard army was wiped out under the Black Stone Pass, and a group of men and horses were killed from the Black Stone Pass, and its main general was the king Fubao." ā
Wang Fubao?
Shan Xiongxin was taken aback......
Didn't Wang Fubao go to Xingyang? How could it be at Blackstone Pass?
Now, no matter how reckless Shan Xiongxin is, he knows that he has been tricked! Maybe from the beginning, the Sui army withdrew its troops from Songgao County in order to lure themselves into the bait?
Seeing that the path was becoming more and more congested, in order to avoid the trampling of the war horses and the fire wood that fell from the sky, the Wagang army scattered and fled.
Shan Xiong confidently knew that the capture of Heishi Pass had obviously become a utopia.
Fortunately, he was quite cautious, and arranged for soldiers and horses to guard the Blackstone Ferry. Otherwise, if the other party copies the back road......
"Withdraw troops, withdraw troops!"
Shan Xiongxin desperately grabbed a frightened war horse, turned over and stepped on, and fled to the Black Stone Ferry.
As soon as he runs, the Wagang army will be even more chaotic! The main generals have all run away, what else are we going to fight? The Wagang army who stayed on the trail followed Shan Xiongxin and left. It's just that in this way, it has suffered those Wagang troops who climbed to the half-middle of the hillside. If you attack it, you will die; Go down, or die. Not to mention the steepness of the hillside, just the rolling wood and stones that fall from the hillside are enough to kill a person.
"Don't lose it again, don't lose it again! I'm willing to ......"
There were clever Wagang troops, hiding behind rocks and shouting loudly. If the first person shouts, then a second person will follow suit. Soon, nearly 1,000 Wagang soldiers who were thrown on the half-middle of the hillside threw away their ordnance and lay on the hillside, throwing their bodies to the ground and shouting loudly.
There is no way, otherwise you will be hit by rolling wood stones.
Although it is a little colder lying on the snow, you can at least have more protection.
Xue Shu waved his hand, and the rolling wood and stones stopped at the same time. A soldier with a loud voice stepped forward and shouted: "Lie on the ground, and rest and move, otherwise you will be killed." ā
By this time, the trail was in chaos.
War horses galloped and jumped, soldiers hugged their heads and rats, trampled on the dead, and countless people were injured.
"Xue Langjun, Shan Xiongxin ran away!"
Xue Shui stood under the umbrella of Huang Luo, with a cold smile on his face, "Run?" I've taken great pains to make such a trap, and if I don't let him fall off a few layers of skin, wouldn't it seem that I am not clever? Launch the Flame Rocket now, it's time to go all-out! ā
Ten pro-soldiers, drawing arrows, bending bows and arrows.
On the arrow, there is a bamboo pipe with a long lead underneath. Ignite the fuse with a fire fold, and sparks will splash everywhere. Ten chirping arrows soared into the sky, exploding in mid-air, and fireworks were flying, which was spectacular. In the direction of the Blackstone Ferry, there was immediately the sound of rumbling war drums......
******
On the bank of Cai Shui, dozens of fireworks bloomed in the air, which was extremely eye-catching.
Li Mi looked up, his face was pale, and after getting off the building car, he turned over and straddled the horse, "Collect the troops, immediately Mingjin and collect the troops." ā
The gong sounded, and the Wagang army on the battlefield retreated one after another.
But it's easy for you to attack, and if you want to withdraw, it's not so easy!
The Eight Formations were like a huge quagmire, holding back the retreat of the Wagang Army. Although the battle was fierce for a long time, the formation of the Xingyang army was not scattered. While attacking, keep moving forward as the formation changes. Although the speed is not fast, it makes the Wagang army pay a heavy price for every step of retreat. On the periphery of the Eight Formations, Pei Xingyan, Xin Wenli, Liu Heng, and Kan Ling led the cavalry to circle non-stop. Many Wagang troops broke out of the formation, but they were met with arrows like raindrops, killing and wounding countless people.
Cai Jiande was killed by Pei Xingyan with a hammer.
Zheng Ting fled like abandoning his horse, mixing in the rout and trying to escape, but was slapped to the ground by the oncoming Liu Heng. Before he could get up, a group of iron horsemen swept by. After a hundred horses and four hundred hooves trampled on Zheng Tingxiang's body, only a pile of unrecognizable and blurred flesh was left on the ground......
It's miserable!
Cai Shui's ice surface turned blood-red, revealing a strange color under the light of the fire.
Li Mi didn't dare to linger any longer, and hurriedly ordered the troops to be withdrawn. But after the gong sounded, the Wagang army failed to withdraw from the battlefield, but attracted a group of soldiers and horses to enter from the rear.
is the head of the general, with a black helmet and black armor, a black horse in his crotch, and a green lance in his palm.
"Li Mi, Luo Shixin is here, leave the dog's head and leave."
Under normal circumstances, it would not be easy for Luo Shixin to attack Li Mi's rear army. Li Mi is also a person who is familiar with military books and has all kinds of battle formations all night, and when he is arrayed, he has always attached great importance to the defense of the rear formation. But now, Li Mi's rear army is about to collapse at the touch of a button.
The rout on the battlefield made the exhausted Wagang army like a frightened bird.
With the sound of the gong, the rear army has begun to disperse, ready to retreat. Luo Shixin came out at this time, like a fierce tiger, rushing into the already panicked flock. The sheep is not the opponent of the tiger in the first place, and if he panics, where is there still the heart to step forward to fight?
Almost more than eighty percent of the Wagang army thinks that this time they are afraid that they have been fooled!
In addition, the sky has darkened, and it is not clear how many soldiers and horses Luo Shixin has brought. Anyway, a team of iron cavalry rushed over, like a meat grinder, killing the Wagang army in the place where it passed. The front can't retreat, and the back can't stop. Li Mi did not have a good understanding in the Chinese army, and he had no intention of fighting again. Escorted by his own soldiers, Li Mi was wrapped in the Chinese army and left in embarrassment. In the morning, he approached Cai Shui's bank with great interest, probably because he didn't expect to suffer such a fiasco...... At this time, Li Mi panicked like a lost dog.
"Caught Li Mi!"
On the battlefield, there was a sudden burst of chanting.
When the Wagang army, which was still fighting desperately with the Sui army, heard about it, he followed the sound and saw that the Wagang army's central army had disappeared.
A general, immediately hitched a ride on a person, with a longing shadow, very similar to Li Mi's appearance.
Mi Gong was arrested?
The head of the general of the Wagang Army buzzed, and his first reaction was not to grab it, but to ...... Run!
At this time, no one will be a filial son or grandson. Even Li Mi was arrested, what the fuck are we going to do here?
Those who can run are immediately scattered.
If they can't run away, they throw away their weapons, sit on the ground, cross their legs, hold their heads with both hands, and shout: "Surrender, surrender!" ā
Li Mi, who was coerced away by his own soldiers, heard that Le Ma looked back.
He was eager to go back and tell the Wagang soldiers that he had not been caught.
But in this chaotic army, who will believe it?
"King, let's go...... If you don't leave, I'm afraid you won't be able to leave! ā
The soldiers grabbed the reins of Li Mi's horse and shouted loudly: "Your Majesty, stay in the green mountains, don't be afraid of running out of firewood, kill them first and then find a way." ā
Yes, stay in the green mountains, don't be afraid of no firewood!
Li Mi gritted his teeth and urged the horse to leave.
At this time, if he continues to stay by Cai Shui, I am afraid that the only thing that will greet him is the catastrophe......
The shouting behind him became smaller and smaller, until there was no more.
Seeing that it was almost time, the wind suddenly rose in the wilderness, and the temperature dropped sharply.
Li Mi ran all the way with the remnants of the defeated army, and after getting rid of the pursuit of the Xingyang army, he found a sheltered sparse forest before he stopped.
After counting, there were only a few hundred soldiers and horses left.
Cai Jiande is dead, Zheng Tingxiang is dead, and there are ...... Li Yude is also gone, presumably because of the bad luck.
In this battle, Li Mi suffered heavy losses, with an army of 50,000 killed and wounded, and it was even more difficult to count the fugitives. The soldiers lit the bonfire, and Li Mi sat by the fire, feeling the heat emitted by the bonfire, and the pale face was as pale as paper, and it was gradually a trace of blood.
"What should we do now, King?"
Li Mi's chief guard held a bowl of hot soup and brought it to Li Mi.
I took a sip of the hot soup and tried to calm the panic in my heart. Li Mi gradually calmed down, closed his eyes, and fell into deep thought.
"Let's go to Junyi."
Li Mi took a deep breath and stood up, "Send the order, let everyone leave immediately, and we will go to Junyi." ā
"But, it's about to get windy!"
Li Mi patted the guard on the shoulder, "Of course Lone knows that the wind is going to blow...... We are now on our journey, with some difficulty, but we can escape from the pursuit of the thieves. With such a strong wind, I'm afraid the thieves won't be able to catch up. Taking advantage of this opportunity, we rushed to Junyi, then gathered our soldiers and horses, and then fought a decisive battle with the thief army. ā
Junyi was guarded by Li Mi's confidant Wang Bodang.
Li Mi believed that Shi Derui would surrender, but Wang Bodang would definitely not surrender.
But until now, he couldn't figure out why Shi Derui surrendered? When it was time to attack Yu Wenhua, Shi Derui still swore an oath, and he couldn't see the slightest hint of surrender. But he won a big victory, but he suddenly surrendered, what happened?
Vaguely, Li Mi felt that there was something strange in this.
But he couldn't figure out what was going on......
Anyway, after the lonely man captures De Ruisheng alive, ask him about the truth.
Everyone drank a few sips of hot soup and gained some strength, so under Li Mi's urging, they got up one after another and started to hurry again.
As it passed, the wind grew stronger.
The north wind was howling, and it was snowing heavily.
Li Mi and his entourage walked towards Junyi, just against the wind. It can be described as a difficult step on this road, and halfway through, Li Mima lost his front hoof and injured his leg. To make matters worse, his horse also broke its Achilles tendon and could not continue its journey. Li Mi gritted his teeth, carried a spear, and continued to move forward with the support of the guards.
It's just that the wind is getting stronger and the snow is getting stronger.
As the sun turns, the snowflakes are flying all over the sky, making it almost impossible to see the road ahead.
"King, there seems to be a temple ahead, let's take a rest."
Speaking of which, this rapid march not only exhausted the Wagang army, but also suffered greatly from Li Mi himself. If he was stiff and breathed a breath before, then now he has reached the limit after walking in this wind and snow for two hours, close to four hours.
Li Mi really can't walk!
Not only the physical exhaustion, but also the weakness after escaping death.
Seeing that the wind and snow were so violent, it must be difficult for Na Xin Wenli and the others to catch up...... In fact, the reason why Li Mi insisted on rushing was not because he was worried about Xin Wenli and Pei Xingyan. He was worried about Li Yanqing! The appearance of Kan Ling and Liu Heng also shows to some extent that Li Yanqing must be back! He devised such a huge trap and waited for him to come. From beginning to end, Li Yanqing did not appear on the battlefield...... If Yanqing really appeared, Li Mi would not be afraid! The problem is that this guy didn't appear, which made Li Mi even more frightened. This guy is so old and spicy in layout and meticulous in his thoughts, he doesn't look like a twenty-one-year-old young man at all.
What were you doing when you were twenty-one?
At that time, Li Mi was also praised as a prodigy by Yang Su, but he was only Yang Xuangan's staff. It may be handy to come up with a plan and make a plan, but if you talk about such an old-fashioned layout, you can never think of it! Li Yanqing didn't come out for a while, and Li Mi was worried for a while! But now that he has left Kaifeng, Li Yanqing must have no choice but to do it. As soon as this mind relaxed, Li Mi really couldn't hold it anymore.
"Okay, let's take a break."
Li Mi nodded, almost hanging on the guard's body, and walked forward.
As the guards said, there was a small temple not far away. However, after years of war, this temple has been abandoned...... The ruins and ruins of the wall look extremely poignant. In such weather, looking at such a dilapidated temple, thinking of his fiasco, Li Mi was sad.
Stepping into the mountain gate, he suddenly heard a series of weapons colliding in the Daxiong Treasure Hall.
Immediately after, two guards flew out of the main hall, and someone shouted angrily: "A blind dog thing dares to be arrogant in front of a certain family." ā
This sound is so familiar!
Li Mi couldn't help but sigh in his heart, and he didn't know where he came from, pushed away the guards who were supporting him, and took two steps with his spear.
"Everybody stop......"
He stood outside the Daxiong Treasure Hall and asked in a trembling voice, "The people inside, but San Lang?" ā
Before he could finish speaking, a figure rushed out of the main hall.
The man who came was about eight feet tall, very burly, and extremely heroic. On the moon-white robe, stained with bloodstains, he crossed the sword and the bow, and held a silver spear in his hand.
He was on the steps of the main hall, and the moment he saw Li Mi, he was also stunned!
After a long time, I saw someone who came three steps and two steps, rushed down from the steps, and pushed the golden mountain and poured the jade pillar in front of Li Mi.
"Wang Yong deserves to die, he has the trust of the king...... The king, Junyi...... Lost! ā
When Li Mi heard this, his head buzzed, and he felt a burst of blood churning in his chest, and he spurted blood, and fell into the arms of the guards.
