Chapter 12: Zilong shows his might

Covering an area of only a few hundred acres, Fuyong Mountain is neither tall nor steep. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info but in the Shandong Peninsula of Pingchuan, it is a rare strategic place. During the turmoil at the end of the Qin Dynasty, Han Xin, the king of Qi, built a fortress on the mountain. Now that time has passed, the fortress has long been abandoned, but it has been occupied by bandits like Xu Dumu and has become their base camp.

Brought to Zhao Min by Zhao Yun was a team leader of a Beihai County soldier, named Liu Han, a native of Pingshou, who had been hunting in Fuyong Mountain since he was a child, so he knew the terrain of Fuyong Mountain well. Zhao Min convened everyone in his camp tent to discuss the military, and the participants included Zhao Yun, Wei Ying, Shao Qi, and Zhang Qi, the county lieutenant of Xixian County.

Zhao Min pointed to the topographic map of Fuyong Mountain hanging on the wall and spoke first: "This king was ordered by the emperor to patrol the Beihai, and now I heard that Fuyong Mountain is occupied by bandits, and often plunders the township and endangers the people, which is really a great crime!" This king wants to raise righteous teachers and exterminate evil thieves, I don't know if you have a good plan? Speaking of this map, it was temporarily hand-drawn by Zhao Min according to Liu Han's description. For Zhao Min, a former architect, painting a picture is still a matter of effort.

"We wait for the king's fortune and be loyal to the king. If there is a danger of thieves, you should eradicate it, please order the king of the North Sea! Shao Qi spoke first. As Zhao Min's cronies, the first hand must be topped up first.

"Is it inappropriate for us to act rashly?" Zhang Qi, the county lieutenant of the drama, said a little stubbornly. It's not that he's afraid of thieves, after all, there are five hundred tigers in front, and he, the five hundred county soldiers, is still happy to do it in the back. It's just that his identity is embarrassing, and none of the people in the team are his cronies, so I am afraid that it will be difficult to explain to the Captain of Beihai County who sent troops without authorization.

"I'll fix a book immediately, and send it to Lu Taishou as soon as possible." Zhao Min nodded in agreement. "But the soldiers are fast, so you don't have to wait for Lord Lu to reply. This king bears the trust of the Son of Heaven, and he can act cheaply. ”

Zhao Yun lowered his head and thought for a moment: "Since you want to fight, it is better to fight sooner rather than later." The art of war is 'the first strike, the last strike is controlled by others'. This place is very close to Fuyong Mountain, if the sun is out, the bandits will soon find out the whereabouts of our army, and when the time comes, there will be a precaution, and our army will suffer heavy losses. It's better to sneak attack at night to win by surprise! ”

Zhao Min stroked his palms and was overjoyed: "So good!" According to Zilong's words. With Zilong as the main general, inform the soldiers to set off immediately after dinner, there must be no mistake! ”

The army camp is indeed very close to Fuyong Mountain, and it is only two hours before sunrise when it sets off at the foot of the mountain, and it is only two hours before sunrise. Zhao Yun arranged for the troops to rest on the spot for half an hour, ready to attack at any time. Zhao Min called Shao Qi and whispered a few words, Shao Qi nodded in agreement, and then turned around and disappeared into the vast night.

Half an hour later, Zhao Yun divided the troops into three, one team was led by Wei Ying, led by 200 tigers, and under the leadership of Liu Han, they attacked from the back mountain; Led by Zhang Qi all the way, he led 300 county soldiers to garrison in situ, take care of the baggage, and guard the mountain road by the way; On the last road, Zhao Yun personally led the team, led 200 tiger ben as the front team, 200 county soldiers as the rear team, and quietly touched the mountain along the front road!

Zhao Min doesn't know how to fight, and he doesn't want to do the nasty thing of a layman leading an insider; Besides, he was a half-otaku who had never killed a chicken in his previous life, and he was a little frightened by the bloody battlefield fight, so he honestly stayed in the left-behind team.

Watching Zhao Yun's team disappear into the night, Zhao Min's mood was a little nervous, after all, this was a real war, and it was his first stop in name, not child's play! It's a pity that it's far away, and it's dark and you can't see anything. He found that his palms were sweaty, and he had to find a way to distract himself. He turned his head to face Zhang Qi and asked casually: "County Lieutenant Zhang, I heard that you are a local, dare to ask if there are any hermit talents in Beihai County?" "Because of his embarrassing identity, if he is already out of office, he must not look down on him, a little prince who has no real power, only those hermits may have a trace of possibility.

Zhang Qi had a smile on his face, and he didn't show any nervousness. It seems that he is very satisfied with the arrangement of a position that does not have to contribute and can share the credit: "Xia Guan is a native of Zhuangwu County, and when it comes to hermits, he really knows one. I heard that there is a hermit in the neighboring county, who lives at the foot of Laoshan Mountain and was born in a grass house, I don't know if there is a big talent, anyway, our Lord Lu has been conquered several times, which makes Lord Taishou very unhappy. ”

Originally, Zhao Min casually asked to distract himself, and he didn't expect a martial artist to ask for any news, but he became interested when he said this: "Oh? I want to hear about it! ”

"This hermit's name is Meng Hou, his face is straightforward, and he has heard that he is extremely talented and has an ancient style. On weekdays, he teaches some students in the grass house, and he is very famous in the neighboring fields! ”

"Then I'm going to have to pay a visit!" Zhao Min secretly remembered the name Meng Hou in his heart, and then changed the topic. "I wonder if County Lieutenant Zhang knows anything about this retort bandit?"

This Zhang Qi is a big grinning character, and he is not suspicious: "The thief leader on this mountain is called Xu Dumu, and it is said that he was a small ditch handsome when there was a red scarf chaos; Later, most of the red turban thieves were destroyed, and this guy went up the mountain to become a bandit. In total, he has been entrenched on this retort mountain for more than three years. "The Red Turban Rebellion was the great uprising that swept across the whole summer, and the rebel army called itself the Red Turban World, and the leader who could independently lead a group of men and horses was called Qu Shuai, with subordinates ranging from hundreds of people to tens of thousands.

"I see! County Lieutenant Zhang is really well-informed, hehe! Zhao Min's eyes narrowed slightly. In a place less than a hundred miles away from the county, there are bandits who have been blatantly entrenched for three years, Lu Xu, Lu Xu, it seems that at least one arson is illegal, and you can't get away with the crime of being unable to pacify the place!

※※※※※※※※※※※※※※

Zhao Yun's team galloped all the way through the night, and it only took a moment to reach the first mountain gate. Zhao Yun stretched out his hand to signal the team to stop advancing, and took out his clairvoyance from his arms to carefully examine the mountain gate in front of him. There are three mountain gates in front of the mountain, all of which are built according to the mountain, the wall, the arrow tower and other facilities are complete, and the strong attack from the front will pay a lot of price. Zhao Yun put down his clairvoyance, waved his hand back, and said, "Do according to the plan." ”

The cold wind of the winter night was biting, and everyone except for the night watchman hid in the house to avoid the cold. On the wall, several thieves on night were hiding behind the arrow stacks to avoid the wind, yawning one by one, and some even snoring against the wall. At this time, everyone suddenly heard a deer roar, and hurriedly looked from the wall, and sure enough, less than a hundred steps away from the wall, an elk was running. It's just that the elk seems to have suffered a leg injury, and its limping speed is not fast, and it makes a burst of screams as it runs.

The people on the wall were overjoyed! You must know that due to the large population on the mountain, wild things are not common on weekdays, and now when you see a food and tooth sacrifice delivered to your door, how can you let it go? For a while, I didn't care to think about how there could be wild meat at the edge of the village at this time, and this small group of thieves who patrolled climbed down the wall of the wall and opened the mountain gate, and swarmed out, chasing the elk.

Just when everyone ran out of more than 100 steps, suddenly heard a trumpet, and then two teams of people and horses were killed on both sides of the courtyard wall. These horses were naturally Zhao Yun's team, and he had already arranged for the soldiers from Orion to go to the mountains to catch some wild animals when the team was resting, and specially explained that they wanted to catch them alive, so that they could be used at this time.

After controlling the wall, this first mountain gate has fallen into the bag. Zhao Yun quickly arranged to inspect the houses behind this mountain gate one by one to sweep away the remnants of the bandits. But after all, manpower is limited, and it is almost impossible to clean up in a short period of time without making a sound! Therefore, Zhao Yun left 200 county soldiers to clean up here, and led the remaining 200 tigers to kill the second mountain gate.

The second mountain gate is only less than two miles away from the first mountain gate, and they smell each other, so it is naturally impossible for such a big movement to be unresponsive. When Zhao Yun arrived in front of the door, the torches were gradually lit, and the sound of people shouting and gongs was connected. Because of the speed of Zhao Yun's horse, when he arrived under the wall, there were only a few personal soldiers around him, and the rest of the soldiers were still running wildly here. Zhao Yun knew that if he delayed any longer, when the thieves reacted, the losses would be heavy, so he didn't stop at the moment, and his speed did not decrease, and he went straight to the wall!

The wall is about three zhang (7 meters) high, and I saw Zhao Yun riding a horse to the wall, and suddenly jumped high from the horse when there were still a few zhang away! When he jumped to the highest point, he was still a zhang away from the top of the wall, and Zhao Yun was so shot out at this time that he didn't enter more than two feet on the earthen wall! Then he used both arms to do a pull-up similar to a gymnast's pull-up, bent his feet a little on the body of the gun that was stuck into the wall, and jumped up again with the force, while pulling out the spear. After a roll, it has landed firmly on the wall!

At this time, the thieves on the wall had not yet had time to gather, and only twenty or thirty people were looking around blankly with weapons. Zhao Yun paused for a moment after falling, identified the direction, and then brandished the silver spear and went straight to the direction of the Zhaimen to kill! But everywhere he went, silver light was flying, and the thieves were all on their backs, and there was no enemy! At the beginning, when the thieves saw that Zhao Yun was alone, they rushed from all over the world to pick up the bargain; But soon I found out that I was wrong! How could Zhao Zilong, a lonely general, be matched by these rabble? Dozens of people rushed up without even touching a single hair of the other party, and they either killed with one shot or lay on the ground wailing with missing arms and legs, so soon, the scene became Zhao Yun chasing behind alone, and a group of thieves shouted and fled in front!

Zhao Yun saw that the thieves had lost their courage, and they did not love to fight, so he rushed to the gate of the wall, broke the bolt of the door with one shot, and then turned the head of the gun and smashed it into the gate with the tail of the gun. Listening to the three sounds of "dong dong dong", the three-inch-thick gate was smashed open by Zhao Yun with his own strength, a gap that was enough for one person to pass through!

Seeing that the gate was broken, the tiger outside the door shouted, pulled the gate open and rushed in. Zhao Yun stood alone under the door with a gun, and when he saw that the soldiers had entered, he ordered everyone to clean up the second mountain gate, and only took fifty soldiers to the third mountain gate.
