Chapter 114: Sweeping the Wolf Rider (4)
Sima Yan led two thousand cavalry to run quickly, and two thousand cavalry was already the ultimate force that could be dispatched in Zhenyuan City. The supplies on the front line of the Merlinchu River cannot be lost, and the safety of the materials must be maintained. Sima Yan anxiously urged the horse to gallop, and when he was about to approach the convoy, the clairvoyance in Bayin's hand turned to Sima Yan.
"Hehe, the fat sheep is here. Orondo, your 10,000-strong team intercepts Sima Yan, it's best to capture him alive, if you really can't die, go ahead. ”
The bearded Orondo carried a mace and ordered 10,000 horses to kill Sima Yan.
Sima Yan, who was running, heard the explosion from a distance, he was so anxious that he was about to urge the whole army to speed up, when the captain who reported the news leaned over.
"General, it seems that the convoy has been surrounded, and the lowly official has an idea to save the situation."
"Oh? What's the plan, come quickly. ”
"My trick is to catch you."
The lieutenant leaned close and jumped forward, jumped onto Sima Yan's horse, shook his hand and threw out a lasso, and strangled Sima Yan's neck. The war horse man under Sima Yan's crotch stood up, and the captain and Sima Yan hugged each other and rolled from the horse to the ground. Several people who were with the captain immediately surrounded the two, and pointed their knives and guns at Sima Yan.
"The whole army is stopped, and you are not allowed to go forward, or I will kill your general."
The lieutenant pressed a sharp dagger against Sima Yan's throat and loudly threatened Sima Yan's subordinates. The incident broke out, and Sima Yan's subordinates didn't have time to rescue, and just when they were still hesitating, the sound of rumbling horses' hooves came, and 10,000 cavalry surrounded the 2,000 Yan army.
Sima Yan was trampled on his legs and knelt on the ground, his helmet had been removed, and his gray hair was pulled back by the centurion of the Rong Department in his hand, Sima Yan had to raise his head, exposing his throat, and a sharp dagger was across Sima Yan's throat.
Sima Yan hissed and shouted, "The generals will listen to the order." Quickly break through the siege and tell Zhenyuan to defend Zhenyuan too much, if the city is broken, blow up the city, and not let a little material fall into the hands of the Rong Department. Come on!!! ”
"Hahahaha. Sima Yan, don't you think it's a little late to talk now? Ben Khan has been waiting for you for a long time. Hehe, the Yan army over there is quite capable of fighting. Also very patient. It's a pity that it's still a little tender compared to Ben Khan. Sima Yan, you don't need them to report the news, Ben Khan will take you to Zhenyuan City with you. Our Surhu Dai Khan said that as long as you open Zhenyuan City, it will be counted as your great achievement, and the reward for you will be the same as before. Okay, don't waste time, tie Sima Yan to the horse, and let's go to Zhenyuan City. I killed all 2,000 men. ”
Orondo laughed and then ordered viciously.
"Shoot the arrows."
The 2,000 Yan army, led by an old lieutenant, launched a decisive assault on the Rong cavalry. However, the number of people was too small, and the war horses lost their speed advantage again, and Orondo only used one charge to kill all the two thousand Yan troops under the horses. Orondo simply cleaned up the battlefield and led his subordinates to chase Bayin's brigade. At this time, Wang Meng was still observing the dense forest on the opposite slope, and the birds and sparrows were constantly flying over the dense forest, indicating that there were heavy soldiers hidden there. But how did he know that there were only a hundred and ten sheep in the woods whose tails had been cut off and hung upside down from the trees.
The sound of rumbling horses' hooves was heard, and the main force of the Flying Tiger Army arrived. After quickly dealing with the Rong cavalry, who were still risking their lives to attack the convoy, they quickly moved forward. Niu Tianci called Wang Meng to him and asked him why he didn't attack. Wang Meng told Tianci of his judgment. Tianci waved his hand and ordered Zhao Zilong to lead people into the dense forest to search. When Zhao Zilong ran to Tianci with a sheep without a tail, before Tianci could speak, Wang Meng slapped himself in the face.
"Big brother, no, Grand Commander. The last general is incompetent, please punish the eldest brother. ”
"There is nothing wrong with prudence. But not taking the initiative to test the truth is a taboo for generals. You have always been bold and careful, but after all, you are inexperienced. This matter is recorded once to see the after-effects. The departure of the whole army shall not be delayed. ”
Wang Meng shouted his order and led his army to the front.
"Young Master. Are you too strict with the third master? Wind Madness asked.
"Governing the army must be as good as it is, and I can't look at it differently because of my relationship with Mengzi. Rest assured, Matako will understand. ”
The Flying Tiger Army quickly came to the place where Sima Yan was captured, only to see the corpses of two thousand soldiers scattered all over the field, and the broken golden dragon flag was slanted on the ground and fluttered weakly.
"Zilong went to see if there were any brothers alive, and the whole army accelerated forward."
The Flying Tiger Army kept rushing forward, and there was no need to ask, Niu Tianci already had an accurate judgment. His judgment was that a large army of the Rong tribe had rushed to Zhenyuan City. It's just that what he didn't expect was that Sima Yan, the Great Governor of the Far East, would be captured by the Rong Army.
Zhenyuan City is located on the plain, only fifty miles away from the Meilinchu River. At this time, it was the lunch time of the soldiers of the Yan Army on the defense line of the Meilin Chu River. The Yan soldiers of the brigade were lining up to eat.
On the high slope on the other side of the Merlinchu River, clumps of bushes and weeds were removed, and ballistas stretched out. If one were to shake the earth from the air, they would find that the high slopes along the river bank were lined with ballistas, and boxes of thunderbolts had been opened, and one round of thunderbolts had been loaded. In the depths of the grass not far from the ballista position, there were countless Rong cavalry who were densely ambushed. Each of them had a small wooden stick in his mouth, and even the horse's mouth was covered with a cloth bag. And between the ballista position and the Rong cavalry, there was a large group of Rong troops carrying small wooden boats and holding various tools.
On a sentry tower five miles away from the riverbank, Dongjung Dai Khan Surhu was looking at the other side of the river with clairvoyance.
"The Yan army is eating, and when we wait for half a pillar of incense, you must know that those who are full are the most tired, and that is when we attack. The ballista team was instructed to attack the place where the Yan army had gathered and their warehouses, and to ensure that the Yan army did not fire a single thunderbolt or a crossbow arrow when our army crossed the river. ”
"Yes."
Su Erhu put down his clairvoyance, took out a small silver flask from his skin and took a sip. The spicy liquor made his mouth hot, and Su Erhu narrowed his eyes to savor the taste of the liquor, and at this moment, his heart couldn't help beating wildly. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and this time the entire Far East will be completely in the hands of Dongrong. Dongrong's strength will leap forward, and by that time, he will have strong capital to openly fight against Dayan. If not, we will have to wait for next year to make plans. It must be done, Brother Erdunke is waiting for him, for Brother Erdunke this time, no matter what the cost, he must succeed.
"Great Khan, it's time."
"Let's go!"
Duan Xiaosi'er was a ballista on the defense line of the Meilin Chu River, and at this time, he was holding his rice bowl with his back against the ballista, and he couldn't stop stuffing the rice in the bowl into his mouth. For several days, the supply delivery was not timely, and the pieces of meat that used to be indispensable for lunch were lost for many days, and were replaced by pieces of locally produced pumpkins. To be honest, this thing is still good, it is shelf-stable and full, but it is not as good as meat pieces to satisfy cravings. Duan Xiaosan planned to catch a few water birds in the reeds by the river after eating, and at the worst to get some bird eggs, so that there was still some oil and water.
Woo, a thunderbolt flew over Duan Xiaosan's head, accurately smashing on the pile of ammunition covered with oilcloth, and before Duan Xiaosi could shout a word, a huge explosion sounded. Fireworks rose, shrapnel flew sideways, and the dozen or so brothers who had gathered to eat together instantly turned into minced meat and scattered in all directions. Duan Xiaosi'er covered his ears and rolled into the trench, he clung to the wall of the trench and did not dare to make the slightest movement.
In just a moment, the sky was covered in thick smoke, the earth became dark, and the sound of explosions hit Duan Xiaosi's eardrums. The earth was trembling, Duan Xiaosi couldn't get up even if he wanted to, and the earth and rocks falling from the trench almost buried him.
There are still many Yan soldiers like Duan Xiaosi who have experienced, they are looking for hiding places in a panic, and shouting loudly for their respective commanders, but their voices and the loud explosion are as insignificant as they seem.
The explosion lasted for three pillars of incense, and in the interval between the explosions, Duan Xiaosi turned over and rushed to his ballista on his stomach. But his ballista had turned into a pile of scraps of wood doped with metal. Duan Xiaosi was stunned in place, he saw that dozens of pontoon bridges had been erected on the open river, and a team of wolf riders wielded snow-bright scimitars along the pontoon bridges to kill ashore, chasing and slashing the soldiers of the Yan army everywhere. Caught off guard, many Yan soldiers didn't even have weapons, so they fell under the knife of Dongrong wolf riders one by one.
Duan Xiaosi stood there stunned, not knowing what he should do. Suddenly, someone pushed him violently from the side, and Duan Xiaosi, who was caught off guard, was pushed and fell far away.
Boom, a loud bang sounded, and Duan Xiaosi saw that the old team pushing him was being blown to pieces by a thunderbolt.
"The team is ~~~~~, daddy, ~~~~~."
Duan Xiaosi cried and crawled over, looking around for his team, which was also his own father's flesh and blood. Duan Xiaosi's hands were full of bloody minced meat, and he couldn't tell which part of the team's body was this. Duan Xiaosi knelt on the ground holding the minced meat and wailed, and suddenly he raised his head and looked at the wolf rider who had been killed with blood-filled eyes.
"Wolf cubs, I'm fighting with you."
Duan Xiaosi quickly ran towards a ballista that fell to the ground, he struggled to pick up the heavy cannon body, loaded a thunderbolt, knelt on one knee, squinted one eye, stretched out his right arm and gave a thumbs up. This is the fast ranging method taught to him by Ma Qimeng himself, and the smart Duan Xiaosi can learn it as soon as he learns it, so Ma Qimeng also specially led Xiaosi to Zhenyuan City to drink a meal of flower wine.
"Team Zheng, Captain Ma, Xiao Si will not disgrace you. Daddy, son avenges you. Put! ”
The thunderbolt whizzed away, right in the middle of a pontoon bridge. The violent explosion broke the pontoon bridge in two, and the wolf riders who were crossing the river on the bridge were either killed or fell into the river. Duan Xiaosi continued to fire thunderbolts like this, and all the six pontoon bridges facing him after a while were blown up.
Duan Xiaosi's heroic performance inspired the soldiers of the Yan army who were struggling to resist, and they roared angrily and rushed out of the trenches, risking the risk of being blown to pieces and fighting the wolf riders who had killed them. Duan Xiaosi kept changing the gun position, which also allowed him to avoid the bombardment of thunderbolts on the opposite bank. When he destroyed the fourteenth pontoon bridge, four or five thunderbolts flew towards him together, and the clever Duan Xiaosi jumped into the trench.
Boom, boom, that section of the trench was blown up and collapsed, Duan Xiaosi was shocked and fainted, but fortunately, the roof of the collapsed hideout happened to be on him, avoiding the doom of Duan Xiaosi being buried alive.
Su Erhu stood on the sentry tower and watched the Dongrong Iron Cavalry that continued to drive through the Meilin Chu River, clapping the handrails with both hands and laughing.
"Hahaha, the Far East is mine." (To be continued.) )
