"Boom, boom—"

A low roar came, which made Liang Hong and the others extremely stunned, and they also felt very strange at this time, because this was not in their plan.

Originally, Liang Hong's plan was to first use his group of people to introduce Zhang Rui into the gourd valley, and then he led a bandit army of 3,000 people, relying on the valley bottom, relying on Ren Yingying, Blue Phoenix, Tian Boguang and other masters, to block the offensive of the official army, and then the bandit army ambushed at the mouth of the valley in advance lit a fire and cut off the back road of the official army, and then the bandit army ambushed on the mountain beams on both sides used trebuchets to throw explosives to the officers and soldiers in the valley, and slowly blew these officers and soldiers to death.

These trebuchets are designed by Liang Hong himself, the structure is extremely simple, basically a bracket, plus a beam, a long stick is tied to the beam, one end of the stick is a flat large wooden spoon, the other end is tied to a rope, when operating, first put the thing that needs to be thrown in the wooden spoon, and then pull the rope by one or two people, and the thing is naturally thrown out vigorously. Due to the simple structure of this trebuchet, many trebuchets have been made on the mountain during this time, and last night after they planned carefully, they had no less than a hundred trebuchets secretly transported to the peaks on both sides of the gourd valley.

Of course, if the trebuchet only throws stones, the power is still too small, so Liang Hong has already modified its ammunition and changed the stones into explosive packs.

This explosive package was also designed by Liang Hong himself, and even the explosives were Liang Hong asked Wang Wensu to buy back saltpeter and other materials, and then according to his experience, he used the appropriate proportion to prepare explosive powder with stronger blasting ability, and then he used these explosives to be half a catty unit, carefully wrapped with oil paper, with twists, and then took this ** as the core, and then wrapped stones, tribulus terrestris and other things around the periphery, and then the whole thing was wrapped in coarse cloth, weighing ten catties, just suitable for trebuchet throwing, The distance can be up to 100 zhang away, and then, when the trebuchet throws it, it only needs to ignite the twist of the explosive bag first, and then throw it out.

In this way, Liang Hong is equivalent to having a small close-range howitzer beyond the times, this kind of thing, once the combat scale is formed, the combat power will be extremely terrifying, and, the most important thing is that this thing has a simple structure and is easy to manufacture, so this is definitely a big weapon in Liang Hong's hands, he originally wanted to wait until Yang Shen's army entered the mountain, and then expose this secret weapon, but now because he wants to destroy Zhang Rui's army with the smallest sacrifice, he has no choice but to do so, I had to take out this secret weapon first.

It is conceivable that once Liang Hong's strategy succeeds, 5,000 officers and troops will be crowded in the gourd valley, and hundreds of trebuchets on both sides will continue to bombard the officers and troops in the gourd valley.

It's just that what Liang Hong didn't expect was that things had an accident in the middle of the way, for example, now, because the sound of the explosive package explosion was too loud and too powerful, after the snow on the surrounding peaks was shaken, it actually began to avalanche.

This situation really made Liang Hong a little stunned, because he knew in his heart that according to the original plan, as long as they stabilized the battle line and clearly separated the official army from the bandit army, then the official army would be attacked by fierce artillery fire, and eventually the dead and wounded, and they would inevitably win, but now, the avalanche does not pay attention to what the front is not a front, and those heavy snows are sliding down from all sides and filling directly into the valley. In this way, Liang Hong and those officers and soldiers will all be buried in the snow and die together.

This is obviously the ending that Liang Hong didn't want to see, he just wanted to lure the officials and soldiers, but he didn't want to die with the officers and soldiers, so at that moment Liang Hong raised his eyes to look at the sides, and saw the snow cover sliding down the valley, the officials and soldiers were so frightened that the ghosts cried wolves and howled, and they fled in all directions, and the people on their side were also trembling, dumbfounded, and Liang Hong's heart also sank to the bottom of the sea.

There is no way, in the face of such a large-scale avalanche, any resistance is superfluous, and the only way left is to sit still, wait for death with peace of mind, and hand over the power of judgment to God, God lets whoever dies, whoever has to die, no one can escape, no one can hide.

According to Liang Hong's prediction, the amount of snow brought by such a large avalanche should basically fill the entire gourd valley in the end, that is, everyone will eventually be buried under a snow layer more than ten zhang deep.

What should I do?

There is no place to hide, the narrow gourd valley is five or six miles long, and now the soldiers in the valley are obviously divided into two groups, on one side is the official army of 5,000 people, occupying nearly three-quarters of the length of the entire valley, and the remaining quarter of the length is occupied by Liang Hong.

After the avalanche began, the officers and soldiers desperately retreated to the back, and some of them even rushed into the fire that blocked the road, trying to rush out of the valley, but in the end they just let out a scream, and were burned to ashes by the raging fire, the flame was ignited with a large amount of tung oil and pine branches, and it was difficult to extinguish it for a while.

However, even so, there were still many officers and soldiers who rushed into the fire like crazy and tried to rush out, because they knew clearly in their hearts at this time that if they could get away with it, there might be hope of survival, and if they continued to stay in the valley, it would undoubtedly be a dead end.

Therefore, in just a moment, the raging fire had already engulfed hundreds of people, and the corpses of those people were piled up, and the human fat was burned, which only added fuel to the fire, making the fire almost a crematorium for officers and soldiers.

Different from the panic of the officers and soldiers, Liang Hong's side, because they already knew that there was no way out, their mentality calmed down, and everyone subconsciously gathered to the deepest part of the valley, and finally three thousand people leaned close together, shrunk under a cliff at the bottom of the valley, covering an area no larger than a football field, and then, at this time, the first avalanche torrent finally rolled down and poured into the valley, but the location was exactly in the middle of the valley, directly separating the official army and the bandit army.

Then, as the first stream of snow poured in, then the second, and then the third, in all directions, there were continuous streams of snow pouring down, rolling snow, and soon the valley was almost filled.

However, what made Liang Hong feel fortunate was that because they retreated to the bottom of the valley, there were almost vertical cliffs on both sides, so it was true that there were some snow blocks falling from the top of their heads, but the real snow flow was along the slope of the cliff top and flowed to the periphery, so in this way, although the entire valley was buried by the snow flow, he was able to live alone, 3,000 people, and in the end, there were no casualties, all of them were saved.

The huge avalanche lasted for I don't know how long, until finally the sky was slightly bright, and Liang Hong and the distance in front of them was less than ten zhang away, and they were also buried by thick snow, and then, at this time, the avalanche completely stopped.

After dawn, everyone came out of the hideout, climbed the snow peak, and found that the entire valley had been basically filled, and all the officers and soldiers were buried under the snow, and then, Liang Hong and others looked at this scene, they all felt like a dream, and after a while, they all cheered unconsciously, and then they all breathed a sigh of relief, sat down on the snow, and gasped for breath, the joy in their hearts was indescribable.

God bless handsome guy, this is definitely God bless handsome guy!

Liang Hong opened his eyes and looked around at the white snow, and he couldn't find any other reasonable explanation.

Such a big avalanche actually only buried 5,000 officers and soldiers, and did not harm them in the slightest, how can this be explained, God is helping Liang Hong, and Providence is on his side.

"Hooray, hooray—"

I don't know when, there were bursts of shouts in the bandit army, and then someone rushed over and lifted Liang Hong up and threw him into the air, shouting loudly in his mouth.

Obviously, in the hearts of these people, they also feel that Liang Hong is too magical, and they feel that he has been protected and recognized by God, and it is definitely the destiny of heaven, otherwise how do you explain this big avalanche, why did you bury the official army and let them go?

In fact, for Liang Hong, this is a very simple truth, because the terrain, the terrain at the bottom of the valley is special, there are vertical mountains on both sides, and the snow can't fall, isn't it a very simple thing? At that time, it was for this reason that he led people to withdraw there, which was not providence at all, but the embodiment of his personal wisdom and experience. However, those soldiers who were born and died with him didn't think so, they just felt that Liang Hong was destined to return, so they were excited, they felt that they were with the right person, and they didn't feel that everyone was excited, all excited, above the snow, a ball of heat, straight into the sky.

I don't know how long the celebration lasted, the crowd finally calmed down, and then Liang Hong gathered the crowd and checked the situation, only to find that in this battle, his losses were actually not small, although he was not killed by the officers and soldiers, but because of the avalanche, the trebuchet team that was originally arranged on the mountain beams on both sides, including people and tools, was all swallowed up by the heavy snow, which was regarded as the loss of an important artillery support force.

But fortunately, the trebuchet team was easy to set up, so Liang Hong was quite able to accept it in his heart, and then, what they had to do next, naturally, was to continue to lure the fish into the bait and calmly unfold all the plans, so as to completely knock Yang Shen to the ground.

"Brother Shouren!"

Under the light of the morning sun, Liang Hong stood on the hillside, looking coldly at the cascading mountains, and the cloak behind him whirred in the wind.

"The younger brother is here, what does the eldest brother command?" Wang Shouren stepped forward and asked.

"You quickly sent someone to pretend to be a defeated soldier of the official army to ask Wei Ying for help, and said that Zhang Rui's 5,000-strong army was trapped in Hulu Valley, and if you didn't save it, the whole army would be wiped out. In addition, you take another 1,000 people to Zhang Rui's camp, seize the grain and grass, and transport it to the deep mountains, and everyone else will immediately set off and go to the Sanshan River for an ambush! Liang Hong said in a deep voice.

"Yes, little brother, let's do it!" Wang Shouren happily accepted the order, and then turned around and began to arrange.
