Chapter 67: The Fall of Surabaya Pass (7)
Bang!
Qin Liang killed the enemy, all of them were fatal, and wherever he passed was like a tiger entering a flock of sheep, fierce and abnormal; Not to mention the soldiers, even the lieutenant and the lieutenant general were not his enemies.
One hundred elite iron horsemen, more than half of the kung fu of this meeting was lost, and only more than ten people were still resisting stubbornly, but their faces were also full of fear, obviously afraid of Qin Liang's might.
At this time, Hao Lin's 5,000 pikemen were ready, and after the three-way drum, they marched forward in a neat line.
Dealing with a seriously injured and dying person, it took so much military power, which shows that Hao Lin attaches great importance to Qin Liang, this is already all the troops under his command, and a lieutenant can only have 5,000 troops, and he has already transferred them all.
Hao Lin secretly said in his heart, if he couldn't even catch Qin Liang, then he couldn't do anything
Two Gorges Valley, ten miles to the north.
This place is the place where Jiang Yiyuan ordered Zang Lin to come to ambush the soldiers, and it is also the valley ten miles away that Wei Ning said before, Qin Liang suffered a small loss here a few days ago, and tens of thousands of soldiers buried their bones here.
And today, Jiang Yiyuan set up an ambush here, and his intention was obvious, that is, to cut off Jiang Yun and Qin Liang's retreat.
In other words, even if Jiang Yun and Qin Liang saw through the fire attack plan in the camp and did not choose to enter the camp, then Jiang Yiyuan would have a way to kill the two of them; This 10,000 ambush soldiers is one of the killer features.
But I didn't expect that the two of them were so stupid, even Jiang Yiyuan didn't expect it to be so smooth, and directly burned more than 40,000 iron horses, Jiang Yun died, and Qin Liang's life hung by a thread.
But these 10,000 ambush soldiers were not wasted, Zang Lin robbed and killed all the scouts sent by Wei Ning here, until now, Wei Ning still didn't know what was happening in front of him; There are also 5,000 troops of Yuyue, which were also wiped out by Zang Lin here, and all the war horses and armor were collected and sent to the rear army.
It's noon.
Zang Lin was still hiding above the valley, and he would not withdraw his troops without receiving Jiang Yiyuan's order.
It had been eight hours in ambush, and except for the five thousand iron horsemen who had been wiped out at the beginning, the rest of the time was spent sleeping, and occasionally when Wei Ning's scouts passed by the mountain, he would bend his bow and shoot them over.
"Look, General."
"What, the enemy scouts are here again?"
Zang Lin poked his head out of the trench and asked.
He looked down and saw more than a hundred people at the bottom of the valley, walking from west to north.
"It doesn't seem to be a scout, it's a soldier who came out of Surabaya Pass."
Zang Lin's personal soldier said.
Zang Lin looked at it carefully, thinking about the enemy's intentions.
But at this moment, he found a familiar face, a general who was very prominently dressed and different from the other soldiers.
"It's Wei Ning, it's Wei Ning! How did he get here? ”
Zang Lin was shocked and blurted out.
That's right, among the more than 100 people who came down from the mountain, one of them was the general of Surabaya Pass, Wei Ning.
Wei Ning has been sending scouts out since the fifth watch, but it was noon, and none of the scouts came back, and he knew that the scouts sent out must have been killed.
Qin Huai said in the secret letter that all this was Jiang Yiyuan's strategy, and the reason why the enemy would die so many soldiers was entirely to lure the garrison in Surabaya Pass to be fooled, but in fact, the more than 90,000 corpses were all recruits and weak brigades, not elites.
As soon as he thought of this, Wei Ning felt a chill down his spine, he was really worried about Qin Liang and Jiang Yun, the two of them were already simple-minded, Jiang Yiyuan had set up a heavy ambush, once they were ambushed, would the two of them improvise? Can you break out of the encirclement?
He didn't know any of this, but the only thing he knew for sure was that the 50,000 iron horsemen who went out in the morning were afraid of death and would lose most of them, although these soldiers were not his, but he urgently needed to use these soldiers to defend the city, otherwise the enemy would attack the city again, and the Surabaya Pass would not have enough troops, how to hold it.
In order to find out the situation thoroughly, he had to risk his life and go out of the city to investigate in person.
At this time, when he came to the outskirts of the valley, Wei Ning suddenly stopped.
"General, why don't you leave?"
One of the lieutenants asked.
Wei Ning's face was full of sadness: "Do you still need to ask?" There is an ambush above the valley, and all our scouts have been killed here, so if you want to die, go forward. ”
"The general's words are wrong, I don't think there will be ambushes in this valley."
The lieutenant retorted.
Hearing this, Wei Ning looked sideways and asked, "Why?" ”
The adjutant general pointed to the top of the valley and said, "General, please see, if there is an ambush on the mountain, the birds and birds will not dare to stay here, but this mountain is full of trees and birds, as if there are ambushes?" ”
"Well, you know a little bit about the art of war, what's your name?"
The adjutant general arched his hand and said: "General Yu, the last general Li Ran." ”
"Li Ran? It should be Qin Liang's old general, right? Wei Ning asked.
The adjutant nodded: "Exactly." ”
Wei Ning patted him on the shoulder, looked at the valley and said, "Li Ran, you are more knowledgeable than Qin Liang, but let me tell you, the art of war is dead, and it won't work in some places." ”
"For example, in this valley, it is impossible to tell whether there are ambushes or not, just by the number of birds, you see those trees, they are very luxuriant and the branches are so high, even if there are ambushes below, the birds will not find it, they will stay here too."
Wei Ning's words are the essence of the art of war, and it is also in line with common sense, when he finished speaking, Li Ran suddenly realized, and after thinking about it carefully, this is indeed the case, he secretly said that his art of war was too dead, and at the same time, he also had a trace of admiration for Wei Ning.
In terms of martial arts, Wei Ning is not as good as Qin Liang, but when it comes to resourcefulness, the latter is far behind, and it can really be said that the stars are better than the bright moon.
Li Ran was puzzled: "Then how did the general judge that there were ambushes above the valley?" ”
"Hehe, do you even need to think about it?" Wei Ning said: "This is Jiang Yiyuan's usual trick, this place is guarding the main road, it is very easy to ambush the troops, whether he withdraws his troops or marches, or does not advance or retreat and is stationed in the same place, he will set up an ambush here, not to mention." ”
Speaking of this, he didn't say any more, what he wanted to say was that Jiang Yiyuan was trying to gather Qin Liang and Jiang Yun at the moment, how could he not cut off the road here? If Qin Liang and Jiang Yun escaped, he could ambush in this valley, not to mention Jiang Yiyuan, even if he used troops, he would arrange it like this.
Wei Ning sighed and said, "Forget it, let's go back to the city, lest the eyes of those ambush soldiers on the mountain fall out." ”
If Zang Lin heard this at this time, he would definitely roll his eyes, he was indeed the boss of the eyes now, and he was looking forward to Wei Ning going a little further, and then he would make a good contribution; It's just a pity that Wei Ning is not Qin Liang, he is not so easy to be fooled.
"No."
Li Ran replied, turned his horse's head and followed Wei Ning away, more than 100 people were cavalry, and they disappeared in a blink of an eye.
Zang Lin beat his chest on the mountain, eager to kill it now, but the enemy has already gone away, what can he do? Besides, I can't catch up, so I can only watch people leave.
"This Wei Ning is angry with me!"
"The general doesn't have to be angry, when General Chen comes, his death will come, hehe."
"That's right, I'll clean him up when I go down to Surabaya Pass!"
Zang Lin looked at his own soldiers and said: "Give me an order, within a stick of incense, Chen Fang will lead thousands of soldiers wearing enemy uniforms from here, and when the time comes, they will all go down the mountain with me, pretend to chase and kill, and chase until the Surabaya Pass, and after he deceives the city gate, we will take the Surabaya Pass with all our might." ”
"Order!"
The pro-soldiers were extremely excited, they had been attacking for so long, and they were finally about to win.
