Chapter 114: Perceive
He never thought that these miscellaneous armies in his eyes could actually block the attack of his thousand-strong army, it was a great shame, and what made him even more annoyed, these remnants of the army on the mountain were only a few hundred people, but it was these waste-like soldiers who actually blocked his attack for nearly half an hour, and even many soldiers in the forward battalion died tragically under the boulders.
Now this wall of fire blocked the way of Zhao Xin's army again, and the smoke that had trapped Jiang Baiyan for a long time just now turned to attack Zhao Xin's army, but in a moment, many soldiers were also stunned by suffocation, and with it, the chaotic black armor army ruthlessly trampled on their robes, comrades-in-arms, because at this time they were also the same as Jiang Baiyan in Fangcai, they couldn't see anything.
Zhao Xin coughed heavily, then killed a few soldiers who had destroyed the formation because of the chaos, and ordered the soldiers to rush through the wall of fire.
As soon as he walked over, the fire immediately ignited the military uniform, and in the screams, he kept rolling on the ground, but the fire could not be extinguished at all, Jiang Baiyan ordered the people in the rear camp to pour a lot of vegetable oil here when they left.
"Boom"
The fire suddenly became even bigger, and instead of being smoked to death, these soldiers began to rush towards the wall of fire with a mortal heart, but some of them slowed down, and before they could reach the front of the wall of fire, they were tripped by the people who rushed to the front, and then fell into the crowd, and gradually surrounded by the fire.
After Zhao Xin walked out of the wall of fire, Jiang Baiyan and the soldiers of the warrior battalion had already walked out of the distance, and the horizontal flesh on Zhao Xinqi's face was trembling, and at this time, the beard at the corner of his mouth was burned off a lot by the fire, and his face was even more charred.
Looking at Jiang Baiyan's army that had disappeared far away, Zhao Xinxin's hatred was like this group of mountains, endless.
"Archers, shoot me, shoot at them, kill!"
Zhao Xin was furious, and hurriedly ordered his bow battalion to shoot rounds of arrows at Jiang Baiyan who was far away, but the range of arrows was also limited, and few bows and arrows could reach Jiang Baiyan.
Hearing the sound behind him, Jiang Baiyan was also startled, and when he looked back, he saw dozens of arrows inserted in the grass a few zhang away, Jiang Baiyan was also happy, he stood there proudly, and shouted loudly while waving his hand: "Send me a thousand miles, there will be a farewell, goodbye, goodbye!" ”
The soldiers of the Yongzi battalion in the back also turned their heads and waved their hands pretendedly, as if they were very reluctant, if those who didn't know took a look, they thought that it was really the brother troops who were doing a farewell party!
Zhao Xin, who was standing on the top of the mountain, could naturally see it clearly, although it was late at night, but Jiang Baiyan's shameful face had already been engraved in Zhao Xin's bones, his heart was tumbling, trying to calm down, but when he saw the soldiers of the Yongzi battalion who had escaped, he was dizzy, and he couldn't hold on anymore, and then a mouthful of blood burst out, if it weren't for the surrounding guards to support him, he would definitely fall to the ground.
"Hahaha'
Seeing that the soldiers under his command also followed suit, Jiang Baiyan's heart was also slightly relaxed, and the tragic sadness just now faded a little, he stood there with a golden knife, just wanted to brush his beard, but found that most of the beard at the corner of his mouth was also burned, and then the corner of his mouth was also twitched.
Hearing the ridicule of the defeated generals of the remnants of the mountain army, the black armor army on the mountain felt sincerely humiliated, and as soon as Zhao Xin passed over, he heard the loud ridicule, and he was furious, and then fainted again
Seeing that there was also chaos on the mountain, Jiang Baiyan no longer lingered, and immediately went to look for traces of the wounded soldiers and civilians with the remaining 200 people of the Yongzi battalion.
Hearing Ma Tai explain the ins and outs of the matter in detail, Liu Fa was relieved. In the past few days, I am worried about Jiang Baiyan's situation, the food and grass in the army are exhausted, coupled with the cold disease invading the body, Liu Fa's health is very bad, and he is restless.
In fact, there is no way to do this, the current army, it seems to be a group of harmony, but in fact, it is not, the "sun and moon" in Qin Tianzhao's hands have been dormant in the dark, as soon as there is a wind and grass, Qin Tianzhao will definitely get the news first, and now the army is already running out of food and grass, and morale is low. It would not be wise to investigate this matter strictly.
Originally, if there was no news, Liu Fa thought about taking his brothers to Guangping Straight Road first, whether it was successful or not, and never returned to Gushan, Qin Tianzhao was in the dark, and he was in the light, this passivity made Liu Fa feel as heavy as carrying a mountain.
Ma Tai's return to the camp, only Liu Fa and a few secret sentinels knew, and Liu Fa did not tell his brothers, but only discussed how to meet Jiang Baiyan, after all, there is still a lot of grain and grass, in this barbarian southern prison, it is very dangerous, if you are targeted, you can only have no bones.
Now Jiang Baiyan did not have many soldiers around him who could fight, and that night, nearly half of the soldiers of the Yongzi battalion were killed or wounded, and the task of escorting grain and grass and wounded soldiers could not be done by the people.
The charcoal in the pot was burning very vigorously, and several people in the big tent were ruddy, it was Liu Fa, the cold sweat on his body had also gone a lot, and the body guard was a little more relaxed, Liu Fa sat on the handsome chair, and Xin and a few people were thinking about Jiang Baiyan.
"Although Na Matai said that he was a soldier of the Zhongzi Battalion, I thought it was necessary to check it again, and sent scouts to carefully investigate the situation in the area of Iron Mountain!" Xin He held the teacup, his face as silent as water.
Qing Yunfei couldn't hear these things the most, and he felt that his head was big for a while, the outside of the tent was cold, and the warm fire in the tent made him drowsy, so he sat aside and dozed off continuously.
Liu Fa glanced at Qing Yunfei, a smile on the corner of his mouth, and then ignored Qing Yunfei, looked at Xin He and said: "You can arrange this matter, I have more important things to tell you!" ”
Xin He nodded, and then sat a little closer, it was raining outside the big tent, although it was a lot smaller, but there was still some gloomy and bleak taste.
"Boom, boom, click!"
The thunder exploded in the sky, and a thunderbolt of a sunny sky crossed the sky, as if coming from the Nine Shadows, with boundless killing intent, the cold front was eroded by the rain, and did not give birth to a little rust spots, but shone more black cold in the wind.
"Boom, Boom"
Horses' hooves fluttered, trampling on a ground of mud, dozens of knights galloped wildly in the mountains, rain poured on them, they wore helmets, just looked coldly ahead, and kept moving in one direction.
Liu Fa did not change the plan, the military order of the north, Shangguangping Straight Road has been issued to the most basic level, and the grain and grass can only barely support a full meal, but Liu Fa did not save a little food.
"Brothers, you don't need to save grain and grass, you will eat openly, we will never be short of grain and grass, tomorrow we will eat fresh!"
Liu Fa took the rice bowl and walked to the army, talking and laughing with the soldiers, without a trace of worry, only unscrupulous pleasure.
After hearing Liu Fa's words, the soldiers under his command were also arrogant, and they didn't think about anything anymore, they would go to Guangping Straight Road tomorrow, how could there be a lack of food and grass along the way?
Xin He also sighed slightly when he saw Liu Fa's appearance, Liu Fa should be a natural commander, today a medical officer picked up medicinal materials and fried a lot, after taking it, Liu Fa's face was obviously much better.
After dinner, as calm as before, the patrol camp of the patrol camp, the rest of the rest, the dark sentry has long been lurking around the camp of the lonely mountain.
The night is getting deeper, the moon is not so bright, the air is filled with the smell of dampness and decay, and there is even a hint of murder and conspiracy?
Suddenly the rain was heavy again, the thunder roared, the clouds were thick, and the darkness of the night concealed something darker and more invisible
On the lonely mountain, in a dense mountain forest, there are faint traces of being trampled in the grass, and some vegetation has been stepped on and broken, but no one cares, as these traces get farther and farther away, there are some footprints of different shades on the other side of the lonely mountain.
"Goo-goo-goo"
A wild goose fluttered its wings, and then slowly disappeared into the air, and a figure watched the wild goose go away, and then disappeared into the night.
"Whoosh"
With a soft sound, the wild goose had fallen from the sky and fell to the ground fiercely, its wings constantly flapping in the mud, without the slightest effect, only a sad cry.
Another person slowly walked out in the dark, the footprints strode to the ground, leaving deep footprints, he held a hard bow in his hand, the corners of his mouth were full of mockery, not Han Ju and who, he picked up the arrow feathers inserted in the wild goose's body, and then groped on the feet of the wild goose, and sure enough, under a ring, there was a small note.
He sneered: "It's a little interesting, I know that carrier pigeons can't fly out, and in this season, you can still get wild geese" took out the note, he glanced at it, the killing intent on his face was undisguised, he just pinched it in his hand, and then his footsteps moved again.
After just walking a few steps, he stopped again, and said without looking back: "Keep staring, there must be no sloppiness!" Then he slowly disappeared in the darkness.
"Streaming"
The rain was loud again, but other than that, it was quiet, and there was not a single sound.
When Hanju walked away, after a long time, another figure appeared here, he also released a wild goose, watched the wild goose fly away, and slowly left
This time, the wild goose flew out, it flew across the sky, fluttering its wings, it seemed to be a little weak, this time it was not shot down, but was netted down, and someone took out the note, saw the handwriting on it clearly, and then released it again, the rain was a little heavy, this wild goose can fly, it is already extremely good.
This time, behind the disappeared figure, there was another shallow footprint, and no one touched him, but everything had to come to a point.
"Tomorrow, Guangping will cut off the grain straight, and the willow cutting seems to have a dark disease."
Liu Fa read it slowly, then smiled, a cold light shone in his eyes, sighed again, and put the note on the case.
Han Ju stood aside, short and full of murderous intent, he waited for Liu Fa's order to find out the secret agents in this army and break them into pieces.
Qing Yunfei and Xin He sat in the tent, also frowning deeply, the most ugly face at this time was Qing Yunfei, he held back his anger, and did not dare to shout, so as not to be noticed by someone who cares, there is really someone in this camp to pass on information.
The last time he hadn't improvised himself, his brothers, including himself, might have been killed by this hidden mongrel in the army, he clenched his fists, and his joints were even more white and terrifying.
Liu Fa walked around, read the note again, and then put it down again, and finally Liu Fa finally smiled happily, he threw the note into the fire, and in an instant, the note turned into ashes, and the firelight printed Liu Fa's face, which looked particularly mysterious and incomprehensible.
"What, on the lonely mountain is the general's camp, and the general is still there?"
Jiang Baiyan stood up in surprise, because he got up too violently, and he was a little dizzy just when he stood up.
"Yes, General Jiang, a soldier from the Yongzi Battalion named Ma Tai came to the big camp, saying that he was from Tieshan, and we will rush over immediately!"
The scouts in Liu Fa's army stood in front of Jiang Baiyan, and their faces were also full of excitement.
Jiang Baiyan laughed, then slapped the scout's back again, and said happily: "Okay, okay, general, are they okay?" Thinking of his own experience that night, Jiang Baiyan suddenly thought of something, and then his face became serious.
The scout shook his head and said, "General Jiang, this is a secret letter from the general!" As he spoke, he carefully pulled out a letter from his bosom.
There was no one else in the tent, Jiang Baiyan saw the letter, and immediately opened it, after seeing the content of the letter, his face was also very strange, he didn't say anything, just ordered his subordinates to take these scouts down to rest first.
Jiang Baiyan sighed, and then threw the letter into the fire, there was no problem with the letter, it was written by Liu Fan himself, there were enemy spies in the army, although he didn't notice it, but the strange events of that night still made Jiang Baiyan pay more attention.
He has been in the army for so many years, he never believes in coincidences and the like, that night when he saw those black-armored sergeants and soldiers in the southern prison, Jiang Baiyan still didn't understand anything, but he didn't directly contact here, seeing Liu Fade's letter, Jiang Baiyan suddenly realized, the people he sent out in the past few days are absolutely trustworthy people, and the rest of the people must not go out of the Iron Mountain without orders, and the same, there is no change here.
Fortunately, he was not reckless, if one or two fish slipped through the net were mixed out, this iron mountain would really become a place for him to bury his bones.
After seeing Liu Fa's letter, Jiang Baiyan became more cautious, the distance between Gushan and Tieshan was still very far, and Jiang Baiyan did not dare to act rashly, but silently waited for the arrival of Liu Fa's army according to the meaning of Liu Fa's letter.
The dark clouds are fading away, it seems to be a sunny day, and the weather is cool for a good autumn!
"Brethren, are you hungry?"
Today, Liu Fa looks more energetic, standing on the point platform, Liu Fa has a strong voice, strong and powerful, early in the morning, Liu Fa will take the soldiers to Guangping Straight.
"Hungry, starving us!"
The soldiers stood neatly on the school grounds, answering honestly, sounding as rude as a group of hungry farmers for a long time, shouting and scolding their mothers.
Liu Fa raised his head to the sky and roared, drew out his long knife, and pointed into the distance: "Then let's go forage for food, pull out!" ”
The army moved, like a winding black dragon, rushing towards the north, with boundless killing intent and malice. Liu Fa personally led the team, and he had a faint premonition that he might meet some people today, and maybe he would understand something.
Although he chose to go to Guangping Straight, Liu Fa didn't intend to fight straight through like this, there were so many people under him, six hundred sets of barbarian uniforms were worn on almost all the soldiers, and only a dozen or so people were still wearing the military uniforms of the Han army, but these didn't matter.
"How many puffs flew out?" Liu Fa was riding on a horse, his eyes looking straight ahead, but there was a little sadness in his eyes. He knew that Qin Tianzhao would definitely make a big move, and although the news was released, there was no way to guess what Qin Tianzhao would do.
Han Ju was wearing a barbarian military uniform, and he walked a little strongly, he led the horse for Liu Fa, and whispered in a voice that only Liu Fa could hear: "A total of three pulls flew out, all of which are the same content, but we intercepted one before, so we should only fly out of two pulls." ”
In case others saw the shape of his lips, Han Ju also covered his nose very carefully, but kept sneezing, because now Liu Fa already knew who it was, but Liu Fa was not sure if there was anyone else, so he kept ordering people to track down.
Liu Fa thought about it for a long time, he really wanted to gamble with Qin Tianzhao to see who killed the deer, but looking at the more than 600 brothers under his command, Liu Fa didn't hesitate a little, these brothers all rolled over from the knife mountain with him, they are all good men, if it is folded in Qin Tianzhao's hands like this, he is really unwilling, forget it, don't think about this, go to Guangping Straight Road first to see the situation!
At this time, the southern section of the Guangping Straight Road, that is, the section close to Chongcheng, has been constantly marching here, it seems, the next step, the barbarians must be planning to attack Chongcheng, Chongcheng only has one defender, but the barbarians on this Guangping Straight Road are not only three guards.
"Boom, Boom"
The carriages and horses were constantly crushed on this road, and a barbarian baggage team was slowly moving forward here, many of them escorting the baggage were Han Chinese, but they all had the mark of slaves on their foreheads, and their personalities were ruthlessly trampled by this group of barbarians.
The iron cavalry is passing by here, they are patrolling the team, Liu Fa with the people and horses on the top of the mountain to see clearly, every twenty miles there is a team of people and horses, it seems that it is not easy to start on this road, if it is a strong attack, there is no chance of winning the decision, in case of delay, or be entangled by these barbarians, but a stick of incense time, there will be barbarians on the north and south sides to rush over, on this straight road, the speed of the barbarians is really not slow.
"What to do, any ideas?" Liu Fa's eyes narrowed, touched the stubble at the corner of his mouth, and said in a low voice.
Xin He shook his head, just said that it was not good to outwit, although Qing Yunfei was unwilling, but he knew that Xin He was telling the truth, although he glanced at his mouth slightly, but he still thought it was true in his heart.
The weather was a little gloomy, and although the rain had stopped, there were still occasional north winds in the sky, but now the north wind seemed to be a little cold, because the sky was now gathering dark clouds, and it seemed that something was about to rain heavily.
