After the decision of Marshal Yang and the six brigade commanders in the evening, the next morning, when the sky was slightly bright, the soldiers got up from the camp, lit a fire to cook, and prepared to send out troops.

This time it can be said that all the soldiers who can be mobilized in Yunzhong City have been mobilized, Li Feng has already ordered that this time the bandits in Lushan must be captured and a major tumor in the south of Yunzhong County must be dug up.

After eating, the camp was surprisingly quiet, the soldiers who went out this time were carefully selected by Li Feng, and most of the soldiers had almost participated in several battles, so whether it was discipline or mentality, they were quite outstanding.

"Follow me later, don't be impulsive, the consequences of reckless action are very serious, just wait for Master Yang's orders." Zhao Fan turned his head and glanced at Li Mu beside him, and admonished.

After all, the former is young, and this time he went out with the army, he had to protect him for Li Feng and Li Bingbing.

"yes, I know." Li Mu smiled at Zhao Fan and said.

Zhao Fan pursed his lips slightly, his hand tightened, and a fine iron spear shook in his hand with the light of the cold. It's late summer and early autumn, and it's a cool time to be in the mountains and forests of the north, but it's a good weather for war.

"The 5th and 6th Brigades stayed to guard the camp, and the other soldiers, follow me!" Yang Shishuai stood at the forefront, a pair of tiger eyes swept over everyone, dignified and mighty, and then he pointed at the sky and shouted coldly.

Hearing this, everyone raised their weapons and responded with a bang, and the sound pierced into the sky, echoing near Lushan, as if they were provoking the thieves on the mountain.

"Those dog officers and soldiers are ready to attack, military advisor, what can you do?" On the top of Lushan, two men and a woman were looking at the officers and soldiers below the mountain, and the person in the center was the tall Bu Xu, who turned his head and said to another man beside him.

This man is quite ordinary, thin and thin, only a pair of narrow eyes, and the essence revealed in the occasional flickering will make people have a kind of psychology of facing up. This person is Bu Xu's military advisor, Chen Yu.

"Lord of the village, you see, they have a total of 3,000 people, but they left 1,000 people to stay in the camp, with these two thousand alone, what are you afraid of?" Chen Yu smiled slightly, and then said: "Our cottage faces three cliffs, and they can only launch a strong attack, but the brothers in our village, in the jungle, are all good players, and it is not a problem at all to fight three enemies with one." ”

"If this is the case, what is Chen Yujun going to do?" Qin Meiren smiled coquettishly and asked.

"All I need to do is bring five hundred brethren and enough bows and arrows to go down, and if I can't destroy them, I can give them a great suffering." Chen Yu looked at the bottom of the mountain, and a sneer crossed the corner of his mouth.

At this moment, Master Yang had already led 2,000 soldiers up the mountain, with weapons in their hands, straddled longbows, and wolf's tooth arrows on their backs, all the way to the top of the mountain.

This is the territory of the bandits, and most of the soldiers in Yunzhong County are handing over with the Hu people on the grassland, but they are not very familiar with this dense forest, and Yang Shishuai naturally knows this, so his face is also a little heavy.

The soldiers of the Nine Pawns practiced in Yishan for several days, and although the recruits were far less familiar with the mountain than the bandits in Lushan, they still had some experience. Zhao Fan discussed with Yang Shishuai for a while, and then sent the two soldiers of the Nine Pawns to check in front to see if there was an ambush or something.

The twenty soldiers of Liangshi were hunter veterans who followed Zhao Fan from Xuzhuang, so they were very familiar with the situation on the mountain, and they were not inferior to those bandits at all.

As the army advanced, the sun slowly rose, and the warm light shone on the people, making them feel refreshed, and when the army was halfway up the mountain, several soldiers who had just been sent out to reconnoiter ran back.

"Chief, there is something strange on the hill in front of you, there seem to be a lot of figures floating." A soldier pointed to a high ground not far away and preached.

Hearing this, Zhao Fan also cheered up, he stared at it, and saw that not far in front of him was in the upper right, where there was a raised piece of flat land, in which the weeds were dense and the trees were overgrown, and he couldn't see the situation in it.

"What about the other soldiers?" Zhao Fan looked at the soldiers and said.

"They're still watching from the trees in front of them, and they'll be back shortly if they find anything new."

Hearing this, Zhao Fan also nodded, he turned his gaze to Yang Shishuai beside him, the former also listened to the conversation between the two just now, he waved his hand towards the army behind him, and said, "Stop advancing, everyone prepare weapons, beware of the sneak attack of the bandits." ”

The soldiers reacted extremely quickly, clenching their bows and arrows in their hands and facing them far away.

"Master Shishuai, do you want to use rockets, if they hide in the grass, they can just burn them with a fire." Li Mu suddenly proposed.

Hearing this, Zhao Fan immediately objected: "No, now the weather is dry and dry, once it burns, I'm afraid that the trees on the entire mountain will be burned down, and the thieves' cottage has opened a firebreak, and it can't burn them, if it's just to deal with those bandits hiding in the grass, burn all these trees, I'm afraid the gains outweigh the losses." ”

Yang Shishuai also nodded: "These trees have a great effect on the nearby villagers and our army, and they can't be easily destroyed." ”

Seeing this, Li Mu also nodded. I had to give up.

"Those soldiers have spotted us, let's shoot arrows together!" In the grass on the high ground, Chen Yu saw through the gaps in the weeds, and when he saw the officers and soldiers looking like they were waiting for battle, he immediately ordered.

"Whoosh......" Hundreds of arrow feathers let out a piercing whistling sound, piercing at the officers and soldiers at a rapid pace.

"Everyone be careful, prepare to fight back." Yang Shishuai shouted loudly, all the soldiers had already prepared, so they did not cause much panic, they each found a hiding spot, and after this wave of arrows rained by, they immediately bent their bows and arrows and shot towards the grass.

The rain of arrows like a dense net continued to fly around this area, and at the same time, the sound of "poof" arrows also sounded in everyone's ears.

Seeing that the soldiers were constantly being hit by arrows, Yang Shishuai's eyes also turned red, and he hoarsely shouted: "Soldiers of the first brigade, rush up with heavy shields for me and seize that high ground!" ”

"No!"

Hearing this, the soldiers of the first brigade also responded with a bang.

The bandits occupied the high ground, and there was the cover of grass and trees, not only did the casualties on the side not heavy, but also dealt a great blow to the soldiers of Yunzhong County, and Yang Shishuai knew that in order to defeat this gang of bandits, he had to occupy that high ground.

"Everyone follow me to shoot arrows and cover the Second Brigade." Zhao Fan held a horned bow in his hand, aimed at a bandit above, and shouted loudly.

"Whoosh!"

The voice broke through the air, and the bandit fell in response.

The soldiers below also obeyed Zhao Fan's orders, and put the arrows dead without a pause, and the rain of arrows continued to stab at the bandits.

"Throw rocks and wood down for me to stop the soldiers from rushing up the mountain." Chen Yu looked at the hundreds of soldiers of the Second Brigade, moved over under the protection of the heavy shield, and immediately gave an order, and took the lead in pushing down a boulder beside him.

"Bang bang bang!"

Dozens of large stones rolled down from above, killing many soldiers of the Second Brigade in an instant, and the speed of advance was also hindered.

However, the casualties of the bandits were also heavy, after all, the troops of Cloud City were three or four times more than them, and these thousands of bows and arrows were endless, and shooting at them completely lifeless also brought them great casualties.

Seeing that many brothers beside him were hit by arrows, and the soldiers of Yunzhong County were still releasing arrows, Chen Yu's face also became ugly, he sneered, and shouted in a low voice: "Retreat!" ”

Hearing this, the bandits immediately stopped attacking, and one by one, with the help of the cover of grass and trees, they ran towards the mountain extremely quickly, and disappeared in a blink of an eye.

"The bandits have run away, do you want to pursue?" Zhao Fan took a step forward, came to Yang Shishuaisheng, and asked.

Yang Shishuai clenched the hilt of the sword, his face was extremely gloomy, he waved his hand, and said hoarsely: "You don't have to chase, you can't catch up if you want to chase, and I'm worried that they have set up an ambush on the mountain." ”

Hearing this, Zhao Fan also nodded and fell silent.

"Clean up the battlefield, bring me all the bows and arrows that can be used on the ground, and bury the corpses on the spot." Master Yang gave an order and got busy with all the soldiers, but his face didn't look very good.

In this confrontation, both sides suffered damage, although in the end, the bandits were defeated and the first to retreat, it seemed that the army on the side of Yunzhong County won, but in terms of casualties alone, it was undoubtedly greater on the side of Yunzhong County.

The number of casualties was more than hundreds, of course, most of them were injured, and the number of deaths was still small, after all, the number of opponents was small, and there was the cover of trees, unless it was extremely bad luck and just hit the vital point.

Many bows and arrows were still usable on the ground, and the soldiers picked them up one after another, leaving no resources for the bandits.

"Go down the mountain, go back to camp." Yang Shishuai glanced at the stockade on the hill, gritted his teeth, and immediately waved his hand and strode down the mountain.
