Chapter 206: Capture of Longxi

Horse Wasteland.

The burning bonfires were extinguished one after another, the eastern sky was also exposed to the white of the fish's belly, and there was silence on the wasteland, and all the Liangzhou soldiers were still immersed in sleep.

"Heh~~Yawn~~"

Outside the campsite.

A soldier on the night vigil yawned lazily, put the spear in his hand under his armpit, walked to a bush of wild grass in a few steps, unbuttoned his crotch and peed, and while he was deuriating, the soldier instinctively glanced at the wasteland bathed in the morning light in front of him, and out of the corner of his eye, he faintly saw a dark shadow.

The soldier didn't pay attention at first, but after nearly two breaths, he suddenly rose from the spot.

"Riding ~~ cavalry?"

"It looks like it's my own!"

The soldier felt a chill behind him, and hurriedly summoned several other soldiers who were keeping vigil with him, and the colonel, who was sleeping, was also awakened by the panicked shouts of the soldiers, and quickly turned over and sat up to the outer edge of the camp to inspect what was going on. Through the thin light of dawn, I saw a group of black cavalry approaching silently in front of me.

"What are you still doing in a daze, hurry up and warn!" The little school roared hoarsely, "Blow the trumpet, hurry up and blow the trumpet, hurry~~"

"Woo woo woo~~"

The next moment, the roaring horn roared into the sky, and the sleeping Liangzhou soldiers woke up from their slumber one after another, and hurriedly began to assemble under the scolding of the general, setting up a messy and noisy formation. Under the escort of dozens of cavalry soldiers, Huang Fujian, Guo Hao, Li Ju, Li Xian and others also rushed over.

At this time, the sky was already bright, and the Liangzhou soldiers who had just woken up from their sleep saw the most terrifying scene in their lives! Many of them could never forget what they saw this morning, even for the rest of their lives, and the horrific scene became a nightmare that haunted them for the rest of their lives.

In the thin morning light, five hundred "cavalry" slowly approached.

There are no fluttering flags, no hideous weapons, no shouts of soldiers and the noise of the battlefield, only hideous iron armor wrapped in the corpses of soldiers, and blood pouring down! A full five hundred soldiers, all of whom had their heads cut off and turned into five hundred headless horsemen, lined up in a scattered cavalry formation, riding their horses and marching slowly.

"Oh my God, what the hell?"

"Oh my God, headless cavalry?"

"Damn, it can't be a ghost soldier, right?"

The military formation of the Liangzhou army suddenly began to be chaotic.

Cold fear spread in the hearts of the soldiers like poisonous weeds, and everyone looked at each other in panic.

"Oh hiss~~" Li Ju also gasped and said in a mouthful of air, "This~~ What's going on?" ”

Huang Fujian only felt that it was dark in front of him, and he almost fell headlong, and only after a while did he sigh and said: "General Li Bei has already died in battle, and these five hundred headless cavalry are only afraid that they are the five hundred soldiers who pursued the horse thieves last night." ”

"What?" Li was stunned when he heard this, and immediately shouted, "This is impossible! ”

"Big brother!"

Li Xian beside him had already howled bitterly, and he pounced on the cavalry at the front of the five hundred headless cavalry, Li Xian and Li Bei were brothers, even if Li Bei lost his head, Li Xian could still identify him through the armor on Li Bei's body.

"Woo woo~~"

At this time, the distant horizon suddenly sounded the sound of a continuous horn, and the emperor, who was born in a famous family and had been well educated since childhood, suddenly changed his face and said quickly: "Not good, enemy attack!" Array, circular defensive array, turn the grain and grass carts sideways to form an outer wall, fast~~"

"Woo~~"

"Woo~~"

"Woo~~"

Huang Fujian's voice fell, and the other three directions also sounded at the same time, and when the terrified Liangzhou soldiers turned the grain and grass carts sideways, and the end to end could be lined up into a defensive formation, ghostly cavalry appeared from the four directions of the southeast, south, and northwest at the same time.

However, there are not many people, and there are only more than 100 riders in each direction.

As a result, there was an extremely strange scene on the horse wasteland, less than 500 cavalry were divided into four teams, and they opened a posture of swallowing 10,000 Liangzhou troops in one bite, and crushed them violently from the four directions of southeast, south, northwest, and northwest. And the entire 10,000 Liangzhou troops were huddled together on the wasteland, panicking.

……

Long.

Xu Rong's army of 30,000 finally reached the outside of the city.

The menacing Xu Rong army set up three connected camps outside Longxian County, surrounded the north, east and south directions, leaving only the west gate without a single soldier. Almost as soon as Xu Rong's army set up camp, Zhang Xiu and Wang Hong, who were right-winged, also led their troops to Longxian.

Xu Rong Daying.

Zhang Xiu and Wang Hong clasped their fists at Xu Rong and said, "The last general (lower official) is a general." ”

"Hmm~~" Xu Rongsu gestured to the two of them to be exempt, and said to Zhang Xiu, "General Zhang Xiu, before leaving, Uncle Ling had a message to General Toben to tell him on his behalf." ”

Zhang Xiu hugged his fists and replied respectfully: "The last general will listen to you." ”

Xu Rong said: "Uncle Ling hopes that you can bravely kill the enemy, kill more enemies, and establish immortal feats for the lord and the imperial court." ”

Zhang Xiu said: "The last general will remember his uncle's teachings and dare not forget them from time to time. ”

"Hmm." Xu Rong nodded, and said in a condensed voice, "There is a huge task today, do you dare to take the order?" ”

Zhang Xiu said proudly: "Why don't you dare." ”

Xu Rong said: "In this case, you can take your own headquarters and return to Chang'an, and within a month, Chang'an Sanfu cannot afford to lose." ”

Zhang Xiu's expression was greatly lifted, and he said excitedly: "The last general will not dishonor the general's expectations." ”

"Okay." Xu Rong nodded and said, "The military situation is urgent, so you can set off immediately." ”

"Yes!" Zhang Xiu shouted excitedly, "The last general will retire." ”

After speaking, Zhang Xiu turned around and walked away.

Xu Rong retracted his gaze, turned to Cheng Yin, who was standing on the side, and asked, "General Cheng Yin, is there any news from Longxi?" ”

Cheng Yin said: "The horse exploration report that the horse butcher's army is still stationed outside Lintao City, and there is no sign of returning to Shilong County for the time being, but it has stopped the attack on Lintao City." ”

"Hmph, the horse butcher can really hold his breath, but General Ben wants to see how long he can hold on? Do you really have to wait until General Ben captures Longxian before returning to the division to save himself? Xu Rong said this, suddenly turned to Li Kan on the other side, and asked, "General Li Kan, what news is there from Gongzi Huang?" ”

Li Kangong said: "Back to the general, Gongzi Huang's five thousand elite soldiers have left Didao City and are rushing to Hulu Valley to set up an ambush overnight. ”

"Okay." Xu Rong nodded and said, "This time, General Ben is going to make it difficult for the horse butcher to escape." ”

……

Longxian Chengtou.

Xu Huang put his hands behind his back, standing solemnly on the enemy tower, looking around, in the north, east, and south directions, but he saw that the buildings were stacked on top of each other, and there was no enemy camp outside, only the west gate was empty, and there was not a single soldier guarding it, Xu Huang's mouth suddenly flashed a faint sneer, surrounded by three and one? This heart-attacking technique can only be used to scare and scare Xinding who has never been on the battlefield, how effective can it be for the elite of the state under his command?

"Herald!" Xu Huang straightened his chest suddenly, and said in a condensed voice, "Order the gang to kill pigs and sheep, and let the soldiers of the three armies eat to their heart's content." ”

"Yes."

The herald said yes and took the order.

……

Longxi, outside the city of Lintao.

Although Ma Yue's 2,000 cavalry had left, the armies of Jia Xu and Fang Yue were still stationed outside the city, setting up a long-term siege posture against Lintao.

Late at night, Jia Xu made a big tent in the Chinese army.

In the sound of heavy footsteps, Fang Yue had already entered the big tent proudly and said to Jia Xu: "Military advisor, there is news." ”

"Oh?" Jia Xu Huoran, who was closing his eyes and meditating, opened his eyes and said in a deep voice, "Speak!" ”

Fang Yue said in a deep voice: "Xu Rong's army of 30,000 has surrounded Longxian. ”

"Hmm." Jia Xu nodded, and asked again, "Is there any news about Dong Huang of Di Dao?" ”

Fang Yue said: "Before dark, Dong Huang led a group of elite soldiers out of Di Dao to kill Lintao. ”

"Killing Ben Lintao is here?" A sly smile suddenly flashed at the corner of Jia Xu's mouth, "This kind of little trick is really ~~"

"Huh?" Fang Yue's eyes froze and asked, "Could it be that there is fraud in it?" ”

"Don't talk about it." Jia Xu said indifferently, "Order the generals, there must be no mistakes in acting according to the plan!" ”

Fang Yue clenched his fists and responded: "Obey." ”

……

In the city of Lintao, the official residence of Yunnan Zero.

Dian Ling was having dinner at night, and suddenly a small school rushed in and said quickly: "Dashuai, Longxian County is urgent!" ”

"Oh?" Dian Ling Huo Ran got up and said in a deep voice, "Speak!" ”

The junior colonel gasped and said, "General Xu Rong's 30,000-strong army has entered Hanyang and surrounded Longxian. ”

"Really?" Dian Ling said excitedly, "If General Xu Rong can capture Longxian in one fell swoop, the 20,000 thieves outside Lintao City will be in a dilemma!" The unfavorable situation in Liangzhou can be completely reversed, hahaha~~"

"Newspaper~~"

Dian Ling's voice fell, and another vigil school hurried in.

Dian Ling said loudly: "Speak." ”

The little colonel said: "There is a commotion in the thief barracks, and countless people and horses are leaving the camp to the east, as if they want to return to Shilong County. ”

"Oh, the thieves want to go back to Shilong County?" Dian Ling's face changed, and he said urgently, "Let's go, follow General Ben to see what is going on." ”

Surrounded by the colonel and his own soldiers, Dian Ling hurriedly climbed the enemy tower, and saw the noise of Ma Yuejun's military camp from a distance, and a group of men and horses carried torches out of the gate one after another, and marched eastward, the blazing torches meandered into a fire dragon in the wilderness, and extended to the endless night in the distance.

"Good!" Dian Ling struck hard, "Sure enough, as General Xu Rong expected, the thief soldiers finally couldn't help but return to the division." ”

The junior colonel said: "General, are you sending troops to pursue?" ”

"Chase?" A sneer flashed leisurely in Dian Ling's eyes, and he said in a cruel voice, "Gongzi Huang's five thousand elite soldiers are already waiting for them on the road they must pass!" ”

……

Hulu Valley, located in the only way from Lintao to Hanyang, is named because the valley is shaped like a gourd, and the two ends of the entrance and exit are narrow and wide.

Under the night sky, Dong Huang stood solemnly at the mouth of the gourd valley surrounded by dozens of generals surnamed Dong.

Yesterday, General Xu Rong sent an urgent message of 800 miles to Di Dao, and ordered Dong Huang to lead 5,000 elite troops to set up an ambush on the road to Hanyang in Lintao. Xu Rong is the number one general under Dong Zhuo, although Dong Huang is arrogant, he is convinced of Xu Rong's skills, and he did not hesitate to lead 5,000 elite soldiers to Hulu Valley to set up an ambush.

"Childe, here!"

Dong Huang was waiting impatiently, and the famous generals around him suddenly shouted.

"Huh?"

Dong Huang's heart was shocked, and he looked up urgently, and sure enough, under the dark night sky in front of him, a fire dragon was winding towards him, with chariots and horses whistling, and there were 20,000 cavalry in that formation! Dong Huang's spirits were greatly lifted, Huo Ran looked back, it was pitch black in the gourd valley, but Dong Huang knew very well that the dense forests on both sides of the narrow valley were already full of flammable hay and dry firewood, just waiting for the 20,000 cavalry of the horse butcher to enter the gourd valley, and then a fire would be ignited~~

Dong Huang seemed to see the horse butcher's 20,000 cavalry struggling and wailing in the raging fire, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but float a hideous sneer.

"Uh, no!" When Dong Huang was thinking about beauty, a general suddenly exclaimed, "Why did the thieves stop advancing?" ”

"Huh?"

Dong Huang's heart sank, and he looked at it urgently, and sure enough, he saw that the winding fire dragon had stopped advancing, and at this time, the forward of Ma Yuejun's army was only a hundred steps away from the mouth of the gourd valley! When Dong Huang was in doubt, the horse butcher's army suddenly changed the direction of the march and headed towards the northwest.

"Damn it!"

Dong Huang shook his fist viciously, what was going on? Could it be that the thief army has discovered the flaw? It's impossible, I've been very careful, all the traces inside and outside the valley have been cleaned up, and now it's so dark, how can I find a flaw?

"Uh, this~~ What's going on?"

"Why did the thieves turn back?"

"What a turn back, is to the northwest."

The generals around Dong Huang also whispered.

"Hmm, northwest?" Dong Huang's heart suddenly froze, "Northwest direction!" Isn't the northwest direction the official road to Di Dao, isn't it~~"

Thinking of the terrible place, Dong Huang was suddenly taken aback, and said sharply: "Come on!" ”

The two generals hurriedly came to Dong Huang and said loudly: "What does the son command?" ”

Dong Huang roared: "Immediately send out a scout horse, closely monitor the whereabouts of the thief army, and report back every half an hour, there must be no mistake." ”

"Yes."

The two families will not dare to slack off and take the order.

……

White Rock Valley.

Jia Xu stood solemnly on the side of the valley in the company of Fang Yue, in front of the two, a group of "cavalry" was riding horses and riding past, but it was not a real soldier, but just a straw man with armor and iron helmet, and then tied to the saddle, but every ten people, there was a real cavalry responsible for maintaining the marching sequence of this "huge cavalry".

This "cavalry" set out from the camp outside Lintao City, went around the Hulu Valley, and then turned to the northeast and went straight to Didao. From Lintao to Hanyang, Hulu Valley is a must-pass place, and from Hulu Valley to Didao, Baishi Valley is also a must-pass place! Long before this "cavalry" set off from the camp, Jia Xu and Fang Yue's army died down and quietly came to Baishi Valley under the cover of night.

……

Gourd Valley.

"Report~~" In a terrible long howl, a fast horse rushed to Dong Huang like a whirlwind, "Childe, the thief army has passed through the White Stone Valley and rushed straight to Di Dao." ”

"Damn, cunning horse butcher! Returning to Longxian is a void, and it is his real purpose to transfer the tiger away from the mountain and then take advantage of the weakness to attack Di Dao! We have been tricked~~" Dong Huang gritted his teeth and said, "Send an order, and the whole army will immediately return to Shidi Dao." ”

Dong Huang gave an order, and the 5,000-strong army withdrew from the dense forests on both sides of the gourd valley in a hurry, but the poor 5,000-headed soldiers braved the bites of mosquitoes and flies to ambush in the dense forest for half the night, and finally worked in vain. The five thousand elite soldiers didn't have time to rest, so they hurried back to Shidi Dao under the urging of Dong Huang.

Although Dong Zhuo's hometown is in Lintao, Di Dao is the real foundation of the Dong family!

When the sky was twilight, Dong Huang's five thousand elite soldiers crashed headlong into the White Stone Valley. I can't blame Dong Huang for being careless, because the horse probe returned, and the horse butcher's "20,000 army" has surrounded Di Dao City! Looking at Liangzhou, in addition to the defenders who stayed in Longxian and Hanyang counties, the total number of troops under the horse butcher was only 20,000, and now that the 20,000 troops were all surrounded outside Didao City, Dong Huang was of course no longer worried about being ambushed in Baishi Valley.

But things are often unexpected.

Dong Huang was galloping on his horse, anxious to rush to Di Dao earlier, when he suddenly heard a thunderous roar outside the valley, and looked up in shock, only to see a martial artist suddenly turn out of the valley, with an iron helmet and iron armor, holding a steel gun, majestically blocking the way of the army.

"Hanoi Fang Yue is here, and the thief will come and die!"

"Kill, kill, kill~~"

The general's shouts did not fall, and the mountains on both sides suddenly sounded the screams of landslides and earth cracks, and suddenly, the endless soldiers had come out of the dense forests on both sides of the valley like black ants, and the longbows had been pulled into a full moon, and the wolf's tooth arrows had been on the strings, and the sharp arrow clusters were flashing in the morning light with a cold cold~~

"Instigation~~"

The next moment, the dense arrows like rain had already poured down from the mountains, and before the five thousand elite soldiers of the Dong family could recover from the shock, a large number of them had already fallen. Dong Huang flew two wolf's tooth arrows with a sword, and shouted hoarsely: "Don't panic, column a conical charge formation, and assault at the valley mouth!" Assault!! Assault!!! ”

Led by dozens of family members, Dong Huang finally gathered hundreds of elite soldiers around him, which were arranged in a cone-shaped charging formation, and rushed towards the valley mouth, Baishi Valley valley mouth, Fang Yue's prancing horse horizontal spear, like a hard stone sculpture, stood indifferently in the morning light, before that, Fang Yue flicked the steel gun in his hand into the air, and a group of black cavalry had already appeared behind him.

Although the number of cavalry in this group is small, they are all heavily armored iron cavalry wrapped in dark iron armor!

Fang Yue pulled the steel spear in his hand forward, and the more than 100 heavily armored iron cavalry launched a landslide-like counter-assault against Dong Huang's hundreds of elite soldiers!

On the White Rock Mountain.

Jia Xu stroked his willow whiskers, and his eyes had already crossed the valley of endless fighting, and cast his eyes on Di Dao, who was farther away. 20,000 troops ambushed 5,000 enemy troops, and with their minds unprepared, there was no suspense in this battle! Next, it is time to take advantage of the situation to capture Longxi, I don't know what kind of expression Xu Rong will have on his face after hearing about the fall of Longxi?

Thinking of this, the corners of Jia Xu's mouth couldn't help but have a wicked smile.

On the battlefield, Xu Rong can be called a generation of famous generals, but if he wants to fight wits with Jia Xu, it is far behind.

……

Long.

As soon as the day dawned, the drums of war sounded outside the city, and the drums were not stopped, followed by the long sound of trumpets rushing into the sky. In the thin morning light, a team of iron armor surged out from the gate and entered the outside of Longxian County to set up a formation. The main formation of the Chinese army, under the banner of hunting and wandering, Xu Rong stood on a horse surrounded by dozens of generals.

At the head of Longxian County, Xu Huang pressed the battlements with his hand, the majestic figure stood like a mountain, looking at the black and oppressive military array outside the city, Xu Huang's dark eyes revealed a mountain-like solemnity, Xu Rong, Longxian is your burial place, even if you attack with 100,000 heroes, you will also be taught to break your bones under the strong wall!

……

White Rock Valley.

"Boom!"

A violent sound of gold and iron sounded, the long sword in Dong Huang's hand had been picked up by Fang Yue, Dong Ying rode back again and again, and indescribable fear flashed in his eyes, is he really going to die here today? It's really unwilling, all of a sudden, Dong Huang's mind swept past the nineteen beautiful wives and concubines in the family, especially the nineteenth concubine in Xinna, and it hasn't been three days since he grabbed the door, he only twice, and he was really reluctant~~

"Hah!"

Fang Yue shouted, urging the horse to gallop forward, Dong Huang only felt that the cold light flashed in front of him, and the next moment a mountain-like force had hit his back fiercely, Dong Huang suddenly felt a suffocation in his chest, and he couldn't breathe anymore, and the panicked war horse galloped forward lifelessly, and pulled Dong Huang off the horse.

Two soldiers rushed up and pinned Dong Huang to the ground.

At this time, the sound of thunderous hooves sounded from the other end of the White Rock Valley, and a thousand wolf horsemen led by Jutu launched an overwhelming charge from the exit of the other end to the remnants of the defeated soldiers in the valley.

The battle of White Rock Valley has finally settled.

……

At noon, the east gate of Didao.

Dong Huang appeared outside the city gate surrounded by dozens of "personal soldiers", but what puzzled the soldiers on the city tower was that Gongzi Huang actually rode parallel with a general, and in normal times, the general had to be skinned by Gongzi Huang! Of course, the defenders on the city tower couldn't see it, Fang Yue was holding a sharp dagger in his hand on Dong Huang's waist.

"Quickly lower the drawbridge and open the city gates!" Dong Huang shouted, "Didn't you see this son go back to the city?" ”

Although the soldiers on the city tower felt strange, they did not dare to slack off, hurriedly put down the drawbridge, opened the city gate, when the heavy city gate suddenly opened, dozens of "pro-soldiers" gathered around Dong Huang suddenly rushed across the drawbridge, just from the city gate of the dozen or so Liangzhou soldiers did not understand what was going on, they were cut to the ground by a random knife.

Immediately afterwards, a black-pressed cavalry also appeared on the horizon in the distance, sweeping towards Di Dao City.

"Not good, enemy attack, enemy attack!" The little colonel on the city tower shouted bitterly, "Close the city gate, close the city gate quickly, and put away the drawbridge!" ”

"Shoot these rebels with arrows!"

"Don't move, no one is allowed to move!" Fang Yue shouted, moved the sharp dagger to the side of Dong Huang's neck, and said sharply, "If anyone dares to move, General Ben will kill this guy with one sword!" ”

Dong Huang's soul was all rising, and he hissed and shouted: "You are deaf, don't move!" Do you dare not listen to my son's words? ”
