"General, there are still seventy miles from the ruins of Taogu."

The army was galloping, and there was still a flat grassland ahead, and the soldiers who were familiar with the terrain around them suddenly reported loudly to Zhi Yuxun.

"Huh~~~" Zhe Yuxun reined in his horse violently and turned his head to look at Zhe Ziyu. Excerpt Ziyu glanced ahead, although she couldn't see anything, her expression was very complicated, but she only hesitated for a moment, then she took the reins of her horse, took the lead to the left, and galloped away.

Zhi Yuxun sighed, rode his horse to follow, and the entire army suddenly changed its course.

Excerpt Ziyu was eighty percent sure that Li Guangrui did not flee in a hurry, and he was setting up a game on the bank of the Wuding River, trying to turn defeat into victory. Now she raided Moyunling and burned Li Guangrui's grain and grass, just because this was the most important part of thwarting Li Guangrui's poisonous plan. She is not a god, and she doesn't know what method to use to rescue Yang Hao, she only knows that the right thing to do now is to seize the opportunity and turn defeat into victory.

On the battlefield, everyone is a chess piece at the mercy of the overall victory, if possible, she would rather replace her body and make the chess piece on behalf of Yang Hao, but now Yang Hao is that chess piece, and it is just a death sentence to save him directly, destroying the enemy's grain and grass is not a panacea to save Yang Hao, but the key to defeating Li Guangrui, she can only make this choice:

"Before we get the news that our reinforcements have arrived, Yang Hao still has the role of a decoy, and Li Guangrui will not attack him. If Li Guangrui wants to grasp our movements, it will take at least two hours, and when he transfers his troops and horses out of the ambush site and waives his troops around the mountains to rescue, it will take another hour, and this time is the key to our army's victory. After the grain and grass are burned, maybe a day, maybe two days, not more than three days at most, Lee Kuang-rui's army will have to collapse, and then it will be time for us to counterattack!

If Luo Dong'er could be asked to dispatch enough men and horses to cooperate, we would have attacked Moyunling, and they would have attacked the ruins of Taogu, which would have been more appropriate, but Li Guangrui would definitely send someone to monitor the movements in our camp, we have spare strength, he has so many manpower, just in case, he will definitely not bring them all out, so if Yang Hao is all swallowed, Yinzhou will also be in danger. Now the situation, after Li Guangrui was led away by us, only the 20,000 soldiers and horses besieging the city were left in the ruins of Taogu, this was Yang Hao's only chance to break through, and whether he could succeed or not was to resign himself to fate. God, you're the only one who can help him now. ”

Excerpt Ziyu shouted in her heart, others may be anxious, or worried, but no one has endured endless suffering like she is now, her heart is more bitter than Huang Lian, but who can she confide in? She only does what she has to do and doesn't need others to understand.

She is an excerpt of Ziyu, a proud excerpt of Ziyu, even if her heart is as bitter as a yellow lotus, even if she suffers all the grievances, even if she is splashed with sewage by everyone in the world, she will not lower her arrogant head, showing a weak posture of helplessness and sorrow in front of people.

※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※ Lee Guangrui had already gathered all the sentry posts, and he didn't want to surprise the snake and ruin his plan because of a small mistake.

He waited anxiously, waiting for the men of the Emperor to pounce headlong into the trap he had already dug. These days, he has been waiting in a hurry, he has already decided to wait for another day, if the rest of Zhen Yuxun and Yang Hao still do not go to help, he will first destroy the trapped remnants of Yang Hao, and then attack Zhen Yuxun with all his might. If the Fold Yuxun Department is defeated, it will continue to fight back, and take Yinzhou first, if Fold Yuxun and Yang Hao's rest of the troops join forces and retreat to Yinzhou, then they will gallop back to Xiazhou.

The victory of eliminating Yang Hao's department can temporarily gather the morale of the army, disintegrate the pursuit of the three feudatories, and return to Xiazhou safely, strategically speaking, this is the key to his new control of the overall situation, to the details, only by returning to Xiazhou, the morale of the army can be used, and the whole army is looking forward to returning to his hometown, at that time, he will definitely be able to recapture Xiazhou, thirty years of hard work, this is still certain.

Of course, this is just his worst plan, Zhi Yuxun can't hold his breath anymore, and he is about to be swallowed by him in one bite, kill Yang Hao, kill Zhen Yuxun, wave his army to Camel Ridge, and then eat Yang Chongxun, Yinzhou is at his fingertips, Yang Hao is destroyed, and the vitality of the two states of Linfu is greatly damaged, he is not only still the well-deserved king of the northwest, but also ...... He will be more powerful than ever, and his power will be as high as ever.

"Hehehehe......" Thinking of the smugness, Li Guangrui couldn't help laughing, and at this moment, Zhang Chongwei rushed in in a panic and almost fell to the ground: "My lord, my lord, it's not good!" It's a big deal! ”

"Huh?"

Li Guangrui's smile froze on his face, and the fat on his face was still rippling with the afterglow of a smile: "What's the big deal?" ”

Yang Hao...... Yang Hao! Yang Hao, who was trapped in the ruins of Taogu, disappeared, and all his people disappeared. ”

Li Guangrui pounced on him like a human bear and grabbed him by the collar: "What do you say? Yang Hao disappeared? How could a few thousand people disappear? You said! ”

Zhang Chongwei said tremblingly: "It belongs to ...... The subordinates didn't know that before midnight yesterday, they could still see someone holding a torch on the other side. However, this morning, according to the order of the lord, when the subordinates were about to attack the ruins of Taogu, they found that it was unusually quiet, so they sent two men and horses to attack tentatively, but there was no resistance at all, and when we rushed in, we saw thousands of war horses stopped at the bottom of the ridge, and people ...... All the people are gone. ”

Li Guangrui's face was as pale as paper, and after a moment, a piece of blood red spread rapidly from the bottom of his neck upwards, and the whole face turned red, and then began to turn purple, his eyes almost ate Zhang Chongwei, and Zhang Chongwei trembled in horror.

Le Feiyu hurriedly stepped forward and shouted, "My lord, no matter how Yang Hao escapes, hurry up and respond." ”

Li Guangrui's eyes moved, and Zhang Chongwei pushed forward, Zhang Chongwei took a few steps back, and sat on the ground.

Li Guangrui's face turned pale, his eyes showed a fierce and hideous light, and he shouted: "No matter how the old man escaped, at least his reinforcements don't know the news yet, Zhang Chongwei, you go back to me immediately, feint to attack the ruins of Taogu, be sure to bring me in the Imperial Honor Department, and entangle him to the death, otherwise...... The old man will skin you to make a saddle! ”

Zhang Chongwei agreed tremblingly, turned around and ran out, Li Guangrui walked quickly to the outside of the tent, looked at the troops that were gathering in the valley one after another, and muttered: "Yang Hao...... Yang Hao ......, can you fly into the sky with wings? ”

※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※ the Imperial Commander made a surprise attack on Moyunling, and the men and horses stationed on the pontoon bridge were replaced by Li Yide. The ally of Fold Yuxun did not rescue his own adults, but cut off the enemy's food and grass, and Li Yide also despised it very much. He even wondered if Zhe Yuxun harbored evil intentions, and wanted to use Li Guangrui's hand to get rid of his own marshal, and as soon as the grain and grass were burned, the last bit of military morale of the Xiazhou army must be wiped out, right? Does Zhe Yuxun want to take advantage of this to become the king of the northwest?

But although there is no resentment in his heart, the enemy is at present, but it is not a time for his family to fall apart first. At least, they attacked Moyunling, which can be regarded as supporting them from the side, and when the lady arrived with his troops, and the enemy army learned that the grain and grass had been burned, maybe it would be easier to rescue the marshal.

The sun had risen, the first rays of sunlight had just sprinkled on the dew-stained grass, the fog on the river was rapidly fading, Li Yide walked on the bridge, looking at the north bank, hoping that his wife's reinforcements would arrive as soon as possible, while secretly thinking.

Suddenly, someone shouted, "Look, look, a lot of driftwood, huh?" Someone, more than one person. ”

Li Yide brushed the ground and pulled out his saber, and shouted nervously: "Be on guard!" Alert! Watch out for raids! ”

On the bridge and the soldiers on both sides of the river stretched out their bows and arrows, and were on guard in a hurry, and they saw many strange things coming down the river, rushing very fast, those things rose and fell with the waves, rushing in the fog and shadows, some had passed through the bottom of the bridge and continued to rush downstream, and some scraped against the bridge, and a big log was knocked across by the bridge, and was carried between the two bridges, blocking many things that came from behind.

Li Yide leaned on the bridge railing and looked down, only to see a person tied to the rotten big tree, and the things that were blocked by this big tree were all people, some of them had saddles and many thin branches and trunks tied to their chests and backs, and some had a large bundle of arrow shafts tightly tied in their arms, but they were all unconscious. Li Yide's heart jumped, he quickly put away the saber, and shouted: "Quick, quickly rescue people, come people, come people, probe guns into a fence, block the river!" ”

The spearmen of the brigade rushed up to the bridge, and the spears were plunged straight into the water, forming an artificial fence, and more and more floating objects were stopped by them, and the soldiers holding the bridge felt a little unbearable even if they were supported by the bridge, and then the second row of spears went into the water again. At the same time, many soldiers leaned under the bridge with ropes tied to their bodies and began to rescue people upward.

Li Yide's camp launched a peculiar rescue, and the people on the shore of the bridge lined up in a long line, pulled up one and dragged one away, and dragged to the shore for emergency rescue. Most people are just swept away by the rolling waves, and the river is still relatively cold, so that they faint, but there are also a few people, it is estimated that in the process of going down the river by the cliffs, reefs, or collisions between large trees, some bones and tendons, some hit the unlucky eggs with vital brains, the head is already like a rotten watermelon, it is impossible to live again, and there are very few who drown directly.

"My lord, this one is awake."

"My lord, this one has been saved."

The soldiers had already recognized that the rescued people were their own people from the way they were dressed, and they spared no effort to rescue them, and Li Yide ordered a commander to order: "Go, hurry up and prepare hot water and hot porridge." As he spoke, he walked like a fly, running towards a soldier who had just woken up.

The soldier was a blonde and blue-eyed alien ronin, who had just been put on his lap, spit out a large pool of water, and was put down on the ground, patted and rubbed, and at this time he had woken up, and his consciousness was gradually sober, Li Yide hurried to his side and asked urgently: "Which part of the centaur are you, and who is under whom?" Why did it come from the water? ”

The soldier's eyes were still a little straight, Li Yide squatted down and grabbed him: "This official Yinzhou dispatching envoy Li Yide, Hexi Longyou's soldier Ma Dayuan is under his command, you are our person?" ”

The soldier spoke rough Chinese, and when he heard the words of the generalissimo of Hexi Longyou, he couldn't help grinning, he patted his chest and muttered a string of Qiang words.

Although Li Yide lives in the northwest, he is a Han family, and the upper-class people of the Qiang nationality who have met him are also proud of knowing Chinese characters and Chinese, but he is not proficient in Qiang language, and he can't help but roll his eyes when he hears the man's words, and quickly grab another person who has awakened, this person is a Han person, once he identifies his identity, he immediately grabbed Li Yide's hand and shouted: "The commander is urgent, don't go to help!" The commander is urgent, don't go to help! ”

Li Yide said movingly: "Why don't you go to help? ”

I didn't want the man to scream only twice, but because of his physical weakness, he fainted again. Fortunately, more and more people have been rescued one after another, Li Yide said a sentence in the east and a sentence in the west, and finally gradually sorted out the ruins of Taogu......※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※ after midnight, Yang Hao gathered all the people, every time he said a word, the people around him passed on the words one by one, the voice was not very loud, only a few people around him could hear it, so he had to pause for a long time every time he said a word.

"Ladies and gentlemen, why are we trapped here, and the enemy has not attacked? It's not that their forces are not enough to destroy us, but they want to use us as bait to lure our brothers and allies over, and Lee Guangrui's army must be ambushed around here! ”

"Brothers, so ...... If we want to wait for reinforcements to come to our rescue, it is absolutely impossible. If the reinforcements don't come, once they arrive, it will be our death, and at the same time, it will also be the death of the reinforcements. ”

"This calamity is a test of heaven for us. After this catastrophe, we will definitely be able to turn defeat into victory!

"However, there is no endless road, and we may not have a glimmer of life. Our vitality is on this uncertain river! Let's dive to survive! ”

Yang Hao looked around at the soldiers who had tied all kinds of floating things on their bodies according to his orders, and saw that the crowd was in a commotion, and many people showed worried looks, so he pressed his hands and said in a low voice: "I know that my brothers are all heroes and heroes in the north, and most of them don't know water, hehe, some brothers may not have taken a few baths in their lives, and they are all a little afraid of water, but no matter how fierce this water is, is it more fierce than the tens of thousands of enemy troops outside us?" ”

He restrained his smile and said, "Brothers, don't forget, Ben Shuai is the reincarnation of Gangjin Gongbao, Gangjin Gongbao, in our Chinese, is Guanyin Bodhisattva, where does Guanyin Bodhisattva live?" Living in the South China Sea, the sea, but the land of water. Maybe the brothers have heard that Ben Shuai was born in response to the water of virtue, this water is a big murderer to others, for me, but when you meet water, you live, and you live when you meet wood. With the blessing of the gods, what are the brothers afraid of? ”

Tell a lot of big truths to the people of this era, not as good as a few words of gods and ghosts are more incendiary and inspiring, Yang Hao said these words, the soldiers immediately quieted down, and their faces also showed a look of joy.

"Listen, everyone in front of and behind you, try to tie up something floating in the water, now the weather in April, the river is not too cold, but it has rained heavily in the past two days, the cold in the water is not so easy to resist, clothes must be worn on the body, as tightly as possible, even if it is soaked in water, it is warmer than naked. The leather armor is tied to the vital part of the head and abdomen as much as possible, and the water flow is too turbulent, and it is inevitable to bump and bump into the river. Distribute food for a while, kill a few more horses, and drink some horse blood to warm your belly. ”

"Let's remember one thing, go down the river, after breaking out of the encirclement at night, the brothers should try to get closer to the north bank, and rush to Yinzhou after going ashore, don't worry if you can't get to the shore for a while, there is always a place where the water flow is gentle, not to mention that Li Guangrui has set up an ambush here, which means that we already have reinforcements to cross the river, they will definitely build bridges, bury retreats, and there must be defenders at the bridge, and they will salvage us."

"The last two things to remember are crucial. No matter who it is, as long as you see our people, you must tell them immediately, don't go to help, we have been out of trouble, if the reinforcements have been out, you must chase back immediately, here is a trap, it is an ambush! ”

"Second, our 6,000 soldiers and horses, escaped from the waterway, most of them can be safe and sound, but down the water, it is inevitable that they will be scattered, and without horses, walking only on two legs, this commander does not dare to guarantee that he will rush back to the barracks first. No matter who you are, the first person to find us, be sure to tell Master Li Yide that the flag of the commander has been re-erected on the sloppy side, and whether I am there or not, you must make a big show and create a posture that the commander has returned to the camp. This is Li Guangrui's last fight, Ben Shuai returned to the camp safely, and his last bit of arrogance is about to be blown away! ”

"Good! It was quiet now, and the team followed Ben Shuai to the north cliff. ”

The ropes that could be used to tie the cliff were no longer able to tie ropes, and there were many burdens tied to the body, and even a large piece of rotten beams, it was too difficult to go down the ropes, and these thousands of men and horses had to be launched before dawn, in case they were discovered by the enemy, and the deaths and injuries would be multiplied if they shot arrows at the river.

However, the lowest place they found from the river, also six zhang up and down, these soldiers climbed several zhang high ladders, watchtowers as if walking on the ground, but asked them to jump down the dark darkness of the night, but only heard the sound of the uncertain river, but many soldiers who were not afraid of swords and guns, not afraid of life and death, could not do.

Many of them really haven't taken a few baths in their lives, let alone playing in the water, a warrior who dares to face thousands of horses and thousands of troops, obviously has put life and death aside, but he is afraid of something inexplicable, this fear is of course inexplicable, but this instinctive fear is not inexplicable.

Seeing that the soldiers were frozen by the river and did not dare to jump, Yang Hao raised his eyebrows and instructed Mu Yu: "Xiao Yu, you put it back, lead my own soldiers to supervise the jumping team, and extend it to the end, those who dare not jump will be killed!" ”

Yang Hao turned his head and said to the soldiers: "Brothers, try to stay calm when you are immersed in the water, hold your breath, and dive, it's not a big deal." Ben Shuai jumped one step first, it's my brother's, keep up! ”

Yang Hao walked to the edge of the cliff and jumped down first, and fell into the deep river with a "tom". Although he had been prepared, but it was dark and difficult to see, he could not grasp the exact time of falling into the water, he sank into the water suddenly, and almost drank a sip of river water, he held his breath, and immediately paddled violently when he surfaced, holding on to prevent himself from drifting too fast down the water, and shouted to the cliff: "Brothers, this handsome is safe and sound, everyone go into the water!" ”

Mu Yu took advantage of the situation and shouted to the guards he arranged: "Dashuai jumped, let's jump too, everyone is a man with eggs, and he doesn't have a bear." ”

The soldiers in front were already eager to try, but they were pushed by the people arranged by Mu Yu, and as soon as they squeezed forward, the soldiers fell into the river like dumplings.

"Take your time, take your time, jump in batches, don't squeeze your own brothers."

Commander Li saw that the front was already up, so he flashed out to maintain order, and in this way, groups of soldiers jumped into the water in an orderly manner, and by the time the sun rose in the east, the ruins of Taogu had gone to the empty city.

After Li Yide figured out what had happened, he was stunned for a long time, and suddenly jumped three feet and shouted: "Da Shuai was the first to jump down?" What about others? ”

※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※ the sun was about to rise overhead, and Li Guangrui's heart hung in his throat.

The men and horses of Zhe Yuxun have not yet arrived, and he is running long distances, trying to maintain his horsepower? Judging from the hour, even if he galloped slowly, it was time to arrive now, could it be that he had discovered something and withdrawn his troops again? ”

Li Guangrui couldn't hold back, and finally sent a scout horse to take the risk of investigating. The first batch of probes was sent out, but there was no reply for a long time, and Lee Guangrui sent three more batches of probes in succession, but there was no news until now.

"Someone is back." There was a commotion among the generals around him, and when he saw a horse galloping into the valley, Li Guangrui couldn't hold it back, and immediately stepped up to meet him.

"My lord, the villain patrolled all the way, thirty miles away, and there was no trace of the enemy. The other brothers continued to investigate, and the villain came back first to report to the adults. ”

"Thirty miles away, no sign of the enemy?" The generals under Li Guangrui's command looked at each other in surprise.

The shadow had shrunk to his feet, the sun had risen overhead, and he hurried back at a gallop: "Report, my lord, my subordinates have gone seventy miles away, and have found a large number of horseshoe prints turning there, pointing diagonally to the southwest. The subordinate horsemen were divided into two routes, all the way to follow the enemy's tracks, and all the way to continue to explore. ”

"Turn to the southwest ...... seventy miles away, turn to the southwest ...... seventy miles away," Li Guangrui muttered to himself, his eyes full of suspicion.

Suddenly, the fat on his whole body trembled violently, and he clenched his fists and shouted: "The whole army is dispatched to help Moyunling, quickly!" Hurry! Use the fastest speed to mobilize troops out of the mountain! ”

With a word, Li Guangrui turned around and left, Le Feiyu hurriedly followed, Li Guangrui staggered back to the tent, and just reached out to grab the saber hanging on the wall, and a mouthful of blood spurted out. Le Feiyu hugged him and said worriedly: "My lord, you ......"

Li Guangrui wiped the blood on his lips with the sleeves of his robe, and a strange rosy appeared on his face, he grabbed Le Feiyu's thin arm with his backhand, and said with a cruel smile: "I, Li Guangrui, have survived many winds and waves, I will not be defeated, no one can defeat me!" ”

Li Guangrui carried the knife on his shoulder, strode out of the tent, and shouted with disgust: "Someone, order Zhang Chongwei's troops to immediately go down the river, cut off the enemy's waterway, and block his retreat. ”
