Xu Renjie rode a horse, embarrassed to retreat from the mountain road, although the horse he rode was a short pony, but he did not dare to move too fast on the mountain road, and it also made his center of gravity unstable, several times almost fell off the horse. Because of the haste in which he retreated, he almost led him into the ravine, so frightened that he did not dare to ride on the horse anymore, jumped off the horse, and pointed at the Sichuan soldiers who came out of the ravine.

Fortunately, the black pole soldiers of the Chinese army stepped up in time and did not give away his life.

I saw that the black pole soldiers had already fought fiercely with the Sichuan soldiers, and these black pole soldiers had been training in Huanglong Mountain for several years, and they had to walk several miles of mountain roads almost every day, practicing running and climbing between the mountains and fields, and exercising their ability to fight individually when they could not form a formation.

Its training method is completely different from the formation training of ordinary soldiers!

At this time, the results were finally seen, and the speed of the black pole soldiers running in the mountains and wilderness was not known how many times stronger than that of ordinary soldiers, and they rushed from the hillside where ordinary people could not walk at all to the front of the officers and soldiers, and the black pole soldiers in front of them waved their black pole guns and engaged the officers and soldiers.

The soldiers of both armies could not form a formation, and it was all up to individual bravery. The bravery of the Sichuan soldiers, in the entire Ming Dynasty can also count the top few, the so-called poor mountains and bad waters out of the people, like Sichuan, the soldiers from the fierce people, there is also a ruthlessness, the personal combat ability is much stronger than the soft egg soldiers in the Central Plains, the two sides are hot as soon as they receive fire.

Although the black pole soldiers have been training for many years, after all, it is the first time to go into battle, and they are quite cringe, and they are quickly suppressed by the officers and soldiers. The black pole soldiers in the front row kept retreating.

At this time, the black pole soldiers behind had already followed, and they saw that the black pole soldiers in front of them were in difficulty, so they quickly hooked the black pole gun in their hands to the branch next to them, and then brushed the ground and climbed up the tree. Shoot your bow and arrows in the treetops.

The Sichuan soldiers were fighting with the black pole soldiers in front of them, and they were caught off guard by a strong arrow in front of them, and they couldn't help but be surprised. I can't help but mess up my hands and feet. How could the black pole soldiers in front of them miss this good opportunity? seized the opportunity to stab him with a shot and stabbed the Sichuan soldiers in front of him to the ground. At this moment, their confidence soared, and many things they had learned from their usual training poured into their minds, and their morale soared.

In fact, it is not that the Sichuan soldiers do not know how to go up the tree. There are a lot of Sichuan soldiers who are also climbing up the trees. It's just that they didn't expect the black pole soldiers on the opposite side to go up the tree so quickly. In the blink of an eye, the other party was already occupying the top of the treetops, shooting arrows indiscriminately. Many of the soldiers who were climbing the tree fell to the ground and could no longer climb the tree.

At this time, someone in the grass stretched out the spears of several Sichuan soldiers and stabbed them in the thighs of several black pole soldiers in the front, these black pole soldiers were injured and rolled down, and the black pole soldiers who followed up stretched out their guns and hooked them into the grass, and the barb on the black pole gun hooked the ambush soldiers in the grass, and dragged them out with a pull back, and then pulled out the waist knife from the waist, cut it down, and the blood soared......

Of course, there are also empty hooks, but although they didn't hook people, they hooked the unkempt grass, dragged it back, and immediately dragged all the grass away, and the Sichuan soldiers hiding in the grass suddenly lost their cover, and before they could react, a few black guns stabbed at the back, and the account was immediately settled.

A Sichuan soldier jumped on a two-person high stone, condescended on the stone, stabbed downward, and stabbed down several Zhu soldiers in a row, but saw that the two black pole soldiers connected the spears and turned them into a huge and incomparably long nunchuck, sweeping towards the stone, and the Sichuan soldier was swept down by the barrel of the gun, and fell dizzy, and before he could wake up, he had been slashed and killed with a knife.

Fighting between this kind of mountains and forests, the situation is really too complicated, some people are climbing the shore rocks, some people are climbing the treetops, some people are getting into the grass, some people are hiding in the ditches, some people are fighting under the cover of trees, there are chaotic scenes everywhere, the soldiers on both sides are a little overwhelmed, the black pole soldiers have been training in this area, but after all, the combat experience is still shallow, and many things in the training cannot be transformed into actual combat means, and they are actually entangled with this Sichuan soldier unit.

Xu Renjie was unhappy in his heart, the black pole soldiers he had carefully trained were actually entangled with a group of tattered Sichuan soldiers, and he couldn't tell the winner for a long time, so where did he put his old face, so he looked into the ravine in all directions, and thought: Now the officers and soldiers have only invested in three teams, each team is 500, a total of only 1,500 people, where is the 1,500? My black pole soldiers have only invested about the same number, and the others are all crowded behind the mountain road and can't intervene, so it is really necessary to attack the enemy's flank around these ditches.

In fact, he was thinking about this question, and Zuo Guangxian on the cliff in the distance was also thinking about this question: "Huh? Where did I have three teams of fifteen hundred people running to? ”

You must know that the mountains near Guangyuan are extremely complicated, mountain after mountain, ditch after ditch, those 1,500 people are slipping around in the ravine, Zuo Guangxian doesn't know their location at all, and can only rely on the leading deputy of the three armies to bring the soldiers back, which is also one of the big problems faced by the generals when there is no radio communication-

At this time, ten miles away in the north, Zhu Yuanzhang led the main force, and was also moving forward slowly, if it was in the plains, a few miles away Xu Renjie's troops and the enemy began a fierce battle, he must have received the news from the scouts, but in this complex terrain, the scouts of the main force could not be scattered, and it was not clear that the front army had already received the enemy, and was still advancing unhurriedly.

The army marched for a while, and the scout in front reported back: "Brother Zhu, our army scout was attacked and killed!" ”

It turned out that the scouts of the main force of the Zhu army also encountered the same problem as Xu Renjie's scouts, and were attacked by the scouts scattered by officers and soldiers in the mountains, and the scouts of the two armies fought, and the scouts of the Zhu army suffered the loss of unfamiliar terrain and lacked experience in mountain and forest warfare, so they suffered heavy losses like Xu Renjie's scouts.

Xu Renjie could only be helpless when he encountered this situation, but Zhu Yuanzhang said calmly: "Don't worry, take back the scouts, don't need to sentry too far, gather into a few groups of people, just keep an eye on the mouth of a few nearby ravines, there is a hill in front, Wang Er, you lead five hundred people to occupy that mountain, I will go up that mountain." ”

Wang Er nodded and said, "Yes!" ”

Zhu Yuanzhang pointed to this mountain, but it is not simple, it is the best view in the nearby area, the most suitable for commanding the battle of the small hill, in fact, Zhu Yuanzhang does not know this, he just relies on the experience gained in the previous life of the horse career, intuitively thinks that this mountain is very important, and the accuracy of this intuition, but not ordinary people can have, ordinary people have to fight for more than ten or twenty years, after a hundred battles to have such a keen feeling.

Under his command, Wang Er led the people towards the hill, Zhu Yuanzhang also let the Chinese army slowly move towards the mountain, and the scouts immediately gathered to the entrance of several ravines to sentry, and it didn't take long for the scouts to send news: "There are three Sichuan soldiers in the ravine, and they are quietly drilling a ditch to approach our army." ”

It turned out that the six Sichuan troops sent out by Zuo Guang were ambushed at several intersections, and the two ambushes encountered Xu Renjie and started a big battle, and the other road also quickly crossed the ditch to reinforce, but there were three Sichuan soldiers who drilled around in the ditch, and somehow they got to Zhu Yuanzhang's main force.

Therefore, it is really not easy to fight in the mountains and forests, even if it is a local land snake, it is inevitable that there will be a situation where the wrong hole is drilled in a panic. In fact, they can't be regarded as drilling the wrong hole, because the officers and soldiers can't tell the difference between the front army and the rear army of the Zhu army, and they only know that the people in front of them are also a thief army.

The three commanders of these three officers and soldiers are actually three brothers, named Meng Changshui, Meng Changsheng, and Meng Changxing, the three brothers joined the officers and soldiers at the same time, and at the same time they were promoted and made a fortune, and now they are also leading the five hundred Sichuan soldiers and soldiers, and the three of them came out of the ditch, but they didn't expect that they had already been discovered by the scouts of the Zhu army, and the surprise attack was naturally not successful, and the two armies quickly fought in the mountains and forests.

Fortunately, the power of the main force of the Chinese army led by Zhu Yuanzhang when fighting in the mountains and forests may not be higher than that of the black pole soldiers led by Xu Renjie.

The three brothers of the Meng family rushed out of the ravine, only to find that the thief army actually had as many as tens of thousands, and all of them were young and strong, and there was not a single old and weak woman, how had they ever seen such a thief? The three brothers were all taken aback, feeling that Yali Mountain was big, and if they were not careful, the three of them would end up dead without a place to be buried.

The boss Meng Changshui rolled his eyes, immediately stared at a hill next to him, and said loudly: "Let's go up that hill!" ”

The second eldest Meng Changsheng turned his head to take a look, and said happily: "The eldest brother is right, that is Lao Yao Mountain, it is the hill with the best view and the best strategic location in this vicinity, if we base on that mountain, we can be invincible, and when General Zuo surrounds it, the thief army will be broken." ”

The three brothers had a general mind, so they asked their 1,500 officers and soldiers to fight and leave Lao Yashan Mountain.

If it was on the plain, with the ability of the three brothers, it would be impossible for them to fight and leave under the pressure of the Zhu army, but in this mountain forest, the Sichuan soldiers said they would leave, and the Zhu army would not be able to stay at all.

Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes were like torches, and at a glance, he knew that the three Sichuan troops all wanted to go up to that small hill, and he couldn't help but laugh in his heart: I chose that mountain to be the command location, but you all ran towards that mountain with a nest of winds, do you want to refuse to stay on that mountain? It's also interesting, and let's see who takes the mountain first.

He ordered the banner to come out, and several units of Zhu soldiers on the left and right rushed to the mountain from many trails, and several other Zhu troops were pestering the Sichuan soldiers to fight to the death, the scene was extremely chaotic, and the sound of swords, guns, swords, and halberds was everywhere on the mountain, in the forest, in the ditch, and on the cliff.
