Volume 3 Mending the Crack in the Sky Chapter 167 Banquet Hongmen (9)
In the same night, a group of light horsemen quietly came out of the military village.
The person who led the team was the commander called Shi Dalang.
Shi Dalang's eyes couldn't help but look back at the young general beside him, who might be a year or two younger than him.
This young military general is naturally Wei Dagong. At this time, Wei Dagong's face was full of murderous aura!
After Wei Dagong passed, Shi Dalang sat in the military village here. It was a few days of torment. King Yan suddenly sent an envoy to help the remnants of the Yan army, giving Shi Dalang a glimmer of hope. But all the time, I am worried again.
I am afraid that Wei Dagong and the others were not in the chaos when they were looking for Yang Keshi, and I am afraid that Wei Dagong can even pass through to the left of the Black Tea Mountain, and Yang Keshi has been defeated and died, and the Yan Yan army has already been wiped out. This repeated torment made Shi Dalang unable to eat or sleep for the past few days, and his eyes sank.
In such a upside-down waiting, when Shi Dalang was eager to lead the defenders of the village to rush out to the west, and when he went to find Wei Dagong, he finally came on a rampage with a light horse, which was led by Wei Dagong!
It turned out that the young generals sent by King Yan not only ventured to cross Yifang's Jurchen defense line, but also found the passage that their own house was guarding, and continued to clash in the direction of Black Tea Mountain, saying that Yang Keshi led the remnants of more than 10,000 Yan troops to the east!
More than 10,000 military horses risked their lives to clash to the east, and the Jurchen military horses that pressed into the Weishui River Valley from the east were restrained by King Yan, but only more than 1,000 horsemen rushed left and left in Hehe County. How can you resist this torrent of rushing away? At most, it can play a role in harassing people from the side and slowing down the eastward advance of the brigade. And Wei Dagong was ordered by Yang Keshi to lead a team of light horsemen to take the lead. Let's start by securing this vital access road to the east of the valley.
However, after more than three days of hard work, Shi Dalang who was suffering waited for Wei Dagong and their return!
Shi Dalang never thought that a general who could not get ahead in the Western Army before and was so young could do such a miraculous thing!
In the end, King Yan has a discerning eye for talents, or is there all the good men in the world, but under the command of King Yan. in order to show their strengths. can be in this lifeless and decaying world. Stand out from the crowd?
Surprised by Wei Dagong's return, what made Shi Dalang gloomy for a long time was that he didn't see the figure of the old capital again.
But that's how the battle goes. didn't give Shi Dalang the leisure to cry out loud. Wei Dagong had already immediately ordered Shi Dalang to lead the way, and rushed to the eastern exit of this mountain road with this group of light horses.
The east of the exit is Yifang County!
More than 200 horsemen, divided into three teams, stretched out in a long single formation, and marched eastward.
After a long period of rain, tonight was a rare sunny day. The night sky is like a wash, and the moon and stars are scarce. On both sides of the road, the sound of insects chirping.
The team had already traveled more than 20 miles east along the road, and saw the crescent moon sinking in the west. The pre-dawn darkness is coming. There was a doubling silence, except for the sound of horses' hooves.
The cavalry troops under Wei Dagong's department were already extremely tired, and the war horses under their crotches were all fat and tight, and they had no strength. The cavalry did not rush their horses on the way, but walked on foot. Rao is so. The heads of these horses are a little lowered, and each step seems to be extremely difficult. And the knight on the horse was hunched on horseback. The head followed the mount little by little, and if you could get closer, you could hear some of the knights snoring slightly.
Shi Dalang walked in the queue in front, but he kept his eyes wide, observing the surrounding terrain, and saw that the mountain slowed down, and the trees on the mountain gradually thinned out, and he was suddenly tense.
This is about to go out of the mountain!
Shi Dalang turned around, and before he could get close to Wei Dagong, who was walking in the queue, the young general, who seemed to have been sleeping right away, raised his head and looked at Shi Dalang's gaze was still so sharp: "Have you arrived?" ”
Shi Dalang lowered his voice: "I haven't been sitting in the village in the past few days, and I personally led a team to visit the sentry. The Jurchen Tartars have a small trench in the mountain pass, guarded by more than a dozen Jurchen Tartar birds, and more than 20 horses. The sun always comes out during the day, and sometimes it comes east, probing our brains in front of our stockade............ Two miles to go! ”
Wei Dagong rubbed his face with both hands, exhaled a long breath, looked back left and right, and ordered in a low voice: "Get off the horse!" ”
Around him, dozens of knights immediately dismounted, took off their armor, put them on their horses, and handed their mounts to Robeze. These dozens of horsemen have changed their crossbow machines and horse swords, do not use long blades, are lightly dressed, and the cuffs and trousers are all tied tightly with strips of cloth. I was ready to touch it from the mountain, and take advantage of the darkness before the dawn to touch the small trench set up by the Jurchen Tartars in the mountain pass!
Shi Dalang also hurriedly unloaded his armor and tied his arms, and Wei Dagong squinted at him: "When the time comes, you will only lead the way, and you will fight for your own people." ”
Hearing this, Shi Dalang's face turned red, and in the refreshing cold air of the dawn in the mountains, he took off his bare shoulders at once! With the faint starlight, I saw that Shi Dalang had nine coiled dragons tattooed on his back, with teeth and claws, which was extremely terrifying!
"Bottles, jars, and ears. Who doesn't know that I Shi Dalang has a bad temper and won't get money. It can also be used as a commander, just rely on the fighting kung fu that immediately steps down! When the time comes, I will only rush to the front! ”
After saying these words fiercely, Shi Dalang took the lead and climbed the mountain. And Wei Dagong just shook his head and waved his hand, and dozens of sons and daughters immediately followed.
These dozens of knights were all selected from the elite cavalry of Yang Keshi's department, and Yang Keshi's department was almost selected from the fifty or sixty thousand military horses that could go into battle in Qin Fengjingyuan's two armies!
Dozens of figures rushed down the mountain, through the already sparse trees. The sky around him first fell into the darkness before dawn, and then the darkness gradually faded, and the sky and earth turned into a light gray color, and the terrain of mountains and rivers was suddenly recognizable.
And at the place of the mountain pass, it is built according to the forest, and it is deliberately located in the middle of the mountain, avoiding the road, and a small Jurchen card is right in front of you!
This clip, which serves as a platform, is actually built extremely sparsely, just a sparse fence. Inside the fence, sheds were erected to serve as stables, as well as several tattered tents.
At this moment, this small card village with a radius of three or four lengths at most did not make any sound, and stood here quietly.
Including Shi Dalang, these dozens of people are veterans with experience in battle formations. Without waiting for the order, he lowered his body, pulled away from the queue, held the crossbow machine in his hand, and touched towards Kazhai in a half-moon shape.
Everyone tiptoed to the extreme, for fear of alarming the Jurchen Tartars who were still sleeping in Kazhai. Everyone is praying that the Jurchen Tartars will sleep more deadly, not to be alarmed, in case the beacon is lit, and a large group of people will be summoned to block the mountain pass!
Dozens of people approached closer and closer, and then stopped and squatted ten steps outside the fence, and there was not even a ditch for this bird clip. Carmen remained tightly closed at the moment.
Dozens of people took out their crossbow machines and twisted their strings. All eyes looked at the place where Wei Dagong was. And Wei Dagong did not hesitate, and waved his finger fiercely!
Dozens of figures sprang up and pounced on the Tartar Kazi ten paces away!
The person who rushed to the front was shirtless, with a tattoo of Nine Dragons on his back, and he didn't hold a crossbow machine, just a horse sword. Isn't it Shi Dalang who was angered by Wei Dagong, who else could it be?
Shi Dalang was long and big, fluttering like the wind, and he didn't even do the state of climbing over the sparse fence of one person, so he fit and bumped into it!
The wood used in these fences is small and shallow. The Jurchen Tartars really didn't put much effort into running here, and when Shi Dalang hit him like this, he suddenly collapsed. Shi Dalang had already turned over and got up again, holding his horse sword and slamming straight into the tattered camp in the middle of the card!
Behind Shi Dalang, dozens of figures followed like arrows, more than a dozen people turned to the stables, and most of the rest pointed dozens of crossbow machines at those tents!
Shi Dalang had already taken the lead and entered one of the tents. The sergeants who came up could only stop the crossbow on the middle tabernacle, and the crossbow machines were all pointed at the other two tents, and then they heard the sound of teeth and hair, and then the sound of the crossbow arrows breaking through the air.
Then everyone waited, and almost at the same time dropped the crossbow machine, and all of them drew their swords!
In the middle tabernacle, Shi Dalang's roar came: "Straight lady thief, there is not a single bird and tartar!" The rabbit is their grandson, and he runs so fast! ”
Angered by Wei Dagong's words, Shi Dalang held back his strength to show his fighting ability, but he fell short, listening to his tone, he was almost about to cry!
The more than a dozen sergeants who rushed to the stable also turned around and shook their heads at Wei Dagong. In front of him, he has obviously given up for the Jurchen Tartars.
Such an important place is unguarded............
Wei Dagong burst out laughing.
"King Yan's onslaught really hurt the Tartar! All the forces that the Tartars can draw are used to the east! The eastern access road is already open for us! ”
He ordered loudly: "Send someone back to spread the word to General Yang, just move forward boldly." Fight your way out of the Azui River Valley! (To be continued)
