Chapter 2: Saving the Governor of Liangguang (11)

However, they had to climb up, because the rocks blocking the pomelo valley must be cleared, otherwise the officers and soldiers would have to abandon their horses, and the officers and soldiers who abandoned the horses would find it difficult to quickly break through the rebels at the exit of the pomelo valley, so that they would become a live target for the rebels on the mountainside to smash stones.

The tactics of the rebels were not complicated, and in fact many of them were originally mountain people or peasants, and did not have very strict military training. But there is no doubt that this method of warfare is effective, at least these days, more than 2,000 people and horses in Shi Pu's department can't even get close to the exit, so they are smashed back, not to mention archery, shooting from the bottom to the top, plus the mountain wind, how accurate can it be? Besides, there are rocks everywhere, so you can always shoot this arrow, right? The rebels were not allowed to smash anything, the stones were accurate, the officers and soldiers were not able to shoot accurately, and there were no arrows in two days, and every day of delay became more and more unfavorable to the situation of the officers and troops.

So they had to climb up, join Ding Junyue's team, and get equipment to be able to rescue the officers and soldiers of this department. Otherwise, no matter how capable the seven of them are, they won't be able to make a splash in these thousands of rebels. Even if there is no disciplined rebel army, when the number reaches this scale, unless they can kill five or six hundred people in a short time, so that the opponent's battle damage can quickly reach twenty percent, then they can collapse, otherwise seven people, really more than 2,000 people, can drown one person by urinating.

The climb to the cliff is difficult, not to mention the fact that there is only starlight at night. Otherwise, the soldiers and horses on Shipu's side, this situation is not without blood, but the people who desperately want to climb out often let the rebels find out on the mountainside, and countless stones fall down. Directly stoned to death, fell to death.

Fortunately, Xing Dahe and Chen San had practiced rock climbing as early as Ding Yi, and after arriving in Zhaoqing, they specially invited mountain people to teach the skills of climbing in the mountains. And Wen Fatzi invited back these three wolf soldiers from King Yao, and he was a master, and he practiced with these three people for a month, and he didn't feel particularly difficult at this time.

As for the three wolf soldiers who climbed in front, after they arrived in Huaiji, Ding Yi told them about the modern climbing skills such as the three-point support, although they could do it, but they did not summarize it so systematically. is more based on personal talent, and Ding Yi's explanation allows their talent to be better played. Looking at the movements of these three wolf soldiers, it really seemed to be at ease.

When the three wolf soldiers easily went up to the platform halfway up the mountain, Du Ziteng and the two had just completed two-thirds of the way.

This is talent, like the fat man and the fat ball. It's okay to let them wear three layers of armor. It's no problem to carry a blunt object to kill, but they are particularly uncomfortable with this kind of work. The fat ball lay there, motionless looking at the cliff, although he couldn't see Du Ziteng's figure clearly by the campfire, he still tried his best to hold a large breath in the lower half of his body, if released. It's definitely a very loud stinky fartโ€”it's disgusting, but if Du Ziteng and they kick off the rocks and fall down. The disgusting fart of the fat ball is needed to divert the attention of the alarmed rebels, so that Du Ziteng and them have a possibility to escape.

Fortunately, the fat ball did not need to release his chemical weapons for the time being, Du Ziteng and Xing Dahe finally climbed onto the platform, and the rhythmic cicada chirping made by Du Ziteng was mixed with the insect chirping in the mountains and forests, which was simply a natural sound for Li Yuncong, who had been lurking on the top of the mountain.

Several cloth bags tied to ropes were carefully lowered down.

It took three times in a row to put down all the equipment.

Du Ziteng carried the largest cloth bag package, Xing Dahe also made the same choice, but they were immediately held down, it was the three wolf soldiers, they pointed to the cliff, shook their heads lightly at Du Ziteng and the two, and then took off the package they were carrying from them and carried it on their shoulders.

In fact, as they expected, even if they were carrying a few small packages that were much lighter than the two large ones, it was extremely difficult for the two of them to climb down the cliff, because it was impossible for them to stretch out and make movements, and they had to prevent themselves from falling into the rocks.

And after successfully climbing down the cliff, even the three wolf soldiers hid downwind and couldn't stop breathing.

"Go back, please drink!" Xing Dahe touched the shoulders of the three wolf soldiers, and found that the clothes on their bodies were all soaked, and naturally knew that the trip was all a fateful act, if it wasn't for the three of them taking the initiative to see the problem, they were afraid that they and Du Ziteng would not be able to survive if they climbed halfway to death, let alone make a sound, and came down safely.

"Okay," the wolf soldier straightened up, held Xing Dahe's arm behind him, and laughed in a low voice, "When the time comes, call Zhao Mashi to get a pangolin to match the wine." In the month he went to Huaiji, he could feel the friendliness of these people to them, or the respect that those teenagers had for them, and more importantly, they had fought with Du Ziteng and Xing Dahe, and they basically couldn't last three or two rounds before admitting defeat. Capable warriors will not look down on people, and the Yao people also like such friends.

The one who called Zhao Mashi was the big head and one expensive listened, wiped the sweat on his forehead and said with a smile: "Fang Jia's life is two dogs and three expensive, what is delicious about pangolins?" Steal two earth dogs when the time comes......" Du Ziteng listened to a wry smile, could it be that the wolf soldiers who were abducted and brought back by the fat man were all the same virtue as him, didn't they forget to eat and drink at any time?

Fortunately, the other wolf soldier frowned and reprimanded: "Big head, two dogs, it's important to do business!" The two men stopped.

Datou and Ergou are their real names, and the names of the Yao people are so long: the surname plus the name of the house, plus the name and ranking, and the generation at the end. You even have to add your grandfather's or patronymic name in the middle, that's even longer. Originally, it was not a formal occasion, and it was not necessarily such a long list of calls, but after arriving in Huaiji, I felt that the big head and the second dog called like this, which seemed to be very unimposing, so these two were used to calling their full names very formally.

Carrying the equipment bag on his shoulder, Fat Man Wen and Fat Ball ran over, and Du Ziteng said to Fat Man Wen: "Uncle Wen, okay?" No, I'll bring the fat balls in. โ€

Wen Fat Man shook his head with a smile, immediately stripped himself naked, took out the underwear in the equipment bag and put it on, and then put on the three-layer iron armor that he had never forgotten, and then it was not too hot at all, and then put on the hand-dyed camouflage uniform, hung the two revolvers, nodded at Du Ziteng, carried the small cloth bag handed by the latter, pulled the fat ball that was also equipped, and slowly crawled from the corner to the pile of rocks.

A dozen or so sentinels holding gongs, they also drank a lot of wine, and they were all a little drunk at this time, and it was the darkest season near dawn, all of them closed their eyes, leaning on the mountain stones to act as an ornament there, unless it was the galloping horses' hooves or the footsteps of more than a dozen people, if they didn't want to wake them up, they couldn't just wake them up, not to mention the fat man and the fat ball, they all restrained their steps as carefully as possible.

From the cloth bag, the fat man took out the two explosives bags, stuffed them in the middle of the pile of rocks, and then motioned to the fat ball to slowly pull the fuse out of the fuse, and he himself grabbed the sand and scattered it on the two fuses, so that even if someone on the rebel side looked over, it would not be too eye-catching.

The guards of the officers and soldiers were much stronger than those of the rebels, at least there were patrolling soldiers at the mouth of the valley, and they were all border soldiers, and it seemed that the sergeants who walked around were not night blind, and those who were on standby in the back were likely to have more or less night blindness, and they could barely see where the other party was until the rockets were fired and the torches were fired.

But the soldiers and horses from the border army, the quality of individual soldiers is really not bad, although I couldn't find Wen Fatzi, but the fat ball in camouflage uniform, lying in the long grass more than ten steps away from the sentry, the other party became alert, took off the carved bow and looked over here.

Fortunately, the fat ball was well prepared, and a small white pennant was raised in the grass, but it was obvious that he overestimated the other party's vision, and the soldier's night vision was not very good, at least he couldn't see a palm-sized white flag from a distance of thirty meters, and he only felt that there was something wrong in that direction, so he immediately bent his bow and arrow, and was about to shoot.

But there was a cold thing lying around his neck, and he heard someone say softly: "A certain soldier under the command of Ding Rongcheng was ordered to come and deliver the official document to Shi Taibao." Slow down, put down the bow and arrows, such a matter is urgent, please send it to the Taibao as soon as possible. The soldier did not panic, took the bow and arrow, took the letter, but took a step back, and said coldly, "On the battlefield, forgive me!" As he spoke, he called a few patrol soldiers to come over, and whispered a few words, and those people immediately surrounded Wen Fat Man with their long knives, and two more people ran to the long grass, and dragged him over with their knives on the neck of the fat ball.

Shi Pu is more than seventy people, and he is trapped in the center of the valley and is irritable, so he has already gotten up at this time. At present, it is blocked by the enemy army here, although there are city defense soldiers and horses left in the city of Wuzhou Mansion, but the army is fighting on the outside line according to his own strategy, as Zhao Fu revealed, if it were not for the rumors that there was a royal history to attack him with old things, Shi Pu would not have been able to lure the enemy. The problem is that there is no one in charge of the overall situation in Wuzhou Mansion at all, Zhao Fu attacked a few times the day before yesterday, but obviously he couldn't even enter this valley, and the terrain of various mountain gorges in Duqiao Mountain was stuck by Hou Dagou's soldiers and horses.

"Even if the prefect of Wuzhou fights for power, there are no soldiers to adjust!" Shi Pu stroked his beard miserably and smiled bitterly.

The staff was also helpless at this time, but they had to persuade him: "Boss, Ding Rongcheng is in Huaiji, and he still has the first division of the Ming Dynasty under him, which is a strong army that defeated Hou Dagou's soldiers and horses...... As long as we wait for help, as soon as the soldiers and horses of Ding Rongcheng arrive, they will join forces and kill this thief, which is a miracle! โ€

Shi Pu glared at the staff, shook his head and said, "If you are in a hurry, you shouldn't seek medical treatment indiscriminately." Ding Rongcheng is a shrewd person, he has a goal and will never go out lightly; and then the battle of Huaiji, but it was a trick, he really dared to wave his army to save him, and it was just to add some achievements to Hou Yi. This is the end of the border soldiers who entered the mountain, and the new army that has been trained for several months has done anything? Is he really an Abang rakshasa? (To be continued......)
