Chapter 590: The vicissitudes of the world are full of tribulations
Pang Yi, who is over sixty years old, is getting older and stronger, and the bow and arrow in his hand looks good for the thief, just waiting for an arrow to fly out and take his life. But at this moment, suddenly hearing the noise of outsiders closing the door with his head heavy, and the chaos was unbearable, Pang Yi's heart tightened, and he didn't realize that his hand was a little slow, only to hear the sound of "boom", the strong arrow left the string, and when he looked at it again, he passed by the side of the target's head, and Zhu Tong, who was so startled that he almost walked into the ghost gate, broke out in a cold sweat.
"What's going on?" Pang Yi missed an arrow and didn't make up for it, so he immediately turned around and asked Dang Shiying, who had turned around and watched.
Dang Shiying was also confused at this time, and turned around and said, "That's not right! Knowing that we are waiting here to seize the village, how could Liu Tongzhi lightly let the thieves go ashore? Pang Dujian, could it be that there are other thieves in Qingzhou? ”
"No matter how bad the old man is, he still has a number of plants and trees in Qingzhou! Except for this nest of two dragon mountains, there are no other thieves' nests anywhere else! Pang Yi's face turned red when he heard this, and Dang Shiying's words obviously stimulated his sensitive nerves.
"There are no nearby states?" Just because the situation was urgent, Dang Shiying didn't care about Pang Yi's face at this time, and just asked.
"There are small bandit activities in the neighboring states of Hebei, but the time for our army to send troops to Erlongshan is extremely short, not to mention that they have no reason to rescue, even if this guy wants to come, even if they have wings, they can't win!" Pang Yi frowned.
"That's a problem with Liu's side of the system! There are wounded soldiers of the seventh battalion of our army outside the pass, if they are taken by thieves, how will they go back and explain to Liu Tongzhi? ”
Dang Shiying reacted very quickly, and went down with his own soldiers, Pang Yi was stunned for a moment, and then looked at Dang Shiying's back, and said indignantly: "What do you want to explain to Liu Menglong?" The three battalions of men and horses brought by the Pondu prison are also outside, if there is a mistake, see how he explains to me! ”
I saw Pang Yi release this cruel sentence, and immediately dragged away a big stride. Catch up with Dang Shiying. It is not that these two generals do not care about the life and death of Dang Shixiong, who is fighting in front of him, the actual situation is that even if the pass cannot be attacked in the end, it will not be fatal, and with Dang Shixiong's troops, even if they cannot take advantage of it, they will not be able to suffer losses. However, the unknown origin of the soldiers and horses outside the head pass was worrying, because the two of them had obviously felt the sound of the hooves of a large number of horses galloping.
Let's say that these two generals went down the pass with their own soldiers, and happened to meet the officers who came to report in the urn city. When the officer saw the two of them, he didn't have time to salute, and said straightly: "Bad thing! Out of nowhere, a group of cavalry, about four or five hundred, was very brave, galloping in the formation, just because our army was not in the camp and defenseless, and at this moment there were heavy casualties! ”
Pang Yi couldn't help but glance at Dang Shiying. They all saw a hint of panic in each other's eyes, and as veteran generals who had been in war for a long time, they had already smelled a hint of death. The current situation is clear, and the three infantry battalions of the Qingzhou Army have been disabled when they attacked Touguan. And Dang Shiying's subordinates are sailors, and attacking the city on land is already a super level, how can they be expected to compete with the cavalry?
To be honest, it's no wonder that Pang Yi and the Dang brothers are lax, they are really fighting on their own soil. The Liangshan reinforcements were dealt with by Liu Menglong, and their attention was always on the defenders in the wall. If you want to blame, you can only blame this opponent for not playing cards according to routine and common sense. The timing and place of the appearance were simply incredible, as if they had fallen from the sky, and the figure of an ancient man appeared in their minds at this point: General Fei.
"Shut the door!"
At this time, the two shouted in unison, and the officer who called the arraignment was stunned, and finally came back to his senses, and pleaded bitterly: "Two generals, the brothers are all outside at this time!" You can't abandon them, they, they were all brought out by Liu Tong's hands! ”
"Close the door!" Pang Yi still said this, seeing that the officer's eyes were angry, Pang Yi said sharply: "The military order is like a mountain, Liu Menglong taught you like this?" ”
The anger on the officer's face became heavier and heavier, and he was about to disobey the order, but fortunately, at this time, Dang Shiying came forward to turn around, "Do what Supervisor Pang said, and order the soldiers outside the city to return to the city from the car!" ”
When the officer heard this, he felt better, and immediately glanced at Dang Shiying gratefully, and turned around to give the order. At this moment, Dang Shiying and Pang Yi didn't have time to discuss anything, and went to the city one after another to inspect the war situation.
For the unsuspecting officers and soldiers, on the plains beyond the city pass, there was a nightmare that could not be woken up. I saw this group of cavalry with huge superiority clashing back and forth, "hunting" the frightened light infantry on the flat ground to their heart's content. At this time, the units outside the city were nothing more than five sailor battalions that the Dang brothers had not yet come in handy, and the total number of people was more than 2,000 people, but unfortunately they were not equipped with the Divine Arm Bow. At this time, all they can rely on is the blade in their hands, plus the inertia of "huddling together for warmth". Of course, being able to maintain this inertia under the pressure of the roaring cavalry instead of fleeing in all directions was enough to make them among the elite soldiers of the Great Song Dynasty, of course, there was a big premise, that is, they were still alive after this battle.
Although the leader of this cavalry, Xie Zhen, was born in Orion, but he had "studied" in the Guan Sheng camp, and he still knew some tactical essentials of the cavalry, Guan Sheng's "Don't hit the dignified array" admonition he always kept in mind, at this time, under his leadership, the horse team of the mountain battalion did not attack the organized sailor ranks from the front, but specifically picked the kind of gap between the two battalions to break through, but as long as there was a slight loophole in the opponent's ranks, Xie Zhen, who was born as a hunter, could always keenly seize the opportunity. Take the warrior behind you to infinitely expand this enemy's mistakes.
A whistling is a bloody road, no matter how these lightly armed sailors resist beating, where have they experienced this kind of purgatory? Finally, during Xie Zhen's fifth regrouping charge, the killed and stunned sailors began to rout, and more and more people joined the ranks of the routs and rushed straight to the building car in front of the checkpoint.
"Lin Chong! It must be Lin Chong coming! Pang Yishen gritted his teeth and looked at the horse team galloping under the city, and suddenly scolded: "Straight thief!" Liu Menglong, you don't have to do it yourself, and you will pull your master and me into the water! ”
Dang Shiying frowned when he saw this, and said in his heart If it weren't for you Murong Yanda to come forward, who would have come to kill Erlong Mountain, you must know that all the people brought this time are sailors! It's just that you don't admit such a big favor, why bother to hurt people?
It's a pity that he also discovered Pang Yi's virtue, this person is a smooth donkey, the more he goes against him, the more he chokes, and he holds down the liver fire at the moment, and says: "The old general is a little restless, it's just a team of cavalry, how can you not attack the city." We are guarding this pass, and they will not be able to enter......"
Before Dang Shiying finished speaking, the whole person froze, and he suddenly sadly realized that he had the potential of a crow's mouth, only to see the smoke and dust billowing in the distance, and a group of infantry marching in a hurry, looking at the number of people is afraid of no less than two or three thousand?
It turned out that along the way, the rout soldiers who fled from the Erlong Mountain path were gathered, and seven or eight hundred people were gathered like a snowball. Each of them held back their strength to come back to rescue the brothers who had traded their lives for their lives.
The situation took a turn for the worse, but Pang Yi in the city became more and more angry, seeing that the victory was about to be reached, but it turned into a situation where the thieves were surrounded by thieves, and the nameless karmic fire in his heart swished upward, and he immediately scolded Liu Menglong, a pig teammate. Dang Shiying couldn't persuade him, and his temper also came up, so he simply left Pang Yi alone. He took his own soldiers to the other end of the city.
"What are you doing! Burn the car for me! It's also funny to say that these two siege weapons carefully crafted by Pang Yi have now become his biggest threat.
Most of the sergeants who had just gone to the city were Pang Yi's Qingzhou Army, and they had been ordered by the main general at this time. Where does it matter whether the Jinling sailor lives or dies? They searched everywhere for tinder, lit torches, and threw them at the two wagons next to the city wall, ignoring the friendly troops on the building cars who had covered their successful retreat.
The Jinling sailors had never encountered such an unappetizing friendly army. If you say that the city gate will be closed, you will close the city gate, and if you say that you will burn the building car, you will burn the building car, without considering the life or death of those who are outside the city. It's a loss that they risked their lives to cover the retreat of the Qingzhou army!
At this time, the thieves' horse team did not continue to pursue the remnants, but stopped their horses one after another, raised their bows to suppress the Qingzhou army that crossed the river and demolished the bridge at the head of the city. Seeing this upside-down scene, the Jinling Navy Army frozen on the building car did not mention how complicated the mood was at this time, and many people looked back at the opponent who gave them their first taste of defeat, and they had mixed feelings for a while.
"Whoever descends will not die! Liangshan heroes treat prisoners preferentially! Xie Zhen shouted, and the brothers of the horse team came back to their senses, and many people saw their former selves in the eyes of their opponents.
"Lao Tzu was also an official soldier back then, and now he is in Liangshan, and he is doing very well! If Lao Tzu dies, there is a settlement fee before 100 yuan, how much is it worth if you die? Put down the swords and guns, the heroes of Liangshan will never kill the prisoners! ”
I don't know whether it was the appearance of the former forbidden soldiers that played a role, or the name of Liangshan Bo Renyi spread all over the country, in short, there was a strange scene on the battlefield at this time, I saw two building cars, one person took the lead in spitting in the direction of the city wall, but was killed by an arrow shot by the angry Pang Yi, the situation suddenly became out of control, many Jinling sailors spit on the city wall angrily, and then threw down the blade in their hands, and walked down the stairs car one by one, quite orderly.
"Disarm and don't kill, squat on the spot! Liang Shan counts when he speaks! ”
Xie Zhen saw that the building car was empty, and ordered the two teams to dismount and go to grab the car. The city naturally didn't want to watch the building car being pulled to safety by them, and Pang Yi didn't let go of the arrows, throwing torches out one by one.
After a long time like this, the brigade led by Ji Ji had already approached the city, and Ji Ji immediately ordered Xie Zhen to take the horse team and the minions of Erlong Mountain to guard the prisoners, and he reconciled with Xie Bao, each with seven or eight hundred infantry troops, hugging the building car that Xie Zhen dragged back, and sounded the horn of the counterattack.
At this time, although there are a lot of people in the head pass, there are vaguely two battalions in total, but they are all frightened routs, and it is good to barely keep them scattered at this time, where can they be expected to have a bloody battle with these warriors who swore to save Zhu Tong under the city?
But seeing that the stump under the protection of the shield hand rushed to the juncture, Pang Yi shouted angrily, recognized the stump, and was about to come to fight him with a big knife, but the stump didn't take this veteran in his eyes, he just wanted to fight quickly, solve him with an axe, and go to rescue Zhu Tong. At first glance, I suddenly felt that the old thief's knife technique was powerful and heavy, and I couldn't help but be overjoyed in my heart, and shouted: "The children robbed the city, I'll solve this fight!" ”
After finishing speaking, he devoted himself to fighting with the generals who defended the city. Speaking of Pang Yi's knife, it is really not covered, he actually carried more than 100 rounds of the trip, the kick was secretly surprised, and he couldn't help but think of Aicai, and the axe was pressing at the moment, and Pang Yi was busy covering it.
Seeing this, he shouted "It's a pity", and thought that this person had fallen to death, but he knew that the corpse of the Qingzhou Army when it first attacked the city had not been cleaned up, Pang Yi happened to fall into the pile of corpses, and barely picked up a life, but the injury was not light, and he spit out two mouthfuls of blood from his mouth, and kept shouting: "Liu Menglong mistook me!" ”
At this time, a swarthy man came out from behind him, stepped forward without saying a word, stepped on Pang Yi's chest, and said angrily: "The dog thief who released the cold arrow, you also have today!" ”
Pang Yi saw that it was the big man who had been shot in the arm by himself before, and couldn't help but be shocked: "You...... How did you come from outside the city? In fact, as long as he calms down, he can naturally think of the reason, such a big mountain, there can't be only one way in and out. It's a pity that the great changes in front of him have made him unable to calm down, and he is just shocked at the moment.
Where is Lei Heng a confidant who has to answer questions, holding his Pu knife and slashing towards Pang Yi's neck, who knows that a knife goes down, this curled bladed Pu knife is stuck in Pang Yi's neck, Lei Heng was born as a blacksmith, his strength is infinite, and he goes up violently, and Pang Yi, who is in great pain, is out of breath. The poor pretentious Pang Dujian was cut off in Lei Heng's hands in such a way, which is embarrassing.
Where did he know about this scene under the city, at this time, the officers and soldiers at the juncture did not surrender, but the corpse was ambushed on the spot, only Xie Bao was singled out with Dang Shiying, and when he saw this, he asked his subordinates to command the envoy to lead people to grab the second pass, he stepped forward and took a look, Xie Bao was a little struggling at this time, barely just blocked, and when he saw this, he shouted: "Little liberation get out of the way!" Xie Bao heard the shout of the thief, and rolled on the spot to avoid Dang Shiying's fatal knife, but fortunately, the big axe of the thief had been tightly connected.
Although they are both from Orion, Xie Bao and Xuan Qi are not heavyweights at all, Dang Shiying was able to let go of Xie Bao before, but at this time, under the pressure of Xuan Bao, he only felt that the pressure was doubled. He learned the lesson of the battle against Pang Yi just now, and did not force the opponent to the edge of the city wall again, but chose to knock off the opponent's weapon to end the fight.
"Tie up!" He always remembered what Wang Lun told him: You don't have to kill all the people in the forbidden army, you only remember one thing, they are all your own compatriots.
"Xiao Xie is here to collect and surrender soldiers!" At this time, the brothers who took the pass first had already stepped on the earthen bag and went straight to the wall of the double pass, and the battle to this point naturally did not have much resistance, and it did not take much effort, and the second pass was opened again, and within one day, it ushered in its second fall.
At this time, Dang Shixiong's situation was suddenly embarrassing, what 30 years in Hedong and 30 years in Hexi? It's just a moment of Hedong and a moment of Hexi! Half an hour ago, he was still in his hands on the victory, and took the initiative to ask his brother for his life, wanting to take down this gang of thieves in one go. Unbeknownst to him, the solid rear turned into a purgatory in an instant, Dang Shixiong looked at the helpless sailors around him, and finally ordered: "Run, flee to the mountains!" ”
Zhu Tong really wanted to take the last more than 80 remnants of the army to stop them, but unfortunately at the end of the crossbow, he couldn't enter Lu Min. The decline of the wind cannot be feathered. Zhu Tong suddenly felt as if the strength in his body was suddenly sucked dry by something, and even standing for a while at this time became a heavy burden.
It seems that this situation is not only in Zhu Tong alone, at this time, only the sound of swords and guns falling to the ground is endless, and these more than 80 brothers who are overdrawn are slumped on the ground, leaning on each other, just like on the battlefield just now.
The general who came out of the dirt bag with an axe, Zhu Tong felt familiar, and he suddenly remembered that when he was in Dongxi Village, it was this person who used his strength to restrain Chao Baozheng's dying blow, which made Wang Lun laugh to the end.
It is said that the world is impermanent, but the strange things of the previous years do not add up to as many as these two years! Who would have thought that Chao Baozheng and that Wang Lun would become brothers who would not change their heads? And that filial piety Hei Saburo actually wanted to murder the elder brother and eldest brother who had been friends for more than ten years? And for this Liang Shanbo, who actually has nothing to do with it, he almost lost his life here.
"This river and lake is no longer the river and lake of the past. I'm too old to keep up, and maybe it's time to leave......"
Zhu Tong felt that his eyelids were getting heavier and heavier, and he gradually fell into darkness. (To be continued......)
