Chapter 238: Invulnerability
On the mountain road, there was a mess, full of corpses of soldiers of the Liang army.
A group of Yi soldiers dressed in animal skins and armor searched among the corpses of the Liang army, collecting all the armor and weapons on their bodies, and taking away everything they could, including military rations, medicines, and tools.
Jin Xin came to this battlefield with three thousand black dragons, and he couldn't help but be a little surprised.
What the hell is going on?
On that day, in Baocheng Pass, Jin Xin received a report that a Liang army had crossed the pass and marched from the mountain path to the foot of Leishi Mountain. Jin Xin thought that it was too late to send troops to fight for Leishi Mountain, so he sent 5,000 troops and horses to Jirong Mountain, wanting to compete for the balance of power.
When Jin Xin first came to Shu, the path that Liang Jun took was not known to him, but most of the local Shu people didn't know about it.
In fact, this was the safest response at the time, although conservative. There are 60,000 Liang troops outside Baocheng Pass, and if Jin Xin dispatches a large number of troops to attack the mountain, it is likely that Zheng Da will find an opportunity to take advantage of.
After that, Jin Xin sent a messenger to ask Yang Ping for help, and on the other hand, he mobilized the available troops to go to Leishi Mountain to find out the movements of the Liang army, but in the end, he got a letter from Yang Xian that reassured him.
But Jin Xin was not at ease after all, after all, it was the elite of the 10,000 Liang army, and the available troops around Yang Xian were not many. So, after temporarily handing over the defense of Baocheng Pass to Liao Cheng, Jin Xin personally came with 3,000 people to meet Yang Xian, but what he could see was what he was like now.
Who is this army?
In Jin Xin's heart, this doubt arose.
The battlefield had disappeared, and the sporadic soldiers were still sweeping, and when they saw the black sergeant, they didn't seem to show much hostility, but they were very cold.
Among the Yi soldiers, there was a burly general, two people tall, tiger skin soft armor, and several skulls hanging around his neck, which looked very terrifying.
In Jin Xin's suspicious gaze, this Yi general said in a pure Zhou language: "You are General Jin Xin!" I am the Red Vulture under the command of the King of Samoko, and after we repelled the 10,000 Liang troops, those soldiers have retreated. ”
"When did you get here?"
Jin Xin's heart suddenly had this doubt.
"About half a month ago, we arrived in Badi on the orders of the prime minister. Then the prime minister asked me to lead 3,000 soldiers from the Badi Trail to secretly enter Zhounan County and hide on the Leishi Mountain. ”
Jin Xin was greatly surprised in his heart at this moment, not only because of Yang Xian's foresight, but also because of the combat power of this army and horses. There were only 3,000 Yi soldiers, and 10,000 Liang troops were repulsed.
You must know that the Liang army sent by Zheng Da must be a brave and resolute elite. It was this army that ambushed in the mountains first, and attacked when the Liang army was caught off guard, but with only 3,000 troops, this was still an amazing result.
"Where is the Prime Minister now?"
The red vulture has a rough appearance and looks very rough, but in every move, it is the etiquette of the Zhou people. If it weren't for his strange outfit and height, saying that he was a Zhou person, I'm afraid no one wouldn't believe him.
"I don't know, the prime minister just asked us to garrison in the mountains to repel the invading enemy. As for the order for the next step, it has not yet been sent. ”
As soon as Chi Wutu finished speaking, a letter eagle flew in from a distance.
An eagle roared, and the letter eagle fluttered its wings and slowly fell.
The Red Vulture stretched out his arm, and the eagle landed straight on his thick arm. Jin Xin didn't see that he was wearing an arm armor on his hand, and he could actually endure the eagle's sharp claws like a knife.
Chi Wutu took the bamboo tube and waved it casually, and the letter eagle was already far away.
"The prime minister said, let's make peace with the Black Fly Army in Baocheng Pass and attack the Liang army camp. In addition, if General Jin Xin is here, let him send a force of military horses to be stationed on the Liang army's grain road to catch the escaped Liang soldiers. ”
"The last general commands!"
Jin Xin's face was solemn and he gave up.
Liang Jun Grain Road.
Huan Zilu and Di Sheng took a group of defeated soldiers and planned to return from this path.
At this moment, they were very embarrassed, their faces were all gray and black, and the armor outside their bodies had been broken in several places.
Huan Zilu broke into the hinterland of the Shu army with 10,000 Liang troops, and everything was going very smoothly. Even Jin Xin noticed it early and sent troops to occupy Jirong Mountain, and their plan could still be regarded as smooth.
After all, as long as a mountain is occupied, the Shu army can be in chaos and mobilize heavy troops to besiege it, so that Huan Biao's 100,000 army can pass through the Quegu Valley smoothly.
But when Huan Zilu led his soldiers and horses deep into the Leishi Mountain, wanting to occupy a suitable place and build a camp to defend himself, he was suddenly attacked by a group of strangely dressed soldiers.
Huan Zilu immediately ordered the army to counterattack on the spot, because after he observed, he found that the number of Yi soldiers was much less than theirs. But what happened after that was far beyond his expectations.
This group of soldiers suddenly burst into blood, and their bodies swelled several times, becoming invulnerable. Caught off guard, Huan Zilu's 10,000-strong Liang army was beaten and powerless.
As a last resort, Huan Zilu could only lead his troops to retreat. After all, if they can't occupy this rock mountain, they will soon be besieged by the Shu army.
Huan Zilu didn't know where this army of soldiers came from, but he also knew that it was sent by Yang Xian. After running for a long time, he suddenly felt a trace of coolness in his heart, not only because of the combat strength of the Shu army, but also because they were about to walk to the crossing of the rice cang, but suddenly appeared with the big pole.
Prime Minister of the Great Zhou!
The comers speak for themselves!
Yang Xian's four-wheeled vehicle stood in front of the army, so conspicuous. The Shu army did not control the dangerous crossings and blocked the key paths. Yang Xian gave way with a gentlemanly style, as if he wanted to fight with their defeated army in a dignified manner.
Is it because of the lack of troops?
This thought only flashed in Huan Zilu's mind, and he quickly discarded it. Since Yang Xian had already sent his troops to ambush in the rocky mountain, how could he not have enough troops to block the crossroads?
Just thinking about it, Huan Zilu and Di Sheng did not hesitate for a moment, and led the army across the crossing, entered the open area in the middle of the Micang Road, and fought against Yang Xian's men and horses.
But seeing the four-wheeled vehicle, Yang Xian shook the feather fan and smiled softly.
Yang Xian was dressed in a big hat, a lupine scarf, with a graceful demeanor, and a very easy-going smile, but in the eyes of Di Sheng and Huan Zilu, it was full of ridicule, as if he was laughing at their incompetence.
"The two generals have worked hard, and they have gained something?"
As soon as Yang Xian's words came out, Di Sheng and Huan Zilu frowned. The feeling they had just now was not wrong, but Yang Xian was really mocking them.
"Yang Xian, what do you want?"
A nameless fire arose, and under the long journey, Huan Zilu's head was a little dizzy, and his steps were a little empty. Di Sheng helped him, and Huan Zilu stabilized his body.
"Naturally, you're waiting for Zheng Da's reinforcements?"
"You want to use us as bait to lure General Zheng's forces to attack our army's camp?"
Dickson suddenly realized and blurted out.
Huan Zilu's heart was full of anger, but he smiled contemptuously.
"General Zheng has been through ups and downs for a long time, how can he not see your intentions?"
Zheng Da could indeed see it, but he had to save it. If it is an ordinary general, you and Di Sheng are the juniors of the younger generation of the Liang army, and Huan Wu values them the most. Even at the risk of the camp being attacked, he would still divide his troops. ”
As if to confirm Yang Xian's words, behind Di Sheng and Huan Zilu, there was a lot of noise.
