Smoke and dust billowed in the distance, and hooves thundered.

Chen Hong's eyes narrowed, and he quickly raised his binoculars to look into the distance.

That's right, the Jin army was defeated and retreated back from the original route.

"Prepare for the fire." Chen Hong ordered loudly and hid his body behind the stone.

A few large sticks of coarse incense were lit, and cigarettes rose in curls. But they were far away, and they were not worried about the defeated Jin army seeing. Not only them, but even the ambush troops have arrived, and they are hiding in the pass of the valley, dangerous.

Defeating the Jin army is the main goal, but it is also necessary to capture as many war horses as possible, which is what Meng Jiucheng and others have repeatedly discussed. Wang Zhongfeng and Zheng Ruxin also implemented this battle plan well, breaking up the Jin army, breaking the siege, and did not open their mouths and fight a tough battle to annihilate them in one fell swoop.

Wanyan Bode and the others ran so fast that they didn't notice that a trap had been laid in the safe mountain pass when they came.

As soon as the cavalry entered the mountain pass, and there were long horses behind them, they heard a loud bang overhead.

There was a big explosion on one side of the pass, and rocks of all sizes rained down from the sky. In the screams and exclamations, a number of Jin soldiers were stoned to death, and the mountain pass was also tightly blocked.

Wanyan Bode didn't dare to look back at all, listening to the rumble of the stones falling to the ground, the screams of the soldiers, and the neighing of the war horses, he was terrified.

It wasn't until he ran far away that Wanyan Bird was frightened for a while, stopped his horse, and looked back. At first glance, it was like a basin of ice water poured on the top, and Wanyan Bird was stunned on the spot.

No more than twenty or thirty horsemen rushed out with him, and the rest of the men and horses were cut off. The mountain pass was littered with rocks, mixed with the corpses of the golden soldiers, and a few wounded and undead, howling in pain.

Woo, whoa, ah, roar...... On one side of the pass, soldiers in red jackets appeared, brandishing swords and guns, and letting out a defiant roar.

Although it seems that the number is small, it is an insurmountable obstacle for the remaining Jin soldiers.

It's over, it's all over.

Wanyan Bird was discouraged, like a dying wolf letting out a howl like crying. He drew his sword and wiped it off his neck.

With a "dang" sound, the waist knife was knocked down by a personal soldier.

"General—" The soldier's face was full of sorrow, and his throat was choked, and he was speechless for a while.

Wanyan Bird looked stunned, and it took a long time for his eyes to regain some sobriety, and the thought of begging for death faded.

Although victory and defeat are a common thing in soldiers, is there any remedy now? Abandon Michigan and go back in disgrace? Wanyan Bird is unwilling!

But with the few men and horses left behind in Mizhou, it is no longer possible to compete with the thief army. Next, the thief army is likely to take advantage of the victory to attack the city and plunder the land, and go straight to Mizhou.

Perhaps, it can only rely on the Red Turban Army and rely on Meng Jiucheng. As long as they can defeat the gang of thieves "Yang Miaozhen" and avenge themselves, there is no place for him in this Mizhou, right?

The times are different, and the ideas are naturally different. Wanyan Bode led the army to conquer and suppress, but he didn't want Meng Jiucheng to step into Mizhou and continue to sit big. But after the fiasco, he only thought about revenge again, and the weight of Mizhou in his heart became lighter again.

"Let's go, go back to Mizhou (state city)." Wanyan Bird angrily pulled the horse's head and galloped away first.

…………

Wadian Town, located between the state city of Mizhou and Tieyuan Mountain, was occupied by Meng Jiucheng's army at this time.

On the main road seven or eight miles east of the town, the Red Turban Army set up a pocket formation with three battalions. The pocket array stretched for miles, and when the enemy came in, they were surrounded like iron buckets.

Flying thunder cannons, pine cannons, Wuhan Iron and Steel vehicles, and all kinds of weapons and equipment have been arranged, just waiting for news from Tie Yong Mountain.

Meng Jiucheng didn't know how Tie Yong Mountain was fighting, but in line with the principle of prudence and caution, he took out all his troops.

In this case, even if the ambush on Tie Yong Mountain did not achieve much or no success, in this narrow hilly area, relying on a large number of firearms, three battalions would be enough to resist and inflict heavy losses on the Jin army.

When the scout came to the alarm, Meng Jiucheng was still a little surprised. The master also fought too well, and there were only twenty or thirty golden soldiers left, and his own three thousand people were really too careful.

Running all the way down the avenue, Wanyan Bird had a gloomy face and didn't say a word. Such a fiasco made him extremely remorseful, and after thinking about it, only Meng Jiucheng might be able to help him avenge his hatred.

It's just that the cavalry in front slowed down and finally stopped, and Wanyan Bode put away his thoughts, looked at the scene in front of him, and couldn't help but feel cold in his heart, realizing the danger of the situation.

Turning the bend in the road, there were no trees to cover the eyes, and Wanyan Bird saw more than a dozen wooden carts blocking the road to death. Behind the car, the army in red jackets was waiting for it, and the flashes of spears and steel knives dazzled the eyes.

Meng Jiu stood on his horse, looked at the Jin cavalry that had stopped and gathered, and ordered the release of the flag flower rocket. And nearly a thousand infantry stood as solemnly as he did, and the whole position was silent.

The oppressive atmosphere rolled through Jin Bing's heart, and many people found that the hand holding the knife actually slowly began to tremble, tremble, and then, the trembling stopped, and the whole body hardened in an instant, filled with cold battle intent.

Wanyan Bode looked back, although he couldn't see the figure, but the sound of the golden drum was sounding from behind him. Apparently, the retreat was broken, and the enemy did not give him a chance to escape.

Looking to both sides, there are trees and weeds. In the same way, there are drums and human voices, and you can faintly see the figures shaking. Even if there is no one on either side, it is very difficult for the cavalry to gallop through the trees and weeds.

"Those who descend will not be killed, and those who abandon their weapons will not die." Meng Jiucheng shouted.

"Those who descend will not be killed, and those who abandon their weapons will not die." The pro-soldiers shouted in unison.

"Those who descend will not be killed, and those who abandon their weapons will not die." The officers and men of the Red Turban Army shouted vigorously, and the sound shook the four fields.

Wanyan Bird's eyes narrowed, he reached out and patted his horse's head gently, and silently reached out to hold the handle of the big knife.

"General." A pro-soldier stepped forward and said eagerly: "Insert the post and lead the troops to attack the enemy formation, you can retreat through the mountains and forests!" ”

"No more." Wanyan Bode shook his head, his voice turned stern, and he turned to his subordinates and said loudly: "There is a blockade in front, and there are chasing soldiers in the back, we should fight bravely and survive in death, we must not fall into the prestige of our army, and we must not lose the face of the court." ”

"Fight bravely and defeat the thief army." A pro-soldier raised his arms and shouted.

"Fight bravely and defeat the thief army." The desperate situation provoked the violence of the Jin soldiers, who brandished their swords and guns and shouted like wolves.

Fight for one’s life? Wanyan Bode's heart is sad, he fights but does not surrender, there is death and no life!

"Kill!" Wanyan Bird brandished his broadsword and rushed forward.

"Kill!" Twenty or thirty horsemen urged the horses and followed closely with the commander.

Seeing dozens of horsemen rushing towards him, Meng Jiucheng pursed his lips and coldly ordered, "Fire!" ”

The big drum was beaten several times, the flag was shaken, and the front plate of the Wuhan Iron and Steel car was released, revealing the muzzle of the black hole.

"Boom, boom, boom......" Several pine cannons roared in turn, spraying countless gravel and rotten iron at the rushing Jin army.
