Chapter Twenty-Four: Sudden Change
The cool night breeze suddenly warmed up a little, the birds and birds in the distant woods were frightened, and the ignorant insects in the near distance chirped one after another, peaceful and natural, but they converged into a murderous prelude.
Pitang under the moonlight seems to be a big tripod on the fire, which will boil at any time, boiling the people in it into an imperial platform above 10,000 people, and boiling it into a golden medal with power over the world.
It's close.
In the dark forest, there was finally a small and broken sound, and the accompanying guards protected several princes in the middle, raising their round shields and preparing to resist.
The insects and birds do not move, and they sing in unison. Where there is no sound, thunder rises. In an instant, a cold light like a rainstorm hitting a plantain shot out, dozens of feather arrows attacked from all directions, and the sound of breaking the sky came in an instant.
The round shield is small, and it is difficult to resist such a dense attack. The gold and stone exchanged troops, sparks flew everywhere, and in an instant, several guards were hit by arrows and fell to the ground.
Without waiting for the follow-up soldiers to fill the vacancy, the second round of arrow rain arrived.
Yang Shaoyu, the king of Qin, said in a loud voice: "No! We can't just stick to it and let them shoot arrows, which is equivalent to catching them! ”
"Get out!" Yang Shaofang raised his sword in his hand, pushed aside the guards in front of him, and rushed out of the crowd first.
He was aroused to blood, swung his long sword to block a few arrows, and shouted angrily: "Brothers, kill with me!" ”
The crown prince struggled to take the lead, and the rest of the people were so angry that they all rushed over.
In order to avoid excessive losses due to the attack on the bow and crossbow, they each divided into threes and threes to support each other.
At this time, there was a sudden shout of killing behind the dense forest.
Yang Shaofang contemplated and shouted, "It's General Du's ambush coming, hurry up and take the opportunity to join forces!" ”
Several princes rushed to the front.
Sword Light Zhuo Wu, Li Lingyi also killed several people in a row, and couldn't help but cause an exclamation.
Under the fire of the two soldiers, the Assassins were quickly ambushed.
Deputy Commander Yan Linzhang brought more than 100 people to come and replied: "Your Highness, a total of thirty-two thieves have all been ambushed, and you can carefully search for evidence. ”
Yang Shaofang wiped the bloodstains, looked at Shen Xingjian, and hurriedly said, "Let's leave here quickly, the Jingnan Army will arrive soon!" ”
"Jingnan Army?" Yan Linzhang was inexplicably surprised.
Before he finished speaking, the distant Ming Yu went straight to the night sky, and the earth began to tremble, and the Pitang Pond was agitated, and the ripples were stirring, and this big Ding was about to boil.
"It's too late!" Shen Xingjian said in a deep voice, "The Jingnan Army has surrounded Pitang Mountain, and we can only hold on to it according to the danger, and wait for the Luancheng Army to have a chance of survival!" ”
"And listening to this movement, the Jingnan Army seems to have no disguise and is wearing armor all over its body!" King Han said coldly.
Yang Shaofang pondered for a moment, immediately made a decision, and ordered: "Pitang Mountain is a lonely peak Jedi, it is difficult for cavalry to move, easy to defend and difficult to attack, hurry up the mountain!" ”
The roar became more and more deafening, and the thunder swept in the momentum of thousands of troops, almost leveling Pitang Mountain.
There are only two roads leading to the top of Pitang Mountain, which are steep but wide enough for two horses.
Yang Shaofang has a total of about 180 people at the moment, which is not much, and most of them are lightly equipped, so the speed is very fast.
When I got to the top of the mountain, I only heard the neighing of people under the mountain, and the torches were continuous, and the situation was already very critical.
Yang Shaofang's mind was in a hurry when he went up the mountain, and he had a plan in his chest.
He immediately issued a military order, made arrangements, and said in a neat voice: "Erlang! ”
"In!" Yang Shaoyu, the king of Qin, stepped forward and hugged his fists.
"You lead sixty men to hold the front, spread more wood and rolling stones, and use less bows and arrows!"
"Yes!" Yang Shaoyu, the king of Qin, took the order.
Yang Shaofang said again: "Yan Linzhang! ”
"The last general!"
"You lead sixty men to stick to the rear passage, and you also have more sassal wood rolling stones!"
"Yes!" Yan Linzhang immediately picked up sixty people and went to the rear.
Yang Shaofang said again: "The rest of the people are divided into a team of ten people, responsible for carrying the rolling stones and making the wood to supply them to fight!" ”
And they received their orders, and they got busy.
Yang Shaofang practiced it and gave up his beloved sword to chop trees and cut branches.
So far, the matter has exceeded his expectations, and at that time, he never thought that King Zhao would mobilize the Jingnan Army privately in order to complete his work, which is really incredible.
And judging from this incident, King Zhao has not only been "idle" and "has nothing to do" in the Jingnan Army in recent years, but has been a loyal general, a soldier, and can establish such a prestige without relying on a war, but it is not worthy of his name as a pillar country.
Yang Shaofang regretted it very much in his heart, not regretting that he had personally stepped into the danger, but regretting that he had involved King Qin, King Han and Li Lingyi.
If there is really any loss today, then tomorrow's world of Daqi will belong to King Zhao, and the Wei family will become the first powerful minister of the new dynasty, and no one can restrain its edge.
The Jingnan army attacking the mountain extinguished the fire torches in order to hide their figures, which made it more difficult for those who held on to exert their strength.
Fortunately, the sky is beautiful, and the long wind suddenly rises, wiping Haohao's blue sky spotlessly, such as the moon of Hook Tooth is also a little brighter.
By the moonlight, the Jingnan army continued to attack, like a continuous wave, which was the usual method used by the Great Qi army when attacking the fortifications, especially when the enemy was weak and I was strong, so that the enemy had no time to breathe.
Looking at the vast heaven and earth, waves of armor soldiers rushed to kill, Zhao Wang Yang Shaoding looked at the horse from afar, and suddenly felt high-spirited, he smiled at Wei Zhuang Chong, the Duke of Fuguo, who was traveling with him: "After tonight, the East Mansion will change hands, and the Duke of Fuguo is the first-class hero of this palace!" ”
Wei Zhuangchong also dismounted very seriously, and bowed his hand and said: "The old minister sees His Royal Highness the Prince!" ”
Zhao Wangzhi was full of pride and laughed, as if the world had been included in his sleeve.
The Jingnan army continued to rush and kill, the wood and stones on the top of the mountain had been exhausted, and the bows and arrows were gone.
The soldiers who adhered to orthodoxy stained their robes with blood, Yang Shaoyu wiped the blood from his face, and bowed to Yang Shaofang with a solemn face, "Big brother, the wood and stone bows and arrows have been exhausted, and the Luancheng army is nowhere to be seen, so they can only be short-handed, you just follow behind me, and I will rush out of a bloody road!" ”
Yang Shaofang said angrily: "Life is a brother, and death is the same!" How can you be left alone to kill! ”
He raised his sword and shouted to the crowd: "Success or failure in one fell swoop!" Brothers, fight with me to kill the thief! ”
After that, Yang Shaofang told King Qin again, "I am ashamed of my brother for you and San Lang, and I am even more shameless to face Miss Li, now my life is hanging by a thread, and it is not a pity to die for my brother, as long as you, San Lang and Miss Li are safe and sound!" ”
"Big brother!" Yang Shaoting, the king of Han, couldn't help but shed tears, "Brother ......"
"Needless to say!" Yang Shaofang tightly held the bloodstained palms of the two brothers, and looked at Li Lingyi with guilt, "Shiro wants to be the head of his brother, if you ask for good words, you may be able to live, but no matter what, you must remember!" Don't let King Zhao enter the orthodoxy, otherwise the Wei clan and the Zhang clan will have no one to restrain them, and I, Daqi, will also collapse the temple! ”
He smiled at Shen Xingjian again and said, "Brother Shen, it seems that you and I will not escape this catastrophe today, this palace has long heard that Brother Shen learned the Hu Ren sword technique in Dayong, and I only hate to see it, can I dare to compete with this palace today when I have this opportunity?" ”
Shen Xingjian smiled heartily: "Why don't you dare, wait for the ministers to cut off a few heads first!" ”
"Wait, you have to go together, in case you pick up the heads to make up the number, won't the palace be a loss?" Yang Shaofang talked and laughed.
The two of them bowed to King Qin and the others, and said with a smile: "Farewell!" ”
"Your Highness! The minister will go with you! Yan Linzhang shouted with a long knife in his hand.
Yang Shaofang clenched his fists, "In this way, General Lao Yan will see him off." ”
Without waiting for others to rush and kill together, Yang Shaofang, Shen Xingjian, and Yan Linzhang led all the Xiaowu guards into the enemy formation that was close at hand.
In an instant, a scuffle broke out, heads fell to the ground, and thick blood splashed. Heaven and earth bleed day by day, lonely and frightened.
In the chaos of the battle, no one paid attention to the rooster crowing in the distance.
