Chapter 166: Miserable
The situation in the mountains and forests is not good, and the gorge is no better either.
King Liang had a cave dug in the cliff of the gorge at some point, and as soon as they entered the gorge, they were shot to death by the archers in the cave.
There are also capable generals on King Qi's side, especially the guy named A-Ying in the rebel army.
More than a dozen of the Xianfeng troops began to climb the cliff, trying to go up and kill the archers, but the good king seemed to be able to anticipate their movements, and some people began to cast fishing nets from the cliff holes, and before long a few people were killed by arrows.
In the dark of the night, it was impossible to see where the arrows came from.
Bai Ying swung his sword to slash the fishing net on his body, and saw that many people in the rebel army around him were shot, and he couldn't bother to think of a way to reverse the situation for the time being, so he roared and retreated, and began to save people with his sword.
This battle can't be fought with Ben, the overwhelming situation, no matter how many people come in, they will become corpses, he doesn't like this kind of reckless rush, and he doesn't want to watch his own people die in vain.
Bai Ying is the leader of the rebel army, and when he asks everyone to retreat, everyone will naturally listen to him, after all, no one wants to die.
But King Qi, who was standing behind, was not happy, and when he saw those people starting to attack, he retreated and almost smashed the frame.
"Brother Fu, how did your subordinates come back, they are so greedy for life and afraid of death, how can they achieve great things?"
There was a stout man of about thirty standing beside Wei Hao, and when he heard this, he immediately bowed his hand and said, "Don't worry, Lord Wang, I will immediately step forward and lead everyone to kill again." ”
Fu Bo was also very angry when he watched those people turn around, this time the people under his command were the first, it was a good opportunity to make meritorious contributions, how could he lose face for himself!
Fu Bo rode on his horse, held a big knife and shouted, "Military discipline is like a mountain order, whoever dares to escape from the battle will be dealt with by military law." ”
Originally, some people had already turned back, and when they heard him stand there stupidly like this, they didn't know how to react at all.
At this moment, Tuba ran from behind the crowd.
"Big brother, there are many traps such as the Gorge Pass, and we will not avoid other plans, but will only let people eat meat."
Tuba's face was covered with blood, but he did not kill a single enemy, and the people of King Liang not only released arrows in the cave, but also dug a trench in front, and finally escaped the arrow array, and fell into the ditch of knives.
The gorge is narrow and long, and it can't be carried up in one nest, so it's just a queue to go in and die.
"It's a big thing, sacrifice is inevitable, I wait for hundreds of thousands of troops, but I can't reach more than 10,000 soldiers and horses of King Liang? You cowards! ”
Fu Bo was so angry that he took the lead in leading the team, "If you don't kill me in the past, you won't see the sun tomorrow." ”
He was the first to smash his horse forward, and when the men at the mouth of the gorge heard that they were to be dealt with by military law, they had to pick up their knives and rush with them.
However, the group did not rush far before they saw a huge fireball rolling down the cliff.
The second wave of attacks began......
For a while, the wailing shook the sky, and no matter how interested the people were contaminated with the flames, they could only be burned.
Fu Bo was dumbfounded as he looked at the gorge like hell on earth, and he didn't have the strength to move forward at all.
"Retreat, retreat......"
Bai Ying was still in the gorge, buying more time for his people to flee for their lives, while those who rushed in would only instinctively turn around and flee for their lives when they saw this situation.
On the top of the cliff of the gorge, Wei Li was dressed in black and looked down at the situation under the mountain, and he could see the brave and fearless man who had been breaking behind.
Originally, he prepared a strong crossbow, but at this time, looking at this scene, he didn't plan to use it, but gestured to the lieutenant general behind him.
The lieutenant general will hold the flag in his hand to convey the message below.
After a while, a long horn sounded in the mountain gorge.
The voice echoed in the cliff, shaking the ears of the people below and their chests tightened, coupled with the fact that they were in such a life-and-death situation, those people in the gorge did not even have the last trace of resistance strength, and their faces were like ashes.
After the sound of the trumpet, the attacks of all sides came to an abrupt end, and someone shouted among the cliffs, "Heaven supports the right way, and if you judge the way and do it, you will be destroyed." Tongzhou rebel army, put down the anti-flag and return to King Shunliang, but you can spare the crime of not dying......"
The sound of Zhao'an from far to near, not long, a large number of pieces of paper fell from the sky, through the light of the fire, literate people recognized that it was the Zhao'an notice of the good king, not only to avoid the death penalty, but also to enter the barracks can also freely choose to go to the front line or take care of the rear, all kinds of Yulu and the regular army is no different.
This condition should not be too good!
The person who was originally running for his life quickly stuffed a few in his arms while no one was paying attention.
Wei Hao's chariot kept being rushed over to report the battle situation ahead, and there was nothing to do in this kind of mountain, forest and gorge road, after all, he couldn't see the situation in front clearly.
Hearing that the two teams were evenly straddled and were fleeing for their lives like a plate of loose sand, King Qi was so angry that his face turned red, and he was persuaded by the staff around him, and finally beat the drum and retreated.
In the camp tent, King Qi sat on a mahogany chair, and the generals below knelt on the ground.
This is the second time that I have failed to break through, and the first time I said that it was just a temptation, this time I was determined to win, why did I lose before I started!
How ridiculous an army of more than 100,000 people is.
"Wait, do you have anything to say?"
King Qi coldly looked at Fu Bo and his two right-hand men who were kneeling in the middle, this time he was too disappointed.
Fu Bo bowed his head and was speechless, and Bai Ying next to him arched his hand and said, "Lord Wang, the good king is cunning and weird with his soldiers, and it is not easy to attack when the horse steps on the pass. ”
"Waiting for the right moment? The court has already sent troops to fight, and we are still hesitant, do we want to die outside this horse stepping pass? ”
King Qi slapped the table and squinted at Bai Yingdao, who was kneeling on the ground, "A-Ying, the battlefield is no better than your bandits' den, and casualties are inevitable, if it weren't for your previous assassination, you would have been in a different place a long time ago." ”
This was a warning, Bai Ying hung her head silently, feeling aggrieved in her heart, and did not think that her previous actions were at fault.
His attitude is undoubtedly stimulating the nerves of King Qi, this kid is a rare capable person, King Qi did not intend to punish him, at this time, he refused to admit his mistakes, and he was simply challenging his authority.
"Come on, pull A-Ying down for me and lock him up first."
Wei Hao couldn't tolerate it, and decided to give these unruly mountain bandits a little shock.
After he finished speaking, two soldiers came in to pull people, Fu Bo kept his head down and didn't say anything, but Tuba panicked, and quickly stopped him, "Lord Wang, the retreat is purely a scoundrel, our army's Xianfeng troops have lost nearly 10,000 people, and if they don't retreat, they will be destroyed." Tuba snorted with his head, "Please think twice." ”
He lost so badly just now, how could this matter make him think twice, Wei Hao closed his eyes, "Pull it down." ”
"Lord Wang, Lord ......"
"Besides, it's with you." Wei Hao slapped the table again, no one dared to speak now, and Bai Ying did not resist the whole process, as if he was silently accepting this punishment.
