Chapter Eighty-Eight: Martial Arts Supreme
Although the voice of the deer stick was not very high, the people on the stage and those close to the stage heard it, and the news quickly spread to the audience.
Yang Xiao asked, "How could Wang Baobao come here?" ”
Lu Zhu Ke said: "Wang Baobao was originally leading troops to reinforce Lunan and fight against Han Shantong's rebel army, but somehow, halfway through, he got the news that Sect Master Wei and others were gathering here, so he turned to Mount Tai, saying that he wanted to capture Sect Leader Wei, the big leader of the anti-thieves, in order to deter the rebels from all over the country. ”
Hebi Weng said: "Sect Master Wei, the Mongolian cavalry is marching fast, please make plans early!" ”
"I didn't expect Wang Baobao to want to take my head so much, and he didn't even care about Lu Nan, who was in a tight war." Long Tao said with a smile.
At this time, the news has been completely spread in the square, although the Mongols have already entered the Central Plains, but the reckless group of heroes have always regarded them as Yidi, unrestrained, as soon as they heard that the Yuan soldiers were coming to attack the mountain, even if there were many people shouted, to go down the mountain together to kill the Tartars.
There are also old and serious people who oppose it, thinking that the other side has 50,000 elite soldiers, which is ten times the number here, and even if a few Tartars are killed, the group of heroes will definitely suffer heavy casualties, and they should avoid their peaks for the time being.
The square suddenly became noisy.
Shaolin abbot Master Kongwen announced the Buddha's horn, and the sound suppressed the audience, and then said to Long Tao: "Sect Master Wei, your sect has been dealing with the Yuan soldiers in recent years, when it comes to marching and fighting, you are the great experts, please ask the master of the Wei sect to lead the group, everyone listens to your orders, whether you fight or go, it all depends on dispatch!" ”
The leaders of the six factions also echoed one after another, and the heroes outside the arena had just seen Long Tao's peerless martial arts, and knew that the Ming Sect had really won a lot of battles in recent years, and they were convinced by Kongwen's proposal.
Even more young people shouted: "Please take the Wei sect leader to kill the Tartars!" ”
Long Tao said loudly: "Thank you for not giving up, now that the situation is urgent, although I am young and knowledgeable, I have no choice but to take the position of commander for the time being." ”
When the heroes heard him agree, many people cheered.
Long Tao asked Hebi Weng: "Mr. He, when will Wang Baobao's military horse arrive?" ”
"When we came, the army was approaching Tai'an, and it is estimated that it will be reached within four hours. ”
Long Tao thought for a moment, and then shouted loudly: "Everyone, I have decided to use my example as bait, drag Wang Baobao's army, and wait for Han Shantong and Zhu Yuanzhang's men to eat his 50,000 elite soldiers!" This battle is quite risky, you are all extraordinary, four hours is enough for you to evacuate this place safely, friends who want to evacuate, please leave as soon as possible now, if you want to kill the enemy, follow and fight to the death with the Tartars! ”
Most of the heroes were bloody, and they fled without a fight, but they were unwilling to do so, and they shouted one after another: "I am willing to follow the Wei Sect Master to fight to the death with the Tartars!" ”
Long Tao immediately arranged: "King Wei Bat, since Wang Baobao is preparing to reinforce Lunan, there must be my Sect Army nearby, please take someone to contact Han Shantong as soon as possible, inform him of the situation here, and let him lead his troops to outflank him from behind and surprise attack Wang Baobao." ”
Wei smiled and left.
Long Tao said: "The Mongols are unparalleled in the world, which is conducive to the battle of the plains, and the giant wood banner and the thick earth flag quickly go to the front road to find a mountain that is conducive to blocking, and make a huge stone to beat the wood, and prepare to ambush the Yuan army, and we will entangle with them on the mountain." ”
The two flag bearers also led the order with their men.
Long Tao continued: "Please ask the abbot of Kongwen to lead the six factions, the elder of the Gong Gong to lead the beggars to help the children, and the rest of the heroes are divided into five teams, temporarily commanded by the two envoys of the sect and the three Dharma kings, everyone will give a unified order, and they must not fight separately!" ”
Seeing that he had arranged it properly and commanded him, the heroes responded to the order.
After a while, more than 5,000 people divided into seven teams and stood in front of the wooden platform.
Long Tao stood on the stage, the dragon slaying sword was held high above the top, and shouted loudly: "Today is a bloody battle, and the Taishan Conference will be famous all over the world!" ”
The blood of the heroes surged, shouting and responding together, and the sound shook the four fields.
Three hours later, Long Tao led the heroes to lie in ambush on a mountain, and everyone held their breath and stared at an avenue below the mountain.
After a while, the sound of horses' hooves came from the far end of the road, and a team of Mongolian cavalry appeared in the field of vision.
This is Wang Baobao's vanguard troops, in order to rush to Mount Tai as soon as possible, the cavalry is in front, the infantry is behind, the front team is injured and retreats, causing a riot, people and horses trample each other.
When the heroes saw that they had won the first battle, they were all excited, and they only hated that they had no bows and arrows around them, and they couldn't kill more Tartars.
Long Tao knew that Wang Baobao's troops were by no means easy to deal with, and their purpose in this battle was not to kill the enemy, but to drag the other party.
The horn sounded in the rear of the Yuan army, the formation quickly changed, and the infantry army began to attack the mountain.
The heroes had already prepared, and a round of boulders went down, and the Yuan soldiers suffered another wave of casualties.
The trumpets sounded again, and the Yuan army scattered in all directions, surrounding a small hill.
Long Tao knew that the real vicious battle was about to begin, and seeing that the Yuan soldiers under the mountain were densely packed and could not see the edge at a glance, he immediately let out a long roar and shouted: "The guard wall is here!" Can Wang Baobao dare to come to fight? The voice came out with a deep internal force, and everyone on the battlefield heard it clearly.
Long Tao naturally knew that Wang Baobao did not dare to fight, he drank like this, firstly, to tell Wang Baobao that he was on the mountain, and secondly, he also wanted to hit the morale of the Yuan soldiers, and the people worshipped heroes.
Wang Baobao was never seen on the battlefield, and the Yuan soldiers began to attack the mountain in rounds.
The heroes are divided into four directions, Kongwen leads the people of the six major factions to respond in the center, the Yuan soldiers attack below, and in the mountains, the effectiveness of the battle formation is greatly reduced, and the heroes are all strong in martial arts, and they can play the effect of one as ten.
Three hours later, the heroes were suppressed by the bows and arrows of the Yuan army and lost the first line of defense on the mountainside.
After another two hours, the Yuan soldiers began to set fire to the mountain, and Long Tao had already prepared, and the trees from the mountainside to the top of the mountain had been cut down by the giant wooden flag.
The fire burned for two hours, and the heroes were trapped on the top of the mountain.
Another two hours passed, and the darts of the heroes had been exhausted, and nine out of ten were already injured.
At this time, it was close to noon on the second day, and under the bright sun, I saw that the mountains were full of soldiers, and ants gathered up.
Everyone knows that they have reached the last moment to break through, but the number of Yuan soldiers is amazing, and there are only a few who can escape alive in the end, but this battle has dragged the Yuan army here for so long, killing tens of thousands of enemies, even if they die, they can have no regrets, and a heroic generosity has risen in everyone's hearts.
At this moment, Long Tao suddenly pointed his knife at the bottom of the mountain and laughed loudly, and the black light on the pitch-black dragon slaying knife shone brightly.
Everyone followed his gaze, only to see the direction of Long Tao's blade, pointing directly to a large embroidered gold flag not far from the mountain, and a young general under his command rode a tall white horse, surrounded by a group of monks, looking at the mountain from afar.
At the last moment, Wang Baobao finally appeared!
Long Tao let out a long roar and swooped down.
The black sword flashed, and where the dragon slaying knife passed, the severed limbs and remnants flew sideways, and the Yuan soldiers attacking the mountain could not stop Long Tao for a moment.
He brandished a big sword, like a black dragon chopping waves, branching out a bloody path in the sea of Yuan soldiers, and went straight to Wang Baobao.
Wang Baobao waved his hand, and ten thousand arrows behind him shot at Long Tao.
Long Tao danced in a circle, only to hear the sound of banging and popping, and the sharp arrows shot by him were knocked away, and the Yuan soldiers around him fell to the ground one after another.
There were only twenty zhang left from Wang Baobao, and Long Tao jumped up, crossed the ten-zhang void, and slashed head-on with a knife.
Five swords, five swords, and ten King Kong rushed together, the dragon slaying knife was pressed by black light, the swords were folded together, and the ten King Kong and ten broken arms flew out together.
The distance is only ten zhang left, Wang Baobao finally changed color, the four rods of King Kong waved the staff to block, Long Tao slashed horizontally, the four rods were broken together, and the four King Kongs were in different places.
The dragon slaying knife went around the body, and it was another slash, the knife qi passed everywhere, and everything was slashed, and the head of the white horse under Wang Baobao's crotch was split in half, and the knife qi and body broke through his silver armor, just touching his skin.
Wang Baobao was drenched in cold sweat, he had already closed his eyes and was waiting to die, but when he opened his eyes again, he saw that Long Tao had put the pitch-black big knife across his neck, and was looking at him with a smile.
At this scene, the heroes on the mountain only watched the blood boiling, and when Long Tao restrained Wang Baobao, everyone couldn't help but shout in unison: "Martial arts supreme, sword slaying dragon, command the world, don't dare to disobey!" ”
Long Tao stood beside Wang Baobao, and suddenly heard the shouts of killing in the rear of the Yuan army, and the reinforcements of Han Shantong and Zhu Yuanzhang finally came.
