Chapter 43: Liu Ji and Lan Yu
Before Lin Tao could say anything, he heard the horn whining, and more than ten horses galloped over.
I saw that the first horse shook a golden long sword and shouted: "The prince has an order, immediately withdraw the troops!" ”
After hearing this, Wang Baobao was unwilling in his heart, but when he turned around, he could see that the direction of Guhe County was fiery red, and the wolf smoke rolled up had reached dozens of zhang high.
Seeing this, the remaining Mongol soldiers also hurriedly gave up fighting, and the front army changed into a rear army and retreated down the mountain.
Lin Tao was relieved, a few ups and downs, and he had rushed to the front of the Emei people, and everyone saw the head of the house turn around, shouting in unison, and their spirits were greatly lifted.
Xiao Zhaoxi shouted: "Childe, you come to command!" ”
Lin Tao shook his head: "I can't do it." Or are you commanding well. Wait for me to rush and kill a few of his officers with troops. ”
Only a few sounds were heard, a few arrows shot towards him, Lin Tao waved the sword of leaning on the sky, and the arrows fell one by one, his arm shook, and the arrows scattered in all directions were held in his hands. As soon as he sent forward, several centurions were pierced through the chest by arrows and nailed to the ground. The soldiers shouted loudly, and the pace of retreat quickened a few points.
"The enemy army is in chaos, quiet and weak, notify the mercenary group under the mountain, you can continue to hunt!"
The mercenary group, it was Lin Tao who gave the name to those hunting groups under the mountain, and no one thought that this name would later become the most feared nightmare of the Yuan soldiers!
When he arrived at the Snake Bend Gorge at the bottom of the mountain, Wang Baobao finally got further information, and the situation was much worse than he thought.
"All the grain and grass hoarded in Guhe County were burned by the flames, and countless green-skinned scoundrels poured into the city in an attempt to sneak attack the Chinese army's big tent. Hope to return quickly, otherwise something will happen! ”
"Damn it!" Wang Baobao clenched the note tightly and shouted: "General Zamu, I will take the first step, and this place will be handed over to you, and you must bring the army back safely." "Say that the dust is flying, and I will ride away from the dust.
Guhe County, the young general looked at the sea of fire in the sky, and couldn't help but say excitedly: "My lord is really clever, this fire has burned all over Guhe County, I'm afraid that the Yuan soldiers can't extinguish it even for two days and two nights. ”
"Where, where!" The scribe waved his hand modestly, but the smugness on his face could not be concealed, and he said in his heart: "Today's matter, I'm afraid that Kong Ming is reborn, and he can't do better than me." The reckless person in charge of Emei, seeing this ability, will not dare to despise me! ”
After a moment of complacence, the scribe said, "It is not advisable to stay here for a long time, you go and gather your troops and horses, and we must leave before Marshal Kukutmul returns!" ”
The young general nodded, and was about to get up, but saw that the gate was slammed open from the outside, and several bearded generals led hundreds of soldiers to surround the courtyard at once.
"It's better that the county commander is not busy leaving, the prince has an order, please go to the Chinese army's tent to talk about it, if you resist, you can kill it!"
"Impossible!" The scribe looked shocked, and said in his heart: "I have done this seamlessly, and I have never left any handle, and it will take three or five days for the prince to track me down." ”
But after thinking about it, the scribe was relieved again, he ignored one thing, the Han people are probably like pigs and dogs in the eyes of the Mongol prince, and the Mongols will reason with him? At the slightest suspicion, they can give him an axeman.
Looking at the soldiers who kept pouring in, the scribe couldn't help but sigh: "My life is at rest!" In vain, I still compare myself to Zhuge Kongming, it's really beyond my strength! "Shut your eyes and wait for slaughter!
After a long time, it was fine, the scribe couldn't help but have a trace of luck, and when he opened his eyes, he saw that a large group of martial arts people appeared out of nowhere, and they were fighting with the Yuan soldiers, but after a while, the Yuan soldiers in the courtyard were cleared.
"This gentleman is the county magistrate of Guhe County, I am Sun Shao, the leader of the Sanhe Gang, in the name of the head of Emei, I am here to receive support!"
The scribe was stunned for a moment, and muttered, "Master Emei, did he expect that I would be captured by the Yuan soldiers?" ”
Emei Golden Top, scribes and young generals were taken aback when they saw Lin Tao, they didn't expect the world-famous martial arts myth to be so young, and then look at its majesty, like ethereal and solemn, as unfathomable as the sea, thinking of what they have done recently, they are all happy and convinced, bow their heads, and shout: "I have seen the lord!" ”
Lin Tao stretched out his hand to help the scribe and the young general on the ground, and said warmly: "Get up quickly, you two are fortunate to have the help of you this time, otherwise I will be in danger!" ”
If the scribe said that he was still a little proud before, but after what happened just now, he didn't dare to make a big deal anymore, and hurriedly replied: "The lord is serious, with the danger of Emei and the wisdom of the master, he will definitely be able to break the tartar." The subordinates also want to thank the head for his rescue! ”
"I don't know what the two righteous men are called?"
The scribe said: "The subordinate name is Liu Ji, and the word Bowen!" ”
The young general said: "The subordinate is named Lanyu, and there is no word yet." ”
Lin Tao only felt very familiar when he heard these two names, but he didn't pay much attention to them. Seeing that these two people looked deferential, they were also very satisfied, his subordinates were either people in the martial arts, or people in the countryside, and they were lacking this kind of civil and military generals from professional backgrounds, and the two of them could be regarded as a send-off in the snow.
At this moment, Jingxu walked in from outside the door, saluted and said, "Master, the battlefield has been cleaned, please show the rest of the matters!" ”
Lin Tao nodded, turned to look at the temporary battle map behind him, and said: "Now that Guhe County is on fire, and the Yuan soldiers have lost their military food and equipment, the army must be in chaos, and there are nearly 200,000 villagers under our mountain, so it is advisable to pursue it by victory."
Speaking of this, Lin Tao paused, turned to Liu Ji and Lan Yu and said, "I don't know what the two of you think?" ”
Lan Yu was younger in the end, and said first: "I have also seen those villagers under Mount Emei, although the strength is insufficient, but the courage is available." Now our side is fighting the minority with the majority, the weak with total victory, and the injustice with great righteousness, and we must win! ”
It was hard to help what she said, Lan Yu walked directly to the battle map and said: "You can send a large army to outflank the Yuan soldiers from the left flank, where there are mostly infantry, which are weak, but they can be defeated." Another army was sent from the center ~ inserted, at this time there are still nearly 10,000 soldiers in the city for the Guhe County guards, with my henchmen, can be the internal response, the inside should be combined with the outside will be able to break the Yuan soldiers. ”
"If the head of the sect can ask the rest of the sects to help, supplemented by some small forces, he can cut off the back road of the Yuan soldiers from the three directions of Qingyang, Beijun, and Nanling, and form a situation of encirclement of the Yuan soldiers!"
After saying that, Lan Yu knelt directly on the ground and shouted: "Please give me 200,000 Xiangyong, and my subordinates can issue a military order to break the Yuan soldiers in three days!" ”
Lin Tao was overjoyed and said with a smile: "The disciples of the six major sects will arrive before tomorrow, since you are so confident, then"
"Lord!" Liu Ji suddenly bowed to the side and said: "Although you can win a battle with the army of the royal road, you will inevitably suffer heavy losses." It is not easy for the lord to get elite soldiers, and fighting hard with the Yuan soldiers at this time will only let the rest of the people sit and reap the benefits of the fisherman, which is very unwise. ”
With a faint smile on his face, Liu Ji said confidently: "My subordinates have a plan that can make the Yuan soldiers retreat without attacking!" ”
