Chapter 373: Don't Enter the Valley

After seeing them stop, Marshal Shen gave another gesture, and the soldiers fell back into the grass. In fact, Marshal Shen is a pity at this time, if more people from the northern Xinjiang come in, then their casualties will be heavier, and the pressure on the soldiers of Chaoyang City will be reduced a lot.

After seeing the attack suddenly disappear, the people leading the northern frontier looked up and stopped their eyes on the small hillsides on both sides.

Judging from the direction of the attack just now, there must be people from Chaoyang City ambushed on the hillsides on both sides, but I don't know how many, although it is not impossible for them to rush directly like this, but there will definitely be great casualties.

Last time, a group of people from the Northern Frontier had already been captured by them in Chaoyang City, and if they lost it again this time, they would not be able to afford it.

"Stand back, don't enter this valley."

Marshal Shen on the hillside noticed the movement of the northern frontier, and when he found that they had begun to gradually retreat, his hand slammed into the ground.

"Almost, if only their people could come in a little more." Marshal Shen was very remorseful.

"The people in Northern Xinjiang are very smart, and after being fooled for the first time, they will definitely not be fooled a second time. If they don't make any moves after a while, then we'll have to attack. ”

Marshal Shen took out the map and spread it directly on the grass, and discussed it with Chu Ruoyao, and the two of them discussed and discussed, and there was no particularly good way.

"Marshal, lord, you see that there are fewer people in the northern Xinjiang below." A soldier spotted the anomaly.

A few people looked down, although they couldn't see the problem on the surface, but if they looked closely, it was indeed not as much as just now.

"Do you know where the few people have gone?" Marshal Shen asked the soldier who had just spoken, he had just discussed with Chu Ruoyan so engrossively that he didn't even notice the actions of the people in the northern frontier.

"I don't know." The soldier shook his head.

Marshal Shen looked up at the terrain of the hillside, looked at the map again, and suddenly had a terrible thought.

"Let's go and see our grain and grass in the woods."

When they left before, they left the wagons with grain and grass in the woods, although they were very hidden, but if the people from the north raided from behind, the first thing they encountered would be those carts with grain and grass, and once the grain and grass were burned, then their back road would be blocked.

"Yes, let's take a few people here!" The soldier also realized the seriousness of the situation and immediately called several brothers from the hillside and ran down with them.

"Is it okay for just a few of them? Shall we go along? Chu Ruoyan looked at a few people who had left and said.

If the people in the northern Xinjiang found grain and grass, it would be impossible for them and the soldiers who stayed behind to be opponents at all.

At this time, Marshal Shen was already in a dilemma, if they left, then all the pressure would have to be borne by the soldiers on the other side of the hill.

If they don't leave, then the grain and grass may be in danger, after thinking about it for a long time, Marshal Shen gritted his teeth.

"Let's go, we'll go there too."

When he made this decision, Marshal Shen had no bottom in his heart at all, and he was also gambling. He's blocking the departing Northerners from going around their backs.

If he was wrong, it would prove that the grain and grass were still safe, and he could only rush back as fast as he could.

A few people retreated along the grass, and when they were sure that their departure would not be discovered by the northerners down the hillside, they stood up and ran quickly towards the forest where the grain and grass were kept.

"Marshal, why are you here?" When the soldiers guarding the grain and grass heard the movement, they immediately raised their bows and arrows in their hands. When they found out that the person who came was Marshal Shen, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

"No one from the Northern Frontier has been found here yet, right?" The soldiers shook their heads, and before they could speak, they heard footsteps.

Will the people who came this time be friends or foes? Did the reinforcements that Yang Zhen ran over to call have arrived, or did the people from Northern Xinjiang come to attack?

Everyone held their breath, Marshal Shen motioned for the soldiers to leave the carriage, all of them hid in the grass, staring at the direction of the carriage without blinking, and when they saw the figure of the people coming, Marshal Shen's heart was ecstatic, the people who came were not the people from the northern Xinjiang, but the reinforcements had arrived.

"Lord Wang, why are you here?" Yang Zhen was also very surprised when he saw Chu Ruojin and the others.

They originally came here to leave some people here to guard the grain and grass, and the other part of them directly climbed the slopes on both sides for reinforcements, but they didn't expect to meet Marshal Shen and others here.

"It's a long story, since you're here, come with us up the hill!"

"Are there just so many people here?"

"Back to the marshal, there are two teams of brothers behind who are far away and are rushing to this side."

As soon as the soldier finished speaking, a hidden arrow flew out of the bushes and knocked him to the ground.

People reacted quickly, this must be the people from Northern Xinjiang who have arrived, I didn't expect them to touch here, if the reinforcements of the soldiers are one step later, then Marshal Shen and they will be in a very dangerous situation.

Now the enemy is in the shadows, and they are in the light, and they can only passively resist the attacks of these people.

"Everyone hide near the carriage and be sure to pay attention to their own safety."

As soon as the enemy attacked, Chu Ruoyan pulled Li Luobing to his side to prevent her from being injured, and took her to the side of the carriage and sat down.

Now they can be said to be in a desperate situation, although there are soldiers on the hillside behind them, but when Marshal Shen left before, he had already ordered several people there not to leave, no matter what movement occurred in the rear, and they must keep a close eye on the enemy under the hillside.

And now in front of them is the people and horses from the north who came to sneak attack, and for the time being, they don't know how many people there are, and there is no way to take the initiative to attack, and now they only hope that the remaining two teams of soldiers can come sooner and form a front and back attack on these people in the north of Xinjiang.

Not only were they depressed, but the northern Xinjiang people hidden in the grass were also very depressed, and they had originally listened to the words of the leader and came to this forest to carry out a surprise attack.

Although they saw the carriage loaded with grain and grass from a distance, they did not expect that there were so many people around the carriage, which was beyond their expectations.

Just as they were hesitating to attack, an anxious soldier had already released an arrow.

"Idiot, aren't you exposing our position like this?" The man in the lead immediately punched the soldier who had released the arrow. The soldier also realized that his behavior was inappropriate, and just as he tried to speak, he was covered with his mouth.

"Now don't say a word, don't reveal your whereabouts, they don't know where we are for the time being."

The soldier nodded, and the people from the northern frontier looked up, these people from Chaoyang City were already alert, and they hid behind the carriage, even if they wanted to do it, they lost the best opportunity.

Although the people of the northern Xinjiang are in the shadows and can see the movement on the other side, there is no way to kill them all, if you want to do anything, you must lure them out.

After thinking about it, he picked up the bow and arrows in his hand and put a few arrows in a more remote direction, hoping to draw their attention to it, while he and the others sneaked up on the other side.

As a result, his wishful thinking failed, and after these arrows were released, not only did they not make the person on the other side move, but also revealed their own position.

"No matter, just rush up." They had lost their patience and rose from the grass and threw themselves at the grain.

Marshal Shen and the others didn't expect the people in the northern frontier to give up their advantages, and in the face of their attack, they could only face it head-on, and soon the men and horses of the two sides were fighting together.

Li Luobing hid behind the carriage, and from time to time feathered arrows flew over her head, almost injuring her several times, but she didn't have a trace of fear in her heart, but stared at the situation of the fight between the two sides without blinking, and her eyes kept following Chu Ruoyi's figure closely, for fear that he would be hurt a little.

Just as she was looking at the stalemate of the battle, out of the corner of her eye, she saw several people dressed in northern Xinjiang costumes secretly crawling towards the grain and grass in the grass, holding several unknown objects in their hands.

After they got a little closer, Li Luobing found that what they were holding in their hands was actually a fire fold, it seemed that they wanted to ignite these grains and grass, if they were lit here, then Marshal Shen and the soldiers who came from behind them would have no way to escape.

Now to tell Chu Ruoya the news, it's too late for them, and they have to stop all this on their own. After thinking of this, Li Luobing picked up the bow and arrow next to him and aimed it at the people in the grass.

As a result, due to his lack of strength, the first arrow only hit the shoulder of the northern Xinjiang man, and the second arrow only knocked him to the ground.

Li Luobing couldn't dodge, and a feather arrow flew past her cheek, leaving a scar on her face, and blood flowed down her face.

Li Luobing lifted the corner of his sleeve, wiped the blood on his face indiscriminately, and then turned his head to look at the two sides in the fight. Although the men and horses in Beijing were strong, the training of the soldiers this time still had results, and gradually Marshal Shen and others gained the upper hand.

Seeing that both the sneak attack and the attack failed, the remaining northern Xinjiang people immediately disappeared into the bushes.

"It's gone." Several soldiers ran to the grass in front of them to check and said to Marshal Shen.

Except for a few dead and wounded northerners on the ground, the others had disappeared without a trace.
