Section 85 The Road to Destruction of Qixingzhai
Eleven teams of people, each team of more than 20 people, mighty and mighty, treading the snow to find a trace.
The snow will stop, and the snow in the mountains and forests will be two feet thick. Every step you take requires a lot of physical strength. The people of Qixingzhai were miserable, and after walking about half of the mountain, five or six teams sent people to ask if they could go back to the cottage first, and then search for Shen Mu's whereabouts after the snow melted.
Wei Guo and the others also had the intention of retreating, seeing that everyone's opinions were almost unanimous, thinking that the safety of the cottage was the first, and Shen Mu would be arrested sooner or later. It is better to return to the stockade first to repair, so as not to fail in this march and be trapped by the heavy snow.
The decision was certain, and Wei Guo and the others returned along the road with their people.
After walking for more than ten miles, a seven-star village scouted the horse. The person who came saw Wei Guo and the others dismounted and said, "Fourth master, fifth master." The big boss has an order to ask the two masters to take people to Dingzhou Mansion as soon as possible. ”
Wei Qizhi said: "What happened to Dingzhou Mansion?"
The man said: "I heard that the second master was trapped, and the big boss asked the two masters to rescue the ...... as soon as possible."
Wei Qizhi scolded: "What's the situation? How could the second master be trapped?"
The man said: "The little one doesn't know much, I heard that the second master took people into the city, but he was trapped in the middle of the road......"
Guo Liang said: "Strange...... Could it be Shen Mu again......
Wei Qizhi said: "Then there is still time to guess, everyone listen to my orders, quickly retract, and turn to Dingzhou Mansion." ”
Liang Dong will be trapped in what he becomes, and even he can't think about it clearly. Obviously, the information he got was that Shen Mu had been leading people to attack and harass the fourth and fifth elders, and on the other side, Duan Chao himself sent out an invitation and was beating gongs and drums and setting off firecrackers in the outer city of Dingzhou Mansion to prepare to open a sect called "Yiqimen". There are also actions that show that Fuchao Yinzhuang is ready to take action against the Seven Star Merchants.
Liang Dongcheng immediately took ten good players to Dingzhou Mansion to stabilize the situation. When I arrived in Dingzhou City, I first understood the situation and knew that Fuchao Yinzhuang did not have the strength to merge with the Seven Star Commercial Bank, which was just a cover for Shen Mu to release.
As for the "righteous gas gate", Liang Dongcheng sent more than 10 people, and asked Qian Gongzi to find a group of hooligans, make noise, block the road, and block them from opening.
Duan Chao led people to fight with them, but the number of people on both sides was about the same, and there was a conflict in the downtown area, so he couldn't raise a knife and shout to kill in front of the blue sky and daylight.
After a few fights with his bare hands, Wulongshan's "righteous gas gate" couldn't be opened......
Liang Dongcheng made people always guard the "righteous gate", as long as they wanted to do things, they would go forward to make trouble, and they would not be given any chance.
Duan Chao is not in a hurry, I will fight you when you come, and I will continue to do what I have to do when you leave.
When the snow fell, the two sides finally quieted down.
The snow is so heavy, the goose feather snow falls quietly, Dingzhou Mansion is silent, and even the lively North Gate Street on weekdays is almost gone.
When the snow fell heavily until the evening of the next day, Liang Dongcheng couldn't sit still.
In his opinion, Shen Mu is a scheming person with clever means. This kind of weather is just right for him to carry out some small plots. In the past two days, the road has been closed due to heavy snowfall, and contact with the village has also been lost. The four spies sent out by Liang Dongcheng did not come back, and they didn't know what was going on.
Thinking that Shijiabao would be destroyed by Shen Mu in one day, Liang Dongcheng became more and more anxious.
By noon on the third day, no one had come to report it. Liang Dongcheng secretly said that it was not good, thinking that there were less than 100 people in the village, I was afraid that Shen Mu would really have the courage to go and rob the village.
Liang Dongcheng didn't dare to stay, and when he saw that the snow was smaller, he led people back to Liushan very quickly.
When he left Dingzhou Mansion, he specially instructed Qian Lang to just take people to keep an eye on Duan Chao, no matter what he wanted to do, just harass and obstruct him.
More than a dozen horses rushed along the road to Liushan Mountain.
The snow is thick and the walk is difficult. After walking for an hour, he only ran more than 20 miles. But fortunately, Liushan is close at hand, and it will be there if you endure it a little longer.
But what Liang Dongcheng didn't expect was that when he just stepped into the realm of the Willow Mountain, more than a dozen archers suddenly jumped out of the road in front of him, and they shot with their bows.
Liang Dongcheng saw that the way was blocked, and hurriedly retreated. There were also a few people jumping out on the mountain road behind them, and they were going to cut down two Qixingzhai brothers with knives.
Liang Dongcheng said secretly: It's not good, I'm afraid I fell into Shen Mu's ambush circle.
Seeing that the other party was overwhelmed, the people of Qixingzhai protected Liang Dongcheng in a panic and galloped.
Shen Mu turned out from behind the tree, saw Liang Dongcheng fleeing, and raised his voice: "Second Master Liang, don't come to harm?"
Liang Dongcheng glanced at Shen Mu and sneered, and said angrily in his heart: "Good Shen Mu, it turns out that you are here!"
Shen Mu said: "What the second master said is right, I've been waiting for you here for two days......
When Liang Dongcheng heard this, his heart was a little calm, it seemed that they still didn't dare to attack Liushan, but they were too suspicious in the end, so they fell into an ambush. The road to the road is blocked, and it is safest to retreat to Dingzhou Mansion as soon as possible.
Thinking of this, Liang Dongcheng greeted and led everyone to run back and forth.
Shen Mu was busy shooting arrows, and even two people who were guarding Liang Dongcheng's side were shot into hedgehogs.
Liang Dongcheng got this gap, and the people with him had escaped from the range of the bow and arrow.
After running for more than ten miles, ten more people suddenly jumped out in front of him, and it was indeed Lu Laosan who was waiting for Liang Dongcheng here with people.
Liang Dongcheng hurriedly turned to another place, seeing that there were fewer and fewer people around him, and only five followers remained. Liang Dongcheng secretly screamed miserably, afraid that this time there was more luck and less luck.
A sharp-eyed entourage suddenly shouted: "Big boss, there is an abandoned farm yard there, let's hide in it, or we can resist it for a while." ”
Liang Dongcheng answered, and led people to hide in the courtyard.
It was a small farm yard, the yard was not large, the room had collapsed more than half, and the earth was mixed with rubble to make the fence, because it had been uninhabited for a long time, and many weeds had grown. The grass is withered and yellow, buried in the snow. The door was also in tatters, but it was a good place to take refuge in an emergency.
Shen Mu asked people to surround the courtyard, and he smiled, a hundred steps away from the courtyard, and said loudly: "Second master, when I said goodbye to the drunken moon building that day, Shen has been looking forward to meeting again one day." I finally had the opportunity to meet today, what is the second master hiding?"
Liang Dongcheng said: "Rhetoric...... Lao Tzu believes that you are the hell!"
Shen Mu said: "Since the second master has nothing to say to Shen Mu, then I have no choice but to let the second master hold it." ”
Liang Dongcheng hurriedly said: "I don't understand for a while, why do you know so much about the terrain of Dingzhou Mansion, and how do you know that you are ambushed here." ”
These two questions were what he had wanted to ask for a long time, and he really couldn't understand why Shen Mu could always take the lead step by step.
Shen Mu said: "This is simple to say, know yourself and know your opponent, and you will not be defeated in a hundred battles." For the generals, when the time and place are right, otherwise they will be at a loss, and they will not be like headless flies!"
Liang Dongcheng said: "It seems that you have put a lot of effort into dealing with Qixingzhai. ”
Shen Mu said: "The soldiers and horses have not moved, and the grain and grass go first. If you don't do a good job of strategy, will it be like an egg to a stone against you with our men? Of course, this is also God helping us, if it weren't for the heavy snow for a few days, how could Second Master Liang be in such a hurry to get out of the city!"
Liang Dongcheng said: "So, the people I sent out were all stopped by you?"
Shen Mu said: "That's right, the brothers are worried that there is no meat to eat, but horse meat can be wrapped in belly, Shen thanks the second master for the gift of meat." As for the people, if Second Master Liang wants it, I can send someone to send it to you when I go back. ”
Liang Dongcheng said hatefully: "What a Shen Mu ......" He wanted to scold him with a vicious sentence, but he felt that he had lost his identity. At this point, I had to stop.
Shen Mu listened, laughed and said, "Thank you for the second master's compliment." Second master, please come out......"
Liang Dongcheng gritted his teeth and went out by himself? Wouldn't that be even more faceless, because the earth walls of this courtyard are thick, or it may be blocked for a while, as long as it stays until evening, sends people to break out of the encirclement, and goes to the Liushan Mountain to ask for help, there will be a glimmer of life.
Liang Dongcheng shouted loudly, and people aimed at Shen Mu to shoot arrows, and Shen Mu hurriedly retreated to dodge. Immediately, the two sides exchanged two rounds of bows and arrows, and Shen Mu made people try to attack, but they were repelled by Liang Dongcheng and others.
Shen Mu didn't really want to take down Liang Dongcheng, he asked Zong Ming to lead people to trap Liang Dongcheng, and he took people to other places.
When night fell, Liang Dongcheng and the others were hungry, and they didn't expect to cross the ambush, and they didn't carry dry food. With the glow of snow, the people of Wulong Mountain seemed to be resting. Liang Dongcheng chose two right-hand men, led the horses, and went around to the backyard, only to wait for them to raise their voices to attract Shen Mu's attention, and then get on the horse and rush to Liushan for help.
This is why Wei Guo and the others were rescued before.
However, it was said that Wei Guo and the others led two or three hundred people to rush to the aid of Liang Dongcheng and walked for a while, and Wei Qizhi was afraid that Shen Mu would attack and disturb Liushan, so he sent more than 60 people back to the mountain to defend.
Wei Guo and the others were afraid that Liang Dongcheng would not be able to hold on, so how could they dare to stop, and it took half a day to finally rush to more than 30 miles outside Dingzhou.
Liang Dongcheng and two messengers were waiting at the intersection, and when they saw the Qixingzhai brigade, they hurriedly led Wei Guo and the others to the rescue.
Out of the mountains and forests, the road is easier to walk. The group stepped on the snow without a trace, and with the two people who reported the news, they rushed to the broken yard where Liang Dongcheng was surrounded.
Just in the middle of the rush, it was suddenly reported that there were people from Wulong Mountain in the rear team, Wei Qizhi said: "It's just to delay our rush to help the second master, don't worry about them." It's coming, it's blocked. ”
The two of them were concerned about Liang Dongcheng's safety, Guo Liang was in front, and Wei Qizhi was behind, urging everyone to hurry.
Suddenly, there was a sound, like a landslide cracking, and the snow on the road instantly collapsed into a huge trench.
The front team of people fell into it, and a dozen or so horses galloped too fast, and the snow was too slippery, even if they saw it, they couldn't contain the horses' hooves.
For a time, people turned on their backs, and people and horses fell into the trenches, trampling on each other, wailing to the sky, and it was unbearable to see.
Guo Liang led the team in front, bearing the brunt of the attack, and his heart was trampled by two horses, and he was still dead before he screamed.
Wei Qizhi fell at the back of the team, and when he heard the loud noise, he desperately pulled the horse, and the horse drew a long mark in the deep snow, and finally stopped at the edge of the pit.
Before he could rescue the brothers in the pit, he heard a shout of killing behind him. On the left, Lu Laosan led ten people, and on the right, Ma Linzi rushed over with several people.
Although there were not many of them, Qixingzhai Hu was ambushed, and they were flustered, and they had all heard the legend of Shen Mu, so they were killed and fled.
After all, he is not a regular sergeant, and he is too far behind in terms of combat strength and discipline......
(I'm sorry for being late today.) )
