Chapter 60: Turn
Qu country border.
The snow had stopped, and it was so cold that the soldiers had to run around the tent.
The border sentry yawned coldly, and suddenly saw a large dark cloud on the horizon, flowing towards this side.
This seems to be moving a little fast. The more I feel that something is wrong.
The sentry rubbed his eyes and fixed his eyes to see what dark clouds were, and it was clearly a large group of people living in contact with the sky.
Suddenly the drowsiness was gone, and the sentries hurriedly rang the bell, and the bell rang back, and the border tent that heard the bell also rang, and then to the city walls, until the whole city rang.
The general of Qu Guo looked at the soldiers and horses advancing in an orderly manner in the distance with a solemn expression, and made people quickly enter the palace to report to the princess that there was a surprise attack.
The golden iron horse in front of him kept approaching, the horns suddenly went out, and the war drums were beaten.
Qu sent hundreds of soldiers to surround the border, trying to stop the other side from advancing.
General Song raised his hand to signal everyone to stop moving forward first, staring at the front with a grim face, and the sound of war drums stopped.
"Who's coming?" The soldiers of Qu asked in unison.
"The contemptible man is the victory of the Song Dynasty of the State of Yin." General Song replied proudly.
At this time, the soldiers of Qu Guo gave way to a way, and General Qu Guo Li rode out on a war horse, and when he saw General Song, he smiled and said: "It turned out to be an old acquaintance, don't come to harm?" ”
In the independence war of Qu State, the two cooperated to destroy the country, but they had a grudge because of the brother of General Song.
"I'm naturally fine, you can't say anything." General Song chuckled.
General Li calmly said: "Don't be so angry, it's easy to get impotence, but it's okay, I have a wonderful recipe to give to you, it's called 'curing obstacles'." ”
"What do you mean?" General Song frowned, feeling that it was not a good word.
"That means you're a bad guy!" General Lee laughed contemptuously, and the soldiers beside him burst into laughter.
The corners of General Song's mouth twitched slightly, and he shouted: "Okay, you are here to treat me!" ”
"If you tell me to cure me, I'll cure me? This is an additional price. General Li leaned forward slightly and smiled disdainfully.
General Song clenched the spear in his hand and said, "Laugh, laugh, soon you won't be able to laugh." ”
"What? Just because you want me to cry too? You, no! General Lee shook his index finger at him and chuckled.
The soldiers beside General Li maliciously echoed: "Haha, he can't do it, he can't do it!" ”
Hearing someone say that he couldn't do it, General Song's violent temper couldn't hold back: "Today, Lao Tzu, I must let you know what the world is sinister!" ”
"Come on!" General Li said, turned around and led the soldiers back.
General Song turned around, raised his hand and ordered: "Kill!" ”
The 3,000 troops of the State of Yin listened to the order and pursued General Li with General Song, shouting: "Kill! ”
General Li and the soldiers returned to the city a moment before the city gate was closed.
The archers on the city wall saw that the soldiers of the Yingguo Kingdom had entered the range of fire, and fired ten thousand arrows at the same time under an order.
General Song hurriedly carried the soldiers to dodge the arrows, wanting to retreat, but the soldiers on the border of Qu outflanked him, and General Li on the city wall was suddenly triumphant.
The military flag of the Qu State Sentry Tower was raised, and he immediately outflanked the right flank of General Song.
Captain Qu Guo led 2,000 men, and when he saw the military flag raised, he outflanked the left flank of General Song.
The military marquis of Qu led 5,000 people, saw the military flag up, and tore the hole in the middle.
In this case, if it goes well, the opponent's formation will be divided.
Just when General Li felt that he was bound to win, he was surrounded by thousands of troops of the State of Yin behind the lieutenant.
General Song grinned: "I'm scared to death, I thought you wouldn't be fooled!" ”
General Li frowned, looking at the formation that was suddenly disrupted, and was just about to give a new order, a tall figure walked up to him and looked down with interest.
"Taibao-sama, why are you here?" General Li frowned slightly.
"Naturally, I was ordered by the princess to come to assist General Li in defeating the army." Bo Qing said.
General Li looked at the layman and said nothing.
Although the first king Quyue gave him the power to arrange for war and food, it did not mean that the military power was handed over to him.
At that time, Qu Yue just asked him to help himself, and it was General Li who really led the troops.
A chuckle tugged at the corner of Bo Qing's mouth: "The way you children play is really interesting." ”
Hearing his evaluation, General Li stretched his face unhappily and said, "Oh? So what is the opinion of the Taibao? ”
Bo Qing glanced at him and said to the attendant behind him, "Drop that ignition down." ”
"Yes, sir." The attendant had to be ordered to immediately carry out the things that he had been told.
I saw more than a dozen attendants lighting a bag of cloth and throwing it under the city wall.
The tossed cloth bag suddenly emitted billowing white smoke, and the stench spread rapidly.
The soldiers under the city walls suddenly coughed violently, followed by foaming at the mouth.
This was a special poison made by Bo Qing in order to torture Chi Na, but in the end, he thought of the wonderful method of "dripping water through stones", so he put it on hold.
As soon as he heard that Yin Guojun had finally made a move, he took the initiative to ask Qu Ning for help, wanting to take this opportunity to see how powerful his special poison was.
If it's summer, the effect should be even better, and it's a pity that Bo Qing makes a sigh.
Seeing this, General Song covered his mouth and nose and hurriedly shouted: "Poisonous smoke, retreat!" ”
The soldiers of the State of Yin, obeying the command of General Song, fought and retreated to the rear.
General Li didn't expect Bo Qing's assistance, but he actually released poisonous smoke without distinguishing between the enemy and me, and said angrily: "Lord Taibao, you are killing a thousand enemies and losing eight hundred, I don't need your help, please go back!" ”
Bo Qing chuckled: "How can this work?" The princess's order is not to be disobeyed. ”
"If the princess is to blame, Ben will bear it alone, please ...... Yes! ”
Before General Li could finish speaking, the affectionate attendant stabbed the white knife into General Li's back, and the red knife was pulled out.
The soldiers around him watched General Li fall and looked at him in shock.
He nodded approvingly to the attendant, and then said loudly: "General Li unfortunately died on the battlefield, and Lord Ben reluctantly led the troops to conquer the Yingguo army. ”
All the soldiers were slightly stunned at first, and then they knelt down on one knee one after another, and said in unison: "I am willing to obey the command of Lord Taibao." ”
The corners of Bo Qing's mouth hooked a sly arc, looking at the dead and wounded under the city wall: "I can't bear the child can't trap the wolf, and only if you give up can you get it." ”
He knew that no one in the court of Qu Guo was convinced of him, but it didn't matter, Qu Guo was just a tool used by Bo Qing to stumble on the sinking boat.
Inside the Yingguo tent.
After listening to General Song's description, Shen Zhou put down the chess pieces in his hand and looked at the sky outside the camp with an expressionless face.
After a long time, he whispered, "It's raining tonight." ”
"Rain?" General Song was puzzled, what did it have to do with the rain.
"Pass the order, prepare a handkerchief for each person, and lead an army of 50,000 to attack it tonight." Shen Zhou ordered softly.
General Song looked puzzled, could it be that a handkerchief could isolate poisonous smoke and gas?
"I didn't return in vain during the day, and if I came back tonight, would the soldiers be unbearable?" General Song asked hesitantly.
Shen Zhou looked back and said: "Time is not waiting, and the opportunity must not be lost." ”
Although General Song had doubts, he did not dare to question them openly, so he gave the order with a suspicious face.
Until the middle of the night approached tonight, the sky was indeed drizzling.
General Song suspiciously asked everyone to tie the handkerchief to the mouth and nose, and the handkerchief was unbearable because it absorbed the rain on the way.
Some soldiers secretly removed their handkerchiefs, while General Song still carried out Shen Zhou's orders.
He first led an army of 10,000 to take the lead, probing the truth and reality, and if the situation was not right, the 40,000 army ambushed in the distance could immediately retreat.
In the middle of the night, Qu Guo had the upper hand because of the daytime confrontation, so that he was a little lax, and threw poison bags directly before a single soldier came out.
General Song, who was holding a wet handkerchief in his nostrils, saw that only a few people who took off the handkerchief were poisoned and fell to the ground, and immediately understood the meaning of Shen Zhou.
"Siege the gates!" General Song drew his sword and ordered.
The soldiers on the city wall of Qu Kingdom saw that the poisonous smoke did not have a big effect on them, so they immediately mobilized archers to shoot arrows at them.
At this time, the military flag of the Qu State and the war drums were raised at the same time, and on both sides of the city wall, the captain and the marquis each led 5,000 troops to surround them.
The 40,000 troops who were in ambush behind them sent another 20,000 soldiers to support them according to the strategy previously arranged.
General Song led a total of 50,000 troops, 10,000 troops took the lead, and were outflanked by the soldiers of the Qu State, and another 20,000 soldiers of the Yin State would come forward to support.
The last 20,000 men stood still, just to see the right time to flank and copy the back road, and then concentrate their forces and break them one by one.
In terms of the number of soldiers, it is naturally difficult to compare the Qu State with the current Yin State, and soon the Song General attacked the city walls.
When the news reached the palace, the palace people were immediately confused, but Bo Qing issued a false order on behalf of Qu Ning to close all the entrances and exits of the palace.
He watched the people of Qu Kingdom fall into panic, and couldn't help laughing, the fragile and dull human race was like ants on a hot pot at this time in the eyes of Bo Qing.
But when Bo Qing saw Qu Ning looking for him in a panic, he couldn't help but smile and fell into deep thought.
When he came back to his senses, he realized that Shen Zhou had already entered the city, and it was time for him to leave......
