Chapter 22 Thousands of troops should avoid white robes

It took seven days for the water to recover.

If the soul is damaged, the best way is to sleep. For most of these seven days, Shui was bedridden for most of the month. Wu Gen takes care of and takes care of him every day, not to mention holding his hair and spitting like the ancients, but it also takes a lot of thought.

On this day, looking at the good weather, the spring is slightly smoky, and the two people who have nothing to do sit in the courtyard to drink tea.

Shui Congyue took a sip of tea, picked up a residual leaf on the lid of the cup, and sighed: "I never thought that the ghost snake would be so dangerous, and it would damage the soul very much, since I was a child, I have never been so seriously injured." In this way, Wu Gan, you are also a little talented, and you have lived here for so many days. ”

It is rare to be praised by Shui Congyue, Wu Jian straightened his waist, "You don't know anything from Congyue, this is all for a reason." The two got along for a long time, and their titles changed.

"Oh, why."

"Do you know that my milk name is a stone pendant, and the stone is stinky and hard, and it can't be damaged by idle ghosts."

"And that kind of statement?"

"Then you are lonely, when you were in the stockade, there was a fortune teller who once said that people's lives are affected by their names. Rural people give young children milk names, all of which are ugly, such as dogs and stinky children, so that they can be fed. ”

"Ridiculous, weird."

"Eh, I'll have to talk about it." Wu Yan rolled up his sleeves, ready to instill the truth of the life of the ugly man. From the other side of the mountain, in the direction of the Great Xia Kingdom, there was the sound of rumbling horses' hooves, and listening to this movement, there were dozens of horses.

Wu Gan's face changed, and he flew towards Fengsui. Arazuka Ridge is located in a remote area, easy to defend and difficult to attack, and very few soldiers and horses come here.

Hurriedly boarded the beacon, raised his eyes and looked down, the smoke and dust were billowing under the mountain, and more than 40 riders were cruising around the pass. Look at the bright heart guard, who are the soldiers and horses of the Great Xia Kingdom.

Looking at the brazier with wolf dung not far away beside him, Wu Yan muttered in his heart. Although the terrain of this barren mound ridge is dangerous, it is not a heavy place for soldiers, otherwise no one will care about it if it is unguarded for a long time.

Without him, it's because it's too steep. Coming from the Great Xia Kingdom, there is only one winding and narrow mountain road to pass, and only one horse can pass through the narrowest point.

Think about how long it would take for thousands of horses to pass through the gates one by one. Moreover, Zhao Guo also set up a beacon at the pass, and the so-called one-man pass, ten thousand people do not open is to describe here.

If the army of the Great Xia Kingdom attacked the Zhao State, there were still three or four major roads to attack, and there would be no surprise troops on this path. Therefore, Aratsuka Ridge is only used as a beacon tower and observing the enemy's situation on weekdays, and is not guarded by heavy troops.

It's just that today, why is the Great Xia Kingdom eyeing this place, is it difficult to use troops in an all-round way, and there is a strange army here.

Soon, dozens of cavalrymen, led by an officer, reached a place a hundred zhang away from the pass, which was the longest distance for crossbow shooting, and it seemed that the officer in the lead was a veteran.

Shui Congyue also followed at this time, holding a halberd and looking at the soldiers and horses parked outside the pass, "Wu Gan, do you want to go out to fight." ”

"No, no, no." Wu Gan's head shook like a rattle, "This place is dangerous, and the cavalry can't attack it directly, so they can only attack one by one." If the two of us abandon the pass, we will fall into each other's arms. ”

"It's okay, there are only dozens of people, I'll pick it." The water from the moon does not care.

Feeling the fighting intent of the water rushing from the moon to the sky, Wu Yan hurriedly dissuaded, "You don't have to risk yourself, I'll just wait and see." It's just that these people are far away, otherwise it would be so arrogant to shoot him a few arrows. Stretched out his hand and pointed downward, quite unwillingly.

Shui Congyue narrowed his eyes, stretched out his thumb to estimate the distance of the soldiers and horses of the Great Xia Kingdom, looked at the bows and crossbows that had already been placed in the beacon one by one, shook his head and said, "The bow is weak, how can you control the enemy." Wait for me to take the carved bow. ”

Turning around and descending from the beacon, a moment later came up with a black longbow. I don't know what kind of material the bow is, the whole body is dark, and there are two fierce tigers carved on it. The bowstring is the thickness of a child's arm, and I really don't know how Shui Congyue can pull such a strong bow.

Standing at the edge of the battlement, Shui Congyue casually took a long arrow from the ballista. The arrow rests on the string, the left leg is bowed forward, and the right hand holds the bowstring and slowly pulls it apart.

Squeak, the water pursed her lips tightly from the moon, the bow in her hand was like a full moon, and the brilliance flowed in the sun, and with a "boom", the arrow flew out.

The strong wind swept through the beacons, and the wind rushed straight into the dust, like a bolt of lightning splitting the air, shooting towards the cavalry of the Great Xia Kingdom, who were still pointing.

In the blink of an eye, one of the cavalrymen was shot through the chest, the arrow was unabated, and the second cavalryman was killed, and the third man was nailed to the ground with his horse and man.

Everything happened so suddenly, Wu Yan looked at the people of the Great Xia Kingdom who were scattered and fled in the distance in a little daze.

If he has some knowledge, he will sigh what "the crossbow hair is like the blue wave swallowing the sun, and the arrow flies beyond the electric switch" and the like, at this moment, there are only three words in his heart without culture, Doom God.

Shui Congyue looked calm, as if he had just taken a sip of wine, and turned to fetch the second long arrow.

After a brief period of panic, the cavalry of the Great Xia Kingdom, under the command of that officer, quickly resumed their formation and separated themselves from each other, so as not to be killed by the other party in one blow.

It can also be seen from here that the tactical literacy of the soldiers of the Great Xia State is indeed higher than that of the Zhao State.

At the sound of an order, these cavalry did not retreat, but advanced, and scattered and rushed towards the pass. When they approached the junction in front of the pass, the road narrowed, and some men simply dismounted, shielded, and tried to climb up the beacon from the steep slopes on either side, while the rest released arrows to cover it, and the arrows rained down towards the beacon.

Facts have proved that the choice of the people of Great Xia was right. The place of ten to one hundred zhang in front of the beacon is the most dangerous, and when it comes closer, it is blocked by the mountain, and the people on the beacon cannot shoot the opponent because of the dead angle.

Seeing this scene, Shui Congyue put down the arrow in his hand and picked up the halberd with one hand, "Open the door, I'll go out to meet the enemy, and you use the arrow to kill the stragglers on both sides." If you let it all fall apart, it will be difficult to clean up. ”

"There are many people on the other side, deal with it carefully, and don't go too far from the pass." Wu Yan thought about it, he only had two people, if the other party was attached from the bottom of the mountain, and there were still dead ends in archery from a high place, it was really difficult to deal with.

With a word of agreement, the water turned over from the beacon under the moon, rushed out of the small door under the beacon with a halberd, and went straight to the enemy soldiers in front of the pass.

Wu Gen stood on the beacon, the arrows swishing above his head. Hiding behind the battlements, he watched the movement of the opponent and tried to stop the small group of skirmishers who were climbing the mountain with arrows.

At this time, an unforgettable scene appeared for Wu Gan. On the mountain road under the beacon, a white horse rushed out of the pass like the wind, and the man in white on the horse waved his halberd, the momentum was like a rainbow, and he was brave like a mantle, like a silver sword inserted into the enemy formation.

The arrows flew and were blocked by the halberds, and the white horses roared, and the momentum was not under the master.

Seeing the ferocity of the opposing officer, the officer on the opposite side waved his hand, and three cavalrymen met him. As soon as the two sides looked at each other, they saw people turning over on their backs, and with a wave of their hands, the three cavalrymen had fallen under their horses.

"Whoever is coming, report it." The officer of the Great Xia Kingdom asked loudly while dispatching his subordinates.

It's okay not to shout, but as soon as the words came out, the white horse turned his head and rushed towards him.

"Stop him." The officer yelled with all his might. When the rest of the people saw this, some took out two tripwires with stones tied to them, some hurriedly threw out thistles, and some took bows and arrows.

They are all people who are used to fighting on the battlefield, and naturally know how to deal with cavalry, and they carry a lot of restraint with them.

The water clamped the war horse from the crotch of the moon, and the horse neighed, snorted, and suddenly accelerated. The halberd in his hand slammed hard into the ground, and with the power of the rebound, the centaur rose in the air, avoiding the opponent's various means in an instant.

The halberd was drawn out of the momentum, drew a large circle, and smashed it towards the officer. It's really a smash here, not a thorn, not a pick, not a cut, and the huge halberd flutters like a plaything in his hands.

The officer of the Great Xia Kingdom was about to urge the horse forward, when a flower appeared in front of him, and a cold light fell from the sky. In a panic, he hurriedly raised his long knife to block.

With a loud bang, the hilt of the iron in the officer's hand was bent into a crescent. The war horse under him screamed, spread its legs, and lay on the ground, but it was shocked to death by the force of this blow.

As for the officer on the horse, his arms fell limply, his eyes protruded outward, and his seven orifices were bleeding, and he fell limply on the horse's corpse.

The power of the blow was so terrifying that the people around were dumbfounded, and they watched as the white-robed man leaped past the officer, mowing the grass and slaughtering the rest of the soldiers.

"I can't stop it, run." I don't know who shouted, and the people present no longer had the heart to fight again, and they scattered and fled.

The water from the moon is like a wolf into a flock of sheep, or splitting or shooting, and the team of dozens of people is scattered by it in the blink of an eye.

Wu Gan's blood in the beacon is open, is this a person, a god or a demon, a god sent by God to whip the world.

The people who were still climbing on the mountains on both sides were dumbfounded, neither up nor down, and they abandoned their weapons and descended.

After a short battle, more than a dozen corpses were left in the field, and eight people were captured.

The results were so fruitful, Wu Gan's heart couldn't help but bloom. Looking up at Shui Congyue, who was sitting in Fengsui drinking alone, as if nothing had happened, he sighed in his heart, the world often says that there are hundreds of enemies, thousands of enemies, and he is only exaggerating.

Today, I know that there is really such a kind of person in the world, the wind and the tiger and the cloud dragon, swallowing thousands of miles, roaring in the breeze, and killing the wolf smoke in laughter.

Carefully interrogate the bound captives as to why they are attacking the Arazuka Mountains today. It turned out that the border army of the Great Xia Kingdom had received a report that a large number of military supplies had been stationed on this barren mound ridge, and the garrison was weak, and only a weak young man was stationed there.

Thinking that he could grab a sum of money, why not do this kind of risky business, so he sent dozens of people to investigate.

When I came, I really felt that I was here to carry things, and even the carriage was brought over. And the Great Xia Kingdom didn't think about sending troops to garrison here, after all, this place is far away from Great Xia, it is a chicken rib land, it is difficult to garrison a large number of troops, it is not easy to supply, and it is really meaningless to occupy it.

Wu Gen's nose was crooked, this is a meticulous work that is out of tune, conveying this kind of false military information. I bask in the sun in the barren mound ridge, sell and sell smuggled salt, and the days are so moist. Fighting, killing, and killing, looking for the big camp of the Xiang Army, why do you bully me as a small army commander.

The wolf smoke on the beacon was lit, and the pillars of smoke rose one after another, which was very conspicuous in the wilderness. The signal has been issued, and Wu Jian is quietly waiting for the arrival of the camp of the Xiang army.

Soon, in less than a day, a hundred horsemen rumbled, and it was Zhang Yuan who led the team. There were no more people stationed in the small courtyard, so they had to dismount and rest at the bottom of the mountain.

Looking at the prisoners squatting on the ground, as well as the row of corpses, Zhang Yuan was shocked, but he didn't expect that the barren mound ridge, which had never had a war, suddenly fought, and he won, and it was the gangster Wu Gan who won the battle.

Disbelieving, Zhang Yuan personally went to the side of the Great Xia Kingdom outside the gate and carefully inspected it on the ground. There were still many arrows scattered on the bloodstained ground, the corpses of horses, and the stumps of people.

After watching the battlefield, Zhang Yuan, accompanied by Wu Gan, went to the small courtyard under the beacon to rest, after all, he had marched all the way to this point, and the people were sleepy and tired. Along the way, I saw trenches, hidden forts, and traps appearing one after another, which was shocking.

When I walked to the gate of the courtyard, I looked back at the large and small institutions along the way, and sighed, "I never thought that this small barren mound ridge was operated by you like an iron bucket." Three or five people are staying here, and it is not a problem to refuse a few hundred people. Okay, well, after I go back, I will definitely ask Qu Chang for credit. ”

In a state of agitation, his right hand slapped heavily on the stone lion beside him.

"Don't." Wu Gen was originally full of pride, his eyebrows were smiling, and he glanced at Zhang Yuan's movements from the corner of his eyes, and his soul couldn't help but scatter, and he eagerly stopped it.

Zhang Yuan was stunned, not knowing what Wu Gen meant.

Suddenly, he felt a strong wind behind him, and when he turned his head, he saw that a huge tree had flown in front of him and hit his back. Zhang Yuan was knocked out and flew out, and his body slammed into the ground. Just as he was about to stand up, the ground suddenly cracked, and a large black crater appeared in front of him.

Wu Yan covered his eyes, unable to bear to look directly at the next situation.

Zhang Yuan's voice came out of the pit, sounding a little distorted, "Wu Gan, Lao Tzu beheaded you." ”
