This is a valley, the width of the valley mouth is about 100 meters, and the inside is probably in the shape of an open-bottomed gourd.

It is more suitable for ambushes, and the only drawback is that the mountain is not steep enough.

The slope is gentle, and the opening is too large.

However, ten miles away, you can only find such a place that meets the requirements.

Cao Bin had no choice but to take advantage of it.

At this time, Shi Qian was squatting on the mountain wall and looking into the distance, and when he saw Cao Bin and his party arriving, he hurriedly jumped down and knelt down on one knee and said:

"Uncle, according to your orders, everything is ready."

Cao Bin nodded and asked, "Have you notified Yang Zongbao?" ”

Shi Qian nodded and said, "Uncle, don't worry, my subordinates have sent a messenger three days ago. ”

"Let's go, into the valley!"

Shi Qian hurriedly led the way in front.

Entering the valley, seeing hundreds of men dressed in short clothes ambushing on both sides of the valley, Di Qing looked around and asked with some concern:

"Uncle, Yuan Hao has brought at least a few thousand people, our strength is a little thin."

At this time, in addition to the two hundred Imperial Dragon Straight Soldiers, there were less than a thousand non-moving warriors.

The people who didn't move were good and bad, and they couldn't exert much combat power.

And these people who are ambushing are all short cloth clothes, no matter how you look at them, they are all people in the rivers and lakes.

With just these people, how could they stop Yuan Hao's elite troops?

I am afraid that if I am charged by the cavalry, I will immediately disperse.

When Zhang Dian heard this, he also took the opportunity to persuade:

"Uncle, since an ambush has been set up here, it is enough to resist Yuan Hao for a while."

"I don't think you'd better take the risk yourself."

Cao Bin laughed:

"Zihou, Hanchen, don't worry, Benjue cherishes his life the most, and he won't take risks easily."

"I once wrote to the imperial court, saying that Yuanhao will die."

"If you don't send his soul back to the Western Heaven before leaving Western Xia, wouldn't it be very shameless?"

He glanced at the valleys on either side and said:

"It's a pity that the imperial court doesn't want to start a war lightly, and Cao can only settle for it."

As he spoke, he squinted and said:

"The so-called revenge is not a gentleman, Yuan Hao's guy shouted and shouted to Benjue as soon as they met, if he didn't teach him a lesson, he thought Benjue was easy to bully."

Di Qing was a little speechless, it turns out that you want to take revenge.

Zhang Dan has a tough personality and has always been known for his ruthlessness, and when he heard this, he no longer hesitated:

"In this case, Zhang and Uncle advance and retreat together."

"The princes of the court are too cowardly, and they are always afraid of the enemy like a tiger, which makes people's teeth cold."

"For these barbarians, they should be a tooth for a tooth, an eye for an eye."

Cao Bin led people to the hillside in front of the valley, looked at a mountain road in the middle of the hillside, and smiled left and right:

"Let's just watch the battle here, if something goes wrong, we might as well run away, right?

Zhang Dian laughed, gave a thumbs up and said, "Uncle is thoughtful, I admire!" ”

Seeing that Cao Bin was not untargeted, Zhang Dian suddenly relieved himself.

If they run away directly, they may not be able to outrun Yuan Hao's pursuers, so it is better to strike reflexively.

At this time, even he didn't expect Cao Bin's plan, and Yuan Hao would definitely be caught off guard.

Seeing that Cao Bin had already made a decision, Di Qing hurriedly commanded his subordinates to replenish the rejection horse in the middle of the gourd valley and trap the pit.

At this moment, the mountain ran into the valley with his people in embarrassment.

After seeing Cao Bin, he said with resentment on his face: "Uncle Cao, since you have already set up an ambush, why do you want my people to go to death?" ”

Cao Bin rolled his eyes, ignored him, and just looked out of the valley.

On the contrary, Zhang Duan said with a serious face:

"The patriarch has not moved, since you want to take refuge in my Great Song Dynasty, you have to listen to my command."

"No matter what orders your uncle gives, you have to obey ......"

In fact, the attitude of the Great Song Dynasty was somewhat contradictory, although they could not defeat the Khitan and Western Xia, but they were always psychologically full of superiority.

It is believed that Liaoxia is a barbarian country, and the Great Song Dynasty has never said anything about it, and there is part of the reason for this.

As a literati, Zhang Dian was no exception.

In his opinion, he was just a barbarian chieftain, and since he had defected to the Great Song Dynasty, he had no right to complain in front of him.

Hearing this, he was a little indignant, and was about to say something, but he heard the thunder roaring.

Zhang Dan's face turned pale and said: "It's coming!" ”

I saw countless war horses pouring into the canyon, like a tidal wave.

"Slippery ......"

Hundreds of horses fell to the ground, screaming in unison.

At this time, the Western Xia people looked at the ground carefully, and saw that the canyon was densely packed with pits with a diameter of three inches and a depth of half a foot.

Under the cover of weeds, looming.

This kind of trap can only be caught in the horse's hooves, but as long as the war horse falls into it, it is the result of the horse's leg being broken.

"Appeal ......."

"Not good! There is an ambush, retreat! ”

At this moment, countless crossbow arrows were shot from both sides of the valley, like a violent storm, and there were only a few hundred ambush soldiers, but they shot thousands of people.

Seeing the Western Xia cavalry coming over, Ben was still a little frightened, and he was completely stunned at this time.

"This ......"

Zhang Dian had already understood, and exclaimed: "What a powerful repeater!" ”

The crossbows and bows equipped in the Great Song Dynasty army are varied, including divine arm crossbows, stepping crossbows, and bed crossbows with great power.

But a "repeater" of this quality is unseen.

At this time, the Tangut people were already in chaos and were scurrying around in the valley.

Thanks to the wide enough valley mouth, the Western Xia soldiers were allowed to withdraw, otherwise Yuan Hao would have to be injured with this blow.

When he returned to the valley, Yuan Hao's face suddenly darkened.

In just one wave, more than 2,000 people were directly injured or wounded, including seven or eight hundred iron harriers.

These iron harriers are usually offered as treasures.

Even if he participated in a war of tens of thousands of people, he never lost so many people at once.

Now that he has not seen the enemy, he has been overshadowed, and he has directly lost one-fifth.

Those soldiers were physically strong, but they were also bruised and swollen in their noses and faces, broken bones and tendons, and fell from their horses suddenly.

He didn't expect that Cao Bin would dare to turn around and strike back in the process of escaping.

Yuan Hao had a gloomy face and looked into the valley, only to see that it was already dusty and full of people, and he couldn't see the actual situation clearly.

A general next to him wiped the sweat covered with dust and said:

"Lord of the country, judging from the arrows just now, there are thousands of people in ambush in the mountains, could it be that the Song Kingdom sent people to respond?"

"It's better to forget it, it's just a mission."

Yuan Hao turned his head abruptly and looked at him fiercely, his eyes full of killing intent.

The general's eyes dodged, and he didn't dare to persuade again.

How did he know Yuan Hao's mood at this time, Zhang Yuan died after taking the "elixir", proving that this was a scam.

If he wasn't too eager, he wouldn't have easily stepped into Cao Bin's ambush.

Yuan Hao waved his hand and said, "Go to the camp and go to explore the way." ”

Suddenly three hundred light horsemen ran from his side, and with a little force on their horses, they immediately flew up and climbed quickly up the rocks from the flanks of the valley.

After hearing the return, he said nervously:

"This is Xixia Shan's camp, they are all masters recruited by Yuan Hao with a lot of money, all of them are extraordinary in martial arts, and they rarely make a move on weekdays, and they only guard by Yuan Hao's side."

"These people climb mountains and cross waters, such as walking on flat ground, and are very good at hand-to-hand combat, can Uncle have a way to deal with it?"

Di Qing said: "It's better to lead people to kill for a while, although they are strong in martial arts, we also have the skill of joint attack." ”

Cao Bin waved his hand and said, "It doesn't need to be like this. You look at it and it'......"
