Chapter Ninety-Eight: Fierce Battle
When the tribes cried and told Gao Tangsheng that the Bao soldiers robbed them of their capture, also? They slapped them and even stripped them of their clothes.
Gao Tangsheng was so violent that he immediately led the rest of the troops to chase after Bao Tao, vowing to ask for an explanation. The two of them are in the same county, not to mention helping each other, but they can't be like this.
When Gao Tangsheng caught up with Bao Tao, his subordinates had copper coins strung around their necks, and cloth and silk under their shoulders, and they were proud all the way, singing mountain songs:
"Binh Duong Bao, Wei! Pingyang High Hall, bad! ”
Gao Tang was so angry that his face was bruised, he found Bao Tao in the team and scolded angrily:
"Why do you care about the army plundering my children?"
Bao Tao smiled:
"Gao Tangjun, what you said is wrong. These seizures are my part, so how can we talk about looting? ”
Gao Tangsheng was so angry that his nose was crooked, and he scolded:
"Your Bao clan is also a decent and wealthy family, how can you be so obscene and shameless for these things."
When Bao Tao heard that Gao Tangsheng began to accuse his family, his face sank:
"Gao Tangsheng, you are also a scholar. Don't you know if you are a thief if you don't tell you? You Gao Tang family is a white family, don't pollute your family's reputation. ”
Seeing that Bao Tao was the villain sue first, Gao Tang was so angry that there were no three corpses, he pulled out his knife and cut off the hem of his clothes, meaning that the two families were cut off.
Then Gao Tangsheng led his troops back, and he was no longer willing to join forces with the Bao family.
Looking at Gao Tangsheng's anxious return, a clan brother asked Bao Tao if he wanted to persuade him to come back and divide the capture with them, otherwise, the forward force would be thin.
Bao Tao was arrogant: "Gao Tang will go by himself, I should take it alone." ”
Then he added hatefully:
"There are a lot of thieves, and the retreat of the Gao Tang clan happens to be captured by a small number of people."
When the clansmen saw the appearance of the thieves surrendering in the past, they also felt that they could also destroy the thieves by relying on the soldiers of the Bao family.
After that, Bao Tao continued to lead troops and went straight to the Taishan thief camp.
As soon as Bao Tao came, he asked the guards to wear armor for him, put on two layers of armor, and carried a step, and his wind was like fire and began to attack the wall.
The wall that Bao Tao attacked, the defender was Guo Liang. Guo Liang was originally a general under Heifu, and was promoted to the commander of the tun after repeated military exploits. He would take a hundred spearmen with him to guard the western wall.
In the camp behind him was a battalion of Shooting Shengtun, and the leader was his friend Zhao Jian. They were the same group that were released from outside the Zhang Chong rampage. This will Zhao Jianzheng lead his battalion of 100 shooters, drawing bows and waiting to shoot.
Thanks to the large number of Orion Mountains in Mount Tai, Zhang Chong organized and trained five battalions of archers at once, and Zhao Jian's department was one of them.
But Guo Liang refused Zhao Jian's support, he looked at the Bao soldiers who did not have any offensive equipment outside the wall, and sneered, even such soldiers also want to trap him?
Here, Dong Wan took the Wang soldiers, and Zhao Pet and the Zhang soldiers also rushed to a slope in the west.
When they looked down, they saw a large battalion lying across the plain below the slope, and a large army with the word "Bao" was attacking the west side of the camp.
Dong Wan squinted, and Zhao Pet smiled when he saw the place where this big stone was rooted. Dong Wan was curious and asked why, Zhao Pet smiled and said:
"This Taishan thief thinks he knows the soldiers, and the camp is strong, but a certain family knows that it is indiscriminate at a glance. Look at the location of this camp, it is actually camped on a plain, and you and I are on this high slope, and we can see this reality at a glance.
If you look at the trench dug outside the trench, it seems to be useful, but in fact, there are no wooden piles to reject horses, and the material yard is still arranged outside the trench. This really makes it choke for me. ”
Hearing Zhao Pet's introduction, Dong visited his head, but after looking at it for a while, he found that something was wrong. He pointed to the camp below and asked:
"Do you hear this? The west side of this wall is noisy like fire, but the other three sides are a little quiet. Is it emptiness or is it a good time to be in order? ”
Hearing Dong Wan say this, Zhao Pet also felt that something was wrong, just because the other three sides were too quiet, as if there was no one. But Zhao Pet didn't believe that such a big wall was such a small person, there was only one possibility, there were elite soldiers in this wall, and when one side was attacked by the enemy, the rest of the soldiers could still be calm.
In this way, Zhao Pet sighed:
"This Taishan soldier deserves to be the best soldier in the world, but this will really not work, but this is also just the right place to collect his army." After speaking, Zhao Pet also joked with Dong Wan, saying that you have two hundred quintals of hemp rope, it is better to spread my fifty loads, he is afraid that there will be too many prisoners at that time, and the hemp rope will not be enough.
The two were talking, and suddenly there was a change below.
I saw that the west side suddenly burst into flames, and the deep trench here suddenly ignited a wall of fire, directly dividing the Bao soldiers attacking the wall into two sections.
Dong and Zhao were shocked, and immediately led troops down to meet Bao Tao, but they couldn't fold him here.
What's going on?
It turned out that when Yang Mao and Xie Bi were stationed here, they specially built deep trenches on all sides, laid firewood inside, poured fire oil, and finally covered with grass. Originally, the grassland that Zhao Pet saw above was actually empty, and the firewood and grass had already been laid into the trench.
Bao soldiers also saw that this trench was full of grass at first, and it was abandoned in a panic when the thieves left, and then Bao Tao rushed again, so he didn't think much about it, and rushed over.
Guo Liang on the south wall saw that Bao's soldiers were almost rushing over, and immediately asked Zhao Jian behind him to launch a rocket. At one moment, hundreds of rockets were fired at the firewood and grass poured with fire oil, and the fire suddenly broke out.
The Bao soldiers, who had not yet rushed through the trench, were shocked and kept retreating by the fire.
Bao Tao, who was swinging his steps under the wall, saw a wall of fire burning behind him, and was shocked, only thinking that he had been tricked. Then he threw it away, drew out the ring head knife, took a cowhide big piece handed by the guard, and was about to take the troops around the camp.
Who knew that the three walls that were silent before suddenly poured out a team of archers, and for a while, rockets shot out and landed directly on the trench. The four walls of fire that were ignited directly sealed within fifty steps of the outer part of the camp.
Now Bao Tao can't run anymore. He looked at the Yanzhou troops of Zhang and Wang Erjia who were rushing down the western slope, and looked up to the sky and roared. In the end, it was a warrior, and such adversity inspired him to die at all costs.
He turned his head and attacked the southern wall with his troops. He led more than 20 guards, took the lead, biting the ring sword, and climbed the wall with both hands.
These walls are made of logs and are very easy to climb. More than 20 warriors are like apes, climbing left and right, and from time to time someone is stabbed and smashed to the ground by the Taishan soldiers on the wall.
Bao Tao grabbed a stabbed Changge and jumped onto the wall with all his might. Then he covered his head and cut it indiscriminately to cover himself.
He was so mad that a few halberders here hesitated and didn't step forward, just letting Bao Tao occupy this area, and then in an instant, five guards climbed up from behind Bao Tao.
The six of them formed a circle and stood in this place, so that the following parts could continue to climb up.
"Whoosh", "Whoosh", "Whoosh".
Before Bao Tao could react, a Wu Ben shot three arrows from the crowd opposite. His three guards didn't snort, and they grabbed the arrow and fell to death.
Bao Tao was shocked, and immediately picked up a big piece on the ground, and covered himself and the remaining two guards. But now they were blindfolded and couldn't see the outside for a while.
And at this time, a team of Taishan soldiers began to swing all the way with a long glin, these manpower was large, and the Bao soldiers who were smashed by them were all smashed outside the wall.
And Bao Tao also felt a strong attack, and his body leaned back uncontrollably. In this way, Bao Tao and the second protector behind him fell off the wall.
But Bao Tao is fine, there are two guards as human pads, he has nothing to do, and the two of them have broken their necks and are dying.
Bao Tao was furious, and wanted to rush again with the rest of the guards, and at this time, the door of the big wall in the west opened, and nearly a hundred knives poured out at once, they carried the "king" flag, and under the leadership of a brave general, they bumped into the scattered and fleeing Bao soldiers all the way, and they were cut off when they saw people, and the corpses were all over the field, and the whole battlefield was suddenly full of fishy smell.
Bao Tao roared angrily and was about to lead people to counterattack, but suddenly he was stopped by his own guards, and one of the clansmen with a bloody face cried:
"Fifth brother, let's quickly retreat, the walls on the front and right sides are also opened, and they can't be stopped."
Only then did Bao Tao see that not only the west, but also the north and east were rushing hundreds of thieves, waving banners of all colors, shouting to kill the heavens, and no matter what kind of backlash his people organized, they couldn't set off a little wind and waves.
Bao Tao cried, hating himself for being a light soldier, and how many of his hometown children had lost their lives.
He is surrounded by people from his clan, how can he let the patriarch's brother die here, they can die, but Bao Tao must live. Bao Tao lived, and their family could continue to be supported by the Bao family, and if he died, everything would be over.
So the remaining guards gritted their teeth, unloaded their armor for Bao Tao, and then covered Bao Tao with all their clothes, and finally threw Bao Tao over the wall of fire.
The remaining Bao soldiers who were cut off on the periphery, because the fire wall blocked the way, were so anxious that they turned around, and also followed Bao Tao to the south. They had bows and arrows, but they didn't dare to shoot them at all, for fear of hurting Bao Tao.
At this time, Bao Tao, who was covered in fire, was suddenly thrown out, they were overjoyed, and quickly stripped off Bao Tao's clothes, Bao Tao's skin and flesh were already stuck to the hakama, which would be torn off directly, and the pain made him heartbreaking.
But what made him mourn even more was the wailing sound of one after another in the wall of fire, which were all his children, who would be slaughtered by those Taishan dog slaves, he wept, and the tiger's eyes were bloody, and he hit the ground:
"Shoot, shoot me. Not a single arrow is allowed. ”
After speaking, his eyes went black and he passed out.
Bao's archers received the order, and arrows rained down, and the soldiers of Zhang and Wang who rushed to the scene also began to draw their bows, and the whole battlefield was crying. After a moment, there was silence.
Dong Wan and Zhao Chonger, who came in a hurry, saw Bao Tao's miserable appearance, and they all had their hearts. This Tarzan soldier is too vicious.
In this way, the remnants of the two families of the Bao clan looked at the flames on all sides of the enemy, black smoke billowing out, the smell of burnt meat, the smell of blood, the smell of feces and urine mixed with the smell of firewood, and came to their nostrils. Many parts couldn't hold back and vomited.
Zhao Pet looked at the enemy in front of him in the black smoke blankly, and felt a chill in his heart, what kind of soldiers were on the other side, it was such a big victory, and they didn't cheer.
On the side, Dong Wan sighed:
"Now we have to send Bao Tao back, his injury, if he doesn't treat it, I'm afraid he won't be able to stand it. By the way, ask the Hu mother's family, why the army marched so slowly. He won't be a thief, so he will sell us. ”
Zhao Pet nodded, in this situation, they couldn't fight if they wanted to. Not to mention that the tragic situation of the Bao soldiers made the two soldiers cold, just these monstrous fires on all sides, they had to burn out before they could attack.
Just as the two generals were reorganizing the army and temporarily retreating, a news came, which shocked Dong Wan and made him lose his mind, and the army landed on the ground. That Zhao Pet was not much better, and his eyes were dizzy as soon as they were dark.
