The woods were quiet, except for the low sound of talking, snoring, the crackling of wet wood from the fire, and the occasional quacking of unknown birds and beasts nearby.

Zhang Wen's previous secret words were to select more than 100 sergeants according to the order of the Zhang, and under the leadership of the outpost, they went to sack the Jianyu village. After the sergeants got the order, they began to divide and cooperate, except for those who accidentally fell into the trap of Orion, most of them had already arrived in the village, Zhang Wen left more than ten people to guard the exit of the village, and the rest of the people quietly sneaked into the village with weapons in hand, jumped over the fence and jumped into each house, the sound of knives smearing their necks, blood gushing, and people falling to the ground was particularly clear in the silent night.

The armies quickly robbed everything they could use. After the robbery, the group threw the torches on the hut, threw the corpses into the fire, and then gathered the team and left. After returning to the camp, Zhang Wen asked people to distribute the stolen grain to the battalions, and everyone was busy cooking a meal and eating wildly, and the nerves that had been tense these days were finally relaxed.

The army rested until morning, then gathered its army and continued on its way. Zhang Wen still sent scouts to guard the left and right to keep the news. After rushing for a while, suddenly the scout behind rushed over and said, "My lord, it's not good, Jianyu's pursuers...... The lowly found Jian's pursuers. ”

You can't fight hard. He immediately ordered the whole army to speed up the march, and everyone knew that the pursuers were coming, and they all quickened their speed, and they were already exhausted, and they were full and hungry for the past few days, and everyone's physical strength had dropped so badly that they were out of breath.

Dead branches and leaves accumulate in the mountains all year round, and a thick layer is spread on the ground, and walking on it is like stepping on the mud. Zhang Wen almost fell down several times, but fortunately he was supported by Zhang Ying in time, and when he was walking depressed, he suddenly thought to himself, since there are so many dead branches and leaves, why not use fire?

He immediately looked up and saw that the mountain was lush with ancient trees, and the ground was covered with fallen leaves and dead branches, which was too easy to set on fire.

Zhang Wen looked at the branches of the trees that were swaying in the wind and judged that the wind direction was from west to east. The troops were immediately ordered to turn to the west and sail against the wind, while scouts were sent to monitor the distance and direction of the captive army. The Ming army fled westward for a while, and the scouts reported getting closer and closer to the enemy. Zhang Wen judged that Jianyu was just downwind, so he ordered the army to set fire to everything that could be ignited.

Zhang Wen knew that the Jianyu army was not so stupid, and when they saw the fire coming, they were waiting to be burned to death, so they would naturally run, and maybe they would make a detour to continue the pursuit. He hastily ordered the army to maintain the speed of the march and hurry westward.

After most of the night, the Jianyu army approached again, and there was a tendency to outflank it, and the battle suddenly became a race to run, and it was a race to see who could run faster. The Jianyu army in the rear has approached the rear army of the Ming army, and the battle has unfolded in the move, and the Ming army is naturally not an opponent, it is equivalent to being chased and killed, running forward desperately, and heart-rending screams are heard from time to time in the dark.

The horizon in the east is gradually white, but for the Ming army, the "light" does not know when it will come. At this time, everyone walked to the end of the woods, and when they came out of the woods, they suddenly heard someone shouting in surprise: "Side wall, side wall, our Ming side wall!" ”

Zhang Wen looked up at the mountain outside the woods with difficulty, and saw that on the top of the mountain, in the dim sky, an endless Great Wall appeared in front of him. The battlements, the outlines of the walls, look so mighty, so exciting!

Zhang Wen almost cried out: "Within the wall is my Ming land, Ming ......"

How many emotions are contained in that sound. The Ming Dynasty is also very dark, and it is not a paradise on earth, but it is a place where everyone lives, where everyone has their hometown, there are relatives, friends, a warm hearth, there is food, everyone speaks the same thing, and it will not be chased and killed like pigs and dogs like now.

But the Great Wall to the west is still high on the mountain, and the peak is so steep that it is impossible to climb it. Zhang Wen calmed down and shouted, "Hurry up and go south, find a flat place along the side wall, and move closer to the side wall." ”

At this time, another Jianyu army outflanked from the south and completely cut off the way of the Ming army.

The defenders on the Great Wall saw the crowd at the foot of the mountain, and the beacon towers everywhere had been lit with wolf smoke, wolf smoke swirling in the air, and the horns whining and wailing.

The Ming army under the mountain shouted loudly to the Great Wall: "Da Ming...... Daming ......"

Those defenders gathered above the surrounded Ming army, but there was nothing they could do, and when they heard everyone chanting Da Ming, the defenders felt sorry in their hearts. The shouts, with crying, were full of emotion, and they had to be moving.

Zhang Wenjian saw that there was no way, such a dead place, unless he could fly, there was basically no way. He drew his sword and said in a loud voice: "Today we will die here, the last battle!" ”

When the army heard this, they stopped running, wiped away their tears, and began to line up to meet the battle with the determination of the last fight.

The Ming army, dressed like beggars, had long since been discarded, and only some of them were still wearing helmets and standing in a neat line, many with only sharpened wooden sticks in their hands. Someone fell at any moment, but there was no noise around, almost silent.

The Ming officers and soldiers on the city wall wiped tears from their eyes, and someone shouted: "Aim at Jianyu and fight me, support the brothers under the mountain!" "There was a thud of fire on the city wall, but the number of people was too small to have little effect on the prisoners, and occasionally one or two people could be killed.

Zhang Wen stood behind, pointed his sword to the east, and shouted, "Order Wang Xi's troops to attack!" ”

There were no snare drums, and the three battalions in the rear shouted in unison to embolden them, and the front battalion advanced forward in the rain of arrows. Zhang Wen also ordered Zhang Zhao's troops to follow up and form the depth of the attack, and the other two battalions protected the left and right flanks.

In an instant, they met in a short time.

Zhang Wen's subordinates knew that they had no way out, and they were extremely brave, and they actually killed Jianyu and retreated step by step, suffering heavy casualties. The lamb to be slaughtered in Jianyu's eyes became a tiger, and the two sides fought hard. The sound of killing under the Great Wall shook the sky, flesh and blood flew up, and the battle was very fierce. The Jianyu infantry desperately resisted the offensive of the Ming army, and all the forces were surrounded and killed on all sides.

Seeing this, Zhang Wen shouted: "We are all people who have survived a hundred battles, and we have escaped enough, so we rushed forward and destroyed Jianyu." ”

"Rush—"

The ragged sergeants immediately pounced, the Jianyu infantry had just changed the formation, and before they could be rectified, the Ming army had already killed the generals, and there was a scuffle for a while, and the outcome was unpredictable......
