Chapter 49: The enemy is in the Temple of Five Eyes
Early in the morning of the second day.
The forbidden army opened and continued to march towards the next border pass.
And at the front of the ranks.
Meng Huai led his 800 rangers and 1,200 light armored infantry, acting as a pioneer.
"Princess, I will see the southeast rain clouds condensing at the end, I am afraid that there will be wind and rain tonight..."
The sun will set.
Meng Huai led one or two light horsemen back to the Chinese army formation, and shouted to the carriage in the team: "Exploring the horse ahead, there is an abandoned temple at the foot of the mountain five miles away, and there are three main halls in the temple, and there are many side houses, just enough to set up camp, please show the princess." ”
Inside the carriage.
Princess Luo Ling and Gonggong Hong glanced at each other and whispered, "But..."
"The princess has an order, and she will camp at the temple five miles ahead tonight." Meng Huai rode on his horse, and shouted while beating his horse forward: "Brothers, speed up the march, go to the temple to make a fire and cook, and camp to rest." ”
As soon as you hear about it, you can rest.
Not to mention the rangers and light infantry who were in the forefront, even the soldiers of the forbidden army who were surrounding the princess's camp were also very happy and quickened their pace.
After a stick of incense.
A breeze gradually rose all around, and the temple revealed its true face in front of everyone.
It is an unknown wild temple.
It looks like it has been abandoned for many years, but the scale of the temple is not small, and there is a five-eyed fierce god enshrined in the main hall.
"Princess, you can get off."
Jiang Xuan led the forbidden army to patrol the temple for a while, and then came back and reported to Princess Luo Ling: "Judging from the traces, the temple has been abandoned for about one or two hundred years, but fortunately it is a mountain stone temple, and it can be lived in without maintenance. ”
"Hmm..."
Princess Luo Ling was dressed in a strong suit and stepped out of the carriage accompanied by Gonggong Hong.
"It's all said that the vicissitudes of life."
Looking at the ancient temple in front of her, Princess Luo Ling sighed: "At present, there is no village in front of here, there is no shop in the back, but there is a magnificent temple, I think that one or two hundred years ago, there were residential towns nearby, but I don't know why it was relocated, resulting in this temple that could not be moved away was gradually forgotten by the world." ”
After speaking.
Maybe it was because of the sadness of the rabbit and the fox, Princess Luo Ling looked at Gonggong Hong again: "Manager Hong, you said that if I didn't survive this catastrophe, one or two hundred years later, would anyone remember me?" ”
What can Grandpa Hong say, he can only say what is good: "The body of the princess's daughter, the heart of a saint, must be blessed with longevity, a thousand years old, a thousand years old, a thousand years old." ”
Raise your eyebrows and smile.
Princess Luo Ling didn't believe in Chitose, and only said: "The palace is tired, clean up this five-eyed temple, set down the phoenix bed, and choose a few more men to relieve my fatigue." ”
"Yes, Princess."
......
The Temple of the Five Eyes can be settled though.
But it still has to be cleaned up, after all, it has been abandoned for a long time, and it has long become the habitat of the animal kingdom.
Of course.
This kind of trivial matter naturally doesn't need to be done by the princess or Jiang Xuan.
Jiang Xuan.
Ascending high and looking into the distance, he looked at Meng Huai and the others, who were supposed to be stationed outside, but had actually cut off the retreat of the forbidden army stationed in the temple: "I'm waiting for you..."
"Crossbow!"
In the temple.
The soldiers of the forbidden army were not idle, because it was the practice of the forbidden army to set up a crossbow every time they set up camp.
At a glance.
The crossbow battalion in groups of three has set up the crossbow on the roof of the house, or at some dangerous intersections.
Although there are not many of them, only thirty-six.
can be paired with the forbidden army main formation where everyone holds a crossbow, such a defensive crossbow array of 1,000 people, even if it is a grandmaster, it can't break through.
"Sure enough, it's a strong army."
Periphery.
Inside the border army camp.
Meng Huai and Dai Zhengzong stood together, looking at the forbidden troops who were camping peacefully with the help of the temple terrain: "Fortunately, there are only one thousand forbidden troops, if there are one or two thousand, we can only be forced to give up." ”
Dai Zhengzong nodded: "With such a strong formation, coupled with a grandmaster-level coach, even the three or five grandmasters dare not rush hard, fortunately, we have also made a foolproof strategy, and the rest depends on the will of heaven." ”
Bang!
Night.
There was a thunderstorm, and the sky was stormy.
Under the camp of the border army.
A group of middle- and low-level officers who had fallen asleep were woken up by each of them and taken to Meng Huai's tent for unknown reasons.
"Captain, what's wrong?"
The crowd was sleeping in a daze, not knowing what was happening.
"The family and the country are unfortunate."
Seeing everyone gathered, Meng Huai nodded to Dai Zhengzong on the side, and then Dai Zhengzong stepped forward and took out a blood letter: "Yang Su, the leader of the forbidden army, has defected to the enemy and betrayed the country, and has imprisoned Her Majesty the princess. ”
"Ahh
As soon as he heard this, a tun chief suddenly hesitated: "The forbidden army is from Beijing, and they are loyal to the country, how can they imprison the princess to rebel against the enemy?" ”
"Oh!"
Meng Huai's eyes froze: "Are you saying that I lied to you?" ”
"The subordinates don't dare." Tun Chang emphasized: "It's just that this matter is very important, and it should..."
Zheng!
The words are not finished.
One of the chiefs drew his sword violently, and with a single sword, it was pierced through the heart.
"You..."
Poof...
Another sword.
Meng Huai held up the blood-stained sword and shouted: "Lin Su, the general of the forbidden army, is in rebellion, imprisons the princess, and wants to surrender to the enemy, brothers, follow me to raise troops, kill into the temple, and rescue the princess." ”
"The enemy is in the Five Eyes Temple!" Dai Zhengzong also drew his weapon and shouted: "The eldest husband is alive, and his fame is in the present dynasty, kill..."
Kill!!
Ranger camp.
The Zuowei Light Armor Battalion was originally brought out by Meng Huai and Dai Zhengzong.
There is a saying called blind obedience.
Especially after the opposing Zhao Tunchang was killed, most of the remaining people were cronies of the two, even if they had doubts, they had to send it.
"What's going on?"
A fire suddenly broke out at the back of the temple.
I don't know what the fire burned, and the thick smoke and dust blew towards the forbidden army camp with the blessing of the wind direction.
"Cover your face..."
Meng Huai and his entourage were prepared, as were the generals of the forbidden army.
Order.
Everyone wet their chest towels to cover their faces, and Princess Luo Ling, who was dressed in armor, also walked out of the room: "Meng Huai, the captain of the ranger battalion, is treasonous, and the generals are ready to meet the enemy." ”
"Kill!"
The two camps are not far from each other.
With the sound of shouting and killing, Dai Zhengzong led the light armor battalion to raise a shield.
"Put!"
The Forbidden Army's heavy bow and crossbow.
Whenever he meets the enemy, he opens the way with a bow and crossbow.
Ding Ding Ding...
Crossbow arrows flew out, some of them were blocked by the shields of the lightly armored soldiers, and some of them flew into the formation and shot over the soldiers.
"Put!"
The light battalion did not have crossbows, but it did have two hundred accompanying archers.
This time the shield bearer blocked the front, and the archers behind also began to shoot back, and for a while you came and went, so it was not lively.
"Pro-soldiers, kill the enemy with me!"
Seeing that it was difficult for the light armor battalion to advance, but it was gradually losing ground in the confrontation, Meng Huai also joined the battlefield with a loud shout.
"Kill!"
Hundreds of good players have been dispatched.
What kind of soldier is this, you make a hook and sickle, he makes a meteor hammer, it is clearly a group of good players.
"What?"
The forbidden army counterattacked with crossbows, forcing everyone not to approach.
And just as the second stalemate was about to begin, the three white-haired old soldiers suddenly burst out, and attacked the southeastern position of the forbidden army with crossbow arrows, and quickly tore them apart.
"The bow and crossbow are not added!"
Seeing the three veterans passing all the way, and the crossbow arrows shot at the two of them were taken aside, someone exclaimed: "Grandmaster, it's Grandmaster, quickly transfer the crossbow." ”
"It's late!"
The reason why the three Grandmasters were hidden among the ordinary soldiers was to get as close to the forbidden army as possible and not be locked in advance by the crossbows.
Now the plan has succeeded.
The three of them immediately joined forces to kill, and in just a few breaths, they killed most of the more than 100 forbidden troops guarding the southeast direction.
"Die!"
Seeing a forbidden army blocking the way, the grandmaster with a wine trough nose didn't want to slap the air.
"Huh?"
Although it was only a palm splitting into the air, and the true qi was two feet away from the body, such an attack was not something that an ordinary forbidden soldier could resist.
But this time, I don't know what's going on, and the must-kill palm was actually dodged.
The face of the wine trough nose grandmaster changed greatly, and what kind of ordinary soldier is this, it is clearly an old monster wearing a small soldier helmet and a crane with a childish face.
"Poof..."
Staggered palms.
Only one person took four or five moves.
The wine trough nose grandmaster struggled to resist, and after four or five moves of parrying, he felt overwhelmed, and was imprinted on his chest with a palm: "You..."
"How about the Miscellaneous Family's Bone Palm?"
The old monster smiled darkly, who else could it be if it wasn't Gonggong Hong.
"Bone Palm!"
"You are Hong Shouquan... Yes! ”
The wine trough nose grandmaster screamed, and the whole person was broken and died on the spot like mud.
