Chapter 37: Pursuing the Soldiers and Ambushing the Soldiers

Horses neighed in the valley

Qi Xu had already planned to hide hundreds of war horses in the valley.

After bypassing Fancheng, the rest of the journey is much easier.

Qi Xu ordered everyone to rest for a while in the Wuqi Valley, and they tied up the concubine's nest with a cloak, and arranged to ride with the deputy general Huan Min.

At this time, there are still more than ten miles away from Fancheng, even if you don't take the official road, cover from the suburban road, the momentum of hundreds of horses is mighty, it is inevitable not to alarm the Fancheng police post, so you wrap the horse's hooves with cotton cloth, and get sick at night.

Yan had doubts in his heart, so he didn't ask unpleasantly, "Ziqian, let's bypass Fancheng like this, don't you want to use the concubine's nest to catch the big fish of Takayanagi?"

Qi Xu said with a smile, "Xiao Yan, don't worry, I have already arranged it properly, how can the soldiers of Fancheng City do it, and see you in the Giant Snake Gorge." ”

Yan smiled and said, "The young general loves to sell Guanzi so much, I have to guess!"

Qi Xu smiled and said, "You have been tired for four years, the art of war should always be unfamiliar, guess it!"

"Ziqian, you also underestimate me, you have already told me such important information about the Giant Snake Gorge, I can't guess anymore, didn't you learn the art of war with General Qi for five years in vain?"

Qi Xu laughed and said, "Don't talk about it, guess it quickly!"

"The giant snake canyon is long and narrow, the mountains on both sides are steep and straight, and there are buckets at the exit to garrison troops, so easy to defend and difficult to attack the terrain, after the major general set up the ambush, he only needs to attract Gao Yanagi. ”

Qi Xu tapped his shoulder with a horsewhip and smiled, "Good boy, it's the material of the general." ”

Yan saw that he had a somewhat depressed expression after laughing, and his mind turned slightly, "Young General, don't think too much, let's fight one battle at a time, I don't believe that I can't make a good fortune!"

Qi Xu looked at him and smiled, "The government and the opposition are all gloomy, only Xiao Yan is arrogant!"

In the twilight of the night, a hundred horsemen galloped, Qi Xu deliberately left a team of men and horses behind, pretending to accidentally expose his whereabouts, attracting the Fan Cheng army to chase and kill.

When Qi Xu led the army into the Giant Snake Gorge, it was fifty miles away from Fancheng at this moment, the night was deep, and the entrance of the canyon and ditch was a little quiet.

The sergeant lit a torch and went into the valley two miles, brandishing the torch signal, but he didn't want to be killed by a cold arrow.

The two rows of torches on the wall lit up one after another, and two rows of reckless bandits appeared, and a man dressed as a mountain bandit leader laughed, "Major General Qi, you can't think of it, the praying mantis catches cicadas, and the yellow finch is behind." ”

Qi Xu frowned and ordered his subordinates to disperse and hide, and replied on his own horse, "Where did the thief come from, how did you know that I Qi Xu was here." ”

How could Yan let him go into danger alone, but the giant snake canyon was really narrow, and he could only ride through it, and he could only take a plan behind.

The mountain bandit smiled and said, "The tall man is clever, but Qi Xu, you are pretending to be smart!"

Qi Xu snorted, "So you are Gao Yanagi's general, I don't know which number one person it is." ”

The mountain bandit replied, "Yes and what, no matter what, Qi Xu you are too lenient, so I have to send you on the road early, if there is any problem, go to the underworld and ask the ghost." ”

Qi Xu's eyes were cold, "Where is my ambush?"

The mountain bandit made a gesture of clicking and beheading, "They are all waiting for you on the Huangquan Road......"

Qi Xu's hand was fast, and an arrow from his bow hit him in the throat, but the mountain bandit didn't expect him to be in a desperate situation and dared to take the lead, and his throat grunted and his face was full of disbelief and fell down from a high place.

Qi Xu didn't stop at the end, and the bow shot out in succession, shooting down three people one after another.

The bandits were shocked, and hurriedly extinguished the torches and pierced the rain of arrows.

Qi Xu's subordinates were the Savior's generals, and they also seized the opportunity to launch together. Yan turned over lightly, blocked the bandits' shots, and covered Qi Xu to retreat to the entrance of the valley.

"Major General"

"Major General"

Several generals surrounded him.

"That's the end of our 3,000 soldiers?"

"In less than an hour, the Fan Cheng army will be killed, what are the countermeasures?"

"Calm down! Calm down!"

Qi Xu stopped everyone from discussing, this group of mountain bandits is only more than 100 people, how can it be possible to kill all his 3,000 volt soldiers?

What's going on here?

Looking at Yan, Yan also has doubts floating in his eyes.

"Major General, is there a fine ...... in the army?"

Qi Xu winked at him and stopped him from going on, Yan understood that it was not appropriate to dissipate the morale of the army at this moment, so he changed the topic, "Have a detailed topographic map?"

"The topographic map was left at the Adjutant General Di, who was ambushed here. ”

"Does the major general know how Adjutant General Di set up an ambush and the distribution of troops?"

Qi Xu's face condensed slightly, "Deputy General Yi has led the troops for many years, I know his ability very well, and I will not intervene too deeply, and he will arrange it!"

"Major General, how should we act in the current situation?

The bandits were intent on delaying their journey, and Fancheng's forces would soon catch up and flank them.

Qi Xu looked at the winding and long dilemma of the Giant Snake Gorge, and lowered his brows, "Gao Liu knows our troops, if he comes to chase and suppress, according to Fancheng's garrison, the number must be between three and five cadres." ”

"We only have five hundred at the moment, and when Fancheng pursues the army at the end, Wuti Valley can't go back, how about we retreat to Qixia Mountain first?" said a general, "Qixia Mountain is vast and has many forks, and it is not a problem to get rid of Fancheng's chasing soldiers." ”

Qi Xu lowered his brows and said unhappily, "The last battle is cowardly first, and the soldiers are taboo." Xiaoyan, tell me about it."

Yan cleared his throat and smiled, "I'm just afraid that Gao Yanagi Mo can come in person." ”

Qi Xu smiled slightly, "Then you can rest assured, with me, he will come in person." ”

When they saw that they were not sad but happy, they were all perplexed in their hearts.

Yan's eyes lit slightly, "Then I will suppress these bandits on behalf of the young general." ”

Qi Xu looked at him, his eyes moved slightly, "I'll go with you!"

Yan touched his nose and coughed, "Young General, you can't be in danger, I'm enough for one person." ”

The general said, "What are you kidding, the mountain stream is so steep, even if you can do it, the Fancheng army will be killed if you climb up." ”

There is a deputy general Huan Min who was originally a member of the Western Expeditionary Army, and he is even more confident, "The young general stays, or let the generals and Xiaoding brothers go!"

Qi Xu smiled and said, "You don't have to fight with me, I just want to see what kind of situation this kid's karmic cultivation has reached." ”

Yan was helpless, "Ziqian, do you still want to compare yourself with me?"

Qi Xu was proud, "Why not?"

"Take the rope. Yan didn't need to climb the rope, so he took a hang for Qi Xu. His eyesight is extremely strong, and seeing things with a glimmer of light is not a problem, waiting for the claws to be fixed, he pulled the rope and smiled, "Ziqian, I'll take the first step." The figure swayed and rose up.

Qi Xu took a slight breath of cold air and scolded with a smile, "Good boy!" He was a tiger with a strong sense of victory, and he refused to show weakness at the moment.

Yan turned to the top of the cliff after a few ups and downs, and his skills were like ghosts, and he couldn't see the soldiers talking, "Mom, this place is too powerful!"

"I thought that the first class martial arts of the major general would be difficult to meet an opponent...... I didn't expect this little Ding brother to be even better, it's just extraordinary!"

Knowing that they would be silenced, there were still soldiers who sighed.

The bandits were unprepared for a surprise attack, only to feel that a figure passed by with great speed, and after receiving a heavy blow to the body, they lost their resistance and fell unconscious. When Qi Xu climbed up, the thieves on this side of the cliff had already cooked six or seven out of ten, Qi Xu took a breath, "The rest is mine!"

The thief on the other side of the cliff heard that something was wrong, and shot arrows in a panic, Yan didn't care about the exposed traces, his body skyrocketed, met the rain of arrows, and said with a smile, "Okay, this piece belongs to you." ”

Qi Xuji and the bandits took over, and knocked down the first two with heavy fists, and the later bandits had heard the sound of besieging them, and it was inconvenient for him to carry a spear when he climbed the cliff, so he kicked up the big knife on the ground at this moment, and killed among the thieves, brave and unstoppable.

Yan blocked a burst of arrows, suddenly rose, a big leap over the cliff, he was kind to leave room for his shot, not to kill people, but those thieves only saw him hands up and down, where can they tell whether the fallen person is alive or dead, is crippled or injured, the heart is cowardly, some people besiege and attack, and some people quietly retreat, cover the night and escape.

But although their minds are long, Yan's breakthrough speed is short.

The high place of the Giant Snake Gorge is in mastery again!

The dilemma of being attacked by the enemy on the back is broken, like divine help, and everyone in the Qi Xu Department is excited.

Qi Xu summoned 20 soldiers to the cliff to collect the prisoners and extract confessions.

He stood on the top of the cliff and looked out, Yan understood his thoughts, "Ziqian, why don't I go around and look for it?"

Qi Xu said slowly, "Wait and see what clues can be asked in the confession!"

"Ziqian, accept the reality, you can't ask their whereabouts in your confession, there are indeed small works or traitors among your subordinates. ”

Qi Xu's expression was gloomy, and he said hatefully, "I just can't guess who it is!"

Yan sighed, "It's useless to think about such things, don't guess, the Fan Cheng army will arrive in a blink of an eye, and it's not too late for the major general to take down Gao Liu and ask again." ”

Qi Xu looked at him fixedly for a moment, "Okay!"
