Chapter 207: The Broken Gut Valley is a mystery
Kublai Khan's 10,000 elites, Ali Buge's 70,000 troops, and Xiang Shibi's beggar gang and his own army fell into a fierce battle in the Broken Gut Valley, and Kublai Khan struggled to support and wait for reinforcements from the direction of Helin, which was the only key to his victory.
It's a pity that the reinforcements from the direction of Helin encountered the nine masters rescued from Juxian Pavilion in the narrow valley of Xinbri, and the 100,000-strong army did not move forward an inch, suffering heavy casualties.
Kuji and Ma Yi and the other ten people were like a strong city defense, they joined forces to attack, relying on the terrain, unstoppable.
At the critical moment, a white shadow shook into the earth city, only a shape-shifting phanteur, and the nine masters were instantly injured one by one, and there seemed to be no room for resistance, even the most powerful bitter pole was hit by a palm without seeing this white shadow clearly, and he took a deep breath.
The nine people plus Ma Yi were not the opponents of this person, and they were injured in an instant, which shows that this person's martial arts cultivation can be called a master of the transformation realm.
Kuji and the others supported each other and looked at the old man in front of them, but they saw him with his back to everyone, his long hair fluttering in the wind, his temperament was clear, and he had the style of an immortal.
"As long as you wait for the safe withdrawal and let these soldiers pass, I will not embarrass you. The old man said,
Youya raised the sword and wanted to try again, but he knew the general situation best, and knew that in the face of such a profound opponent, the only way to leave the back road was the best policy, and he stopped Youya in time.
Qu Zicheng was also well aware of this, and he could already clearly feel that the skill of this person in front of him was above the Five Yuan Venerable.
Ten people were evacuated immediately, and the prancing horse left.
Brother Xiang Xiang didn't know this person, no one really saw the old man's true face, and before Brother Xiang Xiang immediately stepped forward to thank him, the old man disappeared without a trace.
In the hearts of Qu Zicheng and others, perhaps another layer of confusion about the current world will be added, which is a kind of psychological confusion that only masters have, and a kind of confusion that masters are like forests.
For Ma Yi, this is a god, because he has never seen someone with such a high level of martial arts, strong enough to defeat the nine top masters in an instant.
And for this rivers and lakes, those fine wines that have been fermented for a long time are finally going to reappear in the rivers and lakes, intoxicated with martial arts.
Brother Yixiang continued to march with his army in the direction of the Broken Gut Valley, and the king's banner roared in the wind, and after passing the narrow dirt slope of Xinbri, there was no longer any obstacle to stop this mighty flood.
Ma Yi knew that the mission had failed, and on the way he urgently asked Kuji about his next plan, and Kuji was deeply thoughtful, and soon predicted what would happen next.
The sun was scorching, and it was nearly noon in a blink of an eye, Kublai Khan's army suffered heavy casualties, but he still adhered to the original belief and struggled to support, he was waiting, waiting for the appearance of Brother Xiang, he believed that as long as Brother Xiang's army arrived, all the sacrifices were very worthwhile.
However, the Phase-shifting Brother did not appear at the scheduled time, and the dawn that Kublai Khan had been waiting for gradually dimmed until it was dim enough to doubt himself.
Fa Si Pa and Liu Bingzhong, who had always been steadfast, also began to feel a little uneasy, and they tried to persuade Kublai Khan not to gamble anymore, and broke out while Wang Shi's guards were still there.
Kublai Khan rejected the suggestion of the two, and he still chose to believe in the transfer of the brother, even though the war had reached the point of white heat.
The afternoon sun was in full bloom, and the ground was steaming hot, and the smell of blood was evaporated.
The sound of hurried horses' hooves came from the rear of the Song army,
"Report, General, Mongolian reinforcements have arrived five miles from the rear. "The Song army scouts dismounted and reported to Xiang Shibi,
"How many people are there?" asked Xiang Shibi, looking up at the mountains and forests in the distance behind him.
"No less than seventy thousand. The scout said,
Xiang Shibi was not surprised, but decisively gave the order to retreat in time.
In the end, it is a general who knows the overall situation, and knows that the reinforcements must be a dead end.
Immediately, the Song army blew the horn of retreat, and the Song army took alternate cover and withdrew to the periphery.
When Kublai Khan saw the sudden retreat of the Song army, he knew that reinforcements were coming, and his tense nerves gradually eased.
An army of 100,000 marched towards the mouth of the valley, the horse's hooves broke the ground, and the sound trembled.
Kublai Khan looked at the Mongol banner in the distance, and only thought that the reinforcements had brought hope and victory, but he didn't know that the reinforcements had instead become the fuse for Zongzheng to lay down this situation.
In Zongzheng's layout, the emphasis is on the right time, the right place and the right people, and the right place and the people are all occupied, but what is lacking is the time of the day.
The reason why the valley is a valley is naturally because of the terrain formed by the long-term accumulation of the earth's crust.
Zong Zheng once read Yuan Ji Zhenren's Bo University question on geography in Pangu Qunfeng, and he deliberately cited it as a quote from the Broken Gut Valley.
In the unstable crust, any strong trigger will lead to the deterioration of the terrain, directly above the valley is a large lake, Kublai Khan according to the plan of the emperor to blow up the embankment, flooding Ali Buko's army, flooding the entire valley floor, and the northeast mountains experienced a fire because Kublai Khan forced Ali Buko's army into the valley.
This kind of unstable topography, and experience a flooding, while the fire roasting situation, is very easy to trigger the sudden movement of the earth's crust, until noon, the yang energy is gradually flourishing, the slow urging of the fight inside and outside the valley, has prompted the whole valley of broken intestines into a loose state, at this time, the most needed is a large-scale imbalance of impact, and the rush of 100,000 reinforcements has achieved that key impact, like a fire into the powder magazine.
Just when Kublai Khan was full of joy, the entire Broken Intestine Valley trembled inexplicably, and everyone could not stand still, and the cliffs on both sides were accompanied by vibrations, and some rocks rolled down.
The most incredible scene also appeared in an instant,
A crack opened in the ground, a huge crack, and a raging stream of water gushed out of it, and the raging water was really rare.
Perhaps, only Zongzheng himself understands that under the surface of the Valley of the Broken Intestine is a natural underground channel, and the water in the lake rushes into the Valley of the Broken Intestine, but does not gush out of the mouth of the valley, but quickly disappears on the surface, perhaps, the army of Ali Buge, who has just experienced flooding, or Kublai Khan, who is immersed in the joy of success, is not aware of this problem.
The shaking of the ground caused cracks in the surface, and the flow of water that had been suppressed by the thick surface could no longer be suppressed, and suddenly gushed out along the cracks.
The Valley of Broken Gut instantly turned into a Lake of Broken Gut.
Trembling, flooding, burial, rolling rocks, the entire valley of broken intestines is like a hell on earth, becoming an inhuman crematorium.
This was unexpected, and even Fa Sipa and Liu Bingzhong, who had always been wise and cautious, were too tired to save their lives and protect Kublai Khan, and did not have time to reflect and understand.
When the earth's crust stabilizes, the endgame will be like this.
The ground is mottled with blood and water, and the corpses are all over the field,
The sound of snoring, **, is endless
Fortunately, the reinforcements were separated from disaster because they were far away.
As for the reinforcements, they arrived in a hurry, but before they could understand what had happened, they were hit hard.
The uninjured rear reinforcements hurriedly launched a rescue.
Liu Bingzhong and Fa Siba relied on their superb martial arts to keep Kublai Khan thoughtful.
Although Kublai Khan had not yet woken up to what had happened, he still realized for the first time that since something had happened, although it was very different from the result he expected, there was no time to pursue this, and at present, organizing rescue as soon as possible, reducing Mongolian casualties, and cleaning up the battlefield was the most urgent priority.
After several hours of continuous cleaning, those who should be saved, and those who should be caught, until late at night, were cleaned up.
The sky had not yet dawned, and the sky was covered with a layer of black clouds.
Liu Bingzhong, Fa Siba and others led hundreds of guards to escort more than 30 prisoner carts, taking advantage of the cover of night to go in the direction of Dengzhou City.
On the prisoner car, the martial arts masters of the various factions in the Central Plains who survived by luck, as well as several foreign masters such as the ghost-faced old monster.
Suddenly, more than 100 black-clothed people were killed in the middle of the road, and they rushed straight to the prisoner car, and several of them split the prisoner's cart to save the prisoners, and the leading black-clothed man successfully rescued one of them and said: "The Great Khan has specially ordered me to come to answer, go quickly." Suddenly, the rescued man slapped the man in black and shook him off the car.
The man in black saw that the rescued person was Kuoduan, and exclaimed, "Why are you?"
The broad end of the volley kicked at the man in black, and the foot fell heavily on the abdomen of the man in black, and the man in black immediately spurted blood and died.
After a while, hundreds of troops poured out of the surrounding area, surrounding all the black-clothed people, and in a moment, all the black-clothed people were all killed.
Tumian Na** immediately stepped forward to report to Liu Bingzhong and Fa Si Payu: "Lord Xingtai, the national teacher, all the black-clothed people who hijacked the prisoner car have been killed. ”
Liu Bingzhong ordered: "Okay, let's hurry back, and we must ensure that everyone is safely escorted to Dengzhou Prison." ”
Tumian Nayan commanded, "Yes, my lord." With that, a few hundred people rushed back.
Ku Zhi, Nan Luoxing and others were trapped by iron ropes and placed on top of the prisoner cart, and hundreds of people escorted more than 30 prisoner carts with torches and walked cautiously.
When they reached a dense forest, suddenly more than a dozen black-clothed people jumped out of the forest, they moved quickly, several people worked hard, and killed dozens of guards in an instant.
Liu Bingzhong led hundreds of people to rush back, and suddenly a fast horse rushed forward, and a wounded soldier said: "Lord Xingtai, it's not good, the prisoner car has been attacked." ”
Liu Bingzhong was shocked: "What? There are even people who hijack the prisoner's car. With that, he hurried back.
When Liu Bingzhong arrived, more than 20 people were escorted away by a group of black-clothed people, and Liu Bingzhong hurriedly chased after him.
Seeing that there were eight black-clothed people in front of them, Fa Siba and Liu Bingzhong didn't care, and wanted to lead people to rush over directly, but the eight black-clothed people saw that Liu Bingzhong and the others were getting closer and closer, so they gathered their internal forces, and the internal forces of the eight people gathered together and went to Liu Bingzhong and others.
The men and horses that rushed in front were immediately attacked by a strong internal force, and they were injured and fell off their horses.
Fa Si Pa exclaimed: "Strange, where are there eight such powerful characters?"
Liu Bingzhong said: "That's it, let them go, let's go back quickly, we must not let the people of Juxian Pavilion escape again." ”
Fa Siba said, "Well, go back and discuss it again." With that, the two led the group back.
Liu Bingzhong and Fa Siba escorted Nan Luoxing and others back to Dengzhou, put them in the dungeon, and sent heavy guards to guard them. Then he came to Kublai Khan's camp to report.
