After the third watch, the crescent moon in the night sky had gradually set, and the last trace of light in the pine forest leaked out, shining on the faces of the man in black and the soldiers behind him, gloomy and terrifying. The black-clothed man and several plain-clothed masters straddled their horses and walked at the head of the team, followed closely by the soldiers of the three armies, people did not dare to say much, the horses did not dare to neigh, and under the silent night, there were only hungry wolves wandering in the distance, and crows flying in the trees.

The wolf wailed, and the crow whined.

At that time, it was already the end of April, and although the slight coolness of the evening could make people feel refreshed, everyone had already felt tired after running for a long time, and in addition to the fear of the man in black in their hearts, there was also a little fear of the desolation and gloom here. Therefore, this seems to be the army of three thousand elite tigers and wolves, but at this time, it has become the end of the strong crossbow.

Walking into the depths of the pine forest, everyone had already traveled more than 20 miles, the man in black stopped at his horse, looked back at the state of his subordinates, and couldn't help but worry, if he had no combat power, if he wanted to conquer the Gongsun Mansion hidden in the dark, it would be difficult to climb to the sky!

Therefore, the three armies were ordered to stand by in place, and more than a dozen exploration horses were sent forward to continue the exploration.

At that time, the situation changed in a blink of an eye, and it was up to who could seize an opportunity before the fight. The two sides are well versed in this, but Zhou Yi is at ease and waits for work, and is naturally in the upper hand, those scouting horses traveled less than three miles, and were suddenly killed by the cold arrows of the Gongsun Mansion soldiers hiding in the dark!

Zhou Yi ordered people to make a decisive move, directly took the head of the probe horse, and used the tiger head prepared in advance to frighten the horse coming from the opposite side. The horse was astonished, turned and ran back, carrying a headless body on its back, and galloped wildly. Zhou Yi ordered the troops not to move, and his soldiers were thrown into ambush among the treetops and ravines, and the heads of the horses fell to the ground, and everything fell to a deathly silence!

"Tanma is back......"

The man in black commanded the three thousand terrified troops, and he was thinking of sitting back and waiting for work, but he was sitting on horseback with his eyes closed, when he suddenly heard someone report!

The forest was foggy, and they could only see five paces away except for the sound of horses' hooves. The man in black was afraid that the comer would be deceitful, so he ordered the shield soldiers behind him to set up a formation to prevent trouble.

"Light the torch!"

At the sound of an order, the soldiers raised their fires around the head of the team, shouting at the figures running in the fog: "Stop!"

Through the fog, it was faintly visible that there were people sitting on the horse, but there was no tendency for the horse to slow down and stop, and in hesitation, the frightened horse had rushed to the front of the formation, and the shield soldier who went straight to the head of the formation collided with it!

"Stop ......"

Someone lifted his spear and stabbed at the horse, and in the dim light of the fire, the headless corpse sitting on the horse was clearly visible!

"The head is gone!" suddenly someone shouted!

When everyone heard this, they all drew their swords and guns, and the panic was indescribable.

As soon as the words fell, five or six more horses carrying headless dead bodies neighed and rushed back!

They were originally all battle-hardened warriors, but once they were in the here and now, it was like entering a ghost gate where death would come at any time, and those who were not strong enough couldn't help but cry wolf!

The man in black was distraught, a wave of anger suddenly rose, and with a five-foot long sword in his hand, he roared angrily, and slashed the people who shook the hearts of the army and those frightened and manic horses! For a while, the three thousand men and horses were silent!

The man in black shook his blade, pointed obliquely forward, sneered, and said to the left and right: "I'm worried that they won't make a move, now it's okay, they're in front!"

So he turned the horse's head and ordered several lieutenant generals behind him to lead 800 soldiers each, and march in parallel on the left, center and right, so as to prevent the front and back of the team from being elongated, and it is easy to be cut off from the left and right.

After the three-way people advanced, there were hundreds of others and those few plain-clothed masters on standby. The egg hurts

"Sir, when are we going to strike?"

"Don't worry, now I can conclude that the person I want is in front, no matter how he lays it out, a few people in a declining marshal mansion can compete with my three thousand elites!" The man in black was ready to go, but he still understood the current situation and the bias of morale, so he held some of the remaining men in his hands in case of emergency.

The army slowly advanced three miles, and was already close to Zhou Yi's ambush. Zhou Yi and Gongsun Ji stood on top of the high post, looking at the firelight that was lined up on the opposite side, and couldn't help but sigh: "This person Dong Bing, you can't be taken lightly. ”

"And when are we going to make a move?"

Zhou Yi frowned and said, "Let's let our people trigger the trap first to break their shield soldiers, and then shoot the opponent's horse archers with a crossbow, we must not let them easily pass the first obstacle!"

Gongsun Ji was a little hesitant, nodded and hugged his fists and said, "Father!"

Zhou Yi was stunned, and his thoughts suddenly pulled back from the current situation, and then he remembered that he was still a Shiweng, and hurriedly said: "Oh, what do you think about it, there is no father and son before the battle......"

Gongsun Ji said: "According to the report, the other party has 3,000 elite horsemen, and we, all the combined manpower is less than 100 people, among them, you have to divide into three teams, and there are fifty or sixty people in the lead! Not to mention how fifty or sixty people can resist three thousand people, just say that the two pairs in the back, each team is only a dozen people, how can you think I can win?"

Zhou Yi looked sideways and said, "You don't trust me?"

Gongsun Ji hurriedly bowed his head and said: "My subordinates don't dare! I know your prestige back then, but after all, at this time and that time, you have no soldiers in your hands, no matter how good the strategy is, will you be safe?"

Zhou Yi couldn't help laughing and said: "The whole house is working together, everyone is willing to fight each other to death, it can be said that they will die and then live, how can they say that there are no soldiers available?"

"However, there is a huge disparity in the strength of the enemy and me!"

Zhou Yi shook his head and sneered, looking at the Gongsun Ji in front of him, who was the son of man, he must have known all the deeds of Shi Weng back then, although he could already confirm Shi Weng's identity, but without Shi Weng personally admitting it, he still needed to confirm it. So he pretended to sigh with emotion and sighed: "Forty years ago, the Turkic warrior Ashinada Dun led 200,000 iron cavalry and approached me towards the back frontier! His army was everywhere, and I was defeated and retreated one after another, and for a time, the government and the opposition were shaken, the capital was in an emergency, and the people were scattered! Do you know ......?"

Speaking of this, Zhou Yi deliberately paused to test Gongsun Ji's reaction. Unexpectedly, Gongsun Ji took his words without thinking, "I know all this, but back then, father, you also had a large army in hand, I heard you say that you and Uncle Dongguo led dozens of people to go sideways, that is, there are people behind you, you have nothing to fear." Let me ask, if Mr. Yu hadn't attacked the Turkic grain depot from the rear at that time, causing chaos in the hearts of the Turkic soldiers, how could you successfully retreat from the enemy?"

Zhou Yi listened to his words, froze, and didn't reply for a long time. He asked himself countless times in his heart, this apocalyptic hero who lived in seclusion here at the moment was really a heroic general who deterred the Turks and won a brief peace 40 years ago! What was the reason for that a battle-hardened man who had made great achievements in war could be reduced to incognito and live a life of exile? What kind of person was he who had to kill this old man completely! Under his heart, which he wanted to say and stopped, there was another puzzle that was difficult to think of even when he hollowed out his mind, Ji Heng was dead back then, and how did the current Shiwen come back from the dead?

A series of questions were in front of him, and he couldn't come back to his senses for a long time.

"Father?" Gongsun Ji asked in a low voice, "Are you thinking of Uncle Dongguo again?"

Zhou Yi was taken aback, turned around, and couldn't help the tears in the corners of his eyes, "Don't worry, we will all be safe tonight!"

Gongsun Ji nodded silently, seeing him like this, he no longer doubted his strategy.

Zhou Yi said angrily: "They raided at night, we have already prepared, the enemy is plotting and I am plotting, I am not able to plot the enemy, this is the time of day." For them, the Baili pine forest is an effective guarantee to prevent their war horses from exerting their strength, but for us, it is a helper who is waiting for an opportunity, which is a geographical advantage. At present, the brothers in my house all have the courage to rush to the death, and the other party is a tired army that has been running for thousands of miles.

Gongsun Ji looked excited when he heard this, and clenched his fists and said: "Then I will go to safety, this first time, I will definitely make them suffer a lot!"

Zhou Yi looked indifferent, "Go ahead!"
