Chapter 328: Good Bow Hide
Less than thirty miles away from Ruocheng, Zhang Wu rode his horse to Taishan and said: "Big brother, Tan Ma Lai reported, Yizhou General Zhang Ren led 20,000 troops into Ruocheng, blocking the return of our army. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½ā
Tarzan groaned slightly, sat on the back of the horse and shouted, "Bring me the map." Chen Dao, the commander of the white soldiers who was responsible for the safety of Mount Tai, immediately took out a folded pile of silk cloth from his arms, and then beckoned to call over two white soldiers, spread out the map on their backs, and presented it in front of Taishan's eyes.
This map was secretly given to Taishan by Zhang Song, called "Topographic Map of Xiyizhou", which recorded the topographical distribution and troop deployment of various counties and counties in Yizhou. After looking at the map in front of him for a while, Taishan suddenly turned his head and said to Pang Tong: "Military Division, there are two roads to Luocheng, one is a big road, the road is smooth, presumably Zhang Ren has already set up an ambush here, and the other is a small road, although it is rugged and difficult, but it is very hidden, and even few locals have walked this road. Please take the small road and lead the troops to speed up, and attract Zhang Ren's attention on the main road, I don't know what the military advisor wants?"
Pang Tong looked at Mount Tai, his heart was quite moved, and he said to Mount Tai: "As the lord said, there are many dangers on the road, and the lord should not take the danger lightly, so let Tong take the big road." ā
Taishan patted Pang Tong's back, and said with emotion: "The military division is wiser than the heavenly man, if there is no military division, can you have today's achievements? The military division is a confidant of a certain important minister, the Jingzhou army can do without Mount Tai, but it must not be without the military division, and I hope that the military division is sympathetic to the Jingzhou soldiers, please take the path. With that, Tarzan turned over and dismounted, handed the reins of the sitting Lu Baoma forward, and continued: "The path is difficult. This BMW of a certain went over the mountains and mountains like walking on flat ground, and asked the military advisor to change horses. ā
Pang Tong hurriedly turned over and fell off his horse, and hurriedly said: "The lord is on the main road, how can he not have this Lu horse? Taishan shook his head, and said with a benevolent face: "The military division is the backbone of the Jingzhou army, if the military division makes a mistake, there is no word to go back to Jingzhou to see the people under his rule." The military advisor doesn't need to say much, please change horses. ā
Pang Tong couldn't twist Mount Tai, so he had to agree to Lu who transferred. After that, Tarzan took off his golden armor again. Personally draped it on Pang Tong's body, helped Pang Tong put on his clothes and armor neatly, and then personally helped Pang Tong to climb on the back of Lu's horse. Taishan's series of actions made Pang Tong grateful, almost shed tears, choked up and said to Taishan: "Thank you for the lord for giving the horse and the armor, the lord will definitely live up to the lord's high expectations, please take your time on the road, you don't have to fight with Zhang Ren." Just attract their attention, and they will definitely take the city and repay the great favor of the lord!"
Seeing the back of Pang Tongtong's pedestrians gradually moving away, the benevolence on Taishan's face slowly disappeared. In its place, there is an endless insidiousness, and this insidiousness is not fully presented on Tarzan's face. And it was fleeting again. "Zizhong, send someone to Luocheng to leak the news to Zhang Ren, and say that a certain will attack Luocheng from a small road. Taishan whispered to Mi Zhu beside him.
At first, Mi Zhu thought he hadn't heard clearly. He looked at Tarzan incredulously, trying to make sure he had heard it wrong. Unexpectedly, the gentleness on Taishan's face revealed a hint of murderous intent, and he repeated what he had just said. Mi Zhu was sure that he had heard correctly, and hurriedly turned around to arrange manpower. When Mi Zhu finished doing what Mount Tai commanded, he suddenly realized in his heart that the "bitter meat" of this bitter meat plan turned out to be the initiator Pang Tong!
When Mi Zhu returned to Taishan's side, Zhang Wu was asking Taishan the question in his heart: "Big brother, if you reveal the news to Zhang Ren, won't that make the military advisor very dangerous?" Taishan glanced at the direction in which Pang Tong disappeared with a slightly regretful gaze, sighed, and replied: "Third brother, this is the idea of the military advisor." ā
Listening to the questions and answers between Taishan and Zhang Wu, Mi Zhu suddenly found that Taishan's approach did not seem to be as simple as using Pang Tong to implement the bitter meat plan, which must involve a lot of secrets. But Mi Zhu didn't ask much, he knew that there were some things, the less he knew, the better, so that he could live longer.
Pushing out a great talent like Pang Tong to implement the bitter meat plan, Taishan actually has his own ideas. First, Pang Tong's status in the Jingzhou army is only second to Mount Tai, it can be said that the second person in the Jingzhou army, such a heavyweight was killed by the Sichuan army for no reason, Taishan will justifiably accuse Yuan Zhang of treachery, and then wave his troops to crusade against Yizhou. Second, Pang Tong has already helped Taishan plan the overall situation, as long as he can successfully take the city, Yizhou will be equivalent to falling into the hands of Taishan, plus Jingzhou in the south, Taishan's wings have been completed, and there is no need for Pang Tong's assistance. Third, the city is the key to this battle, Pang Tong's previous series of strategies have begun to play a role, only this last step is missing, Taishan wants Pang Tong to act as a bitter ploy at the same time, help himself attract Zhang Ren's firepower, and then take the city in one fell swoop. The last point, and the most important point, Taishan is a complete hypocrite, on the surface benevolent and moral, but in fact it is cunning and insidious, Pang Tong is very familiar with Taishan, every decision made by Taishan, there is Pang Tong's plan in it, in order not to let his true image of a hypocrite leak out, Taishan had to let Pang Tong become a dead man.
Not long ago, Lu Baoma and Jin Jia, who were given to Pang Tong, and personally helped Pang Tong to get on the horse and other intimate actions, were deliberately made by Taishan, in order to confuse Pang Tong, so that Pang Tong's smart brain was immersed in gratitude, and the temporary short circuit, willing to die for Taishan. Of course, Taishan's mood at the moment is also complicated, without the help of Pang Tong, he will never have today's achievements, after taking Yizhou, there are still a lot of wars behind, Taishan is actually reluctant to Pang Tong, just treated Pang Tong's intimacy, there are most of them from the heart, but who makes Taishan is an unborn hero? reluctant to let the child not catch the wolf, give up a Pang Tong, in exchange for a large number of Yizhou talents, Taishan thinks that this deal is still very cost-effective. Therefore, the hero Taishan resolutely decided to sacrifice Pang Tong to achieve his imperial dream.
In the city, Zhang Ren soon received the news deliberately distributed by Mi Zhu, and said in shock: "The small road west of the city is not even known to most of the locals, how does Taishan know? Quickly go and inform Lei Tong, take back seventy percent of the sergeants who are deployed on the main road, and go to the small road with a certain person to set up defenses!"
Under Zhang Ren's order, or under Pang Tong's strategy, or under the insidious nature of Mount Tai, Lei Tong, who was deployed on the main road outside the city, quickly gathered seventy percent of the troops, and then rushed back to the city, and then under the leadership of Zhang Ren, they rushed to the road to set up an ambush.
Zhang Ren and the others had just laid an ambush in a place called Luofengpo on the path, and the spies in front came to report. It is said that a large group of Jingzhou troops are marching along the path in the direction of Yucheng, and the leader is wearing gold armor and riding a white high-headed horse, which is extremely powerful.
Zhang Ren, Lei Tong and Ling Bud glanced at each other, and said in a low voice: "This person must be Taishan." Later, when they enter the ambush circle, we don't have to go down the mountain to fight them, just shoot them with bows and arrows!" Ling Bao and Lei Tong nodded, and then dispersed, conveying Zhang Ren's order step by step.
Soon. A group of people appeared on the path, the leader of which was just as described by the spies, white horses and gold armor, and the costume of Tarzan was the same. However, because of the distance, Zhang Ren and others, who were hiding halfway up the mountain on both sides of Luofeng Slope, could not see the faces of the people who came, causing Zhang Ren and others to mistakenly regard Pang Tong as Mount Tai.
Pang Tong rode on the Lu horse. With 5,000 Jingzhou troops, he quickly marched along the path, and soon came to the ambush circle of Zhang Ren and others. A sergeant pointed to a stone tablet not far away and said to Pang Tong: "Commander, look. There is a stone monument there. When Pang Tong heard this, he looked in the direction pointed by the sergeant and saw an ancient stone tablet engraved with three eye-catching characters: Luofengpo!
Seeing these three words, Pang Tong's heart suddenly sank, and an ominous feeling hit his heart. Pang Tong's road name is Feng Xiao, but here it is Luofeng Slope, which is obviously a sign of bad luck. Furious, Pang Tong hurriedly turned his head to observe the surrounding terrain, only to see that the mountains on both sides of Luofeng Slope are dangerous, the trees are mixed, and now it is the end of summer and the beginning of autumn, the branches and leaves are very lush, it is very easy to hide soldiers, even if there are 20,000 people hidden on the mountain, there are no signs of trees from the appearance. Previously, Pang Tongyi was immersed in gratitude to Mount Tai, and he didn't carefully observe the surrounding terrain, resulting in such a dangerous place easily!
"Retreat! Retreat!" Pang Tong hurriedly grabbed Lu's reins and beckoned the five thousand soldiers behind him to retreat. However, Pang Tong's shout was already late, and just when Pang Tong ordered to retreat, Zhang Ren, who was hiding on the mountain, gave the order to shoot at the same time. More than 20,000 arrows and crossbows broke through the air, completely covering the already narrow path under the rain of arrows. The 5,000 Jingzhou troops could not move at all due to the narrow terrain, and in crowded places, they could not even raise their shields in crowded places, so they could only watch as those deadly arrows fell overhead, ruthlessly taking away the lives of themselves and their companions.
Pang Tong's side, more than a dozen guards immediately surrounded Pang Tong, raised their shields to shield him from the arrow rain, but the arrow rain was too dense, only ten breaths of time, the guards around Pang Tong were shot, exposing Pang Tong's figure, and then, a large number of arrows shot down towards Pang Tong's head, Pang Tong was hit by more than ten arrows, and Lu Ma, who was sitting down, was also shot into a hedgehog, and a man and a horse fell weakly in a pool of blood. Fortunately, Pang Tong's body was wearing Mount Tai's golden armor, this armor was extremely strong, and the rain of arrows that broke through the air had lost its strength after shooting through the armor, and most of them were barely pierced into Pang Tong's body less than an inch, and only three arrows were deeply pierced into Pang Tong's left shoulder, lower abdomen and thigh, even so, if Pang Tong was not treated in time, he would still die due to excessive blood loss.
At the critical juncture, a tiger roar cut off the rain of arrows of the Sichuan army, making most of the Sichuan army feel dazed: "Stop! You have all fallen for Taishan's tricks, that guy has already led the army to Luocheng, and the Jingzhou army in front of you is just an abandoned son thrown by Taishan!"
With this tiger roar, Dian Wei's majestic figure appeared at the foot of the mountain on the other side of Luofeng Slope, and after a fateful climb over the mountains, Dian Wei finally came with five thousand land Gui Lishi, but it was still a step too late, and he failed to stop Taishan's conspiracy. Dian Wei carried the two spears that split the ground, and while walking towards the path, he whispered to Hua Tuo beside him: "Mr. Yuanhua, if Mr. Jia Yuan handed it to me, I didn't shout it wrong just now?" Hua Tuo smiled and praised: "General Dian has an amazing memory, such a complicated sentence, I actually remember it word for word!"
Dian Wei's thick nerves made him not understand the meaning of Hua Tuo's words at all, as long as he didn't shout wrong, and the other Dian Wei didn't bother to pay attention to it at all. Raising the Splitting Halberd on his shoulder, Dian Wei roared again: "I am Dian Wei, the general of the eight good generals under the command of King Yan, have you all heard what I said just now?"
Halfway up the mountainside, Zhang Ren stood up and shouted at Dian Wei and asked: "Why do you believe your words? Why do you believe Yuan Qi's words? This is the land of Yizhou, not the six northern states!"
At this moment, a rapid sound of horses' hooves came, and a wounded Sichuan army flew on, galloping on his horse, and shouted loudly: "General Zhang, we have been tricked!" Mount Tai has attacked the city, General Yuanbi, has been killed...... After saying a word, the Sichuan army suddenly fell from the horse, obviously because of the injury and galloping on the horse, he had exhausted all his life.
The shouting of this Sichuan army was like a thunderbolt that shocked Zhang Ren and the others for a long time. Pang Tong, who fell to the ground after the arrow, also woke up at this moment, it turned out that he was sold by Taishan, Taishan used himself as a gunman, attracting Zhang Ren's attention, but he himself took the opportunity to seize the city, at this moment, Pang Tong completely understood Taishan's intentions, Taishan wanted to keep his mouth shut forever, so as not to shake out his unsightly things.
Suddenly, Pang Tong felt that his heart hurt so much, even more painful than the dozen arrow wounds on his body! Pang Tong's eyes gradually began to drift, and the characteristics of life were gradually leaving his body, or rather, his heart was dead, and he murmured in his mouth: "The birds are gone, the good bow is hidden, the cunning rabbit is dead, the lackeys are cooking, the lord, Taishan......! What a ruthless ......."
Just when Pang Tong was desperate to close his eyes, Hua Tuo, who had a kind face, appeared in Pang Tong's sight and said softly to Pang Tong: "Young man, don't despair, you still have a long way to go, and you have to shine more." ā
