Chapter 67: The First Bullet of the Meter
But not to mention that Xiao Rang and several leaders on the side of Qingfeng Mountain began to arrange tactics, and the teams of Baihu Mountain and Peach Blossom Mountain on this side had already seen Qingfeng Mountain not far ahead.
The people and horses of Baihu Mountain are in the northeast direction, the boss of this team is the owner of the second village, Xie Bao, nicknamed 'Double-tailed Scorpion', and his brother Xie Zhen are all hunters in Dengzhou, because of the pressure of life, they actually moved to Qingzhou, and later settled in the villages and counties near Baihu Mountain, but they killed people by mistake when they were arguing with others, and then they fell to Baihu Mountain and fell into grass. Both of them were born martial arts wizards, and they were powerful since they were young, but they had no opportunity and failed to learn martial arts. However, when they were 15 years old, they went into the mountains to hunt and accidentally met a tiger sleeping and sleeping, and the unique rhythm of their breathing greatly infected the two of them, and they both comprehended the method of breathing in the qi of heaven and earth! Later, they repeatedly observed the tiger's usual posture and movements and the changes in the muscles of the whole body when hunting, and thus summed up a unique set of internal kung fu "Tiger King Tour"! With this set of martial arts created by themselves, the two brothers actually reached the realm of the Dacheng of the Six Heavens, and they were only one step apart, and they were the innate masters that everyone in the martial arts yearned for! Among the two brothers, the younger brother Xie Zhen's force is even more powerful than that of the elder brother, and he is the first hero of Baihu Mountain.
With Xie Baolai is the deputy owner of the village, Kong Ming and Kong Liang brothers, these two are rich children from nearby villages, who just joined the cottage in pursuit of temporary happiness, but they don't want to embark on a road of no return. Because of a few crimes, the government arrested their entire family, and although they sent money to the upper authorities and rescued the whole family, they also depleted the family property, so that their old father was angry to death. Since then, their brothers have been honest bandits.
These two brothers are not very old, and their skills are neither high nor low - the internal strength cultivation in the middle of the Triple Heaven, but they have a good master, that is, the famous 'timely rain' Song Jiang and Song Gongming in Shandong. And the reason why Baihushan joined the 'Northern Green Forest Society' so smoothly this time is also what these two brothers said, so I won't show it here for the time being.
However, it was said that the three of them led the team on horseback, and they did not march in a hurry, and they were only one or two miles away from Qingfeng Mountain. For Qingfeng Mountain, Xie Bao didn't care at all, for a big cottage with thousands of people, what was a small village with only a few hundred people?
Xie Bao rode a yellow horse, holding a pole and two steel forks in his hand, a felt hat of tiger skin with tiger stripes, a red and black robe, with his round tiger eyes, and slightly upturned tiger whiskers, which looked majestic and magnificent.
Kong Ming and Kong Liang were slightly half a horse behind, they were both riding variegated white horses, their young faces, and they were both holding wooden poles and spears, although they were not very imposing, they also looked heroic.
In the rear, they are all the elites of the cottage, all of them are strong and strong, vicious and arrogant, although they are not very neat on the whole, but they also have a fierce and brutal atmosphere.
Along the way, they didn't see a single person from Qingfeng Mountain, in Xie Bao's eyes, the other party must have been scared and ready to surrender, so they had no intention of fighting. But Kong Ming and Kong Liang are inexperienced, and they haven't thought about strategy and tactics at all, because they have always rushed directly to cut people.
......
Qingfeng Mountain Southeast Trail, is more than 800 people in Peach Blossom Mountain, and the first is the second village master of Peach Blossom Mountain, 'Little Overlord' Zhou Tong.
There is only one overlord for thousands of generations, that is, the unparalleled 'Western Chu Overlord' in the world, and in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, Sun Ce of Jiangdong was young and brave, and was called the 'Little Overlord'. These two people, in the entire history, can be regarded as a number of heroes, and this Zhou Tong actually proclaimed this name, do you really think that you can be compared with Sun Ce and Xiang Yu?
When it comes to martial arts skills, Zhou Tong can only be regarded as a third-rate master in the rivers and lakes, that is, an ordinary master, and compared with Sun Ce, who has been passed down for thousands of years, it is far from the invincible Xiang Yu, which is invincible for all ages, and there is no comparison at all! But Zhou Tong is also born extraordinary, that is, he is a special man! What does it mean? That is to say, his room skills are very powerful, the royal maid is undefeated, and he is known as the overlord. Regarding this, he simply thought that even if the overlord was reborn, he was not necessarily his opponent, so he called himself 'Little Overlord'.
If Xiang Yuquan knew that someone had borrowed his name for this reason, I wonder if he would have risen from the ground and led his three thousand disciples to kill Zhou Tonglun a hundred times?
Zhou Tong didn't expect that the nickname 'Little Overlord' was really effective, and many people came to him because of this nickname, which was also an unexpected joy. Of course, those people don't know the story behind the name. (If you do, you must only have some female soldiers coming to join you.) Since then, the nickname of 'Little Overlord' has been completely associated with Zhou Tong.
Zhou Tong* is a brown-haired horse, not particularly a divine horse, but it is also tall, with its head dangling, carrying Zhou Tong slowly. Look at the time, it's almost noon, and at this rate, you can end the battle by tonight. Zhou Tong was holding a long-pole knife in his hand, wearing an armor, and a cloth towel on his head, which looked a little nondescript, but it was also very powerful. He has broad shoulders and a wide body, and he looks very powerful in armor, and when he doesn't use his hands, he even gives people the illusion of majesty! Just looking at this appearance, it can be regarded as worthy of the name of 'little overlord'.
Zhou Tong recognized Yang Lin's words, thinking that it was the time migration of Qingfeng Mountain that stole his wealth, and he originally hated Qingfeng Mountain, so he encouraged Li Zhong to join the 'Northern Green Forest Association', and then contacted Baihu Mountain to raze Qingfeng Mountain. Zhou Tong was very happy, because he could finally take revenge, and he could get his wealth back by the way.
Although the hatred in his heart was unquenchable and burned his heart like a flame, the eldest brother told him to be cautious and follow the plan he had made every step of the way. He has always obeyed his eldest brother's words, so he has no choice but to suppress the hatred in his heart. Li Zhong saw his unhappiness, "Revenge is like a cat playing with a mouse, let the enemy be at the mercy of himself, let him perish step by step in despair, then he will be truly happy!" After listening to the eldest brother's persuasion, Zhou Tong suddenly figured it out, so the march all the way was neither fast nor slow, this was to torture the other party's nerves and bring the biggest panic to the other party's army.
The phrase 'soldiers are noble and fast' is reasonable, and no one thought of it at this time.
Ahead, less than five miles from the foot of the mountain, the armies on both sides began to rest in place and eat and drink. Everyone only carried a day's worth of food and dry food, because no one thought that Qingfeng Mountain might survive a day.
......
Breeze cottage, everything is ready.
"A quarter of an hour has passed, and it seems that they really didn't take us seriously, and gave us time to prepare to defeat us head-on. Pei Xuan frowned, he is good at training, but he is not good at using tricks, before Xiao Rang said that the enemy is likely to despise them and will not rush to the army, but will only follow step by step, waiting for work, but he didn't expect it to become a prophecy.
Although it is more secure for the enemy to do this, it also gives them more time to prepare, so that they can calmly arrange, and even defeat the strong with the weak, and turn defeat into victory.
"It's ready over there, how is the arrangement on your side?" Shi Qian's voice came suddenly, and his figure flashed.
"It's done, the key is up to Brother Yanshun and Brother Pei Xuan. "Wang Ying has been preparing in Dazhai because he is most familiar with the cottage.
"Don't worry, we'll take care of it. Pei Xuan is no longer worried, because there is no point in worrying about it now, as for Yan Shun, he is still drinking, as a real drunkard, he has to drink when he is about to fight.
......
Xiao Rang was dressed in dark green clothes, hidden in the treetops of a large tree at the top of Qingfeng Mountain, where he could clearly see the two teams resting at the bottom of the mountain, one in the north and the other in the south, separated by trees and the ridge of Qingfeng Mountain.
Not far behind the big tree where he was, more than a dozen people were dormant, all staring at Xiao Rang on the treetops.
Suddenly, they saw the man in the treetop with his right hand behind his back and making a gesture.
"The leader has an order, and he is almost ready, let the other side start acting!" The dormant ones are all scouts personally selected by Xiao Rang, who are specially responsible for waiting for Xiao Rang's instructions here, and then conveying the order to the battlefield in time.
Soon, Shi Qian on the other side received an order, and without hesitation, he took the prepared men to the designated place according to the plan and began to implement the battle plan.
......
At noon in summer, the sun was very scorching, and Zhou Tong was also burned by the sun and lost his temper, took off his armor, and his clothes were open. Of course, even the leader is like this, and the other people are naturally even more unbearable, plus more than an hour of running, they are already tired and hot, and once they rest, it will not be over for a while.
They didn't know that five miles to the north, the team of Baihu Mountain could not get up, and it was similar to their situation, except that this side was close to the ridge, and the ridge was a forest, with lush leaves, very tall, and it was actually a locust forest! The place where they rested was only less than a hundred paces away from the locust forest!
And to the south, just when Zhou Tong hid in the shade of a small tree on the side of the road to cool off, and was about to fall asleep, he felt a slight vibration in his ears, so he put his ear to the ground, trying to hear clearly.
The sound of "knock ......" was endless, it sounded like the sound of horses' hooves, Zhou Tong quickly turned over and shouted to his subordinates to prepare for battle. At this time, the others also heard the sound of horses' hooves, in their southwest direction.
A squad leader who was very bold on weekdays immediately said to Zhou Tong, "Leader, look over there, there is so much smoke and dust, it is not much worse than what we marched just now, it must be hundreds of people marching in a hurry, are these soft eggs in Qingfeng Mountain going to run!"
"*, they just ran away? Didn't we come for nothing? Leader, let's chase it!" The other squad leader was also a little angry, he ran so far and didn't catch anything, how could he go back so easily?
Zhou Tong is not a person who likes to use his brain, hearing that both of them said this, and the other party fled like this, he must have brought the money stolen from him, which he must get back! "Damn, do you still want to run in front of Lao Tzu? brothers, give Lao Tzu some spirit, catch up, and let them know why the flowers are so red!"
"It's so red!"
"Chase!"
"Chase!"
The movement here naturally did not have any impact on the five miles away, and Xiao Rang on the top of the mountain also kept issuing instructions one after another.
Although the situation in the south and the north cannot be seen, the slight shaking of the earth cannot escape the feeling of the master, needless to say, Xie Bao is definitely standing in the ranks of the masters, and naturally feels the vibration of the earth, and the source of this vibration is the direction of the Peach Blossom Mountain army.
This naturally brought Xie Bao a wrong message, that is, Peach Blossom Mountain was ready, the rest was completed, and they had already set off. He was a little unhappy, this was different from the original script, and he didn't know what to do for a while.
Xie Bao has always pursued the principle of 'only hands, no brains', and he used to be on the side of his brother, and the two of them solved things together, Xie Zhen was responsible for thinking of ideas, and Xie Bao was responsible for implementation.
After so many years, he has developed this habit of not using his brain, and now that he has no instructions, he really doesn't know what he should do.
Fortunately, Xie Zhen arranged two deputies for him, who were responsible for reminding him what to do in this situation, and these two people were naturally Kong Ming and Kong Liang.
The three of them summed it up, and they also decided to set off, after all, they were already allied, and they couldn't let the friendly forces dominate the front.
They were about to give an order when they saw a commotion in the mountains and forests not far away, and then hundreds of arrows rained down from the forest and landed in the crowd on the side of Baihu Mountain, bringing out patches of blood and screams.
"What about our scouts!Why haven't we detected an ambush!" Xie Bao roared angrily as he shot down the arrows that came at him.
"You didn't send scouts at all, Erzhai Master!" explained to the person next to him, so that De Xie Bao was stunned and almost hit an arrow in his knee!
This is also because they have no experience in leading troops to station, you must know that every time you don't enter the forest, the unknown woods are dangerous! Even if you want to rectify here, you must send scouts to prevent people from sneaking up on the camp! It's a pity that both holes are too immature and inexperienced, and Xie Bao has no military ability at all, so it is naturally easy to ignore these, after all, they have not undergone special training, even if they are elite, they are only slightly stronger in personal combat strength.
This round of shooting was followed by another round of shooting, which took away more than 300 soldiers from Baihu Mountain, as well as some wounded. They all went up the mountain, leaning on the trunks of the locust trees one by one, each of which was more than ten or twenty zhang high, and the two of them hugged each other so thickly, of course, it was enough for them to hide.
On the top of the mountain, seeing that the people of White Tiger Mountain had entered the forest, Xiao Rang on the top of the mountain made another gesture and asked the last two scouts to inform the order.
In the end, Xiao Rang glanced at Zhou Tong's group of people who were chasing the 'deserters', the corners of his mouth hooked, his body shook, and his toes lightly tapped on the tree a few times, falling to the ground like dragonflies.
"It's time to close the net. Xiao let one speed up and ran in the direction of the enemy below the mountain, leaving only a soft voice echoing in place.
In the woods, a one-sided battle is going on. Due to the unfamiliar terrain, insufficient rest, excessive sweating, and the shadow brought by the two rounds of arrow rain just now, the morale of the Baihu Mountain side was low, and the battle was weak. But the situation of other people is not so good, because the people and horses of Qingfeng Mountain are called armies in comparison, and they have the combat quality of the army, while those of Baihu Mountain are just a bunch of grass cowards, and in such a battlefield, they are naturally not the opponents of Qingfeng Mountain. What's more, after the reduction of three or four hundred, the number of soldiers on both sides was almost the same, and in this almost one-on-one situation, the front of Baihu Mountain collapsed almost instantly, and the casualties were quite large.
Xie Bao was cool, but although he had the upper hand, he still couldn't solve these two people in a short time. Yan Shun's internal strength cultivation is average, only in the early stage of the Fifth Heaven, but his stick technique is very strange, the angle of attack is very tricky, every time he makes a move, it is always difficult for Xie Bao to grasp the opponent's target; Xie Bao asked himself, no matter which of these two people fought alone, they couldn't make twenty moves in his hands, but when they joined forces, they could bring him a hint of threat, and it would be even more difficult to defeat them.
Xie Bao felt that his subordinates had suffered heavy losses, and even the two deputy village owners were slightly injured under Wang Ying's attack, and he also knew that he was defeated this time and didn't want to fight again.
"Hunting Tiger Tail Swing!" was a move he created when he watched the tiger hunt with an iron tail, and it was very powerful, and it was a burst of blows. The steel fork threw a large arc, so that Pei Xuan and Yan Shun had to dodge, and when they turned around, there was no more understanding treasure and two holes on the field, leaving only the corpse on the ground and the side of Qingfeng Mountain covered in blood.
Xiao Rang did not participate in this battle, as the commander of this battle, he was actually the first time to lead so many people to really fight on the battlefield, to say that he was 100% sure in his heart, it must be false. His previous calmness was just to let it all go smoothly for everyone to see.
He found a scout and asked him to bring news to the heads of the leaders.
At the end of the battle, Qingfeng Mountain's side was so tired that they lay down, and nearly 1,200 people in Baihu Mountain were wiped out in this battle, only Xie Bao and others escaped, while their own losses were only nearly 100 people, and twenty or thirty of them died from the crazy killing when Xie Bao fled! From this, it can be seen that the lethality of high-level martial artists on the battlefield is really too strong, because Xie Bao is not yet innate, and he has such strength, so how powerful is the innate grandmaster? No one knows about this problem until it happens.
"Win!" Qingfeng Mountain's cheers have not stopped since the moment of victory, and Yan Shun and the others have not stopped.
"I didn't expect it, I really won!" Yan Shun couldn't imagine that he had just created a miracle with his own hands. "We can't relax, there are still nearly a thousand enemies, we can't make any mistakes, otherwise we will lose all our efforts!" Although Pei Xuan was excited, he was cautious, but he did not completely relax.
"Well, having said that, but after this battle, I am very confident, I didn't expect that brother of yours to be so powerful, our cottage is now a treasure!" Yan Shun smiled, a little obscene.
"He's a part of the cottage now, and you're your brother, don't be too outlooked, or he'll be unhappy. ”
"Hmm!" Yan Shun nodded.
