At first was a burly man, holding two steel rings, one large and one small, who was obviously the leader of this group of horse thieves. I saw him carrying the reins and shouting, "I opened this mountain, and I planted this tree...... Kill it or bury it!"

It turned out to be a robbery, and he shouted out such an old-fashioned classic incision, Zuo Liangyu couldn't help but be angry and funny when he heard it.

A general in front of the official army shouted: "Who are you, dare to stop the march of the bandit army, don't you want your life!"

The thief leader said: "This king is Chu Changting, the chief scoop of the 'Yujing Underworld Alliance', and his own brother Chu Xiaotai is also! You hurry up and hand over the money for buying the road, and each person will not be less than fifty taels and one penny, if not, this king will lead the Black Eagle to ride all of you dog officers and soldiers to see the king of Hades!"

Chu Changting's brother Chu Xiaotai Zuo Liangyu was stunned when he heard this.

Chu Changting is the head of the underworld in Yujing, Zuo Liangyu has also heard of it, and he also knows that there are fifty black eagle horsemen under his command, and he is notorious for his murder, and Chu Changting was killed in the first battle of Taohuayu only a few days ago, and the news has not yet reached Zuo Liangyu's ears.

This time, Zuo Liangyu led the army to aid Fugui Villa, and his uncle Zuo Junhua mentioned in his letter that the "World Alliance" of the underworld was the help of his own side, but he didn't expect that a Chu short platform that blocked the road and robbed here actually claimed to be Chu Changting's brother.

On the top of the mountain hundreds of zhang away, Hua Bushi and others were also watching the situation under the mountain.

Chu Yiyi couldn't help but smile and said: "Let Liu Yuanhe pretend to be the leader of the bandits, such a bad idea can be thought of! ”

Hua Bushi smiled and said: "Elder Liu's martial arts are strong, and his figure is strong, there is really no more suitable candidate than him to pretend to be the head of the thief, this matter happened in a hurry, where can I find these many sets of heavy armor, I can only make it together casually." Anyway, as long as the names of Chu Changting and Black Eagle Xiaoqi are reported in public, so that many people can hear them, no matter if he Zuo Liangyu doubts it or not, he can always let the 'Underworld Alliance' carry this black pot for us. ”

Yang Sichang also smiled: "Zuo Liangyu has always been competitive, since Yi is the first fierce general of the dynasty, today here was robbed by a group of underworld grass robbers, suffered a big loss, and when I return to Beijing in the future, I am ashamed to tell others, and I will not have any troubles." ”

Zuo Liangyu at the bottom of the valley couldn't hear Yang Sichang's comments on him, so he only waved his hand and shouted: "General Huang, bring twenty cavalrymen over and drive these grass robbers away!"

If it were on weekdays, Zuo Liangyu would have swung his army up and killed all the horse thieves who dared to block the road, but today he was in a hurry to rush to Fugui Villa, and secondly, he heard that the other party claimed to be Chu Changting's brother, regardless of whether it was true or not, it was not convenient to kill them all.

In his opinion, this group of thieves who didn't even have neat armor was enough to send twenty elite horsemen to give them a taste of power.

However, this time Zuo Liangyu's judgment was a big mistake, although this group of horse thieves was untidy and shabby, but their strength was not weak.

The yellow general obeyed the order, immediately ordered the twenty heavy horsemen of the front team, and rushed over with shouts.

However, just as they rushed to the front of the group of horse thieves, they saw that the thief roared loudly, jumped from the horse's back into the air, and the iron ring in his hand swung out, and smashed on the head of the general surnamed Huang!

Liu Yuanhe is the elder of the dignified "Luohan Gate" and a famous hero of the Yujing White Dao, but this time he wants to pretend to be a horse thief to do this thief who cuts the path and robs the road, and he is ashamed and indignant in his heart. When Hua Bushi proposed it before, Liu Yuanhe was resolute not to do it for a while, but the vicious dog young master moved out the instructions of the head senior brother Fang Changsheng, claiming that if he didn't do so, he would not be able to stop Zuo Liangyu's people, coupled with Yuan Xi's bitter persuasion, he finally reluctantly agreed.

The previous incision, Liu Yuanhe completely memorized it word by word according to what Hua Bushi taught, although he opened his mouth to say it, he also felt extremely cowardly. At this moment, seeing that the yellow general was rushing straight over with a team of cavalry, he immediately vented all his anger on these officers and soldiers.

Liu Yuanhe usually doesn't use weapons, and the double ring is extremely uncomfortable with him, but with his strong internal strength and martial arts cultivation, no matter what weapon he uses, it is not small. This type of volley is amazing, and the yellow general is just a low-level general in the official army, where can he resist it?

In the muffled sound, the double ring had hit the door of the head at the same time, and the iron helmet was smashed down, and the yellow general didn't even have time to shout, and was immediately knocked off the horse and lost his life.

At this time, the rest of the officers and soldiers had also rushed to the front, but they saw that the forty or fifty horse thieves with crooked helmets and slanted armor also came up with their weapons. These "horse thieves" are all good players selected from dozens of Jianghu sects, and their martial arts are not weak, even if they can't fight the top masters, they are still more than enough to deal with these officers and cavalry.

The blades clashed, and the screams were repeated, and in a few moments, the twenty cavalry officers and soldiers were knocked off their horses. Seeing that the situation was not good, an officer cavalry who rushed to Zuihou hurriedly pulled out his horse and fled back, but a cold light suddenly flew from behind him, and it was Liu Yuanhe who threw a steel ring out!

The steel ring was in the back of the heart, and the cavalryman screamed miserably, and was hit by the huge force contained in the ring, so that the horse's back flew forward more than two feet, and then he fell to the ground with a "bang", and died of exhaustion!

Seeing that this cavalryman was killed in front of his horse, Zuo Liangyu's face was already blue with anger. He could also see that the group of horse thieves on the other side were all equipped with martial arts, and they were not as unbearable as they looked on the outside, but the other party only had forty or fifty people, and they dared to openly commit murder in front of his army of two thousand, which was simply bold!

Until now, he didn't care if the other party was Chu Changting's brother, and shouted: "The former soldiers obeyed the order, charged in a wedge shape, and killed the horse thief!"

There are hillsides on both sides of this Broken Dragon Gorge, but the open space in the middle is more than ten zhang wide, and the cavalry has enough space to charge.

Just now, it was too light for the enemy, and the twenty horsemen rushed forward without forming a formation, so that they were taken by the other party and suffered a big loss. Zuo Liangyu's front team had a total of 500 horsemen, and the power of the heavy cavalry charging in array was not trivial, even if the gang of horse thieves were all strong in martial arts, they would definitely not be able to resist it.

Sure enough, the horse thieves did not dare to meet the enemy when they saw the heavy cavalry rushing towards them, and immediately turned to the valley and fled, running faster than the rabbits. Zuo Liangyu was willing to let them escape, shouted and ordered the front army to pursue, and five hundred iron horsemen rushed forward, following the horse thieves to chase down.

However, not long after this big drama of horses chasing rabbits was staged in the canyon, something happened again. The brigade rushed to the middle of the canyon, only to hear a loud gong sound, and the hillsides on both sides of the canyon shouted and killed, and countless stones and logs fell down!

There was an ambush!

The slopes in the valley were not steep, and they were not suitable for ambushes, but these logs and stones rolled down the hillside, and the momentum was not small, and the officers and cavalry who rushed to the bottom of the slope raised their reins and horses to dodge, and for a while, the formation was inevitably chaotic, and the men and horses were blocked between the valleys.

The forty or fifty horse thieves who had been on the run earlier turned their horses and galloped back at this time, and they did not rush straight to the solid place of the official formation, but swept past the cavalry on both sides, who had fallen into confusion, and took advantage of the chaos to fight, and in the blink of an eye, they cut down more than ten soldiers.

Zuo Liangyu did not rush with the army, but he saw clearly in the rear of the team, and there were actually more than 100 people in ambush on the slopes of the mountains on both sides, pushing the stones and rolling logs that had been prepared for a long time down the hillside. These people, who had previously been hiding in the grass, came out now, all of them covering their faces with black cloths, and they were also dressed as underworld bandits.

"Team C, the garrison team listened to the order, made a detour from both sides, and rushed up the hillside to kill the thieves in ambush!" Zuo Liangyu roared.

Because the hillside is not steep, although it is difficult for the horses to rush at full speed, they can also climb up, and the two teams of officers and soldiers ordered by Zuo Liangyu have 100 horsemen each, and after hearing the order, they immediately rode their horses to outflank the hillside.

The bandits on the hillside were also rabbits, and when they saw the officers and soldiers surrounding them, they shouted, "The wind is tight, pull it quickly!" and they all turned and fled, and fled very quickly. By the time the cavalry rushed to the slope, they had already escaped a hundred and ten feet and burrowed into the woods in the rear, and the woods behind the hillside were quite dense, and it was difficult for the heavy cavalry to enter.

There was no ambush attack on both sides, and the officers and cavalry in the center of the valley finally had a chance to assemble, but when they gathered their ranks and lined up again, the bandits on horseback also turned around and fled.

The chaos in the valley lasted for a while, and the officers and cavalry were killed more than thirty people, twenty or thirty wounded, and dozens of horses were smashed by rolling wood and stones, which was not a serious casualty for an army of 2,000, but it was a real loss.

Seeing all this, Zuo Liangyu seemed to have swallowed a belly of coals, and the whole person was about to explode by this anger. He was brave and good at fighting, that is, he fought with the Manchu Iron Cavalry in Liaodong that day, and he did not suffer this kind of loss, and what was even more infuriating was that those bandits left when they got cheap, and they did not lose a single person!

This time he was ordered to lead the army to Yujing to suppress the bandits, Zuo Liangyu originally thought that what he was going to fight was just a group of mud-legged croppers, which was not worth mentioning at all, but he didn't expect that after winning the Biluo Cottage in the first battle, he lost three hundred heavy cavalry inexplicably, and he didn't know who the attacker was until now.

He was not at the scene of the battle that day, but today he personally led the army, but he was still damaged by a group of bandits, and he was beaten and lost face.

Just as Zuo Liangyu was gritting his teeth, he saw a soldier galloping to the front and said, "General Zuo, I found a piece of wood in the middle of the road ahead, and a line of words was written on it. ”
