"It's dangerous to move from left to right, to climb the tomb and look up to the mountain slope, to go against the ground and dig deep into the clay, and to work hard on the ground." Tongdian Bing Twelve
Lu Meng looked at the enemy knight Du Bo who was close at hand and slashed at him with his sword. He instinctively raised his hands to block, but he forgot that he had just dropped the knife on the ground. At this time, he was unarmed and stood blankly.
It was as if he was scared out of his wits.
A sneer appeared on the corner of Wang Zifu's lips. He judged that Lu Meng was a new recruit who had just experienced the battlefield. A waste like this should be taught the cruelty of the battlefield.
He speeded up his horse and stretched out his saber from the side. At the critical moment, the stunned Lu Meng suddenly threw himself on the ground. Not only did he avoid the beheading knife, but he also quickly grabbed a knife from the ground.
He took the half-abandoned spear and stabbed it under the horse's belly, which was not covered by the light armor.
The horse suddenly whined, its front hooves missed, and it struggled to throw the unprepared prince off the horse.
"Ah!" Wang Zifu wailed in pain. As soon as he fell to the ground, his right heel was trampled by the falling horse's hoof.
"I remember your voice. You led people to chase Uncle Cheng and I in the woods. Do you know who they are?" Lu Meng picked up the knife, stood there and ignored the prince's clothes, and said word by word: "Chengdang, Song Dynasty
Ding, Xu Gu, a native of Xiapi, Xuzhou, followed General Polu on many expeditions many years ago. They are my uncles, my elders, and my closest people. They taught me riding, fighting, and
I went to do what I wanted to do, and you took them all away."
Lu Meng paused for a moment, then said again: "Tell me whether you should die or not."
"It turns out it was the little scout who escaped earlier. I didn't find you all the way afterwards, so I thought you were a deserter." Prince Fu took advantage of Lu Meng's sad memories, limped one foot, and stood up with force.
, looked at Lu Meng warily.
"I'm not a deserter!" Lu Meng seemed to be enraged and slashed at the prince's neck with his knife.
The prince's suit barely raised his sword to block it. The vibration from the blade shocked him. He had never thought that this boy was very strong. However, those who can enter the Yueqi camp are all those with superior physical strength, and physical strength also refers to bravery.
With physical strength, the prince's suit can enter the Yue Cavalry Camp, and it is natural that he is not only good at riding.
At this moment, the distance between the two of them was only a stone's throw away. Lu Meng was only fifteen years old at this time. The boy's body was not yet mature, and his strength, skills, experience, etc. were far inferior to those of the adult Wang Zifu. It was just because Wang Zifu fell down immediately that his legs and feet were injured, making it difficult to move.
, the two of them were almost tied.
At this time, the prince's hundred cavalrymen saw that the chief officer did not follow him, so they sent twenty cavalry back to look for him. When they saw the two men fighting from a distance, they urged their mounts one by one and came at a gallop.
Lu Meng was not a reckless person. He could not do anything when things happened, so he decisively turned around and left. He deliberately kept a careful eye on him. When Wang Zifu caught up with him, he turned around suddenly, rounded the knife and slashed at Wang Zifu's neck. Unexpectedly,
Wang Zifu had already prepared himself and blocked the blow with his sword: "Boy, do you think I don't know this trick of yours?"
He subconsciously stretched out his legs to kick. With a little force, he felt a heartbreaking pain in his right ankle.
In such a moment of distraction, Wang Zifu was suddenly slashed in the back with a knife. The knife went straight from the back of his head to his right shoulder, knocking off his back. Wang Zifu was hit hard and he didn't have time to scream.
He fell aside.
After Wang Zifu fell down, Lu Meng saw clearly that the man was his brother-in-law Deng Dang. He was deeply moved. He looked at Wang Zifu who was still breathing and subconsciously wanted to give him a stabbing blow.
"That's enough! If you don't move away, the enemy cavalry will come after you!" Deng Dang hugged Lu Meng's arm and pulled him back.
After the twenty riders arrived, only one of them got off the horse to check Prince Fu's injuries and helped him onto his horse. The other nineteen riders kept on chasing Lu Meng and others.
"Kill them!" shouted an enemy knight who also had green shoulder straps sewn on his shoulders, but only had two horizontal bars.
The wind blew by his ears, and Lu Meng felt a chill on his face, as if water was flowing across his face. Deep in his heart, it seemed that some beast was roaring and roaring, and his heart was beating powerfully.
, the boiling blood made his whole body hot. He turned to Deng Dang and shouted: "Why don't you let me continue to give him a knife!"
Deng Dang glanced at him lightly and ran with Lu Meng until they crossed a rack of antlers and jumped into a long chasm. He breathed a sigh of relief and said, "You will get revenge soon."
Only then did Lu Meng realize that Deng Dang's body was covered with blood, that someone had made a deep wound on his chest, and that his helmet was missing. His hair was disheveled, and he looked as embarrassed as a defeated soldier.
As if aware of Lu Meng's concerned gaze, Deng Dang pretended to be calm and said, "Now do you know what it's like to fight?"
Lu Meng soon found out.
When the dozen or so horses rushed towards them, the soldiers hiding in the long trenches emerged one after another. They ran like tigers and wolves, working in tacit cooperation. Some used bows and arrows to shoot the horses and riders, and some used spears and shields.
Intercept and block. There were not many arrows, but few of them missed, so that the menacing enemy cavalry were constantly hit and wounded by arrows. Although some of our own soldiers were accidentally injured by arrows, it had nothing to do with the overall situation. This was a temporarily arranged ambush.
The cavalry who were caught off guard were quickly routed.
Nowadays, Lu Meng had no idea that there was such a technical method in fighting. He originally thought that fighting was just about relying on personal bravery, struggling to kill, and at most cooperating with his companions. However, he never thought that there were so many ways on the chaotic battlefield, almost every inch of it.
Every land contains dangerous murderous intent.
"Do you think this is a trick of riding bulls and fighting with people in the countryside?"
"This is war! People are going to die!"
"Want to be a general? Look at what you look like now!"
Deng Dang's words echoed in his mind again. Lu Meng looked at Deng Dang's back as he fought bravely to kill the enemy. His eyes showed confusion at first, and then gradually became firmer, as if he had found the way forward in the thick fog.
This small-scale ambush was not an isolated case on the battlefield. The incoming enemy only had a few hundred cavalry, which was quickly discovered by Sun Ce, Lu Fan and others. On the one hand, Cheng Pu, Han Dang and others assigned elite troops to try.
Fighting and trapping these hundreds of cavalry, they were alert to other directions and were ready to retreat back to the city with the support of Sun Xiang in the city. Since the enemy's main force is not here, it means that the cavalry may come from any direction.
.
Not far from the battlefield, in the quiet forest where no one was paying attention, there seemed to be countless pairs of eyes following every move on the battlefield.
"Even if we are on guard, we can't get away at this time." The deep voice of Yueqi Colonel Tian Chou slowly sounded from the forest: "The people sent have found Captain Zhang. It won't take long. Li Tong, Xu Chu
They will come back with their private soldiers who are still capable of fighting."
The cooing sounds of birds came from the forest, and the timid birds did not dare to return to their nests. They only stood on the branches of the trees and stared down at a certain dark corner.
No one answered, but suddenly there was a sigh, like a dead soul repeating the sadness in the forest. The sigh was like a high chess match where it is difficult to meet an opponent, and the loneliness of being in the cold: "I thought he was a capable person, but I didn't expect him to stop."
Here it is.”
"It's so boring."
As soon as he finished speaking, it was as if someone had given an order in the dark, and then more than two thousand cavalry rushed out from the forest. This was the main force of the Yueqi battalion. They had divided their troops into two groups as early as the beginning.
One hundred people along the way were responsible for breaking through Sun Ce's camp at the rear and attracting firepower. The other group was to outflank Sun Ce from the rear and give the opponent a fatal blow at the critical moment. 11
