Go to the top of the mountain and put the gunpowder bag under the boulder.
After lighting the medicine twist, Shang Kexi covered his ears and hid behind a big rock. Shang Kexi, who always prided himself on being brave and fearless, was already like this, but there were still a few people with their necks bent and looking stupidly in the direction of the medicine twist. Shang Kexi
He slapped her down with joy and said, "What are you doing? Pull your head back and block your ears with your hands."
A few foolish and bold people secretly pouted, "What's so great? They've seen cannonballs before, how can this thing be more powerful than cannonballs? There are always some people who don't believe in evil, so they wait excitedly with their eyes wide open."
Boom, there was a red light on the top of the mountain, and half of the sky was bright with fire. The violent vibrations were like earthquakes, and waves of heat swept over. Even from a distance of more than ten feet, you can still feel the distinctive scorching heat.
.A large piece of the entire mountaintop was missing. Although the bombs after the explosion were scattered everywhere, several soldiers of the Northern Shanxi Army were unlucky enough to be hit by pebbles. One of them was hit on the head and died on the spot. When the thick smoke
Disperse, walk over and look at the road going down the mountain. There are already piles of stones, leaving no gaps.
A few brave soldiers of the Northern Shanxi Army stood there stupidly. Someone called their names loudly, but there was no response. It turned out that there was a buzzing in their ears and they couldn't hear anything.
Darling, this thing is really scary. It's much stronger than a cannonball. If it were thrown into a crowd, how many people would be killed? Unfortunately, this thing is too scarce, so you can't just have it if you want.
Fires shot up into the sky in the south of Xiaoyuefeng Pass, accompanied by a loud explosion. With the sound, the ground shook, and even the people in Xiaoyuefeng Dazhai felt their feet trembling. Gao Yingxiang walked out of the tent.
, asked anxiously, "What happened just now?"
"I don't know if I'll get back to King Chuang!"
Gao Yingxiang was too lazy to ask any more questions, and led his soldiers out of Dazhai in person, all the way to Xiaoyuefeng Pass. Looking down from the height of Xiaoyuefeng Pass, with just one glance, Gao Yingxiang almost fell into the mountain stream. He saw
The mountain road that was originally relatively wide turned out to have a stone mountain, which was tightly blocked. Cold sweat broke out on my forehead, and the surprise in my heart was beyond description in words. I thought that just by holding the Xiaoyuefeng Pass, I would be able to
It was foolproof, but unexpectedly, someone blocked the way out. How did those people do it?
The back road was blocked, and the consequence was that the food and baggage could not be brought up. Gao Yingxiang finally understood the pain of Wang Zhongyang being trapped in Xiaoyue Peak. When they came, the soldiers only brought food for two days. If they did not capture Ziwu Valley within two days, what would happen
It’s unimaginable.
Gao Yingxiang decided to launch an attack as soon as possible. He would start fighting as soon as Chen time arrived. He had to capture the Fairy Terrace before he ran out of food. He didn't know if Liu Zongmin could cooperate well.
The noise in the south of Xiaoyuefeng Pass was so loud that Liu Zongmin, who was walking on the mountain road three miles away, was also stunned. Looking over from where he was, he saw a burst of fire rising from the northeastern mountainside, and the rumbling sound was deafening.
, the formation was like an earthquake, with slight shaking in many places and rocks sliding down.
Liu Zongmin's face became very complicated. It was probably not a good thing to have such a big movement south of the Xiaoyuefeng Pass. Without thinking too much, he called over a few of his men and ordered in a hurry, "You guys, go over there and take a look.
Look what happened!"
Before he figured out what was going on, Liu Zongmin did not dare to act rashly. He immediately stopped his troops and put them on alert. For some reason, Liu Zongmin felt a deep uneasiness in his heart. It felt like he was stepping into a
They were stuck in the quagmire and could not pull out even if they tried. Liu Zongmin stationed his troops and stood still, which was considered the safest way to deal with it. Unfortunately, he faced the Northern Shanxi Army this time.
Gao Yingxiang is not a mediocre person. He can take the initiative in everything. He really has to thank Wang Zhongyang and Cao Sheng. If it were not for Wang Zhongyang, Gao Yingxiang might have launched a surprise attack when Ziwu Valley's troops were empty. Likewise, if it were not for Cao Sheng, the cautious Gao Yingxiang would also
He would not make up his mind to rush everyone to the Ziwu Valley for a decisive battle. However, not everything could be predicted in advance. At least Tie Mo did not expect that Gao Yingxiang would let Liu Zongmin be responsible for the main attack on the mountain road.
Although I am not ashamed of Liu Zongmin's character, I have to admit that Liu Zongmin is still somewhat capable. In terms of marching and fighting, this person also has many merits. Since Shang Kexi led the troops to bomb the mountain to block the retreat of the Xiaoyue Peak rogue soldiers, Tie Mo
He waited for the rogue soldiers on the Ziwu Valley Mountain Road to walk into the ambush, and then wiped out all the enemies in front of them. But not long after waiting, Liu Zongmin heard the report from the scouting horse, and Liu Zongmin actually stopped the soldiers and horses two miles south of the narrow road.
Liu Zongmin's men did not move forward, which put Tie Mo in a difficult position. After pondering for a long time, he said to Li Yangchun, "General Li, lead your troops to defeat Liu Zongmin's troops first. Looking at the current situation, if you want to defeat them all,
Annihilation is almost impossible."
"Here" Li Yangchun was also very depressed. If Liu Zongmin led his people two miles further, he would be able to catch a turtle in a jar. Unfortunately, Liu Zongmin was uncharacteristically cautious and became extremely cautious, which was completely different from his previous style. According to common sense, the army and horses in the middle route
Even if he wasn't walking in front of the flank, he should at least be moving forward hand in hand, but Liu Zongmin was delayed three miles behind. It must be said that Liu Zongmin's caution was very useful. If he hadn't been three miles behind, he would not have been able to move in time when something unexpected happened south of Xiaoyuefeng Pass.
reacted.
At three o'clock in the morning, at the southern entrance of the Ziwu Valley Mountain Road, Liu Zongmin was frowning. The scout horse he sent earlier had already ran back, "Liu Tou, it's not good. The officers and soldiers did not know what kind of magic they used, and a place collapsed."
Huge boulders rolled down from the top of the mountain, blocking the mountain road leading from Xiaoyue Peak to the bottom of the mountain. Several brothers even tried to climb over the pile of rocks, but officers and soldiers beat several of them to death on the spot."
Listening to the spies' words, Liu Zongmin's heart skipped a beat. He was really afraid of what would happen. Last time, the Northern Shanxi Army blocked the pass of Xiaoyuefeng Mountain, leaving tens of thousands of troops unable to use it. Now they are trying the same trick again. This time it is even more ruthless, and it will blow them up.
At the top of the mountain, the way back is cut off. Without the way back, there is no way out. In this case, for example, it will be a last-ditch battle, or it will break out, or it will be destroyed. There is only one way in front of King Chuang, and that is to storm Fairy Terrace and Heishui Valley.
, unable to break out of Ziwu Valley within five days, and the army will be defeated due to lack of morale.
Liu Zongmin frowned and tried to calm down. He thought to himself that since Chuang Wang's side had been cut off, it was estimated that the Northern Shanxi Army would not attack Chuang Wang for a while, so they would definitely use their men to attack him first.
He, Liu Zongmin, was destroyed. Humph, how could he, Liu Zongmin, be such a stupid man like Wang Zhongyang? If he wanted to destroy him, Liu Zongmin, he had to ask whether he would agree to the sword in his hand.
"Dai Yiqing, order two thousand soldiers and horses, march forward one mile, hide the soldiers and horses on both sides of the mountain road, wait for the opponent to touch them, do not expose them, wait for the thieves to pass by, and cover them from behind!"
"Here!" Dai Yiqing took the order and left, and then Liu Zongmin made corresponding arrangements. He knew that the Northern Shanxi Army would definitely send people to attack him. Instead of doing this, why not put down his pockets and wait for the Northern Shanxi Army to arrive?
Liu Zongmin set up a pocket formation late at night, and Li Yangchun also led his troops towards Liu Zongmin quickly. Due to the rugged mountain road, he could not ride a horse, and even Li Yangchun could only use two legs. After arriving at Wuzhangyuan in the south, Li Yangchun
Suddenly he raised his hand to signal his troops to stop. Wuzhang Abyss is not a real abyss, but a mountain road about five feet wide. This mountain road is about one mile in length, with mostly gentle slopes of shrubs on both sides.
Stepping to a bush on the side, Li Yangchun lowered his head and inspected it. He saw some broken branches in the bush, which looked like they had just been broken. There were many traces of people stepping on the grass. Seeing this,
Li Yangchun curled his lips and sneered. What a Liu Zongmin, he still loves to play this trick after so many years. If everyone hadn't been old acquaintances, he might have really upset Liu Zongmin.
He summoned several generals and whispered some instructions. The generals stepped back and gave the order. All the soldiers of the Northern Shanxi Army took off their muskets, loaded bullets, and shot at the dark gentle slopes on both sides.
, several rounds of rain of bullets were fired, and as expected, there was a scream, and many rogue soldiers rushed out of the bushes screaming. Dai Yiqing's face turned green and white. He didn't know where he had exposed his flaw, and he actually let
The Northern Shanxi Army easily found out. With a hail of bullets and rain, Dai Yiqing's men were unprepared and fell into chaos. At this time, how could they remember the ambush of the Northern Shanxi Army? They all just hated their parents for having two children.
He had two legs, abandoned his helmet and armor and ran towards the south.
Li Yangchun drew out his saber and raised his voice, "Brothers, follow me to catch up and beat these useless guys out."
Originally, the rogue soldiers were supposed to cover up and kill them from behind, but in the end, the soldiers of the Northern Shanxi Army chased and beat the rogue soldiers. Even though Liu Zongmin had thought of many response plans before, he never expected this situation, and finally organized an ambush formation.
, was rushed to pieces by our own rebel soldiers, and the soldiers of the Northern Shanxi Army naturally would not let go of this good opportunity. They took advantage of the chaos to occupy favorable terrain, and the musketeers covered them, while the others attacked the rogue soldiers with all their strength.
Li Yangchun came here and immediately stared at Liu Zongmin. Speaking of which, the two were also old acquaintances. When acquaintances met, they had complicated emotions.
Liu Zongmin could feel the coldness in Li Yangchun's eyes. Back then, he followed Li Zicheng and secretly tricked Li Yangchun more than once or twice. In the past, Li Yangchun did not dare to say anything because of Li Zicheng's face and his inferior strength. But now Li Yangchun has joined the army.
, his subordinates are all soldiers of the Northern Shanxi Army who are like wolves and tigers. How can he not take revenge?
Nearly ten thousand troops from both sides fought in chaos on the narrow Ziwu Valley mountain road. The rogue soldiers were panicked and their morale was low. After all, they were not comparable to the tigers descending from the mountain like the Northern Shanxi Army. The fierce battle was in full swing. After half an hour, many rogue soldiers chose to surrender.
The resistance became weaker and weaker, and those who did not surrender also chose to flee south. Liu Zongmin was also panicking, because Li Yangchun had already killed the people outside and rushed towards him.
"Liu Zongmin, you and I haven't seen each other for a long time, why are you hiding from Li?" Li Yangchun shouted, sneered at the corner of his mouth, and the knife in his hand was dripping with bright red blood. At this time, he looked like a murderous mad dog, looking at Liu Zongmin.
There was also a hint of heat in his eyes.
Liu Zongmin was shocked and quickly asked his soldiers to step forward to block him. Although he was brave, he had no confidence at all in a fight with Li Yangchun. At that time, there were several powerful generals in the rebel army, such as Zhang Dashou, Liu Guoneng, and the Four Heavenly Kings Li Yangchun.
These people are known to be good at fighting, and the nickname of the Four Heavenly Kings is not for nothing. Liu Zongmin misses Lu Weiliang a little now. If Lu Weiliang were here, he might be able to think of some ways to restrain Li Yangchun.
"Li Yangchun, if you seek refuge with the Living King of Hell, you will die by the sword of the rebel army sooner or later. If you can wake up and remember our old friendship, Liu can give advice to King Chuang and keep you safe!"
From a distance, Liu Zongmin shouted loudly. Li Yangchun was so angry that he spat on the ground and shouted with a knife, "Liu, if you have the ability, don't use your words. Our men will see the truth!"
As he spoke, Li Yangchun slashed several Liu Zongmin's soldiers with his sword, and quickened his pace. When he was a few feet away, he stepped on the protruding stone on the side and jumped up suddenly. Liu Zongmin obviously did not expect that Li Yangchun's kung fu was so good.
Surprisingly, it was a little too late to raise his sword to meet him. The two swords struck each other, and the powerful force hit Liu Zongmin's waist knife down, and his shoulder was immediately cut open.
Liu Zongmin was so anxious that he dropped his sword, turned around and kicked him back. Taking advantage of Li Yangchun's opportunity to hide, he rushed forward with a few arrows. At this time, all the soldiers surrounded him and kept shouting, "Protect Liu."
Leader!"
Li Yangchun's eyes widened with anger, and he was about to kill Liu Zongmin. Unexpectedly, he let him run away. There were many soldiers blocking him around. For a while, Li Yangchun couldn't get away. He was waiting to kill him to clear a way, but
Liu Zongmin can no longer be found.
At the end of the ugly period, Liu Zongmin ran away for more than half an hour and finally escaped the crisis. This was also due to Li Yangchun's lack of pursuit. Liu Zongmin was still frightened after saving his life. Fortunately, he met Li Yangchun today. This person had the overall situation in mind and did not
If it were Shang Kexi or Hua Xiaorong who were desperately chasing them, they would most likely be buried here.
Liu Zongmin was defeated and fled south, leaving behind thousands of corpses and more than 2,000 surrendered soldiers. After cleaning the battlefield and escorting the surrendered soldiers, Li Yangchun led the people to detour south to the Xiaoyuefeng Pass. He joined forces with Shang Kexi.
After a while, Li Yangchun recounted what had just happened, causing Shang Kexi to make a lot of noise, and scolded him in a loud voice, "Brother Li, you are really good at letting that good-for-nothing Liu Zongmin escape."
"Brother Shang, do you think Li doesn't want to kill Liu Zongmin? But the most important thing now is to guard the mountain road and prevent the rogue army from retreating. Can you and I take the responsibility for missing the important task of supervising the division?"
Li Yangchun wouldn't look down on Shang Kexi either. He couldn't speak politely to someone like Shang Kexi. As expected, Shang Kexi was speechless by Li Yangchun's few words. He could only change the topic and said, "Supervisor
How's it going over there?"
"The supervisor is very good. General Zhou has brought the troops stationed at Tongguan and Qiliping to Ziwu Valley. With 20,000 people, it should not be a problem to resist the rogues for two or three days. The most important thing is our side. We must not
