On the bank of the Yangtze River, deep in the mountains.
The morning light is slightly dew, and the rising sun is rising in the east. The fiery red morning glow, like a thousand sharp swords, pierces the darkness of the night and shines golden light on the earth.
The vast mountains are covered with a golden coat, and under the rays of the rising sun, they appear even more heavy and ancient.
The mist that filled the mountains has gradually dissipated. Standing on the top of the mountain and looking down, all the movements in the valley can be seen.
In the valley, a team of thousands of people lined up in a long snake formation was quickly entering the ambush range. Although they tried their best to keep their voices down and not make any sound, the sound of the fine pebbles under their feet gathered together, and they could still be heard.
Extremely clear.
"Commander, all the enemies have entered the ambush range!" The ordering soldier gasped, ran up from below, knelt down on one knee, cupped his fists and said to Lu Heng.
Lu Heng, who was sitting on the bluestone with his clothes flowing in the wind. After hearing this, he glanced at the valley below calmly, nodded and said: "Send the signal, the general attack begins!"
"Got the order!"
The messenger clasped his fists in response, then stood up and jumped down the steps. Looking down, standing next to Lu Heng, the two archers who were waiting in formation nodded.
The two archers took off the strong bows on their backs, held the bow with one hand, and pulled the arrows and put them on the bowstrings with the other hand. They took a deep breath, put on the arrows, and drew the bows like a full moon.
Gaze at the sky and place your fingers lightly.
With a popping sound, the bowstring vibrated.
Two arrows burning with blazing flames shot high into the sky.
There was a bang, and when the arrow reached its highest point, the fireworks bloomed brilliantly.
"Kill!"
Almost at the same moment, the soldiers who were ambushing on both sides of the valley jumped out of their hiding places, raised their swords, pointed directly at the sky, and roared with murderous intent.
The soldiers at the front roared and pushed the rocks that had been prepared down the cliff with all their strength.
There was a rumble, the earth was trembling, and the mountains were trembling.
Countless boulders rolled down the hillside with great force, and quickly rolled down. The smoke, pebbles, and flying dust they brought up covered the sky and the sun for a while, and the sound was shocking.
At the bottom of the mountain, Liu Yuanyi's subordinates were stunned. Looking at the falling boulders that blocked the sky above their heads, their minds went blank for a moment. Before they had time to react, many people were crushed by the falling boulders.
, turned into a ball of meat sauce.
Blood splattered and broken arms flew everywhere. In just a few breaths, the valley became a hell on earth. The people in black who were smashed to death fell to the ground in a mess, and the small river that passed through the valley was dyed in the blink of an eye.
It became a river of blood.
Ah! Help, run away!
For a time, there were cries and wails from the bottom of the mountain.
The long snake formation at the foot of the mountain was cut off in an instant. The team of thousands of people turned into a complete mess. They held their heads and fled in all directions, crying and shouting.
However, before he could reach the foot of the mountain, he was killed by a dense rain of arrows and turned into a hedgehog covered with arrows.
The archers occupying a powerful position kept firing arrows. The arrows flew out, making a loud sound of breaking through the air, like raindrops, towards the densely packed crowd below.
Although the battle was going smoothly, Lu Heng, who was standing at the top and watching the battle, was not in a hurry to give the order for the infantry to charge.
He just watched everything indifferently, watching the men in black rushing towards the hillside, being shot and killed by the archers on the hillside. His expression was calm, as if he were normal.
"Commander, do you want to give an order for the infantry to charge?" On the side, the ordering soldiers were a little unable to hold back. Looking at the raging battle below, they gritted their fists and palms and asked Lu Heng to fight.
On the side, Wu Ningyuan, who had been silent all this time, did not interrupt after hearing the clearly overreaching words of the messenger. Instead, he watched with interest Lu Heng, who was dispatching and directing all the way, to see how he would react.
.
As a general, you must seize the right time, place, and people, and both are indispensable. Moreover, you must have a clear judgment on the situation on the battlefield, and you must not miss the best opportunity just because of a sudden whim. Of course, you must not be let down by a temporary whim.
The victory went to his head.
After all, this was Lu Heng's first time commanding a battle. Wu Ningyuan looked at him expectantly, waiting for his reaction.
However, after listening to the words of the messenger, Lu Heng just smiled faintly, turned around, looked at him, and asked with a smile: "What's the matter? Seeing your brothers making great achievements, you also want to give it a try?"
Seeing through the military advisor's thoughts, the orderly soldier smiled, scratched his head in embarrassment, nodded and said: "Hey, military advisor, hey!"
Seeing him in such embarrassment, how could Lu Heng not know what he was thinking. However, a battlefield is a battlefield. Everything can happen on the battlefield.
Take the current situation as an example, although the opponent is in a panic, it is still a team of more than a thousand people. As long as they come to their senses, they will definitely not run away in such a hurry like now. Moreover, with Liu Yuanyi's personality as a desperate gambler,
He is not someone who can be easily captured.
The real fun is yet to come.
Lu Heng glanced at the messenger, shook his head with a smile and said, "Don't worry, the arrows we brought today are enough for the archers to shoot. Just wait patiently, we are not in a hurry, they are the ones who are!"
Lu Heng pointed downwards at the fleeing crowd in the valley where the wails continued, and said to the messenger with a smile.
After saying this, Lu Heng turned around and said to Wu Ningyuan, who was stroking his beard and admiring his face, "How is it, Mr. Ning Yuan? What do you think?"
Wu Ningyuan, who was smiling, glared at him angrily after hearing this, rolled his eyes and said, "You kid, are you trying to make fun of me? Why are you asking me for what you said after you said everything yourself?
"
Seeing Wu Ningyuan's angry look, Lu Heng was stunned for a moment, then raised his head and laughed.
Along the way, this old man took advantage of him by talking like a prospective father-in-law and talking like a kid. Now, he was finally able to recover some interest. Seeing this old man frustrated, Lu Heng finally felt a little relieved.
"Don't be so proud, hehe, don't forget. Liu Qingqing is my goddaughter now. Hehe, from now on, if you have any ideas, just go ahead and do it without my consent. Haha!" Wu Ningyuan!
As the man matured, he rolled his eyes and suddenly his eyes lit up. He groped his chin and smiled sinisterly at Lu Heng with a sly smile on his face.
The smile on Lu Heng's face suddenly froze, and he looked at the old man dumbfounded. He saw that this old guy shamelessly considered himself his father-in-law, and he seemed quite proud of himself.
After Lu Heng and him looked at each other for a moment, they finally couldn't resist the super shameless temper that the other party had honed. He shook his head helplessly and smiled, secretly slandering him in his heart. He was so cunning.
At the foot of the mountain, corpses littered the fields and blood flowed into rivers.
Looking up, everywhere he looked, there were men in black scurrying about with their heads in their hands, as well as the appetizing smell of blood on the ground, and broken arms everywhere.
Under the huge stone, the man in black was crushed, with blood and internal organs flowing all over the ground.
The blood all over the ground merged into a blood river and merged into the gurgling stream. In the blink of an eye, it was like a clear stream, dyed blood red.
Liu Yuanyi hid in the concave and convex part of the mountain wall, looking at everything in front of him with a pale face, his heart was like a huge wave, and he was frightened.
"How could this happen? How could this happen?" Liu Yuanyi muttered in a daze, his whole body shaking violently.
"Commissioner, what should I do?" On the side, Qin Suimen, whose face also changed drastically, looked at the brothers who were constantly being killed and injured, and shouted anxiously.
"Yes, yes. What should I do?" Liu Yuanyi licked his dry lips, looked at the miserable situation in front of him in shock and uncertainty, like a hell on earth, touched the cold sweat on his head, and said to himself.
My heart was on fire, but I was greatly disappointed when I saw Liu Yuanwai looking like he had no idea. It turned out that when he escaped from the Liu Mansion, this person still had some courage. However, he didn't expect that he would actually be on the battlefield.
It turned out to be such a waste.
After giving him a disappointed look, the follower turned his attention to the burly man wearing a black hood who had been following Liu Yuanyi.
This man had been living in the Purple Mountain, waiting for Liu Yuanyi. Moreover, in today's team, there are 500 strong warriors who are his men. These people are extremely tough and have great combat experience.
It's rich. However, this group of people, like him, were cold along the way. Except for chatting with the fellow tribesmen around them, their voices were deafening. However, they never said a word to themselves.
Moreover, this person's accent is very weird. I have been with Zongheng Jianghu for many years, but I just have a vague feeling in my heart that this accent does not sound like that of the Central Plains. It seems like it comes from the north.
Seeing Yuan Liu's respectful attitude toward this person along the way, his followers also knew that this person's status was not low. Since his status was not low, he should also be capable.
The follower took a look at Liu Yuanyi, who was standing aside in shock. After sighing, he cupped his fists and said to the burly warrior wearing sheepskin and a black cloth on his head: "My lord! Look!"
This burly warrior, following his compatriots beside him, pointed to his companions outside who were stoned to death and shot through their bodies with arrows, his tone full of disdain.
When he heard someone talking to him, the warrior turned his head, his eyes flashing with the turbid light of a wild beast. He looked at Liu Yuanyi's personal entourage who lowered his head and clasped his fists in front of him. He snorted and said disdainfully: "You Han people are really a bunch of people."
You're just a waste. Just a few stones and you're in a mess. Look at those guys running around with their heads in their arms. They're just like sheep being chased by wolves on our grasslands. Haha!"
The follower's face froze. He raised his head and took a look at this guy who had a mouth full of sand and spoke with arrogance. He was shocked in his heart.
These people are indeed from the grassland. Could it be that they are...
Qin Sui was in a panic, but didn't know what to do.
If they are really those people, then he and his brothers have betrayed their ancestors and collaborated with the enemy and the country.
Damn you, Liu Yuanyi, for letting your brothers do such immoral things.
The relative cursed Liu Yuanyi secretly in his heart, but he really didn't have the courage to refute the words of the burly man in front of him. He just heard the man's ridicule to the brothers who died tragically outside, and forced a smile on his face, nodding and bowing.
Laughed.
After enough ridicule, the burly man took off the wine bag from his waist. After taking a sip of wine, he said to him with a mouth full of alcohol: "You are such a stupid pig. You didn't see our warriors arrive at the mountain at the first time."
Do you want to hide in the depression under your feet? Do you even need to ask?"
The big man glanced at him with disdain in his eyes and snorted.
"That's right, send the order, let the brothers gather at the bottom of the cliff quickly, the other party's rocks and part-timers can't hit here!" The follower was stunned for a moment, and finally reflected. He grabbed the brother beside him and lay down
shouted loudly into the other party's ear.
The green forest bandit beside him nodded hurriedly, leaned out, and shouted loudly to the brothers who were scurrying around like headless flies outside: "Hide, damn, go back to the mountain to hide! If you don't want to die, come back quickly!"
"
Hearing the ear-splitting roar, the men in black who were fleeing suddenly came back to their senses. They stood for a moment, identified the direction, hurriedly held their heads and rushed down the mountain.
While running down the mountain, there were still many men in black who were hit by flying arrows. They screamed and fell to the ground. However, their hands were still in the air, waving, signaling to their companions to come to the rescue.
However, how could a companion who had just escaped from danger and saved his life be willing to fall into a trap and save him?
Everyone was just leaning against the mountain wall in shock, watching helplessly as their companions who fell to the ground and screamed miserably were shot through by arrows that flew later and pinned to the ground.
It seemed that the miserable shouts outside were too disturbing. After a cold wind with a strong smell of blood blew, Liu Yuanyi, who had been looking stupid, suddenly shivered and finally came back to his senses.
.
"How's it going? How many people died?" Liu Yuanyi, who came back to his senses, looked at the dead and injured men in black outside with a gloomy face, turned around and asked the person beside him.
"At least three hundred. The rest, many of them were seriously injured! Oh, what a fucking evil. Where did these damn soldiers come from!" The personal attendant did not notice Liu Yuanyi.
Weird, after replying with a sad look on his face, he couldn't help the anger in his heart, punched the stone, and cursed through gritted teeth.
However, after saying this, he suddenly turned his head, looked at Liu Yuanyi with a clear expression in surprise, and exclaimed: "You!"
After Liu Yuanyi glanced at him, he nodded. After that, Liu Yuanyi raised his head and looked upward. After seeing the ambush all over the mountain, he lowered his head with a gloomy face and thought about countermeasures.
"Executive member, what should we do?" Beside him, Qin followed the door and asked eagerly.
The question was not answered, so he turned around and saw Liu Yuanyi lowering her head deeply, as if thinking about something. However, the muscles on her face were twitching, and her expression was extremely terrifying.
After a while, Liu Yuanyi raised his head and squinted his eyes to see what was happening on the hillside opposite.
After seeing a touch of light blue at the top of the mountain, Liu Yuan's eyes shrank and his body began to tremble uncontrollably.
It's him, it's him!
Although he couldn't see the person's face clearly, Liu Yuanyi was deeply convinced that this person was the vicious-hearted scholar.
I really didn't expect that this wise old man would fall into his hands. And it happened twice in a row.
Liu Yuanyi looked like a madman, looking at the scholar standing under the tree on the top of the mountain, his green shirt flowing in the wind, laughing crazily.
"Commander, please think of a way. If this continues, without the enemy's infantry charging, we will be trapped here alive!" the attendant asked anxiously.
Liu Yuanyi stared at the man in green shirt on the top of the mountain with a grim smile. A cruel smile appeared on his face. He smiled sinisterly and said: "Gather five hundred people, rush up the mountain, and kill the scholar. At the same time, attract
The enemy's main force returned to defense. I waited for the east to attack west, hit the remaining superior troops, and charged towards the pass. As long as the brother responsible for charging up the mountain kills the scholar, the opponent's formation will be in chaos. When the time comes, it will be me.
It’s time to wait for the best time to escape! General Hu Zhuoer, what do you think?”
Hu Zhuoer, who was made a general by Liu Yuanyi, shook his head and said: "Mr. Liu, my opinion and yours are exactly the opposite. The scholar must be killed, but it is not a attack on the east but an attack on the east.
! In the words of you Han people, it means taking advantage of the situation!"
"General, what do you mean?" Liu Yuan was stunned for a moment, his expression suddenly became extremely surprised, and he asked in a trembling voice.
"Yes, this centurion will personally lead my five hundred prairie warriors to charge the opponent's camp. The rest of you will be responsible for conducting a feint attack on the defenders at the pass. When the time comes, we will work together to break the opponent's encirclement! Yes.
Come on, Mr. Liu, come with us!"
Hu Zhuoer loudly talked about his troop formation. In the end, after thinking for a while, he turned his head and winked at Liu Yuanyi. His expression made it clear that both of them understood the truth.
Abandoning the car to save the handsome man?
Of course Liu Yuanyi knew Hu Zhuoer's plan. He just wanted to prepare for their attack on the camp at the expense of other green forest bandits.
Moreover, Liu Yuanyi would not take it seriously to those reckless people. If you die, you will die, and if you die, you will save a penny.
After understanding the truth, Liu Yuanyi clasped his fists solemnly and said to Hu Zhuoer: "General, don't worry, I, Liu Yuanyi, will only follow the lead! I will obey your orders!"
