Gao Yingxiang looked at Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong: "What do you think?"
"There are few officers and soldiers, and it is close to Shaanxi. I think it can be robbed." Li Zicheng responded.
Zhang Xianzhong also thinks the same.
Seeing that the two subordinates were in agreement, Gao Yingxiang nodded and said: "These horses are of great significance to our rebel army. If they can be robbed and trained, they will have the capital to deal with the officers and cavalry. I am determined to lead the people to rob them myself!"
These words surprised the two subordinates, and Li Zicheng hurriedly said: "King Chuang, please be careful. We will seize some war horses. Why bother with King Chuang coming in person? Li Zicheng is willing to go on behalf of King Chuang."
Gao Yingxiang shook his head and acted very stubbornly: "Our army has been fighting fiercely for a long time, and the soldiers are very tired. I have captured the horses of officers and soldiers in the past, and I am the most experienced. If I had not gone there in person this time, I would never have succeeded."
Brothers, there is no need to persuade me anymore. You gather all the horses in the army for me to use. I will take 300 horsemen to seize them. The trip will only take a few days."
Seeing that Gao Yingxiang had decided, Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong no longer objected, but repeatedly told King Chuang to be careful in what he did, and to return to the camp immediately if something went wrong.
"Brother, how's it going?"
As soon as he left the camp, his subordinate Liu Zongmin had been waiting impatiently. When he saw Li Zicheng coming out, he hurriedly stepped forward and asked.
"Let's talk about it back to our own camp." Li Zicheng didn't say much and went back to his base camp. Then he shook his head and said, "Zhang Xianzhong dug up the ancestral grave of Chongzhen last time and killed so many high-ranking officials, which made him famous. King Chuang is afraid that
He threatened his reputation, so this time he actually wanted to go out and rob the war horses in person. If he succeeded, it would be a good story about robbing the camp alone, but..."
Li Zicheng sneered: "How can there be any reason for the coach to personally go out for a mere five hundred horses? What if something goes wrong, what will happen to these hundreds of thousands of brothers? If it were me, I could just send one brother. Hey, King Chuang
We fought more than ten battles in a row, and although we killed many officers and soldiers, we also suffered considerable losses. King Chuang became a little anxious."
"Then eldest brother won't advise Chuang Wang?" Liu Zongmin was a little puzzled.
"Persuasion? With King Chuang's character, is persuasion useful?" Li Zicheng's eyes were cloudy and uncertain: "Forget it, there is no danger if three hundred cavalry go to fight thirty people. Since King Chuang loves to show off so much, then let him do whatever he wants.
Go. It’s just that King Chuang has taken away all the three hundred cavalry. We have no mobile power in the rebel army. I just hope that the officers and soldiers will not attack again during this period."
Although Li Zicheng was dissatisfied with Gao Yingxiang's personal robbery of the cavalry, he did not think it was very dangerous. However, these bandit leaders never expected that a Ming army general who did things unexpectedly had already opened a big net and was waiting for them.
...
...
Shuilonggou.
Ding Yunyi looked a little anxious. He stood at a high place and watched for a while, and frowned for a while. What he was worried about was not whether the bandits would come, but how Xiaotu was doing now.
He had a sudden idea to use 500 war horses as bait to deceive the bandits, and then destroy them in one fell swoop. However, he never expected that Xiaotu would volunteer to take on such an important task.
Taking risks, some are too risky...
"General, there is a group of cavalry coming towards Zhuilonggou." Huangfu Yunjie galloped over.
Ding Yunyi immediately woke up from his meditation: "How many people?"
"It looks like two to three hundred people."
"Okay!" Ding Yunyi cheered up: "Huangfu Yunjie, lead an ambush with twenty people. Once the bandits enter, rush out immediately. Stop the rear group and only let in a maximum of one hundred people."
"yes!"
"Everyone else, please follow me. Brothers, although we are small in number, the mob of bandits is nothing to worry about. Thirty cavalry are enough to defeat a hundred people. You are all the invincible Guan Ning cavalry in the world. You can kill even the golden bandits."
Okay, are you afraid of just a hundred bandits?"
Those Guan Ning cavalry laughed loudly: "Shen Rong, we have killed Jin Lu before, but we have never killed rogue bandits. Today we are willing to fight with Shen Rong and let our swords taste the blood of rogue bandits!"
"Okay!" Ding Yunyi said proudly: "My Ding Yunyi's war horses dare to rob these rogue bandits who are not afraid of killing. With this battle, I will make the rogue bandits detour when they see my flag from now on!"
The rogue bandits were really wronged. How did they know that these war horses belonged to Ding Yunyi of Yingzhou during the bloody battle in Xinyang?
And Ding Yunyi didn't know that he just wanted to use the opportunity of killing the bandits to firmly imprint his name in the hearts of those bandits, but by chance, a big fish swam into his circle...
..
...
"Ahead is Shuilonggou!" Gao Yingxiang pointed forward: "Brothers, please work hard to ambush the officers and soldiers before they arrive and catch them off guard!"
The rogues let out excited shouts.
Gao Yingxiang turned around and saw Xiaotu riding on a mule. He couldn't help but smile and said: "Xiaotu, you have made great achievements this time, and I will definitely reward you. The war is dangerous, so don't go with us."
But we are waiting here. After I kill the officers and soldiers, I will take you back to the camp with me. From now on, you will be my adopted daughter, and you will no longer have to worry about food and clothing!"
"Thank you, King Chuang!" Xiaotu said, but his heart was filled with curses and joy.
I have a brother, and my brother is an upright officer. Why would I want you, a bandit, to be my adoptive father? But while Xiao Tu was thinking about how to escape, Gao Yingxiang presented this opportunity to Xiao Tu.
"Brothers, rush to Shuilonggou!" Gao Yingxiang pulled out his sword, shouted, and ran out first.
The three hundred riders were all in high spirits, and they followed Gao Yingxiang and galloped towards Shuilong Valley. When they saw Shuilong Valley, a large section of the road in was very difficult to pass. Only two or three riders could pass through side by side, and the team gradually became smaller.
Come on.
As soon as the hundred cavalry led by Gao Yingxiang entered, suddenly countless shouts came from both sides, and twenty cavalry had already rushed out.
Huangfu Yunjie took the lead and roared angrily: "Do you recognize the bloody Tiger Guards of Yingzhou? Today I will avenge those brothers who died!"
The rogue bandits suddenly saw that they were in ambush and were shocked. When they heard that it was the Tiger Guards from Yingzhou who had suffered a lot of blood, everyone was even more panicked. The word "Hu Ben Guards" was passed down to ten people and hundreds of people, and it had already been left in the hearts of the bandits.
A terrifying impression that will never be forgotten for the rest of my life. Suddenly I saw the Tiger Guards appearing here. It turned out that the battle had not started yet and the people were already in chaos.
Although the opponent has few cavalry, God knows how many officers and soldiers are ambushing nearby?
"kill!"
Huangfu Yunjie roared loudly, and the twenty cavalrymen also shouted in unison. Some of the rear bandits had quick thoughts, and actually turned their horses and ran away. As a result, the remaining people were in chaos.
In the name of oneself, he can do this and look at the entire Ming Dynasty. I am afraid that only Hu Benwei can do this.
Twenty cavalrymen rushed out, but the bandits had no fighting spirit. Huangfu Yunjie grabbed one of the bandits alive from his horse, threw it to the ground, and asked sternly: "Who is leading the group?"
"Gao...King Gao Chuang..."
"Who?" Huangfu Yunjie almost thought he heard wrongly.
"King Chuang...Gao Yingxiang..."
Huangfu Yunjie was shocked. Then he was so happy that he no longer cared about the bandit on the ground. He turned his horse's head and galloped away into the Shuilong Valley...
At this time, in the Shuilong Valley, the thirty cavalrymen led by Ding Yunyi also rushed out from left to right.
Gao Yingxiang was shocked when he saw that he was suddenly ambushed. However, he felt relieved when he saw that there were few people on the other side. Just as he was about to order his men to break out, he suddenly heard an officer and general from the opposite side yelling:
"Hu Ben Guard Ding Yunyi is here!"
This roar was like thunder, exploding above the heads of Gao Yingxiang and the bandits.
Tiger Guard——Ding Yunyi!
This person's name is like a devil, accompanying the bandits all the time. They are afraid of seeing this person, or even hearing this name.
Gao Yingxiang saw that the morale of the soldiers on the left and right was shaken. He couldn't help but became furious: "Ding Yunyi, can he scare you into this? We are all rebels. Follow me and kill!"
"kill!"
Before Gao Yingxiang finished speaking, Ding Yunyi had already rushed to him amidst the sound of "kill".
The thirty Guan Ning cavalrymen all fought bloody battles with the Jinlu at the border all year round. They were all elite and strong. Once they entered the bandit army, they slashed and killed with loud roars that shook the sky.
"General!"
Ding Yunyi was getting ready to kill when he suddenly saw Huangfu Yunjie running towards him, shouting: "Gao Yingxiang is here!"
Ding Yunyi was startled when he heard Huangfu Yunjie shout again: "Gao Yingxiang, Gao Yingxiang is right here!"
"Gao Yingxiang?" Ding Yunyi suddenly laughed loudly: "Okay, Gao Yingxiang! How dare you come to seize my Ding Yunyi's horse? Today is your day of death!"
His voice was like a bell, and every word reached Gao Yingxiang's ears. The face of this rebel who commanded hundreds of thousands of bandits changed drastically. Looking at the subordinates around him, panic showed on everyone's face.
Ding Yunyi saw a man who looked like a general being protected in the middle of the bandits. He expected that he must be Gao Yingxiang. He rushed to the sky and stretched out his Qianjunshan in his hand: "Gao Yingxiang, why don't you dismount and tie your hands!"
Horses galloping across the battlefield, thousands of troops sweeping across like a strong wind, wherever Ding Yunyi goes, no one dares to stop him.
Ding Yunyi has thirty cavalry and Gao Yingxiang has one hundred cavalry. However, the current situation is as if there are thousands of troops and horses.
The two bandit leaders saw Ding Yunyi charging straight towards King Chuang, and they bravely faced him. Ding Yunyi rushed over quickly, and Qian Junyan whipped up a strong wind and slapped hard on the bandit on the left. They saw that the bandit remained silent.
, the whole person has been beaten to pieces by Qian Junshan.
Qian Junyan swung his backhand with his backhand, blood spattered wildly, and hit the rogue war horse on the right. The war horse let out a mournful cry and sent the rider on its back flying far away.
Although Gao Yingxiang and the gangsters around him have heard of Ding Yunyi's reputation for a long time, today is the first time they see it with their own eyes. This Ding Yunyi is really just like the legend. No, it is even more terrifying than the legend.
He was not fighting at all, it was simply a massacre! The people who died under his hand died in terrible conditions. And I heard that he also had a terrifying magic knife, which made his killings even more brutal!
Ding Yunyi rushed forward, suddenly reined in his horse, and said with a cold expression: "Gao Yingxiang, why don't you get off your horse and surrender? I'll spare your men's lives!"
Gao Yingxiang looked around and saw that more than a hundred of his cavalry had been killed or wounded in just a short time in front of the elite cavalry of the other party's officers and soldiers. The remaining people were afraid of Ding Yunyi's bravery and had lost all fighting spirit.
Gao Yingxiang knew that he would not be able to get out of trouble this time, so he let out a long sigh: "Ding Yunyi, maybe you can keep your word? Don't you hurt my brothers?"
"I only want you, Gao Yingxiang, and I won't care about the rest." Ding Yunyi said coldly.
Gao Yingxiang suddenly looked up to the sky and laughed: "That's all, I lost to you today, and I, Gao Yingxiang, have no injustice." After saying that, he threw away the weapons in his hands: "Brothers, don't fight."
"King Chuang, King Chuang, let's protect you and fight out together!"
Just as the voice sounded, I suddenly saw a dark thing flying towards me like lightning. The bandit who wanted to protect Gao Yingxiang had no time to make any preparations. He screamed in agony and was pierced by the lightning.
Thousands of troops!
The terrifying Qianjunzhao was pierced on his corpse.
Ding Yunyi slowly pulled out the dragon's tooth: "Who else wants to fight to the death for Gao Yingxiang?"
The power of a stick was so powerful that in an instant, no one dared to say a word.
Gao Yingxiang silently got off his horse and stood there, looking up to the sky.
"Tie this traitor to me!"
Gao Yingxiang, who was once arrogant and commanded hundreds of thousands of bandits, became a prisoner in this small Shuilong ditch.
Gao Yingxiang would never have thought that he would eventually lose his life just because he coveted five hundred war horses!
Ding Yunyi will definitely become the nemesis of the rogue bandits for the rest of his life!
At this time, the bandits outside Zhuilong Valley were already frightened, but suddenly they heard that "King Chuang" had been captured alive. They no longer had the will to fight, so they turned their horses and retreated into Shaanxi Province.
"elder brother!"
The high-spirited Ding Yunyi suddenly heard Xiaotu's voice and hurriedly looked outside, Xiaotu, it was Xiaotu who was back!
Ding Yunyi galloped towards the horse to see what was coming. With a twist of his waist, he pulled Xiaotu onto his horse and laughed: "Well done, Xiaotu, well done. You are the first to capture the rebel leader alive this time."
!”
Suddenly seeing a wound on Xiaotu's face, he hurriedly asked, but Xiaotu said nonchalantly: "Brother, it's okay. I was whipped a few times by that man named Li Zicheng."
Ding Yunyi's face was gloomy: "My sister, Ding Yunyi, can also beat him? Xiaotu, don't worry, I will capture Li Zicheng alive sooner or later. How many times he whips you, you will pay him back ten times!"
"Yes!" Xiaotu nodded vigorously.
Huangfu Yunjie came from behind: "General, we have captured more than thirty bandits. Since the general wants to bring Gao Niyingxiang to the capital, it will be inconvenient to take these thirty people with him."
Ding Yunyi immediately understood what his subordinates were thinking.
He glanced at Huangfu Yunjie, who silently nodded to him.
"Go." Ding Yunyi waved his hand with a sigh.
"Brother, what happened to Mr. Huangfu?" Xiao Tu asked curiously.
"Brother just did something dishonest."
Ding Yunyi rode his horse forward slowly and said in a low voice: "I promised someone, but I broke my promise. Xiaotu, in troubled times, you should do things in a hurry, but in peacetime, you can't do this."
Done."
Although Xiaotu didn't quite understand, he nodded in understanding.
