Chapter 778 What provokes you is anger


Chapter 778 What provoked you was anger

A Ming chose to run away. In this situation, the only option left was to run away.

After all, the situation is obvious, and it is simply... impossible to defeat.

Isn’t it normal to withdraw if you can’t fight?

Cahill also thought it was normal, and he was afraid that A Ming would abandon him in order to escape faster, so he quickly changed:

"Oh, Master A Ming did the right thing. We are a noble blood clan. How can we easily surrender our noble lives here... Oh oh oh oh!!!"

At the back, Cahill He screamed almost convulsively, and his body began to convulse.

Because A Ming was so violent and willing to do anything to support his body skills when he quickly extracted his blood for use in escaping.

Fortunately, A Ming did not fall directly into the enemy's siege. Fortunately, this was in the mountains and forests. Even better, this was a group of infantry, not a cavalry on the plains.

Although the running speed of this infantry seemed a bit alarming, A Ming finally managed to escape.

Of course, there are also reasons why the other party doesn't seem determined to capture him.

Beside a frozen stream, A Ming scratched the ice with his nails, pulled out the arrow and a throwing knife stuck in his back, threw them down, and then used The stream washes his wounds.

Cahill's face was pale and he was lying on the side. He had been squeezed dry, and his eyes were full of hopelessness.

"Cough..."

A Ming coughed and tried to restore some key positions on his body. The rest of the injuries could be postponed. The important thing was not to affect his movement.

He stood up and glanced back, but there were no pursuers behind him.

"I almost killed him." A Ming said to himself.

He almost died in his own hands, the commander of the front line of the Chu Kingdom on the opposite side.

Cahill, who had lost every drop, began to focus his eyes,

said extremely weakly:

"Thank you Lord A Ming for your... kindness."

This is not irony, Cahill did not have the courage;

If the level of the forbidden curse was higher and the scale was bigger, there would be more Draw a little blood, and even suck up Cahir without hesitation at the beginning, in exchange for the strongest blow;

Nian Yao,

should be dead.

However, there is nothing to regret. It was A Ming's own choice that he did not choose to do this at that time. Compared with being more sure of killing Nian Yao, he was more willing to keep his blood bag for a while and was reluctant to part with it.

The most important thing is that he does not know that there is a troop of soldiers hidden behind the hillside.

It is already absurd that he was digging graves to look for wine to drink.

Nian Yao ordered that no unauthorized actions be allowed and his subordinates actually enforced the prohibition. It is absurd among absurdities.

There are too many regrettable things in the world,

If you miss it,

you will miss it.

A Ming bent down and carried Cahir on his back again. The blood bag was temporarily useless and would have to be raised for a long time.

Cahill murmured:

"Wine wow..."

He was still feeling sorry for the many jars of peach blossom wine.

Yes,

If you don’t feel sorry for the wine, what else can you feel sorry for?

Do you feel sorry for Guo Dongpi and the others who were left behind and escaped without even looking at them?

……

"General, I haven't caught up with you. The opponent's movements are strange. He doesn't look like a human, but like a monster in disguise."

"Monster?"

Nian Yao shook his head.

"I have never seen such a powerful monster, haha."

Unlike the Yan people who only cultivate and breed wild beasts, the Chu people are more obsessed with domesticating monsters. Learn more.

"That's all, we can't delay on him. Get out of the mountain immediately. We worked hard to hide here, but we can't waste the opportunity like this.

Give the order,

Let everyone take it out and run away The posture of the mountain

makes the people of Yan look forward to it.

Look how fast our two legs can run! ”

"The general has an order, advance at full speed!"

"The general has an order, advance at full speed!"

The soldiers began to run fast, their running postures were exaggerated, and their skin color Their appearance is also very different from that of Chu people in the traditional sense. Chu people are actually the traditional faces of Xia people, but these people are obviously not.

In addition, they don’t have the hairstyle that Chu people value most. Many of them shave their heads.

This is not a Chu army. Strictly speaking, it is not a Chu army composed of serious Chu people, but soldiers and horses formed by a certain tribe in Shanyue.

The barren mountains and rivers of the Chu region were the last habitat of the Shanyue tribe. After the regent came to power, with the five princes leading Wutong County to submit to the court, and with the regent's series of policies, the relationship between the Chu people and the Shanyue tribe began to spread rapidly. A kind of passive or active integration is going on.

More and more warriors of the Shanyue tribe began to be organized by the court and entered the Chu army.

Gan Ren has done this before, and Marquis Zheng also saw the native soldiers recruited by Gan Ren. Those soldiers also walked as fast as flying, fought bravely, and did not care about their lives. Gan people also like to use local soldiers when they suppress local rebellions.

But on the battlefield of a real big country, the shortcomings of the native soldiers, such as lack of command and being too easy to take advantage of, will be fully exposed. When Zheng Houye first started his career, he relied on the native soldiers of the Qian Kingdom to kill a lot of people.

But it is obvious that the "Mountain Soldiers" formed by the Shanyue people under Nian Yao have been trained by Nian Yao himself, which is equivalent to making up for their shortcomings, and their advantages can be fully utilized. play out as much as possible.

In fact, the real area where the Yan and Chu people fought on sentry cavalry was in Shanggu County and along the Weihe River. This mountain range would appear to be much peaceful, because Lord Zheng personally walked through here, and the number of people was smaller, so he could come over. , but it is basically impossible for large-scale soldiers and horses to leave from here, because whether they are horses or mules, climbing mountains and wading rivers will be destroyed. At the same time, if a large army leaves from here, even if it does come out, it is impossible for the logistics and supplies to keep up.

Just like walking through the Tianduan Mountains into the snowfields, thirty thousand soldiers and horses almost exhausted the reserves of Shengle City at that time. At the same time, they could only carry out food storage on the way there, and wait until the army left the mountains and entered the snowfields. In the end, even if there were mountains of food in the rear, there would be no time to transport it out from here for relief.

There is a reason why Guo Dong's team was arranged here. Xu An was taking care of his brother and did not send him to the area with the highest mortality rate.

But who would have thought that

General Nian, who was jokingly called the "Nian Da Bastard" by the world, would lead less than three thousand infantrymen quietly over the mountains. Got out of here.

An organized army of soldiers and horses appeared. After losing the cover of the mountains and forests, it was impossible to be silent anymore.

A ranger and sentinel rider discovered them and quickly warned their superiors.

A school lieutenant stationed nearby personally led more than a hundred cavalry under his command to intercept him. The victory in foreign wars over the years has led to an increasing desire among the Yan army to underestimate the enemy. This Yan army captain The lieutenant may have wanted to stop the harassment and wait for reinforcements, but in his heart, he may also have the idea of ​​​​enlarging the results of the battle.

After all, my Lord Marquis once created a brilliant record of defeating a city with a hundred riders. The example is there!

Everyone has greed, but the problem is that he is facing Nian Yao, and the troops led by Nian Yao this time are obviously extraordinary.

In the end, the horse riding party was surrounded. Then, only a few knights were able to escape, and the school captain died on the spot.

For a moment, the rear shook.

The headquarters was stationed behind, and Gongsun Zhi, who was also asked by Pingxi Marquis to be responsible for the defense and vigilance of this mountain range, heard the news and personally led his troops out of the stronghold.

During this period, the delay was not long, only one night. However, when Gongsun Zhi led his army over and the other two groups of soldiers and horses under his command were also in place to form an encirclement, they discovered that the Chu army Jun seemed to have evaporated from the world, and he couldn't even catch a hair!

Gongsun Zhi felt cold,

Right now, there are only two possibilities.

First, the Chu army retreated back to the mountains;

But this is obviously impossible. How could they come out without suffering any big losses after working so hard over the mountains? Go back in despair under the premise?

Another possibility is...

They have already escaped from their encirclement in advance.

Gongsun Zhi gritted his back molars.

At this moment, what he was thinking about was not the consequences on the battlefield, but that he might suffer a loss because of his omissions in the layout.

This is the first time that the Marquis has gathered generals and mobilized troops since the establishment of the Marquis Mansion. It is very likely that a chicken will be killed.

"Come down, turn around, and order Cui Sheng to go north, and the rest of the troops to follow me to the west!"

I no longer care whether I am the chicken,

Gongsun Zhi knew clearly that

Now that the army is gathering on the front line, there are not no soldiers and horses in the rear, but they must be extremely lax.

The most important thing is,

that Chu army

ran so fast!

...

The fire,

has not been extinguished yet,

there are corpses all around.

Master Zheng, wearing armor and riding Pixiu, came to this military stronghold.

This military stronghold was originally a village, but due to several wars in Jin, especially in eastern Shanxi, a large number of people were exiled and plundered. Even though the Pingxi Marquis Mansion has absorbed the population in Fengxin City and regained prosperity in the past two years, many people in eastern Shanxi have Some places, such as this village, still have not recovered.

When preparing for war,

the transportation of food and grass materials for the army requires strongholds as support on the line. This village is on this line. On this basis, a military stronghold was established.

There are not many soldiers in the military camp, only about a hundred people, and they are all auxiliary soldiers, not regular soldiers. There are quite a few civilians stationed there, with seven or eight hundred people.

In addition, there is also a group of civilians who have just completed an escort mission. About 400 people are resting here, waiting for the next round of escort mission.

Now,

in the burned military stronghold,

their corpses are everywhere.

Zheng Houye turned over and got off Pixiu and glanced around.

Although most of the military stronghold was burned by the fire, it can still be seen that the defensive facilities of the military stronghold are actually very crude.

This is not so much a military camp as a post station;

Moreover,

The Chu people attacked at night.

Most of the civilians were asleep, and the outer checkpoints were wiped out by the Chu people. The Chu people were like magic soldiers descending from the sky, and entered here.

If there are fortifications to rely on, more than a thousand civilians can sustain it for a long time, but the problem is that there is no such thing.

Therefore, under night, what happened here was a one-sided massacre.

How could a ragtag group of civilians without systematic training be a prepared opponent for the elite Chu army, not to mention that the opponent's leader was still Nian Yao.

Zheng Houye raised his head slightly and took a deep breath.

The smell of coke in the air, along with the aroma of barbecue, can easily cause physical discomfort.

At the same time, the night I encountered when I was a civilian husband came to mind.

They are all civilian husbands, but the civilian husbands here are not as lucky as I was at that time.

At the same time, my side was indeed caught off guard, and did not rush out in time to clean up the battlefield like the princess did back then.

In the center of the military stronghold, there is a pole, which is usually used to hoist goods. At this time, a person is hanging on it. The man seems to be still alive, but his body is bloody.

Two skilled guards planned to climb up and take the man down.

Fan Li stepped forward, hugged the pole, squatted down, and exerted force, but the pole was forced by him. The ground was pulled out, and then slowly tilted.

The guards stepped forward and put the seriously injured man down.

Zheng Fan stepped forward and looked at the injured;

He was not wearing armor, his ears were cut off, and two words were carved on his face... Yan dog.

This soldier looks a bit familiar.

Zheng Houye could not remember who he was, even though he had personally given him the "gold-touching" captaincy.

But that was just out of Mr. Zheng's bad taste. Anyway, there were many miscellaneous captains in the Yan army, and he had also served as a merchant protection captain in the past.

But this man obviously knew Zheng Fan.

He opened his eyes, looked at Zheng Fan drowsily, and immediately opened his mouth and said:

"Hou... Mr. Hou..."

Zheng Fan squatted When he came down, he saw that he wanted to raise his head, so he stretched out his hand to support Guo Dong's neck, and placed his other hand gently on his chest.

"Master Hou...Nian...Nian Yao asked me..."

"He asked you to bring me a message, right? Say it."

Cliché drama;< br>
In the ruins of the battlefield,

leave one alive.

"He...he..."

"Don't worry, tell it like it is, and then go down and treat the injury."

"He said..."

“What did he say?”

“You... don’t deserve it.”

Lord Zheng was stunned for a moment,

then nodded,

said:

“I understand.”

“General, give it to the lord. I’m so embarrassed... General, please die.”

"Take him down and treat his injuries."

"Here!"

"Please give me death..."

Zheng Houye ignored Guo After Dong's words were taken away, Lord Zheng stood up.

Behind him, stood the blind man.

"How is the loss?"

"Not much."

Zheng Fan nodded.

“Before, there was actually a lot of grain and grass stored here, because the official road in front was not repaired, and it was easy to get blocked when it snowed, making the road difficult to walk, so it was easy to cause siltation here.

A while ago, when the siltation was at its worst, nearly ten thousand people were stranded here, as well as... a large amount of grain and grass that was originally going to be transported to Zhennanguan. ”

Marquis Zheng said:

"My eyes have been opened. In the past, I was the one who burned people's food routes and cut off their escape routes. It's better this time. I have been educated in the opposite direction."

The blind man He nodded and said: "Actually, the most regrettable thing in my heart is probably the New Year. Yao, the spies of the Chu people should have inquired about the situation here, but when Nian Yao came over, he did not see the mountains of grain and grass. "

Because,

Pingxihou Mansion was not interested in this. The operation of this war was extremely efficient.

It's equivalent to Lord Zheng saying he's going to fight,

Oh no,

Lord Zheng hasn't said he's going to fight yet, but the people below are already making preparations in advance.

The main ordnance, food, grass, etc. were transported to the front line of Zhennanguan in advance. When Lord Zheng officially gave the order, a large number of civilians were recruited. In fact, most of the spare parts were used.

So, when Gongsun Zhi discovered that the Chu army had escaped from his preset encirclement early, he did not immediately think of this place, because it had become a transfer station and no longer a granary reserve. Ordered.

"Where are the Chu army's movements?" Lord Zheng asked.

“To the west.”

“Fengxin City?”

“It should be in that direction.”

“So, I want to knock on the door "What?" Zheng Fan asked.

Marquis Zheng did not believe that the Chu army could break into Fengxin City with just this. Although his home was empty, it would not be so empty, even if it was Nian Yao who led the army.

Of course, even if the Chu army ran to Fengxin City and showed off their power, it would be enough to embarrass him, the Marquis of Pingxi.

This is equivalent to the barbarians running their horses in front of the Zhenbei Hou Mansion.

"My lord." At this time, Siniang came over, "You can come and have a look under that shack."

Zheng Fan walked over.

The blind man also curiously asked Siniang: "What is it?"

"You can't see it yourself?"

"I'm blind."

"At this moment, The Lord is in a bad mood," Siniang reminded.

It means, don’t speak too “easy” at this time.

The blind man said indifferently: "The Lord can adjust himself."

At this point, the blind man is very confident in his Lord.

It was just that he was caught by surprise. Nian Yao was still in Jin, probably to the west, and his pursuers had already launched.

How could Tian Wujing’s closed disciple not be able to bear this small loss?

But when I walked to the shack and "saw" a row of wine jars under the shack...

The relaxed look on the blind man's face disappeared and began to become serious. At the same time, he used his spiritual power to speak to Siniang: "You shouldn't tell the Lord what was found here."

"Why?"< br>
"Something will happen. There is a difference between a dead person and a dead person."

"He deserves it." Siniang said.

"That's what I say, but..."

At this time,

Zheng Fan walked out of the shed and

asked:

“Is A Ming coming with you?”

“Here he is. ." Siniang responded.

Some soldiers went to call A Ming.

A Ming's condition is not very good, his face is a little pale, but there is still a smile on his lips.

He reported before that he almost killed Nian Yao, just a little bit.

"My lord, are you looking for me?"

Zheng Fan pointed to the shack behind him and said:

"Your wine is here."

A Ming glanced at the wine jars, nodded, and walked over, but as he approached, his expression suddenly changed, because he smelled a kind of , very familiar taste.

He opened the lid of the wine jar.

In the wine jar, there was a corpse. To be precise, it was a human pig, which could also be called... a human stick.

The limbs were cut off, the eyes were gouged, the tongue was cut off, the nose was flattened and the ears were pierced.

Real human pigs can live for several days after they are made, but these ones are relatively rough and are obviously made by force, so they will die long ago.

A row of wine jars were opened, and the corpses were still wearing the armor of the Yan army. One of them was the garrison general here.

A Ming's eyes were red,

not because of sadness, not because of sadness,

but...angry.

On the battlefield, it is normal for you to kill my people and I to kill yours.

But this...

It is still in the wine jar.

Zheng Fan turned his back,

said:

"Nian Yao wanted to make me angry."

After a pause,

Zheng Houye said again;

"He succeeded." (End of this chapter)
