Chapter 1108: Doubts
Time passed little by little, but the Ming army on the opposite side did not move at all as if they were planning to set up camp in front.
Not only did the cavalry dismount, but they actually fed the horses in front of them, and ate lunch and lunch, so rampant behavior made the rogue who was ambushed in the woods angry, Lao Tzu hid in the woods and was cold and hungry, but you ate and drank there heavily, and you didn't take us seriously.
There were more than 100 rogue cavalry in ambush in the woods on the left, and their task was to wait for the Ming army to arrive and suddenly kill and drag the other party, so as to buy time for the rogue on the right side and behind the mountain pass, but the original plan was good, but the Ming army on the opposite side stopped on the opposite side and never moved forward, which also made their original plan fall through.
This cavalry is led by a sentry general, wearing a cotton armor, he is lying next to an uncle staring at the Ming army only more than a mile away from them, the expression on his face is a little uncertain, this Ming army has stayed there for at least two quarters of an hour has not moved, could it be that they have already found out?
Just when he was about to send someone to inquire, he heard a commotion from behind, and his face immediately sank, on the occasion of the coming of the great war, there were still people who did not respect the order and dared to make noise at will, did he really think that he would not dare to kill?
He immediately stood up and walked in the direction of the noise. Just after taking two steps, he saw a burly man with a beard and a dozen guards walking towards him, this person was none other than Liu Zongmin, who had just been promoted to head the brigade.
I saw Liu Zongmin walking up to him, and asked angrily: "Zhang Monkey, the situation of the Ming army has changed, and I am to take over your command with King Chuang's special order, do you have no opinion?" ”
"Your turtle son is here, what can I say?"
Zhang Monkey secretly slandered himself in his heart, but he didn't dare to scold Liu Zongmin on his face, so he could only be solemn: "Since King Chuang has an order, we should obey it." ”
Liu Zongmin was in no mood to pay attention to this guy, he pushed aside the monkey, walked to his place by himself, squinted his eyes and looked at it for a while, and scolded angrily: "Hmph, these brave bastards, they don't even dare to move forward for a mile, and they are also known as the first strong army in the Ming Dynasty, I'm sorry!" ”
The surrounding rogues twitched in their hearts, knowing that the other party had an ambush and dared to crash into it, that is not called recklessness, this commander is too strange.
However, Liu Zongmin was just venting the dissatisfaction in his heart, and he was not really stupid, and after observing for a while, he called Zhang Monkey, "Do you think you can send a team of brothers to lure those officers and soldiers in?" ”
Zhang Monkey was a little embarrassed: "In charge of the brigade, it seems that those officers and soldiers have begun to be vigilant, if we send someone to lure us again, I am afraid it will be self-defeating." ”
"Foolish fart."
Liu Zongmin scolded: "How do you know if you can't do it if you haven't tried it, don't talk nonsense, quickly send someone over to try." Remember, don't let the brothers in the old camp go, just send the people from the camp to go over, understand? ”
"Understood"
Zhang Monkey answered, and immediately went down to make arrangements.
Soon, a team of rogues riding all kinds of cattle appeared in front of the Ming army, only to see these rogues appear on the right side of the Jiangning army in a panic, and after seeing the Ming army, they fled to the left without saying a word.
Looking at those rogues who were almost close at hand, Mr. Bai was really a little crying and laughing, "His grandmother's, does Lao Tzu look so idiotic, he even resorted to such a bad trick to lure soldiers?"
Shi Chang on the side also smiled: "That's all the thieves have to do these two times, but then again, although this kind of strategy is very inferior, even if they fail, they won't lose anything for the thieves, but if they succeed, they will make a lot of money." ”
"Hmm...... That's just as well. ”
Mr. Bai nodded.
"Who said that the rogues are stupid thieves, and now it looks like they're not bad, but if they are consumed, it won't be good for us, who knows what kind of moths the thieves will produce. By the way, did Mr. Qian have an order to come down? ”
"Not yet."
In this way, Mr. Bai raised his binoculars again to check the surroundings, and found that there was still no movement in the woods on the left and right, and he couldn't help muttering: "It seems that there are also capable people over there of the thieves, and they can be so calm." ”
For some reason, a wave of uneasiness suddenly surged in his heart, and after thinking about it, he made up his mind: "We can't wait any longer, since the thieves have set up an ambush here, we can't take risks, pass me on the order to change the rear team into the front army, and retreat immediately, we can't delay any longer." ”
"My lord, let's wait for the news of Mr. Qian." Someone persuaded.
"No, it stands to reason that Mr. Qian is not far from us, there should have been news for such a long time, but there has been no news so far, it must have happened, we can't hesitate any longer, let's retreat immediately!"
"Whoa"
Military orders are like a mountain, and since the boss has given an order, whether it is right or wrong, the subordinates must also carry it out.
With the order of President Bai, the cavalry mounted their horses one after another, and the rear team turned into the front team and galloped towards the way they came.
The cavalry's actions could not be said to be unpleasant, and in just a few minutes, more than 100 people completed the preparations for retreat, but when they had just galloped less than two miles, they saw a dense group of rogues pouring out of the official road behind.
There are a lot of these rogues, he roughly estimated that there are at least a thousand people, and what is even worse is that these rogues also set up many rejections and obstacles on the official road, this Bai Zong immediately realized that if he insisted on rushing over, his team of 100 people would probably fold here.
Thinking of this, he immediately ordered: "Everyone listen to my command, immediately go up the hill on the right, and occupy it." ”
"Whoa!"
The Jiangning army was worthy of a well-trained team, and with the order given, this cavalry made a right turn on the way to gallop and rushed up the hillside on the right.
Soon the small hillside was occupied.
It is a dirt slope with a radius of less than a mile, and there is not much vegetation on the slope, only a few trees.
After occupying this dirt slope, Bai Zong immediately ordered: "Everyone dismounts and starts digging the hidden soldier cave." ”
When Li Zicheng arrived with Li Yan, Liu Zongmin and others, he was surprised to find that these Jiang Ning troops had actually dug several shallow ditches that could hide in a short period of time, which also made them, who had never seen this kind of thing, feel a burst of consternation.
"What the hell are these Ming soldiers doing?"
This is the doubt in the minds of almost all the rogues.
