Chapter 339: Ambush in the Canyon
Qianqian, the fastest update of the latest chapter of Han Tianzi!
Liu Xiu held Dou Rong hostage, led his soldiers, and slowly retreated, the giant was afraid of the relationship between Dou Rong and Wang Yi, and did not dare to rush to kill, so he could only lead his reckless army and follow closely behind.
One of the two sides retreated, the other followed, and one walked for more than ten miles. Long Yuan came to Liu Xiu's side and whispered in his ear: "Lord, the time is almost up, and now it's past the hour!" β
Liu Xiu nodded, stopped, and shouted to the giant on the opposite side: "Stop!" β
Ju Wuba was patient, panting, and asked, "Liu Xiu, what do you want?" β
"Don't follow anymore, when we withdraw from Shili, we will naturally release Dou Rong!" Liu Xiu said.
"Why should I believe you?" The Big Mac asked angrily.
Liu Xiu shrugged his shoulders and said: "But whatever I promised, I will never go back, if you don't believe it, then I can't help it, I can only kill him first, and then fight to the death with you!" β
As he spoke, he raised the sword in his hand upward, apparently intending to pierce Dou Rong's throat with a sword.
Ju Wu hurriedly raised his hand and said, "Wait a minute! β
He glared at Liu Xiu opposite, was silent for a while, and said: "Okay, surnamed Liu, I will believe you this time, if you dare to go back on your word, Lao Tzu will kill all the Liu families in the world and let them give you a funeral!" β
Liu Xiu smiled indifferently, completely ignoring the threat of the giant in his heart. He took the reins handed over by Long Yuan, got on the horse, and then asked Long Yuan to take Dou Rong and the group went straight to Pingding Mountain.
After running out of ten miles, Liu Xiu looked back and saw that the reckless army such as Ju Wuba really hadn't caught up.
He stopped the war, and then asked Long Yuan to put Dou Rong down from the horse. He pulled out the Chixiao Sword, swung it downward, cut the rope on Dou Rong's body, and said, "Dou Rong, you can go!" β
Dou Rong slowly opened his eyes, first looked down at his body, and then, he raised his head, looked at Liu Xiu in surprise, and asked in disbelief, "Are you really going to let me go?" β
Liu Xiu said: "A gentleman's word, a whip quickly!" I will never go back on what I said unless I can't do it. β
Dou Rong looked at Liu Xiu with blank eyes, and didn't say anything for a while. He is Wang Yi's brother-in-law, Liu Xiu neither killed nor detained himself, just let himself go, Dou Rong still couldn't believe it.
Whether he believed it or not, Liu Xiu waved his hand to Long Yuan, who understood, took over an ownerless war horse, handed it to Dou Rong, and said, "Okay, we don't have time to delay with you here, you can leave quickly!" β
Dou Rong subconsciously took the reins, looked at Liu Xiu, and then looked at the people around him, tentatively turned the horse's head, and walked back a few steps.
Seeing that Liu Xiu and the others really didn't mean to stop him, Dou Rong was a little relieved, and felt that Liu Xiu really planned to let him go back.
He took a deep look at Liu Xiu, arched his hand and said, "General Liu's grace of not killing today, Duke Zhou has written it down." In the future, General Liu should be more careful of the giant, this person is not only superior in force, but also can drive a hundred beasts. β
After a pause, he said in an accentuated tone: "That's not a rumor!" That's all I have to say, and I will say goodbye next! After speaking, he urged the war horse under his crotch and ran out quickly.
It's no secret that the giant has the ability to drive beasts, and gossip has long been known to passers-by.
It's just that in the eyes of most people, it's just a rumor, not credible, how can people command those beasts of wealth, wolves, tigers and leopards?
Looking at Dou Rong's back, Ma Wu snorted indignantly and said, "Before leaving, you have to deceive the lord, a complete villain!" The lord shouldn't have let him go! β
Liu Xiu raised his eyebrows, pondered for a moment, and then muttered, "What if Dou Rong didn't lie?" β
Ma Wu was stunned for a moment, and asked in surprise: "The lord really believes that the giant does not have the ability to drive the wealth wolf, tiger and leopard?" β
Liu Xiu smiled indifferently and said: "The world is so big, there are no surprises, even if there is really a person who can drive a hundred beasts, there is nothing unusual." "And, if you look at it alone, Big Mac is indeed a strange person.
Without much delay here, Liu Xiu took more than 100 Han soldiers and soldiers to enter the territory of Pingdingshan.
Let's talk about Dou Rong, run all the way back to the Mangjun main formation, and join forces with Ju Wuba and others.
Seeing Dou Rong come back safe and sound, Ju Wuba also breathed a sigh of relief, and then, he was furious, if it wasn't Dou Rong's bad thing this time, he really screwed Liu Xiu'er's head off.
He didn't say a word to Dou Rong, waved his hand to the subordinates behind him, and shouted: "Chase!" Liu Xiu'er hasn't gone far yet, today, we must not let him run away! Ju Wu Ba was about to take his cavalry to pursue Liu Xiu, Dou Rong urged him to step forward, stretched out his hand to stop him, shook his head and said: "General Ju Wu, poor Kou Mo chases, look at the direction where Liu Xiu and the others are going, it is Pingding Mountain, where the terrain is steep, and it is very easy to set up ambushes
, or send scouts to investigate clearly! β
Send scouts to investigate? How long will that have to wait? When the scouts find out, the daylilies are cold!
Ju Wuba glared at Dou Rong dissatisfiedly, and said in a deep voice: "If it weren't for General Dou's greed for merit this time, how could he be captured by Liu Xiu?" How could Liu Xiu take the opportunity to escape? β
Now Ju Wuba is holding back his resentment, looking at Dou Rong, his eyes are blue. He snorted and gasped, and said, "If General Dou is afraid, just wait here, I don't have time to spend time with you here!" β
After speaking, he ignored Dou Rong anymore, took the cavalry under his command, and went straight to the direction of Pingdingshan.
Dou Rong couldn't persuade Ju Wuba, and in desperation, he could only take his subordinates and follow behind Ju Wuba, and go to Pingdingshan together.
Entering the territory of Pingdingshan, the terrain begins to become complicated, it is both mountains and forests, even if you want to find a guide to lead the way, you can't see the shadow of people. Ju Wuba led his cavalry, east and west, and waited for a large area of rocks, and finally saw the horse's hoof marks on the ground. Ju Wuba squatted down, took a closer look, and judged that they were all new horseshoe prints
, He was overjoyed, stood up, pointed to the direction in which the horseshoe prints extended, and said, "Liu Xiu is running over there!" Pursue! β
Under his guidance, the cavalry of the Mang army gradually penetrated into the Pingding Mountain, and further on, there was a large mountain blocking the way in front of them, and in the center of this mountain, as if split by a giant axe, there was a canyon that could accommodate two horses in parallel.
Looking at the horseshoe prints on the ground, Liu Xiu and the others passed through this canyon. Ju Wuba was just about to command his cavalry through the canyon, but Dou Rong chased after him and said urgently: "Wait! β
Ju Wuba's face was full of impatience, he looked back at Dou Rong who was running on a fast horse, and asked, "General Dou, what's the matter with you?" β
Dou Rong didn't speak immediately, but stared at the canyon in front of him with wide eyes.
The canyon is narrow and long, and the ground is still full of stones, which is extremely difficult to walk, and if there is an enemy ambush on the top of the mountain, your soldiers will be more than lucky when they pass through this canyon.
After looking at it for a while, Dou Rong shook his head at Ju Wu Ba and said, "General Ju Wu, this canyon is too steep, or ...... Let's get over it when we find out! β
The giant was almost happy, and when he didn't enter Pingding Mountain, Dou Rong said that there might be an ambush in the mountain, but he couldn't even see his shadow. Now that he is here, he says that there may be an ambush, but where are the ambushes?
At such a high mountaintop, can Liu Xiu and others still grow wings and fly up?
He said angrily: "If General Dou is afraid, let me wait first, this is all right, right?" As he spoke, he was about to step forward again.
This time, Dou Rong didn't back down, he quickly dismounted, grabbed Ju Wuba's sleeve, and said in a deep voice: "General Ju Wu, don't act rashly!" β
Ju Wuba is also in a hurry, time is pressing, and if it is delayed, Liu Xiu doesn't know where to run. He first waved his hand to his cavalry and said, "You wait and enter the canyon quickly!" β
Then, he turned his head to look at Dou Rong, his face was full of displeasure, and said, "Why did General Dou repeatedly stop me from chasing and killing Liu Xiu?" Could it be that General Dou has had an affair with Liu Xiu? β
His words made Dou Rong's face change suddenly, and he subconsciously loosened the sleeve of the giant master. He said with a gloomy face: "General Juwu is cautious! β
The Big Mac gave him a blank look and didn't say anything more. Dou Rong is Wang Yi's brother-in-law, and others may have an affair with the thief, but Dou Rong is absolutely impossible.
Delayed by Dou Rongyi, the cavalry under the command of Ju Wuba has entered the canyon in batches, at least hundreds of people. With so many soldiers and horses entering, there was no movement except the sound of horses' hooves.
Ju Wuba glanced at Dou Rong and seemed to say, how is it, where are the ambushes you are worried about? He laughed and strode into the canyon.
He entered the canyon, and walked forward about ten paces, and suddenly, he heard a loud bang above his head, and the giant subconsciously looked up, only to see a stone from a basin rolling down from the top of the mountain.
Dou Rong, who was standing at the entrance of the canyon, could see this scene clearly, and he subconsciously exclaimed: "Be careful of the ...... on your head"
Before he could finish speaking, the big rock had already smashed into the front of the giant.
The latter snapped a snort, slammed the hammer in his hand upward, and heard a loud bang in the ear chakra, falling from the top of such a high mountain, and there were dozens of pounds of big stones, which were smashed by a hammer from the giant.
Soon, however, second, third, and even more stones fell from the top of the hill one after the other. Ju Wuba stood in the canyon, his legs spread apart, picked up the twin hammers in his hands, and kept hitting them upward.
Bang, bang, bangβ
The loud sound of a hammer breaking stones came and went, and the echo lingered in the canyon for a long time. Such a scene made Dou Rong and the surrounding soldiers of the Mang Army all stunned, where is this still a human, it is a humanoid monster!
Ju Wu Ba smashed more than a dozen boulders in one go, but the stones on the top of the mountain were still falling down in a steady stream, and at this time, even the Ju Wu Ba was a little difficult to support.
He roared unwillingly, and his hammers came out together, smashing the two falling rocks again, and then, he retreated backwards, staggering out of the canyon.
At this time, looking at the giant Buba, he was almost like a native man, his head and body were full of dust and gravel chips, on the other hand, in the canyon, pieces of falling rocks were still falling down.
Ju Wuba successfully exited the canyon, but none of the hundreds of reckless cavalry who had entered the canyon earlier could withdraw. In the canyon, people were constantly hit by falling rocks and fell off their horses, and some were smashed to the ground with people and horses, and the screams of these hundreds of cavalry were already connected in the canyon.
