Chapter 873: Turning the Tables
Chapter 873 Turnaround
Wu Yong stared blankly at the scorching sun in the sky, some hot sunlight shrouded this barren mountain range, he really couldn't understand what Chang'an was thinking, what made them decide to give up the Tiger Prison Pass, and transfer the Lin Chong army stationed at the pass to Zhongtiao Mountain. Is it just to replenish the troops and hold Fenglingdu? No, Dongfang Jin and even Zhu Wu are not the kind of superficial people, they all know that the more dangerous they are, the more they must defend the important place of Tiger Prison Pass. But why did they give up on Tiger Prison? There is only one reason, that is, the army of Tiger Prison Pass did not come to Fengling, but to Zhongtiao Mountain. If this is the case, it is terrible, then doesn't it mean that this matter is a conspiracy from beginning to end, and the **** was determined to retreat to the north, just to attract the army into the hinterland of Zhongtiao Mountain. If this is a conspiracy, the matter of Chang'an must be fake, Zhao Yougong is not bedridden, he also planned this conspiracy with his own hands. In other words, this is an upright conspiracy, even if there is no Zhao Yougong, it is still a good way to break through from Zhongtiao Mountain. It's just that who would have thought that the **** would give up the Tiger Prison Pass and quietly rush to the aid of Zhongtiao Mountain? Regardless of the facts, there is only one option left before us, and that is to immediately turn around and withdraw from Mt. Nakajo. Moving forward and going on the offensive? Just kidding, people Tuoba Qingyun may not be able to engage in battle, when the time comes, Lin Chong will hold the southern part of Zhongtiao Mountain, block all sources of baggage, and the soldiers and horses who enter Zhongtiao Mountain will have to starve to death, counting on the soldiers and horses stationed in Hanguguan and Shangzhou to break through Fenglei Town and Fenglingdu defense line, and then return to Zhongtiao Mountain? This kind of idea can't even exist, and fools know how unrealistic this idea is.
Song Jiang was completely panicked this time, Wu Yong was deeply worried, now Song Jiang is the backbone of this army, if he has no opinion, then he will not be able to fight next. "Brother, please calm down, we still have a glimmer of life now. The army of Tiger Prison Pass must be sleepy and lacking in horses when it comes from afar, and it will not be able to form a perfect defensive formation in the southern part of Zhongtiao Mountain for a period of time. Brother Song. Don't hesitate, give the order to rush to the Snow Maiden Peak, it's too late. ”
Under Wu Yong's repeated appeasement, Song Jiang finally regained his senses, and as Song Jiang gave the order, Gao Minwen and others immediately led the army to leave Luojiapan, and the whole army returned to help Snow Girl Peak. At this time, to the south of the Snow Girl Peak, the army of Tiger Prison Pass had already launched a formation, and Yang Zhi, Mu Ali, Xiao Yunwu and others lined up. Attack order ready. Lin Chong held a clairvoyant mirror and looked at the situation of Snow Girl Peak from a distance, "General Mu, this time you come to take the lead, the rebels are busy attacking Luojiapan, there are definitely not many defenders of Snow Girl Peak, you have to take this mountain at all costs before the rebels return to Snow Girl Peak." Otherwise, it will be somewhat difficult to completely annihilate the rebels. ”
"Wow. The general rest assured, the last general swore to take the Snow Girl Peak to the death" Mu Ali roared, pulled out the steel knife and went into battle in person, and the three thousand sons under his command pounced on the Snow Girl Peak with Mu Ali. The army of Tiger Prison Pass destroyed the heavy soldiers and horses in the south in a battle, and it was menacing, and the rebels stationed at Snow Girl Peak were already a little panicked. In addition, when Qi Zhourong and others retreated before, they destroyed the fortifications. As a result, Mu Ali soon rushed to the Snow Maiden Peak. The mountain, which had just calmed down for a short time, was trampled by a group of people again, blood seeped into the soil, and the sound of fighting was everywhere. Mu Ali fought bravely, and most of his subordinates were brave men, known as the Khitan death squad. Under this bloody battle, the rebels were killed. Seeing that Mu Ali was about to take the Snow Girl Peak, Gao Minwen's army that rushed back in a hurry finally came, Gao Minwen knew the importance of the Snow Girl Peak, so he refused to back down at all, and finally drove Mu Ali's soldiers and horses down in the case of an absolute advantage in numbers.
Gao Minwen's return to help was too timely, if he came slower again, Snow Girl Peak would fall into the hands of Ding **** again. With Mu Ali withdrawing, Lin Chong also gave up the idea of attacking Snow Maiden Peak again. Now the rebels are in a hurry to escape from Zhongtiao Mountain, if they attack the Snow Girl Peak, the price will definitely be very large, it is better to take advantage of the rebels' mentality, so Lin Chong ordered, "Yang Zhi, Xiao Yunwu, you two quickly lead the troops to the south to help the old general Huyan, and make defensive preparations in the area of Chifengkou in the shortest possible time." ”
"Yes" Yang Zhi and Xiao Yunwu took the order to go, but Lin Chong did not rush to retreat, but led Mu Ali and his five thousand soldiers and horses to line up in the south of Snow Girl Peak, waiting for the rebels to arrive. Lin Chong waited in formation, but Gao Minwen didn't dare to attack rashly, his soldiers and horses had been fighting in Luojiapan for so long, and he ran all the way to Snow Girl Peak, and he was already exhausted. Lin Chong, but the Guanzhong Tiger who is as famous as Wu Jue, how powerful Wu Jue is, he has already seen it, and Lin Chong is so easy to deal with? Although Lin Chong did not ride a horse, he had a long body, a leopard head and eyes, and a spear and pestle on the ground.
This is the bearing of the tiger in Guanzhong, although Wu Liang is also a **** veteran, but he is too far behind Lin Chong. Lin Chong is not easy to deal with, so let's wait for General Song to come back. After half an hour, Song Jiang and Wu Yongcai ran to the Snow Girl Peak with a large group of soldiers and horses panting. As soon as he heard that Lin Chong was already in the south, Song Jiang was dizzy. Wu Yong was afraid that Song Jiang would do something impulsive, so he hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Brother Song, you still need to be calm, my department has just broken all the way, and my body is tired, so it is really inappropriate to leave the station at this time." In my opinion, now that the scorching sun is in the sky, Lin Chong is not comfortable leading his troops to line up there, and I am afraid that I will not be able to bear it after a long time, so it is better for us to rest well, live an hour, and when the enemy army can't bear it, then suddenly rush down the mountain, and then we will be able to kill the enemy army by surprise. ”
Wu Yong's method is not uncommon, when the old Huang Zhong beheaded Xiahou Yuan, this method was used, when Xiahou Yuan led the arrogant soldiers and fierce generals to swallow Huang Zhong in one go, but due to exposure to the scorching sun for a long time, they wanted to lie on the ground and sleep, and they couldn't concentrate, and finally they were cut off by the old Huang Zhong who suddenly killed him. Wu Yong just wanted to follow the example of Lao Huang Zhong, not to kill Lin Chong, as long as he could defeat this enemy army and break through to the south. So a strange scene appeared on the battlefield, the two sides were separated by four or five miles, and there was nothing to do with each other, Lin Chong did not attack the mountain, and Song Jiang did not go down the mountain, so the two sides consumed silently. However, there is no movement in Snow Girl Peak for the time being, and there is movement in Luo Jiapan. Tuoba Qingyun would not watch the rebels evacuate Zhongtiao Mountain unharmed, so after the army repaired for two hours, they rushed out of Luojiapan again and rushed towards the Snow Girl Peak. Song Jiang was also forced to be unable to do so. When Tuoba Qingyun led the troops to arrive, it was almost impossible to deal with the two-sided attack of Ding****, so he could only take the lead in attacking. But just when Song Jiang wanted to give the order to take action against Lin Chong's subordinates, he saw the flag waving under the mountain, and the **** soldiers who were still in formation retreated to the south like a tide. At this moment, all the rebels were blindfolded, and Song Jiang couldn't speak for a long time with his mouth half-open, and Tuoba Qingyun led the troops. Lin Chong led the troops to withdraw, what the hell is going on, could it be that Lin Chong has a contradiction with Tuoba Qingyun and wants to pit Tuoba Qingyun? But Lin Chong is not that kind of person, even if he has a suspicion, it is impossible to ignore the general situation, Wu Yong is a smart person in the end, he quickly understood Lin Chong's intentions.
Ay. was tricked by Lin Chong again, and the formation was not for blocking at all. It's about preparing for the rear defense. Soon, one thing verified Wu Yong's judgment, Tuoba Qingyun's troops stopped at the point of advancing to the Snow Girl Peak six miles, and there was no sign of continuing the march. Obviously, Lin Chong is not a pit Tuoba Qingyun, and the two of them are like negotiating. If you don't storm Snow Girl Peak, you won't give Song Jiang's army a chance to fight hard. It's ridiculous that he just thought about following the example of Lao Huang Zhong and beheaded Lin Chong. After reacting, Song Jiangke didn't hesitate at all, and the army swarmed down the Snow Girl Peak and headed south. He didn't know what kind of defense Ding**** had prepared in the south, but he had to rush out. As soon as the rebels moved, Tuoba Qingyun's soldiers and horses also moved, and they followed not far away, but the rebels divided a small group of people to block the attack, and all of them were eaten by Tuoba Qingyun's soldiers and horses without exception.
More than ten miles south from Snow Girl Peak, the rebels did not encounter any obstacles, until the Chifengkou area, and finally appeared in the figure of Ding ****. After seeing the situation in the area of Chifengkou, Song Jiang gasped, almost all the strategic places near Chifengkou were occupied by Ding****, and simple fortifications were also built on the mountain road, and dozens of ballistas were placed on the gentle Chifengkou. This is what the **** prepares in an hour, what kind of price does it take to attack and defend such a tight Chifengkou? Chifengkou, also known as Hades, was occupied by a group of mountain bandits who lived by robbing their homes. The reason why those gang of mountain bandits have been able to be chic for decades is because of the dangerous position at Chifengkou.
Chifengkou must be fought, but how to fight has to be carefully calculated, Song Jiang and more than a dozen generals and colonels hid in a sheltered depression, and they all had sad faces, "How is the situation of baggage in the army now?" ”
Gao Minwen knew everything about the big and small things in the army, so he opened his mouth and replied, "General Song, the baggage situation is very bad, in order to pursue the soldiers and horses on the Snow Girl Peak and take Luojiapan as soon as possible, the brothers only brought half a day's rations. Now that the baggage has been taken away, even if the brothers save food, they can only hold out for two days, and if they can't break through the Chifeng Pass within two days, our army will be in danger. ”
Half a day's rations? Song Jiang only felt that his cheeks hurt a little, and he couldn't wait to cut two taels of meat on his body as military rations to eat. Although he can last two days by saving food, you must know that he can save two days of rations without doing anything, but now that he is fighting, he still makes his brothers hungry, isn't this looking for death? said that it was two days, but in fact, it would burn high incense for one day, and I knew that it would be insufficient weight, but this was too tragic. By this time, Song Jiang was already very clear that Chifengkou must be fought, and it must be fast, "Now the situation is very clear, you go back and tell the brothers of all departments, if you don't want to be starved to death and want to continue to live, take Chifengkou before noon tomorrow, otherwise, none of us can escape." ”
Storming Chifengkou will definitely pay the price of blood, but no one refutes it, because there is no other way to go except this road. At night, the rebels buried the pot and cooked, but Tuoba Qingyun, who was stationed in the north of the rebels, was not idle, she summoned Qi Zhourong and Ye Jingtang and others to discuss the matter of the night attack, "If my expectations are correct, the rebels will definitely enter the Chifeng Pass tonight to carry out a fierce attack." Everyone must be prepared, as long as the rebels make a move on Chifengkou, they will attack the rebels from the rear with all their strength to reduce the pressure on Chifengkou. ”
Ye Jingtang and the others all knew that the rebels were now a group of mad dogs who were anxious, and they could definitely do it this night attack on Chifengkou. As expected, before the end of the day, Gao Minwen led the crowd to launch a fierce attack on the west side of Chifengkou, and Ye Jingtang and Qi Zhourong, who had been preparing for a long time, also waved their troops south and joined the battle. Wu Yong had long expected that Tuoba Qingyun would take the opportunity to raid, so he asked Yue Tengze to lead more than 7,000 soldiers and horses to guard the northern line. The war in the area of Chifengkou is in full swing, and Yue Tengze's troops have also exchanged hands with Qi Zhourong's soldiers and horses, before the rebels had the advantage of troops, this time the situation is different, Qi Zhourong's troops are no less than Yue Tengze, and the rebels will be defeated and retreated as soon as the two sides fight each other. Yue Tengze knows that he really wants to attack Chifengkou, and he doesn't want to face Qi Zhourong, Qi Zhourong is a war maniac with the same name as Fan Wenyuan, and the Infantry Department of Chang'an Jingshi University Hall produced two war maniacs four years ago, one Qi Zhourong and one Fan Wenyuan, this son of a bitch is as fierce as taking medicine. Qi Zhourong has also been pressed enough these days, so he stared at Yue Tengze, who was dressed in golden armor, and only beat Yue Tengze with tears in his eyes and blood in his heart. Yue Tengze was already under great pressure, and as Ye Jingtang led his troops to kill from the flank, Yue Tengze's troops finally couldn't hold it and fled to the south in a hurry. Yue Tengze's defeat, the only turning point of the rebels in Zhongtiao Mountain also disappeared, Tuoba Qingyun's army broke through Yue Tengze's defense, and began to attack the rear of the rebels.
Listening to the sound of killing one after another behind him, Song Jiang was silent, Song Jiang always had a way to escape for his life in the past, but this time, he didn't know how he escaped. Is it a **** to surrender? Don't even think about it, he Song someone just forced Zhao Yougong's old father-in-law to death, can Guanzhong accept him Song someone? What's more, even if there is no stubble, Zhao Yougong may not dare to use him. Chai Keyan can tolerate him Song Jiang, that is because the Chai family is weak and needs him Song Jiang to contribute, but it is different.
Hey, is it really that the sky is going to kill him Song Jiang? (To be continued.) )
