Chapter 784 Gao Gang

After listening to the scout's report, Li Bao smiled and shouted Okay, five thousand troops, that's enough, I have an idea in my heart, Li Bao immediately summoned the generals to come, in the tent, the generals of the Dingguo Army and the Tiger Head Army were all present, Li Bao held the book case with both hands, and said earnestly, "The marshal has decided, two days later, he will personally lead the troops to conquer Tianwangzhai, and then he will lead the army of Jin Xilang to Yuanshan Ridge, when General Geng, you are personally responsible for supervising the team, and General Hu is responsible for forming a formation to meet the enemy, be sure to give the chasing soldiers a head-on blow, and you must give Jin Xilang a pain to the handsome." Tang Commander, Jin Commander, you have been in Hushan for a long time, more familiar with the mountains and forests, when you will follow the army of the commander, retreat to the rear, according to the investigation from the Yuanshan Ridge to the Tianwangzhai Road on both sides of the narrow valley road, the commander will ambush the man and the valley road in advance, when retreating, you let the troops disperse, respectively feigned failure and fled to the valley road everywhere, if there are thieves chasing in, be sure to cooperate with the ambush soldiers to kill with all their might. ”

Li Bao arranged it in detail, but Tang Yunzhou still didn't understand something, he arched his hand and asked, "General Li, what should I do if I finish solving the enemy soldiers who entered the valley road, and all of them rush to the aid of Yuanshan Ridge?" ”

Li Bao smiled slightly, and said with great confidence, "No, you still stay in your respective positions, find more rolling wood and gravel in your spare time, and put them in the road, in short, when the enemy soldiers return to Tianwang Village, you must slow down their return to Tianwang Village as much as possible." ”

After listening to Li Bao's words, Jin Wenhuan and Tang Yunzhou glanced at each other, quite shocked, Li Bao was so confident that he could rely on the soldiers and horses in his hands to repel the soldiers and horses of Tianwangzhai? Tang Yunzhou was not worried about whether Jin Xilang would chase him out, because with Jin Xilang's blind and arrogant temperament, he was in the Wenshan realm. There was no reason why he should not pursue. The question is. Why is Li Bao so confident, it depends on the Dingguo Army, which is mostly gangsters and murderers, if Jin Xilang is blindly confident, then General Li Bao seems to be not far behind.

Two days passed quickly, and on the tenth day of the lunar month, Li Bao really led three thousand soldiers and horses to Tianwangzhai to challenge as he said before, of course, there were four thousand tiger-headed troops behind him, and at this time. The 500 warriors responsible for crossing Wenshan finally came to the mountain beam directly above Baozhai after going through many difficulties and dangers. The north wind was howling, freezing people's scalps numb, Yue Ziqi held a clairvoyant mirror to observe the situation in Baozhai. As His Royal Highness expected, although Baozhai is a place where there is no capital, but because of the natural barrier of Wenshan, it is impossible for the enemy to penetrate through the three villages in front, so the defensive force is very weak, and from the perspective of the house, the defenders should be less than 300 people.

"Yue is in control, and a signal has been sent from the west. It is estimated that the marshal has already sent troops to Tianwangzhai, when will we start? A soldier next to him was so cold that he couldn't stand it. Asked anxiously.

Yue Ziqi frowned, his expression was very solemn, "Wait, we are His Royal Highness's biggest reliance on Tianwangzhai, this is above Baozhai, and Baozhai is too close to the main village, so we only have one chance, we must wait patiently, we must ensure that the soldiers and horses of Tianwangzhai leave completely before we can start." You don't have to be too anxious, since Your Highness has set this strategy, then the commander will definitely find a way to buy time for us, what we have to do is to find the safest time to start. In short, you remember, we only allow success, not failure, first fix the rope, when the general orders the attack, the first batch of fifty people must enter the treasure village within half an hour, control the various gates of the treasure village, control the beacon tower, and completely cut off the connection between the treasure village and the Tianwang village. ”

"Oh" everyone replied in unison, on this cold mountain beam, they were like a group of ghosts, always staring at everything in the treasure village.

In front of Tianwang Village, at this time, the army gathered, swords and guns were numerous, Li Bao was not an outstanding general, if it was useless, General Li estimated that he could not even rank in the top 20 of the Dingguo Army, but this time Li Bao was carrying a sword, holding a snake spear and a cow coaxing to stand at the front, looking like Lao Tzu was the first in the world. He just wants to challenge Jin Xilang, in short, acting should be real, and to follow the customs, Goryeo is popular to fight generals, it is said that when Murong Fu set Goryeo, he once defeated six Goryeo generals in Kaesong alone, causing the other party to not move the army, and directly opened the city gate to offer the seal of the city lord.

"Which of you is Jin Xilang, quickly tell Jin Xilang which turtle son to get out, Lao Tzu is the commander of the Dingguo Army and the Navy is in charge of Li Bao, and he has come to Jin Xilang to kill the dog, if you know each other, quickly kneel and beg for mercy, Grandpa Li will spare him from death!" Li Bao spoke extremely arrogantly, but Jin Xilang was a brave and ruthless person, he was scolded by people blocking the door of the house, he couldn't help it, and immediately separated everyone and rushed out with a bright silver gun. Sweeping his eyes at Li Bao, he almost didn't laugh out loud, can this bearded uncle still fight?

"Look at your beard, if this king fights you, won't he bully the old and weak? Go and tell that regent Zhao Yougong, if you want to fight, he will also fight, what are you? ”

Li Bao's face darkened, and he secretly scolded for not knowing, is this called a beard? This is called beautiful hair, don't you know who Guan Yu is? Touching his beard, Li Bao snorted, pointed at the snake spear, and shouted loudly, "Hugh has the advantage of his tongue, he has the ability to fight with Ben Shuai, see that Ben Shuai is not fighting, you are looking for teeth all over the ground, hum, just a bandit, and dare to call himself the king, it is simply a big joke in the world." ”

Li Bao's scolding shook the sky, Jin Xilang was young and vigorous, how could he stand it, wow, a roar, and he fought Li Bao with long legs and a bright silver gun. Don't look at Li Bao holding the Zhangba Snake Spear, but he is by no means Yanren Zhang Yide, the Zhangba Snake Spear Dance is so-so, after less than thirty rounds of fighting, Li Bao began to be in danger, Jin Wenhuan, who was in charge of watching the play, had a cold sweat on his forehead, Li Dashuai is simply acting with his life, maybe this life will really stay here.

A spear came again, and the snake spear was raised, but then the butt of the opponent's gun was retracted, and then it was smashed, and Li Bao was directly smashed, and Li Bao was called a pain. Jin Wenhuan saw that the performance was almost over, and he was really afraid that General Li would die on the stage, so he hurriedly ordered people to beat the drums, and all the troops moved forward together, and the Dingguo Army moved, and the Tianwangzhai side would not stand still, and suddenly the drums on the battlefield were thunderous, and the swords and swords were shadowed. In Goryeo, there are very few battle scenes of tens of thousands of people, and most of the heroes and powerful people fought and killed thousands or even hundreds of people, but this time nearly 20,000 troops were gathered outside the Tianwang Village alone. The two sides come and go. Kill can't be killed. But with the passage of time, the advantages of Tianwangzhai were finally revealed. Tianwangzhai nearly 15,000 soldiers and horses, the advantage of numbers alone is already invincible, Li Bao ordered a retreat, not so much a feint, but a real defeat, the Dingguo army and the tiger head army turned around and fled. On his own turf, Jin Xilang really couldn't find a reason not to beat the water dogs. So he waved his troops straight up, "Brothers, catch up, hurry all these people to the Imjin River, and let them go to hell." ”

"Kill" The soldiers of Tianwangzhai screamed, their faces were red, and some of the soldiers of the Dingguo Army who fell behind were a little slower, and they were hacked to death by the enemy who caught up, anyway, neither side seemed to think about taking any prisoners.

It was supposed to be a feint, but the Tiger Head Army has been fighting with Tianwangzhai for more than a hundred years. That hatred almost seeped into the bones, and some tiger-headed soldiers instinctively rushed forward desperately. And so it goes. The Dingguo army retreated in strict accordance with the military order, and the tiger-headed army in the rear rushed forward, one in front and one behind, the formation was completely disrupted, and a feint immediately turned into a rout. Jin Xilang held a bright silver spear, and his killing armor was full of blood stains, coupled with the gloomy gaze, and the evil laughter, like a hellish ghost. Li Bao fled north in a hurry, and Tang Yunzhou and Jin Wenhuan also hurriedly summoned and deployed, they knew very well in their hearts that if the actions were inconsistent, they would definitely suffer heavy casualties at that time. A feint turned into a rout, causing a sharp rise in the number of casualties, but it was not all without benefits, at least in Jin Xilang's view, he undoubtedly won, and he didn't have any suspicions at all, Cui Tianfang was in the back to press the formation, he didn't press all his forces at the beginning, Jin Xilang can do nothing, he must consider it as a think tank, in case the other party is a feint, he must leave a hand. When the Tiger Head Army destroyed the formation, the doubts in Cui Tianfang's heart were gone, if it was a feint, there would never be a situation of inconsistent action. As a result, Cui Tianfang made people wave the command flag, and the army was all pressed up, since he was victorious, he had to kill and injure the enemy's living force as much as possible.

The two sides chased me and fled, and gradually formed a long formation north of Tianwangzhai, like a long snake, Li Bao would not care about the tiger head army behind him, these people destroyed the formation, and almost broke the big thing, this matter will be counted later. After all, the Tiger Head Army is not like the Dingguo Army, cross-country running is a compulsory subject, running like this, without eight miles, it has been completely dragged behind by the Dingguo Army, fortunately, the original plan was like this. After entering those valley road areas, Tang Yunzhou made a gesture and led more than 100 people to flee to the valley road on the left, and those Tianwangzhai soldiers who were chasing after him almost instinctively divided their troops to chase in. The valley road is long and narrow, the two sides are steep mountain walls, the sun can't shine in at all, so it looks gloomy, although there are only more than 200 chasing soldiers, but what is the difference between more than 200 people and 50 people in this narrow valley road, everyone is crowded together, the front can not see the back, the back can not see the front. As he went deeper into the valley road, Tang Yunzhou's soldiers and horses slowed down, and with a cannon shot, a boulder suddenly fell on the cliff, smashing the two unlucky eggs into meat cakes in an instant, and at the same time, dozens of swordsmen rushed in at the other end of the valley road, Tang Yunzhou joined forces with these people, and carried out the most ferocious counterattack with the stones falling from the cliff. The soldiers of Tianwangzhai who chased in panicked, they wanted to escape, but in this narrow valley road, they had to be on guard against falling stones at all times, how could it be so simple to withdraw?

The same situation is playing out in many valley roads, since entering the valley road is very much of the area, the tiger head army will immediately separate and flee, head to the valley road without looking back, Tianwangzhai will inevitably divide troops to chase, as a result, more than 15,000 Tianwangzhai soldiers put into the battlefield have been unconsciously reduced, and in the end, the main force that followed Jin Xilang to chase Li Bao was only more than 9,000 people, a sharp decrease of more than 6,000 people, and the people of Tianwangzhai did not find anything wrong for a while. When the canyon area was passed, the terrain immediately became cheerful, Jin Xilang reorganized the formation to prevent the Dingguo army from killing a horse gun, and when he was rectifying the formation, he found that the number of people was much smaller, and he couldn't help frowning and asked, "What's the matter, people?" ”

"King, those thieves from Tiger Mountain escaped through the valley road, our people went to chase it, because there are more valley roads, chasing and chasing, somehow there are so many fewer people" A commander stepped forward and replied, if Jin Xilang can feel that something is wrong at this time, it is still very easy to withdraw, because now the war in the valley road will not end for a while and a half, and if you want to withdraw to Tianwangzhai, there must be no block. It's a pity that Jin Xilang's arrogance hurt him again, he felt that there was nothing wrong with dividing the troops, and those cubs in Hushan should have died a long time ago, so Cui Tianfang hadn't come yet, and Jin Xilang once again gave the order to march into Yuanshanling.

Five miles away from the canyon area, Cui Tianfang was snorting and panting, at this time he could already see that something was wrong, as he went deeper and deeper, the Han people and the Hutou army were coping better and better, at least except for the beginning of the killing, there was no large-scale killing now. Especially in those narrow valley roads, almost every time the Tiger Head Army divides its troops to escape, there are more than 100 people, if it really escapes, how can it be so clever? Once or twice is a coincidence, so is eight times out of ten still a coincidence? Therefore, the only explanation is that the Hutou army's escape was premeditated, and they had already discussed how to divide their troops and retreat before.

Cui Tianfang is a literati, and he is still a literati who is not very good, and he can't run anymore until now, so he can only order a few personal soldiers to quickly cross the canyon area and tell the king to lead the troops to withdraw. It's a pity that the people sent by Cui Tianfang didn't catch up with Jin Xilang at all, and by the time they found Jin Xilang, the main army had already gathered in Yuanshan Ridge.

The terrain of Yuanshan Ridge is flat and the grass is everywhere, and such a place is a good place for the army to fight. Li Bao retreated, he took Jin Xilang's nose and ran all the way back, to be honest, it was not easy to escape back, a feint turned into a big rout, he never thought of it. Tianwangzhai nearly 10,000 main army is behind him, the heavy footsteps shook the entire Yuanshan Ridge trembling, the 5,000 army in the north side of the Yuanshan Ridge arrayed, the shield hand in front of the block, the back is the spearman and the knife hand, among the 5,000 people, there are 3,000 people who have not been trained much death row prisoners and servants, at this time in the face of the imminent war, many of them began to tremble, and even some have peed their crotch.
