The 60,000 troops of Houjin gathered in Hengling. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info Among them, there are 20,000 Houjin main forces, 4,000 Mongolian elite soldiers, and more than 30,000 soldiers.

Qin Shuhuai immediately gave the secret decree to Meng Wei, and then said to him, "Old Meng, you take the secret decree and immediately go to Yuan Chonghuan and tell him that the Tartar army has gathered in Hengling and is ready to sneak through Jizhou! Remember, no matter what method you use, you must use it as fast as possible!"

The reason why he wanted to send Meng Wei was naturally because his martial arts were high enough, and he was not prone to accidents along the way, so he could send the news to Yuan Chonghuan in time. To put it bluntly, he only has more than 4,000 troops in his hands now, and no matter how strong his combat strength is, he will definitely not be able to stop the 60,000 troops of Houjin, and the only thing he can do is to delay them.

Meng Wei knew that the stakes were high, and after receiving the secret decree, he said, "Don't worry, my subordinates will set off." After a pause, he added, "My lord, be careful. ”

With that, his body suddenly jumped more than ten feet away, and disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye.

Qin Shuhuai also immediately stepped on the snow without a trace, shuttled quickly through the forest, and soon arrived at the ambush area. After telling everyone the news that the Tartar army had appeared, everyone immediately entered the predetermined ambush position.

Qin Shuhuai carefully inspected the ambush points, and basically found no flaws, but there were still a few people who were not too well disguised. In the spirit of the principle of foolproof, he stepped forward and pointed them out one by one, and after they re-disguised, he carefully examined them again. After tossing and turning like this for another half an hour, when I checked it for the last time, I saw that there were only green mountains and rocks and no abnormalities in the eyes, so I gave up.

At this moment, his mood is not an exaggeration to describe it as trembling and walking on thin ice. He knew better than anyone here that what was coming was a group of elites who were going to break new ground in another time and space, a group of heroes who could truly make history, and any one of them would be enough to open a book and a biography. How could he not be nervous in the face of such an opponent?

Qin Shuhuai returned to his ambush position, quietly hidden, and then silently calculated the time, estimating that it should take almost two hours for the Houjin army to arrive here.

An hour passed.

Two hours passed.

The Houjin army still did not arrive. Perhaps it was because they had too many horsemen, and the rocks and obstacles along the way slowed down their march.

The sun is about to set. The red sun is slanting to the west, and the blood-red sunset is indeed spectacular and abnormal.

Click!

Suddenly, there was a jumble of footsteps ahead, mixed with some unintelligible language.

Qin Shuhuai's heart tightened again, they are here!

I saw a group of Tartar soldiers coming slowly. These Tartar soldiers were all wearing thick armor, with scimitars pinned to their waists, and their bodies were extremely strong, and they looked like the elite Baya soldiers in the Tartar army. These Bayala soldiers numbered about a hundred people, and they must have been the outposts of the army.

As they walked, they carefully observed the hills on either side of the trail. After all, everyone knows that this is the ideal place to set up an ambush. However, because the Houjin Horse Whistle has not found Yuan Chonghuan's army out of the city, Nei Ying said that this road is extremely secret, and few people know about it, and they did not find any traces of the army passing on the road along the way, so as in history, they don't think there will be an ambush here. These outposts are just a matter of routine.

These outposts were followed by about five hundred or so infantry. These infantry were mainly responsible for clearing the way for the rear army to pass through.

Qin Shuhuai did not give the order to move, and let all the more than 600 people pass through the ambush area safely. What he wants to ambush is naturally the army behind.

After another quarter of an hour or so, a long procession slowly drove in. The leader was a middle-aged man in bronze armor and about forty years old. This man has strong limbs and bright eyes, and he can see at a glance that he is a battle-hardened general.

Qin Shuhuai had seen the portraits of the main generals of the Later Jin Dynasty before, and vaguely remembered that this person should be the commander of the Left Wing Forward Battalion of the Later Jin Dynasty, Abatai, the seventh son of Nurhachi, and the owner of the Blue Banner. Since the age of 23, he has been on an expedition at the order of his father, and has made great achievements in the conquest of Mongolia and the attack on Liaodong, and is one of the founding heroes of the Qing Dynasty in history.

And beside him, there is an extremely majestic warrior, this person is about thirty years old, about 1.9 meters tall, with a full beard, wearing armor, holding a wide-backed long knife, eyes like eagle falcons, looking very good at kung fu. However, Qin Shuhuai didn't have any information about this person, so he didn't know who he was.

After more than 1,000 people of the left wing forward battalion of Houjin entered the ambush circle, the rest of the left wing army of about 3,000 main forces and 2,000 soldiers also slowly entered the ambush circle under the leadership of Azig.

Within the two-kilometer-long ambush circle, an army of six thousand Houjin troops poured in at once. Of these, 4,000 are the main elite, and 2,000 are auxiliary pawns.

These 6,000 people are densely packed on the narrow passageway, which makes people salivate!

Even people without any military knowledge know that such favorable ambush conditions are difficult to find with lanterns!

Qin Shuhuai's palms were sweating, and the battle that would decide the course of his change was about to start!

He waved lightly at one of the river gangs beside him.

The man nodded immediately, and then lit a firework.

"Shh~~ Smack!"

The fireworks rose into the sky with a loud bang, completely shattering the silence in the valley!

On both sides of the trail, the deafening shouts of killing suddenly sounded, causing all the Houjin soldiers on the road to be surprised, and the horses all neighed.

Qin Shuhuai divided the two-kilometer ambush section into four sections, named A, B, C, and D respectively to facilitate command.

Section A is located at the beginning of the ambush section and is responsible for a total of about 500 meters of the section. In Section A, Qin Shuhuai invested a total of 2,000 troops, and these 2,000 people were composed of a mixed army of 200 Loess Banners, 200 Red Fire Banners, 1,600 Jianghe Gang and the original Jizhou garrison, which was the largest number of all ambush points, and also the heaviest and most critical task. The two thousand men were evenly distributed on the hills on the left and right sides of the road.

They are in a position that is destined to face the most brutal test.

After seeing the signal, the Loess Banner first pushed more than a dozen huge rolling stones into the trail, not only killing and wounding dozens of enemy troops, but also completely blocking the trail, quickly separating Azig's left wing army from the Houjin army.

After that, the Red Fire Banner began to spray fire oil on the path, and under the spray of a special water gun, the fire oil fell like a continuous drizzle, and was precisely sprinkled in the dense crowd on the path. When the Houjin soldiers realized that it was fire oil, forty huge fireballs rolled down from both sides of the road!

Each of these fireballs was about ten meters apart, and for a while, the narrow path of five hundred meters was filled with huge fireballs burning everywhere. And many Houjin soldiers have already been contaminated with fire oil, not to mention touching those fireballs, even if they get a little closer, they will immediately set themselves on fire!

The fire spread rapidly among the dense crowd! The terrifying purgatory, quickly formed in the bloody light of fire and the scorching air!
