Water Margin Immortal Path

Chapter 011 Charge at the forefront

Wu Song was on the verge of going berserk. He originally thought that following Yang Jian, a treacherous minister, to the front line, he would not have to go into battle. After the war, Yang Jian flattered him in front of Zhe Zong, taking the credit of others as his own, and using his skills to achieve success. With some tricks, you can help Longting cultivate Taoism and become an immortal. This is what traitorous ministers have done throughout the ages.

Unexpectedly, Yang Jian, a dead eunuch, was so passionate that he would take the initiative to take on the most dangerous task. After Wu Song patiently explained it to Yang Jian, the manager's face turned white as snow, and he trembled: "When I was in the capital, I also went to the school field and saw the two armies confronting each other. Their flags were all in the Chinese army..."

"That's a handsome flag!" Wu Song said angrily, "Brother, good brother! Have you ever been on the battlefield?"

"Our family once beat the crap out of more than a dozen shabby households. Does this count?"

"What do you think?"

The two were silent for a long time, and Wu Song probed: "Can you discuss it with Zhang Kai and ask him to be accommodating?"

Yang Jian said listlessly: "The military order has been signed. If our family regrets it, he will definitely behead him. Even if he comes up with the imperial edict, it will be useless. He will win if he files the imperial edict. Besides, there is no one in our family in the palace..."

"How about we escape?"

When Yang Jian heard this, he suddenly became furious and said: "Wu Er, we think you are a man, so we made friends with you. I didn't expect you to be so cowardly. It's unreasonable for me to look up to you! For the sake of Jade Lotus and Golden Lotus For the sake of the two sisters, I will let this matter go. Don’t bring up the matter of running away again. Otherwise, don’t blame our family for falling out with you!”

Wu Song was extremely ashamed that he was despised by the eunuch, and this eunuch was also a future traitor. He was so ashamed that he hurriedly said: "I'm just talking. Why don't you ask Ruda, he has been in the war for a long time, maybe he has some ideas ”

The next day, the two of them came to the martial arts field together. Ruda was working hard to dance the crescent moon shovel weighing more than 60 kilograms until it was covered with silver light and airtight. Next to him were four other members of the Third Army of the Tiger Wings. There are two commanders, two holding swords, another wielding a spear, and one wielding a chain hammer. They are not as outstanding as Ruda, but they are still good at martial arts.

When the soldiers around saw him, they all cheered loudly.

Wu and Song called Ruda down to a quiet place and told them about Zhang Kai's order for their third army to protect the military flag. Ruda was overjoyed and said: "The Sa family has had this intention for a long time, and they also asked Xianggong Xiaozhong for orders to protect the army." The flag, Mr. Xiao Zhong just doesn’t allow it, so it’s a pleasure to follow Yang Jianjun! This is the first major achievement of the three armies. In the past, the Hussars were in charge of the flag, so there is no role for us!”

Yang Jian was unhappy: "When we discussed the matter, we wanted to take the lead. Zhang Shuai agreed so readily. It turns out that there is such a thing as the first place..."

Wu Song thought to himself: "It is probably that Mr. Xiao Zhong and Zhang Shuai conspired. They clearly want to trick you and let you die on the battlefield. They have military orders in hand, and the emperor can't say anything."

Ruda, the violent man, was so excited that he shouted: "Sajia tells you that protecting the military flag is a first-class job, but if you break into the battlefield, the enemy's soldiers, big and small, will rush towards you, and there will be a sea of ​​people. As long as you The knife is fast, just click and chop!"

"What if the knife is not fast?"

"Why ask those trivial things? You are already dead anyway..."

Wu Song and Yang Jian looked at each other speechless. It was true that Yang Jian was a Qi practitioner, but in the chaos of the army, a half-hearted Qi practitioner like him could not use many methods. Wu Song was just getting started, and his eyes were dark. .

"Brother, can you refine the armor into a magic weapon, the kind that is invulnerable?"

"No, our family can only make white bones and skull flags, and this flag has been made for more than ten years and has not been completely completed. Dear brother, what about you?"

"Neither do I. I think it would be better if we put on a few more layers of armor..."

Wu Song and Yang Jian both put on two or three layers of armor for themselves, wore steel helmets on their heads, and picked two strong shields, one in their hands and one on their backs. In the end, the two of them reluctantly discovered that although the defensive power of this set of equipment was amazing, its agility was almost zero. On the battlefield, they would definitely be captured.

The two had to throw away a shield and take off a layer of armor before they could move freely. At noon, Zhang Kai, the commander of the Jingyuan Road, ordered the entire army to move forward and attack the Moyan Gorge.

Prior to this, the defenders of Qinfeng Road and Dongshan Army Road advanced almost at the same time. The defenders of Qinfeng Road were in the southwest to contain Xixia Zhuoluo and Nanjunsi, while the defenders of Dongshan Road attacked Xiazhou and contained the defenders of Xining Prefecture. He Xiangqingjun.

These two armies were only designed to cooperate with Zhang Kai's Jingyuan Road army to capture Moyan Gorge in one fell swoop and open the way to the west. This was the most brilliant battle in the Song Dynasty at the end of the Northern Song Dynasty. There were famous generals such as Zhang Kai, Zhong Shidao, Guo Cheng, Zhe Keshi, etc. The cavalry was unprecedentedly powerful, reaching 10,000 people. In the rear, Zhending Mansion and Daming Mansion continued to deliver grain and grass. This year, the Song State, which had been weak for a long time, had been waiting for a century.

At night, the Jingyuan Army rushed to Wuyan Gorge. While Zhang Kai ordered his soldiers to build forts overnight, he also ordered the cavalry to advance six or seven miles, beating drums and firing cannons, which made the Xixia defenders in Wuyan Gorge suspicious and stayed up all night. . The supervisor, Mele, was too embarrassed to go out to fight at night for fear of being ambushed. The next morning, when the sun rose, Meledu stood at the top of the city and looked outside. He was so frightened that he almost fell off the city wall!

But ten miles away, the Song army built a military camp that stretched for five or six miles overnight, divided into three camps, connected from front to back, and echoed from left to right. Meledubu quickly sent a scout to investigate, and soon the scout reported back: "Looking from a distance, there is no guard outside the camp, no smoke can be seen, and no one is patrolling. It looks like a ghost camp."

Mele was both confused and suspicious, and suddenly laughed loudly and said: "These Han people are cunning and want to lure me into fighting. If they try to ambush me again, I will not fall for their trick. Come here! I will edit a book and send it to me." Go to the head coach of the Song Army and tell him that I have discovered his trick!"

The guard general of Wuyan Gorge couldn't help but admired: "The Han people are cunning. Fortunately, the supervisors are here, otherwise my subordinates would have fallen into their trap."

Not long after, the messenger came back with a reply letter from Zhang Kai, saying: "Decisive battle in the afternoon!"

Mele stared blankly, then laughed and said: "The Han people want to deceive me again. If I let the army rest, he will definitely attack the camp. This kind of trick is only worthy of deceiving a three-year-old naughty boy!" He ordered the troops to prepare for battle, but they didn't know they were waiting. All morning, no Song troops were seen attacking the city. Those Xixia troops had not slept all night, were nervous all morning, and were exhausted.

They were exhausted, but the Song army slept all morning. By noon, they heard a blast of artillery and war drums in the Song barracks. Tens of thousands of troops poured out of the camp. The cavalry on both sides advanced together, the infantry swarmed in the middle, and the archers in front. , swarmed to a stop three miles outside the city, clamoring for a decisive battle.

Mule was unwilling to start a war and was afraid of losing morale. The guard general Ye Canma offered advice: "Sir, the Song army has always been weak and not accustomed to fighting. However, our army is brave. One of them can defeat two Song soldiers. Why?" Are you afraid? Moreover, there are a thousand defenders on each side of the Wuyan Gorge. When the soldiers make a noise and rush down from the mountains, the Song army will definitely be defeated and flee! Defeat, there are a few eminent monks in the city, and if they do anything, hundreds of thousands of Song troops will be killed!"

Meledubu was relieved and left five thousand soldiers to guard the city. The rest of the army gathered up and came outside the city. The archers raised their heads to the sky and fired arrows. A heavy rain of arrows fell in front of the formation. The two armies were one stone's throw away. When Wu Song and Yang Jian saw this hail of arrows, they both shuddered, their heads squeezed together, and they muttered: "We feel that the two sets of armor are a bit thin..."

"I think so too! How about we wear another set?"

Meledubu watched the Song army's formation for a long time. Suddenly he looked up to the sky and laughed. He looked to the left and right and said, "The Song army has decided to retreat!"

Ye Chanma immediately praised him and said, "Why do you say this, sir?"

Mele Dubu pointed his horsewhip at the position of Wu Song and others, and said with a smile: "The Song Army uses infantry to hold the banner. Where can the cavalry be fast? The infantry has weak combat effectiveness and runs slowly. It is obvious that the commander-in-chief of the Song Army knows that he cannot defeat me. The army is ready to retreat."

"My lord is wise, it is true that Sun Wu is still alive!"

Mele was triumphant and said: "When the generals compete in battle later, we must make a good start. Kill the Song soldiers until they drop their helmets and armor, and this will show the prowess of our army!" After hearing this, all the Xixia generals screamed loudly. They shouted, asking for orders one after another, wanting to be the first to fight.

Under the banner of the Commander-in-Chief of Song Bingzhong, Zhang Kai, the military envoy, said in a low voice: "We sent Supervisor Yang to die. Isn't it too much?"

Zhong Shidao shrugged his shoulders: "What does he ask for himself have to do with us? How can a eunuch die?"

Zhang Kai nodded and said, "Are you sure Wu Song can defeat Xixia's cavalry?"

"This man has a special constitution. Even the snow-trodden lion colt of Xiaguan cannot stand in front of him. Wu Song cannot rush far and will be killed by the Xia army, but this time is enough to disturb the Xia cavalry. If there is a chaos, our cavalry can take advantage of the situation to attack and drive away, break through the defense line in one fell swoop, attack the rear of the city, and use infantry to surround and suppress the remaining soldiers. We can then seize the opportunity to drive the remaining troops of Maledu to Xianbokou and attack Weming'a. With such a strong formation, we will surely be able to capture Xianbokou without any effort!"

Zhang Kai's eyes flashed and he said with emotion: "Shi Dao is really a great talent. I am not as good as him. It's just a pity for a strong general like Luda."

Master Zhongdao also sighed and said in a low voice: "Who made him defect to the eunuchs? What a pity..."

I will be on the list after 12 o'clock in the evening. I hope book friends will vote for a certain pig at that time. Thank you~
