Chapter 49 Ambush(1/2)
Wucheng.
The Wanping military grain transport team slowly drove out, heading north.
Although Wanping Sect is a peasant uprising in the form of religion.
But after experiencing the battles in the three prefectures of Tongzhou, the military system has gradually become mature.
Of course, it was also because of the long battles and victories.
The entire Wanping Army is relatively lax now.
The detection efficiency of scouts is reduced, the food transportation routes are fixed, and the defense of the camp is weak...
The grain pressing officer of the grain transport team is also relatively relaxed.
I completed the task while looking at the scenery and chatting along the way.
There are not many people in the entire grain transport team.
There were about a dozen cars in front and behind, and there were nearly a hundred sergeants and civilians.
The head grain press officer is a strong man wearing a yellow turban.
He holds a steel sword and rides on a high horse, flanked by two low-level officers of the Wanping Army wearing yellow armor.
The three of them walked and talked all the way.
"Master Chen, I heard that Luo Shuai's troops have already entered the territory of Jiangning Mansion and will besiege Jiangning Mansion in the near future."
Qushuai Luo Shang is the second line of troops of Wanping Army in Jiangning Mansion.
Previously, Hu Rong was the main offensive force along the way.
Unexpectedly, Hu Rong was trapped in Pingcheng and was in a dilemma.
But Luo Shang's journey was a series of battles and victories.
Heading all the way north from the south, the vanguard troops were the first to arrive at Jiangningfu City.
Luo Shang's army was like a snowball, fighting more and more.
Now it is said that 200,000 troops are besieging Jiangning Mansion.
"Shuai Luo really knows the army well. He basically didn't encounter much resistance along the way. He marched unhindered all the way to Jiang Ning's house."
"If he can kill Jiangning Mansion on his way, then Pingcheng will become an isolated city and will be destroyed without attack."
The yellow-haired man obviously knew more than the two Qi-blood warriors.
Talking about the whole situation, I also have my own opinions.
And the two Qi-blood warriors also echoed.
One of them smiled and said: "But Hu Shuai can't wait any longer. Xiaopingcheng has been under siege for a long time. If Luo Shuai and his troops are allowed to take Jiangning Mansion, where will our Hu Shuai's face be?"
Several people laughed after hearing this.
This is indeed a problem.
The grain transport team went all the way north and after crossing the Baishui River, they came to the ferry town to rest.
On the second day, we took our time and entered the Xiaoyun Mountain area.
Xiaoyun Mountain is shrouded in fog.
It looks like a vast sea of clouds, so it has the reputation of "Yunshan".
The mountain is not high, but it is also very beautiful.
At noon, the fog dissipated, and only then could the exposed cloud rocks on the top of the mountain be seen.
After the official road enters the mountainous area, it becomes narrow and rugged.
Fortunately, we brought along a lot of people transporting grain, supporting the grain truck and moving forward slowly.
"After this place, the jungle becomes denser, which is a good place for an ambush."
During the march, another Qi-blood sergeant said this.
Hearing this, the yellow man said disdainfully: "Now Pingcheng is like a boat swaying in the wind and rain, guard it with all your strength."
"If you give them ten thousand courage, they won't dare to separate their troops and leave the city at this time."
The words just fell.
Suddenly I heard a loud noise above my head.
The horses in the grain team were frightened and stood upright with their hooves raised.
I saw many boulders rolling down the mountain roads on both sides.
At the same time, countless flying arrows were shot out from the grass on both sides of the official road.
“Whoosh whoosh whoosh—”
Enemy attack!
Everyone in the food team had no time to react, and many people fell into a pool of blood with several arrows in their bodies.
"Where did the enemy come from?"
"Run quickly!"
"Help!"
The civilian husbands of the Wanping Army were all temporarily recruited civilian husbands.
Seeing such a bloody scene, everyone was so frightened that they collapsed to the ground and ran away with their heads in their hands.
"Stop running around, gather together and fight!"
The yellow man reined in his horse and shouted, wanting to reorganize the grain team.
As a pressure and grain officer, he never expected to encounter an enemy attack in this place.
Who will attack them?
The government army, how could the government army leave the city?
Could it be bandits?
He was frightened and angry, and drew his sword to deflect all the arrows that were fired at him.
A warrior in the realm of strength can no longer be shot to death by just a few flying arrows. Even though all the archers are attacking him, it is still difficult to injure him at all.
"Quick, come to me!"
The yellow man shouted again and gathered some scattered Wanping Army sergeants.
Some of the sergeants used wooden shields for defense, and some improvised materials, erecting the overturned grain carts and using wooden boards as defensive shields to withstand the flying arrows.
But the sergeants still fell into a pool of blood one by one.
"kill!"
After three rounds of arrow rain.
Cao Su took the lead and led his troops to fight out.
In the eyes of the yellow man, he saw a very young warrior.
The men in green robes and black armor, carrying long swords, rushed towards them like tigers coming down the mountain.
It turned out to be really the government army!
The yellow-haired man looked in disbelief.
And there are nearly a hundred government troops.
The government army's attack was quite methodical. They attacked from all directions, with a commander leading about ten sergeants in each direction.
Every escape corner for everyone in the grain team was blocked.
Cao Su was not prepared to let any of them escape.
There are only forty or fifty sergeants in the Wanping Army, and most of them are ordinary sergeants.
There are only two Qi-blood warriors.
"Master Chen, we are outnumbered and outnumbered, how about we withdraw?"
When the two Qi-blood warriors saw the posture of the government army, they had no fighting spirit at all.
With a full force of 100 men, the government's army would need at least 300 people to defeat them based on their strength.
boom!
Cao Su first came into contact with a sergeant of the Wanping Army.
Han Dao split the sergeant's wooden shield with one strike.
The wooden shield fell apart instantly.
In another flash, the sergeant fell into a pool of blood, clutching his open chest, twitching a few times and then lost his breath.
