Although Pu'an (today's Panxian County, Guizhou Province) is the boundary of Guizhou, it borders Qujing, Yunnan. It is separated by hundreds of miles of mountain roads, which is difficult to navigate. This bumpy and tiring journey made not only Wang Xiyuan but also the soldiers a little unbearable. Dakui had no choice but to order Wu Ya and his two men on the bench to take ten soldiers and climb to the middle of the mountain to stand sentry to prevent pursuing troops.
The team took a rest in the woods on the side of the mountain road. Fortunately, there was some dry food left in Sanbao Village. Due to the large number of people, only five people could share one bun. These soldiers were all in their prime, and each of them had a small ration. But where can I get enough to eat?
Dakui ate some dry food and wanted to drink water, but he didn't realize that the water bag was already empty. When he just fed Wang Xiyuan, it was the last bit of water.
Dakui looked around and found that there were weeds and shrubs everywhere. At this moment, he was deep in the barren mountains and mountains, but he couldn't find water anywhere. He was running all the way without even stopping to drink water. Everyone must be thirsty at this moment. Smoke coming from throat.
At this moment, there was a "whoosh" in the air and a scream, but it was an arrow fired by the bench and others. Hearing the sound, Dakui stood up and shouted: "Get ready for battle, there are pursuers." His subordinate soldiers stood up one after another and each held their weapons. Wait for orders.
In less than a moment, Bench Wu Ya came back with his soldiers to report that there were two thousand pursuers, all light cavalry, and they were less than ten miles away from here.
"What's the terrain like here?" Dakui asked urgently.
Bench breathed: "Go east and go down the hillside. There is a road at the foot of the mountain that can go straight to the southeast." Bench said and pointed out: "This is a mountain top, with a high mountain on the left and a steep slope on the right. "
When Dakui heard this, he made an immediate decision: "The troops will stay, Wu Ya will lead others to escort Mr. Wang and leave first, hurry up~,"
If the interruption continues, there will be chaos. No one has any objections. After hearing the order, all the soldiers went separately. King Xiyuan of Wu Ya and three hundred soldiers mounted their horses and took the lead, leaving only Dakui and two hundred personal guards to stop the enemy. , the enemy has 2,000 soldiers and our own has 200. We need to use one block and ten to delay the time, so that Wang Xiyuan and his subordinates can safely evacuate the dangerous area.
Dakui then ordered: "Gou Sheng led a hundred soldiers to set traps and locks on the east slope, and then he followed. The rest got on their horses and followed me." After saying that, he got on his horse first, and the hundred soldiers followed Dakui and followed the path of Wang Xiyuan and others. Down the mountain….
Guanbu led two thousand cavalry at a galloping pace, and the dust raised up wherever the men and horses passed covered the sky and blocked the sun.
While they were galloping, there was a fork in the road ahead, and Gubulema waved his hand to signal the large group of people to stop marching.
One road forked to the north and the other to the east. Canbu couldn't help shouting: "Quickly find out where the Ming army is going." As soon as he finished speaking, a horseman ran out of the team. When he reached the fork in the road first, the Yuan soldier jumped off his horse and ran to I checked the intersection on the north side carefully on the ground, then ran to the east intersection to check again, and then got on my horse and came back to report to the publication.
"General, hundreds of Ming troops went eastward. It's been half an hour since I saw the traces." After the soldier finished speaking, he pointed to the road heading east: "This road leads to the mountains. After passing the mountains, you will reach Pu'an." Yes, but the mountain road is narrow and very rugged and difficult to navigate."
It turns out that the Yuan soldiers who explored the path were Tan Ma, specializing in the art of path exploration and tracking.
Canbu smiled coldly and said: "Since it is difficult, they must not be able to go far." He shouted sternly: "All the officers and soldiers listen to the order. The battle achievements are right in front of you. If you kill someone, you will be rewarded with ten taels of silver. If you capture the enemy, you will be rewarded with a hundred taels of silver plus more." "A woman," when the two thousand soldiers behind Guanbu heard these words, they cheered like hungry wolves who had seen blood.
Since Genghis Khan Temujin established the Yuan Dynasty, the army of the Yuan Dynasty has been divided into three categories: the Su Wei Army, the Town Garrison Army and the Tuntian Army. Guarding various state capitals and frontier fortresses, the field army only had time to fight and nothing to farm.
But no matter what kind of army it is, women are not allowed in the army. The announcement actually promised to reward women with silver. This is tantamount to hanging a piece of meat among the wolves. You can see that you can't eat it. If you want to eat the meat, it depends on who Jump high.
The large group of people set out again, rumbling toward Tianmu Mountain. Although the mountain road was narrow, it could still accommodate five horses walking parallel. Two thousand people mounted the mountain, and the team formed a long snake formation.
Guanbu led his team to chase the Ming army. He saw that the mountain was extremely dangerous, but he didn't take it to heart. He brought 2,000 men and horses, while the Ming army only had 500 people. There was such a disparity in strength. Moreover, after running around for days, How can the Ming army survive in the long run if they can't sustain food and grass? I think the Ming army will definitely be vulnerable. Let alone a confrontation, even if two thousand troops are squeezed, the Ming army can be squeezed to death.
Turning around the foot of a mountain, there is a mountain ridge in front of you. The forest road suddenly becomes wider. Although there have been wars for years, trade between Yunnan and Guizhou continues. All the porcelain, silk and other items used in Yunnan flow in from Guizhou, so the mountain road here is convenient. It is an important trade route. Now that the Yuan Dynasty has shown its decline, various places in the Central Plains and south of the Yangtze River have been occupied by the Ming Dynasty. The king of Liang has guarded the Yunnan, Guizhou, and Sichuan provinces. There are also heavy troops guarding the city passes. He has announced it as Zhongqing Road, Qujing. There are tens of thousands of garrison troops in the town. Since they have received a message from King Liang to intercept and kill them, they cannot neglect it.
Now that the Ming army escaped under his own eyes, Canbu felt that this was a great shame and humiliation. Now that the road was wide, there was no reason to march slowly. Canbuxing raised his voice and issued an order in the army: "The whole army obeys the order and marches quickly without any consequences." error,"
The two thousand elite cavalrymen under them all loudly accepted the order. The team slowly increased their speed until they were galloping at full speed. The two thousand men and horses rushed towards the mountain ridge like a torrent. After a while, the terrain turned into a gentle slope downwards. As far as the eye could see, there were enough The several-mile-long mountain road was full of horse hoof prints left by the Ming army. When he saw it in the team, he quickly ordered a full-speed pursuit. The horse's hooves flew with astonishing momentum.
At this speed, I can catch up with the Ming army in half an hour, wipe out all of them, and then go to the King of Liang to receive the reward. The King of Liang has always been generous and generous with his subordinates, so I think the reward of gold and silver is indispensable. Announcement is bumpy While riding on the horse, I had endless reveries in my mind, as if gold, silver, jade, silk, and graceful beauties were right in front of my eyes.
Just when I was thinking about it, the front army suddenly fell into chaos, and then I saw the front soldiers flipping over on their backs. They were charging up the slope. How could they stop their horses in vain? The Yuan army cavalry in front fell, and the cavalry behind them just caught up. , he fell down and his horse was trampled for a while, and countless Yuan soldiers were killed and injured.
The Mongolian cavalry traveled all over the world at that time and had its own advantages. When there was trouble in the front, they tried their best to rein in their horses and go around in the rear. Who would have thought that there were many horse traps dug on the gentle slopes of this several-mile-long mountain road, which was even more hateful. The strange thing is that these pits are not big, only the size of a disk. If a horse rushes down the mountain quickly, if it steps into a pit, it will definitely break its legs.
General Canbu of the Yuan Dynasty forcibly reined in his horse and rushed diagonally up the hillside on the right. He finally stopped his horse. Looking back, he saw that the mountain road was littered with wailing corpses. The number of soldiers trampled and injured was countless, and there were hundreds of injured horses. .
It turned out that Dakui led his troops to dig holes here. Because of the emergency, they could only dig small holes and dig them as deep as possible. After two hundred people dug four hundred holes and cleverly covered them up, they evacuated the place.
Seeing his men wailing all over the place, Guanbu was furious and ordered his people to count the wounded and injured horses. He never expected that there were more than 700 dead and wounded soldiers, including wounded horses. Guanbu gritted his teeth and left a few people to clean up the mess. , then continued the pursuit with a thousand cavalry.
This time I learned the lesson well. There was Tan Ma leading the way, but the large group of people followed behind Tan Ma and moved forward carefully. I didn't dare to let the horses run at full speed anymore. It wasn't until I got down the hill that I discovered that the horse trap was just in that place.
Looking back at the hillside behind him and then at the foot of the mountain in front of him, Quanbu shouted again: "This is the only trap for the Ming army. All the soldiers rush with me." Several of Qunbu's soldiers had already been holding back their anger and just wanted to chase. The army of the Ming Dynasty fought hard to relieve their hatred. A thousand cavalry galloped like the wind with their whips raised. The sound of horse hooves echoed in the distant mountains, and hundreds of birds flew in the mountains and forests. The momentum was extremely frightening.
Unfortunately, the house leaked and it was raining continuously. Just as they were about to turn around the foot of the mountain, just like before, the front army heard the sounds of war horses neighing. In an instant, the cavalry at the forefront fell to the ground again, and Gianbu had to give the order to stop the march again.
Before Guanbu could turn around, there was a sudden sound of bowstrings in the forest, and there was a sudden rain of arrows, and the sound of "whisper" could not be heard incessantly. Knowing that he was not good at it, Guanbu hurriedly turned over and dismounted to avoid the arrows. The soldiers beside him were wailing and screaming from time to time. Seeing that someone was shot by an arrow and fell from his horse, after these two incidents, it was announced that the number of Yuan soldiers under his command was less than 500.
Just when Ganbu was panicking, he heard a loud roar in the forest: "Zhang Dakui is here, take your life." As soon as the voice fell, he saw Dakui charging out of the forest with his horse and gun, and two hundred soldiers behind him reversed the verdict and mounted their horses to face the chaos. The soldiers of the Yuan Dynasty will pass by.
Ganbu held back his anger, and now he saw someone. He mounted his sword again and rushed towards Dakui.
"Young man, it's no use to hurt someone with a hidden arrow. Come on, come on, grandpa will accompany you..." Before Ganbu could finish his words, a stone flew towards him and hit Ganbu's mouth with a 'pop' sound.
Dakui's flying stone skill was really powerful. The stone actually hit Guanbu's mouth, suppressing the rest of his words. Perhaps the stone was a little bigger, about the size of a fist. Guanbu was seriously injured this time, and his mouth was full of teeth. Half broken.
Guanbu was worthy of being a fierce general. He actually faced off against Da Kui with a stone in his mouth. There was a loud bang, and the swords and guns clashed with each other. The two horses kicked off each other. Guanbu couldn't turn around to fight again, so he lay on the horse's back first. He reached out and pulled out the stone from his mouth.
Da Kui took advantage of the situation and rushed into the crowd of Yuan soldiers. He swung his iron gun and threw out a cloud of gunfire. The red cloud passed by and a pile of corpses were lying on the ground. When Da Kui Lema turned around, he saw that the soldier had a mouth full of blood and looked like a ghost. He raised his sword and killed again. , although Ganbu's subordinates experienced a shocking change, they turned around in an instant. Seeing Da Kui alone, they all prepared their weapons to fight.
Among the thousands of troops, Dakui was still able to come and go with ease, not to mention that there were only hundreds of soldiers in this area. Without waiting for Zhou Yuan soldiers to get close, Dakui turned around and swept his iron spear across. A Yuan soldier who rushed behind him was actually blocked by Dakui and knocked off his horse.
