One side of the stone house is close to the side wall of the deep stream. Through the fifty windows specially left in the stone wall on this side of the stone house, you can have an unobstructed view of the deep stream from top to bottom.
The stone house can not only serve as a reconnaissance and warning, but also can attack deep streams from high places. Unless you are a master who has broken the skill, if you are in a deep stream, you will have absolutely no power to fight back and will only be beaten.
Naturally, Wang Junlin also stored a large number of arrows in this stone house. There were even a large number of head-sized rocks placed outside the stone house.
In addition, countless traps were laid out in the woods that must be passed through on the way to Blackstone Mountain.
After everything was constructed and set up, Wang Junlin took everyone to inspect and visit one by one, explained the usage and precautions one by one, and then divided the labor for each trap.
At this moment, the sergeant standing on guard in the stone house on the hillside sounded a warning sound. Everyone turned to look and saw a "Ghost Eye" expert next to the stone house on the hillside holding a small red flag and waving it left and right.
After everyone else looked at it, they all looked thoughtful, and then they all had expressions of understanding.
Shen Guang said: "It's our spies who are back."
Soon, a dusty spy walked out of the exit of the deep stream with a curious look on his face, and was carefully led along a specific route to Wang Junlin and others by the people who had been waiting there.
The spies came to Wang Junlin, knelt down on one knee and saluted, and then said: "I would like to report to the Marquis that Yang Hushi and his five thousand troops are less than a hundred miles away from here."
Although everyone was very confident in Wang Junlin and the many preparations everyone had just made, they still couldn't help but look at Wang Junlin after hearing this, and couldn't help but look at Wang Junlin.
Wang Junlin looked calm, continued to ask a few questions, and then let the spy go down to rest.
He looked calm, glanced at everyone, and said: "Five thousand people and horses are nothing. With our half-day preparation, these five thousand people will be dead or alive when they arrive."
"Don't worry, Lord Marquis, if these five thousand troops dare to come, we will make sure they never come back." Shen Guang said solemnly, and others agreed.
Wang Junlin smiled slightly and said: "Okay, according to my previous arrangements, everyone goes down and gets ready."
After everyone agreed, they began to make further preparations.
An hour later, just when Wang Junlin and others were ready and almost impatient to wait, the sound of intensive horse hooves came from the other side of the mountain through the deep stream.
Yang Hushi is nearly forty years old. He is the third-ranking figure in the Yongzhou military and is Yang Su's cousin. He was born in the Hongnong Yang family, one of the top families in the world. He is also very skilled in martial arts. The battle with the Western Turks last year was also
He participated in it from beginning to end and had quite a lot of military exploits. Then under Yang Su's operation, he became the Zhonglang General of the Yamen, the general manager of Yongzhou March. This is a position similar to the chief of staff of the military region in later generations. It is also a high-power position. The general manager Yu Juluo
If he were there, he would not be able to mobilize any soldiers except his own soldiers. However, in the absence of Yu Juluo and the long history Liu Fang was seriously injured and recovering from illness, theoretically, he would have the ability to control and mobilize part of the Yongzhou March.
The General Administrative Office has direct authority over the army, but Wang Tong had previously reported to the court to ask Wang Junlin to temporarily take charge of the General Administrative Office. It is not known whether there is anything fishy in this.
Yang Hushi was riding on his horse at this time, looking at the mountains and deep streams in front of him. He remembered that his uncle Yang Su had written a letter a few days ago and specifically stated that as long as he killed Wang Junlin, his uncle would find a way to transfer Liu Fang back to the capital on the grounds that he was old and frail and let him Taking over the position of Chang Shi and becoming the second most powerful person in the Yongzhou military, with one person and more than 100,000 people, he couldn't help but feel a little happy and proud in his heart.
These five thousand people are elites. They are the only army that he has worked hard to fully control under Yu Juluo's eyes during the more than a year since he became Zhonglang General. Other armies can also be mobilized today, but he cannot I can guarantee that those generals will still take action after meeting Wang Junlin and dare to take action. After all, Wang Junlin is a legend in the Yongzhou Army and the idol of many officers and soldiers. His prestige is second only to Yu Juluo. As the general manager of Yu Juluo's master and apprentice, it is not in vain for him to have such scruples.
The terrain of the mountain stream was strange, so Yang Hushi was naturally wary. He first sent two scouts in to investigate the situation. Not long after the two scouts entered, they were captured by Shen Guang and brought to Wang Junlin. He learned that he and others were going to deal with him. It turned out to be the poisonous general, and the two scouts were immediately shocked. After being coerced and induced by Wang Junlin himself, he finally fed them a poison pill each and sent the two scouts back.
The two scouts returned to Yang Hushi and said: "General Qi, I didn't find anything unusual. I just found two hundred enemy troops stationed at the exit of the mountain stream. Judging from the situation, the enemy troops probably don't know that we have arrived."
When Yang Hushi heard this, he breathed a sigh of relief. He waved his hand and led the people into the mountain stream. However, what he didn't notice was that the two scouts were walking slower and slower. The others knew that they had just inquired about information and had exhausted their physical strength, so they didn't care. .
The width of the deep stream can only be passed by two horses in parallel. Yang Hushi took the lead, followed by 5,000 armored sergeants on horses who skillfully divided into two rows, and then slowly poured into the deep stream like flowing water.
After one stick of incense, Yang Hushi had led five thousand people through half of the deep stream.
Not long after, we passed the turning point in the deep stream. After walking a little further, we were less than 500 meters away from the exit at the other end of the deep stream.
Yang Hushi raised his hand to stop the army, glanced at the exit in front, and said: "Captain He, lead a thousand men under your command to attack the exit. Remember to fight quickly. Before the opponent's main support arrives, we must attack We must capture the mouth of the mountain stream."
"I humbly obey my orders." A captain stepped forward, saluted Yang Hushi with clasped fists, and then led the troops forward with drawn swords.
At this moment, a rumbling sound was heard, and a black boulder the size of a millstone fell from the sky above the bend of the deep stream.
Everyone looked up.
"Ah! What is that, a boulder, hide now!"
"Back off, you bastards, hurry up, ah——"
First, there were screams of exclamation one after another in the deep stream, followed by the screams of people and the neighing of pain from the horses, which suddenly resounded throughout the deep stream.
On the spot, dozens of people and horses were smashed into pieces by the boulder and buried under the boulder.
A few breaths later, at their previous entrance, huge boulders had been piled up more than ten meters high, completely blocking their retreat. The only exit at the moment was to the entrance of the mountain stream in the direction of Black Rock Mountain.
Yang Hushi and his five thousand men were riding closely together and were walking forward. The people at the corner looked at the boulders falling above their heads. The people in the front were so frightened that they desperately urged their horses to run forward and stay back. The people reined in their horses crazily and backed away.
