The horrified Yang Gongqing didn't have time to think carefully about how the enemy came over, so he instinctively roared: "The enemy is attacking! The whole army will fight."
However, before he finished speaking, there was a crash of bowstrings in the dense forest, and countless sharp arrows poured out.
At this time, the distance between the two sides was only thirty steps, and the arrow rain was coming in an instant, shining with a cold light under the scorching summer sun.
"Protect the general!" Several personal guards rushed to Yang Gongqing's side, risking their lives.
At the edge of the mountain top, the Zheng army who was ambushing was caught off guard. Countless people were hit by arrows in the back and fell to the ground screaming.
As for Yang Gongqing, because of his gorgeous armor and obvious goals, he was the focus of the Tang army's arrow rain.
In just an instant, several personal guards who were protecting each other turned into hedgehogs and died tragically on the spot. Even Yang Gongqing was hit by several arrows.
"Kill!" After a sneak attack with a rain of arrows, the Tang army immediately abandoned their bows and waved their weapons to cover up the attack.
Because they were fighting in the mountains and forests, it was inconvenient to turn long swords, so the Tang army switched to short weapons, such as horizontal knives, maces, maces, and meteor hammers. They were all like wolves and tigers. After attacking Zheng Jun,
back.
The Zheng army was unprepared. Although they had the upper hand, they were killed and corpses were scattered all over the field.
The reputation of Xuan Jia Bing, the strongest army in the world, is well-deserved.
Seeing this, Yang Gongqing pushed away the body of the guard with all his strength, pulled out a water-polished gold whip from behind, and smashed the arrow shaft in his chest with just one sweep.
Although he was hit by an arrow, he was not injured.
As a general of the State of Zheng, Yang Gongqing naturally wore the best Mingguang armor.
Even if an ordinary arrow hits the target, there are only two results, either it will fly away or it will hang on, and it will not hurt him at all.
"Don't panic! The Tang army is small in number, so beat them down." Yang Gongqing was so angry that he whipped his head and roared.
Although he was surprised by the enemy, he did not panic.
The Xuanjia soldiers are indeed the strongest soldiers in the world, but the Zheng army is not weak either.
The 28 soldiers under Yang Gongqing's command, totaling more than 10,000 people, were all the Xiaoguo Guard Central Forbidden Army of the Sui Dynasty in the past. They can be described as first-rate elites.
Therefore, he has the confidence to have a chance with Xuan Jia Bing.
At this moment, a Tang army general waved his cooked copper mace and fought hard.
Wherever they passed, it was like a tiger entering a flock of sheep. Zheng Jun who blocked the road was either hit with brains bursting out, or bones broken and tendons broken, and there was no one who could defeat him.
In the blink of an eye, the general of the Tang army killed dozens of people in a row, and suddenly appeared in front of Yang Gongqing with great majesty.
"It's you, Qin Qiong and Qin Shubao!" Yang Gongqing recognized the person instantly.
"General Yang, long time no see."
Qin Qiong clasped his fists and said hello, secretly admiring him: the military adviser said that there must be General Zheng here, and it turned out to be a clever plan!
You must know that Qin Qiong once served under Wang Shichong, so he was familiar with Yang Gongqing.
In fact, because Yang Gongqing is loyal and upright, and has the same temperament as Qin Qiong, the two of them have some friendship and can be regarded as friends.
Now, old friends meet each other, but each has his own master. For a moment, the mood is really mixed.
"You and I, brothers, finally meet on the battlefield. The moment you left Tangying, I knew this day would come." Yang Gongqing's tone was low and sad.
"Brother Yang Haihan, Wang Shichong is not the master of the Ming Dynasty, so I have to leave." Recalling the past, Qin Qiong's face was complicated.
At this moment, shouts of killing were also heard from the south peak. Yang Gongqing sighed in his heart, knowing that his plan had completely failed.
"That's all, everyone has their own ambitions, and there is no need to mention the past. I just want to ask, who saw through my plan? Was it you, Shubao, or someone else?" Yang Gongqing was unwilling to lose and wanted to know more clearly.
"It's our military advisor. He had anticipated your plan to kill two birds with one stone!" Qin Qiong was somewhat proud.
"Military advisor?" Yang Gongqing was stunned for a moment, then he realized what he was doing and blurted out: "Is it that Guigu disciple Xia Yu? Well, it is indeed a good method to use the tactics to your advantage!"
He was worthy of being Wang Shichong's top general. As soon as Yang Gongqing changed his mind, he already understood where he had lost.
He underestimated the heroes of the world! He secretly regretted it.
At this time, Qin Qiong's eyes froze: "Brother Yang is well-informed. Do you have room in our Tang camp?"
Xia Yu had just arrived and had been stationed in Cijian without fighting Zheng Jun. Logically speaking, Zheng Jun could not have known it so quickly.
Therefore, Qin Qiong immediately became alert and suspicious.
As soon as the words came out of Yang Gongqing's mouth, he knew that he had made a mistake, but he just smiled lightly and did not hide it: "It is normal for the two armies to fight and use their own time. The King of Qin is very resourceful, and I must have put in a lot of effort in our Zheng camp."
Qin Qiong also laughed when he heard this.
Indeed, when the Sui Dynasty lost its deer, the whole world chased it away. The general situation was not determined in one day, and there were many princes who bet on both ends.
As far as he knew, there were many people in the Tang camp among the Zheng army, and Du Ruhui was no idler.
"Brother Yang, Zhu Can's beastly behavior has angered our military advisor and issued a killing order. Qin Qiong did not dare to deprive the public of his private life, so he was offended today."
Qin Qiong clasped his fists again, with a serious look on his face.
He did not mention surrender. Firstly, Xia Yu had an order to kill without mercy. Secondly, he also knew that Yang Gongqing was loyal to Wang Shichong and would not surrender.
"It should be so. Today, you and I, brothers, must be loyal and righteous. Life and death are left to God."
Yang Gongqing looked ashamed, Zhu Can's bestial behavior made him feel shameless, but he couldn't explain anything, so he just grasped the water-milled golden whip and prepared to fight.
It is said that Xuanjia soldiers are unparalleled in the world, but he, Yang Gongqing, does not believe this evil.
If the ambush fails, it's amazing that both sides have fought once. Who dares to say that he will definitely lose? The battle is fought, not trumped up!
For a time, the former brothers were on the verge of breaking out after just reminiscing about the past.
"kill!"
Suddenly, Qin Qiong let out a low roar, his majestic body leapt forward, and the heavy wrought copper mace crashed down like a mountain bearing down on him.
Yang Gongqing was not afraid either. He raised fire to the sky and whip to fight.
The two bodyguards flanking them saw that Jia had taken the initiative, so they swarmed over and started fighting.
"when!"
In an instant, the whip and mace intersected, and sparks flew everywhere.
Yang Gongqing felt a huge force coming towards him, and he took three steps back in a row. Qi and blood surged in his chest and abdomen, and he almost didn't vomit out any blood.
The fierce general of Qin Qiong's world is famous throughout the ages and is by no means ordinary!
"Uncle Bao has a good trick, come again!" Yang Gongqing was not convinced, he roared angrily, and the golden whip danced like a dragon, actually coming to attack.
Qin Qiong didn't say much, and the cooked copper mace stirred up evil wind, tit for tat.
For a while, the two men were whipping each other back and forth, and they fought for ten times in a row.
After all, Qin Qiong is one of the most powerful generals in the world, and his military strength is beyond the limit. Although Yang Gongqing is not weak, he is still gradually at a disadvantage.
At this time, at the ridge of the mountain top, the battle situation became increasingly fierce.
After all, Yang Gongqing's troops were extraordinary. The last elite of the Sui Dynasty, after experiencing the initial panic, they quickly adjusted their deployment and joined forces with the Xuanjia soldiers.
"Hold it, hold it all!" Zhang Tongren waved his heavy iron sword and came forward to supervise the battle.
Zheng Jun also showed the bravery and ferocity of the Central Forbidden Army of the Sui Dynasty. Relying on the numerical advantage, he was able to firmly hold his position.
On the top of the mountain, in the dense forest, the terrain is complex. Both armies have no formations to speak of, they are just fighting in a mass.
This is a standard chaotic battle. Whoever can hold a breath will have the last laugh.
Seeing the anxiety of the war, Cheng Yaojin was annoyed.
He got into trouble last night and was knocked into a manor by Xia Yu. He was already furious, but the tragic event in Yan'an made his eyes full of blood.
At this time, seeing that he could not defeat the enemy, Cheng Yaojin became angry and bullied the bullfight.
"Follow me, Old Cheng, and kill these idiots." The reckless guy didn't make a move. He held a short-handled mace and screamed strangely as he rushed straight towards Zhang Tongren.
Several Zheng soldiers were intercepted along the way, but they were all beaten to pieces by Cheng Yaojin with a stick, including their armor. Their deaths were extremely miserable.
Such a fierce spirit cannot be resisted by ordinary soldiers like Zheng.
Seeing this, the morale of the Xuanjia soldiers was greatly boosted. They followed the gap created by Cheng Yaojin and rushed forward. In an instant, they were close to Zhang Tongren.
When the two armies are facing each other, taking the central army directly and capturing the thieves first is the specialty of Xuanjia soldiers.
Cheng Yaojin's move was just a repeat of the same trick.
Seeing Cheng Yaojin coming to kill, Zhang Tongren was a little panicked. Don't forget, Cheng Yaojin was also an old general of Wang Shichong, so the two knew each other well.
Zhang Tongren knew very well how brave this fool was, so how could he not be afraid of him!
However, Yang Gongqing was entangled by Qin Qiong and could not escape. If he turned around and fled, Zheng's army would collapse immediately.
The bravery of a general is no lie.
"Hey, Cheng Yaojin, you traitor who betrays your master, don't be so arrogant. I'll meet you someday." Zhang Tongren plucked up the courage, yelled and cursed, and faced him with a sword.
When Cheng Yaojin heard this, he was completely outraged: Damn it, if you hit someone, you don't want to slap them in the face. We only have this little braid, and you're still holding on to it, right?
The old feelings in my heart were instantly forgotten, and I just wanted to smash this child into a meat pie with a stick.
