Monument Yangmen

Chapter 834
That night.

The stars are shining brightly, and the moonlight is shining all over the river, sparkling.

The moon shadows overlap on the lake, as if the moon fairy is dancing in the water shadows.

However, such a quiet and beautiful scenery is covered by moving human heads at this moment.

25 soldiers and horses crossed the river all night, and the scene was very spectacular.

It stretches for dozens of miles along the river.

All the fishing boats in the surrounding ten miles and eight villages were gathered together.

Even so, it is still not enough to supply 25 soldiers and horses to cross the river.

Since the river was not turbulent, Yang Ning finally decided that part of the crossbowmen, shield soldiers, horse troops, etc. would cross the river by boat, while a large number of infantry would go directly across the water.

The scouts who paddled across the opposite bank ahead of time would drag a chain across the river as they passed.

The infantry only need to hang their belts on the iron chains, and they can easily cross the river.

This time, the soldiers and horses led by Yang Ning, except for some of them were from the north, who were not good at wading, most of the remaining soldiers and horses were from Jiangning Mansion.

The water system in Jiangning Mansion is complicated, and most of the soldiers lived on the water before they enlisted in the army, so the water quality is good.

Thousands of iron cables span the river, and the scene is very spectacular.

Yang Ning stood by the river, watching such a grand scene, his heart was full of pride.

Under the expectant eyes of all the soldiers, Yang Ning waved his hand.

"Cross the river!"

present.

Thousands of soldiers jumped into the water and crossed the river along the iron chain, and a small number of them took the ferry to the other side of the river.

In a blink of an eye, more than 1 soldiers arrived on the other side of the river.

Behind them, there is still a steady stream of soldiers coming.

Ten thousand...

Twenty thousand...

Thirty thousand...

……

One hundred thousand...

More and more soldiers of the Song Army crossed the river.

Lu Duan, who was hiding in the distance and kept watching the Song army crossing the river, secretly swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and hesitantly asked Yang Er next to him in a low voice, "Second general... is it almost the same..."

Hiding in a bush, Yang Er looked at the increasing number of Song soldiers on the far side of the river, and whispered to Lu Duan, "It's not enough... The Song army crossed the river in such a hurry, we didn't have time to prepare.

If you give me a few more days, I will definitely be able to build a dam on the river and flood the entire army.

There is no time to build the dam now, and these Song troops have to be defeated in one fell swoop, so they can only let more people come over. "

Yang Er subconsciously clenched his fists and said in a low voice: "Let 15 people cross the river, and then we will make trouble again. Let's see if Yang Ning is Gu Tou or Gu Ting..."

Lu Duan nodded slowly, subconsciously reminded: "Second General, you are sure to defeat the 15 Song Army who crossed the river..."

Yang San, who was lying in the grass with the scouts, seemed to see Lu Duan's worries, he smiled lightly and said, "Brother Lu, don't worry, our brothers have already made preparations, and we will definitely let them come and go."

After a pause, Yang San said again: "However, our brothers are not bloodthirsty people. It is impossible to kill all of these 15 people. When the time comes, we will have to rely on Brother Lu to lobby them. Let them not hold on.

If they really refuse to surrender, then we can only deal with it hard.

They are all men from the Han family. I don't want the situation to really go to that point. "

Lu Duan nodded heavily, and promised: "Once the Song army is about to be defeated, Lu will definitely rush to the Song army and say to surrender to them. The second and third generals' benevolence, Lu will definitely convey to them."

While they were talking, another [-] Song troops crossed the river.

As soon as Yang Er saw that it was almost done, he quickly turned around, squatted on the ground, and whispered to the messenger: "Hurry up and inform the brothers upstream that you can start."

Turning around, he said to Yang San: "Once we make trouble, the Song army will be in chaos. You quickly go and command the brothers who are waiting three miles away. As soon as there is a trouble here, you will bring your brothers to kill them, and cover your ears with lightning speed." To subdue these 15 Song troops."

"clear."

Yang Er, Yang San and the others moved quickly.

But Song Jun, who was crossing the river, had no idea that he was in danger.

now.

Yang Ning stood on a fishing boat, with his hands behind his back, his head raised, and he said proudly, "I'm afraid the Yang family's bandits don't know about it until now. We have already crossed the river without anyone noticing...hehehe... ..."

Standing behind Yang Ning, the bowed general heard the words, and said with a playful smile: "My lord is far-sighted and wise, how can the Yang family's bandit army be comparable? I am afraid that all the bandits in the bandit army combined may not be as good as your lord." Great people."

Hearing this, Yang Ning felt as refreshed as if he had eaten ginseng fruit, but his face was indifferent, and he said with a plain education: "I can't say that, although the bandit army is unbearable, there are still one or two talents.

For example, Lu Duan, who joined the army in the bandit army, is a very good talent.

Although bewitched by the thieves, he betrayed me, Da Song.

But when he was in my Song Dynasty, he still had some weight.

You go and order, after defeating the bandit army, capture this person and send him to the official first.

I need to train him well to see if he has any plans to abandon the dark and turn to the bright.

If not, give him a decent death. "

Pian Jiang immediately said with a respectful face: "I understand..."

The fishing boat was rippling and slowly rowed into the heart of the river.

Jiang Chao, who also followed the iron chain to the center of the river, his heart beat wildly when he didn't come, and the sense of danger that he hadn't seen for a long time hit his heart.

He wanted to raise his hand and slap a handful of the icy river water, to wake himself up and think carefully about where the danger came from.

But when he raised his hand, he was stunned.

"Is this oil?"

The distinctly different touch from water and the pungent smell on his hand made it easy for Jiang Chao to identify what had been mixed into the water.

Just how can there be oil in the water?
As more and more oil was mixed in the water, the pungent taste became stronger and stronger.

Jiang Chao's face changed drastically, and he immediately shouted: "Run! There is an ambush!"

on the river.

There are far more smart people than Jiang Chao.

When Jiang Chao's shout appeared, there were also shouts from other places.

on a fishing boat.

Yang Ning frowned subconsciously when he heard the voices shouting everywhere, and scolded in a low voice: "You bastard, didn't you tell me not to make any noise when crossing the river?"

After hearing those shouts clearly, he approached Yang Ning and reminded him in a low voice: "Hearing their shouts, it seems that there is an ambush?"

Yang Ning smiled when he heard this.

The smile was full of sarcasm, "There is an ambush, how can I ambush in the water? Can the thief turn into a fish and hide in the water?"

Even though Yang Ning doesn't understand military affairs, he also knows that there is no way to ambush in the water.

Even if some individuals with good water skills can hide in the water and cause obstacles for them to cross the river, it is not enough to affect the overall situation.

The sarcasm in Yang Ning's heart seemed to be felt by Jiang Chao in the water.

He also realized that he might not have expressed himself clearly.

Because after he shouted that there was an ambush, not many people responded.

Immediately, Jiang Chao immediately changed his rhetoric and shouted: "There is oil in the water, and there is oil in the fire!"

This cry.

Jiang Chao tried his best, so even Yang Ning, who was far away, could hear clearly.

Yang Ning's expression changed immediately, and he rushed to the side of the boat, reached out to grab a handful of water, felt the oil stains hanging on his hands, and his expression changed drastically.

"Quick! Send the order! Let the rear team immediately withdraw to the river bank, and the front team quickly cross the river."

however.

Everything is too late.

Just when his voice just fell.

Not far upstream, a fire dragon suddenly rose.

The fire dragon swallowed the entire river in an instant, and then went down the river.

The speed is so fast that it is appalling.

In a blink of an eye, it spread for several miles.

Some soldiers of the Song Army who didn't know why were also aware of their dangerous situation at this moment.

Shouting loudly one by one, they frantically rushed to the opposite bank of the river.

Some people even didn't care about climbing up the iron chain, plunged into the water, and swam to the other side of the river.

Yang Ning stood on the head of the bed, screaming heart-piercingly.

"Run! Run!"

Although he is not a qualified general or a qualified official, he still has a certain conscience.

At the first moment of danger, the lives of the soldiers were thought of.

Pianjiang rushed forward, pulled Yang Ning and prepared to find a way to hide.

But Yang Ning still didn't care about it, and still stood on the bow of the boat and shouted heart-piercingly.

"Whoo~"

A gust of wind blew by.

Contributed to the momentum of the flame.

The speed of the flame is a bit faster.

In a blink of an eye, they arrived at the place where the soldiers of the Song Army crossed the river.

"Ah~"

The flames engulfed the soldiers of the Song army who were struggling in the water in an instant, covering the entire surface of the river.

The soldiers of the Song Army fell into the river amidst howls.

Some who are familiar with water, plunged into the water, trying to avoid the fire on the water.

but.

After all, they have humbled Yang Er's heart.

In order to defeat the Song army.

Yang Er gathered almost half of the fire oil in the army. From the beginning of pouring oil to the present, it has never stopped.

They either suffocate underwater, or burn to death when they emerge, but there is no other way.

"Lu Duan! I fell into your trick!"

Yang Ning was completely awake at this moment, and he also realized where his problem was.

Immediately shouted in grief on the bow.

Seeing the flames devouring the lives of soldiers of the Song Army, he felt as if he had committed a serious crime.

Compared to the shameless Hou Renbao who used to be, Yang Ning is more or less shameless.

Although he is conceited, arrogant, and even a little arrogant.

But he never shirks responsibility.

"My lord, if you don't run, it will be too late. The fire is going to burn the boat!"

Pianjiang hurriedly shouted from the side.

Yang Ning turned a deaf ear to it. He sat paralyzed on the bow of the boat, staring at the flames on the water with tears in his eyes.

"It's me! It's me who hurt you! It's me who hurt you!"

Pianjiang couldn't stand it anymore, and immediately gritted his teeth and growled: "My lord, it's useless to say these things now, it's more important to run for your life..."

"Escape?"

Yang Ning was full of tears, crying and laughing: "I am not qualified to run for my life, because I killed so many soldiers because of my own will. I should pay for their lives..."

"I will pay you my life!"

Yang Ning roared and jumped into the river.

"grown ups!"

Pianjiang hurried to pull it, but he didn't.

Seeing Yang Ning jumped into the river and was swallowed by flames.

Pianjiang licked his lips, gritted his teeth and said, "Although you are a waste, you are barely bloody..."

After leaving this sentence, the general pulled the boatman to row the boat that was already on fire, and ran to the opposite bank.

The boatman didn't dare to stop the boat because he had the knife on his neck.

He didn't dare to dive, because the fire under the water was bigger.

The general will praise Yang Ning for his blood.

How does he know.

When the fire spread across the river, Yang Ning thought far more than what he saw.

When he knew there was oil in the water, Yang Ning knew he had been tricked.

At that time, he thought that he was sorry for the soldiers, and at the same time, he was also thinking about his retreat.

But after thinking about it for a while, he still found that this was a deadly game.

Even if he escaped by chance, he will definitely be held responsible for the defeat of the army because of his stupidity.

Like Zhao Kuo, he will also be written in history books and be reviled for thousands of years.

Even if he survived, he would have to live in endless condemnation and self-annoyance in the future.

Today, like the scene of hell in flames, will continue to burn and burn in his heart.

Torment every inch of his heart until the end of his life.

Therefore, he needs to give an explanation to the court and to the soldiers.

Only one death can give everyone an explanation.

He won't be like a certain Song official in the back who lost the battle and caused hundreds of thousands of soldiers to die in the hands of the Xixia people. He was dragged by the reins of the soldiers and asked where Erlang was by the family members of the soldiers, but he was still able to stand shamelessly in the end In the chapel.

This is also known as the pillar of the Song Dynasty.

How sad, how deplorable?
Closer to home.

Yang Ning died.

The soldiers of the Song Army were leaderless.

Whether it's on one side of the river or on the other side of the river, it's all a mess at the moment.

The soldiers of the forbidden army are fine, and there are still generals and schools to restrain them.

Those recruited soldiers can't control so much.

They fled in panic, aimlessly.

It was like throwing a fire in a pile of rats, and the rats fled around.

"Kill!"

Yang San, who had been prepared for a long time, led the troops of the Southern Kingdom to fight out at this time.

The 15 soldiers of the Song Army who crossed the river were besieged by the Southern Army before they could stand still.

The shouts of killing were loud, but not many killings happened.

The recruited soldiers, when they heard the shout of killing, immediately knelt down and begged for surrender.

It's not that they are spineless, but that at this moment, they are flustered and only want to survive.

The recruited soldiers knelt down.

The officers and soldiers of the imperial army were left there.

"Children, kill with me!"

Those who are strong will lead the brothers under their hands and charge upwards.

For those who dare to resist.

Yang San was also not polite, and commanded the Southern Kingdom Army under him to strangle them.

The other officers and soldiers of the Forbidden Army also bit the bullet and rushed up at this time.

The two sides fought fiercely together in an instant.

at this time.

Lu Duan led a group of people, each holding a copper gong, and shouted loudly while beating the gong, "We are born from the same root, so why rush each other! Can you listen to me!"

Under the protection of his own soldiers, Lu Duan ran around among the chaotic army to tell each other.

Surprisingly, except for a few shots against him with obvious hostility, most of the soldiers did not shoot him.

Lu Duan took a look, there was a play.

Immediately shouted more vigorously.
