Chapter 79

The rain completely drenched the ground, and the three hundred young guards remained motionless and lurked in the mud, letting the rain slurry flow on their bodies.The imperial guards who were watching the battle hid behind the big trees, and were amazed. Although this young guard was young, he had strict military discipline and strict orders, even adults like himself felt ashamed.

The two campfires in the cottage were also doused by the rain, and the entire cottage was completely hidden in darkness.

"How long will it rain?" Wen Zhang became impatient.

Li Yuan next to him said: "General, it's hard to say how much rain there is in the mountains, but this kind of heavy rain usually doesn't last too long."

Wenzhang let out an "oh" and fell into deep thought. Just now, he wished he could pick out this gangster's den by himself. Fortunately, Li Yuan called "General" in time. He was General Wenzhang, not Hero Wen.

Seeing that he could climb up the cliff only a few meters away, He Quchen rested for a while, and was about to make the final sprint. Unexpectedly, the heavy rain suddenly hit, He Quchen panicked, and immediately slid down a few meters. Shen Mo was very calm, and reached out to hold his arm, preventing him from continuing to slide.

He Quchen used his strength to stabilize his body, regained his composure, glanced at Shen Mo gratefully, and thought to himself, it's so dangerous.

At this time, the heavy rain was still falling. He Quchen gritted his teeth and continued to climb up. In this case, there was no way out. The best choice, He Quchen followed Wenzhang's instructions to lighten his body, adjust his breath, and climb up little by little. The hillside was soaked by rain and was quite slippery. Every time He Quchen advanced one meter, he often fell half a meter. Moreover, it is becoming more and more difficult to find the focus point, and the large clump of weeds with strong support began to

The rocks protruding from the cliff gradually loosened, and the soil and stones rolled down with the rain.

In the last three meters, He Quchen's lips were already bleeding from biting his lips, and his strength began to fail.Although he practiced martial arts with his father since he was a child, the martial arts he learned was not top-notch. In addition, he was young after all, and gradually felt powerless. His hands and legs felt heavier and heavier, like several heavy sandbags hanging on them.

Shen Mo, who was in the lower position, also felt strenuous. Although his martial arts were much higher than He Quchen's, he could only protect himself under such heavy rain.

In such a situation, there was not much mountain climbing skills to speak of, only relying on his own will, He Quchen didn't think too much, only one belief remained in his heart, he couldn't embarrass the commander or the youth guard.

He Quchen climbed to the top of the cliff almost relying on subconscious perseverance.

How many three meters are there in life, but also how many people fall within these three meters.

Wen Zhang finally made up his mind and said: "Wang Hong, choose thirty young guards as the vanguard, and follow me to attack. You lead the others to follow closely, and pay attention to wearing tree hats. Taking advantage of the heavy rain, neither side can see or hear you. , quickly rushed to the front of the cottage."

"Don't wait for Lao He's signal?"

"Wait, it's hard to catch fire in this weather, and if it does, we can't see it."

"Okay, even if the opponent's archer is still in the archery tower, it won't be effective in the rain. There should be no problem rushing to the front of the cottage."

The distance of 100 meters is nothing under normal circumstances. In training, the youth guard did not know how many [-]-meter sprints, but in the heavy rain and in the unfamiliar darkness, the speed could not be fast.

Wen Zhang took the lead, and [-] guards lined up with weapons in their hands, followed by the brigade led by Wang Hong, rushing towards the stronghold together.At the last ten meters, Wen Zhang suddenly accelerated his speed, rushed to the door, looked up at the archery tower, and saw that the guards inside were no longer there, so he breathed a sigh of relief, thinking, Gai Jiaotian, after all, he is a bandit who is not in the same rank.

A moment later, Wang Hong led the brigade to kill them.

Wen Zhang called ten archers and said: "Zheng Dan, you lead the archers in and find a place to hide, and only sneak attack in secret, Wang Hong."

"Commander, subordinates are here."

"Pass down the order. After entering, there will be a group of three according to the plan. Do not leave alone. Leave 20 people guarding the gate to prevent the bandits from escaping. The rest are ready to break the gate."

When Wang Hong received the order, he was about to have someone break open the gate of the cottage, but when he saw the gate opened from the inside, Lao He vomited and beckoned, "Quick."

After He Quchen climbed the cliff, he found that there were no bandits guarding him, so he bowed and ran towards the house in the middle, only to find that the gunpowder had been completely soaked by rainwater when he reached the eaves. Knowing that there was no possibility of ignition, he immediately changed his plan and quietly Come to the main entrance, ready to join the brigade.The cottage is not big. When He Quchen arrived at the door, he also looked at the watchtower first. There was no one there, but he found a small and simple wooden house under the watchtower. He Quchen guessed that the two guards May be in it, look back and see the next

Afterwards, Shen Mo's heart warmed up, and he held the dagger behind his back and entered the wooden house. Sure enough, two thieves who were sleeping like dead pigs were lying on the bed. , cut the throats of two bandits, turned around and came out to open the door for the brigade. At the same time, he couldn't help vomiting. Although He Quchen had seen countless dead people in his hometown, it was the first time to kill someone with his own hands, let alone two people. .

Youth Guard hurried through the gate and rushed towards the group of houses in the center of the cottage.

At this time, there was a sudden burst of lightning in the sky, followed by a thunderous roar. Amidst the lightning, someone outside the group of houses suddenly shouted: "Officers and soldiers are attacking, get up quickly."

Wen Zhang cursed secretly, this guy really knows how to choose the time to pee at night, "Brothers, go."

As soon as the words fell, He Wang and his two rushed to the man first, raised their swords in their hands, and beheaded him.But someone in the room was still awakened, Gai Jiaotian thought it was another Xiang army, and hurriedly shouted: "Get up quickly, kill this group of Xiang soldiers who don't know the current affairs."

Six or seventy people walked out of the house in a panic, and were shot and killed seven or eight by ten archers led by Zheng Dan, and then the young guards rushed forward, in groups of three, with swords and guns at the same time, and beheaded a dozen or so confused Shan in one fell swoop. thief.

Gai Jiaotian held a big knife, and when he went out, he knew that this was not the Xiang army. Except for the hat that was a branch, he couldn't see the sergeant clearly in the dark. They couldn't even see clearly, let alone the military uniform of the imperial guards that Gai Jiaotian was not familiar with.Gai Jiaotian could only tell from the young guard's heroic fighting spirit that it was not the Xiang army, but he was not allowed to think too much at this time, and rushed towards the young guard with a big knife in his hand.

When the bandits saw Gai Jiaotian coming out, they regained consciousness and raised their weapons to fight back.Although these bandits don't know martial arts, but they are adults, they are strong and strong, and they can stop the young guards at once. They think it is still a Xiang army. As long as they persist for a while, this group of Xiang troops will retreat on their own.

However, the performance of the young guard instantly crushed the psychology of the bandits.

Even if someone was injured, no one retreated. A group of three, one gun and two knives, occasionally mixed with the support of archers, although the cooperation was still unfamiliar, it was no longer something the bandits could resist.Not long after, some people began to abandon their knives and surrender, and some began to run backwards. The defensive formation was completely messed up. After the bandits dispersed, they were surrounded by the youth guards. They either surrendered or were wiped out.

Gai Jiaotian was surrounded by King He and other six people, and he didn't care about commanding the bandits under him. The two sides fought close together. Gai Jiaotian saw that they were all weak-crowned child soldiers, and he couldn't imagine that there was such an army in Song Dynasty , thinking it was another group of bandits who robbed the mountain.

King He and other six young guards surrounded Gai Jiaotian and attacked randomly, making him flustered. At the cost of minor injuries to three people, He Quchen found an opening and stabbed Gai Jiaotian's wrist with a short blade. He was thrown to the ground by Wang Hong and so on, and finally captured alive.

The hundreds of imperial guards watching the battle also breathed a sigh of relief, and all of them involuntarily left their right hands from the hilt.

Only Wen Zhang stood under the eaves of a roof, holding a flying knife in his hand, watching all this calmly.

At that moment, Shen Mo seemed to see a confident and invincible General Wen.
