Horse on the World

Chapter 879

Peng Hao's headquarters was defeated by the Dingzhou Army in Pipashugou, and the chief general Peng Hao was killed on the spot. A part of the Dingzhou Army had already guerrillaized near the main position of Tianzi Mountain, which shocked Liao Bin of Tianzi Mountain. At the highest point of Tianzi Mountain, I saw that the beacon fire on the Niukou defense line was not extinguished all day long. From the first beacon fire to the three beacon fires a few days later, the emergency signal has risen to the highest level, and it is obviously at stake.
It is necessary to send reinforcements again immediately, otherwise if Niukou falls, one arm of the Tianzishan defense line will be broken, but if reinforcements are sent, they will have to face the attack of the Dingzhou army near Pipashugou It is the only way to quickly support Niukou. If you take a detour, it will take at least a few days, and a few days is enough for the Dingzhou Army to take Niukou.

Liao Bin was fidgeting on the Tianzishan defense line like a trapped animal. He walked to the highest point of the defense line several times to look at the Niukou defense line, for fear that when the beacon fire there would go out, it would mean that Niukou had fallen.

"General Liao, we've found out everything!" A school lieutenant climbed up panting, saluted Liao Bin, and said.
"Tell me quickly, what is the specific situation?" Liao Bin asked eagerly.

"This unit of the Dingzhou Army now has about [-] people, and it is about [-] miles away from our defense line, and it is less than five miles away from Pipashugou. The state army blocked it tightly and could not penetrate it. However, according to the estimates of the sentry, there must be some mystery in the loquat tree ditch. If our army passes through here rashly, once attacked in the ditch, the Dingzhou army outside will block If we stay on the retreat route, our troops will be in danger of being wiped out." The captain said anxiously.
"Who is the commander of this Dingzhou army?" Liao Bin asked.
"Look at the opponent's general flag, it's a lot of money," said the captain.

"General Liao, it should be Qian Duo, which is also quite consistent with what the soldiers who fled back said." The middle officer said on the side.

"A lot of money?" Liao Bin touched his chin, "This bastard is not stingy!" Liao Bin said thoughtfully, "Maybe we can try and lure him to a decisive battle with us. As long as we kill him, we can To rescue Niukou on a large scale, there are not many defenders in Qingyang, and Xu Kexing's troops only have more than [-] people at most, and Chen Zeyue did not mobilize the main force to enter Qingyang."
"Qian Duo's task is to contain us so that our troops cannot come in and out at will. I'm afraid it won't be easy to lure him into battle." The officer in the army shook his head and said.

"If it's another Dingzhou general, there is really no other good way, but with so much money, maybe!" Liao Bin sneered.

Qian Duo was in a bad mood, Tian Chong's death hit him hard, although every general had the consciousness of dying at any time when he stepped onto the battlefield, and death was a common thing for them, but when a We have been together for a long time, and when the good brother who once shared weal and woe really died in front of him, no one's mood would be better.

Since the Battle of Qingyang, Tian Chong and Qian Duo have been together. For several years, they stirred a ladle in a pot, rolled on a bunk, and laughed and cursed together. , Then heaven and man are separated forever.
Le Buping sat beside Qian Duo, vigorously wiping the already polished steel knife again and again, as if venting, Le Buping blamed himself, if he ran faster, if he found If it had been earlier, if I had shot the arrow faster, the ending might have been different, but just a little bit later, my friend died in my arms.
It has been three days since he came out, and Liao Bin from Tianzishan didn't send out a second army, and even facing this harassing army, Liao Bin didn't come out to chase after him. , Maybe at the next moment, it will be the time when the Minzhou Army on the Niukou defense line is defeated.
Qian Duo still has nearly 3000 people in his hands, but there are still about a thousand people sent by Chen Zeyue hidden in the loquat ditch. These more than a thousand people occupy the high ground at both ends of the loquat ditch. , Then, these more than 1000 people will become his nightmare, and the ditch has prepared a big feast for him.
But Liao Bin is not a rookie either. With such a dangerous terrain in the hands of the opponent, he will never attack easily.

"General Qian!" A messenger in the ditch came riding a fast horse like flying.

Qian Duo stood up, "What orders does General Chen have?"

The messenger handed Qian Duo an envelope, tore it open with a bang, Qian Duo read it quickly, hissed, and passed the letter to Le Buping beside him, "Grandma, we were all played by General Chen. "
In the letter, Chen Zeyue fully revealed his battle plan until this time.

He wanted to take Niukou and Cangping in one fell swoop. When Chen Zeyue appeared in Qingyang City, another Dingzhou army of about 5000 under his command had already arrived in Qingyang secretly, lurking on the side of Cangping. On his side, he stormed Niukou with all his strength, sent more money out of Pipashugou, and restrained Liao Bin's defense line in Tianzi Mountain. Yang County, in order to encircle Wei and rescue Zhao, force Chen Zeyue to withdraw his troops, and lift the siege of Niukou.And what Chen Zeyue was waiting for was the Cangping defenders coming out of the defense line.

Cangping did not use Dingzhou cavalry to attack because of the large number of tidal flats and wetlands, so the enemy was drawn out to fight.So far, the plan has been mostly successful, and because Chen Zeyue was worried that Qian Duo would take the risk of attacking, especially after Tian Chong's body was sent back, Chen Zeyue was even more worried that Qian Duo would provoke Liao Bin because of his anger. In the end, Chen Zeyue only had one The order, that is, no matter what, Qian Duo's task is to contain Liao Bin's troops.There are nearly [-] Minzhou troops in Tianzi Mountain, and if only half of them come out, it is not enough money to deal with them.
And as long as Chen Zeyue takes Niukou and Cangping in one fell swoop, the left and right arms of Tianzi Mountain will be cut off, and he will be alone. At that time, he will be more confident in besieging Tianzi Mountain. He wanted to force Liao Bin to retreat to Donglin because of the loss of the left and right flanks, while the Dingzhou army tried to find an opportunity to annihilate the opponent's vital forces during the movement when the opponent retreated.
Chen Zeyue disliked attacking strong fortresses. He himself had defended strong fortresses before, and he had a deep understanding of the astonishing losses in attacking fortresses.

Xiang Zhuang's sword dance was aimed at Peigong. What Chen Zeyue wanted to fight was not Liao Bin's reinforcements, but Cangping's defenders.But now, the main force of Cangping has come out, rushing all the way to Qingyang, trying to catch Qingyang by surprise, but unexpectedly, on one side, the Dingzhou army has shown its sharp teeth.
Le Buping smiled wryly, "For a long time, we are just a bait, a side teacher!"

"General Qian, the enemy army in Tianzi Mountain has left the line of defense and is heading straight for us." A sentry rushed over.

Qian Duo hurriedly stood up, "Liao Bin, the dog day, really pounced on me, wanting to fight with me?"

Le Buping sneered, "A fart for a duel, he wants to bully the few with more, old money, according to General Chen's order, we don't need to fight him at all, just keep a distance and hang them, as long as they dare to enter Pipashugou, If we block them to fight in the ditch again, given the topography of Loquat Tree Ditch, no matter how many others can spread out, then we will block them from front to back and close the door to beat the dogs."
"Of course I won't fight him. Isn't this son of a bitch just going to defeat us head-on and then support Niukou! Pooh, think I'm so stupid! Order the whole army to pull out the camp and prepare to retreat."
"General Qian, General Qian!" Not long after Qian Duo's order was handed down, when the soldiers of the whole army retreated slowly, a school lieutenant rushed over from the front.

"Tang Qiang, why did you come here in person?" Qian Duo frowned, Tang Qiang was his scout captain.
"General Qian, the troops coming down from Tianzi Mountain are a bit strange."

"What's weird? Could it be that they have horns on their heads and blooms on their faces? It's weird!" Qian Duo snorted coldly.
Tang Qiang glanced at Qian Duo, his face was a little ugly, "Their front army erected several flagpoles more than two feet long, and a naked woman was tied to each flagpole."
"Naked woman?" Qian Duo was taken aback, "Liao Bin took the wrong medicine, what did he want to do if he wanted to dance? My father, Qian Duo, doesn't believe in gods and Buddhas, he doesn't believe in heaven and earth, he just believes in the hammer in his hand."

Tang Qiang hesitated to speak, but stopped.

"You fucking fart!" Qian Duo was furious, "I'm in a bad mood, believe it or not, I'll beat you."
Tang Qiang's complexion changed, and he said in a low voice: "General Qian, the identity of that naked woman is a bit special. There is a large piece of white cloth hanging on the flagpole, and the identities of these women are fixed on it! It has something to do with the general."

Qian Duo's expression changed, "Is it related to me?"

Tang Qiang bit his lip and whispered, "It seems that they are all your family members, General Qian!"
With a bang, Qian Duo jumped up, "My family? My..."
Qian Duo and Le Buping climbed up a gentle slope under the guidance of Tang Qiang. In the distance, the Minzhou Army that came down from Tianzi Mountain was slowly advancing with two infantry phalanxes as the lead. As Tang Qiang said, in three directions At the front of the formation, several soldiers worked together to lift the flagpoles one by one. On top of the flagpole, a woman was tied up. Her body was naked, and the thick black ink was written on the fluttering white cloth. Even far away, they can see clearly.
"Qian Gui's wife so-and-so!"

"Qian Gui's concubine so-and-so!"
"Qian Gui's concubine so-and-so!"
With a choking sound, Qian Duo pulled out his waist, "Bastard, I will fight with you!" Pulling his legs, he wanted to rush forward, and his body tightened. Hold it down.
"Old Qian, calm down, doesn't this bastard just want you to fight him out? Have you seen that, they have nearly ten thousand people, how can we fight them out like this?" Le Buping shouted.
"Scholars can't be killed, they can't be humiliated, the worst is death!" Qian Duo roared angrily, the corners of his eyes burst open, and blood came out from his lips biting.
"Old Qian, this is not the time to be brave. You are a general, and there are three thousand brothers behind you. If you rush out, can you brothers watch? If you rush out together, you will die here together. "Le Buping insisted on the amount of money.

Qian Duo, who had been struggling desperately for a while, slowly calmed down, his face turned white, he opened his mouth suddenly, and spit out a mouthful of blood, "Liao Bin, I will never die with you!"
