Chapter 228 Taishan Thief ([-])
In November, Mount Tai snowed heavily.

Dong Bi's men were entangled on the road by Zang Ba, and seven days had passed.

Although Sanqian Hu Benlang didn't suffer too many casualties, his marching speed became extremely slow.Na Zang Ba used all his skills, using tripwires, traps, and cold arrows.Forcing Dong Bi to be cautious and march slowly.

In seven days, the march was less than a hundred miles.

During the period, Zang Ba even stole the camp and robbed the village during the snowy night, and burned about [-]% of Dong Pi's food, grass and luggage.

However, Danyang produced elite soldiers, and the more than 2000 Danyang elite soldiers selected by Dong Bi were the best of the best.But after all, due to lack of training, they are not really elite soldiers of Danyang.The repeated setbacks have already made the morale of the soldiers low, and after that fire, the morale of the soldiers was even more broken.Soldiers escaped and disappeared one after another, and the situation became more and more serious.

Dong Bi began to become irritable and often drunk.

And after he was drunk, he often whipped the soldiers, which made the morale even more depressed.

By the time of No. 12th, almost half of the 800 elite soldiers had run away, leaving only [-] people, including [-] trolls.

Lu Zhi tried hard to persuade, but Dong Bi didn't stop at all.

In a rage, Lu Zhi left the barracks with his whole family.

******
"Lu Zhi really left?"

Thirty miles away from the official road, in the deep mountains, there is a team hiding in a valley, the number is about two to three thousand.

The leading general is seven feet eight inches tall, not too tall, but very stocky.

Sword eyebrows, bright eyes, complexion showing a bronze look due to frequent outdoor activities.Black beard under jaw, straight nose and square mouth.

He was dressed in iron armor, and his hair was tied with golden rings.

Standing at the mouth of the valley, he looked at a general in front of him with a serious expression.

Behind him, there are two other people, also wearing helmets.

"Brother, I can see for real that old man Lu has indeed left. Now the Dong family's camp is empty, with only a few hundred people. Moreover, the army's morale is scattered and their morale is low. If I wait until this time to attack, I will be able to completely wipe them out." crush."

Unexpectedly, the general seemed very hesitant.

"Sun Guan, although Dong Bi killed your elder brother, but your elder brother was wrong first. Master Lu is famous all over the world and has high morals. How could he... If he didn't go and rob Master Lu, how could he die? Dong Bi is the world He is a tiger general, and he is loyal to the imperial court. If we make things difficult for him all the way, it is regarded as revenge for Sun Kang... I think we should accept it as soon as it is good."

Sun Guan jumped and said, "Xuan Gao, it wasn't your brother who died, of course it's easy for you to say..."

The general behind Zang Ba frowned, "Sun Guan, be careful with what you say."

"Am I wrong?" Sun Guandao: "We are bandits. What does his loyalty to the court have to do with us? Wu Dun, do you still think you are an officer? Have you forgotten that when you were arrested by Zhu Jun was beaten homeless, my brother took you in. I saw Xuan Gao's benevolence, so I handed over the chief, did Xuan Gao forget?"

The two generals behind Zang Ba were both officers who returned to Xuzhou with Zang Ba.

One is Wu Dun and the other is Yin Li.Hearing that Sun Guan spoke like this, his face turned purple with anger, and he wanted to refute.

Zang Ba stopped the two of them, "Sun Guan, it's not that I forgot your brother's kindness...it's just that this matter is weird."

Sun Guandao: "What's weird?"

"That Dong Bi is the general of tigers and wolves. Since his debut, he has been invincible. With his ability, he should not be in such a mess. I am worried that there is a fraud in it. Maybe it is the Dong family who tricked him. Lead me to wait for the bait."

Sun Guan snorted, "Does Xuan Gao think I'm a fool? I saw the Dong family whipping the soldiers for real. Dong Bi may be powerful, but his men are all freshly recruited soldiers. It's freezing cold today. How can we stabilize the morale of the army? Xuan Gao, are you afraid of the son of the Dong family?"

Zang Ba was furious when he heard this.

"Why was Zang ever afraid of people?"

"Then join me in robbing the camp tonight and beheading the head of the Dong family son. Recently, his army has lost his morale and his guards are extremely lax. And every night, he will definitely set up the camp and get drunk. It is a good time to take action now." Opportunity...Of course, if you don't want to, I can go by myself."

The words are provocative.

Zang Ba, such a proud and arrogant person, couldn't bear it anymore when he heard this.

"In this case, I will accompany you for a while. I will bet on the head of the Dong family son. Whoever gives birth will belong to the old camp of Mount Tai. Sun Guan, do you dare to bet with me?"

The corner of Sun Guan's mouth twitched, "Why wouldn't Sun dare?"

At the moment, the four arranged the details and prepared to go.

Zang Ba stopped Yin Li suddenly, "Brother, I would like to invite you back to the old camp."

"What are you going back to the old camp for?"

"I always feel that there is something wrong with this matter, especially today my eyelids are twitching... I am worried that something will happen to the old camp."

"You mean..."

Zang Ba quickly shook his head, "I didn't say anything, I just felt uneasy."

"Okay, I'll take people back to the old camp immediately."

"Be careful with Sun Guan, don't let him find out and give you the truth."

Yin Li nodded slightly immediately, "Xuan Gao don't worry, I know the seriousness."

In the afternoon, Yin Li led 500 troops and quietly left the valley.But Zang Ba still felt uneasy, and waited until dark in the valley.

After nightfall, there was a wind in the mountains.

Dark clouds cover the moon, and there is no light to be seen.

It was the dark night of the moon, and the sky was full of fire... Zang Ba heaved a sigh of relief, and after joining Wu Dun and Sun Guan's men, a total of 5000 people quietly went out of the mountain and went straight to Dong Bi's camp. go.

Dong Bi's men and horses set up camp after nightfall.

Thinking of the thousands of people at the beginning, the momentum was spectacular.But now, there are only a few hundred people left, and it looks like a depression.

Outside the gate of the camp, there were no guards.

The camp was brightly lit, and one could faintly smell the smell of alcohol.

It was very cold, and the soldiers must have been hiding in tents to keep warm.Zang Ba observed for a long time, and saw that there was indeed no ambush, so he felt relieved.Immediately let Wu Dun lead a team to surround from behind, while he and Sun Guan lead the others into the camp.After entering the camp, Sun Guan yelled, "Kill me hard!"

The bandits swarmed out and rushed towards the tents.

But Zang Ba and Sun Guan led their men straight to the main tent of the Chinese army.

But the strange thing is that such a big commotion did not arouse anyone's idea.

Zang Ba groaned inwardly, but the bandits who rushed into the tent shouted loudly: "There is no one in the tent."

"Sun Guan, we have been fooled, retreat quickly!"

Zang Ba yelled, pulled his horse and left.But at this time, countless rockets flew from all directions, and the tents were ignited.I don't know what was smeared on the tent, but it caught fire all of a sudden.Immediately afterwards, there were shouts of killing.

From the back camp, kill a team of people.

It was Pan Zhang and Ling Cao.

"Zang Ba, don't go... My lord has been a prince of yours for a long time!"

These two led about 800 people, and they charged and killed the panicked bandits for a long time.Sun Guanyue raised his gun, trying to stop the two of them.Unexpectedly, when Ling Cao's flying horse arrived, he cut Sun Guan off the horse with a slash on his head.

Zang Ba was stopped by Pan Zhang, and the two met opponents.

In terms of martial arts, Zang Ba is slightly ahead.But in such an environment, the mind has been scattered.

Over there, Ling Cao beheaded Sun Guan, and joined forces with Pan Zhang to attack Zang Ba.As for the bandits, they were in chaos, being chased by seven or eight hundred Danyang soldiers for a while, and they couldn't organize an effective resistance at all.

"Retreat, retreat!"

Seeing that the situation was not good, Zang Ba shot Pan Zhang and Ling Cao back with a feint shot, and headed towards the outside of the camp.

As soon as he ran out of the camp, he saw Wu Dun coming in embarrassed with a group of remnants and defeated generals.

"Xuan Gao, retreat quickly, retreat quickly...they have an ambush!"

Seeing Wu Dun's appearance, he knew without thinking that he had been ambushed.But I really don't understand why Wu Dun was also ambushed when Sun Guan clearly said that all the officers and generals were in the camp.

"Wu Dun, what's going on?"

Wu Dun was still bleeding, and said with a wry smile: "Xuan Gao, we were rushed by the officers and soldiers before we outflanked the past. There were two generals in the lead, one with a big sword in his hand and the other with a double hammer. There should be about a thousand people."

"Sun Guan ruined my big business!"

Zang Ba heard it and roared loudly.But there is a saying that the army was defeated like a mountain. While there were two soldiers led by Pan Zhang from the camp to hide and kill them, another group of troops rushed towards them from a distance.The two leading generals are Dong Tie and Wu Anguo.

It turned out that after Dong Bi decided to subdue Zang Ba, he set up a plan to divide his troops.

On the surface, those deserters had left, but in fact they were gathered up by Dong Tie and others not long after they left.

The Dong Tie and others that Sun Guan saw were all disguised in clothes.

Since Zang Ba is unwilling to confront each other head-on, let him be forced to fight.It was to lure the snake out of the hole that Dong Pi and Lu Zhi spent a lot of energy on this.

Seeing that the situation was irretrievable, Zang Ba had no choice but to run into the mountains with his men.

The bandits under him are as fierce as tigers when they are successful, but once they fail, they are like dogs that lost their homes.

The morale of the army is gone, and there is no room for recovery.

Zang Ba urged his horse to go hastily, but said to himself: That general of tiger and wolf really deserves his reputation.

But he was not very convinced, Zang Ba felt that although Dong Pi's strategy was ingenious, if it wasn't for Sun Guan, how could he be fooled?

Hehe, although he was defeated, Sun Guan died.

In this way, the old camp of Mount Tai belonged to him, and in his heart, he felt a little bit of joy.

It's okay to fail, as long as the green hills remain, you won't be afraid of running out of firewood.

After entering the mountain, what can those officers and soldiers do to me?Dong Jiazi, you beat me by one game today, and I will pay you back ten times in the future.

Thinking in my heart, I have reached the mountain pass ahead.

Zang Ba shouted loudly: "Brothers, hurry up and enter the mountain. Once you enter the mountain, it will be our world."

Before the words fell, there was a sound of clappers.

A group of people rushed out from the back of the mountain, the leader was a general, his crotch looked like a dragon, and he held a horizontal lance in his palm.He is over Zhang tall, but with a lion nose and wide mouth, black beard and cheeks under his jaw, just like a male lion.Eyes narrowed slightly, and the general smiled and said: "Xuan Gao, I have been waiting for you here for a long time!"

what……

Zang Ba was taken aback, and quickly reined in his horse.

I saw that Dong Pi was followed by three hundred giant magicians.

They were all dressed in black heavy armor, and even the horses under their crotches were tightly wrapped in thick armor, with only a pair of horse eyes exposed.

The formation of 300 people silently spread out, and Dong Bi was at the forefront.

Zang Ba was taken aback again, and thought to himself: It looks like today is desperate...

"Wu Dun, follow me to kill!"

Zang Ba raised his gun and shouted.Almost at the same time as he spoke, Dong Bi opened his mouth and let out a thunderous roar: "Trolls, punch through!"

In an instant, the elephant dragon rushed down the hillside, followed by the troll warrior behind him.Although there were only 300 people, the sound of rumbling horseshoes was like thousands of horses galloping.Zang Ba was frightened by that brutal murderous aura.

Wu Dun swung his knife to meet him, aimed at Dong Pi and stabbed him in the head.

Dong Yu sneered, raised his gun with one hand, and sent out a letter.Hearing the sound of the clang, Wu Dun's tiger's mouth burst open, and the sword flew out of his hand, his arms went numb.The two horses pedaled wrongly, and Dong Bi suddenly leaned forward.Grabbing Wu Dun's belt, he sneered and said, "Don't come here yet."

Although Wu Dun struggled with all his strength, he was dragged off the horse like a chicken in front of Dong Bi.

Dong Bi clamped Wu Dun with one arm, and threw himself straight at Zang Ba.

"Xuan Gao, you should stay too."

Wu Dun on the ribs shouted loudly: "Xuan Gao, run!"

Zang Ba really wanted to run, but how could his horse compare to Xianglong.In the blink of an eye, Dong Bi rushed in front of Zang Ba, and Da Li pointed at Zang Ba's gun.I felt a huge force coming, and Zang Bazai almost fell down immediately.

"Let's go, General!"

Several personal guards desperately intercepted, trying to buy time for Zang Ba.

It was also because Dong Yu didn't want to be cruel, so he waved his big gun with one hand, and the ghost cried and screamed again and again, enclosing several guards at once.

Zang Ba gritted his teeth, pulled his horse and ran away.

Hundreds of pro-army followed Zang Ba closely, and walked away into the distance.

Only then did Dong Bi sneer, and the big green dragon offered its claws, knocking several guards off the horse with a bang bang bang, and then threw Wu Dun to the ground.Dong Pi's own soldiers stepped forward and put swords on these people's necks.On the other side, the trolls tore the bandits to pieces by piercing through the formation.Later, Pan Zhang and others felt that more than a thousand people had caused thousands of bandits to flee in embarrassment.

"If you haven't surrendered yet, when will you wait?"

Dong Bi didn't want to kill too much, so he sternly shouted.

Thousands of people came to their senses immediately, dropped their weapons one after another, knelt on the ground and shouted for mercy.

Pan Zhang and Ling Cao followed up and said with a smile, "My lord, what should we do with these prisoners?"

"Take these captives back to the big camp... I will bring my own people to join Xiao Tie and the others. It is estimated that Lu Shi and the others should have captured Zang Ba's lair by now. You go back to the camp, take care of these bandits, and wait for Lu Shi and the others news came."

"Here!"

Dong Bi didn't say much, and followed Zang Ba with three hundred trolls and chased him down.

That Zang Ba ran out for about ten miles, and was attacked repeatedly by Dong Tie and Wu Anguo who came round.

There were hundreds of guards, and by dawn, there were only a dozen of them left.

Zang Ba was trapped on a small hill. After Dong Bi arrived with his men, he was not in a hurry to attack.

Just surrounded the hills, and then there was no movement.Zang Ba understood that Dong Bi wanted to catch him alive.

He wanted to rush out, but firstly he was exhausted, and secondly...

That Dong Jiazi is really too fierce.Not to mention his tortoise-like troll cavalry, even if he went out alone, with Zang Ba and his dozen or so subordinates, it would be difficult to get any cheap.Not to mention, where is your side still able to fight again?
Suicide?
Zang Ba was a little reluctant again.I don't know what Dong Jiazi means. He can win, but it takes time.

But it's okay, take this opportunity to take a break.

Zang Ba made up his mind and let the guards rest on the spot.

He stood on the hill, looked at the soldiers and horses outside, and guessed Dong Bi's intentions.

Time passed little by little, and at about noon, the answer was finally revealed.I saw a group of people galloping from a distance.The leading general was none other than Pang De.He overwhelmed a group of people, arrived at the foot of the hill, and joined his team.

"Brother, why are you..."

Zang Ba saw Yin Li at the front of the group at a glance.

Behind Yin Li, there are all people who were placed by Zang Ba in the old camp of Mount Tai.Could it be that Dong Jiazi actually found...

Yin Li cried: "Xuan Gao, I'm incompetent... The old camp on Mount Tai has been occupied by the government army!"

"how is this possible?"

"Then Lu Zhi didn't leave at all. He took a team and found our old camp. Lu Gongde was highly respected, and with a few words, he asked Taishan old camp to surrender... I was on the way with my people when I was attacked by General Pang De of the Dong family. , all 500 people, all...Xuan Gao, surrender. As long as you surrender, Mr. Lu guarantees that everyone will be fine."

Immediately afterwards, the group of people who came from the old camp on Mount Tai began to shout.

"General Zang, Lord Lu Gaoyi, is willing to give us a way out. He said that as long as you are willing to submit to the court, you can forget the past. The people in the village are willing to come down the mountain... Lord Lu said that he can be responsible for relocating the land for us."

Such a vicious Dong family!

Zang Ba suddenly smiled wryly.Originally thought that as long as he could escape this catastrophe, he still had a chance.I didn't expect...

Lu Zhi's high prestige among the people can be said to be unmatched by anyone at that time.The Yellow Turban was suppressed, but no killing was carried out. Many people were grateful to Lu Zhi.Taishan old camp, to put it bluntly, the people who gathered were ordinary civilians.If you want to calm down, you only need Lu Zhi to ride alone, and tens of thousands of people can lay down their weapons.Dong Jiazi's calculations are really ruthless.

If there is nothing to do in Taishan Laoying, Zang Ba still has the capital to negotiate with Dong Biao.

But now... Zang Ba is like a gambler who has lost his underwear. How can he still have the qualifications to negotiate?

His eyes changed, and he stood on the mound in a daze.

At this moment, a scribe came out of the crowd on a flying horse, and floated to the bottom of the mound, "Xuan Gao, long time no see."
