Great Wei Overlord

Chapter 160 Killing Ran Ming

Chapter 165 Killing Ran Ming

"That's how it is!" Seeing this, Xie Ai understood why Ran Ming appeared here.If this matter was planned by Ran Ming, this Ran Ming's method is indeed too high, and his courage is too great.

In this way, the offensive formed by Qin's all-powerful soldiers will be self-defeating. I am afraid that at this time, Qin's three-way army will continue to return to Chang'an. After all, at this time, the situation of the Qin court is worrying. own interests, will have to act!

"There is a way to heaven, you don't go, there is no way to hell, you go on your own!" Xie Ai looked at Ran Ming's background and said with a smile: "The general ordered that the whole army continue to maintain pressure on the troops and encircle them on three sides. There is no need to chase hard, Surround yourself to death!"

Running all night, Ran Ming's tribe never escaped from Xie Ai's siege. Xie Ai's tribe adopted the tactic of encircling and not attacking. The Liang army's cavalry was always within three to five hundred steps of Ran Ming's Qilin guards, and the Liang army did not shoot arrows. There was no attack, and when Ran Ming wanted to break through, they all pressed forward and formed a defensive formation.

Although Ran Ming was reluctant, he had to be driven forward by Xie Ai.

Although Ran Ming had already anticipated Xie Ai's intentions.

However, at this time, Ran Ming was helpless, so he had to flee to the east!
At this moment, Jing Zhan touched his throat and said, "Your Highness, Panlong Mountain is in front of you. The mountain is shaped like a giant dragon. It is easy to defend but difficult to attack. We can resist there for a while!"

Panlong Mountain belongs to the remaining vein of Shaohua Mountain. At this time, the cavalry of the Liang Army surrounded Ran Ming's tribe like a dead net.Ran Ming looked at a monastery on the top of Panlong Mountain. As long as there is a monastery, there should be food and water. They can rely on the courtyard wall to support them for a while.

Fortunately, although the foot of Panlong Mountain is rugged, it is not difficult to walk an inch. Although the cavalry cannot ride horses directly up the mountain, they can slowly lead the horse up the mountain!

At this time, the Liang Army cavalry at the foot of the mountain were gathering on the trails down the mountain. It seemed that they did not plan to attack the mountain, but were going to kill Ran Ming alive.

Ran Ming came to this temple on the mountain, surrounded by thousands of rocks and ravines, and the peaks are in love with towering peaks, making this ancient temple even more magnificent and majestic.

Ran Ming looked up and saw a plaque hanging in the temple, on which were written the three vigorous and powerful characters of Qianlong Temple.

Ran Ming looked at Qianlong Temple and asked Jing Zhan, "Do you know where this is?"

Jing Zhan said: "This is a temple built during the period of Emperor Ming of the Eastern Han Dynasty. It is said that Liu Xiu had taken refuge in the temple site and survived when he was hunted down by Wang Mang. A temple was built on Panlong Mountain, named "Qianlong Temple" to commemorate it."

Ran Ming sighed and said: "It turns out that this is a blessed land, where Emperor Guangwu can escape and ascend to heaven, even if he is alone!"

When Ran Ming said this, he was actually very uncertain, he was at most consoling himself!
Jing Zhan turned around and saw more and more Liang cavalry cavalry down the mountain started to jump off their horses, laying out horses and digging trenches on the ground.Jing Zhan was puzzled and said, "Your Highness, the enemy is dozens of times stronger than ours, so why not attack?"

"We have fallen into Xie Ai's trap!" No matter how stupid Ran Ming is now, he still understands Xie Ai's intentions now.

Ran Ming continued: "Xie Ai is using the orphan as a bait at this time. His purpose is not only to capture the orphan alive, but also to encircle and rescue him."

Entering Qianlong Temple, the Eastern Han Dynasty has long since disappeared, and the incense of Qianlong Temple is not too strong. At this time, there are only a dozen big monks in the temple.Ran Ming didn't have a good impression of this monk either, but it wasn't evil either.

Therefore, Ran Ming politely recruited the monks in the temple as temporary husbands and asked them to cook for Qilinwei.

Most of the Qilin Guards rested in the temple after eating and drinking, leaving a dozen people to monitor the movement of Liangjun under the mountain!
Jing Zhan said: "Your Highness, Chen Yong and Liu Ke are only sixty miles away from here. If they come to meet us, we should be able to break out!"

Ran Ming sighed and said: "Actually, this is what Gu is most afraid of. Xie Ai fell into Gu's trick in Wei Yu and suffered heavy losses. If Chen Yong, Liu Ke, and Yang Pu want to leave the camp, they will definitely be thanked on the way." Ai's ambush. The distance of sixty miles, like Fushui and Nandong, are excellent ambush sites."

Jing Zhan said: "But, what should we do?"

"It's a dilemma now!" Ran Ming sighed and said, "If you ask for help, you will definitely be ambushed and suffer heavy losses. If you don't ask for help, we will die here. I really don't want to be reconciled!"

In the Liangjun camp at the foot of the mountain, Xie Ai looked at Panlong Mountain, which was surrounded by a group. This small hill of more than ten miles was surrounded like an iron barrel by Liangjun cavalry. Checkpoints were set up at the entrances of several trails down the mountain, and beacon fires were set up. The beacon fires were lit during the day and the beacon fires were set off at night. As long as Ran Ming broke through from any point, the cavalry of the Liang army could rush to the breakout point in the fastest time.

"General. Ran Ming is still huddled in Qianlong Temple and has not sent a messenger for help!" Zhang Hao said a little angrily.

Xie Ai smiled indifferently, "I am determined to win this time, and I must show my shame. Even if Ran Ming doesn't come to Huayin for rescue, I can send someone to pretend to be Ran Ming's messenger!"

"However, this Ran Ming is a character. I don't want to kill him. This time, as soon as he dares to wipe out the Jie people's bandit army with a weak force, I will do it. I will leave him a whole body!"

At this time, on the official road of Fushui, the Liang army cavalry began to place a dark liquid beside the official road. If Ran Ming was here, he would definitely find that what the Liang army arranged was actually primitive oil, but this oil did not After refining, it is as viscous as pitch.

In fact, it is not a wise way to use fierce kerosene to ambush, because the pungent smell of kerosene can be detected in advance, but the Liang army cavalry did not pour the kerosene directly on the ground, but filled it with leather naan and hung it On the trees on both sides, it is conceivable that as long as the Liangjun rocket ignites this fierce fuel, the trees on both sides of the official road will instantly ignite, forming a raging wall of fire.

Ran Ming finally made up his mind and decided to break out of the encirclement. If Xie Ai's tricks were allowed to succeed, then Wei Jun's losses would be extremely heavy. He might die if he broke through the encirclement, but the loss was within an acceptable range. If he didn't break out, the loss would be incalculable.

Ran Ming suddenly said: "Gu has decided, we will fight out from now on in the evening!"

Jing Zhan said: "Your Highness, I brought fifty brothers to attack the enemy from behind, bluffing all the way to attract the attention of the enemy, so that Zhan Xia can take the opportunity to break out!"

Ran Ming said: "We can't disperse our forces. We have a small number of troops. We can only form fists and fight to the death. Maybe there is still a glimmer of life. But if we disperse our forces, we are doomed to die. So we concentrate our forces and attack directly from the front. To break through, even if it is a mountain of swords and a sea of ​​flames, I have to break through!"

In the big tent of the Chinese army in the Liang army camp under the Panlong mountain.

Tiger Lady handed a stack of papers to Xie Ai. "My lord, here are official documents and stickers written by Ran Ming himself, as well as extensions of "36 Strategies" and "Thousand Character Essay" written by Ran Ming!"

Xie Ai flipped through the thousand-character text, and then looked at "36 Strategies" and couldn't help but marvel at Ran Ming's extraordinary intelligence. Even if he was himself, he probably didn't have such a deep understanding.

As an experienced general, it shouldn't be too difficult to sum up "36 Strategies", but the difficulty is that Ran Ming is only 14 years old. With such achievements in the art of war, this is not just described as clever, it is simply a monster.

Get rid of distracting thoughts in your head.

Xie Ai gave these papers to a scribe named Zhao Mingmo. This scribe has a unique skill and can imitate anyone's handwriting.

Zhao Mo watched Ran Ming's brushwork for nearly an hour, then suddenly raised his head and said, "General, I can do it!"

Xie Ai said, "I will dictate, and you can also write!"

Xie Ai imitated Ran Ming's tone and wrote a letter for help to Chen Yong.

In just half an hour, Zhao Mo finished writing the letter.Xie Ai took the letter and compared it with Ran Ming's handwriting. He couldn't help but marvel at Zhao Mo's brilliance. They were exactly the same, and there was no difference.

Xie Ai then called a soldier who was originally from Wei County.

Three years ago, the whole family escaped the flames of war and fled from Wei Commandery to settle in Liang Country.Xie Ai told the soldier: "Give the letter to Chen Yong, Ran Ming's great apprentice. Remember not to say that Ran Ming was besieged by our army in Panlong Mountain, but tell Chen Yong that Ran Ming found Fu Sheng when he was in Chang'an. They flirted with me in secret, and Ran Ming was worried that things might change on the way home, so he ordered them to send out elite soldiers to respond immediately! This time, you must be prepared to become a benevolent person. If you complete the task, I can guarantee that someone will give you your citizenship, and your family will at least get One hundred acres of land, your sons will enter Liang Guo Taixue to study!"

"Thank you General!"

After thinking for a while, Zhang Hao understood Xie Ai's intention: "The general is clever, and he has a good trick to divert the water from the east. Once Ran Ming has an accident, the Wei army will vent all its anger on Qin Guo. At that time, I am afraid that Wei Guo It's an endless situation with Qin!"

Xie Ai smiled faintly and said: "Fu Sheng of the Qin State launched a mutiny. With Fu Sheng's prestige, it is not enough to convince the public. It is a foregone conclusion that Qin State will fall into civil strife in a short period of time. Ran Ming will definitely not entangle with Qin State again. On the contrary, he will definitely concentrate his strength to deal with Huan Wen's three-way Northern Expeditionary Army. If Ran Ming maintains enough pressure on Qin, those clans and ministers of Qin may put aside their past differences, shake hands and make peace, and jointly deal with foreign enemies. If Ran Ming Withdrawing troops from Guanzhong in the Ming Dynasty, they will be on guard at Tongguan, defending but not attacking. I am afraid that the ministers of the Qin army will fall into a round of fierce power struggles, so it is of little significance for us to stay in Guanzhong, but I have eaten such a big I'm sorry if I didn't teach Ran Ming a lesson."

"General, Ran Ming should not be underestimated. Sooner or later, he will be our Liang country's formidable enemy. Now that he is not young and his mind is immature, it is better to take this opportunity to get rid of him!" Zhang Hao made a gesture of wiping his neck. .
