Chapter 90 Ambush in the Mountains
General Zuo's camp.
The person who came to report the news from the Zhenjun General's Mansion has already left.
In the tent, Shen Yi murmured softly:
"General Feng."
a long time.
A military order was issued:
"Let's go and wipe out the Tianxing rebels who have sneaked into Yunzhou!"
Wait until the messenger leaves.
Shen Yi walked to the wall, took down the steel-colored male and female swords hanging on the wall with both hands, and turned to look at the mountains in the distance outside the tent.
General Feng has been in the army for decades and has mentored countless young people.
He entered the military camp despite his family's opposition and started as a soldier under the command of the general of Zhenjun.
He would never forget the guidance given to him by General Feng.
Now, the old general was killed by this group of rebel soldiers.
No matter what, he had to kill the rebels for the old general and repay the favor.
Five days passed.
The slopes of the mountains are covered with steep rocks.
On the slightly steep slope, more than two thousand soldiers were walking in scattered groups.
The horses were guarded by soldiers and led forward.
This marching route was chosen by Li Qi.
The slopes of the mountains are scattered, making it difficult for them to be ambushed or surrounded and encircled by a large army.
At this time, Lu Yuan was walking barefoot and leisurely on the stones on the mountain.
Although this mountainous area is not easy to walk on, it is much better than the muddy area in Youzhou.
Moreover, the further south you go, the warmer the weather becomes, and you no longer have to endure the damp and cold.
This place is also remote.
After walking here for five days, I didn't see any traces of human beings, let alone bandits or soldiers.
He whispered in his heart: "Panel".
[Host: Lu Yuan]
[Superpowers: Immortality/Infinite Strength]
【Attributes:
Strength: 590】
It’s almost 600 kilograms.
If we go south to Muzhou and it remains peaceful like this, it would seem pretty good.
Just thinking so.
The sound of footsteps.
A dense group of soldiers wearing armor and holding various weapons appeared on the slope further ahead.
One after another, human figures walked quickly down the slope, taking advantage of the terrain.
Shen Yi, with his three thousand elite soldiers, finally caught up with the Tianxing Army.
After he received the request from the General's Mansion to wipe out the Tianxing Rebellion Brigade, he traveled day and night into the mountains to look for any trace of this rebel army.
According to the information obtained by the Zhenjun General's Mansion, this group of Tianxing rebels was heading south to Muzhou.
If they go to Muzhou, they will definitely not take the official road, and will most likely go into the mountains like this.
He sent troops to search the mountains and finally found some traces of marching. He immediately concentrated his forces, marched quickly along a mountain path, and blocked the way here in advance.
Sure enough, they found Tianxing's rebel army marching on the hillside.
He ordered his elite troops to climb up the slope and block this chaotic army.
More than 2,000 soldiers, even if they are quite powerful, can defeat the bandits in Shijin Village.
But he was even more confident about the 3,000 elite soldiers he brought with him.
Even in this complex mountain battle, he was confident that he could at least wipe out half of the enemy!
These elite government soldiers took advantage of the downward momentum and rushed towards Lu Yuan at an extremely fast speed.
The terrain on the mountain was complex and they were attacked suddenly without any preparation. If they ordered a retreat at this time, morale would inevitably be greatly damaged, and they would most likely lose a lot of soldiers, horses and food.
Therefore, Lu Yuan took out the spear from his back and shouted:
"Meet the enemy!".
As they shouted, the weapons of both sides had already clashed. Lu Yuan picked up an attacking soldier with his spear, and then threw the dead soldier onto another attacking soldier.
A man and a corpse rolled down the hillside at the same time, rolling "thump thump thump" to the bottom of the mountain, and neither of them could get up again.
The terrain here is complex, and it is difficult for the enemy to form a siege on him. One or two ordinary soldiers are like chopping melons and vegetables to him.
He raised his bare feet and took the initiative to charge into the attacking camp of soldiers.
The spears whistled in his hands, and one soldier after another was beaten to the point of breaking bones and tendons, and fell down the mountain.
Lu Yuan was having a great time killing.
"Ding~!" sound.
Two green swords blocked the spear he thrust out.
Lu Yuan raised his eyebrows, turned his head and looked at the soldier who was holding his spear.
This man had sharp eyebrows and bright eyes, and a straight body. He looked good-looking, almost comparable to myself who was working as a screwdriver before coming to this world.
Shen Yi saw his subordinates being carried down the mountain one by one by this man, so he stepped forward to fight him.
Although the male and female swords blocked the opponent's spear, the force was too much for him to bear.
He has such great strength and is a man who uses a spear.
Obviously, it was the commander of the Tianxing Rebellion Army who killed General Feng.
Shen Yi gathered all his strength and slowly raised the two swords in his hands, trying to block the opponent's weapons.
But then he heard the other party laugh, and the force on the spear suddenly increased a bit.
He was unable to relieve the force and his footing became unstable, causing him to tumble down the mountain. He used his two swords to hold on to the slope and only then was he able to stop himself from rolling.
Just as he was about to stand up, a black light pierced his head.
He quickly raised his two swords to block.
There was a sound of "ding~!"
The spear pierced the two swords that were raised to block the head.
Shen Yi blocked hastily, but he was on a slope and his feet were not yet firmly planted.
The huge force almost caused the person to fall backwards in the air.
Afterwards, both the man and his weapons were thrown over and rolled up and down.
"General!!"
"Left General!!"
These elite soldiers were horrified when they saw their general being beaten and rolling down the mountain, not knowing whether he was dead or alive.
They no longer had any desire to fight, so they blocked the people around them and quickly ran towards where the general had fallen.
Lu Yuan glanced at the officers and soldiers who had fled, smiled and said:
"Go! Keep moving forward."
Since the last battle at Shijin Village, they lost dozens of soldiers for nothing and have not received any food in the village. They even had to pay for some cotton-padded clothes and cakes.
Lu Yuan no longer had any interest in fighting against soldiers and bandits.
Not to mention if you lose the fight, what can you get if you win?
It's simply a losing business.
He should hurry south to the Tianxing Army headquarters to inherit the family business.
If possible, they would avoid fighting the officers and soldiers who were chasing them.
After receiving the order, the soldiers all quickened their pace, stepping on the rocks and continuing to move forward.
That night.
It was dark.
Bonfires were lit on the mountain.
The soldiers gathered around the campfire, heating the water in the kettles around their waists and eating bread.
The journey was long, so he sat on a tiger-skin blanket seized from Shijin Village, put pieces of dried bacon on the fire, heated them up a little, and stuffed them into his mouth.
Li Qi, who was standing next to him, looked at the bonfire at the foot of the mountain about a mile away and said:
"This group of soldiers is targeting us!"
