"Quickly, put out the torch and run!"
Shi Wengong didn't expect that there would be an ambush, so he threw the torch to the ground with a roar. It was too obvious to light a torch in this dark night. Qinbei Pavilion
The torch touched the muddy ground full of rain, and a "sting" sound was heard. The torch was immediately extinguished, and the world fell into darkness again, and it returned to the state where you could not see your fingers.
The darkness gave everyone in Zengtou City a sense of security, as if they were safe in this dark night.
"ignition!"
Du Bo yelled, Zeng Toushi put out the torch, and they lit it up.
The torches were lit, and everyone led the soldiers into the flock and massacred the people in Zengtou City.
"Let's go!"
Zeng Tu led everyone in another direction to escape.
"kill!"
Lu Zhishen, Wu Song, Wang Jin, Sun An, Shi Jin, Jiao Ting, Shi Xiu, Xu Ning, Deng Fei, Li Kui, Bao Xu, Xiang Chong, Deng Fei, Yang Chun, Chen Da and others lit torches and blocked the way. In front of everyone in Zengtou City.
"what to do?"
Zeng Mi looked at Zeng Tu and Shi Wengong with a horrified look. There were enemies on all sides now, and they had no way to escape.
"Spread out and run! Assemble at Zengtou City!"
Zeng Tu looked at his four younger brothers and shouted that it was still night, and the enemies were holding torches to kill everyone. As long as they spread out and ran away, they would always be able to escape without the torches.
Several people each chose a direction where there was no firelight and fled.
When Shi Wengong and Su Ding saw this, they also blended into the darkness and fled.
The Zengtou City army without a command was scurrying around like headless flies. When they encountered the Liangshan army, they now saw tigers and wolves.
…
Gaotangzhou.
"Report, the Zengtou City army was blocked by the enemy thirty miles away and killed!"
Zhou Jin reported to Li Cheng.
"There is indeed an ambush!"
Li Cheng said with narrowed eyes while looking at the direction where Zengtou City's army was leaving.
"There is an ambush in Liangshan!"
Song Jiang and Lu Junyi's expressions changed.
"Sun Lei has done so many things, do you think he just did it unintentionally? Now there is so much water in the city, isn't it just forcing us to leave? There are more than 40,000 troops in the city, why does he have 15,000 troops to attack the city? "
Li Cheng looked at Song Jiang and Lu Junyi and said, these two people are still a bit ignorant and have no military knowledge at all.
"Send the order, the entire army will leave the city from the west gate and return to Daming Mansion!"
Li Cheng looked at Song Jiang and Lu Junyi and said.
Gao Lian looked at the leaving Daming Mansion soldiers and horses with a gloomy expression. He also received the news that the Zengtou City army was attacked by Sun Lei.
"Brother-in-law, what should we do if we're all gone?"
Yin Tianci looked at Gao Lian and asked. He thought that everything would be fine once the reinforcements arrived, but now that the reinforcements have gone, their Gaotang Prefecture has become an isolated city again.
"What to do? Let's go! Go back to Tokyo! I don't believe Sun Lei dares to go to Tokyo."
Gao Lian looked at Wei Dingguo and Shan Yangui and ordered that he was not prepared to die in Gaotangzhou.
"You all think I'm stupid? A bunch of stupid people! You go and die first, and when you lure Sun Lei away, I'll leave! Hahaha!"
Gao Lian laughed when he saw everything. He did not stop the Zengtou City and Damingfu troops from leaving. Instead, he pretended to defend the city. The purpose was to let Zeng Tu and Li Cheng divert Sun Lei's army.
"Brother-in-law is amazing!"
Yin Tianci was flattering. Going to Tokyo was much better than being in Gaotang Prefecture. They were protected by Gao Qiu in Tokyo and they had nothing to fear. Tokyo was as prosperous as a hundred Gaotang Prefectures.
"Do you know now?"
Gao Lian smiled proudly. He didn't care about Gaotangzhou. As long as he took the "rebel" Chai Jin to Tokyo, it would be a great achievement.
…
The sky turned white, and the sun couldn't be seen in the gloomy space, which was hazy.
"Brother, almost all of them were killed, and the rest ran away!"
Jiao Ting came to report.
"It doesn't matter. Get all the horses out and don't get hurt in the water."
Sun Lei nodded. Everyone in Zengtou City did not need to rush to kill them all. The monk could escape but not the temple. When the matter was over, he could kill them all in Zengtou City.
Everyone used tools to remove the nails that fixed the chains. The logs lost their hold on the chains and soon floated away with the current.
"Brother, they are all excellent war horses!"
Lu Fang and Guo Sheng drove their horses to Sun Lei. This time all the 6,000 horses in Zengtou City were here, which could be regarded as a big fortune.
"It's a pity that many of these horses are injured. If they are not taken care of properly, they may leave the root of the disease."
Sun Lei looked at the war horses and said with regret. Although he had tried his best to avoid injuring the war horses during the night's battle, some things could not be completely avoided. After being injured and soaked in dirty water, it was summer, and the war horses would be disabled as soon as the wounds became inflamed. .
"Brother, I have a good friend in Dongchang Mansion named Huangfuduan. This man is good at looking at horses. He knows the symptoms of cold and heat in the head and mouth. He can cure them all with medicine and acupuncture. He is really talented. He is originally from Youzhou. He has blue eyes and a yellow beard, so he is nicknamed Purple Beard Uncle because he looks like a foreigner and has blue eyes and a yellow beard."
Zhang Qing cupped his fists and said to Sun Lei.
"Maybe Brother Zhang Qing invited him here?"
Sun Lei looked at Zhang Qing. If this person helps, then the war horses will not have to worry about illness. This is a rare talent for Liangshan, which lacks war horses.
"If I make good friends with him, I can ask him to lead his wife and children up the mountain together."
Zhang Qing nodded.
"Okay, brother Zhang Qing, please go and invite me. I, Liangshan Bo, will not treat him badly!"
Sun Lei looked at Zhang Qing and said.
After arranging things, Sun Lei went to the battlefield again.
"What? Everyone is frowning? We killed four to five thousand enemies in this battle. It's a great victory!"
Sun Lei looked at Lu Zhishen, Du Bo and others and asked.
"Brother, these Jurchens in Zengtou City are completely different from the Jurchens in Liaodong."
Du Bo looked at Sun Lei and said.
"The Jurchen in Liaodong is like a jackal with red eyes. Even a small soldier will rush forward to fight for his life. Even four or five people may not be able to stop his ferocious posture. But these things in front of him..."
Lu Zhishen looked at the Jurchens from Zengtou City on the ground and shook his head and said, the difference in combat power is really huge.
"It's normal. The environment determines the characteristics of the group. Last year, the Jurchens in Liaodong were still living among the white mountains and black waters, fighting against everything in the world and not having enough to eat. If they were not fierce enough and not strong enough, they would have died in the snow and wind. It was in the mouth of a ferocious beast.”
"Those who survive in that environment are like veterans who have survived hundreds of battles. Their combat effectiveness is unrivaled. These Jurchens in Zengtou City have been in the Central Plains for more than ten years. They are used to living a comfortable life. They have long lost their teeth and teeth." The old wolf has claws."
Sun Lei said, Zengtou City's combat power was only comparable to that of soldiers from the Central Plains, and was incomparable to the real girls who survived in the harsh environment.
"What my brother said is absolutely true. In the early years, the Khitans and Xixia people were unstoppable, but later they gradually got used to it, and the Khitans' combat power has also declined significantly in these years."
Wang Jin opened his mouth and said, in recent years, the Western Army has been able to suppress the Xixia people, and the battles between the border army and the Khitan people also had their own victories and defeats.
"elder brother!"
Ma Ling's shout came.
"Taoist Master Ma, you are so good at floating on water!"
Seeing Ma Ling running across the water, as if he was floating on the water, he said with a smile.
