"Chase, chase!"
Yang Jian was anxious and rushed with his soldiers. During this process, he kept giving orders and urging.
As Xu Gaoyang's disciple and Xu Gaoyang's confidant, Yang Jian knew about the grudges between his teacher and the Lin family.
Lin Feng must be killed this time.
For the sake of his teacher and his own future, Yang Jian will not leave. The three thousand soldiers under his command were biting Lin Feng's tail and pursued him. Yang Jian chased, but Lin Feng fled. Both sides chased and escaped, and in an instant they reached the east of Wawu Mountain.
The official roads in this area are still relatively wide. After just chasing for a while, the terrain changed and there were sloping hillsides on both sides. Continuing forward, the official road became narrower and narrower from the vastness at the beginning, and the slope became steeper and steeper.
Yang Jian never considered this. In his mind, he was obsessed with chasing Lin Feng and never allowed Lin Feng to escape.
Team, keep moving forward.
There are steep slopes on both sides, there are lush woods on the mountain, and the road is also a narrow road in the mountain. The narrowest place can only accommodate five or six people walking abreast. At the widest point, there are about ten people walking side by side.
As a result, the pursuit team became long and winding, unlike before when the road under Wawu Mountain was wide and the soldiers could spread out.
Yang Jian continued to chase and did not give up.
This is within the Xia Kingdom.
As long as his soldiers bite Lin Feng, Lin Feng will not be able to escape in the end. In Da Qin territory, Yang Jian would no longer pursue him, but now, he must pursue him to the end.
This is opportunity.
Not to be missed.
It was past noon, and the sun was no longer at its zenith. Because it was located in a ravine, the light in the valley was obviously dimmed.
Du Fei, Yang Jian's deputy general, was a little worried and reminded: "General, if we chase us to the valley, will we encounter an ambush?"
"What kind of ambush could there be?"
Yang Jian snorted and said in a deep voice: "Today's Lin Feng is a lost dog. At this time, we cannot miss the opportunity. Lin Feng cannot have an ambush."
"Chase, keep chasing."
"I will chase Lin Feng to the end of the world."
Yang Jian's attitude was firm.
He wasn't even worried at all.
How could a man who fled from Anyi to Jinshan City lay an ambush?
impossible.
When Du Fei saw this, he could only follow along and continue chasing.
The team ran forward for another half-quarter of an hour when they saw a bright light appearing on the official road ahead. Yang Jian was in high spirits and shouted: "Chasing, we can't let Lin Feng escape. This time, Lin Feng must be killed."
Yang Jian and his group rushed forward. When they were approaching the exit, Cui Yuantu stood proudly on the hillside. Seeing that all Lin Feng's men had withdrawn, he decisively ordered: "Push down the stone!"
After the order was issued, the soldiers on the valleys on both sides quickly pushed down the stones that had been prepared.
Boom! ! !
Big rocks rolled down the steep slope.
boom! boom! boom! !
In the blink of an eye, the boulder fell into the canyon.
Big stones piled up on the ground one after another. Although they were messy, these messy big stones in the high valley formed a city wall-like barrier in a short period of time. There are steep slopes on both sides, which are difficult to climb, and when the stones stand, they block the road to the exit.
This scene fell in Yang Jian's eyes.
He was stunned.
Fell into a trap!
He was a veteran in the army. When he saw that the intersection was blocked, and then noticed that the surrounding roads were narrow and even had steep slopes on both sides, he immediately understood.
This is calculated.
Otherwise, Lin Feng would not have arranged it like this.
"General, the ground is full of dead grass."
Suddenly some soldiers shouted again.
Yang Jian led his men to chase before and didn't pay attention at all. Now he looked down carefully and saw that there were dead grass everywhere on the ground. Just because the light was dim and the dead grass on the ground was not piled up in bundles, I didn't pay attention.
The dead grass everywhere made Yang Jian's scalp numb.
Fire attack!
This is the prelude to the fire attack.
"Withdraw troops, withdraw troops quickly!"
Yang Jian shouted and ordered to retreat. The soldiers under his command were also extremely panicked and turned around to retreat.
Cui Yuantu heard the shouts from the bottom of the mountain, but he had a sneer on his face. He wanted to evacuate now, but it was too late.
"Fire the arrow!"
Cui Yuantu gave the order directly.
On the hillsides on both sides, soldiers emerged one after another along the line and quickly fired arrows into the valley.
These are all rockets. The arrows of the bows and arrows are wrapped in cloth and soaked in kerosene. When they encounter an open flame, they burn.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!!"
Bows and arrows flew out from both sides of the hillside and landed in the canyon. In an instant, there was a sound of arrows piercing flesh. Many soldiers were hit by arrows, and some bows and arrows fell to the ground, setting fire to the dead grass on the ground. Because it was a piece of cloth soaked in kerosene, the rocket was not easily extinguished when it landed on the ground, and quickly burned everywhere.
In the canyon, fires began to break out everywhere.
Lin Feng had already left from the exit and climbed up the mountain. He looked at the burning scene in the mountain path. Although the fire was burning everywhere, he was not satisfied and said: "Mr. Cui, smash all the fire oil cans collected to create a momentum."
"Only the fire in the valley can't kill many people. The fire must be used to make the people below keep running away and trampling on each other. Don't hold back. Throw all the pots of kerosene down at once."
Cui Yuantu said: "I humbly obey my orders."
The order was conveyed quickly.
All the clay pots of kerosene placed on the hillside were smashed down, and a clanging sound was heard. The kerosene flowed, and as the rockets fell, the fires burning everywhere became more intense. This fire burned so that wherever the Xia soldiers were in the valley, there were flames burning.
The Xia soldiers were even more panicked, and they all fled desperately. It was precisely this situation. The valley was crowded, and not many people were shot or burned to death. However, due to panic, the crowding and pushing during the continuous retreat caused countless tramples.
After seeing this, Lin Feng led the soldiers directly from the hillside towards the valley intersection where they had retreated earlier.
He had to hurry up and rush over to block the previous entrance.
This is now the exit for Xia soldiers.
Zhao Feixiong also followed Lin Feng, watching the burning scene in the valley, especially the scene of Xia soldiers trampling on each other and fleeing. He sighed with emotion: "The young commander's plan this time is really amazing."
Lin Feng said: "It's not that I'm great. Many people can think of such a strategy. However, someone needs to coordinate. Without Heibingtai secretly bringing in a large amount of kerosene and weapons, and without Heibingtai's map, we would not be able to control the details. Make arrangements based on the information. Only with these can we defeat more with less.”
Zhao Feixiong said: "Young Marshal is too humble."
Lin Feng didn't say anything more. He had promised with Cui Yuantu that Gaoyang would send people to stop them when they were in Anyi.
Sure enough, this happened.
Based on this strategy, it was determined that the people arranged by Xu Gaoyang might have set up an ambush in Wawu Mountain. After all, there is an ambush on this mountain road, which is difficult to hide and easily discovered by spies. Only Wawu Mountain is the most suitable for an ambush.
The reason why Lin Feng was able to use this place was that when Yang Jian was pursuing him, he had already forgotten everything. He only wanted to kill Lin Feng and completely forgot about the situation of this location.
If Yang Jian had been more cautious, Lin Feng's plan would have failed.
Lin Feng and his men hurried on quickly, quickly descended the mountain, and blocked the exit of Yang Jian's army. At this time, no one had escaped.
But in the distance, there was already a sound.
Lin Feng led his men in formation. Surrounding him were Ying Wu, Gao Xiaoyu, Zhao Feixiong, and Jiang Dushan. The main forces were here. Some archers were left on the hillside to continue shooting. .
Lin Feng looked at the valley ahead, and suddenly his eyes lit up. He saw the Xia soldiers escaping in panic.
coming!
Xia soldiers came.
Lin Feng immediately arranged for archers to shoot arrows at the rear, and at the front was a spear array built by soldiers. It was simply impossible for him to organize a spear array solely by relying on Lin Feng. After all, he only brought dry food, bows, arrows, and weapons with him when he evacuated.
More than a hundred spears were sent by people from Heibingtai. More than a hundred soldiers formed a formation and blocked the entrance of the valley. When the first batch of Xia soldiers came to attack, the spearmen all thrust out their spears, one after another, piercing the bodies of the Xia soldiers.
Phew! Phew!
The tip of the spear broke through the armor and penetrated the body.
The Xia soldier at the front fell, and the spear was withdrawn and thrust out again. Such assassinations resulted in many casualties among the Xia soldiers, and many people in the rear were unable to rush out. Especially as there were fires burning in the rear, the casualties of the Xia soldiers continued to increase.
The defense line of soldiers organized by Lin Feng continued to resist. Even if someone occasionally breaks through the defense line composed of spearmen, because Lin Feng, Ying Wu, Gao Xiaoyu and others are there, they will directly kill the soldiers who rush out, so that the defense at the entrance of the valley is still as stable as Mount Tai.
The shouts of killing from the Xia soldiers in the valley have gradually subsided.
Most of the three thousand Xia soldiers died.
Yang Jian was already close to the entrance of the valley, but he was hiding in the crowd. He was panting heavily and looked miserable. Especially seeing that the soldiers were unable to break out of the siege, they felt even more sad.
Lost!
He lost this battle!
So far, the soldiers under his command have suffered numerous casualties and are unable to escape.
"Rush, rush out."
"As long as we rush out, we can return to Jinshan City. Rush for me."
Yang Jian ordered loudly.
The soldiers under his command charged, but such a charge failed to form an offensive, and instead resulted in numerous casualties.
"General, something bad has happened. Lin Feng's people are coming to kill us."
At this moment, Du Fei shouted loudly.
Yang Jian followed the sound and saw that at the entrance of the valley, Lin Feng no longer defended and instead ordered his soldiers to attack. He had just received news about Cui Yuantu on the mountain. The flames in the mountain began to extinguish. Most of the soldiers in the mountain had been killed or injured. He could use his strength to completely wipe out the pursuing soldiers.
Lin Feng led his men to attack, but Yang Jian's soldiers barely resisted, suffering numerous casualties and constantly retreating.
This massacre was even faster.
There are fewer and fewer Xia soldiers left in the valley.
Yang Jian retreated again and again, with an even more sad expression on his face, because he couldn't stop him, especially since his retreat was blocked.
"General, we can't stop you."
"General Yang, we are almost dead, and there are only more than three hundred left. If we continue to fight, we will all die, and no one will survive. Please surrender."
Beside Yang Jian, the generals spoke one by one, all of them giving constant persuasion.
"surrender!"
Yang Jian was also helpless.
He couldn't hold on anymore and directly ordered to surrender. As this order was issued, all Xia soldiers no longer persisted, and hundreds of people threw away their weapons in the valley and knelt on the ground to surrender.
After seeing this, Lin Feng ordered Jiang Dushan to take all the surrendered Xia soldiers out of the valley. Only the remaining three hundred people came out of the mountain and were controlled without any power at all.
Lin Feng glanced over and asked, "Who is the general in charge?"
"I am, I am!"
Yang Jian didn't dare to hide and stood up directly.
He didn't want to come out, but he had no choice, because he couldn't hide and everyone knew he was the commander.
Yang Jian knelt on the ground with a plop and said quickly: "Mr. Lin, my name is Yang Jian. I am willing to submit to Mr. Lin and obey Mr. Lin's arrangements. I am an innate master, I know martial arts, and I can help Mr. Lin."
Lin Feng's eyes were cold and without saying anything, he directly kicked Yang Jian in the Dantian, destroying Yang Jian's martial arts. Ignoring Yang Jian's screams, he looked around and said, "Whoever kills Yang Jian for me can live!"
"I come!"
came a loud voice.
A figure rushed out and landed a punch on Yang Jian's temple.
boom! !
After one punch, Yang Jian screamed, the painful look in his eyes immediately dissipated, and he lost his breath in the blink of an eye. But Yang Jian's face was filled with deep reluctance and despair.
Lin Feng looked at the person who stood up and asked, "What's your name?"
"The villain Du Fei holds the position of captain and is also Yang Jian's deputy general."
Du Fei was in his early thirties and had average talent. He was only an acquired master, but he was also quite brave.
Lin Feng said: "Call out those who are the lowest-level generals in the army among the remaining people."
"Here!"
Du Fei didn't understand what he meant, so he did as he was told.
In a short period of time, all the Xia generals with some status were named, more than forty of them.
Lin Feng glanced over, his eyes cold, and said in a deep voice: "There are more than forty of you, and I allow you to live half of it. If you want to survive, do it yourself. If you don't do it, everyone will die."
brush!
The expressions of the more than forty generals changed drastically, and their eyes turned red. They were shocked inwardly. They did not expect Lin Feng to give such an order.
Some people are thinking, but more people have already taken action. In a short period of time, more than forty people started fighting, desperately and quickly.
Du Fei saw this scene in his eyes and his cheeks twitched. He glanced sideways at Lin Feng, with a touch of horror and awe in his eyes.
He was not a stupid person, and he understood Lin Feng's intention immediately. By killing Yang Jian, he cut off his own retreat and could only follow Lin Feng. Other generals also killed their own comrades. They also cut off their retreat and could only follow Lin Feng.
What a powerful scheming!
What a ruthless method!
Du Fei's heart was awe-inspiring and he didn't dare to have any thoughts anymore.
Cui Yuantu saw this scene in his eyes and nodded slightly. Lin Feng's arrangement was what made things happen. If it were Lin Yuanzhong in the past, if he had such a decisive decision to kill, he would not end up dying on the battlefield.
Jiang Dushan saw it in his eyes, but was in awe in his heart.
Lin Feng wanted to plan Jinshan City, and encircling and suppressing the Xia soldiers who came out to block the attack was the key.
The specifics will depend on Lin Feng's decision. Now that he saw Lin Feng's treatment, Jiang Dushan's impression of Lin Feng changed again. When he was at the Xishan Iron Mine before, the Lin Feng he saw was a powerful martial artist, a strategist, and even a mastermind.
Lin Feng in front of him was determined to kill.
No kindness at all.
Kill if you have to.
Extremely harsh.
Lin Feng looked cold and devoid of any kindness. He went out to fight on the battlefield and even fought for the country. There was no way he could have any kindness, because kindness could not control troops. In particular, Lin Feng must master these people in order to ensure the success of subsequent plans.
Letting Du Fei kill Yang Jian was a means.
Let these people kill each other and kill their own people.
Only in this way can these people's retreat be cut off and everyone can side with Lin Feng.
Lin Feng waited quietly. It didn't take long. Only twenty of the forty people were left, and all of them committed suicide. Each of them looked fierce, even breathing a little quickly, but there was also a touch of relaxation on their faces.
Because I survived.
These people know they are safe.
Lin Feng looked cold and said slowly: "Congratulations, you survived. You are willing to submit to the Great Qin and serve the Great Qin. Next, your task is to capture Jinshan City for the Great Qin."
Du Fei knew he had no way out, so he said directly: "The villain should go all out."
The rest of the people shouted.
They are all people whose hands are stained by their own robes. Can such people return to Xia Kingdom?
impossible.
You can only do as you are told.
Lin Feng continued: "The next arrangement is very simple. Du Fei will take the remaining three hundred soldiers, and I will arrange a few people to mix among you, and escape back with you and enter Jinshan City."
"Don't worry, we won't let you fight with Xu Gaoyang. After you enter the city, the army of Great Qin will attack Jinshan City. When Xu Gaoyang is tired of dealing with it, Du Fei and your people will rush to the granary. , set fire to the granary."
"Can this be done?"
Lin Feng's voice had a hint of coldness.
"able!"
Du Fei answered directly.
He was certain that once he said no, the final result would be to be killed.
The rest of the army generals felt a little bitter when they heard this.
This situation is somewhat difficult.
However, they couldn't refuse.
Lin Feng noticed the expressions of these people and continued: "As long as Jinshan City is captured in this battle and Xu Gaoyang is defeated, those of you who are willing to continue to serve in the army in Daqin will all be promoted to one rank. Those who are unwilling to join the army will be rewarded with ten acres of fertile land. For one hundred taels of silver, I will arrange for you to live in Da Qin. This is my young master’s promise.”
brush!
Everyone present, including Du Fei, suddenly became excited.
Du Fei was originally a school captain. If he could be promoted to a higher rank, that would be a promotion. You know, he was a reduced general from the Xia Kingdom. Naturally, he was extremely excited if he could continue to serve as an official or be promoted in the Qin Dynasty, and so were the other generals.
As for ordinary soldiers, they are also excited. Some want to stay and join the army, while others are willing to farm. Once he doesn't join the army, he will be rewarded with ten acres of fertile land and a hundred taels of silver, which is enough to settle down and marry a wife so that he can live a stable life.
The most important thing is that their task is not difficult, it is just a raid on the granary, and they have help from people arranged by Lin Feng.
This is very safe.
This is how people think. It was difficult before, but now, it feels easy.
Lin Feng saw everyone excited and knew that people's hearts had been won.
Lin Feng looked at Zhao Feixiong and ordered: "Uncle Zhao, I'll leave the next step to you. You take thirty brothers, change clothes, blacken your cheeks, etc., follow Du Fei to Jinshan City, and blend into the army in the city. "
"As you command!"
Zhao Feixiong immediately agreed.
He took the people, quickly refitted, and then fled in a hurry with Du Fei and others.
Lin Feng was also the person who took inventory. At the same time, he further confirmed that there was no one alive at the scene, and then left quickly, heading towards the camp of Wang Lie of Great Qin.
