Liang Shitai ordered the army to stop temporarily and looked at the dense forest in front of him with a complicated expression. If you break in without permission, you may be in danger of being wiped out! If you don't enter the dense forest, you will just watch the bandits escape, and your heart will be full of reluctance!
When he was at a loss, Yang Zhi came to Liang Shitai and said to him:
Our army is at a disadvantage. If the rebels set fire to it, a spark will turn into a raging sea of flames. I thought we could avoid the sharp edge temporarily and then take a quick detour to reach the upwind point of the dense forest. Set a fire so that the thieves in the dense forest will die without a place to die!
As soon as these words came out, Yang Zhi surrendered and returned to where he led the army. Liang Shitai was thinking a lot, thinking about the pros and cons... If Yang Zhi said it, he could make the thieves in the dense forest notice it and escape!
"Yes, there is a way."
When Liang Shitai was thinking, he suddenly thought of a way. He summoned Yang Zhi and ordered him to lead a group of soldiers to cook on the spot. He used drag-and-drop tactics to lure the thieves in the dense forest and continue to ambush.
Liang Shitai, on the other hand, led a thousand elite soldiers and headed west quickly, detouring behind the dense forest and taking advantage of the wind to light fires and burn out the thieves ambush in the dense forest.
This plan is very good. If it works, all the thieves in the dense forest can be killed and they will die without a place to die.
"Yang Zhi, the task of luring the enemy is entrusted to you. If the enemy comes out of the dense forest, you should run away quickly..."
After Liang Shitai finished speaking, he led a group of elite soldiers and detoured to the back of the dense forest. Whether it succeeds or not depends on fate!
Waiting to see Yang Zhichu, after receiving Liang Shitai's order, he arranged for a group of soldiers to rest and recuperate on the spot, and then started cooking on the fire. The rising smoke made the thieves lurking in the dense forest feel itchy and wanted to light a fire immediately. , burning Yang Zhi's army to pieces.
But Yang Zhijun is not within the range of flammable materials. Even if the fire spreads, they still have a chance to escape!
"Don't be impatient, just wait..."
Sun Hua suppressed the anxiety in his heart and comforted Zhao Wanhai who wanted to lead the charge. The time is not ripe at this time. If you are not reckless, you will miss the opportunity!
Zhao Wanhai sighed, nodded to express his understanding, and then suppressed his violent temper. Lying quietly in the dense forest, setting up an ambush.
The soldiers of the rebel army all cast their eyes in the direction of Yang Zhi's army in the distance, watching them cooking on the fire, smoke rising from the cooking pots, and relishing the food (I just made up my mind).
An hour passed, and Yang Zhi's army had already eaten, but no flames were seen in the dense forest. It seems that Liang Shitai has not reached the back of the dense forest yet, so he has to wait a little longer!
Yang Zhi sighed, having an uneasy thought in his heart that he couldn't express. In desperation, he could only lead a group of soldiers to continue doing some scattered things. The purpose was to delay time and create opportunities for Liang Shitai to annihilate the thieves ambushing in the dense forest.
Let's look at Liang Shitai. Since his departure, he led a thousand elite troops to attack. In less than an hour, he arrived near the back of the dense forest. He ordered the soldiers to lay down the kerosene and flammable materials they carried with them, then light the torches and prepare to burn the Fenggao dense forest.
Just as the torches were burning, the soldiers were about to ignite the flammable materials laid out. An arrow shot out of the air and shot the soldier holding the torch, causing the torch to fall on the dead soldier and be extinguished for unknown reasons...
"No, there's a thief ambushing us."
Both Liang Shitai and Yang Zhi made mistakes. In addition to ambushing in the dense forest, the thieves also continued to ambush on the road after passing through the dense forest.
No, Liang Shitai's army had just arrived and the thieves already knew about it. Seeing that they wanted to set fire to the forest and kill Sun Hua, Zhao Wanhai and others, they naturally refused. One arrow shot successfully stopped Liang Shitai's army from burning the forest!
Needless to say, the ambush thieves were none other than Li Chui, Chen Youliang, Chen Sheng and other generals.
Liang Shitai himself was a little panicked and didn't know what to do! Setting fire to the dense forest is a top priority, otherwise Yang Zhichu will be in danger. Even if Yang Zhi leads the army to escape, when the bandit army comes back and sees that he is leading a thousand soldiers to fight against the bandits, he will definitely join the battle circle. At that time, the bandits will be outnumbered and will not be their opponents!
He was so anxious that he watched the rebels getting closer and closer, and even bent his bow to shoot arrows and kill his own soldiers. Liang Shitai shouted angrily and ordered a hundred soldiers to stay where they were and light up the flames.
(It takes more time for a spark to spread into a sea of fire. In order to start a fire in a dense forest in a short time, it needs to burn more places)
Liang Shitai himself led the remaining soldiers to kill the rebels. The two big hammers in his hands dance like tigers and tigers in the wind, and anyone who touches them will definitely die!
At this time, there were only more than 800 generals under Liang Shitai's command. I don’t know what will happen after facing Chen Shengjun...
The weak defeats the strong, and the few defeat the many. There have been rumors since ancient times, but such deeds cannot happen everywhere, and they cannot happen in every battle!
In every battle, there are only a handful of generals who can defeat the enemy with a small number and win a complete victory, even in the entire history.
Liang Shitai led the army to fight out, but Chen Sheng and others were not to be outdone. Just call a few generals, Zhou Zhang, Zhang Er, Deng Zong, and Ge Ying, and order them to lure Liang Shitai into a trap!
"Han dog, if you have the ability, try fighting me. I will definitely beat you to the ground!"
Zhang Er was so arrogant that he started shouting a few feet away from Liang Shitai, shouting that he would use Liang Shitai's three-legged cat kung fu and that he would hit ten of them, and each one would leave teeth on the ground.
As soon as these words came out, Liang Shitai was stunned for a moment, and then became furious, with a ferocious expression on his face. Swirling the big hammer in his hand, he rushed directly towards Zhang Er!
Zhang Er was no match for Liang Shitai. He was surprised and happy to see Liang Shitai riding towards him. He quickly harnessed his good horse and ran towards the trap that had been arranged...
At this time, Liang Shitai was so angry that his IQ was not online. He didn't even think about the trap set by the rebel army, and he only pursued Zhang Er.
That ear ran farther and farther, even if Liang Shitai had a precious horse under his crotch, it would be difficult to catch up. If this continues, Zhang Er will escape from under his nose!
"Thief, take a beating from me"
Liang Shitai swung the huge hammer in his hand. Zhang Er was unable to dodge and was hit in the back by the hammer, knocking him off his horse and dying.
The thief was dying, but Liang Shitai would not let him go. He rushed closer and killed one of his heads. Zhang Er died, and Chen Sheng's army lost another general!
Although Zhang Er died, he lured Liang Shitai to the edge of the trap. If he walked two or three feet away, he and his horse would fall into the trap.
Killing the enemy general, Liang Shitai's anger dissipated! Thinking of the eight hundred soldiers, he hurriedly returned.
Before he had gone two feet, Ge Ying and Zhou Zhang appeared. He verbally provoked Liang Shitai and continued to abuse him with obscene words!
Chen Sheng, Li Chui, Chen Youliang and other senior generals even came out in agreement. Just to lure Liang Shitai into a trap...
Liang Shitai didn't know how serious the thief was. When he saw that the thief general dared to show up, he was very excited. He was thinking about how to capture Chen Sheng and others and go back to claim credit!
The eight hundred soldiers were also near Liang Shitai at this time, guarding the general.
"Report to the general, the fire in the dense forest is raging, and it has become a sea of fire! We can retreat and join General Yang Zhi..."
The confidant soldiers reported the news, and Liang Shitai nodded in agreement. Just as he was about to lead his army back, Chen Sheng led his army to kill him and got into a melee with Liang Shitai's 800 soldiers!
"Damn it, the thief is looking for death!"
Liang Shitai watched his soldiers fall into a pool of blood one after another, furious, his eyes split open. The hammer flew in his hand, like the God of Death reappearing, and anyone who touched it would die!
When the melee broke out, Chen Shengjun and Zhou Zhang came to Liang Shitai's side and continued to provoke him. Coupled with the ridicule of Chen Sheng and Chen Youliang, eight hundred soldiers died one after another...
Liang Shitai's eyes were already red with blood, and the BMW on his hip sped out, chasing after Zhou Zhang.
"Boom"
There was a loud noise on the ground, and then a big hole collapsed. The hammer flew out of Liang Shitai's hand and smashed Zhou Zhang to death. At the same time, he also fell into the trap of the bandits.
Thanks to the BMW on his crotch that cushioned him, he was prevented from falling into the trap!
As for the eight hundred soldiers, they saw that their leader was in trouble. They came to support and rescue one after another, but Chen Sheng and other thieves and soldiers were outnumbered, and the thieves came out in a swarm. In less than half an hour, all the eight hundred soldiers were dead...
At this time, on the battlefield, the fire in the dense forest was difficult to control, and a single spark had turned into a prairie fire. With the help of the wind, the entire dense forest was no longer green, and the scorching waves of flames hit their faces. Sun Hua and Zhao Wanhai were terrified, and their soldiers fled in all directions, panicking and choosing their way out.
The sea of fire took advantage of the wind and swallowed up Sun Hua and Zhao Wan's pirate army in the blink of an eye! The second general couldn't escape even if he wanted to. He could only watch the people in the sea of fire constantly wailing, cursing, crying for their mothers... and finally disappearing into the ashes.
The dense forest was scorched black, and the smell of meat spread in the forest, which was disgusting! The bandit army was completely wiped out. Yang Zhi and other soldiers were excited, waiting for the return of Liang Shitai's army.
However, half an hour passed and the sky was getting dark!
Waiting hard to no avail, Liang Shitai and others have not returned. Yang Zhi was so panicked that he quickly sent out a scout team of fifty people through the dense forest to look for Liang Shitai's army...
Yang Zhi's move was just a waste of time. All Liang Shitai's soldiers were killed, and he himself was captured alive by Chen Youliang and brought back to Prince Chishilang's place!
He wanted to use Liang Shitai to exchange benefits with Yuan Jun.
The scouts searched everywhere to no avail. When they returned to Yang Zhi, they said to him:
The corpses of our own soldiers were found in the outer circle of the dense forest, but the leader Liang Shitai was missing... and a huge trap was also found. Liang Shitai may be in danger.
Hearing this, Yang Zhi was stunned like a thunderbolt. What kind of talent does Hammer general Liang Shitai have? The lord admires him well and has great martial arts skills. Today I don’t know whether I will live or die!
"No! We must save General Liang Shitai."
Yang Zhi was frightened, and he raised his arms and shouted, leading the army to follow the tracks of the bandit army and march to the north.
The outcome of this battle is hard to say. Killing the two generals Sun Hua and Zhao Wanhai could have been a great victory...but the fact that the main general Liang Shitai was not known whether he was alive or dead greatly compromised the victory.
Let us turn our perspective to Chen Shengjun!
After Liang Shitai fell into the trap, Chen Sheng arranged for his subordinates to set up a fishing net formation to capture Liang Shitai alive and hand over his big hammer.
Take him to Wang Bo...
Along the way, Chen Youliang tried hard to persuade Liang Shitai to surrender. However, Liang Shitai was unmoved, and even said nothing, as if he was watching Chen Youliang's show!
This made Chen Youliang so angry that he almost dragged Liang Shitai out and killed him. Thanks to Chen Sheng and Li Chui being informed of the situation, they rushed to stop Liang Shitai and saved Liang Shitai's life.
Liang Shitai entered the bandit camp without saying a word!
This made Chen Sheng and others helpless. It was useless to give him all the hard work. They could only take him to Wang Bo to claim credit.
A living Liang Shitai is far more useful than a dead Liang Shitai. When it comes to exchanging generals, Chen Shengjun's Qin Jia is captured and can be exchanged for Liang Shitai!
When it comes to getting a chance to survive, Yuan Jun treats his soldiers like sons, let alone his generals! He will definitely let Chen Sheng and others live for Liang Shitai...
The plan to capture Liang Shitai alive was proposed by Li Chui, a poisonous scholar. This shows the benefits of having a highly intelligent military advisor in the army!
The bandits marched all the way north to where King Chishiro was hiding. And Yang Zhi's army also followed closely, relying on the traces left by Chen Shengjun.
Looking at the rebel army, after Chen Sheng captured Liang Shitai, he sent his men to report the battle situation and inform Wang Bo.
Although the two generals Sun Hua and Zhao Wanhai died, capturing a senior general of the Yuan Army is not bad! Besides, the death of the two generals Sun and Zhao had nothing to do with Chen Sheng, Wu Guang and others, and Wang Bo could not blame them.
(After Wu Guang planned a strategy for General Sun Zhao, he returned to Chen Sheng’s army. Therefore, he did not die in the sea of fire!)
Three Sun Huas and three Zhao Wanhai combined may not be able to beat Liang Shitai... This shows Liang Shitai's strength.
Transfer to Prince Chishiro's office and receive the report from Chen Shengjun. Hearing that Zhao Wanhai and Sun Hua had died as their trusted generals, they were furious and shouted to lead the army to kill Qi Jiguang, then attack Tao Qian, seize Xuzhou, and march to Yuzhou!
Later, when I saw Chen Sheng and others capturing Liang Shitai, I couldn't help but turn my anger into joy. I praised Chen Sheng for his level of intelligence and bravery, and he would definitely give him a good reward when he was introduced.
The Battle of Xuzhou became increasingly chaotic! At this time, Qi Jiguang had received Yang Zhi's report on the battle situation, and he was full of praise for Liang Shitai's fire attack and annihilation of the traitor army ambushed in the dense forest.
But when he heard that Liang Shitai had been captured, Qi Jiguang was shocked. Liang Shitai is the most powerful general under his command. The Battle of Xuzhou is not over yet, if the fierce general dies!
Then the battle of Xuzhou will be difficult to continue...The rebels have many soldiers and generals, and Qi Jiguang's battle is already extremely difficult. The support army had not arrived yet, so Qi Jiguang had given up support and could only rely on Tao Qian's Xuzhou Army to jointly destroy the enemy.
Who didn't know that Yuzhou sent three brothers Tian Yunpeng to support the army?
After leaving Yuzhou, we went all the way east and were about to arrive at Taishan County. They had no idea that there were bandits entrenched in Taishan County, and they still wanted to go south to join Qi Jiguang's army!
Under some circumstances, maybe Liang Shitai will be saved...
