Chapter 362 The End of Guo Tu
The blood of the battle is still flowing, and the sound of the military is still going strong. -----------Thirty-six rhymes from Tang Du Fu's "On a Windy Boat with a Pillow on the Pillow and a Book Cup Presented to Relatives and Friends in Hunan"
When Xu You went to Chen Long's tent to talk, Chen Long suddenly woke up. His battle in Jizhou had been too smooth, and he had ignored Chunyu Qiong's preference for adventure and Guo Tu's outstanding resourcefulness. If the food road is cut off and the food and grass are burned, the army of more than 100,000 people will not have enough food for three days, and it will be in chaos without a fight.
Chen Long handed over the main force to Tai Shici and Zhou Buji, and led 20,000 elite cavalry. He only took Lu Chang and other special operations troops with him as personal soldiers. Zhou Buji knew that his lord had extraordinary abilities, so naturally he wouldn't worry, but he was worried for Guo Tu.
Chen Long's cavalry galloped until dawn, but there was still no sign of the enemy, so they ordered a temporary rest.
Chen Long chewed the dried meat and lamented in his heart that at this time of the war, food and grass were too important, and it affected the coach's nerves all the time. I still don't pay enough attention to the protection of grain roads. Once an advantage appears, the trapped enemy will inevitably attack his own food channel.
Guo Tu set up camp and blocked the mountain pass outside Huilong Village, waiting for the arrival of the Montenegrin military ration truck. Lu Kuang looked out from the high slope on the left side of the valley. In the morning mist, grain trucks finally appeared. Lu Kuang immediately asked the messenger to send a signal to his brothers and Guo Tu, and everyone was ready to fight.
Lu Kuang and Lu Xiang each prepared several rows of archers. At this time, they were lying in the ditch on the side of the mountain, and everyone was surrounded by rockets. When Guo Tu heard the news in the camp, he immediately went out of his tent to take a look at the sky. The sky was getting brighter and brighter, but the sun was hidden in a few dark clouds on the horizon and never appeared. Guo Tu looked at the dark clouds worriedly and silently prayed to God not to rain.
In the rear of the Black Mountain Army, Zhang Yan personally defended Puyang, and Zhencheng also provided support. The rear area was impregnable. The good news from the front in Yecheng came frequently, and the rear was also rejoicing. Zhang Yan personally raised this batch of grain and grass, totaling 50,000 shi, and filled nearly 500 grain trucks. Five thousand people were led by Zhang Yan's generals Bai Rao and Tao Sheng, and the civilians More than 20,000 people were escorted to the front line.
Although Bai Rao and Tao Sheng were unknown and their martial arts skills were average, they were both hard-working people and set out early in the morning to drive the grain cart. I think that these two people were also the leaders of the Yellow Turban bandits at that time. The activity areas of the Black Mountain Army were in the valleys of the Taihang Mountains in Zhongshan, Changshan, Zhaojun, Shangdang, Hanoi and other places. Bai Rao and Tao Sheng were once the kings of the mountains. , were all conquered by Zhang Yan.
Bai Yao was in front and Tao Sheng was behind, leading the grain cart into the valley. Seeing that there were high mountains on both sides and the terrain was dangerous, Bai Rao couldn't help but hesitate a little. Then he shook his head and secretly laughed at himself for being nervous. He was making great progress ahead and won consecutive victories. What else could he be suspicious of? He shook his head with a smile and continued to wave his hands to urge the follow-up food supply. The car goes fast.
The grain trucks and the five thousand grain protection troops were scattered for more than ten miles, completely out of line. The grain truck was nearly halfway into the valley when the scouts from the front suddenly came back in panic and shouted: "General Bai, a stronghold has been set up blocking the road at the entrance of the valley ahead. I don't know who built it!"
Bai Rao was shocked, secretly shouting that something was wrong, and shouted, "Don't be so frightened! Can you tell what kind of flag it is? What kind of armor?" The scout shook his head and said, "The stronghold has ceased its flags and drums, and there is not a single soldier in sight!"
Bai Rao became more and more panicked. He raised his spear on his horse and shouted: "Stop the entire army! Get out of the valley mouth immediately!" As soon as the order was given, the grain trucks in front quickly turned around. The grain trucks behind did not know what was going on and continued to move forward. After a while, the grain truck became a mess.
Bai Rao complained in his heart that with so many grain trucks, it was impossible to turn around and run away so fast, so he had to quickly ask the ordering soldiers to run back while giving orders to retreat.
Tao Sheng was still more than ten miles away, and just as he entered the valley, there was a sudden sound like the earth was shattering, and many boulders rolled down from the mountains on both sides, which just sealed Tao Sheng's follow-up troops in the valley. Bai Rao and Tao Sheng were in front and behind each other, making a mess at the same time. Just as they were shouting, the horn sounded above their heads, and the first round of rockets had already been suppressed from the air.
The Montenegrin military ration truck was in flames in an instant. There was no way to fight back and no place to hide. The soldiers were like headless flies, running all over the mountains and valleys. Unfortunately, there was nowhere to hide. Countless people were hit by arrows and caught fire. They all lay on the ground, wailing and waiting for death.
Bai Rao was also burned with holes all over his body. He shouted at the top of his lungs and summoned civilians to put out the fire. Unfortunately, the rockets didn't seem to stop at all, and the fire was getting bigger and bigger. Bai Rao took a bad look and remembered that the fortress in front seemed to be empty, maybe it was used to scare people. Bai Rao organized his troops, pulled some grain trucks that were not on fire and rushed out of the sea of fire, rushing towards the Dazhai in front, thinking Rushing into the empty stronghold to resist, hope could not help but ignite in my heart.
Bai Yao took the lead and rushed forward. Behind him, more and more grain trucks and troops gathered, and they surged forward together. Seeing the Dazhai in the distance, suddenly war drums sounded in the Dazhai, many flags were erected, and many archers appeared on the fence of the village. Bai Rao felt a chill in his heart and quickly reined in his horse. Then there was another loud noise. Bai Rao and his horse fell into a huge trap. A subsequent grain truck couldn't avoid it and fell into the trap. Poor Montenegrin king Bai Rao, now Bai Rao was spared and was crushed to death by a grain truck in a trap.
Tao Sheng in the back was not much better. He hid behind a boulder and barely managed to save his life. The rockets on the mountain finally stopped, the horns sounded again, and only the shouts of killing were heard. Lu Kuang and Lu Xiang led their troops to kill from the two mountains.
There were no soldiers around Tao Sheng. He was trembling with fear and wanted to find a crack in the rocks to crawl in and escape. It was not in vain that he called Tao Sheng. Sure enough, he found a stone cave and the general got into it.
Guo Tu personally directed the soldiers in the village to fire arrows from the high platform in the village, and had a clear view of the situation in the valley. Seeing the chaos in the valley and the fire everywhere, he knew that his clever plan had been completed, and he felt extremely proud. Dragon Ball, Dragon Ball, if you don’t retreat, will you starve to death just waiting?
Guo Tu couldn't help but laugh when he thought of the wonderful thing. Before his laughter faded, suddenly several soldiers behind him ran to the foot of the high platform and said angrily: "Commander Guo, something bad has happened! Countless men and horses have come from behind the stronghold and have broken through the rear camp. ! The first general is incredibly brave!"
Guo Tu's troops were all in the front camp, and there were only a few soldiers behind him. Hearing this, he was shocked and said: "Where did the soldiers and horses come from?" He quickly rolled down the high platform and sent an order to mobilize the troops in front to move back to resist.
It turned out that Chen Long urged the troops to move forward. Suddenly he saw black smoke coming from behind the valley in front. He felt bad and ordered the whole army to advance at full speed. Chen Long took the lead and rushed to the area where the incident occurred. He saw a village fence blocking the road ahead. He knew it was coming and did not stop. His horse jumped up and swept the gun with all his strength, knocking away a row of fences and revealing a large wall of more than ten feet. Neutral.
Twenty thousand cavalry, like wind and lingering clouds, wiped out the few soldiers in the rear camp. At this time, Guo Tu's general order had just been issued to the front army, and Chen Long's cavalry had already arrived like a tide.
The archers of the Jizhou Army didn't even have time to release their arrows. The shiny sabers were already in front of them. They heard a series of puffs and puffs, the sound of sabers piercing flesh. Before Guo Tujun could resist, he was already rushed into the army by the cavalry. , quickly cut into several strands. Guo Tu's army was immediately in chaos. The cavalry dealt with these archers like chopping melons and vegetables. The little resistance Guo Tu organized fell apart in an instant.
At this time, Guo Tu had returned to the high platform, holding a long sword reserved for civil servants in his hand. Looking at the chaotic Jizhou soldiers and the Black Mountain cavalry below, his hands could not help but tremble. The sky became darker and darker, and a heavy rain seemed to be brewing. Guo Tu looked up to the sky and sighed, couldn't God help?
There was a thunderclap in the sky, heavy rain poured down in an instant, and the fires in the grain trucks were immediately extinguished. Guo Tu's face was covered with water, and he couldn't tell whether it was tears or rain in the heavy rain. His men forced him to get off the high platform to escape. Just as he was mounting his horse, a horse suddenly came flying towards him. He stopped me with a steel gun in his hand and shouted: "Guo Tu, you are trying to burn my food and grass. Where else do you want to escape?"
If you want to know what happens next, listen to the explanation next time.
