"what happened?"
Cai Meng, who was outside the forest, looked high-spirited just now, but at this moment, when he heard the sudden shocking sound of killing on the mountain, he was a little confused.
Logically speaking, it’s about time. Those damn rebels have nothing to do anymore and will only wait until tomorrow to be completely wiped out.
"Haha, I understand." After thinking about it, Cai Meng laughed.
Someone next to me asked.
Cai Meng stretched out his hand and pointed, "I told you earlier, I, Cai Meng, am also familiar with the art of war. If not, how could I have won this huge military exploit? I tell you, this is a trapped beast of the rebels." Fight. I knew there was no hope, so I decided to fight to the death."
"But it's useless, it's useless. I, Cai Meng, have already laid out a dragnet. These thieves don't even have weapons and armor, how can they break up my army formation!"
"Send the order and quickly kill the rebels who broke out! Not even a fly can fly out! Don't forget that during the rebellion, military merit is the most valuable!"
Cai Meng was very confident, but some mud-legged sea people had no confidence to block his army.
But not long after, a piece of information came, making Cai Meng stagger a few steps in shock.
According to intelligence, the Mufeng tribe of Shanyue people has joined the rebels in rebellion. Relying on their familiarity with the mountains and forests, although their numbers are small, they are extremely fierce.
"Mufeng Tribe... damn, I, Cai Meng, am so confused!" Cai Meng's face turned pale, "Mufeng Tribe is Fefu's own tribe! If I had known this, I would have wiped out the Mufeng Tribe too! "
"General! The rebels on the west side of the mountain forest fought fiercely. They took advantage of the mountain and used fire to break up our army's formation!"
"What kind of fire? It's just some burned wooden stakes." Cai Meng gritted his teeth. Unconsciously, a chill rose from the soles of my feet to the top of my head.
I had been thinking about military exploits before. In fact, if the suppression of the bandits fails, his fate will be more serious, not only as simple as dismissal, but also at the risk of losing his head.
"Quick, there's no need to surround the mountain now, gather the troops together and kill them all! Kill all the rebels tonight!"
Although the safest decision has been made, the battlefield is changing rapidly. Without waiting for the army surrounding the mountain to gather back for reinforcements, more and more gaps have been opened, and the blood has been cut out.
"General Cai, the rebels are about to break out! If these people are allowed to go into the mountains, it will be even harder to hunt them down!"
"What, what's going on?" Cai Meng was startled, and when he raised his head, his face turned pale.
At this time, more and more corpses were rolling down in the mountains and forests from time to time. There were sea people, warriors from the Mufeng tribe, and Shu soldiers, but most of them were the corpses of the counter-rebels.
Along with it, there were also those simple fires that hit a certain stone tip and were smashed into pieces.
To avoid forest fires, Lu Xiong did not abuse these fires. But it was very wise to stop immediately after tearing apart the enemy's encirclement and suppression.
But even so, there were still a lot of fires nearby.
Under the flames soaring into the sky, the fighting between the two sides was far from ending. As if they were a relentless enemy, both sides were fighting to the death, with heads and blood drops splattering all around from time to time.
Even Fei Xiu, regardless of his frail body, raised his wooden stick and, protected by others, knocked a Wuzhou junior general to death.
"Old leader, General Lu of Western Shu told us to retreat deep into the mountains and forests first."
Fei Xiu's expression was unwilling. He turned his head and looked at the counter-rebel camp under the mountain forest. Desperate for revenge, he almost couldn't help but give the order and rush down the mountain.
But in the end, he held it back and held back the tears in his eyes. The leader of the Mufeng tribe turned around bitterly, followed Lu Xiong with only six or seven hundred warriors left, and prepared to retreat deep into the mountains and forests.
Lu Xiong told him that avenging Feifu was not only a matter for the Mufeng tribe, but also for the entire Western Shu.
"Retreat, lead the way for the army, and enter the mountains first!" Fei Xiu shouted in a hissing voice.
After killing two or three groups of enemy troops, the vast number of troops, whether they were Shu soldiers, Haimin, or Shanyue people of the Mufeng tribe, followed the breakout opening and hurriedly retreated into the mountains.
There was a counter-rebellion camp to pursue, but they had just chased them out two miles away. In the dark night, Fu Gong was immediately hidden and killed a large number of them.
Outside the forest, Cai Meng got the information and stamped his feet in anger. Once the rebels enter the mountains, countering the rebellion will be even more difficult.
"Chase, keep chasing! Catch them!" After hesitating again and again, Feife gave the order desperately. He was worried that if he lost his target, he would have to spend a lot of effort to detect the traces.
"No, General Cai! Don't chase the poor bandits!"
"I can't care less! I'm waiting for more than 30,000 people to quell the rebellion. If nothing is done, the Lord will definitely be furious! At worst, after you return to the states, you can recruit new troops to replenish the number. I have done this before, No problem."
Under Cai Meng's persuasion, the order was quickly conveyed, and there were only more than 20,000 counter-rebellion troops left. They could only continue to obey the order, follow the direction in which the rebels left, and pursue them all the way.
…
"Idiot, this mediocre general!"
tread.
A powerful horse stopped steadily as the reins were tightened. Kang Zhu, who was on the horse, took the secret report in his hand and only glanced at it for a few times before he couldn't help but curse.
"Cai Meng, this fool, missed a big deal! He dared to encircle the mountain because he was not well-equipped! Encircling the mountain was enough, but the number of spies sent out first was less than a hundred. What kind of general is he!"
Kang Zhu closed his eyes and coldly tore the secret letter into pieces.
At this time, there is still a long way to go before the front line of suppressing bandits. But I have heard a lot of bad news one after another. Presumably, his master on the front line will also receive the information soon.
Cai Meng is really a fool. He really thinks that there are no eyes and ears for the lord in the counter-rebellion army.
"Cai Meng missed a big event." Kang Zhu muttered and repeated it again.
"Send two fast horses and tell Cai Meng that the remaining counter-rebel troops must not act rashly and wait for this general to pass."
"General, what if Cai Meng doesn't obey orders?"
Kang Zhu sneered, "Then you ask him, in the three states of Dongling, can what I, Kang Zhu, say still count?"
The personal guards took the order and galloped forward on horseback.
Kang Zhu sighed, turned around, and looked in the direction of Kezhou. This series of things are actually connected together, and Xishu is the connecting line.
Wuzhou rebelled, Feifu was killed, Cripple feigned an attack, Kezhou faced off, Mufeng tribe rebelled... the entire Dongling had turned into a mess.
For the first time, Kang Zhu found himself feeling helpless.
According to Wen's death advice, there was a counselor named Rong Lu who once advised the Lord to refuse King Liang's entry into the mausoleum. The Lord didn't listen. In the short time that King Liang entered the tomb, so many disasters had already occurred.
Kang Zhu didn't dare to think about what Dongling would be like in the future. Unless we can defeat Yuan Song in the fastest time and occupy the three states of Donglai, we can have a chance to boost the morale in Dongling.
"No matter who it is, if you want to take advantage of the three states of Dongling, please step on my body, Kang Zhu!"
"march!"
Kang Zhuhu roared, leading the men and horses secretly dispatched from Li Ducheng, and continued to run forward on the long official road.
