The pre-war meeting lasted for three or four hours, and everyone finally reached a consensus and formulated a battle plan that everyone felt was reasonable. They waited until Zeng Chi brought people to Fuhu Mountain where the Flying Eagle Club was located.
As if to confirm the news brought by the spies, on the third day after receiving the news, the personnel responsible for inquiring about the enemy's situation at the front sent back the news that Heishan County Lieutenant Zengchi led 1,150 officers and soldiers to officially set off, and it was estimated that they would arrive after noon. You can reach the foot of Fuhu Mountain.
Zhu Tong was sitting behind a cluster of bushes, holding a long pipe in his mouth and smoking loudly. This time he was ordered to ambush here in order to ambush Zeng Chi.
Zhu Tong was full of confidence in this battle. The master had made careful arrangements before coming. His mission was to use the terrain advantages here to give the enemy a head-on blow. After effectively killing the enemy, they then disappeared without a trace by virtue of their familiarity with the terrain, leaving Zeng Chi's people unable to find the target for their anger.
Zhu Tong knew that he was not the only one responsible for setting up ambushes along the way. It is estimated that by the time the people Zeng Chi led arrived at Fuhu Mountain, there would not be many people left!
The sound of horse hooves was heard in the distance, followed by the sound of a large group of people talking. Zhu Dian immediately became energetic and stared in the direction of the people.
The group of people who came were all dressed as officers and soldiers. Zhu Tong knew that the group of people who came must be Zeng Chi and his men. He immediately ordered his bandits to concentrate on inflicting heavy damage on the enemy as much as possible.
The bandits opened their eyes wide and saw the enemy coming into sight. After walking forty or fifty steps further, they entered the ambush circle of themselves and others. Everyone was extremely happy.
However, what made everyone extremely anxious was that these officers and soldiers suddenly stopped, actually rested on the spot, and did not move forward for a long time.
After half an hour, the bandits were getting impatient, and the officers and soldiers at the foot of the mountain showed signs of moving forward. Zhu Dian immediately waved his hand and told his men to prepare for the attack.
But at this moment, a scream came from the group of bandits, and then, a bandit fell to the ground with a long arrow stuck in his back.
The sudden change stunned Zhu Tong, and then there was another scream, and another bandit fell to the ground. At this time, Zhu Quan realized that the attacking enemy came from the rear.
"Hurry up and find a place to hide, there are enemies behind you!" Seeing that the situation was not right, Zhu Dian immediately smoked the pipe in his mouth and shouted loudly.
Hearing Zhu Tong's cry, the bandits hiding in the bushes immediately reacted and hurriedly found a place to hide their bodies. At this time, Zhu Tong discovered a more fatal problem. The officers and soldiers below the ramp had obviously discovered where he and others were hiding, and were quickly approaching in this direction.
Because he just wanted to make a sneak attack and leave, Zhu Tong did not bring many people with him this time. If the officers and soldiers fought head-on, they would definitely not be the opponents of the opponent.
"Retreat quickly, we can't be surrounded by them." Zhu Dian was an old man, and he immediately made the right choice.
After hearing Zhu Tong's order, the bandits came out of their hiding places one after another, and retreated deep into the mountain with the help of trees and rocks. Although the enemies hiding behind them shot arrows from time to time, it was obvious that there were not many enemies hiding behind them. As everyone was prepared, the casualties caused were not particularly serious.
"People behind, hurry up!" Zhu Tong used the cigarette pole in his hand to knock away an incoming bow and arrow, and shouted anxiously towards the rear, because he found that several people behind him had been bitten by the chasing officers and soldiers.
It would be unwise to turn back for rescue at this time. Zhu Dian had to call on the people in front to move quickly. Fortunately, everyone was very familiar with the terrain and had already found the retreat route when they came. After losing seven or eight people, Zhu Dian finally led Most of the bandits successfully evacuated.
Not long after Zhu Tong and his men returned to Feiyinghui Village with their heads down, Gui Sanniang, Youtong and Ge Shun also came back with their people. Each team looked embarrassed. It turned out that they all encountered the same experience as Zhu Tong.
"Do these officers and soldiers have eyes from the sky? No matter where we are hiding, they can know." Seeing Ye Ying, Youtong said aggrievedly.
The plan to set up an ambush failed. Zeng Chi quickly appeared at the foot of Fuhu Mountain with his officers and soldiers, and it seemed that he was about to launch an attack. At this time, Ye Ying received another bad news. Ge Niuer, who went to Zhuifeng Ridge for help, sent back the message that even Zhuifeng Ridge had been surrounded by officers and soldiers.
After some inquiring, Ge Niuer brought back a familiar name to Ye Ying, Zhaowu Colonel Zeng Yi. Although Zeng Yi did not personally lead the troops this time, he sent a very powerful battalion to shake the mountain camp.
Although there are only six to seven hundred people in the Shanshan camp, they are only about 30% of the number of bandits in Zhuifeng Ridge. But as the strongest army in Daning. Their combat capabilities were incredible, and coupled with their powerful equipment support, they surrounded Zhuifeng Ridge arrogantly.
Due to the lack of news, it was impossible for Zhuifeng Ridge, which was surrounded by people, to know the news about the Flying Eagle Society. In fact, even if he knew that Fan Gui could not save himself, he would not be able to send people to help Ye Ying.
It seems that now everything can only be relied on by oneself. In order to avoid damaging everyone's morale, Ye Ying blocked the news and made everyone think that Zhuifeng Ridge was already making preparations. As long as he and others can persist for a period of time, they can Defeat the officers and soldiers at the foot of the mountain.
Taking Ye Gong's Art of War given to him by Master Ninth, Ye Ying found helplessly that all the cases recorded above were not suitable for the current situation.
All the leaders of the cottage, including Jiang Jin, the usually very capable military advisor, have not thought of a reasonable way to break the situation. At present, what everyone can do is to hold on to the stronghold and wait for the arrival of reinforcements.
The previous campaigns against bandits went very smoothly, which greatly increased Zeng Chi's confidence. So after arriving at Fuhu Mountain where the Flying Eagle Club was located, he didn't even set up a camp and immediately launched an attack on the stronghold.
This time Zeng Chi attacked Feiyinghui's village, and he was obviously well prepared. At the beginning of the battle, the catapults launched a round of wild bombings, causing the bandits hiding on the hillside to suffer a great deal. Many people were hit and injured. Headaches and bloodshed, and some even lost their lives.
Seeing this situation, they had no choice but to ask everyone to spread out and use trees and rocks for cover as much as possible. The bandits who had suffered losses gradually became smarter and learned to avoid the flying rocks.
Fortunately, Fuhu Mountain is too big and there are many places to hide. In addition to causing relatively heavy casualties to the bandits at the beginning, the attacks by the officers and soldiers gradually lost their effectiveness.
Seeing that the catapults could no longer effectively kill the enemy, the officers and soldiers immediately changed their offensive strategy and began to approach directly towards the hillside. The officers and soldiers holding shields were at the front, followed by long weapons such as spears and spears, and at the back were soldiers holding bows and arrows. Attack the emerging bandits.
Seeing that the officers and soldiers were in neat formation and that their weapons and equipment were much better, the bandits felt extremely nervous. Some of their companions were injured or killed in the attacks with stones and bows and arrows. Some bandits became afraid, and some even began to quietly move back.
Seeing this scene, Ye Ying sighed helplessly. Most of these peasant bandits had never experienced a real life-and-death battle, and their combat capabilities were really poor.
Ye Ying knew that if this situation was allowed to continue, the morale of the bandits would continue to be low. If there was a large-scale escape, the entire team would be defeated without a fight.
The officers and soldiers lined up in a neat square formation and moved forward step by step. The arrows shot sporadically by the bandits were protected by the wooden shields in the front row and could not cause harm to them at all.
Seeing his soldiers approaching the mountain step by step, Zeng Chi showed a satisfied smile on his face. He had relied on this tactic to make the opponent unable to do anything in previous operations to suppress bandits, leading to the final defeat.
"If you dare to offend our Eagle Club, you will never come back." A shout suddenly came from the hillside, and a handsome young man holding a silver gun quickly rushed towards the officers and soldiers like a god coming to the world. Come over.
Behind that young man, there were three other people, a young man as tall as a hill, a fat man with fair skin, and a strong man with a stern face.
These four people were obviously masters. All the long arrows shot by the archers were deflected by them. Before these officers and soldiers could react, they had already arrived in front of the crowd, and their swords struck at the shields in the hands of the officers and soldiers.
The main function of the shield is to resist the attack of the attackers. It was very disadvantageous when faced with the long weapons in the hands of these four people. Soon, several officers and soldiers lost their shields and died.
Seeing this situation, Zeng Chi, who was at the rear of the team, immediately issued an order for the shield bearers to get out of the way. The sword and spear soldiers hidden behind the shield bearers were revealed and attacked the four people together.
However, the skills of these four people were too high, and they killed several officers and soldiers in a short time. More importantly, they disrupted the neat formation of the officers and soldiers.
It seemed that these people should be the leaders of this village. They dared to rush out immediately, which was completely beyond Zeng Chi's imagination. There are so many masters in this small village, which Zeng Chi never expected before coming here.
However, this situation did not make Zeng Chi panic. On the contrary, he was a little happy, because as long as these four people were successfully killed, the other bandits in the village would have collapsed without a fight.
"Don't panic, surround them!" Seeing that his officers and soldiers were a little panicked, Zeng Chi immediately shouted loudly. At the same time, Zeng Chi rushed towards the battlefield in person, followed by several warrior-level warriors beside Zeng Chi. The master also rushed over after him.
As long as these people are entangled, no matter how high their martial arts are, they will never come back. Zeng Chi thought in his mind and walked faster.
However, the four people on the opposite side seemed to understand Zeng Chi's thoughts. After successfully disrupting the formation of the officers and soldiers, they did not choose to stay where they were. Instead, they quickly left the battlefield and ran towards the hillside.
"Stop them, stop them..." The man who killed him wanted to run away. Zeng Chi became anxious and shouted at the top of his lungs, while also rushing forward desperately.
However, these ordinary officers and soldiers were in chaos at this time and could not trap these four people at all. By the time Zeng Chi arrived, these four people had already taken care of all the officers and soldiers. Evacuating on the mountain road.
This scene made Zeng Chi furious. He led a group of officers and soldiers and chased the four people in the direction of evacuation. After the four people got rid of the officers and soldiers, they evacuated not very fast, and they were not far away from Zeng Chi and others.
Seeing this scene, Zeng Chi felt happy. As long as he succeeded in catching up with these guys, even if they were good at it, they would not be able to escape successfully today.
