Chapter Six The Tatars Escape

Yu Zhu, Ouyang Xuan and Huang Dagen lay down in the grass, staring intently at the Mongolian sentries walking back and forth near the fire more than ten meters away. Huang Dagen was a short, middle-aged veteran, and Yu Zhu picked

He came together to attack and kill the Mongolian sentries,

Not only because of his strong and capable body, but also because of his flexibility and agility. The rangers are all elite soldiers of the Mongolian army. They are not only highly skilled in martial arts but also extremely vigilant. The more people attacking, the greater the movement, so Yu Zhu can only

Take two people to attack the sentry.

The Mongolian Rangers chose to camp by the Ganwuli River, obviously after careful consideration. The Ganwuli River also originates from the Longmen Mountain in the northwest of Chongqing Prefecture like the Weijiang River near Yongkang City, but its origins are in different ravines.

The rivers are no more than ten miles apart, flowing eastward in parallel to the Western Sichuan Plain, and joining the Wenjing River in Yongqu Township. The terrain around the Mongolian army camp is flat. It is 5 miles away from Yongkang Village in the north and about 3 miles away from Longmen Mountain in the west.

On the road, there are several tents surrounding a bonfire, set up next to the official road from Yongkang City to Hengyuan Town in the south, and the horse tying place is on the bank of the Ganwuli River more than ten meters away. This section of the river is wide and the water is slow.

, lush aquatic plants on both sides of the strait

, it is convenient for horses to eat grass and drink water, and more importantly, this location is easy to defend. If the defenders of Yongkang Walled City attack from the north, they must first wade through the river that is tens of meters wide. If the Mongolian army cannot fight, they can also pass through the official

Dao fled.

According to the plan, after the three men sneaked over, Yu Zhu and Huang Dagen killed the sentries, while Ouyang Xuan used the engineer shovel to extinguish the fire to prevent the Tatar soldiers from shooting arrows by the light of the fire. After the fire was extinguished, Li Shuang led an ambush a hundred meters away.

The people came straight to fight. In order to prevent the Tatar soldiers from escaping, Ouyang Xuan and Yu Zhu also detoured to a few hundred meters in front of the camp, on the official road leading to Hengyuan Town.

On the mountain, the climbing rope was made into a horse tripping rope, and dozens of horse traps were dug with engineering shovels. A fire chief named Cao Ergou led 10 people to lurk here. During the discussion just now, Ouyang

Seeing that Li Shuang was injured by an arrow, Xuan suggested that he and the other two injured soldiers stay where they were and wait. When Li Shuang was willing to stay, Ouyang Xuan gave him his headlamp.

When the Tatar sentry walked up to him and turned his back to the three of them, Yu Zhu suddenly jumped out of the grass and threw him to the ground. He strangled the Tatar sentry's neck with one hand from behind and covered his mouth and nose with the other.

Huang Dagen, who followed closely behind, stabbed his waist with a knife. Unexpectedly, the tip of the knife missed him.

Turning to one side, it turned out that the Tatar soldier was wearing half body armor of cowhide. Huang Dagen eagerly searched for its vital points but could not find it. For a while, the three of them struggled with each other. At this time, Ouyang Xuan was running towards the fire, and he glanced out of the corner of his eye.

I saw a tall black figure rushing out from where the horse was tied.

While blowing the whistle, he raised his knife and rushed towards Huang Dagen. He was about to hit Huang Dagen on the back. In this flash of lightning, Ouyang Xuan no longer cared about putting out the fire. He turned around and threw the engineer at the Mongolian secret sentry.

Shovel. To say that this throw is simply a matter of luck.

, the sharp engineer shovel hit the neck under the cowhide helmet, and the whistle stopped. The Mongolian whistle immediately fell to the ground, and he saw that he was dead. At this moment, Huang Dagen had already stabbed several times at the weak spot in the hard armor of his ribs, and then he let go

The Mongolian sentry struggling desperately on the ground breathed his last.

Ouyang Xuan turned around and picked up the engineer's shovel and rushed towards the fire. Yu Zhu and Huang Dagen followed closely and rushed towards the tent. By this time, the Mongolian army had been alarmed by the whistle, and several people had rushed out of the tent with weapons in hand. Ouyang Xuan

Just as he was grabbing a shovel for fire, a Tatar soldier slashed at his side with a knife. In a hurry, he stretched out his engineering shovel to block the fire. The hot coals made the Tatar soldier scream and retreat hurriedly. The firewood was thrown up.

potential

Before it disappeared, it ignited the tent next to it, emitting a strong firelight and the smell of burnt wool. At this time, Yu Zhu and Huang Dagen saw the large number of Tatar soldiers, so they turned back to where they were hiding to get their spears.

In addition to the daggers, each of them also brought a spear. Seeing the Tatar soldiers surrounding him, Ouyang Xuan was so excited that his heart moved. He swung his shovel and threw the burning branches and charcoal from the fire towards the Tatar soldiers and the tent.

The flying dust and thick smoke caused the Tatar soldiers to stop their offensive, but it only delayed the attack for a short time. They ignored the burning tents and continued to surround them. At this time, there were rounds of shouts of killing behind them. It turned out that Li Shuang and others

I just heard the whistle

Knowing that his feelings had changed, he rushed over before the fire was extinguished. Although Ouyang Xuan put out the fire, he inadvertently caused the tent to burn. An unexpected combination of circumstances solved the problem of Song Bing's inability to see at night, allowing Li Shuang and others to wait.

People move more quickly.

Under the siege of the Tatar soldiers, although Ouyang Xuan swung the engineering shovel in his hand, the danger suddenly appeared. At the critical moment, Yu Zhu and Huang Dagen rushed over with spears. The Tatar soldiers used their waist knives to deal with the long-term leader.

Spear, although the situation has the upper hand, he is eager to

But they couldn't get it in time. It turned out that the Tatar soldiers could sleep without taking off their armor and clothes in order to prevent sneak attacks, but the strong bow could not be tightened at all times. The bow string must be unstrung when not in use to prevent the strong bow from fatigue due to tension.

Damaged. This ranger team was damaged by Song Bing wherever it went.

They all fled after hearing the news, so even though they were proud, the captain of the ten men estimated that even if there was a night attack, it would definitely come from the direction of Yongkang City. In his opinion, the food collection team was like a lost dog. After escaping to the mountains, how could they dare to

A night attack? Of course, in order to prepare for a night attack by the Song soldiers, this

The 10-man team of Tatar soldiers still arranged two sentries, one light and one dark. However, he did not expect that the food collection team really dared to attack at night, and the dark sentry was killed as soon as the alarm was sounded. Due to the haste of the incident and the darkness of the night

Unfortunately, the Tatar soldiers had no time to string their strong bows.

The shouts were getting closer and closer. Ouyang Xuan and the others formed a small defensive formation back to back and fought and retreated. When they retreated to the place where the three of them were hiding, Li Shuang had already arrived with his men. Seeing this, the tenth commander of the Tatar soldiers let out a long cry.

Sent, and with the remaining seven Tatar soldiers, they turned around and ran to the place where the horses were tied, untied the horses' ropes, quickly got on their horses, and fled along the official road towards Hengyuan Town.

"Hurry up!" Li Shuang issued an order hurriedly. Due to his injury from the arrow, his movements were slow and he was hanging behind the team. Ouyang Xuanhe didn't care to breathe, so he followed Yu Zhu and Huang Dagen and rushed up the official road. They had just chased them out.

Tens of meters away, they heard loud shouts of killing and the neighing of horses from the front. Everyone rushed to the ambush on the official road and found that the Tatar soldiers had fled away, and only four horses were lying on the ground wailing. Cao Ergou

Seeing the arrival of Yu Zhu and others, he said loudly: "Master Yu, the Tatar horse riding skills are very good. After the leading Tatar horse was tripped, he jumped on another empty horse before landing, and the horse pit collapsed.

Got it

A Tatar soldier rolled over after landing, and jumped onto the empty horse next to him. Seeing danger ahead, the Tatar soldiers behind him drove their horses around the official road. We were helpless, so we only stabbed two of them with spears.
