Chapter 672: Ambush

"Ambushes!" Fu Cheng screamed shrillly, and his whole body fell to the ground, curling his whole body into a ball and rolling under the walls of a house on one side. Even though he reacted so quickly, he was still hit by several crossbow arrows. The crossbow arrows broke through the armor, and bursts of pain came, making his eyes a little black. The screams in his ears continued like the howling sound of crossbow arrows.

But he didn't have time to think about anything else, because as soon as he looked up, he saw the black window and door of the house opposite, the heads scattered on the roof, and the crossbow arrows shining under the fire.

He used all his strength to continue rolling to one side. As soon as his body left the place just now, a crossbow arrow snatched the ground and nailed it to the wall.

Fu Cheng was exhausted and could only rush on the ground to avoid the soul-chasing crossbow arrows. He only took a breath until he rolled all the way to the back of a carriage. He leaned on one side of the wheel, and gasped heavily. On his thighs, there was a crossbow arrow inserted on each side of the shoulder armor, which was left by the first round of attacks. Fortunately, his armor was good enough. Although the arrow broke through the armor, it was not deep.

He reached out and grabbed the arrow's tail, gritted his teeth, pulled out the crossbow arrow on his thigh with a loud bang, and he screamed in pain. After trembling for a moment, he pulled out the crossbow arrow on his shoulder armor with his backhand.

Holding the knife, he poked out half of his body from the carriage and looked at the battlefield ahead.

The two men in front and behind, except for a very small number of people, were exposed to the other party's attack.

He was a long-time general, and just glanced at him and felt a little disappointed.

The place here is too narrow.

The traps arranged by the enemy in advance are too sinister. In addition to using these houses, some ambush points were set up in other places that could not be taken into account, so that the opponents who fell into the ambush had no reliable place to hide.

Obviously, the other party had known that they were coming, so he set up this trap.

This made him puzzled. The other party was not a god, how did he know their existence, how did he know that they were not far from here, and how did he think they were coming today.

If you want to break the situation in front of you, you must at least occupy one of the houses.

Holding the pain, he took a deep breath, reached out to pull off a wooden board on the carriage, then stood up suddenly, and shouted: "Follow me!"

Pushing the board in front of him, he rushed towards the house closest to him.

The soldiers who had no masters near him saw the Lord's general bravely moving forward, and also followed him towards the house.

On the roof, Ren Xiaonian sighed with regret and threw the crossbow in his hand to a young and strong man on one side. On his side, there were several young and strong man on his side. Just now, Ren Xiaonian was aiming at Fu Cheng and the young and strong man next to him was responsible for handing the crossbow strings to him.

Unfortunately, this guy who was obviously the leader was so alert that he could not have imagined.

"Shoot well, shoot those bitches." He threw the crossbow in his hand to the young and strong, Ren Xiaonian picked up his horizontal knife and slipped down a pole.

Most of the people who entered the ambush circle with crossbows were young and strong, while Ren Xiaonian deliberately left the most elite team as a mobile unit.

A big hole was opened on the roof. Ren Xiaonian, who was slipping down, looked at dozens of people standing in the house holding shields and knives.

"Calendar with me!" He raised his sword and said with a smile.

Dozens of soldiers rushed out with Ren Xiaonian.

The shouts of killing in Niujia Village shook the sky, and Liu Santong's heart suddenly became tense in the distance. This was not the result of a normal sneak attack. Fu Cheng obviously encountered a powerful attack. Although he was a little nervous, he was not worried. After all, Fu Cheng had an absolute advantage in terms of military strength.

But then, Liu Santong's face suddenly changed.

Because an arrow shot into the sky, the arrow with a shrill whistle sounded in the air. It was the arrow used by the Pinglu Army to incur an emergency, and it was only used in the critical situation. Fu Cheng has used this arrow now, and it is obvious that the enemy is not the enemy in Niujia Village, but his subordinates.

"Strike!" Liu Santong rushed forward and rushed forward. Two hundred cavalry behind him roared and followed closely.

The mud on the ground was very deep, and it was extremely difficult for the war horses to run forward, but at this moment, Liu Santong didn't care about these things, and plucked the horse's thighs and ran forward.

The war horse fell to the ground after stumbled on the air. Liu Santong quickly turned over and dismounted. A cavalry next to him stretched out his hand, grabbed Liu Santong's hand, and pulled him onto his war horse.

From time to time, some war horses broke their horse's hooves and fell down. Some cavalry could turn off their horses and once again got on their fellow comrades' war horses, while others were unlucky. The fallen horses pressed their legs and feet and could no longer move.

When two hundred horses rushed outside Niujia Village, forty or fifty horses had already lost, but they finally rushed up.

Li De's rangers were still advancing slowly, with more and more scouts scattering, searching for possible traces everywhere. As time went by, Li De became more and more anxious.

A sudden sound of horse hooves came from afar, and a scout rushed back.

"General, General, found Niujia Village, Niujia Village!"

Li De let out a long sigh, without saying a word, and shouted sternly: "Lead the way forward."

Thousands of Rangers no longer avoided anything, so they reignited the torch and rushed towards Niujia Village.

Ren Xiaonian was in crisis.

The people Liu Santong was able to bring out from Linzi can be regarded as brave men. Although he occupied the geographical advantage and successfully lured the enemy into his trap. At the beginning of the war, he gave the enemy great damage, but compared with his soldiers, there were still too many enemies.

The bravery shown by the enemy who was trapped in the encirclement was greatly out of Ren Xiaonian's accident. With heavy casualties, these Pinglu soldiers immediately used the bodies of their dead comrades. They approached several houses with the bodies, and then rushed into the house and started close to the Tang army in the house to kill each other.

Just as Fu Ping's idea of ​​still wanting to occupy a house at the first time even though he was injured, as long as he broke the side of the encirclement, there would be huge flaws in the encirclement. At least, he would no longer kill them without dead corners.

Pinglu Army needs to take a breath.

Ren Xiaonian blocked Fu Cheng's journey, but other Pinglu soldiers who risked their lives to attack still successfully captured a house. Once they entered the close-range battle, the young and strong shortcomings were immediately magnified unlimitedly. Even if the soldiers of the Sixth Battalion fought desperately, they could not stop the Pinglu soldiers from conquering the outermost house.

A house was occupied, and many Pinglu soldiers who were unable to lift their heads because of the crossbow arrows around them immediately breathed a sigh of relief. After a moment of pause, they began to attack another house from the dead corner where the crossbow arrows could not be shot.

But until this time, the Tang army was still in the upper hand. Although the advantage was getting smaller, it was enough for them to continue to kill the opponent effectively.

Until Ren Xiaonian heard the sound of horse hooves.

Ren Xiaonian did not kill Fu Cheng after all.

Fu Zhan, who fought bloody battles, was stabbed by Ren Xiaonian several times, but he still dragged Ren Xiaonian down and did not allow Ren Xiaonian to launch an effective counterattack to reoccupate the lost house.

When Liu Santong's hoarse shouts of killing came from his ears, Fu Cheng's spirit was greatly boosted, and he miraculously blocked Ren Xiaonian's three consecutive slashes.

Three swords forced Fu Cheng back, and Ren Xiaonian dragged the sword and left.

"Retreat, hold on to the granary."

The remaining soldiers followed Ren Xiaonian back without hesitation, and while they left, they also ignited the house they had once occupied.

These are all arranged in advance. If they really don’t work, these houses cannot be made a stronghold for the enemy.

Except for the house that was used as a granary, the other houses were burning.

The last stronghold is the temporary granary.

Ren Xiaonian was gasping for breath, and the bloody Fu Cheng was also gasping for breath with a knife. The blood in his body fell to the ground, dyeing the yellow mud red.

Liu Santong stopped in front of Fu Cheng.

"It's the Sixth Battalion, Ren Xiaonian." Fu Cheng wiped the blood from his face and looked at Liu Santong with lingering fear.

On the Yellow River defense line, the Sixth Battalion, as the pioneer battalion, broke through their attacking positions in one fell swoop. Unexpectedly, the enemy was narrow and they actually met again here.

"Great!" Liu Santong looked at the ground that filled his subordinates under the flames, and his muscles twitched on his face. "I finally had the chance to wipe them out here, avenge the brothers who died on the Yellow River defense line, and avenge the brothers Houxiao."

"General Liu, it's not easy to fight." Fu Cheng swallowed a mouthful of saliva with blood and said, "I just saw their last position and was arranged very solidly. If we want to break through, we will die a lot of people."

"What else is there to fight?" Liu Santong laughed and said, "Don't he like to set fire? I also let him taste the taste of being burned by fire, and told his brothers to prepare rockets, pull down the wooden boards and beams of the burning houses and throw them into their positions. They either rushed out to fight to the death, or they would stand there and be burned to death by us."

"Then, there will be no food." Fu Cheng was a little reluctant.

"I'm just a care about the food. If I knew that so many people would die for this little food, I would never have fought this battle. I had miscalculated it. If I had known this, I would not have suffered such great losses while they were marching!" Liu Santong said regretfully.

In the temporary granary, Ren Xiaonian looked at Liu Santong's actions on the other side and couldn't help but sigh. The enemy ignored him and just wanted to kill them, so they would have no other way to go.
