Chapter 213 Burning Yangjiao Ridge
The horse herd and cattle herd have arrived at the grassland adjacent to the Wild Wolf Tribe and the Baicao Tribe, but the flock of tens of thousands is still walking slowly, and the women and sheep dogs are driving the flock together. The flock is very slow and has to eat while walking. It cannot be driven too ruthlessly. If it is driven too ruthlessly, there will be dead sheep and ewes miscarriages.
Hu Sanniang was also a little anxious and whispered to Wu Song: "How about I bring people to the palace and I will lead them away when a large number of enemies come."
Wu Song said: "Head-to-head fight is just the worst choice. Didn't you notice any favorable terrain when we came here?"
Hu Sanniang thought about it and realized a great enlightenment, saying, "There is a road passing through the ridge to the south. Is that right there?"
"Yes, that mountain ridge is called Yangjiao Ridge and Shanyin is covered with snow, but there is no snow in the mountain sun. The withered weeds are as deep as the thighs. It is four or five miles down from the ridge. As long as the enemy comes in, we will definitely be defeated by fire." Wu Song said.
Hu Sanniang realized that this was a good strategy.
The great leader of the Wild Wolf Tribe, the Wild Wolf Chief, is known as the Wild Wolf King. The main reason is that such a small tribe has no knowledge. There is a 3,500 people, less than two thousand strong men dare to be king. The Wild Wolf King who received the news was almost furious. The Wild Wolf King was in his thirties and had a fierce look on his face. It took only one day to assemble a thousand horse thieves. These men on horseback who have been on horseback for many years are maces made of maces made of wild beast bones. As for the ability to ride and shoot, it has not become popular yet, but it was only popular after the rise of the Mongols decades later. The current grasslands include Khitans, Turks, Huns, Xianbeis, and of course there are also Central Plains.
"Chasing, chop all those who dare to rob our cattle and sheep and feed them to the wolf." The Wild Wolf King waved his scimitar and directed his troops to go south to chase them.
In less than an hour, Niu Gao and Guanghui, who were behind the palace, met others. Niu Gao also discovered them. The two teams were always at a distance of two or three miles. When they ran to Shanyin of Yangjiaoling, people were exhausted, and horses were spraying white steam, and people were spraying white steam.
Wu Song was carrying a one-and-a-half-meter-long Mo Dao on his shoulders.
"Niu Gao, Guanghui, you two quickly lead the team to the reservation location, I'll irritate them."
Wu Song stopped the horse steadily. Seeing that a man from the Central Plains was so arrogant, one person dared to stand in front of thousands of people. With a wave of the scimitar in his hand, the command team also stopped.
The language barrier does not hinder communication. Wu Song stretched out his hand to hook it up. This was very obvious. He asked someone to fight alone.
The Wild Wolf King has four big wolf men under his command. The fat wolf was killed by Hu Sanniang yesterday. Today, there are three wolf men who are next to the Wild Wolf King. They are all rare masters and ruthless characters who usually kill people.
"I'll kill him." The green-faced wolf shook the scimitar in his hand and rode his horse over. Seeing this, Wu Song shouted: "Go"
The sharp Modao rushed out with all his strength and slashed over. The green-faced wolf only felt the scimitar in the Tao with a crisp sound. The knife broke and there was no time to react. The whole upper body flew out. The horse carrying half of the person ran for a long time before stopping.
It was so beautiful that it defeated the enemy with one move without any extra move. Another wolf, Scar Wolf, came out from the horse. The scar wolf had a long scar on his face, and a mace of a deer skull rushed towards Wu Song fiercely. Wu Song hung a knife to get the crossbow, and the big black eagle looked at this guy with an arrow, and the arrow went like the wind. Scar Wolf was really good at it. He actually grabbed the feather arrow with his left hand. If it was shot from an ordinary hunting bow, it would have no effect. However, this was shot by the big black eagle crossbow, which broke the heavy armor within a hundred meters, and his fingers had no strength to catch it.
With a puff, the feather arrow nailed Scar Wolf's chest. Scar Wolf slowly lay on the horse's back, not knowing whether he was alive or not.
Wu Song stopped his horse, shook his hand contemptuously, then turned and left with his big finger facing down. This is too obvious, you can't do it.
The Wild Wolf King has been a horse thief for so many years and naturally knows that he should be cautious when encountering dangerous situations, but more than a thousand people were despised by one person. The Wild Wolf King, who was already furious, could not bear it at all. He waved his scimitar: "Go ahead, catch the alive, I want to hang him."
Wu Song rode his horse and ran up the mountain. There was snow on the slopes up the mountain. Wu Song walked on the mountain paths he had processed, but the team of people behind him were not so lucky. He often fell down and fell.
By the time the Wild Wolf King led the large army to the top of the mountain, Wu Song had already run down the mountain for several miles. The horse thieves howled and rushed down. Then there was a sudden explosion in the sky, followed by the withered wild grasses around him and instantly burning a raging fire. There were dozens of fire points, and it was obvious that artificial setting fire was caused.
The Wild Wolf King was careless. It was not that he had thought that there was snow on the ground and it was difficult to catch fire. He didn't notice that it was a slope. There was less snow, and the sunlight angle was strong, so the snow melted, which caused the current situation.
"Cover your mouth and nose, retreat behind the mountain." The Wild Wolf King pulled off a piece of clothes, pulled urine, then covered his mouth and nose, and rode his horse to retreat to the mountain. The horse thieves followed suit and followed suit.
Not far away, Lu Da and others were watching there. Ma Lin said: "Why do these horse thieves use urine to cover their noses? They have a heavy taste."
Lu Da smiled and said, "Brother Ma Lin has never been to the battlefield. It is rare to burn people to death on the battlefield, but the smoke is very powerful and can kill people alive. This method is very correct. You all remember it. This will do the same when you encounter fire in the future."
Ou Peng said: "It seems difficult to keep them all."
Wildfires spread, and some horse thieves were covered in fire and fell into the fire, but most horse thieves just burned their clothes, burned their tails, lost control of the war horses, and ran around.
"Shoot the arrows and fire, don't give the enemy a chance to breathe, and capture the chief of the Wild Wolf Tribe alive and reward a sheep." Wu Song shouted.
Niu Gao said: "This chief is from our Pioneer Camp."
Luda said: "This is from our second camp. The Sha family has seen him long ago."
Luo Ping said: "He is mine, I want to beat him to death with a slap."
It was a hunting ground. Wu Song and others had a team of about 400 people waiting around to hunt horse thieves who had escaped from the thick smoke with crossbow arrows and muskets. They often had just escaped from the fire and ascended to heaven, and suddenly had a pain in their chest and were shot.
The wildfires of dead grass came and went quickly. At this time, the Wild Wolf King had more than a hundred personal soldiers gathered around him, preparing to escape from the mountain, but it was not that easy. Although the time was tight and there was no time to build a weapon like resisting horses and trapping, there were still several tripping ropes. The tripping ropes of varying heights blocked the way, and the Wild Wolf Chief led his troops to assault the east.
Lu Da led the Second Battalion to kill, and there was no general who had a magic wand in his hand. All the enemy soldiers who were blocking the road were knocked away one after another. Ou Peng and Ma Lin next to him were also mighty and brave, and no one could take charge of the trio.
