Of course, Lu Da and Wu Song did not really betray Sun Tu and the Qingzhou Army. The reason why they joined Erlong Mountain was to break into the stronghold and cooperate with Sun Tu to cooperate inside and outside to more easily take down the Erlong Mountain group of thieves.
Because judging from the situation in Erlong Mountain that was previously investigated, the terrain here is indeed dangerous and easy to defend but difficult to attack. With only more than a thousand Qingzhou troops, even if they are elite and good at fighting, they may not be able to easily capture this mountain. After having internal response, everything is completely different.
Sun Tu also had his own considerations in choosing the two of them to break into Erlong Mountain, because compared to Yang Zhilinchong and other generals, they were the easiest to hide their true identities. Needless to say, Wu Song only joined the Qingzhou Army after the First World War in Boden. Except for some internal people, no one in the previous Qingzhou government knew about it. As for Ruda, although he has followed Sun Tu for a long time and has made many contributions, it seems that many people are aware of his existence. But what everyone is really familiar with is Lu Da who returned to secular life, not Lu Zhishen dressed as a monk, so this time he shaved his head and put on a monk's robe again, and continued to join Erlong Mountain under the name of Lu Zhishen.
The two men joined Erlong Mountain smoothly and did not arouse the suspicion of Deng Long and others. It was just because they had just joined the mountain recently that they were not taken seriously, which made them very troubled. Although they had played against Han Benshan before, the people on the mountain were still somewhat alienated and distrustful of them, which made them eager to make contributions to the village and show their strength.
Today's battle between generals gave them an excellent opportunity. After seeing Zhao Sheng and Sun Lian lose one after another, they quickly asked Deng Long for a fight, and then hurried down the mountain. Especially after seeing that Sun Lian was severely injured by Yang Zhi and Zhao Sheng was in danger, the two became even more anxious and rushed down Erlong Mountain like a whirlwind, running straight towards Yang Zhi.
But the two of them were still a step too late. By the time they rushed down the mountain, Zhao Sheng had been knocked to the ground by Yang Zhi's knife, and he could only breathe out but not in. This result really shocked the people on the mountain and down the mountain. They never imagined that there was such a powerful person in the army, who could actually kill one person and wound one in just a few moves. It seemed that he didn't even have any traces of himself. Injured.
Just when all the thieves and bandits were feeling a little frightened, Wu Song had already shouted: "Don't be complacent, let me come and meet you for a while!" Then he jumped to Yang Zhi's side and slashed at his waist with a sharp knife. .
Yang Zhi also reacted very quickly. While shaking the reins and leading the horse to the side, he had already pressed the knife to block, just in time to block this sharp knife. Taking this opportunity, Wu Song whispered: "Brother Yang, please let me give way so that Sun Dujian can come out and fight with me."
Yang Zhi had already recognized the identities of the two of them, and guessed their purpose with just a slight frown, and immediately responded in a low voice, but the movements of his hands did not slow down, and the sudden exertion of force had already captured Wu Song. The knife was carried upwards. But he couldn't fight back immediately, because the opponent used two swords. One sword was raised, but the second sword was already slashing at him, so he could only return the sword to defend himself.
In an instant, the two of them had been fighting for more than ten times, and the ping-pong-pong-pong-pong-pong situation was very lively. Although Wu Song was fighting on foot and lacked a horse to support him, he actually kept pressing Yang with his dense and domineering double swords.
Zhidao quickly fell into an extremely passive situation. In the end, he was distracted by two knives and exposed his flaw. Wu Song slashed him on the shoulder with a knife. He could only grunt and take the opportunity to spin around. The horse head ran towards the gate of his village.
Seeing that Wu Song came up and reversed the situation, everyone in Erlong Mountain was overjoyed. There were endless cheers and noises. Even the village leaders such as Deng Long and Lu Yuan showed joy. They nodded and said: "Lu Zhishen and Wu Song are indeed They are rare talents, we must make good use of them from now on.β
But after seeing Yang Zhi being defeated by Wu Song and returning, Sun Tu showed a thoughtful look on his face. Seeing that Lin Chong was about to go out, he quickly held him down: "Brother Lin, wait a minute, let me take this fight!" After saying that, he didn't wait for the other party to respond, and without riding a horse, he quickly came out of the camp with a gun, pointed at Wu Song and said : "Wu Na, I have never heard of your name in the list of bandits in Erlong Mountain before. I think you just joined the bandit not long ago. If you know the secret and surrender to the government now, then I will not only keep you." With your life, I can still grant you an official position."
"You don't need to say such nonsense. I, Wu Song, am upright and upright. How can I be a lackey of the government! Who are you? Come and fight by name." Wu Song, however, looked disapproving and unruly. He held his two swords in front of him, looking at his posture. They will all launch an attack.
"You ungrateful guy, let me, Sun Tu, teach you what you're capable of!" Sun Tu sneered and swung his gun to kill him. As soon as the two of them looked at each other, they fought fiercely with swords and guns. The group looked at it until the people around were dazzled and frightened.
Indeed, the moves performed by these two people looked more dangerous than the previous fight. It seemed that every shot and knife could hurt each other, and every move was directed at the opponent's vital points. As long as someone reacted Failure to do so will result in life and death.
Deng Long and the others felt that their hearts were about to jump into their throats. They all hoped that Wu Song could seriously injure or kill the opponents in front of them. Because they already know Sun Tu's identity, he is the commander-in-chief of the Qingzhou Army. Once he is killed on the spot, the Qingzhou Army will be defeated. Let alone holding the stronghold, it is very possible to counterattack and enter Qingzhou City.
But they didn't know that most of the seemingly fierce battle was just an act. Every move the two make looks dangerous, but is actually within their control, allowing them to avert the most dangerous situation. At the same time, they also used the ping-pong sound of weapons clashing as cover to communicate.
"Captain, Brother Lu and I haven't been able to gain Deng Long's trust yet, but after today's battle, the situation should change."
"I can see that my plan has actually changed this time. What you have to do next is to cooperate with me. After a few days of attacking the mountain, I will try to make them believe that there is a problem in my rear and withdraw my troops. Lure Deng Long and his troops down the mountain to pursue them. Until then, you'd better stay on the mountain. That way, once Erlong Mountain is guarding the void, you can take control."
"It's not too difficult. As long as Brother Lu and I are injured, we can stay in the mountain as an excuse to recuperate." Although Wu Song didn't know his overall plan, he still agreed to the matter immediately. Afterwards, Sun Tu gave him a wink and sold him a piece of cake.
bloom.
Wu Song immediately took out his knife and struck Sun Tu on the chest, opening a large wound and causing blood to pour out.
After seeing this scene, everyone in the military camp became anxious. Immediately, Lin Chong, Zhou Xing and others all rushed out of the military camp to come to the rescue. Some of them even bent their bows and arrows to attack Wu Song. . Wu Song swung his swords and deflected a few arrows, letting one of them hit his chest. Then he pretended to be seriously injured and did not dare to pursue Sun Tu any more and retreated.
Luda also rushed up to meet him at this time. The two of them only made eye contact. Luda, who had just joined the battle group, also hit two people with his Zen staff without checking for a moment and was hit by two arrows. The two quickly retreated.
The officers and soldiers on the other side no longer cared about chasing them, and quickly protected Sun Tu, who was pale and seriously injured, and retreated to the military camp.
All this happened too fast. It was not until both sides of the battle retreated to their own formations that Deng Long and Lu Yuan came to their senses. Then both of them had a look of surprise on their faces. The army commander was actually defeated by Wu Song. Injured? Now the war situation is greatly beneficial to my family.
Of course, they also felt a little regretful in their hearts. If Wu Song could kill Sun Tu with one blow, then this battle would end with their victory. However, this result was enough to make them look at Wu Song with admiration, and they immediately came down the mountain to inquire about Wu Song's injury.
Wu Song showed some gratitude and unwillingness at this time: "If those guys hadn't suddenly come out, I might have been able to kill that guy named Sun Tu."
"You have done a good job. Do you know who Sun Tu is? He is the commander-in-chief of the army and the governor of Qingzhou. If he is killed on the spot by your formation, we can easily defeat the army."
"Is that so?" Wu Song murmured, and then looked a little annoyed: "I really missed a great opportunity. But the leader of the village, now that their coach has been seriously injured, the morale of the army must be unstable. Should we take the opportunity to attack?" In the past, you might be able to win in one battle.β
This is exactly what Deng Long thought, but before he could speak, Lu Yuan objected: "This is a bit too risky. If the officers and soldiers were not greatly affected, we would have suffered heavy losses if we rashly went down the mountain to attack. Or Itβs better to stick to it.β
Deng Long always obeyed Lu Yuan's words. Now that he said this, even if he had some thoughts in his heart, he finally acquiesced to this statement: "Then let's wait and see first. Besides, you two are also injured. The top priority now is It's more important to heal the wounds." These two people defended the village against strong enemies several times. Not only did they show their martial arts skills that were far superior to others, but they also made Deng Long and others feel their loyalty to the village. At this time, they already had the intention to reuse them.
After Wu Song and Lu Da felt this, although they were still a little disappointed, they were still very happy. This time there was finally some progress.
As for the officers and soldiers, after rescuing Sun Tu, there was a panic. After being in chaos for a while, the military camp settled down again. Judging from the situation, Sun Tu's injuries were still under control and should not be life-threatening. .
This battle, which is rare on the battlefield nowadays, ended with such a lose-lose result...
