"Then... here comes... how did they do it?"
In addition to Hu Rong, many people up and down Dulonggang also saw this strange scene. For a moment, everyone suspected that they were dazzled, otherwise how could such an unrealistic situation appear before their eyes?
The area around Dulonggang is surrounded by dozens of connected mountains, large and small. Even the official road opened by the imperial court is set along the rugged and winding mountain road, so it is the most difficult to walk. Not to mention that it’s such a severe winter when the road is blocked by the white snow. Even in other seasons, it’s not easy to travel quickly between the mountains.
But what appeared in front of them today was a strange sight that completely overturned their understanding. The large black dots looked so eye-catching in the vast white snow. Even though their speed was not as fast as a galloping horse, it was not much slower. But there is no lag between the ups and downs. Sometimes when rushing to a mountain top, they will jump high, cross a distance of several feet with a beautiful jump, and then fall back to the snow safely. Above the ground…
This isn't running, it's clearly speeding! But how did these people do it? Is it a god descending to earth
At this time, people up and down the hill had ignored the purpose of this group of people, and were instead concerned about how the other party did this. It wasn't until the dozens of people who were rushing to the front suddenly stopped two or three miles away from the Liangshan camp that Song Jiang, who was a little stunned, suddenly changed his color and woke up: "Hurry up and set up a formation to stop them! This is where the officers and soldiers are coming. Zhujiazhuang is being rescued! It’s the Qingzhou Army..."
Because after standing still, the visitor had already unfurled a huge flag. Under the howling north wind, the flag moved wildly, completely exposing the two large Qingzhou characters embroidered in it to everyone's eyes. before.
While shouting these words, his heart was still filled with unbelievable emotions. Even now, they could not accept such a fact. Qingzhou is hundreds of miles away, and with today's weather conditions, they wouldn't be able to get here in less than half a month. But now, this Qingzhou army suddenly descended from heaven as if it had received help from heaven. What on earth is going on
In fact, at this time, many people have clearly seen the attire of the Qingzhou Army that is constantly gathering. Their clothes look a bit weird, and they don't know what kind of fabric they are made of. Anyway, they are smooth, and their faces are covered Under the thick scarf, almost only a pair of eyes were exposed. What's even weirder is their hands and feet. All of them are holding two long wooden poles with both hands, which are holding up the snow on the ground. But under their feet are not boots or the like, but The same extremely long wooden board, with its head and tail raised high, and its middle dented... Anyway, it was a strange thing that none of the one or two thousand people present had ever seen...
In fact, they had vaguely guessed that the Qingzhou Army's ability to descend here in such a short period of time with its magic soldiers should be due to this strange costume, but no one could understand where it came from.
Sun Tu, who was gathering his troops and preparing to launch a charge, naturally couldn't tell those guys that this was a simple ski tool he had made based on the style of the skis he took out from the warehouse.
That day, after deciding to rescue Zhujiazhuang, a serious problem was placed in front of everyone. Such weather conditions
With the roads blocked by heavy snow, how could the Qingzhou Army reach Dulonggang in Jeju, hundreds of miles away, in time? Sun Tu quickly gave his answer.
A few years ago, he found dozens of pairs of skis in the warehouse, which he just needed. Since the quantity was not enough, they gathered all the carpenters in Qingzhou to rush to imitate, and at the same time selected agile men from the army to practice skiing skills in the snow.
This ski does not have much technical content, even if it is made of wood, the effect is not much different. As for skiing technology, it is not a problem for those elite soldiers who already have a foundation in kung fu, so it only took two days to complete everything. Everything was arranged, and the three hundred elite Qingzhou troops, led by Sun Tu and other generals, skied over day and night.
Because they did not take the official road, the distance was greatly shortened. In addition, the skiing speed was very fast, and the down jackets in the warehouse provided by Sun Tu were warmer and lighter than at this time. They actually only used a mere three cents. Tian, had already crossed a distance of hundreds of miles, miraculously appeared in front of Dulonggang, and fought to the side and rear of Liangshan Camp.
Just when Song Jiang eagerly ordered the soldiers and horses left behind to set up defenses, the Qingzhou Army had already assembled and took out the weapons they had been carrying on their backs and the repeated crossbows they had begun to build in large quantities earlier. Following Sun Tu's order, , three hundred Qingzhou soldiers sprinted and galloped again amidst the shouts, and in the blink of an eye they had reached the front of the Liangshan camp.
This speed is not even inferior to an ordinary cavalry charge. At this time, the Liangshan soldiers and horses had not even had time to set up their positions. They were hit by a hail of arrows that knocked them upside down and screamed. The defense line collapsed instantly, so frightened that Song Jiang and others ran to the side. No longer dare to block the advance of the officers and soldiers.
At this time, there was no need for the Chinese army camp to issue orders. After discovering that an elite army of officers and soldiers actually attacked the Chinese army tent from the side and rear, those Liangshan troops who were still struggling to climb the wall quickly retreated. , and then, regardless of Zhujiazhuang Ding's all-out counterattack behind him, he turned around and headed straight for his own camp.
At this time, the Liangshan bandits finally exposed their biggest weakness: they paid too much attention to loyalty, especially Song Jiang, and were deeply afraid that something would happen to him.
In fact, this has always been the strength of Liangshan. Because of their deep loyalty, these people can unite and work as one. It is precisely because they sincerely admire Song Jiang as a person that they come from three mountains and five mountains, and people with different statuses can gather together. Here, an elite force capable of competing with the government and the court was gathered. However, when Song Jiang was really in danger, even if they had the upper hand at this time, they might be able to capture Zhujiazhuang with just one more breath. Everyone would withdraw their troops without hesitation at the first moment. There are plenty of opportunities to save Zhujiazhuang and fight again, but if Brother Gongming has any luck, it will be over.
After a round of fighting, only about 800 of the nearly thousand Liangshan soldiers and horses were left. At this time, they had all turned around and rushed towards the Qingzhou Army from three sides to outflank them. This speed was more than three minutes faster than the previous attack on Zhujiazhuang.
Everyone in Zhujiazhuang stood stunned on the spot. Even at this time, they could not recover from the shock. Just now, everyone has come up with the idea of fighting to the death, and if you can kill one person, it will be yours.
Even Zhu Taigong Zhu Cheng, the father of the three brothers of the Zhu family, had already asked someone to fetch his sword. He planned to draw his sword and kill himself in the end, rather than fall into the hands of thieves and be humiliated. As a result, as soon as his sword reached his neck, he heard the cry of the rebels retreating from in front. The old man was so excited that his hands shook and he almost scratched a wound on his neck.
Zhu Biao also pursed his lips, and after a while he suddenly laughed: "The reinforcements have arrived... I knew that Sun Dujian would come to Zhujiazhuang and keep his promise!" He still remembered that Sun Tu was there at the time. What he told himself and Hu Rong in Qingdian Town was that as long as they asked for help, the Qingzhou Army would come to rescue... However, when he mentioned this two days ago, his father, brother and others did not agree, and the letter could not be sent out. .
But Sun Tu came anyway, descending from the sky with the elite soldiers of the Qingzhou Army, and unexpectedly solved the crisis in Zhujiazhuang, which made Zhu Biao really excited.
The one who was more excited than him was Hu Rong in Hujiazhuang in the distance. The woman's eyes were a little red at this time, her body was trembling slightly, and she murmured: "You are indeed here, you really did not disappoint me... Are you really the great hero I have been waiting for?" I thought. Finally, her pretty face turned red again, but the anger just now turned into shyness now...
After a while, Hu Rong quickly jumped off the high platform and shouted to his father and brother who were also stunned: "Dad, second brother, can't we send troops to rescue now?"
"This..." The appearance of the officers and soldiers really broke the original situation, leaving the two men of the Hu family at a loss as to what to choose.
At this time, the battle situation in the Liangshan military camp changed again. The Qingzhou Army, which was rapidly pursuing Song Jiang and was about to catch up with them and start killing them, suddenly drew an arc deftly at the moment when the opponent was about to fight for his life and bypassed Song Jiang. Passing the opponent, he quickly passed through the gap between several Liangshan soldiers and horses who were attacking with all their strength, and rushed straight to Zhujiazhuang.
It turned out that Sun Tu had never thought of actually killing Song Jiang in one battle. The shot just now was just a false shot. Once the Liangshan troops retreated in a hurry, he had already led his troops towards Zhujiazhuang. Of course, at the moment when they came face to face with the enemy, these Qingzhou soldiers would not miss the opportunity to kill the enemy. Several rounds of crossbow arrows were fired out like a heavy rain, and they shot down no less than a hundred Liangshan soldiers at once, while waiting for the opponent When they wanted to fight back, they had already rowed away quickly, leaving no chance for anyone to hurt themselves.
When they rushed to the ecstasy forest, Sun Tu shouted: "When you see the poplar tree, go to the left, that's the way to survive!" He still clearly remembered the key points in this story.
Then, a scene that shocked everyone once again appeared. The Qingzhou Army, who had just come here, actually knew the roads well. They passed through the ecstasy forest that Zhujiazhuang was proud of without any damage, and arrived at the main entrance of Zhujiazhuang safely. forward.
Zhu Biao was originally worried that something would happen to them in the woods, but now he was a little shocked. It wasn't until he heard someone outside shouting for them to open the village door that he hurriedly ordered: "Open the door quickly, and we will also go down to welcome Sun Dujian and the others into the village..."
As Sun Tu led his army to suddenly attack, the battle that was supposed to end with the destruction of Zhujiazhuang finally ended strangely, but the battle was far from over...
