Governor please stay

Chapter 188
Mountains, south and water to the north are called yang, and mountains to the north and water to the south are called yin.As soon as you hear the name, you know that Pingyin is south of Jishui, and it is very likely that there are mountains to the south of it, which is indeed the case.

However, although Pingyin has the word "Ping" in its name, it is an area with relatively complicated terrain.Although the land is not big, it can be said that there are mountains and water in the territory.There are Dazhai Mountain and Cuiping Mountain towering into the sky in the surrounding area, and there are winding rivers, hills one after another, hillsides next to hillsides, and depressions after depressions.

There is a local saying in later generations: Pingyin is not yin, Pingyin is not flat; the mountain road is curved and uneven, which refers to the terrain here.

On the top of a certain hill in Pingyin, Liu Yishou was wearing leather armor, looking at the potholed dirt road below, a young man looked around furtively.He didn't look like a military scout, but he was completely different from ordinary pedestrians.

Or in other words, now that Qingxu is in chaos, people with a little understanding will go to Jihe by water, and go by land alone, that is really a bold person with a high skill.

"My lord, Xing Gao's brigade is catching up with the horse's hoof prints. They are marching slowly and are very cautious. This person looks suspicious. Is he the vanguard of Xing Gao's army? Or, how about shooting him?"

Yuan Shikang asked quietly in Liu Yishou's ear.

Pingyin has already laid a net of heaven and earth.If the kid under the hill spoiled the good deed, wouldn't it be a failure?
In terms of emotion and reason, this person should be killed!

"Look at him, he is short-sleeved. Obviously he pretended to be a monk first, and then grew a little hair on the road. He is wearing the cloth robes that refugees often have, and it is still patched. You go and catch him. Bring me here, I have something to ask the man."

Liu Yishou pointed to the sneaky young man who was trying to sneak out of the road between the hills, smiled and shook his head.

This hill is actually very low, strictly speaking it can only be regarded as a dirt slope.The reason why the terrain around here is good for ambushes is because there is a very steep hill in front of it, and there are many bends and turns, and there are not steep hills along the way.

Yu Jin and others led troops to ambush here.

And Yu Wentai's men and horses were on standby at the end of the hillside.Not far from this road, some copper coins and cloth fell on the ground to confuse the enemy.

Yuan Shikang was strong in martial arts, and after a while, he captured this person and brought him to Liu Yishou.

His face was dirty, but he looked quite handsome. Judging from certain details of his body, he was born either rich or noble, and he was definitely not something that could be raised by families with their faces turned to the loess and their backs to the sky.

Judging from his appearance of only seventeen or eighteen years old, he is obviously the same age as Liu Yishou.

"This one, what's your name?"

Liu Yishou asked with a smile, but the smile seemed a bit malicious.

Unexpectedly, this person of the same age said neither humble nor overbearing: "Xiayang Xiuzhi, the son of the former general Yang Gu, this trip is from Qingzhou to Luoyang Jingji, I don't know why the general detains me?"

This man is interesting!No, it should be very interesting!
Liu Yishou suddenly wanted to know what the guy in front of him was planning.Now everyone knows that Luoyang is a fire pit, whoever goes will die!In particular, the Northern Expedition of Liang Guo's army is in full swing. You, a son of an official, went to Luoyang to hold Yuan Ziyou's stinky feet.In the future, when Yuan Hao wins Luoyang, are you going to kneel and lick Yuan Hao while pinching your nose?

"Then why are you going to Gyeonggi? Gyeonggi is not safe now."

Liu Yishou said in a deep voice.

Yang Xiuzhi shook his head and said: "The general only knows one thing but not the other. If you go to Gyeonggi, you may die, but if you stay in Qingzhou, people like me will definitely die. Comparing the two, there is still a line between Gyeonggi and Gyeonggi." vitality."

Ok?
Liu Yishou and Yuan Shikang looked at each other, both felt that what this person said was very unusual.

He pointed to a stone beside him and said, "Sit down, let's chat."

Seeing that Liu Yishou and the others seemed to have no malicious intentions, Yang Xiu became more courageous, sat on the floor, and looked at Liu Yishou without stage fright.

"You just said that you will die if you stay in Qingzhou. Why? You don't need to worry too much, just answer truthfully."

Yang Xiuzhi was silent for a moment, then sighed and said: "I came from Hebei, and my family is also considered a rich family. When I went south to Qingzhou, I had no choice but to attach myself to Xing Gao. But I think Xing Gao's behavior is rough, and he doesn't think about the way out. I am afraid that there will be many troubles later. .

Once Xing Gao's incident fails, my family and I will definitely be harmed by the locals of Qingzhou. After all, this is how Xing Gao dealt with them back then.But my father, uncle and others refused to listen to my advice, so in desperation, I had no choice but to go on my way.After all, if I die, the family can still continue. If our whole family is killed by the locals of Qingzhou, then the family will be wiped out. "

Yang Xiuzhi said with emotion: "When I came here, I happened to meet Xing Gao's army fighting for money, and I don't know who left it on the side of the road. These people completely disregard military discipline, and their defeat is imminent. Thanks to me and their generals Familiar with him, otherwise he will definitely be harmed by him this time."

This kid is a genius!

Even Yuan Shikang was giving Liu Yishou winks.

"Okay, you can follow me now, just in time to watch me defeat the enemy. Come, someone, change this brother Yang's military uniform."

Putting on the military uniform, if someone from Xing Gao's army found out, it would be a dead end. Yuan Shikang secretly sighed in his heart, Liu Yishou is so proficient at setting people up.

Yang Xiuzhi was not hypocritical, he changed into Wei Jun's black military uniform obediently, and stood beside Liu Yishou without saying a word, not knowing what he was thinking.

In the words just now, Yang Xiuzhi revealed a lot of "inside information", one of which is that Xing Gaojun still fell into the big hole that Liu Yishou planted at the beginning.

There is really a big question mark about how much fighting spirit the army that has already received the money will have.

At the beginning, Yu Jin chose to ambush here because he inspected the terrain of this section of the road, and there was no place suitable for camping.Only by passing through this section of road quickly during the day can we camp not far away for the night.

"The whole army is on alert, the enemy army should be coming."

When Yang Xiuzhi said that he met Xing Gaojun on the road, the implication was that the other party was actually not far behind him.Strictly speaking, Yang Xiu's family is considered the "local administrator" of Xing Gao's army, and they also came from Hebei.

The appearance of these people is also closely related to Ge Rong's actions in Hebei.Yang Xiuzhi's thinking of going to Luoyang at the moment is his judgment on the political situation.Liu Yishou turned on the "future mode", so he knew what might happen.

But Yang Xiuzhi judged that they would encounter a catastrophe just by relying on Ge Rong's destruction. This person really has a good brain!

After a while, a team composed entirely of pawns slowly appeared in the field of vision, and when viewed from a distance, it was impossible to see the end at a glance.

"There are too many people riding horses, right?"

Liu Yishou frowned slightly, Xing Gao seemed to be a little... not talking about martial arts this time.To do it, or not to do it, sometimes, this choice can even determine life and death.

On the hill, Liu Yishou watched Xing Gao's army pass by arrogantly on the dirt road with potholes, but never gave a signal for a beacon.Yuan Shikang who was standing aside was a little anxious.

Although they are just an observation post and there are not many people here, it is the most important place for signaling.

If he didn't send a signal, Yu Wentai wouldn't lead people to block Xing Gao's army.Once the wolf smoke is lit, he will push many big stones down the mountain, temporarily blocking the way.

Blocking the road, the number of Xing Gao's army far exceeds expectations, and if the ambush is not careful, it will be smashed into a paste.

If you don't block it, you will be ambushed for nothing this time, and there is still a risk of exposure.

"Yuan Shikang."

"The end is here!"

"Light up the wolf smoke!"

Liu Yishou ordered decisively.

"Here!"

Yuan Shikang was trembling with excitement, he knew that Liu Yishou would definitely not back down.

"Let's get started, it's all here, how can you disappoint Xing Gao, right?"

The smoke was lit, and thick smoke billowed behind Liu Yishou.He turned his head and said to Yuan Shikang: "Let's go, this place is no longer safe."

……

Liu Jun, a native of Guangchuan, Hebei (near today's Hengshui County), gathered a crowd to revolt in Hebei before Ge Rong came, but he died in the end.He kept his name incognito, and then followed Xing Gao to Qingxu south, and achieved the position of leader.

This man is not only powerful, but also very good at using troops. In the battle against Wei's imperial army in Weishui, he was the first to break the Wei army's formation, and he was the general Xing Gao relied on most.

However, this time in pursuit of the Wei army, Liu Jun had a bad premonition in his heart.

The original plan was that they would use the water army to carry out "landing operations" with the Ji River as the artery.When they found the enemy's position, they used the Jihe River as a medium to disembark and reorganize the army at the nearest section, and then formed an formation to fight against the enemy.

The territory of Shandong is narrow, and the overall trend is east-west.Relying on this style of play, they defeated the mighty imperial guards of Wei State with many cavalry.A hundred years earlier, Liu Yu also used a combination of boats and chariots to defeat the elite cavalry of the Northern Wei Dynasty.

So there is actually nothing wrong with this style of play, not to mention the rumors in the intelligence that the "Forbidden Army" of Wei State in Jinan County does not have many cavalry, even if there are, it is not harmful.

But what Liu Jun didn't understand was why Xing Gao suddenly changed his strategy and let himself go under the water in Zhongchuan and chase after him on foot.Perhaps it was because it was very close to Dongping County, the home of the enemy army.

It is easy for the whole army to be wiped out when sailing on the river section controlled by the enemy. From this point of view, Xing Gao's worries are not wrong.

"General Liu, this place seems to be very suitable for ambushes."

The lieutenant whispered in Liu Jun's ear.

Liu Jun looked at the mountains on both sides that were not so high and steep, nodded slightly and said, "It makes sense, but you only know one thing and don't know the other." He was not riding a horse, and was extremely vigilant with a sword in his hand.

"We are just a vanguard, only 2 people. Behind us, there are tens of thousands of Hanwang's horses as backup. Even if we lose the battle here, someone will help us. What are you afraid of?"

The deputy general thought for a while, and it seemed that this was indeed the case, but he always felt that something was wrong.

Liu Jun continued: "The King of Han lost for a while last time, and he was defeated by this person. The King of Han learned from the pain and decided not to play any tricks with this person. Anyway, there are so many of us, so we just take turns to play him to death!"
So what if they were ambushed here?us……"

Before the words were finished, someone behind him suddenly shouted: "General, there is smoke!"

Liu Jun was trembling all over, as if a basin of cold water was poured on his head in winter.He yelled: "Stop advancing, form formation!"

It's a pity that Xing Gao is just a grassroots team no matter what, and he can play around with orders in the army when he is in the wind. Once he is ambushed, his lack of experience will be fully exposed.

Boom!
Not far ahead, there was a huge boulder rolling down the hillside. Dozens of big boulders piled up in an instant, blocking the dirt road!
Liu Jun's complexion changed drastically, and he said to the lieutenant general: "Pass the order, the front team will change to the rear team, withdraw!"

At this time, nothing will work. The most stupid way is to send the soldiers of the front team to turn around while running, and then just run desperately!

I am really crow's mouth when I step on a horse!

Liu Jun secretly hated, but he wasn't particularly panicked.If you lose, you lose, it doesn't matter.This is like the technique of drawing a sword. When the sword is not drawn, it is the most threatening. If it is used well, it can often kill opponents who are much higher than oneself.

However, once the knife is out of the sheath, it is gone forever.As long as your opponent doesn't fall, you will probably be the one who falls!
"Kill!" "Kill!" "Kill!"

On the hillside, ignited arrows were shot, while some people threw clay pots full of kerosene, and some people did nothing but shouted at the top of their voices to create panic.

Liu Jun didn't answer at all, he ordered all teams of sword and shield soldiers to protect the sides, and the rest ran away!Even if it's chaotic, it doesn't stop at all!
The reason is very simple, what's the point of resisting in such a situation of being ambushed by others and covered with bows and arrows?This way, you will definitely be beaten without any strength to fight back!

Running quickly is the most important thing!
……

"Hey, the leader of Xing Gao's army has some skills."

Liu Yishou squatted among the trees on a certain hill, secretly watching the fight at the foot of the mountain.Xing Gao's army was extremely numerous, but they obeyed orders.Although he was a little panicked, his running speed was still fast.

On the whole, this army has not collapsed yet, although this time it has lost a lot.

"It's a pity that the entrance here is too wide, and there is no way to close the road. Otherwise, these people's lives will all be accounted for here."

Liu Yishou raised his chin, and said to himself thoughtfully.

"My lord, what should I do next?"

Yuan Shikang asked anxiously.

There is no doubt that the ambush was successful. Xing Gaojun estimated that there were thousands of corpses this time.But the opponent still ran away a lot of people. After all, the size of this team was much larger than Liu Yishou's pre-estimated.

"Notify Yuwentai, take everyone, leave all the luggage, and only carry dry food, and chase the enemy! They have no horses, and they have walked for such a long distance, so they can't run far. Let me chase as far as I can!"

"Here!"

Yuan Shikang explained a few words to the soldiers, and after the other party went down, he asked Liu Yishou again: "What did you say to General Yu?"

"Let him follow Yuwentai after the army is assembled, and chase together without bringing any troublesome things. This time, we will run to Licheng even with one pair of feet! Along the way, whoever stands in the way Who to kill! Kill as many as there are, those who retreat in the army will be cut! Those who shake the morale of the army will be cut! Those who say they will retreat will be cut!

Let Yu Jin go first, I'll be there later. "

Liu Yishou said three murderous "cuts" with a face full of murder, which shocked Yang Xiu beside him.
