Xiaocang River, the sun is shining brightly, but it is a difficult day for the incoming green forest people.
In the past nearly a year since Ning Yi's regicide, green forest people have come to Xiaocang River to try to assassinate him. In fact, there have been people from the green forest every month. These people come in pieces, and are either killed or in Xiaocang River.
He was discovered outside the river, escaped with injuries, and caused a small number of casualties in Xiaocang River, which did not affect the overall situation. However, in the entire Wu Dynasty society and among the green forests, the name "Inner Demon" had already dropped to negative numbers.
For more than half a year after being assigned the task, the chief catcher Fan Zhong has been working on this, summoning the green forest heroes to prepare for the attack on Ning Yi. Before this, Zhu Ji had already told Zhou Tong about the assassination of Nianhan
It was so tragic that when Fan Zhong went to pull people away, many indignant Green Forest people were incited by Zhu Ji. Such things often made Fan Zhong, Tie Tianying and others find it ironic and interesting.
This time, there were 362 Green Forest people gathered outside the Xiaocang River. They were a mixture of three religions and nine streams. Some of the Green Forest people who had surrendered after being captured by Ning Yi, or who had a previous enmity, were also called over.
For example, Guan Sheng, Qin Ming, etc., they were defeated by Ning Yi in Liangshan, and later entered the army. When Ning Yi rebelled, he ignored them, but after the liquidation, they naturally no longer have a good life. Now they are
Send him here to make meritorious deeds.
As for people like Lei Heng and Li Jun, after Liangshan was broken, they were chased everywhere by the forces of the Right Prime Minister's Palace, and they were in fear all day long. After Fan Zhong found them, he promised them huge profits and also added threats, so they followed.
come over.
But when the group of people who had dealt with Ning Yi before met each other, most of them had complicated expressions.
In addition to the main entrance of Xiaocanghe, which is easy to defend and difficult to attack, there are still rugged mountain roads around it that can be detoured in. The time to attack is during the day because the concealment in the night will also make people unable to see the surrounding mechanisms.
Trap, the inner demon Ning Yi is good at using firearms, mechanisms, and ingenious tricks. Since this time there is an attack by hundreds of people, if it is chosen at night, it may be disrupted by someone unexpectedly.
In any case, everyone had made up their mind to live and die. Grandmaster Zhou sacrificed his life with dozens of people to assassinate him. He almost killed Nianhan. He had hundreds of people accompanying him. Even if he failed, he still had to make the inner demon frightened.
When making plans, everyone responded in this way.
It's just that when faced with life and death, I encountered embarrassment.
***************
In order to contain the defense forces in the Xiaocang River Valley, the Green Forest people chose three locations in total for this attack.
First, sneak up the west hillside with a small number of people. If they are discovered or not discovered, a group of about 80 green forest experts will try to break through the main entrance of the Xiaocang River mouth. The road here is narrow and it is difficult to defend.
It is difficult to attack, but there are many people in the green forest who are good at flying over eaves and climbing walls.
Yes, if these experts attack and kill them, the other party can't break the embankment. As long as they get on the river embankment, there won't be too many people fighting each other in the narrow place, not to mention that there is water next to it, and there are many people in the green forest.
The water-resistant ones, led by Li Jun, were enough to catch Xiaocanghe's defenders off guard.
The real attack was placed on the east side of the mountain. It was finally launched. It went up the mountain from the trail that had been initially explored, climbed over it, and went straight to the lair of the inner demon. According to the intelligence of the Ministry of Punishment, this time Xiaocanghe went out to grab food from the mountain and defended it.
All the troops are dispatched. Even if there are defenders left, there must not be many. The Green Forest people may be close to attacking the battle formation, but they only need to rush in and wait for the opportunity to kill the inner demon. Everyone's efforts will be rewarded.
Xu Qiang was among the more than 200 main forces on the east side. He didn't know the specific situation of the other two groups. It was just that this group had just begun and encountered problems.
"White Fang Gun" Yu Lie stepped on the fire thunder and was blown away. Xu Qiang was covered in blood. This was not a strange problem. When they set out, everyone expected that there would be a trap. It was just that the trap was powerful.
It was so big that the guards on the mountain would definitely be alerted. The "Rogue" He Longqian who was leading the team from the front shouted: "Everyone, be careful of the newly moved places on the ground!"
"Broken Gate Sword" Li Yanni said: "Anyway, the mountain has been alarmed. I don't want to stay any longer and will kill him immediately."
For a moment, the crowd was excited, but the real problem occurred after running a few steps. A shout came from behind: "Guan Sheng! I knew you had a problem!"
The speaker was Hao Siwen, the former hero of Liangshan. He, Lei Heng, and Guan Sheng were all standing not far away without moving. Hearing this voice, everyone turned around subconsciously and saw Guan Sheng holding a big sword.
, with a gloomy expression. At this time, there were still some people around, and someone asked: "Guan Sheng, why don't you leave!"
Someone came up and said, "Brother Guan, I have something to say."
Although the attack on the mountain started at this time, it was also the most urgent moment. Just after the explosion, who knew what enemies would appear on the mountain. Some people subconsciously gathered around. Guan Sheng took two steps back and escaped from the surrounding people. He saw
He actually resisted, and the people nearby subconsciously stepped forward. Guan Sheng swept out his sword with a horizontal stroke. The weapons of the three people nearby collided with his sword, and they all backed away.
"After passing Liangshan, I had no contact with the man named Ning. But can you go up today?"
Hao Siwen gritted his teeth: "You were defeated by that inner demon!"
"It's a useless thing, just get yourself killed." Guan Sheng glanced at the heroes on the mountain, "Huh, Hao Siwen, you thought wrong about me, but you were right about one thing. With the inner demon's calculations, how could there be nothing in between?
His people? I’m afraid it’s not just one or two. In a battle like this, I think Fan Zhong is the one who has the demon in his heart!”
"Sophistry! Guan Sheng, please speak clearly. Do you dare to admit it if you dare to do it?"
Someone rushed towards him. Guan Sheng turned around, flicked his blade, and forced the man away. He stepped out towards the way he came from: "Now that the matter is at this point, what's the use of Guan saying more..."
Before he finished speaking, a figure on the hillside raised a steel whip and mace, smashing the heads of the two people around him like watermelons. The man laughed, but it was "Thunderbolt" Qin Ming: "Guan Family
Brother is right, a group of rabble came here voluntarily, how could there not be spies among them! He is not, but Qin is! "
Someone nearby who reacted quickly drew his sword and rushed over: "Kill him!"
Qin Ming swung his steel whip, and his feet retreated several feet. The man who drew the sword rushed at him again, and with a bang, the ground exploded, sending the man flying away, and blood sprayed all over the ground.
Qin Ming stood there, but no one dared to pass by. He shook the steel whip in his hand and said: "A bunch of stupid dogs! They fail to accomplish anything but fail! They dare to pretend to be chivalrous, but in fact they are extremely ignorant. You guys can take advantage of this little fool.
They come to kill people when the river is empty, but does anyone know why the Xiaocang River is empty?"
"Don't listen to his nonsense!" A locust stone flew over and was smashed open by Qin Ming.
"As you can see, the entire Xiaocanghe army is marching westward. The 200,000 Xixia army is now raging in the northwest. The entire Xiaocanghe army has gone to fight the Xixia people! You little bastards! Huaxia
When the enemy fell and their lives were in ruins, they didn’t dare to fight with foreigners. They only dared to sneak here to show off their power and make a name for themselves. Let’s all die here!”
His words echoed in the mountain. After saying this, the figure flew back and disappeared into the rocks in the distance. Everyone on the hillside looked at each other. Xu Qiang's face was still covered with blood, and for a moment he felt that his teeth were sore.
No power.
A group of people put their lives on the line to slay the devil, and they have just begun. There are traitors and internal strife. This iron rope is across the river, and you can't go up or down, so how can you fight?
After a moment, someone shouted: "This is a trick to confuse the public. The inner demon is the best at this kind of treacherous trick. I knew the dangers when I came here, so you can't be shaken. Come on, follow me and kill you."
Then someone responded: "That's right! Go ahead and get rid of this devil."
Everyone shouted and rushed up the mountain. After a while, there was another explosion, someone was blown away, and figures gradually appeared on the top of the mountain. Arrows also began to fly down...
****************
In the river valley, the sounds of fighting and explosions outside could be vaguely heard. In the yard halfway up the mountain, Ning Yi came out with tea and cakes, humming a light tune.
"The waves of a big river are wide... The wind blows the fragrance of rice flowers on both sides. My home is on the river... I am used to listening to the boatman's call. I am used to seeing the white sails on the boat... The girl is like... a flower..."
Beside the gate of the courtyard, the old man stood there with his hands behind his back, looking up at the balloons flying in the sky. In the basket where the balloons were hung, someone was holding a red and white flag and waving it there.
"This thing is about to fly away. How should we turn it around?"
"My friend is here... I have good wine. If that jackal comes... well, it can't turn. It can only rely on the wind. It doesn't matter where it blows. Mr. Zuo, come and have tea."
Zuo Duanyou walked over, picked up a piece of pastry, put it into his mouth and ate it, then clapped his hands and continued to listen to the sound of fighting outside: "Several hundred green forest people are almost dead if they rush up. It seems that Li Heng is really not afraid.
You have offended the whole world. If you are angry, your blood will be splashed ten steps, and you will never have peace in the future."
Ning Yi drank a cup of tea: "I have been offended for a long time, haven't I?"
******************
On the east side of the foothills, on the rugged cliff behind, two ropes were hanging there silently. Amid the lively fighting outside, dozens of people were struggling to climb up the rock wall along the most impossible rock wall.
Climb up.
Li Pin was one of them. His face turned red, and his hands had been torn by the rope. However, with the help of his companions, he, who was already weak, still climbed to the top of the mountain without mercy.
So far, they have not alerted any of the defenders of Xiaocang River, because it is really difficult to go up and down this cliff. However, they found a strange man who can climb through the mountain, which is Li Pin's biggest reliance on this trip.
.
Ning Yi has been running the Xiaocang River for a year. Even if most of the troops in the mountains have gone out, it is still impossible to sneak in secretly and assassinate. For this day's attack, Fan Zhong gathered a large group of Green Forest people, but Li
Feng didn't trust this team from the beginning. This may have been influenced by Ning Yi. Without strict organization of manpower, it would be useless.
They are just bait.
On the mountain wall here, everyone pulled on the rope one by one and climbed forward again. The wind blew from the west. Li Pin stood at the final foothold. After resting, he was about to go up again when he was suddenly stunned.
Stunned, many people were also stunned for a moment.
A huge hot air balloon floated out from the mountain along the wind. Li Pin raised a telescope in his hand and looked over there. In the basket in the sky, a person was also looking over with a telescope, his expression seemed to be confused.
Slightly deformed.
The man in the basket put down his telescope and shook the flag in his hand vigorously!
"superior"
Li Pin shouted
