Chapter 249 – The County King’s Plan to Use His Body as Bait
Chapter 249 – County King’s Plan to Use His Body as Bait
One thousand Iron Floating Guards rested in place.
Han Jiulang and Bai Jianzhi raised a pile of torches, and the group sat in a circle, roasting dried meat and dried food.
Xin Zhuo once again took out the topographical map, he found that his ability to foresee danger was very apt, this seemed to be an instinct that had existed since the beginning of Volsung Mountain.
He felt as if there was some sort of odd danger or trap waiting to be jumped in this neighborhood, his right eyelid inexplicably throbbed badly.
Sliding his finger along the topographical map a little bit and pointing to a spot, he suddenly got up and said: “Send someone to inform the Western Qin soldiers who came to meet us that they don’t need to go to the White Mist Mountain, and split a part of them to sneak into the two sides of the White Gully Stream, and the rest of them swagger along the road to pick me up, and then feel their way over along the same route that we came from. And then send someone to inform Xinglingfu that no matter if I am dead or alive, I am not allowed to come to my rescue!”
Sheng Lingge, the only one who knew about the soldiers, looked at the map with a confused look on his face: “Past the White Gully Stream is Xingling Prefecture, there can’t possibly be an ambush there, what’s the point of going there? Why don’t we go north from White Mist Mountain, meet up with the greeting army, and go directly to Xingling Prefecture!”
“I suspect that the Western Region soldiers won’t let me pass easily!”
Xin Zhuo looked into the distance, suddenly his pupils shrunk, only to see flying birds and smoke rising up in the distance, not knowing if it was a friend or foe, he immediately said, “Get on your horse, go!”
The group of people hadn’t even eaten anything yet, and immediately took the Iron Floating Guards and headed straight for White Mist Mountain.
This side has just moved, the left and right sides have already scurried out 20,000 to 30,000 strange armored western soldiers, spears and white swords like forests, wow wow wow wow wow wow wow wow wow wow wow wow wow wow wow wow wow wow strange screams straight into the sky.
Finally saw the Western soldiers, the horse is the iron blood war horse, soldiers are tall and big tomato soldiers, big nose, blue eyes, look quite bluffing.
Never experienced war Huang Dagui, white tip fine and Murong Hugh a group of people scared face is white, desperately beat the horse whip.
“Run run run ……”
A thousand Iron Floating Guards ran frantically, tens of thousands of Western Region soldiers wailed and screamed strangely to catch up, and arrows saved up like rain.
Fortunately, the Iron Floating Guards have been in the battlefield for a long time and are well trained, while running, they reverse ride and shoot back.
You come and go, killing and retreating.
Dozens of miles of road, in a flash, the front is the white mist mountain, around the white mist mountain and then traveling 15 miles is the white ditch stream, after the white ditch stream is controlled in the hands of the Western Qin soldiers in the hands of the eight provinces, more than 100,000 troops are located.
Xin Zhuo and his entourage just climbed the hillock of White Mist Mountain, a heart instantly sank again.
Only to see the broad field in front of them, two to three million various Western elite cavalry arranged in a neat square formation, led by a dozen young men and women with golden helmets and iron armor, are waiting in good order.
“This road will not work!”
A valiant female Western Region general in the center waved her lance and stepped forward, laughing loudly.
“What to do? How to do?” White tip fine before and after look, anxious straight jump, “before and after add up to 50,000 to 60,000 people, we just a thousand!”
“1,000 versus 50,000, I have the advantage!”
Huang Dagui violently raised his sword, “Kill!”
“Must not! The County King is the guts of the Western Qin soldiers, once there is a loss, more than 100,000 Western Qin soldiers will be finished!”
Sheng Lingge grabbed Xin Zhuo’s arm, “County King must not be reckless, let’s go to White Mist Mountain to hide for a while, if Third Master knows about this, he will surely send a large army to rescue us!”
Xin Zhuo slapped off his hand, stretched his waist, his mood was calm, tightened his warhorse to be the first to charge up the mountain: “Then let’s go up the mountain!”
One thousand Iron Floating Guards diverted and charged straight to the top of White Mist Mountain.
“Gulp!”
The tens of thousands of Western soldiers in front of them advanced neatly.
“Gulp!”
The tens of thousands of Western Region pursuers behind them had also pressed towards the foot of the mountain.
The tens of thousands of people’s neat and earth-shattering trumpet sounds made one’s scalp numb to hear.
Xin Zhuo and his entourage had already followed the winding mountain road to the halfway point of the mountainside, turning back to look down from the heights, more clearly appreciate the tens of thousands of troops pressing the black pressure of the scene, and people’s hands and feet cold sense of shock. “What in the world does Gollum mean?”
Murong Hugh approached Sheng Lingge and lowered his voice to ask.
“Nothing specific!”
Sheng Lingge looked at Xin Zhuo with a worried face, “It’s a western dialect, also called Gelu or Gulu, similar to the meaning of Hail, Invincible! Kind of like the might of the Western Qin soldiers!”
“It’s also known as a trumpet! For pretending!” Huang Dagui made a summary.
Talking has reached the top of the mountain, Xin Zhuo scanned the circle, a little disappointed, from the map to see the White Mist Mountain seems to be very large, and the Volcano Mountain is almost the same, but ran up but found that it is a small hill, thanks to only a thousand people, in exchange for ten or twenty thousand people up, may not be able to squeeze.
After pondering for a while, he calmly sat down, signaling sweet potato to open the baked dry food, continue to eat.
As a result, a group of people were preoccupied and gloomy, and he was the only one eating sweetly.
Xin Zhuo ate three pieces of dried meat before he curiously looked at the crowd: “Not hungry?”
Sheng Lingge smiled bitterly: “The last general can’t eat, the 50,000 to 60,000 enemy elites under the mountain seem to be running towards the county king, we will attack strongly later, how long can we hold on?”
“Who said we have to hold on?” Xin Zhuo laughed, “We’re going to have a fight later, charge out!”
The group of people looked at each other and their faces went a few shades of white.
Win Jian Ying seemed to know the soldiers, cupping her fists, she said, “Slave girl doesn’t know what the county king means, if we want to rush out for a fight, why didn’t we rush just now at the bottom of the mountain, we have to go up the mountain and rush down again? The enemy is already prepared, isn’t rushing down there throwing yourself into a trap?”
These words were also the meaning in the hearts of the people, the County King’s thoughts were really heavenly and incomprehensible.
Xin Zhuo pointed to the Western soldiers that were getting closer and closer under the mountain: “Charging just now and charging now is the same ending, not to mention that the Western Qin soldiers that greeted me are not yet in place, so naturally, I have to go up the mountain to take a break.
Moreover, these people under the mountain are indeed running to me, whether there are other Western soldiers in the distance is not yet known, if I hold on here, Xinglingfu’s Western Qin soldiers will come to the rescue, and the main force of the Western soldiers found that they will definitely make corresponding arrangements.
At that time, the Western Qin soldiers in case we are trapped because we are afraid to let go, the Western Region soldiers and do the intention of siege, not! We have to make the worst guess! They are just besieging the city!
Here, it is likely to eventually evolve into a duel between the Western Qin soldiers and the Western soldiers, more than 100,000 Western Qin soldiers versus hundreds of thousands of millions of Western soldiers, to start a duel, do you think you have a few points of certainty? At the end of the battle, we should also hang up!
Of course, I don’t know the soldiers, but think of the situation in the worst way!”
“And then?” Sheng Lingge heard a bit of an eyebrow, with his understanding of the Western Region soldiers, what the County King said was extremely reasonable, and it was likely that this worst case scenario would arise.
“The West Qin soldiers except for those who greeted me, the rest of them can’t move a single one, just let them clamp down on the main force of the West Domain soldiers in Xinglingfu ……”
Xin Zhuo got up and pointed downwards: “I’ll use myself as bait to try to see if I can take out this group of Western Region barbarians under the mountain!”
“?”
Sheng Lingge was dumbfounded: “How do you do that?”
Xin Zhuo looked at the sun: “Is the one who came to pick me up 15,000 elites?”
“Yes!”
Sheng Lingge nodded his head: “According to the County King’s orders, divide 5,000 into an ambush at the White Gully Stream, and the remaining 10,000 will head straight to the east, circling around along the road we came from!”
Xin Zhuo laughed: “Is it possible for a thousand Iron Floating Guards to fight one against ten?”
Sheng Lingge hesitated for a moment: “That’s right!”
“I’ve looked at it, the other side doesn’t have any Zun Shi realm experts!”
Xin Zhuo stretched his back: “This ten or so of my men can stand up to ten thousand again, three, four, five against fifty or sixty thousand, the advantage is mine! Charge out and counter-encircle the wave! Everyone change armor!”
