Chapter 39 Chapter 38: Relief

Yu Chigong turned upside down, and laughed loudly, with a teasing taste in his smile, he reached out to touch Lu Zhongming's body, and said, "Yo, you are not young."

Lu Zhongming only thought it was funny, and felt a little pleasure in his heart. It was the pleasure of seeing each other naked without any barriers.

"Don't...don't touch it." Lu Zhongming's breath became heavy, and he felt a little pain from being touched. It wasn't the rough skin and flesh, but the pain underneath.

Yuchi Gong asked in a low voice: "Pain?"

"A little bit." Lu Zhongming leaned on Yuchi Gong's shoulder, and Yu Chi Gong said: "Then don't touch it, go to sleep."

Yu Chigong was unexpectedly gentle, but Lu Zhongming was not at ease. He rubbed around all night, feeling as if he hadn't eaten enough or enjoyed himself.

From this day on, Lu Zhongming changed Yu Chigong's medicine every day and took care of his eyes, but it was useless to worry, it would take at least ten days to get better, and he suddenly felt that Yu Chigong's temporary blindness was also a good thing.At least so far, no one will arrange what they do.

Among the envoys sent by the king of Tang, one is blind, one is foolish, and the other is rebellious.Presumably everyone also felt that this small team was unreliable, and its combat effectiveness was even more mediocre. Naturally, no one gave them any expectations.

A few days passed, and Yu Chigong was happy to spend leisurely time with Lu Zhongming, until the day Zhai Rang sent someone to inform them of the deployment, Li Mi personally came to send the team out of the city.Yu Chigong's eyes were still not healed, he was riding a horse outside the city, Li Jing's entire army was already waiting here.

"It's been quite hectic these days." Li Mi said, "After I've leveled Wang Shichong, I'll have a good talk with Jingde."

Yu Chigong nodded, clasped his fists and said, "Let's go."

The army marched out, and this time everyone was riding horses. When they had just turned across the plain and entered the hinterland of Beiman Mountain, Yu Chigong said, "Order the whole army to set up camp."

Lu Zhongming was stationed at the height of the horse to observe the terrain. In ancient times, he was born in Suzhou and Hangzhou and died in Beimang. He said that this place has been the first choice for the dragon's cave for thousands of years, and its Fengshui is extremely prosperous.Li Jing was called, and the three held a meeting to guess the marching routes of Wang Shichong and Li Mi. In the end, Yu Chigong threw a branch and said, "Let's just sit back and wait."

Li Jing said: "Pu Shangong didn't recruit you?"

Yu Chigong shook his head, smiled helplessly, Lu Zhongming said: "I don't know what he said that day."

Yu Chigong said: "Let me stab the pharmacist and break with Tang Wang, it's too much to think about."

Li Jing said calmly: "If it is useful to brother Yuchi, Li Jing's head should be given to him."

Li Jing went to line up his troops, trying not to be discovered by anyone, and ambushed in the Beimang Mountain. This mountain is huge. As long as you want to hide, it is very easy not to be discovered. For several days, Lu Zhongming undertook the investigation It is my responsibility to monitor the movement of the Yellow River every day.Sure enough, a few days later, the Luoyang defenders crossed the river in a big way, and the Wagang army at Luokou also began to gather teams, divided into multiple routes, and drove to Beimang Mountain.

The two sides were preparing to fight on the mountain, and they set up their own camps. Lu Zhongming was sitting on the top of a towering pine tree on a steep slope. Looking from a distance, at the far end of the world, the Yellow River was rolling eastward like a roaring dragon.

Li Jing shouted under the tree: "Here is a letter from Hedong!"

Lu Zhongming went down immediately, and Li Jing held a letter in his hand, which was about Li Yuan and Qu Tutong's stalemate, and the military confrontation in Hedong. Li Shimin strongly advised to bypass Hedong County and go straight to Chang'an.After all, Wang Shichong was fighting Li Mi at this moment and couldn't withdraw, and the defenders at Hangu Pass couldn't be withdrawn.

Yuchi Gong said: "Tang Wang is good at everything else, but it is easy to make up his mind."

Lu Zhongming also knew that Li Yuan was indecisive, but before he left, he had already given the heaviest medicine. Not only did he leave a bag of advice, but he also reminded Li Shimin not to see the east of the river. There is no need to fight, just go home.

When the three of them were reviewing the military situation, suddenly there was the sound of drums in the distance.

"We're fighting!" Li Jing said.

"Hurry up!" Lu Zhongming said: "I like watching the battle the most! Let's go together!"

Li Jing said: "You go, I will stay behind."

Lu Zhongming resolutely rode on his horse, took Yu Chigong, and took a small path to the high ground, watching the fire from the other side. Lu Zhongming was his favorite. He didn't have to experience the battle himself, he was exhausted to death, and he didn't have to worry about his own victory or defeat. He could also learn a lot through observing the overall situation .

"It's right here." Yu Chigong listened carefully to recognize the voice from the wind, and said, "Don't go any further. I'm afraid I won't be able to protect you."

Lu Zhongming was stationed on the cliff with a longbow in his hand, and looked at the plain below Beiman Mountain. It was noon at this moment, and the army led by Wang Shichong carried the banner with the word "Sui", while Li Mi's banner was marked with the word "Wei".The two sides started the first round of charge.

The situation has changed, and it is a scorching summer day, sweating profusely, and the whole earth is trembling with smoke and dust billowing.While watching, Lu Zhongming explained to Yu Chigong, he saw that in the Wagang Army, Li Mi retreated at the touch of a touch, wandering around the periphery.Instead, Zhai Rang's army resisted the main force.

Two thousand soldiers and horses on the left and right sides launched an impact on Wang Shichong's main force.

"On the left is the handsome flag with the character 'Cheng'." Lu Zhongming said: "On the right is Pei Xingyan."

Yuchi Gong said: "Is there any response from behind?"

"No." Lu Zhongming replied, "Maybe it's just a test."

The two sides fought fiercely for a while, and the smoke and dust filled the air, and nothing could be seen. After a while, a gust of wind blew, and the smoke and dust dispersed.The Sui soldiers were caught off guard, and there was chaos immediately.

"Ah!" Lu Zhongming said, "Cheng Zhijie has returned."

Yuchi respectfully said, "Where are Zhai Rang's people?"

"There is no one to assist." Lu Zhongming saw the team rushing into Wang Shichong's battle formation, and said, "Zhai Rang and the others didn't come out either, it was not an agreement."

After the Sui soldiers experienced a little chaos, they immediately organized a counterattack and suppressed Cheng Zhijie's team.Lu Zhongming immediately said: "Hey! What a pity!"

"Is Cheng Zhijie stuck?" Yu Chigong heard it.

"No." Lu Zhongming said: "The sneak attack failed, and there was no one to respond. The Sui army was already in chaos just now."

"Maybe Cheng Zhijie will be scolded after he goes back." Yuchi said with a smile.

"Well." Lu Zhongming said: "Although there are 10 people in Wagang, they have lost their heads. They don't agree with each other. They fight on their own, and it is easy to miss opportunities."

The two stood on the cliff for a while, seeing that the battle by the Yellow River was obviously not going to continue, so they went back.For several days in a row, the two sides harassed each other, and they stopped after three rounds of beating the drums, and there was no battle.Nearly five days later, a sneak attack finally began.

That night, Lu Zhongming was called up by Li Jing, and hurried to watch the battle. He found that the battlefield was in chaos. The Wagang army ran to the edge of the Yellow River, while the Sui army was about to rush into the mountains. .

"What are you doing?" Lu Zhongming asked inexplicably.

"It should be that both sides wanted to attack the camp at night." Yu Chigong said: "It turned out that they both coincidentally happened to be in the same late night."

Lu Zhongming thought that this was interesting enough. It was the first time I heard that there was such a war. Near the fourth watch, Li Mi's army turned back and counterattacked. The second time they fought, Wang Shichong actually had a secret move. He saw that the Yellow River was full of crossings. The soldiers and horses that came, hundreds of ships sent new troops.

This time Li Mi was in trouble, being caught in the middle by the Sui army, unable to advance or retreat.

"Go to rescue?" Lu Zhongming said.

"Wait a little longer." Yuchi Gong said, "Li Jing, prepare in advance."

At dawn, Yu Chigong asked: "Can you untie the cloth strip now?"

Lu Zhongming pondered for a moment, then replied, "It's best not to."

Yuchi Gong said: "You take me to fight, let's go, let's save people."

Lu Zhongming was surprised, Yuchi smiled and said: "Your life is in your hands."

Lu Zhongming said: "Your legs are just right..."

Yuchi Gong: "Afraid?"

Lu Zhongming said frantically: "You bear! Who is afraid of whom!"

Yu Chigong laughed loudly, Lu Zhongming went to ride the horse without saying a word, Yu Chigong got on the horse, Lu Zhongming put the long spear in his hand, and when he got on the horse, he swept his long legs, Yu Chigong heard the wind and instantly fell back.He was almost swept off his horse by Lu Zhongming Wuying's feet.

Lu Zhongming: "...Sorry, the domineering side leaked."

Yu Chigong: "Who did you learn this horse riding from?"

"My father!" Lu Zhongming roared angrily, "Boys! Come with me! Kill——!"

At the foot of Beiman Mountain, the Sui army came for reinforcements, and their morale was greatly boosted. The Wagang army retreated into the mountain, but an ambush had been set up in the mountain, and fires began to be set in the lower part of the mountain.

There has been no rain for nearly half a month. It is near the end of summer and the beginning of autumn. The wind is high and the things are dry.The mountain was full of black smoke, and the Wagang army retreated into the mountain and immediately lost their positions. Countless people were burned to death and smoked to death.As soon as Lu Zhongming rushed out, he coughed loudly. He and his party were in a place against the wind, and the smoke was blowing from the mountain pass beside the Yellow River. Yu Chigong immediately covered Lu Zhongming's mouth and nose with one hand, and said, "Find water!"

Lu Zhongming turned sideways, leaning on the back of Yu Chigong's hand, holding the rein in his left hand, and drew a rune in the air with his right hand.

"Hmm." Lu Zhongming said in a muffled voice, "Walk around the mountain..."

"What? Cough...cough." Yu Chigong was also choked by the smoke.

When the sky was bright, the mountain fire was raging, and he couldn't see it, and he couldn't see his fingers. Lu Zhongming drew another talisman in the black smoke, and the talisman shone with golden light, like a golden dragon drawn by a sword finger, instantly sinking into the vast expanse. Inside the mountain.

Yuchi Gong: "What are you doing! Cough... Cough..."

Lu Zhongming: "Ghost drawing talisman—!"

As the galloping horse galloped all the way, Lu Zhongming swayed out runes one after another, sank into the mountain, and then rushed to the end of the dragon vein. Lu Zhongming gritted his teeth and shouted as if he was constipated.

"Give me a—"

There was a loud bang, like the chant of a dragon, and the clouds were dense in all directions. At that moment, Lu Zhongming's sword pointed, hooked the dragon's jaw, and raised it vigorously.The heavy pressure caused Bai Yunju to sink slightly, and then hissed loudly.

The dragon veins winding for thousands of miles in Beiman Mountain were completely awakened, and then roared amidst thunder and lightning, rushing towards the sky!

With just a glimpse, the giant dragon transformed into the air was scattered in the air, but it seemed that a giant beast woke up in the sky and earth, and with a thunderous roar, the torrential rain poured down!

At that moment, most of the fire that extinguished most of the mountains, the sky and the earth changed color, Yuchi yelled: "Didn't you say that you can't change the weather?"

"There are dragon veins here! Dragons belong to water!" Lu Zhongming wiped his face and replied loudly, "Drive!"

"Kill—" Li Jing led a thousand Tang troops to join the battle, raised the banner with the word "Tang" and entered the canyon.

The canyon was in chaos, with Sui and Wagang armies fighting everywhere. Beiman Mountain stretched across the terrain. After rushing into the mountain, they were shocked by the thick smoke. The generals lost their direction and fought on their own.Rocks rolled down from a high place, Xu Shiji lost the battle and was killed by the opponent.

"Retreat!" Xu Shiji roared.

However, the rain of arrows is flying, and it is no longer clear where is the self and where is the enemy.

There was a thunderous roar.

"General Xu, please withdraw first! Tang Jun cut off the heir for you!"

"kill--"

Yu Chigong, Li Jing, and Lu Zhongming led their own troops into the battle group. The Tang army charged from a high place and rolled across the canyon like a meat grinder. The Sui army was in chaos in an instant. Xu Shiji held a long spear and shouted: "General Yuchi! I Here to help you!"

An arrow whirled and flew towards Xu Shiji's back neck, but Lu Zhongming's eyes were sharp and his hands were quick, he let go of the string, and another arrow flew up flat with a golden light, splitting the hidden arrow.

Xu Shiji couldn't believe it, and looked at Lu Zhongming from a distance.

"Go!" Li Jing shouted.

Tang Jun covered Xu Shiji's army and withdrew from the canyon. Lu Zhongming shouted, "Where is Xu Shiji! Xu Shiji!"

"Here!" Xu Shiji said, "Come and assemble!"

"No. 886 has been rescued! Li Jing! Let's go!" Lu Zhongming said, waved at Xu Shiji, and said with a smile: "[-]——!"

Xu Shiji: "..."

The thousand Tang troops crossed the mountains and rushed towards the side ridge under the guidance of sentry arrows in the distance. This is the most dangerous place in the battle after retreating into Mang Mountain. There are vast forests behind and tens of thousands of pursuers in front.Wang Shichong personally led the army and vowed to kill Cheng Zhijie!

Cheng Zhijie fought bloody and hard, a lance was shot in his body, a long lance pierced through his abdomen, and nailed him to the mountain wall. The soldiers around him were dead all over the place.

That arrow spanned hundreds of steps, passed Cheng Zhijie's back, grazed his side face, brought up a cloud of blood, and went straight to Wang Shichong's throat!

"Great general!" His expressions changed from left to right, and Wang Shichong's eyes reflected a touch of gold. The arrow had already arrived in front of him, breaking his long bow first, and then splitting his bowstring!Immediately afterwards, there was a light sound, and the castration was not weakened, and his breast shield was shot to pieces, and it turned into powder and scattered in the sky. Wang Shichong was seriously injured by the arrow and vomited blood, and flew out backwards.

"Yuchi Jingde is here—!" Yuchi Gong roared angrily.

Thousands of cavalry were not afraid of death, and charged directly at Wang Shichong's main formation!

The Tang army's charge was carried out in a long and narrow canyon, and the impact force was not comparable to that of the plain.

"It's almost done!" Lu Zhongming shouted.

Yuchi Gong roared: "That's not what you said! You should shout—the enemy is outnumbered—"

"Withdraw!" Lu Zhongming shouted with a smile.

After a round of Tang Jun's charge, the rear team changed to the front team. Lu Zhongming grabbed the injured Cheng Zhijie and dragged him to the horse.

Lu Zhongming: "The second seed!"

Li Jing hurriedly hugged Cheng Zhijie and let him lie behind him, Cheng Zhijie was covered in blood, he smiled disdainfully, broke off the horse lance in front of his chest, and pulled out the long lance that penetrated his body at the waist and abdomen.

"Good man!" Yu Chigong couldn't help shouting when he heard the sound of blood splattering.

Cheng Zhijie couldn't help trembling, a bloodstain dripped down on the bumping horse.

Lu Zhongming said: "Take him back to heal his wounds, Li Jing! I'll leave it to you!"

Yuchi said with a smile, "886—"

The two teams divided up again at the exit of the canyon. Li Jing led Cheng Zhijie back to the camp for treatment, and Yu Chigong ordered the wounded to be counted. Everyone put on bridle hooks and prepared in the lower part of the valley.

After a thousand battles, except for the 200 people Li Jing took away, our side lost nearly [-] people.

Most of them died in the charge while rescuing Cheng Zhijie, Lu Zhongming sighed.

"Let's go." Yu Chigong seemed to always know what Lu Zhongming was thinking, and urged him to turn the horse's head and gallop towards the lowlands outside the plain.

Shan Xiongxin was obviously also caught in a hard fight. This time Lu Zhongming didn't dare to attack rashly again. After all, the plains are open, and once they are counter-charged, the entire team might be damaged here.The cavalrymen got off their horses, wrapped cotton cloths on the hooves of their horses, passed through the woods, and rushed out of the plain without a sound.

"Kill!" Tang Jun rushed out from the side, Lu Zhongming shot the enemy Qianhu off the horse with an arrow, Yu Chigong drew the horse-slaying epee from behind, held it flat with both hands, Bai Yunju neighed vigorously, and the horse charged.

Immediately, blood burst out all the way along the way, Shan Xiongxin was startled, but seeing that it was Tang Jun, he hurriedly said: "Reinforcements are coming! Kill back—!"

The Wagang army's morale was immediately boosted, and they hid the kill again. Tang Jun pulled the horse hook rope to move around, two of them rode together, along the outer two wings, and the enemy soldiers on horseback were torn off by the force of galloping horses.

"Contestant No. [-] broke through!" Lu Zhongming said.

"There will be a period later, General Shan!" Yuchi Gongyuan said.

As soon as Shan Xiongxin got out of the siege, he immediately said, "I'll go with you!"

The yellow sand was billowing, there was muddy water everywhere after a heavy rain, the sun appeared from behind the clouds, Li Mi's troops had already been slaughtered to the point of blood flow, Shan Xiongxin and Yu Chigong's troops rushed to cover them.

This is the final contest, the two sides are head-to-head, there is no skill at all, Lu Zhongming shot arrows one after another, until the quiver was empty, he pulled his hands back, and in an instant, clusters of arrows turned around and flew towards the sky. into his quiver.

Yu Chigong held the horse-slaying epee in both hands, and almost cut a bloody path behind Lu Zhongming, like a sharp knife piercing the enemy's formation.

While the fight was in full swing, someone shouted from a distance: "Zhai Rang, come here—brothers, come back with me—!"

As soon as Zhai Rang arrived, the morale was boosted immediately, and the Wagang Army regrouped and charged towards the Sui Army like hungry wolves. After three attacks, the Sui Army finally gave up resistance and fled into Beimang Mountain.

Li Mi was covered in blood and fell on the muddy ground, gasping for breath.

Shan Xiongxin organized the team again and counted the number of people. When Li Mi sent troops, there were 2 people in the central army, but now there are only [-] left.

The first thing Zhai Rang did was to come to see Li Mi. The soldiers surrounded him tightly. Lu Zhongming pushed them away and came to Li Mi's side.

Lu Zhongming took his pulse for him, and replied after a while: "I'm exhausted, take him back, give him water, rub his body with ginger juice, otherwise he will easily cause a stroke, hurry up!"

Smoke billowed from Beiman Mountain, and Zhai Rang immediately carried Li Mi onto the horse and asked someone to take him back to the city.

Yuchi Gong stood, fighting hard but his arms were trembling, a gust of wind blew across the plain, Zhai Rang, covered in blood, took off his helmet, threw it on the ground, cupped his fists and said, "General Yuchi."

Yu Chigong didn't speak, and at that moment Zhai Rang bowed his knees and bowed to Yuchi Gong, saying in a deep voice, "You can't repay the kindness of saving your life. This battle made a big mistake. On behalf of all the brothers, Zhai thanked General Yuchi for his great virtue!"

Zhai Rang knelt down, and the soldiers knelt down one after another. Yuchi Gong couldn't see, but vaguely guessed what was going on, and hurriedly said: "Zhongming, quickly help the boss to get up."

Lu Zhongming hurriedly helped Zhai Rang, saying: "You can't stay here for a long time, go back first and then talk about it."

In the middle of the night, an unprecedented quarrel broke out in the Wagang Army. Zhai Rang accused everyone of attacking at night under such circumstances, and Li Mi was angry with Zhai Rang for responding.

"Where are the checkpoints set up along Mang Mountain?" Zhai Rang said angrily, "Wang Shichong's subordinates were allowed to bypass our defense line, enter the mountain, and set fire to ambush?!"

Li Mi said wearily: "Beimang Mountain stretches for hundreds of miles! How to fortify it! Quick battle is the best strategy..."

Another general stepped forward to distinguish, but was knocked down by Zhai Rang with a slap.

Zhai Rang said coldly: "Li Mi, if I wanted to compete with you for a while, it would be the lives of my brothers. If Yu Chigong hadn't led the army to rescue today, Wagang's foundation would have to be fully accounted for in this battle. inside!"

After Li Mi was defeated, he had to swallow his anger, Shan Xiongxin said again: "The master, please calm down."

Zhai Rang could hardly bear it anymore. After walking a few steps, he almost wanted to stab Li Mi with his sword. He said angrily, "Underestimate the enemy and be arrogant. There are no horse-repelling posts behind the camp. Li Mi, you have fought for many years, and the reason why arrogant soldiers must be defeated do not know either?!"

"Li Mi is willing to accept the punishment." Li Mi did not dare to argue anymore.

Yu Chigong sat at the side, silent, while Lu Zhongming bowed in front of him, hearing the noisy quarrel as if there was nothing in his ears, carefully removed the black cloth strips that covered Yuchigong's eyes, wrung out the cloth towel, and carefully wiped his eyes clean. plaster.

"Okay, try opening your eyes." Lu Zhongming whispered.

Yu Chigong opened his eyes, squinted for a while, not quite used to the light, recovered his eyesight after a while, looked at Lu Zhongming with a smile in his eyes.

"See?" Lu Zhongming asked with concern.

"I see." Yuchi respectfully said.

The hall was in chaos, Shan Xiongxin was arguing with Li Mi, but in Yu Chigong's eyes, it seemed that Lu Zhongming was the only one in this world.Looking at each other in silence, Yu Chigong's eyes fell on Lu Zhongming's lips.

There seemed to be an invisible small world around the two of them.

Lu Zhongming's face was blushing, but Yu Chigong took his hand, turned his head and said: "Generals, listen to me first."

As soon as the words came out, the hall finally fell silent, and everyone looked at Yu Chigong.

Yu Chigong said: "In order to save the four generals, a total of 110 or eight lives were sacrificed under my command, all of them were men who followed me here to serve Wagang."

Yu Chigong's voice was strong, and he said again: "I think the brothers who died in the battle must not want to see the current scene. Why don't you put these words aside first, and plan carefully, how to retreat Wang Shichong's army at the foot of Beiman Mountain how?"

Everyone felt pale, Yu Chigong said again: "Let me go first." After speaking, he left hand in hand with Lu Zhongming.
