Chapter 1107 Ishigatsu's Provocation
Chapter 1107 Ishigatsu's Provocation
Jiang Dalang stared intently at the deep cave entrance ahead, then reached out and took the paper and pen that Xue Feng handed him... Xue Feng and a group of his men had been given to Jiang Dalang by Xue Dongjia and had become Jiang Dalang's confidants.
After this battle in the mountains, they will all transform from household servants and martial arts instructors into true warriors.
As soon as Jiang Dalang took the paper and pen, one of Xue Feng's men stepped forward, turned his back to Jiang Dalang, and bowed slightly.
Using his subordinate's back as a desk, Jiang Dalang quickly wrote a military report and handed it to Xue Feng: "Personally deliver this to the old stronghold and give it to Deputy General Lang."
"Yes!" Xue Feng took the report and led half of his men back to the old camp to present it to Deputy General Lang.
On the tenth day of the second lunar month, Deputy General Lang received more than a dozen such military reports.
Jiang Dalang alone received four reports... The first military report informed Deputy General Lang of the discovery of a tunnel in the mountains and the capture of a exhausted spy.
The second military report began with spies investigating the tunnels... but the tunnels were very long and contained traps and mechanisms.
The third military report proposed using enemy tunnels to lure and kill them... The tunnels are too long, there are too many traps and mechanisms, and there is more than one tunnel. Time is too tight now, so it is impossible to explore and fill in the tunnels as before.
Instead of using it, we can use it to lure and kill the enemy!
The fourth military report was about the discovery of a new tunnel.
The new second chieftain and the fourth young chieftain also discovered three tunnels with the help of the wolf pack.
Looking at the military report, Deputy General Lang, wanting to dig up Dongmo's ancestral graves, immediately adopted Jiang Dalang's suggestion: "Pass down the order, there's no need to spend any more time surveying the tunnels. Just follow Commander Jiang's suggestion and set up a trap three miles from our entrance. When the enemy uses the tunnels to infiltrate our rear, we'll capture and kill them! Let the enemy die in the tunnels they dug themselves!"
"Yes!" The guards immediately split into several groups to relay military orders to the various Wei armies in the mountains.
Qu Tongzhi also received the military order, but Deputy General Lang was very polite to him and only suggested that he do so.
Qu Tongzhi was extremely unhappy and resentful, unwilling to obey Lang Qianhu's orders, but he wasn't stupid enough to send his own soldiers into a spy trap.
Finally, he ordered his troops, including his trusted commanders Zhao and Qu, to carry out the military orders of Deputy General Lang.
Qu Tongzhi further instructed: "After the letter is delivered, tell them to be smart and not to be greedy for credit, lest they get themselves killed in the tunnel!"
"Yes!" the scouts replied, took the letter, and headed off in different directions to the tunnels where Commander Zhao and Commander Qu were located.
However, it was still a step too late.
Commander Su, under Commander Qu's command, had been completely wiped out in the tunnel trap.
Qu Qianhu was sending men to rescue them, but they were stopped by the messenger.
Qu Qianhu had no choice but to read the letter first.
He was a relative of Qu Tongzhi, and Qu Tongzhi wrote to him quite bluntly... If any soldiers were trapped in a pit, just ask for more compensation for them, and don't let other soldiers be harmed.
This means he shouldn't send troops to rescue them.
Qu Qianhu was very reluctant to part with him; Commander Su was his confidant and an elite soldier.
Qu Tongzhi is right.
"Proceed according to Lieutenant General Lang's latest military orders!"
At a single command, everyone had no choice but to halt the rescue... The tunnels were deep and riddled with traps; each batch of them entering would only die.
The scout who came to deliver the message was relieved to see that Commander Qu did not insist on going to rescue the people, and went back to report.
When Qu Tongzhi learned of this, he breathed a sigh of relief... Qu Qianhu was a blood relative of his, and he had worked hard to help him rise to power. If he had fallen into the hands of spies in their tunnel, he would have been furious!
Once the military orders were clear, the Wei troops who discovered the tunnels began setting traps at the tunnel entrances in the mountains to capture and kill the Eastern Desert army that would attempt to use these tunnels to attack the Great Wei.
But Jiang Dalang was still leading the mountain people, Wei soldiers, and wolf packs to search for Shi Junnu. However, the mountains were too vast, and Shi Junnu and his men were familiar with the terrain, so they successfully evaded the pursuit within the mountains.
However, Shi Junnu and his group also encountered an ambush by Wei troops who had been lying in wait in the area from Tianmang Prefecture to the Eastern Desert.
"Infiltrate, launch a night raid, and kill them all!" Shi Junnu, filled with resentment for losing everything in the mountains, issued this order after discovering that Wei troops were lying in ambush ahead.
"Yes." His trusted aide, Amoto, responded and went to give the order himself.
The elite troops of the Eastern Desert led by Shi Junnu immediately hid in the snow and lay in ambush... The Eastern Desert was a truly bitterly cold place. They lived in ice houses and ate cold food, so hiding in the snow for a day was commonplace for them.
As for the Wei army lying in ambush on the other side, they were under the command of General Chi of Tianmang Prefecture.
That's right, Shi Junnu and his group have already escaped to the mountains within the territory of Tianmang Prefecture. Once they cross these mountains, they will be able to join up with the Eastern Desert army.
With the rendezvous imminent, Shi Junnu and his men resorted to extreme ruthlessness, directly employing poison to incapacitate over two hundred people, including Commander Ke and Commander Qu, who were attempting to intercept them.
Ding, ding ding!
Some soldiers, realizing there was medicine in the air and finding it difficult to breathe, mustered their last strength to tap their armor with the hilts of their swords as a warning to those behind them.
Upon hearing the commotion, Commander Ke and Commander Qu immediately sensed something was wrong. They ordered the messengers to beat the war drums and shout, "Retreat! Retreat! The sound is wrong. It's the sound of many people banging on their armor. The soldiers blocking our way ahead must have been attacked, otherwise they would have directly notified us by beating the drums and gongs!"
The shout came at just the right time. All the soldiers who wanted to rush to the front to see what was going on stopped and turned to run towards Commander Ke and his men.
Boom boom boom!
"Don't advance! Retreat! Retreat! Get out of firing range before forming ranks to meet the enemy!" the messengers shouted repeatedly.
Upon hearing this, the soldiers quickly retreated.
However, no arrows came, nor did any enemies attack.
Seeing this, Commander Ke and Commander Qu's faces grew even darker. They shouted, "Fire arrows in the direction of the soldiers ahead to force the enemy to show themselves!"
The medic shouted, "Beware of poison! The soldiers at the front have probably been drugged by the enemy!"
Upon hearing this, the remaining 160 soldiers became even more vigilant and covered their mouths and noses with another layer of cloth.
Seeing this, Shi Junnu became even angrier and immediately ordered: "Fifty men stay behind to protect the fire. The rest of you, charge out! I want to use these Wei soldiers as rations!"
"Yes!" Amoto, Yetuo, and the others immediately took action, using the white snow as cover, crawling forward in the snow towards Ke Baihu and his men.
Once within range of the large arrow.
Whoosh whoosh!
A giant arrow shot out.
"Shieldbearers, block the arrows!" Commander Ke shouted.
Dangdang Dangdang!
The shield bearers at the front formed a line to block the large arrows.
However, the arrows were tied with poison pouches. Upon impact, the poison pouches shattered, and the shield bearers in front were poisoned and fell unconscious.
"Kill this batch of military rations!" Amoto and the others shouted, their eyes bloodshot, smacking their lips as if savoring the deliciousness of the rations.
They were trained using the method of killing assassins, and killing people like Commander Ke, who hadn't fought a major battle in years, was like slaughtering pigs.
It really is like slaughtering a pig.
After charging up to a Wei soldier, they slashed his head off with a single stroke, then cut the threads binding his armor. After removing the soldier's armor, they plunged their curved blades directly into his heart, the blades slicing off his chest.
Not far away, Commander Ke and his men watched with bloodshot eyes; the soldiers around them charged toward Amoto and his men in fury: "Kill! Kill these beasts! Avenge Xiao Liang!"
Ah, Amoto laughed when he saw this, and even licked the blood off his scimitar with his mouth, continuing to provoke the Wei army in this way.
