Chapter 486: Fighting Against Each Other
In a strategic location, Qin Sheng led his men to ambush.
When Ma Jin led the team past, they did not move, they were all his own people.
After a while, the scout who had been lying on the ground with good hearing suddenly brightened up, "Here it comes, boss, I can vaguely hear the sound and feel the shaking of the earth."
At this time, the Xianbei scout was also reporting the news to Tuoba Jin, "Second Prince, we have found the 300-man Pingzhou team, just in front, less than two miles away from us."
Tuoba Jin was excited when he heard this, "Let's catch up immediately!"
He led 500 Xianbei warriors and must kill the other side by surprise!
The 500 strong men advanced at full speed, and the movement at night was very loud. In Tuoba Jin's field of vision, the Pingzhou Silver Transport Team soon appeared.
I saw that the other side had stopped, and the whole team was on the defensive. He could even see their frightened expressions.
He smiled grimly, "Xianbei warriors, charge for me!"
The Xianbei soldiers obeyed the order, holding weapons and screaming.
The one who rushed in the front soon encountered an accident.
"Oops, we're ambushed!"
"Second Prince, there's an ambush!"
"Brothers, kill them!"
Taking advantage of the chaos, Qin Sheng led his men to rush out from both sides of the road.
"Kill! Military merit, here I come!"
At this time, Ma Jin also rushed over with his men, and he said anxiously, "Sixth Master, leave some for us!" Five hundred Xianbei soldiers, it's not too much for them to take one hundred out of three hundred people, right?
Tuoba Jin was protected by his personal soldiers, and his face was livid as he watched this scene.
The personal soldiers asked anxiously, "Second Prince, do you want to retreat first?"
The other side obviously has more people than them. The two waves of people together must be seven or eight hundred people, right? If the other side is other Dali soldiers, they are not afraid of five hundred against seven or eight hundred. But it is obvious that the individual strength of the Pingzhou soldiers is no worse than that of their Xianbei warriors. Not to mention that they are now ambushed by others!
While Tuoba Jin was fighting hard, his mind was also turning at a high speed. In this situation, they are likely to return empty-handed.
Thinking of Tuoba Lian who was captured by Pingzhou twice, Tuoba Jin decisively decided to retreat!
It just so happened that they now have enemies on the left, right and front, and the way back is temporarily safe.
"Cover the second prince to retreat!"
Realizing that they were going to run, Chen Jinlong and others immediately led people to fill the gap.
It was difficult for the five hundred Xianbei soldiers to defeat the two teams led by Qin Sheng and Ma Jin, but it was still possible to cover Tuoba Jin's retreat.
Under the Xianbei soldiers' reckless and reckless fighting style, they really opened a bloody road.
At this time, Qin Sheng happened to be standing under a big tree, slightly away from the battle circle. At this time, he held a bow, took out an arrow from the quiver behind him, put it on, and aimed.
When Tuoba Jin turned his horse's head, a flaw appeared beside him.
Lu Dayou seized the opportunity and rushed forward to slash, but unfortunately the slash was blocked by Tuoba Jin's personal soldiers.
"Second Prince, go!" Go back to Pinggang, and you will be safe!
Tuoba Jin knew that this was a critical moment and it was not the time to show off. He immediately grabbed the reins and squeezed the horse's belly to rush out.
At this moment, the arrow in Qin Sheng's hand shot out quickly, and the sharp special arrowhead shone coldly in the cold moonlight.
Tuoba Jin seemed to have sensed something, turned his head and looked back, his pupils widened unconsciously.
Tuoba Jin was shot in the chest and was about to fall down.
Qin Sheng regretted that Tuoba Jin's move caused the arrow to deviate an inch. It can only be said that Tuoba Jin was lucky.
The Xianbei archer Aliannu also reacted, and the Pingzhou archer was also there!
Qin Sheng felt sorry, but for Tuoba Jin, the arrow that shot at him and penetrated his chest was fatal even if it missed his heart by an inch.
At the moment he fell, Tuoba Jin inexplicably thought of the Han Chinese saying - the mantis stalks the cicada, while the oriole waits behind.
When Tuoba Jin fell, the deputy general Hu Yanji didn't care about the big knife that was slashing at him. After a feint, he rode over on horseback, hugged the fallen Tuoba Jin, put him behind him, and rushed forward!
At this time, Aliannu rode on horseback to catch up, while shooting at the pursuers behind Hu Yanji with a bow and arrow to cover their retreat.
Chen Jinlong and others wanted to chase again, but Qin Sheng ordered loudly, "Forget it, don't chase the desperate enemy." It's not easy to train his soldiers, and he treasures them. .
He ran away! Chen Jinlong and others looked regretful. Tuoba Second Prince, if he was caught, it would be a great military achievement.
After cleaning up the battlefield, Qin Sheng told them, "Everyone performed very well tonight. You left 400 of the 500 Xianbei soldiers." Tuoba Jin escaped, and nearly 100 others escaped.
"It's gone!"
After a brutal night battle, everyone was tired and excited.
Late at night, Pinggang, Xianbei temporary military tent
"Prince, eldest prince, it's bad. The 500 soldiers who went to rob and kill the Pingzhou silver transport team were ambushed, and the second prince was seriously injured!"
"What?" Tuoba Yu and Tuoba Xun got up from the couch in shock. They were all lying down with their clothes on and were not asleep.
"Quick, let the shaman take a look at him."
After the shaman looked at it, he said, "The second prince was seriously injured and must be sent to Yanmen for treatment."
"Then send troops to escort him!"
Tuoba Yu, Tuoba Xun and others were in a very sad mood. They planned to attack Pingzhou, but they didn't expect to capsize in the gutter.
Tuoba Yu frowned, "What should we do next?" Against Pingzhou, they, the Xianbei, did not make any contribution.
Tuoba Xun rubbed his eyebrows and said, "Let's proceed as planned."
After daybreak, there were movements in the three major military camps.
At this time, a young general sent by Qin Yan and Qin Zhao returned, with dew on his trouser legs. He told everyone that they had successfully taken over the important defense of the counties in Youzhou.
Tuoba Yu asked with a fake smile, "Lord Lu, can you let him go?"
Lv Desheng's face was flushed, "Of course you can."
Both sides smiled on their faces, cursing in their hearts, wishing to cut each other into pieces.
General Sun on the side only felt that the atmosphere was very strange, and didn't know that Xianbei and Pingzhou had fought behind their backs last night.
There was movement in the Xianbei army tent at night, but it was not big.
"Come on, let Tuoba Seventh Prince down." Lu Desheng ordered.
He didn't intend to break the contract. One Tuoba Lian is not enough to be afraid of. This child is a bit cruel, but he is a golden baby. You can get a lot of benefits if you catch him once.
Furthermore, they will have to compete with the Song Dynasty in the future, and may need to deal with various forces and talents, and there will be many opportunities to use his old Lu Pingzhou's name.
Their Han culture emphasizes loyalty, filial piety, courtesy, righteousness, and trustworthiness.
A good reputation for being trustworthy is still very important, otherwise who will play with them in the future? There is a glaring example of not keeping promises in front of us, the Xianbei royal court, such a big force, actually said that nothing works.
If Lu Songli was here, she would also agree with her father's approach.
As a force, you can't be too ugly. In fact, it doesn't matter if it's ugly, at least you have to pull a fig leaf, right? The Xianbei barbarians are too unrefined.
They will have many opportunities to write bad checks in Pingzhou in the future, and their reputation cannot be ruined.
"Then, Lord Lu, please let him go."
Before letting him go, Lu Desheng straightened his clothes, "Seventh Prince Tuoba, be smarter in the future, don't get caught by us again."
Tuoba Lian: ...
"Go back." Lu Desheng gently pushed him.
Tuoba Lian's hands were tied, but his legs were free. Following Lu Desheng's force, he ran towards his uncle.
After Tuoba Lian was safe, Tuoba Xun moved.
When he moved, the Xianbei army also moved.
Qin Heng also moved, "Pingzhou Archery Camp, prepare to fight!"
