Chapter 2472 Self-injection
Pang Jun scolded for a while and asked Wang Ping to take his seat.
When he learned that He Ping had recovered his ancestor's surname, Pang Jun's cheek twitched, then laughed loudly and congratulated Wang Ping.
"Zi Jun will meet noble people, and it is a joy to congratulate you." Pang Jun raised his wine glass. "With this cup, I wish Zi Jun will go straight up, and will be a thousand miles a day and a thousand miles a day. In the future, I will be honored as a marquis and generals, and I will be proud of my ancestors. I will also benefit from some wealth."
Wang Ping was relieved and a rare smile appeared on his face. Seeing the surprise in Pang Jun's eyes, he immediately woke up, quickly lowered his smile, and raised his glass to return. He reflected on himself and found that he seemed to have smiled a lot in the past few days.
Pang Jun and Wang Ping agreed that he would send someone back to Dangqu to report the news, asking Cao Hong to send the main force to fight, and at the same time contact the Dangqu clan, thinking of a complete solution, not only to seize this last opportunity, but not to cause Cao Cao's revenge and lead to innocent casualties.
Wang Ping agreed, refused Pang Jun's attempt to stay, and rushed back to Bameng Mountain overnight to repay Xu Huang.
Xu Huang carefully asked about Wang Ping and Pang Jun's meeting, and finally frowned. "Zi Jun, will Pang Jun go as promised?"
Wang Ping's eyes flashed slightly. He had no doubts at first, but after Xu Huang said this, he thought about it carefully and was not sure. He knew that he had no knowledge and no eloquence, and had no friendship with Pang Jun before. Today, he went to see Pang Jun as an envoy of the Wu army. Pang Jun seemed too enthusiastic and too easy to convince.
"The general is worried that Pang Jun will be cheating?"
Xu Huang took two steps back and forth. "Zijun, let's put ourselves in our shoes. If you are Pang Jun, do you believe that Bameng Mountain has the elite of my Great Wu? Even if there are, how many? What kind of military equipment is there, how many military rations can you last? You have three thousand divisions, should you directly repay Cao Hong, ask for reinforcements, or test the truth and make a decision?"
Wang Ping's face gradually changed. He knew that he might have been fooled, and Pang Jun did not really believe him, at least he did not completely believe him.
The reason is very simple. The information he provided can only prove one thing: there is Wu Jun in Bameng Mountain, that's all. As for how many people there were, Pang Jun didn't ask at all. Maybe he felt that he wouldn't say it, so he simply didn't ask. Maybe he thought that Bameng Mountain was so big that it couldn't hide many people.
If it were the latter, Pang Jun was determined to achieve fame and fortune, he didn't know what kind of stupid things he would do.
"General, I..."
"It is normal for Pang Jun to be suspicious by his army." Xu Huang waved his hand and signaled that Wang Ping didn't have to think too much.
He did not say something directly, so as not to hurt Wang Ping's self-esteem. Pang Jun is a large family of Dangqu, but Wang Ping is a single poor family and cannot even guarantee his survival. He can only change his surname and rely on his mother's family. He has never studied, and he is like Bai Ding. These two people should have no relationship or trust. Without conclusive evidence, how could Wang Ping believe whatever he said?
The only explanation is that Pang Jun doesn't want to hear what Wang Ping said at all. He has his own ideas. At least, he will lead his troops to Bameng Mountain to see if the opponent is the Wu army and how many people there are, and then make a decision. If there are very few Wu army and he is confident enough, he will win the battle and make a great contribution. If there are many Wu army and he cannot defeat it, he will do his best to ask Cao Hong and even Cao Cao for help.
This is the most reasonable way to deal with it.
Xu Huang didn't say it, but Wang Ping understood it, and his original joy suddenly turned into shame. He was deceived by Pang Jun and even humiliated by Pang Jun.
"General, what should we do?"
"Pang Jun told you that he will stop moving forward and send someone back to Dangqu for help. If he keeps his promise, he will not continue moving forward tomorrow. If he intends to bully you, he will probably go on a hurry at night and attack me unprepared." Xu Huang ordered someone to get the map and asked Wang Ping: "In your opinion, if Pang Jun sends someone to attack, where may he be in the morning?"
Wang Ping pointed out two locations on the map without thinking. The distance of sixty or seventy miles, combined with the marching speed of Pang Jun's subordinates, there are not many places to choose. In fact, if Pang Jun is brave enough to march overnight, he might appear in Bameng Mountain in the second half of the night.
When Wang Ping thought of the early morning of tomorrow, when they were sleeping soundly, Pang Jun suddenly appeared in front of him, and even cut off their heads and asked Cao Cao for credit. Wang Ping was furious and broke out in a cold sweat.
Xu Huang thought about it and finally made a decision. He sent 500 people out of the camp. Sanyuntai set up an ambush at Panei Ma Mountain, five miles north of Bameng Mountain. The canal water comes from the north, and the river valleys on both sides are relatively flat. At this point, it shrinks one line. The east bank is Tieniupo, which is close to the canal water, and cannot walk. He can only pass by the valley entrance between Sanyuntai and Panei Ma Mountain on the west bank, which is less than a hundred steps away.
This is a great place to ambush.
Wang Ping was very grateful to Xu Huang's arrangement. The ambush near Bameng Mountain was just prepared for any incidents. If Pang Jun had not lie to him, the ambush would naturally be impossible to start. But if Pang Jun lied to him, then he would be damned and would be unreproached.
Wang Ping took the initiative to ask for the battle and made a suggestion. Many of the civilians who stayed to help were strong and could also participate in the battle. There were many Dangqu Mountains and few lands, and the Han and the barbarians lived in mixed habits. These people were all poor people and were bullied by the government and the big clans in normal times. If they were given a chance to avenge, they would definitely not object.
Xu Huang remembered the scene of the ambush that day, agreed to Wang Ping's request, and ordered Wang Ping to command these people. At the beginning of the battle, the Wu army was the main force to break through the enemy's defense line, and then the people stepped forward to expand the results of the battle.
Wang Ping was in a good mood and went to the people to select strong people. As expected, the people who stayed wanted to take revenge, and almost fought in order to fight. Wang Ping carefully selected and finally selected more than 300 people, and asked Xu Huang to come and review it.
Among the more than 300 people, Xu Huang saw dozens of women, including the Ba Nu who had bit off a piece of flesh from his opponent and swallowed it raw. Seeing Xu Huang looking over, he looked puzzled. The woman glared at her eyes, clenched her fists, and glared at Xu Huang.
"Rareless!" Wang Ping rushed forward and shook his hand and made a loud slap in the face. "Since he was going to go to war, he was a soldier. How could he be rude to the general!"
The woman turned her head and stared at Wang Ping, opened her mouth wide, revealing a mouthful of white teeth, and letting out a beastly roar. Wang Ping shivered, then became furious, and reached out to draw his sword.
Xu Huang stopped him and said with a smile: "Ban Feng Fuhu, he is worthy of being a famous elite in the world, even women are so brave. You should become a soldier of my Great Wu. If you can make a contribution in this battle, I recommend you to go to Zuo Dugu's command to obey the orders."
The woman still didn't speak, but her eyes lit up when she heard Zuo Dupu.
Xu Huang ordered people to get the seized weapons and armor, and armed the civilians. He also ordered people to give them extra meals, rest early, and prepare for battle.
In the middle of the night, Xu Huang personally took five hundred elite soldiers and three hundred civilians, and with dry food for a day, left the main peak of Bameng Mountain, entered the area of Sanyuntai and Pianmashan, and lurked on the spot to rest.
——
Pang Jun tied his mount, looked at Bameng Mountain in the distance, and sighed softly.
A little bit of white fish was revealed over the distant mountains, but Bameng Mountain was still in the night, and only the top of the mountain was vaguely visible.
Shortly after Wang Ping left, he ordered the camp to be pulled out and went on a hurry overnight. The time was just right. The Wu army should have slept soundly, and killed them at this moment, just caught them off guard. After the battle, they could have breakfast in Bameng Mountain.
Thinking of the scene where Wang Ping, who was captured, was watching from the side when he was having breakfast, Pang Jun couldn't help but laugh. An illiterate man, relying on the momentum of the Wu people, dared to speak in front of me. You don't think about it. Even if you surrender, I am different from you. You can only follow Xu Huangan to serve him, but we can bargain with Huang Zhong. In the future, Xu Huang will bow and bow to me when he sees me. Be polite.
How can you, a poor man, understand the affairs of aristocratic families?
"Send the order!" Pang Jun waved his hand and called his personal guards, raised the golden wire horse whip in his hand, and pointed it forward. "Those who kill the first-level Wu army will be rewarded with a hundred coins, a cow head, and a ten mu of fields. Those who capture Xu Huang will be rewarded with a ten thousand coins, a ten cow head, and a hundred mu of high-quality paddy fields. I will only leave half of all the seized, and the other half will be all."
After the order was passed, the tiring part was excited after rushing all night. Money was not attractive, but the Niuhetian was too attractive, especially the fields. With a hundred acres of high-quality paddy fields, from then on, you can not only have no worries about food and clothing, but also have a very comfortable life.
What's more, there are high-quality goods shipped from Chengdu.
The marching speed suddenly accelerated and the footsteps became louder. Night birds on the mountains on the roadside were awakened and flew into the sky one after another, making horrifying chirping.
The battle was about to happen, and at this time, the opponent's scout was too late to find out, and rushed over as quickly as possible, which was victory.
Pang Jun stepped forward, and several knights of the personal guards followed closely, and the personal guard camp took big steps and followed closely behind.
Seeing Pang Jun's bravery, the members were full of energy and rushed forward. Soon, they came to the Sanyun Tower. The originally spacious river beach disappeared, leaving only the narrow valley between the two ridges. They didn't think much about it, panting and running forward.
This is a section of uphill, which has been lifted more than ten feet in more than a hundred steps. If you walk slowly, it may not matter. You will run all the way and walk for another night. Even though these Pang family members are strong and have a little sore legs when they climb to the top of the slope, they are panting like a cow, and they just want to stop and rest for a while.
But they cannot stop, not only cannot stop, but they also have to continue running forward and run to Bameng Mountain.
Just as Pang Jun rode his horse to the highest point and looked back, a fierce sound of war drums suddenly came to his back. Then, a rain of arrows jumped up from the rocks on the top of the slope, and roared down from the woods, pounced on the bell family that was climbing the hill.
The moment he heard the sound of war drums, Pang Jun's mind went blank, his whole body was cold, and the golden whip in his hand fell to the ground.
Several feather arrows shot Pang Jun almost at the same time. The powerful impact force pushed Pang Jun down from the horse's back and rolled down the hillside. Several of his personal guards were shot down, and they were in chaos and had no time to react.
Under the dense rain of arrows on both sides, Pang family members didn't even have time to lift the wooden shield in their hands, and were shot down. Countless people fell to the ground, wailing and wailing. Thrilling and painful screams echoed between the mountains, echoing the frightening birds in the air.
Under the cover of arrow rain, the Wu army, with fifty people as a team, led by their respective team leaders and the trench leader, rushed down from the hillside, entered the Pang family's curved formation, cut the team into more than a dozen sections, and slashed and killed.
Almost in an instant, the Pang family's army collapsed and became in a mess. Some resisted desperately, while some turned around and fled. In a panic, many people climbed up the mountains on both sides, and were hit by the soldiers rushing down from the mountain.
Seeing the Wu army descending like a tiger, killing the Pang family's troops to collapse, Wang Ping sighed that the Wu army was brave and seized the opportunity in time, led the civilians to attack, and rushed to the front with his own swords.
He ran down the mountain, waved his sword, and was about to cut at the Pang family that looked like a lieutenant. He rushed past him with a fierce figure like a tigress and stabbed the lieutenant in the stomach with a strange cry, pushing him out a few steps, waved his hand to draw his sword, and threw out a strip of blood beads, sprinkling Wang Ping's face.
Wang Ping knew who it was without having to look at it. He secretly called bad luck. He stretched out his hand and slashed his face, and cut off the head of the commander with a knife.
Three hundred people rushed into the formation. Unlike the Wu army, they shouted and jumped one by one, not like fighting or juggling. The Wu army disagreed and even despised them. The Pang family, who were also Dangqu people, was greatly frightened. When they saw this situation, they knew that they had met the barbarians in the mountains and their morale was completely collapsed.
According to Pang Jun's previous statement, the Wu army should have it, but the number is definitely not large. Now that there are barbarians in the mountains, there are no doubt that there are many people. I heard that the barbarians in the mountains are sucking people, and they don't want to be eaten. They don't want anything else, they just want to escape now.
In less than half an hour, the battle ended. Nearly a thousand people were injured in the Three Thousand Tribes. Pang Jun, who was commanding the troops, was shot and killed in the last battle. The remaining defeated soldiers were left uncontrolled and fled back to Dangqu. Because they came in a hurry and were defeated in a hurry, they were still in shock. After returning to Dangqu City, there were many contradictions in the statements, and no one knew what the real situation was.
Cao Hong and Xin Ping heard countless statements, including legends that were almost mythical. Some people swear that the Wu army all flew down from the mountain, each of them like the White Tiger God, mouthful of each one, and didn't even hit him. Some people said that they saw Xu Huang with their own eyes. Xu Huang used a big axe, and swept over with an axe. Seven or eight people were cut off in half. The people who fell to the ground would not die for a while. The lower body without a head ran desperately, and the upper body without legs shouted desperately, but the legs had no ears and could not hear them, and they only ran on their own.
Rumors were like the wind, and in just one day, the entire Dangqu spread. For a moment, people were panicked, just like the end of the world.
Cao Hong, Xin Ping did not dare to neglect his orders to be martial law throughout the city and detained the defeated soldiers. At the same time, he summoned all ethnic groups to discuss matters and prepare for another battle.
After repeated discussions, they felt that the situation was serious and could no longer be concealed, so they had to send someone to inform Cao Cao.
