The beginning of the Three Kingdoms Cheng Yuanzhi

Chapter 292

The more Cheng Yuanzhi heard it, the more startled he became. Looking around, he saw that the barbarian crowd was furious, as if they would not give up until he was killed. He thought to himself:

"Okay, this is great, there are no people inside and out."

Thinking so, he cast his eyes on Ah Hu.

Ah Hu spread his hands together, as if saying "Brother-in-law, don't look at me, I have nothing to do with you".

Cheng Yuanzhi looked at the old patriarch again, but saw that the old patriarch shook his head and took a step back.

Ah Yue panicked when she saw this, she quickly stood in front of her, stretched out her arms to protect Cheng Yuanzhi behind her back, and said anxiously to everyone: "Don't make noise, everyone, listen to me..."

But no one listened to her.

Everyone raised their hands high again and again, repeating: "Let him go, let him go..."

At the critical moment, a crooked figure stood up and coughed heavily.

Although this figure is hunched, in Cheng Yuanzhi's heart at this moment, it is extremely stalwart and tall.

Seeing this person, the noisy scene quickly quieted down.

This man is Ah Yue's father, the only miracle doctor in the village.

For decades, with his superb medical skills, he has protected the safety of the barbarians with a radius of dozens of miles.

He also knows a thing or two about treating people, animals, sickness and wounded, and even dying.

Such a person has high morals and high expectations, which cannot be measured by specific weight.

Ah Yue's father glanced at Cheng Yuanzhi indifferently, looked around the crowd and said, "Although he is my son-in-law, but I will not help my relatives, he should indeed be kicked out of the cottage!"

Everyone nodded.

The venerable old man is still very fair, which is believable.

"but……"

The old man's voice changed: "Not now, but after he helps us solve tonight's crisis, and then drive him out of the stronghold. Now that the enemy is at hand, we should temporarily put aside our prejudices and work together to fight against the enemy!"

"People, compared to my son-in-law's Han identity, the bandits are worse and more hateful. They robbed our property and destroyed our fortress. We are sworn in with them and will fight to the death. Do you think that's right?"

Some well-founded words immediately brought the topic and hatred back to General Zhu's troops.

Everyone was stunned.

That's right, when the enemy is at hand, those officers and soldiers should be dealt with first.

I don’t know who was the first to respond, “Dad, we listen to you!”

The rest all agreed: "Father, just tell me what to do!"

Ah Yue's father nodded slightly, turned around, pulled Cheng Yuanzhi out from behind Ah Yue, and said in a deep voice: "If you want to retreat from the enemy, of course my son-in-law can do it. He turned out to be a victorious general. expert!"

Everyone looked at me and I looked at you, with hesitant attitudes, and they didn't quite believe that Cheng Yuanzhi, who didn't show his mountains and dews, would be a perpetual victorious general and would have any good strategies to defeat the enemy.

Facing everyone's distrust, Cheng Yuanzhi didn't care at all, looked around everyone, and said in a deep voice:
"Folks, the thieves will come again tonight. We should strengthen our defenses, set up traps, let them come and go, and solve them once and for all, so as not to be afraid all day long and be bullied by them again!"

Hearing this, a young man behind Ah Hu shouted loudly: "They will come when you say they will come? How can we trust you?"

It was still early in the sky, Cheng Yuanzhi said with a smile: "It's simple, you can find out if you look west and south, if I'm not wrong, the enemy must be hiding in a hidden place within ten miles. , and wait for the dark."

Ahu took over the conversation: "We have lived in this mountain forest for generations and are very familiar with the terrain. Within a radius of ten miles, there are only three places where a large group of people can hide. Everyone, please follow me to check it out and make a plan."

After speaking, he ordered five people, including him, a total of six, in groups of two and two, and ran quickly in three directions.

Not long after, the three groups turned around one after another. Two groups of them looked relaxed and seemed to have found nothing unusual. Only Ahu and the young man in the same group looked particularly solemn.

You can tell at a glance that something is going on, something big!

Seeing this, everyone's heart skipped a beat.

The young man's tone was a little flustered: "Sure enough, the bandits didn't leave. They are now in Erdaowa, killing chickens and goats, and feasting on everything."

Everyone involuntarily looked at Cheng Yuanzhi, implicitly regarding him as their backbone.

They have realized who is the real savior.

Cheng Yuanzhi stood up without hesitation, cleared his throat, pointed to a narrow valley at the foot of the mountain and said: "Although there are many enemy troops, they are not difficult to destroy. Everyone immediately prepare a large number of bows and arrows, dry firewood, and divide the dry firewood into three parts." Some of them are scattered in the valley, some are stationed at the exit, and some are above the entrance of the other valley. In addition, many pits are dug and animal traps are placed at the exit. Tonight, it will definitely come and go!"

Seeing that Cheng Yuanzhi was strategizing and doing the right thing, everyone was infected by his self-confidence and made up their minds.

Ah Hu answered "Yes" loudly, and went down first to make arrangements, and everyone copied him one after another, and followed him.

The sky gradually darkened.

At about the next hour, a group of soldiers arrived as expected, and walked along the valley to the village in the dark.

In order not to startle the enemy, they did not light the torches.

While the team was marching, suddenly a person yelled loudly and fell to the ground without making a sound.

The surrounding soldiers took a closer look and saw a bow and arrow passing through his throat. They were shocked and shouted: "General, there is an ambush!"

Before the words fell, a shower of arrows fell, and dozens of people entered the gate of hell in a daze.

All the sergeants suddenly became chaotic.

General Zhu shouted repeatedly: "Hold on, don't panic, light the torches!"

When the torch was lighted, General Zhu's expression changed, and he was shocked.

I saw firewood piled up at the mouth of the valley ahead, and at the same time, countless torches lit up on the hillside and were thrown down like meteors falling to the ground.

In just a split second, Taniguchi burst into flames, and there was no way forward.

At the same time, the fire quickly spread into the valley.

General Zhu was terrified, and hurriedly led the crowd back.

Before he could take a few steps, a big fire ignited behind him, and countless bundles of firewood fell from the sky, blocking most of the back road.

In an instant, the valley was as bright as day, and the heat was like a furnace. The soldiers who were closer to the fire had already been covered by thick smoke and heat.

General Zhu drew out his long sword and shouted loudly: "Leave 20 people to stop the fire from spreading, and the rest follow me to rush out of the sea of ​​flames and fight for life!"

Immediately, twenty sergeants responded loudly and stayed behind.His legs trembled wildly, and he waved the long spear indiscriminately, hoping to stop the sea of ​​flames that continued to spread.

It was midsummer, the weather was dry, and a lot of dry firewood was placed in the narrow valley. The fire was raging. How could twenty soldiers stop it?
In the blink of an eye, twenty soldiers fell down, then rolled up in the sea of ​​flames, and soon became silent.

General Zhu ran about ten zhang, he was about to rush out of the sea of ​​flames, he looked back and saw half of the soldiers were left, he felt relieved immediately, and rushed out without stopping.

Suddenly, a dense rain of arrows came, and dozens of people fell into the sea of ​​flames.

General Zhu was caught off guard for a moment, and was shot by two arrows in the chest and back.

Fortunately, his armor was excellent, and the bow and arrow did not penetrate too deep into the flesh.

It's a long story, but in fact, only half a stick of incense had passed since Zhu's army was attacked, and there were only a hundred and ten of the five hundred sergeants, and the number was still decreasing rapidly.

In the canyon, the fire was hot, the smoke was billowing, and the horrific screams came and went, which made people's faces change.

Faced with such a desperate situation, General Zhu's desire to survive greatly increased, and he instantly activated all the potential in his body. He waved his sword with all his strength to divert the sea of ​​​​fire, and galloped out.

After running for about thirty feet, he finally got out of the sea of ​​flames. General Zhu quickly used a move of "rolling on the donkey" to extinguish all the sparks on his body.Regardless of the unbearable pain all over his body, he stood up and looked back.

There are only a few people behind.

In other words, only a dozen people rushed out with him, and the rest were all trapped in the sea of ​​flames.

General Zhu was so frightened at this time, he dared not stay here, he immediately ran with more than ten soldiers.

Fortunately, although there were people shouting and chasing after him, under the cover of night, General Zhu escaped smoothly.

When there was no more sound of chasing and killing behind them, and no trace of flames could be seen in the sky, everyone collapsed on the road, gasping for breath, secretly rejoicing that they had escaped from death and their lives were recovered.

At this moment, there was a whizzing sound, and a powerful arrow flew towards General Zhu's forehead.

He yelled loudly, and died immediately before he could stand up.

Before the rest of the people could react, swish swish a few more arrows, and immediately five more people were shot to death.

A Niu jumped down from the tree like a ghost, threw away the bow without arrows, and rushed towards the rest of the people with a kitchen knife in his hand...
