Chapter 109, Burning Hole Armor

After Zuzhao's army annexed Goguryeo, many small countries and tribes in the north asked Zuzhao to surrender, but only Xianbei and Wuhuan still competed.

The two countries formed an allied army, and gathered several other small countries and tribes that were unconvinced by the Han, especially many countries on the Korean Peninsula, together with an alliance army of 400,000 and 500,000 people to fight against Zu Zhao. They also threatened to kill the Han land. If they see Han people, they will kill them.

The coalition forces of the two countries began to invade Silla. Fortunately, Ma Yuan led the troops to guard it, so they reluctantly resisted it. However, Queen Quan Zhiyu of Silla has repeatedly asked Zu Zhao for help, saying that the Silla border was full of beacon smoke, allowing Zu Zhao to lead the army quickly to calm the chaos.

Zuo knows that once Silla is in chaos, it will involve Liaodong next. We must not let the war break out on the land of Liaodong, and we must fight in other places. Fortunately, the battle of annexation of Goguryeo did not cause much damage to the army. At this time, the spirit of the soldiers was also there, and many people shouted for troops.

Zu Zhao once again asked the court, saying that Wuhuan, Xianbei and many other small countries began to form a strong alliance to invade the Han Dynasty and request troops. Xu from the imperial court, added Zu Zhao as the general of the barbarian army, and was sealed by him and asked Zu Zhao to send troops. At the same time, Liu Yu, the shepherd of Youzhou, also sent 10,000 troops and 8,000 war horses to support, not to speak of which heavy grain and fodder.

In mid-September, everything was ready. Zu Zhao looked at Zhang Yu and Yu Ban as the vanguard generals, appointed Zhang Yuan and Zhao Meng as generals, Chen Gong as military division, and personally brought 120,000 soldiers out of Xianbei. When he arrived in Silla, Quanzhiyu had 50,000 soldiers, thousands of food and grass, a total of 170,000 troops, marched towards Xianbei.

Xianbei knew that Zu Zhao had advanced towards them with his army, and hurriedly summoned the generals to discuss the strategy of retreating the enemy.

There were fierce generals in the army who took the initiative to fight. They were quadruplets. All four of them were tiger-backed bear waists and pulled out thousands of pounds. The eldest brother's name was Wei Tuwu, which made 182 catties of heavy hammers. He was brave and invincible. The second brother Wei suddenly made two Bluetooth sticks to ride on horses and fly as light as swallows. He was defeated by the wolf alone and became famous in the first battle. The old third lieutenant was stunned and used a machete. He once hunted in the mountains and was trapped for two months. He survived by fighting with bare hands such as wild bears and tigers, shocking the whole clan.

The fourth captain, who is calm and introverted, is a boy. A pair of mountain thieves once injured his father. Before the three brothers came back, he rodd alone. He had an iron bar weighing 120 catties and killed all 500 mountain thieves and returned with more than 500 heads, which shocked the countryside. , known as the dead iron bar lieutenant Lao Si.

General X in the army knows very well about the ability of these four brothers. He knows that the old captain is powerful but reckless, but he can listen to people's advice. The second lieutenant is flexible and can come and go freely in millions of troops. No one can be him, but he is stubborn. As long as no one can persuade him of what he determines, he will suppress it with military orders. It is also difficult to suppress him. Fortunately, he also obeyed orders and the general in the army, but he was too stubborn when he went to war. The old third lieutenant was stunned, 40 years old, good at fighting, and had strong endurance. Even if he was seriously injured, he could fight a war. The fourth captain was also brave and invincible, but this man taught the other three brothers. Brother, but he has more wisdom and learned some military tactics. Now he is a general in the army and can be regarded as the boss of three brothers.

General Tentengam was very happy to see these four people taking the initiative to fight. He asked people to bring wine and dishes, treat them well, and let the four people take 40,000 troops to the border to stop the enemy. Four people killed the blood sacrificial flag, vowing to kill the Han army without leaving a piece of armor, and then took the army to control the enemy's border.

At this moment, the vanguard army led by Yu Ban and Zhang Yu has also just arrived at the boundary of Xianbei. Seeing the dense forest ahead and the heavy rain is beginning to stop, Yu Ban suggested to camp on the spot and attack after figuring out the situation. Zhang Yu listened to Yu's words and immediately ordered the army to camp in place and not to venture forward.

Zhang Yuan knew that his younger brother Zhang Yu was more impulsive, so he specifically told him that he must obey the command of Yu Ban and not act rashly before sending troops. Zhang Yu was also very impressed by Yu Jin. He and Yu Jin fought many times on the school field, and there was no victory or defeat. Yu Jin was skilled in bows and horses, knew the art of war, and would lead troops to array. Therefore, Zhang Yu Yu was still very impressed by Yu Jin. This time, Yu Jin was the right vanguard and led the defeated general, and Zhang Yu was just a left vanguard, but he I don't think there is anything at all. I have great respect for prohibition.

Zu Zhao also specially explained when Yu Forbidden sent troops that although Zhang Yu was brave, he was relatively reckless, so he should control more in the march. Don't let his bad temper come up. It's a small matter to lose the battle, but it's a big loss of his life. Zhang Yu was a general who followed him from the beginning, and now he has a deep affection. He doesn't want Zhang Yu to have an accident. Naturally, Yu Forbidden knew that he was also grateful to Zu Zhao for his trust and expectations. He was also careful along the way and did not dare to move forward rashly.

Now, after camping here, Yu Ban personally took the soldiers to explore the terrain and left Zhang to guard the camp. Yu Jin took a group of attendants into the mountains and forests, and found a Xianbei who knew Chinese as a guide and checked the nearby terrain in detail. I know that the terrain of this generation is very complicated, and there are many natural traps in it. If you march rashly, I'm afraid you will encounter accidents. However, the guides have always been forbidden to talk about the specific traps, and asked the draftsman to record this information on the map one by one for later use.

After exploring, he slowly returned to the army. As soon as he returned to the camp, he didn't see Zhang Yu. As soon as he asked, it turned out that several sika deer had just broken into the camp. Zhang foresaw it and killed one with one arrow and one with another, causing the sergeants to shout loudly. Zhang foresaw that a group of sika deer fled into the forest. Seeing that it was still early, he stepped on the mount and took a light cavalry to hunt.

Yu Jin was shocked when he heard the words. There are natural holes everywhere around here. There are large natural holes that I don't know how to form. The holes are deep and the small ones are one or two meters wide and 70 or 80 meters wide. However, due to the vegetation covering for decades or even hundreds of years, it is difficult to see now. Only people who are very familiar with the terrain of this generation know it. Where are those big holes?

Most importantly, there are thousands of dead branches and leaves piled up in the forest, roaring up to 30 or 40 meters. The leaves below are rotten, forming some voids, but the thick branches below are not all rotten. People fall down for many times, just like entering a hunting pit without returning, which is equivalent to a marshland. It's very horrible. Even the locals are careful. They only dare to go to a safe place, but dare not run around in the forest.

Knowing that Zhang Yu went hunting, Yu was a little uneasy, and it was not suitable to send someone to look for him. Don't find it, but the person sent was missing. In the end, Yu Ban could only let the Xinbing take the war drum horn and send a withdrawal signal up the mountain to let Zhang Pre withdraw.

After Zhang foreseeing a group of sika deer, he suddenly wanted to hunt, so he took a close guard of 40 to 50 people. A group of people chased the sika deer into the forest. After a short time, they disappeared from the sika deer in front of them. They don't know that this group of sika deer have all fallen into a huge pit in front of them, but now the huge pit is still covered with leaves, and they still can't see it.

Zhang Pre hovered there for a while, and finally chose to pursue in another direction, but did not choose to move forward. Then he picked up a small life and did not fall into the huge pit. After a while, he saw a black bear foraging in front of him. Zhang was overjoyed. He took an arrow and pulled a bow and shot directly at the black bear three times in a row. The black bear did not dodge and hit all three arrows. However, the black bear's skin was rough and thick, which did not cause any damage to Zhang Yu's three arrows, but annoyed the big bear. The beast was not afraid of the 40 or 50 enemies in front of him, but roared and waved his heavy bear's paw to attack Zhang Yu and others.

When Zhang Yu and other mounts heard the roar of the black bear, they were all shocked. They turned around and pedaled randomly, and finally overturned many people. Zhang Yu also abandoned the power of nine cows and two tigers before they barely controlled the mount. However, the mount was already frightened and could not attack normally. Seeing the black bear rushing up, Zhang Yuli He carved down the horse and ordered the soldiers to fire bows and arrows.

The soldiers got the order and immediately opened their lineup to shoot arrows at the black bear. The black bear was not afraid and rushed over with heavy rain-like arrows. Seeing that the feather arrow could not resist this guy at all, Zhang Pre ordered everyone to retreat and hide behind the tree and shoot arrows separately.

Although the black bear was full of arrows and shed a lot of blood, it did not hurt its root, so it has been rushing left and right to shoot some people to death. However, these people brought by Zhang Yu are all military who have experienced hundreds of battles, and they have been trained by Feng Luoxue and have a good way of single fighting in the world. Later, he was trained by Chen Youzhi and was also very good at cooperative warfare. Now they have a tacit understanding in fighting. They don't need to command what to do at all, so they can take care of each other and cover each other.

The black bear couldn't succeed in rushing around for a while. Later, the injury gradually worsened, and his body bled too much. Gradually, he was a little weak, and finally chose to escape. Everyone was playful. As Zhang Yu kept chasing the black bear, he did not shoot it to death, but kept aiming at the non-lethal part.

The bear was in pain and ran away while roaring. Zhang Yu chased after the soldiers for a short time, but suddenly the black bear in front of him disappeared. Suddenly, there was a sad roar from the ground. The sound kept going underground and finally disappeared to the ground.

Zhang Yu and the soldiers were shocked. They looked at each other and walked over carefully. They saw a small dark hole in front of them, covered with some leaves. The big black bear disappeared and became hungry here. One of the soldiers rushed up first and bowed it with his hand. He never thought that he would have time to work hard in the future. Slipped and fell down.

Just as he was about to disappear, his collar was suddenly caught. It turned out that Zhang's eyes were not good, and he immediately jumped up and X caught the soldier in the lightning. However, although he caught it, he also slipped and slipped into the pit. In the thrill, the soldiers behind him came one after another and grabbed him.

Zhang Yu said loudly, "Be careful of your feet. This is a trap, pulling each other back." After Zhang's order, the soldiers pulled one by one, and the last few people hugged a big tree to ensure that they would not fall. After a struggle, Zhang Yu finally pulled out four or five people who had fallen into the hole.

Everyone looked at each other with lingering lingering and sighing. They almost fell into the hole. Thank you for saving the life of the general. The soldier immediately saluted Zhang.

Zhang Pre waved his hand and said, "What the hell is this? Is this a trap set by the hunter? It almost hurt us."

There was a soldier who was nine feet long and very tall. He looked in the distance and saw that the hole was dark and could not see anything clearly. He said, "I don't think it's a trap set by the hunter, but like a big natural hole."

When Zhang heard the words, he was even more curious. How could there be such a deep pit in this flat ground? He was really curious, and when he fell in before, he really couldn't see the bottom. At that time, the soldier's cry went down, as if it was a direct passage to hell.

"Is this the ghost hole that goes through hell?" A soldier swallowed his saliva and said.

Zhang Yu immediately scolded, "Don't talk nonsense. There is no ghost hole. This place is too thrilling. I don't know how many such caves there are. I have to inform General Yu when I go back. If such a place is used by the enemy, our march will be affected.

"General, shall we go now? This place is really weird." Some soldiers said.

Zhang Yu shook his head and said, "We have to see what this is first. When we go back, we also have an explanation for General Yu Forbidden. When sending troops, my brother told him to take good care of me. This time, if he didn't bring back a little useful information to General Yu, he would deliberately blame us for not staying in the barracks. With that, he pushed away the thick dead branches and leaves on the ground with his hand and made sure that it was safe before approaching the cave step by step.

When the soldiers saw it, they also learned from Zu Zhao, pushed away the leaves on the ground, moved towards the cave step by step, and finally reached the mouth of the cave. Everyone carefully looked inside. Someone shouted inside, and the sound sounded inside, which was strange and abnormal. Some superstitions firmly believed that this was a ghost hole and suggested that Zhang Pre leave quickly, but Zhang Pre's trumpy temper came up and said that he wanted to go down and have a look.

How can this strange cave, which scared all the soldiers, go in and have a look? It's better to persuade him to leave here as soon as possible. However, Zhang Yu disagreed. He said that he just went down to have a look, and there would be no big deal. As long as the rope was tied to him, the soldiers would slowly put him down.

In the end, everyone couldn't resist Zhang Pre, so they could only take out the ropes and connect them, which were hundreds of meters long, and then let Zhang Pre go down. They pulled the rope outside. Zhang Yu said, "If anything happens, I will pull the rope, and then you will pull me up."

Everyone nodded and agreed and asked him to be careful. They were worried that something would happen to Zhang, but no one dared to say so. They could only say that he should be careful. Once they found something wrong, they immediately pulled the rope, and then they pulled him up.

After Zhang went down, he felt nothing at first, but after going down 40 or 50 meters, he found that the bottom was still black and bottomless. He asked the soldiers to continue to put him down and had to go down to see what was going on. Looking up, I saw a ray of light coming down, and soldiers around the mouth of the cave were carefully looking inside.

When he descended 100 meters, Zhang Yu found that his breathing was a little difficult, and his chest was also sad, and the light inside was too dark to see anything clearly. He shook his head vigorously and found that he was getting more and more difficult to breathe. His head was dizzy, and his chest seemed to be full of breath and lack of breath. In short, he was very uncomfortable, so he pulled the rope and asked someone to pull him up.

When the soldiers saw that the rope was suddenly pulled, they immediately worked together to pull Zhang Pre up and came out of the hole. Only then did Zhang Yu feel much more comfortable. The soldiers hurriedly asked about the situation inside. Zhang Yu said that the underground was too dark to see clearly. However, he still didn't give up and ordered someone to light a torch to go in and have a look. The soldier persuaded for a while, but still couldn't persuade him, and finally lit a torch.

Who knew that the torch was lit, and he heard the horn of withdrawal, and it was very urgent. Well, why did you order the withdrawal of troops? Zhang Yu asked doubtfully.

"Could it be that a thief attacked, so he ordered the withdrawal?" Some soldiers said.

"It's not good. We have to go back to support quickly." Zhang Yu said and immediately threw the torch into the hole and hurriedly left there with the soldiers. Who knew that before they ran 100 meters, they suddenly heard a loud explosion behind them, followed by a wave of mountains and the earth trembled violently.

Zhang Yu and others turned their heads and saw that the fire in the cave rose to the sky. The flame was more than a hundred feet straight, and there were flames rising behind them, and the explosions kept coming. The dead branches and leaves at the mouth of the cave had also been burned. Driven by the strong wind, the flames rushed around and burned quickly in the forest.

Zhang Yu and others suddenly changed their faces and were very surprised. At the same time, they were also surprised that their lives should not be killed. If they went in with a torch, they would be burned to death now. After seeing a fire, everyone hurriedly left there and ran to the barracks. Just a few hundred meters away, suddenly the sound of a pair of soldiers and horses in front of him rushed this way bustlingly.

Zhang listened and didn't know who came. He immediately let the soldiers cover him up. Not long after, a team of people and horses appeared in front of him, the first general, but it was Yu Ban. He looked pale and was running this way with the army. There were four or five horses leading the way in front of him, and there were no people or objects on the horse.

Seeing that Yu Forbidden was coming, Zhang Yu then flashed out with the soldiers. Yu Yu was finally relieved when he saw Zhang Yu. He looked at the fire in front of him and asked, "What the hell is going on?"

Zhang Yu said, "There is a deep pit in front of us. After we threw the torch into it, there was an explosion. I don't know what's inside."

Yu Forbidden looked at it for a while and said, "You are fine. Get out of here quickly. The fire has burned."
