Throne of Vientiane Civilization

At the foot of the mountain, while collecting Liang Jun's supplies, Xie Liancheng did not forget to order two cavalry squads to confirm the area of ​​the mountain along the foot of the mountain to prevent Liang Jun from sneaking down the mountain from another location after escaping into the mountain. Escaped.

During this process, the large force headed by Shi Lei quickly arrived here smoothly and completed the rendezvous with Jie Liancheng.

This was due to Xie Liancheng's actions, which greatly slowed down Liang Jun's movement efficiency.

"Escaped into the mountains?"

After confirming the news, a small wrinkle appeared between Shi Lei's brows, but it soon relaxed.

"It doesn't matter. The Liang Kingdom can't protect itself now. These Liang Army soldiers are hiding in the mountains without logistical supplies. In the end, they will self-destruct."

Of course, the prerequisite for allowing Liang Jun to destroy themselves is that they cannot escape.

Shi Lei naturally knew what to do and directly asked his troops to form a blockade along the foot of the mountain.

"Lieutenant Colonel, if our large army besieges Liang Jun here, how can we fight against Liang Jun over there?"

Hearing the adjutant's question, Shi Lei gave the adjutant a strange look.

"Who said that our expedition this time was aimed at Liang's city?"

"ah?"

The adjutant was confused.

Seeing this, Shi Lei patiently explained...

"From the beginning to the end, we have only one purpose, and that is to contain the large forces of Liang State. Now that the main forces of Liang State are here, if they cannot withdraw, the remaining forces of Liang State will be completely unable to attack us. Zhou’s siege troops posed a threat.”

Speaking of this, Shi Lei paused.

"Do you understand? It doesn't matter whether we go to attack Liang Guo's city or not. What's important is that we can't let this large force go back."

The adjutant suddenly realized that Commander Liang Jun, who was hiding in the mountains and forests with his troops during this period, undoubtedly also knew this.

Therefore, his purpose from the beginning was not only to get rid of the pursuit of the Zhou cavalry troops, but also to try to lure them into the mountains.

Once the cavalry dismounts and enters the mountain, it is not much different from them.

Under this premise, according to their strength advantage, it is easy to destroy the opponent.

Unexpectedly, the Zhou cavalry on the opposite side didn't want to accept this trick at all. They turned around and took away the materials and equipment at the foot of the mountain that they had no time to deal with. This made Commander Liang Jun almost bite his back molars in anger.

There was no other way. In this situation, he could only change his strategy immediately and see if he could go down the mountain from another position.

As a result, the Zhou cavalry at the foot of the mountain started patrolling at the foot of the mountain like roundworms in his stomach.

How could their movement efficiency in the mountains compare with that of the cavalry at the foot of the mountains?

The Da Zhou troops that arrived later completely rejected his idea.

Now, without considering taking the initiative to go down the mountain and have a head-on conflict with the Zhou troops, they basically have only one choice left, which is to climb over the mountain and find a way out from the other side of the mountain.

To be honest, this is not a good choice, not only because the mountain is difficult to walk, but also because they do not know what is on the other side of the mountain and it is full of unknown risks.

Faced with this choice, coach Liang Jun fell into brief contemplation and then made a decision.

At the same time, the Da Zhou troops, who were ready to spend a long time here, had already set up camp at the foot of the mountain. Inside the camp, Shi Lei was thinking about something in a daze. The adjutant called him several times before he realized what was going on.

"Lieutenant Colonel, what are you thinking about?"

After hearing this, Shi Lei spoke calmly...

"I'm wondering what the opponent will choose."

Speaking of this, Shi Lei paused.

"What do you want from me?"

"I almost forgot, Lieutenant Colonel, this is the patrol arrangement for the night, please take a look."

"..."

Time has fallen quietly into the night, and compared with the hot daytime, it is obviously much cooler now.

As the night grew darker, the entire area became quiet, leaving only the chirping of insects in the mountains and forests.

At this moment, a burst of shouting broke out at the foot of the mountain, breaking the tranquility of the dark night!

Torches were being lit one after another, and under the cover of night, Liang Jun quietly reached the foot of the mountain. At this moment, he was charging at the fastest speed towards the camp where the Zhou troops were stationed not far away!

"Success or failure depends on tonight, soldiers, kill!!"

At the moment of life and death, Commander Liang Jun also drew the sword from his waist and took the lead in charging towards the Da Zhou camp.

At this moment, a sharp whistling sound sounded.

Before they could react, a dense rain of arrows flew out from the Dazhou camp under the cover of night.

At the same time, a large number of fires lit up in the Dazhou camp.

Under the illumination of the fire in the camp, the heavily armed Dazhou troops in military formations suddenly caught the eye of Commander Liang Jun, causing his whole face to lose all color in an instant.

[Damn it, did the other side guess that I was going to attack at night? ! 】

Realizing this, Commander Liang Jun's eyes passed through a large number of Zhou soldiers arrayed in military formations, and finally fell on Shi Lei, who was dressed in military uniform.

The coaches of the two armies looked at each other from a distance. Shi Lei was neither happy nor sad, but he was calm as he had the overall situation in hand.

"Fire the arrow!"

After the order was issued, another round of arrow rain swept out. A large number of Liang Jun soldiers who rushed in front were killed by random arrows on the spot.

At this moment, even the head coach Liang Jun had some thoughts of retreat in his heart, thinking of retreating to the mountains and forests to temporarily avoid the edge.

Unexpectedly, before he could finish this thought, a rumble of horse hooves came from behind, which made his heart sink.

In the blink of an eye, the Zhou cavalry led by Jie Liancheng had already blocked their way back to the mountains and forests.

At the same time, the Dazhou soldiers who were also dormant around them also held spears, formed an encirclement, and advanced steadily, completely blocking their retreat.

Now it's better, the escape route is completely blocked.

After two rounds of arrow rain, Shi Lei's voice rang out.

"You have no way out. If you give up resistance, I can still spare your lives!"

In this situation, the words of persuading surrender can be said to have greatly affected the morale of the Liang Army soldiers and put them in an unprecedented state of vacillation.

Under tremendous pressure and feeling the threat of death, one of the soldiers couldn't help but take a step forward.

"I……"

Unexpectedly, as soon as he said a word, a long sword pierced his chest from behind, making all Liang Jun soldiers look stern.

"Changing sides in battle! The crime is the same as treason! According to law, the nine clans will be implicated!!"

Pulling out his sword, Commander Liang Jun glared fiercely at Shi Lei who was standing opposite him, then raised the long sword that was still dripping with blood in his hand and pointed it directly at him.

"I am here to announce today that if you kill one person, you will be rewarded with a hundred taels of silver. If you kill ten people, you will be made a centurion. If you behead an enemy general, you will be rewarded with a reward of a thousand taels and you will be granted the title of Marquis of Ten Thousand Households!!"

At this moment, every time Commander Liang Jun spoke, the soldiers under his command were breathing heavier.

Under the heavy reward, there must be a brave man!

Coupled with the threat of the nine implicated tribes, the Liang Jun soldiers who were originally wavering refirmed their stance at this moment.

Shi Lei, who saw this scene in his eyes, turned cold.

Immediately afterwards, the coaches of both sides yelled out that word almost at the same time.

"kill!!!"
