The 27th episode of Heart-Pounding Ghost Story: The Sprouting of Deceptive Words
Guo Si, who was on the other side of the forest, heard the mournful cries and was greatly alarmed. He immediately sent out several dozen cavalrymen to investigate the situation.
The masked woman's two black cloths struck out and took the heads of several soldiers, at which point Wu Xi suddenly seemed to have lost his three souls and seven spirits.
When he was about to order his troops to retreat from the forest, the soldiers beside him fell one by one "silently" under their horses. Wu Xi dared not stay any longer and fled in a hurry.
Dozens of cavalrymen who came to gather information saw Wu Xi rushing forward like a lost soul, and they looked at each other in dismay. One of the soldiers said, "General Wu won't have gone mad, will he?"
The soldier's voice had just fallen when a loud noise was heard. Dozens of soldiers felt as if they were standing on the edge of a cliff, swaying precariously.
After the two black shadows passed by, those dozens of soldiers suddenly fell into a huge deep pit along with their horses, and the pit was filled with sharp bamboo.
A few dark clouds floated slowly across the sky, and that deep pit became the burial ground for those dozens of soldiers, with no one surviving.
"General, General Wu has returned!" A soldier excitedly reported to Guo Zhi after seeing Wuji riding a horse.
Guo Zhan fixed his eyes on him, and saw that Wu Xi's face was pale and haggard, his eyes dazed and unfocused. Although he was riding a horse, in reality he was letting the horse move forward on its own. ?? Hu Bao Riding 27
Kuai saw this situation and immediately ordered his soldiers to drag him down from the horse.
Wu Xi's feet touched the ground, but he couldn't even stand steadily, so Guo Zuo had to let several soldiers support him.
"General Wu, what's wrong with you?" Guo Si felt something was amiss.
Wu Xi suddenly said: "Ghost... ghost... there's a ghost in that thicket!"
"This is utter nonsense! How dare you confuse the minds of our soldiers here? Take this Wu Xi away and execute him according to military law!" Guo Si shouted in great anger.
Hu Zhen saw that dozens of soldiers had gone, but only Wu Xi came back. He hastily said to Guo Si: "General, this matter is very strange, it's better to investigate the situation first!"
"Are you going to investigate? How are you going to investigate? Are you going?" Guo Ze glared at Hu Zhen with a furious expression. In fact, he had no intention of killing Wu Xi, but in front of ten thousand soldiers, he still had to put on a show, after all, the rumors of ghosts and gods were easy to disrupt the morale of the troops. If the morale of the troops was greatly disrupted, wouldn't he be defeated without a fight?
Hu Zhe's face showed a difficult expression. This pitch-black forest was a place where no one would dare to venture into its mysterious depths.
"General Hu, General Yang, come forward and receive your orders!"
Na Hu and Yang Ding heard this order and walked to Guo Si's horse in trepidation.
"General Guo gave them a stern look and said, 'I'll assign 100 elite cavalrymen to you two. You have the time it takes to drink a cup of tea to investigate and get back to me with a clear report. If not, I'll deal with you according to military law!'"
"Huh?" Hu Zhi and Yang Ding looked at each other in dismay, not daring to accept the order.
Kuai, in a fit of rage, drew his sword and pointed it at the two of them: "If you don't leave, this general will take your lives right now! This general has never kept useless people!"
Seeing Guo Zuo's stern expression, Hu Zhu and Yang Ding had no choice but to force a smile and bow: "We two will definitely not disappoint your expectations!"
But when the two of them led a hundred elite cavalry into the forest, they only felt the cold wind blowing, and the thin fog surrounding them. As far as the eye could see, the front was like an impenetrable "barrier" that firmly blocked their way. ?? Tiger Leopard Rider 27
Hu Zhen whispered to Yang Ding: "Are we going to die in vain like this?"
Yang Ding said helplessly: "We two are now riding a tiger, it's hard to get off, let's do this, we'll divide the hundred cavalry into two groups, and let fifty cavalry go ahead and explore the road, we'll follow behind. If something unexpected happens to those fifty cavalry, we'll immediately turn back! As for Guo Ze asking, we just need to say that there really are ghosts, he won't do anything to us now!"
Hu Zhong sighed and said, "You and I were once heroes, but now we have fallen to such a state. Well, well, there's no other way, this is all we can do for now."
Hu Zhi and Yang Ding divided the hundred elite cavalry into two groups, each with fifty men. They first sent fifty to scout ahead, while they followed closely behind the rear fifty.
Just as they were proceeding with caution, a sudden loud cry was heard and all one hundred of them immediately became alert.
When they found out it was just a soldier's horse neighing, they were relieved and continued walking forward with renewed courage.
The first fifty people were also trembling with fear, but the distance between them and the last fifty people seemed to be constantly widening.
Just as they were about to wait for the fifty people behind them who couldn't be seen, four black shadows suddenly darted to their rear.
Two black cloths swooped down like dragonflies skimming the water, taking the heads of the people on the ground, while the glittering long spears danced in front of their eyes like flying snow.
"Save... save us!" several soldiers shouted loudly.
But their cries for help had barely fallen when the heads of those on the execution ground were already rolling on the ground.
"You... did you hear the cry for help?" Hu Zhen asked Yang Ding with some trepidation.
"Good... it seems so!" Yang Ding almost brought his heart to his throat, this atmosphere was really deadly.
"Go! You few go take a look!"
Hu Zhe casually pointed to several soldiers, and those soldiers trembled with fear as they rode forward on horseback. However, before long, they also disappeared into the dark forest.
"How come he's still not back? Could it be that there really are ghosts?" The cold wind blew in front of Hu Zhe, forcing him to shiver and feel like he was about to collapse.
Yang Dingdao said: "This General Guo is really too stubborn, why not just take a detour and move forward? Isn't this deliberately looking for trouble?"
Just as Yang Ding was complaining non-stop, Hu Zhu suddenly opened his eyes wide and pointed behind Yang Ding's back.
Yang Ding looked at Hu Zhi and said: "What are you pointing at me for?"
Hu Zhen hastily shook his head, but Yang Ding turned around incredulously. When he saw a bloody head hanging in front of him, he almost fainted.
"There's a ghost!" Yang Ding shouted loudly.
Those fifty soldiers suddenly fell into chaos and rushed out together.
Hu Zhong and Yang Ding fled like madmen.
What made them tremble with fear was that during their escape, as soon as a black shadow passed by, several soldiers would fall behind them.
When they finally saw Guo Zhi's large army, Hu Zhuan and Yang Ding discovered that behind them, apart from a few lone horses, there was no one else.
"General, it's really a ghost! One hundred soldiers disappeared in an instant!" Hu Zhen and Yang Ding were tearfully recounting everything they had seen.
Kuai Zhi suddenly turned over and grabbed Hu Zong's beard, saying: "If you say that again, General will take your life directly!"
Hu Zhen saw this situation and immediately fell silent. At this time, Yang Ding was also honestly lowering his head and remaining silent.
Although Guo Zhan did not believe in the sayings of ghosts and gods, he had to order his soldiers to set up camp on the spot after so many casualties in such a short period of time, and wait until dawn to investigate further.
Ma Fu, Yin Feng and others saw that there were no more cavalry coming, knowing that the great achievement was accomplished, they immediately returned to the other side of the forest.
The groom said to the veiled woman: "Thank you very much!"
The masked woman's willow eyebrows slightly curved, although she didn't respond, her intention had already been revealed on those willow eyebrows.
At this time, Yin Feng had already understood the strategy of Ma Fu. He sincerely and respectfully said to Ma Fu: "The move you used is truly too brilliant! If we don't continue to harass them intermittently tonight, Guo Si's army will definitely be restless!"
Ma Fu smiled slightly and said, "These words are wrong. We're not going to make his army restless, but rather make them dare not take a step beyond the Thunder Pond, and then slowly toy with them to death! Everyone has worked hard, take a short rest, we'll set off again later!"
Just as Marv's army had finished setting up camp, he received some exhilarating news.
"Brother Yang's plan of fire attack is truly too brilliant!" Ma Fu's joyful emotions overflowed from his words.
"Now that General Ma has won, what should we do next?" Zhao Ang asked.
Ma Chao said: "General Ma has already explained in his letter that the large army he brought with him has almost used up its food and grass, while Li Jue and Han Sui's armies have merged into one place, stubbornly defending An Yi City. For the time being, he has no intention of attacking the city. On the contrary, he wants us to continue to hold off Guo Si's army, and after he quietly retreats his troops, we will join forces to eliminate Guo Si's army and retake Wuwei!
"Why should we quietly retreat? Since we have won a great victory, why not take advantage of the momentum to retake An Yi?" Yin Feng said straightforwardly.
Ma Fu smiled and said, "Brother Yin can underestimate the strength of Han Sui and Li Jue, but never underestimate the abilities of Cheng Gongying and Jia Xu. Those two are worth a hundred thousand elite soldiers!"
Yin Feng said with disdain: "Just a scholar without the strength to bind a chicken, only knows how to show off his verbal skills. If I were to encounter them, I would only need one shot to take care of both of them!"
The groom shook his head and said, "Even Yang brother said in the letter that he is not as good as them, the previous victory was mainly due to the advantage of heaven and earth."
"Alright, alright! I don't understand what you're saying either, let's just drop it. In my eyes, as long as the problem can be solved with this rifle in my hand, then there is no problem."
The groom looked up at the sky and laughed loudly, then patted Yin Feng's shoulder and said, "Your words seem a bit like 'Political power grows out of the barrel of a gun'?"
Yin Feng scratched his head and said somewhat awkwardly: "I don't understand!"
"In these chaotic times, if you don't have soldiers at your command, forget about having a foothold."
Yin Feng heard this and suddenly felt a gleam in his eye, he leaned over to the groom and whispered: "General, are you saying that you will also leave General Ma and strike out on your own?"
The groom hastily coughed twice and said: "This... this..."
Actually at this time, Ma Fu's heart still did not have a complete plan for his own future.
Yin Feng was overjoyed to receive such a response from Ma Fu, after all, he neither confirmed nor denied it, which means that in his heart of hearts, there is still a "sprout" existing...
