Chapter 25 Nine Corpses Welcome Guests (4)

"Are there any enemies around?" Ye Fengma asked angrily.

But he also forgot that Xixia was the same tragic way. After catching the prisoners of war, he cut his ears and noses, and how to scare him.

"General Ye Bi, we have investigated around and there is no enemy."

"Continue to inquire and bury this man."

"Here."

However, in a moment, another news came from the front. Ye Fengma was angry and immediately counted two thousand cavalrymen, including Tiejiazi, and rushed forward quickly.

The second body appeared, and it was the scout he sent out.

Like the first one, all halves were facing a bronze mirror, as if he had encountered something terrible before his death, his eyes wide open and he died with his eyes open. On the other side, he hooked the man's skin with many iron hooks and hung it on the trunk.

"Buried immediately and inquire around."

But soon I saw the third corpse, which was even worse. There was a earth stove. There was a steamer on the earth stove. The head was placed in the steamer and steamed. There was a charcoal stove under the tree on the other side. There was a small iron pillar in the charcoal stove. The iron pillar was burning red. The body was holding the iron pillar, making a smell of corpse coming from the air.

"Buried immediately, explore again, try to explore as far as possible, there will definitely be enemies nearby."

It was not over, and the fourth corpse came again, and the head was lying in a piece of ice. I don’t know where the people of Ji Song got the ice cubes at this time. There were ice cubes, but most of them were used by rich people in the Song Dynasty for summer. In autumn, the ice cubes were also emptied. Moreover, it was late autumn.

The lower body was lying on dozens of blades, as if it was on the sword mountain.

However, it was not as bad as the bottom. The fifth corpse came soon, and the head was fried in the oil pan. The lower body was even more unethical. The Song people deliberately picked a scalper that was about to die and cut dozens of small holes on it. The old scalper was in pain and was tied up by the rope and could not run away. So they trampled on the corpse desperately. When Ye Fengma discovered it, the corpse had already been trampled into meat paste.

The sixth corpse is slightly better, but not much better. There are big stones pressed on the lower half of the body, and the head is placed in a mortar and a pestle is made into a meat sauce.

Ye Fengma roared: "Tell me the order. Conquer Huachi Town and massacre the city."

Before he finished speaking, the seventh corpse appeared, and the blood was dried by Song Rensheng, and then the blood was placed in the basin. The head was placed in the blood.

One more disgusting thing, and some Xixia soldiers who buried their bodies couldn't help but vomit.

The eighth corpse was also miserable, but a little strange. The lower part of the body was lingchi, and the head was burned in an iron pot. However, the head was not burned. The soldier poured the hot oil into the pot and found that there was only a layer of oil floating on it and the bottom was full of vinegar. This was scientific, but Ye Fengma thought about it. He continued to let his subordinates bury it.

The cruelest one is the ninth corpse, with the lower body being sawed in half by a large saw, and the head was even worse. A small donkey was pulling a stone mill for no reason, but the stone mill below had no holes, so after the head was ground into meat sauce, it continued to grind in the mill.

Now most of the soldiers wanted to vomit.

Then Ye Fengma saw a large wooden sign with sixteen big words written on it, nine corpses welcomed guests. There was no return. Put down the butcher's knife and turn back to the shore.

Keep moving forward. That is not Huachi County, but the eighteen levels of hell. Stop invasion and turn back is the way to live.

"Ah!" Ye Fengma shouted to the sky: "Wang Ju, do you want to scare me if you want to make a trick?"

As he said that, he rushed down with his subordinates to see if the bridge that Song Ji mentioned was there.

However, the war horse under his crotch neighed, almost overturning him. Not only him, but dozens of other cavalrymen rushing in front were like this. Ye Fengma immediately jumped off the war horse to see what happened.

I saw it and it turned out that the Song people buried many caltrops underground, and there was another layer of floating soil on them. If you were not careful, you wouldn't see it at all.

The ubiquitous caltrop!

But there was no way to run on horseback, so he sent someone to the rear to call Song Ji and asked, "How far is it to leave this forest?"

"It's four or five miles away."

“What should I do now?”

"It's a bit difficult to deal with, so I can only send infantry to slowly find these traps."

"There is something else happening in the forest," Ye Feng said the Nine Corpses of Mahjong just now.

"Eighteen-layer hell, nine corpses welcome guests?" Song Ji was puzzled: "Do they want to shave our morale?"

"It stimulates our morale."

"Whether it is peeling or stimulating, it's not that simple," Song Ji looked at the forest, and he sniffed it with his nose: "What does it smell?"

“It has a weird smell.”

Song Ji crawled into the forest to look for it, and then took out a handful of things: "It's sulfur."

"No, please order to retreat quickly." Ye Fengma said immediately.

Because when dealing with the Nine Corpses to welcome guests, people were sent to the forest to inquire carefully, and the large army behind them also entered the mountains and forest roads.

Song Ji was also worried that Wang Ju would use fire to attack, so he did not make any sound.

The three soldiers immediately withdrew from the mountains and forests and returned to Qingxichuan, which was safe here.

Song Ji and Ye Fengma looked at the forest again, and Song Ji said, "It doesn't seem like that, General Ye Feng, look at this forest."

It is late autumn, and many plants and trees are withered and yellow, but this forest is not dominated by deciduous trees, but by evergreen trees such as pine and fir. Moreover, because the people often go to the forest to graz, there are not many dead grass on the ground. How much sulfur does it take to pile up to ignite this forest?

"What do the Song people want to do?"

"Let me think about it, General Ye Bi, do you think it would be another possibility. They deliberately did this to pretend to be suspicious of the troops, making us afraid to attack Huachi Town, or drag us to wait for reinforcements from the rear or Yanzhou direction?"

If Wang Ju could hear it, he would definitely be crying. Where can there be reinforcements from Yanzhou?

However, in Ye Bima's heart, it seemed that this possibility was really possible. And Wang Ju cultivated Hua Fu and said that if he was in a hurry, he would send someone to ask for help today and he would count it in the afternoon. The troops from Yanzhou would arrive in Huachi Town the night after tomorrow.

Otherwise, why do you have to make such a vicious Nine Corps welcome?

So Ye Fengma immediately ordered to send three thousand infantry soldiers to clear roadblocks in the forest, and the caltrops had to be found from the ground so that the army could survive. But after such a struggle, we could not leave tonight. Even if we could leave, it was too late, and this forest was the best place to ambush. Therefore, Ye Fengma immediately ordered camping and then sent people to inquire.

A moment later, the scout came to report: "That village is empty, and no one was seen around for several miles."

They may not be able to detect someone, but there is definitely no ambush from the large army.

This further proves Song Ji's speculation.

But Song Ji became more and more uneasy. He watched everyone camping and found Zhao Sishun: "General Sishun, have you ever dealt with Wang Ju before?"

"No, my village is under the jurisdiction of Dashun City."

“Have you heard of anything?”

"The people's statements should not be taken seriously."

"What did you say?"

"Song Mie, what did you say? Haven't you heard of it in Gyeongju before?"

It is nothing more than sayings praising Wang Ju. What is the literary and quintessential star, what is the Xiao Wang, and what is the both civil and military.

"What do you think of this Nine Corps Welcoming Guest?"

"I don't know much, but it did scare some soldiers."

The large army behind did not see it, but most of the two thousand cavalrymen saw it. They were camping and talking. Not every soldier was brave. Some soldiers felt distressed when they heard it, especially when they hit the man.

"Then it seems to be right." Song Ji said.

This battle must be defeated, otherwise, if this matter is about to spread after the defeat, it will invisibly weaken the morale of many soldiers. Even if you are not afraid of death, are you afraid of being tortured to death like the Nine Corpses?

So he found Ye Fengma and said to Ye Fengma: "General Ye Feng. Soldiers are forbidden to talk about this matter, such as talking about it, breaking Huachi Town, and then talking about it after the massacre of the city."

If you don’t massacre the city, your morale will not be boosted.

Ye Biaoma immediately ordered.

However, Song Ji still felt something was wrong, so he continued to look at the forest. Now it was late September, and the sun was getting shorter. After a round trip, the sunset gradually set. At this time, the day was a little better, and it began to get colder at night. Although it was not frozen, it was only a few degrees Celsius. Some soldiers waded through the stream and cut down trees on the mountain and set up a bonfire. Then he stared at the river. To be precise, it was just a stream, and even in summer, it was very shallow. By this time, it became shallower, and smooth pebbles were exposed.

Song Ji put himself in the other party for consideration.

Water attack is impossible.

Fire attack seems impossible. Besides, thinking about it now, there is no need to retreat even if it is a true fire attack, why should you use the Nine Corpses to welcome guests to alarm your army?

Ambush battles are not possible. Although the mountains and forests are dense, there are scouts in Guangshu, where can I ambush them?

Are you really scared and delaying your time waiting for reinforcements?

Zhao Sishun stared at him and said to Ye Bima: "General Ye Bima, this Song Mie is not good, he is as timid as a mouse..."

"That's not, he used to be a Black Bee Stealer."

"Black Bee Steal?" Zhao Sishun had never heard of it.

"He used to join Yu Feng, the leader of Weilinzhai Village, and Yu Feng covered his veil of black bees. He robbed many goods from private merchants of the Song Dynasty and killed many Song people. Therefore, the people called them black bees thieves, but they were destroyed twice by Wang Ju, so he was a little afraid of Wang Ju." Ye Feng said about the mahjong Song Ji.

"So that's it, that boy is hiding in the dark."

"Yes, I think so too, just like last year's three battles, when everyone took it lightly, they succeeded for the boy. Can he do it now? Where can I hide it when the ambush?"

This is the role of the scout and Ye Fengma's confidence.

He said again: "But besides he fears Wang Ju, the rest are also good, and he has come up with many ideas for me."

Zhao Sishun snorted coldly.

He also defected to his new master and had to compete for favor.

The sky gradually became darker, and at this moment, a report from the front was heard that a Song Dynasty foreign cavalry suddenly came in from outside the forest. It was very fierce and asked for support in front of him.

Ye Fengma immediately sent a cavalry into Lin for rescue, looked at the sky again, and said, "Let them come back and rest. When tomorrow dawn, we will enter the cleaning again."

A long time later, the army in front retreated, with no serious casualties. Seeing the arrival of the Western Xia cavalry, the Song Dynasty cavalry also retreated. Song Ji listened to everyone's report and said, "General Ye Bi, it seems that the enemy wants to delay time as I guess."

“There is this possibility.”

"There is no need to send people alone to clean it tomorrow. The army goes directly into the forest. The scouts scatter and inquire. The vanguard cleans up and march while cleaning... No, I will send two thousand troops into the forest road to camp to prevent the arrival of the evening. The Song people once again laid caltrops. In addition, I will send people to patrol continuously to prevent the Song people from attacking."

A very safe arrangement, Ye Fengma immediately accepted it.

So two thousand Xia soldiers entered the forest road again.

It's getting dark.

At the second update, there was movement ahead. Several soldiers hurried back. While they were patrolling in the forest, someone shot an arrow book with a line of big words: Turning back is the shore, you can't wait, you can't wait, you can't go there in the third update, you can't go there!
