Wu Fan's army marched rapidly, lighting torches and rushing into the valley at great speed.

"Hu——" Wu Changbo, who was riding a horse, took a deep breath.

"Your Highness." A general next to him handed over a water bag at the right time.

"Would you like to take a break?"

"No need." Wu Changbo gulped down a big gulp of water.

"Soldiers are valuable and quick."

"There are many bandit monsters."

"We need to take advantage of their scattered forces and defeat them in one fell swoop."

"Hmm..." Wu Changbo's eyes changed slightly as he looked towards the dark valley.

"My Lord, what's wrong?"

"Are the vegetation in the valleys here so lush?" Wu Changbo compared it with previous battles in the mountains and felt something was wrong.

"Probably." The general next to him couldn't figure it out either.

"A wild place like Yunnan has always been rich in giant trees."

"When the previous dynasty built the palace, a lot of wood was collected from here..."

"Rustle, rustle." The breeze blew gently, bringing with it the sound of branches, leaves and stems rubbing against each other.

"No!!" Wu Changbo's war sense, cultivated over many years on the battlefield, made him aware of the approaching danger.

but……

late!

“Puff, puff, puff!”

"Whoosh whoosh!"

Amidst a sound like roots being pulled out of the soil, Wu Fan's soldiers were shocked and horrified to find that both sides of the valley, above it, and even on both sides of the path were densely packed with black shadows.

It was completely unclear how many people had come.

They were like iron barrels, densely surrounding the Wu Fan soldiers who were forming a long snake formation.

In the light of the fire, the vegetative body structure of the Pea Shooter and the black muzzle of the gun aimed at Wu Fan's soldiers were vaguely visible.

"Hahaha!!"

Shu Yichao laughed loudly at Wu Changbo from a high place.

"The surname is Wu!"

"You've been ambushed--hehehe!!"

"Bros!"

"Kill the monster!"

"Revenge for Prince Li Jin!"

"Bang, bang, bang!!" The continuous explosions, like the firecrackers at midnight on New Year's Eve, completely drowned the sky and the earth in the noise.

At that moment, everyone present seemed to have lost their hearing, with only a buzzing sound in their heads.

I could only barely see my comrades' mouths opening and closing under the flickering firelight, but no sound came from them.

Then, what came into view was blood splattering on the chest, and Wu Fan's soldiers crawled on the ground like cut wheat.

The dense corpses filled the path in the valley, and the gurgling blood gathered into a mighty river.

When Shu Yichao quietly arranged his formation, he deployed pea-like gunners at every angle, forming an extremely dense and fierce crossfire network.

The result was that after just one round of firing, at least a thousand Wu Fan soldiers fell!

"Ah!!" It was not until this time that Wu Fan's soldiers reacted.

"ambush!"

“We’ve been ambushed!!”

They never expected to run into Shu Yichao here.

Isn't it said that the bandits are as slow as turtles, and it will take at least several days for them to run into them?

How did we get ambushed so suddenly?

In an instant, Wu Fan's army was thrown into chaos.

"Keep firing!!"

Shu Yichao didn't hesitate at all.

Another row of Wu Fan soldiers fell to the ground screaming.

Just like that, the sounds of explosions, screams, and wails instantly filled the entire valley and lasted for a long time.

Chapter 709 - Borrowing a Brain

be cheated.

Fell into a trap.

I was ambushed by a group of bandits.

Wu Changbo stood in the dense white fog, watching his soldiers crawling in the blood one after another, listening to the explosions and wailing in his ears, with a look of confusion in his eyes.

who is he?

He entered the battlefield to fight when he was a teenager. He rescued his besieged father with only dozens of cavalrymen from among thousands of soldiers and horses, which made the famous Jianzhou cavalry praise him as a brave and fierce general.

He spent his entire life in the military, fighting from Shanhaiguan to Kunming Lake, invincible. No matter how powerful the opponent was, they were no match for him.

Except for a few tough guys, Wu Changbo could usually easily crush the opponent's insignificant and futile resistance.

Therefore, although he personally led the troops this time, deep down in his heart he did not take the so-called "monsters" seriously.

They were just wild monsters. He had shot and killed many of them in the mountains and forests of western Liaoning.

It's just a beast with slightly greater strength.

They are a threat to hunters, but to battle-hardened soldiers?

Ha ha.

Add some food.

Therefore, what Wu Changbo was thinking more about was how to report to Emperor Kangxi and Emperor Qianlong that all the Eight Banners soldiers were missing.

If this matter is not handled properly, it may affect his permanent residence in Yunnan.

bandits?

-They're just a bunch of slow turtles, just run them over.

But the extremely tragic scene before him seemed to have given Wu Changbo a slap in the face.

His heart is bleeding.

These soldiers are the elite troops he gathered with great difficulty.

Normally, I treasure it so much, but this time, the loss...

He would probably cry out loud in his dreams when he got back.

How could this happen?!

This battle was fought...

"Prince, be careful!!" Just when Wu Changbo was in a daze, the personal soldiers around him suddenly threw him to the ground.

"Bang bang bang!!"

The next second, a large amount of blood mist came out from the body of the personal guard.

A row of bullets pierced their bodies fiercely, tearing them into pieces in an instant.

"Your Majesty!"

Several generals pulled Wu Changbo out from the pile of dead bodies.

"Are you okay?"

"I'm fine, I..." Wu Changbo was about to speak when he suddenly thought of the slogan Shu Yichao had shouted before.

"Prince Li Jin?"

"Li Changsheng!?"

He suddenly woke up.

"correct!"

"They had previously called for revenge for Li Changsheng

"That's right!"

"It must be the remnants of Li Changsheng's army!"

"There are still some pseudo-cute remnants who haven't come out to surrender!"

Now that makes sense.

Although after Li Chang's death, his son, generals and a large number of soldiers chose to shave their heads and surrender.

But there is always a small group who would rather die than surrender.

It's not impossible that these people have colluded with the chieftains and monsters in the mountains and continue to fight against the imperial army!

In just a moment, Wu Changbo completed his self-consolation.

Since they are the remnants of Li Changsheng, this is normal.

Didn't he also suffer a great loss during the bloody battle at Mopan Mountain?

"All units hold steady and resist on the spot!!" Wu Changbo stood up and roared.

"Hold on, little bastards!"

Wu Fan's soldiers were indeed the elite selected from battles fought in many battles. Soon, they built simple fortifications using all kinds of baggage, corpses and horses, despite the hail of bullets from the pea-sized musketeers.

Gradually, they stabilized their position in some dangerous areas, and then began to fight back with bows, guns, and cannons.

"Kill!" Some brave soldiers even launched a counterattack while the pea-gunners were reloading.

"Crack!!" Under the sharp knife, the pea gunners who were reloading were caught off guard and were chopped down in large numbers.

The light green juice spilled all over the dark road.

"Hahaha!!"

"A breach has been made."

"Brothers, come on!"

"Kill these monsters."

Wu Fan's soldiers seemed to see hope of breaking the formation and rushed over there.

"Open fire!" Shu Yichao, who had lost a position, ordered the pea-gunners in the rear to fire at the position in front where the melee was going on without blinking.

joke.

How could such an ambush be carried out without setting up multiple lines of defense, three layers inside and three layers outside?

"ah!!"

“Puff!!”

Wu Fan's soldiers did not expect that Shu Yichao would even attack his own people. They immediately fell to the ground in the overwhelming gunfire and finally fled, leaving behind rows of corpses.

"Your Majesty!"

After fighting several times, Wang Fuchen wiped the blood off his face and came back to report to Wu Changbo anxiously.

"I can't move forward!"
