The sun is at the top. [To see the latest chapters of this book, please go to Qiushu.] ――

The sun was slanting to the treetops.

The color of the sun gradually dimmed.

The sun went down.

It's finally dark.

"Let's go!"

Sima laughed and gave an order, and the Zhenbei army, which had rested for a day, began to hit the road. However, they did not put away the tents they had set up, on the contrary, the entire north shore of Lushui was still lit up as before, like thousands of fireflies resting quietly in the grass.

It seemed as if the whole army was still stationed in the north of Lushui, and it was completely impossible to tell that this was already an empty city.

"Sure enough, Sima Xiao, who is known as the fox of Zhenbei, is really cunning enough. If it weren't for the fact that our army had a detailed work in the Zhenbei Army, he would have really been deceived by this. ”

King Dongping said with a sneer.

"King Dongping is really good, I really admire, admire!"

King Xichuan praised with his hand, but he was secretly frightened in his heart. How long ago did Dongping start plotting? Since when have you started to act in the shadows?

The spy who assassinated Red Qi last time was a senior general of the Zhenbei Army!

Such a person cannot be laid down overnight.

To rise from an ordinary soldier to that position, without a background, even if you have talent, without a decade or two, it is simply impossible.

And the chess pieces laid by the Dongping Wangfu in the north of the town are obviously not only one.

And what about Nishikawa?

The Dongping Palace's hand was secretly planted in the north of the town, and there was absolutely no exception in Xichuan Ding. Which of these people around him now are loyal to Xichuan? Which are Dongping's fine works?

King Xichuan looked at the familiar faces of the generals around him, but at this time he was a little more unfamiliar. (hua.advertisement)

King Xichuan only felt a chill in his heart, and secretly vigilant, after returning to Xichuan after this battle, he must investigate the origin of these generals, especially those who have little burden in the family, and focus on the investigation.

King Dongping did not pay attention to the careful thoughts of King Xichuan, and his mind was all on the hourglass at this time.

It is not advisable to immediately pursue the Zhenbei Army now.

If he was Sima Xiao, he would definitely leave the army behind. If you cross the river at this time and alarm Sima Xiao, who has not gone far, Sima Xiao is likely to choose to return to help and continue to defend according to Lushui. After all, compared to being caught up by the Dongping Army and fighting a decisive battle on the plain, it is more certain that the Zhenbei Army, which now occupies an absolute weakness in terms of troops, is still defending Lushui.

Therefore, it is necessary to wait until most of the Zhenbei Army is far enough away from Lushui and can no longer catch up with the reinforcements, which is the best time for the Dongping Army to attack.

At that time, even if Sima Xiao reacted, he would be helpless.

The back road had been cut off by them, and Sima Xiao had no choice but to speed up the march and advance according to the plan.

But no matter how fast the Zhenbei army marches, after all, the base number of people is there, and no matter how fast it is, it is limited. When the time comes, he only needs to send 'elite' soldiers to catch up with the large army of the Zhenbei Army, harass them, slow down their march, and wait until the large army led by him arrives, which is the end of the Zhenbei Army.

The predictable victory is at hand.

Where can the king of Dongping take care of anything else? I just hope the hourglass goes faster, faster. It's just that the more anxious a person is, the slower time seems to pass. Every minute and every second is torment for King Dongping. It's just a few hours, but for King Dongping, it seems like a lifetime has passed.

Finally, the time has come!

The sword of the king of Dongping pointed due north.

"Let's go!"

"Cross the river!"

The Dongping coalition army began to cross the river.

This time, as always, they encountered resistance from the Zhenbei Army. It's just that, compared to the previous frontal battles on the river, this time, the Zhenbei Army barely made any sorties. The Dongping coalition army did not encounter the dense rockets of the Zhenbei army until it was within the range of the bow and arrow.

Some of the unlucky ships had too many arrows in them to put out the fire, and they burned brightly on the river.

Some of the soldiers were hit by arrows and fell into the river one after another.

Compared with the Zhenbei Army, which has bunkers on the shore, the Dongping Coalition Army on the river is undoubtedly the best target. They said that one rocket after another was mercilessly 'fired' at the Dongping coalition army.

The Dongping coalition army also fought back, but their position was very unfavorable, although they also caused some damage to the Zhenbei army on the shore, but compared to the damage caused by the Zhenbei army to the Dongping coalition army, it was nothing.

The battle gradually became 'fierce'.

The king of Dongping smiled.

Their intelligence is not wrong, the Zhenbei Army has indeed withdrawn, otherwise, they would not have been put here to block the attack. As long as most of them evacuated, the current resistance to the king of Dongping was not taken into account. With the few people left, it is absolutely impossible to prevent them from landing.

And as long as they landed on the north bank, the Zhenbei army would be finished.

"Rush me!"

"The first one to go ashore will have his military merits increased by five times, and he will be rewarded with one hundred taels of silver!"

Under the order of the king of Dongping, the voice of the herald sounded in the ears of every soldier of the Dongping coalition army, and suddenly, the soldiers went crazy. One hundred taels of silver, that's enough for the average person to live for several years! Ships braved a rain of arrows to move forward, and most of them finally burned and sank into the water. But there were ships that eventually made it through the rain of arrows and reached the north shore. Although the soldiers left behind by the Zhenbei Army desperately resisted, the first and second ships ......

More and more ships docked, and the soldiers on board jumped ashore and pounced on the Zhenbei army who were 'shooting' arrows.

By this time, the war had moved from the water to the shore!

And this also means that the deer water will not be able to hold it.

"Finally I found it for them."

The scout's information was sent back to Sima Xiao, who was marching, and Sima Xiao sighed, very regretful.

Originally, I hoped that things would not go in the worst direction, and that they would be able to get out of it smoothly, as long as they rushed to Xiaoshan, they would be fine.

Now it seems impossible.

"Tell the whole army, speed up!"

Sima Xiao ordered, with a worried look in his eyes, hoping not to catch up with the Dongping coalition army. The situation is just too bad for them.

The march of the Zhenbei army increased again.

But no matter how fast it is, how can it be faster than the Dongping 'elite' soldiers who everyone rides horses? The Zhenbei Army is a large force, no matter how fast, it is very limited.

The Dongping 'elite' soldiers led by Xiang Yan did not have so many scruples.

All they need to do is catch up with the northern army, and then 'riot' them and slow them down.

The arrangement left by Sima Xiao did not drag on for too long, and soon, Xiang Yan broke through the last line of defense, and quickly caught up with the Zhenbei army led by Sima Xiao.

At this point, it was late at night. A bright moon in the sky. Most of the people in Anxin City have fallen asleep.
