"Come on, gather your troops and horses, and follow me out of the customs to fight!" Seeing that the Taiping army was approaching the city, Li Ping, one of the guards of Ba County, immediately raised his voice and shouted, and then turned around to leave the city, but he didn't take Yan Yan, the top boss, in his eyes at all.

"No way!" Hearing this, Yan Yandang couldn't help but be shocked, and stopped in his mouth: "The Taiping thieves swept the world, it can be seen that it is extraordinary, and there are many thieves and soldiers, we were ordered to guard Ba County, and the responsibility is heavy, so we rushed to war, in case we lose Ba County, what face do we have to go to see the lord?" ”

"Humph!" Li Ping was already displeased with Yan Yan, but seeing that Yan Yan dared to stop him at this moment, his face immediately sank, and he shouted angrily: "Yan Yan'er! If you are cowardly and afraid, don't bother me? The so-called Taiping thieves are, at best, just a group of farmers with weapons, no matter how many there are, what is there to fear? Besides, when they first arrived, it was when they were weak and weak, and we didn't go out to meet the battle, wouldn't we miss the fighter? ”

"No way!" Yan Yan said that he refused to agree, although he had not had any confrontation with the Taiping army before, but, seeing that the army under the city was growing, it was by no means comparable to the original Yellow Turban thief, besides, others did not know Li Ping's ability, but Yan Yan was very clear in his heart, let him lead the troops to fight with the Taiping army, but he was afraid that it was no different from going to death.

However, as a veteran, Yan Yan also knows the truth that beating people does not slap their faces, and scolding people does not expose their shortcomings, so he did not directly say that Li Ping is not good, but just shook his head and dissuaded: "Ba County is an important gateway to Yizhou, we must be cautious, don't forget, I am the guard of Ba County, you Li Ping is just a deputy general, if you are willing to obey orders, otherwise it will be a violation of military orders, be careful of my military law!" ”

"Yan Yan Lao'er, don't bully me!" Hearing this, Li Ping couldn't help but be furious about Yan Yan's words. Instead of being afraid, he shouted loudly: "Don't use your position to pressure me, don't forget, I came to this county on the orders of Lord Jia!" What Lord Jia said to you that day. You don't remember everything, do you? Although you are the chief general and I am the deputy general, I must be the master of all matters in the military affairs of Ba County! Yan Yan Lao'er! Now you want to disobey Lord Jia's words? Do you have the guts to do this?! ”

"You-" Although Yan Yan moved out of the military law, it was a pity. Li Ping obviously didn't buy it, and he also moved out of Jia Long's name, now he really has no choice, Jia Long's identity is far higher than him, and Li Ping is Jia Long's henchman, if he wants to offend Li Ping, then Li Ping will definitely slander in front of Jia Long afterwards, he has lost Liu Yan's trust, if he offends Jia Long again, although Yizhou is big. But there is no place for himself!

The thoughts in his heart rolled, and after half a ring, Yan Yan finally chose to compromise, took a deep breath, and sighed: "Since you insist on going out to fight, then I will also fight together, if you refuse to agree, then even if Lord Jia is here today, I will not answer." ”

This is already Yan Yan's last bottom line, if Li Ping still refuses to agree. That Yan Yan could only take the risk of offending Jia Long and forcibly stop Li Ping. After all, it is obvious that the latter's sin is greater than that of offending Jia Long and losing Ba County.

"This ......," Li Ping hesitated for a moment. After all, he took a step back, and snorted coldly in his mouth: "It's okay, you can follow if you want, but I warn you, don't spoil my good deeds, otherwise don't blame me for suing you in front of Lord Jia in the future." You'll have what you can get when the time comes! ”

To tell the truth, in fact, Li Ping really didn't want to agree to Yan Yan's request, in his opinion, Yan Yan clearly wanted to share his own credit.

However, in the final analysis, Yan Yan is still his boss after all, even if he has Jia Long's support, if he really matches, he will not have an advantage, so he has no choice but to take a step back.

Outside the city, Wei Yan and Gan Ning don't know about the things in the city, they are dispatching soldiers, stepping up the preparation of siege equipment, once the battle fails, they will forcibly attack the city, although the city wall of Ba County is high, but after all, it is not as good as the Tiger Prison of Bishui, with the combat power of the Taiping army, it may not be impossible to forcibly take it.

It's just that, in this way, even if the city is captured, the casualties will probably not be small, it is a matter of the next step, Wei Yan and Gan Ning are preparing for the siege of the city, while thinking about how to use the plan, of course, the most labor-saving thing is to hope that the other party can take the initiative to go out of the city, it is really better.

Perhaps, today is really a lucky day for the two of them, they have discussed for a long time, and they have not come up with a definite siege method, they are distressed, unexpectedly, at this moment, suddenly heard a "squeak" sound in front of them, and in a blink of an eye, they saw that the tall city gate of Bajun was slowly opening.

Leaving 5,000 soldiers to defend the city, Yan Yan and Li Ping led 15,000 troops, pouring out from the city gate, forming a solid military formation in front of the city, and the general before the battle, Li Ping, who was originally a deputy general, should be standing behind Yan Yan, but this Li Ping had to take a step forward on his horse, standing side by side with Yan Yan, and even faintly exceeded Yan Yan.

For Li Ping's transgressive behavior, although Yan Yan was extremely annoyed in his heart, he was also helpless, so he could only act as if he didn't see anything, the Taiping Army in front of him was rigorous, it was not trivial, he had to fight with 120,000 points of spirit, as for Li Ping, he couldn't be distracted for a long time.

Seeing that the enemy army really came out of the city to greet him, Wei Yan couldn't help but smile, and immediately took a few steps forward and shouted: "The Han family has no way, and the people are not happy, and now the Taiping army is rising up and will overthrow the tyranny of the Han Dynasty. ”

"Bold thief!" Originally, Yan Yan stepped forward to reply, but Li Ping took the first step, raised a long knife, pointed at Wei Yan from afar, and shouted: "It is clear that you are waiting for the Taiping thieves to ignore the king's law and disturb the world, only to the world is in chaos, and the people are not happy, and now you dare to come to Yizhou, see me take you!" With that, he clamped his legs, urged the sit-down war horse to gallop, and rushed straight to Wei Yan.

Seeing that the enemy general was attacking without saying a word, Wei Yan couldn't help but be stunned, he was about to raise his knife to meet the enemy, but he might as well shout next to Gan Ning: "If you dare to speak wildly, I will kill you!" Immediately, he urged the horse forward, swept past Wei Yan, and attacked him.

Li Ping's target was originally Wei Yan, but he didn't expect that another general would greet him, which immediately made him feel insulted, and he was even more angry in his heart, and he couldn't help shouting "Wow Ya Ya" in his mouth, and immediately increased his horsepower, and rushed directly to Gan Ning's face in one breath.

Gan Ning snorted coldly in his mouth, turned over his hand, raised the knife in his hand, and the battle qi broke out instantly, and the wind and clouds changed color in an instant, and the blade was horizontal, cutting through the void ravine, and blocking it directly in front of him.

"Sonorous!" A sharp and piercing sound of gold and iron clashing erupted, the blades burst out, and countless dazzling sparks were sparked, splashing in all directions, and the escaping power flew away, rolling around the sand and gravel on the ground, and for a while the smoke and dust filled the sky, blocking the line of sight, making it difficult for people to see.

After half a ring, as the dust and smoke gradually dissipated, whether it was Li Ping or Gan Ning, the two of them were frozen in place with their men and horses.

Li Ping slashed down with all his might, vowing to kill Gan Ning with a knife, but the blade that fell was blocked by Gan Ning's horizontal knife, obviously only a few inches away from Gan Ning's head, but no matter how desperately Li Ping tried his strength, he was never able to cut the blade off.

Gan Ning sneered to himself, and a cold light flashed in his eyes, which made Li Ping feel an inexplicable sense of fear spreading throughout his body!

"The tone is quite big, but the ability is not very good? It's really disappointing. With a disdainful cold snort in his mouth, the battle qi on Gan Ning's body burst out, and suddenly a strong burst exploded, and the blade trembled, directly shaking Li Pingsheng back a few steps, and then, the knife light appeared, and a blow fell, cutting through the wind and clouds, with a sharp and piercing air roar, and went straight to Li Ping's vital point......
