"Ah......h

The screams sounded, and a Chu soldier who was fighting at the front saw his comrades being knocked to the ground, and his heart was filled with sadness.

At the same time, the Rui soldier on the opposite side had already slashed at him with his sword.

Both sides looked at each other, their faces full of fatigue.

With a "dang" sound, the long knives intersected.

A spear stabbed up behind the Chu soldier, and a comrade stabbed the Narui soldier down. But at the same time, the Chu soldiers in front were also stabbed in the arm.

The knife fell to the ground, and he wanted to lean down to pick it up, but fear was already in his mind...... "It's over." ”

The next moment, the war drums rang out, and the earth shook faintly.

The sound of a horseshoe on the ground came with great power.

"Charge!"

Chu Bing didn't turn his head, but he could feel the momentum behind him.

For a moment, this momentum inspired him to give him confidence in victory, he quickly leaned down and picked up his knife, no one cut him, he swung his knife at Ruibing, and found that the other party was taking a step back in a bit of panic.

"Kill!"

The morale of the Chu army was boosted and they rushed forward to kill.

On both flanks, the cavalry of the cavalry battalion had rushed into battle......

~~

Tang Jie opened his mouth.

"Damn, it's a step too late."

On the battlefield, there is often only a momentary opportunity to press key forces at which point in time.

If it is too early, it can't form a big advantage, and when the opponent's follow-up forces press up, and there are no chips on your side, it is doomed to defeat.

But if it's too late, if the other party rushes the soldiers on their side first, then no matter how many chips are left, they won't be able to return to the sky.

Originally, Tang Jie's troops were superior, and he could fight more calmly. It's a pity that the uneasiness in his heart made him want to keep more chips, so the psychological bearing of the soldiers in front of him was also pushed to the limit by him.

He is confident that he can beat Wang Xiao in grasping this opportunity.

Unexpectedly, Chu Qi crashed into the Ruijun formation without hesitation......

It was like a giant hammer slamming into the earthen wall, and in an instant the crack spread...... The Swiss army is on the verge of collapse.

"The cavalry of the old battalion pressed up!" Tang Jie yelled.

The next moment, he realized that he had another oversight. 10,000 old battalion cavalry were transferred 5,000......

"Pass on my military order, those who dare to retreat will be killed!"

Tang Jie kept giving orders, and pressed more infantry of the Chinese army on it.

The five thousand cavalry on both flanks slowly ran, looking for directions and trying to break into the battlefield. But because they were one step behind Chu Qi, they had already lost their most advantageous point of attack.

"They have no more troops, they are not allowed to retreat, this battle will be won!"

The blood vessels on his forehead twitched, and Tang Jie gasped slightly.

The next moment, Li Baibo muttered: "Wang Xiao has no other arrangements, he just wants to defeat us on the frontal battlefield......"

Tang Jie was stunned for a moment, and anger instantly surged into his heart.

"Shameless!"

~~

"What kind of person is Tang Jie?"

The night before yesterday, Wang Xiao asked Chen Yuanyuan.

"I don't know him very well."

Chen Yuanyuan sat down, looked up at the starry sky outside the tent, and said slowly: "Although I followed the master to the rebel army, the master said that I was a stupid person, I had no talent, and he didn't teach me a lot......

That year just defected to the past, the rebels were still running around, there was no meal, there were people in the army who wanted to bully our masters and apprentices, Tang Jie also helped to stop them, and he was also grateful to him at that time. But he said that we would not fight, and that it would be a drag to keep it, so why should we share the food of the soldiers under his command...... I also think this man is acting willfully.

Once, he was chased and killed by officers and soldiers, and the big guy ran away. Tang Jie wanted to leave us, Qianqian fought with him, and later he went to the big boss to complain, and the big boss punished him, and then he was polite to us. Occasionally, when something happens, he will come out and come out. That was many years ago. ”

Wang Xiao asked again, "Why don't you want to go back to the rebels?" ”

"I'm different from Qianqian, her home is there. As for the few of us, it doesn't matter if they're dead. It's just that Qianqian protects me, so I can live longer. Chen Yuanyuan lowered his head and smiled, and said: "In my opinion, there are some good people in the rebel army, such as Qianqian, Brother Tang, Mr. Li, and Sister Xiaoshuang, about half of the third brother Tang is considered a good person, and I don't know the others, and more of them think about burning and looting every day...... Brother Tang, Mr. Li, sometimes they can't stop them, and they will feel very distressed. If I hadn't met Master and Qianqian, I might have been like those who were plundered by them......"

Probably because I felt that I was talking too much and was too far from the topic. She stroked her hair a little embarrassed, turned her head to look at Wang Xiao, and saw that the other party was quite patient.

"The reason why Tang Sange is half a good person, he is very good to everyone he knows, but he is also really fierce. I don't know anything else. By the way, I also heard one thing from him, which was said by Huazhi...... When the big leader didn't have an accident, Tang Jie looked like he was three or four years old, and the big leader and Brother Tang wanted to go to the market and didn't want to take him there. Brother Tang lied to him and said that he was playing hide and seek, and when he hid in a hut, Brother Tang locked the door. Tang Jie was locked up in the house for a day and a night, so if anyone dared to lie to him afterwards, he would be furious......"

"Huh?" Wang Xiao suddenly captured something.

No wonder this Tang Jie refused to be fooled, it turned out that he was too afraid of being deceived......

He pondered for a long time, and then asked Chen Yuanyuan, "Can Miss Chen help me write a letter?" In your master's handwriting...... Well, Qianqian said that this is your basic skill......"

Chen Yuanyuan hesitated a little, lowered his head and didn't answer for a long time.

"Well, it's not good to let you help over there, so forget it." Wang smiled.

"Can Huai Yuanhou promise me one thing?"

"Huh?"

"If one day the officers and soldiers win the battle, can you let them go...... Master......"

This is clearly not a reciprocal deal.

But Wang Xiao responded: "Even if you don't say it, I don't plan to kill them or something." ”

"What do you want to write about Huaiyuanhou?"

……

After a while, Chen Yuanyuan put down his pen, and Wang Xiao blew the ink.

"Thank you for your hard work, Miss Chen."

"How do you plan to deliver this letter to the Tang Festival camp?" Chen Yuanyuan thought for a moment and asked again.

The king smiled and said, "Send someone to send it." ”

He knew that if he sent someone to send it again, he would still be killed by an arrow. But as long as someone in the Swiss army searches for the body, the letter will still fall into Tang Jie's hands sooner or later, and a second person can be sent at that time......

Chen Yuanyuan suddenly said, "I'll send it." ”

Although she couldn't save the lives of many people on the battlefield, she felt that it was worth it to lose one innocent person on one trip.

"Huh?"

"If Huaiyuan Marquis can trust me, I can send this letter."

If you want to believe it or not, Wang Xiao actually would rather Chen Yuanyuan not believe it - if she can betray herself, it means that she can still win the trust of Tang Jie, and it just so happens that she can make a move to push the boat.

"Good. As long as Tang Jie thinks that I am still hiding my back hand, as long as he starts to guess, the more he can't guess, the more panicked he becomes. He panicked, and we had a little more chance of defeating him head-on. ”

Chen Yuanyuan was slightly stunned when he saw Wang Xiao answer so frankly.

What she was quite puzzled about was that she had obviously used the trick first, why could she still be called 'upright'?

~~

"Shameless!"

On the battlefield, Tang Jie roared angrily, so angry that his hands trembled a little.

was angry that the king laughed at himself, and angry that he was distracted in the end, and even more angry that the other party was so arrogant that he wanted to defeat him on the battlefield......

With this roar, Tang Jie picked up his long lance and jumped off the battle platform and straddled his horse.

"All the soldiers obey the order! Charge, defeat them! ”

The lance was raised high, and the war drums were beating......

~~

"It's coming, it's coming. They're about to be crushed......"

Qin Xuance muttered, his whole hand shaking.

He has already sent all the troops of the Chu army, if he can't defeat the other party in a short time, and when more soldiers and horses from Tang Jie press up, the Chu army is doomed to defeat.

This battle is a decisive battle, and his chance of victory is only for this moment.

He looked over and saw that Qin Shanhu and Geng Dang led the two wings of cavalry on the battlefield to collide in the midst of the rebels, causing a panic.

The rebels are already on the verge of collapse.

"Close, close......"

The next moment, only listening to the war drums in the Swiss army, all the Swiss troops who did not play slowly moved forward.

"The handsome man will win! A big win is a sure victory......"

The Swiss army fighting on the battlefield was inspired, and the soldiers who were about to flee rekindled their last blood bravery, gritted their teeth and continued to persevere.

Seeing this scene, Qin Xuance's face turned pale in an instant, he turned his head to look at Wang Xiao and muttered, "We are defeated......"

The next moment, Wang laughed and shouted: "Guard the camp, press up." ”

"Yes."

With these words, Wang Xiao turned around and got off the battle platform and stepped onto the war horse.

At the same time, the guard camp slowly moved away, and Emperor Yanguang, who was dressed in gold armor, was surrounded out.

"Soldiers of the Chu Dynasty, Your Majesty and you will kill the enemy side by side, and there is no retreat today!"

There was a loud roar, and the shouts rippled layer by layer.

"Your Majesty and we will fight side by side! Kill! ”

"Long live my emperor......"

Emperor Yanguang's face was extremely complicated, staring at Wang Xiao, with anger, helplessness, pathos, and determination on his face......

He slowly drew his sword and pointed to the sky.

"I live and die with all the kings, kill!"

Wang Xiao felt that Emperor Yanguang's 'kill' was a bit broken, and he felt a little funny when he saw Emperor Yanguang's trembling throat. But no one felt it except him.

Chu Jun was already immersed in the excitement of being carried away, and roared wildly.

Even if these soldiers lived the lowest life and were driven like lackeys by those in power, they would occasionally scold the emperor in their hearts. But when the emperor and high-ranking officials stood beside them, they still felt an incomparable excitement.

The blind cult of power transcends everything in this moment. There was no need for more mobilization, their morale was so high that the shouts of the Swiss army were completely drowned out......

"Kill!"

A group of ministers of the Chu Dynasty also rode horses and swords, following behind Emperor Yanguang. The chubby Wu Pei was mixed in, and he couldn't help but think that if his stone with 'Chu Xing' written on it could be eaten by Huaiyuan Hou, his morale would be even better now......

"It's a pity that the roast pig ......"

~~

Tang Jie stepped off the war horse and only walked two steps, when he suddenly heard a long shout behind him.

"Newspaper~"

"Handsome! General Li reported to Linqing urgently......"

Tang Jie was stunned for a moment, turned his head to look, and saw that the messenger was disgraced.

A trace of bad premonition instantly surfaced in Tang Jie's heart.

"Li Hongji captured Linqing?"

"Dashuai, after Dashuai set off, the Linqing garrison attacked General Li's camp at night...... They burned the grain and grass. Dezhou City sent troops to support, and General Li was defeated and led his troops to withdraw to Yizhou......"

Tang Jie opened his mouth, and his voice was suddenly drowned out by the huge cheers in the distance.

"Living and dy......ing with Your Majesty"

The overwhelming roar of the Chu army was muffled, and on the battlefield ahead, the Swiss army, which had been fighting for a day, no longer had the intention of waiting for their comrades to come to support, and turned to flee backwards.

The rout came so abruptly, beyond Tang Jie's imagination.

Even before the elite cavalry of his old battalion was on the field, the Swiss front that had been held to the limit collapsed in an instant......

Because of conceit, because of scruples, because of negligence...... The battle was decided in an instant in a way that he was caught off guard.

Tang Jie looked up at the battlefield from afar, feeling that his pride had been shattered.

"It's ......"

After a moment, he shook his head and smiled.

"It's good that I was defeated once, it's kind of interesting."

~~

Qin Xuance sat down on the battle platform.

The moment he saw the line of the Swiss army spread, ecstasy swelled up, and he didn't know what to do for a while.

The setting sun dragged his figure long behind him.

He looked at the setting sun and asked in a low voice, "Grandfather, father, have you seen it?" I can be a handsome person...... You're all underestimating me. ”

The sunset is silent. Qin Xuance burst into tears for a moment.

He wiped his face with the back of his hand and scolded, "Why are you stunned?!" Ordered to catch up, damn it, what should they do if they hold their ground......"

~~

Li Baibo sat down on the battle platform.

The moment he saw the line of the Swiss army spread, a huge sense of frustration came over him, and he couldn't stand.

The setting sun reflected on him, casting a shadow in front of him.

With the setting sun behind him, he muttered, "Am I incompetent?" ”

Someone from under the arena rode up and shouted, "Come down." ”

Li Baibo turned his head to look, only to see that it was Tang Xiaoshuang.

"Look, come down. It's not the first time you've lost ......."

~~

Emperor Yanguang held the long sword, and his face became more and more complicated.

It's really easy to be proud of going into battle to win the game in one fell swoop.

But he understands that the so-called royal driving campaign to boost morale is the role of a moment and a half, and today is actually a good time for Wang Xiao......

What makes people happy, when you think about it, becomes unworthy of being happy. He felt more and more that life was boring.

~~

Tang Jie saw the rout rushing towards this side, gritted his teeth, and shouted: "Go north!" ”

He still personally led the troops to break the rear, calmly and calmly gathered the rout, avoiding more unnecessary casualties. He even sought to stabilize his position and tried to kill Emperor Chu.

However, over there, Qin Shanhu and Geng Dang had joined forces, driving the rout troops and constantly pressing towards the main force of Tang Jie. As long as Tang Jie dared to stop, there would be a rout to disperse his array.

"Run from both sides! Those who dare to rush into battle will be killed! ”

The incessant yelling made the rout stabilize their minds a little, and it was indeed not the first time they had lost, and they had deep trust in their commander, and subconsciously ran to both sides.

Tang Jie finally had a little respite and reorganized the array of the old camp under his command.

The next moment, Qin Shanhu and Geng Dang rushed up.

Needless to say, Qinshanhu caught up quickly, and the long knife in his hand slashed at Tang Jie.

The two sides fought for more than ten rounds, and Tang Jie was dragged by Qinshan Lake, and he could no longer regain the rout. After scolding, he ordered, "Withdraw!" ”

"Removal ......"

~~

Wang Xiao looked north of the horse, looking at the Swiss army heading north, and the blood and wounded people all over the ground silently.

He knew that the battle of the Swiss army to pursue Emperor Chu was finally over, and the other party had no food and grass to support them to continue the battle.

This year has been fighting and fighting, and he is really tired and tired.

"There will be a date later." He said in his heart to the distant Ruiqi......

Worried that the night would be long and dreamy, he directly ordered the cavalry not to pursue the Swiss army anymore, first escorted Emperor Yanguang to Jinan, and then arranged for Qin Xuance to lead the foot soldiers to clean up the battlefield and place the wounded soldiers into Zhangqiu City......

Marched overnight, and did not reach the east gate of Jinan until midnight.

The guerrilla general Xu Dian was promoted to the general of the Jinan garrison battalion as early as when Wang Xiao came to Jinan for the first time, and after the original general Jiang Juren 'escaped from prison', he had taken control of Jinan's city defense. After learning the news, he brought soldiers and horses and Jinan civil and military forces to greet him overnight.

"The last general is too late to save the car, please punish Your Majesty." Xu Dian kowtowed.

Emperor Yanguang didn't have the heart or ability to cure his crimes, so he waved his hand and sent it away at will.

Xu Dian was already panicked, and found an opportunity to find Wang Xiao in private and said, "Master Hou, the last general didn't get the news at the beginning, and he didn't know about the attack on the holy car. I only heard about the war two days ago, and I wanted to bring troops to help, but several adults were worried that it was a plan and opposed it with all their might......"

"I know, they were also lost by Jinan." Wang smiled.

Before Xu Dian could say anything more, Wang Xiao waved his hand.

"Now is not the time to say that. The safety of my father is the most important, and I have kept an eye on the city defense of Jinan. ”

"Yes......"

In the night, Wang Xiao looked at Jinan City and squinted.

He knew that there were people from Tang Zhongyuan, Zheng Yuanhua, and even the Manchu Qing Dynasty hidden in the city in front of him......

"Don't worry, I'll pull you out one by one sooner or later." He said in his heart.

This night, Wang Xiao was not in a hurry to let Emperor Yanguang enter the city, and only let Geng Dang be in charge of the imperial guards and protect Emperor Yanguang. It was only at dawn, as the sun slowly rose in the east, that he gave the order to enter the city.

Jinan officials have been preparing for half a night, and although the honor guard is not complete, it is also somewhat spectacular.

The people of Jinan knelt on both sides of the road to welcome the Son of Heaven into the city. The Xiao Huss army acted as a guard of honor, the golden dragon flag swayed, and the Great Chu Tianzi finally recovered some of his due specifications at this moment......

In order to prepare for the Son of Heaven to parade Mount Tai, Chu Ting has a palace in Jinan City, which is located on the south side of Daming Lake. The guard of honor circled around the city before slowly entering the palace.

This somewhat showy performance symbolizes that in this anti-thief turmoil, the Chu Dynasty has stabilized Shandong. In other words, this Tang Zhongyuan expedition only conquered Shanxi, North Zhili, and half of Henan.

Half an hour after entering the palace, Emperor Yanguang issued an edict announcing the world, blaming himself, making Jinan the capital of Xing, and establishing Zhou Yan, the king of Qi, as the crown prince to continue to supervise the country......

At this point, on the surface, the Chu Dynasty still has seven parts of the world......

~~

"Look, it's not that bad."

"This ......"

"We must let everyone know that the imperial court has stabilized and everything is developing in a good direction."

"Master Hou, can you allow me to go to the street first and buy a few pieces of oil swirl to eat? I didn't eat that day and night, and I had to go on official business...... It's ......."

"Huh?" Wang Xiao snorted coldly.

"Master Hou doesn't know about this? The oil is swirled, that is, the dough is rolled out, and then the oil is rolled out, and so on seven times, and the stove is burned, which is very beautiful......"
