A day later, Liu Zheng's army approached the territory of Wucheng County from the side of Shazihu, and the news from Zhou Cang said that the men and horses led by Yan Xing had secretly hid after leaving the city.

An army of 20,000 people is not so easy to hide, Zhou Cangduo sent out a part of the fine work, and under the search with ulterior motives, he still found the whereabouts of these people.

On an official road connecting Shazi Lake to Taihu Lake, there is a mountain wall, which is the only way to pass, and it is also a treacherous passage, which is rarely walked, after all, there are more waterways, and there are fewer merchants on land.

In the valley of this mountain wall, Yan Xing led 20,000 people, ambushed here, and prepared a day in advance, boulders, rolling logs, waiting for Liu Zheng's army to arrive, cut off Liu Zheng's back road, and then fight with Liu Zheng here to fight for life and death.

If it is, everything is normal, according to Yan Xing's plan, it is indeed relying on the terrain, Yan Xing and the others are here, it is enough to wipe out Liu Zheng's soldiers and horses.

Even if you can't kill all of Liu Zheng's soldiers and horses, at least you can make these people around Liu Zheng suffer heavy losses, and it is best to kill Liu Zheng, so that Yan Baihu's crisis will be solved.

It's a pity that Yan Xing and the others plotted here had already been noticed by Liu Zheng in advance.

Liu Zhengming knew that Yan Xing led 20,000 soldiers and horses to be stationed here, and still let Zhou Cang lead people into this canyon, while on the other side, Liu Zheng's headquarters of 10,000 soldiers and horses bypassed this canyon and walked through the mountain walls on both sides.

As long as Yan Xing leads his men and horses to kill Zhou Cang's vanguard army, then Liu Zheng will lead people around the rear and kill from Yan Xing's rear, and then Yan Xing's back road can be blocked, although in this way, Zhou Cang's soldiers and horses will also be in danger, but Zhou Cang's men and horses are mostly sword and shield hands, and their offensive ability is insufficient, but their defensive ability is indeed extremely strong.

As long as Zhou Cang defends the most critical moment and waits for Liu Zheng to lead the army to come, then everything will be settled.

Liu Zheng's plan did not arouse Yan Xing's awareness, because when Zhou Cang led Liu Zheng's vanguard troops to rush over, four thousand soldiers and horses had already attracted Yan Xing's attention, because Zhou Cang's people were rushing with a long dragon team, three or five people in a faction, four thousand people, and there was also a long period, at the critical moment, Yan Xing did not find at a glance that the number of people here in Zhou Cang was not enough.

It's just that when he saw Zhou Cang and these people, holding the banner of Liu Zheng's army, he concluded that this was Liu Zheng's soldiers and horses, and after seeing Zhou Cang and others enter the ambush circle, Yan Xing's whole person became excited, and where did he pay attention to so many things.

After confirming that there were no soldiers and horses in the rear, Yan Xing directly gave an order and ordered the men and horses hiding on the mountain walls on both sides to attack.

Immediately, the soldiers and horses that were dormant on the ground immediately stood up, and at the same time pushed the hidden stones, or directly lifted the large stones and threw them down the mountain.

The rocks rolled, exploded like thunder, and fell from a high altitude, which immediately attracted the attention of the Zhou Cang army passing through the valley.

In fact, even if there were no of these boulder rolling logs falling from the mountain walls on both sides, Zhou Cang knew that Yan Xing had set up an ambush here.

It's just that he didn't show it, and after the enemy troops on both sides attacked, Zhou Cang immediately ordered his soldiers to move closer to the cliffs on both sides, and not to stand in the middle of the road and wait for the enemy to attack.

Because these soldiers and horses have long been alert, after Zhou Cang gave the order. The response was very fast.

In the blink of an eye, they all dodged on the cliffs on both sides, although a small number of people were hit by the boulders that rolled down from both sides and died on the spot. But Zhou Cang, who was tasked with the task of luring Yan Xing, had no choice but to make some sacrifices.

Soon, the movement of stones rolling down on both sides of the cliff stopped, and the back road of Zhou Cang's army was also blocked by many stones. After Yan Xing's order, the army in front of Yan Xing began to rush down from the mountain frantically, intending to annihilate these enemy troops in front of them.

"Hit the plan, they hit the plan, brothers rush with me, destroy these enemies! As long as you kill Liu Zheng, I will reward you with a hundred taels! ”

Yan Xing looked at Liu Zhengjun on the official road, the formation that was smashed by the rocks broke up, and the soldiers and horses fled in all directions, and immediately became excited.

Shouting and ordering his men to rush towards the enemy in the canyon.

For a time, the sound of shouting and killing resounded through the heavens and the earth, and 20,000 soldiers and horses rushed to kill it, causing a sensation that caused birds to fly around.

The movements caused by the fighting can be imagined.

Liu Zheng was still rushing towards the cliffs on both sides, and suddenly when he heard this shouting and killing, he already knew that Yan Xing had made a move, and his expression immediately changed slightly.

"Wen Ping, hurry, it should be Yan Xing's guy who has done it, don't hide your body anymore, rush to the valley to support General Zhou Cang with all your might, if it's too late, I'm afraid that Zhou Cang's men and horses won't be able to resist!"

Liu Zheng immediately ordered all his horses to speed up and rush towards the hillside.

Although he has great confidence in Zhou Cang's soldiers and horses, he can hold out for a while among the 20,000 horses under Yan Xing, but after all, Yan Xing has 20,000 soldiers and horses, which is several times that of Zhou Cang, and Zhou Cang is still one of the ambushes.

Wen Ping also knew that Liu Zheng was not joking, so he immediately ordered to urge the soldiers and horses under his command to rush forward at full speed.

It only took ten minutes to come to Yan Xing, the place where he had been ambushed just now.

Looking through the high place and looking down the valley, Zhou Cang and Yan Xing's men and horses have already fought together, and more than half of the 4,000 Zhou Cang army has been killed and wounded, and has been surrounded by Yan Xing's 20,000 horses into a corner, still struggling to resist.

Liu Zheng saw that Zhou Cang's people had not been completely defeated by Yan Xing, and his heart also settled down a little.

"Brothers, kill me, all enemy troops, kill not a single one! Come on! ”

At this time, Liu Zheng did not have any mercy, and led his men and horses to kill him at the bottom of the mountain with his sword.

He took the lead, led his own personal battalion, and directly rushed towards Yan Xing's army.

As Liu Zheng led 10,000 horses out of the rear, the shouting of killing shook the sky, which immediately attracted the attention of Yan Xing and these water thieves on the battlefield.

They were still trying to find a way to besiege Zhou Cang, wanting to quickly resolve the battle, but they didn't expect that their back road would be blocked by other people.

Looking at the countless enemy soldiers who rushed down from the two mountainsides, Yan Xing, who was on the battlefield at this time, suddenly changed his face.

"What's going on? Why are there enemy centaurs in our rear? ”
