"General, look."

One of the soldiers pointed in one direction and shouted.

Hu Zhibing turned around and looked, only to see in the distance, a red light, it is late at night, there is only one reason that can cause such a scene, and that is the fire.

"General, looking at the direction of the fire, it seems that Yang Daolin, the right minister, is there."

The lieutenant will give a reminder next to him.

Hearing this, Hu Zhibing's face suddenly changed slightly, and he was about to order someone to be sent to check, when a rapid sound of horses' hooves suddenly sounded in the distance, and a cavalryman galloped over.

"General Qiyu, Yan Yi led the army to attack suddenly, the offensive is very fierce, we are about to lose our hold."

When the cavalry came closer, he turned over and dismounted, half-knelt on the ground, and said sharply with his fists clenched.

Hu Zhibing's face suddenly became extremely ugly, Yan Yi led the army to attack suddenly, and chose that place, don't think about it, he wants to rescue the trapped right minister Yang Daolin, Yang Daolin alone is not terrible, what is terrible is that once Yang Daolin gets out of trouble, there is Yan Yi's army in his hands, and when the time comes, it is very likely to cause a chain reaction, if this is the case, it will be a big trouble.

"How many people are on the other side?"

"At least seven thousand."

The adjutant general exclaimed: "Impossible, Yuwen Zhen's headquarters is at most five thousand, where did Yan Yi get seven thousand?" ”

"Nothing is impossible."

Hu Zhibing said coldly: "It seems that Li Xun was not killed, and it is very likely that he successfully escaped to the inspection yard." ”

Hu Zhibing is indeed a very clever general, although it is just a guess, but he already has seventy percent certainty in his heart, that is, Li Xun is afraid that he has controlled the military power of the inspection institute, and joined forces with Yan Yi, so that the two sides add up to nearly 10,000 soldiers, which has exceeded the strength he deployed in the city.

Right Prime Minister Yang Daolin deployed 1,000 soldiers there, and Li Zhong had 4,000 soldiers here, adding up to 5,000, and the contrast between the two sides was still huge.

Hu Zhibing immediately ordered the soldiers on the left and right: "You immediately go to other urban districts, pass on my orders, and everyone gather at the mansion of Li Zhong, the left prime minister in the city." ”

Hu Zhibing hesitated for a while, and finally sent two personal soldiers to the imperial city, informed the news here, and left the deputy general, and after the troops from other urban areas arrived and gathered, he immediately led the troops to kill the right minister Yang Daolin neighborhood.

After doing all this, Hu Zhibing immediately ordered 2,000 soldiers, personally led the team, and went to Yang Daolin to support.

The adjutant general was puzzled: "General, why do you only bring two thousand people?" The other party has a full 7,000, you can take everyone away, I only have 500 people left. ”

Hu Zhibing sneered: "You are really an idiot, you can't add or subtract simply?" Yan Yi has 5,000 people in his hands, not to mention the number of inspectors, there must be 4,000, Yang Daolin's side is only 7,000 now, where did the rest go? ”

"What does the general mean is that the other party wants to attack Li Zhong here?"

The lieutenant gasped and finally understood.

"The brothers from other urban areas will arrive soon, since the other party is here to raid, the army will not be too much, you have two thousand people, enough, remember, Li Zhong must not be rescued by them, if there is any problem, I want your head."

Hu Zhibing didn't have time to talk nonsense with him, so he finally explained, then ordered two thousand soldiers and hurried to Yang Daolin.

Li Xun lay on the roof and looked not far away, where was Li Zhong's mansion.

Jiang Daxiong, Yan Yi, Zhu Zhengguo and others were also on the side, and Hu Zengsi and Hua Shaosheng were not lightly injured and stayed in the inspection courtyard and did not follow.

"Why are there so many people, don't you say there are only 4,000 people here?"

Yan Yi said with some puzzlement, in his opinion, Yang Daolin's side was attacked by 7,000 people, and the other party would definitely transfer most of the troops to the rescue, but now that he observed, the other party only transferred half of the people at most, and left 2,000 people to guard around Li Zhong's mansion, and on his side, he brought 2,000 people over, which was equivalent to the number of the other party, and the surprise plan seemed to be about to fail.

Zhu Zhengguo said softly: "The other party is equal to our strength, and it seems that a quick decision is not possible, so it is better to go back to Yang Daolin's side and solve the matter there first." ”

"It's too late."

Zou Meng said in a deep voice: "The reason why Zhao Ke was able to control the forbidden army was mainly due to the two generals of the forbidden army, one is An Guoqing, and the other is Hu Zhibing, the former is not worth mentioning, the latter is very powerful, very strategic and courageous, and has a high prestige in the forbidden army. ”

Li Xun looked at Zou Meng and asked in a deep voice, "What do you mean when you say it's too late?" ”

Zou Meng said: "Hu Zhibing may have ordered the forbidden army soldiers from other cities to go to Li Zhong, if we return to Yang Daolin, come and go, and wait for the battle over there to end, it will be at least half an hour later, when the forbidden army soldiers from other cities arrive, we are trying to rescue Li Zhong, I am afraid it will be difficult to do." ”

After listening to Zou Meng's analysis, Li Xun's heart suddenly sank, what he said was very reasonable, what he needed most now was time, Zhao Ke's side would definitely solve everything before dawn, and at that time, if he hadn't organized enough counterattack forces, then everything would be over.

Moreover, up to now, the other two armies of the forbidden army outside the city still have no movement, which shows that they are also unreliable, and now they can only rely on Li Xun himself.

The most important thing is that Li Xun thought of a possibility, if it really comes to a critical moment, Hu Zhibing may choose to kill Yang Daolin to prevent future troubles, but Li Zhong, he may not dare to poison him, compared with the two, now return to Yang Daolin's side, even if he defeats Hu Zhibing, he may not be able to save Yang Daolin, and he may be a dead person if he is rescued.

"Fight, prepare to attack."

Li Xun gave the order to attack very decisively.

"I'm going to deploy an attack."

Zou Meng glanced at Li Xun appreciatively and prepared to leave.

Li Xun grabbed him and said in a deep voice: "Tell everyone that if you can't beat each other within a quarter of an hour, all of us will be finished." ”

Zou Meng smiled and said arrogantly: "Don't worry, I will take the lead in the charge, and I won't be able to take the other party within a quarter of an hour, and I will die first." ”

With that, Zou turned around and jumped off the roof.

Li Xun looked at Zou Meng's back and sighed: "At a critical moment, I saw that the warriors were unparalleled. ”

Yan Yi said proudly: "These 5,000 people were trained by my father-in-law, all of them have experienced a hundred battles, and none of them are of a bad race. ”
