Chapter 203: Bai Zan comes to help
Lu Zhenshan watched the fire raging, and his hand holding the blade trembled slightly. The one who can ignite the wall of fire must be the Xuanmen Array, and he should have expected that so many people in the Xuanmen will definitely have such means in the Cefu military camp.
Broken Xiu looked at it not far away, this magic circle was quite familiar, the fire barrier, and the people who arranged the formation also used wood attribute energy to strengthen it. He smiled indifferently, stood still, but his eyes were looking for the person who set up the formation, and after looking at it for a while, he faintly found that it was the kid who had met him before, and he said to himself again: "Guigu, Qimen, Chen Fan, your disciple is good." ”
The front camp road Zhenshan was blocked, and the rear camp Mu Yuzheng was also stopped by the fire lit by Zhang Kai, although the heavy shield sergeant had opened the way, but the cavalry of the Cefu continued to come forward to block, but there was no progress. And the pikemen who rushed in the early stage, seeing the fire behind them, immediately panicked and had been defeated. The front and back battles were not smooth, which made Lu Zhenshan angry, and it was estimated that the broken repair was on the side, and he wanted to show it, but it was difficult to move an inch with an advantage.
The fire can't burn for a long time, Mo Buyu, Sun Lin, Lin Pinghui and Lu Zhenshan all understand this truth, once the fire weakens, there will inevitably be a life-and-death struggle. The moment's brief pause may be in anticipation of a larger offensive. Lu Zhenshan ordered the whole army to stand by, and Mo Buyu and Lin Pinghui stepped up to integrate the sergeants to fight again.
Just when the two armies were facing each other across the fire. In the distance, the rebels of Yuzhang County and the Lincheng army were inseparable. Yu Nier commanded the sergeants to stop several charges by the rebels of Yuzhang County, and the casualties on both sides were somewhat heavy. Pan Lingqian didn't expect the opponent to be so resolute, he retreated, and at the same time estimated that more than 20,000 people under his support should rush to Wankou in the near future, and immediately ordered to withdraw the troops and return to the camp, and when they met with the backup, it was not too late to settle accounts with Yu Nier.
With the withdrawal of the rebels in Yuzhang County, Yu Nier did not chase and kill, and she led the army back to the camp. When Wang Pingyao saw Yu Nier coming back, his hanging heart finally let go, and he walked up quickly to inquire. Yu Nier patted his hand and said in a gentle tone: "Don't worry, I'm fine, I just went to lead the army to stop Pan Lingqian for a while." Cui Ji saw everything in his eyes, he didn't have so much hostility towards Yu Nier at the moment, and came up and said calmly: "Hard work Miss Yu, go back to the camp to rest, if there is another battle, I will send someone to inform." Yu Nier nodded and entered the camp with Wang Pingyao. After Cui Ji saw the two leave, he summoned the sergeant to hurry up to investigate the battle situation between the Sanshan Army and Cefu.
Sun Lin has been insisting on urging the fire barrier, and what he photographed on the board car is the dividing hexagram, with the help of the surrounding wood attribute energy, the detachment has been persisting for a long time. Beads of sweat oozed from Sun Lin's forehead, and his whole body trembled slightly. Wei Qingyue also came out of the camp, standing on the side and staring anxiously, looking distressed, but he didn't dare to rush forward for fear of affecting him.
Mo Buyu knew that Sun Lin was extremely expensive to urge this magic circle, so he could only ask the sergeants to step up their preparations, and the next thing they would face would definitely be a more fierce offensive. The sergeants hurriedly erected a large number of heavy shields in front of the battalion, and the spears behind the shields were firmly against the ground, while flying tiger claws, bows, and fire crossbows were all prepared. Seeing that the sergeants were busy, Mo Buyu and Lin Pinghui also understood that if Lu Zhenshan insisted on breaking the camp regardless of casualties, they would not last long.
The more Lu Zhenshan waited, the more anxious he became, and the sergeant sent to the rear camp hurried over, telling him that the rear camp was also stopped by the fire, he was immediately angry, pulled out his long sword, waved angrily, and the whole army raided, and at the same time assigned several teams of sergeants around him, desperately destroying the cart, and could no longer let its magic circle operate. Seeing this, the Sanshan army immediately charged towards the front camp, and ordered the sergeants to wait for the enemy to approach before firing their crossbows, but at the same time, they also found several groups of enemy troops rushing towards the cart. He knew that Lu Zhenshan was going to break the formation, but at this moment, the fire was raging, and it was difficult for them to go out and stop it.
When Sun Lin saw it on the side, he suddenly stopped, and said to Mo Bu: "Don't stop it, go all out to deal with the enemy army that is coming over." After that, he changed the hexagram seal in his hand several times, and the fire was still the same, but then several strong winds suddenly rose, and the wind helped the fire, and the fire faced the Sanshan Army frantically. Lu Zhenshan saw the change in the magic array, his brows tightened, and several teams of sergeants who went to destroy the board car were forced to retreat, and there were many casualties. The brigade that rushed to kill was also forced to retreat. Although the magic circle once again stopped the Sanshan Army, Sun Lin was also panting, he had reached the limit, and Wei Qingyue came up desperately and firmly supported him.
Mo Buyu and Lin Pinghui glanced at each other, Sun Lin's magic circle had reached the extreme, and then he could only rely on the sergeants to fight and resist. The two of them coincidentally walked to the front of the formation, Lin Pinghui shouted to the sergeant behind him: "Never retreat, this battle will not end, brothers, as soon as the fire is extinguished, let it go." Mo Bu didn't speak, he swung out a long sword, and the sword pointed the way to Zhenshan.
Zhang Kai and Mo Liu were in the back camp, Mu Hao was repeatedly organizing the sergeants to rush and kill, although Zhang Kai and the sergeant of Cefu were brave, they were unable to stop the enemy army like a tide, the fire was quickly extinguished in several places, the two armies were strangled together, Cefu retreated step by step, and was about to be forced back to the camp. Mo Liu and Zhang Kai were also surrounded by heavy surrounds, and it was difficult to stand out for a while.
Duan Xiu continued to watch, the wind helped the fire, and he looked at this Chen Fan's disciple again, thinking about how he would deal with it if he was in Lu Zhenshan's position. After waiting for a while, there was a sound of horses' hooves behind him, and he disappeared in an instant, and saw in the dark that it was the cavalry of Cefu who came. Duan Xiu sighed lightly, turned around and went back to Wankou City.
Bai Zan finally arrived when Cefu and the Jinfan army were in a battle to the death. He galloped all the way, and 30,000 sergeants came to support him in two teams. The first to arrive was 10,000 cavalry, led by them personally. He saw the fire in front of the tent of Cefu at a glance, and the secret path was not good, so he ordered to rush up. Although they were hurrying for several days, these cavalry did not stop at all, and 10,000 military horses galloped and rushed behind Lu Zhenshan.
Lu Zhenshan saw that a large group of cavalry came to help, and knew that it should be the reinforcements from Cefu who had arrived, and after weighing it again, he decided to withdraw his troops for the sake of the overall situation.
Before Bai Zan and his cavalry could rush, the Sanshan Army in the front battalion began to retreat. Mo Buyu and Lin Pinghui saw the retreat of the Sanshan Army, and at the same time, they also saw the cavalry coming to help, and they immediately breathed a sigh of relief. Lin Pinghui said: "It's finally down. ”
Sun Lin sat down on the ground all of a sudden, and Wei Qingyue knelt on the ground, holding him tightly, and asked with concern, "How is it?" How are you? Sun Lin took a few deep breaths, paused and replied, "It's okay, I'm a little exhausted." Mo Buyu also came over and instructed his subordinates: "Hurry up and help Sun Lin to rest." ”
As soon as the words fell, there was a sound of breaking the door in the back camp, Lin Pinghui was suddenly startled, grabbed the big knife, and shouted: "Rush over with me." The rest of the Jinfan Army followed Lin Pinghui to the back camp to support Zhang Kai and Mo Liu.
Mo Buyu looked at the front of the formation, and after Sun Lin stopped the magic array, the fire suddenly became smaller. The Sanshan army was retreating briskly, and Bai Zan led the cavalry to gallop over from the other side. He paused for a moment, then turned around and went to the rear camp to support.
When the rear camp was broken, Ding Yan, the commander of the Yunshan battalion of the Sanshan Army, struggled to break free from the rope and secretly escaped from the camp.
Zhang Kai and Mo Liu were covered in blood, and they were still desperately resisting. After Lin Pinghui and Mo Buyu joined, everyone worked together to force the Sanshan Army of the front team to withdraw from the camp. It was also around this time that Mu Yu received the military order to retreat, he saw Mo Buyu and Mo Liu from a distance, sighed helplessly, and ordered the withdrawal of the army back to the camp.
Outside the city of Wankou, as the troops returned to the camp, they gradually quieted down. The Cefu and Jinfan armies suffered heavy losses in this battle, and the first batch of Cefu cavalry who rushed to Anhuikou were only more than 3,000 left, and the Jinfan army only survived 5,000 sergeants, plus Bai Zan came to help, a total of less than 19,000 people. The Sanshan Army led by Lu Zhenshan also suffered heavy casualties after this battle, and the remaining 62,000 sergeants and the Dawei Mountain Battalion that he could now put into the battlefield were available.
The war stopped, and the people of Xuanmen also withdrew from the west gate of Wankou City, and they did not cooperate with Lu Zhenshan in Zhilu, which surprised several people. Maybe it was because he was afraid of Liu Yigang, but everyone didn't think much about it, there were many wounded soldiers in the camp at the moment, and Su Yining ordered his disciples to help too. Just when the barracks were busy, several sergeants hurriedly came to report that Ding Yan had escaped.
Just now, all the sergeants in the battalion came out, resisting the two-sided attack of the Sanshan Army, and it was inevitable that they relaxed their guards, but Ding Yan must have seized the opportunity and escaped. At this time, if you want to go out to catch up, I'm afraid that you have no clue, so you can only give up.
Ding Yan galloped all the way and chased after the retreating Sanshan Army. Mu Yizheng didn't know Ding Yan, but the sergeants all recognized General Ding. When Ding Yan saw Mu Yuzheng, he didn't ask who he was, and said, "I want to see General Lu." Mu Yuzheng nodded, and took him back to the camp with him.
Because of the reason for being captured, when Mu Yan was taking Ding Yan to see Lu Zhenshan, he was extremely cautious. On the contrary, Lu Zhenshan saw Ding Yan coming back, and said lightly: "It's hard work, it's good to come back, and then it's up to you to fight to the death with Cefu." With that, he looked at the injured Wang Fengmang. Wang Fengmang was a little ashamed, and tried his best to get up and promise. Ding Yan saw that Lu Zhenshan was not punished, so he hurriedly spoke: "The subordinates must do their best and vow to kill Mo Buyu and the others." Lu Zhenshan nodded, and fell silent for a while.
Ding Yan paused for a moment and said: "Pan Lingqian intends to join our army, and there are tens of thousands of support people from Yuzhang County who will rush to Anhuikou, I don't know if they have come to contact the general." ”
When Lu Zhenshan heard this, he stared at Ding Yan and said, "Let's talk about it in detail." ”
Ding Yan saw that the main general was quite interested, and he immediately replied: "Pan Lingqian came to me before, expressing his willingness to submit, and I also promised to reward him for his meritorious deeds after the deed, and he immediately responded and informed that there were still sergeants who would come to Wankou and work together to deal with Cefu when the time came." After hearing this, Lu Zhenshan's expression was serious, and he returned to Ding Yan: "You go to contact again, if he really comes to vote, you might as well include this Yuzhang County Army under your command, the reinforcements of the Cefu have arrived, and it will be more difficult in the future, and it will be helpful to win them over." ”
After Ding Yan heard this, he immediately surrendered his promise, turned around and walked out of the camp and went to Panling.
