When Liu Wen led the troops to provoke, it was already four or five o'clock in the afternoon, and by the time the battle began, the sky was gradually dark.

Not long after, the Xia army was killed in chaos and abandoned the village again and fled.

Luo Yi and Wang Xuba are the same.

But compared to the previous times, when I escaped this time, it was getting dark.

In this era, there was no street lighting or anything.

In addition, the weather was not good that night, and the moon was not visible at all.

These coalition soldiers escaped in the dark overnight, and the difficulty can be imagined.

One foot deep and one foot shallow.

Because they were afraid of the pursuers, they did not dare to light torches, and various situations appeared from time to time, until the sky was dark, and the coalition troops fled to a suitable place, temporarily set up camps, buried pots and cooked food, and began to repair.

When it was close to noon, the dark sentry ran back to report that the Sui army had arrived.

When Dou Jiande, Luo Yi, Wang Xuba and others heard this, they hurriedly ordered to pack up their things and leave.

At this moment, the morale of the three-way army is completely lost.

And because of the previous fake news, they became extremely pessimistic and felt that their hope was getting slimmer and slimmer, and Liu Wen's successive victories and pursuits made them more and more desperate.

Even if Dou Jiande, Luo Yi, and Wang Xuba knew that a lot of news was fake.

But the soldiers and low-ranking officials under their command.

I knew that I would have thought about things less.

It is also very simple to understand the general trend of the world.

After all

There were few people reading in this era.

Many people don't know a few words.

The idea is also relatively simple.

Otherwise, they will not be easily deceived by the rebels.

At this moment, they heard so much fake news, and the more Dou Jiande, Luo Yi, and Wang Xuba covered it up, the more they felt that it was true.

The relationship between the coalition forces gradually became somewhat antagonistic.

Many soldiers and low-level military officials gradually had conflicts with their superiors.

There have even been repeated cases of disobedience.

If in normal times, Dou Jiande, Luo Yi, and Wang Xuba do ideological work, it can also have a certain effect.

But now.

There were many big battles, and it was too late to run away, so how could they have time to care about the ideological problems of the soldiers?

Therefore, during this escape, many people found an opportunity to deliberately fall behind, break away from the coalition forces of the three families, and then fend for themselves.

Wait until the three-way army reappears and takes root.

The number of people counted by each party is counted.

The least, Luo Yi, lost seven or eight thousand people.

Wang Suba's men ran away more than 20,000.

"Damn!"

Wei Dao'er scolded again in the account: "This damn old ghost Dou Jiande, we led an army of 100,000 to help him, but now, we have been defeated again and again, and there are only more than 50,000 people left." Isn't this pulling us together to send us to death! ”

He scolded happily.

But forgot.

If he hadn't annexed Jizhou at the beginning, how could he have led troops here?

"Brother, you can say a few words."

"Big brother, are you still facing him?"

"!" Wang Xuba took a bite: "I can't wait to pick his skin and eat his flesh!" But now that we have suffered serious losses, and they can send them to the Sui army, can't they forget about our side? Now that we are on his territory, our forces have been greatly reduced, and if we are not careful, I am afraid that we will be doomed! ”

"Damn!"

Wei Dao'er gritted his teeth and scolded.

After a while, he said with some puzzlement: "It's strange today, obviously we didn't fight Liu Wen much, why are there so many fewer people suddenly!" Could it be that he was abducted by Luo Yi and Dou Jiande? ”

Wang Xuba thought for a while and said, "It's really possible. After all, our upper valley is a bitter cold place, with strong wind and sand and little water, and life there is extremely hard. And this Jizhou, the wind and rain are smooth, the land is fertile, as long as Dou Jiande promises a little benefit, it is inevitable that those people will not be moved. ”

"It's really annoying to me! This hypocritical thing, I want to settle accounts with him! ”

"What's the account? Be quiet! What's the matter, let's talk about it when I defeat Liu Wen. ”

"Defeat Liu Wen?" Wei Dao'er was speechless, "Do you still think you can defeat him?" I think this is purely because Dou Jiande and Luo Yi are about to be destroyed, and they deliberately dragged us into the water! ”

Wang Suba was silent.

"Big brother, let's go." Wei Dao'er said suddenly: "Let's withdraw first, and the big deal is to go to the Turks first." After Liu Wenfa destroys Dou Jiande and Luo Yi, it will definitely be impossible to stay here forever. As soon as he leaves, we will take advantage of the situation to annex Jizhou. Even if you can't eat it, it's good to take advantage of the situation and grab a handful. ”

"Okay, just do as you say!"

That night, Wang Subat sent his men to prepare secretly, telling them that he intended to return to the upper valley.

When many low-level officials and soldiers heard this, they all rejoiced in their hearts.

After all.

Many of them have families, and they are still in the upper valley.

It is one of their great wishes to return to the upper valley to see if their families are safe.

When they heard that they were leaving, these people were very actively prepared.

Dou Jiande and Luo Yi's meticulous work, after hearing the news, hurriedly went back to report.

Song Zhengben said to Dou Jiande: "King Xia, judging from the current situation, Wang Xuba and Wei Dao'er will be safe, and we can't stop it if we want to." According to what Chen saw, it was better to pass the news to Liu Wen secretly. ”

"What!"

Dou Jiande looked at him with a surprised face.

His eyes widened in surprise.

For a while, I couldn't understand why Song Zhengben came up with such an idea.

Is it crazy to gain and lose?

Song Zhengben smiled and said, "King Xia, as long as Liu Wen kills Wang Xuba and Wei Dao'er, aren't we just right to annex his subordinates?" With your benevolence and righteousness, King Xia, you will definitely be able to bring them to their hearts. At that time, even if we are more powerful than before, we will be greatly strengthened. ”

"But Liu Wen ......"

"As the so-called soldiers will block the water and cover the earth, and there will be a way to deal with Liu Wen. Now that Wang Xuba and Wei Dao'er have fled, this is an opportunity given by God, and if you don't grasp it tightly, then the opportunity will be gone. ”

"Good!" Dou Jiande nodded: "Just follow Qing's words!" ”

That night, some Xizuo secretly went to leak the news to Liu Wen.

In fact, Liu Wen already knew about Wang Xuba and Wei Dao'er's escape.

At this moment, Dou Jiande sent a fine work to deliver the news, Liu Wen summed up for a long time in his heart, and finally vaguely guessed that this was Dou Jiande's trick, and wanted to use his own hands to make some Wang Xuba and Wei Dao'er, and he could also take advantage of the situation to annex the two of their subordinates.

Liu Wen smiled secretly.

Because of his own false news before, many of the subordinates under Wang Xuba and Wei Dao'er are now bent on going back.

If Dou Jiande took advantage of the situation to annex them, he would completely cut off their way back.

On the surface, Dou Jiande has strengthened his strength.

Can be secretly.

Will these people be willing to stay?

forcibly incorporating a group of people who are not aligned with himself into his subordinates is equivalent to leaving a very unstable factor for himself, once it breaks out, Dou Jiande's subordinates will definitely collapse without a fight.

Thinking about these things, Liu Wen muttered and sneered: "Okay, I'll give you a cheap deal this time, cooperate with you well, and then see how you end!" ”
