Ning Weijin roared angrily: "Fang Linghu, how could Yu Envoy Jun frame you? There must be villains in the middle of this, and you are being taken advantage of. ”

Fang Linghu sneered and said, "Okay, you Ning Weijin, you are still full of nonsense when you are dying." Let me ask you, would you like to surrender? ”

Ning Weijin shook his head and said, "If you want to kill, you will kill, I will never surrender you!" ”

"Come, drag them down and behead them, and hang their heads on the head of the city." Fang Linghu ordered.

The soldiers were about to make a move, but Situ Zhan said: "Slow, don't kill them first, it's useful to keep them." ”

Fang Linghu waved his hand, and the soldiers retreated.

Yu Moyuan learned that the city of Yukou had been lost, so he asked Zuoqiu Hu: "Mr. Zuoqiu, what should we do now?" ”

Zuoqiu said: "This place is less than twenty miles away from Yukou City, and the soldiers are tired, so let's set up camp here first." ”

Huangfu Sui said: "Mr. Zuoqiu, I'm not tired, in my opinion, we should kill it directly and go to Yukou City to rest." ”

"Second brother, don't say it again, just do what Mr. Zuoqiu says." Yu Mo said from afar.

Fang Linghu and Situ Zhan stood on the north tower of Yukou City, looking into the distance, they were waiting for Yu Mo to come and attack the city. At the head of the city, the crossbowmen of the Feizhou army were all in formation, ready to fight.

"Fang Envoy Jun, I don't think Yu Moyuan will come today." Situ Zhan said.

"Yu Mo is far from coming to attack the city, is he using some tricks?"

Situ Zhan smiled and said, "Don't worry about it, as long as we strengthen our defense, he won't be able to enter this city." ”

Fang Linghu listened and nodded.

For the next ten days, Yu Moyuan did not order the siege of the city. Huangfu Sui was impatient and asked, "Big brother, what are we doing here all the time if we don't attack the city?" ”

Shangguan Huang was also a little puzzled, and said: "Childe, we have been camping here for ten days, and it is time to attack the city." ”

Yu Moyuan said: "Don't worry, it's not the time to attack the city, let's talk about it in a few days." ”

Fang Linghu saw that the Ruizhou army had not come to attack the city for a long time, and he was quite puzzled, he asked Situ Zhan: "Mr. Situ, it's been ten days, why hasn't the Ruizhou army come to attack the city yet?" ”

Situ Zhan thought for a while and said, "I'm afraid this is Yu Moyuan's plan to make the anti-guest the main thing." ”

"Anti-customer-oriented? I don't quite understand, please sir elaborate. ”

"Yu Moyuan knows that the city of Yukou City is strong, easy to defend and difficult to attack, he doesn't want to attack, but wants us to go out of the city to attack him, and when we go out of the city and are defeated, he can take advantage of the situation to take Yukou City."

"I see, so what do we do now?"

"You have to calm down, wait for the Ruizhou army to attack the city, they don't have much grain and grass with them, and they won't be able to come to attack the city for long."

Fang Linghu said: "Yu Moyuan is the same as our troops, he doesn't come to attack the city, we can go out of the city to attack him, there is no need to stay here all day." ”

"No, the Ruizhou army under the command of Yu Moyuan has been in battle for a long time, and there are many brave and good fighters, if they rush into battle, the Feizhou army is not their opponent."

"Mr. Situ, why do you want to grow the morale of others and destroy your own prestige. His Ruizhou army can fight, and my Feizhou army is not weak. Tomorrow I will lead my army out of the city, capture their large camp, and capture Yu Moyuan alive. Fang Linghu said.

Situ Zhan stopped talking, he knew in his heart that no matter who Fang Linghu and Yu Moyuan won or lost, it would be beneficial to Ling Yuan.

Early the next morning, Fang Linghu led 50,000 soldiers out of the city and went straight to the camp of the Ruizhou army.

The Feizhou army came to the front of the camp and saw that the camp gate was closed. Zhan Suo Wei said: "Envoy, there is a free battle card on the gate of their camp, it seems that Yu Moyuan does not dare to come out to meet the battle." ”

Fang Linghu laughed out loud and said, "Yu Moyuan is just a yellow-mouthed kid, he doesn't dare to come out to fight against me at all. General Zhan, you lead the troops to attack their camp, and within an hour, you must break through the camp! ”

"The last general obeys!"

Zhan Suowei ordered the cavalry to be in front and the infantry to be behind, and rushed towards the camp of the Ruizhou army. Many of the cavalry who ran in front fell into the trap.

Yu Mo saw that the Yuzhou army was approaching, so he ordered the crossbowmen to release their arrows. Although hundreds of people were shot down, the Feizhou army still rushed to the front of the camp fence.

The Ruizhou army stabbed outward with their spears, and many of the Yuzhou soldiers were stabbed to death. Zhan Suowei led the troops to slam the camp gate with a bumper wood, wanting to rush into the camp, but Huangfu Sui personally led the troops to block the camp gate and did not retreat a step.

The Feizhou army attacked fiercely for more than an hour, but still failed to attack the camp, Fang Linghu saw that the Feizhou army suffered heavy casualties, so he ordered Mingjin to withdraw his troops.

When the soldiers of the Feizhou Army heard Mingjin's voice, they all began to retreat. Yu Moyuan saw it in the camp and said to Shangguan Huang and Bian Xianyi: "The Yuzhou army has begun to retreat, let's take this opportunity to kill them and defeat them!" ”

The camp gate opened, and the soldiers of the Ruizhou army rushed out of the camp, and the Yuzhou army did not expect that the defenders in the camp would rush out, so they could only rush to meet the battle.

Shangguan Huang saw Fang Linghu and jumped on a horse to kill him. The pro-soldiers hurriedly blocked in front of Fang Linghu, and Shangguan Huang brandished his spear and stabbed thirty or forty pro-soldiers to death one after another. Fang Linghu was shocked when he saw such a fierce general, turned his horse's head and fled back.

The Feizhou army lost the upper hand in the battle, and the formation was in chaos, and they ran back one after another, and some of those who didn't have time to run away were killed.

"Mr. Zuoqiu, can you attack the city now?" Yu Moyuan asked.

Zuoqiu Hu shook his head and said: "If you attack the city now, although you can capture it, it will still lose thousands of soldiers, it is better not to attack the city first, I think after a few hours, Fang Linghu will take the initiative to let the city out." ”

"Mr. Zuoqiu, I don't believe that such a good thing will go." Huangfu Sui said.

Zuo Qiu Hu smiled and said, "General Huangfu, why don't we two make a bet?" ”

"How do you say bet?"

"I expect that within three hours, the Feizhou army will definitely withdraw from Yukou City. After three hours, if Fang Linghu withdraws, count me as winning, and if he doesn't withdraw, count you as winning. Whoever loses, will buy ten jars of good wine for the other party, how about it? ”

"Okay, just do as you say."

Fang Linghu retreated to the city in a panic and said to Situ Zhan: "Mr. Situ, I really regret that I didn't listen to you, so I was defeated. ”

Zhan Suowei walked over, and Fang Linghu asked, "General Zhan, how many soldiers have been withdrawn." ”

"Less than 20,000."

"What!" Fang Linghu was taken aback, he didn't expect that he would actually lose 30,000 soldiers when he went out of the city this time.

"Envoy, what should we do now?" Zhan Suowei asked.

"Withdraw troops. Quickly withdraw our troops, and we will return to Feizhou. Fang Linghu said loudly.

Situ Zhanyan said: "Fang Envoy Jun, if you withdraw your troops now, you will have lost all your previous achievements, are you willing to give up halfway?" ”

"Mr. Situ, I don't want to withdraw my troops, but the Feizhou army can't hold the city at all, and sooner or later it will lose the city, so it's better to withdraw to Feizhou as soon as possible, so as not to have more soldiers die here."

"Alas! Fang Envoy Jun, you can't withdraw, you have to hold on here for two months, I will go back to Yinghui City now, and let the general send troops to attack Ruizhou, so that the Ruizhou army will not be able to take care of each other, and then you can capture the eight counties of Ruizhou in one fell swoop. ”

Fang Linghu shook his head with a wry smile and said, "It's too late, I'm afraid I won't last two months, so let's withdraw my troops now." ”

Situ Zhan knew that Fang Linghu withdrew his troops to preserve his strength, so he stopped persuading him and followed Fang Linghu to withdraw from Yukou City.

When they came to the riverside, Situ Zhan said, "Fang Yuanjun, I'm going to rush back to Yinghui City, let's leave it at that." Farewell. ”

Fang Linghu didn't want Situ Zhan to stay any longer, so he said, "Okay, be careful on the road, we'll meet again in the future." ”

Situ Zhan left by boat with his entourage, and the Yuzhou army also withdrew to the south bank.

Yu Moyuan learned that Fang Linghu had led the Yuzhou army to withdraw from Yukou City, so he led his troops into the city and came to Taishou Mansion.

A servant girl came over and said, "General, Ning Taishou and General Ji are all locked up in a prison in the city. ”

"Okay, I got it." Yu Moyuan said.

Zuo Qiu Hu looked at Huangfu Sui and asked, "General Huangfu, which of the two of us won?" ”

Huangfu Sui said with a smile: "You won, you are really like a god, I will serve, and when I return to Ruizhou City, I will go to Shengming Tower to buy ten jars of good wine and send it to your home." ”
