Chapter 425: Night is Coming
The sun gradually rose, but the sun was not scorching, with a faint warmth, dispelling the cold.
The battle at the end of the valley was nearing its end, Guan Xing and Zhang Bao did not waste time because of Zhu Bao's head, killing Zhu Bao was only half of the plan, but this half was completed, and the remaining half was not a problem.
Except for a small number of regular soldiers, most of the soldiers in the county are directly recruited as soldiers, and these people are not so much soldiers as they are equipped with weapons, regardless of their combat effectiveness, centripetal force, morale and combat consciousness can not be compared with normal soldiers at all.
A soldier is not loyal, but as long as he has enough fighting consciousness and morale, he can still play a sufficient role on the battlefield, but without these things, even if he is a loyal soldier, it is useless on the battlefield.
What's more, the loyalty of soldiers is sometimes more difficult to obtain than the sense of battle and morale, at least Zhu Bao does not have the ability to win the love and support of these soldiers, so the moment the handsome flag is cut off, the decadent mood quickly begins to spread, and the soldiers who are still in the valley road obviously do not know what happened, but the chaos ahead can be perceived.
Guan Xing and Zhang Bao led the troops back and forth to kill, constantly defeating and annihilating those forces that intended to resist, accelerating the speed of the rout, many soldiers have already hid on the side of the road and knelt down to ask for surrender, no one will take care of them on the chaotic battlefield, but at least no one will deliberately attack them, Guan Xing and Zhang Bao will not, and the soldiers of Qiqi County will not either, and even infected by this emotion, more people choose to retreat to the side of the road and surrender.
Even if there are not too many enemy troops, but at this time the impact of the commander's death comes out, and some generals take the initiative to take the lead in surrendering, the impact is obviously greater than that of ordinary soldiers surrendering, and more and more people choose to give up resistance or flee.
The battle ahead was naturally seen clearly by Liu Yi through the binoculars, the enemy army was in chaos, no matter whether Zhu Bao was killed or not, the situation was already in his own hands.
"Wolf smoke!" Liu Yi said in a deep voice to the flag officer beside him.
"Whoa!" The flag officer agreed, quickly ran to the most conspicuous position on the top of the mountain, and waved the brightly colored order flag in his hand below.
Soon, in the direction of the mountain, a thick column of black smoke rose up.
"Meng Yan!" Liu Yi put away the binoculars and said in a deep voice as he walked down the mountain.
"The last general!" Meng Yan bowed and said.
"You immediately lead your troops to attack, rob the rout, and surrender." Liu Yi said as he walked that the defeat of the soldiers of Qiqi County had been completed, and Zhu Bao was powerless to recover the defeat if he died or not.
"Whoa!" Meng Yan agreed and left quickly, while Liu Yi came down from the mountain under the protection of the guards without hurry, and the battlefield below the mountain had become a mess, but the situation became more and more clear, especially when Meng Yan led the army to kill from behind, which accelerated the rout.
It is impossible to completely block it, after all, there are many people on the other side, it is impossible to be completely stopped, and Liu Yi never thought that he could capture all the troops of 20,000 people without carrying out large-scale killing, which is unrealistic.
Seeing that the sound of fighting in the valley gradually subsided, Liu Yi's mind was no longer here, counting, this was probably the first time Lu Lingqi had really led troops in these years, and I didn't know if he could really make a gain.
Although he knows that his wife is not weak, knowing that he knows does not mean that he is not worried, which is also the reason why Liu Yi does not want Lu Lingqi to come out, even if the god of war is alive, but after all, he is still his own woman.
……
Outside the city, a burly barbarian girl bent her waist and rushed back to Lu Lingqi like a cheetah: "General, the wolf smoke has risen, do we want to move troops?" ”
Lu Lingqi shook her head, silently observing the city wall of Helan with a telescope, the red tassels fluttering in the wind, and her beautiful eyes were a little less soft and graceful than usual, but a little more fierce, staring at her prey like an eagle falcon, this was her first battle in these years, and she couldn't fall into the name of her husband, nor could she fall into the name of the Lu family.
Liu Yi's wolf smoke is not a signal to attack, but a signal to tell her that she has made a move and has an advantage, it is wolf smoke during the day, and it is beacon fire at night, as for whether to attack, it depends on Lu Lingqi to judge.
At present, Lan is still on alert, and the city is fully guarded, although this is not a strong city, but there is only an army composed of a thousand barbarian women under Lu Lingqi, and it is not the best strategy to attack.
"Probe!" Lu Lingqi said in a deep voice.
"Whoa!" The barbarian girl left in a hurry, while Lu Lingqi continued to observe, first, to observe the layout of the defenders, and secondly, to observe the weaknesses of the entire city.
After following Liu Yi for so many years, Liu Yi studies the construction of the city every day and how to find the weaknesses of the city, there is no perfect building in this world, no matter how strong the city is, it also has its defensive blind spots, Lu Lingqi and Liu Yi have been married for many years, under the influence of ears and eyes, for this point, there is some research, and with the fact that the defender generals themselves are not outstanding, there are more defensive blind spots.
The wait was long, and when the day was slanting westward, and when night was about to fall, the rout began to appear in the sight of Lu Lingqi's part.
"General?" The female soldier in charge of the investigation rushed back and looked at Lu Lingqi with exploration in her eyes.
"Unload your armor and go down the mountain!" Lu Lingqi silently took off Shenhang's armor, whether it was her silver scale armor or the red armor on these female soldiers, it was too eye-catching, although Liu Yi had instructed her not to remove her armor, but now she wanted to approach the city without making the defenders vigilant, their armor could not continue to be worn on their bodies, and it was easy to be noticed by the enemy.
"Whoa!" A group of female soldiers didn't say a word, and with the help of each other, they took off the red armor on their bodies.
A group of female soldiers unloading their armor may sound exciting, but if you really see this scene, I'm afraid there won't be too many people who feel excited.
Lu Lingqi glanced down at the more prominent part of her chest, frowned, and asked people to wrap herself tightly with her belt, and it became a little difficult to breathe, but this was not very noticeable, especially in the dim night, it was difficult to distinguish between men and women.
"Later, we will be in a group, blend in with those routs, and when the enemy army opens the city gates, we will do it immediately!" While folding his silver spear into nine knots and tying it around his waist, he instructed several female generals.
Several female generals silently agreed, followed Lu Lingqi, grabbed soil on the ground and wiped it on their faces, in the night, except for Lu Lingqi, as long as this group of female soldiers does not speak and does not look carefully, I am afraid that they will not wipe the soil, and it will be difficult to see them as women.
The female soldiers moved very quickly, and when the routs rushed out of the valley, the women soldiers mixed in with the routs, and at this time, even if anyone noticed these people, they would not care, and it was important to flee for their lives.
Lu Lingqi looked at the approaching city, and the killing intent on her body gradually began to spill out.
Someone hit her in the back, Liu frowned slightly, turned his head to look, but it was a relatively well-equipped soldier, he should be a general or something, but at this moment he was already separated from his own troops, and a person rushed forward with his head bored, and he had already knocked away many people.
Looking up, he looked at the gray-faced and tall soldier in front of him, and directly scolded a dialect that he didn't understand.
Lu Lingqi didn't speak, she was afraid of exposing herself, and as soon as she opened her mouth in this kind of place, she would be exposed.
The other party was obviously a little emotionally disturbed, as if he wanted to vent the fear in his heart, Lu Lingqi didn't speak, but he didn't give in, and even pulled with his hands.
Lu Lingqi looked at him indifferently, didn't say much, and in the stunned eyes of the soldiers around her, she suddenly stretched out her hand and knocked on the other party's neck.

In the sound of the broken laryngeal bones, Natun Jiang stared at Lu Lingqi in astonishment, hugged his neck and looked at Lu Lingqi, with dazed and frightened emotions in his eyes, he screamed a few times hoarsely, and his body slowly fell down.
Cannibalism, this is a common thing in the rout, some are to flee for their lives, some want to take revenge, anyway, once the army is defeated, cannibalism and trampling on each other are common, in this chaotic army, not many people will pay attention to this, but the people around are subconsciously far away from Lu Lingqi.
The city was already in sight, the defenders on the city wall began to be on alert, the sound of horns echoed in the mountains, and some people shot arrows to deter these routs, but there were not many who really stopped, Lu Lingqi glanced up at the city wall, slowed down, and did not move forward.
The next moment, a rain of arrows shot down from the city instantly killed a rout army that rushed forward, and finally stopped the rout.
Lu Lingqi was mixed in the crowd, several female soldiers came over and silently protected Lu Lingqi's side, some people wanted to rush in, and with a wave of their hand, they directly knocked the other party down.
The surrounding rout army was shouting loudly, and the dissatisfaction could be detected even if they didn't understand what they said, the air was filled with a bloody breath, and it was already dim, Lu Lingqi looked at someone negotiating at the head of the city, shouts sounded from time to time around him, the other party's tone seemed to be a little loose, and Lu Lingqi silently held the silver gun on his waist.
The city gate was finally opened, and the noisy and dissatisfied voices of the soldiers gathered around obviously made the guards a little uneasy, and they were also worried about Zhu Bao's problems.
There was no drawbridge, and the two city gates slowly opened, and in the darkness, it was like a giant beast crawling on the earth, slowly opening its bloody mouth.
Lu Lingqi licked her somewhat chapped lips, followed the crowd, and slowly moved towards the city gate, and the murderous intent in her eyes began to become more and more intense.
The female soldiers who were mixed around began to gather around her, and the weapons in their hands also reflected the seeping cold light in the last rays of the setting sun......
