Ma Tangfeng's face was black and terrifying, and he pointed at the scout angrily and shouted, "Nonsense! ”

The scout was taken aback and said in horror: "General, that Gao Hongyi really came with a large army, just ten miles away from the suburbs, saying that he was at the request of the general to fight us to the death!" ”

Of course, Ma Tangfeng knew that what the scout said was right, otherwise he would not have risked his life to break the military rules, but what he said was too inopportune. I just told the sergeants that Gao Hongyi was as timid as a mouse and didn't dare to come, he was coming, wasn't he slapping himself in the face. Besides, the morale of the sergeants had just been raised by him with great difficulty, and now if they knew that Gao Hongyi's army was coming to the city, their morale would definitely be low, and their combat strength would definitely decline!

Ma Tangfeng's face was gloomy, and he said angrily: "Bold! Myths confuse the public! Come on, pull me out and cut it down! ”

The scout was pulled out and didn't know why he was killed! He cried out for mercy, repeating what he had seen with his own eyes.

But when he said this, Ma Tangfeng became more angry, and he closed his eyes angrily and stood on the high platform for a while before he woke up. said: "Gao Hongyi's soldiers are weak and outnumbered, let alone leading the army to our western moat, even if he can't attack Gale City!" Such a fallacy to confuse the crowd is simply not a pity to die! In the future, if anyone dares to lie about the military situation, they will definitely be killed! ”

Ma Tangfeng said and returned to his general's mansion, and at the same time called several lieutenants of the Soldiers and Horses Division to follow him.

As soon as he arrived at the conference hall of the General's Mansion, Ma Tangfeng asked sharply: "Gao Hongyi, this rat generation, really dares to come!" He's not afraid of death?! ”

The adjutant generals asked suspiciously: "General, what's coming!" Didn't you just say that the scout was a gossip? ”

Ma Tangfeng glared at them and scolded: "Stupid, I was supposed to show it to the sergeants, don't you understand?" ”

Several lieutenant generals came to their senses at this time, and immediately their hearts were shocked, and they said: "General, since Gao Hongyi is here with a large army, he is going to fight to the death with us!" Let's think of a way to deal with it as soon as possible! ”

"General, we should immediately withdraw the soldiers of the three battalions that were sent out to attack the northern protection just now! Otherwise, once Gao Hongyi sends troops to attack the city, our remaining 10,000 people will not be able to defend the west at all! ”

The adjutant generals echoed in unison: "Yes, general! For the sake of today's plan, we must send someone immediately! ”

Ma Tangfeng gritted his teeth and said angrily, "No, the three battalions of the army will go to Beihu and with the help of the Cheng clan, they will definitely be able to take Beihu, if they are withdrawn at this time, won't all their previous efforts be wasted!" ”

The slightly clever lieutenant general insisted on "General, it's important to save your life!" The strange soldiers we sent to the north guard are far away, and it will take at least three days to get to the north guard, plus in order not to let Gao Hongyi know that we have to make a detour to Zhenshan, this is another day of delay, this is four days! But what about us, even if these people are desperately defending the west moat! It can only be guarded for one day, so before our people arrived in the north protection, Gao Hongyi took the lead in breaking our city!

General, at that time, even if we lay down the Northern Protector, we will be gone, so what's the use! ”

The lieutenant generals echoed: "General, what Vice Admiral Chen said is reasonable! Give the order to withdraw the troops! ”

Ma Tangfeng turned his back very angrily, of course he knew that what Vice General Chen said was true! But he was unwilling. It was a Jedi counterattack that he had been thinking about for a long time, and he withdrew as soon as he got out of the city, he was really unwilling, unwilling!

He pondered, constantly trying to find a way to crack it! However, even if he wanted to break his head, it was useless, after all, Gao Hongyi's army had already arrived outside the city!

Ma Tangfeng turned around, sat down in his position, and said loudly: "Vice General Chen, you go over and withdraw the sergeants of the third battalion to the west moat!" ”

"Subordinates obey!" Vice General Chen immediately replied, and at the same time asked, "General, what should Mrs. Gao do!" ”

Ma Tangfeng thought about it for a while, and said ruthlessly: "Since she can't go back to Beihu to help us, then stay and help us!?" ”

"A woman, what can she help!"

"She's so useful!" Ma Tangfeng's face sank and said, "Tie her up for me, put her in front of the army early tomorrow morning, and fight Gao Hongyi to the death with us!" ”

The adjutant generals were puzzled: "General, fight to the death?" ”

Ma Tangfeng replied affirmatively: "That's right! Ben Jiang thought that Gao Hongyi would not dare to come, but he didn't expect him to really come. That's just right, let's fight with him. I don't believe that on the big flat land on the outskirts, our 40,000 army of elite soldiers and strong generals is no match for his 30,000 wine bags and rice bags of Gao Hongyi!

......

"General, do you really want to fight to the death with that Ma Tang Feng?" Mei Rou said on the side.

"Of course! Otherwise, what would I do here and now? Gao Hongyi said with a smile.

Mei Rou was a little worried, and said: "General, our main force is still attacking the city with General Li Zhong, and there are only a few thousand cavalry here at the moment. If the general really wants to fight to the death, he should immediately transfer the army over! ”

Gao Hongyi shook his head, "No hurry!" How many cities has Li Zhong captured? ”

Mei Rou immediately replied: "Four cities! The Fifth City is being attacked! ”

"So fast?" Gao Hongyi didn't seem to expect that in just two days, the army was already about to wipe out the Western Protector, eight days faster than the ten days they originally expected.

Mei Rou nodded and replied, "It's thanks to what the general did in that Windy City!" The people of the Windy City you spared, they are grateful, and they go around preaching the kindness of the general, which is a hundred times stronger than the wind of the horse hall! Broke the rumors that Ma Tang Feng bewitched the people of the West Protector! Therefore, after General Li Zhong captured Tieyan City, the other two cities surrendered directly!

Only the defender of Namufang City was Ma Tangfeng's uncle, who raised his troops to defend and refused to surrender, so General Li was still attacking. Also, the general, the people of the West who surrendered the city, praised the general, and they also said... ”

Gao Hongyi sighed: "The people's hearts are terrible and respectable! What else did the people say? ”

Mei Rou couldn't help but smile and said: "They also say that the general is a good and virtuous person in the world, the Bodhisattva descends, and the Buddha is reborn!" ”

Gao Hongyi hurriedly stopped, "Stop!" Don't go any further. I wouldn't have dared to take these titles seriously, I'm not that good, at most ... Gao Hongyi hesitated for a moment, and said with a smile: "At most, it's just a good sage in the world." ”

"Still?!" Yuan Hui'er sneered on the side, "It seems that the general is still modest." ”

Gao Hongyi said proudly, "That's nature, Miss Hui'er and Ben Jiang really have a heart!" ”

Burst! Yuan Hui'er couldn't help but hide her face and laugh.

The crowd laughed along.

Seeing that the sun was ending, Gao Hongyi ordered: "Mei Rou, you go and pass on the general's order, let Li Zhong attack the city with all his might, be sure to take Mufang City before tonight, and then immediately bring troops to the west to protect the city!" ”
