The so-called "Imperial Expedition" of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom Holy Father Tianzun One-Eyed Dragon Gao Jinbao did not achieve the expected results, and the officers and men of the New Army for the Protection of the Country, who had already tasted the taste of victory, did not take him, the mortal "Thunder God" and the "Heavenly Soldiers and Heavenly Generals" led by him, in their eyes, at all.

After three victories in three battles, the New Army of the Protectorate was mainly anti-guest, completely ignoring the deep dissatisfaction and strong resistance of all the people of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, and drove them all to the south of the Ling River. Since then, the New Army has forcibly taken nearly half of the territory under the jurisdiction of the original "Thor" Gao Jinbao into its own pocket, and it seems that it has no intention of returning it.

The two warring sides began a stalemate with the Ling River as the boundary. General Yan changed his resolute offensive posture in the past, and suddenly began to stand still.

This made the one-eyed dragon Gao Jinbao happy, but he was quite puzzled: This hateful old immortal suddenly changed his character? Or is there another conspiracy?

In any case, this is a rare respite, Gao Jinbao took advantage of this opportunity to mobilize the rear grain, grass, soldiers and horses to gather on the bank of the Ling River, intending to use all his national strength and fight his life to fight to the death with the hateful white-bearded old man and a gang of thieves! Because they're too much of a bully!

In the camp of the New Army for the Protection of the Country, a captain on duty walked into the Chinese army tent of General Yan, bowed down and saluted: "Tell the marshal, General Qiu Shengrong and General Qiu ask to see him." ”

Old General Yan, who was sitting at the back of the table and was looking down at the books, put down his right hand, which was holding a heavy silver beard, raised his head and said, "Please let him in." ”

With the sound of subtle friction as the armor shook, General Qiu Shengrong strode in. This person is a tall man, his face is like a heavy jujube, his eyebrows are thick and black and straight, the crow's feet at the corners of his eyes contain a faint murderous aura, and a few strands of long hair fluttering on his chest.

After standing still, he bowed and saluted: "The last general will see the big handsome." There will be something unclear in the end, so I implore the marshal to teach him in person! At present, our army is winning one after another, and its morale is booming, so it is natural to take advantage of the victory to pursue and completely exterminate the Taiping bandits, but why did we order the troops to rest and recuperate, giving the bandits a chance to breathe? The soldiers of our department are gearing up and eager to try. Entrusted by the generals of his subordinates, the last general specially came to implore the marshal, with the temporary position of the pioneer battalion of our department, to quickly assault, cross the Ling River, eradicate the Taiping bandits as soon as possible, and return me to a bright and clear world! ”。

Old General Yan smiled slightly and said, "Entrusted by his subordinates? In the old man's opinion, General Qiu can't sit still, right? Our army defeated the Taiping bandits three times, but General Qiu still refuses to give up, and he is still unsatisfied? Don't be impatient, and let the old man come for you one by one. ”

As he spoke, General Yan stood up, slowly paced over with his hands behind his back, and continued: "Yes, the art of war is cloudy, and the soldiers are fast. However, our army has won three battles and three victories, and although the thieves have been defeated, their vitality has not yet been dissipated. As the saying goes, rabbits bite when they are in a hurry, and the Taiping bandits will inevitably fight the trapped beasts when their vitality is not exhausted. What's more, our army has been fighting continuously, and the soldiers are also a little tired and urgently need to rest for a while. Soldiers, treacherous, pay attention to relaxation. The old man seems to have given the thief a chance to breathe, but in fact, he is implementing the strategy of drawing wages from the bottom of the kettle. After General Qiu returns to the camp, he can appease his subordinates and step up their rest and training, and in less than a month, there will be a big battle, which is enough for the brothers to work! At that time, it may be the time when the Taiping bandits will be wiped out! Our army will never have a chance to rest again."

Qiu Shengrong was stunned there, doubting his faith.

Old General Yan glanced back at him and said with a smile: "What? General Qiu can't even trust the old man? ”。

General Qiu hurriedly bowed his head and saluted: "The last general doesn't dare, it's just that the subordinate soldiers are eager to fight, and I hope the old general will be considerate." ”

Old General Yan sat down slowly, picked up the book again, and said, "The old man understands that as long as you don't add fuel to the fire of the general, the soldiers will naturally calm down slowly, go ahead." ”

General Qiu bowed down again and bowed back.

The sky is blue, the wilderness is vast, and the wind blows the grass and shows knives and guns.

With an angry face, Alatan urged his horse to rush out of his own battle formation, brandishing a huge double scythe, pointing at the leader of the opposing camp, Baals, and shouting: "Bals, there is a kind of you who come out and fight me alone!" I relented and let you go, a wicked man, and I can't regret it now! ”。

With a smile on his face, Bas lifted the reins of his horse and took two steps forward and said, "Alatan, I respect you as a true man of the steppe, if you can lay down your arms now and find your way back, I will treat you differently from the other Caters." The Cutters tribe has dominated the grassland for many years, oppressing the weak tribes and treacherous, and its guilt is too numerous to mention! Today, our tribal alliance represents the vast majority of the weak tribes on the grassland, and wants to seek justice! The two armies are facing each other, and this is not the time for you to be brave! ”。

With that, Bars looked at Unabatur, who was far away from his horse, with a firm and cold gaze, and with a "swish" he drew his bright scimitar, turned his horse and shouted, "Warriors of the steppe, rush!" Kill all the dastardly Catters! ”。

Accompanied by the earth-shattering shouts and the neighing of war horses, the team of the new alliance of the steppe tribes stepped on the turf, rolled up puffs of dust and smoke, raised the snowy scimitar in their hands, and launched an attack on the Cutters tribe.

Unabatur gritted his back molars hatefully, slowly drew his scimitar, and shouted behind him: "Eagles of Kates, we are the true kings of the steppe!" Protect my homeland, kill me with me! ”。

The well-trained Catters roared in unison, raising their scimitars in the same air and charging viciously towards each other.

Alatan made his way through the crowd and rushed towards Bars with the scythe in his hand, only to be stopped by the red-eyed Chagan Temur and Agudamu, who slashed at him mercilessly with two scimitars.

Chagan Temur waved the scimitar in his hand, gritted his teeth and said in his mouth: "For Aslan, for Sulunga, kill all the filthy Kats!" ”。

Alatan was restless and had words of suffering. He blocked left and right, but he couldn't kill the two former comrades-in-arms in front of him.

There was a sudden commotion in the ranks of the Cats, and Unabatur turned his head to look in surprise, but he couldn't believe his eyes: a few days ago, he swore that he would be friends with the Cutters tribe forever, and several small tribes joined the small tribes, but at this time, he suddenly turned his knife and swung his scimitar at the Cutus warriors from behind.

The camp of the Castus warriors was suddenly in chaos, and each of the Castus warriors galloped on their horses in a terrified manner, and they found that on the battlefield of Nuoda, except for their own compatriots, they could not distinguish whether others were friends or foes!

A smile appeared on the corner of Bars's mouth, and without hesitation, he motioned to the herald to take the opportunity to send a signal, and the whole army pressed on it, and struck the panicked Catus.

In the midst of the flying flesh, Unabatur desperately brandished his blood-dripping scimitar, his eyes red. Suddenly, a strong smell of burnt paste entered his nostrils, and he turned his horse back in shock, and saw a familiar scene: billowing smoke from the camp of Caters not far behind him, and behind the black smoke, scarlet flames also volunteered to rise.

Unabatur screamed, and instead of ordering his disorganized team to turn around and protect the old camp, he single-handedly charged at Bars with his teeth and claws.

Bars, who had just turned his back, raised his sword without hesitation, and met Unabatur's red eyes, which were almost dripping blood.

The enemies were very angry when they met, and the two former allies engaged in a life-and-death contest. They worked for almost the same goal: the scepter of the Khan, the dominion of the steppes.

Unabatur's knife routine was close to Alatan, and each move was powerful, and the snowy scimitar with the sound of whirring wind surrounded Bars.

Bars, who rarely made a move, was elegant and nimble, but he suddenly turned around in the middle of the slash from the top of his head, turning into a horizontal slash towards Unabatur's neck.

In the melee, Alatan shouted angrily, his moves sped up, and his subordinates began to show no mercy, but under the siege of Chagan Temur and Agudam, it was difficult for him to win for a while, and he couldn't help but sweat profusely. And Agudammu and Chagan Temur, although they have used all their strength, still have Alatan in front of them, and they are also anxious.

In the camp of the Taiping army on the south bank of the Ling River, the one-eyed dragon Gao Jinbao was convening the civil and military ministers to discuss the matter.

Gao Jinbao, who was high up, frowned and said: "Seeing that it's been almost a month, the thief army on the other side has always stood still, you might as well sum it up, what the hell is that white-bearded demon fighting?" ”。

All the civil and military officers looked at each other, bowed their heads in contemplation, and no one dared to squeak. Suddenly, the curtain was lifted, and a dusty captain hurried in with his head bowed palely. I saw him kneeling down and saluting: "Heavenly Father's Holy Venerable Immortal Mang, longevity is boundless, light covers the sun and moon, iQue Eight Desolations, thousands of years, blessings in all directions!" The Quzhou government reported urgently that the urging to collect military rations this time caused a riot among the local hungry people. ”

Gao Jinbao's eyes narrowed with a gloomy face and said, "A few little mobs, what's the fuss?" We have knives and guns in our hands, isn't it easier to crush them than to crush an ant? Thanks to Ben Tianzun's love for the people like a son on weekdays, this war is about to collect some food from them, and they will all be cut down, and they will be killed to make an example! ”。

The captain swallowed and spitted at the mouth and continued: "Heavenly Father's Holy Venerable Immortal Mang, longevity is boundless, light covers the sun and moon, fugue eight wildernesses, thousands of years, blessings in all directions!" Originally, there were hundreds of mobs that were not to be worried, but this time the rebellion was very strange, and the two groups of men and horses sent by our army were all annihilated, and no one survived. According to the urgent report from the rear, the number of rebel mobs is increasing, and the banner of the new army of the Great Qi Protector has been raised in the ranks, and the momentum is getting louder and louder, and one of our capital cities has been captured. ”

Gao Jinbao only felt a "buzz" in his head, and slowly stood up holding on to the table.

All the civil and military forces were also taken aback, "the whole world celebrates the stars and the moon and competes for the glory of the world's first great power teacher" Xu Tianshi wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, and hurriedly went out to play: "Heavenly Father's holy venerable immortals, longevity is boundless, light covers the sun and moon, fugue eight wildernesses, thousands of years, blessings in all directions!" The Holy Father is above, at present, the main forces of our army are gathered on the south bank of the Ling River, and the rear is very empty. Not only will it seriously affect the supply of food and grass for our army, but the spirit of victory of the soldiers in front of our army will also collapse because of this. Therefore, Weichen suggested that whether it is a mob or a thief army, it must not be taken lightly, and a large army must be sent to eradicate it as soon as possible to prevent future troubles! ”。

Gao Jinbao calmed down his mind, gritted his teeth and nodded: "Lai Qingsheng, the general of the dragon and the tiger, swallowed the mountains and rivers, and won a hundred battles, listened to the order, and ordered you to lead the men and horses of your headquarters to hold the defense line on the south bank of the Ling River, and the rest of the men and horses will go to Quzhou tonight with this Tianzun to quell the chaos." Remember, don't light torches when the troops evacuate, keep quiet, and don't let the bandits on the other side notice! After our army quells the rebellion in Quzhou, we will unknowingly return to the front line, and the thieves will be completely annihilated in the future! ”。

All the civil and military forces knelt on the ground in unison, and shouted in unison: "Heavenly Father's Holy Venerable Immortal Mang, longevity is boundless, light covers the sun and moon, iQue Eight Desolations, thousands of years, blessings in all directions!" ”。 Then he quickly got up, lowered his head and hurriedly retreated.
