The sky was cloudy and thunder was rolling. On the battlefield, the war drums rumbled, flags fluttered, and tens of thousands of people waved their flags and shouted in unison for the two people fighting in the center of the field, standing on their feet to cheer.

At this time, cold sweat was already breaking out on Li Jing's forehead. In the first dozens of moves, he didn't pay attention to the silver-bearded old man in front of him at all, opening and closing, every move was full of strength, and he couldn't wait to slap him to death or stab him all over his body. The strange thing is that the opponent seems to be timid in his heart, and most of them take a defensive position, only occasionally in addition to defense, and attack lightly, but it is also painless, and there is no fatal threat.

After more than fifty moves, the opponent suddenly slowly exerted force, as if there was a huge amount of energy in his body, and his stamina was endless, and he had just started at this time. The opponent is still on the defensive, but the frequency of counter-attacks has increased significantly, and it is no longer frivolous and unthreatening, but the move is straight to the point. This made Li Jing very worried in his heart, seeing the move, his attack would weaken, giving the opponent more opportunities to counterattack; Ignoring it, blindly attacking, and worrying that one of the other party's seemingly false tricks suddenly becomes true, he directly wants his own life.

This old puppet in front of him should not be underestimated! Li Jing gritted his teeth and said to himself in his heart. Under the pressure of the opponent, he had to be a little more careful, and he didn't dare to use all his strength for every move, and he always had reservations, he knew that this grappling was not a three-to-five division by two, and he had to preserve his strength, wait for the opportunity, and then give the opponent a fatal blow.

The soldiers watching the battle on both sides shouted hoarsely, the strong man in charge of beating the war drums had sore, and the two people on the field were still fighting inseparably and equally.

As time went by, Lang Zhendong and the generals on the side of the Protector Army even raised their hearts to their throats. They knew that General Yan was old after all, and his opponent was in the prime of life, and he would not lose his strength. The longer the time drags on, the more unfavorable it will be for General Yan.

The change in the battle situation on the field was indeed as they feared, after a hundred moves, the old general's face gradually flushed, although he was desperately trying to control it, he still couldn't help coughing slightly, the endless strength in his body seemed to disappear suddenly, and the move was obviously sluggish.

Li Jing's eyes suddenly brightened, he keenly captured the other party's lack of follow-up, he knew that the long-awaited opportunity was in front of him! With a burst of shouts, Li Jing's thick beard stood upright, and his arms once again exerted force at the same time, no longer holding back to launch a fierce attack.

General Yan was obviously gradually exhausted, and he was tired of coping with it in a hurry, giving up all offensive moves and switching to defense. Even so, it is still full of dangers, life hangs by a thread, and the situation is precarious.

Lang Zhendong and the lieutenant generals of General Yan really can't stand it, and the current situation can't take care of so much, it's important to save the boss first! Lang Zhendong ignored the faintly painful arrow wound on his shoulder, and rushed forward with his gun. The lieutenant generals also followed closely behind with their horses and whips, eager to have wings on their backs at this time.

The old general Yan on the field saw that he couldn't hold on at this time, so he took the risk of attacking a few moves, turning his horse and running away.

Although Li Jing had the advantage, he was still very careful, and he also carefully dealt with the last few wild attacks of the old horseman's dying struggle, and when he found that these were all false moves, General Yan had already turned his horse and escaped from the land of a stone's throw. Li Jing was angry but also excited, he yelled: "Where did the old man escape?!" ”。 Urging the war horse under the crotch, the three-pronged and two-edged knife in his hand was like an arrow off the string, and chased and killed.

Seeing that the back horse's head was about to touch the front horse's tail, Li Jing quickly made a calculation in his heart: should he split him in half with an oblique knife or directly stab him in three holes from the back of his heart? Which move can show my domineering and heroic spirit more? Haha, carrying the head of this old horseman, go back to see Uncle Gao Huang and Wang Heming's wreck, what kind of expressions should the two of them have? After my triumphant return, how will the Heavenly Father make me a knight and a guest? Will the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty bow down to me and throw themselves to the ground? He raised the three-pointed two-edged knife in his hand high and slashed down mercilessly.

Lang Zhendong and the others, who rushed to the rescue, only felt that their eyes were dark, and thought: It's over! It's too late.

Facts have proved that "Tianzun Protector is invincible and invincible general" Li Jing really thought too much, and at the moment when he swung his sword with all his strength, General Yan, who was originally hunched and bowed and rode on a horse, seemed to be running for his life with all his might, suddenly straightened his waist and turned around. I saw his silver beard fluttering, and his eyes were like lightning. With a shake of his hands, the golden gun in his hand stabbed straight into Li Jing's heart with a thunderous momentum.

This time, the horse was shot, like a tiger roaring and a dragon roaring, lightning and thunder. This shot was like lightning and stone fire, shocking the world and crying ghosts and gods.

The originally bright tip of the spear was inserted from Li Jing's front heart, poked out from the back, and turned into a bright and dazzling red.

Li Jingyuan's eyes widened immediately, he couldn't believe what was happening in front of him. The three-pointed two-edged knife in his hand was still a few feet away from the back of the old horseman's head, but he was no longer able to cut it.

Li Jing, who was more than a foot tall, suddenly fell off his horse, and the soldiers of both sides remained silent in front of the two armies, no one burst into cheers, and everyone was stunned by the scene in front of them.

Lang Zhendong and several lieutenant generals who followed closely behind slammed their horses and cried with joy.

General Yan raised the big gun in his hand and shouted loudly: "The soldiers of the Protector Army listen to my orders, the whole army charges, and there is no piece of armor left behind to kill the thieves!" ”。

With the shouting and killing sound like a tsunami, the huge phalanx of the New Army for the Protector of the Country roared, and everyone rushed towards the Taiping Army with swords and guns.

There was a riot in the camp of the Taiping army, and the soldiers who had lost their commander looked at each other in fear.

In Uncle Gao's handsome tent, Gao Quan, who had just been bandaged, was still lying on the low bamboo couch, and Wang Heming took a round stool and sat aside.

Suddenly, the curtain was lifted, and the original captain who reported the news rushed in, this time he learned to be obedient, and took the initiative to give up the praise of the Heavenly Father, and deleted the honorific titles of Uncle Gao and General Wang, and said bluntly: "Uncle Gaohuang, General Wang: The big thing is not good!" Our reinforcements were defeated, scattered and fled, General Li was beheaded, and the thief army is currently killing in the direction of our camp! ”。

Wang Heming jumped up in shock, but poor Uncle Gao Quangao, but he couldn't jump up if he wanted to, so he could only open his mouth wide and lie there dancing.

Wang Heming frowned tightly and let out a long sigh, although he was deeply dissatisfied with Li Jing's rudeness, but no matter how he said it, he was also a minister, and it was inevitable that there was a feeling of sadness about the death of a rabbit and a fox, and the sadness of a dead lips and cold teeth.

He hurriedly bent down and saluted Uncle Gao, who was lying on the bamboo couch: "Marshal, this place is not suitable for a long time, let's evacuate quickly!" ”。

Gao Quan lamented weakly: "I am in such a situation now, I can't ride a horse!" General Wang has no way, why can't he abandon me? ”

Wang Heming hurriedly said: "Uncle Huang, don't worry, no matter what kind of difficulties you encounter, I, Wang Heming, will never give up on the handsome!" I'll arrange for a carriage to escort you with you. ”

The soldiers of the Protector Army were overjoyed, and this battle was the happiest since the beginning of the war. The Taiping army had no intention of fighting at all, and rushed to escape. There was hardly any decent resistance, and the Protector soldiers only quickened their speed to catch up, and harvested a lot of heads, which was even easier than going to the ground to cut wheat on dog days.

"Sweeping the four seas to promote our country's mighty Heavenly Dynasty, the mighty soldiers and horses" Gao Quan, Uncle Gao, lying in a tightly covered carriage, clenched his teeth in pain, and there were not beads of sweat dripping from his forehead. The escape was full of hardships, and the beginning was fine, but then the retreating brigade somehow panicked and walked up the mountain road, and the carriage was even more bumpy, and his wounds were broken again.

These were still within the range he could bear, and what frightened him the most was the shouting and killing sound from far and near in the rear. At first, the sound of killing just fell far behind the car, the sound was loud and small, far and near, and then it came from front to back, left and right, and it sounded like it was getting closer and closer, and he even heard the crisp crash of weapons as the soldiers were fighting.

With a "bang", the wheel seemed to be crushed into some protruding hard object, Gao Quan was bounced up violently, and fell down heavily, and his tears flowed in pain. Fortunately, there was no shouting around to kill, but strangely, I couldn't even hear the human voice except the sound of horses' hooves! He struggled to climb in front of the car and lifted the curtain. He shouted with difficulty: "General Wang, General Wang, can you stop for a moment, I want to find saliva to drink." ”

All he could answer was the whirring sound of the wind, and his eyes widened in surprise, and he was instantly stunned by what he saw.

In front of the horse, the driver of the car was long gone, only these frightened madmen pulled him on a rugged and bumpy mountain road, and the guards who had been hugging him before were all gone. Gao Quan thought with great horror in his heart: Where is General Wang Heming? Say yes and never give up? Is there anyone in this world who can be trusted?!

Seeing that several startled horses in front of him suddenly turned around and rushed straight towards the edge of the cliff, Uncle Gaohuang, who was in a hurry, shouted hoarsely: "Stop! Stop it! Ben Shuai orders you, stop me! ”。

Unfortunately, the brutes could not understand human language at all, and with a loud "boom" sound, the carriage tumbled and fell into the cliff, and soon fell into pieces, scattered into pieces of wood.

In the camp of the Red Turban Army on the shore of Hongze Lake, Guan Yu and several lieutenants sat on the ground. He held the dagger given to him by Yun Niang in his hand and gently tapped the ground and said: "To completely exterminate this gang of bandits, it is not enough to just put up a fence and wait for the rabbit!" We must take the initiative to attack, and the first step is to find out where the bandits are hiding on the island in the middle of the lake and the surrounding areas, and at the same time hurry to build a big war ship and form our Dachu naval army, so that we can do it once and for all. ”

Several lieutenant generals nodded one after another, and Du Zhongnian clenched his fists and said: "According to the general's orders, we have summoned all the skilled craftsmen we can through the imperial court, but in a few months, I am afraid that the construction of the warship will be difficult to complete." ”

Guan Yu waved his hand and said, "You and General Yao are responsible for supervising this matter, and if necessary, you can send our brothers to help at any time." As for the island in the middle of the lake, General Ben plans to go there himself. ”

Everyone exclaimed: "Handsome, don't do it." First, if you are not familiar with the place, it is a question of whether you can land on the island. Second, this bandit's nest is extremely dangerous, you are the master of an army, how can you act so risky? ”。

Guan Yu smiled: "If you don't enter the tiger's den, you can get a tiger?" Ben Shuai is the only suitable candidate, you are brave and fierce on horseback, and you are far worse than me if you do this! The commander of the island has his own way, he only needs to bring three or five guards, and it is easy to show his feet when there are too many people. ”
