The two of them put away the rope and hung it on the inner wall again, this time the downward movement Pang Tong won, and he fell to the ground and smiled proudly. Xue Yue said: "You are heavier than me." ”

Pang Tong ignored her. The houses on the land in the sleeping city where the two of them went were made of a mixture of earth and stone, and all the houses were flat-roofed and had wooden doors, which seemed to be quite elegant. But their windows are also curtains of cloth and leather. The two moved quickly, avoiding the patrols. Going deep inside, I found a relatively large room. This large, heavily guarded, brazier-filled house is at first glance the place where the most powerful people live. The two quickly rushed over and, without hesitation, rushed through behind one of the soldiers and threw themselves into the window. The soldier turned warily, but saw nothing, and nodded to the earnest soldier opposite, who seemed to know what he wanted to ask, and shrugged his shoulders.

The guard felt that his feelings might be caused by the night breeze blowing. But in the house, the patriarch Lun'er was sleeping on a bamboo mat on the ground, and he had not slept well due to his recent nervous tension, so he was slowly sitting up and sighing. Suddenly, he saw two dark nights standing around him, and when he was about to scream, Pang Tong had already squatted down and covered his mouth.

"I am the messenger of the Ren clan, don't panic."

After hearing the male voice say this, Lun Er breathed a heavy sigh of relief. He got up to get a kerosene lamp, but was stopped by Pang Tong.

"It's probably a good thing not to have to go through the trouble and not let others find out. To make a long story short, I'm the chief of the Ren clan. ”

Lun Er sighed: "Why did the Great Patriarch come in person, it's too dangerous, right?" ”

"Don't doubt it, I'm a phoenix. Have you ever sent a spy? ”

Lun Er, who was kneeling on the mat, said: "Of course, I haven't heard back from you, and I haven't seen the spies come back, and there are already people in the clan who want to surrender." ”

"Your spies must have been killed. The Kun people are closely monitoring your city walls, and it is very difficult for anyone to let the city now be besieged, and it is difficult for them to escape. ”

"But how did you get in?"

"Came in like you were in your house."

Lun Er felt that the person next to him seemed to be almost as terrifying as a requirer, and he couldn't help but foam at the mouth.

"What should the Great Patriarch do now?"

"The second watch two days later, remember, it's the second watch. You open the city gate and line up directly outside the city gate, the walls are covered with archers, and then you order people to challenge outside the Kun village. ”

"We're probably no match for them."

"I know this, as long as you do what I say, you will naturally have a clever plan." Pang Tong whispered. "All you need to do is ......"

He said carefully, Lun Er nodded and said, "Just do what the patriarch said, my whole clan is in your hands, please be sure to succeed." ”

After the discussion was settled, Pang Tong and Xueyue flew out of the window again. They were dressed in black, like silent devils in the night. Lun Er immediately ran out of the house, and the soldier could not understand. I saw that the patriarch walked to the window where they had just come out, and there was a soldier standing a few feet away, and under such a dense defense, the two of them came in as if they were in a no-man's land.

"Didn't you see any suspicious people?"

The guards shook their heads.

Lun Er felt the cold air coming out of his back, and couldn't help but shiver. Today's secret meeting left him with a deep impression on the Great Patriarch of the Ren Clan, a mysterious man.

On the appointed day, at the time of the second watch, when all the high-level officials of the Duolun clan thought it was a foolish thing to open the door. Lun Er resolutely ordered the city gate to be opened, and the army lined up against the city wall, and the wall was full of archers, and ordered a horse to challenge outside the gate of the Kun village.

The gate of the Kun village was wide open, and in the case of doubt, the leading commander Kunqiu still waved his army south and approached the city under the condition of expanding his self-confidence. The two armies faced each other, and the flames were dotted all over the ground, looking down like two different fire camps. The Duolun are rectangular because they lean against the wall, while the Kun are circular and more casual.

Kunqiu came to the front of the battle with a big hammer and said, "Lun'er, surrender quickly, otherwise your entire clan will be wiped out!" ”

Unexpectedly, the sound came down from the wall.

"Arrogance!"

In an instant, the feather arrow flew down, and Kunqiu hurriedly turned his horse back, but unexpectedly, an arrow hit the horse's buttocks, and the men and horses fell to the ground together. When the soldiers hurried to the rescue, the Duolun clan launched a charge, and the two armies collided, and Kunqiu returned to the battle under the cover of his own people in embarrassment, and immediately began to command and dispatch the army. After all, the Kun people have been on the battlefield for a long time, and there are many people, and the Duolun people were pressed and beaten for a while.

But the good times did not last long, its big village suddenly caught fire, the cavalry reported to Kunqiu, Kunqiu's face showed surprise, the north suddenly burst into flames, and the sound of horses' hooves shook the heavens and the earth. He calmed down and ordered the infantry in the rear to turn around and resist the enemy.

"The army of the Ren clan is here!"

Jin Xuan led more than 10,000 cavalry to stab the enemy's back and disperse the infantry who were in a hurry. The Kun people were attacked from head to end, and they had no direction for a while. Kunqiu looked north and south on the horse, and sometimes he was so anxious that he could only scold the herald. But no matter how hard he tried, it was in vain. When the Duolun tribe saw that someone came to the rescue, they fought to the death.

At the same time, after learning that the Ren army was going south, the soldiers in the two big villages of the Liaoman tribe who immediately reflected poured out, and went to the Ren Dazhai first, and the two armies joined forces outside the village, wanting to break the big village with one blow when no one was around, but when they arrived at the gate of the village, they saw that the gate was open, and they looked defenseless inside. Liao Guang remembered the ambush vividly, so he gave up attacking the village, drove his troops to the south to rescue the emergency, and let the infantry behind the palace prevent the cavalry from galloping out of the village to sneak attack.

Unexpectedly, 5,000 infantry of Pang Tong's army sneaked out of Dazhai in advance and lay in ambush in the grass under the color. When the vast army passed by majestically, ambushes rose in all directions and surrounded and killed them. The Liaoman tribe thought that the Ren tribe army was there, and panicked. And after a while, the Ma Bujun of the Ren nationality who galloped from the Dazhai behind rushed over under the encouragement of the sound of the horn and crashed into the chaos of the Liaoman tribe. Pang Tong rode into the enemy formation, his two-handed sword seemed to have eyes, and he slashed with his hand, dozens of enemy soldiers fell to the ground, he had already rushed into the core of the enemy formation, and shouted: "Those who descend will not be killed!" "Some of the soldiers of the small tribes wavered, and thus shattered the defensive front of the Liaoman tribe.

Under the leadership of Pang Tong, the Ren cavalry killed the core of the enemy's Chinese army and captured Liaoguang alive. Unexpectedly, Liao Guang was greedy for life and afraid of death, and he actually shouted: "Surrender!" Surrender! "This led to an early end to the war, with most of the Jianning troops surrendering and the rest being killed. The small tribes don't seem to feel much about surrendering, but many of the people in the Liaoman tribe have a disdain for Liaoguang.

Under the city of the Duolun, the war continues. Pang led the victorious cavalry to kill, exacerbating the defeat of the arrogant Kun people. In the end, the Kun lost the war at a heavy cost of more than 50,000 dead and wounded, and the rest of the people surrendered and became prisoners. Kunqiu was trampled to death by his own iron hooves in the chaotic battle.

Pang Tong walked on the top of the Duolun wall, wearing leather armor and holding a sword in his hand. Lun Er immediately walked up to him and bowed his head and said, "The great patriarch is really wise and powerful!" ”

"It's all something we agreed on, and it's not my work."

"Now I'll leave Xinggu County as soon as possible."

"Wrong, the main force of the Liaoman tribe was broken by our army, and the Kun tribe was defeated. In this case, how can there be a reason for us to quit. Quickly put your troops in order, and listen to my orders. Zhang Bang appeased the members of the tribe and claimed that half of Xinggu County was already the territory of my Ren tribe, and now I was going to launch a general attack on the Kun people. You send a document to the large and small tribes of the county, and those who are willing to submit will be treated equally, and those who are unwilling will wait until the Kun tribe is defeated and then discussed. ”

"Yes!"

Pang Tong imprisoned nearly 100,000 captives in Duolun City, and he separated 60,000 of them from the small tribes who were attached to the Liaoman and Kun tribes, and after being treated with good wine and meat, he ordered the members of the small tribes to send people to their respective tribes to report that the Ren tribe had occupied the entire Xinggu County and wanted to carry out a final siege on the Kun people. Almost all of the captives of the small tribes claimed allegiance to the Ren, but Pang Tong could see that those of Jianning County still had to be kept under good surveillance, and he only included the captives of Xinggu County under his command.

Pang Tong marched west to the Xinggu county town of Tanfeng County, and the 20,000 defenders in the city did not surrender. Pang Tong had a plan and ordered 20,000 people to march to the city to challenge, and the enemy soldiers did not come out. He asked these soldiers and horses to go down to the village five miles to the east, and ordered people to challenge them for several days. The guards in the city thought that the army of the Ren tribe was just like that. Moreover, Pang Tong deliberately let some old and weak soldiers follow him to besiege the city and shout, and at night he collected his troops and returned to the village. One day, they went to challenge again. Kunlong, the leading general in the city, opened the city gate and went out, and Pang Tongjun fled all the way to Dazhai, Kunlong saw that the soldiers and horses of the Ren tribe were thin and weak, so he boldly marched to attack the village. The guards in the village were all weak at first, but the soldiers who poured out of the village were all elite soldiers. Moreover, a large number of war horses appeared outside the wall, galloping and surrounding it. Some of the fences seemed to have not been fixed, and they were all torn down by the strength of the Ren soldiers in the village. The cavalry surrounded and killed, and the momentum was like a bamboo. Kunlong, who knew what was planned, led dozens of horsemen to break through the defense line, but was finally shot dead by the crossbowman and fell not far from the village. Pang Tong also had some men and horses attacking the city at this time, which can be said to be started on two roads. After the ladder on the wall on the other side of the city wall, the head of the wall was occupied, and the soldiers of the Ren tribe looked inside, and there were not many soldiers of the Kun tribe below, and the Kunlong took everyone away, and their killing thoughts for a while had to be cold, and they began to pull out all the enemy's flags one by one, and planted the flags of their own Ren tribe. At this time, some of Kunlong's cavalry retreated, and when they saw that the walls were full of the banners of the Ren clan, they were so frightened that they had to flee in all directions.

Most of the Kunlong people were Kun people, and almost all of the 20,000 people were wiped out, and a few surrendered. After taking the county seat, the Ren clan posted a list of people. Some of the nearby tribes immediately sent envoys to negotiate the matter of taking refuge.
