In Yixiang City, Deguang didn't expect Zhou Long to take the initiative to prevent disasters for them. Of course, Deguang will not refuse this kind of good thing. What's more, the enemy of Great Xia is strong and strong, and with the strength of Yixiang City, only by joining forces with Duan Lang can he protect himself. However, Deguang and the others were also shocked by the secrecy of Zhou Long's soldiers and horses. Everyone came under their noses, and they didn't even notice it.

Zhou Long's thousand cavalry guards Hu Zhanchao left Yixiang City, and Deguang ordered Sun Gang to prepare soldiers and horses, waiting for the arrival of Zhou Long's specific implementation plan.

Deguang looked at the veteran Sun Gang and asked uneasily, "Sun Aiqing, if Zhou Long chooses to move far away from the city, I wonder if the soldiers of our army can withdraw in time?" In case it is intercepted by Nanping's soldiers and horses, this will be troublesome. Yixiang City is no better than other forces, and we can't afford to lose. ”

The veteran Sun Gang clenched his fists and said, "Your Majesty, rest assured, this time Weichen personally led the team, and all the cavalry was used." Even if Zhou Long releases our pigeons, Weichen can bring the centaurs back. However, above the city, General Fan Jiachang must do a good job of defense and not give the enemy a chance to take advantage of it. ”

Fan Jiachang bowed down and said, "General Sun, don't worry, as long as our soldiers and horses enter the city, the city will intercept the pursuing soldiers with a rain of arrows." Even if a small number of people followed, they would be slashed by a random knife. ”

After hearing this, Deguang nodded, "If Zhou Long acts according to the strategy, I believe that the soldiers and horses of Nanping will not chase and kill." But we must also prevent Zhou Long from deceiving and deceiving our soldiers and horses out of the city. Sun Aiqing, be careful after leaving the city, in case the dragon soldiers and horses do not appear, you must not fall in love. ”

"Wechen obeys! However, this will not do Duan Lang any good, and Zhou Long should be able to keep his promise. In the current situation, Duan Lang also needs the cooperation of our MixC City. ”

"I hope so."

Deguang didn't dare to fully believe Zhou Long, but in the current situation, Yixiang City was indeed unable to fight against the Nanping army independently. Being able to establish this temporary alliance with Zhou Long far outweighs the disadvantages for Yixiang City.

Deguang and the others waited for Zhou Long's plan, seventy miles away from Yixiang City, Zhou Long led 30,000 soldiers and horses to hide in a mountain forest. The veterans unsaddled their horses unscrupulously, and some even washed their beloved horses. For these veterans, Zhou Long did not particularly emphasize discipline. Because he knew that as long as there was a warning from the surrounding secret sentinels, these seemingly lazy people would be neatly draped in twenty breaths.

Zhou Long was sitting on a slightly flat boulder, Hu Zhanchao had returned, and Zhou Long was listening to his report.

"Your Excellency, Na Deguang has agreed to join forces with the General. However, they only sent a maximum of 50,000 troops to attract the other side. Hu Zhanchao said.

Zhou Long said in a humming voice, "Deguang and Sun Gang are both cautious people, and it is already very good to be able to use 50,000 troops to attract each other." No matter how much you say, I'm afraid you won't be able to deceive the other party into taking the bait. ”

"General, do you think that the support army of Nanping is really going to attack Yixiang City? In that case, let's wait until they're engaged. ”

Zhou Long shook his head, "If this support army really wants to make a move on Yixiang City, they won't make a detour to Huining City." Going directly north from Blue Lake City, it's not easier to get straight to the city. ”

"General, some time ago, that Mokun and Lu Mu have been standing still, now that the reinforcements have arrived, the last general feels that Mokun should choose one as the target." Hu Zhanchao retorted.

"If Mo Kun really wants to storm the Elephant City, he will definitely lead his troops here. It is even said that together with Lu Mu's army, they will fight together. Now that the reinforcements from Nanping are hurrying away, I think they probably want to rush over to join Mokun as soon as possible. But no matter what their purpose is, we must pull the Elephant City into this troubled water. The main forces of Lidu City are fighting in Jingshan City, and it is not a good thing that this side is too calm. Pulling the Elephant City into the water can involve a large number of people in Mokun. ”

"The general is right, no matter what their purpose is, kill their prestige first. Even if you can't eat the reinforcements from Nanping, you have to tear off a piece of meat. ”

"Well, according to the news of the scouts, the reinforcements from Nanping will be able to arrive at Yixiang City tomorrow morning. Go and call Huo Deyang, Zhan Yimo, and Qian Chong, the three thousand cavalry guards, and let's discuss it. Since Deguang agreed to cooperate, choose a favorable position to do it. ”

After Zhou Long finished speaking, Hu Zhanchao agreed, and hurriedly went to beckon the other three thousand cavalry guards to come over to discuss the matter. Hu Zhanchao and Huo Deyang are the four capable generals under Zhou Long. These four people are all from the Black Armor Guard, and it can be said that they have followed Duan Lang through all the wars. Don't look at them, they are not as famous as Gu Fan Xiangtian's eighteen guards in the capital army, but their combat power cannot be underestimated.

When the four thousand cavalry guards arrived, Zhou Long opened the marching map and began to discuss the location of the attack and the battle plan. Before the soldiers and horses came out, Yutai Mingyue specially informed Zhou Long that all means could be implemented according to the situation. As long as the water can be muddied and Mo Kun and Lu Mu are not idle, this will achieve the purpose of the bright moon in Taitai. And what Zhou Long has to do now is to surprise him and completely disrupt Mokun Lu Mu's plan. Even if he attracted hundreds of thousands of foreign armies to them, Zhou Long was fearless. As long as they don't fall into the encirclement of the other party, no one can catch up with this army.

At the lower pass, Mo Kun was also waiting for reinforcements to arrive. Taking advantage of this short opportunity to recuperate, Mo Kun and Lu Mu each sent two hundred scouts, dressed in the costumes of the people of Great Xia, and went to Molan City and other places in advance.

Mo Kun didn't think that the reinforcements in Nanping would be blocked, Duan Lang's army was fighting in Jingshan City, and the only one who could send troops in the southern front area was Yixiang City. But the combat effectiveness of the soldiers and horses of Yixiang City, Mo Kun felt that if they dared to take the initiative to provoke, they were simply going to die. Mo Kun didn't hear it, Zhou Long had already led an elite army to quietly kill back. And Zhou Long put the first target on the reinforcements in Nanping.

In the avenue leading from Huining City to Yixiang City, Nanping soldiers and horses are marching all the way. The commander of the troops and horses was Peng Shanhua, the general of Nanping, who had not participated in any major wars, but had a hereditary title. Peng Shanhua's grandfather once assisted the emperor as the prime minister, and canonized the baron hereditary replacement. In Peng Shanhua's generation, the Peng family abandoned literature and turned to military force to become generals. However, this kind of child of an official eunuch family has never been appreciated by Mo Kun, so he did not have Peng Shanhua's name in the two invasions of Great Xia. But now is the time to employ people, Peng Shanhua took the initiative to ask Ying to lead the troops to help the army division.

The soldiers and horses of Nanping moved forward slowly, and the grain and grass convoy was placed in the middle of the team. Peng Shanhua sat in the chariot, looking at the surrounding scenery as he went. It was the first time he had entered the Great Xia Forte, and compared with Nanping, it had a different taste.

As the team was marching, a scout quickly rushed back, "Lord Baron Qiyu, twenty miles ahead of you to return to Longwan, and found the Great Xia soldiers and horses. There were 50,000 enemy soldiers, all of whom were light cavalry, waving the banner of Sun Zishuai in the city of Yixiang. ”

Peng Shanhua waved his hand and stopped the army, and several generals didn't know why, so they hurriedly came to Peng Shanhua's chariot. Peng Shanhua asked the scout to recount it again, and everyone knew that there was an enemy army appearing.

"Lord Baron, Sun Zi Shuai Qi should be Sun Gang, a veteran of Yixiang City. According to the news and judgment from the military master, Yixiang City should not have the courage to do so. Do you want to send someone to check the surrounding area again, beware of a trap. A general named Ying Shoushan said cautiously.

With a hint of disdain, Peng Shanhua said lightly, "With only 50,000 troops, why worry about it." The details of this hundred million elephant city have been read by this general, and after the death of Prince Daxia Hong, the city is nothing more than a rabble. Since they dare to stop Lord Ben's team, let the sons of all families create their first battle exploits since entering Great Xia. ”

Deputy General Bi Weiluo clasped his fists and said, "Lord Baron, the total strength of Yixiang City is only a few hundred thousand people, even if they all go out of the city, what is there to fear. The last general asked for an order and led his troops and horses to cut off Sun Gang's head. ”

Ying Shoushan hurriedly persuaded, "Lord Baron, according to the marching map, the terrain of Huilong Bay is complicated, although it is not a dangerous place, it is conducive to concealment. It's better to send scouts to observe again, and it's never too late to do it. In case it's a trap, we'd better be prepared. ”

Peng Shanhua looked at several generals, "You say, is this still necessary?" ”

One of them said in a loud voice, "Lord Baron, according to the news of Lord Mokun's military division, the toughest enemy army in Great Xia is fighting in Jingshan City. Even if the Elephant City comes out, its combat effectiveness is very low. The last general is not talented, and he is willing to take the order to go. ”

Adjutant General Bi Weiluo snorted, "What, do you still want to compete with General Ben?" ”

"General Bi, the credit is made, whoever has the ability will take it. As long as the Baron orders it, anyone can go. ”

"It's just, why should you go?"

Seeing that everyone was about to quarrel, Peng Shanhua smiled, "Don't worry, this Great Xia has merit for you to fight." But for now, let's let General Bi fight. Bi Weide, Master Ben ordered you to lead 70,000 soldiers and horses to cut off the head of Sun Gang for me. ”

The deputy general Bi Weide clenched his fists, "Lord Baron, use 70,000 horses to bully them, and the last general only needs to lead 40,000 soldiers and horses, which is enough to kill them." ”

"Good! Ben-sama likes this kind of general who dares to take responsibility. However, this is our first battle into Great Xia, so we can't be careless. Order, the army will take a break for the time being, General Bi, Lord Ben is waiting for your triumphant return. Peng Shanhua said proudly with his fists clenched.

"The last general will not fail in his mission."

After Bi Weide finished speaking, he pulled the reins of his horse and returned to his headquarters, led 40,000 horses, and left the army with a howl. Many generals and generals looked at Bi Weide's department with envy. For the soldiers, this is a great opportunity to make war achievements, and everyone wants to make merits in the war and become famous all over the world. 、

Peng Shanhua ordered the Nanping army to line up the defensive formation and rest in place, and Bi Weide's headquarters soon disappeared. The distance of twenty miles is for the war horse, and it doesn't take half a dozen to reach Huilong Bay.

The veteran Sun Gang saw the dust from a distance, and immediately ordered to set up a defensive formation. Either way, he had to fight before he could retreat. Otherwise, running away before they have fought is too obvious.

"Everyone be careful, once the commander gives the order to retreat, everyone must retreat without fighting. Whoever dares to disobey the order will be dealt with by military law. Sun Gang shouted loudly.

"No!" All the soldiers responded in unison. Most of these 50,000 cavalry battle formations were formed by the new army. Many people say that only fools fall in love with war, and now they can run. Before the battle began, some of the guards began to be afraid.

The veteran Sun Gang was in front of him, thinking that the other party would say a few words of opening remarks first. Unexpectedly, Bi Weide was eager to make meritorious contributions and killed him directly. The veteran Sun Gang glared and shouted loudly.

"Generals, kill me~!"

Both sides fought with cavalry, and the two sides suddenly fought together under the collision of the Nanping army. If you want to talk about combat ability, in fact, Nanping soldiers and horses are not much higher. But the morale of the soldiers and horses in Yixiang City was low, and before the boss started fighting, he first thought of escaping, how to fight. The Nanping army is different, every soldier wants to create the first merit, and the morale is very high.

Nanping's deputy general Bi Weide slashed left and right, and was killing vigorously, when he suddenly heard the other party's messenger guards blow the horn of evacuation. If it was a battle in front of the city, Bi Weide would definitely not pursue. But this place is far away from the Elephant City, how can it be possible to let the other party run away.

"Brothers~ Don't let them run, these heads are all our merits. Kill~ Kill me hard. Bi Weide shouted excitedly.

The guards of Mega Elephant City looked very flustered, but the speed of escape was not slow. Sun Gang soon led his troops to escape from Huilong Bay. The soldiers and horses of Nanping were in hot pursuit, and Bi Weide rushed to the front.

Sun Gang, who was running, saw the woods in front of him and couldn't help but glance back, "Nanping thief, your time of death has arrived." ”

The two sides chased after me, and the soldiers and horses of the two sides in the chase were just about to pass through the woods, when suddenly, the sound of killing in the forest was everywhere, and a cavalry and horses rushed out like hungry wolves. Zhou Long was armed with a war spear, and the four thousand cavalry guards each led a team, and killed Bi Weide's soldiers and horses.

Bi Weide saw that it was not good, and quickly pulled the mount. However, Bi Weide saw that Sun Gang's men and horses did not fight back, and the soldiers and horses of Yixiang City were still desperately fleeing.

"Sons, the other party doesn't have many troops, kill me. Whether they are human or ghost, all of them are left to Lao Tzu.! Bi Weide shouted and took the lead in killing Zhou Long's department.

But as soon as the two sides came into contact, Bi Weide's face suddenly became extremely ugly. He found that the combat power of this team was very different from that of Elephant City. In less than twenty breaths, screams were heard on the battlefield. From the accent, Bi Weide certainly heard that it was the Nanping soldiers and horses who were screaming.

In less than half a pillar of incense, Bi Weide's army was killed and lost his armor, and he had no choice but to quickly evacuate back with the remnants of the defeated army. The opponent's strong combat effectiveness, killing Bi Weide was a little timid. If you continue to fight, let alone the credit, I'm afraid you won't be able to save your life.

Zhou Long did not continue the pursuit, and with an order, the army stopped. In this battle, Zhou Long deliberately did not play his own banner, and the other party didn't know who he met at all.

Zhou Long looked back and forth, and the veteran Sun Gang had already run away without a trace. On the Nanping side, after running into Huilongwan, he couldn't see his figure soon.

"Give the order, stop the pursuit, and withdraw to the northwest."

After Zhou Long gave the order, Hu Zhanchao and others quickly responded. Zhou Long's goal has been achieved, and it would not be a knowing move to go head-to-head with the main reinforcements of others.

After this battle, Nanping Bi Weide's troops lost nearly 20,000 horses. After this battle, I'm afraid that Deguang won't be able to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight. The Nanping reinforcements suffered heavy losses, and this deal was all counted on the head of Delong, the city of Yixiang. It is even said that they are about to face the danger of being besieged.
