The shouts of killing all over the mountains and fields made the West Vietnamese Ping Coalition Army feel trembling from the bottom of their hearts. Don't look at the numerical advantage of the coalition forces, but they are weaker than a step in combat effectiveness. But even so, Zhao Pingdu's coalition still has a slight advantage. After all, the rush just now made Zhou Long's department lose a lot in the rain of arrows. Besides, these old birds are used to fighting immediately, and they are also a little uncomfortable in the face of scattered battles in the mountains and forests.

Chen Zhanxuan rushed down with a thousand guards, and their joining did not change much in the entire battle situation. Although this group of recruits is very courageous, their combat effectiveness is extremely low.

The sound of killing in the entire Mibo Mountain shook the sky, and the forest at the foot of the mountain was in a mess of melee. Both sides are chasing each other, and they are doing their best to win in the end. The battle lasted for most of the hour, and each other's forces were constantly decreasing.

Zhou Long brandished his sword and stared at his reddened eyes, and his arms were a little numb. He knew that if he continued like this, even if he won this battle, he might not have many men left. But Zhou Long didn't have any way at all, this kind of melee was all about courage and bravery, and neither side dared to show the slightest weakness. Even if one of the guards fled, it was likely to show the rout of the entire army like an ant breaking its embankment.

At this moment, an old bird in the capital city killed one of the enemy heralds, and he himself rolled into a pool of blood from exhaustion. The veteran gasped for a few moments, and his eyes suddenly lit up. As soon as he stretched out his hand, the veteran of Lidu City pulled out a handful of orders from the waist of the enemy herald. Regardless of the fact that each faction uses horns to convey military orders, each faction has its own horn commands. And in every battle, the intention of the order is generally notified at short notice to avoid being confused by the enemy's order. However, in the absence of notice, the general order is the main one.

The veteran of Lidu City picked up the horn and sounded the order to retreat without saying a word. The timbre of Nanping's call is different from that of Great Xia, which is sharp and loud, while Xiyue's horn is low and deep. And Nanping's order horn is made of fishbones, with a penetrating power in the timbre.

As soon as the order sounded, the Nanping guards who were in a fierce battle suddenly became confused. Immediately afterwards, many people began to flee in all directions. The people and horses of Xiyue were also stunned when they heard the order, and Zhao Pingdu did not notify the special horn command at all before coming. Now that the call to evacuate is sounding, they are also a little stupid. After all, the main leader of the troops this time will be Zhao Pingdu, and everything must be subject to Nanping's order.

Bai Shiqi, the general of Xiyue, heard that this was the sound of Nanping's fishbone order, and couldn't help but scold angrily.

"It's all like this, where the are you going? Bastard, if you want my West Vietnamese soldiers and horses to fight alone, don't even think about it. Someone came, and ordered the brothers to evacuate. They all followed Lao Tzu to snatch chariots and horses, and how much they could run. Back in Molan City, Lao Tzu must ask Mo Kun to give us an explanation. ”

The order that sounded in the chaos made Zhao Pingdu even more angry, he knew that blowing the evacuation order in this situation was simply self-defeating. But Zhao Pingdu found that the place where the order was blown was the location of Bi Weide's team.

Zhao Pingdu suddenly scolded angrily, "Paralyzed, after the war, Lao Tzu must behead Bi Weide, this bastard." Someone, blow the order for a decisive battle, law enforcement team, those who flee without permission, there is no mercy! ”

As soon as Zhao Pingdu's voice fell, he didn't expect the order to evacuate sounded on the battlefield again, but this time it was the low and thick sound of the horn of Xiyue.

"Bastards, they're all fucking bastards, Lao Tzu is the commander of the soldiers and horses this time. Come and blow the order for Lao Tzu to continue fighting. Whoever dares to evacuate will be beheaded by military justice! ”

A hurried order sounded again, but the guards in the fierce battle were already confused. When the first order sounded, someone had already left their opponents and fled for their lives. What's more, when the soldiers and horses of West Vietnam heard their orders, they no longer paid attention to Zhao Pingdu's orders at all.

The chaotic orders suddenly made the coalition guards lose their fighting spirit, and they ran around like headless flies one by one. Zhou Long immediately seized the opportunity, and the generals of Lidu City carried horns with them, and sometimes they scattered the heralds in the fierce battle, so they could only give orders by themselves.

Zhou Long also sounded the order for a general attack, and everyone suddenly became more vigorous. In the face of the enemy soldiers who were still resisting, Hu Zhanchao took the lead in shouting the unique killing decision of the capital city. The simple tones, the short voices, every soldier who heard it shouted to the rhythm. For a time, the entire battlefield was filled with this kind of chilling killing duel.

In the blink of an eye, Zhou Long's army turned the tide of the battle. Zhao Pingdu saw that the general trend had gone, and he couldn't help roaring angrily while being sad and indignant.

"Lao Tzu galloped on the battlefield all his life, but he didn't expect to fall to the foot of Mibo Mountain. Bi Weide, Lao Tzu will not let you go. Brothers, fight with them. ”

Zhao Pingdu brandished his sword, ready to sacrifice the last tragedy. Behind him, the commander of the personal guard hugged Zhao Pingdu.

"Master Fu Shuai, you must evacuate. The fault of failure is not on you, if you go back and state the facts, I am afraid that you will never be able to wash away this sin. Master Fu Shuai, we protect you, evacuate! ”

"Let go of me, Lao Tzu has no face to go back, let go~!"

Ignoring Zhao Pingdu's anger, the commander of the pro-soldier guard forcibly took Zhao Pingdu and rushed out of the forest. Under the desperate protection of the soldiers, he finally captured a few war horses. The coalition soldiers and horses fled, and Zhou Long and others also rushed out of the mountains and forests to chase and kill the enemy.

"Brothers, don't let them take the horses. Kill it! ”

Zhou Long shouted loudly, but his voice had long been drowned out in the shouting of killing. However, there was no need for Zhou Long's order, the old birds in Lidu City had already rushed in the direction of the war horse with swords and guns.

As a battle drew to a close, cheers erupted from the east cliff when the guards in West Vietnamese armor fled in all directions.

Zhou Long searched around, and when he saw Qian Chong, he immediately ordered and shouted, "Old Qian, take your people to chase and kill thirty miles, how many can you kill." Remember, at most thirty miles, you must return. ”

Qian Chong had already stepped on the war horse, and when he heard Zhou Long's order, he immediately raised his war knife in exhaustion, "Listen to the order of the headquarters, follow me to chase and kill!" ”

For a time, thousands of horsemen followed Qian Chong and chased after the fleeing enemy soldiers. There were corpses all over the field under Mibo Mountain, and Zhou Long saw that the overall situation had been decided, so he sat down weakly against a big tree.

The battlefield gradually subsided, and many people were tired and paralyzed in pools of blood. Zhou Long also did not order to clean up the battlefield and count the personnel, he wanted to let the brothers rest for a while. Everyone tried their best in the battle just now, and they all collapsed to the ground tired.

A figure walked towards Zhou Long, Zhou Long raised his eyes and couldn't help but be stunned, "Zhan Xuan? How are you on my team? ”

Chen Zhanxuan hugged his fists with a gasp, "General Long, just now in the mountains and forests, your brother almost stabbed Lao Tzu in the back. ”

Chen Zhanxuan said, sat down next to Zhou Long, and continued, "I saw you in a scuffle on the mountain, so I rushed down with my brothers. But~ I'm afraid few of my brothers are alive. ”

Zhou Long looked at Chen Zhanxuan, and then suddenly realized, "It turns out that your kid is on the mountain, no wonder you are familiar with the orders of the capital city." Damn, I thought you would go to Delon's bastard after you left Lidu City. ”

"I am now the commander of the city defense of Melan City, here is my root, of course I want to go back to Melan City. Ah Long, you risked death to save each other, I thank you on behalf of the father and elder on the mountain. ”

"! You're kind to me. Zhan Xuan, are you okay on the mountain? By the way, is Uncle Seven on the mountain? ”

"There have been a few fights on the hill, and I should be able to hold it. Everyone was scared at first, but now it's much better. However, Uncle Seven was not on the mountain, he stayed in Molan City. Why, Uncle Seven didn't contact you? ”

Zhou Long shook his head, "I have no fixed place to live these days, and it is estimated that Uncle Seven will not be able to contact him." With Uncle Seven's ability, it should be okay to hide in the city. Zhan Xuan, is there any other passage on the top of the mountain, I estimate that Mokun Lu Mu will have to send troops and horses to come. In my opinion, you should get out of this area in time. Those bastards can do anything, if they really set fire to the mountain, I'm afraid~! ”

Chen Zhanxuan shook his head, "The top of the East Cliff is like an isolated island, and there is only one way to enter and exit. Moreover, we simply can't leave. Not to mention the slow movement of the elderly, weak women and children, it takes several days just to transport the grain from the mountains. What's more, there is no hiding place at all anywhere else except here. It's better to stick here and wait for the arrival of Duan Shuai's army. ”

"I'm afraid, Mo Kun and Lu Mu won't give you this time. Moreover, my soldiers and horses cannot assist you in fighting in the mountains. Zhan Xuan, it's not that I can't save me when I see death, and it's not because I'm afraid of death. If we stay in the mountains, it can only make Mokun Lu Mu even more crazy. Zhou Long explained.

"Aaron, even if you want to stay, I'm afraid that several adults on the mountain will not agree. We are all people who have come out of the war, and life and death have long been downplayed. To tell the truth, if they really dare to burn the mountain, Mo Kun and Lu Muding will be condemned by the world. After all, the mountains are full of unarmed people, and our city defense is not a soldier in the eyes of the world. But if you want to go into the mountains, it's a different story. ”

Zhou Long nodded, "Yes, setting fire to the enemy army and burning innocent people are completely different from the views of the people of the world. But I, Zhou Long, can't watch these bastards act recklessly, from now on, the bottom of the mountain will be guarded by me. When my people are exhausted, it is estimated that they will no longer fight the ideas of the people on the mountain. ”

"Fart!" Chen Zhanxuan couldn't help but scolded angrily, "Ah Long, is your brain confused?" They set up this game to target your people at all. If you fight to the death here, you'll fall into their trap. I saw very clearly from the top of the mountain, such a layout, originally did not intend to burn the mountain. Aaron, you must leave. Otherwise, no one will forgive you for your stupidity, even if you fight it out. ”

Zhou Long looked at Chen Zhanxuan, of course he understood that this was Mokun Lu Mu's conspiracy. But such a trap made him very helpless. If the other party really set fire to the mountain, Zhou Long would probably feel guilty for the rest of his life.

"Zhan Xuan, can you cut down a separation zone as the war book says? Even if a wildfire is lit, it can at least prevent it from spreading to the top of the mountain. Zhou Long asked.

Chen Zhanxuan smiled bitterly, "My General Long, the book of war refers to the grassland, and this is a mountain forest. You know how hard Lao Tzu worked, only to cut down a few trees that were more than one person thick as rolling logs to repel the enemy. ”

Zhou Long was right when he thought about it, there was a lack of iron tools in the mountains, and even if there were suitable tools, I am afraid that it would take at least one or two months to open a separation zone in this dense mountain forest.

Zhou Long sighed, "Let's not talk about these things for now, when we finish cleaning up the battlefield, I will go up the mountain with you to meet Pang Gang Fan Cheng and other bosses, and ask them what they mean." ”

"Okay, in today's battle, there shouldn't be people sent from Melan City. Clean up the battlefield first, and I'll ask the people on the mountain to make something to eat, and I'll let the brothers send it down. ”

After the two finished speaking, they stood up, Zhou Long looked around and shouted loudly, "Hu Zhanchao, Huo Deyang?" Where have the people gone? ”

A guard with a bloodstained face hurriedly ran over, "General, Lord Hu and Lord Zhan have been injured and are treating their wounds. ”

Zhou Long was stunned, "Is the injury serious?" ”

"Lord Zhan is seriously injured, Lord Hu is fine."

"What about Huo Deyang?"

The guard shook his head, "I didn't see Lord Huo." ”

Zhou Long's heart tightened, and he beckoned to a hundred-man commander, "Immediately lead people to clean up the battlefield and look for Huo Deyang." From now on, you will temporarily take on the position of Thousand Cavalry. ”

"No!" The captain of the hundred people agreed, and quickly organized the manpower to prepare to clean up the battlefield.

Zhou Long and Chen Zhanxuan followed the guards and walked towards the place where Hu Zhan had treated Zhan's injuries. The two of them looked over and saw that Hu Zhanchao was fine, and several knife wounds on his body were not critical. But Zhan Yimo, a few knives in the chest and abdomen, looked like he was about to die. Zhou Long was sad and was just about to say a few words of comfort, when he heard a guard report that they had found Huo Deyang. However, only a corpse was found. Huo Deyang was hit by more than a dozen arrows and had already died of anger.

Zhou Long trembled slightly in distress, this is all his old team. Although every battle is accompanied by a farewell, Huo Deyang's loss made Zhou Long a little unbearable. Enduring his grief, Zhou Long personally inspected it, and he knew that the losses in this battle would never be small. Zhou Long prayed, trying to minimize some of the battle damage.

After Qian Chong returned, after careful counting, Zhou Long couldn't help crying. Nearly 30,000 horses, nearly 13,000 were lost in the battle. More than 3,000 people were injured of varying degrees and had to withdraw from the battle sequence. Of the 1,000 guards brought down by Chen Zhanxuan, less than 70 people were left alive.

Chen Zhanxuan was also very sad, but he knew that it was not easy to win this battle. After all, the enemy has 50,000 or 60,000 soldiers, and it is arranged in advance. Most of Zhou Long's troops were lost under the rain of arrows, and he fought in the mountains and forests until he didn't lose much. No one went to count the corpses of the enemy, and roughly estimated that there were about 20,000 people. As for the number of people chased and killed on the road of Qian Chong, it is immeasurable, and many of them were injured and fled into the mountains and forests.

A hard-fought battle came to an end, and although it was won, the makeshift camp was filled with grief and sorrow. Fortunately, everyone is used to seeing life and death, so they just bid farewell to their brothers silently. But on the east cliff, there was a cry. The people of Melan City, who were originally peaceful and wealthy, truly saw the cruelty of war.

In Molan City, Mo Kun and Lu Mu were all blue-faced, and the generals of the two armies were all gathered together. Fu Shuai, Zhao Pingdu and Bai Shiqi Bi Weide tied up and knelt in the lobby.

Mo Kun's forehead was bruised, and he couldn't help but say angrily, "Fifty thousand horses were ambushed in advance, and they were beaten like this by others, and you still have the face to come back?" ”

Bai Shi stiffened his neck, "Lord Dudu, the last general will not accept it!" ”

Lu Mu's gloomy face was silent, since this battle was led by Mo Kun, he wanted to see how Mo Kun handled this matter.

Mo Kun held back his anger, "As a general, don't you even have the courage to admit defeat!" ”

"Master Mo, originally we still had the advantage. However, your men have sounded the call to withdraw their troops. As a military advisor, you should know what this order means in that situation. Shiraishi said loudly.

In the hall, all the generals began to discuss. There was a murderous aura in Mo Kun's eyes, and he looked at Zhao Pingdu. If it is really like Bai Shiqi said, if he doesn't kill Zhao Pingdu today, Mo Kun must give Lu Mu and everyone an explanation.

"Zhao Pingdu, there is such a thing!" Mo Kun asked coldly.

Zhao Pingdu raised his head sadly and angrily, "Master of the Army, as the commander of the battlefield, it is not a pity to be responsible for the defeat and the final death. However, the last general was not convinced. ”

"You're not convinced?" Mo Kun looked at Zhao Pingdu strangely.

"Master Strategist, Governor Lu, both of you know the layout of this battle. The last general is the main general, and the two generals of Baishi and Bi Weide assist in the defense. But this order was issued by ~ Biweide War Zone. Moreover, the evacuation order sounded immediately after the Baishiqi war zone. My own soldiers can testify that the Admiral is powerless to stop it. ”

Bai Shiqi glared at him, "Nonsense, if you want to evacuate, will we be left alone with our West Vietnamese soldiers and horses to fight." ”

Bi Weide also cried and shouted, "Master Soldier, you are wronged." The last general did not give the order to evacuate at all, and Zhao Pingdu was slandering. ”

Mo Kun's brain was about to explode when he heard it, and he slapped the table angrily, "Shut up for me!" ”

Mo Kun calmed down, he and Lu Mu were not reckless, and asked carefully at the moment. From the beginning of the confrontation to the final evacuation, the two asked in great detail. After asking, Mo Kun and Lu Mu had an inference in their hearts. Both men understood that in that situation, none of the three of them would give the order to evacuate. It seems that this is a trick of others.

However, with the loss of so many soldiers and horses, and even the chariot battalions of the two armies have basically become decorations, Mo Kun must give everyone an explanation. In desperation, Mo Kun could only put the blame on Bi Weide and ordered to be killed on the spot to set an example. Zhao Pingdu also received thirty military sticks, and he was guilty of a major crime. In response to Bai Shiqi, Mo Kun only reprimanded a few words, without any punishment.

Mi Boshan's defeat made Mo Kun and Lu Mu's hearts heavy. After the generals left, Mo Kun looked at Lu Mu and said apologetically.

"Brother Lu, this defeat is all to blame for my incompetence. I hope Brother Lu doesn't mind. ”

"Mr. Mo, victory or defeat is a common thing in soldiers, how can Lu be obsessed with this. I just don't know, what does Mr. Mo think about this matter? Lu Mu asked.

"You're right, it seems that Zhou Long really can't give up the people in the mountains."

"That's right, so I'm suggesting that I continue to use this plan. According to the battle situation, the composition of this army of soldiers and horses is definitely Duan Lang's elite force. We have lost a lot, and presumably Zhou Long's losses are not light. In that case, then destroy this army in one fell swoop. ”

Mo Kun nodded indifferently, "Yes, this army is strong in combat and must not stay." Early tomorrow morning, send out a cavalry battle array to kill. ”

"Mr. Mo, I have a reluctant request below." Lu Mu said.

"Brother Lu, why be polite, please have something to say."

"This time, I'll arrange it!"

Lu Mu looked at Mo Kun, Mo Kun's heart moved, and from Lu Mu's eyes, he saw a trace of cruelty. Mo Kun hesitated for a moment and nodded helplessly. The two armies cooperated, and there were some things that he could not act arbitrarily about. What's more, the defeat of this defeat made it impossible for Mo Kun to compete with Lu Mu for the right to dominate.
