Huo Hai rode at the front of the team, and the army behind him still maintained a complete formation in the gallop. A lone eagle hovered in the sky, chirping twice from time to time.

Huo Hai looked at the sun and began to reduce his speed to suppress his position. After all, they are only feints and can rush to the main battlefield in a very short time. According to Lu Mu Mokun's request, Huo Hai needed to intervene after the main battlefield was fully launched. In that case, Fan Jiachang's backlash will be the last straw that will be pressed against the army of Lidu City. If he intervened too early, he might let Duan Lang's troops flee the main battlefield, and this kind of ending was not what Mokun Lu Mu wanted to see.

The lone eagle in the air circled a few times and quickly flew south. No one cared about this lone eagle in the sky, and no one would have thought that a lone eagle would be the ace scout in the Lidu City army. Not only was it flying in the air, but the scouts watching from the treetops of the dense forest in the distance immediately sent a warning signal to Zhou Hu and others in the dense forest after discovering the Huohai army.

Zhou Hu's 10,000 soldiers and horses did not join Duan Lang, and according to the news sent by Duan Lang, he was asked to hide in the surrounding dense forests and follow the Huohai army to cut off his rear road. Seeing the soldiers and horses of the West Yue rolling in, Zhou Hu signaled all the guards to be optimistic about the horses and not to expose the target.

At this time, in the camp of Yixiang City, Zhou Wu's soldiers and horses were all replaced with the standard armor of Yixiang City. Now in Duan Lang's hands, plus Zhou Hu's men and horses and more than 10,000 surrendered troops, there are 40,000 troops. And in Mokun Lu Mu's battle plan, the soldiers and horses led by Huo Hai are also 40,000 troops. But these 40,000 troops can be said to be the current elite division of the West Vietnamese Army. As long as this group of people and horses is destroyed, it is tantamount to cutting off one of Lu Mu's arms.

Outside the handsome tent, Duan Lang wiped a dark iron halberd. This is a weapon specially created by Zhou Guangji in Fengluan Mountain for Duan Lang. In order to let Duan Lang have a weapon suitable for himself, Zhou Guangji personally drew a picture and forged this strange war halberd with fine iron. Zhou Wu returned to the team this time and also brought this halberd over.

Duan Lang cast it a few times, this halberd is very handy, it seems that Zhou Bo still understands his combat characteristics very well. Not only is this halberd sufficient, but the crescent blades on both sides are very sharp. When used, it can be used as both a gun and a knife, and it can also slash opponents like a tomahawk.

Duan Lang was brandishing his halberd when he saw Zhou Wu and Xue Bingtian and other three generals coming over. Duan Lang handed the halberd to Jin Rushi next to him, looked at Zhou Wu and the others and asked.

"How is it, have the soldiers and horses been arranged?"

Zhou Wu hugged his fists, "Everything is arranged, just waiting for the other party to come." ”

Duan Lang nodded, looked at Xue Bingtian and the three of them and said, "Xue Bingtian, the more than 10,000 people in Yixiang City will be handed over to the three of you." When the Huohai army arrives, your battle formation will be used as a backup. However, as long as the military order is given, everyone must fight bravely to kill the enemy, and the army of our capital city would rather die standing than be intimidated by the enemy soldiers. ”

Xue Bingtian and the noble Sun Hongzhan hurriedly clasped their fists, and Xue Bingtian said gratefully, "Thanks to Duan Shuai's trust, he dares to hand over the soldiers and horses of Yixiang City to us." Please rest assured, Duan Shuai, from now on, we are also a member of the army of Lidu City. Even if he dies on the battlefield, he will not embarrass Duan Shuai. ”

Xue Bingtian and the three of them were indeed impressed by Duan Lang's fearless trust, you must know that these soldiers have not yet accepted the mixed formation of Duan Lang's subordinates, in case they turn against the water in the middle of the battle, this will be a fatal blow to Duan Lang. Under normal circumstances, it would never be the general of the headquarters who commanded this surrendered army, but Duan Lang returned the soldiers and horses to the three of them unconditionally, and this trust made Xue Bingtian a little moved.

Duan Lang smiled calmly, "Old Xue, the reason why I trust you is because you and I are both compatriots in Great Xia. In the face of foreign criminals, we are all connected by blood and have the same hatred for the enemy. If you do something to collude with foreign criminals, heaven and earth will not tolerate it, and your ancestors will not agree. I don't need you to be worthy of me, but you need to be worthy of your own conscience. After this battle, if you think that my Duan Lang is not orthodox, you can still return to Yixiang City. ”

Xue Bingtian and the three of them had ochre on their faces, if it weren't for Duan Lang's night attack on the camp, I'm afraid they would do something that would shame their ancestors, as Duan Lang said.

"Duan Shuai rest assured, we know right and wrong in our hearts. As you said last night, Deguang colluded with foreign criminals and was no longer worthy of being the emperor of Great Xia. Huagui clenched his fists and said.

Duan Lang nodded, and as several people were talking, there was a chirp of Dafei in the air. In the eyes of Xue Bingtian and the others, this was just a passing lone eagle that called a few times at random, but after Duan Lang heard it, his face suddenly became serious.

"The opponent's men and horses will arrive immediately, give orders, gather troops and line up outside the camp. Ah Wu, send a herald to follow Lao Xue, they still don't understand the orders of our capital city, and someone needs to convey them. ”

Zhou Wu agreed, and immediately began to assemble troops and horses. After a while, the formation was lined up outside the camp. Duan Lang and the eighteen personal guards were hidden among Zhou Wu's personal soldiers, after all, they were too conspicuous and easy to be recognized by the other party. But Zhou Wu has never shown up, and he is in charge in front of the battle, and Huo Hai will not be suspicious. What's more, even if the other party is suspicious, Duan Lang is confident that he will eat the opponent's 40,000 soldiers and horses.

Not long after Duan Lang's side lined up, he saw dust flying in the distance, and a large army was rolling over. Behind Huo Hai, the banner soldiers held high a flag with the word 'Huo' written on it.

Huo Hai saw from a distance that there was a battle formation outside the camp of Yixiang City, but the number of battle arrays was far less than 70,000 troops. This time, Huo Hai was more relieved, he thought that this was Fan Jiachang's deliberate overture, and only sent part of the troops to suit them. After all, both of them also have to make a show to prevent Duan Lang's scouts around. In case the scouts find out that there is no war here, they will immediately go back and report it, and it is likely that even Fan Jiachang will have to be on guard against Xiangjun at that time. Huo Hai never dreamed that the entire camp of Yixiang City had been replaced with blood, and a big net was waiting for his arrival.

Huo Hai pulled the war horse, and the army behind him slowly stopped. Huo Hai turned around and ordered, "Pass the order, just touch the blade when we fight, don't kill these boys." Although this group of waste is not the top use, it is our friendly army after all. ”

Huo Hai's orders were passed down one by one, don't see that Lu Mu had already made an explanation before the city, Huo Hai was still worried that his subordinates would injure the other party without knowing the severity.

After Huo Hai finished arranging, a dozen horses slowly moved forward, and the army behind him also followed unhurriedly. It didn't feel like a war at all, it looked like a party. The two sides were less than fifty zhang, and Huo Hai stopped.

"I am Huo Hai, the general of the West Vietnamese forward, what about your coach Fan Jiachang, please come forward to talk." Huo Hai was polite, and used a word of invitation.

Zhou Wu looked back at Duan Lang in the team of stealth and pro-soldiers, and asked in a low voice, "Duan Shuai, you can kill it directly." At this distance, you can kill it with one sprint. ”

Duan Lang measured the distance between the two sides, "Ah Wu, the herald guards will first use their bows and crossbows to shoot and kill, but they still have to move forward for about ten zhang." ”

"Understood." Zhou Wu agreed, and suddenly blew out a string of strange whistles.

Zhou Wu's guards heard the sentry order, holding their war spears in one hand, and quietly touching the bow and crossbow at their waists with the other.

Zhou Wu was facing Huo Hai and shouted loudly, "My Fan Shuai is still in the camp, and General Ben will meet you first." ”

Huo Hai snorted in his nose, and said in his heart that you will evacuate to the main battlefield as soon as you fight, and so far the commander has not left the camp, it is simply a rotten person with a group of bear soldiers, which is overwhelmed.

Huo Hai was just about to talk, when suddenly a war horse ran behind him, "General, I found an enemy army behind me." ”

Huo Hai was stunned for a moment, and said in his heart that the main battlefield had not started yet, how could there be enemy troops? Could it be that Duan Lang was afraid that their soldiers and horses would eat the army of Hundred Thousand Elephant City and came to help in the war?

"Enemy troops? How many people did they come? Huo Hai asked.

"The other party didn't raise the flag, and the battle armor was the soldiers and horses of the capital city. From the dust raised, it should be less than 20,000 people. ”

Huo Hai snorted, "Okay, since you want to help Fan Jiachang in the battle, let's take them to sacrifice the flag first." The order was given, and the rear team changed to the front team and prepared to face the battle. Two battle camps were left in front of them to temporarily confront the soldiers and horses of Yixiang City. When the battle is over on Lao Tzu's side, let's continue acting. ”

After Huo Hai gave the order, the formation of the army behind him completely turned around, and Huo Hai said loudly to Zhou Wu.

"Tell your family Fan Shuai, Lao Tzu will eat the soldiers and horses behind him first, and then we will proceed as planned." After Huo Hai finished speaking, without waiting for Zhou Wu to speak, he hit his horse and rushed to the back of the team.

In Huo Hai's opinion, the army of the capital city behind him is the crisis, and as for the soldiers and horses of Yixiang City, even if they have ghosts, the two battle camps are enough to deal with it.

Zhou Wu knew that it was the second brother Zhou Hu who had arrived, and immediately shouted loudly, "We will also score a bowl of this cup of soup." Command, sortie. ”

Duan Lang watched the other party's battle formation begin to change, and said in his heart that this Huo Hai really didn't take the soldiers and horses of Yixiang City in his eyes, and this kind of layout was simply looking for death for them.

Seeing Zhou Wu's army rushing towards this side, one of Huo Hai's lieutenants scolded angrily, "Damn, stop for Lao Tzu, do you hear it!" ”

Zhou Wu didn't answer at all, 20,000 soldiers and horses spread out in formation, and the distance of the first ten zhang was quite a buffer. But after ten zhang, Zhou Wu clamped the war horse and suddenly rushed quickly. The distance of fifty zhang was very short for the cavalry, and in the blink of an eye, the difference between the two sides was only less than fifteen zhang.

"Shoot!"

Zhou Wu gave an order, and the guards who were holding a war spear in one hand showed the arm hidden behind them.

Whoosh~! A burst of crossbows and crossbows shot at the opposing battle formation. At such a close distance, the lethality of a bow and crossbow is comparable to that of a longbow. Huohai fell down in the screams of the battle array, and after shooting, Zhou Wushun hung the bow and crossbow on his waist and killed him with a war spear.

Duan Lang and the others didn't have to continue to hide, a Bo dragon horse quickly rushed out, Duan Lang held a war halberd, and rushed into the enemy battle formation side by side with Zhou Wu. Gu Fan Xiangtian and the others quickly followed.

Huo Hai had just run back halfway, when he suddenly heard a scream behind him, Huo Hai was shocked, and immediately grabbed the war horse. When he turned around to look, the vanguard was already in chaos, and the soldiers wearing the armor of the Hundred Thousand Elephant City were rushing towards him. Although Huo Hai hadn't seen clearly that the person in front of him was Duan Lang, the halberd in Duan Lang's hand flew up and down, which was a fake fight, and it was simply slaughtering his generals.

"Damn, they turned against the water, and the order, the army in the middle lane immediately killed the soldiers and horses of Yixiang City. Rear team, block the attacking enemy soldiers. Huo Hai shouted, shook the war gun in his hand, and ran back again.

Huo Hai's military orders were inconsistent, and the middle lane team had just turned around and opened the formation, and had to turn over again to prepare for the battle. Zhou Wu's army of 20,000 frantically harvested the lives of the enemy. Duan Lang held the halberd in his hand and greeted Huo Hai.

Huo Hai's eyes couldn't collapse with hatred, and in just a short period of time, the other party shot and killed, and thousands of troops were swept under the horse. Although Huo Hai didn't recognize Duan Lang who was wearing the armor of his own soldiers, the long knife of the eighteen personal guards behind Duan Lang made Huo Hai suddenly startled.

"No, they are not Fan Jiachang's department. Be careful, everyone, give me a stand! ”

As soon as Huo Hai finished shouting, Duan Lang rushed over with a loud shout, "Huo Hai, this is the place where you bury your bones, and I Duan Lang will give you a ride." ”

"Ah~you~ Why are you here?"

Huo Hai looked at Duan Lang who rushed towards him in shock, and said in his heart, shouldn't this guy be in the main battlefield, how could he run to the camp of Yixiang City. But no one explained these things to him, and Duan Lang's halberd stabbed him head-on.

Huo Hai gritted his teeth, and now he knows that he was fooled. But Huo Haixin said that it doesn't matter if you are fooled, Lao Tzu will kill you Duan Lang first. Last time, Duan Lang attacked the Xiyue camp, because he wanted to protect Lu Mu's evacuation, so Huo Hai did not face to face with Duan Lang. Now that Lu Mu is not in the battle array, he can just let go of his hands and feet to fight with Duan Lang.

Huohai's war spear suddenly flicked and swept away Duan Lang's halberd. Huo Hai originally wanted to stab Duan Lang with a shot after opening it, but Duan Lang's war halberd was very heavy, Huo Hai swung the war halberd, and the war gun in his hand was also bounced away. The two horses on both sides kicked by mistake, and Duan Lang swept it with the handle of the halberd, wanting to sweep Huo Hai under the horse. Huo Hai is worthy of being a veteran of the West Vietnamese, and his body is pressed on the horse's back, avoiding Duan Lang's combo.

Huo Hai gasped in surprise, and as soon as he sat down, Gu Fan's long knife to the sky was slashed down. Huo Hai's heart was shocked. With a loud roar, he raised his arms and raised his spear to block it.

Listening to a click, the war spear was broken into three sections, and Gu Fan's two swords to the sky slashed at the armor on Huo Hai's shoulders, and a string of sparks appeared.

Duan Lang saw that Gu Fan Xiangtian and the others were facing Huo Hai, and he no longer fought his horse and turned back, and directly went forward to kill him. Duan Lang knew that the eighteen guards were good at team battles, as long as they were entangled, let alone Huo Hai, even the old ghost Huai had to be busy running for his life. In the past few years, Gu Fan Xiangtian and the others have cooperated more tacitly, and Duan Lang believes that Huo Hai will not be able to escape their killing.

At the tail of the army, Zhou Hu also led his soldiers and horses to rush over. Huohai's army was attacked from both sides in a hurry, especially on Duan Lang's side, and the casualties were very heavy. The soldiers and horses under Zhou Wu are comparable to the combat effectiveness of Zhou Long's 8,000 dead soldiers. The long-accumulated secret training allowed the guards' abilities to burst out like a torrent.

Xue Bingtian and the others saw that the blood in their hearts was hot, and without waiting for Duan Lang to order, Xue Bingtian couldn't help but shout.

"Brothers, the time has come for revenge by burning down my homeland and killing my compatriots. Kill! ”

Xue Bingtian led more than 10,000 soldiers and horses, howling and rushing over. Don't look at their combat effectiveness, but they were stimulated by the blood in their hearts by Zhou Wu's soldiers and horses, and some of these young people who had not even been in the battle formation seemed to have forgotten their fears.

In less than twenty breaths, Huo Hai was beheaded by Gu Fan Xiangtian and others. The entire West Vietnamese army was in disarray, and many people began to flee in all directions.

At the same time, on the main battlefield, the two sides also launched a fierce battle. Zhang Qifeng met Hu Tianzhuang, and Chen Zhanxuan blocked the Manchu War Department. Wang Fuzhong led the infantry soldiers and horses and began to press forward, and the rows of special chariots covered with grass curtains behind him were also moving forward.

In the battle formation, Mokun once again rushed out of a standard of people. Yutai Mingyue frowned slightly, and immediately ordered Lu Zhengshan to lead the heavy armor to step forward to meet the battle. Although it is said that several parties are fighting at the same time, after all, the capital city does not have an advantage in numbers, and the two sides are inseparable. Especially Zhang Qifeng's department, in the face of Nanping's elite division, it was already a little reluctant.

The veteran Yan Facheng looked at Tantai Mingyue, "Military advisor, give the order, if I don't break the siege, I'm afraid Zhang Qifeng's department won't be able to hold on." ”

Standing on top of the handsome car, watching the entire battle situation, seeing that Duan Lang and the others had not yet arrived, Tangtai Mingyue was also a little anxious in her heart. If this continues, their losses will be extremely serious. And in the midst of the melee, her ballistas won't be used.

"General Yan, wait a minute, as soon as you go to battle, the other party will inevitably send troops and horses to intercept it. Wait a little longer, I hope Zhang Qifeng can hold on. ”

Tangtai Mingyue decided to keep it for the time being, after all, Yan Facheng's cavalry was already the last cavalry force in her hands. If they are all dispatched, in the next battle, they can only give way to the soldiers and the firearms battalion to press.

In the battle array opposite, Mo Kun saw that the situation was very favorable to them, and immediately ordered, "Fang Sicheng listened to the order and dispatched 10,000 war cavalry to support Hu Tianzhuang, and be sure to take down the opponent's vanguard soldiers and horses." As long as a gap is opened, the old man will let Duan Lang understand what it means to be defeated. ”

"The last will be ordered!"

Fang Sicheng agreed, ordered 10,000 cavalry, and quickly rushed out of the big array.

When Yutai Mingyue saw it, she immediately ordered, "General Yan, it's time for you to get out." ”

"The last will be ordered!" Yan Facheng also saw that the other party's additional dispatch of this army and horses was tantamount to adding insult to injury for Zhang Qifeng's department. Even if his team was the last cavalry force in the battle array, he had to be sent as a last resort.

Behind the battle formation, Zhou Long stomped his feet anxiously. But without a military order, he could only watch. Tangtai Mingyue's face was cold, and Yan Facheng's addition temporarily stabilized the melee on Zhang Qifeng's side, but she knew that it would definitely not work like this. After all, in the Mokun camp, there are still a small number of cavalry to be called, and by the side of Lantai Mingyue, only foot soldiers and horses remain.

"Huang Zhi listens to orders!"

Yutai Mingyue knew that he couldn't wait any longer, and he had to change the initiative of the battle. Otherwise, even if Duan Lang arrived, their losses would be very serious.

"The last general will obey the order!" Huang Zhi said with his fists clenched.

"This army commander ordered you to take the chariot straight into front of the opponent's big array. Remember, be sure to disrupt the Mokun main formation for me. Tantai Mingyue said coldly.

"The last will be ordered!"

Huang Zhi couldn't wait any longer, and when he received the order, he immediately rushed out of the battle formation with three hundred modified ballistas. Huang Zhi understood his importance, the current battle situation, only by disrupting the opponent's main formation could several warbands be affected. Otherwise, if this continues, they can only form a situation of attrition. But in terms of troops, the Lidu side really can't afford to spend it.

Mo Kun saw the opponent's chariot battalion dispatched, and immediately ordered Wang Fujian to lead the firearms battalion to prepare. At the same time, Mo Kun even ordered Sun Laicheng to bring spare soldiers and horses to the Manchurian War Station to support. Mo Kun knew that the other party had even sent out a chariot, but he wanted to see what Sun Laicheng was going to do.

Seeing that the other party had sent a spare cavalry, Tantai Mingyue had a solemn face, she really had no soldiers to send in her hands, and she couldn't press all the infantry soldiers and horses. Now the only hope for Mingyue is that Huang Zhi can make a successful surprise attack and disrupt the entire battle. Otherwise, they were afraid that they would not be able to hold out until Duan Lang arrived, and they would have to order a retreat.
