Dai Liang thought about it for a while, and immediately gathered two thousand light cavalry in his department, one of them reported the direction of King Yan, and attacked Zhang Qi's group of soldiers on his own.

In the early hours of the morning, at the end of the morning, Chaoxian was silent, except for the Lingqi who was on duty at night, it can be said that within a radius of several miles, there were almost no living creatures screaming, so you can imagine how much harm the flood brought to the Jianghuai territory.

In the county middle school field, Zhang Qi was resting, and suddenly there was a loud horn outside, and Zhang Qi stood up in shock: "What happened outside?" ”

"Little grandfather, the Yan army is attacking at night, the Yan army is attacking at night!"

Jiang Ji hurriedly came, Zhang Qi heard it, and said angrily: "What are you panicking, the weak soldiers of the Yan army, but the dry grass and dogs, you and others will order the schools to follow the generals to resist the enemy!" ”

That being said, Dai Liang came suddenly, coupled with Zhang Qi's previous successive victories, the soldiers had already given birth to arrogant and careless emotions, at this time in the face of the surprise attack, it was really a little too late, in addition, Dai Liang's soldiers were divided into two directions, attacking at the same time from the east and north of Chao County, in the case of torches shouting and arrows raining down, Zhang Qi even though there were many soldiers, but he could not withstand the impact of chaos, and it was a moment of effort, Zhang Qi's counterattack was defeated by Dai Liang, seeing that the general situation was not good, Jiang Ji shouted and persuaded Zhang Qi, Zhang Qi ran out of a way in the chaos and retreated westward.

"Lord Dianjun, some of the soldiers in the capital have escaped, and their subordinates have led their troops to pursue?"

The captain came to ask for his life, but Dai Liang said: "Poor Kou Mo chase, if he is dragged and bitten by the Zhongdu soldiers, it will be disadvantageous to himself!" ”

This Dai Liang didn't know the distance between Zhang Qi's department and the army, otherwise he would definitely chase after him strongly, Zhang Qi won or lost at that time, it was really hard to say, but Dai Liang didn't chase it, he didn't want to send the people who remained in this county to Jianye, some people didn't want to go, Dai Liang didn't say anything, just separated it, was willing to go, and set off immediately.

In the end, Dai Liang's subordinates gathered the people who were unwilling to leave in the county south of the school valley, looking at the one hundred and ten emaciated and pitiful faces, Dai Liang said: "You really don't want to go? If the soldiers of Zhongdu come again, you will definitely die! ”

"My lord, we were born here, and now half of our feet are buried in the loess, it doesn't matter if we starve to death or be killed!"

The dirty sixty-year-old woman responded in a low voice, for these words, Dai Liang was also very uncomfortable, but the general trend, he was also powerless, and finally Dai Liang left half of the grain and grass of the light cavalry to these people, and led the troops to leave. When Dai Liang left Chao County at night, Zhang Qi had already stabilized his position from the defeat.

After the number of captains of each school was counted, there were only more than 3,000 of the 5,000 men left, and the other 2,000 soldiers did not know where they died, which made Zhang Qi furious.

"Damn Yan Jun... I'm so angry, I'm going to kill them all! ”

"Zhang Xianxian, just after the first battle, our army was only affected by the chaos of the Yan army, so it was defeated, now think about it, the total array of the Yan army is sparse, and there are not many people at all!"

As soon as the lieutenant said this, Zhang Qi also felt that at least when he led a hundred horsemen to rush out of the Xixian Gate, he almost didn't encounter any obstacles.

"Mother's Yan Jun!" Zhang Qi gritted his teeth: "In addition to those Yan soldiers, there are also the people of Chao County, they must have known that the Yan soldiers were coming, but they kept their mouths shut, passed on my order, and immediately prepared to kill, but no living creatures were left!" ”

Nearly a moment, Zhang Qi led the soldiers of the headquarters to return to the horse to kill, and the people of Chao County who did not want to withdraw from the land did not expect the Zhongdu soldiers to be so fast, the two sides just met each other, Zhang Qi's Bing General did not say a word, rushed up with a gun and a knife, followed by a scream, and then Zhang Qi was full of anger and burned Chao County.

At dawn, as far as the eye can see, the already dilapidated Chaoxian County has completely turned into a ruin, and in front of the village entrance, the black pile of firewood and grass like a hill is full of white bones, which is simply miserable, making people unable to look at it directly.

"Give the order to the army, we have arrived at the border where the Yan army is stationed, we must let them march quickly and rush to the aid of the right vanguard!"

Zhang Qi also knew how ruthless he was, and when he sobered up, he immediately flew to give orders, and he scattered the scouts and a radius of ten miles, always alert to the appearance of the Yan army.

After Dai Liang made a surprise attack in the first battle and brought back some of the people of Chao County, he had not yet returned to Juchao Town, which was temporarily garrisoned, and the bad news of Chao County came.

"Lord Dianjun, there is fire news from the direction of Chao County, and the situation is unknown!"

"Fire?"

At first glance, Dai Liang didn't know, but after thinking about it, he said in a cold sweat: "It's not good, it must be the damn Zhongdu soldiers who are coming back to kill!" ”

Immediately, Dai Liang prepared the light cavalry that had worked all night, and sent another person to Liyang City, asking General He Qi to send troops to help. At the same time, Dai Liang also sent scouts in the direction of Chaoxian County to detect the situation, but for an hour, Dai Liang and Zhang Qi's scouts met each other, and a brief rush directly occurred, and Dai Liang couldn't sit still.

"Evacuate all the people in Juchao Town immediately, but the young and strong must stay behind and assist our troops in resisting the Zhongdu soldiers!"

An order was issued, Dai Liang gathered two thousand young people, and the colonel came to restore his life, Dai Liang said: "Wait for the order to go down, fight to the death, do not surrender, and those who dare to escape and surrender without permission will be killed!" ”

At noon, Zhang Qi led his troops to rush to the bottom of Juchao Town, looking at the low wall of the town gate, Zhang Qi laughed loudly: "Jiang Ji, can this be called a city?" It's just a small military fort, do you dare to make a bet with someone! ”

Jiang Ji responded: "What does the little grandfather want to gamble on?" ”

"In an hour, I'll take this town!"

"Hahaha!" Jiang Ji said with a smile: "Little grandfather, if your subordinates offer one or two, don't say an hour, you can win it in half an hour!" ”

When Zhang Qi heard this, he kept repeatedly: "Then don't talk about it quickly!" ”

Jiang Ji obeyed the order, said a few words, Zhang Qi immediately ordered to attack, even though Dai Liang's soldiers were brave more than 4,000, but the light cavalry was trapped and defended, it was a disadvantage, only out of the town field battle, but only relying on the young and brave men to guard, Dai Liang was not at ease, but Zhang Qi's troops were rapid, after a little thought, Dai Liang led his troops out of the town to fight, but Dai Liang did not expect that his light cavalry had just left the town, and was entangled by Zhang Qi's strong impact, and he couldn't get out of his body for a while, as for Jiang Ji, he personally led a school soldier armor around the east gate to make a strong attack, The lieutenant colonel of Nacheng thought that the Zhongdu soldiers had changed the direction of the attack and immediately switched defense, but they walked on the front foot, and the west gate on the back foot was broken by the five hundred armor soldiers left by Jiang Ji, so Juchao Town took it, and this just took half an hour as Jiang Ji said.

That Dai Liang and Zhang Qi fought hard, and they rushed down to kill each other, and they didn't take advantage of it at all, which made Dai Liang feel palpitations, but Dai Liang should also understand that the northerners are fierce and hardworking, and it is best to fight in the field, Zhang Qi is also the master of the fierce generals, and Dai Liang is naturally not an opponent when he fights with him.

When Dai Liang rushed to kill Zhang Qi, Juchao Town was lost again, but Dai Liang fought to the death and did not retreat, and finally all the 2,000 soldiers of the department were killed, leaving only more than ten alive, but Zhang Qi is not a good master, for these defeated soldiers, Zhang Qi generously sent them to see the king of Hades, leaving only one Yan soldier, Ming Qi rushed back to Liyang City, and demonstrated to the generals of the Yan army.
