Fang La rode a silver-maned white horse, went out to the front of the battle, personally supervised the battle, and saw Zhao Gou coming in person from a distance, so he stepped forward. At this point, he knew he could never back down. Leaving the crown prince Fang Tianding in Hangzhou City before, so that he died on the battlefield, this time he must not retreat.

If he, as the emperor, is timid in front of everyone, how should he let the generals charge into battle, and how to face his subjects. Since he decided to go on a personal expedition this time, Fang La is ready to fight to the death, it's a big deal that the fish dies and the net is broken, even if he dies in battle, what does it matter.

Fang La slowly stepped forward and shouted, "Marshal Zhao, I don't know if you dare to meet me?" ”

"The Holy Father invited, how could Ben Shuai not obey!" Zhao Gou said with a dry smile, and also rode forward.

Fang La sighed: "I never thought I would see you again!" ”

Zhao Gou replied: "The things that the Holy Father never thought of were far more than this, and why I was able to break through the defense of the Southern Army and win victories one after another, forcing you to go out in person." If you can bravely face Ben Shuai from the beginning, maybe you really don't know who will win or lose in the battle between the two armies. ”

"It's come to this, and I have nothing to say!" Fang La looked at Zhao Gou unswervingly, and said, "This battle is our final decisive battle, if you win, it will be your death, and if you fail, it will be my death." This time, I will personally fight you to see what you are capable of. ”

Zhao Gou replied: "My ability Holy Father should have seen it a long time ago!" ”

Fang La suddenly recalled that in Hangzhou City, Zhao Gou broke into his house at night, and even dared to openly confront himself, and that time he knew that Zhao Gou's martial arts were even higher than his own. Then, the dozens of masters he sent out were all killed by Zhao Gou, and none of them survived, and he was afraid that he couldn't resist this skill.

"A year has passed since the Holy Decree set out, and time can no longer be delayed, and the next battle is a battle to the death. As for you trying to defeat me, I'm afraid it's not possible. Our army is strong and strong, and the generals under your command are capable of fighting well, but it is a pity that you don't have many generals in your hands, even if you have tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, they are not my opponents. ”

Zhao Gou said murderously: "If it is for their sake, it is better to obediently tie up and arrest them, otherwise there will be no forgiveness!" ”

Fang La said disdainfully: "I am the Son of Heaven, I am ordered by Heaven, and I personally supervise the battle, do you think that I will win?" If you want to win, it depends on whether I agree or not! ”

"In that case, then we will see you on the battlefield, and we will definitely convince you!" Zhao Gou smiled confidently, and then turned to leave.

After Zhao Gou turned around and left, Fang La also returned to the camp angrily, but at this moment, Du Wei, who was hiding in the camp, took advantage of his unpreparedness and took out the flying knife to kill Zhao Gou. Zhao Gou didn't even look at it, and left on his own, easily dodging and leaving calmly.

Du Wei was slightly stunned when he saw that Zhao Gou easily avoided his flying knife, if the frontal attack was avoided, it would be understandable, how could he not dodge it if he had been prepared. However, Zhao Gou turned around and left with his back to him, Du Wei sneaked up from the rear or was avoided by Zhao Gou, and couldn't help muttering: "Could it be that the commander of the Song Army has eyes behind him?" ”

When Fang La returned to the formation, he heard the spy Pegasus Yu report: "He Conglong, the teacher of the Imperial Forest Capital, the governor of the military horse, went to save Shezhou, and was captured alive by the Song soldier Lu Xianxian. The army and horses have dispersed, and the Song soldiers have been killed behind the mountain. ”

Hearing this news, Fang La couldn't help but panic. The combat effectiveness of the Song army is indeed far superior to its own, and it should not be broken through so quickly, even the generals sent out by themselves were killed by Lu Junyi, and all the soldiers and horses were scattered. In a hurry, Fang La had no choice but to withdraw his troops and protect Ouchi first.

Seeing Fang La's panicked appearance, Zhao Gou couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth, and smiled slightly, he knew what was going on, and he didn't order the pursuit, but let them withdraw.

However, Fang La was still worried that Zhao Gou would lead the army to pursue, so he ordered Fang Jie and commissioned Du Wei to hold the position, but when Fang La drove first, Fang Jie and Du Wei retreated. Fang La drove back to the border of Qingxi Prefecture, only to hear the big inner city, shouting in the sky, full of fire, soldiers and horses, but it was Li Jun, Ruan Xiaowu, Ruan Xiaoqi and others who set fire in Qingxi City.

When Fang La saw it, he immediately led the Imperial Forest Army and horses to save the city and entered the city to fight.

After Zhao Gou saw Fang La leave in a hurry, he calmly pursued and rushed to Qingxi, and when he saw the fire in the city, he knew that Li Jun and the others had already succeeded. Then, Zhao Gou ordered everyone to go into the city separately to help Li Jun and the others. At this time, Lu Junyi's army and horses also happened to cross the mountain range and went straight to Qingxi County, and the two armies echoed and killed the southern army and retreated.

Fang La saw that the two armies of the Song army gathered in one place, and entered the city again, knowing that Qingxi County had already fallen, even if he knew that he would be defeated, it was impossible to defeat so quickly, but in just a moment, so many things happened. In desperation, Fang La had no choice but to appoint Fang Jie to lead the army to protect him, and fled directly to Gangyuan Cave to hide.

Ruan Xiaoqi led the army into the deep palace of the inner garden and found a box, but it was Fang La's forged balance crown, dragon robe, jasper belt, white jade, and worry-free shoes. Ruan Xiaoqi saw that there were pearls and treasures on it, dragon and phoenix brocade, and thought to himself: "This is worn by Fang La, so I will wear it, and I don't care." ”

So, Ruan Xiaoqi put on the dragon robe, tied the jasper belt, put on worry-free shoes, put on the Pingtian crown, but put the white jade in his arms, jumped on the horse, held the whip, and ran out of the palace. The generals of the three armies, when they saw someone wearing a dragon robe, thought it was Fang La, and they all made a fuss, rushing to grab him and prepare to take him down, but they found that it was Ruan Xiaoqi, and everyone laughed.

Zhao Gou frowned, he knew that the dragon robe was worn by the emperor, even if Fang La was the emperor himself, he was indeed the emperor here, and he had this qualification. However, Ruan Xiaoqi put it on, but he was afraid that something would be inappropriate. Song Jiang, Lu Junyi, Wu Yong and others were also taken aback when they saw it, and immediately asked him to get off the horse and take off his clothes and change back into his own clothes, they all knew that this was a taboo, and if the current emperor knew about it, he was afraid that it would be a disaster.

The Song army brigade has entered Qingxi County, and everyone has entered the Fangla Palace, packed up the forbidden weapons, gold and silver treasures, searched the inner treasury, and set fire to the palace, burning all the palaces inside and outside Fangla, and the treasury money and grain were searched out. Song Jiang joined Lu Junyi's army and horses, stationed in Qingxi County, gathered all the generals, and all came to ask for merit and reward.

It's just that in the battle of Qingxi County, Ruan Xiaowu was killed by Prime Minister Lou, and all the civil and military ministers under Fang La's command were captured alive, a total of ninety-two people. Zhao Gou appeased the people and posted a list to track down Du Wei and Lou Chengxiang who escaped. It's just that Du Wei was very unlucky, he originally hid in the house of the prostitute Wang Jiaojiao, and wanted to escape, but he was told by the slave at home, and was finally killed by Zhao Gou.

"Marshal, why don't you continue the pursuit?" Lu Junyi asked suspiciously.

Zhao Gou replied: "It is indeed a gratifying thing for our army to break through Qingxi County, but the army is tired, and the soldiers are tired, especially the generals who accompany you, both physically and mentally. If you continue to pursue, I'm afraid you will have to fight again. If this is the case, our soldiers will have to add a few more people to accompany the burial. ”

"Now that our army has captured Qingxi County, Fang La's gang has nowhere to escape and has become a turtle in an urn. It's just that Fang La's martial arts are indeed not weak, if the brothers fight with him, I am afraid that there will be casualties. Since our expedition this time, our brothers have suffered heavy casualties and cannot take any more risks. ”

"Now, our army has won the victory, and the southern army has been defeated by our army, I am afraid that it is just a bird with a frightened bow. In this case, why not rest for a day, and send troops to pursue tomorrow, I think the southern army has no way to escape. Now, what we have to do is to really capture Fang La alive. ”

When Lu Junyi and the others heard this, they all nodded, and they also felt that there was some truth, so they all went down to rest.

The next day, Zhao Gou led the army directly to the entrance of Bangyuan Cave, and the army surrounded it. Fang Jie was the only one left among the generals under Fang La, and there were few soldiers left, so he didn't dare to go out to meet the enemy, so he had to hold on.

Song Jiang asked: "Marshal, Fang La, this thief can't hold out, and our army has no way in, what should I do?" ”

Zhao Gou said with a smile: "Song Xianxian, don't worry, I'm afraid that Fang La is more anxious than us." Although this cave is the place of his uprising, there is not enough food and rice left, and the army is insufficient, and it must be unbearable after a long time, but I am afraid that we will come out by ourselves when the time comes, and then we will come to capture it again, now we just need to wait for the rabbit, and there is no need to be anxious. ”
