As for the soldiers in the camp, Ling Yan has his own reasons and plans, but in this way, he himself has increased the stakes to the level of a "decisive battle": if he loses, there will be no chance - the remaining soldiers are not enough for self-protection.

Therefore, Ling Yan characterized the upcoming war as a "decisive battle" related to the success or failure of their army. In this way, Ling Yan became even more nervous, he couldn't do anything else now, he could only hope that Liu Shi and his son would succeed in their actions, so that they could have the certainty of a big victory.

When he saw Juye City from afar, Ling Yan's heart beat faster - he knew that if Colonel Zuo knew about his movements, ninety percent of them would set up ambushes nearby, or when Ling Yan and the others attacked the city, those ambushes would be killed in a few ways; Either that or before they reached the city, they ambushed and went out.

In these two situations, Ling Yan naturally thought of it a long time ago, if Colonel Zuo's Yellow Turban soldiers were poisoned, then which of these two situations would occur, Ling Yan was not worried, but was a little happy, because this was Colonel Zuo's plan for him; But if those Yellow Turban soldiers were not poisoned, then no matter when the ambush soldiers were killed, it would be a heavy blow to Ling Yan.

The soldiers and horses continued to walk forward with great fanfare, Ling Yan's mind was confused, but he did not delay the march.

"General Yan, will the last general go to the front to investigate first, and then the general will go over?" Lu Gong was still careful, and came to Ling Yan to offer advice.

Ling Yan shook his head and smiled: "Don't." Let's go together, and even if we are ambushed, we will deal with it together. ”

Lu Gong nodded heavily, his eyes showing admiration.

"You go and talk to the soldiers, and be ready to fight at any time." Ling Yan still commanded Lu Gong.

Lu Gong agreed, and conveyed Ling Yan's instructions backwards.

Until he came to the open space in front of Juye City, there were no ambushes along the way, this situation, in Ling Yan's opinion, he was also happy and puzzled, and even, he hoped that the ambush soldiers would be killed quickly, so as to prove that his judgment was not accurate. But at the same time, he was worried that Colonel Zuo would not set up an ambush, and if that was the case, the whole plan would be ruined.

Under the scorching sun, the banner was unfurled, the yellow flag of the Yellow Turban Army, but there were no defenders in sight - the city was empty.

Wen Ping came to Ling Yan's side and whispered, "General Yan, it seems that the thief general has been prepared. ”

"Well, okay-" Ling Yan remained silent, his eyes fixed on the city, "Order, everyone is ready to fight." ”

Wen Ping gave an order, and Ling Yanjun immediately put out a combat formation.

Seeing that there was no movement in the city, Ling Yan didn't care about anything else, and when the army formation was set up and waited solemnly, he took two steps forward, drew out the moon slashing knife, and shouted towards the city: "Colonel Zuo!" Here I go again! Come and fight me again! ”

After Ling Yan finished speaking, there was still no sound in the city, and it seemed quiet everywhere - this made Ling Yan very uncomfortable, obviously there were many people in his army, and the enemy army must have hidden nearby, but there was no sound at all, which made him feel a kind of suffocation.

Ling Yan remembered that in the previous few sieges, the Zuo Colonel's army had been silent for a while before they suddenly appeared. So, Ling Yan shouted again: "Colonel Zuo!" Come out and fight! Are you afraid of me? I really didn't know you were so timid! ”

In modern society, as a scolding war before a fight, it must make people laugh. But in ancient times, this was very useful, and Ling Yan also learned this trick.

Sure enough, not long after Ling Yan finished saying this, he heard a burst of laughter suddenly appear from the city, and then, a few words with an arrogant tone: "Haha! General Yan, don't come unharmed! ”

This is really "before you see the person, hear the voice first", but even if the person who spoke did not show up, Ling Yan could immediately hear that this was what Colonel Zuo said.

"Humph! It's only been a few days, and 'don't come to harm'? Ling Yan sneered, "General Zuo is really polite!" ”

Another burst of laughter came from the city, and then, the figure of Colonel Zuo appeared on the city, and at the same time, beside him, a row of yellow turban soldiers in silver-white armor appeared, more than twenty people.

Ling Yan's heart tightened, he knew that these Yellow Turban soldiers were all people who could emit internal qi waves, and he also wanted to find out whether these soldiers could still emit internal qi waves.

"Humph! Left school! Last time, you were lucky enough to hold the city, but this time, I'm going to break through the city anyway! Ling Yan said loudly.

"Haha!" Colonel Zuo seemed to have heard some big joke, "General Yan, you can't joke!" It should be that you escaped alive from my hands a few times, but you are not ashamed? The general of the defeated army, but he still dares to come? ”

Ling Yan also smiled: "Aren't I here again?" Hehe...... The real shame is not that I lost a few times, but that the 'winning general' was captured by me in the final battle! ”

"Haha......" Colonel Zuo couldn't stop laughing, and laughed for a while before he continued, "I don't know General Yan, why did he get so confident?" ”

Ling Yan sneered twice: "It's the confidence I generated when I killed all the soldiers in your village and the yellow turban thieves in armor under you." ”

Colonel Zuo's laughter stopped abruptly, and his face suddenly changed from extreme ridicule to Tie Qing, staring at Ling Yan coldly, and after a while, he seemed to squeeze out a sentence from between his teeth: "General Yan, you killed fifty-five of my Yellow Turban soldiers that time, I will naturally not forget it...... Today, I will have your whole army buried with my soldiers! ”

Ling Yan saw Colonel Zuo gritting his teeth, and he was a little surprised in his heart: he didn't expect Colonel Zuo to remember it so clearly, could it be that after returning to the city, he had counted it himself?

Ling Yan only regarded Colonel Zuo as no one's life, so after he said what he said just now, he thought that Colonel Zuo would not care, at least on the surface, and said something like "those are rubbish" to pay tribute to him, but what he didn't expect was that instead of saying that kind of thing, Colonel Zuo mentioned the number of dead soldiers down to a specific number, and even hated all the soldiers of Ling Yan's army to bury them for the sake of those fifty-five soldiers! You must know that Ling Yan had killed so many ordinary Yellow Turban soldiers and Yellow Turban soldiers pretended to be Colonel Zuo before, but Colonel Zuo didn't feel the slightest distress!

Ling Yan suddenly realized that Colonel Zuo's view of the "descendants of soldiers" under him was indeed completely different from that of others - Colonel Zuo's ability to remember the number of deaths of his soldiers proved that those soldiers had a status in Colonel Zuo's heart.

At the same time, Ling Yan also secretly felt a burst of happiness: since Colonel Zuo cared so much about his "descendant soldiers", then the last time he saw Ling Yan and the others kill more than fifty of him in one go, his mood at that time could be imagined!

Thinking of this, Ling Yan felt a burst of lightness, and was happy for a while, so he continued to stimulate Zuo Xiao and said, "Zuo Xiao, I advise you to surrender!" I admit that you are very scheming and very strong in martial arts, but I have already seen through your tricks, and I can see that you have nothing else that you can handle...... Hehe, speaking of the last time you drove the people out of your city, it can be seen that your cunning has been exhausted! ”

Ling Yan said as he observed the change in Colonel Zuo's face.

Colonel Zuo's face became more and more gloomy with Ling Yan's words—it was probably because Ling Yan's last sentence really poked Colonel Zuo's sore spot again.

When Ling Yan finished speaking, Colonel Zuo's face was already quite ugly. He looked at Ling Yan coldly for a while before he said in a calm voice, "Okay, I really don't have a strategy to defend the city." Then it will be up to you how to storm the city. ”

Ling Yan smiled: "Colonel Zuo, do you still want to drive the people out?" ”

"Hmph," Colonel Zuo smiled sinisterly, "those useless people, what is the pity of life and death? General Yan, if you can't bear to kill them, it will be your greatest failure! ”

As soon as he mentioned this, Ling Yan was also annoyed: "Hmph! You're really making me look down on you! Exploiting innocent people and sending them into battle is a despicable act! Why don't you come and fight me yourself! ”

Colonel Zuo sneered again: "Okay! Good! General Yan really has courage! If you can storm the city today, I will fight you again, and this time, I promise that you will never return! However, it is also glorious to die under the knife of my 'Western God General'! ”

When Colonel Zuo said this, Ling Yan suddenly became suspicious: when he came to attack the city last night, Colonel Zuo didn't even dare to show his face, at that time he thought that Zuo School's qi had not recovered and he was afraid of his pistol. But...... This time, how dare Colonel Zuo face him directly during the day? Don't......

It just so happened that Colonel Zuo's next words just answered Ling Yan's question.

After Colonel Zuo laughed a few times, he said proudly: "General Yan, I also have to admire your martial arts cultivation, after the last battle with you, I was actually slightly injured, but that slight injury had no effect on me at all, even if I was injured, I could also kill you." What's more, I'm fully recovered now! Haha...... "Looking at his high-spirited appearance, it seems that he has completely feared Ling Yan.

Lu Gong took a step forward, pointed at Colonel Zuo and scolded: "Phew! Brave people! Dare to speak falsely in the city! If it's really powerful, come down and fight me! I'm afraid you won't dare! ”

Colonel Zuo glanced at Lu Gong contemptuously: "You nameless junior, I can kill you with a single move, but I don't know whether you are alive or dead." ”

Ling Yan didn't hear much about this conversation between Lu Gong and Colonel Zuo, because as soon as Colonel Zuo said "his body has recovered" just now, Ling Yan was shocked in his heart, his guess was indeed right, Colonel Zuo was really cured. However, he felt very funny about Colonel Zuo's bragging—if Colonel Zuo really could kill him if he was wounded, as he himself said, then how could this hatred be eliminated when Colonel Zuo witnessed his most beloved soldiers die at his hands one after another? How could they not take revenge, but take the opportunity to escape?

However, Ling Yan didn't say anything about this "history", after all, it was not a glorious thing for him to be picked off the horse by Colonel Zuo at that time, so after Colonel Zuo scolded Gong Lu back, he gave another example and said: "Colonel Zuo, you are injured, what's the big deal?" Zhang Mancheng also boasted that no one would let him be injured, wasn't he killed by me? ”

Colonel Zuo snorted coldly: "Who is Zhang Mancheng!" That kind of waste, how dare you boast like this? Hum! What a shame on our Yellow Turban Army! ”

Ling Yan said coldly: "Colonel Zuo, you are embarrassed enough. ”

Colonel Zuo looked at Ling Yan with a cold face for a few seconds, and then sneered: "What do you say, General Yan, if you have the ability, you will break through the city!" ”

Ling Yan sneered: "Okay! After speaking, he waved his knife backwards, "Brothers, give me a siege!" ”

Almost at the same time as Ling Yan finished speaking, Colonel Zuo also shouted at the head of the city: "Ambush the soldiers!" At the same time, the two Yellow Turban soldiers standing at the very edge of the city each picked up a small yellow flag and waved it back and forth vigorously in their hands.

Ling Yan had already expected this situation, so he was not surprised, but the tension in his heart had risen to the extreme—he would soon be able to know the true strength of those Yellow Turban soldiers.

Before Ling Yan's soldiers could attack the city, they saw that before Colonel Zuo's words fell, the gate of Juye City slowly opened. As the gates opened, a cacophony of cries and shouts came from inside the gates, and the sound sounded extremely panicked and frightened.

This time, Ling Yan was standing in front of the city gate, so as soon as he opened a crack, he saw several panicked people, desperately trying to squeeze out of the door, shouting as they squeezed, and their voices were full of crying. And behind the people, Ling Yan heard a few more terrible screams, which sounded like wails before death.

Ling Yan's fire "rubbed" out, what he couldn't tolerate the most was the people who killed civilians, and from the situation in front of him, it was clear that the soldiers of Colonel Zuo were driving the innocent people behind the city gate, and the people who fell last must have been killed by the Yellow Turban soldiers, and the screams he heard just now should have been made by the unfortunate person.

Ling Yan was about to give the order to kill him, but Lu Gong hurriedly said beside him: "General Yan, the ambush soldiers have come out from behind!" ”

Ling Yan was startled, turned his head and looked back, only to see a group of Yellow Turban soldiers running out of the dense forest not far away, and after those Yellow Turban soldiers came out, they did not shout loudly, but stood in a row, facing Ling Yan's rear army.

"Haha!" Colonel Zuo looked at Ling Yan from the top of the city and laughed, "You traitors, I want to see how you can escape with your life this time!" After speaking, his voice became extremely poignant again, "Hmph! I'm going to kill you all today!" Annihilation of you all! Come and pay tribute to the souls of the deceased! ”

When Colonel Zuo shouted loudly, Ling Yan still didn't turn his head, still looking at the Yellow Turban soldiers behind him, but his ears also heard Colonel Zuo's words. Hearing those words, and seeing those Yellow Turban soldiers again, Ling Yan's first reaction was: Colonel Zuo really wanted him to annihilate his entire army - the soldiers who were ambushed and killed in the dense forest, he probably counted them, and there were nearly a hundred! The hundred or so Yellow Turban soldiers stood in two rows, crossed in pairs, and looked at Ling Yan's army coldly.

The more than 100 yellow turban soldiers with silver and white armor, under the scorching sun, the armor on their bodies emitted strange colors, reflecting each other, coupled with the cold faces of those soldiers, people couldn't help but feel a chill in their hearts when they saw it.

According to Ling Yan's estimate, all the Yellow Turban soldiers under Colonel Zuo's command now are only more than 100 people, except for the one or twenty people at the head of the city, and the soldiers who are driving the people, it is estimated that all the remaining Yellow Turban soldiers have been sent by Colonel Zuo to ambush, making it clear that he is determined to cut off Ling Yan's back road and let Ling Yan have no return.

However, this was exactly what Ling Yan wanted, he was secretly glad that Colonel Zuo had set up an ambush for nearly ninety percent of the guards, and on the other hand, he secretly prayed that those soldiers would not be able to make internal air waves.

But now it was an emergency moment, Ling Yan didn't allow much thought, so he turned to Wen Ping and You Heng beside him, and hurriedly said, "General Wen! You, General! Lead the army back to kill the ambush! Remember! Try to catch them alive! ”

"Yes!" "Yes!" The two of them replied loudly, turned around and led the army to kill the ambush soldiers.

Ling Yan turned around, the city gate was already half open, and some people had already poured out, all running towards Ling Yan and the others, looking panicked.

Ling Yan hurriedly said to Lu Gong: "General Lu! Rush over with your troops! Don't hurt the people! ”

"Yes!" Lu Gong replied loudly with a sharp voice, waved his gun, and led the troops to kill at the city gate.

Ling Yan raised his head, pointed the Moon Slashing Knife at Colonel Zuo, and said loudly, "Colonel Zuo!" If you have any other ability, use it quickly! ”

Colonel Zuo sneered, looking calm, and then he waved his hand in the void, only to see those Yellow Turban soldiers on the head of the city raising their arms almost at the same time, palms towards Ling Yan and the others under the city.

Almost at the same time, there was a sigh behind Ling Yan, accompanied by some shouts.
