Meng Haigong captured Shanqi City.

Shuai Rentai was dumbfounded, and his face was gloomy.

Xu Shiren reported Li Fengyun as soon as possible, and at the same time gave him bad news, the grudge between Meng Haigong and Shuai Rentai was getting bigger and bigger, which was very unfavorable to the next battle of the Right Route Army.

When Li Fengyun received this news, he was confronting Qin Qiong outside Shengcheng City.

There is only more than 20 miles between Shengcheng and Changqing City, Li Fengyun hit Shengcheng, Qin Qiong can't turn a blind eye, and the officials of Jibei County are watching from the side, and Luo Shixin under his command is even more eager to fight, regardless of the shame of the snow, so although Qin Qiong has received Zhang Xutuo's retreat order, he still commanded the army to slowly advance in the direction of Shengcheng under the pretext of covering the retreat of Jibei officials and people.

When Li Fengyun saw the official army coming, he immediately ordered to stop the siege of the city, set up a battle formation on the great plain outside the city, and made a posture of fighting to the death with the official army.

There are many righteous soldiers, 8 armies and 30,000 people are lined up, flags are fluttering, drums and trumpets are noisy, and the momentum is amazing, and there are only more than 3,000 officers and soldiers, even if they are lined up, their momentum cannot be compared with the righteous army, so when the two armies confronted each other, the morale of the officers and soldiers plummeted, not that they did not dare to fight, but after this fight, even if they won the battle? How many people will survive in the end? If there was a group of unclothed rabble with sticks on the opposite side, the three thousand officers and soldiers were full of confidence, and everyone was sure to cut off ten heads to receive the reward, but now on the opposite side was a group of mighty troops who looked more like the officers and soldiers than the officers and soldiers, and it was not at all the thief army that had just escaped from Mangdang Mountain to Mengshan that they encountered in Lu County a year ago.

In front of the two armies, Qin Qiong's expression was extremely solemn, although Luo Shixin had a heart of shame, but at this moment, in the face of an opponent who was more powerful than a year ago, reason quickly defeated the impulse, and no longer shouted to kill and kill, and Fan Hu was already at a loss, he didn't know the opponent anymore, is this still the Mengshan thief army a year ago? What secret did the White Thief use to make his army grow so far in just one year? No wonder Zhang Xutuo resolutely ordered a retreat at the beginning of the battle between the two sides, to hold on to help, to find fighters, at present it seems that this is indeed very wise, if it is hard, even if the victory is won, there is not much left of the official army, and Qi County will not be able to hold it.

"Withdraw, withdraw, withdraw" shouted the most fierce is Cheng Zhijie, Luo Shixin and Fan Hu didn't dare to shout in front of Qin Qiong, but Cheng Zhijie dared, after all, he was not Qin Qiong's direct subordinate, he was too restrained by Jibei, and he still had a certain degree of autonomy, if he turned around and ran away at this moment, Qin Qiong really couldn't do anything about him.

"There is no way to fight this battle, the white thief has laid down the horse army on its two wings, and in the middle is the hoplite armed with a Mo knife and a long lance, we can't break through in the middle, and the two wings can't attack, and if the other party attacks in three ways, we can't hold it at all, and we will inevitably be surrounded and annihilated by the white thief." Cheng Zhijie waved the horse lance in his hand, and kept pointing at the battle formation of the rebel army, his emotions were excited, his spit was splashing, and his voice was hoarse, "Brother, withdraw quickly, and when the white thief beats the drum to attack, we will not have time to retreat." ”

"Shut your mouth" Luo Shixin really couldn't stand it, his face was dark, his eyes were staring, murderous, and the horse lance in his hand pointed to Cheng Zhijie's throat, "If you say another word, I will kill you." ”

"Get out" Cheng Zhijie was furious, and he had to be halberded, "The shaft is hairless, dull and ignorant, you know a bird, brother, withdraw quickly, it's too late"

Luo Shixin was furious, raised his horse lance and smashed his head. Cheng Zhijie didn't bird him at all, his legs were clamped, and the war horse under his crotch rushed forward, easily avoiding it. Before Luo Shixin could make a move, Qin Qiong glared at him fiercely. Luo Shixin was secretly afraid, held back his anger, smashed a horse lance to the ground, and scolded at the top of his throat, "Cowardice in battle, no cowardice"

Cheng Zhijie was still shouting, Qin Qiong glared at him, and shouted, "Noise"

Cheng Zhijie shut up stupidly, turned his horse back, and at the same time made a gesture to several of his subordinates, signaling them to return to their own positions and prepare to retreat. He won't fight this battle, and he won't accompany an ignorant junior like Luo Shixin who is savage and impulsive to die.

Seeing that Qin Qiong was still hesitating, Fan Hu urged the horse to step forward and advised in a low voice, "Bingsi, the Duke of Ming has issued an order to retreat, it is estimated that Tang Wanren on the other side of the mountain has abandoned the city and left, and the army of the white thieves will follow up urgently. ”

Qin Qiong bowed slightly, and gave the order to slowly retreat.

The confrontation between the two armies is on the line, and the retreat of either side at this time may lead to a fatal disaster, so retreat is helpless, but how to retreat and how to retreat to ensure safety is the wisdom of the general.

Li Fengyun didn't want to miss the opportunity to encircle and annihilate the official army in front of him. He didn't know how the battle situation would unfold later, but one thing was certain, as long as the King of Qi entered Lu County and threatened Qi County, then the Donglai Water Division would definitely make some moves, and Zhang Xutuo would definitely hold on to the city and wait for reinforcements to preserve his strength before the Donglai Water Division entered the Qi County battlefield. Li Fengyun has no intention of fighting Licheng, Zhang Xutuo is heavily guarding Licheng, and the alliance is tantamount to self-harm, so this opportunity in front of him is too precious, if he can completely annihilate the officers and troops in front of him, he can not only hit Zhang Xutuo, but also hit the morale of the officers and soldiers.

"Ming Gong, the officers and troops are going to be withdrawn." Yuan An, who had been paying close attention to the battle formation of the official army, suddenly shouted, "The other party is decisive, and he will withdraw when he says so." ”

Li Fengyun frowned slightly, and turned his eyes to look at Xiao Yi, "Is there the latest news from Han Shuai and Shan Shuai?" ”

Xiao Yi shook his head, "Don't be anxious, Duke Ming, our order was issued early, Han Shuai and Shan Shuai have enough time to rush to Zhongchuan Water and surround the official army, the key is whether the official army is alert and whether they will break through the Zhongchuan Water defense line at any cost before they wake up." ”

A hint of gloom flashed in Li Fengyun's eyes, and the corners of his mouth showed a trace of disdain, and he asked quietly, "Are you worried that Han Shuai is timid and doesn't dare to confront the official army head-on?" ”

Xiao Yi glanced at Li Fengyun and asked with a pun, "Why isn't Ming Gong worried about Shan Shuai?" ”

"Why do you doubt your brother?"

Xiao Yi smiled and smiled very reservedly, "Ming Gong has always regarded the Wagang people as his brothers, but I don't know if the Wagang people are willing to charge for Ming Gong?" ”

Li Fengyun also smiled, "You may not understand, but you know it very well in your heart." ”

Xiao Yiwan smiled and stopped continuing the topic, "Ming Gong, do you want to beat the drum to attack?" ”

"Attack" Li Fengyun held a long knife in his hand and roared sharply, "Attack with both wings." Fengyunwei, after following so-and-so, kill"

The war horses neighed, the wind galloped out, and the two teams of Fengyun guards followed left and right, like a roaring arrow, in the thunderous roar, shooting straight at the enemy formation.

"Knock knock knock ......" The war drums beat, and the wind and clouds change color.

The rebels attacked, and the officers and soldiers immediately stopped retreating and formed a formation to defend themselves.

The arrows rained down, tearing through the sky and tearing through the cold wind, and shot head-on at the three enemy horsemen who swept like a hurricane.

"Woo woo woo ......" horn sounded, drifting in the field with the wind, revealing a cold and murderous atmosphere.

The three enemy cavalry suddenly changed formation, like fallen leaves in the autumn wind, and like dancing butterflies, fluttering and speeding on the open land, dodging pieces of black arrow clouds falling from the sky, like a ghost wandering in front of the roaring god of death, and a strong murderous intent emanated from the elegant figure.

Qin Qiong couldn't climb high and look far away, and he couldn't see the panorama of the battlefield, but he saw the anti-thieves' attempt to surround him from the stubborn and resolute advance of the enemy cavalry in front of him, and from the stride of the infantry battle formations behind the enemy cavalry. Underestimate the enemy, I didn't expect the strength of the white thief to grow so fast, and now in a head-to-head showdown, the disparity in strength is irreversible, and the other party can indeed surround and kill himself under the absolute advantage.

"If you let the enemy cavalry break through the battle formation, kill into the formation, break our formation, and destroy our formation, there is a danger that the whole army will be annihilated." Qin Qiong was not flustered, and calmly ordered, "Order, all regiments are closely connected, coordinate defense, and resolutely resist the round attack of the anti-thief." Tell the regiment leader Zuoshi again, thieves are rampant today, and only by fighting to the death can the whole division retreat. ”

Suddenly, all kinds of banners flew in the wind, drums and trumpets sounded in unison, and even heralds galloped between the battle formations, roaring one after another, while groups of Qi soldiers set off waves on the flat land, converging into strong waves.

The hundred horsemen approached the battle formation of the officers and soldiers at eighty paces. The sound of hooves was thunderous and deafening. Li Fengyun crouched on top of his war horse, his eyes like torches, staring closely at the enemy's battle formation, looking for the junction of the enemy formation.

Qin Qiong put down a plum blossom array that was both offensive and defensive, but the fatal thing was that this plum blossom array had just "moved", turning into a "dragon array" and retreating more than 300 steps to the rear, and when the rebels suddenly attacked and had to hastily change back into the plum blossom array, the battle array showed a flaw, and the distance between the "plum petals" was too large to close the breakthrough of the enemy horse.

Qin Qiong was trying to make up for his mistakes, and his subordinates were also doing their best to "repair" the flaws in the plum blossom array, but Li Fengyun came, his degree was too fast, even if the Fengyun cavalry was greatly reduced under the coverage of the official army's arrow array, but two legs could not run on four legs after all.

Li Fengyun straightened his body suddenly, the long knife in his right hand was raised high, pointing in the direction of the breakthrough, and at the same time, his left hand pulled down the facial protector, revealing only a pair of murderous eyes, and then his left arm was raised high, and the big hand wearing the leather protector made several gestures in the air one after another.

The horn soldier behind him understood and immediately blew the horn. The sound of the horn did not stop, the hundred horsemen and the wind and clouds immediately changed the formation, from the flying butterflies again turned into a fierce roaring arrow, the two sides of the arrow hand shield together, like a copper wall and iron wall, there is a bright and swaying horse lance in the iron wall, which is intimidating, and the middle of the arrow is full of crossbows, standby.

The war horses were flying, the earth was shooting everywhere, the hooves were like thunder, and the "sharp arrows" made a thrilling roar, approaching the enemy formation fifty paces in the blink of an eye.

"Fengyunwei, kill" Li Fengyun picked up his long knife and shouted wildly, "Kill in"

Qin Qiong's heart suddenly stopped, and he was suffocated by the violent momentum of the enemy horseman's galloping madness, and suddenly he spread his arms, used all his strength to raise the horse lance high, and roared wildly, "Crossbowman, volley salvo."

The "Sharp Arrow" has broken through the coverage of the strong crossbow, and the shooting angle of the horned bow is blocked by the knife and axe hand in front, and all that can be done at the moment is to shoot at the sky and hit the big luck.

The soldiers of the Qi army were running wildly, trying to plug the excessively large gap between the "plum petals" before the enemy cavalry broke through. Qin Qiong also flew in with sixteen personal guards, trying to block the enemy cavalry and buy precious time for his soldiers.

"Kill" Li Fengyun Pegasus arrived, the war horse rose in the air with four hooves in the neighing sound, the long knife made a piercing roar in the air, and then there was the dull sound of the sword and shield hitting each other, followed by the huge iron shield rising into the sky, and the soldiers holding the shield also flew up, and the screams echoed violently. The gunman standing behind the shield felt a roar in his ears, and then a dazzling light fell from the sky in front of him, and then half of his body flew upside down, and his long lance flew into the sky with a bloody stride, and he flew into the sky with a scream of belatedness.

The continuous impact of "boom, boom, boom ......" converged into an earth-shattering sound, destroying the battle formation, drowning the enemy soldiers, and also causing Qin Qiong, who was galloping, to be hit head-on.

Li Fengyun stepped on the corpses of the officers and soldiers and roared, and the tigers in the lower mountains, like dragons going out to sea, roared wildly, slashed down with a knife, and "killed"

The horse lance was picked horizontally, the knife and the lance struck each other, and there was a piercing sound of gold and iron, the knife and the lance were separated, the two horses were wrong, Li Fengyun roared again, and the long knife in his hand was unbelievably against the trend, and he slashed towards Qin Qiong behind him.

Qin Qiong saw Bai, Bai dancing scattered under his pocket, his eyes suddenly widened, his heartbeat suddenly went wild, his body suddenly twisted, and he actually used a return lance at this moment.

"When ......" struck again, sparks shot everywhere. Li Fengyun was unwilling, and in the roar, the long knife was cut down again, and between the lightning and flint, a knife slashed on the horse's buttocks, and blood burst out.

"White thief ......" Qin Qiong's anger was hot, at the moment when the war horse neighed out of control, at the moment when the war horse took off and flew into the air, the horse lance swept and beat a passing Fengyun horse into the horse, followed by Qin Qiong with the power of the horse lance rebound, jumped high, and broke away from the runaway war horse. A personal guard roared over, grabbed Qin Qiong's right leg in the air, and threw him into the battle array.

The "Boom Rumbling ......" Fengyun rode through the enemy formation and rushed into the enemy formation, and the "Sharp Arrow" became sharper and sharper, more and more bloody, destroying the withering and decaying general and killing the "Stamen".

However, the two wings of the attack of the Fengyun cavalry failed to break through the enemy formation, the left wing was desperately blocked by Luo Shixin and a group of guards, the right wing was blocked by Fan Hu, in the case of losing the two wings, Li Fengyun was unable to support alone, first encountered Cheng Zhijie's blockage in the center of the enemy formation, failed to destroy the official army, failed to achieve the purpose of severely damaging the morale of the enemy, and then Qin Qiong followed after the pursuit, Li Fengyun suffered from the enemy on his back, so he had to rush out of the gap between the other two "plum petals" with Fengyun Cavalry.

Almost at the same time, the five armies of the alliance surrounded and attacked the five "petals" of the official army's plum blossom array, but the raid on the enemy formation by the Fengyun cavalry had failed, and Qin Qiong had successfully gathered the plum blossom array and turned it into a rock-solid iron bucket array. Although the alliance is like a wolf and a tiger, it is helpless in the face of the "iron turtle" that has no way to speak.

At the moment of the stalemate between the two armies, Han Jinluo and Shan Xiongxin reported urgently that they had arrived at Zhongchuanshui, occupied Jichuan Jinkou, and cut off the road for the official army to retreat to Licheng.

Li Fengyun immediately ordered to stop the attack, retreat five miles, and let the officers and troops withdraw.

Qin Qiong withdrew to Changqing City, and now Jinkou is lost, and the retreat is desperate, so he can only hold on to the city.

At dusk, Li Fengyun led four armies to arrive and rendezvous with Han Jinluo and Shan Xiongxin, and the seven armies of the alliance surrounded Changqing City.

At the same time, Lü Xingxing commanded the first, third, fourth, and fifth armies of the alliance, united with Pei Changzi and Shizihe's Jibei Righteous Army, and surrounded Shengcheng, and Pei Changzi once again secretly contacted the "dark pile" deployed in the city, intending to take the city together.

That day and night, in the headquarters of the alliance, the lights were bright, and Li Fengyun and his subordinates and commanders urgently discussed the strategy of destroying the enemy.

Zhang Xutuo will not give up the army that is surrounded in Changqing City, he will definitely rescue, so the next focus is not to attack the city, but to block reinforcements.

"If you want to stop or delay Zhang Sutuo's rescue, you must capture Shagou City." Yuan An stood in front of the map and explained the current battle situation to everyone.

Shagou City is located between Licheng and Changqing City, sixty miles away from Changqing, and sixty miles away from Licheng, if Zhang Xutuo wants to rescue Qin Qiong, he must firmly control Shagou City, on the contrary, if Li Fengyun wants to block Zhang Xutuo's rescue, he must capture Shagou City to cut off the connection between Changqing and Licheng.

"So-and-so's decision is to besiege the city and send reinforcements." Li Fengyun was unusual, and did not discuss and deduce with everyone in detail, but made a final decision, which is beyond doubt.

"The purpose of this battle is very simple, that is, to use the officials and troops in Changqing City as bait, find ways to drag Zhang Xutuo out to fight, and do his best to consume his army." Li Fengyun explained, "You all know that if Zhang Xutuo shrinks his defense, holds on to the city, and waits for reinforcements, then it is us who are passive. When the king of Qi followed from Xuzhou and made a move to control Qilu, the Donglai Naval Division would definitely fully support Zhang Xutuo, and tens of thousands of officers and troops would enter the battlefield of Qi County, and there would be no way to fight this battle. ”

"What does Ming Gong mean is to inflict a heavy blow on Zhang Xutuo before the King of Qi enters Lu County, and before the Donglai Naval Division rescues Qi County?" Han Jinluo hesitated for a moment and asked.

Li Fengyun nodded solemnly, "That's what I think, but Zhang Xutuo may not fulfill a certain wish, so the reinforcements are not rushed up, but boiled frogs in warm water, take your time, and lure Zhang Xutuo's army in little by little, so that they are deeply trapped in it, and they can't stop, and finally they are defeated." ”

Han Jinluo, Shan Xiongxin, Zhen Baoche, Huo Xiaobao and others looked at each other and smiled, understanding.

"Soldier Guishen, come out immediately, fight it out of the enemy's surprise and attack the enemy unprepared." Li Fengyun waved his hand vigorously, "If you take Shagou City, the battle situation will be under control." ”

The generals agreed.

That night, the news of Qin Qiong's defeat and ascension to the city and the siege of Changqing reached Licheng, and the atmosphere in the county government suddenly became tense.

Zhang Xutuo did not believe that Qin Qiong would be defeated at all, and his army would be surrounded by rebels. The people of Jibei were timid and cowardly, and fled when they saw the rebels, so Zhang Xutuo believed that the news was wrong. Yang Qian's 100,000 hurriedly sent messengers to Zhongchuan Water to verify the authenticity of the news. I didn't sleep all night, and the whole county government was tormented with anxiety.

On the eve of dawn, Qin Qiong's personal guards galloped more than 100 miles and submitted a secret report, confirming that the news was true, Qin Qiong was defeated and surrounded in Changqing City, and was in danger.

Zhang Xutuo was in a hurry, he couldn't believe that the strength of the white thief had reached such a point. Hearing that Liang Dezhong's entire army was wiped out before, he intuitively felt that it was a conspiracy, a conspiracy set up by the King of Qi, and the white thief just happened to take advantage of it in vain, who expected that the white thief really had the strength to destroy the three thousand eagles and defend it, which was too surprising.

"Is there any latest news from Tang Wanren?" Zhang Xutuo stood in front of the map and asked Yang Qian.

Yang Qian pointed to Shagou City on the map, "Since Tang Zuoshi withdrew to Shagou yesterday morning, I have not seen the rebels force into Shagou, but yesterday afternoon, the battle situation on the front line of Shengcheng and Changqing changed abruptly, and the white thieves had the advantage. ”

"Ming Gong, without further ado, fire reinforcement Shagou City." Yang Qian eagerly built yì, "The city of Shagou is small, which is not conducive to defense, and it may be difficult to resist the rebels with the strength of Tang Zuoshi." ”

Zhang Xutuo turned his eyes to look at Wu Heimin, "Reinforcement Shagou City, and try to ensure that Shagou is not lost." ”

Wu Heimin bowed down to receive the order and rushed away.

However, before Wu Heimin left the city, Tang Wanren of Shagou City urgently reported that Shagou was fiercely attacked by the rebels and was in danger.

Zhang Xutuo was furious, "A certain person went to the front line and killed him." ”
