Pingliang Province. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

At night, the lights of Maojia Village have been extinguished, and it is completely integrated into the night. Only the bright moon hanging high in the sky could see the faint candlelight reflected in the window of an inconspicuous hut.

Inside the hut, three figures collapsed by the wall, a man and two women, both with cloth towels in their mouths, and their hands tied behind them with long, tight hemp ropes. A frightened "whine" filled the entire hut.

In front of them, stood a tall figure. It was Lian Zhan who disappeared after escaping from Yizhou. For the three people in front of him, he showed no mercy, wiped the long sword in his hand indifferently, and said softly to himself: "Outside Song Yuan, anything can be discussed, why abandon home without making a sound." You should know that no matter where you run, we will still find out in the end. Why bother to make it look like this? ”

Out of the corner of his eye, he saw the middle-aged woman who was constantly struggling, and a touch of playfulness appeared on the corner of Lian Zhan's mouth. "What? Mrs. Song still has something to say? Give you a chance, say it. He reached out and took the cloth from the woman's mouth.

"Help... The cry for help finally stuck in her throat, and the woman's eyes widened as she looked at the long sword that had sunk into her chest, and after a slight tremor in her body, her neck was crooked and there was no sound.

"Song Yuanwai, look at this trouble. I kindly gave her a chance to beg for mercy, but she wanted to die herself. Alas, really, as long as she begs me well, for the sake of how much charm she still has, maybe I will spare her life. Lian Zhan drew back his sword and wiped it again. How? Do you have something to say too? I don't think it's necessary, I can't let anyone go today, and I can't let you go. ”

Song Yuanwai was still struggling to writhe.

"Okay, I'll do it today, and give you a chance to confess your last words." Lian Zhan reached out and removed the cloth towel from his mouth.

Song Yuanwai gasped heavily, he looked at his wife lying beside him, his eyes flashed with a touch of sadness, and then he said in a hoarse voice: "You have already got the things, I know that I will not escape death, and now there is only one request." ”

"Say it."

"Spare my daughter from dying."

Lian Zhan glanced at the girl who was shivering astringently, smiled and shook his head. "It's a little hard for me."

"She is innocent and doesn't know anything." Song Yuanwai lay at Lian Zhan's feet, kowtowed a few times, and kept saying: "No matter what you do with her, please spare her life, I beg you, I beg you." ”

"Whew..." Lian Zhan thought about it for a long time before he said, "Okay, who made me soft-hearted." I promise you to spare her from dying. Does Song Yuanwai have any other last words? ”

"It's gone." After getting a satisfactory answer, Song Yuanwai finally restrained his breath and closed his eyes in resignation.

After stabbing Song Yuanwai to death with a sword, Lian Zhan raised his sword to cut the hemp rope on the girl's wrist, and said lightly: "I promise your father to spare your life, let's go, go far away, don't let me see you again." ”

The girl got up, looked at the bodies of her parents, gritted her teeth, and ran out of the house. The moment she opened the door of the house, a sword blade full of blood suddenly poked its head out of her chest, and she looked back at Lian Zhan with a cruel smile on her face in disbelief, and the strength of her whole body seemed to be drained in an instant, and her whole body collapsed limply.

"Well done!" After the girl fell, a pair of parents walked in from outside the door, and the thin middle-aged man nodded and said, "I really fell in love with this girl, and I will show mercy, not bad!" Xiao Zhan, you have indeed grown a lot in the past few months. ”

"Uncle Dingzhou laughed." Lian Zhan replied lightly: "My father and family hate me, how can my little nephew make a mistake because of his beauty." ”

Xue Yulian, who was following her father, pouted dissatisfiedly. "It's a nice thing to say, but I don't know who is praising the woman's charm, is she very beautiful? How is it better than me? ”

"Naturally, it's not as good as Sister Lian." Lian Zhan smiled and said a word.

Xue Dingzhou looked around the room and said, "The task is complete, Xiao Zhan, congratulations." From today onwards, you are the captain of the Xuanyin Hall, and you can access higher-level missions. Uncle, the position of the hall master, was given to your uncle by your father, and after you and Yulian got married, the uncle will resign and return the position of the hall master to your family. Brother Haoran is as kind to his uncle as a mountain, and his uncle will definitely help you keep climbing up, but before that, you still have to rely on your own ability to make some achievements, and satisfying your superiors is the key. ”

"Uncle Dingzhou, thank you."

"One family doesn't talk two words." Xue Dingzhou patted Lian Zhan on the shoulder with a smile and said, "Uncle just received a message before he came here. Yizhou and Da Zhou are at war, and the lord seems to be interested in investigating the intelligence of Yizhou, you grew up there, this is a good opportunity. If... ”

"Uncle Dingzhou, the intelligence nephew of Yizhou doesn't know."

"Xiao Zhan...

"The father and the family hate it, and you must not fake it to others, otherwise why would the little nephew be greedy for being born here?"

"Well, Uncle is just a suggestion, since you insist, Uncle supports you. It is not advisable to stay here for a long time, so evacuate first. ”

For Lien Zhan, Yizhou belongs to him, including that person, and so is naturally, once the spy alliance infiltrates and the imperial court intervenes, the situation will gradually turn to an unpredictable future, which is by no means a good thing. He would rather keep waiting, waiting for him to be able to take back everything that was rightfully his.

-----------------------

Yanping Province.

The progress of the war was extremely unsmooth, and the Yizhou army's unreasonable cards made Ji Weiming a little overwhelmed, he organized several attacks, but he didn't even have a chance to start a decent battle. Li Mu commanded the Yizhou army, constantly wandering around the battlefield, and once the Great Zhou army arrived, he immediately fled far away. After the Zhou army retreated in vain, he would immediately catch up.

The continuous attacks made Ji Weiming extremely annoyed in his heart, seeing that the two armies had been holding each other for more than a month, and the dissatisfaction of the imperial court was increasing day by day, Ji Weiming knew that he could not delay it any longer.

The 150,000 army poured out, the column phalanx slowly moved forward, and began to charge towards the Yizhou army camp, Ji Weiming made up his mind, and he would never return to the camp without any results today.

In the face of the firmness and decisiveness shown by the Great Zhou army, Li Mu did not choose to retreat this time, he divided the cavalry into two wings and placed them on both sides of the battle array.

"This is going to be fought!" The scene in front of him made Ji Weiming overjoyed. "Fifty thousand against my 150,000 army, is it not an egg to hit a stone? Rush to the king! ”

Thirty miles, twenty miles, ten miles, the two armies facing each other in the open plain finally collided.

"Hmph, but that's it." Ji Weiming snorted coldly and ordered: "The 60,000 troops on both wings will surround me, I don't know whether they are dead or alive, this king wants them to come and go today." ”

The main cavalry of the Great Zhou was drawn.

Not long after, Ji Hanliang, the general of Zhenguo, suddenly said in a loud voice: "Uncle Wang, look, the two wings of the Yizhou army have moved. ”

"Oh?" Ji Weiming stretched his neck to take a look, and suddenly smiled: "I actually have the same idea as this king, but it's a pity that I can't do it myself, with only 70,000 soldiers and horses, don't you still want to make dumplings for me?" Hmph, I'm not afraid of breaking their thin skin. Rush! Greet the king! ”

As the infantry officially began to fight, the cavalry of the two armies moved at the same time. It's just that the battle situation was greatly unexpected by Ji Weiming.

"Zhuge Crossbow" once again made a significant contribution.

The crossbow arrows fell in unison, and the 20,000 crossbow riders fought out the power of 200,000 bow horses, which was the real cover of the sky, and the sharp arrows that fell like raindrops had no possibility of dodging at all, and the spears in their hands waved indiscriminately, almost just in an instant, the big six thousand cavalry had fallen into three percent, and they couldn't even raise their heads before they were completely defeated.

Who would dare to rush in this situation? Whoever rushes dies.

After defeating the opponent's cavalry, the crossbow cavalry did not make any stops, and after bypassing the front of the Zhou army, they fired another volley at the Chinese army's gun array. After defeating it, the cavalry put away their crossbows, drew their spears, cut into the gaps in the front army, and reaped the foot soldiers.

Li Mu didn't know how the difference in strength was, he was going to make dumplings, but before that, he had to divide the meat filling. The 20,000 cavalry was like a sharp machete, cutting the Zhou army in an instant, and the 50,000 heavily armored foot soldiers of the front army were pinched into the dumpling skin one by one.

"Rush up, hurry up and break the hole!" Ji Weiming's heart was in a hurry.

Ji Hanliang beside him muttered with a pale face: "It's over, it can't be broken, the opponent's crossbow arrows are too powerful, and without the protection of the heavily armored foot soldiers, our army can't rush up at all." Damn it! Where did they get these horrible crossbow arrows? One for everyone? How much did it bring? No wonder, no wonder the Fujian sailors lost so quickly... ”

"Such as... How is it good? "It's true that Ji Weiming is familiar with military books, but once there is an accident in the battle formation, he doesn't know how to turn around. At this moment, my mind is in turmoil, my mind is blank, and I have long lost my mind.

"Withdraw!" Ji Hanliang gritted his teeth and said: "As long as the opponent's crossbow arrows are enough, it will be dangerous to fight our 150,000 army again. ”

"Okay, okay... Order, the whole army retreats! ”

What kind of retreat is this, it is simply a flight for life, chaotic and unorganized, and the remaining 80,000 soldiers have risked their lives to flee, leaving behind the robe with no way to escape.

"Surrender! We'll surrender! I don't know who shouted, and the Zhou army in the encirclement immediately reacted and dropped the weapons in their hands one by one.

70,000 faced 150,000, and at the cost of losing more than 3,000 people, 30,000 enemies were annihilated and 40,000 were captured alive.

After this battle, Li Mu became famous! (To be continued.) )
