Lingzhou Mansion, east of the county.

"Mr. Lan! That ......" Zhu Changxun came to Lan Yu's place with a anxious face, and said embarrassedly: "Mr. Lan, you said that you wanted me to cooperate with you, I don't know this ......"

Looking at Zhu Changxun's watch, Lan Yu knew that Zhu Changxun was afraid that he had already made others find out that the situation was not good, so he was in a hurry to come to him for help. He smiled and said, "What?" Are you sure my message is true now? ”

Zhu Changxun smiled awkwardly and said, "Convinced!" I'm convinced, the intelligence of the Xiaoguo Army is really powerful! Even the internal military orders of the guards are known. ”

Lan Yu knew that in order to make this Zhu Changxun use of the crisis, he worked hard and went around a big circle to get the news from the guards, and Bai Xi also made a big effort. In the past, he and the navy army resisted the Xiaoguo army, but after the navy surrendered, he left. Xiao Guojun took some of his things, intimidated and coerced, causing him to leak some news.

"General Zhu, how many can you order these three thousand guards?"

Zhu Changxun smiled bitterly: "When the troops are deployed, no one of the three thousand people will obey. But now, I'm afraid that as soon as things are clear, everyone will listen to me. The only people who really obeyed my orders were my 200 personal guards. ”

Lan Yu understood that this Zhu Changxun really wanted to kill the envoy and cooperate with the Xiaoguo Army, and the three thousand guards might immediately chop off Zhu Changxun's head and send him to Donglai Mansion. Tang Xian and Shen Yuanhe dared to ignore the military orders of the King of Qi and the imperial court, and privately dropped the army, which can be seen that they have control over their subordinates. What's more, in the eastern part of Qingzhou, the Wei army has the advantage and the momentum is huge, and now no one dares to have two ambitions.

"When will the Guards announce the military order? How much does it guard? ”

"On the morning of the next day, assemble the army and announce it in public. There are more than 200 guards, but they are all the general's iron-blooded guards who supervise all sides of the war, and their strength is not small. ”

Lan Yu smiled slightly and said, "It seems that I am going to use the men and horses of my Xiaoguo Army!" Then let's kill them! ”

"But the guard soldiers already know that the military order will be read out the morning after tomorrow, and they will ...... when the time comes."

"When the time comes, General Zhu needs to announce his surrender to the Xiaoguo Army!" Lan Yu said lightly.

"What?" Zhu Changxun suddenly jumped up and said urgently: "The three thousand guards will divide my body with a knife, and then ......"

"General Zhu, do you have any other choice? The reason why the guards came to make a big show was to let the 3,000 guards know, even if you knew that the situation was wrong, they would not dare to act recklessly. Why, General Zhu is willing to die? Lan Yu said in a deep voice.

"I ...... How many people are in your Xiaoguo army? Can you hold down 3,000 guards? Zhu Changxun said with a gloomy face.

"At noon today, the 15,000 Xiaoguo army will arrive at the water camp a hundred miles away in the east, do you think you can suppress the 3,000 guards?"

"What do you need me to do?"

"Poison the envoys and guards, gather all the guards and soldiers in the school yard the day after tomorrow, and at the same time, open the city gate, let my Xiaoguo army enter the city, and suppress the guards." Lan Yu said coldly.

"Good...... I did it...... He was unkind to me and unjust, he asked me to take care of the navy, and now he wants to get rid of me, don't think about it! Zhu Changxun said with a hideous face.

Immediately, he smiled bitterly and said, "In this way, isn't it equivalent to surrendering to your Xiaoguo army?" ”

Lan Yu smiled: "Isn't it good to serve my Xiaoguo Army?" ”

Yongzhou, Dongzhou Prefecture, northwest of Yi County.

Zhao Mang's retreat to Jizhou was overtaken by the imperial army.

"Herald! War! Zhao Mang looked coldly at the preparations behind him and ordered. Nearly 20,000 troops gathered, and if their seven or eight thousand people just evacuated with their heads covered, they would only be defeated in the end, and they could only fight in formation.

Murong Cheng and Situ Lei chased and attacked the Xiaoguo Army and Qianniu Wei in the Taihang Mountain like crazy, but fortunately, after Zhang Yuanjing and the others discussed, they immediately evacuated in batches. Soon after the army withdrew, the imperial army began to set fire to the mountain and surrounded it on all sides.

Chasing Zhao Mang along the way were the Shenwu Army and the Changwu Army, which had suffered a big loss from the Xiaoguo Army and was plundered by the Taihang Mountain Army, plus Situ Lei's son was also killed in the hands of Qianniuwei, so these two armies chased the evacuated Xiaoguo Army to the death.

Looking at the guards who began to set up a formation, Zhao Mang's face sank like water. Now there is no way out, only a battle, and it is better to win or repel the enemy army, otherwise...... This is the Guards, not the government troops that intercepted them earlier.

Sen Ran's cold glow floated from Zhao Mang's eyes, rode his horse to the front of the 8,000 soldiers under his command, raised his right arm, and the noise of the military riot calmed down in an instant, and there was a slaughter all around, only the heavy breath of the soldiers and the long and distant trumpets of the officers and soldiers in the distance could be heard clearly.

"Brothers, how about the imperial court's nearly 100,000 troops raiding my Qianniuwei camp? They still let them lose their troops and kill Situ Lei's old son, but we are still alive and well. Now, nearly 20,000 troops are chasing after us, are you afraid? ”

"Don't be afraid! War! War! War! ”

Eight thousand soldiers responded violently, and their momentum was high.

Zhao Mang pointed to the front with the city wall, and shouted: "The guards in front, how different from them? Today, either they die or we die! Brothers, hold the steel sword in your hand, slay the army and take the commandery, and kill ...... today."

"Kill!"

Zhao Mang howled, turned his horse's head, raised his spear, and galloped towards the cold military formation of the guards on the opposite side.

"Kill ......"

In the roar of the mountains and the sea, 8,000 soldiers rushed forward with their lives, like a surging torrent that broke the embankment, swept towards the guards, and the cold steel knife reflected the entire wilderness.

…………

In the middle of the guard army, Ling Xiao, the commander of Situ Lei's personal faction, looked coldly at the Qianniuwei on the opposite side, and said coldly: "Qianniuwei, it is really extraordinary!" But today is your time of death! ”

Ling Xiao took a deep breath of cold air and shouted, "Archers prepare to ......"

Thousands of archers immediately removed their longbows from their backs and drew their arrows from their quivers and placed them on their strings......

"Sword and shield soldiers ahead, vertical shields...... Pick up the pace and kill! ”

In front of the Thousand Niu Guards, a trace of cold flames swept through Zhao Mang's eyes, and the terrible roar overpowered the rolling footsteps and clearly entered the ears of every soldier, and the scorching killing machine was wrapped in boiling blood, churning in the chest of every Thousand Niu Guard.

"Die!"

Zhao Mang's eyes were split, and the spear in his hand stabbed out, killing the neck of a front-line officer of the guard.

The officer was not afraid, and raised his sword to meet him with a tiger roar.

"Thorny ......"

The sparks flashed, and the sound of Qingyue's gold and iron resounded in the sky, and the long sword of the guard officer could not withstand such a violent impact and broke in unison, and the spear in Zhao Mang's hand had already pierced his throat. After Zhao Mang, a red fountain erupted from the neck of the guard officer.

In the middle of the guards, Ling Xiao shouted: "Release the arrow......"

"Woo Woo ......"

The rain of arrows rose into the air, and in an instant, they fell into the sky above the Thousand Niu Guards.

"Raise your shield, block ......"

"Bouncing ......"

The arrows slammed into the shield, and a strange music erupted. Similarly, many of the soldiers were shot by a rain of arrows and fell to the ground, but the soldiers around them did not see it at all and continued to fight forward.

"The thief will be rampant, kill!"

Two howls of exhaustion came from Zhao Mang's left and right sides at the same time, and two cold spears went straight to Zhao Mang's left and right chests like poisonous snakes, and the sharp tips of the spears were already close at hand! It was two sturdy guard soldiers, the expressions on their faces were extremely distorted, and their eyes flashed with crazy flames, no different from the devil, either you die or I die.

"Just you? Go to hell! ”

"Bouncing ......"

The spear in Zhao Xun's hand instantly ejected, connecting the two spears and stabbing into the chests of the two in an instant, killing the horse.

In just an instant, the guards and Qianniuwei were mixed together and started a fierce battle. The Qianniu guards fought desperately to survive, but the guards had the advantage of being outnumbered.

A Thousand Niu Guards had two broken spears stuck in his abdomen, a section of intestines flowing outside his body, still fighting to the death, his red eyes were burning with the light of a beast, and a hostile guard soldier was terrified, and his head was lifted off by the seriously injured Thousand Niu Guard.

A guard sword and shield soldier swept away the legs of a Thousand Niu Guard, but before he could get excited, the fallen Thousand Niu Guard had already pounced fiercely, choked his throat tightly, and roared wildly: "Want to kill me? Kill me! I will die with you! The sword and shield soldier was horrified, and stabbed the opponent's chest and abdomen frantically with a knife, and in an instant, the chest and abdomen of the Qianniu guard were already blurred, but he still opened his angry eyes, his hands were pinched, and there were red blood stains sliding down from his cracked eyes, as hideous as a ghost.

A sturdy guard soldier rode a thousand ox guard under his crotch, his hands clung to the other man's throat, and he was about to fight to the death, when a sudden cold spear had ruthlessly pierced his broad shoulder. The guard's eyes widened suddenly, and a wisp of red blood slowly overflowed from the corner of his mouth, and from then on, his wife and children would never see him again.

In the middle of the guards, Ling Xiao looked at the Qianniu guards who were fighting frantically, and shouted: "Order, the archers cover the front army!" ”

"My lord, the front army and the soldiers of our guard!" The officers of the two guards beside Ling Xiao were shocked and said urgently.

Ling Xiao said coldly: "I know, but now they have been killed by the Thousand Niu Guards. There are more guards in the former army than there are soldiers in our guards! Give the order! ”

"Shoot the arrows!" The commander insisted on this, and the other officers did not dare to disobey it. This officer was directly sent by Situ Lei, and he had the right to cut the officers at all levels first, and if he did it for the sake of this ordinary soldier, he would not be able to lose his head.

"Woo Woo ......"

Another round of arrows poured down, this time, not in the rear army of Qianniuwei, but in the front army where the guard and Qianniuwei were fighting together.

"What the are you...... The arrow from behind ...... "When a soldier was killed, his eyes were full of incomprehension and resentment.

Where the battle was fought, a large number of people suddenly fell, the guards and the Qianniu guards were all there, and the Qianniu guards were better, but those who were fighting with the guards scolded one after another, but this could not change the fact that they were under the cover of the prison.

"Pass the order, and then there is a retreat, and those who do not fight bravely to kill the enemy will be served by a rain of arrows!" Ling Xiao shouted.
