Shui Qingliu saw the crossbowmen of the northern army of Yanbei pressing the formation, and a team of thousands of people came to the front of the formation, and a young general came to the front of the formation and mocked it, but the other troops did not move at all, and they already understood what Wei Zeng meant.

"Wei Zeng is really interesting, he doesn't fight us directly, but lets this team of thousands of people fight against us. I see that these thousands of people are wearing heavy armor, and they are also holding blunt weapons in their hands, which should be the so-called Guanshan Lux in Yanbei. Wei Zeng is so interesting, we can't be boring. Send out the halberd soldiers of Hebing City, I also want to see whether our halberd soldiers in Guanbei are stronger, or their wrestlers in Yanbei are stronger. Shui Qingliu said with a smile.

Shui Qingliu gave an order, and the halberders of the right wing of Hebing City also divided into thousands of people and came to the front of the formation. Just when these thousands of halberd soldiers were less than a hundred paces away from the Guanshan camp, both sides stopped firing their bows and crossbows.

The duel between the strong and the strong, who will kill the deer is also a thing that can attract people's interest.

When Yu Chaogui saw the enemy fighting, he returned to the camp. Guan Shan Lux with a steel whip in his hand formed a shield wall in front of him, and the others were interspersed in the rear, waiting for Yu Chaogui's order to attack.

The Hebing halberd soldiers walked neatly, with the halberd on their shoulders, and approached the military formation of the Guanshan camp step by step. The halberders in the front row had already raised their halberds, and when the two armies clashed, they smashed the halberds and hooked them to kill the enemy.

Under the command of Yu Chaogui, Guan Shan Lux also began to move forward, first step by step, and then gradually quickened his pace, when the two armies intersected, the soldiers in the front row, with their shields, rushed to the camp of the halberders.

On the contrary, the Hebing Halberd approached the Guanshan camp at an unhurried pace. At the time of the confrontation, the soldiers in the front row paused, and the halberds took advantage of their length. Straight stabs, vertical slashes, and attacks the Guan Shan wrestlers who rush over. After being hit by Guan Shan Lux , the soldiers in the front row not only did not move forward, but took a few steps back. The halberd soldiers in the back row, in cooperation with the halberd soldiers in the front row, attacked Guan Shan Lux who intended to fight close to him.

Guan Shan Lux forged ahead. You want to get close to the halberd and kill the enemy. The Ice Halberd soldiers fought and retreated, and the halberds in front and behind cooperated with each other. Kill and injure the Guan Shan wrestlers who rushed over.

With the cover of the front row of wrestlers, the back row of wrestlers rushed into the formation of halberders. The wrestlers in the back row are all iron rods, giant axes, and sledgehammers. Rush into the enemy camp. In desperation, he slammed the weapon in both hands.

The combined city halberd soldiers were defeated by the onslaught of Guanshan Lux, and they were killed in close combat, and the advantages of these halberders could not be brought into play at all.

Seeing that he had fallen behind, and that he was bound to fail in close combat with Guan Shan Lux, the halberd general ordered his soldiers to let go of the rushing wrestlers and spread out to both sides.

Guan Shan Lux saw that the enemy had retreated sharply. He wanted to tear apart the enemy as before. Each break. Unexpectedly, after the halberd opened the distance, they fought and retreated, taking advantage of the length of the weapon, and continued to injure the enemy in the retreat.

The halberders who retreated to the two flanks advanced forward and slashed the flanks of the Guanshan battalion. The advantages of the Guanshan battalion were being consumed little by little, and the Ice Halberd soldiers seemed to have more and more the upper hand.

Yu Chaogui commanded the battle of the Guanshan battalion in the rear, and saw that the halberd soldiers were under the command of the enemy's generals, sometimes retreating, sometimes attacking, and taking advantage of the length of the weapon to gain the battlefield advantage little by little.

"As long as we can get close to the enemy, the enemy is not our opponent at all. Do not pursue the other enemies, but follow me and rush to the enemy's banner, for if you take the enemy's banner, they will surely be defeated without command. Yu Chaogui ordered, and then took the lead and rushed towards the banner of the generals of the Ice Halberd Soldiers.

Guan Shan Lux saw that Yu Chaogui was the first soldier, and they all gathered around his banner, and as Yu Chaogui rushed towards the enemy's general flag, he did not avoid life and death at all.

The Ice Halberd opened the distance to hook and kill the enemy, but the flag was attacked, and he couldn't help it. Although the flanks killed and wounded many enemies, the enemy continued to rush forward regardless of the slightest. In order to protect the general flag, the Ice Halberd had to block ahead of Guanshan Lux and start a melee fight with Guanshan Lux.

Yu Chaogui led people to rush to the front of the enemy's general flag, brandished a steel rod, and was about to kill the enemy general and seize the general flag.

"What a yellow-haired boy, you dare to come to die, then I will accept your dog's head today." The enemy general, seeing Yu Chaogui killed, picked up the halberd and greeted him.

Under Wei Zeng's personal guidance, Yu Chaogui obtained Wei Zeng's true inheritance of the cane method, and the steel staff and shield attacked and defended, and did not fall behind in the face of the enemy's halberd. When the enemy general's halberd was struck, the old force was exhausted, and the new force was not fired, a staff hit the enemy general's chest. The enemy general spat out a mouthful of blood and took a few steps back.

Just when Chaogui was about to kill the enemy general, several halberders rushed over and covered the enemy general to escape.

Yu Chaogui felt resentful that he could not kill the enemy general, and suddenly saw that the enemy's flag envoy was not far from him, and immediately flew away with a cane. The steel rod hit the head of the flag bearer directly, and the flag mission was lost on the spot. The enemy fell the flag to the ground, and Guan Shan Lux rushed up to seize the flag and handed it over to Yu Chaogui.

"I lost. What's the use of such an incompetent general staying, just kill it when you come back. Arrange for people in the sect to take charge of the Ice Halberd Soldiers. Shui Qingliu chuckled, his eyes were cold, and a few words decided the life and death of a general.

The Ice Halberd soldiers had already suffered a big loss in their personal killing, and now that the flag was taken away, the army was even more confused, and when they heard the voice of the Chinese army, they fled back one after another.

Yu Chaogui originally wanted to take advantage of the victory to enter the enemy's large array and inflict greater damage on the Guanbei army. But when he heard Wei Zengmingjin's order, he also brought people to withdraw.

The crossbowmen on both sides fired a few arrows at the end, and retreated from the battlefield as the sun was about to set.

"Very well, the victory in the first battle has raised the prestige of our army, so let the enemy go away. Ha ha. Wei Zeng said with a smile when he received the flag handed by Chaogui.

"Thank you, General, for giving me the opportunity to lead the troops this time. Fortunately, it lived up to the general's trust. Why don't we take advantage of the victory and pursue and defeat the enemy in one fell swoop? Yu Chaogui replied.

"If it's getting late today, fighting at night and not distinguishing between friend and foe, there will be great trouble. Now that our morale is high, we will definitely be able to occupy a great advantage in a decisive battle with the enemy army tomorrow. Don't worry, you are now the commander of an army, and there will definitely be a battle. Go back and get some rest, tomorrow will be the time for the decisive battle. Wei Zeng replied.

Yu Chaogui listened to Wei Zeng's words and retreated. Waiting for tomorrow's decisive battle.

"Miss Sa, the enemy is very insidious, and he will definitely not only fight us on a frontal battlefield. Be sure to guard the back road. It can't be like the other day, cut off by the enemy. Only if there are no problems in the rear will we be able to concentrate all our forces on the frontal battlefield. Wei Zeng turned his head and said to Sajiali.

"I have ordered people to guard the rear closely, whether it is Yushan Mountain Road or Guiwucheng, there will be no problem. How can we make the same mistake twice? Sagaree replied.

Wei Zeng nodded, and continued to discuss the decisive battle with Sagargary tomorrow.

Victory in the first battle. The morale of the Yanbei army was high, and it opened its position early in the morning of the second day to start a decisive battle with the Guanbei army. Shui Qingliu personally commanded the army and fought with Wei Zeng in this plain. And the water is clear and flowing on the frontal battlefield. It's just a matter of delaying time for a secret scheme.

Under the command of Shui Qingliu, Zuo Qinwei and Wang Qinwei have gone to the hinterland of Mobei and Yanbei respectively. Shui Qingliu wanted Wei Zeng to lead the army to fight on the front line, and taste the taste of fire in the rear.

Since being defeated by Wei Zeng a few years ago, the Zhantu people in Mobei have been caught in a melee, and the Zhantu tribes have fought against each other. It has made the Zhan Turks completely unthreatening to the Central Plains. Just the rise of Asa in the north. It aroused the vigilance of several large tribes of Zhantu.

The warriors of the tribe of Asa are dressed in iron armor, and the bows, arrows, and sabers in their hands are all refined, and they can easily win in the face of several times the enemy, and they are known as the ghost army for a while. Several large tribes of Zhantu were afraid in their hearts, so the left guards who came to Mobei promised to form alliances and trade weapons, and the leaders of several large tribes were very tempted.

"What you mean is that as long as we lead our troops to attack Yanbei, you are willing to trade weapons with us. If we are attacked by the enemy. You will also send troops to our rescue. But you Central Plains people are very cunning, how can I believe that what you say is true? The leader of a Zhantu tribe said.

"You don't have to trust me. You just have to believe in yourselves. That small tribe in Mobei is now invincible because of the steel we provide. Don't you want to be like them and make all your enemies fearful? Or do you want to wait for them to grow stronger and be wiped out by them? Zuo Qinwei said.

"It's natural to be able to trade steel, but if you form an alliance, what can we Zhan Tu and you Central Plains people have to ally with. Die for you Central Plains people, am I not a fool? The leader of Zhantu replied.

"I heard that since a few years ago, the 100,000 Zhan Tu cavalry was beaten by Wei Zeng and 30,000 horses. Since then, the Mobei Flying Eagle has become a nightmare for the Zhantu people, as long as they hear Wei Zeng's name, everyone can run faster than a rabbit. Don't you want to wash away the shame that Wei has put on your heads? Zuo Qinwei chuckled.

The leaders of the Tun Tun and the nobles in the camp all glared angrily when they heard these words, the defeat a few years ago was already a wound in their hearts, and now it was naturally painful to be provoked.

"Defeating Wei Zeng is naturally our wish, but the 100,000 horses failed at the beginning, how can more than 10,000 people in our tribe fight against him." The leader of Zhantu was also very angry, but his fear of Wei Zeng also made him dare not rush to send troops.

"Now Wei Zeng is leading an army of 100,000 to attack our Guanbei, and the rear of Yanbei is very empty. With the armor and weapons we have provided to you, the Yanbei people have no advantage to speak of. And I have already sent people to inform several other tribes, and they have all agreed to use troops against Yanbei. When Wei Da's army left Yanbei, he took his lair, isn't that a very happy thing? Zuo Qinwei said.

"Well, I promise to make an alliance with you, and bring you the weapons and armor you brought, and I am willing to exchange them with you for horses. This time, it is necessary to make Wei Zeng often feel like a fire in the backyard. The leader of the Turks agreed.

Zuo Qinwei had already sent people to several large tribes of Zhantu, and within a few days, all of them sent cavalry south to attack Yanbei. It's just that several tribes don't trust each other and scatter their actions.

Wang Qinwei also quietly came to the hinterland of Yanbei, contacted some of the original wealthy families, and bribed many ruffians to cause chaos in the rear of Yanbei.

Since Wei Zeng took charge of Yanbei, he has supported many children of the poor family, and the interests of some wealthy families have been damaged, so they are dissatisfied with Wei Zeng, especially those who were deprived of property by Wei Zeng at the beginning of the uprising, and they are full of complaints. It's just that the Yanbei Righteous Army has won wars one after another, and its strength is getting stronger and stronger, although these wealthy families are unwilling in their hearts, they can only express their support for Wei Zeng on the surface.

Now Qian Qinwei's words of willingness to restore their previous status have moved many wealthy families. When the Zhan Tu people attacked southward, some wealthy clans rebelled.

"Mr. Qi's big thing is not good, according to the report from the northern border army, the Zhan Tu people in Mobei have entered the army in large numbers, and the northern border army has asked for support." One of them hurriedly walked into the council hall and said to Qi Weiren.

"Can the Tunturians who have joined them rebel?" Qi Weilun asked eagerly.

"The Zhantu people in Mobei threatened to kill all the Central Plains and Nanhu, and those Zhang Tu people who belonged to us could only rely on us, and had no intention of rebellion." The visitor replied. A few years ago, during the first battle in Mobei, some of the Zhantu people were unwilling to go to the bitter cold land of Mobei, so they attached themselves to Wei Zeng, and these people were called Nanhu by other Zhantu people, and were regarded as betrayers of the Zhantu people.

"These attached Zhantu people are honest, but I've heard that some big families can't help but want to make some small moves. The northern border army was ordered to clear the wall and clear the wilderness, and it could not be held. I'm going to send the defenders from other places to support. Qi Weiren replied.

"Shall we inform General Wei? As long as General Wei's army rushes back, the Zhan Tu people will definitely not take advantage of it. A civil official beside Qi Weilun said.

"The Zhantu people didn't come early, they didn't come late, but they came when the virtuous brother was on an expedition to Guanbei, which is really a coincidence. What's even more coincidental is that in recent days, some unknown people have been in frequent contact with people from several big families, so you can take a look at these ciphertexts. Qi Weilun said as he pulled out a few secret letters and handed them to several civil officials.

"It turns out that Mr. Qi has been on guard for a long time, and I don't know how Mr. Qi should deal with these collaborators. Judging from the ciphertext, all of this is the devil's doing, I wonder what Mr. Qi can do to deal with them? Several civil servants asked.

"Brother Xian is leading the army to fight a decisive battle with Shui Qingliu, if you notify Brother Xian to withdraw, he will inevitably be plotted by Shui Qingliu, and Brother Xian will inevitably fall into a crisis at that time. For now, reinforcements can only be mobilized from all over the country to hold the north. The Gu brothers' horse team is far away in Xu Huai, but Xu Huai should be able to rush back in time when he arrives in Pingchuan, Mobei. As for the people of those families...... In the past, in order to stabilize the hearts of the people in Yanbei, they have been trying to win them over; When the Iron Army came, I also gave them a lot of benefits in order to stabilize them. Now they are not satisfied, and they want to unite with outsiders to rebel, and they really can't keep them. I'm tired of guarding them all the time, so I don't need to give them any warning, just let them go. If you are willing to support the virtuous brother and support the hegemony of the virtuous brother, let them survive well. If greed is insufficient, then it is time for them to suffer. But tell the local guards that there is no need to make too many killings, and kill the first evil, and the others will be sent to the frontier. Qi Weilun commanded.

Several civil servants listened to Qi Weilun's words and went down to issue orders.
