Li Huaizhu gave an order: "Throw radium and fireballs." The projectile soldier propped up the projector, loaded it with radium and fireballs, and threw it at the Xu State stormtroopers, and the people who smashed them fell to the ground one after another. Cao Wenxiang also ordered the soldiers of his team: "Shoot ......" The crossbowmen shot several rows of feather arrows into the Tang soldiers' formation.

Wu Fengying hurriedly shouted: "To the left." ”

Zhang Meiying shouted at the same time: "To the right." ”

The shield bearer hurriedly escorted the three armies to the left and right, and the rain of arrows fell in the clearing.

Cao Wenxiang's nose was almost crooked, he waved the battle flag, and began to charge for the second time. Li Huaizhu also waved the battle flag and led the army forward. The two sides fought for five hours, the Tang soldiers were killed and wounded more than 2,000 people, Xu Guobing was almost all killed, and only dozens of remnants of the defeated generals remained, and Cao Wenxiang was killed and protected around Niu Jianguangluan.

Li Huaizhu shouted: "You have already been defeated, and if you don't surrender quickly, when will you wait?" ”

Cao Wenxiang said: "Dog Tang Man, don't be proud, let the horse come over if you have the ability!" ”

Li Huaizhu said: "Since you insist on not surrendering, then don't blame the ruthlessness of the Heavenly Empire's subordinates!" As soon as he waved his flag and sails, Wu and Zhang Er galloped out, the infantry ran and followed, the cavalry urged the horses forward, and the archers lined up on both wings.

Wu Fengying flew his sword and killed more than a dozen enemy guards, jumped in front of Cao Wenxiang, and stabbed with a spear. Cao Wenxiang slid around, dodged two feet, and attacked Wu Fengying's legs with a backhand shot. Wu Fengying's right hand hooked the gun and pressed the tip of Cao Wenxiang's gun, secretly moved the index and middle two fingers of his left hand, sacrificed the flying sword, and stabbed him in the back of the heart. Cao Wenxiang has been on the battlefield for a long time, heard the wind behind him, and quickly moved his left palm, so that a move "Lao Jun Back Ding" to block the sword, but unexpectedly, the Qinglong sword was extremely sharp, breaking through the strength of his palm. Through the palm, his teeth trembled in pain. Wu Fengying suddenly swept the gun from Cao Wenxiang's right wrist and put away the sword. Sent a gun into his right ribs, and Huo Di picked it up. Crushed his ribs by a few inches. Cao Wenxiang's body trembled violently, and he fell to the ground softly. Wu Fengying hurriedly took the sword in his hand, cut off his head with a "click", flew out of the sword, and forced Niu Jianguangluan to drive. Niu Jianguang's guards and personal soldiers rose up to resist and started a life-and-death duel with the Tang army. After a fierce battle, Xu Guo's guards and personal soldiers were dedicated to protecting the lord, and they all died on the battlefield. Zhang Meiying slashed Luan with a knife. grabbed Niu Jianguang and handed it over to the infantry, and brought his family and Prime Minister He Zheng back to his team.

Li Huaizhu said: "All the generals, quickly escort Niu Jianguang back to Shezhou, and wait for the emperor to make a decision." ”

The soldiers escorted Niu Jianguang back to Shezhou and imprisoned him. Li Huaizhu ordered people to kill pigs and sheep to reward the three armies, and at the same time wrote a letter to Li Yuan, the son of Tang Dynasty, stating the current military situation in Mingzhou. The messenger hurried to Chang'an.

Cheng Jizong, one of the four commanders of Xu State, led his troops to the outside of Xuzhou. launched many sieges, but the defenders of Xuzhou were extremely brave, and he ended in failure. Suddenly, I received an urgent report from the capital of my country. He hurriedly led his troops south, used Jiangdu as a military base, and quickly marched to Shezhou. When he came to Bailong Pass, the army was blocked by rocks, and he ordered the infantry to quickly move the stones out of the canyon and continue to advance.

The military advisor Ma Shizhuo urged him to step forward and persuaded him: "Marshal, the terrain of Bailong Pass is like a pocket, which is very conducive to setting up an ambush. Why don't we get out of the canyon and find another way back to Beijing? ”

Cheng Jizong said: "The military advisor is too worried. Looks like there's already been a big battle here. The Tang army categorically will not set up ambushes again. Bailong Pass is the closest way to return to Beijing, and our army only needs to return to the outside of Shezhou at night. Defeating the Tang army in one fell swoop will definitely save the emperor and the prime minister. ”

The military advisor said: "Marshal, Shi Zhuo still thinks that this road cannot be continued, I hope you will think twice." ”

Cheng Jizong said: "The military advisor is relaxed, and the commander guarantees that he will be fine." ”

As soon as Cheng Jizong's voice fell, the vanguard sent a herald back to report: "Marshal, there is an ambush ahead." ”

The grain transporter ran up and said, "Report ...... Marshal, our army's grain and grass have been robbed. ”

Cheng Jizong asked angrily: "Who was robbed?" ”

"It was robbed by the Tang Army."

"What? There was also a Don Army in the rear? ”

"Exactly."

"It seems that what the military advisor said is indeed reasonable." Cheng Jizong suddenly realized, and ordered loudly: "Immediately withdraw from Bailong Pass and change the route to march." ”

Suddenly, there was a loud "boom" in the rear, but I saw a boulder falling from top to bottom, shaking the ground and shaking the mountain, just sealing the canyon. Two teams of Tang troops appeared on the two hills on the left and right, waving their flags and shouting.

Ma Shizhuo said: "Marshal, the retreat in the rear has been blocked, and our army can only storm the pass. ”

Cheng Jizong waved his sword and said: "Which ...... rush?"

The fighting spirit of the three armies was high, murderous and fierce. The vanguard troops were rushing, and when they broke into the organs, they were trapped in horse pits, feather arrows, bamboo thorns, and wooden stakes, and countless people were fallen, shot, stabbed, and stoned to death. I also saw radium, rolling wood, stones, and fireballs rolling down on the two mountains, all of which smashed on the Xu soldiers, and then hundreds of bundles of dry firewood with flames rolled down on the mountain, and the fire instantly engulfed the entire canyon. The soldiers are like ants on a hot pan, spinning around.

It turned out that the messenger was sent that day, and Li Huaizhu gathered all the generals in the Golden Palace of Xu Guo to discuss the matter of dealing with Cheng Jizong.

Wu Yueying said: "That Cheng Jizong received an urgent report from the capital, and he will definitely go south to help, and when the time comes, he will definitely go to Bailong Pass, and our army can also make some articles there." ”

Wu Fengying asked, "How can this be?" That Cao Wenxiang died in Bailong Pass, Xu Guo had already suffered a big loss, and Cheng Jizong was not a fool, how could he continue to advance from there? ”

Zhang Meiying said: "Even if Cheng Jizong really knows how to go to Bailong Pass, then we have to move the stones that sealed the road, right?" Otherwise, how could he have fallen for the scheme? ”

Wu Yueying said: "It's not that complicated, we only need to clean up the battlefield a little, and leave those stones to continue to close the road." I guess that Cheng Jizong saw the stones blocking the road, not only would he not detour, but would relax his vigilance, move the stones and continue to march. Think about it, if we move those stones, Cheng Jizong will inevitably think that it is a pocket array set up by our army, and open his pockets for him to drill, and at that time, he will definitely withdraw his troops or think of another calculation, how can our army have a chance of winning? ”

Zhang Meiying said: "What the eldest sister said is also reasonable, but everything is possible, how dare you assert that there is no Zhuge Liang's reincarnated military advisor under Cheng Jizong to persuade him to take a detour?" ”

Wu Yueying said: "What General Zhang said is also reasonable, our army can also make some fuss on several nearby roads, just in case." ”

Li Huaizhu said: "Since Madame has this good plan, our army might as well give it a try, and even if Bailong Pass fails to succeed at that time, there are other strategies to defeat the enemy." ”

Wu Yueying said: "In this case, everyone will act according to the plan. ”

So the Tang army set up an ambush at Bailong Pass and waited for Cheng Jizong's army to arrive.

Just when Cheng Jizong's army was facing a desperate situation, a white-robed Taoist suddenly flew in the air, and a radiant blue bead appeared in his palm, and a large piece of blue water flowed out of the bead, extinguishing the fire in the canyon in an instant, and the soldiers of Xu Guo took refuge under the rock layer and escaped. Hu Fenglian didn't know what to do, so she jumped into the air and threw her whip to fight the white-robed Taoist. The man floated away, the beads in his palm were in the air, and in the blink of an eye, he turned from blue to red, and a ball of fire erupted from within, hitting Hu Fenglian's face. Hu Fenglian saw that the flame was very vicious, and dodged away, but unexpectedly, the flame followed back and forth, constantly surrounding her, and she was in a hurry and hurriedly landed.

The man said proudly: "The Tang Dynasty may not be the first in the world, and Annan is the overlord of the world." ”

As soon as Wu Fengying recited the incantation, the flying sword went to slash the person who stayed in the air, wanting to take the opportunity to disturb his attention.

The man's smoke vanished into thin air.

Hu Fenglian swung her spear to smash the flames and returned to her team.

Everyone didn't understand who the white-robed Taoist was, let alone what kind of divine object the beads in his hand were.

Hu Fenglian said: "Could it be that this person is Zheng Chunqiu, a person from the Tianshan Lingbao Dao? It is said that this person has a bead of water and fire, which can drain the water of the galaxy and spray the true fire of samadhi. ”

Zhang Meiying said: "From this point of view, the white-robed Taoist must be Zheng Chunqiu. ”

Li Huaizhu said: "This person has a magic weapon in his hands, and he is bent on helping the enemy, our army is about to be in danger, everyone must be extra careful, and don't leave an opportunity for Zheng Chunqiu." ”

The generals and officers held the valley mouth to the death, and did not let the enemy soldiers and generals go out of the pass.

"Report ......" A Tang soldier galloped into the camp gate, dismounted and ran into the tiger tent, kneeling and saying: "Marshal, Shezhou City has been besieged by 100,000 soldiers in Annan, there are fires in many places in the city, and more than 1,000 soldiers of our army have been injured. ”

Li Huaizhu said: "Our army is now under attack from the enemy, and there is no food and grass to use, which is even more tricky. He shouted to Hu Fenglian: "General Hu, this commander ordered you to return to Shezhou to defend the city as soon as possible." ”

"Order." Hu Fenglian left the tiger tent and rushed back to Shezhou.

Tang and Xu armies faced each other at Bailongguan for two days, the Tang soldiers ran out of food and grass, and the hunger was unbearable, Cheng Jizong took advantage of the night to launch a breakthrough, led 50,000 elite soldiers to break out of the encirclement, and quickly rushed to the direction of Shezhou. Li Huaizhu was furious, and led his troops to chase him outside Shezhou City. But I saw that there were soldiers and horses in Annan all around, and there were no battle cards hanging high on the head of the city. Li Huaizhu was at a loss for a while, and had no countermeasures, leading 30,000 elite soldiers to the northwest and retreating from Wulidi.

Wu Yueying said: "Marshal, the young general has a plan, I don't know if I can offer it?" ”

Li Huaizhu said: "General Wu has any clever plan, come and listen to it quickly." ”

Wu Yueying said: "This is only a day's journey from Chizhou City, why don't I let my sister Wu Fengying go and borrow some grain and grass from Yu'e's sister to come back and solve the current crisis?" ”

Li Huaizhu said: "Well, that's fine, then I'll bother General Wu Er to go to Chizhou." ”

At this time, the people heard a convoy of soldiers and horses coming from the north, numbering thousands. The Tang soldiers quickly hidden. After a while, I saw a team of elite soldiers, guarding a batch of grain and grass, and sitting on a female general on the front warhorse, wearing a white robe and carrying a long whip, it was Bai Yu'e who was guarding Chizhou.

Wu Fengying jumped out and stopped in front of Bai Yu'e's horse and shouted, "Are you Yu'e's sister?" ”

Bai Yu'e took a closer look in the moonlight, it was Wu Fengying, and said, "It's me." ”

Wu Fengying asked: "Isn't my sister guarding Chizhou, how did she get here?" ”

Bai Yu'e said: "The emperor learned that our army had conquered Chizhou, and Longyan was happy, and sent the Duke of Luguo to Hou Junji to carry 10,000 stones of grain and grass to guard Chizhou. General Hou said that the front line needs food and grass, and asked me to come and send it quickly. (To be continued)
