Jia Binjiu came back again to report: "Zhang Xianzhong's army is moving rapidly in the direction of Dongshuanghe Town, and the vanguard cavalry is estimated to be able to arrive at night!" ”

Yu Xiang quickly convened a military meeting, which was attended by Red Lady, Qi Dayong, Zhang Erhu, Jia Binjiu, Zhuge Shanzhen, Shengying, Zhao Siyaozi, A Niu and others. Let's discuss the current situation together.

At this time, Wu Yaozu came in with a roll of paper, opened it and saw that it was a newly drawn map, and the terrain of the mountains and rivers near Dongshuanghe Town was clearly drawn.

Yu Xiang deduced from his own historical knowledge and the current situation: "Zhang Xianzhong was in Shaanxi, surrounded and suppressed by Xiong Wencan's government army, and was defeated, and they fled all the way to Henan, where they urgently needed food supplies. They passed through Nanyang and Tongbai, and are currently moving in the direction of Dongshuanghe Town, and according to the intelligence, they may have targeted the grain storage of Xincun, which is their final target. ”

Zhang Erhu asked, "In that case, why don't we stick to the new village?" Or simply, wouldn't it be better to retreat to Mujiazhai? ”

"Xincun and Mujiazhai are both projectile lands, even if they can be kept, Xinyi Village, Xiner Village, surrounding villages, so many sweet potato fields, Dongshuanghe Town will all play, so many people, what will they eat in the coming year? All the hard work was in vain. Therefore, it is necessary to choose a decisive battle site, which is not only conducive to the battle, but also not to let the flames of war burn to Dongshuanghe Town, so as to minimize the losses. After Yu Xiang finished speaking, he called everyone to look at the map.

Yu Xiang pointed to the east side of Dongshuanghe Town and said: "The east side is Xinyang Mansion, which is heavily guarded by the imperial court, if Zhang Xianzhong attacks from the east, they will be attacked by the enemy, so it is unwise to attack from the east." To the west and south, there are cliffs and steep mountains, which are not suitable for large troops to pass through, and the grain and grass cannot be transported, and the troops lose their supplies and retreat without a fight. Therefore, the only way to enter the new village is the Thirteen Mile Bridge in the north, and the Loess Gang is the place they must pass! ”

Yu Xiang's finger pointed heavily at the loess hill, "This loess hill is not high, in the northwest, there is a small hill, and there are many woods on the mountain, which is not suitable for a large army to be stationed. To the north, is a wide flat land, extending to the side of the Shihe River, is an ideal garrison camping site, it is estimated that Zhang Xianzhong will choose this camp, there is a river behind it can be used as a barrier and water supply, we are here to block, Zhang Xianzhong is blocked outside the town of Dongshuanghe! ”

"Since then, I can't take care of the other towns." Ah Niu said worriedly.

"Yes, the rest of the towns can't take care of it, we have too few people, and those who don't want to move out can only resign to fate!"

Yu Xiang paused and continued: "

Now, I assign the task:

Senior Brother Shengying led the newly recruited young men to defend the new village, and under no circumstances could they leave with the troops, beware of Zhang Xianzhong sending troops to raid and end our nest.

Senior Brother Li Gang organized a logistics supply team to transport, supply, and escort wounded soldiers;

Ah Niu organized an engineering team, responsible for digging trenches in front, deploying on the battlefield, and working closely with Li Gang to take care of each other;

Senior Brother Zhuge Shanzhen's spy battalion is the most elite force in our new village, fighting in the front, first going to occupy Huangtougang, and after the battle, following Qi Dayong, waiting for call.

Zhang Erhu organized a reserve team to defend the Thirteen-Mile Bridge as the second line of defense. When necessary, support front-line operations.

The matchmaker battlefield is in general coordination and coordinates the unified operation of various departments.

Zhao Si was responsible for guarding Mujiazhai and leading some women to guard the pocket valley and pick up the wounded who might be delivered.

Jia Binjiu was responsible for the collection of battlefield situations.

Qi Dayong was the commander-in-chief of the battle, and he was fully responsible for the command of the battlefield, and the situation on the battlefield was changing rapidly, so he had to command flexibly and flexibly. ”

After Yu Xiang finished speaking, he looked at everyone, and finally asked, "Do you have anything to add?" ”

Everyone shook their heads and said no.

"Okay, time is running out. Senior Brother Zhuge led the special battalion to the Loess Gang first, so as not to let the enemy take the lead. The safety of Dongshuanghe Town and Xincun is entrusted to you. Act now! ”

Everyone received instructions and rushed to their respective posts.

Zhuge Shanzhen led more than 30 people, including Liu Xiangyong, Liu Xiangxin, and Liu Xiangyi, to rush to the loess gang on fast horses, obliquely carrying steel guns, and galloping.

As soon as I arrived at the top of the Loess Gang Mountain, I saw more than 100 riders rushing from the bottom of the mountain in the north, coming towards the top of the mountain.

Zhuge Shan cherished his heart and said: It's so dangerous, it's a step late, I'm afraid I'll pay a heavy price.

He made a gesture, and more than thirty people immediately dismounted, and found their positions one after another.

There was a path down the hill that winded from the mountainside to the top of the hill, and these people at the bottom of the hill lined up along the path and hurried towards the top of the mountain, and they had not yet realized that the top of the mountain had been occupied.

Soon, the first few horses came into range.

Liu Xiangyong aimed at the person who was running in front, pulled the trigger, and a gunshot rang out, the man was shot, fell off the horse, and the war horse neighed, and continued to run wildly forward.

Several more shots rang out, and the men on the horses that followed them were shot and fell from their horses. The horse team behind was very frightened, grabbed the reins, and looked carefully towards the top of the post, looking hesitant.

Liu Xiangyong hid behind a large rock, quickly cleared his chamber with wire, and loaded it with gunpowder.

After observing for a while, a man who looked like a leader at the foot of the mountain whistled, and these people continued to raise their whips, and ran more quickly towards the top of the mountain, and more than a dozen horses entered the shooting circle, and a row of guns was heard, and these dozen people fell from their horses at the same time, and several of them still had their legs in their legs, and the horses dragged their corpses, neighing and running forward.

One after another, the determination of the people behind to seize Huangtougang did not waver in the slightest, the speed of the horses did not stop at all, they ran up the mountain road, another row of gunshots rang out, and several people were knocked down from their horses, but there were already horses that broke through the first layer of firepower.

Zhuge Shanzhen, Liu Xiangxin, and Liu Xiangyi are holding spears, lined up, standing in the middle of the road, and several other people are holding sabers, standing behind Zhuge Shanzhen.

The thief soldier who ran in the front was holding a big knife and roaring towards Zhuge Shanzhen, Zhuge Shanzhen did not dodge or dodge, his eyes were fixed on each other, seeing that he was getting closer and closer, and as soon as he shot out, the spear was impartially stabbed in the chest of the thief, and the thief had a huge forward inertia, and his body was pierced and flew up all of a sudden, and blood splashed in the air.

Liu Xiangxin and Liu Xiangyi also fought with the thieves, only to see them spear one by one, and the opponent had no power to fight back, and died immediately, it was not their opponent at all.

The enemy behind is constantly under fire. The guns fell down the horses, and they could not rush to the top of the mountain at all, and they could not give full play to their advantage of being beaten in large groups, and in just one round, the enemy left more than 20 corpses and lost more than 20 horses. But they haven't even figured out the strength and details of their opponents.

The leader of the enemy at the foot of the mountain was very frightened, this cavalry, but the elite of Zhang Xianzhong's elite, often played the role of a pioneer, fought countless victories, and won Zhang Xianzhong's weapon, but he didn't expect that he would encounter a powerful opponent as soon as he came, and the loss was so great that the opponent was unscathed.

However, this loess hill is the only way to go to Dongshuanghe Town, and capturing this small hill is of great significance to the whole army, and they adjusted their strategy, some of them rode along the mountain road to continue to go up, and the other part of them secretly climbed up from the foot of the mountain, trying to divide the troops into two roads and hit the opponent by surprise.

This wishful thinking was wrong, and the people who abandoned their horses and climbed up the mountainside became live targets for gun training, and when they reached the firing range, they saw only one shot at a time, and the guns rang out, and a dozen people who tried to climb up with their bare hands were immediately killed.

At this time, there were more than 20 horsemen who broke through the firepower network, Zhuge Shanzhen's spy battalion, all of them were superb in martial arts, Zhuge Shanzhen only led eight cavalry to intercept in the middle of the road, and fought against the enemy three times his own, without fear.

I saw the spear in Zhuge Shanzhen's hand, flying up and down, everywhere I went, blood flew sideways, and the enemies were picked off the horse one after another.

Liu Xiangxin and Liu Xiangyi are not ambiguous, they are like gods, and within ten rounds, the opponent will inevitably be killed.

The remaining five people, the martial arts are slightly worse, but the pure steel saber of Xincun, against the enemy's broadsword, has an absolute advantage, the two knives collide, the enemy's broadsword is like cutting mud, cut off by the saber, only one round, the enemy has no weapon in his hand, where is the opponent, either the head is cut off, or the chest is stabbed with a bloody hole, the second round down, and more than 40 enemies are eliminated.

The leader of the enemy at the bottom of the mountain was extremely frightened, most of their men and horses were gone, and the rest of them were killed in vain if they went up.

The enemy leader had never encountered such a powerful opponent, and they had no choice but to turn their horses' heads and gallop towards the circuit.

Zhuge Shanzhen picked two lightly injured ones, bandaged them briefly, held them on their horses, and sent one of them back to Xincun.

Not long after, Ah Niu came up with many people, they dug trenches according to Yu Xiang's requirements, used as bunkers for shooting, to stop the onslaught of the enemy's cavalry, and went up the mountainside, dug three trenches, and established three lines of defense.

Zhuge Shanzhen took the special battalion to strengthen the patrol and defense.

Yu Xiang and the Red Lady kowtowed to the martial saint Ai Lianchi to say goodbye, Ai Lianchi helped Yu Xiang and the Red Lady and said: "Xiang'er, Red Lady, for the lives of everyone in the new village, go to defend against the enemy, this is the righteousness, support you for the teacher, but you must have the heart of benevolence, seek benevolence by killing, do not forget the original intention, and kill indiscriminately." ”

Yu Xiang replied respectfully, "Disciple, remember Master's teachings!" ”

Out of Juxian Hall, there were soldiers to send good news, Zhuge Mountain rare land of fifty-three people, more than forty-two war horses, escorted back two prisoners, after interrogation, it was Zhang Xianzhong's outpost troops, determined that Zhang Xianzhong's troops were going to enter Dongshuanghe Town from Loess Gang, and Yu Xiang's judgment was consistent.

Yu Xiang was overjoyed and sent an order to go down to inform the whole village of the good news and boost morale. When Xincun heard the news of the victory, everyone rushed to tell each other, and praised Mr. Qian's use of soldiers like gods, and his worship of Yu Xiang reached the extreme.

Yu Xiang and the red lady went back to the room to change clothes. After changing into a military uniform, Yu Xiang came to the outside of Yonghe Hall, and the Red Lady, Chen Siyi and Miss Xu San were all standing outside waiting for him.

Yu Xiang put on a military uniform and looked vigorous and majestic. The red lady looks heroic and sonorous. These two people, standing together, are simply a pair made in heaven, and the earth is set up as a pair.

Yu Xiang also noticed the charming and charming Miss Xu San, but he saw that she was wearing a blue gauze dress, with beads hanging on her head, grease and powder on her face, and a pink and sexy little mouth, which was delicate.

Yu Xiang walked up and said to Miss Xu San: "If I can't come back, remember to go to the south, the farther the better, if possible, across the ocean, to England or Europa, remember?" ”

Miss Xu San was picked at the corner of her mouth, and said stubbornly: "You still owe me money!" If you won't come, I'll go to the Netherworld to find you, and you'll go to the Ghost Gate, and I'll go to you to chase you. Debt! If you want to dump me, no way! ”

Although she said it lightly, in fact, her intentions, Yu Xiang didn't know, he was deeply moved, women are pleasing to themselves, Miss Xu San's outfit today is for him.

"I won't be able to die for a while, such a good girl, how can I be willing to cheapen others, just let you go to the south and wait for me to pick you up." Yu Xiang suppressed the sadness in his heart and chatted in a tone that they usually teased.

Miss Xu San was much more relaxed when she heard him ridicule like this, she beckoned to show Yu Xiang to come over, and whispered.

Yu Xiang didn't know what to do, so he leaned his head over, and Miss Xu San suddenly kissed him deeply on the face, leaving a bright red rouge mouth print.

Miss Xu San let go of him and giggled.

Yu Xiang was very sweet in his heart, but he still didn't forget the debt, and said very seriously: "This kiss is worth one hundred taels of silver, subtract one hundred taels from the debt, don't cheat!" ”

Miss Xu San smiled even more happily and said, "This price is fair, I'll buy a few." As she spoke, she was going to come up again to kiss Yu Xiang.

Yu Xiang said seriously: "So many people, all watching, the big war is coming, be serious!" ”

Miss Xu San heard him say this, so she didn't make trouble.

The red lady hurriedly took out a handkerchief and wiped off the rouge lip marks on Yu Xiang's face. Yu Xiang glanced at him and said, "When is it, it's not serious." ”

Chen Siyi looked at Yu Xiang with tears in her eyes, Yu Xiang said to her: "Go back to Fucheng, if Xincun is defeated by the enemy, remember to go to the south, the farther the better, remember!" ”

Chen Siyi cried: "Brother Yu, I'm not going anywhere, I'll go wherever you go!" ”

Yu Xiang smiled, and didn't know what to say, so he said to the doorman Captain Liu: "Liu Dongming, I'll leave it to you to escort Miss Chen, and you must send her to Fucheng safely." ”

Captain Liu said uprightly: "Mr. Qian, rest assured, I promise to complete the task." After speaking, with a few other people, he forcibly put Chen Siyi in the carriage and galloped towards the city.

Chen Siyi opened the curtains, her eyes were hazy with tears, and she looked at Yu Xiang reluctantly.

Yu Xiang pretended to wave at her very easily, but her tearful face was deeply imprinted in her mind.
