After sending the Jurchen cavalry to attack Zhou Ben, Liu Yan immediately sent the rest of the soldiers and horses, but he killed a group of soldiers even more miserably, only hating his father and mother for not giving him two more legs, and only hating that the third leg under his crotch could not be used as a crutch.

After Liu Youyou took a little rest from the Jurchen cavalry that had just come down from the battlefield, he sent it out. The army marched to Leaky Ze, hoping to stop Leaky Ze before Yang Xingmi passed. may not be able to capture or kill Yang Xingmi alive, but Liu Cheng doesn't care very much about whether he can catch Yang Xingmi's big fish. After all, catching Yang Xingmi depends on luck, and if you care too much, you will lose the opportunity to expand the results.

More importantly, what Liu Jun needs is a big victory and keep the leak, not Yang Xingmi himself. Yang Xingmi passed through the more than 20,000 soldiers and horses of Leaky Ze this time, and there will definitely be no more than 100 people who follow Yang Xingmi back. As for the future when Yang Xingmi came with a large army to collect the routs who fled into the barren mountains and mountains, it is unknown how much he can get. However, Liu Jun is sure that no matter how many people are left in Yang Xingmi's army, they will not make a difference in a short period of time.

At the same time, this time it can be called a great victory of total annihilation, which will also greatly boost the morale of Yanhai and Pinglu. You must know that although a great victory of total annihilation is the elimination of thousands of more people, its significance is so great that it is very rare. Since the Middle Tang Dynasty, the feudal towns have faced each other with swords for more than 100 years, but there have been only dozens of victories with more than 1,000 people, and more than 10,000 people are even rarer. The largest scale is nothing more than Zhu Wen's great victory in Xingzhou against Li Ke during the Qianning period, killing Li Keyong's 80,000 troops to death and surrendering.

But don't forget the power comparison between Li Keyong and Zhu Wen at the beginning, Zhu Wen is a few points stronger than Li Keyong, but at this moment, the strength comparison between Liu Junhe and Yang Xingmi is like a thin little tiger who has lost the protection of his strong father and a strong big tiger. The significance is not as simple as a big victory.

…… Surabaya County Leaky ......

Half an hour has passed since the fire in Surabaya County. The shouting and killing in the direction of Surabaya County can also be faintly heard at this moment, and the red glow that penetrates half the sky is even more disturbing. Half an hour passed, and Yan Bao did not attack, he didn't know how many soldiers and horses Yang Xingmi could gather. If there are fewer soldiers and horses, it is better to say, if there are more soldiers and horses, he will launch a surprise attack at this moment, but he will startle the snake. Let Yang Xingmi's soldiers stationed here flank back and forth, but the gains outweigh the losses.

But Yang Xingmi has fewer soldiers and horses, and Yang Xingmi can hide in other places. Thirteen miles south of Surabaya County is Niqiu Mountain. Mount Nichu is not steep, but it is dense with jungle and complex terrain. Find a cave that connects to an underground river and hide for two or three months. It made Yan Bao very entangled.

Of course, Yan Bao was even more angry that the brigade commander did not immediately send someone to support after discovering the fire in Surabaya County, and did not even send someone to investigate, but just sent a small soldier to pass the message to the back. Yan Bao sent the soldiers to capture them alive, but found that it was because the soldier was a deserter, not a messenger.

At this time, Yan Bao's face suddenly changed slightly. Yan Bao looked at the beacon tower opposite, gritted his teeth, and now Yan Bao understood that he was probably in a trick! The other party is stabilizing himself, you must know why he didn't light the beacon fire after the fire broke out in Surabaya County? I just hope to delay time and hold Yang Xingmi's back road!

Yan Bao couldn't help but pat his head with remorse and said, "Paralyzed! Yan Bao! Yan Bao! You're so smart, you're foolish! ”

Yan Bao didn't care about anything at the moment, and hurriedly stood up, and suddenly his heart moved, as if he had thought of some clever plan. Yan Bao secretly said in his heart: Paralyzed! You kid deceived Lao Tzu, if you don't pay it back! Isn't it too sorry for yourself! Yan Bao found his henchmen and gave him instructions. Twenty people were found and sneakily bypassed the beacon tower built by the Huainan Army from a distance. Slowly coming to the barren grass to the south, Yan Bao whispered an order to the twenty soldiers. Then he took off the trumpet from his waist, and with a puff of breath, he blew the trumpet. "Woo! Woo! Woo! ”

The mournful sound of the horn suddenly sounded in the silent night sky, and in the night sky it seemed like the whimper of a ghost, and the slightly more timid people couldn't help but feel creepy.

The twenty soldiers, almost blowing the horn on Yan Bao's front foot, had already taken out the fire sickle from their bosom with their hind feet, and lit the torches, two torches per person, and stuck the torches on the few high slopes and trees in the wasteland. Suddenly, forty or fifty torches appeared on the wasteland. Looking at the past from the beacon tower, because it is too far away, I only feel that the figure in the fire is longing, in fact, this is just a psychological factor after hearing the sound of the horn! But in the dark, where is it possible to see clearly.

"Quick! Hold the south, what about the crossbowmen? Fast! Come here and kill the enemy. ”

"Beacon! Hurry up! ”

"Where's the torch! Throw the torches out, you say we're all night owls, and we can see the enemy in the dark! Quick, throw the torch out, you can't see how to shoot the enemy! ”

The beacon tower fell into a busy sound in an instant, and although the soldiers of the Huainan Army who were already ready to go, they were busy, but they were not chaotic. Defenses were soon laid out to the south. The crossbowman was even more nervous in the cold night, so that beads of sweat oozed from his forehead. But he didn't dare to wipe the beads of sweat from his forehead, lest he miss a good opportunity to attack.

The number of shots of crossbowmen is very compact, and one less round of arrows can cause dozens or even hundreds of casualties on their own side. So even though the beads of sweat on the forehead were very uncomfortable, there was no crossbowman to wipe them away.

But after half a sound, Xu Zhihe, who was the brigade commander at the time, couldn't help but wonder in his heart, why hasn't the enemy attacked yet? It would be strange to give them time to calmly set up their defenses. Xu Zhihe is the founding emperor of the Southern Tang Dynasty, and he is naturally not an ordinary person. Suddenly, his heart moved, and Xu Zhihe thought of something! Turn your head to look north.

I saw that it was dark and dreary in the back, but at this moment I could vaguely see the figure longing. Xu Zhihe knew that he had fallen for the plan! couldn't help but cry out in his heart, and hurriedly shouted: "Hurry! Come! An Yanneng, you lead your subordinates to come with me! ”

After speaking, he ignored An Yanneng's puzzled face, but Xu Zhihe hadn't gone far yet, only to hear a shout of killing. Immediately, there was a heavy sound of the wooden fence falling to the ground at the north gate.

I don't know how many soldiers and horses are coming in, but I feel that countless soldiers are pouring in. When I looked up, I saw sharp spears like dense wheat stalks on autumn fields, towering behind the enemy. The sharp Tang knife reflected a fiery red dazzling light under the light of the campfire in the camp.

"Spearmen press up! Be sure to defend the king's back road! Although Xu Zhihe was surprised, he did not panic, snatched a spear from the soldiers on the side, gritted his teeth, and rushed in first. At present, there are only a dozen soldiers in the north, and if they don't take the lead, where can they hold the beacon tower.

Although the enemy came quickly and densely, I don't know how many people there were, but Xu Zhihe took the lead so much, and the morale of his subordinates was also greatly boosted. More than a dozen soldiers of the Huainan Army also rushed out after him.

But how could Yan Bao not be prepared for this matter! What he hit was that the other party was caught off guard. The ten soldiers who took the lead in were all wearing the full-body plate armor that Liu Yan had specially dialed, and they were holding a sharp Mo knife in their hands.

"Hack!" A loud shout rang out, and the Modao hoplites ignored the spears. The whole body plate armor is made of steel plates, let alone a gun, and it can't be split with a knife. At the joints, there is leather inside, as long as you protect it carefully, even if you are stabbed, it will not be pierced too deeply.

"Smack!" A slightly messy sound sounded, and only one of the more than ten spears that stabbed over was left, and many Modao hoplites directly split two spears with one sword, cutting them off in four directions!

"Enter!" With a hint of panting in the deep voice of the ten generals, the Modao hoplites strode forward without hesitation, falling heavily to the ground, and the earth involuntarily trembled slightly.

Xu Zhihe's face has not changed slightly, but his face has changed greatly! In normal times, he could have pikemen line up and use dense spears against the enemy, supplemented by crossbowmen to cover the kill. But now that he was being attacked by the other party, he was caught off guard, not to mention the formation, and the soldiers who were rooted in Xu Zhihe's side were only about forty people.

A touch of ruthlessness flashed in Xu Zhihe's eyes, and he roared loudly: "Kill!" Kill the enemy at the first level, and the reward will be ten times! ”

As the so-called heavy reward must have a brave man, a regular soldier, if there is no additional income, every month is only nine buckets of food, four hundred money. In Huainan, a bucket of rice costs eight yuan, and a stone of rice costs eighty yuan, so how much is ten yuan? It is equivalent to buying two acres of good paddy fields!

What is the purpose of being a soldier? It's not for promotion and getting rich! There is less hope for promotion, but there is a lot more wealth in comparison. The south produces two crops a year, plus it is still a paddy field, and it produces three stones of grain a year, which is not better than the north, and the two fields are only one stone and two stones of grain. If you kill five heads, you can be a small rich peasant in Huainan.

Although many soldiers knew that the Yan Navy was not weak in combat effectiveness this sneak attack, they still gritted their teeth and went up. Under the ordinary circumstances of Huainan, killing the enemy at the first level is only two pieces of money, and the cavalry is three times. When is there such a good opportunity!

But no one in the Huainan army, which was in a fierce battle, found Xu Zhihe, and actually abandoned his army and sneaked into a tent. Xu Zhihe went to the tent, took a saber in another part of the tent, cut a hole, and rushed out to the west where there were not many shouts of killing. Xu Zhihe didn't mean to die here, he had long been frightened by the number of enemies, and he didn't know how many soldiers and horses there were, so Xu Zhihe chose to leave the soldiers and horses under his command and escape.

However, Xu Zhihe is Xu Zhihe in the end, he did not take the lead in escaping stupidly, first to inspire the courage of the soldiers, and then to sneak away. First, it can delay time, and second, it can make the other party bite the beacon so much, and it has to break a few big teeth. After Yang Xingmi asked him, he had an excuse to cover up.

However, what Xu Zhihe didn't know was that Yang Xingmi had already arrived outside the beacon tower at this moment, and he only said that even if Yang Xingmi returned to Huainan, he was probably alone, where did he think that Yang Xingmi had gathered a thousand soldiers and horses with the help of Li Shenfu at this moment. And more than eighty percent of the soldiers are composed of the two strong brigades of Heiyundu and Huangtou Army.

Seeing that the beacon tower was in a fierce melee, Li Shenfu immediately asked: "King, now that you have captured the beacon, you can hold on to this place on the one hand and wait for help, and on the other hand, you can collect the remnants of the defeated army!" Troops should be sent to the rescue as soon as possible! ”

The reason why Li Shenfu said this was not because he was afraid that Yang Xingmi would not see this, but because he was afraid that Yang Xingmi would be killed by the Yan Navy and fled to Yizhou wholeheartedly.

When Yang Xingmi heard this, he hesitated for a moment, then nodded decisively: "Okay!" This god of war blessed you led the soldiers and horses to attack from the north, and I led the soldiers and horses to enter through the east gate! ”

"The last general obeys!" When Li Shenfu heard this, a trace of hatred flashed in his eyes. After this battle, the yellow-headed army he formed single-handedly is afraid that it will be able to gather up to 1,000 people, and it will already be the ancestral tomb with green smoke. How to make Li Shenfu not resentful, and now that he has the opportunity to take revenge, he really has to have twelve points of strength.

The same is true of the Huainan Army soldiers who protected Yang Xingmi, who were so defeated that the soldier had no relatives or friends and died in the hands of the Yan Navy. In the past, it was because it couldn't be defeated, but now the soldiers and horses who are raiding from the outside can be sure that there will not be many people. can have a chance to take revenge, and the Huainan Army will naturally not mind bullying the soft and afraid of the hard!

Yang Xingmi and Li Shenfu attacked in two ways, but they beat Yan Bao bitterly, and they had just returned here to take over the command. was about to be high-spirited, and clicked the timid and obscene Huainan military commander. If you don't want to be hit hard by Yang Xingmi, it's as painful as if you don't act when you're with a woman. In addition, it was black, and I didn't know how many soldiers and horses Yang Xingmi had brought at this time, which was even more confusing. But dark skies also have the benefit of darkness. Because of the black relationship, Yang Xingmi's attack was not fast enough, so after Yan Bao decisively ordered the soldiers to defend, Yan Haijun was able to use the tents and antlers of the beacon tower to complete the defense. Although Yang Xingmi has the upper hand, if he wants to swallow Yan Bao's subordinates who have already completed the deployment in a short period of time, it is not easier than defeating Liu Cheng at this moment and making a big turnaround......

Besides, Yang Xingmi was aggrieved tonight, and finally became strong, it was really that chicken jelly! I also heard that Xu Wen's son, Xu Wen, who called himself one of the thirty-six heroes when he rebelled against him, took the lead in the attack, although he made a heavy promise, which made Yang Xingmi a little painful, but it was not unacceptable.

Yang Xingmi asked people to find Xu Zhihe, but they couldn't find it, Yang Xingmi said that Xu Zhihe had died heroically, and he was ready to confirm it after the war, and then let people reward Xu Zhihe.

Zhou Ben, who didn't want to join Yang Xingmi after being injured, caught a deserter in the west, and Yang Xingmi was naturally furious. found someone, but was recognized by others, it was Xu Zhihe who he thought had died heroically for Huainan. Yang Xingmi was even more furious, he had a feeling that he had been deceived.

Yang Xingmi was furious and said, "Pull it down, cut it in half!" ”

But that's when the unexpected happened......
