At the head of Xiang'an City, looking at the dejected Lujiang soldiers outside the city, Huang Yi's face turned pale.

The bleak scene in front of you, even if you don't have to ask, the result is already clear at a glance.

Lu Mian is defeated!

While Huang Yi was frightened in his heart, he was also secretly lucky.

As a prison soldier, Huang Yi was supposed to go out with the army, but he asked to stay in the name of guarding Xiang'an, in the final analysis, it was nothing more than fear of death, and Lu Mian didn't want to keep this guy in the way, so when Huang Yi proposed, Lu Mian just glanced at him with disdain, and agreed to his request.

Huang Yi knew that Liu Xun did not trust Lu Mian, otherwise he would not let himself, a person who had deep contradictions with Lu Mian, serve as the supervisor, which was very operational, so Huang Yi did not refuse Liu Xun's appointment.

Let Lu Mian fight, win and give half of the credit, and if he loses, he will put the responsibility on Lu Mian, this deal, no matter from which point of view, is a sure win.

It's just that Huang Yi didn't expect that Lu Mian would be defeated so quickly, and it was a big rout where the whole army was annihilated, and he even put his own life into it.

Now, Huang Yi's heart is entangled to death.

Should I run back to Anhui City quickly, or should I continue to stay in Xiang'an to resist Jinfan?

If the former is chosen, in the case of Lu Mian, the guy he expected to be the scapegoat for defeat, he is afraid that the angry Liu Xun will vent all his anger on himself, thinking of this, Huang Yi couldn't help but shudder.

But if you choose the latter...... Tsk, Jin Fan is so brutal, even Lu Mian was beaten into a cup by the other party, not to mention himself who doesn't know anything about military affairs? Thinking that Jin Fan might send troops to attack Xiang'an in the next two days, Huang Yi's lower abdomen would be filled with bursts of irrepressible urine.

The number of soldiers who fled back to Xiang'an was about 3,000, plus the 2,000 soldiers who were already stationed in Xiang'an City, and there were still 5,000 soldiers and horses available in the city.

Logically speaking, 5,000 soldiers and horses are enough to withstand the onslaught of Jinfan's army for several days, Huang Yi should take this time to hurry up to Wancheng for help, as long as he can hold on until Liu Xun's reinforcements arrive, then all the crises will be solved.

But Huang Yi is not stupid, now there are only 20,000 soldiers and horses in Wancheng, will Liu Xun really send reinforcements after getting the news? And even Lu Mian's 30,000 troops were defeated by Jinfan at once, even if Liu Xun brought all the 20,000 soldiers and horses in Anhui City, when the time came, would he really be able to win Jinfan? Huang Yi was skeptical.

It seems that the left and right sides seem to be dead ends, and perhaps for themselves, the best way out now is only ......

――――――――――――

Jinfan camp, Wang Chong sat in the tent with a solemn expression, today's big victory, but he did not feel the slightest joy, because Jinfan's loss has seriously exceeded his expectations.

In this battle, Jinfan's casualties were as high as 4,000, which was the heaviest loss in their history, even if they faced the encirclement and suppression of 20,000 Jiangdong troops at Poyang Lake, they also lost more than 2,000 people.

If Wang Chong could barely accept the number of four thousand, then more than half of the casualties of the Iron Guard Battalion almost made his heart bleed.

The Iron Guard Battalion is undoubtedly the most elite unit in Jinfan at present, although it has been decided to expand, but the three hundred standing soldiers who participated in the war today are definitely the backbone of this Iron Guard Battalion, but who wants to sacrifice so much in a battle, how can Wang Chong accept it?

In addition to the Iron Guard Battalion, the casualties of the cavalry battalion were also not small, as many as more than 400 horsemen, and the commander Wang Shuang also suffered multiple arrow wounds in his body, almost heroically surrendered, which really scared Wang Chong out of a cold sweat.

But fortunately, the most difficult battle has finally passed, and the crisis in Chaohu has basically been resolved, unless Sun Ce breaks through the mouth of the wet beard at any cost, but this possibility is obviously not large.

As for Liu Xun, after the rout of this battle, he is completely unconcerned.

In this battle, Jinfan killed more than 12,000 enemies and captured 8,000 enemies.

At that time, in the face of the morale of the Jinfan army, the Lujiang army was just barely relying on the number of people to support, and Lu Mian's death became the fuse of their final collapse, and they were washed away by the Jinfan army almost instantly.

More than 12,000 heads, a total of more than 15,000 points of experience were given to Wang Chong, plus Lu Mian's head worth 1,000 experience and 800 points of experience rewarded for the successful use of the thief and capture king skills, Wang Chong's final experience value was as high as 17,544 points, which made Wang Chong's level complete the triple jump in one go, Ah no, it was a quadruple jump.

The level was raised to 24, and Wang Chong had two opportunities to open the skill at once.

The first choice list is 1: Wai Wei to save Zhao, 2: Make something out of nothing, 3: Capture the old man, 4: Close the door and catch the thief, 5: Steal the beam and change the pillar, 6: Beauty trick.

This time, Wang Chong didn't think about it for too long and chose to save Zhao, except for the skill of closing the door and catching thieves that made him struggle a little, the other skills were inferior to Wei Wei to save Zhao in terms of practicality and extensiveness.

chose to save Zhao from Wei Wei, and then jumped out of the second choice list 1: Kill with a knife, 2: Take the sheep with your hand, 3: Borrow the corpse to return the soul, 4: Fake Dao to cut down the enemy, 5: Go to the house to draw ladders, 6: Empty city plan

These six options made Wang Chong entangled for a while, and the first thing that was excluded was only the three skills of taking the sheep, borrowing the corpse to return the soul and the false way to kill the enemy, because there was no need for the time being, as for the remaining three, Wang Chong hesitated and took the lead in abandoning the borrowing knife to kill, in fact, he didn't have any knife to borrow now.

In the end, between the upper house and the empty city plan, Wang Chong chose the former.

The empty city plan, when the enemy army is attacking, can confuse the opponent in the virtual and real, so that they dare not act rashly; In the previous option, Wang Chong gave up closing the door to catch the thief and chose to encircle Wei to save Zhao, so he chose to go up to the house at the moment, and it also has the meaning of making up for some regrets.

Name: Wang Chong (word Shaolin)

Skill Points: 3

So far, out of thirty-six strategies, Wang Chong has opened nine, that is, a quarter, but next, the opening of skills will become more and more difficult, because with the increase of the level, the required experience points will continue to increase, don't look at Wang Chong has just risen to the fourth level in one go, but a big battle like today is definitely unavoidable.

"Shaolin!"

"Lord!"

At this time, the curtain was lifted, and Gan Ning and Liu Ye walked in one after the other.

Wang Chong turned off the system and said with a smile: "Brother and Ziyang came just in time, although my Jinfan defeated the Lujiang army today, but this next plan, I still need to discuss it carefully." ”
