Li Xu's position was less than a zhang away from Wang Bodang, and he only needed to take half a step forward with the war horse under his crotch, and he could capture the enemy alive. But this half step, Black Wind refused to step forward no matter what. It was quite psychic and found that the attackers on the opposite side were outnumbered, and they would never lead their master into danger until they were absolutely unnecessary.

"Sigh-slip-slip" Teller let out an angry roar, kicked his front hooves, and braked his body stiffly. "Woohoo!" Hundreds of war horses on the opposite side neighed and stopped, their hooves slashing, as if facing a bloodthirsty beast.

"Woo-woo-woo-woo!" The sound of the horn came through the thunder, and the sound was slow, the sound was broken, and the sound was like a knife.

"What a horse!" The person who came was by no means mediocre, and after a moment of stunned effort, he had already found that there were not many guards around Li Xu, so he smiled, and the expression on his face was instantly relaxed, "Our two families will stop the army, and Zhai will return the head to you, what does General Li think?" ”

"Why don't you try to kill us and reverse the endgame?" In an instant, the expression on Li Xu's face also returned to normal, shook his head slightly, and asked rhetorically. It seems that he didn't see the Lin Lifeng behind Zhai Rang at all.

Inferred from the age of the person who came and the tone of his speech, Li Xu expected that this person must be Zhai Rang, the former leader of the Wagang Army. Otherwise, his words and deeds will not be full of charlatanism. Forced by the situation, he had to consider the other party's request. But the more times like this happen, the more you can't let the other party see your embarrassment.

"Let's discuss with you because you are a hero, don't know what to do!" Zhai Rang really had someone around him who couldn't hold his breath, and before Li Xu's words fell, he jumped out and was eager to try.

"If you want to fight, you will fight, why be so wordy!" Li Xu sneered and gently raised the black knife in his hand.

At this moment, the battle situation is nearing the end, and the Wagang army is defeated. Therefore, the more than 1,000 cavalry led by Li Xu had already dispersed to pursue and kill the remnants of the enemy, and the number of people left by his side was less than 100. However, the enemy generals on the opposite side brought a full 500 cavalry, and there were constantly war horses rushing out from behind the rain to increase the advantage of their side.

A large number of people may not be imposing, and it is not the first time that the Boling cavalry has attacked more with less! In the face of superior enemy forces, Zhou Daniu and the others did not have the slightest fear on their faces. However, Zhai Rang's followers around him couldn't frighten each other when they saw it, and their suddenly inflated arrogance slowly weakened.

The two sides confronted each other from afar, ignoring the storm and everything else on the battlefield. Behind the rain curtain, there were constantly routs running with their heads in their hands, but neither side said anything to stop them. And those routs were also happy to be ignored, although many people saw Zhai Rang's banner, they just shook their heads and ran further.

It's just a few breaths, but it's as long as thousands of years have passed for each other. Finally, Zhai Rang reiterated with a wry smile: "General Li has already won this battle, so why rush to kill them all?" In the package is the head of the old general Zhang Xutuo, and I have ordered someone to decorate it with good nanmu. How about the general, please accept it, and let the brothers live? ”

"I let them go this time, how do I know there won't be another time? Could it be that Zhai Da Boss can promise Li that after they go back, they will abandon evil and follow good, and will not carry a knife to loot again? Li Xu quietly put the heart that had been in his throat back into his stomach, and continued to quietly deal with the other party.

During the time when he was confronting Zhai Rang, the horn behind him had sounded three times, one louder than the other, and each time more and more open. That was the contact signal he had agreed with his henchmen before he led the army into battle. Unless there is a particularly urgent accident, it will not be blown easily.

"Haha, General Li is right. Zhai can't guarantee anything? "It is worthy of being the master of Wagang, and when the other party is so aggressive, Zhai Rang can still laugh out loud. He pointed at Wang Bodang, who was lying in the mud, and then pointed to the rout who kept running past him, and continued: "What Zhai can only guarantee is that if General Li continues to fight, he will swear to fight the general to the death with the long lance in his hand and the brothers behind him. Delay the general for as long as he can, and cover as many brothers as he can to leave safely. Of course, if he can fight with General Li and end up together, Zhai has not been called a big boss in vain! ”

At the end, his words suddenly froze, his waist straightened instantly, and his body was murderous.

The Wagang cavalry who followed Zhai Rang stopped clamoring and slowly pulled out a three-horse deep horizontal line in front of Li Xu. Pointing forward, he put on a posture of a dead fish and a broken net.

"Da Niu, pick up the general on the ground and send it to Zhai Da's family! By the way, bring back the head of General Zhang, and let's send it to Qi County for burial another day! Li Xu knew that he couldn't squeeze more benefits from the other party, so he had to retreat to the second. Zhai Rang and the others couldn't understand the sound of the horn coming through the rain curtain, but Li Xu's heart was transparent. The person who remains in charge of the Chinese army today is Zhang Jiang, an old man who has been his partner for many years, and this person has always been calm. If it weren't for the discovery of an imminent crisis, he would never have persuaded the coach to end the battle as soon as possible at this juncture.

"Hmm!" Zhou Daniu agreed sullenly, and thrust the battle flag in his hand into the mud. Then he jumped off the horse, picked up Wang Bodang, who had fallen into a coma, from the mud pit, and went straight to Zhai Rang's horse.

The thieves of Wagang officers and soldiers injured Wang Bodang too badly, and the scolding was endless, and the shadow of the long lance was swaying around Zhou Da Niu, but the big cow seemed to be blind and deaf, first threw Wang Bodang on the back of a war horse with an empty saddle, and then took the package containing the head of the old general Zhang with both hands, and strode back to the main formation.

"I can give the order to call in and promise not to chase me again until noon tomorrow. I hope that the master Zhai who came from afar can rest well, and restrain the soldiers, so as not to let the next battle start in advance! After the big cow sat down on horseback, Li Xu hugged his fist to Zhai Rang and said.

"Before noon tomorrow, Zhai will never let a single soldier of the Wagang Army appear within a radius of forty miles!" Zhai Rang knew that Li Xu had seen through the fact that the Wagang reinforcements were exhausted, and simply agreed.

Since the hole cards have been seen clearly, there is no need for him to make any extraneous branches. ordered a small group of cronies to help Wang Bodang evacuate first, and he led the rest of the soldiers to slowly retreat to the southeast while collecting the rout.

Seeing Zhai Rang leave his sight, Li Xu ordered his soldiers to blow the horn. A moment later, the sound of gongs and trumpets echoed in the military formation. The officers and soldiers of the various ministries who were chasing and killing the remnants of the enemy heard the golden sound and stopped one after another. Some people still can't enjoy killing, and complain impatiently, "Why did you withdraw the troops when you were killing and let go of these bastards!" General Li is really kind-hearted! ”

"Poor Kou Mo Chase! The great general naturally has the truth of the great general. If you have the ability, you don't have to listen to the general, you can find someone else to win such a beautiful battle! Immediately, a low-ranking officer raised his throat and yelled at the complainer.

Since the fall of Zhang Xutuo, the officers and armies of all walks of life have rarely won victories over Wagang. This time, he was able to defeat an enemy that he couldn't provoke at all, and everyone was really overjoyed. The reprimanded person was not annoyed, and explained with a smiling face: "Didn't you want to clean up the Wagang thieves earlier!" Let's go home early! ”

"What are you anxious about? With General Li here, how many days can the Wagang thieves jump? Someone picked up the conversation and responded confidently.

Everyone was elated. While cleaning up the battlefield under the organization of the team, there were many discussions, looking forward to the day when Wagang was completely leveled. General Li was undefeated, and both the soldiers of the Boling army and the county soldiers firmly believed in this and had no doubts.

Simple-minded, they can't see through the dark clouds overhead, let alone see behind the dark clouds, an unprecedented storm is brewing.

Li Xu, who hurried back to the Chinese army, walked into the Chinese army's tent without even bothering to wipe the water on his body, and was greeted by several faces distorted by anger.

"Xu Maogong broke through the Tiger Prison defense, and the striker has arrived in Xingze. General Wang Junkuo, who was besieging Xingze, was leading his troops to confront him, and the outcome was unpredictable! Without waiting for Li Xu to ask, Zhang Jiang picked up a battle report stained red by blood, trembled, and sent it to him.

"What?" Although he had made some preparations in advance, this remark still made Li Xu's body shake twice. He stretched out his hand and snatched the battle report, flipped through it and read it several times, wishing that every word had been cut through, before he asked in a calm voice: "How can this be?" How could Xu Maogong pass between the Tiger Prison and Xingyang? What about Wang Bian and Pei Renji, what are the two of them eating? ”

Nearly 100,000 elite officers and soldiers could not stop a Wagang division, and no one dared to believe this result. But this happened just by then, and it happened to happen at the critical juncture of the decisive battle between Li Xu and the main force of Wagang. If Li Mi can calm down and postpone the decisive battle for another day, it will be the Great Sui officers and troops who will be destroyed today.

Thinking of this, Li Xu grabbed the battle report and read it again from beginning to end. It was still a few lines, each word, but it stabbed him in the heart like a knife.

"The scouts we sent reported that Wang Wei had withdrawn to Guancheng the day before yesterday. So when Xu Maogong passed by Xingyang, not a single soldier in the city came out to stop him! As for the Tiger Prison, our brothers are asleep, and there is still no news! Zhang Jiang, whose face was pale, shuddered, and summarized the information he had collected as briefly as possible.

"Cluck!" The lightning that suddenly shone into the military tent shook Li Xu's eyes, and he held the handsome case with his hand, so that he could barely stabilize his figure. Hu Benlang will be familiar with Wang Wei's military books, so he should know what the consequences will be if Xu Maogong advances eastward. And Qin Shubao and Luo Shixin in the Tiger Prison Pass are their good brothers, and it is even more impossible for the two of them to sell the backs of their good brothers to the enemies who killed General Zhang.

Unless, they have a last resort!

"Then Lang Jun thinks that General Qin Shubao and you are of the same heart, or are they of the same benefit?" Behind the sudden explosion of thunder, he heard a voice ask faintly.

But General Zhang's bones are not cold? The armor soaked in the rain became colder and colder, so cold that Xu Zi couldn't help but tremble with his teeth. In order to prevent Xu Maogong from advancing eastward, he had already sent the strongest Wang Bianbu in the official army to help the children of Qi County, thinking that as long as either of the two official armies was willing to fulfill his responsibilities, Xu Maogong would not be able to cross the Tiger Prison defense line. But he never expected that at the critical moment, not only did Wang Wei stand by and watch, but the children of Qi County were as cold-blooded.

These were literally two knives stuck in from behind, each coated with venom. Fortunately, Wang Junkuo, who was leading several army soldiers to besiege Xingze, was vigilant enough to block Xu Maogong's way. But Wang Junkuo's troops are all county soldiers, are they the elite opponents of Wagang? The answer doesn't need Li Xu to think about!

"Jun Kuo said in the letter that he will try his best to delay Xu Maogong for a day!" Sicang joined the army, Guo Fang was familiar with the ability of his old friend, and boldly walked to Li Xu's side and repeated the text of the battle report in a low voice.

"One day is enough!" Xuzi responded in a deep voice. He felt an unforgettable cold, and almost wanted to fall down and never get up again. But there was a flame in his heart, providing him with the heat that could barely continue to support.

He remembered that just now, for the sake of safety, he agreed with Zhai Rang, the leader of the Wagang Army, not to attack each other until noon tomorrow. The Wagang Army, which had just lost the battle, would not have thought that there was a problem behind the officers and soldiers, and they would use this day to seize the time to retreat to the mountains. At present, the officers and troops of all walks of life have just won a battle, and their morale is even higher, and they can just be used to carry out the third-step anti-bandit plan that he had formulated in advance.

It was the last step he wanted to make, but he had to do it in advance.

Putting down the blood-colored military book, Li Xu ordered the drums to gather the generals. Xu Maogong's troops and horses are the strongest fighting force in the entire Henan Liukou, and if he is defeated head-on, the Henan Qunkou will never have a chance to make a comeback. If this battle is doomed to be inescapable, I will face it calmly! He smiled and walked back to the case, the smile on his face becoming brighter and brighter. The experiences of my youth passed by like clouds, as if they had happened yesterday.

"Knock-knock-knock!" The thunderous sound of drums suddenly exploded, spreading the commander's orders to all corners of the battlefield. "The generals gather the generals, and the generals Li gather the generals!" The soldiers rode their horses back and forth in the rain curtain, like a small boat at the bottom of the wind and waves, and their figures appeared and disappeared from time to time.

"I'm seventeen years old, it's your brother!" Yesterday, Xu took out a dagger from his boot with a big smile and gently stuck it in Teller's ass. Then, he flew off his horse like a harrier, leaving the chance of survival to his brother.

"Xu Dayan came from afar, and his soldiers will be tired." Before the commanders of the county soldiers came, Li Xu explained to several core generals of the Boling Army, "Li Mi is newly defeated and his morale is low. Let's wait for work, the odds ......! ”

Before he could finish his sentence, there was a sudden sound of horses' hooves outside the tent. "Of, of, of, of" from far to near, straight to the Chinese army's big tent.

"Who is riding horses in the Chinese army!" Zhang Jiang, who was full of solemnity, turned his head and asked at the door of the military tent. The Boling army was strictly disciplined, and it was strictly forbidden to gallop on horseback in the Chinese army, except for scouts and messengers who delivered urgent military information. Especially during the battle, the sound of horses' hooves appearing in the Chinese army can easily cause the soldiers to misunderstand the military situation.

The anger of the crowd was frozen in their faces by the cold wind that rushed towards them. The door of the tent of the Chinese army was pushed open, and the guards helped a pot-bellied woman in.

"They want to borrow, borrow a sword.......!" Seeing Xuzi, Shi Lan couldn't support it anymore, and only shouted half a sentence and collapsed softly in the arms of the guards, and the mud under his feet was instantly soaked with blood, which was poignant and eye-catching.

"Click!" A bolt of lightning cracked through the sky. Under the gray-black sky, the big tent of the Chinese army was crumbling.
