Yao Xiang and the tens of thousands of troops under his command unknowingly entered the ambush circle preset by Pu Hong, but they did not know about it, and accelerated their speed.

"Father, Yao Xiang is really here, and it is less than three miles according to this." Pu Jian reported softly.

Pu Hong smiled at the corner of his mouth, and said softly: "Yao Xiang, this kid is finally here, speaking of which, we and Yao Xiang are both from Qinzhou, and we are quite related, but now we want to meet each other in arms, and I really can't bear it!" ”

"Father, Yao Xiang has wolf ambitions, and snatching the jade seal of the country shows his ambition, so there is no need to be polite to him." Pu Jian said loudly.

Pu Hong waved his hand and said softly: "We have to spare people and spare people, as long as Yao Xiang hands over the heirloom jade seal, there is no need for us to fight with him senselessly, it is best to get the heirloom jade seal without blood." ”

Pu Jian nodded when he heard this, and said softly: "What my father said is that as long as Yao Xiang is willing to hand over the jade seal of the country, we will let them go." ”

"General, Yao Xiang's army has entered the ambush circle of our army." It didn't take long for a subordinate general to report loudly.

Pu Hong raised his head and glanced forward, and ordered loudly: "The generals will attack with me and surround Yao Xiang's army." With that, he rode his horse and galloped up.

"Kill ......" A shout of killing suddenly came from all directions, and soon, Pu Hong's army of 50,000 killed from all directions, besieging the ill-prepared Yao Xiang army at the core.

Yao Xiang was urging his army to march quickly, when he suddenly found that his army was surrounded by enemy troops, he was taken aback, and immediately stopped his horse.

"What's going on. What the hell is going on? An inexplicable fear rose from the bottom of Yao Xiang's heart, which surprised Yao Xiang.

Yao Chang rode over and said loudly: "Fifth brother, the situation is not good, we are surrounded by enemy troops. ”

Yao Xiang looked up carefully for a long time, and saw that the enemy army had a Pu character written on it, and immediately understood that it was the army under Pu Hong, which made Yao Xiang annoyed.

"Pu Hong, this old guy who is half cut into the ground still makes a move." Yao Xiang said hatefully.

"Fifth brother. This Pu Hong has been standing still. Now, suddenly appearing here, it seems to have been premeditated! Yao Chang said loudly.

Yao Xiang sighed and said loudly: "This old immortal. The purpose of holding the line is to confuse our army. Let our army be unprepared. It's all because I was careless and fell for Pu Hong's tricks. ”

"Fifth brother, the Puhong army has surrounded our legion. They have the upper hand, so what to do now? Yao Chang asked nervously.

Yao Xiang looked around, and he had no idea for a while, and the big beads of sweat on his forehead dripped down his cheeks one by one.

"General, the enemy commander is coming." A subordinate general reminded loudly.

Yao Xiang looked up and saw that it was indeed Pu Hong who personally rode his horse and galloped over, and behind Pu Hong were a group of generals and the most elite soldiers, there were more than 100 people, but at a distance of Yao Xiang's stone's throw away, Pu Hong and his party stopped.

Yao Xiang naturally understood what Pu Hong meant, so Yao Xiang looked at the generals and soldiers behind him and shouted, "You guys, all come with me." After speaking, he ran to Pu Hong's location.

Yao Chang and his generals, as well as his own soldiers, rode horses and followed behind Yao Xiang.

At this moment, Yao Xiang and his soldiers and horses have been surrounded by Pu Hong, which can be said to be in an extremely unfavorable situation, and the result of hard work is bound to be heavy losses.

"General Pu, I haven't seen you for a long time, and the general is still so tough." Yao Xiang politely bowed on his horse.

Pu Hong smiled and said softly: "Nephew Yao Xian is polite, the old man is already old, and he is a person who has been cut into the soil halfway, and he can't compare to the heroic posture of the virtuous nephew." ”

Yao Xiang grinned and said sarcastically: "General Pu can still ride a horse and gallop, and lead the army under his command to surround our legion, how can I talk about old man." ”

Seeing that Yao Xiang deliberately mocked himself, Pu Hong smiled and said softly: "Don't misunderstand Yao Xian's nephew, I and Ling Zun were generals in the same dynasty, and I can't say that I am better than Jin Jian, but at least I am still a good brother, if it weren't for the form, the old man would not have made such a move and did something unfavorable to Yao Xian's nephew!" After speaking, he looked at Pu Jian beside him.

Pu Jian understood and accused loudly: "Yao Xiang, the jade seal of the country is the treasure of the world, and it should belong to the son of heaven of the Great Jin Dynasty. After speaking, he glared at Yao Xiang fiercely.

When Yao Xiang heard this, he immediately understood Pu Hong's intentions, and also confirmed his speculation, in the past few days, although Pu Hong has always been stationary, he knows everything about what happened in the direction of Yongqiu City, and he is afraid that he will not be able to perfunctory the matter of getting the jade seal of the country.

Seeing Yao Xiang's gloomy expression, Pu Hong smiled slightly at the corner of his mouth, and said softly: "Yao Xian's nephew is young and promising, and it is a good thing to be a little ambitious, but you must not touch the jade seal of the country, otherwise, you will get into trouble and fall into a situation from which you will never recover!" After speaking, he looked at Yao Xiang with a rather concerned look.

"Yao Xiang, our army was ordered by the Great Jin Imperial Court to intercept the person who intended to privately swallow the jade seal of the country, if you are interested, quickly hand over the jade seal of the country!" Puxiong urged loudly.

Yao Xiang heard this, fell into contemplation, the jade seal of the country is he and the army under his command, hard work to get, if it is handed over to Pu Hong, he is naturally 10,000 unwilling, but at this moment, the army under his command is surrounded by Pu Hong on all sides, if Pu Hong leads the army to attack, he and the 30,000 army under his command will inevitably suffer heavy losses, and once these 30,000 elites suffer heavy losses, even if they have the jade seal, it will be difficult to recover for a while, of course, Yao Xiang is most worried about after he hands over the jade seal, Puhong is still attacking him, and if so, it would be even worse.

"Yao Xian's nephew has been thinking about it for so long, and it is time to make a decision." Seeing that Yao Xiang was undecided, Pu Hong reminded softly.

Yao Xiang looked at Pu Hong and said, "If I hand over the jade seal of the country, how should General Pu treat me." ”

Pu Hong said without thinking: "Our army will get out of the way, and the virtuous nephew can leave freely." ”

"That's true." Yao Xiang confirmed.

Pu Hong affirmed: "The old man is full of his word, besides, does Yao Xian's nephew have any other choice?" ”

Yao Xiang sighed, looked sideways at Yao Chang beside him, and said softly, "Give the gold-plated copper box to General Pu." ”

"Fifth brother, think twice!" Yao Chang persuaded softly.

Yao Xiang closed his eyes helplessly and said softly: "We have no choice, let's go!" ”

"Yes, Fifth Brother." Yao Chang answered, rode back, and quickly brought the gold-plated copper box over.

"Fifth brother." Yao Chang handed the gold-plated copper box into Yao Xiang's hands.

Yao Xiang took the gold-plated copper box, looked at Pu Hong, and said softly: "General Pu, this is the jade seal of the country." With that, he handed it out with both hands.

Seeing this, Pu Jian stepped forward to take the gold-plated copper box and handed it to Pu Hong's hands.

Pu Hong shook the gold-plated copper box, looked at Yao Xiang, and said softly: "Nephew Yao Xian, this is the heirloom jade seal?" ”

"Don't hide it from General Pu, my nephew doesn't know what is inside, but I believe that it must be the heirloom jade seal." Yao Xiang said affirmatively.

Pu Hong carefully observed the gold-plated copper box, and found that it was engraved with the four big characters of the jade seal of the country, and he already believed ninety percent in his heart, in fact, when he was loyal to Shi Hu, he had seen this gold-plated copper box with his own eyes, at that time, this box and the jade seal inside were in Shi Hu's hands, and Shi Hu used it in front of him.

"Okay, the old man believes in Yao Xian's nephew." Pu Hong said loudly, and then ordered: "Get out of the way and let Yao Xian's nephew go to Taishan County." ”

The generals under his command immediately conveyed the order, and soon, the encirclement of Puhong's army flashed a big gap.

Seeing that Pu Hong learned that he was going to Taishan County, Yao Xiang was surprised, so it seems that Pu Hong in front of him not only knows his actions well, but even has insight into his own thoughts, such a person, it is really terrifying.

Yao Xiang looked at Yao Chang and said softly: "Let the army set off immediately, and change later." ”

Yao Chang received the order and immediately issued an order, and then, Yao Xiang and his 30,000 troops quickly left Puhong's encirclement and quickly rushed towards Taishan County.

After leaving the encirclement for more than ten miles, Yao Xiang finally breathed a sigh of relief, but the unwillingness in his heart was even stronger.

"Fifth brother, could it be that the jade seal of the country that we have worked so hard to get is just given to Pu Hong, an old fellow?" Like Yao Xiang, Yao Chang is also very unwilling.

Yao Xiang said helplessly: "Our army is not strong, it is not Pu Hong's opponent, what can we do if we don't give it up?" Do you want to wipe out our army? ”

Yao Chang raised his eyebrows, and said with a straight face: "Fifth brother, now that our army has escaped from Pu Hong's encirclement, there is no need to be afraid of Pu Hong anymore, besides, Zhang Yu and the others' soldiers and horses should only be a day's journey according to this, if Pu Hong and Zhang Yu and their coalition army fight, they will definitely lose both, and when the time comes, our army will not have a chance!" ”

When Yao Xiang heard this, he pondered for a while, shook his head and said: "Pu Hong is a character, I'm afraid that Zhang Yu and others can't hurt him at all, so our army shouldn't join in this fun, besides, the Jin army's 20,000 horses are hoarding Yongqiu, and the intention is unknown, which is also worrying!" ”

When Yao Chang heard this, he didn't say anything anymore.

In order to reach the north of the Yellow River as soon as possible, Pu Hong immediately ordered the army to set off and rushed to the south bank of the Yellow River, preparing to cross the river to the north, and at the same time, closely monitor the every move of Yao Xiang, Zhang Yu and others, so that he can be fully prepared.

As Yao Xiang guessed, Zhang Yu and others were unable to do their best, and in a valley in Jibei County, they were ambushed by Puhong's army, and suffered extremely heavy losses.

Two days later, Puhong's main army and more than 100,000 people gathered on the south bank of the Yellow River, preparing to cross the river to the north and enter the land of Hebei for development. (To be continued......)
