Chapter 594: Battle - Elegy: Beacon Fire
"Hold on?" Qian Yucheng looked through the messages transmitted by the holy insect several times, and its content was indeed "Stick to Pingdingshan!" ”
One of the commanders of the Poisonous Spider Legion raised his doubts: "Could it be that the news passed on is wrong?" Or maybe there's something wrong with the holy worm......"
"Impossible!" Qian Yucheng immediately raised his hand and interrupted, "The Holy Worm is only ordered by the Sect Master and the Church Washing Master, and will never betray my sect!" ”
"That is, the sect leader has other deep meanings, otherwise it would be impossible to carry out this meaningless order at this time!"
Qian Yucheng also considered this in his heart, and immediately ordered: "Before the sect leader's next military order is issued, the northern army must not be allowed to enter the mountain!" ”
"Yes!"
……
The same situation happened in various passes of the Southern Army, and the retreat orders originally issued by Yao Shuang on behalf of Yao Shuang all became "strictly guarded", but Yao Shuang was unaware of it, and the serious consequence was the battle that broke out in the middle of the night outside the Water Drop Array! The powerful legions of the Southern Army, such as the Ninth and Third Legions, still have the strength to fight, but the legions with weak combat strength are not so good, that is called a heaven should not be called the earth, and the despair soon spread to the entire Water Drop Array!
Tongxu City, less than half an hour after the commander of the Sixteenth Legion, Kilgardan, took office, he ushered in the joint attack of the Northern Army Fengwu, the strongest legion under Piaoxiang, the White God Legion, and the Qinglian Legion! Tong Xu experienced the destruction of the Northern Army before, it was a broken city, and yesterday it was attacked by the Northern Army for a whole day, and the domineering president barely supported it so that the city would not be destroyed, but Tong Xu was already full of holes and was in danger. Although the arrival of Kilgardan gave Tongxu City a backbone, it was precisely because of this that the defeat of the Sixteenth Legion was accelerated!
There are also factions within the Supreme Alliance, there are lazy war factions such as the domineering president, Supreme BOSS, etc., as well as powerful war factions Alsace, Yunshui Ballads, etc., Kilgardan is the top of the original Scourge Legion, so he is naturally more inclined to Arthas, and he will not flinch in the face of the enemy, and he will resist to the end!
But sometimes a tough attitude towards the enemy will only cause more severe consequences, and the domineering president is very cowardly, but the stubborn defense of Tongxu City has achieved quite good results, and it can be held out for a whole day. Kilgardan had just arrived, and he didn't know the comparison of the enemy's combat strength at all, so he only relied on his enthusiasm and impulsiveness, and under the endless siege and suppression of the Northern Army, he actually led the whole army out of the city to meet the enemy, vowing to ignite the first fire of the new officer's appointment!
The gate of the northern city was opened, and Kilgardan took the lead in the crowd of northern soldiers, exerting all his skills, showing his supreme majesty, like a sharp knife straight into the heart of the northern army! Seeing that it was like a fierce tiger, the northern army was difficult to resist for a while, so they all made way and let it easily enter the camp of the Chinese army.
Shi Baige and Li Jianxian were discussing the destruction of the city in the camp, and suddenly heard the battle report, saying: "The general Kilgardan has been killed in front of the tent, and the two commanders are also asked to avoid the edge for the time being, abandon the camp and withdraw first!"
Bai Pigeon and Li Jianxian laughed, they were suffering from no good way to break the city, and the southern army was so stupid that they sent it to the door by themselves, and it was the sleepy pillow that was sent - heaven from the wish!
The White Dove and Li Jianxian divided their troops to fight, the main force of the White God Legion confronted Kilgadan, and the Qinglian Legion took the opportunity to attack Tongxu, around Kilgadan's brave and abnormal, how could he defeat the strongest combat power of the two alliances of the Northern Army? After holding on for less than a stick of incense, he was defeated and fled, and when he reached the city of Tongxu, the banner of the Northern Army had been planted all over the city, and Kilgardan had to flee by detour and go to Gaoyang to defect to Chengzhiwen.
However, the battle of Gaoyang also fell into dire straits, although the 17th Army had the Mingshan magic skill "Second Sun", but could not borrow the sun in the middle of the night, and could only fight hand-to-hand with the besieging northern army. Qin Ren, the commander of the Northern Army, directly ordered the two big box owners, Baili Ju and Xing Kaifang, to go into battle in person, attack the city from the cloud ladder, and kill the Quartet! Cheng Zhiwen personally led people to counterattack, and barely suppressed the continuous cloud ladder army of the Northern Army, but without the help of the sun, the defeat of the Seventeenth Army was only a matter of time.
And near Gaoyang's Qicheng, the southern army's water drop array defended the town, Xiao Xiao once again met his old opponent Lin Aotian, the two of them also took the lead, directly using the upper cards, Daozu Zhang Sanfeng, the fierce general Zhang Fei opened up the card battlefield alone, and launched a shocking battle at the head of Qicheng City, the sky was dark, and the starry sky was dark!
Far away at the other end of the Water Drop Array, the same defensive town of Ruzhou City, the siege resistance of Su Bingyun's army was much smaller, because according to reliable intelligence, the Ruzhou defender Bai Xiaobi suddenly disappeared after the battle during the day, and the first army had lost its backbone, so Su Bingyun ordered his soldiers to break the city with all their might, intending to take Ruzhou before Bai Xiaobi went online!
Of course, Su Bingyun also guessed the reason why Bai Xiaobi suddenly went offline, it may be that Yan Yunxing encountered danger in reality, she wanted to go offline to ask her father, but after thinking about it, since she had sent a god-slaying team to secretly protect her, and the Yangtze River Delta Night Owl team could rush to Jinling in time to support, Yan Yunxing would definitely be fine, but this black hand under Zhao Wouji was really despicable, and it also made her more eager to end this war that she was forced to "go to war".
The first legion of the top combat strength of the Southern Army, when the dragons and leaderless troops were disheartened, the first thing they should do was to retreat to Jiacheng, so that Yan Yunxing could appease the army, and then plunge into the battlefield, which was the right way. But Xuchang not only did not let the First Army withdraw, but also gave an order to defend to the death, and did not appoint a new army commander and defender, how could the soldiers work together to resist the strong enemy? What's more, their opponent is still Su Bingyun, the first person in the Southern Song Dynasty?
Two hours later, the city of Ruzhou was broken, the first army fled, surrendered, and almost all the army was annihilated!
The water drop array was broken by the northern army, Su Bingyun divided his troops, personally led a group of soldiers and horses to the north, and surrounded Huashi with the bloody and bloody army, Su Xiaoqing led a group of soldiers and horses to the south and Qin Shizong and Liu Chengzhong surrounded Shilong. The pressure on the Twelfth Legion and the Second Legion of the Southern Army surged, and he didn't dare to question Yan Yunxing's decision-making because of his identity, but the raging lion didn't have so many concerns, and personally wrote a letter by hand, ordering someone to secretly send out the flowers and stones, and asked Yan Yunxing why he didn't order the withdrawal of troops, and why he didn't send the defenders of Jiacheng to relieve the siege!
If this letter can be successfully delivered to Xuchang, maybe Yao Shuang can still react and stop the loss in time, but unfortunately without the help of the holy worm, how can the movements of the Southern Army scouts be hidden from Su Bingyun's eyes?
This letter for help was quickly intercepted by the sergeant under Su Bingyun's command, and through the content of the letter, Su Bingyun confirmed that Yan Yunxing had encountered danger in reality, and at the same time guessed that the Southern Army's magic weapon for all along-intelligence transmission had a serious crisis, and it was very likely that there was a problem with the Holy Worm!
Could it be the man behind Zao Wou-ki's back? Su Bingyun fell into doubt.
……
With the defeat of the First Army, the Southern Army, which lost its commander Yan Yunxing, also lost a kind of "combat spirituality", and in the case of the lack of timely transmission of information, the major top-level combat power regiments became cumbersome and unbearable, and they were all mired in the quagmire of war and could not extricate themselves. The Second Army was besieged; The Seventeenth Army was suffering from late-night battles, and its defeat was revealed; The eighteenth legion and Lin Aotian's army fought fiercely for half a night, and it was already the end of the crossbow; The Eighth Army and the Twenty-eighth Army were still in Xuchang, especially unconsciously, and the fierce battle with the periphery of the Water Drop Array seemed to be two worlds; The only ones who still had the strength to hold the pass were Xinzheng's Ninth Army Corps and Pingdingshan's Third Army.
……
After a hard-fought defensive battle for half a night, the Third Army was able to restrain the offensive of the Northern Army. At the same time, the northern army began to bury the pot to make rice, and the main general Wang Shifei intended to attack the mountain again after the sergeant was full of food and drink, but was stopped by Ouyang Changxiao and made a suggestion: "The southern army is condescending and occupies the advantage of the terrain, and our army's strong attack will inevitably be frustrated, why not retreat to the bottom of the mountain, cut off its water and grain routes, and wait for the southern army to be hungry and thirsty and tired, and then attack the mountain in a big way, and it will be able to win in one battle!" ”
Wang Shifei listened to Ouyang Changxiao's suggestion and ordered the soldiers to retreat slowly, and he personally broke off with Chang Jing's envoy, Ouyang Changxiao, and Bu Mian to prevent the southern army from pursuing. There was nothing to say all the way, and the army had just retreated to the foot of the mountain, when suddenly the scout came to report that a woman asked to see her, claiming that she could help the northern army capture Pingdingshan!
Wang Shifei was in a hurry to invite someone, and he looked at it and felt familiar, and then looked closely, but it was the same sister who had not seen it for many years. Honghua was not moved at all, let alone pretended, but said coldly: "I will go to Pingding Mountain now, you don't need to besiege under the mountain, just take your people to attack the mountain immediately." Then he walked away.
When Chang Jing saw Honghua's true face for the first time, he was quite dissatisfied with his rude attitude, and said angrily: "How can you have such a character as a junior sister? There is no order of the young and the old, the difference between respect and inferiority, it is strange that she wants to betray her master and join the Demon Sect, and she is really the same as the Severe Poison Demon! ”
Wang Shifei smiled indifferently and said, "She has ignored my master for twenty years, let alone me, a senior brother who has only met once?" This time, it is not easy for the master of the door to say that she is sincere, so let's stop asking for so much red tape, which makes her unhappy and not beautiful. ”
"Hearing you say that, I admire the master even more." The scriptures often make the way of relief.
Ouyang Changxiao shook his head slightly and said, "I heard Xie Protector mention that her surrender is not a method of the sect master, but is related to a trialist. ”
Wang Shifei listened to a few people talking farther and farther, and hurriedly got back to the topic, so he ordered the whole army to climb the mountain again, so tossing back and forth, causing the four disciples of the Hagyang Sect to complain, Wang Shifei went to appease the army without mentioning it.
……
At this time, on the Pingding Mountain, the camp of the Central Army of the Southern Army ushered in a saffron flower of the "Five Poisons Colleagues".
Seeing that he was going up the mountain alone, Qian Yucheng hurriedly asked why he came from, Honghua looked around and whispered: "There are many people, and it is inevitable that the wind will leak." Qianyu Cheng immediately retired from the generals, and Honghua "explained" the reason for going up the mountain and the battle situation of the Southern Army.
"The sect leader has great powers, and he has long expected that the northern army will attack all the passes of our army day and night, and he has already thought of a countermeasure, that is, the ninth, first, second, third, seventeenth, and eighteenth army corps were ordered to hold on to attract the firepower of the northern army, and the other legions retreated to a new garrison point, and when the formation shrinked, the remaining troops were used to support you and others to hold the various departments, so as to completely defeat the Ruzhou-Pingdingshan, Qicheng-Gaoyang Northern Army with more fights and less!"
"Wonderful!" Qian Yucheng slapped his thigh and applauded, "The sect leader's plan is really exquisite!" You're the spare force, hahaha...... Tell me, who else is with you? ”
"The Eighth Army Master of the Fifth Legion." Safflower replied.
"Good! All right! Qian Yucheng stroked his palms and laughed, and said, "I guess Cheng Siying and Cheng Jun Master went to Shilong, right?" ”
Honghua nodded with a smile and said, "That's right, there are also Purple Protector and Nangong Gongzi with you." ”
"Hahaha...... The leader of the sect is really a man of God! Laying down such a large array is really extraordinary! Qian Yucheng praised Yan Yunxing from afar, and suddenly asked, "How is the situation under the mountain?" ”
Honghua said: "The Northern Army withdrew its troops for some reason, and happened to encounter our army at the foot of the mountain, I took advantage of the chaos to report to you, it is to let you lead the army down the mountain, and the army master can fight back and forth, and defeat this Northern Army!" ”
"Oops...... Didn't you say it earlier? You don't know how aggrieved I am to nest on this hill! Let's go, go down the mountain, go down the mountain, and if you don't capture Wang Shifei alive, I'm sorry for your support from thousands of miles! Qian Yucheng immediately got up and summoned all the generals under his command, Honghua followed closely behind, and only listened to his order, and the third army rushed down the mountain!
