Chapter 139: Phased Victory

"It seems that we have to work harder, you see those people around Chen Dale, obviously the momentum is much stronger, think this is Chen Dale's reliance and hole cards, we must let Chen Dalein use these people, when the time comes, the king will raid from behind, and the combat effectiveness of the cavalry of the thousands of periods,." Dongfang Shuo held his sword and looked at the banner of King Wuyang in the distance, and said to Li Ling, although they didn't know where Huo Guang was now, but they were sure that Huo Guang was also paying attention to the battlefield.

"Looks like I'm going to tear down some beams?" Li Ling said with a wry smile, the trick of demolishing the house beams is often used when defending the city, but in this way, it is actually equivalent to telling the attacking side that there are no more equipment to defend the city on his side. However, at present, the defenders of Huaixian County are going to make an irresistible posture, so that Chen Dalein can send the last reliance.

"Well, let's go. I'm looking at it here, and the bandits won't be able to attack it for a while. Dongfang Shuo nodded and said. Huaixian County is strong, and it is really unrealistic for these bandits to attack it in a while.

Half an hour later, Li Ling finally took the people to move a large number of beams to the city tower. When the first beam fell, smashing and injuring several rioters, Chen Dalein stood up excitedly, with a surprised expression on his face.

"Haha, it seems that the Huaixian defenders can't hold on. Chen Hu, it's time for you to get on. Chen Daleo said excitedly, the Chen Hu in his mouth was his brother, and he was also the leader of the elite team beside him. ( Pingnan Romance)

"The king is waiting for my good news!" Chen Hu is tall and big, and he carries a big axe. After receiving the order, he rushed to the city gate with thousands of people beside Chen Dale. This group of people is really much stronger than ordinary rebels, and thousands of people rushing to the gate of Huaixian County really feel like stepping through the city. However, in this way, there are only more than 100 people left around Chen Dale.

"Brothers, work hard to hold this wave. Jun Shang is coming soon! Li Ling was also shocked when he saw this, at least Chen Hu's team still had momentum, and he didn't dare to be careless, so he could only boost morale and appease the soldiers.

Ten miles away, plus the buffer distance of observation, Huo Guang's exploration horse is actually only seven or eight miles away from the hidden canyon. Just when Chen Hu led a thousand strong bandits to attack the city, Huo Guang also got the news, and at this time, he finally couldn't bear it anymore, and the whole army rushed out of the valley and rushed towards the battlefield outside Huaixian County at the fastest speed.

"Rush over, kill these bandits without leaving a piece of armor, and those who kill Chen Da Leper will be rewarded with 100 gold and will be promoted to the second class, and those who capture Chen Da Leper alive will be rewarded with 500 gold, and those who will be promoted to the third class." Soon Huo Guang's team appeared behind Chen Dale's army formation, Huo Guang shouted a few words, then grabbed the reins and let the horse stop, but the period gate army behind him still poured into the battlefield like a tide.

The arrival of the period gate army is really like a flock of tigers and sheep, and thousands of period gate troops take advantage of the cavalry advantage, dozens of people are a battle group, and they are scattered throughout the battlefield in an instant, and countless bandits have fallen everywhere they pass. Even though there were nearly 10,000 people, Chen Dalein was powerless under the surprise attack of the Qimen army, and at this moment Chen Daleper also panicked and rode on a war horse and fled in the direction of Wuyang under the protection of more than 100 guards.

At this moment, it was the strong bandits led by Chen Hu who came forward, and after giving up the siege, they could barely form a resistance to fight with the cavalry of the period, but these people were also infantry, although they resisted in array, but under the impact of the cavalry of the period gate wave after wave, more and more people fell, and it seemed that these people were all going to be slaughtered.

Chen Dale's escape was not so easy, from the beginning of the appearance of the Qimen army, there was a team of people rushing straight towards Chen Dale, when Chen Dalein wanted to escape, this team of people also chased after him. And the leader of this team of Qimen Army is Langguan Shangguan Jie, and now Shangguan Jian has chased two or three miles with his team, seeing that Chen Daleo and others are in front.

Shangguan Ji is now young and vigorous, and Huo Guang handed him the task of chasing Chen Dalein in advance this time, he knew that Huo Guang was deliberately cultivating him, and all Shangguan Ji was holding back a lot of strength in their hearts, they must complete this task beautifully, Chen Dalein must die!

Huo Guang's courage is now getting bigger and bigger, although Shangguan Ji is his great enemy in history, but now history has changed because of himself, Huo Guang really plans to recruit Shangguan Ji and train him to be his right-hand man, and aside from the factors with different positions in the original history, Shangguan Ji is indeed a talent, Huo Guang sometimes even thinks that one day he will train himself to become Shangguan Ji and let him contain Sang Hongyang, what kind of situation will it be?

Shangguan Ji took the lead and had already chased to the rear of Chen Dale's team, and several unhappy bandits who were running on inferior horses were directly picked off the horse by Shangguan Ji with a spear from the rear, and they died without even struggling.

Because of Chen Dale's nouveau riche mentality, he especially likes to pay attention to pomp, and even this attack on Huaixian County he was wearing a royal robe in a hurry, so Chen Dalein is very easy to recognize. Seeing that Chen Da Leper was getting closer and closer to him, Shangguan Ji clamped the horse's belly with his legs, and then took off the bow hanging on the horse's back, and in the gallop of the war horse, Shangguan Ji bent the bow and took the arrow, and the action was done in one go, but after a few breaths, a sharp arrow crossed the dozens of horse bandits and directly inserted into the back of Chen Da Le, who was still running away.

"Plop", Chen Dale, who was still on horseback, fell off the horse, fell to the ground and raised a puff of smoke and dust, and the cavalry guards behind him couldn't slow down when they couldn't catch off guard, and several horse hooves fell on Chen Dale's body, even if he was not killed by Shangguan Ji's arrow, he must have been trampled to death by the horse's hooves.

"The King...... The king ...... "The sudden change made the bandits panic for a while, these people hurriedly tightened the reins, and several guards turned over and dismounted and picked up Chen Dale. As a result, this look made these guards startled, at this moment, Chen Dalein had no breath at all, and his face was also trampled by the horse's hooves, which looked very terrifying.

"The king is dead, everyone run...... someone was the first to call out, and the guards who did not dismount did not have time to think, and hurriedly urged the horses to continue to flee.

"Want to run? The brothers continued to chase, and none of them could let go. Shangguan Ji picked up his spear and killed a few close bandits, and this short stay allowed Shangguan Ji's people to engage with the bandits, and after a period of scuffle, more than a dozen bandit corpses were left. And those bandits who fled a distance were still being chased by Shangguan Ji and others.

As for Chen Dale's corpse on the ground, Shangguan Ji and the others didn't care about him for the time being. Speaking of which, Shangguan Ji still felt a little pity, originally his arrow was not to take Chen Dale's name, but this guy's luck was too bad, and he was trampled to death by his own horse's hooves. Shangguan Ji originally wanted to capture Chen Dalein alive, even if he only had one breath left, because Huo Guangke said that there is still a big difference between killing Chen Dalein and capturing him and getting a reward.

Shangguan Ji is still chasing the fleeing bandits, and the battle under Huaixian County is basically coming to an end, under the one-sided slaughter of the period gate army, these bandits have no power to parry at all, as long as they face each other head-on, the period gate army is a steady victory, not to mention that this time it is still in the case of the period gate army sneak attack from behind. After the gate army killed nearly 3,000 bandits and almost wiped out Chen Hu's department, the battle was also coming to an end, and the other bandits basically knelt on the ground and surrendered and begged for mercy without much resistance, and these people Huo Guang did not rush to kill, and they were all imprisoned first.

There is almost no suspense in this battle, and the three county towns occupied by Chen Daleo will definitely be successfully recovered after this battle. And after this war, Huo Guang also occupied an absolute advantage in Hanoi, whether it was the control area or the soldiers. However, at this time, he was still a little worried about Du Yannian, who feinted to attack Xiuwu County.

Let Du Yannian pretend to be himself, this is Huo Guang's idea, in fact, when he deliberately leaked the battle plan to Dong Luwei from the beginning, he had the intention of luring the king into the urn, Huo Guang felt that anyone who knew that he would lead the main force to leave Huai County might come to attack Huai County. Of course, there may be no one to sneak attack Huaixian, and it is just a useless effort.

However, it turned out that Dong Luwei was indeed an undercover agent arranged by the thief by his side, and the situation in front of him showed that Dong Luwei was Chen Dale's person. However, Huo Guang has always been very skeptical about this, because his intuition told him that Chen Dalein did not have the ability or the scheming to arrange undercover agents next to him from the beginning, and more importantly, Chen Dalein could not have the ability to kill Wang Wenshu, if he had this ability, he would not have to wait until he arrived in Hanoi to do it.

This is the biggest loophole and where it doesn't make sense. Huo Guang really wanted to talk to Dong Luwei, he wanted to see what else this woman could say in front of him?

And just when the battle in Huaixian County was over, Shangguan Ji lived up to Huo Guang's expectations and came to see Huo Guang with Chen Dale's head, a soldier riding a fast horse from Xiuwu County also appeared in front of Huo Guang.

"Your Majesty, Lord Du has persuaded Xu Bo, the thief leader of Xiuwu County, to surrender, and now Lord Du has taken over Xiuwu City." The soldier said loudly, not only Huo Guang heard it, but even some officials next to him heard it clearly.

"Hahahaha...... Okay, great...... It is worthy of Du Yannian! Huo Guang clenched his right hand into a fist and hit him hard in the palm of his left hand, this news really surprised him, of course, this accident was an unexpected joy. Originally, Huo Guang asked Du Yannian to pretend to be himself, just to make the play more realistic, but he didn't expect Du Yannian to persuade Xu Bo to surrender by himself, and it can be said that he recovered a city without blood.

The destruction of Chen Dale's forces in one day is equivalent to recovering three cities, plus Du Yannian has obtained another city, that is to say, Huo Guang recovered four cities in one day, and Huo Guang of the sixteen counties of Hanoi regained control of eight counties, which is a phased victory.
