"Retreat!" Yang Gongqing looked at the inconspicuous hill in front of him, his face was ugly, he thought it was just a hand-to-hand task, who would have thought that just such a hill would swallow nearly 10,000 troops alive, and if this number continues, it will be more.

"Boom~"

Another place is on fire, even if it is far away, you can still see many burning figures rolling and struggling on the mountain, even if you can't see it, Yang Gongqing can guess that it is his own person.

Since joining the army, Yang Gongqing is still the first time to fight such an aggrieved battle, and now, except for the group of headless flies-like warriors, he has not even seen the true face of the opponent, and he doesn't even know which enemy is hiding in the mountain at the moment, this feeling is quite aggrieved.

Go on the offensive?

Unlikely, the morale has been continuously depressed because of the disappearance of the men and horses sent in the previous succession, and now, if they are forcibly sent to attack the mountain, I am afraid that it will cause a mutiny, at this time, the best choice is to withdraw the troops, but in this way, Wang Shichong's reproach is inevitable after returning.

Of course, there is no other way to attack the mountain, such as fire attack, once the fire goes down, I am afraid that there will be nothing left on this mountain, but it is not easy to say.

Don't look at so many successful cases of fire attacks in history, they can only succeed under the premise of adequate preparation, fire oil, wind direction, and many fire-causing materials, setting fire to the mountain sounds simple, but if you really want to do it, you need too many external factors, many of which are not available now

The safest way is to surround the mountains and force the enemy to come out and fight him head-on when there is no water and food, but the question is, will Wang Shichong be willing to let him wait? With Yang Gongqing's understanding of Wang Shichong. If he really chooses this path, it is estimated that he will be ruthlessly punished by Wang Shichong tomorrow.

"Alas~" Thinking of his gloomy tomorrow, Yang Gongqing couldn't help sighing, but now that his morale has been discharged, if he doesn't withdraw, he will not face punishment. Rather, mutiny!

"Yes, act decisively, when decisive, when decisive, there is the style of a general, no wonder the main guild looks at the old general differently!" A leisurely exclamation seemed to sound from behind.

"What man!?" Yang Gongqing suddenly turned his head and looked at the middle-aged man who appeared under his handsome banner, his pupils shrank sharply, and a sense of meaning came to his heart, so close to the distance. If the other party didn't speak out just now but shot directly...... Yang Gongqing knows very well what kind of group of people he is facing on this mission, so he has always attached great importance to his own protection, but Rao is so, and he was still touched by the other party silently.

"In Xia Yang Xiao, on the order of my lord, I came to ask the general for a talk!" Yang Xiao said with a smile. Although there are tens of thousands of troops around, they are all calm. Whether it is strong or has real talent and learning, this courage to treat the army as nothing alone is impressive.

"I wonder who your father-in-law is?" Yang Gongqing took a deep breath, although he didn't know the identity of the other party, but at this moment, he was sure that the person in front of him was absolutely inseparable from the troops hidden in the mountain. It also made him more curious about who could make such characters loyal?

"My father-in-law...... Li Xuan. The corners of Yang Xiao's mouth twitched, looked at Yang Gongqing and said, "I believe General Yang will not be a stranger." ”

Yang Gongqing took a breath of cold air, looked at Yang Xiao, and said in a deep voice: "Your Excellency is now in the midst of ten thousand armies, and Yang doesn't know where Your Excellency's courage comes from. However, since you are here, I can't let you go back today! Come on, take it for me! ”

As he spoke, Yang Gongqing himself retreated, this is where his army is, he only needs to distance himself, he believes that even if the three great masters come in person, they will only be consumed alive by these thousands of troops.

It's just that Yang Xiao didn't give him this opportunity, he didn't hurry, he shuttled through the crowd like a leisurely stroll, and his body never left the place where Yang Gongqing had promised, and the soldiers who rushed up around him gradually became chaotic under the traction of Yang Xiao.

"Come with me!" Like carrying a chicken, Yang Gongqing's body was picked up, Yang Gongqing was also a military general, although he was not mainly charged into battle, but his martial arts were also passable, but in front of Yang Xiao, he didn't even have the ability to resist, so he was picked up by the other party. When several lieutenants returned to Luoyang City with the remnants of the army, the 50,000-strong army was already less than 30,000.

At this time, Yang Gongqing finally saw Li Xuan himself, looking at Li Xuan with an indifferent look in front of him, Yang Gongqing smiled bitterly: "I heard that there are no weak soldiers under the strong general, Yang was captured today, and he is convinced, but the loyal ministers are not the second master, since the veteran chooses to be loyal to General Wang, he will not change the court, and I hope that the Sword Emperor will forgive me." ”

"A man of loyalty! It's a pity that it's a little stupid. Li Xuan nodded and looked at Yang Gongqing, who was puzzled, and said: "Wang Shichong This person has also had a cooperation before, he is a man who is wide on the outside and jealous on the inside, he has the wisdom to know people, but he has no ability to use people, General Yang is on an errand under Wang Shichong, I guess I know this better than me, this person will be a dry bone in the grave sooner or later, General Yang is handsome and unparalleled, but why should he be foolish and loyal?" ”

"Li is now a grass-roots force, it is the time to employ people, at any time welcome General Yang and other people with real skills to join, I know, General Yang must be worried about the safety of his family, this point does not have to be taken to heart, before the election of the emperor, I have ordered someone to secretly take General Yang's family out of Luoyang City, do not worry about Wang Shichong as a threat."

"Dare to ask the Sword Emperor, does the veteran still have a choice?" Yang Gongqing looked at Li Xuan with a wry smile, it seems that people have already targeted him, but he doesn't know it yet, but he doesn't blame Li Xuan in his heart, but it is the decisive means of the other party that makes Yang Gongqing admire, and now he and his family have been served in a pot, and there is nothing to say.

"It seems to be gone." Li Xuan tilted his head sideways and said with a smile: "It is really a great blessing for our army to have the help of General Yang!" ”

……

Luoyang's Emperor Election Conference, finally ended in this way beyond everyone's expectations, no one expected that Wang Shichong really dared to send troops to besiege, the Emperor Election Conference, although the top masters were not damaged, but its warriors who went to Luoyang, nine out of ten people died under the encirclement and suppression, so that Wang Shichong's prestige in the rivers and lakes plummeted, Li Mi took this opportunity to go out of Xingyang, ready to capture Luoyang in one fell swoop, to achieve his hegemony.

As for the purpose of the Emperor Election Conference, the grand goal of choosing the Lord on behalf of the people of the world has become a joke, and the family is nowhere to be found, Ning Daoqi was first defeated by the Sword Emperor Li Xuan, and then was intimidated by an unknown master and did not dare to move, which also made Ning Daoqi and Cihang Jingzhai fall in popularity in this battle, especially Ning Daoqi, the reputation of the first master of the Central Plains was completely ruined in this battle.

However, the worst loss is not any of the three parties, the Pure Nian Zen Temple, since the emptiness, the four Vajra Protectors were killed and wounded, and the monks were killed and injured in the battle with a large number of warriors, even the Pure Nian Zen Temple, which has a special significance in Buddhism, also collapsed in this battle, it can be said that this Buddhist holy land with the same transcendent status as Cihang Jingzhai, after this battle, the vitality was greatly injured, and afterwards it was announced that the mountain would be closed, and the guests were refused.

On the contrary, it is the name of the Sword Emperor and then this to lead the world, and the Bi of the family was destroyed, this matter is only known to a few people, with the election of the emperor in such a bleak way to end, but the rumor that the Bi of the and the Bi was actually taken by the Emperor of the Sword gradually spread, coupled with the silence of Cihang Jingzhai afterwards, it was even more disguised to confirm this speculation.

Although it is not the Ming monarch elected by Cihang Jingzhai on behalf of the Heavenly Chosen Emperor, but the one who has the best of the clan wins the world, at least in the hearts of many people, the sword emperor Li Xuan has faintly replaced Li Shimin, who was trying his best to build momentum in Cihang Jingzhai, and has become the representative of the orthodox Mingjun, after all, compared to Li Shimin's embarrassing identity, Li Xuan, as the overlord of one side, has repeatedly shown extraordinary means, and various situations under his rule seem to be more in line with the standards of Mingjun.

Although there are also opponents, but only few, two months after the end of the emperor election conference, Jiujiang Lin Shihong suddenly died, died in his own mansion, Jiujiang has no owner, under the push of several Lin Shihong's right-hand men before his death, Jiujiang announced the surrender of Li Xuan, officially put into Li Xuan's command.

In the same month, because of the demise of Baling Xiao Miao, Shen Faxing, who was sandwiched between Li Xuan and Song Valve, was unable to face such a situation after all, and took the initiative to surrender to Song Valve, connecting Lingnan and Bashu.

In just a few months, the shape of the south has changed rapidly, from the original group of heroes, and now, only Song Valve, Li Xuan and the southeast coast of Fu Gongyou and Li Zitong coalition army tripartite situation, people with a heart can see that the alliance of Fu Gongyou and Li Zitong is just struggling to support, no one will be optimistic about these two forces, the eyes of the princes, most of them are focused on Li Xuan and Song Valve, looking forward to the decisive battle between these two southern forces to determine the real overlord of the south, at the same time, I am also looking forward to what kind of sparks will collide between the two most prestigious knives in the world.

At this time, Li Xuan openly called the emperor, the founding of the country is undoubtedly the most sensitive part of the hearts of the heroes, since the establishment of the Tang Dynasty by Li Valve, this is the second prince to establish the emperor and call the emperor, and almost in just one month, Wang Shichong and Dou Jiande also successively called the emperor and the founding of the country, the original situation of the princes fighting for hegemony seems to have suddenly become several countries competing for power, and the attitude of the Song valve makes people feel ambiguous and inexplicable, for Li Xuan's approach to the emperor, the Song valve did not use this as an excuse to start a war, but sent an envoy group, on the day Li Xuan founded the country and called the emperor, went to congratulate, such a move also disappointed the princes who had been looking forward to a big war, and even more vigilant.
