Hearing that the rebels were coming to attack at night, Fan Ning's heart suddenly rose to his throat, but Xue Ne was not panicked at all. Shi Yuannian was a despicable villain, and if he could sneak attack, he would never fight openly, these were all within his expectations, so he had never faded his light armor, and at this time he lifted his sword and instructed Fan Ning, "You stay here first, and I will come when I go", and hurried out of the account. But Fan Ning was the kind of person who could wait, so he immediately followed.

Outside the tent, the crossbowmen and archers of the army were in place, and they were at the forefront of the horse rejection array. Xue Ne ascended to the high platform behind the Chinese army, and when he saw that the rebels had advanced to within 100 paces, he immediately ordered a salvo of bows and crossbows. In an instant, an overwhelming rain of arrows rained down, causing the enemy strikers to roll on their backs.

However, this volley did not completely wipe out the thieves' advances, and the thieves in the rear immediately moved forward to replenish them. At this time, the vanguard team with the eight-foot-long Mo sword, the jumping soldiers with shield swords, and the heavy cavalry with long ges and sabers on their waists were already in position behind the crossbowmen.

However, Xenne did not give the order, but waited quietly for the rebels to approach. Eighty steps, fifty steps, thirty steps...... The enemy was close at hand, but the order was not issued, and the officers and men of the Tang Army could only hold their swords in both hands, and their arms trembled incessantly, and when the commander gave the order, they stabbed into the enemy's chest with all their might.

Xue Ne coldly observed the speed of the rebels' approach, and saw that the other party was already approaching within ten steps, so he immediately waved his hand and shouted in a beautiful voice: "Attack!" ”

In an instant, the Tang Army's shouts of killing resounded through the valley, and among the endless crowd of crows, a pretty figure rode a horse and held a knife, rushing to the front, and the crimson cloak fluttered in the wind.

Seeing this, Xue Ne, who was on the high platform, suddenly skipped a beat, the reason why he begged the second saint to let Fan Ning enter the military camp, although there was an element of valuing her superb martial arts, but it was more to protect her by his side.

Xue Ne, who was still incomparably calm, was in turmoil at this time, and his eyes looked at the thinnest but most flexible figure in the crowd for a moment. Under the leadership of Fan Ning, the battle front team walked in unison, wielding a bright and flickering Mo knife, and in an instant, a steel blade iron wall was built across the entire valley, stabbing at the thief soldiers in front of them like a mountain of seas.

The thieves were frightened by the sight, and they began to retreat one after another, some even fell into the Yellow River with men and horses in order to escape for their lives, and some did not pay attention to morality at all, and retreated with their own wounded who fell to the ground, and the wails came and went.

However, before the enemy army could adjust, they saw Li Jingye and Li Yuanyan each leading a team of elite cavalry from the side of the valley to outflank and rush into the enemy formation to slash and kill. The huge impact of the horse formation knocked the rebel soldiers in the front row almost in unison, and the thieves' army was completely disorganized, and the thieves who fell into the water were countless, and the thieves could no longer maintain their positions, and began to flee in the direction of Hangu Pass. Li Jingye would let them escape easily, holding a spear and continuing to lead the cavalry to chase them out, without giving them the slightest chance to breathe.

The remnants of the rebels had fled from view, and Xue Ne immediately ordered Mingjin to withdraw his troops, while the Tang army, which still maintained a neat array, gradually retreated back to the horse, while the garrisons swarmed out to clear the battlefield and capture the wounded. As a result, the Tang army suffered almost no casualties, while 800 of the thieves were beheaded and 3,000 captured.

Xue Ne hurriedly stepped down from the high platform and said to Fan Ning, who came forward with a smug face, "Do you want me to worry about death?" ”

"I'm also a general, why are you all in battle, but I have to hide in the house?"

Xue Nefang wanted to reason with Fan Ning, so he saw Li Jingye's father and daughter striding from not far away, so he had to suppress the conversation first, and turned around to salute Li Jingye.

Li Jingye replied with a slight salute and said with a smile: "General Ben can be regarded as having grown up watching Shen Yan, but I didn't know that you had such a talent." When I saw it today, I deeply felt that there were successors in our Tang Army, and the two saints and Ling Zun would definitely be very pleased. ”

"General Li has won the award, the general is the commander, Shen Yan is the deputy marshal, and this battle should have been commanded by the general. It's just that Shen Yan is not good at martial arts, and he is really not good at killing the enemy, so he wronged the general, and he also hoped that the general Haihan. ”

"What's this, no matter what seniority has always been in my Tang Army, as long as you can win battles, retreat enemy soldiers, and make the best use of your talents, why not?"

Li Yuan's face was covered with sweat, and when she saw that Fan Ning was still refreshing and good-looking, she couldn't help but be a little embarrassed, and hid behind Li Jingye.

Xue Ne sensed her discomfort and said with a smile: "According to the intelligence of the Wind Shadow, there should be no offensive tonight, and the general and the county lord can rest early." Next, according to the original plan, General Lao will defend this place instead of me, and Fan Ning and I will take 2,000 soldiers who are good at climbing mountains and roads, cross Zhongtiao Mountain to Wanquan in Jiangzhou, and block the support of Shi Yuannian......"

"According to the current situation, the thief is well prepared, if he has a large number of backups, what can you do with the two thousand?" Li Yuanyan was not ashamed, and poked her head out to ask Xue Ne, seemingly really worried.

"If the situation is really unfavorable, we can lead the crowd to retreat across Nakajo Mountain. Most of the enemy were cavalry, unable to climb over the mountains and mountains, and could not catch up with us. Xue Ne said this to Li Yuanyan, but her eyes still stopped at Fan Ning's little face, Fan Ning knew that she was at a loss, but she was rare and well-behaved, she pursed her lips and smiled coquettishly, without the slightest anger to go into battle to kill the enemy, she was already very beautiful, and her appearance was even more indescribably moving.

Li Yuanyan saw it in her eyes, and suddenly remembered that when she went to visit Xue Ne in stargazing when she was a child, she saw Fan Ning's appearance for the first time, and in just a short glance, she felt that Xue Ne treated Fan Ning closer, even if she met him earlier and proposed marriage, she still couldn't shake the position of this girl in his heart, and now it is even more different from then, that kid's foolish watchfulness finally got Fan Ning's response. Li Yuanyan is also a girl's family, that kind of delicate and cute look, she has also had it, but unfortunately no one can understand, only she has noticed it when she looks in the mirror. But she is no longer the jealous and hateful barbaric girl, and spends her mind more on the imminent war than on the personal affairs of her children, and nods and says: "My father and I have rested in peace for the past few days, you two should be more careful, and if there is any danger, you will order the scout to deliver the news at any time." ”

Taking advantage of the soldiers' efforts to pack up and prepare to pull out the camp, Xue Ne took Fan Ning back to the military tent. Fan Ning couldn't see that he was unhappy, and took his hand, although his tone was still bad, his attitude was obviously soft: "Fang is not right, I went into battle without consulting you." But you see, even Li Yuanyan's three-legged cat's unstable kung fu has killed the enemy, how can I sit idly by? I know you're worried that I'm in danger, but have you ever thought that if you really have anything to do, I'll live alone......

Although they have long been in touch with each other, it is really unprecedented to hear Fan Ning say such explicit words, Xue Ne's face that was finally cold collapsed in an instant, he couldn't hold back any longer, hugged her into his arms, and said lightly: "Your thoughts, how can I not know?" But if I can't even protect the woman I love, what kind of man am I? ”

"So we'll kill the enemy together, won't we?" Fan Ning's eyes were like shining stars, clear and crystalline, making people unable to take their eyes off, "I will definitely be cautious, with my kung fu, ordinary people can't help me, you should believe that I am." ”

Indeed, with Fan Ning's kung fu, it is difficult for ordinary people Mo Ti to fight against her, even if she is close to her, but Xue Ne is still not at ease, and hesitates and relieves himself: "It's not impossible for you to go into battle, but you still have to obey the command of the military order, and don't let yourself be a hero......"

"Okay," Fan Ning deserved to be well-behaved and cheerful, and wanted to break away from Xue Ne to clean up his things, but he suddenly leaned over and kissed her on the lips. Fan Ning was stunned, thinking that it must have been Fang Cai's blind battle that scared him, so he also responded eagerly. The atmosphere in the tent was beautiful for a moment, it was obviously a battlefield of sword shadow and sword light, but it was as beautiful as the moon before the flower, suddenly, out of nowhere came an extremely slight laughter in his life, Fan Ning came back to his senses, immediately picked up the paperweight on the case and threw it over, only to hear a loud "knock" followed by a scream, a man less than five feet tall crawled out of the trench, showing his figure, not someone else, it was a gopher.

Fan Ning was surprised, happy and annoyed, stepped forward, raised his hand and slapped the big bag on the head of the gopher: "It's actually you kid?" When did you come? Silently peeking out there? ”

"Hey, Mrs. Xue spares her life...... Mrs. Yipin ordered Mrs. to spare her life......" The gopher shouted to spare his life, but he still didn't know whether he was alive or dead, he slipped away from Fan Ning's pursuit, and stepped forward to Xue Ne and said, "Xue Lang, according to what Fengying said, I went with the paper kite brothers to take a sneak peek, Xiao Langjun is indeed in the enemy camp now, locked in a cage with hyenas, and there are three or five people watching and throwing food for him." But Xiao Langjun didn't eat or drink, as if he knew that he had done something wrong, so he leaned on the cage and didn't say a word, letting them make fun of him......"

"Why didn't he bite his tongue and kill himself?" Fan Ning couldn't get angry, and said, "How many baskets have I stabbed since I was a child, and I let my brother wipe his ass every time, and this time he died again!" ”

Xue Ne was not as angry as Fan Ning, his eyes were heavy, but he couldn't put aside the fetters of family affection, and said to the gopher: "Chu Yu is guilty, there is an emperor and a queen of heaven, and there is a father to discipline him, whether it is not like a thief in the hands of a thief, or according to what I said before, when the war comes, Shi Yuannian will definitely relax his care for Chu Yu, and I will trouble you to take him out at that time." ”

Although Xue Chuyu was not good in every way, after all, he was Xue Ne's own brother, no matter how much Fan Ning hated him, he couldn't object to saving him, so he didn't say much, and asked the gopher instead: "Why are you all here?" What about the Painted Skin Fairy? ”

"Xue Lang sent someone to pick us up, and the painting fairy also came," the gopher laughed very thief, squeezed his eyes at Fan Ning, pouted, and made a kiss-like "chirp" sound, "They are not as lucky as me, they don't have such a good show, I'll go and work first, Mrs. Yipin, see you later!" ”

After that, without waiting for Fan Ning to make a move, the gopher jumped out of the tent and into the trench with lightning speed, and disappeared without a trace.

Fan Ning was ashamed and angry, his little face was so red that he seemed to be dripping blood, looking at the direction of the gopher fleeing for his life, he wanted to scold but couldn't. Xue Ne wrapped around her from behind, kissed her sideburns and said softly: "I will work hard to earn a first-class official as soon as possible......"

"I'm not rare," Fan Ning turned around, his little face was still fresh and ruddy, and said in a low voice, "As long as it's ...... If I can be nice with you, I will be content. ”

"Report! Two generals, our unit has been packed up and is ready to go! ”

Hearing the report from their subordinates, Xue Ne and Fan Ning did not delay any longer, and took two thousand lightly armed soldiers to cross the Yellow River from Dayang Bridge and went north into the mountains. Although it was an entry into the mountains, the slope here was gentle, and the march did not encounter major obstacles. Xue Ne wasted no time in ordering the soldiers to repair in place, eat and drink.

At noon the next day, a group of people and horses traveled to the real lofty mountains and mountains, only to see the thick clouds covering the sun, the wind and clouds on the high ridges changing, and the fog was shrouded, which was unsettling.

"Don't panic, I have been here since I was a child, and the mountains have always been like this, although it seems to be dangerous, but in fact there is no danger, you can pass with confidence." Xue Ne said loudly to everyone, and walked to the front first. Action was the best encouragement, and the soldiers, led by Xue Ne, continued to set out, lined up in a line, and climbed the mountain along the sheep's intestine path in the mountains. About an hour or so, a sudden strong wind blew away the clouds, and everyone was on the top of the mountain at some point, and the scenery below the mountain was unobstructed. Looking down, Jiangzhou Wanquan City stands on the field, and it seems to be close at hand.

If it is expected to be good, this place will become a place to fight to the death with Shi Yuannian, Xue Ne sighed softly, and secretly prayed that the wind at that time would be towards him, otherwise once the Mobei cavalry broke through here, the two saints and the two capitals would really be stormy, and the Tang Dynasty would be in danger.
