As Yun Yuhong expected, Ruifeng reinforcements arrived in Jiangcheng three days later, and joined forces with the Jiangcheng defenders with 500,000 troops, blocking the way of Moyun's army.

Wang Botao is an old man in his sixties, his hair is gray, but he is very energetic, his voice is like a bell, and he is very proficient in warfare. More than 30 years ago, that is, when Mo Yun's previous monarch was alive, he also did some resistance to the oppression of the four countries, and there were many big and small battles with the four countries, and they were all victories and defeats, but they did not let these four countries attack the past, but only under this Wang Botao did not win a game, so he fell into the name of an undefeated general. Later, when Qianzong succeeded to the throne, the battle was less, and Wang Botao had no chance to play, and in the next few years, the princes grew up, and the monarch of Ruifeng intended to train his sons, so he asked Wang Botao to teach several princes until the princes could take charge alone.

This time, the monarch of Ruifeng is not only saddened by the death of the three princes, but has realized that the situation is critical, the border city has been lost, and the gate of Ruifeng has been opened.

General Wang Lao saw the form in front of him very thoroughly, the ghost king's soldiers were divided into three routes, intended to besiege Xiangcheng, but the other two armies were only auxiliary, and the army led by the ghost king himself was the main force. Those two armies were intended to distract him, and only if the Ghost King's army was repulsed, the other two would naturally withdraw. Therefore, he ordered General Yao, the chief general of the Jiangcheng garrison, to lead his troops to guard the rear, and he personally led his troops to meet the Ghost King.

Yun Yuhong's march is very slow now, and the next is a tough battle, her men only have 200,000 horses, but they have to face an army of 500,000, if there is no good strategy to win, it will be very bad to drag it down, but how to move, she has not thought about it for a long time, if she wants to win, she has to keep the 200,000 army behind her as much as possible, it is really embarrassing!

Therefore, when the army came to Jiangcheng City, Yun Yuhong only ordered to retreat and camp for a hundred miles, but did not take the initiative to attack, while making people strictly defend, while letting the army repair, but did not take the slightest action. The eldest prince waited very anxiously, and asked Yun Yuhong: "Sister Great Emperor, why are we just staying, but we don't do anything, even if we fight with the Ruifeng Army to try the depth!" ”

Yun Yuhong sighed and said: "The country is easy to change, but the nature is difficult to change!" I thought your temperament had become a little more stable, but I couldn't hold my breath like this. We are playing against the Ruifeng Army to test their depth, but at the same time they are also testing us, and it is very unwise to show the cards in their hands before they are sure. ”

The eldest prince was stunned for a moment, nodded, but still asked, "Then we just don't do anything?" ”

Yun Yuhong raised her eyebrows, "Then what do you want to do?" ”

The eldest prince choked and stopped talking.

A general came in and reported: "Ghost King, the Ruifeng army has come to call for battle, are we going out to meet the enemy?" ”

The eldest prince jumped up again and said, "Sister the eldest emperor, you send me!" ”

Yun Yuhong glanced at him coldly, "You'd better stay honest, otherwise I will deal with it by military law." ”

Yun Yuhong said to the general: "Go and gather 10,000 elite soldiers, 5,000 guards, and go out with me to meet the enemy in a quarter of an hour." ”

The general was stunned for a moment, answered yes, turned around and went out to prepare.

The eldest prince asked, "Sister the eldest emperor, what are you doing with the guards out?" "The people of the Guards are all elite soldiers in a million, they are masters of martial arts, and they have to be carefully cultivated by Yun Yuhong, each person knows four or five skills, which is very expensive, and the daily main thing is to protect important people, or to find out the news, and it is a bit of a waste to fight on the battlefield.

Yun Yuhong's expression had a hint of solemnity, and she said lightly: "What's strange, if you are a soldier, you have to fight, and they are naturally no exception." ”

Yun Yuhong took out the mask of the ghost king and put it on, and walked out of the military tent, outside, 15,000 men and horses were ready, Yun Yuhong said loudly: "Soldiers, you go out with me to meet the battle today, and vow to kill all the enemy troops, and we will kill the Ruifeng army without leaving a piece of armor." ”

All the soldiers shouted in unison: "Kill the Ruifeng Army and leave no armor." ”

Yun Yuhong shouted: "Okay, kill with me!" After speaking, he turned over and got on his horse and rushed to the front with the team murderously.

Wang Botao's battle was originally to explore the truth and fiction. People say how powerful and brave the ghost king's army is, but they have only heard of it, and they have not seen it with their own eyes, so the purpose of this first battle Wang Botao is to try it, see the combat power of the ghost king's army, and touch the routine of the ghost king leading the troops.

Of course, if he can win the first battle, it is very important for the morale of the army, so Wang Botao dispatched 100,000 troops in the first battle, and he will definitely win this first battle.

It's just that when he saw that the team that killed the front was less than 20,000 horses, he was very puzzled, and then he thought, this is not the ghost king's strategy, she used such a few people to fight against an army of 100,000, this is the same as hitting an egg against a stone, no one with a little brain will do this, the ghost king is not stupid, he must have a deep meaning in doing so.

Facing Yun Yuhong, Wang Botao shouted: "The other side is the ghost king, is Mo Yun no one, let you bring such a little people to death?" ”

Yun Yuhong said lightly: "Such a little person? Very little, I think it's enough for your 100,000 people. ”

Doubts flashed in Wang Botao's heart, and he warned himself that he must be careful, but he said: "Then don't talk nonsense, let's see the real chapter under our hands!" ”

Yun Yuhong was not polite, waved his hand, and shouted: "Show Ruifeng the combat strength of our army, kill!" ”

The soldiers and horses of the two armies were quickly intertwined, and the Ruifeng Army, who originally thought that it was just a try, found that things were different from what they thought, and the Mo Yunjun could be said to be desperate, not to look at the small number of people, but all of them were strong in martial arts, and their lethality was very amazing.

Wang Botao was old, and he didn't fight by himself, but took the opportunity to stand in the rear, watching the battle between the two armies from a distance, and he regretted it after a while, although the Ruifeng army had a large number, but it did not mobilize the momentum in advance, and the killing intent was insufficient, and it fell behind at the beginning.

The battlefield continued to rush and kill, and the Ruifeng army still held its ground despite the numerical advantage. Although the soldiers of the two armies are interspersed together, the general formation will not be chaotic, and Yun Yuhong is naturally surrounded by his own soldiers. It's just that the expressions on the faces of the soldiers are a little weird, it's so cool to fight with the ghost king, the ghost king holds a sword in one hand, and throws it out, they kill one person with one move, and the ghost king can kill more than a dozen people with one move, it's really invincible. They were able to quickly push forward after the Ghost King, like a sword inserted into the enemy camp, and Yun Yuhong was the tip of the sword. They don't have to worry too much about their own safety, because the main offensive is blocked by Yun Yuhong, all they have to do is to wave the weapons in their hands, keep making moves, and keep harvesting the lives of the enemy.

Wang Botao looked at it for a while and secretly said that it was not good, the ghost king didn't seem to use any schemes, she just led the troops to fight simply, because with their combat strength, it was enough to deal with his soldiers. The Ghost King's army is worthy of its name, and its combat power is really amazing, 100,000 horses, how huge it is, but the speed at which Ruifeng's soldiers fall is also the fastest. It was less than an hour, and according to his estimate, nearly 50,000 people should have fallen, half of whom had folded in, and after a while none of them would have returned.

Wang Botao ordered: "Hurry, collect the troops!" ”

The gong sounded behind Ruifeng, and many soldiers retreated, but they wanted to go, but the Ghost King Army did not necessarily agree, I don't know when, the Ghost King Army had passed through Ruifeng's military formation, came to the rear, and stopped the soldiers who wanted to retreat, and the Ghost King's order was not to stay, then they would definitely not let go of a person.

Ruifeng's signal to collect troops has been issued for a while, but no one can come back, Wang Botao saw that the situation was not good, and knew that the ghost king did not plan to let go of their men and horses to come back, but he could not save the soldiers who were still alive, even if the soldiers could not be recovered, then send someone to rescue, so he ordered another 100,000 soldiers and horses to kill in front of the battle to respond, and then, another round of fighting began.

This battle was fought until the sun turned west, and less than half of the soldiers of the Ghost King Army were left, so Yun Yuhong retreated with people. After a day of fighting, Yun Yuhong was covered in blood, even if she couldn't look red in ink clothes, but every step she took, there was a strong smell of blood, rows of blood spots dripped from the hem of her clothes, leaving a string of blood-colored footprints on the ground, and 10,000 elites went out, but the number of people who came back was less than 5,000, and many of these people were also seriously injured. The battle was fought fiercely, but it was also heroic. Ruifeng has invested 200,000 troops, less than 100,000 can go back, and Moyun has been 10,000 people, leaving the lives of 100,000 horses and horses in Ruifeng, and the original gap of 200,000 to 500,000 has now narrowed to 200,000 to 400,000.

The eldest prince and the little prince hurriedly greeted them, and the little prince went to pull Yun Yuhong and asked, "Sister the eldest emperor, how are you, are you injured?" ”

Yun Yuhong dodged sideways and said, "Don't touch it, there is too much blood on your body, which will stain you." I'm fine, you go ahead and clean up the battlefield and treat the wounded, I'll go wash and come. ”

Yun Yuhong turned around and entered his sleeping tent, took off his clothes, there were already many wounds on his body, Yun Yuhong said secretly: "Fortunately, they are all skin injuries, but I lost a lot of blood, I don't know how to make up for it." It was a mistake not to bring the atractylodes. Fortunately, this battle should let Ruifeng stop for a few days, and I hope that both sides can go well. ”

And in Jiangcheng, Wang Botao, who was sitting in the conference hall, frowned, the combat power of the Ghost King Army was too unexpected for him, originally the people had an advantage in military strength, but in terms of the combat power of the Ghost King Army, I am afraid that it may not be. Originally, I wanted to take the initiative to attack, but now I want to change my tactics and focus on defense? The ghost king's tactics today are also a little strange, is there any conspiracy in this, the ghost king is really unpredictable, it is better to be cautious.
