In the desperate rush of the Jin people, it was not until night fell that the defense line was finally broken. In the darkness, it was impossible to see who was the Dahong soldier and who was the golden man, so the two sides retreated one after another, waiting for the dawn of the next day to fight again.

There are only 1,500 people left here.

And the Jin people on the other side of the valley are tens of thousands of people.

The soldiers in the darkness were not sleepy, and they took advantage of the darkness to build several bunkers out of stones, hoping to avoid the rain of arrows the next day. A soldier rested his tired body against the root of a tree, took a few breaths, and whispered, "I don't know if reinforcements will come." ”

His companions were so tired that they didn't make a sound. But a slender man walked by him, and said lightly: "It will come." ”

"Prince, His Royal Highness the Prince!" The soldier quickly stood up and was about to kneel and kowtow.

Li Cong had already held his arm to stop him from falling, and said softly: "Now you and I are comrades, there is no need to obey these false courtesies. ”

The soldier's heart was hot, and he stood silently straight.

"Are you afraid?" Li Cong continued.

"Back to Your Highness, I'm not afraid." Another soldier also approached and replied.

Li Cong laughed.

He rarely smiled, but now he smiled naturally and wantonly, his long-frowning brows stretched, patted the soldier's shoulder, and said gently: "How can you not be afraid, this palace is afraid to death." ”

The soldier smiled wryly, in acknowledgment.

"I'm afraid that I'm going to die like this, and I won't be able to eat the flax cakes in the capital anymore, and I won't be able to see the people I want to see."

"Your Highness likes flax cakes, that's what my father-in-law's family does." Another soldier came up, and when he saw him talking and laughing here, he said boldly.

"yes." Li Cong looked up at the stars in the sky and said lightly: "The first tooth I lost when I was a child in this palace was from eating flax cakes. I don't know if I bought it at your father-in-law's house. ”

The jokers were stunned when they heard this, and everyone was already laughing.

Li Cong also laughed, and after laughing, he said with a cold expression: "There should be a cannon tonight." When the cannon sounded, the tent of the Jin barracks was in chaos. They will divide a lot of troops to deal with our main force, and tomorrow we still need to fight to the death, so that the Jin people have no time to care about each other, and we can win a big victory. ”

They didn't expect the prince to chat with them, let alone reveal important military information. For a while, everyone's faces were solemn, and they all nodded yes.

Then, let's wait for tonight's cannon fire.

……

"Take General Chen's order!" The commander of the artillery battalion in Wang Ran's army said: "The fifth platoon of artillery is aimed at the golden tent!" ”

As soon as the order was given, the artillerymen pushed up heavy bubbles of fire in groups of three, illuminating the golden battalion in the distance. Wang Ran stood not far away, watching this scene coldly.

He had already brought the artillery battalion here to join the army according to Chen Chong's instructions, or it would not be long before the artillery would not go off, and he would be punished by Chen Chong. But that doesn't matter, he will definitely compensate him for the future when the regent succeeds to the throne.

The Dahong soldiers not far away stood quietly, waiting for the Jin people's camp to be in chaos so that they could take the opportunity to kill the Jin soldiers.

The artillery was clumsily lined up in several rows, and a row of torches in the artillery battalion fell into the hands of point artillerymen. They approached the cannon and put their torches under the barrel to light the fuse.

A huge sound of "knock ......" sounded in the night sky, and the warhead flew out of the barrel and fell towards the Jinren tent in the distance.

The corners of Wang Ran's mouth showed a contemptuous smile.

The cannon will fire, but the fuse ignited by the warhead has been cut and will not explode. These dumb bombs not only can't kill the golden man, but even become a laughing stock.

Wang Ran looked into the distance, but his smile suddenly froze on his face.

"Smack! Bang Bang Bang! "The warheads exploded one by one, and the camp of the golden people was ablaze.

It's - what's going on?

"General Wang." A dagger stopped under Wang Ran's neck, "I wish you a good journey." ”
