8 The light wind rises and the blood river spreads over the east (below)
Bai Fu saw Bai Lang's hesitation, and took the initiative to ask, "Young Master, let me go." www.biquge.info I took a detour to the front, lurked on Yu Lian's way back, and quietly killed him. ”
Bai Lang shook his head, "How can it be so easy, if he wants to escape, you can't keep him." Bai Lang thought for a moment and said resolutely: "Let's go, let's go see Piqu." ”
Bai Fu was shocked, "Young Master, do you want to release Piqu?" That's a big no-no! ”
"It's okay, it's better to be taboo than to be in trouble, the Lord will understand. Of course, he alone can't do it, you always wait for the opportunity to ・・・・・・, and afterwards, whether it is successful or not, you must immediately inform me of the result. Bai Fu nodded in response.
Later, in the military aircraft hall, Bai Lang sat high and looked at Pi Qu under the steps, "Governor Pi, we won't talk nonsense." Now there's a chance to get away with it, and it's up to you to take it. ”
Piqu laughed self-deprecatingly, "Hey, exonerate? Does Fu Bohou think that I am still a three-year-old urchin? Losing the entire territory of Zhaozhou, no matter how big the chance, it is useless. Don't comfort me, I'm already disheartened when I return to Zhongzhou with my guilt this time. It just so happens that in the future, it is not impossible to concentrate on cultivation in the future, no longer covet power, and take a step forward in skill. "Spirits are scarce, and Pi Qu decided that Zhong Kang would not kill him, so it was a big deal to get his official position to the end.
Bai Lang said inducingly: "What if you can recapture Zhaozhou? ”
Pi Qu was shocked, and then laughed, "Don't be joking, it will be difficult to recapture Zhaozhou." ”
Bai Lang motioned to invite Zhu Neng and Qin Ming, the governors under the original Piqu, to come in. When the two of them came to the hall, Bai Lang said, "You two will tell Governor Pi about the battle arrangements for tonight. ”
Zhu Neng and Qin Ming glanced at each other, this is not quite in line with the rules, Pi Qu has stepped down, and it stands to reason that he should not tell military secrets. The two of them didn't dare to speak, and looked at Bai Lang and Pi Qu suspiciously.
Bai Lang smiled and said, "I asked Governor Pi to help me take a closer look, and I asked you to say it." Rest assured, you have not violated military discipline. ”
Only then did the two explain in detail to their old boss the battle arrangements for tonight and the possible results. Pi Qu heard Fei Se Wu and applauded, "Good, good." That's the fuck. Malegobi, for more than a year, I have been miserably by them. ”
Bai Lang waited for the two to finish speaking, waved them to prepare themselves, and then asked Pi Qu, "Governor Pi, do you think you can win this battle?" ”
Pi Qu reacted at this time, the supreme commander was no longer himself, and the expression of envy and jealousy jumped on his face, "Even if you win, what if you win, just a battle, can An change the overall situation?" ”
Bai Lang smiled: "What if Yu Lian is also in the opponent's forward battalion?" ”
Pi Qu stood up in an uproar, his lips trembled with excitement, and he sat down again for a long time. “
"You can't drown, but you can kill. As soon as the Yingzhou forward collapsed, Yu Lian would inevitably flee. If there is a spiritual priest who lies in ambush on his retreat and takes advantage of his unpreparedness to make a sneak attack, ・・・・・・" Bai Lang deliberately said that he would generally stay and let Pi Qu replenish it himself.
As the governor, Pi Qu still has this intelligence, "Are you going to let me ambush Yu Lian?" “
"Hehe, it's up to Governor Pi to be willing or not. You know, my roots are in Huaizhou, and I don't want to stay here for long. If you can kill Yu Lian, I will send the Flying Eagle to the master and recommend you to regain your strength and recover Zhaozhou. “
Pi Qu trembled with excitement, and his voice couldn't help but rise many degrees, "Is this true?" “
"Naturally, how could I be joking about such a big thing." Bai Lang said very seriously.
"It's done!" Pi Qu, who was anxious to make meritorious contributions, discussed with Bai Lang for a while and got Bai Lang's promise, and the birds shot out of the dragon and tiger pass and disappeared between the dark and reckless mountains. Bai Lang immediately ordered Zhu Neng and Qin Ming to gather troops and set out half an hour in advance. Waiting for the generals to leave, Bai Fu and a few elite guards also quietly left the Dragon and Tiger Pass.
At seven o'clock in the morning, the sky was already bright, Bai Lang boarded the raft that had been prepared long ago, and took the Zhongzhou reinforcements down the river. In the distance, you can see the flames rising and the flood raging. At nearly nine o'clock, Bai Lang led the Zhongzhou reinforcements to the location of He Tao's army.
The war was nearing its end, and as far as the eye could see, floating corpses were all over the river, red water was churning, and this section of the Dongjiang River had completely turned into a river of blood. The red-eyed Zhao Zhoujun intentionally or unintentionally forgot the practice of capturing prisoners as slaves and left nothing alive.
Looking at the generals Zhu Neng and Qin Ming who came to greet him, Bai Lang frowned and asked, "You slaughtered tens of thousands of people in two hours?" Zhu Neng clasped his fists and saluted: "Back to Bai Shuai, most of the Yingzhou army was drowned. When we arrived, the river was densely packed with floating corpses of people and animals. When it is the poison of the pill camp, I heard that if you drink it, your hands and feet will be sore. The Yingzhou army was driven to the river by the fire, and it was suddenly flooded, and it was almost impossible not to choke on a few mouthfuls of water. If you are poisoned in the water, the consequences can be imagined. I ordered the army to do all its best to capture those who were still desperately tossing and searching. However, the rabbit cubs said that they were beware of the enemy's death, so they broke out and hurt people, so they made up for it regardless of whether they were dead or alive. Thousands of people cut it all the way, and that's it. If your subordinates are guilty, please punish the commander. ”
Bai Lang estimated that Zhu Neng's real order was to beware of the enemy's death, and cut all the way through. laughed and scolded: "Okay, okay, pretend." Have all the Zhaozhou comrades in the search for remnants, the pursuit of deserters, and the rescue of prisoner of war camps been arranged? "It's not just the soldiers who are fed up with grievances, Zhu Neng and other generals are even worse, once they vent, how can they keep their hands. Under the great victory, it cannot be punished and hurts the morale of the army.
Zhu Neng and Qin Ming replied loudly: "It's arranged." ”
"Are there any traces of high-ranking enemy generals?"
"I haven't had time to make it out yet."
"There is no urgency in this matter, order all departments to select the main elite to continue to advance, expand the search and pursuit area, be sure to destroy all the remnants of the enemy, and not let a single person go. Everyone else participated in cleaning up the battlefield and then camped in the field. Then he whispered to Zhu Neng and Qin Ming: "Governor Pi rushed to the rear of the enemy army before the battle and ambushed Yu Lian. Let us wait for the good news of Governor Pi. ”
"Yes!" The generals replied in unison, especially loudly. The camp in Yingzhou here was first burned and then flooded, and it was completely unusable. The army was mighty, on rafts, and poured downstream with the river of blood.
A mountain depression thirty miles away from Bailang, the retreat of the Yingzhou army must pass. Piqu hid in a large tree beside the road, staring with bated breath at the way he came. Before long, the sound of hurried hooves came from far and near. Listening to the voice, there are not many people coming, only three horses. The sound of hooves was getting closer and closer, and slowly, Pi Qu clearly saw the face of the person who came, and it was Yu Lian who was the first one. The latter two are He Tao and Chen Xu, who make Pi Qu grit his teeth and hate.
Pi Qu quietly gathered his strength and clenched the long knife in his hand. When Yu Lian approached a distance of about three zhang, he suddenly bounced down, slashed hard in the air, and slashed at Yu Lian.
The three of them fled quickly, Yu Lian and He Tao were saddened by the death of the army, and their attention was not here. On the contrary, Chen Xu, who had the lowest skill and fell last, reacted the fastest and exclaimed. Chen Xu's exclamation saved Yu Lian, who suddenly raised his head, from the tragedy of being stabbed in half, and it was too late to draw the knife in a hurry, his body leaned back, his toes made a force, and he jumped backwards. Well, Piqu's knife directly split the galloping horse in two. The spiritual power released from the tip of the knife grazed Yu Lian's helmet and slashed him in the shoulder. Fortunately, when the good thing happened, his guards forcibly helped Yu Lian put on the armor, otherwise this knife could at least cut off one of Yu Lian's arms.
The fierce battle between the two great spirits suddenly broke out, and the spiritual power released from the outside shone like lightning from time to time, the surrounding branches broke and the trees were broken, the sand and rocks were scattered, and the sparks were splashed everywhere, and the flying gravel dust, stumps and leaves were stirred by the agitated air current, forming a smoke cloud covering a radius of dozens of meters, so that it was impossible to see the figures of the two warring sides in the center of the battlefield, only to see the brilliance shining endlessly. Listening to the momentum, it seems that dozens or hundreds of people are fighting.
The embarrassed He Tao and Chen Xu fled the war zone in a row. The fierce battle between the spirits, they could not intervene. I could only flee to the side and watch from afar.
There was a loud bang, and a figure shot out from the left and right of the smoke cloud, each of them rolled for more than ten meters to stabilize their figures, both of them had scattered sideburns, ragged clothes, and bloodstains, and they couldn't see their original appearance clearly. Breathing heavily, after a little breathing, the man on the left screamed: "Yu Lian, you also have today!" For three years, millions of unjust souls in Zhaozhou have been waiting for you, have you seen it?! At the end of the shout, his voice was hoarse and poignant.
The man on the right was dismissive, "Bah, how despicable it is to be a spiritual warrior in vain and to carry out a sneak attack." Piqu, what kind of hero are you. ”
Pi Qu was dumbfounded when he heard this, "Yu Lian, you also have the face to say despicable." In the past three years, sneak attacks, ambushes, poisoning, digging pits, arson, releasing water, divisiveness, rumor-mongering, and extreme cunning are all righteous. It's embarrassing to mention heroes, shameless. ”・・・・・・。
The two of them fought hard for a long time just now, exhausted their true qi, and both were defeated, and they were no longer able to fight, so they had to fight with each other. "Piqu, I've never seen you so anxious to send the governor to death, and you dare to ambush me without a single personal guard. Okay, it's time to end, although He Tao was injured by your sneak attack, but now sending you on the road should be handy. Haha, Piqu, go with your millions of souls. He Tao~, He Tao~, Chen Xu. Yu Lian shouted loudly for the two men he rescued, but the two who had been hiding on the side were silent and nowhere to be seen.
Pi Qu, who was originally frightened, laughed, "Yu Dashuai, it seems that your General He Da fled for his life." Interesting, haha, there is... The voice snapped off, and a flying knife flew from nowhere, hitting Piqu's throat accurately. Before Yu Lian could speak, he felt a cold vest, and the sharp tip of the knife passed through his heart and emerged from his chest. The two men did not see the face of their attacker until they died. A fresh breeze swept by, and the mountains were silent again.
"Report!" A squad leader named Luo Yi of the Bailang Personal Guard shouted loudly.
Bai Lang's expression moved, "Report it." ”
Luo Yi shouted loudly: "The guards have captured two enemy generals in front. It was identified that it should be the enemy striker general He Tao and his auxiliary general Chen Xu. At this time, Bai Fu quietly appeared beside Bai Lang and said: "Pi and Yu 'die together'." Bai Lang was overjoyed, "Okay, good wow." Luo Yi, take credit to you. Come and gather to discuss. Haha, it looks like this battle has just begun. ”
Bai Lang's military tent, the generals of the battalions who came to hear the news were lined up on the left and right. Seeing that the people were basically there, especially the former Zhaozhou officers, Bai Lang motioned to Luo Yi to narrate the capture of He Tao and Chen Xu. Luo Yi bowed down and reported, "I took a personal guard team to track and kill the enemy. In a mountain col about ten miles ahead, Chen Xu and He Tao were found to be scattered and fled on foot. ・・・・・・。 "What he said was actually made up by Bai Fu." Unfortunately, when they found the roadside, they found Yu Lian's body and the body of Governor Pi. Depending on the situation, the two should be fighting and ending up together. “
Bai Lang slapped the handsome case and exclaimed, "What did you say? Has Governor Pi fallen? “
Luo Yi lowered his head and said sadly: "Yes, Dashuai." “
All the generals changed color, and Qin Ming asked in a trembling voice, "Where is Pi Shuai's body?" “
Luo Yi shouted outside the tent, and two guards walked in carrying a simple stretcher. Bai Lang trembled his hands and lifted a rag covering it, who was Pi Qu who was not dead and did not close his eyes. There was a long sword stuck in Piqu's throat, it was Yu Lian's saber, and the original dagger was gone.
Bai Lang shouted in a mournful voice: "Brother Pi, you, why are you gone, the immortal?" Let's regain Zhaozhou together. “
The generals were even more mournful.
Bai Lang suddenly pulled out the long sword with force, and with a force with both hands, he snapped, and the expensive spirit weapon-level long sword broke in response, "Brother Pi, if I don't recover Zhaozhou, I have such a sword." The generals, Pi Shuai sacrificed his life for the country and died tragically to the enemy. Who is willing to join me in counterattacking Zhaozhou and avenge Governor Pi! “
Roar, the generals howled, "Counterattack Zhaozhou, behead the enemy, and avenge Pi Shuai." Counteroffensive ・・・・・・. “
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"How is that possible!" The bigwigs from all sides were all surprised and lost their voices, "Rumors, right? "It shouldn't be." "Have you ever snooped for sure?" "It's unimaginable." "If Yu Lian wants to leave, can't he stay just by Piqu? Will they perish with them? ”・・・・・・。 All kinds of doubts and puzzles cannot change the fait accompli.
The big people who are qualified to hear it for the first time are all the same reaction, and it is unbelievable.
Zhongkang sent Bailang to replace Piqu, which was to abandon Zhaozhou and defend the Dragon and Tiger Pass. In other words, as long as the Dragon and Tiger Pass is not lost, Zhongzhou can still survive. As for the victory or defeat of the battle in front of the pass, it has nothing to do with the overall situation. To everyone's surprise, Yu Lian drove to the front line without saying anything, and died with Piqu. As a result, the battle situation in Zhaozhou suddenly turned around. As a result, the major forces that had been prepared to deal with the new situation in advance were suddenly caught off guard.
"Can you guarantee that the message is accurate? You should know that if you get it wrong, the consequences are unimaginable. A tall, ruddy-faced old man asked sharply. The strong man in black who was bent down and stood solemnly replied, "My subordinates can guarantee it!" Because the follow-up news kept coming. On the day of the incident, Bai Lang used the news of Piqu's death to stimulate the revenge of the remnants of the original Zhaozhou. After slaughtering He Tao's forward army, he hardly took a break, and quickly divided his troops into three routes. Zhu Neng and Qin Ming each led the Zhaozhou army, and Bai Lang commanded the Zhongzhou reinforcements, respectively attacking the Zhaozhou counties east of Longhu Mountain. According to the secret agent flying letter received recently, the Zhongzhou army is uncontrollable, and it has become a trend of destruction and decay, and the means are ruthless, especially the second army of Zhu and Qin, which almost does not leave a living mouth, and the ground in Shandong is bleeding. ”
The old man twisted his hair and thought, and after a moment, he immediately ordered: "First, all the arrangements made in Zhongzhou and Huizhou before will be terminated immediately. Second, ask the third child to go to Jiangzhou to discuss follow-up matters with Ran Yi. Third, in the name of the Chamber of Commerce, a letter was sent to Shen, Tao, Shi, etc., saying that the annual meeting was advanced and that the directors were invited to rush to Huizhou within a month. The strong man in black answered the order, turned on his horse, and galloped out of the compound in a hurry. At the gate of the courtyard behind him, there are two big yellow characters - Yunfu. (In order of color, purple is honorable, mostly the color of fairy clothes, the royal wears red, the throne wears orange, the duke wears yellow, the marquis is pure green, the earl is blue, the viscount is blue, and the baron is white.) The public is not allowed to wear the above solid color clothing, mostly gray, black or variegated. )
Not only the Yun family, but also the messengers from high-ranking families all over Dongzhou suddenly became frequent, and there were undercurrents surging everywhere. Cheng Yao of Dixian Village rode on a huge golden-eyed eagle that was not easy to use, and flew to Youzhou. At the same time, Jing Ming, who was watching the battle in Yuzhou, also hurried to Youzhou.
