Volume XII, Chapter 11

After Yingxue disarmed Zhao Yuekuo and others, Yingxue did not embarrass him, and walked to the surrendering army and said to Zhao Yuekuo: "General Zhao, you are an admirable general, and Marshal Wang Zhuo admires you very much. Now you also know the situation in the border country, you can't be alone, now that the general trend has gone, I hope you can submit to Marshal Wang, I don't know what General Zhao's opinion is, please General Zhao think about it!"

"How can the general of the defeated army be brave, it is impossible for me to surrender, if you want to kill or chop, whatever you want!" Zhao Yuechun said with righteousness.

"General Zhao is really a tough guy, I know that General Zhao lost this battle, and your reinforcements are coming, and we don't want to be too strong, so let's do it, I allow you to lead five subordinates to leave, and we will fight again next time." Please take care of yourself!" Yingxue's words made Zhao Yuechun inexplicable, whether the person in front of him was sick, and he was willing to let himself go.

Zhao Yuekuo was confused, his subordinates were ecstatic, they all thought that they must have a glimmer of life this time, because Zhao Yuekuo usually treats them well, and these escapes will definitely take him with him, Zhao Yuekuo has not yet realized that he has fallen into the trap of Eagle Snow!

Seeing this, Ying Xue ordered Xie Hao to take the guards to arrange for Zhao Yuekuo and the other six to rest in the city, and told Zhao Yuekuo to send them away early tomorrow morning and never break his promise. Now that Zhao Yuekuo has anything to find fault with, it is already a blessing to be able not to die, so he had to follow Yingxue's arrangement, and Xie Hao led him to the city to rest.

After Zhao Yuekuo left, Ying Xue said to the remaining descendants: "It seems. If you are willing to surrender to Marshal Wang Zhuo, and if you are willing to make meritorious contributions. I promise that Marshal Wang will definitely use you again, I don't know what you think!"

Several generals were still a little hesitant. Seeing this, Ying Xue knew that they were all moved, so she continued: "Marshal Wang's method of employing people, I believe you have also heard of it, he is absolutely not guilty of the past, as long as you can make meritorious contributions, I guarantee that you will definitely be able to be reinstated, there is only one chance, everyone make a decision quickly!"

"Okay, we are willing to submit to Marshal Wang!" the generals saw this. If you pretend to be any longer, it will be meaningless, now you are not a fragrant glutton, even the main general has abandoned himself, what else can he do if he does not surrender, people do not do it, heaven and earth will be destroyed, and he will not let others kill him, but also have to find a way out for himself.

"Good. A few of you immediately took Zhao Yuekuo's token, and cooperated with the three generals Liu Linfeng, Zheng Ti, and Zeng Zhaoli to defraud each city, before dawn. Before you reach the critical level, I don't mean to embarrass you, there are a total of five cities between the saucer level and the critical level. However, these five cities were poorly defended and had few garrisons. It's not vulnerable at all, and you still have Zhao Yuekuo's token in hand. I don't think it will be difficult to reach the threshold before dawn, and I'm sure you can do it. If you encounter anyone who resists or refuses to cooperate, don't make a mistake!" "Ying Xue This is equivalent to having given a kill order, because it is impossible for any of the guards in the city to surrender, but Ying Xue thinks that the opportunity cannot be lost, the soldiers are fast, although the order is too cruel, but there is no way, the troops must be immediately advanced to the critical pass.

"Yes! Guarantee to complete the task!" Liu Linfeng and the others said confidently. Seeing that Liu Linfeng and the others were so confident, those generals also established confidence, because the entire Saucer Pass was attacked so quickly in less than two hours, and those five small cities should not be worried, not to mention that there was an army of nearly 100,000 people behind.

Yingxue confessed to Ma or a few words, and asked him to renovate the wall city overnight and restore the defensive measures, Ma Or immediately went busy with his affairs after hearing this, Yingxue left Yang Yuhai and Xie Hao behind, guarding Zhao Yuekuo and other six people, and repeatedly told the two of them that they must watch Zhao Yuekuo and the six people, and tomorrow morning, they can be released from the saucer pass, but be careful that they escape at night, Yang Yuhai and Xie Hao hurriedly promised that they would never go on a business trip. After Ying Xue arranged it a little, she took the dragon and Xiao Tian and the special attack team to go with Liu Linfeng and the others.

Yingxue's intelligence is really not wrong, the defense of these small cities is simply not comparable to them, and there is Zhao Yuekuo's token in hand, fake Zhao Yuekuo's order, the saucer pass was attacked, and they were asked to go to the rescue immediately, the situation was urgent without delay, and they also wanted the soldiers guarding the city to open the city gate, so that they rushed to the next city for help, seeing that it was Zhao Yuekuo's order, where did the generals who defended the city dare to disobey, they all obediently opened the city gate, and then, Yingxue suddenly led the special attack team to suddenly kill together, where would the soldiers defending the city think of being suddenly killed by the enemy, and they were immediately caught off guard, and Liu Linfeng and others responded in the back, seeing that Yingxue had already startedAs soon as Yingxue and others entered the city, they did not stay, but left Zheng Ti to clean up in the city, and they took Liu Linfeng and Zeng Zhaoli to the next city immediately, and at the same time told Zheng Ti that as soon as the matter in the city was over, he immediately led the troops to chase them, and he didn't need to pay attention to any of the qiē in the city, so it didn't matter if only one undefended city was left, the important thing was that he must immediately meet with them and clear the remnants of the next city。

Under Ying Xue's tricks and offensive, Yi Qiē was as Ying Xue expected, before dawn, they had reached the critical pass, Ying Xue saw that they had achieved their goal, and after a whole night of running, everyone was also very tired, so they ordered the troops to stop and repair. At the same time, after meeting with Zheng Ti, he ordered Zheng Ti to send people back to take over the five cities that had been occupied, although Ying Xue left the five cities empty, but when Zheng Ti was cleaning up behind, he took advantage of Ying Xue's intentions, and regardless of whether the soldiers in the city were willing or not, he actually let those soldiers who surrendered to garrison the city, but he did not leave a person to garrison the city, Zheng Ti's move can be much unexpected by these soldiers. However, the soldiers surrendered like this, and the soldiers thought that Zheng Ti believed them like this. It strengthened the determination to submit to obedience, without being guarded. But no one fled.

And Yang Yuhai and Xie Hao followed Yingxue's orders. After dawn, after arranging for Zhao Yuekuo and other six people to finish breakfast, they let the six of them leave, and half an hour later, they took more than 10,000 of their own, bid farewell to Ma Or, and marched towards the critical pass, ready to pick up Yingxue.

Zhao Yuekuo and other six people traveled all the way. Only then did he realize that the five cities he was stationed in had been occupied by Yingxue overnight, and then he suddenly woke up and fell into Yingxue's position, but what kind of method Yingxue used to be able to take down all the cities overnight, this Zhao Yuekuo couldn't figure it out, but it didn't matter if he didn't understand. Because Yingxue and the guards have already come to pick him up in person.

"General Zhao was fine last night, he wasn't disturbed along the way, I know that the general wants to go back now. I won't stay long, let's come to Japan for a long time, general, please go back to the critical pass! There was no room for maneuver for Zhao Yuekuo and others.

After Zhao Yuekuo and the other six people heard this, they knew that Yingxue had already issued an eviction order. I had to let out a long sigh and glanced at Yingxue with mixed feelings. went out of the city gate, Yingxue was also sent to the city gate, and waved goodbye to Zhao Yuekuo and other six people who were far away, like old friends, Zhao Yuekuo saw that Yingxue was so honest, so he had to wave his hand to express his gratitude to Yingxue for her grace of not killing.

As soon as Jiang Dingshan heard that he had the opportunity to make meritorious contributions, he immediately sent someone to open the city gate and took Zhao Yuekuo and others into the city.

It turned out that Jiang Dingshan had always had an old grudge with Zhao Yuekuo, and this time he grabbed Zhao Yuekuo with such a big handle, where could he let go of such a good opportunity, with his original intention, he immediately wanted to kill Zhao Yuekuo and others, but he thought about it, and the matter was still pushed to the current king to adjudicate, after all, Zhao Yuekuo was his most trusted general, and if he took the liberty of killing him, wouldn't it be self-inflicted.

After Zhao Yuechun was put in a cell by Jiang Dingshan, he calmed down completely, he felt that something was wrong last night, but because he had just lost the battle, his mind was full of thinking about the reasons for his failure, summing up the experience of failure, of course, his thinking was a little disordered, and he didn't think about it so long-term at all. Now that he has come to his senses, he has carefully thought about the cause and effect of the matter, and only then did he find that he had been played by the middle-aged general of the enemy, first he stabilized himself, but he deceived all his cities overnight, and although he nominally let himself go, in fact, he got rid of himself by Jiang Dingshan's hand, and what made him even more discouraged was that Ying Xue asked him to escape with five henchmen, so the other soldiers would inevitably think that they were not his Zhao Yuekuo's henchmen, so that Ying Xue could disintegrate the military spirit of the surrendering army with a little deception, and then, surrender wholeheartedly, thinking about this, he couldn't help but sigh heavily.

Several other henchmen saw Zhao Yuekuo sighing, and couldn't help asking, "Why is the general sighing!"

"Ladies and gentlemen, I'm afraid the death of the six of us is not far off, I just thought about it carefully, and found that we have been led by the nose by the enemy, and the enemy has such capable people, and our defeat is a foregone conclusion. Zhao Yuekuo said dejectedly, he told all the experience just now to these confidants of his, the five people immediately panicked when they heard it, they didn't expect to be taken away by Zhao Yuekuo to escape, they came to bury him, and they knew that it was better to surrender.

"Don't panic, I think it should be possible to exchange my death for the lives of the five of you, if you can get out alive, you can escape with your lives. Zhao Yuekuo knew that if he fell into the hands of Jiang Dingshan, he would inevitably die.

Sure enough, after receiving Jiang Dingshan's report, the king of the border country was furious, but he didn't expect Zhao Yuekuo to lose six cities including the saucer-shaped pass overnight, and he had already surrendered to the enemy, and now he was captured by Jiang Dingshan, and the enemy army was already under the city of the critical pass, and the shape was urgent.

The king of the border country immediately sent troops to support the critical pass, and for Zhao Yuekuo and others, he had already ordered Jiang Dingshan to deal with it himself. After Jiang Dingshan received the king's edict, of course he was very happy, he immediately interrogated Zhao Yuekuo, and convicted him of a series of crimes such as collaborating with the enemy and treason, and even wanting to cooperate with the outside and seizing the critical pass. He already had the heart of death, and he just hoped that Jiang Dingshan could forgive his five subordinates. Unexpectedly, Jiang Dingshan corrected Zhao Yuekuo's five subordinates on the spot in front of him, and then he corrected Zhao Yuekuo on the spot. And hang the bodies of the six people above the gate of the critical pass as a warning.

Due to the king of the border country personally issued an order to fully assist the critical pass, now the strength of the critical pass has increased sharply, has reached more than 80,000 people, and the strength of Yingxue is also similar to the strength of the critical pass, the saucer pass has consumed the strength of a horse or an army, and the four cities along the way have also sent nearly 20,000 people to garrison, and now the strength of Yingxue is only 70,000. If the city is forcibly attacked, it will definitely suffer heavy losses, and Yingxue is thinking about how to take the critical pass.

The guards suddenly came to report that Zhao Yuekuo's corpse was hung above the city gate of the critical pass, Yingxue heard it, and hurriedly went to check, sure enough, Zhao Yuekuo's body was hanging above the gate of the critical pass, and Yingxue saw that Zhao Yuekuo's generals showed a sad and angry face. He immediately made a sacrifice to Zhao Yuekuo's corpse, and then said to the generals: "I'll go and take down the critical pass together, snatch back General Zhao's body, and let him be buried in peace!"

Of course, everyone agreed in unison. Especially those who surrendered to the army, they were even more angry, and Yingxue discussed it with Zeng Zhaoli, Zheng Ti and Liu Linfeng. He took Xie Hao, Yang Yuhai and more than 10,000 people under his command and those soldiers out of the city gate, preparing to attack the critical pass.

Yingxue led more than 10,000 people straight to the city gate. However, how could the tens of thousands of them be able to snatch back Zhao Yuekuo's body. Even the defensive barrier of the critical pass could not be broken, although Yingxue's water and fire double dragon and Xie Hao's golden light shield made the enemy feel afraid, and there were no high-level magicians like Yingxue in Jiang Dingshan's army, but with the strength of the two of them, they were unable to compete with tens of thousands of troops, and in desperation, Yingxue had to lead troops to retreat.

Jiang Dingshan on the wall tower saw that Yingxue only had such skills, so he thought that Yingxue was able to obtain the saucer-shaped pass was a pure fluke, if it wasn't for Zhao Yuekuo who could only defend, if he could take the initiative to attack, the ending would definitely be another situation, thinking of Yu Jing, he couldn't help but look at Zhao Yuekuo who was hanging above the city gate contemptuously and said: "Just watch, let this general fight a beautiful battle of annihilation for you to take a good look!"

Seeing that the goal had been achieved, and that it was difficult to shake the critical pass for a while with such a small number of troops, Ying Xue immediately ordered and retreated. Jiang Dingshan on the city tower, seeing that the enemy only had such a force, and it was so ordinary, his vigilance was greatly reduced, his face was proud, and the heart of the enemy was born, and now seeing that Yingxue and others wanted to retreat, Jiang Dingshan was willing to give up, so he immediately ordered people to withdraw the defensive barrier and prepare to go out of the city to pursue.

Ying Xue saw that Jiang Dingshan led troops to chase, so he ordered Xie Hao and Yang Yuhai to retreat, although Xie Hao and Yang Yuhai felt strange, this battle has not been fought at all, if the fight starts, their own side may not necessarily lose, why Ying Xue ordered to retreat to the city to defend? Although the two were puzzled, but the military order was like a mountain, not to mention that they had always believed in Ying Xue very much, and after listening to the order, they took the soldiers of the headquarters to retreat to Jiechuan City.

Seeing this situation, Jiang Dingshan laughed loudly outside the city, he didn't expect Wang Zhuo's army to be so vulnerable, and there were only about 20,000 people, he already had an absolute advantage, in his estimation, the defenders of Jiechuan Pass were not too much, I believe that the battle of Saucer Pass, Wang Zhuo's army also suffered heavy casualties, although he won the victory, but like Zhao Yuekuo, Wang Zhuo must not have many people left, he picked up a cheap one for nothing, now Wang Zhuo's army can not be compared with his new force at all, where can he still use his own hands to fight such a battle, in his heart, the defeat of Yingxue and others is a foregone conclusion, he is convinced that he will not take long, you can hit Wang Zhuo's lair - the three northern provinces, thinking of this, how can he not laugh out loud?

Seeing that Jiang Dingshan's soldiers outside the city were like rainbows and their military might was greatly inspired, Xie Hao and Yang Yuhai were very unhappy, and after returning to the city, the two pulled Yingxue aside, and said dissatisfiedly: "Look at Jiang Dingshan's pride, I'm really angry, you just order me to go out and meet him for a while!"

Ying Xue smiled and explained to the two of them: "You two don't need to worry, I have already sent someone to investigate him in detail, Jiang Dingshan is a businessman, he is mercenary, greedy for life and afraid of death, eager for quick success, mediocre and incompetent, where will he lead troops to fight? This kind of person is not comparable to us at all, the reason why I show weakness to him is that I want to exchange victory for the smallest price, if we attack now, although we can win, but the price may be too great, we will not suffer too much." All I have to do now is to make Jiang Dingshan get carried away, thinking that we are incompetent, so that he can attack us without any scruples, I think he has already boasted of Haikou, and may have reported his achievements to his king, and opened his mouth to increase the salary, and he must have made a promise to the king of the border country that he was ready to destroy us all in a few days. We just need to wait patiently for the opportunity now, and then, we will suddenly launch it, take him by surprise, and annihilate him in one fell swoop, you can be patient for the time being, I promise, it won't be a few days, we will be able to get out of this!"

"It turns out that you already have a countermeasure, why didn't you say it earlier, looking at Jiang Dingshan's arrogant appearance, it made me angry for a long time, what a waste of our feelings!" Yang Yuhai said with some dissatisfaction.

"I deliberately didn't open the defensive barrier, just to make Jiang Dingshan think that the current situation of Jiechuan City, which we have newly occupied, is very bad, in this case, he will think that there is an opportunity, I think, tonight will definitely take advantage of the situation to sneak attack us, you two should be especially careful tonight, remember to try to eliminate his living force, and resist his offensive." In this case, he will not be able to justify himself, because of the pressure of the king of the border country, he will definitely take the risk, so that we can take advantage of it, and then we can take him and the critical pass in one fell swoop!" said Yingxue confidently.

"Okay, don't worry, it's up to us brothers tonight! Yang Yuhai squeezed his eyebrows and said, with the bottom in his heart, Yang Yuhai certainly felt very sure.

"You guy!" Ying Xue kicked over, but was dodged by Yang Yuhai.

As expected, Jiang Dingshan saw that he was already looking for victory, so he immediately asked the king of the border country to go up, saying that he had completely controlled the shape of the country, and now he had slaughtered nearly 10,000 Wang Zhuo's rebels, and now his morale was greatly boosted, and within three days, he could take back the saucer pass, and even he had asked the king to let him lead the troops to kill Wang Zhuo's lair, of course, he also asked the king of the border country for a large number of military salaries.

The commander is like this, and the officers under Jiang Dingshan can also be seen, and Jiang Dingshan happily returned to the camp. Seeing that his side was in control, the generals around Jiang Dingshan asked for battle, asking to sneak attack Yingxue and their Jiechuan City tonight, Jiang Dingshan saw this situation, of course, he agreed very much, in his eyes, Yingxue They are like fish on the chopping board, whatever he Jiang Dingshan cuts, Go to chop, he thought that there were only about 10,000 people in Jiechuan City, in fact, where did he know that Yingxue had hidden all his troops, today's siege is just an illusion, how can war be transferred by people's subjective consciousness, I don't know it, I don't know the other, this battle is difficult!

At night, Jiang Dingshan dispatched nearly 40,000 people to attack the city, Jiechuan City should be very easy to attack, the city is small, and there is no defensive barrier, and there are not many defenders in the city, isn't such a city very easy to capture, Jiang Dingshan's generals are full of confidence, and they have already calculated in their hearts, as long as they can take Jiechuan Pass, then they will definitely be promoted this time.

Yang Yuhai and the others have already held back their anger today, they have already been waiting for the battle, but these guys are late again, and these guys swaggered towards Jiechuan City without knowing whether they are alive or dead, where is this like a sneak attack, obviously they are here to change their guards! With such an attitude, how can Yang Yuhai and Xie Hao and the others not get angry, they are simply transparent, they are really underestimated Yang Yuhai and the others, Yang Yuhai and the others have already held back their strength, ready to give them these uninteresting guys a hard blow. (To be continued......)
