"When will the Phoenix Army arrive?" Hearing Xi Liyang's words, the bearded sweat frowned and asked, after asking this, he looked intently at the foot of the mountain in the distance, where the horses neighed slightly, and he couldn't see half a figure, but he knew that there were people there, enemies, and more than one. (）

"Is the cavalry without horses the opponent of the Phoenix Army?" At this time, the middle-aged man who had been sitting on the wooden chair next to the two looked at Xi Liyang and said seriously, after saying this, he reached out and used scissors to cut the core of the candle on the side shorter, and as the candle center became shorter, the light in the tent dimmed.

Holding the scissors in his hand, the middle-aged man lightly scratched a few times on the wooden table on the side, wiped the wax and oil off the scissors, stood up, and looked at Xi Liyang, who was looking at him, The middle-aged man took two steps forward and stood side by side with Xi Liyang.

"Converse, if Your Highness hears your words, I'm afraid you will inevitably be beaten up. Looking at Converse who came to him, Xi Liyang shook his head slightly, and then looked at Converse and continued, "The Phoenix Army has been traveling for a long time, let's wait for work, don't forget that our archers are already ready to fly, and we will definitely catch the Phoenix Army off guard when the time comes." After saying this, Xi Liyang had a smile on the corner of his mouth, and then he looked up at the bright moon above the night through a gap in the tent, and then looked at the figure of the bearded sweat not far away, "Luo Huqi, you continue to observe the movement at the foot of the mountain, I think the Phoenix Army should be almost there." ”

Luo Huqi just nodded after hearing Xi Liyang's words, and didn't say anything.

"We only have 30,000 iron horsemen, don't forget that the Phoenix Army has 50,000 horses. Hearing Xi Liyang's words, Converse frowned, with a trace of sorrow on his face, "Even if the Phoenix Army is a long journey, don't forget that Guo Shihao is a Qi Sect master, His Highness is not here now, if something really goes wrong......"

"What's wrong with the Qi Sect master? I don't believe that Guo Shihao can be invincible with the courage of one person. Speaking of this, Xi Liyang paused, "As long as our archers can resist the first wave of the Phoenix Army's attack, when the warriors get on the war horses, the Phoenix Army can only be slaughtered by us." ”

"When will His Highness come back?" Seeing that Xi Liyang was so sure, Converse stopped arguing about anything, and changed the topic and asked.

"Five hours have passed since His Royal Highness passed the book on the pigeon, and I should be back soon. After Xi Liyang finished speaking, he patted Converse's shoulder, "We have followed His Highness from birth to death for so many years, what kind of vicious battle has not been experienced, don't worry, the victory will belong to us." ”

"After dawn tomorrow, the Phoenix Army may be removed from the mainland. Looking at the silent Converse, Xi Liyang finally said a word, after saying this, he tightly held the hilt of the knife in his hand, and when he was about to walk out of the tent with a sense of pride in his chest, Luo Huqi, who had been staring at the foot of the mountain, whispered softly at this time, and then Luo Huqi turned his head to Xi Liyang with doubts and said, "There seems to be a figure rushing over here at the foot of the mountain." ”

――――

――――

Less than ten miles away from the camp where the Mangguo Iron Cavalry was stationed at the foot of the mountain, there was a wide valley, and the valley was now full of people, and although the figures were full of people hunting with flags, there was no sound.

Some birds were frightened and kept hovering in the sky and refused to return to their nests, and some wild beasts were staring at these people with wide eyes, not understanding what they were gathered here for.

The tens of thousands of people were divided into ten squares, each with different weapons in their hands, including spears and machetes, and some of the people in the team were just holding curved bows and carrying arrows on their backs.

Unlike the Mang** team, who like to unify military uniforms, these people in front of them have different styles of clothes, and their faces are old and young, but they have one thing in common, that is, the expressions on their faces, firmness, and silence.

This is the group of thieves who were once called a rabble by the Qilin Army, but now they are famous on the mainland.

"Report to the head of the group, there is news from the head of the group that it will take at least an hour to get here. ”

"Report to the regiment leader, the scouts of the Phoenix Army are less than eight miles away from the camp of the Mangguo Iron Cavalry. ”

"Report to the head of the regiment, there is still no movement in the Mangguo Iron Cavalry camp. ”

"Report to the head of the regiment, the 50,000 horses of the Phoenix Army are only ten miles away from the Mangguo Iron Cavalry. ”

Listening to the news that his subordinates kept transmitting, Shangguan Haoyu had been listening quietly, Qiao Er stood behind Shangguan Haoyu, looking at the crowd standing quietly in front of him, with a smile on his face.

After waving his hand and letting the subordinates who delivered the news retreat, Shangguan Haoyu lowered his head and pondered for a while, then looked at the bright moon above his head, and then looked at the east, in the east of Shangguan Haoyu, there was a winding mountain road, through the night, there was no end in sight.

"The thief group led by Gu Huancheng is still an hour away from here, and the Phoenix Army is less than ten miles away from the camp of the Mangguo Iron Cavalry, which is only the time of a stick of incense, when the two armies fight, the mountains will definitely shake, should we make some preparations now?" Seeing that Shangguan Haoyu was silent and did not speak, Qiao Er took two steps forward and reminded in a low voice.

"I'm afraid someone will find out if we leave now. Hearing Qiao Er's words, Shangguan Haoyu shook his head and said, then turned his head to look at Qiao Er, "Second brother, don't you think the Mangguo Iron Rider is too quiet?"

"It's the dead of night now, the Phoenix Army's surprise attack was originally unexpected, Brother Shangguan, did you say that you found something?" Although he was a little excited and anxious, he still asked with a puzzled look on his face.

"Although the Phoenix Army is a surprise attack, I am afraid that the Mangguo Iron Cavalry has already prepared. Shangguan Haoyu said with a smile, "I'm afraid this is the reason why there is no movement after those dark piles buried around the Mangguo Iron Horse are cleaned up by us." ”

"What does Brother Shangguan mean?" Listening to Shangguan Haoyu's analysis, Qiao Er breathed a sigh of relief, he also thought that Shangguan Haoyu knew that he had told Mo Xiao about the movements of the Phoenix Army in advance and was discovered by Shangguan Haoyu.

"Guo Shihao is not a fool, he must have discovered something, so in my opinion, even if the Phoenix Army comes to the place where the Mangguo Iron Cavalry is stationed, I am afraid that there will be no battle soon. ”

"Why?" Hearing Shangguan Haoyu's words, Qiao Er was stunned.

"Because Mo Xiao is not there, no one in the Mangguo Iron Horse can resist Guo Shihao. Speaking of this, a smile appeared on the corner of Shangguan Haoyu's mouth, "If I'm not mistaken, the attack and defense between the Mangguo Iron Cavalry and the Phoenix Army will change next." ”

"If the Phoenix Army besieges but does not attack, the Mangguo Iron Cavalry will definitely be chaotic first, and then the advantages that the Mangguo Iron Cavalry relies on will be empty. After speaking, Shangguan Haoyu looked at Qiao Er and continued, "So, we just need to watch the fire from the other side and watch the changes now, and when the Mangguo Iron Cavalry launches an attack on the Phoenix Army, we will attack from behind the Phoenix Army, so that the Phoenix Army will have no advantage at all." ”

"At that time, the two armies were evenly matched, like two tigers fighting, and when they were both defeated, we were giving them a salary. ”
