After Qin Feng left, Xiao Qiao returned to the room and fidgeted.

After a long time, she took out a palm-sized compass-like object, reached out and stroked it, thinking about it, and when she took her hand away, the pointer on the disc rotated rapidly, and after a few breaths, the pointer stopped and pointed to the northeast.

At dawn, the east gate of Xincai City was opened, and a steady stream of soldiers and horses came out of the city.

Yang Hong, Yan Xiang, Zhao Yan and others stood outside the city gate with officials of all sizes to see off the army.

When the team was almost about to leave the city, Qin Feng stepped on his horse, took the Tiger Evil Three-Pointed Knife from his own soldiers and said to everyone: "You don't have to send it, go back!" ”

"My lord, be careful!"

Qin Feng pulled the reins in his hand, and the war horse trotted forward, and the flag bearer followed behind him with the big flag.

When he reached the front of the line, he slowed down and deliberately controlled the speed of the march.

It wasn't long before the sound of the galloping hooves of horses could be heard from behind.

A pro-soldier turned his head to look at it, and hurriedly said to Qin Feng; "Captain, Miss Qiao is catching up!"

Qin Feng looked back, it was really Xiao Qiao, and he hurriedly stepped aside.

When Xiao Qiao stopped, he said, "Why are you chasing after you?" ”

Xiao Qiao took out a sachet from his arms and handed it over, "If the war doesn't go well, you can open it, maybe it will help you!" ”

Qin Feng took the sachet and looked at it, then raised his head and was about to speak, Xiao Qiao had already turned around from the horse, and swallowed back the words that came to her mouth, until she disappeared from sight on horseback, then she picked up the sachet and smelled it under her nose, it was very fragrant!

"This little girl, what else are you doing, do you think you are Zhuge Pifu?" Qin Feng shook his head, stuffed the sachet into his arms, and galloped forward.

In the afternoon of the next day, the team arrived fifteen miles outside Xiyang City, and Qin Feng ordered to set up camp, preparing to rest for another night tonight, and then come to Xiyang City tomorrow.

After the camp was settled, the soldiers sat together in groups to rest and chat, the men carried water by the river to prepare a fire to make food, the patrolling sergeants were in a team after another, and on the watchtower in the middle of the camp, the three soldiers staggered back and forth, observing and monitoring everything around.

At this time, several knights galloped in the direction of the camp.

This made the soldiers and archers of the Arrow Tower and the Walled Wall strengthen their vigilance, and the captain of the Camp Gate stood on the Walled Wall and waved his hand, and two sharp arrows shot out from the Arrow Tower, and the arrows shot right on the ground in front of several knights.

Several horses neighed, stopped instantly, raised their front hooves, and the horses stood.

A shout came from the wall: "Who is coming?" ”

One of the knights replied loudly: "Hawkeye Guard Jiazi Nine has an urgent military situation to report to the captain!" ”

"Do you have a certificate?"

The knight pulled out a metal plaque and held it high.

Seeing this, the guard of the camp gate on the walled wall immediately ordered: "Open the gate of the walled wall and move away from the horse!" ”

The gate of the camp slowly opened, and a group of soldiers ran out to carry away the few horses that were blocked outside the camp gate, and several knights immediately beat their horses into the camp.

After two consecutive identity checks, these knights saw Qin Feng in the big tent of the Chinese army.

"Report to the captain, we have found out the news of the ancient city and the two cities of Xiyang, Zhang Fei is still in the city of Xiyang, there are 2,000 soldiers and horses, all of them are recruited in the past month, the people near the ancient city are strong, almost after a few days of training, the weapons and armor are incomplete, and there are 200 stone of grain transported to the ancient city in the first two days! There are 500 defenders in the ancient city, led by a general surnamed Mi! ”

After Qin Feng heard this, the guard surnamed Mi? is with Zhang Fei, and his surname is Mi, and he is under Liu Da'er, so it can only be Mi Zhu or Mi Fang.

"Okay, you wait and rest, and then go and investigate when you have eaten and drunk enough!"

"No!"

Early in the morning, after the soldiers had eaten breakfast, Qin Feng left 1,000 foot soldiers to guard the camp, and brought 1,000 cavalry and 3,000 foot soldiers to Xiyang City.

Soon after the banner of the army appeared on the horizon, a rapid gong sounded on the west gate of Xiyang City, and the banner inserted on the tower seemed to be drooping because the wind had stopped.

In the county office, a middle-aged man with a goatee was processing the official documents and account books, when a sergeant ran in panting and bowed down on one knee to report: "Mr. Mi, the big thing is not good, there is a large army outside the West City Gate, there are about three or four thousand men and horses, the military formation is rigorous, and the murderous atmosphere is vigorous!" ”

"What?" The brush in Mi Zhu's hand trembled, and he raised his head and immediately asked, "Do you know who it is?" ”

"This army of soldiers and horses erected the banner of the word 'Qin', and there is also a flame flag, the villain listened to the people in the city say that this city was the territory of the Flame Army before, could it be that the Flame Army's men and horses killed it?" The sergeant said breathlessly.

Mi Zhu frowned: "Flame Army? Haven't you heard of it······ Come on, hurry up and call General Zhang! ”

The armor soldier outside the door walked in and said, "Mr. Mi, General Zhang was drunk last night, and he is still sleeping at the moment!" ”

"Go and wake him up, the enemy has been killed under the city, he is still sleeping, go quickly!"

"No!"

After a while, a sturdy man with a fierce face, eyes like copper bells, and hair like steel needles walked in with crooked armor and a snake spear and roared: "Mr. Mi, which stupid donkey who doesn't know how to disturb Grandpa Zhang's dream?" See if I don't poke him in eighteen big holes! ”

Mi Zhu said anxiously: "We have robbed other people's cities, and now the Lord is coming to the door, go to the West City Gate and take a look at the city tower, go quickly!" ”

The two immediately left the county office, mounted their horses, and galloped towards the west city gate with their own soldiers and guards.

Not long after, the two rushed to the west city gate, turned over and dismounted and ran up to the city tower to the wall to look out, the eyes of the two were condensed at the same time, and their expressions were shocked, good guys, the soldiers and horses outside the city are divided into dozens of large and small phalanxes, each phalanx is a straight line before and after the horizontal and vertical oblique lines, neat and tidy, the spear tips of the soldiers flashed with cold light, and the armor reflected the sunlight to see people couldn't help but squint their eyes.

At the front of the military formation, the flags of two large flags fluttered in the wind, one side embroidered with a Qin character, and the other embroidered with a fiercely burning flame.

At this time, a shout came from the front of the military formation: "Zhang Fei, you black dog and bear, listen, you and others have captured my city for no reason, killed my people, and robbed me of money and food, which is really a bandit act, and you are limited to leave quickly from the north gate with these rabbles within half an hour, and you are not allowed to take away a stitch or thread, otherwise I will wait for me to attack the city, and I will kill or bury it!" ”

Where could Zhang Fei stand such insults, he immediately blew up his hair and yelled; "Pick up the people and horses, follow me out of the city and chop that guy into meat sauce!"

Mi Zhu hurriedly grabbed him, "General Zhang must not be reckless, and look at the other party's neat appearance and strong morale, it is really an elite army, and you will be defeated if you go!" ”

Zhang Fei suddenly smiled and said: "Mr. Mi, don't worry, I won't fight with him, and see that the thief will go up to the head and you!" Then he turned and walked quickly down the city.
