But it was said that Lao Cao couldn't help but be surprised and happy when he heard that Fang La's army was defeated.

It was surprising that Fang Latang Holy Father, and with the help of brave generals such as "Flower Monk" and "Blue-faced Beast", it was really incredible to deal with Zhao Song, who was like a candle in the wind, and he would be defeated.

The joy is that Fang La, after this battle, there is probably no other mind born, so that the monarch and the minister can be harmonious, and the son-in-law can be in harmony forever, how many bad things have been saved?

He didn't dare to slack off, so he ordered Xiao Jiasui, Xiao Xianggong and others to assist Wu Song to sit in Bianliang, personally raise 30,000 male soldiers, and personally drive the expedition.

The brothers who went with him were Wu Yong, Lin Chong, Hua Rong, Fang Jie, Shi Xiu, Liu Yuan, Zhu Jing, Zhang Bofen, Fan Rui, An Daoquan, Dai Zong, Shi Qian, Song Jiang, Song Qing, Su Ding, Ou Peng, Ma Lin, Li Yun, Kong Ming, Kong Liang, and Wang Dingliu, a total of 21 people.

The army set off for a few days, and walked to Yingtianfu, where Fang Xuedu and Xiahou Chenger guarded the town, begging for war, and the old Cao Yunzhi was brought into the army and went south together.

After walking for more than ten days, more than 10,000 defenders of Chuzhou heard that Lao Cao's soldiers and horses were far away and scattered in a hurry.

When Lao Cao arrived, he saw the city gates open in all directions, so the soldiers occupied the city without blood, issued a notice to calm the people, and ordered Dai Zong and Shi Qian to cross the river, contact the soldiers and horses in the south of the Yangtze River, and inquire about the defeat of the army.

After two or three days, the horse was returned, Luzhou on the left, Yangzhou on the right, there were tens of thousands of soldiers and horses killed, of which the main general of the Luzhou army was Du Chong, the captain of the army, and the main general of the Yangzhou army was Wang Xie, the former commander of the imperial camp.

Wu Yong offered advice: "Now that the rivers and mountains are unified, and the Song family is guarded according to the Yangtze River, its momentum is also declining, and its courage is also cold, Your Majesty can divide the troops to attack." ”

Cao Cao waved his hand and smiled: "Although this theory is high, I don't want to take it." Why? The number of soldiers and horses on his two sides is not small, once defeated, he will turn his troops into bandits, and he will trouble the place, and I can't bear it. And let him come to Chuzhou, defeat him in one fell swoop, how many troubles will be avoided? ”

Wu sighed with his arched hand: "It is the blessing of the world to have a king like this. ”

Cao Cao laughed and ordered: "Lin Chong and Su Ding listen to the order, you two lead three thousand horse troops, so and so, Hua Rong and Ou Peng listen to the order, you two lead three thousand horse troops, like this!" ”

The four generals clenched their fists and led their own troops.

At this time, it was rumored outside the camp that Dai Zong and Shi Qian returned, and Lao Cao was overjoyed, and hurriedly summoned the two to meet, and the two of them walked quickly to the court.

It turned out that a few months ago, after Fang La killed and defeated Tong Guanwei's soldiers and horses around Maoshan, he listened to Yu Wupo's strategy, arranged suspicious soldiers, and kept wandering around Jinling Mansion, so scared that the soldiers and horses in the city did not dare to move, and his own family led the main force to fight around, and defeated Chizhou, Ningguofu, Guangde Army, Huzhou, Huizhou, and Yanzhou.

These places are the birthplace of Fang La's previous rebellion, there are many believers, for a time there are more than 100,000 people from the scene, the majesty is restored, Fang La is overjoyed, he will send troops to attack Jinling Mansion.

In the Jinling Mansion, the old official Zhao Ji told the world that the emperor was killed by Mingjiao, and he was worried about Sheji, so he had to re-ascend the throne.

Although Zhao Ji thought well, where were the soldiers and horses from all over the world at this time? Only Li Gang, a loyal minister who had been demoted to Shaxian County, Nanjian Prefecture, heard about this, begged his grandfather to tell his grandmother, and gathered 5,000 soldiers and horses from all the states and counties to escort him.

During the period, passing through Qiwu Mountain, he killed a strong man on the mountain, and wanted to take the food and grass of the officers and soldiers, Li Gang was so angry that he cried: "It's really when the country is ruined and the family is ruined, even the grass Kou dares to come to rob the officers and soldiers, the sons and daughters, they simply fight to the death with the grass Kou, let's repay the country with death together!" ”

However, those soldiers all smiled and said: "We have been soldiers for all these years, and there is no food and salary that will not be deducted for a month, where do we owe him to the old Zhao family, and we want to repay him with death?" Now that I am willing to leave home thousands of miles to fight, I still see that Master Li is a loyal minister, and I am willing to accompany you for a while, but if you really want to fight to the death, the lord forgives you - please go to someone else! ”

Li Gang shook his head and sighed: "When the soldiers don't eat enough, they run back in battle, if you say so, you can't blame you!" ”

Ignoring these soldiers, he drew his sword and slew at the thieves.

He has a loyal and brave general, called Zhang Bao, who can make a muddy iron rod, seeing Li Gang's desperate efforts, he said: "I am a general in Master Li's mansion, and Master Li has never treated me slowly over the years, although he is a poor official, but I have always eaten what he eats, how can I not accept his kindness?" ”

At that moment, he pulled his legs apart, caught up with Li Gang galloping on his horse, and shouted: "Master, take a little back, and wait for the last general to kill the thief and general, and repay your kindness over the years!" ”

Crashing into the crowd at the moment, the iron rod was waved, and dozens of people were smashed with his hands.

When the leader of the thieves saw this, he was amazed: "What a warrior, wait for me to meet him!" Then he swung the double hammer in his palm and came to fight Zhang Bao.

This thief chief, not very old, makes a pair of good hammers, although Zhang Bao is brave, but he is not his opponent, the two battles are more than 30 combined, Zhang Bao's stick, seeing that he can't resist, Li Gang saw it and shouted: "Zhang Baoxiu is afraid, you and my master and servant died in one place today!" "The horse and the sword came forward to attack.

The thief chief was shocked and said: "I have never seen such a pair of masters and servants in my life, so righteous!" ”

took the hammer and blocked the two of them, and shouted: "Wu Naguan'er, who are you, so not cowardly in life and death? ”

Li Gang laughed miserably: "Now that the country does not exist, how can the minister think about life and death?" I am Li Gang, and now I am leading the troops to King Qin of Jinling, but I was stopped by you, a thief, since I can't repay the country, I will die here. ”

The thief chief was shocked when he heard this: "I have heard for a long time that there is a loyal minister Li Gang in the court, but I didn't expect it to be you?" Hey, I wouldn't have robbed you if I knew that's the case. ”

Saying that, he dismounted and cut the whisk, Li Gang hurriedly dismounted and helped him up, asking for his name and surname, but he was a famous man in the rivers and lakes, called "Iron Hammer General" He Yuanqing, Li Gang pulled him and said: "General He, I see that your martial arts are earth-shattering, isn't it a pity to bury the grass?" It's better to follow me to rescue the driver, this official will protect you as a big official in front of the emperor, seal your wife and son, and your good martial arts will not be in vain! ”

He Yuanqing said happily: "He Mou has wanted to seek a future for a long time, but he only hates that there is no one to guide him, and since he is favored by Duke Li, how can he be willing to become a robber again?" When he fell under Li Gang, Li Gang was overjoyed, so he asked him to be a pioneer and continue to the capital.

Fang Lana besieged the city for a long time, suddenly there was a Song general Yang Cunzhong, in the city shot out a letter, claiming to be Tong Guan's late general, because Tong Guan lost power, bullied, willing to sacrifice the city gate as a step into the body.

Fang La showed the letter to the generals, thinking that this was a sign of people's hearts, Zhang Jue and Li Ying recalled that this person was a general under Tong Guan, and he had also gone into battle before attacking Yuguan, and even received a few flying knives from Li Ying, and his martial arts were really extraordinary.

Fang La became more and more unsuspicious when he heard this, so he made an appointment with Yang Cunzhong to sacrifice the door and seize the city. Lu Zhishen frowned and said: "We have been besieging the city for a long time, and sooner or later we will definitely be able to break him, so why take the risk?" If Song Jiang deliberately deceived me, how should he deal with it? ”

Fang La said: "I already have a plan in my heart, I just have to divide the troops into two units, and enter the city one after another, even if he really has ambush soldiers, I will cover up and kill him in the rear, and kill him in one shot." ”

On the second watch of the same day, the city really lit a fire for the letter, Fang La was overjoyed, and personally led an army to kill the past, but when he saw the city gate open, Yang Cunzhong bowed to the ground to greet him, and said that he could see the Holy Father, such as seeing the blue sky with clouds and mist, Fang La laughed, and still ordered Yang Cunzhong to lead the headquarters to guard the city gate, and he went straight to the palace to kill.

Lu Zhishen and the others saw that Fang La had succeeded, and he also let go of his arms and waved his troops to cover it.

Fang La has been killing under the imperial city, is about to rob the imperial city, suddenly heard a bang, the imperial city stood countless people and horses, bows, crossbows and stones, raindrops smashed, at the same time on the roofs on both sides of the long street, also poured out of many soldiers, condescending, crossbow arrows, tiles smashed indiscriminately, and countless torches were thrown, but the ground was already covered with straw, suddenly the fire ignited, Fang La's troops and horses were in chaos.

Lu Zhishen saw that his knowledge was not good, so he wanted to return to the army to occupy the city gate, but Yang Cunzhong had already snatched back the city, first put down the jack gate, and then blocked the knife cart in the stairway of the city wall, condescendingly shot the bow and arrow, and the army of Fang Lahou was also in chaos.

At this time, a cannon sounded, the gate of the imperial city was opened, and the veteran Zhang Suo led his troops to kill directly, and several fierce generals under his command were: He Guan, Miao Fu, Zhang Xian, Yelu Derong, Yelu Dezhong, side by side to kill fiercely, Chen Sangun was caught off guard, and Yelu Derong killed and overturned the horse, and the Fang La army became more and more defeated.

In the melee, the Nine Emperors Zhao Gou put on armor, personally went into battle, shot three arrows in a row, Fang La only dodged one arrow, and was shot down, Li Ying and Yu Hualong were horrified, sacrificed their lives to kill, carried Fang La out, and retreated all the way to the south of the city, seeing that there was no way to retreat, all the armies were clamoring.

"Flower Monk" Lu Zhishen shouted: "We are waiting for the order of Brother Wu to run Jiangnan, if we fail like this, how can we have the face to see him?" Spread out with your assholes, and wait for the Sprinkler family to lead you out of the city! ”

This reckless monk immediately dismounted, stripped off his armor, danced a Zen staff like a wheel, and went straight into the city gate, bent down and squatted, holding the jack gate with both hands, and was about to lift it.

The surrounding sergeants exclaimed: "Grandpa, isn't this crazy, this iron gate is put down, unless the King Kong in the temple is revealed, who can hold it up?" ”

Lu Zhishen smiled and said: "The King Kong in the temple is a fart, and he will be overturned by eating and sprinkling, don't blink when you don't believe it!" ”

As he spoke, he saw that he was covered in muscles and muscles, rolling like a tide, and the green tendons on his arms were bursting out, spreading around his body like a dragon, and he shouted in his mouth: "Get up, get up, get up!" ”

I heard the creaking sound of the iron gate endlessly, and sure enough, he lifted it up little by little!

Until one person was tall, Lu Zhishen fit into the gate, roared a tiger, held up the iron gate with both arms, and shouted: "All go, all go!" ”

The army was inexplicably surprised, and shouted in unison: "Grandpa, isn't it Mingzun Manifestation!" Yang Cunzhong saw this, and hurriedly led the army to kill the city, but was blocked by Yang Zhi and Wu Shangzhi.

Lu Zhishen was in this box, holding the iron gate alone for about two pillars of incense, until most of the people escaped, his strong figure was shaking endlessly, and he knew that he couldn't get out, he looked up and laughed, and was about to speak, Yang Zhi stabbed a tiger in the stab, hit Lu Zhishen and flew out, the two brothers rolled into a ball, and the iron gate fell to the ground with a bang, smashed into dust.

Lu Zhishen's arms were thicker at this time, sore and swollen, and he laughed: "Brother, if it weren't for you today, it would be difficult for the Sprinkle family to live." ”

Yang Zhi shook his head and smiled: "If it weren't for Senior Brother, everyone would be dead!" ”

When the next group of generals hurriedly reorganized their troops and horses and wanted to retreat, they suddenly killed two more soldiers and horses, one left and one right, and the army was in chaos.

This is exactly what it is:

If you want to finish the miraculous battle, who knows that there will be a storm on the ground. King Kong struggled to support the brake, and the soldiers and disputes were like boiling vortices.
