Tianzhu City, the prefect's mansion.

"Fort master, according to the news, the army sent by the imperial court this time is stationed fifty kilometers outside the city, and the person leading the troops is Li Chengwen, the eighth prince of the royal family.

A young man with a sharp beak and monkey cheeks asked Zhao Tong cautiously.

Zhao Tong sat on the chair with his eyes closed, and he didn't care about this matter from beginning to end.

"Hmph, what a broken prince, it's just a waste that hasn't grown any hair! I heard that this eighth prince is a concubine, and he is not familiar with the royal family at all. Think about it, if the imperial court really planned to suppress us and others, how could it only send a mere 50,000 troops? We have 100,000 heroes in Feihuang Castle, and the 50,000 army is not a cause for concern. ”

Zhao Tong said lightly.

But having said that, the rest of the people are still a little uneasy.

"Castle master, although the imperial court only sent 50,000 horses, but no matter what, they are all soldiers and horses of the imperial court, representing the royal family of the Dawu Dynasty, if it is really to the end that our two armies fight, whether they lose or win, the current emperor is bound to be angry."

"Yes, if the emperor cares about his own face, and when the time comes, he will send a large army to crusade against us, and then it will not only be us, I'm afraid that even if we gather the other three anti-kings, we will not have the strength to fight at all."

Listening to the words of the few people below, Zhao Tong's brows couldn't help frowning slightly.

Maybe it's because of the successive battles during this time, if you think about it carefully, he is really a little overconfident now. What they are facing now is not the defenders of these cities and counties in Pingzhou, but the real soldiers and horses of the imperial court, and what everyone said is not unreasonable.

At this moment, Zhao Tong's heart couldn't help but start worrying.

"That's it! Now we have no way out, and the most important thing for us now is how to get through this difficult time. ”

"Since the imperial court has sent a large army to suppress us and others, this battle is inevitable, but this is also an opportunity for us! If we can destroy the imperial army this time, it will not only increase our morale, but even dampen the morale of the imperial court! If we capture this eighth prince alive, the imperial court still wants to send a large army to come, I am afraid that we will have to weigh a few points! ”

At this moment, Zhao Tong already has a plan in his heart. Didn't the people of the imperial court send a letter of surrender? Then I will bring someone to meet the people of the court tomorrow.

"Castle Master!"

At this moment, a young man hurried outside the door.

"Castle Master! The court has changed! ”

This young man was the spy who was ordered by Zhao Tong to secretly see the actions of Li Chengwen's army.

"What's changed?"

Zhao Tong hurriedly asked.

"The soldiers and horses of the imperial court began to assemble, and half of the army left under the leadership of the enemy generals half an hour ago, but looking at the direction they went, it seemed that it was the city and county where they were located!"

Well?

Hearing this, Zhao Tong frowned slightly.

"Castle master, I'm afraid the people of the imperial court are planning to do something to Wanhai."

The middle-aged man holding a folding fan on the side said lightly.

After Zhao Tong heard this, his expression suddenly shocked, and a sneer immediately appeared on his face.

"It didn't take much effort! Since they are the first to attack Wanhai, it will be a godsend for us! The imperial court soldiers and horses are only only 50,000, and now half of the army is going to attack Wanhai, so to speak, the imperial court soldiers and horses stationed in the same place are only less than 30,000, if our Flying Emperor Fort suddenly attacks at this time, it is bound to be a big victory! ”

Speaking of this, Zhao Tong burst out laughing.

"Someone! Gather soldiers and horses, set out at noon, this time, this fort mainly let the soldiers and horses of the imperial court come this time without returning! ”

"Yes!"

Under Zhao Tong's orders, tens of thousands of refugee armies soon assembled outside Tianzhu City. It's just that maybe what Zhao Tong didn't expect was that their every move did not hide from Li Chengwen's eyeliner at all.

Seeing that Zhao Tong's army began to assemble, the spies in the shadows also passed the news back to the barracks as soon as possible.

When Li Chengwen learned the news, Li Chengwen couldn't help but show a smile on his face.

The fish has taken the bait.

In order to create a more realistic scene, under Li Chengwen's order, the army that left the camp to attack Wan Hai also launched an attack on the cities and counties controlled by Wan Hai's men at the first time.

In less than half a day, in the face of the attack of 20,000 troops, Wan Hai's men and horses were defeated and retreated, losing three counties and more than a dozen towns in a row.

When Wan Hai learned the news, he was also furious, and immediately ordered to gather people to compete with the imperial court.

But after Wan Hai prepared everything, after the imperial soldiers and horses captured a county, they did not continue to act, Wan Hai was a thoughtful person, lest the imperial court soldiers and horses were brewing any conspiracy, Wan Hai did not dare to act rashly, so he could only order his men to stick to the nearest city and county, waiting for the arrival of the imperial court soldiers and horses.

The other side.

When Zhao Tong learned that the imperial soldiers and horses had launched an attack on Wanhai's territory, Zhao Tong knew that his opportunity had come, and immediately personally led his subordinates to the place where Li Chengwen's army was stationed, wanting to make a sneak attack and destroy the remaining imperial soldiers and horses in the camp.

The mighty men and horses left Tianzhu City, this time in order to be able to annihilate the imperial court soldiers and horses in one fell swoop, Zhao Tong can be said to have dispatched all the horses of Tianzhu City, as many as 40,000, although Zhao Tong claims to have 100,000 brothers under his command, but after all, he still has so many cities and counties to guard to prevent the rest of the anti-king's sneak attack, these 40,000 horses are already all he can mobilize now.

Even in Tianzhu City, he only left less than a thousand men and horses to defend it, which can be seen how strong Zhao Tong's determination is to annihilate the soldiers and horses of the imperial court.

"Castle master, ahead is where the imperial court soldiers and horses are stationed! According to the news from the brothers, there were only 20,000 soldiers and horses left in the camp! ”

A few miles away, the big banner of martial arts fluttering in the wind came into the sight of Zhao Tong and others. After hearing the report of his subordinates, Zhao Tong was excited.

Kill the prince?

What an exciting thing it is. At one time, he was just a person who tried everything to satisfy himself, but now, he is a king who has the ability to compete with the imperial court, which makes Zhao Tong feel more proud than ever.

"Someone! Spread the order of the lord of this fort, and wait for the army to rush and kill with all their might, and set foot on their camp! Kill a court soldier, reward ten taels of silver, anyone who captures the royal family alive, a reward of 100 gold! ”

Since ancient times, there must be a fierce man under the heavy reward, and the money is not important to the current Zhao Tong at all, but this can stimulate the blood of his soldiers.

After hearing Zhao Tong's words, tens of thousands of horses all showed excitement, constantly waving the long knife in their hands, and their mouths made a roaring sound......
