Midnight.

There is no wind, no moon and no stars.

Thick dark clouds enveloped Heijo like black ink.

In the light of the fire, the Lingzhou army outside Pingcheng was sharpening its swords.

After the camp was uprooted, all the eight thousand Lingzhou Ruishi were summoned in front of Yuan Wanshan.

"Lingzhou Ruishi, we have been ordered to come to Pingcheng to conquer Li Xingchen for several days, and now that the fighter plane has arrived, tonight is the time for you to make contributions!"

On the high platform, Yuan Wanshan looked down at the Lingzhou Ruishi below, and said loudly: "As long as you can successfully seize the grain and grass in Shuofang Valley, then Li Xingchen can break it without a fight!" ”

"We will obey the general's orders!"

Eight thousand Lingzhou Ruishi responded in unison.

"Very good, you are worthy of being the warriors of Lingzhou, worthy of being the bravest warriors of the Great Wei Dynasty, go to battle, warriors, fight for the Great Wei Dynasty, fight for your honor!"

In Yuan Wanshan's high shout.

It instantly ignited the blood of the eight thousand Lingzhou Ruishi.

"Fight for the Great Wei Dynasty, fight for honor!"

"Pacify the anti-thief Li Xingchen, and go home as soon as possible!"

In the midst of a raging wave.

The eight thousand Lingzhou Ruishi were like stormy waves, suddenly surging towards the direction of Shuofang Valley.

"The battle was a complete success!"

Looking at the Lingzhou Ruishi who was full of fighting spirit, Yuan Wanshan also felt excited.

In this battle of night raids, he can't lose, and he can't afford to lose.

Because once he loses, he will be greeted not only by the removal from office, but also by the purge from the Chen Party.

That's why he bet all 8,000 men and horses on it, and won the night attack tonight with the position of a lion and a rabbit.

It's a pity that all this has not started yet, and it is already a doomed defeat.

Because real hunters often appear in the form of prey.

……

Among the peaks above the Shuofang Valley.

At this moment, there is a person looking at the little spark that is getting closer and closer.

"Lord, all three thousand men and horses are ambushed in the cliff cave at the mouth of the valley, and the Shuofang Valley is covered with earth-shattering thunder, and now we are only waiting for the Lingzhou army to come and attack at night."

Feng Jie came behind Li Xingchen and shook his feather fan lightly.

"I'm already in the miserable mountain wind, feeling the strong killing intent!"

Li Xingchen looked into the distance and said, "I hope Yuan Wanshan won't be defeated too badly tonight, otherwise I really don't know how to surrender him." ”

Since the moment Cai Jing defrauded.

Any news in the Lingzhou military camp, he can know it clearly.

For example, when Yuan Wanshan was going to launch a night attack tonight, he received a secret report from Cai Jing in the evening.

Therefore, he immediately personally rushed to Shuofang Valley with two thousand men and horses.

and instructed Feng Jie to set traps, hide soldiers and horses, and set up ambushes.

He firmly believed that no matter how Yuan Wanshan's Lingzhou army struggled tonight, it would not escape the fate of being trapped in Shuofang Valley.

As for Heijo...... It's not empty either.

Now Yang Hong has recruited 2,000 new pawns, and he can just pull them out tonight to practice.

"Lord, please look, the vanguard of the Lingzhou Army has arrived in front of the valley!"

Overlooking the light of the fire at the bottom of the mountain, Feng Jie's expression was slightly nervous.

"It seems that the Lingzhou Army and Yuan Wanshan are really punctual."

Li Xingchen raised his eyes and looked.

Sure enough, when I saw the mouth of the Shuofang Valley, there was already a large amount of firelight slowly condensing.

"Lord, the big drama is about to start, let's go down the mountain!"

"It's okay, it's time to meet this old general Yuan for a while!"

Li Xingchen nodded.

Then took Feng Jie and strode down the mountain.

……

At this moment, Lingzhou pioneer Zhang Kun with his two thousand soldiers and horses has come to the mouth of Shuofang Valley.

I saw the fire swaying in Shuofang Valley, although it had already passed, there was still a team of armor soldiers holding Changge in their hands patrolling the night.

"How long will it take for General Yuan's main army to reach Shuofang Valley?"

Zhang Kun didn't dare to rush into the valley, so he had to ask the herald beside him.

"Back to the general, the main army will arrive in about two quarters of an hour."

"Two quarters of an hour? Why did General Yuan march so slowly? ”

"Listen to General Zhang Shun, in order to avoid alarming the Pingcheng army, General Yuan deliberately let the army advance steadily!"

"Then Old General Yuan has an order for our vanguard to attack Shuofang Valley on their own?"

"Nope!"

After figuring out the situation.

Zhang Kun had no choice but to let the vanguard army extinguish the torches and stay where they were.

It's silent, and it's as dark as ink.

Waiting in the quiet darkness is undoubtedly the most torturous.

In addition to the low breathing of the two thousand pioneers, their powerful heartbeats could be heard.

In a karst cave not far away, there is a pair of eyes staring at the mouth of Shuofang Valley, like a beast hidden in the shadows, ready to jump out and choose people to devour.

Two quarters of an hour later, the dull sound of horses' hooves could be heard on the mountain road in the distance.

Zhang Kun looked back and saw that the main army was surging.

"Vice General Zhang, how is the situation in Shuofang Valley? Can the enemy detect the arrival of our troops? ”

Yuan Wanshan rode his horse to the front of the army and asked Zhang Kun.

Zhang Kun replied: "Those armor soldiers are still patrolling the night, but their vigilance is not high, if our army rushes into the valley, we will be able to take Shuofang Valley in an instant!" ”

"In that case, then it is better to take your department as the vanguard and fight in Shuofang Valley!"

Yuan Wanshan stared at Shuofang Valley, his eyes blazing.

"The last general commands!"

Zhang Kun was overjoyed, and then shouted: "Brothers, follow me into Shuofang Valley and kill!" ”

Military orders are like mountains, and orders are executed!

In an instant, two thousand Lingzhou pioneers poured into Shuofang Valley under the leadership of Zhang Kun.

Pedal Pedal –

The iron riders opened the way, and the foot soldiers followed.

In just a few moments, two thousand Lingzhou pioneers had already rushed into Shuofang Valley.

"Not good, there is an enemy night attack!"

"Quick, retreat to the depths of the valley!"

"The Lingzhou Army of the dog day, it's so damn that they dare to attack Shuofang Valley at night!"

"Brothers, all retreat!"

Looking at the surging Lingzhou Vanguard Army.

A group of armor soldiers who were patrolling the night immediately woke up, and in a chaotic scolding, they began to retreat into the depths of Shuofang Valley.

Despite the suddenness of the situation in front of them, these armor soldiers retreated, not only extremely calmly, but also in an orderly manner.

"Fellow soldiers, follow this general to bulldoze Shuofang Valley in a wave!"

Zhang Kun was a little puzzled when he saw this, but the charge had already been launched, and there was no retreat.

Taking the lead, he immediately chased after him into the depths of Shuofang Valley.

The Lord is still so violent.

Those pioneers are naturally not cowards.

Almost at the same moment.

The two thousand vanguard warriors were like a group of beasts, scrambling to chase after the depths of Shuofang Valley.

Shuofang valley bottom.

A young general holding a Mo knife stood in front of the deep ditch, staring at the Lingzhou vanguard army that was getting closer and closer, and his eyes were full of fierce battle intent.

He was none other than Du Feilong, the centurion of the Shuofang Battalion.

After this period of tempering, he is no longer the ignorant teenager he used to be.

Because he overwhelmed all the armor soldiers in Shuofang's camp, even the veteran Xiong Tonghai was killed under him.

Therefore, Li Xingchen made an exception and promoted him to be a centurion, in charge of five hundred armor soldiers.
