Volume 3 Vertical and Horizontal Donglu Chapter 229 In order to get ahead

On the north and south sides of the island city, the scouts of the Nanhuai army and the Donglu army immediately fought and fought as soon as they first came into contact, and the team of dozens of people only killed more than half of the losses of both sides, and then they supported each other's comrades-in-arms and left the battlefield.

In one day, the scouts of the two armies fought nearly 100 battles, and the scouts alone killed more than hundreds of people.

Li Dingxing stood outside the tent of the commander of the Nanhuai army, watching one after another seriously injured scouts being carried by the camp gate, silent.

"The news from the west has been blocked, and I don't know if Yi Xiaodao is coming or not, so it's not a way to go on like this." Xiang Lian'er walked up to Li Dingxing and said worriedly.

"Last time, I heard that Dongfang Zhong was driven out of Jicheng by Yi Xiaodao, and now he has come to this island city. Yi Xiaodao will definitely come, but I don't know when it will come... You can't send scouts from the Nanhuai Army anymore, the Nanhuai Army is not good at land warfare, and when it encounters the Donglu Army, it is not an opponent at all..."Li Dingxing sighed.

At this time, Fan Jun came over: "Why don't I take someone there, I have been to this island city a few times before, and the terrain is quite familiar, and when I meet Dongfang Zhong's spies again, no one can help me!" ”

Zheng Kang and Lu Liguang followed behind: "The two of us can also convey the news." ”

Fan Jun turned his head to look at the two of them, and said dissatisfiedly: "Why do you have to fight for everything?" It's not a fun, damn thing, you know? ”

Zheng Kang and Lu Liguang are the previous ghost knife Liu and the one-eyed snake, the three of them were already friends when they were in Yi Xiaodao's military camp, and they would fight and make trouble on weekdays, but they didn't quarrel with Fan Jun again today.

"Since I entered the camp, I haven't made an inch, and I still ask for the command of the loyal public!"

Fan Jun looked at the two people who took the initiative to invite Ying, feeling both strange and cordial, the strangeness was that they no longer had that gangsterism, which was completely different from before. But the cordiality feels that these two people now also give people a sense of down-to-earth and reliable.

Fan Jun doesn't understand the love of the robe in the army, and he thinks it's almost like brotherhood, but now he estimates that this is it, and when it's important, he feels that this person can be relied on...

Li Dingxing and Xiang Lian'er glanced at each other and nodded slightly: "Your ability, ordinary Donglu spies really can't do anything about you, but you have to remember, don't fall in love with war, once you hear the news, report immediately, even if you don't hear any news, you can go, as long as you stay alive." ”

"Thank you!" The two replied sonorously, then grinned at Fan Jun, and went down to prepare.

Fan Jun saw that the two of them were ordered to leave, and he became an idle person again, and was about to leave, but was stopped by Li Dingxing: "Fan Haohan, there is still something I need to ask you." ”

Fan Jun hurriedly turned around: "I didn't go far, the hero didn't dare to be a hero, and the loyal prince ordered it." ”

"I will allocate the Nanhuai Army to you, you will lead the Nanhuai Army to guard the coast, and never let a single Donghuai person go ashore! Can it be done? Li Dingxing asked in a deep voice.

"The grass people take the order!" Fan Jun saw that he had something to do, and immediately became happy, although he felt that something was wrong, why did he send the Nanhuai Army to his own dispatch. But at this time, I can't take care of much, so I just say that I can do it.

After Fan Jun left, Xiang Lian'er exposed Li Dingxing's thoughts: "You let Fan Jun lead the Nanhuai army to block the Dongwei people, because you were afraid that he would be the enemy of Dongfang Zhong... Is it being rebelled? ”

Li Dingxing walked into the handsome tent, Xiang Lian'er followed behind, Li Dingxing cried and said with a smile: "I have to guard against it, we don't know how many soldiers and horses Dongfang Zhong has, whether Fan Jun really surrenders to the imperial court, and we don't know if he follows Yi Xiaodao, the two uncertain situations are put together, I don't know how many variables will be born." ”

Xiang Lian'er nodded, what Li Dingxing said was indeed true, and the loyalty of the wave camp really needs to be tested.

Night fell quietly, Zheng Kang drank Lu Liguang and the others had eaten and drunk enough, prepared horses, selected more than 20 shrewd and capable younger brothers, and went out of the camp. There is no cheering in the cottage in the past, there is no horse whistle, there are only cold eyes and sharp weapons.

"Go south and go north?" Zheng Kang asked out loud.

"The island city is bordered by the sea in the south, and even if there is a large army, there will not be many people. Go South! Lu Liguang said categorically.

The two of them led the men and horses to the south of the city, and after a short journey, they saw a group of men and horses in the distance also coming this way. There is still shade on their side, and the other party has not noticed them yet.

"There are twelve people in total, one for me and Zheng Kang, one for the two of you, just one round! Don't miss a shot! Lu Liguang said to the people behind him.

Everyone took advantage of the faint moonlight to choose their respective targets, and Lu Liguang and Zheng Kang took the lead in rushing out.

Before the other party could react, they were slashed by Lu Liguang and Zheng Kang, and they fell off their horses. The two of them hit each other and turned their horses' heads away from the left and right to avoid being surrounded by each other.

The twenty or so brothers behind him were only a beat slower than the two, and as soon as the two turned their horses' heads and dispersed, the two sides fought head-on. The cold light flickered, and blood splattered.

The fight began quickly and ended quickly, and in the blink of an eye, all the opposing centaurs were killed, and only a few people on their side were wounded.

"Let's go!" Zheng Kang shouted, and everyone disappeared into the night and ran towards the west of the city.

In the military camp of the Donglu Army, the three of Jiuyinlou were closing their eyes to calm their nerves. The old man is skinny and skinny, with a hint of fairy wind; The young woman is dressed in white and dressed, white as if she is not stained by mortal dust; The child wears a peach hair and a collar around his neck. Suddenly, the child opened his eyes and looked out of the tent.

"Something?" Dongfang Zhong noticed the child's abnormality.

"There are two... A little hard stubble, here. To stop or not to stop? The child asked.

Dongfang Zhong asked, "My people didn't stop me?" ”

"With mental calculation and unintentional, the general's command is vulnerable. Even if there is a real fight, the general's side has little chance of winning. Don't look at it as a group of bitter haha, there are still some capable people in these bitter haha. The child said endlessly.

"Okay, don't say more, mortal dust has nothing to do with us, if you want to go, you can go." The old man said from the side.

When the child heard the old man's words, he dispelled his thoughts, and then sat cross-legged again.

Dongfang Zhong saw that the three people of Jiuyinlou were chattering, and called the deputy general on the side: "Bring more people and stop them." ”

"My lord, go south and north?" The adjutant asked.

"What's the best way to go?" Dongfang Zhong squinted and asked.

"The south side is close to the coast, the road is not smooth, and the north side is easy to walk."

"Then go south! Hum. "Dongfang Zhong is also well versed in the art of war and knows the truth of avoiding the real and attacking the false.

After the deputy general left, Dongfang Zhong wanted to chat with the three of Jiuyinlou, but the three of them just closed their eyes and meditated, and ignored nothing else.

Dongfang Zhong muttered in his heart, these three people said to help me, but I don't know if it's true or not. When they came up, they injured one of their lieutenants, and now they are still lying down to recuperate, but they are fine, and they are meditating and participating in meditation here.

Dongfang Zhong didn't bother the three of them in the end, and now at this time, Jiuyinlou sent them here, it made sense, and he couldn't be in a hurry.

In fact, Dongfang Zhong now has an army of nearly 100,000 people, and he still has nothing to fear. Strictly speaking, the Dongfang family has been entrenched in Donglu for even longer than the Donglu king, who has been handed down for 600 years. As long as he Dongfang Zhong is still alive, there will still be someone in Donglu who will serve the Dongfang family. If it is once submissive to the imperial court, under the influence of the imperial court, the Dongfang family can only disappear in the long river of history.

Zheng Kang and Lu Liguang didn't run far away, and Dongfang Zhong's lieutenant came over on horseback, this time, it was Zheng Kang and Lu Liguang who didn't notice each other.

"Buzz!"

A spear was thrown from a distance, the two were shocked, and hurriedly pulled out their weapons to block, Lu Liguang cut the spear into two sides with a knife, but the other half shot backwards, and was kicked away by Zheng Kang.

"It's so strongβ€”" Both of them had come into contact with the spear, and they were secretly amazed at the power of the spear.

"Buzz!"

The spears in the sky were thrown at us.

The two of them were shocked, brandishing weapons to parry, and the sound of gold and iron was endless. The two of them could barely support themselves, but the younger brothers behind them were shot dead dozens of people on the spot, and only six people were left to hide behind the horses before they escaped.

"Go back?" Zheng Kang asked.

"Can't go back! If you go back, you have to be ridiculed for shrinking your head, and you will have no chance to turn over in this life! Lu Liguang turned his horse and shouted to the younger brothers behind him: "Your war horse is dead, go back, we are here to delay for you for a while." ”

The younger brothers looked at the corpses of the brothers all over the ground, and then looked at the opposite side, and a general in armor came out, and there were hundreds of soldiers behind him.

"Big brother, let's go together!"

"Yes, big brother, let's go our separate ways, we don't have horses, wait until we go to the forest with a cat, they won't find us."

"Big brother, there are too many people on the other side."

Lu Liguang held the knife in both hands, raised the long knife, kicked the horse's belly with his feet, and rushed out single-handedly: "I told you to go!" ”

"Wait for me!" Zheng Kang also patted his horse and followed.

In the past, when Lu Liguang and Zheng Kang were bandits, they were also different mountains. Later, they took refuge in Yi Xiaodao together, and after eating and living together for so long, they all felt that the other party was deeply chatty, and gradually there was a trace of sympathy. Now that Lu Liguang has rushed up, Zheng Kang has no reason to sit idly by.

"Zheng Kang, wait for me to entangle them, you can leave when you have a chance!" Lu Liguang whispered to Zheng Kang beside him.

"No, let's go together!" Zheng Kang refused directly without thinking about it: "Zhongyi Gong also said, it's really not a big deal to go back." ”

Lu Liguang chuckled: "We also have to think about our brothers, and in the future, the brothers will still point to Master Yi to get ahead!" As a result, I followed two cowardly bosses, and I won't be mixed up in the future? You must rush over and find Master Yi later! The first thing that Zhongyi Gong must do is not to smash his hands! ”

Before Zheng Kang could reply, the other party had already greeted him, and he raised his hand with an axe and swept over.

Lu Liguang set up the long knife, blocked the big axe, and even the war horse under his crotch was vigorously pressed sideways by two steps. Lu Liguang jumped up from his horse, and knocked the other party off the horse with the weapons that the two of them blocked.

The deputy general knocked off the horse, and the soldiers behind him rushed one after another, and Zheng Kang showed a trace of space here. Zheng Kang nodded to Lu Liguang, and rushed over from the gap.

"Big brother, don't be afraid, we're here!" The remaining six soldiers of the Wave Battalion flashed around and rushed to Lu Liguang's side.

"Good! Our seven brothers are having a good time today! Lu Liguang raised a long knife in his hand and looked up to the sky and laughed.

He saw that Zheng Kang had run away.
