The Ming officer smiled coldly and said mockingly: "If you have this ability, we will naturally speak and count!" Then he saw that the other man had no weapon in his hand, so he said to one of his soldiers, "Go and bring him his weapon." The soldier ran into the tent as promised, and after a few moments took Giuseppe's sword and crosssword, threw them in front of Giuseppe, and then withdrew into the crowd.

Seeing this, Giuseppe was secretly happy, and hurriedly bent down to pick up the cross sword, with the blade in his hand, and couldn't help but feel more confident. Giuseppe looked at the Ming officer opposite, and couldn't help but say, "These Ming people are really stupid, they actually agree to a duel with me at this time!" As soon as I thought of this, I couldn't help but look around from the corner of my eye, only to see that at this time, the general trend of my own side was gone, and the remnants of the defeated soldiers were running around, constantly being chased by the other party and cut to the ground! Giuseppe's heart couldn't help but feel a little frightened.

The Ming officer hooked his finger at the other party, "Let the horse come!" ”

Seeing that the other party's words and deeds were full of contempt, Giuseppe couldn't help but feel annoyed in his heart, and was determined to defeat this hateful Ming officer in one fell swoop, so that he would know that the Byzantine general was not easy to mess with! As soon as he thought of this, he immediately shouted, and rushed straight towards the Ming officer with both hands holding the cross sword, but he also looked imposing.

In the blink of an eye, Giuseppe rushed in front of the Ming officer, shouted, and slashed at the Ming officer with the cross sword in his hand from top to bottom!

The Ming officer jumped backwards and dodged the other man's blow. Seeing that the other party was dodging, Giuseppe couldn't help but boost his morale, and immediately roared and continued to attack, dancing with the cross sword in his hand, and attacking with several moves in a row, the Ming officer dodged one after another.

Giuseppe swept over with another move, but was dodged by the other party again. Giuseppe's hangover had not yet passed, and at this time, he attacked with all his strength, only to feel out of breath and unable to continue. At this moment, the Ming officer suddenly stepped forward! Giuseppe was taken aback, and even though he wanted to attack the opponent, the crosssword was raised high above his head. However, the speed of the Ming officer was faster than him, and he saw that he swung his sword with both hands and slashed at Giuseppe's cross sword, Giuseppe had just raised his sword over the top before he could slash it down, when he was slashed by the other party on the big sword, the center of gravity shifted backwards, and the whole person only felt unstable on his feet! At this moment, the Ming officer raised a foot and kicked heavily on Giuseppe's chest, Giuseppe snorted and fell backwards, fell heavily to the ground, and the cross sword in his hand was thrown out far away, only to feel that the internal organs were turning over the river and the sea, and he kept spitting out clear water, and he couldn't get up at all for a while!

The Daming military manager sneered: "With this three-legged cat's ability, he still dares to challenge the Ming warriors, I really don't know whether to live or die!" Take! ”

When even a few soldiers rushed up and put Giuseppe up. While enduring the pain, Giuseppe asked the Ming officer, "You, who are you?" ”

"Ming general, Shi Ping."

When Giuseppe heard of this name, his face couldn't help but show surprise, only to feel that this Shiping was much more powerful than the legend!

The battle soon ended, and the 10,000 Byzantine troops who remained in the large camp by the sea were completely annihilated, and not a single one escaped from Giuseppe down. The Ming army paid almost no price, and this battle can be said to be the easiest battle to win.

Yang Peng, accompanied by Yan Ji, entered the camp. Shi Ping, who had raided the camp, would immediately come over to pay his respects.

Yang Peng said to everyone: "Everything is going well. It is not advisable to stay here for a long time, and immediately leave a small part of the soldiers and horses to delay and contain the enemy, and the rest of the soldiers and horses will immediately march east with me. "All the generals agreed together.

When friends saw this, their heads may be a little dizzy, and they can't figure out what kind of medicine is sold in Yang Peng's gourd. In fact, Yang Peng's strategy, the army frequently shifted attacks to achieve the purpose of mobilizing the enemy army to tear apart the defensive line. Yang Peng did not intend to occupy Vladikavkazukah from the beginning, although the strategic location of Vladikavkazoka is very important, it is really difficult to hold it in Yang Peng's current situation. Approaching Vladikavkaz is very close to Byzantium proper, if the Byzantine side mobilizes a large army, Yang Peng's current situation of lack of ordnance and gunpowder and no reinforcements can hold the defense for more than ten days. Therefore, the seizure of Vladikavkaz was not Yang Peng's goal at all. From the very beginning, Yang Peng's aim was to capture the Byzantine army's seaside camp in order to break through their siege and support Yelu Hanyu.

Yang Peng led an army of 60,000 to the east, with the cavalry in front and the infantry in the rear. Yang Peng frowned, looking very worried. Because it has been four days since four days ago, and he has not received any news from Yelu Hanyu's side, and he doesn't know what the situation is going on, although Yang Peng keeps comforting himself, he still can't help but worry in his heart.

Yan Ji saw Yang Peng's worries, so she comforted: "Husband, don't worry. Yelu's wisdom and courage are not under her husband, she will definitely be able to save the day! Yang Peng smiled at Yan Ji, his expression seemed to be a little more relaxed, but in fact, he couldn't stop worrying in his heart. However, Yang Peng's worries are reasonable, in terms of the situation of Yelu Hanyu, in the face of the more than 300,000 troops led by the Byzantine Empress Cynthia, it is unbelievable to say that he can hold on for such a long time.

On the other side, Lambert sensed the danger of the camp and hurriedly gathered his army and left the Vladikavk to aid the camp. The army hurried and arrived at the camp in just three days. However, what greeted me was a bleak scene, with crows and vultures hovering overhead, corpses strewn across the ground, blood dripping, flags skewed, tents collapsing, and a disgusting stench in the air.

Although Lambert and the others already had a bad premonition in their hearts, they couldn't help but be shocked when they saw this scene with their own eyes. George couldn't help but say, "Enemy, the enemy is really coming to attack our camp!" ”

Lambert frowned and said, "The enemy army must have broken through to the east, and it must have gone to support Hu Si's ears." Then he said to George: "Immediately fly the pigeon and report this situation to Your Majesty." George answered, and immediately ordered his subordinates to bring pen and paper, and quickly wrote a letter, and then handed it to Lambert for review. Lambert read it, handed the letter back to George, and said: "One more sentence, our army is rushing eastward to pursue the Ming Emperor's headquarters, please Your Majesty divide an army to fight with me against the Ming Emperor." George immediately added this sentence and gave it to Lambert for review. When Lambert had confirmed that he was correct, he took George's pen and wrote a secret word at the end of the letter, which he gave to him to send out. George divided the letter and gave it to the herald, who ordered him to send it out at once.

After doing this, Lambert left a thousand men to clean up the scene, and he led his army eastward to pursue Yang Peng's Ming army. The army rolled eastward, and the camp was quiet after a while.

The 1,000 officers and soldiers who remained in the camp couldn't help but be depressed and cursed one after another when they saw the devastated corpses and blood in front of them.

The officers ordered the officers and soldiers to clean up the battlefield, and the officers and soldiers were busy in this ruin-like camp.

Suddenly, a corpse jumped up from the pile. Several Byzantine officers and soldiers who were preparing to clean up these corpses were terrified, and they thought that the corpses had changed! At this moment, the corpse slashed at him with a long knife. Several Byzantine officers and soldiers could not react, and they were seen on the ground by the 'corpse', and the screams rang out. At the same time, there are many 'corpses' who jump up and cut people. Where could the Byzantine soldiers think of this, they were suddenly cut down by many people, and the others were also shocked to see this sudden change.

Then someone shouted: "They are not dead people, they are Ming people!" At this time, hundreds of Ming soldiers seemed to have come out of the ground and attacked the Byzantine officers and soldiers! The Byzantine officers and soldiers were suddenly unprepared for the incident, and for a moment they were in a mess and were cut down to the ground. Seeing that a thousand Byzantine officers and soldiers were quickly wiped out, only a few remnants of the defeated army fled in panic. The Ming army did not pursue, and the officer who led the team ordered everyone: "Do according to the plan." The officers and soldiers answered, and immediately dispersed again.

It is said that Lambert is leading a large army to the east to pursue Yang Peng's troops and horses. However, before they had gone far, the officers and soldiers who had stayed behind in the aftermath of the camp rushed up to report the news of the attack. Lambert was greatly surprised, and then became suspicious of his judgment that Yang Peng led the army to support Yelutri, and he wondered if his judgment was wrong?

Lambert hesitated, but did not dare to move so recklessly, and immediately led the army back to the camp.

The army hurried back to the camp, but only saw corpses all over the ground, and half of the Ming army that launched the raid was gone.

Lambert feared an ambush, so he ordered most of his soldiers and horses to wait outside the barracks, and only ordered the general Enzo to lead tens of thousands of soldiers and horses into the camp to search.

Enzo led tens of thousands of soldiers and horses into the camp, paying special attention to the corpses and piles on the ground. Because according to the report of the defeated soldiers, the Ming army that raided them was hidden in the pile of corpses from the beginning. Enzo raised his voice and said, "All eyes wide! If there's something wrong with the corpse, give him a knife! The soldiers agreed with a bang, and then the sound of swords and guns came and went. At the same time, many people vomited because the stench of the scene was really unbearable. Enzo couldn't help but wonder: what kind of freaks are those Ming people? How can it be hidden in such a foul-smelling environment!?

Tens of thousands of soldiers and horses searched in the camp for a while, but they did not find any traces of the Ming army. Enzo thought that the enemy had left and was ready to report to Lambert. But just then, something happened.

Just as Enzo was about to lead his troops out of the foul-smelling barracks, something suddenly happened. A lot of sparks suddenly flew in from a place outside the barracks. An officer saw it and immediately pointed over there and shouted. Enzo hurriedly looked in the direction of his finger, and sure enough, he saw a lot of sparks flying into the barracks, and couldn't help frowning: "That's a rocket?" Who put it? ”

No one could answer him, and at this moment many fires broke out in the barracks, and they spread rapidly! Looking at the appearance and speed of the spread, it is obvious that bamboo pipes filled with fire oil are buried in the ground everywhere in the barracks! Enzo realized that something was wrong and immediately shouted, "Something is wrong! Get out! Then he led the soldiers of the army to rush outside. At the same time, the soldiers outside the barracks were very surprised to see that a fire had suddenly broken out in the barracks and that it was spreading very quickly.

Enzo rushed straight outside the barracks, and at the same time, two fire dragons were rapidly spreading from the left and right, as if to cut off Enzo's escape route.

It was too late, but it was too late, and Enzo rode out before the two dragons could close! He was followed by hundreds of pro-soldiers around him. However, as soon as the hundreds of them rushed out, the two fire dragons collided violently and cut off the escape route. The 20,000 or 30,000 officers and men who followed closely behind could not get out and were huddled together. Seeing the flames burning in all directions and approaching, these officers and soldiers were terrified and did not know what to do.

Enzole turned his horse's head and saw that tens of thousands of officers and soldiers under his command were trapped in the barracks, and the situation was very critical, so he urgently ordered his own soldiers to put out the fire, and at the same time sent people to ask the marshal for help.

Lambert didn't need Enzo to ask for help, he had already sent people to fight the fire and save people, but the army did not dare to move, he was afraid that the Ming army lying in ambush around would appear and attack them at any time.

More than 10,000 soldiers rushed to the side of the barracks to extinguish the fire, but they could not take care of this end, but they couldn't take care of that end, the fire spread to the tent and the many ordnance materials abandoned in the barracks, burning fiercely, the flames were grounded and the teeth and claws were dancing, and the efforts of more than 10,000 soldiers did not play any role at all, and the flames were still burning more and more, and later, even those officers and soldiers who tried to extinguish the fire were burned a lot, and they were forced to retreat by the scorching heat.

The tens of thousands of people trapped in the barracks couldn't help but retreat to the area where the fire had not yet burned in the middle, looking at the flames around them like demons with fangs and claws, and only felt terrified and helpless to the extreme.

Lambert rode his horse to the periphery, looked at the situation in front of him, and frowned: "It's impossible to put out the fire, they can only do it themselves." The secretary turned his head to the soldiers around him and said, "Everyone shouted together, telling them to find whatever they wanted, blankets or something, get wet, and then wrap themselves and rush out!" The soldiers immediately shouted according to Ambert's order. Loud shouts rang out through the curtain of fire and into the fiery barracks.

When the officers and men who were at a loss heard the words coming from outside, they looked around like drowning people grasping a life-saving straw, and they looked around for something that could wrap them. So the flags and blankets scattered on the ground were picked up, and those who did not grab the flags and blankets had to draw their swords and cut off a piece of the tent. At this time, life and death were at stake, and everyone didn't care about the bloody water under their feet, and they all invaded the blood water in their hands. Then he wrapped himself in the stinking and blood-drenched thing, and rushed into the flames.

Those who stayed on the periphery only saw people rushing out wrapped in blankets, and because the flames were too large, those who rushed out were often carrying the fire on their backs. Seeing this, the people who were guarding outside rushed up to help put out the fire. People kept rushing out, but many more died in the flames and let out terrible screams. Even if they are lucky enough to rush out, they are often burned to the point of screaming, and they are miserable.

After a lot of commotion, no one rushed out anymore. By this time, the flames had completely engulfed the entire barracks. Everyone couldn't help but look at the flames in a daze, if it weren't for the wounded soldiers' incessant wailing and screaming, the scene would have been silent.

Lambert immediately counted the casualties. Soon the casualties were reported: "More than 26,000 of our troops entered the barracks, and only 8,000 escaped......

Everyone looked at each other, but they didn't expect that a fire would burn almost 20,000 of their own soldiers and horses. George couldn't help but say, "These Ming people are so sinister and cunning! Who would have thought that they would have such an arrangement! These Ming people are really the hearts of tigers, leopards and jackals! Enzo shouted angrily, "Fuck their ancestors!" If I catch them, I'll have them torn to pieces!" ”

Lambert ordered the cavalry to disperse his guard, and then led the infantry to a nearby hill and camped down.

At this time, the scouts who had been scattered before came back, and they all reported that they had not found any traces of the Ming army within a range of more than 20 miles.

George said very strangely, "This is so strange! Why is there no main force of the Ming Dynasty around? If there is a main force lying in ambush around, although our army will not be completely annihilated, it will definitely pay a heavy price! Enzo said angrily: "What do you want to do so much!" Since there is no Ming army around, we should hurry east to pursue that Yang Peng! Several generals nodded in agreement.

Lambert frowned and muttered, "Emperor Ming should be going to rescue Hu Si next, so he just wants to contain us, but he doesn't want to delay too much time here." ”

Enzo sneered: "Go to the rescue of Hu Si and cut off his ears? Hu Si's ears are still captured by us, and he still goes to rescue a ghost! ”

Lambert said: "The Ming Emperor should not know this. After a pause, he said to the generals: "From now on, we must be extremely careful in our actions, and we must not give the other party any opportunity to take advantage of it." All the scouts were scattered around the army, and all the horses were lined up at the front and rear, ready to deal with the unexpected. The infantry should also be ready to fight at any time. "All the generals agreed together.

Lambert, seeing that the army was very tired after this hectic incident, wanted to rest the army on the spot for the night, and then march east early tomorrow morning. However, on second thought, it is the other party's goal to delay one's own army, and if it stops here for another night, wouldn't it be in the hands of the enemy? At this thought, Lambert dismissed any intention of resting, and ordered the whole army to rest for a while, except for dinner, and then immediately marched eastward. The officers and men of the army were very tired, and they cursed one after another when they got this military order, but the military order was like a mountain, and although the officers and men of the army cursed on their mouths, they did not dare to slack off at all.

It is said that Yang Peng led an army of 60,000 to the east, and met refugees fleeing from the east on the way. Upon inquiry, it was learned that Hu Si's ears had been lost a few days ago. And after the Byzantine army entered the city, they carried out a brutal massacre, it is said that the entire city was filled with corpses, and all the remaining Ming soldiers were killed! As soon as Yang Peng learned the news, he panicked, and immediately rushed to Hu Si to cut his ears with all his ears.

The generals couldn't persuade them, and in the end, Yan Ji said: "Don't worry, husband, these refugees fled in a panic, and what they said is not correct." I think Yelu is both wise and brave, and no matter what situation he encounters, he will definitely be able to deal with it calmly, and he will never fall into the hands of the enemy. Besides, now that the situation is critical, the husband is most needed to deal with it calmly and turn the tide, if the husband loses his senses, I am afraid that Yelu, who is waiting for the husband's rescue, will really lose hope! ”

Yang Peng's heart was shocked, and he couldn't help but calm down and nodded lightly. Yan Ji, who watched the play, said gratefully: "Thank you!" Yan Ji Yanran said: "You and I are husband and wife, why do you say this thank you!" Yang Peng couldn't help but hold Yan Ji's slender hand, his eyes met, and everything was silent.

Seeing that Yang Peng had calmed down, the generals couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, they were really worried that Yang Peng would really rush to Hu Si to cut his ears together when he was anxious.

Yang Peng frowned and thought: "The top priority is to find out the situation on Hu Si's ears!" It's been so many days, why hasn't there been any news? Is it all gone, including the carrier pigeons? At this point, Yang Peng couldn't help but feel anxious. Immediately forcibly suppressed these chaotic thoughts, he asked Yan Ji, "How many carrier pigeons do we have?" Yan Ji said: "There are only two left." The others have been sent according to the husband's orders, but so far there has been no reply. ”

Yang Peng nodded, thought for a while, and said to Li Lang: "Li Lang, there are scouts in the department, and they will make a detour to enter Hu Siwei's ears and investigate the situation." Li Lang said yes and ran down. Yang Peng said to Li Xu and the others: "Pass the order, and the army will continue to advance eastward." Li Xu waited for a promise and ran down.

Yang Peng turned to look at the eastern sky, his thoughts couldn't help but fly to Hu Sihu's ears, and his brows furrowed tightly. I couldn't help muttering: "Mei'er, you must not have anything!" Waiting for the big brother, the big brother will be here soon! Yan Ji couldn't help but be jealous when she saw Yang Peng like this on the side, but after thinking about it, if she and Yelu changed positions, her husband would definitely be in the same hurry. Thinking of this, the feeling of jealousy in Yan Ji's heart was replaced by a sweet feeling.

Yang Peng led the army to continue to advance eastward. Although Yang Peng was unwilling, he had prepared for the worst at the moment, if the worst situation was on the side of Hu Si's ears, then he would lead his army to enter the Green Ridge area through the Amu Darya River on the south side of the Khorezm Sea, and resist the enemy army according to the Green Ridge, wait for the arrival of reinforcements and then counterattack the enemy army. Yang Peng didn't want to really come to this point, but judging from the current situation, I am afraid that he can only do this. Now his greatest hope is to hope that Mei'er is safe and sound, but under the nest, there are eggs, Hu Si's ears have fallen, and the army has collapsed, can Mei'er really be auspicious? The more Yang Peng thought about it, the more restless he became.

After all, what happens next, let's see how it will be broken down next time.
