In the city of Western Liao, Zhang Zhongliang, Lu Junyong, Mary, Ba Nanye, Niko, and Yueguang were discussing countermeasures.

Zhang Zhongliang looked at Lu Junyong and asked, "Brother Lu Junyong, how is the artificial lake progressing?" ”

Lu Junyong replied: "The periphery of the square circle has been basically delineated. It's just that the construction period is too slow. ”

Zhang Zhongliang said: "It has been six days since the troops were sent to block the attack, and I am afraid that such progress will be wasted." Zhang Zhongliang said this and turned to Mary, "Can you send out 40,000 soldiers to assist Brother Lu Junyong temporarily?" ”

Mary: "Yes, but after two days the soldiers will have to be transferred back to the headquarters to rest before the battle. ”

Lu Junyong was overjoyed and said: "Haha, thank you princess, thank you so much!" ”

Zhang Zhongliang said: "Brother Lu Junyong, I will lend you another 10,000 yuan for the reserve mobile horses, and you must complete it on time." ”

Lu Junyong said: "Order." ”

Then, Zhang Zhongliang turned to Ba Nanye and asked, "How is the situation of the 100,000 army you lead, how is the situation of chopping wood?" ”

Ba Nanye patted his chest and said: "The prince can rest assured, the back mountain has become a Guangshan Mountain, and all the grass and trees on the mountain have been transported outside the city, and tomorrow we will continue to cut down trees within a radius of ten miles, but the wood still needs to be split and dried, otherwise the trees cannot be used." ”

Zhang Zhongliang said: "This is very good, we will know when we inspect it tomorrow." ”

Early the next morning, Zhang Zhongliang, Lu Junyong, Mary, Daylight, and Moonlight came all the way to inspect. Tens of thousands of soldiers were carrying their shoulders on the surface of the lake, and they were in full swing.

Zhang Zhongliang: "Brother Lu Junyong, the bottom of the lake doesn't need to be too deep, the water doesn't reach your knees, remember, remember." ”

Lu Junyong comprehended: "Rest assured, coach, 400,000 living beings, haha......"

Zhang Zhongliang, Mary, Ba Nanye, Niko, and Moonlight traveled all the way. Many soldiers are chopping firewood to dry, and they are not slacking; Another soldier was carrying firewood, rolling in. Zhang Zhongliang nodded approvingly.

Bao Nanye asked: "Marshal, how will so many firewood be placed at that time?" ”

Zhang Zhongliang replied: "Just tile at will." ”

Ba Nanye looked at Zhang Zhongliang puzzled, "This ...... There is firewood everywhere, and when the king of Jizo sees it, doesn't he become suspicious? ”

Zhang Zhongliang said with a smile: "He doesn't have to be suspicious, so he asks him to help." ”

Ba Nanye still looked at Zhang Zhongliang puzzled and said, "This? ”

"After cutting down within ten miles, you can cut down all the trees at the place where the crown princess is stationed." Zhang Zhongliang pointed to the mountains and forests not far away and said decisively.

Mary stood aside, looked at Bao Nanye, and interjected: "The prince's clever plan, you can chop wood, and you will know when the time comes." ”

……

Besides, after the great army of Tong and the army of the king of Jizo, after more than a dozen rounds of fighting, the great army of Tong Wei feigned defeat and retreated, and the king of Jizo chased after him.

King Jizo chased him to a steep pass, reined in his horse and asked, "Where is the front?" ”

Tan Malay reported: "Qi Ji Zao King, the front is called the Wild Goose Cliff." ”

When the king of Jizo heard this, he was shocked on his horse: "Wild goose cliff? ”

Tanma: "Exactly. This goes to the West Liao City, the wild goose cliff is the most precipitous, known as a husband when the pass, ten thousand people do not open, now the wild goose cliff has found an ambush. ”

The king of Jizo dismounted, and as far as the eye could see, the wild goose cliff was on the cloudy sky, and the defeated army of Tong Wei had crossed the cliff one after another.

Stragglers can already be seen on the cliffs.

King Jizo: "Pass my order, poor Kou Mo chase." Gather people from all walks of life and go all out to cross the cliff. ”

King Jizo moved on. Suddenly, a large number of rolling stones and sassalwoods were thrown from the cliff, and the people of the Jizo King urgently retreated.

General: "King Jizo, I will send someone to attack the back mountain." Destroy the defenders on the cliff. ”

King Jizo shook his head: "With such a steep cliff, you have no chance of winning when you wait to go up the mountain. ”

General: "The subordinates will send people to rush again." ”

King Jizo: "Don't be impatient, you must cross the cliff today." He walked up to the front and looked at the top of the cliff. But I saw that the top of the cliff was towering into the clouds, and half of the wall was shady and lush.

King Jizo ordered: "Set fire." ”

Many soldiers lit torches and lit them up along the foot of the mountain, and the flames suddenly joined together and burned upward.

In a moment, I heard the crying and screaming of the mountaintop one after another.

Tong Wei's soldiers fled in confusion. With a wave of the tin staff of the king of Jizo, all the soldiers rushed through the cliff mouth.

Wei Jue and Wang Yihu commanded 50,000 soldiers to set up an ambush in the valley.

Soldiers are like ants. The army of the king of Jizo crossed the mountains.

From a distance, the mountains are undulating.

The king of Jizo again reined in his horse and looked ahead.

Not far ahead, in the valley, the smoke was cloudy, and the King of Jizo stopped and frowned, observing carefully.

The general approached the king of Jizo and said, "The subordinates seem to be foggy, so there is nothing strange about it. ”

King Jizo: "This is not fog, but dust. The fog is erratic, and the dust is falling sharply, and there must be tens of thousands of ambush soldiers in such dust. ”

General: "What will happen then?" ”

King Jizo: "This valley is the only way for our army. It would be strange that there was no ambush. The order went down, and the valley was burned, leaving not a single grass behind. ”

King Jizo and his generals sat on a high earthen bag, took off their dry food, and began to eat.

In the valley, a fire broke out from the sky.

Wei Jue's soldiers were burned to the ground and fled out of the valley one after another.

King Jizo laughed heartily with the generals.

Generals: "The King of Jizo is clever, I can't wait for the King of Jizo to be arrogant: "Hahahaha!" ”

……

Wang Erhan put his hands behind his back and paced anxiously in front of the throne, and the ministers were silent.

Qin looked at Wang Erhan with a twisted beard.

Wang Erhan turned around: "Say, are you all dumb?" ”

Minister A: "Your Majesty, for the sake of today's plan, Your Majesty should also seek a way out. His Majesty can repair a letter asking for peace and send it to the tent of the king of Jizo, hoping that the peace may be alive. ”

Minister B: "Your Majesty, since the horse worships the general, the city has been lost, all four battles have been lost, and tomorrow there is only the princess's last line of defense, which is worrying!" ”

Wang Erhan: "In your opinion, will it be possible to change the battle?" ”

Minister B: "To change or not to change, it is a certainty." What has happened since the horse worshipped? In addition to losing every battle, he actually wanted to get into trouble, and even dug some artificial lake in the west of the city, the water was not as deep as his knees, how to kill the enemy, and raise ducks. ”

Minister C: "Mobilize 100,000 troops to go up the mountain to chop wood, and now the back mountain has become a light mountain, and there will be no green within 30 miles in a few days, which is ridiculous!" ”

Wang Er was furious, and waved his hand: "You can run for your life quickly." ”

The ministers talked about it and retreated one after another.

Wang Er still twisted his beard when he saw Qin Yong: "The national teacher seems to have something to say?" ”

Qin Yong: "I think that the queen has a good eye and will win this battle." ”

Wang Erhan: "The national teacher still has something to laugh about? ”

Qin Yong is mysterious: "After some time, you will know." ”

Mary set up a formation, ready to meet the king of Jizo.

Behind Mary are Shan Dan, Hao Tianlei, Chen Yumei, Tong Wei, Bajian, Wei Jue, and Wang Yihu, all of whom have been listed with their departments.

From a distance, the army of the Jizo King was swept in the dust.

The two armies faced each other, and the king of Jizo ordered them to line up against the enemy.

After a while, the array was over, and the king of Jizo flashed out of the array, patted his horse and drove forward, and went straight to the formation of the two armies.

Mary rode her horse forward.

King Jizo: "Who is coming?" ”

Mary: "Mary, the princess of the Western Liao Kingdom, is also, but the one who came is the king of Jizo?" ”

King Jizo: "This king never fights with women and children, you can ask your husband Zhang Zhongliang to come to fight." ”

Mary: "Before the princess left, the husband repeatedly instructed him to sympathize with each other, and he said that the mercy of the king of Jizo is known to the whole world, and he will never let the 400,000 army die in vain, so that I must not go to war with you today, you are a tired army, and I will wait here for a few days, and the result of today's war will be self-evident without a fight." You can rest assured that you will set up camp, I will not harass, how about waiting for you to rest for a day and fight again tomorrow? ”

King Jizo sneered: "Haha, thank you princess for your kindness." This king can't bear to fight hard, here is only thirty miles away from Xiliao, the heavenly soldiers are here, whether it is a battle or a surrender, let you think twice tonight. ”

Mary: "Okay, it's a word, don't harass tonight, go to war tomorrow, and show no mercy." ”
