It turned out that today's attack was all arranged by Liu Botao in advance, and the 20,000 cavalry were also carefully selected by him from Xishan Pass.

This sudden dispatch of troops was aimed at crushing the Xinzhou army in one fell swoop, and if Yang Feng had been told in advance, Yang Feng might not be able to fully realize his full potential.

And all this was secretly told to Liu Botao by Xiao Tiantu in advance.

Yang Feng looked at the soldiers under the city shouting at them, recalling the scene and feeling of Fang Cai, he couldn't imagine that he had such internal strength, and when he secretly breathed, he found that the qi around him was smooth, and there was no disobedience.

The opportunity that Xuanqing talked about is to let them have no distractions when they are in danger, and give full play to the realm they should have, which is to break the realm.

After Liu Botao also slowed down, in the face of Liang Zuo's powerful Xinzhou army, Liu Botao chose to take the battalion step by step, and waited until seven months later, after the recovery of Suqing and Qingzhou, and the transfer of 30,000 troops from Luzhou, Liu Botao ordered an official ambush on all sides of Xinzhou.

At that time, the Tibetan soldiers were killing each other, some of them let Liang Zuo take them in, and the other part saw that the general trend had chosen to surrender to the imperial court, and Cheng Shiyong led the troops into Tibet and acted as the chief soldier of Tibet.

......

Liang Zuo became the last hero.

When the ambush was on all sides, Xinzhou relied on the fertile land of northern Xinjiang, but it was self-sufficient, and with no worries in the rear, Liang Zuo pressed most of his troops to the front line.

Under Julu City, Xinzhou, Liu Botao shouted to Liang Zuo, to the north is a wasteland, there is no grass, no one will follow him anymore, and the border to the south has been controlled by the imperial army. If you are willing to surrender, you can avoid death.

Liang Zuo was not afraid of death, and said on the city tower: "Since I have come to the front line, I am ready to die. If General Liu really has a strong martial strategy, he can use it, and Liang Zuo will follow!"

After Julu City is the main city of Xinzhou, from Julu City, the army can take a lot of detours, and it can also kill a lot of people, which Liang Zuo and Liu Botao are aware of. Liu Botao calculated that if Liang Zuo was subdued, the other Xinzhou troops would lose their support and surrender without a fight.

And Liang Zuo concentrated the most elite troops to defend this precipitous giant deer city, and he also expected Liu Botao to attack this side.

Liang Zuo even looked down on Liu Botao from the bottom of his heart, because Liu Botao was still too merciful, if it was Liang Zuo himself, he would rather let the army shed more blood and conquer Xinzhou as soon as possible.

"I wonder if the two generals dare to come down and fight with me?" Liu Botao suddenly sent an invitation to Liang Zuo, and Liang Zuo frowned and asked, "Heads-up?"

"Heads-up. Liu Botao said lightly.

"Brother Bo Tao, you are crazy!" Shangguan Yunfei was beside him, and hurriedly whispered: "Liang Zuo is the number one halberd in the world, how can you beat him!"

Before Shangguan Yunfei finished speaking, Liu Botao drove forward, and Shangguan Yunfei and the three of them just wanted to follow closely, but they were stopped by Xia Yuanshan.

I only heard Xia Yuanshan say lightly: "You have to believe in General Liang." ”

When Liu Botao was within the range of the Xinzhou army, someone on the city tower suddenly raised a bow and crossbow, and Liang Zuo shouted: "Put it down!"

......

The city gate was wide open, and Liang Zuo, dressed in a white robe and silver armor, went out of the city gate with the encouragement of all the soldiers. The soldiers on the tower cheered.

Coupled with Liang Zuo's tall and strong body, holding a halberd, Yang Feng and the others were amazed for a while, and only then did they think of Liu Botao's remarks last night that if Liang Zuo did not rebel, he could be the first fierce general of my dynasty.

Liu Botao was holding a spear in his hand, full of confidence, and he seemed to be on a par with Liang Zuo in terms of momentum.

Liang Zuo frowned slightly and looked at Liu Botao and said with a smile: "General Liu, I thought you were just a Confucian general, relying on Liu Shiqi's prestige in the army to lead the army, I really didn't expect that you would use a gun." ”

Liu Botao looked up to the sky and laughed a few times and said: "I can command the army, because Your Majesty knows that I am both civil and military, just as Your Majesty also knows that General Liang is brave." ”

Liang Zole stopped the restless war horse under the seat and said: "In this way, I am fortunate to compete today." ”

Liu Botao also said happily: "You and I are both the main generals of the two armies, and today we are each in the vanguard, and we can also be called a beautiful talk in the history books in the future." "Central Plains Book Bar

"Well said!" Liang Zuo said, the halberd flipped over, and he made a good posture.

Liu Botao also carried the spear cross-body to his back.

The two looked at each other for a while, and they didn't know who urged the war horse first, and the other person quickly met them.

There was a burst of smoke and dust, and only the sound of iron colliding in the smoke and dust was heard, and after the smoke and dust dissipated, you could see the immediate kung fu of Liang Zuo and Liu Botao, the white-robed generals.

Both of them are long weapons, so they are not very close.

Yang Feng saw Liu Botao and this Liang Zuo going back and forth next to Shangguan Yunfei, and couldn't help but sigh: "It turns out that General Liu still has this hand." ”

Shangguan Yunfei was also a little stupid, and said: "It seems that Brother Bo Tao has been in Lingnan for so many years, and he really has two hits. ”

......

After more than 30 moves between the two, suddenly Liang Zuo broke out, first leaning over the horse's back, and its halberd turned from its back like a wind wheel.

But it's a pity that this is completely Liang Zuo's behavior.

This gust of wind, the tip of the halberd swept in, Liu Botao had to pull out the gun and retreat, but Liang Zuo stood up, and the halberd then drove straight in, picking up Liu Botao's spear, and when he was about to sweep Liu Botao, Liu Botao rolled off the war horse, and then got up and ran towards his army.

Shangguan Yunfei and the three of them saw it and hurried to pick it up, and the morale of the Xinzhou army on the city tower reached its peak at this moment. Liang Zuo stood at the city gate alone, looking at the imperial army not far away, without a trace of fear.

Xia Yuanshan ordered Ming Jin to withdraw his troops, and the imperial army's army retreated to the camp today in the ending where the lord would be picked off his horse.

......

When night fell, Yang Feng and the others were inexplicably called out that Liu Botao was in the barracks, and Yang Feng was still discussing with Shangguan Yunfei and Shangguan Yunxiong whether their generals were tigers, but when they entered the barracks, they found that all Liu Botao's generals were there, and Liu Botao was not injured at all.

It turned out that this was Liu Botao's arrogant strategy, and he expected that Liang Zuo would be cautious of himself, so he would not send troops without authorization. Julu City is easy to defend and difficult to attack, if Liang Zuo can relax his guard and send elite troops to attack him, it is an excellent strategy. For this reason, Liu Botao did not hesitate to take risks and lose to Liang Zuo in the formation of the two armies, so that Liang Zuo, including the entire Xinzhou army, really thought that Liu Botao was vain and vulnerable.

When asked if this would affect morale, Liu Botao said lightly: "After winning the battle, the momentum will rise." ”

Sure enough, after another three months of stalemate between the two sides, Liang Zuo finally couldn't bear it anymore and led the sharpshooter battalion to attack Liu Botao's Chinese army camp under the leadership of the so-called anti-water scouts.

Of course, Liang Zuo knows that the Chinese army battalion has the most soldiers and horses, but his sharpshooter battalion is already good at charging into battle, if he can break through the Chinese army camp in one fell swoop and capture Liu Botao alive, there is a possibility of victory.

But Liu Botao had already dispatched excess left and right wing troops every day as early as a month ago to secretly ambush him. Liu Botao calculated that Liang Zuo would calm his breath for two months, but he didn't expect Liang Zuo to be much more careful than he imagined.

Anyway, Liang Zuo finally came.

The Chinese army battalion armor is exhausted, Shangguan Yunfei has been sleeping in Liang Zuo's tent to protect his left and right, Yang Feng and Shangguan Yunxiong are also nearby, the two of them are out with ambush soldiers, Liang Zuo suddenly found that the closer to the Chinese army camp, the more people there are, only to understand that the soldiers here are not only 20,000 people on the surface, but also about doubled.

Suddenly, the horse lost its front hooves, Yang Feng suddenly appeared in front of Liang Zuo, and hit his war horse in a battle, and the front hooves of the war horse were in pain, and the whole body turned backwards.

Liang Zuo's halberd bounced off the ground on the horses of one of his subordinates, beckoning the sharpshooter battalion to retreat.

But as early as this time, Xia Yuanshan led people to pretend to be Liang Zuo and his sharpshooter battalion overnight, and after knocking on the city gate, Liu Botao's tens of thousands of Lingnan soldiers prepared in advance drove straight into and captured Julu City.

Since then, Liang Zuofang's main force has been lost, and the giant deer city of the main city of Xinzhou has also been taken in by Liu Botao.

Finally, a month later, Xinzhou City stood to the last soldier, and Liang Zuo apologized for his crimes.

Liu Botao stood in front of Liang Zuo and sighed with emotion: "Liang Zuo's soldiers are really working for him!"
