Like last time, Zhao Lun allocated 20,000 elite cavalry to Xu Dong again, but this time he changed his name to the "Rebel Army", and asked him to lead the "Rebel Army" to the desert and destroy the Dayue Revival Army as soon as possible.

Xu Dong entrusted the affairs of the hussar camp to Chen Kun and Fang Lei, asking them to pay close attention to the movements of the serpentine trickster practitioners, and each battalion sent troops to patrol many places in the base camp at night.

This time, he recommended Dan Kezhen and Pei Dazhi as deputy generals, and the three of them led the army to the west overnight.

As soon as they entered the desert, they were ambushed by the Baath Army.

The Baath Army dug fortifications under the sand dunes and buried a lot of ground crossbows, and when the "rebel army" passed here, hundreds of ground crossbows were fired in unison, shooting and killing many "rebel army" soldiers.

When the arrows fired from the crossbow flew like locusts, Kezhen and Pei Dazhi tried their best to protect the boss, and the two spears danced out of the pear blossoms, knocking down those arrows one after another.

When the crossbow was finally fired, there was a corpse of a "rebel army" soldier lying on the sand, and countless wounded were innumerable, and the yellow sand was stained red with blood.

Xu Dong hurriedly ordered the wounded to be treated, and at this moment of chaos, the revival army came out of the fortifications one after another, and nearly 1,000 people held weapons to kill the soldiers of the "rebel army".

The soldiers of the Restoration Army carried a special weapon, more than five feet long, with a hook at one end and a spear at the other, and this weapon was made of pure steel, and it did not curl the horse's leg after many strikes.

They first hooked the horses of the "rebel army" soldiers with hooks, and then poked the "rebel army" soldiers in the chest with spears and spears, so that the revival army, which had been trained in haste, also had combat effectiveness.

Obviously, the revival army was precautioned against the invasion of the Ratuo Kingdom, which is why it made such careful preparations.

But there is one that is very difficult for Xu Dong to guess, he asked the emperor Zhao Lun for help, and the emperor secretly allocated soldiers and horses for him, plus he suddenly ordered troops to march overnight, which were all very secret.

In other words, his march into the desert this time can be regarded as a sneak attack, and he wanted to catch the revival army by surprise, but somehow he fell into an ambush by the revival army.

Could it be that someone had passed on information to the Renaissance Army? Or that there were already spies of the Da Yue Kingdom who had penetrated into the country of Ratuo and promptly informed the leader of the movements of the "rebel army."

Xu Dong hid these questions in his heart for the time being, and then returned to Luotuo Country to investigate them carefully after this battle.

A deputy commander of the Fuxing Army rushed towards Xu Dong with a gun in both hands, at this time, Dan Kezhen and Pei Dazhi were killing the soldiers of the Fuxing Army one by one, and saw the deputy commander fighting Xu Dong alone from a distance, afraid that Xu Dong would lose, so the two hurriedly turned back.

Xu Dong originally thought that this commander's spear skills were general, but after fighting dozens of moves, he found that this person was very good and easily took advantage of Xu Dong.

The deputy commander was about to shoot Xu Dong in the chest, saying that it was too late and that it was fast, but Kezhen raised his gun to meet him, and the two spearheads met and made a sonorous sound.

But Kezhen suppressed the deputy commander within thirty moves, he didn't give the deputy commander a chance to breathe, and used the Danjia gun's move to smash the Huanglong Mansion directly, and pierced the throat of the deputy commander with one shot.

Seeing that the deputy commander was killed, the other generals and soldiers felt that it would be superfluous to resist any longer, and it was better to surrender the "rebel army" as soon as possible to save their lives.

In this ambush and counter-ambush battle, the Baxing Army suffered more than 200 casualties, and the remaining 7 or 800 were taken prisoners, and the casualties of the "rebel army" were several times greater, and 600 people were killed by crossbows alone.

But in any case, the "rebel army" completely annihilated this ambush team with an absolutely superior force, which can be regarded as a victory in the first battle.

Xu Dong inspected the fortifications built by the Fuxing Army and found that the excavated sand was wet, and there was no need to think that these fortifications were newly dug by assault.

This confirms Xu Dong's previous speculation that it was after receiving the information that the country of Luotuo sent troops that the revival army hurriedly sent troops to build fortifications and bury crossbows in order to ambush the "rebel army".

Xu Dong discussed the next step with Dan Kezhen and Pei Dazhi, and finally agreed that Pei Dazhi would send hundreds of prisoners of war back to Luotuo Kingdom, and he and Dan Kezhen each took a few thousand elite horsemen to Dazhou City and the Demon Sea.

Because of the latest movements of the enemy from the mouths of the captives, the revival army, which was originally stationed in the Demon Sea, has now sent half of its troops to defend Dazhou City.

When Xu Dong led his troops to Dazhou City as fast as he could, it was already completely dark.

The night of the desert is magical, the howling desert wind is like thousands of wild wolves howling, and the hard sand and dust clanging on the weapons.

Thousands of men besieged the abandoned royal capital of Da Yue, a process that was done silently, even evading the eyes of several soldiers patrolling the city.

Originally, there were only more than 1,000 people in the Fuxing Army, and the main body was some remnants of the royal family of the Great Yue Kingdom, most of whom did not practice martial arts, so their combat ability was not very strong.

Later, a large number of stragglers were recruited, many of whom were soldiers left behind by conquered countries, and the revival army slowly gathered strength to wrestle with the red-clothed fairy army in the desert.

After Xu Dong led the army to exterminate the red-clothed fairy army, the revival army got a development opportunity, and in a short period of time, it grew stronger, the number of troops quadrupled than before, and the combat power was not the same as before.

After successfully besieging Dazhou City, Xu Dong ordered his soldiers to raid the city.

The minds of the revival army never dreamed that the "demon army" would swallow up the more than 1,000 soldiers who had ambushed them, and they did not even release a single one of them.

Of course, the success of Xu Dong's raid also benefited from the mediocrity of these minds, and if they had deployed it more carefully, Xu Dong would not have succeeded so easily.

Xu Dong will not treat the Fuxing Army as ruthlessly as he treats the Red Fairy Army, because he has no hatred with them, but only out of the maintenance of national security.

Also, he also came for a precious thing, that is, the divine sand in the underground treasure house of the Dayue King's capital.

The revival army guarding Dazhou City became a turtle in the urn, and the "rebel army" won the victory without encountering any resistance, taking all the more than 1,000 people prisoner.

Xu Dong was extremely excited, the war was progressing much more smoothly than he had imagined, and as the commander of the army on an expedition to the desert, he himself was almost bloodless.

He handed over the task of cleaning the battlefield to his subordinates, and led a team of soldiers to find the underground treasure house, and broke several mechanisms in a row to reach the door of the basement.

As soon as he looked at the two heavy iron doors, he felt that something was wrong, and that there was supposed to be a large copper lock hanging from the iron door, and he had to break the copper lock to enter the basement.

But now not only did there be no brass locks on the door, but the two doors were wide open, making the entrance to the basement black hole, like the open mouth of an old lady who had lost all her teeth.

A bad premonition seized him, and he hurried into the basement, which was so dark that he didn't see a single light.

In his world of experience, the basement was supposed to be clear, and a purple light would come from the ground and rush to the dome-shaped roof...... But none of that.

He ordered a torch to be lit and followed him into the basement, and his premonition was soon confirmed, the basement was empty, the crossbows had been removed, and a grain of divine sand had been seen on the ground.
