Staying in Xiping County to actively prepare for war, although this order was strange, it was the easiest to execute, and the original heavy mood of the Fifth and Ninth Army Corps was relaxed.

Experienced troops know that they will fight a prepared battle next, and they do not need to rush to find the enemy desperately, and the chances of victory and survival are greatly increased.

Liu Yi asked the commander to inspect military affairs under the pretext of taking Ding Kui to Xiama City, and found an opportunity for Ding Kui to meet Hui Meng alone.

"Sheep Peak is coming at me. Ding Kui understood as soon as he heard it, "General Hui doesn't have to worry, this marshal is responsible for proving your innocence." ”

Hui Meng immediately thanked him.

"Well, don't go back to the First Army for the time being, because you are the last group of people to contact the enemy army, I will inform Commander Chen Yu and borrow you for a period of time to learn more about the situation of the enemy army. ”

"Can the lowly and those subordinates return to the team?" Hui Meng was pleasantly surprised.

It was a blessing not to be sent to the Ministry of Justice Justice, and if he could return to the battlefield, at least he would have a chance of revenge, which was something he had always dreamed about.

"Of course! Yang Feng dares to let the tiger return to the mountain, and I will make him regret it. There are a lot of recruits in the Fifth Legion, you can help Commander Liu improve the combat effectiveness of the recruits, so stay in the Fifth Legion first. ”

Ding Kui had to keep Hui Meng and the others, because they could prove that Jiang Xiong was defeated and captured, rather than surrendering to Yangfeng in the first place.

After all, Jiang Xiong is his cousin's own son, and Jiang Nai came to him after Yangfeng's rebellion, hoping that he would pay attention to Jiang Xiong's situation.

There is news today, but it is bad news, from Hui Meng's mouth, it can be learned that Jiang Xiong has descended to Yangfeng.

"How should I tell the Jiang family about this?" he was worried.

"That cousin is so old. Li Fei suddenly felt that she was old.

"Is this the point? My cousin is seventeen years older than me, and it's normal for his illegitimate son to be a few years younger than me, but I didn't expect it to have anything to do with Yang Feng's fight. "Ding Kui has no other people around him to discuss.

"Oh, so he's the grandson of the second uncle, and you have to get him back. Li Fei finally figured out Jiang Xiong's identity.

"If you have a chance, you must grab it, I'm afraid that Jiang Xiong will show his face as an enemy of our army, and the Jiang family may not be willing to say anything about him, at least they won't admit him on the surface, Jiang Lao Butler said that illegitimate children can never enter the main house. ”

Ding Kui saw Li Fei's strange expression, so he asked, "What are you doing?"

"Can the illegitimate son of our family enter the door of the main house?" Li Fei had a malicious expression.

"What do you mean? ”

"How dare I be disrespectful to my father! Don't slander me! Be careful of your romantic debts!" Li Fei turned her face away from Ding Kui.

"What kind of debt do I owe? Don't talk nonsense. Ding Kui was a little weak-hearted, "If we want to have a child, it must be the Ding family, and no one will leave." ”

Li Fei said quietly: "Will we have children?"

She used all the unique skills at the bottom of the box, but the flat lower abdomen has not moved.

"Ahem, I have a solution, I don't know if you want to try it. Ding Kui was close to Li Fei.

"What can you do!" said that, Li Fei pricked up her ears.

"That's ......," Ding Kui whispered in her ear.

Li Fei's neck turned red after hearing this.

"Jiang Xiong's matter hasn't been finished yet, why don't I send a message to my uncle?" she twisted her body to break free of a pair of "devil's claws".

"His business is not in a hurry, we ......"

Li Feifei generally ran to the door, "It's not convenient tonight." With that, he opened the door and ran out.

"Hey!" Ding Kui stopped shouting, considering that the partition wall had ears.

......

The two rebels approached the Demon Pass, with the 16th Army Corps to the north and the 17th Army Corps to the south.

Yang Feng acted with the Seventeenth Legion and commanded the Legion together with Pan Hong.

"Have you found any traces of the enemy?" Yang Feng ordered the army to build a large camp, and it seemed that it was not a short-term stay.

The officer in charge of commanding the scouts reported: "There are a large number of cavalry wandering in the direction of Zhenmo Pass, and the scouts cannot get close; there are also enemy troops blocking the scouts in the south near Xiping County, and the enemy has not been found in other directions for the time being." ”

"There are only local troops in the north and east, the Tianmen Fortress Division will not be easily dispatched, and the enemy army will only be in the southeast of Zhenmo Pass and Xiping County in the south, so we should let the Sixteenth Army go our way. ”

Pan Hong was very aware of the defense of Wangzhou, and he couldn't understand why Yang Feng wanted to lead the troops this way.

"They dare to draw troops from the southern defense line, which means that Ding Kui's men and horses are crossing or have already crossed the Xijiang River, and it is more difficult for us to attack the Demon Suppression Pass. Yang Feng answered the question.

"It's half a month's journey from Xijiang here, and the biggest threat to us is the Tenth Army Corps. Pan Hong kept reminding Yang Feng.

"I know. Yang Feng pushed the glasses on the bridge of his nose, "I also know such a simple thing, I heard that Ding Kui was the head coach of the counterinsurgency, how do you think he will fight?"

"Ding Kui has participated in many battles with less to win more, and is best at sneaking behind enemy lines to fight, and likes to intersperse detours in a wide area, and we are more suitable to use this tactic here, will he repeat the old tricks?" Pan Hong tried to understand Yang Feng's intentions.

"Hehe, have you thought of it, can't he or the people around him think of it? Ding Kui likes to capture the weaknesses of the enemy general's heart, and this is what he is most capable of. ”

Yang Feng came to the big map and continued: "You, me, and Luo Kui are all familiar with this place, and Ding Kui has no reason not to know. He has no time, no geography, he can only find a way in people, which means that he is waiting for us to make mistakes. ”

"Will we make a mistake?" Mr. Pan was pondering.

"Yes, definitely! Luo Kui doesn't like me, and it is inevitable that the generals will make mistakes if they don't get along, so Ding Kui will definitely play this card. "Yang Feng is like saying something that has nothing to do with him.

"Then will we stay here and not move?" Pan Hong became more and more confused the more he listened.

"If you want to fight the Demon Suppression Pass, you have to fight hard, otherwise Luo Kui will not send troops to support us, and if he doesn't support us, he won't make a mistake, Ding Kui will wait for reinforcements with peace of mind, and finally wipe us out. Yang Feng's finger pointed at the Demon Suppression Pass.

Pan Hong said with a worried face: "One of our people dies one less than one, and I'm afraid that there will be a lot of casualties if we bite the Demon Suppression Pass." ”

"Tut-tut, no wonder you can't go up. Yang Feng jokingly said, "It is difficult for a general who is afraid of death to be a big responsibility." As long as you can fight, are you afraid that you will not have subordinates?

Will Shaodian Yongluo's loyal commander spare that little bit of troops? Rest assured, we won't stay under Yang Kui all the time. ”

"The credit for our desperate work goes to the leader first. Pan Hongmai didn't have the hurdle in his heart.

The Seventeenth Legion is his troops, and Yang Feng can sacrifice anyone's troops, including his own.

"Defeating the Demon Suppression Pass is naturally his credit, what if he can't beat it? What if he is beaten by the new counterinsurgency commander and loses his armor?"

"You mean to deliberately lose to Ding Kui?" Pan Hong seemed to grasp the point.

"No, no, no, not on purpose. Yang Feng gave a look of his own experience.

"Then we should go to the North Road. Pan Hong doesn't seem to understand.

"Don't worry, it's safer here. Yang Feng patted Pan Hong on the shoulder.

“......”

The rebels began to attack the Demon Suppression Pass, and the main force was Pan Hong's 17th Army Corps.

The 10th Army Corps stationed outside the pass withdrew before the enemy came, and because they knew that there were reinforcements in Xiping County, they heard that there was no threat of attack at the customs, so they withdrew to Akiba Pass to the east.

Of course, the rebel 16th Army Corps found that there were cavalry hovering in the east, and it was not ruled out that the 10th Army Corps would kill a horse pistol.

Wang Deng and Chen Yu climbed the enemy tower together to look out at the rebels advancing in batches under the pass.

The front of the Demon Suppression Pass is narrow, with a total length of less than 500 meters, and it is impossible to stand in a row side by side.

The mountains on both sides of the pass are not too high, people can climb over but the chariots and horses can't overturn, and the situation in other passes is similar, if the rebels drop their baggage, they can bypass the demon control pass, but then they will be ruthlessly slaughtered by the cavalry.

"What's wrong with this Pan Seventeen? It's only been a few days since he surrendered to the traitorous king, and he is so desperate to work for the traitorous king, regardless of the dead and wounded, to attack the Demon Suppression Pass. Chen Yu saw that the enemy troops under the pass were still under the original banner.

The surname plus the serial number of the legion is a joking name for the commander of the legion, and others can jokingly call Chen Yu Chen Yi and Shaodian Tai as Shaodian ten.

"Those rebel generals know that the defense in the pass, and capturing the Demon Suppression Pass is the safest way to play, even if Pan Hong is unwilling to come, Na Luo Kui will definitely force him to come, and the newly surrendered troops will be treated like this. Wang Deng used a telescope to look at the key Shuaitai.

His words implicitly warned that surrender would not end well, and the Seventeenth Army Corps was a living example.

As the acting commander of the General Staff, he has to consider the impact of the overall situation, and will not miss the opportunity to fight the betrayers, no matter what the reason for Pan Hong to come, he was forced by Yang Kui.

"Don't move the trebuchet yet, let a group of enemy troops come up, prepare the carbines, I want to see what these traitors will do except stab them in the back. Chen Yu held his breath in his heart.

Originally, the northern defense line was well defended, but the enemy troops under the pass suddenly switched sides when they and the Fourth Army Corps were changing guards, which caused the defense line to collapse, and the Fourth Army Corps was almost annihilated, causing him to lead his troops to flee in disarray.

This time, he wanted to inflict heavy losses on the Seventeenth Army to vent his hatred.

"Slow down the pace of the attack, increase the spacing of the attacking troops, and speed up the deployment of archers. Yang Feng found an abnormality on the shuai platform, and he didn't have time to pass Pan Hong and give orders directly.

The first group of officers and men climbed the wall unexpectedly, and in the process they were not attacked by the defenders, but the moment they climbed the wall, they were chilled by the scene before them.

Rows of spears were densely bundled together, set in front of the war horses, and hundreds of war horses were lined up horizontally, with no less than a thousand shining spear tips.

Behind the horses, there was a black oppression, and soldiers with weapons were glaring at them.

"Steady, steady!" Chen Yu had not yet ordered an attack.

There were people climbing up the siege ladder, and the people in front had to climb over the battlements and put on a defensive posture after landing.

When the city wall was almost full of people, Chen Yucai waved his sword and shouted: "Kill!"

Knock knock, knock knock, the drum beat rapidly, "Rush!" "Kill!" "It's time for revenge!"

The morale of the defenders was at its peak in an instant.
