Chapter 572: Old Peng was in trouble

Now that Wei Wuji has come to Zhuolu City in person, Yu Kuang, Xiao Maha, and Xiao Quji are all gathered in Peng Lao Town.

Peng Lao Town, this is a small town that can not be smaller, located in the southeast of Zhuolu City more than 20 miles, because the legend of the Taoist Peng Zu once passed by this place, and left the ruins, so the name Peng Lao Town.

For hundreds of years, most of the town is a quiet and peaceful scene, when the Houjian army went south, it has never passed through this place, and when it was ten years of chasing deer, it has not affected the thorn land, but no one would have thought that the town that has not encountered a disaster for hundreds of years is about to usher in a huge disaster, and the entire town will be reduced to ruins, or even completely erased from the map.

In the last few days of the approaching lunar month, from the north and south of the town to the town respectively, both sides abandoned the baggage of the light march, both wanted to bypass Zhuolu City, at the same time, neither side expected that they would meet here.

The reason why the two sides will form a decisive battle in Penglao Town is actually a coincidence.

At the hour when the sky was still relatively dark, the two armies suddenly met in a sudden encounter, and the scout vanguards of the two sides first clashed, crossbow arrows and arrows flew one after another, the sound of roaring through the sky, the sound of explosion and roaring, and the sound of fighting and shouting, completely breaking the tranquility of Peng Lao Town.

Then there is a steady stream of follow-up armies, forming a stalemate.

At this time, the generals on both sides knew that this was the main army of the other party, so they rescued each other, and the three-way reinforcements of the Wei State pressed on all fronts, and the three-way army of the Great Qi court did not give in, and attacked head-on, one by one, one by one, entered the battlefield, and then quickly entangled together, the more tightly entangled, and no one could easily withdraw from the battlefield.

At noon, a Daomen great true person flew over the battlefield, and he was shocked to find that with Peng Laozhen as the center, the hundreds of thousands of troops on the ground had formed a huge whirlpool that spread for dozens of miles, and there were corpses and bones flying everywhere.

As for Peng Lao Town, under the impact of two huge waves, it has been completely reduced to ruins.

Xiao Quji's department was also caught in this huge whirlpool, when this encounter and battle just started, Xiao Quji, who was on the battlefield for the first time, became excited, unlike Xiao Maha and Yu Kuang such "old pawns", Xiao Quji is a veritable "recruit egg", if it weren't for the fact that there is no one available in the Great Qi clan today, maybe he will not have the opportunity to personally lead the troops in his life. Even if he led the troops this time, although he was nominally the sole leader of the army, he was actually subject to the control of the veteran Xiao Maha, firstly, because Xiao Maha was higher than him, and secondly, Xiao Maha was a person who had participated in the deer competition for ten years after all, and he had guarded Julu City outside the Saiwai for many years, and his experience in leading the troops was really not comparable to Xiao Quji.

However, the golden iron horse of his father and ancestors is still flowing in his blood, when he was a teenager, he practiced swords, and also studied military books hard, but he was not as lucky as Xiao Bai, and he did not have the opportunity to go to southern Xinjiang to show his strength, because of this matter, he complained in private. Now that he has finally waited for this perfect opportunity, how can Xiao Quji not be excited?

At the beginning, Xiao Quji still gave orders in a similar way, what was interspersed and winding, what was outflanked, but after the herald left, Xiao Quji found that something was wrong, there was fierce fighting everywhere in all directions, and the army under his command did not know where it was, and there were only about 100 people in the personal guard battalion around him.

When the herald did not come back for a long time, Xiao Qujian felt a little caught off guard, looking at all kinds of military books, and had never seen such an undisciplined battle, the general did not know the soldiers, the soldiers did not know the generals, anyway, there were enemy troops all around, most of the soldiers of Daqi were dressed in black, and the soldiers of Wei were dressed in white.

Xiao Qujian pulled out his saber and threw himself into the melee with his own guards, killing when he saw the white clothes, and killing the black clothes when he saw them, no matter whose soldiers they were, they were all under his command. After all, Xiao Quji has the identity of the county king and the chief general of the army, and the soldiers of the Great Qi army are naturally attached one after another, and after fighting for two hours, Xiao Quji is stunned to gather a team of more than 2,000 soldiers.

Xiao Quji led more than 2,000 people to rush all the way and fight fiercely, the more they fought, the more courageous they became, the battlefield deserved to be the best place to hone, in just a few hours, Xiao Quji combined with what he had learned, he already had some experience, and the dispatch of troops became skilled, and more than 2,000 people were like a sharp sword, moving forward all the way in the huge battlefield whirlpool, invincible.

At the same time, not far from Xiao Quji, it was the headquarters of Murong Division, one of the three reinforcements of Wei State, but Murong Shi, who was born in the Murong family of Wei State, was not much stronger than Xiao Quji at this time, and his army was also scattered after the sudden encounter between the two armies, and there were only more than 1,000 light horsemen left beside him.

At this time, he found a large Qi army that was rushing towards this side, although it was mostly foot soldiers, but the combat method was extremely unusual, with the sword and shield men in the front, the pikemen in the back, and the longbowmen in the back, and two teams of cavalry on both wings to cover it, if it was not a large group of cavalry, otherwise it would be difficult to break through.

Murong Shi's eyesight is excellent, and he also saw more than 100 guards in the middle of the entire military formation, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart, there can be so many personal guards, I am afraid that the origin is not small, if he meets Yu Kuang head-on, in terms of his martial arts cultivation, his more than 1,000 cavalry will not be pleased.

However, now, dodging is not a way, it has already reached the point of life and death, so Murong Shi gritted his teeth, raised the iron spear in his hand high, and pointed forward.

Charge!

Just when Murong Shi began to personally lead the troops to charge, Xiao Quji also discovered this unique Wei cavalry army, and he was not afraid of danger and began to issue military orders in an orderly manner.

A thousand cavalry mixed against two thousand infantry.

There is no backing down.

The battle lasted two hours, and both sides ended in near-annihilation.

After the soldiers on both sides were killed, Xiao Quji, who was armed with a knife, faced Murong Shi, who was holding a spear.

Both sides are not powerless, but they are not monks with a high realm, they fight equally, and in the end, it was Xiao Quji who cut off Murong Shi's war horse with a knife, although Murong Shi was able to dodge, but he couldn't dodge Xiao Quji's next knife and was stabbed into the chest.

After Xiao Qu drew his sword, the iron spear in Murong Shi's hand fell to the ground, and the blood in his chest did not stop, and he fell backwards weakly.

However, Xiao Qujian didn't have time to rejoice, and saw a fire thunderbolt falling towards him from a height of more than ten zhang with a sharp whistling sound.

Xiao Quji, who had been exhausted from fighting, was powerless to dodge, so he could only watch as this fire thunderbolt landed not far from him, exploding.

At this moment, Xiao Quji felt like an immortal who was about to ascend, flying high, and then the boundless darkness in front of him was surging like a tide.
