Going deeper, Xie An noticed that there were secret sentinels along the road, and less than a mile later, he saw that there was a checkpoint in front of the mountain. "I heard that Zhang Liang, the Marquis of Han Liu, who was strategizing back then, was reminded by Han Xin to resign and return to seclusion here, and did not want the royal family to still refuse to forgive and send officers and soldiers to besiege, and later had to be helped by the Huangshi Gongxian to get out of danger, so this place was called Huangshi Village in order to commemorate the kindness of the ancestors. A good Huangshi village, I didn't expect that there are also people who understand the art of war among the thieves, this ridge is not connected on all sides, the trees are extremely wide, the stone has a clear spring, the two wings are deep valleys, the top is inserted into the clouds, it is easy to defend and difficult to attack, if the mountain is rich in materials and sufficient grain and grass, it is indeed an excellent place to set up a camp. When Xie An first came to Huangshi Village, he first observed the enemy camp, and felt that the other party's layout was clever, and he couldn't help but admire.

The army pressed the border, and there were already sentinels who passed it on.

Out of the opening of the mountain gate out of a group of people, the leader of the leopard head ringed eyes, bearded like a halberd, burly, dark knotted muscles crisscrossed with a hideous scar, broad shoulders carrying a mountain axe about seven feet long, the appearance of a very vicious birth, this person is the owner of Huangshi Zhai Yang Beifu, only to see his arrogant demeanor giant mouth tiger roared: "Who is coming? I don't know the sky and the earth dare to offend me Huangshi Village." ”

"I am Chen Jun Xie An, now at the order of the Son of Heaven to come to levy, you do not abide by the law of the country, occupy the mountain as the king, self-armed and brave robbery of passing merchants, make the heavens angry and resentful, a few days ago dared to rob the court tribute, despise the power of heaven, very hateful. However, I have heard for a long time that Yang is known as a chivalrous family, and if you get off the horse and be bound by yourself, Xie can report to the court to recruit as a general, and you can avoid the death penalty.

"It turned out to be Lord Xie, Yang is also well-known, now the court is weak and traitorous ministers are corrupt officials, the Wu clan is in rebellion, the northern powers are threatening, internal and external troubles are in turmoil in the court, and the smoke is everywhere, suffering our poor innocent people, three meals are not full, displaced, wives are separated, families are ruined, people who come to Huangshi Village are cornered people, we rob unscrupulous profiteers, rob corrupt officials and corrupt officials, kill the dog thieves who bring disaster to the country and the people, try to ask what is the crime. ”

Yang Beifu said that it was reasonable for a group of people and horses behind him to coax together, he raised the battle axe that seemed to be quite heavy with one hand, and the people and horses in the rear quieted down to see the majesty, and continued: "Now my Huangshizhai people are strong and strong, the grain and grass are sufficient, and the mountain gate is solid. ”

"The bold rebel dares to speak out here and despise the Celestial Empire, and the general will behead you. Xie An rushed out of a general on the left side, only to see that he was wearing chain mail, a brave yellow horse under his crotch, and three willows with long whiskers floating on the side of his cheeks.

"It's just in time, wait for Yang to make an example of the monkey. Yang Beifu greeted him with an axe.

The war drums of both sides thundered and resounded through the three armies.

The two rushed back and forth, and fifty rounds had passed and there was still no winner, only to see Lin Jin dodge a ruthless axe split sideways, and raise the knife with both hands to slash the opponent's left shoulder. Yang Beifu saw that he had not been able to win for a long time and was in danger, so he saw that the big knife was coming to the Land Rover's claws, and he actually grabbed the handle of the opponent's knife. didn't wait for the opponent to recapture, so that the mountain axe swept away.

Lin Jin was shocked and couldn't pull back the long knife to parry for a while, and he also drew the gourd steel claw to grab the long handle of the mountain axe, and the two grabbed each other's blades and fought hard. The two of them did not give in to each other, and they used all their strength to blow the green tendons in their necks, only to hear two tiger roars that broke out almost at the same time, Yang Beifu actually took Lin Jin's long knife, but Lin Jin snatched Yang Beifu's mountain axe, they stuck the captured blades into the ground and fought again with their own short soldiers.

Lin Jin made Qinghong Sword, Yang Beifu made Yuanyang Sword, and the two were still indistinguishable from each other for a while.

Xie An saw that Yang Beifu was brave and afraid that Lin Jin would make a mistake and rush to kill the army, the shouts of the soldiers shook the mountains and rivers, and the bandits did not give in to meet each other head-on, and the murderous aura of both sides soared into the sky.

Xie An saw that the Huangshi Zhai people and horses were in a clear and chaotic formation, and saw clearly that there was someone on the rear city wall who was commanding the command flag, that person had a clear formation and a skillful command, and the so-called confidant Xie An would conduct a detailed investigation of the enemy army before each expedition, and muttered: "I heard that Tang Bacai, the second master of Huangshi Village, is smart and witty, and he is familiar with the five elements, and most of the affairs are arranged by him, so he should be the person in front of him, and it is no wonder that Huangshi Village has such a strange person. ”

Suddenly, I saw a tall and thin yellow-faced man fighting side by side with Yang Beifu, and he was not under it, and every arrow he fired would fall on someone, Xie An was shocked: "I have heard for a long time that Song Jiping, the third master of Huangshi Village, is the best at arching horses, and has a hundred steps to pierce Yang's magic skills. ”

Most of the bandits in Huangshizhai are ordinary people, but they have practiced with Yangbeifu for a while, and they all rely on courage to resist, how can Xie An's soldiers be excellent, plus the imperial court has 3,000 soldiers and Huangshizhai bandits only have more than 1,000 people, and there is more than twice the advantage in numbers, and it is gradually difficult for Huangshizhai people to support.

Tang Bacai saw that the opponent's soldiers were general, and his own men and horses were killed and wounded, and if they touched hard, they would definitely destroy the village, so they immediately retreated, and the archers on the city gate shot the enemy, and Yang Beifu took the opportunity to lead the people to retreat into the cottage and defend the mountain gate.

Lin Jin and other generals were unwilling to set up a ladder to storm the mountain gate, and they still couldn't attack it for a long time until dusk.

On the wall of Huangshi Village, Song Jiping saw that the enemy army was reluctant to attack, and knew the reason that the thief should capture the king first, so he bent his bow and shot at Xie An. Yang Beifu was wholeheartedly commanding his minions to defend the city, and when he saw Song Jiping release cold arrows, he hurriedly pounced to stop it: "Hugh injured Lord Xie's life." ”

"Boom", but unfortunately half a step slower and the arrow has left the string.

"Third brother, you are confused!" Yang Beifu pressed Song Jiping's arm and reproached.

"Xie An brought people to attack my Huangshi Village, causing a lot of casualties to the little brother, why can't I kill him. Song Jiping broke free from Yang Beifu's big hand and said confidently.

"Lord Xie is a rare good official in the world, if he makes any mistakes, too many people will suffer, and it is contrary to the purpose of our village. Yang Beifu felt deeply guilty, and could only pray in his heart that Xie An would be safe and sound.

Song Jiping's archery skills are really clever, the feather arrow is not biased and aimed at Xie An's chest, the flying arrow comes too fast Xie An doesn't know martial arts, and he was at a loss, suddenly a hand seemed to fall from the sky, and he caught the ruthless cold arrow quickly and incoherently, it turned out that Jin Ming was guarding his friend at all times, and he saw a cold arrow attacking just now, so he naturally flew to save him.

Surprisingly, Xie An actually took the still sharp arrow in Jin Ming's hand and gently put it into his chest.

"Lord Xie has been shot. The incident happened suddenly, and Jin Ming didn't know what was going on, but he was convinced that Xie An's approach must have a deep meaning, so he cooperated with the dark luck spiritual power and shouted loudly.

"Lord Xie was injured, and Ming Jin withdrew his troops. The general was concerned about Xie An's injury, but had no choice but to order the retreat.

After the forward general received the order, the front team covered the retreat of the rear team, and the army retreated without panic.

Soon the men and horses came to the foot of the mountain and set up camp.

Xie An was injured in the main account, and the military doctor was already in emergency treatment.

The generals paced back and forth like ants on a hot pot outside the camp anxiously, Xie An was strategic, the rewards and punishments for governing the army were clear, and he had always treated the soldiers well, and the army admired and loved him very much, so they were very concerned about the soldiers and his injuries.

After about an hour, the military doctor finally came out of the main camp, and the generals gathered around and asked with concern, "How are your injuries?"

"The feather arrow has been taken out, and the wound has been medicated and bandaged, but fortunately there is no poison on the arrow, and the wound will be healed after ten days and a half months. During these days, adults should rest and recuperate, and must not be burdened by chariots and horses, for fear that the wound will open and the virus infection will cause endless disasters. The military doctor's words were full of instructions.

"There's Dr. Law. ”

After hearing this, the soldiers transferred to the account to visit, and the tiger step that was originally shaken by the mountains became like a dragonfly at this moment, and when they came to Xie An's bed, they knelt down one after another, led by Lin Jin, "The subordinates are incompetent and ineffective in protection, and let the adults be plotted by thieves, which is really a crime and deserves death." ”

"Why should the general blame himself, there are capable people in the enemy camp who can wear Yang in a hundred steps, and Xie is careless at a certain time to have today's disaster. Xie An dragged a weak soft line.

The generals were all ashamed and knelt on the ground.

"The military doctor has already bandaged the wound properly, and now it is fine, Xie Mou's life is hard and the little arrow wound has not been taken to heart, you don't have to worry, please hurry up." ”

"Adults are auspicious, and a qiē will definitely turn evil into auspiciousness. ”

Only then did the soldiers stand up.

"The thieves are so insidious that they dare to do this to the adults, and in the future, they will break through the mountain gate and swear to break the corpses of the thieves into ten thousand pieces. Seeing that Lord Xie, who usually cared for him the most, was plotted, his usual spirit was now sick, and he said angrily in his heart.

Xie An suddenly coughed again and again, and Jin Ming immediately said when he saw this: "Before leaving, the doctor instructed Chunchun that adults should rest and recuperate, and should not be disturbed by fatigue." ”

"The last general will retire first. ”

On the other side, all the soldiers were anxious about Xie An's life, but Xiao Xie Xuan didn't take this matter to heart, and went back to the camp alone to get pen and ink to paint.

Duan Xiyun quietly followed Xie Xuan into the camp. On the battlefield just now, in the chaos, Jin Ming received an arrow to save people and Xie An inserted the arrow into his chest by himself, Duan Xiyun also knew about it, so he didn't worry about it, but he was thinking that Xie Xuan might not notice this when he was young and the situation was chaotic at that time. At this moment, seeing that Xie Xuan was actually interested in painting, he didn't care about Xie An's injury at all, he was very ignorant, and scolded him in a brother-like tone: "Your uncle was accidentally hit by an arrow and his life and death are uncertain, so you still have the heart to paint here." ”

"Brother Yun knows the reason, why bother to preach to me. ”

"Could it be that you kid also know that Lord Xie pretended to be hit by an arrow. Duan Xiyun didn't expect Xie Xuan to be so clever at such a young age.

"Don't make a loud noise, if you let the soldiers outside hear it, it will be very bad. Xie Xuan put up a food signal to be silent.

Duan Xiyun woke up and narrowed his lips, not daring to say any more.

["I'm embarrassed to preach here, although people are younger than you, but their minds are more delicate and cautious than you, when can you change your careless mistakes."] ”]

Duan Xiyun wanted to scold, but he didn't want to be reminded and preached by this old and young man, and he felt very boring.
