Wang Rong took the lead in the front, and Lan Ji lowered the brim of his hat and raised his collar to follow behind. Wang Rong was already a lieutenant, leading 10,000 soldiers, and no one dared to ask when he walked on the street. The road went smoothly until the north gate.

Lan Ji's cronies were stationed at the north gate, stepped on the city wall, and shouted loudly to tens of thousands of soldiers: "I, Lan Ji, am here, and my injuries will be healed." Yuntao took advantage of my serious injuries to take away my military power. After only a few words and another word, he felt that his body was a little unbearable, and he retreated to avoid the sight of the soldiers in the city, and sat down on the ground, panting heavily.

There are as many as 50,000 soldiers in the northern city, which is to prevent the northern border from attacking the blue wolves. This group of soldiers are all Lan Ji's personal soldiers, the elite of the country. Seeing Lan Ji standing tall on the city tower, the crowd cheered. Lan Ji can be said to have responded to all calls, and the soldier's momentum was high in an instant. Among the 50,000 soldiers, the head was five captains, each with 10,000 soldiers, and the five captains were locked up outside the city for a few days, knowing that the general was seriously injured and his life was in danger, no matter how much he pleaded, he would not let him in.

At this time, when the captains saw Lan Ji on the city wall, they couldn't bear it anymore and threatened loudly, if they didn't open the city gate, they would start to attack the city.

The soldiers defending the city had already been frightened, and one of the experienced defenders had already seen the clues and sent someone to tell Yuntao.

Wang Rong saw that Lan Ji was unwell, and was afraid that the soldiers outside would mutiny, so he went down the city wall alone and said to the soldiers guarding the city, "You open the door, and I will go out and talk to them." ”

The soldiers defending the city did not dare to open the gate, but only opened the small gate on the side to let Wang Rong out, and Wang Rong saw a few leaders outside the city, so he asked: "General Lan Ji asked me to come to the five captains to discuss the matter." ”

Among these people in front of him were the five captains, each of whom reported their names. Wang Kui, Captain of the Left Army. Li Longhai, Assault Captain of the Right Army. Liu Tao, Captain of the Chinese Army. Liu Chun, cavalry charge captain. Sun Xiao, captain of Dragon and Tiger.

After all five people reported their names, Wang Rong also reported their names, Wang Rong, the captain of Beiling Wang Town. Then he told Lan Ji about his injuries and how he rescued Lan Ji, with a little exaggeration, which impressed these people. At the same time, it was agreed that Lan Ji would take a short rest and raise his troops and go straight to the Beiling Palace.

After a while, the sun went down, and Lan Ji fell asleep for a while, felt a little more strength, and stood up stiffly. Wang Rong ordered the soldiers defending the city to open the gates, and Lan Ji and his subordinates marched to the Beiling Palace.

Yun Tao also has 20,000 of his own cronies, all of them are in the city, Bingma County is not small, 20,000 people are distributed all over the city, and 5,000 are around the Beiling Palace, which is extremely strict. Although Yuntao is greedy, he is not a stingy person, as long as his soldiers are willing to work for him, they will be rewarded.

Yun Tao had already been woken up by the people around him with fierce medicine, and was told that Lan Ji had escaped. Yun Tao immediately got up and organized resistance, after all, he was a deputy general, although he didn't know martial arts, he had a lot of resourcefulness.

Because of his lack of physical strength, Lan Ji finally failed to hold it and fainted and fell to the ground. At this time, all of Lan Ji's soldiers had entered the city and fought with Yuntao's army. These soldiers were without Langi's command, and the captains fought on their own. Although Yuntao had a small number of people, he commanded properly and slowly gained the upper hand. At this time, the south gate of the city had been opened, and Yun Tao had already bought the 20,000 soldiers at the south gate. Countless soldiers fought in and out, and the city was suddenly plunged into slaughter.

Hua Feihua saw this kind of tragic killing outside, and understood that if she went out at this time, she was going to die, and she couldn't hide in the house, and this situation was likely to turn into a massacre. Because it is obvious that many soldiers have already killed red-eyed and are not restrained, this time is the most dangerous. The best thing to do is to find a place to hide so that you can survive the night safely. Seeing this situation, the city gate is already open, and if the killing is reduced, you can try to run out. Looking back at Yiyan behind him, he was already trembling with fright and curled up to the side.

Wang Rong had just been promoted to lieutenant for a few days, and he was not very familiar with the soldiers under him, and these soldiers were not at all useful to him. Seeing that Lan Ji's five lieutenants collapsed one by one, he was anxious. Lan Ji was always unconscious, Wang Rong was anxious, and shouted at Lan Ji's troops: "Who can give the general a horse!"

Before the screams had subsided, someone turned over and dismounted, handing the reins to Wang Rong. The two worked together to support Lan Ji on the horse, Wang Rong sat behind, stretched out his hand to hold the reins, made sure that Lan Ji would not fall, thanked him, and then galloped out of the city. Along the way, Lan Ji's troops saw the general fall on his horse and was taken out of the city, and lost the will to fight, so he ran out. It was invincible to Yuntao's troops, and at this time it was even more disintegrated, scattered and fled, and only Sun Xiao and his Dragon and Tiger Army fought and retreated, always maintaining combat effectiveness and exiting safely. The fate of the remaining four lieutenants is unknown.

Wang Rong took Lan Ji all the way without stopping, running out of the city for thirty miles, stopping in front of a dilapidated mountain temple. It's not that Wang Rong wants to stop, but the horse is exhausted, carrying two people to gallop wildly, Lan Ji is tall and strong, very heavy. The horse was so tired that his nose was panting.

Lan Ji was still in a coma, and he didn't have food and water with him, so Wang Rong was also hungry and panicked at this time. But I couldn't find anyone in this barren mountain and wilderness. I vaguely remember that the nearest village here is still ten miles away, but fortunately it was very sunny tonight, looking up at the sky and looking at the Big Dipper to discern the direction. Then, with great difficulty, he helped Langi to lie on his horse's back and walked in the direction of the village.

Hua Feihua was still observing at this time, and she also saw the one-sided situation, but it was still impossible to get out of the city at this time. The cigarette has been hidden in a hanging frame on the beams of the house, which is not easy to detect. Hua Feihua was worried that the soldiers would do evil after they were defeated, so she hid in the clutter and followed the gap to observe the outside situation.

As expected, there were already soldiers in the city who began to pry open the doors of large families and enter to loot. Pawnshops, pharmacies, and money banks are all spared. Someone who resisted the slightest was hacked to death by a knife on the spot. The sound of wailing, the shouting, the incessant barking of dogs, the terrible howls, the blood-red streets, and the bloody footprints everywhere. Such a fortress in the northern frontier, Bingma County turned into a blood-stained hell overnight.

Hua Feihua's house is the most dilapidated in the whole street, and the door panels are flickering. Only the soldiers who took advantage of the chaos to loot were completely disdainful of such people. Even so, Hua Feihua never relaxed her vigilance, tensed her nerves, and if someone rushed in, she would rush out and lure the soldiers away. It wasn't until dawn, when the sky was getting brighter, that the soldiers gradually stopped. All the big households in the city were robbed, and none of them were spared.

Yuntao is a greedy man, and he has no accusations against this robbery. Lan Ji was run away, it was very tricky, and 10,000 people were sent overnight to find Lan Ji's whereabouts, dead or alive, no matter who he was, if he caught Lan Ji, he would be rewarded with a thousand taels of silver.

Sun Xiao's dragon and tiger soldiers withdrew from the south gate outside the city, and they invariably walked in the same direction as Wang Rong, but they were not as fast as Wang Rong, and arrived at the mountain temple after Wang Rong left.

Lu Yunli and Dongyang went out of the city before the war, all the way to the south, and saw a village in the middle of the night, so they found someone to spend the night. The village is located in the middle of nowhere, and few people pass by, and the people in the village are very hospitable.

The village is not big, there are only a dozen families, and Lu Yunli and Dongyang live in a grass hut. Before he could sleep, he heard someone calling the door outside, Lu Yunli heard that the voice was Wang Rong, and when he opened the door and came out, it was really him. Then he saw Lan Ji on the back of the horse behind him. Dongyang then came out, saw the general on horseback, and hurriedly stepped forward to help him down, seeing that he was still unconscious, and helped him into the grass hut. The people of the village heard a noise outside, and even though it was late at night, they all came out to see the excitement.

Lu Yunli said to the villagers who were watching the excitement: "This person is my fellow countryman, he is addicted to alcohol, he is drunk and sleeps on horseback, and he walks slowly, and he only arrives at this time." ”

After watching it for a while, the villagers felt that there was nothing unusual, and they all went back to sleep.

Everyone was anxious to see that Lan Ji's injuries were getting worse and worse, and no one knew how to heal. When he was still at a loss, he heard the footsteps of a large army marching outside.

Wang Rong whispered: "I'll go out to see if Yuntao's troops have chased here, if they catch here, I'll ride a horse to lead them away, and you can find another way out." Without waiting for the men to reply, he turned and went out.

Lu Yunxuan really admires people like Wang Rong who stepped forward at a critical moment.

Wang Rong went out, Dongyang picked up Lan Ji on his back, ready to run out at any time.

There was no shouting outside, and after a while, Wang Rong came back and came in with two people. One is Sun Xiao, and the other is a military doctor of the Dragon and Tiger Army.

The military doctor looked at Lan Ji's injuries, opened the medicine box, took out four vials in it, mixed the four medicines in a medicine jar, and poured half a bottle of spirits. Sun Xiao came over to help remove all the previous gauze on Lan Ji's body, put on new medicine, and bandaged it. He fed Lan Ji two black pills and went down with some water.

After doing this, Sun Xiao went out to settle the soldiers, and said to the commander: "Stay here tonight, don't disturb the villagers, and always be vigilant against the pursuers." The commanders took the command and dispersed. Sun Xiao's dragon and tiger soldiers are the most disciplined and have the strongest combat effectiveness. The Dragon and Tiger Army camped and rested on the north side of the village.

Sun Xiao came back to see that Lan Ji was already breathing smoothly, and after a while, he opened his eyes and saw the four people around him together. Seeing that he was in a broken grass hut again, he roughly understood in his heart, but he still had to ask Sun Xiao: "Didn't the crusade against Yuntao succeed?"

Sun Xiao shook his head and said, "Only my Dragon and Tiger Army does not lose a few people, and the other four armies have all fallen into Yuntao's tricks, and their life and death are uncertain." ”

Hearing this, Lan Ji slowly closed his eyes.

Sun Xiao said on the side: "We still have 10,000 people, the general will recover from his injuries quickly, and then we will counterattack Bingma County, with your command, are you still afraid of him Yuntao." Lan Ji just closed his eyes and stopped talking.

Sun Xiao called the military doctor out and asked, "How many days will the general recover?"

The military doctor replied: "If you recuperate well, you can recover like an ordinary person in seven or eight months." ”
