Feng Yu Xueying ran fast, Lin Fengsheng and Mei Ruoxue returned to the camp first, and immediately beat the drum and raised the tent, and the elders of the various sects of the righteous army and the high-ranking generals of the pro-army came to discuss the matter. Lin Fengsheng said with a solemn face: "Just now, my cousin and I broke into the camp that came to help the thieves, and we have found out that the unknown thing reported by Tanma is a powerful siege weapon, including several artillery pieces, which is really extraordinary. I wonder what you think?"

Although Lin Fengsheng is a young man with a respected identity, he is gentle and approachable by nature, so the group of heroes is not rigid and speaks freely, and the pro-army generals are blindly humble, and everything is to obey General Yunlu's instructions. After expressing their own views, in short, they could not let these siege equipment reach the city, and they would intercept and kill this group of thieves halfway, and all kinds of equipment could be brought back for a few uses, but if they could not be carried, they would retreat and destroy them on the spot.

Lin Fengsheng also had this thought in his heart, and he appreciated everyone's strategy very much, and immediately ordered someone to blow the horn and order the troops, and personally led 5,000 strong men and horses to intercept and kill the thieves who came to help. The soldiers were high-spirited, their armor was sonorous, and they drove out of the gate and headed south.

The team traveled for several miles, and Yi Zhaoxiang rode a horse to gallop towards him, and said from a distance: "Tell the alliance leader, only a small group of thieves came to Zhang Jieba's camp, and most of them were killed, but there are still a few who escaped into the camp of the remnants, thinking that they came to report to Zhang Jieba. What to do, please decide the alliance leader. ”

The baggage carried by the thieves who came to aid was very important, so they were naturally cautious, Lin Fengsheng and Mei Ruoxue broke into the camp and behaved strangely, which had already aroused their vigilance. Immediately sent someone to inform the big boss and the military advisor.

Lin Fengsheng said: "Don't pay attention to it, I will wait here to get it, if I encounter obstacles, I will kill them!"

Then he raised his breath and shouted: "When the soldiers hear this, if they encounter an ambush on the way, they will use all the formations they practice on weekdays to face the enemy, and they must not mess up their formations, and those who do not listen to orders will be severely punished!" The voice was sent from afar, and the whole army heard it.

The soldiers suddenly agreed and continued to march south.

Halfway through the journey, he suddenly heard the sound of shouting and killing in the surrounding mountains, and suddenly rushed out a large number of thieves. The thieves on the left and right sides and in the rear moved forward rapidly from the two wings, and in a short time they gathered in one place, blocking the way with layers of defense. After several encounters, the thieves knew that the commander of the righteous army was extremely brave, and there was a way that there were no weak soldiers under the strong generals, and the soldiers under his command were naturally not general, so they did not dare to think of encircling and annihilating, but only tried to repel them to relieve the siege of the accomplices who came to help.

Lin Fengsheng pulled out his sword and shouted, "Crane Wing Formation!" and then rode back to the middle and rear of the team, which was where the main general of the formation was located.

All the soldiers moved in response, the heroes surrounded Lin Fengsheng, and the pro-soldiers spread out to the left and right, like a pair of huge wings. Lin Fengsheng pointed his sword, and the formation formed by the pro-army quickly closed, sandwiching the thieves in the middle. I only heard the sound of the blades clashing, and the two sides were already close to each other.

Lin Fengsheng waved his sword again and shouted, "This formation is advancing forward!"

The crowd rushed forward from their main formation, and the number of people decreased from back to front, and they pecked forward like sharp beaks. The thieves in front of them were difficult to resist and kept retreating.

The terrain here was narrow, and the formation was not fully deployed, and the formation continued to break into the bandit formation, while the pro-troops on both flanks followed slowly, as if the flapping wings were blocked by the headwind and folded behind them.

Seeing this, Lin Fengsheng shouted: "Change the edge of the arrow formation! The two wings are quickly moving closer to this formation!"

Hearing this, the group of heroes surrounding him moved to both sides, making way for a passage, and Lin Fengsheng urged the white horse to sit down and retreated dozens of feet. The pro-armies on both flanks were ordered to quickly merge into their positions. The formation changed abruptly, the group of heroes in front of them lined up in a triangular shape, and the pro-army was lined up in two columns on both sides of the main general, and all the blades moved forward quickly to the outside, as if it was a sharp arrow shot forward.

A group of thieves had no way to resist, and they were defeated and retreated, and the formation that blocked the way with less than a stick of incense had been washed away, scattered, leaving corpses all the way. An unstoppable array of thousands of men pushed forward, breaking out of the narrow terrain in a short time, and the road stretched out in a wilderness, lined with wild grass and dwarf shrubs.

As soon as the remnants of the thieves arrived in the open space, they scattered and fled, and the large array of arrows was not blocked at all, and the speed of advancement gradually slowed down, and everyone only wanted to annihilate all the thieves in their hearts, but they did not dare to change the formation without the commander's order.

Seeing this, Lin Fengsheng looked around, and saw that the thieves were scurrying around like headless flies, as if they were leaderless commanders, and said loudly: "Poor Kou Mo chase, turn into a crane wing array and go straight to the camp of the thieves!"

The crowd quickly turned back into the crane wing formation, and the two wings went straight forward to surround them, and many of the defeated rogues fled forward in a panic, and they were surrounded by the two wings and had almost no way to live. The brigade broke through the obstacles and went straight to the camp of the thieves.

The three armies were enthusiastic, like a fierce tiger descending from a high mountain, and the neighing of war horses was like a dragon coming out of a deep pool. Lin Fengsheng led the team of men and horses non-stop, and traveled for nearly an hour to the place where the thieves had camped before. I saw that the dense tent was still there, but it was silent and nowhere to be seen.

Lin Fengsheng was afraid of fraud, so he immediately ordered everyone to line up in formation, and the archers each held strong bows and crossbows to shoot their feet. Miao Le led more than 100 heroes of the rivers and lakes to rush into the camp to check, and after checking them one by one, he reported back: "Alliance leader, these thieves don't know what tricks they play, and there is no one in the camp." ”

Lin Fengsheng secretly said: "The thieves set up this empty city plan to hide people's eyes, they must have gone around the path to Zhang Stammer's camp." It's all my negligence for a while, if I send spies to investigate, I can wait for the work to intercept in the middle, and I don't have to go in vain. ”

Ordered to sit down and gallop out of the camp, circled around the empty camp, and found a path in the woods to the northwest, with many rut marks on it, and the trees on both sides also showed traces of new felling, apparently left by the thieves transporting heavy equipment. Lang Sheng said: "Immediately, the soldiers will be divided into two ways, Miao Erye, Wuweizi Daochang and others will lead the heroes of the righteous army to quickly go to ten miles outside Zhang Jieba's camp to set up an ambush to intercept, and Captain Guo, Captain Mei and I will pursue from behind together with the soldiers of the pro-army!"

Everyone agreed in unison, and the sound shook the mountains, and they quickly divided into two teams according to the words. The former was led by Miao Le and Wu Weizi and turned around and returned, while the latter followed Lin Fengsheng, Mei Ruoxue and Guo Xian'er to chase down the path of the thieves and absconding.

Gao Zhicheng returned to Beijing and left for many days, and the pro-army officers and soldiers were all led by Lin Fengsheng alone, during which he was exposed to the commander's benevolent and heroic deeds, and there was a faint intention of submission in his heart, and the wind of procrastination and laziness was greatly reined. However, after the usual neglect of practice, after the great battle, everyone was tired and moved slowly, and there was no trace of the thief all the way to the chase.

The thieves who came to help jumped over the wall in a hurry, naturally they didn't dare to slack off, and it took a lot of time for Lin Fengsheng to come back and forth and then send troops to attack, so the distance between the two could not be counted in miles. Lin Fengsheng was quite impatient and said: "Ben and the two captains Guo and Mei led the cavalry to chase the enemy first, and the rest of the soldiers rushed to help, so there must be no delay!"

There were about 2,000 pro-army troops participating in the attack, and nearly a quarter of the soldiers were equipped with horses, and they immediately followed Lin Fengsheng and others first. Lin Fengsheng rode the "Phoenix Feather Snow Shadow" galloping, and went first, four or five hundred war horses galloped later, and the sound of hooves was like thunder for a while, which was very spectacular.
