() "The battle of Wu County is of great importance, how can there be any delay!! I will immediately gather troops and horses, and look forward to Linchuan's advance to stop the reinforcements of the Wu thieves!!"

As soon as Xia Houyuan finished speaking, a general came to report that Zhuge Ke, the son of Zhuge Jin, the chief minister of the Eastern Wu Dynasty, led [-] Jiaozhou troops to kill Changle. The vanguard general Zhou Yi came ten miles away from Changle City! !

When Xia Houyuan heard this, his complexion changed suddenly, and he exclaimed in amazement.

"Wu thief, you came so fast. Jun? br >

It turned out that Zhuge Ke knew the urgency of the war, and he also understood the principle that soldiers are precious and fast, and the Jiaozhou army dredged the mountain roads, walking on the bumpy mountain roads, but it seemed to be walking on flat ground.So Zhuge Ke drove on a starry night and rushed to the territory of Changle City, and then sent his confidant general Zhou Yi to lead [-] soldiers as the vanguard to approach Changle City first, so as to teach Xia Houyuan not to move rashly.

Now Jiang Wei's strategy can be said to be completely disrupted.Xia Houyuan's face was full of anxiety, while Jiang Wei's eyes were calm, calm and determined, and he quickly came up with a countermeasure and talked to Xia Houyuan.

"General Xiahou, please be safe and don't be impatient!! The matter has come to this point, we must not mess up. The Wu thief is approaching. If our army withdraws at this time, the Wu thief will definitely cover up and attack our army's luggage. It is bound to be in danger. Now Xiahou The general can quickly send a team of light cavalry to your Majesty's army, and report to His Majesty, so that His Majesty can prepare for it early. But we are here in Chang'an, and we will defeat the Wu thieves in the future. Your Majesty is so talented that he sent Jia Tai long ago Fu Yin Xuzhou army is looking forward to marching in Danyang, presumably at this time the battle in Wu County is about to be decided. At that time, I will wait for your majesty's order and adapt accordingly."

Jiang Wei said with concentration, Xia Houyuan was sure when he heard the words, and the panic on his face soon faded away.Xia Houyuan stared at the tiger's eyes, and Jiang Wei looked at each other for a while, as if he had great trust in Jiang Wei, he nodded and said.

"Bo Yue's words are reasonable, so I will obey your words!!"

So Xia Houyuan hurriedly summoned a confidant officer to come, and took pen and ink to quickly write a letter. When the officer arrived, Xia Houyuan had finished compiling the book, taught it to the officer, and sent him on the way after sternly admonishing him.Afterwards, Xia Houyuan's complexion was shocked, and he talked with Jiang Weijiao.

"Bo Yue, you have not recovered from your injuries, so you commanded troops in the city to guard against the Wu thieves. This general led the troops out of the city first, and repelled the vanguard of the Wu thieves!!"

Jiang Wei surrendered and accepted the order.Xia Houyuan nodded, and rushed out of the government office in a hurry to go to order soldiers.

Let's say that Zhou Yi followed Zhuge Ke's plan and led his troops forward, when suddenly there was a gust of wind and dust in front of him, and there was a loud shout of killing, and there was a burst of hurried hooves, which was astonishingly fast.Zhou Yi was startled, and when he looked around, he saw thousands of Wei army cavalry galloping towards him. The first general was dressed in black and gold tiger-patterned armor, golden tiger-roaring cloud brocade robe, and held a long spear in his hand. He looked at the banner behind him, Then he can recognize that the coming general is Xia Houyuan.

Zhou Yi's expression changed suddenly, he reined in the horse anxiously, and ordered the sergeant to stop.As soon as Zhou Yi's order fell, the three thousand Jiaozhou soldiers immediately stopped their castration. Although the formation was a bit chaotic, it was already extremely good for the Jiaozhou soldiers who had only been training for a few months.Xia Houyuan saw the Jiaozhou army in front of them set up a formation, and with one order, three thousand cavalry reined in their horses one after another.Zhou Yi was secretly startled when he saw it, people all over the world said that the sharpness of soldiers and horses belonged to the Great Wei and Western Tang, seeing them today, they are really extraordinary.The powerful and murderous aura coming from the Wei army on the opposite side made Zhou Yi's heart flutter and he was horrified.

At this moment, Xia Houyuan suddenly charged his horse, rushed more than two feet, reined in the horse suddenly, and let out a howling, deafening, and dust billowed up.I saw Xia Houyuan holding up his spear, pointing at the Jiaozhou army formation, and shouted sharply.

"Xiahou Miaocai is here, how dare you wait for barbarians and foreign races to be presumptuous!! Surrender quickly, I will spare you waiting to die!!"

Hearing this, Zhou Yi pulled himself together, roared, pretended to be furious, and cursed in his mouth, expecting Xia Houyuan to rush to kill him.Xia Houyuan's face turned cold, and the flying horse went to meet him.Between the lightning and the flint, the two horses crossed, Zhou Yiyu wanted to strike first, and danced with the machete in his hand to look at Xia Houyuan's head.Xia Houyuan's face was cold, he moved to avoid, and quickly aimed at Zhou Yi with a spear.I saw Xia Houyuan's gun coming out like lightning, it was astonishingly fast, piercing the air and roaring, the wind of the gun hurt his face.Zhou Yi was so frightened that he quickly withdrew his knife to block it. There was a loud 'bang', Zhou Yi let out a miserable cry, the tiger's head shattered, and the sword flew out of his hand.As the men and horses passed by, all the Wei soldiers in the opposite formation raised their weapons high and shouted in unison.Zhou Yi's expression changed drastically, he quickly reined in his horse and fled.Xia Houyuan's face was cold, but he didn't chase after him. He held down the spear, took the iron-bodied bow on his back, took three thin arrows in a row, pulled the bowstring sharply, and aimed at Zhou Yi's vest.The sound of bowstrings suddenly rose violently, and the three arrows lined up side by side, shooting towards Zhou Yi's back.Zhou Yi heard a sudden noise behind him, Jiaozhou soldiers shouted anxiously and beware of sniping arrows.When Zhou Yi looked back anxiously, he saw three thin arrows flying towards them, there was no way to avoid them, so he quickly swung his saber to block them.Just as Zhou Yi raised his hand, there was a swoosh, and blood burst out.Zhou Yi let out a cry of pain, spewing out blood, looking horrified, seeing that there was nothing in his hand, only then did he remember that his weapon had been blown away by Xia Houyuan just now.Suddenly, there was a heart-piercing pain, Zhou Yi's eyes went dark, and he fell off the horse, almost dead.

"Hmph! Barbarians and foreign races dare to be enemies with our Great Wei Dynasty, and they deserve to die!!"

Xia Houyuan snorted coldly, immediately swung his gun, and rode away on his horse. The morale of the Wei soldiers was greatly shaken, and they rode their horses to kill them one after another.Seeing Zhou Yi's death, the three thousand Jiaozhou soldiers were frightened and ran away.Xia Houyuan yelled loudly, and those who surrendered would not be killed. Three thousand Wei soldiers who were like wolves and tigers responded one after another, and their shouts shook the sky and the earth.Zhou Yi died, the Jiaozhou soldiers had no one to command, most of them surrendered, only a small half of them resisted tenaciously, the rest fled and died.Xia Houyuan led his troops to kill and scatter the remaining people, and captured more than a thousand and hundreds of prisoners, then withdrew his troops and returned to the city.

On the other side, Zhuge Ke and Hu Kang led their troops to ambush in a certain dense forest.It turned out that Zhuge Ke knew that Xia Houyuan was impatient, so he first taught Zhou Yi to lead the troops to go first, and lured Xia Houyuan to this ambush place, and then ambushed.Zhuge Ke has been on the Marquis for a long time, but he still doesn't see Zhou Yi leading Xia Houyuan over, he was suspicious, suddenly a group of remnants fled in embarrassment.Zhuge Ke was startled when he saw that it was a soldier from his own army, and quickly ordered Mrs. Hu to lead his troops to stop him.Mrs. Hu took the order, and immediately led hundreds of soldiers out, stopped the group of remnants, and then introduced Zhuge Ke.Zhuge Ke's face was cold, and he asked about the battle. The dozens of remnants of the soldiers still had lingering fear on their faces, their faces were ashamed, they cried bitterly, and talked about it one after another.

When Zhuge Ke heard that Zhou Yi was shot and killed by Xia Houyuan within a short time, his complexion changed drastically, his brows were deeply furrowed, and he secretly said in surprise.

"This old man has such strong martial arts! Sure enough, the sword is not old, so don't underestimate it!!"

After Zhuge Ke thought about it, the expression on his face darkened again. Now he paid the price of nearly three thousand soldiers and one of his confidants. After seeing Xia Houyuan's bravery, he naturally dared not act rashly.Zhuge Ke then led his troops to look east, and set up a camp on a hill ten miles east of Changle City, which happened to resist the direction of Wei Jun's advance to Linchuan.Zhuge Ke faltered for a while, but he became more and more courageous when he was frustrated. Then he made another plan. After building a village, he taught the soldiers to set up a false defense, but led the army to lie in ambush behind the village, trying to lure the Wei army to attack, and then Volunteer.

Let's say that Xia Houyuan took his army back to the city and quickly sent scouts to find out where the Jiaozhou army was.At dusk, the scouts reported back, saying that Zhuge Ke led the army to build a village on the hilltop ten miles east of the city to defend against emptiness.Xia Houyuan was overjoyed when he heard that, and laughed aloud.

"Haha! I heard that Zhuge Ke was called a child prodigy of the Eastern Wu Dynasty. He had a great strategy. I saw him today, but he didn't know that he had just set up a camp. He didn't set up a camp. He had to guard against the enemy's attack. Now it's time Great timing, this general will lead an army to attack tonight, and we will kill every single one of them!!"

Jiang Wei, who was next to Xia Houyuan, heard the words, but his eyes sank, and he shook his head very solemnly.

"Wait a minute, General Xiahou. The so-called famous man is worthy of fame. This Zhuge Ke can enjoy a high reputation at a young age, so he is naturally no ordinary person." Then Zhuge Ke thought that the general was impatient, and today he will take it for a while, and he will definitely be against him. He felt contemptuous.

I think he must have deliberately let his guard down, but ambushed behind the stronghold. If the general rushes in rashly, if he is in an ambush, what should he do? "

Xia Houyuan frowned when he heard this.However, he knew Jiang Wei's ability well, and after pondering for a while, he asked.

"Then according to Bo Yue's opinion, what should we do?"

When Jiang Wei heard this, his eyes were piercing, and he said in a deep voice.

"It turned out to be so. I might as well follow the plan. General, you lead the troops to go first, but I lead an army to go around behind. When Zhuge Ke thinks that the general has caught the trick and leads the troops out, I will lead the troops to cover up and kill him. Instead, kill him by surprise!!"

Xia Houyuan was overjoyed when he listened to the plan, and even said it was wonderful.But soon Xia Houyuan frowned, and said to Jiang Wei with great concern.

"Your injuries are not yet healed. The doctor said earlier that you should not go to war lightly. You stay in the city, and I will order a fine soldier to lead the army!!"

Jiang Wei listened, smiled lightly, was also quite moved in his heart, and thanked him with his hand.

"General Xiahou don't need to worry too much. Wei has been resting for more than ten days, and his injury has healed seven or eight times, so it is not a hindrance. However, there are no strong generals in the Jiaozhou army. They are usually young, and Wei has more than enough to rub."

Jiang Wei's eyes flashed with sharp light, Xia Houyuan also knew Jiang Wei's martial arts skills, and saw Jiang Wei's fighting spirit, so he agreed.

So Xia Houyuan followed Jiang Wei's plan and immediately made arrangements.That night, at the second watch of the night, Jiang Wei led his troops to sneak out from the direction of the west gate first.Gradually, the night color became thicker, as thick as ink.The moon is dark and the wind is high, what a murderous night.At the time of the third watch, Xia Houyuan led his troops forward and came out of the east gate in a mighty manner.The Jiaozhou army, who was inquiring on the road, saw that the Wei army was looking at the camp to put down the kill in a big way, so he hurried back to the camp and reported it to Zhuge Ke.When Zhuge Ke heard that Xia Houyuan didn't know the secret, and was so ostentatious to attract troops to attack, he sneered in his heart, his eyes were cold, and he slandered.

"Old man, if you dare to underestimate me, I will teach you tonight that you will never return!!"

Murderous aura surged all over Zhuge Ke's body, with a bewitching red light in his eyes.The soldiers on the left and right could not help but change their expressions and tremble when they saw it.This young Zhuge Ke is actually a bloodthirsty person.

About half an hour later, there was a sudden shout of killing at the foot of the mountain.Xia Houyuan galloped wildly, leading the charge, and crashed into the Jiaozhou army's stronghold.Amidst the shouts of killing, Xia Houyuan laughed wildly, shouted Zhuge Ke's name, rode his horse and galloped away to the barracks in the center.At this moment, there was a sudden burst of bow strings in the village, and countless bowmen suddenly rushed out from the left and right sides, firing arrows randomly.Xia Houyuan was rushing forward, when he suddenly heard the arrows from both sides cracking violently, and the ringing was endless, his expression changed drastically, and he shouted loudly while drawing his gun to resist.

"Not good!! It's a plan!! Withdraw the troops quickly!!"

As soon as Xia Houyuan's order fell, the Wei soldiers who were rushing back immediately panicked and retreated one after another, seeing chaos.Zhuge Ke saw it eagerly and was overjoyed, thinking that he would surely win, he immediately ordered the soldiers to beat the drums and lead the soldiers to fight.All of a sudden, the sound of beating drums suddenly rose violently, shaking the ground and shaking the mountains, and all the ambush soldiers came out in all directions, hoping that Wei soldiers would swarm over to kill them.Zhuge Ke drew out the sword at his waist, vigorous and majestic, and shouted at the soldiers to charge and kill.The Jiaozhou soldiers were aggressive and murderous, rushing to kill them.Xia Houyuan led his troops back in embarrassment, rushing out of the village one after another.Jiaozhou soldiers were like hungry wolves, chasing them desperately. Most of them chased for several miles.At this moment, there was another earth-shattering cry of killing from behind the mountain.When Zhuge Ke heard this, his complexion changed drastically, with an expression of disbelief.It was too late to say it, and then it was too fast, and the shouting and killing sounded violently.
