At the end of the Sui Dynasty

Chapter 567 The Battle of Xingyang

After Zhang Xutuo sent out the three favorite generals under his command, the next day, according to the original plan, he led the main force of the Bafeng Battalion to march towards Xingyang County with great fanfare, and Zhai Rang also led the Wagang Army to take the initiative to fight.

Zhai Dazhao played very "excellently", repeatedly fought and lost, and kept shrinking the front line. When he retreated to Xingyang County, Zhai Dazhang probably felt that this was too embarrassing, so he decided to be tough and ordered the whole army to stick to it. To block Zhang Xutuo, Bafengying must not let Bafengying move forward.

However, Zhai Dada's wish to be the head of the family is very full, but the reality is very skinny. Although he has a large number of people and strong troops, they are all "grass head kings" from all corners of the country, just like Wang Bo, Meng Rang, Hao Xiaode and so on. He is the leader of the hegemony side, and after taking refuge in Wagang, he is still in charge of commanding the original team, so the orders are inconsistent and chaotic, and everyone just follows their original boss. How can such an army be so powerful?
The most important point is that whether it is Wang Bo, Meng Rang, or Hao Jiaode, these people were all defeated by Zhang Xutuo. I was timid, and trembled even more when I saw the flag of the Bafengying. How can I fight this battle hard?
I saw more than [-] infantrymen of Bafeng Battalion rolling forward like a whirlwind, and the pattering footsteps of giant shield hands seemed to be a Cui Mingfu. The sourness of the wind coming from all directions, all the bandit soldiers who were involved in the eight wind array all went in standing and came out lying down.

At this moment, the Bafengying was very much like a giant beast that devoured the sky, continuously swallowing the bandits into its belly, and finally turned into a pile of broken limbs and wreckage thrown into the formation.

Those bandit soldiers saw their companions being drawn into the Eight Wind Formation from a distance, their heads rolled and blood flowed like a river, and they all ran away in fright, shouting as they ran, "The Eight Wind Camp is coming, run for your life!"

"Run away, the Bafeng Battalion is here!"

"Run away, whoever blocks will die!"

The thieves cried for their fathers and mothers, scurrying across the mountains and plains, retreating like a tide, as long as they ran a little slower, they would die if they were caught by the Bafengying.

Di Hong was so frightened that his face turned pale, he rode his horse and ran to Zhai Rang quickly, and said in a low voice: "I'm defeated, I can't stand it anymore, the master should run for your life, Bafengying is coming, if you don't run, run away!" I won't drop it."

Zhai Rang was also shocked, both scared and regretful, he looked up to the sky and sighed: "Zhang Xutuo is really powerful, Bafengying is really invincible, Li Mi mistaken me, Li Mi mistaken me!"

"Li Mi, that bastard, also said that he has a clever plan to defeat Zhang Xutuo, you're just fucking bragging, it's over for now." Zhai Hong said cursingly.

Zhai Rang sighed and said: "Don't blame Mi Gong, it's a certain family's incompetence. There are [-] troops in the sky, but they can't stop Zhang Xutuo's [-] troops."

Di Hong hurriedly defended Zhai Rang, saying: "It's nothing to do with the head of the family. It's all because Zhang Xutuo is too ruthless. Bafengying is too powerful. No one can stand it, and neither can Li Mi. Fortunately, we attacked Xingyang this time." I have made a lot of money, even if I return to Wagang, it will be enough for him to live comfortably for a few years, you don’t need to think too much about it, let’s withdraw quickly!"

Zhai Rang was right when he thought about it, he waved his hand and said, "Ru Xin, pass on my order to order Meng Rang to lead his men to resist Zhang Xutuo temporarily and cover the retreat of the army."

Wang Ruxin hurried to deliver the order, but there was a commotion all around, and finally found Meng Rang, but this Meng master was just smearing some blood mixed with plant ashes on his face, and even took off his armor and changed into ordinary clothes. At first glance, it is the rhythm of preparing to run.

"Boss Meng, what are you doing?" Wang Ruxin frowned.

Meng Rang smiled awkwardly and said, "Brother Wang, what do you want me to do?"

Wang Ruxin said in a deep voice: "The head of the family ordered you to resist Zhang Xutuo temporarily and cover the retreat of the army."

Meng Rang's complexion changed drastically, and he lost his voice and said, "Brother Wang, are you kidding me? Zhang Xutuo is so powerful, Bafengying is crazy, how can I resist?"

It is said that Meng Rang had [-] troops, and Zhang Xutuo came to suppress him. He bullied Zhang Xutuo, who had few people, but was beaten to death by the latter, and fled to Shougou Ridge in a panic. The battalion was guarded at the foot of the ridge, and Meng Rang was unable to break through no matter how hard he attacked. He was trapped for a month, but in desperation he had no choice but to abandon his weapons and surrender and accept the call for security.

However, Meng Rang's "revolutionary" will is very firm. Not long after being recruited, he turned his back on his old career, and was also killed by Zhang Xutuo. He couldn't stay in Qi County any longer, so he ran to Wagang. Zhai Rang.

So, Meng Rang's fear of Zhang Xutuo and Bafengying went deep into his bone marrow, so let him stay and die?
Don't even think about it!

Wang Ruxin sternly said: "This is the order of the head of the family. Does the Meng head want to disobey the order and not obey?"

Meng Rang sneered and said: "Wang Ruxin, don't use chicken feathers as arrows. I don't like this. If you have the ability, you can bring someone up yourself. Letting others die is nothing like a hero."

"Yeah, do it yourself if you have the ability, don't take us as a scapegoat." People under Meng Rang's command scolded one after another.

Wang Ruxin was shocked and angry, but he also understood that if he stopped Meng Rang from running, he was afraid that he would be torn to pieces by these people in no time, so he had no choice but to ride his horse and leave, no matter what!

As the Eight Wind Camp went all the way, the Wagang Army ran away like a group of chickens and dogs. Zhang Xutuo couldn't help being overjoyed when he saw this. It seemed that he had overestimated the so-called main force of the Wagang Army, which was also vulnerable.

"Kill kill kill!!!"

"Kill kill kill!!!"

The Bafengying went all out and kept pushing forward, killing heads rolling and killing corpses all over the field. Unknowingly, they came to the vicinity of Dahai Temple in the northeast of Xingyang City. The terrain here is open and suitable for battles. Because of this, so Zhang Xutuo and Qin Shubao agreed to meet here, so as to completely defeat the Wagang Army in one fell swoop.

Today is August [-]th, exactly the day they agreed on!
Qin Shubao, Luo Shixin, and Cheng Yaojin are the three fierce generals under Zhang Xutuo's command. They have never lost their chains, so Zhang Xutuo continued to order to advance regardless of the exhaustion of the Eight Wind Camp. The Wagang Army will die without a place to bury them, and the Bafeng Battalion will tear them all to pieces.

Bafeng Battalion continued to stride forward, like a huge meat grinder, constantly harvesting human lives.

At this moment, on a pagoda in Dahai Temple, Li Mi was condescendingly watching the situation on the battlefield. Seeing the Bafengying attacking without stopping, a sneer appeared on his face. Those who fall, each of them do what they like is a disaster. Zhang Xutuo, Zhang Xutuo, you have experienced many battles and are invincible, but this time you are too confident. A generation of famous generals will eventually fall here. It's pathetic!"

Li Mi gave an order, and the ambushes who were ambushing in the woods near Dahai Temple suddenly rushed out, cutting off the back of Bafengying, and surrounded it, arrows poured down like locusts.

Although Zhang Xutuo was suddenly ambushed, he was in danger, and commanded the Eight Wind Battalion to break through in one direction while resisting.

It's just that since Li Mi has set up an ambush, how can you allow the Bafengying to break out easily? The fortifications everywhere firmly resisted the advance of the Bafengying, and then the cavalry repeatedly launched attacks from all directions.

At this time, Zhang Xutuo's face finally became dignified, and he hastily adjusted the Bafeng Battalion from the offensive mode to the defensive mode, forming an airtight formation, firmly resisting the Wagang Army's offensive.

At this time, Zhang Xutuo had confidence in victory. As long as Qin Qiong, Luo Shixin and Cheng Yaojin were killed, he would immediately turn from defense to offense and win the final victory.

It's just that what Zhang Xutuo didn't consider was, can the three of Qin Qiong and the others really come to meet up?

Zhai Rang had already run far away, but when he heard the report that Li Mi had trapped Zhang Xutuo, he immediately turned around and ran back with his men and horses. When he saw that Bafengying was indeed surrounded, he couldn't help being overjoyed and laughed loudly. Said: "Pu Shangong didn't mistake me, Zhang Xutuo is trapped!"

Meng Rang, Wang Bo, Hao Xiaode and other "grass head kings" couldn't help being surprised when they saw this, the invincible and invincible Bafengying was really trapped, Pu Shangong is awesome!

Everyone observed for a while, and found that Bafengying really changed from a fierce beast with teeth and claws into a trapped beast, so they became more courageous and joined the ranks of beatings.

No matter how powerful the Eight Wind Camp is, it is not made of iron. It has been exhausted for a long time, and it has only been supported by a momentum until now. It suddenly changed from offensive to defensive, and it immediately became exhausted. Li Mi's people have been waiting for work with leisure, and their strength is several times that of the Bafengying, so the Bafengying gradually cannot resist.

The sun passed over everyone's heads and tilted to the west again. Qin Shubao and the others still hadn't arrived. The defense of Bayingfeng had become full of loopholes.

Zhang Xutuo finally became a little anxious at this moment, and personally led the elite to break through.

Zhang Xutuo's martial arts skills are superb, I saw that he took the lead, it was the Buddha who blocked and killed the Buddha, and the god killed the god, Wang Bodang tried to step forward to stop him, but he almost died under Zhang Xutuo's knife, and Cai Jiande also took a slap , vomited blood on the spot and was carried down.

Seeing this, Li Mi immediately ordered to let the road out, and after Zhang Xutuo broke out of the encirclement, he immediately closed up again and continued to surround and kill the soldiers of the Eight Wind Camp who failed to break through.

After Zhang Xutuo struggled to break out of the encirclement, he found that only a thousand people rushed out with him, and more subordinates were still in the encirclement, so he led them back without hesitation.

When Zhang Xutuo broke out from the siege for the second time, he saw that the subordinates who followed him were only 700 people, which was less than the last time, so he went back again.

Five times like this, Zhang Xutuo fought in and out, only to find that there were only dozens of subordinates left behind him. He couldn't help being exhausted, looked up to the sky and sighed, and simply abandoned his horse and said: "You go first, this general Go back and save people!" After speaking, he took a big stride and went back to kill.

Those dozens of subordinates didn't leave, they also followed back without hesitation, with determined and tragic expressions, because they all knew that they couldn't leave today.

The brothers are all sons of Qi Jun, either go together or die together!
