Empress, she is beautiful Lu Ziye

Chapter 589 This is the main battlefield

The sound of fighting aroused the blood in the chests of the soldiers, and the sound of war drums seemed to come from the horizon, beating heavily in everyone's ears. They could only pierce the enemy's bodies with their guns and knives to calm down the sound of the drums. Inspiring restlessness.

A stream of warm blood splashed on Xiao Rongxi's face, adding a bit of anger to him.

He took a look at the battle situation around him, and after several fights, he signaled to Zong Bei.

Zongbei immediately sent out a signal and everyone evacuated in order.

Seeing this, Fang Congkun immediately gained confidence, raised his sword and shouted, "Chase!"

The war horses galloped and swarmed up, chasing the Zhou army.

Ma Jing lags behind for a while, looking at the troops coming and leaving in a hurry, he frowns and smells something amiss.

The spies clearly reported that there were tens of thousands of enemies coming, but now there were only about 5,000 people, and most of them were light cavalry, with a small proportion of infantry. It didn't look like they were ready to attack the military camp.

A thought flashed through Ma Jing's mind, his face changed slightly, and he shouted to Fang Congkun, who was already red-eyed, "Don't chase me, it's a scam!"

Fang Congkun was already dazzled by the victory at this moment. The opponent was losing ground, so why didn't he pursue him?
Besides, Xiao Rongxi is also there. If he can be captured alive, it doesn't matter if he pays a price.

Capture the thief first and capture the king first. As long as Xiao Rongxi is captured, the Zhou army will be defeated in one blow. Even if it is a bit risky, he still has to give it a try.

Although Fang Congkun is the coach, there are still many people in the camp who are dissatisfied with him, especially Ma Jing's group.

When they saw Ma Jing pulling on the reins and slowing down his pace, they followed him and asked, "General, what's going on?"

"This time the Zhou army may be deceitful, so it is not appropriate to pursue them."

The colleague glanced at Fang Congkun who was running away, "But he..."

Ma Jing gritted his teeth, feeling powerless.

He finally realized how insensitive this person was to the situation.

Even if His Majesty suspected that he was secretly connected with the prince, why did he send this person to such a big war?

"General, can we follow?"

If you follow them, you will be worried that the other party will cheat and everyone will be surrounded; if you don't follow them, you will not obey the military orders, and you will most likely be stabbed by Fang Congkun.

Ma Jing thought for a while and decided, "Follow, but don't get too close. You all should be alert and retreat after discovering the problem. Also, prepare your bows and arrows!"

"understand!"

Xiao Rongxi rode his horse forward, keeping a close distance from Fang Congkun.

The line should not be too long, as it would make people impatient, but it should not be too short, as it would make the other party feel that they can easily catch up.

Only when the length is appropriate can people be caught. He turned to look at the people chasing after him, feeling a little relieved.

As expected, Fang Congkun followed.

When they reached a pass, Xiao Rongxi reined in the reins and slowed down.

There are mountains rising from the ground on both sides of the place. Although they are not high, they still provide a natural overlooking situation.

"Uu——"

Zongbei stopped beside Xiao Rongxi and saw Fang Congkun leading the people into the pass. He raised his hand, and soldiers from Dazhou pushing rolling stones appeared on the cliffs on both sides.

As soon as Zong Bei released his hand, the rolling stones were pushed down, big or small, and hit the ground straight.

Liang Jun was scattered to pieces. Fang Congkun reacted instantly and shouted loudly, "Retreat, retreat quickly!"

However, in the chaos, few people heard his voice clearly.

After the rolling stone, there were a series of arrows, and the men and horses he led fell one by one. On the contrary, Ma Jing, who was behind, stopped early and did not break into the pass.

He looked at Xiao Rongxi standing on the horse in the distance. Although he could see a small shadow, he still felt ridiculed.

At this point, what else is unclear?
Dazhou knew that they could not dominate in terms of military strength alone, so they used their geographical advantages to consume their own forces first.

He also figured out Fang Congkun's thoughts, and used the losses suffered during the pursuit to increase his momentum.

"General," a colleague said anxiously beside him, "how can we save him?"

Ma Jing snorted, although he had the intention but was powerless, "The opponent has the advantage. If we try to attack them, we will die. The mountains on both sides are not high, so you ask the archers to shoot arrows towards the mountains."

"Yes."

Xiao Rongxi raised his chin and looked at Fang Congkun who was struggling in the pass, with a smile of unknown meaning at the corner of his mouth.

It is true that they attacked Liang Jun, but they did not use their troops to fight head-on. This is the main battlefield.

"Your Majesty," Zongbei stepped forward and asked, "Are we going to capture him alive?"

Although it looks a bit difficult, you can still catch it if you want.

Xiao Rongxi lowered his eyelids, looked at the person who was desperately protecting Fang Congkun, and shook his head, "No need, he doesn't have much value. It would be a waste to catch him."

The truly valuable person is Ma Jing.

But it's a pity that Ma Jing is an old fox and did not step forward even in this situation. This trick did not work on him.

Moreover, Fang Congkun and Ma Jing were not dealt with, and the people under his command were divided into two factions. It was more useful to leave him in Liang Jun's camp than to capture him.
