Chapter 87
With one hit, Cheng Yufeng did not miss the credit of shooting the opponent's general to death, and quickly led his people past the barbarian's tent and rushed towards the city gate.

He was still worried about Xu Shu's safety. He was clear about the priorities. It would be good to make more contributions, but Xu Shu's safety was still the first priority. Therefore, he would never let the barbarians break into the city gate.

Captain Zhou took a step back, when he saw the barbarian's tent, he also saw the flames, and thought that Cheng Yufeng had set the main tent on fire.

He gritted his teeth, knowing that he would not be able to take the credit. He clamped his legs on the horse's belly and prepared to speed up to the battlefield.

At this time, the person behind suddenly reminded:
"Lieutenant, what is burning should not be the main tent, but grain and grass, Hu people. The location of the fire is the left rear, which is usually the place where Hu people prevent food and grass when they are stationed in the camp, and Chief Guard Cheng and the others came from the right side It is more convenient to burn food and grass, but burning the main tent will have to fight head-to-head with the barbarians stationed there, and it should not end so soon."

Li Junshi and this person walked in the same row, and they were both a horse's distance behind Captain Zhou's side.From this point of view, we know that they are in a competitive relationship.

Therefore, even if the other party is right, Li Junshi has to refute:
"So what? You want the captain to stay here regardless of the military order?"

The other party did not directly respond to Li Junshi's words, but continued to say to Captain Zhou:

"But if you capture the general or other important figures, the credit will be greater than following them as an assistant. What's more, you, Captain, are on the same level as Captain Meng, and you are under the command of the Governor of Fucheng. As long as you have credit in your hands, that's it. So what if you don't obey their command? What's more, you don't have to lead the team. The Hu camp has been set on fire by Guard Cheng. It's a mess now. We only need to separate a small group of troops. , you can reap the benefits.”

After speaking, he puffed out his chest, glanced at Military Advisor Li with some satisfaction, and said:
"The subordinates are willing to go."

Only then did Junshi Li realize the opponent's purpose, and argued angrily:

"The subordinates are also willing to go. Although the barbarians are in chaos, they need to be quick-witted if they want to kill the master account."

He looked the person opposite up and down again, and said with disdain:
"This kind of thing is up to me."

Lieutenant Zhou was moved by this proposal, but he glanced at the person who suggested it, and then at Junshi Li, and his heart was already biased.

Although Junshi Li was promoted to his current position by him, in the army, military merit is the last word. Junshi Li is weak in combat and has not made much contribution in terms of strategy. It is time for a good opportunity.

"Then let Commander Li lead a small team and fight quickly."

After speaking, without waiting for the other person to object, he clamped the horse's belly again, flicked the whip, and continued to gallop.

Except for the soldiers picked out by Junshi Li, everyone else followed Captain Zhou and left one after another.

When Colonel Zhou arrived, Cheng Yufeng had already started fighting with a small leader of the barbarians, and other guards also started fighting one after another, and the pressure on the defense in the city was instantly relieved.

Captain Meng noticed the battle outside the city, and happily slapped his son on the back of the head:
"Okay! Come in time, we can make dumplings for this group of sons of bitches! Hurry up, lead the soldiers to fight out through the side door, and help Cheng guards."

Meng Erlang was unexpectedly slapped and hissed in pain, but he didn't care to complain and looked at his father with bright eyes:
"Really? Let me go?"

"Go, boy, we, the Meng family, have to practice on the battlefield. This time the timing is good. We have prepared well enough, and there are reinforcements. It just so happens that you all go to fight and bring a few heads back to repay your merits."

Captain Zhou also joined the battle, and the person behind him looked at Captain Meng from a distance. The two looked at each other, and the person on the opposite side nodded and joined in the fight.

Lieutenant Meng smiled, humming softly in his heart, fellow countrymen, who doesn't think so.

Meng Erlang took his own father's elite cavalry and ran out from the small gate next to the city gate with arrogance. He carried a knife to harvest the heads of the nearby barbarians while running, and he didn't forget to turn around and tell the city to close the gate quickly. .

As for the few barbarians who took the opportunity to run into the city, it was not a problem. Even if they were really brave, but the ants killed too many elephants and entered the territory of Chengyang County, their prestige would not be tolerated.

The three parties surrounded the barbarians in the middle from three sides, and for a moment the cold light of swords, guns and halberds gleamed, bringing a bit of coolness to the scorching noon.

And the hearts of the barbarians became even colder.

In this group of Hu soldiers, in fact, there are various forces behind them, including Ah Wang's subordinates, and there are also various Hu Yan clans who were borrowed by their husbands-naturally, in the end, they all have to divide the spoils.

Another part is the followers of the former king. They will not die for their master, but they are not so convinced by this one in their hearts. Get a lot of benefits.

Therefore, when they had the upper hand, they could still remain united. But now that someone had made dumplings out of them, all parties' plans began to change rapidly.

They were afraid that their side would suffer heavy losses, and that others would not lose enough; they wanted their side to flee back quickly, but they were also afraid that the others would flee first, and no one would lead the pursuers from Chengyang County.

Each is his own master, each has his own plans, and as his thoughts flow, the action of the battle lags behind.

However, Cheng Yufeng and Meng Erlang's cooperation was very tacit. Zhou Xiaowei had no one around him, and he fought hard, and there was Meng Xiaowei's fellow countrymen. Whether it was considering his own future or selling his fellow countrymen to save face, he spared no effort. Cooperate with Cheng Meng.

Between one fall and one fall, the situation on the battlefield was resolved.

Seeing that the situation was clear, Lieutenant Meng did not go into action personally. He only regarded these Hu soldiers as a whetstone for training the younger generations. He also sent some of his favored subordinates and his nephews at home to bring out some new soldiers to support them, so that the new soldiers could see more of them. See blood.

Then he pulled another veteran soldier who was about to take the wounded soldier back to camp, and asked:
"You came from the barracks? What is the princess doing?"

"Yes, the princess is arranging the logistics. The salt water sent up at that time was ordered by the princess to replenish water. The princess also took a lot of supplies from her home and sent them over for our people to take to use."

"Hmm... that's a little overkill. Just right, the situation has turned around now, and the outside is not too dangerous. Go back and ask the princess if you want to go out and kill a few people."

Naturally, Xu Shu would not be unwilling. She was very willing. Cheng Guard Feng Tuen Chang had left someone for her to go out with her to fight, which was enough.

She rode happily to arrive, and after listening to Captain Meng's instructions on safety, she happily led them out of the city again.
