subvert the late Tang Dynasty

However, Jingxiang and Liu Han climbed to the top of the city under the protection of all the soldiers, looked at the enemy camp in the distance with binoculars, and saw five or six enemy camps rising into the sky. The fighting power was stunned, how could he have imagined that Xu Huaiyu was so strong that he could break through six villages one after another with 500 troops.

But looking at this posture Xu Huaiyu was still fighting, because the telescope magnification was not enough at that time, and the battlefield was far away, so he could only see the general situation.But that's pretty good, if you don't have a telescope, you can't see a little bit at all, you can only see the faint fire.

Jing Xiang handed the telescope to Liu Han and said, "Take a look."

Liu Han was also shocked after seeing it, and said sincerely: "If I didn't know in advance that General Xu only brought 500 troops, I would have thought that at least 5000 troops were dispatched. Among the six enemy camps, there is also Lu Tang's camp. , at least 2 horses, I really don’t know how General Xu did it.”

Jing Xiang sighed: "I hope that General Xu can get away with his body. If General Xu makes a mistake, I don't know how to explain it to Lord Hou."

Half an hour later, all seven of Lu Tang's camps were on fire, and the flames soared into the sky. Among the three groups of Qin Zongquan's troops, more than 2 people were killed by Xu Huaiyu's 500 troops. , Countless people fled.

At this time, the teams of Qin Xian and Zhang Xun had already assembled and rushed out of the camp. Only 300 of the [-] elites led by Xu Huaiyu were left, and many of them were injured. Almost out.The reason why Xu Huaiyu was able to make such a big commotion was due to Zhentianlei's contribution. Otherwise, they would be exhausted to death just by hacking and killing them.

Xu Huaiyu knew clearly that if he couldn't fight his way out before Zhen Tianlei was exhausted, he would have to confess his strength here.So Xu Huaiyu ordered the remaining 300 people to concentrate their firepower on the direction of Daliang City, hoping to kill a bloody road.

But there are too many enemies. Lu Tang's remnant soldiers plus Qin Xian's and Zhang Yan's two fresh troops, there are more than 4 people. Isn't it a piece of cake to surround this mere 300 people?They can be crushed to death just by using people to suppress them.In particular, Lu Tang was already in a state of insanity. As the commander-in-chief of an army of more than 2 people, he was beaten so hard by 500 people. How could this make him not angry?

Jing Xiang in the city looked at the scene of a large group of torches connected in the distance, and knew that the other two groups of people had arrived, but Xu Huaiyu hadn't rushed out of the encirclement yet, so it seemed that the ominous situation was more than auspicious.But there are only 7000 to [-] people in the city who can fight, even if they send all of them out, they may not be able to rescue Xu Huaiyu, not to mention that it is impossible for him to let all the people in the city leave the city.

Liu Han said in a deep voice: "The humble official is willing to lead 2000 people to meet General Xu, and I hope the Lord will allow it."

Jing Xiang was silent. He knew that although Xu Huaiyu would be very angry if Zhu Wen couldn't be rescued, he couldn't explain to Zhu Wen if there was something wrong with Bianliang.As for what Liu Han said about bringing 2000 people out of the city, it’s even worse. If 2000 people go out, they will undoubtedly die. Besides, Liu Han doesn’t know whether he is capable of Jing Xiang. How can he easily lead Daliang? The defenders out of the city?

Liu Han also knew that even if he took 2000 people out, it would be useless, but seeing General Xu's [-] elites lost like this, he really felt a little uncomfortable.

Generals are mostly emotional and easily impulsive, but people like Jing Xiang are different. They think about long-term plans and can't just focus on the immediate future.So he decided to focus on Daliang City. Whether Xu Huaiyu can rush out depends on his luck.

At this time, Xu Huaiyu and the others had used up all the Thunderbolts, and the dense enemy formation had suffered a lot of casualties under the bombardment of the Thunderbolts, but the enemy's strength was really too many. Now they used crowd tactics to trap Xu Huaiyu and the others, so that Xu Huaiyu This fierce general who is good at fighting doesn't know how to deal with it, so he can only fight hard.

Xu Huaiyu was covered in blood, and the spear in the young Wang Tan's hand was broken. Now it is a spear snatched from the enemy's hands, and he still follows Xu Huaiyu closely.Xu Huaiyu even had some admiration for this young unknown kid, but it was a pity that such a good seedling was about to die in the rebellion.

Xu Huaiyu saw the number of brothers around him getting fewer and fewer, and his heart ached again and again.But he didn't regret it at all. Using a mere 500 troops to destroy seven camps of the enemy army was enough.Before leaving, Xu Huaiyu had told them about the possible situation, and the raiders were already mentally prepared to be made dumplings.

At this moment, Jing Xiang on the city saw a raging fire in Zhang Yan's camp in the distance, and the fire spread rapidly.Almost at the same time, countless flames rose from Qin Xian's camp. The people who were besieging Xu Huaiyu must have discovered the situation at this time. There was a commotion in the formation, and they retreated like a tide, and went back to their camp to fight the fire. .

Xu Huaiyu and Wang Tan took advantage of this opportunity to fight hard, and finally broke through the siege. Looking behind them, there were only a hundred people, and all of them were wounded. Even Xu Huaiyu also had five or six wounds on his body. Wang Tan was still young. Young, this is the first time I have fought such a strenuous battle, and I am so tired that I have almost collapsed.But they didn't dare to stop at all, because Lu Tang, who had suffered a great loss, was still commanding the team to chase after him.

Jing Xiang in the city didn't know why the camps of Qin Xian and Zhang Xun caught fire at the same time, but what is certain is that other troops from his side must have arrived.Jing Xiang hurriedly asked Liu Han to lead 2000 troops out of the city, first to welcome Xu Huaiyu's troops into Daliang, and to wait and see whether he wanted to go out of the city to counterattack.

Jing Xiang guessed right, the flames in the two places were caused by Li Si'an and Zhang Qianyu and the green forest characters from various cottages.A large number of Zhang Xun and Qin Xian's troops went to besiege Xu Huaiyu, and the camp guards were old, weak, sick and disabled, and they were totally vulnerable.Zhang Qianyu and Li Si'an quickly broke through two enemy camps. This time they brought all the heroes from the forest. Killing and arson is their specialty.

Neither Zhang Qianyu nor Li Si'an brought 1000 people, most of them were newly recruited gangsters, who had just joined the army these days and were worried that they would not be able to make meritorious deeds. Now that the opportunity finally came, how could we not let them all scramble for the first?

Zhang Qianyu and Li Si'an were no better than Xu Huaiyu. They didn't carry many destructive weapons like Thunderbolt, so they mainly harassed them. Facing the enemy's army, they didn't have Xu Huaiyu's recklessness.

Even so, when the armies of Qin Xian and Zhang Xun arrived, they burned three camps each, and the fire was still spreading. Seeing that the enemy had returned to the army, Zhang Qianyu and Li Si'an hurriedly whistled and took the three camps with them. The robbers in the green forest of Wuyue withdrew.These people's ability to escape is top-notch, otherwise how could they have survived until now in the cracks of various people in the imperial court?

Qin Xian and Zhang Xun returned to their camp and saw the raging fire. They were convinced of the enemy's tricks, and they didn't care about chasing the enemy. They hurriedly ordered people to put out the fire, because the food was still in the camp. If it is light, they can only return without success.What's more, the food in Lu Tang's camp had been burned, so they paid more attention to the importance of food.

But they still don't know the news that makes them even more headache. Now Zhang Cunjing's 5000 troops have joined up with Zhang Qianyu and Li Si'an who just retreated. Zhang Cunjing looked at the fire in the enemy camp and said with a smile: "You two can do it, two thousand The bandits in the green forest made the enemy camp like this, you really deserve it."

Zhang Qianyu didn't dare to hide anything, and hurriedly said: "Li Si'an and I only burned three camps each, and there were not many people in the camps when we went, and the camp guards were old and weak, and when we arrived, Lu Tang's The seven company battalions are already in flames, Qin Xian and Zhang Yan's troops rushed to the rescue."

Zhang Cunjing wondered: "Who is so generous? Could it be that Lord Hou has arrived? It shouldn't be. It stands to reason that I came from Songzhou faster than he came from Bozhou."

Now Zhu Wen's title is Marquis of Peijun, so all the generals under his command call him Marquis.

Zhang Cunjing didn't have the leisure to guess who it was, and hurriedly said: "Don't be idle, everyone, and fight the enemy again when they are in a hurry. We have 7000 troops anyway, and we can't fight head-on. In this case Sneak attack is the best."

Zhang Cunjing is like this, he does what he says, and he never procrastinates.They rushed over with 7000 people, and killed thousands of enemies after a while. They didn't like fighting, and they left after a while.Qin Xian and Zhang Yan have no temper at all. Zhang Cunjing, Zhang Qianyu, and Li Si'an are all masters in field battles. Who are the peasants in Huaixi's opponents?

But Qin Xian and the others were still behind, and at this time Zhu Wen, Li Tangbin, Pang Shigu, two generals, and [-] all-in-one cavalry had also arrived to join Zhang Cunjing's men and horses.Then there was another round of fighting, killing Qin Xian and Zhang Yan's men so hard that they couldn't find them all.

Jingxiang on the city saw the movement here from a distance, knew that the reinforcements had arrived, and hurriedly opened the city gate. Xu Huaiyu and Liu Han, who had rested for more than an hour, also came out of the city with 3000 troops from the city to have fun. It made Qin Xian and the others unbearable.It is difficult to care about the beginning and the end, and it is difficult to be undefeated.

At this time, the sky was already dark, and there was no need to fight this battle. The food and grass of Qin Zongquan's three-way army had been burned, and more than half of the men and horses had been lost. They could only withdraw in a desperate manner before dawn.

Zhu Wen ordered the soldiers to clean up the battlefield, and asked about the battle. After listening to Jing Xiang and Xu Huaiyu's report, he patted Xu Huaiyu's shoulder with a smile, and said, "My boy, I really have you, so I'm not an example!"
