The Liao army and the Liang army fought to the death, but the Liao army had the upper hand in numbers and besieged the Liang army with several times the number. General Li watched his men fall one by one, and the hatred in his heart became more and more intense.
It's getting thicker.
In the end, more than 5,000 of them were surrounded by the Liao army on a small hill.
"Mr. Yi, you are good at martial arts. Break out with a few favors. Don't die with us here." General Li said to Yi Xiaoyao.
Yi Xiaoyao smiled and said: "General Li, it is my good fortune to have you as my friend. Don't you understand what kind of person I am? It's no use for a dignified man to die on the battlefield! We are shoulder to shoulder."
Call up!" As he said this, he pulled out a sword flower and killed the Liao army that was coming up.
General Li looked at Yi Xiaoyao's back and nodded vigorously. As expected, Yi Xiaoyao was so cheerful that he charged forward with his gun drawn.
Suddenly, there was a sound of rushing and killing, sweeping across the sky and the earth. General Li looked around and saw the word "Nangong" on the handsome sign not far away, and the large black characters on the apricot-yellow flag rustled in the wind.
Great, General Nangong finally arrived. Immediately, the morale of the surrounded Liang army was greatly boosted. The Liao army was attacked from both inside and outside and was immediately defeated.
Nangong Feiran commanded his men to continuously attack the areas easily captured by the Liao army's encirclement. Soon, the Liao army's encirclement was broken, and the Liao army was dispersed by this sudden attack.
After several attacks, both sides retreated. Nangong Feiran knew that even if he and General Li were in the same place, they would not have a numerical advantage, so when the Liao army retreated, he just pretended to give chase and did not die.
Now is not the time to cling to the Liao army. He must wait for the arrival of reinforcements.
The army was stationed on the grassland.
"General, our food and grass will not last until tomorrow night." Ling Feng reported to Nangong Feiran.
If nothing else happens, his reinforcements will arrive at this time tomorrow, but this place is a place where surprises are everywhere. Nangong Feiran thought for a moment and ordered Lingfeng to bring a team of people to receive the backup. He did not want backup
Also trapped in the grassland sea.
"So in the end, how did you get out of the grassland sea?" Yi Xiaoyao asked. He had just lit a fire, and he, Nangong Feiran, Yuchi Pingting, and several other generals gathered around the fire.
Yuchi Pingting told them what they discovered along the way, and everyone realized that Daliao was taking advantage of the Ana family and making them enmity with the people on the grassland.
"What are you afraid of? The people on the grassland are just like this. I saw that Anau Khan today and almost killed him!" General Li said: "If you ask me, turn the whole army over and wipe out it in one fell swoop.
grassland!"
"No." Nangong Feiran said: "I have formed an alliance with His Highness the Second Highness of Ana. Today, it is thanks to him that we can get out of the grassland sea." Nangong Feiran paused and said: "Also, we have an alliance with the people on the grassland.
Hatred can only be resolved, but cannot be sunk deeper." He said and looked at Yuchi Pingting. The method of countering violence with violence can indeed solve temporary problems, but it is definitely not a long-term solution.
"But now those members of the Ana family are being used by the Liao army and are confused, and they will definitely become our enemies." General Li said.
"I have explained everything to His Highness, let's see how many Ana people he can convince..." Nangong Feiran was talking when he saw a soldier running over, sent by General Li to inquire about the news.
"Report to the general, in the great tent, His Highness Yakuzel, the Third Highness, has succeeded to the throne as Khan, and Anau Khan has died."
Dead? Nangong Feiran was shocked. The Second Highness also wanted to be the Great Khan. In this case, there would inevitably be a fierce battle between the Third Highness Yakuzel and the Second Highness Tubietaha. He agreed to Tubietaha.
I would help him, but I didn't expect that this matter would happen so quickly.
Originally, according to his plan, after he had retreated from Daliao's troops, he would then unite with Tuobie Taha to deal with Yakuzel, but now these things are intertwined together, and it seems to be very difficult.
"General, what should we do?" Vice General Zhang asked.
Nangong Feiran thought for a while, and then said calmly: "We will wait and see what happens. If Daliao helps Yakuzel, we will help Tubietaha."
There was a strong wind on the grassland at night. Nangong Feiran walked up to Yuchi Pingting, put his own cloak on Yuchi Pingting's body, and then whispered in her ear: "It's late at night, go get some rest, you're all tired."
It’s been a day.”
Yuchi Pingting looked at Nangong Feiran and said, "Have you noticed that the moon you see on the grassland, in the desert, and in Luoyang City has different feelings."
Nangong Feiran looked up at the round and big moon, then smiled and said in Yuchi Pingting's ear: "That's because I always feel different when I'm around you." After that, he hugged Yuchi.
Pingting, walked towards the tent.
"Others are watching." Yuchi Pingting's face was full of shyness.
"I hug my wife, let them see it if they like." The man's face was full of satisfaction. Yes, fighting in this vast grassland, with his most beloved woman by his side, he no longer felt homesick.
worry.
When Yuchi Pingting woke up, it was already bright. She rubbed her groggy eyes and turned over. A breeze mixed with the fragrance of green grass blew in through the gaps in the tent.
"Are you awake?" Nangong Feiran sat on the bedside and kept watching Yuchi Pingting open her eyes. He remembered that Yuchi Pingting always loved to sleep in, but she had to get up early during the march.
"Well..." Yuchi Pingting still felt a little confused, then curled her lips and said, "I'm hungry..." She called out cooperatively.
Nangong Feiran lightly scratched Yuchi Pingting's nose, then bent down to place a deep kiss on the woman's forehead, and said softly: "I cooked porridge for you, my dear madam, I'm afraid these days
It’s better to make do with it…”
"I know, I know... the situation is special." Yuchi Pingting interrupted him impatiently: "Bring it to me quickly." After saying that, he yawned again and stretched out, deliberately not
Let’s look at Nangong Feiran’s black-lined face…
Does this woman know how to be gentle? Nangong Feiran was extremely depressed. He finally found the anger and wanted to be gentle, but she interrupted him without hesitation...
Seeing Nangong Feiran walking away helplessly, Yuchi Pingting stared at Nangong Feiran's back and smiled secretly. Hehe, she really liked this feeling of bossing him around.
When Yuchi Pingting got dressed and walked out of the tent, the troops were already lined up and waiting for Nangong Feiran's order.
But Nangong Feiran just sat there with his eyes closed, as if waiting for something.
Sure enough, not long after, a man came galloping over on horseback.
"Report to the general, the people of Yakuzele and Tobertaha outside the great tent have started fighting, but the Liao army has not taken any action," the visitor reported.
Nangong Feiran said "hmm" and then said to General Li: "Take a team of people over to help Tubietaha." Just as he was saying this, another person came galloping over on horseback.
"Report to the general that our reinforcements have arrived and will be here soon. However, the food transport team did not accompany the army. According to Vice General Wu, the food transport team set out earlier and should have arrived long ago."
Nangong Feiran secretly screamed in his heart. What he was afraid of was an accident with the food and grass. But it seemed that he was really afraid of whatever happened. An accident with the food and grass did happen.
Nangong Feiran immediately called several lieutenants over and arranged orders for them.
Finally, divided into three groups, General Li led his troops to help Tubie Taha. Vice General Zhang waited for Vice General Wu at the same place. After joining forces, they attacked the Daliao garrison together and vowed to capture Nangong Quanhe and Dongfang Chengjian alive, while he himself
, then he personally led a small team of people to search for food and grass.
After giving the instructions, Nangong Feiran set off.
According to the report from the spies, he led his troops and set off towards the road taken by the grain and forage team.
"What do you think will happen?" Yuchi Pingting asked.
Nangong Feiran shook his head, with a solemn expression. At this time, the people of the Ana family were busy fighting with the two princes, and Daliao's troops should not appear here. He really couldn't think of anyone else.
But with such abundant food and grass, any tribe would fight for it desperately if they saw it.
Not long after, they arrived at Hutiao Ridge. It was a bush. Nangong Feiran had not planned to enter the bush at first, but after seeing a grain and grass truck, he resolutely entered Hutiao Ridge with more than a thousand people behind him.
Jumping over the ridge.
"General, this place is extremely easy to ambush the enemy without being discovered. Do we really want to go this way?" Ling Feng said to Nangong Feiran.
Nangong Feiran looked at the grain and grass cart. Although the grain and grass on the cart had disappeared, he still wanted to come in and take a look. He was also concerned about the safety of his soldiers and of course the whereabouts of the large amount of grain and grass.
Nangong Feiran has been watching the surroundings carefully. This kind of quiet and depressing feeling is usually not good. He knows that he may have stepped into a trap, but he cannot pretend that he has not seen it. If there is a chance, he must save those soldiers. If
Yes, he also has to punish those who dare to disturb Tai Sui.
Suddenly, a huge net fell from above his head. Nangong Feiran hurriedly slapped the horse's belly hard and ran a few steps quickly to avoid the net, but many soldiers were tightly tied by the net.
Nangong Feiran was observing left and right, when he felt a cold arrow coming. He easily knocked the cold arrow away with his sword, but more and more arrows flew towards him. Nangong Feiran waved his long sword to fight off these hidden arrows, while trying his best to attack Yuchi Ping.
Ting comes closer.
Soldiers were constantly shot by arrows around them, and someone in the crowd shouted "Poisonous snake!"
Only then did Nangong Feiran discover that the huge net bag was filled with poisonous snakes. At this time, many soldiers were crawling with poisonous snakes. The bushes were filled with wailing sounds and soldiers rolling all over the ground.
Some people were stabbed in the heart by flying hidden arrows, and some people were bitten by poisonous snakes and died without struggling for a few times. However, the most important thing is that until now, he has not seen who the enemy is hiding in the dark.
.
Nangong Feiran was angry and anxious. After walking hard to Yuchi Pingting's side, he stood tightly in front of Yuchi Pingting, and then tried his best to shoot down the hidden arrows that kept flying.
"Who are they?" Yuchi Pingting and Nangong Feiran were facing each other.
"I don't know, get on your horse. I'll cover you out." Nangong Feiran shouted. This sudden attack was so vicious that no one even saw it, but so many traps were laid. Nangong Feiran was a warrior and died in battle.
There is nothing to be afraid of in the battlefield, but Yuchi Pingting can't do it. He can't let her die, he wants her to live.
The arrows rained more and more fiercely, with no intention of stopping. Yuchi Pingting also said to Nangong Feiran amidst the wailing, "Let's go together!"
Nangong Feiran looked at the direction where the arrows were coming from, and suddenly flew towards a tree with a loud roar. After a few jumps, he grabbed a person from the tree.
With a sound of "Ah", the man was thrown to the ground by Nangong Feiran. He saw that this man was holding a special crossbow, which could shoot thirty arrows at a time. Nangong Feiran stepped on it.
On this man's chest, he asked: "Who are you!"
"Hmph, you slaughter my whole village, and I won't let you go even if I'm a ghost!" The man's face was deformed with anger, and then he took out a dagger from his arms and stabbed Nangong Feiran in the leg. Nangong Feiran pressed it
He kicked the man's arm, and the dagger flew far away with a whoosh.
This man also stood up and rushed towards Nangong Feiran. Nangong Feiran's sword was unsheathed, and this man bumped into Nangong Feiran's sword.
Nangong Feiran drew out his sword, and a mouthful of blood spurted out from the man's mouth, and then he collapsed softly on the ground.
The arrow rain became more and more fierce, and soon, most of his soldiers fell.
Yuchi Pingting pulled Nangong Feiran hard and pushed him onto the horse with the help of her internal strength.
There was another burst of arrows, and Yuchi Pingting had no time to mount her horse. Instead, she grabbed a bow and arrow and stabbed it straight towards Nangong Feiran's horse's butt.
Suddenly, the frightened horse neighed and began to run wildly.
