"Cuckoo...cuckoo..." The cuckoo's voice rang in the valley. Immediately afterwards, a voice came, "After this bend, let's go to the front to rest for a while and wait for the army to come.
The military advisor is really good at predicting things. The terrain of Qingfeng Valley is complex. Although marching is a bit troublesome, it is also the safest. We will be able to leave the valley in a few hours. This time, we must capture Kangyang City."
"Hahahaha..." Another laugh came, "You and I have been the vanguard for so many years, and it is still most comfortable to fight with Military Advisor Liu. By taking Kangyang, we have made a great contribution, and we will naturally be rewarded when the time comes.
After receiving the reward, I will take my family to live in the city."
The voices got closer and closer, and gradually, a small group of people slowly walked out from the corner. Twelve people...
"Cuckoo...cuckoo..." A man walking in the front put his hand to his mouth, and the sound of a cuckoo sounded from his mouth.
After a while, another echoing voice came from a distance. At this moment, three horse roars suddenly sounded in the valley. Before the twelve men in military uniforms could react, the machetes were thrown.
The necks were wrapped, and in just a moment, their throats were cut.
Immediately, a figure appeared from behind the nearby stone and quickly cleaned up the scene, as if no one had ever passed by.
After about half an hour, the sound of horse hooves was heard again. However, this time there were more people. After the sound of horse hooves, there were more orderly footsteps. Apart from the sound of horse hooves and footsteps, other sounds were again.
No more.
Gradually, a figure came out of the corner. At the front were a few soldiers on horseback. Following a few soldiers were Liu Yinfeng in green clothes and Xia Houyan in military uniform.
Behind him were two men who looked like generals, and then came the Xia soldiers.
The team passed slowly, and for a while, the sound of horse hooves and footsteps could be heard in the Qingfeng Valley.
"Cuckoo...cuckoo..." Two cuckoo sounds suddenly came out. When the soldiers on horseback walking in the front were about to respond, they only heard the sound of "kill..." echoing in the valley.
In the bamboo forests on both sides, from behind the alpinia trees and behind the stones, countless soldiers in armor ran out and rushed towards the Xia army.
A firework exploded in the air, making a sharp sound.
In the military camp, Wang Chong and Wang Yan looked at the direction in which the signal flare was rising, and looked at each other, "The princess expected it well, it is indeed Qingfeng Valley."
Wang Yan nodded, "I will take fifty thousand soldiers to Qingfeng Valley for reinforcements."
Wang Chong held him back, "Wait a minute, the princess said, Xia Jun's military advisor is very cunning. Let's wait for a stick of incense first. If the other two groups do not encounter the enemy, we will go to Qingfeng Valley for reinforcements. If the other two groups
If someone encounters the enemy, it means that Liu Yinfeng has temporarily changed his plan. Qingfeng Valley is probably a false shot, so we must take the lead in reinforcing the other group."
"The princess is still thoughtful." Wang Yan responded quickly.
While the two were talking, they saw the soldiers guarding the door rushing to report, "General... General..."
Both of them were startled, and looked at the soldiers guarding the camp and said, "What's wrong? But they discovered the enemy's situation?" They were a little surprised. The princess had never said that the Xia army could attack the camp directly.
The soldier guarding the camp shook his head and took a few breaths before he regained his composure, "General, there is a man with someone claiming to be Prince Jing who wants to break in."
King Jing? Wang Chong and Wang Yan were startled and looked at each other. What is going on? Wang Chong asked quickly, "Where is it? Take this general to have a look."
"General Wang, there is no need to bother, I have already come in..." A hoarse voice came, with a bit of exhaustion in the voice, but with a very cold tone, which made people unable to help but listen to the voice.
Stand up straight.
Looking in the direction of the sound, he saw a man dressed in black standing not far away, with a face as deep as a knife. Seeing Wang Chong and Wang Yan looking at him, they gathered up their black cloaks and walked over.
In front of the two people, he faintly raised his eyes and looked at them, "Where is the princess?"
Wang Chong was shocked. Although he had never met Prince Jing, he secretly confirmed his identity from the majestic aura and cold temperament of the man in front of him. When he heard his question, he hurriedly said, "The princess went to Qingfeng Valley a few days ago.
After checking the terrain, Liu Yinfeng discovered her and took her back. However, the princess concealed her identity, so she is very safe now. Yesterday, she even sent a secret guard to report Xia Jun's movements."
When Prince Jing heard this, he narrowed his eyes, and a dangerous aura flashed in his eyes, "Something happened to the princess, and I didn't even know..."
As soon as he finished speaking, several men in black hurriedly appeared and knelt down in front of Prince Jing, "My lord, please forgive me. It was the princess who asked her subordinates to hide this from the prince..."
Prince Jing glanced at the kneeling secret guards lightly, smiled coldly, and did not speak.
The secret guard kneeling in the middle quickly said, "The princess is safe, just because there are eight ancient formations around the courtyard where Liu Yinfeng imprisoned the princess. The subordinates don't understand the formations, so the princess asked us not to break in, lest we
Her identity was exposed."
"Eight formations?" Prince Jing pondered for a moment, then turned around and walked towards the outside of the camp.
Wang Chong and Wang Yan were a little confused as to why Prince Jing had just arrived and was about to leave. As they were thinking, they heard Prince Jing's voice coming over, "As for the war, all you need to do is follow the instructions of the princess. I will go
Go find the princess."
Along with Prince Jing, there were also secret guards who left the camp. When only Wang Chong, Wang Yan and the guards were left outside the camp, the two of them were still a little unable to recover, "Prince Jing? Is it really Prince Jing?"
Wang Yan nodded excitedly, "Yes, it is indeed Prince Jing. Prince Jing is much younger than expected. Moreover, after traveling thousands of miles to find the princess, the prince and princess really have a deep relationship. If he can one day serve under Prince Jing,
I am willing to die in battle."
"Well." A flash of admiration flashed in Wang Chong's eyes. Just as he was thinking, he suddenly saw a signal flare rising in the distance. The two of them were shocked and quickly calmed down, "We encountered the enemy in Qingfengling. Let's go to Qingfengling quickly.
support."
After saying that, he hurriedly called the deputy general to order the troops, and the two of them walked towards the school grounds together.
In the Qingfeng Valley, Qi Lang stood on a slightly higher stone, looking at the soldiers fighting below. His eyes fell on the man in green shirt opposite, with a flash of disdain in his eyes. The famous military advisor Liu Yinfeng also
But that's it.
Seeing that Xia's soldiers were already at a disadvantage, Liu Yinfeng waved the flag in his hand, and the soldiers next to him took out their golden gongs and struck them four times.
Qi Lang smiled coldly, "If you can't beat me, if you want to run away, you have to see if you can escape." After saying that, he took out his bow and arrow, put on the arrow feathers, pointed it at Liu Yinfeng, fully pulled the bowstring, and then suddenly
Let go.
The arrow was about to hit Liu Yinfeng, but the man in military uniform next to him blocked it with his sword. Qi Lang's expression changed. Xia Houyan, the crown prince of Xia Kingdom, is really good.
However, the Xia army had already begun to retreat step by step.
"Follow me closely and chase! Today I will take back the heads of Xia Houyan and Liu Yinfeng." Qi Lang squinted his eyes and looked at the green figure. He will take Liu Yinfeng away today.
Go back and show that woman that Liu Yinfeng is nothing more than this. Ning Yunshang made him lose face in front of the soldiers during the day and night attack. Today, will he convince those people?
"Father, something is wrong. I think this is Liu Yinfeng's plan to lure the enemy deeper." Qi Yufeng hurriedly found Qi Lang and frowned, "I heard the princess talk about Liu Yinfeng before.
He is a powerful man, but looking at Xia Jun's appearance today, something seems wrong... The princess said that Liu Yinfeng is full of cunning and cunning, and is afraid that when the end comes, he will change his plan, and if anything goes wrong, he will withdraw his troops immediately. "
Qi Lang pondered for a moment just after hearing the first half of the sentence, but when he heard Qi Yufeng mention Yun Shang, his expression gradually turned cold, "Princess, princess, she is just a woman, what does she know! No matter how powerful Liu Yinfeng is,
, it’s just folklore.” After saying that, he ignored Qi Yufeng’s obstruction, jumped off the stone, drew his sword and said loudly, “Chase! Today, we will beat Xia Jun to pieces.”
"Father..." Qi Yufeng frowned, always feeling that something was wrong today, but his father refused to listen to him. He is now just a little captain...
Qi Lang led his soldiers to pursue the retreating Xia army. After about five or six miles, he saw that the Xia army, which originally looked very embarrassed, suddenly stood in a row, their steps and movements were uniform, and their faces were full of confusion.
The panicked look just now was completely gone.
And suddenly two columns of cavalry appeared, standing at the front of the soldiers, arranged like arrows, with the center most prominent and the two wings going back.
The soldiers behind also quickly changed their formations, forming eight queues, with the Chinese army led by Xia Houyan and Liu Yinfeng tightly protecting them in the middle.
The Xia army also appeared on both sides of the Ningguo army, almost tightly surrounding the Ningguo army in the middle.
"Fell into a trap." Wails gradually sounded from the Ningguo army, and Qi Lang looked a little embarrassed. He looked at Xia Houyan and Liu Yinfeng coldly and scolded, "What are you afraid of? Anyone who disturbs the morale of the army will be killed without mercy!"
"
"General, Liu Yinfeng is good at using formations. We must attack immediately before the Xia army has formed their formation and seize the opportunity in one go. Only then can we win. If we wait for them to complete their formation, I'm afraid we will be in danger
Already." The deputy general on the side quickly lowered his voice beside Qi Lang.
Qi Lang nodded, pulled out the sword from his waist, and shouted, "Kill!" The deputy general beside him led the soldiers to kill Xia Jun.
It's just that although the formation has not yet been completed, the cavalry formation at the front took the lead in blocking it. Among the central army, Liu Yinfeng stood on his horse, waved the red flag in his hand, and said loudly, "The cavalry formation swings its wings."
.”
The two wings of the cavalry formation, which were originally relatively far back, came forward and gathered towards the center, surrounding the Ning Army who rushed to the front. The cavalry formation cooperated tacitly, and in just a moment, the leading troops of the Ning Army were wiped out.
Glossy.
Qi Lang's face looked a little ugly. The queue behind the cavalry formation slowly took shape. Qi Lang was anxious and launched another attack. He ordered the archers to step forward and shoot arrows like rain at the Xia army on the opposite side.
"The cavalry withdraws and the shield soldiers come up." Liu Yinfeng waved the flag slowly, and the cavalry quickly took two steps back. The two rows of soldiers behind them stepped forward and raised their shields.
"Their cavalry formation is broken, the archers cover it, charge!" Qi Lang hurriedly pursued them, but the shield soldiers were able to block the attack for a while. When the shield soldiers retreated in embarrassment, the cavalry formation was completed again.
Qi Lang stared at Xia Jun in front of him with his eyes wide open. He felt annoyed in his heart. He never thought that this formation looked simple, but he had no clue. After so long, he had no chance to break into the formation. What's more, he had no chance to break into the formation.
Not to mention killing countless enemies.
"This formation is quite powerful, general. The princess had previously ordered that if anything goes wrong, we should withdraw immediately, so as not to be tripped up by Xia's army." Another general beside him quickly whispered to Qi Lang,
Qi Lang gritted his teeth, his eyes turned red with anger, "Kill! Kill for me no matter the cost!"
Suddenly, there were constant sounds of killing in Qingfeng Valley, and corpses piled up like mountains, like a purgatory on earth.
Among Xia's troops, Liu Yinfeng stood on his horse and looked at the situation in front of him. The corners of his mouth were slightly curved. It seemed that Qi Lang could not break the formation, so he simply sat down.
Xia Houyan cupped his hands towards Liu Yinfeng and said, "The military advisor is really powerful. This Qi Lang is really an extremely conceited person, and he is also confused. Haha, he was actually lured here by our trick to lure the enemy."
, we are unwilling to withdraw our troops even though we cannot break the formation, it seems that we have made a profit this time, if the progress in Liuyunling is good, Kangyang City will be ours."
Liu Yinfeng nodded, but frowned slightly, "There's just something wrong. I heard that there are at least 300,000 troops in the camp outside Kangyang City, but why, the number of soldiers here seems to be no more than ten
Fifty thousand people, where have nearly half of them gone?"
Hearing this, Xia Houyan also frowned, "It's just that according to the spies' report, Qi Lang indeed ordered to concentrate his troops to stop us in Qingfeng Valley..."
At this moment, a "report" sounded, and a soldier holding a token in his hand, galloping across the military formation, reined in his horse in front of Xia Houyan and Liu Yinfeng, and turned over.
He came down, knelt down on one knee and said, "Report to the commander-in-chief and the military advisor. The army in Liuyunling was attacked. The enemy army numbered about 150,000 people. Our army suffered heavy losses."
"There are still enemy troops in Liuyun Ridge?" Liu Yinfeng and Xia Houyan looked at each other and frowned. Liu Yinfeng was silent for a long time before saying, "This doesn't seem like Qi Lang's style. Could it be that some of their troops
Is there anyone who can help me?"
Xia Houyan was silent for a long time before saying, "I heard that Princess Jing of Ning State came to Kangyang and said that she had accepted the imperial edict and was appointed as the supervisor of the army. However, Qi Lang looked down on her as a woman and made things difficult for her. Even in the camp, there was no one in the camp.
How to let her in? When I heard Qi Lang's attitude, I didn't pay much attention to it. Could it be that she is that woman?"
Liu Yinfeng frowned slightly, "I have heard about Princess Jing. I heard that she was Princess Huiguo of Ning Kingdom. She had a good reputation among the people. Prince Jing loved her very much. However, according to reports
The spy said that this Princess Jing is weak and virtuous, and she does not seem to be such a courageous woman. However, she is not a simple person to be favored by Prince Jing."
"It seems that we have been plotted by her. But... this Qi Lang, it seems..." Xia Houyan was silent for a moment before continuing, "I'm afraid it is true that Qi Lang and the princess are not at odds, and Qi Lang is conceited.
I'm used to it, so I'm afraid Qi Lang didn't follow Princess Jing's arrangements."
Liu Yinfeng nodded, secretly placing a heavy mark on the name of Princess Jing in his heart. After this time was over, he would immediately send someone to check on this person. This time, he was negligent.
Just as I was thinking about it, another messenger came to report, "Report! Xia's army had about 50,000 soldiers and horses, taking advantage of the emptiness in the camp, to detour to our army's camp and set fire to our army's food and grass. Fortunately, they were discovered in time, but the loss
Still not small."
Xia Houyan and Liu Yinfeng were shocked again. Liu Yinfeng frowned and made some calculations in his mind, "Oh, I'm afraid that the 50,000 Xia troops who attacked the camp will withdraw from Qingfeng Valley and come with Qi Lang."
A flanking attack from both front and rear. We must fight quickly..."
Xia Houyan had never doubted Liu Yinfeng's judgment, so he responded quickly, pulled out the sword from his waist, pointed to the sky, and said, "Brothers, hit me hard, fight quickly, and those who kill the enemy with merit will be rewarded."
!”
Everyone responded quickly, and the shouts of killing shook the heaven and the earth.
When Qi Lang heard the sound, his expression changed several times. Seeing the heavy casualties of the soldiers in his hands, he knew that his situation was over. He was afraid that he would not be able to break the Xia army's formation anyway, so he gritted his teeth and thought
For the current plan, life-saving was the most important thing, so he quickly shouted, "Evacuate!" Then he turned his horse's head and evacuated backwards.
Liu Yinfeng saw that Qi Lang was retreating steadily, but he did not order a pursuit. He only said, "Don't pursue the enemy if you are poor. Everyone laid an ambush as they did just now and waited for the troops from the Ning Kingdom to attack the camp later. Then they ambush again."
"
When the Xia soldiers heard this, they systematically found a place to ambush.
After waiting for about two hours, I heard the sound of horse hooves. The sound of horse hooves got closer and closer, but stopped at the place where Xia Jun was ambushing. "General, there are many corpses here. It seems that there has just been a big battle.
It's just...it's just...our army is the majority..."
The general who took the lead was none other than Liu Hua. When Liu Hua heard this, he frowned and said, "Could it be that General Qi was defeated and the Xia army pursued him?"
After a pause, a flash of light flashed in his eyes, and he loudly said, "There is an ambush. Order the army to speed up and pass through this place."
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard the sound of armors rushing together, and many Xia troops suddenly appeared from everywhere. Liu Yinfeng stood on a high place, looking at Liu Hua with a smile, "It turns out to be General Liu."
Liu Hua frowned and said, "Don't be reluctant to fight. The whole army will pass at full speed."
After giving the order, Ning's army marched much faster. Xia Houyan smiled and said, "General Liu burned my Xia army's food and grass and still wants to leave? How can there be such a cheap thing? Kill me!"
Liu Hua, however, was calm and unhurried. He drew out his sword to resist the Xia army's attack, and ordered the Ningguo army to leave quickly. (To be continued)
