Shen Jizhou stood on a high slope and was frightened by the sudden reinforcements from Xiao Yuanche. He glanced to the left. Under the leadership of Su Ling, the regretful Tianwei rushed left and right and could not stop him at all. He glanced to the right. , the general under the banner of Xiao, led the troops and horses, and then the troops and horses came like a tidal wave, filling the sky.

Shen Jizhou was almost unsteady on his feet, his energy and blood were rising, and he was dizzy. He pressed his hands hard on the large bluestone about half a man's height beside him, hunched over, and managed to steady himself.

He knew that the advantage he had originally gained was gone. The addition of these two groups of troops instantly erased the numerical gap between himself and Xiao Yuanche.

What's even worse is that his troops are already at the end of their strength, and whether it's Su Ling or the troops led by Xiao Jianshu, they are all powerful new forces.

"Su Ling...Wang Tianwei...What can I do? What can I do!...Also, it doesn't mean that the Xiao eldest son will definitely be tripped when he goes to Longtai to ask for help." There, how could it happen now that... God won't help me sink Jizhou! Everyone, what should we do now, what should we do?"

Guo Tu on the side also turned pale with fright. Hearing this, he shouted loudly without thinking: "My lord, my lord, the situation is not favorable for our army. We should retreat to the camp to avoid the danger for the time being and think about it in the long term! My lord, withdraw." !”

This statement was exactly what he wanted. In fact, Shen Jizhou had already retreated when he saw Su Ling appearing with the elites of the Heavenly Guard. But at this time, he was still thinking about his own face. The dignified coach, foreword If you retreat, won't you lose face?

But Guo Tu said, that’s different. I should listen to your advice! Guo Tu, you are really my timely help!

Shen Jizhou wished he could hold Guo Tu in his arms, nodding his head repeatedly and saying: "What Guo Tu said is absolutely true! It's absolutely true!...Commander, please quickly give the order to retreat..."

At this moment, an angry shout came: "Anyone who dares to retreat will be immediately beheaded! Guo Tu, you are a sycophant, you have the intention to harm the lord!"

"Qiang——"

There was a sharp sword cry, and Guo Tu felt a cold light flash before his eyes, and a sharp long sword was pressed against his choked throat.

Guo Tu was so frightened that he almost shit his pants and waved his hands repeatedly, as if he was mourning for his heir.

"At this time of life and death, if you threaten to retreat and sway the lord's mind again, believe it or not, I will kill you first!"

Another sharp shout.

Guo Tu braved his courage and raised his head slightly to look in front of him, only to see that it was Shen Zhengnan who was holding an extremely sharp long sword against his choked throat, with a cold light flashing in his eyes, full of killing intent.

"You...Master Shen, what do you mean...you are too presumptuous. The master is still here, do you want to kill me in front of him? Do you want to rebel?" "Guo Tu looked furious and shouted with a guilty conscience, his voice was trembling.

Shen Zhengnan snorted coldly and said: "Killing you is like slaughtering a pig or a dog! Why do you need to ask the lord for instructions!"

"Zhengnan... If you have something to say, what do you mean?" Shen Jizhou spoke urgently, his voice trembling.

Shen Zhengnan still put the long sword in his hand against Guo Tu's choked throat, but his expression was respectful, and he said to Shen Jizhou: "My lord, now that the Qiwei nest has been lost, our army only has three days of rations at most. Where can we get it? Think about it in the long run." Ah! Furthermore, if our army retreats and Xiao Yuanche's soldiers from the old Zhang city, Su Ling's Hantian Guards, and Xiao Jianshu's soldiers gather together, our army will fight with them again. If you want to win, you have to do everything possible!"

When Shen Jizhou heard this, he hissed coldly, lowered his head and was speechless.

"Furthermore, our army has paid such a heavy price to suppress Xiao Yuanche and is about to attack the old Zhang city. Why not take advantage of the fact that his three armies have not gathered together, their orders are blocked, and their footing is not stable? Why should we waste all our efforts and retreat when we conquer Jiuzhang in one go, my lord..."

Shen Zhengnan spoke sincerely, almost in a pleading tone.

But Shen Jizhou thought for a while, then shook his head vigorously and waved his hands, saying in a trembling voice: "Su Ling is powerful, Xiao Thief is powerful, if we don't retreat earlier, I'm afraid we won't even have the chance to retreat... We can only fight until this point today, we can’t fight anymore, we can’t fight anymore!”

Hearing this, Shen Zhengnan suddenly felt like his whole body was on fire. He withdrew the long sword in his hand, not caring about Guo Tu. He suddenly knelt down in front of Shen Jizhou, touched his head to the ground, and spoke every word with tears in his eyes. : "My lord, my lord cannot retreat! If you retreat, everything will be over! Let's work together to fight it out! What is the combat strength of the Bacheng defenders? The Hantian Guards, who have less than a thousand soldiers, can stop our army's Halberd Guards. ?My Lord! If we fight, we still have a chance to survive. If we retreat, we will never have such a good opportunity again, Lord!"

If in normal times, Shen Jizhou might have listened to Shen Zhengnan's words after careful consideration, but at this time, he was already distracted by the situation in front of him. He just wanted to avoid the edge for a while, how could he listen to it.

In addition, Guo Tu shouted from the side: "My lord, you must not listen to Shen Zhengnan's words. At the beginning, our army was outnumbered by hundreds of thousands to tens of thousands, but we still couldn't win. Now Xiao Yuanche's most elite troops It's coming, how can our army win? We must quickly avoid its sharp edge, return to camp to reorganize, and then try to defeat the enemy!"

Shen Zhengnan's liver and gallbladder were split apart. He suddenly waved his long sword, the cold light flashed, and said sternly: "I will kill you, the treacherous person, first, and then I will persuade the lord!"

Saying that, he raised his sword to stab Guo Tu.

Guo Tu yelled, not caring about losing his etiquette or not. He jumped up and hid behind Shen Jizhou like a big rat. He shouted at the top of his voice: "Lord, save me! Shen Zhengnan is crazy. He wants to kill me, my lord!"

Shen Jizhou became even more dizzy at this time. He felt his eyes darkening and his chest feeling tight. He forced himself to support himself and shouted sternly: "Shen Zhengnan! How presumptuous! If you are so rude again, don't blame me for not remembering our past feelings." !”

Shen Zhengnan really had no choice but to crush his teeth, "Alas!" He sighed, and with a strong effort, the long sword in his hand flashed and dug straight into the big bluestone beside him, making a clanging sound.

"No more words. I have made up my mind. I will immediately retreat back to the camp. Anyone who blocks his path will be killed immediately!" Shen Jizhou frowned and shouted coldly.

"Here! My lord is wise! Herald, quickly send the order to retreat! Retreat the troops!"

Guo Tu was the first to jump up and shouted at the top of his lungs.

After a gap, he actually provoked Shen Zhengnan with his eyes, looking like a villain who was defeated.

"Guo Tu, if today passes, Shen will repay you a hundred times as much!" Shen Zhengnan said in a cold voice.

Looking at the battlefield again, due to Su Ling and Xiao Jianshu's comprehensive counterattack, Xiao Yuanche's old Zhang troops were completely liberated. Xiao Yuanche's heroic spirit suddenly rose at this time. He waved his hand and shouted loudly: "The whole army attacks, Press forward, there is no need to defend any soldiers, kill them all for me!"

“Here—!”

The mountains roared and the tsunami roared, and morale was high.

Let's say that Zhang Buyi and Zang Xuanba, their lieutenants and Shen Jizhou's more than 100,000 soldiers were gritting their teeth and persisting, fighting bloody battles and refusing to retreat, when they suddenly saw the commander's commanding officer's flag waving like flying in the distance on the high slope.

From the flag language, both of them understood that this meant retreating.

Zhang Chuyi and Zang Xuanba almost doubted their own eyes.

"Brother Zang Xian, we are waiting for a bloody battle. Now the situation is tense. We still don't know who will win. How can the lord ask us to withdraw our troops!"

Zhang Chuyi's voice was obviously full of anger.

Zang Xuanba also shook his head repeatedly and gritted his teeth and said: "Oh, brother Wu Yi, the result of our hard work is like this! Is this mediocre master really worthy of us risking our lives so much?"

As he spoke, he tried his best to kill the two enemy soldiers in front of him, with a look of anger on his face.

Zhang Chunyi's expression changed continuously, and he said in a trembling voice: "What are you talking about, my dear brother? No matter how great the general is, he is still my lord. How can a general doubt your lord's decision? Don't mention this again, I just treat it as

You are so angry that you don't hesitate to speak!"

Zang Xuanba shook his head and sighed, with a look of helplessness on his face, and could only ask: "Brother Ban Yi, do we really withdraw? If we withdraw, we will have to start all over again to attack again. Now that Xiao Yuanche has reinforcements, once he has three

When people and horses gather together, how can we still..."

Zhang Duyi looked up to the sky and sighed, with a look of reluctance on his face: "The Lord's orders are overwhelming, no matter how you disobey them, we have to retreat even if we don't want to, that's all, retreat! When we go back to rest, eat and drink, we brothers will fight with them again

!”

The two of them had made a decision, and both shouted to the men and horses they were leading: "The Lord has ordered us to withdraw our troops. The front team will become the rear team, and the rear team will become the front team. The cavalry battalion and the halberd guards will cut off the rear, and retreat quickly!"

With an order, the army's formation began to change rapidly, and Shen Jizhou's men showed a retreating trend.

Su Ling, Lin Bulang and Xiao Jianshu were charging and fighting. Suddenly they saw Shen Jizhou's men and horses starting to retreat very quickly. The fighting spirit in his heart suddenly rose. Su Ling laughed loudly and said: "This old boy Shen Jizhou is scared and wants to withdraw his troops."

, it’s not that easy, regret the Tianwei and follow me to kill, don’t let them get away easily!”

"Kill--!"

Su Ling took the lead, followed by Lin Bulang and the Eight Hundred Cavalry Heavenly Guards who immediately urged their horses forward.

Not to be outdone, Xiao Jianshu ordered an immediate pursuit.

After rushing and retreating, Shen Jizhou's army was defeated like a mountain and was completely defeated. They couldn't care about their formation. Unfortunately, the guards and horses were so fast. Those enemy soldiers wished that their parents would give them two extra legs and fled in all directions.

Shen Jizhou stood at a high place, feeling as if he had fallen into an ice cave. He sighed and said: "Let's go back to camp quickly and let's worry about it again!"

Guo Tu did not forget to show his courtesy at this time, and hurriedly came over to help him and said: "My lord is not feeling well, Tu is willing to protect you!"

Shen Jizhou put his hand on his and then hurriedly walked towards his camp.

Just after taking two steps, I looked back and saw that where I was, there was a man still kneeling upright, looking at the battlefield with a face full of grief, anger and determination.

Exactly, Shen Zhengnan.

Shen Jizhou stopped and shouted in confusion: "Zhengnan, why don't you come back to camp with me quickly?"

Shen Zhengnan was speechless for a while, then suddenly kowtowed deeply in the direction of Shen Jizhou.

He said every word with determination on his face: "My lord, I forgive you that Shen Zhengnan can no longer be with you! My lord, leave quickly. Zhengnan is willing to die on the battlefield to protect my lord and return to the camp safely!"

After saying that, he stood up, raised his sword to the sky, and shouted: "Jun Zhengnan's subordinates obey the order!"

"Here!——"

Seeing the general's behavior, more than a thousand of his soldiers were deeply affected. They all had a look of determination on their faces, fire in their eyes, and they all agreed!

"Protect your lord, strengthen our Bohai Sea, and fight to the death without retreating, even if you die, there will be no life!"

"Protect your lord, strengthen our Bohai Sea, and fight to the death without retreating, even if you die, there will be no life!"

............

Do this again and again, tragic and decisive.

"Kill--!"

Shen Zhengnan held the sword in his hand, one man with one sword, and flew into the battlefield. The more than a thousand soldiers behind him also rushed in without any hesitation.

When Shen Jizhou saw this, he stamped his feet anxiously, with tears in his eyes, and cried sadly: "Zhengnan! Zhengnan! Why are you suffering! Why don't you go back with me! Why!"

As he said that, he wanted to go back at all costs.

How could Guo Tu let him go back? He grabbed his sleeve and loudly dissuaded him: "My lord, my lord, you can't go back. Only if your lord returns to the camp safe and sound can you live up to the heroism of Zhengnan. Lord! Don't do it." No delay, Xiao Thief's soldiers have already rushed over!"

Shen Jizhou looked up in shock, and saw a cavalryman on the left rushing toward him at great speed. Someone already shouted: "Don't get away from Shen Jizhou! Charge!"

Shen Jizhou was immediately frightened, his face turned pale, and he was confused. He was held up by Guo Tu and could not move at all.

Seeing this cavalry rushing forward, two generals were killed on each side of the diagonal thrust. Zhang Wuyi on the left and Zang Xuanba on the right shouted: "My lord, don't panic, we will come to rescue you!"

Look at the two generals again, waving their hooves across the sails, clapping their horses and wielding their swords, leading the soldiers behind them to kill the generals.

Like a tiger entering a pack of wolves, kill the cavalry and scatter them.

Zhang Chunyi and Zang Xuanba rode their horses to Shen Jizhou. Zhang Chuyi shouted: "My lord, ride with me quickly. I will protect my lord back in the end!"

Only then did Shen Jizhou get on Zhang Wuyi's horse with the help of Guo Tu and the guards around him. Zhang Wuyi swung his sword and rushed towards the camp. He turned around and shouted: "Brother Xuanba is cut off! I will protect the lord and leave first!"
