The visitor was the two thousand soldiers led by Zhang Huan, the governor of Cizhou. When he heard the soldiers sent by Li Yanqing to ask for help, he was scared to death when someone was going to attack the Censor's Supervisor halfway. If the Censor's Supervisor was killed in Cizhou, he would be the biggest responsible person. Dismissal or dismissal or be second, it is more likely that he would be imprisoned and punished.

Zhang Huan led the two thousand wings troops to the north without hesitation and finally rushed to the mountain temple before dawn, but Zhang Huan was not in a hurry to order an attack. He saw that the bandits did not capture the mountain temple. Since the Censor and the Supervisor were still safe, he needed to give the soldiers a little rest. The two thousand troops rushed all night and were really exhausted.

The variables came from more than 600 bandits led by Lu Fang. When Lu Fang suspended the attack on Aigang, many injured soldiers who claimed to have broken legs and hands miraculously recovered their health. Lu Fang was very cruel to the wounded soldiers. They had no livestock and were going to throw them away. All they could do was death.

Two months ago, Lu Fang led hundreds of troops to defeat the three thousand Cizhou Township soldiers who entered the mountains to suppress bandits. He looked down on the local enemy troops from the bottom of his bones, lacked training, was vulnerable, especially without the leadership of the war-going general. Lu Fang knew in his heart that as long as he killed the opponent's chief general, the army would collapse quickly.

Since he could not conquer the hills, he did not want to go back empty-handed. If he wanted to establish a lofty prestige among the various rioters in Taihang Mountains, he had to fight with the officers and soldiers at all costs. This was a very rare opportunity. Even if he was unfortunately defeated, his reputation would be exalted.

"Brothers, the enemy is tired of running, the time is right in front of me, attack me!" Lu Fang shouted.

"Kill!"

More than 600 bandits waved their spears and rushed to the two thousand soldiers from miles away.

Zhang Huan's face was pale. He originally wanted to scare the bandits away and end the rescue, but he didn't expect that the other party would actually fight fiercely with him. He felt timid in his heart and turned around and looked at the army commander Liu Chang.

Liu Chang was the commander of the Xiang Army in Cizhou and was affiliated with the Privy Council. Their responsibilities were to maintain local security, including suppressing bandits and serving as support troops for the imperial guards during the war. He mainly did some clumsy things, such as building cities, making weapons, building roads and bridges, transporting grain and reclamation of wasteland, and guards of officials, welcoming and seeing off, etc.

The Xiang army has low treatment, poor equipment, insufficient training for a long time, and is even worse than the township soldiers during combat. At least the township soldiers have the determination to defend their homes, so most of the Xiang army is vulnerable, which is why Lu Fang dared to challenge them directly.

Liu Chang also showed a hint of uneasiness in his eyes, but the bandits' rampant provocation also made him very angry. He yelled, "Arrow ready!"

Five hundred archers walked forward quickly and raised their longbows. The wing army was equipped with bows and arrows, not military crossbows. Although Wang Gui's subordinates were equipped with 100 military crossbows, he had tried every means to get it. It was not a standard configuration. Only the imperial guards would generally be equipped with military crossbows and divine arm crossbows.

The two thousand wings quickly formed the formation. Their formation was very simple, it was the most basic square formation. Without the main formation and left and right wings, it would take a long time of training and running-in to exert the power of the two wings. Otherwise, even if it was placed, it would be just a sign.

In just a moment, six hundred bandits rushed into a hundred steps, and Liu Chang shouted, "Shoot the arrow!"

Five hundred arrows were shot out at the same time, and densely shot at the bandits shouting and killing. If the opponent was wearing a cloth robes, the lethality of these five hundred arrows would be quite powerful. Unfortunately, the other party was wearing double leather armor. They all lay on the ground, and the arrows fell down and hit the hard leather armor and helmets. Although dozens of soldiers' leather armor were shot through, causing certain casualties, most of the bandits were safe and sound. When the arrows disappeared, they got up and continued to run forward.

Liu Chang's face changed drastically. He knew that he might suffer a great loss today, so he hurriedly told his left and right orders: "Escort the envoy to retreat and stay away from the battlefield!"

More than a dozen personal guards turned their horses and escorted Zhang Huan, who was frustrated, to evacuate south.

Even shooting two rounds of arrows did not work. The bandits were only thirty steps away from the wing army and rushed in like a craze. It was meaningless to shoot arrows. Liu Chang shouted: "Bowling soldiers retreat, spear soldiers pressed on!"

Five hundred archers retreated one after another, and one thousand five hundred spear soldiers rushed forward with a fierce attack. The two armies collided with each other, screaming sounded, and the two armies fought on the official road and the snow fields on both sides.

Li Yanqing led two hundred soldiers down the mountain early, but did not rush to join the battle, but hid in the woods a mile away. In fact, Li Yanqing did not think about fighting. He was just worried that Lu Fang would lead the rioters to retreat to Taihang Mountain, so he led two hundred soldiers down the mountain to cut off the bandits' retreat northwards.

However, the development of the situation was beyond Li Yanqing's expectations. Lu Fang actually led the bandits and the two thousand wing troops who came to support him.

"Old Li, it seems wrong! The officers and soldiers seem to be unable to withstand it."

Wang Gui looked at the officers and soldiers who were killed one mile away and retreated step by step. The formation of officers and soldiers was completely messed up and they kept retreating, but the morale of the bandits was high and they became more and more courageous as they fought.

Li Yanqing didn't expect that the combat effectiveness of the Xiang army would be so weak. He cursed in his heart and said to Wang Gui and Yue Fei: "Let's kill us and kill the enemy's chief general!"

"Brothers, kill with me!"

Wang Gui waved his big sword and took the lead in killing the bandits behind him. The soldiers ran with him. Yue Fei followed him with his gun, and he stared at the enemy's chief general Lu Fang.

Li Yanqing ordered the ten cavalry behind him, "Come with me!"

He held two pots of arrows on the back of the Fengying Bow in his hand and led ten cavalrymen to circle around. He would not participate in the battle directly, and would shoot arrows on the periphery to support him, or hunt down lonely bandits.

Two hundred soldiers suddenly came from behind like a sharp dagger, catching the bandits who had already gained the upper hand off guard. They had to divide their troops to fight, which immediately set the bandits' offensive moment down. The officers and soldiers who were about to collapse got an extremely precious breathing opportunity at the critical moment.

Liu Chang seized this opportunity and quickly led his army to withstand several weak spots that were about to be defeated. It was like a house that was about to collapse suddenly received support from a large wooden pillar and was immediately stabilized.

Lu Fang was furious and ordered Luo Jin to say, "Kill all these bastards who attacked them!"

Luo Jin led 200 soldiers to resist the sneak attack on the army behind him, but he met Wang Gui head-on, and saw a flash of cold light and a big knife slashing towards him, "Eat your grandpa Gui's sword."

The sword was as fast as lightning, and the sword was extremely sharp. Luo Jin could no longer avoid it. He had to bite the bullet and raise the knife to block it. He heard a loud "Damn!" that immediately shocked his arm and his spear flew out of his hand.

Luo Jin was only in the third seat at the beginning, and his martial arts were weaker than Tao Jun and Jia Jin. Tao Jun died under Wang Gui's sword in Huangxian County, Daming Prefecture. How could Luo Jin's martial arts be Wang Gui's opponent? With just one meeting, his spear was chopped away by a big knife.

Luo Jin screamed, spit out a mouthful of blood, turned the horse's head and fled. Wang Gui sneered, tied the reins with one hand, waved the knife with his right hand to slash the enemy's neck, the knife was faster, and with a click, a human head flew up, and the war horse ran for more than ten steps. The headless corpse on the horse fell to the ground. Wang Gui ordered: "Seave the horse to me!"

He raised the head with the tip of the knife and shouted around, "Your village leader is dead, don't you surrender yet?"

Lu Fang was so angry that his eyes were bleeding. He roared and was about to rush over, but was stopped by a young man, "Don't leave, take my Yue Fei with a shot!"

After saying that, Yue Fei stabbed him with a shot. The shot seemed average, but it had reached the level of returning to nature. It was fast and fierce, blocking all the dodging positions of Lu Fang.

Lu Fang's martial arts can rank at least in the top fifteen in Liangshan. He is a person who knows the goods. The other party's shot surprised him. Why is this young man so powerful?

After all, he was very skilled in martial arts and was particularly experienced. He raised his long halberd and blocked it with a backhand. With a sound, he accurately swung Yue Fei's shot. Yue Fei shouted loudly, like a storm and slammed more than ten guns in a row. Lu Fang blocked it one by one, and the two fought fiercely.

At this time, the situation on the battlefield was completely rebellious. Li Yanqing fired cold arrows on the periphery, shooting the enemy leader in a special way. His arrows were shot without any slightest, and five bandit leaders were shot in a row, all of which were shot through the head and killed. The offensive of the bandits gradually disappeared. Liu Chang took the opportunity to lead the wing army to counterattack. The bandits were killed and retreated step by step, their morale was declining, and their morale dropped sharply.

Li Yanqing was not in a hurry to shoot. He was immediately away from a hundred steps, holding a bow and arrow in his hand and staring at the fierce battle between Yue Fei and Lu Fang. If Yue Fei was in danger, he would take action at any time.

Lu Fang and Yue Fei fought fiercely for nearly twenty rounds, but Lu Fang started to lose his support, left and right, and the defeated prime minister had already appeared.

Yue Fei's shooting skills were taught by Zhou Tong, and later he received careful guidance from the Golden Spear General Xu Ning. In addition, he practiced extremely hard. Although he dared not say that he was one of the best in the world, he could still be among the top ten in the world. The only thing he lacked was practical experience, otherwise Lu Fang would not be able to resist ten rounds.

At this time, the bandits finally couldn't hold on and began to defeat. Lu Fang fled with a fake shot, and then fled. Li Yanqing pulled out a bow and arrow a hundred steps away and aimed at the back of Lu Fang. At this moment, Yue Fei, who was chasing Lu Fang, appeared in Li Yanqing's sight, just blocking Lu Fang.

Li Yanqing had to tilt his hand slightly and shoot an arrow. The arrow flew past the outside of Yue Fei's right arm, and hit Lu Fang's right shoulder. Lu Fang shouted, his body shook violently, and he hugged the horse's neck and ran away without any chance.

Yue Fei's war horse was a little lower and chased him two miles away. In the end, Lu Fang escaped. He had to return to the battlefield regretfully.

The Xiang army chased after him, killing the bandits everywhere. Even if the bandits kneeled down and begged for mercy, it was useless. They were killed by the Xiang army soldiers with one knife. In the end, only more than ten people escaped from the woods by chance.
