The fire spread in the distance, and there was a hell in front of him. Li Yan stood on a high place, his expression didn't change much, but he felt like vomiting in his heart. He kept suppressing it because he didn't want to be looked down upon.
He knew that after today's battle, he would never be able to go back to the past. The former Li Xin was completely dead, and it was no longer as simple as changing his name. What his name was no longer important, what was important was that he had already embarked on this journey.
A boat. I thought I hated this boat, but when I actually got on the boat, I realized that it didn't seem so unbearable. At least Li Zicheng was very different from other bandits.
The wind was howling, with a hint of burning smell. In the smoke, the officers and soldiers had already collapsed, and the remaining resistance was in vain. Farther away, under the vast night, some people were running away in despair. As long as they stepped into the King Kong
Taishan may be safe.
A burst of excited roars sounded from the side and the front. A strong man held an iron rod and laughed: "Where to run, sons. Grandpa has been waiting for you for a long time. Brothers, kill these sons of bitches."
..."
Is there an ambush? Everyone was jealous, but in order to escape for their lives, they had no choice but to fight tooth and nail first. In despair, some of the remnants of the soldiers fought like madmen, saying, "You son of a bitch, if you want to kill me, I'll bite you to death first!"
"A soldier rushed towards the strong man with red eyes. When the strong man saw those beast-like eyes, his heart trembled and he quickly responded carefully.
A sudden encounter unfolded on the east side of Liulinqiu. At this time, Nangong Sen had already woken up. He had no intention of blaming the soldiers. At this moment, he gave up the idea of committing suicide and only wanted to bring more soldiers.
The people fled to Jingangtai Mountain. He struggled to stand up, took his sword from the hands of the soldiers, and took a few steps forward with a cold face. "Don't be stunned. I will settle the previous accounts with you later. Now it is all over."
Follow me to kill the thieves, we must rush through quickly, otherwise we won't have much hope when a large number of thieves rush forward."
Several soldiers smiled bitterly. In fact, there was not much hope at the moment. Others did not know, but they knew that the so-called reinforcements were very unreliable. They had no idea whether the other party would come or when they would come.
Nangong Sen quickly gathered his men to break out of the encirclement, but sometimes he was really afraid of what would happen. After fighting for a while, a band of bandit soldiers rushed from behind, which showed that the main force of the bandits must be very close. Nangong Sen looked up to the sky and sighed, looking sad and angry.
"Heaven is going to kill me!"
Perhaps because of this long sigh, someone noticed Nangong Sen. This man was tall and tall, wearing soft armor, and holding a heavy sword in his hand. With just one glance, it was obvious that the sword was heavy. He was young and not big, about
He was in his twenties, but his eyes were bright and scary. Separating the man in front of him, the young man waved his sword and laughed loudly: "Nangong Sen, you can't leave today, please stay with me."
Nangong Sen's eyes were cold, and he refused to lower his head. He swung his sword at the young man and slashed at him. Both sides of the sword were powerful and heavy. With a sound, a string of sparks were left behind. Nangong Sen took half a step back, but the young man did not.
He did not retreat but advanced, with an excited look on his face. So much strength and such a heavy knife. Nangong Sen frowned and pointed at the young man, "Who are you? You are quite capable. Why do you have to rebel and cause rebellion?"
"Hey, it doesn't matter if I tell you, my boss, Liu Zongmin, is now following General Li as the leader of a small team. I have no choice but to borrow the credit from you." Young Liu Zongmin's face changed, and he smiled sarcastically.
He stood up and said, "As for the reason for the rebellion, don't you know clearly? Who wouldn't want to live a peaceful life if they didn't have food and drink? I came to Henan to join my relatives and wanted to be a little blacksmith, but I still suffered from you dog officials.
,Why don’t you rebel against his mother..."
When he said this, Liu Zongmin's eyes shot out with deep hatred. In fact, what he told was the truth. Liu Zongmin had never thought about rebellion. Even when the natural disaster in Shaanxi Province caused the death of his parents and no food, he had no such thoughts. Several times
After many twists and turns, he came to Henan Prefecture to live with relatives and learn to forge. But one day, a boy from a rich family passed by the blacksmith shop. From then on, the blacksmith shop never had peace again.
On the day when the blacksmith master passed away, Liu Zongmin saw clearly the world. In this world, good people do not live long, and disasters live for thousands of years. In this world, the law of the jungle preys on the strong, bullying the weak and fearing the strong. The court is unreliable and has long been decayed, so if you want justice, you can only
On his own. That night, he burned down the blacksmith shop and only took away the big knife that belonged to him. On the same night, he broke into a wealthy businessman, killed the second-generation ancestor who bullied the market, and embarked on the road to escape.
.It was not until the peasant army entered the Central Plains that he found a place to live.
Liu Zongmin has never mentioned the past to others because it would make his heartache if he mentioned it. If he had other choices, Liu Zongmin would never take this path.
Nangong Sen tightened his grip on the knife in his hand and locked his eyes tightly on Liu Zongmin opposite him. In an instant, it seemed as if the sound of fighting around him disappeared, those people disappeared, and only these two people were left in the world. Liu Zongmin's big knife was stuck on the ground,
There was a weird smile on the corner of his mouth. Suddenly, the big knife was raised upwards, and some dust and grass clippings were stirred up. Nangong Sen instinctively blocked it, but Liu Zongmin launched directly like a hunting tiger. Fortunately, Nangong Sen was not easy.
People like this instinctively sense danger, and when they turn their heads, they swing the steel knife upwards.
With a sound, he felt numbness in the tiger's mouth, as if his arm was about to be severed. Teng Tengteng took several steps back before releasing all his strength. Liu Zongmin was not discouraged even after the move failed, and he took a step forward with the knife.
He walked over and shouted loudly: "Get out of my way, this person is mine!"
Those who were still thinking of picking up a bargain were all frightened and shrank back. They looked at the ferocious Liu Zongmin, but no one dared to express any dissatisfaction. Obviously, they had already seen how powerful Liu Zongmin was.
Nangong Sen knew he couldn't hide, so he grinned miserably, "It's a pity, he is also a famous man. If you want to kill me, you have to pay a price." After saying that, Nangong Sen took the lead in attacking, holding both hands in his hand.
The knife was as fast as thunder and fire, and the steel knife swept across it, covering Liu Zongmin in the middle like a pair of big scissors. Liu Zongmin frowned, and instead of retreating, he advanced forward, raised the knife vertically, and shouted loudly, "Break it for me."
.....break......"
With a clang, the two sides collided again. Nangong Sen was stunned to find that his left hand knife had broken and blood was bleeding from the tiger's mouth. Nangong Sen had no time to think too much and could only continue to slash the left hand knife according to the moves. But Liu Zong
Min didn't stop, he raised his sword upwards, and the two of them launched their killing moves almost at the same time.
"Ah..." Nangong Sen let out a scream, raised the big knife, and his right arm was cut off abruptly. Because it was too fast, the arm fell to the ground, still holding the knife tightly in his hand. Blood spurted out.
When he came out, the whole person stepped back.
But Liu Zongmin stopped. He was stunned for a moment and touched his lower abdomen. There was a blood mark left there. Although the wound was very shallow, Liu Zongmin knew very well that he actually lost the confrontation just now. If it weren't for Nangong
The knife in Sen's left hand broke. With this move, his lower abdomen would definitely be cut open, and his internal organs and intestines would flow out. The possibility of survival was slim, but Nangong Sen had to pay for it with an arm.
Trading injuries for kills was so courageous. At this moment, Liu Zongmin learned something more. He was in awe of Nangong Sen's actions. These things may only be used by those who have fought on the battlefield.
"Nangong Sen, you are a man, but...you still have to die." Liu Zongmin clenched the sword again, but Nangong Sen's face was pale. The next step was to wait for death. This didn't kill Liu Zongmin, for God's sake
This was deliberately letting him, Nangong Sen, die.
Liu Zongmin walked quickly towards Nangong Sen, holding the hilt of the knife with both hands and raising it high. As long as he dropped it hard, the head would become a strong stroke of merit. Suddenly, a whine sounded in front of him.
, the flames reached the sky, and a group of men and horses seemed to fall from the sky. It was officers and soldiers, and reinforcements from officers and soldiers were coming. While Liu Zongmin was in a daze, several soldiers tried their best to snatch the crippled Nangong Sen back.
On the east side of the high slope, the rogues were in chaos. The reinforcements led by Yue Zicong finally arrived, and Li Zicheng's main army also arrived. After learning about the tragic situation of the soldiers and horses in the mall, Yue Zicong could not say a word, especially when he saw the unconscious man
After Nangong Sen, he felt even more worried. Without any hesitation, Yue Zicong ordered to turn around and evacuate to Mount Jingangtai. But how could Li Zicheng allow Yue Zicong to evacuate easily? Under Li Zicheng's dispatch, Lu Weiliang had already gone to Mount Jingangtai in advance.
Interspersed, this also resulted in Yue Zicong's troops being cut off in the middle. Because many soldiers and horses were unable to retreat to Jingangtai Mountain in time, Lu Weiliang's soldiers and horses could only be driven back first.
The soldiers and horses in Gushi City were locked in a fierce battle, Yue Zicong was heartbroken, but Xu Changlu couldn't help complaining, "I told you not to come, but you just didn't listen. Now our troops are also bitten.
What do you think we should do?"
The soldiers and horses in the mall suffered heavy losses, and Nangong Sen was seriously injured, and he did not know whether he was alive or dead. Yue Zicong was already depressed, and now the army was in a bitter battle.
Working under this second-generation ancestor is like coaxing the ancestors. In the past, it was okay, but now in this situation, Xu Changlu has not yet learned how a general soldier should be, and Yue Zicong really can't stand it anymore. He doesn't know where he got the courage.
, he grabbed Xu Changlu and yelled viciously: "Xu, I've been putting up with you for a long time, have you seen it? The thieves can come at any time. If you still want to live, just be quiet, you know?"
?”
"You..." Xu Changlu was frightened by Yue Zicong's ferocious look. In the past two years, Yue Zicong never spoke to him in a friendly and flattering manner. Like today, not only did his tone be cold and harsh, but he also dared to
This is unique. Xu Changlu's heart trembled. He felt the anger of the other party. He believed that he had made this guy anxious. This guy really dared to throw Xu to the bandits. So, Xu Changlu made a very smart choice.
Shut up.
Letting go of Xu Changlu, Yue Zicong sighed with complicated eyes. He knew that because of this matter, when he returned to Nanzhili, he would not have any good fruits no matter what. Xu Changlu had a good uncle, and he was
The nephew of Fei Yang, the censor of Nanjing, with this kind of relationship, what kind of trouble can he stir up in a small local deputy general? It's not that I didn't think of killing Xu Changlu directly, but with so many eyes watching, this
If the gang of officials in Nanjing find out about this, my whole family will suffer.
Alas, fate is really unfair. He risked his own life and fought hard to reach the position of deputy commander-in-chief. But Xu Changlu, a second-generation ancestor with no knowledge of military affairs, started as a commander-in-chief. What can he do?
The war is still going on. Although the soldiers and horses in Shangcheng and Gushi City have gathered together, both sides have lost all morale. How can they resist the swarming bandits? In just one hour, the casualties are already unacceptable.
.
Yue Zicong tried his best to fight and retreat, but he was not sure at all that he might not be able to safely exit Mount Jingangtai. Looking at this situation, even if he went back, the casualties of various departments would not be small. At this time, on Zhujiao Mountain not far from Mount Jingangtai
, some people are paying close attention to the war here. In the jungle, the sand sculpture was wrapped in thick clothes and sneezed gently. He frowned, obviously making a difficult decision.
The progress of the war in Shangcheng and Gushi City was somewhat unexpected. What happened to Qi Weiyu was not expected, nor was it expected that a young man named Li Yan would suddenly appear and set a fire in Liulinqiu. This one
The fire burned down the morale of the Southern Zhili soldiers and horses, and also brought disaster to the retreat of the Southern Zhili soldiers and horses.
The secret attack before was just to let Li Zicheng's army enter Luzhou Prefecture smoothly and create pressure on the South Zhili Army. But he never thought that the South Zhili Army would suffer such heavy losses. The losses of the South Zhili Army were too heavy, and it was definitely not the governor.
The results the teacher wants to see.
"Commander, what should we do? Should we take action?" Someone asked anxiously. They had to be anxious, because the war would soon spread to Zhujiao Mountain. The rogue bandits were obviously determined to capture Nan this time.
Zhili soldiers and horses were severely damaged.
The sand sculpture patted the soft ground, raised his eyebrows, and said in a loud voice: "Notify, let the brothers prepare, and help them. I will inform the supervisor about this, and if there is any problem, I will bear the responsibility alone."
Sha Diao finally decided to help those Southern Zhili soldiers and horses. In fact, he didn't have much resentment towards these Southern Zhili soldiers and horses. Although they had poor combat effectiveness and had many old soldiers, they were still imperial soldiers and horses after all. Then Nangong Sen and Yue Zi
Cong is also a well-known man, very admirable.
.......
Time passed quickly. Yue Zicong led his troops to fight and retreat, and finally arrived at the junction of Jingangtai Mountain and Zhujiao Mountain. This place is called Luofeng Valley, which is actually a depression.
Due to the terrain, Luofeng Valley has accumulated water all year round. Over time, a shallow mountain river has been formed. The defeated soldiers of Nanzhili did not think much and jumped directly into the river. Most of them successfully passed Luofeng Valley.
However, when Lu Weiliang's soldiers and horses were crossing the river, an accident occurred. Just halfway through, a hail of arrows flew from the side, killing and wounding hundreds of people in an instant.
