"Good man." Seeing that the Jiangnan Army was showing signs of reversal, Ximen Junyi, the general in the Jianghuai Army, couldn't help but shout. The adopted sons adopted by Du Fuwei were all upright men. Although Ximen Junyi usually looks calmer and more cautious than Wang Xiongshu and others. But in essence, he is still a warrior who respects the strong. Seeing that Lei Shimeng can turn the tide with just his own strength. Ximen Junyi is the same. I admire you from the bottom of my heart.
But admiration is admiration. Everyone has his own master on the battlefield. Ximen Junyi couldn't just watch Lei Shimeng really lead the Jiangnan Army to turn defeat into victory. Immediately, Ximen Junyi's face sank. He picked up the steel gun in his hand and rode forward. He pointed the steel gun in his hand and shouted: "Children of the Jianghuai Army, attack."
Following Ximen Junyi's order, the soldiers of the Jianghuai Army who had been blocked by the bandits shouted in unison. They picked up their spears and began to charge forward. If we just talk about fierce battles, the Jianghuai Army is indeed better than Not as good as the thief soldiers who have been trained by Zhu Can to the point of being almost crazy. Although such thief soldiers are so crazy that it is suffocating at first, but as time goes by or they encounter a strong enemy, their morale will plummet. What's more terrible is that... The army has no military discipline at all.
The Jianghuai Army is different. Although it is not as good as the Liang Army, Tang Army and other armies that were basically formed based on the Sui Army, from Du Fuwei to Kan Ling to Ximen Junyi, they all attach great importance to military discipline. Training. After being suppressed by the morale of the Jiangnan Army, the bandit soldiers finally showed their shortcomings and began to retreat continuously. But the Jianghuai Army was just the opposite. They were not moved at all, especially in Ximenjun. With Yi's order, the Jianghuai Army's morale was boosted, and they were eager to step forward to fight with the Jiangnan Army.
Immediately afterwards, Ximen Junyi stepped forward and directly approached Lei Shimeng. He shouted loudly: "You dare to fight with me."
"Why don't you dare?" Lei Shimeng knew that Ximen Junyi was a master as soon as he looked at Ximen Junyi's posture. Lei Shimeng was also full of fighting spirit at that moment. He raised the big knife in his hand and slashed at Ximen Junyi. .
In the face of Lei Shimeng's attack, Ximen Junyi was unambiguous. He also faced forward with the steel gun in his hand. The two of them fought with guns and knives. They were killing each other with great joy. Jianghuai's army was even more fierce. They replaced the rebels and managed to stabilize their position. They also fought equally with the Jiangnan Army.
"Hahahaha." At this time, a hearty laugh also rang out, but it was Du Fuwei who was behind the military formation. Du Fuwei was seen looking at the battle situation in front of him, laughing with his hands on his hips. He was also laughing at the same time. He shouted to Zhu Can who was not far away: "King Jialuolou, you, the legendary invincible and invincible Kodakhan bandit soldier, are not that good. In comparison, you are still my son-in-law. They are more powerful."
Zhu Can's face was a little gloomy. He was no longer as happy as before. Although Zhu Can and Du Fuwei were allies, they were united because of interests. Therefore, there was not much sincerity between them. The previous attack on Jiujiang was all due to Zhu Can's strength. So since Zhu Can and Du Fuwei reunited, Zhu Can often showed off his power in front of Du Fuwei. This time Du Fuwei regained a victory, which was also a defeat. Du Fuwei was very happy, but Zhu Can was a little unhappy.
The battle on the battlefield is still going on. The battle between Ximen Junyi and Lei Shimeng has never been decided. However, the battle between the Jianghuai Army and the Jiangnan Army has already changed. In terms of combat effectiveness. It can be said that the Jiangnan Army and the Jianghuai Army are on par. Even the strength of the Jiangnan Army is slightly higher. However, the strength of the Jianghuai Army is far greater than that of the Jiangnan Army. The battle on the battlefield is not a matter of you and me. Every family, the real competition is the lives of the soldiers. Perhaps at the beginning, the Jiangnan Army can withstand the enemy's attack with its bloody spirit. But as time goes by, the numerical disadvantage becomes apparent. Although the Jiangnan Army's soldiers They continued to fight towards the front regardless of their safety, but they still couldn't control the front line slowly moving back. In the end, even the archers were sent in, but there was still no way to resist. More than an hour passed. In the city There were less than 500 Jiangnan Army soldiers left outside. Lei Shimeng was forced to retreat with the soldiers at the gate of the city. If he took one step back, he would be killed by the enemy and enter the city.
"Thunderstorm, that's enough. Hurry into the city." At this time, a shout came from inside the city gate. Lei Shimeng didn't even need to look back. Just by hearing the name, he knew who it was. Behind the city gate, I saw a war general leading his troops and horses to fight out of the city gate. It was Zheng Wenxiu, the general of the Jiangnan Army. At this moment, Zheng Wenxiu no longer had the calm and cautious expression before. Instead, he was holding a long sword. With a ferocious face, he shouted: "Set the arrows. Shoot the arrows. Cover the retreat of the brothers."
As Zheng Wenxiu shouted, countless arrows flew out from behind Zheng Wenxiu. However, it was the archers brought by Zheng Wenxiu who shot arrows at the Jianghuai Army outside the city. Suddenly, the Jianghuai Army outside the city A large piece fell. And after hearing Zheng Wenxiu's words, Lei Shimeng immediately understood Zheng Wenxiu's intention of doing this. He clearly wanted to create time and opportunities for them to retreat into the city. Although Lei Shimeng acted impulsively. But they are not fools. At present, their purpose of delaying time has been achieved. The remaining few hundred people cannot withstand the enemy's attack. It is better to retreat into the city to rest first. Maybe they can play a greater role. .
He quickly figured this out. Lei Shimeng immediately swung his sword with all his strength, forcing Ximen Junyi in front of him to retreat. Then, he turned his horse's head and ran towards the back of the city gate. And Ximen Junyi was shaken by Lei Shimeng's sword. He also took three steps back on horseback. However, his action seemed to be a bit too much. Without Ximen Junyi to stop him, Jianghuai Army officers were hit by arrows again. After Ya blocked the move, Lei Shimeng led his hundreds of soldiers and rushed behind the city gate smoothly. Then, there was a bang. The city gate was closed tightly. And on top of the city Another hail of arrows flew down. The enemies under the city wall were immediately pushed back a lot.
"Hahahaha." Seeing Jiang Nanjun being pushed to such an extent by his subordinates, Du Fuwei looked up to the sky and laughed again. Then he turned his head and glanced at Zhu Can next to him. He smiled and shouted: "Xiao Mian That boy does have some talents under his command. King Jia Luo Lou, your subordinates should not always watch the show. Now that the enemies outside the city have been cleared, it’s time to attack the city."
Hearing Du Fuwei's words, Zhu Can's face turned livid. Because after being forced back, Zhu Can's bandits never moved forward again. Instead, they stayed behind the military formation and watched the Jianghuai army and the enemy. The Jiangnan army was fighting. The traitors had no military discipline at all. Zhu Can's traitors were also composed of a group of hooligans and scoundrels. It was the nature of these traitors to bully the weak and fear the strong, and to cheat and cheat. Therefore, the traitors had such a reaction. In Zhu Can's case, From Can's point of view, it was not surprising. However, Du Fuwei targeted this point with his sarcasm, which made Zhu Can lose his face. He immediately stared at the front and roared: "A bunch of trash, why don't you attack me now?" City. If you can't capture Yueyang City for me today, I will cook you all."
The last words uttered by the most famous man-eating devil in the Jiangnan area made the thieves and soldiers tremble with fear. They used to be Zhu Can's henchmen and they also followed Zhu Can in eating human flesh. But this does not mean that they He was also willing to cook himself and then be eaten by others. As soon as Zhu Can said these words, the thieves screamed and raised their weapons and pointed towards them. The walls of Yueyang City rushed over because they knew very well that Zhu Can would never scare people with empty words. If they really failed to capture Yueyang City today, then Zhu Can would definitely cook them.
At this time, the Jianghuai Army also retreated under the command of Ximen Junyi. After a hard fight, the Jianghuai Army also suffered a lot of damage, so it was understandable to retreat for a while. After commanding the soldiers to retreat, Ximen Junyi also rode up to Du Fuwei. He cupped his fists and shouted: "Father."
Looking at Ximen Junyi, Du Fuwei also narrowed his eyes and smiled. Although Wang Xiongshu died tragically, he still had a strong man like Ximen Junyi under his command. Du Fuwei was also relieved. He nodded to Ximen repeatedly. Jun Yi said: "My son is indeed brave. He has not disappointed his father. You can go down and rest first. Maybe you will need my son's help later." As he said that, Du Fuwei glanced at Zhu Can again. The meaning is naturally self-evident.
Being ridiculed repeatedly by Du Fuwei, Zhu Can didn't have a good temper. He was about to explode now. But with Zhu Can's notorious reputation, he was able to survive in the Jiangnan area for so long. Of course, he had his reasons. Soon Zhu Can He suppressed the anger in his heart and looked at Ximen Junyi with squinted eyes. But he smiled coldly and said: "General Ximen is indeed very skilled. It's a pity. If General Ximen had worked harder just now and didn't doze off. I'm afraid that the gate of Yueyang City has been breached by now."
After hearing Zhu Can's words, Ximen Junyi, who was about to go down to rest, couldn't help but pause. When he was just at the city gate, Ximen Junyi did have that ability. He rushed up before the city gate was closed. But after seeing Lei Shi After the bravery of Lei Shimeng and the Jiangnan Army officers, Ximen Junyi also felt sympathy for Lei Shimeng. So he didn't want to kill them all. Then he deliberately pretended to be forced back by the opponent and allowed him to escape into the city. .Originally, Ximen Junyi thought that he had done a perfect job, but he didn't expect that Zhu Can would still find a flaw.
