I will not be king in the Spring and Autumn Period

Sun Wu accepted this important task, and knew that the responsibility was heavy, so he said in a deep voice:
"Don't worry, sir, even if Wu fights for his life, he will never back down!"

Sun Wu took the order and took Fan Li with him.And Chu Dang was gearing up there, and wanted to go into battle to kill the enemy.But the most important thing for him now is to protect Li Ran comprehensively, so naturally he can't go together.

Seeing Chu Dang like this, Li Ran couldn't help smiling.

"Swing, and follow me out for a walk!"

At this time, Li Ran didn't leave anyone else around, only Chu Dang was alone, and Chu Dang was tall, which gave people a sense of security.

"Actually, sir, that boy named Fan Li can completely guard his side. I see that he is quite capable. If I can't go into battle to kill the enemy, wouldn't my strength be wasted?!"

This statement is not false, thinking back then when Chu Dang ran into the wrong enemy formation, he was able to use a pair of long halberds alone to stir up chaos in Ji's barracks.Therefore, when it comes to killing the enemy, he is indeed a good player.

Li Ran only smiled slightly, but ignored him, just followed Chu Dang to a high place, and looked in the direction of Zheng Yi from a distance.

Zhengyi's moat is drawn from the side of the Si River, and the army led by Sun Wu is now beside the Sishui River, which is the source of the moat.

Although this place is a flat river, due to the terrain, the west, south, and north are slightly higher, and it gradually slopes from west to east, shaped like a dustpan, forming a half-slope terrain.

Therefore, although Si Zhuan's army was approaching step by step, they were not in a hurry to charge.

Sun Wunai ordered 1000 men to hide in the hills to respond, while Ye Yi's [-] elite troops were placed behind the Sishui Hall.

Seeing the army approaching, after most of them passed the half slope, they only heard Si Zhuan's order, the sound of drums and horns, the sound of war horses, and the whole army began to charge.

At this time, Sun Wu ordered the men to retreat another five miles. It turned out that the terrain here was potholed, and Sun Wu deliberately formed an array here, as long as the enemy did not check the terrain here. Once the chariot entered this place, it would no longer be able to launch charge.

Seeing this, Zhuan Si also made a decisive decision, leading the infantry to cover up the killing.

Seeing that these infantry were about to rush in, Sun Wu ordered the chariots in the rear row to ascend the slope from the reverse slope to line up suddenly, and rushed down in a single-minded attack.

The chariot rushed into the infantry, and it was like a broken bamboo. In a moment, Si Zhuan's infantry was smashed into pieces in an instant.

And Sun Wu made reasonable use of the terrain here, which can be regarded as a cruel trick of Si Zhuan.

It can be seen that the power of the chariot combined with the three spear halberds is also greatly increased.Facing the infantry directly again, it was really like a wolf joining a herd of sheep, and the opponents who were killed straight away were crying ghosts and gods howling.

When the shock wave of Sun Wu's chariot was over, Sun Wu immediately ordered all the chariots to withdraw.But as the saying goes, diving is easy and climbing is difficult, so how easy is it for a chariot to get out of a low-lying place?
Zhuan Si saw that Sun Wu's chariot formation was dying, so how could he let them get off easily?

Therefore, he ordered the follow-up soldiers to charge forward.

And Sun Wu was also prepared for this, only to see the 1000 people hiding in the hills rushed out again at this time, catching the opponent by surprise.

Those 1000 people were intended to fight with most of the enemy army as much as possible, so that the chariots could retreat in time.But after all, the disparity in military strength is too great. After all, it seems like a stone sinks in the blink of an eye.

Sun Wu's manpower is really too small, and he has already made the most of everything available.

Seeing this, Sun Wu was completely helpless.

As the battle situation deepened, it seemed that they were about to retreat.

What Sun Wu can use now is only the elite Qianyeyi who are lying in Sishui.

Seeing that the time has come to have to use it.Just when Sun Wu wanted to ask Fan Li beside him to draw the last strength to come.

at this time!

But suddenly, from the enemy's rear, there was a rapid sound of ringing gold!

Si Zhuan actually retreated!

This surprised Sun Wu and everyone else.

After all, Si Zhuan had already completely gained the upper hand at this moment, but at this moment he suddenly called for gold and withdrew his troops. This really made everyone puzzled for a while.

Both Sun Wu and Fan Li looked at this scene in astonishment: Si Zhuan's army retreated.

In fact, not only were they puzzled, even Li Ran, who was watching the battle from the rear, was also puzzled by this.

But since he was lucky enough to escape the catastrophe, Li Ran immediately ordered all the ministries to quickly gather up the remaining soldiers, retreat [-] miles to the camp, and wait there.

And everyone in the big tent discussed the scene with Fang Cai for a long time, but it was still fruitless.

It was indeed a sudden incident, and it was really too weird. Everyone felt that there might be some conspiracy in it...

In the evening, the sun was setting, and the land covered by the sunset glow was red, as if it was an open space on the battlefield not long ago, adding a bit of blood and residual red.

All this made Li Ran and the others faintly feel uneasy.

In the camp, Li Ran paced back and forth with his hands behind his back.

"Where is Si Zhuan now?"

"I don't know, but he has led the army back to the city!"

"Oh? Could it be that...some major event happened in Zheng Yizhong, forcing Si Zhuan to retreat to the city? If so, it seems that this matter must be serious. Now that the two armies are at war, the gate control is strict, and the news of Owl Wing may not spread for a while. come out……"

"Sir, Wu Yuan went to Zhengyi to find out the situation."

Li Ran glanced at Sun Wu, but shook his head again.

"Changqing, it is not suitable for you to go to Zhengyi right now. You still need to control the soldiers and horses here. Besides, you are an old face in Zhengyi. Once you enter the city, I am afraid that you will be recognized by Shu Niu and others. out!"

At this time, Fan Li, who was listening to the side, volunteered to say:

"Sir! Li wish to go!"

Hearing this, Li Ran turned around and looked at Fan Li again.

Indeed, Sun Wu is not suitable, and Chu Dang's melon seeds can't make things happen.After all the calculations at the moment, Fan Li is indeed the most suitable, and he is a stranger, and Shu Niu and the others don't know him.

"It's just... Shaobo, this trip is full of dangers, you..."

"Don't worry sir, Fan Li knows what to do!"

"Okay. Since Shao Bo is so determined, you will sneak into Zhengyi to spy on the situation tonight, and you must find out why they retreated this time. Maybe behind this is our chance to win!"

"In addition, three hundred steps to the west of Jishi's ancestral hall, there is an alley surrounded by houses, and there is a wine shop at the end of the alley. At that time, just find someone named 'Owl Wing', and bring this token, just report the name No, the people in the restaurant will take you to meet him! When you meet Owlwing, just ask him about the situation in the city."

While listening, Fan Li took the token with both hands, and replied:
"It's just...if it's not an emergency, Li thinks it's better not to meet him! Don't spoil the master's plan!"

"It doesn't matter! However, Shaobo should play it by ear!"

……

As night fell, Fan Li immediately changed into ordinary civilian clothes, sneaked near the city wall, observed the patrol rules on the city wall, found an opportunity, and relied on his vigorous skills to cross the city wall and enter Zhengyi.

Fan Li stooped to avoid the guards, and when he got near Zhengyi Vegetable Market, there was a strange sound blowing in the breeze. Fan Li was bold and careful, and hid behind a low wall with a short body, then leaned over to look.

In the narrow aisle in the night, a figure floated by, but it was a man in armor!

Fan Li thought it might be a guard in the city, so he squatted there all the time, but seeing that person remained motionless, Fan Li felt a little strange, so he raised his head and looked intently.

At this time, the moonlight was imprinted on his armor, shining brightly, the long sword in his hand was always out of the sheath, under the moonlight, the cold light was overwhelming.

Fan Li looked intently again, but couldn't help but feel the hairs all over his body stand on end, and a chill came down his back—this man is actually headless!
When Fan Li saw it, he couldn't help gasping, and the figure seemed to be slowly approaching him, and it seemed to be moving like this without touching the ground.

In a blink of an eye, he was only a few meters away from Fan Li, and he was more than a ghost, and there was a strange chattering sound from his abdomen:

"Kill Feng Duan! Renyin Day! Feng Duan is dead!"

Fan Li didn't believe in evil since he was a child, so he picked up a wooden stick beside him, and the wooden stick flew towards the headless man with strength.

The headless man seemed to be able to see, swung the big sword in his hand, and cut the wooden stick in two.

The headless man glanced in Fan Li's direction, ignored him, and floated away on his own... Seeing all this, Fan Li involuntarily reached out to wipe the cold sweat on his forehead.

In the night, a headless man just drifted away.

He wanted to chase after him, but his legs couldn't move...
