Lin Tao looked at Lexi and the others who had already left, and a trace of pity flashed across his face. If Lexi dared to order the attack just now, Lin Tao would have an excuse to attack Xin Wangjun.At that time, you can still wipe out all the King Xin's army under the city, which is a great contribution.

Lin Tao's thoughts can't be hidden from Wu Liang. In fact, Wu Liang had already guessed some clues during the previous Wan'an battle. Now that Xia Jun appeared here, Wu Liang was completely sure. Now, Xia Cheng and Gao An must have reached some kind of secret agreement with Liu Tong.

Only in this way can it explain why Liu Tong dared to transfer all the main force from the Nan'an Army, and he didn't care about the threat of Liu Jiajun Wang Zongshi at all.Come to think of it, it must be Gao An.Gao An must have sent troops westward from Fujian Road to block Wang Zongshi's offensive for Liu Tong.But now Xia Jun suddenly appeared on the way of the Vanguard Army's retreat. Needless to say, he must also want to cooperate with Liu Jiajun to besiege the Vanguard Army in Jizhou.

It's just that Xia Cheng and Gao An were so cunning, but they didn't dare to help Liu Tong blatantly. Instead, they used all kinds of excuses to make Xin Wangjun unable to grasp the ground and dominate public opinion on the surface.Back in the vanguard army's formation, Wu Liang told Wang Hu and Lexi about his test. Both of them also looked dignified. They naturally understood that this matter was of great importance. overwhelmed.Lexi hesitated for a moment, and then said: "How about we bypass Jizhou City and retreat directly to Wugong Mountain? As long as we retreat to Wugong Mountain, I don't believe that Liu Tong would dare to chase after him."

"No." Wu Liang shook his head and rejected Lexi's proposal, and said, "Xia Cheng is old and cunning, and the advisers under him are also very powerful. This move will definitely not be the only one. If I guessed correctly Xia Cheng must have arranged a lot of ambushes on the way back to Wugong Mountain, just waiting for us to take the bait. Besides, with the current situation of the vanguard army, Liu Tong might catch up with them before they can retreat to Wugong Mountain. So We have to find another way.”[

Wang Hu also had a gloomy face. He agreed with Wu Liang's statement, bowed his head and thought for a while, and finally said to Wu Liang and Lexi: "Since we can't go west, we should go south. To the territory deep in Liu Tong, it is also There is a way out. I don’t believe it anymore, then Liu Tong is really so relieved of Xia Cheng, and dares to let him occupy so many cities.” Jizhou City is close to Fuzhou, and this part of Fuzhou is now under the control of Xia Cheng’s army, so Xia Cheng wants to go south to capture it. Jizhou is also convenient.And those territories in the south of Jizhou are the hinterland of Luzhou. No matter what kind of covenant Xia Cheng and Liu Tong reached, Liu Tong would not dare to let Xia Cheng be so presumptuous in Luzhou.

Regarding Wang Hu's statement, Wu Liang hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded in agreement with this opinion. In fact, this is the only way out for the Vanguard Army now.It's just that Wu Liang was still a little uneasy in his heart. Liu Tong was just a reckless man, so there was nothing to be afraid of, but there was Zhao Guang beside Liu Tong.Would he allow the vanguard to escape from the siege he set up like this?

Now that the goal has been set, there is no need to delay. Naturally, the vanguard army set out immediately, but on the surface, in order to deceive Lin Tao in Jizhou City, the vanguard army still made a plan to bypass Luzhou and go west to Wugong Mountain. illusion.After confirming that Lin Tao would not find out, the vanguard army immediately turned their heads and headed south, heading straight for Jiqin Mountain in the south.

However, it is not so easy to reach Jiqin Mountain. It takes at least one day's journey to go south from Jizhou City to Jiqin Mountain. On the way, you have to pass a small county town and cross a river.If the road to the north was not feasible, Wang Hu would not want to take this road.

Fortunately, in order to defend Wan'an, Zhao Guang transferred all the soldiers and horses from Luzhou and Jizhou back to Wan'an City, so the other cities in Luzhou did not have much defensive power.

Starting from Xiyang, it took two or three hours in one breath, and the distance to the destination, Jiqin Mountain, was about tens of miles.At this time, the sun was already in the sky, and it was noon. The weather in the south is very hot now, and the soldiers are sweating profusely.Seeing this situation, Wu Liang suggested to Wang Hu who was commanding the army forward: "General Wang Hu, why don't you take a rest first."

Wu Liang kept wiping the sweat from his head while talking.Although he is riding on a horse, it saves a lot of effort compared to those walking soldiers.But with such a big sun, Wu Liang is only a literati, and he was born in a big family that was spoiled and spoiled.After these few days of rushing, his originally fair face has now turned a lot darker.

Wang Hu turned his head and glanced at the surrounding soldiers, thought about it, and nodded in agreement.This morning, the vanguard army has also accelerated a lot of speed. Presumably, even if Liu Jiajun is chasing, they should be able to take Jiqin Mountain before the other party arrives.And now that the vanguard soldiers are in such a state, even if they rush to Jiqin Mountain by force, they probably don't have much physical strength, let alone capture Jiqin Mountain.

Give the order to rest on the spot, and the soldiers all lay down on the ground. They were exhausted this morning. If it weren't for Xin Wangjun's strict discipline, I'm afraid that this kind of forced rush This method has already caused the soldiers to flee.

And Wang Hu, Lexi, and Wu Liang also got off their horses, and found a place to sit and rest on the side of the road. Wang Hu asked: "General Wang Hu, how are your injuries?"

Wang Hu smiled, subconsciously stretched out his hand to touch the wound on his shoulder, shook his head and said, "It's much better. When I was in Guangshan earlier, I asked a doctor to have a look, and it doesn't bother me."

Wu Liang just smiled lightly at Wang Hu's answer. Of course he knew that Wang Hu's injury was definitely not as simple as he said, but Wang Hu refused to tell the truth.Wu Liang didn't tell him anything about it. Now the morale of the vanguard army is all supported by Wang Hu here. With Wang Hu around, the morale of the vanguard army will not be broken. This is why Wang Hu has been insisting on not saying anything. The reason for the truth.

After resting for a while, he looked up at the sky. It was past noon, and the sun was not as strong as before. Wang Hu coughed lightly, then stood up, and said to everyone: "Okay. It's almost time. We Let's get going."

Xin Wangjun's daily training is very strict. Hearing Wang Hu's words, those soldiers who were lying on the ground before immediately jumped up and stood in rows, ready to obey orders at any time.The three of Wang Hu got on their horses at the same time, and when Wang Hu was about to give the order to continue marching, a shout came from the north, and everyone turned their heads to look, but it was the scout who was sent out before, who was now riding The fast horse rushed towards this side while shouting.

Seeing the anxious look of the scout, the hearts of Wang Hu and the three couldn't help but sink. When the scout rushed to the front, before the scout could speak first, Wang Hu asked directly: "But the pursuers have arrived?"

Panting heavily, the scout got off his horse and clasped his fists at Wang Hu and replied, "Report to the general. It is the Liu family army's pursuers. About five thousand cavalry are approaching here."

"Hiss!" Hearing what the scouts said, the three of Wang Hu and even the other soldiers on the side couldn't help but gasp. No wonder the pursuers chased so fast. I didn't expect Liu Tong to be able to mobilize so many cavalry Come chase.With the speed of these cavalry, I'm afraid it won't take long for them to catch up.As soon as Wang Hu's face changed, he immediately shouted to the soldiers of the vanguard army: "What are you still doing here? Let's go! Speed ​​up towards Jiqin Mountain."

This time the vanguard soldiers didn't look tired anymore, this was related to their lives, if they were chased by the pursuers, it would be a fierce battle.The soldiers naturally hoped to rush to Jiqin Mountain as soon as possible, and many soldiers even regretted why they took so much time to rest just now.

On the road again, the atmosphere this time is completely different from just now, a sense of urgency is like a mountain, pressing on the hearts of the soldiers.That's five thousand cavalry.In such a plain area, cavalry has an absolute advantage over infantry.If the cavalry catches up, how can the two thousand vanguard army be able to withstand the attack of five thousand cavalry? [

But at this time, Wu Liang was still thinking quickly in his mind while he was on his way.Although Liu Tong used all the soldiers and horses of the Liu family army to pursue him this time, but he was able to mobilize [-] cavalry in such a short period of time. The state and the Nan'an Army are not places where horses are produced.Suddenly a thought flashed in Wu Liang's mind, he directly waved to find the scout who had just returned, and asked, "Let me ask you, what kind of horses are the pursuers of the Liu family army riding? "

"Huh?" The scout didn't expect Wu Liang to ask this suddenly, so he couldn't help being taken aback, but he lowered his head and thought for a moment, and then quickly replied: "If the villain remembers correctly, those war horses seem to be northern war horses, by the way ! They are all war horses from the original Qi Kingdom, and the vests they use are all Jin Kingdom standard vests."

"Qi cavalry." Hearing this answer, Wu Liang's eyes once again felt a chill.Sure enough.Speaking of Longyang, it must be the war horse that Liu Tong borrowed from Xia Cheng.Years ago when the Qi State was destroyed, Hu Zhuge led the cavalry to Xia Cheng's tent, and all the cavalry's horses also belonged to Xia Cheng.Xia Cheng sent the cavalry to Fuzhou, and insisted on taking Fuzhou into the hands of Xia's army.Unexpectedly, Xia Cheng secretly assisted Liu Tong to such an extent that he even lent Liu Tong such an important strategic resource as War Horse.

And this point also shows Liu Tong's determination to eliminate Wang Hu's vanguard this time, and Wu Liang is becoming more and more uneasy. It seems that Wang Hu's plan may not be so easy to complete this time.

Under the leadership of Wang Hu, the vanguard rushed towards the location of Ji Qinshan at the fastest speed, as if behind them, a devouring beast was desperately chasing them, the atmosphere of fear, depressing Make them breathless.

Finally, looking at the front from a distance, Ji Qinshan slowly appeared, a kind of relaxation from the bottom of my heart, which made everyone feel like they were about to fly.Wang Hu was also refreshed, and shouted: "Go for me! Take down Jiqin Mountain in one go."

"Kill!" Whether it was because of Wang Hu's order or because of their own lives, the vanguard soldiers rushed towards Ji Qinshan frantically, as if they really planned to take Ji Qinshan down in one go.After all, this is the only chance for the vanguard army now. Even Wu Liang temporarily let go of his doubts, drew out his sword, and charged forward with the vanguard army soldiers.

"Woo!" Seeing that the vanguard army was about to rush to Jiqinshan County, suddenly a horn sounded from inside the city, and the gate of Jiqinshan opened automatically.And from the city, a cavalry rushed out first, holding two guns and wearing silver armor, and shouted at the vanguard: "Wang Hu! Wu Liang! Nangong Xiong has been waiting here for a long time."

"Nangong Xiong." Wu Liang's eyes widened immediately. Of course, he recognized that the general with a steel gun in front of him was Nangong Xiong, the second most skilled general in Liu's army after Liu Tong.Originally, this Nangong Xiong had been stationed in the Nan'an Army all year round to guard against Wang Zongshi's and other troops, but he did not expect that he would appear here now.Seeing Nangong Xiong appearing here, Wu Liang's head also exploded with thunder. Doesn't this indicate that the plan of the vanguard army has fallen into Liu Jiajun's calculations from the very beginning.

What Wu Liang thought, Wang Hu also thought of, but now there is no other way out, the only way to continue to move forward, only to defeat Nangong Xiong and win Jiqin Mountain, can the vanguard have a chance of survival.Immediately, Wang Hu roared angrily, raised his hook and sickle spear, and rode his horse towards Nangong Xiong to kill him.

Facing Wang Hu who rushed to kill him, although Nangong Xiong had never seen Wang Hu himself before, Nangong Xiong guessed Wang Hu's identity from the brand new hook and sickle gun in Wang Hu's hand.Seeing Nangong Xiong sneer, he also raised the two guns in his hands, facing Wang Hu and killed him.As for Wu Liang, who was in the vanguard army, he was shocked when he saw him. He knew that Wang Hu's injury was not healed at all. Now if he fights with Nangong Xiong, who is also a master of martial arts, he will only die.He hurriedly shouted to Lexi: "General Le. Hurry up and help General Wang Hu. The other soldiers will attack the city with me."

In this moment of crisis, the soldiers of the Vanguard Army no longer cared whether Wu Liang had command authority. Under Wu Liang's command, the soldiers of the Vanguard Army began to rush towards the city gate frantically.However, at this moment, there was movement again from the city. This time it was not just one or two figures, but a large number of soldiers and horses rushed out. At a glance, there were at least 5000 people.

But when things got to this point, there was no longer any way out. Wu Liang gritted his teeth and took the lead. He led the soldiers and rushed to fight with the Liu family army who rushed out of the city.

At the same time, Wang Hu had already made a mess with Nangong Xiongsha.I saw that Nangong Xiong waved the two spears in his hands like two balls of light, pressing towards Wang Hu from left and right.For a while, around Wang Hu, there were many gun shadows, and ordinary people really couldn't tell which move was real and which move was false.

However, that Wang Hu was not easy to deal with. Although he was injured, it did not affect Wang Hu's eyesight and experience. The hooked sickle gun that was just built cut directly towards the wrists of Nangong Xiong's hands.This move must be defended against, no matter how fast Nangong Xiong's spear move is, it still can't escape the control of his wrist, Wang Hu's knife is aimed directly at the vital point, but it is also a clever way to break Nangong Xiong's attack.

"Good time!" Nangong Xiong shouted, but his face became more and more excited.He has an extremely belligerent character. In the Nan'an Army, Nangong Xiong either fought with Liu Tong, or fought with the army led by Wang Zongshi from time to time.The masters of the same level only met Liu Tong and Wang Zongshi, but now they met Wang Hu, a new opponent, Nangong Xiong felt the blood in his whole body was boiling, and he fought Wang Hu energetically.

Nangong Xiong became more courageous as he fought, but Wang Hu felt more bitter as he fought.After these few rounds of fighting, Wang Hu has been able to judge the extent of Nangong Xiong's skill. Although he can be regarded as a master of martial arts, compared with Liu Tong, Nangong Xiong is still lacking.

If it was Wang Hu in his heyday, if he had to face Nangong Xiong, even if he couldn't win, he could at least maintain an undefeated situation.But the problem now is that Wang Hu has injuries on his body. Every time he swings the knife, Wang Hu feels the pain from the wound on his shoulder, and it feels like a hand is holding his heart in his chest, which makes Wang Hu gasp a little. But he was out of breath, which meant that Wang Hu's internal injuries had begun to break out.

Under various unfavorable circumstances, it is almost impossible for Wang Hu to defeat Nangong Xiong now.After blocking Nangong Xiong's several attacks one after another, Wang Hu only had the power to parry, but the ability to counterattack again.As for Nangong Xiong, the more he fought, the more courageous he became. The two guns in his hands were like continuous flowing water, attacking Wang Hu wave after wave, and the strength of each move was strengthened. In the end, Wang Hu even felt that his hands were starting to go numb, and he couldn't use his strength.

"Look at the trick." Seeing that Wang Hu was being forced to retreat steadily by his own two guns, a cold light flashed in Nangong Xiong's eyes, and the big guns attacked Wang Hu's chest from the left and right sides like lightning.And Wang Hu could only barely lift the hook and sickle spear, stood in front of his chest, swung left and right, and stabbed two spears one after another.But this time, Wang Hu gasped involuntarily, and a trace of red water leaked from his shoulder. Obviously, the action just now pulled away the wound on his shoulder.

At this time, Nangong Xiong did not continue to attack, but held the big gun upside down, squinted his eyes and looked at Wang Hu, and said coldly, "Are you wounded?"

Nangong Xiong saw through his injury, Wang Hu simply stopped covering it up, curled his lips, and said with a so-called face: "So what if there is an injury? Even so, you can't easily defeat me, Wang Hu. "[

"Tsk." Nangong Xiong immediately showed a complicated expression on his face. With his temperament in the world, how could he be willing to deal with an injured opponent?But this person in front of him is not an ordinary enemy general, but Wang Hu, the general of Xinwang Army.

If Nangong Xiong showed mercy today and let Wang Hu escape, he would definitely become Liu Tong's great enemy in the future.Out of loyalty to Liu Tong, Nangong Xiong was not allowed to talk about the loyalty of the world to show mercy to his subordinates.Taking a deep breath, he shouted in a deep voice: "Wang Hu. Although you are injured, but for the sake of Liu Jiajun, I will be a despicable villain today. Look at the trick!" After finishing speaking, Nangong Xiong stood up with a murderous look on his face. The big gun stabbed at Wang Hu again.

Facing Nangong Xiong's merciless attack this time, Wang Hu gritted his teeth and wanted to stand up again, but just as he raised his arm, there was a piercing pain from his shoulder, and he couldn't respond at all.Seeing that the big spear was about to stab his face, Wang Hunai could only roll over, but he fell off the horse, lifted his foot and kicked directly towards Nangong Xiong's mount.

Although Wang Hu was injured on his shoulder, his foot was not injured. This kick hit the horse's leg, and it broke the horse's leg directly.The war horse let out a mournful cry, and immediately fell down. Nangong Xiong, who was sitting on the horse, had no idea that Wang Hu, such a well-known general, would make such a move.He didn't pay attention for a moment, and fell down.

However, with Nangong Xiong's skill, this problem is not difficult for him. I saw the spear in his left hand pointing to the ground, and the whole person rolled over in the air, and stood firmly.But as soon as he stood still, Nangong Xiong yelled loudly, and the big gun stabbed at Wang Hu again.
