Luo Tuan nodded in satisfaction, and took off the saber from his waist: "It's good to understand, this saber will be rewarded to you, after this battle, I will reward you with [-] pennies, hurry up."

The little school thanked him again and again, knelt down and kowtowed twice before leaving, and went to the Zhedong Army camp.

In the big camp.Tangjiu was at the top, and the generals of the two sides fought to form a group. One of them stepped forward to advise: "Dutong must not lead troops out of the camp. If the Luo regiment has wiped out the enemy army as he said, it must have been done by now." Back to the camp, our army's big camp and the upper small town of Shicheng are at an angle, so why go out of the camp and take the risk of fighting to the death with the Zhenhai Navy? It must be because the battle situation is unfavorable, and the Luo regiment lied about the military situation and dragged the army into a desperate fight."

A person next to him also voiced his opposition to leaving the camp, and several people on the other side supported the camp to support Luo Tuan.There was a sudden quarrel in the tent, and Tang Jiu was also hesitant. At this time, a counselor beside him bent down and whispered to Tang Jiu, "It's better for the whole army to leave the camp. Think about it. If that Luo Tuan deceived us, it must be when the situation is critical and unable to return to the camp. Once the enemy's reinforcements arrive, the whole army will be wiped out. You still lost the battle with the King of Yue. If General Dong slanders the King of Yue, then not only will he lose his military power, but his life may be in danger. Why don't you lead the whole army out of the camp to fight to the death, take a gamble, and fight If you win, you can overshadow the previous defeats, and if you lose, you will end up just like the previous ones, so we all decide what to do."

After the counselor had finished speaking, Tang Jiu made up his mind immediately. If he stayed in the camp, he would be able to defend the main road on the Xiaoshao Canal. With Dong Chang's bloodthirsty style now, as long as someone Whispering a few words in his ear that his incompetence led to the defeat of the army and the loss of thousands of troops. Even if he didn't lose his head, he would have to be transferred back to Yuezhou and demoted to the end. It's better to go to the camp to gamble. Anyway, if you lose the bet, you can surrender Qian Miao.As for whether Dong Chang would listen to slanderous rumors, he had never seen the activities of whispering others in Dong Chang's ear back then. Tang Jiu himself had a very right to speak about Dong Chang's current disposition and actions.

"The whole army will go out of the camp and fight to the death with Zhen Haijun." The chief general got up and gave the order, and the generals below bowed their promise regardless of whether they agreed or not, and went down to command the army.

Gu Quanwu was standing on a small mound, and groups of town navy soldiers walked slowly from both sides and moved forward.There are military envoys constantly coming or leaving, passing on news and directing more than ten thousand troops to move forward.At this time, a lieutenant quickly walked behind Gu Quanwu, whispering in his ear: "The gate of the Zhedong Army's camp is open, Tang Jiu learned that the camp is going to fight, the general really has a fortune."

Gu Quanwu's two thick eyebrows almost stood up, forming a figure of eight, and he laughed and said: "Tang Jiu is really mediocre, God bless you, and the money will make you Hongfu equal to the sky, and our navy will win this battle." Gu Quanwu was excited. Walking back and forth, he gave orders to the lieutenant general: "You immediately send someone to rule Xu Zaisi, who is five miles away, and let him lead the [-] soldiers of Wuyongdu to set off immediately, and when they arrive, they will go straight to the stone city on the top of the mountain. All obstacles on the way to Yuezhou."

After Luo Tuan sent a messenger back to the camp to ask for help, he gave up the idea of ​​withdrawing his troops. He sent his guards to the front line, even jumped on his horse and led more than ten guards to rush towards Zhen Haijun. The action explained his decision to the whole army. Since he could not retreat to the camp before the arrival of the enemy army, then he should defeat this stubborn opponent before the arrival of the reinforcements.The arrival of reinforcements made the battle, which had lasted for an hour, even more bloody and cruel.The number of remaining soldiers in the Zhenhai Navy is rapidly decreasing, and the battle with disparity in strength for more than an hour has exhausted many of them. Some people often fall to the ground suddenly from exhaustion, and die suddenly before their opponents can kill them.Previously, they were able to fight against their opponents with clever maneuvers and desperation, and sometimes even overwhelm them, but when the Dong Changjun in front of them fell into a situation where there was no way out, the enemies in front of them became, if not more fierce, at least the same. The ferocity of the people, the gap in the number of people began to play a role.Surrounded on three sides, with a river on one side, the navy is slowly but irresistibly heading towards collapse. More and more soldiers threw down their weapons and ran towards the canal behind them despite the officers' stop. Almost none of them did so. The soldiers were able to escape successfully, even if they were not decapitated by the red-eyed enemy behind them. After fighting for an hour, they soon cramped their hands and feet in the piercing river, and sank into the water to drown.But the mortal ending can no longer prevent the collapse of the entire army organization. The soldiers are not escaping. They are just like frightened mice, knocked down by extreme fatigue and fear, and controlled by their own instincts to the only direction where there is no enemy. Just run.

Gu Junen stopped An Wutan, who was beheading the fleeing soldiers, shook his head and sighed: "Don't waste your energy, these brothers have done enough, if anyone can escape, let them go, why bother to commit crimes?" What? According to my prediction, it would be great if they could last two-thirds of the time today. Instead of killing them with strength, it is better to save some strength, and when Dong Changjun comes around later, get a few more backs .”

An Wutan put down the spear in his hand, smiled wryly and said: "You are right, but we, Xi Ren, are ashamed of being sick and dying on the bed, and proud of dying in battle. Today, it is nothing to regret to die with a warrior like Xiao Langjun. .”

On Shicheng Mountain, Hu Yun, the deputy general of the Eastern Zhejiang Army, watched the navy at the foot of the mountain spread over the field like a black cloud, and rushed towards the Eastern Zhejiang Army. attack."

The soldiers in the small town obeyed their orders one after another. At this moment, a sharp-eyed tooth soldier suddenly pointed to the distance and exclaimed: "General Hu, what is that big dark area over there? It should be a forest?"

There was an uproar in the city, and Hu Yundang looked in the direction of the soldier's finger first. He was over 40 years old, and his eyes were a little dizzy, but with years of battlefield experience, he still accurately judged that the black shadow was not It's not the woods, but the ambush soldiers of the Zhenhai Navy, and there are quite a few of them, at least 5000.Now that the Zhedong Army has come out in full force, Hu Yun is very clear about what all this means.

"General, retreat first. There is a small road leading to Yuezhou behind this mountain, leaving Tangjiu as a backing. If it wasn't for that guy who didn't follow General Dong Shao's order and was led out of the camp by the enemy, how could this defeat be caused? "The person who spoke was Hu Yun's nephew Hu Zhen, the captain of Hu Yun's personal guard. He stood behind Hu Yun during the military discussion in the tent just now, and insisted on Tang Jiu's disobedience to his uncle's advice. He had long been dissatisfied with the attack, and at this time, there were all Hu Yun's trilogy on Shicheng Mountain, so he spoke his mind without any scruples.

"Presumptuous, you are just a pawn, and you dare to talk about the commander and disturb the morale of the army. Come on, drag it down and behead it!" Hu Yun shouted angrily, and Hu Zhen, who was behind him, was immediately pushed to the ground by two tooth soldiers. Struggling desperately, he shouted: "Uncle, nephew, this is all for your sake. That Tangjiu is a despicable villain. If he is allowed to go back alive this time, the responsibility for the defeat will definitely be placed on uncle. Only when he dies here can uncle survive."

Hearing Hu Zhen's call, Hu Yun waved his hand to let go of Hu Zhen. As soon as Hu Zhen was let go, he immediately crawled to his uncle's feet on his knees, and without getting up, he kept Hu Yun's calf and cried: "Just now the handsome tent army!" At the time of the discussion, Uncle was the one who opposed going out to fight the camp the most. Uncle is also a veteran of the Eastern Zhejiang Army, and his prestige in the camp was already very high. Once he was defeated and returned to Yuezhou, when the king of Yue blamed him, Tang Jiu would definitely blame him. Putting the blame on the uncle, one is to shirk responsibility and avoid punishment; second, it also loses a potential opponent who may take his place. No, I am afraid that Tangjiu will never let his uncle return to Yuezhou alive, and he will not argue with you Opportunity, I'm afraid this post is reserved for you. Hurry up and return to Yuezhou and report everything to General Xiao Dong is the only way to survive! My nephew has no intention of being cowardly before the battle!" said In the end, Hu Zhen kowtowed non-stop, and the hard stone ground was soon covered with blood.The guards standing all around were full of unbearable expressions.

"Alas!" Hu Yun sighed, his voice full of bitterness.He picked up Hu Zhen casually: "Go to see General Xiaodong and tell him that when he saw an ambush in the Zhenhai Navy, he abandoned the entire battalion without firing an arrow and escaped alone. , even if he could be trusted, someone wouldn't have such a thick skin to say such a thing."

Hu Zhen's face was covered with blood, and he wanted to continue to persuade his uncle to escape, but he didn't know what to say. Hu Yun patted his nephew on the shoulder casually, untied the saber from his waist and put it in Hu Zhen's hand: "This knife It was bestowed by the King of Yue. It is extremely sharp. It has been used to defeat the enemy many times, and it will not be needed in the future. I give it to you as a thought. When you take this knife, walk along the path and don't go back to Yue. State, so as not to be killed in vain."

Hu Zhen took the saber, heard his uncle's words faintly meant farewell, knelt down and kowtowed and said: "Uncle is also going with me, you are all alone, you have no family members to encumber you, and you don't have to work in front of General Shizi."

"The salary of eating the king, the matter of being loyal to the king, I have been under the command of the King of Yue for more than ten years since I joined the army and entered Hangzhou Badu. It has been more than ten years. Such kindness can only be repaid by death. You are still young, and the days to come It's still growing, and I'll take some soldiers away later, and go back to my hometown to live. Don't go back to Yuezhou City again. The Hu family will entrust you to take care of it. The king of Yue will go against the law, and he will die sooner or later. It's a pity for General Xiaodong. "At the end, Hu Yun looked miserable, and his words were full of entrusting the funeral.
