Chapter 135
Qu Jing was overjoyed, Yue Ren's combat power, he knew very well that it was more brave than the soldiers in his hands.

Immediately, Qu Jing slaughtered more than a dozen of the farm cattle that he had robbed a few days ago, and entertained these chiefs to his heart's content.

After a banquet, the guests and hosts had a great time, and in the next few days, there were indeed strong men with thick backs and disheveled hair. Three hundred and five hundred people gathered in a group and came to Nanhai City one after another.

It's just that these Yue people have lax discipline, and the district scene is also afraid that they will provoke troubles in the city, and they have temporarily set up many military camps outside the city, entertaining them with good wine and meat every day, just waiting for the arrival of Yuan Yao's army.

The story is divided into two parts, not talking about how to do things in the direction of the South China Sea, but saying that Yuchi Gong was the vanguard, and the whole journey was like a broken bamboo, killing and dispersing the obstacles of the Jingyou soldiers in the area, step by step. The mountain defenders were stationed at the main points along the way, guarding the food roads, and everything was ready. It was getting late, but some spies from the army came to report and found many Yue people peeping at the camp in the mountains and forests.

Yuan Yao hurriedly found Li Ji and Pang Tong, and asked: "Our army has just set up camp, but many Yue people outside came to peek at the camp. What do you two think?"

Pang Tong said solemnly: "The important place of the military camp, how can people peep at it, it is best to send people to drive it away."

Li Ji smiled and stopped him: "Otherwise, the spies in the city once said that there are many Yue people in the District Scenic Department to help. Although the peeping people today are dressed like ordinary people, they are all thick-backed. Obviously they are sent by the district scene. If I As expected, there must be plans to rob the camp tonight."

Yuan Yao laughed loudly, and said he was half an expert in robbing the camp.

Immediately, he called for all the generals, gave a secret order, ordered the soldiers to have enough food, and took advantage of the night to lie in ambush around the camp, leaving only an empty camp, with straw men as soldiers, standing in the dark.

Things really happened as Li Ji expected, District Jing was a general who ruled a county at any rate, and he had read some military books, and seeing Yuan Yao coming from afar and camping on the mountain, he wanted to take advantage of Yuan Yao's unstable foothold to discourage him.

That night, as expected, he led 5000 soldiers and [-] Yue warriors, secretly opened the city gate, and rushed to Yuan Yao's barracks. The leader is impatient, and he is about to rush forward with the people.

Qu Jing kept an eye out, and sent dozens of people to explore the way. These people shouted and rushed into the barracks, but found that it was an empty camp. They were all shocked and wanted to withdraw in a hurry.

In the night, Yuan Jun's soldiers couldn't see clearly, they just saw someone entering, and they fired arrows at random, and dozens of people who entered died on the spot.

The district scene was taken aback, knowing that the strategy had been seen through, he hurriedly gathered the soldiers and was about to return to the city.

At this time, the guns rang out all around, and Qin Qiong led a thousand soldiers on the left, and Yu Chigong led his troops out, attacking from both sides, and the two armies fought in a melee.

Qu Jing's soldiers saw countless torches appearing in the dark night, and they didn't know how many people came to kill them. They were flustered and gradually couldn't resist. Suddenly, Yuan Yao personally brought his white-armed soldiers to fight on foot. Qu Jing resisted Unable to stop, under the desperate protection of his own soldiers, he rushed out of the siege and fled back to the city. When his subordinates saw the general retreating, they also ran back in a swarm.

Yuan Yao didn't chase after him, but returned to the barracks with the victorious soldiers.

But he said that Qu Jing failed to rob the camp, but was defeated by Yuan Yao in the dark, and when he returned to the city to count the losses, he lost 3000 people. It has mobilized the spirit of our army, what can we do for it?"

One of them got up and shouted: "Brother District, don't be afraid, even though it was broken for a while tonight, it only hurt the skin. Tomorrow, let's see me kill one of his generals, so as to inspire the army."

Qu Jing was startled, and looked at it hastily, only to see that the person who spoke was nine feet tall, with short hair, linen clothes, bare feet, painted face, and tiger tattoo on his chest. Yes, this man is very brave, well-known in the South China Sea, and even more powerful, he once killed a large spotted leopard with his bare hands, he is a first-class warrior among the Yue people.

Seeing this person's exit, all the people sitting there were really excited, and they all responded in unison: "You Muli is going out, why are you afraid of Yuan Yao'er?"

The district scene is also exciting, sweeping away the depression of defeat.

So he asked someone to bring out a plate of red gold and gave it to Mu Li, saying: "A small gift is just to thank brother Mu for his kindness. If you win tomorrow, there will be a big profit!"

Mu Li was overjoyed, holding the plate of red gold, patted his chest and shouted: "Don't worry, District General, let's see my meritorious service tomorrow!"

Yuan Yao won the first battle, and the morale of the soldiers was high. Early the next morning, everyone got up and put on their attires. Gan Ning was left to guard the camp with a thousand soldiers.

He ordered Yu Chigong to be the vanguard and went to Drift War, and he led an army of 3000 people as the Chinese army, and brought Qin Qiong, Cheng Yaojin, Li Ji and others to the city of Nanhai.

Yuan Jun's soldiers lined up in a straight line and rushed outside the city gate.

On the edge of the ditch outside the city, Mu Li had already lined up with tens of thousands of Yue warriors, each of them was a majestic figure, and when they saw the cavalry rushing, they were not afraid, but roared provocatively.

Within the central army, Yuan Yao heard the clamor in front of him, so he hurriedly sent someone to inquire, knowing that it was the Yue people calling for the war, he hurriedly led all the generals, ordered Li Ji to sit in the central army, and rushed to the front of the formation together with Qin Qiong and Cheng Yaojin , I saw tens of thousands of Yue people, they had all pressed up, stopped within the bow and arrow range of the city wall, raised their weapons one by one, and shouted loudly.

Even though many of them were not protected by armor, they were still not timid, and some of them even dared to run to the front of the formation and call for a fight.However, in one place, there was no sound at all, where the Yue people held their breaths and focused on the big man in the front.

Needless to say, this person is exactly Mu Li. Today, because it was a challenge, he deliberately wore a half-length armor. The battle armor he wears, as a last resort, he can only wear half of the armor on the battlefield.

Even so, it added to his bravery. Coupled with his tall stature, everyone knew that this person must be a fierce general.

Yuan Yao was also surprised when he saw Muli, and asked the people around him, but the spies who had infiltrated returned, "This is Muli, the leader of the largest Yue tribe in the South China Sea, and it is rumored that he has undeserved courage."

Before the words fell, there was a deafening cheer from among the Yue people, and Muli was jogging to the front of the two armies, shouting loudly: "I am Muli, a warrior of the Yue nationality. The Han on the opposite side, How dare you fight me!"

After finishing speaking, he raised the mace in his hand as if in a demonstration, and poked it heavily on the ground, only to hear a loud bang, and the ground was forced down into a shallow pit.The Yueren behind him cheered again when they saw it.

Seeing this scene, Yuan Yao was also taken aback. How much force would it take to smash a hole out of the originally flat and hard soil.

However, the enemy's challenge, if one's own side refuses, the morale of those gangsters will be even higher.He looked at the generals around him and asked, "Who are you waiting for who is willing to go out and fight?"

Cheng Yaojin on the side heard this, and thought to himself that his first shot was a good opportunity to make meritorious service, so he called for the battle first and said: "The final general is willing to fight!"

Yuan Yao nodded and said be careful.

I saw Cheng Yaojin wielding the Xuanhua axe, and when he saw Muli fighting step by step, he dismounted from his horse, rushed out of the formation with a few steps, and aimed at Muli with an axe.

Seeing Cheng Yaojin's ferocious approach, Muli also raised his Xuanhua ax to block Wei Yan's attack, and shouted: "Hold on slowly, under my stick, don't kill lowly people, and report your official title Name, if it's a small official, I don't bother to kill you!"

Cheng Yaojin was furious, his legs exerted strength, he firmly pressed down on Muli's mace, and shouted loudly: "A barbarian and a reckless man deserves to know my name, and after fifty rounds of fighting, come ask me again." !"

Mu Li was also furious, and with all his might, he knocked Cheng Yaojin's Xuanhua ax away, and cursed: "I kindly asked your name, how dare you insult me, today I will take your dog's life first!"

While talking, the mace was thrown up and down by Mu Liwu, like a whirlwind blowing in the flat ground, only the whistling in the air, and a dark shadow of the stick, moving towards Cheng Yao Gold is just throwing it around,
Cheng Yaojin knew that Muli had great strength just now, he didn't want to fight hard, but he gave way, and attacked Muli's side, Muli was shocked, and also turned around, smashing the golden knife that was stretched out, you two come to me In the past, there were more than fifty bouts in the fight, regardless of victory or defeat.

Mu Li has a solid eye, when he saw that he had passed his fiftieth, he jumped out of the circle and shouted: "Come on, come on, now that the fiftieth has passed, and the name has been passed, let's call again."

Cheng Yaojin laughed, and shouted again: "A mere fifty hits is just enough for me to warm up. If you want to know my name, let's talk if you can beat me for a hundred hits!"

Mu Li was furious, he didn't speak any more, just focused on wielding the mace, biting Jin at the same time and killing each other.

The soldiers on both sides cheered at the same time, cheering for their respective generals.Seeing that the fight reached seventy rounds, the force of the wood was strong, and the mace was also heavy, and he was exhausted from swinging continuously. He was out of breath. Muli, above the city tower, saw the scene, and hurriedly ordered the cannon to be fired, opened the city gate, and personally led his troops out to meet him, and the Yue people outside the city also uttered a shout and rushed forward.

Yuan Yao hastily ordered Ming Jin to withdraw his troops, and retreated slowly.

Cheng Yaojin was alarmed when he heard the ringing, and hastily left Muli, and his own soldiers found the horses to catch up with him, and escorted Cheng Yaojin back to the formation

Seeing Yuan Yao's retreat, Qu Jing hurriedly drove his troops forward, and then concealed the killing.

Unexpectedly, Yuan Yao retreated hundreds of meters, just far away from the city wall, and reached an open area. With the sound of the army's trumpet, Yu Chigong's forward battalion suddenly turned around and began to charge. Many crossbowmen were sent out, shooting randomly at the charging enemy army.

Rushing to the front, they are all Yue people. Although these people fight bravely, they have no formation at all. They can barely form a straight line on the edge of the city wall. When Yuan Yao deliberately retreats, he lures them out of the range of the bow and arrow. Afterwards, some of these people ran fast, some ran slowly, and the formation was completely disorganized. They just rushed up in a swarm. How could they resist the charge of the iron cavalry formed by Yu Chigong? There were hundreds of Yue warriors in just one sprint. Being knocked into the air or killed by a war horse, even if they barely escaped the trampling of the war horse, the soldiers who broke the barracks on the horse would stab them casually with a single shot, which could end their lives.

These people didn't have any armor to protect them, and all of them were killed by the cavalry in a short time, and they all fled back. The army rushed out from the left wing, and Cheng Yaojin led an army to rush out from the right wing, and kept driving these people towards the city gate, trying to take advantage of the chaos to seize the city.

The district scene parked at the back was not a vegetarian either. Seeing that the defeat was a foregone conclusion, he refused to fight, gathered the soldiers behind, and fled into the city together, regardless of the people behind who had not yet entered the city. The city gates are closed.

On the top of the city, the archers also began to draw their bows and set arrows, although they were waiting for Yuan Yao's cavalry to enter the range.

There was no other way, Yuan Yao had no choice but to ask for money to withdraw.

When he dispatched troops this time, for the sake of speed, most of the siege equipment was still behind, and it was impossible for the cavalry to attack the city, so he had to order Qin Qiong to divide his troops to capture the scattered Yue people. There were more than [-] people in total, and they were all punished as prisoners of war. Dig rocks everywhere.

Qu Jing fled back to the city and counted the losses. Although his own soldiers and horses were not damaged, the number of Yue people was less than [-]. He couldn't help being shocked. He knew that although Yuan Yao's soldiers and horses were small, they were all elite, and he could not do it himself. To resist, I can't help but secretly regret that I shouldn't take the initiative to cause trouble.

However, now that things are done, he also knows that Yuan Yao will never let him go, so he has to call all the generals to discuss countermeasures.

Mu Li came here full of confidence, and was almost defeated in the first battle. His face was dull, his face was dark, and he sat aside sullenly. He didn't care much about the loss of his own tribe, anyway, as long as his own tribe's warriors There is no loss, it doesn't matter whether others are dead or alive, but, yesterday he made a bold statement, but today he suffered a crushing defeat. How can he, who has always been proud, hold his head up?
Qu Jing looked at his words and guessed something, and comforted him: "Brother Mu, don't worry, victory or defeat is a common matter in military affairs. Although Yuan Yao is brave, our city is strong, we just need to defend it, once they run out of food, they will naturally retreat."

Mu Li sighed, got up to say goodbye, and went back to his residence, Qu Jing didn't blame him, thinking that he was in a bad mood, and just asked people to give more gold and silver to comfort his heart.On the one hand, it makes people stick to the city and guard against Liu Shang's attack.

Because Yuan Yao was behind the siege equipment and had to guard against the harassment of Yue people along the way, he did not move. He just chose soldiers with loud voices to scold and fight every day, and made people take advantage of the opportunity to attack several times at night. King Jing is heavily guarded and cannot succeed.

This dragged on for four days in a row, and the two sides fought occasionally, each winning or losing.

On the fifth day, Yuan Yao was discussing the method of attacking the city with everyone. Suddenly, the guards outside came to report, and the siege equipment from the rear was brought up.

Yuan Yao was overjoyed, and hurriedly led all the generals out together, and saw carts and carts pushed in by civilian husbands in the barracks with great difficulty.

The top is covered with a large cloth, so you can't see clearly what's inside, but once you see the size of these vehicles, you know it must be a huge thing. There are a total of one hundred of these vehicles, neatly placed in the open space .Many soldiers were curiously probing their brains, discussing what was inside.

Yuan Yao and Li Ji looked at each other, both a little happy, and asked Pang Tong beside him, "How many stones have those captives dug?"
