The strongest Marquis in history

"Yes!"

Gu Tong was in high spirits.

Xia Houhu's single-handed action with people has already been successful, which means that this battle is bound to be won.

Gu Tong immediately gave the order to switch from defense to offense. The soldiers under his command were already high-spirited, and a soldier could not wait to get out early.Now that the order was given, the soldiers in charge of defense went out first, followed by another [-] soldiers into the battlefield.

Wang Qi was the same as Gu Kang, he never made a fuss, and directly invested [-] elite soldiers.

An army of [-] continued to attack.

The offensive was fierce.

Chapter 520 The Third Step Plan

The battle between the two sides continued.

Whether it's the strength of Gu Kang's side or Wang Qi's side, they are constantly increasing.More and more soldiers were fighting, and the shouts of killing continued one after another.

Time passed by little by little, the sun was setting, and the night was gradually becoming more and more obvious.The fight between the two sides, from the beginning of being evenly matched, gradually became the winner.

Gu Kang's army gradually showed signs of defeat.

More and more people are starting to fight and retreat.

Seeing all this, Gu Kang felt a little restless.There is no other reason. All the troops under his command, except for a team of personal guards, have already suppressed them, but they are still lost.

In particular, Wang Qi's army attacked wave after wave, and the offensive became stronger and stronger.The situation on the entire battlefield has already suppressed his team, and the situation is extremely bad.

Gu Kang felt a little anxious, and said in a deep voice, "Mr. Qu, what should we do now?"

He was quite helpless.

Xiong Tai died first.

Then, his army is now also defeated.Originally, he brought troops to Jiujiang County this time because he was planning to tear a piece of meat from Jiujiang County.I didn't expect that now, I didn't get any benefits, but I was stealing chickens and losing money.

Qu Jin sighed: "My lord, we can only retreat at the moment. If we continue to kill, the army will definitely be defeated. Even so, our evacuation will be very troublesome. After all, the Shuizhai Ferry is not on land. Once we are entangled, it will be very difficult. It's hard to get out. But no matter what, we can only retreat now."

Gu Kang thought for a while, then sighed, and said, "Send the order, withdraw the troops."

Qu Jin got the order and immediately ordered it.

A moment later, the sound of Ming Jin withdrawing troops sounded.After the sound came out, the entire army of Lujiang County began to retreat.Gu Kang and Qu Jin had already evacuated first, and they had to go to the water village to board the boat earlier.

The army of Lujiang County retreated, and the morale of Wang Qi's soldiers was even higher.

Wang Qi gave the order for a fierce attack, and together with Gu Tong led the soldiers under his command to cover up and attack on a large scale.With the onslaught of the army, the soldiers in Lujiang County who fell behind were constantly killed.

For a time, there were countless casualties.

Many Lujiang County soldiers who were unable to escape began to surrender because they couldn't stop them.During the previous fight, all the soldiers in Lujiang County had hoped that they would defeat Wang Qi's army and then plunder in Jiujiang County.

In the actual fight, everyone was slapped across the face.

Wang Qi's army continued to pursue.

It's just that Gu Kang escaped at a relatively fast speed. In a short time, the people led by Wang Qi couldn't catch up.The two sides chased and fled, and the location of Xilin Ferry was getting closer and closer.

Qu Jin and Gu Kang were on their way together. When he was galloping on horseback, a possibility suddenly came to his mind.

Wang Qi's method will not be simple.

As for the water village, it is very likely that there is Wang Qi's method, even waiting for them to enter the urn.

Qu Jin only felt his scalp tingling, and became more cautious, and quickly persuaded him, "Master Taishou, let's not go to the Xilin Ferry to break out and board the ship. We will immediately turn around and enter the territory of Jiujiang County to break through from the territory of Jiujiang County."

Gu Kang was evacuating quickly and asked, "Mr. Qu, what do you mean?"

Qu Jin said: "Based judgment, since Wang Qi gave up Xilin Ferry first, and now he is defeating us head-on. It can be seen that Wang Qi's own strength is not afraid of us. If this is the case, why he deliberately quit Xilin Ferry is to plot against us. "

"Of course what kind of means Wang Qi has. I can't guess in a short time. But I think Wang Qi must have means, and we must treat it with caution."

"So I can't go to the ferry again."

Qu Jin was very nervous at this time, he thought that Wang Qi had been making arrangements from the very beginning.

Gu Kang said: "Mr. Qu, it's not possible."

Qu Jin said: "My lord, you can't be careless at the time of life and death!"

Gu Kang truly trusted Qu Jin and spoke his heart out.After careful consideration, he also approved of Qu Jin's analysis, and said directly: "Okay, I believe sir."

Gu Kang immediately took off his armor, and handed his flag to Ye Li, who was retreating beside him, and said in a deep voice: "Ye Li, the situation is critical, and I don't know if the ferry is in danger. You take the army and go to Go in the direction of the ferry, prepare to break out from the ferry, board the boat and leave. Now I will go by land and go back to Lujiang County, where we will meet up."

"Yes!"

Ye Li nodded and answered.

As Gu Kang's confidant, the situation was critical, so he immediately took over the commander-in-chief flag and led his troops to evacuate quickly.As for Gu Kang and Qu Jin, they left with a small number of personal guards, and there was no news at all.

After all, the entire army has withdrawn and fled in all directions.In order to avoid being chased and killed, countless people fled desperately and did not stay at all.

Ye Li led his people and quickly evacuated. The army under his command was getting closer and closer to Xilin Ferry.

"Withdraw troops, withdraw troops at full speed. After we board the ship, we can leave in the shortest possible time."

"Retreat at full speed!"

Ye Li shouted loudly.

At this time, Ye Li only wanted to retreat earlier, after all, Gu Kang had already left with Qu Jin's suspicion.

He just needs to protect himself, and he doesn't have to worry about the rest.

He kept on driving with his people, getting closer and closer to Xilin Ferry.When the soldiers at the front had arrived at Xilin Ferry and saw the warships docked on the shore, every soldier became excited.

Ye Li was also relieved at this time, and was finally able to evacuate.

board the ship!

Ye Li shouted loudly.

He led the people onto the ship quickly, and the soldiers at the front continued to go to the warship.

Ye Li quickly ordered the soldiers under his command to go to the oar room and prepare to lift the anchor and sail the boat.As long as they retreat into Chaohu Lake, everything will become easier, and it will be a breeze to retreat to Lujiang County.

"General, it's not good!"

Not long after, a soldier came to Ye Li and quickly reported: "General Ye, something is wrong. All the oars cannot be moved. It is estimated that this situation should be tied to death, and there is no way to move in a short time. solve."

"General, the warship cannot be started."

At this time, there was another warship, and the voices of soldiers from Lujiang County came.

There were also voices from the other warships.

Ye Li's heart sank.

Finished!

All the warships were unable to paddle, which meant that this was Wang Qi's ambush.But now the direction of Xilin Ferry is full of densely packed Wang Qi soldiers, the exit is completely blocked, the situation is already quite bad.

How to do?

At this moment, Ye Li finally understood how powerful Qu Jin was.

Sure enough, it was counted by Qu Jin.

In fact, Ye Li didn't take it to heart before, and didn't pay much attention to this matter.When something happened, Ye Li had nowhere to go, he couldn't advance or retreat, he was nowhere to go.

Wang Qi and Gu Tong have already led the army to block the escape route.Wang Qi saw the Lujiang army entering the boat, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

The third step is to catch the turtle in the urn.

When he evacuated from Xilin Ferry earlier, he arranged for Xia Houhu to stay near Xilin Ferry.After all the warships in Lujiang County were moored and the army left, Xia Houhu personally led people to take action and tied up all the oars so that every warship could not be used.

In this way, the army of Lujiang County who fled to Xilin Ferry could only be defeated.

Chapter 521

"The order is down!"

Ye Li is not someone who can stick to it.

Knowing that his escape route was cut off and Wang Qi's army could not be stopped, Ye Li didn't bother to talk nonsense and directly chose to surrender.Anyway, Gu Kang has already escaped, and Gu Kang caused Xiong Tai to be killed, so it must be a dead end.

As the order was conveyed, the soldiers of Lujiang County surrendered one after another.Everyone got off the warship, returned to the water stronghold, threw away their weapons, and then knelt on the ground and surrendered.

Wang Qi came with the army. After looking around, he didn't find Gu Kang, and frowned.

What about people?

Could it be that he has escaped.

Wang Qi said in a deep voice: "Whoever is in charge, let someone who can speak."

Ye Li quickly stood up and said, "Reporting to King Qi, the villain's name is Ye Li, and he is a general in the army. Now all the soldiers are obeying my dispatch and arrangement."

Wang Qi asked, "Where is Gu Kang?"

Ye Li replied: "When Gu Kang was rushing to the ferry, Master Qu said that the king of Qi might have a backup, and suggested that the prefect should break through by land, so on the way, Gu Kang handed over the commander-in-chief flag to me, and asked me to lead it. The soldiers retreated to the water village. Gu Kang and Master Qu have already left with a group of soldiers first."

Wang Qidao: "Who is the Master Qu?"

At this moment, Wang Qi is a little curious about Master Qu.He set up a trap just to capture Gu Kang alive, but Gu Kang escaped.

Master Qu has some skills.

Ye Li immediately said: "Reporting to the King of Qi, Master Qu's name is Qu Jin, who is Gu Kang's adviser and holds the position of Master Registrar. Gu Kang's success today is inseparable from Master Qu's advice."

Gu Tong sighed sadly, and said, "It's such a pity, Your Highness, once Gu Kang escapes. When Gu Kang returns to Lujiang, he will resurface, which will be extremely detrimental to us."

Ye Li shook his head, and said, "Gu Kang has been running away for a long time, and he can't catch up. I am willing to surrender, and King Qi accepts it."

Wang Qi said, "Are you willing to surrender?"

Ye Li said: "I am willing, I am willing. Moreover, I know a secret message."

Wang Qi said: "What secret news?"

Ye Li said: "It's Xiong Tai's identity."

Wang Qi said: "What is Xiong Tai's identity?"

Ye Li replied: "Xiong Tai is the third prince of the state of Chu, with outstanding strength and great influence. Gu Kang is even from Xiong Tai's family. Well, he should be from the state of Chu. This news should only be from Master Qu and Gu Kang." Kang knows."

"The reason why I know is that on the way to Jiujiang County by boat, Gu Kang and Xiong Tai and I were on the same boat, and when they were chatting, I patrolled not far away. And with my sharp ears, I vaguely heard their discussion."

Ye Li said: "Now that Xiong Tai is dead, Gu Kang will definitely be in trouble."

Wang Qi's eyes lit up.

He had some doubts about Xiong Tai's identity before, but he never thought that Xiong Tai was the third prince of Chu.

This can be interesting.

If Xiong Tai hadn't been killed, it would have been quite difficult for Wang Qi to recruit Gu Kang.Today's Gu Kang was defeated again because of Xiong Tai's killing. At this moment, Gu Kang is actually in a dilemma.Once the state of Chu was furious, Gu Kang could not guard the city by himself, nor could he stop Wang Qi.If he still submits to the Chu State, he will definitely be dealt with, and his end will be extremely miserable.

"Gu Tong!"

Wang Qi gave an order.

"exist!"

Gu Tong replied immediately.

Wang Qidao: "You lead all the soldiers, responsible for detaining the soldiers under Ye Li, and continue to sit at the ferry. In addition, all the warships, untie the ropes that bind the oars. Next, this king will immediately pursue Gu Kang and not let him escape. Yes. You, settle the battle here at the ferry.

"Yes!"

Gu Tong replied immediately.

Wang Qidao: "Ye Li, the specific location of Gu Kang's division, you lead the way, and this king leads people to chase after him. As long as you catch up with Gu Kang, I will credit you with great merit. Not only will you not be punished, but you will also be rewarded."

Ye Li said: "I promise to complete the task."

Gu Kang is a grasshopper after autumn, and he can't jump for a long time.If Gu Kang had defeated Wang Qi earlier, Ye Li would have nothing to say.Now Gu Kang was not only defeated, but even the entire army was taken down.At this time, Gu Kang was not only threatened by Chu State, but also unable to resist Wang Qi, so Ye Li felt that there was no need to continue to be loyal to Gu Kang.

He had done what he had to do.
