rebirth [rebirth]

Because he had already made preparations for the battle, Rong Jingxuan led the army and set off the next day.

Among the 2 people he led, there were [-] Guangqing veterans. Each of these elite soldiers can serve two people, which is quite powerful.Lu Jiming and Zhong Qi were also accompanying him, and Dai Xian and Pei Qingyun stayed in Guangqing to assist Xie Mingze.

Although there are 1 people in Guangqing, they are all recruits.Rong Jingxuan knew that once they lost to Yekang, it would be easy for Yan Wentao to take Guangqing directly, so this time he made a plan to win or lose.

Running fast all the way, on the third day they came to the junction of Changle County and Yekang County. The letter soldiers have been sending messages back and forth for the past few days, so that Rong Jingxuan can keep abreast of the situation of the war.

In the past three days, Yan Wentao's army has entered Yekang and headed straight for Shanshui Pass.

Kangzhou City, the prefecture of Yekang County, was the capital of the former dynasty. Four hundred miles south of Kangzhou City, there was a former city gate called Shanshui Pass.

Due to the change of dynasties, this place has become a wasteland.However, the tortuous city pass of Shanshuiguan has been preserved, surrounded by mountains, it is a good place that is easy to defend but difficult to attack.

Before coming here, Xie Mingze told him the topography of Yekang carefully on the map. Rong Jingxuan knew Shanshuiguan very well. When he heard Yan Wentao went straight here, he immediately understood Yan Wentao's intention.

This Great Chen's general is really amazing.

Rong Jingxuan immediately ordered the [-] elite soldiers to put down their burdens and go straight to Shanshui Pass with him and Lu Jiming. The rest of the soldiers hurried on without any slack.

But Zhong Qi left the team long ago, and had to go to the northeast of Yekang to wait for Chen Qingyi in advance, and the best guarantee was to get the firearms and weapons in their hands safely.

Hurrying all the way, Rong Jingxuan didn't even have a good meal, so he arrived at Shanshuiguan at sunset on the second day.

At this time, the Golden Crow had already slowly descended, and Shu Yun was dyed with orange rays. Rong Jingxuan was riding on the horse, looking at the mottled traces on the tall city gate of Shanshui Pass from afar.

The fall of a dynasty is so desolate and lonely.

Rong Jingxuan gritted his teeth, he would never let Da Chu go this far.

"Since it's clear, let the sentinel go to check and see if there is anyone."

Lu Jiming ordered to go down, turned around and reported: "Your Majesty, this place is too quiet, which is unusual."

Although Shanshui Pass was abolished, some homeless people still gathered inside the city gate to spend their days chatting. Now that they have arrived in front of the pass, they can't see a trace of human habitation, which is very strange.

Rong Jingxuan pursed his lips and looked at the desolate city gate in silence. For a moment, he could feel the eyes from all directions gathering around them, as if they had nowhere to hide.

Rong Jingxuan swept left and right, and directly ordered: "The cavalry hides in the left mountain, the infantry goes to the edge of the city wall, and the crossbowmen follow me. The enemy has already ambushed here."

They are too late after all.

This time the enemy was clear and they were dark, but Yan Wentao's team was closer to Shanshui Pass, no matter how hard they traveled, they could not catch up.

Could it be that the geographical advantage is on the other side again this time?Rong Jingxuan gritted his teeth and quickly arranged a position. He took the crossbowmen to hide at the back.

He doesn't believe that Chen Shengzhi can always take advantage of the right time, place and people, but he has nothing.

If God really wanted to die, why would he and Xie Mingze be brought back to life again and again?Isn't it just to give Da Chu a chance?

We can live again, it's time.

Rong Jingxuan also took a crossbow and aimed it forward with the soldiers.

For a while, even the wind stopped.

The soldiers could only hear each other's breathing, so still, so still.

The Golden Crow slowly slid down from the sky, and at the moment when the night fell, the arrow rain from Yan Wentao's side rushed towards them like a large army.

Without Rong Jingxuan's order, the soldiers quickly hid in the bunker, letting the arrows rain across their heads.

Rong Jingxuan shouted to Lu Jiming in a low voice, kill the archers first.

Lu Jiming understood, and quickly approached with a small group of firearms soldiers, waiting for an opportunity to attack.

He is the commander of the army of the palace, and it is quite rare that he is the only one in the palace who knows how to use firearms.

In such a maze, the first wave of arrows may be followed by a second wave, or assassination by assassins.Rong Jingxuan focused his attention on the front, and sure enough, he saw the opponent's archer poking his head.

Just for a moment, gunshots erupted in the dark night.

In the dark night, countless fire lights flickered all of a sudden, like fireflies in the dark night.

Bit by bit, take away the life of the enemy.

It is naturally best to use firearms to suppress, but this time their opponent is not the defenders of the Guangqing camp, but Chen Shengzhi's most elite troops.

They also have firearms.

Sure enough, the gunshots started one after another, and there were cries of pain from the other side, and soldiers on their side were shot and fell down from time to time.

The night was getting dark, and the soldiers' sight was blurred, but none of them dared to light a lamp.

Rong Jingxuan was quite calm, and he sent someone to directly order Lu Jiming to take the initiative to attack in ambush.

Waiting is not an option. Yan Wentao has more people than them, and their own 5000 people have not kept up, so it is impossible to fight consumption.

Thus, the mutual assassination lurking in the dark began.

Rong Jingxuan let the archers who were weaker in close combat hide, and drew out his long sword and sleeve knife to join the team of secretly fighting each other.

The armor styles on the two sides are completely different, and the colors of the military uniforms are also slightly different. In addition to the bright moonlight, it is easy to identify.

Finally at dawn, Rong Jingxuan leaned against a section of the city wall, using a handkerchief to bind the wound on his leg.

Lu Jiming moved closer to him, and he suffered many wounds, but none of them were fatal.

"Your Majesty, the other party seems to have little left." Lu Jiming said.

Rong Jingxuan was taken aback. He fought in person, so he intuitively felt the strength of Chen Jun. The soldiers Yan Wentao sent to Shanshuiguan were indeed elite soldiers, not inferior to them.

Except for the outstanding individual combat ability of the old soldiers of the Guangqing camp, the rest of the elite reserve army is only at this level.

There are [-] veterans of the Guangqing camp in their team, so they should win temporarily, but they won't be so far behind.

You must know that Yan Wentao was sent by the [-] troops from the sentry.

Rong Jingxuan suddenly felt flustered, he couldn't explain why, but he just felt sad.

It was as if a needle was pricking him in his heart, making him unable to calm down no matter what.

"Your Majesty? We still have 3000 people left, and the other party should have died more than [-] people."

Rong Jingxuan's heart skipped a beat, and he said in shock, "No! Where did Yan Wentao's army go?"

Lu Jiming's expression changed, he turned pale, and said with trembling lips, "Your Majesty...they won't...go to Guangqing."

Rong Jingxuan closed his eyes, and called someone's name in a low voice: "Aze..."

"No, let's hurry back to Guangqing." Rong Jingxuan just finished speaking when the sound of galloping horses came from the opposite side.

Lu Jiming looked up, and his face was extremely ugly at the moment: "Your Majesty, Chen Jun's army has arrived."

Rong Jingxuan took a deep breath, he quietly listened to the sound of the horse's hooves, and carefully calculated how many people had come.

Three thousand, five thousand... eight thousand.The opponent's army, 8000 people have just arrived.

In other words, there are a total of 5000 Chen Jun who are not in Shanshuiguan at the moment.

Rong Jingxuan clenched the long sword in his hand, found a horse and jumped up, roaring: "Boys, the enemy army is coming, follow me to fight."

For him now, the only way to seize the last chance is to win quickly.

Rong Jingxuan reorganized the team, but only three thousand.

With nearly 9000 people against each other with [-] people, there is no doubt that it is impossible to kill a stone with an egg.

However, even though these Guangqing veterans on horseback fought hard all night, they still looked like wolves. They used various weapons in their hands and ran towards each other shouting.

The opponent's general was Yan Wentao. He calmly looked at Rong Jingxuan with a ferocious face, as if he was looking at a dying person.

He stretched out his hand high, and made an afterimage in front of the bright golden crow: "Soldiers, follow me to kill!"

For a moment, the sound of shouting and killing passed through the mountains and forests, bringing new life to this Shanshuiguan that had been abandoned for more than two hundred years.

Although there were few people, Rong Jingxuan had a team of wolves and tigers in his hands, so he was not directly suppressed, but was tied with the opponent.

The soldiers and horses of the two sides fought from early morning to noon, and the outcome was still undecided.

Rong Jingxuan naturally saw that Yan Wentao was delaying time, but he couldn't take care of that much anymore.

It was the first time he experienced such anxious pain since he was a child.

He was worried about Xie Mingze, he didn't know what was going on in Guangqing, whether the people in the city were safe, and whether they could persist until they went back.

He was really afraid that if he slowed down, everything would be too late.

Rong Jingxuan yelled, and cut off the two enemies facing him with one sword, and then stepped forward again, waving his long sword, as if to kill all the enemies.

Yan Wentao stood calmly at the end of the battle. He raised his eyebrows and looked at Rong Jingxuan, laughing and shouting, "Hey, are you a deposed emperor? Hey, your Changle is about to hate you forever, are you in a hurry?"

Rong Jingxuan only felt that his whole body was mixed with ice and fire. His body was cold, but the anger in his heart could not be suppressed.

"Hey, hey, didn't you grow up taught by old man Gu? How did you feel being cheated by me? You're nothing more than that."

Rong Jingxuan didn't pay any attention to him, just blindly killing the enemy.

His armor has long been smeared with blood, some are his own, and more are the enemy's.

Yan Wentao seemed very bored, he just rode on the horse like that, looking calmly at the Shura field in front of him, as if the fallen lives were not worth remembering.

"Hey, you're going to lose."

Rong Jingxuan raised his head suddenly, he fixedly looked at Yan Wentao, and showed him a bloody smile.

"Not necessarily."

As soon as he finished speaking, tens of thousands of troops suddenly appeared from behind them. The dust brought up by the horseshoes was like a fairy cloud. Those soldiers seemed to come from a fairyland to save Rong Jingxuan.

The situation changed in an instant.

There were 5000 more people on Rong Jingxuan's side, and Yan Wentao's Chen Jun was gradually exhausted.

Unlike Rong Jingxuan, he has no reinforcements.

Yan Wentao cursed inwardly, and was about to order to retreat, but suddenly a letter soldier rushed forward and ran to him to report: "General, Wuhe has rebelled, Your Majesty ordered you to return quickly."

Yan Wentao's complexion changed drastically, and he asked in surprise, "What did you say?"

The letter soldier thought that the battlefield was too chaotic and he didn't hear clearly, so he shouted loudly: "Wuhe is rebellious!"

Yan Wentao didn't even have time to think about it, so he yelled, "Retreat, retreat."

Chen Jun stepped back in an instant.

Chu Jun wanted to pursue, but was stopped by Rong Jingxuan: "Stop chasing, let's hurry back to Guangqing."

"Because of his trick of diverting the tiger away from the mountain, Guangqing is in danger."

At this time, Lu Jiming suddenly rode his horse and followed behind him: "Your Majesty, the letter soldier heard the other party's report just now. Wuhe turned his back."

"What?" Rong Jingxuan was shocked, but after a while he calmed down.

"Wu He has long thought of turning his back on it. It seems that the world is going to be chaotic."
