But I'm a male fox

Under Xiao Wan'er's command, there was a cavalry force of [-] cavalry drawn out by herself. The personnel were capable and familiar with the terrain west of Silao Pass, so she volunteered to be the vanguard.

"General, my hometown is not far away..."

After walking for half a day, Xiao Wan'er led the vanguard to a village near a village, and a personal guard from here stepped forward to lead the way.

But when he got close to a certain level, he couldn't laugh anymore.

What appeared in the eyes of everyone was not a bustling village at the foot of the emperor, but a ruin that had been ravaged by fire and knives.

Half-collapsed pitch-black houses, carriages with missing wheels, torn clothes can be seen everywhere, and corpses hidden underneath...

The guard was stunned for a while, then rushed into the village, shouting everywhere, looking for the living.

At the same time, several Yebushou who were released in advance also returned quickly, presenting some clues they found to Xiao Wan'er.

"So, the culprit this time is not the officers and soldiers, but the prairie people going south to plunder, right?"

Looking at the bunch of crude arrowheads sent by Yebushou, Xiao Wan'er said in a deep voice: "I know that some grassland people are loyal to Ma Changping, but shouldn't they still be in Guanzhong? No matter how weak the defense of Guanzhong is, it will never be possible for a few months It was captured."

A lieutenant general said: "General, is it possible that they bypassed the switch and went straight to the capital by water?"

"Is it so hard..."

Xiao Wan'er thought for a moment, nodded and said: "It can only be like this."

She glanced at the guards who were still looking for survivors, and sighed: "There is no one left here, and they must have been dragged to become a strong man. Then Ma Changping must be preparing to attack the city!"

"General..."

"You go back immediately and report the matter to the camp."

"Yes!"

After ordering the messenger, Xiao Wan'er dismounted to check, and saw that there was a lot of horse manure on the ground that was still warm and damp, so she ordered to quickly pass through the ruins of the village and advance westward.

After walking for about ten miles, they saw a long line of people ahead.

Leading the way are more than a thousand sturdy Huqi who wear scimitars and carry bows and arrows on their backs. Behind them are hundreds of men, women and children, whose hands and feet are tied up with ropes, carrying iron pots of salt on their backs, crying as they walk. , From time to time, people fell down.

Even snatching the iron pot must be a prairie person.

"General!"

The guard just now had bloodshot eyes, and seemed to have recognized quite a few fellow villagers. He cupped his fists and stepped forward, excitedly saying, "Please, my subordinate..."

"No need to say more."

Xiao Wan'er interrupted the other party, took out her own spear, and shouted: "The whole team! Charge with me!"

"Order!"

At the girl's order, the cavalrymen under her command were divided into two teams, and rushed towards the last thousand cavalrymen on the prairie.

The galloping hoofbeats immediately aroused the vigilance of the opponent.

These prairie people were not good at it, seeing Xiao Wan'er's side was strong, some leaders yelled twice, and the whole team abandoned the looted supplies, while running forward to distance themselves, they bent their bows and set up arrows to scatter.

"It's you who's waiting!"

Xiao Wan'er was the first to charge, and with a slight smile, the spear in her hand released several bolts of lightning-like true energy, covering a distance of hundreds of meters in the blink of an eye, and hitting the back of the man who had just opened his mouth to command.

There was a thunderbolt!

That person's cultivation was only at the seventh or eighth rank level, and the body protection aura on his body shattered as soon as it lit up, and Xiao Wan'er's true energy pierced his heart to the point of chills.

As soon as this man died, the prairie cavalry immediately fell into disarray. Although there were still a few brave men who wanted to fight back, they were quickly submerged under the torrent of Xiao family cavalry.

In an instant, this group of people was completely defeated and rushed westwards.

Xiao Wan'er ordered her personal guards to find 20 people to stay and help the common people to settle down, while she led the rest of the brigade to chase and kill them.

The 3000 troops on both sides chased and fled on the plain, stepping out of billowing smoke and dust.

Ten minutes passed, after the enemies crossed a hill, Xiao Wan'er suddenly saw a military camp under construction.

A "horse" flag was erected at the entrance of the tent, and there were four or five thousand civilian men and infantry busy inside.

"General, there are many people on the other side, shall we still chase?"

Faced with the lieutenant general's question, Xiao Wan'er narrowed her eyes and observed for a moment, seeing those fleeing prairie cavalry rushing into her camp, causing chaos, she smiled sassyly:

"Chase!"

"Alas!"

Two thousand cavalry climbed down, with a small number of people, piercing into the unbuilt enemy camp like a spear.

Although Ma Changping's subordinates were numerous and powerful, firstly they didn't line up well, and secondly, they were rushed by their own defeated troops, so they immediately lost sight of one another and became a mess.

Screaming again and again, they also collapsed.

However, there are really three fifth-rank masters in this battalion. Seeing that the general situation cannot be violated, relying on their high cultivation, they rushed towards Xiao Wan'er, intending to come to capture the thief first and capture the king first.

Then......

He was shot three times in a row by the girl and tied into a string.

So far, among the enemy troops, no one dared to stop this chic female general with a white horse and red tasseled spear, and they all fled without looking back.

And just when Xiao Wan'er was killing all directions......

The news that Ma Changping appeared near the capital also reached Zhu Chongxiu's ears.

..................

Chapter 340 The first to enter the capital is the king?

In fact, Zhu Chongxiu discovered Ma Changping's large army long before Xiao Wan'er's men ran back.

Li Cheng sent out a lot of sparrows at the beginning of the army's deployment, overlooking the surrounding area of ​​the capital from a condescending height. It is impossible for him to hide the movements of the tens of thousands of troops.

Not only that, Nama Changping even took the initiative to send a messenger, saying that he and Zhu Chongxiu are the same righteous men, willing to join hands to overthrow violent gangsters, and as long as he avenges his adoptive father afterwards, he will return to the grassland and pay tribute or something …

Of course, everyone in the rebel army thought this was bullshit.

But in any case, the originally expected two parties, officials and thieves, turned into a three-party melee, which still caused headaches for the generals of the rebel army.

In the big camp, the generals started a discussion on this matter.

"There are probably more than 8 enemies, all of them cavalry, [-] of which are elite frontier troops inherited by Ma Changping from his adoptive father, and [-] are grassland people. They have already set up camp ten miles outside the capital, and are recruiting civilians to build A siege engine."

After listening to Li He's introduction of the basic situation, a general with a sharp ax shouted: "General, we must speed up! We can't let these barbarians take the capital!"

Fan Ying, the military adviser, said: "You can't fight for this spirit. You have to defeat Ma Changping first."

Zhu Chongxiu also nodded and said: "There are not many officers and soldiers left in the capital, and they have lost their courage. Even if we attack Ma Changping, those officers and troops will not come out to support them. On the other hand, if we attack the officers first, Ma Changping's [-] soldiers will be killed." It's hard to say what a horseman will do."

The reason is still very obvious. As soon as the boss finished speaking, everyone nodded in agreement.

Even if it was a three-way melee, they had to fight Ma Changping first!

After the decision was made, Zhu Chongxiu asked Fan Ying to draft a letter of false approval and send it to Ma Changping, which was more or less a strategic deception, and then ordered the generals to move the army and slowly advance towards Ma Changping's camp.

On the other side, Ma Changping was also scratching his head.

Compared with the agitation of the members of the rebel army, General Ma was a little panicked.

"Are the officers and soldiers at Silaoguan all useless? The surname Zhu came here in such a short time? Even if there are tens of thousands of pigs, she won't be able to catch them all in a short while!"

Originally, he chose to give up the tough pass and go straight to the capital at the risk of going straight to the capital, because he thought that the strong pass could stop Zhu Chongxiu, and he planned to get the match point before his opponent.

It's good now, nothing unexpected happened, and people came here ahead of time!

The four are at the third rank, how can I fight with others in the wild?

"The general does not need to worry too much, we still have a chance of winning this battle."

The person who spoke was a fat, bald man named Bartley, who called himself Changsheng Tianshi, the number one master in the northern grasslands and the number one shaman under the Great Khan, and the only one in Ma Changping's current camp. A second-rank monk.

He stroked the small drum with a bell tied on one side of his hand and said: "Although the number of bandits is large, they must be more afraid of the remnants of the Qian court in the capital. Will ignore it."

The corner of Ma Changping's mouth twitched, knowing that the celestial master was eyeing the close master of King Changliao, as well as the century-old experience in the division of demon slaying and dragon protection.

The problem is, it's okay to count on them to drag the fox around Zhu Chongxiu, but they will definitely seize the opportunity to take advantage of it, and he won't have the chance to take down the capital afterward.

Well, it would be better to say that since Zhu Zhongxiu had passed the Silao Pass steadily, his chances of winning were virtually gone.

It's just that only Ma Changping cares about this matter. The prairie people represented by Changsheng Tianshi didn't expect to gain a foothold in the south from the beginning, and they just wanted to rob and leave...

Thinking of this, Ma Changping was resentful, and secretly thought about how to get out after the defeat...

No matter how the two sides care about it, three days later, the two sides, with a total of nearly 20 troops, began to confront each other on both sides of a shallow river ten miles away from the capital.

As for the capital...

The king of Changliao activated a special formation, covering everything inside the city wall under thick fog, and outsiders couldn't find out what was going on inside. Zhu and Ma had no choice but to tacitly assign their own people to be vigilant. Then focus on each other.

On that day, the two sides exchanged a wave of letters, and it was confirmed that the talks would collapse and there would be no more gains.

In the evening, Ma Changping directly ordered the prairie cavalry under his command to attack Zhu Chongxiu's camp at night.

It was said to be a night attack, but in fact it was not sudden. Zhu Chongxiu spotted the other party as soon as he went out, and immediately called it a violent attack.

But to be honest, tens of thousands of cavalry galloped together, rumbling and shaking the whole land, like thunder rising from the ground, it was still very shocking... until Li Cheng released himself The face of the big fox.

Well, how can a cavalry charge with cold weapons compare to a monster tens of meters high?

However, he didn't enjoy himself for long.

Soon, hundreds of those prairie cavalry bowed their bows and set arrows, and shot arrows with whistles into the sky!

The high-pitched tones produced by the friction of these arrows in the night sky actually converged and condensed into a giant eagle with a wingspan of tens of meters!

As soon as the giant eagle appeared, it immediately pounced on the fox, and the two sides fought together, interrupting the flow of the small river between the two armies.

At the same time, the cavalry below also walked half a circle around the camp of the rebel army, found a weak point, and rushed in with some heavy armored soldiers as the vanguard—after all, they had just arrived, and the camp of the rebel army had not yet been fully set up, and it was impossible for them to resist horses. Incomplete.

"This kind of immediate formation is really interesting."

Li Cheng stood beside Zhu Chongxiu, sweeping the entire battlefield with his spiritual sense, and sighed softly.

But he didn't make another move, not only him, but also Liu Chen and Dugu Sannv were on guard everywhere, never getting involved in the battle.

First, as Nabatley said, they still need to guard against unknown masters in the capital, so they don't want to consume mana first. Second, Li Cheng is very confident that Zhu Chongxiu can win this night battle with him or without him .

As he expected, about two quarters of an hour later, the momentum of Ma Changping's army was stopped by the soldiers of the rebel army who were waiting in full force in the camp.

But at this moment, Xiao Wan'er, who was able to move freely, seized the opportunity decisively. When the enemy was blocked outside the second battalion wall, she took the initiative to tear down the defensive wooden wall, filled the tunnel, and led the cavalry who had been recharging their energy Recoiled out!

Under the condition that the upper three ranks are not mobilized, Xiao Wan'er is almost invincible.

The girl rode a white horse and swung the red-tasseled spear, like a sharp sword, piercing through the exhausted and surprised enemy.

Seeing that the momentum was not right, Ma Changping immediately ordered Jin to withdraw his troops. Tonight's half-baked night attack also ended with Zhu Chongxiu's victory.

However, in the camp, Zhu Chongxiu did not breathe a sigh of relief. She used her clairvoyance to look at the respective routes of the prairie people and the frontier army when the enemy retreated. After thinking for a long time, she suddenly said to Li Cheng beside her:

"Brother Li, don't you think that Ma Changping's fighting spirit is not very firm?"

..................

Chapter 340 Six Crushing Bureau

Not determined to fight?Uh... didn't actually feel it.

Li Cheng patted his head, all his attention just now was on the Gundam formed by the opponent's cavalry using the formation method, ah no, it's on the law.

After being reminded by Zhu Chongxiu, he vaguely noticed that the frontier troops that Ma Changping inherited from his adoptive father seemed to be not very active in responding to the prairie soldiers, and seemed to be conserving their strength...

He hesitated and said: "Ma Changping should be just testing tonight, right? I don't think I can see much."

Zhu Chongxiu didn't retort: ​​"I can't tell what the basis is, it's just my intuition... But this man named Ma made us sleep badly tonight, please give me a little reciprocation from Brother Li."

"Well, hey, I'm so happy~"

In Ma Changping's barracks.

The first battle was slightly defeated, although the loss was not large, but many leaders of the grassland tribes quarreled with the generals of the frontier army, accusing each other of being unfavorable in support, and turned to Rufeng.

This antagonism has also faintly continued to the highest level.

After Ma Changping appeased the generals, he came to the separate camp and asked Batley, "Master, you have also seen that Zhu Chongxiu is very good at running the army. advantage."

"I remember that there are still tens of thousands of cavalry from various tribes scattered in the west" to collect "forage, can you call them back? The enemy is now, we have to make a fist to beat people."
