After taking his seat, Nangong Xiong turned his head and said to Zhao Guang, "Zhao Guang, I set up an ambush according to the method you taught us before, and pitted Xia Cheng. Although we killed many people in Xia Cheng, we The loss is not small, and because Xia Cheng rushed out of the siege, the morale of the soldiers was a lot of damage. Therefore, we did not launch an attack on Guixi during this period. Today I plan to discuss a strategy and see how to make this Guixi City will be taken."

Zhao Guang nodded. He also learned the specific situation from the battle report issued by Nangong Xiong. Dang even said, "Although Xia Cheng acted cautiously, his temperament is extremely arrogant. This time he ate a meal under General Nangong. It's a big loss, I'm definitely not convinced, I'm afraid I've always wanted to find General Nangong to avenge the battle. How about we start from this point and let the snake out of the hole?"

"Bring the snake out of the cave?" Nangong Xiong didn't quite understand what Zhao Guang meant. Not only him, but the Liu Jiajun generals present here were all confused, and didn't understand what Zhao Guang was talking about.

The corner of Zhao Guang's mouth curled up and a smile appeared, and he said, "Hehe! We only need to be like this. When the battle begins tomorrow, Xia Cheng will be captured. Xia Cheng is the pillar of the defenders of Guixi City. If he is captured, The defenders of Guixi City shouldn’t be afraid.” Zhao Guang first explained his plan to everyone in detail, and finally he smiled, but his face was full of confidence.

"High! Zhao Guang, you are really smart!" Nangong Xiong and the others flashed their eyes, and gave a high-five applause. Nangong Xiong smiled and said: "Zhao Guang, your method will definitely be able to capture that Xia Cheng. Haha! I'll take a look at that time, he can still be arrogant." At the end, Nangong Xiong also gritted his teeth, obviously the last time. He still can't completely forget it.

Zhao Guang didn't care much about this. This defeat, on the contrary, would make Nangong bear fighting spirit. He smiled, and said to Nangong Xiong and the generals: "Since everyone understands, then hurry up and prepare, and we can act tomorrow."

"Yes!" Before Zhao Guang came, the generals of the Liu Jiajun were still a little hesitant, and they didn't know what to do next. However, Zhao Guang's arrival made everyone feel like they had a backbone in their hearts. Everyone found their goal, and it was natural to work harder to get things done.

After everyone dispersed, Nangong Xiong also smiled and said to Zhao Guang: "Zhao Guang, you came really in time this time! If we run to attack the city for a few more days at night, we will have to hit our heads. It’s impossible to flow. And as soon as you arrived, you immediately figured out such a good way. Ha ha! If you break Guixi City this time, you will be the number one contributor."

Zhao Guang humbly waved his hand and said, "Brother Nangong, don't laugh at me. Although Xia Cheng is powerful, he still has too few soldiers and horses. With your ability, it is not difficult to break Guixi City. I am. It’s just to help you speed up a little bit. It’s no credit. In fact, I’m not very advanced in this plan. I just see Xia Cheng’s temperament. If it’s that person in Guixi City, I can't hide this plan from his eyes." Now there are only two people, Zhao Guang and Nangong Xiong, in the big tent. As Zhao Guang said, he was a little distracted.

Nangong Xiong heard what Zhao Guang said a little strangely, and asked hurriedly, "Zhao Guang, who is that person you are talking about?"

"Uh!" Nangong Xiong asked, but Zhao Guang was relieved, shook his head and smiled: "No, it's nothing! Brother Nangong, you should also prepare early and keep your spirits up. You will be the best in the battle tomorrow. Important role!"

Zhao Guang didn't say that Nangong Xiong is not the kind of person who asks questions. Even if he patted his chest, he smiled and said, "You can leave it to me if you are done."

There was no words for a night, and until the early morning of the next day, the long-silent war drum sounded again, and Nangong Xiong led the army out of the barracks and marched towards Guixi City in the distance. However, Nangong Xiong did not give an order to attack the city, but stopped at a distance of about six or seven hundred steps from Guixi City.

With a big wave of his hand, the Liu Jiajun soldiers behind him formed a square formation under the leadership of Li Xuanyi and Bai Xi, and waited for them. Nangong Xiong was a few steps forward, squinting his eyes and looking towards the head of Guixi City. .

I saw a crowd of people on the head of Guixi City in front of him. After a while, a familiar figure appeared, it was Xia Cheng. Seeing Xia Cheng's figure, Nangong Xiong's mind immediately remembered the battle that night, and couldn't help gritted his teeth with hatred.

But the big thing is important, Nangong Xiong resisted the impulse in his heart, and shouted at the city head: "General Xia, the last time I hurried, let me see the general's supernatural power. It's just that the general walked too hastily. , Haven't I consulted the general well yet? How? Can General Xia enjoy today and learn from the generals again in front of the soldiers of the two armies?"

After Nangong Xiong's words were finished, it was obvious that there was a commotion on the top of the city, especially Xia Cheng's tall figure seemed to have walked back and forth several times, but in the end Xia Cheng's proud shout came from the top of the city. Said: "The defeated generals, Dare to shout again? That day I told you that you want to fight with me again, you still need to practice martial arts. Today's battle with you is meaningless, it's just a match for nothing. Those who are conscious of life and life should retreat early, lest they suffer the calamity of the sword!"

From Xia Cheng's words, he was full of disdain, and he heard that Nangong Xiong's forehead was constantly frowning. Nangong Xiong also knew that he was not Xia Cheng's opponent, but being so underestimated by the other party made Nangong Xiong's heart almost futile, and he wished to order the army to attack Guixi City immediately. And Li Xuanyi, who was behind Nangongxiong, met, and quickly stepped forward to Nangongxiong and said in a low voice: "The general should calm down, and the big things are important. Don't forget General Zhao's plan."

Li Xuanyi mentioned Zhao Guang, which allowed Nangong Xiong to forcibly suppress the anger in his heart, and his face was slightly relieved, then he shouted at the city head: "General Xia's eloquence is so good, and his martial arts are so powerful, I admire him. It's a pity that this strategy is a bit worse. Otherwise, how could I think of a stupid way of attacking our military camp at night? My general Liu Jiajun and I Nangong Xiong, although not famous generals, are still vigilant. Ha ha. General Xia, you have made a mistake."

Nangong Xiong deliberately mentioned that Xia Cheng attacked the camp that night, just to anger Xia Cheng. According to Zhao Guang's analysis yesterday, although Xia Cheng succeeded in breaking through the encirclement, Xia Cheng, who has always been arrogant and arrogant, must have been unconvinced in his heart after suffering such a big loss. It happened to be an excuse to anger Xia Cheng. As long as Xia Cheng can be excited out of the city, the plan will be more than half a success.

Sure enough, after Nangong Xiong finished speaking, it was obvious that there was another riot on the top of the city, and it seemed that we could still vaguely hear the quarrel coming from the top of the city.

Nangong Xiong couldn't help but applauded secretly. He struck the iron while it was hot and continued to shout loudly: "General Xia, I once heard from officers and soldiers that Fujian Road Scripture slightly leans on the general as his right arm, and can only make a decision after discussing everything with the general. Just look at it now. Coming, the generals are no more than that. If the Fujian Provincial Route Administration still relies on the generals so much, it is better to surrender to our adults as soon as possible to avoid the end of defeat."

Soon, I heard a loud noise from the gate of Guixi City, but the gate was slowly opened. Thousands of people ran out of the city directly, and the one who rushed to the front was exactly Xia Cheng was angry.

I saw Xia Cheng taking the lead, rushing to the forefront, with the long-handled Mo Daoyao in his hand to guide Gong Xiong, shouting loudly: "The Liu Jiajun dog thief is so unobstructed, today Xia took the top of your item. This is also the case. You take the blame." After that, Xia Cheng carried the long-handled Modao upside down, patted the horse and ran towards Nangong Xiong.

Nangong Xiong saw that Xia Cheng was finally out of town, and the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, and he turned around and made a gesture to Li Xuanyi and Bai Xi behind him. Li Xuanyi and Bai Xi nodded knowingly when they saw each other, Dang Even with the soldiers and horses behind them, they scattered directly. At first glance, it looked a bit like the army was defeated, and Nangong Xiong himself snorted softly, but didn't mean to fight Xia Cheng, but turned his horse's head, patted the horse and ran back.

Seeing Nangong Xiong running away like this, Xia Cheng in the back also yelled: "Courageless Rats! Didn't you just yell so hard? Now you are so timid? Stop! Come and fight me for three hundred rounds. "

Hearing Xia Cheng's cursing behind him, Nangong Xiong sneered while running. Zhao Guang's plan was to get Xia Cheng out of the city to chase Nangong Xiong. At this time, Li Xuanyi and Bai Xi also secretly spared from both sides, and directly cut off Xia Cheng's back road. At that time, heavy soldiers surrounded Xia Cheng, and even if Xia Cheng's troubles were serious, he would never want to escape this time.

While thinking about it, Nangong Xiong also used the corner of his eye to watch the movements of Li Xuanyi and Bai Xi on both sides. As long as the two of them quietly completed the encirclement, it was time for him to turn around. Nangong Xiong was a little impatient now. Seeing Xia Cheng's surprised look.

At the same time, at the gate of the Liu Family Army Barracks, Zhao Guangzheng took the remaining small group of soldiers and looked towards the battlefield. The current situation was the result of the negotiation made by Zhao Guang yesterday. It seems that everything is proceeding in accordance with Zhao Guang’s ideas, but I don’t know why. Looking at Xia Cheng who is chasing after Nangong Xiong, Zhao Guang Suddenly there was an inexplicable ominousness in his heart, as if there was something he hadn't calculated.

At this moment, behind Zhao Guang, a soldier smiled and said to his comrades around him: "Look, what kind of shit Xia Cheng is now going to the pocket designed by the general. I heard that he is still a famous general. Hahahaha! Even with this ability, you can be considered a famous player?"

The soldier just joked casually, attracting the agreement of his comrades around him, but he didn't know that his few words made Zhao Guang's heart tremble. He looked suspiciously on the battlefield. At this moment, on both sides of the battlefield, Li Xuanyi and Bai Xi had quietly walked around with their own soldiers and horses, ready to attack the center of the battlefield at any time, and completely sealed Xia Cheng’s retreat. . And Xia Cheng still chased Nangong Xiong closely, rushing towards the preset ambush circle step by step.

All this seemed to proceed very smoothly, and only waited for Xia Cheng to travel a little further before he could begin to act. But when Zhao Guang saw all this, his face immediately turned pale, and he hurriedly exclaimed: "No! We have a plan to send a few generals to act immediately!"

"Huh?" Hearing Zhao Guang's words, the soldiers on the side were immediately dumbfounded. Now Xia Cheng has not rushed into the preset encirclement circle. If he acted at this time, he would not be able to completely trap Xia Cheng. ! But Zhao Guang didn't have the thought to explain, and shouted at the stunned soldiers with a look of anxious expression: "What are you still doing here? Go and send the order!"

"Yes!" Zhao Guang, who is always full of spring breeze, is also angry. The soldiers nodded and said yes, and followed Zhao Guang's orders.

But at this moment, Xia Cheng, who was still chasing Nangong Xiong with an angry face before, suddenly pulled the reins and stopped. I saw that Xia Cheng looked at the Nangong Xiong who was still burying his head in front of him, and suddenly laughed and shouted: "Liu Jiajun dog thief, do you want Xia to be fooled by this trick? Huh! Dreaming." After all, the long-handled Modao in Xia Cheng's hand moved high, and immediately attracted a burst of killings from the gate of Guixi City.

"Crap!" Seeing the sudden change on the battlefield, Zhao Guang's face turned pale again, and he hurriedly shouted to the soldiers on the left and right: "Quick! Mingjin retreat! First Mingjin retreat!"

As soon as Zhao Guang’s voice fell, Xia Cheng turned his horse's head, but turned to Li Xuanyi who was rushing towards the gate of the city, and at the gate of Guixi, a young warrior was holding a big sword. , With the thousands of soldiers and horses, also drove out from the gate of the city, and at the same time rushed towards Li Xuanyi.

At this moment, the encirclement has not yet formed. In order to make the performance realistic, the soldiers of Liu Jiajun scattered widely, waiting for Li Xuanyi and Bai Xi to cut off Xia Cheng's retreat, and then gathered again. But now things have suddenly changed like this. Faced with the group attacking enemy forces, the Liu Jiajun soldiers were caught off guard, and all of them were stunned and not knowing what to do.

Nangong Xiong is also stupid. It shouldn't have been that way. Shouldn't it be that he led Xia Cheng into the encirclement, and then captured him directly in order to avenge his last knife? How could it suddenly become like this

But at this moment, a shout came from behind Nangong Xiong, and Nangong Xiong subconsciously turned his head to take a look, but Zhao Guangzheng hurriedly rushed over, shouting at Nangong Xiong as he rushed over: "Brother Nangong, hurry up and save Xuan Yi. We are all fooled! The enemy's purpose is Xuan Yi."

After being called by Zhao Guang, Nangong Xiong was so relieved. He turned his head and looked at it. Sure enough, whether it was Xia Cheng or Xia Wu who rushed out of the city, they had only one goal, and they were carrying soldiers. Ma is about to cut off Li Xuanyi on the back road of Xia Cheng. Obviously Li Xuanyi didn't expect that things would suddenly turn out like this. He was clearly a hunter at the beginning and was staring at his prey. How could he become a prey from a hunter in a blink of an eye

"Look at the sword!" Li Xuanyi was stunned, and Xia Cheng had already killed Li Xuanyi at this moment, and saw that Xia Cheng slashed the soldiers of the Liu family who were about to protect Li Xuanyi with a single knife, and raised his head with a pair of red copper bells. Staring at Li Xuanyi with big eyes. Those eyes opened wide suddenly, gleaming with endless cold light. Immediately afterwards, I saw Xia Cheng holding the long-handled Modao upside down, but he slashed it from under his feet upside down with his backhand.

This knife was blocked by Nangong Xiong when he attacked the camp last time, but this time the target was Li Xuanyi. Feeling the chill coming from in front of him, Li Xuanyi couldn't help but shudder, and then he was relieved, and the first thing that could be relieved, he faced Xia Cheng's killing intent.

Li Xuanyi subconsciously raised the spear in his hand and placed it directly on top of his head, intending to use his spear to block Xia Cheng's long-handled Modao. And at this time, Nangong Xiong, who was coming here, saw him and hurriedly exclaimed, "Be careful, general!"

If anyone in the room was most familiar with Xia Cheng's sword technique, then it would undoubtedly be Nangong Xiong. In the last battle, Nangong Xiong also encountered Xia Cheng's murderous knife, but thanks to the double spears made of special fine iron in his hand, Xia Cheng's knife was dangerously blocked. Afterwards, Nangong Xiong also deliberately inspected his double guns. Even the double guns that can not be cut with an axe usually have a few more white marks, which shows the power of Xia Cheng's knife.

Although Li Xuanyi's skill is good, the long spear in his hand is nothing but ordinary. How can such a spear withstand Xia Cheng's long-handled sword? That's why Nangong Xiong hurriedly warned Li Xuanyi, but Nangong Xiong's warning was too late.

I saw Xia Cheng's sword fall heavily. Although there was a clear crash on Li Xuanyi's spear, the spear in Li Xuanyi's hand was chopped into two by Xia Cheng. The incision is as smooth as a mirror, showing how strong this knife is!

But after the long-handled Modao cut off Li Xuanyi's spear, it still slashed. The long-handled Modao fell heavily on Li Xuanyi's shoulder, but did not stop at all. I saw the long-handled Modao slammed into Li Xuanyi's body, causing Li Xuanyi to scream in pain.

Xia Cheng gripped the long-handled Moknife tightly and slid directly down. The long-handled Moknife instantly cut a blood out of Li Xuanyi’s body, and the blood spurted directly from Li Xuanyi’s chest like a fountain. Li Xuanyi screamed, unable to grasp the spear that had broken into two hands, and fell on his back.

"Xuan Yi!" Seeing that Li Xuan Yi was chopped down by Xia Cheng, Bai Xi, who had a good relationship with Li Xuan Yi, was so angry that his eyes were cracked. With a roar, he rushed to avenge Li Xuan Yi.

"Bai Xi is back!" At this moment, there was a loud shout, but Nangong Xiong stopped Bai Xi. Li Xuanyi's death in battle was also very painful for Nangong Xiong, but with Bai Xi's skill, he could only rush to death at this time.

Nangong Xiong could only shout Bai Xi and began to regroup. Zhao Guang's plan obviously failed, and only a hard attack was left. Although Bai Xi was not reconciled, he had to obey Nangong Xiong's orders and retreated with the Liu Jiajun soldiers beside him.

But after Xia Cheng beheaded Li Xuanyi, he turned his horse's head and looked at Nangong Xiong and others coldly, and was about to step forward to fight again, but at this time, from the city behind Xia Cheng, a voice came: "General Xia Cheng don't want to be impulsive, just step back and talk about it."

This sound made people on the battlefield subconsciously look towards the top of the city, and Zhao Guang, who was behind Nangong Xiong, could not help but tremble when he heard this voice. He smiled bitterly and looked towards the top of the city and saw only the top of the city. Above, a figure stood proudly, although it was a little thin and weak compared to the surrounding soldiers, but it was apparently elegant, and it was the person Zhao Guang was most unwilling to see here.

Looking at each other in the distance, Tong Wenbo smiled and nodded to Zhao Guang in the distance, and then shouted at Xia Cheng Lang: "General Xia Cheng, the enemy is a few, but it is not worth it to fight with them now. The general is better. Return to the city."

Tong Wenbo helped Gao'an win the Fujian Road, and his official position was higher than himself, so Xia Cheng still admired Tong Wenbo's. Even if Xia Chengdang pulled on the reins, taking Xia Wu and other guards and soldiers with him, he retreated into the city with such a big swing. On the other hand, on Nangong Xiong's side, although he was determined to pursue, now the army is scattered and cannot be organized at all. If he rushes forward, he will only end up like Li Xuanyi.
