"Master Wu. Liu Tong is here?" An indifferent voice came from behind Wu Liang. Wu Liang looked back, but it was Wang Hu who was on the head of the city. Since just entering the city, Wu Liang has not seen Wang Hu's shadow. When he saw Wang Hu at this time, he found a lot of stains and mud white on his body, as if he had rolled in a hole.

Wu Liang was stunned for a moment, and then immediately replied: "Yes. Liu Tong is here. But from his appearance, it seems that he doesn't intend to attack the city immediately. It should be the army who wants to wait for him."

"Yeah." Wang Hu walked directly to Wu Liang's side and looked out of the city. When Wang Hu's gaze shifted to Liu Tong's body, Wu Liang clearly felt a cold light flashing in Wang Hu's eyes. Wang Hu nodded, and said in a deep voice, "In this way, it is absolutely impossible for us to break through."

Wu Xiaoliang nodded and pointed to Liu Tong's soldiers and horses outside the city, and said: "Liu Tong's soldiers and horses far exceed ours, and they are all cavalry. If we go out of the city to fight, our army will be defeated. Now we can only do it. Relying on the city wall as a cover, Liu Tong must be unwilling to sacrifice too much, so he will definitely wait for their reinforcements to arrive, and then take down Ji Qinshan in one breath. However, I have sent someone to Yongxin City before, please ask from there. Reinforcements are coming."

"In that case, we have to bet on whose reinforcements from both of us come faster?" Wang Hu pointed out the most critical problem. If the reinforcements from Yongxin City arrived first, then Liu Tong would naturally be powerless. To resist the reinforcements of the Xin Wang Jun, you can only watch the vanguard escape back to Liu Jiajun.

And if Liu Jiajun’s reinforcements arrived first, with the ability of the vanguard army, I was afraid that the opponent would be able to take down the city of Ji Qinshan with only one charge.

Wu Liang nodded again, but said nothing this time, because Yongxin City is still some distance away from Ji Qin Mountain in terms of distance, and Liu Jiajun’s reinforcements are already on the road, but they are slower than Liu Tong’s cavalry. Some nothing more.

If you want to compare speed, Liu Jiajun’s reinforcements must come first. Both Wang Hu and Wu Liang knew well, but they couldn’t say it. Otherwise, the morale of the vanguard on the city’s head would be dissipated immediately. Then there would be no need to wait for Liu Jiajun’s reinforcements to arrive, Ji Qinshan himself broken.

But Wang Hu didn’t change his face, as if it didn’t matter at all. He glared at Liu Tong outside the city again, snorted coldly, turned around, and said to Wu Liang, “I’ll be recuperating in the city. It's all up to you to decide the matter." After that, Wang Hu walked directly toward the city in a stride.

Hearing what Wang Hu said, Wu Liang was taken aback at first, but he soon understood what Wang Hu meant. In today's battle, Wang Hu's command has no effect. Instead of working hard here, it's better to heal in the city. If the city is broken, Wang Hu is determined to fight Liu Tong for life and death.

Facts proved that Wu Liang's judgment was not wrong at all. By the next day, Liu Jiajun's reinforcements had already rushed outside the city of Ji Qinshan. The generals leading the team were Liu Jiajun generals Wang Kuang, Wang Yuanhua and Zhu Hao, but as Liu Tong’s think tank, Zhao Guang did not follow. With the army lined up, Wang Kuang, Wang Yuanhua, and Zhu Hao rushed to Liu Tong directly, got off their horses, bowed down to Liu Tong, and shouted in unison: "The last will see you."

Liu Tong laughed, and stepped forward to help the three of them, and said, "The generals are here at the right time. We can start to take down this Ji Qinshan right now." After that, Liu Gongtong pointed his finger at the Jiqinshan county town in front of him. With Liu Tong's temperament, being able to endure one day is also incredible.

Zhu Hao nodded, and said to Liu Tong: "Don't worry, my lord. I will wait for this time to bring 10,000 horses, enough to win this season of Qinshan. I don't need the adults to go out in person, and I will win this for the adults. After that, he gave Liu Tong a fist, and then turned around and turned on his horse. With a wave of his hand spear, he led a group of men and horses to kill directly towards Ji Qinshan.

Seeing Zhu Hao's actions, Liu Tong, Wang Kuang, and Wang Yuanhua all laughed dumbly. Liu Tong smiled and pointed at Zhu Hao's back and said, "This Zhu Hao is still the same, with a quick temper. But that's not the case. Now there is only one Wang Hu, who is only half-life left, and Wu Liang, who can only shoot cold arrows. I really can’t afford to fight with them. I just leave them to Zhu Hao to deal with them.” Liu Tong has already met the injured Nangong Xiong. According to Nangong Xiong’s judgment, Wang Hu’s old injuries have not healed and new ones have been added. I am afraid that he has little combat effectiveness, and Lexi’s injuries are even more serious. The possibility of survival. In this case, there is really not much attraction for a fighting mad like Liu Tong.

Wang Kuang and Wang Yuanhua are both calm people, and they are not as militant as Liu Tong and Zhu Hao. Since Zhu Hao has led the troops, they naturally have no reason to fight with Zhu Hao. Wang Kuang smiled and said to Liu Tong: "My lord. Wang Hu is also a rare general in the world. I wonder if he is likely to surrender? If he can serve the adults, my strength will be greatly enhanced."

Regarding Wang Kuang’s proposal, Liu Tong shook his head and said with a wry smile: "Impossible. That day Wang Zhiyi died in Yongxin, and Lexi died in Ji Qinshan yesterday. I heard that Wang Hu and both of them had A lot of friendship, he has already regarded our Liu Jiajun as an enemy, how can he surrender? Alas! What a pity. Such a great general will be compromised today."

Speaking of the last, Liu Tong feels a bit pity. After all, Liu Jiajun is the only warrior who has shot at him and Nangong Xiong. The rest, such as Wang Kuang and others, are also generals, but they have not yet reached the martial arts side. The level of Wuxue Grandmaster, even when compared to the generals under Xia Cheng and Gao An, is far from as good.

If Zhu Hao listened to Liu Tong's words, he might not be convinced, but Wang Kuang and Wang Yuanhua did not respond, and instead agreed with Liu Tong's views. Now that the Liu family's army is weak, if they can increase Liu Tong's strength, they will be happy too.

"Forget it." Liu Tong didn't have the kind of procrastinating temper. Once he waved his hand, he stopped mentioning the matter, and asked Wang Kuang and Wang Yuanhua: "What was the situation of the Nan'an Army before you came?"

Over the years, Wang Kuang, Wang Yuanhua and Zhu Hao have been responsible for the border defense between the Nan'an Army and Fujian Road. This time they were temporarily transferred by Liu Tong to help. Hearing Liu Tong's question, Wang Kuang quickly replied: "My lord. The situation of the Nan'an Army is all right. Gao'an has sent people to station in Weixian, the county seat to the east of the Nan'an Army, which just blocked Wang Zongshi's westward route. Now Wang Zongshi's army is trapped in Weixian and dare not take a step beyond Lei Chi."

"Yeah." Liu Tong nodded and was very satisfied with the situation. This matter was originally discussed by Liu Tong, Xia Cheng and Gao An. On the bright side, Xia Cheng and Gao An are both fighting together with Wang Jun Xin. Liu Tong's allies, but secretly, Xia Cheng and Gao An came specifically to stumble Wang Jun.

Just like Xia Cheng sent people to occupy Jizhou earlier, Liu Tong deliberately shifted Weixian's troops to the air, allowing Gao An to take the first step. Gao'an occupied Weixian, so Wang Zongshi would not be able to make many enemies against Weixian. It happened to start from Weixian to attack the Nan'an Army, but Weixian is a very important city. Without taking this city, Wang Zongshi did not dare to send troops to the Nan'an Army even though he had the courage to take this city. This is why Liu Tong dared to mobilize all his forces to deal with Wang Hu's vanguard.

"Alas! It's a pity that the two generals Huizhong and Chao Guang didn't wait for us to come to help." Liu Tong's face suddenly became a little serious, with a trace of sadness, but he thought of Hui Zhong and Chao Guang who died in the war. These two and Guang Zongshan and Li Qian who died in the early years were all veterans who had followed Liu Jiajun for many years. Now they are all killed in battle, and Liu Tong is also sentimental.

"My lord, don't be sad. This time we have wiped out all the vanguards, and we are avenging the two veteran generals." Seeing Liu Tong's expression, Wang Kuang hurriedly spoke out to comfort him. For Wang Kuang, he felt uncomfortable. After all, Huizhong and Chao Guang take good care of their new generation of Liu Jiajun.

After comforting him for a while, Wang Yuanhua hesitated for a while, and finally said, "My lord. This Wei County is also a very important city for us. Now that it is given to Gao'an, isn't it too much? That's not what Gao'an is. Good man, now Weixian has fallen into his hands, and I am afraid it will not be so easy to get it back later."

Regarding Wang Yuanhua’s question, Liu Tong laughed, waved his hand, and said: "Wang Yuanhua, I have had this worry about you before. But then Zhao Guang let me relax. Now whether it is us or Xia Cheng and Gao An Now, to put it bluntly, they are all innocent vassals, and our greatest enemy is the King Xin, who has the qualifications to be emperors. If it were before Qi Guo and Peng You were destroyed, perhaps Xia Cheng and Gao An would still want to annex With each other, expand their strength to fight against the King of Letters."

"But up to now, their idea is absolutely unfeasible. The Xinwang Jun has already possessed extremely powerful strength. If they hadn't had a million golden soldiers in the north that needed to resist, we would be dead. Now the elite and largest armies that believe in the king's army are facing the Jinren in the north."
