Wang Hu can also be regarded as the core figure under the account of the king of Xin Wang. He is very clear about the deployment of Wang Zongshi’s west expedition. This time Wang Zongshi’s Liu Jiajun soldiers and horses and navy forces are responsible for garrisoning troops east of the Nan'an Army. , Put pressure on Gao An and Liu Tong, why would Wang Zongshi leave his post without permission and come here

"East of the Nan'an Army? There is not even a single soldier to the east of the Nan'an Army." Hua Zhonglong shrugged, and said nonchalantly: "Before the commander was ordered by the Lord to lead the army to the east of the Nan'an Army. , And are ready to expedition to Weixian at any time. Unexpectedly, Weixian was taken down by the Gaoan faction Xia Cheng and Wang Xiong first. And what did Xia Cheng’s servant say? They are exhorting thieves, if we dare to be free The offense proves that the adults have to assist the rebels. Damn! Originally I had to just mention the army and fight over."

Hearing what Hua Zhonglong said, Wu Liang's heart sank, and it was Gao An who was doing a ghost there. And the tactics used were the same as Xia Cheng's previous attack on Luzhou, and they had indeed colluded, but this was indeed in his expectation now. And Hua Zhonglong continued: "It’s just that Mrs. Liu disagrees. After discussing with the leader for a long time, he took us all the way along the tributary of the Gan River. Yesterday we happened to meet the messenger you sent, and we knew that you were I'm stuck here, so I came to rescue him."

Just when Hua Zhonglong was discussing with Wang Hu and Wu Liang, in the north of the city, Liu Jiajun, who had just retreated from Ji Qinshan, fled towards the north under the leadership of Liu Tong. Liu Tong, who was walking in the front, looked sullen and unhappy. It is no wonder that it was originally a stable battle, but he didn't expect it to end like this. In the past, Liu Tong paid a great price in order to wipe out the vanguard of this letter of the king’s army. If Wang Hu and Wu Liang really died in the chaos of arrows, it would be fine. If Wang Hu and Wu Liang did not die, Liu Isn't the gain more than the loss

Seeing Liu Tong’s appearance, Wang Kuang and others also understood Liu Tong’s thoughts. The three looked at each other. Wang Kuang took a step forward and persuaded Liu Tong: The vanguard of the Xinwang army repelled, at least it greatly affected the morale of the Xinwang army, and their elite main force confronted the golden people in the north. If you want to come, the Xinwang army will not attack again in a short time. My lord, this can be considered a success!"

Liu Tong also knew that Wang Kuang was trying to comfort himself. He shook his head helplessly and suppressed the depression in his heart. In fact, Wang Kuang made sense, sighed, and said, "I'm just annoyed. I don’t know if Wang Hu and Wu Liang are dead. Whether it is Wang Hu or Wu Liang, if these two do not die, they will definitely become our confidant in the future!"

"My lord, don't worry." Zhu Hao also said: "In the few rounds of offensive just now, if you want to come to the city's defense mansion, it is only a bit bigger. Wang Hu and Wu Liang must have been shot into a hornet's nest."

"I hope it." Liu Tong, who has always been optimistic, was not so confident this time. Since the official war with Xin Wangjun, Liu Tong has found that his luck always seems to be a little worse.

"My lord. As long as you walk through the woods in front, you will leave the Jiqin Mountain Boundary." Wang Yuanhua said to Liu Tong, as a way to change the subject, so as not to make Liu Tong worry about it all the time.

"Yeah!" Liu Tong nodded, looked up at the woods in front, and then at the blurred shadow of Ji Qinshan behind him. As long as the Jiqin mountain boundary is passed, Liu Tong can basically rest assured. Immediately Liu Tong also put aside all the troubles that he had just done, and shouted to the army: "The whole army should speed up and leave here as soon as possible."

The army quickened its pace, and under the leadership of Liu Tong began to pass through the woods. The forest in front of me is actually not too big, but just such a large area of trees grows on the only way. Although it is said that an official road was dug from the middle, it was blocked by the trees on the left and right, but the road appeared to be narrow. . But now Liu Tong was so picky on the way to retreat, so he simply took the lead, leading Wang Kuang and the three to go north along the official road.

Seeing that we are about to pass through the woods, as long as we pass this woods, it means that we have already withdrawn from the Jiqin Mountain Boundary. Xin Wang Jun will never catch up again. Liu Tong couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief, turning his head to his side. Wang Kuang said: "Wang Kuang, after going back this time, I still need to discuss with Zhao Guang..."

"Wow!" Liu Tong was only halfway through when he suddenly heard a voice. Immediately afterwards, I saw a few bright lights flashing in front of me, followed by a fire light, and the only intersection in front of the woods was immediately blocked by the fire.

"Enemy attack!" As soon as they saw this, Liu Tong and others were shocked, and their years of combat experience immediately made them judge. Liu Tongli slashed the reins, stopped his mount, and shouted loudly: "Prepare to meet the enemy. Prepare to meet the enemy! There is an enemy attack!"

It seemed to prove that Liu Tong was right. From the woods on the left and right sides, there were countless air breaking sounds, and shadows shot out, turning into sharp arrows, centered on the official road. Those Liu Jiajun soldiers. After this chaotic arrow, at least hundreds of Liu's soldiers were shot by the arrows. Even if they were not killed on the spot, they still screamed and screamed.

"Protect your lord!" Wang Kuang's first reaction was to protect Liu Tong's side, and Wang Yuanhua and Zhu Hao were not slow, and Wang Kuang directly encircled Liu Tong in the middle, and the weapons in their hands kept flying. , To help Liu Tong block those flying arrows.

"Don't worry about me." Liu Tong directly raised the big gun in his hand, and suddenly a golden light flashed, as if a golden protective wall appeared next to Liu Tong, blocking all those arrows, and at the same time Liu Tong also shouted to the three of Wang Kuang: "You immediately command the soldiers to deploy defenses, and I don't need you to take care of them."

When Liu Tong said this, Wang Kuang-san remembered that Liu Tong was superior to them in terms of skill. Immediately, Wang Kuang and the three rushed to the front, middle and back of the army, commanding Liu Jiajun and starting to set up a defensive formation. Previously, Liu Jiajun would be so caught off guard by this attack and fell into chaos. That was also because there was no leader to command.

Now with the command of the three of Wang Kuang, the army has finally stabilized its position. In the Chinese army, Wang Kuang even commanded the archers to start shooting arrows to the left and right, but the trees in the forest are full of shadows. I don’t know how effective the counterattack will be. .

"Where's the thief? You dare to sneak attack on your grandfather Liu Tong? You don't have to report the name quickly. I will not kill the unknown ghost under the big gun." Liu Tong saw the army stabilized, and he was relieved. . Only after just that round of attacks, the army of tens of thousands of people lost nearly 500 people. Looking at the soldiers who died tragically, Liu Tong's heart was bleeding. Brandishing the big gun in his hand, he roared towards the woods on the left and right.

"Hahahaha!" There was a laugh from the woods on the left, but it shook the ears of the Liu Jiajun soldiers. After the laughter, a bold voice sounded: "Of course I know you are Liu Tong. I'm coming to meet you for a while this time."

Hearing this unfamiliar voice, Liu Tong, Wang Kuang and others suddenly changed their expressions. These words suffice to explain that the other party is lying in ambush here, and the target is Liu Tong and the Liu family soldiers and horses of more than 10,000 people. It seems that I can’t be kind this time, Liu Tong sullenly shouted: "Since you are coming to see me. Then please show up. Let Liu Tong see which hero he wants. Take my life as Liu Tong."

"Hahahaha. I'm not afraid you know." A loud laughter sounded, but countless figures flashed through the woods on the left. A sturdy general with countless soldiers and horses suddenly appeared in the woods.

Those soldiers were either holding swords or bows and arrows. They stared at Liu Tong and the others. The general had a square face with two beards on his lips, and his face had a fortitude. It is Wang Zongshi, the general of the Xinwang Army, the commanding general of the southern navy. Wang Zongshi waved the giant sword in his hand and shouted at Liu Tong: "I believe in Wang Zongshi, the commander of the Wang Jun water army. Liu Tong, I have heard of Xiaoda's reputation for a long time, and Wang Zongshi will come to meet you for a while today."

"Wang Zongshi." Liu Tong's eyes opened wide, but he didn't expect to meet Wang Zongshi here. Although Liu Tong and Wang Zongshi never met, Liu Tong knows Wang Zongshi very well. Wang Zongshi was originally a bandit leader, but he was defeated by officers and soldiers and took refuge in Wang Zhaozhen.

Since then, it has been reused by Xin Wang Zhaozhen. Since Xin Wang Zhaozhen occupied Wugong Mountain and won the Wugong Mountains and Water Army, Wang Zongshibian has always controlled the navy for Xin Wang Zhaozhen. To this day, as there are few navy troops in the north, Wang Zongshi is still the first naval force to believe in the navy.

In the Army of Believe in the King, he can be regarded as one person below ten thousand people. Although over the years, Wang Zongshi, the leader of the training water army, has gradually faded out of the eyes of the world, but as long as it is a brainy person, he will definitely not ignore this general who is based in Ganshui.

If it were in peacetime, Liu Tong couldn't ask for it to be able to fight against a master like Wang Zongshi. But the problem is that now the army is trapped. If he insists on fighting Wang Zongshi, then the 10,000 Liu Jiajun will definitely be wiped out here.

Although Liu Tong is very impulsive on weekdays, but at such a critical time, Liu Tong dare not be careless. Gritting his teeth, suppressing the impulse in his heart, he shouted to the three Wang Kuang: "Zhu Hao. Lead the army to break through. Wang Kuang followed. Wang Yuanhua is responsible for the break. Don't want to fight! Escape from the encirclement is the first one. "

"Yes." Hearing that Liu Tong still gave orders in an orderly manner, it also calmed the minds of the soldiers, and had a backbone, including those ordinary soldiers, who were also morale boosted. Therefore, according to Liu Tong's previous arrangements, all the troops began to rush out toward the exit that was blocked by the fire, and the head was naturally the five thousand cavalry that Liu Tong had just formed.

These five thousand cavalry soldiers are Liu Tong's treasures. It took Liu Tong for several cities before he exchanged more than five thousand Qi Kingdom horses from Xia Cheng, and then he paid a lot of money to form this cavalry. Although the power of the cavalry has not fully manifested because of the short time, but in time, this cavalry will surely become Liu Jiajun's trump card army.

Therefore, Liu Tong is usually reluctant to send this cavalry to the battlefield casually. But the situation is different now. Only by the impact of the cavalry leading the front can it be possible to break through the blockade of the fire ahead. Seeing those cavalry rushing into the fire, more or less entangled by the flame, Liu Tong's heart seemed to be grabbed by someone, and he felt terribly distressed.

"Want to leave? It's not that easy." Wang Zongshi was taken aback when he saw that Liu Tong was not in love with him, but ordered to retreat. According to intelligence, this Liu Tong can't stand the violent generals the most. It stands to reason that he should be rushing over and fighting himself at this moment. But Wang Zongshi didn’t care about so much anymore. In any case, Wang Zongshi couldn’t let Liu Tong just run away. He immediately waved the giant knife in his hand and shouted: “Chong! Kill these Liu Jiajun’s conspiracy dog thieves. The one who captures Liu Tong alive will receive a reward of thousands of dollars, and he will be promoted to the third rank."

"Kill!" Wang Zongshi gave this order, and the soldiers who believed in the king's army ambush in the woods were all excited, carrying their own weapons, and killing them towards the official road, and the goal was naturally directed at Liu. through.

"Huh!" For these young soldiers who rushed up, Liu Tong, a powerful martial artist, was naturally not afraid. In order to cover the departure of Zhu Hao and Wang Kuang's soldiers and horses, Liu Tong simply swung the big gun to his right hand and gave a cold snort. However, they fought with the soldiers of the King's Army who had been culled.

"My lord. Hurry up. Hurry up." The five thousand cavalrymen led by Zhu Hao naturally rushed out of the siege of the wall of fire in one breath. Although some cavalrymen were still buried in the flames, most of the soldiers and horses were still rushing. Got out. Seeing Liu Tong still inside the wall of fire, Zhu Hao shouted desperately, trying to persuade Liu Tong to rush out. Not only Zhu Hao, but Wang Kuang, who was directing the army to rush out, also shouted to Liu Tong. If there is something wrong with the lord Liu Tong here, they will have the desire to die.

"Why don't you go out first, how can these little bits and pieces stop me?" Liu Tong was able to kill him, and while waving a large spear to kill the enemy, he shouted at Wang Kuang and Zhu Hao.

"Xiu is rampant. Eat me with a knife." A thunderous shout rang out, but Wang Zongshi suddenly rushed over, and the giant knife in his hand slashed towards Liu Tongbian. Wang Zongshi is no match for those little pawns, Wang Zongshi had already been promoted to the ranks of martial arts masters, and now Liu Tong has to concentrate on dealing with this sword.

"Huh!" The big gun shot horizontally, just blocking the giant knife, and at the same time Liu Tong snorted. After this knife, Liu Tong immediately understood Wang Zongshi's level, and knew that Wang Zongshi must not be allowed to take the initiative, otherwise, he would lose if he stayed for a long time. So Liu Tong pushed hard with both arms, and then pushed the giant knife out. Then, with the big spear straight, he stabbed directly towards Wang Zongshi's face.

"Drink!" Facing Liu Tong's shot, Wang Zongshi didn't avoid it, but just let the big gun stab him in the face, but he raised the giant knife and turned his backhand. Liu Tong's neck was cut. If this continues, the big spear will certainly poke a hole in Wang Zongshi's face, and Liu Tong's good head is afraid that it will also be chopped off by the giant knife.

On the surface, Wang Zongshi’s move seemed to have no defense, but it was a must to attack. How could Liu Tong be willing to fight Wang Zongshi? It can only take back the big gun, knock back with a backhand, and block the big knife.

Immediately, Liu Tong twisted his body, waved his backhand, and swept toward Wang Zongshi's waist with the big gun in his hand. However, Wang Zongshi still didn't mean to dodge or block, the giant knife, under the control of his wrist, pierced directly towards Liu Tong's chest.

It is also a life-for-life style of play. Liu Tong was stunned by Wang Zongshi's style of play. You, Wang Zongshi, is also a general who has been famous for many years, how he fought such a rogue. Liu Tong didn't know anything. Before he took refuge in Wang Zhaozhen, Wang Zongshi was a famous water thief on the Ganjiang and Yangtze Rivers. And this life-for-life style of play was what he had practiced when he went to Jiangnan A set of alternative fighting styles.
