Zhao Yun's brows didn't loosen because of this. Instead, they got tighter and tightened, and said, "I also know that just according to the scout's intelligence, I'm afraid the Xia's army will rush out of the city only tonight, and there is no time for reinforcements." Just now, Zhao Yun naturally did not forget to ask about the marching speed of Xia's army. According to the scout, the Xia's army is obviously also marching quickly. Although not as fast as the scout alone, the speed is not slow. The fastest can be rushed tonight. In this way, even the nearest town reinforcements will not be able to arrive so quickly!

Although this is the case, it is still necessary to ask for help. Even though Zhao Yundang wrote a few letters for help, he ordered his soldiers to send a messenger to send it out. At the same time, Zhao Yun also wrote a battle report and sent a cronie to send it to him in person. Jiangling. The Xia's army launched an offensive against Quzhou. This incident is not trivial, and Jiangling must be notified in time.

Zhang Xiao lowered his head to think for a moment, and then said again: "It's better to send the five thousand Qingqi out to rush to the enemy before attacking the city, and attack him by surprise."

Zhang Xiao’s idea really moved Zhao Yun and Guan Tianxia. Zhao Yun and Guan Tianxia looked at each other and nodded. Zhao Yun said: "This plan is feasible! Tianxia, this matter will be entrusted to you." Zhao Yun, as the economic ambassador of Jiangnan and Zhejiang, must stay in Quzhou City at such a critical moment, and in addition to Zhao Yun in Quzhou City, the world is only suitable for this task.

Regardless of the world, he clenched his fists and said, "Okay! Don't worry. Just leave it to me."

Guan Tianxia and Zhao Yun’s comrade-in-arms who have cooperated with Zhao Yun for many years, Zhao Yun also has a special trust in Guan Tianxia. After listening to Guan Tianxia, there is nothing that Zhao Yun could not agree to. When even handing Qingqi's token to Guan Tianxia, he said: "It should not be too late, the world, you should go and set off now. There is a Phoenix Slope 30 miles southeast of the city, which is the only place for enemy troops to enter Quzhou. You can take the first place and attack the enemy. A surprise attack can have a miraculous effect."

"I can save it." Guan Tianxia is now a veteran who has experienced many battles. He is naturally not confused about how to fight. The Phoenix Slope that Zhao Yun ordered is actually the best ambush in Guan Tianxia's mind. The place. After receiving the token, Guan Tianxia fisted to Zhao Yun and Zhang Xiao and shouted: "General, I'm going." After speaking, Guan Tianxia left the study.

After watching Guan Tianxia leave, Zhang Xiao said to Zhao Yun again: "General, this time General Guan ambushed the enemy, which may have a miraculous effect, but for the enemy, it will certainly not cause much damage. Subordinates of Xia Cheng There are a lot of capable generals in Quzhou. This time the aggressive attack on Quzhou, the ones sent must not be ordinary generals. According to our subordinates, we should still be prepared to defend the city as soon as possible."

Zhao Yun nodded in agreement, and said, "I also understand this. I have ordered the guards in the city to guard the city gates and be ready to fight at all times. Well, it's a pity that they have been transferred to the southwest. Otherwise, I can have more of them. Give out some helpers." What Zhao Yun said was Zhao Yiming, who was under his hand, and other young generation fighters. However, as the achievements of Zhao Yiming and others got bigger and bigger, naturally they could not stay in Quzhou for a long time. Now they have been assigned to various places in the south to hold important positions and have a bright future.

Hearing what Zhao Yun said, Zhang Xiao's eyes lit up, as if he was thinking of something, and quickly said: "The general wants to help. It's not hard to find. Did the general forget the few who were sent from Jiangling a few years ago? Young man?"

"Eh?" Zhao Yun was taken aback for a moment, then he remembered what Zhang Xiao was referring to, his face suddenly realized, but soon Zhao Yun frowned again and said: "Those are too young, I don't know if it will work. Besides, except for the youngest who stayed in Quzhou, I sent them to Shaoxing and Lin'an Hangzhou respectively."

Zhang Xiao immediately said, "Send that kid to use first, just to test whether he is as good as the adults said. And there are a few others, if they are really as the adults said, they have the talents of generals, then We must be able to come to help Quzhou in time."

"Okay." Zhao Yun hesitated, after all, it is a bit risky to reuse a little devil at this critical juncture. But now that Zhao Yun really has no one to use, it can only be as Zhang Xiao said.

Let's talk about the other side, Guan Tianxia got Zhao Yun's general order, and didn't dare to delay any longer, immediately went to the barracks, spotted the five thousand Qingqi out, and went straight out of the city towards Phoenix Slope. Qingqi is known as the world's number one cavalry. Although it has not appeared on the Central Plains battlefield for a long time for so many years, the strength has not declined at all. The Qingqi remaining in Quzhou City is even more elite than other Qingqi. Within an hour, Guan Tianxia led Qingqi to Phoenix Slope.

As Zhao Yun said earlier, the terrain of Phoenix Slope is indeed very conducive to Qingqi's surprise attack. Phoenix Slope is located to the east of the official road leading to Quzhou. The slope facing the official road is flat. Although it has some slopes, it is not steep. It is suitable for cavalry to launch an assault from the top of the slope. After Guan Tianxia led Qingqi to Fenghuangpo, he immediately ordered five thousand Qingqi to lie on the top of the slope, waiting for the arrival of Xia's army.

After about two hours or so, watching the sky gradually step into the dusk, from the south of the official road, there was a vague sound of horseshoes. The sound of horseshoes was like a steel needle piercing Guan Tianxia's body, making Guan Tianxia's whole person energetic. Guan Tianxia immediately shouted to the Qingqi soldiers on the left and right: "The enemy has arrived. Ready to fight!"

Those Qingqi soldiers were selected into Qingqi after rigorous training. Although they have been ambushing on the top of the slope for a little longer, for them, there is no reaction at all. After hearing Guan Tianxia's order, each of these soldiers lifted their spears and lay them across their chests, and at the same time put down the masks on their helmets, leaving only a pair of eyes shining with cold light.

It didn't take long for the sound of horseshoes to be getting closer and closer. Regardless of the world, listen carefully, I am afraid that the soldiers and horses here are not less than five thousand. And it must be all cavalry. Guan Tianxia's heart sank, and the so many cavalry that ran out of Xia Jiajun, needless to say, must be the Qi State Cavalry who surrendered to Xia Cheng in the first place.

Back then, this group of cavalry was the trump card of Qi Emperor Liu Yu, but since Qi Emperor Liu Yu was defeated and killed, Hu Zhuge took all the remaining cavalry and rushed to Xia Cheng's account. Now the Qi State Cavalry has been transformed into a troop under Xia Cheng. And Xia Cheng even dispatched cavalry this time, obviously it is inevitable for this sneak attack on Quzhou.

I changed my mind, Guan Tian Xia raised his palm, but did not give an order to dispatch, but fixed his eyes on the official road in front of him. I saw a faintly flying dust on the south side of the official road, which was a sign of a large number of soldiers and horses running.

After this team of soldiers ran closer, Guan Tianxia was able to see from the large amount of dust river, among the dust, there were many cavalry. Regardless of Tianxia's eyes turning, he shouted to the soldiers on the left and right, "Don't do it, keep it hidden."

With the order to control the world, the soldiers on Qingqi naturally wouldn't move. They stepped back a few steps, each finding a place to conceal their figure. It was dusk now, and the light was not so good. With a certain distance and the cover of the terrain, the soldiers were hiding like this, and the enemy really couldn't find their whereabouts.

Before long, at least three or four thousand cavalrymen passed through the official road mightily. The long line had a neat formation, and Guan Tianxia couldn't help but sigh. The cavalry was getting better and better in Xia Cheng's hands. And Guan Tianxia also took a close look. The general who led the cavalry was the Xia Jiajun general Yang Huai who had seen him outside the public security city back then.

Guan Tianxia's eyes narrowed, and a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth. He didn't pay attention to the meaning of the cavalry at all. He turned his head and looked to the south of the official road. Guan Tianxia believed that this cavalry was just an advance unit of the Xia Jiajun army and was sent to explore the way.

If the light cavalry made a rash action, not only would it not cause much damage to the Xia Jiajun cavalry who were also the light cavalry, but would actually startle the snake. Therefore, Guan Tianxia also deliberately released the cavalry over. His goal was to pass from here soon, the main force of Xia's army.

Sure enough, a larger army soon appeared in Guan Tianxia's vision. After seeing this Xia Jiajun army, Guan Tianxia couldn't help but breathe in air, because the size of the army in front of him was too big. . Guan Tianxia looked around, and the densely packed soldiers stretched along the official road to the horizon. Secretly estimated that there are as many as 100,000 people in this army.

"Hmph! Hundred thousand army. It seems that Xia Thief really made a lot of effort." Guan Tianxia is not an ordinary person after all. After a short period of surprise, Guan Tianxia smiled coldly, and looked at the soldiers left and right. He smiled and said, "Brothers! Let's have a good time this time. Are you scared?"

No one answered Regarding the World, but Regarding the World got the answer from their eyes. Regarding the World, he smiled, waved the three-pointed and two-edged sword in his hand, and turned his back towards the army of Xia Jiajun on the way of General Pomo. Look over. At this time, the Xia's army had walked nearly one-third of the distance. Looking at the densely packed soldiers, he raised his head high and shouted, "Chong!"

Following the shout of Guan Tianxia, the five thousand light cavalry officers took out their weapons one after another. Under the leadership of Guan Tianxia, the soldiers raised their horses and rushed towards the enemy under the hillside.

"Enemy attack! Enemy attack!" Such a big movement, Xia's army will naturally not fail to notice. With the shouts of those Xia's army generals, more and more Xia's soldiers turned their heads and looked at the sudden appearance on the hillside enemy. Obviously, this sudden appearance of the enemy caused most of the Xia Family's generals to panic. Especially seeing Qingqi's crazy impact, many people were frightened and didn't know how to deal with it.

"Fuck! Line up! Line up for Laozi!" A shout sounded, and a general Xia Jiajun was shouting loudly with a knife in his hand, but when he found that his shouting didn't work, he stopped. I just yelled with my mouth. He raised the knife and fell, and slashed the heads of the two stunned soldiers next to him. The general shouted angrily: "All his mother listened to Lao Tzu's orders. Otherwise, this is your end." This general is not. Others, Xia Shanyue, the son of the Xia family, were also one of the warriors who raided Quzhou this time by Xia Cheng's order.

Xia Shanyue's killing of chickens and monkeys really worked. Those Xia Jiajun soldiers who saw Xia Shanyue really started to kill people couldn't help but shudder, and they lined up to meet the enemy in accordance with Xia Shanyue's orders. It's just now that the lineup starts, but it's a bit late.

Before Xia Jiajun's formation was ready, Guan Tianxia took the lead and rushed into the Xia Jiajun's formation. He said "Hey", the three-pointed and two-edged sword drew a circle in the air, and in a blink of an eye the heads of more than ten Xia family soldiers who were in charge of the world were cut off. With Guan Tianxia taking the lead, Five Thousand Qingqi also rushed into the formation of the Xia Family Army's army, and began a crazy massacre.

"Asshole!" Seeing the army's mind that he managed to restrain, was so rushed by the enemy, and there were signs of a critical collapse, Xia Shanyue's eyes opened in anger, and he directly found the enemy's general to take charge of the world. Falling down, he shouted angrily: "A thief! Take a knife from Lao Tzu."

Xia Shanyue is also considered a very good talent among the children of the Xia family, and he has been guided by an expert with one hand, and is considered outstanding. It is a pity that the opponent Xia Shanyue faced this time was under the control of the martial arts master many years ago.

When Guan Tianxia saw Xia Shanyue's knife fall, those inverted triangular eyes flashed with a cold light of contempt. Then, when Guan Tianxia's wrist turned, the three-pointed two-edged sword suddenly seemed to be in his hand. Transformed into a long whip, it twisted towards Xia Shanyue's wrist.

Despite the fact that Tianxia's move was as obvious as usual, Xia Shanyue drew his hand from under the blade of the three-pointed two-edged sword, and even Xia Shanyue could clearly feel the cold light on the blade. Shocked in his heart, Xia Shanyue's eyes widened and looked at Guan Tianxia. He never thought Guan Tianxia was such a master.

Although Xia Shanyue was impulsive, he was not a fool. Knowing that he was defeated, Xia Shanyue would not die. He immediately turned his horse's head and ran away.

"Huh! The courageless rats." Seeing that Xia Shanyue was running like this, he did not chase after the world, but snorted coldly, commanding Qingqi to turn his horse's head, facing the enemy in the south, and continue to make an impact. And Xia Shanyue's run also affected the morale of Xia's army. Even the generals on his side ran away, so how can these soldiers fight the enemy bravely? Suddenly the morale of the Xia's army soldiers was low and it was difficult to resist.

"Kill--!" After turning around, Guan Tianxia became Qingqi's vanguard arrow. The three-pointed two-edged sword in his hand pierced the enemy in front of him like a violent storm, and he was forced to kill by Guan Tianxia. A bloody way. Under the leadership of Guan Tianxia, Qingqi sprinted a distance of nearly 700 steps. There were at least thousands of enemy soldiers who died under their hands and those who were trampled to death.

"The thief dare to do this." A violent shout suddenly sounded from behind. After Guan Tianyi killed a Xia Jiajun soldier with a knife, he turned his head and saw that he suddenly shot out from behind Qingqi, roaring while facing. The horse came here to kill, and the general ruled the world also recognized it, and he was also an acquaintance of the public security wars, the general of Xia Jiajun Di Hu.

Regardless of the corner of Tianxia’s mouth, although he looked down on Di Hu a little, he also knew that Di Hu was not comparable to that of Xia Shanyue before. If he were to enter Qingqi’s army, his subordinates would not be able to restrain him. . Immediately Guan Tian Xia took the reins, and shouted to the soldiers behind him: "You rush forward five hundred steps, and then you will come back. I will meet that guy!" After finishing speaking, Guan Tian Xia clamped both legs, vertical. Ma greeted Di Hu and killed him.
