The news of Wang Zhong's defeat at Jialan Temple spread to the camp at the foot of the mountain faster than Ye Dangting expected.
Starting from the starting point of the southeast mountain road, no less than a thousand horsemen and horses have been assembled. The people who are in charge of the Eastern Capital defenders at this moment are the escorts that Wang Zhong arranged to return to the camp to keep an eye on General Wu Yeqi.
After the news of Wang Zhong's death came, the Wu Yeqi general took the initiative to find him.
He was asked to immediately lead people into the mountain to exterminate Guan Xiao's rebels without any slack.
Even though the guard was eager for revenge, he mustered up the courage to ask the Wu Yeqi general why.
After all, it was he who ordered the siege and not attack before, and it is he who now demands that the rebels be annihilated as soon as possible...
What on earth are these people planning in their minds?
But the Wu Yeqi general had no intention of replying, and just smashed the table in front of him with a wave of his bare hands.
Seeing this scene, the guards had no choice but to immediately gather their men and go up the mountain to seek revenge on Guan Xiao and his ilk.
In less than half a stick of incense, the defenders of Dongdu attacked the temple on the top of the mountain with a force of thousands of horses.
When they were still more than two hundred steps away from Jialan Temple, a young man suddenly roared.
"The Governor of Liaocheng, Hebei Province is here, who dares to take a step forward! Brothers, follow me to face the enemy!"
Zheng Kuan leaped out of the forest with a bow and a horse, and the bow string in his hand reached the full moon.
The guard who led the Dongdu Cavalry recognized Zheng Kuan at first glance as the man who had previously entered the camp to rescue Zhou Biao.
He already knew the accomplishments of the young man in front of him in archery.
The guard shouted: "The defender fired a volley of short bows to stop the man from firing his arrows!"
But Zheng Kuan obviously wanted to be one step ahead of him. The arrow on the bow string had already left the string when he made a sound!
Whoosh——
The feather arrow was extremely fast. If the guard hadn't drawn the sword quickly enough, it would have hit him in the face.
After hearing the instructions, the cavalry guard picked up the short bow from the horse and started shooting towards Zheng Kuan's position.
At the same time, more than a hundred soldiers poured out from both sides of the mountain road, and within a few breaths, they surrounded Zheng Kuan.
Facing the Manyu arrows, all the Hebei soldiers raised their round shields to block the attack of the arrows.
In almost a breath of effort, an unbreakable iron and copper wall was built!
The guard commanded again: "The rebels only number a hundred or so. All the soldiers will charge into the formation with me! After forcibly breaking the battle formation, we will completely annihilate the rebels!"
The Dongdu cavalry behind him picked up their spears and followed the guard all the way forward, heading straight towards Zheng Kuan's military formation.
At this moment, Zheng Kuan, who was in the battle formation, seemed to have fire blazing in his eyes.
He laughed and said: "These skinny monkeys are nothing without Wang Zhong... Brothers, they will die later. If anyone walks in front of me, I will take off all his clothes!"
This joke was like a bowl of the most fragrant wine, poured in front of the hundreds of Hebei soldiers.
"When I went out just now, even the general didn't want to die. Who wants to die now?"
"Who did we, Governor Zheng, learn all of his bad habits from? If he talks too much, who will he dare to marry in the future?"
"After coming here for a while, when I return to my hometown, I still have to worry about not falling in love with our beautiful girl!"
In fact, they all know that even with the so-called "reinforcements", their situation is still not good.
Those who can stop him here are the only ones with fighting strength left at this moment. The rest of the disabled people stay in the temple, quietly waiting for the final battle to the death after the battle formation is destroyed.
As Yujian's offensive gradually decreased, everyone present knew that it was the Dongdu Cavalry that was getting closer to them.
Just as the leading guard was about to speak out, a gap suddenly opened in the round shield in the center of the battle formation!
Zheng Kuan jumped out of the middle horse, already holding his saber tightly in his hand, and looked directly at the guard not far away.
"All brothers follow me and change formations!"
As soon as he finished speaking, all the armored men behind them removed their shields and took a step forward with their respective long swords in hand.
"Kill-kill-kill-"
When the guard saw this, he knew that it was not possible to demoralize the dwarf, and he also raised the knife in his hand.
"Charge immediately!"
After that, he became the first person to rush into the formation and rushed straight towards Zheng Kuan!
The two armies fought again, fighting on the mountain road outside Jialan Temple.
...
There are wars on the mountain, and the same is true below the mountain.
After thousands of cavalry attacked Jialan Temple, the general of Wu Yeqi had already walked out of the military tent and looked at the battle on the mountain top.
But not long after, someone rushed from the entrance of the camp.
Seeing that he was wearing armor, which was consistent with the general Wu Yeqi, the Dongdu garrison responsible for the garrison did not stop him.
The general was still carefully observing the changes in the battle situation, and out of the corner of his eye he caught sight of his subordinates rushing over.
He immediately said: "Why is it so reckless..."
The subordinate half-knelt on the ground, clasped his hands and expressed his intention.
"General Chu, a few days ago, there was movement in the place where he was keeping an eye on, and he is coming to Chaozu..."
"How many people are here?"
"According to reports from spies ahead, there should be more than 2,000 cavalry. Judging from the style of their armor, they should be soldiers from the pass area!"
"It's just two thousand people... you still want to cause trouble?"
The general's face of Wu Yeqi began to look ferocious.
Without waiting for his subordinates to continue speaking, he turned around and walked towards the military tent behind him, and quickly took out his iron bow and a halberd.
"After sending a message to General Chu, bring people here quickly. The defenders can't be relied on at all..."
"Yes, General Huang!"
While the two were still exchanging words, a very long shout rang out from the southwest side of the camp!
"Enemy attack!!! It's an enemy attack!!!"
The Wu Yeqi general known as General Huang had a look of astonishment on his face, and the subordinates in front of him looked to the southwest in shock.
"Why did it come so fast... It should have taken some time... How could it be the west..."
While whispering softly, the subordinate began to recall the secret observations of these days.
Since the beginning of the siege, he has led a team of troops to patrol the outskirts of Dongdu, and they have marked any place where the army can be stationed.
As early as six days ago, they noticed the traces of a group of soldiers and horses in the northeast direction of Chu.
Although they deliberately concealed themselves along the way, they were still aware of it, so they set the scope of their operations north of Dongdu.
And this morning, they found traces of that team again, heading towards Jialan Temple.
General Huang picked up the big halberd in his hand and walked toward the southwest of the camp.
He said aloud: "Hurry and report to General Mingchu, there are still people of unknown origin, gather people as soon as possible to help!"
After the subordinate responded, he started running towards the place he came from before.
First, Wang Zhong died, and then he mobilized his confidants to attack the mountain. At this moment, the camp at the foot of the mountain gradually became a mess.
The general surnamed Huang from Wuyeqi stood at his side with the halberd in his hand, raised his arms and shouted loudly.
"Since the enemy is attacking here, I hope you all will listen to my orders!"
After he spoke, the whole person began to roar, and at this moment, the sound seemed to be louder than the fighting sounds throughout the camp.
Ahh-ah-
The Eastern Capital defenders stationed at the camp at the foot of the mountain, no matter who they were, were shocked in their hearts.
After a short period of thinking, they made a decision.
If you don't want to die or lose at this moment, you must put down your guard against this strange general.
Only by working together can we dredge
Not long after, the Dongdu Cavalry Army, which was originally frightened by the enemy attack, had already assembled behind General Huang.
Everyone present was on alert and focused on the thief who was attacking from the southwest.
The next moment, a flag with the words "The rising sun" appeared in front of everyone's eyes.
Even the general named Huang began to narrow his eyes and looked at the flag carefully.
How come the flag of the rising sun appears here?
Just when everyone was confused, the man holding the flag in the bandit team shouted.
"I hope all of you, my comrades, will stop fighting! Today is different from the past... In Xijing, there is already a Demon Queen disrupting the imperial court. We cannot cause any more military troubles in the mountains and wilderness here!"
Upon hearing this, the veins in the hands of the general named Huang suddenly popped out.
He secretly thought, could it be that something happened in Xijing? !
After forcing himself to calm down, he shouted loudly: "Who is coming? Don't disturb our military morale!"
The person holding the flag is naturally Li Yanhe.
Li Yanhe spoke again: "Where is Wang Zhong, the guard general of the Eastern Capital? You can recognize the command flag in Li's hand!"
How could General Huang let Li Yanhe continue to frighten the army? He drew his halberd and pointed it at the opponent's front door.
"Over the years, there are no fewer than a few mountain bandits who have imitated my Yanyang Order Flag. Now you, a person of unknown origin, dare to imagine that we will surrender?"
Li Yanhe also pointed the flag at the opponent, with a fierce light in his eyes.
"Who are you..."
Because the person in front of him was different from the Dongdu defenders behind him, whether in armor or in overall demeanor.
He dared to conclude that this person was definitely not Wang Zhong.
If the guard general is not in the camp, in what capacity does he command the entire army?
As well as the constant battles and sounds of killings on the mountain, everything is telling Li Yanhe that something is wrong in the Cu Army Camp!
"Want to know who I am? Let's see if you are qualified to ask this question first!"
General Huang stepped forward with one step, and the halberd in his hand followed him and swung forward together!
Li Yanhe placed the flag of the rising sun at his side, and a close confidant immediately threw Chen Wuguo over to him.
He reached out to grab it and held the bright silver spear in his palm.
As soon as he slapped the horse's belly with his hand, his whole body ejected and rushed towards the general surnamed Huang.
Clang! Clang! !
When the two soldiers collided, Li Yanhe launched an offensive with the person in front of him.
Chen Wuguan was like a swimming dragon in his hand. After the spear tip was handed out, the gun body struggled up and hit the opponent's halberd handle.
The general surnamed Huang was not to be outdone, and with all his strength, he immediately blocked Li Yanhe's power.
The two of them exchanged moves for more than a dozen times, and no one seemed to fall behind.
General Huang took the lead and stepped back four or five feet. In this way, he forcibly ended the fight between the two.
"General Li has such great marksmanship, why does he need to imprison himself within the city walls?"
"It seems that you know Li's identity..."
"I never heard of you, Li Yanhe, before, but now I know!"
