Chang Xun quickly explained: "Reporting to the general, this war was fought by Tie Zhong under Kong Fanxi's command. He took the sentry to find out the news first, but was defeated by the sentry arranged by Zhao Shan."
"After Tiezhong retreated, Kong Fanxi led his men to kill Zhao Shan's sentry."
"After Zhao Shan's men retreated, they laid an ambush halfway. A group of cavalry came out and defeated Kong Fanxi's cavalry."
"Kong Fanxi was unable to fight with the opponent and had no choice but to retreat."
"Xu Ye led the cavalry to rush out first to help. The cavalry under Zhao Shan killed Kong Fanxi, but did not fight with Xu Ye's men, so they retreated further, approaching Zhao Shan's camp."
A look of horror appeared on Chang Xun's face, and he sighed: "We had multiple ambushes. Unexpectedly, Zhao Shan also made multiple ambushes. There was actually someone from the Xuanjia Army ambushing in secret, and they killed Xu Ye by surprise.
"The Xuanjia Army and Zhao Shan's cavalry jointly killed Xu Ye. The opponent's number of troops already exceeded ours, so we didn't dare to fight anymore. We could only arrange for the troops to hide. I will come back quickly to report."
hiss!
Kong Lingyue took a breath.
She made multiple ambushes.
Made multiple budgets.
Unexpectedly, Zhao Shan also made various considerations and defeated her ambush forcefully.
Kong Fanxi had two thousand cavalry and Xu Ye had three thousand cavalry. Even though the loss of troops was not much, this defeat highlighted Zhao Shan's combat effectiveness, which was very difficult to deal with.
The war is not easy anymore.
Liu Fuquan also heard the sound and came, especially now that it was close to dawn, he had already woken up. Seeing Chang Xun's embarrassed look and Kong Lingyue's shocked posture, he asked, "What happened?"
Kong Lingyue gave a brief explanation and said, "The strategy of attacking at night has failed."
Liu Fuquan also frowned deeply.
When he thought of losing this battle, Liu Fuquan lost his trust in Kong Lingyue as before, and said in a deep voice: "General Kong, it seems that your command is not very good."
brush!
Kong Lingyue's complexion changed slightly.
Liu Fuquan's doubts made her very dissatisfied.
Kong Lingyue was never someone who was willing to wrong her. She said, "Since Emperor Xia is dissatisfied, it's easy to handle. I will immediately leave Chenliu County with the coalition forces, and you can resist Zhao Shan's attack on your own."
Liu Fuquan's cheeks twitched.
Is this woman Kong Lingyue a tiger? It exploded as soon as he touched it, and even threatened him to leave.
Before Liu Fuquan was defeated by Zhao Shan, he had enough troops and would really not care about Kong Lingyue. However, at this stage, Liu Fuquan could not let Kong Lingyue go, and he still needed Kong Lingyue's help. help.
If there is a fight, it must be fought but not broken.
Liu Fuquan smiled slightly, waved his hand and said: "General Kong, I'm just joking, don't take it to heart."
Kong Lingyue said: "It is said that people who are suspicious should not be trusted and those who are employed should not be questioned. Emperor Xia's way of employing people is really unflattering. If Emperor Xia is not satisfied, you can notify him at any time and I will evacuate at any time."
Liu Fuquan's anger rose in his heart.
He cursed Kong Lingyue in his heart.
However, he did not show any signs of it. Instead, he looked amiable and said quickly: "General Kong, you don't need to take what I just said to heart. Now that we have started a war with Zhao Shan, it is only a small defeat. It is not surprising.
"Next, I will rely on General Kong to fight against Zhao Shan. Since the harassment and feint attacks outside the city are not effective, we will stay in Chenliu County and use the city to resist first. As long as we defend, there will be no problem. Even if Zhao Shan There are countless soldiers, but it is impossible for a clever woman to make a meal without rice and break the county seat."
"In my opinion, we have a good chance of winning."
Only then did a smile appear on Kong Lingyue's face, and she said, "I hope it will be as Emperor Xia said."
Liu Fuquan said: "I said I will not interfere in military matters, so I will never interfere indiscriminately. General Kong is the one who makes the decision. It is estimated that Zhao Shan's army will approach the city before long, so General Kong will be prepared." "
Kong Lingyue said calmly: "I understand!"
Liu Fuquan left with a smile.
But when he walked some distance away, his eyes completely darkened and became extremely cold.
Kong Lingyue ignored Liu Fuquan's thoughts and arranged for Chang Xun to return to the outside of the city to hide, and further began to organize the army and rearrange Chenliu County's defense.
While Kong Lingyue continued to prepare for the battle, Li Buyi and Zhou Huhou led the cavalry until the morning, completely defeating Xu Ye and Kong Fanxi's cavalry. They ignored the escaped cavalry and returned to the camp with the escorted prisoners. .
Zhou Huhou handed the prisoners to Li Buyi and went to organize the army on his own.
Li Buyi counted the casualties, briefly reviewed the situation, and totaled the losses with Zhou Huhou. Then he went straight to Zhao Shan's tent and saluted: "Your Majesty, Li Buyi, pays homage to your Majesty."
Zhao Shan smiled and said: "How is the situation?"
Li Buyi reported: "Your Majesty, in this battle, we killed two generals of the coalition army. One was named Xu Ye, who was killed by General Zhou. The other was named Kong Fanxi, who was the last general of the coalition. Will be beheaded."
"We killed more than 1,600 troops and captured more than 2,000 people. The rest escaped."
"I have brought back the heads of Xu Ye and Kong Fanxi."
"I also interrogated the situation of the coalition forces."
"This time the reinforcements rushing to Liu Fuquan's aid were Kong Shentong, Qin Feihu and Zhao Yue each sending 20,000 troops. Kong Shentong sent Kong Lingyue, Qin Feihu sent Qin Cheng, and Zhao Yue arranged for Huang Danqing. "
"The leader of the army is Kong Lingyue. This woman is talented in literature and martial arts. She is very powerful. She completely defeated Qin Cheng and Huang Danqing."
Li Buyi elaborated on the information he had found, and further said: "Currently, Kong Lingyue's army is in the city, but there is a more interesting news. Kong Lingyue arrived in Chenliu County and arranged for two cavalry to hide outside."
"One is the three thousand cavalry led by Xu Ye, and the other is the three thousand cavalry led by Chang Xun. Chang Xun did not participate in the battle this time and actually hid. If I knew that he was outside, I would have to cover up and kill him again. , completely wipe out this force."
Zhao Shan smiled and said: "Outside Chenliu County, the place is open and full of hiding places. If you have to search specifically, it will take countless energy. Instead of doing this, it is better to ignore it. The other party will jump out on its own anyway. In addition, what happened After what happened this time, Chang Xun will most likely have to hide, making it even more difficult to find people."
Li Buyi said: "Your Majesty is wise!"
Zhao Shan said: "You worked hard all night last night, do you want to take a rest?"
Li Buyi shook his head and said: "Your Majesty, I don't need to rest, I just need to arrange rest for the soldiers participating in the battle. I am willing to follow your Majesty and immediately go to Chenliu County, just in time to use the heads of Xu Ye and Kong Fanxi to hit Kong Lingyue. "
Zhao Shan smiled and said: "In that case, you go ahead and make arrangements. Take the time to make arrangements. Let's go to the county seat."
"I accept your order!"
Li Buyi turned around and went down to make arrangements.
Zhao Shan was waiting in the camp. In less than a quarter of an hour, Li Buyi had made arrangements. Zhao Shan took Li Buyi, Zhou Huhou and Wei Fengqing, as well as Fang Weihu, Yan Zhuo and others to Chenliu County.
When Zhao Shan arrived outside the city, the army formed an array again.
The black army was so imposing that it was intimidating.
When Zhao Shan came yesterday, Kong Lingyue and Zhao Shan had not yet had a real confrontation. At most, they had a verbal confrontation. Now, it was a real fight, but it ended with Kong Lingyue's arrangement being defeated.
Zhao Shan stepped forward and shouted: "Kong Lingyue, I'm here again."
Kong Lingyue has been sitting on the tower, specially responding to various situations. Now Zhao Shan came to shout again. Kong Lingyue said coldly: "Zhao Shan, you are bringing people here now to attack Chenliu County?"
Zhao Shan shook his head and said, "Why did I attack you? It's just that I saw that you were as beautiful as a flower and a rare woman. How could I not express my gratitude when I met such a woman?"
"I left yesterday without giving you any gifts. It was really rude."
"Today, I brought you a gift."
Zhao Shan flicked his sleeves and said, "Come here, bring the gift to Kong Lingyue."
After the words fell, two soldiers were seen rushing forward. One soldier was carrying a shield to resist the bows and arrows that might be shot down. The other soldier was carrying a package and was rushing forward quickly. Soon they came to the bottom of the city tower and put down the package. retreat.
Kong Lingyue looked at the package and felt confused, but she also asked the soldiers to go down in the hanging basket and lift the package up.
The package was heavy. Kong Lingyue observed it and ordered: "Someone come and open it!"
The soldier opened the package and revealed two bloody heads.
These are the heads of Xu Ye and Kong Fanxi.
Especially since the two heads had been processed, neither pickled with lime nor cleaned, but retained the original bloody smell, and even opened their eyes, looking as if they were refusing to rest in peace.
Just like this, the moment Kong Lingyue saw it, her heart trembled, and she felt her heart was filled with panic.
Liu Fuquan was also on the side.
Unlike Kong Lingyue, who was in the army, he was bold, had fighting spirit, and had more tenacious willpower. Liu Fuquan was frightened in an instant, and he collapsed on the ground with fear, his whole body trembling.
Although Zhao Shan couldn't see the reaction on the tower, he smiled and said: "Kong Lingyue, are you satisfied with the gift I gave you?"
Kong Lingyue was so angry that she gritted her teeth.
Zhao Shan is so shameless and sinister!
She ordered people to put away the heads of Kong Fanxi and Xu Ye, pressed her hands firmly against the city wall, and said loudly: "Zhao Shan, do you think you can threaten me, Kong Lingyue, by passing through two heads?"
"Even if you don't kill them, as a defeated general, they will have to be dealt with if they come back."
"It's impossible for you to threaten me with just this."
"I'm here, Chenliu County is here."
Kong Lingyue said loudly: "Now, do you dare to attack Chenliu County? These are all such shady and cunning methods, which make people look down upon. You, Zhao Shan, are the master of a country after all. If you have the ability, you can attack openly." ah?"
Zhao Shan smiled and said: "Fighting on the battlefield, what does it mean to be upright? What does it mean to be cunning and plotting? In fact, it doesn't matter. Winning on the battlefield is the only purpose."
"Kong Lingyue, I still have some people I want you to meet."
"This is also a gift for you!"
Zhao Shan flicked his sleeves and ordered: "Come here, escort all the prisoners up directly."
