After hearing that Pingyan Town was attacked, Song Jiang froze in place with a stunned look on his face, and kept muttering: "How is this possible, how is this possible?"
Wu Yong on the side reacted quickly, woke up quickly, and said hurriedly: "Brother, it seems that there are indeed capable people in the Sui army. They saw through my plan, went against the grain, and raided our camp!"
When Song Jiang heard this, he immediately glared at Wu Yong and thought to himself, what's the use of making such an afterthought at this time? It's in vain that I have always regarded you as a think tank and entrusted you with important tasks. As a result, the plan that I thought was seamless was so easily seen through by the Sui army. , it’s really useless!
Dong Ping was still hating Wu Yong for remembering the past events. Now he was secretly happy to see that he was deflated. He hurriedly raised his hands and said: "Brother, food and grass are the most important thing for marching and fighting. In my opinion, now that our army's food and grass have been destroyed, it will still be better." We will withdraw our troops back to Qingzhou for the time being, preserving our strength is the first priority."
"Why retreat? Isn't it just that we are out of food and grass? Isn't it a big deal?" Li Kui shouted loudly: "There are so many counties around, just grab a few and it's over!"
Song Jiang's face darkened, and he scolded him again: "You black guy, what did I just say to you, you forgot all about it so quickly, and if you dare to talk nonsense again, I will cut out your tongue?"
"What Brother Gongming said is that I think this gangster should be taught a lesson!" Zhu Tong, the handsome bearded man who came over after hearing the news, immediately echoed, "I know how to fight and kill all day long. Do you think Yang Gao and you Are you equally stupid? Since he sent troops to burn our food and grass, he will definitely be wary of you attacking the city to steal food!"
Song Jiang sighed helplessly, waved his hand and said, "In that case, let me give you the order to withdraw..."
"Brother, you must not do this!"
Wu Yong suddenly opened his eyes wide, straightened his back and said seriously: "This trip south is our first battle to return to the Tang Dynasty. If we return without success, we will definitely be looked down upon by the officials in Chang'an City. We It will be difficult to gain a foothold in the Tang Dynasty!"
Dong Ping glanced disdainfully and said, "May I ask the military advisor, at this moment, is there any way you can turn defeat into victory?"
"Yes, of course there is!" Wu Yong faced Dong Ping and said loudly: "Young man Yang Gao thought he was sure of victory by cutting off our army's food and grass, so he must be carried away at this moment. But our army can do the opposite and take advantage of it. Don't prepare for a surprise attack on his camp, we will win in one battle!"
Dong Ping curled up his lips and said mockingly: "At the beginning, the military advisor also said that the plan was flawless and that he would win a complete victory. But as a result, Pingyan Town was lost, all the food and grass were destroyed, Lei Heng died in battle, and Song Qing was captured. Now the military advisor is again I swear to be honest, but how can you guarantee that Yang Gao will relax his vigilance when he gets carried away?"
Not to be outdone, Wu Yong retorted: "Dong Ping, you have always claimed to be the most powerful general in our army. When you sent out troops that day, you clamored to defeat Xue Rengui and Qin Qiong to become famous all over the world. Why have you become timid now?" ? Could it be that you are afraid of the Sui army?"
Dong Ping was furious when he heard this and said sternly: "Afraid? I, Dong Ping, have lived for so many years and still don't know how to write fear?"
"Okay, what time is it? Why are you making such a fuss?" Song Jiang waved his hand to stop Wu Yong and Dong Ping with some displeasure, frowned slightly, and said calmly: "Please be quiet and let me think about it!"
"Brother Gongming, this opportunity must not be missed before it comes again!"
Wu Yong seized the opportunity and continued to persuade: "Yang Gao is young and immature. He must have got carried away at this moment. The Sui army has won many battles in recent years. If Gongming's brother can seize the opportunity to defeat him, then in the future Become a prince and become a general, and glory and wealth will be at your fingertips!"
Wu Yong's words touched Song Jiang's heart. It has always been Song Jiang's biggest dream in his life to become a general and prime minister, and to honor his ancestors. After struggling for a long time, Song Jiang gritted his teeth and said, "Commander, I will believe you again. Send the order, and the whole army will set off immediately. Victory or defeat depends on this!"
At that moment, Song Jiang led more than 40,000 troops under his command, marched lightly and without stopping, and ran for more than an hour to a place about three miles in front of the Sui army's camp.
At this time, the east has turned pale, and it will be bright in the near future. Song Jiang knew that the so-called surprise attack at dawn would only turn into a joke, so he ordered a charge without giving his soldiers time to rest.
Boom, boom, boom. . .
The dense and thundering sound of drums resounded through the sky in an instant, accompanied by the long and thick sound of trumpets.
"Hahaha, children, please kill me. I must chop off Yang Gao's head today!"
As soon as he heard the sound of the war drums, Li Kui immediately felt his blood boiling all over his body. He quickly took off his shirt and was the first to rush forward, brandishing two axes.
"Ding dong, it is detected that Li Kui enters the killing state, force +3, base force 89, current force increased to 92."
"Brother Li Kui is really brave. I, Du Bo, have just arrived. How can I lag behind others at this time?"
Seeing Li Kui charging forward without fear of death, Du Bo, who had just been promoted by Song Jiang, was not to be outdone and rushed up on his horse brandishing a snake spear eight feet eight feet long.
"Ding dong, it has been detected that Du Bo has entered the leading state, the force is +4, the base force is 98, and the current force has increased to 102."
"Young son Yang Gao, if you kill my brother Lei Heng, I, Zhu Tong, will kill you today!"
Zhu Tong had a close relationship with Lei Heng. Hearing that Lei Heng died in battle, he hated Yang Gao to the core. Hearing the sound of the war horns, he immediately clapped his horse and rushed towards the Sui camp, wielding his sword.
"Ding dong, it has been detected that Zhu Dian has entered the brave state, the force is +3, the base force is 93, and the current force has increased to 96."
"Ding dong, Zhu Dian's four-dimensional ability has been detected. Commander is 85, force is 93, intelligence is 77, and politics is 68."
"These brothers are so courageous. How can they be without me, Liu Tang, at this time?"
Liu Tang, who had red hair and a cinnabar mark on his temples, laughed loudly and strode forward with a simple sword.
"Ding dong, it has been detected that Liu Tang has entered the brave state, his force is +3, his base force is 89, and his current force has increased to 92."
"Ding dong, Liu Tang's four-dimensional ability has been detected. The command is 68, the force is 89, the intelligence is 48, and the politics is 37."
Compared with the four people who took the lead and charged. Dong Ping, who usually regards himself as the most powerful general under Song Jiang's command, appears very low-key among the team, and has a different calculation in his mind: "Four reckless men, do you think that taking the lead in the charge can achieve the first success? What a joke, Yang." As an emperor, will Gao not have a few strong generals with strong martial arts to protect him? Just let you lead out and hold down those enemy generals, and I can take the opportunity to capture Yang Gao'er alive and win this achievement!"
The roar of war drums broke the original silence. After Yang Gao, who was reading in the Chinese army's imperial tent, heard the movement outside, he slowly put down the military book in his hand, turned to Liu Bowen and said, "Liu Qing is really good at this." Everything is like a god, all of Song ***’s actions are under your control!”
Liu Bowen slightly arched his hands, shook his feather fan lightly, and smiled without saying a word.
