"Where to go?"

Zhang Xiu had just escaped from Zheng Huai and was secretly rejoicing, but unexpectedly there was a thunderous sound in his ears, and a long knife broke through the wind and struck Zhang Xiu, which made Zhang Xiu's hair stand on end.

With no time to think about it, Zhang Xiu hurriedly raised his gun to parry, and the sword and gun collided with each other with a loud and powerful collision.

"Who are you?"

Zhang Xiu tightened his grip on the spear and looked at the man in front of him warily.

"Nan'an Pound!"

Pang De's expression remained unchanged, and while answering, he slashed down with his sword.

"Ding dong, it has been detected that Pang De enters the brave state, the force is +5, the base force is 98, and the current force has increased to 103."

Zhang Xiu immediately used the Hundred Birds Chaofeng Spear to meet him. The swords and guns collided, and another twenty rounds passed.

Just as Zheng Huai expected, Zhang Xiu's control of the Hundred Birds Chaofeng Spear has not yet reached the level of proficiency. His moves are rigid and inflexible. At first, it was indeed because of the exquisiteness of the marksmanship that people were caught off guard, but after more than twenty rounds, Pound Having adapted to this set of marksmanship and no longer being disturbed, Zhang Xiu's force value dropped back to 101 again.

"Hahaha, as expected of General Pang, traitor, let's die!"

It was raining all night, and Pang De had already seen through Zhang Xiu's shooting skills. His sword was like the wind, and his attack became more fierce. Zhang Xiu was already at a disadvantage. Over there, Zheng Huai rode up again, laughed loudly, and beat him with his stick.

"My defeated general, An Daan is so rampant!"

Zhang Xiu roared loudly, raised his gun and stabbed Zheng Huai.

"How dare you insult me, you little thief!"

When Zheng Huai heard this, he immediately flew into a rage. Zhang Xiu just forced him back and left. How could he say that he had lost before the outcome was decided? Anger surged to his forehead, and he swept out the iron rod in his hand with a roar. , and went straight to Zhang Xiu's waist.

Zhang Xiu and Zheng Huai had just fought each other once, and they knew that this man was extremely powerful. If he were to hit him with a stick, he would end up with a broken bone and die. He immediately turned his spear over and pushed the window open to look at the moon, struggling to swing away Zheng Huai's iron rod.

"Suffer death!"

Pang De was not polite either. He raised his sword high and slashed Huashan towards Zhang Xiu's forehead, bringing up a howling cold wind with terrifying force.

Zhang Xiu had no time to think about it, and almost as soon as he swung away Zheng Huai's iron rod, he turned his spear sideways and hit Pang De's sword with one move.

Keng!

After a loud noise, Zhang Xiu swayed on his horse and spat out a mouthful of blood. It was obvious that he had been seriously injured.

Zhang Xiu's strength is not that great. If he resisted with all his strength, he would probably be evenly matched with Pang De. However, he had just blocked Zheng Huai's stick with all his strength. How could he resist with all his strength in a hurry?

"Ding dong, a crack in Zhang Xiu's tiger's mouth has been detected. He is affected by the injury. The force is -5. The current force is reduced to 96."

The most important thing for those who use guns is skill. Of course, there are some like Gao Chong who have both speed and powerful strength. However, the vast majority of generals who use guns win with speed and subtle moves. However, Zhang Xiu, who suffered injuries to both arms, In an instant, his strength was greatly reduced.

Pang De and Zheng Huai also saw Zhang Xiu's state, but they had no intention of stopping. There was only victory or defeat in a battlefield duel. How could there be a fair duel? At that moment, the two of them exhausted their strength and danced like tigers with long knives and iron bars. The wind rushed towards Zhang Xiu vigorously.

Gu Zhangxiu was one against two, and even at his best, there was no chance of winning. However, within four or five rounds, Pang De saw the flaw and struck out with all his strength, sending Zhang Xiu's spear flying away.

Zhang Xiu was shocked when he lost his weapon. Before he could react, Zheng Huai had already taken action. The iron rod swept across and hit Zhang Xiu hard on the back.

The force of Zheng Huai's blow was over a thousand kilograms, and there was only a muffled sound. Zhang Xiu's armor cracked, and his internal organs were severely damaged. Another mouthful of blood spurted out, but he could no longer hold on, and he fell off the horse with a plop.

"Qiu... Qiufupifu, you killed me! I... I, Zhang Xiu, have worked hard to practice marksmanship for many years. I thought... I didn't expect that in the first battle... I would end up like this!"

Zhang Xiu opened his eyes, full of unwillingness. When he was dying, he couldn't help but loudly complained that Qiu Fu didn't listen to his persuasion and fell into an ambush by the Sui army.

"Ding dong, it was detected that Zhang Xiu was killed by Pang De and Zheng Huai. The host received 10 soul points. The current total number of soul points has increased to 55."

Two generals, Qiu Fu and Zhang Xiuyi Zheng, were killed one after another. Zhu Jun was heavily surrounded by Sui troops several times larger than himself. He struggled to break through and suffered heavy losses. In the end, his morale collapsed, he was unwilling to fight, and they surrendered one after another. More than 30,000 Zhu soldiers were killed in the battle, and most of the others became prisoners of war of the Sui army. Only a hundred soldiers who were familiar with the terrain and were agile managed to escape the siege.

At the end of the battle, General Xue Wanche rode up to Yue Fei and whispered: "General, what should we do with these tens of thousands of prisoners of war?"

Yue Fei asked in a deep voice: "What does General Xue think?"

"The combined forces of the Turks, the Puppet Tang Dynasty, and Zhu Yuanzhang have more than 300,000 troops. The war is about to begin and our army cannot disperse its forces for the sake of these prisoners, so why not!" Xue Wanche said and made a killing gesture.

"No!"

Yue Fei immediately shook his head and vetoed: "Hebei has been in war for a long time and has a sparse population. Most of Zhu Yuanzhang's men are from Hebei. They are still young and strong. They are the people Hebei desperately needs to restore."

"But..."

"Gather them all together and I will make arrangements!"

Yue Fei frowned for a long time, then suddenly had an idea and gave a calm order.

Not long after, the nearly 20,000 prisoners of war who had put down their swords and guns were all gathered together. The Sui troops on both sides were fully armed and looked at these prisoners of war with a vigilant look on their faces to prevent any unexpected events.

Each of these surrendered soldiers was cautious, looking at the swords and guns around them shining brightly in the sunlight, their hearts sank. Could it be that the Sui army wanted to trap them all.

It’s no wonder that these soldiers had this idea in mind. Although there is an ominous saying about killing prisoners since ancient times, incidents of trapping and killing prisoners abound. Let’s not talk about the distant past, let’s just say that in the past ten years, Wang Shichong, who was in charge of conquering Liu Yuanjin’s rebellion, had killed more than 30,000 prisoners of war, and he was notorious for his murder.

While these prisoners of war were on tenterhooks, Yue Fei slowly rode out, looked at the fearful surrendered soldiers below, and said with a smile: "Are you all from Hebei?"

"Yes, it is."

At first, someone bravely answered, and soon there was a chorus: "Most of us here are from Hebei."

Yue Fei asked seriously: "Since we are all from Hebei, why do we follow the rebellion and attack our hometown?"

"We had no choice. When there was a drought in our hometown, the county officials wanted to collect our last life-saving food. We couldn't survive, so we followed King Ming. It was King Ming who told us that if we want to go home, we have to drive you away!" in the crowd! A few bold ones raised their necks and shouted loudly.

Yue Fei sighed and said in a deep voice: "In the beginning, there were indeed some corrupt officials who harmed the countryside, but since His Majesty came to the throne, he has been rectifying the administration of officials. Since I regained Hebei in the Sui Dynasty, I have been rectifying the people's livelihood. Not only have I been exempted from taxes for three years, but I have also If the government comes forward to buy cattle fields and houses for those who return home, you can go home long ago!"
