As Meng Longfu spoke, he stepped forward with his halberd, and together with more than ten companions around him, they all thrust forward. Yao Sheng tried in vain to wave the curved blade in his hand to resist, but he could not block the concentrated attack of more than ten halberds. The thorn immediately gave him a chill in his heart. The moment before he closed his eyes, he seemed to hear Liu Yu's mocking voice: "Sincerity leads to immortality?!"

The battle cry of "Dead Demon Thief Yao Sheng" echoed everywhere on the battlefield, and Yao Sheng's head was also hung on the city wall, because this head was so big and special that people within a ten-mile radius could see it. It was clear that not only the demon thief troops outside the city were retreating like a tide, but also the "immortal people" who climbed to the top of the city were all timid, falling like raindrops from the top of the city or jumping off on their own. At a height of ten feet, most of the people who fell were dead or maimed. A few who were lucky enough to jump onto the flesh pads of some corpses were still able to continue moving and limped away into the distance.

Hundreds of Beifu warriors, who were covered in fireworks and smeared with grease, were as fast as flying, chasing the fleeing enemy troops. Those Tianshi Dao warriors wearing heavy armor were in bad luck at this moment, and they all caught up. The iron and leather armor were like paper in front of the steel weapons of the killing gods of the Beifu Army. The tips of the swords in everyone's hands were stained red with blood. Within ten miles, corpses were lying on each other. There were countless demon thieves, kneeling down and begging to surrender, accompanied by the women and children in the rear army, screaming and running around on the battlefield. Everything was so chaotic.

Liu Yu walked back to the top of the city. Murong Lan stood there with a smile on his face, arms folded, and said with a smile: "Originally, I wanted to shoot Yao Sheng to death at the top of the city, but then I saw you went straight to him, so I Stop it, you probably haven't done this kind of thing of killing enemy generals for a long time. Why do you want to give the credit to the Raptors this time?" As she said this, she picked up a leather bag and handed it to Liu Yu, "You are thirsty. Drink some water. I won't give you any wine. Drinking too much wine after the war will harm your health."

Liu Yu walked up to Murong Lan, took the leather bag, and when he raised it, he drank for a while. Almost half of the water in the leather bag went into his stomach. After drinking, he raised the leather bag over his head and pointed it at his head. A violent shower washed away all the oil from his body, and while he was showering like this, he shook his head and said: "It's so damn faded, it doesn't taste good!"

Murong Lan said angrily: "Then go find water by yourself next time. Your kindness will not be repaid. You haven't thanked me for giving you the formula of these fire retardant oils. This is the secret of our Murong family. It's an advantage for you." .”

Liu Yu smiled and said: "Yes, yes, this is a good thing. With this thing, you don't have to be afraid of the ignition of the black demonic water. However, even without this, we can still defeat Yao Sheng. His The combat effectiveness of those subordinates is still incomparable to that of our Beifu soldiers."

Murong Lan frowned slightly and pointed to the Meng Long Talisman about five miles outside the city, which was running as fast as flying, still waving the big halberd like a windmill, and looking like a god of death. Every time it stabbed, a demon thief would scream. He fell down, and he didn't even bother to do what other warriors did. After killing the enemy, he cut off the head and ran directly to the next target.

"Have you seen it, Brother Wolf? This raptor really looks like you. However, his murderous nature is too heavy and unrestrained. I'm worried that he will suffer big losses if he does this in the future."

Liu Yu shook his head disapprovingly: "The brothers of the Beifu Army are all such warriors. It doesn't matter. On the battlefield, they will obey the general's orders. Now my order is to pursue and kill freely, but only kill the enemy." Soldiers, do not harm civilians, and if you kneel down to ask for surrender, you are not allowed to kill. You see, the Raptors have not violated this military order now."

Murong Lan shook his head: "That's your problem. There is no regulation on the range and distance of the pursuit. Moreover, cavalry is usually used to chase and kill fleeing enemies. If you let the infantry chase and kill people like this, it will waste time and effort. The effect will be It’s not good. Brothers in Beifu, just ignore them when they are in the mood for killing. As the general, you should restrain them more at this time instead of showing up here. If other troops from Tianshi Dao come at this time, I’m afraid you You will suffer a big loss."

Liu Yu smiled and took Murong Lan's hand: "It's not that I can't bear to leave you, but I can't bear to worry about you. The other troops of Tianshi Dao, the nearest one is now a hundred miles away, and it is impossible to reach the battlefield. Moreover, They didn’t come here for it.”

Murong Lan was stunned for a moment and took out her hand: "How did you know? Do you have an informant outside?"

Liu Yu smiled and pointed to the city wall in the distance. The Shen brothers who were cleaning up the dead bodies on the city wall and arranging the militia team said: "I am in Wu land, and it is not that I don't have eyes and ears now. These rich people who have surrendered to me They not only brought the villagers from the tribe to help me defend the city, but their tribesmen and neighbors also watched every move of Wu and the movements of the army of monsters and thieves. However, I was in this Juzhang City. It’s crystal clear.”

Murong Lan shook his head: "But these villagers have not received espionage training, how can they pass on information to you?"

Liu Yu smiled slightly, pointed to the west direction, where a plume of gray smoke rose, and said: "During your absence in the past two years, Fatty and Xianzhi have not been idle. They have trained informants in every village in Wudi. , find one or two smart people to teach them how to communicate with these beacons and birds. I know the movements of large groups of enemy troops within a radius of five hundred miles. If not, how can I formulate this defense strategy? If the enemy is There is an ambush outside the military city and they are trying to trick me into defeat, so wouldn’t I risk the lives of the soldiers because of it?”

Murong Lan sighed: "I know that you are always very cautious in the military, and you make decisions before taking action. You are by no means a reckless man who only shows off his bravery. But Brother Lang, you have to know that not everyone is as fierce as you." The dragon is a brave general, but it is easy to break if it is too strong. If it kills the boss and does not know how to control it, it will suffer a loss sooner or later. If you want it to be independent in the future instead of obeying your orders in everything, it is best to restrain and control it now. "

Liu Yu nodded: "What you said makes sense. I listened to it and will definitely pay more attention to it in the future. But next, I'm afraid we will have to set off as a whole army soon. Then there will be another series of fierce battles, so, When you come back this time, if you have anything to discuss with me, you’d better do it now.”

Murong Lan's beautiful eyebrows frowned: "Put my affairs aside and talk about business first. You said that the other main forces of Tianshi Dao didn't even say a word. What do you mean?"

Liu Yu's eyes flashed coldly: "Because this time Tianshi Dao landed, the target is not Wu. They don't want to face the Beifu Army in a decisive battle to lose strength and waste time. This time Sun En landed, his ambition is more than ever before. , so they first forced Marshal Liu back, and then used Yao Sheng to trap me in Juzhang, while their main force moved northward, first breaking through Haiyan, then heading toward Wuxing, taking the Hudu fortress, and then marched along the river to directly capture the Jin Dynasty. Capital City, Jiankang!"
