Feng Ziying said doubtfully: "It wasn't yesterday that you went to a tavern on East Street and kept saying that the tavern was better than all the taverns in Sesha City."
"Isn't that just to get a discount from the boss?" Zhang Xuli said awkwardly.
"This is wrong." Luo Feng said: "No matter how good the pub outside is, it is not as good as the pub at home, otherwise your Jin Zhuyu will not let you go."
Zhang Xu couldn't help but laugh naively: "That's right, don't listen to Feng Ziying's nonsense, I never said it."
Feng Ziying was speechless.
"Report, lord, a letter from Jiang Hongguan." A soldier behind Luo Feng ran forward and handed the letter to Luo Feng.
After opening the letter, Luo Feng read it and said with a smile: "Yuxuan suggested that Zhang Shunxiao send troops to capture Jixi City in the north. In this way, we can use the three cities of Cele, Maiba, and Jixi to form the northern defense line to resist Qin Pei's forces. , defend the cities we captured, as long as we can defend these three cities, we will not be afraid of Qin Pei in the later stage."
Zhang Xinyi flashed her eyes and said with a light smile: "With my brother sending troops, we will surely capture Ji Xicheng."
Zhang Xuli said with a long face: "Everything cannot be absolute. Back then, your brother was chased and beaten by Xiu Jie."
Zhang Xinyi's expression changed, she glared at Zhang Xuli and said fiercely: "What did you say?"
Zhang Xuli felt that he had said the wrong thing again, and hurriedly hid next to Luo Feng and said: "Lord, when you become king, you must give me a sign to avoid death, otherwise if you marry her in the future, my life will be over. .”
Zhang Xinyi's face turned red and she whispered angrily, "What are you talking about?"
"Forget about avoiding death." Luo Feng said: "There is a life of rebirth that you need to do."
"What kind of job?" Zhang Xuli asked.
"Bring a banner of troops to support Yuxuan in capturing Maiba City."
"What should we do here?" Zhang Xuli was a little worried.
"It's okay." Luo Feng said, "Feng Ziying will recruit troops as soon as possible."
Zhang Xuli looked at Zhang Xinyi and said, "After I leave, the lord will be left to you."
"Don't worry, with the Red Robe Camp here, the lord doesn't even need to use the Tian Ming Giant Sword."
"Hahaha." Zhang Xuli said with a smile: "Now even I am inferior to you in terms of bragging ability."
"Fuck you." Zhang Xinyi glared at Zhang Xuli fiercely.
"I am not air, and the three-pronged stick in my hand is not vegetarian." Feng Ziying continued.
Luo Feng smiled and said, "Don't worry. With Zhang Xinyi and Feng Ziying here, Qin Pei can't take it away from Cele City."
"Then I'll set off immediately." After Zhang Xuli finished speaking, he said goodbye to everyone and immediately went to the military camp to gather troops and head to Maiba City.
After Jiang Yuxuan finished sending the letter, he kept waiting for a response. Until this morning, I received a reply from Luo Feng and learned that Luo Feng had ordered Zhang Shunxiao to lead his troops north to seize Jixi City. Zhang Xuli rushed over with a banner of troops to support him.
"Okay, great." Jiang Yuxuan put down the letter in his hand: "As long as we succeed this time, we can compete with the Eight Kings for the world."
"Qin Peigang was defeated by us. I am willing to take the troops of two banners to attack Maiba City first." Ding Xu said anxiously.
Jiang Yuxuan looked at Ding Xu, thought for a moment, and said, "Now is not the time."
"I'm just going first and exploring the way." Ding Xu continued.
Ding Xu looked like he had to go, and he was the flag commander. Jiang Yuxuan couldn't keep retorting, and said: "It's okay, but we can't attack the city by force. We only have these troops. If we lose too much, we will be unable to do anything."
"Jiang Hongguan, don't worry." Ding Xu looked confident and happily left Jiang Yuxuan and headed for Maiba City with the troops of the two flags.
Gan Chao had just arrived in Maiba City and was discussing military affairs in the lord's mansion. The soldiers outside the door came in and reported: "Report, Commander, Ding Xu's army was found outside the city and is heading towards us."
Gan Chao looked startled and asked, "How many people are there?"
"About two flags' strength."
"Where is Jiang Yuxuan?" Gan Chao asked again.
"Just resting where you are." The soldier replied.
Jiang Yuxuan did not follow, only Ding Xu was alone. Gan Chao immediately smiled on his face: "Hahaha, okay, guard the city gate for me, and immediately assemble an army of troops for me. I will attack Jiang Yuxuan's camp."
"yes."
The troops in the city began to gather in the square inside the city gate. They were all troops brought by Gan Chao and stationed in the military camp. They assembled very quickly and were completed in a short time.
Gan Chao ordered the city gates to be opened and led the army out slowly.
When Ding Xu was at the bottom of the city, he saw that the city gate was tightly closed and the city walls were filled with archers, so he ordered the entire army to be on standby.
With so many archers and only two banners, if he tried to attack the city by force, he would not only suffer heavy casualties, but the whole army might be wiped out.
Ding Xu walked back and forth under Maiba City, looking up at the city tower from time to time, and touching his head with his hands from time to time. If he couldn't capture Maiba City, he would be laughed at by Jiang Yuxuan.
When he was hesitating, a soldier from behind ran up and shouted: "Report, flag commander, Jiang Hongguan urgently writes, ordering the flag commander to return to the camp immediately."
"Back to camp?"
Ding Xu was stunned for a moment, then returned to the camp as soon as he came out. Isn't this a joke?
"Did Jiang Hongguan say anything?" Ding Xu asked.
"I didn't say anything. I just asked the flag commander to return to the camp before Gan Chao, and the army will catch up later." The soldier replied.
It's so strange. If someone has military information, they will definitely say that Ding Xu is a little confused when he comes out of nowhere.
Looking at Maiba City again, it is impossible to capture it with the troops in hand. There is no point in staying here. With Jiang Yuxuan's letter, no matter what, there is just a reason to go back.
Ding Xu immediately ordered the army to retreat, and he led a small team to the station first.
Gan Chao arrived at Jiang Yuxuan's camp and found smoke rising from the camp. It was lunch time.
"Hmph, it seems that Jiang Yuxuan's reputation is all in vain." Gan Chao curled a murderous smile at the corner of his mouth and shouted: "Fight in."
"Kill..."
"Rush..."
Gan Chao's army picked up their weapons one by one and charged into Jiang Yuxuan's camp.
Break through the fence, chop down the tents around you, and fight your way inside.
Jiang Yuxuan's army in the camp panicked and ran back, shouting: "There's a sneak attack, come quickly, there's a sneak attack."
The shouts and panicked footsteps disappeared in an instant. Gan Chao's army had reached the central position of Jiang Yuxuan's camp.
Gan Chao stopped immediately, beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, and his face was filled with surprise and fear.
The curtains of the Chinese army's large tent were open, and there was no Jiang Yuxuan army around. Only a man could be seen faintly through the curtains, sitting in front of the table and looking down at something on the table.
There was silence all around. Gan Chao knew that Jiang Yuxuan must have set up an ambush, but it was too late to retreat now, so he could only move forward step by step.
Stepping onto the stairs in front of the Chinese army's tent, Gan Chao was pleasantly surprised when he saw that the person inside the tent was none other than Jiang Yuxuan. As long as he captured Jiang Yuxuan, any ambush would be defeated.
