.Chapter 104: Reorganizing the horse

Zhou Yang led the most powerful light cavalry to block the enemy at the forward, which greatly reduced Pang De's pressure. He cooperated with him to disperse the cavalry, retreat and return, gradually distanced from the enemy.

Finally, everyone finally retreated to a forest outside Luoyang.

The terrain here is quite complicated, and the other party will not chase after it so quickly, but before dawn, the siege will inevitably be reorganized.

However, Zhou Yang and others had at least a chance to breathe, but Cao Lin, who was lying in his arms, would never wake up again.

Ren Hao, Dongfang Shuo and others were recuperating from the side, and Pang De selected the remaining more than 300 thunder cavalry and less than a thousand light cavalry.

The falcon Tianxiang, flying in the night sky, seemed to feel that his master's life had disappeared and fell beside Zhou Yang, and he was speechless with grief.

Sima Yi came over and comforted him: "A person cannot be resurrected when he dies. Brother must cheer up."

Zhou Yang closed his eyes tightly, hoping that all this was a nightmare.

After waking up, will you go back to the battle between Cao Cao and the north, or will it be the sound of the desert wind blowing in your ears, or is it actually still lying in front of the computer and never going out to drink wine...

However, Pang De's voice came from his ears and recalled him from his self-comfort, saying, "If it weren't for the intelligence group, we still don't know that Prime Minister Zhou had been attacked."

Sima Yi asked strangely: "If the emperor had the intention to attack us, it would be impossible for him to not include the Luoyang Intelligence Group. How could Ye Xuan and the others get the news so promptly?"

Pang De replied: "I have never seen the intelligence team that came to notify me before. If Ye Xuan had not recognized that the other party was actually a companion who was promoted by Gu Yiyuan back then, we would have thought it was a fake love group."

Zhou Yang suddenly said, "Are they Fang Yuzhu and Ling Yu?"

When Sima Yi heard the names of these two people, his eyes seemed a little frustrated, but he immediately came to his senses and analyzed: "Sister Yuzhu originally planned to return to Luoyang directly from Hanoi. On the way, he found that we were attacked, so he rushed back to Luoyang to notify you as soon as possible. It seems that in addition to General Pang De, our troops should be coming to pick them up soon."

Pang De said: "On the contrary, generals such as Guo Huai, Fei Yao have already transferred the troops of Yong and Liang states back to Chang'an and are ready to continue to fight against the Shu army."

Sima Yi said in surprise: "The Shu army has come so quickly to invade the Wei territory?"

Pang Dedao: "This time, Zhuge Liang led his army 100,000 out of the Xigu, and went all the way to Ji County and entered the south of the Wei River."

Sima Yi said: "How will the guards in various places react?"

Pang Dedao: "They all defend according to the original arrangements. The guards from all over the country have taken the initiative to lead their troops across the Wei River and built a fortress on the back of the water to block the enemy. But why not quarrel with Zhuge Liang in Weibei?"

Sima Yi analyzed: "The people are all gathered in Weinan, and this is a place that must be fought for. Therefore, Zhuge Liang must go out to work on the mountain and go east. If he goes west to Wuzhangyuan, then the Shu army's actions will be just a small fight and no major situation will happen. We can transfer Guo Huai and Fei Yao back to Luoyang."

Pang De said: "Then how can we inform the people over Luoyang?"

Dongfang Shuo, who was standing beside him, had just bandaged his wounds and immediately said, "Leave this matter to me."

After Zhou Yang took off his battle robe, covered Cao Lin, and took a deep breath to calm his emotions, he said: "The other party has so many alchemists from the Danding Sect, Mr. Dongfang is probably powerless."

Dongfang Shuo said, "If it were just me, of course I wouldn't be able to do it, but..."

Ponde hurriedly asked, "But what?"

Sima Yi immediately said suddenly: "Let General Pang De lead the cavalry to break through intently, attract the attention of Qi Han and others, and then let Mr. Dongfang get into the enemy army and find an opportunity to break out of the encirclement?"

Pang De clapped his legs and said, "Good idea."

Zhou Yang said: "But the sir's injury..."

Dongfang Shuo smiled and said, "This little bit of hurt is a little bit, so let's take the night operation right away."

After discussing the time and cooperation and various details, they all went to prepare.

All that is left is waiting for reinforcements to come, while Zhou Yang took advantage of tonight to bury Cao Lin and erected a monument to her.

Then quickly pack up and prepare for the battle after dawn.

"I didn't expect that in order to deal with Prime Minister Zhou, the emperor could even ignore the Shu army's invasion of the border." Ren Hao said indignantly.

"No," Sima Yi said, "It should be that Zhuge Liang knew that the Wei State was fighting internally and was attacking. Otherwise, with the national strength of the Shu army, it would be impossible for him to organize combat power so quickly. Therefore, this time the Shu army invaded the territory, he must have made sufficient preparations."

"With Zhuge Liang's character, he would never attack Wei alone." Zhou Yang said calmly, "But now that the Xianbei has just been pacified, the Qiang people have been appeased again. It is impossible for them to be instigated by the other party so quickly, so the most likely one is the Eastern Wu."

"That's right." Sima Yi agreed, "The Eastern Wu has been raising his energy for a long time and has long been tempted by Jingzhou. There is no reason to give up this opportunity to cooperate with the Shu army."

"If the emperor still has to focus on dealing with me, then Wu and Shu will definitely have an opportunity to take advantage of it." Zhou Yang sighed, "The only people who suffer will be affected by that time."

I have seen such a huge project in Luoyang and so much hard labor recruited from all over the country.

When Zhou Yang still felt scared when he thought about what he saw and heard during the inspection with Gao Tanglong.

But now he is already unable to protect himself, and it will be useless to consider so many issues. He only hopes that Dongfang Shuo can successfully sneak back to Luoyang with the cooperation of Pang De.

When the sky gradually turned brighter, everyone stood up.

Almost everyone was very tired last night, but they did not recover from resting for a night, but instead became even more frightened.

It is still unknown whether Dongfang Shuo can bring reinforcements.

But outside the mountains and forests, there are powerful enemies who are really waiting for them.

The sun shone in through the shade of the trees like a light arrow. Zhou Yang supported himself with a tiger roar spear. After taking a deep breath, he said: "From now on, if there are soldiers who don't want to die, please leave behind the forest. Others, please prepare for death in battle."

Unexpectedly, no one left, which was not only beyond Zhou Yang's expectations, but also beyond Sima Yi, Ren Hao and others' expectations.

Most of these soldiers were composed of Zhang He's old subordinates and Cao Lin's headquarters. Even Zhou Yang didn't know why they got the courage and were willing to continue to follow in such desperate situations.

Ren Hao and several thunder guards were responsible for protecting Sima Yi's safety, while Zhou Yang himself led his troops to open the way.

However, when they stepped out of the forest, they found that they did not have the dilemma they imagined. Only Qin Lang was waiting for them. Moreover, when they saw Zhou Yang and others, they immediately took a defensive posture and had no intention of taking the initiative to attack.

Zhou Yang was afraid of an ambush, so he brought more than 200 light cavalry forward to test.

Qin Lang's army immediately retreated, only with the archers' plan to force them back.

Sima Yi judged: "The other party should have been attacked by our people, so that only one army was left here to guard. If I guess correctly, maybe the main force of the Huanglong Army should go back to Luoyang first to prevent accidents."

Zhou Yang said: "Reasonably, even if Guo Huai and Fei Yao's army are transferred back, it is impossible for us to deploy reinforcements so quickly. Who will help us?"

I saw that the opponent's troops were gradually decreasing, and it was obvious that the pressure from the rear increased greatly.

Zhou Yang took the opportunity to lead his troops to cover up the killing, but saw waves of shouts from all directions shocking the sky. A group of black-clothed warriors with about hundreds of people emerged from the mountains and forests, with at least tens of thousands of people in total.

Although most of these black-clothed warriors used long sticks, rakes, hoes and other farm tools as weapons, they all had well-equipped swordsmans who kept an orderly formation to trap Qin Langjun.

The main force rushed from the rear in two halves. The leader was Guo Daxian and Bai Luo, who had been away for a long time, and the four Heishan divine weapons, were the first to be killed and fell off the horse, causing the remaining Wei army to collapse without fighting.

After the two sides met, Zhou Yang looked at the huge number of peasant soldiers in surprise.

It turned out that Guo Daxian and others had received a long time ago that the Black Mountain disciples from Taipingzhai Mountain sent a signal, but they did not dare to act rashly because they saw the Wei army preparing at the foot of the mountain.

"What about the Bai Luo brothers?" Zhou Yang asked hurriedly.

"Even if we don't need the contact signal from our fellow disciples, we will come to support Prime Minister Zhou." Bai Luo explained as a representative, "In order to seek the people of the world, Prime Minister Zhou was trapped in a political storm. Now the people are still in pain in the hard labor of Luoyang, so how can we ignore it?"

"So you came to Luoyang, but they just happened to meet Guo Daxian and the others." Zhou Yang said suddenly.

"Of course, in addition to our old Heishan subordinates, farmers in many places also responded." Guo Daxian said excitedly, "including the four bandits of Mount Tai back then, they also organized the village heroes, hoping to continue to follow Prime Minister Zhou with us."

"Now our main force is fighting against the Huanglong army under the leadership of the Wu Fang brothers, otherwise how could we come to rescue easily?" Bai Zhuanwai.

"No matter what, I must go back to Luoyang first." Zhou Yang once again deeply felt the expectations of the people for him, and was even more eager to return to Luoyang to join Gao Tanglong to liberate the people from hard labor. "Would you like to go with me?"

"That's more to say?" Guo Daxian said loudly.

"This is more than twenty miles away from Luoyang Gong, but we still have to be careful." Sima Yi suggested, "It is best to divide it into three teams evenly and concentrate at the city gate at the same time to prevent accidents."

"Be careful to make the ten thousand-year-old ship." Ren Hao said.
