The sky gradually dimmed, the setting sun was as bloody, the hazy light of the sunset enveloped the entire earth, and only a bright red sunset was left in the sky.

Yao Fangqiong immediately stood on the top of a small hill, staring at the teams of soldiers passing by with quiet eyes. The cold evening breeze passed by him, a hint of coldness soaking. He stood there quietly, silently, as if he was merged with the surrounding evening scene.

"Dadadadadadadadadadadadadada" A galloping sound of horse hooves came, and a team of fast riders in front of him rushed towards the hills. The leader was wearing a set of finely crafted fish-scale armor, and the bright heart protection mirror was covered with a layer of blood under the fiery red light of the setting sun.

"General——" Wang Yue shouted anxiously, riding his horse to the hill. "The scouts returned, a large number of Song troops were found in Lingyang Mountain, with more than 10,000 people."

If Yao Fangqiong is in a deep pool that is as flat as a mirror, it can always make people feel an unfathomable feeling. It cannot see through, and it cannot guess, so that the person who sees him will faintly plant a seed of fear in his heart. But at the same time, such Yao Fangqiong also makes people quickly build confidence in him!

Wang Yue is his old brother, but he is more respectful than others in front of him, especially when Yao Fangqiong is immersed in his heart.

Yao Fangqiong's face was still calm, as if the bad news from Lan Meishan had not affected him at all. In fact, he had thought of this when he withdrew from Taoshui to return to the aid.

It is not uncommon for Lanmeishan to be attacked by someone without any defense. However, Baicang County between Lanmeishan and Yugu Road is tall and strong. Although the combat effectiveness of the defenders in the city is weak, there are as many as two or three thousand. In addition, the servants of the city's wealthy households and the strong people in the city, as well as the defeated soldiers who may escape from Lanmeishan, it is not uncommon for four or five thousand people to be used to defend the city. It is enough to only be used to defend the city.

Although the Song army captured Lanmeishan by surprise, it was just a partial army after all. How many troops could be spent on attacking Baicang County? If the county could be united and work hard to serve, the Song army would be able to do anything about Baicang.

If the Song army was always trapped under the strong city, then the troops of the army would reach Baicang when they returned, and the morale of the defenders in the city would be even higher. All the favorable factors formed by the Song army would be gone in an instant. How could the Song army have a chance of victory under the attack inside and outside?

Therefore, Yao Fangqiong dared to predict that the generals who led the Song army would first plot against their own army, and then attack Baicang City. Or they would ignore Baicang and take the fishing drum road directly.

Anyway, the current situation is that as long as this Song army partial division can defeat the troops under its command to return to the rescue, the prince's army in Dongcheng County will no longer threaten their strength in a short period of time. The Song army would let go of their hands and feet to attack Baicang City here without any worries. When the main force of its army was defeated, the defenders and people in Baicang City would of course lose their morale and confidence. At that time, the situation in the city would be that the people's hearts were shaken, the morale of the army was chaotic, and the morale was not strong. Not to mention that the guards were all the soldiers of the county and state and the young and strong people, even an old army who had been on the battlefield and had seen blood in the city would definitely feel uncomfortable.

Therefore, after hearing Wang Yue's cry, Yao Fangqiong's face was not a little surprised. If he had to say something, it was that he did not expect that the Song army would come directly to Lingyang Mountain.

Lingyang Mountain is thirty or forty miles away from Baicang City. The Song army had no need to rely on this forward, unless it was-

Yao Fangqiong had several thoughts in his mind and smiled indifferently. At this moment, he deeply realized the eagerness of the Song army generals to eliminate him.

"Tell the entire army to turn northeastward." Yao Fangqiong raised his head and stared at the east sky for a little, then said again: "We will camp in Qingpo tonight."

=======================================================

"Hu..." Liang Yi let out a long sigh, and his nervous heart was slightly calmed down. The prince's army finally left. He put his ears on the ground and listened carefully. The clattering footsteps were getting farther and farther away, and he was indeed leaving. Then he got up and relaxed his body.

Liang Yi stretched back hard and lay for a short quarter of an hour at the bottom of the ditch, which made him feel even more tired than letting himself fight with the army.

A team of soldiers with a complete system of Prince's Army, with a total of fifty people fighting power, came to search for him, a scout who had been climbing trees and trenches for many years. The pressure was extremely great.

Fortunately, my life was finally saved. What's more gratifying is that I figured out the direction of Taizhiyou's next move - the northeast. With this investigation, I can return to the camp to make a deal. As for where the final destination of the Crown Army was, it was not my own. The scouts were not the only one. The entire formation was 60 or 70, and there were twenty or thirty nails scattered in the northeast direction alone.

Slapping the soil on his body, Liang Yi quickly pulled out the ditch, half-bowed his body and ran towards Lingyang Mountain along the edge of the dense forest and grass.

While running, Liang Yiren's scalp suddenly exploded, and then he felt a chill in his neck. He heard a slight "hiss" sound of weapons breaking through the air from behind his head, "Damn it!" Liang Yi cursed himself in his heart.

After all, he is a scout veteran who has been around for almost three years. Although he has never been on the battlefield, he is still an absolute qualification in the team. He has passed the "stake" and has not even noticed it. If he died of such a sneak attack by his peers, it would be too embarrassing. Even if he died, he would not have the shame to meet the brothers who took the lead.

His body pounced forward reflexively, and his backhand drew the knife and placed it on his back. He heard a crisp "click" sound, and a powerful force came from his back, which made Liang Yi's body pounce faster. Fortunately, his sense of balance was not bad, and he practiced two-handed postures. He pressed his empty left hand on the ground, and supported his one arm. His whole body rotated in the air for a week and landed on the ground. The sharp knife on his back also swept the cycle around him.

The opponent did not follow the move, which made Liang Yi feel relieved, but then he was full of anger. He was not aimed at his fellow travelers who were also using swords in the distance, but targeted him again. He was really careless just now.

"Boy, it's not bad." A word of praise but actually mocking came out of the other party's mouth, and it also had a condescending sense. It was like seeing a cat with a mouse, and he didn't want to kill it with one blow, but wanted to prepare to play first.

"Where did nonsense come from? Let's see the truth." Liang Yi was actually even more amused by his opponent at this moment. He could tell at a glance that he had never been on the battlefield. For example, when Guangchang sent troops, he was not as good as himself who had experienced it now.

If you put yourself in your shoes and change it, you will not use a knife at all. Is the crossbow on your waist configured in vain? Just shoot it out with an arrow.

If you can't kill, then you'll get two more arrows.

Not only did this guy take advantage of the situation, but he didn't take advantage of the situation to attack, but wanted to "tease" himself. Bai Zhang is so old. If you look closely at his opponent, you will probably be twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old. This is a rare age in the scout team.

For example, Liang Yi himself is only twenty-three years old. He worked in Guangchang four years ago and was transferred to the scout team for a year. He is now qualified for three years. He is already a veteran in the scout team where he is.

Because, it was peaceful before, the scouts were just a decoration. And because the elites and good men in the army were concentrated in it, they would either be mentioned as the team leader in the team, or they would join the lieutenant to be the personal soldiers and follow them.

And the colleague in front of him was actually twenty-seven or eight years old. With the attack just now, he was obviously a good player who was deeply aware of lurking and invisible. He really didn't have the best man to look for him?

Liang Yi himself was online. If the war had not started this year, he would have been recommended by the lieutenant to be a close friend in the second half of the year. That would have been discharged from the army in the future and all of them would have been taken out.

However, no matter how Liang Yi thought in his heart, he did not dare to be careless when facing the person in front of him, even though he did not have any fear at all.

With a horizontal knife in front of his chest, Liang Yi was like a piece of cold iron, and his whole body was filled with a solemn and murderous intention.

The person on the other side has good martial arts skills and a short distance, so he has been targeted again. Although the crossbow is hanging around his waist, he has no chance to take it out.

With just a few steps away, the opponent's knife cut his neck with his skill as he took out his crossbow.

"Okay, I'm brave." The scout of the Prince's Army was not like a scout, but more like a swordsman in the world. Looking at Liang Yi's "concentrating his mind and energy", his murderous intent became stronger, his body was as thick as a cast of copper. His hands were raised, and the sharp sword lies across the air, and the cold light flowed, like a general going on a war, looking forward to a bloody battle.

"Kill--" Almost at the same time, a violent cry of killing burst out from the depths of the two of them at the same time.

The sword light flashed, and the sound of gold and iron clashing, the two figures instantly tangled together.

Just like the scout vanguards in the age of hot weapons, the scouts in the age of cold weapons were the most powerful and brave in the army. Liang Yi and the scouts of the Crown Army opposite were no longer reserved once they took action. In the crisp sound of jingling, little blood was poured into the surrounding grass.

Just as the two of them fought fiercely, a subtle "scratch" sound came from the grass not far away, but it was completely overwhelmed by the violent sound of gold and iron clashing.

"Squeak twist-" seems to be the sound of the winding of the crossbow.

"Surf" As the sound of the machine spring hitting, a faint black shadow shot out from the grass and swept through the air. An iron arrow covered with blackness accurately penetrated into the back of the Prince's scout.

The arrows broke through the leather armor of the Prince's Scout's close body and penetrated deeply into his body.

"Ah--" The Prince's Scout who didn't even make a scream in his body finally started to scream at the top of his lungs, but it was this one sound that the crossbow arrow that pierced his heart quickly sucked away all his vitality.
