Under the Wuming Mountain Hill outside Feicheng County, Zhang Xuan's troops were divided into two groups. He ordered Yuchi Gong to lead 700 soldiers to detour and ambush the north of Wuming Mountain Hill. ◎,

He himself led a thousand soldiers to slowly come to Wuming Mountain. At this time, the army at the foot of the mountain had not yet known that Xu Yuanlang had retreated south. They also discovered that the Sui army had arrived. More than 3,000 people began to quickly assemble to the south of the mountain.

Zhang Xuan looked at the sky. The gorgeous sunset dyed the whole sky red. The mountains and forests and the cities in the distance seemed to be on fire. Bathed in the rose-colored glow, everyone was magnificent. The rain for many consecutive days made my heart almost moldy. Suddenly, such a magnificent sunset appeared, which made people feel refreshed.

He turned around and waved his halberd, and the army immediately stopped advancing and set up its ground. Zhang Xuan held the halberd in his hand and urged his horse forward, shouting loudly: "Can the enemy general be willing to fight?"

The enemy's chief general was named Jiang Shengwu, who was Xu Yuanlang's right-hand man. He led more than 3,000 people to surround Wumingshangang, waiting for news from Xu Yuanlang. Once Xu Yuanlang successfully ambushed the enemy's main force, he will also attack the mountains in large numbers.

Jiang Shengwu was originally a Sui army captain. He was very skilled in martial arts and used a 60-pound iron spear. Seeing that it was too late, it was not conducive to the fierce battle between the two armies, he urged him to come forward and shouted: "It's too late for the Sui general on the other side, so why not fight again tomorrow!"

Zhang Xuan laughed, "I'm afraid you're too late to escape tomorrow!"

Jiang Shengwu was secretly surprised. What did the other party mean? Could it be that something happened to the king?

Zhang Xuan ignored him and waved his long halberd, "Is this your last chance, or not?"

Jiang Shengwu looked back at his army. Although his army was large in number, his army was not in a state of disguise. Most of them were old and weak. This was to lure the main force of the Sui army to rescue Luo Shixin, deliberately showed weakness and was not strong in combat. Although the opponent only had one thousand troops, he had bright helmets and bright armor, his rigorous position and murderous aura. It was obviously a team with extremely strong combat power.

Jiang Shengwu was really uneasy, and he also understood that if he could stab the opponent's main player off the horse, there might be a chance of winning. This is indeed his last chance.

"The enemy general was killed!" Jiang Shengwu roared, urging his horse to kill Zhang Xuan, and stabbed him with a gun.

Zhang Xuan sneered, put his arms into force, swept his halberd across. The halberd spear collided, and fire burst out. He heard a harsh sound of "Dang!". Jiang Shengwu's iron spear was shaken away. Jiang Shengwu shouted, turned around and urged the horse to escape. Zhang Xuan shouted loudly, urging the horse to chase him quickly.

The war horse under his crotch was originally the mount of the Goguryeo cavalry leader Oha'an. It was a rare BMW, ten feet tall. It was slender, strong and powerful, with red all over his body. It didn't have a single hair. When it ran, it was like a flame flying, and it was the king of horses.

The original name of the war horse was Lielong. Although the name was good, it was inappropriate, so Zhang Xuan changed it to Baoyan Beast.

Zhang Xuan's war horse was fast and caught up with the enemy general in just a moment. He swung his halberd and pierced Jiang Shengwu's back heart. Jiang Shengwu screamed and died immediately, and his body was raised high.

At this time, the drums sounded loudly in the Sui army. This was the order for attack. The enemy's chief general was killed. When he was in a panic, there was a sudden chaos behind him. Yuchi Gong led 200 cavalry and 500 soldiers to enter the enemy camp from behind.

Immediately afterwards, Luo Shixin and Shen Guang led a hundred Sui army out of the woods and entered the enemy formation from the side. The back was attacked, and the three thousand bandits were immediately in chaos.

Zhang Xuan waved his halberd and shouted: "Kill!"

A thousand Sui soldiers rushed towards the bandit army shouting and shouting. The bandit army commander was killed and his morale was sluggish. The Sui army collapsed instantly under the attack on three sides. Three thousand bandits ran around, and countless soldiers knelt on the ground and begged for mercy and begged for mercy.

Seeing that these bandits were all old and weak, and killing them was meaningless, Zhang Xuan ordered: "Those who surrender can avoid death, and those who resist will be killed without any slander!"

Dozens of Sui cavalry ran on the battlefield and shouted: "The general has an order, and those who surrender will be exempted from death, and those who resist will be killed regardless!"

The bandits, surrounded by the Sui army and had nowhere to flee, undoubtedly got a glimmer of hope, and they threw down their weapons and knelt on the ground to surrender. Large numbers of bandits fell to the ground, and the battle on the battlefield gradually stopped.

Teams of bandits were taken out of the battlefield. At this time, Luo Shixin rushed over and shouted with excitement: "Brother Zhang!"

Zhang Xuan turned over and dismounted and quickly met him. He was also very excited. The two hugged each other tightly. Zhang Xuan smiled and punched him in the shoulder, "If I hadn't arrived this time, you guys would have fallen."

Luo Shixin scratched his head and smiled, "Actually, I guessed that my elder brother was coming, so I deliberately created a chance for meritorious service for him."

The soldiers next to him all laughed, and Zhang Xuan laughed, "Forget it, I'll save you face."

Luo Shixin suddenly remembered something and hurriedly said, "Brother, this may be Xu Yuanlang's plan to lure troops. I have to tell the general immediately that he cannot be fooled."

"You are just remembering now that it's too late. I guess your general has wiped out all Xu Yuanlang's army. With me here, you guys are also lucky in disguise."

Luo Shixin was overjoyed. He was very worried that the general would be trapped. If Shen Guang had not stopped him, he would have broken through the siege and reported the news.

Luo Shixin felt relieved. He suddenly saw Zhang Xuan's horse, his eyes lit up, he stepped forward to touch the war horse's mane, and smiled with saliva: "This is really a BMW! Brother, let me give it as a gift for me!"

Zhang Xuan smiled and kicked him, "I haven't seen such a shameless little brother. If you don't give this horse, I'll give you another good horse."

Luo Shixin scratched his head and smiled, "As long as there is a meeting gift, hey! What we lack the most is the war horse. My war horse is already thirty years old. Every time I go into battle, I have to call it uncle first."

Everyone burst into laughter. No wonder everyone likes Luo Shixin. He is indeed very interesting.

The army quickly packed up the battlefield and took prisoners of war to Feicheng County.

At the gate of the county town, the county magistrate Li Hua was naked, kneeling on the ground with a thorn strip on his back, with an official seal hanging around his neck, and kneeling behind him with a county magistrate, county magistrate and others.

Luo Shixin saw the county magistrate and others at first sight, and was furious and drew his sword to rush forward, but Zhang Xuan grabbed him.

Zhang Xuan experienced the defense battle in Qinghe County and knew the helplessness of these local officials. Few of these local officials who studied and studied Confucianism were willing to surrender to the rioters, and most of them were forced to surrender. Many people even had to surrender for the sake of protecting civilians. If the problem cannot be fundamentally solved, it will be useless to replace many officials.

Zhang Xuan urged him to go forward and said, "Put your clothes first. If you are not forgiven for your sins, it will be useless to beg for mercy."

Li Hua stood up and put on his clothes, sighed and said, "The war is ruthless, and he can only survive and keep the people safe."

"I naturally know the right and wrong in my heart, let's talk about it when I go to the city!"

Zhang Xuan led his army into Feicheng County. The situation in the county was similar to that in Qinghe. It was dilapidated and desolate. All the shops were smashed and robbed. Every household closed its doors and windows, and there was no one in the streets and alleys.

"How many people are there in the county?" Zhang Xuan asked.

Li Hua sighed, "Not less than 10,000, most of them are old, weak, women and children. Young and strong men either escape or were arrested."

"How can I make a living?"

"Plant some beans and wheat outside the city and promise to hand them over to Xu Yuanlang half. He will send someone to check it out. If the handover is timely and sufficient, he will not harass him for the time being. This summer, Xiaomai will be handed over two days late, and he will kill more than 30 of us, which is extremely cruel."

Luo Shixin next to him asked resentfully: "Then is a thousand stone of grain fake?"

Li Hua was so scared that he said tremblingly: "There is indeed a thousand stones of grain, but it is not our grain, but the bait that Xu Yuanlang placed in the county town. He moved them all away a few days ago. It is their military ration. In fact, we can't have surplus grain at all."

"Hmph! There is no surplus grain, so I would rather give the grain to the bandits than to our own army, because we are easy to talk to, right?"

Li Hua and other officials were speechless. If the Sui army also wanted food like bandits, they would all starve to death in the end.

The next morning, Zhang Xutuo led the victorious army to Feicheng County. Zhang Xuan and Luo Shixin welcomed him out of the city. Zhang Xutuo turned over and dismounted and smiled, "General Zhang is indeed a believer, and he really comes to the Feiying Army."

Zhang Xuan stepped forward and knelt down on one knee to salute, "I will meet the general of Zhang Xuan!"

Zhang Xutuo quickly helped Zhang Xuan up and said to him gratefully: "Thanks to the general, otherwise I would have suffered a big loss this time."

"The end will be just right at the right time."

"good!"

Zhang Xutuo said happily: "Another elite army comes and a good general who is good at fighting. My flying eagle army is even stronger. It is said that the general has a cavalry, which is like a tiger with wings!"

Luo Shixin stepped forward to see the commander and said angrily: "This time, these local officials colluded with bandits, so they must not be spared easily."

Zhang Xuan hurriedly said, "The crime is not on them, please don't blame them."

Zhang Xutuo also sighed slightly, "Actually, I know, but according to my temper, I will never forgive them easily. However, since General Zhang pleads with mercy, I will not care about it for the time being."

Speaking of this, Zhang Xutuo said excitedly again: "This battle was beautiful and the harvest was unexpected. Even I didn't expect that Xu Yuanlang would be uprooted."

When several officials heard that Xu Yuanlang was uprooted, they couldn't help crying with joy and hugged each other. Two yamen runners ran into the city and shouted: "Xu Yuanlang is dead! Xu Yuanlang is dead!"

Every household opened its doors, and people ran out of the street and couldn't help but cheer, and cheers were heard in the county town.

Zhang Xutuo was stunned. The Sui army only wiped out Xu Yuanlang's main force. Xu Yuanlang was not dead and escaped by him. However, he didn't want to explain too much and let the people cheer.

Last night, the Sui army ambushed Xu Yuanlang 20,000 main force, killed 5,000 enemies, and captured more than 7,000 enemies. In addition to the 3,000 prisoners of war captured by Zhang Xuan, there were tens of thousands of prisoners of war in their hands. Zhang Xuan had an idea about how to deal with these prisoners of war.

The Ministry of War allowed him to expand his troops to 3,000, but he now only had more than 1,700 people, and there was still a vacancies of 1,300 people. He wanted to select elite troops from prisoners of war and incorporate them into his own army.

He told Zhang Xutuo what he thought, and Zhang Xutuo pondered: "Generally speaking, we will send these prisoners of war back to our hometown. The main reason is that we have insufficient military rations and cannot support so many people. If the general wants to increase to three thousand, I can transfer 1,500 people from the Flying Eagle Army to you, so there is no need to select them from the prisoners of war. In fact, they don't have any elites."
