The military flag embroidered with crimson characters fluttered in the howling wind. Now Xiao Tang not only has a golden tiger head dragon tooth gun in his hand, carries a cold blade wolf tooth double knife on his waist, and rides a fiery red piece of fire and a neighing horse under his crotch, he wears a hedgehog and a silver hood, and the dense Luo ring armor he wears is also covered with layers of heavy rhino leather armor. Although he has encountered the thieves in Hedong more than once on this road, Xiao Tang, who has always sat firmly in the Chinese army, is spotless and majestic.

From behind Xiao Tang, several teams of Song Junjian flashed out, carrying a divine arm bow and a yellow lacquer bow, each with a red tassel spear and a ring head knife in their hands, these troops were all elites of the forbidden army, and they lined up in an orderly formation. Only a moment later, Xiao Jiasui, Hua Rong, Shi Xiu, Pang Wanchun, and Shi Jin also drove out of the array on horseback, lined up and stood side by side with Xiao Tang.

From both sides of Xiao Tang, the left and right wings of soldiers and horses also poured out, among which the left wing commander was holding a crow horn gun, the treasure eagle bow was inserted into the flying fish bag, and the willow leaf arrows were also densely packed in the lion pot, and the two or three thousand soldiers behind him lined up in a tight formation to make a momentum, giving birth to a murderous aura, and the main general was the little captain Yao Pingzhong, who commanded the six battalions of tigers and wolves of the Western Army.

The main general of the right wing is the big sword Guan Sheng, he is also neatly draped, the curly-haired red rabbit horse under the crotch snorts from time to time, and the bowl-sized hooves also slash the ground from time to time, like a cluster of galloping flames, and the green dragon glaive with a cold blade in the palm of his hand is terrifying, and the two generals Xuanzan and Hao Siwen on his side will also point the sharp points of the knife and gun in their hands, and the military under his command are ready to charge.

Behind the military formations of Xiao Tang, Yao Pingzhong, and Guan Sheng, in addition to Niu Gao, who commanded the new army's horse army, Wang Jin also led the new army with Dang Shiying, Dang Shixiong, Wang Wenbin, and Li Yongqi, who had newly joined the army, to lead the new army to march slowly with neat steps. Although after the battle of Jieshan, the troops lost more than 700 people, and about 400 people were seriously injured and could not continue to fight, but in addition to more than 2,900 veterans and 2,000 reserve recruits from Tongluo County, Xiao Tang and Wang Jin chose 4,000 people to be selected from among the displaced people who ran to Taiyuan Mansion in the north of Hedong Road to avoid banditry.

It's just that the new army recruited as a soldier in Taiyuan Mansion is a strong people, and they have only been in the army for about a month after memorizing military regulations, rehearsing formations, and practicing the skills of attacking and killing in advance and retreat.

"I'm afraid of a bird! What is so great about those thieves and birds? Straight lady thief, just a group of bullying the soft and afraid of the hard! Lao Tzu tells you, the more you are afraid of those grass thieves, the more rampant they will be, in fact, they are mostly pretentious, and when you really want to fight with them, our lord will order advance and retreat according to the flag, and you just need to follow the orders with the brothers around you.

You say that you are not good at martial arts, it doesn't matter, let's strictly obey military orders and drill military formations, that is, we want the brothers in the army to take care of each other, dozens of random guns poked out, how can thieves and birds resist? When you guys in the army have been on the battlefield a few times and killed a few thieves, you can be regarded as real men! Think about the hatred of the thieves who have displaced you and lost your family, and then think about Xiao Jieshuai's great kindness in sheltering us, just follow the order and work hard, Xiao Jieshuai and Wang Jiaotou will never treat us badly! ”

Before they lined up to confront the thieves, the people who used similar words to appease the recruits were the same as them not long ago, but they were just some simple men who were tenants and farmers, and most of them were honest.

It's just that after a fierce war, many men in the new army seem to have opened their minds, although the soldiers who have gone through the battle of Jieshan will also pat their chests and boast that Lao Tzu had killed a few thieves with his own hands before, and how good they were at fighting, but seeing that those soldiers who were originally ordinary villagers like them now seem to be reborn, which will undoubtedly make the rest of the soldiers who have joined the new army for a short time settle down.

At this time, Li Yongqi, who was carrying double knives and iron guns in his hands, saw that the new army was neatly lineed, and he was just an ordinary villager who was a bandit and a thief in the past, but now he really had the atmosphere of a soldier in the Great Song Dynasty, and he couldn't help but feel emotional. Li Yongqi thought of Xiao Renxia, who had the grace to treat him...... These days are also very concerned about his son Li Shifu, although the official affairs are complicated, Xiao Tang often allows him to enter and leave the mansion to teach him martial arts skills. Thinking of this, Li Yongqi even made a wish that he would follow Xiao Tang to die and repay his great kindness.

Although now Li Shifu bluntly said to himself that his father would not eliminate all the thieves and enemy chieftains, and also left a few to teach him to kill, after all, he was still young, and Li Yongqi had to leave him in Taiyuan Mansion. At this time, Li Yongqi thought of the eldest brother Li Yonglie who died in the war, he clenched the spear in his hand tighter, and looked up at the blue sky, and secretly said: Brother, your heroic soul has never gone away, and see how your brother shines on the lintel of my Li family in the army, you should be gratified if you know it.

"Our army came in time, so we didn't let the thieves harm the people in Dingxiang County."

Xiao Tang looked at the place where the city wall of the county town collapsed in the distance, and a large number of thieves were about to pour into the city, his face sank like water, and he said in a condensed voice: "I spent half a month searching and arresting at the boundary of Xinzhou, and only killed a small group of rogues. Tian Hu was unwilling to sit still, and just as the Jiasui brothers expected, the thief army did not dare to confront our department head-on, avoiding the edge of our army, as long as the grain and grass were plundered and swirled in the mountains, there was no rich county town nearby, and the thieves planned to quickly capture this Dingxiang County, and then flee north. ”

Xiao Jiasui also rode his horse to Xiao Tang's side and said: "In the past, our army had to guard against thieves and bandits wandering around, and we had to take steps to do it, but now the situation is very different, presumably Tian Hu never expected our army to come so quickly...... This guy is also a ruthless and cunning man, in the past, he mostly provoked other thieves to harass our army, but now he finally saw his traces again. ”

Xiao Tang smiled coldly and said: "When we met on a narrow road before, the soldiers and horses under my command were insufficient, and I couldn't take the life of that guy...... This time I was taught to bump into each other, I don't know what to do with that guy? ”

Xiao Jiasui raised his head and looked around at the surrounding mountainous terrain, and said leisurely: "Even if he still wants to escape, where else can he escape?" But how long can they escape? Although Tian Hu did not dare to fight to the death in order to save his life, every time he fled, it would inevitably make a large number of thieves feel cold and surrender. Even if the thief leader under his command is vulgar and unscheming, but at such a time, there must be many strongman leaders who realize that they are just being used by Tian Hu's gang, and he will be isolated at that time, although the world is big, but there is still a place for him to hide? ”

"Tian Hu led the Xia thieves into the country to burn and loot, and now the thieves who are still willing to belong to him are not sorry to die, and now it is time to teach them to pay for their blood debts...... Passing on my military order, the soldiers of the new army held their positions, and then ordered Yao Dujian and Guan Dujian to intercept the thief army from the left and right flanks, and the rest of the men and horses followed me to attack from the front, the purpose of this battle is to do everything possible to annihilate the thieves in large numbers, and if you can kill one more, you can't teach one more thief to escape! ”

After Guan Sheng, Yao Pingzhong, Wang Jin and others received the general's orders, Xiao Tang raised the golden spear in his hand, and with the loud horn sound of the military in the march, the three armies moved together, with the momentum of a group of fierce tigers eating lambs, they turned against the thieves who were about to rush into Dingxiang County and burn and kill!

The golden drums beat and the trumpets contended. Tian Hu, who had just heard the little leader's report that Xiao Tang had led the army to arrive, suddenly saw a large number of officers and soldiers coming out from the foothills on the south side, shouting in unison, and swarming towards the swarming soldiers and horses, his look of shock and fear gradually faded from his face, and was replaced by a ruthless resentment and hideousness.

Xiao Tang, you are really going to die, I only hate that Lao Tzu did not take your life when he was in Shimuro Mountain and Mianshang County!

Although Tian Hu was eager to be able to cut Xiao Tang with a thousand knives, he also found that most of the thieves around him were frightened and frightened, and their faces turned pale in front of the powerful officials and soldiers. To say that Xiao Tang is really his nemesis, before he arrived at Hedong Road, Tian Hu's rebellion on Hedong Road has been smooth, and he has seen that the rebellion can be accomplished, but since he and Xiao Tang met by chance in the Weisheng Army's Shimuro Mountain, the thieves under his command have been defeated repeatedly, and now when he sees Xiao Tang's banner, his courage has immediately gone to seven points, and the morale of the officers and soldiers is booming, even if he wants to fight to the death, how can he win?

If you can't fight, it's not a long-term solution to escape, and now is the critical moment to burn your eyebrows, what should I do?

Tian Hu, who was angry and anxious, suddenly had a flash of inspiration in his mind, and secretly said: It is said that wealth and wealth are sought in danger, and if Lao Tzu wants to escape, he can only fight for his life ruthlessly!
