On August 22, 5,000 men and horses of the Xinquan Army and the Chishui Army stayed behind to guard the camp, guarding the grain, grass and ordnance, and the Hexi Jiedu envoy Wang Qi led 25,000 soldiers to arrive at the foot of the canal.

Looking at the rising sun, Cao Yu, the tall and sturdy Suzhou Assassin and Yumen military envoy, arched his hand to Wang Qi and said: "Commander, attack the city, capture the canal bend as soon as possible, so that the soldiers can go back early!" ”

Wang Qi raised his palms and said: "Don't worry, the art of war is cloudy, the siege is the bottom, and the heart is the top!" First frustrate the enemy's spirit, which general and the commander go to call the battle? ”

When Cao Yu heard this, he immediately arched his hand and said: "Dashuai, the last general will please go and call for a challenge!" ”

The officials and generals couldn't help but roll their eyes when they heard this, and muttered in their hearts, as a state assassin and a general of the army, how could they easily go into battle to challenge? Unless all of your men are in ruins! You've gone too far trying to please Wang Qi, haven't you? If someone stumbles in front of the horse and is beheaded, wouldn't it be very wronged?

Wang Qi also felt that it was inappropriate, and waved his hand: "How can the general move lightly?" Calling the formation is not what a general should do! ”

Cao Yu was not discouraged, and hurriedly said: "Dashuai, there is a strong general Lu Wenbin under the last general, you can go and call the battle!" ”

Wang Qi nodded: "Since this is the case, then order Lu Wenbin to go and call the battle!" ”

"No!" Cao Yu was overjoyed, and immediately looked back and shouted: "Where is Lu Wenbin?" ”

A young general in his twenties replied loudly: "The last general!" ”

"I'll let you go and call the battle!"

"Yes!"

Lu Wenbin rushed out of the army with a spear and rode his horse, and soon ran to the place where the north gate of the water canal city was an arrow, stopped and opened his throat and shouted: "The thieves in the city will listen, it is Uncle Lu Wenbin!" There is a kind of don't defend the city, come down and fight your grandfather for 300 rounds, this is a real man! ”

The Tubo general on the city tower and the former prince of Tuyuhun heard Lu Wenbin scolding under the city, and his chest rose and fell with anger, and his face turned red, but although he was angry that Lu Wenbin was scolding him, he also knew that Lu Wenbin wanted to provoke him out of the city to fight, so he held back the anger in his heart and kept silent, allowing Lu Wenbin to keep scolding under the city.

"Si Lang Shen, you are still the prince of Tuyuhun, I'm sorry, you guts rat, do you only know how to hide on the city wall and horse? It's a shame for Tuyuhun to have a prince like you, you Tuyuhun descended to my Tang Dynasty back then, and thousands of tents moved to annex, but they rebelled, capricious villain! You have betrayed my Tang Dynasty, it is difficult to guarantee that he will not betray the Tubo people in the future, the Tubo people must have been very wary of you for a long time, maybe they will treat you as a substitute for the dead ghosts, you stupid pigs, stupid pigs····· Hahaha······".

The fingers holding the handle of the knife gurgled and the green tendons on his neck and forehead stood out and burst out, but he still endured no movement.

Xi Langshen could bear it, but his soldiers and generals couldn't help it, one by one they were so angry that they couldn't stop shouting, many people knocked on the city wall with weapons, and two thousand commanders couldn't help it, and said to him: "Prince, this Tang general in the city is too hateful, let his subordinates go out of the city to kill him!" ”

Xi Lang Shen said coldly: "No, no one is allowed to go out of the city to meet the enemy without the permission of this prince!" ”

The two commanders also brought efforts to persuade, "the prince ······".

Si Lang Shen was furious: "What, do you want to rebel? If this prince can't say it, he won't be able to! ”

The two commanders retreated gloomily, and their morale suddenly dropped a lot, and when the other generals saw this, they immediately drooped their heads one by one, and their morale plummeted instantly.

Lu Wenbin kept scolding, seeing that Lang Shen did not go out of the city to face the battle, but he was not discouraged, and continued to scold, and the scolding words became more and more vicious and disgusting, and finally even to the point of ugliness.

"Si Lang Shen, you bastard, I heard that your father was very old back then, and that aspect is not good, and your mother is lonely, so she secretly communicated with the chief of the guard, you are your mother and the guard, I don't know if it is or not?"

If you say other scolding words, teasing ginseng can be bearable, but as soon as this kind of scolding comes out, Xi Rongshen immediately explodes and jumps like thunder: "Fart, you damn Tang general, if you dare to talk nonsense, this prince will definitely dismantle you and chop you into mashed meat!" ”

Lu Wenbin was overjoyed when he saw that he was enraged, and immediately added another fire: "Whahahaha, Xi Lang ginseng, do you dare to say that you are not?" You are not at all like your father, not only in appearance, but also in temperament, and I have heard that your father was brave and resolute in his youth, but you are as timid as a mouse, and you are timid, and you dare to say that you are the son of your father? ”

"Bastard, bastard, damn Lu Wenbin, this prince is going to kill you, you wait, don't run away!" Si Lang Shen shouted angrily, turned around and ordered: "Kuba, order a thousand Erlang to go out of the city with Prince Ben and behead the Tang general!" ”

The commander of the thousand, Kuba, was overjoyed and immediately said, "Yes, the fourth prince!" ”

With the city gate opened, Si Rong Shen led a thousand soldiers and horses to rush out of the city gate, and soon set up a position under the city, Si Rong Shen handed over the soldiers and horses to the commander Kubatong belt, and rushed to Lu Wenbin with a big knife, shouting: "Lu Wenbin, come and die!" ”

Xi Lang Shen already hated Lu Wenbin very much, he had never been scolded like this, and he was scolded so badly, who could stand it? It's good that he didn't blow up his lungs on the spot, if he didn't kill Lu Wenbin, how could he get this evil breath in his heart?

Lu Wenbin was overjoyed when he saw that he was rushing over with a knife from a horse, and shouted and rode his horse to meet him, and while galloping on his horse, he also shouted: "Sure enough, it's a stupid barbarian, and he was dizzy by a few words, just right, wait for General Ben to cut off your head for credit!" ”

The two rushed together, the weapons intersected, making a ping-pong sound, and in a blink of an eye, they exchanged more than a dozen moves, each of them did their best, Xi Lang Shen looked thin and weak, the skeleton was not big, but his strength was surprisingly great, he was also brought from the mother's womb of the divine power, if it was not for him to fight in person, he would not have seen that this person had such divine power.

At this time, Lu Wenbin began to gradually fall into the disadvantage, he was not a powerful person, and he was not much more flexible than Xi Lang Shen in terms of moves, so he was quickly suppressed.

After fighting for more than ten rounds, Lu Wenbin finally couldn't support it, he didn't notice it for a while, and he couldn't dodge it and was cut into two sections.

Lu Wenbin was beheaded, and the Tubo soldiers on the city tower let out a burst of cheers, on the other hand, the Tang army sighed, and some people whispered in the military formation: "Looking at the appearance of this general Lu with a fierce face, it turned out that he was useless, and he was beheaded after more than 20 moves, hey······"

But he said that he had beheaded Lu Wenbin, and the evil breath that he was holding in his heart came out, very happy, he couldn't help but let out a long howl, and he was a little proud in his heart, and after the long howl, he shouted at the Tang Army's military array: "Who else will send him to death?" ”

Hearing the provocation of Xi Lang ginseng, Wang Qi's face was very unsightly, and he turned his head and shouted: "Whoever goes to cut Xi Lang ginseng, the official will be promoted to one level, and the reward will be 2,000 yuan and 100 horses!" ”

Li Hongding, the assassin of Shazhou, hugged his fists and said: "Dashuai, there is a fierce general Cai Jian under the last general!" ”

Wang Qi nodded and waved his hand: "Let Cai Jian go out of the battle and cut Xi Lang Shen!" ”

Cai Jian, who had a bearded face, rushed out of the military formation with a big knife and slapped his horse, shouting and shouting: "Cai Jian, the deputy envoy of the Doulu Army, is also here, and he will be killed!" ”

Xi Lang Shen looked at Cai Jian who rushed up, sneered, and immediately rode his horse to meet him, and when the two were only more than ten meters apart, Xi Lang Shen suddenly jumped up from the horse, and the big knife in his hand suddenly slashed down on Cai Jian on horseback, Cai Jian was shocked, and immediately set up a knife to block, but he didn't expect Xi Rong Shen to suddenly retract his waist and abdomen, and kicked Cai Jian in the chest with both feet.

Xi Lang Shen was very strong, Cai Jian was kicked and immediately spit out a mouthful of blood, the whole person also flew off the horse's back, and the weapon fell to the ground, at this time Xi Lang Shen was above him, and the big knife in his hand slashed at him again, and the person was split in half before he landed.

But I saw that the big knife in the hand of Lang Shen was supported on the ground again, and after his feet landed, he instantly exerted force, and his body jumped up and landed on his horse under the support of the knife bar.

The Tubo soldiers on the city wall saw that Xi Rongshen had killed a Tang general again, and immediately burst into cheers again, and the whole city was full of joy, with flags waving and gongs and drums noisy.

The Tang Army's military formation was lifeless, and two generals were lost in a row, and the soldiers felt that they had lost face and their morale plummeted.

At this time, the sun was shining high, the temperature was rising, and the officers and men in the Tang Army were sweating one by one, and their morale plummeted, and the situation was very bad.

Seeing this, Zhao Ziliang slapped his horse and bowed his hand to Wang Qi and said: "Marshal, now the morale of our army has plummeted, coupled with the fact that the sun is shining at this time, the weather is hot, the physical strength of the soldiers is seriously lost, and the combat strength is greatly reduced. ”

Wang Qi is not a person who is willful, after listening to Zhao Ziliang's suggestion, he felt that it was reasonable, so he ordered: "Order, the rear army becomes the front army, the former army becomes the rear army, slowly retreat and agree, General Zhao, you will take the big fighting army to break the rear!" ”

"Yes!"

Seeing that the Tang army began to retreat, and there was no confusion at all, he wanted to wave the army to take advantage of the situation to chase and kill, but he knew that the Tang army's army was not chaotic and could not be chased and killed, otherwise he only had a thousand soldiers and horses, and he was afraid that he would fall into a heavy encirclement.

Xi Langshen didn't dare to pursue, but he didn't miss the opportunity to laugh at Tang Jun, "Hahaha······ Just withdrew? It turns out that Tang Jun is also some gutless rats! If you have the ability to stay, you can fight with Prince Ben for 300 rounds! ”

Back to the camp, the generals followed Wang Qi to the big tent of the Chinese army, Wang Qi sat on the main seat and was angry, scolding: "Rice buckets, waste, before you start talking about how powerful you are, but after you go into battle, you can't stop Xi Rong Shen three moves and two styles and was beheaded, it's really a waste!" ”

Judge Wang Wei persuaded: "The marshal is angry, and the general will inevitably die in battle!" ”

Wang Qi gritted his teeth and said: "If you fight again tomorrow, which other general will dare to fight against you?" ”

At this moment, Dong Yanguang, the commander of the third battalion standing behind Zhao Ziliang, stood up and bowed to Wang Qi and said: "Commander, the last general is willing to go to war, and if he doesn't win, he will come to see him!" ”

When Zhao Ziliang saw that it was Dong Yanguang, he was immediately furious, and patted a few people in front of him: "Dong Yanguang, so many generals haven't spoken, what are you doing when you come out to make a scene?" Are you impatient to live or do you want to go into battle and die? Don't quit yet".

Dong Yanguang only found out at this time that he seemed to have crossed Zhao Ziliang and directly stood up to ask Wang Qi for battle, which was a big taboo, his face immediately changed, his heart was unwilling, and he was about to retreat, but Wang Qi spoke. (To be continued.) )
