Murong Ke told Murong Ba and the generals under his command of the two plans in his heart, and sought the opinions of the generals.

Most of the generals supported the raid on Yecheng and occupied the capital of Wei, and there were very few generals who supported the capture of Changshan County first, which is no wonder, after all, Yecheng is the capital of Wei and the center of the entire Hebei, and Changshan County is just a remote county in Jizhou, and the credit for capturing Yecheng is naturally not comparable to the capture of Changshan, besides, the news of the Jin army's entry into Hanoi County, they have also completely grasped it, if the Jin army is allowed to occupy Yecheng first, they will become passive.

At present, the Yan State and the Great Jin still maintain a superficial relationship between monarchs and ministers, and if the Jin army takes the lead in capturing Yecheng, they will be in a difficult situation.

Once this is the case, if you want to continue to maintain the relationship between the monarch and the minister, you must give up attacking Yecheng, and once the Yan army attacks Yecheng where the Jin army is stationed, it will announce the complete rupture of the relationship between the monarchs and ministers of the two countries, and the Yan State will take the lead in attacking, and will be charged with rebellion, and will be in an extremely disadvantageous position in the political office, so that the Great Jin court will take the lead.

Murong Ke also felt that it was the top priority to attack Yecheng as much as possible, however, he was very worried about the safety of his flank, afraid that the back road would be cut off by Su Hai, after all, Cao Fu and Zhang Jin's soldiers and horses were not as numerous as Su Hai, with the strength of the two of them, I was afraid that they were not Su Hai's opponents, in case the two of them were defeated, Su Hai would most likely lead the army to attack and cut off the grain route of the Yan army, so that the main army on the front line would lose supplies, so that the consequences would be unimaginable.

When Murong Ke expressed his worries, all the generals said. Cao Fu and Zhang Jin can at least greatly contain Su Hai's soldiers and horses, and besides, the follow-up army from the direction of Jicheng can reach Zhongshan County within five days, so that the threat of Su Hai can be completely solved, and even, some generals said that Ran Min has been captured, and Su Hai may not insist on resisting after learning this news. As long as the persuasion is appropriate. It is completely possible to make Su Hai loyal to the Great Yan Kingdom.

Murong Ke felt that this idea was good, so he immediately sent his henchmen and lieutenants to the Suhai camp in Changshan County to coerce and lure Suhai to return to the Great Yan Kingdom. Meantime. Send two lines of personal troops to Cao Fu and Zhang Jin's camp. Let the two closely monitor the every move of the Suhai Legion and effectively contain the actions of the Suhai Legion.

After dealing with the direction of Changshan County, Murong Ke discussed with his generals about the raid on Yecheng.

After a bloody battle with Ran Min's elite begging guard legion. Murong Ke lost 5,000 elite iron rope cavalry, and another 15,000 elite cavalry casualties, in general, the Yan army paid 20,000 soldiers for the lives of Ran Min's most elite legion.

Now, there are 10,000 cavalry responsible for escorting Ran Min to Jicheng, so the army that Murong Ke can mobilize at this moment is only 70,000 horses, but it is enough for the raid on Yecheng.

After Murong Ke made up his mind, he led his 70,000 cavalry and rushed towards Yecheng.

Just when the battle of Liantai was dark, a bloody battle also took place near Huai County, Hanoi County.

Hou Ba led nearly 500 Longteng dead soldiers under his command, and after breaking through the dock fort of a village and killing the villagers in the dock fort, he suddenly encountered the main army of 10,000 under the command of Zhuge Xiong.

Zhuge Xiong was ordered to come and strangle Hou Ba, and when he saw that Hou Ba actually killed the villagers of the entire village, he was furious, and immediately ordered his army to surround and kill this group of inhuman beasts.

Hou Ba saw at a glance that the soldiers and horses under the command of Zhuge Xiong were the elite division of the Jin army, and the soldiers and horses under his own command were Yan zhòng's insufficient troops, and he would definitely not be able to take advantage of the fight, but the 10,000 cavalry of the Jin army had surrounded him, and the roads leading to the outside world in the village were all occupied by the Jin army, and the best way to retreat was the position of the Jin army's flank. to avoid the pursuit of the main cavalry of the Jin army.

Before encountering the main force of soldiers and horses under the command of Zhuge Xiong, Hou Ba led nearly 500 men and horses under his command, and had broken through two Jin army camp tents in a row, almost completely annihilating the 2,000 Jin army soldiers in the camp tent, in addition, on the way from Wude City to Huai County, they broke through the dock forts of six villages, and killed all the villagers of these six dock forts.

Hou Ba has committed so many crimes, Zhuge Xiong only knows the one in front of him for the time being, but this is enough to make Zhuge Xiong full of anger, and he is determined to annihilate the Hou Ba Army.

When he was in Liangzhou, Zhuge Xiong learned about Hou Ba's storage from Hua An's mouth, and knew that Hou Ba was Shi Hu's personal guard, and was a fierce general with extremely high martial arts, in the original Zhao State, except for the god of war Ran Min, no general was Hou Ba's opponent, Hua An had also fought with Hou Ba, although it was only a contact, but Hua An could fully feel that Hou Ba's force was not under him, but he was afraid that it was much higher than himself.

Zhuge Xiong's martial arts are not weak, when he was in Liangzhou, he was holding his stomach full of anger, wanting to meet this candidate well, and now, the opportunity is in front of him, and this candidate has just done evil, Zhuge Xiong will naturally not let him go.

"The whole army will attack and kill all these beasts." Zhuge Xiong roared and gave the order to attack.

The 10,000 Wudang Flying Army, like a tiger out of the cage, slaughtered the Houba Army who had just finished doing evil from three directions, and Houba knew that he had to make a decision at this moment and immediately launched an attack on the flank of the Jin army.

"Soldiers, fight your way out of the encirclement from the flanks." Hou Ba roared and led his nearly five hundred troops to attack the flank of the Jin army.

On the flanks, there are 2,000 soldiers and horses under Zhuge Xiong's command, and the strength is still far more than that of Houba's legion, and the Wudang Flying Army is all elite, and it is not something that Houba's legion can break through lightly.

"Arrows, arrows." Seeing that Hou Ba led the army to kill him, the general of the Wudang Flying Army on the flank gave the order to release the arrows.

"Whoosh...... A rapid rain of crossbow arrows shot at the soldiers of the Houba Legion who rushed over.

"Uh......" Houba's soldiers, although well-equipped and powerful, but they still can't resist the intensive arrow rain attack of Zhuge Lianba, after a rain of arrows, half of the soldiers were hit by arrows, among them, nearly 100 soldiers fell off their horses, and their lives whimpered.

Hou Ba was wearing heavy armor, and although he was hit by an arrow, he was not in serious trouble, and he could still continue to rush forward to kill.

Seeing that the Houba Legion only lost 100 men and horses after resisting a wave of attacks from 20,000 arrows, Zhuge Xiong and the generals under his command couldn't help but look at the Houba Legion differently, and accelerated forward pursuit, preparing to besiege the Houba Legion in front and back.

The two thousand Wudang Flying Army on the flank, after firing a wave of repeating crossbows, immediately hung the Zhuge Repeater behind their backs, and drew the swords at their waists, ready to fight head-on with the Houba Legion.

"Kill ......" Hou Ba roared, led hundreds of soldiers and horses under his command, fiercely killed the flank of the Wudang Flying Army, and slashed and killed many Wudang Flying Army soldiers in a row.

But the combat power of the Wudang Fei Army is much stronger than Hou Ba imagined, after a fight, Hou Ba and the hundreds of men and horses under his command, and failed to tear a hole in the defense line of the Jin army, but lost a lot of men and horses, at this moment, the main army led by Zhuge Xiong has been killed not far behind him, and will soon completely surround the Hou Ba army, and encircle and annihilate it.

"General, we're about to be surrounded." A soldier shouted a reminder to Hou Ba.

Hou Ba looked back at Zhuge Xiong, who was riding a horse to kill, secretly complained in his heart, paused, turned his horse's head, and shouted: "Soldiers, capture the thief Xianqin King, when the general kills the main general of the Jin army, the encirclement of the Jin army will naturally collapse, and when the time comes, we can break through." After speaking, he rode his horse and killed Zhuge Xiong.

Zhuge Xiong had long wanted to learn Houba's martial arts, and at this moment, when he saw Houba's aggressive horse coming towards him, he was overjoyed, and accelerated to run up, preparing to fight Houba for 300 rounds.

"Who is the general, report the name, I will not kill the unknown general." Hou Ba rode his horse and killed Zhuge Xiong and roared loudly.

"Houba Xiaoer, listen well, this general is Zhuge Xiong, the general of the Great Jin Dynasty, and he is here to take your dog's life today." Zhuge Xiong responded, and raised his weapon to kill Hou Ba.

Hou Ba naturally did not show weakness, brandished the big knife in his hand, and fought with Zhuge Xiong, just after a few rounds of fighting, Zhuge Xiong completely believed what Hua An said before, Hou Ba's force is indeed not to be underestimated, and Hou Ba also felt Zhuge Xiong's strong force, and thought that killing Zhuge Xiong was not something that could be solved in a few rounds.

After the two fought for fifty rounds, Zhuge Xiong's marksmanship became gradually scattered, but he was still able to hold on, and although Hou Ba had the upper hand, the hundreds of soldiers and horses under his command were strangled by the main force of the Jin army one after another, and soon lost more than half, if he continued to fight like this, even if he could kill Zhuge Xiong, all the men and horses under his command would be killed, and once all his subordinates were killed, it would be impossible for him to escape from the encirclement alone.

After much thought, Zhuge Xiong decided to abandon his horse and enter the steep mountain from the other side of the village to avoid the pursuit of the Jin army.

After thinking about the strategy, Hou Ba looked at Zhuge Xiong and said loudly: "Why should the Jin generals be forced to force each other, my Hou Ba's martial arts are higher than yours, and I have already shown mercy to my subordinates." ”

Zhuge Xiong scoffed at Hou Ba's words, and replied loudly: "Hou Ba Xiao'er, you kill innocents indiscriminately, today is your death date, you don't want to escape." After speaking, he was full of energy and continued to fight with Hou Ba.

Hou Ba fiercely swung a knife at Zhuge Xiong's neck, and when Zhuge Xiong leaned back to dodge, he suddenly turned his horse's head and shouted: "The soldiers return to the village." With that, he rode his horse in the direction of the village. (To be continued......)
