But things have come to this, and there is nothing they can do.

With the combined efforts of about a hundred people from all directions including the witches, black crows, Jie clan warriors, and Xiong Hu guards, the hundreds of warriors from the Xiang clan were killed and retreated steadily.

It's no wonder that Mi Rui, Zhang Qigong, and Xiong Hu's men are not weak. What's more important is that the witches know how to use medicine powder to assist themselves, and the weapons held by the Black Crows, Jie warriors, and Xiong Hu's soldiers,

Especially the sleeve arrows of the Black Crows and the crossbows of Xiong Hu's personal soldiers, which were forged by the Wei Kingdom, and their lethality is not ordinary.

Seeing that hundreds of people on his own side were being defeated by just over a hundred people on the other side, Xiangchai was furious. He picked up a big knife made of an unknown metal and rushed over with a loud scream.

The ghost was happy to see that he was hunting, and abandoned the soldiers in his eyes. He picked up the ax and faced Xiang Cai. The first blow of the ax killed the Baguo horse under Xiang Cai's crotch, and then suppressed Xian Cai and swung the ax crazily.

.

At first he was able to resist the fight, but after a while, he gradually found that his arms were sore, his mouth was numb, and his physical strength was gradually exhausted.

Seeing the ghost raising his ax to strike again, he shouted: "Stop, I..."

When he said this, his words stopped, because the ghost muttered, "Who the hell do you care?" and hit Xiangchao's neck with an axe.

Immediately, blood spurted out from Xiangcha's neck, and the ghost's whole body was red.

With another blow of the ax, the ghost chopped off Xiang Cao's head, holding the leader in his hands and glaring, intimidating the pale-faced Xiang clan warriors around him.

Seeing that warriors like Xiang Chao were killed by You Gui, a tall and rough man, the warriors of the Xiang clan lost their fighting spirit and fled in panic, leaving the bodies of their companions behind.

During this period, Pingyu Lord Xiong Hu saw with his own eyes the scene of the ghosts fighting each other, and said with emotion: "What a warrior!"

After saying that, he frowned slightly and looked at Zhang Qigong and asked: "Why do you have to kill the opponent? I think the warrior named Ghost is clearly capable of capturing the opponent alive."

"Yeah, why?!"

Zhang Qigong stared at Pingyu Lord Xiong Hu for two breaths, and then blew out a breath of helplessness from his nose.

At this time, the ghost was running to Zhang Qigong with Xiangqi's head in his hands with a face of joy, he chuckled and said: "Lord Captain, I... no, killing the enemy's leader under a humble position is also a great achievement, right?"

?”

"Fuck you! Thanks to you, our group has completely developed a grudge against the Xiang clan. In a few days, a large number of Xiang clan soldiers will come to surround us and kill us... How dare you come to claim credit?"

?!』

Zhang Qigong stared at the ghost and cursed in his heart, but finally endured it, frowned and smelled the smell of blood all over the ghost's body, and sighed: "Go to the nearby stream to wash away the blood on your body."

After that, he walked towards Mi Rui and Pingyu Jun Xiong Hu.

While his men were cleaning up the battlefield, Zhang Qigong, Mi Rui, and Pingyu Jun Xiong Hu discussed countermeasures.

"These people are here for you."

During the discussion, Zhang Qigong clarified the matter very straightforwardly: "If Zhang's prediction is correct, Chu Shuijun must have reached a tacit understanding with the Xiang clan, and they want to use the sword to kill people, and use the hands of the Xiang clan to kill people."

You eradicate...and that Xiang Chao wants to capture him alive, it must be because the leader of the Xiang clan wants to see who can bring him more benefits, you or Lord Chu Shui."

Pingyu Lord Xiong Hu was not stupid himself, not to mention that Zhang Qigong had stated the matter so straightforwardly. He clenched his fists, a trace of anger appeared on his face, turned around and summoned a soldier, and ordered:

: "Su Zun, take a few people to Xiying immediately and ask "Xiying Lord" to find a way to recruit 100,000 troops and station them in "Wu County"!"

"A demonstration?"

Zhang Qigong glanced at Pingyu Lord Xiong Hu, then turned to Mi Rui and said: "Master Mi Rui, I believe that Lord Chu Shui has already liaised with the Xiang clan at this time. There are only a hundred of us, so we are definitely no match for the Xiang clan.

, I think we cannot stay here for a long time... There is no need to rush into killing Mr. Chu Shui."

Xi Rui glanced at the corpses scattered all over the place. Although her witch sisters were not killed this time, two Jie warriors and five of Xiong Hu's personal soldiers were lost. The rest were also more or less with...

Injury.

She nodded helplessly.

After thinking about it, she also understood that once Chu Shuijun and the Xiang clan united, the power of the witches alone would not be enough to compete with the powerful Xiang clan.

From the side, Pingyu Lord Xiong Hu also heard Zhang Qigong's words, came over and said to Mi Rui: "My sister, now that things have come to a point, the only choice is to go to Jiangzhou."

"Hmm." Although Mi Rui was a little reluctant, she finally nodded.

So, the group of people immediately set off, taking a secluded mountain road, trying to avoid the pursuit of the Xiang clan.

Half a day later, Xiang Cai's defeated soldiers fled back to Dianjiang and told Xiang Bin, the leader of the Xiang clan, what had happened.

When Xiang Bin learned that Xiang Cai, a warrior, had been killed, he was shocked and angry. He immediately ordered all the warriors of the Xiang clan in the territory to hunt down Mi Rui, Zhang Qigong, Pingyu Jun Xiong Hu and his party.

After issuing this order, Xiang Bin also came to Chu Shuijun's residence, told Chu Shuijun about Xiang Piao's murder, and asked the latter: "Why didn't the envoy tell me that another soldier sent by your country

The messenger is Mr. Pingyu Xiong Hu?!"

Facing Xiang Bin's angry questioning, Chu Shuijun said with a smile: "Is there any difference whether you tell or not? Patriarch, you also know that Pingyujun Xiong Hu supports the Ba clan because his sister Mi

Rui is the leader of the witches of the Zhurong lineage who are closely related to the Ba family... Do you think Lord Pingyu Xiong Hu will support the Xiang family?"

After saying that, Chu Shuijun glanced at Xiang Bin who changed his expression, and said with a smile: "In my opinion, the top priority is to immediately send people to chase and eradicate this group of people before they can escape."

"..."

Xiang Bin stared at Chu Shuijun for a long time, and said in a leisurely manner: "I know you are using my Xiang clan, but it doesn't matter, as long as the envoy can really persuade the monarch of your country to help me defeat Ba clan and the rest.

Tribe, I will still treat the envoy as a guest, but if the envoy fails to fulfill the promise he made that day in the future, don’t blame me for being unfavorable to the envoy."

"Clan leader, don't worry." Chu Shuijun said without changing his expression: "If I can kill Lord Pingyu Xiong Hu and his party, I will be absolutely sure to persuade the monarch of our country."

"I will."

After taking a deep look at Lord Chu Shui, Xiang Lin said nothing, turned around and left Lord Chu Shui's residence.

That night while staying in the wilderness, Zhang Qigong took a piece of paper from the booklet he carried with him when others were not paying attention, and scrawled a few lines of words in his handwriting. He immediately summoned two Black Crows and told them: "You two

I immediately returned to Nanyang and waited there. Soon after, Beigong Wei Cheng will arrive in Nanyang. When he arrives, you two will give him this secret letter and ask him to do as I said."

"yes!"

The two black crows clasped their fists and walked away, immediately disappearing under the night.

Glancing at Pingyu Jun Xiong Hu, who was wrapped in a blanket and sleeping soundly not far away, Zhang Qigong raised an inexplicable smile at the corner of his mouth.

Judging from the current luck, Lord Chu Shui has chosen to support the Xiang clan, and Lord Pingyu, Xiong Hu, has most likely chosen to support the Ba clan. Since both parties can support one tribe, why can't Zhang Qigong succeed?

"To turn Ba County upside down is not enough to show my Zhang Qigong's wisdom and strategy. Look at me taking chestnuts from the fire and instigating Qin, Chu and Ba to kill each other, so that I, the Wei Dynasty, can reap the benefits!"

Thinking of this, a smile appeared on Zhang Qigong's face that looked a little weird under the firelight.

At this moment, he suddenly heard a question coming from behind him: "Hey, where are your two men who call themselves the Black Crows going? I'm warning you..."

"Uh? Police, warning?"

Zhang Qigong glanced back and then noticed that Mi Rui had arrived behind him at some point.

Looking at Mi Rui's serious expression, Zhang Qigong was slightly frightened.

"She... noticed it? How could this... be so sharp? Wait a minute, Lady Mi Rui is the sister of Queen Mi. She is definitely not an ordinary woman. Maybe she really noticed it..."

Thinking of this, Zhang Qigong quickly explained: "Master Mi Rui, I will never dare to harm you or those close to you."

"...What is this guy talking about? I just want to warn him that the Bashan area is full of poisonous insects and beasts. Even if the people under his command are outstanding, they should not go around at night..."

Mi Rui glanced at Zhang Qigong inexplicably and didn't know how to answer the question.

However, from Zhang Qigong's perspective, he felt as if the woman in front of him was examining him, which made him feel slightly guilty.

"Forget it, what do I care about where his subordinates go?"

After looking Zhang Qigong up and down for a few times, Mi Rui nodded and said, "Then you... take care of yourself."

"..."

Zhang Qigong opened his mouth and nodded in surprise.

Looking at Mi Rui's leaving figure, Zhang Qigong felt relieved.

With his city and wisdom, he can barely hide it from the woman in the distance. He only hopes that when his deputy Bei Gongyu comes to the land of Bashu in a few days, he will not be exposed in front of this woman.
