Chapter 118 The moment of victory

The shrinking of troops and giving up the fight for unnecessary places can minimize casualties and organize live forces to defend. Xu You mentioned when offering advice to Gu Changyong that the Governor's Office should not send troops blindly, because the sky is going to be dark, and if you come to help overnight, the enemy will be dark and we will be bright, and it is easy to suffer great defeat.

Now Lu Zhang is in vain. The two thousand elite soldiers of the Governor's Office are the last hope at the moment. As long as the soldiers persist until dawn tomorrow, the soldiers arrive in Beiguli, and will never go to fight for six days after a night of fierce fighting. After all, their purpose is to attack the clans, rather than to die together.

The fire in Beiyuan gradually faded, and the enemy who was mainly attacking Beiyuan was frustrated and could not find a breakthrough in the middle of the night, so he had no choice but to turn to the West Courtyard and join forces with the West Courtyard. The war in the West Courtyard also tended to stabilize. The strong Liutian tribe was fought and retreated by Gu Lin. After being led to the bamboo forest, he set a fire and burned dozens of people to death. The rest were also separated from the bamboo forest and could not attack for the time being. The thieves who came in the east gate had the strongest combat power and caused the most serious damage so far. They killed everyone, regardless of men, women, old and young, and there was no one alive. The three hundred people led by Gu Ming only barely resisted and died in battle for half an hour. Gu Ming was also killed more than ten swords. In just midnight, more than a thousand casualties were killed.

After receiving the report, Xu You ordered Gu Shang to bring five hundred escorts to the main courtyard, and then closed the door tightly, killed it with wooden stakes, and then sealed it with sandbags. The door of the courtyard was very thick, with forty-nine raised copper nails riveted on the door. After applying mud, it was not afraid of fire and was extremely strong.

In addition, the yard wall was piled up to form a ladder, and various furniture and wooden chairs were supported by heavy troops, and heavy troops were sent to the wall to defend. This time, there were 1,500 capable soldiers, including the troops brought by Gu and other guests. Although these people were low in combat, they did not have the upper hand in fighting in the dark for six days, and they were also risked to be defeated and swallowed in one bite. They could be used to shrink and defend - even 1,500 pigs, it was not something that could be done in one night if they wanted to kill them!

A small episode happened when he gathered his troops. Ren Fang brought more than 50 troops to Wuxian this time. Seven died outside in defense and battle. All the remaining ones were safely retreated. However, he learned that the little master had his head chopped down by Xu You. His death was terrible. He immediately drew his sword to him, trying to kill Xu You and then hurry up.

Although Gu Shang was resolutely and decisively disarmed by his troops, these people were still unstable factors. Xu You did not start a massacre again, but said in front of everyone: "I killed Brother Ren, for the sake of public rather than private. If I can survive this disaster safely, I will personally go to the East China Sea to bear the blame for the crime. But at this time tonight, since I am ordered by Gu Gong to lead the army to fight and kill and attack, I have only one requirement for you, that is, to enforce the order! As Ren's troops, your loyalty is commendable, and I can forgive you once. If anyone violates our military law, no matter who it is, Ren Fang's head is your lesson! Do you understand?"

"promise!"

Everyone was convinced and had no intention of contempt for Xu You anymore. The morale of the army was available, and Xu You struck while the iron was hot and said, "Come on, set up a golden cabinet!"

Dozens of cabinets surrounded the hills, and there were countless copper coins inside. Anyway, they were so generous to others that they spent Gu’s money. Xu You didn’t feel sorry for him, and said, “Those who dared to hold a knife would reward a thousand coins, and those who climbed the wall would reward a thousand coins, hurt one enemy, give one hundred thousand coins, kill one enemy, give one hundred million coins, and if one takes one enemy’s head, give one million coins! Those who are captive or killed the enemy’s wife or above will reward a million coins!”

"promise!"

"promise!"

"promise!"

The swords and guns were raised high, and the sound of killing went straight into the sky. There must be a brave man under the heavy reward. This is the truth that is the only one in a thousand years. There was a crackling sound outside the courtyard, and the thieves in the sixth day began to launch an attempt to attack.

Pei Jiaxu.

The battle came to an end, and there were still three or five remaining enemies fighting the trapped beasts, and they were soon killed or stabbed by swords and guns. Then, a team of five people recombed the battlefield and found that the seriously injured and undead were cut off directly for military merit. Most of the thieves with minor injuries took poison before being captured and only caught more than twenty living mouths.

The four wounded officials of gold, wood, water and earth were all killed in battle. After being identified by the prisoners, the bodies were picked out and placed separately. The fire officials were extremely brave. Although they were caught in five arrows and injured in many places, they broke through the encirclement and jumped into Peijiawei without any trace. More than ten flying boats were cruising on the lake, looking for them, and they could not see anyone but death, and perhaps they escaped in the dark.

However, a fire official ran away without any harm. This time, the five hundred elite soldiers in six days were almost wiped out. What's more gratifying is that the five wounded officials who are still in the tenth generals and the five wounded officials above the tenth lady died. This is a great war, and the court must have a generous gift!

A group of people walked out of the alley. The first one was slender and extraordinary. The phoenix wings and wings were hidden deep in his face. The fish scales and armor shone brightly in the fire. Twenty strong men surrounded him, and his majestic posture made people feel trembling. He stepped on the corpse all over the ground, his steps fell into the blood, splashing out a cold and elegant arc, slowly walked to the embankment, looking up at the dim moonlight, not knowing what he was thinking.

"Congratulations to you, and congratulations to you!" Yang Mo, as the first-class military marquis of Zhang, has never looked down on the person in front of him, but after this battle, he admired him and praised him sincerely: "After tonight, everyone in Jiangdong will know the name of your husband. What is the light of the night and the eight-tone phoenix sound? If you meet your husband, aren't you willing to give him a chance?"

"What's the point of being a false name!"

This man's name is Zhang Huai, whose courtesy name is Jingyi. He is a talent for fighting formations secretly cultivated by Zhang. He has never been revealed to the outside world. Tonight, he took out a small test and easily saw through the six-day tricks, then lured the enemy to set up an ambush, gathered and annihilated it. The marching and formation were rules and laws, and the results of great victory should not be underestimated.

As the saying goes, what you want is different from Zhu Ren, the current sect leader of the Zhu family, who is determined to transform from martial arts to literary, Zhang has been quietly planning to transform the family's focus from martial arts to martial arts over the years. The reason is nothing more than a different judgment of the situation. Zhu Ren believes that the Chu emperor An Zidao is deeply wary of the big family, especially the strong military clans who are ranked first, are all thorns in their eyes. Sooner or later, the day of liquidation, the destruction of the Xu family in Yixing is a wake-up call. From martial arts to literary arts, it can avoid becoming a victim and allow the Zhu family to survive better. However, Zhang believes that the world will be well-behaved for a long time, and the Northern Wei is eyeing it, and there will be a war of destruction that will cause turmoil in the north and south in the future. The literary powers the clan, but it is difficult to maintain stability. If the Zhang family wants to maintain a century of glory, the clan must have a good war talent who is proficient in the military formation. In this way, when encountering a critical moment when the tide is over, there is also the power to let go.

Zhang Huai is the leader selected by Zhang's family. He is the same generation as Zhang Yu and Zhang Tong, but he is not a legitimate or a direct line. He is not valued normally. His literary and poetic reputation is probably ranked above 100 in the family. If someone had not been keen on talent, insisted on promoting, and was taught military tactics and strict training, he would have almost become the most popular.

"Give the orders, no one should remove his armor, but he should be in front of the gun and shield, and he should be in the back of the sword and bow, and rush to Beiguli!"

"Mr., do you want everyone to rest? After all, I just fought a bad battle and were trapped..."

"You can't stop! You will lose your energy again and with the power of great victory, like a thousand-foot waterfall, invincible, and it's not difficult to win again!" Zhang Huai's voice was gentle and calm, not as steady as this age should have. He turned around, took a few steps forward, and tidied up his robes for the leaders standing in the forefront. Then his eyes passed by everyone's faces and said softly: "Let's go, after this battle, the family will have a heavy reward. And... Remember, come back alive!"

The offensive and defensive battle in the main house of Beiguli was in progress. The door was set on fire for six days, but it was not successful due to the door nails and mud. A large number of lit dead grass and branches were thrown in from outside the wall. The fire rose and the smoke made tears in the corners of his eyes. Xu You had made arrangements. The seven or eight large tanks in the yard were filled with clear water, and a large number of young men and women who were quick-legged but could not join the war with knives were responsible for transporting water and extinguishing the fire. There were slaves and gentry here, but at the critical moment of life and death, status was no longer so important, no longer so insurmountable. Ren Fang's head was still on the case table at the door of the lobby. Who dared to disobey Xu You's general order?

Seeing that the fire attack could not work, Liutian cut down the trees outside and built a simple wooden ladder, with ten people as a team, climbing the walls and attacking hard. The sound of fighting never stopped from now on. Liutian victory was because of fearlessness, and Gu's victory was because of the large number of people. Every six-day thief who climbed the wall had to pay three or five lives to kill or drive him down. The price was not too high, but after all, time was on Gu's side. As long as you drag on like this, the first thing you can't stand is six days.

"Report! The Western Wall is lost!"

The loss of the Western Wall was a local victory in the six-day tactics. They first found the weakness of the main house's defense through repeated temptations, and then deliberately increased their forces to attack in other directions, relaxing their offensive efforts. When the people from the Western Wall rushed to the surrounding areas to support, they suddenly sent a fierce general to take the lead, rushed to the wall, and firmly stood firm. They just waited for the subsequent troops to follow up, and then they could break through and completely change the situation of the battle.

"Um?"

Xu You's attention turned to the west, and saw a man holding a four-foot copper mace in his hand. His strong muscles were full of vitality under the firelight. Seven or eight turning blades were bleeding, which looked extremely ferocious, but they were still nailed to the wall like a nail. A mace swept across the wall, and the defensive team fell one after another, and no one was the enemy of one unit.

One, two, three, five... In an instant, more than a dozen people had climbed up. The bronze mace laughed to the sky, jumped into the yard, and said, "You pickled goods, Yeah, you want to eat your heart and drink your blood!"

Two military marquises used swords and guns, and with anger, they attacked from the front and back, taking their hearts and knees from the bottom, making sharp moves, and they were all ninth-grade cultivation.

"Good come!"

The man ignored the changes in the tricks and raised the copper mace high and smashed it. Bang, bang, fire was everywhere, and the two armies groaned repeatedly, and the knife and gun were broken, and it changed color. He was frightened. He was about to retreat when the copper mace attacked again, his head shattered, his chest and abdomen were sunken, and he died immediately.

"Qingming!"

Qingming You, who was standing behind Xu You, suddenly disappeared, and appeared behind the other party the next moment. The man's face condensed, his aura was as deep as a mountain, his feet stepped on the ground, and his copper mace stabbed out, and actually fused the powerful mace technique to the strangeness of the sword technique and the stunning force.

A mace pierced the air.

The man could not feel the existence of Qingming anymore. He turned around in shock, but saw Qingming's single foot as light as a feather on the square head of the copper mace, with his hands behind him, as if he was like an immortal.

"Little Grandmaster..."

This thought just came to my mind. Before I could choose to fear or fight, my forehead hurt, and the powerful true energy penetrated through the spiritual platform, destroying his eight extraordinary meridians. Even his dantian was washed away, and he collapsed softly to the ground, his hands and feet were still moving, his eyes wide open, and he felt unwilling and annoyed. He hated why he didn't bite the poison in his mouth earlier, so he wouldn't die.

"Catch it!"

Several pieces rushed over and tied him tightly with hemp rope. Xu You ordered Gu Shang to rush forward with the reserve team and blocked the gap again. Qingming returned to his side and handed over a card with the words Fengdu Mountain and Six Generals engraved, which was exactly the same as those I had before.

The fierce battle continues!

The moonlight was in the sky, and the autumn was as cool as water. The insects in the grass seemed to be stimulated by the bloody smell in the yard. The rapid cries even overshadowed the shouts of killing between the two armies, which made people feel upset and almost tear open their chests and breathed a breath of turbid air.

The brave ones win when they meet on a narrow road. In this small micro battlefield, due to the constraints of the terrain and the number of people, all the tricks and formations are all flowers and moons in the mirror, and they are useless to victory. Every sword attack, every attack, defense and advance and retreat are a competition of strength and will. To live or die, there are only two choices. Whoever persists to the end will win belong to whom. Without opportunity, no luck in the will of heaven, blood can cut the road to survival.

At the end of the Yin hour, the six-day offensive suddenly increased unprecedentedly. He attacked desperately regardless of casualties. The team responsible for the defense had already died for three rounds. Xu You had less than 500 reserve teams left. The entire defense line was shaking, and it was very likely that the entire line would collapse in the next breath. Gu Lin was covered in blood, knelt in front of Xu You, and said anxiously: "Langjun, what should I do? The thieves are crazy, brothers can't stand it..."

"Don't get lost!" Xu You's eyes were firm and his expression was as normal as usual, with a calm calmness with Mount Tai collapsed in front of him and his face remained calm, and said, "The sky is about to be bright, maybe it's the last attempt for the thief. After defending this offensive, it should be safe!"

"But how can I defend it? I really can't defend it anymore... Could it be that the group of six-day thieves who set up an ambush on the south bank of Wuling Creek came to support it? Lu Zhang's reinforcements have... been killed or injured?"

"It is good if Lu Zhang's reinforcements have them, but if they don't, they have nothing to do with the overall situation!" Xu You said resolutely: "I have 500 people, and I will give you 400 people. If you have any danger, go to support wherever there are. Don't be afraid. A rough estimate is that there are 300 people who died in six days, and they can't hold on for too long."

Gu Lin wiped his face hard and said, "Okay, listen to your husband. If you fight, you will never die!"

Xu You opened his arms and hugged Gu Lin gently, saying, "Believe me, we will all die, but we will never die tonight!"

Gu Lin rushed to the wall with four hundred new forces, and almost one encounter, more than fifty people died. The rest struggled to support him, chopped with a knife, bite with his teeth, and hugged the enemy with his body and rolled down the wall. Everyone was red in their eyes, either you died or I died.

The brave one wins when we meet on a narrow road!

While everyone was not paying attention, Xu You whispered to Qingming and gave a few instructions. Qingming changed into the clothes of the Six Days Ghost Soldier who died in the yard and quietly disappeared into the night outside the wall.

For him, the darkness before dawn is the sharpest weapon!

"Ah...who is it?"

"Five Generals? Five Generals are dead..."

"The Eighth Lady was assassinated!"

"Where are the three generals, the three generals?"

In a silence, three leaders died in succession in six days, which immediately caused a strong rebound. The remaining wives of the generals were all closely protected by their confidants. The rhythm of command immediately became chaotic, and the situation of the ghost soldiers' crazy attack slowed down.

With one go, the enemy's fighting spirit has been exhausted, and the fighting spirit has been completely eliminated. It is the best time to counterattack. Xu You keenly noticed this subtle change, pulled out the long sword, pointed directly at the front door, and said sternly: "Insulting my lintel and killing my wife are all these animals without a king or a father! Those who are still alive, follow my orders, rush out and kill all the white thieves!"

"Kill all the white thieves!"

"Kill all the white thieves!"

Ah, the gate of the courtyard was opened, and there were still 536 people who could stand. At this moment, everyone was willing to die for Xu You. Holding a knife in his hand and following him, all of them bravely took the lead, like an arrow leaving the string, breaking through the invisible barrier and stabbing into the chests of the six heavenly thieves.

"withdraw!"

The situation reversed, and there was no hope of victory. Six days finally gave the order to retreat. But at this moment, countless heads were thrown into the outer courtyard behind him. Zhang Huai's figure appeared at the door and shouted loudly: "The five wounded officials have been killed. Anyone who kneels down can avoid death!"

The overall situation has been decided!
