Fu Youde stood at a high place and looked from afar, and Zhang Dingbian's formation was in his eyes.

I saw that the front was a horse-blocking pile that was sharpened with wood, and a fork stick was built in front. The newly cut pointed tip was 60 degrees upwards and placed on the fork stick. The roots were buried deep in the soil, one foot apart, densely packed. This was used to block the cavalry's charge.

One meter behind, there were iron shields that were one person high, inserted side by side into the soil, one by one, and even the dense arrows could not be shot in.

At the interface of the iron shield, a sharp spear with a rod exposed to the spear tip. If a soldier breaks through, the spear behind will pierce out.

Behind the iron shield are soldiers lined up, one by one standing straight, with the archer at the front, and the spearman and the sword shield hand behind. The archer holds a bow and arrow, the spearman stands with a gun, the sword shield hand holds a knife in one hand and the shield hand in the other.

Behind were thousands of cavalry, divided into ten columns, lined up in a row, ready to rush to the death at any time.

In the middle is a tall general stand, and there is a man with a helmet and armor standing on it. It must be Zhang Dingbian.

There are three big drums on the middle of the high platform, and there are three sergeant drummers holding drumsticks and ready to beat the drums at any time.

On the edge of the platform is a three-meter-high wooden pole, and a large military flag floats at the top. Inside the black circle is a big "Zhang", and the apricot yellow flag is fluttering in the wind.

The entire formation is five miles in a radius, with a sharp cone shape. The military flags in the field flutter in the wind, the atmosphere is solemn and murderous intent is exuding.

Zhang Dingbian is indeed a veteran in using troops. The entire defense system is airtight, and there are advances and retreats. When one side falls, someone will immediately make up for it, progressing layer by layer, and endless.

The fiery red sun hangs high in the sky, and these soldiers wear a wide sun hat on their heads. If the battle begins, they will throw away the cool hats on their heads and rush forward. On the contrary, Fu Youde's army does not have this treatment, and most soldiers show their heads against the sun.

There was a large bucket of water among ten Han soldiers. When someone was thirsty, he would scoop a scoop of water to drink. There would never be a rush to drink water.

Tens of thousands of people were silent, like wooden poles inserted there, with a good momentum.

Looking at these neat and orderly arrangements, Fu Youde had to admire Zhang Dingbian's good governance of the army. Although he had a large number of people, he was even worse than the formation in front of him. Although he had won a great victory, there were many surrendered soldiers, and he didn't have time to rectify it. It would take some time to train so regularly.

Chen Li on the city tower also stood at the highest point, looking at the enemy troops in the distance.

The enemy soldiers were numerous and powerful, stretching for dozens of miles. The swords and guns in front were clear and ready for battle. The back was busy camping seemed messy.

They obviously did not take the Han army seriously, and they did whatever they should do without any fear.

A large number of people are not only strong but also courageous.

Chen Li turned to Zou Pusheng and said, "Taishu, look at Fu Youde's army."

Zou Pusheng said: "Although they can't see the specific people clearly from afar, they can see that they are slow to move and call around and know that these soldiers have not yet been adjusted and should be surrendered."

Chen Li has a very good eye now, and she can see the other party clearly, and even the expressions on their faces are clearly visible.

He nodded and said, "The Grand Master said it very well. They rushed all the way and grabbed a lot of things. You see, everyone is full of bulging, and some are carrying small bags. Do you think that in this battle, is it important to fight bravely or to protect their own property?"

Zou Pusheng said: "If they see victory, they will fight bravely. If they fail, they will naturally scatter and hold their pockets to escape."

Chen Li sighed: "Since they will do this, our soldiers are almost the same. If there is hope for victory, they will of course do their best. If there is no hope, they will also run away. At that time, no one will be able to stop it."

Zou Pusheng said: "Yes, people can only have confidence and motivation when they see hope. Even ministers cannot avoid this psychological pressure."

Chen Li looked at Zou Pusheng playfully and said, "The Grand Master now see if I have hope?"

Zou Pusheng first gave Chen Li a deep bow, then looked at Chen Li and said, "I'm not hiding it. Before I saw the King of Han, I did give up the idea of ​​holding on for a while, but gradually, I suddenly had confidence. In the future, I absolutely believe that the King of Han will give me the greatest hope."

"Even if you see the enemy army that is several times larger than me on the other side, and Zhu Yuanzhang's army followed closely, I absolutely believe that the King of Han can give everyone a big surprise. The King of Han will never lose here, let alone Zhu Yuanzhang."

Chen Li laughed and said, "Taoshi, you really have the vision. How could I lose to Zhu Chongba? Since I will never lose to him, I will never lose the battle at the moment. I am sent by the gods in heaven. If Zhu Chongba is just a mortal, how can I beat the gods?"

Zou Pusheng knelt down and bowed to Chen Li, saying, "I believe that the King of Han was sent by God to save the people of the world. The King of Han will definitely become the emperor who has never been before and has never come."

Chen Li said intimately that Zou Pusheng really has vision, has superhuman knowledge, is respectful and beneficial to him at all times, and is a good seedling. He will be the position of prime minister in the future.

Hua Xiaoyun rushed to Lijiahe before dawn.

Fortunately, now is the hottest time in the south. The water in the river is not only not cool, but it is very cool when soaked in it.

Five thousand people arrived here, avoiding the reeds and trying not to be stepped on them. They all got deep into the reeds, soaking their whole body in their hands, leaving only one head outside.

Hua Xiaoyun directed everyone to hide it. He, Lu Shan, Lu Lin and several commanders, stood on the river bank and looked carefully to make sure that the people outside could not see it. Then he went into the water and helped the reeds that were obviously stepped on one by one.

Lu Lin turned his head and suddenly saw a figure flashing not far away. He said to Hua Xiaoyun: "Head, it looks like a person over there."

Hua Xiaoyun turned around and saw no one, saying, "Are you sure?"

Lu Lin nodded.

Hua Xiaoyun waved his hand, Lu Shan and Lu Lin followed him and touched him.

Sure enough, in a ditch fifty feet away, two people were lying, an old man and a child less than ten years old.

The man and the child were lying in the mud, looking up at the person in front of him.

Hua Xiaoyun said coldly: "Who are you and what are you doing here?"

The man stood up tremblingly, wiped the scared cold sweat with his sleeves with mud, and stuttered, "The villain wants to get up early to catch some mud snails and sell them in the morning session to supplement the household expenses."

Hua Xiaoyun stared at the man and said, "What did you see?"

The man said, "I...I..."

He didn't know whether to tell the truth or lie. To be honest, he didn't know what the person in front of him would do to him. He lies. People knew that this was a lie, which made him not know what to do.

Hua Xiaoyun suddenly said in a gentle tone: "Tell me, what did you see?"

When the man saw Hua Xiaoyun's attitude improve, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Mr. Jun, I know you are fighting, and I saw nothing."

Hua Xiaoyun's tone became gentler and said, "You clearly saw something, why did you say you didn't see it?"

The man quickly changed his words and said, "I saw Jun Ye hiding here with many people, but I won't say it."

Hua Xiaoyun said: "That's right. Can you guarantee not to tell me?"

The man quickly promised.

Hua Xiaoyun suddenly drew her sword and stabbed her into the man's heart with one knife.

The man's eyes were wide open, and his eyes were filled with fear.

Hua Xiaoyun slowly pulled out the knife to let the man's blood flow out slowly to prevent it from splashing on him.

The child looked at Hua Xiaoyun and cried in fear.

Hua Xiaoyun covered his mouth and raised the knife in his hand.

Before his knife could be stabbed, Lu Shan grabbed his wrist.

Lu Shan's eyes were full of anger and he said, "Why did you kill him?"

Hua Xiaoyun said coldly: "He is a detailed work."

Lu Shan sneered: "It's obviously an ordinary person who grabs mud snails, why do you say he's a detailed work?"

Hua Xiaoyun looked at Lu Shan and said, "How do you know that he is not doing it in detail? Do you have any evidence?"

Lu Shan was stopped and said angrily: "Does he look like a fine work?"

Hua Xiaoyun said: "Then tell me what kind of work is like? You have also been a robber and walked on the street. Have others said you are a robber?"

When Lu Shan walked on the street, of course no one said he was a robber because he was pretty handsome, but he was encountered by Chen Li in robbery, which was something that could not be quibble.

Lu Shan was so angry that he couldn't speak. Lu Lin was a little dissatisfied and said, "Okay, even if you are right, you can't kill a child."

Hua Xiaoyun said: "What will this child think if you kill a child's father? He will remember you all his life and will always hate you. As long as he has the chance, he will definitely kill you. Since this happens, will it be better to never suffer?"

Lu Lin looked at Hua Xiaoyun suddenly with chills all over. He realized that this person who was silent in front of him was a terrible person, so it would be better to stay away from him.

Hua Xiaoyun didn't blink, and stabbed the child in the heart with a knife, slowly pulled out the knife, and said coldly: "This battle is related to the life and death of tens of thousands of people. The master will never allow any mistakes. If our actions are known by the enemy, the master will lose an arm, and you'd better remember it."
