Chapter 184 Bloody dragon spirit, dragon fights in the wild
After temporarily stopping to rest, Lou Jinpeng urgently asked all parties about the military situation.

"How's the news from Bei'an City?"

"General, everything is normal, the main force of the Zhou army is still under the city."

"Where is the side division of the silver gun Gaohu?"

"They don't have enough cavalry, and they need to go all out to block the north of the county. It seems that they don't plan to join the war."

No, no, obviously there was information sent, but Lou Jinpeng only felt that the surrounding area was surrounded by the fog of war.

"Send the order, march quickly, and return to the Tingshan camp." A sense of powerlessness emerged in his heart, and he could even guess that he was now surrounded.

"Report! Beacon smoke is igniting in the direction of Tingshan Daying Camp."

"Report, the enemy's rangers are covering and approaching, and our army's outpost is pushed back within three hundred steps of the army formation."

"Report! An unknown army appeared in the rear, all of them were in black armor, and the banner of subduing demons was erected. It should be General Subduing Demons himself!"

The vast plains and fields outside Bei'an City became the place where the two armies fought decisively.

It is said that strategic planning has evolved to the present, and it also requires a head-on confrontation of hard power.

In fact, in terms of numbers, the gap between the two sides is very large, and in terms of combat power, the gap between the two sides is even greater.

Lou Jinpeng's main force was originally Sun Yucheng's subordinate army. The quality of the outer town army was several grades lower, and with the addition of [-] miscellaneous soldiers mixed in, they barely formed an army after integration.

There are a lot of losses these days, and there are still 5000 people left, all of whom are infantry. The cavalry is only enough to serve as sentries, and the armor rate is less than [-]%.

And Zhou Bai pursues a policy of elite soldiers, needless to say the five thousand subdue demon army, the best of the best.

The other 1 people are also regular soldiers, composed of Cangbei veterans and garrison troops, and their combat strength is not weak.

The whole army wears armor, [-]% iron armor, [-]% paper armor and leather armor. The armor is sharp and the arms are complete.

Such a comparison of combat power, on the contrary, one side is like a wolf like a tiger wanting to swallow a whale, but the other side is just stubbornly resisting.

Lou Jinpeng knew his subordinates very well, and it was okay to fight a smooth battle, but if he really wanted to fight the next tough battle, he would have to cooperate with the government army in Bei'an City.

However, the Bei'an government army, which was supposed to go out of the city to meet them, could not protect themselves, because they were also fighting, but they were killing each other.

……

The county town, the house of Sun Jiazu.

A few hours ago, Yao An hurriedly found Sun Geng and demanded to do it immediately.

The [-] state troops have already marched northward, and they are about to quell the turmoil in Bei'an County with the force of thunder.

Of course, all the news came from Yao An, so Sun Geng inevitably hesitated.

"Master Sun, the Tian family has no kinship, and you, the Qianlong family, cannot be swayed by feelings, otherwise it will be difficult to do great things."

"Tiger poison doesn't eat its offspring." Sun Geng's expression changed, as if he hadn't made up his mind.

"If Mr. Sun's son already knows about the transfer of the Mandate of Heaven, what should you do?" Yao Anshun pointed out that the Sun family's ancestral house had many more patrolling soldiers and horses in the past few days, obviously it was a temporary transfer.

Sun Geng was depressed for a moment, and finally asked the biggest puzzle in his heart: "I have a question, the court or Governor Lei, why do you still believe that I will be loyal to the court when you know that I am under the dragon spirit?"

An ambitious hero in troubled times naturally has the decision he should have, but he has always doubted Zhou Li's motives.

"Master Sun should have quite a lot of contacts in the capital. Could it be that he doesn't know the most widely circulated saying, enfeoffing princes to respect Zhengshuo?"

"The imperial court doesn't need your loyalty, and is even willing to support you in establishing a small hereditary country of the Sun family, as long as you don't try to overthrow Daxu's orthodoxy."

"Governor Lei, I wish I could establish a prefecture and then guard the frontiers of Dingzhou. The central government can respect Zhengshuo, and the prefecture also..." Yao An talked eloquently, all kinds of arguments were somewhat secretive, but reasonable.

After hearing this, Sun Geng no longer hesitated, and immediately decided to do it.

At the same time, because Lou Jinpeng was about to send troops, Sun Yucheng, who didn't want to sit still, also decided to take action against his father.

In Bu Yuanzi's words, as long as he can establish a country and establish a system, the underworld will be born in a blessed land, and the family will only be proud of him.

As for Sun Geng, he can posthumously title him, and he can still live a long life like a god.

Filial piety or not filial piety, human relationship and family affection are not important at this time...

However, Sun Geng took the lead in launching the attack, and Sun Yucheng was still a little caught off guard. Nearly half of the army under his command was instigated to rebel, and for a while most of the territory except the Jiedu Mansion fell into Sun Geng's control.

Fortunately, Sun Yucheng knew the importance of military power, and he had always personally controlled the most elite [-] pro-army in the yamen army.

With the father and son fighting among themselves, and the extraordinary powers of both sides daring not to intervene, Sun Jing was still unable to conquer the Jiedu Mansion.

Soon, Sun Yucheng slowly moved back to the situation and launched a counterattack by virtue of his elite and Jiedushi status.

The two sides come and go, relying on every street, and they are actually at a stalemate.

If you say that the governor and the imperial court support me, then I am the Jiedushi, and no one can do anything to me.

It's just a scandal of internal friction between father and son, but it makes the luck of both sides decline even more, and the whole city is divided.

This fight lasted until sunset and dusk, each of them lost their soldiers and generals, and the blood of the Jiedu Ya army stained Bei'an City red.

"Commander, please dispatch your troops quickly! You have been deceived, the Zhou army outside the city is not the real main force..." At this point, Lou Jinpeng's messenger entered the city desperately.

"Fifteen miles southeast of the outskirts of the city, Zhou Bai sniped. The enemy's combat power was tyrannical, and the final general could only lead his army to resist."

"If you haven't led the ya army to break through the enemy's rear when the battle reaches Xu, then we can only break out at night, or we can retain some vitality..."

Lou Jinpeng's battle report was very detailed, but Sun Yucheng looked pale.

Transporting the hero is not free. Seeing that the main force of the Zhou army outside the city has not moved, he wants to take down Sun Geng vigorously and then wait for the opportunity to move.

Sun Yucheng couldn't imagine how to deal with the next situation. He asked unwillingly: "A thousand cavalry can cover the whole territory and stop fifteen waves of your messengers?!"

The messenger said helplessly: "The enemy Taoist group did not directly participate in the war, but patrolling around the periphery and reporting the situation will not be affected too much by the military spirit."

In fact, he really wanted to replace Lou Jinpeng and ask Sun Yucheng, where is our Taoist group?
At the beginning, Wuding Daoist entered the city, and he welcomed it with great fanfare, so why didn't it play a role.

In desperation, Sun Yucheng called Bu Yuanzi to discuss with Lin Ren, and Lin Ren boldly persuaded Sun Geng to have a showdown.

And from the perspective of luck, what advice can Bu Yuanzi give.

In the end, it is necessary to regain the military power and unify the dragon's energy before they can fight to the death. Otherwise, they will lead thousands of defeated soldiers to attack the Zhou army, and they will only seek their own death.

So Sun Yucheng led the troops into battle, charged and killed himself, and wanted to fight back to his ancestral home several times. As a result, Sun Geng not only had the rebels in his hands, but also the dead soldiers who had been raised by the prefect Sun's family for many years.

Seeing that the sky was getting darker, Sun Yucheng even smelled the blood on the battlefield fifteen miles away, as if seeing the day when Bei'an City was broken.

Unable to force directly, he could only choose Lin Ren's suggestion and have a showdown with Sun Geng.

Sun Yucheng rejected all the guards, and after getting permission, he returned to the family's ancestral house under the hostile and indifferent gaze.

Once upon a time, he was the destined heir of the Sun family, but now he has turned against each other, and even the family members are fighting against each other with a knife.

In the huge family ancestral hall, only father and son are left.

"Is my mother okay?"

"She lives in the back house and misses you very much, but don't worry, she doesn't know what's going on outside."

"Father, let's do it. One hundred years of prestige and today's situation, there must be a sacrifice."

"Oh, why is this..."

No one knew what the father and son said behind it, only that it was Sun Yucheng who came out at the end.

The low aura of the entire Bei'an city was stirred up, and traces of dark red blood melted into the earthy dragon's aura.

The nine-foot dragon snake let out a sharp neigh in the southeast direction, bloodthirsty and high-spirited, and the depression that had been suppressed by the dragon carp for several days before disappeared.

"If you win this battle, you will share the glory and wealth with me. If you lose this battle, I will bury you in the loess with you!"

Wearing white filial piety, with bloodshot eyes, Sun Yucheng walked out of the city with more than ten thousand elite soldiers who were last intact in the city.

The last ray of sunset in the sky was dim, as if announcing the end of the southeast battlefield.

However, even though Sun Yucheng was anxious and eager to join the battle immediately, the Zhou army outside the city was the first hurdle he needed to cross.

Zhou Bai's personal guard commander, Qu Zhi, stayed behind at the Bei'an camp. He led five hundred of the most elite soldiers and organized the militia to be the main force.

This is one of the reasons why the abnormality has not been found in the city. Every time there is a messenger coming or going or a small army to test, it will be resolutely wiped out by Qu Zhi.

"Commander, what should we do? Sun Yucheng personally leads the army, and it seems that he is going to join the battle on the frontal battlefield." The grassroots officers in the pro-barracks immediately approached Qu Zhi for advice.

"My lord, let's fight. Our militiamen are not vegetarians. As for those who have not been trained, they don't need to go to the battlefield." A militia captain shouted that he would call for a fight.

Qu Zhi looked calm, shook his head and said: "The young and strong will withdraw first, leaving behind three thousand militiamen. My lord has given me an explanation, so it's fine to weaken the reinforcements as much as possible."

"Let them go, we only entangle the rear team!"

Seeing that the camp was tightly closed, Sun Yucheng didn't think much about it, and just verified that it was an empty shell of camouflage.

Since they dare not fight, they can save some time.

Unexpectedly, just as he led most of the yamen's army to pass by in a hurry, Qu Zhi took his own barracks and cut off the rear team like a sharp knife.

The number of people was not too large to be two thousand, and they fought with the Zhou army pouring out of the camp, and it was difficult for the two sides to distinguish the outcome in a short time.

If Sun Yucheng chooses to turn back now, he will definitely be able to kill Qu Zhi, even break through the camp, and achieve greater results.

However, the decisive battle that really determines the ownership of Bei'an County is not here.

"Master?"

"It doesn't matter, the whole army is advancing at an accelerated pace, and the Taoist officer will go ahead and inform General Lou to stand firm."

……

On the southeast battlefield, flesh and blood flew everywhere, weapons intertwined, and shouts shook the sky... The entire battlefield was filled with a strong and pungent smell of blood.

The only place where the two armies are still bright is where their respective central army banners are located, which is the command center.

The soldiers participating in the battle all rushed towards the direction of the opponent's fire, but they also tried their best to protect the fire on their own side. When the fire went out, it meant the destruction of the Chinese army.

Speaking of which, Lou Jinpeng has another advantage of the night, that is, the darker the night, the soldiers under him will not be able to see the tragedy of their own side, and they can stick to their posts.

"What? The commander just left the city?!"

The place where the Chinese army is located is heavily guarded, and every guard is a brave person selected by Lou Jinpeng himself, with a murderous aura.

Originally in this environment, the Wudingmen disciples who came to deliver the letter were extremely depressed and lazy in mana.

Facing Lou Jinpeng, who was still commanding the ten thousand troops to fight, he was almost out of breath by the chilling army, how could he answer.

Fortunately, Lou Jinpeng had communicated with Bu Yuanzi before, so he understood a little bit about these things, and ordered the guards around him to disperse before letting the messenger answer.

"The city has just undergone a major change. The old commander and the commander... Now the commander is boosting morale, and he may have the strength to mourn."

"Whether it's the Sun family, the Jiedu mansion, or our Wuding gate, we're all on top this time. You must stick to it."

Before the messenger finished speaking, the night bird flew away in shock, and the messengers from all sides sent urgent military reports one after another.

"Report, the enemy general Gao Hu led the cavalry through the third battalion, the rear army's food and supplies were destroyed, and the flanks were routed!"

"The Fumo Army is pressing in, General Sun asks for reinforcements..."

"Report, there is a small group of elite enemy troops, wearing heavy armor, coming straight to the central army. General Sun, please take shelter temporarily."

Lou Jinpeng was furious, and the veins on his forehead popped up, so he wanted to take his head directly, which is too underestimating!
Regardless of the difference between immortals and mortals, he pulled the Taoist official's messenger: "You have seen the situation, you report to the commander quickly, and within half an hour, please ask him to collect the body for me."

"Where are the soldiers? Follow me to kill the enemy!"

There was a sound of drawing a knife, he, Lou Jinpeng, was also willing to die for him.

The two army camps launched their own charges, and fought fiercely in the fierce close combat, and people died every moment.

However, most of them are Lou Jun with incomplete armor, their military literacy is not high, and their cooperation is too poor.

In this kind of nighttime combat environment, they would often fall into separate battles after being rushed by the elite of the Demon Subduing Army, and then they would be strangled to death without any power to fight back.

Zhou Bai stood on the temporary high command platform, watching the victorious battlefield situation, his heart was calm.

This is the gap between hard power and strategic planning. From the beginning to the end, Lou Jinpeng's every move is in his vision.

You said that it is not good to camp somewhere, but you have to stay at Tingshan, disturbing the peaceful sleep of the mountain god.

That person is an old acquaintance. Seeing that Zhou Bai is expected to become a dragon, and the day of Canglan River's recovery is getting closer, he will naturally help some less "important" things.

"Order, the whole army presses up, don't worry about damage anymore, the real master is coming soon."

As the luck dragon carp above his head became more and more restless, Zhou Bai drew out a command arrow and issued an order for a general attack.

"The general has an order, the whole army presses up and kills!"

The sound of killing is overwhelming, and the military spirit is boiling. On this battlefield like a meat grinder, what dies is human life, and what kills is luck.

Half an hour later, Sun Yucheng finally arrived with the government army with high morale, but what greeted them was not the scorching battlefield, but the orderly formation of the Fumo army.

Xuanjia is thick and murderous, like an army of evil spirits in the middle of the night.

There was a Dao officer who followed the army, jumped over the demon army and looked further away, the mountains and plains were full of routs, they were late after all.

"If this battle is won, I will share wealth and honor with all the lords!"

"The same is true of the real person. Don't keep any means. I promise in front of all the troops that I will give you the seal of the Wudingmen real person."

Sun Yucheng licked his lips, then grinned grinningly again: "Dragon's blood is back, Qianlong Universiade is at its peak, I don't believe it can be defeated!"
