In the forest path, two figures flashed with the sound of weapons attacking each other, and swords collided, and the sharp energy dispersed, causing the surrounding flowers, plants and trees to be cut off in half, making it a mess.

"Brother Dingshan, that Fan Lihua is really your senior brother? Kung Fu is really good. You can fight like this with my father!" Luo Zhang approached Xue Dingshan, who was watching the battle seriously, whispered: "Hmph, I really can't figure out how my mother in Lishan took a man from Xiliang as her disciple."

He looked at Xue Dingshan who looked at Luo Zhang and couldn't help but frown: "What's wrong with the people of Xiliang? Luo Zhang, the rebellion in Xiliang was mainly initiated by people of equal ambitiousness like Su Bao, and many civilians and even soldiers in Xiliang may not be determined to follow Su Bao and rebel."

"But, Fan Lihua came to stop the imperial army, why didn't she help Su Baotong?" Luo Zhang couldn't help but say.

Xue Dingshan looked at Luo Tong and Fan Lihua in the fierce battle and shook his head and said, "No, Lihua is not that kind of person! There should be other reasons for her coming to see me."

"What's the reason? It's just to delay time for Su Baotong," Luo Zhang was very resentful: "Just now, her subordinates showed no mercy and almost killed me."

"That's because you're too owed!" Xue Dingshan glared at Luo Zhang angrily: "You have also seen that Lihua and Uncle Luo can fight in a similar way. You are no match for her at all. If she is determined to kill you, you should be the dead soul under her sword without waiting for Uncle Luo and I to come."

Luo Zhang was stunned when he heard this, and then muttered depressedly: "Seeing that she is young, I didn't expect that she is so strong! Brother Ding Shan. I am also a good one among the younger generations, but it's really shameful to compare with you!"

"Just know! So, you have to work harder," Xue Dingshan said with a light smile on his lips.

After hearing what Xue Dingshan said, Luo Zhang couldn't help but feel even more depressed and looked at Xue Dingshan with resentment and speechlessness.

"Hmm? Uncle Luo seems to be angry and is really good," Xue Dingshan's sudden voice immediately caused Luo Zhang to turn his head and look at the place where Luo Tong and Fan Lihua fought.

The gun shadow flipped like a dragon turning over. The head was protruding like a poisonous snake spitting out a letter, strange and sharp, with a mysterious smell. The air trembled, and the buzzing sounded, piercing Fan Lihua.

The sword in his left hand collided slightly with the spear tip, and Fan Lihua, whose delicate body trembled slightly. The sword in his hand was actually swept aside by the strange force of the spear. The middle door suddenly opened wide.

Fan Lihua, whose pretty face changed slightly, quickly waved her sword with her right hand to block it, and at the same time, she used the force to dodge her back and retreated.

"Don't go! Take another shot!" Luo Tong, who was so fierce and his eyes were like lightning, followed closely. The spear in his hand poked out again. The shot without a trace of fireworks made people unable to help but tighten all over, and an inexplicable chill and incomparable feeling arose in his heart.

Fan Lihua, whose beautiful eyes shrank, drew a semicircular arc with her hands holding the sword. The sword energy like silk and fog caused the space to be slightly shaken and twisted. She met Luo Tong's silent shot.

No sound sounded, and at the point where the guns and swords were about to collide and intersect, the space seemed to be stirred to form an energy vortex, and a circle of ripples of air spread out.

"No! Retreat quickly!" Xue Dingshan's face changed on the horse's back. While shouting softly, he jumped off the horse and came to the front of the army. The Fangtian Painted Ridge in his hand turned into phantoms, as if forming a huge shield, and the space seemed to be stagnant.

The terrifying explosion of energy sounded, and wherever the air ripples passed, trees shattered into wood chips, stones shattered into powder, and even the soil on the ground was lifted up. In an instant, the entire forest path was in a mess, with smoke and dust rolling.

Although the terrifying energy impact was blocked by Xue Dingshan, the energy dispersed still caused a terrible storm, making the Tang soldiers behind him seem to be trapped in a storm, and they were blown upside down one by one.

"Lu!" Luo Zhang, who stabilized his anxious war horse, couldn't help but look at the scene in a daze, and then looked nervously at the place where Luo Tong and Fan Lihua were fighting. How were the two of them doing such a terrible encounter?

The smoke and dust slowly dissipated, and everyone also saw two figures standing opposite each other on the messy ground in front of them.

Luo Tong was slightly embarrassed, his armor was broken and broken, and his hair became even more messy. His hands holding the spear and his arms were slightly trembling. Blood was oozing from the tiger's mouth, leaving behind the gun rod, and his face was slightly pale.

On the other hand, Fan Lihua, holding a sword in both hands, was obviously much better. She was not confused or injured on her body. Instead, her heroic spirit with a sharp smell was heartbreaking!

"General Luo is very skilled in martial arts, and Li Hua admires him!" Fan Li Hua, who stood with his sword, bowed to Luo Tong and said politely.

Luo Tong, who was smiling bitterly, also bowed back: "Miss Fan is young and has such martial arts. Luo Tong feels inferior to him and is willing to give up the disadvantage!"

"General Luo, I offended him!" Fan Lihua bowed and apologized again.

Seeing this, Luo Tong didn't know how to say anything more. He silently withdrew his gun and turned back on his war horse.

Xue Dingshan nodded slightly against Luo Tong, who was driving back from the horse, and walked straight towards Fan Lihua with the Fang Tian Painted Spear in his hand.

"Senior Brother Dingshan!" Facing Luo Zhangying's agitated Fan Lihua, she looked at Xue Dingshan who was walking towards her, but became a little nervous and nervous.

"Come with me!" Xue Dingshan, who passed by Fan Lihua, looked at her and said softly, and continued to walk forward.

Fan Lihua was stunned for a moment, and then followed with joy.

Seeing Luo Tong's arms trembling slightly on the horse's back, Luo Zhang couldn't help but hurriedly rode his horse to Luo Tong and asked nervously and concernedly: "Father, are you okay?"

"What can I do?" Luo Tong glared at Luo Zhang angrily.

Luo Zhang, who was a little embarrassed, turned to Xue Dingshan and Fan Lihua who were talking softly in front of him, and frowned and said, "Father! What do you think Fan Lihua is going to do? She and Brother Dingshan seem to have a good relationship. Will it affect Brother Dingshan's plan for this Western Expedition?"

"Don't worry, Ding Shan has a proper position, so don't worry about that leisure here!" Luo Tong looked at Luo Zhang with a frown slightly: "If you have that leisure, it's better to practice your marksmanship more. Miss Fan is showing mercy. You haven't even insisted on a few moves, it's really embarrassing!"

Luo Zhang was depressed and helpless when he heard this, he said, "Father, you are not even me!"

Luo Zhang, who was speaking, faced Luo Tong's somewhat sharp and unkind gaze, his tone suddenly weakened.

"Father, your son is not bad! My martial arts are almost as good as you did back then, right? Unfortunately, I don't have any teacher to teach you, otherwise I wouldn't have been so bad," Luo Zhang turned a little unwillingly and said again.

"Hmm?" Luo Tong couldn't help but brow: "Is it not good to teach my father?"

When Luo Zhang heard this, he really wanted to slap himself. He quickly smiled and said, "Okay, okay! My father taught me well. Otherwise, your son, I would not be the best junior among the Chang'an generals, right?"

"Just count first? You can even force three!" Luo Tong turned his eyes to Luo Zhang in anger.

Luo Zhang turned red and saw Shan Ximu who was smiling not far away from the side. He was immediately angry: "Shan Ximu, why are you laughing at? You just have a great teacher, isn't it amazing?"

"Uh?" Shan Ximu was stunned for a moment, then looked at Luo Zhang, shook his head and smiled and said nothing.

Luo Tong slapped Luo Zhang's head in anger: "Why is that so much nonsense? If you want to improve your strength, this Western Expedition is your chance. If you fight more enemy generals, you will naturally find your shortcomings and hone your marksmanship. When your grandfather and your father were young, they all made a reputation by using the gun in their hand stained with countless blood."

"Father, no matter how powerful I am, I can't catch up with Brother Ding Shan." Luo Zhang's helpless and despairing words made Luo Tong stare at him, but he was helpless. Catching up with Xue Ding Shan? How can there be so many evil talents in this world?

As Luo Tong and his son spoke, Xue Dingshan and Fan Lihua seemed to have talked about the important points ahead. Xue Dingshan frowned and looked pondering, and then nodded and said something to Fan Lihua after a while.

Fan Lihua bowed to Xue Dingshan with joy, turned her hands and got on the horse, turned her head and left.

"Dingshan, how about it? Then what did Fan Lihua say?" Seeing Xue Dingshan come back, Luo Tong asked first.

Luo Zhang curled his lips and said, "What is the ability and effect? ​​It is mostly related to the battle in Suoyang City."

"Lihua is indeed coming for the battle in Suoyang City!" Xue Dingshan nodded slightly and said, "This time, Lihua was ordered by Lishan's mother to mediate this battle and hope to resolve this war. Lihua has agreed and went to the Soviet camp outside Suoyang City to persuade Su Baotong to withdraw his troops and ask us to temporarily delay our advance."

Luo Zhang sneered when he heard this, "It's true! To put it nicely, who did she think she was? If Su Baotong could listen to her, she wouldn't have flashed the rebellion of King Xiliang."

"Ding Shan, this is indeed a bit ridiculous! Do you think Fan Lihua has this ability?" Luo Tong also frowned.

Xue Dingshan, who was unquestionable, turned over and looked at Suoyang City ahead and said with a sharp look: "It is indeed not that easy to stop this war. I don't have much hope for Lihua. However, since she is willing, why not give it a try? Even if she cannot succeed, she can temporarily confuse Su Baotong. This battle is not a pity. If she can really defeat the enemy without fighting, it will be the best."

"A soldier who defeated others without fighting?" Luo Zhang shook his head and said, "Su Baotong, isn't a good person! Then Fan Lihua is really a big heart. If she doesn't succeed this time, she may offend Su Baotong, that's it."

On the side, Luo Tong, who frowned when he heard this, couldn't help but look at Luo Zhang: "I'm finally willing to use my brain."

"Pear Hua? I forgot this!" Xue Dingshan's expression also changed: "If Pear Hua did not convince her successfully, if Su Baotong was damaging to Pear Hua, then that would be fine."

Luo Zhang smiled a little gloatingly: "Among the troops, you can't escape even if you can. Let her show off!"

"Okay, say less! I'll be proud of you just by praising you," Luo Tong frowned and glared at Luo Zhang.

On the side, Shan Ximu, who saw Xue Dingshan's anxious and worried expression on his face, said, "Marson, Miss Fan is the disciple of Lihua's mother, and she must be extraordinary in methods. Then Su Baotong should not be able to keep her."

"I hope!" Xue Dingshan looked at Shan Ximu, and felt a little relieved.

Luo Tong hurriedly said, "Ding Shan, why don't you catch up and stop her? I always feel that it is unrealistic to let Su Baotong retreat."

"It's not impossible!" Shan Ximu shook his head and said, "If Su Baotong withdrew this time, we will have to worry more."

Luo Zhang frowned and looked at Shan Ximu with dissatisfaction: "Shan Ximu. What do you mean?"

Xue Dingshan and Luo Tong were both silent with their eyes flashing.

"Indeed!" Xue Dingshan, who nodded slightly after a moment, couldn't help but take a deep breath: "The two-way army of the imperial court has arrived. If he cooperates with the army in Suoyang City inside and outside, even if Su Baotong has hundreds of thousands of troops, he will not be able to gain any advantage. If he doesn't do it well, he will suffer heavy losses. If he can decisively retreat and preserve his strength at this time, I would have to look up to him a little bit."

Shan Ximu shook his head and continued, "What a pity! Su Baotong is so arrogant and thinks he is smart. He wants him to withdraw his troops. The possibility is not high. With his madness, he will probably fight to the death with us. If I am not wrong, he will stabilize Fan Lihua. Let her send us a message, let us stop the march, but on the same side, attack Suoyang City with all its might."

"What?" Luo Zhang glared at him: "Will this Su Baotong be so shameless?"

Luo Tong shook his head and said in a deep voice: "The soldiers are never tired of deceit! For Su Baotong, if he cannot break through Suoyang City, he will face an unfavorable situation. In order to reverse the situation, he is completely possible."

"Hiss!" Luo Zhang, who gasped in a cold breath, couldn't help but hurriedly said, "Marson, what should we do now?"

Xue Dingshan, who pondered a little, said decisively: "Stop rest, accumulate energy, and send a cyclist to investigate the movements of Suoyang City."

"What, still rest?" Luo Zhang stared at him and felt anxious: "Marson. Suoyang City is in danger!"

Luo Tong pulled Luo Zhang down and said angrily: "Of course the Marshal knows that Suoyang City is in danger. However, sharpening the knife will not delay the chopping of wood! The little brat. Learn more. Just rely on your passion to fight, you will only be a general's material in your life!"

"A general is a general, I didn't want to be a marshal again! It's enough to have Brother Ding Shan, a marshal in the Tang Dynasty," Luo Zhang smiled and said, "We will all follow Brother Ding Shan in the future."

Luo Tong completely lost the mood to teach him a lesson if Luo Zhang was useless.

"Okay! Luo Zhang, go down and instruct the soldiers to rest and eat some dry food. The military situation is urgent, so I don't care about burying the pot and making rice. When the danger to Suoyang City is relieved, I will reward the soldiers of the three armies again," Xue Dingshan ordered with a faint smile.

Luo Zhang responded and hurriedly rode his horse toward the rear army: "The Marshal has an order, rest on the spot! Brothers, eat some dry food and rest well. We will deal with the Soviet army outside Suoyang City in one go and unlock the danger of Yangcheng. At that time, everyone will be heroes, and the Emperor and Marshal Xue will reward the three armies well."

Listening to Luo Zhang's words, the soldiers immediately responded with excitement and loud voices, and their morale was greatly boosted.

"This kid does look like a general," Luo Tong couldn't help but smile with emotion when he saw this.

Xue Dingshan smiled and said, "Uncle Luo, Luo Zhang is actually very good. Don't be too harsh on him!"

"If I hadn't been strict discipline over the years, it would be hard to say what he would be like," Luo Tong shook his head and said, "As a soldier, you should have the strictest standards. Fighting is not a house, and a slight mistake may affect the entire battle situation. A general is incompetent and exhausts the three armies! If Zhang'er does not have this ability, even if I let him go back to be a playboy, I don't want him to die on the battlefield, and I will cut off my Luo family's bloodline."

After hearing Luo Tong say this, Xue Dingshan couldn't help but bow to him in his heart: "Uncle Luo teaches him!"

"Hey! Ding Shan, I don't mean to teach you," Luo Tong waved his hand and smiled, "I'm satisfied with you as a marshal. I believe that in this battle in Suoyang City, you will definitely be able to lead us to defeat Su Baotong and save the emperor and the trapped army in the West. The tiger father has no dog son. If your father knows, he will be relieved."

"Father?" Xue Dingshan couldn't help looking at Suoyang City with a worried look when he heard this: "I don't know how my father's cold poison is. I hope he can hold on and there will be no problem!"

Luo Tong hurriedly said, "Don't worry! Ding Shan! Brother Xue is lucky and has no trouble. Now, we should focus on the same battle with Su Bao, and we must not be distracted."

"Uncle Luo, I understand!" Xue Dingshan, who nodded slightly, couldn't help but say, "General Shan, go and have a look again, prepare properly, and there is no omission."

"Yes!" Shan Ximu responded, looked at Xue Dingshan before riding his horse. After following Xue Dingshan these days, he had to admit that the young man in front of him, who was younger than him, had the ability and charm of a marshal.

Seeing Shan Ximu leaving, Luo Tong, who had a complex look flashed in his eyes, couldn't help but sigh.
