Chapter Eight
When the soldiers saw the San Ling tribe retreating, they kept shouting. At this time, the young general came to Li Xiao and knelt on one knee and said, "Thank you for your life-saving kindness. Runfeng is very grateful, but I don't know who the general is?"
Li Xiao looked at Runfeng and liked him very much, and said, "You are Runfeng?"
"It's just that the general knows me?" Runfeng asked.
"Lu Yongsheng, is this General Runfeng you mentioned?" Li Xiao pointed to Lu Yongsheng next to him and said.
"Yes, General Li, that's him." After Lu Yongsheng said that, he walked towards Runfeng, and then told Runfeng about the past few days, how Hou Mayuan died in battle, how Li Xiao saved them with less victory, Runfeng heard this, walked to Li Xiao and knelt down and said, "General, Runfeng is willing to follow the general to fight the enemy, I don't know if the general can take it in."
After hearing this, Li Xiao smiled and said, "Let me ask you, how do you learn this martial arts at such a young age? How do you understand military tactics?"
Runfeng replied: "I have been an orphan since I was a child. Thanks to General Hou taking it in, he taught me martial arts, taught me to read and write, and taught me the art of war. Now General Hou is gone. If we can follow the general to fight the enemy, it will be a big wish."
"Okay, Runfeng, can you be my deputy general?" Li Xiao helped Runfeng up and said,
"I can't find it, I'm willing to follow the general," Runfeng said
Li Xiao inquired about the terrain of Shujun and learned that the South Gate was the weakest. Li Xiao ordered people to clean up and arrange the queue, and found that there were already 3,000 troops. At this time, Li Xiao was secretly happy. He expanded from 80 to 3,000 people, and he was more confident in recovering the lost land.
Li Xiao and others came to the village not far from the city of Shujun, ordered people to explore the terrain, visit the San Ling defenders in Shujun and Dongning, and searched for people to return. The garrisons of Shujun were 6,000, and Dongning defenders were 6,000. Li Xiao knew that Shujun was the only food road leading to Zixuan, so he thought in his mind, "If you attack Shujun, Dongning will come to support, then the eldest brother and others will definitely be able to attack Dongning."
Li Xiao called the soul-breaking King Kong over and asked, "Two senior brothers, how many days will we have to make our 20-day appointment with the senior brother?"
Duanhun thought for a while and said, "Not counting today, there are still five days left. Xiao'er, we are probably attacking Shujun..."
"Second Brother, don't worry, I have my own qualities. I believe the elder brother and the others should be coming to Dongning soon, so there is no need to be late." After saying that, Li Xiao called Runfeng and Lu Yongsheng over and said to the two: "Lu Yongsheng, tomorrow, you will bring a thousand men to the front of the Shujun City to challenge and find a way to anger them. If they go out of the city to fight, you must not fight with them. Escape to the hinterland in the east, and they will not dare to chase them."
"General, how can I lead the troops? This, this?" Lu Yongsheng looked at Li Xiao awkwardly.
Li Xiao smiled and said, "Tomorrow, you will wear my armor, ride my white horse, and hold my flag. Just treat yourself as me. Remember not to fight with me."
Lu Yongsheng took the order and said, "If the general looks at me so much, I will definitely live up to the general."
Li Xiao said to Runfeng again: "Runfeng, you bring the remaining two thousand men and make straw men overnight. Do as much as you can tonight. After dawn, put the armor on your body on the straw men, put the straw men in the hinterland in the east and make an ambush."
Runfeng said understandingly: "General, don't worry, let's do it now." After that, Runfeng took the people to move. The soul broke down, and the Vajra looked at each other and nodded.
The next day, Lu Yongsheng brought more than a thousand people to the south gate of Shujun city, and shouted at the San Ling army on the city: "I am the general of the human race expedition, Li Xiao, you three beasts dare to invade my territory. You are tactful and abandon the city and surrender quickly. Otherwise, when you break the city, you will cut down all your beast heads and use them as chamber pots."
The defenders on the city were furious when they heard this. The people of the Three Spirits hated other races to call themselves beast races, bastards and other words. "Shooting arrows" someone shouted in the city, and saw arrows falling like rain. Because Lu Yongsheng and his friends stood far away, the arrows could not reach them. Lu Yongsheng led everyone to laugh, "Hahaha, bastards are bastards, looking at the big and thick, the arrows shot were not as good as those of our human race. Hey, bastards in the city, what are you mixed with, what are you looking so ugly." Lu Yongsheng shouted and scolded for a long time, but there was no reaction in the city. Li Xiao was watching from a distance, laughing in his heart, "Lu Yongsheng, Lu Yongsheng, you are so ugly, the Three Spirits Army is not simple, and you won't come out of the city rashly. You will be nice to you in two days."
"The bastards in the city, aren't you fierce? Are you not wild beasts? Come down and bite me. Grandpa's guns are just picking up the likes of you. Look at your cowards, you can see that they are raised by the little girl. Beasts, you guys are coming down..." Lu Yongsheng and others cursed from morning to night. There was no reaction in the city, so they could only withdraw their troops. When they came back, they said, "General, we call one day's formation, they ignored it." Li Xiao said, "No hurry, continue calling tomorrow, Runfeng, how many grass man made?" "More than two thousand" "Okay, continue tomorrow"
On the second and third days, two consecutive days of yelling and scolding were fruitless. Lu Yongsheng looked at Li Xiao in a dilemma and said, "Please punish the general, I can't anger them." Li Xiao smiled and said, "It's okay, Runfeng will go and scold tomorrow. Runfeng, how many straw men make?" "Return to the general, more than ten thousand." Runfeng said, Li Xiao said, "It's great, everyone will go and scold tomorrow. Runfeng, if the enemy leaves the city, you must not fight."
On the fourth day, three thousand men came to yell. Lu Yongsheng was about to yell and scold, but saw that the gate of Shujun opened wide. The San Ling army rushed out of the city, with 10,000 men. Runfeng was shocked. Thinking of Li Xiao's words, he ordered the retreat. Everyone fled to the hinterland in the east, but the San Ling army did not pursue it.
After returning to the camp, Runfeng said to Li Xiao: "General, now the number of garrisons in Shu County has doubled, and the fighter planes have been delayed. We may not be able to break through Shu County. I wonder what the general's intention is?"
Seeing Runfeng having questions, Li Xiao said, "Who said he wanted to attack Shujun? I'm just bluffing here. Runfeng, you go and pick two hundred people who are good at riding and shooting, and the rest of the people rushed to Dongning overnight. It's urgent to wait." Then he said to Duanhun and the two King Kong, "Two senior brothers, you will take a large group of people to join the two senior brothers." He pointed to the beacon tower in the distance and said, "The beacon fire ignited, and then attacked Dongning." The two nodded and pointed their troops and left.
Li Xiao said to Runfeng: "Take a small team of people to the beacon tower. When you see a fire in the south gate of Shujun, you light the beacon and then go to the woods in the east to wait for me." Runfeng took the order
