Li Qile turned around and shouted: "Hu Zhonglang!"

It was a bit far away, so Hu Zong didn't hear it.

Li Qi ordered the soldiers to blow their horns, and there was a "crow" sound. Hu Zong was so frightened that he quickly turned around to see what was going on.

Li Qi stepped forward and said: "The former made an agreement with Hu Zhonglang that there should be no war until the hostages are exchanged. Now that the hostages have been exchanged, how about a fight?"

Hu Zong was shocked and angry. What was shocking was that he was completely unprepared for a fight now. What was angry was that since the hostage deal had been completed, if you, Li Qi, wanted to fight, just do it suddenly. You even came here to remind me,

Are you a truly benevolent teacher, or do you look down on us?

However, the brave will win when they meet on a narrow road. Since a battle is unavoidable, Hu Zong must not give in, otherwise the whole team will collapse.

In fact, Li Qi didn't bring many people with him on this trip. Everyone was equally matched. You have Zhao Yun and I have Zhu Ran, so just do it!

Li Qi's reputation for fighting against the Five Scums was so great that Hu Zong was sure that he could kill Li Qi with just one strike of his sword. However, when he saw Ma Yunluo standing next to Li Qi with a heroic figure, sharp eyes, and a spear in his hand, he said: "In that case,

You and I should return to the formation first, and then we can fight."

Li Qi cupped his hands and said, "Be particular about it."

Although there are not many men and horses, Li Qi brought all the elite soldiers just in case, and with a strong general like Zhao Yun charging into the battle, it will not be a problem to defeat Hu Zong's mixed army of county guards and thieves. Not to mention Zhang San

Having said that, someone on the other side will betray you along the way.

After the leaders of both sides returned to the formation, they beat drums and attacked. However, they saw dust rising, flags fluttering, and the open space was instantly covered with bloody corpses and fallen generals' flags.

Zhao Yun let his horse gallop, and blood mist flew everywhere he passed.

The little leader of the thieves who came with Hu Zong to exchange hostages was originally ordered by Peng Qi to retreat on the battlefield.

But before he left, he wanted to gain credit and achieve better development in the new camp, so he made a private agreement with the thieves to use the small yellow flag as a signal to see if he could capture Hu Zong or Zhu Ran in the chaos.

First level. If it is accomplished, it will be a great achievement.

At this moment, when the little leader saw Zhao Yun's attitude, he was afraid that he would be picked off by Zhao Yun before he even got close to Hu Zong.

In order to express his position and to kill Hu Zong in the chaos, the little leader threw away the battle flag of Jiangdong Army and took out a small yellow flag from his arms. When the thieves saw the signal, they immediately understood that the signal had changed.

In an instant, they turned against Jiang Dongbing.

Of course, there was a group of thieves who did not see the signal flag in the melee and just kept retreating one after another. They were accidentally killed by Jiangdong soldiers or Jingzhou soldiers who did not know where they were.

Li Qi was dizzy when he saw it from a distance, and asked Zhang San: "Who arranged this plan?"

Zhang San replied seriously: "Hui Bing, my lord, this was planned by Peng Qi personally."

Li Qi shook his head helplessly. If he had to use one word to describe it, it would be: a complete mess!

In the melee, the Jingzhou soldiers couldn't tell whether the thief should be killed or not. After fighting for a while, they finally determined that the thief had no intention of attacking them;

The same thing happened to Jiang Dongbing in the melee. It wasn't until his comrades around him were inexplicably hacked to death by thieves that he discovered that the thieves had betrayed him.

However, the ones who suffered the greatest losses were neither the Jingzhou soldiers nor the Jiangdong soldiers, but the group of thieves.

The thieves were attacked by Jingzhou soldiers at first, and then counterattacked by Jiangdong soldiers. Just before Hu Zong and Zhu Ran escaped, there was a Jingzhou soldier and a Jiangdong soldier working together to kill a thief.

After the thieves, they looked at each other and smiled, then were stunned: Not one of our own?

Li Qi sighed repeatedly, these dead people were all his reserve forces.

But what can I do? There is no loudspeaker to say hello.

I can only stop treating them as my own before accepting Peng Qi, so that I will feel better.

Hu Zong and Zhu Ran fled after being defeated. His first reaction was to return to Jieyang, but then he thought about it and Hu Zong said: "Just now some thieves took advantage of the chaos to attack the Jieyang defenders. I expected that Peng Qi had rebelled, and they couldn't go to Jieyang." Then he left.

Shangrao.

But Peng Qi took control of Jieyang City and densely deployed archers on the city tower, waiting for the return of Hu Zong's remnants of troops.

But by the afternoon, Hu Zong had not returned to the city.

Peng Qi felt something was wrong, things did not develop as she expected.

It stands to reason that the Jieyang garrison led by Hu Zong is not many. If his thieves retreat, Hu Zong's troops should be vulnerable.

The combat effectiveness of Li Qi's Jingzhou soldiers wouldn't be so bad, right?

After another hour, I saw birds flying in fright outside the city, dust was rising, and a large army was arriving.

The troops led by Li Qi were in good order, and it looked like they were not the remnants of Hu Zong. This made Peng Qi confused again: since Li Qi came victorious, why did Hu Zong not return to Jieyang? Did he see through his plan?

?

Peng Qi joined Li Qi, first dedicated Jieyang City to Li Qi, and then showed her loyalty.

Li Qi immediately appointed Peng Qi as the new guard general of Jieyang City, and ordered him to rectify the army and recruit young people who were good at fighting into the team. He had four to five thousand men, and the rest stayed in Jieyang to do some logistics work, such as repairing equipment.

, reclaiming land and the like.

Later, Li Qi expressed Zhang San's contribution, saying: "You should be the first to recruit Peng Qi, occupy Jieyang, and drive away Hu Zong this time. Today I will reward you well."

After that, he asked the private chef to cook a sumptuous fish and crab dinner.

Zhang San cried when he saw it.

Li Qi asked strangely: "Why are you crying? If you have any difficulties, just tell me."

Zhang San looked at his plate in front of him and said: "My master exchanged the famous Jiangdong general Zhu Ran for San'er, a useless person. San'er is so touched!"

Li Qi comforted and said: "You and I have known each other for more than ten years, and we know each other very well. In someone's eyes, who is useful and who is useless, there is no need for others to judge. Come on, give San'er another fish and crab feast."

Shocking."

Zhang San: "..."

Suddenly someone came to report: "Lu Xun's army has arrived at Yushan."

Li Qi asked: "Where is Yushan?"

The subordinates hurriedly went to get a map to look at it. Peng Qi said: "Yushan is located dozens of miles northeast of Shangrao. It has strange rocks and strange peaks. It is easy to defend but difficult to attack."

Pang Tong said: "According to Lu Xun's character, he should be able to defend Yushan."

Li Qi nodded. If Lu Xun went to Shangrao to join Zhou Li in order to rescue Poyang County, not only would he lose his defensive advantage, but if Yushan was captured by Li Qi and Jieyang was in the hands of Li Qi, then Shangrao would become a ruined city.

An isolated city with supplies.

What is an isolated city?

That is, the more people there are, the faster they will die.

Therefore, Li Qi agreed with Pang Tong's point of view and believed that Lu Xun would not give up Yushan.

Li Qi asked Peng Qi: "Are you familiar with the terrain of Yushan?"

Peng Qi said: "Qi Bucai was doing something in Yushan. It's just... haha, the stragglers lost to Jiangdong's regular army and were chased out."

Li Qidao: "In that case, you can also serve as the guide for the army. When Lu Xun is defeated, you will be credited."

In the nine counties of Jiangdong, Li Qi has already won three and a half.

As long as Lu Xun's main force is defeated, it will be easy to take over Jiangdong.
