Xu Huang's axe jumped up and slashed down with a strong wind.

The Baibo Qushou was already the leader, with a narrow mountain road and nowhere to avoid it. Seeing the big axe slashing down on the head and using a long sword to block it, it was like a mantis armed in a chariot, and he would only end up with a sword breaking and killing him.

He gritted his teeth and did not dodge. He stepped forward and met him. The sword also stabbed Xu Huang's chest. The sword in his hand was also a hundred-sharp steel sword. He fought to the death. If he directly stabbed Xu Huang's chest, he would have a certain chance to penetrate the armor and kill the armored soldier in front of him.

"ah!"

Both sides who fought for life shouted almost at the same time, but the ending was very different. Xu Huang's big axe slashed down heavily, removing Bai Bo Qu Shuai's head and an arm, while Bai Bo Qu Shuai's long sword only cut a scratch in front of Xu Huang's breastplate.

At the critical moment of life and death, his power came to an abrupt end with his life, and could only shed blood on this narrow mountain road.

"Kill, kill!"

Seeing that Xu Huang was unstoppable, he easily killed Bai Bo Qu Shuai in one fell swoop. The other soldiers behind him also shouted like thunder. Taking advantage of the opening where Xu Huang came out, he rushed in and killed Bai Bo soldiers to the ground, completely driving down the mountain road at the pass.

The commander Qu was dead and natural danger was lost. The psychological pillar that supported the Baibo soldiers to continue fighting collapsed in an instant. A large number of Baibo soldiers who were forced to retreat repeatedly simply turned around, discarded their weapons and ran away, allowing the Han army behind to charge and go deeper.

Xu Huang killed the thief leader. At this moment, he saw the enemy's retreat, and finally stopped his unstoppable steps. He looked at the battlefield where flesh and blood were blurred and corpses were everywhere, and his spirit became in a daze.

He claimed to be extraordinary bravery and ambitions. Although he was born in a despicable family, he had no good teachers and was supported by his old friends, but he did not bother to bully good and weak, and to compete with powerful surnames like those evil young men in the village. Instead, he became a sloppy and feasting official in the county government.

In the county government, even the lower-level officials were reluctant to speak and quick to act, Xu Huang also noticed signs of chaos in the world, because whenever he heard the news of border affairs being urgent or the thieves rising, he was always angry and sighed that the world was changing and his fate was tragic.

But these things are far from the rapid changes in recent times. From being ordered to escort military rations to saving people, from being chased to joining the army to serving the army, from marching to fighting in armor, in this dramatic change, he felt for the first time that he was so close to what Yan Xing said about "making achievements and making a name for the battlefield".

Xu Huang's armor was now wet inside and outside, with both his own sweat and the blood of the enemy. The situation of a man fighting for power in this fierce battle on the battlefield was so familiar and excited. He swallowed a saliva, moistening his dry throat, which was a little unbelievable.

But he quickly approached, grabbed the head of the thief who had become unrecognizable, and held it up as if he was telling himself and everyone.

"The thief leader has died. If he takes his head, he is Xu Gongming from Hedong!"

The sound waves spread around, and countless eyes were directed at this man with blood, including enemies, companions, and even shock.

Xu Kun heard the shout of "The thief leader is dead" while holding a sword in the back formation. He couldn't help laughing, then shouted, and then turned to yell at Yan Xing with a roar:

"The leader of the thief is dead, our army will win!"

Listening to the soldiers' shouts, Yan Xing looked at the black smoke rising from the valley. He knew that this was a signal that other elderly, weak, women and children in the valley were retreating.

···

The news that the old lair in the rear was attacked by a surprise attack soon spread from Baibo Valley to Linfen City, and Baibo's army was in an uproar. It would be fine if the food and supplies in the valley were burned to death, but the relatives of the soldiers were still in the valley. Even if they retreated in time and were not surrounded and annihilated in the valley, they would probably lose most of the people on the way to escape.

For a moment, everyone in the besieged Baibo soldiers were heartbroken and did not have the desire to fight. Guo Tai, considering that his retreat had been threatened by the Han cavalry and suffered heavy losses in the rear, hurriedly ordered the camp to lay flags and golden drums, and the soldiers quickly retreated to the northern border of Hedong County, and begged Yu Fuluo to lead his Hun cavalry to help block the pursuit of the Han army from Linfen City and the Fen River.

During the confrontation, Li Jue, who watched the changes in the battle day and night, quickly noticed the abnormality on the other side. The flags in Baibo's military camp were more dense than before, but the mobilization and deployment of troops were much calmer. He quickly sent elite scouts to smuggle through the Fen River to spy on military information, and soon discovered the actual situation of Baibo's army being withdrawn.

So, Li Jue and three other three captains hurriedly led the army to cross the Fen River, pursued the retreating Bai Bo army, and bit the Bai Bo army's rear squad in time. He was begged to assist the Xiongnu cavalry who had cut off the rear and no longer had the advantage in the situation. Instead, after contacting the Xiliang cavalry under the command of the three captains, he quickly retreated. So the army cut off the rear and the Bai Bo soldiers who had no intention of fighting fled. Li Jue and others took the army to take advantage of the situation and killed more than 10,000 people, finally defeated the main force of the Bai Bo army and lifted the siege of Linfen City.

···

Although Linfen City was in a difficult situation, it was ultimately unable to make a contribution in this pursuit battle. However, the good news from Li Jue and others was quickly spread to Linfen City.

Niu Fu's temporary residence

Holding these military newspapers for winning victory in his hand, Niu Fu's brows frowned tightly.

When he thought he was sure to win, the Huns' cavalry fell from the sky like a nightmare, completely breaking his dream of putting down the bandits. When he thought he was helpless in defending, the front line suddenly heard many good news, as if the Baibo soldiers who were guarding the pass and defending the death to retreat became puppets. The bandits' lair was attacked by the junior Xu Kun in the army, and the fierce Huns' cavalry, who fought fiercely, seemed to have changed their roles and were defeated by the three lieutenants' soldiers in one fell swoop. The main force of Baibo, who was still besieging Linfen City, was even more disintegrated in a blink of an eye and fled north...

These good news broke the siege of Linfen City and rescued the Guizhou heads and thousands of defeated soldiers in the city, but did not solve the crux of Niu Fu's heart.

He led more than 10,000 troops to attack Baibo Valley, but suffered a loss of troops and a defeat. However, when he arrived at Xu Kun, he became a surprise attack on the bandit's nest and defeated the bandit's victory. He was trapped in the lonely city and was besieged by 100,000 Baibos. As a result, when he arrived at the third lieutenant of Li Jue, he became a brave soldier. The bandits were unable to resist and retreated and fled. Our army took advantage of the situation to attack and killed more than 10,000 prisoners.

This made Niu Fu still control the army, show up in front of the generals, gain a foothold in the army in the future, and how to face the woman who is still waiting for her good news.

When Niu Fu thought of these troubles, he felt as if he was blocked by heavy objects. The huge pressure forced him to breathe.

Suddenly, he remembered the sentence ""Xunfeng, the sixth day of the first lunar month, advance and retreat, and benefit the virginity of the martial people."

The old witch swore that she would win when she attacked Baibo's army. Even if there were occasional minor troubles in front of her, she would be lucky and clear about the will of the gods in the future.

He was originally defeated and was trapped in Fen City, and he also had many doubts about the old witches. Although these witches were proficient in the art of witches and divination, and claimed to be able to drive away disasters and boost morale for themselves. Niu Fu himself also believed in the art of divination of ghosts and gods, and for this reason he would keep them in the army and be consulted casually, but Niu Fu was not a fool. Once he found out that these witches did not have the magical powers he claimed to be, his suspicion would continue to arise until the thin piece of paper was pierced by external forces.

But now everything is as the old witch said. It is really a good news for a great victory. Although it did not happen to me, it also confirms the hexagram interpretation of "advance and retreat, benefiting the chastity of the martial artist."

Niu Fu could no longer sit down, so he suddenly stood up and shouted outside the court.

"Come!"

"General, my subordinates are here!"

Wearing armor and holding soldiers, Hu Chier outside the guard hall immediately appeared and saluted Niu Fu respectfully. Seeing this confidant, Niu Fu nodded with satisfaction and said:

"Go and call the master to me!"

"promise!"

After hearing the order, Hu Chier turned around and was about to leave. Suddenly, Niu Fu, who was frowning, suddenly started to speak and asked:

"Hait, have there been any abnormalities on the master's side recently?"

"There is no abnormality. The master and his disciples still practice the Taoism as usual."

Niu Fu gave the safety of those witches in the army to this confidant, and was personally taken care of by his own guard. Now that he heard Hu Chier's report, Niu Fu's heart was finally settled, and he even further determined in his heart that these witches who were still calm and calm had real skills. He shouted to Hu Chier:

"In this way, you don't have to summon people anymore. You bring a few other guards, and I want to go there in person."

After saying that, Niu Fu had already walked out of the hall, and he had also thought about it. Since this witch's divination has real magical powers, he would let her divine again to see if he could wipe out these bandits in Hedong in one fell swoop, and let her help him explain this hexagram clearly, so that he could feel at ease.

Hu Chier saw Niu Fu stepping vigorously. Although she deliberately showed a steady look, those who knew him still noticed that his pace was a little chaotic.
