While cleaning the battlefield, Wang Jian saw the war horse that saved his life lying quietly on the battlefield. He sighed and simply joined his former salt-trading partner, Jin Hui, who is now one of the eight generals of Zhongwu, as well as his own tribe Wang Zongshou, Wang Zongkan, Wang Zongbi, Wang Zongruan, Wang Zongdi, Wang Zongbo, Wang Zongji and others to break the dead horse together, preparing to make a large pot of horse broth to comfort the brothers who followed him.///

When Wang Jian was young, he specialized in killing cows and donkeys in his hometown Xuzhou. However, when he skillfully cut open the horse's belly, he actually found a strange animal similar to a small snake, which was squirming near the heart of the war horse, and was shocked. Jin Hui, Wang Zongshou and others couldn't help but change their faces.

Just when everyone was surprised and at a loss, Wang Zongshou said to the Bastard in a low voice: "On the battlefield today, three crossbow arrows were originally aimed at Bastard, but at the critical moment, it was all up to this war horse to avoid the psychics, so Bastard survived the disaster. Now that this thing has been discovered in this horse, I think this is a sign of great luck."

It was too strange to see a snake when he cut off the horse. After Wang Zongshou said this, everyone remembered that Wang Jianduo escaped the catastrophe because of this war horse. They all felt that this matter was unusual.

"This thing looks like a snake and not a snake, but it actually grows in the heart of a horse. Could it be that this is a dragon horse? When it is in chaos today, is it that the starling has the appearance of the destiny of heaven?"

After they said this, Wang Jian felt that he had a destiny in his body, and he couldn't help but feel excited. It seemed that he would have good luck in the future even if he survived the disaster. He stewed the horse a large pot of horse broth with everyone, and all his brothers were given a portion. As for the strange snake, it was cooked by the brave Wang Jian and eaten it alone.

That night, the army withdrew its troops back to the camp, and the towns counted the numbers and found that in the battle, more than 5,000 people were killed in battle, and more than 3,000 injured people were more than 3000 people. This huge casualties made Zheng Congsheng and the other six towns of the Jieshang look very ugly.

At this time, Tuoba Sigong and Helian Duo were a little lucky to have not entered the city that night, otherwise, they might have all been thrown into the city. After this battle, the generals suffered heavy casualties and were reluctant to continue their attacks.

On the next day, the nine thousand cavalry of three tribes sent by Li Jing arrived. Their arrival made Zheng Congxian and others excited again.

"Master, the enemy is resisting stubbornly, and the soldiers suffered heavy casualties. It is better to stop the attack for the time being. Our army will only surround and not attack, and directly trap them to death." Li Zhong, the governor of the Yicheng Army, proposed that his Yicheng army is the weakest among the towns, and yesterday was the worst casualties. He only brought three thousand soldiers and horses to come to Hedong this time, and he lost almost a thousand soldiers and horses in this battle. If he fought like this, he would become a commander of the only one Jie.

"No, you must attack!" Zheng Congxian was abnormal this time and demanded to continue the attack with a decisive request.

Zheng Cong-sei, who was usually gentle and polite, was so stubborn at this moment, which shocked all the Zhenjie generals present.

Zheng Congyi's eyes swept across everyone, and his eyes emitted a bright light: "Everyone, the strength of the defenders is really beyond our expectations. I judge that there are at least 10,000 soldiers in the city. Li Keyong's hands are now limited. Since he has heavily stationed in Shuozhou City, the other defense lines will inevitably have empty troops! It is difficult to fight Shuozhou, so let's take Mayi!"

The generals of Zhuzhenjie came to understand everything, and Li Zhong asked: "Master, do you want to attack the world?"

"That's right!" Zheng Cong-sei turned around and said, "Ship Yu Jie!"

Yu Yan stood up and said, "Here!"

"I plan to ask you to lead the cavalry to raid Mayi. Are you willing to take on this mission?"

Yu Qian did not refuse, "Yu Qian received the order!"

"Okay, Tuoba Sigong, Helianduo, Qi Bizhang, Shi Jingsi, Mi Haiwan, you all lead the headquarters to the commander of Yushuai Jiedu."

The generals responded to the order and finally decided that since the Wufan cavalry and the Zhenwu cavalry, a total of 18,000 cavalry went to raid Mayi City. The remaining more than 40,000 troops were still led by Zheng Cong-sei and continued to besiege Shuozhou City.

In the middle of the night, Yu Jun led 18,000 cavalry to march northward. A total of 18,000 cavalry was a huge concentrated cavalry battle. Zheng Congyi and Yu Jun believed that with this cavalry, it should not be a problem to take down Mayi. The Shatuo people had only so many soldiers, at most 20,000 to 30,000, and the Jingrui people were only about 10,000. Now there are tens of thousands in Shuozhou City, so the Shatuo people’s old nest Jincheng must not be less than 10,000. In this way, the Mayi soldiers will never exceed 10,000, and there will definitely be so many Jingrui people in Shuozhou City.

As long as you fight a raid, you will have a great chance to win Mayi.

It is because when Ju led 18,000 cavalrymen to leave Shanyang, Li Keyong, who had been secretly stationed in Mayi City between Shuozhou City and Jincheng, also raised all the 8,000 cavalry in Mayi City and was coming to Shuozhou City.

The two groups of soldiers advanced almost at the same time, but they did not meet at all along the way.

Yu Jun walked to the east, while Li Keyong walked to the west.

As dawn approached, Li Keyong had few soldiers and was faster. He arrived first near the Tang Army Camp in Shanyang. Li Keyong had already discovered that the coalition's supplies, grain and grass were piled up in Zuoying, so he directly rushed to Zuoying. Eight thousand Shatuo cavalry came out, and the Tang camp was about to rest. When Ming Ri fought again, he did not notice the appearance of this Shatuo cavalry. The two sides then started a melee. Although there were still 40,000 troops in the Tang camp, the troops and horses of the towns were separated from each other. At this time, the chaos was even more chaotic.

Finally, Zheng Cong-si figured out what happened and commanded the troops to try to surround Li Keyong. Li Siyuan, Kang Junli and others in the city got news. When they knew that Li Keyong had arrived, they immediately ordered the five thousand cavalrymen in the city to fight out of the city to respond.

The two sides fought overnight. At dawn, Li Keyong and Li Siyuan retreated into Shanyang City.

After dawn, Zheng Cong-yi asked the towns to count the losses. Last night, the Shatuo people went in several ways. The Tang army's 40,000 were killed or injured, more than 5,000 people were killed in battle, more than 2,000 seriously injured, and countless minor injuries. However, the biggest loss was not casualties, but the food and grass of tens of thousands of troops in the battalion turned into ashes in a month.

Now, the whole army has no food.

Li Keyong returned to the city at dawn. He fought overnight and lost only a thousand cavalry. Li Keyong was very happy. He killed nearly ten thousand enemies with more than a thousand cavalry, and completely burned the coalition's food and grass. How to continue to fight the coalition forces will have to retreat.

Just as he was happy and proud, Li Kening, the remaining Mayi guard, suddenly arrived.

"Three brother, Mayi is lost!" Li Kening looked embarrassed. After Li Keyong led 8,000 cavalry away, only 3,000 newly recruited infantry were left in Mayi City. As soon as Li Keyong left, Yu Guan's 18,000 cavalry arrived. With so many cavalry, Yu Guan directly attacked the city from all directions, and the new soldiers under Li Keyong was completely defeated. Before dawn, the city was captured. Li Kening finally escaped from the city and ran to Shanyang to report the news.

Li Keyong almost stood there on the spot. He had just burned the coalition forces' food and grass, but the coalition forces took his Mayi in a blink of an eye.

Mayi lives in Shanyang, Jincheng. Now that Mayi is lost, Shanyang is surrounded by two sides and loses its connection with Jincheng.

"What should I do now?" Li Youjin said worriedly. The joy of victory just now had been washed away by the lost defeat in Mayi. "Let me lead my troops back to Mayi and take back Mayi."

"No." Li Keyong shook his head. He had just experienced a one-night battle. At this time, the soldiers could only be exhausted. In Mayi, the other party had city defenses available. It was not so easy for them to seize Mayi. Li Ke held the sword tightly with his palm, and his one eye showed contemplation.

"Let the brothers have dinner first, and rest immediately after dinner. We will leave the city again tonight!" Li Keyong said.

"Go to take back Mayi?"

"No, tonight we will destroy the Tang soldiers outside the city, first destroy the Tang army in front of us, and then return to the army to seize Mayi."

In the Tang Army's camp, Zheng Congyi did not sleep all night, his eyes were covered with red blood, his eyes were black, and his face was pale. Without food and grass, tens of thousands of troops had no way to advance and retreat. Even if he wanted to retreat at this time, what would he eat in the past few days?

"Li Jing, Li Jing, where are you big at this time?" Zheng Congxian was thinking about Li Jing at this time. If Li Jing was here, this young man should have a way to deal with it.

A burst of rapid footsteps finally interrupted Zheng Congxian's thoughts, and a messenger rushed in: "Report to the Grand Marshal, Yu Shuai's special life is very small. Before Yu Tianming, he has seized Mayi City. There are only three thousand new soldiers in Mayi City. After interrogating the prisoners, he learned that Li Keyong led 8,000 cavalry to come to Shanyang. I hope the Grand Marshal is on guard."

Zheng Congxian sighed: "It's too late, Li Keyong had already stepped on our camp last night. Not only did he kill thousands of our troops, but he also burned all our food and grass."

However, this news still made Zheng Congxian feel a little happy, "At least Mayi City has been taken down, and they also have two troops from Li Jing and Yu Yu. The key thing now is that as long as you survive this level, victory will immediately belong to you."

"Send the order and the whole army is on guard. As expected tonight, Shatuo will invade!" Zheng Cong-sei started to beat Jing Shen and issued an order.

That night, Li Keyong indeed led 10,000 jing cavalry out of the city and attacked the Tang camp at night. This time, Zheng Congyi had been on guard. Li Keyong attacked the camp fiercely, but Zheng Congyi held the camp. Both sides attacked and defended overnight, and countless casualties were injured. But Li Keyong did not want to retreat. If Mayi was in hand, he would only need to stare at this team without food and grass like a wolf. It only takes a few days for this Tang army to be defeated without attacking.

But now Mayi is in the hands of the enemy, Jincheng is directly surrounded by Yu Jun's cavalry and Li Jing's troops in the clouds. When he thinks of Li Jing's troops, who have not yet found a trace, Li Keyong felt a deep sense of anxiety surged into his heart.

He must first destroy this Tang army and then return to Mayi, and for this he will spare no expense.

Li Keyong was fierce and Zheng Congyi was also cruel at this time. He had asked Zhang Chengye to go back to find Li Jing, and also sent people to Yuguan to send troops to help. Now he just needs to hold Li Keyong back, and when Li Jing and Yuguan's troops come back, the final victory of this battle will still be theirs.

In the dark night, Shatuo cavalry kept rushing against the Tang army camp like water. The soldiers in the camp were hungry at this time and fought back to death. The bodies in front of the camp were layer after layer.

Zheng Cong-sei kept riding his horse and leading the way on the front line to boost morale.
