You Yida: "Receiving guests? Pfft … I should really let the little princesses from the group of little princesses see how stifled their lord is. "
Fireworks Era: "It's not just the streamer who's stifled. I've been stifled for a while too. The content of the streaming of swords and blades is more exciting. Of course, I'm not encouraging the streamer to be as unrestrained as before, but it's good to have some fun once in a while. Don't stifle yourself. "
Qingchen: "When I heard the streamer say" receiving guests, "I couldn't help but think of an alluring madam waving her handkerchief. The sense of déjà vu is too strong."
Laosiji Lianmeng: "To the previous poster, I think the two have the same effect, because both the streamer and the madam want people's lives."
Even the salted fish in the streaming room had been edified into an old salted fish that raced on Mount Qiuming, but a big shot was still a big shot. Her speed was extraordinary.
In the blink of an eye, a car flew past.
Jiang Pengji blocked the bullet screen and carefully waited for the fish that slipped through the net to crash into her.
In comparison, An Cui's situation was much more difficult. There were enemy soldiers lying in ambush in front and behind him.
This was not the worst. The worst thing was that the morale of the three armies was hanging by a thread. Everyone believed that this operation would be successful and that they would fight with their backs to the wall after the food crisis was resolved. Now that they had been ambushed by the enemy, their last breath was immediately deflated. Their morale had also collapsed. However, in the face of danger, they could only brace themselves and fight for a way out. Only then would there be a possibility of survival.
The flames of war spread, and the killings shook the heavens.
The morale of Jiang Pengji's side was as high as a rainbow. An Cui's side could only struggle with difficulty.
Seeing that the tide was about to turn and that the flames of war were about to spread to An Cui's side, An Cui was burning with anxiety, but he was powerless. He only hated Jiang Pengji and Lu Zheng, who had presented him with the "brilliant plan." Now that he thought about it carefully, it was most likely that Lu Zheng had used the excuse of leaving to seek refuge with Jiang Pengji. He had even used the "brilliant plan" to deceive An Cui into stepping into a trap. This guess was baseless, but An Cui could not think of any other possibility.
He loved and hated Lu Zheng at the same time. His heart was filled with rage. An Cui felt that he had treated Lu Zheng well. Although he had given him the cold shoulder in the past two years, he had also ensured that Lu Zheng enjoyed a high position and wealth. He had never done something like burning the bridge after crossing it. He did not expect Lu Zheng to betray him and hook up with Jiang Pengji.
An Cui kept saying that he trusted Lv Zheng and treated him well, but in reality, he was biased to the core.
Lu Zheng's "brilliant plan" might not have come from Lu Zheng. Perhaps Lu Zheng had already met with misfortune …
Unfortunately, Ann Cui didn't have the chance to think about this.
He shouted, "Retreat! Lead the troops and break out of the encirclement!"
If he was caught, there was no point in fighting the war. The remaining territories of Nansheng would really fall into Jiang Pengji's hands.
The group also realized the severity of the situation. They could only try their best to organize a counterattack and break out of the encirclement, attempting to escort An Cui out of the encirclement.
Even if the soldiers under Jiang Pengji's command were of high quality, they were no match for the enemy's human wave tactic.
The soldiers under An Cui's command focused on one direction to break out of the encirclement. They managed to tear a hole in the encirclement, but not too long after, the enemy came to fill the gap.
Soon, the commotion here alarmed Fu Wang.
"Report —"
"What's the matter?"
Fu Wang spat out a mouthful of blood. With a few slashes, he chopped a few obstructing enemies in half.
The soldiers reported to Fu Wang that An Cui's side was gathering troops to break out of the encirclement, allowing Fu Wang to decide whether to continue intercepting them or go easy on them.
The battlefield was so big that it was impossible to take care of every single area. There were bound to be places where troops had to be concentrated, and some places where they had to go easy on them to reduce the overall pressure. They had to use the limited number of troops to deal the greatest blow to the enemy. If they sent troops to fight to the death in one area, the troops in other areas would be thinned out. Even though the morale of An Cui's troops was low and their combat ability was not up to par, it did not mean that they would surrender without a fight.
For example, An Cui's attempt to break out of the encirclement was very stressful. Many soldiers had been sacrificed to stop them.
Fu Wang rubbed his chin with his blood-stained palm and muttered to himself.
His hands, face, armor, and the warhorse he was riding, Lightning Chasing, were all stained with someone's blood. He looked as if he had crawled out of a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood. It was very frightening. When he was deep in thought, his oppressive aura became even stronger.
"Haha, looks like it's a big fish!" Fu Wang picked up his weapon and urged his horse forward. "What are you waiting for? Grab your weapons and follow me!"
Fu Wang was a meticulous person despite his coarseness. The morale of An Cui's troops was so low that they could not withstand a single blow, but the troops they had gathered to break out of the encirclement had almost torn apart their own army's defensive line — what did this mean? This meant that the person they were protecting had an extraordinary status. The soldiers had to raise their fighting spirit, which was why Fu Wang's side was feeling so pressured. With such a deduction, would Fu Wang let them go so easily?
The people on An Cui's side were the first to realize that something was wrong.
The enemy was targeting them!
When he realized this, An Cui could not sit still. Riding on his warhorse, he gripped the reins tightly, his face so dark that it seemed as if it would drip water.
"Master, the enemy has caught up."
Fu Wang and the others were very fast, but because of the darkness, reinforcements could not come as quickly. An Cui had managed to temporarily escape danger under the protection of the soldiers. Before they could celebrate, they discovered that the enemy had already caught up. They could only send out some troops to delay the enemy for a while.
However, this method was not a long-term solution.
On the way to escape, a soldier came up with an idea in a moment of desperation.
He suggested that An Cui take off his luxurious clothes and change into the tattered clothes of an ordinary soldier. His face would be smeared black, his hair messy, and he would disguise himself as an ordinary soldier. Even if the enemy caught up, An Cui would blend into the chaotic army. As long as he did not admit his identity, no one would know that he was Duke An Cui. This soldier could then disguise himself as An Cui and confuse the enemy's eyes and ears, drawing their people away. This way, he could delay them for a while.
Although this method was bad, it was a method that did not have a solution.
For the sake of his own life, An Cui had to agree.
When he finished changing, he realized that something was wrong …
However, time was of the essence. He did not have the luxury of time to think about it.
"Sorry to trouble you, Master."
The soldier put on the clothes An Cui had taken off, scratched his messy hair with his fingers, and turned back on his horse, leading the soldiers to delay the enemy.
The soldiers split into two groups. One group would escort An Cui to escape, while the other would use themselves as bait to attract the enemy's troops.
Fu Wang was not a useless person. In a few moves, he had captured and killed the people on the second group.
"General Fu, this is the big fish."
The soldiers picked out the best dressed, the tallest, and the one with the most complete armor from among the captives.
After identifying the captives, they finally caught the general who had put on An Cui's clothes.
This was probably the big fish that the enemy was carefully protecting.
Fu Wang dismounted, grabbed a torch, and walked forward. He used the light to identify the man.
"Who is this?"
Fu Wang casually poked the torch in front of him, almost burning the man's eyebrows.
The general in An Cui's tent said, "I am An Cui. How dare you!"
Holding the torch, Fu Wang froze.
He almost cried out, "Is An Cui personally leading the troops today?"
The general: "…"
