My vicious dog, my horse, I can do whatever I want with it

"Hang Zhou Hui's head on the city wall." Zong Yanli narrowed his eyes and smiled, "I'll write a letter of challenge to let Ma Hongwei know how his capable general died."

"This may not necessarily lead to Ma Hongwei sending out troops." The general next to him shook his head.

"Nankang will not take the initiative to march to Yongmen Pass, but will definitely attack the villages to vent their anger, and lure our army to chase them and then flee." Zong Yanli said slowly: "I want to cooperate with General Hu."

"What do you mean?" Hu Zhiyong asked with some confusion.

Zong Yanli pointed to the Shapan Mountains in front of him and said, "General, you have been chasing Nankang for many years, so you must know their retreat route. If we attack them in the east, where will they retreat?"

Hu Zhiyong pointed in a direction without thinking. There were "holes" dug by Nankang in every direction, east, south, west and north. Whenever he chased them to certain places, the enemy troops would disperse into the canyon.

“If Nankang attacks the east side this time and General Hu leads his troops to chase them, Nankang’s troops will still push here, and I will set up an ambush here to cut off their retreat.” Zong Yanli said, pointing to the cliff.

"How can you judge that the enemy will definitely attack here?" Nankang's guerrilla strategy is to confuse people. You have no idea where they will come from to attack.

"Have you ever caught a mouse?"

"..."

The winter nights were exceptionally cold, and the wind in the canyon kept blowing into people's collars. A man was lying motionless beside the weeds blown by the wind, and a number of ropes were fixed on the rocks next to him. At a glance, the place was silent.

Bai Xiuyun raised his head from behind the stone and asked in a low voice, "Can those rats in Nankang really be driven here?"

Qian Zhixing lay there motionless, breathing out white mist as he spoke. He also lowered his voice and said, "I don't know."

Bai Xiujun moved his numb right leg and was about to bend it when a hand suddenly reached out and pressed down on Bai Xiujun's hind leg. He was so scared that he almost screamed out, but the sound was stuck in his throat and he turned to look at Wen Nian's face.

"Hey, captain..." Bai Xiuyun was so scared that his legs went limp.

"Someone is coming." As Wen Nian finished speaking, everyone was shocked and looked hurriedly at the bottom of the slope of the valley, where a group of people were retreating hurriedly into the valley.

"Hu Zhiyong still wants to catch me? No way!" The leading general laughed and led the troops behind him into the valley. From his posture, it was obvious that he knew this place well.

"General, why is the commander of Yongmen Pass so vicious today? He even set fire to the mountain in order to capture us!" The deputy next to him couldn't help but curse. It was winter and the mountain fire was really horrifying, blocking their retreat route.

Huo Jiancheng sneered twice and said, "It must be because the reinforcements from Pingnan Camp have arrived and killed Zhou Hui, so they are in high spirits and want to capture us in one fell swoop."

Huo Jiancheng wanted to laugh when he said this: "Zhou Hui, that brainless idiot, was actually tricked."

"This Hu Zhiyong is trying to use the same old trick to trick our army again. The grain cart at the village entrance is so obvious, he really thinks I will be fooled?" Huo Jiancheng's face was full of sneers, and he ran away almost immediately. Sure enough, when he saw that the situation was not good and turned to leave, Hu Zhiyong came out with his men.

Unexpectedly, in order to stop him, Hu Zhiyong ordered his men to set fire to the mountain, forcing Huo Jiancheng to turn around and run to the west. He took a long detour before entering the valley.

Huo Jiancheng drove his horse into the valley and said with a bit of pride: "I spent so much effort, but it was all in vain, right?"

The deputy general next to him immediately flattered: "General, you have a keen eye and saw through their tricks at a glance!"

Huo Jiancheng was quite pleased. Just as he was about to speak, he suddenly caught a glimpse of something flashing in the darkness. The next second, he heard the sound of an arrow breaking through the air and directly piercing the throat of the deputy general beside him.

Countless torches lit up above the valley, and figures gathered overhead, causing everyone's faces to change drastically.

"There's an ambush--!!!"

"what--!"

Halfway up the mountain, Kuang Xingquan raised his sword and cut the rope that tied the boulder.

The stones rolled down the slope with a loud rumble, and the enemy troops in the valley below were knocked to the ground in an instant.

"Kill!" Monkie roared and rushed down the hillside first, leaping into the enemy's position.

"The general has ordered that the enemy general be captured alive!"

Seeing that the situation was not right, Huo Jiancheng immediately turned his horse around and tried to escape from the rear. However, before he took two steps, a black shadow fell from the sky. Holding a long sword, it fiercely split Huo Jiancheng's horse into two halves!

Huo Jiancheng sat down on the ground in horror, his body covered in blood, not a single drop of which was his own. His shoulders felt heavy, and the blood-stained long knife was now on his neck. The blade, shining with a cold light, was touching his skin, and it seemed that his head would be separated from his body in the next moment.

The long knife suddenly turned, and Huo Jianchengdu closed his eyes and waited for death.

Instead, he felt a pain at the back of his head and was knocked unconscious.

In the end, Huo Jiancheng still couldn't see clearly what the person who captured him looked like.

At dawn, when Zong Yanli returned to Yongmen Pass with Huo Jiancheng, who was like a dead pig, it caused a sensation again. The thunderous cheers made Hu Zhiyong's eyes light up with excitement.

"General Hu, I'm glad I have fulfilled my mission." Zong Yanli bowed to Hu Zhiyong.

In the battle in the canyon, Zong Yanli led 300 soldiers and annihilated more than a thousand enemies!

From then on, Zong Yanli's name became famous throughout Yongmen Pass.

Nankang Camp.

Ma Hongwei overturned the table in anger, and shouted angrily: "Who! Who on earth is it! They even captured two of my favorite generals!"

Ma Hongwei was so angry that he beat his chest and stamped his feet. Not only had his entire army been wiped out twice in a row, but he didn't even have a clear idea of ​​the number of enemy troops, let alone who the leader was.

"General, calm down!" All the generals below had ugly expressions on their faces. They had fought against Hu Zhiyong for many years, but had never been humiliated like this.

"How can this general calm down?" Ma Hongwei kicked over the chair in front of him and said angrily, "Could it be that the reinforcements coming from Pingnan Camp are the main force?"

"General, I have already found out that the leader is a young general wearing a silver helmet." One of the generals stepped forward and said respectfully, "This man is Zong Yanli, the new commander of the Pingnan Camp, the son of Zong Yanhongjing."

"Zong Yanli?" Ma Hongwei narrowed his eyes when he heard this name he had never heard of before, and said in a sinister tone: "This general will definitely take his head and sacrifice it to the souls of my brothers in heaven!"

"He's just a young boy. Let me go and meet him!" Another general stood up and said loudly.

"Wait a minute." Another person hurriedly stopped him and said, "General Cao, please be patient. Our army has suffered a series of defeats and morale has dropped greatly. It is not appropriate to go to war now. In my opinion, we should take the long view!"
