After waiting for a night, the defeated Hu army indeed ran back five or six hundred people. When the sky was dawn, Hu army immediately set off for Lanjiang...

In Qingyu City, Qian Xiaoxing received a report early in the morning that Hu Jun was retreating to the Lan River.

Just as he heard the report, Lu Shengzhong walked in. He had just received the information and said to Qian Xiaoxing: "Hu Jun retreated to Lanjiang, it seems that he wants to go back."

Qian Xiaoxing laughed and said, "Hu Jun seems to be very cautious. If he is in Jiangnan, I will kill them slowly."

"Seventh brother, are you not sure about this opportunity? The army is the most vulnerable when crossing the river. Why don't we take advantage of it?" Lu Shengzhong suggested.

Qian Xiaoxing couldn't help but say: "Okay, let's go and have a look. I have always liked to take advantage of it."

The infantry must not be able to catch up, and the infantry must defend the city, so Qian Xiaoxing and Lu Shengzhong led the cavalry brigade to the Lanjiang River. The soldiers of the cavalry regiment were wearing light armor, so they ran very quickly. The Dark Knights were all heavy helmets and could not increase their speed, so Qian Xiaoxing had to order him to follow up slowly.

Thirty miles away, only one hour to ride a horse, and about two miles away from Lanjiang, Qian Xiaoxing asked the troops to rest on the spot and sent scouts to investigate the situation.

The hot sun hangs in the air, and the leaves are drooping and listless. While waiting, Qian Xiaoxing hid under the shade of the tree, picked up the kettle and took a few sips, and the heat dissipated a lot.

The heat of summer is really uncomfortable, but Qian Xiaoxing suddenly feels that he has become much more adaptable. After experiencing so many hardships, perhaps that little bit of heat is nothing.

Lu Shengzhong took the kettle and took a few sips and said, "It's good to be happy, I will definitely feel comfortable when I go to Lanjiang to take a shower later."

"Yes, I haven't swam in the river for a long time. I, a little white dragon in the wave, have no chance to perform it. However, if you want to take a bath with confidence, you have to eliminate these Hu soldiers. Brother Zhong, if the Hu army returns to Jiangbei, I want to station the troops here to prevent the Hu army from crossing the river to cause trouble for the people. What do you think?" Qian Xiaoxing asked.

Lu Shengzhong thought for a while and said, "Although it is much more dangerous to garrison along the river than to garrison in the city, it is worth it for the safety of the people, and I think it is feasible."

"Yes, the people's army must think about the people, and no matter how hard it is, it cannot let the people suffer." Qian Xiaoxing said seriously.

The two were talking, and the scouts from afar quickly rode over and got off the horse and came to the two of them to report: "Teacher Commander, Chief of Staff, Hu Jun's movements have been discovered. They are currently crossing the river, and more than half of them have crossed the river."

"Oh, there are still half of Hu Jun, so what are you waiting for? Go and have a look right away!" Qian Xiaoxing said excitedly.

Lu Shengzhong also said: "The half-cross strike is the best time, let's go!"

After saying that, he led the cavalry and rushed to the Lan River...

Four pontoon bridges have been built by the Lan River. The pontoon bridges are connected by many boats and wooden boards. On the bridge, many Hu soldiers are lined up to cross the river.

Suddenly there was a rumbling sound of horse hooves in the distance. Zhou Yi put his eyes on his hands to cover the dazzling sunlight. He looked at it and shouted immediately: "No, Si Jun is coming to attack. King Hu, you cross the river first."

Hukan refused, "No, I am not a person who is afraid of death. It will be even more chaotic when I leave here. I immediately ordered the King of Wu to form a formation to fight the enemy."

Zhou Yi still admired Hu Kan for living and dying with the soldiers, but he was King Hu after all, so he persuaded him for a while. King Hu couldn't help but scolded: "I won't make arrangements yet, I don't have to worry about you!"

Zhou Yi had no choice but to arrange the soldiers of the King of Wu's Division to arrange the formation and protect the ferry and cover the other soldiers to evacuate.

When Qian Xiaoxing and Lu Shengzhong arrived, the soldiers of the King of Wu's division had already assembled and lined up neatly.

Seeing Hu Bing evacuating quickly, Lu Shengzhong asked: "Seventh brother, will we attack? If we don't attack Hu's army, we will run away."

Qian Xiaoxing observed and said, "With the Zongheng Cavalry Group to attack the King of Wu, there will be great casualties. We will not be worth the loss. We are here to get the bargain, not to fight to the death."

"Then just watch Hu Jun cross the river?" Lu Shengzhong asked unwillingly.

Qian Xiaoxing laughed and said, "Brother Zhong, don't be anxious. If we don't fight the Wuwang Division, other Hu troops can still fight. Look, there are four floating bridges here, and the area where the Wuwang Division can defend is only two floating bridges. Therefore, we can take advantage of the cavalry's advantage of quickly entering and retreating and killing some Hu soldiers."

"Okay, Yang Qing obeys the order, I order you to surround the Hu army on both sides of the left and right, and launch an attack on the Hu army's infantry. If King Wu's division comes, retreat immediately." Lu Shengzhong ordered.

Yang Qing took the order and left. The 10,000 cavalry regiments were divided into two groups, starting from the left and right wings to attack the soldiers who did not cross the river.

The left-wing cavalry regiment launched an attack on the infantry. After the war yesterday, these infantry were very afraid of the cavalry of the army. When they saw the cavalry coming again, they were so scared that they shrank, and their attack power was even worse than before.

Seeing this, Hu Kan immediately ordered the King Wu Division to go to rescue. Seeing that the King Wu Division left, the cavalry on the right wing rushed up again and attacked the Hu infantry. The infantry was killed and cried and shouted to her mother. They retreated one after another, and squeezed many people fell into the riverside.

The Wu King's Division could not take care of both sides, so they came to the left and ran away on the left side, but took the opportunity to attack on the right side. After returning to the right, the left side of the military cavalry returned and played with the Wu King's Division.

Seeing this, Qian Xiaoxing and Lu Shengzhong couldn't help but laugh. This battle was originally a place to get a bargain. They were very happy to be able to kill some Hu soldiers and play with the Martial King Army this time.

However, as more and more Hu troops crossed the river, fewer Hu soldiers from Jiangnan gradually disappeared. There were about 5,000 people who had not crossed the river, and the King Wu army guarded two ferries to cover them to cross the river.

Seeing that there was no cheaper, Qian Xiaoxing thought for a while and said, "Brother Zhong, our Dark Knights are still behind. If the floating bridge can be destroyed, he can trap King Wu and deal with it slowly."

"Yes, but how can the floating bridge be destroyed?" Lu Shengzhong asked in confusion.

Qian Xiaoxing thought about it and said, "It's not difficult to destroy it. We can do this..."

After hearing this, Lu Shengzhong nodded happily, with a smile on his face. This time there was a good show again.

In the crossing of the river area, many Hu soldiers had died, about 3,000 people. In the blink of an eye, three thousand people were lost, and Hu Kan felt angry. However, the situation was finally controlled by the King Wu Division, and he felt a little relieved, so he walked towards the floating bridge with the troops.

When I walked to the middle of the pontoon bridge, I suddenly saw three small boats coming upstream, with only three people on each boat. Seeing that their clothes were probably Si Jun, but it was too naive to just want to cut off the pontoon bridge. Hu Kan couldn't help but laugh.

When the three small boats approached the top of the pontoon bridge, about twenty meters away, they used bamboo poles to plug the bottom of the river to stop the boat. The soldiers on the boat picked up the refining bomb in their hands, lit the lighter, ignited the refining bomb and threw it onto the pontoon bridge.

The "boom" refining bomb exploded, igniting the boats and wooden boards that set up the pontoon bridge.

Seeing this, Hu Kan shouted anxiously: "Extinguish the fire quickly and get the river to put out the fire!"

The Hu soldiers hurriedly used their helmets to fetch water and poured it on, but they saw that the fire became even bigger. As the refining bombs were thrown one by one, the floating bridge had already burned several places, and the fire became more and more powerful and the floating bridge was burned off.

The burnt pontoon bridge floated downstream and hit the second pontoon bridge. After a while, the second pontoon bridge was also burned, and then floated to the third pontoon.
