On April 20, 18th year of Jianping, the first guard of Congzhou, the second guard of Congzhou, and the third guard of Congzhou were divided into three groups and first attacked the territory of the original Dongcong Kingdom.

After the Dongcong Kingdom was annexed by the Jinluo Kingdom, it was divided into three counties and became the Congzhou Prefecture of the Jinluo Kingdom.

After the Jinluo Kingdom annexed Fujie Kingdom, the four counties in the northeast of Fujie Kingdom were also classified into Congzhou Prefecture, which made Congzhou Prefecture have seven counties and fifty-four counties. However, now the four counties in the northeast of Fujie Kingdom have separated from the Congzhou Prefecture of Jinluo Kingdom and become Congzhou Prefecture of the Dayan Empire.

The three counties divided by the original Dongcong Kingdom were only left with less than 3 million people after being forced to recruit 300,000 young and strong men by the Jinluo Kingdom. The Jinluo Kingdom dispatched two towns of imperial guards to station in these three counties, namely the 35th and 36th towns of the Jinluo Imperial Guards.

The two towns of the Jinluo Imperial Army have been stationed in Congzhou Prefecture, which has only three counties left. They did not participate in the battle with the Dayan army last year. However, their strength has not been lost. The two towns have about 70,000 officers and soldiers in total.

However, the 35th and 36th towns of the Jinluo Imperial Army have only been established for less than three years, and there is still a big gap in combat effectiveness compared with the top towns.

In addition, the Jinluo Kingdom also transferred 80,000 troops, and the 35th and 36th towns of the Jinluo Imperial Army were stationed in the territory of these three counties.

Xiahou Ning, the commander of the 35th Town of the Jinluo Imperial Guards and Xiahou Zhang, the commander of the 36th Town, were both children of the royal family of the Jinluo Kingdom. When the first guard of Congzhou, the second guard of Congzhou and the third guard of Congzhou were divided into three groups to launch an attack, Xiahou Ning and Xiahou Zhang had already gathered all the troops of the 35th Town of the Jinluo Imperial Guards and the 36th Town into Dongcongzhou, the capital of the former Dongcong Kingdom.

In addition, all the 80,000-fang army were transferred to Dongcong City. In other cities in Congzhou Prefecture, Jinluo Kingdom, only some yamen runners were left to guard the city, and these yamen runners were all Dongcong people.

This made Congzhou's first guard, Congzhou's second guard, and Congzhou's third guard sent troops, and soon captured more than ten cities without bloodshed.

The three counties of Congzhou Prefecture, including the Dongcongcheng, the capital of the Jinluo Kingdom, have only twenty-six cities, including three counties and twenty-two counties.

Xiahou Ning and Xiahou Zhang chose to give up three county towns and twenty-two county towns, which was a helpless move.

The Dongcong people were quite hated to the Jinluo Kingdom. Once the 35th and 36th towns guarded twenty-six cities, it would be easy to be defeated by the troops under Li Bin. It is very likely that the troops under Li Bin's command had just arrived outside the city and the Dongcong people in the city would launch a rebellion to respond.

At that time, the Jinluo army needs to deal with the army outside the city and suppress the rebellion in the city. It is not easy to defend the city!

Xiahou Ning and Xiahou Zhang had to mobilize all the available troops in their hands to Dongcong City, where the city defense fortifications are relatively complete, hoping to rely on Dongcong City to drag down the army under Li Bin's command.

The Ministry of War of the Jinluo Kingdom had clearly told Xiahou Ning and Xiahou Zhang that they would not get any reinforcements before defeating the main force of the invading army of Yan State. If things were not done, they could lead the army to retreat to Xiangzhou Prefecture.

Xiahou Ning and Xiahou Zhang were neither willing to give up Congzhou Prefecture, but they all knew that it was impossible to defend the entire Congzhou Prefecture with just their two towns and the 80,000-flank army, so they decided to only defend Dongcongzhou City.

As long as Dongcong City is not lost, it can restrain at least two or three hundred thousand troops under Li Bin and reduce the pressure on Xiangzhou Prefecture. The original Dongcong Kingdom only borders Xiangzhou Prefecture of Jinluo Kingdom.

In order to defend Dongcong City, Xiahou Ning and Xiahou Zhang ordered their troops to drive almost all the young and strong men among the people in Dongcong City out of the city, leaving only 300,000 old, young, women and children who were not threatening were left in Dongcong City, and also stockpiled enough food for 150,000 troops to eat for a year in Dongcong City.

On the morning of April 26, the main force of the first guard of Congzhou, led by coach Cheng Pu and deputy coach Pan Zhang, came outside Dongcong City.

The First Guard of Congzhou has six brigades under its jurisdiction, each brigade has five battalions under its jurisdiction, and each battalion has ten teams under its jurisdiction, with a total force of more than 80,000 people.

Previously, the First Guard of Congzhou captured a county city and three county towns, and stationed two battalions of troops in the county city, and placed one battalion of troops in each of the three county towns. Therefore, the First Guard of Congzhou came to only five brigades of troops outside Dongcongzhou City. In addition, the guards of Cheng Pu and Pan Zhang had about 67,000 people.

Standing on the city wall, Xiahou Ning, the commander of the 35th town of Jinluo Imperial Army, looked at the tens of thousands of Yan troops who were camping ten miles away, and couldn't help but snorted coldly, "That Li Bin underestimated our two towns too much. He actually sent only tens of thousands of troops to attack Dongcong City!"

At this time, the brilliance of Xiahou Zhang, the head coach of the 36th town next to him, looked in his eyes, "Why might as well give these arrogant Yan soldiers a warning! I want to see what Li Bin can train those fushimen and Dongcong people?"

Xiahou Ning slapped the battlements of the city wall with his hand and echoed loudly: "Okay! Let's try what this Yan army is like!"

Cheng Pu and Pan Zhang, who were commanding their soldiers to set up camp, learned that a Jinluo army had left Dongcongcheng, and immediately led the First Brigade and Second Brigade of the First Guard of Congzhou to meet them.

Xiahou Ning and Xiahou Zhang each led a brigade when they left the city this time, which together were two brigades. However, one brigade of the Jinluo Imperial Army had only more than 6,700 people, while one brigade of the First Guard of Congzhou had more than 13,000 people, and the force was almost twice as high as one brigade of the Jinluo Imperial Army.

After the two armies formed, Xiahou Ning turned his head and said to General Jin Luo, a member behind him, "Xiuyuan, go up and call the battle, and see if someone dares to fight the Yan army."

The general Jin Luo is named Feng An, with the courtesy name Xiuyuan. He is 25 years old this year. He is a battalion leader in the 35th town of the Jin Luo Imperial Guard. Although he is only a warrior of Huajin, he is nearly two meters tall and has great strength. His strength is not weaker than that of ordinary master warriors.

Hearing the commander asking him to go up and call, Feng An immediately said loudly: "Don't worry, General Manager, if the Yan army dares to send people to fight, his subordinates will kill several enemy generals for the commander to boost the army's power!"

Then Feng An urged the horse to come to the front of the two armies and shouted loudly: "Feng An, General of the Central Army of Xuanwei, Jinluo Kingdom, can anyone dare to fight me?"

The official positions of the Great Yan Imperial Guard and the Jinluo Imperial Guard are almost exactly the same. Among the Jinluo Imperial Guard, the deputy brigade leader is from the fourth-rank Xuanwei General.

In this world, when the two armies confront each other, both sides often send generals to fight against each other in front of the two armies to demonstrate the courage of their generals, hoping to increase the morale of their army through the victory of the generals.

Of course, the fight against generals is not a must. If one side of the war is unwilling to send generals to fight against generals in front of the two armies, then the other side has no choice.

Seeing that the Jin Luo army sent a general to challenge the two armies, Cheng Pu and a general behind Pan Zhang asked for battle and said, "Master, Deputy Commander, Yuan Zhi is willing to fight, and he will kill the head of this Jin Luo dog!"

Yuan Zhi was a native of Dongcong. He was originally a battalion leader of the Dongcong army. After being injured and captured by the Jinluo army, he was forcibly recruited to the minion army of Jinluo and his other prisoners of war from the Dongcong army. Later, Yuan Zhi and nearly 300,000 Dongcong soldiers defected to Li Bin.

Yuan Zhi has good martial arts skills and is already a martial artist. In the process of forming the First Guard of Congzhou, Yuan Zhi was highly appreciated by Cheng Pu and Pan Zhang. He is now a deputy brigade leader of the Second Guard of Congzhou.

Cheng Pu hesitated for a moment, then nodded slightly to Yuan Zhi and said, "Be careful. If the opponent slams his hand, he will retreat. The victory or defeat of a fight is not much related to whether our first guard in Congzhou can conquer Dongcongcheng."

Pan Zhang immediately said: "The outcome of a fight is really irrelevant. If you can't win, you will retreat."

When Yuan Zhi heard Cheng Pu, Pan Zhang agreed to go to the battle, "Master, don't worry, deputy commander, I will bring back the head of the Jin Luo dog!"

Yuan Zhi urged the horse to come to the two armies, pointed at Feng An with a long sword in his hand, and his eyes were full of murderous aura, "Jin Luo Dog, Yuan Zhi of Dayan will come to take your dog's life today!"

Feng An's eyes were also full of murderous aura, "Don't show off your verbal pleasure. Feng's neck is here. If you have the ability, come and get it!"

The two of them didn't talk like a speculative person, and then they fought together.

Like Yuan Zhi, Feng An has long swords, but Feng An's long sword weighs more than 70 kilograms, while Yuan Zhi's long sword is only more than 30 kilograms. Feng An has an absolute advantage in strength.

Seeing this, Pan Zhang frowned and said to Cheng Pu: "The general of Jinluo Kingdom seems to be much bigger than Yuan Zhi in terms of strength. I think it should be the sound of Jin and let Yuan Zhi retreat."

Cheng Pu nodded and said, "Then let people..."

However, before Cheng Pu finished speaking, Yuan Zhi was knocked away by Feng An with a knife. Feng An then took advantage of the situation and cut off Yuan Zhi's head.

Seeing that the two sides had only four rounds of fighting, the general who was fighting on his own was cut off by the generals of the Jin Luo Army, which made the cheers of the Yan Army suddenly stop, while the cheers of the Jin Luo Army were rising higher and higher.

Feng An turned over and dismounted, picked up Yuan Zhi's head, hung it on his horse, and then put a long sword in his hand, "Feng An, the General General of Xuanwei of Jinluo Kingdom, is here, which Yan dog will die again!"

Cheng Pu and dozens of generals behind Pan Zhang were in anger at this time and asked Cheng Pu and Pan Zhang to fight, wanting to go up and avenge Yuan Zhi. However, a trace of murderous aura flashed in Pan Zhang's eyes and said to Cheng Pu: "Demou, this general of Jin Luo Kingdom has a good martial arts skills. I'd better meet him when I go up and go up and!"

Cheng Pu nodded slightly and said, "Wen Gui, then be careful."

Demou is the character "子子" by Cheng Pu, and Wen Gui is the character "子子".

Pan Zhang urged the horse to come to the front of the two armies and pointed the long-handed sword at Feng An with one hand, "Big Yan Pan Zhang!"

Feng An smiled grimly and said, "Since another person who died, I'll send you on the way!"

When the two fought, Feng An was shocked. The power he was proud of could not suppress Pan Zhang, and even seemed to suffer some losses in terms of strength.

However, Feng An did not feel afraid because of this. Instead, he became more and more brave and became more and more brave. He fought back and forth with Pan Zhang and soon fought hard for more than 30 rounds.

Xiahou Ning, the head coach of the 35th town in front of the Jinluo Imperial Army, saw that Feng An had not defeated the Yan army's generals who had used more than 30 rounds and had not defeated the Yan army to fight, and frowned at Xiahou Zhang, the head coach of the 36th town, and asked: "This Yan State is very powerful. Do you think Feng An can win?"

Xiahou Zhang is 30 years old this year and is the brother of Xiahou Ben, the commander of the third town of the Jinluo Imperial Army. Xiahou Ben is known as the number one master of the Jinluo royal family. As his elder brother, Xiahou Zhang is not weak in martial arts and is also a master warrior.

Xiahou Zhang said with a serious expression: "This fierce general of Yan State is likely to be a master warrior. It is not easy for Feng An to defeat him."

Just as Xiahou Zhang finished speaking, a sudden change occurred in front of the two armies.

When Pan Zhang and Feng An and the other two were in trouble with stirrups, Pan Zhang grabbed a flaw in Feng An's move and used the iron cone at the tail of the long knife to hit Feng An's throat.

Although Feng An's neck was protected by armor and the iron cone at the tail of the knife hilt did not penetrate the iron blades of the armor, Pan Zhang's powerful and heavy blow directly knocked Feng An off the war horse and shattered Feng An's collarbone.

Feng An fell to the ground, covered his neck with his hands and struggled for a few times, and then there was no movement again.

Seeing Pan Zhang killing the powerful general of Jin Luo's army, the Yan army immediately boosted its morale and cheers almost echoed.

After Feng An was killed, Xiahou Ning and the generals behind Xiahou Zhang did not say hello to Xiahou Ning and Xiahou Zhang, and then urged the horse to rush to the two armies and shouted angrily: "Yan Gou, give my elder brother his life!"

It turned out that the one who urged the horse to rush out was Feng An's younger brother Feng Ji, who was also a battalion leader of the 35th town of Jinluo's Imperial Army, and was also a martial artist.

However, Feng Ji's martial arts are much weaker than his brother Feng An. After only three rounds of fighting with Pan Zhang, he was stabbed by Pan Zhang.

Next, the two generals from the 36th Town of the Jinluo Imperial Army also came to the two armies one after another, but no one could have gone through ten rounds under Pan Zhang's hands and died under Pan Zhang's sword.

Xiahou Ning, the head coach of the 35th Town of the Jinluo Imperial Army, asked the generals behind him with a pale face and said, "Whoever takes the head of this Yan general, I will reward 500 taels of gold!"

It is logical that there must be a brave man under heavy rewards, but Pan Zhang killed four powerful generals in a row, which made the generals of the 35th and 36th towns of the Jinluo Imperial Army feel timid. After Xiahou Ning finished speaking, the situation suddenly became unstoppable, and no general was willing to fight again.

At this time, Xiahou Zhang, the head coach of the 36th town, said in a deep voice: "Brother, I will go up and meet this powerful general from Yan State!"

When Xiahou Ning heard this, hesitated a little on his face, "Debi, are you sure you can win? Why not just send the cavalry troops to launch a charge!"

Debi is the face of Xiahou Ning.

Xiahou Zhang pondered for a moment and said, "Don't worry, brother, even if I can't win, I'm sure I will escape unstoppable. This is the first time that our two towns have fought with the Yan army. We can't easily admit defeat in the battle!"
