Chapter 572: The battle in Sishui begins

"General Zhang, this is a war letter sent by Yang Yanzhao. He invited us to fight in three days. Look!" Kou Fei handed the war letter sent by Yang Yanzhao to Zhang Jie, his face was very serious. After many years, he had never met someone who fought decisively after a disagreement. Shouldn't the normal idea be to test each other and seek good opportunities? No one can fight directly as soon as he came up.

Zhang Jie took the letter of war, opened it and looked at it, and then said disdainfully: "Yang Yanzhao is really so anxious that he is eager to succeed, and he actually plans to decide the outcome in one battle. Could it be that he really thinks that Deng Jun is invincible in the world?"

"General Zhang thought, should we accept this battle?" Kou Fei asked again. It was one thing for Yang Yanzhao to issue a letter of war, but it was another thing for them to accept it.

Zhang Jie thought for a while and said, "I feel that I can take it. After all, the strength of both sides is equal. If you really fight, it may not be certain who will lose and who will win. Moreover, this is Xia Pi, not Guangling. Speaking of which, our chances of winning are still above Deng's army."

"However, Yang Yanzhao is one of the three generals of Deng State after all, and his pattern and ability are world-class. Since he dares to fight directly, he will definitely rely on something. If he rashly fights against him, he may fall into his trap. It's not that I am afraid of Deng's army and dare not respond to the battle, but I just think it needs to be thoughtful." Kou Fei said cautiously.

"Haha!" Zhang Jie smiled disdainfully and said, "Do General Kou look down on Yang Yanzhao too much? If he really had the ability, why would he be left in Wancheng by Emperor Deng for so many years? To be honest, if this time he came Yue Fei, Chang Yuchun, or even Xue Rengui, I might be a little afraid, but Yang Yanzhao, who has a false reputation, why should he be afraid?"

It makes sense that Zhang Jie is so arrogant. Since he followed Li Rubing, he has only suffered losses at Yue Fei. After the Battle of Central Plains, he has made great progress in Guangling. He once suppressed Yongping Guards to fight, and the Yongping Guards couldn't raise their heads. If there were no problems in the rear, he might have broken Guangling City long ago, and there were no such things as Xia Pi City.

"So what General Zhang means is, let's fight?" Kou Fei said.

"That's natural. Since Yang Yanzhao was so anxious to die, we should fulfill him. I want Yang Yanzhao to know that we are not the generals of Deng State and will spoil him, nor are the wastes of Wu State and Xiang State. In front of my Great Zhao Xiong Army, his methods are insignificant." Zhang Jie nodded, with a strong sense of fighting in his eyes.

"Okay, I'll send someone to see Yang Yanzhao now. I'll take on this battle, but the Deng army must not underestimate it. When the war starts, it's better to act according to the opportunity." Kou Fei said.

"I have seen General Yang, and I am here to take the order of General Kou and General Zhang to take over the battle three days later. This is the reply from the two generals. Please also ask General Yang to take a look!" In the Deng army's central tent, the Zhao army envoy handed the reply from Kou Fei and Zhang Jie to Yang Yanzhao.

Yang Yanzhao nodded, took the reply, but did not open it and read it as soon as possible, but said to the messenger: "You go back and tell Kou Fei and Zhang Jie, and you will say that I will receive a reply. See you in three days, go back!"

"Goodbye next!"

After the envoy left, Yang Yanzhao said to everyone: "Three days will be the day of the decisive battle. The success or failure will be at that time. Please go back and prepare for your life and win this battle for me, Da Deng!"

"Please rest assured, General, I, Da Deng, will win this battle!" Everyone responded in unison.

Three days later, that is, the 28th year of Qianyuan, on May 13, the Deng and Zhao armies set up their formation on the banks of the Sishui River, and the total total force of the two sides reached more than 300,000.

In front of the two armies, Kou Fei and Zhang Jie looked at each other, then rode their horses out of the battle, shouting loudly at the Deng army's position: "Kou Fei (Zhang Jie) Please tell General Yang Yanzhao!"

When he heard that Kou Fei and Zhang Jie and the other two were about to meet him, Yang Yanzhao also rode his horse out of the battle as soon as possible and replied: "I am Yang Yanzhao. I don't know General Kou, what will General Zhang have to do with him?"

Zhang Jie smiled and said, "General Yang's name is well known. But I heard that General Yang has been stationed in Wancheng for many years and has not been to the battlefield in person for many years. I wonder how brave he was back then? Why should he come to this muddy water? If he had lost his stern name under Xia Pi City, wouldn't it be weaker for the general's reputation for many years?"

Although Zhang Jie's words were not very intense, the meaning expressed was that he looked down on Yang Yanzhao.

When the generals of Deng army heard this, they were all very angry, but Yang Yanzhao was not angry. After all, after so many years of precipitation, Yang Yanzhao was still well cultivated, and it was not something that Zhang Jie could only anger with just words.

"Oh..." Yang Yanzhao sighed and said, "There is no hero at that time, so he made his son famous. A child in Huangkou dared to speak loudly. It is really a world of decline. Looking back on the past, when I was on the battlefield, you were still a child. Today, you dared to show off your power in front of me. Could it be that you regarded yourself as Zhao Xin?"

"Hmph!" Zhang Jie sneered and said, "Yang Yanzhao, you are old too. If you don't want to live your life in Wancheng, you will be embarrassed here. What are the three generals of Deng State? Today, Japan will reveal your true colors!"

Upon hearing this, Yang Yanzhao stopped talking, turned his head back to the formation, and said to everyone: "The battle is about to begin. I wonder which general is willing to go and make a contribution?"

"The last general Guan Ling is willing to take the first contribution for our army!" Guan Ling responded, then rode his horse out of the formation, came to the front of the two armies, and shouted loudly: "I am Guan Ling, the general of the Great Deng Yongping Guard. The general of the Zhao army opposite, who dares to fight!"

"Guan Ling has also grown up, and she has the style of his father Guan Sheng!" Looking at Guan Ling in front of him, Yang Yanzhao sighed. When Guan Sheng was still there, he was only one level lower than him. They had a good relationship with each other. When Guan Sheng died in the battlefield, Yang Yanzhao felt very regretful. Now seeing Guan Sheng's descendants are so majestic, Yang Yanzhao couldn't help but sigh.

Guan Yu, who was standing by, was also very comforted when he saw the style of his nephew. Guan Sheng died early, leaving only Guan Ling, and he only had two sons. The eldest son Guan Ping and the second son Guan Suo had already joined the army. However, compared with Guan Ling, the difference is not a little bit. In the future, Guan Ling must be Guan Ling.

"Who is going to fight this general?" Kou Fei turned his head and said to the generals under his command. The generals under Zhang Jie and Yongpingwei are also old opponents, and they also have some understanding of Guan Ling's strength, so they are not in a hurry to stand out. On the contrary, the generals brought by Kou Fei from Pengcheng are eager to try.

A general rode his horse out of the battle and came to Guan Ling, holding a spear and shouted loudly: "I am Shi Shideng, General Zhao, Guan Ling, come to die!" After that, he held a spear and stabbed Guan Ling!

"Overbial power!" Guan Ling's eyes cold, and she gently waved the long sword in her hand to block Shi Shiden's attack.

"What!" Seeing Guan Ling taking his own attack so easily, Shi Shiden was shocked. He thought that although his strength in the Zhao army was not as good as the top, he could still be the best. At least under Kou Fei's command, his strength could also enter the top five. Now Guan Ling blocked his attack so easily, Shi Shiden was not surprised.

Shi Shideng knew very well that Guan Ling's strength was probably above him. Although the attack just now was not all-out, he could go on so easily. Looking at the entire Zhao army, there were very few except for the top generals. No wonder Li Rubing often said that the fierce generals in the Deng army seemed to be true.

Thinking of this, Shi Shideng no longer had any reservations at the moment and used all his strength to attack Guan Ling. I have to say that Shi Shideng still has some ability, and Guan Ling has become more serious from the beginning, but how can Shi Shideng deal with it seriously?

I saw Guan Ling using his unique skills to the Spring and Autumn Sword Arts, which was taught to him by Guan Yu. Guan Sheng died early and did not teach Guan Ling anything. Guan Sheng's junior brother Hua Xiong was too far from Guan Yu's strength. Guan Ling had no reason not to learn Guan Yu's ability, but instead learned Hua Xiong's.

"Dun!" As the swords and guns touched each other, Shi Shiden took several steps in a row, very embarrassed, looking at Guan Ling with his eyes solemnly. Now that the two of them have fought for less than ten rounds, they have been completely suppressed. This is not a solution.

"Ling'er is still too young and has insufficient experience in fighting generals. Otherwise, this general Zhao would either die or be seriously injured at this time. However, Ling'er's strength should be no less than me!" Guan Yu in Deng's army said with a frown when he saw Guan Ling who had the upper hand.

In Guan Yu's opinion, although Shi Shideng has some skills, he must not be compared with Guan Ling. With Guan Ling's strength, if it were not for the lack of experience of the general, Shi Shideng would either die or be seriously injured.

"Since that's the case, I'll ask General Guan to teach him more in the future. We are old and rely on these young people to support the vast sky of Da Deng in the future. After all, Guan Ling is also General Guan Guan's nephew." Yang Yanzhao touched his beard and said.

"Don't worry, General, I know what to do." Guan Yu nodded and said.

At this time, Guan Ling and Shi Shideng also decided to win. Guan Ling's firepower was fully opened, and Shi Shideng could not stop it at all. He was suppressed by Guan Ling with all his strength. In the end, he could only take Guan Ling's attack on his left shoulder and then flee back to his original formation in a hurry.

When Deng's army saw Guan Ling defeating the enemy general, their morale was immediately high, but the morale of the Zhao army seemed a little depressed.

"General Zhang, General Zhang once said that there are many powerful generals in Deng's army, and we may suffer a loss in fighting generals. It seems that the fighting general cannot continue." Kou Fei frowned and said to Zhang Jie.

The powerful generals of Deng’s army, Ruyun, have long been well known to everyone in the world, but Kou Fei has never fought with Deng’s army’s powerful generals, and he has several powerful generals in his hands, so he is just lucky. However, now Deng’s army can easily defeat the top five generals under his command by just one general, which shows its strength.
