The fire in the Tang camp was burning wildly in the night sky, and the fire became more and more fierce, and it had swallowed up the entire camp. It could no longer stay in the camp, and almost all the Tang soldiers escaped from the camp.

In the wilderness, the Tang army threw away their armor and fled in all directions under the moonlight, but a group of Sui cavalry blocked their escape route. The Tang soldiers were desperate and knelt down and surrendered.

‘Captain the King of Qi, and reward him with a reward of 1,000 taels, and be granted the title of Duke of Kaiguo County!’

With a generous reward, the soldiers of the Sui army went crazy and searched for the whereabouts of the King of Qi Li Yuanji, and tortured the captured soldiers, but found nothing. Li Yuanji might have escaped in advance.

Luo Shixin led 6,000 cavalry to be in charge of the encirclement and suppression in the southwest direction. He dispersed the army, and five generals led 1,000 cavalry to intercept deserters in different directions.

He himself led a thousand people to block the official road in the southwest direction, but most of the defeated Tang army fled at will, and did not follow the official road, but ran wildly in the wilderness.

In just a moment, Luo Shixin led his men to intercept thousands of deserters. The thousands of deserters had been discarded. They were wearing thin clothes, squatting on the ground, crowding together, and trembling with fear. Luo Shixin yelled: "You don't have to be afraid, as long as you surrender, you won't hurt you."

At this time, a Sui cavalry rushed over and reported loudly: "General, discover Li Yuanji's whereabouts!"

Luo Shixin was overjoyed and asked quickly: "Where are the people?"

The soldier pointed westward, "Just shortly after escaping, four or five hundred guards, and one prisoner said that he was dressed up as a soldier."

Luo Shixin glanced at the prisoners of war and immediately ordered: "Leave three hundred people to take care of the prisoners of war, and the rest of the brothers come with me!"

He turned his horse's head and ran westward, but just after running for more than a dozen steps, he heard a soldier behind him shouting: "General, someone has escaped again!"

Luo Shixin turned around and saw a large group of Tang cavalry about a hundred steps away, with about three or four hundred people, surrounded by a general, with iron armor and silver helmets, and a bearded man on his face.

Luo Shixin narrowed his eyes, and there was a terrifying murderous intent in his eyes. He had seen this person when he was fighting with the Wagang Army. It was Chang He, the general who surrounded and killed his master Zhang Xutuo. It was a narrow road for enemies.

"General, won't we go after Li Yuanji?" a captain said next to him.

At this time, Chang He also saw Luo Shixin. He also knew Luo Shixin. His eyes suddenly showed horror. This was Zhang Xutuo's disciple. He was almost killed by him at Dahai Temple last time.

He turned his horse's head and immediately ran down the official road and fled south. A huge problem was placed in front of Luo Shixin. One was the prince of the Tang Dynasty, who led his army to flee west. The other was his enemy who killed his troops, who led his army to flee south.

Li Yuanji's personal guards have hundreds of people, all of which are extremely elite troops. It is absolutely unrealistic to divide the troops to pursue them. No matter who escapes, it is difficult for these two people to have another chance to catch them?

Should he take the overall situation into consideration or take revenge? Luo Shixin's teeth almost bit his lips. In this short moment, he experienced a huge painful choice. Finally, he gritted his teeth and shouted: "I will apologize to the general manager!"

As soon as he urged the horse to chase south, he urged him around another small path, and the seven hundred Sui cavalry followed him closely.

Chang He led his personal guards to escape from the camp shortly after the fire burned. Unexpectedly, he was intercepted by the Sui cavalry as soon as he went up to Guan Dao. He recognized Luo Shixin and was frightened. He didn't care about his soldiers and ran away desperately.

After running for more than thirty miles in one breath, he had entered Hongnong County. The hills were undulating and dense forests were dense. At this time, the sky was gradually brighter, and the morning light was dim, and a layer of mist enveloped the earth.

Chang He looked back and saw that there was no one behind him. The horse under his crotch was Zhang Xutuo's green horse, and the BMW given to Zhang Xutuo by Emperor Yang Guang of Sui. The horsepower was strong and he actually threw away his subordinates far away.

After waiting for nearly a quarter of an hour, his personal soldiers arrived one after another. After waiting for a long time, no one came again and they all escaped. Chang He Guiji defeated his troops, leaving only more than a hundred people.

A brigade coach asked, "General, where are we going now?"

Chang He sighed, "Let's go back to Chang'an first! I don't know how King Qi is pushing me the blame!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a shout: "Chang Thief, where can you escape!"

When Chang He turned his head, he saw a Sui cavalry fighting out of a small path on the left, about six or seven hundred people. The leader general was tall and brave, holding a large iron spear in his hand, majestic and staring at him with hatred. It was his enemy Luo Shixin.

Chang He was so scared that he lost his soul. The war horse took a few steps back. He wanted to escape, but he was powerless and had to bite the bullet and wave the long sword forward.

"Luo Shixin, I have no grudges and grudges with you, why are you so reluctant to pursue me?"

Luo Shixin sneered and gritted his teeth and said, "Is there really no grievance or grudge?"

"I know you mean Zhang Xutuo, but he committed suicide and died on the battlefield. What kind of hatred does he have?"

"fart!"

Luo Shixin yelled, "Chang thief, come with your life!"

He urged his horse to move forward, and he stabbed him when he was distracted. The iron spear was as fast as lightning. Chang He was so scared that he was so busy that he raised his sword and separated him. He used a long sword weighing fifty pounds. Seeing the spear stabbed, he tried hard to move outward.

With a muffled sound, the big iron spear was extremely heavy, and he could not even be able to open it. With a sound of "Puff!", the big iron spear pierced Chang He's chest, and the tip of the spear came out from his back.

Luo Shixin pulled out his gun and looked at Chang He coldly. Chang He stared at Luo Shixin blankly, with a look of despair in his eyes. Finally, there was no hope in his eyes, and he turned over and fell to his horse and died.

Luo Shixin turned over and dismounted, took off his master's seven-star cold moon knife from Chang He's war horse, pulled out the battle knife, raised his sword and chopped off Chang He's head. Luo Shixin couldn't help but roared to the sky.

When more than 100 Chang He's subordinates saw that the master was dead, they all turned their heads and fled. Only Chang He's lonely body was left on the mountain road.

.........

The fire burned all night, and by dawn, the fire in the Tang army camp had gradually extinguished, the entire camp burned to white ground, and the encirclement and suppression of the Tang army had also stopped, and more than 23,000 Tang army members were captured in total.

Accompanied by dozens of generals, Yang Yuanqing inspected the burned Tang camp. Not far from the Tang camp, the captured weapons were piled up like mountains. Teams of Tang army prisoners passed by under the surveillance of Sui soldiers.

"The lesson is profound!"

Yang Yuanqing sighed and said to the generals: "As long as there are more than twenty people, plus a fire, it will destroy an army without spending a soldier. This shows the importance of camping and defense. Everyone should remember. During the war, try not to camp outside the field, and station in the city. It is better to march at night than to be careless."

Everyone nodded silently. Although the Tang army's defeat this time was a bit incredible, it actually happened. It cannot be said that the Tang army was careless, it was indeed impossible to guard against.

The fundamental reason is that there is a problem with the camp. It shouldn't be stationed on the ground, which makes the cavalry a serious threat to the camp, forcing the Tang army to gather heavy troops to deal with it, thus dispersing the Tang army's defense.

At this time, Xiao Yannian led twenty scouts to come forward and kneel down on one knee, "I am lucky to be humble to have a bad job, so I will hand over the order to the general manager!"

Twenty scouts and cavalrymen also knelt down together. Yang Yuanqing glanced at them and asked, "Is there any brother who are injured or killed?"

"Report to the supervisor, no one was injured or killed."

Yang Yuanqing nodded. "This time you have made your first contribution. I, Yang Yuanqing, will be rewarded for me, and each of you will be promoted to the commander. Xiao Yannian will be promoted to the commander, and you will be rewarded with two thousand taels of silver and two thousand pieces of silk."

Everyone was overjoyed, "Mr. Thank you for your reward!"

At this time, a soldier came to report, "General Luo is back."

Yang Yuanqing's face darkened and he said sternly: "Take him up!"

After a moment, Luo Shixin was brought up, and he knelt down on one knee and said, "I chased Chang He and I will hand over the order to the general manager."

Yang Yuanqing snorted, "Is it because Chang He is easy to kill, and Li Yuanji is difficult to deal with, so you can pick up the soft pinch?"

Luo Shixin lowered his head and said for a while: "Bei Zhi has personal grudges with Chang He, so he finally chose to avenge his personal grudges, but did not pursue Li Yuanji. Bei Zhi is guilty!"

Yang Yuanqing looked at him for a while, and he felt helpless. He knew that Luo Shixin was chasing Chang He to avenge his master Zhang Xutuo. He just hoped that Luo Shixin could give him a reason, why not pursue Li Yuanji, but to pursue Chang He.

For example, it is not certain whether the information is accurate, such as Li Yuanji has gone away and cannot catch up, etc. But this guy is honest, letting Li Yuanji go for personal revenge, which makes it difficult for him to deal with.

After a moment of silence, Yang Yuanqing asked again: "Then can you catch up with Chang He?"

Luo Shixin took the package from his back, unbuttoned it, and raised his hands high, "Please look at it!"

The head in the package was Chang He. Yang Yuanqing nodded and said to Luo Shixin: "Although you have made great contributions to kill Chang He, you have no distinction between your master and your secondary, so that Li Yuanji escaped. This is your responsibility. I will punish you for not having any merits in this battle. Can you be convinced?"

Luo Shixin was grateful in his heart and said in a deep voice: "I am convinced!"

...........

In the big tent, Luo Shixin silently placed a knife in front of Yang Yuanqing. Yang Yuanqing slowly picked up the Seven-Star Cold Moon Sword. He was so familiar with this knife that he held the knife and the past that was hidden deep in his memory surged out one by one.

I remember when I was five years old, when I was learning martial arts on my first day, my master used this knife to cut an ice hole on the ice surface and threw him into the ice hole like a chicken.

．

．

．

．

I still remember when he was seven years old, he accidentally dropped the knife into the Qujiang Pool. The master was snatched in the lake with him all night. In the end, he caught it first, and the smile appeared on the master's face.

Yang Yuanqing gently stroked a line of words on the hilt of the knife, "Sentenced by Yuanqing". This knife was the master's ancestral treasure sword. He had no son in his knees, so he actually passed it to himself. At this moment, Yang Yuanqing felt like crying. The master regarded him as his son, and he also regarded his master as his father.

"Senior brother, and Master's horse."

Luo Shixin whispered: "Just outside the tent, senior brother, go and have a look!"

Yang Yuanqing shook his head, "That's Yang Guang's green horse. As my identity, it is ominous. If you like it, stay it!"

Luo Shixin lowered his head and said ashamed: "Senior brother, I'm sorry, I let Li Yuanji go."

Yang Yuanqing smiled slightly, "Li Yuanji will be of great use in the dispute between Li. Even if I catch him, I will let him go. In fact, I just want to use him to blackmail Li Tang a piece of food. However, with this group of Guanzhong prisoners of war, Dugu Huaien and Shi Dana, it doesn't matter whether to capture Li Yuanji."

"Thank you for your forgiveness, brother!"

Yang Yuanqing patted Luo Shixin on the shoulder, "Practice the use of strength well, I look forward to another battle between you and Li Xuanba."
