The Way of Rebirth

Chapter 208: Yang Jian’s Detective Circle and Song Bangren’s Fire Ox at Night

Jiang Ziya led the generals back to the camp, and everyone sat in silence. After all, the boundary barrier in front of Xiqi's army was a mountain of depression in everyone's hearts. Song Bangren, the boundary barrier guard,

All that was brought to Xiqi was fear and oppression. Not to mention that Song Bangren led the army to attack Xiqi and destroyed half of the strength that Xiqi had worked so hard to develop. It was just that he had just effortlessly defeated the two men in the Xiqi camp.

The master easily captured him, and for a while the atmosphere in the Xiqizhong military camp was very depressing.

At this moment, Jiang Ziya was stroking his beard with one hand and tapping aimlessly on the desk in front of him with the other hand. At this time, Jiang Ziya was also at a loss when facing the boundary sign. In terms of strategy and military strategy, Song Bangren was clearly superior to Jiang Ziya.

, using Jiang Ziya's method to fight Song Bangren is just asking for death; in terms of martial arts, Song Bangren is more than one level higher than Xiqi. The troops and horses under Song Bangren's command are all elite cavalry, including Song Bangren himself.

His martial prowess is probably invincible in the world, and even the masters of teaching within his own sect may not be able to defeat him. This brave and scheming opponent is a man as resourceful and decisive as Jiang Ziya. For a moment, he felt that

Extremely tricky.

Just when everyone was thinking about their own thoughts, Nezha suddenly shouted: "Uncle Master, I have come up with a plan. Maybe we can safely cross the Jiepai Pass without using a single soldier!"

Hearing this, Jiang Ziya's face suddenly became extremely surprised, "What kind of advice do you have, my dear nephew? Please tell me quickly and come to my uncle to hear it!"

"Since we can't do anything about Song Bangren, and it's hard to get through Jiepai Pass, why can't we lead the army to take a detour?!" Nezha looked at Jiang Ziya and asked, "There is a road north of Jiepai Pass that directly connects Lintong

Pass and Jiameng Pass, we can lead the army from this way to Lintong Pass, then fight back from behind the pass, can't we just surround Jiepaiguan?!"

"This is a great plan!" Jiang Ziya couldn't help but nod in praise after hearing this, but then lowered his head and bowed his head. After a long time, he shook his head and said, "Although this plan is wonderful, it is very dangerous to implement! You must know that once we close this realm,

Kong took a detour from that road here. Once the 600,000 troops left, the logistics supply line would be very long. What's more, our trip would definitely not be hidden from Song Bangren's eyes and ears. At that time, with Song Bangren's ability to command the troops,

I'm afraid that our army's backup line is full of dangers, and even our army's rear route will be harassed by him. Although the 600,000-strong army looks overwhelming, once the morale of our army is low, the 600,000-strong army will not be as powerful as his 30,000-strong army.

Cavalry! So what Nezha said is still a bit inappropriate!"

"Since this plan doesn't work, it seems that we can only capture Jiepai Pass!" Yang Jian heard this and said, "How about I use magic to escape into Jiepai Pass to find out the truth?!"

"That's good. Only when you know yourself and the enemy can you face the enemy calmly!" Jiang Ziya could only nod when he heard this, "Although Song Bangren did not cast any spells during the Western Expedition to Xiqi, I think this person's identity is mysterious and hidden very deeply.

Although Yang Jianxian's nephew has undergone seventy-two changes, it is better to be cautious and not get close to Song Bangren easily, so as not to be seen through!"

"Disciple understands!" Yang Jian said with cupped hands after hearing the words. After saying that, Yang Jian walked out of the big tent, grabbed a handful of dust and threw it into the air. He used the soil to escape and escaped into Jiepaiguan, and then turned into a mosquito and flew in the air.

Ask around for news about Jiepaiguan.

Song Bangren was talking to General Jiyuan beside him on the city wall. He suddenly frowned. Unfortunately, Song Bangren soon relaxed and said to the general next to him: "Wang Bao, Xiqi's army now has more than 600,000 soldiers."

Camping outside Jiepai Pass, although our generals are not afraid of his military strength, the officers inside the pass are only afraid. The general used his methods to capture two enemy soldiers. Although it slightly dampened the enemy's morale, it was not enough to encourage the morale of the troops.

, you can go out of the city to challenge!"

"General, take your orders!" The soldier said with cupped hands after hearing this. After saying that, he turned around and walked down the city wall, brought a good horse and rode on it. Then he turned and went straight to the outside of the Xiqi camp to call for formation. He saw Wang Bao holding a painted halberd.

Sitting down, the horses circled back and forth outside the gate. Seeing this, Song Bangren smiled slightly and looked at a place in the city. His right hand suddenly penetrated into his sleeve, his face remained unchanged and his expression was calm, and he looked into the Xiqi Walled City.

.

Jiang Ziya was waiting for news about Yang Jian in the tent. Suddenly he heard the sound of drums outside the tent. He couldn't help but feel his heart skip a beat. He was worried that something might happen to Yang Jian, so he hurriedly called the soldiers to ask what happened. The soldiers reported that there was a general from Jiepaiguan outside the camp.

Challenge the battle. Jiang Ziya was shocked when he heard this. He thought it was Song Bangren who had gone and returned, so he immediately asked the general about his appearance. After the soldier said something, Jiang Ziya felt that the person coming was not Song Bangren, so he looked inside the tent.

But he saw Su Hu sitting on the table with a very bad expression. Thinking that he and others were so useless, General Su was afraid that he would be angry in his heart. Why not send him out to fight, which would be a way to vent the anger of the old general?

, thinking of this, Jiang Ziya walked up to the banquet, took the general's order in his right hand and shouted loudly: "Where is Su Hu?!".

"The general is here!" Su Hu was still furious because everyone in Xiqi was so afraid that the gatekeeper would arrive. Suddenly, when he heard Jiang Ziya calling him, he hurriedly stood up and answered, "I wonder what the commander's orders are?!"

"Now there are generals from Jiepaiguan outside the camp who have come to challenge the battle. I think that the old general is very brave and can go to capture him to strengthen my power. It would be unforeseen. The old general can wait for Zhao Bing and Su Quanzhong to go with him!" Jiang Ziya said

.

"General, go and capture the enemy general who doesn't know whether to live or die!" Su Hu was overjoyed when he heard this, and immediately responded with his hands in hand. After saying that, he turned around and walked out of the tent to order Zhao Bing. Su Quanzhong and his two men led five hundred troops and opened the shaft.

The men walked out.

Wang Bao was shouting for war outside the Xiqiyuan Men. Seeing that the Xiqi Camp had not responded for a long time, he was about to withdraw and lead the army back to the pass to repeat the order. However, as soon as he turned around, he saw the Xiqiyuan Men opening wide and a group of people walking out.

The person at the head is wearing a golden phoenix helmet, a golden dragon coiled armor, a breastplate flashing with golden light on his chest, a red robe with a dragon behind him, a girdle around his waist, tiger roaring shoes on his feet, and a green horse under his crotch.

, holding a machete, looking at his appearance, he has a light golden complexion, broad sword eyebrows, eyes like bright stars, gray hair, and long beard, but he is Su Hu, the head of the Shang Dynasty.

While Wang Bao was looking at Su Hu, Su Hu was also looking up and down at the person in front of him, but he saw the guy in front of him, with a tiger's back and a wolf's waist, a leopard's head with ringed eyes, wearing a black swirling dragon robe, and a black ink Xuanwu helmet.

, a bay-red horse on its crotch, holding a painted halberd in its hand.

"Who dares to make loud noises outside my Xiqi camp?!" Su Hu pointed the sword at Wang Bao.

"Is the old general not the father-in-law of Jizhou, Hou Suhu?!" Wang Bao asked hurriedly when he saw the general coming.

"Although my name is Su Hu, I have no relationship with you, Shang Zhou, as son-in-law. Today you and I are fighting. There is no distinction between superiority and inferiority. There are only enemies and us!" Su Hu pointed at Wang Bao with the big knife in his hand and shouted, "Now Shang Zhou has no principles.

, the princes in the world have rebelled six hundred times, and the Great Shang Dynasty is in critical condition. If the general knows the truth, why not dismount and accept surrender!"

"As a merchant, how can I surrender to you?!" Wang Bao was furious when he heard this, "I only respect you because of your noble status. Since General Su is so rebellious, I will fight with you."

Let's see what you, an old man, can do!" After saying this, Wang Bao urged his horse to sit down and go to Su Hu to kill him.

"Let you see how powerful I am!" Su Hu didn't show any pretense when he saw this. He raised the machete in his hand and tried to kick the green horse under his crotch. Unexpectedly, Zhao Bing reached out and grabbed the saddle of the horse under Su Hu's crotch, "

Why does this person need the commander-in-chief to take action himself, and let the general capture this person for the commander-in-chief!" After saying this, Zhao Bing rode his horse and ran towards Wang Bao.

"Look at the halberd!" Wang Bao slashed the halberd in his hand at Zhao Bing. Zhao Bing blocked the long spear in his hand, and the two horses crossed in front of the formation. The two people riding on the horse kept moving the weapons in their hands.

The opponent was hit with a halberd in Wang Bao's hand, and his killing methods were varied, including chopping, stabbing, cutting, scratching, splitting, and smashing; while Zhao Bing's spear in his hand could stab, pick, smash, or chop.

, the two of them showed off their skills. You must know that it is very difficult to practice the halberd, and it consumes a lot of money. Therefore, as time went by, Wang Bao felt that he was unable to follow up. He hurriedly retreated from Zhao Bing, turned around and withdrew his horse, and Zhao Bing left.

Just when he was about to succeed, he saw Wang Bao take the first step and chase him wherever he was willing to let go.

Unexpectedly, although Wang Bao was running away, Wang Bao quietly moved the halberd with his right hand to his left hand, clamped his legs tightly on the horse, and kept listening to the movement behind him. Sure enough, he heard the sound of horse hoofs behind him not long after.

Come, the corner of Wang Bao's mouth slightly raised, knowing that Zhao Bing was really chasing after him, he immediately slowed down the horse. Seeing that the guy in front of him was getting closer and closer to him, Zhao Bing was secretly happy, so close that he stabbed Wang Bao with the spear in his hand.

He stabbed at his back, but unexpectedly, Wang Bao suddenly turned around and flicked his right hand, only to hear a thunder on the ground, and then Zhao Bing saw a bolt of lightning hit his face, and suddenly there was a ball of fire burning on his face, the pain was unbearable

How could he hold on, he turned over and fell off the horse, fell to the ground and fainted. Seeing this, Wang Bao was overjoyed, turned the horse's head and headed towards Zhao Bing.

Seeing this, Su Quanzhong was very anxious and shouted: "Don't be rude, rats, I will come to meet you!" After saying that, he urged his mount to kill Wang Bao. Wang Bao ignored him and waved his hand, just like a thunderbolt in his palm.

Su Quanzhong had already seen the fight between Zhao Bing and Wang Bao. Knowing the power of the thunder, he hurriedly stepped aside. When he looked again, he saw that Wang Bao had cut off Zhao Bing's head and ran towards the Jiepai Pass.

"Alas!" Su Hu let out a long sigh when he saw this, "I don't think this world is really powerful. Even this unknown general has a special skill. What about Song Bangren, who is so frightened by the commander and others?"

?!”.

"Father, what should we do now?!" Su Quanzhong heard this and asked Su Hu.

"Take it back first!" Su Hu looked at Jiepai Pass for a moment, then shook his head helplessly and said, then turned around and walked towards the Xiqi camp. Seeing this, Su Quanzhong had no choice but to lead his soldiers to follow.

Song Bangren stood on the city wall and looked carefully, and couldn't help but feel very happy in his heart. This Wang Bao still had some tricks. He only taught a small amount of thaumaturgy, but it could be used so skillfully. It was a pity that fate It was decided that he would be doomed. Thinking of this, Song Bangren couldn't help but sigh slightly in his heart.

At this time, Yang Jian turned into a mosquito and wandered around the Jiepai Pass. He had already inquired about the military supplies and equipment in the pass. When he went out of the city to report, he saw Song Bangren talking to a general. He couldn't help but feel very curious and worried about Song Bangren. There was another conspiracy, so he took advantage of the power of the seventy-two transformations to quietly fly to Song Bangren, lie on the general in front of Song Bangren and find out what Song Bangren was talking about.

"Only tonight, I will let Jiang Ziya know what a perfect strategy is and what a deceitful way of war is!" Yang Jian lay on top of the general and listened to the words in Song Bangren's mouth. He couldn't help but feel his heart skip a beat. Sure enough, Song Bangren had some conspiracy. The trick was about to be launched, but Song Bangren's words were flickering and unclear, and it was difficult for Yang Jian to hear anything. Song Bangren didn't even notice when he thought that he had hidden himself on this general. After thinking that he would not be able to do anything if he hid on him. Thinking of this, Yang Jian fluttered his wings and flew to Song Bangren.

After Song Bangren ordered Peng Zun to attack the Xiqi camp at night, he deliberately used magic power to transmit the words to Yang Jian's ears with a secret voice. When he saw that Yang Jian had fallen into the trap and flew to his side, he couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth slightly, and deliberately said the words again. He kept talking intermittently, and his vagueness attracted Yang Jian to fly to him. After a while, he heard a buzzing sound, and when he looked again, there was a mosquito and fly lying on Song Bangren. Song Bangren laughed loudly, and waved his hand to order Peng Zun. After leaving, he said: "How long do you want to stay hiding in my body like a thief?!"

When Yang Jian was intently inquiring about Song Bangren's calculations, he saw the general leaving suddenly in front of Song Bangren. He was shocked, and then he knew that he might have been exposed. He was about to spread his wings and fly away, but when he heard Song Bangren's words, his heart skipped a beat. His whole body was weak, and his cultivation seemed to be imprisoned by something, so he lost consciousness and fell into a coma.

Song Bangren took the box in his hand, "I never thought that this treasure box would be so powerful. Even Yang Jian couldn't stop it and just fainted. That's all. Yang Jian doesn't have to worry about his life at this moment. Even if it's a punishment for him," Song Bangren said Thinking of this, he put the treasure box into his sleeve, turned around and walked down the city wall with a smile.

It was a night where the starry sky was covered with dark clouds, the stars were dim, the moon was hidden in the sky, and the wind and clouds were surging, which seemed to be full of murderous intent. Inside the Jiepai Pass, Song Bangren was riding a purple-gold red rabbit horse, pointing at the Xiqi Camp in the distance with a painted halberd in his hand, "Jiang Ziya relied on the strength of his troops and horses, and he actually If he dares to camp for hundreds of miles at Jiepaiguan, tonight I will teach him how to march and fight. Someone will open the city gates wide and release the sharp weapons I have prepared to defeat the enemy."

Then only the city gates were heard to "squeak", and then groups of black shadows passed through the city gates and stayed quietly at the entrance of the city gates. Song Bangren urged the red rabbit horse to sit down and walked to the black shadows, raising his head. Looking at the sky, he murmured, "I don't know if Tian Dan in later generations secretly learned my art of war. Forget it, I still don't know who secretly learned from whom! Anyway, Jiang Ziya is waiting to eat tonight A big loss!" After saying this, Song Bangren recited a mantra and blew into the sky. Suddenly, he saw a strong wind roaring out of thin air, blowing from Jiepaiguan to the Xiqi camp, but the wind only roared in the air, but was not there. The Jiepai Pass was fluttering, and then a fire suddenly appeared in front of the Jiepai Pass. Rows of fires connected into a sea of ​​fire. When I looked carefully, I saw a tail wagging in the light of the fire. Looking further ahead, it was a cow. , the readers who saw this must have known about Song Bang Renxing's strategy. Yes, it was the Fire Ox Formation that later showed its prowess and defeated Le Yi's army in one fell swoop.

A loud sound spread, and the fire cows rushed straight towards Xiqi Camp. Then the wind roared in the sky, and the fire ignited, and soon burned the Xiqi Yuan men. The cows in front danced, and the momentum was huge and destructive.

Coupled with the burning flames behind, the entire Xiqi camp instantly turned into a Shura territory. Song Bangren did not take action personally at this moment. After all, he knew that he could not take action at this moment, because once Song Bangren took action, he was afraid that the incompetence in Song Bangren's body would

Will float out and use his magic to rescue Xiqi's army...

Jiang Ziya was woken up by the earthquake in the middle of the night. When he walked out of the tent, he saw a burst of fire burning into the sky. For a moment, everything in his heart was filled with despair. Regret, fear, worry, shock, sadness and all kinds of emotions all rushed into his old head. Jiang Ziya's face turned pale, and then "poof"

There was a sound, and blood spurted from the mouth. Fortunately, Jin Zha and Muzha were nearby, and hurriedly supported Jiang Ziya, and then protected Jiang Ziya and left.

Nezha, Wei Hu, Lei Zhenzi, Mao Gongsui and others worked hard to suppress the Xiqi Luan army. Unfortunately, the Fire Ox Formation was too powerful and the Xiqi generals could not control the situation for a while, so they had to lead their respective suppressors.

The soldiers and horses living there retreated back. In this way, hundreds of miles of Xiqi Camp were reduced to ashes overnight. In the early morning of the next day, Jiang Ziya woke up and turned around and ordered his general to go forward to gather the scattered soldiers. After resting for three days, he finally calculated clearly.

More than 200,000 soldiers and horses were lost, and many generals were injured. Fortunately, Jiang Ziya's camp was properly arranged, and none of the generals died. Jiang Ziya looked at the mourning soldiers and generals in front of him and was silent for a long time.

"Uncle, now is not the time to feel depressed!" Nezha stood up and said, "Now that Senior Brother Yang Jian's whereabouts are unknown, our army has been attacked by the enemy at night, and this is the moment when our army's survival is at stake. If uncle, if he falls into depression at this time,

I’m afraid that our army will have no chance of survival anymore, so please cheer up, uncle, and quickly go to Kunlun to ask the leader to come and help, and at least we can save Xiqi’s army from death!”

"Yes, I almost fell into Song Bangren's plan!" Jiang Ziya was shocked when he heard this, and his eyes became firm, "I'm afraid Yang Jian's nephew has fallen into the enemy's hands. Song Bangren attacked our army at night but did not show up. It must be that he is not there."

In order to get out of the pass and fight, you should withdraw your troops and horses ten miles back. I will go to Kunlun to ask the master to come. The army is temporarily under the command of Su Hu. Nezha and Mao Gong will temporarily supervise the army. Jin Zha, Muzha,

Lei Zhenzi, Wei Hu and the other generals must be on guard day and night. I failed to be on guard and this is how I got into this disaster. You must not follow my path!" After saying this, Jiang Ziya took up the auspicious clouds and flew towards Kunlun.

"Since the commander-in-chief has entrusted me with the power of troops and horses, I cannot put you to death. I will order the army to retreat ten miles, and at the same time send scouts to Jiepaiguan to see if they can search for our skirmishers, and at the same time attack Jiepaiguan.

Conduct investigation and don’t lose your guard again!" Su Hu said loudly.

"The last general takes orders!" the generals responded loudly after hearing the words. So the Xiqi army was led by Su Hu, with Nezha and Lei Zhenzi as the rear army, Jin Zha and Mu Zha guarding the left and right, and Wei Hu supervising the middle army. Mao Gong then

, Wu Ji and others marched ahead and set up camp ten miles before Sishui Pass, waiting only for Jiang Ziya to return before embarking on the eastern expedition.
