    Chapter 634: Yongzhou Qingzhi Jiangbei Luotu Outside Yongzhou City, more than 1,600 Yongzhou soldiers were devoured by tigers, leopards and wolves driven by the He people. Not long ago, they had tasted the joy of victory and had just fought their way out.  They were full of pride, but in a blink of an eye, the fangs of the beast tore their bodies and souls into pieces.  This was a huge army of beasts whose number could not be counted. Xu Qingzhi, who had finally returned to Yongzhou City, walked straight to the city wall after entering the gate, and looked outside with his clairvoyance. At this time, his men and horses had been completely submerged, and even the flags could be seen.  Not here.  Amid the boiling beasts, one could vaguely see the mutilated corpses that were run up from time to time.  The corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and the hand holding the clairvoyant trembled.  At the very back of the beast army, there were at least two hundred elephants walking side by side. These elephants were like the commanders of the beast army, and the beasts were driven forward by them.  The He people sitting on the elephant with a horn hanging down are the brains of the commander.  "Decades ago" Luo Qiu, the governor of Pingshang Road who was standing next to Xu Qingzhi, sighed: "After the Southern Expedition Army of the Great Sui Dynasty defeated the Shang State army, they marched straight in and encountered an army of beasts controlled by the He people. That was the Great Sui Dynasty.  It was not the biggest loss since the army went south, but it was the most memorable one. At least 10,000 soldiers lost their lives Thirty years have passed, and I almost forgot that the He people still had such means. " Xu Qingzhi put down his clairvoyance and shook his head.  He shook his head: "But we don't have the troops now." As a general, he naturally knows that history very clearly.  At that time, the Southern Expeditionary Army of the Great Sui Dynasty, Lien Chan and Lien Jie, had great morale. After defeating the main force of the Shang Kingdom on the banks of the Yangtze River, they encountered little resistance.  Under such circumstances, the He people's beast army gave the Sui army a blow in the head.  At least 10,000 elite soldiers were devoured by wild beasts and suffered heavy losses.  Later, they relied on a large number of arrow arrays, rain of fire and powerful crossbows to disrupt the beast army, and then pushed the chariots dressed as monsters forward, scaring the beasts back again and again.  .  But in that war, more than 40,000 arrow formations were used, and more than 80,000 troops were invested.  They also built a large number of chariots and prepared for a full month before completely defeating the He people.  But now, the number of archers in Yongzhou City is barely more than 10,000, and their quality cannot be compared with that of the Great Sui Southern Expeditionary Army at that time.  Fortunately, now they defend the city while the He people attack it.  No matter how powerful the beast army is, it is impossible for them to climb the tall Yongzhou City.  "It's better not to go out to fight anymore." Although Luo Qiu didn't understand military affairs, he also knew that in the face of such a perverted army as the He people, the Yongzhou soldiers had no chance of winning.  At present, the total strength of Yongzhou soldiers is only more than 20,000, which is not too stretched to defend the city.  But once they leave the city to fight, these 20,000 people are meaningless.  "What I'm worried about is" Xu Qingzhi said with some sadness: "After being trapped for a long time, the morale of the soldiers will be low. Originally, this night attack out of the city and the victory came back, the soldiers' fighting spirit was stimulated. Unexpectedly,  The follow-up troops of the He people arrived so quickly that it was already too late by the time I tried to retreat. " He did not blame the soldiers for this defeat, but placed it on himself.  Although the main reason for this defeat was that the county soldiers were too slow to implement his general order.  Because the county soldiers were greedy for the possessions of He people, Xu Qingzhi urged the team several times before reluctantly gathering them.  But at this time, the soldiers were covered with trophies and their retreat was not fast.  Even so, Xu Qingzhi also knew that the fault still lay with himself.  Because the general should be more courageous at that time, and immediately punish the soldiers who do not carry out military orders, so that others will not delay in the same way.  Besidesthe soldiers had already died in the battle, how could he bear to put the blame on the dead?  ¡°Moreover, it was a group of dead people who didn¡¯t even leave their corpses behind.  "Wait for reinforcements." Luo Qiu was silent for a while and said: "The flying pigeons from the north sent a message. The generals of the Black Flag Army have arrived at Nanhui Road with tens of thousands of fine cavalry. It is estimated that it will take another half a month at the earliest.  It¡¯s time to go to Yongzhou. The cavalry he brought are most suitable for fighting outside the city. No matter how powerful and barbaric the He people are outside, we don¡¯t need to worry about it anymore.¡± Xu Qingzhi was stunned for a moment and said nothing.  He understood what Luo Qiu meant. The cavalry brought by Fang Jie must not be used to defend the city.  Fang Jie did not bring infantry, which means that he had no intention of holding on to Yongzhou.  But with tens of thousands of beasts outside, what use would the cavalry have, no matter how elite they are?  In front of those ferocious beasts, the war horses can only tremble!  "There's something" &nbspLuo Qiu hesitated for a while and then said: "I have always wanted to discuss it with you, but I didn't know how to open the door Originally, I was very relieved to leave the responsibility of guarding Yongzhou City to you. After all, you are an old man who has been with me for many years.  , I also know your abilities well. After you led the army, you worked conscientiously and never made any mistakes, which made me feel more at ease" "I understand" Xu Qingzhi's face changed slightly, and then he smiled a little.  Bitter: "After General Fang arrives, I will hand over the command. Yongzhou is the most important thing, and a lowly position is not for someone who is ignorant." Luo Qiu's face lit up, patted him on the shoulder and said: "A gentleman is a great leader, I value the most.  That's what you do. But don't worry, no matter what the final result is, it will still be yours, understand?" Xu Qingzhi hummed, and no one saw the veins on the back of his clenched fists.  ¡­¡­ ¡­¡­ Jiangbei Province Firefox City The imperial army has lost seven games in a row. The young butcher Luo Xiaotu leads the Yong army to attack fiercely every day. The generals in the imperial army are unstoppable. This man is cold and unruly, but he has real talent.  He is very skilled in martial arts and has outstanding martial arts skills. On the battlefield, he turns into a ferocious beast, making his enemies fearful.  A while ago, Luo Yao handed over the command of the army to him, and then went to Pangba Camp alone.  Luo Xiaotu knew what Luo Yao had done, and now only he and the mysterious General Mo in the entire Yong army knew about Luo Yao's cultivation.  Just before Luo Yao left the camp, Luo Xiaotu only thought that King Yong was a ninth-grade ultimate warrior who was invulnerable, but that was all.  He did not expect that King Yong Luo Yao's cultivation level had reached a height that he could not see.  That day, Luo Yao just used a few random tricks to shock him.  It was also at that time that he realized how naive he had been to think that he was very close to Luo Yao.  Luo Yao isolated himself on the day when Wan Xingchen slashed seven hundred miles, so the people in the camp didn't know what happened and thought the light was some strange sign.  But just because Luo Yao showed his strength, he knew that Luo Yao would really use him seriously.  In the past few days, he has led his army to continuously put pressure on the imperial troops, and has forced the imperial army to the north of Fire Fox City.  Xu Xiaogong and Liu Enjing, two battle-hardened generals in the imperial court, were actually at a disadvantage.  Early in the morning, Luo Xiaotu came out of the camp with a hundred soldiers and headed directly towards the Sui army's camp.  He did not inform the other generals, and few others could match his courage.  When several other generals found out, he had already led his people through the ruins of Firefox City.  The two armies are about twenty miles apart. To the north of Firefox City is a vast plain with no danger to rely on. Because there is a ruins in the middle, the scouts sent by Luo Xiaotu were ambushed by Sui army masters who were ambushing in the ruins of Firefox City.  We don't know much about the situation of the Sui army.  The group of people did not choose to avoid the ruins of Fire Fox City, but broke in directly.  Luo Xiaotu knew that there must be many masters ambushing these ruins, but he didn't care.  Not long after entering the ruins, a cold arrow shot out from the darkness and headed straight for Luo Xiaotu's face. Luo Xiaotu waited until the arrow was almost in front of him before raising his hand to catch it, and then threw it back to kill the ambush.  The Sui army scout was shot to death. His body fell from a broken wall and was covered in dust.  All the way north through the ruins, Luo Xiaotu killed at least more than twenty Sui army scouts with good martial arts skills, including a seventh-grade practitioner or above.  After passing through the ruins, Luo Xiaotu accelerated his horse and arrived directly a few hundred meters away from the Sui army's camp without avoiding it. He reined in his horse and raised his clairvoyance to check the layout of the Sui army's camp.  With a buzzing sound, a giant crossbow shot out from the camp, striking a place less than two meters away from Luo Xiaotu, causing the agitated gravel to fly high.  The horses of the soldiers behind Luo Xiaotu were frightened and jumped, but Luo Xiaotu didn't even move, still observing carefully with his clairvoyance.  This move angered the people in the Sui Army's camp. About ten minutes later, a group of about seven or eight hundred cavalrymen rushed out of the Sui Army's camp and headed straight for Luo Xiaotu.  The Sui army thought that the hundred and ten men of the Yong army would withdraw immediately, but who would have thought that Luo Xiaotu slowly put down his clairvoyance and took off the big stick from the victory hook.  "Kill some people and then leave." He said lightly, and then urged his horse to rush forward.  His soldiers all knew the general's temper and followed Luo Xiaotu forward to kill him without even trying to persuade him.  Facing an enemy seven or eight times their size, they showed no fear at all.  What happened next made the people in the Sui army camp frightened and angry.  The Yong army of one hundred and ten men followed the general in silver armor. They cut open the Sui cavalry with one charge, grabbed their horses and killed them again. Seven or eight hundredThere were less than half of the Sui army left.  The remaining cavalry did not dare to fight, so they turned around and retreated.  Luo Xiaotu hung up the big tree, snorted with disdain from his nose, then raised his clairvoyance to observe again, but he had no plans to evacuate yet.  Not long after, there was another chaos in the Sui army's camp, followed by a general who rushed over with more than a thousand cavalry. Luo Xiaotu once again picked up a straw to meet the enemy, and stabbed the Sui general to death with one blow. The Sui army's cavalry fled.  .  "Let's go" After killing the Sui army twice, Luo Xiaotu seemed to be slightly satisfied.  He was about to leave with his men, but another team of about 2,000 people rushed out of the Sui army's camp, seemingly to pursue them.  Luo Xiaotu cursed a bunch of flies in a low voice and turned his horse back to kill again. He was covered in blood all the way, and the Sui army was defeated again without exception.  After killing the Sui army for the third time, Luo Xiaotu picked up a long stick from the ground and threw it towards the Sui army's camp. With this throw, the long stick flew straight forward for a full foot.  Three hundred meters away, there was a precise bang on the flagpole of the Sui army's flag. If the flagpole hadn't been thick and strong enough, the battle flag would have been cut off at this moment.  "After the Shang Dynasty was destroyed, the Sui army could no longer choose anyone who knew how to fight." Luo Xiaotu was a little disappointed and turned around.  Xu Xiaogong, who had just arrived after hearing the news, looked at the young man's retreating back and couldn't help but cursed wildly.  He was about to order his warriors to pursue him, but was stopped by Liu Enjing.  "Don't chase. That person came straight through the ruins of Fire Fox City, which means that all the scouts we arranged in the ruins have been pulled out. If we lead the troops and chase him out rashly, there is no guarantee that he will not be ambushed. It is impossible to say At this time  The ruins of Fire Fox City are already full of rebels." Xu Xiaogong stomped his feet, extremely angry.  Outside the city, Luo Xiaotu, who was walking back slowly as if riding a horse, shook his head slightly and seemed even more disappointed.  "General, how did you guess that the Sui army did not dare to pursue anymore?" Luo Xiaotu was silent for a while, and only answered with two words: "Afraid of death." "When father comes back, I might ask him if he can change his position."  Name." He murmured.  The soldier was surprised and asked: "What name does the general want to change?" "Remove the small characters and change the name to Luo Tu." He said.
