    The troops led by Wang Qi have been stationed outside Mo Bao's military camp, waiting for news from Xiao Qingzhi on the front line.

    Three poles high in the sun, the soldiers are still waiting.

    It was almost noon, and the soldiers were eating dry food, but they still did not send troops.

    By the end of noon, and about to enter the noon hour, a sentinel rushed over.  When the sentry came back to report the news, he didn't take a small road and passed directly through Mo Bao's military camp.

    The sentinel came to the front of Wang Qi's army and reported: "Prime Minister, Captain Xiao has won the victory and annihilated the army led by Mo Bao. Not only did Mo Bao's army of more than 10,000 people lose, but also Mo Bao himself.  He has been executed. Lieutenant Xiao is handling the battlefield and will soon lead his army to join the Prime Minister."

    "Okay, okay, okay!"

    After Wang Qi heard this, he said three good words in a row.

    The face is full of approval.

    Xiao Qingzhi not only destroyed Mo Bao¡¯s army, but also killed Mo Bao as well.

    This is a great thing.

    Wang Qi waved his hand to ask the sentry to retreat, turned to look at Zhuge Feng, and said: "Brother, Mo Bao has been killed, although there are still nearly 20,000 elites in Mo Bao's camp."

    After a pause, Wang Qi continued: "If we fight, even if we can defeat the opponent, many people will escape and our people will be damaged. My idea is to recruit and surrender this army without spending a single soldier.  , take them all.¡±

    Zhuge Feng thought for a while and said: "The best way is indeed to surrender. You can wait for Xiao Qingzhi's army to return and block the retreat of these troops. It will not be too late to surrender."

    Wang Qi said: "Then let's do it."

    Wang Qi and Zhuge Feng decided on a strategy and further mobilized their troops, directly arraying themselves outside the camp of Mo Bao's army.

    No longer stationed far away.

    The army lined up and waited quietly.

    Now, in Mo Bao's army, the person in charge of military affairs is Xu Youdao, Mo Bao's deputy general.

    Xu Youdao is lean and capable of some martial arts, but he is not a real martial artist.  He was also from a prominent family in Xiapi.  Now Xu Youdao is in charge of the camp and is facing great pressure when he learns that Wang Qi is stationed outside the camp.

    When food and grass are robbed, the army will be short of food.

    According to Xu Youdao's opinion, the best way is to retreat immediately, withdraw from Langya Kingdom and return to Xiapi.  Although Mo Bao would be reprimanded by Chen Yan, he was able to stabilize the situation.

    But Mo Bao insisted on staying.

    Even when Mo Bao led troops to the rear to attack those who looted the grain roads, he did not agree with this approach at all and did not think it would be useful.

    But Mo Bao didn¡¯t listen.

    If Xu Youdao stayed behind, he had no choice but to admit it.  However, Xu Youdao had no news from Mo Bao from morning to noon, and he was very worried.

    On the one hand, I am worried that Wang Qi will attack the camp.

    On the other hand, he was worried that Mo Bao's action would fail.  Because Xu Youdao thought about it for himself and thought that Wang Qi blocked outside the camp but did not attack, maybe just to wait for the news of Mo Bao's defeat.

    Once the news of Mo Bao's defeat comes back, his army's morale will definitely be damaged.

    By then, it will be difficult to control the situation.

    Xu Youdao became increasingly suspicious, thinking that there might be an ambush behind him.

    Although Xu Youdao had doubts, there was nothing he could do.  Wang Qi's army is watching eagerly outside the camp, and Wang Qi's sentinels must be everywhere around.  Once he makes any rash move, he will be chased immediately.

    Once he escapes and Wang Qi pursues him, he will definitely be defeated.

    Xu Youdao can only hope that Mo Bao will be fine and hope that Mo Bao will not be ambushed.

    While Xu Youdao was waiting, the soldiers who went to inquire about the news withdrew first.  As soon as the sentinel entered the camp, he hurried to Xu Youdao's tent and reported: "General Xu, something bad happened. We are defeated. General Mo is defeated."

    Xu Youdao's heart suddenly sank.

    We lost in the end!

    The ending he least expected to see happened.

    Xu Youdao suppressed his impetuous mood, looked at the whistle and asked: "What's going on, where is General Mo?"

    The sentry said solemnly: "Our people watched from a distance and found someone who had escaped. After asking, they learned that General Mo was killed. What happened this time was that General Mo led his men to pursue him and arrived at Xiping in the rear.  Po, encountered an ambush and was attacked by fire from the other side. The army fell into a sea of ??fire, and the exits one after another were blocked by Wang Qi's people. Therefore, the army was defeated miserably."

    "well¡­¡­"

    Xu Youdao sighed, waved his hand and said: "I understand, go down."

      "Yes!"

    The soldier turned and retreated.

    Xu Youdao sat alone in his tent, frowning.  Under the current situation, he didn't know how to deal with it for the time being. Should he directly go to war with Wang Qi?

    ?Obviously not!

    The army lacks fighting spirit and abandons the advantages of the camp to start a war, which is self-destruction.

    If we don¡¯t start a war, we can¡¯t defend it.

    Retreat?

    As soon as he retreats, Wang Qi will pursue him again.

    Xu Youdao is now in a situation where he is unable to cope with the current situation.

    "That's all, let's take one step at a time."

    Xu Youdao really has no solution, so he can only endure it for the time being, regardless of the situation.  Time passed little by little, and suddenly, the rapid sound of war drums came from outside the camp.

    ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? Boom!  Boom!  !  !

    The drums rumbled and resounded continuously.

    The rapid drum sound is exciting and majestic, making people feel the pressure as if black clouds are pressing down on the city.

    Xu Youdao heard the sound of war drums and thought Wang Qi was going to attack. He stood up directly, went straight to the gate of the camp, and looked outside the camp.  At this moment, Wang Qi set up a formation outside the camp.

    Wang Qi, alone, stood in front of the formation on horseback.

    The reason why the war drums sounded was because Wang Qi received news from Xiao Qingzhi that the troops led by Xiao Qingzhi were now behind Xu Youdao's camp and blocking the road.

    Today, Xu Youdao is unable to advance or retreat, and is caught in a difficult situation.

    As soon as Xu Youdao arrived at the gate of the camp, soldiers came to report the news, saying that Wang Qi's army was behind and had cut off the retreat, making it impossible to retreat.

    At this moment, Xu Youdao sighed again.

    How helpless!

    Because of Mo Bao's insistence, the army was in trouble.  Mo Bao was relieved once he died, but he was in trouble now that he had control of the army.

    Wang Qi took a breath and shouted: "I, Wang Qi, who is in charge in the camp now?"

    Xu Youdao stood up and said: "I am Xu Youdao, and I am in charge of military affairs."

    He wanted to impersonate Mo Bao, but the problem was that Wang Qi's army had cut off his retreat. Wang Qi must have known about the killing of Mo Bao, so Xu Youdao directly revealed his identity.

    Wang Qi said: "Xu Youdao, Mo Bao led his army to the rear to stop my army that was robbing food. Instead of snatching the food back, he died. The 10,000 elite troops led by Mo Bao have also been wiped out. Xu Youdao, can you tell me this news?  Do you know?"

    "Know!"

    Xu Youdao nodded and answered.

    He had no expression on his face, but the soldiers around him and the gathered soldiers were all in an uproar.

    Mo Bao is dead!

    You know, Mo Bao is the commander-in-chief of the army.

    But he is dead.

    Xu Youdao sighed inwardly as he looked at the panicked expressions of the people around him.

    This is Wang Qi¡¯s purpose.

    With the help of Mo Bao's death, he disrupted the fighting spirit of the army and deliberately put pressure on the soldiers.  Of course, Xu Youdao couldn't stop such a thing at all, after all, Mo Bao was really killed.

    This is an irreversible situation.

    Xu Youdao continued: "Wang Qi, if you want to attack, just attack."

    Wang Qi said: "Xu Youdao, I'm not here to attack. Mo Bao has been killed, and Kong Si has become my prisoner. You don't have any food, so it's impossible to hold on."

    "Even if you plan to retreat, the road to the rear has been blocked by my army. It is impossible to break out and leave. Now you can only surrender."

    Wang Qi said loudly: "Mo Bao has been killed. I will only kill the chief culprit and not implicate the innocent. Surrender, I will not kill anyone."

    Xu Youdao was silent.

    He had to admit that Wang Qi¡¯s words made sense.  The situation described by Wang Qi is the current fact.

    Xu Youdao was silent for a moment and said: "Wang Qi, if we surrender and you slaughter us, wouldn't we become fish on your chopping board and let you slaughter us?"

    Wang Qi felt happy when he heard this.

    It¡¯s done.

    Xu Youdao would not say such words if he really wanted to resist.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
