After Dugu Hong's army ran out of food, they rested in the military camp, only sending a few soldiers to patrol and stand guard. Although it was autumn, the "autumn tiger" was still astonishingly hot. The soldiers had eaten their meals, were hot and tired, and were dozing off in their tents. The patrolling soldiers were complaining about the hard work while taking the opportunity to slack off.
Very soon, the camp became silent. Only the sound of the wind could be heard.
Just at this time, the Southern Marsh Army troops that had been lying in ambush for a long time appeared from around the camp, and slowly sneaked over, taking advantage of the enemy being careless, they advanced and killed all of the enemies on duty. Dugu Hong heard the chaos outside and quickly went out to fight, waving his spear, killing several soldiers. The soldiers of the Southern Marsh Country were fighting with Dugu Hong's army.
Dugu Hong saw that the situation was not looking good and hastily called for everyone to retreat. "Quickly retreat." Seeing that the military camp where the grains were stored was set on fire, he knew that the situation was not looking good. He called out to everyone, "Everyone retreat first."
Seeing that they had succeeded, the soldiers who were stealing the camps no longer bothered with the battle and retreated.
Dugu Hong had also led his army out of the military camp. He didn't expect to see Fang Zinan's army of the Southern Marsh Army waiting for them on the mountain path that led to Eastwood City as soon as he left.
Dugu Hong drew in a breath of cold air and asked, "You're Fang Zinan?"
Fang Zinan waved the sword in his hand and said loudly, "Dugu Hong, you've fallen into his trap!"
Dugu Hong was furious, "Fang Zinan, so you tricked me into falling for it?"
"You know it too late." Fang Zinan sneered.
Dugu Hong yelled in anger, "Charge!"
The soldiers shouted and rushed forward, but Fang Zinan remained calm. He waited until the enemy army drew near before waving his hand. Two rows of soldiers immediately stood out from the line, armed with bows and arrows. They aimed at Dugu Hong's army and began to shoot. Many soldiers were killed by the arrows while others were injured. Dugu Hong's army was thrown into a mess as the soldiers in the front row fell to the ground one by one.
Fang Zinan then shouted, "Charge!" He personally led the soldiers to charge forward.
Although they did not have the help of Xiao Tian Yuan, the soldiers all knew that Xiao Tian Yuan had defeated Li Qiming's army. Their morale was high and they fought with all their might. Although Dugu Hong's martial arts were quite good, it was a pity that he couldn't reverse the situation by himself. Soon, Fang Zinan arrived at the front and started to fight with Dugu Hong.
Although Dugu Hong was caught in the trap, but seeing that Fang Zinan was weak and delicate, he did not put Fang Zinan in his eyes at all. He mocked: "Fang Zinan, do you know how to use your sword? Seeing how thin you are, why don't you go home and accompany your wife, hahahaha! "
He was very clear on the feeling his weakness brought to others. He had suffered these blows since he was young, not only from outsiders, but also from his own brothers. That was why he was angry. Even when he was angry, Hou Hou only pursed his lips. Although he could not suppress the anger in his eyes, his eyes were instead brighter and clearer, as if he was happy.
"Why aren't you convinced!" Dugu Hong said with a provocative tone.
He didn't expect Fang Zinan to be able to stab him without saying a word … His sword technique had always walked the path of lightness. This thrust was like a sword picking up willow leaves, weak and powerless. It was as if he did not have the strength to use it at all.
Dugu Hong laughed loudly, "Fang Zinan, haven't you eaten? Your mother wants you to go home and eat dinner! "
When the tip of the sword was right in front of Dugu Hong, his sword technique suddenly changed. It was as fast as lightning, and the sound was like thunder, if it wasn't for Dugu Hong's reaction speed, the sword would have sliced off his nose, causing him to be embarrassed and annoyed.
The spear was a long weapon, and the sword in Fang Zinan's hand was not as long as the spear, so he had no choice but to retreat. Dugu Hong saw that he had succeeded in one move and thrusted out with his spear. The power of this spear did not lose out to Xiao Tian Yuan's spear skills. Fang Zi Nan knew that he could not let his guard down. He shouted loudly and swung his sword at the spear shaft. To be exact, he chopped at the hand holding the spear shaft.
Dugu Hong quickly retreated, and Fang Zinan's sword chased after him, as if he was unwilling to cut off Dugu Hong's finger. He chased fast, and Dugu Hong retreated fast as well. However, the tip of the sword never left Dugu Hong's finger, and the more he chased, the more anxious he became. He wanted to lower Dugu Hong's spirit.
Dugu Hong turned pale with fright and began to counterattack. His martial arts were not bad, but he underestimated his opponent too much, allowing Fang Zinan to gain the upper hand. As a result, he did not forget to attack even as he was retreating. Fang Zinan's sword thrust out again. This time, it didn't cut diagonally, but directly. The sword went straight into the heart of the pole, the spear split into two, the shaft was destroyed, the hand holding the spear easily became the finger, the middle finger bent, and hit Fang Zinan's chest!
"Something suddenly appeared in Fang Zinan's chest, and he struck the sword with his finger." "Pa!" His middle finger knocked against the sword. With a "wow" sound, Fang Zinan spat out a mouthful of blood towards the sky and then kicked the spear out of Dugu Hong's hand.
Fang Zinan held a sword in his right hand, but his left wrist trembled as his five fingers grabbed onto Dugu Hong's middle finger. In order to protect himself, Dugu Hong had no choice but to use all of his strength to attack. Before his middle finger could be retracted, he had no choice but to withdraw it with all of his strength.
However, the speed with which Dugu Hong reacted to the attack was beyond Fang Zinan's imagination. He took a big step back and snatched a gun from the soldier's hand. He then pierced through the air and blocked Fang Zinan's attack. But his middle finger was broken, and he was furious, and he fired a volley of rapid fire at the enemy, forcing Fang Zinan to step back. He was in a good mood, but the wound on his left middle finger caused him a sharp pain, and his grip on the spear became unsteady, and he could not help but feel a pang of anger. Just as he was about to vent his anger, he saw Fang Zinan's sword coming at him again. He knew that the words he said just now had worked, that was why Fang Zinan didn't care about anything and tried to intimidate him, then looked at Fang Ziqing's pretty face, and his beautiful lips, which were even more delicate than a woman's face. As he retorted, he continued to tease: "I heard that you are the Prince Rong of the Southern Marsh Country.
Fang Zinan was so angry that his lips were white. He forcefully suppressed his anger and chased after Hu Guhong with the sword in his hand.
At this point, Dugu Hong's men had been severely injured. One of the deputy generals beside him reminded him, "General, don't keep fighting. It's better if we run away first."
Dugu Hong recalled his mission and knew that he could not continue to fight. He then ordered his army, "Retreat!" However, how could Fang Zinan allow him to escape so easily? He had always been on the opposing side, and moreover, he had been rude. The sword in his hand danced so tightly that it made him unable to attack.
He thought that Fang Zinan had never fought in a war with his men, but it was just a false reputation. He never thought that after this fight, he would not gain even the slightest bit of advantage and instead give Fang Zinan a middle finger. Now, even the helmet was taken off by him, causing him to be quite shocked.
He looked at Fang Zinan's sword suddenly thrusting out again, and it was even aimed at his vitals. He was really scared and had no intention of defending. He just feigned weakness and turned around to leave.
Normally, he would chase after Dugu Hong and tear him into pieces, but he couldn't do that now. He couldn't take the lives of so many people as a joke, so he could only raise his sword, "Don't chase!"
