Chapter 309: The Bad Guy Must Die
After Ning Xiang was defeated at the hands of Mei Ji in Liang County, he never replied to Guguan, because he accidentally learned one thing, that is, Dong Zhuo made a deal with Yan Xing, Yan Xing had to agree to marry Ning Xiang as his wife, but at the same time, he had to disguise himself as Gao Yi to go to Wancheng to make a big deal about Gao Yi's marriage.
And the final result Ning Xiang had long predicted, Yan Xing did not succeed, but it was true that Gao Yi's marriage was disturbed, and in the chaos, Hu Tu and Zhang Xiu and others sent by Dong Zhuo also took advantage of the chaos to kidnap Yuan Shu, Kong Rong, Han Fu and others.
Ning Xiang originally thought that Yan Xinghui would go directly to Hanguguan to ask Dong Zhuo for his guilt, but he didn't expect that Yan Xing would go straight to Jincheng and secretly meet with Ma Teng, Liang Xingcheng, Yinma and other old generals of Han Sui. Even if Ning Xiang was stupid, she knew that Yan Xing had other plans, she followed Yan Xing all the way and came to Jincheng, and Yan Xing knew that Ning Xiang was following him, but he still treated him as if he had nothing to do, Ning Xiang was really angry, so she revealed her identity.
"Since they are all just using each other, why do you have to talk about any feelings? Today I will kill you stuffy gourd, and let all your conspiracies turn into flowing water!"
Ning Xiang said, the long sword shook, and flew straight to Yan Xing's vital point, the bright purple dress, like a mess of flowers, dragging the ground and fragrant, it was really dazzling.
Yan Xing stared blankly at this purple shadow from afar, the cold sword was clear, and the murderous aura was awe-inspiring, countless thoughts flashed in his heart, but the whole person seemed to be fixed on horseback, and he didn't move.
With a "snort", Ning Xiang's sword slashed across Yan Xing's arm in this way, and suddenly a blood light splashed, and Yan Xing fell from the horse's back with a bang.
And his arm had been cut off by Ning Xiang's sword, and his five fingers were still trembling.
With a "dang long", the long sword stained with Yan Xing's blood in Ning Xiang's hand fell to the ground, and her whole body was paralyzed there, looking at Yan Xing in a pool of blood in a daze, and muttered in her mouth: "Stuffy gourd, you, why don't you hide?"
"Why are you hiding?" Yan Xing tried to stand up several times, but all failed, he sat helplessly on the ground, the pain from his right shoulder was heartbreaking, because of his vigorous exercise, the blood gushed out more, and his face quickly turned pale, like a terrifying and hideous ghost, but he still looked at Ning Xiang, looked at her fixedly, and said with a smile:
"Although I don't like Gao Yi very much, but he has a good saying, men would rather bleed themselves than let women shed tears, I took advantage of you and I was wrong, so I cut off this arm, it is enough to make amends to you, right? From now on, we don't owe each other? If you want to go and tell Dong Zhuo's people now, it's still too late, but I'm not going to accompany you!"
Yan Xing said as he tore off his robe and wrapped it around his shoulders, temporarily stopped the bleeding, and then slammed his strength, although he staggered for a moment, but he still barely stood up, walked to the side of his mount, pulled the reins of the horse, struggled to turn over, and struggled to clamp the horse's belly with his legs, the horse neighed, and seemed to feel Yan Xing's intentions, and his front hooves soared into the air, kicking the dust away.
Ning Xiang was overwhelmed by the scene in front of her, and she muttered alone, "Did I do something wrong?"
No, she didn't do anything wrong, it was Yan Xing who deceived her feelings, she just did what she should do, and those who deceived her would not die well, no matter who it was, including that Dong Zhuo, she did things for Dong Zhuo so wholeheartedly, but what was the result in the end? It seems that she is extremely fond of her, but it is just a pawn to use, Hua Xiong has now become a ghost or a ghost, is it that she Ning Xiang will become like that one day?
She doesn't want that, she wants to be herself again, no longer at the mercy of anyone! She wants to control her own destiny, not live for others!
And now, she is going to kill Dong Zhuo, the big villain, because the villain must die!
After thinking about this thought, Ning Xiang's face became calmer, she quietly picked up her own pickup from the ground, slowly wiped the blood stains on it with her sleeve, retracted it into the scabbard, and left here, her figure quickly disappeared into the distance.
"Woohoo!" night fell quickly, the wind was blowing, the chill was bone-chilling, the starlight was dim, and the cries of countless wild wolves came from the mountains in the distance, which made people sound creepy.
The soldiers defending the city lit torches, but they didn't shine far, and there were always thieves attacking here at night, so the city gates were closed early, and the guards on duty were divided into several teams to patrol back and forth on the tower, ready for any accidents.
Suddenly, the sound of galloping people and horses sounded in the distance, there were no less than a thousand people and horses, but it was strange that there were no torches, which couldn't help but make the Dong Zhuo soldiers defending the city curious.
A night march is more likely to cause chaos than a day march, especially a rapid march, and only an extremely well-trained army can march at night without torches, which only Xu Rong's troops in Dong Zhuo's army can do.
However, wasn't Xu Rong ordered to garrison Luoyang Yique Pass, which was at least 2,000 miles away at this time?
"There is a situation, everyone is ready for battle!" the guard shouted, and the archers pulled out their arrows and buckled their strings to gather at the battlements of the city wall, waiting for this group of men and horses of unknown origin.
"I'm rebelling against Captain Xu Rong, open the city gate quickly!" Under the city gate, a general rode a horse, wearing a helmet and armor, holding a spear, and several personal soldiers behind him also rode together, playing the Xu Zi banner.
The city guard was taken aback, he took a closer look, it was indeed Xu Rong's banner that was true, and the general was indeed the ordinary Xu Rong's attire, so he was about to order the city gate to be opened, but at this time, the deputy general whispered to him: "The general is slow, who doesn't know the name of General Xu Rong, how could he come here from Yique Pass for no reason?
The guard suddenly realized: "It makes sense, I almost missed a big thing, that's good, pass the order, don't let this person enter the customs, even if it's really General Xu Rong who is here, you can bring some more people to surround Han Sui's mansion, no matter who wants to go in, they will be killed!"
"No!"
After giving these words, the guard general lit a torch and shouted to the general under the city: "General Xu Rong forgive me, at this time, it is dark, the city gate has been ordered to close, and the general will not dare to open the city gate without the warrant of the captain!"
"Presumptuous! I have a warrant from the lord here, and I was ordered to take Han Sui out of the city, delaying the major event of the military aircraft, can you afford a small guard?"
No one thought that this person was really Xu Rong, Dong Zhuo was worried that Han Sui's old troops would come to rob Han Sui and make trouble again, so he secretly dispatched Xu Rong to bring a thousand men and horses to Jincheng to conceal his whereabouts, and took Han Sui to Hangu Pass.
But the city guards had already decided that this Xu Rong was pretending to be someone, so no matter what Xu Rong said, he refused to believe it, and ordered the soldiers: "Shoot the arrows and shoot this thief who dares to impersonate General Xu Rong!"
As his words fell, the archers who had been gathering momentum in the city for a long time also swished out the feathered arrows in their hands, and the arrow rain carried a little starlight, like a meteor dragging the ground, and went straight towards Xu Rong's location, forcing Xu Rong to retreat more than a hundred zhang before dodging over.
Xu Rong was so angry that he scolded: "Idiot, I actually shot at me Xu Rong, see if I don't break through the city gate, take your bones and scatter ashes!"
After that, Xu Rong was about to order the soldiers to prepare for the siege, but when he thought about it calmly, he only brought a thousand men and horses, and they were all cavalry, and he didn't bring any siege equipment, how could he capture the strong Jincheng?
But Xu Rong thought about it, Dong Zhuo asked him to walk day and night, he must have concealed his whereabouts to avoid being discovered by Han Sui's old subordinates, if he waited until dawn to act, he was afraid that even if he could enter the city and bring Han Sui out, he was afraid that he would leak the news and not be able to leave Liangzhou at all.
When he was in distress, the soldier suddenly came to report and said: "General Qiyu, a few miles west of Jincheng City, the whereabouts of a group of thousands of men and horses have been found, it seems to be the men and horses of Liang Xing, the old department of Han Sui!"
"Huh?" Xu Rong was taken aback when he heard this, it seems that he really gained something by coming at night, Liang Xing was Han Sui's most trusted subordinate, and after Han Sui was captured, he also led his troops to disappear, and now he appeared here, he must have wanted to rescue Han Sui.
"Let's go and find out how many men he has!" Xu Rong groaned for a moment and ordered the herald.
"No!"
Not long after the herald went, another probe horse Fei came from the east, and he said without hesitation: "The general is not good, a few miles east of Jincheng City, I found the three thousand men and horses of Han Sui's old general Cheng Yin!"
Xu Rong's eyes widened, but before he could speak, another herald came to Pegasus, and said to Xu Rong: "General, I just got the news that more than 3,000 people from Han Sui's old horse were found in the north of Jincheng City!"
"Hurry up and go to the nearby camp to inform the lieutenant, let him quickly bring everyone here, how did he become the lieutenant of Jincheng, nearly 10,000 people touched the outside of Jincheng City, and he didn't even notice it!"
As soon as he finished speaking, another cavalryman galloped in the distance, and before he could reach him, he fell from his horse, and everyone noticed that he was covered in wounds, and that he had an arrow in his back, and that blood was almost all the way.
Xu Rong recognized that this was the herald he had sent to the camp of the Jincheng Governor before, and now that he was injured like this, it seemed that something big must have happened.
"What's wrong, say!" Xu Rong asked in a deep voice.
"Du Wei was killed, by Ma Teng's people!" After the herald said this, he fell to the ground.
Xu Rong frowned: Ma Teng is also involved in this matter?
