Chapter 249: Fighting in the Dead of Night

Taurus Road, in front of the Bashu camp.

The night was dark, but the 25,000 soldiers and horses were sleepless, holding cold halberds and lined up in the south.

With a beard, Chen He, who usually looks like a big grin, has a frosty face at the moment, holding a long sword in both hands, facing the north, and his eyes are hollow and he doesn't know where to look.

The bearded man beside him closed his eyes and frowned, and his heroic and wise spirit in the past were also suppressed by melancholy, it was Tang Li after Tang Ju.

"Of the four Zuo Simas back then, I'm afraid there are only two of you and me left..."Chen He opened his mouth and sighed.

"Four? Is Cao Wuxian also counted? Tang Li smiled bitterly.

"Cao Wuxian at least died at the hands of Qin Jun, but Kong Yi was..."Chen He stopped talking again.

"Commander Chen doesn't have to blame himself, and he didn't do his best to stop Commander Kong at that time." Tang Li exhaled a cold breath, "Actually, at that time, you and I both hoped that Commander Kong would succeed, and that would save a lot of effort." ”

"You and I both know that this matter will not be done, and Kong Yu will definitely die. But let him go. Chen He smiled bitterly, "That guy is clearly Confucius, but he is reckless." ”

Tang Li listened a little sadly, "If he is not reckless, he will not go from Qi to Wei and do martial arts with tattoos." ”

"Hahaha..."Chen He shook his head with a wry smile, "That guy said at the time that he just wanted to see Confucius in Mangdang Mountain travel around the rain cliffs of the world, and he was afraid that he would not be able to live in the mountains of Bashu..."

The two of them suddenly fell silent in unison, looking at the Sword Pavilion in the north.

After a while, Chen He suddenly smiled evilly, "Lu Pheasant sent us to garrison here, with the king as a threat, and we are sure that we will not let the Qin army aisle." But I don't know that in Lao Tzu's heart, Kong Yi is a brother, and if a brother dies, Lao Tzu will not make the Lu family happy! ”

Chen Heluo's beard moved, his eyes were full of fierce light, and he lived like a demon king of the mixed world.

"Does Commander Chen want to let Li Xin in?!" Tang Li frowned.

"That's not all! Lao Tzu still wants to help Qin Kanglu! Chen He gritted his teeth fiercely and said, "The Qin army has already come in, but there are too few soldiers and horses, and they are not Guo Ting's opponents." With Lao Tzu, it's different! ”

"Commander Chen can't come nonsense, if this is the case, you and I will forever leave the infamy of betraying the country! When the Qin army enters Bashu, the king will not have a good time..."Tang Li said urgently.

"I can't care so much! Kong Wei died in Micang Road, and Guo Meng will think that Kong Wei is acquiesced by you and me! Chen He's face was a little distorted, "When you and I die, and the Bashu soldiers are all under the command of Guo Meng, it is better to let these soldiers and horses kill each other!" ”

Everything in the Taurus Dao army is decided by Kong Li, Chen He, Kong Li is dead, although Tang Li doesn't want to, he can't compete with Chen He.

"If Commander Tang doesn't agree, he can immediately go to Zitong and report it to Guo Ting at this moment, otherwise! With such infamy, Commander Tang must bear it with his subordinates! Chen He said excitedly.

Three years ago, the three of them were in Mangdang Mountain, and Tang Li couldn't sell his friends to seek glory.

"When does Commander Chen plan to move his troops?" Tang Li asked.

Before the words fell, clusters of firelight rushed from the southwest.

"Southwest, Zitong, Guoting?!" Tang Li couldn't understand why Guo Ting sent troops.

"When the commander still wanted to stay until the end of the year, he didn't expect Guo Ting to make the first move. That's it! Chen He shouted, "All the soldiers listen to the order!" Zitong's guard Guo Tingli communicated with foreign enemies, killed us tonight, and let the Qin army enter Bashu! While Guo Ting was still on the way, the army met and killed him! ”

"Maybe Commander Guo has something important to discuss, and it's not too late to discuss it when Commander Guo arrives."

"Is Commander Guo trying to kill each other?"

The Bashu army wavered slightly, and they were also aware of the two forces in the court, and they did not know whether Chen He's words were true or an excuse to start civil strife.

"All the soldiers, please look at the number of torches, Guo Ting is afraid that he has brought no less than 30,000 people! The army has arrived in the middle of the night, if Guo Ting says that it is not a rebellion, it is a change of guard, do you believe it? Chen He asked.

Tang Li stepped forward and said, "Some time ago, it was rumored that the Qin army had gone around to Bashu, and Guo Ting did not defend the city or go west, but came here, and you soldiers still don't know what they mean?!" Guo Ting is the opposite, this is for the Qin army to come! ”

As soon as the two of them spoke, the soldiers of Bashu suddenly "woke up".

"The archers flanked the arrows, and the rest of the soldiers waited for Guo Ting's army to approach and rush forward, and the commander who killed Guo Ting would definitely ask the queen to be promoted to commander!" Chen He roared.

"No!!"

The light of the fire gradually moved, from the size of a star to a thumb-shaped.

"Shoot your arrows to meet the enemy!"

Chen He roared and rushed forward with a long knife, followed by Tang Li.

The arrows rained all over the sky, the killing sound was thunderous, Guo Ting's front army was beaten helplessly, and there were many casualties, Guo Ting hid in the Chinese army and was lucky not to be shot.

"That kid is right, Chen He is really the opposite!" Guo Ting looked at Chen He who was rushing straight forward, glared and scolded angrily, "The archers pressed the formation, and the whole army rushed to kill and cut off Chen He Tang Li's head!" ”

The Bashu soldiers who came out of the same line faced each other, and the few poor cavalry and infantry were instantly killed in the dark.

Li Xin in the Sword Pavilion heard the earth-shattering sound of killing, and took the opportunity to rush out of the Golden Bull Road.

Li Xin thought that the Bashu army was making a show, so he was drawn out, but he looked at the two sides of the halberd and the halberd, and opened his mouth and didn't know what to say.

"Hahaha... Commander Chen He really kept his promise! Zhang Er clenched his fists and laughed.

"It seems that the Bashu army on the southwest side came to attack first, I'm afraid this matter is not so simple." Li Xin thought about it and said.

During the wartime, there was civil strife, just because of Zhang Er's words, Li Xin did not believe it.

"Commander Li quickly go and help Commander Chen He! His forces are still too small. Zhang Er reminded.

"The battle clothes of the two sides are the same, can King Changshan tell which people are led by Chen He?" Li Xin asked.

"This..."

Zhang Er squinted and watched the battle situation, just now the two sides were still fighting well, but now it has really reached the point of indiscriminate fighting.

In addition to being able to distinguish between the leader and the archer, the other Bashu soldiers only cared about killing the enemy in front of them.

Guo Ting, who was originally superior in numbers, inexplicably became the same as Chen He's troops...

"Wait until they are both defeated, and then our army will rush over." Li Xin said.

"But the other party will definitely have reinforcements coming, so it's not a way to go on like this!" Zhang Er said urgently.

"There's no hurry... Madame's soldiers and horses have not moved, so it is not appropriate for us to move first. Li Xin shook his head, always feeling that the rare things in front of him must be the handiwork of Ziying.

"It's... All right! Zhang Er sighed, silently blaming himself in his heart for his dishonesty to Chen He.

Li Xin frowned slightly and muttered, "Where should the king be at this time?" ”

"Isn't King Qin in Hanzhong County?"

"This commander always feels that the king has already arrived in Bashu first..."

In the head of Zitong City, the arrow on Ziying's abdomen was bandaged by the Bashu soldiers, and after drinking the hot porridge, he was half-asleep and thought about secretly leaving Zitong's strategy.

"Two brothers, you don't need to take care of it, go down and rest." The child said weakly.

"Alas!" One of the Bashu soldiers lowered his head and sighed, "Your arrow is considered to be for us, and we will never let you have an accident!" ”

"It's okay, it's just a matter of raising your hands." Ziying smiled, "If you don't go to the battlefield to fight, what else is there to worry about." ”

"Don't think that Commander Guo Ting's appreciation is safe, Commander Guo is very suspicious, and it is better to be in the military formation under his account." Another Bashu soldier reminded, "Also, the person who wanted to kill you just now is not our Bashu people, who can say something in Commander Guo's ear." He can't get used to you, and you won't have a good time in the future. ”

"Oh? So what's his name? Ziying became interested, opened her eyes and asked.

The man pondered for a moment, "It seems that the surname is Liu, or Lou... Anyway, that's the sound. ”

The Bashu soldiers couldn't remember their names, and Ziying couldn't remember who they were.

"If you don't sleep, you'll have to sleep next."

The child pretended to snore a few times when he was not long.

The two Bashu soldiers were tired from the march, and they were led to sleepiness, and they lay down beside Ziying and gradually fell asleep.

"Dude? Brothers? ”

Ziying shook the two gently, saw that there was no movement, and endured abdominal pain and crawled out of the city tower.

"Brothers, quickly open the city gate, Chen He is treacherous, and he needs to go up to the front to assist Commander Guo!" Ziying shouted to the soldiers defending the city.

"You're going to go like this? What a sign of faith! ”

"Alas, then Lou Jing still wants to kill you, even if he is blind."

The soldiers defending the city sighed.

Ziying's face was even paler than just now.

"That person's name is Lou Jing?!"

Lou Jing's initial record was still in the fifth year of the Han Dynasty, and he was originally arranged to go to the border of Longxi, relying on his wisdom to ask Liu Bang, a fellow villager, a commander of the forbidden army surnamed Yu, to meet Liu Bang. The first thing he did when he saw Liu Bang in Luoyang was to advise Liu Bang to set the capital in Guannei.

At that time, the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty said that the Dingdu Guannei could only die twice, and the Dingdu Central Plains could be like the Zhou Dynasty for a hundred years. Although in the end, it was Zhang Liang who helped Liu Bang make up his mind to build the capital Guannei, Liu Bang was grateful to Lou Jing and gave him the name "Liu Jing".

Later, Han Wangxin defected to the Xiongnu, Lou Jing persuaded Liu Bang not to start a war with the Xiongnu, Liu Bang did not listen, resulting in the "Siege of Baideng", and Lou Jing and Chen Ping advocated peace together.

Lou Jing doesn't have many strategies, but everything is a major national event.

"The person who is my enemy is Lou Jing?!"

"It's good to know, don't offend him. If it weren't for Guo Ting's suspiciousness, Lou Jing would have been reused by him a long time ago. You can only be counted as the second in the army. The defender of the city reminded.

"Thank you brother for reminding me, I will understand..."

Ziying was faintly uneasy in her heart, borrowed a horse, rushed out of the city gate to the north, and informed Zhao Ji that it was a big deal to capture the empty Zitong first.

Ziying kept patting the horse's buttocks, and suddenly a rope appeared in front of him, and the horse was too fast to stop in time.

The front hooves of the fast horse were tripped up, and Rao is child reacted too quickly, jumped down at the moment when the horse fell, rolled a few times, and stopped his body.

"You didn't go to Wuyang, Baoning?!" Ziying asked, holding her belly and looking at the thick tree tied to the rope.

"It's not me, it's us!" The "Bashu soldiers" walked out from behind the tree, followed by the eight Bashu soldiers.

Ziying clutched her stomach and got up, "You... Is it Lou Jing?! ”

"It's not bad, you can also find out the name of the road. You're a pretty good traitor. Lou Jing was not surprised, re-lit the torch and smiled, "But your cleverness ends here." If we can intercept you here, you will be convicted of collaborating with the enemy. ”

"Why bother?" Ziying joked, "I collaborated with the enemy, and you also disobeyed Guo Ting's military orders." Why don't you just act like nothing happened tonight? ”

"Humph! If you die, you will not disobey military orders! Lou Jing sneered and waved his hand, "Kill him!" ”

Eight Bashu soldiers drew their swords and stepped forward, but Ziying lost too much blood twice, so he couldn't make the strength and could only retreat step by step.

With a slash of the sword, Ziying dodged and dodged, and the branches behind him were cut off instantly.

Ziying grabbed the branch upside down, aimed the sharpened end at the eight people, and gently bent down to pose as a sword of the Yue people.

"Hahaha..."Ziying pretended not to panic and said with a smile, "Since you are looking for death, let you see the power of the Yue Ren Sword!" ”

Ziying took advantage of the stunned few people and tried his best to pick up the sword in the hand of one person.

"If you don't want to die, get out of here! When the Qin army attacked, he could let Ziying not kill you! ”

The Bashu soldiers had heard of the power of the Yue Ren Sword, and they were vigilant and slowly retreated.

"Afraid of what? He has run out of oil, and what is there to be afraid of holding a branch and wounding a person?! Lou Jing shouted when he saw this.

"Up!!"

The Bashu soldiers gritted their teeth and swung their swords to slash at Ziying.

"Are you really not afraid of death?" Ziying retreated, threw the branch in his hand, and shot down Lou Jing's torch.

The torch fell to the ground and went out, the night was moonless, and the vision of several people was dark, but Ziying could see the outline of several people.

"Lao Tzu is here, let's kill it quickly!" Ziying shouted.

The eight of them followed the sound and swung their swords into the air.

"That's all I can do, I'm going to kill you!"

The eight people who couldn't see things were already nervous, and when they heard this, they were even more confused, and they vigorously slashed around.

"Ahh

The Bashu soldiers slashed each other and fell to the ground wailing, but Ziying was silent, and several people were extremely nervous, standing in place and not daring to move.

Ziying picked up the long sword and took the opportunity to stab eight people to death one by one.

"A bunch of idiots! Don't cut it! ”

Lou Jing shouted, smeared and re-lit the torch, his eyes widened, and all the eight people just now fell in a pool of blood, except for Ziying.

"You... It's too hasty, they should all be asked to bring torches..."A voice came from behind Lou Jing.

Lou Jing didn't dare to gasp, and the sword that was slowly dripping blood was already across his neck.

"You... You... What benefits does the baby give you? Let you betray Bashu?! Lou Jinghou shrank his neck and said sharply.

"The benefits? Hehe... It's hard to say, because... A widow is a child! ”

Lou Jing's eyes were wide open, speechless, the monarch of the Qin State risked death to come in?!

Not to mention that after climbing over a dangerous mountain, I was almost cut off my head when I was in Zitong...

"Heh, I didn't expect that Qin Jun would also learn from King Zhao Wuling and take risks alone." Lou Jing smiled bitterly, "If you lose in the hands of people like you, you won't lose in the next place." If you want to kill, kill it! ”

"If Guo Ting had listened to you, the widow would have died in Zitong City a long time ago. A scheming man like you is reluctant to kill anyone. Ziying smiled.

"Don't waste your mind in vain, Ziying will not sell the lord for glory in the future!" Lou Jing grimaced.

"Lord? I don't know who your lord is, Liu Bang or Lu Pheasant? Ziying pondered, "The widow guessed that it should be Liu Bang, otherwise Guo Ting, who has a heart for Lu Ze, will reuse you." ”

"Si Chen is just for a while, the king will purge his relatives!" Lou Jing shouted unconvinced.

Ziying shook her head and smiled, "If you were another relative, the widow would still believe it, you also underestimated Lu Ze and Lu Pheasant, right?" ”

Lu Ze led the troops to fight invincible. When Liu Bang was alive, Lu Pheasant could endure Mrs. Qi's arrogance, and when Liu Bang died, Liu Ruyi was poisoned, and Mrs. Qi was made a man.

Playing scheming or fighting, the Lu clan is not afraid of anyone.

"Your Excellency has never considered going to Qindi to help the widows? The widow is now lightly endowed and benevolent to the people, and it is no longer the Great Qin of the First Emperor's period. Ziying explained, "Lu Pheasant's attack on Linjiang is most likely to succeed, and Liu Bang will not survive." ”

Lou Jing was a little disappointed, "The Qin State has regained the two places of Yongsai, and he can regain his rank among the powerful countries one day, why do you need to help?!" ”

"The land of Bashu is also the target of the widows, and you still need your help to capture Bashu." Ziying said sincerely.

"Hahaha...!"

Lou Jing leaned over and laughed, Ziying hurriedly withdrew the long sword, but there was still a bloody mark on Lou Jing's face.

"What are you laughing at?" Ziying frowned.

"It's still too simple to laugh at what King Qin thinks. If King Qin knew what he had done, he would not have persuaded him so hard. Lou Jing turned around and smiled at Ziying, "I disobeyed the military order, didn't go to Baoning, Wuyang transferred troops, but quietly sent people to other places... Does King Qin know where it is? ”

Ziying clenched his sword, "Could it be... Hit?! ”

"Hahaha... That's right. Lou Jing said with a smile, "Wuyang, the defenders of Baoning are not more than 10,000, even if they come here, it is tiring to travel and travel, the Qin army can easily break it, if the king of Qin uses treacherous tricks, he can also let them surrender to the Qin army, but it is not conducive to Bashu." On the west side, Jiang Youshu was also deceived by the King of Qin's emptiness and abnormality, and only the commander of the insect could go south to defend Chengdu! ”

"Good scheme..."

Ziying sighed unconsciously, "If you are an ordinary person, when you reach such a point, you can't think that Bashu is hopeless." If the defenders of Huzhong return to defense in time and stalemate with the Qin army, the soldiers and horses in Bashu will be anxious again, and the situation will be undecided. dragged until Lu Ze and his party returned, and I don't know when this battle will last. ”

"Now that King Qin knows, do you still want to recruit him?" Lou Jing smiled slightly.

Ziying was unwavering, "Your Excellency's plans are far-reaching, why don't you want to?" ”

Lou Jing was slightly stunned, and suddenly pulled out his long sword and stabbed at Ziying. Suddenly, the quilt was dodged by Ziying, and Lou Jing put his backhand long sword on his neck.

"Your Excellency is talented, and you are still young, so you can't stop here!"

Ziying stretched out his hand, wanting to step forward to grab the sword, but Lou Jing retreated again and again.

Lou Jingtie's face was blue, "The people of Qilu are loyal and righteous first!" However, Guo Ting kept making plans, which led to the fall of King Qin! There is no way to repay the country, only death! ”

Lou Jing's wrist twisted slightly, blood flowed down the sword body, and his lifeless body fell to the ground with a "poof".

"What benefits did Liu Bang give you, to be able to get to such a point?!" Ziying gritted his teeth and scolded.

Lou Jing would rather die than surrender to the Qin State, and the child was extremely unhappy.

Liu Bang was young and chivalrous, and after raising the army, he disguised himself with benevolence and righteousness, and his hometown was handed over in Chuqi, Wei and Han... The child is not sure what the cause is.

The night breeze was blowing, and Ziying was confused, and stepped on horseback and went straight to Zhao Ji's camp.

"It's too late for the messenger to follow, let's take the important town of Zitong for the time being..."
