Chapter Twenty-Six: The Undefeated Name

Shen Qingwei is famous, and he is the most suitable person to guard the county in the east. Because Dongqian County is the only remaining passage connecting Wuxing County to Wu County, as long as the eastward migration is not lost, Wuxing and Wu County are not completely separated, and they can move eastward at any time to transfer and receive necessary supplies.

Therefore, Shen Muzhi gave up the six counties of Wu County, but he did not give up the strategic place of moving eastward!

If Chiba doesn't take the eastward move, the attack will be like a man's back, and he can't concentrate all his strength, but he has to divide his troops to attack, but his troops are insufficient, and he is easy to be broken by each one.

It's a dilemma!

"General, there are people outside the city calling for battle again!"

Shen Qing was eating, a table of meat, chicken, duck and fish with wild boar legs, there was no vegetarian food, but his figure was very thin, wearing a military uniform loosely, and he did not have the strength that a martial artist should have. Hearing the words of the part, his forehead was slightly raised, and his narrow eyes were full of light, like a knife full of sharp edges, which made people dare not look directly.

"His grandfather's, he can't stop eating! What did you scold this time? ”

"Scolded the general for being a woman's Yuhuzi, filled with a belly full of filth ......"

Shen Qing slammed the bowl, stood up and kicked over the food table, and said angrily: "You can't fight, you can't defend it, such a big Wuxing County, give it to people, what kind of reputation is my father doing!" ”

That part was used to seeing Shen Qing angry, so he didn't panic, and said: "In addition to scolding, I also used a stone cannon to throw in a woman's skirt, which said please change the battle robe for the general......"

"Get out!"

The trilogy ran away with a crawl, and Shen Qing almost smashed the things in the room, venting his grievances and dissatisfaction, but Shen Muzhi had a strict order, not to go out of the city, and to move eastward, no matter how bold he was, he didn't dare to disobey his father's order!

"Someone!"

"In!"

"Please sir!"

Mr. Guan is over fifty years old, has a long beard, and his body looks stronger than Shen Qing, if he is not wearing a scribe's robe, he looks more like a military general.

Shen Qing's face was solemn, and he judged the anger just now, and said: "The white thief is very anxious outside the city, and it seems that he wants to provoke me to go out of the city for a decisive battle. However, the more I think about it, the more I feel that the other party is suspicious, what do you think? ”

"It's not impossible to be imaginary!" Mr. Guan stroked his long beard and said, "Although there are 50,000 white thieves, there is not enough food and grass, and they will go north to invade the border in order to fight quickly, so it is impossible to delay for too long in Wucheng." If I were Chiba, I would definitely concentrate all my forces to attack the * Cheng and go down with one drum! ”

"Isn't Wucheng in danger?"

Shen Qing was anxious and restless, but he remembered Shen Muzhi's advice, but he was helpless. Mr. Guan's eyes were a little weird, and he said in a low voice: "The general will not be subject to the foreign monarch's order, and the plan of the servant is to let the eastward move to attract part of the white thief's troops, echo Wucheng from afar, drag the white thief to death here, and wait for the arrival of the army in the imperial court, and then gather and annihilate it." But the battle situation is ever-changing, Chiba is not an idle person, he saw through the plan of the servant, and only trapped my 3,000 elite soldiers with 300 old and weak, and the main force is attacking day and night. ”

"No, I will fight my father to blame, and I will also send troops to rescue!"

"Can't rush!" Mr. Guan grabbed Shen Qing and said, "Wait until the night to send someone out of the city, see the truth and make a decision!" ”

That night, Shen Qing sent five elite scouts to infiltrate the white thief camp outside the city to investigate, and found that there were only more than 300 old and weak soldiers, and the rest of the camp tents were empty. Five scouts and two people rode fast horses to Wucheng hurriedly, no ambush was found along the way, to Wucheng five miles away, saw the white thief is attacking the city in a big way, the smoke of gunpowder is filled, the battle is shaking, regardless of the cost of casualties, part of the city wall collapsed into pieces, obviously to the most urgent juncture.

When Shen Qing received the report, he no longer hesitated, and immediately gathered two thousand soldiers and horses and went straight to Wucheng. At the end of the ugly hour, it was the darkest time of the day, Shen Qing wanted to be surprised, inserted into the heart of the white thief from behind the battlefield, and cooperated with the Wucheng army to become an immortal achievement. But what I didn't expect was that I had just traveled to a valley and encountered an ambush!

Rolling logs and boulders rained down from the hillsides on both sides, followed by arrows that flew into the sky, and Shen Qingbu was caught off guard, killing and injuring more than 200 people in an instant. Fortunately, Shen Mu's beloved son, who was assigned to Shen Qing, was the well-trained troops of the Shen family, and after a short period of panic, he reorganized his army, with shield bearers on both sides, crossbowmen fighting back in the dark, and cavalry in front, rushing out of the valley.

As long as they are out of the valley and flat in the wilderness, they will not scare anyone!

Shen Qing crouched on the horse's back, braving the arrows to lead his subordinates to gallop, his nose suddenly smelled a strong oily smell, and a little fire appeared in the darkness in the distance at the same time, his face changed drastically, and said, "Withdraw, withdraw quickly!" ”

It was too late, and dozens of rockets cut through the night sky in perfect arcs, igniting the pile of grass and trees that had been placed at the mouth of the valley beforehand. Only then did Shen Qing see clearly that not only Taniguchi, but also the ground where they were now was covered with thick hay, the grass was poured with sesame oil, and the fire borrowed the wind and rolled up, like an evil dragon released from hell, swallowing the bone-devouring flames, burning the hundreds of people who rushed to the front into ashes.

Shen Qing's eyes were torn, he was trapped in this small valley, one wrong step, one wrong step, the opportunity had been lost, and there was no room to play his strengths, so he was really aggrieved. But if you are not reconciled, there is no way, the top priority is to live first, and you can't let all the two thousand elites die here.

"The back team becomes the front team, and the original way is withdrawn!"

After a hard battle, although the white thief was ambushed in front, the actual combat strength could not be compared with the Shen clan's troops, Shen Qing finally got rid of the dead, and returned to the east with the remaining more than 800 people in disgrace. When he arrived at the city wall, he shouted to open the city gate, but he didn't expect another wave of deadly arrows.

Shen Qing was escorted by the guards and retreated to a safe area, and when he didn't know what happened, a torch was lit at the head of the city, and Mr. Guan appeared at the head of the city, scolding him: "Wu Na white thief, I expected that you would come to the city and leave quickly, otherwise this place tonight will be where you are buried!" ”

It turned out that he was mistaken for a white thief, Shen Qing was not angry but happy, Mr. Liuguan was really right to defend the city, he slapped his horse out of the battle, and said loudly: "Sir, it's me!" Shen Qing! ”

"General Shen? Ha, you have bothered to find a ventriloquist who can learn from my general, thinking that you can trick me into opening the door? Don't! ”

Shen Qing couldn't help but drive the horse forward for more than ten steps, ordered the torches to be lit left and right, and said, "Sir, you see the truth, it's really me, not a white thief fake." There are still pursuers behind, open the city gate quickly and let us in! ”

"My general led his troops to rescue Wu Cheng, this must have broken the white thief, how could he turn around and come back? Tonight, it's dark and I don't see my fingers, just fireflies, I'm not a fairy, how can I see it really? You go back ......"

"General, no!"

Worried about the admonition, Shen Qing disagreed, and said, "Mr. Guan can still harm me?" After speaking, he walked dozens of meters, held the torch high with one hand, and said, "Is it real this time?" ”

"Look at your appearance, you are quite similar to General Shen, but you can describe it as obscene, sluggish, and completely different from the general's usual high spirits. I advise you to think less and run for your life! ”

Shen Qing couldn't cry or laugh, he was ambushed in the valley, almost lost his life, and fled in embarrassment, describing how not to be obscene, how not to be sluggish, how can it be compared with weekdays? Mr. Guan is very smart and is a mentor he relies on, but at the moment, he seems to be too suspicious.

"Sir, the white thief is cunning, set up in ambush, I fought for a long time to escape, please open the city gate. When you enter the city, you will know if it is true or not! ”

"This ...... Well, take three hundred men into the city first, but throw your sword into the doorway. Remember, but if there is a reckless move, don't blame my men for being ruthless! ”

“…… Well, listen to you! ”

Shen Qing retreated into the formation, and some of the troops stepped forward and said, "General, it's better to be careful." It is better for me to enter the city on behalf of the general, find out that there is no danger, and then ask the general to leave. ”

Someone immediately retorted, saying: "The chasing soldiers are imminent, what are your intentions to let the general enter the city?" If you are surrounded by pursuers, how many heads do you have, which can be exchanged for the life of the general? ”

Before the man could argue, Shen Qing was very impatient and said, "If Mr. Guan has a problem, the distance just now is enough to order someone to shoot me from the top of the city." I deliberately risked my life to try him, and now everything seems to be fine. In fact, it's no wonder Mr. Guan, he has always been cautious, whoever let us not act according to the agreed plan, turn back halfway, and change everyone will be suspicious. ”

The plan has been decided, no one dares to say anything more, not to mention that he can't afford to delay the time, Shen Qing ordered three hundred people to cross the moat, waited for the city gate to be opened, threw down the sword at the door, and then swaggered into the city.

About two quarters of an hour later, the city gate opened again, and Mr. Guan appeared at the head of the city and said, "Come in, brothers, you have offended a lot just now, don't blame it!" ”

Everyone escaped death, and was suspected by their own people, trapped outside the city hungry and cold, scolding and scolding non-stop, this will listen to Mr. Guan's words, where can they still bear it, and rush to the city gate.

The person who had previously admonished Shen Qing was coerced and moved a few steps forward, and suddenly stopped. General Shen entered the city, it is reasonable, Mr. Guan should go to accompany the general, and the trivial matter of beckoning them to enter the city can be arranged casually with a building owner, so ...... He raised his hand and shouted, "There is fraud, there is fraud, don't go in first", but no one heard his words in a mess, and even if he did, he only listened to it.

The man's expression changed, he stomped his foot, turned around and left, and disappeared into the night alone, until he was gone!

"Kill!"

Before the soldiers who had just entered the city could react, they were killed by countless arrows, behind them was a thick and unshakable closed city gate, and in front of them were cold knives and guns that flashed with cold light, and with an emotionless "kill, kill, kill", sharp sharp weapons broke through the skin and flesh, and easily took away one fresh life after another.

At this moment, human life is not valuable!

"Report, Shen Qing's rest of the department, a total of nine hundred and seventeen people, have all been ambushed!"

Mr. Guan said with a smile: "Okay, let's go down, send someone to change into the clothes of the Shen clan, guard the city, don't slack off!" ”

"No!"

Shen Qing was tied to the pillar of the court by Wuhuada, stared at Mr. Guan coldly, and said, "Guan Shu, I asked myself if I have been good to you in the past two years, why did you betray me?" ”

Guan Shu smiled and said nothing, there was a person sitting next to him, in his thirties, with a Chinese face, a resolute complexion, thick eyebrows, and sneered: "Shen Qingyi has such a big reputation, what a powerful character I should be, today, it seems that it is just a wine bag and rice bag, it is not worth mentioning!" ”

"You!"

Shen Qing almost gritted his teeth and said, "If you have the ability to fight with a knife and a gun, you can only conspire and scheming, what kind of hero is it?" ”

Guozi shook his head, as if he disdained to talk nonsense with Shen Qing. His expression angered Shen Qing even more, and he struggled desperately, the iron chain tightly strangled his body, and there were blood marks, but he was never able to break free.

"Tsing Yi, I'm a person from the Heavenly Master!" Guan Shu sighed and said: "Since we met at the Huanyi Ferry two years ago, you and I have hit it off at first sight, and I am grateful for your care these days!" ”

"Phew! White thief! ”

Guan Shu was unmoved, and said: "It's just that each is his master, and there is no way to do it to this step of the field today." I have bribed some people in your tribe in the past two years, so there are 700 people in the Heavenly Master Army who are hiding in Lu Village, twenty miles east of the east, without being discovered by you. The five scouts sent tonight, two of them my men, reported that there were no ambushes on the way, and led you into the valley. As for this city, as soon as you left with your troops, the 700 Heavenly Division of Lu Village arrived at the city, and I ordered people to open the city gates, put them into the city, and exterminated the thousand parts you left to defend the city...... You should be happy when they die without knowing what happened and being slaughtered unsuspectingly. ”

Guan Shu walked up to Shen Qing and said sincerely: "At least, you understand what you are dying!" ”

"White Thief ......"

Shen Qing spit out a mouthful of bloody phlegm, Guan Shu turned his head and flashed, and at the same time, there was a short dagger shining with green light in his hand, which gently pierced into his heart, his eyes were calm and ruthless, and said: "Six days of governance, three teachings and Taoism, Tsing Yi, strange and strange, you and I have different ways!" ”

"Shui Guan, without further ado, we should go to Wucheng!"

Guan Shu stared at Shen Qing, who was staring at the dead eye, brushed his cheek with his right hand, closed his eyes, and said, "Fourth general, you don't have to go to Wucheng, stay and guard the Dongqian City, there is plenty of grain and grass here, and you can't afford to lose!" ”

The national character face, known as the Four Generals, frowned, and said: "Water Officer, don't forget your identity, General Chiba ordered you to assist me, but he didn't let you point fingers at me!" ”

"Identity?" Guan Shu said indifferently: "Under God, the ten generals and ten wives are the leaders, but don't forget, although the five wounded officers are under the general's wife, they directly obey God's orders and have no subordinate relationship with you. ”

"Hmph, the water officer is clearly going to steal the credit?"

Guan Shu laughed and said, "How can I not know the thoughts of the four generals? Since the Yangzhou uprising, the seventh general Liu Yan seized Qiantang at night, defeated Qiu Yuan in the city, the three generals Qi Ming, led the water army to block the Shanghai and desecrated water divisions outside the territory, the general Qianye led the troops to defeat half of Wuxing County, and the wives of other generals also had many gains, only the four generals You have no chance to make meritorious contributions, this time I took the initiative to ask Ying to take the east, but I still feel that it is not enough, and I want to take the credit of Wucheng together, isn't it? ”

"You! Daring! ”

Guan Shu took out a dark token from his bosom and said coldly: "Little God's Decree!" ”

The four generals were startled and hurriedly knelt down, panicked. Guan Shu's eyes narrowed, and he said: "Order Liu Yin to guard the eastward movement and supply food and grass for the army, don't make a mistake!" ”

"Obey the law!"

Guan Shu arranged the defense of moving eastward, and the Heavenly Master army chasing Shen Qing outside the city, a full 2,000 men, all changed into Shen's clothes, and then under the banner of Shen Qing, quickly went to the Wucheng battlefield.

On the high slope three miles away from Wucheng, Guan Shu stopped to watch, and the fight was all night, and both sides showed fatigue. The victory of the Heavenly Master Army is in the army, and it can be attacked in batches, and the Shen Shisheng is relying on the city, condescending, and will not retreat, but under the fierce attack of the Heavenly Master Army, the outer city of Wucheng is crumbling, and if there are a few more stone cannons, it may collapse.

Contacted the people sent by Chiba, planned the route of the march, and gave an order, and the disguised Heavenly Master army descended the mountain like a tiger and inserted itself into the battlefield from the rear.

As a new force, it was like a dragon entering the sea, flickering left and right, instantly dispersing the formation of the Heavenly Master Army. Shen Xing is Shen Muzhi's third son, responsible for guarding the south gate, and is leading people to desperately resist dozens of white thieves who have crossed the city, suddenly felt a light pressure, received a report from his subordinates, and hurriedly rushed to the city to watch.

A Shen clan of about 2,000 people slaughtered all sides under the leadership of Qingziqi, and the almost invulnerable deployment of the Heavenly Master Army was scattered, Shen Xing was overjoyed and said: "It's Xiaosun who has come to help!" Come on, order a thousand people, and follow me out of the city to answer! ”

"General, do you want to tell the servant first?"

"This ......"

Shen Xing hesitated slightly, and said: "Okay, go and tell my father quickly, just say that Wulang is coming to help, and I will ask the whole army to go to war, so as to destroy the enemy in this battle!" ”

Shen Muzhi sat in the Taishou Mansion, it took half an hour to come and go, and before Shen Muzhi's reply, the support army under the city had lost its previous sharpness, and was besieged by the white thieves who mobilized heavy troops layer by layer, like a dragon that was bound hand and foot, and failed to break out of the quagmire several times.

"Look, General, they're coming to the city gate!"

Perhaps after waiting for the soldiers and horses in the city to arrive, the reinforcements could not be supported alone, so they walked while fighting and moved to the south gate as much as possible. Shen Xing's eyes were like lightning, and through the fire in the sky, he saw that the person under Qingqing's banner was Mr. Xi beside Shen Qing, and there was another person named Tong Zhu, who was the owner of Shen Qing's subordinates, both of them were familiar faces, and there was no doubt that they should be the reinforcements sent by Shen Qing, and said angrily: "Is the herald back?" ”

"Report! Passing on the order, Shen Xing is not allowed to go out of the city to fight, in case there is fraud! ”

"Huh? What did Father say? Shen Xing grabbed the hem of the herald's clothes and said viciously: "Say it again!" ”

"There are orders in the waiters, but the generals don't ...... Don't go out of town! ”

"Do you want to see them die in battle? This is all my Shen clan's part! Shen Xing slammed his fist on the head of the city, blood seeped from his fingers, and said, "What kind of battle is this fighting!" ”

The reinforcements approached the moat, and Guan Shu rode his horse and said loudly: "Open the door quickly, I am on the order of Gorou and have confidential information to report to Shizhong!" Before he could finish speaking, an arrow hit Guan Shu's shoulder, he turned over and fell from his horse, and the pillar held onto him, his face was covered with blood, and he scolded bitterly: "What are you dogs doing? We have come to save you, and you will watch us die? ”

Chiba Le Ma stood behind the formation, beside him was 10,000 white feathers that had not yet been used, this is the most elite combat power of the Heavenly Master Army, and there are white feathers inserted behind the hat, so it is called the white feather capital.

"What if Shen Xing doesn't open the door?"

Chiba was still handsome and handsome when he was gathering in Qiantang Lake, and his expression was extraordinary, but there was a little more Xiao Killing between his eyebrows, and he said: "There are only three sons of Shen Muzhi, one Shen Qing, who has been awarded the head, and one Shen Yue, who is still in Jinling, only this Shen Xing is brave and good at fighting, but there is one point, this son is the most important brotherhood, and he is also very good to the tribe and slaves, and is deeply loved by everyone." Such a person is the easiest to lure with feelings, if he can't even deceive the south gate he guards, then we can only take the risk of storming it......"

Even Chiba couldn't estimate how much it would cost to storm a fortified city, so their eyes were fixed in the direction of the south gate, waiting for Shen Xing to make a final decision.

"The gates are open! General, the gates are open! ”

Shen Xing finally couldn't bear the fact that Shen's troops were so weak to die in battle, in his mind, as long as he received reinforcements into the city, it would not be considered a violation of his father's order. Three hundred brave men rushed out from behind the city gate, crossed the moat, held the bridge, intercepted the pursuers of the white thieves, and let Guan Shu and Tong Zhu enter the city first.

As soon as they arrived at the doorway, the soldiers guarding the city waved their arms quickly and said, "Quick, quick, come in." Unexpectedly, there was a pain in the abdomen, the steel knife leaked out, and the blood flowed sideways, and there was no time to react, and he fell to the ground and died.

Chiba pulled out the long sword from the leaf on his waist, pointed at Wucheng from afar, and said, "Kill!" ”

The white feathers poured into the battlefield like a tide, and wherever the tip of the knife went, it was the yellow spring, and wherever the horse's hooves went, it was full of wailing!

Overnight, the eastward migration, the fall of Wucheng, and the undefeated name of Chiba began to spread all over the world!
