"Sons, this person is Zhang Xutuo! Whoever can take his head, I have a great reward! "The Goryeo coalition forces surrounding Jaangsutuo were led by Hachi. He was also excited when he knew that the veteran of the Sui Army in front of him was Zhang Xutuo.

You must know that Gao Jianwu promised a heavy reward, whoever can get Zhang Xutuo's head can be rewarded with two gold, and a city can also be rewarded. Although Gaisu is also a high-ranking general, such a rich reward still makes him blush.

The mood of the coalition soldiers suddenly boiled completely.

"Kill! Kill this Suda and we'll send it! ”

They howled and brandished the broadswords and spears in their hands, and rushed up in a frenzy, as if they could easily cut off Zhang Xutuo by rushing to his side.

"Fight with you!" A young Zhang Xutuo guard, waving his saber in his hand, slashed at a soldier with a spear in his hand.

"Oops!"

Hearing a scream, the Sumo soldier couldn't dodge, and immediately found himself in a different place, his head flew into the air, and blood spurted out of his broken neck, which frightened several of his companions around.

However, before the guard could breathe a sigh of relief, he snorted and fell to the ground, a cold wolf's tooth arrow already shooting from a distance, piercing his throat and taking away his young, vigorous life......

"Kill!" The other guard roared angrily, and the long sword in his hand stabbed out like silver light with a cold light, and stabbed into the chest of a Blackwater soldier who had just rushed over.

The Blackwater soldier's body trembled violently, the saber in his hand fell to the ground with a "clang", and his hands weakly grasped the long sword that had pierced into his chest, and wailed bitterly......

......Before Zhang Xutuo's guard could draw back his long sword, a spear had already stabbed like a poisonous snake with a faint black glow, and pierced his throat coldly, and the red blood poured out from the throat wound of the middle gun, staining all his clothes red. The guard only felt that his eyes were dark, and his body suddenly became extremely heavy.

He barely raised his head and glanced at the man who had killed him. I saw that it was the husband of the Tiele Division. He smirked and drew his spear violently, and then attacked another guard who was holding a shield and guarding Zhang Xutuo's side......

After the guard fell, not far from him, another young Sui soldier, who was in his twenties and looked seven or eight points similar to him, was completely stunned when he saw all this, and he cried out "brother, brother", and pounced on him like a mad tiger with red eyes.

Although he was shot by a stray arrow and stabbed in the middle of the process, he finally managed to grab the husband of the Tiele Division. Then he held him as tightly as he could, no matter how many punches the captain threw at him. Then, with the last of his strength, he pulled out the short knife hidden at his waist and stabbed it into the captain's chest......

Brutal battles also took place in several other warbands. Hachi didn't expect that Zhang Xutuo's soldiers had reached such a point of exhaustion, and they had such a strong will to resist, and they could still burst out with such a powerful combat power before they fell.

"Humph! It's just a trapped! Yizhide also arrived with the army at this time, looking at the scene ahead, he couldn't help but snort coldly. But he didn't dare to get close to Zhang Xutuo anymore.

Twenty-eight guards who followed Zhang Xutuo fell one by one. Half an hour later, with the mournful roar of a war horse, Zhang Xutuo's horse also fell to the ground with an arrow, and could no longer get up.

Jang Sutuo rolled up from the muddy grass, continued the battle with a horse lance, and stabbed dozens of Goryeo coalition soldiers to death in succession. Although there were several enemies surrounding him, they could not get close to him.

"Are you all stupid? Give me arrows! Shoot him! Shoot Zhang Xutuo! Seeing that there were already circles of corpses of coalition soldiers around Zhang Xutuo, Yi Zhide couldn't help but be furious, roaring like thunder.

Rows of sharp arrows shot at Zhang Xutuo. Zhang Xutuo danced the horse lance in his hand like a windmill, and all the sharp arrows were knocked down by him, and he couldn't hit his body at all.

When Eozhide saw this, he was furious, and he shouted, "Give me the arrows, and let me shoot them!" ”

The soldiers beside him hurriedly handed over an iron-tired hard bow, and Yizhide immediately bent the bow and took aim at Zhang Xutuo's calf. He knew very well that Zhang Xutuo was very strict with his head, face, chest, abdomen, back and other vital parts, but for secondary parts such as arms and calves, his guard was much more lax.

With a "whoosh", the sharp arrow shot by Yizhide pierced the sky and flew towards Zhang Xutuo at a fast speed.

Yizhide's martial arts are already very high, and his archery skills are also excellent. Although Zhang Xutuo's martial arts are higher than Yizhide, he has long been exhausted. And all his attention was on fending off the indiscriminate arrows fired by the archers of the Goryeo coalition army. I didn't notice the cold arrow shot by Etoshi at all.

This time, he was caught off guard, and his left calf was hit by an arrow, and a stream of blood flew out.

Zhang Xutuo screamed miserably, his body staggered, and he almost fell to his knees.

"Puff, puff, puff", he was injured in the hand, and the sharp arrow shot through the gap between the lances he wielded, hitting him in the chest, and sinking into the handle.

Blood suddenly spurted from Zhang Xutuo's mouth, and his eyes were full of stars, only to feel that the strength in his body began to slowly decrease, and it was lost from the bursting wound......

"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh", more sharp arrows came, Zhang Xutuo was already unable to resist, and dozens of arrows were in his body, like a hedgehog.

At this moment, he could no longer stand steadily, and suddenly fell to his knees.

At this moment, the soldiers of the Goryeo coalition army had surrounded them from all directions. Countless weapons and several bows and arrows were already aimed at him.

As long as Yizhide gave an order, Zhang Xutuo would immediately become a corpse.

At this time, the sound of hurried horses' hooves sounded, and a large group of elite Goryeo soldiers arrived, and the coalition soldiers who had already opened their bows and arrows looked back at the comers, and hurriedly put away the bows and arrows in their hands and saluted solemnly.

In the midst of everyone, Gao Jianwu, the commander of the Goryeo Army, appeared, and the coalition soldiers had already made way for a passage. Revealing Zhang Xutuo, who was already dying at the end.

Gao Jianwu looked at the first brave general of the Sui Army in front of him, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart. This Zhang Xutuo is really powerful, he mobilized 150,000 troops, and used stratagems to lure Zhang Xutuo's generals Qin Qiong, Cheng Yanjin and Luo Shixin away, and then gathered and annihilated the main force of the army. The plan is not incomplete.

But Rao is like this, more than half of his 150,000 troops were killed and wounded, and even the Xianwei of the Heishui Department died in the chaos. It was a victory, but it was a pyrrhic victory.

Heroes cherish heroes, although Zhang Xutuo is Gao Jianwu's enemy. But he won the respect of his opponents with his proud record, his momentum of seeing death as home, and his righteousness towards his subordinates. Let Gao Jianwu rise up a sense of sympathy.

Today's battle made Gao Jianwu have to admire the first fierce general of the Sui army, his 150,000 army, set up an ambush on ten sides, with five times the enemy's strength, and finally fought hard for a day and a night. But so many men and horses were lost.

He believes that if Zhang Xutuo's soldiers and horses are doubled, then in today's battle, I am afraid that the victory or defeat will be transposed, and he is afraid that he will be defeated and killed.

Now Zhang Xutuo's helmet has also fallen to the ground, and the horse lance in his hand has long been thrown aside, and he can only rely on a big knife held in his right hand to barely support his body from falling.

Gao Jianwu bowed his hand at this time, and then said loudly: "Today's battle shows that the Great Sui is really heroic. General Zhang is worthy of being the first brave general of the Great Sui, showing his true character as a hero. The power of the Eight Winds Camp made Gao envious, jealous and hateful. Now General Zhang has been seriously wounded, to the point of exhaustion. There is a way to know that the person who knows the times is a handsome, and the general is such a heroic figure, the commander can't bear to kill him. Why don't you surrender for the time being! As long as you are willing to be a prisoner, Ben Shuai will definitely treat you well! ”

A famous general like Zhang Xutuo, Gao Jianwu must kill him to prevent future troubles. But he didn't want to kill Zhang Xutuo now. Gao Jianwu's plan is to leave Zhang Xutuo behind and use it when negotiating with Yang Guang. Gao Jianwu knows very well that Yang Guang's most trusted and relied on general is Zhang Xutuo. He can definitely use Zhang Xutuo as a bargaining chip to negotiate with Yang Guang to get a chance to breathe.

"Phew! You dream! ”

Zhang Xutuo slammed a mouthful of blood-stained phlegm on the ground, then raised the big knife in his hand and threw it at Gao Jianwu.

This sudden attack made Gao Jianwu startled.

He hurriedly dodged to the side, and the big knife flew past his cheek, but it cut off his ear, and the blood flowed.

Gao Jianwu covered his ears, only to feel that his hands were full of blood, and he roared angrily: "Zhang Xutuo, you don't know what to do!" It seems that you really can't be left behind! Kill him for me! ”

After losing the broadsword, Zhang Xutuo could no longer stand and fell to the ground.

He looked at the spears stabbed from all directions, and his bloodless face showed a disdainful smile and said: "Only Zhang Xutuo who died in battle, there can be no Zhang Xutuo who surrendered......"

Before he could finish his sentence, dozens of spears pierced all parts of his body together.

Blood was overflowing, and Zhang Xutuo was already out of breath, but his eyes were looking into the distance, and there was still a disdainful expression on his face, but the corners of his mouth were a little more sad.

The wind howled by the river, the rain dripped on the grass, and the blood had dyed the river red.

A generation of famous generals of the Great Sui died in a foreign country!

Looking at Zhang Xutuo's corpse, all the Goryeo coalition troops present couldn't help but be in awe, and no one dared to touch Zhang Xutuo's body.

"Let's go! His body is left here, let Sui Jun collect it for him! Let's withdraw! Gao Jianwu also calmed down at this time and said in a deep voice.

He and Yi Zhide also felt remorse in their hearts at this time, he never thought that Zhang Xutuo wanted to let these grassland tribes consume their strength, so as not to make the guests strong and weak, so that they would not be easy to control.

But Gao Jianwu never wanted these tribes to be defeated so badly and let the strength of the coalition army be greatly depleted. Now, although Zhang Xutuo's Wan Sui army has been annihilated. But the losses are so heavy that all the steppe tribes are considering whether they should wade into the muddy waters of Goryeo again.
