Chapter 41: The Arrival of Zhang Xutuo's Army

Donglai City, in the suburbs of about ten miles away from the South City Gate, not long after noon, a mighty army arrived here, and then they set up camp along the river!

The number of troops is not very large, about more than 10 thousand! The soldiers were all tired and their morale was a little low! However, these soldiers are lined up in a neat line, and the orders are forbidden, and they seem to be a very elite team!

This army is chasing Wang Bo's bandit army all the way, and the counterinsurgency army led by Zhang Xutuo, the general of the court!

Originally, they were chased by the Bo bandit army of the King of the Tail Sui, but unfortunately there was always a shortage of grain and grass in the army, and a lot of time was delayed in order to raise grain and grass along the way!

At this time, in the camp of the Chinese army, three generals were discussing the military situation around the main general!

Among them, the unusually majestic general is General Zhang Xutuo, he is more than eight feet tall, with a tiger's back and a bear's waist, his two arms are extremely thick, as if he has the strength of a thousand catties, a heroic and decisive face, his eyes are particularly slender, and his deep eyes are shining with a kind of dazzling light!

The other three generals surrounding him were his generals in the army, Qin Qiong, Luo Shixin and Cheng Yanjin!

The one on the left is Luo Shixin, he looks like a young man, but he was born with a big waist and a round waist, a strong figure, and he is the leading general in the counterinsurgency army.

The big man on the right with a Xuanhua axe is Cheng Biting Jin! He is eight feet tall, with big shoulders and thick hands, a full beard, a black face like the bottom of a pot, a pair of copper bells and big eyes, a soft foot hood on his head, a linen cardigan, and his front chest is open, revealing two inches of black hair on his chest.

Standing among them is Zhang Xutuo's number one general, Qin Qiong and Qin Shubao! He is Chinese New Year's Eve five years old, tall and strong, with a slightly yellow face, a pair of tiger eyes, but his gaze is very calm, and he has a short beard on his chin, giving people a sense of elegance and calmness. Qin Qiong has been taught by masters since he was a child, qiāng horses are proficient, martial arts are proficient, and the ancestral techniques are even more proficient, under a pair of golden maces, I don't know how many bandit rebels have been taken away!

Qin Qiong put down the information he had just finished reading in his hand, and looked at Zhang Xutuo calmly with a calm face, "General, I don't think we can attack the allied army!" They were just the army of the people of Donglai who spontaneously organized to resist Wang Bo's rebels, and they did not raise the banner zào fǎn, nor did they harm the people! ”

Zhang Xutuo's face was very heavy, he looked at the three henchmen in front of him, and said in a low voice: "They are an army after all, even if they don't raise the flag, they have already done a lot of arrogant things!"

"General, more than 10,000 allied troops can win more with less in just over ten days, and wipe out Wang Bo's hundreds of thousands of rebels, which shows that these allied soldiers are not only very morale, but also very elite! Even if we want to fight, if they hold the city, we won't be able to fight in a short time! ”

"Shixin is right! General, this alliance is very powerful, if we attack the city in a hurry, we will not be their opponents, and we will only harm the lives of the soldiers in vain! Besides, we don't have much food and grass, which is not enough to support us in attacking Donglai City! Qin Qiong looked at Zhang Xutuo with a little worry, the counterinsurgency army came from afar, and it was already extremely tired, and there was no chance of winning against the elite allied army!

"Then leave them alone, we're going to go back to Junqi County!" Zhang Xutuo sighed, hugged his fists in the direction of Daxing City and said, "I always feel ashamed of the saint, alas!"

"General, we only have five days of food and grass, which is difficult to support the army to return to Qi County!"

Hearing Qin Qiong's reminder, Zhang Xutuo felt a little helpless, remembering that when the army came, officials from all over the country shirked and withheld military rations along the way, and his face became extremely gloomy in an instant.

"General, we can ask the allies!" Cheng Biting Jin's voice is very loud, making people's ears feel a little buzzing!

Cheng Biting Jin's words made Qin Qiong's eyes light up, and she hurriedly agreed: "Yes, Biting Jin is good!" General, we can borrow food from the Allied Army, since they are not rebels, they will definitely sign it! ”

"Alright! Uncle Bao, I'll leave this matter to the three of you! Zhang Xutuo lowered his head and thought for a while, but finally agreed! However, the existence of the alliance army made it difficult for him to do it, and he was still unwilling to contact Su Shang directly, so he had to let Qin Qiong and them borrow grain!

Since last night, after receiving the news that Zhang Xutuo led the army to arrive in Donglai City, Su Shang convened all his henchmen overnight to discuss and discuss, and finally everyone unanimously decided to close the city gate and stand at the head of the city to respond to all changes!

Early this morning, Su Shang took Du Ruhui to the garrison camp in the city, and then stayed in the meeting hall! He wants to wait for news in the army, and always pay attention to the movements of Zhang Xutuo's army!

After all, General Zhang Xutuo is a very loyal and patriotic person in the history of the dream world! Who knows if he will come to attack Donglai City in a moment of hot-headedness!

"Report! Marshal, news came from Wei Junshou, and the court generals Qin Qiong, Luo Shixin, and Cheng Yanjin begged to see the marshal! "A pro-soldier trotted in to report!

Didn't Zhang Xutuo come? It seems that although he will not come to attack the Allied Army, he is also unwilling to have more contact with the Allied Army, Su Shang thought to himself!

"Let Yunqi bring them to the army! I'll see them in the big tent of the Chinese army! ”

"Yes!"

Su Shang looked at Du Ruhui and said with a smile: "Brother Ruhui, go!" Let's go to the big tent of the Chinese army and meet General Zhang Xutuo's right-hand man together! ”

"Brother Ruhan, what do you mean by General Zhang Xutuo sending them?" Su Shang asked Du Ruhui for advice as he walked, "As far as I know, Zhang Xutuo is a very loyal person to the court, even if he doesn't come to attack us, he won't have a good impression of the allies!" If there are no special circumstances, he should not easily contact us! ”

"Marshal, I guess there is a situation with the grain and grass in their army! Zhang Xutuo's army came after Wang Bo, but they were more than ten days behind the bandit army, which is unreasonable! The only possibility is that they are short of food and grass, and these days when they are late, they should go to collect food and grass! ”

……

It didn't take long for Qin Qiong and the three of them to follow Wei Yun to the big tent of the Chinese army! Along the way, Wei Yunqi explained to them in detail the situation of the Allied Army, and even included some training of the Allied Army!

The more Qin Qiong and the others listened, the more shocked they became, they couldn't have imagined that there was such an elite army in a small Donglai City!

After entering the garrison camp, the soldiers I met on the road were all with high morale and forbidden, this was not at all like an army organized by the people, they were even more elite than the counterinsurgency army of the court!

Qin Qiong couldn't help but sigh secretly, fortunately, the general finally decided not to fight the allied army, otherwise, the counterinsurgency army would definitely suffer heavy casualties!
