Chapter Seventy-Eight: The Loyal Soul (6)
After Zhang Xing left the general's mansion with a wave of anger, he said angrily to the subordinates of several lieutenants who were waiting for him outside the mansion: "Huang Houye didn't believe that we could retreat, so he ordered a retreat!" ”
"What? Fall back? Where to retreat? Everyone was a little surprised after hearing this, and they all asked.
"I don't know! Just gave me an order after the break! Zhang Xing shook his head angrily, then smashed his fist on the stone lion at the entrance of the General's Mansion, and turned to one of them: "Zhang Gui! You lead your 1,000 men to the north gate first, and then I will bring people to support you!" ”
"Okay, don't worry, brother! I'm going to block it! Zhang Gui nodded heavily, turned around and was about to get on his horse and leave.
"Wait!" Zhang Xing opened his mouth and shouted to stop Zhang Gui, took two steps forward in front of him, took his battle helmet from Zhang Gui's hand, and put it on Zhang Gui's head steadily, then patted Zhang Gui's shoulder heavily, and said, "Brother, be careful!" ”
Zhang Gui smiled a little indifferently, shook his head slightly, and said, "Brother, don't worry!" Our brothers followed the emperor to raise troops back then, and up to now, there have been dozens of large and small wars, I will pay attention! ”
Zhang Xing stared at Zhang Gui's eyes, didn't speak for a long time, just nodded slowly, and the hand holding Zhang Gui's shoulder added some strength.
"Alright, I'm going!" Zhang Gui raised his hand and slowly took off Zhang Xing's arm, and at the same time gave Zhang Xing a reassuring look, and then turned around and got on the horse and left.
Looking at Zhang Gui who was gradually moving away, Zhang Xing's heart unconsciously had an ominous premonition, and then he shook his head and smiled slightly mockingly, secretly laughing at himself for thinking too much.
Then Zhang Xing turned to the remaining people and said: "Huang Hou Ye arranged a task for us to break off, but only gave us 3,000 people, so the next battle is likely to be a tough battle, and even one of us may die in battle, if any of you are afraid, it is still too late to leave!" ”
"Don't be afraid! Swear to follow the general! As soon as Zhang Xing's words were finished, everyone shouted out in unison.
Zhang Xing looked at everyone with some emotion, didn't say superfluous nonsense, turned around, turned over and got on his own war horse, sat up straight on the horseback, pointed the horsewhip in his hand to the front, turned around and smiled: "Haha, tonight, let that group of ** who don't know whether to live or die know that we are powerful!" Walk! ”
Just when all this happened in the General's Mansion, Yin Bo at the North City Gate gradually controlled the situation, and at present, there was no longer a living Qi army in his line of sight.
Yin Bo did not defend the city wall, but divided everyone into small teams, preparing for a street battle with the Qi army at night.
Yin Bo was in front of the city cave at the north gate at this time, and the five thousand Feng family troops led by him were also in their own groups, scattered in various places in the nearby streets and alleys to garrison, ready to fight with the Qi army who came to seize control of the north gate.
"General, there is a Qi army in the southeast that is killing at the north gate, and it seems that there are about a thousand people!" A soldier of the Feng Family Army ran to Yin Bo and reported.
"I see!" Yin Bo replied lightly with an expressionless face, and then sneered disdainfully: "Heh, dare to come and die!" Then he lifted his spear and made a gesture to move forward.
"General!" Yin Bo's lieutenant Ji Guangjing stopped in front of Yin Bo first, frowned at the arrow wound on Yin Bo's left arm, and said to Yin Bo in a concerned tone: "General, you are still injured, let me go to meet the enemy!" ”
Yin Bo turned his head slightly to look at Ji Guangjing, stretched out his left hand, patted Ji Guangjing hard, and then said with a faint smile: "Look, it's okay at all!" It's just a small injury, it's not in the way! As he spoke, he shook his head forward and said, "Let's go, let's go together!" ”
After finishing speaking, Yin Bo carried a spear and strode towards the southeast. Ji Guangjing, who was following him, didn't say anything more when he saw this, just shook his head helplessly and followed Yin Bo's footsteps closely.
Yin Bo took out an hourglass timer from his arms as he walked, then frowned, turned his head to Ji Guangjing behind him and said, "Why hasn't General Meng arrived yet?" We can't wait any longer! ”
"General, we can't take any chances!" Ji Guangjing knew very well what Yin Bo wanted to do, and before leaving, Yin Bo vowed to catch Huang Hua in Hechi County.
But in this situation, if Yin Bo abandons the north gate to attack the General's Mansion, it is a very dangerous thing. After all, there were still nearly 20,000 defenders in Hechi County, while Yin Bo only had 5,000.
Yin Bo did not answer Ji Guangjing's words, and after arriving at the place where the war had already started, Yin Bo looked at the two sides of the fierce battle, and also stood in place and hesitated.
At this moment, there was a horn behind him, and Yin Bo was suddenly shocked, it was the people on the city wall who found Meng Hong who had rushed over, and was giving the order to attack according to his own arrangements in advance.
Yin Bo's face was overjoyed, he shook his head at Ji Guangjing beside him, and then waved his spear and rushed towards the crowd in front of him.
Yin Bo, who was already belligerent, rushed into the crowd, and with his extraordinary skills, he quickly tore a gap from the contact surface of the two armies, and rushed into the crowd of Qi troops first.
And in the rear of the Qi army to supervise the battle was Zhang Gui, who was ordered by Zhang Xing, when he saw a young ** general suddenly appear in his army, and there were constantly Qi army dead and wounded under his silver spear. Immediately, a wave of anger rose in Zhang Gui's heart, and after pulling out the saber from his waist, regardless of the obstruction of his subordinates around him, he also followed Yin Bo and rushed forward first.
Yin Bo, who was killing in the crowd of the Qi army, suddenly caught a glimpse of a bright light flashing on the left side, and immediately felt that something was wrong, and hurriedly blocked it with a horizontal gun.
"Bell!" With a crisp sound, Yin Bo saw the person in front of him who was attacking him, the same age as himself, at most two or three years older than himself, and the most important thing was that Yin Bo saw that the other party was the same as himself, a general.
So, Yin Bo came to the momentum, shouted in a deep voice, and the tiger wielding the silver spear in his hand forced the surrounding Qi troops to retreat, revealing a small open space, and then turned around and attacked Zhang Gui with a shot.
"It's good to come!" In the face of Yin Bo's move, Zhang Gui secretly praised, but his figure did not retreat but advanced, turned under his feet, and after dodging the bright tip of the spear sideways, the war knife in his hand forced Yin Bo's wrist holding the spear.
"Humph! The action is quite quick! In the face of Zhang Gui's counterattack, Yin Bo snorted disdainfully in his heart, suddenly stopped his forward figure, shook his wrist, and stopped the spear that was stabbed, and at the same time swept towards Zhang Gui with both arms.
Zhang Gui suddenly felt bad, if he was swept by this, then even if he didn't die, he wouldn't know how many ribs he would have to break. So Zhang Gui decisively withdrew the knife that was cut out, and at the same time held the handle of the knife with both hands, and went up against Yin Bo's gun.
"Bell!" After a sound, Yin Bo stood firmly in place, but Zhang Gui was shocked back several steps by this blow, and even the hands holding the handle of the knife were a little numb.
Just this time, Zhang Gui already knew that he was not Yin Bo's opponent, and he decisively decided not to fight hard, but freed his left hand, waved forward, and shouted: "Let's go together!" There is a reward for killing him! ”
