Chapter 40: Fu Zonglong's Night Attack

It seems that God is also sad.

A gust of wind blew, and it rained, Fu Zonglong first felt a cold on his face, and then wiped the raindrops on his face, although he felt that this autumn rain made the temperature much colder, but it was more of a kind of ecstasy of desperate life.

"Your Excellency." One of the guards immediately placed an umbrella on Fu Zonglong's head.

Fu Zonglong waved his arms, threw the umbrella aside, and said, "God help me, with this timely rain, I will be saved." ”

What is Fu Zonglong afraid of if he doesn't dare to break through? It's nothing else, it's Li Zicheng's cavalry, if after the heavy rain, the ground is muddy, and it can't allow the cavalry to gallop at all, although it is difficult to march on foot, but this is an option that is more difficult for me to fight.

Fu Zonglong's ecstasy is another point, that is, with these rains, the drought in Henan should be alleviated.

The rain not only fell on Fu Zonglong, but also on Chuang Ying and Cao Ying.

As soon as it rained, Zhang Xuan couldn't sleep.

Without him, he received 3,000 troops and no decent rain gear. A lot of people are sleeping in the open. Zhang Xuan had to come forward to borrow some tents, and in the end, Zhang Xuan dismantled all the shield carts and built a few sheds to protect from the rain. I have to move the camp everywhere, the land of Henan is flat, but it does not mean that there is no place for stagnant water, and the terrain does not seem to have much ups and downs, but when it rains, you will know where it is high and where it is low. In many places, there is a lot of water, and it is impossible to camp at all.

Zhang Xuan was busy for most of the night before he settled down.

On the second day, the rain did not stop, and the army would not attack the village, anyway, after several attacks on the village, the Qin army and the people in the village killed and injured each other, and they all made enemies. Li Zicheng's purpose was also defeated. He also estimated that there was not much food in the village, so he improved the siege into a siege.

wants to trap Fu Zonglong to death.

On the evening of September 16, the rain stopped, this autumn rain was not too big, but the ground was soaked, Zhang Xuan's cloth shoes walked in the mud, one foot brought out a foot of mud, as a last resort, Zhang Xuan changed into straw shoes, walking is a little easier.

Luo Yujiao is really right, the most expensive thing for the march is shoes, all the cloth shoes that Zhang Xuan brought out from Nanyang are worn out, and Zhang Xuan is now wearing shoes on his feet, which were made by Luo Yujiao for Zhang Xuan when he was newly married in Songshan. Zhang Xuan naturally cherishes his wife's handiwork. As for the other soldiers, those who have wives, such as Cao Zongyu, are naturally like Zhang Xuan, who have cloth shoes to wear, but without wives, they have to wear straw sandals.

In Zhang Xuan's tent, there is not much water, when it rains, it becomes a big rain outside, a small one inside, and the little girl is not around, some of his books are also wet, while it is not raining, he spreads out the books to dry, lights a lamp by himself, and is reading.

Suddenly heard the sound of shouting and killing, Zhang Xuan was suddenly shocked, without saying a word, he rushed out, but saw that in the Qin military camp, the flames were soaring, countless people were scurrying, and even affected Zhang Xuan's camp, Zhang Xuan was suddenly shocked in his heart, I don't know if it was the Qin army rebellion, or something else, so that Zhang Xuan suddenly remembered the security soldiers in the camp, you know, now Zhang Xuan's own old subordinates in the camp, but five hundred people, except for the two or three hundred personal guards around him, all scattered to become officers, if the security soldiers take the opportunity to plot chaos, The situation is simply out of control.

"Pass the order down, go back to the camp tent, and those who dare to go out of the tent will be beheaded, those who dare to talk nonsense will be beheaded, and those who dare to gather crowds will be beheaded." Zhang Xuan had a cold face, and the word "chop" came out of his mouth one by one, he knew that the current situation could not tolerate half distraction. He felt as if he was sitting on top of a dynamite bag, and if he ignited the fire, he would be blown to pieces. I don't care what happened to the Qin army, just suppress all the chaos in the camp.

Zhang Xuan said to the guards beside him: "The knife is out of the sheath, the bow is wound, I want to patrol the camp." ”

Just when Zhang Xuan was patrolling the camp with great fanfare, among Wang Jincai's tent, there was also a person who said: "My lord, when you keep interrupting, now is a good time to escape." If I get caught up in the thieves, I won't be able to tell in the future. ”

Wang Jincai's face was cloudy, and he couldn't make up his mind for a while. He was also reluctant to take refuge in the thieves, but he was even more reluctant to be in a different place.

Alive, better than anything else.

Suddenly, at this moment, Wang Jin heard the voice of Zhang Xuan patrolling the camp, and more than 100 soldiers shouted: "Those who dare to go out of the tent are killed, those who dare to talk nonsense are killed, and those who dare to gather the crowd are killed." ”

Wang Jincai said: "No, today's opportunity has passed. Go back. ”

It doesn't matter how many people there are in the camp, what matters is how many people are at hand, Zhang Xuan has already gathered the personal guards, and there are only a few people around him. There are many people who cannot be gathered, but these two or three hundred can destroy anyone before they are gathered. Moreover, the three generals sent by Zhang Xuan have their own characteristics, and they are not vegetarians, the opportunity has been lost, and there is no way out.

"But?" This man still wanted to speak, so he heard the outside say: "General Zhang has an order, please ask Wang Jincai to go and see him quickly." ”

Wang Jincai was taken aback. Looking at the person next to him, his thoughts were extremely chaotic. In a moment, a cold light flashed in Wang Jincai's eyes, and he secretly said in his heart: "Brother, I'm sorry." ”

The torches around Zhang Xuan soared into the sky, illuminating the night.

Hundreds of people surrounded Zhang Xuan, all of them unsheathed their knives and guns, their longbows wound, and in the dark night, there was even a coldness, as if they were ready to fight at any time.

Wang Jincai took a package, crossed several human walls, left all the guards around him outside, came to Zhang Xuan, knelt on the ground, opened the package in his hand, presented it with both hands, and said: "My subordinates meet the general, this person is bewitching the people, and the general will be beheaded." ”

Zhang Xuan's eyes narrowed slightly, and he looked at Wang Jin before he spoke. He only glanced at this head, Zhang Xuan was a little familiar with this person, it seemed that he was an officer among the guards, and among the soldiers, he still had some prestige.

However, Zhang Xuan didn't pay attention to him because he was dead. Dead people don't mess around. Only the living can do it.

And dead people can't speak, how does Zhang Xuan know that he is here to persuade Wang Jincai to make trouble, not an accomplice recruited by Wang Jincai, this world has long exhausted all Zhang Xuan's innocence, and he has long passed the time when others believe everything.

He didn't speak, he could only look at Wang Jincai like a knife.

Wang Jincai knelt in the mud, only feeling that his neck was cold, as if a knife was about to be cut down at any time, and he was covered in cold sweat.

"Get up." Zhang Xuan said: "Next time, remember to keep a living mouth, those who know think that General Wang is making meritorious contributions, and those who don't know think that General Wang is killing people and destroying his mouth." ”

"Yes." Wang Jincai breathed a sigh of relief and said, "My subordinates must keep it in mind. ”

Zhang Xuan finally decided to let him go, not because he believed that Wang Jin would not rebel, but because he couldn't guarantee that he would be loyal if he chose another person. In any case, Wang Jincai is showing loyalty to himself at the moment, and he can't kill people just because he is suspicious. Otherwise, how to unite people's hearts in the future, after all, these three thousand security soldiers, Zhang Xuan still has to use them. Moreover, Wang Jincai's prestige among the security soldiers, killing him can only intensify the contradictions.

"However, Wang Jin is not suitable for here." Zhang Xuan secretly said in his heart that he decided to kick Wang Jincai out of his camp as soon as he had time, but now he had to rely on Wang Jincai's prestige to suppress the surrendered troops.

When Zhang Xuan pacified the whole camp, did he know what was going on in the Qin military camp?

"What Fu Zonglong attacked last night, broke through the Qin army camp, and fled in the direction of Xiangcheng overnight?" Zhang Xuan was taken aback, and couldn't help but admire Ansheng in his heart. Zhang Xuan felt that if he was in Fu Zonglong's position, he would never be able to survive in such a desperate situation. Fight your way out of the dead.

"Bastard. Fu Zonglong was trapped for more than ten days, and even the horses were killed, and he was so tired that you couldn't stop it, what use do I want from you? Li Zicheng said angrily.

At this moment, in the camp of the Qin army, Li Zicheng led the generals at all levels who broke into the camp, and Luo Rucai led the generals at all levels of the Cao camp, but the generals in the Qin army kneeling below, some of them were the original officers in the Qin army, and some were selected from the camp.

Anyway, no matter who it is, they can't stop Li Zicheng's anger.

"Break the king's life, break the king's life." Several people kowtowed like pounded garlic and begged one after another.
