Chapter 431: Peak Loop

Qianqian, the fastest update of the latest chapter of Han Tianzi!

The originally closed gate of Zhencheng was unbelievably opened, and then a large group of Wang Lang's army swarmed out of the city gate.

However, looking at their appearance, it is not like they took the initiative to go out of the city to fight, but more like they were beaten out of the city, one by one the helmets are crooked, embarrassed, and many people's faces and bodies are covered with blood.

Looking at the city, the city was also in chaos, and the defenders did not know who they were fighting with.

Seeing this scene, people's eyes fell on Liu Xiu, Wang Ba swallowed his spit and muttered, "What's going on?" Could it be that Wang Langjun is plotting with us? ”

Liu Xiu immediately made a decision and said: "Whether it is the enemy's plan or not, since the city gate has been opened, there is no reason why we will not enter it!" ”

In order to capture Zhencheng, even if there is an enemy trap inside, Liu Xiu is willing to jump in and give it a try.

Liu Xiu waved the Chixiao Sword forward and shouted loudly: "Brothers, follow me into the city to kill the enemy!" As he spoke, he ran forward first. The surrounding soldiers shouted in unison, and followed Liu Xiu to rush forward to kill.

Wang Lang's soldiers who left the city in a hurry, many of them ran to Liu Xiu's side, and the two sides went in the opposite direction, and soon came into contact with each other. A soldier who was the first to meet Liu Xiuzhao didn't say a word, and stabbed with a spear.

Liu Xiu turned sideways and gave way to the edge, flashing past the opponent's side, and the Chixiao Sword also slashed the opponent's lower abdomen. As soon as he crossed the soldier, several more people ran in front of him, one of whom was holding a sword and slashed at the top of Liu Xiu's head.

He parried upwards with his horizontal sword, and when he was long, the two swords collided together, and there was a crisp sound, and without waiting for the other party to collect his sword, Liu Xiu approached forward and punched the opposite door, the latter hid his face and staggered back.

There was a spear stabbing at his side, Liu Xiu lowered his body downward, let go of the edge, hugged the legs of the sword-wielding soldier, and pushed it upward, the other party folded over the top of Liu Xiu's head, and led Liu Xiu behind him.

Without looking back, Liu Xiu was on the ground like a spring, jumped up, and even hit a soldier with a sword, and the blade of the sword also pierced the opponent's chest.

In the chaos of the battle, Liu Xiu kept rushing forward to kill, some of Wang Lang's soldiers died under his sword, and some soldiers were knocked down by Liu Xiu, where he passed, the corpses and the wounded lay on the ground in a long column.

Just when Liu Xiu led his soldiers and rushed forward to kill, a large group of people ran out of the city.

These people did not wear military uniforms and armor, all of them were dressed as ordinary people, and one of them held up a bloody severed head and shouted loudly: "Zhang Ji is dead, the head is here, those who refuse to disarm will be killed!" ”

This person's voice, coupled with the severed head held high in his hand, made the Wang Lang soldiers on the battlefield wilt one by one like deflated balls. Many of the soldiers threw away their weapons, fell to their knees, and gave up resistance.

The soldiers who were still holding weapons also looked panicked, their eyes were flustered, and they didn't know what to do.

As a large number of people with sharp blades poured out of the city, Wang Langjun had to face these people on the one hand, and Liu Xiujun on the other, and suffered from the enemy on his back.

Seeing that he had no chance to escape, the soldiers who refused to surrender also laid down their weapons.

The man who was holding Zhang Ji's severed head walked quickly through the crowd of Wang Lang's soldiers, came to the front of the Zhongshan County Army, looked around, and asked, "May I ask where is Da Sima?" ”

Liu Xiu wiped the blood stains on the Chixiao Sword as he walked out of the crowd.

He first looked at the man. This man is in his thirties, not tall, and thin, but he is full of energy, and his small eyes are shining.

Seeing him, Liu Xiu's eyes lit up and asked, "But Brother Boshan?" ”

This thin man looked for prestige, and when he saw Liu Xiu, his body was shocked, and without saying a word, he put down Zhang Ji's head, knelt on his knees, kowtowed forward, and said respectfully: "Villain Geng Chun, meet Da Sima!" ”

This person's name is Geng Chun, and he is from the Geng family, a famous family in Julu County. Liu Xiu and Geng Chun had met before. Liu Xiu lived in Handan for a long time, during which many celebrities in Jizhou came to visit, and Geng Chun was one of them.

At that time, Geng Chun saw that Liu Xiuqi was extraordinary, Corporal Lixian, and his entourage also understood etiquette and abided by the law, so Geng Chun had the heart to take refuge in Liu Xiu. However, later Liu Xiu went north and continued to appease the counties, and they separated.

Later, Wang Lang proclaimed himself emperor in Handan, and rewarded Liu Xiu's head with 100,000 households, Geng Chun was indignant about this, and discussed with his brothers Geng, Geng Su, Geng Zhi and others, and decided to raise the whole clan to defect to Liu Xiu.

Geng's family is a famous family in Julu County, and it is also the surname of Julu, Geng Chun took the clan to Liu Xiu together, and even relatives and guests, domestic servants, up and down, there are more than 2,000 people.

In order to show his determination, Geng Chun left home with the coffin to find Liu Xiu. But there are so many people in the Geng family, more than 2,000 people, not everyone may have Geng Chun's determination.

Worried that on the way to Liu Xiu, the clan relatives would have two hearts and bad things, Geng Chun also specially arranged for his two brothers, Geng Su and Geng Zhi, to secretly return to their hometown, burn down their own house and the house of their clan relatives, and cut off the way to retreat.

In this way, more than 2,000 members of the Geng family went all the way north and came to Zhencheng. When he arrived in Zhencheng, Geng Chun planned to rest here for two days before going on the road, going to Zhongshan County and taking refuge with Liu Xiu.

But unexpectedly, before they had time to leave, there was a sudden chaos outside the city, and I heard that there was a group of peasants outside the city waving Liu Xuan's banner and shouting anti-Lang slogans.

When Geng Chun heard this, he was very excited, and he took the whole clan to go out of the city to see, and if possible, he wanted to draw these peasants to his side, and then take them with him to Zhongshan County.

However, when Geng Chun and the others were about to leave the city, Zhang Ji arrived first with a large group of men, drank back the people who were watching nearby, and led a large number of soldiers to kill out of Zhencheng. Seeing this scene, Geng Chun was so anxious that he planned to make a move with the officers and soldiers.

Geng, Geng Su, Geng Zhi and other brothers stopped him, now there are too many soldiers in the city, once they are handed over, not only will they not be able to take advantage, but if they can't get it, the whole clan will have to be explained in Zhencheng.

Under the persuasion of everyone, Geng Chun suppressed the impulse in his heart and waited for the changes. As a result, Zhang Ji led more than 2,000 soldiers out of Zhencheng, but when he came back, there were only a few hundred people left, and they all lost their armor, like lost dogs.

The soldiers who were lucky enough to escape back to Zhencheng kept shouting: "It's the Zhongshan County Army!" It was Liu Xiu who took the Zhongshan Army to Zhencheng! We have just been ambushed by the enemy! ”

Hearing the shouts of the soldiers, Geng Chun and the others were overjoyed, this was really a nowhere to find the iron shoes, and it took no effort to get them. They were about to go to Zhongshan County to find Liu Xiu, but now, Liu Xiu had also arrived in Zhencheng.

Geng Chun and a few brothers looked at each other, if they don't do it now, when will they wait?

More than 2,000 Geng family members, led by Geng Chun, started an internal use for Liu Xiu in the city and launched a sneak attack on the soldiers defending the city. The soldiers defending the city were all focused on the outside of the city, who would have thought that an enemy would suddenly appear behind them.

Zhang Ji and other Wang Langjun were caught off guard by the Geng family who suddenly attacked, and the worst one belonged to Zhang Ji, who was sitting under the city wall panting and resting, and was stabbed in the back by Geng Chun, who was coming straight to him, and he died on the spot.

The soldiers of Wang Langjun, who were dizzy after being killed, had nowhere to run and nowhere to escape, and finally had no choice but to open the city gate and flee outside the city.

For Wang Langjun, this is called just out of Longtan and into the tiger's den. Waiting for them outside the city was none other than Liu Xiujun.

Under the siege of Liu Xiujun and the Geng family, more than 2,000 Wang Lang troops suffered more than 1,000 casualties, and the rest were all disarmed and surrendered.

That's how the whole thing went. After listening to Geng Chun's story, Liu Xiu involuntarily held Geng Chun's hand tightly and said movingly: "Brother Boshan made such a sacrifice to help Yu Xiu, which really made Xiu's heart uneasy!" ”

In order to take refuge in himself, Geng Chun did not hesitate to burn down his ancestral house, how much determination and courage did he have to be?

Geng Chun shook his head again and again, choked up and said: "As long as you can vote under the command of Ming Gong, let alone the ancestral house, even if it is pure powder and broken bones, you will not give up!" ”

Liu Xiu chose to sneak attack Zhencheng, but unfortunately, Zhencheng turned out to be the grain and grass tun base of the Yan Feng Department, where more than 4,000 Wang Langjun were stationed.

Originally, there was no chance of winning this battle, Liu Xiu had an idea, and came up with an idea of disguised villagers and scolding Wang Lang, so as to lure the snake out of the hole and annihilate the enemy outside the city.

The defenders in the city were as Liu Xiu expected, although they did not come out, but more than 2,000 people came out. It's just that Wang Langjun was more cunning than Liu Xiu imagined, and he didn't completely fall for the plan, and when he realized that it was not good, Zhang Ji ordered the withdrawal of the army.

In desperation, Liu Xiubu could only rush into battle, although he killed nearly 2,000 enemy troops, but Zhang Ji successfully escaped and ran back to Zhencheng.

When the battle came to this, it seemed that there was no chance of winning, but the peak turned around, and Geng Chun suddenly killed another part of the city, and joined forces with Liu Xiujun to win Zhencheng in one fell swoop.

This is really not as good as the sky, Zhang Ji is in Zhencheng, he is comfortably and easily doing his food officer, he never dreamed that disaster fell from the sky, and Zhencheng attracted Liu Xiu and Geng Chun, the two major killers.

Liu Xiu's capture of Zhencheng not only reduced the strength of Wang Lang's army, but the most critical point was that the grain and grass of Yan Feng's department fell into Liu Xiu's hands. Next, the 30,000 soldiers of the Yan Feng Department will face the dilemma of being cut off from grain and grass.

At the same time that Liu Xiu's troops occupied Zhencheng, the Yuyang army led by Wu Han and Wu Ziyan conquered Anxiang, and the Shanggu army led by Geng Yi and Geng Bozhao conquered Anding.

Now, the three cities of Zhencheng, Anxiang, and Anding have all been controlled by Liu Xiujun, and the siege of Linping, where Yan Feng's department is located, has been completed.

Liu Xiujun was menacing, and the successive losses of Anxiang and Anding had made Yan Feng feel cold, and the biggest blow to him was the loss of Zhencheng. This not only cut off his food channel, but also cut off his retreat.

Yan Feng was flustered, where would he continue to stay in Linping and sit still? He gathered his soldiers and quickly moved south, preparing to storm Zhencheng with superior forces and open up his own retreat.

Zhencheng.

Liu Xiu took his soldiers into the city and went to the county government as soon as possible.

As soon as he walked to the door of the county government, the county magistrate Hu Sheng hurriedly ran out, and before Liu Xiu approached, he had already knelt on his knees, kowtowed forward, and said tremblingly: "Xiaguan Zhen County Commander Hu Sheng, meet Da Sima!" ”

Hearing his words, everyone present almost laughed angrily. When Zhencheng was occupied by Wang Lang's army, his county order was Wang Lang's official, and now that Zhencheng is occupied by his own side, his county order immediately became Liu Xuan's official again.

This Hu Sheng, it's really windy and down!

In fact, now, not only Hu Sheng is like this, but also many county and county officials in Jizhou. The head of the city changes the king's flag. The heavens above have changed back and forth, what can they, the local officials, do? Of course, whoever is strong depends on whomever he is.
