Chapter 214: Fighting Out of the City

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

Although Cen Peng received the order conveyed by Zhen Fu, he still strictly guarded the city and closed his door.

After two days, seeing that Cen Peng still did not have any movement in Xinye, Zhen Fu sent Cen Peng a third letter, this time the letter was much harsher, and ordered Cen Peng to lead the army out of the city and fight to the death with the Chung Ling army.

However, when the letter was sent to Xinye, it was like a stone sinking into the sea, Cen Peng was still the same, and did not accept Zhen Fu's general order, and still did not move.

At this time, Zhen Fu was also anxious, and sent a fourth letter to Cen Peng, in this letter, Zhen Fu sacrificed a killer weapon and ordered Cen Peng to go to war, otherwise he would be punished as a premeditated rebellion.

Zhen Fu's charge for Cen Peng was not disobedience, but premeditated rebellion, and there was a big difference between the two.

If it is the former, at best it is the fault of one person, and one person will be killed, and if it is the latter, then it is not a person who will die, but a person who will die a whole family, and he will be beheaded by the whole house.

You must know that Cen Peng's family is in the county seat, in Zhen Fu's hands. This letter of his is tantamount to telling Cen Peng bluntly, if you don't fight, you will kill your whole family!

After reading Zhen Fu's letter, Cen Peng couldn't help but look up to the sky and sighed, he couldn't watch his family suffer because of his relationship, he had no choice but to follow Zhen Fu's order and go out of the city to fight.

Before going out of the city to fight, Cen Peng specially sent a group of elite dead soldiers under his command to let them break through the siege and rush to Shuyang, find the commander Liang Qiuci, and ask the county army to come to the aid of the battle of Xinye.

At present, the strength of the Lingling army outside Xinye City is close to 10,000, but the army of tens of thousands is not enough to surround the huge Xinye City.

The group of dead soldiers sent by Cen Peng attacked from the weak point of the Chungling army, and finally they really opened a bloody way and successfully broke through the encirclement of the Chungling army.

This group of dead soldiers traveled day and night, rushed to Shuyang, met Liang Qiuci smoothly, and then handed over the book written by Cen Peng himself.

Liang Qiuci read the book from beginning to end, then rolled it up, put it aside, and asked the dead soldiers: "How many soldiers and horses are there outside Xinye City at present?" ”

The leader of the dead soldiers replied: "Returning to Lord Duwei, there are more than 10,000 people. ”

Liang Qiuci narrowed his eyes and said suspiciously: "More than 10,000 people? Some time ago, I heard that the anti-thieves were only about eight thousand. The leader of the dead soldiers bowed his head and said: "The strength of the rebel army is expanding very rapidly, and new people are constantly joining, if the stalemate continues, the strength of the rebel army will only increase, and it will become more and more difficult to deal with." General Cen has now made up his mind to fight to the death against the rebels

, I also hope that Lord Lieutenant can lead the army to Xinye, and the two armies will work together to fight the rebels! ”

Liang Qiuci nodded quietly and said, "Well, I know, you go down and rest first!" ”

"Lord Lieutenant, the military situation is urgent, and there is no ...... delay"

Before he could finish speaking, Liang Qiuci said impatiently: "I said that I already know, you can go down and rest, didn't you hear my words clearly?" ”

The leader of the dead did not dare to linger any longer, bowed to Liang Qiu, and then retreated with several other dead soldiers. After they all left, Liang Qiuci picked up the book again, read it again, laughed out loud, and said: "Cen Peng is not a fool, he naturally knows that with the strength of the Xinye County soldiers, going out of the city to fight is to kill himself. He is now taking the initiative to fight the decisive battle

Heart, I'm afraid that it was also forced out by Zhen Fu! ”

A lieutenant took a step forward and asked, "Lord Duwei, do you want our army to forcibly cross the river and rush to Xinye to help General Cen?" ”

Liang Qiuci said slowly: "Do you think that the anti-thief cavalry on the opposite side has already withdrawn?" ”

"This ...... Although there is no trace of the thief at present, according to the opinion of his subordinates, the thief should still be hiding near the east coast! "Yes, the anti-thief cavalry has not withdrawn at all, our army is now forcibly crossing the river, it will definitely be attacked by the anti-thief cavalry, even if our army has the advantage of strength and can win in the end, I am afraid that it will be a miserable victory, excluding the casualties of the soldiers, how many can be left."

Can people rush to Xinye to fight? ”

The crowd looked at each other, but no one spoke.

Liang Qiuci continued: "The anti-thieves have 10,000 troops in Xinye, even if the remnants of our army arrive in Xinye in time and merge with the county soldiers of Cen Peng's first department, how much effect can it play?" "The final result is either defeat or a crushing victory over most of the soldiers. The county army is gone, so it is natural to reorganize, Zhen Fu is cunning and cunning, how could he miss this opportunity? By then, he didn't know how many cronies he had to plant

, if I can't get it, I'm a lieutenant, and I'll have to be too guarded by him. ”

For Cen Peng, for the battle of Xinye, he asked him to take out all his family funds to make a bet, he was not so stupid. The battle of Xinye can be defeated, and Cen Peng can also be killed, but his county army must not be lost.

Another lieutenant said worriedly: "Lord Duwei, if Cen Peng is defeated, Zhen Taishou will definitely put the responsibility on the adult, and will say that the adult is a bystander and refuses to help Cen Peng!" Liang Qiuci smiled, raised his hand and nodded at the captain, and said: "Therefore, we still have to cross the river, but because the enemy troops on the other side are too strong and the attack is too fierce, our army has not been able to cross the river smoothly, so the failure of the battle of Xinye can be blamed."

It's not on us anymore. ”

The lieutenant's eyes rolled, a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and he said with a smile: "The responsibility is still on Cen Peng, because of his previous passive slackness, which caused a large number of enemy troops to pass through Xinye and infiltrate into Huayang, creating a huge resistance to our army's crossing of the river. ”

"Haha!" Liang Qiuci laughed on his back, obviously the captain's words entered his heart.

Looking at Liang Qiuci, who was talking and laughing with the captains under his command, Lu Zhi couldn't help but sigh in his heart, this battle could no longer be fought.

Taishou and Duwei don't agree, you calculate me, I calculate you, intrigue with each other, and almost tear your face on the surface, how can this battle be fought?

In this situation of infighting, if you can still defeat the Chung Ling army, it will be a miracle.

It's a pity that now Lu Zhi can't say anything, in the troubled waters, he can't change anything except go with the flow, if he talks too much, he will become a thorn in the side of the people around him, and he will be regarded as an alien, and he will be excluded and eradicated.

According to the time agreed by Cen Peng in the book, Liang Qiuci sent some troops to the battle, and the county army of nearly 6,000 people, riding large and small ships, drove towards the opposite shore in a mighty way.

As soon as the boat crossed the center of the river, the cavalry led by Liu Xiu rushed out of the woods on the opposite bank. The cavalry lined up on the shore and waited for it.

When the ship was still fifty meters away from the shore, the cavalry on the shore began to raise their crossbow machines and tentatively fire arrows. As soon as the cavalry released arrows, Liang Qiuci immediately ordered the ship to be stopped and asked the soldiers of the county army to release arrows on the deck to counterattack.

The two sides were on the shore and the other on the boat, fifty meters apart, firing arrows at each other.

This fight can be described as lively, the arrows of both sides are constantly going back and forth in the air, you and I are shooting each other round, but there are few arrows that can really shoot or injure each other.

The county army headed by Liang Qiuci fought like this when crossing the river.

The two sides engaged in a stalemate from morning to noon, and from noon to evening.

When it got dark, Liang Qiuci couldn't wait to give an order immediately, the rear team changed to the front team, and the whole army retreated to Shuyang. This was the end of the day's fighting, and the casualties on both sides were added up, and there were no more than fifty men, and everyone was happy.

On the other hand, Cen Peng led a county army of more than 4,000 people to rush out of Xinye and launch a fierce attack on the Chungling army in the north of the city according to the plan agreed between him and Liang Qiuci.

The main force of the Chungling army is stationed outside the southern city of Xinye, and the Chungling army outside the northern city is not much, led by a school captain named Liu Yue, who is the clan of Liu Xuan and Liu Xiu.

Knowing that Cen Peng led thousands of county soldiers out of the city suddenly and killed his side, Liu Yue was not afraid, but was overjoyed, thinking that his opportunity to make a contribution had come.

He led more than 1,000 Chungling troops under his command and went out of the camp to meet the battle. In front of the two armies, Liu Yue rushed out of his own formation, and asked Cen Peng to come out and fight him in a decisive battle.

Cen Peng also gave face, and really went out of the formation single-handedly, and started a battle with Liu Yue in front of the two armies.

Although Liu Yue's force is not as good as Liu Ji's, he still has some skills, and extraordinary generals can compare.

Cen Peng and Liu Yue fought for five or six rounds, and suddenly felt impatient, and when the two of them staggered, Cen Peng fiercely pulled out the iron whip behind his back and smashed the back of Liu Yue's head.

Hearing that the evil wind behind him was not good, Liu Yue hurriedly lay forward, and heard a buzzing sound, and the iron whip whistled above his head, and before he could straighten his waist, Cen Peng followed a saber back and stabbed him in the side.

This knife was so strong that the tip of the three-pointed and two-edged knife did not enter Liu Yue's body. When Cen Peng pulled out the three-pointed two-edged knife, the side tip of the knife head hung out Liu Yue's intestines.

Liu Yue only shook the horse a few times, and then, he fell headlong and fell headfirst from the horse, killing him on the spot.

Cen Peng stabbed Liu Yue to death with a knife, which greatly boosted the morale of the county soldiers, and as Cen Peng waved the three-pointed two-edged knife forward, the county soldiers shouted one after another, swarmed up, and ran straight to the Chung Ling army on the opposite side.

There were only about 1,000 people in the Chung Ling army, more than 4,000 county soldiers, and the main general Liu Yue was also killed by Cen Peng, and the people's morale was low.

Just when Cen Peng led the county soldiers and chased after the buttocks of the Chungling army, the two Chungling armies led by Liu Ji and Deng Feng rushed over in time. As the so-called enemies meet, they are very red-eyed. Liu Ji and Deng Feng fought Xinye for more than a month, but they failed to tear apart Xinye's city defense, Liu Ji hated Cen Peng so much that the roots of his teeth itched, not to mention that Cen Peng had just killed his brother Liu Yue of the same clan, and Liu Ji was even more

I can't wait to drink its blood and eat its flesh.

Liu Ji held the Spring and Autumn Broadsword in his hand and roared angrily: "Cen Peng, you give Lao Tzu a life!" As he spoke, he urged his horse to go straight to Cen Peng.

Around Cen Peng, there were still many county soldiers, and when they saw an enemy general rushing over, people raised their spears and met them.

As soon as the two sides came into contact with each other, Liu Ji's Spring and Autumn Broadsword swept over.

The county soldiers still held shields to block, but the wooden shields in their hands were like paper paste under the blades of the Spring and Autumn Broadsword, sweeping with a knife, the human shield was split, the shield was split in half, and the person was cut off by the waist.

Liu Ji's Spring and Autumn Broadsword, not only the head of the knife is made of fine iron, but even the blade is made of fine iron. But the Spring and Autumn Broadsword, which weighs hundreds of pounds, Liu Ji holds it with one hand, as if he is playing, and he wields it as if it were nothing.
