Chapter 69: Liu Guoneng's Death

Although Liu Guoneng's soldiers were taken by surprise, after all, there were many people. And Luo Rucai's Chinese army also came from afar. Holding on to a breath, even if you lose, it's not so easy to lose.

But the problem is something else.

The news of the destruction of the city in the south cannot be concealed at all, as long as the people who have ears listen carefully to a few ears, they can hear the sound of the fighting in the south city, and the morale of the people guarding the city on the city wall is completely lost.

The city is not only a defensive measure in this era, but also a kind of psychological dependence, I heard that people have already entered the city, and the soldiers who are holding on to three sides, where do they have the heart to hold on again, and someone will flee immediately.

As soon as the escape starts, it can't be stopped.

The three walls suddenly became precarious.

Liu Guoneng's sense of smell on the battlefield is more sensitive than anyone else's, otherwise he wouldn't be alive now, although at this moment his personal guards and Luo Rucai's Chinese army have not yet decided the winner, but in Liu Guoneng's heart, the victory has been decided.

His defeat was assured. At this time, what Liu Guo could think about was not how to save the defeat, but how to keep himself alive.

"Escape?" Liu Guoneng thought: "No, now several city gates have been blocked, and there are Cao Cao and Huanghu's cavalry outside, and they can't escape at all." Even if they rush out, most of them will fall into their hands, and for the sake of today's plan, there is only one way to survive. ”

Liu Guoneng threw down all the guards who were fighting, and took the remaining hundred or so guards straight to the north gate.

As soon as Liu Guoneng ran like this, the guards who were insisting on fighting suddenly lost the morale of resistance and were captured one after another, most of them were veterans of the Shaanxi army, and they were easily incorporated into the army, and there were even some people who were familiar with some people in Cao Cao's army. There is no psychological burden at the time of surrender.

"General, the north gate is where Cao Cao and Huang Hu's home formation is located, and we can't rush out from the north gate?" Liu Guoneng's personal guard said.

"Nonsense." Liu Guoneng said: "I am looking for Cao Cao to surrender. Surrender to the people below Cao Cao, who knows if the people below will be killed. If you want me to ask for credit, only by surrendering directly to Cao Cao can only he spare my life. ”

Anything can only be enjoyed if you are alive. Therefore, Liu Guoneng is very relaxed about things other than his own life.

"Report." When Luo Rucai and Zhang Xianzhong were watching the battle, how did they hear the herald come to report and say: "Breaking through the sky, rushing here with a hundred horsemen out of the north gate." ”

When Zhang Xianzhong heard this, he stood on his horse and looked into the distance, sneered, and said, "There is still a bit of backbone in breaking through the sky." ”

"The child is willing to be the father and get rid of this thief." Zhang Dingguo said.

This battle was led by Luo Rucai's subordinates, so Zhang Xianzhong's subordinates were a little unsettled, and they naturally wanted to snatch the last point of merit when they saw the overall situation.

"I think he has no backbone, he is definitely not here to fight to the death, but to surrender." Luo Rucai said.

Zhang Xianzhong snorted coldly and did not refute, thinking about it, he also knew what kind of person he was.

If there is a bit of toughness in the collapse of the sky, he will not take refuge in the official army, and after he takes refuge in the official army, he will not secretly communicate with them, how can such a person fight to the death when the situation comes to an end? Sure enough, as the two expected, between the two of them talking, they saw a group of people coming over, who is Liu Guoneng who is not breaking into the sky?

I saw Liu Guoneng fall to the ground with a plop, and said: "Little brother, I don't know the time, I am one step late, and I ask the two eldest brothers to forgive me, the younger brother is willing to follow the two eldest brothers, before and after the saddle, there is no regret in nine deaths." ”

"Hmph." Zhang Xianzhong said: "Why don't you become an official? ”

Liu Guoneng flattered and said: "I am the official of the Eight Kings." ”

While currying favor with Zhang Xianzhong, Liu Guoneng secretly said in his heart: "I have a gap with Huang Hu for a long time, whether I can survive or not, the key is not in Huang Hu, but on Cao Cao." Thinking of this, Liu Guoneng took two steps on his knees and said: "Brother Luo, the younger brother is ignorant, and now there is nothing to say, I just ask Brother Luo to spare my life for the sake of fighting side by side outside." ”

Luo Rucai said: "Okay, in that case, you can be a rider under me." ”

"Slow." Zhang Xianzhong said: "Can Liu Guo spare him so easily." ”

Luo Rucai was also a little unhappy, and said secretly in his heart: "Liu Guoneng has already surrendered to me, what do you mean by talking now, is it aimed at Liu Guoneng?" Or against me Cao Cao. ”

But Zhang Xianzhong also has his own ideas.

Zhang Xianzhong and Liu Guoneng are old acquaintances, but the relationship is not very good, and even Liu Guoneng surrendered to the imperial court, there is also a credit to Zhang Xianzhong, without him, Zhang Xianzhong wants to take the opportunity to merge with Liu Guoneng's people.

But Liu Guoneng thought that they were all co-opted, so why should they be under the Yellow Tiger, so he took refuge in the imperial court in anger.

Zhang Xianzhong's original intention was to deal with Liu Guoneng strictly, and he said this before, but it was because of the old grudges between the two sides, but now Zhang Xianzhong said this because of Liu Guoneng's subordinates.

Although Liu Guoneng has been an official of the imperial court for several years and has not fought much, Liu Guoneng still has one or two thousand old foundations. This kind of veteran foundation can greatly narrow the gap between Zhang Xianzhong and Luo Rucai.

When Zhang Xianzhong and Luo Rucai's headquarters were in Sichuan, they only added up to about 7,000 horses, of which Zhang Xianzhong's strength was better than Luo Rucai's. Although the two sides passed through Xiangyang and Nanyang, their strength expanded rapidly. But the two sides are still so old-fashioned people who can really fight, and the rest of the people are just waving their flags and shouting, and it will take some time to form combat effectiveness.

And Zhang Xuan's performance today has impressed Zhang Xianzhong, he originally thought that Zhang Xuan was just an exaggeration, but he didn't expect Zhang Xuan to really do it, so that Luo Rucai's department has one more battalion head that can fight, if Luo Rucai is incorporated into Liu Guoneng's department, Luo Rucai's strength is above Zhang Xianzhong.

The alliance between Zhang Xianzhong and Luo Rucai is based on the fact that Zhang Xianzhong's strength is stronger than Luo Rucai, Zhang Xianzhong can condescendingly respect Luo Rucai, sit side by side with each other, but he will never put the initiative of the coalition in Luo Rucai's hands.

How can he, Zhang Xianzhong, be able to condescend to others.

Luo Rucai said: "No matter how old Liu does something wrong, he is also an old brother in Shaanxi, so let's do it, I don't want the captives who surrendered this time, as long as Liu Guoneng is there." ”

"Brother Luo said this, it seems that I, Zhang, am a person who forgets his righteousness." Zhang Xianzhong said loudly: "I, Zhang, dominate the world, and the biggest loss is caused by a traitor like Liu Guoneng. ”

Thinking of the battle of Onyx Mountain, Zhang Xianzhong still gritted his teeth and said: "I killed Liu Guoneng just to let the people of the world know, don't want to sway left and right between the court and the righteous army, if you are forced to survive, you can forgive." However, it is absolutely intolerable to come to take refuge in such a defeated and poor situation. ”

said a good word, so that Luo Rucai didn't know how to do it.

Zhang Xianzhong waved his hand, Zhang Dingguo took a bow and shot an arrow, and an arrow shot at Liu Guoneng, Liu Guoneng didn't have time to dodge at all, and was pierced by this arrow.

When Luo Rucai saw that Liu Guoneng was dead, his face immediately burst with anger.

Luo Rucai is the most moral in the rivers and lakes, no matter which way of friends come to vote, he will take care of them. And now that Liu Guoneng surrendered, Luo Rucai had already agreed, and was killed by Zhang Xianzhong, where did he put Luo Rucai's face, and how should he face his friends on the rivers and lakes in the future.

However, Luo Rucai quickly controlled his emotions. It has been so that there is no way to undo it. Isn't it possible to have a fight with Zhang Xianzhong?

"Now that Xinyang City has fallen, I will enter the city first." Luo Rucai said politely, shook his hand and left. Luo Rucai's subordinates followed Luo Rucai to Xinyang City, as Luo Rucai said, Xinyang City has become the world of the righteous army at this moment.

Although Zhang Xianzhong and Luo Rucai didn't say anything, both sides knew that the honeymoon period of cooperation with each other was over. Where we go in the future depends on the choices we make between each other. Today's Liu Guoneng incident is just a fuse.
