Chapter 720: Cheng Yin's Death
"What the military advisor said is reasonable. The matter of recruiting troops and horses will be left to you. ”
"Don't worry, if Wen Bufan and the dog thief dare to come, he is willing to be the pioneer and take his dog's head for the lord!"
As soon as Zhang Lu's words fell, his face was distorted, and the young general with gloomy eyes immediately attended the prayer. Zhang Luding looked at it, and the corners of his mouth suddenly curled, revealing a sinister smile. This person is the entire Liangzhou defeated by Wenhan Ma Chao, Ma Chao and Ma Dai escaped from Jincheng at the beginning, all the way to the death, starry night rush, non-stop, until the meridian valley dared to rest, and was later discovered by Zhang Lu's soldiers and horses, in order to save his life, Ma Chao temporarily put into Zhang Lu's command.
Ma Chao's hatred for Wen Han can be described as a common thing. Ma Chao thought about it day and night, how to make a comeback and kill Wen Han, a mortal enemy. And now is a good time for Ma Chao to take revenge!
"Haha. There is Meng Qi here. How extraordinary I am! Meng Qi rest assured, if Wen Bufan really dares to send troops to invade my Hanzhong, I will make you the vanguard of the army! ”
Zhang Lu Zhuhong's big mouth grinned and laughed darkly. Ma Chao was overjoyed to hear it, although he had no respect for Zhang Lu, the lord who was neither a ghost nor a ghost, but he still pretended to be respectful and thanked.
"Thank you, lord!"
This Jin Ma Chao, who was famous in the past, is now under his command, Zhang Lu is very embarrassed in his heart, and appeases Ma Chao, the two of them are hypocritical, and they will disperse soon after.
After that, according to Zhang Lu's order, Yan Pu recruited more than 20,000 new soldiers in Hanzhong, which were trained by Zhang Wei and Ma Chao, and at this time, Hanzhong plus Zhang Lu's original 30,000 soldiers and horses, a total of 50,000 troops.
Zhang Wei and Ma Chao trained the recruits for months. Suddenly, a soldier came to report, the Han hussar general, the champion Hou Wenhan led the order of the imperial court, sent 30,000 troops from Hedong to conquer Zhang Lu in Hanzhong, at this time Wenhan's army has rushed into Yongzhou Fufeng County!
However, it was said that the army under Wen Han's command had finished recuperating in Fufeng, and the grain, grass, baggage, and armaments were all complete under Zhong Xuan's deployment. Wen Han then continued his march and marched towards Hanzhong. Among them, there were three teams, the front vanguard Pang De, Cheng Yin, Wen Han led Zhao Yun and Xu Huang in the center, and Zhang Liao and Zhou Cang escorted grain and grass in the rear.
There have long been detailed reports to Hanzhong. Zhang Lu was shocked and quickly summoned his subordinates to discuss the strategy of resisting the enemy. Yan Pu's face was flat, his eyes were shining, and he admonished without hurrying.
"The most dangerous in Han is as bad as Yangping Pass, but on the left and right of the pass, by the mountains and forests, under more than ten fences, to meet the enemy's extraordinary army. The lord is in Hanning, and he allocates more grain and grass for the army. Wen Bufan's soldiers and horses have traveled a long way to come, if there is an opportunity, just let the generals and soldiers in the army lead the army to sneak attack, you can win a victory first, in order to shock the morale of the army! ”
"What the military advisor said is very good, follow it immediately!"
Yan Pu's determination made Zhang Lu feel a little more determined. That is, according to what he said, send the general Ma Chao, as well as Ma Dai, Yang Ang, Yang Ren and other generals, allocate 10,000 troops, and set off immediately. Ma Chao got the order, because of the anger and hatred in his heart, the fighting spirit was high, he led the army to set off that night, hurried in the starry night, came to Yangping Pass, and surrounded the mountains and forests in various dangerous places, and even went down more than ten village gates, and the next village has been decided. Ma Chao then ordered the soldiers and horses to rest, recuperate, and wait for the enemy.
Pang De and Cheng Yin's front army arrived soon, Wenyang Pingguan had been prepared, and did not dare to attack rashly, Pang De and Cheng Yin discussed it, and then went down to the village fifteen miles away from the pass.
It was night, and the soldiers of the Wen army were tired and rested. Pang De was afraid that Zhang Lujun would take advantage of this sneak attack, so he asked Cheng Yin to lead a group of soldiers and horses to guard behind the wall, just in case. How do you know that Cheng Yin has traveled a long way, physically and mentally exhausted, and Pang De is a new general, when Han Sui and Ma Teng competed, Cheng Yin and Pang De had a lot of confrontations. Therefore, Cheng Yin has always been unwilling to be so reused by Wen Han that Pang De can be used. At that moment, Pang De ordered, Cheng Yin received the order in his mouth, but he didn't pay attention to it in his heart, and sent dozens of cavalry to patrol behind the village and did things hastily.
In the third watch of the night, suddenly the sound of arrows breaking through the air sounded in the back of the village. Dozens of arrows unwittingly took the lives of more than a dozen civilian cavalrymen under the cover of the night, and the rest were dragged off their horses with hooks and secretly killed.
The Dazhai of the Wen army was safe, and most of the soldiers of the Wen army were asleep due to fatigue. Suddenly, a raging fire rushed out from behind the village, and then it sounded again and again, and the earth-shattering shouts of killing. Ma Chao and Yang Ang each led an army to kill and rob the village from two ways. Pound woke up and hurried to get on his horse, and saw that in front of him, the soldiers of the army were in chaos and fled in all directions. Cheng Yin's face was pale, and he hurriedly put on his armor and got on his horse, and hurried to Pang De's side and shouted.
"General Pang is in a bad situation. Zhang Lujun really came to rob the camp!! ”
"Bastard!! I'm not teaching you to lead the army behind the wall! Why did Zhang Lujun succeed!!! ”
"I !!!"
Pound was stunned and shouted. Cheng Yin was immediately stopped by Pang De, and at this moment, suddenly there was an earth-shattering shouting sound in front of the village, and Ma Dai and Yang Ren led the army to enter from the front of the village. With the soldiers of Ma Chao and Yang Ang in the back, the Wen army panicked and was unstoppable, and was killed with a head and a rat, a chicken flying and a dog jumping, and was blindly slaughtered by Zhang Lujun.
"Hurry up and lead the army back first!! It's up to me to cut it off!!! ”
Seeing this, Pang De couldn't care less about scolding Cheng Yin. At present, the self-army is in chaos, and there is no power to resist at all, so staying here more will only add more casualties. If you can evacuate earlier, you can save a lot of losses. Cheng Yin hurriedly received the order and gathered five or six thousand soldiers to kill all the way. As for Pound, he led a group of soldiers and horses to block the rear of the strongest attack.
Pang De hurriedly raised the knife and Pegasus to kill, danced the lion's head and big knife impenetrable, and killed a team of attacking Zhang Lu's soldiers and horses. Nearly 1,000 soldiers of the Wen Army were able to take advantage of the situation to escape. Pound is bare-faced, invincible, like a god in the sky.
"Pang Lingming, you traitor!!"
At this moment, a loud shout suddenly rang out behind Pound. Pound's face changed drastically, and he hurriedly raised his knife to block back. There was a loud 'bang', and the blade of the lion-headed machete in Pound's hand was hit by a gun that was as fast as lightning. The momentum was so great that the lion's head machete trembled incessantly. Pound's eyes showed a little different color, and when he looked at it, he saw Ma Chao's hideous face and gritted his teeth, as if he had a great hatred for Pound.
In order to report the safety of the Ma family, Pang De had no choice but to join Wen Han, and then Wen Han treated him as his own and treated him like a family member, and there was no false feeling in this. Later, Wen Han heard that Ma Yi and Pang De were fighting in Jincheng that day. Wen Han even came forward for Pound to propose marriage to Ma Teng for Pound. And Ma Teng, the old fox, has actually seen Pound's feelings for Ma Yi for a long time, and Pound is the protection of the Ma clan at this time, and Ma Teng naturally agrees for the heart of Pound. After that, Wen Han came forward for Pang De and rewarded dozens of beauties to Han Jin, so that Han Jin took a leave of absence from Ma Yi.
And the forces under Han Jin's command have long been secretly cut down by Wen Han. However, for Han Jin, a gentlemanly disciple, as long as he can live his fairy-like life in a dashing manner, everything can be abandoned, including the great enmity of the past. What's more, even if Han Jin was unwilling, he didn't have the strength to resist at all.
So Pound finally fulfilled his wish for many years and took Ma Yi openly. What made him even happier was that although Ma Yi and Han Jin had the name of husband and wife, they were not husband and wife. Since then, Pound has been sincere and loyal to Wen Han, and is willing to go to the trouble for Wen Han.
Of course, after this, Wen Han once made amends with Cheng Gongying. Cheng Gongying's reaction was indifferent, he was already disheartened with Han Jin, as long as Wen Han could make Han Jin rich and prosperous all his life and enjoy his old age in peace. Cheng Gongying is satisfied.
At this time, although Pang De saw Ma Chao again, although there were ripples in his heart, he knew that he and Ma Chao were already hostile. Pound slashed with a knife, swept away the brocade silver lion tooth spear, and rode his horse to take the road and leave. Ma Chao shouted loudly, chased after him, and insulted repeatedly. Pound didn't answer, and drove away.
Ma Chao saw Pound gradually moving away, and his anger and hatred in his heart could not be eliminated, so he held down the gun, put the arrow on his bow, and shot three arrows at Pound in a row. Pound heard the sound of arrows, and flashed sharply, but avoided them. At this time, most of the soldiers of the civil army in the camp had escaped, and those who failed to escape had been surrounded by Zhang Lujun's army, and it was difficult to save them.
Seeing this, Pound didn't dare to entangle anymore, and hurriedly escaped all the way. When Ma Chao saw Pang De fleeing away, he vented his anger and hatred on the soldiers of the Wen army, and ordered all of them to be slaughtered, leaving no one behind! Thousands of soldiers of the Wen Army were killed by Zhang Lujun, and the scene was very tragic.
The vanguard of the Wen army was defeated, and Cheng Yin and Pang De led the remnants of the army to flee back to see Wen Han one after another. When Wen Han learned that the vanguard army was defeated and that nearly 3,000 of his 10,000 soldiers had died, he was furious and angrily scolded Pang De and Cheng Yin.
"You have waited for the two of you to march for many years, don't you know that if the soldiers are tired and tired from traveling far away, they must guard against robbery? How not to prepare? ”
Cheng Yin was so frightened that he trembled for a while, lest Pang De accuse him, so he hurriedly scrambled to be the first to sue.
"Forgive your sins! Will the last general not know such truths! The last general had warned General Pang to be careful of robbing the camp. General Pang didn't listen to the words of the last general and didn't make preparations, so he was defeated! ”
Pang De's bare face stared, and his eyes widened, this Cheng Yin actually made something out of nothing, spurting blood, and slandered his own mistakes on his head.
"Treacherous villain!! Obviously, I asked you to fortify behind the wall, but you didn't listen to my orders, and you did something hastily! At the moment, you dare to turn black and white upside down and slander me!! ”
Pound's face was angry, like a red lion angry, which frightened Cheng Yin's heart, thinking that the matter had come to this, if he didn't bite to the end, he would be retaliated by Pound in the future. Then he quickly thought of the leading generals he saw in Zhang Lujun today, and he was immediately overjoyed, his eyes lit up, and he said anxiously.
"Don't listen to this traitor! At the end of today, the general who will see the robbery camp is none other than Nama Mengqi! Pang Lingming originally belonged to Ma Mengqi, and he has always obeyed Ma Mengqi's words, and he must have had an affair with him! ”
"You!! If Cheng Yin dares to say half a word of nonsense, I will definitely kill you!!! Lord!! I, Pang Lingming, am brave and loyal, and I have no dissent. If the lord doesn't believe it, Pang is willing to lead troops to fight in the coming day, and take the head of Ma Mengqi to prove my heart!! ”
Pound's eyes were on fire, although he didn't want to be an enemy of Ma Chao in his heart, but as a minister, he should put the interests of the king first in everything. Pound was willing to kill his relatives in righteousness, just to prove his heart.
Wen Han squinted at the knife, and his gaze slowly moved in front of Pang De and Cheng Yin. Cheng Yin had a ghost in his heart, so he naturally didn't dare to look at it directly. Pound was calm in his heart and did not avoid it. Suddenly, Wen Han's face changed, and he shouted loudly.
"Left and right! Don't push this traitor out of me and behead him! ”
Wen Han pointed at Cheng Yin with one hand and suddenly ordered. When the two soldiers heard the sound, they quickly grabbed Cheng Yin's arms. Cheng Yin was so frightened that he cried on the spot, crying with a sad face, kowtowing and kneeling, and even screaming that he was wronged.
