Chapter 364: The Strategy of Retreating as Advance
"Brothers, rush, capture Gan Ning alive and defeat the Jinfan thief."
At the foot of the mountain, the shouts of killing became louder and louder.
Dressed in short black clothes and armed with steel knives, the thieves dispelled the darkness around them with crackling torches and rushed up the hill quickly. At the very front of these water thieves, there are two burly men. One of them had a round waist and broad shoulders, the light in the tiger's eyes flashed, and an iron-backed knife in his hand, the sound was like a bell, and he walked briskly, and rushed forward quickly.
This person is Zhou Tai, the big leader of the Nine Rivers and Thieves.
The other was named Jiang Qin, tall and thin, carrying a knife, and followed closely behind Zhou Tai.
Along the way, there were withdrawn soldiers stationed at the dock who struggled to resist, but Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin suddenly attacked, and it was internal and external collusion, and the momentum was like a bamboo, killing the brothers under Gan Ning's command It was difficult to resist.
The knife edge, low dripping blood.
Falling to the ground, it looks like a red plum blossom.
Zhou Tai's eyes looked excited, and the corners of his mouth hooked up a thick smile.
After this battle, there were no more Jinfan thieves on the river, and only the nine rivers and thieves were left. Without Gan Ning's existence, endless financial resources will flow into Zhou Tai's hands.
When the time comes, Zhou Tai's strength will be stronger.
As soon as he thought of being able to kill Gan Ning, or subdue Gan Ning, and then annex Gan Ning's strength, Zhou Tai's heart was hot.
"Jiang Qin, well done this time, your kid's plan is really good."
Zhou Tai spoke loudly as he ran.
The voice echoed like a bell.
The corners of Jiang Qin's mouth hooked up with a smile, and he replied: "This time, Gan Ning will definitely die without a place to be buried." ”
The two of them talked, and hurried away with their men.
……
On the mountain, outside the village.
Wang Lei and Gan Ning resisted with drunken soldiers, although these soldiers were a little drunk and had low combat effectiveness, but after pouring basins of cold water, they were still much more sober. In addition, when the enemy killed, all the drunken intent disappeared one by one, and was replaced by a strong fighting spirit.
The so-called peers are resentful, not to mention, Gan Ning and Zhou Tai have always been discordant.
Both sides are people who cross the river, begging for a living on the river. The so-called Wen Wu is the first, Wu Wu is the second, Gan Ning and Zhou Tai also want to be superior, and the same is true for the brothers under their command.
Hundreds of brothers under Gan Ning's command carried knives and waited in place.
In a hurry, Gan Ning only made the soldiers sober up, and he didn't even prepare weapons such as bows and arrows.
Rush to the battle, but it can only be so.
"It's coming! I'm all ready, ready to fight. ”
Gan Ning's eyes condensed, and he said in a loud voice.
In front of the eye, torches flashed, shouts of killing rang out, and countless black shadows rushed up.
Gan Ning took a bow and arrows and shot at the people who rushed up.
It's a pity that this is a drop in the bucket after all. The few bows and arrows he shot barely killed some of the enemies, but in a flash, the other party was already in front of him, and he couldn't stop the other party's progress.
Seeing that the distance was less than ten zhang, the big knife in Gan Ning's hand was raised and roared: "Kill!" ”
With an order, Gan Ning had already been killed.
All the brothers under his command also quickly poured out to meet the people under Zhou Tai's command.
Wang Lei stayed out of the matter and did not participate in the killing. He was responsible for observing the situation, to check the situation of the retreat in the rear, to determine the time of the retreat. Once Wang Lei is caught in a fight, he can't coordinate the situation, so he can only watch from the sidelines.
Outside the hall of Dazhai, the two sides have already clashed.
Gan Ning held a big knife to meet Zhou Tai, his eyes widened angrily, and he slashed one after another, like a tiger out of the cage, becoming more and more fierce. On the other side, Zhou Tai was the same, he and Gan Ning had a hard time, and he didn't have any intention of dodging.
The two clashed, and on the other side, Jiang Qin led his men and kept rushing to kill.
Under the repeated charges, the people under Gan Ning's command suffered heavy casualties.
After all, it is a drunk person, and even if he comes to his senses, his strength and speed cannot keep up. A face is already a judgment. The people under Zhou Tai's command became more and more fierce, and although the brothers under Gan Ning's command suffered heavy casualties, they did not take a step back. With a little more delay, it becomes easier for those who evacuate, and they all know the situation, so none of them retreat.
Wang Lei looked at the situation on the battlefield, and his eyes became more and more solemn.
This battle is really a hard battle!
Time passed, and most of the people under Gan Ning's command were killed and injured.
However, not a single one retreated!
The situation is tragic!
There was a disgusting smell in the air.
Fight to the death!
Everyone, fight to the death!
The battlefield confrontation became more bloody and ferocious.
Gan Ning fought hard against Zhou Tai, and after repeated battles, his physical strength was consumed, and Zhou Tai was superb in martial arts, and his knife skills were even more outstanding. Several times in a row, Gan Ning was in danger, and it was the people around him who rescued him to save him from danger. Zhou Tai's eyes were excited, and he grinned loudly: "Gan Ning, as long as you surrender, I will spare your life, and even give you the right second only to me." ”
"Impossible!"
Gan Ning had a cold face and fierce eyes.
The man in front of him killed so many of his brothers, and hatred was knotted, and he swore to die!
Zhou Tai took a deep breath and yelled in a cold tone: "If you seek death yourself, you can't blame me." ”
The knife in his hand became more and more ferocious, pressing Gan Ning.
The two fought, and Gan Ning was defeated one after another, and he was already in a state of exhaustion. However, Gan Ning swept his eyes and saw that the deaths and injuries of his brothers were even more tragic, and they were still fighting to the death when they were wounded, so he gritted his teeth and persevered. These people follow Gan Ning, they are all diehard loyalists of Gan Ning, and they would rather die than take a step back.
Wang Lei admired in his heart, Gan Ning is indeed capable.
It's not easy to make the people under your command fight for their lives!
At this time, a brother from the cottage came quickly, stood beside Wang Lei, and said in a low voice: "My lord, the old and weak in the village have retreated, and it is already an empty village." ”
Wang Lei immediately ordered: "Mingjin, retreat!" ”
"Bell! Clang!! ”
The sound of gongs sounded on the battlefield and spread throughout the mountain.
Gan Ning breathed a sigh of relief in his heart and yelled: "Withdraw!" Retreat immediately. Every knife in Gan Ning's hand was a lifeless swing, and the continuous lifeless attacks temporarily forced Zhou Tai back, and then retreated.
The brothers under his command no longer resisted, and threw off their feet and withdrew like a tidal wave.
Seeing this, Zhou Tai shouted: "The Jinfan thief is defeated, kill it with me!" ”
Jiang Qin also shouted: "Kill, kill the Jinfan thief." ”
The roaring and cheering of the two made the six or seven hundred people under their command more and more fierce, constantly chasing and killing Gan Ning and his party. Wang Lei and Gan Ning led the army to withdraw, Wang Lei looked at Gan Ning, saw that Gan Ning was panting, and said: "Xingba, can you still hold on?" ”
Gan Ning gritted his teeth and said: "The battle has just begun, I can hold on!" ”
A touch of coldness and hatred appeared in Gan Ning's eyes. He listened to the shouts of killing behind him, and the screams of his brothers behind him, and his heart was cold. Dead brothers, you can't die in vain.
Blood debt must be paid in blood!
Gan Ning gritted his teeth and endured, ignoring the scars on his body, and continued to retreat quickly.
Under the moonlit night, the soldiers under Gan Ning's command became fewer and fewer, but the speed of retreat did not slow down in the slightest. Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin had long wanted to take down Gan Ning, and when they found an opportunity, they naturally would not give up, just like a dog that smelled the smell of bones and bit it.
All the way, time passes.
In the early hours of the morning, Wang Lei's eyes became brighter and brighter, and he was about to arrive at his destination.
The final battle is coming.
