Chapter 163, besieging Zhang Xiu

Because Zhao Yun used a giant engineering ladder to capture Tongguan, almost none of the equipment used to defend the city was used, which came in handy.

Xu Huang ordered all the people and immediately drove the team to Anyi secretly.

The Bishan military camp is now under the command of Tai Shi Ci, and after getting the news, Tai Shi Ci hurriedly ordered, "All assemble and put down the matter at hand." ”

The heralds rushed away, and for a while, the drums and trumpets sounded in unison, and the 40,000 Han soldiers quickly assembled in the Beiying school field in the blink of an eye.

At a glance, the armor is shining, the spear is dazzling, a dazzling cold light is terrifying, the 40,000 soldiers are neatly clean, the quiet crows are silent, like a towering cold-faced steel armor jungle, and a sky-high killing aura instantly permeates the entire school field.

Tai Shi Ci walked to the top of a boulder, looked around, and nodded with satisfaction, "Soldiers, do you know why the lord left us here?" ”

"I don't know." Someone shouted.

Tai Shi Ci's face sank, "The lord is not for anything else, but he is worried that someone will take the opportunity to make trouble and spoil the lord's big affairs, and now I have received conclusive news, Hedong Taishou Wangyi took advantage of the lord's army to send troops outside, raised 20,000 troops, to seize Tongguan, cut off the lord's retreat, Hanoi Taishou Zhang Yang will also invade Luoyang, I ask you, can we let them make nonsense?" ”

"Can't!"

Everyone shouted in unison, and tens of thousands of people shouted together, shaking the world and magnificent.

"So what do we do?"

"Kill—"

The soldiers did not hesitate, they were decisive and crisp, and they all widened their eyes and were murderous.

"Okay, it's all good, my Tai Shici has always had clear grievances, people don't offend me, I don't offend people, since Zhang Yang and Wang Yi dare to take the initiative to provoke us, we must not spare them."

………………

"Why hasn't my uncle come back yet?"

Seeing that the night was already deep, and it had been two hours since Zhang Ji entered the city, Zhang Ji was relieved, and the more he thought about it, the more uneasy he felt.

Suddenly, a sound of horses' hooves sounded in the distance, Zhang Xiu was alert, and hurriedly leaned over to put his ears on the ground, sure enough, the sound became more and more dense, and he heard it clearly, it was the sound of horses' hooves, and there were not a few.

"Assemble at once and light the torches."

Walking out of the big tent in a few steps, Zhang Xiu ordered loudly at the top of his voice.

They were ordered to be stationed on the banks of the Weishui River, and when the torches were lit, even the river behind them was reflected in a fiery red, as if a huge fire dragon was about to take off from the water at any time.

The sound of horses' hooves was urgent, rapidly approaching, and it came from three directions at the same time, Zhang Xiu's face became heavier and heavier, "This is outside Chang'an City, who would be so bold and dare to spread wild at the feet of the Son of Heaven." ”

"Hula!"

One stone's throw away, the other party also lit up the torches, east, west, south, three fire dragons like a fan, quickly approaching, just a blink of an eye, Guo Yan's cavalry appeared in front of Zhang Xiu.

It was Guo Yan himself who led the team, and when he got closer, Guo Yan grabbed the reins violently, slowed down, and walked forward.

His right hand held an iron spear, but his left hand was carrying a blood-dripping package, less than thirty steps away from Zhang Xiu, Guo Yan stopped the horse to look, and threw it casually, the package crossed an arc in the air, and landed in front of Zhang Xiu, Zhang Xiu looked down, his heart sank suddenly, he didn't think much about it, he hurriedly bent down to open the package, and if he didn't look at it, he just didn't look at it, after reading it, he almost blew up his heart, liver and lungs, and the soldiers next to him saw it clearly, and they all gasped.

"General—" Many people exclaimed.

What was in the package was Zhang Ji's head, drenched in blood, Zhang Ji glared angrily, he couldn't look at him, and the incision on his neck was flat, it can be seen that his head was cut off with a knife.

Zhang Xiu's eyes immediately turned blood-red, he clenched the gun in his hand hard, gritted his teeth and roared, "Guo Yan, you killed your uncle, is it right?" ”

Guo Yan's tone was arrogant, and he let out a contemptuous sneer with disdain, "Zhang Ji fornicated with Zhao Yun, intended to usurp, and died innocently, Zhang Xiuer and the others did not quickly dismount and surrender, I can spare you from dying, if you are stubborn, this day in the coming year will be your death day." ”

Zhang Xiu screamed angrily, "Dog thief, I'm going to kill you." With that, Zhang Xiu turned over his mount, shook the silk reins, and went straight to Guo Yan to kill him, Hu Che'er and the others did not show weakness, and they all rushed up.

Zhang Xiu's soldiers and horses were only five or six thousand people, and they were all trapped on the bank of Weishui, Guo Yan didn't pay attention to it at all, and sneered, "Since you insist on looking for death, don't blame my subordinates for being ruthless, come, kill, anyone who dares to resist will be killed." ”

"Kill—" Guo Yan's soldiers shouted loudly, and they all urged their horses to kill, and a scuffle suddenly opened on the shore of Weishui.

Zhang Xiu struggled to urge the horse to rush to Guo Yan's horse, without saying a word, raise the gun and stab, the two of you come and go, fighting in one place, Zhang Xiu fought bravely, plus revenge, like a crazy beast, but Guo Xiu is not an idle person, fierce battle for a long time, at most a draw, not only that, Zhang Xiu's generals, deep siege, casualties are very heavy, by Guo Bian brought by the cavalry repeatedly rushed to kill, the head is rolling, blood rain splashing, not a moment, has been dyed Weishui into blood.

Shouting the dead, fierce battles, screams, the impact of blades, shouting and killing, all mixed together, Zhang Xiu's soldiers were deeply encircled, plus the main general was killed, the morale was low, morale was frustrated, it was not an opponent at all, and after fighting for a while, he hurriedly fled in all directions, and the formation became more and more chaotic.

On the bank of the river within a radius of hundreds of meters, in less than half an hour, there were layers of corpses and bloody war horses, and even the flags were tattered one by one, and the warm bloody gas was blown around by the wind, so strong that people couldn't breathe.

Zhang Xiu's side, there were only two or three hundred people left, still resisting stubbornly, and the general Hu Che'er was also covered in injuries, as if he had just come out of the pool of blood.

Zhang Xiu is not much better, Guo Yan has already retreated to the side, waves of cavalry go forward one after another, constantly besieging and killing Zhang Xiu, it is very difficult to take a breath, Guo Yan wants to use the tactics of the sea of people to get rid of Zhang Xiu.

The injury became more and more serious, Zhang Xiu felt dizzy and swollen, the gun in his hand became heavier and heavier, and he was unwilling, "Could it be that I am going to die here?" ”

Guo Yan teased with interest, "Zhang Xiu, I heard that your aunt is good-looking, quite a bit beautiful, ahahaha...... Don't worry, when you die, I will take good care of your uncle and nephew. ”
