Being provoked like this, Zhang Shihui really has a feeling of going berserk. It can be said that if it weren't for Zhang Yang's obstruction now, Zhang Shihui would definitely have pounced on Wu Kang and the others.

But because of Zhang Yang's obstruction, Zhang Shihui, who calmed down, suppressed this anger a little. Because he knew that if he passed, then Wu Kang and the others would definitely leave him behind even if they fought to the end together.

Even if he had confidence in himself, under the circumstance that the risk and the gain were not proportional, it was obvious that no reasonable person would take such a risk.

So in the face of Wu Kang's provocation, Zhang Shihui just looked at him from seven steps away, and then with a gloomy face, he ordered: "Kill!" ”

"Kill!" There is a saying that 'the lord worries about the humiliation of the ministers, and the lord humiliates the ministers to death', although for more than 10,000 black-clothed soldiers, Zhang Shihui is not the lord. But for the guards guarding Zhang Shihui's side, Zhang Shihui, who has been supporting them for a long time, is their lord.

Therefore, after Zhang Shihui gave an order, because he failed to fulfill his duties, the personal guards who were full of humiliation and anger couldn't help roaring angrily and pounced on Wu Kang and the others like wolves.

"Ah!!h When Wu Kang and the others saw this, they were still scarred, and there were only more than 300 soldiers left beside them. But in the face of the siege of these black-clothed soldiers, he was still not afraid, and he roared like thunder, and he couldn't help but lead people to rush in the direction of Zhang Shihui again.

However, at this time of the fight, Wu Kang and the others were already at the end of the crossbow.

Under the siege of several times the black-clothed soldiers, although it was only a short distance of seven steps and a distance of three zhang, such a distance was still like a moat for them at this time.

Seven, six, five...... At this time, it can be said that every step forward costs them dozens of lives.

But even so, they are still fighting and fighting. That kind of madness is like a tiger trapped in a trap, even if he knows that he will die, he is still 'trapped beast fighting' to the end.

So in the face of such an enemy, even Zhang Shihui, who has a high regard for himself, can't help but have a sense of admiration.

Therefore, when he saw that Wu Kang and the others were only a hundred people left, they stopped their shaky footsteps again four and a half steps away. Zhang Shihui looked at them, and couldn't help but ask aloud: "That man, say, what's your name?" ”

"Hahahaha, grandpa's name is Wu Kang, what, do you want to fight with grandpa and me. Hahahaha! ”

Wu Kang, who was covered in blood and even blinded in one eye, couldn't help but say such arrogant words even when he used all his strength to stand with his sword.

But this time, Zhang Shihui did not feel angry. In the face of Wu Kang's provocation, he just nodded silently, and then said loudly: "Wu Kang, I remember your name, you are a true husband, I will bury you when you die." Saying this, Zhang Shihui, who was expressionless, waved his hand again, and couldn't help but give a kill order to Wu Kang and others.

But at this time, what Zhang Shihui and the others never expected was that Wu Kang and others, who were all at the end of the crossbow and could be killed in just a moment, quickly took out more than ten pairs of small crossbows from their arms under such circumstances.

Yes, it's a hand crossbow. It turned out that from the very beginning, Wu Kang, who was brave on the outside but cunning on the inside, was ready to assassinate in this way.

So just before Zhang Shihui and the others had time to react, more than ten pairs of small crossbows shot deadly arrows at Zhang Shihui, who was only four and a half steps away from them and was still riding on a war horse.

"General be careful!" Zhang Yang, who had been guarding Zhang Shihui's side, and several guards shouted, because they were too frightened, their minds were blank, and they couldn't help but subconsciously block Zhang Shihui with their bodies at the first time.

But in just four and a half steps, how can a person's reaction be comparable to an arrow.

So when he heard a muffled sound, Zhang Shihui, who was riding on a war horse, gritted his teeth and shook it twice, and he couldn't help but fall off the war horse.

"General! Checkmate! ......Seeing this, Zhang Yang and the others, whose heads were already blank, were suddenly confused.

At this time, they couldn't even take care of Wu Kang and the others, who were only a stone's throw away from them, and even only needed more than ten black-clothed sergeants to take down. Instead, he rolled the saddle and dismounted at the first time, and came to Zhang Shihui's side with a roll.

In just four and a half steps, he was shot by more than ten pairs of crossbows, even though Zhang Shihui was wearing the best plate armor. But the arrows still injured Zhang Shihui, although the fatal parts such as cheeks and neck were fine, but Zhang Shihui still fell into a coma.

"The leader of the black-clothed thieves, Zhang Shihui, is dead, and the black-clothed thieves are defeated! The leader of the black-clothed thieves, Zhang Shihui, is dead, and the black-clothed thieves are defeated! ......" Suddenly, when Zhang Yang and the others crawled to the unconscious Zhang Shihui's side, Wu Kang's side couldn't help but roar in unison.

And it was precisely because of their shouting, chaos and panic that they couldn't help but begin to permeate this black-clothed army in an instant.

"Zhang Shihui, the leader of the black-clothed thieves, is dead! Zhang Shihui, the leader of the black-clothed thieves, is dead! ......" was extremely loud. So much so that at this time, such a roar even overpowered the sound of fighting on the battlefield.

Therefore, faintly, Wang Shijiu and others, who were fighting with Li Bo and others on the other side, couldn't help but hear such a voice.

So in an instant, under the desperate counterattack of Li Bo and others, such news was like the last straw that broke the camel's back. The great rout that Wang Shijiu and the others had never expected happened like this.

"Zhang Shihui, the leader of the black-clothed thieves, is dead! Zhang Shihui, the leader of the black-clothed thieves, is dead! "For a time, the battlefield was full of such shouts. So with this shout, because of the uncertainty of Zhang Shihui's life and death, the black-clothed sergeant who had no intention of fighting in his heart couldn't help but be easily defeated by Li Bo and others.

Then, retreat, chaos, and escape, words that had never appeared in the hearts of the soldiers in black, actually happened.

"General, it's over, the general trend has gone. For now, let's protect our forces and confirm the safety of the general in time. After the battle, Wang Nineteen's personal guard commander pulled Wang Nineteen, who still wanted to fight with the enemy, and couldn't help but persuade him like this.

At this time, Wang Shijiu, who was already red-eyed, heard such advice from his subordinates, and looked at his subordinates who had frightened eyes flashing in their eyes. It is also understood that they really lost this battle.

Therefore, after Yang Tian let out a painful roar, Wang 19 had no choice but to gather his troops and horses and began to evacuate and flee.

And at this time, in such a situation of defeat. It can be said that even if Zhang Shihui is intact now, it is estimated that it will be difficult to recover the situation.

After all, after nearly a day's work, and a late night march at night, and a fierce battle with the enemy, I finally heard the news that my master was going to be killed. Even the well-trained black-clad sergeants had already collapsed physically and mentally.

So at this time, under the attack of the enemy, all these black-clad sergeants thought about was to flee for their lives.

But at this time, the only thing that can make people feel good is that. Because of the long-term training and subtle influence, even when fleeing for his life, the black-clothed sergeant has maintained the basic structure.

Although it is still inevitable to throw away the armor when I am chasing and killing, the kind of thing that is chased and killed endlessly and ambushes for dozens of miles has not happened.

Moreover, because the officers and soldiers also suffered a huge blow, the 800 soldiers and horses of Commander Wu Kang, including himself, were completely wiped out, and the 5,000 soldiers and horses of Commander Li Bo also suffered great losses.

Therefore, after chasing and killing for two hours, Li Bo also gathered his soldiers and horses, and returned to the Suizhou checkpoint again with the booty.

But even so, in the afternoon of the next day, after the troops and the soldiers and horses of Commander Zhang Mingtong converged. On the third day, after the post-war count. In the first battle of Suizhou, there were more than 14,000 black-clothed soldiers, but the total casualties still reached an astonishing 4,300. Including Ma Lei, a total of 3,000 households were killed, five deputy 1,000 households were killed, and 34 were killed by 100 households. Even the main general was seriously injured and unconscious.

Therefore, this battle can also be said to be the biggest and most tragic defeat suffered by the Black Army since its formation.

Therefore, after suffering such a defeat, the morale of the black-clothed army ordered to conquer De'an Mansion and the soldiers couldn't help but fall into a complete slump.

……

Another day passed, and it was May 28th. On this day, in a simple camp 100 miles away from the Suizhou checkpoint, a group of black-clothed army generals led by Zhang Mingtong for the time being couldn't help but discuss the question of where to go.

"I've already reported the matter here to the lord as it is, and I think it won't take a few days for the lord to give instructions." In the camp tent belonging to Zhang Mingtong, Zhang Mingtong, the official of ten thousand households, sat on the main seat, looked at the dejected generals under the tent, and couldn't help but say such words.

And when the generals heard his words, they couldn't help but look up at Zhang Mingtong. However, after a long sigh of silence, these defeated generals didn't say anything more.

Although at this time, some of them were indeed worried about what kind of punishment they would receive after returning from defeat. But at this time, no one wants to talk about it.

After all, when the enemy's strength was far inferior to his own, he was defeated by the enemy and discarded a large number of weapons and equipment, and the main generals were rewarded for this, and he has not even been able to wake up yet. In any case, this is the greatest humiliation that these people have suffered since the beginning of the army.

Therefore, looking at the dejected and listless generals under the tent, Zhang Mingtong sighed lightly, and then couldn't help but speak: "You have heard it, and you have cheered up in the past few days, and you have taken a good look at the soldiers under your account. It's all come to this point, and nothing must happen, do you understand? ”

"Yes, the last general will obey." When the generals heard this, although they were depressed and uncomfortable, they also agreed to it at the first time.

Seeing him like this, Zhang Mingtong didn't bother to say anything. So after glancing at the generals in the tent, he couldn't help but be ready to wave their hands to let them retreat.

"General, the general is awake, the general is awake!" At this moment, a personal guard involuntarily broke into the camp tent and said such words to Zhang Mingtong and others in the camp.

Suddenly, hearing his words, Zhang Mingtong couldn't help but show a rare smile. "Great, the Great General, he finally woke up. Quick, wait, come with me to see the General! Zhang Mingtong said so excitedly, and then he couldn't help but walk out of the camp with everyone.

However, just before Zhang Mingtong and his entourage came to the Chinese army's tent quickly, Zhang Mingtong couldn't help but stop, and turned to everyone: "The general is seriously injured and wakes up, let's all go in, but it is not good for the general's health." So let it be so, Ah Yang and 19 of you, come with me into the tent, and the rest wait outside the tent. ”

Saying this, and greeting him again, Zhang Mingtong couldn't help but take Zhang Yang and Wang Nineteen and walked into the Chinese army's tent together.

Because Zhang Shihui was injured at this time, after Zhang Mingtong and the three of them walked into the Chinese army's tent, they couldn't help but ask about a strong smell of medicine. However, Zhang Mingtong and the three of them didn't care about this. At this time, they first nodded to the doctor who was called Doctor Chen by the generals and soldiers of the army, and expressed their gratitude.

Then the three of them couldn't help but walk quickly to Zhang Shihui's bedside.

"General, are you alright?" Looking at Zhang Shihui, who was wrapped in a white cloth and pale because of excessive blood loss, Zhang Mingtong and the others couldn't help but ask with concern.

"Ahem...... It's okay, I can't die yet. But Mingtong, I want to ask you, that night, our army was defeated, right? Zhang Shihui, who was lying on the bed, twisted his head with difficulty, looked at Zhang Mingtong with a pair of eyes, but couldn't help asking.

And Zhang Mingtong heard such words, although he was worried about Zhang Shihui's body and had the intention to hide it, but looking at Zhang Shihui's eyes, he still couldn't help but sigh silently and didn't say anything.

But even so, Zhang Mingtong's meaning is obviously obvious.

So Zhang Shihui looked at them, was silent for a long time, and then couldn't help but ask again: "Then, how many casualties did we have in this battle, and what were the losses?" ”

"General, ...... you" Looking at Zhang Shihui's pale and weak appearance, Zhang Mingtong didn't know whether to say it or not.
