Chapter 750: The Battle of Nanpi (Part II)

After a while, the tide of arrows in the city weakened slightly. Zhang Nan's eyes were sharp, but he saw that it was dusk soon after, and he immediately felt a shock in his heart, thinking that Zhang Fei did not have many troops, and once it was dark, in order to prepare for the attack of the army in the city, he would inevitably retreat. Thinking of this, Zhang Nan secretly laughed at his previous thoughts, this Zhang Fei is really a puppet who can't use soldiers.

So, Zhang Nan secretly ordered a few post generals to quickly inform the guards of the other three city gates, and asked them to allocate troops and horses, prepare secretly, and when the night was dark and Zhang Fei hurriedly retreated, listen to his orders and kill them in a big way!

On the other side, Zhang Nan, who was good at calculation, ordered the generals in the city to urge his subordinates to carry out a fierce attack, and try to make Zhang Fei's army under the city as tired as possible, so that when the night dark army came out, it could annihilate the enemy army in one fell swoop.

With the rapid fall of Zhang Nandao's order, I saw that the attack on the city was becoming more and more fierce, and the arrows were constantly falling, like a shower. Seeing that Zhang Feijun was difficult to get close to the city, he refused to retreat. The two armies were so persistent, and gradually time passed, and it seemed that it was already dusk.

"Haha~!! This horseman doesn't know how to retreat yet, so it's just right!! As long as the night is dark, even if you wait for death and no place to be buried!! Zhang Nan saw that Zhang Feijun only held a shield to resist the arrows, and did not advance or retreat, and he was secretly happy in his heart.

At this moment, suddenly a soldier beside Zhang Nan subconsciously shouted: "It's strange, this Zhang Fei has never been hot, if he forcibly attacks, he can't get close to the city." It looks like it's done on purpose. ”

When Zhang Nan heard this, his heart fluttered, and he immediately rushed to the edge of the city again, glaring. Sure enough, Zhang Feijun saw shield soldiers guarding in front, and the soldiers and horses behind him had no intention of clashing and pressing. The more Zhang Nan looked at it, the more frightened he became, and at this moment, he suddenly heard a bowstring vibrating, which was particularly loud and exploded violently. Zhang Nan's complexion changed suddenly, and when he looked at it urgently, he saw an arrow like lightning bolt, and suddenly it seemed to turn into a silver snake with its tongue and mouth open, flying forward.

Zhang Nan saw it clearly, but when he wanted to dodge, it was too late, so he could only subconsciously move his body.

Immediately, he only heard a sudden sound of 'pop', Zhang Nan couldn't help screaming in pain, the sudden arrow hit his chest, and broke through the armor, and Zhang Nan fell immediately. The surrounding soldiers were so frightened that they changed color, and hurriedly came to visit, but fortunately, the cold arrow did not penetrate deeply, and several soldiers hurriedly helped Zhang Nan, who was unconscious, and turned to the enemy building to heal.

"Haha~! Brother Fang is not only good at halberd, but his archery skills are also first-class, which reminds me of the next character in the Tiger Prison back then! Zhang Fei, who was under the city, saw Zhang Nan fall by an arrow, and his face couldn't help showing a little surprise, although he was smiling at this time, his eyes looking at Fang Yue had a bit of terrifying light.

Fang Yue, who was holding a three-stone magpie painting bow in his hand, said that his expression also changed, his eyes became sharp, and he asked, "What the third master said is the evil god Lu Bu?" ”

"Haha~! It's a pity that I couldn't share with him back then! But sooner or later, I will definitely kill him under my snake spear!! Zhang Fei shouted loudly, and a fierce and amazing momentum burst out on his body in an instant, and the three-headed and six-armed black rakshasa burst out of his body.

Fang Yue was frightened to see it, and there were some blows, judging from the momentum that Zhang Fei issued at this moment, Fang Yue knew that he was afraid that there was still some distance between him and Zhang Fei, let alone compared with the evil god Lu Bu. Zhang Fei put the two of them together, which was very face-saving for him.

It is said that Zhang Nan was secretly attacked by Fang Yue with an arrow, and all the soldiers in Hebei were angry, so they waited for the night to be attacked. One of the soldiers repeatedly warned him, but he provoked the anger of the people and was drunk and retreated.

Gradually, as the sun set, the sky became dark. Just when a cadre of soldiers in Hebei was about to give the order to fight, suddenly a series of killing sounds like a tide of boiling water surged from the west, north, and south, and the entire heaven and earth seemed to shake in an instant.

At the same time, the guards of the west, north, and south gates hurriedly looked into the distance, and saw one after another black pressure in the distance, and I don't know how many enemy soldiers rushed over, and the guards of the three gates were all in a hurry to launch a call for help. Soon there was chaos in Nanpi City, and because Zhang Nan was unconscious, the dragons had no leader, and most of the generals disagreed, so they transferred their own allocations, and soon after, the entire Nanpi City was blocked.

In such a chaotic situation, half an hour later, the three gates of Nanpixi, Beibei, and Nan were all attacked by the enemy, but the defenders of the city were in great confusion. At the east gate, several Hebei soldiers wanted to fight desperately, and ordered the city gate to be opened without authorization, and the Hebei army in the city was chaotic. "Hahahaha~~!! Wait for the rats, this time it can be said that you are killing yourself~!! Seeing this, Zhang Fei couldn't help laughing, and as soon as he slapped the war horse, he was the first to rush away. Seeing this, Fang Yue raised the silver snake halberd in one fell swoop, and led his troops to kill it.

Suddenly, the two armies clashed under the city gate, the Hebei army was chaotic, and the Liu army was like a rainbow, the fighting spirit was high, and Zhang Fei was fierce, opening the road in front, and the Hebei army that poured out was killed in an instant, and retreated into the city gate. Zhang Fei rode his horse and crashed into the city gate first. The Hebei soldiers in the city saw it eagerly, and when they were in a hurry to close the city gate, it was too late.

Fang Yue saw that it was the right time, so he quickly led his troops to pounce wildly, and fought in the city with the Hebei army.

With the passage of time and the hard work of Liu Jun of all departments, the situation in Nanpi has become difficult to save. Soon after, Zhang Fei led his troops to take the lead in breaking through the east gate, and the Hebei army was defeated and fled. Immediately afterwards, the west gate, north gate, and south gate of Nanpi were broken respectively, and Liu Jun entered Nanpi City in a big way. However, many deployments got out of control and rushed to be the first to loot, so the situation became more and more chaotic.

Above the west gate, Liu Bei's eyes were cold, looking at the chaotic situation of burning, killing and looting in the city, while Zhang Yan was so frightened that his face turned pale and hurriedly knelt down.

"Zhang Yan, do you remember that before the battle, I gave you three orders and told you not to harm the people or loot the people's property, but what is it now?" Listening to Liu Bei's voice, full of murderous intent and anger. Zhang Yan couldn't help sweating profusely, and hurriedly said: "The lord is angry, after all, these people are thieves, and it is difficult to change their thief nature for a while!" In the end, he will be strict in his discipline, and ask the Lord to be gracious and give them another chance! ”

"Opportunity!? These are innocent people, I give them a chance, but who gives these poor people a chance!? Zhang Yan, what crime should you be guilty of if you don't discipline well!? Am I going to give you a chance too!? Suddenly, Liu Bei turned around suddenly, his whole body burst with momentum, his eyes were fierce and fierce, like a roaring dragon, but there was a bit of the domineering spirit of a king.

But seeing that the distance between Liu Bei and Zhang Yan at this time is less than a zhang, if Zhang Yan has a seizure, Liu Bei is afraid that he will be more than lucky. But I don't know that Zhang Yan, who was the leader of the 100,000 Black Mountain Bandit Army, didn't dare to attack, if it was in the past, I am afraid that he would have held Liu Bei hostage and regained control of power.

At this time, Zhang Yan lowered his once arrogant head, trembled all over, and said resignedly: "The last general will die and will not be able to escape the blame, I am willing to obey the lord's punishment and have no complaints!" ”

Liu Bei listened, the fierce color in his eyes gradually converged, and after sighing lightly, he said: "For the sake of being able to persuade a group of thieves to surrender to my command, and for the sake of this great contribution, I will spare your life, but your subordinates must be reorganized after breaking up according to my arrangement, if you have any complaints about the deployment, you have to calm the anger of the people." And those who kill and plunder the people today, you must find out one by one, enforce the law impartially, and punish them with death! Would you like to!? ”

In Zhang Yan's lowered head, Liu Bei's words made his eyes widen and wider, and his whole body trembled more and more. A fire of ignorance karma, like burning in his chest, Zhang Yan seemed to be ready to move.

In this regard, Liu Bei smiled and said unhurriedly: "Or, you can resist the order, or even attack, hold me hostage, regain control of the situation, and be your Black Mountain Thief again!" ”

When Zhang Yan heard this, he suddenly felt like he had fallen into an abyss, and his whole body instantly stiffened, and he didn't tremble. The guards behind Liu Bei listened eagerly, hurriedly grabbed the sword at his waist, and hurried over one after another.

Suddenly, a rather cold cool breeze blew, and I only heard Zhang Yan whispering: "The last general is guilty, and I am willing to listen to the lord's orders." ”

"Good!" Liu Bei was overjoyed when he heard this, so he showed a bright smile, and then conveyed the order, strictly ordering all armies to harm the people, and violators should be beheaded!

So, as the cruel night passed, the men and horses of the Hebei Army broke up one after another, surrendered to those who surrendered, and those who fled. And that night, with Liu Bei's orders repeatedly conveyed, those black mountain thieves under Zhang Yan reined in.

And with the rising sun, Nanpi City has changed hands, and its new owner is Liu Bei, who has recently received the edict of today's son Liu Xie and became the emperor's uncle.

In Nanpi City, there was silence at this time, but the crying of babies and women was faintly heard, and although the outpouring of resentment was invisible, it was so strong that people couldn't help but feel fear.

At this time, there was a sudden sound of howling and crying, and many people looked over and saw a white-faced man holding a bloodied baby in his arms and crying.

"Wow~~!! Why is the eldest brother crying~~!! At this moment, a burly and fierce giant man rushed out of the crowd, then turned over and dismounted, and hurried in front of Liu Bei.

"Shame on the sky~! This time, he did not hesitate to use soldiers to take the Bohai Sea, hoping to bring happiness to the people of Bohai, but unexpectedly, it brought a bloody disaster to the people, and he deserved to die~!! Shameless face the sky~!! Not worthy of being a member of the royal family~!! After that, the white-faced man hurriedly pulled out the sword at his waist, and he was about to wipe it off from his neck. The giant man reacted quickly, snatched it away, and shouted urgently: "The eldest brother has always been benevolent and righteous, and he must have ordered him to teach the army not to harm the innocent, it must be those Black Mountain thieves who did not listen to the orders and acted in vain~!! Zhang Yan, you still don't want me to die~~!! ”

At this moment, the identity of the white-faced man and the giant man is about to come out. The white-faced man is Liu Bei, and the giant man is Zhang Fei.

Saying that, Zhang Fei roared angrily, and Zhang Yan was so frightened that he hurriedly rushed out and knelt down to confess. Seeing this, the surrounding black mountain thieves also knelt down in a hurry, and when they saw Liu Bei so sad and angry, they more or less knew that they had committed a crime, and they were all ashamed and bowed their heads.

"Humph!! My eldest brother has always put benevolence and righteousness first, but he mistakenly believes that you, an incompetent person, have borne such a notoriety and damaged your reputation!! I'll kill you first~~!! Zhang Fei was furious, and rushed towards Zhang Yan with a sword in his hand, and was about to cut it down. Liu Bei was anxious to hold on and cried: "Don't blame others!" It is I Liu Xuande who has no way to govern the army, I am ashamed of the people, and I am ashamed of my ancestors of the Han family~!! ”

As soon as Liu Bei's words came out, all the departments were shocked and knelt down, all of them pleaded guilty. Liu Bei also knelt down and bowed everywhere to make amends for the souls of those who died tragically. Seeing this, Zhang Fei also knelt down in a hurry, so all the surrounding Liu clans deployed to kneel down one after another. Some even cried with Liu Bei.

The people of the South China Sea heard about it one after another, and they all came to see it, and they were all moved. As a result, more and more people came to appease. Liu Bei cried bitterly, and only said that he was worthy of the love of the people, and it was not a pity to die, so he worshiped the people again. The people of the South China Sea were flattered and hurriedly knelt down.

On the same day, in order to thank the people for forgiveness, Liu Bei opened the granary, and ordered Zhang Fei to lead his relatives to return the gains of the plundered people to the people one by one. At this point, the people's grievances gradually dissipated, but they were quite grateful to Liu Bei.

The next day, after Liu Bei finished rectifying, he taught Zhang Fei and Zhang Yan to find out the soldiers and soldiers who killed and looted the people that day, and those Zhang Yan's old departments, seeing that Zhang Yan was there, thinking that Zhang Yan would save their lives no matter what, and they were also ashamed, most of them had the courage to admit it, and those who were cunning and refused to come out were also pointed out one by one.

Zhang Yan personally divided the killing and looting into two parts, and Zhang Fei was in charge of the looting, about 2,000 people. Zhang Yan was responsible for the slaughter of the people, and there were about 1,000 people. These more than 3,000 people are also stubborn people. Zhang Yan's heart twitched, and suddenly she seemed to understand something, and she couldn't help but feel a chill in her heart, and said in her belly: "What a clever method, this Liu Xizi has pulled out almost all the stubborn people under my command at once." ”
