The fall of the Shooting Goose Fortress has become an irreversible fact, and the only thing Ye Zhao has to do now is to do everything possible to break through. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
As early as when leading the troops to rescue Sheyanpo, Ye Zhao left a henchman lieutenant and arranged the task, when all the cavalry of the cavalry camp arrived at Jian Zhenping, this lieutenant immediately led these cavalry and the remaining guards to find Liu Xiang and Jiang Chen.
In the chaotic stone hill outside Jian Zhenping, Liu Xiang found that the Qin army in the nearby camp was inexplicably much less, and expected that Wang Jian was going to attack the fortress again, so he immediately led the troops back to Jian Zhenping.
On the way, the captain met Liu Xiang and his party, and before Liu Xiang could ask the captain, he panted and said: "General, the gate of the fortress was broken by the Qin army, and General Ye led most of the defenders of Jian Zhenping to the rescue, because the Qin army was strong, and General Ye ordered to bring these cavalry and the remaining defenders to you in order to prevent our army from losing all its vital strength."
After listening to this, Liu Xiang thought: "I'm afraid that Ye Zhao is already under siege now, but if he leads the army to save him, it will undoubtedly be sent to death, now he has to find Jiang Chen as soon as possible to discuss countermeasures, and the fortress was still good two hours ago, how could it be suddenly breached, and soon the Qin army will surround it, this is not a place for detailed questioning, you have to leave quickly."
Then Liu Xiang turned his horse's head and led the army to the south.
At this time, Ye Zhao led the army to fight between the ruins and broken walls, and there were fewer and fewer soldiers and horses under his hands, and more and more Qin soldiers surrounded him, and Cao Cheng, Qian Fei, Suo Xing, and Wang Ben, the four Qin generals took turns to fight.
Ye Zhao used all his strength to constantly repel the attacks of the four, because there were too many people around, and they didn't dare to exert their full strength, for fear of accidentally injuring a few people, so Ye Zhao was able to kill a bloody way, looking at the sword and killing in the direction of Zhenping.
As soon as he rushed to a distance, Ye Zhao found that there were eighteen people left beside him, and at this time, there was another group of Qin troops in front of him to intercept them, and this team of Qin troops had obviously waited for a long time and had already set up a formation.
The first general raised the chain hammer in his hand and said: "Ye Zhao, our general said that you will be rewarded with five hundred for your head, although it is less than Liu Xiang's, but it is enough for the master to spend for a while, and today I will go to your dog's life."
After saying that, he threw out a heavy hammer connected to the iron chain and smashed it, Ye Zhao flashed his hand and turned it around, wrapping a piece of iron chain around the horse chopping knife.
At this time, Ye Zhaoren was sleepy and tired, so he could only force his big knife not to detach his hands, and this Qin general was holding on to it with an iron chain, and the two of them were currently connected with weapons and could not be separated immediately.
At this moment, a black shadow passed through the grass on the side, and then a boomerang in the shape of a windmill the size of a hat flew in, and this boomerang went straight to Qin Jiang and stabbed him in the throat.
Qin Jiang let go of the hands that held the chain and fell from the horse, and then lay on the ground and twitched for a while before he did not move, Ye Zhao suddenly disappeared due to the force on the opposite side, and his body fell backwards under the action of inertia, and he hurriedly used the knife bar to support the ground behind him so that he did not fall from the horse.
Ye Zhao didn't know who attacked General Qin for what purpose, so he only retreated to his own men and horses without taking any further action.
Seeing that the general was killed by this sudden attack with a hidden weapon, the Qin army was a little flustered, but was immediately ordered by the deputy general to stabilize it.
At this time, a burst of chaotic arrows flew out from the grass on both sides, and all of them flew over the shield in front of the Qin array, and they all fell to the center of the formation, instantly disrupting the Qin army's formation.
A black-clothed man holding a long ge ran out of the grass to kill the Qin army, and the arrows were fired at the back, so that the Qin army did not dare to attack at all.
The man in black took two boomerangs from behind his back and threw them, these two boomerang slashed through the throats of more than ten archers behind the shield, and the soldiers behind the shield hand of the Qin army all raised their spears and stabbed at the man in black.
The man in black kicked the shield hard and jumped high, and at the same time, his body rotated in a circle above the Qin soldiers and flexibly dodged the attack, and after entering the Qin array, he swung his hand like a drawn, and the Qin soldiers were hit one by one and fell to the ground.
"General, what are you doing there, don't you leave quickly"
Ye Zhao heard the shouts of the man in black in the Qin array and led his troops to run down the mountain, and the deputy general saw that Ye Zhao had gone away and the man in black kept waving Changge, and said angrily: "Who are you and why do you want to help Zhao Jun."
Before he could finish speaking, the mount was stabbed by the man in black, and he crashed into the horse and fell to the ground and fainted.
The man in black ignored the fact that the deputy would continue to kill the remnants of the Qin army, and after a while, he killed the last two dozen people left, and then took off the face covering cloth and wiped the shouts on his face.
The adjutant general woke up and saw the face of the man in black standing in the corpse, and said, "You, it's actually you, you dare to help ......"
"I'm just helping my friends on the same front, because they have the same ideals as me, and I won't allow them to be annihilated by you."
The man in black stabbed him to death before the lieutenant could speak, and then whispered in his ear, and when he saw that there was no more living on the ground, he retreated with his men in the grass.
Ye Zhao galloped all the way with the few soldiers and horses left, and finally found Jiang Chen and some soldiers and horses in the deep forest under the Shooting Goose Slope, and then Liu Xiang and Lu Yi found them with dozens of plainclothes soldiers.
More than 300 people came in the woods one after another, all of them were fleeing Zhao soldiers, and a group of people and horses came from the depths of the woods in the south, it was Liu Xi who carried plainclothes to collect grain and grass, and Lu Lian also led more than 500 people who were killed from the Qin army.
Everyone told each other about the experience of this half-day, Ye Zhao told all the things about being rescued by a man in black, and told everyone about the process of the man in black fighting with the Qin army, everyone was very shocked, but they didn't think it was fake when they saw that Ye Zhao could break through.
Liu Xiang thought to himself: "Is this man in black that Ye Zhao said the same person who fired arrows to help him during the last sneak attack on Qin's camp, who is he and why he wants to help us, and why can he hide in the tiger's den while the Qin army didn't notice it at all."
Liu Xiang didn't think about it anymore, although the fortress was lost, but the brothers came back, and there was no worry on his face, Ye Zhao called several soldiers under Cheng Bian, and the soldiers told Cheng Bian how he didn't listen to Lu Rui's persuasion to go down the mountain to rob grain.
A soldier who fled at the hands of the Qin army when he followed Cheng Bian to rob the grain told the story of Cheng Bianzhong's ambush and was finally killed by the Qin generals, and another Wu commander who was able to break through under Lu Rui told the story of Wang Jian beheading Lu Rui.
After Liu Xiang heard that Cheng Bian privately led his army to rob grain, and was calculated by the Qin army, he not only lost his life and broke his soldiers and horses, but also made the camp empty and was conquered by the Qin army, so he jumped off the horse in anger and hit the big tree next to him twice with a spear.
In order to avoid being attacked by the Qin army again, everyone did not stay where they were, and went to the depths of the woods to continue talking......
