Chapter 1044 - Scattering Birds and Beasts
"In this way, it seems that Leader Song, you are sure that you can defeat me, that's why you are so big-packed, right? I agreed to your proposal, but we have to make it clear in advance, whether the two of us will fight each other, or choose the generals under our command to fight? Save the time when someone is messing around. Huang Chao agreed very happily, but he was more cautious than before, first knocking the other party to death, and then agreeing to compete.
So Huang Chao sent Meng Juehai and asked him to go down to fight Song Jiang's people.
However, at this time, Liu Zongmin pestered Meng Juehai and threatened that if Meng Juehai did not agree to fight him, it would mean that he would take the initiative to admit defeat, so that he could directly challenge Huang Chao.
Meng Juehai was also short-tempered, and when he heard this, he immediately said coldly: "Since this is the case, then I will kill you first, and then fight against the people of Leader Song." ”
Then there was a fierce battle between Meng Juehai and Liu Zongmin, but the two sides fought for more than 50 years, which surprised Huang Chao and Li Zicheng, the two generals under their command were the strongest, I thought that there would be no doubt about the victory, but I didn't expect it to be just a win.
At this time, he saw the people sent by Song Jiang shouting: "Old Meng, you have already agreed to the general's challenge, how can you fight with others?" Could it be that he was afraid of the general and deliberately took advantage of this to dodge? Or is it an excuse to fail the competition? If you don't come again, I'll treat you as a towel. ”
"Haha, who am I? It turned out to be Lao Qin, the two of us were half a pound and eight taels before awakening, and it was difficult to distinguish victory or defeat, don't you believe that you will be stronger than me after awakening? Don't talk nonsense, wait until I finish solving this new Liu Zongmin, and then deal with you, this guy has always been arrogant, and sometimes he robs people's daughters, I can't get used to him for a long time, find this opportunity to teach him a lesson today, you don't have to worry, if I lose to you, I will never make excuses, besides, it doesn't take much effort to deal with this kid at all, and you can take him down in five rounds at most. ”
"Hehe, you fought me for fifty rounds before without a win, and you actually said that it would take five more rounds to defeat me, you can really blow it." Listening to Meng Juehai's words, Liu Zongmin sneered, made sarcastic remarks, and at the same time launched a counterattack, the spear in his hand stabbed like thunder, and said with a sneer: "I want to see if you can't defeat me in five rounds, what do you have to say?" ”
Meng Juehai turned his head to avoid Liu Zongmin's shot, and said lightly: "Hmph, although your martial arts are not weak, but this body has long been hollowed out by wine, how long can you last?" Fifty rounds have been held to death, and then I'm going to use a trick, Liu Zongmin, let's die! ”
After finishing speaking, Meng Juehai shouted, and the spear in his hand suddenly changed for some reason, passing under Liu Zongmin's left rib at a strange angle, and then penetrating through his right chest, and then kicked out suddenly, kicking Liu Zongmin to the ground.
Liu Zongmin struggled to get up, but the strength in his body seemed to be instantly drained, and he was unable to get up, and then fell to the ground suddenly, vomiting blood in a big gulp, and died of exhaustion within a moment.
"Lao Liu!" Seeing Liu Zongmin killed, Li Zicheng's face was full of disbelief, and then he came to Liu Zongmin with tears in his eyes, hugged his corpse and cried loudly: "Brother, the two of us have lived together since childhood, and later joined the army together, and crossed east together to the Japanese country. ”
Then Li Zicheng ordered the officers and men of the whole army to prepare and fight to the death with Huang Chao's subordinates!
"You, you, Li Zicheng, what are you going to do?" Although Huang Chao is arrogant, he only has 800 soldiers under his command, and Li Zicheng has 1,200 people under his command, in this case, he is not willing to fight hard with the other party at all, first of all, there is no hope of winning this battle, and on the other hand, even if he wins, he will lose at least half of his 800 people, and at that time, what qualifications does he have to compete with other leaders for fiefdoms?
So Huang Chao was very jealous of Li Zicheng, and at the same time he was very angry in his heart, this Meng Juehai really didn't know how to take it seriously, you just gave this Liu Zongmin a lesson, but why did you want to kill him?
In fact, it's not just the Yellow Nest? Even Meng Juehai himself was shocked, his martial arts and Liu Zongmin were originally between the best, but just now I don't know why he killed Liu Zongmin all at once, it is said that the other party can completely dodge, but in the end he did not dodge, and as a result, he explained the matter to everyone, but if he said such a thing, no one would believe it at all.
Of course, Meng Juehai didn't know that all this was actually instructed by a leader named Li Mi, who instructed his general Wang Bodang to quietly use a hidden weapon to injure Liu Zongmin when the two were fighting, which caused Liu Zongmin to be unable to dodge, and was finally killed by Meng Juehai.
Li Zicheng saw that Huang Chao hesitated and refused to hand over Meng Juehai, and suddenly became even more annoyed, pointed at Huang Chao and said: "Hand over the murderer Meng Juehai, I will not pursue it today, otherwise, I will definitely fight with you to break the net!" ”
But when he saw Zhang Xianzhong on the side, he sneered: "I said before, I would like to take Brother Li as the leader, and if I want to kill Huang Chao, how can I be missing?" ”
At this time, I saw that Dou Jiande, Du Fuwei, Fu Gongyi, Hong Xiuquan, Hou Jing, Li Mi and others also expressed their willingness to unite with Li Zicheng to jointly crusade against Huangchao.
The combined strength of these people is more than 5,000 people, no matter how arrogant Huang Chao is, he does not dare to oppose them, in order to protect himself, he has to reluctantly hand over Meng Juehai to Li Zicheng for disposal, and assure everyone that he will withdraw from the ranks of the representatives of the fief, which has won everyone's unanimous understanding.
"Lord, I, Meng Juehai, am loyal to you, and we have a friendship between us for decades, can you hand me over like this?"
Meng Juehai was indignant at this, and pointed to Huang Chao and said in a deep voice.
Huang Chao had a gloomy face, and shouted at Meng Juehai: "I have already ordered you to kill and injure your life before, but you are cruel and easy to kill, destroying the situation of stability and unity, as the so-called killing pays for life, and you pay off debts, if you kill someone, shouldn't you pay for your life?" Is there a reason in the world? ”
"I understand, hehe, it turns out that you are just a bully, greedy for life and afraid of death, this is all to blame for me being blind and following someone like you."
Meng Juehai laughed a few times, and then said: "Since I killed the person, I won't say anything more, just lose this life." ”
Later, Meng Jue raised his sword and committed suicide.
After Meng Juehai's death, the eight hundred soldiers around Huang Chao were all disappointed, saluted him, and didn't say anything more, they actually left Huang Chao, and then ran to the camp of one of the few Yanghu and others, and chose to belong again.
In this way, the Huang Chao forces, which were one of the largest forces in the rebel army at that time, were scattered like this, and only Huang Chao was left.
