Chapter 240: The Night That Never Stops
In the end, the person who was found out didn't open his mouth, and was beaten to death by Zhang Xiang's people in front of everyone, Zhang Xiang finally discovered the suspicion of one of the people, and this person was very panicked.
kept retreating, and even peed his pants, but his eyes were firmly fixed on the person who was tortured to death, just ask a timid person like this how dare to look at a dead person, that can only show that he is pretending to be fake,
The more he pretends to be like even peeing his pants, it means that the more he doesn't want to leak, it can also be said that the more he shoots to death, Zhang Xiang ordered someone to arrest him, even so he is still acting, rolling on the ground.
Zhang Xiang ordered someone to rip off the clothes on his body, and there was a knife wound on his body that was scratched by a sharp weapon, "Are you still pretending?" A wound really doesn't mean anything, but the shape of your leg betrays you, and you can tell at a glance that it is caused by a long period of riding, and a person who has ridden a horse and been stabbed, you are a little too much. ”
The man stood up and rushed towards Zhang Xiang, but was finally kicked back by Zhou Cang, and was pushed to the ground by Zhang Xiang's personal guards, unable to move, and showed a very hard spirit.
Zhang Xiang ordered someone to take him down secretly, and Zhang Xiang also followed behind until he was out of sight, "Say it!" Tell me what you know, the more you behave, the more you show that you don't want to die, and I'll protect you if it's in my ears, and it's okay for me to escape back to the state without the ability. ”
"The villain doesn't understand why you chose me, I really don't want to take this step." This person suddenly squatted down, leaned against the wall and looked helpless, Zhang Xiang knew that this person was about to move.
Zhang Xiang: "Is this step difficult?" People have to live for themselves, other people have nothing to do with you, you tell what you know, I can do everything you want, not everyone has such an opportunity. ”
"My name is Wei Chili, a native of Wuyi, Anping, Jizhou, and I had to join the army in the middle of the road, and the rebels in Liangzhou caused trouble in the frontier, and I was assigned to Dong Zhuo's command, and now I have a position as the chief of Qu." Wei Chili kept saying it, but it was something inconsequential.
Zhang Xiang: "Are you stalling for time?" You'd better not be clever, do you think it really works for me? It should be true that the family is in the middle of the road, but there are also relatives who have the strength! My abilities make it easy for them to die. ”
Wei Chili: "My lord is really powerful, I don't know much about my status, I only know that in addition to us sergeants, there are many people who have also mixed into the city, many of them are ordinary people, but they were coerced to come here, and it is impossible to track them down." ”
Zhang Xiang's judgment of this sentence does not seem to be false, Jia Xu's trick is really powerful, and it can't be traced at all, unless all the people in the city are controlled, otherwise there is nothing to be done.
But once the people in the city are controlled, it will arouse the anger of the people and the threat is even greater, even if the people are obedient and obedient, then at least they will eat and drink, and there will be no surplus food in the army to support the people.
Zhang Xiang had no choice but to keep all the young and middle-aged people in the center of the city, and their families could visit, so as to save food, and control all the places near the four gates, not allowing any people to approach.
Night fell, Zhang Xiang's eyelids kept jumping, and there was always a feeling of panic in his heart, always feeling that something would happen, so he couldn't sleep, so Zhang Xiang stayed on the city wall.
Looking at the camp of the Liangzhou Army from afar, and at this time, Li Dao Jia Xu did not sleep, and the lights in the big tent were bright, "Commander, will we be too anxious to do this, do you want to do it later." Li Dao was also a little uncertain.
Jia Xu: "General, you know Zhang Xiang better than me, and you can't delay people like Zhang Xiang for too long, otherwise he will find out sooner or later, and he can only take advantage of his unstable foothold to quickly cut through the mess, and we may not be able to take advantage of it." ”
At this time, Li Dao still pretended to be tough, "My Liangzhou iron cavalry has traveled all over the world, how can I be afraid of a mere Zhang Xiang, his Bingzhou army will only hide and hide, and it will not be our opponent at all." ”
Jia Xu: "In terms of strength, our strength is indeed higher than Zhang Xiang's side, but our internal instability is ah!" Speaking of which, Zhang Xiang can be regarded as a Liangzhou person, not to mention that there is also a Niu Fu, Niu Fu has always guarded the rear for the Taishi, and his prestige in the army is not bad, these two people are Dong Zhuo's sons-in-law, it is difficult to guarantee that the soldiers in the army will not be soft! ”
This sentence happened to hit Li Xu's sore spot, so Li Wei relied on Jia Xu even more, which was also Jia Xu's purpose, "The military advisor will rely on you, and you must not lose tonight." ”
Jia Xu: "I don't know if I succeed or not, but at least there is not much loss to us, and I dare to guarantee that we can get out of it." "Jia Xu's best thing is self-preservation, and he won't promise something he is not sure of.
Retreating with his whole body is also something that Li Dao cares about, and if he can do this, Li Dao thinks it is enough, after all, there is still a chance in this big battle in Japan, and if it doesn't work this time, there will be a next time.
As long as Jia Xu is by his side, Li Dao will have the bottom in his heart, Li Dao will not forget who helped Dong Zhuo when he died, if it were not for Jia Xu's help, he would have died at the hands of the imperial court.
How can there be the current scenery, all Li Wei also feels that Jia Xu, except that he can't leave his side, he will meet all Jia Xu's requirements, Zhang Xiang has been standing on the top of the city.
Suddenly, there was a turmoil in the center of the city, that is, the places where the young and middle-aged people were imprisoned, not only that place, but also many places where a group of people poured out and rushed towards Zhang Xiang's camp.
However, smoke suddenly rose around the camp in Bingzhou, and there was a choking smell in the smoke, and the billowing smoke could be seen even in the dark night.
Zhang Xiang ordered to guard the city gate and not let anyone approach, Zhang Xiang knew very well that the movement in the camp was very large, but he must not hurt the army in the slightest, Cheng Yu was in the camp, and these things were not difficult for him.
At this time, Cheng Yu was also organizing soldiers, although the smoke was everywhere, it would only affect the line of sight and would not cause any great harm to people, and the strength of the people who came over was not strong, as long as they did not panic, there would be no problem.
At the critical moment, Cheng Yu proposed to exchange heads for rewards, and now the soldiers fought separately, but the effect was much better, after all, many of the people who came over were ordinary people, and they also came to make trouble.
It can't organize a decent attack at all, but this method has a drawback, that is, killing good and risking merit, not to mention that there are still some Liang sergeants with poor military discipline in the army, which is equivalent to loosening the reins.
No, Cheng Yu can't manage so much anymore, let's stabilize the situation on my side first! Now Cheng Yu is most afraid of the situation is the Xiao camp, as the name suggests, the camp suddenly makes a screaming sound at night, causing the soldiers to be nervous, and at the same time causing chaos, causing the enemy to take the opportunity to raid or the sergeant mutiny.
Cheng Yu didn't care about external threats, Cheng Yu was afraid that there would be a mutiny inside, so Cheng Yu would find a breakthrough for the soldiers to vent, so some soldiers couldn't help but start killing good and risking their achievements.
And there are more and more people, that's the way it is, one person will naturally have a second person to do it, and the people in the city began to flock to the four gates, and at this time, Cheng Yu saw that he was almost exhausted before he gathered the soldiers.
However, there seemed to be people among the people who took the opportunity to instigate, and the people flocked to the four gates, and the soldiers of the state took the lead and tried their best to block it, but after all, they were weak, and Jia Xu's people who were hiding among the people began to move.
Immediately caused the death and injury of the soldiers of Bingzhou, these people of Jia Xu are some old and weak women and children, they were all forced to come, otherwise they would not have taken risks, and the soldiers of Bingzhou could only resist.
Naturally, there were dead and injured on the people's side, and there was also such a situation at the city gate where they were naturally located, perhaps because Zhang Xiang was facing the relationship between the Liangzhou camp, so the number of people was extraordinarily large, but when the first soldier was injured.
Zhang Xiang gave the order to kill, there is no room for mercy at the critical time of life and death, Jia Xu has so many moves, and Zhang Xiang has been blinded by the truth and reality, maybe this is Jia Xu's purpose.
But Zhang Xiang had to admit that Jia Xu's trick was successful, Zhang Xiang couldn't guess what Jia Xu wanted to do, he had been in a passive state, and Zhang Xiang could only break the game by killing, hoping that there would be no big mess.
Zhang Xiang's order quickly spread to the four gates, and the state soldiers dealt with the ordinary people It was simply a one-sided situation, the other three gates were all killed, and only the people at the city gate where Zhang Xiang was located did not retreat but advanced.
And more people flocked to Zhang Xiang's city gate, Zhang Xiang immediately ordered to release arrows, at this time Zhang Xiang only saw many big men pushing the flaming wheelbarrow, rushing to the city gate.
The Liangzhou camp also sent a large army to rush to the side of the city, with a posture of not breaking the city and never returning it, Zhang Xiang couldn't let these open the city gates, Zhang Xiang sent Zhou Cang and Zhang Ding down.
The guards guarding the city gate on Zhang Xiang's side were Cheng Lian and Han Juzi, and when they saw this situation, they also rushed down, and the four fierce generals guarded the city gate, so that these unscrupulous people could not approach the city gate at all.
At this time, the Liangzhou army outside also began to attack the city, and the ladder was erected, and the war drums shook the sky especially in the dark night, and the sound of war drums here had reached Cheng Yu's ears.
Cheng Yu knew that Zhang Xiang was on the city wall over there, and he also became nervous, Cheng Yu immediately found Zhang Fei, "General Yide hurried to support the direction of the West Gate, and the enemy siege lord is still there." ”
When Zhang Fei heard this, how dare he hesitate! Immediately called some cavalry to support Ximen, and now the soldiers of Bingzhou are very chaotic, and they are all looking for their own generals, if it weren't for Zhang Fei's high prestige.
These soldiers will not listen to orders at all, so what Zhang Fei brought to support was also a mixed army, that is to say, there were people from all parts of the army, and Zhang Xiang had just held on for a while, and Zhang Fei led people to rush to the city wall.
Zhang Fei was relieved to see that Zhang Xiang was fine, and Zhang Xiang also saw Zhang Fei running over, "Big brother's camp is okay!" What about the losses? Zhang Fei also took advantage of this time to come to Zhang Xiang's side. (To be continued.) )
