Chapter 51: Once Back to the Pre-Liberation Period
Hang Tong is the first strategist under Zhang Xiang, Zhang Xiang naturally has to observe him well, Zhang Xiang found that although Hang Tong has some ability to do things, but he is a little too procrastinating in dealing with people, that is to say, he does not seek merit but seeks no fault.
He may not do things well, but he will definitely not do things badly, this may be more related to his experience, although Zhang Xiang is a little dissatisfied with him, but he also knows that it is impossible to change a person in a short period of time.
Zhang Xiang is not qualified to criticize his behavior, after all, he has not done anything wrong, and at the same time understands him very well, this may be the character of a person who is good at handling internal affairs!
Although Hang Tong was tepid, he was still much stronger than his subordinates, and it only took three days to deal with everything in Beiping County, and Zhang Xiang took more than 6,000 people on the road.
Zhang Xiang's righteous army developed rapidly, when he left Youzhou, Xiangfei's army was only more than 2,000 people, and now it has more than 6,000 people, it can be said that the number of people has expanded nearly three times, Zhang Xiang did not find the trouble caused by the rapid expansion of the number of people, but was a little complacent.
This also made Zhang Xiang experience the taste of defeat in the near future, Zhang Xiang led the army to march, and some of the scattered Yellow Turban thieves could not stop the footsteps of Xiang Fei's army, not only Zhang Xiang, but even his subordinates were gradually lost in the joy of victory.
No one found this problem until Zhang Xiang led the righteous army into Puyin, Puyin County, Puyin is the seventh of the eight trails of Taihang, which is mountainous and forested, and is a beautiful ancient road.
This ancient road is located in the upper reaches of the river valley, so the air is very fresh, this ancient road has been a battleground for soldiers since ancient times, so the imperial court set up the Guancheng Wuruan Pass here, at this time this Guancheng was occupied by the Yellow Turban thieves.
Just because the Xiangfei Army was carried away by the victory from top to bottom, they didn't care about the Yellow Turban Thieves in Wuruan Pass, and it can be said that they didn't look down on it at all, and resolutely stepped into the Puyin Ancient Road.
As soon as the Xiangfei army stepped into the ancient road, it was ambushed by the Yellow Turban defenders of Wuruan Pass, although Taihang Mountain is beautiful, but because of this beautiful beauty, it is easy for people to forget its precipitousness, and the Yellow Turban thieves are killed from both sides.
The rolling stone and the wood kept rolling down from both sides, followed by a large number of yellow turban thieves, no wonder Xiang Feijun was too swaggering along the way, it was difficult not to get people's attention, this group of yellow turban thieves had long been eyeing them.
Zhang Xiang had no choice but to order the rebels to rush forward, and now retreating can only be a dead end, but unfortunately the road ahead will not be so easy to walk, it has long been blocked by the Yellow Turban Thieves with boulders, and it is impossible to pass at all.
Xiangfei's army was mixed with a large number of yellow turban thieves, and they were suddenly attacked, and the first thing to mess up was these yellow turban soldiers, who were disorganized into the righteous army in order to subdue these yellow turban soldiers in the past.
Now it seems that it is really self-inflicted, the rebels are instantly panicked and unable to command and dispatch, and this situation has been maintained until they hand over the Yellow Turban thieves on both sides, and the situation is better without the arrows and arrows Rolling Stone Xiangfei Army.
Zhang Xiang was very glad that his enemy was the Yellow Turban Thieves at this time, they were very poor, and it was because of their poverty that Zhang Xiang and others had a glimmer of life, if they had changed to other troops, Zhang Xiang believed that he had been killed by the rain of arrows, how could he have a chance to fight in close combat!
Maybe it was really the wall that everyone pushed down, and those yellow turban soldiers not only did not rise up to resist, but betrayed Zhang Xiang with a rake, and moved knives to Xiangfei's sergeants, many of Zhang Xiang's soldiers died like this.
Zhang Xiang continued to gather his loyal subordinates, Zhang Fei, Zhang Feng, Hua Yiting, Deng Mao, Baique, Jiang Kai gradually gathered around Zhang Xiang, Zhang Xiang looked at the yellow turban thieves all over the mountains.
He knew that he would die here today, his heart was so unwilling, and at the same time he was afraid of death, he was ashamed of his thoughts, and he felt ashamed of the support of Zhang Fei and others.
He was a little disheartened, Zhang Fei saw that Zhang Xiang was very wrong, as if he had lost his soul, "Third brother, what's wrong with you, are you injured, it's the eldest brother's bad that put you in danger, but third brother, don't worry, I will send you out." ”
Zhang Xiang didn't expect Zhang Fei to be in the mood to comfort himself at this time, he knew that he really didn't have the time to think about what he had and didn't have now, so he still wanted to find a way to live!
Zhang Fei's words aroused Zhang Xiang's fighting spirit to live, maybe it was really the emperor who lived up to his wishes, Zhang Xiang really found a glimmer of hope, he saw a yellow scarf reward should not be too old, but wearing gold and silver, like a rich young master.
But looking at his face exposed to the wind and sun, I don't know what's wrong Zhang Xiang feels very funny, this may be the crown of Mu Monkey! Judging from the way this person is dressed, his status among the Yellow Turban Thieves must not be low.
Zhang Xiang: "Big brother, have you seen the yellow scarf general who is dressed very richly?" Capture him, remember to capture him alive. Zhang Fei rushed out without thinking about Zhang Xiang's order when he heard Zhang Xiang's order.
Zhang Fei used the Zhangba spear as an iron rod, it was a word sweep, and the yellow turban thieves in front of Zhang Fei were swept out by him, and no one could stop him, and the yellow turban general who was crowned by the monkey was also a person who did not admit defeat, and he rushed over like Zhang Fei.
When Zhang Xiang saw this kind of scene, he could only sigh that God would not die me, this yellow turban general took advantage of Zhang Fei's unstable right sweep, and killed him in an instant, obviously trying to attack him unprepared.
It's a pity that his opponent is Zhang Fei Zhang Yide, Zhang Fei kicked the lower body of the offender with a kick with his left foot, Zhang Fei was just about to make a move and found that the person who came was the person who the third brother asked him to arrest, it was really effortless.
Zhang Fei dragged this person to Zhang Xiang's side, Zhang Xiang looked at the yellow turban general who couldn't stand still, and he didn't know when the weapon was thrown out, covering his lower body with both hands and screaming.
Zhang Xiang saw the blood oozing from his hands, and he felt a little unbearable in his heart, but the current situation could not tolerate Zhang Xiang's kindness, Zhang Xiang picked up a knife and stabbed him in the thigh.
I don't know how many immoral things this yellow turban general has done, God wants to punish him like this, Zhang Xiang stabbed him in the thigh, but who would have thought that as soon as he suddenly turned around, Zhang Xiang's knife entered his back.
Fortunately, Zhang Xiang's knife just now was a little off, otherwise it would be in the center, Zhang Fei watched from the side, "Third brother, you are too ruthless!" Soldiers can be killed, but they cannot be humiliated! "Zhang Xiang really wants to scold, big brother, you are embarrassed to talk about me.
But fortunately, Zhang Xiang still knew what to do, and shouted: "Stop it for me, see who this is?" Zhang Xiang actually wanted to see if this yellow turban general was a big man.
Who would have thought that the Yellow Turban thieves on the battlefield would all stop at the same time, Zhang Xiang knew that this person's identity must not be simply a big fish, this time he really picked up a life-saving talisman!
The battlefield suddenly calmed down, and a yellow turban man walked out, if it weren't for those yellow turban soldiers who called this person a qu shuai, Zhang Xiang still thought it was an old farmer on the side of the road? It's not at all like a general who commands a group of thieves.
"I'm Huang Turban Qu Shuai Shihu, stinky boy, you let go of my son, I can let you go today." Zhang Xiang didn't expect that he was so lucky to catch the son of the enemy Qu Shuai at once.
But Zhang Xiang thought that the eldest brother seemed to have spent this kid's life just now, if this Yellow Turban Qu Shuai knew about it, he would definitely fight with him, so he blocked this kid's mouth.
Shi Hu saw Zhang Xiang plugging his son's mouth, but he dared not speak out, he was afraid of provoking Zhang Xiang to poison his son, this son is the third generation of his family!
Zhang Xiang: "Shiqushuai really treats me Zhang Xiang as a child!" If I let him go, is it really looking for death? So be it! As soon as we get to a safe place, will we let your son go? ”
Shi Hu: "No, what if you turn back?" Where else can I find you? When Zhang Xiang heard this, he immediately pulled out the knife, and Zhang Xiang saw a stream of blood spurting out, fortunately Zhang Xiang hid in time, otherwise he would have been splashed.
Zhang Xiang: "It seems that now is not the time for you to negotiate conditions, after all, your son is with me." Shi Hu saw that Zhang Xiang, a kid, was so ruthless at a young age, so he could only choose to compromise.
Shi Hu: "Okay, I promise, but you also have to promise that I will harm my son's life." "No problem." Zhang Xiang's rebel army began to gather, and Zhang Xiang found that there were only more than 2,000 people willing to follow him, and he really returned to the pre-liberation period! However, Zhang Xiang is already very content to save his life.
Shi Hu's son was lifted up by Zhang Fei, and Zhang Xiang also slowly withdrew from the encirclement of the Yellow Turban with the righteous army, Zhang Xiang looked at these Yellow Turban thieves and felt that he had been killed several times.
Zhang Xiang saw a cliff, asked his subordinates to untie their belts and tie up the life-saving talisman, and slowly lowered the cliff, Shi Hu roared after seeing it, "Zhang Xiang, what do you want to do?" “
Zhang Xiang: "I don't want to do anything, we don't know each other that well, but Qu Shuai keeps sending me, and I'm forced to be helpless!" Since Qu Shuai is so polite, of course I will return a heavy gift. “
Shi Hu: "Don't you want to get an inch?" ”
Zhang Xiang: "I just want to live, I don't want to be embarrassed by Qu Shuai, after all, you found me first." Shi Hu had no choice but to drive the Yellow Turban army back, leaving only the elite personnel.
"Qu Shuai is such a good father! Let Xiangdu have to envy, I will leave a subordinate to protect your son, and after three hours, my subordinate will release your son, but if you make any big moves within three hours, I can't guarantee that this rope will not be strong. Zhang Xiang saw that one of the rebels had an arrow in his chest, and he should not be far from death.
Zhang Xiang came to the wounded man's side, "What's your name?" ”
The wounded soldier spoke, "General, my name is Xie Da Niu. ”
Zhang Xiang: "The person I want to stay is you, are you willing?" Or maybe there's something unfulfilled about it. “
Xie Da Niu looked at the arrow on his chest, knowing that his life was short, "I am willing, I can die for the general, everything is worth it, my family was killed by the Yellow Turban thief, it is the honor of the villain to follow the general." Zhang Xiang patted him on the shoulder and left with tears in his eyes.
