"Okay, then I wish the general a success, you can rest assured that you will go out to fight, and sweep the battle for you" Guo Dian nodded, drove the horse out of the military formation, Guo Dian just left on the front foot, Hu Ling gave the order to withdraw the army; Guo Dian's life is only in the middle of the day, and if he doesn't leave at this time, he will wait for when.

Guo Dian carried a big axe, and after intercepting Zhang Meng, he shouted: "You are Zhang Meng? ”

Seeing a man with a big axe coming from the opposite side, looking like a general, Zhang Meng was overjoyed, grabbed the reins of the horse, and asked, "Are you a general?" Grandpa specializes in beheading generals, if you are just a small soldier, get out of the way."

"You dare to be Xiao Xu to me" Guo Dian was furious, holding the axe in one hand, and rushed to Zhang Meng with a loud roar: "Look at the axe."

"There are people looking for death every year, and there are a lot of them this year" Zhang Meng didn't talk nonsense, the hammer rose to face Guo Dian, the two clashed instantly, and the hammer and the big axe collided together: "Bang".

With a loud bang, Zhang Meng was slightly surprised, the person with the big axe in front of him was not as weak as he imagined, at least under his own blow, the big axe in his hand was not knocked out: "Have a little ability, come again."

looked at the big axe tied to his hand, Guo Dian wanted to cry without tears, he knew that he should have untied the rope and fought again; Under this blow, the force of the shock made Guo Dian's right hand almost abolished, Guo Dian quickly untied the cloth belt tied to his right hand, and met Zhang Meng with the axe in his left hand.

"Bang" The hammer and the big axe collided again, because Guo Dian's big axe was not knocked away for the first time, so Zhang Meng used full force this time, and the sledgehammer smashed down with gusts of wind.

"Ahh Guo Dian's hands were bleeding, and it hurt hotly, now Guo Dian was convinced that his martial arts were not worse than Zhang Meng, and now that he was seriously injured, there was no possibility of winning, so he endured the pain and pulled up the reins of the horse, patted the horse's belly and fled backwards, as long as he escaped back to the military formation, he would be saved; But Guo Dian looked up, and there was still the shadow of the army: "Hu Ling, you bastard, Lao Tzu hacked you alive."

"Hmph, now I think of running away, it's too late" A huge hammer slid through the air, "bang" from far and near.

The "click-poof" hammer smashed on Guo Dian's back, and a crisp sound of bone cracking came, Guo Dian let out a miserable scream and fell off the war horse.

Zhang Meng dismounted and picked up the hammer and was about to leave, but after thinking about it, if he went back and told Huang Quan that he had killed the enemy's commander, people would definitely not believe it, Zhang Meng thought for a while and picked up the big axe next to him, cut it down with an axe, grabbed Guo Dian's bloody head, and smiled: "Look at you dare to underestimate me."

As soon as Zhang Meng beheaded Guo Dian, the news reached Hu Ling's ears, and Hu Ling worriedly asked the scout who came to report the news: "Did the madman chase him?"

The scout said, "No, he went back after cutting off General Guo's head."

Hu Ling let out a long sigh of relief, and if he didn't chase after him, he said that his life was saved, and Hu Ling ordered: "Pass my order, and the whole army will be stationed in Languan."

"No".

Jingliao County

Jingliao County has now become a veritable ghost town, with no one for dozens of miles, even in the county seat, it is sparsely populated and rarely crowded; Jingliao County is less than 200 miles away from the imperial capital, which should have been the center of the economy. But after several years of natural disasters, coupled with the sudden vision in the sky over Jingliao, those who should go and those who should flee have fled, and there are less than 100 households still living here.

On the street of the county seat, a middle-aged man about forty years old and a subordinate dressed as a slave walked step by step, and the subordinate dressed as a slave said: "Master, let's go quickly, the county magistrate ran away overnight last night with all the gold, silver, money and food, and his family." The master asked, "Why are we leaving?" Didn't you say that Jingliao General Wang Xu was coming to Jingliao County soon? ”

The servant-dressed servant said anxiously: "It is precisely because Wang Xu is coming soon that we are leaving."

The master smiled and said: "Nu'an, you don't know, the county commander is a corrupt official, seeing that General Jingliao is coming here, he is naturally afraid, but we are different, I, Jia Hui, have been the master in Jingliao County for five years, and I have never done anything to be sorry for the people, what can he do to me when Wang Xu comes?" Why should we be afraid? On the contrary, Wang Xu's visit to Jingliao is not only harmless to us, but also the people of Jingliao County have been saved."

Nu An smirked and said, "Master, the people of Jingliao County have run away, who is the general here to help?"

Jia Hui thought for a long time and ordered: "I'll go write a notice now, you give the notice to the county soldiers, and let them paste the notice all over every corner of Jingliao County, and the intersection outside the city should also be pasted, if someone asks, you will say that General Jingliao was ordered to carry 100,000 grain to Jingliao County to help the victims, so that the victims from all over the country can come to Jingliao County."

"Yes" Nu An said worriedly, "Master, is it really good for us to do this?" If there are too many people and not enough food, the general will blame it."

Jia Hui let out a long sigh and analyzed: "If that Wang Xu is a good general who really thinks about the people, even if there is not enough food at that time, he will not blame us; But if he is a corrupt official like the county magistrate, then we will have to resign ourselves to fate."

Jia Hui said that he would do it, and after returning to the county office, he wrote dozens of notices, and Nu An handed over the notices to the only dozens of county soldiers in the county office; In less than half a day, the news that Wang Xu came to Jingliao to help the victims spread loudly, and more and more victims took refuge in Jingliao County.

At the three-way intersection ten miles outside the county seat, dozens of victims were looking at something around a big tree, and one of the victims who could read read loudly: "General Jingliao, I am ordered to send grain to the victims, and I will arrive in Jingliao County in a few days, and the victims along the way."

As soon as the notice was read, dozens of victims who had just been half-dead suddenly rushed towards Jingliao County like chicken blood.

Fifty miles west of Jingliao, this is the place where Wang Xu's army rests, in order to save time, Wang Xu did not order the soldiers to build another camp, but buried the pot on the spot to make rice; Wang Xu sat on a big bluestone, the little girl was tired and sweating, and fell asleep on Wang Xu's lap.

Zhang Meng walked to Wang Xu's side angrily and said: "Lord, Hu Ling's house is too hateful, he followed our army twenty miles, we advanced, he followed, I led the army to chase, he ran faster than anyone else." ”

Wang Xu said: "Scared soldier, what are you angry with him, don't pay attention to him, he doesn't dare to attack if he wants to, and he is afraid of being punished when he goes back, let him follow if he wants to."
