Chapter 24: Mutual Death and Injury

Li Tong is a second-rate general, and his force is naturally not low, so at this time he led the cavalry to rush to a cloud chariot, and the wind and fire stick in his hand fell, breaking a wooden bracket alive. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

The soldiers under his command followed suit, picked up the weapons in their hands and landed on the cloud chariot, and the foot soldiers who came from the surrounding area were parried by their own peripheral cavalry, and the short soldiers were connected, and the swords were bloody.

At the same time of paying hundreds of lives, the cloud car finally fell to the ground, and some foot soldiers who could not dodge were buried, and I don't know if they can survive.

"Brothers, come with me." After speaking, Li Tong rode away first and ran to the second cloud car.

According to the gourd, just as the second cloud cart was about to fall, there was a commotion from the cavalry behind him, which was extremely abrupt in the shouting of killing.

Li Tong was about to sweep a bracket off, but he suddenly felt a strong wind in the back of his head, and it was too late to turn around, so he set up a wind and fire stick to block behind him, and when the sound of a gold and stone clashing was deafening, Li Tong was hit by a huge force and flew out and smashed on the cloud body.

Li Tong didn't have time to slow down, he saw Zhang He glaring angrily, and the water and fire prison dragon stick in his hand clicked over, Li informed that the parry was weak, and his heart was horizontal, and the wind and fire stick in his hand was swept away, and he used the last strength to hit the bracket of the cloud car, and suddenly the cloud car could not bear the force, and collapsed down, and the soldiers below were scattered, and the archers on the car were also roaring.

Li Tong grinned, and then was pointed on his eyebrows with a long stick by Zhang He and fainted.

Zhang Yan swept with a gun, forced the attacking Jizhou soldiers to retreat, and saw that Li Tong was captured, and the cavalry under his command died and surrendered, gritted his teeth and roared: "Close the city gate." ”

Immediately, the soldiers on the side came to help, covered the city gate, and resisted back to back.

The flames continued for days, and the fierce battle lasted until the evening, when the wind and snow became heavier, and the two sides had to withdraw their troops.

The number of soldiers besieging the city of Zhang He's army alone reached 5,000, not to mention some wounded soldiers, and Zhang Yan was not much better, plus 800 cavalry from the state, a total of nearly 3,000 people were lost, it can be said that the casualties on both sides were fifty-five, and Li Tong's capture also made the Montenegrin army full of haze.

"This snow is quite coincidental, if it weren't for this, the Jizhou army would have exhausted our troops, and the city would be just around the corner." Zhang Yan's lieutenant general had palpitations.

Zhang Yan didn't know what he was thinking with a calm face, but fortunately, the heavy snow closed the road, and they were able to recuperate and ask for support from the upper hall.

"General Zhang He, a total of 5,000 soldiers were killed in today's battle, and more than 1,000 soldiers lost their ability to fight, this time we brought 30,000 people, such casualties really can't withstand another time, we should have made a plan early." Geng Wu had some sad retribution.

After all, Jizhou is not like other states and counties, Jizhou has Yuan Shao's department occupying half of Jizhou, and he has the title of Marquis of Qixiang on his head, Han Fu also has to be polite, so naturally he will not follow the order, so under the elimination of one and the other, Han Fu's strength is much lower.

Zhang He frowned: "The Wancheng Imperial Court has urged the state pastor many times, and the state pastor is waiting for our good news under pressure, and now the heavy snow is closing the road, at least half a month can not be an inch, how can we still have the face to face the state pastor." ”

At this time, Zhang Juzheng, who was standing beside Yang Zaixing, walked out and arched his hand: "General Zhang, my lord has already laid a secret move, just wait for the ice and snow to melt, and the rainy season will come, and Huguan will inevitably be broken." ”

"Oh?" Geng Wu glanced at Zhang Juzheng in disbelief and found that he didn't know him.

Zhang He met with Zhang Juzheng, and hurriedly asked: "Zhang Juncheng come quickly." ”

Zhang Juzheng smiled and told Wang Li's plan, but he ignored the link that asked Zhao Yun to remind Zhang Yan.

"It's just that the lord said that if the gate is opened to release water, the lake will be diverted, and it will inevitably flow to Wei Shui, which will directly affect the people along Wei County and Yecheng, so this order to open the gate must be personally shown by Han Zhoumu."

Although Geng Wu was shocked by this plan, he was a little dissatisfied when he heard Zhang Juzheng's words, as soon as the rainy season came, the flood swept like a rolling beast, regardless of whether it was the enemy or me, if it caused casualties among the people, Han Fu had a bad reputation in vain.

Zhang Juzheng didn't give Geng Wu a chance to speak at all, Shi Shiran said: "The lord has a word first, and don't take any credit for the battle of the state, as for why he told everyone about this plan in advance, it is the lord's heart that pities the innocent lives, and gives Jizhou Mu the time to prepare, as long as the people along the Weishui coast are evacuated in advance, the losses caused will inevitably be within the control range." ”

Geng Wu felt a lot better, and Zhang He said: "In this way, I'll fix a book first, and let the state pastor decide." ”

This is understandable, although King Li's plan is vicious, as long as it is properly manipulated, it will not lose a bad reputation, and as long as the pot pass is broken, the road to the upper hall will be smooth and there will be no resistance.

Yecheng and Wei County face each other in the north and south, Wei water flows through the periphery of the two cities, and Huguan transmits letters back and forth for half a day.

Zhang He once again summoned the generals to discuss in the big tent, and opened Jizhou Mu's reply in front of everyone.

After reading it, Zhang He passed it to Geng Wu, so that Zhang He and Geng Wu were relieved, Han Fu agreed to this plan, and had already begun to arrange for the people along the coast to evacuate, only Zhao Yun blew up the rocks and released the water.

"Han Zhoumu has submitted documents to the Wancheng Imperial Court to guarantee the recovery of Huguan by the end of March." Geng Wu walked around with his hands behind his back: "And after Lord Zhou Mu decided to break the barrier of Huguan, he personally led the army and attacked Shangtang. ”

Zhang He naturally saw it, nodded and said, "In this way, we must make preparations in advance to ensure the safety of the state pastor." ”

At this time, in the Taihang Mountains, after five days of soldiers taking turns to splash water, the swamp surface has been covered with a layer of ice, and it is difficult to break it with stones.

Sure enough, there was no danger along the way, and three thin soldiers successfully arrived on the opposite bank, fixed the straw rope they brought over to a big tree, and waved their hands, Zhou Yu also arrived safely on the other side under the support of two soldiers, and the rest of the soldiers followed suit and crossed the swamp one after another.

After Zhao Yun's palace, he was the last person to cross, and when the soldiers saw Zhao Yun stepping on the ground, they hugged the soldiers they knew and cried.

Zhao Yun and Zhou Yu also had smiles on their faces, and they had established a deep relationship with these simple generals.

"What a miserable death." Looking at the corpse on the ground, even Zhao Yun, who had killed countless people, frowned a little, let alone Zhou Yu, who was already vomiting at the moment.

"Gong Jin, don't look at it, the corpse can't prove anything."

"No, I always felt like something was wrong." Zhou Yu waved his hand, insisting on staying here.

The corpses were a little swollen, and the decay was invisible, but the strange thing was that there was still black pus flowing out of the body, exuding a foul smell.

"My lord, there are a few soldiers who are in trouble, do you want to go over and take a look?" At this time, Zhao Yun's personal guards came to report.

"What's the situation?" Before Zhao Yun could speak, Zhou Yu asked first.

The guard shook his head, he was also told by someone else to come to pass the word.

"Let's go, we want to see the soldiers." Zhou Yu and Zhao Yun left together.

When passing by a few chatting soldiers, I heard one of them whisper: "There are no birds in this deep mountain and old forest, and the original cold is purple, but now the new field is half cold." ”

Zhou Yu was stunned, stopped, grabbed the man's shoulder and said, "What did you just say?" ”

"I... I... I" The soldier didn't say a reason for a long time, obviously frightened by Zhou Yu's face.

Zhou Yu didn't embarrass him, let go of his hand, and walked forward in a daze, Zhao Yun followed behind worriedly, thinking that Gong Jin had been stunned.

When I came to the camp, I saw a group of soldiers gathered together, three of them were lying motionless on the ground, several of them were in different shapes, the most serious one had a swollen face, and he couldn't even see his eyes, and there were red lines scattered on it, which looked very infiltrating.

"Can anyone tell me what's going on."

When the soldiers saw Zhao Yun and Zhou Yu coming, they automatically made a way out.

"My lord, the three of them didn't know what was going on, and suddenly they fell to the ground foaming at the mouth, and their bodies began to swell, and they were very fast, visible to the naked eye." A soldier explained: "And there are soldiers who know some medical skills who have come to see it, but they can't see why." ”

At this moment, the red lines on the face of the soldier whose whole face was swollen cracked, and black pus accompanied by blood remained, and the unconscious soldier howled miserably at this moment, and actually scratched it with his hand, and suddenly more openings cracked, and his face was extremely terrifying, and he died after twitching for a long time, but the pus kept flowing.

Zhou Yu was stunned, everything that happened to this soldier reminded him of the corpse he had seen before, the same fear, the same crack, the same pus.

"Go, call those villagers."

After a while, Liu Dadang and others came over: "My lord, you called me?" ”

"Go and see how the soldier is doing, and know why?"

"Wait." Zhao Yun's eyes were sharp, and he happened to see a black spot on a villager's face, and if he looked closely, it should be a mosquito, but where did the mosquito come from in this winter.
