Chapter 66: Bing Feng
A drop of cold snow water quietly dripped from the treetops and splashed on the tip of Guo Tu's nose, Guo Tu shivered, shook his head, and inadvertently swept over the dense forest on the left, and suddenly found a group of birds startling from the forest. Guo Tu's heart sank suddenly, the empty mountains were lonely, the birds were frightened by the forest, could it be that there were ambushes in the forest!?
But Guo Tu quickly denied this speculation, if the bandits can also use the trick, then the sows will go up the tree.
Zhao Qian suddenly tilted his ears and asked Guo Tu in a deep voice: "Gongzhi, what sound?" ”
Guo Tu listened for a moment, and said in confusion: "There is only the sound of soldiers fighting." ”
Zhao Qian said: "No, the sound comes from the left front, not the sound of fighting." ”
"Front left?"
Guo Tu's heart skipped a beat uncontrollably when he heard this, he suddenly turned his head, listened attentively for a moment, and sure enough, he heard a strange sound, like thunder, and like a flood peak, only a moment later, the sound had been amplified a lot, and the archers who stayed in place and did not participate in the meat game also heard this sound, and turned their heads to investigate.
"Rhythm ~~"
The war horses under Zhao Qian and Guo Tu's crotch began to make noise at the same time, as if they felt some kind of danger.
"Flag! A big flag! ”
A sharp-eyed archer suddenly screamed in dismay, pointing to the left front.
Zhao Qian and Guo Tu gasped at the same time, only to see a blood-colored banner appear strangely from the dense forest under the dark sky, and the poignant flag was embroidered with the four golden characters of "Eight Hundred Liukou". Under the blood-colored flag, a cavalry under the black pressure was rushing over the mountains, the horses' hooves were flying, the mud and grass were splashing, and the hideous killing machine filled the heavens and the earth, and the shiny steel knife was already held high in the air, flashing with a cold glow.
The archers of the Han army began to twitch, looking left and right, their eyes revealing inexplicable fear.
"Eight hundred rogues!" Zhao Qian gasped and said in a trembling voice, "It turned out to be Nanyang's Eight Hundred Liukou!" Why did they come to Yingchuan, Yuan Shupifu, kill me~~"
It turned out to be all cavalry! Guo Tu's heart was cold, his eyebrows were tightly locked, the infantry team of the Han army had become entangled with the bandits on the opposite side, it was impossible to collect troops at this time, although there were few people, the eight hundred Liukou were all cavalry with strong impact, and they also picked out at this time to suddenly kill, it was really nerve-wracking, was there really no way to resist?
……
Ma Yue rode his horse and raised his sword, running at the front of the riding array, the blood-colored cloak fluttered and crackled from behind his shoulders, the gentle slope retreated like a tide from under his feet, the dense array of archers of the Han army was like a sheep to be slaughtered, slowly unfolding in front of him, Ma Yue looked up to the sky and roared, and the cold killing machine poured out of his eyes, in the eyes of the Han soldiers, he saw fear, endless fear...... That's what you want! The eight hundred rogues not only want to destroy the Han army from the **, but also destroy them mentally!
"Death~~"
Ma Yue shouted, struggling to ride the horse, the war horse neighed and rose into the air, the volley spanned ten steps away, and fell from the air like a thousand mountains, the dazzling cold light confused the eyes of the Han soldiers, and the heavy thick-backed steel knife had been slashed down by the powerful habitual surname.
"Poof~"
Blood splattered, and before a Han archer could scream, the whole thing had been split in half.
Behind Ma Yue, eight hundred rogues came like a tide, and each of them straightened up, raised the waist knife in his hand, and made a chopping motion.
"Boom~~"
The cavalry formation of the eight hundred Liukou with a powerful habitual surname, like a monstrous wave, overwhelming the sky, instantly submerged the poor Han archers, thousands of sharp waist knives ruthlessly cut down, drawing thousands of strange arcs in the air, in an instant, the continuous screams rushed into the night, and the powerless archers splashed blood on the spot, and they wailed and rolled down the dust.
Opposite the edge of the jungle.
Deng Mao struggled to slash a sword, slashing heavily on a Han army's shield, the wooden shield exploded instantly, when the Han army was stunned, Deng Mao's steel knife had already rotated, lightly slashed between his neck, blood splashed, and a head had been thrown in the air. Deng Mao slashed the Han army with a knife, and suddenly turned around, only to see that Ma Yue's 800 rogues had already ambushed their troops, like wolves entering a flock of sheep, and launched a merciless slaughter and poke at the archers in the rear of the Han army.
The fanatical passion ignited from Deng Mao's eyes, and the depression caused by the heavy casualties of the bandits was suddenly swept away, Deng Mao jumped up, jumped on a boulder, raised his arms and shouted: "Brothers, the eight hundred rogues of the leader of the horse have been killed, we are about to win, and we will fight with the Han army~~"
"Spelled~~"
The bandits responded one after another, picking up hoes, sticks, and stones to launch a frantic counterattack against the Han army, and the situation that was about to collapse turned into a melee again. The Han army commander who had been supervising the formation since the rear stared at Deng Mao, who was roaring with arms on the boulder, a trace of cold murderous intent flashed in his eyes, and an iron-tired bow quietly came to his hand.
"Huh~"
The sharp sound of breaking the air sounded, Deng Mao's body slammed hard, and then lowered his head and stared at his chest, only to see a piece of arrow Ling trembling slightly in his chest, Deng Mao struggled to raise his right arm, pointing forward, there was red blood overflowing from the corners of his mouth, anger retreated from his body like a tide, and his originally bright eyes gradually dimmed.
"Uh~~"
Deng Mao sighed softly, fell to his knees on the boulder, his head drooped weakly, and a piece of blood from the wolf pierced through his vest, flickering with icy cold flames.
The captain of the Han army smiled coldly, put away the iron tire bow and was about to swing the knife to rejoin the battle group, the deadly slash suddenly came from behind, the cold texture swept through his chest, and a cavalry like a cavalry from hell had galloped past him, and the sharp steel knife in the knight's hand was flashing with a strange cold light.
Zhou Cang slashed with his sword, never stopped, and rode his horse to pounce on the next Han soldier.
When Ma Yue and Guan Hai led 300 cavalry to attack the Han archers, Zhou Cang and Pei Yuanshao led the remaining 600 cavalry to cover the rear of the Han army's infantry, and formed a front and rear attack with the bandits against the Han army.
The captain of the Han army slowly lowered his head, the iron armor on his chest was still there, and a trace of red blood suddenly splashed out from the crack in the iron armor, forming an oblique line of blood, and the next moment, he was surprised to see that the lower half of his body was slowly sliding off his lower half of his body...... "Ah~~~ uh! ”
The captain of the Han army howled violently, and then it stopped abruptly, and the two lifeless corpses fell to the ground.
(ps: For the sake of the swordsman writing so bloody, let's reward two monthly passes) "Kill~~"
Zhao Qian flipped his hand and drew his sword, howling bitterly, and rushed forward on his horse, trying to fight the trapped beasts.
The tower-like figure of Guan Hai stepped on the corpses all over the ground and flew in, and greeted Zhao Qian coldly.
"When~"
Zhao Qian's long sword slashed lightly on Guan Hai's long knife, making a crisp sound, and a huge anti-shock force came, Zhao Qian's mouth was numb, the long sword had already flown away, and a dazzling arc was cut through the air, and it stabbed into the head of an unlucky Han archer, and the Han archer's wolf steps slammed down, and then fell straight down like sawn wood.
"Die~~"
Guan Hai shouted violently, and with a pinch of his left hand, Zhao Qian had already picked up Zhao Qian from the horse, Zhao Qian was in the air, Guan Hai's long knife had been stabbed between his chest and abdomen like a storm, and in this short moment since the sky landed, Guan Hai stabbed at least dozens of knives, and Zhao Qian's chest and abdomen were already blurred with flesh and blood.
"Drink~~"
Ma Yue's eyes sharpened, and the steel knife in his hand slashed out like lightning, and the sharp blade split the air, emitting a sharp scream.
Guo Tu's face turned pale in an instant, he closed his eyes in fear, and a trace of cold hit him instantly, Guo Tu felt a chill on the side of his neck, and then there was a buzzing aftersound that lasted for a long time. Could it be that this is what death tastes like? Guo Tuzhan opened his eyes tremblingly, and instantly met a pair of cold and fierce eyes, and suddenly screamed in fright.
A sneer of disdain bloomed at the corner of Ma Yue's mouth, he was greedy for life and afraid of death!
"What's your name?"
"Little ...... Villain Guo ...... Guo Tu. ”
"Guo Tu?"
Ma Yue's eyes were cold when he heard this, and he looked up and down at the bright and decent brocade robe and silk fur on Guo Tu's body, and a sly smile immediately appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"Come on, tie this guy up!"
Ma Yue gave an order, and the two rogues pounced like wolves, pulled Guo Tu off the horse's back and pushed him to the ground, and in Guo Tu's struggle and wail, they quickly tied the gang into a sturdy zongzi.
……
The rain fell, stopped, and the fighting was finally over.
The horse galloped slowly over the hillside, rushed up a raised hill, and when he reached the top of the mountain, he pulled the reins of the horse fiercely, and the horse suddenly stood up with a neigh, and the front hooves kicked in the air, and then slammed to the ground. Ma Yue sat on the horse's back, holding up the thick-backed steel sword, proudly looking down on the entire battlefield.
All the rogues and bandits, as long as they still had a breath, got up from the ground, and everyone held their breath and stared at the horse leap on the top of the mountain, and the fanatical worship was flooding their eyes. At this moment, in their eyes, Ma Yue is not a human, but a god!
"Roar~~~"
Ma Yue raised the steel knife in his hand fiercely, and roared violently to shatter the heavens.
"Roar~~"
Everyone raised their weapons and shouted wildly, like countless furious beasts, gathered together and roared. Under the mountain, Guo Tu's face was pale, and he looked at the man on the top of the mountain who was as violent as a lion with extremely frightened eyes, this man's appeal was really suffocating.
……
Gwangjong City, the last fortress of the Yellow Turban Army.
"Whew~~"
By the light of lightning, the Yellow Turban believers on the city tower saw more than a dozen black shadows flying from the sky, and they quickly magnified and pressed down fiercely towards the city wall.
"Trebuchet, it's trebuchet, quickly find a place to hide, find a place to hide~~"
Zhang Liang roared hoarsely, but no one heard his voice, and the Yellow Turban believers on the city tower had fallen into a frenzy, unaware of the impending doom.
"Boom~~"
"Boom~~~"
The continuous loud noise shattered the dark void, and the sturdy walls of Guangzong City trembled violently, moaning in pain, and the originally smooth and smooth walls were instantly pitted and full of greenery, and from time to time broken bricks peeled off the walls, falling into the deep moat with the dust in the sky.
"Uh~~"
"Help~"
"Pull me up~~"
"Don't step on my hand, oops~~"
"Second child, second child, where did you go?"
Screams and shouts rushed up from the tower of Guangzong Castle, and the originally fanatical Yellow Turban believers were in chaos in an instant, and many people were caught off guard, and fell headlong from the city head in a violent tremor, and some were lucky enough to catch the female wall, but their good fortune only stopped there, and soon someone mercilessly stepped on their hands, and then fell under the city wall with a howl and pain, and fell to their deaths in a trench full of antlers.
Another boulder fell from the sky.
"Big brother, get out of the way!"
Zhang Liang's soul was all gone, and suddenly Zhang Jiao slammed into the crowded Yellow Turban believers, and he could dodge a few steps to the right, and the next moment, a huge black shadow had already roared, smashing down where Zhang Liang was standing, and with a loud bang, it splashed the sky with broken soil and choked dust.
More than a dozen Yellow Turban believers who didn't have time to dodge were smashed into a ball of flesh in an instant, and when the dust and smoke cleared, through the dazzling flashes that passed from time to time, the surrounding Yellow Turban believers were horrified to find that a boulder weighing hundreds of catties had smashed into the ground, and in the gap between the boulder and the blue brick wall, there were two bare feet left behind, and a pair of bloody palms were still struggling slightly.
"Wow~~"
The sound of collapse suddenly sounded, and the poor city wall could no longer withstand such a violent destruction, and in an instant a large corner collapsed, and the Yellow Turban believers who were crowded on this tower were wrapped in broken bricks and broken walls, tumbling and tumbling down to the bottom of the city tower, and were buried alive in the dust of the broken earth.
The Han army was in the rear.
Zhu Jun's expression was as cold as frost, his right arm pressed forward lightly again, the herald galloped away with the command flag in hand, and the poignant sound of the horn resounded in the sky: "The general has an order, the archers ~~~ attack ~~"
……
Deng Mao's body was coldly presented at Ma Yue's feet, Liao Hua and Peng Tuo knelt on one knee, their faces were full of pain, behind the two, the bandits from Qingdang Mountain, Qingniuping, and Baihu were lined up in a scattered formation, and after a fierce battle, there were about 1,000 people left, most of whom were injured and looked sad.
The combat effectiveness of the Han army is not blown out, although Zhao Qian's Han army is only a county soldier, but the combat power is still much stronger than the bandits, if it is not for Ma Yue's eight hundred Liukou happened to arrive, killing Zhao Qian by surprise, even if Deng Mao and the three of them joined forces, gathered more than 2,000 bandits and the Han army to fight a decisive battle, there is no chance of winning.
The bandits suffered heavy casualties, which was expected by Ma Yue.
If it weren't for relying on the bandits to consume the sharp energy of the Han army, it would not be so easy for the eight hundred Liukou to defeat the Han army! Eight hundred rogues are elites, and they are also Ma Yue's hard work, he doesn't want these elite soldiers to be wasted in such a melee, if he has a choice, he would rather sacrifice a hundred bandits than sacrifice a rogue bandit.
Of course, Ma Yue will never say these thoughts, but can only hide them in his heart.
"Brothers of Qingdangshan, you are the good brothers of Deng Da Dang, that is, my Ma Yue's good brothers, Deng Da Dang has gone, but my Ma Yue is still there! From today onwards, as long as I have a breath of Ma Yue, I will never leave my brothers alone, I will never starve my brothers if I have a bite of Ma Yue to eat, and I will never be thirsty for you if I have a mouthful of soup to drink! Eight hundred rogues swear to be with you to the death, share difficulties and blessings! ”
"Share the hardships and share the blessings!"
Behind Ma Yue, the originally silent rogues raised their arms and roared.
Expressions of gratitude swelled in the eyes of each of the bandits, and these once simple farmers fell to their knees in excitement and shouted in a disorderly manner.
"We'll go with you."
"We listen to the big boss."
"I'll sell you this hundred catties of meat, Lao Qiu."
"Big boss, you must take the brothers to avenge Deng Da's family~~"
Liao Hua and Peng Tuo exchanged a look, and they both saw the worship from the other party's eyes, they had already seen Ma Yue's soldiers, and the bravery of the eight hundred Liukou was even Zhao Qian's elite Han army! Ma Yue is also righteous, what else is there to say about such a leader, it is worth selling his life to him!
Liao Hua and Peng Tuo, like Ma Yue, are all from the Yellow Turban, and the same identity made them easily accept Ma Yue from the bottom of their hearts.
"Big boss, Liao Hua is willing to do the work of the dog's teeth!"
"Big boss, Peng Tuo is willing to serve the dogs and horses!"
Ma Yue took a step forward, helped Liao Hua and Peng Tuo up, and said in a deep voice: "The two masters, there is one thing that will be fortunate to you." ”
Liao Hua and Peng Tuo bowed their hands at the same time: "Willing to serve." ”
Ma Yue said: "Although the Han army is defeated, but our army is also tired and tired, and the lack of food and grass is difficult to last, the top priority is to seize a city before the government knows the news of the defeat of the Han army, for the brothers to recuperate and recover. ”
Liao Hua lost his voice and said: "The big boss intends to attack Xiangcheng? ”
Peng Tuo also persuaded: "Big leader, Xiangcheng has a strong city to defend, and there are heavy troops to garrison, although the eight hundred Liukou are brave, but they are all cavalry, and they lack siege equipment, so it may be difficult to get it." ”
Ma Yue said in a condensed voice: "Don't bother the two masters, Xiangcheng, take an oath!" ”
"This~~"
Liao Hua and Peng Tuo were awe-inspiring, seeing Ma Yue's confident appearance, not like a joke, let alone a look of going to death, suddenly remembered that the eight hundred Liukou had captured Nanyang County to govern Wancheng, Wancheng was still able to capture, and Xiangcheng was naturally not a problem.
In fact, according to Ma Yue's original intention, he was unwilling to bring these women and children, bringing them could only drag down the army, and everyone was played to death! But the women and children of Qingdang Mountain are the families of the bandits after all, and Deng Mao has just died heroically, if Ma Yue orders to abandon the women and children in the mountains at this time, it will be chilling.
……
Luoyang, Deyang Palace.
The Spirit Emperor was perched high on the dragon chair, yawning and listless.
The general He Jin made a look, Taifu Zhang Wen understood, knelt down under the Danqi out of class, raised his teeth and said: "Your Majesty, Xiliang Beigong Boyu, Wang Guo, Bian Zhang, Han Sui and others rebelled and claimed to be generals, Jincheng Taishou Chen Yi was killed, and the Liangzhou assassin Geng Yan rushed for help for 800 li, saying that the situation in Liangzhou collapsed and the people were in danger of being upside down, and I implore my emperor to send troops to conscript. ”
Emperor Ling said lazily: "If you want to play, you will take Qing as the main general, Zhou Shen, the captain of the military academy, and Dong Zhuo, the captain of the Xiao cavalry, as the deputy generals, and lead the army of 5,000 to conquer it." ”
Zhang Wen shouted long live, got up happily, exchanged glances with He Jin, and retreated.
Zhongchang servant Zhang Rang's brows jumped, knowing that He Jin was going to take the opportunity to install henchmen to go out to command the army, and to collude with the inside and outside to grasp the military power of the Han Dynasty. Zhang Rangsui was not to be left behind, knelt down in front of the Imperial Case of Emperor Ling, and said in a strange manner: "Your Majesty, now that the Yellow Turban has not been extinguished, the bandits in various states are still fierce, and the imperial court is using troops everywhere, resulting in the emptiness of the defense of Gyeonggi and Sanfu. ”
Since the Yellow Turban disaster, the imperial court has repeatedly sent troops to recruit, and the elite Han army of the second battalion in the north and south has almost been exhausted.
Hearing this, Emperor Ling was shocked and said, "I almost missed a big thing, how can this be good?" ”
Zhang Rang said: "You can set up eight captains in the West Garden, recruit new soldiers, practice at night, and if you enter, you can protect Jinggi and Sanfu without worry, and if you go out, you can command the world's military horses and eliminate bandits." ”
Emperor Ling said: "Good, as Qing said, set up eight captains in the West Garden. ”
Zhang Rang said: "Zhongchang is a servant Jian Shuoyun, who is capable of writing and martial arts, and is quite familiar with the art of war, and can be a military captain." ”
Emperor Ling said: "Quasi-play." ”
He Jin was shocked when he heard this, in this way, Zhongchang Servant Jian Shuo's eunuch is going to command all the military horses in the thirteen states of the Han Dynasty? Then he hurriedly went out of the class and said: "Your Majesty, the ministers ......"
Emperor Ling yawned again, and said impatiently: "The general Hugh will say more and retreat." ”
Zhang Rangyin smiled, flicked the dust and walked to the front of the golden steps, and said in a sharp voice: "The court meeting is over, and the hundred officials will strike the court~~"
He Jin retreated to the general's mansion, and he was depressed, Zhang Rang relied on the favor of Emperor Ling, and set up the eight captains of Xiyuan to be powerful, not only to guard the Han army of Jinggi and Sanfu under his command, but also to take the right to dispatch the world's military horses in his pocket, and he, the general of the dynasty, almost became a decoration and a puppet.
When He Jin was drinking in front of the fire, he suddenly reported that the general He Miao and Sikong Yuan Feng and Situ Yuan Kui had come to visit the house.
He Jin was about to send someone to invite, and when he heard this, he said, "Hurry up, please." ”
After a while, He Miao, Yuan Feng, and Yuan Kui entered the inner room, and as soon as they saw He Jin, Yuan Feng said: "The general is in trouble!" ”
He Jin's expression moved, and he asked, "Why did Zhou Yang (Yuan Fengbiaozi) save me?" ”
Yuan Fengdao: "The eunuch set up eight captains, intending to control the world's military power, the ambition is not small, if the military power is in the hands of the eunuch, the world is in danger." The general can enter the palace overnight to meet the queen, and must install reliable people as captains of the various departments, so as not to monopolize the power of the eunuchs, which will be irretrievable. ”
He Jin high-fived and said, "Good, but who can be the captain?" ”
He Miao proposed: "Highway (Yuan Shu) is a young hero, and he has newly defeated 800 Liukou in Nanyang, and he can be a lieutenant of the Chinese Military Academy!" ”
Situ Yuan Kui said: "Meng De (Cao Ying) is upright and upright, and regards eunuchs as feuds, but he is still a military captain. ”
He Miao muttered: "Ben Chu (Yuan Shao) is also quite familiar with military affairs, and he can be a military captain. ”
Sikong Yuan Feng said: "Bao Hong and Feng Fang are also jealous of eunuchs, and they can help the military captains left and right." ”
He Miao added: "The waiters Chun Yuqiong and Zhao Rong can be the left and right captains. ”
He Jin said: "I should immediately draw up a list and submit it to the queen to play the Son of Heaven." ”
Sikong Yuan Feng said: "The eunuch is hated by the generals in the army, and it is difficult to find a suitable candidate in a hurry. ”
……
Luyang, Yuan Shu stood at the head of the city, looking at the starry sky, and sighed for a long time.
The army that went out to Yingchuan has gathered in Luyang, and the grain, grass and baggage are still on the way from the counties. This trip to Yingchuan and the extermination of the 800 Liukou is just a pretense, but the real purpose is to take the opportunity to take Yingchuan into the bag.
The figure of Cheng Jinshang of Nanyang County followed behind Yuan Shu like a shadow all the time, and at this moment, seeing Yuan Shu looking up at the starry sky and sighing, he couldn't help but move his heart and asked, "General, why is he worried about the old lady?" ”
Yuan Shu sighed: "I am entrusted by the general, out of Nanyang and the bandits rebelled, the old lady gains and loses, life and death are uncertain, I am afraid that the rogue will take it as a threat, and I am afraid that the general will be responsible, how can I not worry?" ”
Jin Shangdao: "The lower officials have a plan, but they can ensure that the general is not responsible, and the rogues have nothing to threaten." ”
Yuan Shu hurriedly said: "Will the plan be released?" ”
Jin Shang's eyes flashed with a hint of coldness, and he asked instead of answering: "Does the general know what the general is worried about?" ”
Yuan Shu asked, "What?" ”
Jin Shang replied: "The general is worried, the old lady is in the hands of thieves and the thieves use it as a threat, making it difficult for him to be in a dilemma, loyalty and filial piety. ”
Yuan Shu's eyes were cold, and he said in a low voice: "What Yuan Xiu means by his words, the old lady will not be responsible when he sees the great general?" ”
Jin Shangyin replied compassionately: "I'm afraid that I'm not worried but happy!" ”
Yuan Shu's eyes lit up and fell into deep thought. If according to Jin Shang's plan, regardless of He Zhen's life or death at this time, and immediately report the news of He Zhen's death to the general He Jin, then no matter whether He Zhen is dead or alive, eight hundred rogues are not enough to blackmail him or the general, then, the general He Jin will really be as Jin Shang guessed, only caring about his loyalty and filial piety, and not caring about the life and death of his father?
After a long time, Yuan Shushi let out a sigh of relief and said indifferently: "It's late at night, Yuan will rest and return." ”
This is a political adventure, which is directly related to the future career and the rise and fall of the Yuan family, and Yuan Shu cannot but be cautious.
……
South Gate of Xiangcheng.
The black and oppressive Han army iron cavalry stood under the city tower, no one shouted, the horse did not neigh, the horse never unsheathed, and the arrow never wound, but the murderous aura stirred between heaven and earth made the defenders on the city tower almost suffocated. A white-faced and bearded civil official poked his head out of the castle tower and asked tremblingly, "Who are you waiting for?" Why did you lead the army here? ”
"Bastard, I am Lord Zhao's account master, Guo Tu is also! Hurry up and open the gates of the city and welcome the army of the imperial court into the city! If you neglect the imperial army and delay the important military aircraft, you are the only one who asks! ”
Guo Tu raised his head, his face was pale, and he shouted loudly to reprimand the Xiangcheng order on the city tower. Beside Guo Tu, Ma Yue's face was frosty and his eyes were blazing, which made people dare not face it.
Xiangcheng Ling frowned and said, "Lord Zhao's account is thin? Why don't you see Lord Zhao in person? And what are the proofs? ”
"Bastard!" Guo Tu scolded, "This official is the certificate, how can it be fake!?" ”
Xiangcheng Ling was hesitant, and Ma Yue shouted: "This general will lead the division here, people are sleepy and horses are lacking, you can quickly open the city gate to receive grain and grass, if not, break the city, chickens and dogs will not be left!" ”
"Break the city, no chickens and dogs will be left!"
"Break the city, no chickens and dogs will be left!"
Behind Ma Yue, the black cavalry howled in response, and the defenders on the city tower were shocked with their faces like dirt and their bodies like chaff, and the captain of Xiangcheng trembled and ordered to Xiangcheng: "Big... Adults, it's still open...... Open the city gates, annoy the army of the imperial court, I ...... We're ...... I can't afford it. ”
Xiangcheng Cheng also echoed: "Yes, my lord, don't bring death to the fathers and villagers of Xiangcheng." ”
Xiangcheng Ling breathed a sigh of relief and said helplessly: "Okay, open the city gate." ”
Hearing Xiangcheng's words, Guo Tu's expression was relieved, and he thought that a small life could be saved for the time being, while Ma Yue was stunned, and the threat of force was always the most effective way to deal with such a timid magistrate who was afraid of death.
In the shrill crunch, the heavy city gate slowly opened, and the drawbridge over the moat was slowly lowered, and the fortified city was a smooth road, and the gate was already open.
Ma Yue looked back and smiled, and said sharply: "Guan Hai goes to the east gate, Pei Yuanshao goes to the west gate, Zhou Cang goes to the north gate, each leading a hundred troops, and no one person or one horse is allowed to escape!" The rest of the brothers followed me into the city, robbed money, food, and women, and killed ~~~"
"Grab money, grab food, grab women, kill~~"
In the deafening shouts of the rogues, Guan Hai, Zhou Cang and Pei Yuanshao each led a hundred horsemen towards the gates of Xiangcheng, and the remaining rogues followed Ma Yue and poured into Xiangcheng like a tide, and before the poor Han army guarding the gate could react to what was going on, a heavy steel knife had been cut down coldly, and swept between his necks.
On the city tower, Xiangcheng Ling's face turned pale for a moment, and he paused and said: "This is not the Han army, but it is a thief, and we are planning it!" ”
Xiangcheng Cheng and Xiangcheng Lieutenant all changed color, and said in a trembling voice: "My lord, the city gate has been lost, there are few troops in the city, and I am afraid that they are not opponents, so how can this be good?" ”
Xiangcheng Ling Yangtian sighed: "That's it, the matter has come to this, there is only one death." ”
After that, Xiangcheng Ling closed his eyes, jumped down from the city tower, and fell into the cold moat with a pop, Xiangcheng Cheng and Xiangcheng Wei hurriedly hid to the side of the city tower, climbed the female wall and looked down, only to see Xiangcheng Ling's figure sinking into the moat like a stone, and never floated again.
Xiangcheng Cheng and Xiangcheng Wei turned their heads with dull eyes, only to see a blood-colored banner waving in front of them, with four golden characters of "Eight Hundred Liukou" written on it.
(To be continued)
