Chapter 154: Soldiers Coming to the City

"What's going on?" Lu Buhuo turned over and sat up, and asked in a loud voice, "What's the sound outside?" ”

"General, it's not good!" Lu Bu's voice fell, and Hou Cheng's figure broke into the big tent in a panic, and said urgently, "Ma Yuejun has broken through the Yuanmen, and the big camp is about to be unable to hold it." ”

"What!?" Lu Bu gritted his teeth and said, "This bastard surnamed Cao can't even hold the big camp, come on, bring this nest to the general~~"

Hou Cheng said bitterly: "General, the surname Cao has been killed in battle. ”

"Huh?" Lu Bu said in a condensed voice, "Are you dead?" Cheaper this guy. ”

As he was talking, the shouting and killing outside the big tent was much closer, and a wounded infantry colonel rushed into the big tent and said breathlessly: "General~~ General, the brothers are about to be unable to hold on, withdraw, withdraw quickly." ”

"General Ben will not retreat!" Lu Bu said sharply, "Take the halberd~~"

"General, retreat!"

Hou Cheng and the soldiers in the tent fell to their knees.

Lu Bu listened to the argument, kicked Hou Cheng who was kneeling in front of him, and said sharply: "Get out of the way, take the halberd~~"

Hou Cheng took a step forward and hugged Lu Bu's thigh, and begged: "General, stay in the green mountains, don't be afraid of no firewood, let's withdraw!" ”

"Ahh

Lu Bu roared, swung out a fist, and actually punched the table in front of him into two, making a loud bang, and the items placed on the table were scattered all over the place. ”

Hou Cheng snatched out the big tent first, only to see that the entire camp had been churning like boiling water, and from time to time rockets were falling in the air, igniting the flammable things in the camp, and there were red fires everywhere, burning people's hair, Lu Bu was wrapped in gauze on his head to find the wrong direction, and accidentally hit a burning fire, and the robe on his body burned in an instant.

Hou Cheng hurriedly stepped forward, extinguished the fire on Lu Bu's body with his robe, and then pulled Lu Bu and said, "General be careful, please go this way." ”

Lu Bu grabbed Hou Cheng in a panic and let Hou Cheng lead him forward.

"Don't go, Lu Bu!"

"Don't go, Lu Bu!"

"Don't go, Lu Bu!"

Hou Cheng led dozens of soldiers to escort Lu Bukankan to the ferry, and suddenly heard a continuous shout not far behind him, like a landslide and the ground cracked, in the blazing firelight, but seeing the sword light, the figures of the people, everywhere there were enemy figures, and the nearest group of horse leaping thieves was only thirty steps away from the ferry.

"You guys, and you." Hou Cheng swept the soldiers of Bingzhou guarding the ferry with the iron gun in his hand, and ordered in a loud voice, "Hold the ferry, anyone who dares to approach the ferry will be killed!" ”

"Yes."

Dozens of soldiers stationed at the ferry roared and guarded the ferry with swords on their shoulders. Hou Cheng and dozens of personal soldiers helped Lu Bu board one of the ferries, and when he was about to give the order to cross the river, suddenly a sharp-eyed personal soldier pointed to the wide river surface in front of him and screamed fiercely: "General, look, there is a raft on the river." ”

"Huh!?"

Hou Cheng gasped, Huo Ran looked back, only to see that on the wide water in front of him, I don't know when there were a few more rafts, through the sky-high fire lit by the camp behind, you can clearly see that there is a big man like an iron tower standing proudly on a raft in front of him, and the muscles of the big man ** exude bronze skin under the light of the fire, and he knows that he is a ruthless character at a glance.

On several rafts behind the big man, there were dozens of sturdy men with the same upper body, all holding shiny and sharp waist knives, murderous and blocking the way.

"Want to go? There are no doors! The shirtless man on the raft shouted, "On the orders of the military division, Zhou Cang has been waiting here for a long time, haha~~"

"Hahaha~~"

Behind the big man, dozens of shirtless and strong men followed Yang Tian and laughed.

Lu Bu's eyes were entangled in gauze and he couldn't see anything, so he had to ask Hou Chengdao: "Hou Cheng, what happened?" ”

Hou Cheng gasped and said to Lu Bu: "General, there are people blocking the way on the river, there are many enemy soldiers, and our army is small, I am afraid it will be difficult to resist, why don't you return to the Hexi camp for the time being?" ”

"General, no." A personal soldier hurriedly persuaded, "The big camp has been broken by the enemy, and you can only throw yourself into the dead if you turn back, why not rush forward at the risk of death, and maybe you can break through the blockage of the enemy's raft and break through the encirclement by luck!" The villain is not talented, and he is willing to be the forerunner and fight a bloody way for the general. ”

Seeing that a pawn was so brave, Hou Cheng felt embarrassed in his heart, pulled the iron gun in his hand forward, and said sharply: "Brothers, kill!" ”

……

Meiji, the city of four gates.

The slaves who were exhausted by the intense labor of more than ten consecutive days were divided into four groups and driven into the city of the four gates, and when the heavy gates of the city were slammed shut, the defenders suddenly appeared on the walls around the urn city, and each defender had a longbow in his hand, and the sharp wolf's teeth and arrows were already on the string.

By this time, even the most stupid slaves already knew what fate awaited them.

"You thieves, words don't count." A Hun slave roared angrily, "What you promised us, as long as we surrender, you won't kill us, as long as we have done enough hard labor for three years, you will return us to freedom, why lie and lie, why kill us?" ”

"Why lie?"

"Why did you kill us?"

The helpless and desperate slaves roared angrily, and the slaves who approached the gate frantically pounded the thick gate with their own flesh and blood, trying to knock the closed gate open, but it was all in vain.

Gao Shun stood on the tower of the city with his sword pressed, looking down at the slaves in the urn city with an expressionless face, the slaves were crying, roaring, scolding, and slapping, and they had become a mess of porridge. Witnessing the faces of the slaves before they died, the expression on Gao Shun's face was neither happy nor sad, and some were just calm and indifferent.

Only veterans who are accustomed to seeing bloody rain and bloody battles and have experienced countless tragic bloody battles will reveal this calmness and indifference from their bones.

"Archers ~~ ready."

Gao Shun took out his sword, raised it coldly above the top, his eyes were cold, and the soldiers of the camp standing on the city tower raised the longbow in their hands, and suddenly, the longbows had been filled, and the cold arrow clusters had been aimed at the unarmed slaves in the urn city.

The veterans, who were accustomed to seeing life and death, had cold eyes and unwavering expressions, while some of the soldiers who had never been on the battlefield closed their eyes in horror, not daring to look at the purgatory-like scene under the urn city.

"Shoot the arrows!"

Gao Shun shouted, the high sword fell coldly, and the bowstring sounded, and the arrows rained down, covering the slaves crowded in the urn city endlessly, and the screams and wails were intertwined in an instant, and the helpless slaves fell down one by one, falling in a pool of blood.

……

"Tuk Tuk Tuk~~"

In the dull sound of ruin, the momentum of the ferry's progress slammed into several rafts at a rapid pace, and by the powerful habit of advancing against each other, the sharpened stakes at the front of the felling easily pierced the hull of the ferry, and in an instant the ferry and the raft were connected together.

"Let's go down to Lao Tzu!"

Zhou Cang roared, the long wooden pole in his hand swept over, swept the more than a dozen soldiers standing on the bow of the boat into the river, and then supported the raft with the wooden pole and jumped away, the tower-like body had already swept into the air like a big bird, and jumped onto the bow of the ferry.

"Boom!"

Zhou Cang's feet landed on the bow of the boat, making a muffled sound, and his heavy body shook the ferry, and two more soldiers standing on the side of the boat stood on the side, screaming and falling into the river.

"Kill!"

Hou Cheng roared, and slammed his gun straight at Zhou Cang, Zhou Cang laughed, supported the deck with a long wooden pole, and the tower-like body jumped up again, and then fell down on the widest side of the ferry, and Zhou Cang's two hundred catties of meat smashed heavily on the side of the ferry with his habitual surname, causing a violent shaking in an instant.

Hou Cheng's footing was unstable, and he had fallen on the deck in embarrassment, his hands fluttered twice, and the iron gun in his hand had already flown out far away with a snort and plunged into the river.

"Haha."

Zhou Cang laughed twice, rushed forward in two steps and flew up and kicked Hou Cheng into the water, Hou Cheng choked twice after falling into the water, and then struggled to surface, wailing bitterly: "Help~~ Help, help, I surrender, help me, woo wow~~ Goo goo doo ~~"

"It's rubbish." Zhou Cang laughed and said quickly, "The brothers have listened carefully, and no one is allowed to save him." ”

"Yes."

The water thieves behind Zhou Cang agreed with a bang.

"Hey, hey."

Zhou Cang chuckled twice, then turned around and waved the long wooden pole in his hand casually, and the last dozen or so remaining soldiers on the ferry retreated again and again, hugging Lu Bu and retreating to the stern of the ferry, and then retreating back and about to fall into the river, although Lu Bu couldn't see it, he could hear it, so he was furious at that time: "Take General Ben's Fang Tian Painting Halberd." ”

"Still want to be a hero?" Zhou Cang smiled coldly, looked back at the soldiers behind him and said, "Brothers, I overturned this big ship for Lao Tzu." ”

"Okay."

The thieves who boarded the ferry agreed, and all the people rushed to the left side of the ferry, and when the ferry came to the side and rushed to the right, after a few repetitions, the ferry was reversed, and the dozen or so soldiers who refused to let go of the boat and Lu Bu were detained into the river together.

"Poof."

Zhou Cang jumped up, a fierce man plunged into the water, less than a moment later, Zhou Cang's sturdy figure emerged from the water, holding Lu Bu's Fang Tian painting halberd in one hand, pulling Lu Bu's hair bun with the other hand to carry it out of the water for a while, and then pressing it into the water, looking up to the sky and laughing: "Caught it, hahaha, Lao Tzu caught Lu Bu." ”

Poor Lu Bu was brave and unparalleled on land, but after falling into the water and filling his stomach with river water, he could only let Zhou Cang settle down, and he had no power to resist. It wasn't until Lu Bu held his breath that Zhou Cang dragged him to the raft like a dead dog, and a group of water thieves rushed up and tied Lu Bu up with all hands and feet.

"Huh~~"

Seeing that he captured Lu Bu, the commander of the Bingzhou Army who was undefeated even Xu Chu, Zhou Cang was inevitably proud in his heart, and he didn't want to be happy and sad, so he heard the sound of breaking the air, and then a strong wind swept his face, relying on the instinct of a military general and the life and death experience of countless escapes from death, Zhou Cang hid to the side when he couldn't do anything.

"呲~"

In the crisp sound of the sharp weapon cutting open the body, Zhou Cang felt that the entire left half of his body suddenly numb, Huo Ran looked down and saw that a wolf's tooth arrow with a thumb thickness had shot through his left shoulder, and the powerful force came from the arrow, bringing Zhou Cang's strong body up and flying up, and fell on the raft again.

"General!"

"General?"

"Save the General."

The water thieves were taken aback, and when they stepped forward to save Zhou Cang, a piercing sound sounded in the darkness again, and four ordinary wolf tooth arrows hit at the same time, ruthlessly shooting through the bodies of five water thieves, one of which was shot through the throats of two water thieves in a row, killing two people with one arrow.

"Leave me alone~~" Zhou Cang struggled to sit up and yelled, "It's almost Lu Bu, hurry!" ”

A water thief raised his knife to slash, and a heavy iron spear had already shot through the air, piercing his chest coldly, and taking his whole body away, nailed far away to the bottom of the inverted water, which had not yet sunk, and the water thief who had not yet swallowed his breath whimpered, and his hands fell weakly, and the steel knife in his hand slipped into the water with a pop.

"Ahem~~"

Lu Bu coughed violently twice, and finally woke up, as soon as he opened his eyes (when he was ravaged by Zhou Cang just now, the gauze wrapped around his head had already dispersed), and in the haze, he saw a cold steel knife cutting down on his neck, Lu Bu's heart was broken, and when he was eager to dodge, he found that his body was as heavy as a mountain, and it was difficult to move.

"Boom!"

When Lu Bu thought that he was going to die, an iron spear shot out of the air, which was able to stand up to the cut down steel knife, and in the sparks that were splashing, Zhang Liao's clear shout sounded in Lu Bu's ears: "General, Zhang Liao is also ~~"

……

And in front of the state camp.

Ma Yue and Jia Xu watched the battle from afar under the escort of hundreds of iron horsemen.

"Report~~ General Xu Chu has broken through the outer camp."

"Newspaper~~ Dian Wei has kicked through the main camp."

"Report~~ General Jutu has rushed to the bison ferry and captured a ferry."

"Report ~~ The state army has collapsed, and our army is purging the remnants of the enemy."

"Report ~~ General Zhou Cang blocked the river and intercepted, and he has captured Lu Bu, the chief general of the state army."

"Good!" Ma Yue couldn't help but beat the knot and said, "If this battle is won, Zhou Cang should take the lead!" ”

Jia Xu also smiled and said, "Hu~~ Congratulations to the lord." ”

"Haha."

Before Ma Yue could laugh, another fast horse galloped in front of him, shouting fiercely: "The water thieves were attacked by reinforcements from the other side of the river and suffered casualties, and the enemy's main general, Lu Bu, was also rescued!" ”

Ma Yue's face changed, and he said hurriedly: "What about Zhou Cang?" ”

"General Zhou Cang was wearing several arrows and fell into the water and died."

"What!" Ma Yue was taken aback and lost his voice, "Wearing a few arrows, falling into the water and dying?" ”

"Uh~~"

Jia Xu also sighed in surprise, and almost choked to death without relieving his breath.

……

The next day is dawn.

On the east bank of the river, Lu Bu's big tent.

Lu Bu opened his eyes weakly, looked at Zhang Liao and said with emotion: "Wen Yuan, if you hadn't led people to save each other desperately this time, General Ben would have almost died at the hands of thieves. ”

Zhang Liao clenched his fists and said solemnly: "Serving the general is a matter of internal affairs in the next job." ”

"Hmm." Lu Bu nodded and said solemnly, "Wen Yuan, from now on, you are the captain of the guard's front of this general's tent. ”

"Huh?" Zhang Liao raised his head in amazement, and when he met Lu Bu's admiring gaze, Zhang Liao knelt down on one knee and said loudly, "The last general will take the order." ”

……

On the west bank of the river, Bison Ferry.

Ma Yue stared at his blood-red eyes and asked sharply: "What, I haven't found it yet?" ”

Ju Tu didn't dare to face Ma Yue's fierce eyes, and shook his head gloomily.

"Find, keep looking!" Ma Yue said sharply, "If you want to see people alive, you want to see corpses when you die, if you don't find Zhou Cang's body, this general will never give up, and order, all the soldiers who can swim in the water will go into the water, and those who can't swim will go downstream along the river bank to find until they find Zhou Cang's body, go quickly~~"

"Yes."

The sentence suddenly agreed, turned over and galloped away.

Seeing the sentence suddenly gallop away, Ma Yue Huo Ran turned around and looked at the vast river surface, his dark eyes were deep, Zhou Cang, Lao Tzu knows that you are still alive, you kid is not so easy to die, you must still be alive!

"Cough~~" Jia Xu coughed dryly and said in a low voice, "Lord, since you have now broken through Lu Bu's Bingzhou Iron Cavalry, you should not continue to stay in Biniudu, and now you should quickly return to Meiji, ready to meet the other three armies. ”

Speaking from his heart, Jia Xu was very reluctant to say this to Ma Yue at this time, but as a military advisor, he couldn't help but open his mouth.

"Shut up!" Ma Yue said angrily, "General Ben once swore to the heavens that he would never leave any brother behind!" Until Zhou Cang's whereabouts are found, General Ben will never leave the Bison Ferry for half a step. ”

Ma Yue's reaction was already expected by Jia Xu, but Jia Xu couldn't fulfill his duties as a military advisor, and continued to persuade: "If the army stays in Biniudu and does not return, once Meiji is lost, hundreds of thousands of women and children may not be protected. ”

Jia Xu's voice fell, and the thousands of Han soldiers gathered around Ma Yue were all angry! In the eyes of these simple-minded soldiers, it is simply unforgivable to persuade the brothers who persuade the lord to give up life and death, if it weren't for Ma Yueping's great respect for Jia Xu, these soldiers would have rushed to beat Jia Xu to death.

Ma Yue Huoran turned around, met the angry gaze of thousands of soldiers, and said categorically: "General Ben repeats, even if he dies, he will never abandon any brother, and he will never leave the bison for half a step before he finds Zhou Cang, even if he loses hundreds of thousands of women and children in Meiji City!" ”

The eyes of thousands of soldiers became extremely hot, and Ma Yue's passionate and fierce words easily stirred up the most primitive blood in the hearts of these soldiers!

……

Miki Castle.

"Woo woo~~"

"Knock knock~~"

The distant and long sound of trumpets and fierce war drums resounded in the sky, and on the endless grassland, the two armies were like black oppressive ant colonies, advancing east and west, sweeping towards Meiji City, the hunting and fluttering banners covered the scorching sun, the towering guns and halberds reflected the cold sky, and the black pressed iron armor gathered into a hideous weeping ocean.

The Liangzhou Army and the Jizhou Army finally came to the city!

Guo Tu stood on top of the Meiji City Tower, letting the streamer of the banner slap his thin face, his bloodshot eyes were deep, he should come~~ Zhang Yu is still here, dust to dust, dust to dust, everything is about to end, it is about to end, at this moment, Guo Tu's expression showed unprecedented tranquility.
