Chapter 285: Jing Xiang is dangerous
Hearing the screaming sound of the arrow piercing the sky, Chen Zhi felt a pang in his heart, he didn't expect his whereabouts to be discovered so soon, but at this time, Chen Zhi had no time to think about anything else, so he took out the slender sword given to him by Xu Ji at his waist and knocked it back silently. Unbelievably lay across the cold arrow that had already hit his back.
With the sound of "dang", Chen Zhi's body shook, if someone could see his face during the day, they would definitely find a burst of fiery red on Chen Zhi's handsome face. Obviously, it was a dark loss.
At the same time, I only heard Yuan Min's voice in the dense forest: "What person?" Chen Zhi's reaction was as quick as he could, and immediately led the horse into the dense forest again, because that was the only way out.
Chen Zhi himself is a scheming person, and he is a veteran general in the army who has experienced a hundred battles, and he can judge how to move himself is the most advantageous, the speed of the carved arrow just now is extremely fast, and the force on the arrow is very strong, so it can be seen that the strength of the person who casts the cold arrow behind his back is only above himself, not below himself.
Could it be Huang Zhong again!?
This was the first reaction that flashed through Chen Zhi's mind.
In this world, apart from Lu Bu, Chen Zhi couldn't think of anyone else who could surpass him in terms of strength and speed of bows and arrows, and Lu Bu obviously couldn't appear here.
So the most likely person is Huang Zhong.
And Yuan Min's shout made Chen Zhi even more convinced of this, because the person who sneaked up on him was obviously not Yuan Min's expectation, so when he blocked the cold arrow, Yuan Min asked in amazement.
Among the people who are now chasing and killing themselves, they should include Liu Biao, Yuan Shao, and Yuan Shu. Of course, there are also people who may benefit Liu Yan in the state, and you must know that Lu Dao is because of Zhang Ren's matter. The contradiction between Liu Yan and Xu Ji has become irreconcilable, so in this case. It is also normal for Liu Yan to send people to hunt down and kill his fake Xu Ji.
So the current situation should be that two groups of people who are chasing and killing themselves from different camps have met together.
If it was an ordinary person, Chen Zhi would have rushed out of Lu regardless of it, but as long as he thought that the other party might be Huang Zhong who had regrouped, Chen Zhi didn't want to rush out of Lu on a rampage. In this environment, the dark arrow is the most fatal thing. Of course, this is not to say that Chen Zhi is afraid of Huang Zhong, and Chen Zhi is naturally overjoyed to meet an opponent like Huang Zhong in his heart, but Chen's current task is to "escape". So it's definitely not normal to stay and fight. That's definitely not the proper behavior of a person who is in a hurry to return to Yanzhou.
What's more, if you die in battle, then everything will be exposed. Huang Zhong, plus Yuan Min, who had personally tried his skills, was about the same as Shi A, and the long knife formation of the Yuan family, which even Xu Ji admired, if he wanted to leave after being surrounded, it would be even more difficult than ascending to the sky.
That's why Chen Zhi has the current move, because in an instant. Chen Zhi already has a solution to the dilemma in front of him.
At this time, the people on Yuan Min's side had already lit torches and rushed towards Chen Zhi's side.
Chen got into the woods and got on his horse and drew his bow and arrow from behind. Su Rong looked at the shadowy torches in the dense forest, and only listened to "Bang! A powerful arrow. Left Chen Zhi's full strong bow and shot into the dense forest. A miserable hiss rang out.
In the blink of an eye. Chen Zhi shot more than ten arrows in a row with amazing skill. There is no real arrow, and every time an arrow is fired, someone will scream in response to the arrow. After a while, there was no fire on the opposite side, and the original torch bearers had been shot by Chen Zhi, and the remaining people with torches were so frightened that they extinguished the torches one after another, but Chen Zhi did not stop shooting arrows, following the sound in the dense forest, Chen Zhi's strong arrows shot down one after another, and each arrow must hit one person.
At the same time, Chen Zhi also shot a bow from time to time to the place where he had just released cold arrows outside the dense forest, and the target was of course those with torches, but it seemed that there were not a few enemies outside the dense forest, after Chen Zhi's bow and arrow were shot, the enemies outside the dense forest began to shoot back, but in this environment, there was no Chen Zhi's ability to listen to the sound and distinguish the position, where could he shoot?
At this time, I saw darkness everywhere in the dense forest, but now the three parties are all experts in marching and fighting, and such an environment is naturally difficult for these people. Yuan Min's people were getting closer and closer, and they had become smarter, and in order to prevent Chen Zhi's bow and arrows, they actually put tree branches on the ground to make a sound, and they were all around, trying to confuse Chen Zhi's ears. But that's what Chen wants.
Chen Zhi continued to allocate the distance between the two and himself, and at this moment, a carved arrow shot over, judging from the strength, accuracy, and speed, this carved arrow was the first person who thought that he was a cold arrow. Chen Zhi was overjoyed in his heart, and knew that he had finally waited for the moment to escape, and at this time, the eagle arrow did not enter the forest, and he heard Chen Zhi pretend to scream: "Ah! This scream was a loud sound, clearly different from the sound made by the other people who had been killed by Chen Zhi's bow and arrow when they were dying.
After Chen Zhi called, he immediately stopped shooting with his bow and arrows, but quickly broke a branch, tied it to the horse's tail, and struck the horse's buttocks, and the war horse turned around.
In the short time that Yuan Min's hands lit the torches just now, Chen Zhi's sharp eyes had already observed the surrounding environment, so he would find his way in this darkness. In the blink of an eye, he hid behind a huge tree.
At this moment, the outer hooves of the jungle sounded. At the same time, the torches were lit.
Chen Zhi stretched out his head to peek, and sure enough, outside the dense forest, a general who was over forty years old and held a longbow in his hand came to the edge of the dense forest with more than forty people, and it was Huang Zhong who came lightly.
At this moment, Yuan Min's manpower had also come to the front, only to see Huang Zhong stunned for a moment when he saw these murderous people with long knives, although he had already heard that there were other mysteries in this dense forest, but he didn't expect so many people to come out of it, he couldn't help but be stunned, and said loudly: "Who are you?" ”
Yuan Min's people only saw the longbow in Huang Zhong's hand, and they couldn't help but feel angry, because many of his companions died under the bow and arrow just now, and now looking at the big man opposite holding the bow and arrow in his hand, he naturally thought that the big man in front of him did it? What's more, how can your identity be revealed? Connection. All the men of Yuan Min, who were armed with long knives, surrounded this man and did not say a word. Forming a sword formation that even Xu Ji was shocked, he attacked the man and his men.
Just for an instant. Huang Zhong's men were cut down by Yuan Min's efficient knife array, and more than twenty people were killed.
Where did Huang Zhong think that the group of black-clothed people in front of him would draw their knives without saying a word? Anger flashed in the tiger's eyes, he snorted coldly, and with a clamp between his legs, the war horse came to the side of the two long knife men who were slashing and killing the big man's men like lightning.
Of course, the two long knife men knew the principle of preemptive strike, and they hated even more that in their eyes, the big man who had killed many of their companions in the sand immediately bullied him, and together with the three companions beside him, the sword light slashed out like lightning.
"The light of rice grains, but also dare to compete for the bright moon? Hum. Are you also worthy of knives? I only heard Huang Zhong say coldly, and between words, the long knife in his hand swam away, and it unexpectedly swayed an incredible brilliance under the faint moonlight, which was eye-catching.
In this piece of light, the screams of the five long knife hands came and went, and where the blood splattered, these five people all staggered back without covering their right wrist with their left hands, and the long knives in their hands that could kill people in the breath had already fallen to the ground.
Chen Zhihu, who was hiding behind a tree and peeking at what was happening in front of him, flashed in his eyes. At this moment, Chen Zhi can be sure that what Huang Zhong shows at this moment is his true strength, and the last time he went to contain himself with others, he definitely didn't go all out......
Chen Zhi has a good eye. Naturally, you can see clearly what happened just now.
Huang Zhong's long knife had an incredible sense of sophistication, and it felt like a forest that grew naturally in nature.
Just looking at Huang Zhong's knife technique, it is simply bland. The simplest tricks are used, and it can be said that everyone who uses a long knife knows how to use it. It is as unobtrusive as the growth of obscure trees and flowers. But once you recognize its growth, you will find that you simply cannot resist its existence. You will be even more horrified to find yourself lost in the labyrinthine forest.
If it is said that Lu Bu's Fang Tian painting halberd is an unpredictable "fire", and Chen Dao's marksmanship is an indestructible "water", then Huang Zhong is definitely a bland on the surface, but in fact it is a confusing "wood".
In the stab just now, the wrists of the five long knife men who attacked Huang Zhong from different directions and angles were actually injured in the same position, and Huang Zhong did this without turning around. What shocked Chen Zhi even more was that after Huang Zhong's long knife cut the wrists of the five long knife hands, it actually turned hundreds of steels into finger wrapping softness, like a spring silkworm spinning silk around the little fingers of the palms of the five long knife hands that had been released in an instant because they had discarded the long knives.
The fingers of the small hands of the five long knife hands were broken on the spot, and under the spray of blood, they flew out. Without the little finger, the palm of the hand is completely unable to exert strength, and this hand is considered useless, and this result is only more sad than killing them.
In Chen Zhi's eyes, this knife completely exposed Huang Zhong's characteristics.
The moment you cut your wrist is like a sharp cactus thorn, but the moment you cut off the fingers of your little hand is like a green vine around a tree. Fast, slow, rigid and soft, and completely unpredictable.
What a Huang Zhong! What a long knife!
It was not only Chen Zhi who had good eyesight, Yuan Min, who had been following behind the long knife hand under him, couldn't help but let out a "huh" when he saw Huang Zhong's amazing knife technique, and from back to front, the spear in his hand turned into a long rainbow and went towards Huang Zhong's face.
Huang Zhong's face turned pale, and he said coldly: "This is still a little bit like this!" ”
Swords and spears clashed together. Huang Zhong only shook his horse for a moment, but Yuan Min took a step back, and he immediately saw how strong he was!
"Good skills, you can block the old man's full force, if you can block the old man's thirty moves, then let you live!"
How could Yuan Min be in the mood to deal with him? Just now, he was shocked and bloody, and he was still speechless, although he knew that the person opposite him was not Xu Ji, but he had to do it, because the other party would definitely investigate his identity, how could Yuan Shao's secret be exposed?
originally thought that he could kill the leader of the other party without taking action himself, kill the enemy, and then destroy the corpse, this matter can naturally be over.
Who would have thought that the big man in front of him would be surprisingly powerful. Now it is difficult for me to ride a tiger at all, and I can only fight to the death.
At this time, Chen Dao, who was full of shock, took advantage of the chaos and quietly left the forest. Abandoned the nearest route through Jiangxia and quietly headed for Jiujiang County.
However, Chen Dao's heart did not have the slightest joy. Because Huang Zhong has reappeared. Coupled with this tracking master Yuan Min, it means that his future days will be as hard as cat and mouse.
But. Huang Zhong's skills remained deeply in Chen Zhi's mind.
And the state, outside the city of Anze.
Xu Ji, who was in the dust, took Le Yi and led four thousand shadows to the outside of Yan Rou's military camp.
Yan Rou had already gotten the news, and when Xu Ji arrived, he had already waited outside the camp with Xu Huang, who was already satisfied with his ambition at this time.
Everyone was very happy to see each other, and after a short greeting, Xu Ji and Yan Rou walked side by side.
Looking at the orderly military camp, Xu Ji praised it. smiled at Yan Rou and said, "Yan Rou, you really didn't disappoint me, the flamboyant bandit army didn't take long to come into your hands, and it was like a change of appearance, it was really a talent from leading the army." ”
Yan Rou said modestly: "Where do subordinates have such great skills, it is because of the relationship between General Xu Huang, and General Xu Huang is the real talent." It took only a few days to boost the morale of the army. ”
Xu Ji has long thought of this, how could the "five good generals" in history be a wasted person? However, this Yan Rou's unrelenting and pragmatic attitude made Xu Ji appreciate it even more. smiled at the moment: "Yan Rou, you have the wisdom to know people, and the ability to use people is even better, since you are so optimistic about Gongming, I will assign General Xu Huang to you." What do you think of him helping you with the affairs of the state? ”
Yan Rou was overjoyed when she heard this, and bowed to Xu Ji: "If you can get Xu Gongming's help, then the state can be fixed." The lord's map of Youzhou is also at your fingertips. ”
Xu Huang was also grateful when he heard this.
Xu Huang has been in the Chang'an Army for many years. Of course, he knew that the most important thing in a place like the army was qualifications, otherwise how could he be qualified to lead troops to fight?
And in Yanzhou, there are many excellent generals. And it's all different.
Although Chen Zhi has not seen him for the time being, he is already a new generation of war gods. The reputation is out, and the soldiers are all convinced. It is even more rare for him to give advice and not let ordinary strategists, and acting when he sees the opportunity is his strength; Gao Shun is Xu Ji's die-hard loyalist, and he is the first leading general in Yanzhou, and the sinking camp under his command has the reputation of "undefeated in a hundred battles, unbroken without battle"; and others, such as Zhang He Gaolan, are also famous generals; Needless to say, Guo Jia is the first military division of Yanzhou, Xu Ji's best friend, and his prestige in the army is second only to Xu Ji; Although Bocai is not famous for his art of war or martial arts, he is a symbol of Yanzhou's recruitment of the Yellow Turban Army; As for Zhang Xiu and Jia Xu, once they took Hanzhong Xiliang and Yizhou, they would immediately be respected figures in the Yanzhou army.
On the other hand, Xu Huang is really a little lacking in confidence, he has made no achievements since he defected to Xu Ji, although he has helped Yan Rou sweep Yu Fuluo these days, but in the end, he is a newcomer, and he is a little worried about his future.
Who knew that Lu Dao was now entrusted with a heavy task by Xu Ji, how could he not make Xu Huang grateful? Because this is equivalent to Xu Ji acknowledging his status in the Yanzhou army, making himself and those above side by side.
Xu Huang was grateful in his heart, and he whimpered a little: "Lord......"
Xu Ji waved his hand and smiled at Xu Huang: "Gongming, this is what you deserve, but there is a right and a responsibility, I Yanzhou has always been like this, there is no place to raise idlers, if you are indeed a talent, you deserve to sit in this position, I hope you can understand." ”
Xu Huang nodded vigorously and said in a deep voice: "Xu Huang knows, and he will not disappoint the lord." ”
Xu Ji nodded, then turned his head to Yan Rou and smiled, "I have one more person to send to you." ”
Yan Rou was stunned, but saw Xu Ji turn his head and shout, "Zhang Hu! ”
Zhang Hu came out in response, and Xu Ji smiled at Yan Rou: "This person is an outstanding talent in my Yanzhou shadow, and my Yanzhou is powerless to be external for a period of time, so Zhang Hu is here and treats him as a foreign envoy." ”
Yan Rou nodded and said, "What the lord said is extremely true! Turning his head, he saw that Zhang Hu was smart and clever, obviously a person with sharp words, and saw that he had a thin waist and long legs, broad shoulders, and quick movements, and was obviously a master. The heart is even more joyful.
Xu Ji said solemnly to Zhang Hu: "Zhang Hu, I will give you a thousand shadows, and you will do things under General Yan Rou, you naturally know how to do it." ”
Zhang Hu said in a deep voice: "Zhang Hu understands. ”
While speaking, everyone had already come to the big tent of the Chinese army, and they dismounted one after another, Xu Ji led everyone into the camp and sat down, looked at Yan Rou and said in a deep voice: "How is Yu Fuluo now?" ”
Everyone smiled knowingly, Xu Ji didn't ask how An Zecheng was, only asked Yu Fuluo, obviously not wanting to kill Fuluo in this situation.
Le Yi said angrily on the side: "If it weren't for the lord to stop him, I would have split him in half with one sword." ”
Yan Rou said with a smile: "Now this Yu Fuluo is almost dead, he was stabbed twice by General Le Yi and General Xu Huang, and he vomited blood twice, and because his younger brother was captured alive, he was trapped in this Anze City, he was so angry that he was about to die, and now he is lying on the bed, if the lord does not let him go, he may have to wait for death." ”
Xu Ji nodded and snorted coldly: "To be honest, I really want to kill this Yu Fuluo, but I don't want to unify the north for a day, and I don't dare to start a war with the outside world lightly for a day, so I can only endure for a while." ”
After a pause, Xu Ji smiled again and said with a smile: "It seems that this time Hu Chuquan can come in handy." (To be continued......)
