According to the original plan, Yang Ling led two thousand elite cavalry to take the lead in attacking Cao Ying at night to attract the attention of the other party.

Zhang Jing's 15,000 iron cavalry in the camp outside the city was divided into two routes, one was led by Zhang Jing himself, and Wang Xu and them went out of the city, and the other was led by Liu Du's son, General Liu Xian, to open up the northwest direction, pull out the stronghold of the Cao army, and block the possible counterattack of the Cao army, until Wang Xu and others successfully broke through.

In addition, after the Southern Barbarian armor soldiers in Duyang withdrew to Ruyin, Zhou Zhi led the remaining cavalry to deal with the possible pursuers of Cao's army, while Zhang Jing met Yang Ling, and then Yang Ling and Zhang Jing followed to break through to the northwest, and Zhou Zhi finally withdrew from the Duyang battlefield.

After this group of soldiers and horses withdrew to the northwest, they then passed through the Hengshan area, moved to the enemy's rear, followed the style of the Saiwai Hu people, and forced the Cao army to divide and retreat, thus creating opportunities for Zhang Liao in the north and Guo Jia in Nanyang.

But now that Wang Xu is suddenly out of control, of course Zhou Zhi doesn't dare to do this anymore, the only thing he wants to do now is to take Wang Xu to break through and return to Xiangyang, as for the rest, after Wang Xu is safe, let Guo Jia and them find a way. In fact, he was also a little uneasy by Wang Xu, and he couldn't tell what was going on!

At this time, Yang Ling had already set off, Zhang Jing also led the army to the outside of Duyang City, and the Nanban armor soldiers were all withdrawn under the leadership of Meng Shu and Putu, so after Zhou Zhi carried the fainting Wang Xu down from the city tower, he sent someone to inform Zhang Jing as soon as possible, so that he must rush back to Duyang alone.

Zhang Jing thought that the plan had changed, and hurriedly entered the city with dozens of guards. When I met Zhou Zhishi. I haven't had time to ask yet. Zhou Zhi had already told him everything before and after.

"How is this possible! How can a boss go crazy for no reason? Zhang Jing asked.

"How do I know!" Zhou Zhi rarely looked anxious and walked around. "The boss didn't know what evil he had fallen for today, and he suddenly went crazy!"

"So what now?"

"Of course, it's to break through and return to Xiangyang? Will it still be possible to go as planned? If something happens to the boss, the state of Chu will be in danger, no matter what the reason is, it will only be solved by returning to Xiangyang. Zhou Zhi said.

"Then how do you get back to Xiangyang? If so many soldiers are evacuated, can the Cao army not pursue and not encircle? Wancheng and Duyang, the two main forces of the Cao army, will wrap us into dumplings! Zhang Jing said sharply.

"I understand. So the soldiers will definitely not be able to leave, and the boss must be evacuated alone! ”

"But this is equivalent to completely giving up the Nanyang battlefield!"

Zhang Jing roared out loudly, his pupils dilated, and his expression was excited, he was a person with a chivalrous style, and his personality had always been upright, and it was difficult to accept this statement.

"Zhou Zhi, you sue me, if you do this, then what will these soldiers do? What should they do with Ruyin's Wenpin and Wu Lan? What about Meng Huo and Putu's Nanban armor guards? All three major generals will be evacuated. In order to save his life, tens of thousands of people were abandoned, and heroes and good generals were abandoned. Boss, you, and I will all be ruined, and they will be pointed out by thousands of people, how can the Chu State still gain a foothold? ”

Hearing this, Zhou Zhi paused, looked at Zhang Jing, and smiled a little bitterly.

"So, you go, I must stay!"

When Zhang Jing, who was furious, heard this, his breath suddenly stagnated, and he didn't ease up for a long time.

The two looked at each other frankly for a long time, and Zhang Jingcai seemed to have made up some kind of determination, slowly breaking the silence, and his voice was slightly hoarse.

"I'll stay, you go!"

Zhou Zhi seemed to have expected him to say this, and immediately shook his head, and joked heartily: "Okay, don't fight!" I already have a son, but your two stupid daughters-in-law haven't passed on to you yet, and they won't be blind when they die! On weekdays, you and I love to fight, so what are you fighting for? ”

"You don't play sloppy in front of me, the two of them were killed by Zhang Lie's dog thief in their early years, and they have lost their fertility, and I may not have children in this life! You have old parents, a wife and children, and if you die, what will happen to your family? Or I'll stay. Zhang Jing seemed to have made up his mind and said persistently.

Zhou Zhi waved his hand: "Then you are not the same, your two idiot daughters-in-law already have a shadow in their hearts, if you die again, they will be too bitter in this life." As for the children, you can still take a concubine! Go back, my life is also complete, you are not as good as me! ”

"I swore that I would atone for them in this life and never take a concubine." Zhang Jing shook his head and said.

"That's terrible, you go back and continue to atone for your sins!"

"What about Huang Wudie? With his strong temperament, if he commits suicide and accompanies you, Huang Zhong and Huang Xu still hate me to death? ”

Zhang Jing's words finally hit Zhou Zhi's weakness and silenced him, Huang Wudie is Huang Zhong's daughter, Huang Xu's sister, and Zhou Zhi's wife.

At this time, the air seemed to be gradually condensing, and it could be seen that although Zhou Zhi's indifferent face had no expression, there was indescribable pain in his eyes, in fact, he didn't want to die.

But after a long time, after repeated ideological struggles, Zhou Zhi still opened his mouth slightly hoarsely and refused: "Forget it, this is fate, if I die, you remember to keep it secret, just say that I was sent to Bingzhou, and tell them in a few years!" ”

"Impossible! I'll stay, you go! Zhang Jing said stubbornly.

This time, Zhou Zhi seemed to have made a lot of determination, and his expression became more and more calm.

"Zhang Jing, there is one thing that I haven't said to the boss, but the truth is that I don't live long, even if I'm afraid of death, I don't want to die, I also want to go home, but at the moment, I can only stay, this is the best choice."

"What do you mean by that?" Zhang Jingwei was a little stunned.

"Do you still remember when I led the army to reinforce Xu Huang, and when I fought with Jiangdong in Yuzhang, I was seriously wounded!" Zhou Zhi said lightly.

"Of course remember, your life is big, and it's not easy to pick up a life!"

"But you don't know, I have been seriously injured and dying several times in my life, and the inner government has been severely damaged, Hua Tuo and Zhang Zhongjing have both said that I will not live to be forty years old, no matter how tenacious my vitality is, no matter how strong my internal breath is, I estimate that Dingtian is more than forty years old, and now I am over thirty-five years old, do you think it is still necessary for you to fight with me?"

With Zhou Zhi's words, Zhang Jing was a little incredulous, his face was full of consternation, and he stared at Zhou Zhi for a long time, but said with a smile: "You kid don't bluff me, you are like that, Lord Yan is annoyed to look at it, how can he want to take you away so early?" ”

"Do you think I'm joking?"

Zhou Zhi's expression was very calm, unprecedentedly calm.

"Really?" Zhang Jing still couldn't believe it, but his voice trembled slightly, the feelings between them were too deep, although they loved to make trouble and fight on weekdays, but it was not that they didn't get along, but it was their unique emotional expression, if Zhou Zhi really died, then Zhang Jing, a man who values love and righteousness, must be one of the saddest people who cry the most.

"Really!" Zhou Zhi nodded slightly in Zhang Jing's disbelieving gaze, breaking all his illusions.

In an instant, Zhang Jing's eyes were moist, he couldn't control himself, he only felt as if his eyes had suddenly become someone else's, staring at Zhou Zhi's cheeks for a long time, and suddenly scolded excitedly: "You are fucking useless, why don't you rest at home, what are you doing when you run out and show your face?" Do you have a sick head? You damn mallet! ”

"Huh! yes, I'm a mallet, and it's not to take more credit! Zhou Zhi smiled and comforted Zhang Jing in his unique way.

"You! What does the boss think, so that you can lead the army? ”

"Don't blame the boss!" Zhou Zhi shook his head with a smile, and said with a relieved smile: "It's what I requested, just because I didn't have a long time to live, so I have to use my limited time to do something I want to do." In this half of my life, I have followed the boss from birth to death, fighting the world with my brothers, I have seen too much, and I have experienced too much, if it is in the last life, I will definitely indulge in pleasure in the last days of my life! But in this life, I want to die on the battlefield, I grew up on the battlefield, and I also want to die on the battlefield, the boss respects me, so I agree. ”

"You ......"

Zhang Jing wanted to say something, but found that he couldn't say anything, from Zhou Zhi's point of view, he wanted to give full play to his popularity, what's wrong?

In the end, there was only a helpless sigh!

"Let's go!" Zhou Zhi smiled faintly, a very strange smile, maybe he wanted to open it, maybe he was strong, or maybe it was to comfort the close friend in front of him who was not a brother, but a brother. "You take the boss and go back to Xiangyang! We still have a lot to do, you have more time than I do, and you can do more! I hope you can fulfill our dreams! ”

The breeze blew, lifting the battle robes behind the two of them, and under this starry sky, at the head of this slightly dilapidated Blocked Yang City, two strong bodies stood looking at each other, and they were speechless for a long time!

Zhang Jing didn't know what else he could say, maybe he didn't have to say anything, and being speechless was the best respect at the moment.

"Good! I promise you! But I hope you come back alive! Things always have to be done, and Zhang Jing finally broke the silence.

"Nonsense, who wants to die if they have nothing to do, I will definitely live if I can live!" Zhou Zhi said with a smile.

"Good!"

The two didn't have too much commitment, nor did they give too much promise, because for the love between the two, there was no need to say more!

Zhang Jing left quickly, taking the unconscious Wang Xu and dozens of personal guard masters off their battle armor, changing into ordinary clothes, and quietly leaving with only weapons.

Seeing them leave the city, Zhou Zhicai, who had been standing for a long time, resolutely turned around and stepped onto the war horse.

"All the soldiers are leaving!"

This night when the galaxy was shining was destined to be unpeaceful, Zhou Zhi had just led his troops out of the city, and after taking over Zhang Jing's thousands of people outside the city, he was ready to rescue Yang Ling and several other troops, and then retreated to Ruyin together.
