Chapter 354: The End of the Hero

"I'm Gao Yingxiang, who is Chen Xie?" Gao Yingxiang, who went out alone, shouted loudly.

When Chen Xie moved forward, Han Shan, who was beside him, grabbed the reins and shook his head vigorously: "Master, no!" ”

Chen Xie smiled at him and said, "It's okay, I'll go and convince him to die." Han Shan hesitated slightly and let go of the reins.

Gao Yingxiang kept going down, Chen Xie went up, less than ten steps away, and the two had a tacit understanding of neatness.

"I'm Chen Xie!" The face of the young man on horseback made Gao Yingxiang stunned for a while. The distance is only ten steps, as long as you accelerate, you can rush up, but I don't know why, Gao Yingxiang gave up this idea. The confidence and strong momentum on this young man's face convinced him of the loss.

Glancing up at the sun, Gao Yingxiang hoped that it would get dark early, so that he still had a chance. It's a pity that there is still an hour before it gets dark, and Gao Yingxiang doesn't think that he and his three thousand subordinates can hold out for an hour. Just like at the beginning before, he didn't expect that in just one hour, hundreds of thousands of people would be defeated.

"Thank you!" Gao Yingxiang bowed his hand, this hero, who made his fortune from the northwest and galloped on the battlefield for many years, Chen Xie didn't know what to thank at this moment. Probably only he knows, Chen Xie has a thought in his heart, he can't let this product have any pride. It's to let him lose everything.

Slowly returning to the hill bag, Gao Yingxiang looked at Chen Xie, who also returned to the formation. He raised the knife in his hand, slammed it forward, and shouted: "Kill!" "Three thousand cavalry rushed to the Guanning army. He didn't even glance at the Dengzhou camp.

Zu Dashou's face showed an angry grin, Nima actually used Lao Tzu as a soft persimmon and wanted to kill me from me.

"Kill!" Zu Dashou raised the three-eyed gun in his hand without hesitation, and greeted Gao Yingxiang who rushed down the hillside.

"Kill!" Upon discovering that the thieves were moving, the Dengzhou battalion immediately took action and surrounded them from all sides to prevent them from escaping.

Bang bang bang, the three-eyed gun is not a vegetarian, after a raindrop of lead bullets, the Guanning cavalry with the three-eyed gun is convenient for Gao Yingxiang's old battalion soldiers to hit head-on fiercely. The fast-moving Dengzhou cavalry battalion. At the critical point of the fierce fighting between the two armies. pounced fiercely from behind, with a short gun in one hand and a snowy saber in the other, the wolf bit it hard as if it smelled blood.

Roads all around. They were all taken over by the foot soldiers of the Dengzhou battalion. This is a duel between cavalry. It took about an hour. Gao Yingxiang's momentum of rushing forward was completely contained. In the end, there were only a hundred soldiers who could fight in Horseback Mountain, and they were tightly huddled together. Facing the Dengzhou cavalry and Guanning cavalry surrounded on all sides.

Gao Yingxiang was covered in blood, with two crossbow arrows pierced on his back, and a short shot on his leg, the blood was still bubbling and falling to the ground drop by drop. The rest of the people were also covered in wounds, and they were sleepy.

The besieged cavalry suddenly came to a road, Chen Xie appeared ten steps away, looked at Gao Yingxiang and shouted: "You surrender, I will leave a whole corpse for your brothers, as for you, I can't help." ”

Gao Yingxiang came out slowly, looked at Chen Xie's young face and said, "Let my brothers jump alive, I surrender." ”

Chen Xie hesitated a little and nodded. Gao Yingxiang slowly dismounted, and summoned Liu Zhe, the head of the Huanglong, to say, "Tie me up and take the brothers away." Liu Zhe's eyes cracked, and the corners of his eyes were bleeding: "I'm not leaving, I'll die with the leader." ”

Gao Yingxiang looked at him and sighed: "It's okay." Turning around, Liu Zhe tied him up, and after a serious five-flower tie, he slowly came to the front of the Dengzhou camp. Gao Yingxiang said: "I hope you keep your promise. ”

Chen Xie didn't say a word, and raised his hand: "Get out of the way and let them go." ”

A way out of the way quickly dodged, and none of the old camp thieves gathered together moved. Gao Yingxiang shouted hoarsely: "Let's go, let's go." Don't let Lao Tzu surrender in vain. ”

More than 100 thieves finally moved, slowly trotted their horses, got out of the way of life, ran faster and faster, and finally disappeared from sight.

At the head of Chuzhou City, the rumbling guns kept ringing, and the two chief officers felt that a long time had passed, as if a year had passed. An hour later, when the avalanche of thieves scattered all over the mountains seemed to be fleeing, they realized that they were really saved.

Li Zicheng was also defeated, and he didn't know how many of the more than 10,000 cavalry escaped. I remember the wind whistling in my ears, rushing all the way, trampling all the way, running and fleeing. I don't know how long he fled, and when he couldn't hear the shouting behind him, he reined in the galloping war horse and glanced back in the direction of Chuzhou City. Between the mountains and fields, there is no boundary, and they are all fleeing homeless people. Looking around him again, there were less than a thousand or so people still following him.

Gao Yingxiang, who did not resist at all, was still tied strongly. Liu Zhe was also very honestly tied up, followed Gao Yingxiang, and was escorted to the city of Chuzhou.

When Lu Xiangsheng and his troops arrived at Wuli Bridge, it was already dusk. The battlefield under the sunset was blood-red, the thick smell of blood was in the nose, and in front of the fierce battle, there were countless stumps and broken arms, and the flesh and blood of the human body that was beaten into rotten flesh were blurred. You can imagine how tragic it used to be. The sound of shouting and killing could no longer be heard in the distance, and the Dengzhou soldiers were cleaning the battlefield unhurriedly.

When the soldiers saw Lu Xiangsheng and the others coming, they took a look at it and continued to do whatever they wanted. Those who remained were artillerymen and sappers, and the artillery and carriages were not fast marching, so they had to clean up the battlefield part-time. The heads are piled up on the side of the road, like a hill one by one, and no one counts how many beheadings they have, and they don't bother to count. This is what was promised to be left to Guan Ningjun. The Dengzhou battalion doesn't look down on this, and it doesn't need this.

Lu Xiangsheng didn't care about the disrespect of the soldiers, and continued to go down to the city with excitement, and when he passed by the Wuli Bridge, the corpses piled up in Chushui and filled the river. Everyone was in a backward posture at a time, and the corpses that could not be seen at a glance had not yet had time to deal with them urgently. There is no doubt that this is a great victory. A real victory.

Finally saw Chen Xie, Lu Xiangsheng rode his horse and trotted forward, Chen Xie turned over and dismounted, and raised his hand to salute: "Report to the superintendent, the thieves are defeated." The corpses are not counted. Gao Yingxiang, the king of the giant coco, was captured alive! ”

What the? Lu Xiangsheng, who was dismounting, slipped directly under his feet and sat on the ground with his buttocks. After the soldiers helped him up, he was still trembling with excitement, and chopped his feet vigorously: "Good, good, good!" Thief, you have today. Yang Tinglin was also excited, and arched his hand in the direction of Jingshi: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, the thief has been captured." All of them were destroyed in the past. It's a shame today. ”

Gao Yingxiang was escorted up by the soldiers, Lu Xiangsheng looked at him and couldn't help but have tears in his eyes, and roared on his back. Gao Yingxiang turned his head disdainfully and took a sip gently. Nor do they speak. The soldiers around Lu Xiangsheng were furious. Punch forward and fight.

"Hmph. Lao Tzu was defeated by the Dengzhou camp, and the heart of the defeat was convinced. You don't deserve to capture me! The words just fell. Chen Xie took a piece of cloth, plugged his mouth, and said lightly: "For the benefit of your tongue and the suffering of flesh and skin, it is better to plug your mouth." ”

Lu Xiangsheng stopped his excitement, stepped forward and asked with a smile: "What, do you sympathize with him?" ”

Chen Xie shook his head, raised his hand and pointed to the mountains in front of him, and said lightly: "Not long ago, hundreds of thousands of hungry people were not far away. I sympathize with them. Lu Xiangsheng frowned and said: "Natural disasters in the northwest have been going on for many years, and the imperial court is unable to provide relief, which does not mean that they should rebel." ”

Chen Xie was defeated by this strange theory, looked at Lu Xiangsheng with a smile, and said for a long time: "These words came out of the mouth of the superintendent, and they unexpectedly made me feel righteous and strict. Hehe, can the superintendent know that during the Hongwu period of the Ming Dynasty, how much was the tax of the imperial court? ”

Lu Xiangsheng was stunned by the question and shook his head, Chen Xie smiled and shook his head. didn't say this again, but said lightly: "Gao Yingxiang has been handed over to the superintendent, I still have to take the Dengzhou camp to save these displaced people, the court is unable to help, and the Dengzhou camp can save one by one." ”

After speaking, Chen Xie turned over and got on the horse, and the crisp "driving" was a sound, which spread far away. The horse's hooves rolled up smoke and dust, and the Dengzhou cavalry battalion and the cavalry of the Guanning Army continued to pursue overnight. The two lightly armed A-shaped battalions also followed suit.

Lu Xiangsheng was dumbfounded, and Yang Tinglin was dumbfounded, not knowing whether Chen Xie was right or wrong. Subconsciously, they all thought that Chen Xie was doing the right thing. The problem is that this is right, and it doesn't seem quite right.

"Hahaha, another group has been arrested, there must be at least five hundred people." Zu Kuan's laughter was very lewd, but he was trying his best to restrain his subordinates, scolding and shouting: "Listen to the damn thing, it's all silver, and no one is allowed to touch the prisoners." ”

The Guanning army asked for silver, and the Dengzhou camp asked for people, and they chased all night, and the displaced people who caught up one after another had to have five or six thousand people. According to the price he agreed with Chen Xie, regardless of young men and women, each person will have five taels of silver, the old man will have one tael of silver, and the child will have three taels of silver. Those who are still nursing also have half a tael of silver.

Guan Ningjun's enthusiasm was unexpectedly high, and it was rare not to grab the first rank. The thieves killed before are all Guan Ningjun's, and you can't be too greedy, don't offend people who you can't afford to offend. After a busy night and a morning, Guan Ningjun escorted the captured people back. At the intersection ahead, he saw the checkpoint of the Dengzhou camp, and Zu Kuan hurriedly went up to take a look and recognized it.

"Chang, look at my results." Zu Kuan triumphantly pointed to the team behind him, Chang Shiren glanced at it, threw him a pack of cigarettes and said: "Okay, you, the people in Liaodong have been captured and killed by Jiannu, and there is not much left." No, it has to be filled by these people, otherwise who will work so hard to get so many people back. ”

When it comes to Liaodong, Zu Kuan also sighed and said: "The construction of slaves in dog days is not shallow, and it is not shallow. ”

Chang Shiren said: "Don't talk about this, hurry up and hand over the people to my subordinates, and then count the silver." ”

At the head of Chuzhou City, the Tianxiong Army and the Dengzhou Battalion, which were resting, camped several miles apart, and neither army entered the city. Only Lu Xiangsheng and Yang Tinglin entered the city. In the procession at the city gate, Li Juesi excitedly shouted: "Jiandou, I knew you were back." ”

After Lu Xiang dismounted, he smiled bitterly at Li Juesi, who was holding the reins for him personally: "I didn't fight this battle. ”

Li Juesi exclaimed: "How is it possible? Also, the appearance of these soldiers is too weird, is it really the Dengzhou battalion? ”

Lu Xiangsheng nodded heavily: "Yes, Dengzhou battalion, defeated hundreds of thousands of rogues in a battle, and captured Gao Yingxiang's Dengzhou battalion." As he spoke, Lu Xiangsheng's expression was solemn, and his eyes looked at the Dengzhou camp that was cleaning the battlefield. (To be continued......)
