Seeing the firewood piled up high on the horse's face, Qin Shubao knew that everyone had misunderstood Taishou Pei Caozhi. Taishou-sama didn't mean to delay the fighter, he really didn't mean to kill everyone.

Outside the city wall, the face of the horse used to make up for the dead end of the defense was already full of dry firewood at this time, and the master of Pei Caozhi, the Taishou of Qi County, was wearing a clean and neat Da Sui official robe, with a seal letter hanging around his neck, and his face was solemn. In November, the wind was a little strong in the city, but the old man was not afraid of the cold at all. Without waiting for Qin Shubao to open his mouth for help, he shouted at the city with his throat in his voice: "Shubao, since you also followed Zhang Juncheng to find a way out on your own, the old man can't blame you." For the sake of the old man who has not been slow to treat him for so many years, I will give General Zhang a word. Let's just say that the old man wishes him a smooth journey. If he wants to take Licheng bloodlessly, come and see! The old lady pointed to the dry wood under her feet with one hand, and raised the torch high with the other. The old man doesn't know any martial arts, but he gave up his life to serve the country! ”

"What the hell is this!" Qin Shubao was so angry that his eyes turned black and he almost fell off the horse. Fortunately, he was calm, and quickly explained loudly before Pei Taishou gave the order to release the arrows: "My lord, don't misunderstand, Zhang Juncheng did not surrender to the enemy. The thief army was blocked by us outside the Crane Pavilion, and I didn't come back to persuade him to surrender, but to ask for reinforcements for my lords! ”

The county soldiers at the head of the city didn't believe that Zhang Xutuo would join the enemy, but the three most prestigious generals all followed Zhang Xutuo to fight, and the rest of the people had no backbone, so they were told by Pei Caozhi that they didn't dare to go out of the city to accompany them. Hearing Qin Shubao's explanation at this moment, everyone immediately clamored and cheered, preparing to rush down the road to open the city gate. Pei Caozhi refused to believe Qin Shubao's words, turned his head, shouted orders repeatedly, and relied on the strength of his own soldiers to forcibly restrain the county soldiers. Then, Lord Taishou, who was determined to die, turned his gaze to the city and stretched out his halberd to point: "General Qin, the old man thought you were a gentleman, but I didn't expect you to learn to speak your tongue." With four people blocking tens of thousands of thieves, are you a fool to be an old man? ”

The Crane Pavilion is less than five miles away from Licheng, and you can clearly see the figure in the distance when you stand on the city wall. Looking from the direction of Licheng, Zhang Xutuo has been sitting under the pavilion to watch the scenery since he arrived at the Crane Pavilion. From the beginning to the end, the thief army came up with a person, and greeted Zhang Xutuo, Qin Shubao, and Luo Shixin a few times, and was polite. Then Luo Shixin and the others ran down the mountain one by one, and returned one by one. That situation is clearly that the two sides are talking about conditions, where it seems to be desperate!

There was a faint shout of killing in the wind, Pei Caozhi could turn a deaf ear to it, but Qin Shubao was anxious. General Zhang's suspicious tactics didn't last long, and a moment later, the thieves would definitely step on General Zhang's blood and kill under the city wall. At that time, I am afraid that the old fellows in the city will not have any way to retreat from the enemy except self-immolation.

Forcibly suppressing the urge to shoot Pei Caozhi from the city with an arrow, Qin Shubao puffed up his dantian qi and retorted loudly: "Brothers, Lord Zhang has been going around on a campaign in the past few years, and how many bandits and rogues have been killed. How could he be a renegade? Which bandit was bold enough to accept the surrender of Lord Zhang. Turning around and looking anxiously into the distance, Qin Shubao aimed at Pei Caozhi again: "Lord Pei doesn't believe in Qin, doesn't believe in Lord Zhang and Luo Shixin, doesn't he still believe in Dugu Lin's loyalty, he is the younger brother of General Dugu Xin of Shangzhu State, and the cousin of the current emperor." His Majesty's confidants Li Xu and Li Zhongjian are also here, and they are fighting the thieves side by side with Lord Zhang. He is the hero who rescued the 300,000 army from Liaodong, can't the adults even believe him? ”

The last two sentences are extremely sharp, even if Pei Caozhi is bent on martyrdom with his body, he has to consider the consequences of hesitation. In case what Qin Shubao said is true, I am afraid that his current actions will not leave a name for himself as he imagined. The Dugu family will find the Pei family to settle this account, and His Majesty the Emperor will not be willing to rest. In case there are a few more ill-intentioned generals in the army who come up with an excuse to avenge Li Zhongjian......

Pei Caozhi hesitated, and the torch in his hand "suddenly" emitted black smoke. Personal life and death are small, and family interests are the greatest. After thinking about it repeatedly, he finally decided to give up the opportunity to be martyred, pointed at the city gate with a torch, and ordered in a low voice: "Open the city, the two battalions of Huyi and Yingyang soldiers will go out to rescue Lord Zhang with Governor Qin." The rest of the people, continue to stand by at the head of the city! ”

"Yes!" The soldiers agreed, immediately opened the gates, and rushed out. Qin Shubao didn't care about vomiting with Lord Taishou anymore, and shouted, "Brothers, come with me!" "Lead everyone to pounce on the crane pavilion. Not counting the delay on the road, it took half a pillar of incense just to wait for Pei Caozhi to make a decision under the city wall. He didn't know if the not-so-clever suspicious plan had not been seen through at this time, if it was exposed, would Master Zhang, who was nearly fifty years old, have a chance to survive? Everything depends on luck, Qin Shubao thought angrily, glanced back at the tall city wall of Licheng County, and saw Pei Caozhi replaced with a new torch and stood on top of the pile of dry firewood. The beard is flying, and the long sleeves are fluttering.

At this moment, the battle outside the Crane Pavilion has entered a stalemate, and Zhang Xutuo took three people and hundreds of gray shirts. After paying the lives of two more small bosses, Shi Zihe finally decided to try for himself to see if there were any traps ahead. Escorted by more than 30 personal soldiers, he stood at the end of the attack sequence and supervised the upward attack of the elite of the two brigades. The area on the hillside for climbing is not too spacious to fit only these six hundred people. If it weren't for the crowded venue, Shi Zihe would have been eager to stuff all the 10,000 people under his command.

Dressed in gray cloth and handkerchiefs, the rogues held up their shields made of willow wood and climbed up cautiously. No one wanted to go fast, and the morale of the whole group had been drained by the morning's fighting. They are all ordinary minions, and they don't need to think long-term like the Mountain King, and they don't have any grand ambitions. At this moment, the only thing they thought of was that the few people in front of them were not easy to mess with, although there were only four people, but none of the robes around them were opponents. Especially Luo Shixin, who likes to cut people's noses, is simply a killer. Whoever fights with him will definitely have no chance of survival. And the guy with his head blackened by the sun and his face full of beard, the bow and arrow in his hand are like eyes, and you can't prevent it.

A feathered arrow flew into the crowd, and the ranks of the rogues were stunned. There are still more than one hundred and twenty steps away from the Crane Pavilion, and the people in the pavilion actually dare to shoot a bow at this distance! After a brief moment of surprise, someone began to scream: "Six masters, six masters of the arrows." Hearing the shout, the minions' footsteps immediately slowed down, and some people kept turning their heads, hoping to hear the order to retreat from the great boss before they were shot by feathered arrows.

"Speed up, he can't send a few arrows!" Shizihe peeked out from behind his shield and shouted at the brothers. "Aren't they just a few arrows? Since you've done this......."

His voice stopped abruptly, and one of his own soldiers stepped forward and used his body to block the flying white feathers for him. Then, as if someone had pushed him in the chest, he fell down to the sky and never had a chance to get up again.

"Protect the big boss, protect the big boss!" I don't know which genius shouted such an order in a hurry. In an instant, the minions who were holding their shields and remembered to move retreated in unison. Near the Shizi River, he raised the willow shield and stacked a protective wall on the periphery of the soldiers that was enough to block the sun. Those who are far away from the Shizi River will shoot a figure on both sides of the protective wall shoulder to shoulder.

"Fuck me, fuck me." Shi Zihe was completely enraged, picked up the shield from the corpse of his own soldier, and smashed the minion soldier who was close to him and turned him on his back. "Grandma, how did Lao Tzu raise you a bunch of waste! Give it all to me, and then there are those who run backwards, Lao Tzu personally lit his sky lantern! ”

The minions were beaten to the point that their noses were blue and their faces were swollen, and they did not dare to resist the obscenity of the lord of the village, and began the second attack tremblingly. Pei Changcai saw that his white belt army could not help, and in order to show the sincerity of cooperation between the two sides, he ordered the brothers to cheer for the friendly army by singing. Hearing the command, more than 10,000 minions stood shoulder to shoulder at the foot of the mountain, and their footsteps stepped out of the same rhythm.

"Juye Zeban is a good son, and he is purely red Luo Jin crotch." This is the war song of Wang Bo's rebellion, after Pei Changcai pulled the pole and went alone, he was illiterate and couldn't make his own war song, so he had to borrow Wang Bo's war song, and changed it from head to tail to boost morale.

"Invade the sky and a half, and the wheel knife shines in the sun." Someone on the hillside was shot again, and the formation froze. The sound of the song at the foot of the mountain also stopped, and then it sounded again.

"Izusawa eats roe deer, and Izusawa eats cattle and sheep." The singing voice gradually turned high-pitched, and the minions looked forward to the rich life that they had not had before and might have in the future, and their faces were full of happiness. The rousing singing cheered everyone up, and the morale of the rogues slowly recovered. On the hillside, the man who climbed forward with a willow shield slowly straightened his waist and began to accelerate his charge.

"Brothers, work harder, whoever passes the pavilion first will be rewarded with a sheep and half a bucket of wine!" Seeing that the army's heart was available, Shi Zihe hid behind his soldiers and ordered loudly.

"One sheep, half a bucket of wine!" The big and small leaders responded in unison, and the cheers were like thunder. Licheng had never been visited by any of the ringing horses before, and many wealthy families from the surrounding counties had moved their homes in. If you can successfully break through the defense line of four people in front of you today and attack the city.......

"Maybe you can get a piece of meat for dinner!" The little leader who rushed to the front slapped smiled and fell, and a volley of feathered arrows slashed his throat. Before he could scream, blood was already pouring into his mouth. Fishy and sweet, with a fresh meat taste. The last time I smelled meat was two days ago, after everyone just took Changqing County. The last time, the last time, was two years ago, when he came back from collecting grain for the owner, and on the way he was lucky enough to hit a rabbit with a stone that injured its hind leg. The rabbit skin was exchanged for half a bucket of rice, and the rabbit meat was boiled with pickles and eaten for more than ten days. It was the happiest and most peaceful day of his life, more peaceful than when death came.

Suddenly, when he heard the arrival of the official army, he raised his sword and swung forward. For example, Liaodong died, beheaded and injured" The song suddenly became tragic and generous, and the minions rushed forward with the blood of their companions. They may be ignorant and rude, they have not even learned how to hold a weapon, but at this moment, no one can deny the bravery of most of them.
