Chapter 370 Song Jiangcheng said Ma Zhen
If there is one, there will be a second, and at the moment, Han Bolong can't control it, killing each other, plus the thunder stones and rolling wood with fire in the city, and the oil and gold juice are smashed under the city as if they don't want money, in less than an hour, the six thousand Jin troops only fled back to about 1,000 people, and the others all died under the city, and it was a thousand corpses and a sea of blood.
"Ahh Seeing that his more than 5,000 soldiers and horses were all folded under Linjin City, the angry Cui Daocheng screamed violently, but he was helpless, so he immediately withdrew his troops and went back angrily.
returned to the big tent of the Chinese army, Han Bolong also returned at this time, the armor on his body was scattered, and half of his hair was burned by the fire, and he was embarrassed.
Walking to the big tent of the Chinese army with a sad face, he knelt down in front of Cui Daocheng and said bitterly: "General, the last general is incompetent, resulting in the defeat of the 5,000 army under the city of Linjin, and I implore the two armies to punish them." ”
"Smack!" Seeing Han Bolong, the angry Cui Daocheng itched his teeth, the five thousand men and horses didn't even arrive for an hour, and the most hateful thing was that the officials and soldiers lost five thousand in vain when they saw the loss of even a hundred people, which made Cui Daocheng not angry, and he couldn't wait to push Han Bolong out and behead him now.
"You ......" Cui Daocheng pointed at Han Bolong, who was kneeling on the ground with his hand, he didn't say anything for a long time, he was angry just now, and when he calmed down, this Han Bolong really can't be killed, he will kill the general first when he fights, and it is useless for the army, and this Han Bolong is not a wine bag and rice bag and straw bag, he was born in the Western Army, and he is also a general on the battlefield, it is useful to keep him, the most important thing is that Han Bolong is Song Jiang's henchman, killing him will offend Song Jiang, it is not cost-effective.
At that moment, Cui Daocheng sat down slowly, and said hatefully: "Marching and fighting, victory or defeat is a common thing in soldiers, General Han doesn't have to worry about it, today's matter is not in the general, it is the poor monk who has ventured, and Ma Zhen is also cunning, but the death penalty can be avoided, and the living crime cannot be escaped, so I will ask you to wear the crime and make meritorious service under the account, and tomorrow I will transfer you 5,000 soldiers and horses to attack the city again." ”
When Han Bolong heard this, he was immediately overjoyed, and hurriedly hugged his fists heavily, and said: "Thank you for the general's grace not to kill, Han Bolong will definitely repay the general with death, and look at the last general before the battle tomorrow." ”
Cui Daocheng saw Han Bolong's reaction, nodded with satisfaction, what he wanted was this effect, so that Han Bolong owed him a favor, and he would be a big help when the time came, and said at the moment: "Then tomorrow will depend on the general, the general is hard, go down and rest." ”
"Yes, the last general will retire."
Han Bolong retreated, and the news of the defeat of the army under Linjin City today also reached the ears of Tian Mai, the deputy marshal of the rear battalion, although he didn't care about anything, he ate and drank all day long, but it was in the case of the victory of the army, and now the army is defeated, and the loss is still the soldiers and horses of his Tian family.
In the big tent that Tian bought also had four generals sent to him by Tian Hu, Ji Wenbing, Fu Xiang, Yu Deyuan and Fan Yuming.
These four people have to be ordered to take care of the grain and grass and protect the safety of Tian Mai, so they don't care about the march and fight on weekdays, and when they heard the news of the defeat in the battle ahead, Fan Yuming arched his hand towards Tian Mai and said: "Deputy marshal, then Song Jiang and the others are all from Caokou, where do they know what to march and fight, but they are just rabble, reckless people, the general of the Hezhong Mansion is Hu Yanzan after Hu Yanxuan, and the Yongxing Army Festival Envoy is also a famous general, and the last general will see that Song Jiang and others are definitely not their opponents, we still have to keep an eye on it, Don't ask Song Jiang to buy us and be cannon fodder. ”
As soon as Fan Yuming's voice fell, Fu Xiang next to him also nodded and agreed, and said: "Deputy marshal, this Song Jiang has great ambitions, but unfortunately he has no talent and no virtue, but he relies on his lip service. ”
Tian Mai had a gloomy face and nodded, not that he was in a bad mood, but that he had been drinking too much for many years, which caused his body to be weak, and his whole face was miserable and white, with a little cyan in the white, so when he looked at it, he had a gloomy face, and then Tian Mai said: "The front is just a small defeat, we are accountable, and we can't take Song Jiang and them what to do, after all, he is the commander of the first army, and this is the case, you go down first." ”
Fan Yuming and Fu Xiang could only nod when they heard Tian Mai say this, got up and retreated.
At the same time, Song Jiang naturally got the news a long time ago, and heard that Cui Daocheng, Han Bolong, and Ma Yuan lost 8,000 military horses in two days, and they were even more surprised, the three of them were his henchmen, how could they be defeated so badly, and immediately ordered that the army join the advance and rush to Linjin City as soon as possible to round with the vanguard army.
In a short conclusion, in the next two days, Linjin City was shouting and killing every day, and the two sides came and went, and the city wall of Linjin City changed hands several times, which was very tragic.
On the third day, although Linjin City was crumbling, it was still in the hands of the official army, 5,000 officers and soldiers, and in a few days, there were only less than 1,500 soldiers who could fight, and the Jin army suffered heavy losses, losing 12,000 men and horses, and Ma Yuan was seriously injured, and was slashed to the chest by Ma Zhen, and the next point was disemboweled.
At this time, Song Jiang led the main force of the army, and also came to Linjin City, looking at such a tragic scene, the city wall of Linjin City was dilapidated, and many places smoked by the fire were pitch black, and he was curious about the general guarding the city, and then came to the big tent of the Chinese army, and saw Cui Daocheng and Han Bolong, Ma Yuan had returned to Weisheng to recuperate because of his injury.
At that moment, Song Jiangduan sat on top of the handsome case, looked at his brothers on both sides, and was also arrogant, looked at Cui Daocheng next to him, and asked: "Master Cui, what is the origin of the guards in Linjin City, they actually have such ability to block my 20,000 troops under the city, I am a little curious about this general." ”
Cui Daocheng heard Song Jiang ask, and replied: "Brother, the name of the defender of Linjin City is Ma Zhen, who is a fierce general of the Western Army and a general of Hezhong Mansion. ”
"Hahaha, the person who can make Master Cui admire must be extraordinary, today's army will rest for a day, and tomorrow morning, I will personally go to meet this Ma Zhen for a while." Song Jiang laughed and said.
There was nothing to say all night, the next day was bright, the Jin army set up a position under the city of Linjin as usual, but today's soldiers and horses were many times more than in the past, and the handsome flag also changed.
This change of the Jin army, naturally can not escape Ma Zhen's eyes, standing at the head of the city at the moment to see the handsome flag of the Jin army outside the city, waving in the wind, embroidered with a big "Song" word with gold thread, Ma Zhen's heart sank, knowing that the main force of the Jin army is finally here.
Song Jiang in the Jin army array was draped all over his body, wearing gold armor, and a sword at his waist, and he stepped forward at the moment, and came to the city, followed by the general Kuang Jinlong, holding a gold-backed broadsword to protect Song Jiang's safety, Song Jiang strangled the war horse under his crotch, and then shouted loudly to the city: "This marshal is the Taifu of the Jin Kingdom, the general Song Jiang of Yunlu, which is General Ma Zhen, please come down for a while." ”
After a while, the city gate slowly opened, and a general came out from inside, one person and one horse, no entourage, Song Jiang saw the person, took a careful look at it at the moment, and secretly praised it in his heart, and saw that Ma Zhen was wearing fish scale armor, wearing a phoenix winged iron helmet, his face was resolute, his thick eyebrows were like charcoal, King Kong was angry, the bridge of his nose was straight, his jaw was short, his right hand was holding a knife in one hand, his left hand was lightly pulling the reins, and the horse under his crotch was abnormal, and his majesty was awe-inspiring.
When Ma Zhen came to him, Song Jiang hugged his fist at Ma Zhen on his horse and said: "General Ma, I have heard of a great name for a long time, General Ma can block my 20,000 army for several days with a mere 5,000 military horses, and he is a true hero, which is admired by Song Jiang." ”
Ma Zhen looked at Song Jiang, crossed his eyebrows coldly, snorted coldly, and said: "Traitor and traitor, if you have something to say, I won't have so much gossip to tell you, if there is anything, see you on the battlefield." ”
"Hahaha, the general is so angry, since the general said it clearly, then Song Jiang is not nonsense, now the Emperor of the Great Song Dynasty is mediocre, the people are displaced, and the world is in chaos, it is the time for heroes such as us to make meritorious contributions, the general is strong in martial arts, why not abandon the secret and surrender to me, and when the time comes, it will be no ......problem to wait for worship," Song Jiang gushed endlessly.
"Shut up!" As soon as Song Jiang's words were halfway through, Ma Zhen's face sank, his face turned blue with anger, and he let out a loud shout, interrupting Song Jiang.
