Chapter 155: The undercurrent is surging, and the cobwebs are skillfully spread
The more than 100 cavalry were the remnants of Xiahoudun's surprise attack, and they were ordered to raid with Xiahoudun when Ganning Mingjin collected his troops. But the good times didn't last long, as the angry Gan Ning halberd cut the lightly injured Xiahou Dun to death, these more than 100 horsemen were unable to retreat into the pass with the large army because of their previous greed, and at this moment, they pitifully became the object of Gan Ning's anger.
These cavalry are also a rare elite in Cao's army, and their individual strength is naturally much higher than that of ordinary soldiers, at this time, they know that they are dead, and they have not fallen into a state of discouragement, and they also know that there is no point in surrendering, so they only silently lifted the reins, continued to scatter, turned into a starry sky, and constantly created chaos and casualties in the Lin Li army.
It took nearly an hour for the hundred horsemen to be killed, and it was already dusk at this time, and the two teams of soldiers and horses of Lin Li's army converged in one place.
At the end of the war, Xu Huang and Zhang Xiu took off their armor with the help of their attendants, because the blood had not subsided, in this early spring, the two of them were sweating and swaying into the Chinese army's tent.
When the two looked at it, they saw that Huang Xu, Pang De, Wen Ping, Han De and others were already tired leaning in the camp, while Gan Ning reprimanded Li Kan and Liang Xing with a wide face. Xu Huang and Zhang Xiu glanced at each other, both of them were confused, and sat down quietly. After listening to it for a long time, I also know a rough idea.
But it turned out that the two people who were scolded had something to do with Xiahoudun's surprise attack. Because Jia Xu's military order is in front, Pang De and Xiliang three generals must take the lead in every battle, and they will not die, when Xiahoudun went out of the city, it was Zhang Heng who retreated in formation, and when Xiahoudun pounced on the tiger from the mountain, it was Zhang Heng who collided with him at the first time. Although Xiahoudun was blinded in the left eye by Huang Xu's arrow before, he recuperated from his injuries for several months, and his strength basically recovered eighty percent, which can be returned to the first-class, but Zhang Heng is only a second-rate martial artist, and he is extremely tired, and he was poked to death by Xiahoudun after resisting Sanhe.
But it was the tragic death of Zhang Heng as a general that the siege troops would instantly enter a state of panic, and they were killed by Xiahoudun three times in and three out, burning most of the ladders and rushing cars, and suffering heavy losses.
Gan Ning has always cherished his soldiers, annoyed that Zhang Heng's incompetence caused a rout, and remembered that he had suffered but had no success when attacking the city in the past, and he was disgusted.
Unlike Gan Ningchu, who is the commander-in-chief, Xu Huang has rich experience in leading troops, and he knows that this fact is no wonder for the three generals of Xiliang, but he has been side by side with Pang De for more than a month, and he is biased towards Pang De, who is hostile to the three of Xiliang, and it is difficult to stand up to defend Li Kan and Liang Xing at this time.
But seeing the blood stains on Li Kan and Liang Xing in the tent, their knees were sore and weak after a day of fierce fighting, and they were sad and angry Zhang Heng's death, and at this time they were scolded by Gan Ning with their heads and faces, but they were unable to refute, only to feel angry, their eyes were black, and they fainted in fatigue and anger.
Seeing that the two of them had fainted, Gan Ning knew that his behavior was excessive, so he called someone to carry them down to rest, coughed lightly, and said:
"Gongming, Bojin, you two came just in time, the war is tight at the moment, although Ning has the heart to break through the Hangu Pass quickly, but Cao Ren is bent on fighting a war of attrition in the Turtle Pass, Ning is really helpless. I wonder if Komeiko has any idea to solve our army's predicament? ”
Xu Huang waved his hand and said:
"Xingba is relieved, and don't be in a hurry for the generals. In addition, we have just received news from Chang'an that the Lord is coming from Xuzhou and will be able to join our army here on the latest 10 days. In my opinion, there is no much point in us attacking the city now, and you are also suffering countless scars in the month of siege, so it is better to rest for the time being, watch Hangu Pass, and wait for the lord to arrive and then make plans. ”
Gan Ning nodded, smiled bitterly, and sighed:
Ning Zao heard that the lord had made a good name in Xuzhou, and he and General Shi stirred up the storm and made Cao Cao collapse. Thinking of you, I was ordered by the military division to lead tens of thousands of troops to attack Hangu Pass, but we were defeated one after another, and we really lost the face of the lord! ”
As soon as these words came out, all the generals felt that their faces were dull, only Zhang Xiu saw that the atmosphere in the tent was too dignified, and said with a smile:
"We are indeed ashamed, but why should you be arrogant, today you are very powerful, close the two halberds and hit Xiahoudun hard, that is, cut off Cao Cao's arm, the lord will also praise when he learns about it."
Speaking of this, Huang Xu also nodded again and again and said in appreciation:
"It has spread in the army, I heard that Xiahoudun was carried away when he was already out of breath and less in air, I am afraid that it will be difficult to lift a gun and get on the horse again in three or five years, and his arm is broken, whether it is arm strength or marksmanship will be greatly affected, I am afraid that even if Xiahoudun recovers from his injuries, it will be difficult to return to the first-class level in this life, with his status in the Cao army, what General Zhang said to cut off Cao Cao's arm is true."
The generals are also echoed.
Gan Ning was relieved and said sincerely:
"Ning Yijie Wufu, fortunately, can also be with the generals. However, the matter of the military array is better than that of you, and if there is anything inappropriate, I hope that you can give more guidance in the future. The order goes down, the lord is coming, and our army will be repaired for the time being, and recuperate! ”
.......
....
Lin Lijun made up his mind to repair under Hangu Pass and wait for the arrival of the lord, while Cao Ren made a barrier and would not abandon the geographical advantage to take the initiative, so it was rare for the two sides to calm down.
But I don't want to calm down, and a deadly conspiracy is quietly unfolding.
However, it was said that Li Kan and Liang Xing fainted that day and were carried down by the guards to the side tent to rest.
The two were seriously injured, and they were so angry that they woke up until midnight and three watches, and found that the wounds on their bodies had been properly bandaged, but their stomachs were empty and hungry. The two of them were in an awkward position, so they didn't even have a deputy general, and when they were in trouble, they struggled to get up, and they wanted to go out of the tent to find some food.
At this moment, a guard lifted the tent door, held a dinner plate in his hand, and brought in some porridge and water cakes, and the two hurriedly grabbed it, devoured it, and glanced at each other, and found that the other party was embarrassed, and couldn't help but shed tears together.
"Sixth brother, I knew that there would be such a thing as now, you and I really might as well fight to the death with the lord that day, and it is better to be regarded as a loyal martyr's bone than to fall to the point of losing a dog like now, and be humiliated every day. hated Gan Ning for not being a son of man, so he said that the second brother died in battle today, and he didn't even have half a word of mourning, and today, we don't know where the bones of the second brother are, if there is a spirit under his nine springs, it is difficult to look away! ”
Liang Xing cried bitterly when he heard this:
"Fourth brother, you're right, I'd better wait for a real death. It's just that I hated Gan Ning for insulting me several times and forcing my second brother to death, but I can't avenge my second brother with a blade. ”
The two of them were hugging their heads and crying, and they couldn't help but say a lot of things like wanting to take Gan Ning's dog's life.
Cold, Li Kan found that the attendant who brought in the meal was standing quietly aside, his hands hanging down, and he didn't put down the meal and go out as usual, and his brothers were in a trance and hungry in their stomachs, so they didn't notice it at the first time, but asked him to listen to all the words quietly.
Li Kan's heart was cold, and he glanced at Liang Xing. He is injured, and his movements are not as sharp as before, and once he can't kill people in the first place, and simply don't make the slightest movement, it may let the guards leak out their words, so it will reach Gan Ning's ears, and it will be difficult for the two of them to die.
Just as his fingers were about to touch the hilt of the knife, the guard suddenly moved, Li Kan was startled, and saw the guard walking slowly in front of the two of them, Shi Shiran saluted, and then said respectfully:
"The two generals don't have to think about killing people and killing people, and they won't pass on half a word of the news they just heard."
Li Kan felt more and more that this guard was behaving strangely, and shouted in a low voice:
"Who are you? How to break into our army camp? What a plot! ”
The guard laughed loudly, took off the felt hat from his head, showed a broad face, and said:
"It's hard for Gan Ning to act so unjustly, the two generals can still use this big camp as a 'self-army camp', but it's a pity that Gan Ning is not there, otherwise I will be greatly appreciated when I learn about the loyalty of the two generals, maybe I can also give the wound medicine, and I don't need to go around looking for Jin Chuangyao to bandage the two generals."
Li Kan looked at the clean and neat wounds on his body, and knew that if it weren't for the veterans in the battalion, he couldn't help but become more and more strange, he was annoyed that Gan Ning was ruthless, and blurted out:
"Hugh has to mention Ganning Pifu again, in this life and this life, even if he dies, he will die with him!"
The guard smiled and said:
"I knew that the two generals were not afraid of death, but I hated God without eyes, with the current situation, the two generals were afraid that they would fight with their lives, and it would be difficult to move a single hair of him, let alone take revenge."
Li Kan knew that what he said was true, and said hatefully:
"Who are you? Any ideas? I see that you don't look like an ordinary person, is it possible that you have a way to help my brother kill Gan Ning? It's just that I want to wait for the fire and oil pot, just say it. ”
Liang Xing also nodded in agreement, which shows that Gan Ning's behavior in the past month has indeed made these two people hate to the core.
The square-faced guard sat down cross-legged and said:
"Since the two generals have this determination, they will not sell it. A certain is Cao Gong's account under the Fenwei Lieutenant Yu Ban, when Ma Teng attacked Chang'an, he was ordered by the military division to infiltrate the Chang'an soldiers and horses, and has been waiting for an opportunity for half a year, and now there are two generals to help, a certain plan, call him Gan Ning's head is different! ”
Li Kan's eyes suddenly flashed with joy, that is, hatred and longing for revenge were ignited.
