Chapter 1 Home and Country (6)

"Big brother, alas, ......" Zhi Saihua frowned slightly, and shook her head with a wry smile. Ｅ．

There is a way that a gentleman is straightforward, and he can be bullied. 's husband's martial arts group, and his attainments in the art of war and strategy have also entered the house. But since I was a child, I have not suffered any setbacks. In terms of figuring out and grasping people's hearts, he is far inferior to Zheng Xiaofei, who was once chased like a lost dog. Therefore, it is logical to be accidentally deceived by the other party.

"Scared! I thought he was really fearless, it turned out that the kid was bluffing just now!" Zhang Yuanheng, who was secretly glad that the enemy general retreated without a fight, suddenly became wise and brave at this moment, and stepped forward, shouting with his teeth and claws, "I'm still strange, I have already lost both with me, how can I still be so calm in front of General Yang? It turns out that I am bluffing! General Yang, why don't you hurry up and lead your troops to chase after you? Otherwise, if this matter spreads, even if Your Majesty does not punish you, it will be very damaging to your reputation!" ”

"You have to go, you go by yourself. How do you know, then Zheng Ziming is not deliberately showing weakness to lure the enemy?" Zhi Saihua glared at Danfeng, his gaze was like a knife, and he poked Zhang Yuanheng's heart.

Zhang Yuanheng shivered at her glare, and immediately lowered his neck, not daring to point fingers again. However, deep down, he was more and more convinced that Yang Chonggui had just fallen for Zheng Ziming's big deal and missed the opportunity to settle Hebei in World War I.

However, Yang Chonggui has a square temperament, and he doesn't understand his wife's painstaking efforts to defend him. Slowly letting go of the hand on the handle of the knife, the urn said angrily: "It's not to show weakness, he is reluctant to let those brothers under his command." Just now, his back was already soaked with sweat, and even his cloak was wrapped around his body. If I don't talk nonsense with him and lead the army directly to kill, even if I can't take him personally, at least I can kill and wound most of the Cangzhou army under his command, and then ......"

"Then, then go chase it!" Zhang Yuanheng heard this, and the battle ** in his heart suddenly burned, and he opened his throat again and urged loudly.

"One drum, then decline, three and exhaustion!" Yang Chonggui didn't bother to look at him, dropped a famous sentence in the art of war, and turned his horse away.

"You, you ......" Zhang Yuanheng was suddenly annoyed, but he didn't have the courage to force Yang Chonggui and Zhe Saihua to lead the troops to chase and kill Zheng Ziming. Sitting on the back of the horse, he was stunned for a long time, and finally turned his heart sideways, gritted his teeth and scolded in a low voice: "I, isn't it just because I was given a national surname, what is there to be proud of." What you do is what you do, can you really be made a prince? You have a relationship with the surnamed Zheng, but Lao Tzu doesn't. Lao Tzu is going to cut off his head, and see what face you have in the future to claim Yang Invincible?"

After scolding, he didn't care whether Yang Chonggui and his wife heard it or not. went to find some henchmen and asked the latter to separate up and collect the rout. is ready to follow and kill Zheng Ziming, and he will be ashamed.

After the family was rescued by Yang Jiajun, they calmed down and reflected on the entire battle process, and they also felt very aggrieved by defeat. Therefore, one by one, it took about an hour or so to gather three thousand men who dared to fight from the rout.

Previously, the Cangzhou army withdrew in a very hurry, and it didn't care about cleaning up the battlefield at all. Yang Chonggui was arrogant, and he did not disdain to use the weapons, baggage, and horses that Zhang Yuanheng's troops had abandoned during their previous rout as trophies. Therefore, these 3,000 "warriors who dare to fight" did not take much effort to rearm themselves. And everyone found a war horse, flew up, followed Zhang Dashuai, and chased in the direction of the withdrawal of the Cangzhou army.

In the middle of spring, mixed peanut trees, warm wind lavender. Along the way, everyone ran like a fairy. In the blink of an eye, he chased out more than twenty miles, and suddenly, several scouts dressed in Cangzhou military uniforms appeared in Zhang Yuanheng's sight.

"Woo woo, woo woo woo-" The scouts of the Cangzhou army also quickly appeared in pursuit. While jumping on horseback and galloping, he struggled to blow the horn to warn.

"Kill me, kill one, and when I turn around, Lao Tzu will reward him with twenty full-colored copper coins, and he will be honored three times. Seeing that the other party was really defenseless, Zhang Yuanheng was overjoyed. He pointed his spear forward, slashed his throat and opened his reward.

The Hedong soldiers who came with him to make credit were still a little apprehensive before. At this moment, seeing the panicked performance of the scouts of the Cangzhou army, courage suddenly appeared. Shouting and urging his mount to chase after him, he wanted to immediately smash all his opponents into pieces.

However, although the people were eager to fight, the mounts under their crotches were already a little tired. After only chasing three or five miles, he lost the traces of a group of Cangzhou army scouts.

"No, it doesn't matter. They, they can't all run as fast as scouts. Always, you have to stop, stop and rest, and cook. Seeing that the best meritorious service opportunity was gone, Zhang Yuanheng was unwilling. While gasping and slowing down the pace of his mount, he shouted the order, "All of you, stop." Stop, rest, rest. Drink, drink water, eat, eat dry food. The one surnamed Zheng said that he would retreat ninety, ninety miles. That's, that's less than half of that. ”

"Stop, stop, rest, let the mount regain its strength!" the family will disperse and carry out his orders throughout the army. Soon, more than 3,000 "warriors" stopped and jumped off their horses. Use all possible methods to give yourself and your horse a rest.

"Dashuai, the brothers' physical strength has dropped a lot!" a veteran with many years of combat experience walked up to Zhang Yuanheng's side and reminded in a low voice. "Even if you can catch up with the ...... surnamed Zheng"

"Lao Tzu will chase another thirty miles today, and he will collect his troops if he doesn't have twenty miles!" After running for more than half an hour, Zhang Yuanheng's meritorious thoughts are no longer as eager as before. Shaking his head, he interrupted in a low voice, "It's best to catch a few lonely Cangzhou soldiers, cut off their heads, and after we go back, we can say that we will chase and kill Zheng Ziming for more than 30 miles and return with a big victory." Even if you can't catch up, hum ......"

Turning his head to look around at the verdant wilderness around him, a little coldness flashed in his eyes, "I have heard that there is no distinction between the soldiers and the people under the rule of Zheng, and the people in this place are probably all in collusion with Zheng Ziming." You can take some of your brothers to the village in a moment......"

Halfway through the sentence, a thunderclap suddenly sounded in the clear sky. "Boom!", in an instant, the earth shook and the mountains shook!

"Uh!" Zhang Yuanheng was so frightened that he covered his mouth with his hands and looked hard towards the place where the voice began.

It's not Lei Gong, although the thought in his heart just now is not unjust to be struck ten times by the great thunder! It was a sentry and horse, and the total number was more than two thousand. Bypassing the col on the left flank of the battlefield, he went straight to the resting place of the Hedong Army. The first member of the general, holding a copper-clad stick. Along the way, no matter the people or horses of the Hedong Army, they were all smashed and fractured.

"Fight, fight! Hurry up and get on the horse to fight!" Zhang Yuanheng was so frightened that he opened his throat and shouted loudly.

"Zhao Kuangyin, this person is Zhao Kuangyin! Zheng Ziming's second brother Zhao Kuangyin. In the Hedong Army, which was suddenly attacked, someone recognized the identity of the enemy general from his weapon, and cried out to his companions to warn, "Go up together, come forward to stop him together." Otherwise, we'll all have to die here today!"

is not like Zheng Ziming's "fake benevolence and false righteousness", in the legend, Zhao Kuangyin, the second of the three brothers, is a ruthless master. Whether at the time of the engagement, or after the engagement, there is no mercy to the enemy. Especially for those enemy troops who led the way for the Khitans, they almost killed one by one, whether they laid down their arms and surrendered or stubbornly resisted to the end.

"Fight, fight one is enough. Sooner or later, I'm going to die!" there were Hedong soldiers, howling in response, their voices like a lone wolf falling into a trap.

They are not willing to be killed, they want to fight to the death. There are more of them than the attackers, and they still have hope of survival.

However, what makes them desperate is this. Their legs and arms were so weak that they couldn't exert their strength. Even if they barely jumped on their mounts, their horses under their crotches refused to move their hooves.

God seemed to really know the vicious thoughts in Zhang Yuanheng's heart before, and suddenly cast a curse or cast a spell. Let them not draw their bows, so that they could not move their guns, and even their mounts would not accept their orders.

"Boom!" lest the soldiers and horses in Hedong were not flustered enough, and in mid-air, a second thunderclap suddenly sounded. Immediately afterwards, a young general with a white horse and a silver spear, led more than 2,000 cavalry, from behind the woods on the right flank of the battlefield, and Zhao Kuangyin's team was in a scissor shape, giving the Hedong army a blow to the waist.

"Gao Huaide, it's Gao Huaide!" In the chaotic Hedong army, the crying was even more desperate. Many people recognized the identity of the person who came, and at the same time realized that they had completely reached the end of the road today.

"Boom!" Gao Huaide, the young general of the white horse and silver spear, was still unsatisfied, and set fire to a medicine puppet and threw it directly into the ranks of the Hedong Army.

The smoke and dust swayed upward, and the Hedong soldiers, who had already become extremely desperate, could not resist even more. was frightened by the harmless explosion and fled in all directions.

"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, that's a medicine puppet. Taiyuan City has already sold it, and it can't hurt anyone!" At this moment, the only one who can still maintain some courage and reason is only Zhang Yuanheng's general. One by one, they waved their weapons and ran and shouted among the routs.

There is no escape, this place is at least forty miles away from the place where the last battle was held. Forty miles away, even if you run, you can run people to death. Only by calming down and fighting to the death in a group can the big guys have any hope of survival. At the very least, there is a chance to hold out until Yang Wushu comes to the rescue again.

Their prestige is not high enough, and it is difficult to get a response from the soldiers. They desperately hope that their coach Zhang Yuanheng can stand up and raise his arms. However, when they turned their expectant eyes to Shuai, they saw their own coach Zhang Yuanheng trembling and exchanging. He muttered and kept yelling, but not a word related to the war at the moment.

"He, he said that he would retreat from the three houses! Three houses, three houses is ninety miles, this, this is less than forty miles! He, his words don't count. He, he is despicable and shameless!" A family general named Zhang Shou rushed to Zhang Yuanheng's side with difficulty, and finally heard what his handsome man was shouting, and his eyes were so angry that he almost vomited blood on the spot.

"Retreat, what retreat? Deceive! The surname Zheng deceives. His words don't count at all. It's only less than forty miles, it's only less than forty miles?" As if completely forgetting where he was, Zhang Yuanheng snorted and cried, crying so sadly.

"Dashuai, it's not done, let's go!" Zhang Shouqiang, the general, swallowed the blood in his throat and eyes, pushed him violently, and urged with red eyes, "The brothers and the war horses have just begun to soothe their muscles and bones, and no one can lift their strength at this moment." Hurry up, while no one notices you, hurry up and ask Yang Wushu for help!"

With his own commander like this, he hoped that he would stay behind and call on the brothers to resist. Let him go, while Zhao Kuangyin and Gao Huaide haven't killed Shuai yet, they will escape. As for whether you can escape or not, leave it to God!

"Ahh He trotted towards a horse that looked fairly energetic, jumped up, and slammed his legs into the belly.

"Well, hum, hum......" The poor mount had not yet been able to chew the essence before he was about to be urged to the road again, shaking his head and tail in anger, and was reluctant to take a step away.

"Hurry up, don't go, Lao Tzu will kill you!" Zhang Yuanheng was so anxious that his eyes were spewing smoke and fire, he pulled out his waist knife and swiped it fiercely at the horse's buttocks. "Poof!", the red light splashed, and a half-foot-long knife suddenly appeared on the buttocks of the war horse, and blood gushed out along both sides of the blade.

"Sigh, shhh Along the way, countless soldiers were trampled over.

"Ah......h But after all, he didn't care about finding someone who rode a horse to collide with him, but continued to compete for his mount and tried every possible means to escape for his life.

After all, it was more than 3,000 people and the same number of war horses, not 6,000 sheep. Even if they lost the strength and courage to continue to resist, they also delayed Zhao Kuangyin and Gao Huaide for a lot of time.

When the two finally realized that the commander of the enemy army was not under his command at all, they could only find a few vague backs at the edge of the battlefield. Which one is Zhang Yuanheng, but it is impossible to tell at all.

"Let's send a few more teams to chase after each other, I don't believe he can fly to the sky!" Before the two main generals could make a decision, Zhao Kuangyin's younger brother Zhao Guangyi had already rushed out first, and he proposed loudly at the same time.

"Stop, don't chase!" Zhao Kuangyin broke off with a snort, and scared his younger brother into pulling the mount. "Otherwise, military law is engaged!"

"Yes!" Zhao Guangyi didn't dare to disobey the order, agreed, and returned with his head bowed.

Zhao Kuangyin glanced at his younger brother and added coldly: "With General Gao and me, where is your turn to make decisions on your own? I will let you go this time, if you do it again next time, you will definitely be served by the military stick!"

"Yes!" Zhao Guangyi didn't dare to quibble, and bowed his hand with a face full of grievances. After a while, he took advantage of his brother's inattention, leaned his head to Gao Huaide's side, and asked in a low voice, "General Gao, why didn't you speak just now." Obviously, you can catch the surname Zhang back......"

"Catch him back, who will deal with Yang Invincible for us?" Gao Huaide shrugged and threw a freshly lit medicine puppet out more than forty paces away.

"Boom!" The medicine puppet imitated by Cangzhou craftsmen exploded violently, sprinkling countless sparks in the air, falling like a hero, and the colors disappeared with the wind.
