Chapter 159: Temperament

But people who are more complicated and vigilant will think about it carefully, could this be a trap of the enemy? Isn't it precisely the purpose of the enemy to besiege me through this side of the city?

So these people who are cautious by nature and have more complicated minds will choose to flee from the north gate, which alludes to the truth that the more dangerous the place, the safer it is, if they do so, they just plunge headlong into the pocket array arranged by Qin Feng.

In the middle of the night, the north door was quietly opened, and a head protruded from the door. This place was stormed during the day, and the city gate was almost smashed by the siege car, and a lot of stones were blocked in the city gate hole, just to prevent the enemy from attacking from here.

It seems that the people inside had removed all the stones from the cave in the city gate in order to escape from here.

A man cowered and came out of the city gate, walked lightly out of dozens of meters away to look around, searched, found no signs of enemy troops outside, and immediately returned to the city gate to report: "General, I have investigated, but there is no one outside!" ”

The city gate was completely opened, and Li Tong, who was covered in blood, rode on horseback and turned around and waved his hand back: "No one is allowed to make a sound, go!" ”

At this time, there were less than 200 people still alive, and many of them were wounded.

Some of these men rode horses, some on mules, and some even on donkeys, which were previously used to transport grain.

After leaving the city gate, the team left the city gate half a mile away, Li Tong couldn't help but stop his horse, he turned his head to look at the direction of the grain and grass and ordnance hoarding in the city, and muttered to himself: "Why hasn't the fire started yet?" Mizune's movements can't be so slow! Could it be that something has changed? ”

Li Tong left behind to burn the grain and grass and ordnance, the people who were left by Li Tong did encounter a change, Shuigen and his party of five people, they were ordered to wait for Li Tong and others to leave the city and then set fire to the grain, grass and ordnance, not to leave a grain of grain and an arrow for the Flame Army, and after the fire, it will definitely attract the attention of the Flame Army, and the Flame Army will definitely send troops into the city, and the possibility of them being able to escape is very small, and they plan to hide on the spot, and then find a way to get out of the city after the matter calms down.

At this moment, they were about to set fire, and the eagle-eyed guards sent by Lu Sheng happened to arrive, and the two sides fought, Shuigen and others were killed on the spot, and this batch of grain, grass and military boots were also saved.

"General, the fire has not appeared for a long time, Shuigen and they are only afraid that something has happened, let's go quickly, if it is discovered by the cavalry patrol of the Flame Army, it will be troublesome!" A pro-soldier reminded Li Tong.

Li Tong frowned: "Impossible, those traitors in the city have been executed by us and others, it shouldn't be possible for them to have an accident!" ”

"General, don't talk about this anymore, it's important to get out of here quickly!" The pro-soldiers hurriedly persuaded.

Li Tong sighed: "Forget it, maybe this batch of grain and grass ordnance should be said by the Flame Army, let's go, drive-"

A team of less than 200 men followed Li Tong to the north.

The team walked only two miles, Li Tong's keen perception sensed that something was wrong, when he walked over before, he could hear the sound of insects along the way gradually disappearing, and here, he couldn't hear the sound of insects from beginning to end.

The team behind stopped Li Tong from advancing, and they were all puzzled.

Before the men could ask what had happened, many arrows were shot from the darkness on both sides.

"Ahh

A large number of arrows came over, and many soldiers on horseback suddenly fell down one after another, and Li Tong immediately shouted: "Hurry up, get rid of one count, drive-" He rode his horse and galloped forward.

As soon as he ran here, the rest of the people also rushed to the cattle first, but one of the animals continued to fall from arrows.

"Chirp-" Li Tong's mount at the front suddenly fell forward, fell to the ground and slid out a long way, the war horse kept neighing in pain, trying to get up but never able to get up.

The other people's mounts fell forward as well, and there was a wail of pain.

Li Tong quickly got up and took a look, it turned out that someone had pulled a few tripwires here, no wonder all these war horses would be planted, this black light was blinding, not to mention at night, it was daytime, if you didn't pay attention, it was not easy to find a tripwire.

At this time, a large number of torches were lit nearby, and countless ambush soldiers came out from all directions and surrounded Li Tong and his party, all of whom were carrying swords and holding spears and shouting to kill them.

"Poof"

"Poof"

"When, but"

People are constantly being hacked to death and stabbed to death, and the sound of weapons colliding is constantly coming out.

Li Tong is brave, there are no less than 20 sergeants who died at his hands, these flame army sergeants have been trained hard for a year, and their combat effectiveness is not comparable to ordinary sergeants, Li Tong can kill so many sergeants, his combat power is already extraordinary, and the force among the generals is also at the middle and upper level.

Although Li Tong can fight, the sergeants around him are very stretched, but with a cup of tea, there are only four people left around him, and they look at each other back to back vigilantly at the Flame Army soldiers who are constantly surrounding them, but the expressions on their faces and the trembling of their bodies and legs betray them.

"Li Tong, the matter has come to this point, and it will not come down?" Qin Feng walked over with a three-pointed knife and asked.

When Li Tong saw Qin Feng, his face was hideous, and he roared towards Qin Feng with a blood-dripping war knife, "It's just death, kill-"

Qin Feng's eyes emitted a cold light, and the three-pointed knife in his hand was cut down like lightning, and Li Tong, who had just rushed in, was cut squarely, and a long gash appeared on his chest from his left shoulder to his right abdomen, and a large amount of blood flowed out of it.

With a "clang", the war knife in Li Tong's hand fell to the ground, and the person also fell down.

"General!" When the remaining four pro-soldiers saw Li Tong's tragic death, they let out a cry of grief, glanced at each other, and each pulled their knives across their necks.

"Zizi ······" The carotid arteries of the four people kept spurting blood, and several people fell to the ground one after another, their bodies were still convulsing, and after a while, they were completely immobile.

No one spoke at the scene, and everyone expressed respect and respect with silence.

Even if the two sides are hostile, they still have respect for Li Tong, an enemy general who would rather die in battle than surrender, and everyone admires these four pro-soldiers who committed suicide together after seeing the main general die.

After a long time, Qin Feng said loudly: "Bury General Li according to the general's etiquette, and the rest are all warriors, and they will be buried next to General Li's tomb!" ”

"No!"

According to the ceremonial burial system, there are corresponding regulations, the general's tomb must meet a certain standard, the size and shape of the tomb, and the extent of the burial utensils and property, which are all rules.

The sergeants gathered the bodies of Li Tong and a few of his own soldiers and carried them back to the city, while the bodies of the other sergeants were gathered together and buried in a piece of land.
