Chapter 33: The Knife Bearer

Kong Rong was still sitting in the mansion reading a book, but the bamboo slips in front of him seemed to have not been turned for a long time, and his eyes were completely unfocused.

In fact, Kong Rong is not a rotten Confucian who only knows how to talk loudly, he has no choice, no one knows better than himself in the war!

Instead of going to the city wall to cause chaos, it is better to hand over the power to someone who is good at it, and what you have to do is to stabilize the morale of the army, as for reading books and chatting, it is just a means to enhance confidence.

"Alas......" Kong Rong sighed softly, slowly put down the bamboo slip, and said to himself: "I wonder if I can survive this time?" ”

"Report ......!" Just as Kong Rong shook his head secretly, a soldier covered in blood ran in.

Kong Rong looked at the soldiers who ran in in a panic, and his heart sank suddenly, thinking that the city was ruined and decadent: "The general trend is gone!" ”

And this soldier was the one who ran from the city tower to report the news, and after coming in, he didn't pay attention to Kong Rong's face, and shouted excitedly: "Report to the government, reinforcements are here, reinforcements are here!" ”

"What?" Kong Rong stood up violently, his eyes staring at the soldier tightly, as if his whole body was trembling slightly.

"General Koji's reinforcements have arrived outside the city, and the thieves have stopped attacking the city!"

"Whew......!" Kong Rong wiped his forehead with his hand, and then quickly ran out of the door.

……

Outside the city, Tai Shi Ci and Guan Hai have been fighting for dozens of rounds, in fact, Tai Shi Ci has already had the opportunity to kill Guan Hai, only because Lu Yi asked to be captured alive, so the two of them have been fighting for so long.

It's easy to kill, but it's hard to capture.

The two fought for another seven or eight rounds, and at this time, Guan Hai gradually understood in his heart that Tai Shici wanted to capture him alive, and couldn't help but be furious, thinking in his heart: "The skills are not as good as people, and death is death, how can the husband suffer such humiliation?" "If you want to, you're going to fight for your life.

But the gap in strength is not desperate to recover, before three moves, Tai Shi Ci shouted, stabbed out a shot with all his strength, Guan Hai and the busy knife resisted, when a bang, Tai Shi Ci's spear tip was hitting Guan Hai's hilt.

Guan Hai only felt a strange force coming from the knife, and just wanted to push Tai Shici's gun out, but unexpectedly, the war horse under his crotch suddenly screamed, took two steps back and fell to the ground.

Guan Hai's war horse was already thin and weak, and he had been carrying Guan Hai for so long, and finally couldn't withstand Tai Shici's full blow, and fell, and at the same time overturned Guan Hai.

Tai Shi Ci didn't expect this to happen, seeing that Guan Hai still wanted to struggle to get up, the tip of the gun touched his throat, and said: "If it weren't for the general's order, you would have died early, wouldn't you understand?" ”

Guan Hai was stunned for a moment after hearing this, slowly stopped struggling, let go of the big knife in his hand, and lay on the ground decadently, covering his face with his arms, and tears flowed endlessly.

"Run!"

When the thieves saw Qu Shuai being captured, they immediately panicked, screamed, and fled for their lives!

On the other side, when Lu Yi saw Guan Hai being captured and the thieves fled, he immediately shouted: "Surrender and avoid death, kill with me!" ”

The five hundred first behind him listened to the order, put the bow and crossbow on his body again, and rushed with his gun, and the suspicious soldiers in the woods behind him were all killed at this time, and their morale was like a rainbow!

Kong Rong had already arrived at the head of the city for a long time, and when he saw the thief defeated, he hurriedly said to the trick around him: "The thief has lost his courage, Zijing should go out of the city to chase him!" ”

"No!"

The situation was urgent, and he didn't say much, and shouted loudly: "Those who can still fight, follow me out of the city to kill the enemy!" "Let's go down to the city first.

The defenders of the city, although everyone was wounded and tired, but when they heard the words of the lead, they all shook their spirits, their eyes were firm, and they quickly followed.

After a few days of getting along day and night, the soldiers have long been full of respect for the tricks that always take the lead, and they are willing to be driven.

……

Tens of thousands of thieves, defeated like a mountain, rushed to escape, but in fact, in the end, not many people really escaped, because they really couldn't run, and slowly gave up resistance and surrendered directly to their knees.

Lu Yi didn't care about the things on the battlefield anymore, whether it was capturing prisoners or leading the troops to pursue, everything was handled by Zhang He, and he didn't need to bother anymore.

Lu Yi came to Tai Shici's side and dismounted, and at this time, Guan Hai had already stood up with the help of Tai Shici, standing with his head down, with an unwilling face.

Tai Shici saw Lu Yi coming over, hugged his fists and said, "Fortunately, I didn't disgrace the general's order!" ”

Lu Yi stretched out his hand to help Tai Shi Ci tighten his cloak, and said sincerely: "Ziyi, I am really fierce, I can't do more!" ”

Tai Shici's expression was solemn after hearing this, and he hurriedly replied: "The general is falsely praised! ”

Guan Hai on the side looked at the two of them, and then at Koji Yan who was staring at him with a spear, his eyes were full of grievances.

After praising Tai Shici, Lu Yi turned to look at Guan Hai, put away his smile, and asked: "You led the people to besiege the city, and you deserved to die, but Nian Ru also conspired for tens of thousands of subordinates, so he ordered Ziyi to spare your life, and now he will be captured, will he surrender?" ”

Guan Hai almost fell into tears when he heard Liyi's sentence "also for his subordinates", and his grievances for many years were finally understandable, so he held back his tears, knelt on the ground with a "plop", and clasped his fists with both hands and said: "Hai knows that he is guilty of a deep sin, and he does not ask for forgiveness from the general, but is willing to be a slave to repay the general's grace of not killing!" After saying that, he fell to the ground and couldn't stand it for a long time.

Seeing Guan Hai's true feelings, Lu Yi said sincerely, and said with satisfaction: "Let's go, I don't lack slaves, I only lack a sword-carrying general, do you want to?" ”

Guan Hai suddenly raised his head after hearing this, and said solemnly: "From now on, all the general's orders will be obeyed!" "Say goodbye.

After hearing this, Koji Yi laughed, bent down to help Guan Hai, wiped the dirt from his forehead with his own hands, and said, "I believe in it!" ”

Guan Hai looked excited and didn't say much, standing upright on Ko Yi's side, not squinting.

Lu Yi nodded, and instructed Guan Hai: "The scattered soldiers are your subordinates, you should listen to your words, you can go and surrender quickly, so as not to cause more killing!" ”

"No!" Guan Hai received the order and strode away.

Tai Shi Ci saw that Lu Yi let Guan Hai leave on his own, and said worriedly: "Why did the general let him go by himself, in case the thief's heart is difficult to change, wouldn't he regret it?" ”

After hearing this, Lu Yi looked confident, and said slowly: "There is no doubt about employing people, and there is no need for suspicious people, not to mention that I am really in danger of Beihai, and if the danger is solved now, the matter has been done. Then he got on his horse and ran to the city gate.

After hearing this, Tai Shi Ci looked at the back of Lu Yi in the distance, and sighed: "The real lord is also!" ”

……

Outside the city gate, Kong Rong led a group of civil and military officers to wait for Liyi, seeing Liyi coming, Kong Rong hurriedly stepped forward, hugged his fists and said with a smile: "If it weren't for the general, Beihai would not be protected, and thousands of people would die at the hands of thieves. ”

Koi Yi hurriedly dismounted and helped Kong Rong up, and replied: "Down-and-out people, there is nowhere to rely on, dare to take credit, Kong Beihai is also tormented!" ”

After listening to it, Kong Rong didn't know the meaning of Koji's words, and replied solemnly: "The general's affairs have been known, all of them are Yuan Shao's faults, and they have nothing to do with the general. ”

After speaking, he stretched out his hand and said: "Please enter the city to talk!" ”
