Chapter Seventy-Five: The Death of King Chuang
"Huang Wazi, why are you here?" Gao Yingxiang looked at Li Zicheng in surprise, and after speaking, he looked at the soldiers behind him suspiciously.
"Uncle, I saw you two days ago when you were shooting arrows. I'm waiting for you here today. Li Zicheng said excitedly.
Then he told him how Han Jin'er gave him a green hat, how he took the lead in killing Gai Junlu, and was finally rescued by Xu Zhi'an, until he was promoted to the general flag, and told him from beginning to end.
Gao Yingxiang was stunned when he heard this, he didn't expect his nephew's experience to be so wonderful these days.
"Then how did you end up here as a soldier?" Gao Yingxiang vaguely guessed something, but still asked.
"Since I saw my uncle two days ago, I have been very anxious, and the official army is very strong. The siege of Ganquan was a plan to encircle three and lack one, deliberately allowing his uncle to escape from the east, intending to annihilate his uncle ten miles away. After I found out, I thought that I couldn't let my uncle be caught by the official army no matter what. So I simply brought a few good subordinates to join my uncle. ”
"Besiege but not attack, wait until I can't hold my breath and escape and then catch them all." Gao Yingxiang's face was a little ugly. "Huang Wazi, what should we do now?"
"We can't go any further east, let's go northeast, go to the wild boar stream, cross the wild boar stream and follow the Kuli River across the Yellow River, and go to Shanxi."
Gao Yingxiang stared at Li Zicheng tightly, pondered for a while, and gritted his teeth.
"Good! It's up to you! ”
After speaking, he arranged for the subordinates behind him, and gave Li Zicheng and the others a horse each.
Along the way, Gao Yingxiang kept asking Li Zicheng questions, trying to get more information from him.
Li Zicheng naturally has questions to answer, and Gao Yingxiang is very satisfied.
Hundreds of horsemen galloped all the way and soon came to the entrance of the boar stream.
Gao Yingxiang stopped.
Somehow, looking at the road ahead, my heart was inexplicably throbbing.
"Uncle, why don't you leave?"
Li Zicheng rode up and asked curiously.
Gao Yingxiang looked at Li Zicheng again.
His expression was not clear in the night, only a pair of eyes were bright in the moonlight.
Gao Yingxiang's heart beat wildly twice, and the uneasy premonition in his heart became stronger and stronger.
"Uncle, let's go, I'm worried that the officers and soldiers will catch up."
Gao Yingxiang nodded and continued to walk inside.
The boar stream is not large, and the road on either side can probably accommodate four horses walking side by side, with a small stream in the middle.
It's quiet inside, it's quiet all around, only the sound of gurgling water echoes in the stream.
It's a good place for an ambush.
Gao Yingxiang thought silently.
But he suddenly understood something, and cold sweat soaked his back.
It's too quiet, even in winter.
"Retreat! Exit and go! ”
Gao Yingxiang immediately stopped, turned the horse's head, and yelled at the people behind.
The peasant army behind didn't know what was going on, and when they heard the words, they stopped in place one by one at a loss.
Fortunately, this overwhelm did not last long.
The ambush appeared.
The matter has come to this, how can Gao Yingxiang not know what's going on?
"Why do you want to hurt me?" He stared at Li Zicheng, who retreated to a distance of two feet from him, and asked through gritted teeth.
"Uncle, you shouldn't rebel."
Li Zicheng was already holding the knife in his hand, and when he heard this, he shook his head with a silent expression.
The moment he decided to do so, he knew he was going to face such a scenario.
A few days ago, when he knew that King Chuang was his uncle, he felt very sad. His uncle's name and face were very familiar, but what his uncle did made him feel unfamiliar.
He connived at the adultery and plunder of his men, and wreaked havoc everywhere he went. Everywhere you go, the chickens and dogs are restless, like purgatory on earth. Even if he thinks that those rich and unkind gentry are innocent of death, what is wrong with those ordinary people? What's wrong with those people in their sixties? What's wrong with those women who were raped?
Just because you don't follow the rebellion and want to be killed?
Just because you have a little posture to be insulted?
The corpses of the old man on the side of the road, the woman who was tortured to death, and the children crying beside the corpse impacted Li Zicheng's heart.
He knew that these people could no longer be called people, no matter how loud their slogans were.
At this moment, his uncle, Gao Yingxiang, is the leader of a group of beasts and demons.
He decisively found Xu Zhi'an, explained his relationship with Gao Yingxiang, and came up with such a plan. Just to destroy this group of demons effortlessly.
Li Zicheng stopped talking nonsense, and asked his subordinates to make peace with the troops first, and he rushed forward with a horse and a knife.
Uncle, I'll die with you.
Two quarters of an hour later, the boar stream was calm again.
The battle was over, and Xu Zhi'an walked in.
Gao Yingxiang's troops either died or surrendered, giving up resistance.
"Find Li Zicheng!" Xu Zhi'an said eagerly, he was a little worried.
In fact, there is no need for him to say that dozens of soldiers under Li Zicheng are already looking for it.
"Here!" Finally, a soldier found Li Zicheng in the grass next to the stream.
But he didn't dare to move, because there was still a person lying next to him, Gao Yingxiang.
The knives in the hands of the two men stuck in each other's chests, and they all remained motionless, and they all looked dead.
Xu Zhi'an hurriedly rushed to him with someone and was stunned by the scene in front of him.
"Collect Mr. Li's body."
He couldn't bear to look at it anymore, turned around and said softly.
Tao Ziguang, who knew him the earliest, squatted down with tears in his eyes, wanting to take away the knife in his hand, but found that his hand was clenched very tightly, so he planned to pull the knife out of Gao Yingxiang's body first. But when I touched my wrist, I found that there was still temperature.
Tao Ziguang was stunned for a moment, and then carefully touched his pulse.
"General! Still alive! Tao Ziguang shouted in surprise.
"What?" Xu Zhi'an turned around abruptly and reached out to touch Li Zicheng's neck.
"Call Langzhong, damn it! This kid is alive! ”
A group of people were immediately in a hurry, and quickly called Lang Zhong, who was with the army, over.
Lang Zhong is also very surprised to see this situation, can this live?
Squatted down and carefully inspected it, and Chong Xu Zhi'an said:
"His injuries were very serious, not only in the chest, but also in the back. At this time, the coma may have caused excessive blood loss, and I am not sure that I will be able to revive him. ”
"What the fuck are you going to save someone, what are you talking crooked nonsense? Can you still pay for your life if you can't save it? Xu Zhi'an became irritable when he heard this, damn, is the glimmer of hope that has just risen to be dashed?
Lang Zhong saw that Xu Zhi'an was grumpy and didn't dare to speak again. Gently pulled out the knife inserted in Li Zicheng's chest, began to stop the bleeding, and stitched up the wound.
The front chest was pierced in half, but fortunately it didn't hurt the lungs, and it didn't bleed much, so it was disinfected with wine and sewn up. But the wound on the back was severe, and the wound was not only deep and bone-long, but also a foot long. In addition, after being soaked in stream water for a long time, the entire wound turned white, and the skin and flesh turned outward.
Lang Zhong sighed, even if the wound was stitched, it was estimated that he would not survive. But it was sewn up stitch by stitch.
After treating the wound, Lang Zhong stood up.
"General Xu, there's only so much I can do, and I'll leave the rest to God."
Xu Zhi'an nodded without speaking, and ordered someone to gently lift Li Zicheng and return to the camp.
All night, Tao Ziguang stayed by Li Zicheng's side.
After dawn, Xu Zhi'an came to their tent.
"How's it going?"
"Not good, I have a fever." Tao Ziguang shook his head gloomily.
Xu Zhi'an was also silent when he heard this, stood quietly next to Li Zicheng and watched for a while, and walked out.
He knows what it means to have a fever. His concubine accidentally got caught in the rain and had a fever a few months ago, and she almost died.
Huh?
Run a fever?
Xu Zhi'an quickly ran towards his tent.
