It's one thing for the soldiers to preach, but at this moment, Huang Zhang, who was in Dragon City, frowned!

After defeating the Hu troops in the previous battle, King Doye was directly frightened back as if he had encountered some tough opponent.

Not a temporary retreat, but a direct retreat! Evacuate the entire Hu army that surrounded Dragon City

This is terrible, before Huang Zhang's support was only temporarily repelled by King Duoye's attack, and now as soon as the backer king entered Dragon City, Hu Ren was directly scared away.

At this moment, the entire Dragon City is rumored that the king of the mountain has scared the Hu people away.

Many people were even more happy and began to celebrate everywhere!

But only the people of the castle guard frowned.

Because at this moment, it doesn't matter whether the Hu people retreat or not, and when Huang Zhang's reinforcements arrive, the Hu people can't retreat if they don't want to. In fact, the moment Huang Zhang arrived in Dragon City, Hu Ren's best decision was to retreat!

The biggest problem now is the Lanshan Defense Line!

Previously, Chu Liang was stationed at Ma Xikou, which was a very important node of the Lanshan defense line!

It doesn't matter if other small passes are knocked down, but the horse neighing is different.

Once this place is captured, the Hu people can go south to threaten Linbei County at any time, and they can also block the movement of the Lanshan defense line, so that the entire defense line cannot be penetrated, and Longcheng is under the threat of the Hu people at any time!

On the day they first entered Dragon City, Chu Liang and Sousuke both passed out in a coma due to serious injuries.

After Chu Liang woke up, they explained the complicated situation of the horse's neighing now.

Originally, there were 6,000 defenders at the mouth of the horse! Later, the division reissued a letter asking for help, and asked Chu Liang to lead the troops to rescue Longcheng!

Chu Liang originally wanted to send only 2,000 soldiers and horses to support Longcheng, but then Shi Zhong's second letter for help came!

This time it was said that Longcheng was in danger and was about to be unable to defend it, and Shi Zhong bluntly said in the letter that if Longcheng was lost, Subei would be included in the land of Hu people grazing horses! Among them, the rhetoric is intense, and there is a feeling that if Chu Liang does not come, Dragon City will be lost!

After careful consideration, Chu Liang decided to leave 2,000 troops in Maneishkou, and he personally led 4,000 troops to reinforce Longcheng!

But who would have thought that as soon as Chu Liang left the horse neighing with the troops on the front foot, the Hu warriors on the back foot directly surrendered the horse neighing and knocked the horse neighing down!

Only a thousand of the 2,000 troops defending the horse neighing escaped a thousand!

As soon as Chu Liang heard that the horse neighed and lost, he subconsciously knew that he had been tricked.

But it is unlikely that he will lead his troops back to recover the horse neighing!

Five thousand people, it is difficult to defend, let alone attack!

In the end, as soon as Chu Liang gritted his teeth, he took the five thousand people to Dragon City.

So there was the scene that Shi Zhong saw on the castle tower before.

"Impossible!"

After listening to Chu Liang's words, Shi Zhong immediately vetoed: "I only sent someone to ask General Chu for reinforcements once, and then I didn't send anyone, and the general's words were not sharp, just let General Chu send reinforcements as appropriate!" Such drastic words are never uttered. ”

Hearing Shi Chong's denial, fortunately, Chu Liang was also prepared, and he took out the previous two letters asking for help!

After comparison, the handwriting of the two letters is almost identical.

But when Shi Zhong saw it at first sight, he denied both letters!

"The first letter was indeed written by me, but the notes on this letter are a little different from mine!"

As he spoke, Shi Zhong found the simple order he had written on weekdays.

After the comparison of the divisions, there are indeed differences in some minor details.

And the slight differences between the two letters are almost identical.

What is certain is that these two letters were written by the same person, but they were definitely not written by Shizhong!

"You didn't doubt the authenticity of the letter at the time?" Huang Zhang asked.

In this regard, Chu Liang shook his head.

"At that time, the person who sent the letter was also dressed as a Su army, which was completely different from the Hu people, and I knew that Longcheng was besieged, and this handwriting roughly looked not much different from that of the division general, so I didn't think much about it!"

Thinking of the neighing of the horse that was lost because of his dereliction of duty, Chu Liang was immediately annoyed.

He was also careless, and he didn't even notice the difference between the handwriting!

In fact, this can't be completely blamed on Chu Liang, generally speaking, this kind of order is more bizarre, how can there be a reason to abandon an important line of defense, just to save a city that has not been completely in danger?

This kind of decision was made because of a small loss, Chu Liang did not question it, but hesitated to take how many people to rescue, doesn't this also reflect how nonsense it is for Shi Zhong to make such a decision against the sky?

Of course, as long as Huang Zhang knew these words in his heart, he would definitely not say them in person!

Shi Zhong is also a veteran in the northwest, and he has prestige and connections, Huang Zhang is new, and he must be counting on Shi Zhong to mobilize troops!

Although Shi Zhong sometimes has a dizzy brain and is prone to make wrong judgments, as long as others can use it!

"Okay, you can take care of your injuries, and I will be responsible for getting you back where you lost them!"

Hearing Huang Zhang's words, Chu Liang felt a little embarrassed!

"The city that will be lost at the end, let His Highness find it back, and the city will be ...... in his heart Taste! ”

"Why isn't it a taste?" Huang Zhang asked rhetorically!

"The last general has been with His Highness before, and he can't share His Highness's worries, and he has caused trouble to His Highness, which is really ashamed!"

Unexpectedly, Huang Zhang suddenly picked up Chu Liang's right hand, Chu Liang's right hand lost a little finger and the ring finger was cut in half, usually he was wearing iron gloves, he couldn't see it, but now on his hand, the two missing fingers were immediately exposed!

I saw Huang Zhang say earnestly: "Do you remember how these two fingers were lost? ”

Everyone present was a little speechless when they saw Huang Zhang's move.

Only Chu Liang, his eyes are red!

He was not angry, but moved, moved that Huang Zhang still remembered his two lost fingers.

Subsequently, Huang Zhang told everyone that Chu Liang was on the official road of Xiaocang Mountain, with more than 10,000 soldiers and 10,000 barbarian troops fighting head-on, defeating 10,000 regular barbarian troops in the first battle, and the two fingers of his right hand were lost in that battle!

Chu Liang has never told anyone about this matter.

After all, it's a bit of a boast.

But now that it comes out of Huang Zhang's mouth, the meaning is completely different.

First, it proves how fierce Chu Liang was at the beginning, that is 10,000 barbarians, Hu people are different from barbarians, Hu people are nomadic, most of the combat effectiveness is on horses, but the barbarians are large, in terms of normal combat power, barbarians are much more powerful than Hu people!

It is conceivable that it is difficult to fight against 10,000 barbarian troops with 10,000 Su troops and repel them!

Secondly, being able to say these things from the mouth of the king of the backer is enough to show Chu Liang's status in the heart of the king of the backer, presumably in the future, Chu Liang's road to promotion will be a smooth road!

In the end, the backer king can still remember the details of Chu Liang losing his finger two years ago, which is enough to show that the backer king is a person who values love and righteousness! If you follow such a person, you will definitely not be treated badly!

After finishing Chu Liang's deeds, Huang Zhang looked at Chu Liang.

"You lose two fingers for me, and I will take a city for you! As it should be! ”

Hearing Huang Zhang's words, Chu Liang immediately kowtowed to Huang Zhang who knelt on the ground! But he was immediately helped up by Huang Zhang!

"You and me, you don't need to make this big gift!"

"The last general will follow His Highness, and he will never regret his death!"

Seeing Chu Liang's appearance, Huang Zhang couldn't help but smile!

Chu Liang also said something similar to himself when he was in Sunan, but in just two years, it seems that some things are indeed easy to forget!

If Chu Liang still remembered what he said at the beginning, he would not have expressed his loyalty to himself again.

It can only be said that time will forget a lot of things!

But it's normal, after all, Chu Liang hasn't been with him for a long time, at most, he has followed him in a few battles, if he wants to be loyal, he definitely can't compare with Niu Zhantian, Liu Han and others.

Those people are the ones who really dare to do something to the emperor because of their own words!

But it doesn't matter, loyalty is a thing that is gradually deepened in the encounter and acquaintance step by step.

When Niu Zhantian was just loyal to himself, he thought about rebellion when facing a mere Tianjiabao! And then? He would rather cut off an arm than retreat half a step, this is the best testimony of his faithfulness!

This is the human heart, if you can't see through these people's hearts, you will suffer a big loss!

This is the only truth that Huang Zhang has gradually understood by his own exploration since he was in the other world!

People's hearts are unpredictable, people's hearts are untestable, mortals do things, and they don't care about their deeds!
