Chapter 976: Fleeing in a hurry

"Huh, it's up to you? The county town has been controlled by us, and it is difficult for you to fly! ”

The other scorn sneered.

"Our lord Zhang Cheng is leading a large army to kill at this moment, you all have to die!"

At this time, the spies in the yamen were still shouting, and as soon as these words came out, the officials gasped.

"What?! The enemy army has entered the city?! ”

Zhao Si sneered again and again.

He suddenly straightened up.

"Your men and horses have been exterminated by my Fengyang guard, General Qin, with his troops.

"What, it can't be" several traitors were terrified.

The spies didn't know that at this time, their master had fled in panic.

Zhao Si ordered the spy to be put into a prison and strictly guarded, and then slowly interrogated when he came back.

Then he took the officials and soldiers to prepare to go to Zhang's Mansion to see the situation.

As a result, not long after leaving the county office, he met the people of Zhangfu who rushed out, and the two sides fought together.

"Chase! Don't let any of them go! ”

Zhao Si brandished a long knife and led the officials and soldiers to chase after him.

"Kill!"

The two sides engaged in a fierce fight on the street, and blood was splattered everywhere.

There are many people in Zhangfu, and all of them are outlaws, desperately resisting.

"Run!"

Zhang Cheng turned around and yelled while fighting.

"Leave those rats alone! Do your best to get out of the gates! ”

He slashed down a servant with a single sword, and knocked down a soldier with another punch, killing people in the head.

Zhao Si was held back by the rebels, and saw that the enemy was about to rush out of the city gate.

"Damn, I can't catch up with ......"

He gritted his teeth, only hating that he didn't bring more soldiers and horses.

On the other side, Qin Zhen led the army into the county seat.

"Lord Chu! Reinforcements have arrived! ”

Li Xing let out a long roar, and the three of them met in front of the county yamen.

"General Qin! You've come at the right time! ”

Chu Ze was ecstatic and held Qin Zhen's hand tightly.

"Those traitors in Zhangfu have already gone to the West City Gate!"

"Hmph, how can you let them escape! The whole army listened to the order and set out immediately to destroy the traitors! ”

Qin Zhen ordered loudly, and thousands of iron horsemen rushed out of the city gate like a storm.

Chu Ze and Qin Zhen led the army in hot pursuit, but they were still a step slower, and watched the gang of traitors in Zhang's mansion rush out of the west gate and run farther and farther.

"Report ——!" A scout Pegasus arrived and shouted, "Lord, General! There are still two enemy forces in front of you that have converged with Zhang's Mansion! ”

"What?!" Chu Ze suddenly changed color and shouted angrily: "How many centaurs are there?" ”

The scout wiped a cold sweat and replied tremblingly: "Back to the prince, my subordinates estimate that there are 5,000 people!" ”

"Five thousand?!" Qin Zhen's face also changed when he heard this, and he muttered: "With the original number of our people, it is only in the early thirteenth thousand!" ”

Chu Ze gritted his teeth, a fierce light flashed in his eyes and said, "Dog thief!" I've been prepared! ”

He looked around and saw that the enemy army had already spread out a long snake formation, which was fierce and murderous.

"General, according to this posture, if you rush into battle, even if you can win, I am afraid that you will lose three or five thousand people!"

Qin Zhen nodded, his brows furrowed, and he fell into deep thought.

Li Xing said on the side: "Lord Wang, why don't we hold our troops first and send scouts to investigate?" ”

Zhao Si also echoed: "Yes! Only by figuring out the reality of the enemy army can we make a decision. ”

Chu Ze stared ahead, his eyes gradually becoming firm.

"That's all there is to it. Li Xing, you quickly select a group of capable scouts and go to the enemy line to probe left and right, you must be cautious! ”

"No!" Li Xing received the order, and immediately beckoned more than a dozen elite scouts and quietly walked around the enemy's flank.

"Lord Chu, I see that the enemy army is prepared, and it must have been plotting for a long time, but I am afraid that it will be difficult to fight quickly today!"

Qin Zhen wrinkled his eyebrows, obviously embarrassed.

A sneer appeared at the corner of Chu Ze's mouth: "No matter how cunning the dog thief is, he can't fight us." ”

"I want to see how many cards he Zhang Cheng still hid!"

He glanced coldly at the enemy formation, and secretly calculated.

It turned out that they had already learned from the captives that the driving force behind the Zhang Mansion was hidden behind the scenes, that the prince of the former dynasty turned out to be a Han man, and a Han man was still working for the Yuan Dynasty, which was indeed hateful.

"Zhang Cheng's guy must be trying to delay time, wait for reinforcements, or wait for an opportunity to escape."

"The opposite side has already spread out a formation, if we are in a hurry, we will lose the lives of the soldiers in vain!"

"But if you keep waiting, I'm afraid you'll miss the opportunity and give the enemy a chance to breathe."

Chu Ze weighed left and right, his brows were tightly locked, and he couldn't make up his mind for a while.

Qin Zhen saw his embarrassment and patted him on the shoulder.

"Lord Chu, so far, let's still wait for work."

"As long as you guard against it and don't let an enemy soldier go, you will be able to slowly deplete their morale!"

Chu Ze was stunned when he heard this, and then smiled with relief.

"General Qin is really high! In that case, let's have a protracted battle and see who has the last laugh! ”

He Zhengse ordered: "Pass the order, camp in place, strictly monitor, and don't move!" ”

"No!" The generals received the order and began to direct the soldiers to build a camp and strengthen the defense.

Zhao Si said with a worried face: "But Lord Wang, in case the enemy army suddenly escapes, won't we delay the fighter?" ”

"Don't worry." Chu Ze said confidently: "With General Qin in charge, those rabble can't make any waves!" ”

"We have much more cavalry than the enemy, and they die faster when they run"

Qin Zhen also smiled: "Zhao Si, don't worry about it. You can lead someone to defend the east gate, and I'll take care of the rest! ”

"Whoa!" Zhao Si nodded and bowed, and hurriedly took the order.

Just as the army began to encamp, there was a sudden commotion outside the camp.

"There is a situation!"

"The enemy is coming!"

A guard rushed into Chu Ze's tent in a panic.

"Lord Qiqi! Enemy...... The enemy has sent a letter asking for your personal reception! ”

Chu Ze and Qin Zhen glanced at each other, and they couldn't help but be stunned.

"Sending a message? Zhang Cheng, that dog thief, what does this mean? ”

Chu Ze frowned, pondered for a moment, and ordered: "Come on, send me in!" ”

"No!"

After a while, a sandalwood box was carefully placed in front of the desk.

Chu Ze opened it and saw a letter lying quietly inside.

He picked up the letter, and just after reading a few lines, his face suddenly sank.

"Bastard! It's just presumptuous! ”

He slammed the letter on the table and cursed hatefully.

Seeing this, Qin Zhen hurriedly stepped forward to inspect it, and couldn't help but change color.

"What?! He Zhang Cheng even offered to meet with you alone to "discuss the matter of conformity"?! ”

"Phew!" Chu Ze took a sip and sneered: "Is this dog thief a three-year-old child?" ”

"If he really wants to surrender, just bring people over, how can he still have a 'secret talk'?"

"This is clearly a Hongmen feast, trying to take advantage of it! Hmph, dream! (End of chapter)
