Chapter 20: Fight to Fame (1)
Lu Bei and the others rode their horses all the way, marched along the mountain road, crossed Jingui County, crossed the 10,000 troops on the open land, and came to the Qingzun City Gate.
Holding the pass token, Lu Bei shouted: "On the orders of His Royal Highness the King of Shicheng, the head of Gu Shaofeng, the general of the northern part of Yizhou Kingdom, will be sent to General Zhu!"
With just such a sentence, the soldiers defending the city were so frightened that they didn't drop their jaws, and hurried to the county office.
In fact, at this time, Zhu Baolin had just received a flying pigeon message from the spies. Three days ago, because of the letter left by Fang Ling, he sent a hundred elite scouts to reconnoitre, but found that the three thousand soldiers and horses of the King of Shicheng seemed to have disappeared out of thin air, and there was no trace for three days.
Fortunately, the spies were clever and investigated the movements of the Gu family's own soldiers, and finally discovered this earth-shattering battle.
Zhu Baolin didn't expect that Fang Ling would really dare to ambush Gu Shaofeng with only three thousand men, and when he was annoyed by his stupid move, he didn't expect to get the news that Gu Shaofeng's subordinates were coming to Gu Shaofeng's subordinates.
Zhu Baolin is also a veteran of the battlefield, he has never seen anything, he has never experienced anything, and he thinks that he can remain calm and firm under any circumstances.
However, as soon as he heard this, he couldn't help but stand up suddenly, and hurried towards the city gate, the news passed by the spies was very simple, only a few words, "The King of Shicheng ambushed Gu Shaofeng in Thorn City", in his opinion, although it was an ambush, but with three thousand men and horses against six thousand Gu family soldiers, the chances of victory were slim.
Unexpectedly, it didn't take long for such shocking news to come.
Opening the city gate and seeing the head of Gu Shaofeng sent by Lubei, Zhu Baolin was stunned like an electric shock, and he was speechless, what kind of meaning does this head represent, Zhu Baolin really knows too well, that means that the six thousand guards of the Gu family have been annihilated by the three thousand soldiers and horses of Shicheng Kingdom!
At the same time, he was also keenly aware of Lubei's intention to send the head, and before he had time to sigh, he immediately ordered, except for a small number of men and horses to garrison, nearly 10,000 horses poured out of the nest and went straight to the wilderness.
At this time, the soldiers of Shicheng Kingdom won a great victory, and the news of Gu Shaofeng's beheading was coming out of the mouths of the Gu family's deserters, spreading like fire, and the countryside, the county seat, and it spread like a shocking thunderbolt.
The commander died in battle, the army in the open area was leaderless, in the face of a fierce general like Zhu Baolin, even though the troops were equal, but under the command of disorder, it was like a plate of loose sand, and was soon beaten to the head, and the soldiers and horses of the three counties of Jingui did not send troops to support the front in order to prevent the county from being captured, but turned away the deserters.
When the two sides were in full swing, the soldiers and horses of Shichengguo swaggered along the official road, passing by Jinguicheng, and then entering the hilly area, although the deserters saw the banner of Shichengguo from a distance, they were all frightened, and quickly changed their direction and fled.
When Fang Ling and the others came to the wilderness, Zhu Baolin's army was already clearing the battlefield.
Zhu Baolin and other generals who got the news rushed to the front, and when they saw the mighty Shicheng Kingdom soldiers, they couldn't help but be surprised.
This is the first time they, and the garrison of Qingzuka Castle have seen the soldiers of Ishijo Country, these soldiers are full of energy and high spirits, although they have the fatigue after the battle, but the spirit makes people feel powerful.
