Chapter Twenty-Eight: Escorting Chuzhou
Liu Futong said earnestly: "King Xiao Ming is the only bloodline of my Great Song Dynasty, and he has no heirs. If anyone in my Red Turban Army can keep King Xiao Ming Quanquan, General Wei Zhang's ears. Liu Futong said that he would push Jinshan and pour the jade pillar to bow down, and Da Kui hurriedly reached out to help.
Liu Futong knelt on the ground and did not get up and said: "Once the city is broken, none of the soldiers with the full name of the red scarf will be spared." can only rely on General Zhang. Da Kui hurriedly said: "The prime minister hurry up, I can have today and rely on the prime minister to promote." If the prime minister has anything to say, just get up quickly. ”
Liu Futong stood up and said with a solemn face: "After the Yuan soldiers broke the city, the first thing they wanted to find was King Xiao Ming and the old man. Since this is the case, I will send someone to disguise himself as King Xiao Ming and wait until it gets dark. There were still 80,000 soldiers in the city. The old man took 60,000 soldiers out of the city. After the enemy army is lured, General Zhang can lead 20,000 capable soldiers to escort King Xiao Ming out of the city. All the way to Chuzhou to the west, the army of Wu Guogong has captured Chuzhou. ”
Liu Futong paused for a moment and continued: "Liao Yongzhong, the general under Wu Guogong, will send troops to Luzhou to meet him, once the general can protect His Majesty King Xiaoming from the siege, the old man will ......be carefree. ”
King Xiao Ming couldn't sit still any longer, got up and walked over, and hugged Liu Fudao with tears in his eyes: "How is it like this? Liu Futong held his beard and said with a generous face: "The old man will take Anfeng's soldiers to stand by and wait for help, Your Majesty, but you can rest assured! Once Wu Guogong's soldiers and horses arrive, the siege of Anfeng will be relieved." ”
King Xiao Ming cried sadly: "Prime Minister come with us." Liu Futong smiled and said: "Only in the virtual can things be done, if you go." Once the enemy discovers it, it will be closely pursued, so Your Majesty, please get up quickly. As he spoke, he picked up King Xiao Ming, looked at Zhang Dakui and said, "General Zhang, Your Majesty's safety is all up to General Zhang!" Da Kui realized it later, and was shocked when he heard this. Liu Futong and himself are also teachers and friends, now Liu Futong is going to die, how can Da Kui be willing to give up.
Da Kui was about to say something, Liu Futong stretched out his hand to stop Da Kui's words and said: "The soldiers and horses led by General Zhang are carefully selected by the old man, and General Zhang thinks that there is anything else needed, but it doesn't hurt to talk about it." Seeing that the matter had come to this, Da Kui said: "Ask General Feng Biao and General Yang Yonghuai to go with me!" Liu Futong groaned slightly: "It's okay, General Feng Biao and I will call immediately, but General Yang has suffered several injuries, and the old man is afraid that if something misses, ......." ”
Although Yang Yonghuai was seriously injured, he said with a resolute face: "Prime Minister, don't worry about the general, even if it is a sea of swords and fires, I Yang Yonghuai will dare to break through." Liu Futong nodded when he heard this: "Even so, the old man is not reluctant." Hurry up and rest, and when it gets dark, you will set out. Da Kui and Yang Yonghuai bowed their hands together and withdrew from the camp.
The table is full of a pot of meat and a dustpan full of steamed buns, and now Anfeng City has been besieged for a long time, and the grain and grass in the city have been exhausted. The people have been digging up the earth to eat, and even worse, they have survived by eating the preserved fruit of the dead.
Da Kui and Yang Yonghuai and Feng Biao haven't eaten for three days, although this meat and steamed buns are not delicacies from the mountains and seas, but they are more precious than gold at the moment. None of the three spoke, they were all gobbling up and stuffing into their mouths.
Da Kui remembered that on the way to apprentice, he also had a full meal at a kind old uncle's house. The same hunger and thirst, different life and death. Time is won by life, and now the dead bodies are piled up several feet high under the city wall outside the city, and the city wall is even more devastated. The Yuan soldiers continued to climb the city, and the red turban soldiers in the city still resisted stubbornly.
When night fell, Da Kui, Yang Yonghuai, and Feng Biao were all armored and armed, and rode at the south gate of Anfeng City, and behind them were 20,000 elite cavalry carefully selected by Prime Minister Liu Cheng. At this time, the 20,000 cavalry were in high spirits and ready to go, and their war horses were all Mongolian war horses, which came from the victories captured in the battles with reinforcements over the years.
Each cavalryman was equipped with a strong bow and quiver, a round shield and a spear, and a sheathed sword at his waist. This outfit has been
It is the limit of what the Red Turban Army can take out at present. The cavalry was divided into four columns and lined up neatly on the long street, and everyone knew that this was a bloody battle, and everyone did not have a trace of expression on their faces. Because they are the backbone of the Jiangbei Red Turban Army, because they have experienced a hundred battles.
The city was in full swing, and from time to time I saw soldiers killed on both sides come down. But Da Kui is still waiting, he is waiting for an opportunity. When the Yuan soldiers slacked off in attacking the city this time, it was the best time for him Zhang Dakui to lead the army to kill.
The light of day is coming to an end, and the sky is full of red glow. The Yuan soldiers' offensive slowed down and was slowly retreating. Thinking that it was to change another group of men and horses to continue to attack the city, which Cheng thought that at this time, the south gate of Anfeng City was gradually opened under the eyes of more than 100,000 troops outside the city, and when the Yuan soldiers were stunned, the city gate shouted and rushed out of the tide of 20,000 red turban soldiers and horses.
Da Kui rushed out of the city gate first, followed by the soldiers behind him. There was no neighing, no shouting, not even the sound of horses' hooves. When the team rushed out of the city gate, Da Kui did not delay and led the team to rush southwest. The Yuan soldiers reacted and were about to close the siege, and Da Kui shouted coldly, "Shoot.!" The 20,000 elite cavalry neatly picked up their bows and arrows and fired a volley, and the Yuan soldiers who rushed to the front fell down one after another like artemisia grass in the gale.
In the blink of an eye, these 20,000 elite cavalry rushed through the interception of 20,000 enemy soldiers and rushed into the Yuan barracks, which was the only way to go. Along the way, they encountered scattered Yuan soldier patrols, and the 20,000 black-armored cavalry passed, leaving only dozens of corpses of Yuan soldiers. Da Kui was riding on his horse, and he burst into tears when he heard the shouts of killing in Anfeng City behind him.
Da Kui led his men and horses to continue galloping south, with a mountain range in front of him. The only way to the south is the eagle's beak in the middle of this mountain range, as long as you pass the eagle's beak, you will go out of the Anfeng land. Da Kui couldn't help but step up his horse, and the men and horses behind him followed closely, and the 20,000 horses passed, bringing up the wind and dust.
As soon as he turned a corner on the mountain road, he saw a group of men and horses blocking the way in the distance, just at the mouth of the eagle's beak valley. There were about 10,000 people, but they didn't look like the Yuan army, but they weren't the Red Turban Army. Da Kui led the men and horses forward for a while, and stopped in place from the place where the people and horses blocking the road were a stone's throw away, Da Kui turned around and said: "I'll go over and take a look, if you see me raise a gun, you can rush over together." Feng Biao said: "Obey the order"
Da Kui knocked on the horse's belly, walked forward a little further, stopped again twenty feet away from the people blocking the road, and asked loudly: "Where are the soldiers and horses ahead? "Hahahaha," a loud laugh rang out in the opposite formation, and then the soldiers on the opposite side made a way. A gold-armored and blue-robed general came to the front of the battle with a spear in his hand, and Da Kui couldn't help but be shocked when he took a closer look: 'This person is heroic and powerful, and he must be a tricky person!'
