Chapter 245: Capture Tongguan
"Amitabha Buddha ~ good, good, good. Are the benefactors passers-by?"
Guo Wei said: "Yes, our family traveled until it was late and wanted to spend the night, my little son was not in good health and fainted, I don't know that it is inconvenient for the master." ”
The abbot took a closer look, and the person who fainted turned out to be a monk, and he was dressed in a cloud brocade robe, and saw that he breathed and breathed out extraordinary martial arts, and his age was only in his teens and less than twenty.
"Eh~ This shouldn't be a monk of Zongxin. The old abbot said: "Don't look at our remote location, in fact, there are several small villages at the foot of the mountain, and there is a small town not far away." Although Lao Na is not very well-informed, he should not look away, and in the whole world, there are only two girls supporting the monk who is still wearing a cloud brocade robe, and Master Zongxin. ”
Guo Wei really didn't expect that although this old monk was old, his eyesight was really good.
The old monk looked at Guo Wei again, and thought about it carefully: "Then this is the generalissimo of the world's soldiers and horses, Guo Wei, Lord Guo, Lao Na knows that you don't want to reveal your identity, but there is nothing to hide in the remote area." Even if Lao Na wants to report to the official, he has to walk a few days on the mountain road, and by the time this old bone finds the yamen, it is estimated that you will have already left this neighborhood. ”
"The master's insight, it is Guo Wei below. This person next to me is indeed Master Zongxin, just because Liu Chengyou wanted to take my life, Master Zongxin cast a spell to let our group fly away from the seal, and the mana was exhausted here, so we fainted. ”
The old monk thought for a long time, and then asked, "Do you say it again, is there a problem with my ears because of my old age?"
"Exactly. ”
"Hey~ The master is unpredictable, I can't imagine that Master Zongxin can still fly ......" The old monk said: "Since this is the case, don't ask too much." A few people were invited, and the old man immediately instructed his disciples to prepare the best wings. ”
The old monk was very polite, because Zongxin and Guo Wei are both famous heroes and heroes of the contemporary era, and Zongxin is a Buddhist monk, that is, he must take care of his fellow monks.
There were no good things in the temple, so they ate some food and drank some hot tea, and the group rested in their own rooms. Buddhism Pure Land, Dugu Xingyue and the demon didn't do anything, mainly because Zongxin was unconscious, otherwise they didn't care if this was a temple or not.
The group lived in the temple, Guo Wei gave the abbot some silver taels in advance, after all, this temple is not big, and the monks are not easy, so many people eat and drink here for nothing, even if the vast Buddhism Guo Wei himself can't bear it.
Zong Xin was in a coma for two days and two nights, because he consumed too much true qi, Zong Xin's body seemed to be hollowed out, and his whole body was so weak that it was difficult to even raise his hands. Not to mention Zong Xin, even Guo Wei didn't dare to guarantee that he could hold on until dusk, Zong Xin's potential was bottomless, and he definitely had the quality of being a top master.
The reason why Guo Wei did not leave in a hurry was because he himself was injured. Cao Yun's Bodhi magic skills are not weak, because it is the last palm 'Rulai to destroy the world' does have the power of destroying the world and rebuilding, at that time Guo Wei felt that the meridians of the whole body were about to split, if it wasn't for his own internal strength far superior to Cao Yun, I was afraid that the palm might not be able to hold it down.
After Zongxin woke up, he was surrounded by a full of people, and they were all waiting for Zongxin to wake up. Only Zongxin can let them escape safely to Tongguan.
According to the old abbot, all the towns have already sent Zongxin and Guo Wei's portraits, as long as they see these two people, regardless of life or death, as long as they report the letter, they can be rewarded.

Tongguan
That night, the gate of Tongguan suddenly opened, and Li Shouzhen and Zhao Siwan led their troops to break through and vowed to dismantle these fortresses. If a fortress is built outside the city gate, it will be extremely advantageous for both attack and defense. In order to prevent this from happening, Li Shouzhen had to forcibly dismantle these forts.
What's more, Li Shouzhen and his entourage had nothing to do in Tongguan, and the soldiers watched these forts being built day by day, and the pressure in their hearts was getting bigger and bigger. He also took this opportunity to let the soldiers vent, but Li Shouzhen knew that Guo Wei would definitely send a large army to protect these forts, especially before they were about to be completed, and more people must be dispatched.
Although there was a large army guarding it, Li Shouzhen couldn't help but go. Moreover, there are still more than 10,000 horses in Tongguan, and it is not inevitable to defeat Guo Wei's 20,000 horses head-on. If you just tear down the fortress and escape, you won't lose much.
Li Shouzhen and Zhao Siwan were already on the verge of collapse, and they knew they didn't take advantage of the opportunity. Because of these fortresses, when Guo Wei left Tongguan to attack Kaifeng, Li Shouzhen led his troops to rush out of Tongguan and forcibly folded the baby, but encountered Chai Rong's ambush, if it wasn't for Zhao Sijuan leading the troops to save, Li Shouzhen would have died in Chai Rong's hands.
But that was Li Shouzhen and Zhao Siwan's best chance. But the news in Tongguan was closed, and they later learned that Guo Wei was not outside Tongguan, but ran to attack Kaifeng. By the time they gathered their men and horses to prepare to attack again, Guo Wei had already returned to Tongguan with his troops.
When Li Shouzhen and Zhao Siwan discussed, they found that Zongxin had said the same thing to them, Yelude would definitely move his army south after spring ploughing, and it would be a good time to leave Tongguan. Li Shouzhen actually calculated the time, but he didn't expect Yelu Deguang to wave his army south before spring ploughing, and the whole battle started early and ended early, which made Li Shouzhen and Zhao Siwan miss the opportunity, otherwise they would not have been trapped in Tongguan.
Li Shouzhen, who missed the opportunity, can only stick to Tongguan and will never go out of the city to surrender. Temporarily confronted with the two more soldiers and horses of Kuowei, Fengxiang Wang Jingchong was providing grain and grass to Tongguan together, and their lives were temporarily unhindered, but Li Shouzhen didn't know how long he could last.
As the fortress outside the city became larger and larger, the people in the city became more and more worried. They had to destroy these forts to stabilize the morale of the army. If the army is unsettled, there is a possibility that a surrenderer may appear at any time.
Li Shouzhen and Zhao Sijuan are both first-class masters, and they always run at the front when they lead the troops out of Tongguan. One with a sword, the other with a spear, and two of them gathered 5,000 elite soldiers, of which 2,000 resisted the enemy, and the other 3,000 were responsible for completely demolishing the fortress outside the city.
'Naru~~'
A trumpet sounded in the tent, and immediately after the men and horses that had been laid in ambush rushed out. This is also in Li Shouzhen's expectations, and this is not the first time, Guo Wei must have buried heavy troops, and he only needs to forcibly demolish the fortress and return to Tongguan immediately, although there will be some casualties on the way, but as long as the fortress is destroyed, Tongguan can last a few more months.
Chai Rong led the troops, and only a small part rushed towards Li Shouzhen and his party, and the large army directly launched a siege. Li Shouzhen didn't find out at first, but felt that there were not many soldiers and horses deployed this time, and there was no pressure.
Chai Rong rushed forward under pressure, and went directly to the city to set up a ladder for the soldiers to climb up the city tower. Soon a group of soldiers went up to the battlement. Li Shouzhen acted in secret, so she deliberately kept everyone quiet. As a result, it was so quiet that no one even noticed that Chai Rong's men and horses had attacked the Tongguan battlement.
When Li Shouzhen reacted, it was too late, Chai Rong's men and horses had already broken through the gate of Tongguan, and a large number of people and horses directly entered Tongguan. The gate of Tongguan was opened, and Chai Rong's soldiers and horses rushed into Tongguan, first gathered all the prisoners, and then led a group of men and horses out of the city to meet Li Shouzhen and Zhao Sijuan.
Originally, the difference in strength was not too big, and Li Shouzhen was the defender of the city, but he never imagined that he would be defeated so casually, and the casualties on both sides were not large, because Li Shouzhen's art of war was slightly inferior, so he was directly captured by Chai Rong Tongguan.
Li Shouzhen and Zhao Sijuan originally thought that they had the chance to win, but they suddenly lost Tongguan, and there were only so many people left around them, there was really no way to go to heaven and no way to enter the ground.
Chai Rong shouted: "Don't kill those who descend?"
Immediately afterwards, the large army also shouted: "Those who descend will not be killed." ”
After a few years, the soldiers on Li Shouzhen's side almost gave up resistance, and only a few people closest to Li Shouzhen escorted Li Shouzhen to break through.
Suddenly, a huge body appeared in the crowd, originally Li Shouzhen and Zhao Sijuan guarded for a long time, and it seemed that they could escape smoothly, but this huge body was hidden among the soldiers and launched a surprise attack on the two, and they were taken by surprise, Li Shouzhen and Zhao Sihuan were defenseless, and they were both beaten to the horse.
After receiving this heavy blow, neither of them even saw who made the shot. They just didn't see it, but they knew very well in their hearts that the martial arts of a person with this level were so high that there was only one in the world, and that was Lei Hong.
Li Shouzhen shouted loudly: "Big brother, since you are here, let's show up." ”
Lei Hong suddenly walked out of the army, still dressed in a rich and noble foreign suit, with two golden balls in his hands. The blow just now had already made Li Shouzhen and Zhao Siwan lose the idea of escaping, and the two of Lei Hong present would definitely die. It's just that Li Shouzhen couldn't have imagined that it was not Guo Wei who killed him in the end, but the sworn eldest brother Lei Hong.
"Big brother, little brother has never counted on you. But you can't make it worse. Li Shouzhen gritted his teeth and said: "The little brother treated you well in the past, why did you sneak attack at this time?"
Lei Hong said: "I know in my heart why I want to kill you, and I will take over all your power." By the way, I have also taken over the remaining tens of thousands of troops of Zhao Siwan. Now I will kill you just to kill your mouth, because what someone says must become true, saying that you died in the same year, month, and day, and none of you can escape today. ”
Li Shouzhen and Zhao Siwan immediately understood that the reason why Lei Hong wanted to kill him was completely to kill him. Lei Hong couldn't let these two people who knew Master Zongxin's secret live, and if these two people announced to everyone that Zongxin was Lei Hong's third son, Lei Tianyong, it would definitely bring a lot of trouble to Zongxin. In order to prevent this from happening, they must die.
Originally, Zhao Siwan didn't know about this matter, but after meeting Li Shouzhen, Li Shouzhen told him about it. After knowing this, Zhao Siwan knew that the most unprovoked person today was Zong Xin, who was not only a contemporary monk, but also the most beloved son of Lei Hong, the son of Ye Tianzi, and the person who was very likely to inherit the throne of King Kaiyu in the future.
