Su Jia successfully forced out the poisonous blood for Han Zheng, and although the blood flow at the wound gradually slowed down, it was still urgent to bandage the wound.

"Quick, bandage General Han's wounds-" Su Jia shouted anxiously, but he spent a lot of effort to rescue Han Zheng, sweat broke out on his forehead, and the whole person fell backwards unconsciously.

The military doctor on the side reacted immediately when he heard it, Xiao Tian threw away the poisoned arrow, and successfully bandaged General Han Zheng's wound with several military doctors, and Han Zheng was finally out of danger......

After a moment, Han Zheng was finally able to speak consciously, although the toxicity was discharged, but because the arrow wound was too severe, it had dragged the internal organs, and Han Zheng still spoke slightly, let alone sat up from the bed.

"You ......" Han Zheng seemed to want to say something, and the corners of his mouth were also extremely hard.

"General-" The cronies and soldiers on the side of "General ......" saw Han Zheng open his mouth and hurriedly stepped forward to greet him.

"Hurry up...... Tell me quickly......" Han Zheng said with difficulty, "the battle ahead...... How's the war going......"

An adjutant general lowered his head slightly, said with a little disappointment: "General, because you were wounded by an arrow, you ...... Therefore, the besieging troops are temporarily without a commander...... As a result, the enemy defenders Shanzhu Walu and Chen Wei sent troops to defend the pass, but our army could not attack it, and as a result, it suffered heavy losses, and now its morale is low, and it is impossible to launch a second attack......"

When Han Zheng heard this, he endured the pain in his waist, gritted his teeth and said, "This won't work...... I need to go back to the front lines and take the lead...... Siege Force ......"

When the soldiers on the side heard this, they immediately dissuaded: "Don't you, general! Now that you are seriously injured and have difficulty sitting up and talking, how can you continue to sit on the front line?"

"But not in battle...... The army could not continue to attack the city with no morale, wouldn't it...... Isn't it a failure?" Han Zheng still insisted on retorting.

"I don't care if we take Tengzhou, it's a ...... for a while," another general said on the side, "The marshal and General Xu Da didn't give us a death order, but just let us suppress the enemy army in Tengzhou." It's best to take the city...... Even if you can't take it, when General Xu Da's main force reinforcements arrive, it's not too late to take the city, General Xu Da won't blame the general for your ......."

"Yes, General, now you are seriously wounded. Let's give up the siege for the time being......" The other soldiers followed.

"Yes, the casualties in the army are not light, and if you continue to insist on the end of the strong crossbow...... there are more and more voices in the battalion to "give up".

"Bastard-ah......" Suddenly, Han Zheng's angry roar frightened the soldiers around him, but he couldn't afford to be seriously injured, and after shouting, he lay down in pain.

"General ......" and "General ......" looked at Han Zheng's injured and excited appearance, and the soldiers next to him were all nervous again. Du Chao Han Zheng surrounded him.

Han Zheng calmed down for a while, but the anger and disappointment in his heart did not stop, and he saw Han Zheng say unwillingly: "Wait...... All of them were brave men under Han's account, and accompanied the marshal to pacify all kinds of warlords and shock the ...... Now, because of the solidity of the small city and the danger of the main general being seriously injured, he is afraid of the trip...... At this time, no one dared to take on the responsibility of such a heavy soldier for Han, you ...... You ......" Han Zheng seriously injured himself and was speechless with some anger.

"General. You better rest......" Although the soldiers beside him were ashamed of themselves, they still cared about General Han Zheng's injuries. So he continued to comfort kindly, "We have fought with the general several times, and we all know the courage of the general's champion, and we are also sworn to the death...... But we are more concerned about General Han's injuries than about attacking the city. Please also ask the general to calm down and recuperate from his wounds, if the general's ambition is still there. When the general is healed from his injuries, we will advance as pioneers and never fail to live up to the general's hopes!"

"Yes......" "Yes......" The other generals also responded with the voice.

"Han is seriously injured now, what day will it be until the injury is healed...... What Han needs is not your concern. But...... It's about whether you can have the talent to take on the responsibility......" Han Zheng finally calmed down a little anxiety in his heart, but he still couldn't hate himself, and then he looked at Xiao Tian and Su Jia, who had not spoken for a long time on the other side, so he turned to ask, "Who are you, just now, but the two of you...... Save Han?"

As a woman, Su Jia was not easy to talk to on the side, Xiao Tian saw it, stood in front of Su Jia, and spoke: "General Hui, subordinate Xiao Tian is the infantry captain of the vanguard army under General Chang Yuchun." This time the division of troops to recruit Tengzhou, the subordinates and others followed the five hundred soldiers and ...... with General Han."

Han Zheng saw that under Xiao Tian's handsome face, a slender knife mark reflected arrogance and unyielding, which was the image of a hero and a general. Han Zheng smiled slightly in pain, and then said on a whim: "General Chang's subordinates...... The general of the vanguard army, Han had heard a little about it before...... The five tiger generals of the vanguard army, Tang Zhan, Zhao Zichuan, Nangong Jun, Murong Fei, and Qin Yu, all rode vigorously and crisscrossed the battlefield, but they had never heard of General Xiao's merits...... However, the general has an extraordinary spirit, and he must have the talent of a hero...... Now that you are saving Han's life, you must be gracious...... Han decided to entrust the position of the general to General Xiao Tian for the time being, and wished that General Xiao Tian could ...... Able to take on my duties and lead the troops to continue the siege battle, before the arrival of General Xu Da...... Take the ...... of Tengzhou"

As soon as these words came out, all the soldiers present were surprised, and even Su Jia himself beside him couldn't believe it. Not to mention Xiao Tian, although he also had a strategy of commanding troops in the vanguard barracks, Xiao Tian was a little flattered to take on such a heavy responsibility at one time.

Sure enough, before Xiao Tian could speak, Han Zheng's cronies and soldiers had a different opinion: "General Han, please think twice - General Xiao Tian is a subordinate of General Chang, and now he has been divided into our army, it must be because the war is not reused...... How can such a person be our commander?"

"Yes, General Han, please think twice......" "General Han can't make a hasty decision...... "Now the siege battle can't be attacked for a long time, and the enemy defenders are Shanzhu Waru and Chen Wei, who are famous for the imperial city, how can they hand over the heavy responsibility to a hairy boy who has no merit......" The people below began to chirp and retort constantly, and no one present supported Han Zheng, and they did not agree with Xiao Tian to take over this important task.

It was not unreasonable for everyone to say this, and Xiao Tian and Su Jia also understood in their hearts that there was no reason to hand over the unfinished heavy task, which was almost considered a failure, to a young man who had no combat achievements...... But at the same time, there was another voice in Xiao Tian's heart shouting - this is a God-given opportunity, such a heavy task must not be accomplished by me!

Everyone was talking about right and wrong, and Han Zheng also knew that his decision was too hasty. But Han Zheng firmly believes that he will not do wrong. And cut the railroad categorically: "You and others are all in Gou'an, and they dare not lead the troops to the heavy task...... Now that there is no one else, General Ben has handed over this post to General Chang's subordinates, so what is the difference between you? If there is really any objection, if you have the ability, you will stand up and take this important task for General Xiao and raise troops to continue the siege of the city. Otherwise...... Otherwise, don't continue to make funny talk here......" Han Zheng wanted to be angry, but because of his serious physical injuries, he couldn't get angry.

As soon as Han Zheng said this, the other soldiers present were speechless......

Xiao Tian was silent on the side for a long time, and finally he decided...... "General Han-" Xiao Tian stepped forward and said in righteous words, "My subordinates are willing to take over this important task and lead my troops to take the important land of Tengzhou before General Xu Da arrives!"

"Good. General Xiao is a real man, a true hero...... Xiao Tian's firmness and determination finally made Han Zheng's heart smooth, he firmly believed that the person he chose would not live up to his expectations, "Han was seriously injured, and now General Xiao is the main general, and all of Han's subordinates." can be sent by General Xiao...... As long as Tengzhou can be won, Han will do his best to help...... cough cough...... "The excited Han Zheng almost forgot that he was injured. I couldn't help but cough a few times.

"Please rest assured General Han, the last general will complete the task!" Xiao Tian said more and more imposingly.

"Ah Tian......" Su Jia couldn't help blushing and turning her head when she saw Xiao Tian's rare determination and courage.

But Han Zheng agreed, but his cronies did not. Although he didn't dare to disobey Han Zheng's intentions on the surface, he secretly looked down on Xiao Tian, a fledgling young boy. Since following General Han Zheng to conquer Tengzhou, Xiao Tian has been with Su Jia and his cronies. Staying in the rear camp all day to deal with the wounded, and not on the battlefield for a long time, how can such a person lead the army to fight?

"Hmph, be arrogant, leave it to him. The army will ...... suffer" "Why did General Han hand over this important task to him, it was extremely hasty......" "No matter what General Han said, I won't obey any order this kid gives anyway...... Let me listen to the words of the kid, why ......" The people below are still talking, even if Han Zheng himself is here, they are bold and do not shy away from it.

Han Zheng heard some gossip and just wanted to get angry, but was stopped by Xiao Tian, who was also observing the scene.

Xiao Tian settled down and said an even more amazing sentence: "General Han, the last general took over the post of General Han, but the army refused to accept it...... Therefore, the last general thought to himself, for this expedition, the last general only needs to lead the vanguard army camp with five hundred soldiers, and there is no need for General Han's subordinates to obey the order of the last general——"

As soon as these words came out, the people present couldn't believe it, even Han Zheng. "You say...... What?" Han Zheng's eyes widened and he looked at Xiao Tian with incredible eyes.

"Ah Tian, are you crazy......" Su Jia also reminded with worried and reproachful eyes.

"What? 500 people ......" "I heard you right, our army's main force can't take Tengzhou, how can 500 people ......" "The enemy defenders are Shanzhu Walu and Chen Wei, who are famous for defending the city, and the famous generals can't take a solution, just rely on this kid who has no combat merits, and only wait for 500 men and horses......" "Is there a mistake? This cowhide is too blowing to the sky......" The people below couldn't help but laugh when they heard this.

Han Zheng looked at Xiao Tian with surprised eyes, but there was a kind of hope implied - maybe Xiao Tian could really live up to expectations and complete this task. But Han Zheng was still not at ease, so he continued to ask: "General Xiao, do you have to think about it...... The enemy garrison has 5,000 at least, and the defenders are very good at defending the enemy's city, and our main force has failed to take it by storming, and I am afraid that it will only rely on 500 men and horses...... I'm afraid it's not General Xiao who is joking......"

"There is no joke in the army!" Xiao Tian said righteously, and his face did not change, and continued, "Five hundred men and horses are enough, and Tengzhou will be taken for General Han within two days!"

Xiao Tian's flower language is so firm, Han Zheng has nothing to say, but it is not realistic to say that he can only take the hard city with five hundred people, and Han Zheng is still uneasy for a long time.

The cronies and generals on the side laughed at Xiao Tian, but they also looked "concerned" in front of Han Zheng and asked, "General Xiao really doesn't need us?" If it is General Han's order, I will not obey General Xiao's command, I am afraid that ...... General Xiao has few soldiers, in case something goes wrong......"

"I, Xiao Tian, will do what I say, and I will never break my word!" Xiao Tian's words became firmer and firmer, and he accepted Han Zheng's military affairs, so he walked out of the back camp without looking back.

Su Jia saw it and followed behind and left the camp.

"This ......" The general who had just spoken to looked a little embarrassed, but thinking of Xiao Tian's tone of "no one in his eyes", he had always been unwilling, so he muttered secretly, "Hmph, arrogant...... 500 people and horses, they couldn't get a piece of important land for breaking the sky, and they bragged about winning the entire Tengzhou...... When the time comes, you won't be able to complete the task, and I'll see how you, a kid who doesn't know the height of the sky, can make a difference......"

Han Zheng didn't say a word, he looked at Xiao Tian's departing back in surprise, and didn't wake up for a long time......

Late at night, Zhu Yuanzhang ...... camp

"Marshal, there is news from General Han Zheng's side, saying that although General Han is seriously injured, his life is not in danger...... However, he was temporarily unable to take charge of military affairs, and replied to the letter and made a special apology speech...... "Chang Yuchun is still the first to report the information from the front line to Zhu Yuanzhang one by one.

Zhu Yuanzhang listened, frowned, nodded slightly, and said: "Okay, as long as General Han's injury is okay, everything is fine, Tengzhou can't take it, and it's not a bad idea to recharge your energy temporarily...... By the way, General Han has no military affairs, is there a replacement candidate in that battalion?" Zhu Yuanzhang asked with concern again.

"Yes-" Chang Yuchun's eyes changed slightly, and he continued, "I just got the news that the general who took over General Han's position is General Xiao Tianxiao, the infantry captain of the pioneer battalion under the former general......

"Sure enough, it's General Chang and your subordinates......" Zhu Yuanzhang seemed to have guessed it early in the morning, and responded calmly.

"What's more, General Xiao Tian took office, or General Han Zheng personally appointed him-" Chang Yuchun added.

"Oh?" Zhu Yuanzhang listened, and his tone changed slightly, "Could it be that there is something outstanding about General Xiao that made General Han leave aside his cronies and subordinates and give them to this subordinate of General Chang, who has never dealt with him?"

"This general doesn't know ......" Chang Yuchun bowed his head in response, and then remembered an important matter, so he continued to mention, "By the way, the news also said that General Xiao Tian swore in front of all the soldiers that he would take the important land of Tengzhou within two days with only five hundred soldiers from his entourage and cronies—"

"What are you talking about?" As soon as these words came out, even Zhu Yuanzhang, who had seen the world, was taken aback, "Five hundred soldiers......? Tengzhou is guarded by thousands of Mengyuan elite soldiers, and the guards are Shanzhu Walu and Chen Wei, who are good at defending the city against the enemy, with only 500 people...... Or is it that this Xiao Tianzhen has any talent that can only be ......"

Zhu Yuanzhang paced in place a few times, and then asked Chang Yuchun: "General Chang, Xiao Tian has been an infantry captain under your pioneer camp before, can he make meritorious contributions?"

"It seems that there has never been, and even if there is, it is far less than Tang Zhan and Lu Jing......" Chang Yuchun recalled and said, "Hiss...... However, there were no military achievements, but the defeat was fought - before the conquest of Xuzhou Yanzhi Jitai Bazaduo, the vanguard army met the main force of Yanji Jitai in the narrow road of Qiling Pass, and the infantry led by General Xiao Tian also fought a defeat at the Gorge Pass...... Of course, that defeat was purely due to the disparity in strength between the two sides, and it was a great luck that the whole army was not annihilated, at least General Xiao Tian was not only not questioned afterwards, but also was rewarded for his merits, saying that it was to buy valuable time for the main force of reinforcements to arrive......"

"I see, people who don't have significant combat achievements are actually confident that they can win the hard-headed city with 500 people, it's interesting...... It seems that not only Tang Zhan and Lu Jing, but all the soldiers in the vanguard camp are interesting......" Zhu Yuanzhang closed his eyes from time to time and nodded, his tone pondering.

Chang Yuchun continued to ask: "General Xiao Tian's oath is a bit exaggerated, which inevitably makes people not feel at ease...... Anyway, the land of Tengzhou is not in a hurry, it is better to take back General Xiao Tian's order, and wait for General Xu Da's reinforcements to arrive before raising troops to attack the city, which seems to be more secure......"

However, Zhu Yuanzhang's expression changed, and he immediately stopped: "No, just do what General Xiao Tian said, let him do it...... I want to see if he really has the ability to accomplish a mission that ordinary people can't accomplish......"

It seems that in addition to Tang Zhan and Lu Jing, there is another person under the vanguard army who has aroused Zhu Yuanzhang's interest...... (To be continued.) )
