Chapter 16

"Bang!" "Bang!" Two sounds, the two thick cables connecting the suspension bridge were cut off by Wei Yan's hand and the roots were cut off. Since then, the idea of ​​the guards of the north gate of Lujiang City to put away the suspension bridge was completely dispelled.

Since the general fell into the hands of the enemy, the soldiers guarding the city of Jiangdong Army who were afraid of being attacked by rats all looked at each other, not knowing what to do.

"Don't worry about me, hurry..." After a while, Sun Ben, who was dizzy after being thrown, seemed to understand what was happening in front of him. The dozens of soldiers who "loyal guards" were simply disguised by the enemy. Because the sky was too dark and they were eager to escape, they had no chance to carefully distinguish the authenticity. As a result... they were easily deceived by the other party!

"Damn! If you don't want to die, stop me!" Wei Yan kicked Sun Ben's stomach hard and kicked him back. "The army led by General Zhang Fei of my family is about to arrive. If you don't surrender again, you will have to die in an attempt to resist!"

Then, Wei Yan whispered to a soldier beside him: "Hurry, send a signal!"

"Yes, general!" The soldier quickly took out a hidden small crossbow, and then pulled out a special crossbow arrow from the cloth bag on his side. The arrow was lifted and the string was pulled open!

"Swoosh!" The crossbow arrow soared into the sky with an extremely sharp whistling sound, and the sound came from afar 3 or 4 miles away.

"General, the signal is here! General Wei has successfully opened the city gate!" Zhao Yunyu said to me with joy.

"Yeah!" My eyes flashed slightly, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of my mouth, and then he said in a deep voice: "Zilong, send an order! Go forward at full speed and attack Lujiang City!"

"Yes, general!" Zhao Yun gathered his qi in Dantian and shouted loudly: "The Fengqi Camp obeys the order! Move at full speed and attack Lujiang!"

The distance of 5,600 steps was just a blink of an eye for the cavalry who was moving at full speed. As the cavalry of the brigade entered the city, the soldiers guarding the city who were already ready to move had to be honest. Seeing that I had already entered the city, Wei Yan left two and three guards Sun Ben while personally leading dozens of other infantry to rush up to the city tower and controlled the anxious defenders.

"Wen Chang, I will leave the city gate to you. Yuan Jian and Zi Feng will arrive later!" I looked up and shouted loudly to Wei Yan on the city tower.

"Don't worry, General, leave it to me!" Wei Yan replied with confidence.

"Okay!" Then I turned to Zhao Yun and said, "Zilong, let's go to the city guarding the palace. If we can capture and kill Zhu Zhi, then the matter here can be settled!"

……………………

In the Lujiang City Prefecture Council Hall, Zhu Zhizheng paced back and forth with concern. Since Sun Ben led his army out of the city, Zhu Zhi felt very unreliable, and this feeling of uneasiness became stronger and stronger. Compared with Sun Ben, who was young and vigorous, and even a little ignorant of "high and thick", Zhu Zhi was much more calm in his behavior. In the past, when he was in Sun Jian and Yuan Shu (after Sun Jian died in Jingzhou in battle, Zhu Zhi and other old ministers had guarded the orphans of Sun's family and temporarily surrendered to Yuan Shu) in the army, Zhu Zhi had heard of the deeds of Liu Bei's three brothers, and knew that they were not an incompetent person, and could even be said to be a hero in the world. Even Sun Jian, the first lord of Jiangdong who was extremely brave, once admired Liu Bei's talents, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei's bravery.

How can such an opponent be taken lightly? But Sun Ben insisted on leaving the city to pursue him. Zhu Zhi, who was a subordinate, had to let him go when he was in a desperate situation. Now he can only hope that Sun Ben can be more cautious!

"Oh~!" Zhu Zhi stopped, looked at the night sky outside the hall, and sighed sadly.

"Swoosh~!" Suddenly, an extremely sharp whistle faintly entered the conference hall.

The arrow was heard??!!! Zhu Zhi was stunned and immediately reacted.

"How could there be a sound arrow? Who shot it?" Zhu Zhi pondered for a moment, then strode out of the conference hall, finding a guard soldier in the mansion and asked, "Where did the sharp whistle sound just now come from?"

"Sir Qibing, it seems to be coming from the city gate on the south side!" the soldier replied quickly.

Not good! Not good! Zhu Zhi felt deeply that the situation was not good and immediately shouted loudly: "Come on, go to the military camp in the city to recruit troops and follow me to the north city gate!"

"Prepare the horse!"

…………

On the long street in the north and south direction of Lujiang City, Zhu Zhi led the only 600 infantry remaining in the military camp in the city to hurry to the city gate to the north. Not long after, he met the brigade of galloping cavalry head-on.

Cavalry?!!! Zhu Zhi's face turned pale immediately. Needless to say, a cavalry of this size is definitely not something that the Jiangdong Army can own, so... it can only be the enemy! Unexpectedly, the city gate has been broken! Who is it? He has such ability, and he almost knows it, and he easily attacks the city without realizing it?

"Who dares to offend me Lujiang? Report your name!" Zhu Zhi held back the horror in his heart and shouted in a deep voice.

"Yan man Zhang Yide is it!" The leader of the cavalry opposite made a loud shout that could cause the land to collapse and the earth to break.

Zhang Yide, a man from Yan?!!! Zhang Fei!!! Zhu Zhi couldn't help but tremble slightly when he heard this name. It turned out to be the legendary general who could fight with Lu Bu, the best martial arts general in the world for hundreds of rounds without a chance of winning or losing; he could defeat Zhou Tai, the most powerful general in the Jiangdong Army, and was seriously injured, and was almost disabled, a peerless general - Zhang Fei! Zhang Yide!

Sun Ben is over! Lujiang is over! Zhu Zhi no longer has any illusions in his heart, and his face is like earth in an instant. With Sun Ben's martial arts and experience of fighting, he will definitely be immune to encountering such a long-time general as Zhang Fei. Moreover, Zhang Fei's ability to lead the army in Lujiang City is a living proof of his life. Losing the defense of the city, the less than 2,000 defenders in Lujiang City can simply resist the enemy's attack, but the cavalry in front of him is unable to defeat him.

Although he knew he was defeated, Zhu Zhi did not intend to give up resistance. In a flash, Zhu Zhi made a decision, then raised the long sword in his hand and ordered loudly without looking back: "Zhang Sima, quickly lead the army to the south gate, withdraw back to Jiangdong by water, and report to the lord about Lujiang!"

"Sir, you should retreat. I am willing to lead my brothers to fight to the death to resist the enemy!" The Sima of the Jiangdong Army surnamed Zhang shouted earnestly.

"Go away quickly, this is an order! Do you dare to disobey the order?" Zhu Zhi's voice turned cold and he scolded sternly.

"Hmph! There is no need to leave! Wind Cavalry Camp, assault!" The loud shout from the opposite side rang again.

"Go away!" Zhu Zhi shouted almost as if he was hoarse.

"Sir... the last general... let's go first!" Sima, a soldier from the surname Zhang, gritted his teeth and called on his soldiers to run wildly towards the south gate.

"Kill!" Zhu Zhi waved the long sword in his hand and rode his horse to meet the cavalry opposite...

"Don!" Zhu Zhi tried his best to knock a sword from an enemy rider away, waiting to take the opportunity to defeat the opponent with one sword. Suddenly, a spear with a snake-shaped head arrived in time and held Zhu Zhi's long sword.

"You dare to hurt my sergeant, your opponent is me!"

……………………………………………………………….

"You dare to hurt my soldiers, your opponent is me!" Seeing that a wind cavalry was about to be buried in the hands of an enemy general, I quickly rushed forward and caught the nearly killing knife for him, and then shouted angrily.

"Kill!" In conjunction with the fierce rush of the black horse, the Snake Spear in my hand was wrapped in a powerful spiral air wave, and the enemy generals on the opposite side were stabbed like lightning.

"Bon!" The knife spear collided, and with a harsh sound of gold and iron, the opponent's long knife body was directly cracked, instantly turning into countless pieces. "Ping Ping Pong" fell all over the ground.

Oh no, the action is too heavy! With anger, I tried my best, but I never thought that the opponent's strength was not good, and this result actually occurred!

"Drink!" I shouted muffled and moved the direction of the snake spear a little.

"Puff!" The sharp spear tip of the snake spear avoided the other party's body, but stabbed his right arm. Then he was forced to lift off the horse's back and hung straight on the snake spear.

I drooped the snake spear and threw the man to the ground. Then I rode my horse forward, controlled the horse with my feet, bent down and grabbed his armor with the momentum, and lifted it up with a little force.

Although this man's martial arts skills are not good (compared to Xu Chu, Zhou Tai, Xu Huang and other generals who had fought before, Zhu Zhi's martial arts skills are indeed a bit unremarkable), his backbone is quite hard---the whole right arm was stinged by a snake spear, and the bones were exposed, so he could not scream a pain, even though his head was covered with cold sweat. He was a man!

"Are you Zhu Zhi?" I looked at the person's appearance, which was similar to that of Zhu Zhi that Xiaoshu had mentioned, and then asked.

"Bah! I am Zhu Zhi, Danyang, how about it? Zhang Fei, if you dare to offend me, Jiangdong, my Lord Sun Yingluo will never let you go. Wash your neck with Liu and Guan earlier and prepare to die! Hahaha..." Zhu Zhi spat at me and laughed wildly.

"Hmph!" I snorted lightly, hung the snake spear on the side of the horse, and used his right hand to hit Zhu Zhi's neck with a heavy blow, knocking him to death, and then he still gave a look after a wind cavalry beside me.

Not long after, most of the soldiers of the Jiangdong Army who were resisting were killed by the Fengqi army led by Zhao Yun. The remaining dozens of people were heartbroken and either abandoned their weapons and sought surrender, or fled in scattered.

"General, a small group of Jiangdong Army fled to the south gate, but they were going to chase me!" Zhao Yun carried a gun in one hand and asked with a horse.

"Well~! You can lead a wind cavalry to the south gate and catch up with those people. If they have escaped from the city, there is no need to pursue them anymore and surrender the defenders of the south gate on the spot!" I said calmly, "Those men and horses cannot become a big deal, not to mention that there will be people who will deal with them on the way back to Jiangdong! The most urgent thing is to control Lujiang City as soon as possible!"

"Yes, general!" Zhao Yun responded loudly, quickly used the silver spear in his hand and led hundreds of wind cavalry to gallop towards the south gate.
