Chapter 25
"Bang!" The last Jiangdong Army soldier fell into the snow with anger.
I immediately slapped and looked at the bodies of more than 10 Jiangdong soldiers with a hint of respect. These were obviously used to lure my attention to cover Zhou Tai's evacuation. Even though I knew it was not my opponent, I still launched a "strike with eggs" attack on me in order to hold back my steps. In the end, no one surrendered or fled. The saying "There are many righteous men in Hebei, but there are no men in Jiangzuo" is so ridiculous! Although there are many righteous men in Hebei Yanzhao, Jiangzuo may not be without men! These soldiers in Jiangdong army can die lightly, just for their own loyalty. What's more, those heroes in Jiangdong...
What I didn't expect was that Zhou Tai would be so eager to let his soldiers ride his own war horse to lure me to chase him. He took Zhang Hong on foot to evacuate in other directions. A not-so-wise but very effective strategy!
After being delayed for such a period of time, Zhou Tai's escaped footprints may have been smoothed out by the wind and snow, and it is no longer practical to continue chasing and killing!
Alas... I didn't expect that I still couldn't kill Zhou Tai under such circumstances, which is a pity!
Forget it, go back and see how Lin Bao is going. Turn the black horse and pat it gently on its back, "Go away, old man!" The black horse shook his head, hissed in a long voice, then let go of his four hooves and walked away on the snow.
When I returned to the battlefield again, Lin Bao and his team's battle was coming to an end. Hundreds of Cao's soldiers were either dead or injured and fell into the snow, and dozens of them had abandoned their weapons and surrendered. In the end, there were less than 40 Cao's soldiers who were still fighting stubbornly. These soldiers were nervously guarding a carriage. It seemed that the important figure in the carriage should be, and the most likely was the daughter of Xiahou Yuan who was about to marry Sun Quan.
Hundreds of cavalrymen of the Wind Cavalry camp were like hunting wolves, tightly surrounding the remaining Cao soldiers. In the circle, Lin Bao was fighting fiercely with a Cao army captain. Seeing me riding my horse, the Wind Cavalrymen flashed out a path and let me enter the inside of the circle. I watched the battle for a while and realized the situation - Lin Bao's martial arts were better than the other party, but because the other party fought hard to fight to the death, it seemed to be evenly matched for the time being. However, it was obvious that the opponent's spirit had gradually lost, and Lin Bao's victory was only a matter of time. As expected, after the two fought again for 7 or 8, Lin Bao found a gap between the other party, shouted loudly, and stabbed the enemy generals with one shot. Unexpectedly, Lin Bao's martial arts were much more sophisticated than when he was in the ancient city. It seemed that being Zhao Yun's deputy benefited him a lot.
Seeing Lin Bao win, the soldiers of the Fengqi Battalion who were watching the formation raised their swords in their hands and roared wildly: "Okay!"
The idea that the generals and soldiers are integrated, the generals are honored, and the generals are shameful, are the thoughts that I have been instilling in the army. Because only in this way can the generals and the soldiers under the rule work together and be invincible. Judging from the scene in front of us, this has been done well in the Fengqi Camp.
"Zi Chong, well done!"
Lin Bao heard this admiration, turned around and saw me smiling. He immediately put away his gun and bent over to salute me, and said excitedly: "Thank you for your praise!" Then, he rode his horse to me, "General, the morale of the remaining enemy troops has fallen. Do you want to call them to surrender?"
I looked up at the dozens of Cao soldiers in the encirclement. The death of the Cao army captain just now had caused the last spiritual pillar of these soldiers to collapse. To put it bluntly, they no longer had any fighting spirit. Looking at the confused and panicked faces, I sighed softly in my heart, turned around and nodded at Lin Bao.
After Lin Bao got my permission, he rode his horse to 10 steps away from Cao's army and shouted sternly: "You are already awarded the title of the head. You will not surrender yet, when will you wait?"
The remaining Cao soldiers looked at each other for a moment. "Bang!" "Bang!" With the sound of weapons falling to the ground, dozens of Cao soldiers all leaned on the ground and asked to surrender, and at the same time declared that the surprise attack was completely over!
The battle was over, but another difficult problem had to be placed in front of me - the person in the carriage in front of me, if nothing unexpected happens, it must be the daughter of Xiahou Yuan. How should I deal with her - kill? Deport? Or...
Forget it, let’s take it back first and discuss it with Xu Shu before talking about it!
"Zi Chong, leave a team of people to clear the battlefield and bury the enemy's bodies on the spot. If there are any serious injuries, they will be sent to the road. The rest of the people escorted the prisoners and carriages back to Shouchun. All our army was killed and the injured brothers were brought back to Shouchun. By the way, this carriage must be taken care of!" I ordered Lin Bao beside me.
"Yes, General!"
Just as I turned around and was about to leave, a slightly tender female voice suddenly came from the carriage, "Miss, don't go out, there are no good people outside...Miss, Miss!"
"Swish!" The sound of the curtain being lifted. Immediately afterwards, a thunderous thrust came from all around. "Ha~~~!"
"General Zhang, is it you?" A female voice as pleasant as the sound of nature came from behind me. I didn't see anyone, and it was fascinating to hear the sound.
Hum???? The woman in this car actually knew me? I hadn't come to my senses for a while, and turned around hesitantly. At the same time, I saw the carriage curtain half-up, and a beautiful woman in white leaned out slightly. Her mane was tied with dark clouds, her eyebrows were crescent moon, her muscles were condensed with auspicious snow, and her face was set against the morning glow. Her eyes were cut, her face was peanuts and red face, her clouds were lightly combing her cicada wings, and her eyebrows were faintly brushing the spring mountain. She was wearing a snow fur, just like a white lotus coming out of the water. Her eyebrows, every move, all her eyes were naturally revealed with a dignified and elegant charm, and the elegant aura between heaven and earth seemed to have been given to her. It was "There is a beauty in the north, peerless and independent. She looked at the city and the country." No wonder even the iron-blooded cavalry around her was breathless.
The pair of bright eyes of kindness are now looking forward to it, staring at me with infinite complexity.
After a moment of silence, I woke up. It was her! The beautiful lady with a wise and orchid heart she met in the ancient city seemed to be named Xiahou Rong. Ah!!! Xiahou Rong?????!!!!!!!!! Could it be that she is Xiahou Yuan’s daughter? Is it her who wants to marry Sun Quan?
"General Zhang, it's really you! Still... remember the little... little girl?" The beauty seemed to have plucked up all her strength before she said these words. Her beautiful face like snow added several red glows. The bright light that was revealed inadvertently made the world lose its color.
For some reason, when I saw her again this time, the shock I gave me was more than ten times stronger than the last time. Unconsciously, it seemed that I had become addicted to her charm, and the haggardness hidden under her smiling face made me feel palpitations, making me unable to help but want to calm the sadness in her heart.
Wu Zhi and I moved at will. Without any instructions from me, they turned around and slowly walked towards the direction of the carriage. After a while, Wu Zhi had already carried me to less than two steps away from the carriage. I looked down, and she looked up, and there was something silently communicating between her eyes...
Except for her and me, there seemed to be nothing between heaven and earth, and the fields were silent.
"Miss, don't..." The silent tacit understanding was broken by a tender and crisp female voice. The curtain of the car was originally half-removed, and a beautiful woman with three-point childishness popped out of the car. It was Xiahou Rong's maid Jin'er. The little girl was about to pull Xiahou Rong back into the car, but noticed that the carriage was surrounded by blood, and the soldiers of the Fengqi camp were immediately screaming in horror. Suddenly, she saw me standing in front of the carriage and immediately threw away the fear before, pointed at me excitedly, and shouted: "Miss, Miss, it's General Zhang, the General Zhang you have been thinking about every day...!"
"Puchi!" Lin Bao, who was standing behind me, was always calm and solemn, couldn't help but smile on his face!
Xiahou Rong and I almost retracted our gazes that we stared at each other and turned our faces. I, who had always been carefree, couldn't help but feel hot. Fortunately, my face was dark and others could not see anything unusual. Xiahou Rong was completely different. Her white and flawless jade face immediately became like the morning glow, and was full of red. However, after a moment, she turned her head again, and her eyes as deep as the pool of water were looking at me bravely.
Her expression made me panic. Could it be that the daughter of Xiahou Yuan, the general of Cao Cao, who is considered to be the mortal enemy of our army, really imprinted me deeply into her heart after meeting me in the ancient city? Although it is quite unbelievable, the deep affection that her eyes reveal is not as good as water.
If I was not careful, I almost indulged in her tenderness but a trace of determination gaze was hidden. Destiny! Could she be my destiny? This kind of thought suddenly popped up in my mind.
"General, it's cold and windy here, not a place to talk. Let's escort this aunt...small... back to Shouchun first!" Lin Bao didn't think of what to call Xiahou Rong. This woman who was rescued by him and Liao Hua was obviously the daughter of Cao's general Xiahou Yuan, but from the scene in front of him, she seemed quite in love with her general.
"Uh~~Miss Xiahou, you can go back to Shouchun with the convoy first, okay?" I said to Xiahou Rong slowly.
Xiahou Rong's jade head was slightly a little bit, and she turned around lightly, and was about to enter the car. Suddenly, she turned around and asked softly to me: "General Zhang, all the soldiers who were escorting the convoy..."
I nodded and said in a deep voice: "Except for more than a hundred people surrender, the rest have all died in battle!"
"Is that right..." A trace of sadness flashed across Xiahou Rong's face, and she said sadly: "General Zhang, can you buried them?"
"kindness!"
Before entering the car, Xiahou Rong mustered up the courage again and asked with an extremely concerned tone: "Your injury... is not in the way..."
I glanced at the wound that had already condensed, and smiled and replied: "It's okay, it's a trauma!"
"Then... that's good!" The beauty disappeared behind the curtain of the car.
"Depart and return to Shouchun!"
………………………………………………….
Zhou Tai was carrying Zhang Hong on his back, followed two personal soldiers closely behind him, and ran quickly towards the southeast in the wind and snow. Although Zhou Tai himself was seriously injured, he was strong and could still support him after all. However, Zhang Hong on his back was getting weaker and weaker and his body became colder. He could not find a warm place, and find a doctor in time. I am afraid that Zhang Hong would not be able to stand it for long. Zhou Tai was anxious.
Suddenly, Zhou Tai heard the familiar voice again in his ears, "You... Ping..., have you escaped?"
Zhou Tai stopped, turned his head and saw Zhang Hong on his back miraculously awakening, and a little blood-red look appeared on his face, and he was slightly open and looking at him.
Zhou Tai couldn't help but feel ecstatic. He looked around and found a small forest. He carried Zhang Hong into the forest. He gently put Zhang Hong down and asked with concern: "Mr. Zigang, are you getting better?"
Unexpectedly, Zhang Hong shook his head slightly and said in a weak voice: "Youping, I... have been dead for a while..." Only then did Zhou Tai realize that the blood red on Zhang Hong's face was the pathological flush.
Rebirth????
"Youping, I... have passed my destiny. I don't want to regret it if I die at this time... However, I am very sorry to not see my lord accomplishing the cause of kings. Although my lord is young, he has great talents and ambitions, and his future is limitless. You should try your best to assist the lord in your daily life..."
Zhou Tai looked sad, held back his tears, nodded and responded: "Don't worry sir!"
Zhang Hong showed a comforting smile and continued, "I have some more words, Youping tells the lord for me." Seeing Zhou Tai nodding and listening intently, Zhang Hong said, "In the past, I have seen all over Jiangdong, but I saw that the land of Moling is the most emperor-like. The lord wants to achieve great things in the future, so he can move the capital here. Cough cough..." Suddenly, Zhang Hong coughed sharply, and a trace of blood overflowed from the corner of his mouth.
"Sir, let's take a break before..." Zhou Tai was shocked and wanted to dissuade him.
Zhang Hong shook his head and said, "I don't have much time anymore. Finally, I have something to say, Youping... Which side did you attack us?"
Zhou Tai groaned with groaning: "It's Liu Bei's army, and it's Liu Bei's brother Zhang Fei who is leading the army!"
"Oh...it seems that Shouchun must have fallen into the hands of Liu Bei's army. Youping, return to Jiangdong... Remember... to dissuade the lord from rising up and avenge me..."
