Chapter 138 Fire in the backyard
In the jungle, Bai Ba’s horse thief gang quickly retreated.
A big man with a bearded face followed Bai Ba anxiously and said, "General, why don't you take advantage of the victory to pursue it? I missed this great opportunity. It's not easy next time."
"The Zhao army was just in a mess and was shocked by our power. Once they calmed down, we would fail. While they didn't understand our reality, they retreated for a while and were discussing." After Bai Ba was worthy of the famous general, he calmed down in his analysis.
Sure enough, shortly after Bai Ba and his friends withdrew, the dispersed Zhao army and Deng Tu's supporters immediately regrouped and rushed to the place where Bai Ba and the others had just lurked.
Deng Tu is not a good person. He first covered the dead woods in front of him with dense rain of arrows. Then he surrounded him. It was not until they searched the entire forest that they found that the horse thief had already left.
He screamed in anger. Deng Tu waved the long halberd in his hand and cursed: "Chasing me and kill all the horse thieves." His 10,000 vanguards were defeated by Bai Ba, with many casualties.
Deng Tu couldn't accept such losses, and he wanted to take revenge, and he was crazy. The best way was to kill all the horse thieves.
As for what to threaten the wealthy merchants in Linji City in the future, Deng Tu has already figured out that he might as well send his confidant to pretend to be a horse thief, so that he will be more foolproof.
The Zhao army received a pursuit order and fought bravely in front of the chief general.
There are many good tracking experts in the army, and it is not difficult to find traces of Bai Ba and the others' escape in the snow and fallen leaves in the jungle.
This time, Deng Tu was determined to gather 20,000 troops, and the defeated Zhao army returned to the team. A total of more than 20,000 people began to search wildly in the dense forests of Luerling and encircle them.
Bai Ba and his team didn't have much manpower, but they lost a lot of money in the battle just now. At this moment, there were only more than a thousand people. They were hiding in the woods not far away, watching the large army of tens of thousands of people in the Zhao army conducting a carpet-style search.
"Brothers, this time it will probably be a death battle. I didn't expect Deng Tu to dare to invade the enemy. Now those who are willing to fight will stay. Those who are unwilling to fight can choose their own choice." Bai Ba looked at Zhao Jun who was getting closer and said coldly.
"General, I have been in the Bai family since I was a child and I swear to follow him to the death." The bearded man behind Bai Ba did not hesitate.
"General, since Deng Tu doesn't let us survive, we won't let him feel better." A horse thief beside him said gritting his teeth.
"General, we are all from horse thieves. If we weren't general, we would have finished."
"Yes, we won't survive alone, please give orders just by giving orders."
Bai Ba had tears in his eyes. People with a hot personality rarely cried. Since he betrayed Zhao State, he was constantly besieged by the military army of the Wuchen. The Bai family's dead soldiers went to seven or eight. These horse thieves were some of the green forest men he came to Luerling to capture. Although they were rough and unreasonable, they valued loyalty.
"Okay, Bai Ba, but he has a breath. He will definitely let his brothers get rid of the identity of a thief in his lifetime." As he said that, he tore off a strip of cloth and tied his hands to the silver spear. He wanted to fight to the death.
"Bow and arrow, prepare." The bearded man whispered. More than a thousand horse thieves behind him immediately bent their bows and arrows, preparing to give Deng Tujun a head-on blow.
Just as the two armies were approaching infinitely, Bai Ba suddenly left the battle formation and rushed out alone.
Seeing a flash of figure in front of him, Deng Tu waved his hand, and Zhao Jun immediately stopped and was on guard.
"Deng Tu, Bai Ba is here to meet you today. Do you dare to fight me to the death?" Bai Ba, who was alone, rushed out of the hidden jungle alone and faced tens of thousands of enemy soldiers.
Looking at the young man wearing a white helmet and white armor opposite him, Deng Tu breathed a deep breath and murmured: "Bai Ba!"
He had never seen Bai Ba, but he knew about Bai Ba's general situation from the national hunting order under the military ministers. It is true that the person in front of him was Bai Ba.
Bai Ba's name almost shocked the entire Zhao State. Bai Qi's descendants were extremely powerful and had the courage of thousands of men. One person was in Sanchuan County to block the Qin army for several days. If it were not for the false king Wu Guang and Tian Zang framed him, the Qin army would have been restrained in Sanchuan County.
Wu Chen once said that whoever can capture or kill Bai Ba alive will be granted a king and a marquis immediately. Although Wu Chen himself is just a prince, he has no strength in his title. But for people like Deng Tu, the saying of being granted a king and a marquis is enough for him to be awesome for his whole life.
"Bai Ba, I didn't expect that I would meet Bai Ba. Although he is very famous, he seems to be at the end of his life." Deng Tu was secretly happy in his heart. You must know that Bai Ba can be regarded as a famous general of Zhao. If Bai Ba can be killed, although it is not famous all over the world, everyone will definitely know it in Zhao.
"Fight alone." Deng Tu looked at Bai Ba jokingly and said with a smile: "I didn't know what fighting alone is when I was born."
As he said that, he waved his hand and said loudly: "Give me a chance to kill Bai Ba, and I will sit for you my seat." Under his order, Zhao Jun immediately aroused. Although they were also afraid of Bai Ba's name, there was only one person on the other side. Many ants bite the elephant to death, not to mention that he was just a person.
"General, no." Just as Deng Tu made up his mind to attack, a person with a deer-headed and rat next to him said softly.
This man is Deng Tu's brother-in-law, named Zhang Shu. Because he has many ghost ideas, he is full of bad water and has a deer-headed and mouse-headed look. Everyone calls him Zhang Shu.
Zhang Shuo leaned into Deng Tu's ear and whispered: "Boss, Bai Ba is a famous general. I think he will come out alone, it must be not easy. You have to be careful."
Deng Tu slapped his head, glanced at Zhang Shu with satisfaction, and whispered: "Damn, if you don't say it, I almost thought to himself." As he said that, he waved his hand and Zhao Jun immediately stopped moving forward.
"Send someone to test his reality." Zhang Shuo whispered.
Deng Tu nodded and shouted: "There is a rebel in Zhao State ahead. Who dares to step forward to take down his head? This general reports to the emperor and grant him the title of Marquis of Wanhu."
After hearing these powerful words, Zhao Jun immediately became eager to try. However, Bai Ba's reputation was too big, and these people dared not act rashly.
After a silence, a roar broke out in the Zhao army: "I'll do it."
A side-by-side general waved the axe in his hand and rushed straight towards Bai Ba.
There was no one riding a horse in the jungle. The general was not tall, but with his two short legs, he was extremely fast, and the big axe in his hand was dancing so hard that he could see the wind.
Bai Ba stood with a gun until the small axe, who was a side-straitor, came to him, then he suddenly exerted force and knocked the spear hard towards the axe.
The sound of "dang" was deafening.
The little man took a few steps back before he stabilized his body. His hands holding the axe pole cracked their mouths, and blood flowed down his wrists.
Fortunately, others have always been strong. Although the tiger's mouth was shaking, they held the big axe tightly and did not let go. They just trembled slightly, and it was obvious that Bai Ba's moment just now made him very difficult.
"Too weak." Bai Ba gave out a light breath and said calmly.
"Ah!" As if he was angry by these words, the little man roared and rushed forward again.
Bai Ba did not fight him head-on. He did not dodge the axe, poked the tip of the spear, and turned around and kicked the little man in the back of the heart.
The side could no longer hold the axe and flew out with a huge sound of breaking wind, slashing on a dead tree, trembling constantly.
The little man spurted blood out of his mouth frantically, and his whole body hit the dead tree in front of him, slowly softening, obviously only venting but not inhaling.
"Who else will come again?" Bai Ba said coldly without even looking at the little man who was drooping.
Deng Tu and Zhang Shuo looked at each other.
Zhang Shuo whispered: "It seems that there is no problem."
Deng Tu looked at Bai Ba viciously and said with a grin: "My sons, come with me and kill him." With his shouting, Zhao Jun immediately rushed forward.
Just as they approached Bai Ba, they suddenly shot dense feather arrows from the woods behind Bai Ba. The Zhao army rushing in front immediately fell over and fell down by arrows.
"It's paralyzed, there's an ambush." Deng Tu was afraid of Bai Ba's reputation in his heart. He suddenly encountered an attack at this moment. He immediately roared and retreated.
Zhang Shu grabbed Deng Tu and shouted: "Although their arrows are dense, they are not many, and there are not many people."
Deng Tu finally calmed down and found that it was indeed the case. He immediately sneered: "My sons, try to capture Bai Ba alive." The Zhao army immediately pressed up.
Just when Bai Ba’s horse thief was in danger, a large amount of black smoke suddenly emerged from the direction of Linji City, and fires flashed in the black smoke from time to time.
A soldier from Zhao immediately came to report: "General Deng, Linji City was attacked and had been set on fire by horse thieves. Please support."
"What?" Deng Tu looked at Bai Ba who was right in front of him, but did not dare to delay and immediately ordered the withdrawal of his troops. After all, he was the county magistrate of Linji, and if something happened to the guard, he would definitely be the only one to ask.
Bai Ba naturally would not miss this opportunity and immediately commanded the horse thieves to chase Deng Tu's army. Fortunately, Deng Tu retreated in an orderly manner with the help of Zhang Shu, so he was not killed by Bai Ba.
