Chapter Twenty-Four: Death

"According to the scout, the lord has reported that Zhu Fu and the others have led a large group of people to Linhe to intercept the two generals, Yan Liang and Wen Chou!" The City Lord's Mansion was brightly lit at the moment, as if it was daytime, and teams of soldiers and horses were patrolling in groups of three or five, not even a single mosquito did not want to approach.

Zhou Qi sat in front of the bookcase and looked at Guo Jia who rushed over, a flash of light flashed in his eyes, like a watchtower in the dark night guiding the lost ship to return home, making people involuntarily fall into it and feel safe.

"Feng Kao, do you mean that the enemy led all the soldiers and horses away?" Zhou Qi asked with some uncertainty, as if he felt powerless that things were out of his control.

"The lord doesn't have to worry, as long as the two generals, Yan Liang and Wen Chou, act according to a certain family's words, they will definitely be able to break the enemy!" Guo Jia didn't seem to pay any attention to Zhu Fu's pouring out of the nest, after all, his strategy was aimed at group battles, and if the enemy sent a few men and horses, I am afraid it would not have any effect.

"Fengkao, don't we need to send some soldiers and horses to support the two eldest brothers, Yan Liangwen and Chou?" Zhou Qi still felt a little uneasy, and asked the other party again.

In the face of the lord's inquiry, Guo Jia, as a top strategist, still didn't understand the other party's superficial meaning, and then showed a faint smile: "Since the lord is not at ease, it is better to let Brother Dian Wei lead the tiger and leopard to support, even if it is discovered by the enemy, you can retreat as soon as possible!" ”

"Good!" Zhou Qi heard Guo Jia's analysis, and the big stone hanging high in his heart could finally be put back into his stomach with peace of mind, and then he shouted slightly outside the room, and soon a personal guard walked in quickly, and watched the other party leave quickly with a few simple instructions to this person.

"Squeak!" With a bang, the suspension bridge that was originally hung high was quietly lowered at some point, and the tall wooden door was slowly opened from the inside, only to see a team of tigers and leopards armed with big teeth, led by a fierce man, rushing towards the official road leading to Linhe in the distance.

Zhou Qi and the others stood above the city wall, looking at the brothers of Brother Dian Wei and the tiger and leopard riders who disappeared into the night, and prayed in their hearts that the other party could return safely.

It is said that after the two brothers Yan Liang and Wen Chou arrived in Linhe, they handed over the letterhead prepared by the lord to Zhou Cang and others, who hurriedly prepared the cattle to transport grain and grass, rested in the city for a night, and then led the team of men and horses to walk slowly towards the road they came.

As if worried that the enemy would not appear, the speed of the group could not be described as slow, and I couldn't help praying that those guys would appear soon, but not wait until they returned to the city to pay the difference.

A group of people walked slowly to the front of a dense jungle, looking at the finches in the sky that had not fallen for a long time, and the surrounding monster bushes that seemed to be fangs and claws, the two involuntarily looked at each other with a solemn look on their faces, obviously the enemy had appeared, in order not to be found by the other party, they could only pretend to be unaware and lead the team towards the jungle.

"My lord, the enemy has entered the trap, shall we close the net?" Seeing Yan Liang and the others enter the encirclement, a military general beside Zhu Fu looked at the other party and asked cautiously, as if he was worried that the voice would be too loud and cause the enemy to find out.

Zhu Fu naturally saw the other party enter his encirclement, but for the sake of safety, he still asked the subordinates around him to pay attention to hide one by one, and never be found waiting for his orders.

Yan Liang and Wen Chou led the men and horses to walk in the jungle, with a solemn look on their faces, the attack that they had been waiting for for a long time did not appear at all, and their hearts became irritable for a while, this feeling was really unpleasant.

"Shoot the arrows!" Suddenly, there was a cannon shot, and I saw a group of soldiers and horses standing up, looking at Yan Liang and his party with hideous faces, holding exquisite longbows, and the cold and shining bows and arrows poured down.

"Shield!" Looking at the sky full of arrow feathers, Yan Liang's face changed slightly, and shouted to the people around him, and after a while, a famous Jingzhou army quickly put the upper shield in his hand on the ground, forming a shield wall for the arrow feathers to shoot, and there was a crisp sound on the top, leaving a faint white spot, and a thick layer of arrow feathers fell on the ground in a short time.

Zhu Fu's face turned red when he looked at such a scene, he led the men and horses to ambush and was stunned that he didn't kill an enemy, I'm afraid no one would believe such a thing.

"Damn it, charge Lao Tzu!" Seeing that the arrow feathers were ineffective, they could only use their soldiers to charge, and strive to kill the enemy before the opponent could react.

A look of hesitation flashed on the faces of the soldiers around them when they heard this, but when they saw Zhu Fu's blood-red eyes, they could only stubbornly kill the enemy at the bottom of the mountain.

Yan Liang saw that the arrows had stopped, and the soldiers standing on the mountain were now charging to death, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "Release the arrow!" ”

When the Jingzhou army heard this, they still put the square shields on the ground one by one to expose a gap, and only to see a cold and shining arrow feather appear in everyone's sight.

"Buzz!" With a bang, the cold and shining arrow feathers like locusts crossing the border instantly shot the soldiers who rushed to kill into hedgehogs, and with a heavy look of unwillingness, they fell into a pool of blood and dyed the ground blood-red, and for a while the air was filled with a faint smell of blood.

Seeing the death of their comrades, the charging soldiers hurriedly stopped and quickly retreated in the direction they came, for fear of repeating the mistakes of the past and entering the fate of those dead comrades.

Zhu Fu looked at the soldiers who had retreated, his face turned pale, and he instantly pulled out the long sword on his waist, and in a flash of cold light, he saw that a soldier passing by this person ended up with a head and a family.

A dead human head rolled on the ground with a grunt, as if it couldn't believe that the lord would kill him.

"If the retreater dies, Lao Tzu will rush forward, as long as Yan Liang and Wen Chou are killed, a certain family will have a bounty of 1,000 taels, and Mei Ji will be five!" Zhu Fu was covered in blood, his face was hideous, and he looked at everyone present, his voice was low, like a demon walking in hell, giving people a chilling feeling.

Hearing this, the soldiers' eyes burst out with bright golden light, as if they had been beaten with chicken blood, and rushed towards Yan Liang and the others, even if the comrades in front of them fell, the next person would instantly fill the position without the slightest intention of retreating.

Yan Liang looked at the enemy who was getting closer and closer, even the crossbow in his hand was a little unable to keep up with the speed of the enemy, but fortunately, he had the strategy explained by the lord before he came, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, as if he had seen the picture of the enemy's tragic death.

Compared with Yan Liang's optimistic smile, Zhu Fu on the hillside in the distance was not the same, only to see a trace of a victorious smile on the corner of the other party's mouth, watching his subordinates approach little by little, as long as the other party's grain and grass were destroyed to occupy Guiyang County, it was still a matter of capture.

"Kill! For a better tomorrow! Seeing that the distance between the two sides was getting closer and closer, a captain shouted to his subordinates around him to boost the morale of everyone.

Yan Liang's eyes narrowed slightly, and at some point, an extra longbow appeared in his hand and put an arrow feather on the bow Xuan, and a black light flew out quickly, killing the person instantly.

"Phew! Just you kid talk a lot! He spat heavily on thick phlegm and looked at the dead enemy with a look of disdain.

The soldiers beside this man saw the captain die, and his face turned extremely pale

, I also wanted to retreat, but there was a crowd around me, and there was no possibility of retreating, so I could only move forward silently helplessly.

Yan Liang saw that the time had come, and the fierce light in his eyes flashed, and he immediately ordered the wood on the scalper next to him to be ignited, "Moo! A cry that resounded through the sky lingered in the sky for a long time.

"What's going on?" Zhu Fu asked the people around him for some reason, after all, why did the enemy scalper scream so frightened for no reason.

The masked man also had an indifferent look at first, but as time passed, his face became a little difficult to look at after hearing the call of the ox, and he saw that the tight shield wall that had been blocked before had long since disappeared, leaving only the oxen with red eyes and the oxen who kept digging the soil with their hooves, and the fire on their backs.

"Run!" I don't know who shouted, and Zhu Fu's soldiers rushed towards the surroundings with frightened expressions on their faces, and even waved their weapons at their former teammates in order to survive.

Some of the more unlucky guys tripped directly over the corpses of their previously dead comrades, and before they could stand up, they were trampled alive by the soldiers behind them, and for a while the screams were like hell on earth.

"It's over! It's all over! Zhu Fu looked at the subordinates who had collapsed with a desperate look on their faces, obviously they didn't expect such a thing to happen, the whole person was paralyzed on the ground, his eyes were gray and there was no trace of life.

"My lord, I will leave before the enemy has launched a charge, and the green mountains left behind are not afraid of no firewood!" The masked man was also surprised by Zhou Qi'er's trickery at this time, and he didn't expect that he would be defeated by the other party, but in order to continue to delay time, he had to save Zhu Fu, so he opened his mouth to persuade the other party.

"It's all you! It's all you guy who asked a certain family to lead a large group of people to intercept the grain, and now it's okay, the grain is not intercepted, but so many brothers have died! Zhu Fu finally returned to his soul when he heard the masked man's words, and the next second he stretched out his hands to hold the other party firmly in his hands, so that he could torture him to eliminate the hatred in his heart.

Looking at Zhu Fu, who suddenly stretched out his hands, a fierce light appeared on the masked man's face, and the next second, he saw Liu Gang, who was ghostly, appear in front of the other party, and hit the person in the abdomen with a bland straight punch.

"Wow!" Feeling the attack coming from his abdomen, Zhu Fu hunched over like a boiled prawn and looked at the other party with an incredulous expression.

"Boy, are you too presumptuous, apologize to a certain family, otherwise you won't live!" Zhu Fu's face turned pale, and he cautiously came to the side of the guard to confirm his safety, and then looked at Liu Gang, who looked indifferent, and said proudly.

The masked man smiled sarcastically when he heard this, as if he had been completely disappointed in this person, and turned to walk towards the dense forest in the distance.

Looking at the masked man who left a black shadow, Zhu Fu's face was extremely ugly, and he didn't seem to have the slightest good impression of this person, "You waste, what are you still doing in a daze, kill this fang quickly, otherwise you won't have to live!" He yelled loudly at the guards around him with unkind looks.

"Poof!" With a sound, a long sword glittering with cold light was inserted into Zhu Fu's chest from the hand of one of the guards, "My lord, I'm sorry, we are also here to live, so only when you die can you save more people's lives!" Then he kicked on the corpse of Zhu Fu, who was not staring at him.

The indifferent guards around saw that the lord was killed, and in the next second, they rushed towards each other's corpses, waving the long sword in their hands, and soon they were frantically broken into a puddle of flesh by everyone's crazy corpses... to be continued
