Chapter Seventy-Two: Dingxi II

Hu Yiqing's head was passed in the hands of several people. The blood dripping all the way drew a continuous line of blood on the ground, and finally put it on a mahogany plate and handed it to Zhang Yuanhai's eyes.

Zhang Yuanhai didn't look at it carefully at all, but just asked, "Are you sure?" ”

The person below immediately said: "I have already found a lot of people to confirm." ”

Zhang Yuanhai said: "Send this head to General Cao." ”

"Yes." The people below immediately put Hu Yiqing's head in a box. Send someone Pegasus to report it.

Zhang Yuanhai was not idle. Naturally, he would not let the Ming army flee in front of him like this. Immediately urge the soldiers to attack.

The first to act was the Sailor. Although Zhang Yuanhai does not have a few warships here, these pirates are indeed more fierce than the generals of the Ming army. It's just that the river is still different from the sea.

Soon Zhang Yuanhai got the news.

A ship ran aground.

But there are stakes under the water.

Zhang Yuanhai reprimanded: "Didn't you tell them that the Ming army had obstacles in the water?" "Although Zhang Yuanhai can command the sailors, he is not the direct boss of these sailor generals after all. Zhang Yuanhai only reprimanded him once or twice. No penalty was imposed.

Instead, the infantry formation was unfolded, approaching the Guijiang camp little by little.

Although the Guijiang camp is strong, there are not many people left today. Naturally, it was effortless to attack.

Zhang Yuanhai was overjoyed, as soon as he entered the Guijiang camp, he immediately asked a familiar pungent smell. Zhang Yuanhai's heart tightened, and he said secretly: "It's fire oil." ”

"Retreat." Zhang Yuanhai said loudly.

It is also the Xia army that has a lot of training, and there are not many soldiers who have entered the Guijiang camp, but only a few hundred. In order to withdraw so quickly, the fire point arranged by Qu Shiyun is extremely vicious. It was the camp gate that burned first. The high watchtowers on both sides of the camp gate, like two giants, roared to the end, blocking the camp gate tightly.

And everywhere else the flames spread everywhere.

Some of the soldiers didn't say a word and jumped off the Guijiang River.

These people can swim, and they only need to swim a few hundred meters down the river to be saved.

The other part, under the leadership of Zhang Yuanhai, forcibly carved out a big hole in the wall and pushed it out of the camp. And when they came out, the wall had already begun to burn, so every soldier who came out was disgraced.

But even so, there were still dozens of soldiers who did not come out.

Qu Shiyun's order to retreat was so hurried that most of the supplies and baggage in the Guijiang River could not be taken away at all, and these things also became the nourishment of the fire

Material.

Zhang Yuanhai had a gloomy face, he knew that this fire would not be able to stop for a while.

And this large camp is on the main traffic route, and it is not easy to bypass it. Whether it is waiting for the fire to be extinguished or making a detour, it is destined to one thing, that is, Zhang Yuanhai can't catch the tail of the Ming army.

"Tell General Cao about the situation here." Zhang Yuanhai's face was as black as a dead man. He continued: "Also, let the brothers rest on the spot. ”

"Yes."

At this time, Cao Zongyu happened to take over Hu Yiqing's head.

Cao Zongyu was overjoyed and said: "It's really good. ”

To be honest, today's miscalculation still made Cao Zongyu a little embarrassed, but no matter what small mistakes occurred in the middle, the final result remained unchanged. Hu Yiqing did not escape from his Five Finger Mountain. It can be regarded as the end of this vicious battle.

It was a fierce battle indeed.

Instead of the battle of ambushing Hu Yiqing, it was the battle of attacking Beiying.

Cao Zongyu thought that after Hu Yiqing escaped, there would be no backbone in the northern camp, and he should be able to go down in one fell swoop, but he guessed the wrong person, that is, Jiao Lian.

Jiao Lian himself is a fierce general.

And at this moment, Jiao Lian was full of guilt. He took all the responsibility for this defeat on himself. He secretly thought in his heart, if I had stopped Liu Chengyin from killing Zhao Xing, if I had found out that Yang Qijiao was wrong in time, if I had been able to react in time the night before.

Too many ifs vs. ifs. But neither if. Countless guilt and regret are like a hundred worms drilling into their hearts. made Jiao Lian always be in a feeling that was more painful than death.

The heart is not at ease, the world is like a fire house, in the thorn bushes, the more you move, the more you hurt.

Therefore, Jiao Lian is really desperate, where there is danger, he will appear everywhere. Almost no life. His own martial arts are strong, coupled with a desperate energy, and he suppressed the generals of the Xia army for a while.

Of course, this pressure has something to do with the lack of fierce generals under Cao Zongyu, but Fan Ma Sanbao, Luo Dai, and Hao Shaoqi are generals, and there is one person here, which is enough to suppress him.

And at this time, everyone could see that the overall situation had been decided, and Cao Zongyu also replaced the elite of the headquarters and sent the head of the army camp that had been recruited. Of course, this is intended to reduce casualties, but it is also intended to let these soldiers beat the water dogs and gain experience.

After all, no amount of training is as good as walking between life and death.

It's just that I never thought that it was not a dog that fell into the water, but a tiger, and it was lost for a while. was beaten by Jiao Lian with a majesty.

The so-called will be brave soldiers, how many Chinese soldiers can generally do it, only the officials do not run, and the soldiers below will run away, Jiao Lian is so majestic, and it also boosts their morale, although only

There are thousands of surrendered troops, occupying part of the middle of the north camp, but it seems to be a hard bone, stuck in the middle and unable to go up and down.

Since it was in the middle of the camp, it was not easy to transport artillery or something. Cao Zongyu didn't want to waste time on this point. Just pay attention to the persuasion. Seeing Hu Yiqing's head, he summoned Yang Qijiao and said to Yang Qijiao: "Hu Yiqing has been awarded the head." I know that General Yang had a very good relationship with General Jiao before, and today I asked General Yang to go to the front line, which can be regarded as Jiao Lian finding a way out. With thousands of remnants, he will die sooner or later. It can also be regarded as a brother of General Yang. ”

Yang Qijiao didn't know what kind of expression he was, as if he numbly took Hu Yiqing's head, and walked numbly in the north camp.

What seemed to be a city-like camp has been reduced to ruins.

The outermost solid wood wall was torn down in several places, and there were knife marks and gun marks everywhere, and the smell of blood and gunpowder was everywhere. There was also a camp of wounded soldiers temporarily housed in the ruins, and from time to time there was the sound of groaning, and there were large piles of straw mats, and two feet were exposed in the straw mats, so that people could know what was in the straw mats.

The flames were like weeds, and they flickered somewhere.

After the extensive use of firearms, the word war also became a real word. It can probably refer to this kind of fire caused by the fighting, most of which are not extinguished, but even if they are extinguished. Many traces cannot be erased. It seems that there are many traces in Yang Qijiao's heart.

"General Yang, you're here."

Yang Chengjiao felt that he had come to the front line, and when he looked at it from a distance, there was a small village in the distance, in the middle of the North Camp, where Hu Yiqing's Chinese army was located.

"On the orders of General Cao, come to persuade Jiao Lian to surrender." Yang Chengjiao said.

"General Yang, please." An officer immediately led the way for Yang Chengjiao.

As soon as Yang Chengjiao passed, he heard a burst of discussion behind him and said, "Big brother, why are you so polite?" Isn't it just a white-eyed wolf? ”

"Say what? No matter what his background is, he has made great contributions in this battle, and he will definitely rise to prominence in the future, and he must not be offended. ”

"Hmph, a white-eyed wolf is a white-eyed wolf, and General Cao will beware of being bitten by him in the future."

"Say less than two words, and disaster will come from the mouth."

"Yes. Be. ”

The two who spoke didn't know that the people who practiced martial arts were clear-eyed. This conversation all fell into Yang Chengjiao's ears. Yang Chengjiao naturally didn't go to the two little soldiers to worry about, but he also felt physically and mentally exhausted, and this exhaustion was more about the soul.

The rebel Ming army wanted more revenge. came up with this breath, and now that this breath came out, he felt even more tired.

He took a deep breath, tried to dispel the exhaustion in his heart, and shouted, "General Jiao, Yang Chengjiao asks to see." ”
