Chapter 22: Life to Death

To the west of the bow, he threw the horse's brush into the bucket, and the splash of muddy water fell to the ground along the armor skirt of the heavy cavalry. He had not been unarmoured for several days, and his close-fitting overcoat had been worn out by the cowhide lining of the riding armor, and at some point, the shoulders under the two shoulder straps were bloody.

Zhang Jaw took the time to remove the shoulder armor yesterday and asked the camp doctor to see it, the skin injury was fine, but it was repeatedly sharpened after applying the medicinal powder, and when this battle was over, I am afraid that it will be difficult to lift heavy objects for a month or two.

With the rain of the previous day, the whitish flesh near the wound will be cleanly ripped off in the bright lobby of a certain city in Yecheng or Jizhou one day in the future.

He hoped to be in the city of Nanpi.

The ring knife was dipped in water and sharpened on the rough stone, and the rustling sound of the knife grinding was silent and tough, and Zhang Jaw finally asked: "Last night's fire burned from the west of Guanjin, that was our camp, do you see clearly?" ”

The soldier who bowed down in front of Zhang Jaw was full of panic, and nodded in response: "It's true, captain, it is definitely not the fire in Guanjin City, the northwest wind, if Guanjin City is on fire, the fields in the east of the city will definitely be burned, and the bright one will never be the ...... in Guanjin City."

"That's enough."

The sound of sharpening the knife stopped, and Zhang Jaw did not raise his head and still focused on his blade, but just shook his head slightly, and said, "You go down, let the soldiers cook, and assemble in half an hour." ”

When the soldiers ran away and delivered orders to the dozen or so camps scattered within a radius of several miles between the mountains and fields, Zhang Jaw raised his head in a daze, looked at the calm forest and sighed imperceptibly.

Lu Yi and Gao Ran treat Chun Yu, Qiong, Yan, Liangwen and Chou as soft persimmons, and play with them at will. They besieged but did not attack, just to avoid casualties among the sergeants and pawns of the dignified array, and to hold back more than 10,000 enemy troops between Guanjin and Wuyi, wait for Nanpi to fall, and attack and surrender this force.

Just like the rebellion of the royal family, Zhang Jaw understood.

But the trick has been played after all, it is an army of 10,000, not something that can be played at will. It's 10,000 pigs, who dares to stop when you charge?

"Suck!"

Zhang Jaw frowned, unconsciously pressed his fingertips on the sharp ring blade, and a few drops of blood flowed out in the blink of an eye, red.

Last night's north-west fire burned all night, and the sky was bright for three hours from the hour until dawn. No one put out the fire, and it was not until noon today that green smoke rose up, which made people feel cold.

In that direction, General Yan has an army of 30,000!

That is, 30,000 pigs arch with their noses, and even the fire of an hour will be extinguished!

Only the dead can't put out the fire, and it's like green smoke rising now. The invincible Koji general may have also become a familiar general with a scorched exterior and tender inside.

Water and fire are the most ruthless, last year Captain Jiang drowned more than 30,000 people on the bank of the Yishui River, and I am afraid that a monstrous fire in Guanjin this year will devour more than 20,000 lives.

What a!

Zhang Jaw dragged a horizontal line on the ground with an iron shoe, and the ring knife pierced three points on the horizontal line. On the left is Guanjin Wuyi, where there are now less than 10,000 enemy troops, maybe 5,000 or 8,000 tiger and wolf divisions wrapped in the power of great victory; On the right is the bow height and even the south skin, scattered with all kinds of chasing soldiers sent by Yuan Tan, maybe 5,000 or maybe 8,000 soldiers who have laid a net of heaven and earth.

The unlucky guy caught in the middle is Zhang Junyi, who has more than 2,000 poor people in his hands, and even more than 400 tired soldiers with war horses left, and he has to kill dozens of mounts after eating this meal and the next meal.

"There is a huge difference between the enemy and me, well, let's look at the location." Zhang Jaw no longer thought about the rather ridiculous one as ten, looked around and left, his mind had already flown out of the sky, thinking about the topographic map of Jizhou in his memory.

There is a large road to the north that can lead to Moxian's hometown, and the enemy is not able to block it, but the distance is too far, and he just ordered all the mounts to be slaughtered slowly and could not be driven back; A road to the west, leading directly to Wuyi, can compete with those Bohai famous generals with the power of great victory; The east side is not bad, and the three roads lead to Nanpi, which is heavily guarded, Zhangshui, which has no boat, and Gonggao, an important town in the Bohai Sea.

Great...... There is no danger to defend within a radius of fifty miles, and the west of Gonggao County is really a blessed land for him Zhang Junyi in this life and this life!

No matter how east or west, the end result will not be a little uglier than wiping the neck with a ring knife right now.

The ring knife with open jaws reflects a young face, who is he? He believes in Zhang Junyi, who believes in Mingzhe to protect himself! What will he choose.

Of course, it is to go north, kill horses all the way to Mo County, even if the food is not enough, it is inevitable that you will not meet the villages and townships in the end, and your own battalion soldiers, at least before retreating to Yecheng or Jixian County, your own battalion can be saved. But it's hard to say what will happen in the future.

Lu Yi Gaolan was newly defeated, whether it was a living general who retreated to Yecheng or a familiar general who died in Guanjin, the 30,000 army was gone, and the only thing that General Yan could drive under General Yan was Zhao Yun's more than 20,000 soldiers, even if you count the headquarters of Pan Lingdianwei and others, it is only worth 40,000. It will be difficult for this amount of troops to unify Hebei this year, and it will take more than half a month to transfer from Yecheng to Bohai alone, and the battle will come before winter is fought.

Wait until next year, Yuan Shao, who is recuperating and recuperating, will make a comeback, and Jizhou will have to fight.

"Captain, all the sergeants are ready, where are we heading?"

The soldier bowed his head and raised his hand north in silence in response...... He decided that no matter how many enemies there were on both sides, he did what he had to do, and it was enough to connect several cities in the Bohai Sea, with 2,000 troops.

Until he turned over and got on the horse, he opened his jaw and said in a deep voice: "Let's withdraw from the battlefield and return to Mo County." ”

In the eyes of ordinary people, it is not trivial to withdraw from the battlefield, but at this time, it is extremely light from the mouth of the open jaw, and the roads that extend in all directions in the two states of Youji are all remembered by him, and leaving the place is not a problem for him.

It's just that when he rode his horse to the official road, thinking that the only remaining 2,000 remnants of his army would be defeated and leave Gonggao, he looked back to the west, and his face showed indescribable emotions.

If Koji Gaoran died, died in the fire that had ignited last night outside Guanjin Castle, at some point in the distant future, would he regret not turning around today?

If Koji Takaran were alive, staggering away from his pursuers, would he regret not turning around today at some point in the distant future?

The ghost sent the gods, and the jaw opened his jaw and rode his mount onto the official road to the west, and the horse's hooves slowly kicked in the direction of Guanjin City.

"General, that's the west, Guanjin City."

Zhang Jaw turned his head, nodded and slowly raised his arm, and said, "Give the order, let's not go to Moxian, go to Guanjin, and save our two generals...... If they hadn't been steamed by last night's fire. ”

It was precisely because of this turn of his head that Zhang Jaw lost the opportunity to avoid Chun Yuqiong.

When they set foot on the road for a moment, the scouts came to report that they found a large force of soldiers and horses in front of them, under the banner of pure words.
