Chapter 923: Ninety-Forty-One Sanshui County
The family members of Dong Ce's subordinates who stayed here saw their adults and hurriedly came up to pay their respects.
The matter was urgent, Dong Ce didn't have time to say more, waved his hand and said: "I'll talk about it later, let's choose three good war horses first, and give them to this officer, General Cao and General Cao." ”
"Yes."
Those family members responded, and hurriedly selected a few of the best war horses for Dong Ce and the three of them.
Dong Ce and the three of them changed into a good war horse with full physical strength, and they felt the high spirit of the war horse under their crotch, and their mood was also lifted.
"Bring all the horses, let's go." Dong Ce shouted.
Then the large army continued to set off, Dong Ce and his family members followed with empty horses, and whoever couldn't support the war horse could replace it with a new horse to let the original war horse rest. In this way, those soldiers who are exhausted from the war horses under their crotch and can no longer run can certainly get new war horses, and even if they have not changed horses, they know that they can be changed, and their hearts are settled.
Seeing this scene, Cao Wenzhao and Cao Bianjiao were both grateful.
In doing so, Dong Ce not only increased the speed of the team's advance, but also saved a lot of war horses for them. If there were no such horses that could be replaced, I don't know how many horses would be exhausted to death. You must know that in the last years of the Ming Dynasty, war horses were very expensive.
I don't know how long I ran or how far I ran, but in the evening, Dong Ce finally saw the tall city wall of Sanshui County from a distance. When he turned over the hill in front of him and saw the city wall, Dong Ce's eyes were dark, and he almost fainted.
If he hadn't gritted his teeth, he wouldn't even have the strength to sit up straight on his horse. It's just that although the body is extremely tired at this time, the heart is extremely relaxed and joyful. Today's battle is really the most dangerous battle in Dong Ce's life. The disparity between the strength of the enemy and us is really too great, surrounded by tens of thousands of invading troops, and as far as the eye can see, there are knives and guns everywhere, as if they have fallen into a sea of invading troops. There are enemies everywhere in front of you, endless, boundless, kill one, come up with a pair, no matter how you kill, you can't kill them all.
The arms of the killer were sore and sore, and there was no strength in his body, but the enemy was still endless, if it wasn't for gritting his teeth and holding on to his last breath, Dong Ce wouldn't even be able to wait to meet Cao Bianjiao, and he would die in the chaos!
It's just that I finally escaped, escaped!
At this time, not to mention people, even the war horses have no strength, the whole team is moving forward little by little, the war horses are panting, the horses are already soaked, the horses' legs are constantly trembling and trembling, and even some war horses fall directly to the ground on the road, and they can't get up anymore. If it weren't for Dong Ce's preparation of hundreds of horses that could be rotated, he was afraid that there would be more tired war horses. But even so, those horses with full physical strength have been replaced, and there are no more horses.
The intruders who were chasing behind them couldn't even be seen in this matter, and they didn't know how far they had been left behind.
Dong Ce glanced at Cao Bianjiao and Cao Wenzhao next to him, and the three of them looked at each other, all grinning.
Oh my God, I've finally escaped!
They wanted to laugh heartily, but they didn't even have the strength to laugh at this point.
Cao Wenzhao pointed to the blue-black city wall not far away, and said, "Let's go into the city, and after entering the city, thank you Hanchen for saving your life today." ”
Dong Ce smiled: "You're polite, you're polite." ”
As the saying goes, Wangshan runs a dead horse, although the tall city wall of Sanshui County can be seen from a distance, but the soldiers under Dong Ce, Cao Wenzhao, and Cao Bianjiao are really exhausted, and the war horses are really unable to walk. Therefore, this short journey took half an hour to arrive.
When they arrived at the city of Sanshui County, many soldiers fell off their horses as soon as their bodies went limp. Fang Cai's desperate run exhausted their physical strength, and in the process of running, their legs were clamped between the horse's belly, so that many of them were dripping with blood on their inner thighs. They clung to the reins with both hands, fearing that if they accidentally fell off their horses, they would never have a chance to live, and their hands were so stiff that they were not even feeling because they were holding the reins too hard.
At this time, they finally arrived in Sanshui County and came to their own territory, and they were relieved one by one, and they suddenly couldn't hold on.
Dong Ce's situation is actually similar, he feels that the inner thighs are hot, and they must have been worn out, although his hands are still tightly holding the big gun, but in fact, there is no feeling in his hands. His lips were dry and scorched, his throat was dry and about to smoke, and when he swallowed a mouthful of saliva, he only felt a burst of pain in his throat, as if he had been cut by a knife.
He also took care of his majesty and his image as a general, so he didn't fall off the horse. On the other hand, Alatan Ula on the side was suddenly fine. He still sat firmly on the horse's back, his expression was very calm, and he even looked a little leisurely, his thick arms like rafters also waved the wolf in his hand from time to time, it seemed that the fierce battle on the side just now had no effect on him at all, it was like going outside for a walk, taking a walk, relaxed and leisurely.
The armor on his body, which was originally black, had been dyed red at this time, and the blood on it had not dried up, and his whole body was as if he had been splashed with blood, and even his hair and horse were blood-red.
I don't know how many people he killed just now, after all, no one counts, but Dong Ce estimates that one hundred and eighty should be about the same. Looking at Alatan Ula's leisurely appearance, Dong Ce, Cao Wenzhao, and Cao Bianjiao couldn't help but swallow lightly, and secretly said in their hearts: "Is this still a fucking human?" ”
And Cao Wenzhao and Cao Bianjiao were not only emotional, but also envious in their hearts. This Dong Yanshi who suddenly appeared, his troops are extremely elite and needless to say, and there are such a fierce and brave generals who are almost invincible on the battlefield.
It's really envious!
Sanshui County is under the jurisdiction of Xi'an Prefecture, which is actually Guanzhong. At this time, the Chuang army is attacking the city everywhere in the pass, but this place is located in the northernmost part of the entire pass, but it has not been taken down by the Chuang army, and the flag of the Ming Dynasty is still fluttering at the head of the city.
The defenders at the head of the city had already seen this one from afar, and at a glance they knew that the remnants of the army that had just lost the battle were defeated.
There are a lot of defenders on the city, but they also score compared to whom, compared with Dong Ce and others, the number of defenders on the city is a little insufficient, a rough glance, it is only a few hundred. One by one, they hid behind the battlements of the wall, looking this way, with a look of surprise on their faces. But no one asked questions, and no one took the initiative to open the city gate to welcome Dong Ce and the others in.
As soon as they saw this scene, the soldiers under Cao Wenzhao who had just finished the battle stopped doing it. Cao Wenzhao is arrogant and fierce, and he is also very good at fighting, and his subordinates are very arrogant and fierce.
Some of them were short-tempered, and they had already scolded: "Lao Tzu entered your mother, Lao Tzu is also the official army of the Ming Dynasty, fighting bloody battles in front, fighting with the thieves, after withdrawing, how did you treat Lao Tzu?" Hurry up and open the city gate, welcome Lao Tzu and others in, serve and entertain with good wine and meat, and spare your dog's life! Slow down, it's not a big deal to kill you later. ”
was scolded by Cao Wenzhao's department below, and there was a riot above the city, and many people craned their heads to look down, but no one opened the door. At this time, the look of surprise and fear on their faces had disappeared, and they thought that they had determined the identity of the people under the city as officials and soldiers. Since it is an official army, then there is no need to be afraid, after all, in these years, although the army is in chaos, the official army is still an official army after all, and it will not attack the city controlled by the government.
At the beginning, the reason why they were afraid was because they were afraid that the following officers and troops were pretending to be invaders.
Seeing that no one responded from the city, the soldiers who had just scolded were even more furious: "Everyone who entered your mother is fucking deaf and can't hear the words?" ”
As soon as the words fell, a slow voice suddenly sounded on the city: "This official is the magistrate of Sanshui County, who in the city dares to be so presumptuous?" Is it really unorthodox? Believe it or not, this official will go up and kill all these thieves and soldiers! ”
