042 Defending the Castle (1)

On September 27, the temperature plummeted for several days and finally began to erupt, and snowflakes fell in the gloomy sky, fluttering down on this cold morning. Gao Fei and all the Han soldiers changed into the winter clothes that Fu Xie and Gai Xun got from Jing Zhaoyin, and they were covered with iron armor over the winter clothes, and everyone looked very bloated.

It's snowing, which is a good thing in Gao Fei's opinion, and once the snow falls, maybe the rebels in Liangzhou will temporarily stop moving. At noon, there were only a few soldiers on the city wall of Chencang, and the rest were nested in the various barracks that stretched for ten miles behind the urn city and ate a warm meal.

In the county office, Gao Fei was nibbling on the steaming white flour buns, there was a bowl of steaming rice soup on the table in front of him, and pickles were sandwiched in the chopsticks.

"Earthquake?" Goofy speculated in his heart.

After a while, the shaking became more and more violent, and the entire Chen Cang was slightly shaken, and Gao Fei and everyone felt a trace of ominous premonition. With the rapid sound of drums from the urn city at the west gate of Chencang, all the people immediately became alert, it was an enemy attack, and the rebels had attacked.

Gao Fei hurriedly put down the food in his hand, took off his saber from the weapon rack, put on his dragon lance, and ran towards the west gate of Chen Cang quickly, shouting loudly as he ran: "Zilong, Pang De, Xiahou Lan, Li Wenhou come with me, Zhou Cang, Guan Hai, Liao Hua, Lu Heng, quickly take the bow and crossbow to the city wall!" Pei Yuanshao and Bian Xi were ready to rescue at any time, Fu Xie and Gai Xun quickly ordered the army in the east of the city to assemble, and the rebels launched an enemy attack. ”

When the voice fell, Gao Fei had already run out of the county office, and no matter who followed him, he ran to the west gate as fast as he could, and climbed the city tower.

The three hundred archers on the city walls were already full of bows and ready to shoot, their eyes were full of horror, and on the straight mountain road, a group of people under the pressure of black swept the white snowflakes like rolling waves, and the snow was drowned by the black cavalry of the rebels.

"Oops! The marker was flooded with snow. Gao Fei looked at the ground outside the city, it was white, and he couldn't find the range of any of the various weapons that had been arranged yesterday.

The sturdy cavalry rushed along the mountain road, and there was no end in sight, only to see the rebel cavalry pouring out from the bend a few miles away, and the front of the rebel army was getting closer and closer to Chencang. Listening to the sound of horses' hooves and feeling the trembling of the earth, it is not difficult for Gao Fei to calculate the number of enemies.

Soon, the front of the rebels galloped to a position five hundred meters outside Chencang City, where they restrained their horses, and surrounded by thousands of people, Beigong Boyu and two other middle-aged men wearing armor and armor walked to the forefront of the team.

"Master Hou, it's Bian Zhang and Han Sui!" Li Wenhou and Zhao Yun, Pang De, and Xiahou Lan came to the city tower one after another, looking at the galloping appearance of the rebels, no one spoke, until the appearance of Beigong Boyu Li Wenhou pointed to the two men beside Beigong Boyu and said to Gao Fei.

Gao Fei took a closer look at the two people beside Beigong Boyu, the person in the middle had deep sunken eye sockets, the bridge of his nose was high and bulging, a pair of bright eyes were staring at him, and a pair of yellowed goatee hung on his chin, judging from his face, he was a little elegant. The man on the far left was a bearded man with thick eyebrows and big eyes, extremely burly, although he was riding on horseback, his slender legs hung empty in the air, almost touching the ground, making people look extremely uncomfortable, as if the horse under the seat could not support his body.

"Which one is Han Sui?" After Gao Fei looked at the two people, he asked Li Wenhou.

Li Wenhou pointed to the person in the middle and said, "He is Han Sui, and the one on the left is Bian Zhang." ”

Before the people on the city tower could make a move, they saw Beigong Boyu untie a bloody cloth bag from the saddle behind him, threw it forward hard, and fell heavily to the ground, and three human heads rolled out of the cloth bag, and some human heads were still in the bag.

Beigong Boyu took a few steps forward, pointed at Gao Fei on the city tower and shouted, "Gao Fei! You can see clearly, this is the eighteen scouts you sent, and now I'm sending you back, hahaha! ”

Gao Fei was also very puzzled by the sudden arrival of the rebels in the city, and seeing these heads at this moment was enough to explain why there had been no news from Liangzhou in the past few days, and it turned out that they all died in the hands of the rebels. Before he could answer, he heard Beigong Boyu continue to shout towards the city tower: "Li Wenhou, you traitor, I took you as a brother in vain, I didn't expect you to take refuge in the Han army!" You treacherous creature, come down and fight me to the death! ”

Li Wenhou frowned, tightly pressed the saber hanging from his waist, and hugged his fist towards Gao Fei and said: "Master Hou, I also know Beigong Boyu once, we have made an oath together, share weal and sorrow, and now I have betrayed my trust, there must be an explanation between me and Beigong Boyu, and I also ask Hou Ye to allow me to go out of the city to fight." ”

Gao Fei saw that Li Wenhou had already made up his mind, and he didn't stop it, but said softly: "Since your mind has been decided, I won't stop you, please be more careful!" ”

Li Wenhou said "No", then got down from the city tower, rode out of the city alone, came to the city wall, and bowed to Beigong Boyu: "Brother Beigong, I'm here!" ”

As soon as Beigong Boyu saw Li Wenhou come out, he quickly pulled out his scimitar, and without talking, he slapped his horse and took Li Wenhou directly.

Li Wenhou also drew his saber, quickly moved forward, and immediately separated after a round of battle with Beigong Boyu, and shouted on horseback: "Brother Beigong, you and my brother, please listen to me......"

As soon as he was halfway through his words, he saw Beigong Boyu galloping on his horse, and shouted loudly the words "death to the thief".

"Zheng!" Another round was fleeting, and Beigong Boyu was not able to get Li Wenhou at all, and Li Wenhou seemed to be intent on giving in.

Immediately afterwards, Beigong Boyu didn't give Li Wenhou a chance to breathe at all, so he simply jumped off the horse, waved the scimitar in his hand and slashed at Li Wenhou one by one, and Li Wenhou also dismounted, engaged in foot combat with Beigong Boyu, and raised the saber in his hand to block one move at a time.

Li Wenhou shouted while fighting: "Brother Beigong, the reason why you and I want to rebel is not just a fame, now that I have surrendered to the Han army, Marquis Gao is even younger and promising, and he will definitely be able to make a big difference in the court in the future, why don't you ......"

"Phew! A few days ago, you killed more than 9,000 of my people, and you will avenge everything for this revenge, otherwise what face will I have to see my people? How could Goofy escape without you? Since you have submitted to the imperial court, then from now on you are an official, I am now a bandit, officials and bandits are not separated, today either you die or I die. ”

In front of the two armies, Beigong Boyu and Li Wenhou fought inseparably, but in the two armies, the commanders of the two armies had their own different thoughts.

In the rebel formation, Han Sui didn't look at the fight between Beigong Boyu and Li Wenhou at all, he was looking at Chen Cang's city defense, seeing that there were many crossbowmen on the city tower, and the city wall was about two zhang high, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he slowly thought in his heart: "Fortunately, I was prepared!" ”

Bian Zhang, who was beside Han Sui, was watching the fight between Beigong Boyu and Li Wenhou vigorously, and he was surging and gearing up. He couldn't hold back his temperament, turned his head to Han Sui and said, "General Han, Beigong Boyu can't beat Li Wenhou, I don't think there's any need to compare, it's better to let me go." ”

Han Sui and Bian Zhang are both leaders elected by the rebels, and the two can be said to be equals, but the two are still a little different, Han Sui prefers to use stratagem, while Bian Zhang prefers Wu Yong. When Han Sui heard Bian Zhang's words, he said, "General Bian, have you forgotten our agreement?" The battle in Liangzhou is commanded by you, and I will listen to you, but in the battle of attacking Sanfu, you must listen to me, and Sanfu Pass is blocked, and force alone cannot solve the problem. ”

Bian Zhang said: "Then when will I go into battle?" It is said that the Duxiang Marquis Gao Fei is so brave, I want to cut off the head, Liangzhou is not the only one! ”

Han Suiyin laughed twice and said, "What's the hurry, I'll call you when you appear." ”

Bian Zhang no longer spoke, but continued to watch the fight in front of the battle, squinted at Han Sui, and said in his heart: "This old boy, what kind of medicine is sold in the gourd?" ”

On the city tower, Gao Fei could see that in terms of martial arts, Beigong Boyu did not have any roads, and he was completely relying on bravery, while Li Wenhou was different, although Beigong Boyu's offensive was very fierce, but Li Wenhou defended with ease, and was obviously suspected of being humble.

"Master Hou, Li Wenhou deliberately gave in, if it goes on like this, when will he be able to kill Beigong Boyu? The subordinates are not talented, and they are willing to replace Li Wenhou, and take down the head of Beigong Boyu within ten moves! Pound, who was behind Gao Fei, looked at the fight scene off the field, and couldn't bear it in his heart, and he also wanted to make meritorious contributions, so he hugged his fists.

Gao Fei saw that Pound was the same age as him, and he knew the past and the future, so he naturally knew that Pound was also a tiger general, but Pound was young and vigorous, and he couldn't hold his breath. Although he is also eighteen years old, his soul is in his thirties, which also makes him a little more calm and calm in his behavior and work, and does not rely on courage to solve problems, and he has always felt that no matter how high a person's force is, it is also small in front of thousands of troops, which is just like the real Gao Fei he possessed, he actually died of exhaustion on the battlefield, and he will not let such a thing happen a second time, including his subordinates.

He smiled, his eyes sharpened as he looked at the direction where Li Wenhou's feet moved, and the snow on the ground where he passed was forcefully dispersed by Li Wenhou, revealing the surface of the earth. He patted Pang De's shoulder, pointed at Li Wenhou and said slowly: "Ling Ming, what do you think is the difference between Li Wenhou's feet?" ”

Pound looked at it for a long time and didn't notice anything unusual, so he asked, "What's the difference?" ”

Gao Fei said with a smile: "Li Wenhou is not going to have a duel with Beigong Boyu, but to delay time, yesterday I set the range of all defensive weapons, and today the sudden heavy snow will drown those markers, you take a closer look, Li Wenhou has shown some surfaces everywhere he has passed, and those are exactly the places where I set the markers." ”

Pound suddenly realized, and immediately stopped begging Gao Fei to fight, but watched the fight below, thinking that he was still too reckless.
