"They are our soldiers, they are indeed our soldiers."
Huang Bai murmured softly. As the distance got closer, he could see the soldiers running on horseback from outside the city more clearly. Through the telescope, Huang Bai saw that the soldiers were in ragged clothes, with blood stains on their clothes that had long dried up, and their faces were covered with blood. There were stains on the soldier's face, and there was a heavy look of tiredness on the soldier's face, as if he hadn't slept for a long time.
After the soldier came to the city, his body was swaying as if it could be blown by a gust of wind. He looked up at the city tower and shouted: "General Huang, General Hu is on the way to Xiaoshui County, and now he is facing Li Zhen's army. The pursuit, please save General Huang..."
At this point, the soldier tilted his body and fell directly from his horse.
After he fell to the ground, there was no sound.
Huang Bai saw this and ordered: "Quick, bring the people in first."
The captain immediately ordered the soldiers to open the city gate, and then brought back the soldier who fell to the ground. Huang Bai asked the soldiers to ask a military doctor to treat the fallen soldier. After questioning, the military doctor replied: "General Huang, this soldier is suffering from long-term illness." Without rest, coupled with the fatigue of traveling long distances, I passed out and fell to the ground. Take a good rest and you will recover soon."
After hearing this, Huang Bai asked the soldiers to send the military doctor away.
The captain stood next to Huang Bai and asked: "General, what should we do?"
Huang Bai sighed softly and said helplessly: "What else can I do? Of course I have to save Hu Zhiguang. Is it possible to watch him being killed by Li Zhen? After all, he is a brother in a trap."
Huang Bai had no doubts about the news reported by the soldiers.
The reason is, of course, that the soldier who reported the news was so exhausted that it must be true. Huang Bai paused and ordered: "Gather all the soldiers, we will withdraw from Xiaoshui County, and meet Hu Zhiguang first, and then go Meet the general at Nanming Pass, there is no need to continue guarding here."
"yes,."
The captain nodded in agreement and turned around to prepare.
In less than an hour, all the soldiers in the city were assembled, then opened the city gate and killed the city. The army ran along the official road to Xingyang County, and Huang Bai sent a team of soldiers to rescue Hu Zhiguang first, and then , Huang Baicai followed closely with his army and went to meet Hu Zhiguang.
The army rushed quickly. When the army led by Huang Bai finally saw the fleeing Hu Zhiguang army after spending an hour and a half, Huang Bai breathed a sigh of relief and ordered to speed up.
Finally, I saw this guy.
At this moment, Huang Bai could already see that Hu Zhiguang was covered by the vanguard soldiers from before. At the same time, behind these soldiers were Li Zhen's troops who were roaring to kill.
When Huang Bai was less than a hundred meters away from Hu Zhiguang's army, he realized something was wrong.
Because the soldiers around Hu Zhiguang did not look tired after a long-distance attack.
The next moment, Huang Bai opened his eyes wide. He saw that the soldiers under Hu Zhiguang who were rushing in front raised their guns and pointed them at his soldiers. They launched a brazen attack. The gunfire sounded and bullets were fired continuously. Huang Bai The soldiers under his command who were running at the front were directly beaten into a sieve.
"Sure, I fell into a trap."
Huang Bai's complexion changed drastically, and he felt like he had been tricked.
"boom,."
Huang Bai's head hurt, and he felt like the back of his head had been cut through. Before he could turn around, his eyes suddenly darkened.
"boom,."
There was a muffled sound, Huang Bai fell to the ground, and a pool of blood flowed from his head.
The shooter was the person who had gone to Xiaoshui County to report the news. He had a pistol in his hand. He approached and shot Huang Bai. The soldier raised his gun and shouted: "Huang Bai is dead, and those who surrender will not be killed." After the words came out, the surroundings suddenly became chaos. In addition, the ones who kept coming were actually Li Zhen's troops. Huang Bai's army collapsed instantly, and the morale of the military completely collapsed.
In fact, after the soldier woke up, he began to think about how to kill Huang Bai.
Even if he died, he would take down the yellow cypress.
Now that Huang Bai is dead, things are much easier to handle. However, Huang Bai never figured out until his death why he suddenly encountered Li Zhen's army. Especially, the soldiers he trusted so much who came to report the news turned out to be soldiers under Li Zhen's command. He fainted on purpose, and the vanguard sent by Huang Bai had been completely wiped out by Li Zhen's army, and then the current situation emerged.
Once Huang Bai died, no one even went to kill the person who shot Huang Bai.
Some fled, while others knelt down and surrendered.
The battle ended in a very short time.
Li Zhen took more than 2,000 prisoners in his custody and headed towards Xiaoshui County. On the way, Li Zhen ordered as he walked: "Chen Yucheng, immediately close the checkpoints leading to Nanming Pass from Xiaoshui County to prevent The news of Huang Bai's murder has been leaked. After this battle, our next plan will also begin, and we cannot let Xi Changzhen know about it for the time being."
"yes."
After receiving the order, Chen Yucheng took a battalion of soldiers to take the lead.
When Li Zhen escorted the prisoners to Xiaoshui County, all the Eight-Nation Allied Forces looked at Li Zhen blankly.
That expression was like looking at a monster.
After a little while, Huang Bai was actually killed. It was so weird.
The soldiers of the Eight-Nation Allied Forces were all speculating and wondering how Li Zhen defeated Huang Bai. They looked at Li Zhen with awe and fear of Li Zhen. When Russell saw Li Zhen, he was afraid of Li Zhen in his heart. Another addition was added, as if he had seen the scene where they were tortured by Li Zhen again in the past. Adams took a step back and stood in the crowd, not facing Li Zhen head-on.
Li Zhen said: "Everyone, Xiaoshui County has been resolved. Now you are satisfied."
Gobad was curious and asked: "President, how did you capture Xiaoshui County? We spent a lot of effort, but we were still blocked by Huang Bai outside the city, but you sent troops and solved it easily. Xi Changzhen."
Li Zhen smiled faintly, with an unwavering expression on his face. He did not feel complacent because of the victory. He said unhurriedly: "The reason for the victory is actually very simple. I sent someone pretending to be a soldier who escaped from Xingyang County to invite Huang Bai out of the city. Rescue, and then Huang Bai led all his troops out of the city. I then set up an ambush and ambushed Huang Bai, and everything was over. You say, isn't this very simple?"
"Snapped,."
The slap sounded, and Russell couldn't help but slap himself.
Li Zhen felt funny in his heart, but asked: "Mr. Russell, why did you slap yourself for no reason?"
Naturally, Russell would not admit it and said, "President Li misunderstood. I was just trying to fight mosquitoes."
"Yes, yes, fight mosquitoes."
Li Zhen smiled and took the Eight-Nation Allied Forces, his own soldiers, and the escorted prisoners into the county seat of Xiaoshui County. After entering the county seat, Li Zhen rested in the city for a day, and then sent People summoned Chen Yucheng, Li Xiucheng, Gobard, Ma Hui, Rahel, Adams and others to discuss the next arrangements.
The next day, the army left Xiaoshui County and headed towards Nanming Pass.
