The incident happened suddenly, and Zhuang Jiang did not react. After a moment, he subconsciously stepped forward, trying to grab his robe, but in the end he was still a step too late. The two figures hugging each other walked out of the city like this.
The head fell, like a flying goose flying from the sky.
Of course, it wasn't just these two people. Not long after they fell, they crashed into the ladder set up on the city. The entire ladder suddenly shook violently. The three or four people clinging to the ladder were ready to follow their companions up to the city at any time.
The taxi soldiers jumped down from the ladder in panic, but they fell straight down from this height, and there was no good fruit to eat.
"The Fourth Brother is directly treating himself as a barbarian..." One of the shield players had tears in his eyes. It was obvious that he was his brother Pao Ze who was in the same camp as him and he was very familiar with him on weekdays.
, "The fourth child... he was an orphan, his parents died in the war, and he didn't even know his last name, so he just... died like this!"
"What a man peeing like a horse!" General Zhuang said in a cold voice with dissatisfaction, "The fourth man has killed at least two or three barbarians, let alone maimed three or four barbarians. In addition to the previous killings,
The bloody revenge of his parents has been avenged, and he will die without regrets!"
After a pause, General Zhuang looked around. A famous soldier wiped away his tears. His eyes were no longer blurry, but with strong murderous intent. General Zhuang nodded with satisfaction and said loudly:
"Brothers, the enemy is outnumbered and we are outnumbered. It is not enough for us to kill one. If we want to kill him, just like the fourth child, kill several of him! For the sake of our parents, wives and children who cannot withstand the flames of war, we have no room to retreat!"
"Kill!" Every soldier shouted, and the roar burst out from their chests, accompanied by hot blood.
For the fourth child who just died in the battle, for all the brothers Paoze who fought bloody battles on this city wall, for the parents and fellow villagers who are still waiting for his return, for the dignity of fighting as a man, and for the side that has not moved since the beginning of the war.
Flag!
These soldiers who have received little education may not know their country or nation, but they know very well that they are a man and a man. As long as they are alive, they have responsibilities and obligations, just like nails.
Stick to this Zhangshan County!
Anyone who wants to pass through here must step on their flesh and blood and corpses!
At this point, the good man can only fight to the death!
——————————————-
There was no light on the official road in the dark night. The moon in the sky was obscured by black clouds. It was the darkest time and the wind was high. No one knew whether this meant that a heavy rain was about to come, or whether it was tonight.
It's a good time to kill.
"Hurry, everyone behind, follow up!" A battle leader held a torch and shouted loudly in the darkness. On the official road, which was not wide because of the overgrown weeds, rows of soldiers hurried forward, but they did not
Carrying a lot of large baggage, he was just rushing forward desperately.
Pei Zilie stood on a hillside with his brows furrowed. In the darkness ahead, there were only dots and dapples of firelight telling him where the team was marching. In order to avoid attracting the enemy's attention, and to save time now, Pei Zilie stood on a hillside.
With the least time in his hands and the most precious time, Pei Zilie did not ask everyone to hold up torches, but only asked the generals and commanders to use torches to guide his subordinates.
"Where are we?" Pei Zilie turned around and asked one of the guards beside him. The guard hurriedly spread out the map. Pei Zilie glanced at it through the weak firelight, and then turned to look at the undulating mountains in the surrounding darkness.
Looking into his eyes, he couldn't help but frown.
This place is not far from Zhangshan County. To the west is the rolling Jingshan Mountain with no end in sight, to the east is the Mianshui River where the sound of waves can be vaguely heard, and the official road, which is not wide in the first place, is uneven in several places.
It winds between the hills and looks even more slender.
If Pei Zilie were given 5,000 men, he would have the guts to catch the enemy by surprise here.
The fire at the front has begun to turn sideways, indicating that the team is passing through this winding and narrow road.
"Stop!" Although he didn't know why, this rugged terrain always gave Pei Zilie an ominous premonition.
Although there is no news from Zhangshan County yet, at least the scouts have not reported any bad news, which means that the possibility of Zhangshan County being in the hands of their own family is still very high, so the Northern Zhou barbarians suddenly appeared on this road.
The possibility of an ambush is theoretically almost zero, but the sixth sense honed by many years of fighting on the battlefield always makes Pei Zilie feel a little uneasy.
Orders were being passed forward one by one, and the five thousand soldiers who had formed a long queue on the road in order to march quickly were slowly coming to a stop.
Pei Zilie's gaze extended along the entire road to Zhangshan County. This is a rare dangerous place on the official road from Jiangling to Zhangshan County and then to Xiangyang. The rest of the road is flat and plain, and the enemy may not be able to set up an ambush.
So simple.
Pei Zilie's eyes did not stay too long on Zhangshan County, but turned around again and fell into the vast mountains. Although he had never been to Jingshan, and the outline on the map was not very detailed, Pei Zilie still discovered it.
There are several villages and towns dotted like stars in Jingshan Mountain.
The existence of villages and towns means that no matter whether they are wide, narrow or rugged, there will definitely be roads.
Of course, Pei Zilie did not expect to be able to pass a large army on such a mountain road, but it was not impossible for the enemy to use a light force to pass through the mountains and rush to the south of Zhangshan County to block the reinforcements. Pei Zilie might not be able to say the name of the encirclement point for reinforcements.
came out, but he knew this truth very well.
After all, in Luliang not long ago, Wu Mingche tempted the enemy to use the tactic of adding fuel to the enemy and desperately dispatching reinforcements, which was to encircle the point for reinforcements.
At that time, Wu Mingche surrounded Pengcheng. After a series of oppressive attacks to no avail, he simply assumed the posture of approaching the city. As expected, the Northern Qi and Northern Zhou Dynasties sent troops in a steady stream and defeated them one by one for Wu Mingche. If it weren't for the large number of troops under Wang Gui's command,
Wu Mingche had to retreat. I'm afraid there is still a stalemate in Luliang!
If Wu Mingche could pull off this trick, then Yuchi Jiong would naturally be able to pull it off as well.
Pei Zilie looked intently at the boundless black wilderness and hills around him. These hills were like dormant giant beasts. Pei Zilie didn't know when they would open their bloody mouths and swallow up these ants and mayflies.
"General, what should we do next?" A guard flew down the hillside and ran up quickly, "The forwards are still waiting for orders!"
Pei Zilie said in a deep voice: "How long has it been since our scout came back?"
The guard frowned and said hurriedly: "It must have been half an hour, something seems to be wrong... We haven't used scouts to explore many places. Logically speaking, we should have come back a long time ago. What now...
··”
Just when the surrounding generals looked at each other in surprise, a ray of fire suddenly rose up in the darkness of the sky and pierced the sky!
This is the fire arrow that scouts in the army always use to convey orders, and its meaning is very clear: there is an urgent need and there are enemies ahead!
Although Pei Zilie didn't know why his scouts ran so far away, he knew very well that this was definitely not the enemy's fire arrow. This was his family's warning to his army that there were probably enemies ahead.
