Xu Chang, the general of the Niuzhu Army, stared in the direction of the south city gate with wide eyes, glaring at the man he thought was a brother in the army, the former general of the Jinling Tianquan Army under Wei Hu's tent, Luo Qing.
"Why? Why?! Luo Qing¡ª¡ª!!"
Xu Chang roared at the top of his lungs. He thought he could catch his breath after Zhou General Liao Li arrived in time to support him, but he never expected that someone would stab them in the back. What was even more unbelievable was that someone stabbed them in the back. The man with the knife was actually the general of the brotherly army of Jinling Tianquan Army.
"" Luo Qing stood at the South City Gate with his arms folded, looking like a general. But it can be seen that he is inevitably a little ashamed in his heart, because the eyes he looks at Ku Yang, Xu Chang and others are obviously flickering and avoiding.
"Is it Wu Heng's order?"
With the support of his close personal guards, Kuyang, who had been sitting on the ground to rest and pant, slowly stood up and asked Luo Qingdao solemnly. Because he was angry, his words clearly contained questions and accusations.
Facing Kuyang¡¯s question, Luo Qing¡¯s eyes became increasingly guilt-ridden. After taking a deep breath, he nodded and said solemnly, ¡°Yes!¡ªWu Shuai told me to do this!¡±
"Wu Shuai?" Kuyang sneered when he heard this, and said sarcastically, "Wu Heng treated you like that, and you still call him Wu Shuai? - Ahu was loyal to him during his lifetime, but what happened? Wu Heng was very casual. The earth will throw away this friendship and mercilessly break up your Tianquan ArmyHave you forgotten all this?!"
After hearing this, Luo Qing shook his head and corrected, "Commander Wu once explained this to me. All the seemingly unfair treatment of our Tianquan Army was designed and laid out to kill you, Kuyang! - - It was you, the dead sheep, who betrayed our Taiping Army first! I believe that even if Commander Wei comes back to life, he will make the same choice as the last general!"
"You guy" Xu Chang was furious and was about to curse, but Kuyang raised his hand to stop him.
"Is it really just design and layout?" Taking a step forward, Ku Yang said seriously, "A few days ago, when I, Ku Yang, led everyone to surrender to Guangling, you were also in the army. You should know that if I, Ku Yang, would have Why did I bring you and others to Guangling if I wanted to join the Zhou army? Wouldn¡¯t it have been better to go straight to the Zhou army at that time?"
"" Luo Qing hesitated for a moment when he heard this, then frowned and said, "Commander Wu once said that it was just your plan to pave the way for surrender to the Zhou army! - It can wipe out our Taiping Army in one fell swoop, and I think you can also gain it from this." The Zhou Dynasty's court pardoned the sins and promoted him to a noble rank, right?"
"You fart!" Xu Chang couldn't bear it any longer. While yelling, he rushed forward with his weapon in hand.
Seeing this, Luo Qing raised his eyebrows and raised his right hand suddenly, holding it high.
In an instant, the Taiping Army and former Jinling soldiers who were with him immediately took a stance to meet the enemy. On the wall of the south city gate that had been captured by them, countless crossbowmen aimed their arrows at Ku Yang, Xu Chang, and the Niuzhu soldiers under their command. The defenders under the city also formed a strong and difficult to break phalanx. . Even Xu Chang was startled by this solemn atmosphere and subconsciously stopped.
Because Xu Chang realized that Luo Qing was not joking. If Xu Chang approached the South City Gate again, this person would definitely order an attack.
"Xu Chang, please be patient! - General Luo Qing, please listen to the words of the dead sheep!"
He stepped forward and patted Xu Chang's shoulder to signal him to calm down. Kuyang looked at Luo Qing and said seriously, "General Luo Qing, our Niu Zhu Army and your Jinling Army have been on the same page for the past three years. Although the former There were some misunderstandings in Jinling these days, but it will not affect the friendship between our two armies"
"Misunderstanding?" Luo Qing chuckled and shook his head slightly.
As if seeing through Luo Qing¡¯s thoughts, Kuyang asked in an incomprehensible tone, ¡°Is it possible that General Luo Qing still thinks that Ahu died because of me, Kuyang?¡±
Luo Qing did not speak. After all, he also knew the whole story. After thinking about it, he said in a deep voice, "It is true that Wei Shuai's death was not your fault, but you, Niu Zhujun, can't completely escape the involvement! - If If your Niu Zhu army was not instigated by Wei Zhuang, why would Commander Wei be harmed by the villain of Wei Zhuang?!"
"Joke!" Before Ku Yang could speak, Xu Chang cursed angrily beside him, "It's all the fault of my Niu Zhu army. Don't you, the Jinling army, have the slightest fault? - You should tell me, I, Niu Zhu Why did the army create chaos in the city at that time?!"
Hearing this, Luo Qing suddenly blushed. After all, it was precisely because the Jinling Army wanted to take over the Niuzhu Army and designed to detain the dead sheep, which made all the Niuzhu Army soldiers so angry that they were used by Wei Zhuang.
"In the final analysis, this incident still happened because of his Jinling Army. However, as a member of the Jinling Army and one of the generals under the Wei Hu tent, how could Luo Qing blame his own side.
? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?After glaring at Xu Chang, Luo Qing became a little angry.
Seeing this, Ku Yang said quickly, "Okay! General Luo Qing, don't be angry for now. - Ku Yang also feels that A Hu died because of me, but what about the two generals Wang Wei and Lu Yong?"
Seeing Ku Yang taking the initiative to rescue him and admitting that Wei Hu's death was related to him, Luo Qing's face became a little brighter with shame. Then, when he heard the names of Wang Wei and Lu Yong, his expression suddenly changed. It got complicated. After hesitating for a long time, he said with insufficient confidence, "Thisthat isthat is Wu Shuaiwei's design and layout"
"For the sake of design and layout, you don't hesitate to abandon loyal soldiers like abandoned sons?" Ku Yang retorted, interrupting Luo Qing's words.
"" Luo Qing was silent when he heard this. Perhaps, he was also slightly dissatisfied and resentful about this, but he just didn't show it.
"Stop it, General Luo Qing!" Sighing, Ku Yang advised him sternly, "Wu Heng is a cunning, cunning, double-dealing person. Don't you and I both know what he has done before? - How did he get the position of commander-in-chief? How did he capture Jiangnan? Why didn't the Zhou army come to pursue him at that time?"
"" Luo Qing frowned.
He was very clear about the profound meaning of Ku Yang's words. In fact, besides him, many generals in the Taiping Army knew this very well. It was simply that Wu Heng betrayed the then Taiping Army Commander-in-Chief Liang Qiuhao and the princess to whom everyone was loyal. Liu Qing, while the first two fought with all their might against the Zhou army, Wu Heng captured the vast Jiangnan area effortlessly.
Capturing the entire Jiangnan area may seem like a great achievement, but once you get to the bottom of it, you will find that there are many scandals that make people feel ashamed.
"Stop it, General Luo Qing!"
While persuading, Ku Yang slowly walked towards Luo Qing. Suddenly, his steps stopped because Luo Qing raised his left hand and spread his fingers to make a gesture to stop him from moving forward.
"Huh!" Under Ku Yang's doubtful gaze, Luo Qing took a long breath and said seriously, "Iis not loyal to Wu Heng, I am only loyal to my General Wei Hu, and only to the two-character banner of 'Taiping' ! - The reason why I stand here is just because I feel that even if General Wei Hu comes in person, he will still stop you, Marshal Kuyang! - The general firmly believes that before General Wei Hu died, he still Maintain your dignity and honor as a Taiping soldier, and because of this you will die without regrets!"
"" Kuyang was moved when he heard this. He originally thought that Luo Qing was just deceived by Wu Heng, but he did not expect that Luo Qing would have such pride in his heart.
[It turned out to be the soldiers brought out by Ahu, with the same arrogance as him]
Kuyang smiled bitterly in his heart, because he had realized that Luo Qing, who could say these words, would never be swayed by his words and surrender.
Thinking of this, Kuyang sighed slightly and murmured, "Yes, if Ahu were here, he would probably be like General Luo Qing and block me here"
Luo Qing couldn't help but feel a bit of warmth in his eyes when he heard this. He slowly put down his right hand that was holding a command, cupped his fist and said in a deep voice, "Break out from somewhere else, Marshal Kuyang! - This south city gate, the general will never do it." We have to give in, even if all of us die in battle! - What is in front of you at this moment is the last strength of my Jinling Army!"
"" Kuyang was moved by this, his eyes widened unconsciously, and goosebumps appeared all over his body. He only felt that Luo Qing and the many former Jinling soldiers under his command erupted with an extremely solemn and tragic momentum, as if they were dead soldiers who regarded death as if they were home, which was inadvertently heartbreaking. Even Xu Chang, who was extremely angry with Luo Qing just now, couldn't curse anymore.
"Back off!" Kuyang whispered to Xu Chang.
Nodding, Xu Chang raised his right hand and waved it. With a bit of unwillingness and a bit of respect for Luo Qing, he shouted in a deep voice, "The whole army retreat slowly and evacuate the city gate!"
"I have the order!" The Niuzhu army slowly retreated.
Seeing this, the generals of Wu Heng's branch of the Taiping Army were anxious, and they all questioned and accused Luo Qing.
"Luo Qing, look what you have done?!"
"Luo Qing, how dare you let the traitor Kuyang go, I will definitely punish Commander Wu when you turn around!"
Among them, one general seemed to want to rush to Luo Qing to question him, but was blocked by the Jinling soldiers and could not get closer.
"Youyou and other mere pawns dare to stop me?!" the general asked in disbelief.
Seeing this, a brave general of the Jinling Army walked out of the queue and said coldly to the general, "Before the end of this battle, the South City Gate will be guarded by our Jinling Tianquan Army. Anyone who dares to approach, whether it is the Taiping Army or the Niu Army, will guard the south city gate." The Zhu army will all be killed without mercy!"
 As soon as he finished speaking, thousands of Jinling soldiers below the city raised their arms and shouted.
"retreat¡ª¡ª!!"
The sound was like thunder, and the general of Wu Heng's army was frightened and retreated continuously.
[Is the Tianquan Army¡¯s last strength? ]
Having no choice but to take his Niu Zhu soldiers to find another way out, Kuyang looked back at Luo Qing.
Seemingly noticing Ku Yang¡¯s gaze back, Luo Qing clasped his fists heavily.
"" Ku Yang was stunned. For some reason, he vaguely saw the figure of Wei Hu appearing behind Luo Qing. The two figures overlapped each other, making Ku Yang feel uneasy for a while.
[It turned out to be the soldiers brought out by Ahuhow similar! ]
The dead sheep sighed. In the underworld, he faintly had a strange feeling, as if the late Wei Hu farewell to his body to the dead sheep by his part.
"Although we are brothers, we are completely different from now on! - Is this what you want to say, Ahu?"
Glancing at the night sky, Ku Yang murmured to himself.
From the side, Xu Chang looked at the dead sheep hesitantly, and after a while he finally couldn't help but ask, "Commander, what should I do now?"
Exhaling, Kuyang sighed softly and said, "The last of my strength The South City Gate is already the most dangerous place in Guangling City. As long as we dare to turn back let's go and join General Liao Li!"
"I have the order!" Xu Chang accepted the order with clasped fists, and immediately sent people to find the location of Liao Li's army.
However, the scouts who came back to report the news said that Liao Lizheng was being attacked by several Taiping troops and was being attacked from both sides.
Hearing this news, Kuyang's color changed slightly and he said urgently to Xu Chang, "Quickly, go to the rescue! - Right now, we are unable to break out of the siege. If General Liao Li fails, we will all be lost in the city. , no bones left!¡±
"Yes!" Xu Chang nodded, and he and Ku Yang immediately led the remaining three or four thousand Niuzhu Army soldiers to the battlefield where Liao Li was. After all, Ku Yang made it very clear that only by joining forces with Liao Li and supporting each other could it be possible to withstand attacks from the Taiping Army from all directions.
In this case, seeing Liao Lijun being violently attacked, how could there be any reason not to save the dead sheep?
The Niu Zhu army hurriedly moved closer to Liao Lijun, secretly praying that Liao Lijun would still be able to fight under the siege of the reinforcements on the east, west and north walls of Guangling City.
However, what surprised Ku Yang and Xu Chang was that when they arrived, they found that Liao Lijun, who was besieged by three armies with over 10,000 troops at the same time, stood firmly like a giant rock at the cross in the center of Guangling City. On the streets, there was no signs of exhaustion.
What is even more unbelievable to Ku Yang and others is that it is said that Liao Li has personally killed several generals, which greatly dampened the vigor of the Taiping Army.
"On the east side, the infantry stepped forward, and the archers climbed up to fire a volley! On the west side, the soldiers listened to the order, the infantry stepped back a hundred steps, and the archers fired a volley! On the north side, the infantry stood by, and the archers stepped back to support the east and west sides. The cavalry was divided into a hundred people. As a team, retreat three hundred steps to the south, stand ready, and be ready to attack at any time!"
In the center of the army, Liao Li sat astride a war horse and directed the war in three directions at the same time. He was still orderly and without any mistakes. Using the houses on both sides of the street as cover, he actually suppressed the three Taiping reinforcements. Fierce offensive.
"How did this guy do it? - Command three battles at the same time?" Xu Chang rubbed his eyes and was dumbfounded.
"It's intuition" After all, Kuyang was more knowledgeable than Xu Chang. He squinted his eyes and murmured.
"Intuition?" Xu Chang glanced at the dead sheep in confusion, and immediately praised sincerely, "One person can command three battles at the same time, and even so, he can suppress the three opposing parties. Is that guy really a human? Is he a monster? ?¡ª¡ªCan it really be done?¡±
"With the help of the terrain you have already issued the tactics to deal with the enemy before they change their formations, and you are ahead of the enemy every time, so that the enemy loses all the opportunities and is defeated! - As long as you can do these things, you can do it Arrive!" Kuyang slowly revealed the secret of Liao Li's ability to suppress the enemy's three sides.
But he was surprised, and Ku Yang was not as rude as Xu Chang. After all, Ku Yang had also met heroes such as Liang Qiu Hao and Liang Qiu Wu.
Suddenly, his expression changed slightly, because he noticed that Liao Li, who was directing his troops to fight on three sides in the distance, suddenly turned back to look at him, and then leaned over and said something to the guard beside him.
"While commanding the war in three directions at the same time, can you still detect our arrival in time? ¡ª¡ªWhat an amazing and terrifying intuition! ]
??Kuyang, who had remained calm just now, was really frightened this time, because in his eyes, this Zhou Army general named Liao Li was simply invulnerable.
It can only be said that Kuyang and Xu Chang have never seen with their own eyes the ability of General Zhenlei of the White Water Army under King Li Shen of Qin. That great hero in the world can be called impeccable. He has left Xie An and Liu Qing helpless several times, and The fierce generals in the Jizhou army were also played by him. Compared with Zhen Lei, although Liao Li has gradually revealed his talents, to be honest, he is still far behind. It can only be said that there is no general in the Taiping Army who can compete with Liao Li, or even just resist Liao Li. The level difference between the two sides is too great. After all, Liao Li had changed a bit because of Qi Zhi's incident, and even Fei Guo and Ma Dan might not be able to win.
Not long after, Ku Yang¡¯s guess was verified. As expected, a Zhou Army cavalry came over to invite Ku Yang and others.
Following the cavalryman, Ku Yang and Xu Chang came to Liao Li's side. Only then did Ku Yang realize how noisy and noisy the place where Liao Li was was, with deafening shouts coming from all directions. It's hard to imagine how Liao Li managed to stay ahead of his opponents and seize the opportunity amid all the noise.
"The south city gate is lost, right, uncle?" Liao Li asked calmly without looking back, still watching the battle in three directions.
Kuyang was slightly embarrassed when he heard this, and said sarcastically, "Kuyang is very talented and has little knowledge. He didn't notice Wu Heng's sinister intentions earlier" After saying that, Kuyang mentioned Wu Heng's previous plot against him in the name of expanding the Niuzhu Army and his subsequent plans. Tianquan Army general Luo Qing briefly told Liao Li about his defection.
After saying these things, Kuyang was suddenly stunned, because he found that there was no trace of surprise on Liao Li's face. When he thought about it carefully, he became even more surprised and couldn't help but ask, "Obviously half of his subordinates are Cavalry, but the general did not attack the whole city, but chose to defend here Could it be that the general has already noticed everything?"
"" Glancing at the withered sheep, Liao Li said calmly, "If he had been aware of everything, Liao should have killed that Heavenly Power Army just now! - He just heard the sound of fighting coming from the south! "
[Just because I heard the sound of fighting coming from the south, I immediately judged that the South City Gate was at fault, and immediately changed my strategy from attack to defense, so as not to go too deep into the enemy's hinterland and find it difficult to escape, and not be able to calmly dispatch troops and horses This What an intuition! ]
Kuyang was secretly frightened. After thinking about it, he couldn't help but ask, "Right now, both your army and ours are besieged here by the Taiping Army. I wonder if General Liao has any clever tricks to break the siege?"
"Stay!" Liao Li said calmly, "Wait for reinforcements!"
"My brother-in-law's reinforcements?" Kuyang asked in confusion.
"Liao is not a candidate to cooperate with my uncle. It's just that after defeating Mu Guang, Liao plans to come to Guangling to see if there is any opportunity In less than an hour, your Excellency will definitely lead The army has arrived!¡±
"An hour?" Kuyang couldn't laugh or cry, because in his opinion, he and Liao Li would probably be dead in an hour.
But at this moment, Liao Li smiled strangely and whispered, "That's why we have to try to save ourselves! - To be honest, my uncle, Liao has been waiting for something that can change our predicament. The big fish took the bait"
[A big fish that can change our predicament? ]
Thinking about it carefully, Kuyang realized that Liao Li was referring to Wu Heng, the fourth-generation commander-in-chief of the Taiping Army, a rebel leader who could really change their current embarrassing predicament!
[I see! No wonder Liao Li was not in a hurry to find another way to break out from the city gate in other directions after he noticed what happened at the south city gate. It turned out that he was waiting for Wu Heng to come here in person so that he could capture Wu Heng and end the battle in one fell swoop. fighting! ¡ª¡ªIt¡¯s so arrogant and so crazy! ]
Although the skilled man was bold, Kuyang was still shocked by Liao Li's audacity. He was immersed in the crazy and bloody atmosphere of the battlefield here, and a layer of cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
"Shh!" As if he had guessed Kuyang's concerns, Liao Li calmly put his right index finger upright on his mouth, made a small gesture, and then said with a strange smile, "No, that big The fish is hooked!" As he said that, he turned his head and looked to the east.
Following Liao Li's line of sight, Kuyang observed carefully, and then noticed that the ratio of Taiping soldiers on the east side had become orderly. He vaguely seemed to see Wu Heng, although it was only fleeting. figure.
"Excuse me, brother-in-law, please command the soldiers for Liao. Liao will come as soon as you go!" With his gun in the horse's belly, Liao Li didn't wait for the dead sheep to respond. He led the cavalry group beside him, which only had more than 20 riders, towards him. Killed thousands of Taiping troops on the east side.
[Is this guy crazy? ! ]
Ku Yang was stunned. He had vaguely guessed why Liao Li was so powerful. However, his brother-in-law Xie An, Ku Yang, had never reused him as the commander of the army. Because this sharp blade is sharpened so sharply that it breaks easily!
