chun jie di xiao long
Chapter 529 Old Geezer
This wasn't Zheng Boye deliberately putting on an act; he was genuinely exhausted.
He had been hacking and slashing for so long, and even possessed by the magic pill midway through. It was already remarkable that he hadn't collapsed by now.
Even the Sword Saint's clothes were stained with blood, a testament to the excruciating nature of the battle.
Tired,
He truly was tired,
But he couldn't afford to fall asleep.
At least,
Zheng Boye knew in his heart that he still needed to exert his influence.
Once the war started, tens of thousands of lives on both sides were caught in its wake. From the bottom up, no one was spared. Everyone was straining every nerve for that final outcome;
It was either you die or I die, with no ambiguous middle ground to choose from.
No matter how tired, how exhausted,
He had to keep pushing through.
His previous counterattack was him using the commander's carriage and his own golden armor to forcibly rally the central army and the routed troops to push back. Now, although Jin Shuke's divine move had caused his Chu soldiers to begin to collapse, the battle, or rather, the overall situation, hadn't truly reached its conclusion yet.
The slaughter and fierce fighting would have to continue for some time.
But with the dawn already breaking, the momentum had actually been reversed under such circumstances. Now, unless the Chu people had another fresh force to deploy, the longer they lingered outside the Eastern Mountain Fort, the more awkward their situation would become.
Ultimately, it was a pattern of the Yan being strong and the Chu being weak. That Great Chu Pillar of State had nearly achieved a turnaround with a surprising move, but as long as Zheng Boye held on here and caught his breath, the surprising move was destined not to last.
Although, even if this battle was won, it was destined to be a pyrrhic victory for Zheng Boye, but it was still worth it.
Whether the cost of victory was worth paying depended on the level of the opponent: the Great Chu royal forbidden army, plus that Pillar of State and that Fire Phoenix banner.
No matter how you calculated it,
It was a gain!
"Escort the Boye into the fort!"
"Escort the Boye into the fort!"
The horses that had been pulling the commander's carriage had nearly all been killed or had fled during the previous chaotic fighting, but that didn't matter. A group of Yan soldiers began to use their own strength to push the commander's carriage forward.
The "Zheng" banner still fluttered,
And the figure in golden armor on the commander's carriage, even just sitting there, gave people a sense of immense greatness.
Pushing the commander's carriage forward might seem like a waste of a small portion of manpower on the tense battlefield, but how should one put it? That little bit of manpower really didn't count for much in the overall battlefield.
It was like doing business; you had to invest capital first before you could expect a return.
The change in the situation in the central route, plus the commander's carriage moving forward again, was equivalent to telling all the other troops on the field:
Counterattack,
Starting now!
Zheng Boye had always had Liang Cheng by his side, not to mention that he had also received special tutoring from the Jingnan King. Naturally, he also had his own understanding of the current battlefield situation.
The most difficult time had passed,
The Chu people's tactic of dividing their forces like peeling an onion to find a solution in the central route and deliver a final blow, while creating a great advantage for the Chu people for a long time, was now also digging a grave for themselves in advance.
After Jin Shuke led that cavalry to break through this route, he immediately personally carried the banner and rushed out again, followed closely by a group of Yan cavalry who had also quickly disengaged from the battle.
Even further away, all the Yan cavalry who were riding horses and had previously been fighting on their own also instinctively gathered under his banner.
Once upon a time, Jin Shuke was just a member of the original convict soldiers. His background could be said to be as low as it could be. At the beginning, he couldn't even speak Xia language.
When Zheng Boye entered Green Willow Fort and went south to carry out a war adventure, he accompanied Zheng Boye to kill his way into a Qian people's fortress. That fortress was more like a "chicken coop."
That night, Jin Shuke noticed a detail, which was that when Zheng Boye's gaze swept over these barbarians who were revealing their instinctive desire for women, there was a hint of gloom.
Therefore, Jin Shuke, who later became the city gate guard captain, insisted on marrying a wild woman even though he had the opportunity to do otherwise.
No one was born a fool, and even a fool could still distinguish between beauty and ugliness.
In Sheng Le City, wild women were the most lowly slaves, and in the red tents, they were also the cheapest.
Jin women were obviously cleaner and had better skin. All things considered, for a barbarian to marry a Xia woman was something worth boasting about.
But Jin Shuke still didn't choose to do so, just because of that hint of displeasure that Zheng Boye revealed by the campfire that night.
As a wolf in the wolf pack, paying attention to and observing the wolf king's preferences was nothing to be ashamed of, and it wasn't disgraceful at all.
Now, this once unknown little person, who hadn't died in the fighting and consumption of the desert convict tribe, hadn't died in Zheng Boye's command in one war adventure after another, had finally endured until now, and it was his turn to forcibly change the course of this battle for the wolf king with his own strength.
It was just a pity that at this time, Jin Shuke had no intention of enjoying the excitement and afterglow of his own transformation at all, because he still had many things to do, and he had to continue to be busy.
Under his leadership, that cavalry repeatedly interspersed, repeatedly patrolled, and repeatedly plunged into a battlefield. He was like a link, forcibly revitalizing the entire battlefield that had been divided into multiple parts.
At the same time, he was also like a knife, often stabbing into the most uncomfortable places for the Chu people. Although it was only a superficial touch, it made the Chu people bleed incessantly.
Then, accompanied by the commander's carriage moving faster and faster, accompanied by the Yan army forming an advantage in local battles in all aspects, accompanied by the Chu people's will to fight being reduced layer by layer, and finally, accompanied by the troops from the three military villages guarding the home in the rear rushing over.
The overall situation of the Chu people,
Began to completely collapse!
Winning or losing ultimately depended on this one breath. If the other side had been holding on, and you hadn't followed up, then you could only endure this bitter ending.
Shi Yuantang was still standing in the war chariot. He wasn't exasperated, and he didn't stomp his feet and curse. Around him, there were several groups of Chu troops who had arrived earlier and many who had collapsed later.
He had lost,
He had been defeated,
This Chu Pillar of State let out a long sigh.
Half an hour ago, he was actually full of confidence, only thinking that the Great Yan Pingye Boye on the opposite side was too young.
In fact, even now, he still felt that that Pingye Boye was too aggressive, not the way of a commander.
He still believed that that Boye's choice not to temporarily withdraw his troops but to go against the tide was an extremely irresponsible war adventure.
Even though,
He had lost.
But the Yan people had won by luck, and he had lost by luck.
And the fact was,
The Yan people, who were originally the attacking side, already occupied most of the advantage, but in the end, they still relied on this kind of life-gambling method to win narrowly.
In Shi Yuantang's view,
Why bother?
How could the major affairs of the military and the state be handled so impulsively?
What he didn't know was that the Pingye Boye on the opposite side was actually just simply impulsive;
What he didn't know even more was that in that Boye's eyes, the so-called major affairs of the military and the state were really not as important as a sentence: I'm happy.
Shi Yuantang sat back in his chair. The soldier controlling the war chariot glanced back at his own Pillar of State, hesitated for a moment, and then chose to drive the war chariot to break through.
Eastern Mountain Fort, he couldn't go back.
If the Chu army could have defeated the Yan army's central route as expected and won this moment, then naturally there would have been plenty of time to calmly clean up the Yan people on the Eastern Mountain Fort city wall in the rear.
But now, that city wall had been completely captured by the Yan people. Although the Yan people hadn't had time to completely control Eastern Mountain Fort, if he returned to the city at this time, even if he did return, the Yan army would soon be able to kill their way in.
It was nothing more than locking himself in a smaller cage and waiting for the Yan people to catch him, so why bother?
As for breaking through,
Shi Yuantang didn't hold out any hope, because the battle here had been going on for so long, and the commotion was so great. It was naturally impossible to say that the other Yan troops in the vicinity had no reaction and no awareness.
Although it was impossible for them to send reinforcements to rush here so quickly, it wouldn't be a big problem for them to come and help intercept him after he had broken out.
In the end, it was still because south of Zhennan Pass, after Yangshan Village was broken through, the Chu people had completely lost their ability to conceal the battlefield, and they had also lost the so-called initiative in the war.
Shi Yuantang silently took off his helmet. He didn't give any instructions about how his subordinates would lead him to escape or where they would escape to. He just silently began to comb the white hair on his temples with his fingers.
On the battlefield,
Not only Jin Shuke was pulling the strings, but soon, Liang Cheng also organized a troop, raised a banner, and began to coordinate the overall situation in the same way.
After experiencing the most difficult tug-of-war, the Yan people's own characteristics determined their huge advantage in a smooth situation, especially when facing enemies who had already collapsed.
……
On the commander's carriage,
Zheng Boye closed his eyes, but his ears were still listening to the surrounding movements.
He really wanted to sleep, but he didn't dare to really fall asleep. His consciousness began to gradually wander in a daze.
He could hear the breathing of the soldiers pushing the commander's carriage around him, and he could also hear the screams in the distance. He could use this to judge the situation directly in front of him.
It should be very good,
And he should be able to really fall asleep.
He bit the tip of his tongue,
And forcibly roused some more energy,
Opened his eyes,
With a hint of haziness and confusion,
And carefully swept around,
The Yan people's banners were still fluttering, and the Chu people's banners could hardly be seen anymore.
A Ming searched his body for any remaining small weapons and said:
"Master, take a nap if you're tired. In this subordinate's opinion, the situation has been settled. A Cheng has also risen up. With him and Jin Shuke, the Chu people won't be able to stir up any waves."
Zheng Boye's eyelids immediately drooped down when he heard this.
The Sword Saint, who was sitting cross-legged and meditating, then said, "That archer in the Chu army might not be dead yet."
Zheng Boye's eyelids forcibly propped themselves up again when he heard this.
"Are there any pills left?" Zheng Boye asked A Ming.
A Ming reached out and felt around, found a small bottle, and said, "Fortunately, this bottle didn't break."
The bottle contained the pills that Xue San had made in Xuehai Pass. They didn't have the effect of immortality. They combined several kinds of herbs, and even minerals and certain metallic components.
The effect was comparable to wushisan (Cold-Food Powder), but the side effects weren't that great. Of course, eating too much of it would definitely cause problems with the body, but occasionally taking one to forcibly boost one's spirits and squeeze out one's potential wouldn't be a big problem.
After all, people in later generations all knew that heavy oil, heavy spice, and heavy salt were bad for the body, but they still happily ate skewers?
The pills were red. Zheng Boye put them in his mouth and swallowed them.
The Sword Saint saw this and said, "It's best not to eat this stuff if you can help it."
Every strong expert who cultivated was very persistent in maintaining and cherishing their body. The Sword Saint was like this, and Tian Wujing was also like this.
Old Tian had also told Zheng Boye that tobacco was bad for his body.
Zheng Boye, who had taken the pill, smiled and said, "I don't usually eat it. It's just that I have to finish things now. After this battle is completely over, I'll take a big sleep for three days and three nights."
The effect of the pill was extremely good. Zheng Boye's spirits quickly recovered, and he even had a strange excitement.
One military order after another was issued from Zheng Boye's side. In fact, they weren't any guiding opinions for the battle situation, but rather a readjustment of each area. Even if the commander didn't say it, the generals in each area should know to do it this way as long as their brains weren't stupid.
Zheng Boye was also clear about this;
But the reason why he still had people forcibly convey the orders once was actually to tell them that their Boye was still doing well, and it served to reassure the army.
And right now, along with the collapse of the Chu people, there were only two places left that could really be considered a battlefield.
One place was that the collapsing Chu people began to flee to the Eastern Mountain Fort instinctively. In their view, inside the city walls was the safest place. What they wanted most urgently now was a sense of security.
Jin Shuke was leading his troops to chase them from behind, like a wolf herding a flock of sheep, and the northern gate of the Eastern Mountain Fort was opened first at this time, attracting a large number of Chu people to flee here. Then, the city gate was closed mercilessly.
This opening and closing could be said to have crushed and then opened the Chu people's hearts.
Most of the Chu people who fled here completely lost hope and simply knelt on the ground, surrendering and begging for their lives.
A small number of them planned to run to the side, some wanted to continue entering the city through other city gates, they were extremely stubborn, and some wanted to leave this area and run as far as possible.
But the Yan people, who had finally passed the most difficult moment and began a major counterattack, finally had the opportunity to show their archery skills on horseback. For them, these Chu people who were trying to escape were nothing more than another hunting game.
And unlike Zheng Boye, whose body had been forcibly created by the magic pill, for ordinary soldiers, when victory was right in front of them, their extremely excited spirits could help them ignore the fatigue on their bodies at this time. On the other hand, for the Chu people, the emotion of despair would aggravate their current physical burden.
The so-called hunting was nothing more than a one-sided slaughter. For those Chu people who were unwilling to surrender, the Yan army's knives would naturally not show any mercy.
And how fierce the Chu people's offensive had been earlier, how badly the Yan people had been suppressed earlier, and now, how heavy the anger in everyone's hearts was.
If Jin Shuke hadn't ordered them not to start a massacre, those Chu people kneeling and begging for their lives might have been harvested by these Yan soldiers who had already been killed.
It was right not to kill prisoners in this battle. Of course, you couldn't say that the Jingnan King's order to kill prisoners under Jade Plate City was wrong.
Because if they hadn't killed prisoners at that time, the Chu people would have had an extra elite Azure Luan Army and a young and strong Pillar of State during the Yan-Chu War.
The last time Zheng Boye broke through Yangshan Village, he captured a lot of Bai Pu soldiers. The Jingnan King sent people to take a lot of them away, and they were sent back to various military fortresses and even Zhennan Pass in batches. The purpose of this was to tell the Chu people that if they surrendered in this battle, they could still survive.
If they really forced the Chu people to defend with all their heart, then the Yan people would have to pay more casualties for it.
This route of the Chu army could be said to have been almost eaten away, and those who escaped were just cats and dogs, and they could be hunted down;
The other route was the location of that bronze war chariot. Shi Yuantang's personal soldiers wanted to protect their own Pillar of State and break through, but the Chu rout kept gathering here.
Some of the rout were still shouting in their mouths that they were here to protect the Pillar of State;
In reality, they surrounded the bronze war chariot, making it impossible to advance or retreat.
When the Chu army near the war chariot saw this, they couldn't wait to draw their knives and kill their own soldiers to open a path, but Shi Yuantang stopped them.
Shi Yuantang stood on the chariot and looked around. Outside, A Cheng led his troops to surround them.
If there were reinforcements outside, the Chu army might still be able to charge, or they could form a formation and continue to delay.
There were a lot of rout around, and Shi Yuantang, as the Pillar of State, could actually suppress them if he was willing. In fact, this was also the intention of these rout. They were already panicked and could only escape here to seek a "unified command."
But Shi Yuantang was very clear in his heart that there were no reinforcements.
Because his troops were equivalent to reinforcements. Moreover, Eastern Mountain Fort was only a part of the battlefield between the two sides. In the outer wilderness, there were Yan troops stationed and moving everywhere. The Yan people's sentry cavalry covered this area completely, and it was impossible for reinforcements to secretly come here and kill their way out.
The soldiers and generals were actually waiting, waiting for someone to make a decision.
And in this situation,
The decisions that could be made,
Were actually just those two.
Shi Yuantang said:
"I want to see the Great Yan Pingye Boye."
……
The bronze war chariot was still parked there, and outside, there were a group of Chu soldiers. They were frightened, they were uneasy, because in front of them, there were a group of Yan troops with obvious joking expressions.
And the old man who should have been standing on the bronze war chariot was no longer there.
Everyone actually knew what he had gone to do;
Right now, the Chu people were holding on, waiting for the Pillar of State to return after finishing his talks;
The Yan people were also forcibly suppressing their fatigue and holding their breath, waiting for the military order from their own Boye.
After passing through a group of Yan soldiers, Shi Yuantang, who was alone, finally walked onto Zheng Boye's commander's carriage.
Shi Yuantang saw Zheng Boye sitting on the commander's seat,
His golden armor was full of blood, his face was flushed, and after a battle, there was no sign of fatigue on his face, but instead, there was a hint of uncontrollable excitement.
Young people,
Young people,
Full of vigor.
Shi Yuantang sighed. He was very envious of this young Great Yan Boye's energy. Even if such a general might fail in the future because of this, before his failure, God knew how many opponents would fall under his sword.
He was just one of them.
Shi Yuantang didn't bow. He was the Great Chu Pillar of State and had his own dignity. Even now, he wouldn't deliberately bend over.
But he still smiled,
Cupped his hands at Zheng Boye,
And said:
"Greetings… Consort."
The Chu people liked to use the identity of "Consort" to call Zheng Boye, especially those who had been defeated by Zheng Boye.
Perhaps, this title could be seen as "one of us" to reduce some of the embarrassment between the two sides, who were actually people from enemy countries.
Zheng Boye, who was on drugs, was still in "high spirits,"
He lowered his head slightly, propped his chin with one hand, and gently stroked the beard he had recently neglected to trim,
And said:
"Pillar of State?"
"I am the Great Chu Pillar of State, Shi Yuantang."
Zheng Boye raised his other hand. He didn't want to hear too much politeness and self-introduction right now, but instead, he said bluntly:
"Surrender?"
Shi Yuantang nodded and said, "I have lost. Please give these children a way to live, Zheng Boye."
Zheng Boye blinked,
Pointed his finger at Shi Yuantang,
And said:
"Since you know you've lost, why don't you kneel? A defeated general should have the appearance of a defeated general."
"I am old, I hope……"
"Want some dignity?"
Zheng Boye, who was mentally excited, started to answer quickly.
"Yes."
"Dignity is given to you by me, only then do you have it, not that you come to me to ask for it, and I have to give it to you. I don't want to give you this kind of dignity. You just did such a thing that almost killed me;
Under my command, I don't know how many children died in the previous battle.
I'm sorry,
I can't give you dignity,
Kneel."
"Zheng Boye, a scholar can be killed but not humiliated. In fact, I didn't want to live. Please, Boye, treat a dying person……"
"If you don't kneel after three counts, all Chu prisoners today will be killed without mercy!"
"Three."
"Two."
"Pay respects to Pingye Boye."
Shi Yuantang knelt down to Zheng Boye, but there was no sign of frustration or resentment on his face. On the contrary, he was smiling, like an elder, looking at a naughty junior.
His smile made Zheng Boye feel annoyed.
Shi Yuantang then said, "Zheng Boye, you fought this battle too hastily. In my opinion, it would have been most appropriate for you to choose to withdraw your troops at that time."
"Do I need you to teach me how to fight a war?" Zheng Boye seemed to have heard something extremely absurd, pointed his finger at Shi Yuantang, "A defeated general who has just been defeated by me, is now kneeling in front of me, and still wants to be my teacher?"
A Ming lowered his head and looked at the medicine bottle in his hand. Hmm, the effect of this medicine was so powerful that the master was simply floating.
The Sword Saint, who was sitting cross-legged and recovering his vitality, couldn't help but take a few more glances at Zheng Boye. It should be known that Zheng Boye was actually quite good at dealing with people, knowing when to be arrogant and when to restrain himself, and he would do it very appropriately. In the past, he would not have been so aggressive towards a defeated general.
Looking at Zheng Boye's red eyes again, the Sword Saint could only shake his head slightly;
He really had to be glad that this pill was made by Xue San and was very different from the so-called Wushisan, and that some ingredients to neutralize the medicinal effects had been added, otherwise, if a strong dose of medicine had been taken, Zheng Boye might have taken off his armor like those unrestrained Qian scholars and started running naked between thousands of troops, feeling the joy of the wind blowing his body.
On the other hand, Zheng Boye himself didn't feel much abnormality. He just felt a little dizzy in addition to being emotionally excited, and he was too lazy to go around in circles when speaking and doing things.
Shi Yuantang shook his head and said, "What should be said, still needs to be said. Boye, you have achieved success at a young age, you should learn to be restrained and calm. Even Tian Wujing, although he looked down on heroes on the battlefield, outside the battlefield, when has he really lit that raging fire everywhere?
The reason why I knelt was first to ask for a chance to live for my children, and second, to ask for a chance to speak with you, Boye."
Zheng Boye tapped his fingers on the armrest of the commander's seat,
And said:
"Alright, speak."
"I lost this battle for three reasons.
First, I didn't have many cavalry under my command. After using them to contain the cavalry that Boye arranged on both wings of the city gate, I had no more room to maneuver, and I was only doing a one-shot deal;
Second, it can be seen that the soldiers under Boye's command don't know the art of foot combat, at least, they are not used to fighting in formations, but they are brave in martial arts, dare to fight, and are willing to fight to the death. Especially under Boye's initiative to press forward, they were able to withstand, resist, and withstand the pressure of my Great Chu army formation.
Third, I don't know if that cavalry that appeared last was arranged by Boye in advance, or if it was really the decision of the leader of the troops. In short, he used a cavalry as a guide to exert the effect of four ounces deflecting a thousand pounds, which ultimately led to the collapse of my Chu army."
That cavalry of Jin Shuke was like two strong men getting stuck in a stalemate, and suddenly someone appeared and tickled one of the strong men.
This metaphor seemed novel, but it was actually very appropriate, and the effect it achieved was also extremely good. Liang Cheng and Zheng Boye actually saw that the first contribution of this battle should be attributed to Jin Shuke.
Hearing this Great Chu Pillar of State babble so much, Zheng Boye said directly:
"When I was just a garrison commander, a military elder once taught me this, he said, fighting a war, there is nothing else, it is just that the soldiers are strong and the horses are strong."
Shi Yuantang nodded slightly and said, "These four words are very appropriate."
It was still because the soldiers under Zheng Boye's command were of high quality, and the horses were also more than the Chu people. It was just that they were caught off guard by the Chu people's sudden counterattack, but after they recovered, the cavalry power that the Yan people could use still made the Chu people very embarrassed.
In fact, if Shi Yuantang had a cavalry by his side at that time, he might have let that cavalry achieve the effect that Jin Shuke wanted to do. In this way, the first to collapse would definitely be the Yan army.
But, there was no such thing as what if.
Shi Yuantang also said:
"Indeed, apart from the differences in generals and strategies, if both sides don't make mistakes, it is indeed like this."
"Have you finished speaking?" Zheng Boye asked.
Shi Yuantang nodded and said, "I'm done."
"Then let them abandon their weapons and surrender, I will guarantee their lives. There should still be some Chu troops in Eastern Mountain Fort, appease them as well."
"Yes, Boye."
Shi Yuantang stood up,
And took the initiative to walk off the commander's carriage,
And walked to the front of the surrounded Chu army formation.
The wind on the battlefield blew on the white hair and white beard of the old Pillar of State, and those Chu soldiers were all looking at the figure of the old Pillar of State with expectant eyes.
People are not grass or trees, and once their morale and courage have been completely defeated, and their enthusiasm has dissipated, it is inevitable that they will begin to be greedy for life and afraid of death.
This is very normal,
Really normal.
Shi Yuantang showed a smile,
Turned his head,
And looked at the figure in golden armor on the commander's carriage behind him.
There were not many people who knew some things.
That was that the Regent King had never had any contact with the Shi family, but the Fourth Princess was Shi Yuantang's god-granddaughter.
This old Pillar of State loved that girl from the bottom of his heart,
Therefore,
He couldn't help but want to come here to see his god-grandson-in-law.
However, it seemed that the girl had not told this Yan Boye about herself.
Yes,
Who would have thought that he and she would meet here, just like this?
Looking at this look,
It was really,
Too much vigor, too much.
………
Zheng Boye didn't know that he was being misunderstood now, but he, who was still feeling the effects of the medicine, took the initiative to stand up and walked to the front end of the commander's carriage.
He had won this battle.
Although the price was very high, it was worth it.
After conquering Eastern Mountain Fort, making new achievements was a small matter. The most important thing was that this Eastern Front Army, led by Zheng Boye, could get a chance to breathe and recuperate.
The soldiers, had to be replenished, right?
The military equipment, had to be replenished, right?
The war horses, also had to be replenished, right?
As long as you could win battles, as long as you could win a clean and neat victory, these were not problems. When asking for people, horses, and military equipment from the rear, you could also stand up straight, and others would have nothing to say.
Plus, his relationship with the Jingnan King, hehe.
The battle of Yangshan Village, and the battle of this Eastern Mountain Fort, next, he could rest and recuperate in the rear and watch others fight.
This was like a top student finishing the paper ahead of time and appreciating the embarrassment of other students who were still scratching their heads, which was definitely extremely comfortable.
Blind Man could go back, and change Si Niang to come over to coordinate the logistics and sort out the relationship between his own troops and the other two troops.
And at this time,
Zheng Boye heard the roar from that Great Chu Pillar of State in front, which was almost angry to the extreme:
"I did not hesitate to abandon this old face, knelt down and begged that Boye to give everyone a chance to live, but that Boye did not agree, he said that he wanted us to be like the Azure Luan Army under Jade Plate City, to be slaughtered to strengthen his Yan army! I am incompetent, I cannot protect everyone, I will take the first step!"
As soon as he finished speaking,
Shi Yuantang suddenly reached out and drew the knife from the hand of a Yan soldier next to him, and very simply, wiped it across his neck.
The knife fell,
And the man fell.
The Chu army, which was surrounded in the central area, immediately let out a roar:
"Damn it, the Yan people won't give us a chance to live!"
"Fight with the Yan dogs!"
"Avenge the old Pillar of State!"
Liang Cheng silently raised his knife and ordered:
"Kill!"
The Yan cavalry rode their horses and began to charge.
……
In the distance,
Zheng Boye, standing on the commander's carriage, looked at the old figure lying in a pool of blood;
Moved his lips,
And cursed:
"Old thing."
————
It's hot, and I caught a cold from being blown by the air conditioner. Everyone should pay attention too, good night.
