Chapter 752 Wheat Field
The road leading to Hekou Town runs from north to south.

There is a newly built canal along the road, and there are wheat fields on both sides of the canal.

In June, when the winter wheat is ripe, Liu Zong rode his horse and ran wildly in the daytime and saw it. This scene in Guanzhong is exactly "June wheat is yellow and fragrant all over the plateau".

But at this time when the night wind blows, you can still smell the fragrance of wheat.

Although I haven't met anyone yet, I can already feel the joy of a good harvest.

Liu Zheng slowed down his horse, and any team of cavalry flowed past him like running water.

Occasionally, I could hear a few lines of dialogue, not necessarily in Mongolian, and there were also many seductive people in the army. Although Liu Zheng couldn't understand, he could fully feel the obscene meaning in those words.

The desire to rape, wanting to vent wantonly, and the dangerous breath like a beast permeated the surroundings, accompanied by the smell of sweat and blood.

Feeling guilty and unbearable, Liu Zheng stopped moving forward at this moment.

His fourth son, Liu Gai, drove over and asked, "Father, is there something wrong?"

Liu Zheng shook his head, and murmured: "Jia Yi was exiled for three years, and his class surpassed thousands of miles. How about holding a white calf and drinking water against the clear stream?"

Liu Gai understood the meaning of this poem. Jia Yi was demoted to Changsha for three years, and Ban Chao was only granted the title of Marquis after being thousands of miles away from home.
But who is it that sees this poem again?
Why did Li Bai let go of his ambitions for official career?

Knowing father Mo Ruozi, Liu Gai knew that his father was not envious of rural life at all, but complained that it was too difficult to be a marquis.

The screams sounded, shattering the peaceful and peaceful night.

"what!"

The melancholy in Liu Zheng's eyes dissipated, and he looked resolute again. He raised his whip and pointed to the front, saying, "Look, this is a troubled world. Ordinary people are just fish under the sword. Born as a man, he deserves to be a marquis!"

"That's what my father taught."

Liu Zheng's eyes became colder, and he drove forward.

The weakness and confusion just now were gone. He is Sai Cunxiao who is famous all over the world, and he should have great achievements throughout the world.

The killing shouts in front became louder and louder.

However, something seems wrong...

"E Xiu Te!"

"E Xiute..."

Liu Zheng and Liu Gai looked at each other, Liu Gai was still in a daze, but Liu Zheng had already shouted: "There is an ambush!"

Some cavalry rushed to the side of the road, looking forward.

Under the moonlight, the horses on the road were like running water, and the knight on the horse turned his head occasionally, the greedy and cruel look in his eyes had not faded in the future, and it reflected the torch.

The scimitar has already been raised, and it can't wait to show off its force to the people in the town.

Further ahead, there are crossbow arrows fired from the lasing.

"call!"

The wind was breaking loudly.

The crossbows are giant crossbows, eight-ox crossbows, and three-bow bed crossbows.

The shaft of the arrow is thick, longer than a person's stature.

Such a bed crossbow requires two warriors to push the twisted shaft, and the three large bows shoot out the arrows at the same time, with a range of up to a thousand steps.

"puff!"

"puff!"

"puff……"

The spurted crossbow first pierced the cheek of a Semuren.

The arrow was bigger than his mouth, and it hit his entire face directly. At the same time as the blood spattered, the crossbow arrow pierced the neck of the second Mongol-Han army, knocking off his entire head.

Almost at the same time, the arm of the third Mongolian soldier was crushed, with blood flying everywhere...

In this way, the crossbow bolt pierced through the bodies of nearly ten Mongolian soldiers, and finally nailed to the chest of a startled horse.

An archway stands at the entrance of the town, and under the archway, a row of Song soldiers have come out with shields and spears.

Their number was obviously beyond the expectations of the Mongolian army.

Before setting off, Tanma had inquired and said that there were only twenty patrolmen in the town, but at this moment, it turned out that there were more than a thousand people.

"There is an ambush!"

"..."

"Destroy the captives!"

"Kill! Kill! Kill!"

Three shouts, one for arrogance, the other for intimidating the enemy soldiers, and the third for adjusting the rhythm.

After the first shout of "kill", the Song soldiers rushed to Meng Qi's body, and after the second shout, the spears were fully charged.

"kill!"

With a final cry, the spears stabbed diagonally.

"Puff puff……"

~~
Liu Zheng's direct lineage was handed over to the eldest son Liu Yuan, and he only brought more than two hundred personal soldiers with him.

And two of the three horse-hunting red troops brought out from Beiluoshui went to Qinghe Town and Fenglin Town respectively, and one of them followed him tonight.

Suddenly facing the battle, the Mongolian commander Unger also quickly responded, immediately called the gold, and withdrew to the north with the soldiers and horses that could still run.

Liu Zheng, as the "Marshal of the Military and Horse Capital of Chengdu Fulu", nominally took the place of Niu Lin back then, so he was able to command the Red Army.Moreover, the Mongolian army has always been strict in the art of war. Since the commanders entered Guanzhong, even though they had an arrogant attitude, they at least listened to his orders.

But at this time, Liu Zheng was not in a hurry to command, and did not stop at all, allowing Unger to lead the troops to retreat first.

He pulled the rein and drove the horse back a few steps, looked back to the north, and thought for a while.

Hekou Town is not a good place to set up an ambush.

The Song army set up an ambush in Hekou Town, not on the official road further north. It can be seen that they also came in a hurry from the south. Maybe it was the Chang'an garrison... No, the possibility of the Chang'an garrison leaving the line of defense without authorization is very low, and it is more likely to be Li Xia has returned to his teacher.

Dong Wenyong and Dong Wenzhong didn't hold back?

In any case, there were cavalry in Li Xia's army.Even if a more suitable ambush point cannot be selected, since the eight-ox crossbow can be moved out, it is not difficult for the cavalry to circle around and encircle

"Exploring the horses and the Red Army come from both sides!" Liu Zhengsui roared, "The Supervising Biao Battalion maintains the formation, follow me to cut off the rear!"

"Here!"

Liu Zheng's [-] soldiers were brave men brought out from Dengzhou, able to fight on horseback, on foot, and in water. After taking orders, they withdrew a little distance to ensure that they would not be dispersed.

They regrouped and only heard the shouts from the north.

Afterwards, Unger's flag appears to have fallen.

Liu Zheng calmly turned to the interpreter and asked, "What are you shouting for?"

"You can't escape, you are already surrounded, if you don't want to go to see Changshengtian so soon, put down your weapons and surrender..."

Liu Zheng was surprised: "Those Mongolian words are calling this?"

He rode his horse and looked forward for a while, and he could vaguely see that the fighting was still going on in the north, and those brave warriors had not surrendered.

But under the moonlight, I can already see a pole with high teeth and a large flag, which is far larger than the general flag, and there is a ball of scorpion on the top of the pole.

Liu Zheng knew how to distinguish the flag, so he knew it was Li Xia's Wang flag without reading the characters.

Without hesitation, he pulled the rein and walked away.

"Retreat to the east!"

Horseshoe into the wheat field.

The heavy ears of wheat on the stalks had fallen to the ground, and then horseshoes stepped over them, and more than three hundred horsemen quickly entered the wheat field.

"Give me the torch, burn it!"

"call……"

The flames rose and gradually turned into a sea of ​​flames.

Liu Zheng didn't even look at the fire behind him, and kept driving his horse forward.

The surroundings were full of clattering noises, the horses pushed aside the ears of wheat and sprinkled them one after another,
It sounded quite nice.

The fire behind him lit up half the sky.

When he ran eastward for nearly ten miles, he heard killing cries in the distance.

Liu Zheng knew that it was the team of Red Army Exploring Horses who went to Qinghe Town to rob, and was also surrounded by Li Xia.

He didn't try to rescue him anymore, but immediately overturned all his previous strategies and decided to give up his plan to go to Chang'an.

I can only rush back to Tongguan, join Liu Yuan, look for an opportunity to capture Tongguan and break out of Guanzhong...

After running for a long time, Liu Zheng led the people to turn south, and soon saw Qinghe.

The guide is gone. He is not familiar with the terrain, but as long as he walks along the Qinghe River, he can reach the Weihe River, and if he walks along the Weihe River again, he can reach Tongguan.

The river was sparkling, and Liu Zheng was thinking about this while riding a horse, and suddenly realized a problem... The context of his plan was too clear.

Attacking Chang'an, Dongwei Bridge, Gaoling County, Weishui, Qinghe... all have traces to follow.

When Li Xia was still in Nanyang before, Guan Zhong was empty.

Now the situation has changed, and now Li Xia has troops to set up an ambush.

Just as he was thinking of this, suddenly, a loud roar sounded in front of him.

It was the end of the wheat field, there was a bend in the Qinghe River, and many figures had already appeared in the woods.

"Liu is a thief! Your grandfather has been waiting here for a long time!"

"Whoosh!"

It was Liu Zheng who shot the arrow first.

He didn't wait for the opponent's bow and crossbow to shoot out, he had already set his bow and set up an arrow, following the source of the shouting sound, he shot out an arrow.

"puff!"

At the same time as there was a scream from the opposite side, the rain of arrows had already struck.

"Whoosh whoosh..."

Liu Zheng had already bent down, retracted the bow, raised the long knife in one hand, held the shield in the other to protect the horse, and continued to charge forward.

~~
The world knows that Liu Zheng is good at riding and shooting, but they don't know how far he has reached; the world knows that he took Xinyang, but they all think that Xinyang City is difficult to get.

Few people think about whether they can do it themselves.

Li Xia often thought about this question, but he never took only 12 people to take the city, and at least one time he brought more than a thousand people.

When Liu Zheng took the city back then, even Meng Gong was shocked when he learned about it afterwards.

Xinyang is not easy to get, and Liu Zheng is not lucky, it's just that what he has accomplished will always appear easy in the eyes of others.

He is always underestimated, or because of this, he has an angry temperament about him.

At this time, anger surged up, and Liu Zheng faced the general of the Song army who was coming forward with a gun, and cut him down with a single knife.

"clang!"

Fire splashes.

The horse continued to move forward, past the general, and Liu Zheng swiped his sword horizontally, killing two soldiers and forcing back the soldiers of the Song Dynasty.

After that, he reined in his horse and circled around, and then killed and came back to rescue Liu Gai and his subordinates.

"Kill!"

……

There are still fires on the wheat fields in the distance.

The river was full of dead bodies.

In fact, Liu Jinsuo didn't "wait for a long time" here, but met Liu Zheng on the way when he saw the fire and was about to make up for it.

He didn't bring any horses, and the strength of the army was not many or many, and there were only more than [-] people. Liu Jinsuo blocked him without hesitation.

After fighting for a long time, he held guns in both hands, and he struggled to block Liu Zheng's several slashes.

"Go to hell, dog thief!"

A Song soldier rushed forward with a roar, stabbing Liu Zheng with a spear.

Liu Zheng first slashed at Song Bing's body with a knife, then quickly swung his knife and smashed Liu Jinsuo's shoulder heavily, knocking him to the ground, and then retreated with his horse.

"Go!" Liu Zheng shouted.

He had already rescued Liu Gai, so he withdrew his horse and left without wanting to fight.

"Bah!"

The war horse just turned around, but there was a scream, only to see that Song soldier from just now rushed forward again, swiping his knife and slashing at his war horse.

Liu Zheng swung his saber down again, cutting straight into the opponent's leather armor, and the horse was frightened and galloped fast.

The Song soldier held Liu Zheng's saber handle with one hand, and continued to chop the horse with the saber in the other.

Liu Jinsuo turned over and stood up, shouting: "Zou Laosi, let go of your motherfucker!"

Zou Lao Si was his personal soldier, but at this moment he was still holding onto Liu Zheng's saber pole and refused to let go, being dragged and ground by the war horse on the ground.

Liu Jinsuo hurriedly led his men to catch up.

After chasing him for a long time, he saw Zou Laosi lying on the ground bloody and bloody, and he seemed to be dying.

Before Liu Jinsuo locked it, he cursed loudly.

"Damn it, I told you to let go and not let go!"

"Dog thief... burn... burn wheat..."

"Is it your family's wheat? Damn you, aren't you from Fufeng!"

Liu Jinsuo scolded and clutched Zou Laosi's stomach, the wound was too big and the blood couldn't stop.

Looking down again, he saw that the little soldier had passed away, so Liu Jinsuo had no choice but to stand up and look for Liu Zheng's trace.

"General, the dead horse is here!"

After that, there were two "plops", and someone jumped into the river...

~~
The Qing River flows into the Shichuan River, and the Shichuan River flows into the Wei River.

At dawn, a merchant ship was staggering at the mouth of the river.

"Pfft."

"Pfft..."

A corpse was thrown into the river.

Liu Zheng walked across the blood-stained deck, glanced at it, and ordered: "Let's go."

He has only 36 people left under his command.

But they are still elites, they galloped to the mouth of the river last night and snatched the boat to wait for him.

Although his horse died, he also found a small boat, followed the Qing River into the Shichuan River, and finally into the Wei River, where he found Liu Gai and his men.

This is the elite level of Dengzhou's bravery...

Ships go down the Wei River.

Liu Zheng intends to go to Tongguan to find soldiers and horses of his direct lineage, but after that, he can no longer preserve his strength, and must conquer Tongguan in a bloody battle to be qualified to gain a foothold in this troubled world.

"Father."

"What's the matter?"

"There is a small bamboo raft catching up from behind."

Liu Zheng turned around, walked to the stern of the boat, and looked towards the river, but only saw a small empty bamboo raft.

"no one?"

"Maybe it's just two fishermen who swam away in fright..."

Liu Zheng put down his bow and casually nodded in response.

Only now can he finally look back on the entire battle. He was defeated twice, defeated by Zhang Jue once and defeated by Li Xia once, and he lost all [-] troops in Guanzhong.

He seems to have the right to command the soldiers and horses on the way into the Yellow River, but in fact it is Ahema who is really in charge.

And this route is only one of the four routes of soldiers and horses in the research.

He, Liu Zheng, was not the commander in chief of the overall situation, so he suffered this defeat.

"Yi Shu'an misunderstood me, and Ahema refused to listen to me. It's a pity that a good fighter can't lead the overall situation!"

"Father, my son feels... the boat is sinking?"
