The big man is on the run

Chapter 176

The situation inside the camp is different from the outside world. There are no torches or lanterns inside the camp, only the boundless darkness and drifting black mist. Everything is plunged into darkness, as if entering another world, a cold and damp atmosphere. The cold air kept coming up from the soles of their feet, making them shiver uncontrollably.

"General, what's the matter?" a guard asked boldly.

"Look carefully ahead!"

Everyone looked up, and sure enough, in the smoke, there was a sentence of corpses in front of them, which obviously belonged to the original defenders.

This is easy to identify, the clothes on the corpse belonged to Yuan Shaojun.

"No wonder I feel strange here! So many people died here!"

"General, I think it's better to get out quickly!"

Hearing this, Ma Yan's face was cloudy and uncertain, he didn't know how to make a choice, after all he was ordered to investigate.

Moreover, Ma Yan always felt that since there was a rain of arrows attacking him just now, maybe the people inside were not monsters as deserters said, but human beings.

Ma Yanrao's location is far away and remote, it's a corner of the camp, he thinks it's better to go deeper and find out what happened.

"Since you're here, let's go in and have a look!" In the end, Ma Yan made a decision and led his soldiers to go deeper into it.

The soldiers led by Mayan marched towards the camp on the west side, and Mayan himself began to become more and more vigilant. He always had a feeling in his heart that this camp had become extremely dangerous now. Once he and the soldiers If we stop, we will soon usher in the disaster of killing ourselves.

When they came to the camp this time, they were only ordered to investigate the enemy's situation, and they didn't want to really fight the enemy to the death.

"Da da da"

"Da da da"

There was a rush of horseshoes, and suddenly many figures appeared on both sides of the road ahead, holding longbows, aiming at Mayan and the others, dense rain of arrows shot from all directions, and the dense arrows were as dense as a rainstorm fall down.

Ma Yan's face turned pale in an instant. It was impossible to resist the rain of arrows at this level. Even he did not have the confidence to survive.

Holding a big axe in his hand, Xu Huang rode a war horse he found from the barracks, and charged at them first, followed closely by the elite officers and soldiers.

Seeing this, Ma Yan's heart suddenly sank, and he quickly shouted: "Retreat!"

"retreat!"

The soldiers led by Ma Yan retreated quickly, trying to retreat behind the fence and seek some terrain protection.

However, their speed was still too slow. After a round of arrow rain, many people had been pierced by arrows, and their robes were stained red with blood. Those who fell on the ground trembled as if they were sifting chaff.

"General, there really are demons!"

Ma Yan was startled when he heard this, and quickly yelled: "Hold me! Hold up! They are not monsters, kill them!"

After all, Ma Yan has more knowledge. He knows that the enemy may be pretending to be a monster. He does not believe that there are really monsters in this world.

"kill!"

Following Ma Yan's order, the two hundred soldiers behind Ma Yan rushed towards the group of "demons" wearing hideous masks.

"boom!"

The huge battle ax in Xu Huang's hand came towards Ma Yan. The huge force made Ma Yan unable to dodge, so he had to hold the steel shield in his hand to resist Xu Huang's battle axe.

"boom!"

Ma Yan only felt as if his arm had been hit hard by a heavy hammer. Suddenly, his throat was sweet, and a hot stream spewed out from the corner of his mouth.

"General!"

Seeing this, several soldiers behind Ma Yan exclaimed in alarm and rushed towards Ma Yan.

However, their speed couldn't compare to Xu Huang's attack. In the blink of an eye, they were chopped into corpses by the battle ax without the protection of their shields, and they couldn't die anymore.

However, Ma Yan persisted with his strong will to fight.

"Humph!"

Xu Huang sneered, and then swung the big ax at Ma Yan again.

"boom!"

Another ax hit Mayan's shield, and Ma Yan felt as if the shield in his hand had been hit by a siege engine, and the tiger's mouth burst open instantly.

The pain of the tiger's mouth bursting made Ma Yan groan, and then the power was transmitted to his limbs, his mouth opened wide, and a mouthful of blood spewed out.

Taking advantage of Mayan's vomiting of blood, Xu Huang once again swept away thousands of troops and smashed them down.

Seeing this, Ma Yan was terrified, and quickly drew his knife to resist.

"clang!"

There was a crisp sound of metal collisions, and the ring knife in Ma Yan's hand was directly smashed, and then, the tomahawk hit Ma Yan's body mercilessly, Ma Yan only felt his head buzzing, and his body fell backwards involuntarily flew out.

"boom!"

Blood slowly flowed down Ma Yan's forehead, and Ma Yan's eyes were wide open, wide open, staring at Xu Huang, eyes full of anger, resentment, and fear.

"General!"

Seeing that Ma Yan was seriously injured, the rest of the guards couldn't help calling out in grief. Unfortunately, their reaction was too slow. How could they stop Xu Huang? As long as Xu Huang wanted to kill someone, it was easy.

"puff!"

Ma Yan's neck was cut directly by the ax blade, and his head rolled to the ground.

"General!"

Seeing Ma Yan being killed, the guards were even more distressed, but they had no way to stop Xu Huang's footsteps.

Xu Huang's eyes were filled with cold light, holding a big ax in his hand, he continued to lead the officers and soldiers to chase Ma Yan's subordinates.

Under the pursuit of the official army, Ma Yan's remaining subordinates were quickly surrounded by the official army, and there was no way to escape.

"Brothers, let's fight!"

"Kill! Kill!"

"kill!"

Seeing this situation, the rest of the soldiers screamed hysterically, stabbing the officers and soldiers frantically with the spears in their hands.

"Whoosh whoosh!"

"Ding ding ding!"

There was a sound of metal collisions in the empty camp. Although these soldiers who were driven to a desperate situation were brave and fearless, they were powerless.

After all, there are nearly a thousand officers and soldiers.

It can only be said that as long as the thousands of defenders in the original camp were not scared to blow up the camp, what happened now would not have happened at all.

It's a pity that there is nothing if.

Xu Huang knocked down a soldier who was trying to sneak up on him with one axe, then swung the back of the axe in his hand, and knocked the head of another soldier, only to hear a muffled sound, and the soldier's head was hit exploded.

"Kill!"

"Kill!"

The officers and soldiers uttered shouts, waved their swords, and slashed at the remaining Yuan Shaojun. Suddenly, flesh and blood flew everywhere.

Although more than a dozen of Mayan's personal guards were brave and good at fighting, their strength was still much weaker than that of the official army, so they were quickly killed by the official army, and the remaining ordinary soldiers lost their organization. , began to flee in embarrassment.

"The channel is open?"

Zang Hong in Baima City couldn't believe it, but the information in front of him told him clearly, and he had to believe it if he didn't believe it.

Yuan Shao's army in the west of the city had scattered and fled, and Yuan Shao's main force was mobilized to the pontoon bridge in the northeast.

It can be seen from a long distance, dotted with torches in the northeast, surrounding the floating bridge of the Yellow River, the two sides seem to have launched a desperate battle.

"Prefect, don't miss this opportunity! Please act quickly!" said a general beside him.

"it is good!"

Zang Hong nodded when he heard the words, and then dispatched a lieutenant general to lead a group of soldiers to quickly leave the city and rush towards the west as the vanguard.

And then, the west gate of Baima City opened wide, and under the protection of teams of soldiers, the people helped the old and the young, and began to evacuate towards the Yellow River to the west.

"Master Taishou, do you want to go?"

Seeing that Zang Hong was still standing still, a general couldn't help asking.

"Um!"

Zang Hong nodded and said: "I have already sent people to inform the officials and generals in the prefect's mansion and the army. They are coming to the outside of the city. I will wait in the city until everyone has withdrawn. I'll be the last to leave."

When Yang Xiu heard this, he not only took a deep look at Zang Hong.

This person is indeed a righteous man.

It seems that His Majesty tried his best to save him, but he did not save the wrong person. He is not a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death.

The general said: "Don't worry, prefect! I will lead the people to evacuate to the river!"

Zang Hong nodded and said, "I'll wait for everyone to leave in the west of the city."

"promise!"

The location of the Yellow River pontoon bridge, Yuan Shao led a large number of troops to surround the entire river to the south.

"My lord!"

At this moment, a personal guard quickly ran over from a distance, came to Yuan Shao's side and knelt down on the ground, cupped his fists and said, "My lord! The western fortress of Baima City is blown up!"

"what?"

Hearing what the guard said, Yuan Shao's expression changed slightly, and he asked quickly, "What's going on?"

"I heard that there are monsters coming and going!"

Angrily, Yuan Shao kicked the guard to the ground.

"Where are there monsters in this world?"

"It's not that the subordinates are talking nonsense, but many people have seen it with their own eyes."

Yuan Shao waved his hand irritably, and only said, "Let Guo Tu handle it by himself."

"Here!"

The guards didn't dare to make Yuan Shao angry, so they left quickly.

However, Guo Tu, who received the order, decided to close all the gates of the camp after receiving the news that Mayan's troops were missing.

Guo Tu didn't want to lose any more soldiers, you know, 200 people is not a big deal, if the loss continues, then Yuan Shao will pursue it, and the Jizhou faction will attack, and it will be all his responsibility, Guo Tu.

Guo Tu finally took charge of the situation alone, and Yuan Shao asked him to stay in the camp, so he stayed in the camp and would never go out again.

At this time, due to Guo Tu's persistence, the people in Baima City were able to pass through the smoky area on the west side and come to the river under the protection of soldiers.

And there were small boats waiting by the Yellow River to ferry them to Luzhou.

This long and narrow land continent has been transformed into a temporary transit base by the government and army. Large transport ships with relatively large tonnages are all parked at the pier of the land continent. When small transport ships transport people there, they will transfer them there. West of Hanoi County.

After all, compared with small boats, there are dozens of boatmen rowing under these big boats, even if they go against the current, the speed is not slow.

It was a long night, the feint attack at the Yellow River pontoon, and the pursuit and oppression pontoon at the granary on the north bank. The officers and troops of these two parts paid huge casualties.

However, it was all worth it. In Baima City, almost all the living people were rescued and sent to Luzhou safe and sound, and then sent to Hanoi County through Luzhou, and entered Zhongtiao Mountain in Hanoi County.

"Your Majesty's kindness, minister Zang Hong, will never be forgotten!"

On Luzhou, Zang Hong looked at the ship going away, threw himself to the ground, and raised a big gift to Liu Yi.

"Prefect Zang, please get up quickly." Liu Yi helped Zang Hong up, and said with emotion: "If Prefect Zang thanked me, it would be better to thank these soldiers who went through life and death, and thank you for your persistence. If you think about it, if you don't have a heart With the thoughts of loyalty, filial piety, benevolence and righteousness, if you sit and guard the lonely city, you will not be able to persist until I come to save you."

Zang Hong was lying on the ground, and when he heard the last sentence, he almost burst into tears, his shoulders heaving up and down.

"Your Majesty is wise and powerful, and has a lot of tricks. I have caused trouble for Your Majesty. I am ashamed, I am ashamed!"

Liu Yi was silent for a while, and only sighed.

"A true righteous man, that's all. Let me leave a word for Yuan Shao, and please call him when the navy retreats. I think he will be there."

Guo Huai wrote it down with his ear, nodded, and turned to leave.

At dawn, the government, army and navy who had stormed the pontoon bridge all night and failed to succeed withdrew from the battlefield.

Accompanied by the mighty water of the Yellow River, the neat sound of the chant reached Yuan Shao who was standing by the river.

"Yuan Benchu, go blind! Come and shoot the straw man all over the body!

Indecisive ~ all useless!Zang Hong ran away, and lost soldiers again! "

The red sun rises brightly, and the golden light falls on the river surface, coating the Yellow River with a layer of sparkling gold.

It's really a beautiful scene of floating light jumping gold, and quiet shadow sinking jade.

However, Yuan Shao didn't care to appreciate it. He stared wide-eyed, staring blankly at the scarecrow on the boat that was planted like a hedgehog.

Pointing at those ships with trembling fingers, after receiving the news of the White Horse City's One Night Sky City, he couldn't say a complete sentence.

"Liu Yi, you."

After a while, he spat out blood, and fell straight to the ground.
