Tianlong: Immortal Cultivator in the World of Martial Arts

Chapter 155 The Death of General Zuo

As Chen Cheng had died in battle, the people below did not give up because of this, and everyone was still struggling to resist.

The battle continued for another day. Even if one's own general died in battle, the Liao army still did not let the Liao army step into Yanmen Pass.

At night, the attack of the Liao army finally began to weaken, and it did not continue to attack like in the daytime. Now Yanmen Pass is commanded by the original deputy general.

"General, we have less than 3 people left. When will the reinforcements from the imperial court arrive?" A young general asked the lieutenant general.

"You ask me this, how do I know? It was the general who handled these matters before and didn't mention it to me." The deputy general looked at the people next to him and said.

Now they have begun to be very anxious. This time today, their own side has lost nearly 10 people. Although it also severely damaged the Liao army, if the opponent comes again with such an attack, how can they resist it with only a small number of people.

"Go, immediately send someone [-] miles to rush and report the matter here to the palace. We will support them once at most. If you don't come, there is nothing I can do here." The deputy general had no confidence at all. Although Yanmen Pass is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and there are many people, there is no need to worry about this loss.

"Yes, General, stay here and do it."

"Report, report to the general, there is a large group of troops coming from the rear, it seems that they should be reinforcements." A messenger came in and said directly.

The little general didn't even go out just now, but now the good news has come, the lieutenant immediately said excitedly, "Quick, let's go and have a look together."

After several people arrived at the city gate, after repeated confirmation that it was indeed Song Jun, the deputy general directly shouted, "Open the city gate."

This is relatively good, there is a mountain blocking the middle and the Liao army, the Liao army certainly would not have thought of such a thing.

After the city gate was opened, the lieutenant led a few of his confidants and rode towards the outside of the city gate. When he approached, he realized that the other party was still a person he was more familiar with.

"Hu Ze, it's you!"

"Haha, Qi Jun didn't expect you to be dead yet? How is Teacher Chen Cheng?" Hu Ze said.

This Hu Ze can also be regarded as one of the generals in Zhao Bi's favor, and he is still a relatively outstanding existence.

"Hu Ze, General Zuo..." Lieutenant General Qi Jun's eyes were already red when he said to Chen Cheng.

The two of them didn't say anything. Everyone knew what happened on the battlefield. Qi Jun took Hu Ze directly to Yanmen Pass, but when he saw that the only tens of thousands of people left were also in a state of distress, Hu Ze was deeply moved. He took a breath, but in the end he didn't say anything.

When looking at the body lying on the stretcher covered with a white cloth, Hu Ze stepped forward and knelt down slowly on the ground.

With firm eyes, Hu Ze directly pulled away the white cloth covering Chen Cheng. When he saw Chen Cheng, Hu Ze didn't show any special expression, but said lightly, "Teacher, don't worry, the students will definitely kill the Liao army and avenge you .”

Qi Jun stood aside and watched Hu Ze's situation quietly, and didn't go up to say anything.

After a long time, Hu Ze got up and covered Chen Cheng with a white cloth, then looked directly at Qi Jun and said, "How many soldiers are there in Yanmen Pass?"

"General Qi, there are more than [-] troops left at Yanmen Pass, and they are still capable of fighting." Qi Jun said with a serious expression.

For Qi Jun, the current Hu Ze's official position is equal to his own, but this time so many brothers have died, it is better to hand over the war to Hu Ze to take command.

"Qi Jun, you don't have to do this. I was ordered to come here this time, and I brought a total of 1 soldiers and horses." As soon as I said this, I saw the disappointment in Qi Jun's eyes, and Hu Ze continued, "At the request of His Highness King Mu, This time there will be people from the martial arts world participating, according to the progress, they should be there in two days, there will be more than [-] people, and there will be two or three grandmasters."

As soon as these words came out, the Qi Jun next to him immediately started laughing. The master's combat power is already quite powerful. According to speculation, it is impossible for the Liao Army to attack again this time.So two or three days is not a problem.

Seeing Qi Jun's appearance, Hu Ze smiled and said, "Why are you confident now?"

"Isn't this different? The most important thing is that you brought an army of 25, and our side has [-], but the other party still has at least [-] people. Today's day-to-day battle with me, there are traitors on our side." When I said this, I saw that Qi Jun had already started to gnash his teeth and said, looking at the people behind him, he continued, "When Han Feng behaved a little weirdly, General Zuo already found out that something was wrong with him. Although he was locked up, he didn't People pay too much attention to this matter, which led to the elimination of such a situation in the end."

"Han Feng? How could he, how dare he?" Hu Ze also said angrily.

"General Zuo took him down when he was dying, and now he is locked in Yanmen Pass." Qi Jun said, now he can't wait to kill him directly.

"Don't touch him yet, take him back when the time comes, and I will definitely report to His Majesty and punish his nine clans."

Qi Jun saw the anger in Hu Ze's eyes now, but he didn't expect to punish the Jiu Clan, but such a person should be like this.

"First replace the soldiers in the city to rest, and let the [-] troops I brought make up for them, so that they can eat and drink well."

After hearing Hu Ze's words, Qi Jun immediately said loudly, "My subordinates thank you, General."

Since Hu Ze came, Qi Jun has been thinking about such things.After fighting for a day, so many people died. For these people who participated in the war for the first time, they are already exhausted.

It is not that simple to switch defenses, at least it will take an hour or two to get it done, and by then it is already midnight.

The next day

Hu Ze replaced Chen Cheng and walked up to the city wall. Seeing the devastated outside, the whole air was filled with the smell of blood. Some soldiers who had never experienced war had already vomited out.

The battle yesterday was really tragic, so there are still many corpses outside that have not been dealt with.

Among the crowd disposing of the corpses, there were thousands of Song troops and Liao troops at the same time, but the two sides were safe and sound, and no one would attack them at this time.

Although the weather has started to get cold at this time, for these corpses, there is no telling when the plague will break out. This thing is the experience summed up by the ancestors who died without knowing how many people died.

There is no moat outside Yanmen Pass. Although there are natural dangers, if there are too many people, it is still relatively unfavorable for defending the city.
