Water Margin: Lu Bu sits on Mount Liang

Chapter 263 The End ([-] words)

"Niugao treats the wounded, Fengtai cleans the battlefield! Xiao Haili, gather the remaining people and return to the front line."

Lu Bu's majestic voice echoed in the reeds. Red Rabbit was walking back with vigorous steps. The mane on his neck swayed slightly with the ups and downs. The hand holding the halberd held the long soldier across the horse and stroked it with his free hand. Hit its neck.

The seriously injured lay on the ground groaning, and then someone came over to carry them aside for treatment. Fortunately, there were not many seriously injured soldiers. Many soldiers with superficial injuries were hastily bandaged with cloth, and then turned their horses to go to Khitan. The big man's side.

Fengtai was walking on the battlefield with his golden mace, and the soldiers of Liangshan walked past Zhuang Yong's body. Regardless of whether he was alive or not, he first stabbed him with a spear, and then bent down to collect his swords and armor, his face expressionless. Walking towards the next one, under the sky, death screams occasionally sounded.

At a certain moment, the assembled team began to run under the painted halberd pointed in front of the red figure, and the muffled thunder became quieter as the horse team went away.

"Deputy Commander, these three pieces of material look like the opponent's generals. How should we deal with them?"

A soldier from the Ma Army came over and pointed not far away, where the bodies of Luan Tingfang and three others were placed. Fengtai touched his chin. Niu Gao listened and said, "If the matter is buried, my brother will also It didn’t say how to deal with it.”

"No, I do have an idea." A smile appeared on his ferocious face. Fengtai turned to look at Niu Gao: "Why don't you and I send these three people over and use this corpse as bait? If he When you can't help but come out..." He stretched out his hand in front of his face and shook it hard.

"It's inappropriate. It's a bit unethical." Niu Gao shook his head and added: "Besides, the hot kiln in front of you is like a hot kiln. Who will care about you?"

"Isn't there a back door?" He looked over with a smile, and the smile at the corner of his mouth turned ferocious: "Marching and fighting are inherently intrigues. Besides, you forgot that he was waiting to massacre the village. How come no one said it was unethical at that time? ?”

The dark man's expression was stagnant. He subconsciously put his palm on the mace on his waist and rubbed it gently. After a while, he said: "I still feel that something is wrong."

Fengtai waved his hand impatiently: "Then I'll do it myself. You can just watch here."

Niu Gao's expression froze, and he subconsciously put his palm on the mace on his waist and gently rubbed it. He looked at Feng Tai for a long time and said, "No, I will still stay with you."

"That's right." The ugly Huaixi man nodded.

Save you from doing anything more extreme.Niu Gao didn't say this, but just held the iron mace that felt cool: "Brothers E Quanzhong and Di Lei are guarding the back door, right?"

"That's right. I won't be needed at my brother's place for a while. You and I will each take half of the people there, and the other half will go back. If it works out, we can help my brother break the village. If it doesn't work out, I'll go back later."

Niu Gao nodded: "It's just that I have to send someone to inform my brother, otherwise I won't go with you."

Rolling his eyes, Fengtai nodded: "That's fine."

At that moment, the two men summoned people and gave instructions. The two cavalrymen got on their horses, shouted loudly, and ran quickly in the direction Lu Bu had gone.

Looking at the figure going away, the two men with double maces looked at each other, walked towards their mounts and stepped on the horses: "Pull up the body, let's go!"

The three vacated horses were tied with immovable corpses, and Wei Yangyin's head was tied under the horse's neck. Then, the horses' hooves stepped on the hard soil, and nearly a hundred figures set off a roar.

……

The back entrance of Zhujiazhuang is also heavily fortified. Zhuang Yong, holding a long bow, gathered on the wall and looked down. In the distance, two smaller formations were spread out, and together they formed a larger defensive formation. The four flags of An, An, and Shuang Di were erected and fluttering in the wind. Further away, soldiers in the field were working hard to improve the camp so that the soldiers of the two battalions could rest later.

"Zhi Niang, if it weren't for the fierce attack at the main entrance, I would have transferred Zhuang Yong over and I would have killed more than a thousand thieves." Zhu Yongqing was wearing a bright silver armor, with a trace of unwillingness on his handsome face, holding on to the hilt of his sword, He made a fist with one hand and punched the wall.

"It's not Zhu Lang's fault that there are too few troops." A clear female voice sounded from behind, and the girl in white fox fur looked charming: "I only hope that Master Luan can bring good news."

The young man facing outside did not see the frown of the girl behind him. He just held his sword and straightened his body: "Master, the three of them are all good players, so don't worry."

The cold wind blew by. The girl covered her head with a fox fur hat. Some of her black hair was messed up by the wind. She stretched out her hand to straighten it out. A stronger wind blew. She couldn't help but turn her head to avoid the strong wind. She looked to the side and her eyes were stunned: "There are cavalry coming over there... Could it be..."

Upon hearing this, Zhu Yongqing quickly turned his head and looked over. He held up the flag with the characters Feng and Niu and fluttered it in the wind. The smoke he raised was blown aside by the cold wind. In the flying dust, war horses of various colors were galloping towards him in an ups and downs.

"Probably not." The face of the young man holding the sword's hilt changed color, and veins popped out in the hand holding the sword's hilt: "Master and the others will be fine."

In his sight, two flags ran into the military formation, and six general flags were flying in the air. The increase in the opponent's troop strength made Zhu Yongqing exhale: "It should be the cavalry coming for reinforcements, so just say it's not."

Behind her, Liu Huiniang's pretty face turned gloomy, and she bit her lip lightly: "Then how did he get here?"

Zhu Yongqing was startled, hesitated for a moment, and then slowly said: "You must have taken a detour, it's not like the reeds over there."

"What a coincidence..." the girl said. Seeing the hand holding the sword in front of her tighten suddenly, she changed her words: "Maybe they are reinforcements, let's wait and see first."

Zhu Yongqing nodded and looked at the opposite side with hesitation. The howling cold wind blew by. He raised his hand and rubbed his cold cheek. The moment he put his hand down, the formation on the opposite side changed, and General Fengzi's flag began to move.

On the city wall, countless pairs of eyes looked at the approaching cavalry below. As he looked carefully, Zhu Yongqing's eyes suddenly widened. He took a step forward, put his hands on the wall stacks, and leaned out to look outside.

Behind the black-armored general who came first, six war horses followed closely, three in front and three in back. Three knights sat upright on the horses, holding the reins with one hand and pulling the horses behind them with the other. On top, the three people were tied to the backs of the horses. Above, the headless body of the horse was motionless. Under its neck, its head was shaking for a moment, and its face could not be seen clearly.

"It's Wang Yingxiong and the others." A clear female voice sounded from the side. Zhu Yongqing turned to look at the girl walking over, and his lips trembled: "Maybe not?"

"Wang Yingxiong's body shape is different from ordinary people." Liu Huiniang lowered her beautiful eyes slightly and said softly: "It's not that easy to fake."

Zhu Yongqing closed his eyes. Below him, Fengtai who was standing close by stood at a distance from the bow and arrow range. He drew out his golden unicorn mace, pointed at the city wall and shouted: "Listen to the birds on the city, we have already killed you and all the ambushes. These three birds are here." He reached out and touched the side with his golden mace.

Above the city wall, Liu Huiniang, who had a calm and indifferent face, opened her eyes wide, took a quick step, supported the wall with both hands, stared at the golden mace that Feng Tai pointed out horizontally, screamed in grief, bit her lip with her teeth, and blood flowed out.

The people next to him turned around when they heard the sound, their eyes slightly puzzled.

Below, a cavalryman raised Wei Yangyin's head and pointed it upward. Then Fengtai raised his mace and pointed upward: "He is here. If you want him, come and welcome him back."

Further away, a soldier carrying a wooden stake ran to the middle of the two armies. The wooden mallet was swung, and with a dull sound, the wooden stake stood on the ground.

Fengtai immediately turned the reins and turned around. Three people and six cavalrymen behind him hurriedly followed. Not long after, a corpse was tied to a wooden stake, and the downcast face could be vaguely seen.

"Shameless thieves!" Zhu Yongqing gritted his steel teeth and turned around suddenly: "I will go and get Master's body back."

"Don't go!"

A sharp female voice suddenly sounded, and the steps he took stopped, and the armor on his body made a crashing sound. The young man turned around with red eyes: "Why?"

"You want to step into such an obvious trap?" The girl who didn't look back stared at the strong man in black armor who was walking away.

"But that's my master!"

An angry voice sounded, and just as Zhu Yongqing was about to take a step, Liu Huiniang behind him shouted in a high-pitched voice: "I know, and I also know that the maces held by the thief below are my brother's relics, so I can't go!"

When the raised foot fell, Zhu Yongqing turned his face in shock, but the girl behind him seemed to have controlled his emotions. She turned around calmly and wiped the blood on her lips. There was a trace of pleading in her almond eyes: "I am with you now." Zhu Lang is the only one left to support him. If something happens to Zhu Lang, what will I do in the future?" "I...Okay!"

As if he had lost all his strength, the young man stood quietly at the crenellations of the city wall, looking at the wooden piles standing in the distance, motionless.

Soon someone came running over and called the front door.

……

Set the time back a bit.

Cries of killing tore through the sky.

On the city wall of Zhujiazhuang, figures wielding weapons kept falling off the wall, and more figures rushed up. Several ladder entrances were stained with blood in the fighting. Xie Ning danced his swords and fought hard against Luan Tingyu and several others. He jumped back up the ladder and pursed his lips tightly, staring at the teacher over there, wishing he could kill him with a knife.

At this time, under the banner, the spinning red rabbit slowly stopped, its pony tail swung, and snorted twice. Lu Bu touched its neck and looked at Du Bu: "How is the situation?"

"We are anxious." The strong man in green dragon armor bowed and said, "Xie Ning's Huan Qi died in the battle. Commander Xie is leading the army to attack fiercely, but the opponent's generals are also very good and have been unable to break through."

He glanced at the city gate in the distance: "Deputy Commander Jin Bigui knocked open the village gate, only to find that the rear was blocked by stones. He was so anxious that he couldn't clear it. He had already led his troops to attack from the ladder, but the progress was not very smooth. The opponent's fighting spirit was Somewhat tenacious.”

Lu Bu pondered for a moment and nodded: "The soldiers in the townships and counties are like this at the beginning. When the war begins, their fighting spirit is the strongest. As time goes by, the anger in their chests dissipates."

The voice paused for a moment, raised his arms, and said in a high-pitched voice: "Blow the drums to cheer! Send an order for the two troops of Sui and Sun to press forward. The two troops of E and Di at the back gate will begin to attack the city in half an hour. Before dark, Take this village."

The soldiers who delivered the order ran out on horseback, and the strong men holding drumsticks beat the war drums. There was a sound of drums and the sound of horse hooves on the ground. After a while, the two flags of Su and Sun began to move, and the soldiers attacking the village began to cheer and shout, and there was a confrontation on the city wall. In this place, the roar of fighting and the sound of clashing weapons shook the sky. Arrows rained down all around. As the two sides fought, figures kept spilling blood and falling.

Li Zhu, who was wearing leather armor, looked at the city wall for a while, winked behind him, stepped forward on his horse, and said with a cup of his hands: "Brother, my little brother and the others have not made any achievements since they went up the mountain. Can you join the attack queue?"

With a glance, the middle-aged man on horseback looked sincere, and the five majestic men behind him looked eager. They nodded slightly: "You are so strong, be careful."

"Thank you, brother!" Li Zhu and the others bowed their hands, and then rode off. A voice came from the wind: "Each of us find a place to attack. Whoever enters the village first, please go back and drink wine for a month!"

The commotion among the generals behind him stopped for a moment. These people had no responsibilities. They just joined the cavalry army temporarily this time. It was excusable to ask for a fight. I and others also had to protect Shuai Qi and his brother. They could not move lightly, so they had to watch. Watching the six people separate into four groups and rush to the bottom of the city wall.

Not long after, the knights sent by Niu Gao Fengtai chased after him and explained the situation. The figure on the red rabbit thought for a moment and shook his head. He did not object. He just ordered the two men to assist the E and Di troops in attacking the back door later, and then looked up. Towards the front.

……

The sun was dim and the cold wind was blowing. Li Zhu, who had dismounted, ran to Xie Ning with his sword in hand: "Thank you for your command, my brother asked my brother to fight, and I came here specifically to obey Xie Ning's command."

"Brother Li, you're welcome. Let's take a rest first and lead the troops up later." Breathing heavily, Xie Ning wiped the sweat from his cheeks with the back of his hand, and the blood-stained skin immediately smeared his face.

"It doesn't matter, Mr. Li is not tired. It would be better to capture this village as soon as possible."

Looking at the two-sword general across from him with smiling eyes, Xie Ning hesitated for a moment and nodded sharply: "Since you are so weak, Brother Li, be careful. There is a man above with a cooked copper stick who is very extravagant."

"Thank you, Commander, for the tip."

Smiling, he raised his hand. Li Zhu took a wooden shield from the sergeant on the side and climbed up the ladder with the golden sword on his back. The sound of arrows flying by echoed in his ears. He raised his hand and waved the jade snow he took from Li Yan. With his sword, he picked up an arrow that was aimed at him. In his peripheral vision, someone fell from beside him. The Taoist tilted his head, and another slender black shadow swished past his hair. The moment he turned his head back, a flash A long spear stabbed down from above.

Swinging the long sword, he cut off the gun shaft in one stroke. He exerted force with his feet and jumped up to the crenel. Immediately, several spears were stabbed at his legs and feet. Without stopping, Li Zhu jumped out with another step. As he swung his long sword, Roads of cold light cut off the long soldiers coming from below. The moment he landed, he waved his shield to the side to block the long sword that was coming. As he moved, he raised his arm and suddenly stretched and retracted it. The sharp sword tip Stab it into the throat and pull it out, blood spraying as Mr. Golden Sword moves.

"Follow me!" The soldiers on the ladder behind were overjoyed when they saw him. They roared and jumped up onto the wall, held up their shields to block the spear heads, then rushed into the crowd and slashed with their swords.

On the side, a figure carrying an octagonal cooked copper stick ran over from the defensive entrance. The moment his eyes fell on Assistant Li, his eyes immediately burst into flames: "How come you have a jade snow sword!"

The spiked stick head was raised to the side, and he rushed over with overwhelming anger and murderous intent.Li Zhu glanced at him and threw the shield violently. Luan Tingyu paused and ducked suddenly. Mr. Jin Jian turned his wrist and stepped forward, and the shadow of the sword suddenly filled his side.

The first person to meet him was Zhuang Yong at the crenellation of the wall. The moment he raised his sword and spear to meet him, he saw a cold light raging in front of him, and the shadow of swords filled the sky. The man wielding the sword somehow slipped past him, and suddenly there was a lot of pain in his throat. A sword mark was made, a burning pain hit, a hissing sound came in the ears, and the blood spurted out and splashed on the people nearby. The smell of blood suddenly became rich, making it nauseating to hear.

"Thief! How dare you—"

Luan Tingyu was furious, stepped on the bluestone, his arms bulged, and the cooked copper stick slammed down on Li Zhu.

On the opposite side, Mr. Jin Jian, who was approaching, made a mistake in his steps. The head of the stick he passed hit the ground, making a deep hole with a bang. He raised the long sword in his hand to his throat. The teacher suddenly tilted his head, and a cold light flashed from his face. And passed.

The sharp edge startled Luan Tingyu, and he jumped back with force. From the corner of his mouth to his temple, a scar opened and blood flowed out.

From the side, Yunlong, who had changed his sword, rushed over: "Teacher Luan, I'm here to help you!" Holding the sword in both hands, he jumped up and struck hard.

"No! Back away!"

In the midst of the exclamation, Luan Tingyu saw the figure holding the sword sliding to the left. The long sword drew an arc on the right side and passed between Yunlong's waist and abdomen.

"what!"

With a scream, Yunlong immediately let go and threw the knife to the ground. He covered his waist with both hands. Blood immediately gushed out from between his fingers. He fainted under his body while breathing. The young man lowered his head in pain, let go of his hand and looked at the colorful flowers. Intestines flowed from the wound.

"Ah - ah -" shouting in horror, the panicked young man tried to stuff his intestines back.

Unfamiliar boots appeared in his eyes. Before he could look up, a cold light hit his neck: "It's so noisy!" He narrowed his eyes and looked to the opposite side. Assistant Li turned his sword hand, and the noise under him suddenly disappeared. .

"you dare--"

"Everyone was killed!"

With a lazy reply, the big man opposite looked at the young man who died tragically and picked up the stick again: "What a prodigy! Tell me where you got the sword in your hand!"

"Of course I got it from the dead." The middle-aged man stepped back and took two steps back, holding the long sword. The long sword danced, and the fast sword immediately pressed down on the opponent. His eyes widened in excitement: "It's like this .”

A clanking sound resounded between the long sword and the wrought copper stick. The teacher, who was trying to block it, began to retreat. He looked angrily at the opponent who was furiously attacking and stabbing. At the same time, the shadow of the sword that he still had enough energy to swing passed by Zhuang Yong's side. In the throat, the next moment, the man who knew that he could no longer retreat stopped, summoned his might, and swung his stick forward violently.

puff--

The long sword was nailed into the chest and passed through the chest. Luan Tingyu stared at the figure throwing the long sword across from him with wide eyes. As he staggered back, the sword wielder drew another long sword and started to kill Zhuang Yong beside him.

His eyes quickly moved down, and with a loud crash, the front of him turned into black masonry, and then fell into darkness.
