The Jagged Cavalry of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 258 Chapter 257 Conflict Escalation
Zhang Liao and Lu Su came to Xunyang together, and the army was stationed on the bank of the Xunyang River, while Lu Su went straight to Xunyang County to appease the families of the soldiers who died in battle.

Just as Zhang Liao set up camp on the bank, someone came in and reported, "General Qi, a group of people came outside the camp. The two leaders claimed to be Zhang Wu and Chen Sun, and they said they had come to join the general. , There are still very important things to discuss with the general!"

The names of Zhang Wu and Chen Sun were no longer unfamiliar to Zhang Liao. The conflict with Liu Biaojun this time was also caused by these two talents. Speaking of which, these two people were the culprits.Originally Zhang Liao wanted to arrest Zhang Wu and Chen Sun and behead them for public display, but after thinking about it, Zhang Wu and Chen Sun were also victims in this incident, and the real murderers should be Huang She, Gan Ning, and Su Fei.

So Zhang Liao ordered Zhang Wu and Chen Sun to be invited into the big tent.

After a while, Zhang Wu and Chen Sun went straight to the big tent. As soon as they entered the big tent, they knelt down on the ground in unison, then kowtowed three times to Zhang Liao, and finally said in unison: "Sir, general!" Zhang Wu, Chen Sun, kowtow to General Huya!"

Zhang Liao saw that Zhang Wu and Chen Sun were both powerful men of Kong Wu, especially Zhang Wu, who was tall and muscular, with a fierce look in his wide-eyed eyes, and on his face, there was a The scar, the scar was deep, as if it had sunk into the flesh of his face, even though he was expressionless, he didn't look kind.

On the contrary, Chen Sun was short and thin, with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks, but his small eyes were full of light, and he looked very clever.

After Zhang Liao sized up Zhang Wu and Chen Sun, he said, "You two, please get up quickly and give me your seat!"

After Zhang Wu and Chen Sun thanked Zhang Liao, they slowly stood up from the ground, and sat down on their seats without being polite.

"The two of you have worked really hard to escape from Jiangxia all the way here. Are you willing to work for me this time when you join my tent?" Zhang Liao asked.

Zhang Wudao: "This is natural. The general is invincible and invincible. We have never had a chance to meet the general. When I met the general today, he was indeed quite majestic. Since we have chosen to join the general, we will naturally obey the general's command." In addition, in order to show our sincerity, I present a BMW to the general, and I hope the general will accept it."

Zhang Liao asked suspiciously, "BMW? Where are you now?"

Zhang Wudao: "It's just outside the tent, the general can come out with the little one to see what's going on!"

After speaking, Zhang Liao, accompanied by Zhang Wu and Chen Sun, came outside the tent together. As soon as he got out of the big tent, Zhang Liao suddenly saw a brown war horse tied to the big banner outside the tent. He is tall and tall, but on the forehead of the war horse, there is this diamond-shaped white spot, which happens to be in the middle of the two eyes of the horse. It is a good horse.

"It really is a fine horse." Zhang Liao is also a horse lover. Ancient horses are like modern cars. Owning a war horse is equivalent to owning a car, and it is worth showing off.And if you have the best among horses, you will be even more arrogant.

"General, the name of this horse is Lu. It was originally a mount that was snatched from elsewhere. Today, the younger one gave this horse to the general. I hope the general will accept it with a smile." Zhang Wu said casually.

Zhang Liao nodded, walked to the side of the big banner involuntarily, stretched out his hand to caress for a moment, and immediately fell in love with it.

Afterwards, Zhang Liao untied the horse's reins, jumped on the horse's back, and shouted "drive", the Lu Ma galloped out, and in a short time, it was gone in a flash, and the speed was extremely brisk.

Zhang Liao was so happy that he was so happy. After walking around the camp, he returned to the camp of the Chinese army. He reined in the horse and refused to jump off the horse. Immediately he said to Zhang Wu and Chen Sun: "Since the two of you have surrendered to me, I will naturally not treat you badly. You each receive the post of military commander and lead your subordinates into the barracks."

Zhang Wudao: "General, we came here to take refuge. The first thing is to take refuge. The second is to seek revenge from Huang Zu. I have already found out that Huang She led the army and has returned to Xiazhi. If the general is willing to take us to Xiazhi Kill Huang She, we will be grateful to the general!"

Zhang Liao thought about it for a while, and felt that Zhang Wu and Chen Sun had come here to seek refuge and give away BMWs, so he immediately said to Zhang Wu: "It's not too late for a gentleman to take revenge, not to mention that Huang She has retreated to Xiazhi. If I lead the army If you go there rashly, you will definitely startle Huang She, and I'm afraid you will steal a lot of money."

Zhang Wudao: "General, I am willing to lead my troops to fight against the pheasants and lure Huang She to send troops to Xunyang. As long as the general is willing to send troops to help and kill Huang She for us, even if I die, I will not die." I'm a little sorry."

Zhang Liao thought very quickly, thinking that Zhang Wu's strategy was good, he immediately nodded and said, "Okay, I promise you, as long as you can bring Huang She's army to Xunyang, I will get rid of Huang She for you."

"Thank you, General!" Zhang Wu and Chen Sun were overjoyed. After receiving the order, they immediately went outside the camp to rectify the soldiers and horses. With hundreds of remnants and small boats that had been prepared, they started heading towards Xiazhi County, Jiangxia County. upstream.

Here, Zhang Liao made some preparations. He first withdrew his camp on the bank, and then hid his soldiers and horses in the bushes on the bank, quietly waiting for Huang She to arrive.

Zhang Wu and Chen Sun worked hard all the way to Xiazhi County, and with hundreds of brothers, they started to make a big fuss, burning, killing and looting.

Huang She was stationed in Xiazhi County, and he was still immersed in joy. Suddenly, someone came to report that the two thieves Zhang Wu and Chen Sun had landed ashore at some time, and they were leading their troops to burn, kill and loot in nearby villages. .

"Damn it, these two thieves came at just the right time. I've been looking for them everywhere." Huang She slapped his thigh immediately when he heard this, and said indignantly.

Huang She strode out of the county government's mansion, rode on his horse, and headed straight for the school grounds. Then he ordered Gan Ning, Su Fei and many other soldiers, and with [-] soldiers and horses, they headed all the way to the place where Zhang Wu and Chen Sun made trouble. Hurry up, they are going to capture Zhang Wu and Chen Sun alive, and then escort them to Xiangyang to ask for credit!

Zhang Wu and Chen Sun had already sent out spies to closely monitor Huang She's every move. Once they got news, they would come back and pass it on.

Zhang Wu and Chen Sun were taking a rest in Liushu Village when they suddenly saw the spies they had sent back and told them that Huang She had already set off with his army, and still led a hundred cavalry towards Liushu Village with Gan Ning as the vanguard .

Zhang Wu and Chen Sun were already frightened by Gan Ning. When they heard Gan Ning's name, they were frightened for a while. Without saying a word, they immediately led the people back the way they came. Before leaving, they set fire to Liushu Village.

When Gan Ning led the cavalry to arrive, the whole Liushu Village had been turned into a sea of ​​flames. Gan Ning asked the cavalry to search around, but they didn't find anything, even the corpses disappeared.

Gan Ning predicted that Zhang Wu and Chen Sun would not be far away, so he asked people to find the footprints, and followed the footprints, chasing them all the way forward.

Liushu Village is not too far from the river bank, only more than 20 miles away. As soon as Zhang Wu, Chen Sun and others arrived at the river bank, they heard the sound of horseshoes rolling from the embankment on the river bank, which was deafening from far to near.

Zhang Wu and Chen Sun looked up, but they saw that Gan Ning was the first to come into their sight, followed by successive cavalry teams, about 100 people, which should be Gan Ning's vanguard.

Even so, Zhang Wu and Chen Sun didn't dare to step forward, after all, Gan Ning was too powerful, both of them suffered from Gan Ning's losses, and were frightened by Gan Ning's bravery.

"Hurry up and get on the boat!" Zhang Wu hurriedly called his men to jump on the boat that had been prepared, then cut the cable and went down the river.

Gan Ning rode his horse to the shore and saw that Zhang Wu, Chen Sun and others had escaped by boat. When he was in a state of anxiety, he suddenly saw Huang She and Su Fei going down the river in a boat. They happened to arrive here to meet Gan Ning , A group of people started chasing Zhang Wu and Chen Sun again.

Zhang Wu and Chen Sun were in light boats, which were very convenient. There were more than ten people sitting on each light boat, and they disappeared along the current.

The boat that Huang She and Su Fei were on was much larger than a light boat, and they had picked up Gan Ning on the shore, so they lagged behind Zhang Wu and Chen Sun in terms of time. After the people got on the boat, they immediately went down the river, chasing Zhang Wu and Chen Sun.

A group of people chased along the way, and soon entered the Xunyang River, and Huang She was getting closer to Zhang Wu and Chen Sun.

"Fire the arrows!" Huang She gave an order, and ordered the archers to shoot arrows at the bandits on the light boat not far ahead.

"Whoosh whoosh..."

Arrows rained down for a while, but it was not satisfactory. Because the light boat was constantly moving, the arrows missed them.

However, more than a dozen people fell into the water with arrows.

Seeing Huang She chasing after Zhang Wu and Chen Sun, if they don't go ashore, they will be caught up soon, and then they will all be shot and killed by Huang She.

After a while, Zhang Wu and Chen Sun gradually approached the shore. Before the light boat stopped, Zhang Wu, Chen Sun and others jumped out of the light boat and jumped onto the shore. In the middle of the day, when they swam to the shore, it was important to escape, and the group looked very embarrassed.

At this time, Huang She drove the big boat to chase, gradually approached the shore, and began to shoot with bows and arrows. Arrows like locusts flew in the air continuously, shooting and killing Zhang Wu and Chen Sun's subordinates, and more than 200 people died.

After the ship came to a complete stop, Huang She ordered people to put down the plank. Gan Ning was the first to ride off the ship on his horse, landed on the plank, and chased Zhang Wu and Chen Sun with a big knife.

In a short while, Huang She and other 2000 people went ashore and chased them deep into the shore.After walking for about two miles, they suddenly heard the sound of a clapper, and countless arrows were shot from the woods. The subordinates led by Huang She, Gan Ning, Su Fei and others were immediately shot down, leaving only a few hundred people.

"Kill!"

At this time, Zhang Liao rode his horse and raised his gun, and rushed out suddenly, led the cavalry and infantry from the forest, and surrounded Huang She, Gan Ning, Su Fei and others.
