Chapter 335 Xiliang Reinforcements
Cheng Yin didn't have time to react. A cold light flashed, and his head flew up. The mount rushed several feet away with the headless body before falling to the ground.
Wang's double circle horse turned back, picked up Cheng Yin's head, and laughed loudly: "Uncle Cheng is right, today is the day you die!"
Returning to the front of the formation, Kou Feng, who was plundering the formation, smiled and said, "I thought it was time for me to go on stage just now, but I didn't want the general to have other plans."
Wang Shuang chuckled and said: "This dragging knife trick is really easy to use!"
"So you've been practicing General Guan's special moves these days?" Kou Feng was surprised.
"Let's go, go back and ask for merit first!" This was Wang Shuang's first time killing a general and performing meritorious service, and he was very excited.
The two men led the troops to retreat, leaving behind only Cheng Yin's body and the panic-stricken Xiliang army.
Back at the camp, Zhang Fei had been waiting at the door. Seeing them come back with heads in hand, he knew they had succeeded.
He took the two men to the Chinese army's tent and presented Cheng Yin's head. Liu Qi commended the two men and all the generals congratulated them.
Liang Xing was filled with envy and sighed: "Sure enough, famous teachers give birth to great disciples. General Zhang only gave instructions for a few days before he beheaded Cheng Yin."
Liu Qi was also very happy to have another strong general. He waved his hand and said: "Let's start the banquet!"
The entire battalion celebrated their victory. In the big tent, Wang Shuang, witnessed by Zhao Yun and others, worshiped Zhang Fei as his master.
Zhang Fei had already knitted a hat out of willow branches. It was very delicate and inlaid with several flowers. He learned this skill from Liu Bei.
He put it on for Wang Shuang himself and said with emotion: "Although I got married early, I have spent half my life wandering around. My children are still young, and I am worried that no one will inherit my talents. It is really God's will that I meet Wang Shuang this time."
"Master, I will practice martial arts well and never disgrace your reputation."
Wang Shuangde's face turned purple. From an orphan in a remote village in the western border to a disciple of a famous general, anyone else would be extremely excited.
Zhang Fei was greatly pleased. He patted Wang Shuang and told him: "Being a general should not rely solely on military bravery. I hope you will be both civil and military in the future. I have chosen the word Zi Quan for you. You must always remember it."
"Thank you, Master!" Wang Shuang was overjoyed and stood up to thank him.
Touching the wreath on his head, he giggled. From now on, he is also a person with a name!
…
The Han army's camp was full of joy, but the Xiliang army was lifeless and its morale was extremely low.
Han Sui thought that Cheng Yin was the winner, but he was killed by Wang Shuang in the blink of an eye. He ordered people to carry Cheng Yin's body back and ordered that no one should leave the city without permission.
For several days, the two armies were busy building pontoons, and each had ships going to the other side to build water forts to guard against each other and live in peace.
On this day, Han Sui was asking about the war at Horseshoe Bay, when he suddenly saw Han De striding over with a smile on his face, followed by a strong man with a big waist and a round waist, nine feet tall.
"Congratulations, brother Hexi!" Han De laughed as he entered the door and said, "The King of Song has agreed to send troops."
Han Sui was overjoyed. He saw someone coming in and asked, "Who is this general?"
The man cupped his fists and said, "I'm Song Long, the crown prince of the Han Dynasty. I'm here to help in the battle and pay my respects to General Han!"
"It turns out he is a good nephew!" Han Sui looked at Song Long and saw that he was taller than himself. He was very majestic and hurriedly invited him to the table.
After a banquet was held to catch the wind, Han De reported that Song Jian had led his troops to find the Di king Agui. If they knew each other and rescued Ma Chao, they could still gain a foothold in Fuhan. If they didn't, the Di people would be completely exterminated.
Han Sui raised his glass and said with a smile: "I have the help of the King of Song, so why worry about Ma Chao not dying?"
Han De saw no one on either side and asked doubtfully: "Where have the other generals gone?"
Han Sui sighed softly and told Liu Qi about his sneak attack on Horseshoe Bay and how to lure and kill Cheng Yin. Yang Qiu was busy building the bridge and there was no one available for him.
Song Long heard this and said angrily: "Liu Qi has bullied others too much. Let me go and meet him!"
Han Sui hurriedly advised: "Zhang Fei, Zhao Yun is very brave, Wang Shuang cannot be underestimated, and must not underestimate the enemy."
"Hahaha!" Song Long looked up to the sky and laughed loudly: "My martial arts skills were learned from Master Qiangtong after untold hardships. I am here to meet the heroes of the Central Plains."
Han De nodded and said: "The prince is very skilled in martial arts. He can fight with lions and wrestle with yaks. It's a pity that he has spent the past ten years studying martial arts in the distant Qiang. If he comes back in two years, how can he allow Ma Chao to proclaim himself the 'Mighty General'?"
Song Long clenched his fist and said, "One day, I will take back this title myself!"
At this time, Han Sui also urgently needed a big victory to stabilize the morale of the army and boost morale. If this continues, the people will become disorganized and the entire army will turn against him.
So he entertained Song Long cordially and asked him to have a good rest for a day so that he could recharge his batteries and send out troops to take revenge.
Early the next morning, Han Sui ordered his troops and told Han De: "Liu Qi deliberately sent Wang Shuang to deceive Cheng Yin and kill him. Now he can use this trick again: You lead the troops to fight and hide the prince in the army. As long as Zhang Fei
, if Zhao Yun doesn't come out, he can first kill a general to establish his power."
Han De accepted the order, led his troops out of the city, took Song Long as his deputy, and rushed to the Han army's camp.
Tan Ma had already reported the news, and Liu Qi summoned the generals and wondered: "Han Sui knew he was outmatched and had not been out for half a month. Today he suddenly took the initiative to attack. Could it be that reinforcements have arrived?"
Zhang Fei laughed and said: "It doesn't matter who comes, just kill them all!"
During the discussion, the Xiliang army had already arrived, and the generals came out of the camp. They saw that the troops were in order, and one general was in the lead, but it was not Han Sui.
Liang Xing said: "This is Han De, a younger brother of the Han Sui clan. He is also a general and has courage that no man can match."
"Han De?" Liu Qi frowned slightly, feeling that the name sounded familiar.
While thinking about it, Han De stepped out and shouted: "Liu Qi, you didn't take good care of your health in Jingzhou, but you dared to come to Xiliang to run wild. Things here are beyond your control. I advise you to take care of yourself!"
Liu Qi saw that this man was carrying a big ax, which was somewhat similar to Xu Huang. He suddenly thought of a person and laughed and said: "Han De, how many sons do you have now?"
Han De was startled and saw that Liu Qi's answer was not what he asked. Although he didn't know what he meant, he still smiled proudly and said: "A certain man also has two sons, but they have practiced martial arts since they were young. They are very good at bow and horse. They are not comparable to Liu Biao's son!"
"It's a pity that the whole family's bucket is not complete!" Liu Qi glanced at Zhao Yun beside him and sighed slightly.
Zhao Yun looked at Liu Qi doubtfully: "What bucket?"
Judging from his equipment and name, Liu Qi guessed that this guy should be Han De, the famous Xiliang general who was given to the whole family by Zhao Yun in his later years. However, he was only in his twenties and thirties now and had only two sons.
Han De provoked him with words, but when he saw that Liu Qi was indifferent, he ignored him and said angrily: "Liu Qi, do you dare to fight with a certain person?"
Since it was a fateful encounter, Liu Qi was about to let Zhao Yun go into battle when he saw Liang Xing rushing out and shouted: "What kind of status is General Liu, Han De, you are not worthy!"
Seeing that it was Liang Xing who took action, Han De scolded sternly: "You traitor, you are not worthy of fighting me. Where is Song Long?"
Behind the gate flag, Song Long spurred his horse out, holding a Rolling Dragon Elephant Trunk Sword and slashed at Liang Xing without saying a word.
Liang Xing had just deliberately praised Han De as a general of Xiliang, and had long made up his mind to kill this man for meritorious service. Zhang Heng had already taken Horseshoe Bay, and if he didn't work hard, he would be defeated by him.
