Chapter 296: Zhang Gui’s Death at Yangping Pass (6)

"Where are Lieutenant Lu and Lieutenant Feng?" After finally breaking out of the siege, Xu Song grabbed Feng Zhiyuan and asked hurriedly.

There were blood stains on the corners of Feng Zhiyuan's mouth: "They were all killed by the Qin army, and they also chopped off the heads of Brother Lu and Brother Feng."

"Mao Xing, this treacherous villain, an old thief with a gray beard, I must cut off his head to pay tribute to my brothers who died in vain!" Xu Song threw the sword in his hand out, and the sound of breaking through the air came out, the sword was accurate

Insert the word "Liang" on the plaque on the gate of Liangzhou Governor's Mansion.

"Of course Mao Xing wants to be killed, but now that our troops are scattered, the most important thing is to evacuate Nanzheng." Feng Zhiyuan had already tied a white towel on his head to stop the bleeding. There was not much flesh left on his body at this moment.

"By the way, where is the general?"

After finally breaking out of the siege, Xu Song and Feng Zhiyuan realized that they had not seen Zhang Gui since they left the table.

After Xu Song looked around, he hurriedly wiped the blood on his cheek. He gasped: "Let's go separately! We split up to find the general. If we can't find him within half an hour, we can only leave and worry about it. Brother Lu is here

Dongmen met us, first left Nanzheng and then planned to rescue the general."

"That's all we can do." Feng Zhiyuan didn't say much about this. After all, the Qin soldiers were so many and powerful, and the hard fight at this time was just an egg against a stone, which was really not worth it.

"Walk!"

The two separated at the Governor's Mansion, and the two teams disappeared into the night with the two...

Seven days later, Yecheng.

"My lord, my lord is not good!"

Early in the morning, while Xu Zongwen was still dancing with his sword, he heard Zhang Si shouting loudly outside the door. He seemed to sense a hint of crisis, so he immediately put down his sword. After wiping his sweat, Zhang Si had already approached.

"Why are you so panicked?" After Xu Zongwen drank a cup of tea handed over by Murong Ling, he then raised his eyes and looked at Zhang Si who was in a hurry.

Zhang Si hesitated for a moment, still daring not to speak.

When Xu Zongwen saw this, he felt suspicious, and even Zhang Si, a straight-faced man, didn't dare to speak. It didn't seem to be a good thing!

He frowned slightly and snatched the military report from Zhang Si's hand. The first thing that caught his eye was the four words "Hanzhong Military Report".

Hanzhong? Isn't Zhang Gui attacking Nanzheng? What could happen there?

Xu Zongwen couldn't wait to open the military report made on the bamboo slip. As the military report unfolded, Xu Zongwen's eyes became wider and wider. He squeezed the bamboo slip hard, gritted his teeth, and his brows did not relax for a moment, and finally his whole face began to distort.

stand up!

"Bang!" Xu Zongwen threw the military newspaper out, "Old thief Mao Xing, how dare you!"

"Ah!" Xu Zongwen yelled after scolding Mao Xing, and then the qi and blood in his organs went backwards, his throat felt sweet, and Xu Zongwen immediately spurted out a mouthful of blood!

"Lord!" Zhang Si was about to step forward to help Xu Zongwen, who was unsteady, but was stopped by Xu Zongwen raising his hand.

"Xu Lang!" After observing silently for a long time, Murong Ling took advantage of the situation to support Xu Zongwen. Xu Zongwen took advantage of the situation and sat on the stone steps under the eaves, his hands already turned into fists.

Even the knuckles of Xu Zongwen's hands buckled due to excessive force and made a clicking sound!

Xu Zongwen's chest was heaving, and the whites of his eyes were already red. He raised his eyes and looked at the empty front, with some doubt in his tone: "Is this military report sent by the Jin Yiwei?"

"Back to my lord, no, it was sent by Lu Ming, the noble man." Zhang Si immediately knelt down behind him and explained hesitantly: "The brother who sent the letter had to kill three horses before he could deliver the military report. Just now

After saying that General Zhang was killed and fell into a coma outside the mansion, I’m afraid this military report cannot be false!”

"Lü Min? How come his sixth brother died in Nanzheng but he was able to return to Shangyong unharmed?" Although Xu Zongwen's tone was calm and plain, Zhang Gui's death made him unable to accept it for a moment, and even the captains of the Anqin Army were shocked.

It was already starting to disgust him!

Zhang Si knew that Xu Zongwen's calmness was just that he was deliberately suppressing the anger in his heart. Who knew whether there would be a violent storm at the next moment? So he did not dare to relax for a moment, so he had to answer truthfully: "Back to my lord, Mao Xing got drunk in the name of a banquet."

The six generals took him hostage and killed the school captain Lu Cunxu, Feng Yi, Lu Min, and Xu Song later realized that he had an excuse to leave..."

"After that, Lu Min and Xu Song summoned their old troops to rescue the Sixth General, but in the end they only rescued Feng Zhiyuan. The three of them learned that the Sixth General was killed and had to flee Nanzheng. Xicheng City was small and shallow, and it was difficult to stop Mao Xing's pursuit.

They can only..."

The news that Nanzheng was gained and lost, and that Zhang Gui was killed at Yangpingguan, was like a bomb exploding in Xu Zongwen's heart, which frightened him so much that he couldn't calm down for a long time.

After hearing the cause and effect of the incident, Xu Zongwen sat on the stone steps with a livid face and said nothing, while Zhang Si stood behind him with his sword pressed. Although Zhang Si was worried, he could only guard Xu Zongwen with an indifferent expression.

Murong Ling held Xu Zongwen's broad shoulders with one hand and stroked Xu Zongwen's hot chest up and down with the other hand, trying to calm Xu Zongwen's anger.

"My lord!" Zhang San stepped through the door and walked quickly to the corridor. After the ceremony, he reported: "My lord, Xue Caopu, Xi Yangwei, and Xu Xiaowei want to see my lord."

"Say yes, say yes -" The never-before-seen coldness on Xu Zongwen's face caused the surroundings to fall into a state of solemnity! Zhang San's voice even trembled a little.

"What did you say?" Xu Zongwen was a little impatient. He was already in a bad mood, and just now he vomited a mouthful of blood. He was worried and angry. At this moment, he didn't want to see anyone.

Zhang San heard that Xu Zongwen's words were wrong and immediately replied: "Everyone already knows that the six generals died in Nanzheng's defeat. Xu Xiaowei asked for orders to lead troops south to Hanzhong to avenge the six generals——"

Xu Zongwen tilted his head and interrupted Zhang Si: "I remember, didn't Mr. Auxiliary Officer send a message three days ago that the right servant of Yan State shot Zhao Qiu and was on his way to Yecheng?"

"Yes, my lord, according to the calendar, we will arrive in Yecheng in these two days." Although Zhang Si didn't know why Xu Zongwen suddenly mentioned Zhao Qiu, Xu Zongwen could only answer truthfully since he asked him.

"Tell Xue Zan to go see Zhao Qiu on my behalf and negotiate peace with Yan!" Xu Zongwen's eyes flashed with light, and tears seemed to be hidden inadvertently.

"But one thing is that Yecheng must belong to me, the Jin Dynasty, and the Yan army must not get involved for at least three years!"

Xu Zongwen's most important purpose in coming to Yecheng this time was to avenge Zhu Xu. Now that the plan was completed, he originally wanted to make further progress. However, Nanzheng fell, and the instigator Mao Xing was still stationed in Hanzhong, making Xu Zongwen really unable to sit back and watch.

.

"promise!"

"Tell Xi Hui and Xu Wen not to be distracted by this matter, train your troops well, and wait for my orders at any time."

"My lord, Xue Caopu said he would recommend someone to you." When Xu Zongwen stood up, Zhang San came up.

"Forget it today, let's wait another day!" Murong Ling put on the fox fur for Xu Zongwen. Xu Zongwen stopped. In this situation, he no longer had any interest in meeting anyone.

When Xu Zongwen stepped into the inner room with one foot, Yang Zhong, a member of the Imperial Bodyguard Division, suddenly came in, approached Xu Zongwen and said a few words.

When Xu Zongwen heard this, his expression changed, and he actually got up and walked out.

"Xu Lang!" Murong Ling's beautiful eyes turned. Although she didn't know what was going on, she was afraid that Xu Zongwen was not feeling well at the moment. She would be absolutely worried if she didn't ask a doctor to check his pulse.

Xu Zongwen did not stop his slow pace, but just comforted her with a few words before leaving, telling her not to worry and to wait for his return at home.

Outside the house, Xi Hui and Xu Wen rode away, and Xue Zan also said goodbye. However, Dao Yanzhi, who was walking with him, moved his ears. He turned his head and looked at Xu Zongwen's disappearing back with interest, and secretly stretched his ears.
