1043 Battle Between the Two Armies
"Your Highness, let me go. With your force, it is no problem to break through here. You..." Guo Jia immediately said nervously on Gao Lin's back when he saw this.
"Shut up! I am the King of Generals. I have always been obedient to you, but today, you must listen to me. I will not let you fall into the enemy camp..." As he said that, Gao Lin stretched out his hand and pulled out the sword tied in Guo Jia's waist and handed it directly to Guo Jia's hand. At the same time, he also pulled out the steel knife from his waist, held Guo Jia behind his left hand, and held the steel knife tightly in his right hand, and said to Guo Jia, "Mr., it is difficult for you and my master to fight side by side. Now, let us fight a path of blood!"
"Okay, Your Highness let me down first, let us fight back to back!" Guo Jia understood that he was a burden to Gao Lin. If Gao Lin carried him on his back like this, Gao Lin would not be able to exert his strength at all.
Who knew that Gao Lin shook his head and said to Guo Jia: "What is my teacher thinking? I feel like a mirror in my heart. My teacher has taken good care of me for many years and taught me strategies. Unfortunately, I am too stupid and I have learned less than 10% of my teacher. If I can break through the siege today, I will definitely have to concentrate on learning from my teacher."
After hearing this, Guo Jia was very moved. Tears in his eyes were circling and he said lightly: "If you are like this, what else can you ask for?"
While speaking, the Wu army's cavalry had already stepped on the water and surrounded Gao Lin and Guo Jia. Although the flood in the city had receded a little, the remaining water was still very deep, covering half of the waist. Therefore, the cavalry marched on this terrain and could not show their advantages at all. Although more than twenty cavalry came, they were very slow.
Wu army generals Gao Lin and Guo Jia surrounded a corner of a broken house. A Wu army chief rode on a horse with a spear in his hand and pointed at Gao Lin. Guo Jia shouted loudly: "Your Majesty has an order. When encountering these two people, as long as they are at their heads, they will be rewarded with ten thousand golds and granted the title of Marquis of Ten Thousand Houses!"
Although the soldiers of the Wu army knew this imperial edict, after hearing the words of the governor, no one rushed forward, but stayed quietly in place, just surrounding him but not attacking, and everyone looked at each other.
"You guys rushed forward!" Wu Junmen Chief was anxious, rode his horse and took two steps back, waved his spear forward, and shouted loudly.
However, his words were like a rock sinking into the sea and no one responded to them.
Gao Lin and Guo Jia saw this situation and looked at each other. They had a very tacit understanding in their hearts. At the same time, they opened their mouths and whispered: "They seem to be afraid of me (Your Highness)...."
After saying this, a smile appeared on both of them. Guo Jia said, "Your Highness is the bravest of the three armies. In the last battle, your highness rushed into the Wu army as if he was no one. The Wu army soldiers must have seen it sincerely, afraid of confronting Your Highness. Your Highness can just borrow the fear of your Highness from the Wu army's fear of Your Highness."
Gao Lin nodded, walked forward with a knife, and showed an extremely fierce light in his eyes. He shouted at the Wu army cavalry: "If you don't want to live, come up to me. I promise to send you to see the King of Hell!"
After a loud roar, the Wu army cavalry felt a little scared and they took a few steps back involuntarily. At this time, the army of Wu and the elite soldiers were all taken away by Sun Ce and Zhou Yu, and they met Huang Zhong's army in a place dozens of miles outside the city. There were only one or two thousand people left in the city, responsible for guarding the city and searching for fish that escaped the net. Therefore, the elite soldiers who were slightly inferior to the Wu army in combat were all soldiers of the rear army. That day, many people saw Gao Lin's bravery with their own eyes. Later, Gao Lin's bravery was widely circulated among the soldiers in the army. One passing through ten, ten passing through hundreds of people. Soon, the words "must avoid Gao Lin when you see Gao Lin" spread among the lower-level officers and soldiers of the Wu army.
At this moment, they accidentally met Gao Lin and didn't want to surround him, but because the reward from Wu State was so tempting, as long as anyone could kill Gao Lin, they could reach the sky in one step. No one was willing to give up on such a thing.
After seeing this, the Wu Jun Gate Commander immediately shouted: "I'm afraid... what are you afraid of? No matter how strong he is, he is still alone. We have more than 20 people, and he still has a person on his back. If we kill him together, we will definitely be able to kill him. No matter who kills them, we will make an appointment to win each other's brothers after receiving the reward. From then on, we will enjoy endless wealth and honor, wouldn't it be wonderful?"
This sentence expresses the inner thoughts of the Wu army soldiers. More than 20 people gathered up the courage, then turned over and dismounted, jumped into the accumulated water, holding various weapons, and began to gather together.
Seeing this, Gao Lin had already made plans in his heart. More than 20 people were nothing to him, just kill him. So he put Guo Jia off his back and said to Guo Jia: "My teacher retreats, I will deal with them, and I will carry you again!"
Guo Jia had no complaints, but was happy. In this way, Gao Lin had no burden and the person on the other side was no match.
Just as the battle was about to begin, a group of cavalry suddenly rushed from a corner. The leader was wearing a chain of armor and holding an iron whip. His vicissitudes were filled with his whole face, his eyebrows and beard were all gray. It was Huang Gai, a veteran general of the Wu army.
Huang Gai turned his face and saw Gao Lin surrounded by more than 20 soldiers. His eyes lit up and he said secretly: "I finally found you."
"Everyone comes with me!" Huang Gai shouted to the more than a hundred cavalry behind him, turned his head, and galloped towards Gao Lin.
Gao Lin and the soldiers of the Wu army both noticed this change. Gao Lin's face became a little heavier, while the soldiers of the Wu army were ecstatic. When they saw Huang Gai coming with more than a hundred personal guards, they felt extremely excited.
Huang Gai was still a distance away from here, and the cavalry was walking slowly in this environment. Gao Lin seized the opportunity and took the initiative. He jumped to the front of the Wu Jun Gate Chief with a quick turn. The steel knife in his hand was swung out instantly. The cold sword light flashed in front of the Wu Jun, and a head flew directly into the air. A stream of passionate blood gushed out quickly.
Gao Lin had no hesitation in his hand, and the sword was sharp. While the other soldiers were still surprised by the change, the steel knife had quickly cut out five or six times. The heads of the five or six people closest to Gao Lin directly left their bodies. The corpse was poured into the water, and the blood dyed the surrounding water into blood red.
The psychological defense line of Wu Jun soldiers was completely collapsed at this time and they fled to the side, fearing that they would be the next target.
"Teacher, go quickly!" Gao Lin shouted at Guo Jia in the corner of the wall, and picked up a crossbow of Wu soldiers, holding the crossbow and shot at Huang Gai and others who were gradually approaching.
"Swoosh swish swish..."
The Wu army's crossbow was given by the China Kingdom, but it is still in the stage of single-arrow continuous firing. Unlike the China Kingdom, it can fire ten pieces at a time and can be repeatedly fired in a very short time. But even so, the crossbow arrows shot from the crossbow can still be shot to death with the crossbow within such a short distance.
Huang Gai's arrow flew towards him and hurriedly blocked one with an iron whip. The arrow behind him came too quickly, so he couldn't take back the iron whip and could only hide himself from his body. But in this way, the crossbow arrows flew over Huang Gai's head and shot a cavalry behind Huang Gai. Only a few "puff puff" sounds were heard, and the arrows shot into the throat of the Wu army soldiers, roaring through the arrows.
Several screams came from behind. Huang Gai turned his head and looked at him. Several cavalrymen had died. When he raised his head again, he saw Gao Lin running forward with Guo Jia on his back, turning around a street and disappeared from his sight.
"Chasing! Chase me all, never let Gao Lin and Guo Jia escape!" Seeing that the cooked duck suddenly flew away from the pot, Huang Gai was not in a hurry, and shouted loudly.
Huang Gai whipped the horse faster than ordinary soldiers, but as soon as he rushed to the corner, he had not had time to let the horse turn, suddenly a cold light flashed out of the corner, and a cold steel knife just crossed right in front of him, and it was in his throat. The horse under his seat rushed too fiercely, and it happened very suddenly. He had never expected this situation. Even if he stopped immediately, it was still too late.
So Huang Gai could only stare at his frightened eyes and watch his neck hitting the extremely sharp knife edge.
The horse rushed over, but the person carrying the horse's back was already in a different place. A head flew into the air, and the headless corpse on the horse's back also fell into the water.
The blood-stained steel knife was raised directly into the air, and the tip of the knife was directly inserted into Huang Gai's head. The person holding the steel knife was Gao Lin.
Huang Gai's head suddenly became different, which surprised the soldiers behind him. They didn't see clearly what was going on. Huang Gai's head had fallen into Gao Lin's hand, and Gao Lin stood there with blood in blood. He took off the head on the tip of the knife with his left hand, grabbed it in his hand, and placed the steel knife in his chest with his right hand. An extremely fierce light appeared in his blood-filled eyes, like a hungry tiger, staring at the more than a hundred personal soldiers behind Huang Gai.
"Let's rush over together!" Gao Lin roared angrily, his voice like thunder.
When Huang Gai's personal soldiers saw that their chief general was dead, they all made up their minds and rushed towards Gao Lin yellingly, wanting to avenge Huang Gai.
However, after they rushed a few steps, more than fifty soldiers from the Dragon Scale Army suddenly emerged behind Gao Lin, Ma Dai, Gan Xiaoning, Guo Huai, Zhang Xiong, Zang Ai and others all carried crossbows and shot at the group of cavalry.
For a moment, arrows were like rain. Under the powerful crossbow arrows, more than a hundred cavalrymen were quickly overturned by the shot people and fell into the water. After shooting through the arrows, the soldiers of the Dragon Scale Army rushed up one after another and killed those who were not dead with the weapons in their hands. The entire battle ended in an instant.
At this time, Guo Jia hurriedly said, "Your Highness, take advantage of the present, it is the time for us to break out of the city."
Gao Lin nodded and said to Zhang Xiong: "Dragon Scale Army, are you the only ones left?"
Zhang Xiong nodded and said, "Only we are left, many brothers have been killed by the flood, and some of them have died in the search of the Wu army. We finally got together. Before we saw Your Highness, we were uneasy, so we joined our troops and came to find Your Highness. When we heard the sound of fighting here just now, we ran over. Fortunately, we met Your Highness, which finally made us feel at ease."
"It's a pity that when the flood came, my King's Fang Tian Painting Halberd was lost..." Gao Lin said lightly.
"Your Highness, we are about to fight out now. The Wu army suddenly transferred the army out. It must be General Huang's army that has arrived. Maybe it is fighting fiercely with General Huang at this time. As for Fang Tian's painting halberd, after we break through the siege, we will bring reinforcements and rob Shouchun, and then come and find it again!" Guo Jia said.
Gao Lin nodded and said, "Okay, as long as you are still here, our Dragon Scale Army will not be destroyed. Now, follow me and kill the city."
As soon as they finished speaking, everyone rushed towards the city gate together. They passed countless ruins washed by floods along the way. Seeing that the bodies of the people in the city were still scattered everywhere, some floating in the accumulated water, Gao Lin felt extremely painful in his heart.
At this moment, the invincible myth created by the Dragon Scale Army led by him in the Northwest War Zone was finally broken. At the same time, the five thousand Dragon Scale Army that gathered all outstanding soldiers were less than one hundred. This painful price will be remembered in his heart forever.
Although the rest of the people didn't say it, their hearts were so heavy. The glorious Dragon Scale Army, which was once glorious and arrogant, was facing an unprecedented disaster at this time. No one knows what will happen in the future.
Guo Jia knew in his heart that the weakening of the Dragon Scale Army had both advantages and disadvantages. At least Gao Fei would not worry about Gao Lin's army anymore, but Gao Lin would not be confident of speaking without this army. He even planned everything for Gao Lin, and went down to the point that he prayed to disband the Dragon Scale Army, allowing outstanding generals such as Ma Dai, Gan Xiaoning, Guo Huai, Zhang Xiong, Zang Ai to enter the various armies and hold important positions. In this way, he could further control the military power. Even if he was not the prince in the future, for the special system of military and political separation in China, controlling the military power would be equivalent to controlling half of the country.
Gao Lin and others did not encounter any decent resistance along the way, and easily broke out of the city and fled northwest.
At this moment, Sun Ce, Zhou Yu, Han Dang, Cheng Pu and others were still fighting fiercely with Huang Zhong in the muddy wilderness. The important weapons carried by China were all soaked in water and had long lost their function. Now they can only fight hand-to-hand with the enemy and compete with courage.
The melee continued until the evening, and at this time, a large sunset appeared in the sky, reflecting the entire sky red. Under the sunset, there was a battlefield of blood. Within a radius of five miles, corpses were everywhere, blood flowed into a river, and the dark red mud and water echoed each other, forming a perfect unity.
At this time, the battle stopped temporarily, and the battle that had been hard for a day finally came to an end. Both the Wu army and the Chinese army paid a heavy price in this battle.
In the dense forest, Huang Zhong, who was injured, had already taken out the arrow after being treated by a military doctor, but because the arrow penetrated deep into the bone marrow, the entire arm could not move. For Huang Zhong, who was already old, even if he could break out, his wound would take a long time to heal. Moreover, it will bring great sequelae to his arm in the future, and he may never be able to raise a weapon again.
Huang Zhong is not a left-handed and has always held a knife with his right hand. After being seriously injured at this time, the military doctor did not even dare to tell Huang Zhong about his serious injuries.
In the sunset, the battlefield was full of blood. Huang Zhong leaned against a tree and fell asleep. Zhu Ling, Mao Jie, Lu Qian and Li Tong were all surrounded there. Seeing Huang Zhong's face pale, he felt sad.
General Dong Zhao called the military doctor to another place and asked about Huang Zhong's injuries. When he learned that Huang Zhong might not be able to hold the weapon in his right arm in the future, his heart was also very heavy. He looked at the blood-red sky and looked around the tired soldiers around him, saying to the military doctor: "This matter comes out of your mouth and my ears. I can never mention it to the third person again. From then on, it will rot in your stomach. Do you understand?"
The military doctor knew very well that if others knew about this, it would affect the morale of the army. At this time, it was the time when the morale of the army was most needed, and Huang Zhong was also the backbone of the entire army and could not make any mistakes. He hated him and suddenly bit his tongue with his teeth, endured the huge pain, bit off his tongue alive, and then spit it into his palm, holding the half-blooded tongue, he grinned and smiled foolishly at Dong Zhao.
Dong Zhao was very surprised by the military doctor's behavior. His originally gloomy face became even more gloomy. He hugged the military doctor and said caringly: "You...why are you?"
The military doctor couldn't speak at all, but his face was filled with joy. Maybe it was because of this.
Dong Zhao hurriedly called other military doctors to treat him, and said to the outside world that the military doctor accidentally bit off his tongue.
