Chapter 690 Shuzhong Second Commander(1/3)
Yu Desheng walked out of the woods and looked at the fight at the post house, thinking that Ma Jing's arrangement was still sound.
The killing formation formed by three hundred people against Zhang Jue was like a dragnet with nowhere to escape.
Li Xia also happened to be online.
If it hadn't been for the Sichuan Zhizhi envoy and the Zhizhe deputy envoy, two generals, who hid in the post house outside the city to discuss secretly, I'm afraid there would not have been such a good opportunity.
What killed them was their conspiracy and ambition.
"After receiving so much favor from the country, why are you not willing to loyally protect the country of the Song Dynasty? You are really greedy for profit..."
Yu Desheng sighed softly, feeling regretful that today he had to personally destroy the two most illustrious generals of the younger generation of the Song Dynasty.
But this is our position, rebellion will never be tolerated.
"Peng!"
Something was thrown at the door of the inn, followed by a loud noise and flesh and blood flying.
More than a hundred elite Song troops from Chongqing were attacking the gate. More than ten of them were filing in, and five or six of them were immediately blown over...
Yu Desheng narrowed his eyes.
It was far away, but he could tell it was a thunderbolt.
Not surprising.
The problem is that the thunderbolt does not injure people with iron pieces, but seems to rely solely on the power of gunpowder.
Thinking of Jia Sidao's reminder again, Yu Desheng understood many things.
"It is indeed him, the evil minister of the ages..."
"Peng!"
Five or six thunderbolt cannons were thrown in succession, forcing Ningjiang's soldiers to dare not attack the gate head-on.
After that, more than 20 people rushed straight out of the gate.
Ma Jing stood there holding a crossbow, his eyes filled with murderous intent.
He saw Zhang Jue in the formation of twenty people, each holding a big axe, and he rushed directly towards the Ningjiang army of more than a hundred people.
Ma Jing had known for a long time that Zhang Jue had a group of ax soldiers, who often used them as vanguards to break into enemy formations during battles. They always had miraculous effects, and now he actually saw them.
But there were only about twenty people.
"Surround them!"
Ma Jing roared and turned his eyes elsewhere.
Sure enough, another explosion could be heard from the north of the post house.
Then there was a burst of neighing and horse roaring.
"Report!"
"General, more than twenty cavalrymen came out of the back door. They used thunder cannons to clear the way, but they were unable to block it for a while..."
Ma Jing sneered, knowing that Li Xia must have left from the north.
It doesn't matter, the official staff has already been arranged.
He commanded dozens of soldiers to surround Zhang Jue, and then sent part of his troops to the north to surround Li Xia...
So what about the two handsome men? Today, they will all die in his hands.
"Capture the thief's leader!"
Zhang Jue didn't give too many instructions. He raised his hand and pointed, and just shouted this sentence.
It is true that there are less than twenty people left under his command.
However, he has been in the army for nearly twenty years, what kind of battle has he not seen?
After rushing out of the gate of the post house and taking a glance at the distribution of enemy troops, Zhang Jue immediately knew who the commander was and where he was commanding.
Because he knew very well what the terrain was like around the post house.
It's not that he expected an enemy attack, but that every time he went to a place, he would naturally remember the terrain in his mind.
Even at a glance, Zhang Jue already knew the opponent's military strength and command.
The enemy in front of us is indeed very powerful and should be elite.
In Chengdu Prefecture, there has been only one foreign army recently, namely the Ningjiang Army of Chongqing Prefecture, brought by Ma Qianna's son Ma Jing.
The elite Ningjiang army cannot be defeated by twenty men. If you want to win, you can only kill Ma Jing first...
Zhang Jue made his judgment almost instantly.
And after having this judgment, it is to kill the enemy.
Zhang Jue was the fastest one to rush out. The Ningjiang soldiers on the opposite side were shocked by the thunderbolt cannon. Before the crossbow arrow could be fired, the big ax in Zhang Jue's hand had already slammed down.
When a weapon like an ax hits a person's head, white and red will immediately splash out.
"ah!"
"Kill it!"
Behind Zhang Jue were all his personal guards, each holding a big ax and a round shield, and they all looked fierce.
There were only twenty of them, but they actually formed their own formations, giving the impression of being on a battlefield.
However, there were more than a hundred people from the Ningjiang Army in front of the post house, and they also surrounded them.
"Puff puff……"
Ma Jing didn't pay much attention to the fighting on Zhang Jue's side.
He is very busy.
The sound of horse hooves was heard to the north of the post house. Li Xia must have escaped on horseback with his men, so some troops must be sent to surround him.
People should also be sent to search the post house to see if Li Xia is still hiding there.
The Qingbai River in the south and the Mianyuan River in the east must also be watched, otherwise Li Xia will jump into the water and escape...
Originally, it was almost certain that 300 people would surround and kill Zhang Jue, and 300 people were not even needed. The reason why they were brought was because Ma Jing was afraid that Zhang Jue would escape into the Longquan Mountains, or because the garrison of Jintang County happened to be nearby.
Just in case.
He does things very steadily.
Moreover, Ma Jing also recognized Zhang Jue. If Li Xia hadn't happened to be here today, Ma Jing could have directly ordered three hundred people to surround him like an iron barrel.
And Li Xia is here, this is a perfect opportunity. But no one under Ma Jing recognizes Li Xia, so he can only expand the encirclement, making sure that no one can escape.
If there is any trouble, it's just that Li Xia and his bodyguards seem to have good equestrian skills.
Ma Jing listened to the sound of the horse's hooves and vaguely felt that the other party was heading north very quickly.
Suddenly, he turned his head and listened.
"Li Xia wants to flee to the west! Surround him!"
"yes……"
More than ten people rushed into the post house to search and control the horses, more than 30 people guarding the direction of Qingbai River and Mianyuan River, more than 20 people guarding him, and more than 100 people fighting against Zhang Jue.
There were only about 140 people left to pursue Li Xia.
Ma Jing glanced at the front door of the post house again.
It didn't take long before several of Zhang Jue's personal guards had fallen, leaving only twelve or three people, who had switched to a back-to-back defense.
Zhang Jue is destined to die.
Ma Jing quickly mobilized half of his people to surround the west side.
He directed it well.
Although he was less than thirty years old at the time, he had been fighting against Mongolia in Sichuan and Sichuan with Ma Qian since he was a child, so his battlefield experience was not too bad.
Quickly, readjust the surrounding circle.
At this point, Ma Jingfang had time to pay attention to Zhang Jue, and stepped forward step by step with his crossbow in hand. He walked outside the encirclement, looked around, and found a stone to stand on.
"Zhang Jue, you intend to rebel, but you still want to resist to the end?! I might as well tell you that the imperial court has sent..."
Sudden,
Ma Jing turned his head and looked north, with a look of surprise in his eyes.
He could already see the escaping cavalry, first heading north, then west, making a large circle, then turning around and charging in this direction...
Riding the horse at the front was Li Zeyi.
Because he has the best riding skills.
The knights around him were far inferior to him, unable to shoot arrows while galloping.
As for the thunderbolts, they couldn't be fired on horseback, and they didn't carry many. One person only carried two.
To be continued...
