Just when Bian Xi was overwhelmed with anger, he was about to open the city gate and go out to fight!
Shi Siming, the commander-in-chief of the Xiliang Army who was responsible for guarding Taigu Pass, arrived in time, indirectly avoiding the outbreak of a war. However, when he learned that the Shu army was going to escort Zhao Hong to Wuguan Lingchi for execution, he remained silent for a long time.
, then looked at Bian Xi and Kankan's approaching Gao Sheng with complicated eyes.
"General Bian and General Gao, the Shu Army is undoubtedly setting a trap for you by releasing this news. You can't get in there yourself!"
Bian Xi listened to what Shi Siming said and sighed helplessly. Then he saw him and Gao Sheng look at each other and replied to Shi Siming slowly in a low voice: "Brother Zhao Hong and we have been going through life and death for several years. He
He has saved both of our lives many times on the battlefield, but now that he is in trouble, we just sit back and do nothing, and we deserve to be struck to death by five thunderbolts!
If General Tiangong were here, he would definitely support us in leading the army to rescue Brother Zhao Hong..."
Seeing that Bian Xi and Gao Sheng were so determined, Shi Siming looked at them with complicated expressions for a long time, and finally sighed: "My lord has not sent any more reinforcements. I can only allocate five thousand troops to you to rescue Zhao Hong."
General, um... the Shu army is cunning and cunning, I hope the two generals will pay attention to their safety at all times."
Seeing that Bian Xi and Gao Sheng had made up their minds, Shi Siming knew that no matter how hard they tried to stop them, it would be useless. Instead of being criticized for not saving their lives, it would be better to dispatch a small number of troops to go out and comply with Bian Xi and the others' wishes.
If Bian Xi and Gao Sheng can successfully rescue Zhao Hong, then everyone will be happy; if they fail to rescue Zhao Hong, or even die on the battlefield, then at least Shi Siming will not lose his prestige.
"Thank you, General Shi!"
Bian Xi and Gao Sheng bowed deeply to Shi Siming in front of them to express their gratitude. Then, they saw them straightening their backs, showing the courage of a strong man who will never return after he is gone, and rushed to the military camp to order troops.
He opened the city gate of Taigu Pass and led five thousand Xiliang soldiers towards Niuzui Mountain, the only way to Wuguan.
Shi Siming stood on the city wall, his rough palms caressing the uneven rock texture on the surface of the crenellations. He looked at Bian Xi and the others hurriedly leaving in the distance. Finally, he couldn't bear it and summoned the Guanzhong heroes Wang Li and Wang Gangchang!
"General Zhao Hong is being escorted to Wuguan by the Shu army. According to the information returned from Hangu Pass, Wuguan, Lantian, Qingni Pass and other places in the past few days, there is a high probability that the Shu army will attack Niuzui Mountain, Laoyangpo, and Niuxin Mountain.
, set up an ambush in Waizui Mountain, and then attacked our troops who went to rescue.
Therefore, I want to go in the opposite direction. Bian Xi and General Gao Sheng went to lure the enemy out, and you two brought 10,000 elite infantry and 5,000 cavalry to support. After the Shu army moves out, you two armies will counter-attack.
, severely damaged the Shu army!"
Wang Li and Wang Gangchang immediately accepted the order and went to the military camp with Shi Siming's military talisman to order troops. It must be said that Shi Siming's strategic vision was far-sighted, and he actually guessed Chen Ping's and others' plans. What would happen to Shu next?
Whether the army suffered a disastrous defeat or the Xiliang army suffered a disastrous defeat, no one knows!
"Squeak..."
The iron city gate of Taigu Pass was opened again, and 15,000 Xiliang soldiers filed out under the leadership of Wang Li and Wang Gangchang. The roar of horses and the clash of gold and gold were heard one after another, but they saw billowing smoke and dust rising outside the pass.
Wang Li and the others were getting further and further away, and finally disappeared into the smoke.
Perspective change!
At Niuzui Mountain, there are ravines, gurgling streams, and thick bushes. Among them, an army of more than a hundred people escorted the prison car and walked leisurely forward. The army set up a big flag, and the word "Shu" was not visible, but it could not be seen.
Who will be the general?
"The military advisor and the lord ordered us to guard Zhao Hong. You guys, don't be lazy and be ready at any time!"
However, the captain of the escort team opened his eyes angrily, and in front of all the soldiers under his command, he wiped the neck of the prison car. He was signaling that when the Xiliang army arrived later, he would not panic and waste time.
First kill Zhao Hong in the prison car, and then escape towards Laoyangpo.
Poor Zhao Hong, who was in the prison car, had his arms tied up with iron ropes as thick as his thumb, a black cloth bag was put over his head, and his mouth was blocked with linen cloth, which completely explained what it meant, "You are a knife, I am a fish."
Time flew by, and in the blink of an eye, the sun was blazing in the sky. The leader of the escort team was soaked with sweat. He stood upright, stood on tiptoes and looked into the distance. Seeing that there was no trace of the enemy nearby, he ordered the entire team to rest where they were.
"Anyway, we are already in the ambush circle. Even if the Xiliang army really comes, we don't need to be afraid! As long as Fan Kuai and General Zhu Hai give orders, the Xiliang thieves will be wiped out in an instant.
.”
Just as the leader of the Shu army was laughing, the birds in the deep forest nearby began to scream, and more than a hundred frightened birds flew out of the forest and hovered over the forest!
"Everyone is here, ready to retreat."
There was a trace of ruthlessness in the leader's eyes. He gritted his teeth and approached the wooden-barred prison car step by step with his iron sword in hand. He secretly apologized, and then a cold light appeared. Zhao Hong in the prison car let out a cry, and instantly
Then he lost his life.
Just twenty breaths after Zhao Hong's death, the leader of the Shu army had led his soldiers to retreat without a trace. When Bian Xi and the others arrived with their army, they found that the ground was in a mess.
Among the prison cars that were left behind was a body with its arms bound and its head covered by a black cloth.
"This this…"
Looking at the corpse in the prison car, Bian Xi's eyes turned red instantly. His grief and anger made him speechless for a moment. Blood and tears instantly flowed from his red eyes. He stepped forward in disbelief.
Go, slash through the prison car with a knife, and take off the hood of the corpse.
Seeing the corpse of Zhao Hong in the prison car, Xiliang warriors Gao Sheng and Bian Xi were distraught and cried out!
"Everyone is here, shoot your arrows and kill me!"
Just when Bian Xi and others were still immersed in grief, on the peaks on both sides of Niuzui Mountain, the Shu army led by Fan Kuai and Julingshen attacked forcefully. Countless arrows, rolling stones, and wood fell, violently impacting the Xiliang soldiers.
On the body.
In just the blink of an eye, more than a thousand people died, and the number of casualties was still increasing. Bian Xi and Gao Sheng endured their grief and quickly picked up weapons and commanded the remaining troops to defend. They must take Zhao Hong's body and withdraw from the Shu army.
In ambush.
"Now that you're here, don't even think about leaving!"
