Seven hundred and ninetieth chapters Guangling fights again VII
Jiang Qin smiled gratefully at Gan Ning, took a deep breath, and suddenly took the sword off Ling Tong's neck, shook his head and said to Ling Tong: "You, let's go! Back then, your father and I
Everyone is his own master, but your father and I are on a collision course after all! Today, for your father’s sake, I will spare your life! Just go back and wait until the next day to fight again, and I won’t
I'll show you mercy again!" After saying that, Jiang Qin flicked the single sword in his hand, put it back into the sheath, turned around and walked towards the back of the military formation, but he stumbled as he walked, it seemed that he was exhausted.
.
"Ah——!" Just when Jiang Qin was about to recruit a sergeant to help him, a roar suddenly came from behind Jiang Qin, and a burst of exclamations also sounded around Jiang Qin.
Jiang Qin subconsciously wanted to look back, but before he could turn his head, he felt a pain in his lower back, as if something suddenly hit him! Then, a voice came from his ear.
Come: "I would rather die than not receive this favor from you!"
The surrounding Western Qin soldiers did not know how Jiang Qin felt. In their eyes, Ling Tong, who had been spared by Jiang Qin, suddenly picked up the spear beside him and jumped up, rushing directly towards Jiang Qin.
The spear was also aimed directly at Jiang Qin's lower back! Jiang Qin had already said that he would let Ling Tong go back, so they didn't pay much attention to Ling Tong. Now they had no time to stop him, and could only watch Ling Tong helplessly.
Success!
Now the soldiers were all angry! Jiang Qin kindly let Ling Tong go, but Ling Tong actually took revenge on Jiang Qin. The soldiers shouted angrily, picked up their weapons, and slashed at Ling Tong's body.
There were even a few who directly threw their weapons at Ling Tong! In the blink of an eye, dozens of single knives and spears fell on Ling Tong, immediately infecting Ling Tong.
He became a bloody man! Just looking at Ling Tong's appearance, he knew that he had no chance of living anymore.
"Stop! You guys stop!" At this moment, Jiang Qin, who had been "stabbed" by Ling Tong before, shouted and turned around. Unfortunately, his words were too late. Looking at Ling Tong who was covered in blood and flesh, Jiang Qin
The whole person was stunned. He reached out and touched his lower back, but there was no trace of blood. Looking at the spear in Ling Tong's hand, he realized that the spear in Ling Tong's hand was actually held upside down, and he had just stabbed Jiang Qin.
What's on the lower back is actually the butt of a spear!
Ling Tong had dozens of weapons hanging on his body. He staggered and could no longer stand. He immediately fell to the ground. However, Ling Tong's eyes were always staring at Jiang Qin. Although blood kept coming out of his mouth,
He still said intermittently: "I, I, don't owe you anything at all!" After saying these words, Ling Tong closed his eyes and lost his breath.
Half-kneeling beside Ling Tong, Jiang Qin was speechless as he looked at Ling Tong's eyes that refused to close until death. He did not reach out to close Ling Tong's eyes, but sighed and stood up.
He said to the soldiers on his left and right: "Send his body to the city wall!" After saying that, Jiang Qin turned and left.
As for Ling Tong's death, all the generals on the top of the city saw it clearly. Ding Feng and others shouted Ling Tong's name loudly, and all of them stared with red eyes. If it weren't for Zhou Yu beside him,
Suppressed, they were afraid that they would leave the city to avenge Ling Tong immediately.
Zhou Yu's expression was not much better. After all, Ling Tong was also his comrade. Seeing Ling Tong dead, Zhou Yu felt very uncomfortable. However, Zhou Yu understood his responsibilities and did not allow himself to be emotional. He took a few deep breaths.
He calmed down the anger in his heart and shouted to the generals in a deep voice: "Okay! Everyone cheer up! Gongji's death cannot be in vain! We will definitely avenge Gongji! And now, our primary purpose is,
It is to defend Guangling City! Kuai Yue has already left the city to ask for help from Liu Bei! As long as Liu Bei's army arrives, we can launch a counterattack! By then, we will naturally have the opportunity to avenge our achievements!"
Zhou Yu's words revived the spirit of the generals. They all shouted loudly, and even the soldiers on the entire city were full of morale! Looking at the conditions of the soldiers around him, Zhou Yu's face also changed.
He was full of excitement and seemed to be infected by the morale of the soldiers, but in Zhou Yu's heart, he was secretly worried. After fighting with the Western Qin for so many years, Zhou Yu knew the Western Qin relatively well. This time, the Western Qin was so
A large-scale invasion is obviously certain of victory. Zhou Yu himself is not sure whether Kuai Yue can successfully invite Liu Bei's reinforcements. Of course, Zhou Yu will not say this, as it will only be in vain.
It only damaged the morale of the army. Now Zhou Yu can only pray secretly that Kuai Yue can successfully reach Pengcheng and persuade Liu Bei to send troops to help!
This day's battle ended. The Western Qin Army did not launch another attack on Guangling until after dark. The city of Guangling also took this opportunity to count the casualties. In a small village three hundred miles north of Guangling,
A horse quickly ran to the entrance of the village, pulled the reins, and made the horse stop. The man on the horse was wearing a cloth robe and looked like an ordinary citizen, but the neat goatee on his face and the look between his eyebrows revealed
His arrogance shows that this person's identity is anything but ordinary.
This person was none other than Kuai Yue, Sun Wu's counselor who had just come out of Guangling City and planned to go to Pengcheng for help! With Kuai Yue's resourcefulness, of course he had thought of what Zhou Yu was worried about, so he dressed up before leaving the city.
After thinking about it for a while, I deliberately chose to travel alone for this purpose, in order to reduce the possibility of being exposed and avoid various possible dangers!
Arriving outside this small village, Kuai Yue raised his head and looked at the sky. It was already dark now. If he continued on his journey, he would be prone to danger. Haste makes waste, and Kuai Yue knew very well, so he planned to stay tonight.
He found a family to stay overnight in this village. However, Kuai Yue did not easily sneak into the village. Instead, he carefully observed the village entrance for a while and determined that this was just a very ordinary small village and there was no ambush.
, then Kuai Yue entered the village with confidence.
Randomly finding a simple-looking house, Kuai Yue dismounted and carefully looked at the house, then carefully knocked on the dilapidated door. Soon, there was a sound from inside.
The voice sounded like that of an old woman in her fifties or sixties: "Who is it?"
Kuai Yue quickly cleared his throat, and then forced out a rough voice to reply: "Old man, I am a passing businessman, and I want to come and stay for a night! Please make it convenient for me!"
After a while after Kuai Yue answered, there was a sound of footsteps from inside, and then a creak was heard. The door opened a crack, and a vigilant face appeared behind the door. It was indeed a person.
An old woman. The old woman looked at Kuai Yue up and down and made sure that Kuai Yue was not a thief. Then she slowly opened the door a little and said to Kuai Yue: "This senior official, there are many people in the village who are better than ours."
Well, you can stay with them, the old woman’s house is too shabby, I’m afraid she can’t entertain high-ranking officials!”
"Hey! Old lady!" Seeing the old lady rejecting him, Kuai Yue felt more relieved. He quickly took a step forward and said: "Well, I don't have high requirements. I just want to be able to stay for one night. Please help me, old lady!"
! By the way! I can pay some rent!" Kuai Yue was not the kind of ignorant scholar. He immediately guessed that the old woman was not willing to waste the food at home to entertain him, so he quickly took out a cup from his arms.
He handed the money over directly.
Sure enough, when Kuai Yue handed over the dagger of money, the old woman's old eyes immediately lit up. She quickly stretched out her hand to take the dagger of money, looked at it carefully under the moonlight, and made sure it was real money, then she smiled.
He stood up, opened the door a little, and said to Kuai Yue with a smile: "Master, please come in quickly! Please come in!"
Kuai Yue led the horse into the house and scanned the yard. Only then did he realize that what the old woman said just now about the house being too dilapidated was really not a modest statement. There were only three houses in the yard, and one
It is the kitchen, one is the woodshed, and the remaining one is the wing room. It seems that this family's life is really very poor.
After seeing Kuai Yue come in, the old woman kept looking at her house. She was still worried whether Kuai Yue would regret it and take back the money. She quickly said: "Don't worry, high officials! The old woman only has the money at home.
A daughter-in-law and two grandsons, the old lady will call them all out later and let the high official live in the wing! Make sure the high official sleeps comfortably tonight!"
In fact, Kuai Yue really didn't dislike this family. When the Kuai family was in trouble, he escaped from Jingzhou alone. He suffered a lot along the way. How could he be poor and picky now that the situation is critical?
?But since the old woman had this intention, Kuai Yue would not refuse and nodded, thus agreeing to the old woman.
Seeing Kuai Yue agreeing, the old woman immediately burst into laughter and shouted into the side room: "Mother of the child! Mother of the child! Come out quickly with Niu Zi and Gou Zi! Let's entertain the distinguished guests!"
As she said that, the old woman walked towards the side room, her legs and feet were really nimble. No wonder, as the saying goes, money can make the world go round. The money that Kuai Yue just gave to the old lady was just nothing to Kuai Yue.
It's just a drop in the bucket, but for the old lady and her family, it's equivalent to what their family needs for a year! So, how could the old lady not entertain Kuai Yue? The old lady is not stupid, she naturally sees that Kuai Yue is not an ordinary person, and if she entertains her well
Well, maybe Kuai Yue will reward me with something more. Wouldn't that be an unexpected windfall?
