The arrow leaves the string and flies away through the wind.
After all, Xu Sheng is also a veteran general. In the fierce battle, he still maintains the instinct of a general to listen to all directions and see all directions.
Hearing a sharp sound from behind, Xu Sheng glanced sideways, and was shocked to see a sharp arrow coming like lightning, shooting straight towards his face.
The arrow was so powerful and so fast that it was extraordinary.
Xu Sheng had no time to think and could only rely on his body's instinct to dodge diagonally.
Whoosh~~
But a ray of cold light came and whizzed past Xu Sheng's ear. Although the arrow missed, the extremely powerful blade wind actually swept away a bunch of hair on his temples.
"It's so dangerous..."
Xu Sheng was secretly glad that he had dodged the fast arrow, but he suddenly felt the sound of breaking wind coming from behind him.
When he turned around hastily, Xu Sheng's eyes widened and he was shocked to see Ling Tong's sword slashing straight at his head.
The sword strikes as fast as lightning.
At this time, although Xu Sheng had dodged Yan Liang's arrow, he sold his flaw to Ling Tong, who was fighting in close combat. Now that his body skills were old, he could no longer avoid it.
Yan Liang, who was in the city, had a sneer on his lips.
Ling Tong and Xu Sheng were equally skilled in martial arts, which Yan Liang knew very well.
Yan Liang also knew that the reason why Ling Tong fought so hard and attacked like crazy was to avenge his family.
And with Yan Liang's archery skills, it would not be difficult to kill Xu Sheng with an arrow at such a close range.
Yan Liang did not, he wanted to leave the chance of revenge to his beloved general.
He knew very well that letting Ling Tong kill a Wu general to vent the fire of revenge in his heart would win Ling Tong's loyalty far more than giving him a heavy reward.
Therefore, Yan Liang's arrow deliberately missed a few points, and he was calculated to force Xu Sheng into Ling Tong's sword.
Yan Liang did it.
There was no way to avoid Xu Sheng, so he could only barely move an inch to the side with all his strength at the critical moment. At the same time, Ling Tong's shining blade had already slashed down.
puff!
The extremely sharp sword, filled with Ling Tong's anger, cut through the thick armor, and actually cut into Xu Sheng's shoulder bone.
"ah--"
Xu Sheng screamed in pain, kicked back, and took a few steps back. On his shoulder, a large amount of blood spurted out from the wound like spring water.
Ling Tongyi slashed Xu Sheng with his knife. He felt so happy in his heart and his murderous intention became even stronger. With a fierce light in his eyes, he held the bloody knife and pushed towards the injured Xu Sheng step by step.
Xu Sheng was covered in blood, his shoulders were so painful that he couldn't even stand firm, and he could no longer fight.
Seeing Ling Tong approaching step by step, Xu Sheng felt fear in his heart and cursed in a trembling voice: "Ling Tong, you and I are our old colleagues after all. How can you not miss the old friendship and insist on forcing me to death?"
"Hmph, when you excluded my father and son, you never thought about the friendship of colleagues. Now you want me to be merciful, what a joke!"
Ling Yi's face was ruthless and fierce as fire.
Xu Sheng looked ashamed, as if he was secretly ashamed of what he had done.
However, Xu Sheng's shame disappeared in a flash, and a disdainful smile suddenly appeared on his ferocious face.
"Traitor, it's not that simple to kill me, Xu Sheng. I will die with you -"
Amidst the loud shouts, Xu Sheng ignored his shoulder injury and instead swung his sword to kill Ling Tong.
He knew that he had no way out, that he could not plead for mercy, and that it was a dead end, so he decided to fight for his life.
Seeing Xu Sheng rushing towards him, Ling Tong didn't even frown. He raised his sword with both hands and slashed at the enemy with all his strength.
The cold light flickered, and the two swords collided instantly.
Huh~~
Sparks flew everywhere, and Xu Sheng was knocked out with his knife and fell heavily to the ground.
Xu Sheng, whose shoulder was injured and whose strength was reduced by half, could hardly use his full strength, so how could he withstand Ling Tong's full blow.
Xu Sheng fell to the ground, unable to hold the sword, and fell from his hand. He rolled several times and stopped. Several sternum bones were broken, making it difficult to get up.
Ling Tong stepped forward, looked down at the enemy at his feet, and slowly raised the sword in his hand.
"Gongji, please listen to my explanation. I have always respected your father-in-law. How dare I have any intention of excluding you? These are all misunderstandings..."
As death approached, Xu Sheng, who was known for his loyalty, forgot about his reputation and begged Ling Tong for mercy.
Ling Tong had a sarcastic look on his face, and he raised the sword without hesitation, hung there for a moment, and then swung it down vigorously.
A bloody human head rolled a few steps and rolled down the ramp of the lower city. It was soon kicked by the Wu soldiers who were fleeing in embarrassment and disappeared.
At this time, the city gate had been opened and the suspension bridge had been cut down. Yan Liang led hundreds of cavalry on horseback and entered the stone city from the city gate in a dignified manner.
Yan Liangzong immediately reached the top of the city, saw the headless corpse in front of Ling Tong, and knew that Xu Sheng had died under his sword.
Yan Liang laughed and said happily: "My martial arts skills are indeed extraordinary. Congratulations on killing the enemy and making a great contribution to this general."
"The Lord's words are serious. If it weren't for the help of the Lord's magic arrow, how could the general have easily taken off Xu Sheng's head? It is the Lord's turn to thank the general."
Although Ling Tong killed Xu Sheng, he was also very aware of his own strength and knew that without Yan Liang's secret help, he would not be able to show his power today.
Yan Liang laughed loudly and raised his whip and pointed north: "Gongji, you are not satisfied with just killing one Xu Sheng. Have you already killed him happily?"
Under Yan Liang's encouragement, Ling Tong's calm mood suddenly became fierce again.
The arrogant Ling Tong wiped the blood on Xu Sheng's body with his sword, pulled himself together, raised his sword and killed again into the city.
Yan Liang stationed his horse at the top of the city, looking at the war-torn Stone City in the distance.
But when they saw the remnants of the Wu army, they were like ants that had broken out of their nest, abandoning their helmets and armor and looking towards the main city in the north to flee.
Behind Wu Zu, thousands of officers and soldiers of the Yan family, like tigers and wolves that have crashed into a sheepfold, fiercely pursued the defeated enemy.
The sound of horse hoofbeats sounded, and Zhou Cang rode up to the top of the city and planted the huge flag with the word "Yan" in his hand on the top of the city.
The war flag was flying, and Yan Liang stood proudly under the flag. In his sharp face, the madness that defied the world was burning.
Lu Su was running away in pain.
He and his two thousand defeated troops ran wildly and fled back to the main city.
At this time, Chen Wu had arrived with 1,500 elite soldiers. These soldiers were all Sun Quan's personal guards. At this time, Sun Quan, who heard that Stone City was in danger, had to invest his most direct troops in it. battlefield.
However, Sun Quan's reinforcements were still a step late, and Stone City had fallen into Yan Liang's hands.
After receiving reinforcements, Lu Su immediately calmed down and deployed more than 3,000 Wu soldiers to guard the main wall south of Moling.
Although the main city of Moling is not as strong as Stone City, it still has complete fortifications. The Yan army has been attacking for a long time. At this time, it is at the end of its crossbow and it is difficult to capture the main city in one go.
Yan Liang surrendered when he saw the situation was good, and immediately ordered all armies to stop attacking, and only marched into Stone City, and then attacked the main city the next day.
At nightfall, seeing no sign of Yan's army attacking, Lu Su breathed a sigh of relief, then went down to the top of the city and went to the military mansion in the inner city to see Sun Quan.
When Lu Su entered the military palace, he was already filled with shame and nervousness. He failed to defend Stone City, and he really didn't know what Sun Quan would do with him in his rage.
The scene where Zhang Zhao was beheaded was still lingering in his mind.
When I was panicking, I arrived at the main hall.
Lu Su took a deep breath, tried his best to calm down his nervous mood, and cautiously walked into the lobby.
When he looked up for a moment, Lu Su's tense heartstrings relaxed a little, and his mood calmed down a little.
In addition to Sun Quan, who was ashen-faced, sitting at the top was Wu Guotai, who looked majestic and calm.
Since the last time Sun Quan killed Zhang Zhao because of drinking, the Wu family was very angry when he heard about it, so he scolded Sun Quan. After that, he always guarded Sun Quan and did not allow him to touch wine again, let alone do anything out of anger.
An extraordinary decision.
With Wu Guotai around, Lu Su was not afraid that Sun Quan would issue a killing order.
"Su is incompetent. He failed to withstand Yan Liang's dog thief's violent attack by tens of thousands of elite soldiers, and fell into Stone City. Su has betrayed the trust of the lord. Please punish the lord."
Lu Su stepped forward, prostrated himself on the ground and took the initiative to plead guilty.
Sun Quan looked at Lu Su's look and felt a mixture of love and hate in his heart.
What I love is that Lu Su has been loyal to him from beginning to end, even if he risks being punished by himself, he still never abandons him.
What he hates is that Lu Su has disappointed him again and again, ruining his family's fortune bit by bit, and now even Stone City has been lost.
"Lu Zijing, what did you promise back then? Didn't you promise me steadfastly that you would defend Stone City to the death? What about now, where is my Stone City?" Sun Quan asked angrily.
"Lord, Su is really..." Lu Su looked ashamed, his head bowed deeply, not knowing how to respond.
At this time, Wu Guotai glared at Sun Quan and said calmly: "Victory and defeat are common matters for military strategists. Zijing must have tried his best in this battle. It must be that the enemy army was too strong, so he lost Stone City. How could you, Zhong Mou?"
It’s so strange to blame Zijing.”
Sun Quan was helpless after being taught a lesson by his mother, but he did not dare to refute.
Wu called Lu Su up again, and was relieved. Instead of holding Lu Su responsible for the failure, he also praised Lu Su's loyalty.
Lu Su's panic mood eased a lot.
At this time, Wu asked again: "Zijing, now that Stone City has been lost and Moling City is in danger, what are your strategies for retreating from the enemy?"
Lu Su did not dare to speak and only glanced at Sun Quan furtively.
Sun Quan flattened his lips, waved his hands and said, "Mother is asking you something. If you have any suggestions, just tell me and listen."
Only then did Lu Su feel relieved, then he swallowed, cupped his hands and said, "Now that things have happened, Su believes that there is only one way to resolve the crisis in Moling."
Sun Quan and Wu both pricked up their ears.
…
The night is already deep.
In the military tent in Stone City, Yan Liang was still examining Moling's city defense map, thinking about the next step to finally break the city.
Although Stone City is now broken, judging from the subsequent performance of the Wu army in defending the main city, the Wu army in the city still has a certain degree of combat effectiveness. It is not easy to defeat Moling easily.
Just as Yan Liang was deep in thought, the curtain was raised, and Zhou Cang stepped into the tent. He cupped his hands and said, "To inform my lord, Sun Quan has sent an envoy Zhuge Jin to ask for an audience. He is currently outside the tent. I wonder if my lord has seen you?"
Zhuge Jin...
Hearing this familiar name, Yan Liang immediately became interested. (To be continued. Please search Piao Tian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!)
