Seeing Lu Fang, Guo Sheng was about to die under the halberd painted by Shi Wengong's Fang Tian, when suddenly two cold lights flashed from the side, one hitting Shi Wengong's face and the other hitting his horse.
Shi Wengong caught a glimpse of two flying knives, and he didn't care about killing the two of them. Fang Tian's painted halberd in his hand suddenly slashed down, knocking the flying knives below to the ground. At the same time, he turned his head to dodge the flying knives aimed at the door in front of him.
Lu Fang and Guo Sheng did not bother to separate the painted halberds. They shouted together and stabbed Shi Wengong's neck with the two halberds.
"Let go."
Shi Wengong saw that the two of them dared to play tricks on each other, and he shouted loudly, and suddenly picked Fang Tian's painted halberd in his hand at the place where the two Fang Tian's painted halberds were entangled.
Lu Fang and Guo Sheng felt a strong force coming from the tiger's mouth, and there was severe pain in the tiger's mouth. Fang Tian's painted halberd in their hands could no longer be grasped and flew away.
Shi Wengong was about to kill the two men when he saw a man wearing a crimson shirt rushing over from the side, so he had no choice but to abandon the two men and ride to meet them.
However, Li Ying, the Flying Eagle, was nearby. Seeing Lu Fang and Guo Sheng in danger, he threw two throwing knives to rescue him and then rushed over on horseback.
Shi Wengong and Li Ying fought for a while, but it seemed that Li Ying could not win for a while, and several Liangshan leaders surrounded him. They did not dare to fight anymore, so they forced Li Ying away and left.
The leaders then led their troops to cover up and kill them.
Although Li Kui was reminded several times by Mu Hong, he had always been a little hairy after seeing the strange wind blowing away the military flag. But this fight aroused his murderous nature, so he didn't care about Chao Yong's reminder.
Li Kui chopped down a Ding Zhuang from Zengtou City who was fighting and fleeing with an axe. When he saw Ding Zhuang from Zengtou City in front of him, he was already running into the village.
Li Kui didn't care about the path. He just took a shortcut and chased, and he was about to catch up with a young man in front of him. However, he felt a crisp sound under his feet, and his whole body suddenly fell down.
Fortunately, Jiao Ting chased Li Kui closely and saw him falling, so he quickly grabbed Li Kui.
Jiao Ting was born in sumo wrestling, and his strength was amazing. Although Li Kui was strong, he pulled him back.
Li Kui stood firm. He saw that the place where he had just stepped suddenly collapsed into a pit.
It turned out that the top was just a layer of thin wooden boards covered with a layer of floating soil. Li Kui stepped on it and broke the wooden boards, causing them to fall into the pit.
Li Kui was startled when he saw the densely packed sharp blades stuck in the pit at his feet. He focused on it with lingering fear and said: "Fortunately, you held me back, otherwise I would have been stabbed with dozens of holes if I fell. Fortunately, I am iron."
Niu Fu is lucky, go ahead, kill them, chop down some Zeng Tou market birds, go back, get the silver reward, and treat you to a drink."
Jiao Ting shook his head and said, "You should treat Brother Yong to a bar when you go back. If he hadn't asked me to watch you, I wouldn't have followed you all the time."
While the two were talking, a burst of screams could be heard from all around.
Many Liangshan soldiers were too brave and did not pay attention to the escape route of Ding Zhuang in Zengtou City, so they fell into the pit.
However, Lin Chong always remembered Chao Yong's instructions. Seeing that pits appeared from time to time on the road leading to Zengtou City, hundreds of people had fallen into them, so he quickly reined in his troops.
After a slight delay, the Zengtou City soldiers and horses had already returned to Zengtou City.
Wu Yong saw that the archers on the Zengtou City Walled Gate had already drawn their bows and arrows and were on tight alert, so he had no choice but to withdraw his troops.
After half a day of fighting, when Wu Yong sent people to challenge again, Zengtou City soldiers and horses just stayed behind closed doors. Seeing that the sun was already high, they had no choice but to withdraw their troops and return to the stronghold.
Shi Wengong watched the Liangshan soldiers and horses retreat from the wall of the village. Just as he and his assistant teacher Su Ding checked the casualties of his own soldiers and horses, he heard that Elder Zeng sent someone to invite them.
When the two arrived at Zeng's house, the house was already filled with mourners.
The second among the five tigers of the Zeng family, Zeng, died on the spot. The fifth, Zeng Sheng, was injured before the melee and returned to Zengtou City. Although the eldest, Zeng Tu, also came back with a kill, he was also seriously injured after being hit by Luan Tingyu's hammer.
Only the third child, Zeng Suo, came back uninjured, but the whereabouts of the fourth child, Zeng Kui, are unknown.
The female relatives in the mansion were sad and frightened when they saw so many male casualties in the family. For a while, the whole mansion was filled with crying.
When they entered the lobby, they saw Elder Zeng, Zeng Sheng, and Zeng Suo sitting in the hall.
Elder Zeng seemed to have aged ten years in an instant. He sat in the main seat with a face full of vicissitudes of life. When he saw Shi Wengong and Su Ding arriving, he hurriedly asked: "Teacher, can I ask about the whereabouts of the fourth child?"
Seeing the grief on Elder Zeng's face, Shi Wengong found it difficult to speak.
Seeing this, Elder Zeng closed his eyes in pain and said, "Teacher, tell me."
Hearing this, Shi Wengong had no choice but to say: "I asked some young men, how many of them saw the Fourth Young Master being knocked over by a vicious monk with his Zen staff when he came back, and then hacked to death by Liangshan soldiers.
"
Although Elder Zeng was mentally prepared, when he heard that his son had really died in the battle, he still couldn't hold on. He fell softly on the chair and murmured: "The second son has died in the battle. I don't want the fourth son to be gone. I didn't think about it before."
We should have robbed the Liangshan war horses, otherwise how could we have caused such a misfortune."
Lao Wu Zeng came back early and had his wounds tied up. He was waiting for news about his brothers in the hall. When he heard that his second brother and fourth brother had died in the battle, he couldn't help but said bitterly: "Kill my two brothers, how can I not avenge this?"
, tomorrow we will fight to the death with the Liangshan bandits."
Hearing this, Elder Zeng hurriedly said: "When you brothers were all here, you were no match for the Liangshan bandits. Now that you and your eldest brother are injured, how can you resist the Liangshan bandits? In my opinion, it is better to return the captured war horses to Liangshan."
, pay some more money and food, and ask for peace from Liangshan."
Hearing this, Shi Wengong hurriedly said: "If you send money and food to the Liangshan bandits, I'm afraid it will be reported to the government and you will be accused of collaborating with the bandits."
After all, Elder Zeng is also a traveler, and there are not many people who can make him surrender. Hearing this, he couldn't help but glared, and said: "Even if he is really a bandit, what can the government do? We are desperate, let's surrender
The Liao Kingdom is like that."
The third son Zeng said hurriedly: "We have killed countless Liao people over the years. I am afraid that there are many people in the Liao Kingdom who are eager to crush our bones into ashes. If we surrender to them, wouldn't we be throwing ourselves into a trap?"
Hearing this, Elder Zeng said painfully: "I only have five children, and two of them have been lost today. If the war continues and there are more casualties, how can my old body endure it?"
Shi Wengong had a fierce battle with Hu Yanzhuo, Lin Chong and others today. He also felt that there were many leaders with high martial arts skills in Liangshan, and the five tigers of the Zeng family had lost two more people. It was inevitable that they would be alone. He hurriedly said: "What Taigong said is that if there are many casualties,
I am afraid that the strong men in the town are not willing to fight to the death any more. According to Shi's foolish idea, if we had to close the gate of the village tightly and not be able to get out, we would secretly send people to Cangzhou to ask for reinforcements. When the reinforcements came, we would be able to defeat them in one fell swoop if they cooperated with each other.
Thief."
Zeng Suo nodded and said: "What the teacher said is that our Zengtou City is easy to defend but difficult to attack. If we can't hold on, the Liangshan thieves will never even think of breaking in."
After all, Elder Zeng had been working in the frontier for many years. After hearing this, he also asked Shi Wengong to lead Ding Zhuang to guard the town to prevent Liangshan troops from attacking.
