Seeing the whole flame spreading in Jinan County, Xu Ning came over and said: "The grain and grass transport troops in Erlong Mountain were personally escorted by Brother Wu Song. However, they were intercepted by the imperial cavalry. For three consecutive days, Brother Wu Song couldn't help but If we can’t break through the siege, our food supplies won’t last for a few more days!”
Song Qing stared and said, "What do you mean by this?"
Xu Ning took a deep breath and said: "Now Zhao Yun is leading an army to besiege the city, and our food and grass are cut off. Now the Baibo bandits are burning the city, and the food and grass we hoarded have been burned. If there is no food and grass replenishment, we will starve to death in this abandoned city!"
Song Qing saw that the fire was out of control. It was meaningless to defend an abandoned city. Moreover, if he entered the city now, he would have to organize a large number of troops to put out the fire. If the imperial troops took advantage of the situation and attacked, the consequences would be disastrous!
Song Qing gritted his teeth and said: "Evacuate! Let's retreat to Erlong Mountain! This city will soon be turned into a ruin. There is no point in holding on to a ruin!"
"What about Coach Lin?" Xu Ning wanted Song Qing to recall Lin Chong and organize the troops to retreat with him.
Song Qing had suffered setbacks one after another at this time, and roared almost madly: "I must hang the head of Yang Feng, a thief, in front of the military tent, and drink wine with his heart and liver, in order to eliminate my hatred!"
Xu Ning could only sigh helplessly after hearing this. Under Xu Ning's command, the troops began to retreat.
Outside the county city, Zhao Yun keenly discovered the intention of the Liangshan bandits. He turned back to Fengyun Hu who led the infantry and said: "Feng Yunhu, you lead the troops to occupy the county city as soon as possible, and then put out all the fire in the city, and try to save the county as much as possible. City, rescue the people in the city! I lead the expeditionary cavalry regiment and the Karasuma Rangers to pursue the enemy! At this time, the bandit leader Lin Chong leads the cavalry to pursue the Baibo bandits. The bandit leader Xu Ning is a lone tree, and we can take the opportunity to expand our results! "
As the Liangshan bandits retreated in chaos, Zhao Yun and Qianzhao commanded the cavalry to charge into the formation wantonly.
At this time, Lin Chong led the elite cavalry to pursue the remnants of Yang Feng's troops. Without the cavalry to entangle them, the cavalry troops commanded by Zhao Yun were overwhelming and defeated the Liangshan troops.
Seeing this, Xu Ning secretly scolded Song Qing for being a stupid pig and giving random orders before the battle.
They could only lead the Golden Spear Soldiers to the rear to cover the retreat of Song Qing and a group of Liangshan bandits. Against the background of the blazing flames of Jinan County, a bloody battle began in the wilderness.
In Jinan County City, Fengyun Hu commanded the troops to start drawing water from the moat. The burning flames could no longer be extinguished. They could only wet the unburned buildings, and the soldiers went back and forth to draw water.
Xun Chen, on the other hand, commanded the warlock troops to cast thunderstorm spells to control the fire. The most eye-catching thing was Qin Yuanmu leading the ice dragon troops, hovering in the flames.
The ice dragons exhaled cold air one after another to extinguish the flames, while Qin Yuanmu flew with his wings, and countless ice cold air poured out from under his wings. It was the extremely cold wings that he had learned, and after flying by, the fire was One after another, they were extinguished.
…
Outside the North City, Lin Chong led the cavalry troops to continuously attack Yang Feng's remnant army. Yang Feng kept abandoning the old, weak, sick and disabled to resist Lin Chong's cavalry. The two sides chased each other in the wilderness.
When running to midnight, Lin Chong caught up with Yang Feng, covered in blood, and was about to kill Yang Feng with his gun. However, Xu Huang suddenly jumped up from the stretcher beside him, holding a battle ax and started fighting with Lin Chong.
The two men exchanged swords and axes for a while, and they were inseparable. Yang Feng fought and retreated under the cover of Xu Huang, and finally came to a deep mountain forest, where he led his troops to escape. Lin Chong looked at the endless expanse in front of him. forest, we can only rein in our horses and return.
At this time, a small school came on horseback and said: "Chief Lin! Chief Song has an order to abandon Jinan County. We will retreat to Erlong Mountain now!"
Lin Chong's expression changed drastically when he heard this and said: "We have been attacking the city for several days, and our brothers have long been exhausted. If we don't rest and recuperate, if we retreat at this time, our troops will be demoralized. If the enemy's cavalry covers them up, the consequences will be disastrous!"
But when Lin Chong saw the sky, he knew it was too late, so he could only ride towards Erlong Mountain.
…
The bloody battle continued until dawn. About half of the city in Jinan County was burned to rubble, and about half of the city was finally saved with the joint efforts of everyone. The dawn sun rose, and the entire city was still shrouded in thick smoke. middle.
Outside the county, Zhao Yun was carrying a human head on his gun. It was Xu Ning, the golden gunner. At this time, Zhao Yun was galloping on the battlefield, using Xu Ning's head to intimidate the Liangshan bandits, making them give up resistance and accept change!
In this battle, there were nearly four to five million captured Liangshan bandits!
Moreover, Zhao Yun killed the Liangshan warrior Golden Gunner Xu Ning in the bloody battle. The Liangshan bandit forces in Jinan County had already fled. After this battle, they no longer had the power to dominate Jinan County.
From now on, Jinan County will be dominated by the three pillars of Zhao Yun's troops, Baibo bandits and Erlongshan.
When the dark Liangshan bandits gathered in front of Jinan County, Xun Chen and Fengyun Hu were covered in thick smoke as if they had just been dug out of the coal mine. Zhao Yun's face did not have the joy of victory, but looked at the two with worry.
Xun Chen said with a kind of frustration in his eyes: "Thanks to Qin Yuanmu and his Ice Dragon troops this time, half of the buildings and houses in the county were saved. The people in the city suffered heavy losses, about more than 100,000 innocent people." The people were burned alive! This strategy was planned by me, and these people are me..."
Just as Xun Chen was about to speak, Zhao Yun jumped off the horse, held Xun Chen's shoulders and said, "These are the Baibo bandits who are crazy. They killed the people. Youruo, you led the people to save half of the people in the city. Your merits are immeasurable!" We must annihilate all the Baibo bandits and Liangshan bandits to comfort the innocent people who died!"
Zhao Yun's words were true and true. The training on the Youzhou battlefield made Zhao Yun, although young, accustomed to life and death.
There are no volunteers on the battlefield, and the war is like a raging wildfire that cannot be controlled at all.
Xun Chen was still so young and could not bear such a heavy blood debt, which would become a psychological burden on him, so he took the initiative to enlighten Xun Chen.
"What we have to do now is to lead these suffering people to live a stable and prosperous life! Youruo, you will temporarily take charge of government affairs and let Jinan County and City resume people's livelihood and production as soon as possible, while I will command the troops and deal with the enemy. The remaining forces to prevent the evil bandits from counterattack!" Zhao Yun has experienced countless life and death on the Youzhou battlefield, and his will has long been tempered as strong as a diamond.
He knew that Xun Chen was the most vulnerable in his heart at this time, and he could not let him put the guilt of burning more than 100,000 people to death on himself.
After Zhao Yun's enlightenment, Xun Chen's expression became much more energetic. Zhao Yun rarely joked: "You'd better wash your face! Don't let the people in the city see our champion's team in such a mess!"
At this moment, a group of old men came out, escorted by many young people, and walked out timidly and tentatively.
These people are all the elders of the major families in the county. A young man with a face as black as coal and a body covered in black dirt came over and clasped his fists and said, "Are you the champion's army?"
Zhao Yun's eyes lit up when he saw this young man. He looked tall and tall, but he was only twelve or thirteen years old. His body was extremely strong and he had already reached the level of elephant power. His body was full of Gang Qi, and he actually had first-class peak strength. He had a pair of beautiful faces. The dust cannot cover the eyes of the tiger.
"I am Zhao Yun, the captain of the Jinan School under the title of Champion Hou! Who are you?" Zhao Yun looked down at the young man and asked.
"Sure enough, they are the champion's troops! I told you that when we put out the fire last night, the troops who were so kind and righteous were not gangsters! The champion is here! We are saved!" Before the boy could answer, a middle-aged man shouted to the people behind him.
Suddenly the whole Jinan County was boiling, and the scared residents hiding in their houses rushed out like a tide, raising their arms and shouting. Some people even wiped away their previous fear and sadness, beat gongs, and played gongs. Firecrackers are simply more joyful than Chinese New Year.
The middle-aged man came over and clasped his fists at Zhao Yun and Xun Chen and said: "Xiaguanding is the Taoist order of the former Jinan County. We have long heard that the champion's troops are coming to attack. You are simply our reborn parents! "
After saying this, he knelt down to thank Zhao Yun and Xun Chen. Upon seeing this, other people knelt down and supported them on the ground. Many people even cried with joy.
Zhao Yun and Xun Chen quickly helped Guan Ding and others up and said: "It is our duty to wipe out the bandits. My fellow villagers have suffered!" Some people even brought coarse food and tea to comfort the soldiers.
Xun Chen looked at the unkempt people, and the guilt in his heart faded a lot, so he chatted with Guan Ding about the general situation of Jinan County.
Guan Ding knew everything and said without hesitation: "The previous Liangshan bandit leaders Lin Chong and Xu Ning were still a little bit humane. They robbed everywhere and left us something to eat. Although some bandits robbed and bullied women, they often restrained them." , we can still barely survive, these Baibo bandits are simply beasts, they burst into the city, burned, killed, looted and committed all kinds of evil..."
After chatting with Guan Ding for a while, Xun Chen got to know the situation in Jinan County and began to make plans. The first rescue and disaster relief arrangement was to investigate and clean up the remaining fires and treat the people.
Zhao Yun had been secretly sizing up the young man next to Guan Ding, and couldn't help but curiously said: "Master Guan, this young man is..."
Guan Ding patted the young man on the back of the head and said: "This is my second son, Guan Ping! I have never seen much of the world, so you are neglecting the two adults! Ning'er, Ping'er! Why don't you come over quickly to pay homage to Mr. Zhao and Mr. Xun!"
There are two young men behind Guan Ding. The one with a majestic body like a tiger and blazing eyes is Guan Ping. The other one is thin but with a strong bookish air. They are only twelve or thirteen years old and have already given birth. Different from ordinary people, I bow deeply to Zhao Yun and Xun Yu.
Fengyun Hu, who was standing behind Zhao Yun, heard that this young man turned out to be Guan Ping, the adopted son of the Martial Saint Guan Yu!
Think about when Guan Yu left Cao Cao and passed by Guanding Manor on his way to Jizhou to take in his adopted son. The geographical location was consistent.
Guan Ping is a being who can fight fiercely with Xiliang God General Pang De regardless of the outcome. Of course, he is still an unknown young man now.
"This son has a majestic body and extraordinary manners. He is a good young man who can lead troops on the battlefield! Guan Ping! Are you willing to fight with me on the battlefield and defeat the enemy?" Zhao Yun looked at the somewhat dull Guan Ping and said with a smile. At this time, Zhao Yun fired his gun. Still picking up Xu Ning's bloody head.
Guan Ning and other ordinary people were so frightened that they huddled up and did not dare to look directly at Zhao Yun. However, Guan Ping was not only not afraid, but instead kept looking at Zhao Yun with a divine light in his eyes.
"I am willing to join the army of the champion! Defend the family and the country, and defeat the enemies!" Guan Ping's eyes were no longer dull. Instead, he answered with fists in his arms. This time, he didn't wait for his father Guan Ding's reply, and rushed to speak out what was in his heart. .
