Since Shi Wengong followed Cao Cao, he had a position in his heart: next to his brother, I am among the top three.
In his heart, except for Lu Junyi and Wu Song, there is no one who can compare with him.
It was not because of his arrogance. When Cao Cao attacked Zengjiazhai at night, Lu Junyi had a fair fight with him, but because the horses were weak, Fang Lu lost one move. Since then, how many great contributions have you made by following Lao Cao?
However, in the past year, the masters around Cao Cao have popped up like big grapes from a good harvest.
First came the "big sword" Guan Sheng. With his sword skills, who in the world dares to underestimate him?
Then Lin Chong, the "Leopard Head", broke through the pass in succession. His snake spear was really as powerful as Huan Hou of the Shu Han Dynasty.
Later, when I went to Huazhou, I saw the bravery of the "Flower Monk" Lu Zhishen, and added the "Dragon Slayer" Sun An, both of whom were earth-shaking heroes.
Then he went to the capital and got acquainted with Han Shizhong, the "Fifth Korean Poker". He was another man who was accustomed to fighting and dared to fight.
It was also time for Lao Cao to fight in the north and south. Du Bo, the "Zhang Fei", and Bian Xiang, the "Bull Demon King", successively joined his army. They were also top warriors and even more terrifying. There was also "Mr. Golden Sword" Li Zhu. Although he is a mastermind, his swordsmanship is superb. He defeated Lu Junyi, Sun An, and Han Shizhong in a row. Although he is not a general, in terms of pure martial arts, who dares to say that he is better than this person?
Therefore, when Lao Cao returned in October, although Shi Wengong seemed calm, he secretly wanted to win. Especially this time when Cao Cao came to the north and specially ordered Lin Chong to accompany him, Shi Wengong became even more jealous.
But this thought was hard to describe, and he suppressed it without revealing any trace of it.
Why did you go out of your way to capture Yelu Dashi alive in the previous episode? It was Lin Chong who killed Kou Zhenyuan first. Shi Wengong was not willing to let his descendants go, so he fought hard to capture the enemy general to show that his own skills were superior.
In today's battle against the resentful army, Yelu Dashi and Wanyan Huonv fought one after another, but they failed to win for a while. Shi Wengong secretly wanted to show off his force. Zhou Tong happened to create a great opportunity and let him kill Liu Shunren with a halberd. He was about to strike while the iron was hot, but Guo Guo The pharmacist's weapon was weird and almost capsized the boat.
Pharmacist Guo even pretended to be a ghost, intending to intimidate Shi Wengong, but this made Shi Wengong more and more angry. At that moment, his face was full of tigers, his murderous intention was blazing, and a halberd flew like a phoenix and a dragon, vowing to kill the opponent under his horse.
However, Medicine Master Guo has great prestige among the resentful army. How could he not have real talent and learning? His marksmanship is as thunderous as the tide, and he is extremely brave.
Especially the Ghost Crying Gun. As the angle and speed of thrust are different, the abnormal sound it makes is constantly changing, either sharp or high-pitched. It is indescribably uncomfortable in the ears, and one can't help but feel frightened. Many consecutive moves are used. It suddenly exploded and was immediately interrupted.
The two of them fought with great force, and the other four generals were also affected. Wanyanhuonu was the first to scream: "What's the noise? It's so noisy, someone really wants to vomit." The serrated knife swept across and forced him away. Zhen Wuchen, Pegasus retreats first.
Yelv Dashi was afraid of being attacked by the generals of the resentful army, so he quickly made a feint and retreated hastily.
Zhen Wuchen and Luo Qinghan returned to the battle in triumph.
For a time, on the battlefield, only two fierce generals, Shi Wengong and Guo Yaoshi, risked their lives to fight.
Cao Cao rode up to Han and his son, frowned and asked, "General Han, does this gun named Guo seem a little weird?"
Han Chang curled his lips and said: "If it weren't for this Lao Shi Zi's 'Ghost Crying Spear', how could he dare to go against my father and my son? I tell you, this man's spear has the ability to shake the soul and capture the soul. Unless there is a big army fighting, The people shouted Ma Xiao to overwhelm him, otherwise such a fighting general would be more effective. Humph, I would like to advise you with a kind heart, please call your brother back. He is so good at martial arts, and he is so good at this ghost spear. It would be a pity to go down."
Wanyan Lou's room heard what the two said, and asked Han to say it again in Jurchen language. He frowned and asked kindly: "Brother Wu, do you want to call me back?"
Hearing this, Cao Cao hesitated a little, and then looked at the field. From his perspective, although Yaoshi Guo's skills were great, they were not as good as Shi Wengong's. However, the Ghost Crying Spear was so strange that it was difficult to say whether he would win or lose, life or death.
I couldn't help but think, I came here this time, firstly, to scrutinize the reality of Nvzhen, and secondly, to show off the saints in front of others and make Jurchen a general, leaving a ferocious thought in the Song Dynasty. For these two things, it is inevitable to take risks. But how could he risk his brother's life for this?
Gritting his teeth in his heart, he was about to speak and ask Mr. Lou to order the gold medal.
When he was about to say something, he suddenly heard Shi Wengong shouting: "Hey! Medicine Master Guo, you are so proud of yourself with a ghost gun. If I don't kill you today, I swear I won't give you back the horse!"
Cao Cao was shocked: Wen Gong has the same mind as me. Could it be that he guessed that I wanted to call him back? He gritted his teeth and did not speak after all. He just looked back and signaled Hua Rong. Hua Rong nodded, hung up his gun and took his bow, preparing to save people at the critical moment.
All readers are talented students. By this point in the book, you have already realized that the so-called "Ghost Crying Guns" emit some evil sounds that make the human body uncomfortable. This kind of evil sounds have high frequency and powerful effects. It affects the eardrum and affects the brain's amygdala, which regulates emotions. It can make people manic or panicked, and can lead to various discomforts, such as scratching glass, women screaming, and the sound of electric drills.
Shi Wengong was immersed in the situation. Although he didn't know the reason for the strange ghost cry, he also had his own countermeasures. He secretly said cruelly: The only person this person relies on is this gun. If this gun is broken, what else can he do?
Thinking of this, his halberd skills gradually became messy, his eyes gradually turned red, and his expression became ferocious, as if those strange noises had affected his mind.
Pharmacist Guo saw this in his eyes and was secretly proud of himself. Even though the opponent's attack became more and more urgent, he still took over it in an orderly manner, waiting for the moment when the opponent became irritated and collapsed.
After another seven or eight moves, Shi Wengong let out a strange cry and suddenly threw the halberd. Medicine Master Guo was ecstatic in his heart: You are about to die! He shot hard with a strange whistling sound, and saw that Shi Wengong was about to die. Suddenly the two men's eyes met, Shi Wengong's eyes showed a look of success. Medicine Master Guo's heart was shocked, and he was about to change his move, but he saw Shi Wengong leaning sideways. A strange light rolled up and made a soft chirp sound. Pharmacist Guo felt a light movement in his hand and saw the tip of his gun flying high.
Pharmacist Guo was shocked. Even the barrel of his gun was made of iron. Unexpectedly, the opponent had a sharp weapon that could cut iron like clay! The key is that the gun head and the key points of the gun are all in the structure of the gun head. If you can recapture it and recast the gun barrel, it will still be a good Ghost Crying Gun.
In a hurry, he stretched out the gun barrel and went to pick up the gun tip in the air, but when he heard the sound of wind, he felt pain in his shoulder socket, and a long arrow penetrated the armor and penetrated the flesh, and he immediately rolled off his horse.
Shi Wengong secretly thought it was a fluke, thinking that Zhou Tong refused to accept the Tai'a sword as a gift from his brother and give it to me. It is difficult for me to use my martial arts skills in other places. Who knows that today it is with this sword's majestic righteousness that I defeated this guy? Magic gun!
He stretched out his hand and caught the fallen spearhead, and was about to take the life of Pharmacist Guo, when he saw dozens of generals from the other side coming out, shouting: "The rats hurt people with their hidden arrows, but they will stay alive!"
Shi Wengong was startled. He didn't even pick up his halberd, so he turned his horse and left. The head of Wanyanlou's room in the formation roared: "The magic spear is broken, and the resentful army is defeated. All the men, order a thousand troops and horses, and follow me to kill them." Enemy!" He waved his sword in front, and behind him several Jurchen warriors came with a thousand troops on the ground.
Shi Wengong was riding Gao Qiu's BMW, which was extremely fast. He bypassed Jin Bing Fengrui and returned to the main formation. He cupped his fists and said, "Brother Hua Rong, thank you for your help!"
The arrow that knocked over Medicine Master Guo was naturally Hua Rong's handiwork. When he saw Shi Wengong throwing his halberd, he was startled and quickly fired an arrow. He was originally going to kill Guo Yaoshi's throat, but Guo Yaoshi was lucky enough to reach out the barrel of the gun and grab the spear head, which happened to force the vital point open.
Hua Rong cupped his fists and returned the salute: "What did my brother say? It's my younger brother who was reckless and fired cold arrows, which damaged my brother's reputation. But I really didn't expect that my brother would trick him."
Zhou Tong came up and said, "Master, brother, show me what that ghost gun looks like."
Lin Chong, Ruan Xiaoqi and others were also curious. Shi Wengong handed over the gun tip, and everyone passed it around and exclaimed in surprise.
What do you think? It turns out that the gun head is as long as a forearm and extremely sharp. It is hollowed out in the middle, leaving many holes and textures. Once the gun comes out, the wind passes through the hole, and its sound is like a ghost crying at night. , depending on the angle and speed of the gun, the level of the cry sound varies.
Cao Cao took it in his hand, looked at it, nodded and said: "I don't know which master craftsman made this spear head. In my opinion, it is also a skill given by heaven. I am afraid that the craftsman himself will not be able to create such a mouthful again." A gun too!"
He handed it to Shi Wengong and said: "The Tai'a sword cuts iron like clay. You would rather risk cutting the barrel of his gun than directly cutting off the head of the gun. Do you want to use another instrument?"
Shi Wengong said with a smile: "Brother knows my little brother's heart! My nickname is "Magic Spear", but I fight with a painted halberd. It's quite strange. I got this gun today, and it just fits my name!"
Cao Cao laughed and said: "There are good craftsmen among the golden soldiers. I will ask Lou Ye later to find a good blacksmith to carefully cast the barrel of the gun. Haha, from now on, Shi Wengong, the 'sharp gun', will have the Ghost Crying Spear in your hand and the gun in your waist." The Tai'a sword, the white dragon horse on the crotch, and Zhuangzhuang all have their origins, and they are worthy of your martial arts!"
When everyone heard this, they found that, as expected, Shi Wengong's equipment was a magical one. They couldn't help but be envious and started asking him to treat him. Shi Wengong was very happy to get the treasured spear. He was even more happy when Lao Cao praised his martial arts. He was all smiles at the moment. , nodded repeatedly.
Cao Cao looked back at the battlefield, only to see Wanyan Loushi leading a thousand Jurchen soldiers, who were already fighting against the resentful army. There were more than 20,000 resentful soldiers, and they were like a boiling cauldron. The shouts shook the heaven and the earth. However, Lou Shi's commanding flag was standing high in the formation, moving rapidly, like a live fish leaping in a boiling pot. Obviously, twenty times the resentful army could not stop their front.
Cao Cao looked at it for a while, his expression changed, and he said to Xu Guanzhong: "The courage of the Jurchens is really rare. In my opinion, the resentful army can be called a strong army, but a thousand Jurchens killed the entire army. It is really terrible." Terrible."
He had seen the fierce battle between the Jin soldiers and the Han family's father and son battalions before, and he had already seen the sharpness of the Jin soldiers. However, the disparity in strength between the two sides at that time was far less than it is now. Such a battle was not only shocking, but also more obvious. The bravery of the golden soldiers comes.
Xu Guanzhong also sighed: "The arrogant soldiers who founded the country, their heroic spirit, and blazing fighting spirit are beyond the comparison of ordinary strong armies."
Zhou Tong whispered: "Brother, if these powerful soldiers really come from the south, can we... possibly resist them?"
Cao Cao said: "Brother Lin Chong, what do you think?"
Lin Chong narrowed his eyes and said coldly: "There are less than ten thousand Jurchens, and they are invincible! Although this is an exaggeration, it is not unreasonable. When the day comes, it will be nothing more than exchange for money. Although they are known as the big gold, this level How many troops and horses can we produce?"
Cao Cao laughed loudly after hearing this and stroked Lin Chong's back: "Brother Lin's words have won my heart! I, the Han people, have been here for thousands of years. We have really awakened our fighting spirit and dared to fight and die. No matter how brave the foreigners are, they cannot be my vanguard!" There is no other reason than that there are many people!”
Xu Guanzhong also showed a smile, nodded and said: "What I saw, brother, is wonderful! The word "many people" sounds a bit ridiculous, but it is actually the foundation of my Han family! If it is a flock of sheep, no matter how many there are, it is still people's meat. If it’s a pack of wolves, hehe, a lion, a tiger, a bear, a bear, what kind of beast can’t be eaten?”
At this time, a thick and desolate horn sounded, but it came from the encirclement of the self-pity army.
Wan Yan Huo Nu watched eagerly for a long time. When she heard the sound of the trumpet, she roared wildly and shouted: "Come a thousand warriors and follow me!"
Then they saw the flags of the formation wavering, and a thousand Jurchen soldiers went straight towards the enemy formation.
Sun Li frowned and said, "There are only a few people there, but if they are served in batches like this, isn't this just adding fuel to the fire?"
Cao Cao looked at it for a moment, shook his head and said: "Brother, there is no fixed way to use troops, you can only adapt to changes. If ordinary soldiers and horses fight like this, it is no different from committing suicide. However, these Jurchens have already been killed into arrogant soldiers. , I am afraid that there is no word of defeat in my heart. Such soldiers and horses are best at fighting fiercely. They come in batches. They are no longer limited by adding fuel, but are pressing together with one force. The previous thousand people have stirred up resentment. The entire army has not been able to eat enough, so if another thousand people come here, won't their appetites be broken?"
Everyone looked eagerly, and sure enough, as Wanyan Huonv entered, the resentful army was slightly in chaos.
What's even more terrifying is that the two groups of golden soldiers fighting in the formation never merged. Instead, they responded to each other and fought independently.
Previously, the resentful army could surround the golden soldiers in the formation, but now the golden soldiers came out of the formation from time to time, but did not leave, turning around and charging in again.
If the previous lineup of the resentful army was like a boiling cauldron, then now...
"The pot is leaking!"
Lao Cao's eyes narrowed slightly and he sighed.
Lin Chong watched intently and murmured: "It's time to blow the trumpet again."
The words fell and the trumpet sounded.
The sound of the horn echoes across the earth.
However, this time, it was not the Jurchen soldiers who were dispatched.
Han Qinghe took off his three-pointed two-edged sword, made a sword dance, and said loudly: "Brothers! The Liao Kingdom selected us to form a resentment army, and used our resentment to destroy our families to defeat the Jurchens. However, the Jurchens did not From now on, will we have a good life? Let me, Old Han, say that if you want to live a good life, you must fight from the edge of the knife! Now that the Jin country is powerful and the Jurchen population is limited, we can use it as long as we need it, why can't Aguda Emperor? Are you willing to renew the generous reward?"
Han Chang also shouted: "Lord Lou, please keep my father and son safe, you can see how sincere you are waiting for us! As for the people of Liao, have you forgotten that we almost froze to death last winter? I will go into battle today and let the other six battalions watch." At first glance, what does it mean to lead a horse to a good man rather than be a master to a leprous man! Mr. Lou Shi said it well, only a good man values a good man. Those of you who want to be a good man should follow my father and fight to become rich and glorious! kill"
Han Qinghe shouted: "Kill!" He rode out first, and more than 3,000 old troops under his command all shouted the word "kill". Following Han Qinghe, they fiercely pounced on Jioripao Ze.
Han Chang's face was full of excitement, but his injury was not healed, but he couldn't help fighting such a fierce battle. With a few close soldiers, he came to Cao Cao's side angrily and glared at Hua Rong: "If it weren't for you, I would have made extraordinary achievements today!"
Xie Zhen replied angrily: "If it weren't for you, wouldn't my brother be able to make meritorious deeds?"
Cao Cao said calmly: "General Xiao Han, don't be anxious. Why are you sent when there are still 800 Jurchens left?"
Han Chang was stunned: "Of course it's because we can fight!"
Lin Chong and Hua Rong laughed together, especially Zhou Tong and Ruan Xiaoqi. One laughed the loudest and the other laughed the most.
Han Chang said angrily: "Why do you think so?"
Cao Cao said: "The Resentful Army is Xiao Qian's thorn in the side. The Resentful Army is fighting to the death here. Where is Xiao Qian?"
Han Chang took a breath of cold air and felt his hair stand on end: "You mean... didn't Lou Shi have plotted against you? Aren't you angry?"
Cao Cao smiled and waved his hand: "Although we only have more than a hundred people, our combat power is not weak. In Lou Shi's opinion, with the eight hundred Jurchens, it is enough for a thousand people. As the commander-in-chief, he counts every ounce of available strength. It’s my job to do my best, so why should I be angry?”
Han Chang shook his head and said: "But no one knows how many soldiers and horses Xiao Qian will bring!"
Cao Cao put away his smile and took a deep look at him: "General Xiao Han, you are also a rare brave general, but this is the difference between you and the Jurchens. I have now seen the Jurchens' bravery! From my perspective , they don't care at all how many soldiers and horses the opponent has. No matter if it is ten thousand or one hundred thousand, in Wanyan Loushi's heart, as long as there are a thousand Jurchens, they can compete - after he defeats the resentful army, he will look back and strike. , is victory.”
Lin Chong said with a smile: "In this way, the Lou family considers us and more than a hundred people to be used as two hundred Jurchens, so they are very willing to take us seriously!"
Xu Guanzhong looked at the battlefield from a distance and said calmly: "Maybe the one who pays more attention to me is my brother."
Han Changwu opened his mouth to himself: "This, this is...even if it is Wanyan Lou's room, he is too generous..."
"Are you asking me?" Cao Cao smiled slightly, with an indescribable look in his eyes: "General Xiao Han, if you follow Wanyan Agu to fight and defeat the enemy ten times or dozens of times in every battle, you won't I feel that he is overconfident... Haha, the word "victory" has been engraved in the Jurchen's bones and blood."
While they were talking, a fast horse came galloping from the west. Not long after, two of the eight hundred Jurchens who were left behind, Mou Ke, led by the two, came over reluctantly, saluted Cao Cao, and said: " Wu Jiedu just came to report that there is a Liao army coming from the west. Judging from their uniforms, they should be the cavalry of the Xi tribe... Lord Lou left an order before going to battle. If there are enemies coming to kill, it is up to you. Command us to fight, and when he defeats the resentful army, we will come to our aid."
Han Chang looked like he had seen a ghost: "The Lou family actually asked you to command the Jurchen soldiers to fight?"
Cao Cao listened to Xu Guanzhong's translation of Muke's words and said expressionlessly: "In this case, I am willing to follow Brother Lou's arrangement. As long as you can obey the order, maybe we can defeat the enemy before the enemy army is defeated."
When Xu Guanzhong passed the message, the two Jurchen conspirators looked shocked: We Jurchens are already crazy, but this Song man is even crazier than us?
There is a different teaching: Although I know the bravery of the Jin soldiers, my talent and affection are unknown to him. Let's try our swords and guns for a while, and leave my name in the north to wait for the king's master.
