At dawn the next day, Tong Guan's troops came to the riverside, and Fang Tianding also led his troops out of the city. They were still arrayed on both sides of Jiangzhang Bridge just like yesterday.
Tong Guan puffed up his chest and shouted: "Fang Tian is determined to be a traitor! Yesterday you were lucky enough to get a draw, but today I will teach you a big defeat."
Not to be outdone, Fang Tianding yelled back: "Bah! Old eunuch! How dare you say such big words? We will all be defeated today."
The generals on both sides opened their mouths, Tong Guan pursed his lips, Liu Yanqing waved his hand next to him, and a general in his forties with a curly beard flew onto the bridge. With a long sword in his hand, he pointed at the southern formation. Zhong shouted: "I am Wang Yuan, the commander of Linzong Village in Huangzhou. Who dares to come and fight me?"
Shi Jin flew out on horseback: "Shi Jin, the hero of Liangshan, the 'Nine-Patterned Dragon' is here!"
Tong Guan had previously heard that Liangshan had sent a partial army to help Fang La, and he had always been a little worried -
Two years ago, the imperial court sent several large armies to conquer Liangshan, but he defeated them all and scattered them all.
Afraid that the officials would learn about the accusation, they conspired with Cai Jing, Gao Qiu and others to cover up the situation by falsely claiming that the soldiers and horses were not acclimatized to the climate and many people in the army died of illness. Fortunately, Liangshan could not leave the water after that, so he was very honest. , just pretend to turn a blind eye.
Unexpectedly, the honest Liangshan is unwilling to be lonely now and helps Fang La in the war. It doesn't matter. What he is afraid of is that Liangshan is very quiet and wants to move, and he will send out all his troops to attack Bianliang without any reason. If that happens, the officials will be frightened. , Long Xin was furious and opened up old accounts, spending a lot of time and effort.
He frowned and thought about it. The two generals on the bridge had already been killed in a group.
Wang Yuan was also a famous brave general in the Western Army. The long sword in his hand was extremely powerful. Shi Jin was no ordinary person. He danced the three-pointed and two-edged sword into a cold light without losing any edge.
The two of them fought back and forth for sixty years. Wang Yuan thought to himself: "This man's swordsmanship is like that of a famous master, and he is as old as a dragon and a tiger. How can I win if I don't use some unique moves?"
Immediately sell the flaw, twist the horse and leave.
Shi Jin was about to pursue him, but suddenly he remembered the teachings of Cao Cao and Tang Bin, asking him to be calm and know how to advance and retreat. He immediately reined in his horse and said with a smile: "Since you admit defeat, I will let you live."
After saying that, he pulled the reins and returned to the main formation without any hurry or delay.
Wang Yuan thought that he was skilled in bow and horse, and he deceived Shi Jin into a young man. He wanted to trick Shi Jin into chasing him, and took the opportunity to stab someone secretly. Unexpectedly, Shi Jin was very experienced. When the Buddha was born and the two Buddhas ascended to heaven, they immediately turned to chase Shi Jin, beating the horses like flying, and shouted: "Who said I gave up? Come back quickly and fight me again!"
Shi Jin didn't even look back, just did what he said. He quietly hung the knife on the victory hook, took out the bow and arrows from the saddle, suddenly turned around and looked at the moon. The bow was opened like the moon. Where he let go, the carved feather arrow hit Wang Yuan's horse's left eye.
The horse neighed sadly and fell to the ground, knocking Wang Yuan down. Thanks to his good skills, he somersaulted up, turned around and ran away. Shi Jin laughed loudly. Cao Cao saw him in the formation, and couldn't help but burst into joy. nod.
Fang Tianding was also beaming and praised loudly: "As expected of Liangshan's 'Nine Patterns Dragon', what a luxury!"
In the fifth game, it was time for the Southern Army to send people to fight first. Tang Bin and Shi Bao looked at each other, and Tang Bin said: "Brother Shi is holding the battle for me. This time, let the younger brother fight."
After saying that, they went out to fight with their spears. On the side of the Song army, Wang De came out with an axe. The two of them did not say anything and just started fighting. After more than 40 rounds of fighting, Tang Bin was finally weak and was chopped down by Wang De with a quick axe. Danger was everywhere, and Cao Cao didn't want to meet Tong Guan, so he hid behind him and urged Fang Qifu: "Brother Fang, quickly admit defeat for me."
Fang Qifu was also afraid that the Liangshan guest general would be lost, so he held the Green Dragon Halberd upside down and ran to the bridge and shouted: "Song General, wait a minute! We will admit defeat this time."
Wang De laughed loudly, Tang Bin lowered his head and returned. Cao Cao comforted him: "Brother, don't worry about it. After all, we defeated this fierce general of his. After a while, Brother Shi Bao will definitely win."
In the sixth game, the leader of the Huanqing Army, Yang Keshi, took action in person.
The long stick mentioned by Yang Keshi has a long history: it was made by Yang Wulang Yang Yande in the past. It is as white as jade and is named "Baizhen".
It turned out that when this man was young, he was a escort in Shanxi. By chance, he rescued an eminent monk from Wutai Mountain. The monk felt his kindness and gave him this stick as a gift and taught him a set of stick techniques. The sword skills and spear skills inherited from the Yang family were integrated into one, and the sixty-four stick skills were carefully deduced, which coincided with the number of the eighty-eight sixty-four hexagrams, hence the name "Wulang Bagua stick".
Relying on this set of stick skills, Yang Keshi made many military exploits after joining the army. He served as the commander-in-chief of Huanqing Road. He specially trained a thousand heavy armored iron cavalry, all using big sticks, and named him "White Pillar Army".
When Shi Bao saw the long stick coming, he was overjoyed. He thought to himself that the wind-splitting knife in his palm was so sharp that it could cut three layers of heavy armor. If he cut this wooden stick, wouldn't it break at the touch of it?
He immediately galloped his horse to meet the bridge and shouted: "Ming Zun, please take your seat Nanli Grand Marshal Shi Bao and come here for a fight!"
Yang Keshi sneered and said: "You can call any cat or dog the Grand Marshal. It's so shameless."
With a move of "Green Snake Pounce", the stick resembles a living snake, swishing towards Shibao's face.
Shi Bao swung his sword to stop him, exerting enough strength in his hand, he was fully prepared for the sword to break, but unexpectedly, there was a clang, the sound was like gold and stone, the two weapons collided together, but the white stile was not damaged at all.
How did Shi Bao know that this stick was made from the heart of the dragon-subduing wood? It was stronger than iron and could be cut without leaving a mark. He only heard a strange sound and immediately shouted: "You are trying to fool people with an iron stick." ?”
Yang Keshi smiled disdainfully and ignored him: Although the iron rod is strong, it is much heavier. How can it be as light and hard as a white stile? It is quick and labor-saving.
With the force of the collision, the stick circled around his waist, and he threw it out with a "Golden Dragon Tail Swing". Shi Bao blocked it with his sword, seeing that his opponent was powerful in martial arts, he immediately put away his distracting thoughts, and Shen Xin joined him. deal with.
The two swords and sticks were used together, and the fierce wind roared. The battle lasted for more than fifty years, and it was difficult to determine the outcome.
Shi Bao couldn't help but feel annoyed: It's rare that Tang Bin blocked Wang De for me. There is no opponent among the officers and soldiers in our army. How could we know that his powerful generals are emerging one after another? This man has excellent stick skills and magical weapons. He has been fighting for a long time. If his prestige is slightly weakened, how can he be worthy of Tang Bin?
During the fierce fight, he quietly took out the meteor hammer and hid it at the bottom of his wrist, and suddenly slashed it with a knife. Yang Keshi did not doubt that he was there, and waved his stick to meet him. They both used their strength, and the knife and the stick were knocked away at the same time. .
Seeing an opportunity, Shi Bao screamed strangely. His left hand shook, and the meteor hammer turned into a golden light, hitting Yang Keshi's chest, shattering the goggles. He somersaulted and fell, and blood spurted out of his mouth.
Shi Bao secretly shouted: Since we have used hidden weapons to win, we might as well kill him or make him a general! "
The horse swung his sword, about to kill Yang Keshi. Unexpectedly, he raised the sword and suddenly heard the sound of a bowstring. Shi Bao felt a chill in his heart and knew something was wrong. When he subconsciously flashed, his shoulder was pierced by a long arrow - luckily it was If he were to dodge quickly, if he were even a moment slower, the arrow would have opened a hole in his heart.
Shi Bao had a ferocious face and looked angrily, but it was the veteran general Wang Shunchen who held a bow in his hand and looked at him coldly and said: "You wanted to admit defeat before, but did we pursue you? We have already decided the victory or defeat, but you still want to carry out this vicious attack. This One arrow is your lesson.”
Shi Bao knew that this man was very skilled in archery, so he didn't dare to make any mistakes. He nodded and sneered: "Wonderful, wonderful, this lesson has been learned by Shi Bao."
Covering the wound, he slowly retreated to the main formation.
On the side of the officers and soldiers, someone also rescued Yang Keshi and returned to the camp for treatment.
Tong Guan's face was as dark as water, and he shouted: "I won one more victory than you! Humph, now you have three wins, we have two wins, and one draw. Everyone has injuries today. Let's stop fighting for the time being and wait until tomorrow to decide the winner. Either I withdraw my troops, or you, little thief, give way to Hangzhou."
Fang Tianding shouted: "That's it!"
I sneered in my heart: How can I still have good players to fight? I'll kill you tonight! Old thief, you fell into my trap.
Both sides had their own evil intentions and retreated.
It was the third watch of the night, and the sky was filled with darkness, without any light from the stars or the moon.
Tong Guan and Fang Tianding looked at the sky inside and outside Hangzhou, and smiled ferociously at the same time: "It's wonderful, the moon is dark and the wind is high, it's a murderous night, it's God who helps me succeed! Send troops!"
Not long after, the north gate of Hangzhou was opened wide. Fang Qifu, wearing his helmet and armor, led Pang Wanchun and 17 flying generals, leading 50,000 troops, and rushed directly to Tongguan's camp in the dark.
Less than two miles away from here, there was a loud killing sound in the east of the city. Huanqing and Xihe soldiers and horses set off countless torches and attacked the city.
On the west bank of the West Lake, there were densely packed rafts and small boats. Huang Di, the commander of Huang Yan's army, shouted in a deep voice: "Don't make any noise, take advantage of the sound of killing in the east of the city and seize his water gate in one fell swoop."
This is exactly what it is: talking and laughing during the day and shutting up at night, you have mechanisms and I have plans. Here they are cheering to rob Dazhai, and there they are bravely marching to the top of the city.
