"What?!"
"What did you say?!"
"A big defeat?"
"Qian Er is dead?!"
Zhu Yue fell on the chair. He was so frightened that Zhao Da quickly stepped forward to caress his chest and beat his back. It took a while before he gasped and calmed down.
"Speak slowly!"
"what happened?!"
Zhu Yue's eyes were scarlet and he asked Zhao Da with gritted teeth.
When Zhao Da saw this, he quickly knelt down with a plop.
This was the first time in so many years that he saw Zhu Yue lose his composure.
He also knew that Qian Er was different from others. If we say that among the twelve of them, the one who received the most respect from the governor was undoubtedly Qian Er.
Qian Er is also the smartest among their brothers.
But he died, no wonder the governor had this reaction.
"grown ups!"
"These two people seem to be from Hezhou. They look like Qian Er and Ge Hong's men. They just came all the way and are already exhausted."
Zhao Da pointed at the two people behind him.
The two men were being held up and could no longer stand. This was because they had been riding horses for a long time.
At this time, I was gasping for air and still couldn't speak.
"grown ups!"
"My subordinates find it incredible. How could both groups be defeated?"
"It's fine if Ge Hong loses, but Qian Er seems to have led four to five thousand men. Qian Er is good at arranging troops and carrying siege equipment. How could he be defeated and defeated?"
Zhao Da asked doubtfully on the side.
"Bye...meet you, sir."
"Goodbye..."
The two men broke away from the soldiers on both sides and knelt down in front of Zhu Yue.
"you!"
"Didn't you go to Shanqian County?"
"what happened?"
"Say it!"
Zhu Yue asked the soldier who went to attack Shanqian County.
"Sir, we went all the way to Shanqian County, but before we reached the county seat of Shanqian County, we were ambushed!"
"Caught off guard, we suffered heavy losses!"
"At the beginning, it was just a small group of people, occupying a favorable terrain. It was difficult for us to fight back. Mr. Qian led us to get rid of it as soon as possible, but we didn't expect that it would start later."
"It was almost impossible to move an inch. All the scouts were killed. We were attacked in turns. Our troops didn't have time to spread out, and more than half of them were killed or injured!"
"Master Qian saw this and ordered a retreat. After all, our siege equipment was also burned."
"But I didn't expect that those people would not let go of us on the way back, and they chased us all the way. We finally escaped back to Zhonggu County, and only a few hundred of us were left."
The man said with a scared look on his face.
"Where's Qian Er?"
"How did he die?"
Zhu Yue's hands tightly grasped the armrests of the chair.
"Master Qian was killed by a man wearing a fang mask!"
"This person seemed to have expected that we would retreat from there. As soon as we relaxed a little, this person came out with a team of people and we didn't react at all!"
"Master Qian was chopped to death by that man's knife!"
"They are like crazy people. They don't know what grudges are. They don't even say anything when they come up. They just kill in silence. If we hadn't run fast, they would have all been killed."
The soldier said with lingering fear.
"A strong man wearing a fang mask?!"
"Who is it?!"
"Where did such a person come from?! He actually killed my Qian Er?!!!"
Zhu Yue was so hysterical that he swept down all the teacups on the table and dropped them on the floor.
For Zhu Yue, Qian Er may not be the strongest in terms of military force, but he is the best at leading troops under the governor. He has been developing in this direction since he was a child, and he has also read a lot of military books.
In the previous battles, he was always successful, but he died while attacking Shanqian County.
"grown ups!"
"I heard from those grassland people before that when they were attacked, they were also attacked by some people wearing masks. They must all be together."
Zhao Da said on the side.
"what about you?!"
"Didn't Ge Hong lead five thousand troops? How could it fail?"
"You haven't even arrived at Yunzhong County, right?"
"Is he Ge Hong dead?"
Zhu Yue turned to the other person and asked coldly.
"Sir...sir..."
"Master Ge is not dead..."
"We have arrived at the outskirts of Yunzhong County..."
The person on Ge Hong's side swallowed hard.
Zhu Yue's eyes turned cold after hearing this.
Mudd!
The damned ones are not dead, the damned ones are dead!
What is this thing called? !
"go on!"
Zhu Yue was already gritting his teeth.
The soldiers on Ge Hong's side looked up and saw Zhu Yue's ferocious appearance. They were so frightened that they knelt down and kowtowed.
I was originally glad that they were alive, but now that the governor meant it, they might as well be dead...
"Made!"
"Kowtow!"
"Speak quickly!"
Zhu Yue couldn't hold himself any longer and kicked the man sent by Ge Hong.
The man almost cried in grievance.
Did I provoke you? I finally came back alive...
But they still gritted their teeth, held back tears, and told them about their experiences in Yunzhong County.
turn out to be.
Ge Hong and the others led five thousand troops all the way to the outskirts of Yunzhong County. They did not encounter any major resistance along the way.
Not even a sneak attack or ambush.
At the beginning, Ge Hong and the others were very cautious.
He didn't walk very fast along the way. When he got to the back, he saw that there was no danger, so he speeded up.
But when they arrived outside the Yunzhong County House, they were dumbfounded.
A huge trench appeared a hundred meters away from the Yunzhong County capital.
Although they had received news before about digging trenches around Yunzhong County, they did not expect that it would be such a big project.
This trench is at least a hundred meters wide and two people deep. You can see that there used to be a wooden bridge on the other side, but it has been taken back. Across this trench, even bows and arrows could not reach the city wall.
Ge Hong was dumbfounded.
This is not the most important thing.
The most important thing is that when Ge Hong and the others came outside Yunzhong County, the entire gate of Yunzhong County was open, and there was no sign of anyone on the city wall.
Even if Ge Hong knew there was an ambush here, he had no choice but to tentatively send out scattered troops.
Went all the way to the other side of the trench and found no problems.
He waved to them and rushed into the city.
Upon seeing this, Ge Hong ordered the large group of people to charge collectively.
Unexpectedly, this seemingly ordinary trench actually has many mechanisms. When the scattered people walked past just now, they were very scattered and did not trigger.
But so many people came at once, and they were immediately tricked!
Many people stepped on the trap and fell. There were barbs in the trap and they were penetrated directly.
Caught off guard, many men and horses were lost.
But at this time, many of Ge Hong and the others were already halfway there, with no way to retreat, so they had no choice but to rush over. In Ge Hong's view, the door was now open, and a team of his own men had already entered. Even if there is an ambush, just rush in and you'll be fine.
At this moment, Ge Hong suddenly reacted.
its not right!
A team of his own men clearly rushed in, but why is there still no reaction at all?
Just when Ge Hong was surprised.
Suddenly there was an earth-shattering sound in the distance.
Immediately afterwards, there was a rush of rushing water.
