Riding and cutting the imperial pirates of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 536 Wei Yan vs. Gan Ning

Under this exclamation, as if subconsciously reacting, without the order of Yang Hong and Gan Ning, the countless bowstrings on the top of the city were pulled open at the same time, and immediately arrows rained down, shooting towards the slope where Wang Zheng and others were. .

It's a pity that the distance between the two sides is too far, even if the nearest one is shot, it is still dozens of steps away from the forefoot of Wang Zheng and others' horses.

At the same time, the moment the flashlight saw Yang Hong, Huang Zhong's eyes were also filled with murderous intent, and he immediately drew out the bow from his waist. Before the flashlight disappeared, Huang Zhong fully drew the bow and mounted the arrow.

The feather arrow made a shrill whistling sound in the night sky, pierced into the sky, and shot straight to the top of the city, Yang Hong.

Even if they knew Huang Zhong's ability, neither of the two sides believed that the arrow could hit Yang Hong. First, the distance was too far, and even if the force was strong enough to get close, it might not be accurate.
There are many generals standing beside Yang Hong.

Sure enough, just as the feather arrow was about to hit Yang Hong's face, a tall figure suddenly flashed out from the side, and then he raised his armor knife, and picked the arrow obliquely, the feather arrow immediately deviated from the direction, but Still unabated, he slammed into the side pillar with a "bang".

"There is such a level of archery in the world?"

Seeing this scene, Yang Hong looked a little stunned.

Just kidding, they are still powerless to shoot from the top of the city, but on the other side, an arrow against the wind not only hits the top of the city, but if Gan Ning didn't pull the arrow in front of the battle, it seems to be able to hit him
This terrifying strength and miraculous precision are simply beyond people's imagination!
The other generals on the side also looked at each other, showing horror, only Gan Ning looked down at the city with a serious expression, looked at the figure holding the bow beside Wang Zheng, and remained silent.

This is the second time Gan Ning has seen this kind of archery in a short period of time, and he finally knows who the masked man was.

It is said that Huang Zhong, the general of the bear and the tiger, has both swords and bows, and his reputation is indeed well-deserved
The soldiers at the side took down the feathered arrow and hurried back to present it to Yang Hong. Yang Hong gently stroked the half of the arrowhead, looked at it carefully for a long time, and said in a deep voice, "This arrow is so vicious!"

"You guys will fight against each other in the future, you must be careful of the enemy general Huang Zhong!"

the other side.

Seeing that Gan Ning's actions ruined his family's good affairs, Huang Zhong couldn't help but snorted coldly, turned his eyes to Wang Zheng and said, "My lord, if I knew today, I shouldn't be merciful and spare this guy's life."

"Haha, Gan Xingba is also a brave general. It is said that he is also good at archery. When we fight in the future, you all need to be more careful."

Wang Zheng smiled, raised his whip and lightly patted his mount, and turned away. The generals of Xuzhou followed closely behind, kicking up the dust and leaving without mentioning it since returning to the barracks.

An hour later, Wang Xiong personally commanded a hundred Qingzhou infantrymen to shoot all the surrender letters into the city outside the west gate.

The usual method of defending the city is that all the guards on the top of the city are in line with the team and are guarded by officers.Letters sent by the enemy are forbidden to be intercepted privately, and must be handed over to the public.After summarizing, the generals on duty will hand over to the coach.However, it is said that it is forbidden to intercept privately, and it is difficult to find out if soldiers really leave a half-enclosed letter quietly.

Nearly a thousand letters of surrender were piled up in front of the case table in the commander's mansion in the city.Yang Hong and Gan Ning opened several letters respectively. The seals were different. Some were written to Li Ren, some were written to Gan Ning, and even one signed by Wang Zheng actually pointed out that it was written to Yang Hong himself.

Yang Hong and Gan Ning looked at each other, what each was thinking, no one else could know.I saw Gan Ning laughing and said: "It's a divorce plan, this little boy Wang Yukou wants to use it to destroy the morale of our army and cause suspicion between us, it's ridiculous!"

Yang Hong nodded, and echoed: "Such a clumsy plan is indeed extremely ridiculous."

Li Ren on the side read the letter thoughtfully for a while, then raised his head and said in a deep voice, "Strange, why didn't you write to Gu Yong?"

"Brother Yuan Tan is loyal, brave and steadfast, and even after a great sage, he understands righteousness," Yang Hong said, "Perhaps Zhu Zi knew that he couldn't make rebellion, so he didn't write it at all?"

"otherwise."

Li Ren shook his head and said: "Yang Jijiu, you are the king's mastermind. You have followed him for a long time, and you have become more trustworthy. If it is difficult to instigate rebellion, Jijiu is better than Gu Yong, but there is Jijiu but no Gu Yong. Why? ?”

That's right, no matter how good Gu Yong's reputation is, after all, he was newly attached to Yuan Shu not long ago. Could it be that Yang Hong's loyalty to Yuan Shu is not as good as Gu Yong's?It doesn't make sense.

Gan Ning was startled when he heard the words, stood up, and walked around the room twice: "Yeah, why didn't you write to Mr. Gu? Huh? Yang Jijiu, what are you looking at? You're so absorbed. "

"nothing."

Yang Hong pretended to smile, and calmly packed up a letter he had just picked up in his hand, and he didn't fold the letter properly in a hurry.The candlelight flickered, illuminating a few lines of writing on it.

Written to Gan Ning and signed to Xuzhou Wangzheng, the content of the letter is that as long as Gan Ning is willing to surrender and offer Yang Hong's head, the great success will be accomplished in the future, and he can choose a county in Yangzhou as the prefect, and promise not to seize his military power .

When Yang Hong returned to Shouchun from Hefei that day, he sent someone to find out. At the banquet that day, both Gu Yong and Gan Ning took the initiative to agree with Yuan Shu's Northern Expedition!
As for whether he was deceived, provoked, or had already secretly communicated with Wang Zheng, no one knows.

Under the dark clouds and thunder, the expressions of the people in the candlelight were different.

Early the next morning, the Xuzhou army launched its first offensive.As the location of the attack, Wang Zheng chose the most heavily guarded east gate in Shouchun. Wei Yan and Zhou Tai volunteered to participate in the first wave of attack at the same time.

From the moment the war started, it fell into a fierce battle.

The guard of the east gate asked Gan Ning for help three times in less than a quarter of an hour. The battle was not over before noon, and the city wall collapsed in two places.Zhou Tai and Wei Yan took turns to lead the team to attack the city gate, but saw the red flag waving, and the arrows were like locusts.The fireworks filled the air, and the killing sound shook the sky.

Huang Zhong and Qiao Wan led thousands of cavalry troops, not only supporting the infantry, but also approaching the city from time to time, shooting arrows up, assisting the infantry's archers and catapults to suppress the long-range attack of the Shouchun army.

After all, the Xuzhou army had only rested overnight, and their strength could not be fully recovered. After fighting until the afternoon, their stamina was slightly insufficient.

However, Wang Zheng's commander-in-chief did not retreat half a step, and everyone held the flags like a revolving lantern, one at the front for a while, and the other for a while.Fight endlessly.

The enemy's attack was so fierce, Gan Ning of the Shouchun army couldn't sit still, and he had already climbed to the top of the city, braving arrows and stones to lead the battle.

The defense force of the east city gate was originally the strongest, but Wang Zheng had premeditatedly ordered Wu Sheng, Huang Zhong and others to stay in Hefei, and made countless siege equipment under the nose of the enemy. There are really too many ladders, trebuchets, and even bed crossbows. In addition, the soldiers of the Heavenly Army are not afraid of death, and Huang Zhong and other generals have not retreated a little since the battle. The attack was so fierce that for a while, the East City Gate seemed to be collapsing at every turn.

Gan Ning did not dare to be negligent, so he had to call in a lot of guards from other city gates one after another.

The shouts of the soldiers suppressed the thunder, and their sweat moistened the air even more.The corpses of those who died in battle were poured all over the city and the blood flowed like a river. The depressions made by the trebuchets on both sides were all over the city wall and the ground. The tattered flags and the city head complement each other. Go grab the glory of being the first to go uptown.

It was almost evening in the battle, and there was a loud applause on the top of the city. The soldiers on both sides looked around and shouted at the same time, but one cheered excitedly, while the other sighed depressedly. It was someone from Xuzhou who finally boarded the city. head.

It was Wei Yan!

Wei Yan is used to using long swords, but today he chose a spear made of fine iron. He is already very strong. In his hands, this spear is more likely to be smashed or swept with brute force, regardless of the enemy's sword or sword. Whether it's guns or spears, they smash everything indiscriminately, and they are invincible for a while.

There is a general in Yangzhou who is brave enough to stop him with a spear. Wei Yan yells and dodges the long spear he stabs. , Immediately beat the man's head to pieces, blood burst and splashed everywhere.

Another silver-armored general came and asked, "Coming general."

Before the words fell, Wei Yan swept back the iron spear without turning his head back, like a whip, directly knocked the general into the air, and fell straight to the bottom of the city. Kai He asked the following two words: "Who?"

"It's Wei Wenchang, Yiyang!"

Seeing Wei Yan's bravery, all the soldiers on the top of the city, regardless of enemy or friend, were all horrified. Following the silver-armored general came a man dressed as a captain. Seeing that the situation was not good, he turned around and ran away.How could Wei Yan let him go away?With his left foot, he gently picked up the spear of the first slain lieutenant on the ground, turned sideways, and threw it vigorously, hitting the back of the fleeing captain.

The chest and back of the captain's battle suit was inlaid with an arrow-proof heart shield, which shows that the armor is well defended, but Wei Yan's strength is too strong, and he can only hear the crisp sound of "cracking", and the spear pierces the heart shield. Then there was another scream, but the gun head was unabated, it directly penetrated the captain's entire body, showing it outside, exposing his chest, seeing that he could not survive.

Wei Yan still refused to let him go, and rushed forward, before he fell down, the spear pulled again, and beat the man's head to pieces.

The spear is a weapon suitable for stabbing, but this is the first time for everyone to see someone using it as a whip and hammer. For a while, everyone on the guard side was terrified and shouted in terror: "Where did the murderer come from? Cruel!"

The Xuzhou army came back to their senses, but cheered even more: "Little Guan Yu! Little Guan Yu!"

After Hulao Pass, Guan Yu's prestige has spread all over the world. Because Wei Yan, like Guan Yu, has a face like a jujube and loves to use long knives, he did not know when he got this nickname in the Xuzhou army.

Hearing this, Wei Yan's face twitched slightly, but he turned angry instead of liking it. If someone else was called like that, he might feel very proud, but what kind of person is Wei Yan? He is also arrogant, so how could he accept such a nickname ?
Besides, even if you said it was Xiao Huang Zhong, I would recognize him, Guan Yu?That was Liu Bei's subordinate, he had even made an enemy of Wang Zhoumu, even beheaded Zhang Rao, and was hated by the direct descendants of the Heavenly Army.
Isn't it causing trouble for me to address you like this?

This made Wei Yan's thoughts even more firm: the long knife will never be used again in the future!
Wei Yan fought fiercely at the top of the city, killed three generals of Shouchun in a blink of an eye, and protected the soldiers who ascended the city after him to file up, gradually trying to gain a firm foothold at the top of the city.There is one person beside him, with a black face like iron and a beard like a hedgehog, it is Liang Gang, the general of the Runan Faction who had almost fought with Zhou Tai at the banquet that day!

"Wu that thief, I will kill you!"

Liang Gang yelled wildly while galloping over, raised his knife and chopped off, Wei Yan sneered, raised his spear at random, and bravely met him, only heard a loud "bang", it was obvious that the weapon had taken advantage of it, In the end, Liang Gang's sword snapped in such a direct confrontation, and he retreated a few steps even after being hit.

"With this little ability, you dare to speak out?"

Wei Yan sneered, and then let out a violent shout, thrust out with a spear, the spear bent out from the inside, drawing an extremely sharp straight line, the force was so fierce that it even brought out a shrill scream, and it burst through the air. , can make the three armies easy!
This spear stab was too fast and fierce, and its momentum was even more astonishing. Liang Gang was only at a loss for a moment, and the sharp blade was already coming straight to the door!

my life is over
Liang Gang sighed in his heart, and just as he was about to close his eyes and die, he saw a sudden burst of force behind him, pushing him aside abruptly, and then a cold blade suddenly appeared, rippling a sharp wave under the gloomy sky. Hong, withstood Wei Yan's fatal blow head-on!
It was Gan Ning who saw Liang Gang was in critical condition, turned over and jumped forward at the critical moment, drawing his sword to help.

"Gan Xingba? It's just right for you to come!"

Seeing Gan Ning's appearance, Wei Yan's eyes flickered fiercely, and he was very excited.

He has heard of this person's name, and even Huang Zhong once said in private that Wang Zheng has a heart for him. After reading this verse, Wei Yan's heart was so hot that he immediately ignored Liang Gang and waved his long sword. He charged forward with a spear, thinking that if he could capture Gan Ning alive, it would be a great achievement.

This is Wei Yan's overbearing. One must know that the spear is not his usual weapon. It is no problem when facing people like Liang Gang. , but he had already thought about how to capture him alive. Wasn't he bound his hands and feet from the very beginning?

Sure enough, when faced with the same powerful and heavy spear, Liang Gang panicked, but Gan Ning showed a confident smile on his face. From this blow, he could see that Wei Yan was not good at wielding the spear and it was inconvenient to turn it. There is a big flaw, just gently reach out and grab the spear body firmly.

Taking advantage of Wei Yan's astonishment, he looked at the knife even more. The knife followed the people and shot towards Wei Yan's face.

Wei Yan missed a hit, and his momentum immediately weakened by three points. Following the sound of metal and iron, the two separated quickly. Their dozen or so rounds were fought as fast as lightning, and the soldiers on the side couldn't see it clearly. Not to mention who wins and who loses.

Wei Yan's spear was still pointed at the opponent, but his face suddenly turned pale, and beads of sweat oozed out from the corner of his forehead. With a burst of shaking, the spear was propped up on the ground, and then the left shoulder of the armor was pulled apart, revealing a more horizontal appearance. A neat and deep bloodstain pierced into the flesh and blood. Obviously, he was the one who lost the last fight and was stabbed by Gan Ning.

"For the sake of your closeness to Guan Yu, I will spare you today."

Gan Ning sneered, then looked around and asked, "Can you see the enemy general Huang Zhong?"

The surrounding soldiers shook their heads to express their ignorance, Gan Ning didn't stay any longer, and strode straight to other killing places.

How could this guy underestimate me so much?
Wei Yan was so proud by nature, Gan Ning didn't take advantage of the victory to pursue him, but in his eyes, he didn't take him seriously at all and regarded him as a threat, under the mix of embarrassment and anger, he couldn't help roaring, almost spitting out a mouthful of blood.
