The Warriors of the Three Kingdoms

On the contrary, the more he attacked, the more he was blocked by Zu Lang. Zu Lang's serrated steel knife, because of its thickness, had a great advantage in the confrontation with Jiang Qin.

The force generated by a collision fell into the hands of Zu Lang, and the counter-shock force was smaller, while Jiang Qin was able to bear more impact.

At the beginning of the duel, Jiang Qin was still able to hold on, but after a few fights, when the weapons collided together, not only was Jiang Qin's jaw numb from the shock, but even the hand holding the knife began to ache, his muscles were sore, and there was a vague feeling of pain. A feeling of not being able to lift a knife.

At this time, Jiang Qin realized that there was still a gap between himself and Zu Lang.

But Jiang Qin couldn't retreat, he wanted to kill Zu Lang, so he could only grit his teeth and continue to fight Zu Lang here.

I hope that Zhou Tai and others can quickly get rid of those subordinates of Zu Lang so that they can come to help.

At this time, Zu Lang saw the brothers around him start to be killed one by one after the battle, and also realized how powerful Jiang Qin and others are. This time the battle might capsize in the gutter.

The look on Zu Lang's face became more and more serious.

After waiting for a while again, Zu Lang saw that the brothers in the surrounding ships did not come to help, Zu Lang knew that the other brothers were also restrained, and in this way, his last hope was shattered.

Knowing that there is no hope, Zu Lang can only give up at this time.

"Brothers, the situation is wrong, let's withdraw first!"

Zu Lang swung his knife, using his strength to force Jiang Qin back temporarily, gritted his teeth, and began to retreat.

Chapter 177 Fleeing in the Water

At this time, Liu Zheng saw Zu Lang retreating and wanted to escape.

Immediately, his expression became tense, and he shouted at the brothers beside him.

"Don't let that guy Zu Lang get away!"

Gan Ning, who was still fighting with Zu Lang's subordinates, turned his head to look at Zu Lang.

He also realized that Zu Lang wanted to leave at this time, so he pulled his flying sickle back with force, and then took a step forward, rushing towards Zu Lang's direction.

"It's not so easy to run away!"

At this time, Liu Zheng yelled, and Gan Ning, Jiang Qin, Zhou Tai and others rushed towards Zu Lang at the same time.

At this time, Zu Lang also realized that the strength of the people on this ship should not be underestimated, and he could not shake them by using the manpower on the ship, so he fled to his own ship without saying a word after evacuating from the battle.

But seeing that there were enemies all around, even if he could run to his own boat, he couldn't escape completely from here.In the end, he would still be trapped to death on his own boat, and then be outnumbered and besieged and killed.

In desperation, Zu Lang didn't hesitate at all, and jumped up from the deck decisively.

Then it jumped into the river next to it, like a carp crossing the river.

Wagging its tail, it fell into the water, and after a burst of waves, it quickly submerged itself in the water.

Jiang Qin, Gan Ning and others were also taken aback when they saw Zu Lang who jumped into the water so decisively.

"Damn it, Zhou Tai, show me here. If he shows up, shoot him with a bow and arrow, and I'll chase after him!"

Jiang Qin didn't give up after looking at Zu Lang who had jumped into the water. He turned his head and gave Zhou Tai an order behind him, then pinned his weapon around his waist and jumped into the river.

Both of them have been in the waters of Poyang Lake all year round, so the water quality is naturally excellent.

After being submerged in the water, there was no outcropping for a long time.

Liu Zheng stood on the deck, looking back and forth on the river, trying to find the direction where Zu Lang escaped.

Old water thieves like Zu Lang are very good at water, and they seem to be reborn in the water. They can dive for a long time with one breath, and they don’t need to show their heads. You can continue to sneak for a long time. If the boat is forbidden to move here, when he floats up from the water, he will have opened an extremely long distance.

"Bring the bow and arrow!"

Zhou Tai softly yelled at the brothers behind him, and a water thief not far away immediately ran to Zhou Tai and handed Zhou Tai a pair of bows and arrows.

Zhou Tai skillfully held the bow and arrow in his hand, put the arrow on the bow, aimed the arrow at the surface of the river, and waited for Zu Lang to appear at any time.

As long as Zu Lang rises from the water, Zhou Tai will kill him with one arrow.

But as for whether he can hit the target, and whether he will kill Zu Lang with one arrow, that is a matter of two opinions.

Others continued to hunt down Zu Lang's remaining troops, while Liu Zheng, Gan Ning and others kept a close eye on the water.

Not long after, a small black spot appeared on the calm water surface, and a human head broke through the water.

At this time, Zhou Tai, who had been prepared for a long time, narrowed his eyes slightly, and shot out the bow and arrow like a full moon at this time.

The sharp arrow shot out from Zhou Tai's hand, followed his predetermined trajectory, and shot towards the small black spot on the water in the blink of an eye.

With a puff, the sharp arrow broke through the water and entered.

At that time, the little black spot had already disappeared into the water, Zu Lang took a quick breath, and dived quickly as soon as his head came out, although Zhou Tai's bow and arrow shot right at the place where Zu Lang's head came out just now.

But whether the arrow hits the water or not is unknown.

Not long after, Jiang Qin followed suit. He looked around, and after seeing Zu Lang's figure, he turned to look at Zhou Tai. Zhou Tai immediately yelled at Jiang Qin, indicating that Zu Lang had escaped. direction.

After Jiang Qin understood Zhou Tai's words, he swam in the direction Zu Lang was escaping again.

Zhou Tai is still waiting here, but Liu Zheng is unwilling to waste time here.

He is going to chase Zu Lang, these water thieves under Zu Lang's command are nothing to worry about, the only person who really makes Liu Zheng feel threatened is Zu Lang.

As long as Zu Lang can be killed, this battle can be settled, and if Zu Lang escapes from here, and with Zu Lang's strength to make a comeback, it is not a problem to gather another group of people in the waters of Poyang Lake.

So instead of wasting here and letting Zu Lang escape from the river, it is better to pursue him immediately.

Because Liu Zheng already knew the direction Zu Lang was swimming in, he was swimming towards the shore.

"Gan Ning, bring some brothers and follow me!"

Liu Zheng immediately gave Gan Lin an order, then turned around and started running from the boat to the other side of the shore.

The boats on Zu Lang's side forced them to dock before, but now they are given the possibility to reach the shore quickly.

Gan Ning did not continue to fight at this time, but followed Liu Zheng, looking at the water with all his attention.

After Liu Zheng gave an order, he also hurriedly called a few brothers behind him, followed Liu Zheng's pace, and ran down the boat.

There are dense forests on both sides of the river bank. When Liu Zheng and others just ran to the river bank, Zu Lang had already swam up from the water in the distance and just ran to the bank.

The distance between the two sides was no more than a hundred meters.

"There, chase after me!"

Seeing Zu Lang's figure, Liu Zheng immediately yelled at the dozen or so brothers around him, so loudly that Zu Lang who had just landed could also hear him.

Zu Lang turned his head and saw more than a dozen pursuers from Liu Zheng's side, and his face immediately turned ugly.

But without the slightest hesitation, he immediately stepped up and ran towards the forest.

Zu Lang also knew that at this time, there was no chance of escaping along the river bank. Only by running into the dense forest could he rely on the terrain and avoid these people's pursuit.

When Zu Lang jumped into the water, he lost the serrated steel knife in his hand. In order to escape faster, it is normal to lose the weapon. As some defensive purposes, it greatly slowed down his escape speed.

Without the burden of weapons, Zu Lang can let go and run, increasing the chance of escaping from these enemies.

Liu Zheng watched Zu Lang run into the dense forest like this, and immediately accelerated his pace to catch up. At the same time, Jiang Qin, who jumped into the water after Zu Lang, also swam to the shore at this time.

Unlike Zu Lang, Jiang Qin didn't throw away his weapon. After all, if Jiang Qin didn't have a weapon, he wouldn't be Zu Lang's opponent.

Although Zu Lang ran into the forest first, the speed of Liu Zheng and others was not too slow. In addition, Zu Lang was covered in water when he came out of the water, making it inconvenient to run and unable to hide his figure.

Wherever he passed, there were water marks everywhere, and it was easy for Liu Zheng and others to find his hiding place based on the water marks on the ground.

Chapter 178

Not long after, Liu Zheng and others were only a few meters away from Zu Lang's position.

Seeing Zu Lang right in front of him, Liu Zheng suddenly thought that maybe the problem could be solved without killing Zu Lang, so Dang even opened his mouth and shouted at Zu Lang's back from a distance.

"Zu Lang, surrender, you can't escape, surrender now, I can guarantee your safety!"

Zu Lang was still spreading his legs and running forward, and his expression became more serious, because he also noticed that the pursuers were getting closer and closer to his position. According to this situation, it was only a matter of time before he was caught up. It's just a problem.

But suddenly he heard the voice of persuading him to surrender from behind, which slightly touched the expression on Zu Lang's face.

If he continued to escape and was caught, it would be a death sentence sooner or later, but Liu Zheng suddenly said that persuading him to surrender would guarantee his safety, which made Zu Lang feel like surrendering, but soon he shook his head again .Deny this idea.

Not to mention, is Liu Zheng qualified to guarantee his safety? If in case this is just a false surrender, he will be killed backhanded, who can he turn to for reasoning?

Anyway, he can't trust Liu Zheng. After all, these people are full of tricks. If he can trust him, he won't suffer from this trick of pretending to be a merchant ship.

But Zu Lang didn't want to run away like this. If he ran like this, he couldn't see the hope of life.

After running another few tens of meters, Zu Lang might have figured it out, summoned up his courage, and responded to Liu Zheng.

"You said you could guarantee my safety? Why should I trust you?"

Liu Zheng chased Zu Lang and ran for tens of meters. He didn't seem to look back when he saw Zu Lang. He thought Zu Lang didn't intend to surrender at all. He was still wondering, Zu Lang in history would surrender to Sun Ce , Why don't you want to surrender to him.

After hearing Zu Lang's answer, Liu Zheng realized that it turned out that Zu Lang didn't believe Liu Zheng, thinking that Liu Zheng couldn't guarantee his safety.

Thinking of this, Liu Zheng showed a smile on his face, and hurriedly answered Zu Lang again.

"I am the commander of the Yellow Turban Army Runan Daqu. Although I will quit the Yellow Turban Army now, what I said is still effective. I said I will protect you from death. Even if the king of heaven comes, I will not be able to kill you!"

In order to win the trust of Yu Zulang, Liu Zheng deserves to brag about it.

As soon as these words were spoken, Zu Lang suddenly realized.

Only then did he carefully reflect on the word Liu Zheng, and immediately thought of it. When he first heard the word Liu Zheng, he always felt a little familiar, as if he had heard it somewhere.

It’s just that he never remembered it. Now when he suddenly heard Liu Zheng report that he was from the Yellow Turban Army, Zu Lang remembered that he had just heard his subordinates report that there was an epidemic in the Runan area. The powerful Yellow Turban Army, they broke into Luoyang and even killed Emperor Han.

Zu Lang didn't take it seriously at the time, anyway, the Yellow Turban Army was far from him, so he didn't take it seriously, but now after hearing the name, he realized clearly that his defeat was not wronged.

Knowing who Liu Zheng is, Zu Lang didn't believe in Liu Zheng from the heart, and now he has some trust in Liu Zheng, Zu Lang is unwilling to continue running away, and his fast running legs are gradually slowing down at this time up the speed.

After running a few steps, Zu Lang stopped.

Turning around, he looked at the pursuers behind him.

At this time, Zu Lang had given up his resistance, looking at Liu Zheng instead, he had a calm expression of survival.

"It turns out that you are Liu Zheng, the commander-in-chief of the famous Yellow Turban Army Runan Daqu. I wonder why this name is so familiar!"

Zu Lang looked at Liu Zheng, and at this moment, he took another careful look at Liu Zheng.

After Liu Zheng saw Zu Lang stop, he gradually slowed down his pace, and then came to Zu Lang's side, followed Gan Ning and others, and surrounded Zu Lang.

"Zulang, are you willing to surrender?"

"If you surrender to Liu Zhengqu, I'd rather be willing, but if you surrender to Jiang Zhou Zhou's thief, hmph, then no!"

Zu Lang still has some backbone. After all, his strength is not weak, and he also looks down on Jiang Zhou Zhou's thief. It is understandable that he is unwilling to surrender to Jiang Zhou Zhou's thief.

Of course, as long as Zu Lang is willing to surrender to him, Liu Zheng will naturally accept it without hesitation.

"Well, as long as you are willing to surrender to me, I will protect you. Even if Jiang Qin and Zhou Tai come over, I will not hand you over to them."

With Liu Zheng's guarantee, the last trace of worry on Zu Lang's face seemed to be gone, and the solemn look on his face looked a little better.

"The surrendered general, Zu Lang, is willing to join Qu Shuai, and I hope Qu Shuai will take him in!"

Zu Lang is a smart man. He knows that Liu Zheng recruited him because he was interested in his strength. Now, in this situation, Zu Lang naturally knelt down to show his loyalty in order to protect himself. Only in this way can he survive will be big.

Although his ancestor was not afraid of death, he licked blood on the knife edge, and lived the life of a water thief who robbed houses, who was afraid of death, but who would want to die if he could live.

Before Liu Zheng agreed to Zu Lang and said that he would accept his surrender, Jiang Qin, who came belatedly, had already arrived here.And as soon as he got here, he raised his knife and slashed at Zu Lang's body.

"Dog thief, accept your life!"

Jiang Qin's knife slashed from a distance, the cold light flashed across, and the white light fell, and it was about to fall on Zu Lang's body.

Seeing this, Liu Zheng was also surprised, but hurriedly scolded Gan Ning.

"Gan Ning, stop him!"

Gan Ning stood beside Zu Lang, even if Zu Lang wanted to hide, he just stood back a little bit, and Gan Ning swung a flying scythe to block Jiang Qin's sword.

With a clanging sound, Jiang Qin's knife did not hit Zu Lang, but was easily blocked by Gan Ning.

After being blocked, Jiang Qin immediately frowned and looked at Liu Zheng.

"Liu Zhengqu is handsome, what does this mean?"

Jiang Qin didn't know that Zhu had already taken refuge with Liu Zheng, thinking that Zu Lang was stopped by Liu Zheng and others, waiting for him to kill him.

Liu Zheng smiled and replied to Jiang Qin.

"Brother Jiang Qin, you can't kill this man!"
