line

After midnight, Cen Pojing was not reconciled, and even led more than a hundred elite soldiers to stroll around the city wall.Seeing that he was about to go mad, Chi Heng was naturally very worried and followed closely.

After all, Cui Zihou looked like a very arrogant person, how could he endure such a provocation?

Besides, Yushui City is surprisingly quiet that night, and there is no shooting arrows on the city tower, only the white snow on the ground is shining brightly, reflecting the cold light of the knife, which is very strange.Chi Heng was riding on the horse, thinking that the situation was a bit strange, no matter how Yushui City is usually a coward, there are still some scolding and archery.

Suddenly, the city gate crashed down.The soldiers in the city gate were killed with swords.Flying horses rushed out hundreds of people, and quickly formed a line in front of Chi Heng's soldiers, which seemed to be well-trained.

The one in the middle is naturally Cui Zihou.

Cen Pojing was overjoyed: "Chi Heng, the one named Cui finally came out. I guessed that a dude can't be a son of a bitch and can't stand it."

However, Chi Heng kept complaining, and the soldiers behind Cui Zihou continued to come out. The formation was absolutely correct. If you don't escape, it will be too late.But Cen Pojing didn't leave at all. Instead, he whipped his horse and went straight to the fight.Cui Zihou over there was also not polite, and Pegasus came out, playing with a gun very fast.He doesn't play with flower guns, his guns are sharp and powerful, and he looks as arrogant and confident as his people.

The soldiers of the two formations were solemn.

Cui Zihou probably also held his breath, and apart from anything else, he stabbed Cen Pojing's heart with a gun.He was riding a Qianliwu, and he saw that the horse's hooves were as fast as dark clouds, and he was not afraid of snow.But Cen Pojing couldn't do it, his horse still couldn't move in the snow after all, and his dodging was a little slower. This slowness made it very difficult to use the knife, and he had only the power to parry.

One inch long, one inch spear, Cui Zihou fired more than a dozen shots in succession, forcing Cen Pojing to retreat again and again, unable to fight back.

Seeing that something was wrong, Chi Heng hurriedly whipped his horse to go.

Cui Zihou's lieutenant general saw the situation and immediately rode out to help Cui Zihou.The four quickly fought together, weapons such as knives and guns clanging in the quiet night.Chi Heng also suffers from horsepower. When his Xueqing horse has fought in the snow, it will naturally be difficult.

Cui Zihou has already gained the upper hand, but Cen Pojing still has to show off.

Chi Heng hurriedly said: "Pojing, come back."

It was too late, but then it was too late, Cui Zihou turned his backhand and stabbed straight into Cen Pojing's left arm. There was a loud noise, and the spear just hit the place where there was no armor protection, and the blood was immediately stained red.Fortunately, it was Cen Pojing who flashed fast, otherwise he would have stabbed his heart.

The hero doesn't suffer from immediate losses, so Cen Pojing whips his horse and runs away immediately.

In the second round, Cui Zihou won.

Chi Heng thought that Cen Pojing would definitely drive his horse to fight again, after all, he only injured his elbow, but he didn't expect Cen Pojing to go back to the battle with his horse.Chi Heng couldn't be bothered to fight, so he hastily withdrew.Cen Pojing whistled, and more than a hundred people fled the city wall on horseback.Cui Zihou did not give orders to pursue.

Xue Ye, he would not take this risk.

Back at the camp, still in shock, my heart was pounding loudly.Chi Heng gulped down half a pot of water.Wiping his mouth, Ninjun couldn't help laughing: "Cen Pojing, are you promising? You ran to tease people over and over again, and when you finally teased him out, you were shot, and you ran away if you couldn't beat him, what a shame!"

Cen Pojing took off his clothes, cleaned the wound, and said disapprovingly, "How do you know I'm not fishing?"

"Whoever fishes doesn't know yet!"

"Oh, you think I can't beat him, because the snow on the ground doesn't dare to let go. I've fought so many times, and Cui Zihou's details are all at a loss. Although he is very skilled in marksmanship, he just needs a little bit of ruthlessness. So there is more than enough protection, but not enough to attack. With his ability, with Qu Yang's ruthlessness, I don't know how many times I have been picked off." Cen Pojing grinned, "You dude, you can't be ruthless if you are pampered."

"Be careful of capsizing in the gutter!"

"Whichever gutter I turn over, I won't turn over there!"

Seeing that Cen Pojing was confident, he thought that he must have some kind of plan, so Chi Heng didn't say much, and threw off the quilt to sleep.It was cold, and the cold wind was blowing, as if trying to tear down the tent.When Cen Pojing also lay down, Chi Heng asked: "Why did General Lang go to the capital again?"

"Every time he conquered a city, he had to go back to the capital to report to the emperor. The edict came when Stonezhou was captured last year. He has been evading the instability of Stonezhou, and this time it probably won't be possible."

The most annoying thing for General Lang is the imperial edict.

Seeing that Lang will come back from the capital this spring, he looks very depressed, and the conversation with Huo Chi almost collapsed in a few sentences.Chi Heng counted with his fingers: "Lang will go to the capital for more than half a month, right? Is there nothing to do to come back?"

Cen Pojing raised his eyebrows: "What's the matter? Everyone in the court came to look for him! I heard Liang Huzi say that every time he went back, he had to quarrel with the civil servants and generals of the court. He also quarreled with his brother Yan Wang, and once even contradicted the emperor and suffered dozens of boards. Therefore, General Lang hated going back to Beijing the most, and there was nothing he could do—the whole family was in the capital. Let’s just go back to celebrate the New Year, so don’t talk about it Come back next year too!"

Chi Heng groaned, remembering the big family Lang Jiang mentioned, and didn't speak again.

Slowly fall asleep with the memory on your pillow.

The next day, after the first snowfall, the sky was fine.The snow had already shown signs of melting, and the ground was somewhat wet, but Cen Pojing went to provoke again in high spirits.

Chi Heng did not follow.

Because Gu Zhaochuan asked him and Wen Yunbai to stay and discuss how to attack the city.It's been a few days, if Cui Zihou has been brazen enough to act like a turtle, Yan Wangjun will be the loser.Now that the snow has stopped, reinforcements will inevitably come in a steady stream.

Fire attack, water attack, and siege are all very inapplicable.

Gu Zhaochuan said: "The first is to attack the enemy, the second is to attack the enemy, and the second is to attack the city. Now we are at the bottom, attacking the city, and we still have nothing. If it is to lure and annihilate, Cui Zihou will not accept the trick of aggressive generals at all."

How could Chi Heng not know.

"If you don't capture Yushui City, you won't be able to enter Leizhou. It's a dilemma. We have to think about how to dismantle Cui Zihou, or how to break through the high wall of Yushui City." Gu Zhaochuan looked at Chi Heng, "I'll start by throwing bricks to attract jade." .If we withdraw some soldiers and pretend to attack elsewhere, leaving behind evenly matched troops, Cui Zihou might come out."

Chi Heng said: "In this way, soldiers will get tired easily, and the weather is cold, which will easily cause soldiers to resent."

Gu Zhaochuan also said: "Attack without siege, and siege without attack. Let's surround, and then drive back all the soldiers who came to help. Yushui is an isolated city, and it will naturally fight if it can't hold on. But I don't know Cui Zihou How long can it last, maybe we can't afford it first."

Leizhou has always been safe, so there must be a lot of savings.

When the three of them were scratching their heads, a quick report came, and the messenger rushed to report: "Cen Dutong was captured alive by Cui Zihou!"

Chi Heng was startled.

capture?

Can Cui Zihou capture Cen Pojing alive?He knew that Cen Pojing was eager to win, and he also knew that Cui Zihou was not weak, but he was evenly matched no matter what, how could Cen Pojing be easily captured alive?

According to the messenger, it turned out that Cui Zihou used a trick to lure Cen Pojing into a trap covered with thin snow, and then Cen Pojing went down with a plop, and Rong Yue ran to rescue him, but failed.

Chi Heng immediately picked up the knife, anxious and depressed: "Let Pojing not be too complacent, this is a lesson to be learned, Cui Zihou is really insidious, he must have figured out Cen Pojing's eagerness to win, and he has spotted it He was defenseless today."

Gu Zhaochuan stopped him in time: "Chi Heng, don't worry, Cen Pojing is the general, if he insists he won't come back, Cui Zihou won't fight you easily."

Chi Heng barely remained calm.

"General Cui Zihou has captured the lord. He will definitely take the opportunity to threaten. It is nothing more than to make us evacuate the territory of Leizhou. It is better to use tricks. First, agree with him to withdraw troops; second, agree to exchange prisoners-you immediately send the mother and son of the county. The important captives are brought over; once again, your negotiation will definitely involve a battle, and we will appear demoralized and leaderless, so let him lower his guard." Gu Zhaochuan was so calm, after all, Cen Pojing came to him Said, just the generals of the Allies.

Before he could calm down, he heard a commotion. Chi Heng and others went out to see that it was Rong Yue who led the soldiers and rushed back.

Rong Yue was so angry that he scolded Cui Zihou for being mean and shameless.

After Cen Pojing fell into the trap, Rong Yue hurried to rescue him with his horse. At that moment, a bunch of arrows were shot down on the city wall. It turned out that Cui Zihou had ordered people to lie in ambush on the city wall, waiting for the opportunity to shoot Yan Wangjun. soldiers.The city gate on the other side suddenly opened and a group of people flew out, caught off guard.He had to deal with the superiors and the inferiors at the same time. After the fierce battle between the two sides, Rong Yue reluctantly returned with half of the soldiers.

When Rong Yue came back, an envoy came to deliver the message.

If you don't retreat, you will kill the general.

It seems that Cui Zihou has been planning this day for a long time.

Because Huo Chi and Gu Zhaochuan were the "leaders of the rebellious army", it was inconvenient to come forward, so Chi Heng ordered a thousand elite soldiers to go into battle with Rong Yue.Only 1000 people came to discuss business again, and the gates of Yushui City were wide open.Cui Zihou was still at the front of the horse, with a rare smile on his face: "Deputy Chief Chi, it was you who invaded the front, I will be the first to salute before the soldiers, please retreat, otherwise..."

Without further ado, Chi Heng raised his sword and looked over.

The two fought back and forth fifty or sixty times, one Chi Heng was anxious, the other was worried, and the third was showing timidity on purpose, and soon he was defeated.Cui Zihou came over with a long spear, and Chi Heng rolled straight off his horse.

Cui Zihou stabbed him a few times, Chi Heng stood on the ground in a panic, waving his sword to resist.

Seeing this, Cui Zihou couldn't get any better, so he rode back to the battle.

After a while of drumming, I heard a strange noise from the city wall and the loud booing of Yushui City soldiers.Following Cui Zihou's victorious gaze, on the high wall, Chi Heng saw Cen Pojing tied to a strong wooden stick in embarrassment, with his hands wrapped around his back, cursing.

On the high city wall, Cui Zihou only needs one order, and he may die in Huangquan.

Only the soldiers from Yushui City shouted loudly: "Deputy Chi Dutong, you are limited to retreat a hundred miles tonight. If you don't retreat, Cen Dutong's head will fall to the ground immediately."

Cui Zihou was very satisfied with Chi Heng's panic.

Riding back on his horse in embarrassment, Chi Heng ordered to retreat.

After suffering two consecutive defeats within one day, Rong became more angry: "Retreat, why withdraw? I'll go and compete with Cui Zihou. I can't believe that his marksmanship is so powerful, and no one can stop him."

Chi Heng pulled him back, amused and angry: "You want Cen Pojing to die at the age of 19!"
