Become a disciple of Taoist Priest Four Eyes

Chapter 888: Zhang Xutuo values ​​love and justice

…

‘Dong dong…! ’

Suddenly, a huge drum sound resounded throughout the world.

The Sui army changed their formation upon hearing the news.

The circular array turned into a huge cone-shaped array.

"Master, master, look, the Sui army has begun to break through."

Chen Ling suddenly exclaimed.

Regardless of his size, Xu Junming and Sun Shi also saw it.

A young general wearing black armor and carrying a large iron gun rushed straight towards the Wagang army formation, taking the lead and acting as an arrow.

Those who stand in his way are invincible, and Wagang's battle formation is quickly disintegrated by him.

Zhang Xutuo from the rear led the elite of the Chinese army to expand the gap he had opened.

Finally, a general wearing red copper armor and holding two black whips led the army to the rear.

The steel whip brought up bursts of strong wind when it was swung, making it impossible for anyone on the left or right to get close, demonstrating its great strength.

Xu Junming quickly calculated that the young general who was the pioneer was the famous Luo Shixin.

The general behind the palace is the door god of later generations, Qin Qiong and Qin Shubao, one of the twenty-four ministers of Lingyan Pavilion in the Tang Dynasty.

It can be seen that the Sui army is more well-trained. Although the Wagang army tried its best, the Sui army still broke the blockade and broke out of the siege.

But the Sui army was also human. The rear army, which was under tremendous pressure, gradually lost touch with the Chinese army under the powerful offensive of the Wagang army.

After the Sui army's front and middle armies escaped from their cages, the rear army was heavily besieged by Wagang and fell into siege again.

If the current Sui army is led by a general who looks like Bai Qi, then he leaves the rear army and leads the front army and the middle army to retreat. Although the rear army is lost, a large amount of effective strength is still preserved, and the army can be reorganized to fight again.

But Zhang Xutuo is not a calm and rational general who treats soldiers as chess pieces. On the contrary, he is rigorous in running the army, has proficient military skills, and pays more attention to love and justice.

When he saw that the rear army was surrounded and had already escaped, he led the Chinese army to fight back again without hesitation.

The intention was to take the entire army out.

What kind of general brings out what kind of soldiers? Most of the former troops who originally ran out rushed back under the leadership of Luo Shixin.

Li Mi was overjoyed when he saw it, and quickly ordered Wang Bodang to take his most elite Pushan Gongying to kill him.

Soon, the Sui army was once again heavily surrounded by the Wagang army.

There is a saying: once it is vigorous, it will weaken again, and three times it will be exhausted.

The Sui army, once again surrounded, lost hope of breaking out.

At this time, everyone understood that the destruction of the Sui army was determined.

However, the elite Sui army, although trapped in a tight siege, fought bravely under the leadership of their general. The Wagang army was so anxious that it was difficult to capture it.

Three days later, millions of Sui troops were still standing, but the Wagang army suffered nearly twice as many casualties.

Especially there are many elites among them.

Li Mi also felt distressed. Pushan Gongying was regarded as the elite of the Great Wall.

"Zhang Xutuo, Yang Guang is cruel and unkind and endangers the people. Do you still want to be loyal to such a foolish king?"

Li Mi's voice penetrated the fighting formation and echoed above the Sui army.

Zhang Xutuo, who was wearing black armor and holding a spear, his face trembling, looked at the exhausted army around him who were still fighting hard, and he could not bear it on his solemn face.

These are all the disciples who have been following Wang Bo since he wiped out Wang Bo.

Seeing that he was wavering, Li Mi quickly said: "Look at your soldiers. They also have wives and children at home, as well as old parents who need support. Do you have the heart to let them die with you for the sake of your loyalty?"

"This guy is really despicable." Sun Shi said angrily.

Xu Junming stared at Zhang Xutuo. Li Mi's method of attacking the heart was indeed despicable, but in a different place, he would choose the same method as Li Mi.

The one who wants to win must do everything possible to win, no matter what method he uses.

Zhang Xutuo's expression changed drastically.

"Commander, this is Li Mi's way of attacking the heart. You must not fall into the trap." Qin Qiong shouted anxiously.

As a general, he knew Zhang Xutuo's temperament very well.

He has a strong personality and is not afraid of power; he is brave and resourceful in battle and can be considerate of his soldiers; although he is cold and unreasonable on the surface, he values ​​love and justice.

If it weren't for the supervisor Zhao Yuanji, armed with the emperor Shang Fang's sword, who insisted on Zhang Xutuo quickly annihilating the Wagang army, they would not have been heavily surrounded and confined to death.

"Luo Shixin listens to the order. Your troops will be the vanguard and break out to the north."

"Qin Shubao listens to the order, your troops will be on the left wing to protect the army."

"Jia Wuben obeys the order. Your troops will be on the right wing to protect the central army."

"The whole army breaks through, and I will cut off the rear for you."

"Commander?"

"Military orders are like mountains, and those who don't obey will be killed with force."

Zhang Xutuo frowned angrily.

Qin Qiong and other trusted generals gritted their teeth and led the army to break through to the north.

Zhang Xutuo led his personal guard camp to stay behind.

"Hold them off."

Of course, Li Mi couldn't let this turtle in the urn escape.

Wang Bodang raised the giant bow in his hand and fired three arrows in a row, like three hundred-foot long rainbows, spanning thousands of feet, flying straight towards Qin Qiong, Luo Shixin and Jia Wuben.

"You dare."

A roar.

Three tyrannical spear lights shot up into the sky, and with a bang, the arrow branches were smashed into pieces.

Looking at the swarming Wagang army, the spear in Zhang Xutuo's hand glowed with divine light. In an instant, a 10,000-foot-long divine spear appeared in mid-air like a huge pillar.

The mighty gun light flashed with red divine light, and the powerful energy and blood were like the scorching sun in the sky.

Xie Yingdeng, one of the five tiger generals of Wagang who was leading the army in pursuit, changed his face and immediately roared: "Snake Formation."

The hundreds of thousands of troops under his command were glowing with divine light, and a large banner with the word 'thank you' behind him rose fiercely.

Within a moment, a huge red snake thousands of feet tall appeared in mid-air.

This giant snake coiled up into a snake formation, protecting hundreds of thousands of soldiers below.

At this moment, the ten-thousand-foot-long divine spear came down.

'boom! ’

Divine light bursts, clear sky and dry thunder.

The red giant snake was smashed to pieces, and thousands of masters were instantly shaken to pieces under the tyrannical force.

Countless people vomited blood and died. As the commander-in-chief, Xie Yingdeng, who was highly cultivated, also lost blood and was seriously injured.

The low-level general's attack shocked the scene instantly. The Wagang troops who were about to encircle them were overwhelmed by their momentum and stopped moving forward.

Zhang Xutuo took a breath, and the boiling blood in his body calmed down a little. He raised his spear upside down and looked coldly at the pursuing Wagang army with eyes as sharp as a knife.

Although there is only one person, it is better than thousands of troops.

Li Mi saw it and felt angry in his heart.

"All the troops obeyed the order and strangled Zhang Xutuo. Anyone who dared to retreat would be killed without mercy."

Angry voices echoed above the army.

Xu Shiji, Shan Xiongxin, Wang Junke, You Junda, Wang Bodang, Xie Yingdeng, Du Wenzhong, Shi Danai, Zhang Gongjin and others led the Wagang army and charged forward.

Zhang Xutuo led more than 10,000 soldiers around him, charging left and right.

The tens of thousands of feet of spears were invincible to those who blocked them, and they blocked more than half of Wagang's army.

Qin Qiong, Luo Shixin, and Jia Wuben waited for the Sui army to move forward crazily and gradually broke out of the encirclement.

"You will lead the army to leave as soon as possible, and I will stop the rear for you."

"Commander?!"

Qin Qiong and others saw that Zhang Xutuo was determined to die.

Knowing the importance, they gritted their teeth and waited for the Sui army to retreat towards the north.

Wagang's army chased them one after another, but they were all blocked by Zhang Xutuo.

Li Mi's face was livid, he allowed these elite Sui troops to escape today, but he didn't know how much it would cost to eradicate them in the future.

Seeing Zhang Xutuo under heavy siege, I felt even more hateful.

"This beast must be captured and killed."

Xu Shiji, Shan Xiongxin, Wang Junke and others led large armies to surround Zhang Xutuo.

Alone, they were no match for the latter, but with their military formation and the power of millions of Wagang's elite troops, they suppressed Zhang Xutuo, making it difficult for him to escape.

This battle lasted for nearly seven days.

Only then did Zhang Xutuo really run out of oil.

He alone killed nearly a million Wagang generals.

Wagang generals Qi Biao, Li Bao and Shang Huaizhong died in battle.

Looking at the numerous troops surrounding him, Zhang Xutuo, who had no strength left, smiled sadly.

"Your Majesty, Sui Dynasty, Zhang Xutuo is loyal to you."

Seeing the Wagang Army getting closer and closer, his vision went dark and his body fell backwards.

When he woke up again, a rocky roof came into view.

Subconsciously raising his hand, a familiar feeling came to his heart.

"I'm... not dead?!"

Looking around, he found that he was in a stone house, and he was lying on the only stone bed in the stone house, with tiger skin underneath him, but he didn't feel cold at all.

There was no furniture in the stone house, except for three stone futons placed not far away.

After looking into his body silently, most of his energy and blood had recovered.

However, my spirit has never been better, and the hidden wounds left in my body during my previous martial arts training have also disappeared.

I got up from the stone bed and was about to get off. There were footsteps outside.

Soon, a huge figure walked in.

"What a strong man."

The person who came was nearly ten feet tall, with broad shoulders and a round waist, with short hair on his head, thick eyebrows and big eyes, and a naive expression with a hint of childishness.

Seeing Zhang Xutuo sitting up, his eyes lit up.

"you're awake?"

He got out of bed, clasped his fists, and said respectfully: "May I ask my benefactor's name?"

Although he could not see this person's cultivation level, he must be someone with great supernatural powers who could rescue him from being surrounded by Wagang's army.

The tall man scratched his head.

"My name is Chen Ling, it was my master who saved you."

"May I ask where your respected master is? Zhang Xutuo wants to go in person to express his gratitude."

"You come with me."

"Excuse me."

Zhang Xutuo followed, and the two of them left the stone house and found themselves in a dense forest. Follow Chen Ling around the stone house and go backwards, only two or three hundred meters forward, before a cliff appears in front of him.

The green mountains in the distance, the red sun hanging high, and the blue sky for thousands of miles, are indeed a good scenery.

Sitting on the boulder on the edge of the cliff was a Taoist wearing a green Taoist robe, a green gourd hanging around his waist, and his hair tied with a gold ring on the back of his head.

Zhang Xutuo took two steps forward and bowed down before Chen Ling could speak.

"Zhang Xutuo thanks Taoist Master for saving his life."

"Jushi Zhang, this is my master." Chen Ling said quickly.

"Master?"

Xu Junming turned around and looked at the number one general in the late Sui Dynasty.

At the end of the war that day, when he was killed by Wagang's army, he originally intended to save him, but Sun Shi took action faster than him and saved Zhang Xutuo.
