Three Kingdoms Eschatology

When Zhao Song arrived at the city of Nanzheng, he couldn't help but burst into tears, and his heart was full of energy and blood.It turned out that the bloody head of Su Gu was hanging on the top of the city.

Two hours ago, Su Gu felt more and more uneasy when he saw that Zhao Song had not returned for a long time.He thought that instead of waiting here, it would be better to sneak out of the city by himself when the Yizhou army was not well guarded.So he ordered one of the only two guards around him to go out and inquire about the situation of the Yizhou Army to see if there was any possibility of sneaking out of Nanzheng City.

As a result, the guard who went out to inquire about the situation was found suspicious by Yizhou soldiers and arrested on the spot.Under torture and looting, the guards confessed Su Gu's hiding place.Su Gu was immediately arrested, and Zhang Xiu ordered Su Gu to be killed without hesitation.

……

At the gate of Zhang Xiu's barracks at the north gate of Nanzheng City.Two ghost soldiers on duty stopped one of them from entering the barracks: "Stop, what are you doing? What do you want to do in the barracks?"

The man raised his head wearing a tattered bamboo hat, and said calmly: "I am a refugee from Guanzhong, and I am here to join my master."

Since Wu Dou Mi Dao re-entered Hanzhong, notices to recruit believers were distributed everywhere.In addition, special or temporary recruitment sites were set up in Yamen barracks and other places.It is not surprising that people come to vote one after another.

The two ghost soldiers nodded and said, "Do you know the rules of becoming a disciple of this Dao?"

The man replied: "I know. There are three major conditions, one of which will allow the whole family to become disciples of the Heavenly Master. One is to hand in five buckets of rice to the public treasury. The other is that a strong man is willing to act as a ghost guard to guard the way." The third is that young women with special qualifications can become celestial masters or female disciples who offer wine without paying five buckets of rice."

A ghost soldier laughed and said: "It seems that you still know a lot about this way. Seeing that you are penniless, you must have come to join our army as a ghost soldier."

"Exactly as this brother said, a certain person came to join the army as a pawn."

"Well, I see that your body is qualified. Go in. After entering the gate of the camp, you will meet the first tent. Turn left and walk fifteen battles. That's the place to sign up."

"Thank you, brother." Douli Ke raised his leg and walked towards the barracks.It's just that he didn't turn left when he came across the first tent, but went straight to the rather special tent in the middle of the camp with flags and flags everywhere.People with common sense in the military know that this tent should be a large tent of the Chinese army.

This bamboo hat bearer was Zhao Song, who went into the enemy camp alone to avenge his lord.

He was still fifty battles away from the big tent, and he was stopped by two people: "Are you here to sign up or a newcomer? You went to the wrong place...".The interrogator was already spitting blood at this point, and the dagger held tightly by Zhao Song's right hand had pierced his stomach.

Under the sudden change, the ghost pawn next to him was naturally taken aback for a moment.By this time, Zhao Song's dagger had already been pulled out, slicing across his throat.A blood arrow spewed out from his neck, when he fell down clutching his neck.Zhao Song picked up the spear he had dropped to the ground.

Zhao Song didn't yell or yell, and continued to move towards the big tent of the Chinese army without a sound.It's just that he stabs anyone he sees, and stabs them whenever he sees them, in case they see the dead body and scream.More than ten ghost soldiers have been killed on the road of more than thirty battles.

It's not because of how good his martial arts are, but because the ghost pawns who were killed were completely caught off guard. They all thought he was a new pawn who had just joined the gang and had not had time to change clothes after being distributed with weapons.It never occurred to him that he dared to stab and kill indiscriminately in this big camp alone.This made him succeed frequently.

Until Zhao Song was questioned by a group of five ghost soldiers, and after killing three of them quickly, the other two started screaming as they ran.Someone behind also discovered the corpse of the ghost soldier who had been killed before, and shouted loudly one after another.

At this time, Zhao Song had walked twenty paces away from Zhang Xiu's tent of the Chinese army.He ran quickly, but was stopped by Zhang Xiu's personal guards when he was five steps away from the tent.

Zhao Song stabbed with a spear, but was pushed away with a steel knife by the opponent, and his spear was snatched away immediately.Zhang Xiu's personal guards are composed of Vajra Warriors, which are not comparable to ordinary ghost soldiers.

But at this moment, Zhao Song seemed to be crazy, and he rushed forward without hesitating his life, holding the dagger in his hand again, and stabbing the vajra warrior who had snatched his spear into the chest.

This vajra warrior thought that he would be able to subdue Zhao Song immediately by capturing Zhao Song's spear, but he didn't expect that the opponent would attack and kill Zhao Song desperately.I freed up another hand to hold the spear, so Zhao Song succeeded with one blow.He stared wide-eyed, not believing that he died so easily.

The vajra fighters around shouted in unison, each with their weapons ready to chop Zhao Song into meat paste, but they heard a shout: "Wait a minute, catch the assassin alive, don't kill him." The person who shouted just came out of the tent His master Zhang Xiu.At this moment, Zhang Xiu suspects that the forces behind Zhao Song are not simple.So he wants to catch the living and ask what happened.

Hearing this, the Vajra Warrior immediately withdrew his weapon and swung his teeth and claws to capture Zhao Song alive.Zhao Song took the opportunity to assassinate another strongman, and finally his arms were cut back, and the dagger was handed over.Then the warriors bound him tightly.

Chapter 091

There is no need for torture by Zhang Xiu's people.Zhao Song laughed wildly and reported his family name: "I am Zhao Song, the head of Hanzhong, and I came here this time to kill you, a crooked thief leader, and to avenge my master Su Gu. It's a pity, it's a pity that only One step! I can take your monster head!"

Zhang Xiu was relieved when he heard this, and the worry he had hidden in his heart dissipated a lot.But he still had doubts.

A civil servant who served as the head book was able to avenge the lord, broke into the enemy camp alone, and killed more than a dozen soldiers in a row, including two vajra warriors.No one will easily believe this to anyone who hears it!So Zhang Xiu ordered several cronies to go and check.

This matter was easily confirmed, and the cronies immediately found some servants who had worked in the government office of Hanzhong.They recognized Zhao Song at a glance.Only then did Zhang Xiu feel relieved, he sneered and said:

"I caught Su Gu this morning. I was supposed to cook him alive and sacrifice him to the heavens, so as to establish the power of our heavenly army and suppress the evil spirits of ghosts and ghosts. But the old man was a little impatient because of his resentment. Let Su Gu be killed so quickly. Beheaded, it’s cheap for him. Since you’re here, let’s use you instead!”

Zhao Song spit out a mouthful of phlegm and said, "You are a bloodthirsty generation, and you are worthy of asking for immortals!"

Zhang Xiu didn't pay attention to him anymore, he waved his hand as a gesture and asked Zhao Song to be detained.Then he gave instructions to his left and right: "Notify the people of Nanzheng City that they will gather in the city tomorrow morning to watch the ceremony of cooking demons and sacrificing to heaven."

A leader quickly reminded Zhang Xiudao: "Report to Master, there is no such a large open space in Nanzheng City, which cannot hold the entire city's people."

Zhang Xiu replied: "Then let them come out and watch from the open space outside the East City Gate."

At this moment, one of Zhang Xiu's personal guards came to report: "Report to Master. Zhitou Dajiu Zhang Lu begs to see you!"

Zhang Xiu said calmly, "Let him in." Then he added: "Zhang Lu is not only one of my Daozhi head's great sacrificial wines, he is also the head disciple of my lord, so he doesn't have to do this when he wants to see me in the future. Notification, you can visit the room directly."

When the left and right made promises, Zhang Lu had already entered the account.

He respectfully gave Zhang Xiu a Taoist master-student gift, and said in his mouth: "I have seen the master.".Waiting for Zhang Xiu's response: "Disciples are exempt from courtesy."Only then did Zhang Lu get up.

Zhang Xiu continued to ask, "Disciple, why are you looking for a teacher?"

Zhang Lu continued to reply respectfully: "The disciple came here to report to the master. About a month ago, I knew that a priest led an army to rob a team of horse dealers on the Hanzhong Plain. I don't know if the master knows this. thing?"

Zhang Xiu nodded and said, "I know about this matter. This cavalry team colluded with the monster Su Gu, so it is not an exaggeration to confiscate their horses with the sacrificial wine. Besides, our army really needs horses urgently."

"But this cavalry team is dedicated to purchasing horses for the Zhuyang Hou Kingdom. We will offend Zhuyang Hou Feng Yu by doing this. It will cause unnecessary trouble. I wonder if Master understands this situation?" Zhang Lu continued to be cautious. Said.

When Zhang Lu led his troops from Chengdu, they left Jiange and entered Hanzhong.Liu Yan confessed to him not to make other enemies during the attack on Hanzhong.That is, don't provoke Feng Yu in the east, Dong Zhuo in the north, or Ma Teng and Han Sui in the northwest.But today Zhang Lu knew that Zhang Xiu's subordinates had robbed Feng Yu's cavalry.So I came here to ask Zhang Xiu what happened.

The old god Zhang Xiu smiled and said: "Of course I know about this. A certain disciple will not hide anything from me. Feng Yu is also a monster. Sooner or later we will take back the three counties in the middle of the Han Dynasty he occupied. And Why be afraid of offending him now."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Lu quickly said: "It turns out that the master already knew about it, but I was just afraid that the master would be concealed, so I came here to report this matter. In this way, the disciple will leave first."

"Wait a minute, this disciple needs to come to the East City Gate tomorrow morning. Watch the ceremony of cooking the demon to sacrifice to heaven."

"I would like to obey Master's order!" Zhang Lu replied respectfully before turning around and exiting the big tent.After turning around, two cold lights full of killing intent flashed in his eyes.

At this time, neither Zhang Xiu nor Zhang Lu could have dreamed that Feng Yu was less than fifty miles away from Nanzheng.

……

A few days ago, Chen Tiao arrived in Zhuyang, but at that time Feng Yu had just left Zhuyang and went to Xicheng.Chen Tiao quickly turned around and rushed back to Xicheng, only then saw Feng Yu and handed Su Gu's letter to him.That's why he was delayed for a few days.

Feng Yu met Chen Diao in the Xicheng government office.After reading the letter, Feng Yu, who was sitting at the head, looked coldly at this young man who was full of knight-errant aura and was in a hurry.

The friendliness value of Chen U-turn is 50.So it is impossible for him to deceive himself with tricks.And it is impossible for anyone to predict what Feng Yu will decide on this.

"Nanzheng was besieged, how did you get out of the city?" Feng Yu asked.

"Although several city gates of Nanzheng were blocked, there were bandits patrolling and guarding outside the city. However, the circumference of Nanzheng City is tens of miles, and it is impossible to watch everywhere. A small group of sporadic people can still sneak over the city wall. I just used ropes to steal out of town."

"Then after returning to Nanzheng, can you still go in?"

"Of course, I have an agreement with the defenders. They will put down the hanging basket."

"Okay. I want to go to Nanzheng with you, and I want to meet the prefect of Su Gu in person."

Hearing Feng Yu's words, Chen Tiao's eyes nearly fell out of shock.

Feng Yu went on to say: "I don't want to enter the city, but I want you to pick up Su Taishou, so I can meet him outside the city. Because it will take seven or eight days for our Zhuyang Army to complete the preparations for the Western Expedition. Time, Nanzheng City can't hold it. So after you pick up Prefect Su, he doesn't have to go back to the city anymore."

Feng Yu took Dian Qing and his personal scouting guards, and together with Chen Tiao took a Viking ship, went up the Mian River, and entered the Hanzhong Plain from east to west.Zhang Xiu and Zhang Lu's troops entered the Hanzhong Plain from the Shu Road in the west, so they are unlikely to encounter Zhang Xiu and Zhang Lu's troops.

They abandoned the boat and landed in Chenggu, and the group quietly headed towards Nanzheng.When approaching Nanzheng City, the front scouts found out bad news that Nanzheng had fallen.

Suddenly at a loss, Chen Tiao had no choice but to take Feng Yu back to Chenjiazhai first, and then make plans.Then he received a letter from Zhao Song.

Chen Tiao immediately sent his servants to chase after Zhao Song, but then the servants brought back bad news.Su Gu was killed, Zhao Song was arrested for revenge for breaking into the enemy camp alone, and will be cooked in public tomorrow.

……

Mopanshan Chenjiazhai, in the lobby.

"Chen Tiao, are you sure you really want to do this?" Feng Yu asked.

Chen Tiao replied confidently: "Yes. I must do this. Rescue Zhao Song, and then avenge my lord Su Gu. This is the duty that I must do."

"In that case, I will accompany you there." Feng Yu replied.

"Junhou, this risk is too great for you." Chen Tiao looked at Feng Yu in surprise and said.

Feng Yu was also surprised, what kind of charisma Su Gu possessed, could make Zhao Song and Chen Tiao go through fire and water for him, and go through fire and water for him.It's just that Su Gu is dead, so he doesn't have this chance to find out.Feng Yu only knew that Zhao Song and Chen Diao must be loyal and courageous people, and he intended to win them over.

A task panel was picked out in Feng Yu's sight:

[Mission: Rescue, mission content: Rescue the righteous man Zhao Song who is about to be brutally cooked.Mission rewards: general surrender card (green) x2, falcon training facility building card x1]

Chapter 092 Raid

In the Chen family's village on Mopan Mountain, more than a hundred men in black had already gathered on an open space used as a martial arts training ground.They are all followers of Chen Tiao.

The door-to-door system emerged during the Warring States Period.By the time of the Eastern Han Dynasty, it had already declined, and only a chivalrous tycoon like Chen Tiao would spare no expense to receive and take in followers from all corners of the country.

Diners usually support the master, but at critical moments, they will naturally go through fire and water for the master, and their hearts are devastated.This is the principle of being a doorman.

While Chen Tiao gave them an impassioned mobilization, Feng Yu who was beside him carefully looked at these diners.As expected, Ranger's powerful followers are still Ranger.Feng Yu could tell at a glance that the hundred or so people in black had some skills, and they were not low.

After Chen Tiao finished speaking, Feng Yu asked, "Are they equipped with armor?"

Chen Tiaohui said: "There was no such thing as a report to the princes, because the county does not allow private possession of military armor. But now there are, Su Taishou temporarily dispatched more than a hundred sets of Zhajia before Nanzheng was besieged. Of course They are not as fine as the armor of the royal guards."

When he said this, the servants of the Chen family village had already brought in a large number of armors, and these servants and knight-errants began to wear them.

……

In the early morning, there is no sun, and there are still a few drizzles in the sky.

Outside the east gate of Nanzheng City, a large crowd had already gathered, surrounding an open space.The open space is surrounded on three sides by ordinary people in Nanzheng City, and on one side is ghost soldiers from Wudou Midao.In the middle of the pawn formation, a small wooden platform half the height of the battle was set up facing the open space.

In the center of the clearing stood a bronze cauldron, and at the bottom of it a pyre was blazing.In the cauldron licked by the tongue of fire, the white soup was boiling and the mist was steaming.

Suddenly, several horns sounded. This was obviously not the sound of military horns, but similar to the horns used by wizards in the Bashu area.Several ghost soldiers brought Zhao Song, who was shirtless and tied like a rice dumpling, to the open space.

The people around stretched their necks, thinking that the ghost soldier was about to throw Zhao Song into the cauldron to cook.Unexpectedly, with the sound of silk, bamboo and copper dialing, a person holding a mahogany sword and wearing Taoist robes walked up the wooden platform.He is a sacrificial wine under Zhang Xiu's subordinates, and he came here to do it under Zhang Xiu's order.

In the eyes of everyone, he danced and danced, chanting words: "The Taishang Laojun taught me to kill ghosts, and my gods. He called the jade girl, and it was auspicious. Climbing rocks and wearing a seal. Wearing a canopy, walking quietly , Left Fu Liujia, Right Wei Liuding... Urgently, like a law!"

When the Taoist chanted this, he pointed the mahogany sword forward, and then turned his eyes white, and the whole person suddenly stood in the middle of the stage, like a sculpture.Everyone took a look - this is really possessed by a god!

Unexpectedly, everyone had just thought of this.The Taoist priest was like a wooden stake, straight forward and fell down.Everyone was baffled, what method was this done?

After they watched intently, they found an arrow stuck in the back of the Taoist priest's head!Very long arrow!This arrow was shot by Dian Qing with a longbow.

There was a commotion in the crowd immediately, but the ghost soldiers nearby turned pale with shock.The astute person had already realized what was going on, and shouted: "Enemy attack! There is an enemy attack..."

Before they finished speaking, a hundred random arrows were thrown from behind the ghost army formation.Dense arrays, dense arrows, and the armor of the ghost soldier is just a armored bellyband, and the back is not covered by armor.The final effect is that a large group of people fell down.

The ghost soldiers who survived the sharp arrows have heard the sound of the galloping horses.When they turned around and looked back, there were indeed more than a hundred warriors attacking them like a whirlwind, and they could clearly see that they were still bending their bows and nodding their arrows.

In the grass next to these warriors, there were twenty or thirty black shadows running fast, but they couldn't make out what they were after a quick glance.

Another round of arrows struck.This time the ghost soldiers had already seen clearly what those black shadows were pounced upon.It turned out to be a ferocious mountain dog.In the blink of an eye, more than 20 mountain dogs bit their targets tightly, and the mournful wailing sounded continuously.

The random arrows, vicious dogs, and the lightning-like surprise attack made the ghost soldiers who were caught off guard into chaos, and everyone of them was running to avoid, even the generals were no exception.The entire army formation has long been out of formation.

Feng Yu's personal scouts urged the war cavalry, brandishing the first steel knife, and charged into the enemy's formation.Feng Yu also rode his horse and charged into it.Amidst the blades of light, the corpses of ghost soldiers fell layer by layer like fallen crops.In the bloody wind, from time to time, human heads and severed limbs could be seen flying down.

In addition to this, there were [-] rangers from Chenjiazhai who each raised their weapons and rushed forward. They only picked ghosts with higher ranks and killed them.

In just a dozen breaths, the army of ghost soldiers was completely pierced and dispersed.Those ghost soldiers who were guarding Zhao Song either scattered and fled, or died immediately.On the other three sides, the Nanzheng civilians who were onlookers dispersed early on, and ran towards the city one after another.

Zhang Lu had already retreated into the city surrounded by his personal guards, and he turned his head to watch from time to time.

"Quick! Go and report to the master, let him mobilize a large army to encircle and suppress the incoming enemy..." A ghost general urged his subordinates to say, before he finished speaking, the blade of a sharp sword pierced through his chest out.

Over there, Feng Yu's personal soldiers had lifted Zhao Song onto the saddle and galloped out.Seeing that the goal had been achieved, Feng Yu whistled and withdrew with his personal guards.This whistle is only for rangers.The rangers immediately rushed out, and parked their mounts more than a hundred battles away...

From beginning to end, the entire rescue process took only half a quarter of an hour.

Wait for the opponent to withdraw.There was chaos, and the ghost soldiers who had scattered in all directions regrouped, and they were still in shock.A general had already shouted angrily: "Quick, hurry up and inform the master, and send cavalry to pursue!"

In fact, someone had already run to the barracks to report the emergency.It's just that Zhang Xiu's barracks is also facing a crazy attack from a group of "desperadoes", and no one pays attention to the matter at the East Gate.

Chen Tiao and seventy rangers rushed into Zhang Xiu's camp with their swords.Having learned the lesson from last time, Zhang Xiu has already stepped up his guard.They rushed into the gate of the barracks for more than [-] battles, but they were stopped by ghost soldiers swarming over.

Chen Tiao and others fought indiscriminately with the ghost soldiers who rushed over.After a moment of confusion, the ghost soldiers finally realized that it was difficult for them to be opponents of these rangers in this kind of melee.So under the command of the generals, they gradually organized an army formation.Waves of guns and knives rushed towards Chen Tiao and others...

Chen Tiao held the blade in both hands, one long and the other short, slashing left and right, his chest was already covered in blood.When he pulled the dagger in his left hand from the neck of a ghost soldier, there were no more than seventy rangers left.He estimated that the time was almost up, and shouted loudly: "Withdraw!"

The remaining [-] rangers guarded him and quickly withdrew to the gate of the barracks.When Chen Tiao ran back to his mount hidden in the woods outside the barracks, there were only three or four people around him...

Half an hour later, a large group of ghost cavalry chased in the direction where Feng Yu and others were evacuating.However, they found nothing, and Feng Yu, Chen Tiao and others had disappeared without a trace.

They just found fifty corpses in the field five miles away from Nanzheng City.These corpses lay in disorder in the grass.They are Zhang Xiu's peripheral patrol team.

Chapter 093

In the first year of Chuping, early autumn.

The Hanzhong Plain is golden.In the outskirts of Chenggu, a small group of people came, only about a hundred or ten people.The leaders in front of the team were Feng Yu, Dian Qing, Zhao Song and Chen Diao.

At this time, Feng Yu had cast the two green cards he had just obtained for surrendering generals, and transferred Zhao Song and Chen as his generals.

Although these two people are only two-star generals, and they are not well-known in the official history or in the Chinese literature.But Feng Yu felt as comfortable as receiving two four-star purple generals.In Feng Yu's eyes, their loyalty and courage are far more precious than superb martial arts and outstanding wisdom.
