Chapter 185 I'll Take You Home
Zhang Cheng rode his horse and rushed up, only to see that Lu Xiangsheng had a few more arrows on his body, a new knife wound between his left ribs, and a large piece of sackcloth on his left side was stained red with blood!

Chen Zhong and Liu Jinhai also rushed to catch up, protecting Zhang Cheng and Lu Xiangsheng. They gathered dozens of riders together and rushed northward with all their strength.

They were like a group of mad tigers, ramming around. The Qing cavalry didn't dare to get too close, but they didn't want to let them escape. The two sides were chasing each other on the vast battlefield.

"General, that looks like a rear post!"

Personal guard Lin Fangping pointed to a battle group in the front right and shouted loudly.

Zhang Cheng looked over there, and there were hundreds of Qing soldiers and Xuan Da sergeants fighting there again. He shouted loudly: "Kill over there, pull the brothers out, let's go together!"

He led the crowd to charge over there, the Qing army over there was mainly infantry, only thirty or so cavalry were riding and shooting to block the attack, Zhang Cheng charged heavily, and they dodged one after another.

Rushing into the battle group, it was Zhang Cheng's rear sentry soldiers. Zhang Cheng glanced aside and asked, "What's the matter?"

The second chief of the rear sentry, Wang Tieren, shouted with grief and indignation: "General, our chief sentinel has died in battle!"

Uncle died in battle, Lin Zhiyi died in battle, Chen An died in battle, and now Hu Dake, one of the four commanders under his command, is also killed in battle.

During this day, I saw too many generals around me die in battle, especially Zhang Yan. After all, we had been together for half a year, and Zhang Yan even took care of him like a relative.

And Hu Dake is also different from others, as one of his four chiefs, he is one of the few people he has had the most contact with during this period, but Zhang Cheng just nodded at this time, without a trace of sadness in his heart.

He shouted: "It doesn't matter, let's rush out first."

At this time, a throwing gun flew over and shot at Wang Tieren's horse. The horse under his crotch was frightened and rushed forward. Great.

Zhang Cheng and the others had no choice but to chase after them, but Wang Tieren fell down after running more than ten steps. Fortunately, Chen Zhong and other knights rushed up to protect him. leap on.

At the same time, Lu Xiangsheng also fell from his horse. Zhang Cheng was shocked and shouted: "Protect the governor, quickly..."

More than a hundred knights immediately dispersed into a circle, protecting Zhang Cheng, Lu Xiangsheng and others in the middle, and fought with the Qing soldiers on the periphery.

Zhang Cheng got off the horse and helped Lu Xiangsheng up, only to see that his chest was already covered with blood, which was blurry, and the sackcloth and filial piety clothes on his body were almost turning blood red.

He shouted loudly: "The governor...the governor..."

Lu Xiangsheng's breath was already weak, he forced himself to stand up, and said in a deep voice: "Kill, kill the Tartar..."

Zhang Cheng hurriedly supported Lu Xiangsheng to sit on Wuming Ji again, he was still holding the heavy iron sword firmly, and shouted: "Zhongchen, get on the horse, and kill the slaves with me..."

More than a hundred horsemen fought with the Qing soldiers, but the Qing soldiers gathered more and more, and it was difficult to escape for a while.

……

Chen Zheng's outpost was besieged by the Qing soldiers, and he couldn't get out for a while. When he saw Zhang Guangda rushing towards the left post, he hurriedly shouted: "Brothers, go to the northwest and join the left post!"

Soon they got together, and Zhang Guangda shouted in a hurry: "Chen Zheng, the general is surrounded to the north, Zhongzi is here to save him, you go over quickly..."

After he finished speaking, he led the knights in the whistle and rushed towards the northeast. Taking advantage of the time when the Qing soldiers were surrounding Zhang Guangda, Chen Zheng shouted: "Follow me..."

With less than [-] knights, they broke through the formation of the Qing soldiers and rushed to the north, leaving Zhang Guangda with less than [-] men, but was surrounded by the Qing soldiers.

……

On the other side, Wu Zhizhong and Zhang Guodong's soldiers and horses were together, and they only had less than [-] riders. They were rushing northward, looking for Zhang Cheng, Lu Xiangsheng and others.

From the left direction, there was a burst of shouting and killing, with a strong Xuanzhen accent inside, Wu Zhizhong shouted: "Mr. Zhang Qian, there seems to be a general and a governor over there, let's kill them!"

They fought hard for a while, and finally broke a bloody road, rushed into the battle group, but saw that the left sentry Zhang Guangda's department had less than a hundred people.

Zhang Guangda's face was bright red, even his eyes were blood red, he yelled: "Old Wu, the general is to the north, I can't get out, you go and save the general..."

Zhang Guodong rushed up, he flew, stabbed, smashed and hacked with a tiger gun, his movements were as smooth as flowing water, and he shouted loudly: "Don't talk nonsense, let's fight out together!"

Wu Zhizhong knew that the sergeants on the left sentry had been seriously downsized, so they must be a little weak at this moment, he shouted: "Huzi, follow me, let's save the general..."

Nearly a hundred knights on Zhang Guangda's left sentry had already reported that they must die, and only wanted to kill a few more Tartars, so as to die enough, and now they suddenly had the hope of life again.

They immediately cheered up, nearly [-] fine riders, like [-] tigers, broke through the siege of the Qing soldiers, and charged northward.

……

Zhang Cheng originally wanted to protect Lu Xiangsheng to break through to the north, break through the siege of the Qing army, and escape for his life across the Haoshui Bridge.

But after Lu Xiangsheng got on his horse again, he didn't know what was going on. He urged the horse and rushed south. He had no choice but to chase after him, yelling: "Chen Zhong, this way..."

The guards hurriedly turned their horses' heads to follow closely, and encountered a group of Qing cavalry, about 60 cavalry, when the distance between the two sides was more than [-] steps, the group of Qing cavalry ran away to both sides.

A group of knights from the Ming army galloped forward, and upon closer inspection, it was Chen Zheng's outpost with more than a hundred knights arriving in time.

At this time, Zhang Cheng had already chased to the side of Lu Xiangsheng's war horse. As soon as he stretched out his hand, he took Lu Xiangsheng's rein and shouted: "Minister, kill slaves this way!"

Facing Chen Zheng's outpost, after the two sides converged, they rushed to the west again. Zhang Cheng led Lu Xiangsheng's horse all the way, slowly turned north, and charged all the way towards Haoshui Bridge.

……

Zhang Cheng and Lu Xiangsheng led nearly 300 knights and charged towards the north towards the Haoshui Bridge. The Qing soldiers could not stop them and gave way one after another.

Suddenly, there were more than a hundred Qing soldiers charging forward on horseback. Their bodies were covered with fine blue armor and their tall blue helmets were shaking in the wind and snow.

He shouted and reminded: "Be careful, Ba Yala of Zhenglan Banner!"

At this time, a large number of Qing soldiers were chasing after Zhang Cheng and the others on foot, and to the east of them there were less than a hundred Qing cavalry in vests, approaching them.

After being reminded loudly by Zhang Cheng, everyone slowed down their horses and adjusted their formation. The most elite Baya cavalry in the Qing army were rushing across, so we had to pay attention.

Chen Zhong and Chen Zheng rode their horses on Zhang Cheng's left, Liu Jinhai and other guards were on Lu Xiangsheng's right, and the other knights lined up behind them.

The front hooves of the war horse pawed the somewhat muddy ground, snorting unceasingly, and the knights immediately panted heavily.

Zhang Cheng shouted in a deep voice: "Brothers, life and death are in this battle, Zhang Cheng is willing to live and die with everyone, kill the Tartars on the opposite side, rush out, I will take you home!"
