The devil is coming

Chapter 153
Call it exaggerated, and A Ming didn't bother to defend himself. Previously, he simply felt that it was a bit too easy for Zheng Fan to simply step down.
However, fortunately it was night, and fortunately the Qianguo cavalry was pressed for time, so they did not take the trouble to come over to see if the person was dead or to do a last-ditch attack.
In the eyes of the Qianguo cavalry, the two of them looked more like lazy guys who went home after drinking at night.
Another good thing is that since today they are here to transport the head, Zheng Fan and A Ming are both riding horses in the convoy.
There are actually many types of horses, and war horses are undoubtedly the most expensive consumables. To put it in colder words, the life of a war horse is much more valuable than the life of an ordinary Guizhou warrior.
Therefore, it doesn't matter if the horses that usually transport goods can pull goods and carry people, but if they want to use them to fight in battle, it is too much to think about.
Zheng Fan was really lucky today. He avoided two consecutive murderous attempts. Even the old cart horse riding home proved his identity.
If this man came out today riding a mighty war horse from Cuiliu Fort, he would definitely not be able to escape the eyes of these Qianguo cavalry.
"They went to Xinghua Village." A Ming said.
This move diverts misfortune to the east, and it is used very spiritually.
"I don't know if we can really fight." Zheng Fan teased and got on his horse again, "No matter what, let's go back quickly."
Ganren suddenly became more sophisticated. On the surface, the Ganguo cavalry might only have two or three hundred riders, but Zheng Fan felt that since the other party dared to ask where Cuiliu Fort was, there were at least a thousand more cavalry hidden behind his back. , and even more.
At the moment, it is natural to go back to the fortress to prepare for defense.
Of course, if this Qianguo cavalry could help him destroy Xinghua Village, Zheng Fan would be very happy to see it happen.
Paoze is Paoze, and they are all Yan Jun. They are indeed Yan Jun, but Zheng Fan doesn't have many thoughts about the overall situation.
"My lord, are you going back to the fort to mobilize troops?" A Ming asked.
"What kind of troops should we mobilize? Just let this Qianguo army make a fuss. This place is not far from our Cuiliu Fort. If they can help us pull out a few strongholds, I don't mind being a rag collector after dawn tomorrow." Yes, gather the broken troops together, mosquito legs are just meat, not meat."
A Ming smiled.
Zheng Fan also laughed, but he immediately whipped the horse's buttocks, and the horse's passion immediately burst out,
He spread his hooves and began to run as fast as he could.
"Go back quickly, don't get stuck asking for directions again!"
.........
The location of Xinghua Village is very good. It is located in the original countryside and there is a river behind the village.
Logically speaking, it is actually very unreasonable to build a military stronghold in this situation. From a defensive perspective, it is simply trapping oneself.
However, due to the pride of the Yan people, they did not care much about it. At the same time, the retreat of the Qian people since the war began also encouraged the Yan people's arrogance.
In fact, the most important point is that the three-sided troops of the Qian Kingdom have been inactive for a long time. Similarly, before the war started, the Yan Kingdom's Yinlang County border frontline defense system had long existed in name only.
When Zheng Fan led his army to take up his post, the first thing he had to do was to dig pits and pitch tents.
Therefore, when many general soldiers and their troops were later forced to build military strongholds from other counties, they were like children filling in their ducks. One came here and one came there, unevenly. How organized.
You know, there should be many military strongholds, many military leaders from all walks of life, and the momentum is huge;
For those who didn’t know, they thought it was bandit kings from all over the country gathered here for a martial arts conference.
Zhong Tianlang is the youngest son of Zhong Wendao. The old handsome man has always had a son, so he naturally attaches great importance to him. This inevitably makes Zhong Tianlang a little arrogant.
However, before the real battle, Zhong Tianlang will not be slack or careless in the slightest.
He took two personal soldiers and reached the vicinity of Xinghua Village first.
"This military stronghold..."
Zhong Tianlang had already inherited a lot of the Zhong family's military knowledge. Otherwise, no matter how much Zhong Wendao loved his youngest son, he would never have allowed him to lead the elite cavalry of the Western Army to cause mischief.
You must know that the Western Army and the Qian Army have a common problem. If there are few war horses, there will naturally be few cavalry. Every cavalryman is a treasure.
The Xinghua Village in front of us can be said to be quite... rough in terms of defensive properties.
In the eyes of the Western Army, this was simply an unbelievable thing.
The Western Army was initially established to deal with the invasion of the Northern Qiang from the northwest of the Qian Kingdom, and later also took on the task of dealing with the rebellion of the chieftains in the southwest.
These two opponents have one characteristic, that is, they come and go like the wind in their respective territories, and they are very good at harassing them.
Therefore, the construction of the Western Army's camp has its own heritage.
Now under the city of Mianzhou, 15 Western troops have set up four-sided camps, such as horse gates, chariot walls, trenches, arrow towers, etc., all of which have their own order and are in line with the distance and troop allocation of each camp. In the center Zhong Wendao dared to use this camp without fear of being trampled by 20 Yan State cavalry.
But in Zhong Tianlang's opinion, the Yan people's camp is really like a child playing house, which is extremely random.
Although the enemy's relaxation is a good thing for his own side, Zhong Tianlang actually doesn't feel too happy in his heart. Is the reason why the enemy is so relaxed because the previous pressure from his own side was too small?
take a deep breath,
So today it is up to him to tell these extremely arrogant Yan people,
big job,
There are also those who dare to go north!
There is no need to look any further, and there is no need to make too many plans. The opponent has too many loopholes, and this camp is simply a sieve.
Facing the sieve, you don't need to think too much at all, just crush it. This time when you go north, you will have a thousand cavalry in your own camp. In addition, you asked your uncles to support a thousand cavalry before setting off. Before that, my father allocated another thousand fine horses to him.
If three thousand cavalry can't even defeat this military stronghold, then Zhong Tianlang might as well find a piece of tofu and kill him!
Perhaps the people in this village never thought that one day, Qian Guo's army would dare to go north and penetrate deep here to charge them.
Zhong Tianlang shook his head,
whispered:
"Originally, I thought you were a nobody, but I didn't expect that you are nothing more than an arrogant barbarian. You really let me down, Zheng Fan."
.........
According to the rules of the Yan State Army, only the relatives of the chief military officer can fly their own flag, which is a common flag head with the last name.
Therefore, only the Dayan Black Dragon flag was hung on Xinghua Village, and no flag with the word "Deng" was hung.
There is a small wooden sign hanging at the entrance of Xinghua Village with the three characters "Xinghua Village" written on it. However, after months of wind and rain, it has long been blurred, and no one has gone to repaint it.
And when I come back during the day today,
Deng Ziliang went into his tent and never came out.
He didn't drink. Deng Ziliang didn't like drinking, which was an anomaly among the military.
However, Deng Ziliang himself did not drink, so he could not prevent his subordinates from drinking. The Jingnan Army had strict military discipline, but these military leaders did not have too many military discipline constraints.
Full of anger, Deng Ziliang sat in front of the charcoal pot with a military book and read it. Perhaps because he knew that his general would be angry when he came back today, the soldiers in Xinghua Village received water and wine. , they deliberately moved a little further away from the big tent before drinking, and they didn't dare to make as much noise as usual.
There is wine, but the amount allocated to each person is not enough to make them drunk. It is just as much as they want. It is meat, so they can eat it freely.
This is the tradition of Xinghua Village. The day after every victory is a day of joy for the whole army.
The way to run an army lies here. You have to be kind to the soldiers below. Only then will the soldiers be willing to die for you on the battlefield.
The Book of War, seeing it now, I can’t stand it anymore.
Deng Ziliang threw aside the military book in his hand and reached out to rub his eyebrows.
At this time, the big tent was opened and a big man walked in.
"Young Master, is there something on your mind?"
Being able to call him Young Master Deng Ziliang proves that this big man also comes from the Deng family and is a member of the family.
Deng Ziliang shook his head. He was too lazy to repeat what happened in the General Military Mansion during the day, but he planned to write a letter tonight to convey the incident home.
How to deal with it depends on the family.
"Go down and have a moderate banquet."
"Don't worry, young master. I have already inspected it before, and these brats know what they are doing."
"Ah."
Deng Ziliang nodded and reached for the tea cup he had placed beside him, but suddenly found that the water in the cup was rippled.
following,
There are also the roars of trampling by horse hooves!
Deng Ziliang stood up immediately,
Although Zheng Fan does not think that there is any life-long enemy,
But at this moment, Deng Ziliang's reaction was exactly the same as that of Zheng Fan who was asked for directions:
"He, how dare he!"
Deng Ziliang's first reaction was: Isn't it really Zheng Fan that stupid guy?
The big man opened the tent at this time and saw that on the east side of the camp, dozens of knights had thrown out their hooks and got stuck on the fence, and then began to accelerate to both sides.
The fence, which was not very deep, was pulled down directly.
Immediately afterwards, the cavalry in the rear rushed in without slowing down at all!
In the military stronghold, there was a moment of panic.
"Young Master, enemy attack!"
Deng Ziliang had already pushed him away. He didn't take off his armor and just came out with his bow.
next moment,
He stretched his bow and nocked an arrow, and shot out an arrow. In front of him, a Qianguo knight was shot directly in the face and fell off his horse.
Deng Ziliang showed no sign of joy and shouted directly to the big man beside him:
"Give me the order and let each unit break out on their own!"
Deng Ziliang did not order the troops to be gathered, and it was impossible to gather any more troops at this time. In a night attack, once the opponent gets the upper hand, it is often difficult for the attacked party to gather its troops. It is better to just go out and fight on their own. .
The battle of cavalry is not about the gains and losses of one city or one place. As long as you can gather your troops and horses again, you can still fight back!
At this moment, a cavalryman rushed out from behind the tent and stabbed Deng Ziliang directly with his long sword.
Deng Ziliang took two steps back and dodged the quick blow. Then, he quickly drew his bow and aimed an arrow at the knight's back.
The arrow was infused with energy and blood, and the force was extremely terrifying. It penetrated directly through the opponent's armor, and the knight fell off his horse.
Deng Ziliang stepped forward quickly, glanced at the armor on the other party, and frowned slightly.
It’s not the armor of the Yan army,
This is……
Damn the countrymen!
"Ha ha!"
These people from the Qian Kingdom actually dare to go north?
And he even sneaked it to his own door?
Anger arose in Deng Zi's conscience. He originally thought that it was Zheng Fan from Cuiliu Fort who sent troops to attack him at night. It seemed that it was not surprising at all that the guy who dared to depose even the prince would actually do such a thing.
But it wasn't him.
Deng Ziliang once again drew his bow and arrows, and shot three Qianguo knights in succession. The area near their tent was empty for a moment. However, just when Deng Ziliang was about to lead his horse to gather his men elsewhere in the military stronghold, suddenly there were more than ten more knights. The cavalry rushes in to kill.
This Qianguo cavalry is not simple!
When attacking at night, it is not only the party being attacked that is panicked, but also the attacking party. He is now shooting and killing Qianqi continuously near the tent. It stands to reason that other Qianqi nearby cannot be unaware of it. Ordinary soldiers encounter such a situation. In this situation, plus it's dark night, I probably won't dare to get closer to here.
Dark night is the best protective color for cowards.
However, these dry knights just rushed over again.
The ten cavalrymen charged together. Even though Deng Ziliang thought highly of himself, he did not dare to stand there stupidly and take the charge. He had to turn around and run backwards, and got into his own tent before the long spear of the Qianqiu came over. .
More than ten knights did not rush in, but each threw the torch in his hand towards the tent.
"Whizzing!"
Unexpectedly, just as he was waiting for the fire to start, two more arrows were shot out from the tent, hitting two dry riders.
The remaining cavalry did not dare to wait any longer, and directly forced their horses to rush into the military tent.
"boom!"
The big tent collapsed directly.
Deng Ziliang, who had replaced his hard bow with a long knife, rushed forward, like a dragon out of the sea, directly onto the horseback of a dry rider, cutting the edge of the knife downwards, slicing into the opponent's neck, and then pushed him off the horse with a push from his palm. back.
Kill people and seize horses, all in one go.
However, before Deng Ziliang could move his horse again, two sabers struck directly at him. Deng Ziliang lay down on his back, barely dodging the two sabers. At the same time, the back of the saber in his hand whipped the horse's buttocks and crotch. The war horse felt pain and rushed forward.
Deng Ziliang stood up again, holding the knife in his right hand and the reins in his left hand.
The rest of the gang rode on horseback and chased after him. Whether it was the red armor on Deng Ziliang's body or the martial arts he had shown earlier, they were all told that this was a big fish!
It is very possible that this is the person their general wants to kill when he goes north this time!
The Qianqi behind him were chasing and biting so fiercely that Deng Ziliang had no time to summon his men, and there were actually Qianqi everywhere in the military camp.
You bastards, what kind of medicine did these gangsters take? They actually dared to lay such a large amount of blood in a sneak attack!
A group of cavalry suddenly appeared in front, led by a captain under Deng Ziliang's command.
The two sides immediately staggered, and the cavalry directly helped Deng Ziliang block the Qianqi chasing behind him.
Deng Ziliang was able to take a breath and began to look around the military stronghold. However, before Deng Ziliang could clearly see the form and issue the order, a silver-armored general suddenly rushed out of the military stronghold in front.
This is a night attack, this is chaos. It is not surprising to rush out enemies from anywhere or encounter friendly forces.
Deng Ziliang did not hesitate at all, and did not even intend to catch the silver-armored general's spear. Instead, he rode forward while shouting:
"withdraw!"
The situation is irreversible. At this time, it is natural to withdraw as many soldiers and horses as possible. If the soldiers and horses are scattered, they can regroup tomorrow. If they are defeated, there will be nothing!
The Yan people are fierce, and their horsemanship skills are indeed top-notch. But the problem is that the military chiefs, including Deng Ziliang, are actually more like warlords.
They care more about how to preserve and develop their own strength, rather than using the lives of their subordinates for meaningless consumption.
If the Zhenbei Army or the Jingnan Army were stationed here at this moment, this situation would definitely not happen.
In fact, before Deng Ziliang gave the order to retreat, many of Deng Ziliang's knights had already grabbed their horses and started rushing out in the face of this night attack.
Of course, many others were killed by the Qianqi who rushed in before they had time to find their horses or even put on their armor.
When Zhong Tianlang saw that the red-armored general completely ignored him and even took the initiative to gallop outside the camp, he felt angry and laughed at the same time.
This Zheng Fan,
Isn’t that enough courage?
Zhong Tianlang had no intention of letting "Zheng Fan" go and continued to chase after him.
The one under his crotch was originally the Northern Qiang divine horse, and Deng Ziliang was just a war horse that he had just snatched. Therefore, after the two generals rushed out of the camp, during the short chase, the distance between the two sides had quickly narrowed!
Suddenly, a team of horsemen rushed out of the woods ahead!
Deng Ziliang was immediately shocked.
This Ganren commander actually arranged an ambush on the west side. Previously, the Ganren soldiers launched a camp-breaking charge from the east side. Most of the Yan cavalry who wanted to escape naturally went to the west side, which happened to fall into It's someone's pocket!
Deng Ziliang immediately reined in the reins, spurred the horse, and turned around.
The silver-armored general behind him had already charged towards him, with his spear in hand, as if he had transformed into a dragon.
Deng Ziliang waved his saber, but who would have expected that the opponent's spear contained extremely fierce power.
"Bang!"
Deng Ziliang was in severe pain from the tiger's mouth, but he still held the handle of the knife tightly, but the upper part of the saber broke directly.
Damn!
The spear was as powerful as a broken bamboo and stabbed him,
Deng Ziliang leaned forward and managed to avoid the spear's stab. However, the silver-armored general flicked his wrist and the spear suddenly struck him horizontally!
"boom!"
Deng Ziliang was drawn and was knocked off his horse.
At this moment, Qianqi from all directions swarmed in and surrounded him.
This is to catch yourself alive!
The battle can be lost!
But as a descendant of the Sanshi Deng family, how could he tolerate being captured alive and bringing shame to the family?
At that moment, the broken knife in his hand was placed across the front of his neck, and he shouted:
"Gangou, when my Dayan cavalry really goes south, I'll wait for you to come down and accompany me!"
finished speaking,
The broken knife cut into his neck, and blood spurted out.
The surrounding knights retreated from the gap, and the silver-armored general rode closer.
At this time, Deng Ziliang glared at him. He could feel that his blood was flowing out and his vitality was disappearing.
He is unwilling, he hates it,
His life has actually just begun!
He caught up with this national war, just when troubled times were rising with the east wind, but he had to commit suicide here!
The silver-armored general took off his helmet, revealing a face that seemed to have not completely lost its childishness. He looked at Deng Ziliang, who was about to commit suicide.
He opened his mouth and said:
"This does not disappoint me too much. You are still a bit bloody after all, Zheng Fan."
"..." Deng Ziliang! ! !
