Chapter 289 Beware of Fraud
Gu Zheng's clamoring words spread throughout the Northern Jiang army, and it was also aroused their fighting spirit.
"General, we must win this battle, otherwise, it will chill the hearts of these living soldiers. Although people die like lights, if we can't even keep their bodies, how can we convince them that we can keep them? Keep Bei Jiang?"
The newly promoted deputy general Li Zhun said from the side.
Standing on the tower, He Qixiong looked at Gu Zheng who was laughing below, with a flash of cruelty in his eyes, "Fight!"
The war started like this. He Qixiong had lost a battle and lost a lieutenant before. He gritted his teeth with hatred for Gu Zheng, and swung his long knife to attack him.
Gu Zheng blocked two moves with his long spear, and then drove his horse towards the other direction.
"My surname is Gu, you run away if you can't win. What kind of skill is it? Today I will take your head and avenge my soldiers!" He Qixiong galloped after him.
His mind was all on Gu Zheng, so he didn't notice that besides him, the other Northern Jiang troops were also gradually attracted by the Yan family's army.
Soon, they came to the Tanzhang Valley area.
The terrain here is dangerous, with cliffs on three sides, only one side leads to a dense forest, but because of the dense miasma floating in the forest all year round, few people enter.
"General, why do I feel that Gu Zheng deliberately attracted us here?" Li Zhun drove his horse to He Qixiong's side.
He Qixiong looked around, then looked at Gu Zheng and the other Yan family soldiers who had already stopped in front, narrowed his eyes slightly, "Whether he did it on purpose or not, we have no way out at this time, so we might as well fight to the death, we are here all year round, familiar The terrain here has an advantage over Gu Zheng, he is one of Yan Jinyu's fierce generals, if he dies, it may have a big impact on Yan Jinyu and even the entire Yan family army."
Gu Zheng gestured to the people around him, and he laughed out loud when he watched his soldiers quietly surround Bei Jiang's army and cut off their escape route.
"He Qixiong, I have heard for a long time that you are the number one expert in Beijiang. Why don't you and I have a competition today. It is a pity for heroes and we value heroes. It is not in vain for you and me to meet each other on the battlefield."
"General, beware of fraud." Li Zhun quickly reminded.
He Qixiong nodded, and whispered in Li Zhun's ear: "For a while, I will try my best to hold Gu Zheng back. You take this opportunity to lead people to break through. After you lead the troops out, the road in the future will be blocked and the Yan family's army will be completely trapped here."
"Then what are you going to do, General?"
"Don't worry, I am very familiar with this place, I will go out from the woods ahead."
He Qixiong was very confident in himself, and after arranging everything, he drove forward and joined Gu Zhengzhan directly.
As soon as the sound of weapons colliding was heard, Li Zhun led his men to attack the surrounding Yan family army.
"He Qixiong, you are cheating."
"Hehe, Gu Zheng, soldiers never tire of cheating, look at the sword!"
He Qixiong's sword skills are top-notch, suppressing Gu Zheng with every move, thinking he has the upper hand, but he didn't see the slight curve of Gu Zheng's mouth when he wasn't paying attention.
At the same time, Yan Feng and Yan Yun led two teams to attack North Jiang Daying from east and west directions, and successfully found their granary at the location indicated by Yan Jinyu.
"It's a pity, there is not enough time, otherwise we can transport all the food and grass back to our camp."
Yan Feng shook his head, then lit the torches, and Yan Yun and others did the same. Hundreds of torches were thrown out at the same time, and the granary was instantly ablaze.
"withdraw."
The two teams returned quickly according to the previous route. When the Northern Jiang army who stayed behind found out, they had already disappeared, so they could only put out the fire with all their strength.
