Difficult Journey
Chapter 673:Difficult Journey
To the southeast of Chaohu Lake, at the junction of Jiujiang County and Lujiang County, nearly tens of thousands of gangs surrounded a castle in the south of the mountain, and a body has been piled up under the castle, but those gangsters are not afraid, hooks, arrows, wood, messy everything.
There are countless tents not far from the dock, and it is obvious that these gangsters are ready to spend with the guards in the dock.
Above the castle dock, Zhang Jian looked at the chaos outside and his brows were wrinkled.
Two days ago, the siege of the docks of the gangs were two thousand or thirty thousand or more, but today it was suddenly reduced, leaving less than ten thousand, according to the enemy to reduce he should be glad, but he always felt that some of them were wrong.
This time the bandits came so suddenly, and once there were tens of thousands, he had to send someone to ask for help from his brother in Yuzhou.
However, although the attack was tight in the past two days, Zhang Jian felt that the other party did not do his best, and now he has gone to most of them, where are the gangsters who left?
It was like there was a conspiracy behind it.
Thinking, a guard came to the newspaper: "Two, catch the agent."
He said, “Go, look.”
In the past few years, Zhang Jian's whereabouts are uncertain, or in Guangling, or in Danyang, or on the river, or in the Chaohu Lake, but this time he was so accurate, Zhang Liao suspected that there was a problem inside, so that his cronies secretly investigated, and now he actually caught the spies.
In the castle dock, Zhang Jian looked at the people who were caught in front of him, and there was a little regret in his eyes, and then his look turned awe: "Chen Hong, why should you betray everyone?"
This Chen Hong is very familiar with, this person is very capable, from the beginning of Guangling to follow him, he is very serious about Chen Hong, did not expect that he actually betrayed him.
Chen Hong was arrested and then hard, knowing that life is hopeless, nor soft, he said: "Two home, or General Zhang, one and you are not a person."
Zhang Jian's face changed greatly, he was in Jianghuai, the name Wenqiang, this Chen Hong knew his surname Zhang, obviously things are very wrong, he can't help but turn his voice: "Who is you?"
Chen Hong seemed to know that he had lost his mouth and sneered.
Zhang Jian's heart is a little anxious, but the surface can not see, just want to dig out more news from this Chen Hong mouth, snoring, "Chen Hong, a good just life does not do, but to the thief, self-willing, power when the first eye."
Chen Hong's face rose red: "One is not one with those thieves, they are just ears for everyone."
All of you?Family?
Zhang Jian moved in his heart, but on the surface it was still sneer: "It is collusion with the thief and how?"A group of rabble, struggling to break the castle, will soon and later retreat."
Chen Hong laughed: "It was not for you, you know what is the sword of Xiangzhuang, intended to be a pagoda?"
Zhang Jian's face changed sharply, and Xuan pulled out his long sword and pointed directly to Chen Hong: "You are waiting for me to harm my brother?"
Chen Hong sneered: "It's not blunt."
Zhang Jian's whole body trembled, and he finally understood why the bandits had gone to most of them, and must have killed his brother.
“It should be killed!”
Zhang Jian's face was iron-green, a sword pierced Chen Hong's chest, and drank to the guard next to him: "The speed sent someone out to send a letter!"
Chen Hong’s mouth showed a hint of sarcasm: “It is late... Zhang Liao will die...”
At this time, Zhang Jian, an honest man, also revealed an unprecedented killing in the eyes, and said word for word: "If my brother travels to the pool, he must wash the Jianghuai family and destroy the three families!"
Looking at Zhang Jian, who was almost mad in anger, Chen Hong finally revealed a sense of fear in his eyes, he knew that as long as Zhang Jian did not die, he had this ability, and he suddenly did not know whether the families behind it could bear the consequences of this murder, but at this time he was unable to say anything more.
...
Killed!
Rumble!
The horseshoes roared like thunder, blood splashed, and howled, and an iron rider stepped out of a group of bandits and headed straight south.
On the back of the dragon, Zhang Liao was stained with blood, and the look was not easy.
A day ago, he took 10,000 cavalry across Huai Shui, bypassed Shouchun, and went south to Chaohu Lake.
After Hefei, there are not many defenders in Hefei City, seeing so many cavalry, do not dare to go out of the city, Zhang Liao is in a hurry to save Zhang Jian, but will not go to many things to attack Hefei, but bypass Hefei City, across the water, continue all the way to the south.
After passing the water, has been close to the nest lake, the road is complex, there are many large and small rivers, not suitable for cavalry large-scale combat, ten thousand cavalry gathered up inconvenient, the river is crowded, the battle is not open.
In addition, the cavalry can not take the path, can only take the road, from Hefei to Zhang Jian besieged land there are two roads, Feidong and Feixi, so Zhang Liao divided the 10,000 cavalry into two roads.
All the way to seven thousand riding, led by Xu Qiao, take the fat east, the fat east road is open, Xu Qiao as the main force from the front to rescue.
The other three thousand rides led by him himself, walking the Feixi Road, slightly rounded, dominated by Xu Qiao, and he went around to the flanks to take advantage of the opportunity to save people, can be more effective.
As for the route, Zhang Jian has already painted a topographic map in Chaohu Lake and handed it to Zhang Liao, so Zhang Liao is not confused with the terrain in this area.
Chaohu Lake is curved, the east and west are nearly 150 miles long, and more than 400 miles a week around the lake, whether it is the fat east or the western road, it is all dependent on the south of the nest lake.
To Zhang Liao amazement, soon after entering the area of Chaohu Lake, they were attacked on a large scale, because the ambush was found in time, they did not enter the narrow encirclement, but from the two sides of the mountain road rushed up countless gangs, enough tens of thousands of people.
On such a scale, it is obviously a premeditated ambush, and these bandits are still carrying a lot of stumbling horses, pushing the car, holding the horse, the wood, clearly used to deal with the cavalry!
If Zhang Liao did not realize that the target of this incident was likely to be his, then his courthouses in recent years were also confused.
It seems that Zhang Jian's identity has been exposed, and this identity has been used by some people, and the identity of these people, Zhang Liao, has also speculated.
He knew that after the implementation of the Klan, many political families in Kanto were extremely dissatisfied with him, because the SCO system threatened the political monopoly of these families, and not only the political status, with the implementation of the Keqi system, a new group of bureaucratic families will compete with them and weaken their influence in the local area.
In this way, Jianghuai's most hated to him, except for Yuan Shu, which is those family forces.
And Zhang Liao knows that there is a great reason for the inexhaustible local thieves, there is a reason for the local strong collusion with the thieves, or even the mighty self-denial, the tsars in Kantong County is very common, these attacked thieves are undoubtedly those families agitated and even participated in.
Seeing these thieves, Zhang Liao understood that it was not easy to fear the trip to the lake, and how these families had been brewing for so long, how could there be no means.
But in any case, from brother Zhang Jian is must be saved, in the nest lake, Zhang Liao must be killed with these family forces.
In the face of the siege of the bandits, Zhang Liao gave a bloody order to the three thousand cavalry accompanying him, three waves of riding to greet him, and then the horse stepped over to kill all the blockers in front of him!
Whether these thieves know the truth behind them, the situation in Chaohu is not that you die or I live, there is nothing innocent, and kindness is digging your own grave.
And they touched the reverse of the scales.
The princes were angry and bleeding for thousands of miles.
Under the orders of Zhang Liao, the killing of three thousand iron riders was completely released, listed as a battle, like a fierce beast, roaring and swallowing up to those gangs.
These bandits in the nest lake have seen such a large number of cavalry, even if it is shaved, but it has been broken by this momentum, and the invincible power of the tiger's riding of three thousand irons is enough to crush the fierceness of these bandits, just as Qin Daoyang dared to kill at the age of thirteen in Yanguo, but to the Qin Dao Temple.
Three thousand irons rode bloody, and the bandits hurried to avoid it.
Through the bandits, the iron ride continued, but Zhang Liao was more vigilant.
This is only the periphery, perhaps just a test of the enemy, since the lake is a must-see trap, there is a more powerful ambush in front.
The cavalry has an absolute advantage in the plains, but in this place where the mountains and waters are intersected, it is necessary to be careful to guard against it, and the boat must be overturned in the gutter.
Zhang Liao changed his mind while sending more repulsive to explore the situation.
At the same time, he also had some concerns about the situation of Xu Chuan's road, but Xu Zhuan's other side of Zhang Liao released the golden eagle to follow, in the way of exploring the road and the enemy is more advantageous than this side.
What is inevitable for Zhang Liao is that after being close to the nest lake for dozens of miles, it ushered in dusk and night.
Crises are often stronger at this time.
