Weird Three Kingdoms

Chapter 1832 Three Arrows Retire Xingba
Not far to the south of Duyang is Bowangpo, and Bowangpo goes south along the Yushui River, which is Wancheng.

And Wancheng is now Huang's territory.

Although it is said that Huang's control of this territory in Wancheng has not been officially recognized by the local government or the court, there is not much difference in the actual management of Huang's.For a long time, Wancheng has been a place where some important supplies of Liu Biao and Cao Cao are purchased, and there are many businesses, so they are quite well informed about the news of the relevant departments.

Not long after Liu Biao made his decision, Huang Chengyan of Wancheng received the news.

Normally speaking, Huang Chengyan is more or less concerned about the face of his in-laws. After all, he and Liu Biao are both married to women from the Cai family, so they are somewhat related. Therefore, generally speaking, Huang Chengyan does not object to Liu Biao's decisions in most cases. Yes, but this time is different.

His own daughter and son-in-law, whether they are close or distant, are naturally more important than Liu Biao. Huang Chengyan is not too old to be fatuous, so when he heard Liu Biao's decision, he felt that Liu Biao seemed a little drifting...

Did Liu Biao take no medicine recently, or did he take too much medicine?

However, going directly to Liu Biao for the theory basically had no effect. Huang Chengyan immediately found Pang Shanmin. After the two discussed it, they decided to send troops to Duyang first, and take him to Wancheng, no matter what face Liu Biao had. Besides.

As for Liu Biao's problem, I will talk about it later. After all, Liu Biao's health is not good now, and many things are variable. Although Liu Biao has tried his best to cover up, the problem is still a problem, and no matter how much it is covered up, it will not have much effect.

Now from Xiangyang to Yingchuan, the whole situation is very delicate.

Liu Biao and Cao Cao formed an alliance when they joined forces to fight Yuan Shu, and they have not said that they will cancel the alliance, so in a sense, they are still allied forces, and the traffic ports are opened to each other, and the default interval between Liu Biao and Cao Cao, It is the Runan area.

Wenpin was in Xiangyang, and Gan Ning was in Duyang. They controlled the north-south direction of Wancheng one after the other, and also built two defensive lines against Cao Cao. Liu Biao thought that this would be foolproof, but what is the actual situation? It was not as good as Liu Biao imagined.

The most important issue is the number of soldiers. Liu Biao used Wenpin or Gan Ning to check and balance with Cai Mao. , still can't deduct the number of soldiers who have the advantage from Cai Mao's hands. After all, it is impossible for Liu Biao to turn against the Cai family, so it has been so not bad all the time.

Wen Ping is full, which is about 5000 people. As an outsider, Gan Ning has three or four thousand soldiers in his hands. If some auxiliary soldiers are deducted, the number of soldiers will be even smaller. This is also the number of soldiers from Duyang to the Huang family One of the main reasons was suddenly discovered when it was close to blocking the sun.

The leader of the Huang family is naturally still the Huang family. Of course, it cannot be Huang Chengyan. After all, Huang Chengyan is not young. He has old arms and legs, and has never practiced martial arts. Of course he is not suitable for the battlefield, so Huang Chengyan came. loyal.

Huang Zhong's performance in the past two years is obviously better than in history. Both in terms of economic pressure and living conditions, they are better. Therefore, although he is in his early forties, he is still at his peak. When he led the troops to rush to Duyang City overnight, although his appearance was covered with a lot of dust, he didn't look tired.

"Kaicheng!let go! Huang Zhong shouted loudly from the city, "Gan Ning Gan Xingba!"And make no mistake! 』

Gan Ning naturally didn't have the time to come to answer, Huang Zhong also just put on a show, glanced at the black smoke rising from the city, and ordered the soldiers to prepare to attack the city immediately.

Although the Jingzhou soldiers above Duyang City were a little flustered, most people still felt that Huang Zhong and others could not pose much threat immediately. After all, there were thick city gates across the city wall and moat, so they sent people to Notified Gan Ning, while strengthening the interception of Zhu Ling.

Under Zhang Yun's order, most of the archers in the city were mobilized to the east gate, and there was only a small number left at the west gate, and they had to focus on intercepting Zhu Ling, so they couldn't attack Huang Zhong's men at all. No matter how many threats they caused, Huang Zhong's subordinates quickly nailed the materials they brought together in one place, built two or three ladders, and laid them flat on the moat, and several soldiers held up their shields to block Yangxi City. touch the door...

If these Jingzhou soldiers had the chance to choose again, these Jingzhou soldiers would definitely focus all their attention on Huang Zhong and the others, but unfortunately, these Jingzhou soldiers under Gan Ning were basically taken by Zhu Lingzhang. Lie and the others attracted all their attention, not many people cared about what exactly Huang Zhong's men did.

A few of Huang Zhong's subordinates were basically not attacked. Holding their shields and half-bending, they climbed over the horizontal ladder staggeringly but not slowly, and then slipped under the west gate along the base of the city wall.

After a while, several Huang Zhong's subordinates ran out from the opening of the west city gate with a huff as if their buttocks were burned, and then ran along the base of the wall to both sides...

Seeing this situation, the Jingzhou soldiers on the gate tower were also a little dazed, what's wrong?Before this thought lingered in my mind for a long time, I heard a bang, and the entire Duyang West City Gate seemed to jump up on the spot!The pillars of the gate tower seemed to be creaking and trembling, dust and tiles fell down amidst the loud noise!Thick smoke rose up along the city gate!

Huang Zhong frowned slightly as he stared at the west city gate where smoke was rising.

Although the momentum is huge, the effect is relatively general.The city gate was not torn apart by the explosion, and most of it was still intact, but a half-person-high hole was blasted at the explosion point below...

The gunpowder formula at Fei Qian's place was also developed in Huang Yueying's private workshop, and Huang Chengyan naturally had it here, but the same ratio obviously did not achieve the strong effect as described in the letter.

Although the city gate was not blown open all at once, the sudden loud noise and strong fireworks made the Jingzhou soldiers defending the west city gate so frightened that they almost lost control of their excrement and urine, especially the Jingzhou soldiers near the city gate cave, who fell into a huge panic. In the midst of panic and disorder, many people either froze in place stupidly, or left the formation without thinking and just ran away to avoid...

Human beings are born with some fear of the unknown, and the relatively small space of the city gate will undoubtedly amplify the impact of the sound and fire!
Unlike the Jingzhou soldiers who were almost scared to pee, whether it was Zhang Lie or Zhu Ling, or the hussars below them, they all had an indescribable sense of familiarity with such a loud noise. , just stunned for a few seconds, and then louder cheers broke out, and the whole momentum went straight up two or three steps in vain!

"The general is here! 』

"Hussars are coming! 』

Many of the soldiers under Zhang Lie and Zhu Ling couldn't help cheering, and even charged forward recklessly, but the Jingzhou soldiers who were originally blocking the west city gate lost their formation and fighting spirit, and almost looked like summer soldiers in the blink of an eye. The ice and snow under the scorching sun quickly collapsed and melted, and was immediately broken through!

Although the city gate bolt has been twisted and deformed, it can still be pulled open!

Zhu Ling, who rushed up to the city gate, also led people to destroy the mechanism of the suspension bridge, and the suspension bridge that was quickly smashed down fell on the moat of the city moat, making a loud creaking sound!

Everyone cheered, and like a tiger out of trouble, they quickly walked along the west city gate, which was still full of gunpowder smoke, and went straight to the outside of Duyang city!
With the help of the guards, Zhang Lie wrapped up the wound and retreated while fighting.

But Gan Ning still insisted on relentlessly refusing to give up easily, chasing and pestering Zhang Lie, like a party B who couldn't ask for money, refused to let Zhang Lie go no matter what.

Zhu Ling, who had already rushed out of the city, saw that it was not the real hussar general who came to help him, but knowing that it was the Huang family's men, he felt more at ease. After all, he was the lord's relatives, so he could put half of it down. Heart.

But when he turned his head, through the open city gate, Zhu Ling saw that Zhang Lie was still tightly entangled by Gan Ning and couldn't get away. Huang Zhong stopped.

"Stay here for a while, let someone come..."

Huang Zhong took the arrow and drew the bow steadily.

Huang Zhong used a foot battle bow, which was relatively long and thicker than ordinary bows.Standing aside, Zhu Ling even seemed to be able to hear the creaking sound of the bowstring when the bow was drawn.

"Gan Xingba! 』

Huang Zhong exhaled, and the moment the arrow left the string, he also shouted loudly!
I saw the bowstring suddenly bouncing back to its original position and trembling, and the long arrow on the bowstring seemed to disappear suddenly, and when I turned my head to chase the trace of the long arrow in the air, there was a kind of line of sight that I couldn't follow on the feeling!
Gan Ning was somewhat annoyed. After all, the pass he was stationing was pierced through from front to back. Although there was a reason for the incident, it was hard to say, so he also thought about keeping Zhang Lie in front of him. At least it was an explanation. When he was clinging to Zhang Lie, he suddenly felt chills all over his body, as if he was being stared at by a wild beast. He was shocked, and then he heard someone calling his name, and he suddenly looked up and saw something. The starburst is like a shooting star from the sky hitting the front sideways!
Almost subconsciously, Gan Ning blocked himself with the wide and thick blade of the saber across the back of the saber!

"clang! 』

It was obviously just an arrow, but the sound it made when it hit Gan Ning's saber was almost the same as that of a normal saber or gun!The powerful impact even made the blade swing backwards, almost hitting Gan Ning's nose!

The lingering sound of the first arrow did not dissipate, and the second arrow pierced through the air again!

Gan Ning didn't have time to check whether his saber was damaged again in such an impact. Seeing the second arrow flashing past like a shooting star in such a short time, it seemed to be in a chaotic and disorderly manner. Among the crowd, an absolutely still line was drawn!

From the corner of Gan Ning's eyes, he saw that the space on the left seemed to be relatively loose, and he didn't think much about it. He rolled over and tried to avoid the shining straight line, but after he made the dodging action, he suddenly realized that the arrow was actually It was a prediction for his evasive behavior!It was as if I had taken the initiative to greet him!
As soon as the expert makes a move, he will know if there is any.

Gan Ning is also good at archery, but when faced with Huang Zhong's archery skills, he still had to submit.

It is not too difficult to hit a fixed target. Even ordinary soldiers can basically hit the target after three to five months of training, but it is not so easy to hit a moving target or even predict it in advance. up.

In fact, Huang Zhong's archery is still due to his son's illness.

Back then, Huang Zhong's son was physically weak and coughed a lot. If he couldn't keep up with his nutrition, he might have gone to hell immediately!As a last resort, Huang Zhong had to go up the mountain to hunt every two days, and for more vigilant prey, passing through lush branches and bushes, one-hit kill is the basic requirement, otherwise he would not be able to bring sufficient nutrition to his son...

It can be said that Huang Zhong's archery skills were forced out in order to extend his son's life, so they are naturally sharper than ordinary people.

The blood on Gan Ning's face faded!
It was too late to dodge again, or the horizontal knife blocked it. At the critical moment, Gan Ning could only follow the momentum of the side attack, and yanked an unlucky ghost who happened to be near the arrow's path...

The unlucky ghost was pulled by Gan Ning, and his body was tilted.

"Puff! 』

It was as if a skin sac filled with blood had been punctured, and it burst open!

The blood-stained arrow shaft is like a trapped ferocious beast. After penetrating into the flesh and tearing out a lot of flesh and blood, you are unwilling to break free, and immediately threw most of it out the next moment. Fortunately, because the unlucky ghost was pulled by Gan Ning, he lost his center of gravity, and was shot by Huang Zhong's heavy arrow. , Maybe it will be stuck on Gan Ning.

The third arrow!
It roared towards it with the breath of death, as if it could freeze all human blood!
Not to mention that the saber has fallen aside, even if it is in the hand, it may not be able to accurately find the direction of the arrow and block it in such a crooked posture!

Gan Ning howled for a while, and picked up a slightly incomplete shield that fell from someone on the ground. He didn't care that the shield could not cover the butt if it covered the head and face. Zhong's heavy arrows are better!

"clang! 』

In the next second, Huang Zhong's arrow arrived!
However, this arrow did not shoot at Gan Ning's body, but on the ring-sword that had fallen beside Gan Ning's side. The sharp arrow pierced the paper easily. The copper bell on the knife nailed it to the ground!
Gan Ning slowly removed the shield, and through the opening of the city gate, he saw Huang Zhong on the back of a horse in the moat, his face uncertain.

Taking advantage of this gap, Zhang Lie led the last group of people across the suspension bridge...

Huang Zhong nodded slightly towards Gan Ning, then retracted his longbow, held down the rear, and retreated slowly.After all, Huang Zhong just came to save people, and didn't want to start a war with Jingzhou Liu Biao immediately.

On the blood-stained street, Zhang Yun ran over with his soldiers panting, and couldn't help but shouted: "No!chase!catch up!Can't let them get away! 』

Gan Ning stared blankly at the ground. At this moment, Gan Ning realized that Huang Zhong should have kept his hand.The bell nailed to the ground on the saber seemed to indicate that if Huang Zhong really wanted to shoot Gan Ning, then Gan Ning might be nailed to the ground just like the bell...

Zhang Yun was still croaking.

Gan Ning stretched out his legs and hooked up his saber on the ground, looked at the copper bell that was shot down, and then looked at the damage and gaps on the saber, and then gave Zhang Yun a sideways glance: "Someone has not obtained the envoy's military order." , can't leave without permission!General Zhang wants to chase, so he can do it himself! 』

Zhang Yun was furious, and was about to explode, but saw Gan Ning's face was sombre, he turned around and left without hesitation, he was suffocated, and after a while he jumped up and cursed, although he didn't say anything, he made up his mind My idea is to sue Gan Ning in front of my uncle!
Anyway, this time, I have no fault at all, everything is Gan Ning's fault!
