Wang Wei was a straightforward man, he got along well with the soldiers under him. He often drank with them and bragged about himself, which earned him great support. Seeing Wang Wei's blade stab into his heart and not caring about their own injuries, allowing them to escape quickly, the soldiers did not run. Instead, they charged forward and tried to save Wang Wei from Chunyu Qiong's grasp.
"Let's go!" "Let's go," Wang Wei muttered to himself as he looked at the warriors who were rushing over. He released Chunyu Qiong and wanted to wave them to flee, but his arm still hung powerlessly, falling to the ground with a thump.
"Yes!" Kill, you cannot leave Academy Officer Wang behind! "
The remaining thirty odd White Horse Camp Cavalry s were filled with both grief and anger. They roared as they desperately rushed in this direction, but they were tightly entangled by enemies who were several times stronger than them, and were knocked down from their horses one after another.
"Pui!" F * ck, you actually dared to bite this general! " Chunyu Qiong spat on Wang Wei's face, and then kicked the latter's body that had collapsed onto the ground heavily.
Plop! The last rider of the White Horse Camp was hit by a few blades at the same time and fell to the ground to die.
The hundred people that Wang Wei led were all killed, and no one tried to escape.
Just then, a large troop of cavalrymen suddenly rushed over from the other side of the river. Gongsun Xu had brought over 2000 people with his flying horses and rushed over.
Gongsun Xu raised his head and looked over, just in time to see that the last person fell from the horse, his gaze shifted, and saw Chunyu Qiong kicking Wang Wei's body again. If the floating bridge had not been destroyed by the flames, Gongsun Xu would have ordered his men to kill without hesitation, killing all of the enemies in front of him.
"General, general!" The enemy is here! " One of Chunyu Qiong's personal guards saw the large group of people coming from the opposite side and was stunned for a moment. Then, she quickly reported to Chunyu Qiong who had temporarily lost her reason.
Chunyu Qiong stopped, raised her head and looked across the river, she was shocked, it was not that she was shocked at the enemy's numbers, the floating bridge had already been burnt, no matter how many people came, they wouldn't be able to cross it in the short term, he was shocked that the enemy's forces were actually holding a group of captives, judging from their attire, they were the first to reach the camp, was Qu Yi actually defeated? Although he couldn't wait for Qu Yi to die, it was too short, right? If they were to camp out so quickly and lose to this group of people, this group of enemies would be too terrifying!
"Who is on the other side?" Just then, Shan Meng walked up and asked loudly.
Chunyu Qiong nodded her head, and immediately, someone replied loudly: "The great general Chunyu Qiong is here, who are you?"
'Chunyu Qiong? ' Gongsun Xu thought about this person for a while and remembered that she was precisely that guy who accidentally lost her Dark Nest. He carefully looked at Chunyu Qiong and remembered his opponent's appearance, in his heart, Chunyu Qiong was already a dead man! Fighting on the battlefield would inevitably lead to her death, but Gongsun Xu was unable to forgive Chunyu Qiong's mistreatment of her corpse, and furthermore, Wang Wei was a general that he valued highly.
"I am protecting Academy Officer Wu Huan!" Gongsun Xu immediately took the lead and shouted, "Chunyu Qiong, this general wants to make a deal with you!"
"Haha!" Chunyu Qiong laughed loudly: "Gongsun Xu, you and I are enemies, how could this general agree to a deal with you? Stop daydreaming! "
"Qu Yi is already dead, this general will use these captives to kill him," Gongsun Xu turned around and looked at the crestfallen captives, he pointed at Wang Wei's corpse and shouted: "Use them to exchange for the corpses of this general's brothers!"
"Qu Yi is really dead!" Chunyu Qiong was both surprised and happy, she was extremely interested in Gongsun Xu's suggestion. He had long coveted the valiant soldiers who had gone up to camp first, it was just that Qu Yi didn't dare to have this idea while he was there. If she could exchange over a hundred useless corpses for a batch of elite soldiers, why wouldn't he do it?
Chunyu Qiong shouted loudly, "Good! This general agrees to your suggestion! However, this general wants to first look at General Qu Yi's body! "
Gongsun Xu waved his hand, Gongsun Jia raised his long spear and spurred his horse forward, the tip of the spear impressively sticking onto Qu Yi's head.
When Chunyu Qiong's subordinates saw that it was indeed Qu Yi's corpse, they instantly let out cries of shock and fear.
The first to enter the camp were filled with both grief and grief. They all lowered their heads, not daring to look at Qu Yi's head again.
"It really is that Qu Yi's body!" Chunyu Qiong looked carefully and her heart was at ease.
"Chunyu Qiong!" Gongsun Xu shouted: "The corpse has been buried, only the head is still there! Did you see it clearly? "
Chunyu Qiong nodded, "That's right, it is indeed General Qu Yi! How do I exchange it? "
Gongsun Xu pointed to the pier of the bridge and shouted: "Cut down the trees and spread them out there, build a narrow bridge that can only be passed by two or three people at a time. This general will first send over a hundred people, then send someone over to bring the corpses back.
"Alright!" Do it! You and I will each build half a wooden bridge. " Chunyu Qiong happily agreed, and immediately sent dozens of people to the nearby woods to cut down the wood.
Gongsun Xu also let Shan Meng bring over a hundred people to the nearby forests to cut down the trees.
Zhao Yun stepped forward and said softly, "Master, I am about 120 steps away from Chunyu Qiong. After changing the corpses of Wang Wei and the others later, can I try to kill Chunyu Qiong?"
Just as Gongsun Xu was about to agree, he suddenly thought about the black nest incident that had originally occurred in history. Although he was moved by Zhao Yun's suggestion, he slowly shook his head. Leaving a lousy teammate like Chunyu Qiong to Yuan Shao might actually be beneficial for this battle.
"Master?" Zhao Yun was confused. If Gongsun Xu had shot the arrows at the same time as him, he would at least have a fifty percent chance of killing Chunyu Qiong on the spot.
Gongsun Xu quickly thought of an excuse: "I want to kill this person face to face and avenge Wang Wei and the other brothers! But why not teach him a lesson first? Zi Long and I will shoot Chunyu Qiong's war horse together later! "
Zhao Yun nodded, he did not doubt Gongsun Xu's reasoning.
The construction of a small wooden bridge was very simple. In less than an hour, a wooden bridge made of rough wood, tied together to make a bridge, appeared on the surface of the river. This wooden bridge was only five to six feet wide. It could at most two people at a time, and with just a slight collision, it was possible that he would fall into the river.
"According to the agreement, this general will release them first." Gongsun Xu shouted to Chunyu Qiong, and turned to instruct his men to release.
After the hundred armored soldiers had been freed, they followed the wooden bridge and slowly crossed the river. Chunyu Qiong had the heart to subdue these people for her own use, so she was extremely sad for them. She was filled with righteous indignation at Qu Yi's death, and she swore to avenge Qu Yi right in front of everyone.
Gongsun Xu laughed coldly, and shouted loudly: "Chunyu Qiong, this general is sending people over to transport the corpses, I hope you do not go back on your words!"
"Gongsun Xu, this general has always been the most loyal, and will never go back on my word when I agree to anything. Chunyu Qiong answered loudly. Seeing that there were still more than a hundred prisoners on the other side of the river, he hoped wholeheartedly that Gongsun Xu would also bring them back. He did not have any ulterior motives.
Gongsun Xu picked twenty people along the way. After giving some instructions, the twenty people crossed the bridge under Gongsun Yi's lead, and carefully approached the corpses of Wang Wei and the others. After realising that Chunyu Qiong had kept her promise, they quickly and carefully lifted up the corpse and went along the wooden bridge back to the north lakeshore of the river.
Gongsun Xu walked to the side of Wang Wei's corpse and sighed. Although his abilities were limited, he had always been a loyal person, and had even prepared to give him priority, but who knew that he would die unexpectedly in this place. He took off his black cape, and slowly put it on Wang Wei's upper body. He used his right hand to thump his chest as he bowed towards Wang Wei.
Zhao Yun and the others followed suit, and many soldiers who were on good terms with Wang Wei shed tears.
Gongsun Yi and the others walked back and forth for over a dozen times before they finally managed to retrieve the corpses of the fallen soldiers.
Gongsun Yi walked over and whispered, "Young master, do we need to bring them back or bury them on the spot?"
"Just go there." Gongsun Xu's gaze swept across the hundred over corpses, and said loudly: "In a few days, our army will definitely cross the river and defeat Yuan Shao! Let them watch the army cross the river and avenge them. "
Gongsun Yi nodded slightly as he brought a few hundred people to a higher ground to start digging. In the midst of war and chaos, it was already good enough for people to be buried if they died. Wanting the coffin was simply impossible.
Chunyu Qiong, who was waiting anxiously, could not help but urge her horse to move forward a few steps and shout: "Gongsun Xu, the corpse has already been carried away, why haven't you handed the remaining soldiers back to me? Do you want to go back on your word? "
"Release them!" Gongsun Xu did not argue with Chunyu Qiong, and with a wave of his hand, he ordered the rest of the hundred plus people to be released.
Before these people left, they would glance at Qu Yi's head again and again. It was just that they were extremely fearful of Gongsun Xu, and no one dared to open their mouths to request for Qu Yi's head to be taken away.
Seeing that Gongsun Xu had let them go, Chunyu Qiong was immediately overjoyed. She spurred her horse to take a few steps forward, ready to comfort them.
Gongsun Xu waited until all the captives crossed the wooden bridge before whispering to Zhao Yun: "Do it!" With that said, he took off his bow and arrow, and pulled the full moon arrow as he shot it towards Chunyu Qiong's warhorse.
Zhao Yun was already prepared, and shot his bow at almost the same time as Gongsun Xu.
Chunyu Qiong was currently speaking with her head lowered to the prisoners who had gone to camp first, and did not notice the two arrows that were shooting straight towards her warhorse.
"General, the enemy's hidden arrow!"
"General, be careful!" Quick, dodge it! "
The surrounding Chunyu Qiong's subordinates quickly discovered this and quickly warned him loudly.
Chunyu Qiong raised her head and realized that the two black lines were already within reach. She was so shocked that her face had drained of all color.
Pfft! Pfft! Two arrows pierced through Chunyu Qiong's warhorse at almost the same time, one of them hitting him in the forehead and the other hitting him in the neck.
The warhorse let out a pitiful cry as it fell to the side, and its heavy body coincidentally smashed into Chunyu Qiong's left leg. Chunyu Qiong shouted loudly, cold sweat rolling down her forehead as she desperately tried to push away the horse's corpse.
Only then did the surrounding people react. They all rushed towards the dead body of the warhorse and moved it away.
Chunyu Qiong was helped to stand up, and started to curse at Gongsun Xu.
Gongsun Xu bellowed: "Chunyu Qiong, this general will punish you lightly first. Your head will temporarily be on your body, and this general will personally take it sooner or later!"
"Bah!" Chunyu Qiong spat out, and shouted angrily: "Shameless child, there will be a day when this general will torture you to death!"
Gongsun Xu laughed coldly, he could no longer be bothered to argue with Chunyu Qiong, and turned towards Gongsun Yi's direction.
"Yes!" Seeing that Chunyu Qiong was still cursing, Zhao Yun once again pulled his bow and released an arrow, shooting one of the people beside Chunyu Qiong down from her horse.
Chunyu Qiong was shocked, she immediately retreated and left with her people.
