According to Chen Ren's instructions, the sergeants bound Ma Chao firmly and took him down. Chen Ren watched the 200000 Cao troops retreating slowly. If Zhang Fei ordered the retreat at the beginning, Chen Ren would not have been difficult for them, but now!
Chen Ren suddenly turned his head and looked at Chen Kang, who was still smiling in the army. Anyway, some of the children of the Chen family have shown their faces today. Let them see the power of the second young master of the Chen family again! At the thought of this, Chen Ren suddenly gave a strange smile and ordered the army to withdraw to Chengdu. Chen Ru was still a little bit addicted and wanted to go after him, but he was carried back by his father.
In addition, Zhang Fei was pulled down by Zhang Liao and Cao Hong. He knew that even if he went back now, it would be useless. He had to take the army back by the original route. Along the way, Zhang Fei has been drooping his head, no longer as elated as when he came. When Zhang Liao and Cao Hong saw that Zhang Fei was no longer bothering to go back, and the Dongwu army in the back did not catch up with him, they left at ease. However, they were all injured and needed medical treatment from the military.
Zhang Fei, alone and with a large army, marched toward Guanghan City. According to the plan made by Zhang Liao and Cao Hong, they would stay in Guanghan City and stay here. At the very least, this can pose a threat to Zhao Yun in Qishan. The best situation is to drag Chen Ren here. After all, Chen Ren represents the whole army of the Soochow Kingdom, and is also the commander-in-chief of the Jiangdong new army, the largest military force in Soochow. If Chen Ren was absent, the Dongwu army would not be able to organize a formal attack.
Zhang Fei led the 200000 army to the north in despondency. According to the distance, when it was dark, they should be able to reach Guanghan City. However, as the sky grew darker and darker, Cao's soldiers suddenly found that the road seemed to have no end. They did not even see the shadow of Guanghan City. Originally, those vice generals wanted to tell Zhang Fei about this strange thing, but as soon as they saw Zhang Fei's black face, their words came to their mouths and were swallowed. Maybe it was just because the army was defeated, so the march was slower? The adjutants were so comforting to each other.
But as time went by, the moon was hanging in the sky, but Guanghan City was still not there. Even the soldiers were aware of it, marching and talking. Just as the aides gathered together to discuss whether they should be brave enough to go to Zhang Fei, one of them suddenly screamed and pointed to the front with a pale face.
"Who is it! How, how, how! Be careful! I'll kill you Immediately, Zhang Fei's angry voice came from the front. Obviously, his whole stomach's fire has not been eliminated.
The exclamatory aide general was immediately covered by his left and right colleagues. Another deputy drank and cursed in a low voice: "Lao Guo! It's not killing me! You don't know how powerful general Zhang's whip is. You dare to disturb him at this time! Be careful that he will tie you to the stake and whip you to death! You will regret it then
The Assistant General Guo, who was covered with his mouth, was also frightened by Zhang Fei. But when he thought of what he had just seen, he quickly opened his hand covering his mouth and whispered to his colleagues, "no! I, I just saw a strange thing! Look With that, Lao Guo quickly pointed to the side of the road, but it was a broken tombstone.
In this troubled time, there are too many people dead, so it's very common to see one or two tombstones on the road. Those vice generals do not understand Lao Guo's meaning at all. Old Guo said with a pale face, "I saw this tombstone half an hour ago! It's as like as two peas, even the gap on the tombstone is not bad! "
After listening to Lao Guo's words, all the vice generals' faces suddenly turned as pale as he was. The deputy general beside Lao Guo couldn't help shivering and said to Lao Guo, "Lao, Lao Guo, don't take such a joke!"
Lao Guo was almost crying by these people. He wanted to yell at them. However, at the thought of the whip in Zhang Fei's hand, Lao Guo controlled himself and said in a low voice: "do you think I still have the mind to joke? Don't you think it's strange? How far is it from Chengdu to Guanghan! We have been walking for so long that we haven't even seen the shadow of Guangzhou Seoul! Tell me, is there a problem? If you want me to see, maybe we have met the legendary "ghost hitting the wall"
When Lao Guo said the three words "ghosts hit the wall", all the other deputies couldn't help shivering. You looked at me and I watched, and everyone's eyes were full of fear. "What, what to do?" another deputy said, trembling? Let's go and tell General Zhang now. "
The deputy's proposal was immediately rejected by his colleagues. He glared at the Deputy: "tell him? What do you say? Say we might have hit a wall? According to his temper, you must be killed by a big mouth
As soon as Lao Guo thought of Zhang Fei's round eyes, he shivered again. His eyes were blank and said, "well, what should I do? Then we'll go to General Zhang Liao and general Cao! "
"No! The two generals are still resting in the carriage. If you go to see them now, you will disturb them to have a rest, and that will be death! "
When several vice generals couldn't figure out a way, Zhang Fei finally reacted. How could he not reach Guanghan City? Zhang Fei looked up at the sky and the surrounding scenes, and suddenly called out, "come on! Come onThose aides who were still discussing were shocked by the roar of Zhang Fei's voice. Seeing that Zhang Fei was shouting, they rushed to Zhang Fei's back and bowed his head to Zhang Fei and said, "General Zhang! It will be in the end
Zhang Fei pointed around and roared at the aides: "what's going on? Why haven't we reached Guanghan yet? Are you leading the army in the wrong way? " As soon as Zhang Fei raised his hand, the eight Zhang snake spear in his hand was in front of all the vice generals.
Those vice generals quickly turned and dismounted and kowtowed to Zhang Fei. Lao Guo raised his head and said to Zhang Fei, "general! We didn't take the wrong way! This road is indeed the only way to Guanghan City, but I don't know why, we, we just can't get to Guanghan City! Therefore, at the end of the day, he doubted and doubted... "Lao Guo's words, speaking in the middle, did not dare to say anything.
Zhang Fei's irascible temper did not allow him to be hesitant, and immediately roared: "doubt what! Don't say it quickly! Look for smoke
"At the end of the day, doubt, doubt, is a" ghost hitting the wall. " Lao Guo said that the voice was getting smaller and smaller, but it still fell in Zhang Fei's ears.
As expected, Zhang Fei heard Lao Guo's conjecture. Even in a rage, Zhang Fei drew the whip from his waist with his other hand. He pulled it from Lao Guo's body and drank: "I'll let you talk nonsense! I'll make you beat the wall In an instant, poor old Guo was whipped dozens of times by Zhang Fei. He screamed, and the stripes on his face made those aides tremble and sweat.
"General Zhang! What are you doing Just as Zhang Fei was about to kill the old Guo, Zhang Liao and Cao Hong came from behind the army. Looking at their untidy clothes and armor, they should have just woken up.
At this time, the old Guo had been knocked to death by Zhang Fei. Zhang Fei threw the whip, spat and walked directly from Lao Guo. He said to Zhang Liao and Cao Hong, "how about it? Is it OK with your injuries? "
Cao Hong raised his bandaged hands to show that there was no problem, but Zhang Liao frowned and asked Zhang Fei, "General Zhang, what has Guo committed? Why did you beat him so badly? " Zhang Liao was disgusted with Zhang Fei's practice in the bottom of his heart. He acted in accordance with his own preference. He whipped the soldiers with his horse whip, even if he beat a small soldier on weekdays. Now he even beat an assistant general. The rank of these Deputy generals may not be as high as Zhang Fei and others, but they are all grass-roots generals. If they are not done well, the morale of the army will go wrong.
However, Zhang Fei did not have this consciousness at all. He turned his head and spat at Lao Guo on the ground, and said to Zhang Liao carelessly, "this bastard is looking for smoke! It is clear that they took the wrong road, so that the army has not yet arrived in Guanghan City. When I asked them, they dare to fool me with what kind of ghost hit the wall! "
Zhang Liao's eyebrows were more and more wrinkled and deeper. Cao Hong opened his eyes and looked up at the night sky, and asked in surprise: "what? Haven't you been to Guangzhou Seoul yet? What's going on? In principle, we should have arrived before dark! "
Zhang Liao walked up to the assistant generals who were still kneeling on the ground and asked in a deep voice, "say! What's going on? "
Those vice generals look at me and I look at you, but with their heads down, no one dares to speak. If you tell the truth, you may get the same fate as Vice General Guo. However, if you admit that you have taken the wrong road, you will be dealt with by the military law. If you make a mistake, you may lose your head. How dare they admit it.
Seeing this, Zhang Liao knew that there must be something wrong with them. He quickly picked up a well-known Deputy General Zhang Liao. He looked into his eyes and asked, "say! What the hell is going on! "
The adjutant looked up at Zhang Liao. He remembered that Zhang Liao had always been fair. He bit his teeth and told the truth. However, it was specially emphasized that the matter of the tombstone was seen by Guo himself. First of all, he put himself aside.
