MTL - Drunk House-Chapter 476 Retreat (2 more)
Chapter 476 Retreat (second update)
Ning Chi watched from the city wall, Zhou Gu led the men in black into the Hebei army camp, some went straight to the place where the drums were beating, and beheaded the Hebei soldiers who were beating the siege drums, and Zhou Gu himself, went straight to the people under the star banner.
Someone shouted: "Hurry up and protect the general."
Someone also shouted, "Protect the third son!"
In the northern Hebei barracks, there was a sudden chaos.
Without the siege drums to cheer them up, the soldiers of the Northern Hebei Army slowed down their movements, especially when they heard the chaos in the rear, they panicked.
Ning Chi seized the opportunity and immediately ordered, "Open the city gate, all soldiers, follow me out to kill the enemy."
Although the Nanping Army was wounded and disabled, they were suddenly inspired. Following Ning Chi's order, the gates of the city were opened, and the defenders rushed out with their weapons.
Jiang Zhu also took the brothers from Shibazhai to kill them.
Ning Ze didn't go, but he held Zhang Mao down and reassured him, "You won't go back on your word, will you?"
Zhang Mao leaned over him and said with a pale face, "No."
He has already killed the Northern Hebei Army, and he has no chance to repent.
Ning Ze thought about it too, let go of him, "You and I don't go down, one more is not too much, one less is not much."
He doesn’t want to go down to die anymore. He really has no energy now. In the past two days, his elder brother and Jiang Zhu are the main force, but they both have time to rest. He is the only one. Although killing the enemy is useless, he really didn’t rest during the period.
And Zhang Mao's heavy leg that was chopped off with a knife can no longer stand up, so naturally there is no need to go.
The two rested for a while, Ning Ze heard the shouts from the city, he stood up, struggled to look down the city wall, looked down for a while, his eyes widened, "Zhang Cheng seems to have been killed by Zhou Gu."
Zhang Mao froze for a moment, "Really?"
"It seems to be." Ning Ze turned around, pulled him up from the ground with some strength, and asked him to look down along the city wall. "Look, the Northern Hebei Army is in chaos, and the star flags are all down, and the 50,000 soldiers and horses are actually scattered in a circle. They are in a mess, and they seem to have no fighting spirit. If there is nothing wrong with the main general, it can't be like this."
Zhang Mao looked at it for a while, then suddenly laughed ironically, "It's really ridiculous."
"Huh?" Ning Ze asked, "What did you say?"
"I said that my father is really ridiculous. He has planned for many years, is ambitious, and wants to win the throne. My son was the first to miss and defected. Then my second uncle brought 200,000 soldiers and horses to attack Nanping City, but turned around. Nanping City had 30,000 soldiers and horses. Without reinforcements, the North Hebei Army was defeated like this."
"Not yet defeated." Ning Ze said.
"I will lose immediately, there is no doubt about it." Zhang Mao didn't know whether to be thankful that he didn't want to die and wanted to rely on Su Rong to find a way out for himself, or whether he should mock the 200,000 soldiers and horses for losing in such a muddle.
He thought, even if his second uncle died, he would probably feel aggrieved by his death.
Who would have imagined that Zhou Gu led his men, broke into the barracks where tens of thousands of soldiers and horses were besieging the city, and took the leader's head directly, and it was so successful.
"Withdrawn, actually withdrawn?" Ning Ze suddenly opened his eyes wide, "The remaining soldiers and horses of the Northern Hebei Army that can fight, have withdrawn?"
He wanted to yell behind him to ask someone to bring him a telescope, but he found that there was no one else on the city wall except Zhang Mao, and even the hidden guards his mother gave him had gone out to kill the enemy. He was silent for a moment, then turned around to pick up the telescope thrown aside in front of Ningchi's lower city wall.
He picked up the binoculars, held it and immediately looked down, and sure enough, he could see clearly that the Jibei Army had indeed withdrawn.
The drums of the Nanping Army were like thunder, and they killed the Northern Hebei Army. However, the Northern Hebei Army lost its commander. It was in disarray and had no fighting spirit, so it could only be killed by the Nanping Army. Therefore, someone in the Northern Hebei Army issued an order to retreat, and those who could leave followed.
Tens of thousands of soldiers and horses retreated while fighting, and the withdrawal was very fast.
Throwing away those who were injured by soft tendons and couldn't get up and run, there was also the body of the coach Zhang Cheng, which was not taken away.
Ning Ze’s bright eyes were filled with effort, and he turned his head to ask Zhang Mao, “How do you feel at this moment?”
How does Zhang Maoneng feel? He had already anticipated this kind of result just now, and he said: "It can only show that the Zhang family has no such fate."
Ning Ze reached out to pat him, and asked him, "Who are you?"
"In short, it's not Zhang Mao."
Ning Ze Da Le, "That's right, why don't you give yourself a new name? Starting today, Zhang Mao will be dead."
"Let Miss Su Qi give me a name, after all, if she accepts me, she will be my new master." Zhang Mao said.
Ning Ze nodded, "That makes sense."
Under the city, the Northern Hebei Army retreated, and the Nanping Army naturally had no strength to pursue. Zhou Gu also took his sword away, looking coldly at the place where the Northern Hebei Army retreated.
This time, maybe Zhang Cheng was careless, maybe he wanted to take Nanping City too much, so although Zhang Cheng was surrounded by people, the protection was not so airtight, and he and Feng Ling broke in suddenly, so Zhang Cheng was killed by him with a sword.
As for Zhang Yun, probably because of weak tendons, he has no self-protection ability, and he is seriously injured, so there are many guards around him today, and it is airtight.
Failed to kill him, Feng Ling's poison was also thrown out, he covered his mouth and nose, and missed the trick.
He was in the North Hebei Army, and he obviously meant what he said, so when he saw that Zhang Cheng was dead, the army's morale was in disarray, and the wounded and disabled soldiers of the Nanping Army opened the city gate and killed them, he immediately knew that the situation was over, and immediately issued an order to retreat.
So, he was protected by the Northern Hebei Army and retreated away.
"This bastard, let him run away." Feng Ling also stomped.
"Today's result is always good." Zhou Gu Meifeng sternly took out the crown prince's token, "All the soldiers of the Northern Hebei Army obey the order. Those who surrender will kneel down to receive the order from the prince. Those who do not surrender will be regarded as traitors and executed on the spot."
Hundreds of thousands of northern Hebei troops were hit by weak tendons. Zhou Gu's voice penetrated the entire barracks with internal strength, ensuring that everyone could hear it clearly.
The soldiers in northern Hebei heard clearly, who wants to die if they can live? Especially when the main general is dead, the third son retreated with his people, leaving behind those who were weak and unable to take them away. If they didn't surrender, they could only die.
So, after Zhou Gu finished speaking, many soldiers in northern Hebei who were lying down, lying on their stomachs, and lacking any strength gradually knelt down on the spot with struggles.
There is no one who will not surrender.
Zhou Gu was satisfied, and said to Feng Ling: "You take these soldiers with you and settle down with Ning Shizi, and I will pick up your sister."
Feng Ling nodded, "Okay, brother-in-law, go quickly."
Babies, monthly pass, what?
