Because of the crowding and frustration, a small number of people chose to trust the officers and soldiers, abandoned their weapons and surrendered, but no one paid attention to them, and instead took the opportunity to escape.

And just when Douzigang's army began to charge, Han Erlang, Zhang Wulang and others fled wildly. When the troops in the outer camp were on the verge of collapse, in the center of the camp, the big leader Zhang Jinscale also fell into a daze with the support of a group of cronies. Horse... He looked around and saw that the campfire was full of fires, and the top and bottom were red. Even the two moons above his head, the white moon also turned red, and the red moon became even darker.

What's even worse is that with the fireworks all around and the chaos, he didn't even know where to go when he summoned his close followers.

In fact, before the fire broke out, the big leader woke up from his sleep and witnessed with his own eyes how a jumping crow ignited himself, but he easily doused it with weak water energy and took away the crow. Looking at the corpse, he suddenly woke up.

But then, it is the classic life of two, two begets three, three begets all things...

As soon as the crow died and he realized the problem, a fire broke out outside. He immediately ordered to save it, but as soon as the order was passed down, he put it out himself. Then two other fires broke out. He ordered to save it again and put it out himself. , and then the sky was full of fire, and with the help of wind and temperature, it swept across the surrounding fields and the camp, and the enemy troops in the direction of Douzigang came to attack at night with great fanfare.

By now, Zhang Jinsheng, who knew the whole story, had already given up on putting out the fire, and could only hastily gather the troops of his camp before making any calculations.

However, after hastily gathering some troops, he didn't know what to do?

"Big leader, do you want to go to other camps and call up some old brothers from Fuxian County?" The soldier leader who had just helped the big leader mount his horse turned pale and turned red from the reflection. He just hugged the horse's neck next to him.

Question: "Second Brother Wang's camp is located in the south. If we don't rescue him, we might fall into it immediately."

"No help! Leave quickly!" He hesitated and shook his head. The big leader maintained his last trace of calmness and gritted his teeth and ordered immediately. "There is no way to fight this chaos. If we delay it, we will only be defeated by the insurrectionary army."

Roll it into pieces and leave quickly. If you don’t leave, it will be too late! There are cavalry on the opposite side of the army!"

"Where can we go?" The leader of the soldiers tried hard to ask the other party's horse by the reins. He did not bother about rescuing Wang Er. "The enemy came from Douzigang in the south. Are we going west, east or north?"

Zhang Jinzheng was stunned on the spot... He wanted to grit his teeth and tell a direction, but he thought about the cavalry on the other side, thought that Cao Shancheng might be waiting for him somewhere, and thought that there was a county town controlled by the army at any direction, and

It is very likely that the officers and soldiers will go out of the city to block the attack under Cao Shancheng's arrangement. To add insult to injury, he is also completely panicked... In other words, until now, he doesn't know who he is fighting, and thinks it is his old rival, Cao Xian, the magistrate of Qixian County.

What about Shancheng's plan for him?

if not?

The imperial army has not come. In the whole of Hebei, apart from Cao Shancheng, is there any true hero who can play with himself so easily?

"Go...to the northwest." After a long while, Zhang Jinsheng said on the horse. "If you can survive, try to escape back to Gaotang and see if you can make a comeback; if you can't survive, go northwest and meet Cao Shancheng."

Maybe it's bigger... If I die in his hands, I won't be humiliated! Do you think that's okay?"

The leader of the soldiers listened blankly, unable to understand the other party's thinking at all, but looking at the other party's appearance at this time, he seemed to have nothing to say except to say yes.

So he immediately got on his horse, took him as an advance guard, and led the people to the northwest.

But after taking two steps, he found that his leader didn't move at all, and he was also shocked.

Zhang Jinscale held the reins, sweating profusely on his face: "I forgot how to ride a horse."

The leader of the personal soldiers swayed on his horse for a moment, then turned back, took Zhang Jinscale's horse and headed northwest. The trusted soldiers around him no longer hesitated and surrounded leader Zhang Da and headed northwest.

So far, most of the areas in the bandit camp have not actually been engaged in battle, but the inside has exploded like fire. Many bandit chiefs, like Zhang Jinscale, are leading their headquarters like headless flies.

Ran away wantonly.

This battle, as the fire raged and Po Tai's soldiers and horses seized the opportunity to start without any delay, the defeat of the rebel army became unstoppable.

However, it is impossible to end this battle completely so quickly.

In fact, despite Zhang Xing's arrogance before the battle and his decisive command at the beginning of the battle, when entering the enemy's camp, the infantry brigade under his control lost contact with the left and right wings... Although the Pu Tai Army was obviously pursuing

They fled to the north, but they were also in chaos.

Of course, there is good news. About when he advanced to a normal depth, Zhang Xing encountered a larger camp. Then, there should be a person in the camp who was one of Zhang Jinsheng’s confidants, named Wang Er, named Zhang Jin.

He gave up the rescue as an excuse and took the initiative to surrender.

Zhang Xing chose Promise.

Facts have proved that his promise was very timely, because there is only a thin layer of combustible material in the crop fields, which is different from the woods. Often, after one fire, it cannot be rekindled. If it is delayed any longer, these bandits will react and quickly

It may have some unexpected consequences... Wang Er's surrender and Zhang Jinscale's escape simply and quickly contributed to the complete surrender of the entire camp.

And this also means that Zhang Xing and others have achieved half of their strategic goals. After all, Zhang Jinscale himself doesn't know where he is yet.

"Where is Zhang Jinzheng?"

Niuda, who led hundreds of surrendered cavalry to forcefully leave the station, killed a small bandit leader who was obviously cultivated with one shot. However, he scolded other bandits trying to escape in the small camp on the spot. "Where is Zhang Jinscale?"

?”

"I only know that his camp is in the front where the fire is the biggest!" Someone begged and cried. "My lord, please spare my life!"

"We are not the official army!" Niu Da shouted loudly and declared boldly. "We are the Putai Army of the Deposed Dragon Gang! We are also rebels! Put down your weapons and wait in the camp for the army to come and collect!"

After saying that, he ignored the other party's reaction and went directly to where the other party pointed.

However, when he rushed in, he found that although the regulations there were far better than other small camps, and there was a huge burning square couch in the middle of the site, it was already an empty camp. It was as if Zhang Jinscale had left early, but Niu Da had

I can only get angry and continue to chase...but I can't find Zhang Jinscale in the camp, so I'm afraid I can only gamble my luck.

Of course, just because Niuda is unlucky does not mean that someone else is unlucky.

Just when Niuda was desperate and dared to break through the camp with hundreds of cavalry and enter the core area of ​​the camp, Guo Jingke led his two hundred horse dealer cavalry from the outer direction and was working hard to sweep the outer camps. He was neither lazy nor lazy.

There was no deliberate pursuit of outflanking.

Then, Leader Guo met Zhang Jinsheng behind a "wall of fire" sweeping across the crop fields.

The two sides met hastily in the wilderness.

Frankly speaking, at this moment, Guo Jingke saw that there were hundreds of soldiers following the opponent under the smoke and fire, and wanted to escape. But he quickly realized that even if he could not capture it quickly

The other party can also follow it calmly and wait until the other party is completely exhausted before launching a surprise attack.

However, Zhang Jinheng reacted one step earlier than Guo Jingke.

"Xiao Guo!"

Leader Zhang shouted loudly and said, "I have nothing to do with you. How can I surrender Cao Shancheng?"

Guo Jingke was stunned for a moment, and immediately told him seriously: "It is Zhang Dalongtou of our Deposed Dragon Gang who dislikes you and massacres the city, and is preparing to clean up the rebel army. What does it have to do with Cao Shancheng?"

Zhang Jinsheng was at a loss for a moment, then silent, and finally spoke: "I don't believe it... but no matter what, for the sake of past kindness, how about letting me live?"

Guo Jingke fell silent... This time it was not that he was shaken again, but that he had two hundred horses of his own and did not dare to fight forcefully with the opponent. He had the intention of avoiding and following him.

So, just wait for the opponent to leave first, drop out, and then call for reinforcements.

"Let's go!"

Seeing the other party's hesitation, Zhang Jinscale thought he had a trick and immediately signaled to the leader of the soldiers.

The latter did not hesitate, and immediately took his leader's war horse, and after a slight evasion, he bypassed the opponent's cavalry in the flat crop field that had been burned by the fire, and continued to move forward.

And Guo Jingke did not hesitate to lead the crowd and prepare to follow.

However, at this moment, suddenly, an army of thieves came out of nowhere, shouting in large numbers, coming from the side and behind. It seemed like they were following Zhang Jinscale, but no matter in terms of speed or march,

The direction was different from that of Zhang Jinsheng's troops. Instead, they passed by the tail of the opponent's soldiers and horses, then stepped on the black dust on the ground, heading to another slightly northwest direction.

This group of soldiers and horses was led by only a few dozen people, but they all carried long spears on their shoulders. They did not run around, but moved forward quickly. It was precisely because of the stability of this head that the broken troops from behind followed.

And there is no collapse.

Guo Jingke was stunned. He wanted to disperse the troops, but he felt guilty for a moment... To put it bluntly, this battle was fought between the Po Tai soldiers and Cheng Dalang's cavalry. How could his two hundred horse dealers and cavalry dare to fight head-on?

Woolen cloth?

"Xiao Guo is still loyal."

After walking through a small ravine, Zhang Jinscale stopped for a moment, looked back, and gave a fair evaluation after seeing no pursuers. "I was too arrogant those days, so I lost his trust..."

The leader of the soldiers just nodded, and then led the horse forward without stopping.

The next moment, the ground suddenly trembled, as if another wave of cavalry was coming from the northeast.

After careful calculation, it can only be that Cheng Zhili suddenly appeared halfway.
Chapter completed!
