Chapter 938: The battle between two and three (Part 1)
Chapter 938 Two and three battles between Li and Li (Part 1)
Chapter 936: Two and three battles (Part 1)
Qin Shuang is Xiong Ba's eldest apprentice. His rebellion caused the Liang army to suffer great losses. As the master, Xiong Ba must bear a certain responsibility.
But after all, Xiongba has been based in the Liang Army for many years and has made great achievements. He even brought back new grains for the Liang Army. Therefore, although Qin Shuang's rebellion will cause him to be severely punished, he will not die immediately. .
But if all three of Xiong Ba's disciples rebelled, then Xiong Ba's crime would be even more serious, and it was very likely that Dong Zhuo would be defeated and executed directly.
Nie Feng and Bu Jingyun had always dreamed of killing Xiongba, but now that a great opportunity was in front of them, they were surprisingly calm.
Qin Shuang couldn't help but feel a flash of disappointment in his eyes when he saw this. He knew that although the two junior brothers hated Xiongba deeply, they respected Dong Zhuo immensely. Hatred alone obviously could not make them betray their loyalty.
“Senior Brother, you were the one who said at the beginning that although Dong Gong seemed to be violent, he was actually working for the benefit of the people and was one of the wise men who could be followed. But now you have taken the initiative to betray Dong Gong.”
At this point, Bu Jingyun's eyes were full of struggle, and he asked in a deep voice: "Elder brother, is that really what you are saying? Or have you been just lying to us all along?"
Qin Shuang couldn't help but fell silent for a while after hearing this, and then said in a deep voice: "Junior Brother Feng, Junior Brother Yun, even if we each have our own masters in the future, you will always be my good brothers, Qin Shuang."
Hearing this, Feng Yun looked at each other in tacit understanding, but they both saw sadness in each other's eyes, and then shouted: "Kill."
Fengyun rushed towards Qin Shuang together. When Mo Ya and Bai Feng saw this, they immediately joined forces to stop Nie Feng, while Qin Shuang fought with Bu Jingyun with fists.
Although Bu Jingyun was at a higher level than Qin Shuang, Qin Shuang's Tianshuang Fist restrained Paiyun Palm, so the two sides fought dozens of moves in a row without making a single move.
Seeing this, Bu Jingyun showed no mercy. He mobilized all his inner strength to his right hand, then slammed out a palm and shouted: "Cloud-dispelling palm, the clouds are gloomy."
Seeing Bu Jingyun use the last move of Paiyun Palm, Qin Shuang's eyes flashed with solemnity. He immediately crossed his hands and danced across the sky, shouting: "Tian Shuang Fist, Aoxue Ling Shuang."
The fists and palms collided, causing a wave of air to rise immediately. Their chests tumbled, and then they were knocked back by the huge recoil force at the same time.
Bu Jingyun took five steps back before releasing all his strength. He looked at Qin Shuang in disbelief and said in shock: "Ancestral Dragon Jue? Are you from the Qin family?"
Bu Jingyun, as one of the commanders of the Liang Guards, has naturally fought against members of the Jinyi Guards, and among them there are also young disciples of the Qin family, so of course he knows the Qin family's signature technique, Zulong Jue.
It's just that the people Bu Jingyun met before were not of high level, and the Ancestral Dragon Art he practiced was obviously incomplete, far less powerful than what Qin Shuang used. Only then did Bu Jingyun guess Qin Shuang's origin.
Qin Shuang took six steps back and then said in a deep voice: "Junior Brother Yun, you guessed it right."
After hearing Qin Shuang's affirmative answer, Bu Jingyun finally understood why the senior brother rebelled. He was a spy sent by the Qin family to infiltrate the Liang army from the beginning.
Bu Jingyun's eyes were filled with the anger of being deceived, and he said bitterly: "You have been lying to us from the beginning, telling us what conspiracy you have."
“Junior Brother Yun, I have my own difficulties, but I am sincere to you and Junior Brother Feng!”
But Bu Jingyun couldn't listen at all, and said angrily: "If you don't say anything, I'll beat you until you do." After saying that, Bu Jingyun pushed his palm again and rushed towards Qin Shuang, but Qin Shuang also clenched his fist and fought without fear. .
Although Qin Shuang's cultivation level is not as good as Bu Jingyun's, the Ancestral Dragon Art is the most top-notch technique in the world, and its level is still higher than Xiongba's three-point returning vitality. Relying on the Ancestral Dragon Art and Tianshuang's ability to restrain the Cloud Dispelling Palm Qin Shuang actually fought to a draw with Bu Jingyun, who had reached the half-step master level.
Outside the north gate, Yuan Shu sent Lianpo and additional troops to continue the fierce attack after Zhao Kuangyin entered the city.
As for who among the princes is most eager for credit, it is not Yuan Shao or Qin Hao, but Yuan Shu who has been making a fool of himself since he only joined the coalition.
Yuan Shu has suffered heavy casualties since joining the alliance, but not only has he not gained any benefits, but his reputation has been hit.
If he doesn't make up for this with meritorious service, then this alliance will really be in vain, so Yuan Shu is also eager to make meritorious service.
Hearing that Zhao Kuangyin had invaded the city, Yuan Shu immediately danced with excitement. In his opinion, his brother-in-law's contribution was his own.
If he can take the first step in conquering Luoyang, it will not only make up for his previous shortcomings, but also increase his reputation to a higher level, so Yuan Shu will naturally work harder.
Seeing that although soldiers and horses continued to pour into the city, they still failed to completely capture the north gate, Yuan Shu knew that there must be a stalemate in the city. After all, the Liang army had a lot of troops at the north gate.
If the fight continues like this, it will become a war of attrition. Yuan Shu controls most of Yuzhou. Although he is rich and powerful, he is not stupid and generous, so he immediately sends someone to ask Qin Hao for reinforcements.
“Reported that Zhao Kuangyin, the governor of Runan, has invaded the north gate of Luoyang and is currently fighting the Liang army in the city. Yuzhou Mu requested the leader of the alliance to send Yuan Junbo to support.”
This news exploded like statistical thunder among the princes. No one expected that Yuan Shu could attack Luoyang alone, and he had already opened the gate of the North City.
Seeing Yuan Shu's shameless victory in breaking through the entire army, he did not mention Qin Shuang's contribution at all. Although Qin Hao knew the reason, he did not directly point it out in public. After all, he still expected Yuan Shu to continue to contribute.
“Li Cunxiao, you lead 10,000 Jingzhou troops, 10,000 Yanzhou troops, and 10,000 Yangzhou troops, a total of 30,000 troops to support Beimen.”
As soon as Qin Hao finished speaking, Li Cunxiao stood up excitedly, cupped his fists and said, "No."
Yuan Shu already had an army of 40,000. Now Qin Hao has added 30,000 to him, for a total of 70,000. There is also Li Cunxiao, a peerless general. Even a war of attrition is enough to bring down the Liang army.
Liu Xiu stood up at this moment and said: "Alliance leader, since the north gate has been breached, can we withdraw the troops from the other three gates so that we can concentrate on attacking the north gate?"
Qin Hao glanced at him and said with a faint smile: "Although the North Gate has been breached, it has not been completely occupied, and the Liang Army still has sufficient strength. They will definitely take back the North Gate at all costs, and the next step is the real battle. fighting.
Therefore, not only can the remaining three gates not be withdrawn, but they must increase their troops. This can contain the coalition defenders at the three gates and prevent the Liang army from allocating more troops to support the north gate. Luoyang will be defeated sooner or later. "
Liu Xiu thought deeply for a moment and found that there were no loopholes. He could only say, "The alliance leader is wise." However, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart. Qin Hao's consideration of the problem was really flawless.
