Chapter 367 Retaliation
Meng Yang, who laughed and returned to the vicinity of the Ketan City Gate, glanced around and saw that there was no trace of Tang Tianxing's original hiding place.
Regardless of whether Tang Tianxing knew that this was an opportunity deliberately created for him by Meng Yang, he would never let it go.
Due to Mengyang's sudden rise, the defenders on the other side of the city bridge were attracted most of their attention. Then the opposing general ignored him and even ordered the firing of arrows even when his own soldiers were present.
In the end, Meng Yang was fine, but many of his own soldiers were killed and injured. For a moment, everyone's hearts were shaken, and they had no energy left to observe the situation nearby.
What Meng Yang did here was instructed by Chen Ze, who naturally watched the entire scene through the system, and the person who stopped Meng Yang in time was Guo Zi, who possessed General Zhang Fei.
That loud roar not only reminded Meng Yang to stop his attack, but although it did not use military skills, it also made more Zheng Yuanyun's soldiers feel frightened and frightened them severely.
The combination of the two created such a large gap. If Tang Tianxing could not sneak out of the city, he would be in vain for the trust Luo Zongbing and Chen Ze had placed in him.
And did Tang Tianxing know that Chen Ze was secretly helping him?
He... naturally knows.
Just as Meng Yang retreated to the city gate, from behind the defenders' camp, a sharp arrow seemed to come from the nine heavens, roaring and roaring, and the end point pointed by the arrow was exactly the person who ignored him.
A general who orders the release of arrows when the friendly troops are alive or dead.
The arrow was cunning and strange, and it came from a rear that no one expected. The general had no chance of evading it.
Just when they heard the sharp roar, everyone was still looking for where the sound came from. Then they heard a pop, and the arrow shot directly through the thick armor of the general. It went in from the back and came out from the front.
Toya pierced the chest directly from the back of the heart!
"Uh...uh uh uh uh..."
The general looked down in disbelief at the bloody arrow tip that suddenly grew out of his chest. He couldn't figure out why he was hit by this arrow.
Isn't this... in our own rear area?
"Enemy...enemy attack!"
When they saw the commander being attacked, the soldiers guarding him were horrified. They hurriedly helped the commander who had fallen off his horse, shouted loudly, and looked around for the direction of the arrow.
"Who shot the arrow?"
Some people stared around, but all they could see were confused faces.
There are naturally more soldiers in the rear, but that arrow is just one arrow. Now I want to find the person who fired the arrow among so many soldiers...
Is it an enemy attack?
Question marks pop up in many people's minds.
Or is it the action of someone behind him who was angry that he did not distinguish between ourselves and the enemy and ordered the shooting of arrows?
Could any of the soldiers killed by the arrows be the brothers or dead friends of someone behind?
Is it revenge?
No one believed that people from the other side would sneak into their own camp. That arrow was said to be an enemy attack, but rather... revenge!
The people on Zheng Yuanyun's side thought so, and the search for the person who fired the arrows also slowed down significantly.
Being able to have such an idea shows that many people also resisted the order to shoot arrows. It was just that someone hiding in the dark did something they wanted to do but did not dare to do.
So, do we still need to search carefully?
However, this was only the thought in the minds of the soldiers on Zheng Yuanyun's side. As for Meng Yang's side, they knew very well where the arrow came from and who fired it.
It's Tang Tianxing.
This arrow, in addition to Tang Tianxing himself being dissatisfied with the order to fire the arrow, also conveyed a meaning to Meng Yang.
He knew very well that what Meng Yang did before was to create opportunities for himself.
This arrow was not so much a sign of dissatisfaction with the general's actions as a way of thanking Meng Yang.
"This guy is a bit interesting."
Throwing away the corpse in his hand, Meng Yang clapped his hands as if nothing had happened, and smiled at Guo Zi beside him.
"It's me, I have to give him one too!
Guo Zi curled his lips and looked scornfully at the general on the other side of the bridge who was hit by an arrow and fell from his horse without a sound. He said coldly: "If you kill even your own people, who will die if he doesn't?"
Soldiers despise the most cold-blooded generals who don't care about the life and death of their subordinates. Of course, at best they are called cold-blooded, at worst they are worse than pigs and dogs!
No one would feel sorry for such a person if he died. Even Guo Zi himself secretly remembered that person's face in his heart. If Tang Tianxing hadn't taken action first, Guo Zi would never let him go if there was a chance in the future!
"Let's go, brother said there's no need to waste time with them here."
The two sighed for a while. Guo Zi patted Meng Yang on the shoulder and stopped paying attention to the chaos on the other side of the bridge. He laughed and said, "We brothers haven't had a drink for a long time. Let's get drunk tonight!"
…………………………
In the dense forest more than thirty miles outside Ketan City, Gu Qingfeng held his breath and silently followed a person.
As he expected, Xiao Du used a fully dispersed formation when arranging the messengers. No, this couldn't even be said to be a formation, they were just fighting on their own.
There is no doubt that the one Gu Qingfeng has been following is Xiao Du.
This person is both the chief of the scouts and Zheng Yuanyun's most trusted confidant. He is also responsible for all the arrangements for the messenger, so the possibility that he will have a token or token on his body is naturally very high.
Gu Qingfeng did not forget the scene when Zheng Yuanyun handed the token into his hand, not to mention Chen Ze's order.
Chen Ze didn't want to let go of Xiao Du.
In addition to being the one who caused him to lose a lot of military exploits in vain, this person was also one of Zheng Yuanyun's eyes, and his ability had been proven.
In fact, in addition to the dispersed formation for safety this time, when Chen Ze instructed Chen Ming to remove the sentries outside Dongping City, he was also deeply impressed by the scouts he arranged.
The locations Xiao Du laid out were all extremely hidden and unimaginable. If it weren't for the systematic radar-like scanning, it would have been impossible for Chen Ze to find and annihilate all the scouts.
With such ability, if Xiao Du is let go this time, he will definitely be a great help to Zheng Yuanyun in the future, so he will take advantage of this opportunity to get rid of him.
Gu Qingfeng had been following him for so long. At first, there were many people around Xiao Du. The farther he walked, the fewer people there were. Until finally, after everyone dispersed, the only one Gu Qingfeng had been staring at was Xiao Du.
one person.
He was not worried that the others would be lost. With Wang Ping's military skills, the other three hundred or so people were as eye-catching as beacons, and they could see clearly no matter where they went.
In short, it's too late to kill this person first and then catch the others.
