Jiang Qin, who was only focused on chasing Gao Shun, was completely unaware that he had been led into a dangerous area where entry and exit were prohibited.
At this time, Gao Shun, who was running ahead, suddenly reined in his horse, stopped, turned around, and pointed his spear directly at Jiang Qin.
Jiang Qin sneered, "Why, you know you can't escape, and you plan to fight to the death?"
Gao Shun said strangely, "You are right, but you are the one who wants to fight to the death, not me."
Hearing this, Jiang Qin was suddenly surprised. He looked around and saw that this was actually a canyon pass.
Staring at the smiling Gao Shun, Jiang Qin said bitterly, "Damn it, I fell into a trap!"
As soon as he finished speaking, archers from both sides of the canyon came out, aiming cold arrows at Jiang Qin and his party. Behind them, Zhang Liao appeared with a group of cavalry.
"Haha, General Jiang Qin, why don't you dismount and accept surrender. My lord, the King of Chu, always treats prisoners well." Zhang Liao said with a smile.
Gao Shun also said: "Yes, General Jiang Qin, if you don't surrender, I'm afraid today will be the day you die!"
"Really? You think I, Jiang Qin, am the kind of person who is greedy for life and afraid of death!" Jiang Qin's expression returned to normal. He knew that he was in a desperate situation, but he became fearless.
Zhang Liao said: "Of course we understand that the general is not a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death, but because of this, the general should surrender to my lord all the more. You know, my lord admires heroes like the general the most."
"Hmph, you should give up your thoughts of asking me to surrender as soon as possible. I only recognize one lord in my life, and that is King Xiangyang, not Liu Ke!" After Jiang Qin finished speaking, he raised his sword and came to fight Gao Shun.
Seeing that Gao Shun failed to persuade him to surrender, he winked at Zhang Liao and then fought fiercely with Jiang Qin.
¡°Ding ding!¡±
After dozens of rounds, Jiang Qin was sweating on his forehead. Gao Shun's strength was beyond his expectation. He was by no means Gao Shun's opponent. If he continued fighting, he would die in his hands soon.
On the other side, murderous intent flashed in Zhang Liao's eyes, and he led the cavalry behind him to charge against Jiang Qin's 5,000 Jingzhou Army.
Under the iron cavalry, the Jingzhou Army suffered heavy casualties. In just half a stick of incense time, all 5,000 Jingzhou Army were destroyed, while Zhang Liao's side only lost three cavalrymen.
This is the restraint between arms. On the frontal battlefield, the strength of cavalry will always exceed that of infantry.
At this time, Jiang Qin was also lifted off the horse by Gao Shun. After rolling on the ground a few times, Jiang Qin slowly stood up.
Hearing this, Jiang Qin laughed and said, "What a joke, I, Jiang Qin, can only die in battle, and I will never live in an ignoble way!"
"Qiang!"
Hearing a crisp sound of a sword being unsheathed, Jiang Qin pulled out the sword from his waist and slashed it across his neck without hesitation.
Thick blood flowed from the bloody mouth on Jiang Qin's neck, telling the world about his unyieldingness.
Zhang Liao and Gao Shun silently watched the scene in front of them without saying anything.
Jiang Qin is indeed a hero, but it is a pity that each one is his master and the soldiers are fighting against each other!
"Hey, General Gao, cut off Jiang Qin's head. We will still need it for the next siege. When the war is over, we can bury him properly." Zhang Liao sighed and said.
Gao Shun dismounted and cut off Jiang Qin's head. Then the two of them led the army to Fancheng.
Above Fancheng, many Jingzhou soldiers saw that Jiang Qin had not returned yet, and they couldn't help but speculate that something had happened.
At this moment, the sky outside the city was filled with smoke and dust, and the deafening sound of horse hooves sounded in unison. The Jingzhou troops in Fancheng climbed to the parapet to watch.
"Call!"
Zhang Liao stopped his horse and asked Gao Shun to pass the head on Jiang Qin's neck. He raised it high above his head and said loudly.
"The defenders on the city, please listen carefully. I'll give you half an hour to think about it. If the time is up, those who still don't surrender will suffer the same fate as this man!"
As he spoke, Zhang Liao shook Jiang Qin's head.
When the defenders on the city saw this, they all started talking in low voices.
"Have you seen it? It seems to be the head of General Jiang Qin!"
"What does it look like? It's obvious that General Jiang Qin has been killed."
"The general is dead, what should we do?"
"For the present plan, the only way to go is surrender."
Everyone said something to each other, and the final decision was to surrender to Kaicheng. Even Jiang Qin died.If we can't hold on, there will be no point. In the end, our lives will be in vain.
"Squeak."
With a sharp sound, the gates of Fancheng slowly opened, and all the defenders in the city surrendered. Zhang Liao's shun soldiers easily captured Fancheng, known as the gateway to Jingzhou, without any bloodshed.
"Wenyuan, Fancheng has been captured, what should we do next?"
Gao Shun asked.
Zhang Liao thought for a moment and said, "Let's make the next goal, Xinye!"
"Xinye? Is it possible that Wen Yuan plans to take down the entire Nanyang County?" Gao Shun asked in surprise.
"Of course not, I only plan to capture a few cities near Fancheng, Xinye, Anzhong, Rangxian, Nieyang, Jiyang, and Yuyang." Zhang Liao explained.
"But Wen Yuan, have you ever thought about it. Although Sun Ce led 150,000 troops to attack Chaisang, they were all navy troops. Jingzhou's army has not yet used a single soldier. Once Sun Ce reacts and uses a large army to surround us, It¡¯s dangerous.¡±
Gao Shun reminded.
However, Zhang Liao already had a countermeasure for this. After ordering someone to bring over a map, he pointed at several places on it and preached.
"General Gao, look, Fancheng is on the border of Jingzhou and passes through Yuzhou. In addition, Xinye and other six counties surround Fancheng, just like a strong fortress."
"Hiss!" Gao Shun took a breath and said with some surprise; "Wenyuan, you want to use the terrain to defend Fancheng in order to deal with the Jingzhou army that will invade in the future."
Zhang Liao smiled and said, "Yes, only in this way can we block the future attack of the Jingzhou army. The longer we delay, the more beneficial it will be to Chai Sang's war."
"Okay, then do as you say, Wen Yuan." Gao Shun supported after thinking about it.
After that, Zhang Liao and Gaoshun left some troops to garrison Fancheng, while he led the cavalry and trapped troops to sweep the surrounding cities.
The general of Xinye was named Sun Ping. Faced with the sudden enemy force, he was killed by Gao Shun's gun before he could respond.
As for the remaining five counties, under the offensive of the trapped camp, none of them could last for a quarter of an hour. The city was broken almost instantly, which shows the power of the trapped camp.
In this way, Zhang Liao and Gao Shun conquered seven cities in a row in just one afternoon. The news quickly reached the ears of Sun Quan who was stationed in Xiangyang. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
