Listen to the strings and you'll understand!
Hearing Zhuge Mu's words, Zhang Liao and Zhang Xiu had no objections.
At first glance, rescuing Zhang He and pacifying Jizhou might be two different things, but the three people present knew very well: The two were basically the same thing.
Suppressing the rebellion and supporting Zhang He were not contradictory.
With the chaos in Jizhou, the isolated Zhang He would definitely be defeated!
Zhang He was defeated, the foreign cavalry went south, and Jizhou was even more chaotic!
But the crux of the problem was which of the three would be in charge of suppressing the rebellion and which would be in charge of providing support to the north.
Zhang Xiu looked at Zhang Liao, but he didn't say anything.
But as a general, he was inclined to go north.
Of course, there was another important reason: Having just been used by Cao Cao, he urgently needed to prove his worth to Cao Cao.
In the end, suppressing the rebellion of those insignificant small families in Jizhou could not compare to the illustrious military achievements of expelling the Hu Krupp.
Zhang Liao naturally noticed Zhang Xiu's gaze.
"Shu Zhi, leave the matter of suppressing the rebellion of Zhongshan Kingdom and Bohai Kingdom to me!”
"In addition, I'll transfer another seven thousand cavalry to you. Otherwise, it'll be too much for you and General Zhang's eight thousand troops to go north.”
Zhuge Mu did not reject Zhang Liao's good intentions.
Because he, like Zhang Xiu, also needed to prove himself on the battlefield.
If he couldn't seize this opportunity to make a contribution, he might not even have the chance to follow Cao Cao to the south when Cao Cao attacked Jingzhou and Jiangdong next year.
"Wenyuan, thanks!"
Zhuge Mu thanked Zhang Liao sincerely.
Zhang Liao couldn't stand Zhuge Mu's pretentiousness. He pointed at the Bingzhou cavalry behind him and said,""If you really want to thank me, then bring my men to the border battlefield and make contributions.”
"Let those Xianbei Hu cavalry know…"
"The wolf cavalry of Bing Province that rampaged through the north of the desert have returned.”
As he spoke, Zhang Liao glanced at Zhuge Mu, who was riding a Red Hare with a halberd hanging from its back, and sighed.
"So similar!"
In the end, Zhang Liao led 3,000 wolf cavalry and rushed towards the Kingdom of Zhongshan.
……
Five days later.
Ping City.
Finally, after forcing the Xianbei cavalry to retreat, Zhang He stumbled against the wall, using the wall to prevent himself from falling.
His breathing was as rough as a phoenix's, and large beads of sweat could not help but drip down his cheeks.
Zhang He turned to look at the Vice General, Zhang Zheng, who had lost an arm a long time ago. A trace of guilt flashed in his eyes.
"Brother, brother might have miscalculated!”
"I've caused you to die here with me today.”
Facing the crazy attack of the 200,000 Xianbei soldiers, even a famous general like Zhang He couldn't hold on for more than 20 days.
At this moment, there were only 5,000 soldiers in Ping City.
It was impossible for five thousand soldiers to survive today.
Moreover…
Zhang He looked into the distance at the Xianbei army that was gradually gathering…
He knew that in less than 15 minutes, the enemy would once again organize tens of thousands of troops to attack Ping City, where the Han army was stationed.
As for reinforcements?
At this moment, Zhang He no longer had any hope!
This was because the two Han camps he had set up as the corners of Ping City had already been destroyed by the Xianbei army two days ago.
In other words.
At this moment, he was the only one left on the northern border of Jizhou.
"What are you saying, brother?"
"Hehe, I have never regretted it since the day I joined the army with my brother.”
Zhang Zheng came to Zhang He's side with a sword in his left hand. He did not address Zhang He as a general as usual.
"Brother, can you promise me one thing before you die?" he asked Zhang He.”
"Tell me, brother. As long as it's within my means, I'll agree to anything!”
Hearing Zhang He's words, Zhang Zheng grinned.
" Brother, you've always been the one who led us on the battlefield. We can only see your back as you charge forward, but today…"
"I want you to see our backs!”
"Otherwise…"
As Zhang Zheng smiled, tears flowed out of the corners of his eyes.
"Otherwise, I'm afraid that I'll see your figure fall…"
"I won't be able to resist turning around and running!"
As he said this, Zhang Zheng carried his sword and walked towards the north gate of Ping Cheng, which was completely dilapidated and made up of corpses.
That was where the Xianbei army was focused on.
Once the enemy arrived, the soldiers without walls would definitely die.
Behind Zhang Zheng, the Han soldiers also stood up and walked towards the north gate with their halberds in their hands.
Looking at the soldiers, Zhang He's heart trembled.
Because he recognized the identity of those soldiers!
Those people were the soldiers he had recruited from Hejian!
At the same time, they also had a famous name!
Halberd Warrior!
As they advanced, a young soldier holding a halberd turned around. His armor was riddled with holes.
The smile on his face was extremely brilliant.
"General, the Hejian men didn't embarrass you!”
After the young soldier finished speaking, he walked past Zhang He.
Then, the halberd warriors looked at Zhang He.
"General, you must survive!"
"As long as you are still alive!"
"The halberd warrior is still here!"
"General, forgive us for not being able to accompany you any longer.”
"If there is a next life!"
"I'm willing to draw my sword and fight for the general again."
"General, please stand here…"
"Watch our final battle!"
"Have you ever lost the glorious reputation of the halberd warrior?”
“……”
"General!"
"Don't cry!"
