Chapter 128 Third Brother, I’m here to help you!
"Ji County is surrounded!"

"What a good thing!"

"Do you have any good ideas?!"

In the Ji County government office, Zuo Chang, who held a high position, had no intention of looking at the dancer Ruming Peihuan. He was so anxious that he was sweating profusely and paced back and forth in worry. He could only look to his partner with pleading eyes.

Liangzhou Beijia, who was the leader of Zuochang, pursed his lips and refused to say a word.

"hateful!"

Zuo Chang was so angry that he shouted, picked up the teacup, and smashed it at the head of the Liangzhou Beijia. The officials of the prefecture and county all shrank back and dared not speak. Only the newly recruited minor official spoke up.

"Lord Zuo, why don't you go and ask for help?"

"!"

Zuo Chang was like a drowning man grabbing a raft to survive. He hurriedly said to the clerk, "Okay, okay, it's only in times of crisis that we can tell who the hero is! I'll give you a good horse and a piece of fine armor. I hope you can bring reinforcements to help me break the siege of Ji County!"

Before the clerk could react, two soldiers rushed in from outside the door and forcibly carried the clerk away despite his objections.

Outside the city, tens of thousands of Qiang people led by Wang Guo and Song Jian surrounded Ji County tightly.

They have been besieging the city for several days.

Song Jian asked worriedly, "Brother Wang, do you think there will be any Han people coming to help Ji County?"

"Han people? We are not afraid of them. However, we should be wary of Zhang Yide's several hundred cavalrymen. The rest of the people in Hanyang County are nothing more than ground into powder."

Having said that, Wang Guo couldn't help but shiver when he mentioned the three words "Zhang Yide". Through the efforts during this period, they defeated the Han army in Hanyang County and successfully reduced the fear of Liu Bei and Zhang Fei in the hearts of the Qiang people, so that their morale would not drop quickly at the sound of the other side's shout. What's more, Zhang Fei had only a few hundred people. As long as they guarded against night attacks and didn't let the soldiers flee, then even if Liu Bei came, they would not be without the ability to fight!
"Report! General Wang, General Li, a minor official rushed out of the front gate of Ji County and has been captured by us!"

"Report, General Wang, General Li, just when the front gate of Ji County was opened, dozens of cavalry rushed out from the north gate. We were not prepared and some of them escaped."

After listening to the reports from the two messengers, Wang Guo flew into a rage, "Traitor Zuo Chang! How dare you play tricks on me now!"

"It seems that Zuo Chang thinks we are too kind." Song Jian said with a gloomy face.

The two looked at each other and issued military orders.
"Order the entire army to attack the city!!!"

"Captain Zhang, the county seat of Ji County is just ahead!"

"Understood, you step back."

Zhang Fei looked solemn. The situation was extremely unfavorable to him. Even though he had followed Fa Zheng's idea and notified all the counties in Hanyang County before rescuing Ayang County, he still failed due to Zuo Chang's interference. As a result, the people did not have time to retreat. The Qiang and Hu army, having learned from the last lesson, no longer attacked the city directly. They almost left out every village on the road and robbed everything they could. More importantly,
Why hasn’t Zilong arrived yet?
Taishi Ci, who was on the battlefield for the second time, looked at Zhang Fei and asked, "Third brother, what should we do now?!"

“What should I do?”

Zhang Fei thought about it while looking at his troops. The thousands of soldiers he got from Gai Xun were mostly infantry. Even though they were wearing leather armor from Jincheng and their weapons looked brand new, their combat effectiveness was nothing compared to their comrades brought from Youzhou.
"There is."

Zhang Fei made a decision. He said to Taishi Ci, "When marching and fighting, food and grass are very important. Ziyi, would you like to go with me to test it out?"

"Third brother, I am willing to go with you!"

"it is good!"

Zhang Fei instructed his personal guards and infantry to stay put for the time being and wait for him and Taishi Ci to test the waters before making any plans.

"drive!"

The whip hit the horse's butt hard. The warhorse felt the pain and neighed, then immediately ran away carrying Zhang Fei, galloping like an arrow from a bow.

Taishi Ci whipped his whip and chased after them. More than 400 riders started to move. The sound of horse hooves became one continuous sound. The wind blowing in their faces made their battle robes rustle.

Swooping down from the hillside, Zhang Fei and Taishi Ci led more than 400 cavalrymen and galloped across the vast plain like lightning. Even when facing tens of thousands of Qiang people, none of the 400 cavalrymen were afraid.

The black spots that could only be seen on the hillside quickly magnified in the eyes of the knights. They were the nervous and frightened faces of the Qiang and Hu people.

charge! charge!

The more than 400 riders had no extra thoughts and just chased Zhang Fei's back. There was only one thought in their minds: obey Captain Zhang's order and charge!
However, Zhang Fei raised his hand and shouted, "Share!"

The four hundred cavalrymen received the military order and pulled the reins one after another. With Zhang Fei at the head, they spread out in a cone shape to both sides, forming a V-shape.

The reason was simple. This time the Qiang and Hu people had learned their lesson. They scattered caltrops on the ground and set up chevaux de frise.

Fortunately, Zhang Fei was quick-eyed and responded quickly.

But, you can't come here in vain.

Zhang Fei took out his crossbow and shouted, "Crossbow, shoot!"

More than four hundred riders took out their crossbows, and with an angry shout, a "click" sound was heard, and the crossbow arrows were shot out. Four hundred crossbow arrows gathered into a black shadow and attacked the Qiang Hu.

The Qiang and Hu people had no time to take out their shields to defend themselves, and they fell to the ground wailing after being shot by arrows.

But Zhang Fei did not dare to fight. He would not make the same mistake as the Qiang and Hu. Cavalry relied on high mobility. If they were surrounded and dragged into a quagmire, it would be fatal. They were only light cavalry, not heavy cavalry. Their best fighting style should be harassment.

Zhang Fei ordered a retreat.

Just at this moment, an arrow flew across Zhang Fei's face, and he turned around in shock.

yes.
Qiang Hu cavalry!

At least several thousand riders.

A cavalry attacked from the left, and the arrow was shot by the leader of the Qiang Hu!

Although he missed the target, Zhang Fei was still secretly shocked. Logically speaking, the Qiang and Hu cavalry had already been scared away by his elder brother. Where did these people come from? Wait, they don't seem to be a group of people?

Zhang Fei whipped his horse again and again, and the speed of the warhorse reached its limit. However, the group of Qiang and Hu cavalrymen were closely following them, and arrows were attacking them from time to time.

Fortunately, Taishi Ci was very skilled. He turned around and shot an arrow at the arm of the Qiang Hu archer. The archer felt pain and even his horse riding slowed down, not to mention his ability to shoot arrows.

But the situation remains grim.

Do you want to lead the infantry there?

Just as Zhang Fei was thinking, he suddenly saw dense black shadows appear at the end of his sight.

That is--

Zhang Fei's pupils widened to their maximum.

A flag embroidered with the word Zhao!
Familiar sounds entangled with unfamiliar tones rushed into my ears along with the wind.

"Third brother, I'm here to help you!"

"General San, I'm here to help you too!"

Two handsome and extraordinary generals came into view.

Zhang Fei laughed and said, "Zilong, I have been waiting for you for so long!"

He turned his head and shot the crossbow arrow.

The Han cavalrymen's eyes were stern.

This means
"Turn around and kill!"
