When Zhang Ren received Ma Xiang's victory, he was shocked. He knew that Jia Long was not the kind of person who would be scared away. This was obviously a trap and Ma Xiang was in danger. He wanted to send someone to call Ma Xiang immediately, but it was too late. His people had not been sent out yet. Ma Xiang had already arrived.

When he heard that Ma Xiang was surrounded, Zhang Ren knew that the big thing had gone, he immediately ordered to retreat to Mianzhu City, but Zhao Chu refused. Ma Xiang was his good friend and the trusted leader of these rebels. He was now surrounded by Jia Long and was in danger. How could he not save him? No matter how Zhang Ren explained, Zhao Chu refused to listen, and finally took his subordinates out of the city.

Zhang Ren sighed to the sky. He finally knew why Liu Xiu repeatedly told him before leaving, and deliberately in front of Ma Xiang and Zhao Ge. Now he finally knew that Liu Xiu was not worried about him, but these two people who didn't know what the war was going on.

Zhang Ren thought about it and gritted his teeth, leaving a thousand people to defend the city, and he followed the remaining four thousand people. Instead of chasing him like Zhao Ge, he kept sending scouts to the front to find out the news and strictly controlled the speed. The reason was that you are running with all your strength now, so how can you have the strength to fight? Only by preserving your physical strength can you save Ma Xiang.

The rebels reluctantly accepted this reason, maintained their formation and did not run around in a swarm. After running for ten miles, they received the first unfortunate news. Ma Xiang was killed by Jia Long, and Jia Long reorganized his team and ran away again. After running for ten miles, news came again that Zhao Ge was also surrounded by Jia Long and was now trying to break through.

Zhang Ren held the war horse, pondered for a while, ordered to speed up, and sent a light cavalry to the battlefield, ordering them not to fight with Jia Long and just swim next to them.

Jia Long played the pretext of wanting to get, killing the horses first, and then surrounding Zhao Zhi. When the scout came to report, Zhang Ren personally led more than 4,000 people to come quickly. Jia Long was a little surprised, but he immediately understood Zhang Ren's intention. Zhao Zhi and others were just trapped, and it would take a certain amount of time to kill all of these more than 3,000 people. He would also suffer a certain amount of casualties. After two fierce battles, the soldiers' physical strength would naturally be exhausted. When Zhang Ren arrived, it would inevitably be a hard battle.

Moreover, when Zhang Ren rushed over quickly, Zhao Ju had hope. The trapped beasts still fought, which would cause him greater casualties.

As he expected, the light cavalry sent by Zhang Ren quickly arrived on the battlefield. They did not fight with the alert arranged by Jia Long, but used the speed of the cavalry to run around the battlefield, shouting loudly, telling Zhao Zhi's reinforcements trapped in the middle to arrive immediately. Be sure to hold on. When Zhao Zhi heard the news, his morale was great and formed a simple round formation. He fought back to back, shoulder to shoulder, and desperately.

Jia Long sighed regretfully and ordered his full attack without leaving any spare force.

The soldiers who had just killed Ma Xiang were full of morale and launched waves of fierce attacks. Under their attacks at all costs, although Zhao Ge tried his best to resist, his combat power was limited after all. After the defensive formation was broken, he soon lost his fighting will and was slaughtered by Jia Long.

As soon as Zhao Ge's head was cut off, Jia Long ordered his retreat before he even had time to clean up the battlefield. When Zhang Ren arrived, they only saw corpses everywhere, most of them were rebels wearing yellow turbans. There were also some Yizhou troops in the middle, but the number was very small.

Zhang Ren was not in a hurry to chase him. He knew that the two consecutive defeats had caused these ordinary people to lose confidence. It was a blessing to chase him at this time. It was a blessing to be able to scare Jia Long away. He ordered the rebels to examine the bodies separately to delay the time. At the same time, he sent someone to report to Liu Xiu and ask him to prepare for emergency treatment.

...

Liu Xiu jumped off his horse and walked quickly to Gan Ning. Before he could speak, he reached out and grabbed Gan Ning's wrist. "Xingba, how about it?"

Gan Ning opened his eyes with great difficulty, and his eyes that were somewhat distracted stayed on Liu Xiu's face for a moment, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "General, you... are here."

"Well, I'm here." Liu Xiu's heart was shocked. Seeing Gan Ning's injury like this, he must have been very injured, and he might even die at any time. When he turned his head, Wang Zhi rushed over immediately, reached out to put Gan Ning's pulse door, and waited for a while, he said anxiously: "General, hold him tightly."

Liu Xiu held Gan Ning in his arms, Gan Ning leaned softly on Liu Xiu's shoulder, his breath was disordered, and his eyelids kept falling down like a big stone. Wang Zhi grabbed the clothes behind Gan Ning with both hands and winked at Xu Qian. Xu Qian pulled out the ring knife, held the knife in both hands, stood in a T-step, shouted lightly, and the long knife flashed, Gan Ning's body was divided into two pieces of blood-stained brocade clothes and armor at the same time, revealing his bloody back. The crisscrossing wounds turned outward, revealing white flesh. The bones could already be seen in many places, and the scars on the bones were clearly visible.

Wang Zhi took out the silver needle, took a long breath, and used the needle like the wind. He stabbed more than a dozen silver needles on Gan Ning's back in one breath, and stretched out his hand: "Wine comes!" At the same time, he looked at Liu Xiu. Liu Xiu understood and reached out to pinch Gan Ning's mouth, folded the corners of his clothes, and stuffed them into his mouth.

Gan Ning whined twice and shook her head weakly. Wang Zhi took the wine pot from Pang De's hand, took a big mouthful in his mouth, and then sprayed it all on Gan Ning's back. Gan Ning screamed by the severe pain, raised her neck, widened her eyes, and bit Liu Xiu's clothes tightly, and slapped Liu Xiu's back with both hands.

"Okay." Wang Zhi wiped the sweat from his forehead and said with lingering fear: "This kid's life is strong enough. As long as he survives the next two days, he should not die."

Liu Xiu breathed a sigh of relief and hugged Gan Ning tightly in pain until he calmed down slowly. Gan Ning's injuries were too serious, but what was even more fatal was not the wounds - these wounds looked horrible, but except for the broken ribs, they were all skin and flesh injuries - the fatal one was wounds. There was no real anti-inflammatory medicine these days, and there was no good way to deal with this kind of trauma. Most of them depend on everyone's luck and whether they can withstand it. Good luck, even if there is no good piece of meat, you can survive. If you are not lucky, you can get tetanus if you break a hole in your finger. However, with this kind of strong alcohol anti-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory, and with the care of medical experts like Wang Zhi, the possibility of Gan Ning's survival has increased greatly.

"Xingba, you are the first priority!" Liu Xiu took out a handkerchief to wipe the sweat beads from Gan Ning's forehead, and gently patted Gan Ning's cheek, "Recover well. When the injury is healed, I will let you be the General of the Central Army!"

"Thank you General!" Gan Ning gasped weakly: "I have a reluctant request."

"Are you worried about your brothers?" Liu Xiu smiled faintly: "I know that they are all good, I will not forget them. Those who died in battle, those who are disabled, those who are given preferential treatment, and others will be rewarded. They will definitely not treat them unfairly."

"Don't you thank the general?" Gan Ning rolled up his eyelids and looked at the young men around him. The young men were overjoyed and quickly knelt down to thank Liu Xiu. Liu Xiu signaled them all to get up, and Gan Ning said again: "My unhappy request is not this."

"and you……"

"I want to... gather these brothers around me and build a personal guard camp, called Jinyiwei. Please forgive me."

Jinyiwei? Liu Xiu was stunned and thought that this name was a bit evil, but it was quite appropriate for Gan Ning. The teenagers around him were not all Jinyiwei. He pondered for a moment. It was natural for Gan Ning to have a personal guard camp since he became a general of the Central Army. However, Gan Ning's meaning was obviously not as simple as establishing an ordinary personal guard camp, because some of these young men who made meritorious can be granted the title of Duwei. No matter how bad the ones are, they are at least a military marquis, and the team leads them. Let such people be the personal guards, and not one or two. It is easy to make taboos.

However, Gan Ning had a tragic price this time and made great contributions. If he had not fought to the death with his life, but had Jia Long escaped back to Luocheng, his trip to Yizhou would have been basically ruined. If he did not agree to him at this time, it would have been difficult to soothe people's hearts, especially the hearts of these young men in brocade. Liu Xiu weighed for a moment and nodded: "Okay!"

"Thank you, General!" Gan Ning struggled to get up, and Liu Xiu gently pressed him down. He smiled and said, "You should recuperate well, otherwise you, the Jinyiwei, will have no commander. Not only do you have to get better, but you can't leave hidden dangers. There are still many wars to fight in the future."

"Don't worry, General, I... can't die." Gan Ning grinned and smiled silently.

"General!" Guo Jia led two soldiers with anxious expressions to come over. When Liu Xiu saw his face, he knew something was important, so he comforted Gan Ning again, and then stood up and followed Guo Jia to the side. Guo Jia didn't care about being too polite. Before Liu Xiu asked, he whispered: "Jia Long killed Ma Xiang, Zhao Ji."

"What?" Liu Xiu was shocked and could hardly believe his ears.

Guo Jia signaled the messenger sent by Zhang Ren to come over and told Liu Xiu in detail what happened. Liu Xiu was furious when he heard this, and almost cursed Ma Xiang, saying that Zhao Ji should die. He repeatedly told them not to think they were self-righteous and stay away from Jia Long. This would be great. In just half a day, they let Jia Long eat five or six thousand people. Now Zhang Ren has only 4,000 people left, and his morale is low. Once Jia Long recovers and turns back to attack, Zhang Ren will definitely not be able to resist.

Liu Xiuqiang pressed his anger and quickly thought, "Where are Jia Long and Zhang Ren in now?"

"Jia Long is about thirty miles away from here, and Zhang Zhengwei is fifty miles away."

"Go back and tell Zhang Ren to be careful and not be attacked by Jia Long, it is best to keep him far away." Liu Xiu waved his hand: "Ja Long has used the rifle twice this time, how can he know he will not use the third time? Safety first, guard Mianzhu. If we want him to take back Mianzhu, we will be in vain."

Although the messenger didn't know what the retaliation was, he roughly understood what it meant, nodded repeatedly, and rode away. Liu Xiu turned around several times between the hillsides, and finally stood in front of Guo Jia: "Fengxiao, come find Park Hu and the others."

Guo Jia asked someone to find Park Hu and others. When Liu Xiu told Zhang Ren about the situation that he had just reported, Park Hu's face changed immediately, and the faces of the Langzhong tycoons also became very ugly. This Jia Long was too cruel. Five thousand people went back and forth several times, and severely injured Gan Ning's 800 young men and swallowed 6,000 rebels. Gan Ning was seriously injured, Ma Xiang and Zhao Ji died in battle. Can the more than 3,000 people here stop Jia Long? I'm afraid that even if I win, it will be a terrible victory.

"I want command." Liu Xiu looked at Park Hu and others and said word by word: "If you don't want to die under Jia Long, give me the command of everyone."

Park Hu and others looked at each other, and Guo Jia's eyes flashed, and he wanted to speak but stopped!!!
