Chapter 312: Catch Me!
"Your grandfather Han Sui is here, if you have the ability, you will come to arrest me!"
Ma Sui's voice came from afar to Han Sui, it seems that in order to attract the enemy Ma Xiu directly falsely claimed that he was Han Sui, Han Sui himself wanted to cry and laugh when he heard this: Who would believe that Han Sui's voice would be the voice of such a teenager?
"Chase!" But no matter what, Matthew still played a role, and the enemy cavalry who appeared on the scene were immediately attracted by Matthew's hundreds of people, and immediately galloped towards Matthew.
Han Sui bowed deeply in the direction of the east, and said solemnly: "Uncle nephew, this great favor of yours, I have recorded it in Han Wenyu!"
After that, Han Sui took the rest of Ma Xiu's men and went straight to the southwest.
And neither Ma Xiu nor Han Sui expected that at this moment, Xu Rong had already led seven hundred elite cavalry to guard the road downstream of the river.
"General, there is a team of hundreds of people, and the person at the head claims to be Han Sui himself, and he is coming here!"
The herald Pegasus came to report to Xu Rong, and his tone was surprised and happy, and he was naturally happy that he could catch Han Sui, a big fish here, and after catching Han Sui, he could take it to Dong Zhuo to ask for credit.
What is surprising is that there are only more than 700 people on Xu Rong's side, although the judgment is correct, it is still a question whether it can be stopped.
Xu Rong didn't think about these at all, he rode his horse in front, the golden knife in his hand, standing like a god, majestic, and coldly ordered to the more than seven hundred cavalry: "Don't forget the purpose of our trip, since Han Sui wants to rebel, let's not let him have good fruit to eat, hold this road for me, don't light torches, and wait for the enemy to come to him, and then attack!"
"No!" everyone is worthy of being the elite of Xu Rongzhi who has won a hundred battles under Dong Zhuo, and when he gave an order, no one had the slightest words, they all lined up one after another, extinguished the torches in their hands, held their breath, and waited for the enemy army on the opposite side to come.
Xu Rong naturally would not have thought that the hundreds of people who called themselves Han Sui this time would actually be Ma Teng's eldest son Ma Xiu, who successfully attracted the attention of the enemy troops in the city at this moment, and went all the way down the river, although it was on foot, but it was also running like flying, and his skills were extremely fast, worthy of the title of Ma Jiaerlang.
"Major General, the enemy army behind is getting closer and closer, and you can't get rid of it, what should I do?" The soldiers were not worried about whether they would be able to return to Fufeng alive this time, but if something happened to Ma Xiu here, they would not be at ease even if they died.
While Ma Xiu galloped with the army, he shouted coldly: "Dump them, I didn't think about getting rid of them, if it weren't for that Han Sui to successfully escape, I would be fighting them here now!"
Another soldier looked back at the approaching enemy cavalry and expressed his worries: "But the young general, we are on foot, they are cycling, according to this running method, if you can't get out of the Jincheng territory, you will be caught up, and those generals of Han Sui can't come here to help due to the inconvenience of the terrain, we have three long and two short, young general, you are the hope of the lord's future, you can't make any mistakes here!"
"Crow's mouth!" Ma Xiu glared at the soldier fiercely, if it was usual, he would definitely shoot at the soldier's back, but now it is not usual, and what this soldier said is also reasonable, he just laughed a little, and then said sharply, "I'm not a delicate son, my father sent me here to rescue Han Sui this time, it's just one of the purposes, what really matters is that I come here to be really true* The experience of the gun, if I only panic and flee in distress, isn't it a disgrace to my father and the Ma family?"
Speaking of this, Matthew suddenly stopped running, and the soldiers also stopped: "Major General, what are you going to do?"
"Keep running forward, leaving fifty men behind, and follow me into the midst of the enemy, holding them back on the one hand, and grabbing the horses on the other!"
With these words, Matthew ran almost in the opposite direction of his own people, and the target was the enemy cavalry, which was biting out, and fifty men immediately followed.
Everyone was slightly stunned for a moment, and immediately understood Ma Xiu's true intentions, it is indeed impossible for a two-legged person to outrun a war horse with four hooves, but the way is all thought of, their major general is to create a little disturbance for the enemy, and then take the opportunity to grab the horse and ride it himself, so that the chasing person has no horse to ride, so that he can't catch up at all!
The idea is good, but it is far from being so simple to do, but at this moment, Ma Xiu understands that it is precisely because it is difficult to do that he has to do it, as the future heir of the Ma family, if he retreats and escapes now, then he is not worthy of the surname Ma, and he cannot afford the glory of the prince of the Ma family!
"Kill!" Ma Xiu shouted violently, flew up in an instant, and pulled out the two swords on his waist with his left and right hands, and at this time a horse of enemy soldiers roared, and the spear in his hand had not yet reached the body of this kind of Ma Xiu, and there was a long wound on his neck, and blood suddenly gushed out, dyeing the mane of his sitting horse turned red.
"Hiss" The war horse was frightened, and a man stood up, his front hooves were in the air, and he wanted to fall down on the horses, if he fell down on this pair of hooves, anyone who was afraid would inevitably vomit blood and die.
Matthew was not a strong man, and he did not forget what was most important to him now, so he rolled on the spot, and after the front hooves of the war horse smashed into the ground, he took advantage of the situation to get up, grabbed the reins on the horse, and suddenly took off into the air, and in the blink of an eye, he was already on the horse's back.
The war horse suddenly changed and before he came to his senses, he was going to throw Ma Xiu down, but what kind of character Ma Xiu was, every Ma Jiaerlang began to learn to ride a horse at the age of five, and it can be said that he spent more days on horseback than when he got off the horse and walked.
"Be honest with me!" At this moment, Matthew was unceremonious, his legs desperately clamped the horse's belly, and he took the horse's ass with a horsewhip and beat him crazy* Whipping, whipping and blood, at the same time the other holding a sword leaned over and slashed, the blood mist beside him boiled and rolled, and in an instant there were five or six cavalrymen who were stabbed to the vital point and knocked off their horses, and when their horses saw the master's intentions and wanted to run back, they had already been stopped by Ma Xiu, who was fighting with the enemy on the side, and used Ma Xiu's method, but it was a moment's kung fu, and these fierce war horses were tamed into obedience.
"Let's go!" Seeing that the fifty men under his command had succeeded, Ma Xiu gave an order, leading the fifty people to shout, and then rode his horse back.
After this surprise attack, the enemy army was in a panic, and he didn't expect the other party to be so bold and not afraid of death, and he dared to rush and kill with only a few dozen people.
But the most humiliating thing for them is that their nearly 1,000 cavalry were actually captured by the other party in this way, and they still walked away, which is really infuriating.
"Chase after me, the archers are on standby, if the enemy dares to kill back, let them all die here!"
"No!" everyone replied angrily, how could they have suffered such a humiliation since they followed Dong Zhuo? Even if the top boss didn't say it, they would also take revenge on this shame tenfold and hundredfold!
Matthew ordered the fifty men who had obtained the horses to continue to advance rapidly eastward with the rest of the men, and he picked out another fifty men, and turned back and headed for the enemy troops not far behind him. 02
"Everyone listens to my orders, and the time limit is half a pillar of incense, whether you can grab a horse or not, you will give me a quick return, understand?" Probably knowing that the enemy army was on guard, Ma Xiu ordered sharply to the fifty people who came with him with a solemn face before leaving. 02
"Understood!" each of the fifty men nodded in response. 02
The sky is almost dawn, the eastern sky is beginning to dew, and in this twilight that has not yet arrived, a small but destined tragic battle is quietly staged. 02
"Whoosh!" The enemy cavalry had already discovered the traces of Matthew and the fifty men, or rather, the traces of Matthew's group, who had not concealed their whereabouts at all, so that no matter how unambiguous, wave after wave of arrows rained down. 02
"Major General, the enemy is coming too fast, and there is a rain of arrows opening the way, we can't rush through at all!" Several soldiers tried to sneak attack, but they were all shot back by the dense rain of arrows, and in the blink of an eye, the enemy cavalry had already rushed to the front. 02
Matthew did not move, his side face was generally exposed to a dim and soft hazy light, half of which was hidden in the still dark and blurred shadows, but at this moment, it was calmer than ever, surprisingly calm. 02
"What's the panic? They shoot like this, just to create fear in us, each of them has no more than thirty arrows on their quivers, but just now there are no less than 30,000 arrows, I dare say, they have no arrows in their quivers now!" 02
Sure enough, what Matthew said was right, because the pursuing men and horses were so competitive that they shot all the arrows in their quivers, and because they were in a hurry to get out of the city, they didn't bring spare arrows, and there were indeed no extra arrows. 02
"Hmph, there are no arrows, we still have knives, swords, guns, halberds, ge, spears, and lances! How can we be afraid of these fifty guys who have lost a lot of strength!"
A voice suddenly sounded in the crowd, and soon, everyone became more energetic again, and they all drew their weapons, shouted and cheered, and their morale was like a rainbow. 02
"Seems to be a little interesting!" Matthew also slowly raised his sword, and looked around at his people from left and right and asked secretly, "Is there a half-pillar of incense?"
"Back to the young general, it's still a little bit away!" 02
"Okay, half a pillar of incense is half a pillar of incense, people can't be dishonest, let these guys see and understand, our Ma family is amazing, my Ma Boqi can't just run!
