Chapter 761 [Fierce Fight]
In the middle of the team, Sun Jian and Lin Nan were surrounded by the ironclad army, and when they saw Li Tie staying there in the distance, they all secretly held their breath. Seeing the dense forests on both sides of the road, they all held their weapons and shields tightly in order to respond to the cavalry rushing out at any time.
"Brother Xian, in order to be able to fight in the field, in order to hide my strength, I deliberately didn't let Dong Jun see that I still have an ironclad army, and when I appear in front of them for the first time today, they will definitely believe that this is Brother Xian's Flying Feather Army." Sun Jian whispered to Lin Nandao beside him.
Lin Nan smiled: "It can only be said that my brother's army is well-trained, and it can be confused with the false." However, even the Flying Feather Army may not have such a lineup. ”
"Brother Xian said with a smile, I have seen your Flying Feather Army with my own eyes, and the strength is still above my Iron Armor Army......" Before Sun Jian finished speaking, he saw Li Tie riding a horse in front of him, so he changed his words, "Li Tie is here, it seems that he will fight in a while, and then let Brother Xian see the power of my Iron Army." ”
Lin Nan smiled, didn't speak, and when he saw Li Tie stop, he shouted, "Where is Dong Jun?" ”
Li Tie said loudly according to the discussed dialogue: "Lin Nan, you have been surrounded, please surrender quickly!" ”
As soon as these words came out, Li Dao in the dense forest immediately had a startled face, and immediately saw that the ironclad army stopped, and the spear and shield were unanimous, and he roared angrily: "This brainless Li Tie shouted too early, and it ruined my big thing!" Brothers, kill out, kill Lin Nan and Sun Jian, I have a reward! ”
At the sound of an order, a large number of cavalry were killed in the dense forest on the left, and they rushed towards the official road in the middle, and the shouting of killing resounded throughout the dense forest.
The official road and the dense forest were not far away, and as soon as the cavalry rushed out, they quickly surrounded the ironclad army. In the face of the spears of the ironclad army, they did not appear afraid, but rushed forward without hesitation, brandished the saber in their hands, drove the horses under their seats, and galloped quickly with a fearless spirit.
"Attack!" Sun Jian let out a loud shout. The soldier on the left side of the face began to rush forward, and met the rushing cavalry, and there was a fierce stab.
As soon as the two armies came into contact, the Xiliang cavalry, which was in the front row, became overturned, and both men and animals died under the spears. But before the spearmen could draw their weapons, a second wave of cavalry rushed forward. Some spearmen who didn't have time to retreat were beheaded by the rushing Xiliang cavalry, and blood immediately gushed out of their necks.
Li Tie watched Li Dao and Sun Jian's troops fighting together, so he followed the prior arrangement. He led some of his men into the woods on the right, while the others ran in eight different directions, lighting the fires at the ignition points that had already been prepared, signaling the cavalry in eight directions.
Here, Li Tie and the soldiers took out their weapons one after another and galloped into the woods on the right side of the official road, but found that there was no one in the woods, and Guo Yan's soldiers and horses and Xu Rong's soldiers and horses all disappeared without a trace. He hurried out of the woods again. Send someone to inform Lin Nan and Sun Jian and let them go all out to deal with Li Dao. He himself led the rest of the people and began to attack Li Dao's men.
Li Dao and his subordinates were fighting against the Iron Armor Army, but when he saw that there was no movement in the woods on the right, he was wondering, and suddenly saw Li Tie and his soldiers attacking his tail, and he felt deceived. But he relied on his own 30,000 soldiers and horses, so he did not shout to retreat. Instead, he continued to fight, vowing to surround Lin Nan and Sun Jian.
When Li Dao saw Li Tie attacking his troops, he roughly understood that he had fallen into the enemy's tricks. But he had 50,000 men. There are 50,000 people in ambush here, even if Lin Nan and Sun Jian take counter-encirclement, he still has an advantage in terms of troops, even if he is two enemies and one, he will fight this battle.
"Shoot the arrows!" Li Wei changed his normal habit of charging into battle, rode his horse back into the dense forest, and shouted loudly to the crossbowmen who had already been prepared.
Arrows flew in unison, bowstrings and machines sounded softly, and thousands of arrows shot towards the infantry in the middle of the official road. The arrows pierced through the leather shields of the soldiers on the official road, through the armor of the soldiers, and brought up a puddle of blood, and the soldiers who were in the front fell directly down in a row. Human life withers and falls in this cold moonlit night, and there is no saving at all.
Lin Nan was taken aback, he underestimated the Xiliang soldiers too much, and when the arrows rained down on the soldiers' shields, he realized that the arrows shot from the dense forest were not what ordinary bows and crossbows could do. He clenched the spear in his hand and stabbed at the cavalry in front of him, and after stabbing two cavalrymen in succession, a loud whistle came to his ears, which was the usual code of his Flying Feather Army.
The whistle is melodious and swirling, sonorous and powerful, and the intermittent is also very regular, similar to the chirping of birds, and like the cry of a white ape, the words "There is no one on the right, please concentrate on the left" are clearly blown out.
As soon as Lin Nan heard this whistle, he hurriedly said to Sun Jian: "Brother Wentai! The enemy is only ambushed on the left side of the official road, and there is no one on the right, so please take the power to meet the left side. The enemy's arrows are very tough, and the three shields can be stacked on top of each other, as long as they block this wave of enemy onslaught, it is our chance to counterattack. ”
Sun Jian shouted "yes" and immediately gave the order.
I saw that the ironclad soldiers on the right side of the official road immediately turned around, and the soldiers in the front row quickly folded their shields and three shields together, leaning on their bodies, the people in the front row concentrated on holding the shields, and the spearmen in the back assassinated the cavalry in front.
The arrows shot in the dense forest were very powerful, penetrating two leather shields in a row, and when they encountered the third leather shield, they had already become the end of the strong crossbow, although they were also shot through, but only the arrows were exposed, and they could not penetrate the human body again as before. Moreover, the tough arrows firmly nailed the originally unreliable shield together, making the three shields a seamless one.
In order to improve the speed of the army, Sun Jian abandoned the iron shield wrapped in iron sheets, and chose a leather shield that can block many kinds of arrows, but today he made a mistake. When he saw the soldier who had died in the arrows because of his mistake, a trace of guilt burned in his heart.
Li Wei saw the shield position erected on the official road, and there were many spears that hindered the cavalry's attack, which made the cavalry suddenly afraid, and when he saw the sharp spear, he had to order the cavalry to temporarily stop attacking. turned to kill Li Tie and others who rebelled against him, but let the infantry charge under the cover of crossbowmen.
Lin Nan noticed this trend, and said to Sun Jian: "Brother Wentai, this place is handed over to you, I must command my subordinates, Li Dao has already begun to attack them." ”
Sun Jian untied the ancient ingot knife tied to his waist. Shoved it into Lin Nan's hand and said, "Use a knife in close combat, I'll drag the enemy here, don't worry, brother Xian!" ”
Lin Nan did not hesitate, and held the ancient ingot knife in his hand, only to feel that the ancient ingot knife was very thick, and the handle of the knife was very handy, so he immediately dropped the spear in his hand and pulled the ancient ingot knife out of the scabbard. Carrying the simple and sharp knife, he went out of the battle array.
Li Ji's infantry had already rushed towards Sun Jian's military formation, but Sun Jian's military formation was like a thick wall, and the spears kept stabbing forward in the gaps between the shields and shields, piercing through the enemies who killed one after another, and at the same time, countless arrows were also very densely blocked, only a few arrows flew over the air and shot down a dozen unsuspecting soldiers behind.
The cavalry was rapidly moving westward. On the edge of the western side of the jungle, Li Tie and more than 700 others were fighting bloodily. I wanted to be able to create a little chaos and kill a bloody way directly from the right flank of Li Daojun, but as soon as they started to attack, the infantry on the right flank of Li Daojun's army quickly surrounded them, relying on the human wall, and surrounded Li Tie and others impenetrable.
Blood spilled all over the ground. In an encirclement full of enemies, the superiority of the cavalry suddenly weakened. The infantry armed with spears in Li Dao's army began to use the advantage of the weapons in their hands to press forward step by step, but they saw that the spears were like a forest, and the sharp spear heads shone in the moonlight.
The cavalry on the periphery had already turned on their backs, and their sabers had just cut off the head of an infantryman. The flaws exposed in the body immediately ushered in the assassination of more than a dozen or twenty spears, and one after another the cavalry was killed by the infantry of Li Daojun's army.
"Dismount!" Li Tie jumped off the horse and stabbed the horse in the ass with the saber in his hand.
The horse felt the heart-rending pain, let out a long neigh, and rushed madly towards the crowd in front of him.
The rest of the Flying Feather soldiers followed suit, and the remaining five hundred or so horses rushed out like headless flies outside the encirclement, trampling to death some unprepared infantry.
However, this situation was fleeting, the gap was quickly blocked, and everyone in the Xiliang cavalry not far away was wielding their sabers and howling to kill.
Li Tie realized the severity of the problem, and he was likely to die in battle. When he turned around and saw the people around him, he shouted: "We are all from Liangzhou, we are the best in Liangzhou, we are the elite of the Feiyu Army, show our strength, let these people see, who is the real warrior!" ”
"The brave wins!" The remaining more than 500 people quickly dispersed in a team of ten people, and without anyone's command, they could cooperate with each other most tacitly, in a group of ten people, without retreating, they advanced, raised the saber in their hands, and began to counterattack the enemy who surrounded them, and with a thousand momentum, fearlessly rushed out in different directions, trying to get out of the encirclement.
The blade slid through the neck, and a human head fell to the ground, and the body in front of it suddenly tensed and twitched, letting out a tremble, consuming the last trace of life hidden in the body.
The rapid counterattack of Li Tie and others made the enemy feel a little afraid, looking at these men with hideous faces who were fighting trapped beasts, I don't know why, the soldiers of Li Daojun's army felt a roar of the earth, and the ground under their feet began to shake slightly.
But these soldiers of Li Dao's army knew very well that it was not their cavalry that brought about this strong shaking of the ground, but the thunderous sound of horses' hooves from far and near from the periphery. Then shouts of killing were heard in all directions, and everyone's hearts were shocked: "Are you surrounded?" ”
A little hesitation made Li Tie and the others seize the opportunity, they knew in their hearts that this was the arrival of reinforcements, the arrival of their cavalry team, and the most intense part of the battle was about to take place. The smell of blood in the air made each of them feel great excitement, and they quickly approached the enemy soldiers, slashed the spears stabbed in front of them with their knives, and their companions slashed and killed the infantry with their weapons cut off, and in a short time, the counterattack began to work.
Lin Nan had already rushed over as fast as he could, relying on the sharpness of the sword in his hand, and cut down many soldiers who came to stop him wherever he passed. This time, he was very brave, and although he might be injured again, he saw a trace of horror on the faces of the enemy soldiers. Moreover, the constant shouts of killing in the distance also achieved the purpose of intimidating the enemy.
"Coalition reinforcements are coming, and we are surrounded......" he judged the situation, slashing forward and shouting loudly, so that he could fight his way down. tore a hole in this encirclement that had not yet been participated by cavalry, and soon saw Li Tie and others killed from it.
As soon as they met and didn't say much, Lin Nan immediately turned around and killed back, seeing that the encirclement gradually spread outward from the initial palm-sized place, and there were corpses left in the open space behind them, and they became more and more brave the more they fought.
At this time, Li Dao was still commanding the soldiers to fight in the dense forest, but what he didn't expect was that none of Guo Yan and Xu Rong's soldiers and horses appeared. He didn't know what was going on, and he didn't understand why. He suddenly remembered Li Ru's hearty answer today, and seemed to have sensed something, and there was a burst of grief and indignation in his heart.
"General, reinforcements for the enemy...... Attacks from all directions have surrounded us, and I don't know how many people there are. The scout reported in a panic.
"What's the panic? Our army still has more than 20,000 people, and the enemy army together is only more than 10,000. Even if two fight one, kill them. There is nothing to be afraid of with enemy reinforcements. No matter how much support is provided, it is still those people, the order will go down, and the whole army will fight to the end, whoever dares to take a step back will not be forgiven! ”
Li Wei knew it very well in his heart. This is the same worst-case scenario he had in mind before, the enemy is using a counter-encirclement, encircling them inside. However, he had already suffered betrayal from Guo Yan, Xu Rong, and Li Ru, and if he ordered to retreat at this time, the morale of the whole army would plummet. He can't retreat. He didn't want to retreat, he thought that he still had the capital to fight back, and he could completely counterattack and kill Lin Nan and Sun Jian together.
"Li Ru, Guo Yan, Xu Rong, wait until I kill Lin Nan and Sun Jian, and then I will settle accounts with you when I go back!"
Li Dao's eyes showed a fierce gaze, looking at the ironclad army in front of him who was attacking Sun Jian's remaining more than a thousand people, and shouted loudly: "Rush over!" Kill all these people at any cost! ”
There were no reinforcements yet, although the shouts of killing and the sound of horses' hooves could be faintly heard, but there was still a little time before they arrived here. Therefore, Li Dao's idea was to quickly end the battle with less than 2,000 people left on the official road, and then fully meet the reinforcements.
Li Wei had already lost his patience, the battle had only started for a short time, his men had only lost a thousand people, and he still had 29,000 troops, even if one person spat on a spit, he could drown the remaining 2,000 people. So, he rode forward, walked out of the woods, and shouted to the more than 20,000 people who were still lying in ambush in the woods: "The whole army is attacked, and all the enemies will not be left behind!" ”
The real battle, in fact, has only just begun. In the battle just now, Li Dao underestimated the strength of the other party, thinking that he could besiege and kill him by only sending an equal number of troops, but things were not as he expected. The opponent is very strong, and the combat effectiveness of the soldiers is not at all like the Northern Han Army he dealt with before, so he wants to give the enemy one last attack before the reinforcements arrive, a devastating blow.
"Kill!"
The same sound resounded throughout the woods, and infantry and cavalry continued to pour out of the woods, quickly surrounding Sun Jian's ironclad army, and blocking Lin Nan, Li Tie and others who were about to break out of the encirclement.
"Suffered! The enemy is on the offensive in full force! Lin Nan's heart was secretly shocked, hearing the enemy's shouting and killing at this time, the worried doubts just now were immediately eliminated, and the bloody road he fought hard to fight was quickly blocked, blocking the gradually expanding encirclement again.
"Ahh
A miserable scream sounded in Lin Nan's ears, and seeing the subordinates who kept falling around him, he had an indescribable feeling in his heart. Perhaps, he was too light on the enemy, thinking that this would break up the opponent's formation, and he also thought that this would make the other party feel afraid, but he was wrong, he was no longer facing the miscellaneous soldiers who had no formation at the beginning, but Dong Zhuo's carefully trained troops in Liangzhou.
Due to the geographical relationship, Lin Nan could not absorb a lot of information about Dong Zhuo, and only knew that Dong Zhuo entered Beijing with an army composed of 200,000 Qianghu and Han people, so he didn't know that Dong Zhuo made preparations in order to be able to enter Beijing, and he didn't know that Dong Zhuo was already secretly training troops when he left to kill the Ten Standing Servants. When the brave and warlike Qianghu is trained into a regular army, that kind of combat effectiveness. It can be taken up a notch. This truth is just like Lin Nan training the Wuhuan people to become the Flying Feather Army.
The Feiyu Army, which had more than 500 people, soon had less than 300 people left, and the 300 people were surrounded and impenetrable again, only in the center of the official road, occupying a palm-sized place. There are enemy troops all around, and more enemy troops are emerging from the woods one after another, and this momentum is to swallow people in one bite.
"My lord, the enemy's attack is completely different from before, and the situation that we have managed to reverse with great difficulty has disappeared like this." Li Tie approached Lin Nan, waving the saber in his hand, and the blade had already been chopped. To Linnan Road.
Lin Nandao: "I underestimated Dong Zhuojun's combat effectiveness too much, this is completely different from what we saw two years ago, it seems that Dong Zhuojun's strength is really strong." However, fortunately, there are contradictions within the enemy, and if all 50,000 enemy troops are here, we will not be able to hold out now. ”
"Don't worry, my lord, I, Li Tie, will definitely swear to protect my lord!"
Lin Nan didn't say anything, just waved the ancient ingot knife in his hand and kept slashing. He was already numb to killing, and he would cut down whenever he saw an enemy. Seeing the limbs flying around him and the corpses falling to the ground, he felt like a war machine.
"When you meet on a narrow road, the brave wins! Reinforcements are coming, hold on, victory will always be ours! Seeing that the morale of the people around him was a little low, Lin Nan encouraged.
On the other side of the battlefield. Sun Jian's ironclad army also fell into a bitter battle, and the moment the enemy surrounded it, the square military formation immediately evolved into a circle, and the outer shields were erected. The spears inside kept stabbing and stabbing all the soldiers who came to attack around them outside the formation, and although they were caught in a bitter battle, they were still able to hold on to their positions.
Li Dao used infantry to besiege and disperse the cavalry on the periphery, because of the reinforcements, he could only use elite cavalry to block the attack. However, to his chagrin, the encircled enemy turned out to be so stubborn. Annoyed and angry, he kept waving the spear in his hand and shouted, "Kill, kill me!" ”
The screams were incessant, blood sprayed under the moonlit night, it was impossible to tell whose it was, the corpses were mixed together, the broken weapons fell all over the ground, and the eyes of many people were full of blood, covering the entire battlefield with a layer of blood......
The galloping horses, the arrows that pierced the sky, and the high-pitched shouts, the reinforcements of Lin Nan and Sun Jian finally came, with a majestic momentum and the breath of death, all gathered from all directions, and directly collided with the cavalry arranged by Li Dao on the periphery with rapid attack power.
The cold and shining steel weapons penetrated the bodies of countless enemies, and the Xiliang cavalry wearing iron armor could not stop it at all, and under the leadership of the leading generals Zhao Yun, Tai Shici, Hua Xiong, Cheng Pu, Huang Gai, Han Dang, and Zu Mao, they directly tore deep holes in the enemy army.
In the southeast, Jia Xu, Xun You, and Sun Ce began to shoot around the enemy with a small number of cavalry, and the sharp arrows shot directly through the enemy's armor.
For more than a year, Xun You has been practicing riding and archery while dealing with government affairs, although he is not skilled in arching and horseing, but he can also be used as a leading figure. Jia Xu was born in Liangzhou, and he is relatively proficient in riding and archery, so he can not only lead troops into battle, but also give advice. Of course, if they fight in close quarters, they will naturally be a big difference.
Although Sun Ce was young, he was not willing to be lonely, and it was a great honor for him to be assigned to lead the troops with Jia Xu and Xun You.
The arrival of reinforcements can be described as imposing, and the attacks from eight different directions, like eight sharp blades, were directly inserted into the enemy's body like a bamboo, causing a panic among the enemy troops.
Li Wei saw that the enemy's reinforcements were coming, and had to divide his troops to resist, in his opinion, the enemy army was a rabble, and he definitely did not have an advantage in terms of troops. He firmly believed that the final victory would be his. He saw that the eight openings torn by the enemy cavalry began to slow down, and a smile appeared on his face, and he immediately said, "Surround them, and don't let any of them go." ”
However, as soon as the voice fell, Li Dao saw a hint of an unusual state, and the cavalry that rushed in did not move forward, but began to circle around the circle, running in circles like a millstone.
The cavalry in the front row suddenly tied the spear in his hand to the horse, drew the saber in his waist, brandished the saber, and drove the war horse under the seat to rotate in a unit, while the spear exposed was like a rotating gear, and everywhere he passed, all the soldiers who approached were either cut in the neck or in the chest by the sharp head of the spear. Some of the tall ones cut their bellies and made blood fly, which is the power of the "human flesh grinding plate" that Lin Nan thought. The cavalrymen in the back began to draw their bows and arrows, shooting them at the dense crowd, and also circled around and began to shoot as they ran.
Time. Men and horses were either knocked down by arrows or cut by spears......
Li Dao had never seen such a way of fighting, and he found that the cavalry he had arranged on the periphery to intercept the enemy's reinforcements fell one after another, and he had no ability to fight back at all, and he was defeated and retreated unconsciously.
"How so?"
Before he had time to think more, Li Dao saw that the enemy's cavalry was retreating under his subordinates, and began to stop the action just now, and instead gathered into four cavalry and began to attack from both sides of the official road. The other two cavalry were distributed on the outskirts of the dense forest and began to attack him through the dense forest.
The battlefield became chaotic, and there was the sound of people turning their horses everywhere, and the area within a radius of less than three miles began to become very crowded, crowded with people, crowded, and people were unable to move except for those on the periphery, who could move freely. However, they had to face two small encirclements inside. The enemy inside poses a direct threat.
Inside, there are enemies breaking out, and outside, enemies rushing inward. Li Daojun has fallen into internal and external troubles, and even Li Dao has fallen into extreme self-blame. He never imagined that his forces were obviously superior, why would he still be really surrounded by the enemy.
At this time, Zhao Yun and Hua Xiong raised their swords and guns together, like two hungry tigers out of the cage, and led the cavalry behind them to directly kill a bloody road. dispersed all the soldiers who surrounded Lin Nan and Li Tie at the tail, and rescued Lin Nan and Li Tie who were surrounded.
"Lord, my subordinates are late to save the car, please punish the lord!" As soon as Zhao Yun saw Lin Nan, who was already a bloody man, he immediately shouted.
Lin Nan waved his hand. said: "Don't lock me up, continue to kill in, be sure to take off Li Dao's dog head!" ”
"No!"
This encirclement was lifted, and Tai Shici, Cheng Pu, and Huang Gai pounced and rescued Sun Jian, who was surrounded in the first part. At the same time, Han Dang and Zu Mao on the left side of the dense forest were killed, and on the right side, Jia Xu, Xun You, and Sun Ce were not to be outdone, and surrounded Li Dao's army in a narrow strip, so that Li Dao's army couldn't run.
Li Dao had lost his rationality, became completely angry, raised the spear in his hand, took the soldiers around him, and shouted loudly: "Rush with me, we have many soldiers and few enemy soldiers, don't be frightened by the enemy's formation." ”
However, the chaos on the edge had already fluctuated the entire army, and the morale of more than 20,000 people was very low the moment the reinforcements arrived.
Li Dao knew this very well, but he would not have reinforcements, so he could only go and kill the enemy general. He rode his horse with a gun and shouted "dodge", and the originally congested road immediately flashed a long and narrow road, and he ran towards Tai Shici, who was at the front of the first part, and shouted: "Come and eat me with a shot!" ”
A halberd opened a bloody path. Wherever the halberd passed, the blood of the enemy splattered everywhere, like bright red plums blooming in the air.
The people on the horse were wearing iron armor and steel helmets, with a hideous expression on their faces and kept shouting "kill", and their hands holding halberds kept shaking on the left and right sides of the war horse.
Surrounded by dense enemies. Behind him, his subordinates hadn't kept up, and Tai Shici was trapped in a deep siege to fight. With a wave of the halberd, blood gushed out, killing all the enemies around the horse, making the enemy dare not get close within his attack range, and he was stunned to occupy a place in the enemy's encirclement.
"If you don't want to die, stay away!"
With a loud shout, the sound was like thunder, and the surrounding enemies were frightened to take a step back.
Suddenly, he saw a gap open for the enemy, and an enemy general on a tall horse and armed with a spear galloped through the gap. He glanced at the people who rushed over, was overjoyed, and secretly exclaimed, "Great, it's Li Dao." ”
"Someone will shoot me!" Li Dao galloped quickly through the gap between the many soldiers, and when he approached the enemy general, he shouted violently.
Tai Shi Ci squinted at Huang Gai and Cheng Pu under Sun Jian's army behind him and led the troops to kill, so he shook his spirits, clenched the halberd in his hand, and shouted at Li Dao, who was running towards him quickly: "Tai Shi Ci is from the east, I just want to take you today!" ”
With a loud shout of "driving", Tai Shici patted the horse and galloped out. Stepping on the corpse of the enemy soldier in front of him, he galloped towards Li Dao.
All the soldiers dodged a path at this moment, as if something was tearing through the middle, and at both ends of the road, two horsemen were walking in the opposite direction, preparing for a summit duel.
Two horses intersect. The two riders shot at the same time, both softening their life's lessons in weaponry, and both were ready to unleash their heads-up skills against each other in an attempt to end the fight in between rounds.
In the midst of the lightning, the two riders swept past each other, and the weapons in their hands made a fierce "Zheng" sound, and the faces of both of them showed confident joy.
When the two horses parted, everyone was shocked, and they didn't even see what it was all about. While the sound was still swirling in the air, a spear flew high in the night, and the knight on one of the horses was gone.
The spear fell to the ground, the war horse neighed, Tai Shi Ci held the halberd in one hand, and immediately stood among the ten thousand armies, and the blood flowed down the halberd uncontrollably, dyeing his entire arm blood-red. His eyes widened. With a few drops of blood on his face, under the cover of night. It became even more hideous, and shouted loudly: "Come up to those who are not afraid of death!" ”
Time seemed to stand still, and Li Wei's subordinates all looked at Tai Shici in amazement, forgetting that they themselves were still on the battlefield, and forgetting that the enemy was still fighting the periphery, and they were shocked to find out. His own general was actually hanging on Tai Shici's halberd, and the whole person was lifted high in the air, and he didn't move, he didn't even scream, and he was already dead.
"Retreat!"
I don't know who suddenly shouted this clear word. I saw that Li Wei's subordinates scattered in a hurry, and they broke through to the west, and all the people panicked, as long as they could leave the place where people were left, as long as they could go back alive, they didn't care how sinister the front was.
The defeat was like a mountain, and the sudden decline in morale was like an infectious disease, which quickly spread to the surroundings, and after an uproar, the entire Li Dao army was boiling, not to kill the enemy, but to escape. The soldiers who were fighting with the enemy at the very edge had not yet figured out the situation, so they were pushed out by the people behind, either crashing into the enemy's weapons, or being trampled to death by their own people behind, and about 20,000 Xiliang soldiers lost control because they lost their main general, and the situation on the battlefield was once again reversed.
Lin Nan, Zhao Yun, Hua Xiong, and Li Tie were all on the official road to the west, and they were killing inside, but they saw that the people surrounded by them were desperately surging outward, and the momentum like a flood was unstoppable.
"What's going on?" Lin Nan and the others were forced to retreat straight back by the Xiliang soldiers who suddenly rushed over, and he didn't know the situation yet, so he hurriedly asked.
"It's Tai Shici, he killed the enemy general Li Dao, and the Xiliang soldiers were defeated." Zhao Yun held the saddle with both hands, stood straight on the horse's back, looked ahead, and saw Tai Shici's halberd carrying Li Wei's corpse, so he hurriedly replied.
"Get out of the way, let the Xiliang soldiers pass, and let the soldiers cover up on both sides of the road." Lin Nan saw that these defeated Xiliang soldiers had become extremely brave in order to survive and break out of the encirclement, and their strength was indeed inferior to these Xiliang soldiers, if they blindly blocked it, they were likely to be swallowed up by this group of Xiliang defeated soldiers.
As a result, the road leading to Bishui Pass was opened, and the soldiers of the Feiyu Army, who were originally blocking the official road to the west, immediately dodged on both sides of the road and covered up on both sides of the road.
As soon as the road was opened, the Xiliang rout had to run forward as if they were dead, and the cavalry and infantry all had no formation, risking the killing opportunities brought by both sides of the road at any time, they ran forward desperately, as long as they ran back to Bishui Pass, they could survive.
The flood-like Xiliang rout quickly ran away for more than half of the time, and when there was still the last small part left, Tai Shici rode over on a horse, carrying Li Wei's corpse behind him, half of his body was already stained red with blood.
"Lord, I killed the enemy general!" Tai Shi Ci proudly showed off.
Lin Nanchong Tai Shi Ci smiled and said, "Very good, this time you are the first meritorious." Now, please lead your subordinates to rush over with me, the Xiliang army is defeated, the enemy is demoralized, and it is a good opportunity to seize Bishui Pass. ”
"No!"
As soon as the words fell, Lin Nan took Zhao Yun, Tai Shici, and Hua Xiong, and led about 5,000 cavalry to bite the tail of the Xiliang rout, covering all the way.
Li Tie rode backwards and found Sun Jian's location behind, and saw that Jia Xu, Xun You, Sun Ce, Cheng Pu, Han Dang, Huang Gai, and Zu Mao were all gathered together, so he jumped off the horse. He took out the ancient ingot knife, walked straight to Sun Jian, and arched his hand: "General Sun, this is what my lord asked me to hand over to the general, and my lord said that he is very grateful to the general." My lord is now chasing the defeated soldiers, and I hope that General Sun will leave some people to clean up the battlefield and lead the rest of the cavalry to rush to Bishui Pass. ”
Sun Jian took his ancient ingot knife, and immediately turned around and said, "Zu Mao, Bo Fu, you lead all the infantry to stay, and the rest of the people all get on their horses, follow me, and attack Bishui Pass." ”
"No!"
Lin Nan pursued Zhao Yun, Tai Shici, Hua Xiong and 5,000 cavalry all the way, killing many Xiliang infantry and some stragglers one after another. However, the distance between the Xiliang cavalry and the infantry has widened, after seeing this situation, Lin Nan left Tai Shici to lead two thousand cavalry to intercept the Xiliang infantry on the road, and he took Zhao Yun, Hua Xiong and three thousand cavalry to cross the infantry blocking the road in front of him, and directly pursued the Xiliang cavalry, striving to take the opportunity to capture the city gate when the Xiliang cavalry entered the pass.
After the troops were separated, Lin Nan, Zhao Yun, and Hua Xiong quickly caught up with the Xiliang cavalry, and when they saw a pass city not far away, their hearts were extremely happy, and they quickly whipped towards the Bishui Pass.
The Bianshui Pass has long been empty, and the grain, grass, money, weapons and equipment in the pass have all been moved away as long as they can be moved, leaving only an empty city. The gate of Bishui Pass was wide open, and the Xiliang rout soldiers galloped into the pass as if they were dead, and when they saw that the pass was empty, they were all shocked.
Just when they were panicking, they saw the words "Retired Tiger Prison" posted all over the walls, and the cavalrymen who knew how to write shouted loudly. Therefore, everyone did not dare to stay here, and went straight through the Bishui Pass and headed towards the Tiger Prison Pass.
Lin Nan and the others pursued to the bottom of Bishui Pass, and when they saw that there was no defense on the city, and the Xiliang cavalry did not stop, they fled directly through Bishui Pass, and immediately felt very puzzled.
Galloping into the city, Lin Nan shot to death a Xiliang cavalry in front with a bow and arrow, and saw the words "Retired Tiger Prison" posted on the wall, his brows furrowed, and his heart was abrupt: "Could it be that the enemy deliberately let out the Bishui Pass?" ”
He couldn't figure out why, but since he could be sure that there were no enemies in Bishui Pass, Lin Nan led his subordinates to continue to pursue the Xiliang cavalry, hoping to kill a little more.
He left Hua Xiong and a thousand soldiers to garrison Bishui Pass, and he and Zhao Yun continued to pursue with two thousand cavalry.
As soon as you get out of the water pass, the road ahead suddenly opens up, and there are endless fields as far as the eye can see. Lin Nan, Zhao Yun and others pursued about three miles again, and killed hundreds of Xiliang cavalry with arrows, and when they were about to continue the pursuit, they saw a biao soldiers and horses standing in front of them, all the soldiers were armed with torches, and all the soldiers were cavalry, and they lined up in a row, leaving only a small intersection for the defeated Xiliang cavalry to escape.
The firelight flickered, and under the night sky, the cavalry was like a fire dragon lined up, and a large flag embroidered with the word "Xu" fluttered in the faint night wind. Directly in front of the army, a general with a full body draped in his hand held a big sword, rode his horse and walked a few steps forward, and shouted loudly at Lin Nan and the others who were pursuing: "Stop when you come, and if you dare to pursue, you will definitely be wiped out."
