Chapter 258: Zhang Xiu defeated Wang Kaizhi

When Zhang Xiu led the cavalry to the rear, the tiger and leopard cavalry led by Cao Cao finally broke into the crowd.

When the infantry of the rear army faced such an ironclad heavy cavalry like the tiger and leopard cavalry, they could not resist the charge of the tiger and leopard cavalry at all, but in an instant, Zhang Xiu's rear army infantry was scattered by the tiger and leopard cavalry.

The tiger and leopard riders who killed into the crowd immediately slaughtered Zhang Xiujun's soldiers.

It didn't take long for Zhang Xiu to lead 5,000 cavalry to finally arrive at the rear army.

When Cao Cao chiseled through Zhang Xiu's rear army and found that Zhang Xiu was leading the cavalry to arrive, he immediately ordered to continue rushing towards Zhang Xiu.

When Zhang Xiu saw Cao Cao leading the tiger and leopard cavalry directly towards him, he immediately ordered the Xiliang soldiers to start riding and shooting.

After receiving the order, the 5,000 Xiliang cavalry immediately opened their bows and arrows and shot at Cao Cao's tiger and leopard cavalry, but unfortunately, Cao Cao's tiger and leopard cavalry were all covered in heavy armor, and the bows and arrows of the Western Liang army could not be shot through at all.

Seeing this scene, Zhang Xiu was very surprised, because he didn't know anything about the situation of the tiger and leopard riding.

Soon, the Xiliang cavalry collided with the tiger and leopard cavalry under the leadership of Zhang Xiu.

As the two cavalry collided head-on, the Xiliang sergeant was killed by the horse lance of the tiger and leopard rider before he could swing his sword and slash, even if a soldier was lucky enough to slash the tiger and leopard rider's soldier, it would not help, because the heavy armor of the tiger and leopard rider was very strong.

After the two cavalry crossed each other, the 5,000 cavalry under Zhang Xiu's command lost nearly 1,000 people at once, and the tiger and leopard cavalry suffered at most 1,200 casualties.

When Zhang Xiu saw that the Xiliang cavalry under his command had lost nearly a thousand people at once, he couldn't believe this result at all, because the Xiliang cavalry was famous for its bravery, but the battle loss ratio after the round of charge just now was completely beyond his expectations.

At this time, Cao Cao also ordered to stop the charge, because the tiger and leopard riders were already a little tired after continuous running.

When the tiger and leopard cavalry turned their horse's head and faced Zhang Xiu's Xiliang cavalry again, the cavalry under Zhang Xiu's command had no intention of fighting, because they were frightened by the tiger and leopard cavalry's charging and killing.

When Zhang Xiu saw that the soldiers under his command had no intention of fighting, he suddenly thought to himself: 'Could it be that I am going to die here today?' ’

Just when Zhang Xiu was stunned, Cao Cao led the tiger and leopard cavalry to kill Zhang Xiujun again.

At this time, Hu Che'er beside Zhang Xiu hurriedly said: "Lord, Cao Jun is rushing over again!" ”

After hearing Hu Che'er's shout, Zhang Xiu came back to his senses and ordered his cavalry to bypass the tiger and leopard cavalry.

After receiving the order, the Xiliang cavalry suddenly stopped rushing at the tiger and leopard cavalry, and they suddenly changed direction and bypassed when they approached the tiger and leopard cavalry.

After dodging the charge of the tiger and leopard cavalry, Zhang Xiu immediately ordered the whole army to retreat.

Sergeant Zhang Xiu, who received the military order, immediately followed Zhang Xiu and began to withdraw the army.

Cao Cao saw that Zhang Xiu wanted to run, and he immediately ordered to stop the charge.

Cao Cao then ordered the soldiers of the Tiger and Leopard Riders to take off their heavy armor and transfer to another horse for a lightly armed pursuit.

After the soldiers of the tiger and leopard riders were replaced, Cao Cao immediately led his army to chase after him.

Soon, the soldiers of the tiger and leopard cavalry caught up with Zhang Xiu's foot soldiers and began to shoot from a distance.

Zhang Xiujun's foot soldiers were shot by the tiger and leopard cavalry, and then immediately scattered and fled.

At this time, Zhang Xiu also saw Jia Xu and said to him: "Wenhe, let's go!" Cao's army is invincible! ”

Hearing Zhang Xiu's shout, Jia Xu also immediately set up his horse and began to flee.

Besides, after the tiger and leopard cavalry completely dispersed Zhang Xiu's footmen, Cao Cao immediately continued to pursue Zhang Xiu.

At this time, there were only more than 4,000 cavalry left around Zhang Xiu.

When Zhang Xiu and Jia Xu saw Cao Cao chasing after him, both of them were a little desperate in their hearts.

Just then, a deafening sound of horses' hooves was heard from the north.

Suddenly hearing the sound of horses' hooves, Cao Cao immediately ordered the pursuit to be stopped, because he had already guessed who the comer was, and the only cavalry of this size was Wang Kai, who occupied Liangzhou.

Immediately after, Cao Cao hurriedly ordered the tiger and leopard rider to change into heavy armor again.

Besides, when Jia Xu heard the sound of horses' hooves coming from the north, he immediately said to Zhang Xiu: "Lord, we are saved!" Hearing this voice, the one who came must be Wang Zhenxi's cavalry. ”

Zhang Xiu also breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this.

At the same time, after Wang Kai led the army to the vicinity of the battlefield, he immediately ordered: "Wei Chi Gong listens to the order, I order you to lead the Flying Bear Army to meet the Cao army." ”

After Wei Chigong received the order, he immediately took the order and left.

Then, Wang Kai led the guards to rush towards Zhang Xiujun.

When Cao Cao saw the cavalry under Wang Kai's command rushing over, he immediately led the tiger and leopard cavalry to meet him.

When Wei Chigong led the Flying Bear Army and the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry led by Cao Cao met with more than 150 steps, Yu Chigong suddenly shouted: "The soldiers of the Flying Bear Army obey the order, and the divine arm bow is shot." ”

After hearing Wei Chigong's shout, the four thousand soldiers of the Flying Bear Army immediately raised their divine arm bows and aimed at the tiger and leopard horsemen.

Because the Flying Bears were equipped with bilateral stirrups and saddles, the Flying Bears stood up and shot sharp arrows at the Tiger and Leopard Riders.

When Cao Cao saw that the soldiers of the Flying Bear Army actually stood up and shot arrows, he was very surprised and said, "Why can this cavalry stand? ”

As soon as the words fell, the sharp arrows of the Divine Arm Bow flew towards the soldiers of the tiger and leopard riders.

When Cao Cao saw the rain of arrows in the sky, he immediately drew his sword and loudly ordered the soldiers of the tiger and leopard riders to block it with their swords, because Cao Cao felt that the feathered arrows shot by the Flying Bear Army were not simple.

As the soldiers of the Tiger and Leopard Rider drew their swords to block the rain of arrows from the Divine Arm Bow, the two soldiers and horses of the Tiger and Leopard Rider and the Flying Bear Army also collided head-on.

After the two cavalry crossed each other, both the Flying Bear Army and the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry suffered nearly 200 casualties, because the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry did not use horse lances and the soldiers of the Flying Bear Army wore chain light armor rather than heavy armor.

Subsequently, Wei Chigong and Cao Cao led the Flying Bear Army and the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry respectively to turn the horse's head.

At this time, Wang Kai led the pro-guard army to meet Zhang Xiu and Jia Xu.

Zhang Xiu and Jia Xu immediately thanked Wang Kai when they saw him.

Wang Kai immediately said: "General Zhang, Mr. Jia, it is not appropriate to stay here for a long time, you can evacuate first, and I will stay to cover you." ”

Hearing Wang Kai say this, Zhang Xiu and Jia Xu's hearts both sprung up with the idea of dying for their confidants, because Wang Kai's actions were tantamount to sending charcoal in the snow to them.

Immediately after, Zhang Xiu immediately replied: "Wang Zhenxi, then we will meet in Champion County!" ”

"Good!"

Immediately, Zhang Xiu led thousands of defeated soldiers to continue westward.

Wang Kai saw Zhang Xiu and them leaving, so he rushed to the place where the Flying Bear Army and the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry were fighting.

After Wang Kai led his troops to the battlefield, the Flying Bear Army and the Tiger and Leopard Riders also rushed to kill each other head-on again.

This time, both sides also suffered more than 300 casualties each.

At this time, Cao Cao also saw Wang Kai's personal guards arrive.

Seeing that he was suddenly surrounded by him, Cao Cao suddenly shouted at Wang Kai: "Wang Zhenxi, did you help the thief flee to rebel against the imperial court?" ”

After hearing this, Wang Kai immediately replied: "Cao Sikong, what you said is interesting, who in the world does not know that your name is Han Chen, you are actually a thief, since you are alone here today, then I will send you on your way here." ”

Cao Cao immediately became a little nervous when he heard this, because his tiger and leopard cavalry was already a little weak after a long run, and in addition to the fact that he had just overestimated the combat power of the Flying Bear Army, the soldiers of the tiger and leopard cavalry were now exhausted.

At this time, Wang Kai carefully observed the situation of the tiger and leopard riding.

When Wang Kai found that the tiger and leopard riders were all wearing heavy armor, he immediately expected that the tiger and leopard riders were already at the end of their crossbows.

Immediately after, Wang Kai shouted loudly: "All the soldiers listen to the order, follow me to kill the Cao thief!" ”

After hearing this, Pei Xingyan, the commander of the pro-guard army, and Wei Chi Gong, the commander of the Flying Bear Army, immediately led the cavalry to kill the tiger and leopard cavalry.

Seeing this, Cao Cao had no choice but to order the tiger and leopard to ride towards the personal guards led by Wang Kai, and he planned to capture the thief and capture the king to solve the crisis.
