Chapter 17: The Yellow Sparrow Follows
The flames were swaying, the smoke was billowing out, and the village was full of wounded and dead.
In the face of the wolf-like Yellow Turban Army, although the people in the village were not afraid of death, they fought desperately against the Yellow Turban Army...... However, the number of the Yellow Turban Army was too much, and it broke into the village from outside the village to the village from all directions like a tide, and the militia in the village was invincible with both fists and four hands, and gradually retreated.
At this moment, Xu Chu was carrying a horse chopping knife and had already rushed out of the village, followed by several clan warriors by his side, and his strength was extremely fierce.
Along the way, the Yellow Turban soldiers rushed out from both sides from time to time to attack, but they were all cut down by Xu Chu with a knife, running from inside the village to outside the village, Xu Chu almost did not slash more than 100 Yellow Turban thieves, like a fierce tiger, no one could stop it.
Despite this, Xu Chu's heart was still extremely uneasy.
What's the use of him being able to fight alone? The inhabitants of the village are suffering casualties all the time, and the militia at the forefront is already showing signs of rout.
At first, he thought that it was the Xuzhou army that came to attack the village, but from his own farmhouse, Xu Chu had already seen that the army was not the Xuzhou soldiers he saw in the daytime, but a brave and warlike army of rogues, all of whom were outlaws...... These rogues apparently wandered to the vicinity, and in order to survive, they started the idea of Zhuangzi's grain and grass.
But they want to survive, but they don't give others a way to live!
Xu Chu gritted his teeth, hating this dim world - officials and soldiers stealing pigs, thieves and murderers, can the sky still give the people a way to live?
Although Xu Chu can fight his way out with his bravery, what should the relatives and friends of the clan in the village do? Do you want to stay here and let these thieves slaughter you?
Xu Chu knew that he must not leave them alone!
By the light of the water in the village, Xu Chu vaguely found the location of the enemy's main general - but saw that in the cross avenue in the village, a well-equipped team of floating clouds and yellow turban soldiers surrounded a man in armor on horseback like a star holding the moon. There is no doubt that it is the leader of the Floating Cloud Yellow Turban Army, Yaksha Heman.
Shoot a man first and shoot a horse first, and capture a thief first and capture the king first! If you want to save the people in the village, there is only one way to kill him!
At this time, He Man was still instructing his Yellow Turban Lieutenant how to carry the trivial matters of grain and straw in the village, when he suddenly heard a terrible scream three feet in front of him, the voice was as miserable as in his ears, and He Man's hair stood upside down.
He Man looked up, only to see the Yellow Turban soldiers in front of him, like saplings that had been cut down, one after another were cut down in a pool of blood, blood was flying all over the sky, and a strong man as big as an ox held a knife in the crowd to split a bloody path, moving towards his place continuously.
The blade of the horse chopping knife seemed to split through the vast night, like a meteor, constantly crashing into the heads of one Yellow Turban soldier after another.
"Stop him for me!! Obstruct! He Man exclaimed.
The torch in the hands of the Yellow Turban Army illuminated Xu Chu's resolute and fierce appearance, in the face of Xu Chu's indomitable momentum, the Yellow Turbans did not have the courage to confront it head-on, who dared to risk their lives to fight with this evil spark.
He Man was in a hurry, and while ordering the Yellow Turban soldiers to block Xu Chu, he pulled his horse and retreated, but the distance between the two was still much closer in the blink of an eye.
Behind him is a wall of his own soldiers, and in front of him is the extremely brave Xu Chu is approaching, and the redundant Yellow Turban soldiers have become a burden blocking his escape route, and He Man at this time has no way to retreat.
At the last moment, He Man was forced to finally make a move: he saw that Xu Chu was extremely brave, and it was difficult for him to deal with it head-on, so he could only take advantage of it......
He Man roared and threw the knife in his hand directly at Xu Chu's front door.
Xu Chu swung his knife and slashed at the weapon thrown by He Man, only to hear the sound of "sonorous", and saw He Man's war knife flying out obliquely, and Xu Chu's body also stagnated, and the castration slowed down.
When everyone was surprised that he threw down the weapon to stop Xu Chu's behavior, He Man actually rolled and crawled, curled up from everyone's feet to 'drill' the Yellow Turban Army behind him...... Further back, in this way, a thick wall of people was re-lined in front of He Man.
He is not afraid of being trampled to death by his own people?
"Phew! Such rats are also worthy of being generals of the first army? Xu Chu saw that the prey in his hand escaped with this kind of indiscriminate means, he was angry and angry, and scolded.
He Man's face turned red when he heard this, in order to avoid Xu Chu, he even fell into the eyes of everyone, and it would spread throughout the three armies in a few days, and then he would become the first laughing stock in the yellow scarf.
"Kill this man for me!!" He Man was annoyed and angry, and he didn't care about any embarrassment at the moment, saying that he would get rid of this evil man with bloody hatred.
Dozens of yellow turban guards holding Pu knives rushed up from both sides, and the Pu knives in their hands were like iron nets woven with pig iron to block Xu Chu's way back, behind Pu Dao, two figures flashed out, but it was several yellow turban archers, each holding a two-stone strong bow, and the bow was aimed at Xu Chu's back, and strong arrows were shot.
Xu Chu didn't look at these people at all, turned around and waved his weapon left and right, blocked the sharp arrow, and then snorted, and his body suddenly rushed ...... His huge body was extremely fast, like a brute bull, and his body was everywhere, and he actually knocked the five people out directly, knocking out a gap in the wall of those Yellow Turban Pudao soldiers.
The yellow scarves led by He Man couldn't help but be terrified...... What kind of monster is this, so difficult?
"What are you doing in a daze? Kill him! Kill him! Let's go together! He Manwan didn't expect to encounter such a tricky character in the farm, and he gave orders hoarsely.
Several Yellow Turban soldiers rushed towards Xu Chu again, and six Yellow Turban soldiers with guns rushed towards Xu Chu from four directions.
Xu Chu did not hesitate, first raised his left arm to clamp the two spears that stabbed over, held the knife in one hand in his right hand, picked up his arm and drew a semicircle of the horse chopping knife, and swept the thousands of troops with a thunderous move, the horse chopping knife cut through the blades of the four spear yellow turban soldiers, and the huge force directly shook them away.
There are no tricks and tricks, pure strength fighting, and two of them were directly shocked to death.
He Man pursed his lips, he never thought that this bone would be so difficult to gnaw!
However, he has now seen that Xu Chu is the leader of this village, and he is also the soul of these residents in the village, even if he can't kill him, as long as he is contained here, the rest of the village is not a problem!
There are only a few thousand people in this village at most, and the old and weak women and children still account for sixty or seventy percent, and the men who can fight with themselves are only more than 1,000 at most, and they have nearly 10,000 soldiers, and it is only time to kill them.
At this time, more and more Yellow Turban soldiers rushed to this side to support from all around, surrounding Xu Chu Tuantuan, not revealing the slightest passage, but only clamping him with blades in all directions......
No matter how brave Xu Chu is, what can he do in this situation? What's the use of him being able to kill him alone?
Xu Chu regarded death as home, and was not afraid, and the saber in his hand slashed forward heavily, and the three Yellow Turban soldiers fell in response.
But at the same time, the Yellow Turban soldiers behind Xu Chu also grabbed the gap at the same time, and several machetes slashed at the empty door behind him, although Xu Chu turned back to block the vital parts, but two knives slashed on Xu Chu's broad arms, leaving two heavy blood marks.
He Man shouted frantically: "Yes, that's it! Sleepy! Trap him! Trap him to death! Don't live! ”
At the same moment as He Man shouted, a heavy horn sounded in the rear of the Yellow Turban Army.
"Woo woo woo ~ ~~!"
The voice was deep and slow, permeating the night sky, and the sound of the horn seemed to contain a strong murderous intention.
He Man's face turned white in an instant.
The sound of a horn made of heavy bronze is all too familiar to He Man...... This horn sound is the unique rhythm of the Han Dynasty's official army marching...... The meaning is simple and straightforward, it stands for - attack!
Now the damn horn sounded in the rear...... What does it represent?
He Man turned his head in horror and looked behind him!
The shield soldiers and halberd soldiers of the Han army were divided into four teams, commanded by two captains and two captains respectively, and the mountains roared and the tsunami pierced the rear of the Yellow Turban Army!
At this moment, the Yellow Turban Army was all thinking about how to capture Xuzhuang, and the food and livestock in the village had already made their eyes red and their sanity faint...... The Han army behind him is like a poisonous dagger that can take the life of the yellow turban in this situation!
The defenseless military formation of the rear door was soon rushed into four sections by the four-way Xuzhou army, and three gaps were opened by force, and the Xuzhou army kept surging into its formation.
In the middle of the Xuzhou army, the potters and Mi Fang observed the battle ahead with torches.
This was the first time that the potters had witnessed a real war: although it was dark and only the torches were illuminated, the battle in the village in the distance still caught the potter's eye.
The blood that made people shudder into the body and the heart-palpitating wails of the people who were about to die made the potter's internal organs seem to be mixed together, and it was extremely uncomfortable.
To put it bluntly, it's a feeling...... Want to throw up...... But as a supervising army, the potter must not be smiling and generous in front of the three armies, and he can't vomit if he wants to.
The potter turned his head and looked at Mi Fang beside him.
Mi Fang barely went to the battlefield for the first time...... He was more angry than the potter and threw up directly.
Looking down at the filth that Mi Fang had spat on the ground, the potter moved his horse to the side.
Stay farther away...... Too dirty, disgusting.
"Brother Mi, in your opinion, what are our chances of winning this battle?" The potter beckoned the soldier with torches to come closer, squinting and continuing to look into the distance.
After Mi Fang finished spitting, she touched her mouth directly with her hand, which caused the potter to frown again.
Mi Fang felt quite good about herself, and said: "Although the Yellow Turban is also good at fighting, its formation has been chaotic, and it is difficult to get out of the village, after all, my Xuzhou Army is a state and county official army, and the ordnance and equipment are far above the enemy, and it is to wait for work, this battle will be a complete success!" ”
The potter nodded, Mi Fang believed this.
Although Mi Fang has very little experience in battle, he should know a lot about the armor battle formation of this era, not to say how studious he is, after all, his family background is there...... The course of the Art of War battle formation should not be able to fall from an early age.
Don't underestimate these military books, the books of this era are precious items, in the era when there is not enough to eat, and the printing industry is relatively lagging behind, books are as precious as gold...... Reading is the greatest luxury of this era!
As Mi Fang said, the Yellow Turban Army's sudden attack on the Xuzhou Army in this state was powerless to fight back.
Seeing He Man's hasty command of the soldiers and horses to turn around to resist the Xuzhou army, Xu Chu's bloodstained face couldn't help but smile miserably.
At this moment, I don't care why those pig thieves came to help me...... The urgency of the delay is to quickly organize the soldiers in the village to recover the decline.
Xu Chu took the opportunity to retreat to the village, found two militiamen covered in blood, and raised his voice: "Let the brothers who can still kill the enemy gather here, and rush forward with a certain family along the retreat of the thieves...... The old and weak women and children moved to the rear of Zhuangzi, don't let them fight on the front line anymore, do it quickly! ”
As Xu Chu's order spread, the militia and women and children in the village were excited, like ghosts who turned around in hell and returned to the yang world.
With the migration of time and the arrival of the Xuzhou army, the soldiers and horses of the three sides were transposed, and the counterattack of Xuzhuang also began.
