Chapter 169: Li Yan

Wei Xianfeng Fenwei general Deng Zhanzheng rode a horse to inspect the main formation, saw Tian Xin's array a mile away, and said to the left and right personal horses: "It is said that Tian Xiaoxian has the courage of ten thousand people, and his people even boast that his swordsmanship is unparalleled in the world. If I am the one who does, it is nothing more than a false or false thing. ”

For example, before the war, it was said that the Han army was brave, and the Wu army was weak and could be bullied. But Wu Jun Ma Zhong shot Huang Zhong, Ding Feng broke through the battle to cut Yinhua, and he knew that there were people in Jiangdong, and he couldn't take it lightly. ”

"It's Jing Yi's army, Huang Zhong is unprepared for the enemy, Li Yan retreats from the battle, and Guan Yu even leads an army of 50,000 to run for his life in the starry night, which shows that his name is not worthy of his name."

As he was talking, he saw Tian Xin riding a horse, and Deng Zhan's military Sima shouted: "General, those who ride the majestic horses out of the battle, must be Tian Xiaoxian himself!" ”

At a distance of more than 400 meters, Mondo only needs to charge ...... Twenty-five seconds.

Deng Zhan held the reins in his left hand and held a spear in his right hand and shouted excitedly: "Good come!" ”

"Soldiers! Greet me ......"

Deng Zhan kicked the horse's belly hard, at this time Mondo rushed to a hundred meters away, Deng Zhan's voice was also long, the surrounding knights had not adjusted the queue, and some knights didn't even have time to turn around, more than 100 horses were piled up together, and the yellow horse under Deng Zhan's seat only ran out of more than 20 steps, which was just a warm-up.

In Tian Xin's eyes, all the Wei knights were a head lower than themselves! All the war horses of the Wei army were flustered and retreated in the face of Mondo!

In the rapid charge, all the Wei knights seemed to be sluggish and rigid, and in Tian Xin's eyes, only the enemy generals wearing golden helmets and armor remained.

Not a single Wei knight stopped him, and even the mounts couldn't stop retreating in fear.

Before Deng Zhan could adjust the direction of the spear in both hands, the sturdy Mondo staggered past Deng Zhan three steps away.

The moon lance held by Tian Xin's right hand was precisely against Deng Zhan's throat, and in an instant, Deng Zhan's neck was cut off by the stable, high-speed blade, and a head wearing a heavy gilt helmet was rushed up by blood pressure two or three feet, and he rolled to the ground, while the yellow horse ran forward with the headless, bloody corpse.

As if frightened by Mondo, the yellow husd ran seven or eight paces before turning his head and running towards the queue of Wei knights, wanting to return to the group.

The speed of Mondo's charge did not decrease, and the Wei infantry in front of him scattered in a hurry, and one after another the Wei army was knocked down, and if he was lucky, he was knocked down, and if he was unlucky, he was knocked three or four steps away, and if he was not good, he was trampled by Mondo's iron hooves, and his flesh and blood turned into mud.

The sun and moon lance is only aimed at one-third of the infantry's neck, and it is easy to pierce, cut, cut, and detach without affecting the posture of holding the lance.

"Run for your life!"

Tian Xin single-handedly chiseled through a battalion of loose infantry formations, only sixty or seventy zhang thick, about fifteen or sixteen rows of soldiers in front and rear, and the infantry of this battalion threw away their armor and fled to the two wings.

When Tian Xin turned around, only a few of the more than 100 knights of the Wei army rode horses to chase after him, and the speed of the horse was not mentioned, he kicked the horse's belly lightly, and Mondo's four hooves accelerated to the limit.

Behind the Wei knights, the cavalry governor Jiang Liang had already ridden his horse first, and more than 500 horsemen followed closely behind, rushing towards the Wei army.

Tian Xin's speed is extremely fast, and in the blink of an eye, he encounters the enemy cavalry, and no matter how many cavalry hedges, there will always be only two or three cavalry on the opposite side that can attack you, so there is really nothing to be afraid of!

The sun and moon lance was slightly raised, almost indiscriminately indiscriminate, penetrated, cut, and cut the necks of the two Wei knights, whose heads hung at strange angles on their left or right shoulders, and blood spurted from the broken necks of their immediate bodies.

When he was about to stagger, Tian Xin's left arm turned to the left upper part of the Japanese lance and stabbed a Wei army official in the face, Meng Duo ran forward, the lance twisted and turned, and the lance blade cut and turned in the opposite door, and as Mondo carried Tian Xin away, the lance blade was withdrawn by itself.

The military officer in the middle lance was unresponsive, allowing blood to bubble from the huge wound on the front door.

Mondo turned around again, when Tian Xin was about to charge, the Wei knights kicked the horses and beat the horses desperately, Tian Xin heard the sound of horses' hooves behind him, so he galloped forward and stabbed the head of the golden helmet Deng Zhan on the ground, and the moon lance cut off the yellow-edged and white-background 'Wei Fenwei General Deng' battle flag that had just been erected.

Tian Xin's left arm held the sun lance high, Deng Zhan's golden helmet head was raised more than two pieces high, and the right arm carried the moon lance to rush towards another relatively stable Wei infantry array again, this array of more than 500 people immediately avoided him, and the formation was instantly scattered.

Like a tiger entering a flock of sheep, Tian Xin rushed back and forth, and the Wei infantry array dissolved.

Jiang Liang rode more than 500 cavalry to charge, and more than 2,000 people under the command of General Deng Zhan collapsed, lying in ambush on the ground, dead and wounded.

As one of the captured officers of the Pang Deli Righteous Army, Jiang Liang was in the prime of life, but he had experienced nearly 20 years of bad battles.

Under his command, more than 500 cavalry charged, detachments chased, and even did not give Deng Zhan's troops time to surrender, and settled the battle in the collision on horseback, stabbing with wielding halberds, and slashing.

In less than two quarters of an hour, the battle ended.

Jiang Liang led some knights to ride horses around Tian Xin, and he stood on horseback holding a halberd and cheered: "Long live!" ”

Many knights stood up on horseback, or struggled to raise their halberds in their hands, and shouted: "Hurrah!" ”

Tian Xin's right hand moon lance was inserted and hung in the victory hook, raised his arm to respond to the mountain call, and after the three calls, he ordered: "Clean up the battlefield!" ”

Armor, weapons, and enemy heads were hung on horses and returned to the Hankou camp.

At this time, there were still infantry retreating downstream passing through Hankou, and seeing this, they approached the Hankou camp and asked to join the battle.

For too many officials, this battle was lost, and they were very unwilling to lose, and they still had the courage to continue fighting.

Twenty miles upstream of the Hankou camp, Li Yan's troops converged with Huang Zhong's defeated army of 13,400 people to rest on the shore.

Li Yan sat on a mass of reeds with his head down, his silver helmet aside, his hair scattered.

"Report!"

He rode his horse and rode through the defeated soldiers sitting on the ground, and dismounted in front of Li Yan, his voice was excited: "Lord! Hugu Pavilion Marquis burst into battle and slashed the enemy general Deng Zhan! ”

The surrounding military officials got up one after another, and one of them asked urgently: "How is the battle going?" ”

The pro-rider turned his head and replied excitedly: "The prince is really the courage of the overlord, and no one can beat him!" ”

A military official immediately asked Li Yan for orders: "General, please also move the town to Hankou and work with Tian Junhou to resist the thief!" ”

Seeing these military officials looking at him, Li Yan's face was difficult: "General Ku Wu has an order." Our army was defeated and retreated due to the rout, and almost left the army in a desperate situation. I heard that although the Marquis of Hugu Pavilion was generous to others, he was strict in his work. If I don't have the order to help me fight, I am afraid that I will be punished. ”

In terms of crime, the crime is not Li Yan alone, but all military officials above the battalion governor level are guilty.

Huang Zhong was defeated too quickly, and it was so fast that Li Yan couldn't adjust the formation.

If Guan Yu is willing to listen to the explanation, there is still a way to live; If you don't listen to the explanation, the middle and high-ranking military officials around you will inevitably be beheaded.

Li Yan is really embarrassed, if he was beheaded by Guan Yu if he can say that he deserved it, then go to see Tian Xin and let Tian Xin cut it, it will be somewhat wronged.

He had never dealt with Tian Xin, only heard that Ma Liang wanted to raise Tian Xin to be filial piety, but Tian Xin refused.

There was also a banquet for Liu Bei that day in Nanyang, Tian Xin was even more self-conscious, and the atmosphere was very tense for a while, and Tian Xin did not toast anyone except for drinking Liu Bei's punishment wine during the whole banquet.

Liu Bei, Guan Yu, Liu Ba, Fu Kuang, and Tian Yu have never received Tian Xin's toast, which is simply rude.

Coupled with Tian Xin's performance on the battlefield, he felt more and more that he was a difficult person to get along with.

Not long after, another pro-horse rushed over, jumped off the horse and trembled his legs, his cheeks were red and sweaty, and his eyes were shining: "Tian Junhou annihilated the Wei army with five hundred horses!" ”

A group of military officials were in an uproar, and Pang Yan took the lead in climbing on his green horse: "I want to fight back with Tian Junhou, but can I have the same person?" ”

Some soldiers nearby stood up, and some officers drew their swords and rose: "May we go together!" ”

In a few moments, the knight sent by Tian Xin carried the head of Deng Zhan's golden helmet with a spear and shouted: "My prince wants to counterattack Zhang Liao, and I hope that my followers can go to the Hankou camp to regroup!" ”

Li Yan picked up the gilt silver helmet and put it on: "The army is going south!" ”

Immediately, the drummers around him beat the drums, Li Yan's commander pointed to the south, and the military officials near and far got up to see it, urging the soldiers around him to march south.
