Chapter 264: Snowman

Zhao De and three thousand light horsemen soon appeared where Mo Chen had just been, but instead of moving forward, they reined in the reins of their horses and stopped moving forward in unison.

More than a dozen soldiers with torches in their hands, constantly searching for something on the ground, finally shook their heads in unison, indicating that there was nothing.

A ten-captain stepped forward and replied, "General, the footprints of the rebels are gone. ”

"Gone? How could two thousand centaurs suddenly disappear, the other party must have been hiding, hurry up and search for me. Zhao De ordered.

"Whoa"

Three thousand light horsemen, scattered, walked around, and did not even get off the horse.

Mo Chen secretly shouted carelessly, forgetting to clear the footprints on the way he came, but since there is a possibility of being discovered, then prepare for battle.

Zhao De looked at the scattered light horses, and there was a faint feeling of uneasiness in his heart, the other party's 100 troops could break through the round-up of more than 10,000 people, and now the other party has 2,000 people, then he has 3,000 people, although it is a cavalry, but it is only a light horse, but an arrow horse, light cavalry It stands to reason that if the cavalry is infantry, even if the number is less than the other party, it can also achieve an overwhelming advantage, but when encountering those 2,000 men and horses, I am afraid that I will not be able to get benefits, after all, the results of the other party really make him dare not despise it, of course, the most important thing is, The broken city gate tunnel in Handan City, where the scene of shaking the mountains seemed to have just happened, made him still tremble when he thought about it.

It's not that he doesn't want to bring more men and horses over, it's just that the Great Zhao cavalry is already small, and most of them are concentrated on the border close to the Xiongnu steppe.

These cavalry are still because Handan City is the national capital, so there are 10,000 cavalry, including 5,000 light cavalry, 5,000 Hufu arrow cavalry, and he and Wang Youcai each led 3,000 cavalry to search from different directions, while Zhang Jun led 20,000 armored soldiers.

It stands to reason that the 20,000 armored soldiers of Zhang's army in the middle are most likely to encounter each other, and then he and Wang Youcai will each lead each unit to rush in front of the opponent with the rapid advantage of cavalry and block the opponent's retreat, and the 2,000 men and horses will be turned into powder under their siege.

Although he wanted to retreat, he remembered the angry expression of the king, and the leader who came to see him without extermination, he could only grit his teeth and chase after him, after all, the battle may be lost, but there is always hope, but retreating, there is only a dead end, and it may also affect the family, so that he does not dare to retreat.

Of course, he had already ordered the heralds as soon as they spotted the enemy

People, go and notify the other two armies to come to support as soon as possible, as for why you don't go to ask for support now, this is because Dong is worried that it is the other party's plan to divert the tiger from the mountain.

The cavalry went around and found that there was nothing unusual, so they ran over and replied: "General, all sides have been probed, and there is no trace of the enemy." ”

"No trace? Well, that means that the original footprints were a trick used by the other party to confuse us, but fortunately, General Ben noticed that something was wrong at the first time and did not send someone to ask for help at the first time, so it stands to reason that the rebels may be within the route of the other two armies. Zhao De's face had already been expected, and he said calmly.

"Since there isn't, let's move on." Zhao De ordered.

Mo Chen, who was hiding in the snow, secretly breathed a sigh of relief, although he was not afraid of the other party's three thousand people, but his priority now was to go to Chu State to make peace with the old general Lian Po, if he could fight, he didn't want to fight, kill a thousand enemies, and lose eight hundred, although his own soldiers are definitely not so good, but the other party is a cavalry, and the infantry always suffers from the cavalry.

"Whoa"

The soldier replied and wanted to get on his horse and leave.

Zhao De suddenly seemed to notice something, and suddenly said, "Wait, you go and take a look at that strange pile of learning." ”

The soldiers looked in the direction pointed by Zhao De, there was a group of snowdrifts on the side of a small slope that looked a bit like snowmen, they had actually discovered it earlier, but they thought that it should be a snowman built by children from a nearby village, after all, it was too bad, twisted and crooked, and they didn't care when they glanced at it.

"Yes General."

The soldier saluted, did not ride his horse, drew his weapon and walked directly to the snowdrift.

The soldier who was hiding in the snowdrift and prayed not to be trampled on by the horse really wanted to cry at this time, but so many people didn't find it and didn't look for it, so why can't they get along with a snowman! Even the snowman is bullied, and there is no reason for this.

No cavalryman cares, in his opinion, it is just an ugly snowman, it is impossible to hide someone, after all, it is freezing on this day, standing on the snow feels very cold, not to mention hiding in the snowdrift and not moving, it is not freezing to death.

The cavalry walked up to the snowman and slashed at the ugly snowman's neck with a swing of his sword, and if there was someone in it, the head would be cut off, but he never thought that there was really anyone there.

But just as he swung his knife at will,

Suddenly he found that a long knife from the snowman slashed his throat faster than the weapon in his hand.

The cavalryman snorted, his weapon falling directly to the ground, his hands clutching his severed throat, trying to stop the warm blood from spurting out of his throat, but the blood continued to flow from his fingers, dripping on the snow, and finally fell in a pool of blood with a look of reluctance and disbelief.

The soldier's encounter was like a signal, only to see that in the originally calm snow, piles of small and inconspicuous snowdrifts suddenly made a thumping sound, and one by one burly men jumped up directly from the snowdrifts.

Before the cavalry could react to the previous accident, they had already been thrown off their horses by these burly men, and then the sword flashed, and blood splashed, staining this beautiful snowy land red.

"Enemy Attack"

"Brothers, kill! There is a reward for every rebel killed. ”

"Heralds, go and report General Zhang, General Wang, the rebels again, let them come to support quickly"

Zhao De yelled and slapped the horsewhip, so that the war horse galloped quickly, and the gentleman did not stand a dangerous wall, as a general of the army, he should stabilize the Diaoyutai and go to a safe place to command the battle.

The few heralds in the outermost part had prepared in advance, and as soon as they heard Zhao De's words, several people urged the horses to run away.

Just as the fast horse was galloping, a long knife suddenly stabbed out of the snow.

The war horse didn't have time to dodge, so he rushed directly from the long knife, and suddenly the sharp long knife directly cut through the belly of the war horse, instantly cutting the entire horse's belly.

"Wow"

The internal organs of the war horse fell directly from the wound to the ground, the war horse neighed, and fell directly to the ground, because of the rapid gallop, suddenly fell to the ground, and the inertia made the war horse throw out four meters away.

Fortunately, Zhao De has also practiced, and there were two times, when the war horse fell, he had already jumped off the war horse, so that he was not killed on the spot by the war horse.

But even so, he had fallen so badly that his helmet had been thrown off

Mo Chen stood up from the snow, and because of the snow, not much of the horse's blood stuck to him.

Holding a knife, he looked at the embarrassed Zhao De with a smile, showed a smile, greeted him like an old friend who hadn't seen him for many years, and said, "General Zhao, we meet again."
