Just as Li Wei's Flying Bear Army chased Zhou Heng out of the village, the place near the north of the village suddenly burst into the sky.

Not good!

Li Wei instantly realized the enemy's strategy, gritted his teeth and glared at Zhou Heng in the distance.

Zhou Heng was finally able to breathe a sigh of relief at this time.

Before leaving the village, he had even prepared for the worst, in case he couldn't escape, he would do his best to fight Li Dao.

Fortunately, despite losing a third of their men, the vast majority of the cavalry managed to break out.

All he had to do now was retreat.

Because the night front of the leech camp will escape through the gap when it invaded before, and there is no need for Zhou Heng to respond.

In fact, this is also what Cao Zhen meant, as long as Zhou Heng can attract enough attention, the leech camp will not be too dangerous.

Li Wei thought for a moment, but decided to chase after Zhou Heng.

There are Zhang Xiu, Jia Xu and several subordinates in the village, and I believe there will be no problems.

Zhou Heng saw that Li Dao did not give up chasing after him, so he said to his subordinates beside him: "Fire! ”

Just as they charged outward, some of the cavalry picked up as they passed by the pile of torches, and there were dozens of cavalrymen holding torches at this time.

This is actually pre-booked.

These torches are designed to allow companions to see the formation better.

Companion on the mountain - Cao Xiu!

Looking down at the night, it is difficult to distinguish between the enemy and me, so Zhou Heng proposed to order his subordinates to run on the outermost part of the team with torches, so that even if they are far away, they can know the movements of the entire team.

Cao Xiu's soldiers and horses were not as good at shooting as Xiahou Yuan had trained, they were more trained in military formations.

Zhou Heng's proposal perfectly solved the problem of their low accuracy in bows and arrows.

Seeing that the torches outside the village gradually formed a large circle, Cao Xiu gave the simplest order - to watch the direction of the fire circle and shoot behind the circle.

Because there, there must be the enemy's pursuers.

Everything was as expected, Li Dao was chasing the "ring of fire", and the rain of arrows suddenly fell from the sky.

Most of the arrows were only used to intercept them, but some did cause casualties.

Even if the accuracy is not good, the density of the arrows makes up for it.

And because the arrow fell from a great height, the force was much greater.

With such a dive shot, as long as the hit is in the right position, it can easily penetrate the body of the Flying Bear Army.

Although the rain of arrows came unprepared, Li Dao had experienced a life-and-death battle after all, and he immediately made a decision and ordered all the Flying Bear Army to quickly hide under the horse and use the horse's body as a cover.

He knew very well that there would not be too many archers on the other side's mountain, otherwise there would be no need to only send Zhou Heng and these thousands of soldiers and horses.

Extrapolating from the density of arrows fired by the opponent, the shooting will never exceed three rounds.

Because at this rate, their arrows will miss after two rounds.

But Li Wei also understood that by taking advantage of the time of these two rounds of arrow rain, Zhou Heng would escape.

……

The rain of arrows did shoot two rounds, and then there was no movement.

Except for the noisy firefighting soldiers in the village, Siye was silent.

Not outside the wall, not in the mountains, not in the valleys...... Nor did it.

In this battle, both sides lost about a few hundred men and horses.

The only difference is that nearly 100 people on Zhang Xiu's side were killed in the dispute with the Flying Bear Army.

In the dispute, only three people were killed and more than 40 were injured.

The others were to prevent Zhou Heng from being killed.

Compared to the total number of troops and horses on both sides, this loss is nothing.

However, the seemingly reckless sneak attack planned by Cao Zhen achieved the expected results.

Most of Zhang Xiujun's grain and grass were burned by the leech camp Yefeng.

Looking at the ashes of grain and grass that were still sparkling, Jia Xu frowned.

"Wenhe ......" Xu Yuan walked over, but didn't know what to say.

At this moment, she saw Lei Xu's gray face.

Xu Yuan's heart trembled, and she vaguely felt that something was wrong, she forcibly suppressed the uneasiness in her heart and asked with her eyes.

"Zhang Xian......"

Xu Yuan felt a buzz in his head when he landed, and almost fell, but fortunately he was supported by Jia Xu.

But before she had time to grieve, Zhang Xiu pushed away the soldiers and came to everyone in a little panic.

Everyone can see his eyes, and what it contains can only be bad news.

"How?" Jia Xu asked Zhang Xiu while holding Xu Yuan.

“…… Shen Shuai ...... "Zhang Xiu couldn't say it after all, just now, he received a report from the network bee soldiers who went to find Shen Rong, saying that Shen Rong was trapped in the valley by falling trees.

Zhang Xiu hurriedly led people to help, but when they arrived at the falling wood in the valley, there was no movement on that side.

After the reconnaissance confirmed that there was no ambush, Zhang Xiu commanded his subordinates to quickly move the fallen logs blocking the road.

The scene in front of him made Zhang Xiu and his subordinates stunned.

The corpses of the bee soldiers were scattered all over the place, and a dozen paces away, there was a black and red patch.

After getting closer and seeing it clearly, Zhang Xiu felt that her heart was pierced.

It turned out that in the pool of blood, there was a person with hands and feet tied - Shen Rong.

There are a lot of hollows in his body, and the blood in this place must have flowed out like this.

At this time, Shen Rong's mouth opened slightly, his face was pale, his body was stiff, and he had been dead for a long time.

……

Zhang Xian's death had already hit everyone hard, and he didn't want Shen Rong to be killed.

The grain and grass were burned again, and although they repelled the enemy together, the contradictions between Zhang Xiujun and Li Daojun were also highlighted.

Everyone who was shrouded in grief could understand that they could no longer enter the army.

……

At the same time, Cao Hong had led the main force to withdraw far away and sent people to Cao Cao for help.

Zhou Heng led his cavalry to retreat from the periphery, and they would eventually join Cao Hong.

Of course, Cao Zhen in the valley and Cao Xiu on the top of the mountain will also go to one place.

Although they dragged Li Dao, they knew very well that once the supply of food and grass was sufficient, the opponent's offensive would be even more ferocious.
