Chapter 277: Xu Shu broke the formation

Liu Bei also panicked, and said to Chen Wu: "Uncle is in danger, I beg General Chen Wu to lead an army to the rescue!" ”

Chen Wuyi was duty-bound, and together with Guan Hai, Cao Liang and others, he led two thousand Yellow Turban elites into Cao Ren's military formation. Cao Ren saw that Chen Wu led the army to the rescue, and he did not panic, and opened the gate of the formation to let them in. He used more than 10,000 soldiers and horses to lay out the eight-gate golden lock array, as long as the enemy troops who came to charge the battle did not exceed 10,000 people, it could be eaten!

Chen Wu said to Cao Liang: "Cao Liang, you lead the archers to cover on my two flanks, and Guan Hai will charge with me. ”

Cao Liang asked, "General, where are you going?" ”

Guan Hai was also puzzled, and Chen Wu said: "Fiction is real, and reality is fiction." This array is extraordinary, where there are few people, it must be a trap, and we rush to the place where there are many people. ”

Chen Wu raised the Heavenly Dragon Halberd, rode on the Xiliang War Horse, and rushed towards the place where the swords and guns were dense with swords and guns. However, it turned out that Chen Wu thought a little simply, this is not a weak place for defense, most of these people he brought were the Yellow Turban soldiers under Gong Du, and when they saw Cao Bing surrounding them one after another, they all panicked.

Guan Hai raised the door and shouted, "Don't panic! With me and the general here, what are you afraid of? Kill! ”

Guan Hai rode a fat horse, slashed away several Cao Ren sword and shield soldiers who rushed up, and then looked at Chen Wu, who was surrounded by dozens of spearmen and couldn't rush out.

Cao Liang took several of Chen Wu's subordinates to save Chen Wu, and the flying arrows took the lives of several enemy soldiers, but it was only a drizzle in the face of the Cao soldiers who kept coming up.

Cao Liang threw away the short crossbow that had shot the arrows, drew his waist knife and rode on his horse to slash and slash, cutting off the spear heads of several enemy spearmen. Cao Liang shouted, danced the steel knife in his hand and rushed over, but was shot into a hedgehog by the enemy archers in the array.

Chen Wu's halberd swept away an enemy sword and axe man who came up, and when he saw Cao Liang killed, his eyes were full of tears. The halberds in Chen Wu's hands were frequently stabbed, stabbing one enemy soldier after another, and Chen Wu's silver-white armor was dyed blood-red.

Chen Wu rode his horse out and slaughtered, and the brothers who came to save them with Cao Liang also fell one by one. Chen Wu was teary-eyed, Chen Wu firmly remembered the name of each of them, Chen Wu roared wildly, and clashed back and forth in the formation.

Seeing that Cao Liang was killed in battle, Guan Hai personally set up his horse to save Chen Wu, he raised the door and cut the two enemy soldiers who stopped in front of his horse into two pieces, and continued to rush in the direction of Chen Wu.

Several enemy archers hid behind the spearmen and fired cold arrows at him, and Guan Hai raised his sword and slashed away a few arrows, but he was still hit by an arrow in his right arm. Guan Hai picked up the big knife in his hand and threw it at the archers, and took the opportunity to ride away on horseback.

Guan Hai grabbed the horse's mane in one hand, twisted one enemy soldier on one side, snatched the iron knife from his hand, and continued to slash and charge. Seeing Guan Hai rushing towards him, Chen Wu urged his horse to raise his horse and jump over a deer antler in front of him, and swept away several enemy soldiers behind the antlers by the way.

After Guan Hai and Chen Wu met, he said, "General, General Chen Zhi doesn't know where he is. More than half of the sergeants we brought with us were killed! ”

Chen Wu wiped the blood marks on his face, gritted his teeth and looked at the enemy troops around him, there were so many as if he couldn't finish killing. Suddenly, seeing that the formation in front of them was scattered, Chen Wu and Guan Hai looked over, only to see a spear in the hand of a white-robed general stabbing out like a storm, the spear was deadly, and the enemy soldiers fell under his gun one after another.

The white-robed general was not Chen Zhi, who else could it be, Chen Zhi was almost dizzy when he circled around the center of the formation, and the white soldiers behind him also died one after another. Chen Zhi turned around and saw that the deputy general of the Bai Yu soldiers holding his flag had been killed, so he hurriedly rode his horse to kill and took down the flag and pinned it behind him.

Chen Zhi continued to rush and kill with the general flag, attracting a group of Cao soldiers to chase after him, and Cao Ren's soldiers wanted to make meritorious contributions and chased after them. More and more people left the places they were holding, the formation was slightly loosened, and the pressure on Chen Wu and Guan Hai was also reduced a lot.

Chen Wu raised the Heavenly Dragon Breaking City Halberd and shouted loudly at Chen Zhi: "General Chen Zhi, I am Chen Wu, and the imperial uncle has sent me to answer you!" ”

When Chen Zhi heard the prestige, he saw that Chen Wu and Guan Hai were leading the army to fight into the battle, Chen Zhi was exhausted, and a pit in front of him tripped Chen Zhi's horse. Chen Zhi even fell down with his horse, and Chen Wu hurriedly came to the rescue when he saw this.

I saw Chen Zhi's legs spread apart, holding on to the soil walls on both sides of the pit, and under the pit was a long spear head, if he fell, he would still die. Chen Wu rode over and handed his hand to Chen Zhi, who held his hand and flew to jump on Chen Wu's horse.

The two of them fought hard to kill outside the formation, but no one could do it, and finally rushed out of the Eight Golden Lock Formation. When Cao Ren saw it on the platform, he was so angry that he threw the command flag in his hand to the ground, and actually let the enemy general escape from his Eight Gates Golden Lock Array, what else did he lock!

Although Chen Wu and Chen Zhi rushed out, Guan Haima ran slowly, but they were chased and entangled by Cao Bing. Thousands of enemy soldiers chased after him, and Chen Wu and Chen Zhi were exhausted and powerless to help.

The iron knife in Guan Hai's hand was curled, Guan Hai remembered Xiahou Juan's charming smile, and sighed: "That's it, I Guan Hai is already cheap, and I can't escape today, but I am dead." ”

Guan Hai was about to give up resistance, but he saw a cavalry in the distance rushing over and killing all the Cao soldiers who surrounded Guan Hai. A "Zhang" character flag fluttered in the wind, and the head of the eight snake spears in his hands were like poisonous tongues and spit out the core, frantically harvesting the heads of the enemy soldiers.

It turned out that Zhang Fei, who was stationed in Xiping, heard that Cao Ren led a large army to attack Dingying, and hurried to rescue Liu Bei.

Zhang Fei drove his horse to Guan Hai, and Guan Hai was shocked: "It's you!" Why did you save me? ”

Zhang Fei said: "Juan Er said that thanks to your care, she was not bullied by other bandits in the cottage. You have been very good to her, and she has always treated you like a brother. If you die, Juan Er will be very sad! ”

Zhang Fei said and threw a long knife to Guan Hai, Guan Hai caught it, and went out with Zhang Fei to return to the city.

Chen Zhi returned to the city, gasped and said to Liu Bei: "Lord, I rushed into the formation, only to see a cloud of smoke rise, and Li Dian did not know where to go. The sudden change in the formation of the Cao army wrapped us in the formation, and the last general fought hard to kill and almost died. Fortunately, I was rescued by General Chen Wu, but none of the soldiers and horses led by me survived! ”

Liu Bei sighed, "In this way, this array is difficult to break!" Saying that, the tears were about to fall again, so Zhang Fei was ordered to stick to the city gate, and Chen Wu and Chen went down to rest and recover their strength.

Two days later, Liu Beijun's army was in a hurry, and the people in the city had no food left. Liu Bei has always acted in the name of benevolence and righteousness, and strictly ordered Gong Du to supervise his subordinates not to take the people captive.

It's just that Cao Ren's army outside the city is surrounded, and Liu Pi's grain and grass can't be transported. Guan Hai and Zhang Feibing released their previous suspicions, although Guan Hai was still a little unwilling in his heart, seeing that this Zhang Fei looked good, his martial arts were also higher than him, and the most important thing was to be good to Xiahou Juan. Guan Hai was relieved, he was wishful thinking, and now it was time to let go.

Guan Hai just wanted to go to Jiangnan with Chen Wu as soon as possible to make contributions, so he asked Chen Wu to choose war horses and weapons for him, prepare to fight his way out of the encirclement, and help Liu Bei move to rescue the troops, and then they could leave with peace of mind.

"General Chen, there is a person in your mansion who claims to be an old friend of the Marquis of Chu, and he asks General Chen Wu to go back to see him quickly!" The guards at the gate came in to report to Chen Wuyu.

Chen Wu asked, "Oh, who's his name?" ”

"It seems to be called Xu Shu......"

When Chen Wu heard this, he immediately ran back to his residence happily, Xu Shu had already learned at this time, and he was no longer the young ranger that Han Xuan met back then. He returned from a study tour in Jingzhou and heard that Liu Bei was recruiting troops in Runan, so he wanted to see if this Liu Bei was worthy of his assistance.

Xu Shu inquired in many ways, and accidentally learned that Han Xuan's brother-in-law Chen Wu was also here with Liu Bei, so he specially came to visit.

Xu Fu had changed his name to "Xu Shu" at this time, and Chen Wu naturally knew how powerful he was, so he didn't bother to talk to Xu Shu and asked him to go to the city to watch Cao Ren's army array.

Liu Bei heard that this person named Xu Shu had a strategy to break the formation, and he also accompanied Chen Wu and Xu Shu to the city to watch. Xu Shu finished reading it and said: "The Eight Gates Golden Lock Array has eight formations and eight gates, which are interlocking and interlocking, and there are no gaps. The soldiers and horses rushed into the formation, not the same person and one general, but everyone in the same formation! ”
