Chapter 368: Rush to the Aid (5)
Looking at the stalemate, Li Wei became impatient.
Xu Huang is indeed brave, which makes Li Wei feel amazed when he sees it, and it is even more regrettable why such a warrior would serve under Yang Feng's account. But since he drove Lu Bu out of Chang'an City, he didn't pay much attention to these so-called fierce generals.
What's more, the military general next to him said that Xu Huang is famous for his loyalty and bravery, and he has not given up surrendering in this desperate situation now, which proves that this is more or less true. A person who is unlikely to take refuge in himself, Li Dao really doesn't have much patience.
If it weren't for the fact that the archers were waiting outside during the siege, and the number of people who followed in was very small, I am afraid that the archers would have fired thousands of arrows by now, turning Xu Huang into a hedgehog. Even so, Li Dao still couldn't wait, as long as the Son of Heaven didn't reach him for a day, he couldn't feel at ease, not to mention that he wasn't a patient person in the first place.
Seeing that only Xu Huang and a few people were still at the gate of the courtyard, Li Wei immediately ordered his people to take a detour to enter, anyway, such a large courtyard is not necessary to go through the main gate to enter.
Sure enough, after hearing his order, his soldiers immediately took action, and soon an officer with more than a dozen soldiers, almost in front of Xu Huang and several others, climbed over from the position of the courtyard wall.
Because it was inconvenient to climb in armor, there were even two soldiers who ran to stand under the wall, making human benches for their other companions———— of course, it is also possible that they did not do it voluntarily, after all, there are very few people in this world who want to be trampled under the feet of others like a footrest.
It's a pity that there is no way, the military order is like a mountain. In addition, now that Li Dao is watching from the side, he usually doesn't care, saying a few words of complaint is at most a beating, and if he is verbose now, I'm afraid he will be dragged out and cut down immediately...
This scene was seen by the ministers in the garden who were watching the movement outside through the window, and saw that the fierce Xiliang Army outside was about to rush in, and suddenly many ministers became like headless flies, making a mess.
Even Yang Biao, Zhao Wen and the others were pale, and they only felt that everything was like the end of the world.
However, just when the first person from the Xiliang Army had already turned in, and the rest of the people were about to follow in, they heard a shout coming from a distance, and then they saw a young general covered in blood killed from a distance, the spear in his hand was like a wild dragon, and the tip of the spear kept poking at the vital points of the more than ten soldiers, but in the blink of an eye, the more than ten Xiliang troops actually suffered more casualties than ordinary, and even the leading officer also died under the spear of the general.
It was Zhao Yun who arrived in time, and I saw that the white robe and silver armor on Zhao Yun's body had already been dyed red by blood at this time, and there were footprints made of blood step by step on the way here.
After clearing the Xiliang army blocking the exit of Hangu Pass, Zhao Yun did not wait for the Qingzhou army and Cao army soldiers who were still resting, and they had already rushed to Hangu Pass single-handedly.
At that time, the direction west of Hangu Pass had almost completely fallen, but the east side was still in their hands, especially the city gate was not blocked. After all, if the east side was also blocked by stones and rolling logs like before, it would really be a crisis, and Liu Xie and the others would have no way to escape.
It was also such a retreat that had been reserved that allowed Zhao Yun to calmly enter Hangu Pass from the location of the city gate.
The first thing Zhao Yun did after entering Hangu Pass was nothing else, it was to ask the location of the Son of Heaven and the current situation in Hangu Pass. It's a pity that Zhao Yun didn't get any useful news from the defenders, and finally found a deserter, but what he got was the news that all the soldiers and horses in the pass had retreated, and the Son of Heaven and others were also besieged by the rebels.
Worried about the safety of the Son of Heaven, Zhao Yun rushed towards the direction of the Son of Heaven's residence, and the rebels encountered along the way, as long as they dared to block Zhao Yun's way, almost all of them were killed by Zhao Yun with a spear, whether it was an ordinary pawn or an ordinary general, almost none of them could go through a round under Zhao Yun's gun, but the consequence of this was that Zhao Yun's body had no image at all, and the handsome young general in white robe and silver armor could be said to be gone, replaced by a blood-soaked peerless general.
"Who's coming?" Looking at Zhao Yun, who rushed all the way over, Li Dao asked in surprise.
Without him, it was really Zhao Yun's performance just now that was a little too rebellious, more than a dozen people, but almost half of them were killed in the blink of an eye, and the speed was so fast that they didn't even have time to support on their side. It's not that he hasn't seen such a warrior, but that person is the entire Xiliang, no, it should be the top existence of today's Han Dynasty.
"I am Changshan Zhao Zilong, a traitor, you dare to disturb the holy driver, don't you know that this is an unforgivable sin!" Zhao Yun directly pointed his spear at Li Dao on the opposite side.
Although Zhao Yun was on the ground and Li Wei was on horseback, Zhao Yun almost completely crushed the other party in terms of momentum alone. And after hearing Zhao Yun's name, Li Wei was even more shocked.
His name, how could Li Dao not have heard of it, not to mention the great name of the four generals of Qingzhou, you must know that Lu Bu was stopped by Zhao Yun and Tai Shici in the battle of Tiger Prison Pass back then, and Zhao Yun was famous all over the world because of this battle.
To be reasonable, although the current Lu Bu has completely broken with the Xiliang Army, in the eyes of many people in the Xiliang Army, Lu Bu, the strongest general, is still a symbol. If Lu Bu was not from Bingzhou, but from Xiliang, I am afraid that it would not be Li Dao's turn to do anything with Guo Yan now, and the Xiliang Army would have already been under Lu Bu's account.
Regardless of the era, the regional problem is a huge problem that cannot be completely solved. Especially in the era of inconvenient transportation, people are usually closer to the people in their hometowns, which is more conspicuous when they are farther away from the place...
Don't look at Lu Bu has been mixed in the Xiliang Army for so many years, in fact, he has not had much influence on the Xiliang Army, the biggest reason is because Dong Zhuo and the main force under his command are almost all from Xiliang, and the main subordinates under his command are also from Xiliang, but Lu Bu is a native of Bingzhou, the distance between these two places is very far, and the high-level leaders of the Xiliang Army have not regarded Lu Bu as their own people at all, and vice versa...
If Lu Bu was from Xiliang, the Xiliang army would have been the main force under his account now, but unfortunately this is not the case...
For the Xiliang army, which is dominated by Xiliang people, Lu Bu can only be regarded as an outsider, they may respect Lu Bu's bravery, but they will not accept this person no matter what.
Looking at the other party's momentum, which was almost not inferior to Lu Bu back then, Li Dao also felt a little frightened. But thinking that there were so many subordinates around him, he hurriedly shouted. "I don't know if I'm alive or dead, kill this guy for me!"
"No!" The people who accompanied Li Wei were basically the most elite part of his command, and the Xiliang Army was already very good at fighting, although Zhao Yun's martial arts were amazing, he still obeyed the order and rushed forward.
It's a pity that Zhao Yun's martial arts are far stronger than Li Wei imagined. Maybe there is still a little gap between Zhao Yun and Lu Bu at this time, but this gap is not as big as when he was in the Tiger Prison...
Seeing the silver spear in Zhao Yun's hand dancing wildly, those Xiliang troops who were besieging him couldn't get close to him at all. Looking at Zhao Yun's superhuman marksmanship, Xu Huang, who was originally guarding the gate, couldn't help but be a little stunned.
He didn't expect that there was such superb marksmanship in this world, and it could reach such an unimaginable level. And Changshan Zhao Yun's reputation also made him ecstatic. After all, Lu Bu's defeat back then was very shocking to the people of the Xiliang Army, how could Xu Huang, as a member of the Xiliang Army, not hear about that incident?
If it were an enemy, then Zhao Yun would definitely be an opponent that no one would want to encounter, but if it was an ally, he would also be the kind that everyone would want to have...
Obviously, now Zhao Yun is appearing as an ally...
Seeing that more and more people died in the hands of the two, but they couldn't take half a step, Li Dao was also very annoyed. However, Li Dao is still very confident in regaining the Son of Heaven. Although Zhao Yun and Xu Huang are indeed very powerful, they are so powerful that if Li Wei goes up to challenge, I am afraid that it will not take a few rounds to be solved.
But...
"No matter how powerful you are, can you still stop thousands of troops!" Li Dao said disdainfully, he didn't believe that anyone could be more powerful than Lu Bu, didn't Lu Bu let them out back then, not to mention these two people, the most important thing is that there is no one around them now, only the two of them are left to fight alone, and what about Li Dao? Not counting those who are still outside Hangu Pass, the number of soldiers and horses in the pass alone has reached tens of thousands. No matter how powerful these two people are, they can't be the opponent of these tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, and the number of soldiers and horses in this Hangu Pass is also something that these two people can't fight.
Things are indeed as Li Wei thought, although Zhao Yun and Xu Huang are both strong monster-like existences, but they are not real monsters after all. Especially Xu Huang, the weapon in his hand was already very heavy, and now that he has been fighting for such a long time, how can he not be exhausted, and he will be a little unable to maintain it after a long time.
Zhao Yun's state is much stronger than Xu Huang, but when facing so many people, he is actually not much stronger than Xu Huang. But in the face of so many enemies, Zhao Yun was not afraid.
Because...
"General, here we are!"
"The thief Hugh is going to be rampant!"
Hearing a burst of drinking, a large number of Qingzhou troops rushed out from behind the buildings in the distance, and just when almost all the Xiliang troops focused their attention on Zhao Yun and Xu Huang, they launched an attack unexpectedly.
Immediately after, another group of sergeants emerged from behind the building, judging from their costumes, they should be Cao Jun's people.
Cao Jun's tiger and leopard cavalry was also fierce and abnormal, and he killed the unprepared Xiliang army on the opposite side with just one face, and turned over on his back. If it weren't for the quick eyes of the soldiers around Li Dao, who dragged Li Dao back into the formation from the outside, even Li Dao himself would have almost been swept in.
"Hell, where did these people come from!" Looking at the large number of soldiers and horses that suddenly appeared, Li Wei couldn't help but say angrily.
"When did you become an idiot to this point, didn't you understand when that Zhao Yun appeared, why haven't you figured it out yet?" A voice that made Li Wei very angry sounded from the side, and he looked in that direction, and it turned out to be Guo Yan.
"That Zhao Yun is a famous general in the Kanto region and the general of the Qingzhou Army, since he is here, doesn't it mean that the Qingzhou Army has arrived? There are also those people's costumes, which look completely different from the Qingzhou army, but since the Qingzhou army is here, it means that it is not only the Qingzhou army that is coming this time, it is very likely that all the Kwantung princes have sent soldiers and horses. ”
Speaking of this, Guo Yan's face was slightly gloomy.
Originally, the reason why he supported Li Dao to catch up was because he felt that if he let the Son of Heaven run back to the Kanto, it was very likely that he would gain the support of the Kwantung princes. Although the farce of the Sour Jujube Alliance has proved that the princes of the Kanto region have fallen into the trap called the struggle for power, no one dares to guarantee that none of the princes are willing to be loyal to the Han family, at least Ma Teng of Xiliang has always regarded himself as a loyal minister.
As long as it is in the name of the Son of Heaven, it may be difficult to let Ma Teng commit suicide or be arrested, but if he is asked to do things such as moving into Chang'an, I am afraid that he will be nine times out of ten.
And everything that is happening now just proves Guo Yan's conjecture.
No matter how weak the current Han family is, it still has a huge influence that ordinary people can't imagine. If the Son of Heaven is really allowed to run away, as long as the Son of Heaven remembers the humiliation he had in Chang'an, plus those ministers, disaster will be tantamount to coming to the door.
Although according to the current situation, it is impossible for Liu Xie to come to the door in a short period of time, and the situation does not allow him to do so, just stabilizing the situation in the Kanto region is enough to consume a lot of Liu Xie's time.
However, who dares to say how much time the Liu Association spends?
Guo Yan really hopes that he can live a long life.
"Go, no matter what, we must take back the Son of Heaven!"
"I still need to say this!" Li Wei scolded angrily.
Don't he know that? The problem is that now there are not only Zhao Yun and Xu Huang in front, but also a large number of Kwantung soldiers and horses. Zhao Yun and Xu Huang alone are already a big trouble, not to mention such a large number of Kanto soldiers and horses? Now it's already very difficult to rush to the courtyard where the Son of Heaven is...
As for the people in the courtyard, they are now looking at the reinforcements outside with an excited face...
If I hadn't remembered who I was, I'm afraid someone would have cried bitterly...
