431. Chan Lie is incomparable
Seeing Cao Cao seriously injured, Cao Chun's heart suddenly burst! He immediately ordered the tiger and leopard to form a formation and surround Cao Cao. At this time, Shi Ah was already at the end of his crossbow, he endured the pain and picked up a sharp sword from the ground, and with one sword cut off the leg of a tiger and leopard riding horse, and the tiger and leopard knight fell off the horse in a hurry.
Then Shi Ah took a step forward, and with a wave of the sword, he slashed directly through the neck of the tiger and leopard rider, where there was no armor to protect him, so the man instantly fell into the blood.
The people of the Darksword can't all be as powerful as Shi A, and they don't have a good way to deal with the tiger and leopard riders who are armed to the teeth. Fight to the death while looking for an opportunity to stab them in the throat or chop their horses' legs. It's just that the disadvantages of the dark sword are too obvious, and frontal fighting is not what they are good at.
Shi Ah didn't see it well, so he yelled: "The mission is complete, retreat quickly!" With a roar, some of the people in the dark sword began to retreat. But they had just taken two steps back, and they all stopped unconsciously. Because Shi Ah did not retreat, he was still fighting with the tiger and leopard horse.
"Grand Commander, why don't you retreat!" Someone asked loudly.
"Hahaha!" Shi A stabbed a tiger and leopard to death with a sword, and then laughed and said: "I have been seriously injured and died, and I can't run!" You don't have to worry about me to retreat quickly, let me wait for you! ”
At this time, several injured members of the Darksword also stepped forward and stood with Shi A. They did not talk nonsense and showed their determination with practical actions. The faces of the remaining members of the Darksword all changed, and they were eager to settle with the Tiger and Leopard Riders. But these people also knew that rushing forward like this was just an egg hitting a stone, so these people resisted their impulse, turned and fled in the distance.
Cao Chun ordered the tiger and leopard cavalry to divide the troops to chase and suppress, but Shi A took a dozen people behind him, and he was stunned that his flesh and blood had blocked these tiger and leopard horses. In the end, after killing more than a dozen tiger and leopard knights in a row, Shi Ah was bleeding too much and his feet were weak and he was shot through the chest by a tiger and leopard knight.
Shi Ah knew that he was going to die at this time, and he laughed loudly, and blood flowed from the corner of his mouth. This tiger and leopard rider saw that Shi A was still so arrogant when he was dying, he picked up the gun and wanted to pick Shi A in the air. At this moment, Shi A, who was already exhausted, squeezed forward violently, and then swung out another sword, and the tiger and leopard rider didn't have time to dodge before his throat was cut by a sword.
As the spear let go, Shi Ah fell to the ground on his back, and at this time a large knife chopped his head alive. At this point, the Dark Sword Commander Shi Ah fell in Taishan City. At this time, the long street was full of blood and dead bodies, and the blood water almost stained the entire street. So much so that the Cao army troops, who came to clean up the battlefield in the future, couldn't help but gasp when they looked at the scene in front of them, and muttered in their hearts: "This is too tragic!" ”
A total of one hundred and thirty-two people died in this battle, and only twenty-eight escaped. The Shadow Department also killed more than thirty people, most of them in Tarzan City, where almost all the Shadows died.
Of course, the people of the Dark Sword and the Shadow did not die in vain, and Cao Jun also paid a heavy price. Not only was the general Xu Chu killed, but all the sixteen people who guarded Cao Cao in the hidden danger were killed, plus Cao Cao's eighteen personal guards and nearly 200 soldiers in the tiger and leopard cavalry. Fortunately, the most critical Cao Cao was injured by Shi A's flying sword, and his injuries were very serious.
The originally prepared plan for the Eastern Crusade had to be completely canceled due to Cao Cao's serious injury. After Guo Jia learned that Cao Cao had been seriously injured in the assassination, his face changed drastically, and he immediately rushed from the military camp to the Taishou Mansion. At this time, Cao Cao was lying on the couch with a pale face, and the military doctor had taken out the sword for him, but the sword pierced Cao Cao's chest entirely, and the wound not only bleed heavily, but also was extremely difficult to heal. The military doctors could only barely help Cao Cao stop the bleeding, but as long as he moved a little, the wound could burst.
Cao Cao was still in a coma at this time, Guo Jia ordered someone to block the news of Cao Cao's serious injury, and on the other hand, let the city be under martial law, no one was allowed to leave the city for any reason, and those who violated the order were directly killed on the spot. is the so-called troubled times, Cao Cao was so seriously injured, if Liu Bei knew the specific situation, he would lead a large army to attack!
Guo Jia's arrangement is not untimely, but the shadow has its own communication channel. The news of Cao Cao's serious injury still reached the city of Changyi. Liu Bei was not overjoyed when he heard the news, he sighed and said: "After dying so many people, Cao Cao was seriously injured, and I don't know whether it was a loss or a gain." ”
After sighing, Liu Bei came to Jia Xu to discuss countermeasures. He remembered that this moth plan was only the first step, and Han Fei seemed to have arrangements for the future. Sure enough, Jia Xu said to Liu Bei: "Lord Cao Cao is seriously injured, and this is the time for our army to attack." ”
Liu Bei's eyes lit up when he heard this: "Yes, Cao Jun has no leader in the group of dragons at the moment, and he will lead the army to wipe them out." ”
Jia Xu shook his head and said, "The lord is just a feint, and the real killing move is still the military advisor!" ”
Liu Bei listened to Jia Xu's words, and the enthusiasm on his face quickly subsided. He said lightly: "Lone knows, so it's arranged." Tomorrow, Lone Dang will lead a large army to conquer Taishan City! ”
In the turn of the day, Liu Bei gathered an army of 20,000 and went straight to Taishan City to kill. Zang Ba of the Taishan battalion also received orders, and when the army arrived, they would go down the mountain to join the army.
Liu Bei's army was dispatched, and the city of Taishan soon received the news. Guo Jia looked at Cao Cao, who was still in a coma, so he ordered: "Prepare a big car, I will take the lord to Xuchang to recuperate!" ”
At the same time, Guo Jia left an army of 10,000 in Taishan City, and ordered the generals Xu Yong and Zhang Kang to defend Taishan City, and be sure to block the advance of Liu Bei's army. Then Guo Jia and others escorted Cao Cao to withdraw to Yanzhou with the tiger and leopard cavalry and the remaining 30,000 horses. Although the army was withdrawn, Guo Jia did not forget that Han Fei's army was in Yanzhou at the moment, and in order to prevent Han Fei from sneaking up on them, Guo Jiayou ordered Yu Ban of Dongjun to lead his men and horses to come and listen to the order.
Because Cao Cao's injuries were too severe, the army walked very slowly along the way, and it only took eighty miles to walk in one day. Seeing that there were still more than eighty miles away from Yanzhou, Guo Jia secretly thought to himself that he must speed up the march tomorrow, and he must arrive in Yanzhou before dark.
There was no word for a night, and after a turn of the day, the army continued to move forward. At noon, Cao Cao, who was in a coma, finally woke up. But he woke up, but he was still very weak. When he learned that the army was now withdrawing to Yanzhou, Cao Cao smiled bitterly at Guo Jia: "Fengxiao, this time should be the best time to hit Liu Bei hard, I didn't expect it to be such a result, I am afraid it will be difficult to have this opportunity in the future!" ”
