Chapter 623: There is no escape

The sky was already dark, and on the avenue thirty miles south of Zizhong City, a team of embarrassed men and horses was hurrying along.

The moment he heard that Huang Zhong's army was coming, Pang Yi knew that this time it was planted. How can a few thousand soldiers and horses stop tens of thousands of enemy soldiers breaking through the city?

However, he had already predicted that Wu Yi's chances of winning this time were between five and five, and the reason why he could no longer accurately infer it was mainly Liu Yong's means, the news channels were all controlled by Zhuge Liang during the two years he was in charge, and ordinary people had no way to interfere at all, and Jin Tianwei was now extremely powerful, and they were all selected by the people above, and then distributed by them, most of them were still carried out secretly, which was also the main reason why Pang Yi could not calculate further.

So at that moment, there was an idea to leave this dangerous situation immediately. When leaving the Wu Mansion, Pang Yi immediately invited Liu Xun to his temporary residence to persuade him.

Pang Yi has calculated all his life, and he chose to follow Liu Yan because he had a very good personal relationship, but the main thing was that he saw that Chang'an was already a place of four wars where bandits gathered, and the risk of leaving behind was too great, relatively speaking, Yizhou was more peaceful and easy to get ahead, and the later facts also proved that his inference was correct. And the reason why he chose to follow Wu Yi this time was because he also saw Liu Yong's large-scale suppression of the old family in Yizhou, if he didn't do anything, he could only end up with a lonely ending.

Especially the personal grudge between him and Fa Zheng is not small, with Fa Zheng's current power and that kind of temperament that will be repaid, he will definitely not let him spend his old age in peace.

However, when he saw that something could not be done, he naturally had to leave as soon as possible, but he still put on a life-saving sign, that is, Liu Xun. He thinks that in order to maintain his benevolent image, Liu Yong will not kill Liu Xun even if he catches them in the end, and he will naturally have a chance to save his life if he pulls Liu Xun, and he doesn't just have such a little backhand.

After the two discussed, they immediately decided to lead the army to retreat to Jiangyang County, and then go to Ba County, as for Wu Yi, he couldn't control it at the moment, this kind of alliance that was originally maintained by interests, the small boat of friendship, at this time, it was natural to turn over, so the two had to lead a little of their soldiers and horses to withdraw from Guanghan.

It's just that the army was panicked, and the soldiers fled along the way, and when they arrived at Zizhong, there were less than 1,000 soldiers left around them.

Xu said that it had risen, Pang Yi raised his eyes and looked into the distance, the terrain in front of him had begun to steepen, and he was about to get rid of the pursuers, leaving Wu Yi behind him to deal with it, and he was getting closer and closer to Jiangyang.

As long as he can enter Jiangyang smoothly, the guards over there will be his old subordinates, and it will be no problem to get his support to reach Jiangzhou.

Thinking of this, Pang Yi's mood perked up a little, and at this moment, a soldier exclaimed: "Oh no, the enemy has caught up!" ”

Pang Yi's heart was shocked, and he looked back sharply, and sure enough, he saw the direction of the avenue behind him, and the dust and smoke were billowing up in the sky, and Liu Xun had already flown on the horse with a spear in his hand, ready to fight, as a military general, he was constantly chased and killed, which was a great shame, and he would even rather be born in an ordinary farmhouse.

The dust and mist like a sandstorm are rolling towards the side at a rapid speed, and who else can cause such a momentum except for the cavalry.

Pang Yi suddenly remembered that after Liu Yong occupied Yizhou, he collected a large number of the original Xichuan men and horses, among which there must be no shortage of cavalry, and then concentrated the cavalry to establish an iron cavalry in Sichuan.

Although the war horses in the Sichuan are shorter than the northern war horses, the Sichuan and Shu horses tend to be short, but the horses in the Sichuan have a great advantage that they have excellent endurance, although the legs are short and the speed is slower, but it is also a war horse, can people run?

After Huang Zhong controlled the Xichuan soldiers and horses, this elite combat force was naturally handed over to him under his control, this time chasing them, how could Huang Zhong not send this group of elite cavalry?

In an instant, Pang Yi's heart was hit hard.

The enemy is coming very quickly, and the more than 1,000 remnants of our own army, who are sleepy and lacking horses, will catch up if they can't escape far, and with such a formation, they will be easily crushed by the enemy's cavalry. And Liu Xun was obviously unwilling to flee anymore, with an awe-inspiring look of death.

Pang Yi had no choice but to order more than 1,000 defeated soldiers to line up against the mountain, ready to deal with the onslaught of the enemy cavalry. In the wilderness, the only way to defend against cavalry was to fight in formation, and there was only one way to escape.

Among the more than 1,000 soldiers, many of them have discarded their weapons, and there are few archers, so Pang Yi can only piece together a messy infantry army formation according to the existing situation.

In the blink of an eye, the sandstorm approached.

Pang Yi was stationed in the horse formation, holding a sharp sword, his gray face was full of solemnity, and he looked ready to die generously and fight a bloody battle.

But the soldiers were not as strong as he was.

Pang Yi didn't have any great ambitions in his heart, such as being loyal to the two masters and generously going to righteousness, so he didn't want to fight to the death, even at this moment, his head was still turning rapidly, hoping to find a way to solve the dilemma.

Only Liu Xun is bent on fighting to the death, or bent on dying!

The soldiers are different, these Yizhou sons were originally coerced by Wu Yi to fight, and now the city has been lost, their own army is broken, and the chasing soldiers are cavalry, and they are not fools. They know very well that there is only one way to die if they fight again like this.

The hand holding the weapon was trembling, and the heartbeat was speeding up as the enemy approached.

When the raging cavalry, like a Shura from hell, rushed out of the sky-high fog, everyone's hearts thumped, as if they had been hit with a heavy punch, and the whole terrified heart almost burst out of the chest.

Three hundred steps, two hundred steps, one hundred steps.

"Ah~"

Under the pressure of such a powerful momentum, I don't know which person in the formation was the first to break down, screaming and holding his head and fleeing.

This messy infantry formation is like a fragile glass wall, which shatters with a single click. More than a thousand remnants of the soldiers, in a bang, howled and cried and fled in all directions.

"Stop, stop for me, and those who dare to trespass will be dealt with by military law." Liu Xun roared sharply, trying to suppress the rout, and he even swung his sword to personally cut down a few soldiers who had escaped by his side, but it was still to no avail.

The defeat was like a mountain, Liu Xun looked back, and there were no more people left around him.

The tide is over! Pang Yi let out a long sigh, and he also turned around and joined the fleeing team together.

I just heard the sound of weapons colliding behind me, but it didn't take long for everything to stop with a roar with vicissitudes, and all that was left in my ears was the whirring wind and the sound of horses' hooves coming out in the distance.

Pang Yi kept whipping, whipping the tired war horse under his crotch, and there were fewer and fewer soldiers around him, until in the end, he was left alone and riding, running alone on this mountain road.

Behind him, the enemy was still in pursuit, and the war horse under his crotch galloped all night, and at this moment he was exhausted, and he was forced to run out for several miles under the pressure of Pang Yi, and soon he was panting like a cow, foaming at the mouth.

Suddenly, the horse's hooves stepped into a low depression hidden in the grass, and the horse's hooves went limp, and they fell to their knees like screams. Pang Yi didn't even have time to be surprised, and the whole person was thrown out. After falling to the ground, because of his habitual surname, Pang Yi rolled forward a full distance of three zhang before stopping.

Fortunately, the ground was full of foot-length weeds, which offset a lot of the impact force, Rao was so, under this collision, Pang Yi also felt a sharp pain in his muscles and bones, as if he had fallen apart.

When Pang Yi got up according to what seemed to be a broken rib, the pursuers behind him were already dozens of paces away, and his poor mount was already lying on the ground foaming at the mouth and convulsing.

There is no hope of escaping, and trying to struggle again will only make the enemy laugh. Pang Yisuo sat cross-legged on the ground, his eyes closed, and he looked like he was sitting and waiting for death.

The sound of hooves gradually stopped, and the pursuers seemed to have stopped a few paces away, and all that could be heard was the snorting of the horses.

"Come on, tie me up!"

With a loud shout, more than ten sturdy soldiers immediately surrounded Pang Yi Wuhuanda and tied him up, and then lifted it and threw it on the back of a horse, and when Pang Yi looked up with difficulty, he saw Liu Xun covered in blood on the back of another horse next to him.
