"Speed up, send someone to urge the rear team-"

Before dawn, in the darkest time period, the torches like a long dragon ran through the field, and the rumbling horse's hooves accompanied by Zhang Liao's voice were far away, in the dim light, his face was a little anxious, and he would not be so nervous if someone else led the cavalry to besiege Xiapi, but that person was Gongsun Zhi, the other party started from scratch in the almost real sense, and now has five counties and tens of thousands of soldiers and horses.

Even Yuan Shao, the most powerful in the world, has suffered a lot of losses in the hands of the other party, I have heard that the other party relied on cavalry to capture Liu Yu's Juyong County, although the wall of Picheng is thick, but he does not dare to take it lightly, from the white wolf broke through Daze Township, he followed all the way to chase, once the city of Pi was breached, it is difficult to imagine what kind of fate Lu Bu's family will suffer.

It was a long night for him.

Approaching Xiapi City less than five miles, the scattered scouts began to come back one after another, the horses came to stop, and someone arched his hand: "Hui Hui, there is no trace of the enemy within a radius of several miles, and there is no noise of war in the direction of Xiapi City, everything is as usual." ”

Next to him, an adjutant general pulled the reins and looked at Zhang Liao suspiciously: "General......"

“.…… Not good. ”

Zhang Liao frowned for a moment, looked at Lu County in the west, gritted his teeth and turned his horse's head violently: "The cavalry comes with me first, you lead the rear team of foot soldiers to follow quickly, and the white wolf may be ...... halfway."

The voice suddenly sounded in the night, and the war horse had rushed two feet away, and the whip crackled down, and he shouted: "Go-" The sound of horses' hooves on the ground exploded, and the guards and two thousand light horsemen galloped with him.

……

Boom.

Countless horses' hooves galloped across the field, the dust rolled up in the black, when the night was at its deepest, the mountains and forests in the distant hills shook in the wind, and a cavalry that was winding from the direction of Lu County with fire looked at the sky, and slowly stopped to rest for a while.

The flickering firelight reflected the hundred flower robes stroking in the wind, and the figure turned on the horseback, revealing a beast-faced swallowing head on the chain armor on his chest, Lu Bu took a water bladder and poured a sip of water, "How many ways are there to Xiapi?" ”

"Back to the lord, I have been out of Lu County for more than forty miles, and now it is less than sixty miles in Xiapi." A guard who was there to keep track of the distance along the way replied. Behind, one of the generals commanding the cavalry, Wei Xu turned his head: "Lord, Zang Ba in the rear." Gao Shun is too far away, wait for them, and go back together after dawn. ”

They passed through Pengcheng from Peiguo, and then passed through Lu County, and drove a distance of more than 150 miles in two days, and the huge fatigue accumulated on everyone, if they had to run the remaining 50 miles, it was not impossible, but in this case, once attacked, let alone fighting, it was a big problem whether even the war horses could run.

After all, not everyone has a horse.

"Walk ......a little longer," the field was silent, and after putting down the water bag, Lu Bu nodded to him, and then raised his finger to the hills ahead, "I know you are tired, but once Xiapi is lost, we will not even have the last place to stay, and even the families of the soldiers in the army will not be protected...... After passing Geyi Mountain in one breath, we will rest again, and by the way, we will guard the surroundings for Zang Ba and Gao Shun. ”

"Lord, can you wait a little longer......" Wei Xu was about to speak, and Cheng Lian next to him hurriedly came to pull him immediately.

Over there, Lu Bu turned around violently, his eyes were bloodshot, and his voice shouted: "Don't be long-winded, send a horse team to go over first." ”

"Yes......"

Wei Xu pursed his lips, glanced at Lu Bu who was full of anger, arched his hand, went down to arrange manpower, and after a while, the brigade slowed down, and a cavalry team of hundreds of people galloped towards the hills over there to explore the road first.

*****************

Not from time to time.

Patches of trees swayed, leaves roared wildly on the hills, and the wind grew stronger. A horse team galloped past in the distance, occasionally night birds chirped in the night, and someone's voice sounded softly: "Lu Bu is here......"

"It's not Lu Bu......" A pair of thick eyebrows frowned slightly, Gongsun Zhi tightened the handle of the knife and released it, "Don't act rashly, just come over to explore the way first." ”

At the same moment, the horse team below slowed down, and a small colonel raised a torch to shine on the not very high slopes on both sides of the road, where the grass and trees were overgrown, and he beckoned: "Go up and have a look." ”

Another voice next to him said, "...... After two days of driving, Wen Hou is not sympathetic, let's not be sympathetic to ourselves? Walk briskly, walk quickly, and rest after passing. ”

The person who spoke was a lieutenant, although the official position was one rank smaller, but everyone was familiar with each other, so they naturally heard the resentment in the words, and the official didn't have much of a stand, so he nodded, "Okay, we can't search such a big forest with hundreds of people, keep walking." ”

Soon after, the group had passed the place, and then waved their torches in front, and the cavalry on the other side saw the light of the fire flicker, and the slow horses behind gradually picked up speed and began to move through the narrow valley. Lined with dense mountain forests, the sound of leaves muffled the sound of a pair of footsteps breaking branches, revealing a pair of eyes looking at the marching procession below.

Around, more figures moved cautiously, slowly raised their weapons, and some even pulled bows and arrows, and then were pressed down, "The governor ordered, let Lu Bu pass, only hit the foot soldiers behind, don't mess around." ”

"There are so many of us, I'm afraid that Lu Bu won't be able to escape!" Xiahou glared angrily at the tall figure passing by in his sight, and lowered his bow in annoyance.

Beside him, a burly and swarthy iron helmet was tied around a tree branch, and when he turned his head, it swept to the face of Xiahou Dun, who spoke, "I agree with this, if a group of people came up to investigate, they would not be able to protect the ambush soldiers and would be discovered." ”

"You're so dark, even if you stand on the side of the road, they can't see you, and they're panicking." Xiahoudun brushed aside the branches and leaves swept on the black man's head and said teasingly.

Zhang Fei tore off the branch, and was about to scold angrily, but Li Ke, who came to inform him earlier, covered his mouth, "Don't make a sound." ”

Since the dispatch of the army to now, a month and a half, although he has promised to obey the military orders in front of Gongsun Zhi, there are mostly contradictions in the temperament between individuals, and there are occasional wars, and friction will occur with each other, which is limited to verbal collisions, and only at this time there is almost a bad thing.

Fortunately, the Bingzhou cavalry under the slope has passed.

A large number of cavalry galloped out of this valley, and Lu Bu's thoughts of being ambushed were also relieved, and after walking for a few more miles, he let the soldiers dismount and rest, waiting for the rear team of foot soldiers to come here to converge.

The wind whistled in the distance, the night birds chirped and flew by, and the journey was almost over, when Lu Bu took the dry food handed by Cheng Lian, he looked at the direction of Xiapicheng and still gritted his teeth, and sat down absentmindedly, thinking about other things, or thinking about his wife and daughter at home.

……

On the official road, a huge team of nearly 20,000 foot soldiers is moving forward, walking across the ground with difficulty, and the flags are lined up in front, Chen Gong looked tired and talked with the general named Zang Ba next to him, this person is of medium shape, with a good face, holding the handle of the knife in one hand, holding the reins in the other hand, looking around vigilantly, nodding from time to time to echo the military advisor.

“…… That's probably it, Cao Cao didn't take the opportunity to cover up, it seems that he is also on guard, and now he is hanging in the rear and slowly advancing, and we can only rely on Xiapi City to defend it and wear down the enemy's morale......"

"Well, I also heard that Wen Hou was brave that day, but Cao Cao, who came upside down to kill, abandoned the camp and fled..... but unfortunately Xiapi was surrounded, and he failed to do his best after all, Wen Hou treated his family well, and it was reasonable to save him."

On horseback, the two of them talked verbally, and they were almost at the mountain pass, and there was a monotonous sound of horses' hooves on the road down the mountain in front of them, and a cavalryman turned back, and when he saw the two, he said the situation: "The lord ordered the military division and General Zang to hurry over and converge, and immediately relieve the siege of Pi as soon as it was dawn." ”

"Well, you reply to Wen Hou, we'll be there in a moment." Zang Ba sent the cavalryman away, and turned around: "It seems that there are no ambushes, so speed up the march, and the military division will also be tired." ”

Chen Gong smiled and arched his hand: "Although I am a literati, I can also carry a three-foot Qingfeng and go into battle to kill the enemy, the general should not take care of it, and give the order to speed up the march." ”

With this team into the valley, in addition to Zang Ba, Cao Xing, Song Xian and other generals, there are also middle-level generals, such as Zang Ba's original generals Wu Dun, Yin Li, Chang Xuan, Sun Guan and others, there are also Xu Xi, Mao Hui, Li Feng, Xue Lan and so on who took refuge with Lu Bu when he attacked Yanzhou, etc., the rear of the team is the entire Lu Bu army in addition to the wolf cavalry of the state, the most controversial and combat power of the trap camp Gao Shun, more than 700 people under the command of this person followed Lu Bu to fight in the south and the north, and everyone has a formidable battle scar on their bodies.

In the cold wind of the early morning, the team has gone deep into the hills, and the leaves in the surrounding forests are moving, and Zang Ba, who is moving forward, looks back at the winding rear team is still on the road outside the valley, and can't help frowning, listening to the sound of the swaying branches of the mountains and forests, and can't help but be vigilant.

He reined in his horse and stopped by the roadside, and the soldiers passed by, and over there, Chen Gong looked at him: "General Zang, what is this .....?" Before he finished speaking, the grass nearby shook suddenly, Zang Ba pulled his bow and arrows, the strings trembled, and a black shadow flew out of his hand and shot in.

The deer screamed mournfully—

A female deer fell and pounced. Chen Gong laughed and let go of the hilt of the sword he was pressing, "The general is good at archery, and he can eat venison for breakfast now." ”

With a wave of his hand, let a soldier go and bring back the deer that didn't have long eyes.

…….

"Dead Deer...... Dead end......"

In the dense mountains and forests, Gongsun Zhi sat on the bluestone with a golden knife, his eyes looked at the figure running below to pick up the dead deer, and slowly raised his hand......

……..

A soldier ran over and picked up the deer that had been shot to death, ran to the two of them, and was about to speak, when a shout of "wow-" rang out, and an arrow flew over a distance at the same time as the sound suddenly sounded, and the soldier's neck burst into snowflakes, and the arrow pierced his neck and shot the whole person down in front of the horse of the Chen Palace, and the dead deer on his shoulder rolled to the ground.

The change suddenly arose, and in the entire team, Chen Gong was stunned for a moment, and then in the next second, Zang Ba pulled out his long knife and roared: "Enemy attack!" The nearby soldiers also shouted: "There are ambushes, be careful-" "Array....Hurry! ”

In the sight of the firelight, the forest swayed wildly, and the overlapping figures rushed down from the slopes on both sides, this was the more than 10,000 surrendered soldiers under Zhang Xun before, here and now, with this narrow terrain, it couldn't be better, behind them was the black mountain rider who got off the horse, running fast with wild footsteps, and then, crashing into the team of the long dragon, the knife light waved down piece by piece.

Countless swords collided, killed, and arrows flew into the sky, and as he ran, Xiahoudun held a gun and shouted: "Kill them all-"

"Kill—"

Zhang Fei was caught in the crowd, galloped down on horseback, and roared like thunder: "Kill!" ”

Countless rushing figures were forced to spread down, colliding with the enemy on the road below, the crazy sound of the weapon exchange rose to the point of chilling hair at that moment, and the infantry under the command of Zang Ba on the periphery was suddenly attacked, and was destroyed and cut down by the crazy soldiers who spread out, and on the whole line, the broken corpses with blood lines continued to fall on both sides.

In front of a small array of several soldiers, galloping horses attacked, jumped out of the hillside, on horseback, a big gun roared and swept across, smashing those figures to the ground, Xiahoudun pulled out the head of the spear from a corpse, turned around and stabbed it directly into the head of the enemy soldier who rushed in, blood and white viscous liquid splashed out from the back of the head.

At the same time, in the chaotic procession, a figure dodged in the crowd, staring at the enemy general on horseback, and at the moment when the other party drew his spear, he drew his bow and arrows—

The arrow whizzed past the side of the head of a walking soldier, and shot directly at the door of the man with a violent breaking sound, Xiahoudun turned his face, drew his gun, and the arrow grazed the round hilt, deviated a little, and at a certain moment, brought up a blood flower.

"Uh-uh-uh......."

On the horseback, the sturdy figure curled slightly, covered his face with one hand, and when he looked up, half of the arrows were exposed, and blood flowed out along the gaps between his fingers, and the intact one-eyed scarlet stared at the sneak attack figure, and then ....... pulled out the eyeballs that pierced the arrows on it.

Take a bite into your mouth and chew.

"Uh-uh...... Ahhhhh

Like a violent tiger roaring, Xiahoudun's big gun also swept over with a violent roar, the war horse spread its hooves and galloped, and the figures blocking the road were knocked away by him, killing the man——
