CHAPTER 53 Consumed

The tiger and leopard rode down, and Zhao Yun on the opposite side led the army to rush downward, as if the two sides were about to collide violently at the foot of the slope, but Zhao Yun led the army to stop when they rushed to Zhang Fei's side. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

The tiger and leopard riding forward was puzzled, and suddenly found that the ground in front of him had fallen into the sand because of the kicking and shaking of ten thousand horses, revealing several deep holes, and hurriedly wanted to hold the reins, but this quickly rushed down the slope, where was it said that it could be stopped, and suddenly the horse stepped on the deep hole and turned over and fell to the ground, and the person was the whole "Whew!" The ground flew out, gliding through the air for a few moments before falling to the ground, and the flesh was blurred and died on the spot.

Facing behind him, at the same time, several horses have stepped into the hole, and suddenly people turn over on their backs, and then there are fast horses rushing forward to collide, trample, roll, and crush, even if there is a quick reaction to want to restrain the horse, but behind the iron horse is like a rolling torrent, where can it stop? If you want to dodge to the right side of the road, the right side is a high slope of the mountain, and you can't step on it at all, and if you want to avoid it to the left, because the left side of the road is a steep hillside overgrown with trees, you can't rush in at all.

Cao Chun, who was standing at the top of the slope and commanding, saw his cavalry once again perform the flying arhats, and his heart was suddenly like a knife, and he hurriedly shouted loudly: "Stop, stop!" Stop! ”

By the time the large army finally came to a halt, a wall of flesh had risen at the bottom of the slope that was made of two or three hundred horsemen, and at this time, Zhang Fei and Zhao Yun led their teams to rush over, stabbing and stabbing the half-dead cavalry one by one, and some archers stepped on the human wall, and the arrows rained down on the panicked Cao cavalry. Cao Jun turned his horse's head and retreated to the slope.

Cao Ren's eyes were red, and he asked repeatedly: "Didn't you say that their own people had just rushed down on horseback?" Why didn't they step on the trap? Who the hell said that the people who saw them rushed down? Damn, we have been fooled in a row for the same trap! ”

The questioned rider retreated again and again, and his heart was not what I said, and the person who said this was afraid that he was now in the pile of dead people below.

Here, Ge Liang stood on the slope and shook the goose feather fan happily, hahaha, I let Zhao Yun and them run close to the right side of the road, who called you so many people, the road is crowded, blame me!

Zhang Fei was there that he had killed too few enemies just now, and then he stood on top of the pile of dead people and began to raise his arms and shout loudly: "Yanren Zhang Fei is here, who will fight me to the death!" ”

Cao Chun's teeth were about to be crushed, but he still emphasized that he had to calm down, although he lost more than three hundred horsemen, but for five thousand tigers and leopards to ride, it can also be ignored, according to Prime Minister Cao's calculations and the number of Liu Beijun's men and horses in front of him, Liu Bei should be not far ahead, even if he can't catch Liu Bei, at least he must crush the enemy army in front and quickly rush to Jiangling. Right! Calm down! Well, it's getting dark, and the mountain breeze is blowing just right, calm down!

Zhang Fei shouted twice and saw that the other party did not move, looked around, pulled out a Cao Jun who was lying on the ground and was not yet dead, stepped on his feet, took out a leather whip and shouted while fighting: "Fight and don't fight, retreat and don't retreat, but why!" ”

Zhang Fei's roar, the whipping of the whip, the wail of the beaten sergeant, and the corpses of people and war horses all over the ground below, the darkness that was about to fall into the night, all tortured the will of the Cao army, and finally someone couldn't hold it anymore, bowed his head and muttered: "Let's withdraw first!" ”

"Can't be withdrawn!" Cao Chun stood up suddenly, he couldn't wait any longer, if he continued like this, his fighting spirit would be gone, "Don't rush when the cavalry is going downhill, slowly approach them, so that even if there is a hole in the ground, the horses will automatically avoid it, and it won't cause any damage!" The rest, dismount and fight! Our Haw Par Riders are the elite selected from all over the place! Aren't Liu Bei's troops on the other side all infantry? Without horses, our tiger and leopard riding is still elite! Without horses, we can also go up the mountains and attack through the forest! Everyone dismounts and fights with them on foot! ”

The cavalry dismounted, abandoned their spears, drew their swords, and began to advance slowly from the road, from the bushes by the roadside.

At this time, Zhang Fei had already commanded the sergeant to pile up the corpses of Cao's soldiers and horses into a fleshy city wall, and when he saw that Cao's army was attacking again, he shouted: "Good come!" Together with Zhao Yun, he led the army to launch a fierce offensive and defensive battle with the enemy.

Zhang Fei's spear stabbed hard, and one shot was a hole in the chest; Zhao Yun is a silver spear flying, and the gun is sealed with a throat; The sergeants were condescending, spears stabbing indiscriminately, and arrows flying in unison.

Ge Liang saw Zhang Fei swinging a spear and stabbing into the chest of a Cao Jun in the back, and roared again, throwing the Cao Jun's body out and smashing it into the enemy's bushes, until Cao Jun fell down, seeing that the enemy did not dare to approach him for a while, he leaned over and grabbed a Cao Jun's corpse from his feet, and continued to smash it at the enemy.

Although the tiger and leopard cavalry is the elite who has experienced many big battles, but the night chase has long been exhausted, and now it is stepping on the corpse of his companion to attack on the back, plus Zhang Fei and Zhao Yun, two fierce generals blocking the way, after attacking for a while, after heavy casualties, finally couldn't hold it in their hearts, everyone shouted, leaving two hundred corpses and retreating to the slope again.

Wen Ping saw that the army was already cowardly, and persuaded Cao Chun: "It's better not to attack first, we are chasing too quickly, we have been hit by the enemy's trap and suffered heavy losses before the war started, and the first battle is not conducive to the morale of the big blow, it is better to consume it first." You see, they are just holding on to the danger, and they don't dare to take the initiative to attack us, so it's better for us to consume them first and bite them to death. According to the report that the prime minister received earlier, almost all the sergeants around Liu Bei are here, as long as we hold them back so that they can't run to occupy Jiangling, and wait for the follow-up troops to arrive, it will be considered a victory. ”

Cao Chun also had to admire the momentum of Zhang Fei and Zhao Yun when they fought just now, fortunately, this is a tiger and leopard ride, if it were replaced by other armies, I am afraid that it would have been so frightened that it would have collapsed, but it was so consumed that it was impossible to rush to Jiangling quickly, it was too embarrassing for the tiger and leopard to ride face! After hesitating for a long time, he asked Wen Ping: "Is there any other way to bypass it first and directly pursue Liu Bei?" ”

Wen Ping looked around, shook his head and said: "I am originally from Wancheng, Nanyang, and I have always been responsible for guarding the north under Liu Biao, although I have been to Jiangling a few times before, and I always take this avenue, and the trail is not familiar, and you see, it is about to get dark, and it is easy to get lost when you walk around, so it is better to stare at Liu Bei's army in front." ”

Cao Chun felt that it was the only way to do it for the time being, so let's wait and talk.

Twenty miles away, Liu Bei got the battle situation from the fast horse flying report. Xu Shu asked with some concern: "Cao Jun has more than 5,000 tigers and leopards, and Zhuge Liang and General Zhang are only 3,000 infantry, can they resist it?" ”
