CHAPTER 52 SORTIE
Cao Chun fell to the ground, fortunately he reached out in time to hold it up, and then rolled on the spot to resolve the force of the fall, but he felt that something was pushed up between the ribs, and the rib was as if it was about to break. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Struggling to stand up in pain, Cao Chun only saw many cavalry and war horses tumbling to the ground and rolling into a pile, both men and horses were struggling in pain, and the person who flew over his head first was already lying motionless on the ground at the moment, a sharpened tree just inserted into his mouth and penetrated from the back of his neck, and the blood was still gushing out.
Wen Ping rushed to the front safely, and when he heard the movement behind him, he quickly turned around and dismounted to help Cao Chun.
Cao Chun pushed Wen Ping's hand away: "I'm fine, let's see what's wrong." ”
Wen Ping asked the rider behind him to help up the fallen man and the horse, and when he helped a horse with the highest scream, everyone found that the horse's left forefoot had been broken, Bai Sensen's leg bones and blood were dripping, and the horse was struggling on the ground in pain.
Cao Chun hurriedly asked someone to clean up the surrounding road and found a deep hole with blood, it seems that the horse's leg was stuck in that hole and was broken alive.
Seeing the straight and deep hole, Cao Chun must have been dug artificially, tigers and leopards had ridden on the grassland to fight, and knew that the otter holes in the grassland would cause damage to the galloping horses, but this was in the plain area, and it was on a relatively hard avenue, there could be no such mouse holes! Hurriedly instructed everyone: "Get off the horse and clean up the weeds on this road first!" ”
When the road surface was cleared, Cao Chun let the number count, there were a total of thirty or forty deep holes on the road ten zhang away, the number was not much, but the cavalry impact speed was fast, and it could not be dispersed on such a narrow road, once a horse was trapped in it and fell, the people and horses behind would rush forward due to inertia, and a large piece of it would fall, and there were so many sharp branches scattered on the road, which could aggravate the damage caused to the fallen people and horses.
A count of the men and horses showed that more than thirty horsemen had tripped in all, half of whom were dead and seriously wounded. Cao Chun gritted his teeth with hatred, this tiger and leopard rider is a fine horse carefully selected by himself, just after seeing the shadow of the enemy, he fell into a trick and suffered such a big loss, those guys really deserve death!
Looking up, the dozens of enemy horsemen who were still laying barricades just now had already run away, thinking of their panicked escape, Cao Chun thought that the enemy should not have had time to set a trap in front of him, and immediately gave the order to go down, leaving a dozen or so men to take care of the wounded, and the rest of the people appropriately distanced themselves to continue to chase, and they must capture the guys just now.
Because of the pain in his ribs, Cao Chun had to slow down his horse while rubbing it first, let Wen Ping lead the way and lead everyone to continue to chase, and kept telling the cavalry who overtook him: "Pull a little distance, pay attention to the road in front, and stop first when you see a suspicious situation!" ”
There was nothing suspicious along the way, they soon saw Zhao Yun's department still running in front, since the enemy was galloping on the road, naturally there would be no traps on the road, and they could chase and kill at a gallop.
The tiger and leopard rode all the way up a slope, and saw that Zhao Yun's dozens of horsemen had gone down to the bottom of the slope, and on the opposite slope, it seemed that the fortifications had been built, and there were many sergeants waiting there, and a tall and mighty man was greeting Zhao Yun and his party in the middle of the slope: "Zilong, don't worry, I Zhang Fei is here!" ”
As soon as Wen Ping saw that he had encountered a large army of the enemy, he asked everyone to stop and sent someone to the back to inform Cao Chun.
As soon as Cao Chun came to the front of the army, he saw Zhang Fei holding a spear and raising his arms on the opposite side of the slope and shouting: "I am Yan Zhang Yide, who will fight me to the death!" ”
Cao Chun recognized it as Zhang Fei, and knew that this guy had a loud voice, and his ears were buzzing so far away, since Zhang Fei was here, then Liu Bei should be in front, the big war was about to start, first see the surrounding situation clearly.
Zhang Fei saw that the enemy did not move, and according to what Ge Liang said just now, he jumped on his horse and shouted with a gun: "Zhang Fei is here, come and fight me to the death!" ”
Seeing Zhang Fei so strong, the tigers and leopards couldn't help but feel a little faintly frightened, they had been fighting for many years, and it was the first time they had seen such a person who dared to face the tigers and leopards and immediately blocked the road with a horizontal gun.
Cao Chun knew that Zhang Fei was brave, but he was absolutely confident in the impact of his tiger and leopard ride, and just last year he defeated Karasuma Badun's tens of thousands of cavalry to kill the head of Ton, but now this Zhang Fei is so rampant, will there be any traps? Hurriedly asked Wen Ping: "Is this how the people we chased just now let their horses go all the way and escaped?" ”
Wen Ping didn't see it, and the cavalry who rushed to the front told Cao Chun: "When we arrived at the top of this slope, they had already rushed to that Zhang Fei. ”
Cao Chun nodded, then it should be no problem to let the horse go down this long downhill slope.
Zhang Fei couldn't wait to start shouting the third sentence: "Fight and don't fight, retreat and don't retreat, but why!" ”
Fight! Cao Chun pulled out his knife and pointed forward: "You see, the opposite slope is not very high, if we let the horse rush down from here, relying on the horse's impact speed, we can rush to the top of the opposite slope in one breath!" No matter how powerful he Zhang Fei is, he can't help but trample on my thousands of iron horses! Liu Bei is in front, and he has succeeded in doing this in one move, listen to my command, and kill! ”
"Kill!" The tigers and leopards showed their swords and rushed down the slope.
"Kill!" Zhao Yun, who had just retreated back to construction, also led the infantry and rode shouting and rushed down from the opposite side.
Ge Liang stood at the top of the slope, looking at the tiger and leopard riders who were constantly surging up to the top of the slope and hitting down like a tide, the loud shouts and rumbling horses' hooves seemed to make the whole world tremble! Thinking that in the past, he and his classmates shouted that they wanted to go to the grassland to watch thousands of horses galloping, but now they have actually arrived on this ancient battlefield, and the impact of this primitive wildness makes him feel that blood is about to spurt out of his entire body.
At this time, Wei Yan, who had already dug a horse trap in front and retreated, received good news from the outpost: "There is a small group of Cao cavalry in front, it seems that most of them are injured, and there are dead men and dead horses lying on the ground. ”
Wei Yan almost jumped up, grabbed the sentry detective, and asked repeatedly: "How many people?" How many horses? How far away? ”
The sentinel reported: "Less than three miles ahead, more than 30 people, more than 30 horses, it seems that wounded soldiers and wounded horses account for the majority." ”
"Great!" Wei Yan let go of the sentry scout and rubbed his hands desperately, "It's good if there is a team left behind, it's not in vain that Lao Tzu has worked hard to run." Brothers, let's grab some horses to ride! ”
