Chapter 121: Ambushed
"General Zhang, let's withdraw, it'll be too late if we don't leave!"
After killing several Jiangdong generals, there were less than twenty generals left around Zhang Xiu; Even those Xiliang Jing Riders only had less than two thousand riders left. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
And, in the constant fighting, this number is further decreasing.
At this time, Zhang Xiu and the twenty or so people had already broken through the encirclement and were on the edge of the battlefield, as long as they withdrew, they could escape.
Even if the Jiangdong generals wanted to chase them, the vast majority of them were caught in the fight and couldn't get out.
Looking back at the entire battlefield, Zhang Xiu knew that their defeat was inevitable, but he Zhang Xiu didn't want to follow those Xiliang elite cavalry to accompany the funeral, even if he was a prisoner of the Guanqi army, Zhang Xiu didn't want to.
The spear swept, Zhang Xiu killed several Jiangdong cavalry who were blocking the way, and said loudly: "Withdraw!" ”
After that, Zhang Xiu turned their horses' heads and fled directly to the reinforcement station of the Xiliang Army, as for the remaining remnants of the Xiliang Army behind them, whether they fought or surrendered, it was none of his business Zhang Xiu.
After all, these Xiliang Jing Riders are not his Zhang Xiu's capital, and if he folds some of them, Zhang Xiu is not distressed at all.
If it weren't for the fear of being charged with fleeing without a fight, Zhang Xiu would have wanted to flee a long time ago when the Jiangdong cavalry chased him.
Now, flee back to the reinforcement camp, Zhang Xiu doesn't have to worry about any crimes.
They fought hard before they escaped from the encirclement! As for those Xiliang Jingqi who followed them, Zhang Xiu could completely bite the bullet, and they all fought hard for Dong Xiangguo's career!
……
The general's mount has no fatigue or hunger; As long as the generals can withstand it, they will run and fight for three or five days in a row, and they will still be abnormally handsome.
Therefore, Zhang Xiu and the others were bent on escaping, but the Jiangdong cavalry couldn't stop them at all.
Even if there were Jiangdong generals who had their hands free and wanted to chase and kill Zhang Xiu, they couldn't catch Zhang Xiu's spear.
When the gains outweighed the losses, Sun Jian had to take the Jiangdong cavalry to strangle the remaining Xiliang army as soon as possible, while trying his best to collect the ownerless war horses.
After all, Sun Jian hurriedly chased out with the Jiangdong cavalry, wasn't it for those war horses of the Xiliang Army?
Only Cheng Pu, Huang Gai, Han Dang and Zu Mao, relying on their super strength, still followed Zhang Xiu and them to chase and kill.
When a general's level is stuck between level 10 and level 15, it is rare to have any powerful mounts.
Whether it's [White Stone], [Shalifei], or [White Crane], the additional speed is about the same.
Zhang Xiu's is [Sha Lifei], Cheng Pu's is not [Baishi], it is also [Sha Lifei] or the like, everyone's speed is half a catty.
Zhang Xiu wanted to get rid of the pursuit of Cheng Pu and the other four, and he couldn't get rid of it no matter how he turned or detoured; Cheng Pu and they want to catch up with Zhang Xiu and others, which is also the result of a fool's dream.
Zhang Xiu also wanted to turn around and fight, and solve the four of Cheng Pu.
But Zhang Xiu asked himself, with his strength, he could win any of Cheng Pu's four, but he couldn't take it down in a short time.
And once he was entangled by the two Jiangdong generals, Zhang Xiu was only tired of coping.
Zhang Xiu didn't think that the more than ten Xiliang generals who followed him would be able to kill the remaining two Jiangdong generals.
Zhang Xiu's own strength is outstanding, but the Xiliang generals who follow him are just ordinary.
Zhang Xiu himself can beat them five, six, seven or eight, but the Jiangdong generals behind him are Cheng Pu's four people, abusing these twenty Xiliang generals, isn't it like playing?
Although the four of Cheng Pu are not very famous, Zhang Xiu can see at a glance what their strength is in the battle just now.
What is the strength of the top generals?
That's an expert who can tell if there is one as soon as he makes a move!
With such a calculation, Zhang Xiu had no choice but to let Cheng Pu and them follow and flee to the reinforcement camp.
At least, in the reinforcement camp, there is also a strong Zhang Liao, who can fight against one of the four Jiangdong generals behind him.
There are also nearly 20,000 foot soldiers, who can also besiege and kill these four Jiangdong generals.
……
In the Guanzhong area, although the terrain is gentle, it is not without mountains, forests and hills.
Between the pursuit and escape, seeing that there was only a dozen miles away, he was about to approach the reinforcement camp of the Xiliang Army, but there was a small hill blocking the front.
This small hill, Zhang Xiu and they have passed by several times, so they naturally know that they only need to ride around it.
As they had done before, Zhang Xiu and the others bypassed the small hill and continued to the reinforcement camp, not noticing that this small hill was any different from the previous ones.
Zhang Xiu was three or five hundred steps away behind them, and Cheng Pu and the other four people who were chasing from a distance didn't think there was any danger in this small hill.
After all, they chased and fled along the way, passing through similar small hills, not ten but eight, and there was no problem.
When Cheng Pu and the four of them, like Zhang Xiu and them, wanted to speed their horses around the hills, a loud shout suddenly sounded:
"Shoot the arrows!"
In an instant, a rain of arrows flew out of the dense forest of this small hill, covering the four Cheng Pu who were caught off guard.
Cheng Pu's martial arts are good in themselves, and as a general, although they were caught off guard by the rain of arrows, they also showed the demeanor of a top general.
Long knives and spears flew, whether it was Cheng Pu or Huang Gai, or Han Dang and Zu Mao, the weapons in their hands all danced together, and most of the arrows that were shot at them were knocked away.
Even if there are arrows that don't have time to fly, they will choose to use the parts of their bodies that are not very important to block one or two arrows.
The strength of the top generals can be seen at this time.
It's just that in the grove on the hill, since there are crossbowmen in ambush, the rain of arrows fired is definitely not one or two rounds.
The continuous rain of arrows did not stop at all, and as Cheng Pu and the four moved forward quickly, the rain of arrows always enveloped them.
After two or three breaths, Cheng Pu and the four finally escaped from the hill two or three hundred steps away.
At this distance, except for the bed crossbow that can threaten them, ordinary bows and crossbows can't shoot so far.
However, the four Cheng Pu who escaped from the rain of arrows were quite embarrassed. Each of them had a dozen arrows stuck in them, to say the least.
Fortunately, these arrows were all inserted in places that were not very important, otherwise they would have gone to Gaozu to report a long time ago.
Even if there is nothing wrong with the little ones, the blood that comes out of their bodies is terrifying.
Fortunately, they are military generals, if they are ordinary soldiers, just shedding so much blood is enough to make them fatal.
At this time, the four of Cheng Pu's injuries were not light or serious, and the injuries on their bodies looked very embarrassing, but they lost more than half of their physical strength.
If they make a detour and turn back, or run away in any way, they will still have the strength to spare.
But it was clear that it was impossible for the ambushers to let them go.
At least, it's impossible for them to leave so safely!
Now that you're here, you have to leave something behind, right?
This is the idea of Xu Rong, the temporary commander of the Xiliang Army, who was ambushed in the mountains and forests!
