Originally, Jiang Qi and Zhao Yun made an agreement that he would attack head-on to attract the enemy's main force, and then Zhao Yun would lead a thousand cavalry under his command to break into the Chinese army and behead Li Dao, Guo Yan and others.

However, because Li Wei never used all the soldiers and horses, Zhao Yun, who was hiding in the shadows, waited anxiously for a long time, but still saw the rebels' Chinese army camp crowded with men and horses, and there was no sign of reduction.

Looking at the situation, there are more than 10,000 rebels in the Chinese army's battalion, and he only has 1,000 cavalry, and in the face of an enemy ten times his size, if he rashly attacks, no matter what the victory or defeat, his side will inevitably suffer great losses.

At this time, Jiang Qi had already led people into the rebel camp, and it was impossible to find someone to contact him for instructions on the next step. This requires Zhao Yun to make a decision on the spot: whether to stay where he is and wait and see what happens, or launch an attack according to the original plan.

On the one hand, when the shrunken turtle loses the sense of honor of the soldiers, on the other hand, it is to risk the lives of the soldiers under his command to complete an impossible task.

Zhao Yun was faced with a difficult choice.

After thinking about it again and again, he took a deep breath, his eyes were like torches, and his eyes burst out with incomparable determination.

Riding his horse, he came to the soldiers, scanning each one of them. All the soldiers watched him silently, waiting for their lord to say the choice that would determine their fate.

When Zhao Yun first joined the Xiyuan Army, not everyone agreed with him, and many people felt that he could become a captain of the Xiyuan Military Academy entirely because he was a nepotism of Jiang Qi's brother. However, in a short period of time, Zhao Yun relied on his personal bravery and benevolent character to change others' perceptions of him.

Tonight, he will once again prove to everyone what he is capable of as a good general.

Zhao Yun opened his mouth to speak: "We devote ourselves to the military and kill the enemy for the country, but we are often despised by the scholars and regarded us as vulgar warriors. But Your Majesty knows our loyalty, and we are all paid abundantly, and our clothes are all warm. Treating us so well is nothing more than hoping that we can serve the country loyally and kill the enemy bravely. Now the thieves are in front, and Jiang Zhonglang is leading our comrades to fight bravely. If we are afraid of the enemy and do not move forward, and abandon our comrades and brothers who have killed the enemy in front of us, how can we be worthy of Your Majesty's kindness and the expectations of the people, and you will talk about loyalty and righteousness all day long, will it not become empty talk? ”

Zhao Yun's voice was not loud, but the words were in his ears and shocking. The Xiyuan Army was taught by the "mentor" of the Propaganda Society, and was extremely loyal to Liu Wei, the "Red Sun" of the Han Empire. After Zhao Yun's encouragement, the crowd was suddenly excited, and shouted in unison: "Be loyal to Your Majesty!" Die for Your Majesty! ”

Seeing that the morale was available, Zhao Yun nodded slightly, raised the spear in his hand, and turned the horse's head.

"Kill the enemy for the country, although death is still glorious!"

With an angry shout, Zhao Yun galloped on his horse, and the white-robed and silver armor rushed towards the camp of the Xiliang Army as if silver light was pouring down on a moonlit night.

The soldiers behind him did not hesitate and rushed after him......

Li Wei was paying attention to Jiang Qi's men and horses in front of him at this time, and he didn't expect that there would be a big chaos behind him, and a cavalry broke into the camp and hit the back of the Xiliang army.

Li Wei was in a panic for a while, and he didn't know how many men and horses Zhao Yun had, thinking that he had encountered a flank attack from most of the army, so he divided the army into half to intercept Zhao Yun's attack, and lost the last opportunity to attack Jiang Qi.

Zhao Yun's cavalry was violently blocked as expected, and the cavalry impact relied on the impact of a blow, and Zhao Yun's cavalry lost the potential energy of the impact under the resistance of a large number of soldiers and horses of the Xiliang army, and became entangled with the Xiliang army. The cavalry that stopped in place was extremely passive and dangerous, Zhao Yun's tiger eyes widened, he shouted, the spear in his hand burst left and right, the enemy army was unstoppable, Zhao Yun took the opportunity to kill a bloody road, and gradually approached Li Dao, who was commanding outside the tent of the Chinese military camp, and the distance between the two was soon a hundred steps away.

For Zhao Yun, this distance is enough.

Zhao Yun lightly stretched his ape arm, stretched his bow and set up arrows, and the iron bow was full of strings like a full moon. With a whoosh, a sharp arrow came out of the string, like a meteor through the moon and headed straight for Li Dao.

Li Dao was busy directing the soldiers, and he did not notice the approach of death in the slightest. Just as the arrow was about to hit him, a knight suddenly appeared in front of Li Dao, and the arrow passed through the knight's chest, and the knight fell under the horse with an "ah".

Li Dao was shocked at this time, subconsciously lowered his head, and the sharp arrow hit his helmet, Li Dao raised his head again, and his head was scattered in an instant.

When the surrounding soldiers of the Xiyuan Army saw Zhao Yun shoot off Li Wei's helmet with an arrow, they all shouted with cheers: "Zhao Sima Shenbow is invincible!" ”

Although he didn't know whether the knight was passing by unintentionally, or whether he was intentionally sacrificing himself to save the Savior, Zhao Yun saw that he couldn't strike a blow, and the other Xiliang troops had already protected Li Dao's group, and knew that it was impossible to do anything, so he had to turn his horse's head angrily and lead the soldiers to roar away.

Li Wei, who was shot off his helmet and lost face, felt extremely angry and hurriedly sent troops to chase after him.

Since Zhao Yun became a lieutenant of the military academy, with the support of Liu Wei, he spent a lot of effort to train all the more than 1,000 people in the military camp into cavalry who came and went. This cavalry is characterized by its speed like the wind, and its attack can sweep the ground like a violent wind, destroying the withering and decaying; Retreating is like flowing water, and no one can stop it. And their other stunt is good archery, as for how good their archery is, the Xiliang army who came to chase soon tasted the bitterness.

Zhao Yun and the others, who were running away on horses, suddenly turned around and pulled their bows and arrows, and shot wildly at the Xiliang army chasing behind.

Shooting an arrow on a moving horse is not that easy, let alone suddenly turning around and shooting enemies behind you. The cavalry in the upper barracks made a lot of hard work for this.

Originally, it was a very cool thing to pursue the enemy who exposed them behind him, but the Xiliang rebels did not expect to pay such a big price. The group of pursuing rebels was shot down in an instant, and they no longer dared to get too close to Zhao Yun and the others, but just followed behind them and waved their flags and shouted, as if they were seeing Zhao Yun off.

However, to their surprise, the cavalry in front of them did not escape from the camp, but plunged directly into the northeast of the camp.

Zhao Yun didn't care about the cavalry chasing behind him at all, the reason why he didn't return from the original way was just to use the mobility of his cavalry to make a big fuss in the camp of the Xiliang rebels.

didn't walk for long, and ran into Chen Wei's Chinese military camp. Like him, they were chased from behind their butts.

Chen Wei was originally ordered to burn the enemy's grain and grass, but he didn't expect to meet Yang Ding, Hu Chi'er and others who came to protect the grain and grass before he could touch the place.

met on a narrow road, and everyone was stunned for a while and then instantly understood each other's intentions. Without saying a word, the two sides immediately fought in one place.

Yang Ding was also a fierce general in the Xiliang army, and he brought more soldiers and horses than Chen Wei, and Chen Wei, who was at a disadvantage, was defeated soon after a fierce battle.

Chen Wei is also a good man in the Xiyuan Army - naturally he didn't want to suffer immediate losses, and urgently ordered the soldiers of the whole battalion to throw out all the remaining grenades. Taking advantage of the black smoke, when the enemy army was dizzy by the bombing for a while, he immediately led people to run towards Jiang Qi's army.

Yang Ding and the others were willing to let them go easily, and after taking a little breath, they chased after them desperately.

Although he was also chased from behind, Zhao Yun was much easier than Chen Wei. The pursuers behind him were afraid of the cavalry and archery ability of the barracks, and basically only tailgated. Chen Wei saw Zhao Yun galloping towards him, and hurriedly called out to him for help: "Zhao Sima save me!" ”

Zhao Yun rode his horse to Chen Wei's side and replied, "Captain Chen, don't worry. ”

Chen Wei gasped for breath beside Zhao Yun with relief, pointed behind him, and said, "There are enemy soldiers chasing me?" ”

Zhao Yunhu's eyes widened, and he saw a rebel army biting the tail of the Chinese military camp, and one of the rebel generals was very strong, with yellow hair and a shawl, bare-chested, holding a big axe, shouting and fighting.

"Who is this?" Zhao Yun pointed with one hand and asked coldly.

"Hu Chi'er, the traitor!"

As soon as Chen Wei's words fell, Zhao Yun's arrow had already been shot. The sharp arrow hit Hu Chi'er's throat and nailed him to the ground.

Zhao Yun then shot three more people in succession, and the other rebels were frightened by his divine bow and did not dare to approach, so Zhao Yun and the others calmly left and joined Jiang Qi's large army.

After several divisions, Li Dao's troops had been dismantled and scattered, and they could no longer effectively organize themselves to resist the Xiyuan Army.

Seeing that the defeat was decided, the helpless Li Dao had no choice but to lead the rest of the troops to abandon the camp. However, before leaving, he ordered Zhang Ji and Yang Ding to stay behind and cover their retreat.

This was completely to let Zhang Ji and them go as substitutes for the dead ghosts, but although Zhang Ji was angry in his heart, he didn't dare to disobey Li Ji's order, so he had to lead his troops to stay behind to contain the pursuing Xiyuan Army with hatred.

Zhang Ji and Yang Ding's soldiers were few, how could they resist the Xiyuan army who was excited, seeing that the surrounding troops were killing more and more, and their own troops were getting fewer and fewer, and they gradually fell into encirclement.

At this time, Zhang Ji's nephew Zhang Xiu came to his side and said loudly to him: "Uncle, this place cannot stay for a long time, and my nephew is willing to fight here to protect his uncle from leaving." ”

Zhang Xiu's parents died when he was young, and he has been raised by Zhang Ji's side, Zhang Ji has no children, so he regards Zhang Xiu as his own child. The relationship between the uncle and nephew has always been very good, Zhang Xiu is willing to exchange his life for Zhang Ji's escape in order to repay Zhang Ji's nurturing kindness, but how can Zhang Ji bear to abandon Zhang Xiu?

Zhang Ji sighed and said, "You are still young, why sacrifice your life in vain." Take people away quickly, uncle is willing to cut off the queen for you! ”

Zhang Xiu was in a hurry and shouted: "Uncle's nurturing grace is more important than Mount Tai, if I abandon my uncle and leave, this life will be in vain!" Now I wish to die with my uncle! ”

Zhang Ji couldn't bear to send the only bloodline of the Zhang family here, and angrily reprimanded Zhang Xiu and said: "Xiu'er is stupid! Only those who stay useful can make a difference, and they can't stay here to do anything! ”

Zhang Xiu didn't listen and insisted on asking Zhang Ji to leave. When the uncle and nephew were arguing, a cold arrow suddenly shot over, Zhang Xiu didn't pay attention, and the arrow was shot off the horse.

Zhang Ji was shocked and let out a mournful scream.

The surrounding Xiyuan army had already surrounded him.
