The bleak wind whistled and blew, bringing the autumn obscurity of the end of September, and in the barren grass swaying with the wind, were the soldiers of the two armies who were fighting desperately, and the blood splashed from time to time, and was sprinkled to the side with the strong wind.

A piece of gold and blood red, just like the red-eyed soldiers of the two armies, they are clearly distinguished from each other, and they will be cut when they encounter the enemy!

Cao Ping saw this scene not far away, and hurriedly slapped his horse forward, blocking the enemy for Zhao Yue, and competed with Zhang Yan on the horse.

Zhao Yue was taken aback, hesitated slightly, and heard Cao Ping's shout in front of the red robe dancing in front of him: "Lord, this time is not the same as in the past, as the king of Qin in the imperial court, your status is the top priority, Shu Jingde can't let you take risks, the lord should take the overall situation first, and retreat quickly!" ”

Zhao Yue gritted his teeth, pulled out his horse and fled with an embarrassed face, and beheaded several people along the way, but it happened to meet Wang Kuang, who came to besiege him.

"Even a traitor, dare to stand in front of me?" Zhao Yue sat on the red rabbit horse, and the horizontal sword pointed at him and asked.

Wang Kuang said disdainfully: "Hmph, traitor? You are just a hairy child, when I was one of the princes of the Eighteen Roads of Kanto to ask Dong Zhuo, you didn't know where you were! ”

Zhao Yue was furious, slapped the horse forward, and was about to kill Wang Kuang, Wang Kuang was not afraid, and met him decisively, and the two of them began to move on the horse one by one.

Not far ahead, Cao Ping and Zhang Yan are also single-handed, Zhang Yan is a native of Hebei, born extremely majestic, but also a scene of long-term fighting, and rich in actual combat experience, from the Yellow Turban Rebellion to the present, he is also regarded as Hebei's No. 1 famous general, but he calls himself a bandit, so the name is not like the double pillar, widely spread by the world.

At this time, Cao Ping was already sweating profusely, and he was overwhelmed with moves.

He is not Zhang Yan's opponent, for him, Zhang Yan is really a terrifying existence!

"This little bit of martial arts, dare to be a general in the court?" Zhang Yan shouted coldly, the knife in his left hand struggled to stop and slash at Cao Ping, Cao Ping panicked, but still did not forget to block the blow with the gun, Zhang Yan raised his right hand, pinned the knife in his right hand to the other side of Cao Ping's spear, and with both hands, he directly flew Cao Ping's weapon rack into the air.

The spear swirled in the air with a sharp sound.

Seeing this, Cao Ping didn't think much about it, pulled out the horse and ran, behind him, Zhang Yan flashed the falling spear sideways, and chased after him with a horse.

Here, Zhao Yue and Wang Kuang fought to a tie, just as Cao Ping rushed over, Zhao Yue said loudly: "Jingde, take down this thief together!" ”

Cao Ping didn't have a weapon in his hand, and he knew that Zhang Yan was behind, and he really didn't want to die here, but a belief was supporting him in his heart, and his originally wandering eyes became firm at this time, "Lord, go quickly, Zhang Yan is behind me, you go quickly, I will deal with them alone!" ”

When Zhao Yue heard this, she turned around in horror, and sure enough, she found that Zhang Yan's two scimitars were waving behind Cao Ping, and they were only less than a fist away from Cao Ping's back.

"Damn!" Zhao Yue had no choice but to find a way to escape, and then look at the thousands of people and horses brought here, because of the ambush, the morale plummeted, and the combat effectiveness was weak, there were less than a thousand people left, where could he still gather to cover his retreat.

He could only flee as a horse.

Wang Kuang saw that Zhao Yue was leaving, and shot Zhao Yue in the back, "The yellow-haired child who has not dried up, where to run!" ”

The tip of the spear was sharp and shiny, but at the moment when it was about to stab Zhao Yue, Wang Kuang felt a force to press the head of the gun, and turned his head to see that it was the red-robed young general under Zhao Yue who held the barrel of his gun with both hands.

"It's a little hairy boy again!" Wang Kuang screamed, and was about to exert his strength, but suddenly heard Cao Ping shouting, and the gun in his hand was out of his control.

It turned out that Zhang Yan had already caught up with Cao Ping, and at the moment when Cao Ping sat on the horse and leaned forward, he swung his knife and slashed at Cao Ping, but fortunately, Cao Ping leaned forward, and the blade that originally slashed into the back of his head only sank into his back at this time.

Cao Ping only felt as if his back was torn, ten thousand pains, unbearable, his legs couldn't stop, he fell straight off the horse, and coughed up a mouthful of blood in his mouth, he felt as if there was a lot of blood pouring into his chest, and the whole person had a feeling that his life was imminent.

In a trance, Cao Ping remembered the last time he was seriously injured like this, it was in Pinggang, he was afraid of death, so he left Zhao Yue and ran away alone......

But at this time, he definitely can't be like last time. Indeed, he is the only son in the family, and it is true that as long as he is a human being, facing death, fear will sprout from the bottom of his heart.

But after so long, from following Wang Jian as the second commander in the barren mountains, gathering in the mountains and forests, to meeting Zhao Yue again, governing Luoyang for him, and conquering Hongnong with him...... Cao Ping has forgotten what an only son is and what it means to be afraid of death.

If Zhao Yue's growth is to give up, and Zhang Duan's growth is stubbornness, then Cao Ping's growth is forgetting.

He forgot the so-called hometown, forgot the heart of Hebei, forgot the young and ignorant self who called Zhao Yue Changjiao's brother, on the contrary, he remembered his current identity, that is, the general under the command of King Qin, the Luohou of the imperial court!

Staggering, Cao Ping stood up, grabbed Zhang Yan's reins with both hands, and desperately dragged Zhang Yan's mount, just not letting him take a step forward.

Zhang Yan thought that Cao Ping was dead, and when she saw this scene, she was shocked, but then it turned into a huge anger. In his hands, the two scimitars spun in the air and stabbed down into Cao Ping's back with all their might, and Cao Ping spat out another mouthful of blood in the air, but still refused to let go.

Seeing this scene, the soldiers of the New Qin Army who were still fighting on the side couldn't help but exclaim: "General Cao! ”

Everyone also rushed to this side and began to fight with Zhang Yan with their lives.

There were so many small roles for a while, Zhang Yan was really suppressed in a short period of time, he chopped the enemy soldiers who kept coming over like cutting grass, and there were a thousand wonders in his heart: What a group of fools who are not afraid of death, is it not good to live?

He didn't understand that Zhao Yue's success in a short period of time was not just talking.

If it is said that the success of the forces is embodied in the victory of a hundred battles, then the army is the basis for winning all battles, and if the quality of the army depends on its combat effectiveness, then strict laws and regulations and the training of generals are the key to improving combat effectiveness.

It is true that Wang Jian and Cao Ping's training methods did not prevail in this contest with Wang Kuang and Zhang Yan, but what does it matter? There is also the military law formulated by Chen Qun, which makes the subordinates of the army protect his superiors at all costs, so that the new Qin army can have another chance to fight back.

Just as Cao Ping sacrificed his life to let Zhao Yue escape, just as Cao Ping's soldiers protected their generals.

The meaning of the little soldier is like this, in addition to Chen Qun's decree, but also because Zhao Yue and Cao Ping both understand it, so the soldiers under them all understand, this is the reason why those people can give up their lives and step forward bravely. (To be continued.) )
