"Report~" The herald ran from afar at great speed with his voice pulled. "Report to the general, the Han army's iron cavalry has been repaired, and I am afraid that it will not be long before I forcibly attack the mountain."

"What? Guo Da shot Zhu Jun's arrow, and he came to attack so soon? When they heard this, they were all alert. Zhou Cang felt incredible.

"Zhu Jun deserves to be a famous general of the Han Dynasty. I thought that if he was hit by an arrow, he would at least leave some time to buffer, but I didn't expect it to come so quickly. Presumably, it was to take us down quickly, and then turn back to rescue Huangfu Song. Zhang Bao said thoughtfully.

"General, what do we do now?"

Zhang Bao put on the armor on his body with the help of his own soldiers, and ordered: "Zhou Cang, Guo Da, let's act according to the plan." The two of you each led their troops and horses to hide in the forest, waiting for an opportunity to sneak attack, remember to give full play to the advantages of our army, and delay is the main thing. ”

"No."

Zhou Cang and Guo Da each led the men and horses to prepare, and at this time Zhang Bao's armor was also put on. took the weapon, pointed to a protrusion not far away and said to the soldiers: "Let's go, let's go over there and see what the situation of the soldiers and horses under the mountain is." ”

Why is cavalry the most feared class of troops in the era of cold weapons? Because of the strong mobility of the cavalry, and the inertia of an invincible charge. Once the cavalry loses its mobility, it is basically the same as a normal class.

In the dense woods, a group of cavalry of about ten people, wearing the forest path, must be the scouts of the Han army. In the woods, there are not only tall trees, but also low branches and leaves. In order to avoid these annoying branches, the cavalry had to abandon their horses and advance on foot.

"Snap" a few strands that were pushed away by the soldiers in front of them, and bounced back onto the helmets of those who followed closely behind. "Damn, what's wrong with you?" As he spoke, he touched his head with his hand through his helmet.

The branch hit the head, and although it was protected by a helmet, there was still a momentary feeling of dizziness.

The soldier in front turned his head with anger on his face: "What's wrong with Lao Tzu?" Whoever let you be behind me, deserve it. ”

"You ......"

"That's enough." A slightly majestic voice came, and a soldier who was obviously a small leader came over: "It's all brothers, what's there to quarrel about?" Maybe the enemy army is peeping at us all around, and you still have the heart to quarrel in your dreams? ”

"Liu Tou. Don't frighten the brethren. A somewhat timid soldier turned his head to look around, grumbling.

That brother Liu Tou sneered on his face: "I scared you? When our cavalry entered the mountain, we thought that the tiger had pulled out its teeth, so the yellow turban thief picked up our toothless tiger and could still bypass us? ”

"Tuk

A wolf's tooth arrow came from the dense part of the forest, like lightning, and before he could react, he was nailed to a thick tree trunk with an arrow. Nashi's eyes stared straight ahead with a blank eye.

"Enemy Attack~"

Everyone was immediately frightened like rabbits, and turned around and ran, not even the horses.

"Xiu Xiu~"

Several wolf-tooth arrows flew out of the forest, and although they were slightly inaccurate, they could not hold up the large number. Each of the Han soldiers was shot with at least two or three arrows and fell to the ground. Grace died on the spot, wailing like a pig.

Several people came out of the woods. Everyone is armed with a hard bow, but how poor the craftsmanship is. No wonder the accuracy is so bad.

Most of these bows and arrows are simply made from local materials in the forest.

The person at the head is Zhang Bao, the general of the Yellow Turban Digong. The soldier who was wailing on the ground watched Zhang Bao walk in front of him with fear on his face.

Zhang Bao looked at him coldly without saying a word, and suddenly his hand fell with a knife, and the wailing disappeared in an instant.

"How many waves of scouts have you killed?" Zhang Bao asked while wiping the blood stains on his hand to avoid excessive blood and prevent his hand from slipping when holding the handle of the knife.

"General Hui, this is already the fifth wave. Coupled with the previous waves, we have killed at least 30 scouts. The soldier took the rag with which Zhang Bao wiped the blood and said.

"Well, presumably Guo Da and Zhou Cang should have killed dozens of people. It is estimated that Zhu Jun will not wait long at the bottom of the mountain to know that we have killed all the scouts. Once the army attacks the mountain, you must be careful to save your life. ”

"No."

Zhu Jun and Cao Cao led the cavalry to wait for the scouts to investigate the information in the mountains, but when they saw that the sun was about to set, they did not see a single scout coming out of the mountains.

"Mengde, how many scouts have you sent? Why is there no one to reciprocate now? Zhu Jun was a little restless.

Cao Cao said with a bitter face: "General, the last general sent dozens of scouts. This mountain is not big, and there is no information so far, I am afraid that the scouts of our army have been wiped out. ”

"What? Damn it. Zhu Jun's face was a little gloomy. Dozens of scouts died on this obscure dirt mountain.

"General, I have a relationship with that Zhang Bao, why don't you let me go into the mountain and persuade him? Those who are here can also take advantage of this to find out. ”

Zhu Jun was a little worried: "I'm afraid that Zhang Bao will take advantage of this to harm your life." ”

"Don't worry, general, although Zhang Bao is a thief, he is a person who values love and righteousness. Even if you can't persuade him to surrender, you can go down the mountain safely. ”

"Well, okay then. Go ahead. Then I will lead my troops to meet you at the bottom of the mountain, and if you are in danger, I will order my soldiers and horses to attack the mountain by force. ”

"General Xie."

Cao Cao whipped his horse to the foot of the mountain, and a stout and powerful arrow was lost and shot into the open space in front of the war horse with a sound of tearing through the air. He knew that this was the Yellow Turban Army warning him, and if he stepped forward, he was afraid that ten thousand arrows would be fired.

Cao Cao didn't step forward, but just stood on his horse and shouted loudly: "Brother Zhang Bao, dare to show up and see the old man?" ”

The intelligence soldier in the mountain had already passed the news to Zhang Bao, who was resting.

"Cao Mengde wants to see me?" Zhang Bao looked surprised, and then smiled: "Interesting, I have a relationship with Cao Mengde in Luoyang, so he is called an old man." Let it go into the mountains. ”

"General, no, the advantage of our army is to borrow the cover of trees, and the traps hidden in the shadows. If we let them into the mountains, I am afraid that they will remember the deployment of our army one by one. Guo Da said worriedly.

"Well, that makes sense. Then you don't need Meng De to enter the mountain, I can go there in person. ”

Zhang Bao came down from the mountain and saw Cao Cao alone on the horse from a distance. sighed secretly: Cao Mengde is really a heroic figure, and he dares to come to see him alone.

"Meng De, if you come alone, aren't you afraid that Zhang will take the opportunity to embarrass you?" Zhang Bao saluted and said coldly to Cao Cao.

Cao Cao also returned the salute, raised his head and said with a smile: "Although my brother is a yellow scarf, he fights against the imperial court. However, Cao came today because of his brother's personal relationship. Could it be that my brother wants to my life? ”

The two looked at each other for a moment, and then suddenly laughed at the same time, and the loud laughter startled the birds in the woods.

"Hahaha......"

"Hahaha......"

The two sat directly on the floor, facing each other. Zhang Bao said: "Meng De, you and I are facing each other. Meng De came alone, did he want to say that he would surrender to Zhang? ”

Cao Cao untied the water bladder on his waist, closed it fiercely, wiped his lips and raised his head and said, "Brother is willing to surrender?" Take a bite? ”

"No." Zhang Bao shook his head and took Cao Cao's water bladder, poured a sip, and suddenly his eyes lit up: "Brother Mengde, it's good wine." I brought wine with me. In the past two days in the mountains, I really miss the wine. ”

Zhang Bao raised his neck and poured two more sips. Seeing this, Cao Cao snatched the water bladder into his hand, held it tightly on his chest, and said with a little dissatisfaction: "Brother is so drunk, I'm afraid I will drink it all in a few sips." ”

"Stingy." Zhang Bao glanced at Cao Cao even more dissatisfied.
