Chapter 16: Immortal Law?

Blade Array against Blade Array. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info On top of the sharp arrows on both sides, Zhao Yun, Chen Dao, Zhou Rui and Cao Chun on the opposite side looked at each other. For a while, no one spoke, and the heavens and the earth seemed to be quiet all of a sudden, and even the sound of the wind stopped, leaving only the body and mind of the people on the battlefield breathing and heartbeat. This was undoubtedly the calm before the storm, and no one was allowed to relax for a moment, except for the four generals of the two armies, who listened attentively, waiting for the final order to be given.

"Kill!" The first person to shout the order with this solemn momentum was Cao Chun on Cao Cao's side. Because his own strength was not comparable to Zhao Yun's side, he was inevitably forced to take the lead under the powerful momentum of Zhao Yun and them. It's helpless, but it's not a thing that doesn't have a chance to win. Just like Zhao Yun and they have a lot of confidence in their own strength, Cao Chun is not so confident in his own force, but he is extremely confident in the strength of the tiger and leopard ride in his hand. He believed that as long as his tiger and leopard riders seriously played to their strengths in close combat, no enemy would dare to stand in front of him.

"Up!" Seeing that the opposite side was launched, Zhao Yun also gave the order to attack without showing weakness. As a very capable general, it is naturally impossible for him to be afraid of the other party. Now that the other party has given the order to fight, the fearless Yingjun is undoubtedly the best choice. What's more, Zhao Yun has long understood in his heart that only the soldiers who survive this fight are the last qualified soldiers, and they are the elites that his lord Li Sheng needs. Zhao Yun has already regarded this battle as an assessment, survival of the fittest, survival of the fittest. Although it is very cruel, it corresponds to the situation of the world, which is already very cruel, and only those who adapt to cruelty can survive.

The two trumpets sounded the approach of the two armies. When the attack formations that were all broken through in the center collided together, the fierce fight began.

For Cao Chun's side, the battle with Zhao Yun was to eliminate the tiger beard who dared to touch him, to eliminate the sneak attackers, to avenge the comrades who were killed by the other party's despicable methods, and to protect the honor of the tiger and leopard rider itself. As for Zhao Yun's side, the war with Cao Chun was purely to go south, to return to his home, and to prove that he had the right to survive in the troubled times, and he also had a reason to win. As a result, neither side would back down. As a result, the initial neat formation gradually dispersed. The original confrontation became, a chaotic fight. All the combatants were red-eyed, and they caught a rider who was not their own and screamed to kill him.

The spear plunged into the chest of an enemy, struggling to break through the layers of obstacles and pierce the opponent's heart. Perhaps he was still a little puzzled, but the person who took the other party's life actually held the gun with his hand and stirred it vigorously in the opponent's chest, and then pulled out the blood-stained spear, urging the war horse under him to leave to find the next target. In this battlefield where cavalry is simply unrealistic, you can meet your target anytime and anywhere, and you will be attacked by the enemy anytime and anywhere. It's a mess that makes people have to reflect everything by their own instincts. The constant killing made the eyes of the knight who was originally cold-faced involuntarily shine with a scorching light. They all burst out with a thirst for blood in their hearts.

The war has reached this point, and it is purely a life-to-life fight. Every now and then, a soldier of a tiger and leopard rider stabbed the chest of one of Zhao Yunjun's cavalrymen, and then before he could withdraw his spear, another Zhao Yunjun knight cut off his head. Kill or be killed, angry or desperate, no one can stay out of the chaos of the battlefield, all with their weapons and work hard.

This is inevitable and helpless, but for ordinary soldiers, this is the only chance to survive.

Time rolls out as the sun rises. The chaotic battle situation has been over for half an hour since the one that was formed. For the tiger and leopard cavalry, everything is developing in a good direction, although the other side has three generals who cannot compete with their own side, but the tiger and leopard cavalry is using their own troops, their own combat experience, and the will to withstand the upper hand to forcefully offset the advantages caused by the three generals. They turned back from the initial pressure and beat the game, and gradually equalized the battle.

"The tiger and leopard ride is really strong." The situation of the battle has changed, and others may not feel it, but the three people who are the main generals don't know how to do it. They clearly felt the pressure from the enemy on the other side mounting.

"What should I do?" Chen Zhi asked Zhao Yun. In order to find Liu Chan who was lost in the battle, he must first defeat Cao Chun's troops who were guarding here. And now Cao Chunbu is so strong, but this makes Chen Zhi feel troublesome if he has to win-if he doesn't defeat the enemy in front of him, he can't scatter to find the location of Liu Bei's wife and children, and if he doesn't scatter to find them, then the chance of finding them is almost non-existent. Under the repeated erosion of both sides of the enemy and us, the people on the battlefield of Changsaka in Dangyang have been scattered and very open.

"Looks like we're going to have to regroup." Zhao Yun said judging it. He had already seen that his side was slightly showing his decline, and he knew that with the current level of his men and the elite tiger and leopard riders, it was impossible to continue the melee battle with no chance of victory. "Although they have worked hard, there are still some gaps compared to the enemy. It is obviously impossible to directly close the gap in such a battle without using any means, and I think I should use some special means. Zhao Yun thought in his heart, but his eyes gradually became sharper.

"Is it really necessary? If we are regrouped now, we will probably be dealt the most severe blow by the enemy in the moment of retreat. Chen Zhiquan said. He saw that there was something wrong with his army, but he didn't think that it was so bad that it needed to be resolved by a change in the formation on his side. He felt that there was no need for that for the time being, especially now that the enemy had just won the tie and had not really gained the upper hand, it was undoubtedly a matter of self-inflicted losses to regroup.

"At the moment, the enemy has just resisted our offensive and has not fully grasped the situation of the battle. Even if they could react and deal a blow to us the moment we ordered the regrouping, the blow would not be very strong. If we need to restructure our team, it is undoubtedly the best thing to do now. If it drags on and the enemy finally gains the upper hand, I'm afraid that we won't be able to integrate if we want to, and the enemy at that time won't let us do what we want to do with just some losses. Zhou Rui agreed with Zhao Yun's point of view with a look of approval. In his view, integration is necessary, and the loss of early integration will undoubtedly be much smaller than that of late integration.

"Do you all think we have to put the team together?" Chen Zhi was unwilling and wanted to confirm again.

"Yes. If we don't regroup, we will only lose if we continue. But once the team is reorganized, we will be able to defeat the enemy very quickly. Zhao Yun said very confidently. By this time, he had already made up his mind, and planned to use a new weapon that his lord Li Sheng had handed over to him one after another in the past few years to change the current situation in one go.

"Oh well. Just do as you say. Chen Zhi was reluctant, but the two of them could only agree like this. After all, in the current team, Zhao Yun's men and horses account for most of them.

"Woo......" The long snail horn was sounded by the guards beside Zhao Yun. The low and tactful voice resounded throughout the battlefield, making the knights of Zhao Yunjun, who had long been accustomed to hearing this order, couldn't help but be shocked. They woke up from the numbness of the battle, and instinctively responded to the order of the trumpet, and turned their horses and retreated to the rear. Looking at the handsome banner that had moved to the rear at some point, they all rushed there in unison.

This moment, as Chen Zhi feared, was chaotic. In the midst of the confusion, the difference between the superiority and the inferiority of the soldiers gradually became different: the even stupid soldiers always quickly retreated under this start, and sold their backs directly to the enemy. Some of them were lucky, and naturally fled before the enemy could react, while others were very miserable when they were caught up from behind by the enemy, and fell to the ground with a heavy shot.

Looking at these soldiers who died like this, Zhao Yun felt a little unbearable in his heart, but he never regretted his decision. He felt that they had not remembered what they had said, and that they had forcibly suppressed their spirituality in order to fulfill the orders given from above. As a soldier, it is inevitable to obey the orders from above, but how to obey is a matter of means. Losing his life because of stupid means is not what Zhao Yun wants to see. Facing their deaths, Zhao Yun just shook his head gently, his face full of regret.

His eyes swept over the battlefield in front of him, and he saw the clever actions of some intelligent soldiers, and he couldn't help but have a little satisfied smile on his face: those soldiers had a bit of the demeanor of a famous general when they retreated. They did not retreat quickly at the beginning of the order, but attacked their enemies even harder when the others retreated, so that the enemy, who originally thought that they were evenly matched, suddenly became scrambling, and could only parry but could not react more, so naturally they had to retreat and watch him retreat calmly.

"Good! Such a smart soldier is the soldier I need. He really appreciates what these people are doing. Seeing that they all withdrew smoothly one by one, his original nervousness was finally completely let go. After fighting in the melee until there were only 1,500 people left, after such a chaotic retreat, there were still about 1,200 people under their battle banner again—this result was very satisfactory to Zhao Yun and them. At the beginning of the order, Zhao Yun and the others were even prepared for the last remaining men and horses to be less than a thousand, with such a bottom line, looking at the current final result, it was obvious that such a loss was still acceptable.

When the enemy and the enemy returned to their positions, the people on the battlefield quickly separated, standing under their respective banners as at the beginning of the war, and the two factions stood together.

After Cao Chun reorganized his army's formation into a sharp arrow formation again, he stared at the opposite side with red eyes. Although he admired the other party's quick way to see the opportunity, he was still very angry that the other party actually used such "swiftness" to escape from under his minions. Because of the anger, his body trembled incessantly, because on the battlefield where he was no longer fighting, the wound on his right shoulder was faintly painful again. The uncomfortable feeling came from the wound, and the pain like a knife made Cao Chun hate the people in front of him who had caused him harm. Stimulated by the pain, he secretly swore to his heart: "I must catch all these people today." ”

It's not impossible. Although he also admitted that the other party was indeed strong, this strength was still quite inferior to the tiger and leopard riders under his command. As long as the next battle continues like that, then he can be absolutely sure that he has the opportunity to kill these people in one fell swoop.

"Hmm...... That's it. I'm ready, now it's up to you guys to do it? Cao Chun thought, and his gaze on the other side became much more stern.

At this moment, Zhao Yunjun also completed the reorganization. However, to Cao Chun's surprise, Zhao Yunjun, who had reorganized the team, did not change his formation, and faced himself with a sharp arrow formation as always, confronting his side-for-tat.

"Didn't he find the shortcomings of his army?" Cao Chun was puzzled when he saw this, he couldn't believe that Zhao Yun would be so bad: "No...... It shouldn't be like this, since the guy on the other side dares to put himself in such a formation again, then he must have some support. While it is not clear what they are holding onto, we should be more careful about it. ”

With such thoughts, Cao Chun became more and more cautious, he did not react to the rectification over there, just stopped the team and made a style to attack, but did not give the order to attack. Now that the sky is bright, the vision in his eyes is already very clear, he doesn't want to make a hasty decision, but wants to see first.

This is undoubtedly an old-fashioned idea. In the case that the other party has made strange moves again and again, and I don't know what kind of plan to play, such an old idea is undoubtedly correct to act without changing. If you encounter just an ordinary enemy, then you may be able to do nothing, but ...... Cao Chun met Zhao Yun and met Zhao Yun, who was already equipped with the secret weapon issued by Li Sheng. And that's when things go wrong.

"Assault of the whole army!" This time, it was Zhao Yun who gave the order to start the war first. I saw that the silver steel spear in his hand slashed hard into the void in front of him, but it drove the knights under his command to run frantically forward. With himself as the vanguard, the entire pro-guard team as the vanguard, and the rest of the people as the rearguard, the troops led by Zhao Yun rushed towards Cao Chun's place as quickly as a white feather off the string. As they rushed forward, they unexpectedly hung their guns behind their horses and lit their torches.

"What's going on?" Cao Chun was even more surprised when he saw it: "It's already bright now, how can it ...... Put away your weapons and take your torches, do they want to burn us with fire? It's incredible, isn't it? Cao Chun almost fainted, he couldn't understand Zhao Yun's actions at all.

After waiting like this for a while, seeing Zhao Yun and their group of people rushing closer, it was obviously impossible to take down the spear behind him, so Cao Chun gave an order to the soldiers behind him accordingly: "Warriors, press it on me, use the spears in our hands, and let them taste what is the strongest cavalry in the world." ”

"No!" In response to him was the shouts of all the soldiers of the Tiger and Par Riders. Holding the hard iron spear in one hand, they leaned heavily against their chests, and made a neat sound with a snap, like the war drums of the army's departure, and the monstrous momentum of their bodies waved with the sound of this sound. "Kill!" There were three shots, three sounds, and the soldiers' mouths let out this cry unusually neatly, but it urged the war horses under them to charge forward.

The whistling wind sounded in their ears, and the nostrils were filled with a strong smell of blood, so mellow that it was enough to make the timid tremble, but for these elite tiger and leopard riders who had already experienced thousands of battles on the battlefield, this was what stimulated their minds. They always feel that this is a wonderful breath.

The enemy was about 180 feet away from him. To get the two sides to collide with each other through this distance, it will take a bit of running. In contrast to the extremely hilarious torch-wielding of the opponent, the charging Haw Par Knights were very regular and light horses, holding the reins in one hand and a spear in the other. The sharp sharp and slightly downward, with a three-point oblique angle was held in the hands of the soldiers, the whole person was rigid like a sculpture, but it was very soft to adjust the ups and downs of himself and the mount under him anytime and anywhere, so that he sat firmly on the horse.

The distance was approached in an instant. When the two sides were ten feet apart, the people on Cao Chun's side could already clearly see the slightly mocking and excited smile on the other party's face.

"Huh? What's going on here? At this distance, the soldiers of the tiger and leopard rode saw the sudden action of the other party: Zhao Yun's personal guard suddenly slowed down and reached out and pulled out an oval jar from the hanging bag by the saddle. The jar was closed, and a thin piece of twine hung limply from the front end of the jar. Zhao Yun's guards held the jar in one hand, and when they lifted it to the torch in the other hand, a puff of green smoke rose up, and a snorting burning sound sounded on the hemp rope. "Throw!" In just a blink of an eye, I don't know who gave such an order, and I saw these people throw the jar in their hands in unison, and let it throw it towards him.

The other party was admittedly very fierce, but in Cao Chun's opinion, he was quite disdainful: "Why, do you want to smash us to death with just these clay pots?" Isn't that child's play? Cao Chun thought so, and didn't even give the order to dodge. He wanted to rush over like this, although there must be a few unlucky ones among his men who would be hit by the other party, but it was only a few, and for his entire army, these few were negligible.

With this in mind, the tiger and leopard riders continued to rush forward in a dense formation. They thought they could fight directly with the enemy through this weak barrage, but the sudden loud noise caused them to suffer the most inexplicable blow in their lives: a roar greater than the thunder hit their eardrums, making them dizzy for a moment; It was more powerful than a summer typhoon, mixed with countless shards of broken stone and pottery, and it struck them heavily, tearing at their bodies like sharp blades. The man fell, covered in blood-soaked wounds. The horses ran wildly, and they were frightened and felt that it was like a tiger's den. For a moment, the team of tigers and leopards rode on their backs. No matter how calm Cao Chun was, no matter how loudly he shouted to the whole army, no one listened to him anymore - the army was completely chaotic.

Although the root cause of the chaos of the tiger and leopard riders did not come from the panic in the hearts of the tiger and leopard knights themselves, but because of the war horses under them, Zhao Yunjun's continued throwing of that terrible thing expanded their confusion. Three loud noises in a row, and three pieces of smoke and dust that burst out in succession, turned the entire battlefield into dust and filled with gunsmoke. In the smoke of gunpowder, the team of tiger and leopard cavalry had not yet reacted to Zhao Yun's cavalry, they were outflanked from the left and right, one side was commanded by Zhou Rui, and on the other side was Chen Zhi, an old man familiar to Cao Chun.

The bravery of the two generals made the combat strength of the two armies amazingly reflected. They are like two sharp knives quickly interspersed with the prey called the tiger and leopard ride. "The enemy army is like no man's land!" A short sentence has become the current situation of tiger and leopard riding. This should not have happened to the Tiger and Par Riders. But the continuous blows of the enemy, combined with the confusion of the own army, made the impossible possible.

At that moment, the tiger and leopard rider was killed and retreated for more than three miles.

Collecting the troops and returning to the cage, Chen Zhi's face was full of uncontrollable smiles, being able to kill the tiger and leopard cavalry, known as the world's first cavalry, into such a miserable appearance, although it was not his own mastermind, but it was also a contribution, and it was also a pleasant thing. If it weren't for the fact that he was still thinking about finding the little master and the master mother who were trapped in the battle, Chen Zhi would even have the urge to chase down and kill the tiger and leopard riders completely. After all, he also knew that he would not have a chance to chase the tiger and leopard like he did now in the future.

"By the way, what kind of weapon are you using against those guys today? It's like thunder and lightning, not only is the sound extremely loud, but even the power is terrifying. It's really sharp. Returning with an excited face, Chen Zhi couldn't help but ask about this. As a general, there is no one who is not interested in powerful weapons, and in their opinion, it is definitely where they strengthen themselves.

"That's a weapon invented by my lord, called 'Palm Thunder'." Zhao Yun explained with a smile. After winning the battle, he was in a good mood, and there was a faint smile on his calm face.

"Palm Thunder? Is Mo really the Immortal Family's Lei Fa? How can such power be achieved otherwise? I thought that Li Taishou was more decadent in learning the Tao, but now it seems that he really seeks the immortal way. Chen Zhi said suddenly, his gaze at Zhao Yun was a little strange, but also a little awe. In his opinion, Li Sheng learned immortals, so Zhao Yun is an immortal's subordinate, which is somewhat different from ordinary people. "No wonder he's gotten so powerful. Thinking about it this way, it's normal. Chen Zhi thought and nodded slightly. He neither completely denied nor believed in the things of demons and gods.

"Immortal Thunder Law? I don't know that. Anyway, this thing was indeed made up by the lord and the Taoist priests. It is said that because of the trouble of development, only a small part of it has been given to us in the past few years, and the 600 rounds that have just been thrown out are the total amount that the Lord has allocated to me in the past six years. This thing is too expensive, and it can be said that it is a lot of money. Just gave it to Cao Chun with such an ancient brain, I always felt that it was a loss. Zhao Yun said with a wry smile. Of course, this is not "absolutely true", but under the "confidential" clause promulgated by Li Sheng, Zhao Yun can only tell his allies in this way.

"I see." After listening to Zhao Yun's explanation, Chen Zhi was stunned, but his heart seemed to be dredged by something, and he was full of smooth feelings. He breathed a sigh of relief, but it was for the sake of what Zhao Yun said that such a weapon was not easy to produce. After all, such a force is too powerful, even a strong person like Chen Zhi does not want to run into it like this. However, as an ally at the moment, he looked at Zhao Yun's regretful look, and always wanted to open his mouth to comfort him. However, I thought about it a lot, but I couldn't say it. He opened his mouth dryly, but closed it very embarrassedly, and finally there was really no way, so he said dryly: "...... Hey, Zilong, don't be too heartbroken about this, no matter how expensive that weapon is, it can't cost our lives. ”

"That's true." Such dry words, but they were reasonable, thinking that he had indeed won, Zhao Yun's face was slightly better.

Returning to Nagasaka, Zhao Yun, Zhou Rui, and Chen Zhi decided to divide the troops into three teams to find the east, south, and north respectively. The reason why he gave up the West was because it was the direction of Liu Bei's escape, if Xiao Liu Chan and the two ladies who were scattered in the chaos did go west, it would also save their own effort, which would be a good thing. Unfortunately, the possibility of such a situation is extremely small.

The three of them dispersed. Zhao Yun is in charge of the northern part. Since this was the initial direction of Cao Cao's attack, it was also here that the whole rout was originally produced, and because Liu Bei had already transferred his wife and children to the rear army a few days ago, Liu Bei's wife and children also lost contact with their own army here. As far as it is impossible for the women's family to go too far with their children, the possibility of finding Liu Bei's wife and children in the north is also the greatest. Originally, Chen Zhi also wanted to be directly in charge of this side, but he was persuaded by Zhao Yun to repay Liu Bei's kindness. For the sake of Zhao Yun and the others helping him in the front, he didn't continue to persevere, but finally chose the south as the target of his search. This also has his own reasons - it is closer to Liu Beijun's main formation, and Chen Zhi, as Liu Beijun's general, naturally hopes to take advantage of this search opportunity to report the situation on his side to his lord. Especially about the fact that there are friendly troops that suddenly appear all the way on his side.

No one will have an exact number to say how far a direction will be searching. However, Zhao Yun was sure that this range was by no means above five miles. This is the conclusion he came to based on the physical strength of the people and the fact that Liu Bei's wife and children are all weak women and children. Although some people say that there is infinite potential in the midst of danger, it is already a very amazing thing that a person who has been running for a day, and a woman with a child, can run five miles in the midst of chaos. In fact, Zhao Yun didn't believe that they really had the ability to run five miles. On the way back to Nagasaka, he observed the distribution of refugees, and he found that the largest number of refugees existed in the gap within a radius of about three miles. Once this distance is exceeded, the number of people decreases considerably, and when it is four miles away, there are almost no people.

Therefore, it was more than enough for Zhao Yun to spread the scope of his search to a radius of five miles. In fact, he put the team at such a distance, and even slightly alerted Cao Cao's army to the south again. Although there is a saying that Cao Cao is still in Xiangyang and it is impossible to get here all at once, nothing is impossible to happen on the battlefield. It was arranged so carefully by Zhao Yun.
