Chapter 55 The first duel cavalry won the attack on the Xuan Han Dynasty so the messenger was released
The third is here! Ask for a recommended collection! Today, the 10,000-word update mission has been completed!
When Huo Yi and the others were frightened, they saw that the gate of Xuanhan City was wide open, and thousands of black-armored cavalry rushed out, attacking Huo Yi and his party, Huo Yi drew his sword: "Huo Mad, Guan Xing, lead fifty people to protect the young master, Mr. Jian and his family to retreat." ”
"Whoa!" Huo Yan waited for the order to leave. He led fifty cavalry to escort two carriages and retreated.
Huo Yi looked at Xu Sheng beside him: "General Xu, you have been captured for a long time, are you rusty?" Can you still fight? ”
Xu Sheng looked at Huo Yi: "It's just a sharp weapon that is missing!" ”
Huo Yi turned his head and took a spear from the hand of a sergeant holding a gun, handed it to Xu Sheng, and said with a smile: "Let's see General Xu's ability!" ”
That Xu Sheng just waited for contempt for Huo Yi to find a weapon at random, and as soon as the gun was in his hands, the slightly dull feeling surprised him, but when he saw the blade of the spear glowing with a faint cold light, he exclaimed: "Such a divine soldier, you actually handed it over to an ordinary soldier?" ”
Huo Yi smiled: "They are all my brothers!" Worthy of this weapon! ”
Xu Shengna looked at these elites, but saw that the weapons in everyone's hands were not ordinary, and the cold light on the tips of the spears and blades was shining, which one was not a sharp weapon for killing. Frightened in his heart, Huo Yi has a deep heritage, he is his own lord, and he is only worthy of this weapon, why is everyone in Huo Yi's army holding it?
"Ready!" A red-armored knight in front of him shouted sharply.
"Squeak squeak" saw Huo Yi's guards lined up, each holding a bow and crossbow, aiming at the black-armored elite rider attacking in front.
Xu Sheng smiled, Jingnan's knight was so ignorant, but he wanted to shoot people on a horse? Why are these nomads so bold when they have lived on the steppe since childhood, so they can ride and shoot on their own horses with a certain degree of accuracy?
"Put!" These red-armored cavalry were very stable, and the rain of arrows shot down countless black-armored cavalry who attacked.
"Ben!" But without waiting for Xu Sheng to think about it, he saw those knights spread their horses' hooves, galloped, and kept a certain distance from the pursuing knights steadily, and turned around from time to time to shoot the pursuing knights.
Such a difficult action, even if he is so familiar with martial arts, a general who is so familiar with martial arts can't do it, why can these elite soldiers do it easily? Could it be that they are the Xiliang cavalry who recently joined Liu Bei? It doesn't look much like it, and those who look different from the Han people know that they are the Shanyue people they are familiar with.
Is this still the elite cavalry of the Cao Army that I am familiar with? How could the crossbow arrows in the hands of these half-looking cavalrymen be so vulnerable? It was only then that he began to notice the strange harness he was wearing, a wooden saddle higher than the normal saddle, and two iron things hanging on the side, but he didn't know what they were.
I looked at the cavalry around me, but I saw that everyone was stepping on it, and he was speechless for a while, so he quickly stuffed his feet in, and suddenly felt that the horse was much more stable, and then looked at the actions of these cavalrymen, Xu Sheng understood. The root of this sharpness is in this strange iron ring and this unusual saddle, what kind of character can make such a simple but so magical thing?
As a general, Xu Sheng knew the importance of these two things, and he could turn an ordinary Jiangnan cavalry into a nightmare for the elite cavalry in the north.
The commander of the cavalry of the Cao army began to panic, thinking that with the strength of his cavalry, it would not be easy to swallow up the southern cavalry of less than a thousand people in the blink of an eye? Unexpectedly, when he caught up with this cavalry, the cavalry under his command had already lost nearly half.
In a hurry, he waved his hand to order the troops to retreat, but unexpectedly, the southern cavalry was unforgiving, and actually chased after him, he waved his hand angrily, and hundreds of Cao army knights shouted, turned around, and charged at Huo Yi's horse team face to face.
Xu Sheng was nervous in his heart, this frontal defense, can he still use the convenience of the instrument to fight with him?
Huo Yi said coldly: "Put away the crossbow, draw the knife!" ”
But seeing the red-armored cavalry of less than 500 people, they collected their crossbows on their horses, and pulled out their sabers with a "bang", and the sound of the brush made people boil inexplicably. There is no unified horn, there is no unified shouting and killing, this sound is drawn. But it seemed to drown out the roar of the approaching black-armored cavalry on the opposite side, or the screams of life.
When the blood-colored cavalry rushed into the ink-colored cavalry, there was no difficulty as Xu Sheng imagined, Huo Yi was equipped with the most elite hundred-for-steel war knives, and all the long and short weapons were from Pu Yuan's means. Xu Sheng never felt that any of the guns he had used before could be as sharp as he was now.
When this spear pierces the opponent's leather armor, it is as easy as cutting through tofu.
The cavalry of the Cao army was desperate, thinking that the short-handed engagement would be a counterattack like a bamboo, but it was the cavalry of their own side that lost most of them in less than a round of engagement, only more than 100 people remained, and although the red armored cavalry on the opposite side was wounded, few were cut down.
He didn't understand the reason, he knew that his cavalry team was not considered elite in the northern army, but when did he have such a hard time facing the cavalry in the south?
But I don't know that Huo Yi's subordinates are not only sharp weapons, this horse gear is the most critical to change this pattern, a person riding on a horse, with stirrups and without stirrups are two states, with stirrups, you can even move and dodge on the horse, and the down-to-earth sense of borrowing when engaging allows him to slash with greater strength.
The horseman's eyes were red, and the eyes of the more than 100 horsemen were also cracked, and everyone roared angrily. Huo Yi said coldly: "The crossbow arrow is wound!" ”
To Xu Sheng's surprise, there was no more charge and slashing, Huo Yi was almost invincible at this moment, and let the soldiers take out the crossbow again.
The black-armored cavalry charged again, as if the end of the world was coming, as tragic and magnificent, Huo Yi only said lightly: "Release!" ”
The more than 100 black-armored knights fell to the ground like kites, very ironic.
Xu Sheng looked at Huo Yi puzzled, Huo Yi just said slowly: "I said, my subordinates are all my brothers, and I won't let them have unnecessary damage!" Courage, we have already proven, these hundreds of people regard death as if they were home, and my subordinates rush over, and if they can't save any of their brothers, why make more sacrifices? ”
Xu Sheng looked at Huo Yi fixedly, no one would regard ordinary soldiers in troubled times as so important, this young man did this, Xu Sheng couldn't help but be a little moved, it seems that such a character is what he should be loyal to, isn't it? For example, those heroes who regard human life as grass mustard, what kind of thing are they?
Huo Yi looked coldly at the sun gradually setting in the west: "I thought it was a peaceful road, but I didn't expect to encounter these things, Zhang He, count you unlucky!" Huo Yi suddenly remembered the war in his memory, it was the battle of Wakou Pass between Zhang Fei and Zhang He, this battle made Zhang Fei a famous general, what changes will happen in this life?
Huo Yi led the men and horses to change into black armor, rode horses, and arrived at the foot of Xuanhan City, the defenders of the city saw their own cavalry returning, and they didn't even ask much, in their eyes, it seemed that the cavalry in the south was as vulnerable as paper, wouldn't this attack be captured?
The drawbridge was slowly lowered, the city gate opened, and the captain of the gate guard in the city smiled: "Captain Chen, what are the results of this attack?" ”
It was an arrow in the head that answered him, and he didn't understand why he died so unjustly. As soon as Huo Yi's military horses entered the city, they quickly attacked and killed the guards, there were not many people in the city, only more than 1,500 people, and more than 1,000 cavalry went out of the city, and there were only 500 infantry left in the city, most of them were still asleep, and they were killed by the Jingzhou soldiers who entered the city.
Xuanhan City was taken over by Huo Yi. Huo Yan Guan Xing led more than 50 cavalry and escorted two carriages into Xuanhan City.
Huo Yi summoned a few generals under his command, although Xu Sheng was still nominally a prisoner, but since Huo Yi handed over the spear to him, his heart had already been handed over to Huo Yi, what reason could he organize himself to work for such a person? I'm afraid it's only too young, but this reason is too far-fetched.
Huo Yi spread out the map he was carrying, found the approximate location of the Wakou Pass in his memory, and sighed: "The Cao army has arrived here, leaving only this bit of men and horses to guard Xuanhan, it can be seen that the ditch in front has also been taken by it, if my guess is right, General Zhang Fei is leading the army to resist the Cao army at the Wakou Pass." ”
Xu Sheng looked at the map, and was shocked again, it seemed to be so beautifully drawn and detailed, he had never seen it in his life, but he could still keep calm, it seemed that since he met Huo Yi, anything could happen to him. After looking at the map fixedly, and after figuring it out, Xu Sheng said in a deep voice: "This ditch is not far from Wakou Pass, only forty or fifty miles, I am afraid that this is where the grain and grass of the Cao army are located, and our army only has 500 people, and it is almost impossible to take the ditch." ”
Huo Yi nodded: "However, our army does not need to take the ditch. Our army only needs to do one thing. ”
"What?" Jian Yong, Xu Sheng, Guan Xing, and Huo looked at Huo Yi in confusion.
"Since his grain and grass are in the ditch, when the two armies refuse to fight each other, they will inevitably have to transport grain from the ditch, and our task is to attack his grain road, and we can't let him transport grain so comfortably, if we can make him divide troops to guard the grain road, it would be better." Huo Yi slowly analyzed.
"Yes! The enemy's grain storage area was too far away from his garrison, and no matter how cautious he was, he could not count the enemy troops coming from his rear. Jian Yong exclaimed.
"Well, now that the plan has been decided, I ordered all the troops to rest and recuperate, and the wounded to heal their wounds. Ming said to find a hidden place in the mountains, and let the seriously injured soldiers and the young master of the family, Mr. Jian, go there to hide. The rest of the army went south with me to ambush the enemy's rear. Huo Yi ordered.
"Whoa!" The generals were ordered to go.
Huo Yi was tired for a while, he was walking and fighting, at this time he was tired and was about to sleep, but he heard Huo Crazy outside the door: "General, there is a horse outside the north gate, claiming to be a messenger, to send a letter to the camp of the ditch, the sergeants have not yet changed into Cao Jun's uniform, he didn't recognize that we are not Cao Jun, his subordinates estimate that it is Cao Jun's messenger, do you want to kill and intercept the letter?" ”
Huo Yi hurriedly got up: "Don't be in a hurry, let him in, take him to the lobby, I want to ask, and then I will take care of it!" Be polite to him, don't let him see the clues! ”
"Whoa!" Huo Yan replied.
Huo Yi put on his military uniform, picked up his sword, and came to the lobby.
The messenger arrived in the lobby and saw Huo Yi: "But Captain Chen Yuan?" ”
"Exactly! Who are you? Huo Yi pretended to look at the topographic map and replied without thinking.
"The villain is the prime minister's messenger from the big battalion, and he wants to deliver a letter to General Zhang at Wakou Pass." The messenger replied.
"It turned out to be an envoy! The war in Wakou Pass is tight, what is the matter with the envoy going there? Huo Yi asked.
"The prime minister heard that General Zhang had been fighting for a long time, and he wanted to urge General Zhang to end the war in Brazil as soon as possible, and Hanzhong was very nervous." The messenger replied.
"Oh!" Huo Yi pondered the battle of Wakou Pass in his memory, and seemed to vaguely remember that Cao Ying's urging was very important, and it decided the fate of Zhang He's defeat, so he didn't expose it, but said: "What can the envoy do here to help, although he said, the prime minister's military affairs are important!" ”
"The captain is polite, the villain's horse horsepower is tired, I'm afraid I won't be able to get to the Wakou Pass camp, and I want to change a war horse with full horsepower here to the captain!" The messenger said.
"It's okay, I have a lot of horses here! Huo Yan, go and lead a fine war horse and the envoy we captured last time, there must be no mistake! Huo Yi pretended to say.
Huo Yan went to lead a war horse of the Cao army cavalry that Bai Yuli had destroyed, and the messenger led the war horse, expressed a little gratitude, and roared out of the south gate, and went straight to the Navakou Pass.
Wakou Pass, the two armies have been refusing each other for more than half a month, Zhang Fei has already taken the initiative, Zhang He just hung up the battle exemption card, vowing not to fight.
This time, the messenger arrived at the camp of Zhang He's Wakou Pass, and Zhang He learned that the prime minister handed over the letter brought by the messenger, his face changed, and he sighed: "With the preparation of the army, I will attack the Wakou Pass at night tonight!" ”
