"If you can't do anything, you can order the generals to lead their headquarters, retreat in turn, cover each other, and withdraw to the long company."

Seeing that Cao Hong's infantry could not block the front of the 800 Liukou soldiers, Cao Ying gave up the idea of luck, and the opportunity to annihilate the thief soldiers had been completely lost. Cao Ying immediately made a decision and ordered to retreat in turn, but as for Liu Bei's subordinates, who were still in chaos, Cao Ying couldn't take care of it.

"Withdraw~Withdraw~~"

Xiahou Yuan's terrible howl resounded through the sky, leading the two thousand elite soldiers of the headquarters to protect Cao Ying, Cheng Yu, Chen Gong and others retreated in panic, Le Jin and Li Dian led more than 1,000 elite soldiers to the rear of the palace, and Xiahou Yuan's more than 1,000 elite soldiers had just rushed out of the chaotic army, and the tide swept through the departments of Le Jin and Li Dian, and formed a formation thousands of steps away.

After Xiahou Yuan's troops completed the formation, Le Jin and Li Dian led the army to retreat slowly, although it was fast but not chaotic.

Seeing Cao Jun in danger and calmly retreating, Ma Yue was cold in his heart, Cao Ying really deserved to be a peerless hero! The generals under his command are not easy to match, even if they are attacked suddenly, they can be so calm. However, the wolf bit and penetrated the bones for three points, since he was entangled by eight hundred rogues, did he still want to get out easily?

A cold smile hung on the corner of Ma Yue's mouth.

"Pei Yuanshao, Zhou Cang!"

Pei Yuanshao and Zhou Cang rushed forward, and responded sharply: "The end will be!" ”

"Each rate of two hundred light cavalry, wheel overturning interception, must not let the Han army easily escape!"

"Yes!"

"Eight hundred rogues, rogue world~~"

Pei Yuanshao and Zhou Cang roared in unison.

"There is no advance or retreat, I am invincible~"

Each had two hundred light cavalry frantically responded, and in an instant, the two light cavalry were like two sharp scimitars, separated from the eight hundred liukou, bypassing the elite soldiers of Xiahou Yuan and Lejin, and went straight to Cao Ying's army. Xiahou Dun was leading the army to run, when he suddenly heard the roar of the horse's hooves, and looked back in shock, only to see that hundreds of Liukou cavalry had already bypassed Xiahou Yuan and Lejin and roared.

"Array, array!"

"The spearmen step forward, the light infantry is in the center, and the circular defensive array ~ protect the lord!"

Xiahoudun gave an order, and the well-trained soldiers of the Cao army quickly formed a circular defensive formation, and nearly a thousand spearmen lined up outside, raising their spears to form a dense spear array, and the spear blades were dense, like sharp needles on the hedgehog's body, even if it was a tiger and wolf beast, it was difficult to swallow.

"Whew~~"

Liukou light cavalry roared, but at a distance of a hundred steps from the Cao army, it suddenly turned sharply to the left, cut diagonally, and in the deafening sound of horses' hooves, several sharp three-edged throwing spears roared in, with a cold cold flame fiercely pierced into the Cao army's formation, and in a few terrible howls, several Cao soldiers fell to the ground with a wail.

The Liukou light cavalry has been galloping a thousand paces, and the horse has turned around, but it does not continue to attack, but only watches from a distance, like two vicious wolves watching on the side, neither in a hurry to attack, but still ghostly, only when you show fatigue, rush up and bite hard, and when you re-position, it retreats into the distance, and continues to watch.

"Damn bastards, cowards!"

Xiahoudun was so angry that he gritted his teeth, but he was helpless.

Cao Ying frowned for a moment, a cloud shrouded his heart, Chen Gong beside him took a breath of cold air, and said in a condensed voice: "Ma Yue, this thief, is well versed in the essence of cavalry disturbing guerrillas, it seems that it is not easy to retreat with his whole body today." ”

Cao Ying's eyes flashed with a sharp light, if he continued to be entangled like this, when Ma Yue's main force of Liukou destroyed Liu Bei's army on the bank of the Yingshui River and then turned back to chase, it would be really difficult to get out, so he said fiercely: "Immediately order the whole army, don't worry about chasing behind you, and retreat at full speed." ”

Chen Gong said awe-inspiringly: "The lord is wise, although the enemy cavalry is difficult, after all, there are only three or four hundred cavalry, how many soldiers can you kill me?" ”

Cheng Yu sighed: "For today's plan, it can only be like this." ”

……

On the banks of the Yingshui River, the scuffle is blazing.

Although Cao Ying's 5,000 elite Han troops had withdrawn, Liu Bei's Han troops on the left and right still firmly held the upper hand, chasing the remaining nearly 10,000 thieves and killing corpses all over the field. Seeing that Cao Ying led the army to retreat, Liu Bei knew that something was wrong and had the heart to withdraw his troops, but Guan Yuyuan was difficult to communicate with the other side of the battlefield, but Zhang Fei didn't know where to kill, how to find it in a hurry?

Liu Beishi couldn't bear to abandon the two righteous brothers and fled alone, so he had to personally lead an elite army to rush into the chaotic army to find Zhang Fei.

Ma Yue's expression was indifferent, he stood on a high ground across the horse, looking down, only to see that the entire battlefield was like a pot of boiling water, boiling into the sky, and there was an elite soldier on the left, center, and right, like three sharp boning knives, stirring up a churning in the Yellow Turban Thief Formation.

"Xu Chu."

Xu Chu's expression was wooden, and he rode forward and said loudly: "The end will be." ”

"Lead two hundred light cavalry and intercept the Han army on the left."

"Yes."

"Dian Wei."

"The end will be."

"Lead two hundred light cavalry to meet the Han army in the middle road."

"Yes."

"Guan Hai."

"The end will be."

"Lead two hundred light cavalry and intercept the Han army on the right."

"Yes."

Xu Chu roared and roared, each lit two hundred light horses, and swept away.

Ma Yue turned around suddenly, looked at the last dozens of heavy-armored iron horses, his eyes showed a fierce look like a vicious wolf, and said, "Come with me!" ”

"Ha~"

Ma Yue shouted, the war horse let go of its four hooves and galloped forward, and dozens of heavy-armored iron horsemen also surged forward. The horse's hooves were sick, splashing the sky with debris, and in an instant, the horse leaped and led dozens of horsemen into the chaotic thief formation like a wedge.

An eager shout suddenly sounded from the front, attracting Ma Yue's attention.

"I am the Heavenly General Zhang Liang, where is the Great General Ma Yue? Take me to see Ma Yue! ”

Zhang Liang escaped death, looking embarrassed, and hurriedly rushed to the front of a heavily armored iron horseman, eagerly looking at the cavalry's cold grimace mask, and an inexplicable cold aura came out of the mask's eye hole, which was actually murderous. Zhang Liang shuddered, and Huo Ran took a step back.

"You~~ Who are you?"

"Aren't you going to see me?"

A mournful voice rang out from behind the grimace mask.

Zhang Liang gasped and said awe-inspiringly: "You~~ Are you Ma Yue?" ”

"Driving~"

Ma Yue's legs grabbed the horse's belly hard, the war horse screamed in pain and screamed and threw off its four hooves and rushed towards Zhang Liang, Zhang Liang's expression was blank, staring straight at the hideous grimace in front of his eyes getting closer and bigger, the vigorous horse hooves were like knocking on his heart, like the death knell of death, and the cherry red tassel on the top of the horse armor was as beautiful as blood!

"挲~"

"Poof~"

The cold steel knife slashed through the air, showing off a light cold, a shallow red mark rose from Zhang Liang's neck, and in an instant, the blood gushed like a fountain, Zhang Liang's body stiffened, staring at the front, his eyes revealed unwillingness, anger, disappointment, resentment and melancholy~ In the end, it was dimmed like a extinguished candle, and the breath of life receded from Zhang Liang's body like a tide, and the heavy darkness was gradually enveloping him...... "uh~~"

Zhang Liang let out a gossamer moan at the end, his head drooped limply, and his straight body fell like sawn wood.

"Phew~"

Ma Yue drank the war horse, and suddenly looked back, Zhang Liang was already dead on the spot.

……

"Death to those who stand in my way~~"

Zhang Fei rode forward, like a mad tiger, the eight snake spears danced up and down, and the blockers were clothed, and behind Zhang Fei, the eighteen horsemen swore to follow, forming a sharp triangular charging formation, just like a sharp boning steel knife, cutting off the flesh and blood of the Yellow Turban thieves piece by piece.

"Dead open~"

Zhang Fei roared, and another spear swung out to pick open the chest cavity of a thief general, the hot blood splashed on his face, which aroused his fierce surname more and more, and he roared three times in the sky, and the red blood flowed down his lips into his mouth, and dripped down his cold teeth, hideous as a ghost.

"Whew~"

The piercing sound of breaking the air suddenly sounded, and the icy killing machine rushed from the left, Zhang Fei didn't look back, and the spear in his hand was handed out like lightning.

"Bell~"

The agitated sound of gold and iron resounded in the sky, and the strong anti-shock force rolled back like a tide, shaking Zhang Fei's arms numb, Zhang Fei's pupils suddenly contracted, and his eyes revealed an inexplicable solemnity. There is such a character among the Yellow Turban Thieves!?

Zhang Fei Huo Ran turned around, only to see a grinning tooth, described as a ghost, hideous, but majestic as a cow, wearing a sackcloth, revealing a thick and dense black hair on his exposed belly, living off a beast! Zhang Fei claimed that he looked vicious, but he didn't expect that there were people in the world who were ten times more vicious than him.

"Who's coming?"

Zhang Fei raised the snake spear and shouted.

"Lao Tzu Dianwei." The wicked man shouted, urging the horse to fly, "Eat Lao Tzu's halberd again~~ Kill!" ”

Zhang Fei's facial muscles twitched, a pair of jet-black eyes suddenly turned red, and his frenzied expression gushed up like a tide, feeling the fanatical battle intent revealed by the main general, and the eyes of the eighteen horsemen behind him also became hot, and in the frantic shouting, he fearlessly faced the two hundred light horsemen behind Dian Wei.

……

"Ahh

Guan Yu killed the surname, looked up to the sky and roared, when he was urging the horse to gallop forward, he suddenly saw a thief who would intercept the way, only to see that the thief would be majestic and have the power of a tiger, but his eyes were wooden and his expression was cold, and he didn't say anything when he intercepted Guan Yu, but just stood coldly across the horse, just waiting for Guan Yu to come forward and fight.

"Kill!"

Guan Yu shouted angrily, urging the horse to gallop forward, the phoenix's eyes were full of murderous intent, and the Leng Yan saw weighing eighty-three catties chopped down the air, and slashed the thief's head like Mount Tai pressed the top. The thief will not be afraid, and the long knife in his hand will be horizontal, and he will hold it high above the top, intending to slash Guan Yu's Mount Tai like a top.

Look for death!

Guan Yu's heart was cold.

"Bang~"

Guan Yu's angry sword slashed viciously at the hilt of the long knife that the thief had raised over the top, making a suffocating sound of gold and iron.

"Rhythm ~~"

The thief put the horse under his crotch and suddenly neighed sadly, bent his legs and retreated again and again, and only stopped after retreating dozens of steps, Guan Yu's knife full of anger was unbelievably blocked!

"Huh?"

Guan Yu's eyes were awe-inspiring, and his eyes when he looked at the thief general suddenly became solemn.

"Eat a certain knife too!"

Suddenly, the thief slapped his horse back, and the heavy long knife in his hand split through the sky, slashing down viciously at Guan Yu's head, and the terrible roar shattered Guan Yu's eardrums.

Guan Yu's expression was indifferent, and he lifted the Leng Yan saw horizontally over the top, and said, "What if I take your ten knives?" ”

stunned to meet the horizontal, the thief and Guan Yu will be competitive, you come and I will kill together.

……

"Third brother! Where is Yide? ”

Liu Bei danced a double-strand sword, rode a horse in the chaos of the army left and right, was looking for Zhang Fei, the cold killing machine suddenly from the front of the tide, Liu Bei shivered, Huo Ran looked up, only to see ten steps in front of him, I don't know when a tower-like man has been erected.

The big man's face is like the bottom of a pot, his eyes are like copper bells, and the muscles on his bare arms are full of muscles, which are hideous and terrifying, and what makes Liu Bei even more frightened is that the big man's arms are still wrapped around a circle of dark iron chains, and the end of the iron chain is connected to a huge meteor hammer, and the wolf tooth nails on the hammer are flashing with a dark light, and there is red blood dripping down the sharp wolf tooth nails, like the fangs of a vicious wolf dripping blood.

Guan Hai was holding a meteor hammer, blocking Liu Bei's way like a mountain, and he was excited in his heart, damn, this little white face is gentle and delicate, he looks like a big official, and he caught it alive this time.

……

On the wilderness to the north of Yingshui, Cao Ying, Cheng Yu, and Chen Gong fled to the north in panic under the escort of Xiahoudun, Xiahouyuan, Le Jin, and Li Dian. Pei Yuanshao and Zhou Cang's two light horsemen were like maggots attached to the bones, chasing after each other, and there were constantly backward Han soldiers who fell in a pool of blood and became the souls of the rogue knives.

Pei Yuanshao and Zhou Cang's two light horses were like two ferocious and cunning wolves, not in a hurry to bite the prey to death, but with the advantage of the speed of coming and going like the wind, they took a bite in the east and gnawed a piece in the west, constantly increasing the wounds on the prey, so that the Han army continued to bleed, bleed, and bleed...... If the Han army did not stop to meet the attack, the bloodshed would continue until the last drop of blood was shed.

Cao Ying's expression was cold like water, and his heart was dripping blood, it was not that he didn't want to stop, but he couldn't stop.

It's not that Cao Ying doesn't know what kind of damage this hasty escape will bring to the Han army, but there is no other way! If the neat military formation slowly retreats, although it can effectively curb the disturbance of the Liukou light cavalry, the marching speed will inevitably be as slow as a snail, once Ma Yue's main force of the Liukou catches up after annihilating Liu Bei's troops, the consequences will be unimaginable.

Fortunately, not far in front is the Changshe, as long as you enter the Changshe City, you will no longer be afraid of the eight hundred Liukou who leap on the horse, although the Liukou light cavalry is difficult, but it is in the wilderness, if there is a strong city to defend, why should the cavalry be afraid?

When Cao Ying was thinking about it, he suddenly saw the dust and smoke billowing from the north and rising with the wind, as if a large army was rushing towards this side.

Miserable! Cao Ying complained bitterly in his heart, beside the army of his department, there were only 500 elite soldiers of Cao Ren of the Changshe Society, Cao Ren needed to guard the city, guard the grain and grass, and it was impossible to divide the troops to come to the rescue, so that this army that suddenly came out could only be thieves. This is really an interception in front and a chasing soldier in the back, could it be that the army is really going to be defeated here?

A trace of fierceness flashed in Cao Ying's small eyes, and he said coldly to Xiahou Tang beside him: "Order, the army stops retreating, forms in place, and prepares to meet the enemy!" ”

Xiahou roared and took the order, and in an instant, a terrible and loud roar resounded in the sky.

"Formation, formation~~ Prepare to meet the enemy~~"

Cao Jun can be in a good position, the army in front can also be killed, to Cao Ying's surprise, but it is a remnant of three or five hundred people, the first big flag is tattered but vaguely arguable, embroidered with a big "Cao" word. When he approached, Cao Ying began to see that the leader was Cao Ren.

At this time, Cao Ren has long since lost his former majestic appearance, only to see unkempt, ragged, and bloody, very embarrassed.

"Zixiao?" Cao Ying exclaimed, "If you don't stick to the Changshe, why are you here?" ”

Cao Ren ran to Cao Ying's approach, knelt down in the dust, and said with a face full of shame: "Lord, Cao Ren is incompetent, and the Changshe is lost~"

"What!?" Cao Ying was taken aback, only to feel that his eyes were black for a while, and he lost his voice, "The Changshe is lost, and the grain and grass are safe?" ”

Cao Ren's face was flushed, his head hung lower, and he said in a low voice, "All trapped in the city." ”

Chen Gong and Cheng Yu also changed color when they heard this, and they were secretly frightened, the city can be recaptured if it is lost, but if the grain and grass are lost, it will be difficult to take it back, and the thieves are likely to burn it when they can't take it away. If there is no grain and grass, it will become impossible for Cao Ying's army to hold the city, and the only option is to return to Chenliu, however, will the eight hundred Liukou give Cao Ying's army a chance to return to Chenliu?

When Cao Ying heard this, he was furious and said angrily: "Come on, pull this guy down with me and behead it to show the public!" ”

Cao Ren knelt in the dust, his expression was blank, neither distinguishing nor begging for mercy, Chen Gong hurriedly stepped forward and pulled Cao Ying's sleeve and persuaded: "My lord, please calm your anger." ”

Cheng Yu hurriedly said: "General Cao Ren, how did you lose the Changshe?" ”

Cao Ying's expression softened slightly, and asked Cao Ren: "Come quickly, if there is half a false word, I will not forgive." ”

Cao Ren said: "When the army left the city, Ren didn't dare to slack off, so he immediately assigned soldiers to guard the four gates, and sent troops to patrol along the streets to quell the people's turmoil, and the situation was settled. Who expected that at dawn, the city suddenly burst into murder, countless thieves broke out of the ground, our army was small, and the battle was invincible, so we could only be defeated. ”

Cao Ying said angrily: "Don't talk nonsense! The thief is not a gopher, how can he break through the ground? ”

Cao Ren responded: "This is the case. ”

Cao Ying didn't believe it, and was about to reprimand, Chen Gong suddenly said: "Lord, what General Cao Ren said is probably not false!" ”

"Why did the public station say this?"

Chen Gong said: "Eight hundred Liukou can hide from General Cao Hong's exploration of horses without being discovered, Zhongde and Gong are puzzled, listening to General Cao Ren's words today, it can be said that the mouth is suddenly opened, and the cunning of the horse leaping thief is abnormal, it is clear that the Tibetan pit was dug in advance, and the eight hundred Liukou were hidden underground, so they concealed our army's exploration of horses. ”

Cheng Yu said: "We made a mistake, we didn't expect that Ma Yue would hide the men and horses in the pit, so that the success fell short and the whole army fell into a passive situation, hey~"

Cao Ying said awe-inspiringly: "Is this the fate? ”

Cao Ying's voice fell, and suddenly heard the sound of killing in the north, a thief soldier came over violently, the number of people was 2,000 people, and the first thief will raise his knife to the sky, and roared angrily: "Hugh is going to leave Cao Ying, Liao Hua has been waiting here for a long time~~"

"Capture Cao Ying alive ~ Capture Cao Ying alive ~~"

After Liao Hua, two thousand thieves and wolves howled in response, and in an instant, the shouts of landslides and tsunamis resounded in the sky.

Xiahou Yuan was furious, and said: "The lord will withdraw the army first, and these miscellaneous soldiers will be handed over to a certain person to send away!" ”

Cao Ying advised: "The thieves are not to be feared, but the best people need to be careful to beware of the rogue light horses." ”

Xiahou Yuan said: "It's good to leave these miscellaneous pieces together, although the lord can rest assured, he has his own way to deal with it." ”

Cao Ying then left 1,000 elite soldiers to hand over to Xiahou Yuan, and led the remaining 3,000 people to join forces with Cao Ren's 500 defeated army, and retreated towards Chenliu County in embarrassment.

……

"Hey, hey!"

Guan Hai laughed, and the meteor hammer snake venom in his hand swung out like a letter, straight to Liu Bei's chest, Liu Bei's face was red, and the blood in his chest was surging, although he tried his best to take Guan Hai's three moves just now, it was already the end of the strong crossbow, and he saw the dark meteor hammer smashed like lightning again, and it was too late to dodge, and he couldn't help but be shocked in his heart.

"Poof~"

"Uh~~"

The figure flashed, and a junior colonel stepped forward, which was able to block in front of Liu Bei, Guan Hai's unstoppable hammer just smashed right on his chest, and several sharp wolf tooth steel nails pierced into the small colonel's chest in an instant, and the heavy hammer also smashed his chest into a depression.

Xiao Xiao screamed, opened his mouth and squirted out a mouthful of blood, and hissed with a hideous expression: "Protect ~ protect ~ Lord ~ Gong ~ uh~~"

Several pro-soldiers looked like crazy, roared angrily, and used their bodies as weapons, viciously crashed into Guan Hai, who was chasing after him, and at the same time shouted in their mouths: "Lord, go quickly~"

Liu Bei finally relieved his breath, and the desperate guards of several pro-soldiers gave him a chance to breathe, and while Guan Hai was packing up his pro-soldiers, he fled in panic. Guan Hai's eyes were awe-inspiring, although these pawns were not self-sufficient, the loyalty of the Savior who sacrificed their lives was admirable.

Between the meteor hammers, several pro-soldiers were put down by Guan Hai like cutting melons and vegetables, and then looking up, Liu Bei had already escaped to only one back, Guan Hai couldn't help but be in a hurry, threw off the big stride to chase, and shouted in his mouth: "Hugh go, leave your life~~"

……

Cao Ying led the army to the north to run less than 20 miles, and there was another thief army to cover the killing, when the first thief will run like flying, raise his arms and shout: "Hugh is going to leave Cao Ying, Sun Zhong has been waiting here for a long time~~"

Behind Sun Zhong, two thousand thieves also shouted in unison: "Capture Cao Ying alive ~ Capture Cao Ying alive ~~"

Cao Ying was taken aback, and looked back in shock, Pei Yuanshao and Zhou Cang, the two tributaries of Kou could be caught up with the light horses.

At the critical moment, Le Jin said excitedly: "The lord can lead the army to retreat first, and Le Jin only needs five hundred elite soldiers in his headquarters, and swear to die to the enemy and thieves." ”

……

Yingshui River, deep water.

Liu Bei desperately held on to a wooden stake, stepped on his feet vigorously, trying his best to ensure that he could float on the water and not sink, and then searched on the river, and shouted anxiously: "Second brother~Second brother~"

"Big brother, little brother is here!"

Liu Bei suddenly heard the sound of water behind him, and turned his head in shock, only to see Guan Yu soaking wet and breaking out of the water.

"Second brother, have you ever seen the third brother?"

Guan Yu said: "I haven't seen it, I think it's lost." ”

Liu Bei sighed, his expression was gloomy, the two thousand troops under his department, the first battle of Yingshui was wiped out, even if he escaped by luck, even if Liu Dai didn't care about the previous suspicions, but what face did he have to see? Thinking of the bleak future future, Liu Bei couldn't help but be disheartened.

Guan Yu saw that Liu Bei looked depressed and depressed, and hurriedly persuaded: "Victory or defeat is a common thing in soldiers, and the eldest brother doesn't have to worry about it." ”

Liu Bei sighed: "Having said that, but Yingshui was defeated in the first battle, if it weren't for Cao Ying's withdrawal and putting our army in a desperate situation, this victory would still be unpredictable." ”

Guan Yufeng's eyes were cold, and he said in a deep voice: "Brother Hugh is going to be angry, come and say that if you meet a thief, you will cut off his head with a knife." ”

Liu Bei sighed and said gloomily: "This battle is lost, and I don't have the face to see Liu Yanzhou, where should I go?" ”

Guan Yu said: "Big brother, since you are no longer accommodated in Liu Yanzhou, it is better to go up the mountain and fall into the grass for the sake of the Suo surname, and you are also at ease, how about making plans when you find the third brother?" ”

Liu Bei said: "If the grass is a coward, it is no different from the liukou, this matter must not be done, and the duting marquis grandson zan has an old age, you can go to it, and you will be willing to see it." ”
