273. I am solid

"Cao Wenzhao, take your life!"

If the leaders of the lantern department talk about martial arts, they may not be much worse than Miao Mei, Feishan Tiger, and Big Red Wolf, everyone is a hero from the green forest, and they are playing with their heads, who is afraid of who can't?

A good man with a Pu knife was the first to block Cao Wenzhao's horse, but he soon discovered a problem, the Pu knife was too short...... The war horse is too high, if he wants to attack Cao Wenzhao on the horse, he can only jump up and chop, or otherwise he can only chop the horse...... "Look at the knife!" "This commander is not ambiguous, since you can only cut the horse, then cut the horse, it is better than not being able to cut anything! However, as soon as his Pu knife was swung, the tip of Cao Wenzhao's spear on horseback was turned, and it stabbed into his chest with a "plop", pushing him backwards and flying out, and a rain of blood flew up...... Then the second leader arrived, and the weapon in his hand was more suitable, a long club. Even if he stands on the ground, he can attack Cao Wenzhao on horseback. He roared, and the man followed the stick, swept violently towards the horse's back, aiming at Cao Wenzhao's waist.

I saw Cao Wenzhao return the gun, and the long stick hit the barrel of the gun, making a muffled sound of "bump...... The leader only felt numb, and the long stick in his hand was actually bounced back...... Cao Wenzhao's arm strength is far beyond the leader's imagination, coupled with the heavy point steel gun, how can an ordinary wooden stick fight?

At the moment when the long stick was bounced up, Cao Wenzhao's arm shook, the tip of the spear jumped up, and the leader was stabbed to the ground with a thud.

"Damn, don't go up one by one...... To be on the line! ”

Several leaders surrounded Cao Wenzhao from the front, left, and right directions at the same time.

"Thieves and rats, Ann can stop me!" Cao Wenzhao roared, the tip of the gun flashed repeatedly, like a snowflake flying, and the three leaders were shot at the same time and fell to the ground.

"That's amazing!" Xu Renjie was shocked.

"It's really amazing!" Miao Mei, Feishan Tiger, and Big Red Wolf were also stunned, and the three of them couldn't help but wipe their sweat, if they had surrounded them just now, I was afraid that now they would also be hit by Cao Wenzhao's fast gun, lying on the ground and humming.

He ...... More powerful than the second brother Wang, right? Xu Renjie couldn't help but say.

"That's right!" Zhu Yuanzhang nodded: "Although Wang Er is fierce, he is not clever enough, and he is not good at riding horses...... You must know that among thousands of troops, once the general loses his horse, you can't rush out even if you have the strength to go through the sky, but if there is a horse, the situation is different...... Wait and see. ”

I saw Cao Wenzhao killing people while beating his horse and rushing forward. Because the momentum of the war horse was very terrifying, the ordinary thieves did not dare to stand in front of him, for fear of being kicked by the war horse, so many timid thieves took the initiative to get out of the way. Occasionally, one or two people stubbornly blocked the front, and Cao Wenzhao waved his gun and flew the person who was in the way first.

Although the leaders of the lantern department were still surrounding from several directions, how could the leaders on foot catch up with the horsemen? In just a few breaths, Cao Wenzhao killed most of the army formation.

"That's an exaggeration, isn't it?" Xu Renjie Khan said: "What do you need soldiers to do in the war? Let Cao Wenzhao alone break through any military formation......"

"Don't talk nonsense! It's just that the lighting department is too unorganized and undisciplined! Zhu Yuanzhang shook his head and said: "If it is our military formation, Cao Wenzhao will not be able to break through, as long as there are a dozen or so brave soldiers to form a spear wall and erect the spears forward together, it is enough to block him." ”

"Whew...... I see. Xu Renjie was also shocked by the sudden situation just now, so he said that kind of irresponsible words, and after being reminded by Zhu Yuanzhang, he hurriedly collected his spirit and watched carefully.

I saw that it didn't take long for Cao Wenzhao to break through the interception of the lantern troops, leaping horses and spears, through the formation, and rushed to the south side of the siege of the thieves, and at this time, the officers and soldiers of the southern camp of 1,000 people just arrived, and the thousand people rushed over on the way to hear "Cao Wenzhao is dead", "Cao Wenzhao was killed by us" such roars, and the people were panicking, and suddenly saw Cao Wenzhao bathing in his body, and the power that came out of the formation, he immediately cheered in unison!

"Mighty!"

"General Cao is mighty!"

Cao Wenzhao did not stop, a gallop, instantly rushed to the south camp of a thousand people, a reins of the horse, the war horse suddenly raised its head and neighed, and then came a 180-degree rotation, and when the front hooves of the war horse landed, Cao Wenzhao became the direction of facing the thief soldiers, he raised the bloodstained steel gun in his hand, pointed to the north, and said loudly: "A thousand soldiers in the south camp listen to the order...... Kill through the thief formation and rescue Dong Rescue who is trapped in the thief formation! ”

"Yes!"

"Yes!"

"Roar!"

"Hah!"

The army roars like a tiger! ――

"Inform the lights to be lit, abandon the officers and soldiers of the Dongying who are surrounded in the middle, withdraw the army formation, and retreat north to the back of our army!" Zhu Yuanzhang also gave an order at the same time.

The herald quickly passed Zhu Yuanzhang's order over, and it just so happened that the lantern was beaten by Cao Wenzhao's single cavalry just now, and he no longer had the courage to continue to fight with the officers and soldiers...... Retreat to the north......"

The retreat of the thieves, that is really no rule at all, as soon as they say retreat, suddenly there is a "boom" sound, all over the mountains, running north together, such a run is actually very dangerous, if the officers and soldiers take the opportunity to pursue, maybe they will be defeated and lost, fortunately, they ran a few steps, and saw Zhu Yuanzhang's 1,000 elite soldiers lined up in the north, and they were lined up in a very neat military formation, facing the south from afar.

Seeing this army, the thieves who were running around felt a little solid in their hearts, and they didn't run so chaotically, they ran over to Zhu Yuanzhang's army together, and then spontaneously stood behind Zhu Yuanzhang's military formation, adding a sense of heaviness to the military formation.

Due to the withdrawal of the thieves, Dongying, who had been surrounded in the middle, finally breathed a sigh of relief, and Cao Wenzhao led Nanying straight over and joined forces with Dongying. General Cao Bianjiao shouted loudly: "Uncle, you just rode into battle alone, you really frightened your nephew......

Cao Wenzhao waved his hand and did not reply to him.

Cao Bianjiao looked at the thieves who were assembling to the north and re-arranging, and couldn't help but say hatefully: "Uncle, let's continue to pursue?" ”

Cao Wenzhao's brows were tightly furrowed, he looked up at the army, and saw that the eastern camp had been surrounded and beaten for a long time, with heavy casualties, and many soldiers were wounded, especially the side that was supported by the 1,000 elite thieves, and the situation was even worse. Looking at the southern camp again, although their morale was greatly boosted by their own slaughter of the army, they had become exhausted when they came from afar.

And...... Riding alone is not an easy job, in fact, Cao Wenzhao's own arms are already sore, and the legs that clamp the horse's belly also feel a little trembling.

He raised his head again to look at the thief soldiers, only to see that the thieves who ran to the north had regrouped behind the thousand elite thieves, layer upon layer, with countless heads, and the north camp that had rushed from the north had already been dispersed, and even half of the figure could not be seen.

"Alas!" Cao Wenzhao sighed lightly: "Forget it, don't chase it!" Let's straighten out our army first, find the nearest city to rest, and we can't pursue any further......"

"That'...... Wouldn't you just let the lamp go? Cao Bianjiao only felt very unwilling.

"If you don't let it go, you have to let it go...... If we keep fighting, we may not be able to win...... If you fight with the thieves and lose both, and all this elite border army is folded here, what should you do? Cao Wenzhao said in a deep voice: "Collect the troops!" Return...... It is not too late to reassemble the fleeing Beiying soldiers and reorganize the army, and find another lamp. ”

"It's all because of the reinforcements that came suddenly!" Cao Bianjiao pointed at Zhu Yuanzhang's army and scolded hatefully: "I don't know where this army came from, it's so powerful......"

"I don't know, just ask!" Cao Wenzhao called over a bold scout and ordered: "You go to the thief camp to spread a word, just say that Cao Wenzhao, the deputy chief soldier of Yansui, has something to ask them, what is the origin of these thousand soldiers!" ”

The scout Pegasus came out of the battle and rushed over against Zhu Yuanzhang's army on a single horse.

The thieves were nervous for a while, and they didn't know what medicine was being sold in the gourds of the officers and soldiers, but Zhu Yuanzhang knew that when the military formations of the two armies were far away, a person suddenly ran out, and he must have something to say, so he waved his hand and told the archers to hold down their bows and not release their arrows.

The scout ran closer, separated by twenty or thirty paces, and shouted, "Lord Cao Wenzhao, the chief soldier of Yansui, has something to ask you...... You guys...... Where did the soldiers come from? ”

This shout reached Zhu Yuanzhang's army, and Xu Renjie grinned: "Cao Wenzhao is really interesting, he actually sent someone over to ask this, we are not stupid, why do we want to expose our identities?" ”

"If he doesn't answer, he will go everywhere in the future, and he will be able to find us after all." Zhu Yuanzhang said lightly: "It's better to give him a plausible answer to nonsense, and let him guess slowly." ”

Zhu Yuanzhang shouted loudly: "Scout, you go back and tell Cao Wenzhao that we are Guyuan!" He'll understand when he listens. ”

"Solid?" The scout was puzzled, but he had already received the answer, and he didn't want to stay in front of the thief's army for a long time, what if he shot an arrow somewhere? The scout returned to the ranks of officers and soldiers and reported to Cao Wenzhao: "General, the other party said that they are solid. ”

"Solid?" Cao Wenzhao frowned, thought hard, and after thinking for a long time, he suddenly realized, and hit each other with both palms: "It turned out to be the Guyuan border army!" No wonder it's so powerful. ”

"Uncle...... What does that mean? Cao Bianjiao was puzzled.

Cao Wenzhao said: "On December 24 of the first year of Chongzhen, the border army of Guyuan (now Ningxiayuan) mutinied due to lack of salary, and the soldiers fled after plundering the state treasury and joined the Liukou army...... Later, I never heard of this rebel again, and I didn't expect them to be mixed with the army that lit the lamp......"
