Chapter 242: Slashing Huaxiong
Sun Jian was stunned, and immediately understood what Zu Mao meant, he wanted to use his flesh and blood to block the iron hooves of Xiliang's pursuers, and win a little more time for the escape of the lord. "Tairong! Come back—" Sun Jian shouted at Zu Mao, unaware that tears had blurred his vision.
Zu Mao turned a deaf ear and rushed towards Hua Xiong with a sword. "Traitor! Come on! ”
Hua Xiong just glanced at it contemptuously, and with the kung fu of two horses and one wrong stirrup, Hua Xiong raised his knife and cut Zu Mao in two.
Although it was just a face-to-face kung fu, Zu Mao had been beheaded by Hua Xiong, but in this short moment, it also won a little time for Sun Jian, originally Hua Xiong had chased Sun Jian to a distance of twenty or thirty zhang, and after a delay, this distance was widened to fifty zhang away.
However, Hua Xiong was confident that he was fast, so he didn't pay attention to this distance at all, and shouted: "Sun Jian! Today you have no way to enter the heavens and no way to enter the earth, if you are willing to surrender, Hua can leave you a whole corpse! ”
Sun Jian bit his lip stubbornly, didn't say a word, and galloped wildly. Since Zu Mao used his blood to block the enemy for the lord, then Sun Jian's life is no longer his alone, for Zu Mao, for the soldiers who died in the Yuting Canyon, Sun Jian told himself that he must live!
Seeing that he was getting closer and closer to Taniguchi, Sun Jian saw a glimmer of hope for life, and desperately whipped his horse's back and rushed towards Taniguchi desperately. Hua Xiong's willing cooked duck flew away, and he also sped up his speed and chased after him.
Suddenly, the position of the valley mouth stirred up bursts of dust and smoke, and in the dust and smoke, countless iron horses seemed to fall from the sky, and the tide rushed over.
Sun Jian suddenly felt a chill in his heart. Sighed secretly: "My life is at stake!" "Cheng Pu Huang Gai in the rear team doesn't have so many cavalry, and now that the iron cavalry is in charge, I'm afraid it can only be Xiliang people.
But he saw a general flash out of the cavalry, with a red face and long hair, and asked from a distance: "Is it Sun Wentai in front?" ”
Sun Jian was slightly stunned, and the words that called people meant respect, obviously the people who came were friends rather than enemies, and he was slightly pleased, and said, "Yes, it is Sun." Dare to ask who your Excellency is? ”
"I am Liu Runde's righteous brother Guan Yu. I came to the rescue of Sun Taishou on the orders of my eldest brother. "The person who came was Guan Yu.
When Sun Jian heard that it was Liu Ze's subordinate, he was overjoyed. The two sides were talking, and the speed of the horse did not decrease much, and it was a few breaths. Sun Jian had joined Guan Yu's team. Although it is still a cold spring. Sun Jian's clothes were soaked with sweat.
Guan Yu smiled slightly and said, "Mrs. Sun is resting." This Dong thief's men and horses will be met by Guan. ”
Sun Jian nodded, pointed at Hua Xiong and said, "This person is Hua Xiong, the fierce general of Xiliang, General Guan should be careful." ”
Guan Yu snatched his long hair. Half-squinted his phoenix eyes, and sneered: "A certain person who sees him as just a person who sells his head by inserting a bid, and he dares to be so rampant, waiting for someone to take someone else's head!" As he spoke, Guan Yu urged the red horse and greeted him with a knife.
Hua Xiong saw that someone had picked up Sun Jian, and it was too late to catch up, so he couldn't help but be furious, grabbed the reins, and shouted: "Bah! Who are you that dare to stand in the way of Pontus? ”
Guan Yu said loudly: "A certain is the plain country Sima Guan Yu is also, a traitor and a traitor, why not get off the horse and surrender early!" ”
Hearing that Guan Yu was just a small military horse, Hua Xiong laughed and said, "Nobody, dare not be ashamed!" Hand over Sun Jian with each other, and Bendu can let you live! ”
Guan Yu said proudly: "If you want Sun Taishou, it's not difficult, if you win the big knife in Guan's hand, if you want to kill it, you will listen to it." ”
Hua Xiong is also a first-class brave general in the Xiliang Army, and today even Sun Jian, who is known as the Tiger of Jiangdong, was beaten to the ground by him, and he couldn't imagine that a small military Sima would dare to openly confront him out of nowhere, how not to make him smoke. He shouted angrily: "Then the governor will cut you down first to sacrifice the flag!" ”
As he spoke, he urged the horse forward, and slashed at Guan Yu with a swing of his knife. Hua Xiong made a long-handled ring-headed knife, with a thick back and a wide blade, weighing about 50 catties.
Guan Yu sneered twice, and the Qinglong Yanyue Knife seemed to be like a swift wind, and greeted it.
"Bell!" With a bang, sparks splashed everywhere, Hua Xiong only felt that the tiger's mouth was numb, blood was bursting out, and even the long knife of the ring head that he was proud of was knocked out of a gap. In Dong Zhuojun, except for Lu Bu, Hua Xiong thought that his strength was not lost to anyone, and he didn't expect that a nobody who appeared at the mouth of the Yuting Valley also had such strength. A master can often detect the strength of the opponent in a breath, Hua Xiong is not stupid, and immediately understands that this person's martial arts are more than one and a half stars higher than him.
Knowing that he was invincible, Hua Xiong immediately turned his horse and fled. Guan Yu didn't allow him to escape, so he urged the horse to chase after him.
Although Hua Xiong's mount is a famous horse in Xiliang, compared to the sweat and blood horse, it is definitely not a level, and in a few breaths, Guan Yu has chased behind him. Hua Xiong's soul was in danger, and he desperately swung a knife, trying to survive. But Guan Yu didn't give him this opportunity, flashed sideways, and then raised the knife in his hand, and cut Hua Xiong off the horse.
As soon as the Xiliang soldiers saw that the main general was dead, they immediately turned around and fled.
Guan Yu did not chase after him, and ordered someone to cut off Huaxiong's head and collect his troops back.
At this time, Liu Ze also rushed over with his troops. Since leaving the sour jujube, Liu Ze's team has not stopped, all the way to the west, and when he first arrived at Yuting, he found that Sun Jian's subordinate Cheng Puhuanggai was attacked by the Xiliang cavalry. The second general Cheng Huang led no more than 3,000 foot soldiers, and was attacked by more than 1,000 Xiliang iron cavalry, and the situation was critical.
Liu Ze immediately ordered an attack on the Xiliang cavalry, and the archers, who had a clear advantage, quickly repelled the Xiliang cavalry and rescued Cheng Pu and Huang Gai. After inquiry, he learned that Sun Jian was trapped in the Yuting Valley, so he urgently ordered Guan Yu to lead his troops to the rescue, and he also rushed up after cleaning up the mess.
When he saw Sun Jian, Guan Yu had already killed Hua Xiong, and Liu Ze arched his hand and said: "The little brother is late for rescue, and I ask Brother Wentai to forgive me." ”
At this time, Sun Jian, who lost his armor and took off his armor, was a wolf, looked sad, his face was full of shame, he bowed and said: "If it weren't for the rescue of Brother Runde today, I'm afraid Jian would have been buried in this pavilion." Da En didn't dare to say thank you, and he would return the grass on a different day. ”
Liu Ze smiled slightly and said: "Brother Wentai, why should you be polite, since you and I are robes, we should be in the same boat." ”
Sun Jian packed up the remnants of the army, and even lost more than half, and most of the casualties came from the Yuting Gorge. However, although Han Dang, the forward after leaving the valley, was also attacked by the Xiliang cavalry, Han Dang was brave and desperately organized a formation to resist the attack of the Xiliang soldiers, although his men and horses were only 2,000 people, but the casualty ratio was the least among the three people.
After recovering Zu Mao's body, Sun Jian lay down on the corpse and cried, heartbroken, and the three armies were also moved.
Cheng Pu comforted: "The deceased is gone, take the Lord's Day by the way, don't hurt your body because of excessive sadness." ”
Sun Jian cried: "If it weren't for Tairong, I would have died here, I am ashamed of Tairong!" ”
"If Zu Tairong knows that the master is safe and sound, he can also smile at Jiuquan." Huang Gai also persuaded.
Sun Jian wiped away his tears, got up and pulled his sword, pointed his sword at the sky, gritted his teeth and said: "I and Dong Thief, I swear not to stand apart!" If you don't avenge this revenge, you swear not to be a man! He turned back to Liu Ze and said: "Dog Zice is still in Luyang, and he wants to return to Luyang, reconvene his men and horses, and fight again with Dong Thief!" The military affairs of the Tiger Prison Pass are bothered to ask the virtuous brother to do it for him. ”
Liu Ze and Sun Jian parted. Guan Yu watched Sun Jian's troops leave from afar and exclaimed: "Sun Wentai is still unswerving after this fiasco, and he has not lost his heroic nature. ”
Guan Yu has an arrogant personality and regards the heroes of the world as nothing, and it is really rare to get his praise. Liu Ze smiled, Sun Jian can be called an unbeatable Xiaoqiang, with a resolute personality and a strange temperament, he is definitely the number one person on the political stage in the late Han Dynasty, and he has created a solid foundation for Sun Wu in Jiangdong. It's a pity that Sun Jian died short-lived, otherwise the history of these three kingdoms would likely be rewritten.
Pan Feng came over to report: "Enlighten the lord, the battlefield has been cleaned, whether to march into the Tiger Prison Pass immediately, please instruct the lord!" ”
Liu Ze shook his head, joke, the tiger prison is close to the dragon and the tiger, and he can break through the wall with the three thousand light horses under his command?
"Pass the order, garrison the pavilion, and quickly submit the battle report to the sour jujube battalion!"
┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄
"What? Sun Wentai was ambushed by Huaxiong in Yuting and returned in a miserable defeat? Yuan Shao received the report handed by Cao Cao in the Chinese military tent and couldn't help but be shocked.
Cao Cao sighed: "Yes, Sun Wentai rushed forward with light troops, was ambushed by Huaxiong in Yuting, and broke his general Zu Mao, and his soldiers were also killed and wounded. Fortunately, Liu Runde, the acting minister of the plains, rescued in time, so that Sun Jian's troops were saved from being annihilated by the whole army. Liu Runde killed Hua Xiong in this battle, which somewhat saved some face for the first battle of the coalition army. ”
Yuan Shao couldn't help but lament: "I can't imagine that Sun Wentai, who is known as the Tiger of Jiangdong, was also defeated in the hands of the Xiliang Army, and his spirit has been lost. "Originally, the princes of all walks of life were afraid of the Xiliang Army like a tiger, and Sun Jian, the only one who dared to argue with the Xiliang Army, was also defeated.
Cao Cao said: "Not really, in this battle, Liu Runde killed Hua Xiong, the general of the Tiger Prison in one fell swoop, and it can be regarded as getting rid of one of Dong Zhuo's arms. ”
Although Yuan Shao was a little reluctant, he also nodded, ordered someone to hang Huaxiong's head at the hanging bucket to show the public, and sent a messenger to send cattle wine to Liu Zebu of the garrison Yuting as a reward.
Cao Cao said again: "Runde is on the table, please all the princes to march quickly, now the head of the Tiger Prison Pass will be Hua Xiong, and the rest of the army is panicking, it is a good time for our army to capture the Tiger Prison Pass, if Dong Zhuo sends additional reinforcements, he will definitely miss the opportunity." ”
Yuan Shao said with some embarrassment: "The opportunity must not be lost, and it will not come again, how can I not know the way of marching?" But Meng De is not ignorant of the situation of the princes from all walks of life, even if I am the leader of the alliance, it is difficult to dispatch. (To be continued......)
