Text Chapter 95 The soul of the brave soldier
Niu Fu, who was in a hurry, fled for dozens of miles, and except for five or six hundred cavalry around him, no one else followed, and he didn't know where he had gone.
"General, let's rest for a while. It's so tiring. The cavalryman rode up to Niu Fu and gave advice.
"It's safe here." Niu Fu still asked with a palpitating look.
"It's safe, we ran for dozens of miles in one go, even if there are pursuers behind us, I'm afraid we will be thrown away." As the cavalry commander replied, he turned over and dismounted on the ground. He was so tired.
With the cavalry commander taking the lead, the other cavalry also turned over and dismounted one by one, and fell on this small dirt slope, panting heavily.
I didn't eat at night, I ran so far in one go, I didn't even have a chance to drink saliva, and I was really tired.
Niu Fu was actually tired, and it was just the idea of running for his life just now that he ran so far. Now that the danger seemed to be lifted, he dismounted and sat down on the ground to rest.
It was only after Niu Fu and they had just rested for less than half an hour that more than a dozen healthy horses flew behind them. As soon as he heard the sound of horses' hooves, Niu Fu's ears immediately pricked up and said, "Who is it?" It can't be a chaser, right? ”
"No, it's General Xu Rong who came." The scout in charge of the guards in the distance replied in a loud voice.
Hearing that it was not a chasing soldier, Niu Fu breathed a sigh of relief, and at the same time thought in his heart, how to make Xu Rong confess his guilt, that would be the best result.
It is said that Xu Rong also escaped with great effort.
originally escaped from the encirclement of Yuan Shao's army, and there was a great element of luck in it. Next, he encountered the remnants of the army led by Gao Ran. The two sides immediately had a big fight, and after about twenty rounds of fighting, Xu Rong found an opportunity to fight and leave.
Finally got rid of Gao Ran's followers, and after catching up with Niu Fu, before Xu Rongren arrived, the voice came first, "Niu Fu, why did you flee first and cause my army to lose the battle?" ”
Xu Rong wanted to ask the teacher for the crime, how could Niu Fu let him succeed, he immediately got up and said, "Xu Rong, I haven't said anything about you yet?" As the commander of an army, he was cowardly and fled without a fight, if it weren't for my heroic cavalry to cut off the rear for you, where would you have escaped? I see that when you meet the master after you go back, you will still bear all the sins, and when the time comes, I will say some good things for you. ”
To say that Niu Fu's hat is bigger, it directly attributes the reason for the failure to Xu Rong.
Listening to Niu Fu's sophistry, Xu Rong, who had just arrived, almost fell off his horse, he really couldn't imagine that there were such shameless people in the world, and he didn't have the ability to fight, and his ability to fight a rake was not small.
"Phew! Niu Fu, what are you talking about, why is not a single one true? Do you say this worthy of your brothers who died unjustly in this war? Xu Rong said angrily.
"Okay, Xu Rong, as the main general, you should be the main responsibility for the defeat on the battlefield, even if the souls of those brothers are looking for you, not me." Niu Fu looked too lazy to argue with Xu Rong, but in fact, he knew that if he really quarreled and started to move, he would only suffer the loss.
Niu Fu didn't want to quarrel, how could Xu Rong want to quarrel, he just wanted to find his own reason, at least he was defeated in this battle, and the blame was not his own, otherwise, not only would he be in trouble, but his family in Chang'an would not be much better. Harming his wife and children is exactly what Dong Zhuo has always done with his subordinates.
"Okay, General Niu, I just need you to say the halal image, even if it is to bear a certain amount of responsibility." Xu Rong didn't want to quarrel, so he wanted to convince Niu Fu in a calm tone, he knew that this person was Dong Zhuo's son-in-law, and if he was willing to stand up and share the responsibility, his guilt would be much smaller.
"This can't be, it was originally your command error, how can you blame me? Okay, Hugh is talking about this matter, let's go. Niu Fu watched Xu Rong approach him, and he was a little apprehensive, and he didn't even dare to rest, so he got up and turned over on the horse.
Because Xu Rong came, the team that originally wanted to rest for a while had no choice but to embark on the road back to Chang'an. Among them, Niu Fu walked in the front, followed by more than a dozen pro-soldiers and the cavalry team of the Qu Commander, obviously they were preventing Xu Rong from using force.
Xu Rong was in the center of the team with more than a dozen personal soldiers, surrounded by Xiliang cavalry, most of these people were still loyal to Dong Zhuo, at least between Xu Rong and Taishi, they would not hesitate to choose the latter.
"General, what should I do? If Niu Fu really goes back and talks nonsense, then you will be in danger of being killed. The soldier who had persuaded Xu Rong to retreat spoke again.
"What about me? I talked to him well, but he ignored him. Could it be that I really tied up this person? Besides, you can see it, it's all his people all around here, and I can't even get close. Xu Rong is not stupid, he has already seen that the other party has the intention of guarding himself.
"You can't sit still." The pro-soldier still said with some reluctance.
"If you don't, how?" Xu Rong shook his head, looking like he couldn't think of a good idea.
The pro-soldiers didn't know what to say at this time, they couldn't talk, they had no chance of winning, and once they started, they would tear their faces, and there was no room for turning around.
Just when Xu Rong didn't know what to do, there was a sudden commotion in front of the team, and then someone shouted, "It's not good, there are ambush soldiers!" ”
"And ambushes?" After Xu Rong heard this, he couldn't help but be shocked. How far is this from Yuan Shao's military camp, if so many ambushes have been arranged, it shouldn't be encountered now.
Before I could figure out what was going on, I saw that the front army had been completely confused, and in the middle of the dark, I only saw arrows shooting straight at me, followed by the sound of arrows falling from horses in the Xiliang cavalry one after another.
"Rush over." It was still the previous cavalry commander, and when he noticed that there were ambushes and a large number of arrow feathers, he took the lead in screaming wildly and led the troops to charge.
I have had such an experience before, and when I faced Gao Guan, I used the situation of charging to get through the difficulties.
It's just that this Qu Chang didn't know that Gao Ran was leading two thousand old and weak, and his current opponent was indeed the most elite Zhang family light cavalry in the world.
Zhang Chao defeated Fan Chou in a big battle, and Lu Bu took the head to ask for credit, and at the same time as receiving the reward, maybe he could take the Zhang family light chair around and look forward to a greater harvest.
Lu Bu was eager to make meritorious contributions, so he naturally led people to swim around, and just happened to meet the scouts sent to find out that a Xiliang army was retreating to Chang'an through his own territory.
Such a good interception opportunity, how could Lu Bu miss it, and besides, he brought the most elite Zhang family light horse. Immediately, he led people straight forward, and as soon as the two sides met head-on, without saying a word, there was a burst of bows and arrows waiting.
To say that Zhang Jiajun's horse archery kung fu is really good, with the guidance of Huang Zhong and Tai Shici, two bow and arrow masters, not to mention a hundred shots and a hundred hits, it is not far away. Even though it's dark now, there are so many people on the other side that they can hit the target if they shoot at will.
A burst of arrows came and hit the target of no less than 200 people. Then they saw a general rushing towards them with hundreds of cavalry.
"I'll do it by myself!" Lu Bu saw that the other party's iron cavalry rushed out of no more than 100 people, so he rushed alone with confidence. He also knows the importance of Zhang Jiajun to Zhang Chao, and if there are too many losses under the First World War, I am afraid it will not be easy to explain. simply rode alone and killed the past.
Qu Chang rushed straight with a hundred people. The closer he is, the more confident he becomes, especially when he notices that the number of people on the other side is not very large, but only a few hundred, so he believes that this is the right thing to do.
Qu Chang was still secretly happy, and he saw Lu Bu rushing out from the opponent's camp.
Wearing a three-pronged purple and gold crown, a Xichuan red cotton robe on his body, a beast-faced head swallowing chain armor, a delicate lion belt around his waist, and a Fang Tian painting halberd, the majestic Lu Bu entered the sight of the cavalry commander.
"Why does this person seem to be..."The closer he got, the Qu Chang also recognized Lu Bu's identity, but before he could say it completely, a black shadow smashed towards him.
To say that this Qu Chang ran too fast, he actually ran directly to the head, opening up a certain distance from the team behind him, which made him the first target for Lu Bu to solve.
When the shadow fell, it was also the moment when the composer fell to the ground and died. Lu Bu, who had eliminated the leader of the cavalry with just one blow, took advantage of the red rabbit horse and swung his halberd from side to side.
A cavalryman named Xiliang was shot down from his horse under Lu Bu's deadly halberd.
There were hundreds of cavalrymen, and most of them were killed because of Lu Bu alone. Seeing that the situation was not good, the others retreated one after another, and seeing that the enemy would be so brave, these people were all frightened.
In other words, a soldier is the courage of a general, and it will be the soul of a soldier.
The main general is brave, and the soldiers are useless.
The elite of the soldiers will be full of confidence and bravery.
Lu Bu cooperated with Zhang Jiajun's light cavalry to achieve such a realm. On the other hand, the Xiliang soldiers, after Qu Chang was killed in battle, were afraid and retreated again and again.
The retreating cavalry and Niu Fu converged in one place, and Niu Fu had already come to Xu Rong's side at this time.
"General Xu, please take action to defeat the enemy." Niu Fu knows his own catties, and when it comes to force, he is just not much stronger than that Qu Chang, and he is afraid that he will not be able to defeat the enemy general.
