Chapter 141: Time and Fate Are Impermanent (8)
In this boundless, boundless prairie, once there is no horse, how far can a person run on his own?
This is when Hu Yanshi was chasing all the way on his horse, he asked his lieutenant what he said, and when he said this, he had a wanton smile on his face that he was holding the chance of victory.
Yes, on this grassland, the only place for people to hide is just those waist-deep grass, although it seems that there is no trace, but under the encirclement and search of the army, how long can people hide?
As long as the specific scope is determined, it is only a matter of time before you want to find the other party.
Hu Yanshi didn't think that the other party had his original ability, could understand the subtle hidden methods, and had such good luck to escape, not to mention, the other party did not have the same ability to use so many subordinates to participate in a large-scale search like he is now.
On this side, after Cao Yan hurriedly said goodbye to the god of fire who had already choked his breath, his body and mind were severely damaged, and when he stood up, he felt that he had never been so sad in his life.
He has been an orphan since he was a child, so he has always been extremely restrained in his feelings, but for those who really go into his heart, he attaches great importance to it, Xiaohuo was raised by him, gets along with him day and night, and has been with him for many years, but today because of his own decision-making mistakes, resulting in a catastrophe, this is no less than his own son died in the hands of the other party, and at the last moment, the Rakshasa woman who expressed his inner love to himself, to say that he has no feelings for her at all, but not really, lonely men and widows get along these days, and they have the friendship of each other, how can they not be emotional?
He had just been suppressing himself, but the last words of Ivasha were a heart-wrenching pain for him.
A seriously injured woman, in order not to drag herself down, took the initiative to go down, facing the enemy's thousands of troops alone, not to mention whether she was willing to surrender in the end, even if she was willing to surrender, would the other party accept it?
No, it won't.
Cao Yan's mind was extremely disordered, his mind was chaotic, he was always thinking about these haves and nos, he covered his injured shoulder, grabbed the sword upside down, and the whole person was completely driven by a will to survive driving him to stumble forward, but in fact, the injuries on his body were not particularly serious, and the most affecting of them was this arrow, in other words, he still had the strength to fight, but he was just confused.
Behind him, in the distance, from the whistling wind, he heard a rush of horses' hooves, he woke up, and then remembered that Hu Yanshi's men, there were still many cavalry, if he had been running aimlessly like this, his feet would not be as good as others, and he would definitely not be able to run away.
Thinking of this, he suddenly calmed down from the pain, first looked left and right, then quickly found a place where the grass was more lush, walked over quickly, and then lay down directly, shrunk up, and carefully hid inside.
Not far behind him, Hu Yanshi and his army also chased after him all the way, without thinking about giving Cao Yan a chance to breathe.
At this moment, the adjutant beside him suddenly pointed to the horse corpse in the distance and exclaimed, "Look, General!"
When Hu Yanshi heard this, he quickly turned his head to look, and when he saw that it was the corpse of the son of the god of fire, he couldn't help but sigh and said, "It's a pity that it's a good horse." ”
Such a divine horse, as a person in the army, he is happy to see it, it is inevitable, and there is a way that a good horse is matched with a good saddle, such a brave general, naturally it should also be matched with a good horse, once this divine horse is missing, the boy's combat effectiveness will also drop a lot, and he also knows, on the battlefield, especially for the cavalry, the horse and the man are one, the mind communicates with each other, and the life is entrusted to each other, some people are closer to the horse than to their own wife, you killed his horse, how can he not hate you?
But now is not the time to think about this, the top priority is to find him as soon as possible, thinking of this, Hu Yanshi took a deep breath, and then continued to urge: "Chase, the horse corpse is here, he can't run far." ”
The adjutant was also in good spirits, and quickly agreed: "Yes, general!"
Seeing his excited look, Hu Yanshi, who was worried in his heart, couldn't help but instruct again: "Remember, you must be captured alive!"
The man immediately clenched his fists and agreed, "Yes!"
It's just that there are waist-deep dense grasses in front of them, and ordinary beasts can hide, let alone people, how can they find them, and there is no help from hunting dogs with a keen sense of smell, so they can only rely on the stupid method of searching forward inch by inch, but they can be sure of one thing, that is, the other party must be in this grass, because once a person stands up and runs, he will definitely be discovered.
Here, Cao Yan'an lay quietly in the grass, not moving, he couldn't see people, so he could only judge the enemy's position by listening to the sound.
Closer, closer, the sound of horses' hooves trampling on the grass in his ears became closer and closer, and the sound of his breathing subconsciously converged, and the whole person was like an ordinary stone.
Hearing the sound of the grass being plucked by the weapon nearby, Cao Yan's heart sank, and he jumped up from the grass where he was hiding, the cold light of the sword flashed, and the sword slashed obliquely, quickly slashing the enemy who had not had time to react from the horse, and then directly stepped on the stirrup and turned over on the horse, pulled the reins, and rushed forward directly, the action was done in one go, without dragging the mud and water.
"Found him!"
"Chase!"
"Quick!"
"Chase!"
It's a pity that no matter how good his calculations are, but here he has just robbed the horse and fled, and he hasn't run too far, and the next moment he heard a sudden wail from the horse under his crotch, and his legs were weak, and he was thrown out directly.
It turned out that people had been secretly guarding against his move, and after seeing him kill people and seize the horse, someone immediately had a quick eye, aimed at the position, and threw a rope sleeve to the bottom, with round balls tied on both sides, and after flying out, he wrapped it around the horse's legs and tied a knot, and the horse lost its balance, and suddenly fell to the ground, and the people on the horse were also thrown down.
Cao Yan didn't notice it for a while, grabbed the sword, rolled around on the ground and unloaded the momentum, disgraced and dirty, and the grass was broken, but he didn't dare to delay at all, so he could only continue to stand up and run forward.
The enemy in the rear was also shouting excitedly.
"What are you going to run, surrender, you can't run away!"
"Stop!"
"Surrender quickly, spare you from dying!"
"Stop! or I'll let the arrows go!"
Cao Yan also knew that he couldn't run away, and when he heard the sound of horses' hooves getting closer and closer, he gritted his teeth, turned around suddenly, held his sword, looked at the horse in front of him and stopped, and then gradually shouted towards the enemies who surrounded him: "Whoever is not afraid of death, come up!"
Seeing that he was in a desperate situation, he dared to be so rampant, and at that moment, someone directly stepped forward, holding a spear, and stabbed directly at this side.
Cao Yan dodged, quickly dodged, cut off the barrel of the gun with a sword, and then hit the horse next to him with a fit, and stumbled it directly, and fell to the side with his master.
"Hey!"
The man let out an exclamation.
"Poof!"
But at the next moment, Cao Yan stepped forward directly, sealed his throat with a sword, and took his life.
This accident once again deterred the enemy in front of them, that is, at this time, they finally woke up, the person in front of them is not a soft persimmon that can be kneaded by them, but a real dragon, if you are careless, the end will be the same as the person just now.
But they didn't take the initiative to go up to fight, there was Hu Yanshi's order, and they were not good at shooting arrows to attack from a distance, but they still had a way, but they saw dozens of horsemen coming over together, and when they saw the opportunity, they threw out the ropes in their hands and put them on him.
Cao Yan's eyes widened, knowing what the other party was planning, he held the sword in his hand at the moment, danced a sword flower, and while retreating, he picked back and forth, and in a few clicks, he actually cut all the ropes that flew over.
I don't know what kind of divine weapon he is holding in his hand, it is so sharp.
"Come again!"
Seeing that the enemy had returned in vain again, he roared loudly and wantonly, with a hideous expression, as if he had exhausted all his strength, but only he understood that he was only for catharsis.
I didn't think that I was full of ambition to lead the soldiers out, I thought that I could make contributions in one fell swoop, become famous in the south, turn the tide of the tide, and help the general of the building, but I didn't want to go out of the division, and I didn't make much success, so because of a momentary mistake, I was in prison, and all the soldiers under him were killed, and even with myself, I had fallen into such a situation.
But as soon as one of them rushes up, he kills one, and when two of them rush up, he kills both.
In short, as long as he kills one more, he will be able to earn one more, and that's it.
In a few moments, the corpses of horses, and human corpses, gradually piled up into a terrible hill, and he, Cao Yan, straightened up, and stood on this hill with a proud face, as if it were a throne that belonged to him alone.
At the moment, he was covered in blood, full of wounds of flesh and skin turned out, the original sharp sword, had been broken, at this time, he was actually just holding the captured enemy's knife and waving it indiscriminately, because of excessive blood loss, his vision had begun to gradually blur, and he was only able to barely stand up by relying on the spear behind his back that had been inserted in the pile of corpses.
He's still shouting.
"Come again, come again!"
Reduced to this, with one enemy and hundreds, he still killed dozens of people, such a fierce general, it is simply rare in the world!
Hu Yanshi got off the horse, came slowly from a distance, looked at Cao Yan who was covered in blood at a high place, and couldn't help but ask in a deep voice: "Boy, who are you?"
Although Cao Yan had signed up for himself in front of the battle, Hu Yanshi was far away at that time, but he didn't hear it clearly.
Cao Yanzhu stood with a knife, looked at the people surrounding him, and said with a miserable smile: "It's really fate, I couldn't kill you at the beginning, but today I will be killed by you!"
When Hu Yanshi heard this, he immediately frowned and said: "Why are you so hard? You still have a great future, as long as you are willing to put down your sword today and submit to my David, I guarantee that your future achievements will be limitless!"
Cao Yan opened his mouth and spit out a mouthful of blood, and said provocatively: "If you and I exchange, I want you to surrender to me Da Liang, are you willing?"
Hu Yanshi shook his head, understood what the other party meant, could only sigh, and said helplessly: "Actually, I don't want to kill you, and what about yourself, you are still so young, are you willing to die like this? Just for a country that is about to perish?"
"Let's come on. Cao Yan wiped the blood on his face, held the knife in both hands again, faced the people who came up around him alone, and said calmly, "It's useless to talk more." ”
Hu Yanshi lowered his head and raised his hand high, but he was reluctant to put it down.
Because of such a young man, he really didn't want to kill.
But when the two countries are at war, who can tell whether it is right or wrong?
Cao Yan, who was standing on the pile of corpses, blinked his eyes slightly, trying to see more clearly, he was panting, his body was shaking, and he looked pitiful, like a drowning child.
He looked at the blue sky in the distance, and his expression was extremely calm.
Before he died, he just had some regrets.
How many more can you kill?
Maybe not one of them.
I haven't been able to sit on the position of general yet.
I haven't been able to fight that peer yet.
I haven't been able to see the sea yet, and I heard about the beauty of Haizhou's scenery, which makes people forget to return.
As long as you can climb over that mountain, there is a better scenery behind it, but you can't see it.
Cao Yan, Cao Yan, you still have to die of your arrogance.
He hung his head, a little frustrated.
But after waiting for a long time, the expected rush forward, and the scene of chopping himself into minced meat did not appear.
He looked up in confusion, the voice in his ears was too noisy, and it seemed as if there was a thunder god in his head who was angry, roaring so loudly that he couldn't hear anything clearly.
But he saw it clearly, really clearly, so clearly that he even thought it was his own hallucination.
The earth shook, and his feet softened, and he sat down.
He held the knife, raised his head, opened his mouth, and the fresh air rushed in, and he was laughing, laughing presumptuously.
"Hahaha, hahahaha!"
In the distance, a big flag fluttered in the wind, and the word "Xuan" was written like a dragon.
