Chapter 370: Falling short
This move changed extremely quickly, forcing Gan Ning to be in a hurry, hurriedly holding the knife and dodging to the side.
Zhang Liao struck a desperate blow, did not fight with him at all, and the horse moved forward to kill, at this time Hou Cheng then responded, stopping Gan Ning from fighting.
Zhuge Liang's deployment of the Chinese army is very peculiar, surrounded by a long trench and stone wall, mixed with the mound of arrow towers, deployed layer by layer, the closer to the inner side, the denser it is.
If you look at it from the air, the middle of the whole camp looks like a bagua, and those stone walls and ditches are arranged according to yin and yang, layer by layer, like a labyrinth.
Zhang Liao didn't know the mystery, he only cared about urging the horse forward, braving the rain of arrows to move forward, he was already anxious, and the mount was also a little difficult at this time, so he had to go around the two stone walls, and when he looked up again, his face suddenly changed greatly.
Obviously, he had only walked more than ten steps, but suddenly he was five hundred steps away from Zhuge Liang, and the soldiers who had fallen into the camp were also scattered behind the stone walls of various trenches, unable to meet.
Just when he was frightened, Chen Zhi led the troops to kill, and the Bai Yu soldiers waited for a long time, rushed forward to fight against the trapped camp, and killed the other party without the power to fight back.
Chen Zhi urged the horse to kill, and stabbed the spear straight to Zhang Liao's chest, Zhang Liao parried with a horizontal knife, but he didn't want this shot to imply a move, even the stabbing and picking, although he was holding it, he used the power of the rebound to pick it up to the brain.
After all, Zhang Fei is a veteran who has been on the battlefield for a long time, and at this time the fight is in full swing, the muscles of the whole body are tense, and he subconsciously turns his head to dodge, and narrowly avoids the tip of the gun.
With a soft sound, the helmet was swept by the head of the spear and tilted to the side, Zhang Liao also felt a tingling scalp, and he didn't want this person's martial arts to be under Gan Ning.
He and Jia Xu discussed, thinking that the rest of the generals of the Jingzhou army should not be afraid of leading the father and son of Zhang Yu, as long as they get rid of Zhuge Liang with the momentum of thunder, they can take advantage of the chaos of the enemy army to retreat.
Unexpectedly, Gan Ning and Chen Zhi were as strong in martial arts, not only were they on par with themselves, but the Chinese army could not break through.
Seeing the failure of a surprise attack and seeing that there were many talents in the Jingzhou army, Zhang Liao inexplicably felt a sense of frustration and powerlessness, which was very similar to when he was in Baimenlou.
Thinking together, the combat power was greatly reduced in an instant, and Chen Zhi hit the shoulder guard with a shot, and half of the armor flew into the air, hurriedly concentrating on the kill.
Hou Cheng came from behind and shouted, "Wen Yuan go quickly, I'll break the queen!" ”
"Father, retreat!" Zhang Hu was shocked and hurriedly led troops to stop Chen Dao.
Zhang Liao's eyes were resolute, and he said in a deep voice: "If you don't kill Zhuge Liang, you must not retreat!" ”
Hou Cheng yelled: "Xuchang can't live without you, focus on the overall situation, go quickly!" ”
Zhang Liao was shocked, and suddenly realized that he was the commander of the three armies, and if he died here, the Cao army would be completely defeated, Guan Yu would kill Xuchang in one fell swoop, and the Central Plains would fall, and all of them would be lost.
Thinking of this, he yelled, forced Chen Dao to retreat, and took Zhang Hu and more than a dozen personal soldiers to break through the siege, while Hou Cheng beckoned the soldiers in the camp and stopped the pursuers.
Gan Ning killed the besieged Cao army, saw Zhang Liao walking north, led his troops to chase after him, and shouted: "Zhang Liao is leaving!" ”
A garrison lieutenant risked his life to attack, swooped out from behind the stone wall, and stabbed Zhang Liao with a single shot, if he could kill this man, he would be enough to be promoted to general.
Out of the corner of Zhang Liao's eyes, he saw that the cold light was approaching, he blocked it with a horizontal knife, the tip of the gun grazed his chest, grabbed the head of the gun with his backhand, and dragged the man out.
Before he could react, Zhang Liao slammed the spear back, only to hear a muffled sound of flesh and bones, and the handle of the gun was inserted into the man's abdomen, and he fell to the ground screaming.
"Zhang Liao, you can't escape today!" Gan Ning led the troops to kill from the side and rushed straight over.
At this time, Zhang Liao had withdrawn from those trenches and stone walls, and was about to fight with Gan Ning, but Zhang Hu rushed over with a knife and shouted: "Father, go quickly!" ”
"Huzi-" Zhang Liao hissed loudly, his eyes red, but he still resolutely beat his horse and galloped wildly, killing the enemy troops who were surrounded in front of him.
Gan Ning saw that a young general came to stop him, but it was Zhang Liao's son, and said angrily: "Sure enough, the father and son soldiers are in battle!" ”
was about to kill Zhang Hu to chase Zhang Liao, when he suddenly caught a glimpse of the dust in the distance, a team of people and horses arrived again, and when he was about to give an early warning, he saw a red horse and a green robe in front of him, and he breathed a sigh of relief.
Seeing that it was Guan Yu who came back to help, Gan Ning knew that the crisis was over, the situation was under control, and he no longer chased Zhang Liao.
Raising his knife and pointing at Zhang Hu, he smiled and said, "Turtle son, still don't surrender?" ”
"You're the turtle bastard!" Zhang Hu thought that Gan Ning was scolding his father and son, so he was furious and urged the horse to dance the knife and rush over.
"Leave it to me, little baby, clean up those miscellaneous fish!"
Gan Ning and Zhang Hu fought, and the Jinfan army swarmed up and surrounded the remnants of the trapped soldiers.
Zhang Liao broke through with dozens of personal soldiers, and when he saw Guan Yu returning to the camp, he couldn't help but be shocked, and urged the horse to gallop from the oblique thorn, jumped out of the camp, and fled north.
As soon as Guan Yu arrived at the gate of the camp, he saw the drums in the camp and was about to inquire about the situation, when he turned his head and saw Zhang Liao killing, Danfeng's eyes widened, and he turned his horse's head to chase after him.
Guan Ping was taken aback, and hurriedly beckoned Zhou Cang: "Hurry up!" ”
Guan Yu's red rabbit horse was extremely fast, like a ball of flame rolling forward, and in a blink of an eye, he caught up with Cao Jun and slashed the two of them with a knife.
These trapped soldiers have been together for many years, and they have a tacit understanding, and immediately four people separated, two of them stepped forward to intercept Guan Yu, and two of them released arrows in the distance.
Guan Yu slashed the two with a knife, but he was hit by an arrow in his arm, he was angry, and rushed forward with a roar, and split the Cao Jun who released the arrow in half.
The other person fled in panic, Guan Yu ignored it anymore, continued to chase Zhang Liao, and divided four people into the camp, using all kinds of means to intercept desperately.
After killing more than ten people in succession, Zhang Liao had retreated to Wushui, and the Cao army in front had already held the riverbank, repaired the original camp, and built a pontoon bridge to connect Hebei, and Zhu Ling led the troops to respond at the camp gate.
Zhang Liao retreated to the front of the battle, turned his horse's head and saw Guan Yu chasing after him, blood stained his red armor, his broken robe flew in the wind, and Cao's army was in a commotion, and they all opened their bows and arrows.
Guan Yu stepped forward to restrain the war horse, stroked his beard and shouted: "Zhang Wenyuan, in vain Guan Yu respects you as a hero, and actually treats a certain person as a Jiangdong rat?" ”
Although Zhang Liao was frustrated in his heart, he still laughed and said: "Becoming a king and defeating a villain, but I hate Zhuge Liang's tricks and falling short, otherwise the prince will help me become famous!" ”
Guan Yu was furious, urging the horse to rush over, and the arrows fired in front of Cao's camp, so he had to turn the horse to the side to avoid it, and returned to the place in a circle, and the hair was flying.
Zhang Liao also sneered: "Gong thinks that a certain person is Yan Liang's husband? ”
Guan Yu saw that Cao's army was in a neat formation, and he was helpless for a while, Guan Ping and Zhou Cang led the troops to chase back, and stroked his beard and said, "Do you dare to fight with a certain one?" ”
Zhang Liao hugged his fists and said: "The prince used Kong Ming's strategy to take Mopi, don't you know that there are wise men in our army?" This time, the plan will be calculated, each has its own victory and defeat, why not retire early and be safe? ”
Guan Yu stroked his beard and sneered: "A certain stepbrother's ambition to help the Han family, how can the rebel not be eliminated, how can he withdraw from the army?" Why did Wen Yuan help the abuse, obsessive? ”
Zhang Liao hugged his fists and said: "The merits have their own posterity comments, you and I are our own masters, regardless of the old feelings, please go back!" ”
