Chapter 122: Ambush
Seeing this situation, Gao Shun, Zhao Yun, Zhen Yan and others changed their faces greatly.
Zhen Mi in the carriage lifted the curtain and said nervously,
"Husband, how is this good?"
"If you come, you will be safe. Don't be afraid. ”
Hua Xiong smiled faintly and ordered the convoy to stop moving forward and stand in place waiting for Yuan Shao and them to chase after him.
If Yuan Shao really planned to tear his face, then he wouldn't be polite.
"Appeal ......"
Yuan Shao stopped the horse under him, and said with a gloomy face,
"Master Taishi, you left Yecheng in such a hurry, and you didn't say hello to the lower officials."
"I'm afraid that Yuan Gong is busy with affairs, so it's inconvenient to disturb Yuan Gong."
Hua Xiong smiled lightly.
"Enough! No more nonsense! Yuan Shao said viciously, "Hand over Gongsun Zhan's subordinate named Zhao Yun to me!" ”
He asked Fu Zhu to send someone to check on the situation, and unexpectedly found Yuan Xi's body at Zhen's house.
His son was killed for no reason, and Yuan Shao immediately burst into a rage.
Through several dismissed members of the Zhen family, he learned that it was Zhao Yun brought by Huaxiong to do it, and immediately ordered all the men and horses to chase after him.
"I ordered Zhao Yun to protect my wife, and Yuan Xi just brought about his own destruction."
Hua Xiong said lightly.
"Do you have to defend him?"
"That's right."
Hua Xiong nodded.
Yuan Shao's chest fell together, his expression was hideous and distorted, and he seemed to be ready to command his subordinates to charge at any time.
Zhao Yun, Gao Shun and others also nervously held their weapons.
A big war could break out at any moment!
However, Yuan Shao took a deep breath and snorted coldly,
"Okay, I've made a note of this!"
He picked up the whip, whipped his mount's buttocks hard, and turned away.
Yuan Shao's army came and went quickly.
Soon it receded like a tide.
This made Gao Shun and the others a little confused.
"Lord, why did Yuan Shao leave like this?"
Gao Shun asked puzzled.
"I'm the imperial court, and Yuan Shao is afraid of his reputation, and he doesn't want to make a big splash. But our next journey will definitely be full of dangers. ”
Hua Xiong's face was serious,
"Let's go, cheer me up."
"Yes!"
Everyone said yes in unison and set out on the journey again.
Yecheng.
Yuan Tan, Yuan Shang and others were waiting at the gate of the city, and they were all stunned when they saw Yuan Shao leading the men and horses back.
"Father, where's Hua Xiong's dog thief?"
Yuan Tan couldn't help but ask.
"He's gone!"
Yuan Shao said angrily.
"He killed his second brother and let him go like this?"
Yuan Tan asked with a look of astonishment.
It's not that he has a deep brotherhood with Yuan Xi, but that he simply can't get used to seeing Hua Xiong and pee on their Yuan family's head.
"What if you don't let him go?" Yuan Shao said coldly, "You can't let me kill Hua Xiong in front of the world." ”
Yuan Tan and Yuan Shang both looked unwilling.
"Don't worry, two sons."
Frustrated on the side, he smiled,
"The lord has already arranged another army for them to pretend to be bandits and ambush Huaxiong on the way."
"But Hua Xiong has that terrifying chariot in his hands, can this work?"
Thinking of the tiger tank summoned by Hua Xiong last time, Yuan Shang was afraid.
"I have already observed, Hua Xiong came to Yecheng this time, and he did not see the shadow of the chariot, presumably he has returned to Luoyang."
Yuan Shao analyzed.
"And this time we also invited a spear master Tong Yuan, who will be foolproof."
He said with a smile.
"But that Tong Yuan, who is known as the Penglai Spear God?"
Yuan Tan said movingly.
"Not bad."
"If there is such a master, then Hua Xiong will definitely be in trouble."
Yuan Shao and the others couldn't help laughing.
……
Hua Xiong and the others hurried all the way along the way.
Such a rapid march is nothing to elite soldiers such as Gao Shun and Zhao Yun.
But the pampered Zhen family can't stand it.
In desperation, Huaxiong had to choose a place to set up camp.
But before they could light a fire and cook, Zhao Yun, who was in charge of guarding, shouted loudly.
"Enemy attack!"
"Enemy attack!"
Gao Shun immediately commanded his soldiers and began to prepare to meet them.
The Zhen family became flustered.
"Daughter, we'll be fine, right?"
Zhen's mother asked nervously.
"Mother, don't worry, with Master Taishi here, it will be fine."
Zhen Mi said and looked at Hua Xiong, who was checking the battlefield, his eyes were full of admiration.
Hua Xiong stood on a high place, looking down at the enemy in the distance.
The location of the camp this time was jointly determined by Gao Shun and Zhao Yun.
It is located in a raised mountain pack surrounded by cliffs that cannot be climbed.
And if you want to attack the top of the mountain, there is only one path, which can be said to be unclear.
"Lord, something is wrong."
After Gao Shun observed the situation for a while, he said solemnly.
Needless to say, Hua Xiong could also see that something was wrong.
The people who came out on the opposite side, although they were all dressed ordinarily, looked no different from the bandits.
But the steel knife in their hands, as well as the well-trained cooperation, knew at a glance that they were not ordinary people.
"This should be the person sent by Yuan Shao to hunt down and kill us."
Hua Xiong is definitely authentic.
While they were talking, the two sides had already begun a hand-to-hand handover.
Because most of the white horse servants were cavalry, they were guarded by the soldiers of the wolf army.
Although the soldiers sent by Yuan Shao are all elite, compared to the wolf army, it is still not enough.
As soon as he made contact, he was killed by the wolf army.
Even their charge was counter-fought.
The two sides fought together, but it didn't take long for the other side to retreat, leaving behind hundreds of corpses.
Seeing such a battle situation, the Zhen family couldn't help but shout excitedly.
But Hua Xiong, Gao Shun, and Zhao Yun were solemn and not at all.
They all knew that this was only the first tentative attack of the enemy.
Sure enough, after the enemy had rested for a while, the second wave of attacks came.
This time they sent heavily armed soldiers to rush to the front.
These heavily armed soldiers, wearing thick armor and holding heavy shields in their hands.
They lined up side by side, followed by the other soldiers.
The enemy's goal is clear, that is, to break through Huaxiong's defense line in one fell swoop with the help of the strength of the heavily armed soldiers.
Looking at those airtight armors, Gao Shun and Zhao Yun gasped.
If it is in a normal environment, it is very easy to eliminate these slow hoplites.
But in today's narrow battlefield, these heavily armed soldiers can play a huge role.
The soldiers on both sides soon began to hand over in hand.
Sure enough, as Gao Shun and Zhao Yun were worried about, the hoplites were at the front.
The weapons of the wolf soldiers slashed at them, making a clanging sound that could not hurt them in the slightest.
And the enemy's soldiers took the opportunity to press forward.
The situation suddenly became unfavorable.
How good is that?
Gao Shun and Zhao Yun looked at Hua Xiong nervously.
