Chapter Twenty-Six: The Sandpiper and the Clam Fight
Zhang Ning rode a horse and galloped in front, Zhuang Shaoyou led the cavalry battalion to chase in the rear, and the soldiers of the Yellow Turban Army hurriedly retreated along the way. As soon as he arrived at the door of the big tent, Zhang Ning jumped impatiently from the high-speed galloping horse and rushed in.
Zhuang Shaoyou's equestrian skills were not as good as Zhang Ning's, and he naturally moved a little slower, but Zhuang Shaoyou did not go in immediately after stationing on the horse, but arranged for the cavalry battalion to pay attention to vigilance, be ready for battle at any time, and pay attention to the movements of Zhang Yanyan's troops, and then rushed into the tent with Zhou Cang.
In Zhang Jiao's big tent, Zhang Ning hugged Zhang Jiao's corpse and cried like pear blossoms and rain, which made Zhuang Shaoyou's heart distressed for a while, but he didn't know how to persuade him
"Mei Niang, the situation is urgent, we have to get out of here quickly, it's too late!"
"I'm not leaving, I'm going to go, you're leaving!" Zhang Ning said angrily while crying, he had lost his mind.
Zhuang Shaoyou was about to repeat his old trick to knock her unconscious, but it was a pity that Zhang Ning suffered a loss and was on guard, so he avoided Zhuang Shaoyou very flexibly, and scolded: "You bastard, what are you going to do!" ”
Zhuang Shaoyou turned his heart sideways, hugged her, and kissed Zhang Ning's cherry lips with a very domineering mouth, Zhang Ning struggled while crying, but gradually calmed down, and the crying was much quieter.
At this moment, there was a shouting sound outside the tent, Zhuang Shaoyou was startled, sighed and said to himself: "It's still a step late, hey, I'm afraid it's difficult to be good today." Then he picked up Zhang Ning and walked out of the tent.
Outside the big tent, Zhang Yan took his own soldiers and 20,000 troops from his descendants to surround the big tent and confront the cavalry battalion. Zhuang Shaoyou came out and put Zhang Ning down, Zhang Ning was surprisingly not impulsive, the three of them quickly jumped on the war horse, and then came to the place where the two sides confronted.
When Zhang Ning saw Zhang Yan, he remembered that he had lied to himself just now, and now he had brought people to kill each other, so he couldn't help but be furious: "Zhang Yan, my father just died, do you want us to kill each other?" Quickly retreat! ”
"Mei Niang, don't be deceived by Zhuang Shaoyou's villain, General Tiangong is dead, Zhuang Shaoyou wants to support the army to rebel and betray the Yellow Turban Army, I am here to exterminate him, I and Zhuang Shaoyou are incompatible! It's not about you! Get out of the way! Zhang Yan continued to talk nonsense
Zhuang Shaoyou was also very annoyed, and couldn't help but mock Zhang Yan: "General Tiangong is newly dead, the Yellow Turban Army is unstable, Zhang Liang and Zhang Bao have been plotting against them, you are secretly in contact with them, do you think I don't know?" The soldiers and horses of the official army Zuo Lang and the emperor Fu Song are eighty miles away from here, and the cavalry can gallop in two or three hours to arrive, and you people still have to fight for power and profit here, killing each other, stupid and stupid! ”
Zhang Yan was shocked when she heard what Zhuang Shaoyou said, Huangfu Song is here? Aren't the officers and soldiers in Quliang City? But then he calmed down and said: "Zhuang Shaoyou, you Yellow Turban Army, trying to rebel, will definitely kill you today to repay the spirit of the Heavenly Gong General in the sky!" Everyone obey the order, give me all my strength to exterminate the rebels of the cavalry battalion, we still have time, it is not too late to destroy them before leaving! ”
Zhang Ning was anxious when he saw this, he really didn't want to see his father's army killing each other, so he shouted: "You are all disciples of General Tiangong, I am his daughter, I can prove Zhuang Shaoyou's innocence, don't be deceived by Zhang Yan, this villain, hurry up and prepare to deal with the official army, don't kill each other here!" ”
Zhang Jiao's personal soldiers immediately stopped attacking when they heard Zhang Ning's words, and slowly retreated to the side, but Zhang Yan's descendants didn't care, they were only loyal to Zhang Yan, and they would fight whoever Zhang Yan asked them to.
Seeing this, Zhuang Shaoyou immediately ordered the cavalry battalion: "All the cavalry battalions obey the order, aim at Zhang Yan, and shoot at full speed!" "The two sides were already tense, their weapons and bows and arrows were in their hands, and as soon as they spoke from above, they immediately started fighting from below.
"Whoosh!" Bursts of arrow rain roared towards the direction where Zhang Yan was, Zhang Yan's 20,000 Yellow Turban Army are all elite Yellow Turban Warriors, but the single type of troops, coupled with the Yellow Turban Army's extreme lack of arrows, the general army is simply unable to be equipped with bows and arrows on a large scale, and there is no capital for training, so the tactics of the Yellow Turban Army are the tactics of crowd encirclement, and there is no coordination of archers.
A rain of arrows from the cavalry battalion, where Zhang Yan was killed, was killed and wounded, Zhang Yan dismounted and escaped, but the horse was shot to death.
Zhuang Shaoyou looked at the empty space and shouted: "The cavalry battalion will raise the bow and arrow, and the arrow formation will charge with me!" After speaking, they took the lead towards the place where Zhang Yan was, and Zhou Cang and Qin Ling followed closely with a team of 100 people, forming an arrow formation, fiercely stabbing at Zhang Yan's army, which was already scattered, and the 100 cavalry in the rear were also whistling to follow up the assault.
Zhang Ning did not charge together, but slapped her horse and galloped towards Zhang Jiao's own soldiers, and no one stopped her on the way.
Zhang Yanjun saw that Zhang Yan was in danger, and immediately rushed to the rescue, Zhuang Shaoyou mercilessly swung his sword and killed several Zhang Yanjun, and saw Zhang Yan not far away, at this time Zhang Yan did not use a sword, but held a pure steel gun to Zhuang Shaoyou angrily, Zhuang Shaoyou saw this and rushed towards Zhang Yan without hesitation, capture the thief and capture the king first, as long as Zhang Yan is killed, the rest of the soldiers will be scattered!
Zhou Cang and Qin Ling hurriedly followed, protecting his wings and his rear flanks. Zhuang Shaoyou's heart is cold and decisive, anyone who stands in my way is an enemy! No mercy! The most intolerable thing on the battlefield is emotionality. The so-called mercy is not in charge of the army, righteousness does not accumulate wealth, and the main general is a ruthless executioner on the battlefield, decisively killing, and decisively giving up.
Zhang Yanjun seemed to feel Zhuang Shaoyou's indomitable momentum, coupled with the formation that was disturbed by the rain of arrows before, as well as the assault of the well-trained cavalry battalion, there were some signs of collapse for a while, 20,000 people besieged the powerful cavalry, but most of them could not participate in the battle, but they just kept filling the gap after the death of the soldiers in front, and could not effectively play the numerical advantage.
After Zhuang Shaoyou killed several people, he finally arrived at the place where Zhang Yan was, and the surrounding soldiers no longer had the courage to resist, but they still refused to retreat, and only a few guards desperately protected Zhang Yan.
Zhuang Shaoyou Jianfeng pointed directly at Zhang Yan and said, "Zhang Yan'er, dare to fight with me?" ”
Zhang Yan was furious when she heard this, although she suffered some losses in the school field just now, but she was in the same place, Zhuang Shaoyou had the help of horse speed, so she didn't think that she couldn't beat Zhuang Shaoyou.
What's more, in this case, Rong had to fight, otherwise he would have no face to lead the soldiers, and even the soldiers would collapse on the spot, so Zhang Yan immediately responded: "Why don't you dare, Zhuang Shaoyou, see that I will take your dog's life today!" ”
Zhang Ning looked at this anxiously on the side, very sad, how could he get to this point today? In fact, she doesn't know that everything is because of her, this is the so-called red face and trouble.
Zhuang Shaoyou dismounted, he didn't care whether he was handsome or not, he held a sword in each hand and pointed directly at Zhang Yan, Zhang Yan also held a gun with both hands and put on a good posture, Zhang Yanjun who was besieging the cavalry battalion stopped, and gradually scattered around it, and the cavalry battalion did not pursue, gathered behind Zhuang Shaoyou, and began to bandage the wounds.
At this time, it was noon, and the sun was still shining strongly on the earth after autumn, and the soldiers on the ground were a little irritable.
Zhuang Shaoyou calmed down his emotions, seriously understood the artistic conception of Tai Chi swordsmanship, and issued a Xuanwu style to prepare for the opportunity, waiting for the opportunity to move, and testing Zhang Yan's offensive routine.
Zhang Yan was angry when he saw Zhuang Shaoyou, and it was difficult to calm down, so he immediately held the gun in both hands and slammed a fierce spiral stab towards Zhuang Shaoyou, trying to hit him hard with one blow.
Zhuang Shaoyou calmly stared at the head of the spear, and issued the Xuanwu style that had just gathered momentum, his body deviated sideways, and at the same time a sword hit the arrow; Zhang Yan's blow just now seems to send out full strength, but it is left with five points of potential, if one blow can be killed, then all of them will be released, if it can't be killed, it can still recover five points of force, so that one blow will not be the same as no defensive power, but this kind of gun control technology requires high skill and proficiency, that is to say, Zhang Yan's marksmanship has reached a very high level, and he can dance with ease.
Zhang Yan hit no, it was another blow to collect the gun and return to the momentum and another blow, Zhuang Shaoyou's luck was blocked, the so-called one inch long and one inch strong, one inch short and one inch dangerous, Zhang Yan's spear naturally had a great advantage, Zhang Yan had more than ten shots here in a row, Zhuang Shaoyou blocked more than ten shots, and none of the swords were actively attacked. On the scene, it seems that Zhang Yan is pressing Zhuang Shaoyou to fight, Zhang Yanjun is cheering and shaking, the cavalry battalion is serious face, Zhang Ning is nervously clenching his fists on the side, his brows are furrowed, he looks very cute and cute, and he is pitiful.
Zhuang Shaoyou's face was expressionless, constantly parrying, always in the Xuanwu style, no change of moves, Zhang Yan seemed to have the upper hand, but he couldn't attack for a long time, he was very anxious, and he was not calm because of Zhang Ning's affairs, so he kept adventuring, and kept trying to pierce Zhuang Shaoyou with a shot to relieve the hatred in his heart.
Zhuang Shaoyou struck Zhang Yan's spear with another sword, Zhang Yan retracted his strength, did not attack again, stopped, gasped slightly, and shouted angrily: "Zhuang Shaoyou, are you a man?" Have the courage to challenge but don't have the courage to fight with me, what kind of hero is he who has been hiding from me? ”
Zhuang Shaoyou smiled slightly, he simply parried just now, but the consumption was smaller than Zhang Yan, Zhang Yan is now a little short of strength, his breath is no longer stable, and his mood is more impatient, while Zhuang Shaoyou has already figured out Zhang Yan's routine, and there is no need to test it anymore.
Lang Sheng responded: "Why don't you dare! Come on! After speaking, he held the sword in both hands, looked directly at the tip of Zhang Yan's spear, and charged towards Zhang Yan, waving the same green dragon attack with both hands, and the Qiankun Sun and Moon Sword rushed towards Zhang Yan like a pair of dragons.
Zhang Yan didn't expect Zhuang Shaoyou to change his style just now, but instead launched an active attack on himself? He hadn't rested completely, but he couldn't allow himself to retreat, so he held the spear and used all his strength to use a spiral spike to collide with Zhuang Shaoyou's two green dragons, and a crisp metal clash sound mixed with a trace of bitter smell resounded all around, and the surrounding soldiers were shocked to the point that their ears hurt.
With this blow, Zhuang Shaoyou took five steps back before he froze, and a trace of blood oozed from the corner of his mouth; Zhang Yan took three steps back and forcibly held on, her chest and blood churning, but she forcibly pressed it down, and both of them looked at each other with some gasp. Zhang Yanxin burst with joy: Sure enough, it's not my opponent!
Zhuang Shaoyou's face was expressionless, but he was secretly happy, he vomited some blood to minimize the injury, Zhang Yan forcibly suppressed the face is good-looking, but in fact, he has suffered a big loss, and he has already done it internally.
So Zhuang Shaoyou took the lead in attacking again, unconsciously raising the sword with both hands, feeling the blazing sun at noon, and a feeling of enlightenment suddenly rose in his heart.
The killing just now also aroused the blood of the heart, and the scenes of the past continued to open, the blood-like remnant sun on the bank of the Qing River in Guangzong for the first time, the dark red river, and the hideous section were often broken into two; The scene of the pile-up of corpses in the second battle of Gwangjong Qinghe, the afterglow of the setting sun sprinkled on the messy battlefield.
A burst of tragedy and a sense of vastness came to his heart, and the double swords slashed towards Zhang Yan, Zhang Yan felt a blur, and a tragic sense of fighting with thousands of troops and horses came to his face, Zhang Yan didn't have time to retreat, and tried his best to raise the steel gun with both hands to parry, and it was "Ding!" There was a loud bang, which shook the ears of everyone around.
No one saw what happened just now, only to see that Zhang Yan was still holding the steel gun and was shot away for more than ten steps, and fell to the ground, the steel gun had been bent, fortunately it was made of pure steel, otherwise it would definitely not be able to resist, Zhang Yan oozed a bloodshot between his eyebrows, his eyes were no longer the same as just now, and his hands had to forcibly support his body, but he couldn't get up, so he had to lie on the ground, looking at Zhuang Shaoyou unwillingly.
Tai Chi Swordsmanship - Suzaku Pose!!
There was silence all around. Zhuang Shaoyou glanced at Zhang Yan, withdrew the sword from its scabbard, gasped a few times, spit out a mouthful of blood, Qin Ling and Zhou Cang behind hurriedly stepped forward to support him, and Zhang Yan's personal guards also hurriedly stepped forward to support him.
Zhang Ning also squeezed away everyone and rushed up to see Zhuang Shaoyou.
"I'm fine, help me get on my horse, we need to get out of here."
After Zhuang Shaoyou got on the horse, he still took the lead and walked in the direction outside the camp, and the soldiers of Zhang Yanjun on the road were a little hesitant, not daring to give way, and not daring to fight hard, just carefully blocking the way.
Zhuang Shaoyou frowned and said, "Are you still planning to kill each other?" In a while, a lot of people will come here, and if they stay here, everyone will die without a place to bury!
"You're right, what a hero! The judgment of the situation is accurate! Admire, admire! A young man's somewhat gloomy voice came, which made people think that he was a treacherous figure at first hearing.
