Chapter 37: Snow Attack

In the morning of the northern country, the winter snow is fluttering and the cold wind is biting.

In the cold tent, under the cold felt, the camp fire will be extinguished, and the soldiers of the Wei army hug together, using each other's body temperature to keep warm. In such weather, the air is frosty, the inkstone ice is condensed, and the iron clothes are difficult, except for rest and sleep, I really don't know what else can consume such a morning.

The fierce battle in the past few days has long exhausted their physical strength, and this snow has made them feel at ease, with this snow, the Ji Han guest army is not in a good position, maybe it will retreat.

People who are sleeping have completely lost their usual alertness. Suddenly, a small voice came from a distance. Someone woke up and asked, "Did you hear anything?" "Nope." One soldier replied. "All I heard was Big Fat snoring, like thunder." Another soldier replied. "It's just that in this kind of weather, rabbits don't come out of the nest. What sound do you hear? Hell yes. But as soon as the words fell, he himself was stunned. In the distance, there was a low rumbling sound, like thunder rolling across the sky, like a torrent rushing under the ice, and in the blink of an eye, even the dullest person could feel the ground shaking slightly, and the snow particles in the cracks in the tent were shaken and falling!

"This is ......" Finally, a sentry opened the heavy felt curtain, and a cold wind blew, making him shiver involuntarily, he rubbed his eyes and looked out, and the next moment, he was stunned!

Enemy attack! Enemy attack! A terrible cry tore through the silence of the spring snowy morning.

On the white horizon, a burning line of fire poured out of the flat space, and this line of fire burned and spread at an astonishing speed, burning into a sea of fire on the earth. The Han won the world with fire, and the fire was red, which was the red of the Han Dynasty. That's the color of the Han army! While the Wei soldiers were still stunned, the experienced veteran had already screamed: "Iron Cavalry! The Iron Horseman's cavalry! ”

Countless cavalry rumbled unstoppably along the frozen and hard earth, and the uniforms of thousands of cavalry were as red as if they were stained with blood, as if a dazzling stream of blood was rolling in, and the shocking scene could not be imagined unless they saw it with their own eyes. "Prepare for war! Meet the enemy! The Wei army shouted, panicking to grab the cold iron cloak, and there was a commotion in the tent, like a group of panicked rats wrapped under a cloth bag. It's too late! Under the light of snow. The iron cavalry rushed to the camp gate, and their very skillful horses jumped over the trench, picked off the horses, knocked down the camp gate, and rushed into the camp like a flood, destroying and decaying along the way, and there was no enemy to resist.

"The Han army is here! The Han army is coming! ”

"Brothers, take the guys and hold it!"

"Where's my clothes? Who stole my clothes? ”

"Stomp me to death! Stampede to death! ”

"God, save me!"

The unprepared Wei army was thrown into disarray by the surprise attack, and many people were slashed and killed unarmed. The Wei army, which had finally found a weapon, was chopped down by a sharp saber before it came out of the tent, and under the torrent of this iron horse, a small-scale blockade could not even splash a wave. The faces of the Wei generals were as pale as snow: none of them expected that the Han army would attack on such a snowy day, and due to the few days of fighting with the Han army led by Guan Feng, the Wei army's physical strength and energy were exhausted to the lowest point. No matter how prepared I am now, I am afraid that I will not be able to resist this tide of enemy troops.

The impact of Li Pleia's iron cavalry was like a hurricane, and the scimitar in the hands of the warriors waved like a snow-capped mountain avalanche, and under this storm-like slashing, the Wei army, which had finally been assembled, was cut to pieces before they could form a formation. The rumbling hooves overwhelmed the weak resistance, and many Wei troops had no time to escape, so they surrendered on their knees, and were captured by the Han army that rushed behind the iron cavalry.

Li Yu didn't pay any attention to these at all, he only ordered to charge forward, charge again, and charge again, all the way to the Chinese army of the Wei army. The endgame is left to the rear team to clean up, what he wants is to defeat the Chinese army of the Wei army and break the will of the Wei army. Let the Wei army really collapse.

Although it took a while to kill the Chinese army from the front army, Li Yu came too quickly, and the assault of the iron cavalry was like water, without any pause. And since the Chinese army, due to its position in the rear, slept more soundly than the front army, they did not expect that the enemy would be able to break through the front army and rush over.

The Han army shouted: "Kill! Kill! Kill! The scimitar was raised high, and the sound of wild shouts shook the sky. Like wolves, they jumped into the Wei camp with an indomitable momentum, and countless scimitars were like snow waves. Pounce on those wearing only underwear. The Wei soldiers, with their hands empty, flashed with their swords. The blood flowed like a river, and the heads and broken limbs flew all over the sky, plunging the entire Wei camp into a terrible wail. Countless tents were pulled down, and the soldiers were trampled into pulp before they had time to crawl out.

Due to the high level of mental tension in recent days, Wang Xiong, the assassin of Youzhou, slept soundly this night, and did not hear the sound of the tide outside. The guards who rushed in poured a basin of cold water with ice ballast on his face, Wang Xiong almost held his breath, and before he could react, the guards rushed up, wearing clothes and belts, helmets and battle robes, and fled with him. Wang Xiong shouted angrily: "What are you doing? Put me down! Want to rebel or not? ”

At this time, there was chaos in the camp, like the rolling waves, and Wang Xiong's voice was completely muffled. The guards helped Wang Xiong onto his horse and escorted him out. The front foot rushed out of the camp, and the entire camp was already broken by Ji Han. Only then did Wang Xiong understand what was going on, but his face turned pale with fright, and his soul was not possessed.

Wang Xiong and his guards ran wildly, his face was splashed with water, the cold wind blew, his eyebrows and beard were all frozen into ice cubes, and the cheekbones were torn and painful, which was due to the frostbite of his skin. But he didn't have time to care about this, the most important thing at the moment was to escape, escape, flee all the way south, and never stop at all. They rushed through the scattered and fleeing soldiers, and some of the guards slashed to death the soldiers who blocked the way, but they did not dare to stay or turn back, they knew that the Han army was chasing behind. As long as you stop, you can't escape. But Wang Xiong's heart was like ashes at this time, and he was at a loss. He was actually defeated like this, tens of thousands of troops were destroyed, even if he fled back, after such a defeat, I am afraid that he will not escape death, Youzhou is lost, can he still live?

Hateful, hateful raged swordsman. He must have deceived himself, if Li Yu was still there, how could this iron horse suddenly appear and defeat him?

Just when Wang Xiong was surprised, suddenly there was a long howl from the hill in front of him, which was like a dragon's roar, leisurely and endless. It was a howling sound that only a skilled swordsman could make.

"Look, my lord!" The guard pointed to the front.

Wang Xiong had already seen that at the foot of the hill in front of him, a person was dressed in rags and carrying a sword on his back, standing proudly, it was the ragged swordsman who deceived him!

Wang Xiong was already dizzy, he actually dared to wait for him here! Wang Xiong shouted, "Rush up." Kill him! ”

The guards left a few people to protect Wang Xiong, and the rest of the ground rushed forward, and in their opinion, it would not take much time to kill such a person. They used thrusting spears, and several spears were pierced together. That person will definitely be stabbed into a hedgehog. The war horse galloped, and the sound of hooves trampled like a tornado.

However, the reaction of the ragged swordsmen was completely unexpected by them. While the spearhead stabbed him, he did not retreat but advanced, rolled to the ground, and occasionally avoided the spear's assassination. But the four hooves of the war horse like iron flew in, and the huge war horse and the iron-clad samurai flew up, with huge potential energy, which could knock a person to death. The ragged swordsman's eyes widened at this moment, and the long sword suddenly came out of its sheath, the cold light flashed, and a puff of blood squirreled out. The horse's belly was sliced open, and the two front legs flew out along with the dripping internal organs, staining the earth red. The knight fell to the ground, broke his neck, and died on the spot.

The ragged swordsman was behind several knights, and with a wave of his right hand, a few cold rays flew towards the guard. The horses tore and fell, throwing the knights to the ground. The ragged swordsman was also hit by a horse. Blood gushed out of his mouth. But he still stood up proudly and walked towards Wang Xiong.

Wang Xiong was shocked. I was stunned for a moment, watching the swordsman approach.

"Your Excellency." The ragged swordsman stood twenty paces in front of Wang Xiong and stopped, shouting. As if sensing the fear in the hearts of Wang Xiong and the guards around him, or the innate extremely sensitive feeling of the war horse, Wang Xiong and his guarded war horse involuntarily stopped and neighed uneasily.

"You, what do you want?" Wang Xiong coughed, as if he felt fearful and embarrassed, and his voice suddenly became stern again, "Is this how you did Nie Zheng?" You didn't kill Li Pleiades, but harmed my army, this is also an assassin? ”

The ragged swordsman bowed his head in shame: "Your Excellency is right, I really don't look like an assassin in doing this. So," he looked up again, "I have decided not to be an assassin anymore, and since the leaders of the assassin world have become Ji Han's lieutenant generals, how can I not change my evil and turn from good?" ”

"What?!" Wang Xiong's eyes widened in surprise, "You said that Li Yu was also an assassin?" ”

"The name of the North Korean dragon place, adults won't know it."

"It turned out to be him." Wang Xiong spoke, with an indescribable bitterness in his tone, "For several years, I have been trying to bring him under my command, but I have not succeeded, I can't imagine that he has another identity." I was really blind and bribed the Assassins to assassinate him. It seems that you refuse to let me go today, are you planning to kill me here, or are you planning to give me to Li Pleiades? ”

The ragged swordsman shook his head and said, "Although I don't plan to be an assassin anymore, I can't do anything about killing my employer." But, my lord, can you still go back to Zhuo County? Even if he goes back, can Cao Wei let the adults go? ”

"What do you want?"

"I didn't want to do anything, I just came to pass on a word. The Iron Knight King said that as long as the adults are willing to surrender, then he will keep the peace of the adults' families and children. ”

Wang Xiong gritted his teeth and remained silent. The ragged swordsman smiled: "Is it because my lord is embarrassed by others around him?" It doesn't matter, I killed them. ”

Several of the guards were frightened by the ragged swordsman, and they looked at Wang Xiong nervously, eager to say on Wang Xiong's behalf that I would like to come down.

Wang Xiong finally dropped the horsewhip in his hand and closed his eyes.

。。。。。。。。。。。

After learning that Wang Xiong had surrendered, even Guan Feng, who didn't care about the raged swordsman, couldn't help but ask Li Yu: "Who is this person?" ”

Li Yu smiled, "Assassins don't need names. But I can tell you one thing, do you know that someone assassinated Sun Ce back then? ”

"It's Xu Gong's doorman."

"It's all said out there, but who knows the truth? You know, the first skill of a true assassin is to keep his identity secret. Moreover, Xu Gong has no ability, will his disciples be so loyal to him, will they avenge him desperately? ”

Guan Feng was stunned: "What do you mean ......?"

"Xu Gong has long been dead, Sun Ce's life and death have no effect on him, if you think about Sun Ce's death, who is most beneficial, you can probably figure out who is behind it."

"You mean Cao Cao, he has always been a little afraid of Sun Ce, calling it a lion to fight, and his advisor Guo Jia actually predicted that Sun Ce would die under assassination; Or, after Sun Ce's death, his seat was given to Sun Quan......"

Li Yu laughed: "Think for yourself, I won't tell you." What is certain, however, is that the Ragged Sword is in the same league as the Assassins. He rode forward and patted the ragged swordsman on the shoulder: "Good work, brother. ”

The ragged swordsman took a breath of cold air: "This war horse really can't be touched directly, I actually broke my ribs." ”

。。。。。。。。。。

After the Han army defeated the Wei army and forced Wang Xiong to surrender on the battlefield, the situation in Youzhou completely turned in favor of Ji Han. Under the leadership of Wang Xiong, the Han army easily occupied Zhuo County, Guangyang County, Yuyang County and Youbeiping County, and the entire Youzhou was completely in the hands of Ji Han. The Han army took Zhuojun and did not stay, but continued to move south, breaking through Fanyang and Beixincheng within seven days, and attacking Zhongshan Kingdom. When the news reached Yecheng, the government and the opposition were greatly shocked. The idea of moving the capital arose again, and many ministers suggested that Cao Rui move the capital to Linzi or Xudu in Qingzhou. And Cao Rui said that Yecheng is the capital of the Great Wei Dynasty, and it should not be abandoned lightly, even if it faces great danger, it must be defended. However, in the face of the emergency situation in Youzhou, Cao Rui finally made up his mind and sent the most elite new five battalions to the battlefield.

In February, Zhang Fei, the general of the Ji Han Cavalry, was sick and could not be a director, so Wei Yan, the assassin of Bingzhou, acted as the military officer, and Zhang Fei returned to Luoyang to recuperate.

In February, Sima Yi was strictly ordered by Cao Rui to attack Luyang City through Luyang Road to the north. The former general of Cao Wei was full of favors and went north from Yingchuan to attack Xuanyuan Pass.

In mid-February, Cao Tai, the son of Cao Zhang, led the cavalry battalion to break through Li Pleiades and rode in Yi County, and the Han army was defeated in a row and ceded Zhuo County. Cao Wei won a big victory.
