To the east of Donglinkou is a low hill with water under it, and to the west is a primeval jungle with thorns, and there are many places where pedestrians cannot be walked, and there is only a passage in the middle.

The passage is like a gourd mouth, the middle is an open space, and the mouth will slowly narrow as it continues to deepen, and the narrowest place can only accommodate five or six people in parallel.

Zhang Xiu led the Xiliang cavalry to open the way first, Wei Yue sat in the middle army, and Xu Sheng was the last to press the formation.

The team of 5,000 people stretched for two or three miles in the passage of Donglinkou.

"Soldiers, the plank road ahead is narrowing, which is not conducive to the movement of the army, speed up the passage!"

"Whoa!"

From Bingzhou, he followed Lu Bu to Guanzhong, and then defeated the Black Mountain thieves in Jizhou, traveled to Yanzhou and Xuzhou, and now came to Yangzhou.

The keen insight precipitated by the experience of a hundred battles made him extremely cautious about such terrain, and if time permitted, he would even send a small force to slowly investigate in front of him to confirm that it was safe to pass through.

Of course, he didn't have such a rich time, and if he had, he could have spent an extra day walking around the mountains without going to Donglinkou.

As the plank road slowly narrowed, Zhang Xiu in front also subconsciously clenched the tiger head golden gun in his hand, and no general would like such terrain.

Whoosh~

Halfway through, a dense rain of arrows poured from the mountain forest on the east side, and more than 30 Xiliang cavalry were brought down in an instant.

Zhang Xiu hurriedly swung the tiger's head golden spear, knocked down the arrows that were shot, and shouted at the same time: "Enemy attack!" Enemy attack! Shieldmen, come up! ”

While this military order blurted out, the lineup looked messy.

Because the terrain is too narrow, the simplest change of defense on weekdays is extremely difficult at this moment, the shield soldiers in the back have to come up, the cavalry in front has to retreat, and even men and horses have collided together.

At the same time, the black-pressed Cao army poured out of the mountain valley, and they followed behind Le Jin, brandishing the ring-headed knife in their hands, and rushed directly towards the Xiliang cavalry under the cover of the rain of arrows.

There is only one purpose, not to let this group of cavalry charge, as long as the cavalry has no speed and fights with the infantry in close combat, his advantage will be lost.

"Retreat! Hurry back! Retreat to the open! After seeing the problem, Zhang Xiu shouted desperately, and the whole team was shouting the same military order, hoping that the people behind would not squeeze up again.

They wanted to retreat, but found that the back road seemed to be blocked, and Wei Yue even scolded anxiously: "What is Xu Sheng doing to eat!" ”

It wasn't until he heard the sound of fighting from the rear that he judged that the back road was also blocked by Cao Jun, and Xu Sheng was fighting with Cao Jun.

Immediately, my heart sank, and I suddenly felt that something was wrong.

No wonder the opponent's crossbowmen didn't start until the middle of the march, but originally planned to eat the team of 5,000 people, and their appetite was not small.

Wei Yue knew very well that being surrounded in such a terrain would not be beneficial at all, and there would be no more than 100 people who could participate in the battle at the same time, so he had to make up his mind quickly, otherwise he would be eaten up by the other party sooner or later.

He raised his position and looked around, but at this time he fell into passivity, and he was unable to fight again when he went to Anko, so it was better to withdraw first.

After making up his mind, Wei Gao raised his spear and shouted: "The Chinese soldiers should not panic, stand by in place, and I will tear the mouth for you!" ”

After speaking, some of the riotous troops were settled, Wei Yue rode his horse to the rear, and the soldiers tacitly gave way, at this time he had no time to care about Zhang Xiu in front of him, if he couldn't tear open the escape hole quickly, everyone would have to bury their bones here.

The plank road in the rear is slightly larger, which can accommodate more than a dozen people side by side, and Xu Sheng is fighting with Cao Jun with Xiliang foot soldiers.

The combat power of Cao Jun is not weak, but Xiliang is still martial, and all the people are soldiers, plus they have fought in Guanzhong for many years, and their courage and fierceness are also eye-catching.

"Death to those who stand in my way!" Wei Yue rushed to the front of the line, stepped on the back of the horse and jumped, and fell directly into the encirclement of the Cao army, waving the spear in his hand unscrupulously, only to hear the tearing sound of the skin being torn was extremely harsh.

Zhang Yan, who can fight with dozens of horses, tens of thousands of black mountain thieves are looking for teeth all over the place, in addition to good martial arts, the spirit of not fearing death is essential.

At this moment, Wei Yue seemed to have completely forgotten that he was the commander of this army, like a fierce beast rushing into the flock, the afterimage of the silver spear dance appeared everywhere, and the bloody mist of the killed Cao army was filled, and a clearing was quickly cleared.

Wei Yue's desperate style of play greatly stimulated the Xiliang Army, and Xu Sheng, who has always regarded himself as charging into battle and not wanting to die, felt his blood boiling, and roared angrily and slashed the chain knife in his hand, cutting melons and vegetables and pushing forward.

When the Xiliang army saw the stitches, Cao Jun took a step back and they seized a step, which had the meaning of breaking the shackles.

For a time, the surrounded Lu army had the upper hand, and it had the intention of suppressing Cao's army.

"Who is this person?" Guo Jia, who was standing on the mountainside watching the battle, couldn't help but be curious.

Xiahou Lan behind him glanced at it, "Wei Yue, the fierce general under Lu Bu." ”

"It turned out to be him."

Guo Jia has heard some deeds about Wei Yue, and the fierce generals who followed Lu Bu to death were once surrounded by three hundred Black Mountain Army, and they actually fought a bloody way, "Today's courage is not inferior to the Black Mountain thieves in Yang County." ”

"It's a pity, I'm going to die in this Donglinkou today."

Xiahou Lan sneered, and then asked: "Sir, why is it so sure that Lin Mo will not attack our Dazhai, thinking that there are only three or two thousand people left in Dazhai now, the last general has palpitations. ”

"Guess."

Guo Jia just smiled faintly, "There has just been a fire in Anfeng County, and he may not be worried that I will set up a fire attack in the camp in the same way, so it should be the most appropriate to do it here." ”

"If the gentleman watches the fire, he will be admired." Xia Houlan made a gesture of admiration.

Below, with the cooperation of Wei Yue and Xu Sheng, because Cao Jun had no fierce generals to help in the battle, they fell at a speed visible to the naked eye.

It's coming, it's coming soon!

Seeing that they were about to reach the mouth of the gourd, the two of them killed more and more fiercely, as long as they killed this road, this wilderness could accommodate thousands of people to fight, and their own combat power could be fully displayed.

Finally, the two of them took the Xiliang soldiers to the mouth of the gourd, but the scene in front of them made their hearts tighten.

Cao Chun rode a war horse and led countless Cao troops to occupy most of the gourd, waiting for them to kill them.

Wei Yue and Xu Sheng glanced at each other, and the two of them were not afraid, and shouted: "Keep killing!" ”

At this point, there is no way back.

After the gourd mouth was opened, the Lu army poured out like a flood, and this time, it was a hand-to-hand fight with the Cao army led by Cao Chun.

Wei Yue became more and more courageous, and he rushed forward with a tiger step that had already drenched his whole body, and stabbed a shot at a Cao soldier, the spear pierced through the armor, and the blood dripped down the head of the spear.

Before he could pull out, the two Cao soldiers had already swung their knives and slashed, and their instinctive reaction drove him to take a few steps back, and he barely pulled back the spear with one hand.

Obviously, these people are different from those just now, and their combat power is incomparable.

To make matters worse, they were clearly well prepared, with the soldiers in front fighting desperately, and the crossbowmen in the back rows constantly firing arrows.

The brothers, who had just rushed out of the mouth of the gourd, fell in pieces in a rain of arrows.

Wei Yue saw the pain in his eyes, and he seemed to understand something.

All this is Cao Jun's calculation.

They first let their people be trapped in a narrow passage, making them uneasy and frightened, and when the opening is opened, the instinctive desire to survive drives them to rush out desperately, so that Cao Jun's arrow rain can shoot unscrupulously!

Puff~

It was just a distraction moment, and a golden feather arrow was shot on Wei Yue's arm, and the pain in his heart made his face hideous, and he looked at it along the trajectory, Cao Chun, who was sitting on the horse, was still holding a strong bow in his hand, staring at himself.

"Chu Nan!" Xu Sheng yelled.

"Leave me alone, rush out!" Wei Yue was really violent, and when he was hit by an arrow in his left arm, he still fought to the death with a spear in his right arm.

The sergeants who had been shot over in the back were almost piled up into a small hill, and they finally waited for the shield soldiers to clear the way.

But Cao Jun seemed to have expected all this for a long time, Cao Chun directly dismounted, grabbed a tung oil jar with both hands and rushed out a few steps, and then took advantage of the situation to throw it out.

There was a bang, and the pungent tung oil was sprinkled all over the ground.

Then, there was a burst of pottery shattering, and Cao Jun threw dozens of tung oil jars over the line.

"Don't come out again, go back!!" Xu Sheng roared hysterically, he knew what was going to happen in the next moment.

As soon as the words fell, a torch threw a gorgeous arc in the air, and after it landed, there was a bang, and the tongue of fire soared high, and the fire spread rapidly along the tung oil.

What followed was the screams one after another, and the high tongue of fire devoured one after another Xiliang army, which also made the Lu army behind him afraid and frightened.

Cao Chun in the distance snorted coldly, "Isn't it very enjoyable when Anfeng County burns us?" ”

Watching Lu Jun running away in the sea of fire, smelling the disgusting smell of burnt meat, Cao Chun only felt inexplicably happy in his heart, the brothers who died in Anfeng County, you can look at it.

"Wen Xiang, take someone to kill back, you can't rush out here!" In addition to the arrows on his body, Wei Yue was also stabbed twice, he didn't know how long he could last, he just hoped that Xu Sheng could fight back, and how many people he brought back counted as many as he could.

"Fart!"

Xu Sheng's situation was not good, he ate a knife, his waist was dripping with blood, and while slashing over Cao Jun who rushed up, he shouted: "Death is death, and if you frown, you are not a man!" ”

This kid is really not a fuel-efficient lamp, Wei Yue glanced at him, and shouted with a wry smile: "Okay, today our brothers will fight here to the death, kill a few more, and the road will not be lonely!" ”

The two of them already had the consciousness of death, and Cao Chun didn't think that they would be able to escape today.

The desperate suffocation swept the hearts of all the soldiers of the Lu army

At that moment, there was a sound of horses' hooves behind Cao Chun, and he turned to look, and a sergeant flew away.

If you look closely, you can even see that the sergeant who was thrown out had a dent in his chest, apparently hit by a heavy object.

In the next breath, in the rolling dust, a familiar figure appeared.

The person who came rode a neighing red rabbit horse, the hundred flower robes under the purple and gold helmet hunted, and the Fang Tian painting halberd held horizontally gave birth to a halo in the sun. "Wen Hou. It's Wen Hou! ”

"Wen Hou is here!"

"Brothers, Wen Hou is here!"

"Hahaha, Wen Hou is here to save us, kill out, kill out and join Wen Hou!"

The originally desperate soldiers and the crumbling military spirit were like grasping the straw that saved their lives at this moment, saw the hope of survival, and began to fight back.
