Chapter 549: Latent

In addition to the four hundred crossbowmen who stayed on standby, Chen Yan and five hundred sword and axe men were on standby, and the rest of the soldiers immediately left in a hurry in the night.

At this time, if Chen Yan's judgment is good, there is still more than an hour before dawn, it is winter at this time, and the night in the north is long in winter, and it is precisely because of this late night as a shelter that Chen Yan's army can retreat quickly.

At this time, Cheng Yu had already come to the outside of the alley, his face was solemn, and he really realized that this Chen Yan was a difficult opponent, I am afraid that compared to Lu Bu, Chen Yan was not far behind, at this time, the entire Beihai City was covered with heavy snow, and Cheng Yu wrapped the hooves of the war horse in cloth is a good way to deal with it.

However, even if Cheng Yu overcame the difficulty of heavy snow, and the problem that the cavalry could not charge in the alley, Cheng Yu could not overcome in a short period of time, Chen Yan quickly found Cheng Yu's weakness, and immediately made a decision to use it, such a reaction can be regarded as amazing.

Cheng Yu's old face became more and more ugly, he knew that if he delayed at this time, it would be even more tricky, thinking of this, he waved his hand violently and said to the forward troops: "Hurry up and take a look, move quickly, don't let Chen Thief gain a firm foothold!" ”

The cavalry in front did not dare to disobey, and immediately rode their horses and whipped, and rushed towards the alley.

The sound of rumbling horses' hooves had already told Chen Yan that the enemy soldiers were approaching, Chen Yan saw it in his eyes, sneered slightly, waved his hand violently, and said, "Release the arrow!" ”

Just when Chen Yan's words came out, Cheng Yu's cavalry troops happened to rush to the mouth of the alley, and at this moment, arrows were like flying locusts, how could those cavalry expect that Chen Yan had already been in battle, and they were all taken aback at this time, and they were all caught off guard, and they all became live targets all of a sudden!

I only heard the screams, the screams were endless, the screams were that the soldiers were hit by arrows, either turned over and fell off the horse or died on the spot, and the screams were that the war horses were not spared, some were even worse, almost the first to bear the brunt.

This round of bows and arrows was fired, Chen Yan spent about one-third of the arrows, but he directly slaughtered Cheng Yu's vanguard troops, the alleys were too narrow, although Cheng Yu's cavalry troops were quite numerous, but they could not rush in at the same time, Chen Yan took advantage of this advantage and successfully hindered his first round of attack!

Cheng Yu had already fled because Chen Yan was taking advantage of the narrowness of the alley, who would have thought that Chen Yan would be a battalion step by step, and he would stay to intercept and kill, and this time he lost the cavalry troops inexplicably, which made Cheng Yu angry.

"What a Chen Yan, he does have a bit of courage!"

Although Cheng Yu was furious, he still didn't forget to praise his opponent, and it could be seen that this old man was also a very open-minded person. But it is useless to have a mind and bearing, at this time, Chen Yan's cover-up made Cao Jun's corpses all over the field, and the corpses of the cavalry had already sealed the intersection of the alley, at this time, if Cheng Yu wanted to enter again, it would be difficult.

Thinking of this, Cheng Yu hurriedly reacted, and immediately called a general who had served under Xiahou Yuan and asked, "Where is the end of this alley?" How many exits are there? ”

When the general heard this, he immediately replied: "Back to Cheng Gong, there are two other exits in the alley, one in the south and one in the southeast. ”

Cheng Yu nodded when he heard this, at this time, most of Chen Yan's army had been withdrawn, and the remaining troops were not much, and they would definitely not be able to compete with his own cavalry team, thinking of this, Cheng Yu immediately waved his hand: "The soldiers are divided into two ways, let's outflank!" ”

As soon as these words came out, the cavalry under his command immediately galloped away, and the war horse "Herod" roared and chased the wind, and it was murderous for a while.

In the alley, Chen Yan heard Cheng Yu's cavalry team suddenly start moving, he frowned, and he had probably guessed Cheng Yu's thoughts.

"What a cunning fellow, he wants to encircle and suppress us......"

Thinking of this, Chen Yan's brows immediately twisted into a Sichuan character, he knew in his heart that he had sent most of the soldiers at this time, and at this time, with the five hundred sword axes and four hundred archers under his command, I am afraid it would be really difficult to break through head-on.

"What can wait at this time is that Fengxiao and them rescued in time...... Fortunately, it was not yet dawn, and Cheng Yu would definitely not be able to force himself in at this time......"

Considering the blessing of the night, Chen Yan felt a little more steady, but this was the first time Chen Yan had come to Beihai, so he naturally didn't know the structure of Beihai City, this alley looked like it was only three miles long, and he really didn't know how many exits there were in this alley.

However, seeing that the road in front of him had been filled with the corpses of Cheng Yu's cavalry, the cavalry should not be able to rush in, since this was the case, then Chen Yan could hide in the alley and wait for his teammates to come to the rescue.

Zhang Liao, Guan Yu, Huang Zhong...... No matter who you are, you have the demeanor of a general, and you will never let yourself wait longer.

Chen Yan has a lot of trust in these people in his heart, and it is precisely because of this trust that he can come to the back in a down-to-earth manner.

Thanks to the fact that this alley is not too long, and Chen Yan is in it, it didn't take long for Chen Yan to figure out the other two exits of this alley, and the sound of horses' hooves was still galloping outside, which showed that although Cheng Yu's cavalry team had strong horsepower, it seemed that the distance to run was far more than three miles, so it had not yet arrived at this time.

The young generals beside Chen Yan were a little worried, and he asked Chen Yan in a low voice: "Da Sima, do we want to rush out before they come?" ”

Chen Yan shook his head and said: "Nonsense, the speed of their cavalry is ten times that of ours, if we go out, I'm afraid we will be caught up in a while, there is no support outside, how can we, the infantry, be the opponent of the cavalry?" ”

The young general knew that he was speechless, and immediately blushed and didn't dare to say more.

Chen Yan carefully examined the south and southeast exits of the alley, shook his head, and immediately divided the sword and axe men and the archers into two teams, so that the two teams were stationed at the two exits.

At this moment, the sound of horses' hooves outside gradually became louder, and it could be seen that Cheng Yu's cavalry had already rushed to the exit of the alley.

It's just that Cheng Yu seems to have suffered a big loss just now, so he didn't dare to step forward for the time being, and the cavalry just kept wandering outside, and gradually couldn't hear the rumbling of horses' hooves, but he could hear the noisy discussion.

Chen Yan is not an ordinary thief, but a famous general in Yanzhou, and even the great Sima of the Han Dynasty, if they can easily strangle him in the alley, then Chen Yan's reputation will be in vain.

Now Cheng Yu naturally understands this truth, he knows that the cavalry charge into battle is infinitely powerful, but it is very cumbersome in the street fighting, thinking of this, he immediately ordered: "East Third Battalion, dismount and hold a shield!" ”

Before the words fell, a cavalry team had already come down from the warhorse, and the three eastern battalions looked like about 3,000 people, quite a few of them, all wearing scimitar shields.

Cheng Yu saw it in his eyes, nodded his head to express satisfaction, and immediately said: "There are also crossbow soldiers under the Chen thief, they are in ambush in the alley at this time, and they can't charge directly with cavalry, so you have to go to explore the road first, remember, don't be greedy for merit, don't enter lightly!" ”
