Lu Lian is a unique swordsman in the world, as brave as King Xiang is alive, and she almost relies on her to decide the victory in several fierce battles, but there is no horse riding in the distance, on the contrary, there is a chariot there, which is surrounded by the stars of the guards on his side.

At such a distance, Yu Ban couldn't see the figure sitting on the car at all, but he suddenly realized it in his heart.

It doesn't matter if she is a man or a woman, what matters is that she is just a "person", whether she is a mortal in the flesh, and she will not be able to heal from her injuries in just a few days!

If she was originally a delicate little woman, and all her feats along the way relied on strategizing, then that's fine, but most of her feats came by relying on her ability to charge into battle!

Now that she is seriously injured, how can she still boost morale like this?!

"Pass my order," he said sharply, "the rear army will be changed to the front army, and two thousand soldiers and horses will be left to block Tai Shici, and the rest will break through Lu Lian's headquarters with me!" ”

"Yes!"

He could have done everything he could to encircle and suppress Tai Shi Ci, but doing so would also cause heavy casualties to his own soldiers - he had no mercy for them, and he would not hesitate to kill them if he needed to, but he knew very well that Guan Yu had a group of soldiers and horses who were about to take the city!

After deceiving Huai'an, he temporarily took the lead, but this is the hinterland of Xuzhou, thousands of miles away from Yanzhou, and the surrounding counties have been subdued by Liu Bei, and even the common people are doing their best to help Liu Bei.

In this Yanxu battle, who is not tormented in a boiling soup pot?

But as long as Lu Lian's soldiers and horses can be defeated, as long as she can be killed while she is seriously injured, that head will have a devastating blow to the morale of Xuzhou!

When the war drums sounded one after another, the sturdy war horse under the forbidden seat also shook off its hooves and trotted up hopefully.

Those Yanzhou soldiers were like huge waves in an instant, crashing into those soldiers who were lining up and moving forward, and the front line had not yet been fully adjusted! At that moment, Yu Ban, who had been in battle for a long time, immediately sensed that the state of these Xuzhou soldiers was very wrong!

Although they seem to be in good spirits and have high morale, when facing his soldiers, they can only parry, but have no power to fight back!

Among the soldiers on the opposite side, I don't know who was the first to take a step back, and the team leader immediately scolded loudly! Hearing that scolding, a huge joy swelled in Yu Ban's heart.

If Lu Lian hadn't been injured, if she had enough soldiers, how could he defeat her now? However, the wars of the past and present will not only be compared to the strength of the two armies - otherwise, where does the saying "the right time, the right place and the right people" come from?

She lacked a little bit of luck, and that bit of luck was consumed during her battle with Cao Ren, and Yu Ban was not at all prepared to let her go as mercifully as Song Xianggong!

This is his fierce rival, and of course he will chase this army until they are completely dead.

"Catch up!" He pointed to the Xuzhou soldiers who began to retreat slowly, and shouted, "Those who can get Lu Lian's head will have millions of silver dollars!" The best of the best! ”

Yu Ban the army is very strict, whether it is gold silk or military merits, he never rewards indiscriminately, so when the commander broke out with such an angry shout, Yanzhou Bing's eyes turned red in an instant!

They walked towards the army that seemed to have begun to break up, especially the figure sitting on the cart and holding the railing in a panic.

The carriage swayed and tossed through the dirt so that it was about to fly, but the coachman was still frantically whipping the two poor horses to make them run faster! It's just that no matter how anxious he is, he can't run fast in such a woodland-

Therefore, the mountain-like silver coins, the shining silk, the beautiful houses of the good fields, and the military exploits that have risen from this step to the top! It's close! It's close! It's just around the corner! The carriage panicked, and finally got stuck in the mud - it could never be pulled out again!

The soldiers' hearts were full of joy, and as they approached, there was a sound of golden cymbals in the distance.

did not take the lead, but pressed the position, and Yu Ban, who was walking slowly, suddenly calmed down, and looked around where they were chasing these scattered Xuzhou soldiers.

It still seemed to be a forest, but the trees were tall and thick, and the light fell sparsely, and it looked a little dim from a distance, so the soldiers went in and noticed that perhaps it was a low-lying place, and it had rained a few days ago, so the ground was very muddy, and it was difficult to pull it out if you stepped on it.

This is not a good place, Yu Ban immediately thought of this, his soldier formation had already run away, and he chased Lu Lian into such a quagmire, if-

But the figure that seemed to have been hiding in the car, unable to get up and command the army, stood up from afar with the sound of the golden cymbal, and when she took off the longbow behind her back and aimed in the direction of the big cymbal behind the forbidden body, even the golden cymbal could not hide it, and the sound of the crossbow machine pulling open and slowly tightening was resounding around one by one.

But Yu Ban's mind was temporarily emptied.

From such a distance, he still seemed to see her every move clearly.

The arrow she had mounted on the bowstring shone with an icy glow, exactly the same as the light in her eyes.

Chapter 265

"Flag ——! Guard"

When such a voice sounded, the soldiers on his side were panicked and hurriedly went to protect this big flag, Lu Lian's arrow had already flown over like a meteor, and the first arrow pierced the head of a tooth flag soldier who was guarding the banner, and in the chaos, the second arrow came again, hitting the flagpole!

If there is a third arrow, this banner will not be able to hold it no matter what! As soon as the military flag fell, the soldiers didn't know why, and their morale was about to collapse in an instant!

So even the guards guarding Yu Ban around were busy raising their long cards, and when they wanted to protect Da Xu, Yu Ban, who was in the center of this chaotic vortex, understood everything for a moment.

- That marksman is none other than Lu Lian himself.

And falling into such a predicament is really because he thinks too much and thinks too little.

At the time of the decisive battle this morning, Tai Shi Ci only had 2,000 foot soldiers left, and his strength was twice as large as his, and there were tiger and leopard cavalry guards on the side, and he was not afraid of Zhang Liao's Bingzhou cavalry, so if he was a reckless man who did his best at all costs, he must have broken through Tai Shi Ci's more than 2,000 people;

But he was jealous of Lu Lian in his heart, and gradually became greedy, thinking that he was fighting according to the city anyway, if Lu Lian was weak, he could break it, if Lu Lian was brave and the soldiers were brave and did not lose to the Yanzhou soldiers, he could also maintain the defensive position, calmly retreat to Huai'an City, and join forces with the defenders in the city to attack Liu Bei's elite army;

He had such a plan, so he used it as a basis and began to speculate about how Lu Lian would act - she was careful all the way, not allowing enemy scouts to probe closely, and she must want to cover up something, and considering what the captives said, this army of soldiers and horses was extremely tired, Yu Ban naturally felt that her plan had been investigated, and he divided his troops to step forward, wanting to destroy her soldiers and horses! Is there something wrong with him thinking? The first battle of Lu Lian's fame was not to make three hundred recruits disguise themselves as the five thunder Taoists under Yuan Shu's command under the city of Xiapi, bluffing, so that Cao Bing could mess up without a fight, so that he had a chance to kill Cao Hong?

He divided his troops and tried it a little, and the weakness that was carefully covered up by Lu Lian was clear! Doesn't this confirm the suspicions and inferences in his heart?

Yu Ban thought about it so much, but he never thought that even this logical weakness was the appearance of Lu Lian's disguise!

It is true that the combat effectiveness of those soldiers has dropped considerably, but their morale is not low, and although they have retreated, they still defend each other and fight side by side.

And the foundation that sustains this morale is the female commander who stood on the car and pulled the strong bow for the third time!

It is more difficult to shoot the enemy commander in the middle of the army, because the commander will always have dozens or even hundreds of guards around him, holding long cards, vigilantly protecting him.

But the boss behind the coach also has such treatment, and no matter which of the two is threatened, it will cause morale to collapse in an instant.

Therefore, when the two arrows chasing the stars and the moon were rushing towards the big flag, the guards in front of the forbidden body couldn't help but panic to look at the symbol of the army's heart, and in this moment, a small gap was finally briefly revealed in front of the boss!

When the crossbow bolt came out of the forest and headed towards the scattered soldiers, Lu Lian's third arrow did not continue to aim at Daxu, but adjusted the angle slightly.

So the tip of the arrow gently pointed at Yu Ban.

And the cavalry and long-card soldiers in front of him have been distracted by the first two arrows, and at this moment, no one will turn back to protect their main general.

Despite being in the midst of thousands of troops, Yu Ban's body was like falling into an ice cave, and he clearly realized that he had to face this arrow on his own.

Although the army is strictly organized, and the law is under control, and even looks like a bit of a high and solemn demeanor, Yu Ban's background is not noble.

He came from a cold family, in the early years when Bao Xin, the prime minister of Jibei, recruited county soldiers to encircle and suppress the Yellow Turban, Yu Ban was attached, and then Bao Xin set up Cao Cao as the pastor of Yanzhou, and then Bao Xin died in battle, and Yu Ban came to Cao Cao's command naturally.

His career as a horse soldier for more than ten years was not achieved overnight, but Yu Ban paid great attention to his studies, no matter what position he was, he not only studied hard in the military books, but also listened carefully to the experience of those old revolutionists.

For example, what if you are riding on a horse and there is an archer on the opposite side who is about to shoot?

A cavalryman returning from the northern frontier taught him this: You pull the reins so hard that you force the horse to raise its head, and then it will fall back to the ground, and the man will rise.

- And then, what happens?

Yu Ban had never encountered such a life-and-death situation, but he still remembered this sentence in his heart. When the coach on the opposite side let go of his hand, and the full bow turned into a streamer, and came straight towards him with a clear sound that broke through the air, the middle-aged man grabbed the reins fiercely in an instant!

The horse jerked to its feet, blocking the Commander's body behind it, and then the smooth fur was pierced by the arrow! A long neighing erupted from the chests of the majestic horse, and when the horse's two front hooves hit the ground, its body could no longer stand.

But as long as this moment, as long as this arrow is blocked, it is enough!

Without waiting to be lifted off, Yu Ban jumped off the horse with agility, and almost at the same time, blood foamed at the mouth of the war horse, and he fell to the ground without a few struggles.

When the guards turned back to rescue him in shock, Yu Banzheng turned his head.

His gaze passed through the countless soldiers, under his command, or under Lu Lian's, through the dim trees and branches, and finally his gaze still fell on the man.

Her third arrow could not kill him, and she did not seem to be annoyed, and she jumped from the carriage that had been bogged down in the swamp, and with a very light step blended into the woods, mingling with her soldiers.

The sky was getting darker, and the woodland, which was unfamiliar with the forbidden place, became more dangerous.

It was clear that the woodland was also in her scheme—he was unfamiliar with the topography and had caught himself unguarded in such a predicament. A trace of such annoyance flashed in Yu Ban's heart, but this trace of annoyance was quickly left behind by him.

He has also experienced a hundred battles, and has established a great military exploit and prestige, he is not the mediocre talent who can scare the six gods without a master at the slightest trick! Even if it is a desperate situation, he has to find a way!

"Pass the order! The rattan soldiers are in front to block the arrows! He said sharply, "The rest of the soldiers fought in the army, listened to Jin Zheng's movements, slowly retreated, and regrouped their formation!" ”

If Lu Xuanyu had a little contempt for him in her heart when she was just tempted to enter the forbidden city—she did lure him into this forest with a small number of troops, and gradually encircled him with crossbowmen and the main force—this contempt also disappeared at this moment.

When Yu Ban realized that he had fallen into a trap, he barely showed any panic.

Whether it was the means of dodging her arrow, or the orders given afterwards, they all showed the calm and decisive means of this general.

He made a mistake, but he accepted the predicament he had fallen into as a result of that mistake and tried extremely hard to get out of it, not even giving up the possibility of a comeback.

The soldiers struggled to retreat through the swamp, which was not an easy task.

They had to use all their strength to pull their feet out of the mud, but at the same time, they had to hide as much as they could behind the rattan players, as the crossbowmen and archers in ambush in the forest rained down arrow after arrow!

But the rattan card is only three feet square, and it can only block one side, Yu Ban wants to use a rattan card to protect five or six people, where can he protect these many people?

The soldiers were still struggling, they were falling, they were covered in mud, they were covered in blood! Their eyes almost bulged out, howling, roaring, rolling in the mud, and even walking hand and foot in the direction of the manager!

Their commander and the few comrades who had never entered the swamp were fighting hard against Lu Lian's soldiers at the entrance to the woodland, as long as they got there...... Just walk there! Just climb there!

Whether it's a flag, a trophy, or a pocket with dry food, you can drop anything!

As long as you can get there!

The rain gradually began to fall in the forest, and when the layers of leaves took over, they slowly slid to the ground, turning into droplets of water that could not be ignored.

She was hit on her forehead by such a raindrop, and when she looked up in amazement, the blades covering her head shook suddenly!

The wind is blowing.

Although this storm had an omen, she couldn't imagine it, no one could have imagined that it would come so quickly, so coincidentally, and so untimely!

Yu Ban also raised his head suddenly, he thought as fast as Lu Lian, and almost without thinking, he shouted.

"The way of heaven is in me!" He shouted, "This storm is proof! ”

"The way of heaven is in me!"

"Victory!"

"Victory!"

With such wind and rain, those arrows and crossbow arrows are still secondary, and the loss of strength is the key! Who can draw a bow and shoot an arrow in such a stormy situation?

Either take a step forward and fight a decisive battle, or you can only watch them withdraw from this forest and join Yu Ban's other two thousand troops!

The soldiers' clothes were wet, along with their bandages of muslin and the spears and halberds in their hands, all wet by the sudden storm.

They were still fighting hard, but there were more and more soldiers around Yu Ban.

Without the isolation and harvesting of the rain of arrows, the swamp alone could not wipe out an army, so the Yanzhou soldiers were able to gradually assemble and gradually recover their formation, even though they looked extremely embarrassed, they still did not flee or retreat!

In the face of such a strong enemy, who can not be moved? As a result, her soldiers seemed to be watching her in silence while fighting.

They trekked through mountains and rivers, fought battle after battle, and each one of them had wounds on his body.

Therefore, it is almost only by one breath that it persists.
