Chapter 15: Who Gave Them Courage?

The north wind blew on his body, Hua Xiong only felt more and more refreshed, more and more happy, and the speed of the war horse under the seat was getting faster and faster, accelerate! accelerate! accelerate! charge! charge!

Soon!

It's really fast!

The distance between the front and back is only more than fifty zhang, and it is just a matter of charging for the war horse at this moment. Thinking of this, Hua Xiong, who was getting faster and faster, clenched the long knife in his hand and squinted his eyes and looked ahead.

Silently gathering the qi in his body, Hua Xiong planned to split the two carts with a single sword! He firmly believed that under his knife, the cart in front of him would never be spared.

Click!

There was a very subtle sound, and suddenly Hua Xiong's ears moved, and then he jumped down and jumped off the war horse, from the original speed of at least ten steps to an instant stop. He only took one breath, and the ground under his feet was trampled by him with two deep footprints.

As for the original warhorse, it was a wail and then fell to the ground, followed by an even more painful wail.

Yes!

Yes!

Yes!

The cries of pain continued to be heard, and the faster the cavalry rushed, the faster they died!

Not every cavalry has Huaxiong's peerless force, and he can jump off his horse in an instant.

Most of the cavalry, jumping off their horses in a hurry, fell badly, the difference was minor or serious, and even some of the unlucky ones twisted their necks directly or were trampled under the feet of their horses......

Raising his feet, Hua Xiong found the culprit!

It is a peculiarly shaped nail that looks like four nails are stuck together, and four nails radiate towards the surrounding space from the center of the origin.

This peculiar shape makes it so that no matter how it is placed, at the moment when the nail hits the ground, there are three sides to support the ground, and the remaining one side is erected.

A moment later, Dong Zhuo held more than a dozen such nails in his hand, let go of his hand at will, and after landing on the ground, he saw more than a dozen nails with one side upward.

Then he opened his eyes wide, took it in his hand again, and threw it to the ground again, still with one side facing up, as if it had the same effect no matter how he threw it.

Looking at this scene, Dong Zhuo's heart was broken!

How can you do that?

The blacksmiths who make this tool, damn it!

"Although this thing is small, it is made of stainless steel, which is extremely vicious, and the war horse will definitely hurt the horse's hooves when stepping on it, and then the war horse will be wasted. Speaking of this, Li Ru's brows furrowed.

What to do?

Could it be that the army of one person and three horses came here in advance, and they had to return directly to nothing because of this inconspicuous gadget?

"Why don't we nail a layer of iron shoes to the horse's hooves? Wouldn't a war horse wearing iron shoes not be afraid of this thing?" Hua Xiong said with a whim, scratching his head.

"What? How can this be?"

"Can this be?"

Feeling everyone's gaze, Hua Xiong patted his chest: "People can wear shoes, why can't horses wear boots?"

"And after putting on a layer of iron shoes, you are not even afraid of this thing, and you are still afraid of the wear and tear of the stones on the horse's hooves? ”

The more Hua Xiong talked about it, the more excited he became, and even the eyes of the other generals lit up, as if this was the truth, but when did Hua Xiong become so smart?

"Ahem, that's for the future, what should I do today?"

"It's not easy......

The trees were cut down and dragged forward by the cavalry, and then the gadgets were plunged into the trees, but when they were cleared to within thirty feet, they were struck by a strong crossbow.

A strong crossbow, once launched, is a range attack, ordinary cavalry can't stop it at all!

This time, the good cavalry battle turned into a war of attrition!

Dozens of arrows consumed the life of a Xiliang cavalryman, and the Yellow Turban Army's wealth and magnificence directly turned Dong Zhuo's face turned green, this is the Yellow Turban Army? They have so many arrows? Where did their bows and arrows come from? Could it be that the wind is blowing?

Although Dong Zhuo was not a mathematician, and no one had built a mathematical model for him, telling him that at the current rate of casualties, the Flying Bear Army would have to die to completely eliminate this kind of nail, but the sharp intuition of a fierce beast told him that he couldn't go on like this!

When the casualties of the Flying Bear Army went from double digits to triple digits, a safe route five feet wide was finally cleared, but that was all.

At this moment, a full hour has passed since Dong Zhuo was discovered!

"Rush! Huaxiong, you take the lead in rushing! Rush last time to see if you can knock it down. Dong Zhuo said seriously.

At this point, he didn't dare to say that he had to fight it. This Yellow Turban Army is full of evil nature from beginning to end, and the previous experience doesn't seem to be useful to them!

How long is Wuzhang?

One zhang is about three meters three, and five zhang is sixteen meters five, which looks very wide, but for cavalry, it is too narrow!

Cavalry is not the same as infantry, the dense camp of infantry can be very close together, but not cavalry, not only people but also horses!

It's okay for you to let trained people squeeze together side by side, and you let untrained horses suddenly squeeze side by side, that's a stampede!

Crossbow!

Hundreds of powerful crossbows shot at a width of five zhang, almost continuously, and from a hundred paces away, cavalry continued to fall to the ground, which was a road to death.

Dong Zhuo didn't care about their casualties, Li Ru didn't care about their casualties, and even they didn't care about themselves, when the comrades in front fell, the cavalry behind didn't have time to grieve, so they controlled their horses and jumped over, charging towards the cart in the distance!

Ten horsemen passed, and at least five fell to the ground and fell on the way to the charge.

Drink!

With a loud shout of grief and indignation, Hua Xiong held a long knife in his hand, and slashed at the cart in front of him, and the knife was destroyed out of the car!

At the same time, six or seven spears pierced at him, and when they approached his three feet away, they were blocked by Gang Qi!

With a single tap, six or seven spears broke!

It's not that the quality of the spear is not good, it's that the gang qi is too powerful!

"The thief will die!"

Bang dang!

Their weapons collided, and Hua Xiong's face turned white and he took a few steps back.

Bang dang!

The weapon touched again, and Hua Xiong took a few steps back again!

Bang dang!

Retreating, Hua Xiong found that he had retreated to the outside of the chariot. Looking at the surrounding Flying Bear Army, there were few who could still stand.

This time, he didn't even say anything cruel, so he ran back directly!

Yes, he ran back!

It's two-legged, but it's faster than when you rode a war horse!

A large number of arrows stuck in his back, or followed behind his ass to eat ashes, and when Hua Xiong returned to Dong Zhuo a moment later, he took out the weapon in his hand without saying a word.

"General, it's not that Huaxiong is greedy for life and afraid of death, but that their weapons are too ......."

As soon as Hua Xiong dissipated his anger, the long knife in his hand shattered into dozens of large and small fragments scattered on the ground, Dong Zhuo quickly grabbed a fragment, studied it carefully, and stared at the boss with a pair of eyes.

"Huaxiong, I remember that your long knife is made of iron, weighing three hundred and sixty catties, and it can be regarded as a first-class weapon in the entire Liangzhou. Dong Zhuo said slowly.

"Yes. ”

"Your bravery, your strength in the entire Xiliang, is the first on the bright side. ”

"That's right. ”

"But what about that big black man, is he famous?"

"According to the intelligence of the imperial court, his name is Zhou Cang, and he is a peasant son with some talent. Li Ru added.

When Dong Zhuo asked, Hua Xiong was not afraid at all, because even if Dong Zhuo punished him, he would beat him or demote him, but Li Ru was different. Recalling Li Ru's style in the past, Hua Xiong couldn't help but shudder.

"Wen Wei doesn't have to be like this, we underestimated the Yellow Turban Army! Such a treasure knife was actually held in the hand of an unknown Zhou Cang. ”

"We know too little about the Yellow Turbans, and it is not surprising that we have such a defeat. But this is also a good thing, it is better to lose now than to fail when you command the army in the future. ”

On the surface, he is still smiling, but in his heart, he has scolded the high-level of the court!

With only 5,000 Yellow Turban troops, there are hundreds of powerful crossbows!

Zhou Cang, who is not very famous, has such a powerful weapon, and with the help of the sharpness of the weapon, he can even defeat Hua Xiong, who is known as the first warrior of Xiliang!

A mere 5,000 Yellow Turban Army dared to face the 3,000 Flying Bear Army without running!

Who gave them courage?

Where did they get such strength?

Click!

Suddenly, a flag in front of Dong Zhuo broke, and looking at the cracked place, Li Ru took two copper coins from his sleeve and took a hexagram.

After glancing at the hexagram, he saluted Dong Zhuo: "Father-in-law, we need to leave quickly, the hexagram shows that the enemy army is likely to be copying our rear road." ”

Sitting on the war horse, Dong Zhuoren stood up, glanced at the car array in front of him, and then looked at the flying bear army around him!

There were three thousand just now, and now there are only two thousand seven left!

There are three hundred good men from Liangzhou, lying on the ground, staying here forever.

"That's it, withdraw!"

Woooooo

Blowing the trumpet and withdrawing the troops, on the way back, Dong Zhuo's face was cloudy, because he saw several Yellow Turban Army!

The number of these Yellow Turban Corps ranged from three to five thousand, and each Yellow Turban Army drove similar chariots, which could be used to transport food and supplies, and could also be turned into a defensive line for defense at critical moments.

Even every Yellow Turban Army has at least hundreds of powerful crossbows!

The more I walk, the more depressed I become, and the more I think about it, the more it's not a taste!

Who is the Han army and who is the thief army?

Where did you get so many strong crossbows?

The Yellow Turban Army secretly hides strong crossbows, and it is no problem to hide hundreds of them, considering the size of the Yellow Turban Army, they can do it deliberately!

But now?

Today alone, I've encountered at least a thousand powerful crossbows!

"Damn, all the princes in the court are waste, rice buckets!"

"Lao Tzu is now more and more curious, how did Lu Zhonglang do it at the beginning? Such a powerful Yellow Turban Army was forced by him to !! in Guangzong City by himself."
