Chapter 17: The White Horse
The next day, the scouts reported that General Gongsun Zhan and the people and horses of Liaoxi were fighting Zhenghan, and the two sides were evenly matched. The soldiers were very fast, and Zhao Yun immediately bid farewell to Zhao Mu, the county order, and escorted the grain and grass to Beiping.
Yuyang is not far from Beiping, and in only three days, it has reached the boundary of Beiping. Beiping has been war-torn for a long time, and the official road of the Great White Day is deserted. We hurried all the way to the outside of Beiping City, and the soldiers guarding the city checked the customs clearance documents and let our brigade enter the city.
Gongsun Chan was not in the city, and he could hear the words of the grain officer who delivered the military rations, Gongsun Chan fought against Qiu Liju's army yesterday and has not returned so far, and the Qing, You, and Hebei prefectures were invaded by the Yellow Turban Army, and there were no reinforcements to send in the city. "The imperial court no longer sends troops to prevent the barbarian invasion, and General Gongsun is the only one guarding the northern border, which is very desolate to say. The grain officer sighed.
Zhao Yun thought for a moment and said: "General Gongsun has always fought bravely, and I am afraid that there is a risk of going deep alone. ”
"Brother Zhao, are we going to pick it up?" I asked cooperatively.
"Now we are a new force in the entire city of Beiping, although the number is small, but the surprise victory, maybe we can achieve great success. Zhao Yun announced loudly: "Soldiers, you have to work hard again!"
Everyone followed Zhao Yun to be invincible, their fighting spirit was high, and they saw that there was a battle to fight, and they also volunteered. Zhao Yun said again: "The soldiers are fine but not many, and to answer General Gongsun, it is important to be fast, and it is enough to have cavalry." The sergeant with the horse will follow me, and the other soldiers will be asked to defend the city and receive them!"
And every man counted his horses, and including me, there were no more, no less, exactly two hundred. Zhao Yun snorted lightly, the city gate, and we headed towards the north. After about two hours of rushing, there was a sudden shout in front of him, and it seemed that the two sides were fighting. Zhao Yun gently patted the white horse, held a bright silver spear, and rode away.
I also hurriedly patted the horse to catch up, just arrived at the front of the battlefield, only to see a black pressure of a group of people, more than ten white horses surrounded in the center, and among the white horses, a general white horse and black armor, is holding a steel lance, shouted loudly: "White horse righteousness, today's things are dead and lifeless, if I die, you will also fight to the last man and a horse!"
"Fight to the death!" shouted the crowd.
The dead deserve to die, this is fate.
As he spoke, an arrow came at the enemy, hitting a white-horse soldier who fell off his horse and still drew his sword to kill the enemy. Sure enough, it was the most famous dead soldier in the north of the Han Dynasty!
The general's beard was wide open, and he shouted, "Kill!" and slew at the enemy. Although the number of Bai Ma Yicong is small, they cooperate very regularly, the left and right cross each other, help each other, and can support some time.
The word "Gongsun" was written on the big curtain next to me, and I expected that the besieged general was Gongsun Zhan, so I didn't hesitate at the moment, and shouted: "General Gongsun, we're here to save you!" A white horse and silver spear were like arrows from the string, and they had already rushed into the crowd, the guns were rolling, and those who blocked them were all dead and alive, it turned out to be Zhao Yun. I saw that the spear was all over the body, like dancing pear blossoms, and the body was one after another, like drifting snow.
I lamented in my heart: "Such a fierce girl is rare in the world, and whoever marries someone in this life is unlucky." ”
When Gongsun Zhan saw that there were reinforcements, his spirits were greatly lifted at that time, and he killed with a lance, and everyone dared not approach for a while. "General, the time has come. A white horse told Gongsun Zhan.
"Wait. Gongsun Chan shouted.
Seeing that the enemies were gathering more and more, Zhao Yun rushed to Gongsun Zhan's side and said, "General Gongsun, Zhao Yun will take you to fight a bloody road, and it will be too late if you don't leave!"
As he spoke, Zhao Yun swung his gun and killed two enemy soldiers who attacked Gongsun Chan, but unexpectedly, a cold arrow hit Gongsun Chan's right chest, and Gongsun Chan fell off his horse. Zhao Yun stretched out his hand and pulled Gongsun Zhan onto his horse, and the blood stained the white robe. At this time, I could only hear Gongsun Chan shout with his last strength: "It's now, blow the trumpet and gather troops!"
It turned out that Gongsun Chan had already laid an ambush around, but he and Bai Ma Yicong were used as bait to lure the main force of the enemy army to come and enter their encirclement.
But at this time, the enemy soldiers in Liaoxi had already killed the red eye, and even if they died, they had to take Gongsun Zan to accompany them to the funeral. Seeing the surrounding Han soldiers killing, instead of retreating, they killed Gongsun Zan even more frantically.
Zhao Yun kept the living person dancing with a spear from approaching, and the prancing horse killed the crowd. I only saw a few enemy soldiers stabbing the horse's belly, and Zhao Yun pulled the horse's neck, and the horse's front hooves neighed, causing the enemy's spears to pierce the air. Zhao Yun threw away the spear, drew his sword and slashed at the enemy's spear. At this time, an enemy general caught up from behind and stabbed Zhao Yun with a shot, Zhao Yun could have easily dodged, but Gongsun Chan was sitting behind, but he couldn't dodge.
I saw Zhao Yunjian hand over to his left hand, stretched out his right hand and grabbed the spear, and his hand was suddenly dripping with blood. She swung her sword and cut off the head of the spear, the general was so shocked that he turned his head to run, but Zhao Yun threw the head of the spear and stabbed it straight into the man's chest.
Zhao Yun's right hand was injured, and swinging his sword was already disadvantageous. I saw that I was full of blood, and patted my horse to protect her, and said, "You go first, I'll protect you!"
My broadsword has long been hungry and thirsty, and the knife technique has been used to the extreme, and the knife technique of this sect is not known for its defensive position, but it is also like a storm when it is attacked. The enemy who only killed cried for his father and mother, and broke his arms and legs to the ground.
At this time, Gongsun Zhan's ambush army also arrived, and Zhao Yun protected Gongsun Chan and ran out of the battlefield. After all, I didn't come to fight, watching Zhao Yun leave, I was afraid that she would make a mistake alone, so I followed her out.
After running for a while, there was no one around, Zhao Yun turned over and dismounted, and helped Gongsun Chan against a mountain rock. "General Gongsun, can you still hold on?" Zhao Yun asked.
"Ahem, ahem...... I'm fine," Gongsun Chan said while coughing up blood, "Where is this? Help me back, I'm going to kill the thief!"
As he spoke, he was about to get up, but he lost too much blood and fell to the ground.
"General, rest assured, your ambush has surrounded the Wuhuan army, and it is expected that there is no suspense in this battle. Zhao Yundao.
Gongsun Chan was relieved and nodded slowly. Then he asked, "This general, I don't know what to call it?"
Zhao Yun hugged his fists and said: "Zhao Zilong in Xia Changshan." ”
"Thank you for saving your life!" Gongsun Chan reluctantly hugged his fists.
"The general can't say much, it's better to rest in peace. Zhao Yundao. After a while, Gongsun Chan passed out.
Zhao Yun inspected the wound, frowned, and said to me: "General Gongsun was hit by a hidden arrow, I am very inconvenient, you can bandage him." ”
When I heard this, I saw that Gongsun Chan still had a long arrow in his chest, but it was blocked by the armor, and the arrow did not go deep. At that time, Gongsun Chan had already passed out, I tore off the placket of my shirt and prepared to pull out the arrow, and sure enough, blood was splashed everywhere, I stuffed the placket into his wound to stop the bleeding, and wrapped a cloth around his wound.
At that time, the night was deep, and Zhao Yun did not watch from the sidelines, but silently looked into the distance, thoughtful.
"Brother Zhao, what are you thinking?" I asked.
"Brother Duan, in today's world of great controversy, General Gongsun Zhan is righteous and thin, and he does not care about life and death in order to resist Liaoxi's invasion. You say, is he the one I want?"
"Well, the good general needs to find the master...... It's good to stay for the time being. One day, you will meet a better lord. I muttered. But I secretly wondered in my heart: Is this history what I thought it was?
"Ao?" Zhao Yun said, "Listen to what you mean, there is already a candidate in your heart?"
"Hmm...... No," I hurriedly argued, "I mean that this is a world of great contention, and that Maxima will always meet Bole. ”
"I seem to have discovered you and know a lot of things. ”
"I read a lot! The master often said that reading can be reasonable. I quibbled.
"So, Brother Duan, who reads a lot, do you ...... Do you feel happy to be with me?"
"What, what did you say?" I never expected that at this moment, she would ask such a question, and I was so shocked that I almost dislocated my jaw.
Zhao Yun suddenly smiled charmingly, and her daughter's demeanor was complete, I was actually stupid.
"Immeasurable virtue, female benefactor, you can't tease Taoist priests. I said with a bitter face.
The female color is in front, and I have always been calm about the little Taoist priest of the Quanzhen Sect. Mainly, this female benefactor is not something I don't even dare to flirt with in spring dreams......
"Brother Duan, I really have something to ask for. ”
"What's the matter, tell me about it?"
"You can accompany me back to my hometown. ”
"Why?"
"First of all, do you want to say yes?"
I thought about it for a long time, and with Zhao Yun's strength, it seemed unlikely that he would come to me for anything. But when I open my mouth at this time, I think that there must be something difficult to decide in my heart.
"Help people to the end, send the Buddha to the west, I agreed. I sighed.
I really like her......
