The big man is on the run

Chapter 85 I'm Careless, No Flash
"Come up!"

The cavalry shouted and pursued, but in the sparse woods, more than 200 infantry began to fall behind.

"This group of dogs are crazy!"

Cui Yong cursed, seeing that some of his own cavalry were also falling behind, he couldn't help feeling anxious, and hurriedly shouted: "Everyone, speed up, and run back before sunset!"

It was not easy to get out of the battle and break through the encirclement. After some hunting, Cui Yong only had less than half of the cavalry around him.

Cui Yong knew that the current situation could no longer allow him to hesitate, and he had to go back as soon as possible, otherwise, once Zhang Ji surrounded him, these people would really sacrifice in vain.

"Da da da!"

The sound of horseshoes echoed in the sparse woods.

Holding a spear in his hand, Zhang Ji shuttled through the jungle like a dragon, constantly catching up and killing his own soldiers.

Seeing this, Cui Yong was terrified, and quickly ordered the whole army to gallop away in the direction they came from.

Zhang Ji rushed all the way, chasing all the way, he wanted to kill all the cavalry under Cui Yong.

Zhang Ji's goal is Cui Yong, how could Cui Yong just sit and wait for death?He also knew that he had to go back as soon as possible to complete the task Yang Mi gave him, otherwise he would be killed by Zhang Ji on the road, and he didn't want to die here.

After chasing and fleeing, more than ten miles passed by in a flash.

The two groups of people soon came to a small stream near the col.

The location of this creek is very good, both sides are very flat, there is not much debris in the river bed, the water surface is only submerged by horseshoes, which is suitable for cavalry ambushes.

At this time, Cui Yong saw Zhang Ji leading the army rushing towards them. He ordered his subordinates to quickly adjust their formation with their backs to the creek.

Cui Yong knew that Yang Mi's cavalry were all ready in the depression at this time, so Cui Yong put on a stance to fight.

As long as Zhang Ji dared to continue chasing and Cui Yong entangled for a while, the ambush led by Yang Mi would be able to divide and surround Zhang Ji's troops.

"A fight to the death?"

Zhang Ji looked at Cui Yong's actions and smiled coldly, but he looked at the panting horse, and at the men behind him who were only three hundred or so behind, he hesitated a little.

After all, he has an absolute advantage now, but if he continues to fight like this, Cui Yong wants to fight with his back, and he is afraid that his subordinates will suffer heavy losses by then.

Thinking of this, Zhang Ji no longer pursued, but planned to open a little distance and spread out to the other side, waiting for the morale of Cui Yong's troops to fail before making an assault.

Cui Yong saw this, but a gleam of joy flashed in his eyes.

He knew that Zhang Ji's mind had changed, and he only needed to make one move to make Zhang Ji chase across the river.

So Cui Yong quickly made the same decision, riding his horse in the opposite direction and galloping towards the other side of the river, it seemed that he wanted to get out of Zhang Ji's attack range as soon as possible.

Seeing this, Zhang Ji was secretly annoyed, but seeing Cui Yong's subordinates staggering across the river, the speed was slowed down by the cobblestones and aquatic plants in the river, so without hesitation, he ordered the whole army to pursue and cross the river.

"Da da da!"

The sound of horseshoes shattered the tranquility, and a group of cavalry quickly crossed the stream and headed straight for Cui Yong.

Cui Yong looked at Zhang Ji who was getting closer, and his heart trembled. He had just crossed the creek, and immediately gave the order to shrink the defense across the board, and defended Zhang Ji's attack with all his strength.

Not to mention attacking halfway across, at least Zhang Ji would be dragged in the middle of the river, unable to advance or retreat.

"Shhhhh!"

The arrows shot by Cui Yong's subordinates fell to the ground under the shadow of Zhang Ji's spear.

"Whoosh!"

Suddenly, a feathered arrow shot from the mountain to the side of Zhang Ji's horse. The horse suffered from pain and immediately threw Zhang Ji to the ground.

Cui Yong's eyes lit up, and sure enough, with the earth-shattering sound of horseshoes, thousands of cavalry led by Yang Mi rushed out from the hills and valleys that had been hidden for a long time.

Although the terrain on both sides of the creek is not the kind of plain that is completely suitable for cavalry to charge wantonly, but as a relatively flat area in the mountain stream without undulating terrain, it is already a rare ambush terrain.

"Let the arrows, all the arrows, all the arrows for Lao Tzu!"

Yang Mi looked at the embarrassed Zhang Ji in front of him, roared excitedly, and ordered to release the arrow.

Thousands of cavalry let go of their hands together, and thousands of feathered arrows shot out of the air, piercing into the river where Zhang Ji's three hundred cavalry were, splashing a splash of water.

Seeing this, Zhang Ji's subordinates were shocked, and quickly urged their horses to dodge the arrows.

After the rain of arrows all the way, Yang Mi saw this, but quickly ordered: "The whole army stops shooting, capture Zhang Ji alive for Lao Tzu, all move forward, and those who dare to retreat will be shot to death!"

Zhang Ji, who had just put on his soldier's mount, was trembling with Yang Mi's words, "It doesn't matter if it is shot or killed". He knew that he was completely defeated this time!
"I'm careless!"

Why did I, Zhang Ji, get on top like this, and fell into the enemy's strategy of luring the enemy to go deep!

"Whoosh!"

A feathered arrow pierced through the air and instantly hit the head of the cavalry beside him who gave way to him. The cavalry stared at his eyes and fell under Zhang Ji's saddle.

"Pfft!"

A sharp sword pierced the waist and abdomen of Cui Yong's cavalry, Zhang Ji turned the sword, and a head was thrown high, bursting in mid-air.

Zhang Ji looked forward and saw Cui Yong holding a steel knife, leading more than 40 remnants of his men, rushing towards him.

Zhang Ji's heart suddenly rose to his throat, and he could not go back. He had to break through the obstacles of Cui Yong's army, break through to the west and find a way to return.

"The whole army charges, rushes over!"

Zhang Ji ordered.

"Yes!"

Zhang Ji waved his hand, and the remaining 300 cavalrymen raised their ring-shouldered swords one after another, and rushed towards Cui Yong's troops.

The two armies collided before the creek.

The two armies fought together, and the battle was extremely fierce.

The strength of Zhang Ji and Cui Yong's two armies was very different. Under the condition of hundreds of cavalry attacking, Cui Yong's cavalry could not stop these two armies at all.

Moreover, both armies are cavalry, and they are very fast without sparing horsepower. In the blink of an eye, the two armies collided and fought together.

Zhang Ji's cavalry took the initiative at the moment when the two armies were fighting. Facing the attack from both sides, they pierced Cui Yong's troops in one fell swoop and fled in a hurry.

But the troops after the breakup were bitten by Yang Mi.

Zhang Ji watched his subordinates being killed one by one, his face was livid, he knew very well that his army might suffer heavy losses in this battle.

A cavalry rode up to Zhang Ji's side, and said to Zhang Ji while galloping.

"But general, we have lost so many brothers this time, so how can we explain to His Majesty when we go back like this?"

The cavalryman lowered his head, not daring to look at Zhang Ji, but asked in a low voice.

When Zhang Ji heard this, his heart sank.

How would the increasingly majestic emperor deal with him when he went back in such disgrace?

Zhang Ji thought of Yang Ding's head that rolled down on Fenghou's high platform when he died, and couldn't help shuddering.

For the first time, Zhang Ji began to doubt his decision. Is it really correct to lead troops from Shan County, where he stayed well, to Chang'an, and participate in this political vortex that can crush people at any time?

Regardless of whether it is correct or not, this time should not stop. Zhang Ji gritted his teeth, waved his horsewhip, and led his men to quickly break out towards the west.

Zhang Ji didn't know if he could escape, nor did he know how Liu Yi would deal with his unexpected defeat even if he escaped.

At this time, Liu Yi was taking an adventurous action in a place that no one expected.
