The Jagged Cavalry of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 143 Chapter 143 Surrounded
Zhang Yan let out a hysterical cry, and rushed forward together with Tai Shici, Xu Chu and others.

Directly ahead, Dian Wei led hundreds of strong men to block the main road, and the crossbowmen on both sides kept shooting. Cao Jun swept Zhang Yan and others like a gun.

The neighing of war horses, the screams of soldiers, the cries of unyielding, and the swishing of arrows were all mixed together at this moment, and there was a lot of people's voices.

Zhang Yan took the lead, followed by Tai Shici and Xu Chu. More than 1000 cavalry behind him were shot down by arrows. Before they could reach Dianwei, there were only [-] or [-] cavalry left, which was a heavy loss.

At the same time, Xia Houyuan, Cao Hong, and Li Dian rushed to support after beheading Lv Bu's subordinates. Cao's army gathered more and more, and Zhang Yan and others were surrounded by water.

Zhang Yan rushed forward while paying attention to the surrounding situation. When he saw that he was already surrounded, he became more and more anxious in his heart. He just wanted to break a bloody road as soon as possible and leave this place.

Seeing that they were about to rush in front of Dian Wei and the others, who would have thought that a row of giant shield soldiers would suddenly appear and block in front of Dian Wei and the others, and those who cooperated with them were men holding spears Soldiers, they put their spears in the gaps of the giant shield, instantly forming a defensive wall, the purpose of which was to prevent Zhang Yan from rushing over.

The spears were like a forest, and the arrows were like rain. The situation became more and more unfavorable to Zhang Yan and others. Seeing this, Tai Shici took up his bow and arrows, and shot forward one after another. Everything falls in response to the string, and the example is not in vain.

But there are very few people with Taishici's arrow skills, not to mention Cao's soldiers are as numerous as cow hair, one was shot to death by Taishici, and another came up, still blocking the road to death.

Zhang Yan frowned tightly, seeing such a scene, he could only fight recklessly.

He plucked up his courage, led Tai Shici, Xu Chu and the others and rushed over directly. When he was about to approach, he waved his spear and swept away the forest of spears in front of him. With the help of the impact of the horse, he directly hit Cao Bing on the giant shield.

"Kara!"

Zhang Yan vaguely heard a crisp sound in his ears, Cao Bing holding the huge shield suffered a violent impact, even the shield and the people fell backwards, and even the arm holding the huge shield was broken.

With a sound of "boom", Zhang Yan suddenly broke away from a giant shield, and the horse under his seat trampled directly on the fallen Cao soldier, spitting blood from the Cao soldier trampled directly on the ground, screamed, and died.

Seeing that Zhang Yan was the first to break through the huge shield, Cao Bing's spearmen were all startled, and hurriedly raised their spears to stab. The stabbed spear was caught under his armpit, and he held the gun with one hand, and stabbed several Cao soldiers beside him to death one after another.

At the same time, Tai Shici, Xu Chu and others charged over one after another. They all followed Zhang Yan's example. They first used their weapons to push aside their spears, and then borrowed their horses to charge them away. Under the horse's hooves, death or injury.

Xu Chu swung his sharp sword and cut off spears one after another. His continuous sword skills emerged one after another. Surrounded by Cao Bing, he randomly harvested Cao Bing's heads.

But Tai Shici charged left and right with a long spear, stabbing many Cao soldiers to death one after another. He and Xu Chu followed closely behind Zhang Yan.

The cavalry behind Zhang Yan also showed incomparable bravery at this moment. They didn't have any fear, and the more they fought, the more courageous they became. There were 900 people, and they disturbed more than 1000 people here.

Dian Wei, who was defending this place, saw Zhang Yan and others' attack so fiercely, couldn't bear it anymore, waved the double iron halberds in his hand, and rushed towards Zhang Yan.

Zhang Yan was in the middle of the fight, when he suddenly saw Dian Wei coming straight towards him with a vicious expression on his face, he couldn't help being startled.

He had fought against Dian Wei several times, knew Dian Wei's strength, and knew that he was no match for him. Seeing Dian Wei coming towards him, he shouted behind him without hesitation: "Zhongkang!"

When Xu Chu was slashing, he heard Zhang Yan's cry, looked up and saw Dian Wei rushing over, he understood, and immediately said to Tai Shi kindly: "Protect the lord to break through, I will deal with Dian Wei." !"

Normally, Tai Shici would have fought with Xu Chu to fight Dian Wei, but at this time he was surrounded, and he understood the urgency of the matter, so he nodded lightly, rode his horse close to Zhang Yan, and fought with Zhang Yan. Yan fought side by side.

Xu Chu rode forward and shouted at Dian Wei: "Dian Wei, we didn't decide the winner last time, let's compete this time!"

Dian Wei's target was Zhang Yan, and Cao Cao put him here to kill Zhang Yan.But Xu Chu's appearance destroyed his purpose. If he didn't kill Xu Chu first, he would have no chance to attack Zhang Yan.

Dian Wei looked around, but saw Xia Houyuan leading the cavalry coming from behind the Xuzhou soldiers, Cao Hong and Li Dian also rushed over from the left and right flanks. Xu Chu said: "Wild man, today I will convince you to lose!"

As soon as the words fell, Dian Wei and Xu Chu confronted each other, raising their knives and halberds at the same time, and they fought together in an instant.

"My lord, Xia Houyuan, Cao Hong, and Li Dian have all rushed over here. If our army can't break through as soon as possible, I'm afraid the whole army will be wiped out here. Please follow me, my lord, and I will fight a bloody path for my lord! " Taishi said kindly.

Zhang Yan nodded and gathered [-] elite cavalry around him, while Tai Shici led [-] cavalry to the front and rushed towards one direction together.

Tai Shici took the lead and took the lead. Wherever the spear went, no one could stop Cao's soldiers. Cao's soldiers were killed or wounded, and directly killed a bloody road.

Zhang Yan led the cavalry to follow Tai Shici's back, and rushed out along the bloody road. Seeing that he was about to break out of the encirclement, Cao Hong led a small number of cavalry to come on horseback, directly blocking Tai Shici's front .

Li Dian led the crossbowmen to arrive in time, and immediately ordered the crossbowmen to shoot towards Zhang Yan, but turned a blind eye to the Cao soldiers who were sandwiched between Xuzhou soldiers.

Cao Hong brandished his sword, trembling with Tai Shici, and behind Zhang Yan, Xia Houyuan also caught up. Zhang Yan looked left and right, saw that Cao Bing was encircling more and more, and his subordinates were getting fewer and fewer. He thought to himself: "Am I going to die here?"

Cao Cao, who was standing on the high hill, smiled happily when he saw such a scene. He only needs another quarter of an hour, and he can completely surround Zhang Yan here.At the same time, he also appreciated Xun You's strategy of killing two birds with one stone very much, and planned to reward Xun You heavily after victory.

Suddenly, there was a rush of hoofbeats from behind Cao Cao, and a group of cavalry came from behind, and the leader was Zhang Liao.

Zhang Liao rode a war horse and took the lead, leading a hundred cavalrymen, and rushed towards Gaogang where Cao Cao was located.And behind Zhang Liao, followed by hundreds of infantry.

At the same time, an enemy army appeared behind Cao Hong. The leader was Gao Shun. Although he led only a few hundred infantry, he ran like flying.Behind Gao Shun, the Xuzhou soldiers commanded by Xu Sheng followed closely, and there were more than a thousand soldiers as far as the eye could see.

Immediately afterwards, Niu Jin led the army and appeared behind Li Dian.

Before Cao Cao could issue an order, he saw that the cavalry led by Zhang Liao was about to rush to the high hill where he was. He used all his troops to surround Zhang Yan and others, and there were no generals around to guard him. Zhang Liao's martial arts skills, It was also witnessed by Cao Cao. Although there were only Baiqi, it was difficult for him to resist.

So Cao Cao immediately led Xun You, Guo Jia, and Cheng Yu down Gaogang, and summoned hundreds of infantry to resist Zhang Liao, while he fled in embarrassment.

Gao Shun, Xu Sheng, Niu Jin and others appeared one after another, attacked Cao Jun's back together, and launched a fierce attack on Cao Jun.Cao Jun was in chaos immediately, and Zhang Yan, Tai Shici, Xu Chu and others were still fighting to the death in the encirclement. Cao Jun was attacked by the enemy, and it was difficult to resist for a while.

Seeing that his reinforcements had arrived, Zhang Yan was overjoyed, and immediately encouraged the soldiers to charge forward bravely.

Gao Shun led the trapped camp like a sharp knife, directly piercing in from Cao Jun's back, and Cao Jun was invincible.

Cao Hong, who was fighting with Tai Shici, saw that the situation was not good, and immediately turned his horse's head and fled in embarrassment.

Tai Shici didn't chase after him, but took out his bow and arrow, and shot an arrow at Cao Hong.

Cao Hong felt a sharp force coming from behind, and when he looked back, it turned out to be a feathered arrow, and it was so close that it would be very difficult to avoid it.

At this critical moment, a personal soldier came suddenly on horseback and blocked an arrow for Cao Hong. Cao Hong was lucky to survive, and galloped on horseback, escaping even faster.

Niu Jin came to kill Li Dian from behind. Li Dian led the archers and attacked with arrows, but was blocked by Niu Jin and others, with little effect, so he had no choice but to retreat.

Zhang Liao led the cavalry to break through Cao Bing's defense line, and directly pursued Cao Cao, intending to put Cao Cao to death.

Seeing this, Xia Houyuan hurriedly led troops to help, and intercepted Zhang Liao, and Cao Cao escaped safely.

Although the ambush did not kill Zhang Yan, it also severely injured Zhang Yan. Cao Cao then ordered the withdrawal of troops to avoid further losses.

When Cao Jun heard the order to withdraw his troops, they fled one after another. Dian Wei, who was fighting Xu Chu, did not dare to fight, so he had to flee in a hurry.

After Cao Jun escaped, Zhang Yan did not order to pursue him, for fear of being ambushed by Cao Cao again.

After the group got together again, Gao Shun and Zhang Liao didn't see Lu Bu, so they asked, "Zhang Andong, where is my lord?"

Zhang Yan hurriedly said: "We fell into Cao Cao's trick. Brother Fengxian charged too hard, and ended up in an ambush, and was pierced by Cao Jun's ten thousand arrows..."

When Gao Shun and Zhang Liao heard this, they both had sad expressions on their faces, and asked hastily, "Where is my lord's body?"
