Emperor Road of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 138 Forced into a corner
The weather has been fine and sunny for several days in a row. Although the snow in the mountains and forests has not yet melted, the snow on the official roads has basically melted, especially those places facing the sun.

At this time, it was already sunset, and the bitter cold wind pierced directly into the human body, stinging like needles.However, although the cold wind was bitter, it couldn't do anything to Liu Yu, Xia Houlan and others.Even Xu Chu couldn't do anything about it, even though Xu Chu's injury was not healed, he didn't care about the howling cold wind.

They set up a simple camp next to a hill on the left side of the official road.At this time, they lit fires here and there, and each of them was rolling and roasting fat hares in their hands.

"My lord, I didn't meet Zhang Rong and the others on this journey. Could it be that something happened to them?" Xia Houlan said worriedly after taking a bite of the barbecue.

Liu Yu chewed the rabbit meat in his mouth, and then took another sip of water before replying: "Bogu, don't worry. When they left, there was basically no snow on the road, so they walked fast, probably now We have already arrived at Yingyang. However, we were dragged down by the snow all the way, so we couldn't march faster, so we couldn't catch up with them. Now that the snow has melted, it is estimated that we will be able to catch up with them after a while."

Saying so, he took another bite of the roasted rabbit, chewing it delicately.Suddenly, his mouth stopped, and his whole body was like a cat with fried fur.

"Don't move, there is a situation." Instantly returned to normal, Liu Yu continued to chew the meat in his mouth, but whispered to everyone.

Then, he lowered his head, as if he was in the fire, but he was actually looking around.Not only he was patrolling, Xia Houlan, Zhou Cang and Xu Chu who were reminded by him were also patrolling around vigilantly.

After a while, when they patrolled the woods on the side of the official road behind, everyone couldn't help but stare.But it was only a condensate, and it returned to normal in an instant.

"Damn it, Cao Jun has caught up!" Liu Yu cursed in a low voice with disbelief in his eyes.

Everyone didn't answer, but they were all a little surprised, but more dignified.Xia Houlan glanced again, and asked in a low voice, "My lord, what should we do?"

"The other party didn't attack immediately, so let's not act rashly." Liu Yu pondered for a moment, then replied in a low voice, "When it gets dark, we will run away immediately. But we must not take it lightly, we must monitor them all the time. In addition, inform the soldiers Guys, remember not to show your feet."

If it was an ordinary soldier, Liu Yu would naturally not notify, otherwise he would be sure to reveal his secrets as soon as he was notified.However, these personal guards of his are not simple. I believe that even if they know that the enemy is close in front of them, they will not show any panic.Therefore, Liu Yu told them this, so that they could be prepared.

Sure enough, except for some people who couldn't help but glance at the beginning, the whole guard was almost the same as when they didn't know the situation.Those who chatted among them still chatted, and those who ate still ate... This is the elite, and it is not comparable to ordinary soldiers.

Slowly, as the sun set in the west, the large expanse of blood-red setting sun gradually faded away, and finally only the western mountain still had some residual glow.The other places were shrouded in darkness, and there was no other sound except for the howling cold wind that was raging even more.Not to mention the roar of beasts, even the sound of insects.

This is winter, dead winter!
In Liu Yu's camp, the weak flames in the fire swayed with the wind, as if they would go out at any moment.The reflected figures of the soldiers beside the fire also swayed with the flames, looking like shadowy ghosts.

At this time, the soldiers stopped talking and stroked the long sword in their hands silently.They know that a big war is inevitable, and this big war is very likely to ruin them.

Liu Yu, Xia Houlan and the others did not speak, but sat by the fire in silence.Xia Houlan was fiddling with the fire, Zhou Cang was sipping water, and Xu Chu was gently wiping his sword.

After a while, the night became darker, the cold wind howled louder, and everyone's breathing became lighter...

"Get on the horse!"

The moment the fire was extinguished, and the moment Cao Jun was about to draw his bow, Liu Yu let out a beast-like roar.At the same time, not only he himself jumped on the horse, but others also jumped on the horse.

They didn't show any mercy to the horse, and directly slapped the horse's buttocks with the face of their knives, which turned red.Of course, the war horse neighed and galloped forward.

Seeing this scene, Cao Hong, who ordered the archers in a low voice to draw the bow cautiously, trembled all over his body, and even flushed with anger.When he saw Liu Yu running away, he naturally knew that the other party had discovered him a long time ago.As for himself, he was still foolishly cautious, even talking in the ears of others.

Anger, burning with anger!

He felt that he was being tricked. He looked at Liu Yu who was looking back, and felt that the other party was laughing at him.Even the eyes of the guards beside him looking at him, waiting for his order, he felt ironic.

"Chasing, chase me!" He hit the horse with a whip, and his whole body was like an angry lion, roaring violently.

How dare the Cao soldiers disobey Cao Hong's order, they rushed towards Liu Yu and the others one after another, for fear of being mistaken by Cao Hong for not doing anything.At the same time, the archers continued to harass them with arrows while chasing them.

Although their arrows rarely hit Liu Yu's people, the dense arrows slowed down Liu Yu and others' speed.In addition, they were very close to Cao Jun, and the cavalry who followed Cao Hong were unformed tiger and leopard cavalry.

Therefore, after you chased me and fled for a while, Liu Yu and his three hundred guards were finally overtaken and surrounded by five hundred tiger and leopard riders.

"Everyone, it seems that this battle is inevitable!" Liu Yu pulled the horse rope, stopped the horse, and smiled boldly.

Xia Houlan and the others surrounded Liu Yu and laughed heartily.

"Young master, let's fight!"

Seeing that everyone was full of pride, Liu Yu couldn't help showing a smile, but he still said solemnly: "Don't fall in love with fighting, or you will be entangled by them. When Cao's army comes, I'm afraid we won't be able to leave!"

As soon as the words fell, the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry rushed over without saying a word.They were all in black armor, and their faces were indifferent like black armor.Holding black iron spears in their hands, they slammed into Liu Yu and the others fiercely.

Liu Yu didn't know that this cavalry was the famous tiger and leopard cavalry, but he also saw that this cavalry was extraordinary.However, he has confidence in his personal guards and believes that his personal guards can deal with this cavalry.But his personal guards were even more arrogant, and they didn't take this cavalry seriously.

But when they fought, both Liu Yu and his personal guards showed expressions of shock.They were shocked by this cavalry, they never imagined that Cao Cao had such cavalry, indifferent, devouring, fearless...

What made Liu Yu's face change even more was that they were actually entangled by this cavalry.Although Liu Yu had already killed dozens of tiger and leopard riders, and even though his personal guards resisted these tiger and leopard riders, they were eventually entangled by these tiger and leopard riders.

And Cao Jun, more than five thousand Cao Jun, had already surrounded Cao Hong.

Liu Yu had already heard Cao Cao's orderly footsteps, the sound of their armor colliding, and Cao Hong's ferocious laughter...

"Liu Yu, this place is your burial place, and today is your memorial day!"
