The Three Kingdoms Fight for the Deer

Chapter 60
"Hmph, shameless boy Zhao Yun, it's abominable to run away every time you can't beat him." Seeing that he was about to be unable to catch up with Zhao Yun, Zhang Kai had no choice but to lead his troops back.

At this moment, Zhang Kai noticed that Zhao Yun had turned his head back. The cavalry under his command had fled around just now, but now they returned to the formation in an orderly manner, and they were lined up in just a short while.

"Listen to the orders, charge!" Zhao Yun took the lead and led the cavalry to charge, "Kill!"

"Okay, I'm afraid you won't come, so kill me!" Zhang Kai was overjoyed. Although he didn't know why Zhao Yun came back suddenly, after these three days of fighting, he knew clearly that Zhao Yun was definitely not his opponent, so he led his troops. The horse killed Zhao Yun.

The two forces collided fiercely, but Zhang Kai's army was instantly crushed by Zhao Yun's cavalry, and Zhang Kai was pierced through the chest by Zhao Yun. I am afraid that until the moment of his death, he did not understand what happened to Zhao Yun, who was far inferior to him. It suddenly became so powerful that he couldn't even take a shot.

Zhao Yun had no expression on his face, and was not complacent about killing Zhang Kai. He led his soldiers to charge back and forth to assassinate Zhang Kai. Zhang Kai's [-]-strong army collapsed in less than a cup of tea. They chased Zhao Yun the first three times, and now it's their turn. It was not until Zhao Yun pursued them that they realized the power of the cavalry.

Four thousand cavalrymen ruthlessly crushed Zhang Kai's five thousand troops like a torrent of iron and blood. Because Zhang Kai was dead, the soldiers under his command fled around like headless chickens, unable to organize effective resistance at all. Lose faster and faster.

Finally, Zhang Kai's army completely collapsed. Facing the iron-blooded and ruthless cavalry, they could not resist at all. The only way to survive was to escape. Thousands of troops fled towards Xiapi City one after another. Can run faster.

Zhao Yun was not in a hurry, he chased and killed at the same time, he always let the enemy flee for a while before chasing and charging, as if he wanted to play slowly, anyway, infantry could never match the speed of cavalry.

The cavalry under Zhao Yun's command were also very depressed these three days. Zhao Yun used a bluff to lose to Zhang Kai for three consecutive days, and his cavalry also pretended to escape, which really made everyone very depressed. tone.

A soldier walked up to Zhao Yun and asked, "General Zhao, why don't we just charge and kill the enemy, but beat them and let them go, and then chase after them, beat them again and let them go?"

Zhao Yun didn't ignore the soldier because of his low status, but he answered seriously: "I lost to Zhang Kai for three days in a row. The reason is to let him take the credit and be proud, and lure him away from Xiapi, so that I can catch him by surprise. The horse was defeated. Secondly, my intention was not to defeat Zhang Kai, but to capture Xiapi. The city of Xiapi is high and thick. If we attack our soldiers by force, we will lose a lot. This is the next strategy, so I deliberately let the enemy go. Going back to the city, when they rush back to Xiapi, there will be chaos, and when the city gate is opened, we will kill them in one fell swoop."

"Then why did you lose to Zhang Kai three times in a row? In fact, I think losing twice in a row is enough. If you lose three times in a row, it may be self-defeating, and a false defeat will become a real defeat." The soldier expressed his point of view.

"You don't know, according to what I just said, although I can attack Xiapi, there are at least 1 soldiers and horses in the city of Xiapi, and my thousands of cavalry alone are not enough to completely control them, so I deliberately defeated them for three days. The purpose is to wait for the arrival of the lord’s army. Three days ago, I sent a quick horse to know the lord, and just now I came back from the scouting horse to report that the lord has arrived near Xiapi, and I can cooperate with me to attack the city in a while.” Zhao Yun continued patiently Explain to the soldier.

"Thank you, General Zhao, for your guidance." The soldier suddenly realized just now, if Zhao Yun hadn't explained it patiently, he really couldn't figure it out.

It was also the first time Zhao Yun saw a soldier ask such a question, and he couldn't help asking, "What's your name?"

"My name is Li Tong, I'm Wenda, and I'm from Pingchun, Jiangxia."

"You will be my lieutenant general in the future. If there is anything you don't understand, you can ask me." Zhao Yun felt that Li Tong was a talented person, so he decided to promote him to be a lieutenant general and cultivate him well in the future.

Hearing this, Li Tong was overjoyed, and quickly clasped his fists in gratitude, "Thank you, General Zhao."

Although there is no shortage of people under Li Yuan's staff now, with the continuous expansion of power, more talents will be needed in the future, so Zhao Yun intends to cultivate more talents for Li Yuan.

After resting for a while, Zhao Yun rectified his troops and horses and pursued again. This time, instead of releasing water, he directly attacked Xiapi City in one breath.Everything went as Zhao Yun expected, Zhang Kai's defeated army was killed so that he threw up his helmet and armor, and he just wanted to escape back to the city, but because there were no generals to support the formation, it was extremely chaotic when he fled.

Tao Qian and the others on the city wall saw their soldiers and horses defeated and returned without understanding what was going on. Zhang Kai won the battle for several days in a row, and the sudden defeat made them unacceptable.

"What's going on here? What's going on? Why did Zhang Kai return after being defeated? Didn't he go out to chase after Zhao Yun? Why did he lose instead of Zhao Yun?" Tao Qian asked several questions in a row. Looking at the defeated soldiers under the city in disbelief, these soldiers and horses were all "strong soldiers" who defeated Zhao Yun two days ago, but now they have been killed to the point of throwing away their helmets and armor, thinking that the change of painting style is too fast. .

"My lord, I'm afraid that Zhang Kai was caught by Zhao Yun's trick of deceitful defeat, so he was killed by surprise. Zhao Yun lost three days in a row to arouse Zhang Kai's pride. Now that Zhang Kai is nowhere to be seen, it may be a disaster." Chen Deng immediately wanted to understand the reason. Zhao Yun is a well-known general, how could he be so incompetent and lose three times in a row, there is indeed a fraud in it.

"Open the door, open the door quickly and let me wait in!" Seeing Zhao Yun's cavalry getting closer and closer, the soldiers below the city couldn't help urging the soldiers on the city wall.

"Yes, that's right, the city gate must be opened quickly to let them in." Tao Qian quickly ordered to open the city gate.

However, Chen Gui stopped him and said, "My lord, don't open the city gate, or you will fall into the trap of Zhao Yun."

"What trick? Han Yu, what do you mean by that?" Tao Qian asked puzzled.

"If you use the speed of the cavalry, you will be able to catch up with our army easily. However, Zhao Yun's soldiers and horses just came here now. I'm afraid he just wanted to drive our soldiers back to the city, and then suddenly attacked in the chaos. You must know the speed of the cavalry. It can be said to be very fast, as long as our city gate is opened, he will be able to rush in in a short time, and the people in the city will suffer."

Chen Gui was really powerful, he could see through Zhao Yun's strategy at a glance, his vision was indeed vicious, even the current Chen Deng was not as good as his father.After listening to it, Chen Deng thought about it carefully, and felt that what Chen Gui said was indeed reasonable, so he also followed Tao Qian to dissuade Tao Qian from opening the city.

"This... I'm afraid it's not appropriate." Tao Qian was very conflicted in his heart. Although what Chen Gui said was reasonable, the thousands of soldiers under the city were his own soldiers and horses. abandoned.

Just when Tao Qian was hesitating, Zhao Yun's cavalry had already arrived and killed Tao Qian's soldiers and horses.

"Your uncle, the soldiers above quickly open the door for me, don't you see that the enemy army has already killed you, you have a father and no mother, do you want to watch me be killed by the enemy army?" !!!”

Seeing that the soldiers on the city didn't open the door, the soldiers below couldn't help yelling, cursing and even crying, because Zhao Yun's cavalry was so fierce, I wanted to organize resistance, but under the impact of the iron cavalry, any counterattack hesitated like a piece of paper Fragile and does not work at all.

At this time Xiapi city was already in chaos, crying and cursing and shouting and killing could be heard, Tao Qian couldn't bear to watch it, he was always a soft-hearted person, how could he bear to see his soldiers and horses slaughtered by Zhao Yun, so he immediately ordered Open the city gate.

"My lord, it's a pity to abandon thousands of soldiers and horses outside the city, but you have to know that there are hundreds of thousands of people in the city, and if Zhao Yun is allowed to attack Xiapi, then Li Yuan's troops can be directed at Xuzhou In the hinterland, we will lose the whole of Xuzhou at that time, so how can the lord lose a lot for a small thing!" Chen Gui hurriedly hugged Tao Qian to stop him.

"Well, even though I know this, the people inside the city are my people, and the soldiers outside the city are also my people. No matter who I lose, I will be heartbroken. How can I treat them differently? Don't wait any longer to persuade me. It's decided," Tao Qian ignored Chen Gui and his son, and immediately ordered the opening of the city!
Seeing this, Chen Gui couldn't help but looked up to the sky and sighed, "Oh, it's over, my Xuzhou is going to be over!"
