The Three Kingdoms: The Cold Gate World

Chapter 312 Thousands of Armies and Horses
Returning to Chang'an from Jincheng, Guo Jia was greeted by Xu Shu outside the city.

The news of Ma Chao's defection to Guo Jia had already reached Chang'an, and Xu Shu also started preparing for the personnel arrangements in the northwest counties one step ahead.

While walking towards the city, Guo Jia said to Xu Shu: "The structure of officials in various places in the Northwest can be streamlined first, as long as it does not affect administrative operations, and supplements will be made after the next spring test. Regarding the situation of grain storage in the county, my requirements are not high. At least no people will starve to death. This blind guy asked me to kill the rich and help the poor."

Xu Shu gladly accepted the order.

Just as Guo Jia walked into her mansion, she smelled a smell of medicine. It happened that Xiao Qiao came out from the backyard with a bowl of soup medicine. When she saw Guo Jia came back, Xiao Qiao smiled happily and asked, "My husband doesn't even mention it when he comes home." Someone sent a message, but the concubine didn't go to greet her, it's a sin."

Guo Jia pinched the bridge of her nose, looked down at the medicine dregs in the soup bowl, and asked with some doubts, "Who is sick?"

Xiao Qiao replied, "Sister Cai."

"Is it heavy?"

Guo Jia asked again.

Xiao Qiao gave him a consoling smile and said: "It's not serious, even if she caught the wind and cold, for some reason, in this hot day, my sister actually got the wind and cold. The doctor said that it will be cured after a few days of nursing care."

After hearing this, Guo Jia felt relieved, kissed Xiao Qiao's smooth forehead and said, "I'll go and see her."

Pushing open the door of Cai Yan's room, Guo Jia saw Wu Cheng sitting on the bed talking to Cai Yan, while Cai Yan was leaning on the bed, his face was a little pale and weak, his complexion was not too bad, it just looked distressing .

"My husband must have something to say to my sister, the concubine resigned first."

Wu Cheng left the room knowingly.

Guo Jia walked to the bed, took Cai Yan's slightly cold hand and sat down. After a long silence, he said, "Because of Ye'er?"

Cai Yan leaned forward while sitting, with his head resting on Guo Jia's shoulder, and quietly said: "He doesn't feel bad about how many bitter concubines he suffers in the military camp, but he is going to the battlefield, the sword has no eyes, life and death are unpredictable, Since he left Chang'an, my concubine has been restless every day, just in case, in case..."

Suddenly there was a cold feeling on his shoulder, Guo Jia turned his head to look, Cai Yan was lying on his shoulder and weeping, and hugged her in his arms, Guo Jia leaned down and pressed her forehead, forced a smile: "You are worried, I I'm also worried, we two are staring at each other, are we just going to worry about it every day? This path was chosen by him, you should understand better than me, and you also know better, he doesn't want me to refuse, I'm his father, you can Forcibly keep him by your side, but when the child grows up, you and I can't always let him live under the protection of his parents."

Cai Yan closed her eyes, and said softly: "These concubines understand, but so what? I feel uneasy in my heart."

The mother is worried when the son travels thousands of miles, not to mention the battlefield of life and death.

Guo Jia helped her up and turned around, put his hands on her shoulders and kneaded her.

"My daughter-in-law, just put your heart in your stomach. Children and grandchildren have their own blessings. Come, come, you are sick today. I will take care of you. If you speak lightly, if you are serious, you will cry for pain."

Cai Yan smiled through tears, and shook her head helplessly.

"It's lighter."

"Hey, it hurts..."

"You are really difficult to serve."

"That's because my husband has never served anyone before, so I don't know the severity."

Outside Zuli City
Norman stared wide-eyed, looking at the opened city gate in disbelief.

He yelled for a long time and there was no movement. As soon as his front foot returned, the city gate behind him opened.

"General, it seems that the people in the city are planning to surrender."

Dianman said through gritted teeth.

Meng Da was not optimistic. He stared at the scene after the city gate opened. Suddenly, his eyes widened. Meng Da immediately ordered: "The whole army meets the enemy! Spread out and keep the battalions apart!"

As soon as the west gate of Zuli City opened, the sound of horseshoes resounded from the city, and war horses of various colors surged out of the city gate, and ran wildly. With killing sound.

No one expected what would happen after the city gate opened!
A war broke out without warning.

There were five battalions of the new army of ten thousand, each of them spread out to help each other, forming a fan-shaped formation, but facing the Xiliang iron cavalry galloping back and forth like the wind, there was no room for retaliation.

Escape, can two legs outrun four?

In a war, ten lives may not be exchanged for one of the other party!
As soon as the two armies clashed, the infantry of the Taiping Army was defeated like a mountain, the fan formation was dispersed, and the Xiliang iron cavalry charged back and forth, without any rules, they also beat the infantry who were a head shorter than them and countless times slower than them without fighting back. Power.

Dianman ordered the soldiers of his battalion to set up their shields to block the iron cavalry.

He was the first to stand in front of the formation, with his shield facing him, but the Xiliang iron cavalry who rushed to kill him galloped on the shield, causing Dianman to fly backwards. He rolled back on the spot and got up, Dianman twisted He twisted his neck, clenched the long knife in his hand, and was furious.

The advantages and disadvantages of this infantry and cavalry are clear at a glance.

Meng Da was a conspicuous figure because he was the only one in the Taiping army on a horse.

The opponents came out in full force, Cheng Yi, Ma Wan, Yang Qiu, candidates, Li Kanwu will lock Meng Da and rush forward.

Amidst the loud sound of horseshoes and shouts, Meng Da turned a deaf ear to it and calmly observed the number of enemy troops. There may be more than [-] Xiliang iron cavalry rushing out of the city!
The infantry of the Taiping Army was decreasing sharply. Meng Da was shocked, but he also got a message.

Han Sui's main force is Zu Li!Not in Wuwei!

Turning his head to observe the battlefield, the soldiers and horses from Dianman's battalion were closest to Meng Da. Seeing Dianman holding a machete unparalleled in blocking the cavalry, Meng Da immediately galloped away.

Dianman was on the rise. Although the cavalry was fast and had the advantage of being commanding, every time he attacked the cavalry passing by from the side, he would seriously injure at least one enemy soldier.

It is difficult to resist the impact of the iron cavalry relying on the body alone, and these pawns are shorter in attack, so it is reasonable to fall into the disadvantage.

Dian Man, who was covered in the blood of the enemy army, became more and more courageous as he fought, and he became more and more experienced in shooting down horses from the side. Not far from him was his subordinate Xu Yi. They were in front, and behind the troops, It was Gan Gui and Guo Ye who ordered the soldiers to encircle as many as possible and defeat the enemy cavalry one by one.

But in this chaotic scene, the Taiping Army must have suffered more casualties.

Holding the knife in his backhand, Dianman saw an enemy soldier coming on horseback. He threw it hard and accurately knocked the enemy soldier off the horse. He ran over and his calf sank, and his knee hit the man's neck hard. All he could see was the man's head There was no sound as soon as he crooked, Dianman got up and pulled out the long knife from him, splashing a spray of blood.

As soon as he turned around to look for the next target, Dianman suddenly saw Meng Da riding his horse towards him.

"General, the casualties are too great. I can't kill so many enemy troops by myself."

Dianman is self-aware, and doesn't care if he doesn't get red-eyed.

Dianman is well aware of the surrounding situation.

If he continues to kill the enemy at this speed, I am afraid that it will not be long before all the comrades around him are dead. When he is surrounded, even the gods descending to the earth may not be able to turn the tide.

On the battlefield, there was no time to talk nonsense, Meng Da got off his horse and said, "It's too late to withdraw, but since Zu Li has a heavy enemy force, his intention may be Jincheng. Thousands of soldiers and horses under the general's command, but if they are attacked by surprise, they may fall in one day. Now you ride my horse and take your battalion back to Jincheng immediately. I will lead another battalion to Wuwei Go to warn the governor. The remaining soldiers can only delay the enemy's retreat."

Dianman was full of astonishment. He had to take this task, but he hesitated.

Abandoning his brother Paoze, he couldn't do it, even though he was going to execute the military order, not to survive alone.

Seeing that he didn't answer, Meng Da slapped him angrily. Seeing his dull look, he grabbed his collar, gritted his teeth and said solemnly: "Dianman, listen carefully, get on the horse quickly. Jincheng reported that if Jincheng is lost, the [-] soldiers and horses in front of the governor will have no way out! You are a sinner!"

Dian Man gritted his teeth and let out a stern growl. He broke away from Meng Da's hand and got on his horse. Then he said to the soldiers beside him, "Listen to the order, grab the enemy's horse, and follow me back to Jincheng!"

The infantry led by Xu Yi not far away from him began to snatch the enemy's war horse, and after riding on it, they chased Dianman away.

Just as Xu Yi rode his horse for a while, he happened to pass by the battlefield where Guo Ye and Gan Gui were. Xu Yi immediately rode up to Guo Ye and said, "Young Master Ye, get on your horse!"

Just when he was about to get off his horse, the war horse under his crotch neighed and galloped away.

Gan Gui looked at Guo Ye in disbelief.

Xu Yi who looked back immediately was also full of astonishment.

"Fourth brother, don't look back!"

Guo Ye beat Xu Yi's horse with the back of his knife, but now he gave Xu Yi a warning.

Xu Yi, who had already run a distance, had no choice but to grit her teeth and chase after Dianman.

At this time, the infantry of the Xiliang Army in Zuli City had also been dispatched, and the battlefield was in chaos.

Guo Ye and Gan Gui were back to back, Guo Ye's eyes were ruthless, and he regarded death as home.

"Xiao Jiu, if you were still alive before I was captured and you happen to have a knife in your hand, then kill me."

Guo Ye said in a very indifferent tone.

Gan Gui, who was leaning against him, gritted her teeth and agreed.

Even death cannot leave a stain on life.

"Fifth brother, if you die, I will accompany you."

Gan Gui slashed a knife and knocked down a Xiliang soldier who rushed forward, her tone was firm without any hesitation.

Guo Ye smiled generously.

"Okay, we can't live together, but we want to die together!"

These young people became brothers with different surnames when they were very young, Qin Ming, Xi Jian, Dian Man, Xu Yi, Guo Ye, Zhang Hu, Zhang Fang, Zhen Hua, Gan Gui, Fa Miao.

They are congenial and determined to follow the same path as their elders since childhood.

But today, Gan Gui and Guo Ye, who have just escaped from the protection of their parents, are in a desperate situation.

In the midst of thousands of troops, two young figures sprinkled extremely shining male blood.
