Chapter 104 ?? Chasing Cao Cao
Then Xia Mou was stunned.
It was even said that Zhang Xiu didn't need it. The two or three thousand infantry under Xu Rong's command had done most of the matter.
The Eight Captains of Xiyuan were established in August, and it has not been more than two months. Xia Mou's troops are still the elite among the Eight Captains of Xiyuan, but they are just a mob.
On the contrary, Liangzhou soldiers followed Dong Zhuo to get up from the pile of dead people in Liangzhou. Can they be the same?
Furthermore, General Zhang Xiu and General Zhang Xiu will be rewarded. Liangzhou soldiers are convinced by Zhang Xiu. With Zhang Xiu's support, they can be very morale.
"kill!!!!!!"
As usual, the archers shot arrows first. Although there were shield soldiers in front of them, the bow and arrow fell in an arc, which still caused certain damage to both sides.
In this regard, the damage caused by Liangzhou soldiers and Xia Mou army is the same. After all, archers can only shoot arrows.
"kill!!!!"
When the two armies met, it was like a tiger and a rabbit meeting. The fierce Liangzhou sword and shield soldiers swung their swords forward, and one of them died from ten, but the Xia Mou soldiers, at least four or five died from ten, and two or three were injured.
"kill!!!"
The spear soldiers in the rear took the opportunity to cover up and killed them. They cooperated very well. The spears were like forests and the cold light was ashamed of stars. Rows of assassinating the soldiers of Xia Mou's army and falling down.
"Ahhhhh!!!"
In the blink of an eye, the Xia Mou army, whether it was the shield soldiers or the spear soldiers, screaming in rows and falling into a pool of blood. Without Zhang Xiu charging into the battle, the Liangzhou soldiers used the spear formation to kill Xia Mou.
This is the city, with houses on the left and right. In front are fierce Liangzhou soldiers and in the back are their own troops. Xia Mou cannot stand in front, retreat, on the left, or on the right. He can only look at the spear formation in front, sweating coldly.
"Puff."
Zhang Xiu put down the bow and arrow in his hand, but saw several Liangzhou soldiers in the front row stabbing Xia Mou, then rushed forward and cut off Xia Mou's head.
These Liangzhou soldiers may be from the same corps. After cutting off the heads, they did not fight for them and handed them over to an elderly soldier. The other soldiers were a little ready to move, but they did not move in the end.
Zhang Xiu nodded secretly. In terms of his ability to lead troops, Xu Rong is a top-notch in the entire Dong Zhuo Group.
"Follow me." After Zhang Xiu put down his bow and arrow, he retrieved the big gun from his personal soldiers, rode his horse first, and headed towards Yuan Shao and Cao Cao.
On the other hand, Zhang Xiu's five thousand elite cavalry successfully broke through Chunyu Qiong's formation, and Xu Rong also led his troops to defeat Zhao Rong and Feng Fang.
When the news reached Yuan Shao, Cao Cao's ears, both of them looked as if they were ashen.
"Today, the soldiers in Liangzhou are fierce." Yuan Sha sighed and said.
"Don't be discouraged at first. Although the front line was defeated, we still have more than 10,000 elite soldiers. At this moment, we should be inciting the commanding soldiers to fight to the death. Even if we can't do it, Ding Yuan outside the city is also a strong soldier in Bingzhou." After Cao Cao said this, he raised his long halberd and planned to rush.
Cao Cao started his career as a commander, good at riding and shooting, and could make big spears. Although he was not a brave general, he was also good at martial arts. At this moment, he did not think much about it, so he planned to lead his troops to help Zhao Rong and Feng Fang fight Xu Rong together.
"Meng De's courage is commendable. But he stayed with the green mountains and was not afraid of burning firewood. Today's things are no longer possible. I plan to go to Guandong and get involved in the righteous soldiers. Meng De takes care of it." Yuan Shao first praised Cao Cao, and then simply led five hundred light cavalry, abandoned the army, and headed east.
The slogan was really loud, and the first one escaped.
Cao Cao was stunned for a moment, and he never expected Yuan Shao to be like this. Then he was not a fool. After his face was blue for a while, he also led more than a hundred light cavalry in the headquarters to the east.
If Yuan Shao was present, he would still have the confidence to fight in blood. But if Yuan Shao escaped, he would definitely not be able to win.
"Yuan Shao, it turns out you are such a person." Cao Cao gritted his teeth and finally saw this childhood playmate clearly.
Cao Cao and Yuan Shao abandoned their troops and left. The men under his command were stunned and then stood at a loss on the street, messy in the wind.
When Zhang Xiu led his troops to fight, he saw this look. After understanding the situation, he was stunned and then had to sigh.
"Yuan Shao, Cao Cao is indeed smooth."
Afterwards, Zhang Xiu did not hesitate, but gave in to the infantry army to maintain order here, leading Dian Wei and more than a hundred personal soldiers to chase the city east.
If you can win two people, it is more powerful than a state, so why not to pacify the world?
As for whether there would be any later Cao Cao and Yuan Shao gathered the Yi soldiers to attack Dong Zhuo, Zhang Xiu couldn't control it anymore, so he killed the two of them first.
Zhang Xiu and Dian Wei rode the horse eastward, but Yuan Shao and Cao Cao were not good at fighting at this moment, but they were so quick that they didn't catch up even after leaving the city gate.
Zhang Xiu was unwilling to give up and stopped to look at the traces on the ground. Yuan Shao and Cao Cao immediately parted ways after leaving the city gate.
One is heading straight to the east, and the other is heading northwest.
Zhang Xiu thought for a while and probably it was Cao Cao who rushed out. In history, Cao Cao raised an army in the Central Plains, and Yuan Shao was in Hebei.
"Brother Dian is going to chase this team of people, I will chase another team. No matter whether I encounter Yuan Shao or Cao Cao, don't talk to them. Just chop it with a halberd." Zhang Xiu turned his head and said to Dian Wei, then clamped his horse's belly with his feet, led half of the light cavalry to chase eastward.
Dian Wei was responsible for protecting Zhang Xiu's safety. Seeing that Zhang Xiu had led half of his troops to chase him, he was a little uneasy. But he obeyed the order, so he gritted his teeth and led half of the light cavalry to chase northwest.
...........
"Damn Yuan Shao." After Cao Cao led more than a hundred light cavalry to escape from the East City Gate, the more he thought about it, the more he became cowardly, the more he thought about it, the more he became, the more he became, the more he was invisible, and he scolded Yuan Shao half to death.
After walking for about twenty miles, Cao Cao felt thirsty and felt that he had gone so far that no one should have chased him. He ordered: "Drop off the horse and rest for a while."
"No." The light cavalry responded to the promise, and then some personal soldiers brought a Hu bench to ask Cao Cao to sit down. Some personal soldiers fetched the water bag for Cao Cao.
Cao Cao had just sat down and had only had time to drink three sips of water.
Then the cavalry changed his expression, and then lay on the ground and listened for a while, and said anxiously: "Sir, there are pursuers."
"I have escaped for twenty or thirty miles, but I haven't let me go." Cao Cao's expression changed, and he quickly stood up and turned over and led the light cavalry to continue to go east.
The horse galloped for about ten miles, but the pursuers behind were not only not thrown away, but instead got closer.
While Cao Cao was speeding, he turned his head and looked back and said loudly, "Who is chasing me? I am Cao Cao, the son of the Taiwei, and my family is rich. If you don't chase me, I will definitely be rich and honored."
Zhang Xiu was overjoyed and thought, it was indeed Cao Cao.
If so, he wanted to kill two birds with one stone. But if he chose one, of course Cao Cao would choose.
"It turns out that Captain Cao. I am the army captain Li Shuang under Dong Zhuo. Dong Zhuo is cruel and unkind. I think he will be defeated sooner or later. Since Captain Cao treats me well, please ask Captain Cao and so on, let's go together." Zhang Xiu also used a trick and shouted in disguise.
"If you believe in you, there will be ghosts." Cao Cao was a suspicious person and did not believe Zhang Xiu's nonsense. Then he changed his mind and had an idea. He took out a knife and cut a cowhide bag behind the horse. Suddenly, a lot of gold inside rolled out and landed on the ground.
The golden gold shines.
Cao Cao looked back and thought to himself. "Although the Liangzhou soldiers fought fiercely, their military discipline was corrupt. They would definitely grab gold, so I can take the opportunity to escape."
When Cao Cao saw this, his eyes widened and his eyes were about to break. He saw that the chasing horse behind him did not blink, and the horse stepped on gold, still chasing him.
"This group of cavalry soldiers has a great military discipline. The leader must be a big shot, and he is definitely not a military officer!!!" Cao Cao's heart trembled, and he even disbelief of Zhang Xiu's words and rode his horse away.
However, their horses were fast, but their riding skills were not as good as those of Zhang Xiu and other Liangzhou soldiers, and gradually they still narrowed the distance between the two sides.
"Swoosh swosh swosh swosh!!!" Both sides began to bend their bows and shoot arrows, but because the distance was too far, the arrows had no lethality. Only the bowstrings were shaken, and no one turned over and fell off the horse.
Cao Cao felt that the situation was wrong, so he gritted his teeth and said to the person on the left: "Zhang Xiu, how should I treat you?"
"Grate is as heavy as a mountain." The knight named Zhang Xiu moved his heart and replied decisively.
"Maybe ten light cavalrymen were led to break the rear?" Cao Cao said gritting his teeth.
"No." Zhang Xiu's eyes didn't blink, and immediately led ten light cavalrymen to break the rear. Zhang Xiu made a big gun and shouted: "I am Zhang Xiu, a native of Yan, please don't be rampant."
Zhang Xiu stepped forward and stabbed the nameless man to death with one shot, then led the horse to chase Cao Cao again.
"Cao Cao, don't leave." Zhang Xiu yelled.
Cao Cao looked back and suddenly his soul rose, and then he urged the war horses to continue running east. However, although the ten people behind him died very simply, they did play a certain role.
The pursuit of the fugitives set aside a little distance. It is really that Cao Cao's life should not be over, but a big river appeared in front of him.
"Hurry, hurry up. Go and break the rear." Cao Cao's eyes lit up, then he hurriedly turned over and dismounted, not caring about armor and he picked up the saddle, then rushed into the water, and quickly headed towards the opposite shore.
Among the light cavalry under his command, fifty people were divided into the rear, and the others also followed Cao Cao, holding the saddle and floating to the other side.
When Zhang Xiu chased to the river and killed all the people who had broken the queen. Cao Cao had already reached the other side and hurriedly untied his armor and felt relaxed all over, he ran quickly with the remaining people and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Zhang Xiu gritted his teeth and turned around and asked, "Come with me if you know water." Then Zhang Xiu untied his armor himself, and did not take a big gun. He only carried a big sword, a bow, and an arrow pouch, and then floated eastward.
The personal soldiers looked at me, and I looked at you, and they were all embarrassed. There were few people in Liangzhou who knew how to water. But the short man chose taller, and there were still seven or eight people who knew how to water. They were Zhang Xiu's personal soldiers, so of course they followed the whole thing. They quickly abandoned the war horse and floated to catch up with Zhang Xiu.
After getting ashore, Zhang Xiu shouted.
