Chapter 23 Dragon, Tiger, Wolf
As the sky fell, Gongsun Zhi's voice hovered in the sky at the battlefield near the city gate, and horse thieves turned from left to right and arced toward the front, running wildly.
Among the ignited flames, the rumbling horse hooves stomped over the blood and corpses. More than a hundred riders chased after them. The figure of the leader wearing a flower robe with a beast-faced swallowing chain armor took the lead. In a blink of an eye, he entered the horse thief who was detouring behind. When someone raised his hand and shot arrows, he cut the horse thief into two pieces with his bow. The war horse fell down with a smirk. The moment the purple gold crown shook, the horse under him jumped in a arc in the air. Several horse thieves around him found the person behind him, turned around and pulled the bow, trying to force the other party to retreat, but in a blink of an eye, they lost their lives and fell down the horse.
"I'll stop him." Gao Sheng yelled.
While running, Gongsun Zhi glanced at the horse thieves who had already left behind in a light manner, and cursed: "You can't even stop Zhang Fei for a while, and still want to stop Lu Bu?"
"What?" The storm was too heavy, and Gao Sheng couldn't hear it clearly.
Gongsun Zhi knew better than those of them. Although most of the novels, films, TV shows, and operas were mostly about the negatives, there was no doubt about his martial arts. Now the other party seemed to have suddenly emerged from a canvas, and he could feel the real horror of life.
"See famous generals to conquer the world, I'll go to your mother--"
The boiling sound of horse hooves penetrated the rain curtain and spread behind him. At this time, more than a dozen horse thieves who were not good at equestrianism had been eliminated, and the remaining ninety people were still following Gongsun Zhi and running side by side.
...Woo...Woo...Woo...
The wolf howls sounded in the rain curtain, Gongsun Zhi raised his hands and yelled: "Distract, hunt them!"
"Aoho——"
The horse thieves shouted wildly, pulled the reins and spread them to the left and right. When they pulled the bow and shot straight to the rear, they were so powerful that they waved their halberds in a high and powerful voice: "Scatter and shoot."
More than a hundred Bingzhou cavalry nearby drove the horses to disperse silently, and pulled the longbows one after another, pulled the strings while running, and let go.
Whoosh swish swish swish-
Arrows on both sides flew across the sky and intertwined each other. Some collided and fell to the ground in the middle, or shot in front and plunged into the soil. Only a small number of them bleeded blood on people's bodies.
With a shaking vision, he saw a horse thief falling from the horse in his eyes. Gongsun Zhi glared at the roaring torrent behind him and made the same moves. He flipped his hand and took the bow, raised his arm and went over with an arrow.
bite--
The horse's hooves galloped, Lu Bu raised his hand to grasp it in the air, and the arrow was nailed to the nail for a moment, and it was held in his hand, and it broke in his hand with a snap. A sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth. He hung the Fang Tian Hua Ji on the side of the horse, took out the bow and arrow, and tightened the bow string. As the horse's hooves moved, the cold arrow swayed and aimed at the figure in front of him.
He yelled softly: "Come on!"
The arrow flew out of the string. In the heavy rain, the arrow quickly opened the falling water droplets, dragged out a straight line, and penetrated the other party's back.
The blood splashed, dyeing the wet fur red. An arrow exposed one end of the feather on Gongsun Zhi's shoulder. He gritted his teeth and roared: "Gaosheng, go down the grass slope, you rush back to the Bailangyuan and call everyone, I will take that guy to the grassland for a few rounds."
"But the leader... your shoulder..."
Gongsun Zhi shouted: "Go quickly--"
The arrow came again, this time it happened to be nailed to the hilt of the knife on the waist, and bounced open for a moment. When Gao Sheng was down the grass slope, he rode his horse away from the team while the rainy night and headed towards the wolf's den.
Whether in terms of formation, equipment, or number of people, Gongsun Zhi could not get the Han cavalry to fight. It was because Lu Bu did not have the Red Rabbit yet. In other words, the tactics he learned from played a certain delaying role. The two conveniences were to chase one side and flee on the other side, and occasionally shoot at the same time, and some people would fall off their horses by scattering the stars.
The real existence of Lu Bu made Gongsun Zhi feel great oppression in advance to a certain extent.
***************************************************************
A drop of raindrops hangs on the red flower, the sound of the majestic bell rings in the imperial city, the petals tremble slightly, the water droplets roll into the pool, causing ripples. The imperial garden is walking on the winding road paved with small stones, and the figures reflect the water surface one after another, and someone coughs slightly.
"Your Majesty, be careful. The spring is slightly cold, so let's go to the palace." A eunuch behind him was tall and strong, with thick eyebrows and long face. At this time, he whispered to remind Dang Xiongzi, who was walking with his hands behind his back.
The figure shook his hand slowly and sighed: "Only I know about my body, I am afraid it won't work anymore. I have been ascending the throne for twenty years. When it comes to the end, I realize that I have done many things wrong."
"Your Majesty is in his prime, and now he is just a few minor injuries and illnesses. It won't be long before he will recover." Jian Shuo, who was following behind, followed closely, and was frightened.
Liu Hong's face was a little sallow. He waved his hand, smiled at the little yellow gate, and still walked slowly.
"I want to do too much now and can't do it. There is only one thing I can do now, and I can't delay it anymore. You should know what I'm talking about, right?"
The eunuch walking behind him trembled and bowed, "I dare not take the holy will."
"You dare, everyone in the court dares. Do you think I don't know what they said behind their backs?" Liu Hong looked up at the spring sun hanging on the roof, "...I hope I die. I'm dead. They have the merit of following the dragon. I don't let these people be proud."
Jian Shuo was so scared that he knelt on the ground, "Your Majesty, the Marquis Shen held the troops of the world... and established another crown prince... what if he..."
"He dares-"
The figure who turned around was angry and suddenly roared, pointing to the sky, "This world belongs to me, and the prince is also my. Why would he, but the butcher dare to point fingers in this matter? I will destroy him."
"But... General He has a high position and a powerful position and holds military power, which will definitely disturb him."
Liu Hong lowered his eyes, was silent for a moment, and spoke hoarsely and quietly: "Then let's separate power and divide his authority. I let you do this, it's hard to peel your skin."
“Yes…yes…”
Jian Shuo from Xiaohuangmen broke out in cold sweat, and the seriously ill dragon was still the dragon.
......
The sky was far away. When I returned to the north, the wind on the grassland was blowing hard. It was almost dusk. The outline of the hills was dim in the horizon. People walked across the grassland, and rustled sounds filled with blood.
"Let the horses activate their thighs..." Around the woods, people were holding war horses and shouting.
The sound was weak. Someone came over and took out the noodles and ate a few bites, and fed it to the horse's mouth that stretched out. Most of them were like this. The sound of gasping in silence was mixed with the sound of panting. Gongsun Zhi was wrapped in a few circles of bandages, ribs, arms, and especially shoulders. Most of the more than 80 people around him were injured.
He took a sip of water, sat on a collapsed dead tree, and looked at the grass slope opposite, where the same group of people were resting, kneading horses and eating.
"One day and one night... Mom, don't you die, right..."
Opposite Gongsun Zhi's sight, Lu Bu, who was also sitting there, put down his sheepskin bag, then clenched his fists, stared at the figure who was looking at him, "If I had a good horse, how could you wait for the thief to be rampant."
But on the other hand, he already recognized the strength of this wolf.
