When Cao's army drove with cavalry to defeat the Lujiang bandits in Linpi, the sky was already dark. But at this time, the day was long and the night was short. After a long time, it was not completely dark. Looking at the clouds in the west, a strange red color slowly appeared, revealing a ferocious look. It seemed that the sun that should have fallen could not fall, but instead struggled to climb up again.

As the experience-rich waiter looked at it, a sentence suddenly appeared: "It seems like a boat burning in a red crow."

Someone also said: Where did the fleet come from here? I think it was like the one who burned grain in Wuchao back then.

This kind of speculation reached the ears of the cavalry commander Cao Zhang. He waved several people on the spot, but he could not help but worry. After a while, he stopped charging and summoned his subordinates to say that he was worried that there might be something wrong in the west, so he planned to withdraw his troops immediately and rush back to the team where Prime Minister Cao was.

In fact, the generals and schoolmen who accompanied Cao Zhang had experienced many experiences in the east and west. They all felt that as long as the commander and generals remained unchanged, even if the sky fell, they had to finish the battle in front of them first. The bandits in front of them must be somewhat capable of defeating Cao Wenlie. If they annihilate it in one fell swoop, they can also save some face for the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, right?

What's more, if they think about it, there is no wrong with the fierce generals around Cao Gong, what's wrong with it?

However, Cao Zhang and Cao Ziwen's identity are different from those of the generals and schoolmen. He is the captain of the tiger and leopard cavalry, but he is also the son of Prime Minister Cao. No matter whether the prime minister has any problems or not, Cao Ziwen's attitude cannot be negligent. Compared with his father's impression of his son, what is a mere thief?

At this moment, several generals and school officials' proposals to continue fighting were rejected by Cao Zhang, and the main force of the cavalry swept back. Under the repeated requests of the generals and school officials, hundreds of other cavalrymen were left to cross the battlefield and continue to pursue to ensure a complete victory in this battle.

During the time when the generals and the school discussed, the bandits had already been defeated and fled far away. The cavalry responsible for pursuing the remaining enemies took action immediately without waiting for Cao Zhang to lead the team to leave.

When they crossed the battlefield, they could no longer see the enemy. They were surrounded by abandoned weapons and armored staff, and of course hundreds of thousands of corpses. Their limbs were pale, and the soil under their limbs were soaked in blood and turned into mottled purple.

The cavalry teams scattered and searched, but they couldn't find the robber's survivor. Obviously, although the robbers retreated, they still maintained the most basic order, and at least they were able to take care of the wounded.

Looking further east, there are continuous low-lying water, wild forests, and several slightly dry highlands. The highlands are vaguely like the wind blowing trees, and it is like a figure shaking. After all, the bandits are mainly infantry and cannot run far. The leader of this bandit army is said to be the powerful arm of the Lujiang Ju Kou Lei Yuan. One of them is surnamed Guo and the other is surnamed Ding. He has been appointed as a lieutenant in Liu Bei, Jingzhou. If they can catch or kill them, they will have a great contribution.

Several military waiters discussed and decided to disperse their troops and pull the net and intercept it into the complex terrain.

The military commander Gao Cheng was Cao Zhang's personal general. In the past, Cao Zhang suppressed the tiger from Lelang County with his bare hands in front of the prime minister. Gao Cheng held a long halberd on the side to take care of it. Just now, Cao Zhang rushed to the battlefield, and Gao Cheng was also with his side and killed many people.

At this moment, Cao Zhang rushed back to the team, and kept Gao Cheng chasing, which was obviously giving his confidants a chance to continue to make contributions.

Gao Cheng rode and rode his neighbors, rumbled and trampled on the mud, and rushed into the reed marsh. While walking, he explored all over the place, and soon he showed joy.

That's right, the bandits did not flee far away, and this group of people hid in this depression!

Before joining the army, Gao Cheng was an excellent hunter. He keenly felt that there were one or several horse riders galloping parallel to him through the reed poles. They must be lying on the horse's back and walking with their necks, so their target was very small; and the horse's hooves were often accompanied by the sound of water, almost covering up their hooves.

He sneered slightly, gestured to his companion behind him, and pulled out the arrow and placed it on the bowstring in advance.

In a blink of an eye, the enemy cavalry got closer and closer. When they reached the edge of a raised grass beach, the reeds suddenly disappeared, and they saw several galloping horses in a short distance!

Gao Cheng did not hesitate and raised his hand and flew out with an arrow. More than ten subordinates behind him shot arrows with him.

All of these arrows fell into vain.

There was no one on the horse.

The cavalry of Cao's army were all stunned. On the grass beach on the other side, several people had already jumped out and shot randomly.

Before Gao Cheng could turn around and set his bow, the enemy's arrows had already shot into his vest. Several cavalrymen who were close to him were all shot and were all caught. The cavalry behind saw the people in front of him suddenly fell down and knew that they must have encountered an ambush from the enemy.

They cursed loudly and turned to rush, and in an instant, hundreds of iron hooves stepped into the puddle, causing splashes of water and mud to fly, but they could not find the enemy.

For a moment, the surrounding trees and reeds looked like enemies, and the wind seemed to have the enemy's whispers. Occasionally, a few sharp whistles pierced the sky, which must be used by the bandits to convey messages, but the whistle was too short and there was no way to judge the direction and distance of the enemy based on this.

The cavalry of Cao's army were both panicked and angry. They wandered around aimlessly for several times, and finally pulled out the horn and blew it, intending to gather with another group of knights nearby.

But when they returned to the place where they were attacked and planned to bring their own army's body, they could no longer find it, and the few ownerless war horses just now disappeared.

"What's going on?" Several officers cursed angrily, and pulled their horses around and kept wandering around. Finally, they decided to take a step back and make plans.

Shortly after the Cao army's knights left, the lush reeds swayed and Ding Feng came out.

He waved his hand to drive away the mosquitoes and flies chasing the bloody smell, and dragged Gao Cheng's body with the other hand. After dragging it for more than ten steps to the heights, he sat cross-legged, pulled out a short knife from his waist, and slowly cut off the head of the Cao army officer.

This short knife was not the sharp blade he used to, but just an ordinary product. The blade was a little blunt. When it was cut into the neck, it had to be repeatedly thrust to tear the flesh. Ding Feng cut it patiently and slowly, and when the neck bones were cut and the flesh was broken, the entire pond under his feet was dyed red.

Ding Feng continued to cut the neck bones first, then slowly cut off the flesh on his face and head, leaving behind a bloody skeleton. He held it in his hand and threw it, feeling the amount was appropriate, so he satisfactorily hung it on an old tree in the middle of the high ground, retreated a few steps, and turned his head to take a look.

"What do you think I have skills?" he asked.

The dark sky, the white skulls, and the branches... This situation is so scary.

Several subordinates were injured with different weights and supported each other and looked at each other, thinking that their heads might have been so angry that they became crazy because of their subordinates' losses.

"Chengyuan, let's stop being entangled and leave as soon as possible. It will soon be dark and just heading deep into Linbei. The most urgent task is to get rid of Cao's pursuit and get out with the remaining soldiers!" a middle-aged subordinate advised.

"Why go?" Ding Feng sneered, his eyes showing blood red: "After this battle, there are still a few soldiers left? Hundreds of lives are killed. Even if I return to Jingzhou, how can I face the soldiers' families? I won't leave! I will fight them here today!"

The young man walked back and forth violently under the tree. When he was about to say a few more harsh words, he looked up and saw the fire shining in the distance. The flag was waving in the wind. Hundreds of cavalry and Cao troops gathered under the flag and rushed towards this high ground!
