"Where did the army of thousands of people come from?"
Wu Nanpu and his soldiers looked a little pale.
That group of troops suddenly appeared near Yuncheng. They were obviously enemies rather than friends.
"Quickly, return to the city quickly and report to the commander!"
Wu Nanpu's reaction was quick, and he immediately arranged for a few horses to return to the city.
"Sir, aren't we leaving?"
"We are cavalry, and most of the opponents are infantry. We can stay here and observe to see where the enemy troops come from."
After the initial panic, Wu Nanpu calmed down.
Demonstrating the excellent combat qualities of a newly promoted centurion.
They found a high ground on the back slope and observed the enemy's movements.
The enemy army was not marching very fast, but the men and horses made no sound and were very quiet.
Not long after, the enemy was only a mile or two away from them.
"Go, move back."
Wu Nanpu did not dare to observe any more and ordered to retreat, and his soldiers turned their horses around one after another.
The rumble of horse hooves immediately echoed across the empty field ridge.
There was also some commotion among the enemy troops.
Immediately, a dozen cavalry suddenly appeared from the enemy army, like the wind, breaking away from the army and rushing out.
Directly pursued Wu Nanpu and others.
"Sir, I'm chasing you!"
"Don't panic, it's just their scouting horse, only a dozen of them."
Wu Nanpu and his soldiers retreated while loudly appeasing them.
Two small groups of cavalry immediately started a chasing game.
The party with more people runs away, while the party with less people pursues them.
He ran several miles in one go.
"How dare more than ten riders chase you so far?"
Wu Nanpu's eyes flashed, do you want to charge back?
The enemy only has a dozen cavalry, but they have nearly a hundred men, so their numerical advantage is very obvious.
.........
A few miles away, Cao's army, which was marching slowly, stopped marching.
"Sir, Sir Zhang Ke is chasing us out."
A sergeant reported to Cao Su.
Li Li stood next to Cao Su, slightly puzzled.
Is it necessary for Zhang Ke to personally lead the pursuit of some spies from the Wanping Army?
Cao Su said in a deep voice: "Explore again and report again."
The sergeant immediately shouted and retreated.
Cao Su rode on a tall horse and looked into the distance.
After breaking through to the sixth level, his facial features became sharper and his eyesight was much better than before. At this glance, he could see two groups of people still chasing each other in the distance.
"Li Li, do you know what the military order I gave Zhang Ke is?"
Cao Su gently pinched the horse's belly, and the horse took two steps forward with a click.
"Kill 30%, capture 30%, release 30%."
"This is the three-three tactic."
Everyone knows Cao Su's military orders, but no one knows the meaning of these three tactics.
Most people feel that Mr. Cao is becoming more and more enigmatic and cannot fathom his thoughts.
........
In the distance, Zhang Ke held the flag high and strictly obeyed Cao Su's military orders.
What he didn't expect was that after running for more than ten miles, the opponent stopped running and instead turned around and charged towards them.
More than a hundred knights charged in the opposite direction, and their momentum was magnificent.
Zhang Ke excitedly pulled out his long knife and pointed forward.
"kill!"
I ran after him, but he didn't arrive for a long time.
We turned around and walked towards each other, and we met each other immediately.
The two sides crashed into each other like a torrent of steel.
Among them, Zhang Ke, as a centurion in the realm of strength, took the lead and was at the front.
The horizontal sword in his hand was slashed forward, and a faint light of the sword was swung, which directly broke the armor of a cavalryman and chopped him down to the ground.
No one can stop his blow.
After the charge, Zhang Ke's veterans were uninjured, but the opponent's more than ten riders fell.
Power realm!!
They are all Qi-blood warriors!
Wu Nanpu's heart was shaken, and he realized that he had thought wrong. The gap in combat power between the two sides was a bit big.
"Walk!"
Wu Nanpu shouted.
Just this sound attracted Zhang Ke's attention.
This man is the leader!
Zhang Ke immediately mounted his horse and aimed directly at Wunan Pu.
Wu Nanpu started to run away like crazy, his energy and blood suddenly hit the strength realm, and he had no chance of winning.
Who is the person on the opposite side? Someone just ran out. Is he a master of force realm?
He sat down on his horse like crazy and urged it to run wildly.
However, the people behind him were staring at him, especially the force realm. Wu Nanpu glanced back and happened to see his murderous eyes. His whole body was stiff and cold sweat broke out from his back.
Zhang Ke is an old scout, and he knows how to catch enemies who are running away.
Although the horse Wu Nanpu sat on was a good horse, under such urging, he only gained some advantages from the beginning, and soon Zhang Ke continued to narrow the gap.
"Run? Can you run?"
Zhang Ke snorted coldly, then suddenly stood up from his horse and took out an iron bow.
Wu Nanpu was so frightened that he lost his soul.
"Buzz!"
He heard the sound of the powerful master behind him drawing his bow and shooting arrows.
He quickly ducked down to avoid it.
There was no sound in the air.
A figure fell from the sky, landed directly on top of his head, and then swung a palm and hit his horse's head.
The war horse screamed, its front legs bent, and it rolled and fell to the ground.
Wu Nanpu immediately rolled to the ground, the world turned upside down, and stars appeared in front of his eyes.
As soon as he raised his head, a long knife was already placed on his neck.
The cold blade.
It made his hair stand on end.
.......
"Oops, my lord has been caught!"
The other soldiers of Wanping who were escaping in a hurry saw this scene from a distance and wished they could sit down on their horses and run with them. Four legs were not enough.
They did not dare to look back and fled all the way towards Yuncheng.
After running for more than an hour, this group of embarrassed people finally arrived in Yuncheng.
At this time, Yuncheng, which received the news, had begun martial law.
The detective horses were inspected and released into the city.
On the city wall, a strong man with a red scarf on his head called several people to him.
When several people saw him, they immediately fell to their knees and cried.
"Hu Shuai!"
"Shuai Hu, the enemy troops are fierce and our brothers suffered heavy casualties!"
The strong man was unshaven and his face was a little haggard. After hearing this, he frowned and felt a little strange.
"How many people are there in the enemy army?"
Several people were prepared to be interrogated on the way here. When they saw Hu Shuai asking questions, they quickly said: "There are at least thousands of people, and there are many masters. Centurion Wu Nanpu was killed with a single sword."
Thirty or forty people fled back with more than a hundred riders. If the enemy is said to be too weak, it will be difficult for them to explain.
So I chose to give an ambiguous number and explained the incident about Wu Nanpu.
This report directly interfered with the coach's judgment.
"Commander Father, I'm afraid they are the newly arrived officers and soldiers of the imperial court."
"I heard that the right general of the imperial court has led his army to Fufeng City. He is reorganizing his army in the past few days and may attack Xunshan City at any time. Could this be a test by the right general?"
There is a young man beside the strong man. The young man has a handsome appearance.
If Cao Su were here, he would be able to recognize him.
This man was Hu Ze, a talented martial artist of the same period in the martial arts gym. It was later confirmed that this person was lurking in the martial arts gym, but was actually the work of Wan Pingjun.
The father-in-command next to Hu Ze was Hu Rong, who had led the army to besiege Pingcheng.
Wan Pingjun's career was booming, but Hu Rong gradually went downhill.
Since the failure of the attack on Pingcheng, Hu Rong's status in the hearts of the generals of the Shrine has plummeted. Later, he volunteered to go to Yuzhou to fight, but was ostracized by Tianniu Taoist and other factions.
After coming to Yuzhou, he didn't make much achievements.
He led his army to capture Yuncheng and barely managed to find a place to stay at Bai Cai's place.
Therefore, Hu Rong, who had lost his favor, had been depressed and depressed. He drank in Yuncheng every day and was in a very bad state.
Unexpectedly, while hiding in such a retirement home, officers and soldiers came to visit me.
"Father, what should we do?"
Hu Ze held the long knife in his hand and looked at Hu Rong.
Hu Rong was between the wall stacks, looking into the distance, but he had not yet seen the enemy troops that the soldiers mentioned.
"Since there are enemy troops in Yuncheng, let me first inform Bai Cai and Gu Bo. These days, there are some volunteers appearing on all sides. They may not be the right general's people."
"If Bai Cai Gu Bo can't make a decision, then report it to the long-horned beetle."
After hearing Hu Rong's words, Hu Ze felt a little disappointed.
Since the Battle of Pingcheng, my father's fighting spirit and condition have been reduced. His whole body has been drained a lot, and his position in the Thirty-sixth Canal Commandery has been declining.
Bai Cai and Gu Bo, who were both ranked behind Hu Rong at first, are now running ahead of him.
In Hu Ze's eyes, his father is now a bit indecisive, always too cautious, and lacks the enterprising spirit of a warrior.
Hu Ze admonished: "Commander Father, why don't I go out of the city to observe first. If the enemy's army is really only a few thousand elite soldiers, and there are still more than ten thousand of our army in the city, we may not be able to defeat them directly."
Hu Rong frowned and shouted: "Ze'er, the situation is still unclear, so don't act rashly."
Hu Ze wanted to say something more, but Hu Rong interrupted him forcefully: "This matter is not trivial. Listen to me. I have made my own decision."
After saying that, Hu Rong left the wall.
Later.
The Yuncheng Suspension Bridge was hung high, and the entire city was in a state of lockdown, with no one in or out.
