The sound of horse hoofbeats resounded throughout the sky. When Xu Rong and Zhang He heard this, they were horrified and immediately ordered their troops to defend themselves.
Tens of thousands of troops immediately stopped after hearing the military order, and then began to form a military formation, preparing to welcome the incoming cavalry.
After waiting for a long time, the sound of horse hooves got closer and closer.
"Crossbow ready."
The crossbows were cocked one after another, and everyone held their breath, ready to shoot at any time.
"Wait, why does it look like a carriage to me?"
Xu Rong was about to give the order to shoot, but Zhang He directly lowered his hand and stopped the crossbow arrow that was about to be fired.
"Um?
It’s indeed a carriage. Do you think the one at the front of the row is Mr. Zibu’s carriage?”
Hearing Zhang He's words, Xu Rong also stared with wide eyes.
"It is indeed Mr. Zibu who is here."
As the sound of horse hoofbeats got closer and closer, Zhang He finally saw clearly that the person at the front was indeed Zhang Zhao.
"stop."
Zhang Zhao waved the entire convoy to a slow stop, and then he quickly came to Zhang He.
"How's the battle going?"
Looking at the miserable soldiers and horses, Zhang Zhao couldn't help but frown.
"The enemy not only includes Lu Bu, but also Cao Cao's elite troops. There are at least 100,000 people on both sides. Plus the troops and horses coming out of the east city, the enemy's strength far exceeds ours. General Yan Liang leads the Polu army to defeat it, and only then can we escape.
.”
After hearing Zhang Zhao's words, Zhang He and Xu Rong felt guilty.
"You mean General Yan Liang is now trapped in a tight siege?"
Zhang Zhao's brows squeezed out the word "Sichuan".
"Indeed."
Zhang He nodded towards Zhang Zhao.
"Then do you have the guts to fight back with me and rescue General Yan Liang?"
Zhang Zhao glanced at the moonlight, and a trace of tenacity flashed in his eyes.
"Military advisor, Zhang He is greedy for life and is afraid of death. The enemy is powerful. The reason why General Yan Liang fought so hard to cut off the rear is so that the large army can escape. If we fight back now, the sacrifice of the Polu army will be in vain."
Faced with Zhang Zhao's words, Zhang He opposed it. If they went back now, wouldn't they be throwing themselves into a trap and betraying Yan Liang's good intentions?
"What if I say that if I go back this time, I am confident that I can rescue General Yan Liang and the Polu Army?"
Hearing Zhang He's words, Zhang Zhao also nodded. It is true that Yan Liang and the Polu Army sacrificed themselves to cover the evacuation of the large forces. Now they cannot go back, but since they proposed it, they have a strategy to defeat the enemy.
"I hope the military advisor will make it clear, otherwise Zhang He will not be able to obey the order."
Although Zhang Zhao said this, Zhang He still hoped that Zhang Zhao could reveal his plan. Although he also wanted to kill him, he couldn't be so reckless.
"What's behind me?"
Facing Zhang He's question, Zhang Zhao took him directly to the motorcade behind him.
"This is a carriage. Is there any mystery inside?"
Following Zhang Zhao to the carriage, Zhang He's eyes were full of doubts.
"If there is any mystery, you will know after opening it."
Zhang Zhao suddenly opened the curtain on the carriage, and saw that it was filled with hay, kerosene and other fire starters.
"What the military advisor wants is to set the carriage on fire and attack the enemy camp when the battle is about to begin?
When they are in chaos, can we rescue Yan Liang and the Polu army and leave?"
Seeing these things, Zhang He immediately understood Zhang Zhao's intention, sacrificing the carriage to create chaos, and then he could take advantage of the situation to save the Polu army and leave.
"exactly."
Zhang Zhao nodded, Zhang He understood exactly what he wanted to say.
"A military advisor is indeed a military advisor. If that's the case, what else is there to say? Kill him back and save Paoze."
Since Zhang Zhao has such an arrangement, what else can Zhang He say, just do it.
"Kill back and save Pao Ze."
Xu Rong also shouted loudly.
"Kill back and save Pao Ze."
"Kill back and save Pao Ze."
"Kill back and save Pao Ze."
The shouts exploded in the night sky like ocean waves. Without any hesitation, everyone shouted that they wanted to go back and rescue Yan Liang.
"Then charge forward, using the carriage as the vanguard, and fight back."
Zhang Zhao nodded. He originally thought that the morale of the defeated army would be very low when the army was killed. But now he saw that this was not a defeated army. It was simply an elite force that had been victorious in every battle.
No nonsense, nearly ten thousand carriages rushed directly towards the battlefield with rumbling horse hooves. Behind them, Zhang He and Xu Rong followed closely with the remnants of the army who had just escaped, full of energy, with their swords and guns unsheathed, ready to fight at any time.
Surrounded by the enemy, the Polu army became smaller and smaller, and became more and more dense. Outside, there were three layers inside and three layers outside, surrounded by Cao, Lu and San's coalition forces.
"what sound?"
Lu Bu, who was directing outside, suddenly heard the sound of galloping horse hooves.
"Um?
The sound of horse hooves?
Why is there the sound of horse hooves?"
Cao Ren's ears also moved, and he also heard the sound of horse hooves treading the ground.
"You still have cavalry here?"
Cao Ren and Lu Bu unanimously set their sights on Zhou Ping. They knew their own troops and horses, and the only one who might have cavalry here was Zhou Ping.
"No, I don't have cavalry here."
Zhou Ping was also stunned. He has cavalry?
I do not know how.
"No, it's Yuan Shu's cavalry. Hurry, hurry, form a defensive formation."
Seeing Zhou Ping's confused eyes, Lu Bu and Cao Ren were instantly horrified, and immediately called for their troops to form formations to defend against the enemy's cavalry.
"General, we are saved, the cavalry, the cavalry is coming."
The Polu army surrounded in the middle also heard the sound of horse hooves and came directly to Yan Liang to speak to him.
"cavalry?
We have no cavalry."
When Yan Liang heard what the guards said, he shook his head. He knew that he had soldiers and horses. He brought a lot of carriages with him this time, but there were no cavalry anywhere.
"But look, the enemy has begun to make a commotion."
Although Yan Liang didn't believe it was his cavalry, following the direction of the guards, he could see that the surrounding troops were commotion. This also proved that the cavalry was not the opponent's, but he didn't have any cavalry.
Why is it so strange.
"Light the fire and abandon the car."
The carriage rushed forward. When approaching the front of the formation, Zhang Zhao directly ordered the carriage to be set on fire. The deputy driving the carriage abandoned the carriage and allowed the carriage to attack the enemy formation naturally.
"Take good care of my parents for me."
"Take good care of my wife and children, and tell them that I am the bravest."
"Damei, let's meet again in the next life if we are destined."
Handfuls of flames were instantly ignited, and the carriages continued to rush forward like balls of running flames. However, the deputy soldiers driving the cars made the same choice. No one jumped out of the carriages, but drove the carriages like fireballs straight ahead.
rushed towards the enemy.
These deputy army soldiers are only reserves. They have no numbers or ranks, and all they have is a fearless heart. You must know that abandoning the carriage now will save their lives, but if there is no one to drive the carriage, it will definitely go astray and fail to achieve the intended effect.
, so in order to ensure victory in this battle, they would rather die together with the enemy.
Seeing the fireballs rushing toward them, the soldiers at the front no longer had fighting spirit in their eyes, but deep fear. They had never encountered such a situation before.
"Prepare the crossbow and fire it."
Cao Ren gave an order, and the crossbowmen in the front row shot out the crossbow arrows in their hands. After a wave of crossbow arrows, the horses in the front row fell down in response. There were smashed carriages everywhere, but the carriage behind them was still covered in
He rushed in front of the enemy in anger.
"Shield."
To be honest, Cao Ren was also frightened when he saw the oncoming flames, but they must stop the carriage in front of them now, otherwise the good situation they had just established might be ruined.
After hearing Cao Ren's order, the soldiers in the front row holding the shields couldn't help but swallowed their saliva, but still put their bodies behind the shields, and a long shield wall appeared at the front of the formation.
