Chapter 543: Cao Zhang, Where to Escape!
Ten miles east of Yangle City.
A Cao army of more than 5,000 people was hurrying on the road to the east.
A young general, riding a horse at the forefront.
Although he was young, he had a yellow beard, and he looked much older than a young man of his age.
While running, he glanced back in the direction of Yangle City, and sighed secretly: "Did you retreat without a fight like this, where is my Cao Zhang's face!" β
Cao Zhang was annoyed.
Thinking that he believed that he was the most powerful among the sons of the Cao family, he thought that he could defend Yangle for his father and defend a corner of Liaodong.
He had long been mentally prepared to fight a tough battle with Su Zhe in Yangle City, so that the world would know his Cao Zhang's strength.
Unfortunately, the Wuhuan people were destroyed, and Cao Cao gave an order to let him withdraw all the defenders in the city to the east of Liaoshui, shattering his wishful thinking.
Cao Zhang was unwilling, but he could only obey the order, and reluctantly led the army to leave Yangle City and retreat to the east of Liaoshui.
Behind him, Yang Lecheng gradually faded away, and soon even the silhouette disappeared.
Cao Zhang was no longer nostalgic, he could only sigh secretly, and the focused horse hurried forward.
Suddenly, his eyes suddenly converged, and a deep look of surprise welled up.
At the end of the avenue ahead, a military formation loomed in sight, blocking his way east.
It was 10,000 cavalry, arrayed, black pressure like a dark cloud close to the ground, filled with suffocating oppressive force.
In the cold wind, a big flag with the word "Su" flew proudly in the wind.
Su Zhe!
It was the iron cavalry army under Su Zhe's own command that blocked his way.
Cao Zhang's face changed immediately, and he was anxious to restrain the war horse.
The 5,000 Cao troops who were hurrying forward behind them stopped in a hurry, and looked at the Soviet army in front of them with a pair of surprised and panicked eyes.
"Isn't Su Zhe supposed to be leading the army to attack my Yangle City from the west, how could he appear here?"
Cao Zhang looked at the Soviet iron cavalry opposite, with deep surprise and confusion on his face, and he couldn't figure out why.
Suddenly, his eyes changed, and he suddenly realized.
"Okay, you Su Zhe, it turns out that you expected me to abandon Yangle City, retreat to the east, and take the first step to bypass Yangle with light horses, wanting to intercept and kill me......"
Thinking about the reason, Cao Zhang couldn't help but shiver, and a trace of chill came out of the soles of his feet.
At this moment, for the first time, he was deeply terrified by the horror of Su Zhe's resourcefulness.
When Cao Cao was repeatedly defeated by Su Zhe, he was only a teenager and had never led troops into battle to fight Su Zhe.
At that time, he was young and arrogant, and he had always been dissatisfied with Su Zhe.
He didn't believe that there could be someone like Su Zhe in this world, with the wisdom of the head of the Nine Wonders, and he could also call the wind and rain, and kill his proud father who was defeated in successive battles, and his hands were stained with the blood of his uncles of the Cao family.
Therefore, Cao Zhang has always held a grudge and tried in vain to one day break the myth of Su Zhe's invincibility.
And now, when he was blocked by Su Zhe's iron cavalry, a divine soldier descending from heaven, he truly realized how powerful the head of the Nine Qi was.
Not only did he miraculously destroy the Wuhuan people, but he was also in control of abandoning Yangle and retreating to Liaoshui.
Such a resource, such a military strategy, is simply rare in the world.
Cao Zhang's ambition was mostly extinguished, and a trace of fear was born.
The iron cavalry formation of the Soviet army opened like a wave, and a golden figure rode forward slowly and came to the front of the ten thousand troops.
It's Su Zhe.
He glanced at the panicked Cao Jun in front of him from a distance, and the corners of his mouth raised an unexpected sneer.
"Duke Chu is really like a god, then Cao Zhang really wanted to abandon the city and flee, but fortunately, we rushed day and night to intercept him."
Yan Liang, Wen Chou and other generals behind him looked at Su Zhe's back, and their faces were full of deep respect.
"Listen to Cao Zhang, you have no way out, get off the horse and return to your father, spare you a way to live."
Su Zhe shouted loudly, and his voice revealed supreme majesty and domineering.
That is the momentum that the world's largest prince can have.
His voice spread far away, and thousands of panicked Cao soldiers and soldiers all changed their colors, and their hearts instantly chilled.
"It's Chu Gong Su Zhe who personally leads the troops, it's over, we're done."
"That Su Zhe is the head of the Nine Wonders, and he can also call the wind and rain, how can we, the centaurs, beat him."
"Otherwise, let's surrender, or there is only one way to die."
The panicked Cao soldiers were immediately frightened, and all kinds of discussions broke out, and some people even openly shouted to surrender.
Cao Zhang was furious.
His panic and jealousy dissipated in an instant, and burned into endless anger.
"My Cao family's strongest martial arts son, even if he dies in battle, how can he surrender, then Su Zhe dares to surrender to me, it is obviously humiliating me!"
Cao Zhang, who was furious, pointed his sword at Su Zhe and shouted: "Su Zhe dog thief, others are afraid of you, I, Cao Zhang, am not afraid of you, I will take your dog's life today!" β
In a fit of rage, Cao Zhang looked at the Cao soldier behind him and said sharply: "Brothers, that Su Zhe is brutal and unkind, there is only one way for you to surrender, only by fighting to the death with me and fighting a bloody way, can you have a chance to live, rush me!" β
In the tragic roar, Cao Zhang's horse and knife were raised, and he actually killed the Soviet cavalry.
Behind him, less than a thousand people followed him and fought to the death against the Soviet army.
The remaining 4,000 people, the fighting spirit has long collapsed, and as soon as Cao Zhang's front foot rushed out, their back foot scattered and collapsed.
So, Cao Zhang and his 1,000 remnants of the army, like a group of isolated ants, rushed towards the rolling torrent.
"It's a bloody guy......"
Su Zhe sighed softly and let out a sigh of admiration.
Then, a cold murderous intent welled up in his eyes.
The horsewhip was raised slightly, and he said coldly: "Since you don't surrender, then kill them all!" β
"Kill the whole army, kill all the enemiesβ"
Yan Liang roared loudly, and immediately rode out of the horse.
Wen Chou, Zhang Liao and other generals also killed them.
The 10,000 Soviet iron cavalry soldiers who had been gathering momentum for a long time shook the sky with a sound of killing, and with a fierce killing machine, they overwhelmingly broke the embankment.
In the blink of an eye, the two armies collided.
The screams, the neighing of horses, and the sound of weapons breaking resounded through the sky and earth in an instant, and the rolling blood flowed into a backward blood waterfall and flew into the air.
An instant later, more than 1,000 soldiers of Cao were overwhelmed by the iron cavalry of the Soviet army.
Cao Zhang's horse and sword dance, killing all the way, with his strong martial arts, cut off the heads of countless Soviet soldiers.
It's a pity that the general trend has gone, and he can turn the defeat around with his own strength.
When Cao Zhang rushed out of twenty steps, the speed of his advance became slower and slower, and the Soviet iron cavalry in front of him became denser and denser.
And behind him, a thousand soldiers who had already been killed, were still following his soldiers, but only a few horses.
"Could it be that I, Cao Zhang, am going to die in such a humiliating death today?"
Cao Zhang gritted his teeth, his spirit was overwhelmed by grief and indignation.
"Cao Zhang'er, Yan Liang is here, take your life!"
At this moment, a tiger roar sounded in the chaotic army, which shook Cao Zhang's eardrums.
As soon as Cao Zhangyi raised his head, he saw ten steps ahead, Hebei General Yan Liang, dragging a blood-stained broadsword, rushing towards him like a killing god.
