Deng Ai was extremely intelligent, although Zhang Liao only mentioned it slightly, but he quickly understood.

The Eastern Wu cavalry that is now blocking the front is several times that of Deng Ai's corporaries.

According to common sense, Deng Ai should first avoid his edge, and then lead his soldiers to flee from other places.

It's just that if Deng Ai takes a detour now, it's too late.

Not to mention that they will be chased and killed by Tai Shi Ci, just the elite troops led by Guan Yu and Zhang He can kill all the hundreds of cavalry under Deng Ai.

As for the Eastern Wu cavalry, which blocked the road in front and was menacing, it was a unit with the worst combat effectiveness.

It must be known that the allied soldiers descended from the sky, and they all came by warships, and they couldn't transport war horses at all, and the war horses ridden by these Eastern Wu soldiers all belonged to the Guanzhong Army.

Moreover, the soldiers of Eastern Wu are good at water warfare, and they are not proficient in land warfare, and they are even more ignorant of cavalry warfare.

Don't look at these Eastern Wu soldiers riding war horses, but many people have never experienced cavalry battles, and it would be good to be able to barely fall off their war horses.

Therefore, although the cavalry of Eastern Wu seemed to be large in number and looked aggressive, in fact they were bluffing and were not vulnerable at all.

Zhang Liao deserved to be a veteran general on the battlefield, and he quickly saw through all this, and then gave Deng Ai an order to let him attack the Eastern Wu cavalry formation head-on and survive in death.

The hundreds of cavalrymen who followed Deng Ai suddenly saw Zhang Liao killed by an arrow, and they were also panicked.

But Deng Ai's arrogance has infected everyone.

said that Tai Shici shot Zhang Liao with an arrow, and even he himself felt a little unbelievable, and then he was overjoyed.

"Charge the whole army and strangle all the thieves!"

The hatred between Dongwu and Guanzhong became deeper and deeper, and Tai Shici didn't think about it at all, so he went to recruit these Guan sergeants.

And in Tai Shici's opinion, there are only a few hundred remnants of the defeated generals on the opposite side, and there is still no Guanzhong cavalry with the main general.

Even if the Eastern Wu soldiers behind him are not suitable for cavalry warfare, it is not a problem to strangle the Guanzhong cavalry.

Unexpectedly, Tai Shici's order annoyed the Guanzhong cavalry on the opposite side.

Originally, their coach was shot to death by a cold arrow, and they were all angry in their hearts, but in the face of today's predicament, they were more desperate.

Fortunately, Deng Ai boosted their morale first, and they reluctantly mentioned a trace of war intent.

In the face of enemy troops several times their size, Sergeant Guan was still a little timid, and it was impossible for him to exert his full combat effectiveness.

However, the issuance of Tai Shici's order to strangle all of them had forced these four hundred cavalry into a desperate situation, and they could only fight to the death.

Deng Ai's seven tricks are exquisite, and he seized the opportunity to shout loudly: "If you escape, you will definitely die, and you will have a trace of vitality by doing your best." ”

"In order to survive, in order to live up to General Zhang's expectations, brothers charge with me!"

"Kill!"

The four hundred cavalry shouted in unison, and rushed forward fiercely with Deng Ai as the arrow, even if the Eastern Wu cavalry had an absolute advantage, they were not afraid at all.

Tai Shi Ci was still holding the wisdom pearl, but after seeing the posture of the cavalry charging in Guanzhong, he was immediately shocked.

"Oops."

Tai Shi Ci could only secretly scream in his heart that it was not good, but still led the cavalry to rush forward violently.

Because, now both sides have no way to retreat, they can only charge, charge, charge!

"Boom!"

War horses trampled the earth, and the sound of rumbling was endless.

"Bang!"

The knights on both sides, who couldn't dodge, slammed together, and the people flipped on their backs.

"Poof!"

The weapon stabbed into his body, blood splattering out.

Due to the lack of cavalry in Eastern Wu, Tai Shici also did not have the experience of commanding cavalry on a large scale.

When the two really collided together, Tai Shici knew that he was wrong, and he was very wrong.

In cavalry warfare, the more troops the better.

On the contrary, if their own soldiers can't even ride war horses, no matter how many they are, they will not be able to play a role at all in the face of hundreds of elite cavalry.

On the battlefield, the cavalry of Eastern Wu turned over on their backs, and many soldiers who could barely ride on war horses could not pull the reins at all after the cavalry in front fell to the ground.

Therefore, on the battlefield, just like those large-scale car accident scenes in later generations, one war horse after another collided together.

In stark contrast, the cavalry in the four hundred levels all had superb riding skills.

Deng Ai saw the right time, and saw that the soldiers in front of him collided together, and the Eastern Wu cavalry was in confusion, and after having no time to care, he began to turn his horse's head and rushed out from the other direction.

Tai Shi Ci watched as Deng Ai led hundreds of cavalry to bypass them, and then drove away, but there was no way to do it.

What he has to do now is to stabilize the chaotic cavalry of Eastern Wu.

You don't see, many war horses were frightened because the knights couldn't control them, and they ran wildly, and they actually rushed their formations to pieces.

For a time, the Eastern Wu soldiers were not killed or injured by the Guanzhong cavalry, but were scattered by their own people.

"Hold the horses, hold the horses, hold the horses!"

Tai Shi Ci watched his subordinates become more and more chaotic, and even many people fell off their horses and were trampled to death, and their faces were even more blue and red.

He shouted loudly, but the soldiers of Dongwu, who had never experienced this situation, were already completely panicked, where could they listen?

I have to say that Zhou Yu's plan to attack the Guanzhong military camp was perfect, and the only flaw was caused by Zhou Yu's selfishness.

Although the armies of the princes formed an alliance, the spoils captured after the victory would belong to each of them.

The rest of the trophies are not enough, but these thousands of war horses are very valuable strategic materials for Soochow, which is extremely short of horses.

Therefore, even though the euphorbia soldiers under Zhang He were all born in the north and were good at horseback riding, Zhou Yu still did not send them to snatch the horses.

It's just that this bit of selfishness has created an opportunity for Deng Ai to break through, and the Dongwu cavalry has now become a joke.

Of course, it can't be said that the soldiers of Eastern Wu are too bad, but it can only be said that they have a specialization in the art industry.

Forcing the Soochow Navy to carry out cavalry warfare is even more unreliable than chasing ducks to the shelves.

Tai Shici shouted loudly, but he didn't have any thoughts because of Deng Ai and the others' escape.

First of all, only a few hundred cavalry escaped.

What's more, even Zhang Liao was killed by him with an arrow, even if these Guan sergeants were transferred, it would not be a big problem.

The most important thing is that Zhou Yu had already set up an ambush in front, and Tai Shici believed that these Guanzhong cavalry would definitely not be able to escape.

The moonlight was bright, the west wind was howling, and the group walked in the light, running in the night.

"Stomp, stomp!"

The sound of horses' hooves broke the silence of the night from far and near, and these hundreds of people were Deng Ai and the others who had just escaped.

"Stop!"

After escaping the camp for a distance and coming to a fork in the road, Deng Ai stopped the soldiers.

A small colonel looked at Zhang Liao who was on the horse, his face showed a look of grief, and asked, "Little General, General Zhang, did he really go?" ”

Deng Ai glanced at the man, and then said, "The dead are gone, what we can do is to live well, and then avenge General Zhang." ”

Seeing that the rest of the junior colonels were about to make an inquiry, Deng Ai hurriedly changed the topic and said: "There are three roads to go now, one is to march north, and go directly to Jiguan to report to General Hao Zhao. ”

"The second is to go south to the banks of the Yellow River, and then cross the river to Hangu Pass and join the main guild."

"The third way, but to go directly to the west, to Kasaka, out of the battlefield."

When everyone heard Deng Ai's words, they immediately talked about it.

A small colonel said: "The coalition forces suddenly attacked, and they must have completed the exploration of the waterway of the Yellow River, and then they went upstream. ”

"Now that we have arrived on the banks of the Yellow River, are we not sheep in the mouth of a tiger? Therefore, the second way is not advisable. ”

Another person said: "Now that the war is urgent, even if we wait for the defeat of the army, we should not flee back to Kabasaka, and the third way is not advisable." ”

Another person said: "The coalition army did not raid General Zhao's camp on the south bank, but raided our camp on the north bank, and they must have wanted to take Jiguan." ”

"If the Kei Pass is lost, the coalition forces can give up attacking the Hangu Pass, and then enter Hedong County directly from the Kei Pass."

"If that's the case, it's hard to stop the edge of the coalition forces, so I suggest that we drive north and inform General Hao Zhao of what happened here, so that he can prepare in advance."

Deng Ai was very happy to see that even though these generals were defeated, they didn't think about escaping.

However, he muttered for a long time before he said, "We can't march north. ”

When everyone heard this, they were puzzled and asked, "Why?" ”

Deng Ai said: "If I don't expect anything wrong, Zhou Yu will definitely come with the army this time, but he has not shown up, and he must have set up an ambush in the north." ”

"Just imagine, since the coalition forces want to attack Keiguan, they will definitely block the news to achieve a surprise effect."

"If we hastily march north, we will definitely be ambushed."

Everyone was shocked when they heard this, and then asked, "In that case, what should we do?" ”

Deng Ai smiled and said, "It's okay, we can march west first, and then turn to Keiguan and inform General Hao Zhao of this matter." ”

When everyone heard this, they all nodded, and then followed Deng Ai to the west.

Deng Ai led everyone to keep running, until the sky was white and the horses were out of breath, and then they stopped a little.

Looking at Zhang Liao, who was motionless on his horse, Deng Ai suddenly said: "The dead are gone, our trip is dangerous, and we can't always carry General Zhang's body." ”

"It's better to find a place with beautiful mountains and rivers first, bury General Zhang, and after the war subsides in the future, it's not too late to move the grave."

Although everyone was sad in their hearts, they all nodded.

They even took the initiative to ask for help burying Zhang Liao's body, but Deng Ai stopped everyone on the grounds that the place where the body was buried needed to be kept secret.

Even, Deng Ai hinted that Zhang Liao's personal soldiers guarded Zhang Liao's body tightly, and did not let others get close at all.

Even though there are many generals and colonels in Guanzhong, there are quite a few complaints about this matter, Deng Ai still insists on going his own way.

Subsequently, Deng Ai took some of Zhang Liao's personal soldiers and left everyone's sight to bury Zhang Liao.

After a long time, Deng Ai came back with two personal guards, and the rest of the people asked in surprise: "Where are all General Zhang's personal guards?" ”

"They were guarding next to General Zhang's grave, ready to protect General Zhang's body until the end of this war," Deng Ai said. ”

When everyone heard this, they sighed and sighed for the loyalty of these pro-soldiers.

After burying Zhang Liao, Deng Ai continued to drive west with a few hundred people, and after a certain distance, he turned northeast again, preparing to report to Hao Zhao.

However, Deng Ai still underestimated Zhou Yu's blockade of the road.

After capturing the Guanzhong military camp, Zhou Yu immediately gave the Euphorbia some war horses and asked them to block the roads leading to Jiguan in various places.

Because Deng Ai and the others diverted and buried Zhang Liao for some time, they actually encountered the Euphorbia.

Deng Ai looked at the five hundred halberds in front of him, his brows furrowed slightly, and then he gave the order to charge without hesitation.

"Kill!"

Deng Ai took the lead, brandished the spear in his hand, and rushed into the formation first.

The cavalry that followed closely behind Deng Ai also launched a fierce charge at the Euphorbia.

However, although the halberd warriors had war horses, they all abandoned their horses to face the battle, and the halberds in the hands of each soldier exuded a little cold light.

"Poof!"

"Poof!"

"Poof!"

At the beginning of this encounter, the Guanzhong cavalry suffered huge casualties, and they all underestimated the combat effectiveness of the halberds.

At the beginning, when the Xiandeng camp under Ju Yi was not yet established, the Euphorbia was the main combat force against the White Horse Yicong.

Although the Euphorbia is not the opponent of the White Horse Warrior, he can repeatedly protect himself in the process of fighting with the White Horse Servant, and the horror of the Euphorbia can also be seen.

It must be known that White Horse Yixian is not an ordinary cavalryman.

Under the leadership of Gongsun Zhan, they were famous and killed, and the Wuhuan people who were good at riding and fighting changed color.

The combat effectiveness of the white horse is even above that of the tiger and leopard.

By analogy, the combat effectiveness of the Euphorbia is definitely not weak, and they use long weapons, which are also useful for restraint when dealing with cavalry.

Although the Guanzhong cavalry is elite, it is still much inferior to the white horse Yicong and the tiger and leopard cavalry.

Moreover, these Guanzhong cavalry were all defeated divisions, and they fled non-stop for a long time, and since they were not as numerous as the Euphorbia, they quickly fell to the disadvantage after the battle.

"Brothers, rush over and report to General Hao Zhao, I'll cut off the queen!"

Deng Ai watched the soldiers fall to the ground, and immediately shouted loudly and rushed to the death.

Although Deng Ai has not yet reached the crown, he has been extremely brave, and with the cooperation of the Guanzhong cavalry, he finally broke through a gap in the halberds.

It's just that Deng Ai didn't take the opportunity to escape, but took his personal guards and turned back to contain the halberd warriors and fight for the rest of the soldiers to escape.

In the end, nearly 300 people rushed over, but after they rushed out, they didn't wait for Deng Ai.

None of the soldiers who followed Deng Ai escaped.

The fleeing Guanzhong cavalry kept inquiring about Deng Ai's news, but they couldn't find out anyway.

Some people say that Deng Ai was killed by the halberd soldiers after the break, and the soldiers who followed him also died.

It is also said that Deng Ai was captured by the Euphorbia.

Others say that Deng Ai fled.

For a time, rumors swirled.

It's just that no matter how they guessed and were unwilling, they still resolutely rushed to Jiguan and reported to Hao Zhao.
