In the dark night, the Xianbei Iron Rider swept in.

The vital parts of these chained horses were wrapped in armor and connected to each other by chains as thick as a baby's arm, and each hundred horses were lined up in a row. The Xianbei knight on the horse was even more fully armed, wearing thick armor, holding a shield in his left hand and a battle axe in his right hand. As the team moved forward, it was like a huge fishing net, and wherever it went, all the foot soldiers in front of it were cut down in front of the horse, and those who stood in the way were invincible, and flesh and blood flew everywhere.

"The whole army moves to the right and besieges Ran Min!"

Ran Min was shocked outside, and the Hu people were all lost when they heard it. Murong Han is known as the first warrior of Xianbei, and he was killed by Ran Min in seconds, and Murong Chui, who had a cautious personality, naturally did not dare to rush too far forward, hiding in the Chinese army waving a long lance, and commanding a chain of horses to encircle and suppress Ran Min.

"Kill, kill the dog!"

The Han people, who were cut off by the Hun cavalry, had blood-red eyes, brandished the swords and guns in their hands, and the smoke and dust billowing under their feet, desperately moving forward to meet the unstoppable Xianbei iron cavalry. But it was like a mantis arm as a car in vain, and he was knocked to the ground by a chain of war horses in an instant, and then trampled by rumbling iron hooves......

The Xianbei chain of horses in the night was like a combine harvester, cutting Ran Min's soldiers to the ground one by one wherever they went, and kept harvesting human heads. With every axe slash, blood splatters in the air; Every time the horse's hooves step down, there is a sound of bones breaking......

"Rush, fight with Hugou!"

Seeing the flesh and blood of the infantry killed, the only five or six thousand knights under Ran Min raised their spears one after another, marched forward bravely, and tried their best to fight with the Xianbei cavalry.

It's just that the Xianbei war horse breed is excellent. Tall and vigorous, most of the horses of the cavalry under Ran Min were snatched or bought from the hands of ordinary people, merchants, and gentry. The good and the bad are uneven, and the combat effectiveness is low. What's more, Xianbei people have learned riding since childhood. It can be said that it is a nation that grew up on horseback, and the skill of controlling the strings is not inferior to that of the Huns, and the riding skill is not at all comparable to the team under Ran Min, which is based on the backbone of the rebel army.

When the two sides fought together, the screams came and went, most of which were Han people who were shot and fell off their horses, or accidentally fell off their horses and died under the hands of the Xianbei cavalry. The ratio of casualties on both sides was almost five to one, and the Han people had to pay five lives to barely kill a Xianbei knight. As the war progressed. The number of Han troops was sharply reduced.

The house leak happened to be rainy, and when the Ran Min army fell into a bitter battle, Jebe led the Hun cavalry to be killed in the back.

"The warriors of the Huns, give me the courage to move forward, and the first person who gets the head of Ran Min will be crowned a big household, and the horses will be rewarded with 500 horses, and 50 Han women!" Jebel galloped with the reins in his hands, and kept bending his bow and arrows, and the bowstring sounded. A Han man will fall.

There were Xianbei in front and Xiongnu in the back, and the men and horses led by Ran Min fell into a desperate situation, and with the shouts one after another, people kept falling on the battlefield. The battle lasted just over an hour. Half of Ran Min's team had already been lost.

"The sons and daughters of the Han family, today is only death, staining this land with our blood!" Ran Min roared and moved forward. "If you can kill one, you can kill one and earn one. Let's fight to the death! ”

With a roar, Ran Min struggled forward. The hook halberd in his left hand reached forward, and at once grabbed a column of chain horses that rushed to the front, and the spear in his right hand stabbed forward fiercely, picking the Xianbei knight on the horse into the air.

"Fall for me!" Ran Min stuck the spear on the ground, grabbed the hook halberd with both hands, and pulled it into his arms with all his strength.

The iron ropes creaked and sparks flew in the night. One hundred and ten war horses were pulled and neighed in horror, and the formation was suddenly chaotic.

The dozen or so war horses next to Ran Min were the heaviest, and under the huge drag force, many horses could not support their front legs, and they fell to the ground one after another, lifting off the knights on the horses. The Han people took the opportunity to rush up, slashed these Xianbei knights who fell under their horses into meat sauce, and grew a vicious breath in their hearts.

Seeing that this method worked, Ran Min continued to concoct the same method, rode his horse in the chaos of the army, and when he saw the opportunity, he grabbed the iron rope connecting the chain horses with his hook halberd, and pulled it fiercely with all his strength, dragging the neighboring war horses to the ground. Then the soldiers behind him slashed and slashed the Xianbei knight who fell from his horse.

Ran Min used this method to drag down more than a hundred war horses in a row, destroyed two columns of chain horses, and let the soldiers behind him retaliate and kill more than a hundred Xianbei knights.

"Ran Min's mount is already weak, continue to charge forward for me, and if you don't winc, you won't be forgiven!" Murong Chui brandished his horse lance to assassinate several Xianbei people who were cowering and slowing down the queue, and loudly urged the chain horses to charge forward.

Encouraged by Murong Chui, the Xianbei knight mustered up his courage, drove the chain of horses, and brandished his axe and shield to encircle and suppress Ran Min again.

Ran Min once again brandished his halberd to lock up a row of horses rushing to the front, roared angrily, and pulled the iron rope vigorously. When many Xianbei war horses neighed in horror, their footing was unstable, and they trampled on each other, the mounts under Ran Min's crotch could not support them, and their legs were weak and they fell to the ground.

"Kill, kill Ran Min!"

Seeing Ran Min stumbling and falling from his horse, the Xianbei knights were overjoyed one by one, and they all waved their axes and shields and pounced.

Ran Min was not in a panic, jumped up from the ground, held a hook halberd in his left hand, and a double-edged spear in his right hand, and pushed forward with his chest against the iron cable, dragging the chain of horses backwards step by step, and people shouted that the horses neighed, and there was a big chaos. The first and second columns were crowded together, trampling and colliding with each other, and becoming a mess.

Ran Min roared and slashed hard, slashing horses with a halberd in his left hand and stabbing people with a spear in his right hand; Every time the halberd goes down, a horse's leg will be cut off, and every shot will pick out a Xianbei knight. In the melee, he wounded 100 horses and assassinated 100 Xianbei knights.

Seeing that Ran Min was like a god descending from heaven, the soldiers behind him fought bravely, risking their lives and forgetting their lives to follow Ran Min with knives and guns, and launched a desperate hand-to-hand fight with the Xianbei people's chain of horses, and at the same time that their side kept falling to the ground, they also slashed and killed countless Xianbei soldiers.

Although Ran Min led his troops to withstand Xianbei's chain of horses, there was no one behind him who could stop the Hun iron horse. Jebe led his troops to charge forward, seeing that he was getting closer and closer to Ran Min, he quietly bent his bow and arrows in the chaotic army, and ran towards Ran Min's back is an arrow.

The arrow from the string shot at Ran Min with the sound of the wind, and with a "duh" sound, it pierced through the armor and pierced Ran Min's shoulder, causing a burst of pain to the bone, and he could no longer use his strength.

"Ran Min was hit by an arrow, Ran Min was hit by an arrow!"

The Xianbei people were overjoyed, and they rushed forward with shouts, intending to snatch the head and take the first credit. However, there are pros and cons to the chain horses, when they maintain the formation, they are very powerful, and once they fall into chaos, they will pull each other and the formation will be chaotic.

Murong Chui was furious, brandished a long lance to assassinate several people again, and shouted loudly: "Don't rob, the whole army moves forward and wraps Ran Min into the team!" ”

Under Murong Chui's supervision, the Xianbei Serial Horse regained order and advanced in formation, forcing the wounded Ran Min and his subordinates back step by step. And the Hun iron cavalry behind Ran Min's army was also approaching step by step, and they were about to encircle with the Xianbei chain of horses, sandwiching Ran Min and his subordinates in the middle like two walls. Heaven and earth, it seems that there is no way to escape!

"Where righteousness goes, life and death go hand in hand! The sky can be learned, and the white horse is the proof! ”

Under the cover of night, a neatly arranged cavalry team suddenly appeared from the east, and under the light of starry torches, it could be vaguely seen that all of them were white horses, sweeping like frost and snow in the vast wilderness.

"Huh...... Gongsun Zhan's white horse righteous servant? Murong Ke, Murong Chui, and Jebe were almost all taken aback, but they didn't expect the White Horse Yicong under Gongsun Zhan's command to quietly come to help.

"Block the white horse and don't let Ran Min go!" Murong Ke was slightly stunned, and immediately dispatched a cavalry to intercept it.

In the midst of the chaos, Luo Cheng held a five-hook god flying silver spear, took the lead, and led the team to charge, "Release the arrow!" ”

With Luo Cheng's order, seven thousand white horses galloped from one side to the other, and at the same time pulled their bows and galloped.

The white horse under Gongsun Zhan is all selected high-quality horses, and the knights on the horse are also carefully selected, and their riding skills are not inferior to those of the Hu people. The feather arrows in their hands are all specially made weapons, with a long range, fast rate of fire, sharp arrows, and several waves of angry shots in a row, shooting the oncoming Xianbei cavalry one after another, and they screamed.

Luo Cheng rode his horse and raised his gun, and there was no enemy everywhere he went, all of them stabbed under the horse, and it didn't take long to kill near Ran Minjun, shouting loudly: "Luo Cheng came to the rescue on the order of his father-in-law, please follow me to fight out of the encirclement!" ”

Seeing that the general trend was gone, Ran Min stabbed down a Xianbei general with a spear, grabbed the horse and broke through side by side with Luo Cheng, leading the remnants of the army behind him to defeat and fight. Luo Cheng led Bai Mayi from the back of the palace and covered Ran Min's retreat to the east.

Murong Ke and Zhebei were willing to give up, and led their troops to the east to chase after them. The two sides chased after each other in the wilderness, fighting and walking all the way, fighting until dawn, and it was still difficult to separate.

In the melee, Gongsun Chan and Tian Yu led a cavalry of 5,000 people from the foot of a mountain to join the melee, "Brother Ran, don't panic, Gongsun Chan is here!" ”

The two sides continued to fight in the wilderness, and the white horse was from the elite, but the Xiongnu and Xianbei combined forces were strong, with nearly 50,000 cavalry against Gongsun Zhan's 13,000 cavalry, plus Ran Min's 3,000 or 4,000 remnants of the defeated army, still had the upper hand.

In the fierce battle, the flag was waved in the south, and an elite heavy cavalry rushed to attack, about 5,000 horsemen, it was the tiger and leopard cavalry that had just been formed under Cao Cao, and 10,000 light cavalry seats followed.

The leading generals were Xiahou Yuan, Xia Luqi, and Wang Yanzhang, and they shouted in unison: "We are ordered by Cao Gong to secretly go to Yanshan, intercept and kill the thieves, and we will not get off the horse and die!" ”

In the wilderness, there was a melee between the three sides, the Cao army and the Gongsun Zhan army attacked left and right, and the Xiongnu and Xianbei coalition forces fought hard and could not win, leaving thousands of horses and corpses behind, and retreating north. Cao's army retreated to Fanyang, and Gongsun Zan led his troops to escort Ran Min to Jixian, the base camp. (To be continued......)
