Zhang Yan led a group of 5,000 cavalry including Zhang Liao, Xu Chu, Gan Ning, and Lü Meng, and quickly chased forward along the traces left by the Cao army, and according to the scout's report, they were less than ten miles away from the Cao army.

The speed of the cavalry was very fast, and it was not long before they walked five miles. Zhang Yan noticed that the closer he got to the enemy, the more excited the group of people behind him became.

This group of people are all professional soldiers, and as long as there is a battle, they are very excited, as if they have itchy hands without killing a few people.

Continued to gallop forward for three miles, when Zhang Yan and the others passed through a forest, suddenly a loud "boom" came from not far behind Zhang Yan, this kind of sound Zhang Yan couldn't be more familiar, and a strong smell of gunpowder also wafted over, very pungent.

Zhang Yan hurriedly turned his face to look behind him, but saw that more than a dozen cavalrymen instantly turned on their backs, and three of the soldiers were suddenly blown apart, blood was splashed on the ground, and the war horses under the seat were also killed.

At this moment, a series of explosions sounded on both sides of the road, and the advancing army suddenly became chaotic and fled in all directions.

"Boom! Rumble! Rumble! Rumble! Boom ......"

The explosion sounded continuously, killing more than 200 cavalrymen in an instant, and then, in the woods on both sides of the road, clusters of arrows flew over, and the already panicked cavalry gate was completely defenseless, and was instantly shot to death.

"Spread out! Disperse! Zhang Yan shouted loudly while waving the weapon in his hand to block the arrows that were being fired.

Fortunately, this group of cavalry were well-trained professional soldiers, and they quickly regained their composure and dispersed in groups. The horse rushed in the direction the arrow had come from.

The army was divided into hundreds of forces. Killed on both sides of the road.

In charge of commanding the battle was Jun Sima. He saw that the enemy was outnumbered, and all of them were cavalry, and the weapon of Thunderbolt Fire and Thunder had been used up, and it was impossible to count on these archers under his command to annihilate these cavalry.

Anyway, the task given to him by Han Fan was to ambush the enemy army, and he had already ambushed the enemy army and killed almost more than five hundred enemy soldiers. It's a mission accomplished.

As soon as he thought of this, Jun Sima immediately ordered a retreat, and he himself ran away, running faster than anyone else, and ran away without a trace.

As soon as Jun Sima ran away, the Cao army that was ambushed here was suddenly leaderless, and they had no fighting spirit and fled in all directions.

Zhang Yan, Zhang Liao, Xu Chu, Gan Ning, Lü Meng and others respectively commanded the cavalry to pursue, although the woods were not conducive to the cavalry to advance. But after all, there are many of them, and they are outflanked left and right. Coupled with the fast movement speed, he quickly caught up with the ambush soldiers, and when he raised the blade in his hand, it was a burst of slashing, and the killing Cao Jun was full of urine, screaming again and again, and the blood almost stained the entire forest.

"Poor Kou Mo Chase!" Zhang Yan saw that the enemy had run away, and immediately stopped the soldiers who wanted to pursue, in his opinion, these ambushed Cao troops were just some rabble, even if they were killed, it would not be of great significance.

Zhang Yan's target was not this rabble, but Cao Cao. Only by killing Cao Cao will his heart really calm down.

Therefore, Zhang Yan regrouped the cavalry, leaving 200 cavalry to be responsible for cleaning up the place, burying his own fallen soldiers, and counting them so that the families of these soldiers could be paid pensions after the war.

Zhang Yan regrouped his troops and horses, and continued to chase forward with his army, this time, they increased their speed, and since they were ambushed once, they became more cautious.

Zhang Yan asked Zhang Liao and Xu Chu to lead a thousand cavalry each, scattered on the left and right flanks, and advanced in the shape of "Pin".

In addition, Zhang Yan also sent a number of scouts to investigate!

Because Cao Jun obtained the formula for the thunderbolt bomb, Zhang Yan acted very carefully, for fear that a similar situation would occur again. Of the more than 500 cavalrymen, which one is not an elite soldier? If you fight with a knife and a gun, you can use one as ten, or even one as a hundred.

However, in the face of extremely lethal thunderbolts, these are flesh-and-blood soldiers, and they are not vulnerable at all.

However, Zhang Yan never regretted that he had invented gunpowder in advance, and in his opinion, as long as it was a war, there would be casualties.

In addition, it is precisely because of the extremely lethal power of gunpowder that Zhang Yan wants to use gunpowder to end the war as soon as possible, unify the whole country, and then establish a prosperous dynasty.

After a while, the scouts came to give a report, and about ten miles ahead, they found traces of the enemy.

Zhang Yan frowned, and immediately ordered: "Speed up!" ”

The army went all the way forward, and along the way met many people who sat down to rest because they were tired of walking, and those people were terrified when they saw Zhang Yan's army chasing after them, and they thought they would wield butcher knives to kill them, but they saw these cavalrymen in orange and red uniforms ignoring them and just blindly pursuing them.

Ten miles of road is not too long, but because there are many people with families scattered on this road, Zhang Yan's army had to go around, so it took some time.

After running ten miles, he found that Cao Jun, who had been resting here, was gone.

Zhang Yan then ordered to continue the chase, and walked about five miles, and saw that there was dust in front of him, and about 10,000 Cao soldiers wearing black military uniforms were rushing to run forward desperately, throwing away their armor and failing to form an army.

When Zhang Yan saw such a scene, he could no longer suppress the joy in his heart, and shouted loudly: "Cao Cao must be in there, chase after him, if anyone can kill Cao Cao, seal the marquis of a thousand households, and reward a thousand gold!" ”

Under the heavy reward, there will be brave men!

What's more, the army led by Zhang Yan, even if there is no heavy reward, is all brave and incomparable.

As soon as Gan Ning heard Zhang Yan's shout, he immediately became energetic, and he didn't care about his left arm injury, so he galloped wildly, like an arrow off the string, and chased forward like flying, and the speed of the war horse under his seat was also like a chicken blood, and it instantly showed amazing explosive power, and even overtook Zhang Yan, who was riding a dark cloud snow horse, and rushed to the front.

After Zhang Yan saw it, his heart was covered with a layer of sadness.

The dark cloud snow horse under his seat is a good horse from Wusun, traveling thousands of miles in a day, eight hundred in the night, but Zang Ba spent a lot of money to buy, he surrendered this good horse by chance, and since then he has ridden it across the battlefield, invincible.

However, as time goes by, the dark cloud snow horse is getting older and older, and it has also passed the golden age of a war horse, and now its physical strength and endurance are not as good as before.

And the war horse under Gan Ning's seat was purchased from Wuhuan, and at this time it was when he was young and strong, not only with endurance, but also with explosive power.

The moment just now was enough to prove the quality of the war horse under Gan Ning's seat, and at the same time, it also made Zhang Yan feel a trace of sympathy for the dark cloud stepping snow horse under the seat.

Looking at the past, he rode the dark cloud snow horse which time was not in the front, leaving the rest of the cavalry far behind, but now, someone can finally surpass him, it is really the back waves of the Yangtze River pushing the front waves, and one wave is stronger than the other.

It can be seen that the Dark Cloud Stepping Snow Horse is indeed old and no longer suitable for charging into battle, and it seems that he will have to find another good horse in the future.

Gan Ning took the lead, and soon caught up with those Cao Jun, brandished the steel knife in his hand, and slashed towards Cao Jun, the knife fell in his hand, only to hear a scream, and a fresh human head flew into the air, blood splashed everywhere, gushing endlessly, making Gan Ning covered in blood.

At the same time, on Zhang Yan's right hand, Zhang Liao's horse, riding a spear, also joined the battle circle, and then, Xu Chu also killed from the left, and the three fierce generals fought side by side, advancing head to head, like three sharp knives, directly inserted into the flesh of the enemy, like a bamboo, and soon killed a bloody road.

Immediately afterwards, the three cavalry killed at the same time, Gan Ning tightly bit the tail of the enemy, Xu Chu and Zhang Liao led the cavalry to assist from both wings, and the three of them cooperated tacitly, and the Cao army who killed was full of urine.

The Cao army was attacked, and it became even more panicked, and the Cao army in the front was even more scrambling to flee for his life.

Zhang Yan and others covered up all the way, and the corpses of Cao Jun were as high as 1,000 people, and when Zhang Yan and others were on the rise, they suddenly heard a bang, and countless arrows flew from both sides of the road.

"Ahh

Zhang Yan's army was on the rise, and no one noticed that in the terrain around them, thousands of Cao troops appeared from the dry ditches on both sides of the road, and they all held crossbow machines and shot at Zhang Yan and others who were chasing and killing Cao Jun.

"Whoosh Whoosh ......"

Zhang Yan and the others were completely defenseless, and they couldn't imagine that the Cao army, which had already dispersed, still had an ambush, and those arrows not only shot at the cavalry on horseback, but also shot at the war horse under the cavalry.

In front of Cao Jun's powerful arrow array, hundreds of horses were shot down, and the knights on horseback were also shot, and the blood flowed on the official road and the corpses were piled up.

"Herod—"

The dark cloud stepping snow horse under Zhang Yan's seat let out a miserable long neigh, and more than a dozen arrows were hit on his body, and blood continued to flow out, and his whole body was blood-red.

However, the dark cloud stepping snow horse did not fall, and after a long neigh, he ran forward with Zhang Yan for more than a mile in great pain, and after taking Zhang Yan out of the ambush circle, he fell to the ground with a bang.

Zhang Yan was overturned from the horse and rolled to the side, and at this time, the dark cloud snowhorse fell to the ground, bleeding nonstop, it was already dying, and it kept snorting, and a pair of black eyes looked at Zhang Yan in the distance, and after a while, he closed his eyes and stopped moving.

"Dark clouds treading snow!" Zhang Yan saw that the war horse under the seat was no longer moving, so he cried out angrily, got up, and quickly ran towards the dark cloud snow horse.

"Whoosh ......"

Suddenly, a series of arrows shot towards Zhang Yan, Zhang Yan, who was running, was defenseless, seeing that the arrows were about to be shot, Zhang Yan wanted to dodge again, it was already too late, a little cold glow exuded the breath of death and attacked him, his heart chuckled, and a thought quickly flashed in his mind: "Am I going to die like this?" I'm not reconciled! Unwilling! (To be continued......)
