1.42 million arrows pierced the heart
Under the heavy reward, there will be brave men.
Zhang Yanwanjin's desire to buy Cao Cao's head greatly stimulated the soldiers.
Tai Shici, Xu Chu and others all rushed forward with the cavalry, and Zhang Yan rode the dark cloud on the snow horse, and he took the lead and rushed to the front.
For a while, the official road was dusty, and the sound of thunderous horses' hooves made the earth tremble.
The sky gradually brightened, Zhang Yan and others chased for seven or eight miles in a row, and then they vaguely saw the Lu army's foot soldiers marching forward, and the official road was scattered with Cao Jun's armor, flags, weapons, and grain and grass baggage, and those foot soldiers were happily picking up the things left by Cao Jun.
Seeing such a scene, Zhang Yan could basically imagine the scene of Cao Jun throwing away his armor and fleeing in embarrassment.
But on the official road, Zhang Yan didn't see Lu Bu, let alone Song Xian and Hou Cheng, and asked about Lu Jun's foot soldiers, only to know that Lu Bu took Song Xian, Hou Cheng and Bingzhou wolf cavalry to pursue Cao Cao, and left them here from afar.
So, Zhang Yan did not stop at all, and continued to lead the army to chase forward.
After chasing for two or three miles, Zhang Yan suddenly saw that Lu Bu led more than 300 wolf cavalry such as Song Xian and Hou Cheng in front of him, and was engaged in a vicious battle with Xiahou Yuan, the general of the Cao army.
Seeing this, Zhang Yan immediately ordered Tai Shici and Xu Chu to scatter on both wings, outflank left and right, and attack in three directions, wanting to flank Xiahou Yuan.
Xiahou Yuan was fighting with Lu Bu when he suddenly saw Zhang Yan leading the army to kill, stabbed out the machine gun indiscriminately, forced Lu Bu away, turned the horse's head, and ran away immediately.
Lu Bu Fangtian waved his halberd, wanting to block Xiahou Yuan's way, but it was too late, and he was blocked by Xiahou Yuan's personal entourage.
"Withdraw! Retreat! Xiahou Yuan shouted loudly as he fled.
Cao's army only left more than 100 cavalry to block Lu Bu and the others, and the rest all fled with Xiahou Yuan.
Zhang Yan, Tai Shici, and Xu Chu were killed here, and together with Lu Bu, Song Xian, and Hou Cheng, they killed Cao Jun, who was responsible for blocking the way.
Seeing each other at the same time, Zhang Yan saw that Lu Bu had already stained his armor with blood, and his eyes were even more red, so he asked, "What about Cao Cao?" ”
Lu Budao: "You came just in time, Cao Cao has been defeated by me, only a few hundred remnants are left, not far ahead, you and I move forward side by side, chase together, and wait to kill Cao Cao, Yanzhou and half of us!" ”
Zhang Yan didn't hesitate at all, and a wave of blood rushed to the top of his head, and after staying up for so long, he finally waited for this time. He immediately turned his head and yelled at his subordinates: "Brothers, Cao Cao is ahead, the time has come for us to avenge the people of Xuzhou, rush side by side!" ”
As soon as these words came out, the cavalry behind Zhang Yan were all filled with righteous indignation, and their faces were full of anger, most of these cavalry were from Xuzhou, and they all hated Cao Cao's evil deeds in Xuzhou, and they were naturally happy to have the opportunity to kill Cao Cao today.
As a result, the crowd was excited, coupled with Zhang Yan's previous Wanjin desire to buy Cao Cao's head, infinite motivation emerged in his heart, and he rushed forward with Zhang Yan.
Lu Bu was even more impatient, holding Fang Tian's halberd, and as soon as he pulled the reins of the red rabbit horse under the seat, it was like an arrow off the string, and he rushed out like a fly, and with a slick of smoke, he had already galloped far away.
"Lu Bu among the people, red rabbit among the horses! The explosive power of this red rabbit horse is really extraordinary, and this speed is even faster than the dark cloud stepping snow horse! Seeing Lu Bu flying out like an arrow, Zhang Yan's heart was extremely envious.
Lu Bu took the lead, Zhang Yan was not far behind, and hurriedly pursued Tai Shici, Xu Chu and others, while Song Xian and Hou Cheng were also mixed in Zhang Yan's team, and everyone scrambled to be the first.
Lu Bu's red rabbit horse ran fast, and soon left Zhang Yan and the others behind, and chased Xiahou Yuan alone.
"Xiahou Yuanxiu is gone!" While Lu Bu was chasing, he shouted loudly at Xiahou Yuan in front of him.
After chasing for three miles in a row, and seeing that he was about to catch up, Xiahou Yuan suddenly reined in his horse and stopped on the side of the road, and the cavalry behind him all stopped, turning their horses' heads one after another, all of them were fierce and vicious, and looked at Lu Bu with deep hatred.
Lu Bu suddenly saw Xiahou Yuan stop, and his heart was overjoyed, but things were beyond his expectations, only to see Xiahou Yuan raise the spear in his hand high, and wave it vigorously, ambushes on both sides of the road appeared, and a thousand crossbowmen who were waiting for the crossbow machine held the crossbow machine, and they pulled the crossbow machine one after another, and hundreds of crossbow arrows shot towards Lu Bu like a storm.
"Whoosh ......"
The crossbow arrows pierced the sky, densely packed, like flying locusts, flying towards Lu Bu impartially.
Lu Bu was taken aback, he never thought that Cao Jun would still have an ambush here, he hurriedly waved the Fang Tian painting halberd in his hand, and danced quickly, the halberd method was as fast as lightning, and the shadow of Fang Tian's painting halberd covered Lu Bu's entire body, forming an impermeable wall, blocking the crossbow arrows shot one by one.
"Lu Bu, eat me with an arrow!" At the same time, Xiahou Yuan also pulled out the bowstring, and there was a sharp arrow on the bowstring, and that arrow was the one that shot Xiahou Yuan blind, but now he was used to deal with Lu Bu.
"Whew-"
The arrow with a sharp force, under the illumination of the morning sun, refracted a cold light, which pierced the sky, like a lightning, fleeting, and even penetrated through the defensive wall woven by Lu Bu, impartially, directly into his eye socket.
"Ahh
Lu Bu suddenly let out a miserable scream, the blood in his left eye flowed, the pain was unbearable, and the Fang Tian painting halberd that was dancing in his hand also stopped suddenly, and one after another crossbow arrows hit his huge body, even the red rabbit horse under his seat was not spared, Lu Bu was shot into a hedgehog even with people and horses, and blood continued to seep out from all over his body.
"Herod'......"
The red rabbit horse let out a miserable scream, and with a "boom" sound, together with Lu Bu on his back, he fell to the ground, panting heavily, and he was already dying.
"Brother Fengxian!"
Zhang Yan led the crowd to kill, and happened to see the scene of Lu Bulian leading his horse to be shot by arrows, so he shouted loudly.
Seeing Zhang Yan and the others coming, Xiahou Yuan did not retreat, but instead let the crossbowman shoot a cluster of arrows towards Lu Bu's location.
"Whoosh ......"
Countless arrows fell on Lu Bu's body, and even the land around Lu Bu was full of arrows, dense, like a primeval forest......
Under the blow of such a sharp arrow, Lu Bu and Chitu Ma had already lost their breath, and fell in a pool of blood, not even moving.
Seeing that Lu Bu was pierced by ten thousand arrows, Zhang Yan immediately asked Tai Shici and Xu Chu to lead a cavalry to kill the crossbowmen on both sides of the road, and he himself killed Xiahou Yuan.
And Lu Bu's subordinates Song Xian and Hou Cheng, seeing that Lu Bu was killed, were all sad and indignant, and followed Zhang Yan and rushed to Xiahou Yuan.
Xiahou Yuan saw that Zhang Yan led more than 3,000 cavalry to rush over, but instead of leaving, he shook his spirits, pulled out the big bow in his hand, took out an arrow from his back, and put it on the bowstring.
Zhang Yan frowned, thinking that Xiahou Yuan was going to shoot himself with a bow and arrow, he clenched the steel gun in his hand and took precautions at any time. Who knows, Xiahou Yuan actually looked up to the sky and shot an arrow, and the arrow was shot into the air with a "whoosh" sound, and let out a strange cry of "chirp".
Just a moment after the arrow shot into the sky, countless Cao troops emerged from all directions, and the sound of shouting for a while was deafening, rushing straight into Xiao Han.
Behind Xiahou Yuan, hundreds of cavalry rushed directly, Xiahou Yuan looked even more fearless, and his face was even more proud.
Zhang Yan suddenly reined in the horses and hurriedly looked around, but saw that there were Cao troops in all directions, and he didn't know how many people came, Cao Hong on the left and Li Dian on the right, all of them pulled their bows and crossbows, and shot at them indiscriminately.
"It's a trick, it's a trick!" Zhang Yan's first reaction was to be in the middle of the plan, he saw that Xiahou Yuan in front of him was leading the army to rush, and the cavalry led by himself was ambushed by the powerful arrow array of the Cao army, many of them turned on their backs and were killed by arrows, he glanced at the corpses of Lu Bu and Chitu Ma on the ground, gritted his teeth, immediately turned the horse's head, and hurriedly shouted: "Retreat!" Retreat! ”
Tai Shi Ci and Xu Chu led the troops to rush away from the original 1,000 crossbowmen, but in the face of the sudden appearance of more Cao Jun crossbowmen, they were a little powerless, and after hearing Zhang Yan's retreat order, they quickly led the cavalry to retreat.
However, Song Xian and Hou Cheng continued to rush forward with the cavalry, and they soon rushed to Lu Bu's corpse, wanting to take Lu Bu's corpse away, but Xiahou Yuan led the crowd to kill, put away a shot, and stabbed Song Xian to death.
Hou Cheng was taken aback, turned the horse's head, and wanted to escape, but Xiahou Yuan threw the iron gun in his hand and pierced Hou Cheng's body from behind, Hou Cheng screamed miserably, and fell off the horse.
The rest of the wolf riders in the state fought fiercely with Cao Bing, but were attacked by Xiahou Yuan, Cao Hong, Li Dian and others on three sides, and all of them were killed.
Zhang Yan, Tai Shici, and Xu Chu escaped with the cavalry, but who knew that they had just walked two miles, but they were ambushed by Cao's army again.
On both sides of the road, the crossbowmen kept releasing arrows, and the fierce general of the Cao army, Dian Wei, led the army to block the way, and surrounded Zhang Yan, Tai Shici, Xu Chu and others, suffering from the three-sided attack of the Cao army, and suffered heavy losses.
At this time, Cao Cao ascended a high post, and Xun You, Guo Jia, and Cheng Yu lined up behind Cao Cao. Cao Cao condescended, looked at Zhang Yan and the others who were surrounded, and said, "Zhang Yan, today next year is your death day!" Shoot the arrows! ”
With Cao Cao's order, Cao Jun's arrows rained down, constantly firing arrows at Zhang Yan, Tai Shici, and Xu Chu, the Xuzhou soldiers screamed again and again, and the war horses continued to let out miserable long neighs!
It wasn't until this moment that Zhang Yan figured out that Cao Cao was casting a long line to catch a big fish, not only killing Lu Bu, but also wanting to kill himself.
It seems that he is facing Cao Cao head-on, and with his intelligence alone, he really can't fight Cao Cao. knew that now, he should have brought Chen Qi and Zhang Hong with him!
Now that he is under siege, Zhang Yan does not accept his fate. He looked around and saw that there were more than 1,000 cavalry around him, and if he wanted to launch a collective charge, Cao's army might not be able to resist it.
So, Zhang Yan was ready to give it a go.
While swinging his spear to block the incoming arrows, he shouted to his subordinates: "When we meet on a narrow road, the brave wins!" Brethren, rush out with me! ”
