The flag fluttering in the wind rolls and chases the waves, accompanied by the dust, and dances with the suffocating blood mist.

On the princes' car, Cao Cao stood with his sword in his hand, looking at the Xiliang Iron Rider who was getting closer and closer with a gloomy face, his eyes were murderous, and his whole body was full of murderous energy.

"War horses rushing into battle? Maybe only Li Wenchang in this world would use such a luxurious way to charge through the siege, he is really bold and courageous! ”

Staring coldly at the dozens of ownerless war horses that were rushing towards him, Cao Cao frowned, clenched his sword in his right hand, and secretly thought to himself, a trace of retreat flashed in his eyes. However, when he saw Li Li who was rushing left and right behind the war horse, his gaze became firm again, his cheeks straightened, as if he was clenching his teeth, and his heart, which was already a little shaken, instantly froze, solid as a rock, and there was no longer half of the heart to retreat.

"Ling Ling" There was a crisp sound, Cao Cao suddenly pulled out his sword, and the blade of the sword pointed directly at the Xiliang Iron Cavalry who rushed to kill him, and shouted: "The chariot is out of battle, kill ———! ”

"Chariot formation, kill me!" Cao Hong, who had been waiting for the order for a long time, immediately shouted, brandished his war knife and ordered the five hundred two-horse chariots behind him to meet the oncoming Xiliang Iron Cavalry.

"Knock knock——— boom!"

Dozens of war drums beat loudly, and hundreds of chariots were dispatched in response, and the rumbling sound went straight into the sky, avoiding the Chinese army's drive, and brazenly rushed towards the Xiliang army galloping on horseback.

Sigh!

Li Li on the horseback looked cold, carried the Jinqi war knife, and shouted loudly: "Roundabout rush into battle, the spear rejects the horse." Kill! ”

Before the words fell, the sword was cut into the air, and Li Li swooped down on his horse. Avoid the frontal chariot and rush straight to the edge of the chariot to the east. Behind him, Huan Fei and Gongsun Zhan glanced at each other, and then led the army into two with understanding. Huan Fei led his troops to follow Li Li to the east, and Gongsun Zan led his troops to attack the west, avoiding a frontal collision with the chariot array, and instead used a roundabout flank attack to attack Cao's chariot.

Obvious. When the crisis came, Huan Fei and Gongsun Zhan had the same goal as never before, and both took it as their responsibility to protect the safety of their lord Li Li. It was the only 10,000-strong armored iron cavalry under Huan Fei's tent to follow Li Li. Gongsun Chan led the remaining more than 10,000 light cavalry to attack the west of the chariot in order to disperse the enemy's attack targets.

In other words, the heavily armored iron cavalry under Huan Fei's tent is fully capable of attacking the chariot head-on and fighting a bloody way for the breakthrough army. But now he hasn't. Instead, he concentrated all the heavy cavalry to protect Li Li and fight his way out of the encirclement. This move is tantamount to giving up more than 10,000 light horsemen. Sacrifice the crowd and gather the strongest combat power to attack a little, just to protect Li Li and break through safely.

This was an extremely selfish decision, but Huan Fei and Gongsun Zhan didn't need to discuss, they only needed to look at each other and reach an agreement. I have to say that both of them are generals of Xiliang who have a strong sense of the overall situation and are loyal, and they are selfless at the critical moment, and they know that Li Li's safety is more important than that of more than 20,000 troops. Know how to make trade-offs.

"Da ——— boom!"

Ten thousand horses galloped, like thunder. Chariot crushed. The dust was flying, the earth trembled, and the wind resonated with it.

In the midst of the screaming sound of "Xiuxiu", he saw that the hundreds of Jinyi guards who followed Li Li to charge into battle pulled out the scimitars they were carrying, leaned over on the back of their horses, waved their arms, and threw the five-foot scimitar in their hands with all their might. Suddenly, with a piercing screech, the scimitar with its handle hovering and flying against the ground swept straight towards the oncoming two-horse chariot, killing the horse's leg of the chariot.

"Excuse me——— boom!" With the whistle of the scimitar circling in the air, I saw dozens of two-horse chariots suddenly lose their front hooves, and then tumble in the neighing and wailing of the war horses, falling people on their backs, and destroying the cars and killing people. And the destructive power of these dozens of chariots in the rolling is far more than just the destruction of vehicles and deaths. After a chariot is destroyed, it is bound to cause the chariots that follow it to make a U-turn and collide in a row; And after dozens of chariots are rolled over at the same time, it will inevitably cause a series of chariots to collide with each other, thus disrupting all the chariots in this area, causing them to fall into local chaos.

After all, once these tanks are impacted, it is not easy to stop suddenly, they have no "brakes". If the charioteer driving suddenly pulls the reins, it will inevitably cause the war horse to suffer pain and be frightened, and then directly lead the chariot to roll over, the result will inevitably be that the chariot will be destroyed and killed, while the chariot horse may be safe and sound.

In the loud sound of "bang bang", taking advantage of the chaos of the chariot formation, Li Li's troops rushed into the chariot formation, wielding knives to kill the horses, and the knives were on the horse's legs. At this moment, the generals swung their swords and cut off the legs of the horses, while the Xiliang cavalry was in groups of five, with the help of the impact of the war horses under the crotch, they overturned the chariot and slashed the charioteers.

Obviously, the Xiliang Iron Cavalry, which is known for its war cavalry, has a lot of experience in dealing with chariot charges, and the methods are proper, simple and effective, and the combat effectiveness is not inferior to that of the war cavalry.

However, no matter how fierce the Xiliang Iron Cavalry was, in the face of the fierce chariot strangulation, its casualties were still very large. Often destroying a chariot, three to five Xiliang cavalry died for it, and the death was very miserable, the scene was miserable and tragic.

Fortunately, Li Li did not choose to break through head-on, but made a roundabout side-attack. It is because the more than 10,000 war cavalry under his command faced not many chariots, only more than 100 before and after, which is not enough to intercept him and lead the army to break through.

"Li thief is gone! Cao Chun is here, and the tiger and leopard ride with me to kill! ”

Kankan rushed out of the chariot formation, Li Li and Huan Fei and other generals didn't have time to catch their breath, they heard a loud shout from the front, and then more than 5,000 tigers and leopards rushed straight over, and the leader was Cao Cao's personal guard commander Cao Chun Cao Zihe.

"Cao Zihe?" Li Li was stunned when he heard this, and immediately frowned, his face appeared cold, and his eyes flashed with murderous intent in his eyes.

This tiger and leopard cavalry was no stranger to Li Li, and for nearly a month before that, he could see this inseparable cavalry by Cao Cao's side almost every day. This is Cao Cao's greatest reliance on daring to risk his life, and it is precisely because of this cavalry to follow him that he has the courage to get along with Li Li at close range for more than 20 days.

And Cao Chun, the main general who commanded the tiger and leopard cavalry, once attracted Li Li's attention, and even Li Li was a little curious about Cao Chun. Because Cao Chun in history is not brilliant. His martial arts are far from his brother Cao Ren, and there is also a gap between him and Xiahou Yuan and Xiahou Dun's brothers, and even Cao Hong is not as good as him. can only be compared with Cao Zhen, Cao Xiu and other generals of the Cao family. The only thing that makes Cao Chun stand out is that he is the first commander of the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, and he is also the commander of the Praetorian Guard that Cao Cao relied on and trusted the most.

After more than 20 days of careful observation, Li Li could see that the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry was indeed a well-trained elite cavalry, not to mention the small number of cavalry, but each cavalry was a carefully selected Tiger Warrior, which could be called a hundred enemies. It is this cavalry that can really be regarded as a short and elite division. Its combat power is strong enough to be comparable to that of Jin Yiwei, and even the individual combat effectiveness of its ordinary soldiers is still above that of Jin Yiwei. After all, its scale is not large, only more than 5,000 people. but they were loyal and brave soldiers selected from hundreds of thousands of Cao troops; On the other hand, the Jinyi Guard Battalion has 30,000 people, so the combat effectiveness of individual soldiers is not as good as that of the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry.

But this does not mean that the Jinyi Guard Battalion is not as good as the Tiger and Leopard Ride. On the contrary, the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry are strong in individual combat, but their riding skills are not as good as those of the Jin Yiwei. The mutual cooperation in the fight is not as tacit as the cooperation of Jin Yiwei. It is in the case of equal forces. The tiger and leopard riders can fight head-on with Jin Yiwei without losing the upper hand, but they can't win, as if they are evenly divided. If it comes to the overall combat strength, the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry is not the opponent of Jin Yiwei, and the huge gap in strength directly determines the disparity in the strength of the two cavalry, which cannot be said to be the same.

After being stunned for a moment, Li Li let go of the murderous intent in his heart, although he really wanted to lead the army to completely destroy the tiger and leopard cavalry and Cao Chun. But the current critical situation forced him to remain calm at all times and face things rationally. Otherwise, one wrong step will be lost. Not only was the whole army annihilated, but his life was also at the cost of his life. It was reason that defeated impulse, and he did not immediately lead the army to fight with the tiger and leopard cavalry, but instantly looked around, scanned the situation on the entire battlefield in Nancheng, and looked for the most favorable route to break through to himself.

Seeing and listening to the eight directions, Li Li immediately made a decision and ordered: "Where is Huan Fei?" Open the way for our army and defeat the tiger and leopard riders! ”

After hearing the sound, Huan Fei immediately jumped forward, raised the long-handled wolf-toothed sledgehammer with one hand, and shouted violently: "Flying bear heavy armored cavalry, God blocks and kills gods, demons block and eliminate demons, whoever dares to block our army's way will smash his bones for me, kill!" ”

"Boom——— kill, kill, kill!"

With a loud bang, more than 8,000 heavily armored iron horsemen charged on horseback, following Huan Fei and rushing towards the tiger and leopard horseman. In an instant, the flying bear heavy armored iron horse and the tiger and leopard horse met fiercely, collided violently, and suddenly staged this battle of war horses fighting to the death. At the same time, this is also a battlefield duel between heavy cavalry and light cavalry, which is strong and weak, and who wins and loses, which can be seen in the first round of charging and fighting.

The collision of the weapons of "Qiang Qiang" was a great deal, and Huan Fei and Cao Chun, who took the lead, took the lead in the confrontation. Perhaps Cao Chun knew something about Huan Fei before, and he deliberately avoided Huan Fei's starting hammer in the first confrontation, and even swung his knife and slashed at the moment when Huan Fei's blow missed, but was held by Huan Fei's left hand with a round shield, and then raised the long hammer with one hand and smashed it into Cao Chun's head.

"Bell!" There was a loud bang, but Cao Chun held the knife in both hands, raised it above his head, and forcibly took the long hammer that Huan Fei smashed head-on.

The sound of the war horse retreating suddenly rose, and Cao Chunlian, who greeted Huan Fei's hammer, was shocked back six steps with his horse, which made the mount under his crotch scream and neigh. Immediately, Cao Chun blurted out a mouthful of blood, his face was flushed, and his originally high-spirited eyes became frightened and panicked at the moment, as if he didn't want to believe that he couldn't bear Huan Fei's one-handed hammer, and he was declared defeated as soon as he closed it, and was seriously injured and vomited blood.

Xiliang Huanfei is so strong!

Fortunately, after repelling Cao Chun with one blow, Huan Fei did not entangle with him, but led the flying bear soldiers under his tent to rush straight into the tiger and leopard cavalry formation, rushing left and right, and killing the Quartet. This is the style of a general, he does not hesitate to be brave, never forget his mission, lead the army to fight bravely, fight for the lord Li Li behind him, and do his best to fight out of the encirclement. And this is exactly the purpose of Li Li ordering him to lead the Flying Bear Battalion to defeat the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry.

At this time, for Li Li and Huan Fei and more than 20,000 Xiliang iron cavalry, killing the enemy is not the goal, the top priority is to break out of the encirclement, leave the southern city, and find a place to stay and rest with bows and crossbows.

That's the most important thing.
