Sigh!

At the moment when the two horses rushed head-on, the sound of "Qiang Qiang" suddenly sounded.

The flying sparks were dazzling, revealing the appearance of the two in the battle.

When the war horse staggered by, the two people who were wielding knives like rain had to stop, and then the figures of the two horses galloping gradually became clear.

I saw that the two people who had a fierce confrontation were Chen Zhi, the general of Xiliang, and Gao Lan, one of the four court pillars of Jizhou.

So far, the two have fought for more than 60 rounds. During this period, although the soldiers of the two armies occasionally staggered, the two still found each other after clearing the obstacles, and they were bound to fight each other.

"Chen to the general and slow!"

Just as Chen was returning to the horse to fight again, Zhang Yan rushed over and said urgently: "There is a change in the internal formation of the Yuan thief, please also ask the general to fight quickly, it is not appropriate to entangle with Gao Ran anymore!" ”

"Oh?" Chen Zhi was shocked when he heard this, and raised his eyes to look at Yuan Shaoshuai's subordinates, but saw that the commander's banner was empty, and the originally dense Jizhou war cavalry disappeared and disappeared.

"How can this be, where is Yuan Shao?" In an instant, Chen Zhi's expression changed greatly, and he hurriedly lifted the reins of the horse, and said in surprise: "General Zhang Yan, what's going on?" Where did Yuan Shao go, and where were the five thousand war horsemen who guarded Yuan's handsome banner? ”

"The general is not in a hurry, the incident happened suddenly, please don't be impatient, be sure to calm down."

Seeing that Chen Zhi looked anxious, Zhang Yan hurriedly said: "The last general has just noticed that the Yuan army under Shuai seems to have moved, and Yuan Thief and a group of civil servants and strategists under his command actually left the Chinese army quietly and disappeared. But. At present, we have firmly trapped the more than 20,000 men and horses of Yuan Thief's Chinese army, and the front and left and right flanks are our Black Mountain soldiers and horses, and it is impossible for Yuan Thief and the 5,000 cavalry around him to break out of the encirclement silently. Yes. The Yuan thief must have retreated directly to the camp from the rear, presumably having broken out of the encirclement at this time and fled to the Allied camp. ”

"Ahh How good is that? Chen Zhi was in a hurry when he heard this, his expression changed again and again, and he said with remorse: "The lord ordered me to break Yuan Shao's army at any cost, and no matter what, I must entangle Yuan Shao so that he cannot get out." You can't let him run away. Unexpectedly, when we have already gained the upper hand, we are about to finish. Yuan Shao and the others suddenly fled the battlefield. How do I go to the Lord and what face do I have to see the Lord on my behalf? I??? Alas! ”

Seeing that Chen Zhi was full of sadness and very anxious, Zhang Yan comforted: "The general doesn't have to blame himself so much. Judging from the last general, Yuan Thief must have just led his troops to escape. Not far yet. We can quickly defeat the Yuan army in front of us, and then wave the army to chase and kill. Therefore, it is not too late for us to fight hard, and there is still room for redemption. ”

"Huh? Good, good, good! Chen Zhi's expression was shocked, and he applauded repeatedly, and then raised the reins and waved his gun, eager to try, and said impatiently: "Since this is the case, we must not hesitate." Immediately lead the army to charge into battle, and you must not let Yuan Shao escape! ”

Seeing Chen Zhi so eager. Zhang Yan didn't say much, and when he turned around, he turned around and said: "The last general is only the head of the general, and he is willing to listen to the dispatch." However, the current situation is critical, and the general can no longer entangle with Gao Ran, so as not to delay the fighter plane and let the Yuan thief take the opportunity to escape! ”

Chen Zhi nodded happily and said, "Okay, what General Zhang Yan said is reasonable, so I will follow what you say." You and I acted separately, you led the infantry to attack head-on, and I led the cavalry to storm from the flank, and we must do our best to defeat the enemy army and chase Yuan Shao! ”

"No!" Zhang Yan replied without hesitation, and immediately rode away, and Chen Zhi no longer fought with Gao Ran, deliberately avoided Gao Ran, retreated to the main formation, and led Feiyan light cavalry to the flank, trying to join forces with Wang Dang, and defeat the more than 20,000 Yuan Shaozhong troops who were still fighting in one fell swoop.

I have to say that after the previous life-and-death struggle, Zhang Yan has inadvertently completely put down the shelf of the leader of the Montenegrin Army and put himself in the right position. Therefore, he regarded himself as the last general in front of Chen Zhi, and his posture was very low, and he no longer had the slightest arrogance. It's just that he doesn't know that in fact, Chen Zhi's official status in the Xiliang Army is not high, at least for now, he is only a captain, far less prominent than his status as a general in the middle of the difficulty. And the reason why Zhang Yan is so humble in front of Chen Zhi is that Chen Zhi is strong in martial arts, and the other is that Chen Zhi is a lieutenant general of the Jin Yiwei camp, and he is a close subordinate general around Li Li.

————————————

For half an hour, Li Li and his entourage of more than 3,000 horsemen quietly watched the battle in front of them, and waited for the momentum.

Just when Yuan Shao quietly retreated under the protection of Zhang He, Chen Zhi and Zhang Yan were discussing countermeasures, and Li Li's scheduled half an hour arrived as scheduled. At this time, a glimmer of light had been revealed in the sky, and the bright stars quietly receded, and the heavens and the earth ushered in a brief darkness before dawn.

"The soldiers of the Jin Qi Guard obeyed the order, did not light torches, did not make noise, and marched in concealment. The target is Yuan Shaozhong's army commander, and all the soldiers will kill with me———! ”

With Li Li's order, the three thousand Golden Lion Guard cavalry moved in response to the sound and galloped on their prancing horses. Although there was no shouting and killing sound of the soldiers, the roar of the "da-da" in the galloping of the war horses could not be covered. Fortunately, at this moment, the sound of shouting and killing on the battlefield shook the sky and the noise was extremely loud, which completely covered up the sound of Li Li and his party galloping on horseback, thus achieving the purpose of Li Li's covert march.

At the same time, on the battlefield of Yuan Shaozhong's army, Zhang Yan, who had agreed to act separately with Chen Zhi, returned to his own position as soon as possible, and then joined Sun Qing, the second leader of the Montenegrin Army, to lead a 30,000-foot army to attack the last line of defense of the Yuan army head-on, and fought to the death with more than 15,000 Yuan troops guarding Shuai Qi.

In the fierce battle, Zhang Yan ordered Sun Qing to sit in town and command the army to charge and kill, while he led the remaining personal guard cavalry of more than 100 people to take the lead and charge ahead. This move was like emulating Li Li at the beginning of the war, trying to take the lead in tearing apart the defense line of the Yuan army, digging a gap for the army behind him, so that the army could rush up, so as to defeat the stubborn Yuan army in one fell swoop.

In the gallop of the prancing horse, Zhang Yan waved the war knife in his hand in the air, flying left and right, and he was brave. And the more than 100 personal soldiers who charged with him also showed good results, following Zhang Yan and rushing left and right behind him, firmly guarding the safety of Zhang Yan's back and sides, and ensuring that Zhang Yan had no worries. You can fight with all your might and move forward bravely. It can be seen that these more than 100 pro-soldiers are not mediocre. After all, they have been able to survive in such a fierce battle until now, which in itself proves that they are all elite warriors with extraordinary skills.

In the bloody battle, Zhang Yan took the lead, and Yuan soldiers screamed and died one by one when the knife fell, and no one could stop him wherever he went. Therefore, in just a moment, he got his wish and entered the inner formation of the Yuan army. It is only fifty steps away from Yuan Shaoshuai's flag planted on the rear platform, which can be said to be a stone's throw away and within reach. All it takes is a charge.

At this moment, Zhang Yan was extremely excited, and even surprised. Because he finally rushed into the core area of Yuan Shaozhong's army, Shuai Qi was in front of him. It is equivalent to having completed the task delivered by Li Li. And in order to accomplish this goal. Nearly half of the 50,000 Montenegrin troops under his command suffered casualties, and even he himself almost died in the siege of Chun Yuqiong, Gao Lan, Gao Gan and Yan Kai. But now, every effort is worth it, and victory is just around the corner!

However, Zhang Yan, who was ecstatic in his heart, didn't notice at all that most of the more than 100 personal soldiers who followed him had already died in battle. There were also dozens of personal soldiers who were intercepted outside the inner formation, and now there were only a dozen cavalry still behind him. Other words. His plan to fight a bloody path for the army succeeded, but it was short-lived, so that he himself was deeply surrounded by Yuan's army, and he was already isolated except for the only dozen or so personal soldiers behind him.

It's a pity that Zhang Yan didn't notice these at the moment, and didn't even realize that she was in extreme danger and could lose her life at any time. Because, this is where Yuan Junshuai's banner is located, that is, where Yuan Shao is located; Although Yuan Shao was no trace at this time, the generals of the Yuan army who stayed behind gathered here.

"The thief has come just in time, let him die!"

Sure enough, just as Zhang Yan was excited and surprised, a loud shout suddenly came into his ears, which shook his ears, and his mind was blank. However, he was a battle-hardened man after all, and when he was deaf and dizzy in both ears, he completely relied on his own instinct to swing his knife and slash to the left. Because he was no stranger to the sound of this broken cheer that was still in his ears, he immediately heard that it was Chun Yuqiong's voice, he had heard it many times before, so he was very familiar with this voice.

"Bell!" With a loud bang, Zhang Yan narrowly blocked Chun Yuqiong's sneak attack and was lucky to save his life. But he was a little slow to react after all, and under the blow, he was shocked by Chun Yuqiong's powerful sword and tilted his body to the side, and the war horse under his crotch was forced to retreat a few steps horizontally, so that he almost turned over and fell off the horse.

Just when Zhang Yan, who was crooked on horseback, was about to get up and raise his head to sit down, there was another "rustling" sound in his ears on both sides, and the strong air flow that accompanied the sound violently hit his eardrums.

Suddenly, Zhang Yan was shocked, creepy, and immediately didn't want to think about it, so he took advantage of the crooked side of his body to pounce and dismount, trying to avoid the attack of the two-sided attack by automatically falling off the horse.

"Poof——— bang!"

In the dull sound of the sharp weapon breaking the body, Zhang Yan's reaction speed was finally a little slower, and he could avoid his head, but he couldn't avoid his shoulder, and was stabbed in the left shoulder by a sudden spear, and then he was overturned and fell off the horse and smashed to the ground.

"Ahh After landing on the ground, Zhang Yan's entire upper body armor was forcibly removed, like a hedgehog being stripped of its skin, and he screamed in pain and rolled on the ground. At this moment, the spear and another war knife that had just been stabbed made a comeback, as if they wanted to cut him into four pieces, and there was no body left dead. However, to the great surprise of the sneak attackers, Zhang Yan, who was rolling on the ground in pain, didn't know whether it was intentional or coincidental, just in time for the two weapons to be on the ground, he rolled "Gollum" and rolled into the belly of his mounted war horse, and escaped again.

"Click——— click!"

There was another sudden sound of breaking the air, followed by a crisp sound of bones breaking. But this time the victim was not Zhang Yan hiding under the horse's belly, but Yan Kai, who stabbed Zhang Yan in the left shoulder with a spear. Poor Yan Kai was stabbing Zhang Yan with a spear, but unexpectedly, a shadow suddenly appeared behind him, and he slashed his neck with lightning speed, so that he didn't even have time to shout out the screams, so he inexplicably had a different head and died instantly.

"Roaring ———!" Just as Yan Kai's headless body fell to the ground, a deafening roar of the beast king suddenly rose, causing a group of Yuan army generals to change their complexions when they heard this, and they were shocked.
