Chapter 123: Pursuing Liu Bei
Xu County, North Gate.
By the time Cao Ang arrived at the north gate, there was only a ruin left.
Under Cao Anmin's orders, the crossbowmen and brocade guards cleaned the surrounding battlefield to find those who were not yet dead, and at the same time passed the news of the investigation to Cao Ang in the middle.
After combining these fragments of information and piecing them together, Cao Ang finally knew the ins and outs of the matter.
Under the attraction of this Zhang Fei Liu Bei, Xiahou Chong was distracted for a moment, and in an instant, the ambush soldiers under his command were all killed by Zhang Xun's army like a tide, even he himself was no exception.
"Where are Zhang Fei and Liu Bei!"
After an angry shout, Cao Ang's lips began to tremble in anger.
Hearing such an inquiry, Cao Anmin on the side did not dare to underestimate it, and hurriedly answered.
"Returning to Gongzi, Zhang Fei and Liu Bei seem to have known about the killing situation, and after spitting out the siege with Zhang Xun's army, he doesn't know where to go!"
For such an answer, Cao Ang was really angry and angry.
He naturally knew that it must have been Xiahou Chong who exposed the killing star of Liu Bei and Zhang Fei when he ambushed Zhang Xun, which made the two of them vigilant and left this Xu County.
"Humph! Zhang Fei and Liu Bei were both injured, and Ben Gongzi didn't believe how far they could run! ”
After a cold snort, Cao Ang's eyes were even more fierce, and he directly asked Cao Anmin to prepare two long-lasting fast horses for him, and then rushed out of the north gate with Wang Yi.
"Go back and tell my father, I will go after Zhang Xunyu and hide Lu Lingqi again, and before my son comes back, I can't let anyone contact her!"
After an explanation, the two fast horses immediately left, and Cao Anmin didn't dare to be careless when he saw this, so he hurriedly took the brocade guard and the crossbowman with the back shield to meet with Lu Lingqi.
Outside the city, Cao Ang and Wang Yi rushed on horseback.
Although the horses under their crotch were fast, Cao Ang was still not satisfied, and directly took out a porcelain bottle from his arms and handed it to Wang Yi.
"Give a horse one of these pills to make it explode again!"
Seeing this, Wang Yi on the side didn't say much at this time, and after taking the porcelain bottle, he immediately took out a blood-red pill and gave it to the horse under his crotch.
In an instant, the speed of the two of them soared again, not much slower than the Chitu Divine Pony.
Zhang Fei and Liu Bei were both injured a lot, so even if they left, they naturally couldn't run far, and if they could intercept them, it would naturally be better.
Although the chances of such a situation are slim, he is still willing to give it a try.
The north gate of Xu County was speeding all the way, and soon a small fork in the road appeared, and I didn't know where it led.
Judging from the dense footprints on this avenue, it is not difficult to find that Zhang Xun's army is speeding away from here, so Liu Bei, who claims to be a relative of the Han family, is naturally impossible to walk with the army under Yuan Shu.
As soon as he thought of this, his speed was even faster, and he rushed straight to the trail.
I don't know how long I walked, but the path became faster and faster, and the roads on both sides became more and more dangerous, and on the other side of the trail was a cliff with a hundred zhang of water rolling on the Taotao River.
And the further he went, the more muddy the road became, but it was precisely because of this that looking at the horseshoe prints in the mud, Cao Ang became more and more sure of his thoughts.
"Liu Bei must be following this road, let's continue to search, we will definitely find them!"
After a shout, Cao Ang quickly dismounted his horse and went faster.
Only Wang Yi on the side looked at the horseshoe prints that suddenly appeared around and frowned slightly, but she still didn't say anything and silently followed behind Cao Ang.
After the two of them rode faster and faster, and finally disappeared completely, in the middle of a jungle on the path where the road began to become muddy, an unkempt man escaped in embarrassment, it was Liu Bei Liu Xuande!
At this time, after watching Cao Ang gallop towards the trail ahead, his face also showed palpitations.
I saw that he did not start to return the same way, but began to climb along the cliff on this side.
He and Zhang Fei escaped together, and after seeing Xiahou Chong's killing intent towards him, he knew that the seemingly gentlemanly Cao Ang was not as simple as it seemed on the surface, and a deep fear rose in his heart.
Just when the two fled, Liu Bei's mount under his crotch was also exhausted and could no longer run fast, and if the two of them rode together, the speed would only be slower, and Liu Bei decided to part ways with Zhang Fei.
Although Zhang Fei said that he could not rest assured that Liu Bei was alone, he also listened to Liu Bei's words, and did not fight with Liu Bei at this life-and-death juncture, decisively beat the horse and galloped, and hurriedly went forward after leaving the horseshoe prints with Liu Bei's mount.
On the other side, after Cao Ang and Wang Yi hurriedly beat their horses and galloped, the mud of the trail became deeper and deeper, and the horseshoe prints became clearer and clearer.
"Childe, this horseshoe print is light and heavy, it seems to be a little surprised."
Hearing such suspicions, Cao Ang didn't care.
"Don't worry, Zhang Fei is eight feet tall and has a strong physique, so the horseshoe prints are naturally heavy!"
After finishing speaking, this Liu Bei didn't continue to say anything else, and after seeing it becoming clearer and clearer, it seemed that the horseshoe prints left not long ago, he hurried over.
The emperor lived up to his wishes, and he didn't know how long it took, at the end of this mountain trail, Cao Ang saw a cliff.
On the edge of the cliff, there were two tall horses, but they were nowhere to be seen.
After seeing such a scene, Cao Ang immediately showed a look of vigilance, and in an instant, his bright eyes and night vision were displayed by him.
Although he said that his night vision could only allow him to see people clearly at night, at this time, on this mountain path with rich vegetation, everything that was covered in shadow by the dense forest on one side was in his eyes.
In just a blink of an eye, Cao Ang immediately took a bow from his horse, and was about to shoot an arrow when there was a sound of knowledge in the mountains and jungles.
And after hearing such a voice, this Wang Yi's eyes immediately lit up, and he rode directly to the place where the sound came.
However, Cao Ang's eyes on the side were like lightning, and the bow and arrow in his hand began to move constantly with the sound of Xixi.
After this Wang Yi approached, she seemed to have noticed something, and the long whip in her hand was waved by her, wrapped around a thick log, and was thrown directly into the dense forest by her.
At the same time as a muffled snort came, the arrow in Cao Ang's hand immediately let go.
The sound of the wind was blowing, and then a wail was heard, and a big man with a black face rolled down from the dense forest in the mountains.
It is Zhang Fei and Zhang Yide!
