Great Han Empire

Chapter 127

Zhang Niujiao and Chu Feiyan led more than 100 attendants on horseback and galloped wildly, and the intensive hooves echoed on the open plain.

Suddenly, they saw a dozen fast horses running towards them.The knight on the horse seemed to be being chased and killed, the speed had reached the limit of the horse, and the sound of horseshoes, like a gust of wind and rain, came from far to near, in an instant.

Zhang Niujiao and Chu Feiyan slowed down their horses.

No trace of the enemy has been found in the south of the Yishui River. The people in front must be their own people. It is estimated that something urgent has happened.The two looked at each other and found that they were a little nervous.At this time, there are things and bad things.

Chu Feiyan gradually saw the person who was rushing towards him clearly, and his expression became extremely ugly.

"Who is that?" Zhang Niujiao immediately noticed Chu Feiyan's abnormality and asked loudly.

"Something happened in Beixincheng." Because of nervousness, Chu Feiyan held the reins tightly with both hands, and said in a trembling voice, "Father, something happened in Beixincheng. That's Zhang Feng who stayed behind in Beixincheng."

Zhang Niujiao's eyes widened, and he looked at the group of people running towards him in surprise.

The other party also found Chu Feiyan, and shouted loudly: "Chu Shuai, Chu Shuai..."

Zhang Feng was covered in blood, as if he had been seriously injured, and he came all the way.At this moment, when he saw the person he was looking for, he couldn't hold on anymore and fell off the horse.

Chu Feiyan flew off the galloping horse immediately, he ran a few steps according to the inertia of the horse, picked up Zhang Feng from the ground, and shouted loudly.

Dozens of war horses around were pulled to a stop by their masters almost at the same time, and the horses all neighed and the scene was chaotic.

Zhang Feng was stabbed several times on his body, and his back was shot with a long arrow.He tried his best to say something, but in the end he lost too much blood and died.Chu Feiyan hugged him tightly, her heart ached like twists, and tears rolled down quietly.

"What's going on? What's the matter?" Zhang Niujiao sat on his horse and shouted at the soldiers running over with his whip.

Seeing that it was a handsome man, several people were startled, and quickly fell to their knees.

A bolder soldier shouted: "Commander, Manzi, Manzi's cavalry has entered Beixincheng."

Another one also shouted: "It's the leopard cavalry, I saw the black panther battle flag."

"Beixin City was captured by them. The brothers suffered heavy casualties, and only a few of us escaped."

Zhang Niujiao felt as if he had been severely beaten by someone, and a huge pain hit his whole body in an instant.Zhang Niujiao groaned in pain.Then the energy and blood surged, and a severe dizziness hit him. He couldn't support his body, and almost fell off the horse.Zhang Niujiao grabbed the rein and tried his best to stabilize his figure, his complexion became extremely pale.

Chu Feiyan put down Zhang Feng's body and stood up slowly, the expression on his face was much calmer.

Zhang Feng's subordinates hurriedly saluted him.Chu Feiyan shook her hand, signaling to excuse her.

"When did the Leopard Army attack Beixincheng? How did they get in?" Chu Feiyan asked calmly.

"Back to Chu Shuai, it was noon, an hour ago. The Leopard Army men were wearing our clothes, pretending to be our troops, and all of them were bloodstained, saying that the large army was ambushed at Fanxing Pavilion and asked to enter the city. The soldiers defending the city Believing it was true, he hurriedly opened the city gate and let them in. Then they seized the east gate, and all the cavalry of the Leopard Army rushed in. Many of the enemies were bearded beards, and they killed without blinking an eye." An older attendant Hurry back.

"How many are they?"

"It's everywhere, there are about 1 people. They ran back and forth across the four city gates, killing everyone they met, and they didn't show mercy."

Chu Feiyan shook her head vigorously, as if trying to figure out a clue from these chaotic things.

He suddenly yelled in horror: "Fan Xingting, who has news about Fan Xingting?"

A dozen soldiers who followed Zhang Feng out of Beixin City looked at Chu Feiyan's frightened eyes and shook their heads blankly.

Chu Feiyan turned around abruptly, and looked at Zhang Niujiao, who was stupefied, in shock.

What a powerful move, a fatal blow.

Looking at it now, nine out of ten troops who set off in the morning and rushed to Fanxingting were all ambushed and wiped out by the Leopard Army, and then the Leopard Army rushed into Beixin City again without stopping.Unsuspecting, the Yellow Turban Army not only lost Beixincheng, but also lost their army.What's more deadly is that the [-] Yellow Turban Army north of the Yishui River suddenly became trapped. Not only could they not cross the river, they would be trapped to death by the Yishui River.Even if they turned around and charged into Fan Yang, they would still be a dead turtle.

A few days ago, Chu Feiyan secretly lurked in Jiuliting and almost wiped out the Leopard Army.Unexpectedly, Li Hong immediately adopted their secret tactic of lurking, and led his troops to cross two big rivers in succession quietly, traveled six hundred miles, and ambushed at Fan Xingting.He succeeded, not only eliminated Chu Feiyan's army, but also completely blocked the retreat of the last 3 people of the Yellow Turban Army who invaded Youzhou.

Chu Feiyan lowered her head in pain.

He had an urge, an urge to curse.He really didn't want to face Zhang Niujiao again.

At the beginning, I tried my best to dissuade Zhang Niujiao from marching north to Youzhou, but he refused to listen.Later, when he withdrew his troops from Zhuocheng, he advised him to withdraw as soon as possible and not to deal with the leopards, but he still didn't listen.When he arrived at Dingxing Ferry, he persuaded Zhang Niujiao to give up food, grass and supplies, and withdraw 15 troops from Zhuojun as quickly as possible, but he still refused to listen.In the entire Northern Expedition Army, 1 troops led by Zhang Niujiao, 2 people who were escorted by Sun's relatives, and 18 people brought by himself to support him, making a total of [-] troops, were unexpectedly defeated by this stubborn Yellow Turban Army commander in front of him. All buried.

He finally couldn't bear the anger in his heart, and suddenly knelt down on the ground, raised his arms high, and screamed hysterically.

18 people, 18 troops, were beaten by a cavalry force of 1 people in the east and west, and the fight was over; this is like a huge bison being beaten by a vicious wild leopard One bite, one bite right, and it was swallowed alive.

No matter how good the troops are, no matter how many troops there are, for someone who can't use soldiers, they are all spoils of war.Leopard Li Hong wiped out the entire Northern Expeditionary Army of the Yellow Turban Army with only [-] cavalry in just over a month. This miracle was not created by him alone, and he needed someone who gave him the opportunity to create.This person is Zhang Niujiao.

Chu Feiyan replaced her cursing with an angry roar.

At this time, Zhang Niujiao, who was sitting on the horse, wished he could kill Chu Feiyan who was kneeling on the ground and screaming wildly with his own eyesight.If he had rushed to Jiuliting in the middle of the night according to his plan and attacked the leopard's cavalry army, how could the entire army be wiped out now.

Now they are all over.All the soldiers of the Yellow Turban Army who entered the territory of Zhuojun in Youzhou were eaten away by the leopard Li Hong's cavalry.

One of Zhang Feng's subordinates stood beside Chu Feiyan.He saw that it was getting late, if the cavalry of the Leopard Army in the city went all the way to the Yishui River, none of them would be able to escape.

He hurriedly leaned over to his ear and said, "Chu Shuai, from here we cross Xiong'er Mountain to the northwest, and we can go directly to Beiping City in Zhongshan Kingdom. Chu Shuai, look..."

Chu Feiyan suddenly woke up from the shock.

He looked up at Zhang Niujiao.Zhang Niujiao's expression was dull, a little lost.At this time, there is no chance of turning over the book, and it is a blessing to be able to escape from Zhuojun.

"Who wants to cross the Yishui River, inform Sun Shuai and Zuo Sima to retreat into Fanyang immediately and defend the city to the death." Chu Feiyan asked a group of attendants with his eyes.

As soon as his words fell, more than a dozen people rushed out immediately.Chu Feiyan's eyes were a little moist.Going here is basically a dead end.

"Good guy. Go, all of you, you must protect Zhang Shuai, you know?"

A dozen or so agreed abruptly.Immediately, they saluted Zhang Niujiao and Chu Feiyan each, got on their horses and drove away.

"Go... get on your horses, go... rush to Xiong'er Mountain immediately." Chu Feiyan shouted loudly.

In the woods, Yan Rou and several military officers were sitting around the campfire, chatting and laughing.

Yan Wuwei took a sip of boiling water and said sadly: "It would be great if I could have a sip of wine in such a cold day."

Fist immediately agreed, and shouted loudly: "My lord, we are about to enter Fanyang City. Once we enter the city, can we make an exception and give us some wine?"

Yan Rou licked her lips, and said in a low voice: "Keep your voice down. This kind of thing should be done secretly, and you can't publicize it."

Seeing his mysterious appearance, several people laughed out loud.

"Don't you lie to us?" Yan Wuwei said, "Also, if old man Tian finds out, you have to bear the responsibility alone."

"Yes. Let old man Tian know that if you don't die, you have to peel off your skin. That groom has a lot of tricks on you. You can only say that you drank it alone, but you can't take us with you." Huzi hurriedly said to Yan Rou seriously.

Yan Rou was out of breath, picked up a piece of burning wood and threw it at it.

"Stop drinking. Why am I hanging out with you gang of horse bandits?"

The fist jumped up immediately: "Fire burns your butt, why do you talk like fart, you..."

Before he finished speaking, Yan Rouhu roared, turned over and jumped up, rushed up with a knife, and yelled wildly: "Who dares to shout again..."

The fist screamed strangely, and fled wildly with its head in its arms.The rest of the people immediately fell down laughing.

"Yanshan little bird..." Yan Rou called Yan Wuwei provocatively.

Yan Wuwei laughed so hard that tears flowed down his face, no matter what his name was.

At this time, everyone saw Fist running back in a hurry, shouting while running:
"It's not good, it's bad, it's bad..."

Li Hong took Yan Liang's personal guards, the black panther Yi Cong who shot the tiger, and ran along the road leading to Yishui River.

Li Hong led his troops and marched southeast until the boundary of Hejian State in Jizhou, then turned north and south and marched to the vicinity of Yicheng in Hejian State. At this point, Li Hong turned northwest again, and secretly lurked at Fanxing Pavilion. thousands of miles.

They successfully attacked Chu Feiyan's [-] troops at Fanxingting, and then marched forty li in a hurry, taking Beixincheng by surprise.

However, none of the people Li Hong wanted to catch was caught.He failed to catch Chu Feiyan in Fanxingting, and after interrogating the prisoners, he found out that he was still in Beixincheng.As a result, Chu Feiyan was still not caught in Beixincheng.After careful interrogation, it was found out that he took someone to pick up Zhang Niujiao by the Yishui River.

Li Hong was overjoyed and immediately led people to search along the road.Capture these two men, and the Yellow Turban Army will be finished immediately.

"My lord, there are a lot of horseshoe marks here. It seems that many people were active here not long ago?"

Shehu suddenly pointed to a section of ground behind him and said.

Li Hong also noticed it, but he was not sure. He was far less familiar with things like horseshoes than native Hu people.

"Stop..." Li Hong yelled wildly, and galloped back.They searched the neighborhood carefully and immediately found Zhang Feng's remains, which had been simply buried.Li Hong was very experienced in searching for traces and determining the direction of the enemy's escape. He immediately determined that the enemy was heading northwest.

"My lord, to the northwest is Xiong'er Mountain. After crossing Xiong'er Mountain, you will find Beiping City in Zhongshan Kingdom. It is estimated that the enemies who escaped from the city found Zhang Niujiao and Chu Feiyan. They got the news that Beixin City was taken by us, so they had to go to Xiong'er Mountain Fleeing." Yan Liang said.

"Are you familiar with the road?" Li Hong asked.

"Familiar." Yan Liang nodded.

"Then lead the way." Li Hong immediately said: "Get on your horses. If you catch them, you can save a lot of battles, save a lot of brothers from dying, and put down the rebellion faster. Everyone must chase after them, understand?"

The cavalry soldiers agreed abruptly.

At dusk, when approaching Xiong'er Mountain, I finally found a group of people galloping on horseback.

Li Hong became excited, raised his knife and roared:

"Brothers, haste, kill..."

"kill……"
