Half an hour later.
Go Beiban suddenly realized that he had been deceived.
Twenty miles of cavalry can meet the enemy's cavalry with a single charge. Now, after running for half an hour, they still haven't seen any sign of the enemy.
The war horse under his crotch was already breathing like a pillar.
Qubei reined in his horse, turned around and asked, "Where is the horse spy who just responded with the information?"
Everyone immediately searched for him, but there was no trace of the man.
Qubei was furious: "I will kill these rats who are greedy for life and afraid of death after this battle!"
Boom!
Boom!
At this moment, the ground began to shake violently, and the sound of horse hooves sounded like drums on the ground.
Qubei's face changed.
Turn around and look.
Dust was flying in front of them, filling the sky. Countless cavalry rushed out from the dust, surging forward with unstoppable murderous intent.
What followed the cavalry was a red flag embroidered with gold, with a gorgeous Chinese character Zhang embroidered on it.
Go humble and be surprised.
open?
Could it be Zhang Xiu?
How can it be?
Seeing that the local general was a tiger-bodied general, he went to shout and asked: "Who is coming? Tell me your name."
Zhang Xian shouted: "I am Zhang Xian, the pioneer officer under Xuanhou's account. Go and humble yourself! Take your life!"
"Zhang Xiu?"
Qubei was stunned for a moment, and then laughed: "Zhang Xiu is stupid! He didn't wait for my Shan Yu's army in Guanzhong, but instead led his troops to come to my Yunzhong to seek death. The whole army obeyed the order! Kill me!"
Suddenly, the cavalry from both sides started galloping.
As the earth shook violently, the gravel on the surface bounced repeatedly.
Zhang Xian led the cavalry to charge. On the way, he turned back and shouted: "Brilliant guy!"
As he spoke, he reached under the saddle and hooked it. Two iron guys fell down on the left and right sides, and the stirrups were officially on line.
Zhang first stepped on the stirrups with both feet, and immediately applied force, as if fighting on flat ground, which allowed his legs to be completely released, his feet to be solid, and his waist and legs to exert strength.
Go and be humbled by Zhang Xian who came to kill him head on.
The distance between the two sides was too close, and there was no time to use the Huns' superb shooting skills. The horses accelerated and galloped towards the opponent quickly.
Wei Yan and Ma Chao detoured to outflank him on the left and right wings, which took a long time. Zhang Xian's task was to delay Qu Bei here for half an hour.
Zhang Xian only had 5,000 troops. Although Zhang Xiu's banner was used as a bait, Qubei could tell at a glance that this group of troops was not the main force. There must be a large force behind them. His troops must not be held back. Otherwise, when the main force from the rear comes to attack, they will inevitably be defeated.
So he aimed at Zhang Xian and tried to kill his general first, but the Han army collapsed without a fight.
The two sides quickly drew closer.
Zhang Xian held a long knife and stared at Qubei with his eyes.
Two horses intersect.
Qubei was the first to attack, brandishing his crescent knife and slashing towards Zhang Xian's throat. The knife flashed and the cold air was overwhelming.
But Zhang Xian is not a vegetarian either.
After Wei Yan's teaching and his own exploration and diligent practice, his strength has reached the level of a second-rate general. Among the second-rate generals, he can almost fight to a tie with Li Tong.
Qubei's strength is at most that of a second-rate general, but his strength is a little higher than Zhang Xian.
The sword flashed, and Zhang Xian immediately blocked it with his sword, but the opponent's huge force hit him, and he felt a collapse of the mountain and waves. Fortunately, he had stirrups under his feet to help him stabilize his body.
"snort!"
In one round, he estimated the opponent's strength, snorted coldly, drew the knife quickly, held the knife in both hands, and stabbed Zhang Xian's waist and abdomen with all his strength, fast and hard.
At the critical moment, Zhang Xian suddenly kicked off his feet and twisted his body to spin the knife. While the handle of the knife pushed away Qubei's blade, the tip of the knife slashed towards the opponent's cheek. The situation turned around in an instant and Qubei couldn't react in time.
In his horrified eyes, he saw that the opponent actually stood upright with both feet supported, his buttocks detached from the horse's back, and he put all the strength of his body and waist and abdomen on the sword, and slashed towards him.
"What is this?"
Looking down, he saw the stirrups Zhang Xian was stepping on. Seeing this, Qubei knew that the opponent was using this thing to stand up on the horse, and increased the intensity of his attack.
But he is not a vegetarian either.
Zhang Xian came at him with a knife, and he hurriedly leaned back, half of his body almost hanging on the horse's belly, perfectly avoiding Zhang Xian's blade. Zhang Xian didn't panic when he missed his sword, knowing in his heart that Qu Bei's strength was superior to him, and he didn't want to kill him with one blow. However, it was a pity that he had such a good opportunity and exposed the existence of the stirrup early.
In one round, the two sides resumed the battle.
Zhang Xian and the guards who went to Bei gathered together. On the one hand, he protected his general from being attacked by other soldiers, and on the other hand, he fought desperately with the other party's guards. The guards on both sides were all elite battlefield warriors. The battle was in Together, the battle reaches a climax.
Among the guards, Zhang Xian was inseparable from those who went to Beizhan.
Qubei's strength is higher than that of Zhang Xian, but Zhang Xian has the help of a sharp weapon like stirrups, which makes him unable to defeat the opponent in a short time, while Zhang Xian is silently counting the time.
Half an hour goes quickly.
Just when Zhang Xian was exhausted and ready to kill him in one fell swoop, a dull and loud horn sound came from the distant horizon. The horn sound was extremely penetrating. The low horn sound Like a wolf howling at the moon, it chills people's hearts.
As the horn sounded, the rumble of horse hooves sounded intensively.
When Qubei heard the sound of the trumpet, he was so shocked that his whole body became cold. The hairs all over his body stood up, his scalp was numb, and his face was cold.
As leader of the cavalry, he realized he was surrounded.
"withdraw!"
Qubei decisively issued the order to retreat.
He immediately gave up on killing Zhang Xian, turned around, adjusted his horse, and fled towards Yunzhong City.
Zhang Xiu led the army from behind and galloped over. Now that Qubei had come out, he would not let him return to Yunzhong City alive. The whole army stood in stirrups and pressed against the necks of the horses to maintain the maximum charging speed.
Wei Yan and Ma Chao had long expected that Qubei would flee, so when they appeared, their charge direction was towards his back path. The three parties of people and horses quickly intersected at a certain point like three straight lines.
Finally, the three parties met.
Ma Chao and Wei Yan both rushed to kill Qu Bei's head.
Zhang Xiu personally led his troops to attack from behind. Hu Che'er led his bodyguards to follow Zhang Xiu closely, always doing their duty to protect him.
How can a humble second-rate general be the opponent of Wei Yan and Ma Chao?
Seeing the two enemy tiger generals coming at them with cold faces and knives like ruthless hunting wolves, Qubei was so frightened that he felt that he no longer had the courage to escape.
After all, Ma Chao grew up on a horse and was very fast.
In the eyes that shed fear.
In Wei Yan's eager and helpless eyes.
Ma Chao rushed away, his spear as fast as lightning, passing quickly in front of Qu Bei's eyes, making him feel the world spinning.
Seeing Qubei's head fall to the ground, Wei Yan was so angry that he said with hatred: "Oh, Meng Qi, your speed is too fast, I must change to a better horse next time!"
Ma Chao won the first victory and said happily: "No problem, this battle is over, I will choose a good horse for the general!"
"Okay! It's a deal!"
The two laughed.
