Without much effort, a group of troops came from the north. Seeing Cao Cao blocking the road, they were frightened and stopped within an arrow's throw. They panicked for a moment and formed a formation.
The two generals came out in a show of force, pointing and shouting: "Hey! What kind of soldiers and horses are you waiting for, dare to block the way of the army?"
Cao Cao brought his iron face and said smoothly: "We are heroes from Liangshanbo. We heard that there was a dog official named Gao Lian in Gaotang Prefecture who was doing evil to the people, so we wanted to attack him! Where are your soldiers? horse?"
The two were furious after hearing this, looked at each other, and shouted: "Damn you grass bandits, we are about to kill you, but you dare to leave the water and come to this state to fight wildfires! To tell you the truth, we are Gaotang Under the command of the prefect of Gaozhou, we are the vanguard of the expedition against Liangshan. If you meet our brothers, your lives will be short-lived! If you dismount and accept surrender honestly, you may still have a chance to survive."
Wen Da's family was still in Daming Mansion and asked for Zhang Tie's mask to wear. He took the initiative to invite the battle and said: "Brother Wu, the last general has just arrived and has not made any meritorious deeds. These two people will be taken by the last general to show their merits."
When Suo Chao heard this, he couldn't help but said anxiously: "I heard that you are a great general, how can you compete with such a small skill? Since they are both pioneers, it is my duty to win the battle!"
He was afraid that Wen Da would fight with him, so he immediately slapped his horse and rushed out of the formation without waiting for orders. Originally, a five-flowered horse died after eating Li Kui and cutting off its hoof, but now it was Li Cheng's snow-white war horse that he was riding.
In front of the two armies, Suo Chao was seen wearing a copper lion helmet on his head, wearing an iron-leaf bright light armor, a gold-plated animal face belt around his waist, wearing a crimson floral robe, carrying a bow and hanging arrows, and holding his gold-dipped ax upside down. , majestic, pointed his halberd and shouted: "Hey! You are a vanguard, and I am also a vanguard. Now the vanguard is fighting the vanguard, you two come together!"
When Lao Cao saw him looking forward to Zixiong, he felt happy and praised: "Duan is a good general, but he has a short temper."
When Wen Da saw Cao Cao's love for Suo Chao, he made fun of him and said, "Brother Wu, I don't know, in terms of his own martial arts, this person may not be the best, but he can be said to be unparalleled in the army when he rushes to defeat the enemy, just because he doesn't care about life and death. He is dull and only wants to kill the enemy and make achievements, otherwise why would he be called a vanguard?"
Cao Cao quickly told Hua Rong: "Brother, according to what Brother Wen said, this brother Suochao is brave, but also reckless. You are a safe man, so you should pay more attention to him."
Hua Rong smiled and said: "It's similar to Qin Ming. I don't have to worry about it."
Over there, the two pioneers of Gaotangzhou heard that Suo Chao was going to fight one against two. They were furious at the same time and shouted: "You are a rampant grass bandit, so I will take your head and sacrifice it to the flag." Only two of them came out at the same time and called Yu Zhi. The commander of the army wielded an eyebrow-pointed sword, and another named Wen Wenbao wielded a flower spear, shouted in unison, and killed the general.
"Little Pioneer" Wang Ding was afraid that Suo Chao would fail due to his greed for merit, so he hurriedly shouted: "Brother Suo, if you want to make meritorious deeds, why don't you bring brother Chu with you?" He also shot out, blocking Wen Wenbao first, and Suo Chao had to fight with Yu Zhi Confrontation.
The two armies watched the battle attentively, but they saw the sixteen horse hooves, which were like kicking dust when turning the light. The four generals on them were fighting each other with great force. The roar and the sound of weapons clashing were endless. They fought for more than ten rounds. , Suo Chao became anxious: "These two skills are not very good. If you can't kill him for a while, doesn't it mean that the new brothers are looking down on Suo?"
Then he gritted his molar teeth, used all his brute force, and used three axes in a row to force open Yu Zhi's sword. The fourth ax was as fast as lightning, slashing in from the side of the neck, shoulders and chest, and stabbing it open. .
This ax was equivalent to directly dismembering Yu Zhi's body. The blood splashed out like a fountain, and the two corpses fell into the dust. Wen Wenbao was immediately frightened. He made a feint, turned his horse and walked away. Wang Ding was behind him. After chasing for a few steps, he saw that the opponent's horse was fast and he threw the spear in his hand. How could Wen Wenbao be on guard? A shot pierced his heart and he fell off his horse.
Wang Dingzong immediately stepped forward and drew his gun, first snatched Wen Wenbao's kicking yellow gelding, laughing loudly, and then looked at Suo Chao, who was covered in blood, but without stopping, he drove straight into the enemy's formation with one man and one axe. It was like a cannonball that was out of the chamber, rushing forward with no return. A big ax whizzed wildly, and people and horses were shattered wherever it passed.
Wang Ding quickly changed the good horse and shouted: "Brother Suo, wait for me!" He chased after him, dancing with his horse and dancing his spear. The soldiers were frightened by Suo Chao's ghostly killing method, and Wang Ding followed. Rushing, guns and flowers were rolling, and I don’t know how many people were provoked.
Everyone in Cao Cao's formation was shocked by these two brave generals, especially one Zhou Tong. His eyes widened and his mouth opened wide, and he suddenly saw the secret: I said Wang Ding is far better than me, so what? Become a deputy pioneer? It turns out that’s how it’s done! The man named Suo is an evil ghost who is mad at the sight of blood. He follows him to fight, which is exactly what he wants to do to make a fortune!
A pair of eyes couldn't help but look at the crowd of people in his family: Such a good thing must be learned, and Zhou should also find someone to follow him, um, am I following Yang? Or Shi Wengong?
Hua Rong was also shocked by Suo Chao's bravery, and recalled Cao Cao's words asking him to guard Suo Chao, so he moved his hand: "Brother Feiqi, follow me to kill the enemy!" At that moment, he and Yang Zhi led Qian Wufei to kill. When he came out, the bows and arrows shot out like a hail, and the Gaotang soldiers were immediately routed.
Xu Guanzhong was overjoyed and said to Cao Cao hastily: "Brother! I didn't expect this brother Suo Chao to be so brave. I want to come here, the road from Gaotangzhou to Liangshan is flat, and there is no need for pioneers to open roads across mountains and build bridges across rivers, so the Chinese army The brigade must be not far away. Now that the matter is over, wouldn't it be just right to kill them with a rolling bead curtain and wipe out the whole group of people in Gaotangzhou with one shot? "
Cao Cao laughed loudly after hearing this: "You act when you see an opportunity, dare to break up in battle, and you are loyal and have a filial piety! Brothers, don't mess up the formation, follow me to kill the enemy."
Immediately, he led Xu Guanzhong, Shi Wengong, Wen Da, and Zhou Tong to kill him, and ordered Yu Baosi, Li Kui, Xiang Chong, and Li Gun, along with the card players and infantry, to follow quickly.
Xu Guanzhong caught up and told Cao Cao what he meant. Hua Rong immediately knew the opportunity and blew a whistle. His flying cavalry spread its wings and drove the defeated soldiers wildly like herding sheep. Yang Zhi rode forward alone and faced the red-eyed Suo Chao. Said: "Pioneer, please suppress your impatience. My brother will order you not to kill all these people and drive them to charge the Chinese army."
Suo Chao laughed and said, "This new brother is so courageous. We are just in time to make great achievements!" After that, he didn't kill anyone, he just yelled and drove the defeated soldiers to run away.
But it was said that Gao Lian, the magistrate of Gaotang Prefecture, received an official document and wanted to transfer him to conquer Liangshan. He was happy at first and wanted to put his skills on the market, but he saw that he had also transferred Wei Dingguo and Shan Tinggui, the training envoys of two regiments in Lingzhou, as his deputy generals. He couldn't help but get angry: "I have dozens of generals under my command, which one can't be used? Do you want two people from Lingzhou to share the work?"
Not daring to disobey, he asked two men to stay in the rear army to guard the way back. He sent two generals, Yu and Wen, with 800 people as the vanguard to explore the road, and personally led 4,000 troops as the central army, focusing on catching up with Li Cheng and Li Cheng. Before Guan Sheng's two routes, break Liangshan first so that he can gain this great achievement alone.
Unexpectedly, on that day, after marching only seven or eight miles, he saw smoke and dust billowing in front of him, as if thousands of troops were coming to kill him. Gao Lian was startled and shouted, "What's going on?"
Gao Lian was surrounded by twenty or thirty officers. One of the commanders, named Xue Yuanhui, was very obedient. He galloped out with a horse to have a look, and then reported back and forth: "Prefect, it's not a big deal." Good! The vanguard team has been defeated, and now the defeated troops are rolling back their bead curtains and running towards me. If we don’t respond early and are overrun by the defeated troops, it will be a huge defeat."
Gao Lian's heretical skills were quite astonishing, but he was not familiar with the art of war. He immediately panicked and said, "Ah, how can we not be defeated?"
Xue Yuanhui suggested a plan: "Move the archers to the front of the formation and line them up in three rows. If anyone dares to rush into the formation, we will shoot them all, whether we are the enemy or ourselves, and we will be safe."
Gao Lian said: "In that case, why are you still standing there? Why don't you move your archer forward?"
There was a panic, and all the thousand archers in the army were mobilized in front of the formation and formed an arrow formation along the road. Not long after the formation was formed, hundreds of defeated troops rushed over and shouted: "Make way, give way, our army is defeated." "
There are different teachings: the vanguard is unparalleled in the formation, and Lieutenant General Wang follows him to take advantage of the situation. The little bully learns and sells now, he is so happy and he has a magic formula.
Han Suya, a book friend of this book, must have been impressed by the brothers who often read this chapter - he has written a book "Murong Fu Zong Heng Douluo" with 880,000 words, which is quite fat. My younger brother took the time to read a few chapters and was quite fascinated. Those who like it may wish to watch it.
