Cao Cao crosses Wu Dalang

Chapter 121
Hu Yanzhuo divided half of the troops back to aid, and the other half led them personally, and rushed straight to the Liangshan horse army.

Chao Gai and the others led their horses to block the road, saw the thick smoke rising into the clouds from afar, and immediately smiled and said: "What kind of generals from generation to generation, don't they just care about their heads and ignore their backs..."

Before he finished speaking, he heard the horse's hoof vibrating, from far to near, his face changed, and he said in surprise: "Grandma, what a ruthless person, did you abandon the rear army and ignore it?"

Lin Chong stepped forward, turned his head to listen carefully for a moment, and looked at Chao Gai: "Brother, there are three thousand horse troops. I heard this movement, but it doesn't seem to be the size of a three thousand horse army. In my brother's opinion, the enemy must divide their troops and return to help." , and the remaining part will be attacked."

Chao Gai was shocked when he heard this: "Brother Wu made a plan earlier, if he comes back to help, I will take advantage of the situation to attack, if he is desperate to attack, I will lead him around, wait until I kill his infantry, and then make further calculations... Turning to look at Cao Cao: "Brother Wu, you didn't say how he should deal with it if he divides his troops."

Cao Cao closed his eyes tightly and listened carefully to the movement. He opened it for a moment, and shouted: "The rapid changes on the battlefield, how can we predict it all? It's just a temporary mechanism. Listening to his movement, it should be divided into half of the troops, but only one thousand and five The Hundred Horse Army, Chao Tianwang, I also have thousands of people here, brothers are like wolves and tigers, are they weaker than him?"

Hearing this, Chao Gai became more courageous, and said: "That's it, let's fight to the death with them."

Cao Cao shook his head and said, "Fighting means fighting, not this way! He's still a few miles away from me, and I'll stop still. When he's two miles away, I'll get back on my horse and go, leading him to chase after me." After dozens of miles, the horsepower is exhausted, and then go back to the horse and charge straight, if there is more than enough to break, it will be defeated!"

Chao Gai said happily, "Good plan!"

Cao Cao said: "It's just that the enemy general is not stupid. He knows that the horse has run a distance longer than me, so how can he be willing to chase him hard? But he has to give him a bait, hook him and refuse to let go, and he will be safe. Brothers, who Dare to kick a tiger on the nose?"

Lin Chong shouted: "If you give this credit to me, Lin Chong, who would you give it to?"

Cao Cao said: "Okay! It's up to you to do it, brother, you bring twenty or thirty good riders who can shoot well, so and so, just be careful!"

Lin Chong laughed loudly, full of energy: "Brother Wu, don't worry, Lin Chong's doing this kind of thing is just like finding something out of a pocket!"

Guo Sheng and the others looked at each other, and said in a low voice: "Teacher Lin is usually taciturn, but he never expected that he would be so proud when he went to the battlefield—it was Zhou Tong who harmed others, and was taught by him to cover up the hero so extravagantly." You have to be afraid of your hands and feet."

After a while, they saw dust billowing up in the woods ahead, and at the corner, more than a thousand cavalry suddenly galloped out, everyone was shocked when they saw it.

It turns out that his horse army is all armored horses. The men wear iron armor, and the horses wear vests, covering them from head to tail, with only four hooves running under them.If the two armies were to confront each other, the Liangshan Majun would be the melons and fruits under the kitchen knife, and they would be killed cleanly.

Chao Gai was startled and said: "Damn the scouts, the enemies are all armored and heavy cavalry, why don't you mention it?"

He didn't know that Hu Yanzhuo also secretly rejoiced, it turned out that Hu Yanzhuo spent a lot of his own money in order to train a powerful horse army, and he was determined to show his talents when he conquered Liao and Xixia, and shine on the lintel.This time when he received the order to conquer Liangshan, he complained to the Taiwei Gao Qiu, saying, "The army and horses are all elite, but the equipment is insufficient."

Gao Qiu was also straightforward, and asked him to go "in the capital's Jiazhan warehouse, and choose armor, armor and knives at will, regardless of the number." Hu Yanzhuo got this order, and without hesitation went to "choose three thousand pairs of iron armor and five cooked leather vests." Thousands of pairs, three thousand copper and iron helmets, two thousand long spears, one thousand gun knives, countless bows and arrows, and more than five hundred cannons and iron cannons."

Afterwards, the army was brought to the capital for inspection. Gao Li probably felt that some of the horses were too weak to be armored, so he simply spent more money and allocated him horses.

With this batch of equipment and this batch of horses, Hu Yanzhuo took off on the spot, and got a sharp and decisive heavy cavalry out of thin air. Recently, when he spoke, his voice was two octaves higher.

Because the iron armor and vest are heavy, daily marching consumes no horsepower, and they are always placed on the heavy carts, so how did the scouts know?Today, because he was near Liangshanbo, he wanted to show his prestige, so he armed all three thousand armored horses.

If Liangshan's surprise attack happened one morning, and the luggage was burned, these vests and iron armor would be destroyed, and Hu Yanzhuo would be able to vomit blood and vomit to death alive.This is what he is lucky about.

Leading the team out of the dense forest, seeing Liangshan's thousands of horse troops scattered in a row, Hu Yanzhuo laughed and said: "The grass bandits in the water park, although they have tricks, rely on their familiar geography to ambush one or two, but they don't know the real art of war. ?”

Stretching out the copper whips with both hands, the armored horse that had been trotting behind began to speed up and spread out to both sides, unexpectedly swallowing the Liangshan horse team in one gulp.

Cao Cao said with a smile: "If you ride heavy, you will see the heaven's favor. Brother Lin, follow the plan."

Hearing this, Lin Chong got on his horse, held an eight-point steel snake spear in his hand, and rushed out with twenty or thirty riders, hissing loudly: "Little brother risked his life to block the enemy, Brother Chao Gai, go back to the stronghold." Regardless of life and death, he came out to Hu Yanzhuo However, Liangshan's brigade turned their horses around and got on their horses to flee for their lives.

Hu Yanzhuo was furious, how many leopard guts did you eat?How dare you say stop me?

He was afraid that Chao Gai and the main force of the grass bandits would be run away, so he urged the horse under his crotch. This is a good horse bestowed by the emperor.With a neighing sound, the horse immediately broke away from the group and shot straight towards Lin Chong.

In a short time, the two rushed forward, Lin Chong twisted his wrist, and the snake spear was like a fine python, whining and carrying the evil wind, rushing and flying towards Zhuo's heart.

As soon as Hu Yanzhuo saw his hand, he knew that he had encountered a strong opponent, and shouted: "Good come!" Huh, he swung the copper whip with his left hand, swung the spear away, and swung the whip with his right hand to smash it on the head.

His two water-milled eight-edged copper whips, the one in his left hand weighed twelve catties, and the one in his right hand weighed thirteen catties. Would it be a joke to get hit?Lin Chong hastily stirred the snake spear, turned it upside down, and knocked off the whip.Two you come and go, killing three or four rounds.

Behind Hu Yanzhuo, the horse army has started to gallop, and when they saw behind them, 30 people who followed Lin Chong, all took out their bows and arrows to shoot. The officers and soldiers lowered their heads, with cooked copper hats on their heads, and iron armor on their bodies, just listening to the jingling When it rang, no one was injured.

After passing this round of arrows, those officers and soldiers took out their bows and shot back. These soldiers were trained by Hu Yanzhuo for several years, and their cavalry and archery skills are extraordinary, but seeing the arrows flying across the sky, Liang Shan's dozens of cavalry were cut in half.

Lin Chong was startled inwardly, and shouted: "That's amazing! Hu Yanzhuo, if you're not afraid of ambush, come and drive me away!"

Three spears in a row rushed out, forcing Hu Yanzhuo's hands and feet, and fled with his horse.

Hu Yanzhuo was so angry that he screamed: "Forgive you, a grass bandit, if there is an ambush, you will also be trampled into dust under the horse's hooves." He chased Lin Chong closely and did not let go.

Arrows shot from behind like locusts, and Lin Chong was hit by five or six arrows in the back. Fortunately, the armor was thick, and it only penetrated slightly into the flesh.But the horsemen who followed him were shot off their horses one by one. Without waiting for a struggle, the army was smashed forward, and they all fell under the horse's hooves.

The situation at this moment is that more than a thousand riders from Liangshan are fleeing, and more than a thousand riders from the officers and soldiers are chasing them. Between the two groups of people, Lin Chong fled alone. Not showing weakness, a spear is full of tricks, and keeps fighting back.

There is also a general advantage: seeing the general and Lin Chong driving side by side, the officers and soldiers behind will not dare to shoot arrows.However, Hu Yanzhuo became more and more excited as he fought more and more. He was determined to beat Lin Chong off his horse, and kept pestering him endlessly. Seeing that the general was so wild, the officers and soldiers behind him did not dare to stop privately, and fought hard to chase after him.

After chasing and fleeing like this, they ran for more than ten miles at a stretch. The officers and soldiers' horses were wearing vests and carrying heavy armored knights.

Cao Cao kept turning his head to look at it, and now his face was filled with joy, and he shouted loudly: "Heavenly King, the enemy's horses are exhausted, and this is the time to defeat the enemy!"

There are different teachings: the current situation is changing in an instant, and the armored horse is riding a strong wind.Thousands of horses scrambled to step on the ground, and the roar of a leopard shook the sky.
