Chapter 304 Westbound Return to Beijing
Chapter 304: Traveling west to return to Beijing
Feng Sha immediately looked north, and a look of anxiety appeared on his cold face. On his shoulder, a harrier eagle stood with sharp eyes and coldly looking ahead.
Behind him, five hundred light cavalry were marching in the mountains and fields. Among the team were two large chariots led by eight horses, guarded by heavy troops and slowly heading west.
These five hundred elite cavalry are actually mainly to protect the four wives in these two big carts. If only Feng Sha, just take Dian Wei, Xu Huang and Zhang Liao on the road with the divine horse. Even though the world is big, who can stop them?
Feng Sha led his troops all the way, traveling through the mountains and fields, avoiding the eyes and ears of Yuan Shao's troops, traveling through southern Jizhou, and gradually approaching the Taihang Mountains.
Although it was calm all the way, Feng Sha always felt something was wrong in his heart, as if he was rushing into the trap.
A trace of bad premonition surged into my heart, Feng Sha shrugged and shouted in a low voice: "Go!"
The hawk rose up in response to the sound, flapping its wings and flying high, hovering in the air, searching for traces of the enemy everywhere.
Suddenly, it made a sharp chirping, flying in the air, flying in the other direction from time to time, and then making a sharp chirping.
Feng Sha's face was cold and there was no change at all. Although he was shocked, it was not reflected on his face at all.
He took a deep breath and turned around and shouted, "Wenyuan, Gongming, there is an enemy approaching here, let's turn and move!"
Zhang Liao and Xu Huang were surprised when they heard the sound, and hurriedly rushed over, bowing and saying, "King, where did the enemy come from?"
Feng Sha said in a deep voice: "Now, several enemies have been discovered, approaching us from the east, south and north directions. In the distance, there are still several enemies rushing towards us. One of them is from the southwest, probably the defenders stationed in Chaoge under Yuan Shao. We have to go quickly and we cannot let them surround us!"
The two generals were frightened when they heard the sound, so they hurriedly bowed their heads and turned around, and called their cavalry to follow the instructions of King Wuwei, and turned around and tried hard to break free from the enemy's encirclement before the enemy was surrounded.
The five hundred cavalrymen were also nervous and quickly marched northwest. They just arrived at the Taihang Mountains and entered the forests, and were not afraid of the enemy's search. They could follow the Taihang Mountains and detour towards Luoyang.
Dian Wei followed the lord without fear. Instead, he thought that if the enemy rushed closer, he would raise his halberds and kill him with great pleasure.
Feng Sha patted the horse to the side of a big cart behind the team and shouted, "Take out my armor and put it on for me!"
Several orderly soldiers hurriedly dragged out heavy and solid one-piece armor from the chariot and a fine-made chain mail. Fengsha jumped off the war horse, and with the help of the soldiers, he put the chain mail inside, put heavy black thick armor on the outside, and then put on the battle mail. The whole person was covered in the thick armor.
Several soldiers next to them were also trying to put an extra-large chain mail on Wild Star, and the outside was covered with a thick steel vest. Wild Star was very tall and strong, and wearing a vest, she didn't feel heavy at all, but she felt a little uncomfortable, so she raised her head and sniffed.
Feng Sha stepped onto the war horse and ordered his soldiers to find the heavy armor of Zhang Liao, Xu Huang and others, and asked them to come and change it. They rode forward by themselves, like a solid moving fortress.
In front, the sound of horse hooves rumbling, and the strong cavalry guarded the two large carriages and headed straight to the northwest.
In a carriage behind, the young and beautiful Mrs. Mi and Mrs. Gan were sitting on the blanket in the car, holding hands and talking about gossip. Suddenly, they heard something wrong outside, and heard her husband's voice coming from afar. They knew that they were being pursued by enemy soldiers, and their faces changed color and did not dare to move.
Unscrupulous and intelligent brain sat on the windowsill of the car window, thinking about the enemy soldiers chasing outside, his face slightly darkened. It was not until he saw his two sister-in-law's pitiful appearance that his delicate bodies trembled, and then he smiled and felt better.
In the carriage in front, Xiaoman came out of the carriage. He was wearing military uniform and wearing pink light armor. However, it was her light tight armor specially made in Qingzhou. He held a strong bow in his hand and looked a little nervous and excited. He came out of the carriage. Fan Susu tried hard to hold her, but she couldn't help but watch her go.
Xiaoman jumped out of the carriage and asked his subordinates to pull his horse over, jumped onto the horse, slapped the horse to Fengsha, and said in a sweet voice: "Master, what happened?"
Feng Sha wore a mask on his face, covering his face, and said calmly: "It's nothing, but Yuan Shao's troops are gathering with us, probably because they discovered our whereabouts."
Xiaoman took a deep breath and shouted, "Battle! King, let's kill him! "
Feng Sha shook his head and said, "The enemy's army is powerful, and several armies and horses are coming together, at least above ten thousand people. And since they have all the troops and horses, they must have been prepared. We cannot fight hard, but we should go first."
Xiaoman thought about it, looked excited and shouted, "Master, if you really want to fight, what if I want to take the lead?"
Feng Sha said in a deep voice: "Don't mess around! This is in the army, and the military is strict and you can ask for battle, but as the chief general, I don't agree to what I want, you must go back and stay forever, just protect your sisters!"
Xiaoman lowered his head, responded weakly, and rushed to the carriage. Hearing Fan Susu's concern inquiry in the car, he slapped at Fan Susu's car window and complained: "Sister, the king said he wanted me to guard you and not allow me to go to war!"
Feng Sha had no time to take care of her, so he led his army to gallop northwest.
At this time, the Yuan army was coming here. When one of the troops arrived at their previous position, they found that the enemy had left. Following the horse's hooves, they knew that they were heading northwest. Several generals couldn't help but look at each other, knowing that the enemy had discovered the actions of their troops, rushed out of the encirclement in advance, and left.
The leader was Yuan Shao's eldest son Yuan Tan, and the governor of Jizhou, Zhao Fu, who led tens of thousands of powerful crossbow soldiers to surround him from all sides. Seeing this, he quickly discussed and immediately sent orders to the surrounding troops in the distance, asking them to adjust their direction quickly and chase the enemy again. He must not let Liu Sha escape.
This time they came, they were assigned by Tian Feng, and their goal was to catch Liu Sha and make a name for themselves.
Tian Feng was also a resourceful person. He sent a large number of spies to various places in Qingzhou. Based on clues everywhere, he realized that Liu Sha might have to return to Luoyang through Jizhou and join the Prime Minister Huang Shang, who was in charge of Luoyang, to fight eastward. In order to prevent him from falling into this unfavorable situation, he had to send people to patrol everywhere. Finally, he found the traces of Liu Sha passing by, and hurriedly sent people to chase him and sent documents to the Yuan army guards in front, asking them to ambush in front, hoping to successfully defeat the enemy.
※Shoulder, wall, wall, wall, wall, wall, wall, wall, wall, wall, wall, wall, wall, wall, wall, wall, wall, wall, wall, wall, wall, wall, wall, wall, wall, wall, wall, wall, wall, wall, wall, wall, wall, wall, wall, wall, wall, wall, wall, wall, wall, wall, wall, wall, wall, wall, wall, wall, wall, wall, wall, wall, wall, wall, wall, wall, wall, wall, wall, wall,
Five hundred Qingzhou elite cavalrymen galloped wildly, surrounded by two large carts pulled by sixteen horses, passing straight to the northwest.
Behind, several people chased after him, lined up in a wide fan shape, trying to chase the enemy troops that were running away, and raised the smoke and dust in the sky.
Zhang Liaochi was in front of the army, raised his telescope, looked forward from afar, and suddenly shouted loudly: "King, there is a large forest in front of him. Are we hiding in the forest and preparing to ambush the enemy?"
Feng Sha looked up at his head, and roared in a long voice, asking the harrier hawk.
The well-trained harrier eagle hovered in the air, making a shrill sound, using its long-standing tacit understanding with its owner to point out the dangers ahead.
Feng Sha frowned slightly and shouted to Zhang Liao: "Go and give orders, all soldiers should prepare crossbow arrows, stop in front of the woods, and be ready to fight at any time!"
Zhang Liao took the order and left after hearing the sound. Feng Sha slapped his horse and rushed past the cavalry in front of him, rushed to the front of the woods, raised the sky-shaking bow, took a rocket, and ignited it. With a whoosh, he shot towards the dense forest in front of him.
The large forest grew lushly and densely arranged, and the rocket fell into the forest, and a small flame was soon ignited.
Fengsha did not stop, and his hands shot out pearl arrows like the wind. Rockets shot into the dense forest in front of them one by one, passing through the sky like a shining meteor, falling into the forest, causing a small flame everywhere, and the fire quickly grew larger.
After Fengsha fired all the rockets that had just come from his subordinates, the fire had already ignited. Many places were already burning with flames, and the woods were burning, making crackling sounds.
In the originally quiet dense forest, screams of pain were everywhere. A large number of soldiers fled out of the forest with flames all over their bodies, fell to the ground, and desperately slapped the fire on their bodies. Some people simply rushed to the small river outside the woods and plunged into the water, thus avoiding the pain of burning the fire.
At this time, more than 400 elite cavalry had already rushed to Fengsha, lifting the improved, easy-to-wind crossbow, pointing to the enemy in front.
Feng Sha's eyes were cold and waved his hand and ordered: "Shot arrows at will, be careful not to waste arrows!"
The cavalry pulled the trigger when they heard the sound, aimed carefully, and shot Fangcuo arrows at the Yuan soldiers who were rolling in pain on the ground in front.
The arrows were like locusts, shooting straight towards the enemy. The five hundred elite cavalry under Fengsha’s troops were trained carefully and were familiar with the method of controlling crossbows. The archery technique was accurate. Almost every arrow was shot on the Yuan army soldiers, piercing through armor and deeply penetrated into the enemy’s body. The screams of the sky sounded at the place where the arrow fell, and blood flowed down the arrow shaft, sprinkled onto the flames, making a hissing sound.
There were originally thousands of archers hidden in the forest, led by a trusted general under Yuan Tan's army. At this time, seeing that the enemy had discovered that the fire was about to burn on him, he had no choice but to make a loud order to ask his subordinates to leave the dense forest where the fire broke out and go outside, and drag the enemy troops so that they could join the eldest son to encircle and annihilate the enemy and prevent them from escaping.
The Yuan army soldiers ran out of the forest in chaos, stood in front of the forest, and prepared to shoot arrows at the enemy.
They are all skilled archers, but they are not equipped with the expensive crossbow. Their original intention is to ambush here and catch the enemy off guard. If the enemy enters the dense forest, they hide in the trees and shoot arrows, no matter how brave the enemy is, they will still suffer a great loss and be shot to death.
Unexpectedly, Liu Sha was so clever that he could see through their arrangements and set up rockets to force them out of the forest. The leader General Yuan was shocked and was heartbroken. He didn't know if his remaining soldiers could block his five hundred elite cavalry.
Feng Sha turned around and looked east, watching the smoke and dust that the pursuers behind came up toward this side, and shouted loudly: "Use a crossbow and prepare for charge! Be sure to defeat the enemy as soon as possible and leave the dangerous land!"
The cavalry responded loudly, put down the powerful crossbow that was firing quickly, raised the crossbow hanging on the other side of the horse, slapped the horse, and fired the crossbow in their hands forward, and the rain of arrows attacked the enemy in front.
Five small crossbow arrows had long been loaded in the crossbow box of the continuous crossbow. At this time, under the action of the siege, it flew out quickly and landed on the heads of Yuan soldiers like raindrops.
Screams were roaring all over the sky. The archers had just pulled their bows, but before the enemy entered their range, they were already hit by a head-on attack and fell down one after another.
Immediately afterwards, a huge steel monster rushed towards this side. The man immediately covered his body with thick iron armor, even his face covered with thick iron plates, leaving only a pair of eyes, shining with light. He held a huge heavy Fangtian painting halberd in his hand, and the cold air was shining. The steel monster under his crotch took a big step and rushed over like a tiger going down the mountain. The sound of hooves made the earth shake slightly.
The general of Yuan army was shocked when he saw this and hurriedly ordered his subordinates to shoot arrows to resist.
His archers were dizzy by the enemy's crossbows shooting, with nearly half of them being injured and killed. At his order, he pulled out his bows and shot the scattered arrows at the iron cavalry.
The arrows fell like rain and shot on the sand-sealed armor, but they were easily bounced away and could not penetrate the solid steel plate.
The wild star was shot on the body by arrows. Although it was not injured, it was also fervent. He took big steps and rushed towards the enemy. The distance was not short, and the steel monster rushed into the enemy formation like lightning. With a fierce impact, several soldiers were knocked out, broken bones and broken tendons, and they fell to the ground screaming and desperately died.
The iron hooves stepped down and shattered the bones of a fallen soldier, his internal organs burst out, and the wild star roared and rushed forward, rushing forward. The dispersed archers team were scattered like bowling balls, and they were knocked to the ground, screaming and falling to the ground, all of whom were severely injured.
The soldier a little far away looked at the terrifying iron beast in horror. He was glad that it did not hit it, but suddenly saw the cold light rushing in the air. The huge sharp halberd, like a magic weapon flying from the sky, swept down the wind and slashed heavily on himself, chopping off his arms, and slashing him out of the whole body.
The Yuan army soldiers, who were already unstable in the army, watched the huge monster rushing around the team, and the fierce enemy general waved the heavy halberd like a demon god and smashed it hard on his companion. The huge square painting halberd was waving all over the sky, the cold light was dazzling, and countless comrades were slashed by it. The screams sounded as the blood light splattered, and they were stunned. They couldn't believe that there was such a cruel enemy in the world.
This was just the beginning. Then another strange horse wearing iron armor rushed over. A giant man, with a beard and a thorny body, was bare-handed and holding a pair of black war halberds. Although it was a short halberd, it seemed to be heavier than the ordinary long weapons. He shouted loudly and broke into the Yuan army's soldiers' formation and killed him. Countless archers were smashed into the head by his halberd, and white slurry burst out and died tragically on the ground.
Two powerful generals broke into the enemy and let it go and killed them hard, killing them all over the ground and corpses piled up. Zhang Liao and Xu Huang, wearing heavy armor, also led hundreds of cavalry to rush over, with a huge sword and axe in their hands flashing cold light, slashing heavily on the enemy's head. On the neck, blood was squirting like flying flowers. Yuan's soldiers screamed loudly, fell to the sky, and were then stepped into flesh mud by the chaotic army.
Xiaoman refused to fall behind. He held a strong bow in his hand and ran back and forth outside the military formation. According to Fengsha's continuous arrow technique, he shot sharp arrows at the enemy in the battle formation like lightning. With hard training, her archery technique became more and more accurate. Every time the arrow shot, a Yuan army soldier fell down. At the critical point, the arrow feathers swayed.
Behind, on the cart protected by dozens of cavalrymen, Fan Susu was so scared that she was trembling all over and curled up in the car and didn't dare to look at it. The two ladies in the other car lifted up the curtains and looked at the front from a distance. Although they were scared to death, the two of them were much better than Fan Susu.
Wuliangzhizhu jumped over and smiled and said, "Two sisters-in-law, do you think Sister Murong is very arrogant? She helps the boss so much, so the boss must like her more!"
When the young Mrs. Mi and Mrs. Gan heard this, they looked depressed and said embarrassedly: "We know that we are not as good as Sister Murong. We dare not argue if our uncle said this. Sister Murong is beautiful, capable, and can help the king to fight and kill the enemy. We are absolutely unable to do so."
Wuliangzhiwang smiled and said, "You two sisters-in-law should not belittle yourself. I will read a lot of books, and I will be good at military formations and martial arts in the world. As long as I listen to me, I will definitely make you as powerful as Sister Murong and become the best generals of my great man!"
Mrs. Gan said suspiciously: "Uncle, since ancient times, no woman has ever fought in battle? If this is the case, I'm afraid I'll be laughed at!"
Wuliangzhiwang curled his lips and said, "Why are there no women in battle? Look at the flowers and trees... I mean, Sister Murong, isn't she also a woman? If you lead troops to battle, others will only respect and praise you. It is said that the boss is a hero, and even women can kill the enemy! When it comes to the boss's name, they will definitely be scared to death! Then the boss will take you to fight against the princes in the world, and no one dares to resist?"
He turned around and pointed at Xiaoman and smiled, "As long as you are willing to practice hard, under my guidance, you will definitely be more arrogant than Sister Murong's in the future. The boss will definitely like you more!"
After hearing this, Mi Huan no longer hesitated. He opened his bright eyes, looked at Wuliang Intelligent Brain bravely, and shouted: "Okay, uncle, then teach us martial arts!"
