Chongzhen Chat Group

Upon hearing this, the surrounding officers and soldiers all smiled kindly. Mr. Zhongcheng was indeed qualified to say this.

None of them were nervous. Looking at that tall figure, they felt very at ease. He raised his head and looked into the distance, waiting for Jianlu to come up and die!

They could spot Jianlu, and Jianlu naturally saw them. Mang Gurtai gave the order. Immediately, many of the Jianlu who had been exhausted after chasing them seemed to have been pumped. They no longer retained their horsepower, urged their horses, slowly surpassed their companions, and fought bravely to take the lead. , just to make the first contribution to holding back the Dongjiang Cavalry.

Not long after, fifty or sixty Jianlu were seen surpassing the large army, and the distance between them was getting farther and farther, while the distance between them and the Dongjiang Cavalry was getting closer and closer. Each of them was even more excited, as if they had achieved the first success after seeing it.

Slowly, getting closer, getting closer. When they were within a stone's throw, both sides began to prepare. After a while, a volley of bows and crossbows was heard, and the sound of "bang bang bang bang" kept ringing.

The crossbow is stepped on with your feet in advance. It is very powerful and can shoot from a long distance when held up. The soldiers were ordered by Lu Xiangsheng to shoot horses but not people. Lu Xiangsheng himself started to use his continuous arrow technique again. When others shot one arrow, he had already shot three arrows.

The Ming army also took advantage here, that is, they were fleeing and Jianlu was chasing them. For the Ming army, the arrows they shot were going in the same direction, but for Jianlu, they were going in the opposite direction. The speed of the arrow is equivalent to adding the speed of the horse.

Therefore, when arrows hit the Ming army, they often only hung on the leather armor and could not even penetrate the leather armor. But once Jianlu was hit by an arrow, there would be a "pop" sound and the man would fall over. What's more, with Lu Xiangsheng, the god of arrows, he knocked down more than ten horses in just a moment. The remaining Jianlu were obviously frightened, and their speed slowed down, and they were further distanced by the Ming army.

Seeing this situation, Mang Gurtai in the distance was so angry that he really wanted to kill them. He shouted loudly, urging the troops to go faster.

More than a quarter of an hour later, the distance between the two sides narrowed again. When Mang Gurtai saw it, a smile finally appeared on his furious face. As long as the Dongjiang Ming army is intercepted, haha, let's see what Huang Taiji says!

However, before he could feel more proud, he saw dust flying in the distance and countless black spots rolling in.

"That slave can see clearly which flag it is? He actually jumped in front of Ming Gou!" Mang Gurtai was very dissatisfied and shouted loudly to his surrounding men.

His men were also curious and stared into the distance. After a while, the subordinate who had seen it suddenly replied loudly and a little uncertainly: "Master, that seems... it seems to be the Ming army!"

"What?" Mang Gurtai opened his eyes wide and didn't believe it at all, "How is that possible!"

At this time, the distance is a little closer. Unless you are color blind, you can see the cavalry rolling in the distance, like a fiery red cloud coming from the horizon. The Ming army wears red shirts, and only the Ming army wears this color.

Seeing that they were about to catch up with the Dongjiang Cavalry, another group of Ming troops appeared out of nowhere, and looking at the number, they seemed to be much larger than their own. At this moment, if Mang Gurtai knew about Cao Mu Ma, it would be estimated that 10,000 of them would have passed through his heart.

Under this situation, Mang Gurtai was really unwilling to rest assured. When he saw the team slowing down, he shouted loudly and prepared to fight. Dajin warriors are invincible in the field!

Getting closer again, the sharp-eyed Jianlu suddenly shouted: "That's Guan Ning's cavalry. The big flag in front has the word 'Cao' on it. It's... it's Guan Ning Cao Wenzhao!"

Upon hearing this, Mang Gurtai looked carefully. Sure enough, the cavalry in the distance was about to meet the Dongjiang cavalry. There was a big flag fluttering in the wind with the word "Cao" on it.

"What's going on? Then why did Cao Wenzhao appear here with the Guan Ning Cavalry?" Mang Gurtai was about to go berserk. "Did they have a premeditated plan and sent the Guan Ning Cavalry to meet the Dongjiang Cavalry? of?"

Just a few days ago, Mang Gurtai had repeatedly fought against Guan Ning's army, and he also knew that among Guan Ning's army, the most capable one was actually Cao Wenzhao. We were really enemies on a narrow road, and we met Cao Wenzhao again at such an important juncture.

He was thinking that the Ming Army had received the Dongjiang Cavalry, but instead of stopping, they continued to gallop forward, as if they wanted the cavalry to counterattack and fight.

In just a moment, the two sides got closer. Mang Gurtai could vaguely see that all the Guan Ning cavalry seemed to be in good spirits. They were obviously waiting for work and were not in any hurry.

He turned to look at his men, only to find that they all looked tired, and even the horses under their crotches were kicking heavily, as if they would fall to their knees from exhaustion in the next moment.

In such a situation, if they bully the Dongjiang Cavalry who are also exhausted, they can still fight even if they don't rely on large numbers of people. But now the Guan Ning cavalry on the opposite side is waiting for work. The number is far more than that on our side. How can we fight such a battle? Do we want the entire army to be annihilated here?

Mang Gurtai has been on the battlefield for many years, so he can naturally know the possible outcome of the battle between the two sides at a glance. No matter how unwilling he was, he couldn't bite the bullet, shout that Daikin was invincible in the field, and then rush over to die!

At the command, Mang Gurtai's flagpole pointed diagonally, and the army began to turn and flee diagonally into the depths of the grassland.

In front of Guan Ning's cavalry, under the banner with the word "Cao", Cao Wenzhao held a bright silver spear in one hand and a rein in the other. He felt a little regretful as he watched Jian Lu escape, and then ordered the army to stop the pursuit. His mission is to respond to the Dongjiang Cavalry. This is what the emperor personally told him and he will contact him at any time. He dare not violate it.

The army began to return and caught up with the Dongjiang Cavalry again. Cao Wenzhao had already prepared his spear, clasped his fists with both hands, and respectfully said with admiration: "General Cao Wenzhao, by the emperor's decree, Sun Ge I have ordered you to come and meet Master Zhongcheng!"

Lu Xiangsheng had already known where Cao Wenzhao was coming to meet them through Wei Mulan's message before. Therefore, he was not worried at all about the Jianlu appearing in the rear.

After hearing Cao Wenzhao's words at this time, Lu Xiangsheng laughed and said: "Thanks to General Cao for arriving in time, otherwise we would be in trouble!"

After finishing speaking, he turned to the other side of the carriage and said: "Report to the Emperor that we have joined forces with General Cao and everything is going well, so that the Emperor can rest assured!"

Wang Liu fell behind and did not charge with the army. The only one who could convey the good news to the emperor at this time was Wei Mulan in the carriage.

Thanks for the endless reward!
