Three Kingdoms

Chapter 1773 Snowstorm

Snowflakes were flying, as if the clouds in the sky had been broken up and thrown down.

The space between heaven and earth is white, silvery, gray, and all kinds of white. It seems that even the boundary between heaven and earth has disappeared in the flying snowflakes.

The cavalry of the brigade was struggling to advance along the river along the originally surveyed route amid the snow. The war horses exhaled white air and snorted, and the people were like monsters, with a burst of white smoke rising outside the linen covering their mouths and noses.

Except for the crunching of snow and the sound of swishing and dragging, there was basically no one in the entire queue talking. It seemed that all the energy was spent on fighting the wind and snow.

At the beginning, some people would curse Feng Xue from time to time, but as time went by, many people realized that God couldn't hear what the ants-like humans were calling out, so they all shut up, at least for now. You can maintain your strength and prevent the wind and snow from hitting your mouth.

Zhao Yun was basically at the front of the entire queue. On the one hand, he had to look at the direction, and on the other hand, he also needed to observe the movements around him. Although in such weather, he basically would not encounter any Xianbei people, but out of caution, Zhao Yun still Not relaxed at all, with a tall and straight figure, which makes people feel a sense of security.

Like other soldiers, Zhao Yun covered his mouth, nose and eyes with a piece of woolen black gauze. Within the black gauze, his eyes were still calm and sharp, as if nothing could intrude on his thoughts.

Although he had made a lot of preparations and even had some exploration in advance, when he actually started walking, it still didn't feel like marching, but like he was fighting against the heaven and earth, fighting against the wind and snow. However, Zhao Yun also felt a little bit in his heart. I feel that if I can really succeed this time, then every step forward will be a huge growth for myself and all the soldiers behind me. This kind of growth will penetrate into the depths of everyone's soul, precipitate into courage, and transform into combat power.

Sima Yi rode his horse from behind to catch up to the front. Although it was in the wind and snow, he was still polite. He first bowed his hands on the horse, and then said angrily from behind the black veil: "General, the wind and snow are getting stronger now. , do you want to find a place to camp and take shelter first?”

Fortunately, we were walking along the river. Otherwise, with such visibility, it is very likely that we would deviate from the direction and get lost. And if we really lost our way in the desert, the consequences would be unimaginable...

For so many years, only one, Li Guang, was able to not only get lost in the desert, but more interestingly, he could still walk back after getting lost...

Zhao Yun looked back.

Because of the wind and snow, the progress was not very fast. This is even when most of the supplies are transported by sleds. It would be simply unimaginable to rely on horses and manpower as before. Even so, marching in the wind and snow still consumes a lot of people and horses. Even the guard Zuo Er, who was usually the most talkative, is now panting like an old cow.

"How is Zhongda's strength? Can you still hold on?" Zhao Yun looked at Sima Yi and asked with some concern. At first, when Sima Yi first came, Zhao Yun actually didn't take Sima Yi seriously. As for the identity of the Sima family in Wen County, it didn't matter to Zhao Yun. However, as time went by, Zhao Yun began to pay more attention to Sima Yi. My feelings gradually changed.

This is a smart man who can endure hardship and is willing to endure hardship.

Many smart people, or rather smart people, mostly leave the impression on others that they can cheat and cheat in a reasonable and legal way, let others do the hard work, and then do it themselves easily. However, such smart people do not Anyone who likes them, even these smart people who become leaders one day, will also not like people like this.

Sima Yi is smart, but he doesn't show cunning, at least, not yet.

Originally, Sima Yi's riding skills were average, but during these times, Zhao Yun could see that Sima Yi was improving little by little. Now he could let go of his hands, and he could move freely on the horse like a veteran of riding.

Sima Yi cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, General, for your concern. I'm in good physical condition..." This was not because Sima Yi was trying to hold on, but because Sima Yi had stayed in Pingyang for a long time and happened to be in Sima Yi's fortress. This is the period of time when the body is growing. Pingyang's abundant food, especially meat, and Sima Yi himself was not short of money, ultimately made Sima Yi stronger and more durable than in history. After this period of baptism, it was like a The long sword was gradually opened, revealing its sharp brilliance.

Zhao Yun's exposed eyes seemed to contain a smile: "Then let's go a little further!"

Sima Yi was stunned for a moment, then he understood, and he cupped his hands helplessly: "Yes!" Zhao Yun regarded Sima Yi as a threshold valve...

Since a "white-faced scholar" like Sima Yi can still have physical strength, let alone other rough northern soldiers.

Sima Yi shook his head slightly, grabbed his horse, and prepared to return to his original position.

Although it was cold in the wind and snow, Sima Yi's heart was still hot. He knew that the significance of this current action was not only for Xianbei, but also for the entire Han Dynasty's war model.

It is common sense not to use troops in winter. But now this common sense has been broken by General Hussar, Zhao Yun, and himself, so even if they failed to find the location of Ke Bineng's royal court this time, they still succeeded!

When there is an army that can move freely in the winter, whether it is for Xianbei or for other aspects, it is as scary as a giant sword hanging high above the head.

Snow fell all over the sky.

Sima Yi looked up, and the snowflakes fell softly on his face, but it could not calm the surging mood in his heart...

Suddenly, three scouts came with broken jade and a hole in the hazy scenery in the distance!

There seemed to be some noise, but there seemed to be no sound at all. Sima Yi suddenly heard his heart beating violently. It seemed that a thick smell of blood began to spread among the army, causing Sima Yi to feel all over his body. Han Mao stood up in excitement. He suddenly turned his head and looked around, only to find that the soldiers around him, who had lowered their heads and looked like they were listless, were now like ferocious beasts. They opened their eyes and showed bloodthirsty smiles!

……(╬ ̄俣)……

The snow stopped and everything was pure white.

Suddenly, a human head flew up in the air, bringing out a stream of blood that burned the white snow. It was shockingly bright and destroyed the overall purity.

Zhao Yun led his soldiers and penetrated the unsuspecting Xianbei tribe with just one charge. The Xianbei people, who were enduring the snowstorm, never expected that anyone would come out of the snowstorm, let alone organized resistance. They were almost helpless to fight back and were completely suppressed.

Some Xianbei people ran out of various tents shouting, some raised their bows to shoot, and some held spears with the intention of blocking and killing. However, the scattered attacks could not form a joint force, and secondly, the hussar soldiers The weapons and armor are very sharp, and ordinary attacks cannot cause much damage.

Except for a few unlucky ones, the horses fell off their horses because they didn't know whether they were tripped or hit. However, what is interesting is that if the weather is normal, these unlucky ghosts are probably not dead or half disabled, but now there is a thick layer of snow on the ground. After falling, most of them are still swaying and can stand up again...

Zhao Yun lightly kicked the war horse and charged away in front of the resisting Xianbei people. The spear rolled up, as if even the remaining snow on the snow was being lifted up. It roared in the cold air and immediately killed three people. Xianbei was swept down and a Xianbei man directly in front was knocked high into the air!

Another Xianbei shouted and ran towards Zhao Yun. Before he could stab the spear in his hand, he was swept away by Zhao Yun with a fierce shot, hitting him hard on the waist and ribs. Through the leather robe, he saw The Xianbei man's waist and ribs suddenly collapsed. His feet left the ground and he fell to one side. He vomited out a large mouthful of blood, along with some fine pieces of flesh and blood.

Blood spurted into the air and then fell on the snow, corroding the originally flat surface into bright red scars. The heat only rose to halfway, and then it was frozen, forming blood-red ice. The face reflects the frightening cold light in the hands of the Han cavalry.

After Zhao Yun overcame the small-scale resistance of the Xianbei people, he pulled out the reins of the war horse and let the horse recover its strength. The soldiers following Zhao Yun naturally divided into two parts, like evil dragons from the left and right. It passed Zhao Yun and roared towards both sides of the Xianbei camp!

One side has elite soldiers and horses, strong armor, and a sudden attack, while the other side is unprepared and does not have good armor and weapons. The victory or defeat of both sides has become a foregone conclusion, but it is just a matter of time.

Sima Yi stood behind with his sword in hand, wondering if he could rush up, catch two and kill one, but the reason in his heart still let him control the reins. After all, it seemed easy for others to do it, so he really did it It may not be easy. Although I now say that my riding skills are quite passable, there is still a gap between me and these hussars soldiers who are as good on horseback as they are on the ground.

The guards beside Sima Yi seemed to be aware of Sima Yi's impulsive thoughts, so they tried to dissuade him: "Young Master, it's better to stay here... If your hands are really itchy, I'll catch two Xianbei dogs..."

Sima Yi pondered for a moment, shook his head, looked at the battlefield again, and said, "No need. I'm just just in case..." Although he said that he couldn't go into battle in person, which somewhat shattered his little idea of ​​being unparalleled on the battlefield, Sima Yi still It's important to be able to distinguish those. As for letting the guards kidnap Xianbei people to satisfy their desire to kill, forget it, I won't be reduced to this.

The Xianbei people were obviously in chaos and panic. Some were resisting, others were crying out loud, and some even knelt down in the snow and buried their heads on the ground...

It's a bit pitiful and a bit regretful, but it can only be blamed on you being born in the wrong place.

If you have an afterlife, remember to be Han Chinese.

"Send people to patrol the surrounding areas, and ignore those who escape on foot! If there are people driving horses, shoot them first!" Sima Yi turned around and ordered. In this kind of weather, without the help of war horses and supplies and equipment, even if you escape, you will not be able to reach the next Xianbei camp!

The soldiers behind him took the order, whistled, and led twenty or thirty people towards both sides of the camp.

The battle in the Xianbei camp was coming to an end. As the leader of the Xianbei camp was knocked down, the resistance of the entire Xianbei camp completely collapsed and disappeared, leaving only the wailing of the ground.

Zhao Yun sat on the horse, looked at the Xianbei leader who was coughing up blood, and said: "You will not survive... But you still have tribal men, and these old and weak women and children... After all, where is the next camp? If you tell me honestly, after we find the next camp, all of you, the young and the old, can still survive...what? I’m pretty good at learning Xianbei dialect, right?"

"Han dog..." The Xianbei leader seemed to have suffered multiple wounds to his chest and abdomen, and blood was seeping out of his mouth and nose. However, he still did not scream in pain. He just stared at Zhao Yun and coughed several times before continuing. Said, "Ahem...who are you?"

"A certain person, Chang Shan, Zhao Zilong." Zhao Yun said, "You don't have much time... Come out honestly, and I will give you a treat! If you, the young and old in the tribe, can find the location of the next tribe, I will Guaranteed, they can still live! If they can't find it... Haha... However, if you don't want to say it, it doesn't really matter, because in fact, we also know the general direction! It depends on whether you want to be in your tribe People who want to survive... just say it!"

"Ahem..." The Xianbei leader coughed up some more clots of blood and gasped, "Han dog... Haha, ahem, are you going to the next camp... Facing the direction of the rising sun, turn to the left about One arm, two and a half days away...go and die..."

The Xianbei leader grunted and coughed up the next curse mixed with blood.

After saying that, the Xianbei leader closed his eyes and waited for death. He did not ask Zhao Yun to swear an oath or anything, because normal people know that oaths are meant to be broken. When they are on opposite sides, they still believe in the oaths of the other party. He's simply as stupid as a pig.

Zhao Yun nodded, dismounted from his horse, walked up to the Xianbei leader, then pulled the Xianbei leader to kneel and sit up, pressed him on his shoulder, nodded slightly to signal to the Xianbei leader, and immediately pulled out the sword from his waist. , cut it down with one knife!

The head flew up, and the headless body rolled down into the snow, staining a large area red.

Zhao Yun shook off the blood on his sword and issued a series of orders: "Order the scouts to go to the northeast to investigate! Order Sima Zhongda to come and count and distribute the supplies! Gather these Xianbei together and take care of them! The rest will be repaired on the spot! Set off tomorrow!"
