Lei Yuan slightly pulled his horse, made the road open, turned to Ma Dai and shouted: "Your troops enter the city first! Don't delay!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he could hear the soldiers everywhere in the city screaming and shouting wildly.
Lei Yuan felt the ground trembling, and the bricks and stones all over the ground were trembling, and even the armor leaves on his body jumped and collided involuntarily. As a very experienced warrior, Lei Yuan immediately understood that it was the sound of millions of iron hooves stomping on the ground, and it was not an ordinary light cavalry, but from the tall horse carrying the armored knight!
Lei Yuan looked back and saw countless black-armored knights approaching about three hundred steps away from him, as if the black tide was flooding the earth.
Lei Yuan noticed that the general who stood out among the black armored knights saw the fluttering red tail feather dotted on the necklace!
That's Zhang Liao.
Just now, Jiangling South Gate changed hands, and everyone on the entire battlefield was panicked, so Zhang Liao slightly changed the direction of the cavalry and planned to block Lei Yuan's evacuation route to the west. But he did not expect that Lei Yuan did not retreat but advanced under this situation, so he was thrown away some distance.
Zhang Liao then turned around and rushed forward, and he was like a beast on the grassland chasing his prey persistently. Finally, at this time, he chased after him!
Lei Yuan remembered that he should have many accounts to calculate with Zhang Liao. He had thought about it many times, and he had thought about it when he was dreaming. Unfortunately, this is not a good time to settle the accounts.
The black armored cavalry rushed forward.
A group of knights who fell to the last side tried their best to resist, but the team of 200 people was almost instantly swallowed up by the tide, and it didn't even have a slight obstacle.
The Cao army cavalry team continued to get closer, and there were many good players in the cavalry who could draw bows and arrows on horseback, and the arrows were even more like locusts. The knights around Lei Yuan were shot down in an instant.
An arrow flew from a distance, drew an arc from the air, hit Lei Yuan's armor on his shoulder, smashed a small pit, and then bounced away. Then several arrows flew towards Lei Yuan in a row. Lei Yuan drew his sword to block the left and right, blocking two, but his thighs were slightly painful and he was already hit.
Lei Yuan pulled out the knife and cut off the arrow shaft exposed outside. With his movements, blood came out of the wound and soaked the metal armor leaves hotly.
A entourage immediately pulled his horse forward to cover it, but just as soon as he rode out, he was hit by a straight arrow in his chest. He died instantly, his body began to tilt to the right, and the reins in his hand began to pull to the right. This caused his war horse to piss off and then ran away regardless of it.
The other entourages immediately took up his position and raised their shields to fight a rain of arrows.
Li Zhen held an arrow with his fingers and shot out one that had already been on the string. The arrow flew out like silver thread and shot the war horse of a Cao army knight. He landed another arrow and was about to shoot the arrow. Unexpectedly, a wandering arrow flew over and hit Li Zhen's shoulder. Li Zhen's horn bow was out of hand, and he pulled the horse back and retreated quickly.
The Cao army's cavalry came too fast.
Lei Yuan looked back and saw that Ma Dai's troops had already gone to the city for two or three hundred cavalry.
Ma Dai himself was calling for command, but the city gate still couldn't be fully opened. Even though many soldiers guarding the city were moving the earth and rocks wildly, there was still only a gap of about three feet between the two doors, allowing only knights to enter one after another.
This led to Liu Qi and his more than a hundred subordinates patrolling and waiting near the city gate.
"Liu Qi!" Lei Yuan called out.
"exist!"
"Go and stop the enemy!" Lei Yuan issued a deep order.
This brave cavalry general was once a subordinate of Yu Fuluo, the right wise king of the Huns. Later, Yu Fuluo joined forces with the remnants of the Black Mountain Army to assist Yuan Shu and sent troops to Kuangting with Yuan's army, and was later defeated by Cao Cao. After this battle, Liu Qi was recruited by Deng Tong and was appointed as the Lei clan tribe in Lujiang. It has been 24 years since then.
Although he lacks the opportunity to be promoted because of his rudeness and lack of literary talent, he always stays at the level of a small officer who leads hundreds of cavalry, Lei Yuan has always regarded it as his most reliable subordinate.
The same is true at this moment.
Liu Qi slammed his heel on the horse's belly and shouted: "Brothers, come with me!"
More than a hundred cavalry left the team like sharp arrows and rushed towards the team that was being overwhelmed by the enemy.
The cavalry hedged, making waves of impact sounds, and blood lights rose and fell one after another. The black waves stumbled a little again, and then Liu Qi and his companions could not see it either.
At this time, the city gate was opened a little wider, allowing the two to enter side by side.
Ma Dai stood by the door and shouted loudly: "Hurry! Hurry!"
Li Zhen shouted: "General!"
Lei Yuan stopped his horse and said, "Jisi entered the city as soon as possible. Hanzhang also went with my flag."
Huo Cun glanced at Lei Yuan deeply, and his subordinates immediately urged his horse to rush towards the city gate.
Li Zhen shouted twice in a manic manner, protecting Lei Yuan to evacuate the flag backwards.
At this time, the cavalry of Cao's army had already passed Liu Qi's troops and almost rushed to Lei Yuan, only more than a hundred steps away from the half-open city gate.
"Wang Yue, go." Lei Yuan said.
Wang Yue responded and urged the horse to lead more than ten entourages forward to stop him.
As the entourage of the general and Lei Yuan's daily assistant, these more than ten people themselves and the relatives of the clan behind them have all kinds of unspeakable benefits. However, in troubled times, since they are the entourage of the general, they have to travel to the sea of ​​swords and fire for the general at critical moments without any discussion.
At present, these entourages rely on their exquisite armor and sharp weapons. They tangled with the enemy regardless of life and death, and slashed the enemy wildly.
But the subsequent Cao's cavalry bypassed both sides from both sides and attacked directly in the direction where Lei Yuan was.
A knight rushed in front, and was about to fight Lei Yuan with a white blade. Chi Li Ningta rushed over with a loud roar, waving the iron halberd in his hand and smashing it on the head of the war horse. He heard a snap of the bones, and the blow actually broke the skull of the war horse.
The front legs of the war horse weakened and fell to the ground, throwing the knight in front of Chi Li Ningta.
Chi Li Ningta fell down again, and the sound of the bone breaking that broke out became more subtle, accompanied by a large amount of blood splash.
As the two halberds fell, someone swung his knife to cut Chi Li Ningta's helmet. Fortunately, his helmet was particularly thick and heavier, and it was not broken, and he was only staggering a few steps.
At this time, both sides sacrificed their lives to fight under the city. At this time, the defenders at the city also gathered together. They shouted loudly and smashed down the flying stones and other objects prepared in advance in order to slightly stop the enemy.
After all, the power of flying stones and other objects was huge. Several Cao army horses whine and rolled. There were many ruins of houses in the old city of Jiangling, and the cavalry could not roam as casually as they were on the field. As soon as these several war horses fell, they immediately blocked two or three roads. The Cao army's momentum was indeed a little slow.
But that was just a little slowed down!
The Cao army cavalry either killed horses or hit the horses and rushed over again!
Huo Cun's cavalry had all entered the city, leaving only Lei Yuan and a small number of entourages outside.
Lei Yuan drove his horse away.
Ma Dai leaned out from the entrance of the city gate and shouted: "Hurry! Hurry! Hurry!"
Dozens of Jiangling defenders holding swords and shields rushed out from behind the city gate to form a formation, shouting to the officer who looked like a Dub, "Go into the city quickly!"
They all made up their minds to buy time for Lei Yuan with their lives!
Lei Yuan rode his horse straight into the door, followed by Chi Li Ningta and the remaining entourages. Many soldiers who were already ready behind the door immediately shouted horns and pushed the heavy door with all their strength.
The door slowly closed, and the roar of the iron cavalry of Cao's army was slowly isolated.
The crack in the door became smaller and smaller, and half of the Jiangling defenders who were going out to cover the door came back one after another. Uncle Du was stabbed twice, but somehow, Wang Yue, covered in blood, was dragged back by him.
The city gate immediately closed. The soldiers behind began to pile up soil and stones behind the gate and closed the city gate.
The defenders on the city shouted loudly and demonstrated to Zhang Liao's troops who retreated disappointed.
Li Zhen rushed towards Wang Yue with a big laugh: "Haha, Shu Wang, you're fine!"
Wang Yue spitted bloody saliva: "How could I have something wrong? I'm not dead!"
The next moment, he lost his breath. His arms drooped, revealing a terrifying huge wound between his chest and abdomen. The internal organs of various colors were driven by blood and flowed out of the wound.
Li Zhen shouted angrily and stamped his feet repeatedly.
Chapter completed!
